GHEORGHE: “I CAN’T BELIEVE IT! JASON PAYNE WITH A HUUUUUUGE BACK BODY DROP AND JOHN DOE GOES FLYING HALFWAY INTO THE CROWD!!!”
JACOBS: “JOHN DOE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
JIVE: “Payne with a quick reaction .. and the fans in the first few rows got a little bit more than they bargained for with their admission here tonight!”
GHEORGHE: “Doe is laid out on the concrete floor in between the second and third row of seats … AND JASON PAYNE DOESN’T EVEN GIVE IT A SECOND THOUGHT! Payne back over to HAL … and HAL with a shot to the gut! HAL throws Payne into the corner and starts kicking at his midsection!”
CROWD: “10! 9!”
JIVE: “The last man is about to come in!”
GHEORGHE: “I’m anxious to see who drew number 20 … as well as knowing that one of the men in that ring is going to get a championship shot at whoever the World Champion is after tonight!”
CROWD: “2! 1!”
(SFX: Buzz!)
JULIUS: “What a way to start your New ERA career!”
GHEORGHE: “STEVEN SHANE DRAWS THE LAST NUMBER!”
JULIUS: “Not only is it his first match here in New ERA … but he draws the best damn number you could. He should reassured that last years winner, MWG, also entered in last … and he won the thing!”
GHEORGHE: “When MWG entered, however, there weren’t nine other guys in there with him!”
JULIUS: “True.”
GHEORGHE: “We have Ulysis Solian .. Mr. Entertainment .. Copycat .. Alister Hayze .. Cameron Cruise .. Daymon .. Jason Payne .. HAL and Steven Shane .. one of these men will be the BattleBRAWL rumble winner!”
JIVE: “My money is still on HAL. I’m sure he’s mapped this victory out with his supercomputer.”
JULIUS: “I’m going to go with Mr. Entertainment. He’s the smartest guy in the ring right now .. and the only one who DESERVES to get that championship shot.”
GHEORGHE: “HAL winds up .. BUT HAS HIS HAND CAUGHT BY DAYMON! DAYMON HOOKS THE WAIST … BELLY TO BACK SUPLEX! Jason Payne steps out … BUT CAMERON CRUISE CLOBBERS HIM FROM BEHIND WITH A CLOTHESLINE!”
JULIUS: “As we’ve already said a few times tonight … these two were eliminated by MWG last year together which gave him the victory … There’s still some unresolved feelings you can see.”
GHEORGHE: “Cruise bends down to pick Payne back to his feet … BUT STEVEN SHANE STEPS IN! Shane drops to his knees… CLOSED FIST TO THE JAW! Shane back to his feet .. hooks the head … AND PILEDRIVES CRUISE INTO THE MAT!”
JULIUS: “Alister Hayze flies into the fray and connects with a forearm to the face of Daymon … and now Hayze trying to dump Daymon over the top rope! Daymon is holding on..”
GHEORGHE: “Daymon fighting off Alister Hayze … AND A SHOT TO THE FACE SENDS HAYZE TO THE MAT.”
JIVE: “Steven Shane has Cameron Cruise by the hair .. and he tosses him over the top rope!!”
GHEORGHE: “NO! Cruise somehow manages to not go over the top .. BUT HE IS STRADDLING THE TOP ROPE! Steven Shane steps up… AND HE STARTS SHAKING THE TOP ROPE UP AND DOWN!”
JULIUS: “That does wonders for one’s nuts.”
GHEORGHE: “Cameron Cruise trying to hold on … and he falls back inside the ring!”
JIVE: “Unfortunately for him, his testicles have been eliminated.”
GHEORGHE: “Alister Hayze is back on his feet … but Daymon doesn’t let up … Daymon has Hayze in the corner … AND WALLOPS HIM IN THE HEAD WITH AN ELBOW!”
JULIUS: “HAL is behind Daymon though …. AND HAL WITH A LOW BLOW FROM BEHIND! Daymon goes to his knees ……. AND HAL WITH A CLOTHESLINE SENDS ALISTER HAYZE OVER THE TURNBUCKLE PADS AND TO THE ARENA FLOOR!”
JACOBS: “ALISTER HAYZE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
GHEORGHE: “Hayze’s return to New ERA has been foiled by the computer genius HAL …. HAL turns around …. AND DAYMON RETURNS THE FAVOR WITH A LOW BLOW! HAL doubles over … AND DAYMON GRABS HIM BY THE HEAD AND SENDS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE ARENA FLOOR!”
JACOBS: “HAL HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
JIVE: “And just like that we’re down to eight men.”
GHEORGHE: “On the other side of the ring Ulysis Solian and Mr. Entertainment are double teaming Copycat .. Solian holding Copycat as Entertainment gets in some vicious body blows … but here comes Jason Payne! Payne grabs Mr. Entertainment and spins him around …. AND A HUGE BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! The Dog of War back to his feet … AND DROPS THE ELBOW ON THE TELEVISION CHAMPION!”
JIVE: “Shawn Hart, who is STILL in the rumble, grabs Steven Shane … AND HE TOSSES HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE!”
JULIUS: “BUT SHANE STAYS ON THE APRON! Steven Shane reaches over …. AND GRABS SHAWN HART! STEVEN SHANE PULLS HART OVER THE TOP ROPE….”
GHEORGHE: “AND NOW BOTH MEN ARE ON THE APRON ON THE OUTSIDE!”
JULIUS: “One of these men is going to go home if they don’t get back in the ring!”
GHEORGHE: “Hart quick to his feet and he hooks his arm … and now they’re trading blows! HART IS WAVERING! Shane has the upperhand …. AND STEVEN SHANE KNOCKS HART TO THE APRON AGAIN! Shane trying to kick Hart off the apron ….. BUT DAYMON IS OVER THERE NOW!! DAYMON GRABS THE HEAD OF SHANE …. AND DROPS HIS NECK ON THE TOP ROPE…”
JIVE: “And there goes Steven Shane!”
JACOBS: “STEVEN SHANE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
JULIUS: “They’re dropping like flies in there!”
GHEORGHE: “Steven Shane’s elimination allowed Hart to roll underneath the bottom rope … and he’s lived to die another day!”
JULIUS: “What are we in a James Bond movie or something? Are you going to say next that Hart’s had A View … A View To A Kill?”
GHEORGHE: “Copycat and Ulysis Solian, who have fought tooth and nail throughout this rumble, are finally working together as they take turns sucker punching Jason Payne … Copycat tells Solian to hold the Dog of War in place ….. Copycat takes a few steps back …. KIT KAT KICK TO PAYNE!”
JIVE: “PAYNE GETS FREE … AND COPYCAT NAILS SOLIAN!”
JULIUS: “And Solian goes down like a sack of potatoes!”
GHEORGHE: “Copycat doesn’t seem to care either way! Copycat just shrugs his shoulders …. AND PAYNE WITH A TACKLE TAKES COPYCAT TO THE MAT! Both men are on the mat fighting for control!”
JULIUS: “Cameron Cruise seems to be back in action finally ..”
GHEORGHE: “Cruise from behind of Shawn Hart … AND HE LOCKS ON A SLEEPERHOLD!”
JIVE: “The dreaded Sleeperhold of Death.”
GHEORGHE: “Hart has been in this thing for almost 50 minutes now … this could spell the end for his hopes of lasting through the entire thing.”
JULIUS: “Cruise just has to hope that no one will interrupt it .. if he can put Hart to sleep then it’ll be easy pickings!”
GHEORGHE: “Cruise applying pressure … and Hart is slowly sinking into unconsciousness … Meanwhile Jason Payne has control of Copycat and is on top of him on the mat laying those right fists into the head of the former WFW Heavyweight Champion!”
JULIUS: “Copycat .. Mr. Entertainment .. Solian .. they all entered the rumble as part of the first seven … and they’re still here. Jason Payne is the freshest man in the ring … and he entered almost 20 minutes ago!”
GHEORGHE: “Payne gets off Copycat … and gives him a kick in the side for good measure … and now he’s surveying the landscape.. He sees Mr. Entertainment resting in the corner on the mat … and he sees Cruise on the back of Shawn Hart with the sleeperhold … AND PAYNE’s EYES JUST LIT UP!”
JIVE: “He’s heading towards Hart and Cruise!”
JULIUS: “Payne’s going to dump them both .. and they have no clue what’s coming!”
GHEORGHE: “Payne gets a full head of steam as he charges towards the pair ……. AND HE RUNS RIGHT INTO THEM ….. PAYNE WITH A FISTFULL OF CRUISE’s TIGHTS ……. AND HE DUMPS THEM OVER THE TOP ROPE!!!”
JIVE: “HOW DOES SHAWN HART DO IT?!”
GHEORGHE: “SHAWN HART LANDS ON THE RING APRON AND ROLLS BACK IN … AS CAMERON CRUISE FLOPS TO THE ARENA FLOOR!”
JACOBS: “CAMERON CRUISE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
JULIUS: “Hart has balls … I don’t think I’ve seen anyone survive elimination and still come back for more punishment as he has tonight!”
GHEORGHE: “Payne looks down at Hart …. And he kicks him in the gut!”
JIVE: “Payne likes kicking guys when they’re down.”
GHEORGHE: “Payne turns …. AND HE CHARGES INTO THE CORNER …….. AND SMASHES THE KNEE RIGHT INTO THE FACE OF MR. ENTERTAINMENT!”
JULIUS: “We are down to six men .. and ANY of them could be a real threat to the World championship.”
JIVE: “What would happen if Mr. Entertainment won the championship shot … AND the championship … not only would he be the Television Champion … but he’d also be the World Champion!”
GHEORGHE: “What about if Copycat wins? Then we’ll have a non-New ERA superstar leading the promotion!”
JULIUS: “The action seems to have died down a little bit as each competitor realizes just how close they are to winning this thing.”
GHEORGHE: “Listen to the fans! They are giving each of these men a hand for their efforts tonight.”
JIVE: “Shawn Hart is sitting in between the corners where Solian and Copycat stand … and across from him is Mr. Entertainment in between Jason Payne and Daymon … all six men are looking around at each other .. and I think they’re each waiting for someone else to make the first move.”
JULIUS: “Shawn Hart’s been in there the longest .. and the sharks can smell the blood.”
GHEORGHE: “Hart slow to get to his feet as he uses the ropes to aid him … AND MR. ENTERTAINMENT MAKES THE FIRST MOVE! MR. ENTERTAINMENT CHARGING STRAIGHT FOR SHAWN HART…………”
JIVE: “I can’t watch!”
GHEORGHE: “ENTERTAINMENT WITH A CLOTH… NO! HART PULLS DOWN THE TOP ROPE ……. AND MR. ENTERTAINMENT GOES FLYING OVER IT!!!! THE TELEVISION CHAMPION IS GONE!”
JACOBS: “Mr. ENTERTAINMENT HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
JULIUS: “Shawn Hart is a maniac! He enters number one .. and here we are .. almost an hour later … and he is STILL eliminating people!”
GHEORGHE: “That is elimination number four for Shawn Hart .. leading the pack tonight. And Mr. Entertainment is NOT happy.”
JIVE: “Neither are the fans!”
GHEORGHE: “They seems pretty happy, actually.”
JIVE: “Well…. They SHOULDN’T BE! He was the only one worth watching!”
GHEORGHE: “Shawn Hart back on his feet … AND HERE COMES COPYCAT! Copycat reaches for Hart … BUT HART SLIDES THROUGH HIS LEGS!”
JULIUS: “What a slick one he is.”
GHEORGHE: “Hart on his feet … BUT HE CAN’T AVOID JASON PAYNE’s BOOT! He could have knocked some of Hart’s teeth out with that shot!”
JIVE: “Copycat turns … AND JASON PAYNE CONNECTS WITH HIS BIG BOOT ON COPYCAT TOO!”
JULIUS: “But Copycat doesn’t go down!”
GHEORGHE: “Copycat goes back into the ropes … and he better shake off those cobwebs … AND FAST … JASON PAYNE CHARGES IN … AND COPYCAT DUCKS UNDERNEATH THE CLOTHESLINE ATTEMPT! Payne turns … COPYCAT WITH THE…. NO!”
JULIUS: “Copycat with a clothesline attempt of his own … but Payne blocked it!”
GHEORGHE: “PAYNE GRABS THE NECK OF COPYCAT ………. CHOKESLAM!”
JIVE: “It could have been worse … he could have chokeslammed him to the arena floor!”
GHEORGHE: “Ulysis Solian over to Shawn Hart … AND SOLIAN GRABS HART AND TRIES TO DUMP HIM! Hart is holding onto the top rope .. AND HE IS STILL FIGHTING!”
JULIUS: “Hart is a beast!”
GHEORGHE: “Solian pushing down on the head of Shawn Hart … but Hart will not budge! Jason Payne gets to his feet … AND IS GREETED WITH A BEARHUG BY DAYMON … Daymon with the over the head belly to belly … BUT PAYNE BLOCKS IT! Jason Payne with a headbutt … .AND PAYNE GRABS DAYMON! JASON PAYNE WITH A DDT PLANTS DAYMON INTO THE MAT!”
JIVE: “Solian desperately trying to get Hart over the top .. and it looks like he’s starting to gain some traction! But Copycat is back up! Copycat is groggy … but he sees Solian with his back to him!”
GHEORGHE: “If there’s one thing that you never want to do in a rumble, its have your back to your opponents for an extended period of time.”
JULIUS: “Solian’s going to get a little surprise.. instead of eliminating Hart, he’s going to have to deal with Copycat…. Hell, maybe he’ll eliminate Hart AND deal with Copycat, too.”
GHEORGHE: “Copycat raises his arms in anticipation …… BUT HE IS BLINDSIDED BY JASON PAYNE! JASON PAYNE GRABS THE BODY OF COPYCAT ……… HE HOOKS THE HANDS BEHIND THE HEAD ……… PAYNE KILLER!”
JIVE: “Copycat is OUT COLD.”
GHEORGHE: “Payne hit the Payne Killer …. And now he’s dragging Copycat’s body to the ropes ……….. AND JASON PAYNE LIFTS COPYCAT UP AND OVER!!!”
JACOBS: “COPYCAT HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
GHEORGHE: “After all that time … entering at number seven .. the former WFW Heavyweight Champion is FINALLY eliminated! What a showing by Copycat tonight!”
JIVE: “Goes to show you that your entire plan can go to hell in a matter of 10 seconds!”
GHEORGHE: “That means we are down to FOUR! Shawn Hart and Ulysis Solian .. who entered merely 2 minutes apart from one another in the beginning of this match …. Daymon … and Jason Payne …. Shawn Hart has been in this match for OVER AN HOUR now as has Ulysis Solian!”
JIVE: “Shawn Hart looks like he’s been through hell and back. Solian has been in there just a mere two minutes less … but he looks to be in far better condition to make it to the end.”
GHEORGHE: “Daymon and Jason Payne are the freshest men in the ring .. and they immediately go after Solian!”
JULIUS: “As you said yourself, Solian is in a better position than Hart right now. If they get rid of Solian … then eliminating Hart, although its been difficult as we’ve seen so far, will be much easier.”
GHEORGHE: “Solian still trying to get Hart over the top rope … but Daymon pulls him off! Daymon grabs the arms of Solian … AND HEADBUTTS HIM! DOUBLE UNDERHOOK POWERBOMB BY DAYMON! Jason Payne sizes him up … AND DROPS THE KNEE ON SOLIAN’s FACE!”
JIVE: “AND NOW PAYNE GOES AFTER DAYMON!”
GHEORGHE: “Jason Payne viciously attacking Daymon with closed fists as he’s on the mat … and Daymon trying to cover himself …”
JULIUS: “Payne’s getting in some good shots … and Daymon is busted open!”
GHEORGHE: “Shawn Hart crawls into a corner and he rests himself on the bottom ropes. Jason Payne rips Daymon to his feet … SIDEWALK SLAM!”
JIVE: “Jason Payne is taking control of this match .. he wants to win this rumble to make up for his elimination last year in the final moments of the match.”
GHEORGHE: “Payne over to Ulysis Solian … Solian trying to get to his feet but Payne with a kick to the gut. Jason Payne grabs Solian and sends him into the ropes with an irish whip. Payne ducks his head …. AND SOLIAN IN A DESPERATION MOVE HITS A SWINGING NECKBREAKER!”
JULIUS: “Payne made the mistake of dropping his head.”
GHEORGHE: “ALL FOUR MEN ARE ON THE MAT …. and it doesn’t look like anyone’s getting up.”
JIVE: “Rumbles are a draining match. Payne might be the freshest man in the ring … but he’s been in there for almost 40 minutes now himself.”
GHEORGHE: “It looks like Ulysis Solian is starting to stir … and now Daymon sits up, too. It’s a race to see who can get to their feet first … and SOLIAN IS UP! Daymon on his knees as Solian comes in with the axe handle … but Daymon throws his shoulder into Solian’s midsection! Solian is doubled over … and DAYMON IS UP!”
JULIUS: “PAYNE IS GETTING UP NOW!”
GHEORGHE: “Payne behind both Solian and Daymon ….. Payne starts towards them.. AND OUT OF NOWHERE SHAWN HART FLIES INTO THE PICTURE!”
JIVE: “BUT PAYNE AND SOLIAN HIT THE MAT! HART NAILS PAYNE WITH A FLYING FOREARM!”
GHEORGHE: “Shawn Hart flung himself out of the corner and looked to be gunning for Ulysis Solian and Daymon … but ended up taking out the Dog of War instead!”
JULIUS: “These guys are running on instinct now. Solian and Daymon went with their gut feelings and it paid off.”
GHEORGHE: “Solian looking over at Hart and Payne on the mat .. BUT HE DOESN’T SEE DAYMON! DAYMON GRABS SOLIAN FROM BEHIND … REVERSE DDT!”
JIVE: “The fans are on their feet …. They’re loving every minute of this!”
GHEORGHE: “Daymon … DAYMON IS POINTING TOWARDS THE ROPES! DAYMON PICKS UP ULYSIS SOLIAN …. AND HE SENDS HIM FLYING OVER THE TOP ROPE!”
JIVE: “SOLIAN IS OUT! HE IS OUT!”
JACOBS: “ULYSIS SOLIAN HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!”
GHEORGHE: “The fans giving Solian a HUGE round of applause … he was in this match for an hour and 16 minutes… and by God he almost pulled it off!”
JULIUS: “Officials come down to the ring to help Solian to the back … but he’s waiving them off.. Solian is on his feet and he is slowly walking to the back….”
GHEORGHE: “We are down to THREE. And wouldn’t you know it .. Jason Payne is in the final three for the second BattleBRAWL rumble in a row.”
JULIUS: “The guy has talent. He might have scared me for a little while .. but there’s no denying that he’s World championship material.”
JIVE: “Solian was in there for an hour and 16 minutes .. which means Hart’s been in there for an hour and 18 minutes … and he’s still going!”
GHEORGHE: “Hart is on the mat … Payne is on the mat … Daymon is the only person on his feet right now. Daymon grabs Shawn Hart … AND WHIPS HIM BACK FIRST INTO THE CORNER! DAYMON WITH A FULL HEAD OF SPEED ……………. PHANTOM TRAIN!”
JULIUS: “Shawn Hart looks like he’s been run over by a mack truck! He just took a few steps out of the corner and flopped to the mat.”
GHEORGHE: “Jason Payne on his feet now … and DAYMON GRABS HIM … DAYMON WHIPS PAYNE INTO THE CORNER ……. PHANTOM TRAIN NUMBER TWO!”
JIVE: “NO! PAYNE MOVED!”
GHEORGHE: “Jason Payne pulled himself out of the corner at the last minute … and Daymon just knocked the wind out of himself!”
JULIUS: “Jason Payne not wasting any time, either.”
GHEORGHE: “Payne in the corner with Daymon .. and he’s driving those knees into the midsection… Payne grabs Daymon … AND HE IS TRYING TO TOSS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE!”
