IRONMAN OF CHAMPIONS 1/21/97 IRONMAN OF CHAMPIONS Round Four: Match #2 GUNS vs HORNET BILL BUCKLEY: Again, Sammy, Mark Windsor is a no show, and he's seriously altering the points in the IRONMAN OF CHAMPIONS! SAMMY BENSON: Hey, one way or the other the little freak was going to leave his mark! Of course I'd rather him do it by,...uh..nevermind. BILL BUCKLEY: Yeah, I think that's about right. Right now, it's quite simply the match that everyone has been waiting for! HORNET and GUNS! Two if not the two biggest names in the sport today! SAMMY BENSON: Don't forget the RED MIDGET.. ::laughs:: BILL BUCKLEY: Over the past year, they've cost each other this title, and now...they battle for it..winner in all likelyhood takes the Gold! Everyone has either heard, or has seen their last encounter! CSWA's FISH FUND XI! Career match, where GUNS shocked everyone by winning, and putting HORNET out of his 'home' so to speak! SAMMY BENSON: Was I there?? I can't remember.. BILL BUCKLEY: Don't start. They've had without a doubt the greatest fued this sport has ever seen, some even say they're both obsessed with each other! But, tonight.. you could say the obsession grows! Both men, want this title dearly! But, feel that they are the best in the business today! SAMMY BENSON: Pretty humble guys, huh... BILL BUCKLEY: Right now, this match has to be the biggest of their careers! HORNET with 30 points..if he loses it's over! He won't be able to win the UNIFIED WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! If GUNS wins, with 50 points, he'll win it! He'll become the UNIFIED WORLD CHAMP! Remember he sits out Round Five, so this is his last shot! Win, and he's champ! Lose and he's not! However...he could pick up 10 pts here and still be champ! Point is, it's his to lose! SAMMY BENSON: Both men are big money wrestlers... HORNET has said recently that it really hasn't bothered him that he got kicked out of the CSWA, but believe me Buckley, it's eating the man alive! BILL BUCKLEY: And GUNS, some say...his win was a fluke...tonight he can get respect and the title in one shot! This is what it's all about, Sammy! SAMMY BENSON: That, and women... BILL BUCKLEY: What about booze? SAMMY BENSON: No, you've had enough! BILL BUCKLEY: Will you stop! Listen to this crowd!! Everyone on their feet!! 100,000 people! HORNET and GUNS staring at each other from across the ring, ohhh this is personal Sammy! SAMMY BENSON: You bet your candy apple butt it's personal! This isn't about wrestling, Buckley..it's war! BILL BUCKLEY: There's the bell, and they charge each other!! In the center of the ring, hammering away! You're right, Sammy this is going to be war! SAMMY BENSON: I'm always right, Buckley, you should know that by now! You don't put two rivals in the ring together, and expect things to be civil! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET, getting the better of the exchance! He shoves GUNS into the corner, savat kick!! Another!! And another!! Now a series of HEART KICKS! (Crowd roars) This is wild!! SAMMY BENSON: This is getting ugly! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET fires GUNS across the ring, and to the opposite corner! He comes the HORNET SPLASH, no!! GUNS moved out of the way, but HORNET caught himself!! HORNET to the middle turnbuckle..clothesline!! ONE...-TWO!! GUNS powers out! SAMMY BENSON: Is it obivious that HORNET wants GUNS?? I haven't seen a butt kicking like this, since the Patriots last made the Super Bowl! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET pumps his fist to the fans, and sends GUNS into the ropes, clothesline attempt, but GUNS ducks.. off the ropes, CLOTHESLINE BY GUNS!! HOLY COW! GUNS stomping away at HORNET! He's fired up! SAMMY BENSON: It took him a couple of minutes, but it looks as if he's finally in the match! BILL BUCKLEY: GUNS, stops for a second to gather himself, scoop slam! Elbow drop! He's taken some of the early sting out of HORNET, no pun intended! SAMMY BENSON: That may be the key to his match...GUNS never got ontrack at FISH FUND, but now it appears he's in this match! BILL BUCKLEY: GUNS isn't wasting any time, he's taking HORNET right to the top rope!! He loves to do damage up there! SAMMY BENSON: Slip in a nut shot, to soften up him.. trust me I know what I'm talking about! BILL BUCKLEY: GUNS...has HORNET on the top turnbuckle..both men standing up there....he hooks the tights, SUPERPLEX!! Oh my goodness! SAMMY BENSON: We've got a new UNIFIED WORLD CHAMPION!! BILL BUCKLEY: GUNS, again going up top! Sammy, HORNET is shaken! He came out with so much intensity in those first few minutes, maybe he did more damage to himself, than GUNS! SAMMY BENSON: Where'd you learn to talk like that? BILL BUCKLEY: Ebonics.... HORNET to his knees, and now his feet..GUNS off the top rope with a SHOULDERBLOCK, but HORNET falls out of the way, and GUNS misses! SAMMY BENSON: He's a stupid man, he's a stupid little man! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET dives at GUNS, oklahoma roll, ONE...TWO..NO!! With a match like this, with the stakes so high, it's anyway you can get a win... SAMMY BENSON: An oklahoma roll isn't going to get the job done, HORNET should know that.... yet that's why he's out of the CSWA! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET quickly goes through the ropes, he's standing on the outside of the apron! HORNET shoots himself over the ropes and clotheslines GUNS! What a move! SAMMY BENSON: Isn't there some kind of rule against doing that? BILL BUCKLEY: Not that I know of! HORNET hooks the leg of GUNS, has him up BRAINBUSTER!!! GUNS is out! ONE...TWO.... NO!!!! Foot on the bottom rope, I thought we crowned a new champion! SAMMY BENSON: Ah, simmer down, Buckley! You're making me nervous, and when I get nervous, you know I can't hold my beer. BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET raises his hand to the crowd...he's motioning for the backbreaker!! If HORNET could get a submission win over GUNS....it'd bring the stadium down! SAMMY BENSON: Let me guess it'd blow the roof off... BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET has GUNS on his feet...he's got him up, does he.....YES!! HE'S GOT HIM! TORTURE RACK!! GUNS is up in the rack!! And he's got no place to go!! SAMMY BENSON: Say Goodnight Gracie, this one is history! BILL BUCKLEY: This place is going wild!! It looks like GUNS is out....wait a minute, GUNS manages to rakes the eyes, and HORNET drops him like a sack of potatoes! SAMMY BENSON: That may have just saved the UNIFIED title for him, right there! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET gathers himself first....whips GUNS into the corner...here comes the HORNET splash!! HE HIT IT!!! SAMMY BENSON: OH Lord.. BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET climbs to the top rope....but GUNS meets him up there!! SAMMY BENSON: I can't take this, Buckley....oh lord, I feel the beer coming.. BILL BUCKLEY: SAMMY!! GUNS could be going for another Superplex! HORNET...with a right hand..that rocks GUNS. Another right and that sends GUNS flying off the top!!! SAMMY BENSON: I think I'm going to be sick.. BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET off the top rope with a SHOOTING STAR PRESS!! NO!! GUNS slips out of the way!! I don't believe it! HEY!! What's GUNS doing!!?? SAMMY BENSON: Oh relax, Buckley, it's only a roll of quarters!! BILL BUCKLEY: GUNS, just reached in his tights and pulled out a roll of quarters! HORNET turns around, OHNO!! (crowd pops) He just nailed HORNET with those quarters, and they've gone everywhere!!! Worthington is going to count the pin, ONE.....TWO....THREE!!! GUNS WINS! He's on his feet, going wild! HE's just won the UNIFIED WORLD TITLE, wait a sec...Worthington sees the pool of quarters...he's calling for the bell again, this one will restart!! SAMMY BENSON: What is this!?!?? BILL BUCKLEY: Worthington throws GUNS' hand down, the match will restart!! HORNET is perched on the top rope!! GUNS yelling at Worthington!! SAMMY BENSON: He's on the top rope, you fool!! Turn around! BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET FLIES OFF THE TOP ROPE, DROPKICK!!! That sent GUNS headfirst into the turnbuckle...he staggers back, HORNET rolls him up, ONE.......TWO.........THREE!!!! IT'S OVER!!! HORNET HAS DEFEATED GUNS!! SAMMY BENSON: This is disgraceful! Since when in the world do you restart a match due to quarters in the ring!!? BILL BUCKLEY: HORNET has had his hand raised, he gets 20 pts, now stands at 50 and is one match away from the UNIFIED WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE!!
