Hell in a Cell
Roman Gunn vs. Shadowlove vs. Teo Blaze vs. Gerard Angelo vs. Tatiana Jolee vs. Downfall(c)
The strobe lights and cameras begin flashing madly, as the spotlights fall on the Hell in a Cell cage. It’s beginning to descend, slowly, from the rafters, as a suspenseful drum rhythm is pounding through the speakers, driving the scene forward ominously, a feeling of impending doom and uncertainty hanging over the crowd and a ripple of excitement.
Ethan Miller: Ladies and gentlemen, it is time… for our MAIN EVENT!! It is a Six-Man HELL IN A CELL match… and it is for… THE ACTION WRESTLING WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!!
The drum beat continues, as the Cell is slowly being lowered.
Chris Avery: I can’t think of the last time a World Title match has held such stakes, Billy.
Billy: People’s careers, and the direction of Action Wrestling going forward, are on the line!!
BUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUM
BUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUM
BUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUMBUM
Ethan Miller: INTRODUCING FIRST…
Chris Avery: Let’s get to the entrances, this is going to be a who’s who!!
King of King's guitar riff hits and the crowd boos as the voice yells "On your knees, dog" Tobias Hoffman walks through the curtain and stands before turning back as Roman Gunn slowly walks from behind the curtain 2 paces behind him..
The crowd roaring with boos as Roman stops on the stage and looks around.
Bow down to the... bow down to the king!
Bow down to the... bow down to the king!
Roman slowly turns to his left as Tobias nods in approval and bowing down to the king. He smiles and looks back up at the crowd and all of this while the first verse is being rocked to the masses. Roman slowly lifts up the one finger.
Pyro blasts off behind him as the lyrics yell out once again!
Bow down to the... bow down to the king!
Bow down to the... bow down to the king!
Ethan Miller: FROM THE ISLANDS OF SAMOA.. HE WAS THE LONGEST REIGNING CHAMPION OF ALL TIME.. HE IS THE UNDENIABLE... ROOMMAAANNN... GUUNNNN
Roman begins to head down the ramp and walks down the ramp with Tobias walking right to his left, with full on swagger and a slimey smile.
The crowd boos as Roman climbs up the steel steps..
BOW DOWN TO THE .. BOW DOWN TO THE KING!
Roman steps into the ring as Tobias steps in right behind him. Roman enters the ring and climbs up the turnbuckles .. He closes his eyes and smells the pitiful stank air of the smelly marks and smarks packed in the arena and Roman opens his eyes and slowly lifts up the one finger.
Bow down! Bow down! Bow down to the...
Bow down! Bow down! Bow down! Bow down to the...
Bow down! Bow down to the... Bow down to the...
BOW DOWN TO THE KING!!!
Roman comes off the turnbuckles and gets into his corner as Tobias gets onto the apron and drops back down.
Chris Avery: Roman Gunn, with Tobias Hoffman and Isara, have made themselves a force to be reckoned with here!
Ethan Miller: And his first opponent…
“HER STRUT” by Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band starts to play on the Bose® (product placement) SoundTouch® (product placement) indoor and outdoor surround sound system throughout the arena.
Shadow’s sweet and lovely Miyamoto leads the way down the aisle with flirty seductive confidence as Shadow follows a few steps behind her enjoying the view of her attractive and well-proportioned, slim, trim, toned body built for sin as they make their way towards the squared-circle. Shadow pushes a few AW fans back and sloberknockers one AW fan in particular that tried to get a little too close to his sweet and lovely Miyamoto.
Ethan Miller: And making his way down the aisle, being accompanied to the ring tonight by "The Fashionista Sensei" Miss Miyamoto, hailing from North East Okayama Prefecture on the border of Hyogo Prefecture, in the quaint little village of Miyamoto in Mimasaka, Japan, weighing in tonight at 235 pounds, here is, the one, the only, "The Handsome Half-breed”, SHADOWLOVE!!
Shadow slides into the squared-circle like, well, like the slithering snake in the grass that he is while showing off his arrogance at just how mockingly proud he really was to be reappearing in Action Wrestling. Shadow slides a custom-made pair of carbon and tungsten 129/250 C6 Irid Polar Oakley sunglasses on his face like David Caruso in CSI Miami. His sweet and lovely Miyamoto, with Bushidō catlike precision, walks up the ringside steps, with flirty and seductive confidence, and enters the squared-circle through the second rope in a very highly provocative fashion.
Chris Avery: Shadowlove took the World Champion to a hell of a fight a few weeks ago, and, despite Downfall’s insistence that he doesn’t belong in this match, held his own for a while!
Billy: I’m so glad we got the abridged version of his entrance, though, we’ve already got enough to get to without getting into TFK pointing, bodyguards posing, paparazzi staring at Miyamoto’s ass and all that other stuff we don’t need to see for ten minutes!!
Ethan Miller: Introducing next…
The guitar opening of “Plowed” by Sponge begins to bellow out over the P.A system bringing the attention to the stage as the lights strobe as if in sync with the tempo of the song.
Will I wake up, some dream I made up
No, I guess it's reality
What will change us, or will we mess up
Our only chance to connect with a dream
-KA-BOOM!-
The fireworks explode off the top of the tron bringing the end to the strobes as a spotlight illuminates the figure of Tatiana Jolee standing there. Dressed in her blackout ring attire with matching boots and pads - her hair is pulled up in a bun and she has a black leather jacket with the Canadian flag on the back.
Will I wake up, some dream I made up
No, I guess it's reality
What will change us, or will we mess up
Our only chance to connect with a dream
Say a prayer for me
(Say a prayer for me)
Say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me
(Say a prayer for me)
I'm buried by the sound
Of a world of human wreckage
In a world of human wreckage
In a world of human wreckage
Where I'm lost and I'm found, and I can't touch the ground
I'm plowed into the sound
To her side steps her manager, Ruby Goldhirsch dressed in a classy business savvy designer outfit, and after a nod to one another, the duo makes their way down the ramp to the ring.
Ethan Miller: Making her way to the ring, accompanied by Ruby Goldhirsch - from Vancouver, British Columbia… TATIANA JOOOOOLEEEE!
To see wide open with a head that's broken
Hang a life on some tragedy
Plow me under the ground that covers
The message that is the seed
After a quick conversation with Ruby on the outside, TJ walks up the ring steps, gliding across the apron before entering the ring through the middle ropes. She gives the hard camera a smirk and a little wink while removing her jacket before settling into the corner to await the start of her match.
Chris Avery: If there’s one person in this match that you KNOW has a gripe about being booked in this match, it’s Tatiana, remember, she should be the number one contender based on the controversy at Turmoil!
Billy: I’m sure she thinks Downfall and Brady Bolt are just out to get her here by pitting her against this entire rogue’s gallery. But she’s proven, in the barbed-wire cage against Jill Park, she can rise above adversity.
Ethan Miller: Introducing next…
The arena’s lights go black, plunging the inside into darkness causing a nervous murmur to flush over the crowd. The ActionTron lights up suddenly, reflecting the night sky over water when stars start flying at the screen with the familiar orchestra music. They turn on the water and fly toward a familiar mountain with the sunrise behind it. The 21 stars form two-thirds of a circle over the mountain but instead of “Paramount”, the cursive font reads “Gerard Angelo” and the crowd fucking boos.
“I CAN’T STOP!”
The lights start to flash as “STOP” repeats repeatedly from different speakers in the arena as the beat builds and then drops.
BOOM
An explosion of gold fireworks goes off.
“I CAN’T STOP!”
The house lights come back on as the hook of “Who Gon Stop Me” rings out through the jam-packed arena as the crowd continues to boo. The lights come back on as Kanye West’s voice serenades the people as they give loud boos, Gerard Angelo is shown standing on stage, back to the crowd, the hood of his hoodie pulled up, right arm raised above his head at an angle, one finger extended. The All-In briefcase is grasped by the handle in his other hand. He throws his hood back with his right hand and spins around to the crowd, one arm extended like he’s absorbing another wave of booing, the other holding the briefcase up, a cocky smirk etched across his face as he surveys the crowd behind his trademark sunglasses, He makes his way down to the ring slowly, brushing off fans and taunting them.
Ethan Miller: From Hollywood, California, weighing in at 225 lbs, he is Mister ALLLLL-IN, the Living Legend, GERRRRRARD ANGELOOOOOOOOO!
He stops at the ring stairs, slaps the top step before climbing them, and walks to the center of the ring apron, raising the All-In briefcase up to the crowd. Angelo surveys the arena crowd again to another round of boos, and poses, pyro exploding from the four ring posts. Gerard slips through the middle and top rope into the ring. He walks to the opposite ring post, setting the briefcase on the mat before leaping onto the second turnbuckle. Gerry points to the crowd before unzipping his hoodie, which gets more than a few ladies in the audience to scream out, pulling it off and pretending to toss it to the fans before just dropping it on the floor with a smirk. "The Hollywood Hero" hops down, sticking the briefcase in the corner. He removes his sunglasses, placing them on top of the briefcase neatly before he leans back against the turnbuckles, mouthing off to the fans as he starts to stretch.
The lights begin flashing wildly, alternating between plain white light and dark red shades, as a haunting, almost sinister sound fills the arena. Suddenly, a roaring guitar riff echoes throughout the arena as a crash of static appears on the screens, followed by a message:
Technical Difficulties, Please Do Not Adjust Your Set
Ethan Miller: …From Houston, Texas, weighing in at 195 lbs… TEO BLAZE!!!
Then, without warning, the static is consumed by a smiling, dark red face as the ramp lights up with a burst of flame! The instant the flames fade, standing in the center, as though the flames themselves had summoned him, is Teo Blaze. He wears a bright red and gold mask over his face, matching the face that appeared on the tron moments ago. He turns towards the ring, his head hanging slightly to one side limply, even unnaturally, then slowly, he reaches up, and with his left hand...he removes the mask to reveal his face, an expression of wild abandon etched across it, a crooked smile showing a row of bright teeth. With a sinister laugh, he begins walking purposefully towards the ring, his eyes wild with anticipation- yet there is a determined swagger in his step, and as he walks up the stairs to the ring, he holds out the mask in front of him with one hand, the smile on his face matching the mask's smile perfectly. Finally, he steps into the ring, stretching loosely and preparing for the match.
Chris Avery: Teo has been on a HELL of a roll, and really impressed Brady Bolt in his showings at Turmoil, so much so that he’s been given one last shot, one last opportunity to challenge for the biggest prize of them all!!
Ethan Miller: And finally…
There's a pregnant pause in the air before the lights in the arena shut down, one by one, with an audible CHOOM as each section goes dark. The crowd sits in unsteady, uncomfortable silence there, in the dark, for a full thirty seconds. And then, cutting through the stilled silence, quickfire staccato burst of kickdrums and shredding guitar in the intro to Slipknot's opus "Before I Forget", and the Tron's image changes to a close-up of a wolf's eye, gold against a black screen, and the animatic changes to bared, slavering lupine teeth, opening, and then biting down; A spray of red blood splatters over the screen as Corey Taylor shouts "GO!!"
"Stapled shut! Inside an outside world and I'm
Sealed in tight! Bizarre but right at home
Claustrophobic! Closing in and I'm
Catastrophic! Not again,
I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline,
I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene.
Catch me up on all your sordid little insurrections,
I've got no time to lose, I'm just caught up in all the cattle.
Fray the strings, throw the shapes,
Hold your breath, listen;"
A spotlight cuts through the darkness to a point on the stage where Downfall's kneels one knee on the stage amid a cloud of pyrotechnic smoke and fog, head bowed, tracing the fingers of his right hand across the ramp, then he slowly raises his head to look at the ring. He's wearing his slashed denim vest with a black hood underneath, pulled up over his head, and, to chilling effect, as he looks up into the bright spotlight over him, smoke rolling onto the stage, it can be seen that his face underneath the hood is hidden behind a white skeletal mask with empty eye sockets, and a long snout culminating in pointed teeth: a wolf's skull.
"I! Am the world before I am a man,
I! Was a creature before I could stand,
I! Will remember before I forget...
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!!
I! Am the world before I am a man,
I! Was a creature before I could stand,
I! Will remember before I forget...
BEFORE I FORGET THAT!!"
Ethan Miller: From Chicago, Illinois… weighing in at 217 lbs… he is the Purveyor of Anarchy… the REIGNING, DEFENDING AW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…… DOWNFALL!!!!In his left hand, he is carrying a long, curved, black iron crowbar. The arena lights brighten, and then, he begins his walk down to the ring, holding the crowbar perched over his shoulder and behind his neck. He cracks his neck to the side in an aggressive manner as he gets to the end of the ramp. Then, he goes around to the ring, pacing over to climb on the apron, and he takes just a moment to breathe it in as he rests a leg on the ropes themselves, and slowly pulls the wolf skull mask up to rest on the top of his head, before pacing to the turnbuckles and ascending, quickly, to the second rope, crossing his wrists in an X. He hops down, taking the skull mask off, shrugging out of the slashed denim vest, and laying the crowbar down in the corner, circling the ring like a shark, tensely pulling on the top rope to stretch.
Chris Avery: Downfall is looking intense and focused as always, but remember what’s hanging over his head in this match. He has said, if he loses the AW World Title, at any time, it will conclude his story. It will finish what he set out to do, and he will accept it and walk away for good.
Billy: There has never been another champion in the history of this company like Downfall. Fearsome, dominating, I know he has a tough task tonight, but he looks READY!!
The cage continues descending, nearly at the bottom, as the drums continue to beat, and the competitors stare at each other, tensely waiting for the Cell to lower and the match to begin.
Chris Avery: It's time! The Final Chapter main event is going to be decided, as all six competitors are standing eye to eye! You can cut the tension with a knife!
Billy: The Cell is being lowered into place! The air is electric, this match is going to be badass!
DING DING DING
The bell sounds, as all of the various competitors, each of whom have had their own, side rivalries through this whole thing, stare each other down.
Teo Blaze and Roman Gunn lock eyes.
Tatiana Jolee and Gerard Angelo get face to face.
Downfall and Shadowlove talk trash to each other, heatedly. Nothing resolved from their singles match a few weeks ago.
The crowd is buzzing, not knowing WHAT is going to happen as the bell sounds, and Downfall kicks it off by charging right in and punching Shadowlove DEAD in the face!
Then Teo and Roman Gunn begin wildly exchanging fists, and Tatiana and Gerard start throwing blows as well, and it all breaks down into a six-way fist fight in the middle of the ring whil the crowd goes fucking insane, ramping up the intensity, and each man throws their hardest shot. Shadowlove goes to swing at Downfall, but Downfall drops Shadow with a head butt. Downfall, satisfied yet again by causing Shadowlove some considerable pain, stands over him; Roman Gunn breaks off from slugging Teo in the corner, spotting the World Champion's back turned. Roman charges Downfall, going for a Superman punch. Scouting it, Downfall ducks, and Roman runs into the turnbuckle, then staggers back towards the center. Downfall goes for a Beast Kick, but before he can snap it off, Gerard Angelo comes in, locks onto his back and sends him flying with one German suplex. Gerard snarls and points to the crowd, dragging Downfall back up, and goes for a second, Shadowlove gets up. Before Gerard can pull off the second suplex he is raked in the eye by Palmer. Gerard breaks the hold. Shadowlove, and Roman Gunn, both look at each other, then look at Gerard, and, sensing they need to take this guy out, run at Gerard with a double clothesline and knock him down. They pick Gerard up and hit a double suplex. They lift Gerard up and throw him into the cage, sending him bouncing backwards. Downfall pulls himself up his feet, but he is stopped by Tatiana Jolee, who grabs his head by the back and goes to slam him in the corner. Downfall grimaces, not liking the chaotic start to this, and he reverses, slamming Tatiana into the corner, and bouncing her head off the turnbuckle. Tatiana groans, and holds her jaw. Downfall lifts Tatiana up, and lands a blistering chop in the corner. Tatiana stumbles out, as Downfall pursues her. Downfall lays several more boots to Tatiana, then he pulls Tatian over to the cage and begins pushing her face into the side of the Cell with his boot, grinding it back and forth, causing Tatiana's mouth to stretch wide with agony at her skin being raked back and forth. On one side of the ring, Shadowlove and Roman are stomping and clubbing Gerard down, and then Downfall, pushing Tatiana against the Cell backs up to the opposite side of the ring, then flies in with a dropkick smashing Tatiana into the side of the Cell! Downfall turns around, spotting Shadowlove again, and he goes to move that way, and suddenly, Teo Blaze roars to life with a springboard crossbody, taking Downfall by surprise. Teo goes for one cover...
Chris Avery: The action has come in hot and heavy and we're only in the first minute!!
Billy: Teo has already gone for a cover!!
ONE!
Tatiana, sensing her hopes to regain the World Title slipping away, dives in on Teo and stomps him. Teo rolls, groggily off, tries to go for the cover, and Tatiana doubles him over with a boot to the gut, then hits a t-bone suplex. She covers Teo now...
ONE!
Gerard breaks it up, pulling Tatiana off by the foot, and angrily, he lifts Tatiana by the back of her head and sends her SMASHING into the side of the Hell in a Cell like a lawn dart! Tatiana rolls out of the ring, and rolls to the space between the apron and the Cell wall. Gerard paces around the ring, holding his hands up in the air, arrogantly, and Shadowlove comes towards him, Gerard gives Shadowlove the finger! The Supervillain Superhero Supermodel swings at Gerard with an incensed right, and Gerard fires back with a right of his own. Back and forth Gerard and Shadowlove trade hits, until Roman puts Gerard to his knees with a low blow, and throws him into the corner. Shadowlove turns around, and Roman boots him in the gut and slams his head off the Cell wall. Shadowlove flops back, and begins holding his beautiful face in agony, worried his moneymaker is in jeopardy. Then, Roman turns around, and Roman is clocked by Teo Blaze of all people, who has retrieved the first deadly implement, a steel chair!! Teo waffles Roman Gunn with a swing for the rafters!
Chris Avery: Teo is wearing Roman Gunn out with that chair!! Revenge for the beatdown the Samoan Dynasty put on him!!
Roman rolls and contorts around on the mat, groaning in pain, and Teo lands shot after shot with the steel chair to his shoulder blades and back, until the chair's seat is dented! Then, Teo turns to the crowd, holding the dented chair up, to a roar from the crowd!! However, that elation, is short lived as Shadowlove comes in, and he turns Teo around and throws a handful of POWDER in Teo's eyes, which poofs hard enough to cause a cloud! Teo is blinded! Shadowlove smiles, and blows kisses to Miss Miyamoto on the outside!
Chris Avery: Oh, get him out of here!!
Billy: Believe me, I think that everyone, in the crowd, backstage, and building would like it if we got him out of here!
Shadowlove smiles broadly, and goes to hook Teo's arms for the Dark Gift, but suddenly, Shadowlove is blasted over the head by a shot from a BARBED WIRE WRAPPED TWO BY FOUR! Shadowlove falls, and is immediately out, while Roman Gunn celebrates, having come up with an even deadlier weapon. Roman Gunn then goes to Teo, who is staggering around, one hand still on the steel chair, and is stumbling around blinded... Roman lifts the barbed wire wrapped 2x4 up over his head... about to go for a blow which will surely brain Teo like a baby seal... but then, Teo whips the chair up, and a loud CRASSSH goes up as the barbed wire 2x4 hits the steel chair, and they cross like swords! Both men drop their weapons, and hold their hands out as if the vibrations caused a force which turned their hands to jelly. Roman turns to Teo, but Teo recovers faster, charging in with a clothesline that takes Roman over the top rope and out to the steel platform! Teo steps out to the steel where he picks Roman by both legs before falling backwards catapulting Roman into the steel chain link fencing! Roman bounces off the chain link and crumbles to the platform. Meanwhile, as Teo starts to work his way back to his feet we see that the Hollywood Hero has recovered and re-enters the ring. Gerard explodes towards the ropes where he dives through the top and middle rope with a spear to Teo! The crowd explodes with the offensive move!
Chris Avery: Oh my god!
“THIS IS AWESOME” starts to build throughout the arena as Gerard Angelo is the first to his feet. He picks Teo up off the steel before tossing him back into the ring. Gerard climbs the nearest set of turnbuckles, as he measures Teo as he starts to work his way back to a vertical base. Once standing Gerard Angelo sets sail with a Missile Dropkick! Teo side steps the All-In winner, sending Gerard crashing and burning! Teo takes control with a Oklahoma Roll to Angelo that stacks Gerard’s shoulders to the mat.
ONE!
TWO!!
NO!!!
Tatiana breaks it up!!
Chris Avery: There is no way, with so many bodies in this match, that anyone is going to easily get a pinfall.
Angelo works his way to his feet, holding his back, and he turns, right into Tatiana, who scoops him up and slams him on top of Teo. Tatiana then grabs both Gerard's AND Teo's legs, trying to keep all four limbs together as best she can... then steps over, and ties them both over her knee, and sits back, executing a SHARPSHOOTER ON GERARD AND TEO AT THE SAME TIME! Teo, on Gerard's back's, head shoots up, and both men are trapped, sandwiched together, all of their arms flailing for purchase and Gerard swatting at Teo. Tatiana, small and slight as she is, is having trouble sitting all the way down to keep both men locked in a Double Sharpshooter, but she's holding on for all she's worth! There is a long, multi second pause, where it looks as if one of the hands will tap...
Chris Avery: Tatiana has two men locked in the Sharpshooter!! How long can Teo or Angelo go??
Billy: Alls it takes is ONE PERSON to tap, and then this match is over!!
Suddenly, Downfall's boot enters the picture, connecting SOLIDLY with Tatiana as he blasts her dead in the jaw with a Beast Kick, knocking her off of the Double Sharpshooter! Tatiana falls back, and Teo and Gerard's legs are uncoiled from around her knee. Downfall is shown pushing himself up off the mat and back to a vertical base. Teo, holding his legs, tries to come back to his feet, and a merciless Downfall grabs him and dumps him right on his damn neck with a snap dragon suplex. Suddenly, Downfall's attention turns to the outside, where he sees Shadowlove, bleeding from the shot with barbed wire, being helped up and cheered on on the outside by Miyamoto. Downfall runs towards the ropes where he leaps over the top rope with a suicide dive on to Shadowlove! Shadowlove catches Downfall before shoving him backwards yet Downfall lands on his feet and he and Shadowlove begins a heated exchange of right hands!
Chris Avery: You just know with all the bad blood between Downfall and Shadowlove, this is going to break down!
Shadowlove misses with a wild right hand which allows for Downfall to gouge Shadowlove in the eyes before taking him head first into the chain link fencing! Downfall starts to rake Shadowlove’s face across the chain link, making him squeal as the links cut into his forehead even more, while in the ring, Gerard crawls towards Tatiana who’s not moved from the Superkick. Gerard makes the cover hooking the nearest leg.
ONE!
TWO!!
KICKOUT!!!
Out on the narrow space between the Cell wall and the ring apron, Downfall continues to rake Shadowlove’s face across the chain link! He finally pulls Shadowlove away from shredding his god damn forehead like cabbage, looking to throw him into the steel ringpost, however, at the last possible second Shadowlove reverses and its Downfall who’s sent beaming headfirst right into the pole, smacking with such a wet, sickening thud that it elicits an "OOOOOOH" in sympathy from the people at ringside. Downfall falls to the small area between the ring, and his eyes are glazed, and a trickle of blood is running down his forehead. Cameras pick up Shadowlove’s face and he too is bleeding. Shadowlove kneels down and mounts Downfall, and begins to hammer down with right hands, while inside the ring, Gerard works his way back to his feet. He reaches down picking Tatiana up off the mat before driving her back into a neutral corner. Gerard hoists Tatiana up to the top turnbuckle before hammering away with a right hand. Gerard steps up on the middle turnbuckle where he grabs her from the side and takes them BOTH OFF THE TOP ROPE WITH A SPANISH FLY!! WHAT -
Chris Avery: FALLING STAR TO TATIANA JOLEE!
Billy: Gerard is pulling out anything he can! This is a hell of a performance from the leading man!!
Gerard lays on the mat, next to Tatiana, momentarily too beaten down to cover her. On the outside of the ring, Roman immediately comes running in and annihilates a very dazed Shadowlove with The Spear. Teo looks on, looking surprisingly okay with that at first, and yet when Teo rolls to the outside and tries to move towards Roman, the aggressive Samoan takes a few short steps and crushes him with an explosive The Spear as well. Now conscious of the surging threat on the outside, Gerard rushes in, furiously booting Roman and not letting him get his footing, but the powerhouse still pushes his way to his knees, and meets Gerard with an uppercut to the jaw that makes him stumble back. Roman rushes in, going for a clothesline, but Gerard ducks, and when Roman turns around, coming back off the ropes, Gerard hits him with a dropkick. Gerard calls out to the crowd, making some motions about how it's his time, and he backs up to the ropes and runs towards Roman. On the return, though, Roman meets him right in the middle of the ring, cutting him in half with a Spear that folds Gerard up like a goddamn paper doll. Gerard rolls around on the mat, holding his midsection, and Roman hurls him back in the ring.
Chris Avery: Roman Gunn has hit this damn ring like a runaway train, nailing every man in his sight with the Spear!
Roman gets to his feet and as soon as he senses an opponent coming near, he catches Tatiana with right hands, backing her up to the ropes. Tatiana swings wildly with a clothesline which Roman ducks, he drives Tatiana into the mat with a side suplex before springing back to her feet. Shadowlove is shown pulling himself to his feet, Roman drives a running knee to the ribs sending Shadowlove through the ropes and on to the steel platform, Roman steps through the ropes to the steel platform, he grabs both legs of Shadowlove before falling backwards, slingshooting Shadowlove into the chain link fencing! Across the ring, Gerard, who's taken a beating is shown getting back to a vertical base. Roman picks up Shadowlove, he sends him sailing into a padlocked door of the Cell Wall with so much force that the chains locking it shake... and then, as Shadowlove is splattered against the chainlinked door, Roman comes running in with a fourth and final Spear... and SPEARS THE DOOR OF THE CELL STRAIGHT OFF IT'S HINGES, SMASHING THROUGH IT!! The roof comes unglued as a massive HOLY SHIT chant fills the arena!
Chris Avery: SHADOWLOVE HAS BEEN BROKEN IN HALF AND SMASHED THROUGH THE DOOR TO HELL IN A CELL!!!
Billy: That's gonna let a hell of a draft in.
Gerard and Tatiana react to seeing the collapsed pod with Shadowlove and Roman in it as they both get to their feet. Gunn is actually cut pretty badly on his arms and forehead from the impact with the chain links cutting into him, but damn, Shadowlove is much worse. It doesn't even look like he's alive. Roman is starting to crawl over, and might just pin Shadowlove right there.Tatiana, hungrily, shoos them out of the way, and he senses blood in the water (so to speak) and he boots the injured Roman a few times, as if after that devastating spear he has the big man softened up enough to pin him. In fact, he tries just that, crawling in for a cover, but before the referee can position himself Gerard comes in and gives Tatiana a soccer-like punt to the side of the ribs, making Tatiana snap and roll off the cover, holding his ribs. Gerard aggressively lifts his nemesis Tatiana up and slams her head off the twisted metal of the broken door and support struts, and Tatiana flings back, holding her face. Gerard lifts Tatiana up, and throws her over the ropes to dump him into the ring again, and he checks on Roman for a second, then lays him out with a few rights to the forehead. Then he climbs in after Tatiana, who is picking her way to her feet, and Gerard comes behind her with a reverse neckbreaker. Tatiana rolls and contorts on the mat, holding her neck. Gerard then goes to the ropes and hits a picture perfect moonsault, a rarity for him! Gerard is too winded to capitalize on a pin, but he slowly pushes himself up. Gerard lifts Tatiana up, and nails her with an inverted exploder suplex. Tatiana looks to be out.
Chris Avery: EXCALIBUR PRIME!!
Just as Gerard is going for the cover, there is a clattering in the ring, that we aren't sure what is going on, but suddenly, DOWNFALL comes back in, sliding a LADDER in the ring, and he lifts it up and SMASHES IT across the back of Gerard Angelo!! Downfall lays the ladder in the corner, lifts Gerard up, and shouts "You're out of shortcuts now, bitch!!" and he throws Gerard face first into the ladder! Downfall paces around, and he holds his arms out, taking in the reaction of the crowd! Gerard flops to his back, grimacing and in a lot of pain. Now, Downfall starts ascending the ladder, and there is just a moment where the years are rolling back, and Downfall is in his element, as he climbs up to the top of the ladder. The crowd roars louder and louder for Downfall who comes off the top of the ladder with a SENTON BOMB, coming down with the reckless speed of a comet crashing to earth... but it is not to be, at the very last instant, Gerard rolls out of the way, and Downfall crashes and burns!! A winded Gerard pushes himself up on all fours, and looks at Downfall, as if he's seen a ghost, Downfall came that close.
Chris Avery: None of these men are going to be the same after this affair tonight!
Billy: Downfall is throwing all caution to the wind, it's as he said, only he is jumping into this without a safety net!!
Meanwhile, a bloody and battered Roman picks Shadowlove up off the mat and drives him back into a set of buckles. Roman choke Shadowlove with a boot across the throat, until Teo Blaze comes up behind Roman and rolls him up with a inside cradle.
Billy: Everyone has taken a hell of a beating, Teo might have his best chance??
Chris Avery: Could we finally see Teo make the transition to Heavyweight Champ??
ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Teo stares, disappointed and beside himself, and starts picking himself up, laying some stomps to Roman. Meanwhile, Gerard, gingerly, pushes himself up off the mat before making his way towards Downfall, and he lifts his broken opponent up, and performs a DDT to the AW World Champion! Gerard covers...
ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Downfall kicks out to a massive gasp from the crowd which is followed by a very loud “THIS IS AWESOME” chant from the raucous arena, as Gerard reaches his feet where he turns around and is met by Roman’s right hand across the throat! Roman hoists Gerard up in the air before driving him down into the mat with a sitout powerbomb.
Chris Avery: The action is all over the place I can hardly call it!
Roman turns around where he’s met with a spinning heel kick from Shadowlove right on the chin. Now, Shadowlove, bleeding all over, especially pouring a crimson mask of blood across his ruined features, grimacing and snarling, he tucks Roman in and gives him a double underhook facebuster, the Seductive Handsomeness! Shadowlove covers Roman!
ONE!
TWO!!
THR--KICKOUT!!!
Roman kicks out once again! Shadowlove is the first who reaches his feet as he shifts his attention towards Downfall. Shadowlove reaches down picking Downfall up off the mat before shooting him across the ring, but Downfall runs right into Tatiana, who drops him with a Codebreaker! Tatiana spots Shadowlove, incoming, who sidesteps and throws HIM out of the ring, and Tatiana covers Downfall...
ONE!
TWO!!
THRRRR---NOOOO!!!
Teo breaks it up!!
Tatiana is lifted up, and Teo blasts her with a BLAZING KNEE! Teo drops into a cover on Tatiana!
ONE!
TWO!!
THRRRR---NOOOO!!!
Roman Gunn breaks it up!!
Roman holds up his loaded glove, and pounds the mat, letting out an "OOOOOOAH", as he holds his hands out and adjusts the strap on the loaded glove (never a better time for it than in this match) he motions for Teo to get up, charges in, and SMASHES him with a Superman punch with the loaded glove! Roman goes for the cover...
ONE!
TWO!!
THRRRR---NOOOO!!!
Gerard breaks it up with a CURB STOMP to Roman while Roman is draped over for a pin!!
Chris Avery: HOLLYWOOD ENDING! HOLLYWOOD ENDING!!
Billy: ANGELO IS TRYING TO REBOOT HIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP INTO A SUCCESSFUL NEW FRANCHISE!!
Angelo sinks down, sweat and blood dripping down his forehead, and exhaustedly drapes an arm over the fallen Roman.
ONE!
TWO!!
THRRRR---NOOOO!!!
Tatiana desperately dives in and breaks it up!
Angelo and Tatiana bitterly exchange rights, exhausted and moving in slow motion as they both sit up, but as they push their way up to their knees, then to their feet, Tatiana lets out a loud shriek and begins firing up on Angelo, peppering him with right hand after right hand, until he falls limply back into the ropes on spaghetti legs. He stumbles forth, falling into Tatiana, and she grabs him and pulls him down into a sloppy, exhausted, single leg variation of the Codebreaker, and his jaw bounces off her shin bone and he falls back. Tatiana blinks, a bit stunned, and doesn't seem to know where she's at for a moment... then, Tatiana grimaces, pushing Angelo over onto his shoulders, and covering...
Chris Avery: JOLEE IS COMING FOR THE TITLE SHE SWEARS SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE LOST!
ONE!
TWO!!
THRRRR---NOOOO!!!
Downfall breaks it off, VIOLENTLY, by smashing Tatiana between the shoulder blades with a crowbar!!
Tatiana arches her back and rolls around, holding her back and shoulder, in a great deal of pain. Downfall grimly clenches the crowbar with the steely gaze of a gunslinger, sighting all of the opposition arrayed around the ring, and he sees Shadowlove, bleeding profusely, standing up first. Miss Miyamoto shrieks out to her love, but it's too late, Downfall savagely grips the bar in two hands, running the crowbar in and SPIKING it into Shadowlove's forehead! Shadowlove falls, and immediately begins shrieking and holding his face. Downfall turns, seeing Teo Blaze coming towards him, and he grips the end of the crowbar in both hands now like a bat, and Teo runs straight in to a wince inducing shot that could cave in some ribs. Teo rolls away, holding his ribs, and Downfall turns again, spotting Roman Gunn, and Downfall doesn't waste a second in smashing Roman over the head with the crowbar now, dropping him as well! Downfall stands in the ring, chest rising and falling, and raises his crowbar; His finest moment, to him, a king holding court.
Now, Downfall turns to Tatiana, lifting her up with a jerk onto his shoulders, and falling to his back and driving her face onto his knees, and Tatiana falls off to the side!
Chris Avery: GODKILLER!! GODKILLER!!
Downfall turns back to Shadowlove, grabbing him by the bloodied hair, and pulling him up again, then he makes a motion and blows a kiss to Miss Miyamoto... then he DROPS back and smashes Shadowlove onto his knees with more force than he did Tatiana!!
Chris Avery: And a second GODKILLER! DOWNFALL IS DOMINANT IN THE CELL TONIGHT!
Downfall is so focused on Miyamoto now, that he points to her and points to Shadowlove, spitefully motioning that this trash is done for, and sinking down for a cover. However, Gerard Angelo suddenly rushes in and dumps Downfall out of the ring!

Billy: Downfall took his eye off the prize!
Gerard looks at Shadowlove slowly pushing off of the mat and he doesn't hesitate to curb stomp his fucking face into the fucking canvas.
Billy: SHITFIRE!!! HOLLYWOOD ENDING!!!
Chris Avery: THERE'S THE COVER!!!
