The XHF Rumble for #1 Contendership for The XHF World Heavyweight
Championship
*The banner zooms away as pyros explode from the special XHF Rumble stage*
Ray Usher: Welcome to The XHFs Rumble!
*The familiar sound of "My Way" starts up as the arena goes dark. The Xtreme-Tron looks as if a hole is being burned through it. The burned outline forms a shape, the shape of a bird, suddenly, the entire area of the "bird" lights up with flames, a phoenix. The letters "XHF" fall onto the phoenix as the flames continue on. The song continues as a black bird image emblazoned with "XHF" is projected onto the ring mat. The letters "H" and "F" are projected onto the ramp way. Suddenly, two white flares fire from either side of the entranceway, they cross forming an "X". As they sparkle and fizz, Mongo walks out, under the large "X" above him. He is wearing his Without Remorse Wrestling Federation Phoenix Championship around his waist as he walks down the ramp proudly, acknowledging the fans as he goes.*
Jerry "The King" Lawler: And here comes Mongo!
Mongo: Hey hey guys, are we ready for one hell of a show!
Ray: You better believe it!
*The Xtreme-Tron lights up with a number 5 in the center. The countdown begins as a piano picks up over the PA and begins to play. The countdown reaches 0 and everything goes black as the music stops. A few minutes later, the pyro explodes from the ramp in blue and silver form. The guitar riffs and drums have now resumed as "Get Me Through" by Ozzy Osbourne is now playing and Millennium is at the top of the ramp, back to the crowd. He extends his left arm on which the PCW Primetime Title is resting, followed by his right arm. He follows with a spinning taunt down the ramp, during which he raises the title above his head and flaunts it. He finishes spinning and begins to walk down the ramp, the fans booing him the whole way. He climbs the steps and gets on the aprons, where he performs the signature Lionheart steps. He then raises the titles in the air and enters the ring, spins around to the boos, then climbs out of the ring and heads for the commentators table.*
Ray Usher: What the fuck?
Millennium: Nice to see you too Ray
Ray: Seriously Mongo, what the hell is this?
Mongo: Im not really to happy about it either, but being hes under somewhat of a contract this is free, I wouldnt have gotten him but Mr. Perfect cancelled for some reason
*The lights go out and spot lights circle around the arena. They then shut out and one spotlight goes over in the center of the ring. A pyro missile shots from the top of the arena and down at the Xtreme Tron. Big bursts of pyros blow up out of the Xtreme Tron. "Bombshell" by Powerman 5000 plays over the PA System. Out walks Lo Ki and Johnny "The Bull" Stamboli and gets the crowd excited. The two dudes walk down to the ring and taunt the crowd for some more cheers. Flames shoot up from behind them on the ramp and on the stage of the Xtreme Tron. They shoot up from the turnbuckles randomly. They roll into the ring and taunt the crowd. They jump off the turnbuckles and talk to each other as Stamboli takes his Hat and Necklace off and hands them to the ref to put somewhere. *
Ray: The fans are really loving these guys!
King: At least somebody is!
*"The Energy" by Audiovent slowly plays over the PA system, as an explosion bursts out of nowhere. The vocals kick in and from behind the curtain The Chris and Chris Connection walk out, looking at the crowd on either side of them. They walk down the ramp where Williams stops at the middle, and Adams waits at the bottom. Williams spins around to show off the back of his shiny jacket, then strutting down the ramp as both members slide under the bottom rope. Williams jumps to the top rope and sticks his arms out, then jumping back down as he removes his jacket, as the music dies down and C and C prepare for their match.*
King: Did you catch Chris Williams babysitting?
Ray: Yeahgreat role model there
King: Your damn right!
*Suddenly inside the arena, all the lights dim as the daunting tune of "Liberate" by Disturbed hits the PA! Then, as it's opening chords reverberate throughout the arena and the chorus of the song begins, a gold spotlight falls upon the top of the stage where just then the sadistic figures of Kinetic themselves, Fury, Venom, & Tracy Brooks appear! Then, as the spotlight on them fades away and the song continues in the background, they all strut on down the ramp to a HUGE chorus of cheers from the crowd, and once reaching the bottom of the ramp, all 3 climb right up onto the ring apron and after then stepping on through the ropes and into the ring, both Fury & Venom set off to nearby turnbuckles to taunt off to the crowd, while in the meantime Tracy goes to lean over near the ropes as she proceeds to pump this entire sellout crowd up in her own manner. Then, after finishing these routine taunts of theirs, both Kinetic members climb down from the turnbuckles and proceed to, while Tracy exits the ring, lean up against them as they await the bell to ring and the match to start.*
Ray: Folks, your in for a match here tonight, and then it will be followed by the rest of the card, which will also be awsome
Mongo: What the hell was that?
Ray: A joke
Mongo: I dont get it

King: Booya!
*The opening riffs of "Born With Nothing, Die With Everything" by Papa Roach hits the NAFW-Tron, as the crowd turns to complete and solid boos. Diamond's NAFW-Tron begins playing, showing clips from him nailing Goldberg with a chair, to a clip of him defeating Psyko Stevo as Wraith. It flashes through many shots of himself as the song plays. The video stops, and blackness covers the arena. Blue strobes of light begin flashing up and down the ramp, and then begin to circle the crowd. Finally they all come from the crowd, and converge on the entrance way, where Diamond now stands, head down. Diamond began making a few punches at the air, and then finally stretched his hands out in a T position. He then finally brought his fists together, cracking his knuckles. He finally walks down towards the ring. He then slides into the ring, and climbs to the top rope, making the same position. He then throws one hand up in the air, and the crowd responds with boos. He chuckles, however, and jumps down from the ramp, as the song dies out.*
Mongo: And here comes Diamond
*The lights in the arena go out and than a silver stop watch appears on the Xtreme Tron. Its starts ticking down as the background starts to get more and more violent with electric bolts. Than the stopwatch reaches zero and it explodes on the screen. All the lights are out and camera flashes flash through out the arena. Suddenly BOOM!!! A huge flaming pyro erupts over the stage dwarfing the Xtreme Tron. "Everyone" by Adema plays and out comes Goldberg all rallied up and ready to fight. He jumps around on the stage rallying the crowd up. Shady walks out behind him taunting the crowd too. They walk down to the ring and Goldberg continually taunts the crowd. Goldberg helps Shady into the ring and slides in himself. Goldberg climbs a turnbuckle and taunts the crowd while Shady poses near the ropes next to him. Goldberg jumps off, and kisses Shady on the lips. Shady then leaves the ring while Goldberg tests the ropes.*
Mongo: The long awaited bout for the Phoenix Championship has finally arrived
King: Goldberg just pinned Diamond the other night in that tag matchwhat makes him think he cant do it again tonight?
Millennium: Well find out King
XHF Phoenix Championship
Diamond -Vs- Goldberg
*Diamond reluctantly enters the ring as Goldberg stands in the corner signaling for Diamond to "bring it". The ref finally forces Diamond into the ring and Goldberg begins to circle like a blood thirsty vulture waiting to devour its prey. Diamond finally locks up with Goldberg with a front face lock but Goldberg over powers him sending him to the corner and driving into his sternum with a few brutal shoulder thrusts. Goldberg backs off as Diamond loses his footing and collapses to the mat, Goldberg walks around laughing at the fallen Diamond and taunting him to get back to his feet. Diamond finally climbs back to his feet and puts his hand out challenging Goldberg to another test of strength*
Millennium: What is he crazy?
King: Goldberg will kill you Diamond!
*Goldberg gets a smirk on his face and just as he and Diamond are about to touch hands Diamond unleashes a boot to Goldbergs crotch and takes the big man down to his knees, Diamond quickly runs to the ropes and bounces back with a dropkick to Goldbergs head taking him down to the mat, Diamond begins dropping elbows onto the challengers sternum and then flips him over and locks in a camel clutch putting extreme amounts of pressure onto the weak sternum of the big man. Goldberg refuses to tap out so Diamond releases the hold and continues to drop more elbows but this time onto Goldbergs lower back.*
Millennium: Sheesh he just doesnt give up does he?
King: Well if you EVER held a title in your life Millennium you would understand all of this
Millennium: I did hold a title!
King: Not those plastic ones at home, real ones!
*Diamond lifts Goldberg to his feet and flips him over with a snap suplex. He rolls through and lifts him up and drops him down this time with a stalling suplex. He then rolls through again and lifts him up, spins around and then spikes him down into the mat with a brutal brain buster!*
Ray: Well that looks a little familiar
*Diamond floats over and hooks the leg but only gets a two count. He lifts Goldberg to his feet but the big man fires back with a few shots to Diamonds mid section and then powers him up and slams him down with a last minute Sledge Hammer! Both men lay on the mat unable to move a muscle as both have been taken to their limit. Diamond finally stirs on the mat a bit before reaching up and grabbing his head in pain as Goldberg slowly but surely makes his way to his feet. Goldberg gets up and climbs to the top rope. Diamond using the ropes for leverage finally gets to his feet but Goldberg takes flight and nails the dazed Diamond with a missile dropkick!*
Ray: Where in the hell did that come from?!
King: The top rope?
*Goldberg quickly gets to his feet bringing the champion with him. Goldberg powers Diamond up onto his shoulders and yells out, "Extreme Edge!" Goldberg spins around and tosses Diamond out but he lands on his feet. Diamond kicks Goldberg in the gut and spikes him with a desperation DDT!*
Mongo: Neither of these men can put one another away
King: I know both men just want to kill each other but just cant seem to figure out how to do just that
*Diamond quickly gets to his feet and climbs the top rope. He sits for a few seconds collecting his thoughts and then takes flight crashing down hard on NOTHING but mat with the Air Diamond! Goldberg who moved out of the way stands perched in the turnbuckle waiting for Diamond to get to his feet. Just as he does Goldberg charges at him and takes him down hard with a thundering Cruise Missile! Goldberg gets to his feet and signals to the crowd that "thats it" as he climbs the turnbuckle. Goldberg looks out at the crowd really quick and then takes flight looking for the Leap of Faith, but he sees the same fate as Diamond when he crashes down hard in the spot Diamond was supposed to be in. Goldberg rolls around on the ground holding his mid section as Diamond moves in for the kill. He climbs the top rope and waits for Goldberg to get to his feet*
Millennium: I dont know what hes trying here but its not gonna be pretty
King: Oh shut up and let the man work!
*Goldberg finally climbs to his feet and Diamond takes flight. He grabs Goldbergs head in mid-air and takes him down to the mat with the Diamond Cutter! Diamond hooks the leg, 1 2 Diamond pulls out of the pin!*
King: What in the hell are you doing?!
Mongo: Thats the cockiness getting to Diamond. Im telling you its gonna bite him in the ass one of these days
*Diamond lifts Goldberg to his feet while signaling for another Diamond Cutter. Diamond turns quickly and locks on the face lock but before he can drop Goldberg shoves him into the turnbuckle. Goldberg kicks Diamond in the gut and attempts the stunner but Diamond pushes Goldberg away. Goldberg attempts a clothesline but Diamond ducks under and tries for another Diamond Cutter but Goldberg shoves him off again, Goldberg grabs Diamond for a belly to belly but Diamond rakes his eyes and attempts a springboard moonsault. Goldberg catches Diamond on his shoulder and then tosses him up in the air and catches him in the Samoan drop position. Goldberg spins around and tosses Diamond out connecting with the Extreme Edge! Goldberg hooks the leg, 1 2 3!*
Mongo: We have a new Phoenix champion!
King: Well that really sucks
*"Everyone" hits the PA as Goldberg is handed his newly one XHF Phoenix Championship much to Diamonds dismay, Goldberg celebrates with the belt in the ring as Diamond makes his way out of the ring and up the ramp cursing at himself and swinging his arms in anger with what just happened*
Winner and New XHF Phoenix Champion: Goldberg
Mongo: He really wanted this, and now he has it
"Speculum" by Adema hits the PA and Lance Storm emerges from behind the curtain, with the Canadian Heavyweight Championship around his waist and holds his arms up in the air at the top of the ramp to a huge chorus of boo's. Dawn Marie then slides out from behind him carrying the Canadian flag, she stands beside him rubbing up against him with her hand on the title. He then walks to a corner of the stage and begins stretching as his music dies down.
King: Look! Lance has got a microphone!
Ray: God damnit
Lance Storm: If I can be serious for a minute
*Boos*
Storm: Its not surprising that a lower state in the UnUnited States of America cannot allow myself to speak, however, I shall be gracing you with my match tonight although it is greatly undeserved. Now show some respect and rise for the playing of the Canadian National Anthem
*The crowd boos as the Canadian National Anthem starts to play, suddenly the Lights go out as Demise of Sanity by Black Label Society hits, followed up by a lightning bolts that hit the top of the stage, Apollyon appears and slowly makes his way to the ring.*
Mongo: Thank god for that interruption!
Submission Lion's Den Match for the Canadian Heavyweight Championship
Lance Storm -Vs- Apollyon
*Before Apollyon can even get off the stage Lance Storm comes from behind and chucks him off the stage, into the steel mesh of the den below! The music stops and the arena is completely silent as Storm stands over Apollyon at the top of the stage, starring down at Apollyon below. Apollyon is completely motionless as emergency crews rush out onto the scene. Lance Storm begins to walk down the ramp but instead of going to the den, he goes out to ring area. Lance Storm pulls out a shopping cart from the side of the ramp and drags it down to ringside. He lifts up the apron and begins pulling things out from under the ring and putting them into the cart. He leaves the cart still for a moment while medical attention is still being given to a motionless Apollyon as Storm goes around to the other side of the ring and grabs not one, not two, but three steel chairs. Lance Storm, normally using speed and technical abilities is looking to take things to a whole other level.*
Mongo: It looks like things are going to go to a new level!
*Apollyon is brought to his feet by medical attention as they attempt to get him backstage when Apollyon begins to shove them all off! Lance Storm is now coming over towards then den with the cart and the chairs. He puts the cart into the den as Apollyon, unable to stand falls down to one knee. Storm leaves two of the three chairs in the den before coming out with the third. Apollyon, still trying to stand, finally does but when he turns around to face Storm, he gets the chair cracked over his skull! Apollyon lays motionless on the concrete, blood pouring from his forehead and the match hasnt even started yet! The officials and medical crew again rush in after Apollyon but Storm shoves them all off and drags Apollyon by his feet into the lions den. He closes the door behind him and begins to wrap a chain from inside the cart around the door of the den! Storm locks the door shut and the official cant get in. Storm then begins to taunt the official, every now and then delivering a kick to the back of the head of Apollyon. Finally the official begins to climb the den and come in through the top. Just before entering he orders the tike keeper to ring the bell and the match is actually being allowed to begin after such a brutal beginning. Storm picks up Apollyon and lays him against the den where he begins to taunt Apollyon and get right up into his face. Apollyon is such a bloodied mess, he is hardly able to see. But seemingly out of desperation Apollyon hits Storm with a knee to the gut and tosses him head first into the side of the den! As Storm falls to the mat, and begins to crawl around on his knees, Apollyon is seemingly out on his feet, leaning against the den walls, but the move bought him some time. *
Ray: This match is brutal!
*Storm struggles to his feet but uses the cart to help him up. When he gets to his feet, he pulls out a trash can lid. He moves over to where Apollyon is and takes a swing at his head but Apollyon rolls to his right and moves out of the way, turning back around and again pounding the head of storm into the steel! Storm staggers backward and another desperation move comes from Apollyon as he connect with a Kick to Hell on Lance Storm! Both men fall to the floor after that one, but Apollyon is miraculously the first one to his feet! Apollyon knocks over the shopping cart, spilling out all the toys and picking up the cart. Lance Storm is attempting to get to his knees on the other side, using the den walls for leverage but Apollyon just tosses the cart, smacking against the back of Apollyons head, knocking Storms into the steel as well! The evidence of the impact is left in Storm forehead as he joins Apollyon in spilling blood. Apollyon though, realizing that it is a "submission" lions den match, comes up from behind Storm and locks in the ApollyonLock! Storm is screaming in pain as he clutches the den walls to prevent him from tapping out. Apollyon though, is relentless with the hold and doesnt let go until Storm just suddenly passes out. Apollyon now releases the hold realizing he cant make Storm submit if he isnt conscious.Dawn Marie comes out from the backstage area to check on storm. She moves right up against the steel, shouting to Storm, trying to get a response but none is given. Just before Dawn goes into a panic, Dominique shoves Dawn, knocking her into the steel, before turning her around and delivering an Edgeacator! Officials from the back come out and send Dominique to the back as well as Dawn after assisting her to her feet. *
King: NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
*Meanwhile in the ring, Storm is finally starting to move. He gets to his knees when Apollyon grabs his foot again, but this time Storm jumps up onto his other foot, not allowing Apollyon to lock in that Apollyon lock. Storm turn around and kicks Apollyon in the back of the head, staggering the big man. Storm then, slow to his feet, connects with a dropkick that knocks Apollyon into the steel. Storm, finds some last minute strength in him to capitalize on the situation and begins rubbing the face of Apollyon into the steel! Storm uses this as a chance to buy himself some time. He falls to his knees in an attempt to gain back some breath and strength. Once Apollyon begins to stir, Storm, using one knee for leverage, pulls himself to his feet. As he turns around, Apollyon crush him, driving the shopping cart into Storm, sending both into the door, and breaking the lock!*
Millennium: Holy crap!
*Storm is on his back on the outside, the shopping cart broken, split down the one side, and den door below Storm. Apollyon can believe it as he follows out the door and grabs Storm, helping him to his feet. Suddenly Lance lunges out with a standing side kick, knocking Apollyon back into the den! Storm falls to one knee and picks up a chair, the third chair brought in by Storm is picked up by Apollyon the two take swing and both connect with each others chairs! The impact leaves the two dropping the chairs and holding their arms in pain. Storm goes back into the den and uses the den walls to help him stand while he leans it against it, holding his arm. Apollyon enters the den and Storm is able to step off from the side. Apollyon comes charging towards Storm but Storm drops to the floor and rolls him into the Canadian Maple Leaf!
The impact of the chairs causes Storm to drop the legs of Apollyon but he reaches down to pick them back up and get the move locked in once again. He grabs of Apollyon but before he can even get the hold locked in, Apollyon taps on the mat!*
Winner and still Canadian Champion: Lance Storm!
King: Well, no puppies, but Storm wins it!
*Lance Storm releases the hold and snatches his title up from the ramp area where he dropped it on the way out, and leaves the area to the back immediately, not wanting any more to do with the match. All the while, Speculum hits the speakers as Storms wipes the blood from his face on his way to the back*
Mongo: What a night were having!
*The words Pain Is Forever flash across the Xtreme Tron as blood red strobe lights flash around the stage. Suddenly Sevendusts "Crusify" hits the P.A. system as the Xtreme Tron plays graphic images of blood and gore while Rat Bastard emerges from behind the curtain to a chorus of boos from the fans. Rat slowly makes his way down to the ring trash talking to the fans all the way. *
Mongo: God I hate him
King: You say that, but you dont do anything to stop him
*Godsmack's "I Stand Alone" hits the arena as the lights dim and Scorpion steps out onto the stage. He walks half way down the ramp and stops. White lights flash and the sound of thunder roars over the music. He continues to the ring and hops onto the ring apron then over the top rope into the ring*
Ray: While talking with Scorpion earlier today he made it quite clear that he wants Rat dead
Buried Alive Match
Rat Bastard -Vs- Scorpion
*Once in the ring, Scorpion wastes little time, walking right up to Rat Bastard who is standing in the middle of the ring. The two stare towards the other and the fans begin to chant the name of Scorpion, feeling the intensity created by the two. Scorpion takes off his jacket, holds it out to his right, never moving, or taking his eyes off of Rat. The official grabs the jacket and tosses it to the outside where the time keeper grabs it. Scorpion is the first to make any sort of move as he connects with a right hand. Rat fires one back at Scorpion, connecting all the way and the two begin to exchange rights until Rat hits Scorpion with a knee to the gut. With Scorpion hunched over, a right hand from Rat jolts Scorpion straight up again! Rat hits Scorpion with another right and after Scorpions head bounces back from the impact, he slowly moves his head over where he is standing face to face with Rat.*
Mongo: Whoa, creepy
*Scorpion stands there, staring at Rat when Rat suddenly goes all out with repeated right hands to the head of Scorpion but Scorpion isnt even fazed as he connects with a knee to the gut of Rat, followed by several right hands knocking him into the corner. With Rat in the corner Scorpion drives repeated right and left hands into the head and gut of Rat Bastard, leaving him dazed in the corner. Scorpion attempts the Irish whip into the far corner but Rat reverses. As Scorpion hits the corner he bounces out and takes down a charging Rat Bastard with a hard clothesline. As Rat gets up, Scorpion comes up from behind, wrapping his arms around him and delivers a huge German Suplex taking Rat off his feet and bringing the fans to theirs! Scorpion, doesnt waste much time staying on the attack and continually kicks Rat Bastard who is trying to get away, by rolling to the outside. Rat rolls right out of the ring but Scorpion is sure to follow. With Rat on his knees Scorpion picks him up and drives him head first into the barricade. Scorpion then leaves Rat and moves over to the timekeeper, shoving him out of the way and grabbing his steel chair. He comes back over to Rat who is standing up against the barricade and connects with the chair to the gut of Rat Bastard. With Rat bent over he slams the chair across his back but Rat doesnt go down. Instead he stands straight up, holding his back in back. As he tries to move off the barricade Scorpion strikes the back with the chair all over again, knocking Rat to his knees and Scorpion slams the chair onto the ground below, relieving some of those built up frustrations for Rat over the past few weeks.*
Millennium: Wow, hes not holding back at all
*Rat still on his knees holding his back and Scorpion comes up, grabbing him by the hair and tossing him into the steel steps on the outside. The steps explode from the corner as Rat is left laying next to them, screaming in pain. Scorpion stands over Rat, looking around, trying to find something else. Scorpion begins looking under the apron, and Rat tries to capitalize, getting to his feet. Scorpion though, turns just as Rat gets to his feet and clotheslines him over the guardrail and into the stands! Rat lands hard on the concrete but has enough in him to begin crawling away, further into the stands. Several angry fans try to get a few shots in on Rat forcing security over as Scorpion takes his time getting over the barricade and stalks Rat. They reach a wall along the back of the floor seating area Rat tries grabbing the top of the wall to climb to his feet. Scorpion arrives just as Rat is about to pull off his knees and slams him head first into the wall. Scorpion, picks up Rat, who has had no offense at all thus far and connects with a right hand, knocking him along the wall as Rat tries to get away. Scorpion continues to punch Rat further along until they end up in the backstage area. Rat tries to slow Scorpion down and throws a right hand at Scorpion, but he blocks it, and kicks Rat in the gut, DDTing Rat onto the concrete floor below!*
Mongo: Holy shit, Scorpion is gonna cripple Rat for me
*Rat lays seemingly motionless on the floor below as Scorpion rolls him over with his foot, revealing the blood coming from the head of Rat. The camera pans up to see several screaming fans with excitement, as Scorpion and Rat are in the concession area. Scorpion picks up Rat and bounces him head first off the wall. Scorpion immediately picks up Rat and tosses him into one of the stands! The food is knocked around everywhere as Scorpion stands at the other end of the stand pulling Rat off his feet and flipping him back over to his side of the stand. Scorpion then toss him, not over the souvenir stand but this time right into the stand, knocking everything over including the shelves along the wall, all tumbling down on top of Rat! As Scorpion digs through the mess he pulls Rat and tosses him back into the concrete area. Rat with the little energy left in him, begins to crawl away as Scorpion follows him once again. The two eventually end up in the parking lot. Scorpion picks up Rat and leans him up against the car. He pulls him over behind him, turns around and vertical suplexes him right onto the hood of the car! Scorpion jumps up onto the hood of the car with Scorpion and picks up Rat. He holds him there, yelling into the face before picking him up and delivering a spine buster on the glass! Scorpion doesnt release the legs and locks in the Scorpion lock on the car! Rat is pounding on the glass beside him, tapping out, but Scorpion doesnt release the hold. The glass breaks and Rat continues to squirm trying to fight the pain. Finally Scorpion releases the hold as Rat, bloodied across his arm and his head as well, and he still has had no offense thus far in this match.*
Ray: I dont believe Rat has had the chance to show any offense in this match!
*Scorpion gets off the car and stalks Rat, circling the hood of the car, pacing back and forth before finally grabbing Rat and drags him over to the truckers entrance. Scorpion tosses Rat up against the large door before lifting it up, allowing access to the building. Scorpion picks up Rat and drops him with T-bone suplex and Rat lands right underneath the door where Scorpion lets it drop on Rat! He picks it up and slams it down one more time! As Scorpion lifts the door up, Rat rolls away, getting away from both Scorpion and the door. As Rat continues to crawl away, they end up both back in the parking lot. Scorpion picks Rat up and leans him right up against one of the XHF transport trucks. Scorpion gets right up in the face of Rat and looks like hes ready to strike when suddenly Prodigy, obviously had enough of the Scorpion onslaught towards Rat, clocks Scorpion from behind! Prodigy quickly grabs Scorpion and tosses him into the truck. As Scorpion bounces back, Prodigy comes out of nowhere with a Taste of Glory on Scorpion! Prodigy continually kicks Scorpion on the ground, as the official, though its no disqualification, is trying to regain some order in this match as he tries to pull Prodigy off of Scorpion. Prodigy eventually backs off of Scorpion and he turns to Rat, helping him to his feet, although Rat is out on his feet, he is at least standing. Prodigy gets right up in Rats face trying to snap him out of his daze and eventually Rat is able to throw his arms up, telling Prodigy to back off. As Prodigy turns away, Rat is able to take a now standing Scorpion down with a hard clothesline. Rat follows right through with the clothesline and leans right up against the wall, trying to gain back some strength. Prodigy, satisfied with his results, takes off back to the locker room area and Rat picks up Scorpion, dragging him towards the arena entrance. Rat reaches the door and stops right there, looking back at Scorpion. Rat takes a step back before tossing Scorpion head first through the glass in the doorway!*
Millennium: And his head goes through the doorway!
*Scorpion reveals the blood on his forehead as Rat drags Scorpion inside the arena. Rat bounces Scorpion off the wall, sending him further ahead and back towards the ring area. The two come out from under the stage, and end up beside the ramp, at the other side of the ramp is the dirt piles in which they must bury the other in, in order to win. Rat bounces the head of Scorpion off the steel ramp and Scorpion staggers back right out to ringside. Rat gets to ringside where he grabs Scorpion and flips him over with a belly to belly suplex. Rat is slow to his feet, but does beat Scorpion there, wiping the blood from his forehead. Rat walks out along to the side of the ring where the chair Scorpion used earlier is still sitting. He slides the chair into the ring, where he then comes around and tosses Scorpion back in as well. Rat picks up the chair but Scorpion, throwing all that energy into this one, lunges up, and punches the chair back into the head of Rat. Rat staggers into the ropes where Scorpion comes back with an Irish whip and as Rat comes back, connects with an Xtreme Neckbreaker!*
Ray: What a neckbreaker!
*Scorpion falls over the top rope where he takes a moment to breathe and catch his breath. Rat is attempting to get up, as he gets to his knees Scorpion, shoves Rat into the corner with a few hard rights. He then tosses Rat into the far corner and follows him in, connecting with a huge Scorpion Splash! As Rat, Scorpion takes him down with a spine buster and looks to be locking in the Scorpion Lock all over again when Prodigy comes back!*
King: And here comes Prodigy!
*Prodigy slides into the ring but this time Scorpion is there to great him with a few right hands. Prodigy is staggered into the ropes where Scorpion, with a few kicks to the side of the ribs of Prodigy, also knocks him onto the corner. He sends Prodigy across to the far corner and gives him a Scorpion Splash as well! As Prodigy staggers out from the corner, he is hit with a Scorpion Plex!*
Mongo: Scorpion will not back down from this fight!
*Scorpion crawls to the outside where he grabs the steel chair, that had been used earlier several times. As he enters the ring, Rat is to his knees and he sits straight up, begging for forgiveness from Scorpion. Scorpion though, relentless in his attack, cracks the chair right over the skull of Rat! Rat is completely out when Scorpion turns around and sees Prodigy, using the ropes to help himself up. As Prodigy gets to his feet, he turns around and he gets hit over the head with the chair as well! Prodigy falls right out to the outside and Scorpion walks over, stalking the unconscious Rat Bastard. Scorpion raises the chair, looking to strike Rat again when "Fear" by Disturbed hits the speakers and out comes Reeshi, who has obviously had enough as well!*
Mongo: God damn interfearers!
*Reeshi slides into the ring, and Scorpion swings the chair at him. Reeshi ducks and connects with a right hand to Scorpion. Scorpion though, fights back and the two begin to exchange blows in the middle of the ring. Reeshi catches Scorpion with a knee to the gut and looks to setting him up for a Coral Reesh! Reeshi has Scorpion set but Scorpion grabs the legs of Reeshi and flips him over his back. All the mean time, Rat is getting away as he is crawling towards the stage area.*
Mongo: Whats Rat doing!?
*Back in the ring, Reeshi gets up and turns to Scorpion who drops him with a spinebuster and locks in the Scorpion Lock! Reeshi screams trying to fight the pain of the move but eventually the only man to make Reeshi tap, has done it again as Reeshi is tapping on the mat! Reeshi continues to tap as Scorpion keeps the hold locked in*
Ray: Scorpion has lost it!
*Scorpion finally releases the hold and turns to see Rat right at the bottom of the ramp, trying to get away. Scorpion leaves the ring and stalks Rat alongside the ramp as the two are heading towards the grave. Rat, still crawling away from Scorpion, feels his hand reach the dirt below him and suddenly stops. He turns to see Scorpion standing directly behind him! Scorpion snatches up one of the shovels (this one situated along the guardrail. The other is at the top of the grave pile) Rat gets to his knees and tries to run from the now armed Scorpion, but Scorpion smacks Rat across the back of the head of Rat, breaking the shovel! Rat lays unconscious on the side of the grave pile and Scorpion drags him up to the top. He stops right in front of the grave itself, the hole dug before the match even got under way. Scorpion grabs Rat and pulls him to his knees, setting him up for a powerbomb right into the grave! Just as Scorpion is about to lift Rat, he is suddenly straight to the mat and pieces of that second shovel explodes over the back of his head! Reeshi stands behind him, obviously the one that struck Scorpion and Prodigy comes up, grabbing Rat and begins to drag him away. Reeshi continues to stand there, staring down at Scorpion, who is out cold face down in the grave pile. Reeshi turns to see Prodigy letting go of Rat, laying him on top of the steel stage, waving Reeshi on. Reeshi joins Prodigy in taking off with Rat backstage and the match is ruled a no contest!*
Mongo: Oh dear, Scorpion isnt gonna like this!
*Suddenly, the arena is plunged into total darkness and the crowd looks on intently with anticipation as then momentarily, the demonic "Red Fist" Symbol of Rage appears on the Xtreme Tron. Mere moments later, the screen turns to static and the tension builds as the following words of Godsmack lead man Sully Erna, along with multiple guitar riffs begin echoing throughout the building. As the rocking lyrics go, BOOM! A HUGE explosion rocks the arena and the entire crowd is on it's feet as the chorus of Godsmack's brand spankin' new single "Straight Out Of Line" hits the PA! Meanwhile, on the screen in tune with the chorus, the words "FIST-OF-RAGE!" appear!!! Moments later, the curtain flips back and the sadistic couple of Rage and gorgeous wife Torrie Wilson step out onto the top of the stage! Following this, the two then strut cockily on down the ramp to an overwhelming chorus of boos from this entire sellout crowd joining them tonight. Thereafter, the duo then finally reach the ring area where, once inside, the legendary Bald-Headed Behemoth sets off to do his signature 4 corners salute taunt, raising his fists defiantly to the crowd and taunting them sadistically from each and every corner. Meanwhile, Torrie stands outside the ring taunting off in her own ways to this multitude of loyal XHFers, all the while cheering her husband on endlessly as always...*
Mongo: Go Rage go!
*The lights in the arena go out as the fans get to their feet in anticipation of who is to come. Suddenly... BOOM! Huge flames shoot out of the stage as the fans are shocked then begin cheering as "Don't Tread On Me" by Metallica blasts over the sound system. They curtain flips open and Martyr walks out on stage to a huge pop from the fans. He runs down the ramp slapping hands with everybody on the side and makes his way into the ring.*
Mongo: I like Martyr too though, damn
XHF Ultimate Championship
Rage -Vs- Martyr
*The two half brothers stare each other down as the bell is sounded. Rage holds out a hand to shake as a sign of sportsmanship and immediately the crowd begins to boo and tell Martyr not to do it. Martyr hesitantly reaches in to shake and a clean shake is taken. Rage turns around and plays to the crowd on how he is such a great guy then turns right back around and levels Martyr with a clothesline while he was not paying attention. Rage stomps away on the Ultimate Champion then steps on his face and digs his foot in before the ref tells him to stop. The ref backs Rage off and Rage shoves the Ref aside and runs at Martyr clotheslining him over the top rope. Martyr falls to the outside and the ref warns Rage not to go outside. Rage keeps the ref distracted as Torrie moves around the ring and clocks Martyr in the head with the heel of her shoe. The spike on the end of the shoe causes a gash in the forehead of Martyr and Martyr slowly begins to bleed as Rage slides out of the opposite side of the ring. Martyr gets to his feet and wipes the blood away from his face as Rage sneaks up behind Martyr around the side of the ring and grabs Martyr from behind with a waist lock. Rage attempts a German Suplex, but Martyr is able to block and reverse around into a waist lock of his own. Rage tried to break the lock, but he is unsuccessful as Martyr lifts him up and drops him down across his knee with an inverted atomic drop.*
Mongo, Ray, & King: OUCH!
Millennium: Been there, done that
*Rage is still standing but holding his lower extremities, which leaves the door wide open for Martyr. Martyr grabs Rage by the back of the head and rams Rage head first into the ring post using the ring as a weapon. Martyr rolls Rage in the ring then shortly follows. Rage gets to his feet but is staggering around as Martyr just stalks him. Rage turns around right into the arms Martyr and right into a strong sambo Suplex. Martyr makes the cover but Torrie jumps on the apron and gets the attention of the ref before he can start the count. Martyr sees this and gets up and into Torries face. Torrie yells back at Martyr and Martyr turns away from her brushing her off, but Torrie grabs him by the shoulder and spins him around then slaps him right across the mouth. Martyr just kind of shakes it off then grabs her by the head and tosses her in the ring. The ref gets in Martyrs face and pleads with him not to hurt her but Martyr just pushes through and lifts Torrie to her feet. He holds her by her hair and points to the top rope signaling for the Army Driver, but from behind Rage hits him with a low blow.*
Ray, King, & Mongo: YOWCH!
Millennium: Oh, is that what this paper is for?
Mongo: Yeah, we all read them off in order, in unison
*Martyr is bent over and Rage sends Torrie out of the ring then drops Rage to the mat with a DDT. Rage makes the cover but Martyr gets his foot on the ropes. Rage is infuriated by this and drags Martyr to the middle of the ring and makes another pin fall attempt, but Martyr kicks out this time. Rage slams his hands on the mat in anger then pulls himself as well as Martyr to their feet. Rage kicks Martyr in the stomach then sends him into the corner turnbuckle with and Irish whip. Martyr makes a huge impact with the corner and falls into a sitting position as Rage slowly moves in. Rage grabs the top ropes with both hands and begins stomping a mud hole in Martyr. He stomps Martyr till he lays flat on his back then Rage drags him away from the ropes and makes yet another pin attempt only to have Martyr roll the shoulder just before the count of three. Rage slowly gets to his feet now in a bit calmer state as he begins to climb the top rope. Rage flies off with an elbow drop but connects with all mat as Martyr is able to roll out of the way. Martyr lays stomach first on the mat as Rage rolls out of the ring holding his elbow in pain. Martyr begins to pull himself up on the ring ropes as Rage slides back in the ring cradling his right arm. Martyr turns and the two begins exchanging punches. Martyr gets the upper hand and whips Rage into the ropes and upon return locks in a sleeper on Rage.*
Ray: And Martyr gets the sleeper in!
*Rage waves his arms around as he slowly fades but he is able to muscle his way towards the ropes and grab the top rope making martyr break the hold. The blood of Martyr now covers the back of Rage as Rage leans on the ropes in agony. Martyr grabs Rage by the back of his head and rubs his face into the top rope until the ref breaks it. Rage falls back leaning into the corner as Martyr begins to move in on him. Martyr gets down to his knees and drives his shoulder several times into the ribs of Rage. Martyr drags a fallen Rage out of the corner and makes the cover and gets a two as Rage is able to get the shoulder up. Martyr is noticeably upset but ready for more as he gets to his feet and begins to lift Rage up as well, but once Rage is to his knees he drives his shoulder into the stomach of Martyr and rams him into the corner turnbuckle. Rage then falls back flat on his back as Martyr falls into the sitting position in the corner. The ref begins to count to ten as both men seem knocked out. At about 6 Martyr pulls himself up on the ring ropes and to his feet while Rage nearly at the same time rolls over and gets to his hands and knees. Martyr moves over to Rage and lifts him up the rest of the way then goes for a whip to the ropes, but Rage pulls Martyr towards him and up onto his shoulders. Rage goes to spin Martyr around but his shoulder gives way and Martyr falls onto his feet behind Rage and Martyr grabs Rage from behind hitting Knocking on Deaths Door. Martyr slowly makes the cover and gets the three.*

XHF Rumble Match
All XHF Superstars Entered In The Match

King: I can exclusively reveal that this year's XHF Rumble match will contain forty XHF Superstars, making it the largest battle royal match in professional wrestling!
Cole: What a way to start off the Road to NOC II!
Godsmack's "I Stand Alone" hits the arena as the lights dim and Scorpion steps out onto the stage. He walks half way down the ramp and stops. White lights flash and the sound of thunder roars over the music. He continues to the ring and hops onto the ring apron then over the top rope into the ring.
Cole: Scorpion elected HIMSELF to be the first man to enter the match. I'm as big a fan of Scorpion as any, but even I've got to say he's just being dumb here.
King: Not if you consider that he may not want to win this match. He may just see this as a test for himself to see how far he can go. Now who's going to be second?
The lights in the arena go out as "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence begins to play over the sound system. Mist fills the stage as white lights underneath slowly begin to come on during the soft piano part of the song. Soon a single green laser light beams out and it splits up as the guitar riffs begin to play. The lasers begin to dance with the music and it continues until the part of the song that is silent comes. Suddenly... BOOM! Silver pyros shoot out of the stage as the heavy part of the song begins. The words "Joey Ryan" are spelled out over the Xtreme-Tron as the curtain flips open and Joey Ryan walks out onto the stage. Joey poses on top of the ramp he begins to head down to the ring. He enters and Joey goes to pose on top of the turnbuckles before he hops off and prepares for the match.
Cole: Joey Ryan. The future of the industry up against the present. What a way to start the match!
Reeshi: He isn't the present, I am.
King: With all Joey's claims of winning the Rumble, perhaps he forgot that he has to get past the likes of Scorpion to do so!
The bell rings. Scorpion and Joey Ryan circle each other. Scorpion advances into a kick to the stomach. Whip off the ropes by Ryan. A superkick attempts to catch Scorpion on the return but the veteran ducks around, grabbing a full nelson for a quick Scorpion Plex. Joey Ryan raises his leg behind him hitting Scorpion's crotch. He then darts behind his opponent with a full nelson of his own hitting a full nelson slam. Scorpion is more affected by the low blow than the following move.
King: Scorpion is down. Maybe we'll see another 450 splash from the future of the industry like on Pyro - that was awesome!
Cole: Of course going to the top rope in a battle royal situation is high risk not only in terms of health but also the match. Having said that Scorpion is the only other man in this match so Joey has got the breathing space.
Joey locks in the STF. Scorpion reaches for and grabs the ropes but the referee has no obligation to break the hold. Realizing this Scorpion uses to ropes to roll them both over, where Scorpion can and does escape. Joey Ryan approaches Scorpion again and places his head between his own legs for the Amnesiac. Scorpion lifts him for a back body drop to counter, but holds onto his legs with Joey's torso hanging behind him. He runs into the ropes, causing Joey's torso to fly over them, but Joey's legs are wrapped firmly around Scorpion's waist.

Reeshi: Look at the people in the ring now Michael. You can't say any of them would be the favourite against me in the main event of NOC II.
Cole: If I was being perfectly honest I'd say all of them are skilled athletes that could give you a run for your money.
Reeshi: You're not a wrestler Cole, you wouldn't know.
Cole: I wrestled once.
Reeshi: Against who?
Cole: Iceman, and I won.
Reeshi: Is he in this match?

The burned outline forms a shape, the shape of a bird, suddenly, the entire area of the "bird" lights up with flames, a phoenix. The letters "XHF" fall onto the phoenix as the flames continue on. The song continues as a black bird image emblazoned with "XHF" is projected onto the ring mat. The letters "H" and "F" are projected onto the ramp way. Suddenly, two white flares fire from either side of the entranceway, they cross forming an "X". As they sparkle and fizz, Mongo walks out, under the large "X" above him. He is wearing his Without Remorse Wrestling Federation Phoenix Championship around his waist as he walks down the ramp proudly, acknowledging the fans as he goes.*
Jerry "The King" Lawler: And here comes Mongo!
Mongo: Hey hey guys, are we ready for one hell of a show!
Ray: You better believe it!
*The Xtreme-Tron lights up with a number 5 in the center. The countdown begins as a piano picks up over the PA and begins to play. The countdown reaches 0 and everything goes black as the music stops. A few minutes later, the pyro explodes from the ramp in blue and silver form. The guitar riffs and drums have now resumed as "Get Me Through" by Ozzy Osbourne is now playing and Millennium is at the top of the ramp, back to the crowd. He extends his left arm on which the PCW Primetime Title is resting, followed by his right arm. He follows with a spinning taunt down the ramp, during which he raises the title above his head and flaunts it. He finishes spinning and begins to walk down the ramp, the fans booing him the whole way. He climbs the steps and gets on the aprons, where he performs the signature Lionheart steps. He then raises the titles in the air and enters the ring, spins around to the boos, then climbs out of the ring and heads for the commentators table.*
Ray Usher: What the fuck?
Millennium: Nice to see you too Ray
Ray: Seriously Mongo, what the hell is this?
Mongo: Im not really to happy about it either, but being hes under somewhat of a contract this is free, I wouldnt have gotten him but Mr. Perfect cancelled for some reason
*The lights go out and spot lights circle around the arena. They then shut out and one spotlight goes over in the center of the ring. A pyro missile shots from the top of the arena and down at the Xtreme Tron. Big bursts of pyros blow up out of the Xtreme Tron. "Bombshell" by Powerman 5000 plays over the PA System. Out walks Lo Ki and Johnny "The Bull" Stamboli and gets the crowd excited. The two dudes walk down to the ring and taunt the crowd for some more cheers. Flames shoot up from behind them on the ramp and on the stage of the Xtreme Tron. They shoot up from the turnbuckles randomly. They roll into the ring and taunt the crowd. They jump off the turnbuckles and talk to each other as Stamboli takes his Hat and Necklace off and hands them to the ref to put somewhere. *
Ray: The fans are really loving these guys!
King: At least somebody is!
*"The Energy" by Audiovent slowly plays over the PA system, as an explosion bursts out of nowhere. The vocals kick in and from behind the curtain The Chris and Chris Connection walk out, looking at the crowd on either side of them. They walk down the ramp where Williams stops at the middle, and Adams waits at the bottom. Williams spins around to show off the back of his shiny jacket, then strutting down the ramp as both members slide under the bottom rope. Williams jumps to the top rope and sticks his arms out, then jumping back down as he removes his jacket, as the music dies down and C and C prepare for their match.*
King: Did you catch Chris Williams babysitting?
Ray: Yeahgreat role model there
King: Your damn right!
*Suddenly inside the arena, all the lights dim as the daunting tune of "Liberate" by Disturbed hits the PA! Then, as it's opening chords reverberate throughout the arena and the chorus of the song begins, a gold spotlight falls upon the top of the stage where just then the sadistic figures of Kinetic themselves, Fury, Venom, & Tracy Brooks appear! Then, as the spotlight on them fades away and the song continues in the background, they all strut on down the ramp to a HUGE chorus of cheers from the crowd, and once reaching the bottom of the ramp, all 3 climb right up onto the ring apron and after then stepping on through the ropes and into the ring, both Fury & Venom set off to nearby turnbuckles to taunt off to the crowd, while in the meantime Tracy goes to lean over near the ropes as she proceeds to pump this entire sellout crowd up in her own manner. Then, after finishing these routine taunts of theirs, both Kinetic members climb down from the turnbuckles and proceed to, while Tracy exits the ring, lean up against them as they await the bell to ring and the match to start.*
Ray: Folks, your in for a match here tonight, and then it will be followed by the rest of the card, which will also be awsome
Mongo: What the hell was that?
Ray: A joke
Mongo: I dont get it

Ray: What the hell!?
Millennium: Wow, I should have been betting on this PPV, I would have made a fortune
"Charlie Big Potato" by Skunk Anansie hits as Slain emerges from the depths of the Xtreme Tron to a mixed reaction. He raises his arms up as if on a crucifix with his middle fingers raised in front of the crowd either side of him. His journey to the ring continues as he interacts with the fans by the rampway.*
Mongo: Its hard not to like Slain
*The people that we love* by bush hits and all the lights turn Dark Blue. When Tom turns up on the ramp a burst of fireworks go off and the lights go normal again. In the ring dark red strobe lights are flashing. Tom gets into the ring, climbs the buckle and raises one arm. He then gets down and sites on the top rope.*
Ray: Yeah, or Tom
*The screen comes on with the word Platinum in bold letters across the screen. From there the Lunatics can be heard in the background "Yo" as the letters become larger and larger. The word "yo" repeats itself until "Platinum" takes up most of the screen. "It always comes out like this" The word Platinum grows so big it explodes on the screen and begins to flash across the middle with an electric texture to it. From there the beat picks up and suddenly "Platinum Plus" by the St. Lunatics can be heard. With the music picking up, scenes of Platinum flying through the air and delivering some high flying maneuvers, including the Money Maker as a large pyro goes off on the stage and out steps Platinum. He struts his way mid-way down the ramp (an NWO type walk) before picking up and running towards the ring, sliding under the bottom rope. He rushes to the far corner and spreads his arms out sideways, taunting the fans, receiving several boos along the way.*

*The opening riffs of "Born With Nothing, Die With Everything" by Papa Roach hits the NAFW-Tron, as the crowd turns to complete and solid boos. Diamond's NAFW-Tron begins playing, showing clips from him nailing Goldberg with a chair, to a clip of him defeating Psyko Stevo as Wraith. It flashes through many shots of himself as the song plays. The video stops, and blackness covers the arena. Blue strobes of light begin flashing up and down the ramp, and then begin to circle the crowd. Finally they all come from the crowd, and converge on the entrance way, where Diamond now stands, head down. Diamond began making a few punches at the air, and then finally stretched his hands out in a T position. He then finally brought his fists together, cracking his knuckles. He finally walks down towards the ring. He then slides into the ring, and climbs to the top rope, making the same position. He then throws one hand up in the air, and the crowd responds with boos. He chuckles, however, and jumps down from the ramp, as the song dies out.*
Mongo: And here comes Diamond
*The lights in the arena go out and than a silver stop watch appears on the Xtreme Tron. Its starts ticking down as the background starts to get more and more violent with electric bolts.

A huge flaming pyro erupts over the stage dwarfing the Xtreme Tron. "Everyone" by Adema plays and out comes Goldberg all rallied up and ready to fight. He jumps around on the stage rallying the crowd up. Shady walks out behind him taunting the crowd too. They walk down to the ring and Goldberg continually taunts the crowd. Goldberg helps Shady into the ring and slides in himself. Goldberg climbs a turnbuckle and taunts the crowd while Shady poses near the ropes next to him.

Millennium: Well find out King
XHF Phoenix Championship
Diamond -Vs- Goldberg
*Diamond reluctantly enters the ring as Goldberg stands in the corner signaling for Diamond to "bring it". The ref finally forces Diamond into the ring and Goldberg begins to circle like a blood thirsty vulture waiting to devour its prey. Diamond finally locks up with Goldberg with a front face lock but Goldberg over powers him sending him to the corner and driving into his sternum with a few brutal shoulder thrusts. Goldberg backs off as Diamond loses his footing and collapses to the mat, Goldberg walks around laughing at the fallen Diamond and taunting him to get back to his feet. Diamond finally climbs back to his feet and puts his hand out challenging Goldberg to another test of strength*
Millennium: What is he crazy?
King: Goldberg will kill you Diamond!

Goldberg refuses to tap out so Diamond releases the hold and continues to drop more elbows but this time onto Goldbergs lower back.*

King: Well if you EVER held a title in your life Millennium you would understand all of this
Millennium: I did hold a title!
King: Not those plastic ones at home, real ones!
*Diamond lifts Goldberg to his feet and flips him over with a snap suplex. He rolls through and lifts him up and drops him down this time with a stalling suplex. He then rolls through again and lifts him up, spins around and then spikes him down into the mat with a brutal brain buster!*
Ray: Well that looks a little familiar
*Diamond floats over and hooks the leg but only gets a two count. He lifts Goldberg to his feet but the big man fires back with a few shots to Diamonds mid section and then powers him up and slams him down with a last minute Sledge Hammer! Both men lay on the mat unable to move a muscle as both have been taken to their limit. Diamond finally stirs on the mat a bit before reaching up and grabbing his head in pain as Goldberg slowly but surely makes his way to his feet. Goldberg gets up and climbs to the top rope. Diamond using the ropes for leverage finally gets to his feet but Goldberg takes flight and nails the dazed Diamond with a missile dropkick!*
Ray: Where in the hell did that come from?!
King: The top rope?
*Goldberg quickly gets to his feet bringing the champion with him. Goldberg powers Diamond up onto his shoulders and yells out, "Extreme Edge!" Goldberg spins around and tosses Diamond out but he lands on his feet. Diamond kicks Goldberg in the gut and spikes him with a desperation DDT!*
Mongo: Neither of these men can put one another away
King: I know both men just want to kill each other but just cant seem to figure out how to do just that
*Diamond quickly gets to his feet and climbs the top rope. He sits for a few seconds collecting his thoughts and then takes flight crashing down hard on NOTHING but mat with the Air Diamond! Goldberg who moved out of the way stands perched in the turnbuckle waiting for Diamond to get to his feet. Just as he does Goldberg charges at him and takes him down hard with a thundering Cruise Missile! Goldberg gets to his feet and signals to the crowd that "thats it" as he climbs the turnbuckle. Goldberg looks out at the crowd really quick and then takes flight looking for the Leap of Faith, but he sees the same fate as Diamond when he crashes down hard in the spot Diamond was supposed to be in. Goldberg rolls around on the ground holding his mid section as Diamond moves in for the kill. He climbs the top rope and waits for Goldberg to get to his feet*
Millennium: I dont know what hes trying here but its not gonna be pretty
King: Oh shut up and let the man work!
*Goldberg finally climbs to his feet and Diamond takes flight. He grabs Goldbergs head in mid-air and takes him down to the mat with the Diamond Cutter! Diamond hooks the leg, 1 2 Diamond pulls out of the pin!*

Mongo: Thats the cockiness getting to Diamond. Im telling you its gonna bite him in the ass one of these days
*Diamond lifts Goldberg to his feet while signaling for another Diamond Cutter. Diamond turns quickly and locks on the face lock but before he can drop Goldberg shoves him into the turnbuckle. Goldberg kicks Diamond in the gut and attempts the stunner but Diamond pushes Goldberg away. Goldberg attempts a clothesline but Diamond ducks under and tries for another Diamond Cutter but Goldberg shoves him off again, Goldberg grabs Diamond for a belly to belly but Diamond rakes his eyes and attempts a springboard moonsault. Goldberg catches Diamond on his shoulder and then tosses him up in the air and catches him in the Samoan drop position. Goldberg spins around and tosses Diamond out connecting with the Extreme Edge! Goldberg hooks the leg, 1 2 3!*
Mongo: We have a new Phoenix champion!
King: Well that really sucks
*"Everyone" hits the PA as Goldberg is handed his newly one XHF Phoenix Championship much to Diamonds dismay, Goldberg celebrates with the belt in the ring as Diamond makes his way out of the ring and up the ramp cursing at himself and swinging his arms in anger with what just happened*
Winner and New XHF Phoenix Champion: Goldberg
Mongo: He really wanted this, and now he has it
"Speculum" by Adema hits the PA and Lance Storm emerges from behind the curtain, with the Canadian Heavyweight Championship around his waist and holds his arms up in the air at the top of the ramp to a huge chorus of boo's. Dawn Marie then slides out from behind him carrying the Canadian flag, she stands beside him rubbing up against him with her hand on the title. He then walks to a corner of the stage and begins stretching as his music dies down.
King: Look! Lance has got a microphone!
Ray: God damnit
Lance Storm: If I can be serious for a minute
*Boos*
Storm: Its not surprising that a lower state in the UnUnited States of America cannot allow myself to speak, however, I shall be gracing you with my match tonight although it is greatly undeserved. Now show some respect and rise for the playing of the Canadian National Anthem
*The crowd boos as the Canadian National Anthem starts to play, suddenly the Lights go out as Demise of Sanity by Black Label Society hits, followed up by a lightning bolts that hit the top of the stage, Apollyon appears and slowly makes his way to the ring.*
Mongo: Thank god for that interruption!
Submission Lion's Den Match for the Canadian Heavyweight Championship
Lance Storm -Vs- Apollyon
*Before Apollyon can even get off the stage Lance Storm comes from behind and chucks him off the stage, into the steel mesh of the den below! The music stops and the arena is completely silent as Storm stands over Apollyon at the top of the stage, starring down at Apollyon below. Apollyon is completely motionless as emergency crews rush out onto the scene. Lance Storm begins to walk down the ramp but instead of going to the den, he goes out to ring area. Lance Storm pulls out a shopping cart from the side of the ramp and drags it down to ringside. He lifts up the apron and begins pulling things out from under the ring and putting them into the cart. He leaves the cart still for a moment while medical attention is still being given to a motionless Apollyon as Storm goes around to the other side of the ring and grabs not one, not two, but three steel chairs. Lance Storm, normally using speed and technical abilities is looking to take things to a whole other level.*
Mongo: It looks like things are going to go to a new level!
*Apollyon is brought to his feet by medical attention as they attempt to get him backstage when Apollyon begins to shove them all off! Lance Storm is now coming over towards then den with the cart and the chairs. He puts the cart into the den as Apollyon, unable to stand falls down to one knee. Storm leaves two of the three chairs in the den before coming out with the third. Apollyon, still trying to stand, finally does but when he turns around to face Storm, he gets the chair cracked over his skull! Apollyon lays motionless on the concrete, blood pouring from his forehead and the match hasnt even started yet! The officials and medical crew again rush in after Apollyon but Storm shoves them all off and drags Apollyon by his feet into the lions den. He closes the door behind him and begins to wrap a chain from inside the cart around the door of the den! Storm locks the door shut and the official cant get in. Storm then begins to taunt the official, every now and then delivering a kick to the back of the head of Apollyon. Finally the official begins to climb the den and come in through the top. Just before entering he orders the tike keeper to ring the bell and the match is actually being allowed to begin after such a brutal beginning. Storm picks up Apollyon and lays him against the den where he begins to taunt Apollyon and get right up into his face. Apollyon is such a bloodied mess, he is hardly able to see. But seemingly out of desperation Apollyon hits Storm with a knee to the gut and tosses him head first into the side of the den! As Storm falls to the mat, and begins to crawl around on his knees, Apollyon is seemingly out on his feet, leaning against the den walls, but the move bought him some time. *
Ray: This match is brutal!
*Storm struggles to his feet but uses the cart to help him up. When he gets to his feet, he pulls out a trash can lid. He moves over to where Apollyon is and takes a swing at his head but Apollyon rolls to his right and moves out of the way, turning back around and again pounding the head of storm into the steel! Storm staggers backward and another desperation move comes from Apollyon as he connect with a Kick to Hell on Lance Storm! Both men fall to the floor after that one, but Apollyon is miraculously the first one to his feet! Apollyon knocks over the shopping cart, spilling out all the toys and picking up the cart. Lance Storm is attempting to get to his knees on the other side, using the den walls for leverage but Apollyon just tosses the cart, smacking against the back of Apollyons head, knocking Storms into the steel as well! The evidence of the impact is left in Storm forehead as he joins Apollyon in spilling blood. Apollyon though, realizing that it is a "submission" lions den match, comes up from behind Storm and locks in the ApollyonLock! Storm is screaming in pain as he clutches the den walls to prevent him from tapping out. Apollyon though, is relentless with the hold and doesnt let go until Storm just suddenly passes out. Apollyon now releases the hold realizing he cant make Storm submit if he isnt conscious.Dawn Marie comes out from the backstage area to check on storm. She moves right up against the steel, shouting to Storm, trying to get a response but none is given. Just before Dawn goes into a panic, Dominique shoves Dawn, knocking her into the steel, before turning her around and delivering an Edgeacator! Officials from the back come out and send Dominique to the back as well as Dawn after assisting her to her feet. *
King: NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
*Meanwhile in the ring, Storm is finally starting to move. He gets to his knees when Apollyon grabs his foot again, but this time Storm jumps up onto his other foot, not allowing Apollyon to lock in that Apollyon lock. Storm turn around and kicks Apollyon in the back of the head, staggering the big man. Storm then, slow to his feet, connects with a dropkick that knocks Apollyon into the steel. Storm, finds some last minute strength in him to capitalize on the situation and begins rubbing the face of Apollyon into the steel! Storm uses this as a chance to buy himself some time. He falls to his knees in an attempt to gain back some breath and strength. Once Apollyon begins to stir, Storm, using one knee for leverage, pulls himself to his feet. As he turns around, Apollyon crush him, driving the shopping cart into Storm, sending both into the door, and breaking the lock!*
Millennium: Holy crap!
*Storm is on his back on the outside, the shopping cart broken, split down the one side, and den door below Storm. Apollyon can believe it as he follows out the door and grabs Storm, helping him to his feet. Suddenly Lance lunges out with a standing side kick, knocking Apollyon back into the den! Storm falls to one knee and picks up a chair, the third chair brought in by Storm is picked up by Apollyon the two take swing and both connect with each others chairs! The impact leaves the two dropping the chairs and holding their arms in pain. Storm goes back into the den and uses the den walls to help him stand while he leans it against it, holding his arm. Apollyon enters the den and Storm is able to step off from the side. Apollyon comes charging towards Storm but Storm drops to the floor and rolls him into the Canadian Maple Leaf!
The impact of the chairs causes Storm to drop the legs of Apollyon but he reaches down to pick them back up and get the move locked in once again. He grabs of Apollyon but before he can even get the hold locked in, Apollyon taps on the mat!*
Winner and still Canadian Champion: Lance Storm!
King: Well, no puppies, but Storm wins it!
*Lance Storm releases the hold and snatches his title up from the ramp area where he dropped it on the way out, and leaves the area to the back immediately, not wanting any more to do with the match. All the while, Speculum hits the speakers as Storms wipes the blood from his face on his way to the back*
Mongo: What a night were having!
*The words Pain Is Forever flash across the Xtreme Tron as blood red strobe lights flash around the stage. Suddenly Sevendusts "Crusify" hits the P.A. system as the Xtreme Tron plays graphic images of blood and gore while Rat Bastard emerges from behind the curtain to a chorus of boos from the fans. Rat slowly makes his way down to the ring trash talking to the fans all the way. *
Mongo: God I hate him
King: You say that, but you dont do anything to stop him
*Godsmack's "I Stand Alone" hits the arena as the lights dim and Scorpion steps out onto the stage. He walks half way down the ramp and stops. White lights flash and the sound of thunder roars over the music. He continues to the ring and hops onto the ring apron then over the top rope into the ring*
Ray: While talking with Scorpion earlier today he made it quite clear that he wants Rat dead
Buried Alive Match
Rat Bastard -Vs- Scorpion
*Once in the ring, Scorpion wastes little time, walking right up to Rat Bastard who is standing in the middle of the ring. The two stare towards the other and the fans begin to chant the name of Scorpion, feeling the intensity created by the two. Scorpion takes off his jacket, holds it out to his right, never moving, or taking his eyes off of Rat. The official grabs the jacket and tosses it to the outside where the time keeper grabs it. Scorpion is the first to make any sort of move as he connects with a right hand. Rat fires one back at Scorpion, connecting all the way and the two begin to exchange rights until Rat hits Scorpion with a knee to the gut. With Scorpion hunched over, a right hand from Rat jolts Scorpion straight up again! Rat hits Scorpion with another right and after Scorpions head bounces back from the impact, he slowly moves his head over where he is standing face to face with Rat.*
Mongo: Whoa, creepy
*Scorpion stands there, staring at Rat when Rat suddenly goes all out with repeated right hands to the head of Scorpion but Scorpion isnt even fazed as he connects with a knee to the gut of Rat, followed by several right hands knocking him into the corner. With Rat in the corner Scorpion drives repeated right and left hands into the head and gut of Rat Bastard, leaving him dazed in the corner. Scorpion attempts the Irish whip into the far corner but Rat reverses. As Scorpion hits the corner he bounces out and takes down a charging Rat Bastard with a hard clothesline. As Rat gets up, Scorpion comes up from behind, wrapping his arms around him and delivers a huge German Suplex taking Rat off his feet and bringing the fans to theirs! Scorpion, doesnt waste much time staying on the attack and continually kicks Rat Bastard who is trying to get away, by rolling to the outside. Rat rolls right out of the ring but Scorpion is sure to follow. With Rat on his knees Scorpion picks him up and drives him head first into the barricade. Scorpion then leaves Rat and moves over to the timekeeper, shoving him out of the way and grabbing his steel chair. He comes back over to Rat who is standing up against the barricade and connects with the chair to the gut of Rat Bastard. With Rat bent over he slams the chair across his back but Rat doesnt go down. Instead he stands straight up, holding his back in back. As he tries to move off the barricade Scorpion strikes the back with the chair all over again, knocking Rat to his knees and Scorpion slams the chair onto the ground below, relieving some of those built up frustrations for Rat over the past few weeks.*
Millennium: Wow, hes not holding back at all
*Rat still on his knees holding his back and Scorpion comes up, grabbing him by the hair and tossing him into the steel steps on the outside. The steps explode from the corner as Rat is left laying next to them, screaming in pain. Scorpion stands over Rat, looking around, trying to find something else. Scorpion begins looking under the apron, and Rat tries to capitalize, getting to his feet. Scorpion though, turns just as Rat gets to his feet and clotheslines him over the guardrail and into the stands! Rat lands hard on the concrete but has enough in him to begin crawling away, further into the stands. Several angry fans try to get a few shots in on Rat forcing security over as Scorpion takes his time getting over the barricade and stalks Rat. They reach a wall along the back of the floor seating area Rat tries grabbing the top of the wall to climb to his feet. Scorpion arrives just as Rat is about to pull off his knees and slams him head first into the wall. Scorpion, picks up Rat, who has had no offense at all thus far and connects with a right hand, knocking him along the wall as Rat tries to get away. Scorpion continues to punch Rat further along until they end up in the backstage area. Rat tries to slow Scorpion down and throws a right hand at Scorpion, but he blocks it, and kicks Rat in the gut, DDTing Rat onto the concrete floor below!*
Mongo: Holy shit, Scorpion is gonna cripple Rat for me
*Rat lays seemingly motionless on the floor below as Scorpion rolls him over with his foot, revealing the blood coming from the head of Rat. The camera pans up to see several screaming fans with excitement, as Scorpion and Rat are in the concession area. Scorpion picks up Rat and bounces him head first off the wall. Scorpion immediately picks up Rat and tosses him into one of the stands! The food is knocked around everywhere as Scorpion stands at the other end of the stand pulling Rat off his feet and flipping him back over to his side of the stand. Scorpion then toss him, not over the souvenir stand but this time right into the stand, knocking everything over including the shelves along the wall, all tumbling down on top of Rat! As Scorpion digs through the mess he pulls Rat and tosses him back into the concrete area. Rat with the little energy left in him, begins to crawl away as Scorpion follows him once again. The two eventually end up in the parking lot. Scorpion picks up Rat and leans him up against the car. He pulls him over behind him, turns around and vertical suplexes him right onto the hood of the car! Scorpion jumps up onto the hood of the car with Scorpion and picks up Rat. He holds him there, yelling into the face before picking him up and delivering a spine buster on the glass! Scorpion doesnt release the legs and locks in the Scorpion lock on the car! Rat is pounding on the glass beside him, tapping out, but Scorpion doesnt release the hold. The glass breaks and Rat continues to squirm trying to fight the pain. Finally Scorpion releases the hold as Rat, bloodied across his arm and his head as well, and he still has had no offense thus far in this match.*
Ray: I dont believe Rat has had the chance to show any offense in this match!
*Scorpion gets off the car and stalks Rat, circling the hood of the car, pacing back and forth before finally grabbing Rat and drags him over to the truckers entrance. Scorpion tosses Rat up against the large door before lifting it up, allowing access to the building. Scorpion picks up Rat and drops him with T-bone suplex and Rat lands right underneath the door where Scorpion lets it drop on Rat! He picks it up and slams it down one more time! As Scorpion lifts the door up, Rat rolls away, getting away from both Scorpion and the door. As Rat continues to crawl away, they end up both back in the parking lot. Scorpion picks Rat up and leans him right up against one of the XHF transport trucks. Scorpion gets right up in the face of Rat and looks like hes ready to strike when suddenly Prodigy, obviously had enough of the Scorpion onslaught towards Rat, clocks Scorpion from behind! Prodigy quickly grabs Scorpion and tosses him into the truck. As Scorpion bounces back, Prodigy comes out of nowhere with a Taste of Glory on Scorpion! Prodigy continually kicks Scorpion on the ground, as the official, though its no disqualification, is trying to regain some order in this match as he tries to pull Prodigy off of Scorpion. Prodigy eventually backs off of Scorpion and he turns to Rat, helping him to his feet, although Rat is out on his feet, he is at least standing. Prodigy gets right up in Rats face trying to snap him out of his daze and eventually Rat is able to throw his arms up, telling Prodigy to back off. As Prodigy turns away, Rat is able to take a now standing Scorpion down with a hard clothesline. Rat follows right through with the clothesline and leans right up against the wall, trying to gain back some strength. Prodigy, satisfied with his results, takes off back to the locker room area and Rat picks up Scorpion, dragging him towards the arena entrance. Rat reaches the door and stops right there, looking back at Scorpion. Rat takes a step back before tossing Scorpion head first through the glass in the doorway!*
Millennium: And his head goes through the doorway!
*Scorpion reveals the blood on his forehead as Rat drags Scorpion inside the arena. Rat bounces Scorpion off the wall, sending him further ahead and back towards the ring area. The two come out from under the stage, and end up beside the ramp, at the other side of the ramp is the dirt piles in which they must bury the other in, in order to win. Rat bounces the head of Scorpion off the steel ramp and Scorpion staggers back right out to ringside. Rat gets to ringside where he grabs Scorpion and flips him over with a belly to belly suplex. Rat is slow to his feet, but does beat Scorpion there, wiping the blood from his forehead. Rat walks out along to the side of the ring where the chair Scorpion used earlier is still sitting. He slides the chair into the ring, where he then comes around and tosses Scorpion back in as well. Rat picks up the chair but Scorpion, throwing all that energy into this one, lunges up, and punches the chair back into the head of Rat. Rat staggers into the ropes where Scorpion comes back with an Irish whip and as Rat comes back, connects with an Xtreme Neckbreaker!*
Ray: What a neckbreaker!
*Scorpion falls over the top rope where he takes a moment to breathe and catch his breath. Rat is attempting to get up, as he gets to his knees Scorpion, shoves Rat into the corner with a few hard rights. He then tosses Rat into the far corner and follows him in, connecting with a huge Scorpion Splash! As Rat, Scorpion takes him down with a spine buster and looks to be locking in the Scorpion Lock all over again when Prodigy comes back!*
King: And here comes Prodigy!
*Prodigy slides into the ring but this time Scorpion is there to great him with a few right hands. Prodigy is staggered into the ropes where Scorpion, with a few kicks to the side of the ribs of Prodigy, also knocks him onto the corner. He sends Prodigy across to the far corner and gives him a Scorpion Splash as well! As Prodigy staggers out from the corner, he is hit with a Scorpion Plex!*
Mongo: Scorpion will not back down from this fight!
*Scorpion crawls to the outside where he grabs the steel chair, that had been used earlier several times. As he enters the ring, Rat is to his knees and he sits straight up, begging for forgiveness from Scorpion. Scorpion though, relentless in his attack, cracks the chair right over the skull of Rat! Rat is completely out when Scorpion turns around and sees Prodigy, using the ropes to help himself up. As Prodigy gets to his feet, he turns around and he gets hit over the head with the chair as well! Prodigy falls right out to the outside and Scorpion walks over, stalking the unconscious Rat Bastard. Scorpion raises the chair, looking to strike Rat again when "Fear" by Disturbed hits the speakers and out comes Reeshi, who has obviously had enough as well!*
Mongo: God damn interfearers!
*Reeshi slides into the ring, and Scorpion swings the chair at him. Reeshi ducks and connects with a right hand to Scorpion. Scorpion though, fights back and the two begin to exchange blows in the middle of the ring. Reeshi catches Scorpion with a knee to the gut and looks to setting him up for a Coral Reesh! Reeshi has Scorpion set but Scorpion grabs the legs of Reeshi and flips him over his back. All the mean time, Rat is getting away as he is crawling towards the stage area.*
Mongo: Whats Rat doing!?
*Back in the ring, Reeshi gets up and turns to Scorpion who drops him with a spinebuster and locks in the Scorpion Lock! Reeshi screams trying to fight the pain of the move but eventually the only man to make Reeshi tap, has done it again as Reeshi is tapping on the mat! Reeshi continues to tap as Scorpion keeps the hold locked in*
Ray: Scorpion has lost it!
*Scorpion finally releases the hold and turns to see Rat right at the bottom of the ramp, trying to get away. Scorpion leaves the ring and stalks Rat alongside the ramp as the two are heading towards the grave. Rat, still crawling away from Scorpion, feels his hand reach the dirt below him and suddenly stops. He turns to see Scorpion standing directly behind him! Scorpion snatches up one of the shovels (this one situated along the guardrail. The other is at the top of the grave pile) Rat gets to his knees and tries to run from the now armed Scorpion, but Scorpion smacks Rat across the back of the head of Rat, breaking the shovel! Rat lays unconscious on the side of the grave pile and Scorpion drags him up to the top. He stops right in front of the grave itself, the hole dug before the match even got under way. Scorpion grabs Rat and pulls him to his knees, setting him up for a powerbomb right into the grave! Just as Scorpion is about to lift Rat, he is suddenly straight to the mat and pieces of that second shovel explodes over the back of his head! Reeshi stands behind him, obviously the one that struck Scorpion and Prodigy comes up, grabbing Rat and begins to drag him away. Reeshi continues to stand there, staring down at Scorpion, who is out cold face down in the grave pile. Reeshi turns to see Prodigy letting go of Rat, laying him on top of the steel stage, waving Reeshi on. Reeshi joins Prodigy in taking off with Rat backstage and the match is ruled a no contest!*
Mongo: Oh dear, Scorpion isnt gonna like this!
*Suddenly, the arena is plunged into total darkness and the crowd looks on intently with anticipation as then momentarily, the demonic "Red Fist" Symbol of Rage appears on the Xtreme Tron. Mere moments later, the screen turns to static and the tension builds as the following words of Godsmack lead man Sully Erna, along with multiple guitar riffs begin echoing throughout the building. As the rocking lyrics go, BOOM! A HUGE explosion rocks the arena and the entire crowd is on it's feet as the chorus of Godsmack's brand spankin' new single "Straight Out Of Line" hits the PA! Meanwhile, on the screen in tune with the chorus, the words "FIST-OF-RAGE!" appear!!! Moments later, the curtain flips back and the sadistic couple of Rage and gorgeous wife Torrie Wilson step out onto the top of the stage! Following this, the two then strut cockily on down the ramp to an overwhelming chorus of boos from this entire sellout crowd joining them tonight. Thereafter, the duo then finally reach the ring area where, once inside, the legendary Bald-Headed Behemoth sets off to do his signature 4 corners salute taunt, raising his fists defiantly to the crowd and taunting them sadistically from each and every corner. Meanwhile, Torrie stands outside the ring taunting off in her own ways to this multitude of loyal XHFers, all the while cheering her husband on endlessly as always...*
Mongo: Go Rage go!
*The lights in the arena go out as the fans get to their feet in anticipation of who is to come. Suddenly... BOOM! Huge flames shoot out of the stage as the fans are shocked then begin cheering as "Don't Tread On Me" by Metallica blasts over the sound system. They curtain flips open and Martyr walks out on stage to a huge pop from the fans. He runs down the ramp slapping hands with everybody on the side and makes his way into the ring.*
Mongo: I like Martyr too though, damn
XHF Ultimate Championship
Rage -Vs- Martyr
*The two half brothers stare each other down as the bell is sounded. Rage holds out a hand to shake as a sign of sportsmanship and immediately the crowd begins to boo and tell Martyr not to do it. Martyr hesitantly reaches in to shake and a clean shake is taken. Rage turns around and plays to the crowd on how he is such a great guy then turns right back around and levels Martyr with a clothesline while he was not paying attention. Rage stomps away on the Ultimate Champion then steps on his face and digs his foot in before the ref tells him to stop. The ref backs Rage off and Rage shoves the Ref aside and runs at Martyr clotheslining him over the top rope. Martyr falls to the outside and the ref warns Rage not to go outside. Rage keeps the ref distracted as Torrie moves around the ring and clocks Martyr in the head with the heel of her shoe. The spike on the end of the shoe causes a gash in the forehead of Martyr and Martyr slowly begins to bleed as Rage slides out of the opposite side of the ring. Martyr gets to his feet and wipes the blood away from his face as Rage sneaks up behind Martyr around the side of the ring and grabs Martyr from behind with a waist lock. Rage attempts a German Suplex, but Martyr is able to block and reverse around into a waist lock of his own. Rage tried to break the lock, but he is unsuccessful as Martyr lifts him up and drops him down across his knee with an inverted atomic drop.*
Mongo, Ray, & King: OUCH!
Millennium: Been there, done that
*Rage is still standing but holding his lower extremities, which leaves the door wide open for Martyr. Martyr grabs Rage by the back of the head and rams Rage head first into the ring post using the ring as a weapon. Martyr rolls Rage in the ring then shortly follows. Rage gets to his feet but is staggering around as Martyr just stalks him. Rage turns around right into the arms Martyr and right into a strong sambo Suplex. Martyr makes the cover but Torrie jumps on the apron and gets the attention of the ref before he can start the count. Martyr sees this and gets up and into Torries face. Torrie yells back at Martyr and Martyr turns away from her brushing her off, but Torrie grabs him by the shoulder and spins him around then slaps him right across the mouth. Martyr just kind of shakes it off then grabs her by the head and tosses her in the ring. The ref gets in Martyrs face and pleads with him not to hurt her but Martyr just pushes through and lifts Torrie to her feet. He holds her by her hair and points to the top rope signaling for the Army Driver, but from behind Rage hits him with a low blow.*
Ray, King, & Mongo: YOWCH!
Millennium: Oh, is that what this paper is for?
Mongo: Yeah, we all read them off in order, in unison
*Martyr is bent over and Rage sends Torrie out of the ring then drops Rage to the mat with a DDT. Rage makes the cover but Martyr gets his foot on the ropes. Rage is infuriated by this and drags Martyr to the middle of the ring and makes another pin fall attempt, but Martyr kicks out this time. Rage slams his hands on the mat in anger then pulls himself as well as Martyr to their feet. Rage kicks Martyr in the stomach then sends him into the corner turnbuckle with and Irish whip. Martyr makes a huge impact with the corner and falls into a sitting position as Rage slowly moves in. Rage grabs the top ropes with both hands and begins stomping a mud hole in Martyr. He stomps Martyr till he lays flat on his back then Rage drags him away from the ropes and makes yet another pin attempt only to have Martyr roll the shoulder just before the count of three. Rage slowly gets to his feet now in a bit calmer state as he begins to climb the top rope. Rage flies off with an elbow drop but connects with all mat as Martyr is able to roll out of the way. Martyr lays stomach first on the mat as Rage rolls out of the ring holding his elbow in pain. Martyr begins to pull himself up on the ring ropes as Rage slides back in the ring cradling his right arm. Martyr turns and the two begins exchanging punches. Martyr gets the upper hand and whips Rage into the ropes and upon return locks in a sleeper on Rage.*
Ray: And Martyr gets the sleeper in!
*Rage waves his arms around as he slowly fades but he is able to muscle his way towards the ropes and grab the top rope making martyr break the hold. The blood of Martyr now covers the back of Rage as Rage leans on the ropes in agony. Martyr grabs Rage by the back of his head and rubs his face into the top rope until the ref breaks it. Rage falls back leaning into the corner as Martyr begins to move in on him. Martyr gets down to his knees and drives his shoulder several times into the ribs of Rage. Martyr drags a fallen Rage out of the corner and makes the cover and gets a two as Rage is able to get the shoulder up. Martyr is noticeably upset but ready for more as he gets to his feet and begins to lift Rage up as well, but once Rage is to his knees he drives his shoulder into the stomach of Martyr and rams him into the corner turnbuckle. Rage then falls back flat on his back as Martyr falls into the sitting position in the corner. The ref begins to count to ten as both men seem knocked out. At about 6 Martyr pulls himself up on the ring ropes and to his feet while Rage nearly at the same time rolls over and gets to his hands and knees. Martyr moves over to Rage and lifts him up the rest of the way then goes for a whip to the ropes, but Rage pulls Martyr towards him and up onto his shoulders. Rage goes to spin Martyr around but his shoulder gives way and Martyr falls onto his feet behind Rage and Martyr grabs Rage from behind hitting Knocking on Deaths Door. Martyr slowly makes the cover and gets the three.*

XHF Rumble Match
All XHF Superstars Entered In The Match
-Winner gets XHF Title shot at Night Of Champions II-
King: I can exclusively reveal that this year's XHF Rumble match will contain forty XHF Superstars, making it the largest battle royal match in professional wrestling!
Cole: What a way to start off the Road to NOC II!
Godsmack's "I Stand Alone" hits the arena as the lights dim and Scorpion steps out onto the stage. He walks half way down the ramp and stops. White lights flash and the sound of thunder roars over the music. He continues to the ring and hops onto the ring apron then over the top rope into the ring.
Cole: Scorpion elected HIMSELF to be the first man to enter the match. I'm as big a fan of Scorpion as any, but even I've got to say he's just being dumb here.
King: Not if you consider that he may not want to win this match. He may just see this as a test for himself to see how far he can go. Now who's going to be second?
The lights in the arena go out as "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence begins to play over the sound system. Mist fills the stage as white lights underneath slowly begin to come on during the soft piano part of the song. Soon a single green laser light beams out and it splits up as the guitar riffs begin to play. The lasers begin to dance with the music and it continues until the part of the song that is silent comes. Suddenly... BOOM! Silver pyros shoot out of the stage as the heavy part of the song begins. The words "Joey Ryan" are spelled out over the Xtreme-Tron as the curtain flips open and Joey Ryan walks out onto the stage. Joey poses on top of the ramp he begins to head down to the ring. He enters and Joey goes to pose on top of the turnbuckles before he hops off and prepares for the match.
Cole: Joey Ryan. The future of the industry up against the present. What a way to start the match!
Reeshi: He isn't the present, I am.
King: With all Joey's claims of winning the Rumble, perhaps he forgot that he has to get past the likes of Scorpion to do so!
The bell rings. Scorpion and Joey Ryan circle each other. Scorpion advances into a kick to the stomach. Whip off the ropes by Ryan. A superkick attempts to catch Scorpion on the return but the veteran ducks around, grabbing a full nelson for a quick Scorpion Plex. Joey Ryan raises his leg behind him hitting Scorpion's crotch. He then darts behind his opponent with a full nelson of his own hitting a full nelson slam. Scorpion is more affected by the low blow than the following move.
King: Scorpion is down. Maybe we'll see another 450 splash from the future of the industry like on Pyro - that was awesome!
Cole: Of course going to the top rope in a battle royal situation is high risk not only in terms of health but also the match. Having said that Scorpion is the only other man in this match so Joey has got the breathing space.
Joey locks in the STF. Scorpion reaches for and grabs the ropes but the referee has no obligation to break the hold. Realizing this Scorpion uses to ropes to roll them both over, where Scorpion can and does escape. Joey Ryan approaches Scorpion again and places his head between his own legs for the Amnesiac. Scorpion lifts him for a back body drop to counter, but holds onto his legs with Joey's torso hanging behind him. He runs into the ropes, causing Joey's torso to fly over them, but Joey's legs are wrapped firmly around Scorpion's waist.
BUZZ! Demise of Sanity by Black Label Society hits and Zakk Wylde runs down.
Cole: It's one half of the XHF Undisputed Tag Team Champions!
King: Ah, but is it the weaker half?
Wylde approaches the struggling duo and delivers the Kick to Hell, stunning Scorpion and sending Joey flying.
King: Could this be the end of the future, as we know it?
Joey lands on the apron as Zakk works on Scorpion before climbing up the nearest turnbuckle and flying off onto the two. Scorpion evades and the impact on Zakk nearly sends him over.
Reeshi: Dammit, I have never failed to enjoy see Joy Ryan suffer ever since he hit that Amnesiac on me.
Joey gets a full head of steam by bouncing off the opposite ropes and tries to finish the job with a clothesline, but walks into an Xtreme Neckbeaker by Scorpion. A club to the back of the neck from Zakk Wylde takes Scorpion by surprise, but he is able to fight back with right hands.
BUZZ! 'The People That We Love' by Bush hits as Torturous Tom emerges.
Tom steps up on the apron and enters the ring with a slingshot splash on Joey Ryan.
King: Tom hasn't forgotten that loss on Pyro. Whatever happened to that cookie anyway?
Tom backs away off the ropes to catch Joey Ryan who is getting to his feet with a spear, but his target dives behind him on the return and hits him with a Dead End. A side Russian leg sweep keeps Zakk down as Scorpion climbs up to the second rope. He signals for a missile dropkick but doesn't notice Wylde getting up and suffers a strike to the stomach as a result. Wylde climbs up with him and wraps his hand around Scorpion's neck. Poised on top, he lifts Scorpion for a chokeslam. Scorpion reacts by kicking Zakk in the crotch and then T-bone suplexing him to the outside!
BUZZ!
Cole: Zakk Wylde is out, now who's in?
"Bulls On Parade" by Rage Against The Machine hits as Ron 'Big Time' Knox emerges.
Cole: Haven't seen this guy in a while.
Ron slides into the ring in between Joey Ryan's legs. An Amnesiac gives him a harsh welcome to the match. Joey taunts over the fallen figure, and a missile dropkick from Scorpion knocks him to the ground too. He picks up Ryan's body and takes him to the edge of the ring where he tries to force him over. Tom approaches from behind and hits a dropkick. The sneak attack is unsuccessful, but it gives Joey the opportunity to escape the threat. A superkick from Joey dumps Tom on top of Ron.
BUZZ! 'The Energy' by Audiovent hits - it's Chris Williams!
Cole: One half of the tag title #1 contenders narrowly missed out on his chance to meet one half of his future opponents!
Williams springboards onto Joey and Scorpion's shoulders and jumps off them into a body press on Tom!
Cole: I love the cruisers!
King: And these two have Latino blood in them, so there's more to come!
Ryan and Scorpion go at each other's throats while the two cruisers get up. Tom grabs William's arm and climbs the ropes before hitting a no-legged springboard backflip into an armdrag. Chris Williams holds onto the arm and hits an armdrag back before jumping onto Tom's back and spinning around into a perfect rana. Tom gets up and dropkicks Williams into the ropes, but instead of falling out the ring he comes back with a 360 spin flying headscissors. Williams sees Knox getting up to his feet and hits him with a swinging neckbreaker.
BUZZ! Man In A Box hits as Hardcore Harry runs out. He stops when he sees Tom in the ring. The two stare at each other, and Harry fetches two chairs from under the ring before entering. Tom backs away, but Harry throws him a chair so they have one each.
Cole: What sportsmanship! Has their EVER been any friendly rivalry like this? Their feud going into the original NOC got people talking good things, and neither of them has forgotten it!
Harry lunges with his chair, Tom ducks, dropping his chair and grabbing the reverse facelock. Harry blocks the Tominator attempt by spinning out of the hold and grabbing a reverse facelock of his own. The Roll the Dice attempt is then blocked by Tom who pushes Harry into the turnbuckle.
Cole: They still know each other so well.
Harry bounces out of the corner to the floor, where he picks up his chair and stands. He sees that Tom has climbed up top and barely escapes the Van Tominator attempt.

Martyr slides outside, but only fetches a chair from under the apron before returning. Scorpion and Destruction back off seeing him, but the chair shot lands on Reeshi's head. Martyr throws the chair away, and waves his arm as if to say 'carry on' before stepping out of the ring and exiting. Scorpion and Destruction look at each other before exchanging right hands. Scorpion is the first to lose his balance. Destruction hits a backbreaker, but Scorpion is able to get up from it. Destruction runs towards Scorpion but is thrown into the corner and hit with the Scorpion Splash.
King: The impact from that move nearly sent Destruction out alone!
Scorpion lifts up Destruction's leg trying to raise it over the top rope. Destruction slaps Scorpion in the face. Scorpion turns away and Destruction runs but only into a back elbow. Scorpion lifts Destruction so that he is sat on the top rope facing the outside. Scorpion faces the centre of the ring and wraps his arm around Destruction's neck. He raises his arm to the crowd, and hits the Super Mega Death Move!
Cole: Oh my god! Jesus Christ he's dead!
King: It's over! You can't win if you can't breathe!
Scorpion raises his torso, and tries to pull Destruction's body out of the turnbuckle. He gets up to his knees and leans Destruction's body up against the corner. He is then spun around and hit with the Pain Killer by Reeshi!
Cole: Is there such a thing as a fair match anymore?
Destruction tries to lift himself out of the corner but can't. Reeshi bends down slowly and lifts Scorpion's head off of the ground. He builds up some strength and runs with it to the ropes, but Scorpion somehow puts his foot on the ropes and hits Reeshi with the Scorpion Plex! Reeshi rolls out of the ring.
Cole: Just two men remain!
Scorpion moves over to Destruction in the corner. A reflex right hand from Destruction catches him in the face. Destruction wanders out with a glazed look in his eyes. The two stand stunned, and Destruction lifts up Scorpion into the Last Remaining Light!
Cole: Scorpion's taken enough already!
Without the strength to continue the hold, Destruction leans back over the ropes. Scorpion falls but his feet fall inside the ring. Scorpion grabs Destruction in a full nelson and sends him flying over the ropes with a release Scorpion Plex!
Winner of the XHF Rumble: Scorpion
King: Destruction is dead!
Cole: And Scorpion is in the main event of NOC II!!!
Scorpion falls down in the center of the ring as the crowd erupts around him. Getting up on one leg, then the other, he finally stands. He calls for a microphone, and a stagehand throws him one. He catches it, and the crowd quietens down for his words.
Scorpion: "I stand alone."
Cheers erupt again as he drops the microphone and the sounds of "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack fill the arena.
Cole: We have to go, but what an event! See you all on Gastro for the next stop on the Road to NOC II.
