(The EFW opening is played. The crowd is scanned by the cameras, showing signs dedicated to the wrestlers, before settling on the announcers at ringside)



JB : "Welcome to St. Valentine's Day Massacre, fans!! And we've got a great show full of violence for all you guys who spent the day with your girl!"


BH : "God knows I need to injest some violence after a day with my wife. That woman could bore a wall to death. Whenever we're on the road and she starts I feel like driving the car into a telephone pole just to shut her up. I actually started to once, but stopped short and told her I did it because I swerved to miss a dog.."


JB : "Buck.. we're on. Live."


BH : "We are!?... this is gonna be a long night."


JB : "Fans, here's our card."

Hateworks vs Team Future Shock


(Vice President Red Dog is shown in the backstage area)


RD : "Fans, this is the VP here. After the chaos that we had last week, until we can get some new security and a new president, I've decided to tighten the reigns on some of our uncontrollable factions. It goes like this tonight: if any member of the Pantheon gets involved in the Perdition title match, Onslaught will be disqualified, Atlas will be kicked out of the Nightmare Invitational, and the entire team will be removed from title contention for one year. If any of the Sickos do, Vermin will lose his title shot at Armageddon 4. Same thing for the main event: if Nomad gets involved to help Idol, he'll be stripped of the US title and banned from contention for a year. If any of the Sickos get involved, Tyrant will be stripped of the title AND Vermin will lose his title shot at Armageddon. Thanks for your time!"


Non-Title
Hateworks vs Team Future Shock
Sanosuke walks out with the bloodstained sash around his forehead (it's one of those long ones, where the "tails" hang down to the lower back area) while Shuji waves a "Future Shock" flag. When they reach the corner, Sanosuke removes the sash and ties it around the post of their corner. Imori charged Bo, who started out for Hateworks, and knocked him down with a hammer blow to the back. He tried to follow up with a high angle boston crab, but Bo kicked him out of the attempt and got to his feet. Bo punched Imori hard, then snap suplexed him over. The two traded takedowns, then Bo slammed Imori into the corner and hit him with a running zero-sen kick! Imori tagged out to Yagami. Bo whipped both of them to the opposite corner, but Imori hit first and slowed Yagami down so they didn't ram into each other. When Bo came running in, Team Future Shock caught him with a double drop kick!
Double Drop Kick!
Yagami kept a step ahead of Bo, hitting a cyclone whip and then dodging Bo's attempt at a suicide drop kick in retaliation for the double team, making Bo fly through the air and land hard on his backside and drawing a laugh from the crowd. Bo managed to slip behind Yagami and land a back suplex, then hooked him into a kataha-jime. Yagami fought the hold and Bo never got it fully locked in. Bo then threw Yagami over and out of the ring with a belly to belly suplex! The crowd booed, and Bo gave one whole side of the arena the double bird in response. Weehawk grabbed a sledgehammer and laid in in one of the neutral corners. Yagami took Bo down with another cyclone and a DDT when he re-entered the ring, only to be snap suplexed over right afterwards nd caught with a DDT of Bo's. Yagami then made a terrible error and used a reverse waterwheel drop on Bo.. a suplex-style manuver. Bo jumped to his feet in rage. Yagami's next attempt at offense was dodged by Bo, who swung around behind and rattled Yagami's teeth with a German Bo-Plex!!
German Bo-Plex
Bo then walked over to Weehawk on the apron and said something pointing at Yagami, then mimed a knockout with his hands: apparently, Hateworks were now shooting not to beat Team Furture Shock, but to put one of them out of commision. Bo tagged in Weehawk and tossed Yagami to the outside, where he pounded him over the head with a chair while Weehawk distracted the referee. Imori came in and Weehawk headed him off with a series of machine-gun shoudas. Yagami caught Bo with a cyclone and a drop kick to the back of the head, then escaped back to the ring. Weehawk was waiting for him and caught him into the reverse tiger driver, planting him face-first! Weehawk went out to the apron and nailed Yagami with a springboard cross body block, then hooked him from behind and slammed him over with a half-nelson suplex!! Yagami countered a piledriver in desperation and tagged out to Imori. Weehawk met him with the shoudas again, but Imori caught him with a hip throw. He tried to follow up with a drop kick, but Weehawk caught him right in the jaw with a spin kick, and then another one to drop him on his back. Weehawk then ran at the dazed Imori and caught him with a running jumping DDT!! But no cover was attempted. Imori used the hip throw again, but Weehawk responded with a piledriver and a knee across the back of the head. Weehawk roundhouse kicked Imori in the back of the head, then tossed him to the outside. He ran to attempt a dive but Yagami cut him off. It didn't stop Bo from jumping down and giving the vulerable Imori a THROWING GERMAN BO-PLEX on the concrete floor!! Bo looked suprised when Imori got up from the move.
Throwing German Bo-Plex
Not only did he get up, but he suprised Bo with a fisherman's suplex on the floor! Suplex being the key word there, as Bo was so angry he lifted Imori and gave him a STEINER SCREWDRIVER on the concrete!!! No one expected Imori to continue.. but he did, pulling himself up on the apron, to the applause of the audience! Back in the ring, Imori tried a satellite head scissors on Weehawk, but his feet were slapped away. Imori managed to counter a piledriver into a back body drop, but he couldn't resist the reverse tiger driver that came next. Weehawk pulled him up and crossed his arms above his head, signalling the end, but when he tried his move Imori countered with a drop toe hold! When Weehawk stood, Imori caught him with a spin kick to the gut. Imori grabbed a side headlock, but that proved to be a terrible mistake - Weehawk stood up with Imori on his shoulders - LAST CUP OF SORROW!
Finish it today
Weehawk told the referee to count Imori out. He didn't move at first, but then he did, sitting up to his knees and screaming. Weehawk looked over at Bo, who was as suprised as anyone else. As Imori shakily made it to his feet, Weehawk blasted him with a roundhouse, then hit the ropes and gave him a high jumping double knee drop. Weehawk whipped Imori in and caught him on the return with a sickening original frankensteiner, then pulled him up and gave him a half-nelson suplex!! Weehawk stopped to take a breather and the referee checked Imori. But his heart still beat, and thus he would not give in, shoving the referee away and waving at Weehawk to bring it on. Weehawk shrugged and grabbed the sledgehammer from the corner! The referee tried to take it, and in the confusion Imori used the hip toss on Weehawk and put on a crossface chickenwing. Weehawk fought out quickly, and when Imori tried to press Weehawk kicked him and delivered a double underhook piledriver!! Despite Bo's request Weehawk went for the cover, and Yagami came in to break it up. Bo charged across and beat Yagami down, giving him two powerbombs and a death valley driver without ever letting go of him! Weehawk knocked Imori down with a wicked shouda, then used a reverse DDT, then dragged him over to the hammer. He hooked Imori and gave him a JUMPING PILEDRIVER on the hammer head!! This seriously hurt Imori, who rolled around holding his neck. Weehawk just waved in the boos he got and laughed.
Piledriver on the hammer injures Imori
Weehawk dragged his injured opponent closer to the corner, climbed the buckles, and gave him a 450 splash!!! He then grabbed the hammer to finish the job on Imori for good, but Imori punched it out of his grasp! Weehawk hooked him for a piledriver, but Imori back body dropped him over the top to the outside! Yagami immediately jumped down and ran over to Weehawk, only to get a double underhook piledriver for himself! Weehawk then gave Yagami a reverse frankensteiner on the floor, leaving him laying. If nothing else, Yagami had bought some time for Imori to rest. Weehawk returned to the ring and went to working punching Imori in the groin. Weehawk pulled him up and gave the cross sign again, going for the coup de grace, but again Imori avoided it with the drop toe hold counter!! Weehawk fell neck-first on the bottom rope. Imori took advantage of the lucky break and caught Weehawk as he stood with a URANAGE!!! The fans went crazy even though Imori fell holding his neck again due to the impact. Bo suddenly had a worried look on his face.
Uranage!!
Weehawk was up before Imori and tagged in Bo, this time Weehawk giving the sign for the knockout. When Imori came in, Weehawk caught him up, Bo grabbed the injured neck and Hateworks delivered the PINEBOX EXPRESS!!! The crowd gasped and the referee immediately ran over to check on Imori's condition.
PINEBOX EXPRESS!
There was simply no way Imori could go on.... but he did. Pulling himself up on the ropes, barely able to stand, he refused to quit, his pride and fighting spirit too strong. Bo went for a Bo-Plex, but Imori countered with the drop toe hold and locked in the high angle boston crab!! Imori screamed as he pulled down, trying to apply whatever strength he had left on the hold. Bo was fairly fresh and turned out of it quickly. Imori backed him into the ropes, but Bo reversed the whip. Bo hit the opposite ropes and caught Imori with a crushing WESTERN LARIAT, then pulled him up and gave him a THROWING GERMAN BO-PLEX that sent him rolling out of the ring. Bo sat on his knees, winded. Yagami jumped down to the floor to help his friend. Imori looked up and saw the FSW flag sitting by the pole. Then he gritted his teeth and forced himself to his hands and knees, and then to his feet, rolling back into the ring. Bo shook his head in amazement. Bo whipped Imori to the ropes and slammed him on the return with a uranage, then went for the cover!! Yagami probably should have let it go, but maybe he sensed Bo's resolve weakening when he went for the pin instead of continuing for the KO he wanted. Yagami ran in the broke up the pin. Bo chased him out, then just beat Imori to the canvas with his fists. He hauled Imori back to his feet and tried for a Bo-Plex, only for Imori to roll forward into a pin!! Bo kicked out on two, then gave Imori a T-BONE BO-PLEX!! Imori then shoved Bo into the ropes and caught him when he came back with a belly to belly suplex, a direct insult!!
Belly to Belly Suplex!
Bo was up before Imori and beat his poor opponent into the dirt with vicious punches... then he grabbed the hammer! Bo picked Imori up and slammed the sledgehammer into his head with a loud THUD! and Imori crumbled to the mat. The referee was about to call for the bell when he saw Yagami begging him not to. Against his better judgement, the referee held off, and soon Imori was struggling to his feet to the amazement of everyone watching. Bo came over, and Imori caught him in a double underhook and gave him another belly to belly suplex!! Imori then drop kicked Bo.. and climbed to the top! Even his partner was telling him not to, but he did anyway: Imori came flying off with a MOONSAULT onto Bo!!!
Moonsault!
It wasn't enough to keep Bo down for the three, but it was enough to make him tag! Weehawk came back in as "Big Poppa" Imori gave Bo ANOTHER belly to belly suplex! Weehawk brutally kicked Imori down, then climbed to the top himself and flew off with a FIREBIRD SPLASH across Imori's back!! Weehawk then grabbed the hammer in the ring. Imori stood and THUD! the hammer came down... but Imori stood!! Perhaps he was possessed by the spirit of his ancestors or something, but Imori stood with fists cleched and screamed, it took a second hammer shot to put him down!! Weehawk looked at Bo who just shrugged in suprise. Weehawk dropped the hammer on the mat and gave Imori another piledriver on it. After slamming Imori in the corner, Weehawk backed up and ran in for the shining wizard.. but Imori dodged!! Weehawk slammed into the corner at full speed. Imori tried to press the attack but Weehawk dumped him to the outside. Weehawk gave him a high-speed twisted style backdrop on the concrete... and he got up. Weehawk rolled back in the ring and Imori followed him, throwing Bo back out with a belly to belly and then hitting Weehawk with a double underhook one!!
Suplex Madness!
Somewhere in the chaos a broken board got tossed in the ring. Weehawk piledrived Imori on it... and he got up. Weehawk whipped him into the corner, following up with a high angle tiger driver. Weehawk then jumped to the top and gave Imori a 450 splash to the back, then ran up the buckles and gave him a backflipping senton.... and Imori pulled himself up on the ropes. Weehawk pulled a screwdriver out of his boot, and after hauling back, JAMMED it into Imori's head!! It stuck there for a minute before falling out.... but Imori did not fall, only dropping to one knee. Weehawk just stared at him, blood flowing down his face, totally out of ideas. Bo jumped in the ring, scooped him up and CAPTURE SUPLEXED him to the canvas. Imori lay limp. Bo and Weehawk looked at him cautiously as blood poured from the cut on his head.

And then, after three sledehammer shots, one screwdriver to the face, countless neck bumps, fifteen minutes after his neck had been injured and almost twenty eight minutes after the opening bell, Sanosuke Imori finally stopped getting up.

Shuji rushed into the ring to help him. Hateworks were pronounced the winner by TKO. After Hateworks had gone and the paramedics arrived, and after Shuji had stopped the bleeding on his head with some gauze, Sanosuke was sitting in mid-ring, barely conscious. The paramedics wanted to check him out throughly before they moved him. He motioned to the ring announcer, who kneeled down with the mic. He held it for Sanosuke. Sano managed to get the following sentance out between exhausted, gasping breaths:

Sanosuke Imori : "....... I just....... want to say.... to the fans .............................. I'm sorry... I let you all down....."


Amazingly, Sanosuke leaves the arena on his feet, with the help of Shuji and Andy Kojima. The arena gave Sanosuke a standing ovation.

That did it

US Title #1 Contenders Match
Kirk Adams vs Mylandah Arkar Walder
Adams came right out of the gate attacking, but was countered at every turn by Walder. She blocked a punch and decked him to the mat, the countered a back switch attempt into a bulldog. Adams landed a shouda but was lifted and slammed hard. Adams hit a good shot to the torso, but Walder slammed him head-first into the corner. When he tried to punch his way out, she blocked and decked him down. After a whip across to the other corner, Walder gave Adams a pair of kicks to the midsection. Walder tried to spin kick the dazed Adams but he still had enough presense of mind to block it. She slammed him again, then gave him a nasty thrust to the throat into a cover for one. Another pair of kicks followed. Adams got in a slam of his own, but Walder gave him another vicious shot to the throat. Adams kept coming like a trooper with another slam, then hooked Walder into a headlock and punched her a couple of times. This made her really mad, she sprang back up from the mat with a screw high kick!!
Screw High Kick!
Walder, fully in control, lifted him onto her shoulders and then brought him down stomach-first across her knee, driving the air out of him. A shoulder neckbreaker was followed by a sick-looking jumping high kick on the defenseless Adams. Walder must have needed a rest then, because she dropped and applied an armbar instead of continuing the high impact attack. Adams may have sensed her getting winded, because when he fought to his feet, he threw her to the ropes and caught her with a kitchen sink kneelift! A camel clutch followed, but Walder powered out. Adams went straight back to the body with a rush of punches and then another kneelift that sent Walder flipping to the mat. Adams then worked the Cyber Blow, drilling Walder in the body with punches before clocking her to the mat. As she lay on the mat holding her ribs, Adams dropped down over top of her, as if to mime a kiss, but this enraged her even further. Grabbing him onto her shoulder, she stood up and drove him down with the Destiny Driver!!
Destiny Driver
Walder must have sustained some damage to her power, because Adams popped right up from the Driver and gave her a high-angle nodawa otashi! Adams then climbed to the top turnbuckle and nailed her with a flying body splash, getting a two count. Walder whipped him across and caught him coming back with a very Vermin or Ron Simmons-esque spinebuster, bouncing him off the mat, then applied the texas cloverleaf!! Adams kicked and fought her, and she was not able to apply the hold as well as she could have, eventually having to let it go before Adams gave up. Adams threw her into the buckles, knocking her dizzy, and then gave her a samoan drop that even further knocked the wind out of her and sent her rolling to the outside. Both took a short breather, but when Walder returned Adams lifted her for another samoan drop! Walder's midsection was in serious pain. Adams then utilized a running powerslam to damage it even more. Adams put her in the corner, but she scooped him up and gave him a second Destiny Driver as he came in for the attack! Both wrestlers were down for while after this. The fans encouraged Mylandah to get up, probably more out of dislike for Adams. Both got to their feet about the same time, and Walder scooped Adams up for a third time! Adams reached over and thumbed her right in the eye, causing her to let him drop. Adams then launched himself into a spear, ramming his shoulder into Walder's stomach and sending her flipping over his back to the mat. Adams quickly made the cover, rolling Walder all the way onto her shoulders, and she couldn't catch her breath to kick out. Adams moved on for the title shot!
Adams gets the win!
RESULT:
Adams d. Walder at 10:43 via pinfall
Experience
Kirk Adams - +5 (Win)
Mylandah Arkar Walder - +1 (Loss)

(Adams high-tails it out of the ring after his victory, blowing a mocking kiss at Mylandah. She starts to follow him until she sees security headed for the ring with her shackles. They surround the ring and first attack like ninjas, one at a time, and meet the same fate. After Mylandah takes out four of them without really leaving the spot she's standing in, one landing on the mat with his head flopping around like his neck was a noodle of spaghetti. They eventually decide to attack her en masse, and even then they lose two more guys to kicks before they tackle her to the canvas and one to a head butt once she's down before get her shackled. They double shackle her just to be safe and carry her kicking and screaming out of the ring)


(As Bane is heading to the ring for his match against Onslaught, Nomad can be seen coming up behind him as he walks. Nomad grabs a chair out of a stack of them, and Bane hears it. He turns just in time to have it slammed into his face! Nomad bashes him repeatedly with the weapon, then starts kicking him out towards the ring, constantly reminding Bane verbally about the end of the tag title match at last Massacre. At one point Bane falls against the wall, and Nomad finishes off the chair by sandwhiching Bane's head between it and the wall. Nomad drags Bane out to the ring and rolls him in to the waiting Onslaught. Right as Onslaught is about to attack, "The ICON" Rick Idol slides into the ring behind him. Onslaught turns only to eat a Legend Killer! Onslaught is downed by the manuver and is slow to move. Idol notices Bane beginning to stir on the mat, grabs his Perdition title belt, and slams it right into his face, putting him back out!! Idol discards the title and leaves as Onslaught is regaining his feet)


Perdition Title Match
Bane vs Onslaught
Bane still was not moving by the time the match started. Onslaught recovered from his one shot a lot faster than Bane did from the thrashing he got and went to work. Onslaught pulled Bane up, pushed him into the ropes and gave him a STONEWALL, the Vader attack, as he came back. Bane bounced off the mat hard. Onslaught slammed him and then dropped to head butt him several times. Bane was caught with a sledgehammer to the back as he tried to stand. Bane managed to slip out the back door on a slam attempt, but Onslaught caught him with a pair of vicious head butts, and then gave him the ol' heave-ho back first into one of the barbed wire boards. Bane slid down on his head, ripping up his back. Onslaught tried to powerbomb him into it after that, but Bane back body dropped him over. Onslaught caught him with more grounded head butts, then gave him a backbreaker and slammed him into the barbed wire board again. Onslaught then put a foot in his back and tried to tear his arms off. Bane finally managed some offense, twisting the arm ripper hold into a form of a cyclone whip, but all he got for the trouble was a crushing body blow that knocked him off his feet. Onslaught then hit the ropes and squashed him to the mat with a body splash! Onslaught then picked up Bane and slammed him with a dominator. Bane wasn't really fighting back, and Onslaught took the oppertunity to arrogantly kick him in the head a few times, urging him to get up. Bane managed a chop, which Onslaught thought was pretty funny, clubbing him with a russian hook in response. Bane finally did something constructive, throwing Onslaught into the barbed wire board. Onslaught came back bloody. He roared, picked Bane up by the back of the head and slammed him into the board with all of his power. Bane bounced back out to center ring, unmoving. Onslaught hauled him up and gave him the heave-ho again onto the board, which Bane again slid down. Onslaught pulled Bane up, slapping him on the head. He pushed Bane into the ropes and caught him coming back with a DEVASTATOR!! Onslaught held on, pulled him up from the mat gave him a SECOND DEVASTATOR!!
Double Devastator!
Onslaught splashed Bane for the cover, only to pull him up on two. He pushed Bane into the ropes and caught him with a THIRD DEVASTATOR, but when he tried for number four Bane just collapsed when he hit the ropes. So Onslaught gave him an Emerald Frosion instead, dropping him on his neck with THE BRIMSTONE! Onslaught leisurely walked around the downed Bane, nudging him with a foot. He didn't respond. Onslaught tried to whip him into the barbed wire again, but Bane put the brakes on and pulled Onslaught in to a short arm clothesline. Onslaught responded by picking him up and throwing him over the top rope and into the barbed wire. Onslaught followed him out and ground his face into the dirt with his boot. Bane struggled back to the ring instead of leaving, grabbing a hammer from under the ring as he rolled back in. It proved a futile effort as Onslaught simply knocked it out of his hands and then gave him a western-style lariat that flipped him. After throwing him face-first into the wire one more time, he gave Bane one more Brimstone and then finally pinned him for the three count.
Futile effort
RESULT:
Onslaught d. Bane at 10:33 via pinfall

Onslaught - +5 (Win)
- +5 (Title)
Bane - +1 (Loss)

(As soon as the bell rings, the Sickos march from the backstage area to the ring. Onslaught is handed the title and thinks about continuing the attack, but thinks again when he sees the small army headed to ringside. Bane is stirring on the mat, but barely. He is removed from the ring by Bo and Weehawk)


JB : "That was quite a thrashing... I wonder what Bane hoped to accomplish by accepting this match at all, Buck?"


BH : "I don't know, but I don't see how it could have succeeded."


(Backstage, the Sickos are helping Bane out of the arena. Bo and Weehawk each have an arm, carrying Bane away. For some reason, Bane begins laughing weakly as the two lift him into Vermin's hummer. Vermin stands outside it with just Hannibal and Tyrant. Vermin grabs a suitcase from the back seat of the hummer and then gives Bo the signal to leave. Vermin turns and marches into the arena with the suitcase in his hands)


BH : "Was he laughing? Christ, he IS sick."

Condo trashed talked at Mercury, who just smirked and backed off, before the bell. Wren tried to offer Condo a handshake, only for Condo to spit on his outstretched hand. Wren took it right to him, twisting his arm and ramming a shoulder into it six or eight times! Condo fired back with a set of texas jabs and a punch to the groin of Wren. Before you knew it, the next guy was in.... and it was "Lucky" Chance O'Daire! When he came into the ring, the first thing he did was assist Condo in giving Wren a double team jumping high kick!!

Pretty soon, the buzzer sounded for the next entrant.... "The Professional" Reid Kalahan! Kalahan immediately slammed both Condo and Alder to the outside, where the two didn't hesitate to mix it up. Adler even whipped Condo hard into the ring steps at one point. Chance drilled Shinozaki with headlock punches and a returing Adler gave him a SHEER DROP BRAINBUSTER! Kalahan put O'Daire in a bow & arrow lock while Shinozaki and Guzman gave Condo a double dropkick. Adler tried to give Kalahan a hurracanrana, only to be powerbombed hard to the mat!! Kalahan released the hold and threw O'Daire out of the ring with a throwing german suplex!! Shinozaki spin kicked a dazed Condo right in the face as Andy Kojima hit the ring, completing the entries! People tossed each other all over the place now as the suplexes really started flying. There were several pins, but few near falls as guys were constantly saved from elimination. Shinozaki got a near fall on Adler with a jackknife hold. Kojima rocked Condo with his finishing manuver, the OROCHI BLITZ, kicking him across the ring. Condo was done. Shinozaki saw him laying on the mat and applied a crucifix armbar. Mercury was over, and they were no where near the ropes. No one was trying to save Condo, all of their attention was elsewhere. After a few moments of trying anything to get out of the hold, all Condo did was make it worse, and he eventually tapped the mat and Mercury called for the bell!
Condo's gone!

(Condo is met in the corridor by his group-mates, but before he can say a single word Onslaught grabs him by the neck and DEVASTATES him through a crate sitting near the wall! Jade is shocked, but she tries to interfere when Atlas goes to continue the attack. Death's Head grabs her by the hair, pulls her head back, and slams her face-first into the wall. She crumbles to the floor. Atlas gives Condo an Atlas Shrugged on the floor, Death's Head uses the Fall of the Axe, then Atlas whips Condo into a western lariat. Onslaught finishes the attack with a Brimstone onto the same crate. When they are done, Potterdam, who had been watching all along, steps over to Condo's limp form and grabs him by the hair. He leans close)


Potterdam : "Your services are no longer required."


(The Pantheon then leaves them both laying)


(The camera suddenly cuts to a different backstage area. The suitcase Vermin had skids around a corner into view, and after it jumps Vermin, covered head to toe in a black leather suit with zippers all over it. His beard sticks out of the bottom of the mask. He has a double-barreled shotgun in his hands. He stalks around the hallways, screaming for Nomad. He kicks open a locker room, points the gun in, doesn't find what he wants and then continues on. He turns a corner, screaming "I'm gonna find youuuu!!.... gonna kill ya!")

(Vermin stops outside a locker room. He listens close at the door, then cracks a smile. He waits and waits, and then blasts the shotgun through the door, leaving a huge hole in it. He listens again, and you can hear a groan come from inside. Vermin smiles again, his face right next to the hole)


Vermin : "GOTCHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!"

(He opens the door and Dangerous Dan falls out into the hallway, a huge bruise on his chest where the apparently rubber buckshot impacted him. Vermin looks down at him and frowns, then looks at the gun. He drops it next to Dan's limp form and walks away)

(The fans go wild for Idol as he is handed the world heavyweight title belt. Tyrant managed to stand, but leans on the top rope, looking out over the crowd and shaking his head, obviously pissed about the outcome. Nomad hits the ring to congratulate his partner, who is sitting and looking at the belt. But following Nomad comes Vermin, still in the leather suit! He jumps in the ring and grabs Nomad by the neck before any real celebration can start. Idol quickly jumps up to help his partner, and in turn Tyrant turns and attacks Idol! Hannibal runs out and pulls Nomad from the ring, the two mixing it up on the floor. Idol is left alone with Vermin and Tyrant in the ring... until Jack Furlong, who wasn't even booked, walks through the curtain with a chair! He slides in the ring and slams the chair into Vermin's knee, knocking him down, then brains him over the head with it! Idol goes down next, and when Tyrant tried to lariat Furlong he gets the chair to the stomach, and then a shot to the back! Furlong throws the chair down and stands over Idol, saying something to him and pointing in his face)
