MATCH 9: 3-ON-2 HANDICAPPED
MATCH: INFERNUS, TONY ANNETTA &
WALTER GINDIN VS. SPEED DEMON & JUSTICE:
Referee: Billy Vargas
For all
the passion of the PWA fans worldwide, the relationship between Walter Gindin
and the spectating public is probably on average one of the less ambiguous
ones. This is clearer than ever as "The Mirror" by Dream
Theater hits, signaling the arrival of agent Gindin's esteemed clients
Infernus, and Tony Annetta. Of course, Gindin is as usual in their
company as they make their way to the ring. However, not so usual is the
fact that tonight Gindin himself makes a rare competitive appearance in the
ring. Gindin's demeanor about this is, well, ambiguous.
Infernus and Annetta, for a change, appear to be giving Gindin some kind of
instructions, as "Want" by the Cure explodes over the speakers,
commencing the entrance of the team of Speed Demon and Justice. Demon
seems anxious to get to the ring, as Justice lumbers forth behind him.
Infernus and Gindin both exit the ring, uncharacteristically calling for an
orderly, fair beginning to the match, in an obvious attempt to slow down the
oncoming ferocity of their opponent's momentum. Justice and Demon decide
to see how they like Justice starting it off.
The bell rings, and Annetta and Justice proceed to circle about, which quickly
turns into Justice walking Annetta backwards towards the corner. Annetta
suddenly rushes Justice, attempting to catch him off guard in a grapple
situation. Justice falls for this, but responds by simply thrusting
Annetta back into the turnbuckles so hard that he bounces right back onto his
face. Justice approaches, but Annetta then latches onto Justice's ankle,
spins through his legs, and then takes him down hard. The crowd is
surprised at Annetta's clean advantage.
Troy: I wouldn't count those chickens before they hatch, Paul.
Annetta then
scissors his legs around Justice's waist, and turns him over onto his
back. The referee counts one, barely a two and Justice rolls his shoulder
away from the mat. Annetta then tightens his grip, and bars Justice's
arm, turning it into a submission predicament for Justice. The fans seem
downright confused by Annetta's display of courage and skill here, although the
result still does not please them in the least. In fact, a Justice chant
breaks out, and Justice proceeds to power out of it. Justice escapes with
a roar, and Annetta then flees.
Justice chases Annetta around the side of the ring. Annetta blows past his
corner, but as Justice follows suit, Infernus stops him cold in his tracks by
leaping off the apron and surprising him with a missile dropkick to the
face. Justice is leveled, and Annetta then tosses him into the
ring. Annetta climbs into the ring, and whips Justice towards the ropes,
who backfires with a devastating clothesline that takes Annetta clean off of
his feet. Annetta dizzily stumbles to his feet, and then toward Justice,
who catches him with a devastating powerslam!
Justice covers and
the referee counts one, two, and Annetta kicks out. Justice then locks in
a hammerlock and tags in Demon. Demon comes in on fire with a kick to the
gut, and then further tightens the hammerlock. However, Annetta is at the
top of his game tonight, and he quickly flips away from the pressure, and then
tosses Demon shoulder first into the ring post! Demon staggers back from
the impact, and Annetta capitalizes with a huge back suplex. Demon looks
absolutely rattled on the mat, and now of course Gindin demands to be tagged.
Annetta grins and tags Gindin in, and the deafening boos ensue as Gindin stomps
away at the fallen Demon. Gindin gloats to the crowd, and then commences
with an additional series of stomps. Gindin then awkwardly drags Demon to
his feet by his hair, and shoves him towards the ropes. Gindin looks
poised to perform a clothesline of some sort, but Demon comes back with a
spinning heel kick! The crowd roars as Demon then blasts Gindin with the
Bloodbath DDT and covers! The referee counts one, two, but then Infernus
quickly breaks the count!
Infernus then drags
Gindin towards the corner, steps out of the ring, and tags the hand of his
limp, oblivious body. The fans boo louder than ever as Infernus comes in,
and finds himself in the middle of a bitter slugfest with Demon, square in the
center of the ring! Demon quickly takes the advantage, pummeling Infernus
towards the ropes! Demon whips Infernus toward the opposing ropes, and
schools him with the best hurricanrana you'll probably see anywhere, into a
pinning combination for the one, two, thr--Infernus launches Demon off of him,
hard!
Demon's throat catches the middle the rope, and Infernus attempts to leap on
his back from behind, but Demon moves out of the way and Infernus crotches
himself on the middle rope, before tumbling off! Demon then leaps up to
the top rope for the Shadow of the Nite! In a panic, Gindin climbs into
the ring, distracting the referee! Annetta enters the ring as well!
Demon takes to the air with the move, but Infernus dodges it anyway!
However, Demon scouts it and lands on his feet, only to be met with an Annetta spinebuster!
But then Justice enters!
Ferrara: Oh man, I don't know if it's the kind I want to see
though! Here comes Justice!
Justice floors
Annetta with a big boot, and then elevates Infernus for the Blind Justice power
bomb! Gindin attempts to alert the referee of Justice's interference, but
the referee is too preoccupied with first ridding the ring of Gindin!
However, Infernus reverses the move into a tornado DDT! Annetta and Demon
then both stumble to their feet, and out of nowhere Annetta blasts Demon with a
pair of brass knuckles from his tights! The excitement of the crowd sinks
to a horrified gasp as Demon spins towards the open arms of Infernus, who
smells victory!
Infernus kicks Demon in the gut, and blasts him with a fisherman's suplex,
which he bridges into a pinning combination. Gindin quickly exits onto
the apron, as Annetta drags Justice out of the ring. The referee turns
around, and the crowd prays that the extra couple of seconds of distraction was
enough to backfire on Gindin's trio and buy Demon some time. The referee
counts one...two...but yes, three! The spirit of the crowd bursts into
disappointment like a balloon, as "Smash Sumthin'" soundtracks the
retreat of a victorious Infernus, Annetta, and Gindin.

SEGMENT 16:
MATCH 10: ROMEO VS. THE MIRACLE
MIKE TROHA:
Referee: Jason Church
It is a
fair assumption to say that Romeo is an intense man, and so when he emerges
from behind the curtain to the sound of "The Hottest of the Hot" by
B.G. with an ear to ear grin on his face, the crowd's initial cheers become
confused. Romeo stalks down the ramp, pounding his fist in his hand, and
he's never looked so happy about the opportunity to do damage as he does
tonight. Romeo climbs into the ring, and instead of the usual brooding
anticipation, he storms around the mat, demanding the immediate presence of who
he plans to make victim.
"The Miracle" Mike Troha, however, probably has other plans.
"Arcarsenal" by At-the-Drive-In blasts throughout the arena, and
Troha, who is almost never without a grin on his face, storms through the
curtain and down the ramp, shaking his head and blathering obscenities that one
would rather expect to here from the mouth of Romeo. The fans shower
Troha with the usual reaction worthy of one of the most hated men in the
history of the sport, but the jeers dissipate into anxious clamors of
excitement as Troha gets closer and closer to Romeo's clutches.
The bell rings and
Romeo and Troha both literally lunge for each other's throats in a highly
unorthodox (not to mention illegal) opening chokehold grapple. Romeo
immediately powers Troha toward the corner, but at the last moment, Troha ducks
under his arm and shoves him face first into the turnbuckle. Romeo simply
turns around and roars in Troha's face, unphased, which elicits a colossal
pop. Troha, instead of retreating in a nervous panic,
uncharacteristically responds by blasting Romeo in the gut with a series of
harsh sidekicks.
Romeo clearly did not expect this at all, and he's totally taken off guard by
Troha's courage and fury. Troha then whips Romeo hard toward the opposing
corner, and Romeo is still too confused to reverse it. Romeo hits the
corner hard, and Troha approaches with a full head of steam. Romeo
finally regains composure and explodes out of the corner with a huge big boot,
but Troha baseball slides under it, and out of the ring, where he trips up
Romeo, and drags his legs out so that they straddle the post. He then
smashes Romeo's right leg into the steel!
Troha then walks up the steel steps, turns his back on Romeo, grabs hold of
both his legs, and drags them upward into a Blind Faith that braces Romeo's
crotch against the ring post! The crowd boos feverishly, unable to
comprehend what they're seeing, as the referee demands that Troha return to the
ring. However, Romeo then lunges forward so hard, that Troha is violently
snapped back first into the post, with impact so sudden that his head smashes
against it as well! Troha simply collapses to the outside, and the
referee begins a count!
The referee barely makes it to a three count, and Romeo will have none of this,
as he climbs out of the ring, and lifts Troha off the arena floor, into
position for the Reverse Death Valley Driver! Romeo turns around, and
blasts Troha with the maneuver, landing him cleanly across the barricade!
Romeo backs up and takes a deep breath, overwhelmed by what he has just
done. The crowd chants "holy shit," and Romeo simply shakes his
head at them, as if to say that they ain't seen nothing yet. He tosses
Troha's limp carcass head first into the ring.
Romeo drops a crushing leg drop across Troha's throat, and simply sits there as
the referee counts one, two, nearly a three and Troha manages to get a shoulder
up. The fans then come to their feet as Romeo stands up, and runs this
thumb along his throat, signaling for Dre Day! Troha dizzily stumbles to
his feet, and then staggers toward Romeo, who catches him position for the move!
However, Troha slips out of it, and in one fluid motion he elevates Romeo into
position for Divine Intervention and then demolishes him with it in the middle
of the ring!
Troy: This could've gone either way, Paul!
Troha, instead of
covering however, simply doubles over in hysterical laughter of triumph.
The fans boo raucously, and a soda sails toward the ring, as Troha beckons to
Romeo, signifying that he intends to deal as much punishment as possible before
ending it. Romeo, at great length, can still barely stand, as he grabs
the ropes for support on his way back toward a vertical base. He spins
around toward Troha, who once again catches him in position for the Divine Intervention.
Troha pauses for a second, and trash talks Romeo, who's still dizzy.
Troha then plants his foot on the mat to elevate Romeo for the move, but
suddenly, his knee buckles hard and he goes down to the mat screaming,
clutching his leg in pain! The fans look confused, and suddenly Romeo
snaps back to life, looking confused as well, and in what appears to be a bit
of a panic, he simply scoops Troha off the mat, into position for Dre Day, and
blasts him with it, square in the middle of the ring! Romeo then covers
for the one, two, yes three! A deafening ovation erupts as Romeo begins
to enjoy what is definitely one of the sweeter victories of his career.

CHAMPIONSHIP: THE NATURALS © VS. PAUL DAWKINS
& JACKIE BACCARO:
Referee: Dan Martin
The crowd
is buzzing with anticipation and riles up as Sevendust's "Black"
begins. Jackie Baccaro comes out to a nice pop, but easily the largest ovation
thus far comes for his partner,
The
former champions climb into the ring and Dawkins lays the flag at ringside
before taking off the jersey and tossing it into the throng of people. Tom
Petty's "All Or Nothing" hits next and 70,000 cheers turn to jeers as
The Naturals step out onto the stage. The tag team champions look more cocky
than ever and look to back it up as they pulls their belts from their waists
and slide into the ring.
Dan
Martin calls for the bell as Kris Anthony starts against Paul Dawkins. They lock
up and Dawkins easily shoves him down hard to the canvas. Embarrassed and
angry, Anthony gets up and charges, but Dawkins is waiting for him with a
clothesline. He follows up with another, and once Anthony reels into the ropes,
he sends him over the top rope and to the floor with a third clothesline!
Dawkins
tags to Baccaro, who drops to the arena floor to go after Anthony, but he's
blindsided as Greg Price runs behind him and bangs his head right into the iron
ringpost! Baccaro drops to the arena floor in a heap as Anthony gets up to roll
him back into the ring. He tags Price in, and the champion goes on a now legal
assault, blasting Baccaro in the head with hard left hands that eventually bust
him open. Baccaro falls face down on the canvas and Price turns him over to
cover him for one...two...and Baccaro kicks out.
Price
picks his longtime rival up and slings him into a corner before pointing at
Dawkins and delivering the Stinger Splash he loves to use.Baccaro wobbles out
of the corner and Price hits the ropes before driving his head down with a
bulldog! He covers again for another long two count and tags Anthony back in.
Anthony
scoops Baccaro up and slams him to the mat before going to the top rope.
Baccaro is slow in getting up and doesn't do it in enough time as Anthony takes
to the air and scores with a tremendous elbow drop to the chest! He covers for
one....two....and Dawkins stomps him to break up Dan Martin's count.
Anthony
plants a knee in Baccaro's back and wrenches back on his chin in a rear
chinlock. Martin asks if Baccaro wants to quit, but Dawkins gets the crowd
behind is partner and Baccaro soon gets to his feet. He breaks the hold with
two elbows to the midsection and shoots Anthony to the ropes. He grabs him on
his return for a belly-to-belly suplex, but Price distracts the ref as Anthony
knees Baccaro in the groin and plants him with his patented Flatliner!
Anthony
makes a cover and Martin gets back into position to count one....two....and
Dawkins pulls him off! The Naturals are irate as Price demands another tag.
After spewing some words at Dawkins, Price takes advantage of the prone Baccaro
by turning him over into his Boston Crab finisher.
Ferrara: I don't think he can, he's
fading fast!
The
rookie of the year digs deep and nears his corner, but Anthony barges in,
blocking Martin from seeing Dawkins make the tag! Dawkins enters the ring, but
is quickly shooed out as Martin returns. After a quick beatdown from the
champions, Price attempts another cover for one.....two.....and Baccaro kicks
out again!
Price
locks in a sleeperhold and Baccaro fights his way to his feet, eventually
taking him down with a back suplex! Both men are down and Baccaro desperately
needs a tag. Dawkins is losing his mind on the ring apron as he motions for his
partner to come across, but Price grabs his leg. He tries to pull him bacl, but
Baccaro kicks him away and makes the tag!
Dawkins comes
in a house of fire, taking down both Natruals with right hands. He whips Price
into a corner and then slings Anthony into his partner. Dawkins runs forth and
slams both Naturals with a Stinger Splash and Anthony stumbles out of the
corner, right into a Baccaro running forearm that knocks him out of the ring to
the arena floor!
Baccaro
follows Anthony to the outside, leaving Dawkins alone with Anthony in the ring.
Dawkins follows up with another Stinger Splash and Price staggers into a boot
to his midsection before Dawkins lifts him up and spikes him with the M.O.A.B.!
Dawkins makes a cover and the crowd counts along for 1--------2-------3!
"Black"
hits again as Dawkins and Baccaro are handed their second tag team
championship. They hold the belts high and celebrate with the fans, leaving the
former champions laying in their wake.

Cade stops speaking and

Jaguar:
Keep what Nick? Keep knocking for no reason? I know the production department
and the director wants to hear from Vulture, but do him and yourself a favor

last time and even though we know he will, many say he won't walk back up that

SEGMENT 23:
MATCH 13: VULTURE VS. GREG
TANTALUS
Referee: Matt Hansen
The camera returns ringside with the fans
at a fever pitch, anxiously anticipating what's to come next. Moments later, the lights go out and VAST's
"Falling from the Sky" explodes onto the speakers, sending an
eruption of massive cheers through the capacity crowd. Decked out in his traditional black, Vulture
emerges from behind the curtain looking extremely amped up, yet subtly
tentative. He enters the ring, knowing
it will be the final time he does so, and takes a good look at the 70,000
strong filling Lincoln Financial Field.
Vulture removes his glasses and classic three-quarter length leather
jacket and awaits his final challenge.
He isn't made to wait long before Tea Party's "Temptation"
blasts onto the speakers and the
Troy: Alright, here we go!
Ferrara: This is a match we've been waiting for for a
long, long time!
Vulture and Tantalus stare down in the
center of the ring for several moments before finally locking up. After a brief struggle, Tantalus wins out,
locking Vulture in a side headlock.
Tantalus smiles, thinking that he's got the upper hand, but Vulture
quickly battles out, downing Tantalus with a big side suplex. The fans cheer for this, and cheer as both
Tantalus and Vulture hit their feet.
Vulture downs Tantalus with an armdrag, locking him in an armbar. However, Tantalus gets himself back to a
vertical base and pounds away on Vulture's head with his forearm, breaking the
hold. Tantalus then whips Vulture
against the ropes and downs him with a big spinebuster as he returns. Tantalus covers... one, two, and a kickout!
Ferrara: I'm telling you Troy, Vulture can't win! It's just not possible!
Tantalus proceeds to work over Vulture
with furious stomps to the head and neck area, keeping him down. Tantalus isolates the area, keeping Vulture at
bay with furious kicks. Finally,
Tantalus lets Vulture get to a vertical base, but only to floor him once again
with a huge right hand. Tantalus
controls the tempo for much of the early part of the match, beating him into
oblivion. Vulture has severe difficulty
through most of the first ten minutes of the match getting in any offense, and
has equal difficulty providing an effective defense against Tantalus’ skilled
and methodical attacks.
Ferrara: At this rate, Troy, he won’t
last much longer.
With Vulture down and severely beaten, Tantalus looks to go for the kill,
signaling for the Big O. However, as
Tantalus lifts Vulture for the move, the Hall of Famer blocks it, countering it
into a whip against the ropes. Vulture
then hits the ropes himself, and nails Tantalus with a huge knee to the face as
he returns! The fans cheer wildly at
this turn of events, beginning massive “Vulture” chants as Vulture looks to
pull himself back into the match.
Tantalus gets back to his feet, but Vulture is now ready and waiting for
him. Vulture stings Tantalus with
repeated blows to the jaw, staggering him backwards. Vulture pounds Tantalus back into the ropes,
whips him off, and downs the Smooth one with a huge spinebuster as he
returns! Vulture then locks on the
Sharpshooter, and the fans cheer wildly!
Tantalus: No! He just got the ropes!
As Tantalus grabs the ropes, referee Matt Hansen signals for
the hold to be broken, but Vulture, now on an absolute tear, doesn’t let it
faze him. Tantalus gets back up, but at
this point, little he attempts is having an effect on Vulture. Moments later, Vulture whips Tantalus into
the corner, perches him on the top rope, and delivers the famed spider suplex,
tossing Tantalus off the ropes while keeping himself balanced up there! Vulture then sits back up and delivers a
perfect moonsault, crashing down on Tantalus with crushing impact! Vulture covers… one, two, and Tantalus kicks
out!
Sensing Tantalus reeling, Vulture hits the rising Tantalus
with a big death valley driver, leaving him flat on his back. Then, Vulture signals for the top rope,
bringing all of Philly to its feet.
Vulture heads up to the top and dives off with the awesome Fallen Angel
frog splash for perhaps the final time!
Flashbulbs light off and, in one instant, Vulture connects with Tantalus
hard, knocking all the air out of him!
Vulture hooks the leg… one, two, thr-NO!
Vulture doesn’t look surprised as he gets to his feet, knowing
that just one move stands between him and victory. Vulture stalks behind Tantalus, looking for
that very move, and as Tantalus rises, Vulture lifts him for the Crimson
Sunset, but Tantalus manages to slip out, nailing the referee with a boot to
the head in the process! Matt Hansen
goes down in a heap, and Tantalus immediately takes advantage, clubbing Vulture
from behind in the neck! Vulture goes
down hard and Tantalus exits the ring, grabbing a chair, looking to do
permanent damage to Vulture while the moment is there. Tantalus gets back in the ring and begins
stalking Vulture, but unbeknownst to him, Lauren Tantalus, with a chair of her
own, is rushing down to the ring! Greg
Tantalus swings the chair, but Vulture ducks and grabs the chair out of his
hand as Lauren slides into the ring with her chair. Vulture then turns around… only to be whacked
in the face with a chair by Lauren Tantalus!
However, when Lauren Tantalus drops the chair and lets a sly
smile creep across her face a moment later, the awful truth is revealed that
this was no accident. Vulture collapsed
to the ground the second the shocking blow connected with his skull, not even
allowing time for a reaction to set in.
Lauren exits the ring as the referee begins to rise, and Greg Tantalus
goes in for the kill on an already defeated man. Tantalus lifts Vulture up and delivers the
G-Spot in thunderous fashion. Tantalus
then covers… one, two, three.

against not one, but two very dangerous men. Do you think you can get the first
pinfall over GI Jew or Solomon in this Triple Threat match?
Scythe: A lot of people have been asking me that actually. It’s hard enough
being in the same ring with GI Jew, but if you add Solomon in there, it’s gonna
be an all out war and certainly a challenge. But that’s why I’m the PWA
Champion. I live up to these challenges, and I will overcome the odds. The next

GI Jew: I couldn’t help but overhear you, Scythe. Let me just remind
you that I never lost the title. It was taken from me, and you happened to get
your hands on it, which is fine. But tonight, I’m taking my title back. I will
pin either you or Solomon, and become the PWA Champion again.

go through me, and I hope you realize that I’m not going to make it easy for
you. And hey, I may be attacking Solomon out there... But this blade can easily

The following contest is our main event of the evening and it is a triple
threat match, scheduled for one fall, for the PWA Heavyweight Championship of The
World! Introducing first, from Barrow,
Darkseed's "Hear Me"

As Solomon waits in the ring,
Slipknot's "Opium of The People" hits and the crowd immediately
begins to roar!

His opponent, from Queens, New York, weighing 233 pounds, he is The Golden Ring
Tournament Winner, he is G.........I........Jewwww!
Jew rides out on a brand new custom
Chopper with a large American Flag hanging on the back. A series of loud pyro
shoots up as he acknowledges the crowd and races down the long ramp before

entrance gear atop the ramp and holds his arms high to salute the crowd as two
large fire cannons swirl into the South Philly night air.
Troy: I
think the same can be said for all three, but they all look more than ready.
Scythe makes his way down to the
ring and hops on the middle turnbuckles, holding his title belt high for all to
see. He hands it to Tom Stevens, perhaps for the final time as the senior
referee holds it high into the air and calls for the bell.
All three men converge in the
center of the ring and trade a few words before quickly trading fists! The
crowd cheers as all three go blow for blow, but no advantage is had until GI
Jew and Scythe double team Solomon, eventually whipping him to the ropes and
downing him with a double clothesline.
As Solomon tries to get up, the

with two right hands before running to the ropes. He returns, but Solomon steps
forward to cut him off and levels him with a big boot to the face!
Solomon goes back to GI Jew and
tosses him into a corner, where he rams a shoulder into his midsection three
times. He whips him out and Jew is taken down hard with a double hand chop from
Scythe. Solomon takes a big swing at Scythe, but the champion ducks it and catches
him in position for a Flying Dragon, but Solomon's 300-pound frame is too much
to get up and Solomon easily swats him down.
Solomon then goes to work on
Scythe, stomping him about his head and shoulders before hoisting him up in a
gorilla press and dropping him down on the mat behind him. Solomon makes a
cover for one....and Jew drops a quick elbow to the back of his head.
Jew gets Solomon up and pummels
him with several shots to the head and body before slinging him into a corner. Jew
then backs up to the opposite corner and sets up for The Gore as Solomon clears
his cobwebs. Solomon walks out of the corner, but GI Jew is charging. Solomon,
a victim of more Gores than anyone else, has the move scouted and sidesteps GI
Jew as he smacks his shoulder right against the ringpost!
Scythe hits the ropes and comes
back at Solomon with a cross body block, but Solomon catches him in mid-air and
hoists him onto his shoulders before drilling the champion with a Deep Freeze!
While the crowd wonders about
Solomon's decision to not attempt a pin, his reasoning is clear as he grabs GI
Jew and gets him up before blasting him with a Deep Freeze as well! With both
men down, Solomon covers GI Jew for one....two....thre-, but Jew gets a foot on
the bottom rope!
Solomon argues with Stevens for a
bit before deciding to cover Scythe. He bends down to make the pin, but the
champion rolls him into an inside cradle for one....two....and a kickout by
Solomon. Both men get to their feet and Scythe ducks another Solomon shot to
sting him with a crescent kick. Solomon reels and Scythe sends him out of
the ring with a superkick to the jaw. He looks for a cover, but is met
with a GI Jew Gore from nowhere!
Jew makes a cover on Scythe and
the crowd counts along with Stevens for one....two....and he's pulled out of
the ring by Solomon!
GI Jew and Solomon battle
viciously on the outside, each nailing some sharp blows to the head. Solomon
tries to irish whip GI Jew, but the
Solomon gets to his feet and
tries to club GI Jew, but Jew ducks under it and hits Solomon above the kidneys
before hooking him in a pump handle and spikiing him with a Magnum Driver right
on the arena floor!
The crowd cheers Jew's seemingly
inhuman strength, but the former champion slowly rolls into the ring to try to
finish off Scythe. Jew gets a groggy Scythe up to his feet, looking for The
Magnum Driver, but Scythe blocks it and grabs him around the neck to drill him
with a Flying Dragon! Scythe gains his senses and sees Solomon down and out as
he drags GI Jew to a corner.
The crowd is roaring as Scythe
makes a slow climb up to the top rope, but his motion isn't slow as he soars
backwards and drives the air from Jew's body with a picture-perfect Diving
Blade! Scythe hooks the far leg and Stevens counts 1------2-----3!
"With You" hits again
and the crowd noise is immense as Stevens hands Scythe his title belt for the
champion to hold high. Solomon stirs on the stadium floor, but drops his head
back down in anguish as Scythe celebrates in the ring.
After posing in all four corners
with the belt, Scythe waits as GI Jew begins to stir. Jew remains on one knee
as Scythe stares at him and his music stops. The crowd murmurs to see what will
happen, but Jew simply pounds the canvas out of supreme frustration and rolls
out of the ring without even looking at the champion.
"With You" plays again
and Scythe drapes the belt across the canvas before bowing on his knees in
respect to the crowd as scores of fireworks shoot into the summer air and
Everlasting Epic 3 comes to a close.
