[FADEIN: The ring where Cameron Cruise is stalking about. “Killing In The Name” by Rage Against The Machine playing in the background]

DT: While we were on break, the rest of Anthology was sent to the back, and may have been sent out of here. Cruise hit the mic and told Westscott to get out here and had his music played....

MN: Thank goodness you're here for the recap of what happens on the ad breaks or we'd all just be lost Dave.

DT: I'm doing more then you Neely.

TF: The following contest is the MAIN EVENT of the evening, and it is a HARDCORE match, set for ONE FALL...In the ring currently, Hailing from Jacksonville, North Carolina...weighing 264 pounds...Here is the Intercontinental Champion and representing ANTHOLOGY...CAMERON!!! CRUUUUUUUISE!!!

[Cruise smirks as the crowd boos him, after a few moments his music fades out.]

DT: Cruise signed himself up for a real fight tonight, and now he's about to get one. 

[CUEUP: “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva. The crowd pops LOUD as Marcus Westscott stands at the top of the ramp. He casts a hard glace at Cruise in the ring. He wears black leather pants, and black ring boots. Westscott power walks to the ring looking absolutely ready for a fight. Pat Jones keeps the two men apart.]

TF: And his opponent...He hails from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada...Weighing in at 283 pounds...He is the #1 Contender for the EPW World Heavyweight Championship...MARCUS!!!! WEST!!! SCOOOOOTTTT!!!! [Crowd pops loudly, Westscott keeps his focus on Cruise the whole time. Pat Jones backs the men up a few feet before calling for the bell. Once it rings the two men charge and begin throwing haymakers!]

DT: WE HAVE A FIGHT HERE! Westscott and Cruise just hammering away on each other..Westscott now getting the edge and a series of right hands sends Cruise to the mat! Cruise gets back up and gets KNOCKED RIGHT BACK DOWN...Cruise rolls to the outside to escape, but he'll find no relief as Westscott follows him right out and RAMS Cruise HEAD FIRST into the STEEL ringpost!

MN: This is all not fair! Cruise needed some recovery time after that beating he put on Hart and Jungle Storm, this match should be stopped and a 10 minute break given to Cruise! 

DT: It's not Westscott's fault that Cruise decided to meddle in another match. And he's clearly not going to give Cruise any quarter at all in this match as he just TOSSES Cruise hard into the security wall! Westscott now pulling up the foam padding on the outside of the ring, exposing the concrete floor unde it...Westscott now grabs Cruise and sets him for a PILEDRIVER...NO! CRUISE WITH A BACKDROP! Westscott lands on the CONCRETE hard!

DM: Cruise may have saved himself with that move, I'm pretty sure a pile driver on the cement would have been match ending if not career threatening! 

MN: He always comes up with the big moves when he needs them, you two chuckleheads always dismiss and mock Cruise, but when the chips are down, he finds a way. 

DT: Cruise now throws Westscott back into the ring and now Cruise going under the ring...And he's got a trash can full of weapons! 

DM: It's amazing what you find under the ring in EPW...

DT: Cruise tosses the can and it's weapons into the ring and now gets back in there himself, he grabs a Speed Limit sign out of the can and CRACKS Westscott in the head with it Westscott staggers and takes ANOTHER shot across the back...Westscott in a ton of pain, as Cruise drops the street sign down and now INVERTED DDT ON THE SIGN!!! Westscott took a HARD fall...Cruise with a cover!


ONE!!


TWO!!


NO!!

DT: Westscott kicks out. Cruise puts the boots to him and now goes and gets a metal pipe out of the trash can...He loads up waiting on Westscott...Westscott's up...HOME RUN SWING! Westscott ducks! Westscott with a kick to the gut and now a right hand and another! Cruise is wobbling and Westscott RIPS the pipe away from him and BENDS IT OVER HIS HEAD! Cruise falls like a ton of bricks, he's out! Westscott with a cover!


ONE!!


TWO!!


THR—NO! NO!

DT: CRUISE KICKS OUT! [Crowd groans!] How did he kick out of that, he looked to be dead to the world!

MN: You keep counting this man out, yet he beat Troy Douglas and ran him out of EPW...You and all these moron fans were already to celebrate The First's IC Title win, but Cruise sent him to the back with NOTHING...It's about time you accept that Cruise is ELITE.

DT: While Neely continues his Cruise hero worship, Westscott pulls a cowbell out of the trash can...

DM: Clearly this match needed more cowbell!

DT: I think you only beat Neely to that line cause he's afraid of what's going to happen to Cruise...Cruise gets to his feet...GETS SMASHED BY THE COWBELL! And now Westscott DRIVING the edge of that bell into the skull of Cruise...He's trying to split him open!

MN: And you condone this barbarianism....You're all in favor of this.

DT: Well after all the stunts that Cruise has pulled...Yes! Cruise appears to have a cut in his forehead now from that cowbell...Westscott gives him a shot to the back of the head with the cowbell. Cruise drops to his knees as Westscott now winds up with the cowbell...CRUISE GOES LOW! Westscott crumples to the mat in agony after that VILE low blow by Cruise.

MN: Oh, so using a cowbell and splitting a man open with it is A-OK, but throwing a punch to the groin is unacceptable...You have a screwed up sense of morality Thomas.

DT: Cruise now gets to his feet and grabs the trash can and DRIVES it into the head of Westscott. Now he rests the trash can on Westscott's head...Cruise to the second rope...LEGDROP INTO THE TRASH CAN!!

DM: Westscott trashing on the mat in agony having that can compressed into his face!

DT: Cruise picks up the can and gives Westscott ANOTHER HARD SHOT with and a cover!


ONE!!


TWO!!


NO!!

DT: Westscott won't quit. Cruise picks him up and throws him into a corner...Cruise to the outside...He's got himself a steel chair...He throws that into the ring, and now another one...Cruise up on the apron giving Westscott a couple right hands...And now back in the ring, Cruise unfolds both chairs...He's got them set up in the middle of the ring...He grabs Westscott and hooks him...SUIPLEX INTO THE UNFOLDED CHAIRS!!! [Crowd groans!] 

MN: Now that is how you do it! Cruise is showing the world what a fraud of a #1 contender Westscott is. 

DT: Cruise with the cover!


ONE!!


TWO!!


THR—NO! NO!

DT: WESTSCOTT POWERS OUT AT TWO!! [Crowd pops!] Cruise can't believe it and is letting Pat Jones know he doesn't agree with that count. 

MN: That was a crime of a two count! The anti-Anthology bias in this company is disgusting!

DT: Cruise now grabs one of the chair and rests Westscott's head on it...Cruise grabs the other chair...GOING FOR A CONCHAIRTOE...WESTSCOTT MOVES!! Cruise stalks him...ANOTHER SWING...ANOTHER MISS! WESTSCOTT KICKS CRUISE LOW! [Crowd pops!] Westscott gets to his feet, he looks dazed, he rips the chair away from Cruise's hands...AND SMASHES CRUISE WITH IT! Both men fall to the mat! [“West-SCOTT!” chants!]

DM: Westscott summoned up what energy he had to land that chair shot on Cruise and now both the #1 contender and the Intercontinental Champion find themselves laid out on the mat.

MN: And I don't hear any howls of protest over that low blow Westscott landed...The double standard as always.

DT: Well turnabout is fair play as far as I'm concerned...Both men getting to their feet, both men have chairs...CHAIR FIGHT! The two men swinging away...Blocking each other's chair shots...Cruise swings and misses...WESTSCOTT CONNECTS! ANOTHER ONE ACROSS THE BACK OF CRUISE Westscott now unfolds the chair and punches Cruise a few times, Cruise falls into the chair...Westscott off the ropes...BIG FOOT!! CRUISE DOES A FLIP FLYING OUT OF THAT CHAIR! WESTSCOTT COVERS!!


ONE!!


TWO!!


TH-NO! NO!

MN: Come on Cruise, fight through this! Westscott's not in your class!

DT: Cruise escaping the pin, but Westscott still has control of this match. Westscott now going to the outside...And he's got a table! [Crowd pops!] Westscott slides the table into the ring. Westscott now climbing into the ring...WAIT! CRUISE WITH A LEG DROP TO THE BACK OF WESTSCOTT'S HEAD AS HE WAS GETTING IN THE RING! WESTSCOTT JUST GOT HIS THROAT DRIVEN INTO THE MIDDLE ROPE!

DM: Cruise always has his wits about him, he knows when and how to do the most damage with a move! 

DT: Cruise now grabs one of the chairs and sets it up in between the top and middle ropes...Cruise grabs Westscott and THROWS HIM HEADFIRST INTO THE CHAIR!! Westscott hit the chair head on and his shoulder hit the ringpost! CRUISE WITH A CRADLE...HE'S GOT THE TIGHTS!!


ONE!!

DT: WESTSCOTT WON'T QUIT! These fans are on their feet...Cruise is beside himself and now he pulls Westscott up...REALITY CHECK!!! HE JUST NAILED IT!! CRUISE WITH A COVER!!


ONE!!


TWO!!


THR-NO! NO!!!

DT: WESTSCOTT GETS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES!! Cruise is ENRAGED! His face is twisted in anger. He goes over and unfolds that chair...Now wait a minute, he's going back to the outside...OH LORD HE'S GOT A BAG.

MN: And I'm pretty sure it's not full of post it notes or greeting cards...

DT: Cruise now opens the bag...And spills THUMBTACKS ALL OVER THE TABLE! 

DM: Just when you think this match can't get any more brutal, these two men just outdo themselves with violence!

DT: Cruise now whips Westscott into the ropes...He catches him...SPINEBUSTER INTO THE TABLE...NO! Westscott countered with a LOU THESZ PRESS! They missed the table but Westscott now BASHING CRUISE'S HEAD INTO THE MAT...There's thumbtacks all over the place and I'm sure some of them are currently being driven into the SKULL of the intercontinental champion! 

MN: This isn't right! Really somebody needs to stop this! 

DT: Westscott now up and he's yelling at Cruise to get to his feet...Cruise stumbles up...Westscott kicks him in the gut...POWERBOMB...NO! Cruise up on Westscott's shoulders punching away...Trying to get Westscott off balance...Westscott falls! Cruise saved himself there...And now he grabs a chair...Westscott back up...KNOCKED BACK DOWN BY A CHAIR SHOT TO THE HEAD BY CRUISE!

MN: GRAND SLAM BY CRUISE! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT!! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT!

DT: You are just...I can't even come up with the words...Cruise now waiting on Westscott to get up again...WAIT!! A FAN JUST HOPPED THE SECURITY RAIL!

DM: That's not a fan...That's Shawn Hart!

DT: It's Shawn Hart! He just hopped the railing and now he's on the apron! Cruise charges at him, and Hart jumps to the floor...Cruise yelling at Hart...Who's pointing in the ring...Cruise turns around...GETS KICKED IN THE GUT BY WESTSCOTT...WESTSCOTT HAS HIM UP!!! POWER BOMB THROUGH THE THUMBTACK COVERED TABLE!!! WESTSCOTT FOLDED CRUISE IN HALF AND COVERS HIM!!!

THREE!!!


[Bell rings. CUEUP: “Ladies and Gentlemen” by Saliva.]

TF: Here is your winner...MARCUS!! WESTSCOTT!! [Crowd pops huge!]

DT: What a match, and what a DEVASTATING finish...

MN: What injustice...Hart running out here as a distraction...He's going to pay for that!

DT: Well he just might, as the rest of Anthology are charging out to the ring...Hart fleeing through the crowd with Anthology giving pursuit...

MN: I hope a camera is still on them when they catch him and maim him!

DT: Meanwhile in the ring, Cruise is being pried from the wreckage and helped to the floor...Westscott stands in the ring soaking in the ovation from this crowd. 

[Crowd boos as “Triple X” Sean Stevens, EPW World Title belt over his shoulder and still a little bloodied up from the attack earlier, makes his way to the ring. Stevens is wearing a “Still The King” T-Shirt and custom faded jeans. He enters the ring and gets face to face with Westscott.]

DT: The Champion and the #1 Contender nose to nose here...Are they going to go to blows?! Will we see a preview of Russian Roulette right here?

[Stevens backs off, almost dismissive of Westscott...But then suddenly grabs his belt and goes to smash Westscott with it!]

DT: STEVENS WITH THE BELT! WESTSCOTT DUCKS!! The two men now trading punches! Westscott now winning the exchange! Stevens staggering...Westscott off the ropes...BIG FOOT! Stevens sent flying through the ropes and to the floor! [Crowd pops big! 'West-SCOTT!' chant] 

MN: This is criminal! How dare he attack Stevens!

DT: Stevens took the first swing here Neely...And now look at this...Stevens dropped the belt in the ring and now Westscott picks it up...and holds it over his head for the crowd to see [Crowd pops!]

MN: Ah...I'm gonna be sick! Somebody get that belt away from him!

DT: Stevens screaming at the refs and staff around the ring to get his belt back...Westscott now walks over to the side of the ring and throws the belt at Stevens! [“It's not going to be yours much longer! Enjoy what time you have left with it!” Westscott yells at Stevens, who merely glares at Westscott in a rage]

DT: What a night Russian Roulette is going to be...What's going to happen when these two men get inside a roofed steel cage to decide who will be the EPW World Heavyweight Champion? I can't wait to see it! We'll see you at Russian Roulette!

[The camera cuts back and forth from Westscott to Stevens and back as both men continue to stare each other down as Stevens backs his way up the ramp...Holding the EPW World Title Belt aloft...Westscott smiling big, brimming with confidence as we...FADEOUT]
