May 19th, 2006- 8pm start
Dave Prazak: "This is the opening contest of another anticipated
ROH
event."
Jimmy Bower: "It's for the Pure Title. The challenger Alex
Shelley to
face the champion, Bryan Danielson."
Both men are inside of the ring now in each other's corners staring
down as
the referee shows the challenger Alex Shelley and the champion, Bryan
Danielson the title before raising it to the crowd to see as well. The
ref
then puts it in the corner as the match is ready to start.
The bell sounds.
"Teh Next" Alex Shelley and American Dragon Bryan Danielson come to the
middle of the ring to start this match. Both men tie-up until Shelley
puts
on a headlock right away. Danielson whips him up the ropes. He bends
down as
Shelley comes back and leaps over top holding onto his legs pulling him
down
for a sunset flip. The ref counts it.
One
A kickout by the champion who gets right up and is clotheslined down by
Shelley. Shelley then gets back up and punches Danielson on top of the
head.
Shelley then whips him up the ropes as Shelley follows burying a knee
into
the mid section of the champ who falls over his knee and down to the
mat.
Alex quickly goes for a cover.

Another kickout by the champion as Shelley grabs onto Danielson's head
and
goes for a chinlock. Instead though the American Dragon gets right up
and
hit's a back drop upon his opponent. Both men are down on the mat as

hitting a
spinning heel kick. He covers..

Dave Prazak: "Nothing but near falls in this one."
Bryan gets a hold of Shelley and this time applies the chinlock unlike
Shelley. Danielson presses his knee into the American Dragon's back and
pulls on his neck. Danielson has it applied quite tightly until Shelley
reaches over and grabs the ropes as Bryan let's go. The referee tells
Danielson to move back as he does. He comes forward at Shelley who
punches
him in the mid section. Shelley then gets up on his knees and continues
punching him in the same area. He stands and they both exchange right
hand
blows until Shelley knee's the champ in the gut as the fans boo him.
Jimmy Bower: "Great match up so far."
Dave Prazak: "The fans really don't like Alex Shelley that
much."
Alex then body slams his opponent and quickly drops a couple elbows to
his
chest. He goes for a cover but then raises the head of Danielson by his
hair. Shelley then whips him up the ropes and hit's a back body drop.
Shelley then runs and cross body's him. Danielson is down as Shelley is
back
up once again. He goes to the middle rope and comes off looking for a
elbow
drop but misses as the champ moves out of the way. Both men are down as
the
referee begins another count.
1.....2.....3.....4.....5.....6.....7.....both
men begin to move and eventually get up. Shelley takes Danielson to the
corner and lifts him up. He goes for a huge superplex but instead
Danielson
throws him off. He sits on the turnbuckle as Shelley comes over and
goes for
the American Dragon who boots him back. The Dragon comes off for a axe
handle smash but is dropkicked to the gut. He falls, Shelley
covers..
One..
Two..
The current ROH Pure Champion, American Dragon Bryan Danielson just
raises
his right shoulder up before a three count came down. The fans are
pumped
and begin cheering him on as Alex runs up the ropes, comes back and
goes for
a Oklahoma roll. The ref covers..

A kick out as both men are up. Shelley locks in a small package.

No still nothing but a kickout. Alex Shelley then stalks the champ from
behind and waits for him to turn around as he does. Shelley then goes
for a
Slice Bread #2 but instead is pushed off and up the ropes. Shelley
comes
back and is almost superkicked to the face but ducks instead. Shelley
then
goes for a superkick of his own which is ducked by the Dragon.
Danielson
goes behind him. He hooks the arms, and goes for his finisher, the
Dragon
Suplex but no! Trying to flip him over Alex flips over and lands onto
his
feet. Danielson turns around and is side kicked to the face really
hard.
Shelley then takes him and goes for a Slice Bread #2 and hit's it. He
covers..
One...

The American Dragon Bryan Danielson gets his foot on the rope!
Alex cannot believe it as he continues to patronize the referee. Alex
holds
his head and thinks to himself, "What will it take to defeat this
man."
Dave Prazak: "My god how close was that Jimmy!"
Jimmy Bower: "That was huge Dave."
Shelley then picks Bryan up and goes for a body slam but instead Bryan
Danielson rolls him up in a pinning perdicament. The referee gets down
and
counts as Danielson as the leg hooked.
One

Dave Prazak: "Bryan Danielson retains the Pure Title!"
Jimmy Bower: "Out of nowhere with that win."
Dave Prazak: "You know Alex is pissed."
Jimmy Bower: "Either way we have a winner and it's the American
Dragon."
Back to the ring for some action..
Disposable teens hits the speakers as the crowd starts banging on the
guardrails, Christopher Daniels
steps through the curtain to an enormous ovaton with Alision Danger
behind
him in her Angel outfit.
Beanie Siegel then hits the speakers as Julius Smokes steps through the
curtain with his signiture bat in hand, and behind him fellow
Rottweilers Homicide and Low Ki.
The rottweilers walk down to the ring but Christopher Daniels baseball
slides into them as the referee rings the bell and we are underway,
Daniels steps onto the apron with both Rottweilers looking dazed, he
then
leaps up and hits an amazing arabian press to the floor taking out both
Homicide and Ki.
Daniels then grabs Homicide and rolls him into the ring, he throws him
into
the corner and begins to hit open palm strikes to the face of Homicide.
Daniels then grabs the arm of Homicide and irish whips him into the
opposite
turnbuckle,
he taunts to the crowd just before running towards Homicide, but Ki
quickly
moves Homicide out of the way causing Daniels to smack into the
turnbuckle,
Ki then tags himself in and starts laying into Daniels with chops and
kicks
in the corner.
Ki grabs daniels by the head and gives him a quick snapmare, then
applies
the headlock to Daniels, the crowd begins to pound on the ROH signs at
ringside chanting "FALLEN ANGEL" for Daniels to get up, Ki begins to
applie
pressure to the headlock as
Daniels begins to fade.The referee picks up daniels arm......it drops,
he
picks it up again.....it drops again, he tried one more time .......it
doesn't drop as Daniels begins to get up with Ki still holding onto the
headlock he then starts elbowing Ki in the stomach
until Ki loses his grip.With his head free, Daniels runs off the ropes
towards Ki but Ki catches him with a swift kick to the stomach, Daniels
now
on all fours looking at the match Ki lifts up one of his feet ad slams
it
down onto the back of Daniels head. Ki then tags out to Homicide
Cide grabs daniels leg and goes for the STF which he successfully
applies,
with Daniels struggling to get to the ropes he signals something to Ki
who
then begins to climb the turnbuckle and then Low Ki leaps off with an
incredible Ghetto Stomp landing right on the skull of Christopher
Daniels.
Homicide pins Daniels,
1......2.......NO !
Homicide and Ki look at Daniels in disbelief, they both pickup Daniels
and
irishwhip him into a turnbuckle, Homicide then runs at Daniels but
Daniels
runs out of the turnbuckle and hits Cide with a leg lariat, Daniels
gets
back up as Ki runs towards him but gets hit with a blue thunder driver
by
Daniels
Cide begins to get up as Daniels waits for him from behind, as Cide
turns
round Daniels goes for another open palm strike but Cide catches
Daniels arm
and swings him round into an ace crusher, Homicide then tells Ki to go
up to
the turnbuckle as Cide sets Daniels up for the CopKilla but as they set
up
for the CopKilla/Ghetto Stomp combo Daniels rolls backwards, landing on
his feet he then pushes cide right into the turnbuckle which Ki is on
top of
causing Ki to get crotched,
Cide now dazed walks backwards right into Daniels who grabs him and
hits a
big high angle german suplex with a bridge
1......2.........NO!
Daniels starting to really feel the adrenaline walks over to Ki who is
still
crotched on the turnbuckle, he sets up for a hurricanrana but as he
flips Ki
holds onto his legs , so Daniels is now stuck dangling with Ki holding
onto
his legs suddenly out of nowhere Homicide runs with a knee to the face
of
the upside down Chirstopher Daniels.
The crowd cheers Daniels on, and Homicide and Ki tell them to shut the fuck up!
Smokes bangs his bat on the barricade, telling his men to finish that sucka off. They bring
Daniels to his feet and Ki nails him with a few hard kicks to the midsection, with both legs alternating. In the meantime,
Homicide is taking off his right elbow pad, and cranking it up, getting it ready for a viscious lariat! Ki holds Daniels in place, as Homicide winds up,
and runs to the ropes.. but he is tripped up!
What the hell? Who is that? Someone just tripped up Homicide and the crowd is going wild! Whoever it is, he has a hood over his head, so we can't see!
Low Ki is distracted by this, which gives Daniels a chance to recover. He spins Ki around, kicks him in his gut, hooks his arms and hits the Angels Wings! Daniels covers.. 1......2.........3!
"The Winner of the match - The Fallen Angel Christopher Daniels!"
Whoever tripped up Homicide is long gone, as he escaped through the crowd. Who was it?!?
INTERMISSION
The camera opens on Gary Michael Cappetta backstage with Nigel McGuinness.
GMC: Hey everyone, we’re here at intermission and what a great show it’s been so far, some of the most exciting action as you fans have come to expect from Ring of Honor. I’m standing by with a man who believes he should be wearing some ROH gold right now, he is Nigel McGuinness. Now Nigel, at the last show you suffered a loss to Bryan Danielson that allowed him to claim the ROH Pure Wrestling title, a belt you claim to rightfully own.”
Nigel: You’re damn right I rightfully own it. See, that ROH Pure title is given to the best pure wrestler in the world. That’s why it belongs to me. Now I would never take away from Bryan Danielson, he’s one of the best athletes in ROH and like you said, I went up against him and came up short. But Dragon, I hope you’re watching this, because I ain’t playing about any more. Next time I face you, whether that Pure title is on the line or not, I don’t care, cause I’ll be playing for keeps. You run into me again, son, and I’m going to kick your arse all over that arena, simple as that. Because I have a point to prove. That I am nothing more and nothing less than the very best pure wrestler in the world. I’m the best there was, the best there is, and the best there ever will be! And you’re having a tin bath if you think you can beat me twice in a row. I will beat you, Dragon, and I will win that Pure title no matter who I have to beat to get it, because I’m Nigel McGuinness, and I’m in it to win it!
The ROH logo appears on the screen as we go to the next part of the show.
BEST OF 5 SERIES BEGINS IN A SUBMISSION MATCH
Bobby Cruise: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is the first match in the Best of 5 Series, and it is a submissions-only match!
The crowd cheers with anticipation as ‘Parade of the Charioteers’ plays over the speakers, signalling the arrival of Jimmy Rave.
Bobby Cruise: Introducing first, to be accompanied by Prince Nana, representing the Embassy, from Ghana, West Africa by way of Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in at 181 lbs, he is the Crown Jewel, Jimmy Rave!
Rave makes his way to the ring with a smirk on his face, clearly confident heading into this match. Prince Nana follows him into the ring laughing and arguing with fans as Rave awaits his opponent.
Bobby Cruise: And his opponent, from Chicago, Illinois, weighing in at 232 lbs, ‘Scrap Iron’ Adam Pearce!
Pearce makes his way to the ring wearing his elaborate robe, but the look on his face shows that he’s all business.
Jimmy Bower: Look at Adam Pearce’s eyes; you know he’s out for revenge in this one.
Pearce begins the match very aggressively, attacking Rave as soon as the bell rings and raining punches onto the Embassy member. Rave tries to cover up as best as he can, but Pearce is unrelenting as the referee cautions him for using closed fists.
Jimmy Bower: I think Pearce might be letting revenge get to him. He wants to punish Jimmy Rave here.
Dave Prazak: Adam Pearce needs to keep his cool, this is not a good plan in a submission match where it might be more effective to work over an opponent’s body part.
As Pearce argues with Mike Kehner, Rave takes the opportunity to land some punches of his own and gain the upper hand. Rave starts stomping away at Pearce shoulder and elbow, weakening the arm for a single arm DDT that clearly hurts Scrap Daddy. Rave starts to tear off Pearce’s elbow pad before stretching out Pearce’s elbow with an armbar.
Dave Prazak: Sound strategy by the Crown Jewel of the Embassy. Whether you like Jimmy Rave or not, you have to admit that he’s always got a plan and he has the in ring skills to back it up.
Jimmy Bower: No doubt about it. But his attitude hasn’t made him many friends. I don’t think Adam Pearce is the only guy in the locker room who wants a piece of Rave.
Dave Prazak: Well, Pearce has got five matches to do what so many people would like to do to Jimmy Rave.
Rave remains in control, working over the arm with a Kimura lock. Pearce rolls towards the ropes, but Rave stomps down on the arm to soften him up before locking in a Jujigatame. Again, Pearce is forced to scramble for the ropes.
Jimmy Bower: This match is so important for the upcoming shows, both of these men need a win to start some momentum and help them to victory in the Best of 5 Series.
Dave Prazak: Especially since this is a submission match, if someone works over a body part like Rave is doing to Pearce’s arm, you don’t want an obvious weakness heading into those other matches.
Pearce rolls to the outside, taking a time out to rest his arm a little. Ignoring the referee, Rave follows him out and attacks from behind, whipping him shoulder first into the ring post! Pearce goes down, holding his arm in agony.
Dave Prazak: Pearce needs to start fighting back, and fast.
As if on cue, Pearce starts throwing punches with his good arm, trying to regain the advantage. The fight back into the ring, where Pearce executes an impressive looking dropkick. He goes to the knee of Rave, dropping the elbow on it and wrenching it out of its normal position. Rave fights out and ducks a clothesline, catching Pearce’s arm and rolling into the Ghanarea. He quickly follows up with the running knee to the face, knocking the seated Pearce down.
Jimmy Bower: That’s how good Jimmy Rave can be, Dave. He can turn a match around just like that.
Rave goes for the Fujiwara armbar, but sensing the danger, Pearce quickly fights out. He tries to take the Crown Jewel down, but Rave rolls through into another painful armlock as Pearce fights to free himself. Pearce manages to hit a snapmare and delivers a kick to Rave’s face, dazing him. A neckbreaker keeps Rave down long enough for Pearce to go back to work on the knee, hyper-extending it as far as he can.
Jimmy Bower: Adam Pearce has a game plan of his own, maybe looking for that Figure 4 Leglock he’s been known to use.
Pearce suplexes Rave down hard and heads up top, looking for the top rope splash, but Nana yells at Rave to get up, allowing Jimmy to catch Pearce up there. He climbs up too, setting up for a superplex, but Pearce fights back, and they trade punches on the top turnbuckle. Gaining the upper hand, Pearce takes hold of Rave’s leg and jumps to the outside, mangling Rave’s knee over the top rope!
Jimmy Bower: DANGEROOUUUUS!!
Dave Prazak: All of a sudden, Pearce is back in this match!
Pearce pauses to flip off Prince Nana before rolling back in and locking in the Figure 4! Rave screams in pain, looking ready to tap out at any second and Pearce applies as much extra pressure as he can. Rave grabs the referee and holds him out of position, so that he can’t see Nana crawl into the ring and rake Pearce’s eyes, forcing him to break the hold!
Dave Prazak: Once again, the Embassy plays the numbers game allowing Rave to get the advantage!
Jimmy Bower: That wasn’t right, Pearce was just seconds away from victory there.
Rave limps over to Pearce and punches him down in the corner, looking angry at having come so close to losing. Bouncing off the ropes, he hits the headscissors into a crossface that he calls From Dusk till Dawn, but then modifies it into the Fujiwara armbar!
Jimmy Bower: That’s one of Rave’s trademark holds! All the pressure is on Pearce’s injured arm, can he hold on?
Despite the agony on his face, Pearce tries to crawl over to the ropes, but before long the pain becomes too much, and he has to tap out.
Bobby Cruise: Here is your winner, Jimmy Rave!
Dave Prazak: Pearce did the right thing there. It’s tough to have to tap out, but if too much damage was done to that arm, he’d be much easier for Rave to defeat in the other Best of 5 Series matches.
Rave has barely started celebrating when Alex Shelley runs out to put the boots to Pearce! Both Embassy members beat down Scrap Daddy, focusing on the already injured shoulder. Prince Nana is in too, and he starts directing traffic, handing a chair from ringside to Shelley as Rave stretches out Pearce’s arm.
Jimmy Bower: Oh no, they aren’t going to do what I think they’re going to do, are they?
Sure enough, Shelley rams the chair into the exposed arm of Pearce, leaving him writhing in agony on the mat. Rave isn’t done, as he hauls Pearce up into a standing headscissors and underhooks both arms.
Dave Prazak: Looks like he’s setting up for the Greetings From Ghana…
Rave lets go of the arms, apparently thinking better of it – but then lifts Pearce up and drops him with a Jumping Piledriver!
Dave Prazak: Hey, he just used Adam Pearce’s own finishing move on him!
Jimmy Bower: The Embassy is adding insult to injury right there. Jimmy Rave is sending Adam Pearce a message loud and clear, and you better believe Pearce is going to want revenge for this.
The Embassy heads to the back celebrating as officials come to check on Pearce in the ring. He pushes them away, not wanting them to have to check on his condition, and stares up the entrance ramp at Jimmy Rave with a look of seething hatred in his eyes before falling back to the canvas, clutching his injured shoulder.
Cornette: "All right, I'll call you back. COME IN!"
In walks CZW Owner, John Zandig. Cornette quickly stands up and grabs his bat.
Cornette: "What in the hell do you want?"
Says Cornette as he holds the bat ready to swing.
Zandig: "Calm down old man. I'm not here to fight."
Cornette: "Oh that's a bunch of b/s. You and your thugs are always here for a fight."
Zandig: "Not this time. Right now, I want to tell you flat out, that after Sweeney beats whoever you have him facing tonight.."
Cornette: "Its the ROH Champion Colt Cabana, damnit! Don't you disrespect him or Ring of Honor!!"
Zandig: "Damnit, calm down. I knew it was the ROH Champion, who it is, doesn't matter. So be it Cabana, or any other paper champion you have at the time, CZW will always dominate. But I want
to make it known that we will get what we want, and what we want is a ROH Title match on the next CZW show after Sweeney beats your champion 1-2-3."
Cornette: "By God you have got to be kidding me! Why would I make my champion put his title on the line in a trash company like yours? Hell, I'll gladly book a match at your venue just so you guys
can see what real wrestling is about if that's what you want, but a title match ain't happening."
Zandig: "Ah, well, I know you're getting old and all, but I thought the older you got.. the wiser you got. Sorry."
Zandig starts walking out, and Cornette grabs him and stops him.
Cornette: "What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
Zandig: "I'm just saying, you're not seeing the big picture here. My guy beats yours, title shot.. your guy beats mine, hell, why not? I'll give him a shot at the CZW title on the next CZW show. No problem."
Cornette is considering this, and he nods his head.
Cornette: "All right, fine, you got yourself a deal!"
Zandig extends his hand.
Zandig: "Perfect."
Cornette shakes his head.
Cornette: "You are out of your Goddamn mind if you think I'll ever shake your hand. GET OUT!"
Cornette pulls the bat back, and Zandig quickly makes his way from the office. The camera follows Zandig out, and as the door closes, a smile is on his face. He flips his phone out, and makes a call...
...
Zandig: "Hey, tell the rest of the boys that the date is on for next week...... oh definitely, its going to be quite the encounter."
Fade out.
BACKSTAGE
Gary: "Fans I'm here backstage with Roderick Strong, one-third of Generation Next and Roderick I must ask.. where is the rest of Generation Next?"
Strong: "You know Gary, don't worry about where they are. They're taking care of GenNext business, and that's all there is to it."
Gary: "All right, all right. I certainly do not want to anger you anymore than you already seem to be. What's the problem?"
Strong: "The problem? I'll tell you what the problem is..."
Off camera: "I'll tell you what his problem is.."
Just then, up walks a man who we've not seen in ROH before.. Chris Sabin!"
Gary: "Oh my goodness, Chris Sabin!"
Roderick smiles and they shake hands and hug.
Gary: "What's this??"
Sabin: "His problem is he hasn't been able to break anyone's back lately. Right, man?"
Strong: "Exactly. See Gary, he knows me."
Gary: "But I'm confused. Is Chris Sabin in Ring of Honor? Is Chris Sabin in Generation Next?"
Strong: "Yes..
Sabin: "And yes.."
Gary: "Wow, this is big news!"
Sabin: "And its for the better. Chris Sabin is in fact THE FUTURE of wrestling, and Generation Next personify the future of this business. So its no
shocker that I've aligned with them."
Gary: "What are you guys planning on doing as the first order of business with Sabin on board, Roderick?"
Strong: "That's for us to know, only. But I can tell you, that The Embassy better watch their backs. This isn't over."
Fade out.
ROH CHAMPION vs. CZW CHAMPION
Dave Prazak: "Wow, that's great news and big news at that. Sabin has joined ROH, and Generation Next!"
Jimmy Bower: "Very interesting."
Dave Prazak: "Well fans..This is now the main event."
Jimmy Bower: "The ROH World Champ versus the CZW World
Champ."
Dave Prazak: "Colt Cabana versus Larry Sweeney."
Jimmy Bower: "Who will have the advantage?"
Dave Prazak: "Only one way to find out."
Jimmy Bower: "Let's watch for ourselves."
The bell sounds.
Both the ROH World Champ, Colt Cabana and the CZW World Champ, Larry
Sweeney
are standing in their corners as the ring announcer has just finished
announcing them. The fans are going wild with cheers. Some for ROH and
some
for CZW. Both men then come to the middle of the ring and stand face to
face
looking into each others eyes.
Jimmy Bower: "Cabana and Sweeney will meet again on the next CZW show, and based on the outcome of this match, a title will be on the line."
Dave Prazak: "If Cabana loses, he puts the ROH gold on the line. If Sweeney loses, its the CZW Title on the line!"
Jimmy Bower: "I don't like that.. because Cabana is stepping into the ring of CZW. Its not quite a respectful atmosphere there like it is here."
Larry takes the first shot as he slaps Colt in the face. Sweeney then
knee's
Cabana in the gut as he then throws a few hard knive edge chops to his
chest. Cabana is then on the rope as Larry goes to whip him up the
ropes.
Cabana reverses it sending Sweeney into the ropes. Larry comes back as
Colt
ducks down. Sweeney then stops and boots Cabana in the face with his
boot.
Sweeney then runs and clotheslines him down. He goes for a cover.
One
Jimmy Bower: "Kickout by Colt Cabana."
Larry Sweeny then grabs onto Colt Cabana's face and tries putting on a
chinlock submission hold. Right away though Cabana is up who buries a
few
back elbows into Sweeney's mid section. Cabana then runs off and up the
ropes but Sweeney right away buries a quick knee into the gut of Cabana
who
tumbles over the knee and falls to the mat. Sweeney once again goes for
a
cover.
One..
Dave Prazak: "Another one count."
Sweeney is right back to the attack as he gets up and then drops down
an
elbow to the sternum. Larry is back up and hits another one followed by
one
more quick elbow. He then goes for another quick cover to his opponent,
the
ROH World Champion, "Classic" Colt Cabana as the fans boo Sweeney..
One
Two
Larry now is up and picks his opponent, Colt Cabana up with him as
well. He
then snapmare takedowns him and then gives him a really hard swift kick
to
the back. Cabana holds his back as Sweeney runs up the ropes and comes
back
dropping down a huge knee to the top sternum area. Sweeney goes for
another
cover as he hooks the leg this time..
One..
Two..
Jimmy Bower: "He won't stay down, but neither will these
fans."
Dave Prazak: "The fans of ROH of course booing CZW member, Larry
Sweeney."
Back to more of the assault Sweeney drops down a feet stomps to the
ankle
and the gut area of Colt Cabana who then rolls out of the ring. Sweeney
follows however and picks him right up. Sweeney then body slams him
down on
his back. He then gets on top and begins to choke him as the referee
comes
to the outside floor from the inside of the ring trying to break it up.
Sweeney lets go as he then lifts up the ring apron. He goes under and
grabs
a singapore cane.
Jimmy Bower: "What in the world is he doing?"
Dave Prazak: "This isn't CZW, and this isn't anything but a
normal
one on one match."
The referee helps Colt Cabana up to his feet on the outside floor as
Cabana
turns around and Larry Sweeney swings the singapore cane in his hand at
Cabana who ducks. It shatters off of the ring post. Sweeney then
quickly
turns around running at Cabana who drop toeholds him down. Cabana then
picks
him up and bashes his head off of the commentary table outside of the
ring.
Cabana then tosses his opponent back into the ring for a cover..
One..
Two..
Jimmy Bower: "Cabana with his first close fall."
Dave Prazak: "Only a two count though."
Colt Cabana then stands up and waits for Larry to rise. He does and
Cabana
runs up the ropes, comes back and hit's a swinging neckbreaker. He then
picks him back up pushing him into the corner. He then chops him in the
chest a few times as it makes a huge noise in the arena and probably a
mark
on his body too. He continues to do it as the fans cheer. The more they
cheer the harder his chops get. Cabana then stops and whips him sternum
first into the turnbuckle. Sweeney comes backing out of it as Cabana
dropkicks him from behind which sends him to the outside floor.
Jimmy Bower: "Listen to these fans roar for the ROH World
Champion,
Colt Cabana."
Sweeney then helps himself up thanks to the ring apron as Colt Cabana
stands
in front of the ropes and looks at Sweeney as he then launches himself
outside crashing down on Larry with a body press. Both men are down as
Cabana quickly is back up afterwards tossing his opponent back inside
of the
ring. Cabana then gets up onto the apron and goes to the top ropes. He
gets
on the 2nd rope only and comes off hitting a second rope snap legdrop.
He
covers...
One...
Two...
Dave Prazak: "He still has something left."
Colt Cabana then lifts "Sweet & Sour" Larry Sweeney up and boots him to
the
mid-section. He then goes and tries hooking the arms for the double
underhook backbreaker but instead Larry back drops him over top. Both
men
are down on the mat as the referee begins a count.
1...2...3...4...5...6...7... both men begin to move around and
stand
coming face to face again. Sweeney goes to strike Cabana who blocks it.
Cabana quickly gets to the attack instead and in his advantage as he
knocks
off Sweeney with a few right hands of his own. Sweeney however counters
it
with an eye rake and a boot to the mid section. Sweeney then hoists his
head
between his legs, lifts his body straight up and plants him down into
the
mat head first for a piledriver!
Jimmy Bower: "What a piledriver!"
Dave Prazak: "It's gotta be over."
Sweeney slowly crawls over putting his hand on the chesteal area of the
ROH
World Champion, Colt Cabana for a cover..
One...
Two...
Thr...
Jimmy Bower: "No!"
Colt Cabana has just enough strength left as he gets his shoulder up
before
a final 3 count. The fans love it as they jump and down screaming in
joy.
Both men are still down on the mat as they move around once again. They
both
get on their knee's and begin throwing right hands to each other. They
both
stand continuing the beat down to each other until Sweeney knee's Colt
in
the gut. He then goes for another Piledriver but instead Cabana pushes
Sweeney up the ropes. Sweeney comes back and gets booted to the mid
section.
Cabana then hooks the arms and goes to hit his finisher the double
underhook
backbreaker. He does and then goes for a cover right away.
One...
Two...
Three...
Jimmy Bower: "It's over now!"
Dave Prazak: "What a match."
Dave Prazak: "The winner of the bout by pinfall is Colt
Cabana!"
Cabana stands up, arm raised in victory by the referee.
Jimmy Bower: "So Colt Cabana steps into a CZW ring for the first time on their next show, and.. does it mean he gets a CZW title shot now?"
Dave Prazak: "That's exactly what it means.. maaaaan."

OUTSIDE..
Cut-to: Outside the arena. A dark truck pulls up, nice and shiny and brand new. It comes to a stop, and the driver's door opens. Out steps a man with a black hoody on, so his face is shaded. He's a black man,
by the look of his hands and what skin on his face we can see. Who is this? What's he doing here?
