Welcome back, VCW fans, and we're ready to kick off the exciting conclusion of Disaster Area 2001! We're going straight into our next match now, which should be a thrilling contest pitting the devestating force of Crimson against the experience and savvy of "Macho Man" Randy Savage. "Walk" by Pantera kicks on on the arena sound system, and the crowd explodes into boos as Crimson comes out of the backstage entrance, looking around at the crowd with a surly expression of disgust. He makes his way to the ring, then climbs up on the apron and steps in over the top rope to the inside. Once there, he raises a fist high in the air and bellows at the crowd, which gives him another round of boos. He doesn't seem worried about Randy Savage in the least... and in a few minutes, we'll be finding out whether that confidence is misplaced.
Now... wait!! That's "Pomp and Circumstance" that's playing over the arena sound system... and the crowd rises to its feet, exploding into cheers as "Macho Man" Randy Savage steps out of the backstage entrance, wearing brightly-colored tights, with a matching jacket with tassels and a cowboy hat, in addition to a pair of sunglasses! He's dressed just like he used to dress back in the old days, and the crowd's on its feet!! Crimson's shocked and disgusted as he stares at Randy Savage, who comes to the ring, pointing out at the crowd occasionally to large bursts of cheers! He climbs inside the ring, and sheds the jacket and cowboy hat, then whips off the glasses and stares across the ring at Crimson... and Crimson's motioning for him to bring it on! Linda Peterson enters the ring and calls for the bell, and we've got a match here!!
Crimson
vs.
"Macho Man" Randy Savage
Crimson charges at Randy Savage, swinging a massive clothesline... but Randy Savage ducks, and fires off a right hand into Crimson's face when he turns around! He hammers Crimson with several right hands, sending him staggering back with each blow until he's backed up against the ropes, then he steps back and rushes Crimson with a massive clothesline, which sends him spilling out over the top rope to the floor! Crimson is down in a heap on the floor, and Randy Savage is following him to the outside!
Crimson starts to get up, and Randy Savage grabs him by the back of the hair, then takes him head-first into the steel ringpost. That keeps him down, for the time being, and Randy Savage crouches over him, nailing him with a series of punches! Roaring with anger, Crimson throws Randy Savage off of himself, then bolts up and staggers the Macho Man with a massive punch of his own. Crimson whips Randy Savage into the guardrail, and he collides hard back-first and slumps against it... and now Crimson's measuring him! Crimson takes a running start and throws a massive boot at Randy Savage as he remains slumped on the guardrail, but Savage moves out of the way, and Crimson's big boot clears the guardrail, causing him to stumble and crotch himself on the metal railing! He's hung up on the rail... and Randy Savage runs at him, knocking him off with a clothesline!!
Crimson spills over into the stands with the fans, and they immediately gather around him, touching him and pestering him, and one of them pours beer on him. Crimson bellows loudly and shoves a few of them back, then turns to Randy Savage, but Randy Savage belts him in the midsection, then hooks him in a front chancery and lifts, bringing him crashing back to the floor at ringside with a vertical suplex!! Crimson's getting up again, and he roars homicidally and charges Randy Savage... but Savage takes him down with a drop toe hold into the ringsteps as he comes in!! Crimson's head bounces off of the steps, and as he pulls himself up, it becomes clear that he just busted himself open!!
A look of fury washes over Crimson's bleeding face as he pulls himself up to a knee, but Randy Savage is up to meet him with a series of right hands to the face that keep him from getting up to his feet. Crimson's still down on one knee, and Randy Savage grabs him by the hair and rams his face into the steel ringsteps again! Randy Savage rolls Crimson into the ring, then climbs in after him. Crimson's getting up, but Randy Savage grabs him by the hair again, and takes him headfirst into one of the turnbuckles! Crimson staggers back, and Randy Savage scoops him up, then brings him down with a bodyslam! He just slammed Crimson, and that brings the crowd to its feet, cheering loudly!!
Crimson's starting to get up again, his bloody face contorting in anger again, and Randy Savage runs into the ropes, then comes off to stagger him with a clothesline. But Crimson's not going down! Randy Savage grabs him around the waist, and brings him down on a knee in an inverted atomic drop... and that makes Crimson hunch over a little bit, but he's still not going down! Randy Savage grabs a double handful of hair and drops to his knees as Crimson straightens up, nailing him with a jawbreaker!! Crimson pops up to a straight, standing position again... then falls backwards, toppling to the mat like a tree! Randy Savage covers him and hooks a leg... and Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Crimson throws him off forcefully at two!!
Randy Savage pulls Crimson up again, and kicks him in the midsection, then puts him in a standing headscissors. He's going for a piledriver, perhaps... but Crimson blocks it! He braces himself, and flings Randy Savage HIGH into the air with a backdrop, bellowing with rage! Randy Savage crashes to the mat, and starts to get up... and Crimson turns and charges him with a massive clothesline that knocks him off of his feet! The crowd boos loudly, but Crimson just wipes some blood away from his forehead, then clobbers Randy Savage with a massive right hand! Randy Savage is rocked back, and Crimson whips him into the corner, then charges in after him, doubling him over with a huge knee to the gut!! Randy Savage begins to stagger out, but Crimson tosses him back into the corner, then begins unloading on him with a series of massive right hands!
Randy Savage slumps in the corner, and Crimson steps back then puts a boot in his throat, choking him in the corner. Linda Peterson warns him to release the choke, then begins counting... but Crimson steps back at four, giving a clean break. Randy Savage staggers out of the corner... and Crimson lifts him high above his head in a Gorilla Press!! He's holding Randy Savage up high... and he drops him down, throat-first across the top rope!! Randy Savage flops down on his back on the mat, and Crimson steps into the ropes, then comes off with a massive legdrop!! He covers Randy Savage somewhat carelessly, and Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... And Savage kicks out at two! Crimson had to know that wouldn't finish Randy Savage this early on...
Crimson just smiles, draws up his shirt to wipe more blood from the laceration on his forehead, and then goes back to the attack. He lifts Randy Savage up and hooks his waist, then brings him crashing to the mat in a gutwrench suplex!! Crimson goes down, and he starts choking him now!! Linda Peterson starts counting again... and Crimson's getting up at four. But he's pulling Randy Savage up with him! He pulls him up by the throat... this could be the Chokeslam!! But Randy Savage nails Crimson with an eye gouge! Crimson releases his grip, and Savage nails him with a kneelift, then hooks him in a front chancery, and brings him down with a vertical suplex!! Crimson's down on the mat, and Randy Savage starts climbing to the top turnbuckle, perhaps looking for the Flying Elbowdrop or a flying axhandle... but Crimson's up too, and he catches Randy Savage on the top... and he pitches him off into the ring with a massive press slam!! Randy Savage hits hard on the mat, then tries to stand up again... and Crimson rushes him and mows him down with a clothesline!
The crowd boos, and Crimson seems to be enjoying their disappointment. He pulls Randy Savage up from behind, into a full nelson, then lifts him off of his feet and shakes him a few times before driving him down to the mat with a huge full nelson slam!! Randy Savage bounces off the canvas from the impact, and Crimson pulls him up by the hair... and tosses him out of the ring? He's not going for the kill, even after a devestating move like that, which is a little odd. But now Randy Savage is getting up on the outside, and Crimson's running into the ropes... you have to be kidding... DIVING FOREARM SMASH PLANCHA BY CRIMSON!! Crimson just leapt out over the top rope to nail Randy Savage with a no-hands plancha!! The crowd cheers in grudging acknowledgement of a great move, for a man of Crimson's size!
Crimson pulls Randy Savage up, then lifts him high above his head and steps to the ringsteps... and he drops him face-first down on the ringsteps!! Randy Savage goes down on the floor, holding his face, and Crimson pulls him up, then bashes him right in the face with a massive punch that sends him right back down! He pulls Randy Savage up again, then rolls him back into the ring and climbs after him. Savage is beginning to stand again... and Crimson pulls him up, then whips him into the ropes... and nails him with a HUGE boot to the face as he comes off!! Randy Savage crumples to the mat, and Crimson raises a fist high in the air, bellowing triumphantly!
Crimson lifts Randy Savage into a standing headscissors, then pantomimes smoking a cigar and snuffing it out on Randy Savage's back before grabbing him and lifting... POWER BOMB!! Crimson just drove Randy Savage down with that huge power bomb, and now he's going for the cover, hooking a leg! This could be it, as Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THRE... Shoulder up at the last possible instant by Randy Savage!! The Macho Man is too tough to stay down even for that devestating power bomb!! Crimson's up again, and he directs a bloody grimace down at Randy Savage, then draws a thumb across his throat... and he lifts him by the throat! He's looking for the Chokeslam... KICK TO THE GROIN!! Randy Savage just kicked Crimson low, and that stops the Chokeslam attempt as Crimson doubles over! Randy Savage staggers for a second or two, shaking off the punishment he's taken, then grabs Crimson as he straightens up, and nails him with an inverted atomic drop! Crimson staggers back, bent over slightly, and Randy Savage scoops him up, bringing him down with a big bodyslam!
Crimson's down, and once again Randy Savage is going up to the top turnbuckle! He gets up as Crimson pulls himself to his feet... and the Macho Man comes off with a flying axhandle on Crimson!! Crimson collapses to the mat, but Randy Savage isn't going for the cover!! He's pulling Crimson up into a standing headscissors... and now he lifts Crimson... PILEDRIVER!! Crimson was just driven head-first into the mat, and THAT might just do it! Randy Savage goes for the cover, and Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... Kickout at two and three-quarters! Just like Randy Savage, Crimson is proving to be tough to finish off. But Randy Savage still has one ace up his sleeve... and he's going to the top turnbuckle!! The crowd's on its feet, cheering, as Randy Savage points to the sky, signalling what's to come... and he leaps off!! FLYING ELBOWDROP!! Crimson convulses on the mat like a stake was just driven through his heart, and Randy Savage hooks a massive leg! Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THRE... NO!! CRIMSON KICKED OUT!! Randy Savage stares down at him, and the crowd boos loudly... Crimson just kicked out of the Flying Elbowdrop somehow!
Randy Savage's shock turns to anger, and he pulls Crimson up by the hair, firing several punches off into his forehead, then whipping him to the ropes and running into the other side. They meet in the middle, and Randy Savage rocks Crimson with a big clothesline! Crimson's staggered, and Randy Savage hits the ropes again, then comes off to nail him with a second clothesline!! Crimson almost goes down, but somehow manages to stay on his feet!! Randy Savage runs into the ropes again, coming off for a third... CRIMSON GRABS HIS THROAT!! Crimson caught him by the throat, and he lifts... CHOKESLAM!! He just drilled Randy Savage with the Chokeslam!! The crowd's booing, and this one could be over, as Crimson puts one massive foot on Randy Savage's chest, and Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... Crimson lifts his foot!! He's not taking the pinfall!
Instead, he's climbing to the outside, and rummaging under the ring... what's he doing out there? He's got a table!! Crimson just pulled out a table, and he slides that into the ring... and now he sets it up, then pulls Savage to his feet! He sets Randy Savage on the top turnbuckle, facing the crowd, then climbs up after him... he's going for a top-rope chokeslam through that table!! He doesn't want to just beat Randy Savage now... he wants to destroy him!! But someone's coming out of the crowd... MISS ELIZABETH!! Randy Savage's ex-wife and former valet, Elizabeth, just came out of the crowd and stepped into the ring!! The crowd's on its feet, cheering wildly... and she pulls the table away!!
Crimson sees that, shoves Randy Savage down, and steps down from the top turnbuckle, then climbs into the ring, confronting Elizabeth... and she's backing away, begging him not to keep attacking the Macho Man! Crimson smiles and runs a hand through her hair, stroking her cheek... then grabs her and forces a kiss on her!! The crowd boos loudly, and Elizabeth pulls away, slapping Crimson... but he just grimaces, then draws back and nails her with a massive backhand slap that sends her sprawling to the canvas! Crimson laughs, then turns around... but Randy Savage is up behind him, and he has that old look of infinite rage and intensity in his eyes again! Crimson growls and fires off a right hand into his face... but Randy Savage doesn't even flinch!! Crimson stares down at his hand as if it's defective, then draws back and lets another punch fly... but Randy Savage blocks this one!!
Randy Savage returns fire with a series of punches of his own, then grabs Crimson from behind and lifts, taking him down with a belly-to-back suplex!! Randy Savage goes quickly to the top turnbuckle as Crimson gets up, shaking with anger... and he nails Crimson with a flying axhandle!! Crimson goes down... and Randy Savage drags him to the table!! He sets Crimson up on the table, then climbs up after him... and he pulls him into a standing headscissors!! The crowd's on its feet, and Randy Savage lifts him up... PILEDRIVER THROUGH THE TABLE!! The crowd explodes into cheers, and Randy Savage gets up, leaving Crimson lying in the wreckage of the table... and he's going to the top turnbuckle!! The crowd's on its feet, and Randy Savage points to the sky, signalling for the Flying Elbowdrop again... here it comes!! FLYING ELBOWDROP!! Crimson shudders with the impact, and Randy Savage hooks the leg!! Linda Peterson counts!! ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THREE!! RANDY SAVAGE WINS!!!

Rating: **
The crowd is on its feet, and "Pomp And Circumstance" is playing again, as Randy Savage gets to his feet! Elizabeth is up now as well, and she raises his hand in victory, to a burst of cheers from the crowd!! The cheers get even louder as they embrace in the middle of the ring!! "Macho Man" Randy Savage has just defeated Crimson in big, dramatic fashion, and this crowd is loving it!! He goes to pose on each of the top turnbuckles, pointing out at the crowd to a burst of cheers each time, then begins walking backstage with Miss Elizabeth! The crowd's chanting "MACHO MAN!!" and cheering wildly after him as he departs!! There have been rumors floating around on the inside sheets that Randy Savage was ending his VCW tenure tonight, and if that's the case, what a note to go out on!! The crowd is on its feet after that great moment! A few seconds after Randy Savage's departure, Crimson pulls himself up out of the wreckage of the table and staggers backstage as well, with the crowd booing behind him.
Now "Shame" by Rollins Band begins playing over the arena sound system, and the crowd cheers loudly as Falcon steps out of the backstage entrance, along with Lady Erica Whitmore. Tonight, he's facing David Wright Hubbard in the middle of the ring, and he gets the chance to retaliate after several sneak attacks and beatings he's faced. But David Wright Hubbard seems to have been coming mentally unhinged lately, and even face-to-face, in the ring, he'll be a very dangerous opponent. Despite that, Falcon shows no hesitation as he climbs into the ring, then steps up on one of the top turnbuckles and poses there to a loud burst of cheers from the crowd. He steps down and begins consulting with Erica in last-minute preparation for the match...
And now "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath begins playing, and that brings forth David Wright Hubbard! He storms out of the backstage area, walking with a slight limp, to an immediate roar of boos from the crowd, and begins making his way to the ring. As usual, he's wearing a large brace on his right knee, and he's focused with a malicious glare on the ring, ignoring the fans that boo and yell at him as he makes his way there. He climbs up on the ring apron and steps inside, then steps into his corner and begins stretching and warming up, waiting for the match to get underway. Bobcat McGavin's in the ring, calling for the bell, and we've got ourselves a match!
Falcon
w/Lady Erica Whitmore
vs.
David Wright Hubbard
David Wright Hubbard and Falcon step into the middle of the ring, and immediately begin trading punches! David Wright Hubbard starts to take control, but Falcon ducks a big right hand, then pelts David Wright Hubbard with three quick punches of his own, backing him into the ropes. He whips David Wright Hubbard into the ropes, then comes off the other side and brings him down in the middle of the ring with a dropkick! David Wright Hubbard gets back up and backs away from Falcon briefly... and now both men move in for a lockup. David Wright Hubbard takes control with a knee to the gut, then whips Falcon into the ropes... and when Falcon comes off, David Wright Hubbard takes him down with a dropkick of his own!! The crowd boos loudly, and David Wright Hubbard points down at Falcon and yells "HOW ABOUT THAT, BOY!?"... David Wright Hubbard's clearly trying to show Falcon up here.
Falcon gets back up and backs off before David Wright Hubbard can go after him again, and once again they come in for a lockup in the middle. David Wright Hubbard whips Falcon into the ropes again, but Falcon reverses it into wrapping around behind him with a waistlock! Falcon lifts for a German suplex, but David Wright Hubbard breaks the waistlock before he can get him up and slips around into a waistlock of his own! He brings Falcon down on his face with a waistlock takedown, then crawls across his back grabs him by the hair, and starts rubbing his face into the mat! Still sitting on Falcon's back, he slaps him across the back of the head a few times, then gets up. Falcon gets to his feet, glaring at David Wright Hubbard, and David Wright Hubbard just gives him a double middle finger! Falcon yells and charges him... but David Wright Hubbard stoops down and backdrops him over the top rope when he comes forward, sending him spilling to the floor!
Falcon's down on the outside, and David Wright Hubbard grabs the ropes and slingshots himself out onto Falcon as he gets up with a slingshot cross bodypress!! Falcon goes down, and David Wright Hubbard grimaces briefly, clutching his knee in pain, but still gets up to continue the fight. He yells a warning at Lady Erica Whitmore, then opens up on Falcon with a series of right hands and whips him to the guardrail... but Falcon leaps up on the rail, then springs back onto him with the Falconsault!! David Wright Hubbard goes down under Falcon, and the crowd explodes into cheers!! Falcon gets to his feet shortly, and pulls David Wright Hubbard up with him, then grabs him by the back of the hair and rams him head-first into the steel ringsteps! David Wright Hubbard collapses to the floor, and Falcon grabs a chair!
Bobcat McGavin warns Falcon not to hit him with the chair from the inside of the ring... and he seems to be complying, setting it up on the floor normally. David Wright Hubbard gets up again, and charges Falcon, but Falcon's ready and he takes him down with a drop-toe hold onto the chair!! David Wright Hubbard's face smashes into the seat, and that puts him down again! But Falcon pulls David Wright Hubbard up and sets him on the chair in a seated position, then runs to the opposite end of the apron and hops up on it... and he runs along the length of the apron, then leaps off to nail David Wright Hubbard with a dropkick to the face as he remains seated in the chair!! The crowd explodes into cheers, and the chair tips over with David Wright Hubbard on it, sending him spilling to the floor!
With Bobcat McGavin's count progressing into the higher numbers, Falcon pulls David Wright Hubbard up, takes him head-first into the apron, then rolls him back into the ring. David Wright Hubbard begins to get up as Falcon climbs up on the apron... and Falcon waits for him, then leaps up to the top rope and springs off with a springboard cross bodypress... but David Wright Hubbard catches him and brings him crashing to the mat with a powerslam!! David Wright Hubbard takes a moment longer to clear his head, then quickly covers Falcon and hooks his leg, as Linda Peterson counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two by Falcon! That move didn't get the job done, but it sure did change the complexion of the match in a hurry!
David Wright Hubbard pulls Falcon up, then bodyslams him to the mat and walks into the ropes, coming off to drive an elbow down on him! He gets up and hits the ropes again, and comes off with a second elbowdrop... and this time he remains kneeling at Falcon's side, putting his hands to his throat and choking him on the mat! Bobcat McGavin yells at him and orders him to break the chokehold, but it's only when he makes the count and gets near five that David Wright Hubbard breaks. He pulls Falcon up by the hair and clobbers him with a few forearm smashes to the back, then puts him in a standing headscissors!! He could be looking to end this one early... he lifts for a power bomb, but Falcon wraps his legs around his head and brings him down with a Frankensteiner!! David Wright Hubbard goes down under Falcon, and Falcon remains on top of him, pummelling him with a series of punches to the face!
David Wright Hubbard throws Falcon off and starts to get to his feet, but Falcon's up first, and he runs into the ropes, then comes off to nail David Wright Hubbard with a dropkick to the right knee, taking him down. David Wright Hubbard starts to get up again, and Falcon runs in for another dropkick to the knee... but this time, David Wright Hubbard quickly springs out of the way! Falcon pulls himself up again... but David Wright Hubbard rushes in from the side and nails him upside the head with a lariat!! Falcon goes down, and David Wright Hubbard begins repeatedly stomping at him, then puts his boot down on his throat and leans on it! Falcon kicks and struggles under his weight, and Bobcat McGavin orders David Wright Hubbard to get up, then starts counting. David Wright Hubbard lets up at four, stepping back with his hands raised innocently as Bobcat McGavin lectures him about the legality of his tactics.
David Wright Hubbard stops and flexes his right knee, trying to work some feeling back into it, then grabs Falcon as he gets up and tosses him to the outside of the ring! Rather than diving out again, David Wright Hubbard climbs out after him this time, then pulls him up by the hair and takes him head-first into the ring apron. Falcon goes down again, and now David Wright Hubbard's grabbing some camera cables! He wraps the cables around Falcon's throat and starts choking him with them, looking up to yell "LOOK AT HIM NOW, YOU STUPID BITCH!!" at Lady Erica Whitmore. Bobcat McGavin starts warning David Wright Hubbard about that again, but once again, David Wright Hubbard takes every second he can, stopping just short of the five-count!
David Wright Hubbard tosses Falcon out onto the entrance ramp, then waits for him as he gets up, running forward and nailing him with a boot to the face!! He grimaces and bends over to clutch his knee after the move, but he just knocked Falcon down hard with that boot to the face! Falcon's down, and David Wright Hubbard pulls him up from behind, then lifts him... belly-to-back suplex on the steel ramp!! David Wright Hubbard's taking Falcon apart, and he's not stopping or hesitating at all... he pulls him back up, then lifts him over his head... and drops him throat-first across the guardrail!! Falcon collapses to the floor, clutching his throat and squirming, and the crowd boos David Wright Hubbard loudly!
Falcon starts to pull himself up, but David Wright Hubbard just grabs him by the hair and takes him head-first into the apron... no, Falcon blocks it, then elbows David Wright Hubbard in the ribs! David Wright Hubbard lets go, and Falcon grabs him and bashes him head-first into the apron instead, then turns and smashes his head into the ringsteps as well! David Wright Hubbard goes down, and Falcon rolls him back into the ring! He rolls back in himself, breaking Bobcat McGavin's dangerously high count, then rolls to the outside, grabs David Wright Hubbard's legs, and pulls him groin-first into the steel ringpost! David Wright Hubbard yells out in pain, and Falcon grabs his right leg, pulls it back, then swings it hard into the steel post, drawing another anguished bellow from David Wright Hubbard, but earning a round of cheers from the crowd! Ignoring Bobcat McGavin's protests, he pulls his leg back again... and takes it into the post a second time!! Falcon's done playing nice... he's going right in for the kill here!
Falcon climbs back into the ring, then pulls David Wright Hubbard up and takes him down with a kneebreaker! David Wright Hubbard yells out in pain, and Falcon keeps a hold on his leg, stepping around for a figure-four leglock, but David Wright Hubbard uses his good leg to kick him away! Falcon stumbles away from the force of the kick, then comes in to go after David Wright Hubbard again, but David Wright Hubbard nails him with a low blow on his way back in! Falcon doubles over, and David Wright Hubbard gets to his feet... Falcon straightens up again... but David Wright Hubbard lunges forward and nails him with a lariat!! Falcon goes down in a heap, and the crowd explodes into boos!! David Wright Hubbard crawls across him for the cover, and Bobcat McGavin goes down to make the count... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two and a half by Falcon!
David Wright Hubbard rolls out of the ring... what's he doing out there? He grabs a table and sets it up a few feet away from the ring apron, then rolls back into the ring. He shoves Falcon out to the apron, then climbs up to the top turnbuckle, moving slowly on his hurt knee, but he makes it up. He perches there as Falcon gets up, and the crowd knows what's coming... Falcon turns to him... FLYING CROSS BODYPRESS!! Falcon falls backwards off the apron under David Wright Hubbard, crashing through the table, and the crowd explodes into boos!! David Wright Hubbard's been known to use that trick a time or two before, and this time the crowd's not too happy to see it connect!!
David Wright Hubbard grimaces as he stands up, with his right leg clearly hurting badly. But Falcon's down in the wreckage of the table, and David Wright Hubbard just pulls him up by the hair, then rolls him back into the ring and climbs in after him. That could have done it, despite a delay between connecting with that move and the cover that David Wright Hubbard now attempts, and here's Bobcat McGavin with the count... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... Kickout at two and three-quarters!! The delay of several seconds was costly to David Wright Hubbard... if he could have made the pin immediately after that move, it probably would have been over! Instead, he pulls Falcon up again and puts him in a standing headscissors... POWER BOMB!! That might do it too, and David Wright Hubbard goes for the cover again!! Bobcat McGavin counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THRE... Shoulder up at two and nine-tenths!! Falcon's still in the match somehow!
David Wright Hubbard glares angrily at Bobcat McGavin and makes a three-count with his own hands, as if showing Bobcat McGavin how to count. Bobcat McGavin shakes his head, holding two fingers in David Wright Hubbard's face, and David Wright Hubbard holds one middle finger in Bobcat McGavin's face in reply! David Wright Hubbard turns back to Falcon, as Bobcat McGavin gives him two middle fingers behind his back. David Wright Hubbard looks down at Falcon, then climbs out to the apron and begins going to the top turnbuckle, looking for the Flying Cross Bodypress again... but Falcon's getting up! David Wright Hubbard's moving slowly, and he might have wasted too much time arguing with Bobcat McGavin, because Falcon's up early! David Wright Hubbard gets to the top... and Falcon lashes out with a high superkick that connects right with David Wright Hubbard's injured knee! David Wright Hubbard yells in pain and falls crotch-first across the top turnbuckle... and Falcon climbs up with him! He hooks him in a front chancery on top... SUPERPLEX!! David Wright Hubbard and Falcon go crashing to the mat, and now they're both down!!
Bobcat McGavin begins laying down the count, and both men stay down for a while... but David Wright Hubbard starts getting up at eight. He's pulling himself up slowly, barely able to stand on his right knee... and Falcon's up as well! David Wright Hubbard grimaces and charges Falcon with a lariat, but Falcon ducks under his arm and runs past, then leaps onto the middle rope and springs backwards as David Wright Hubbard turns around... FALCONSAULT!! He just nailed him with it, and David Wright Hubbard tries to catch him, but his right leg crumples underneath him like a broken toothpick!! Falcon stays on top for the cover, and Bobcat McGavin counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two and a half!!
Falcon gets up and pulls David Wright Hubbard up from behind, then slips to the side and takes him down with a Russian legsweep! David Wright Hubbard starts to get up again, and Falcon stuns him with an inverted atomic drop, then runs into the ropes and comes off with a cross bodypress, taking David Wright Hubbard down in the middle of the ring! Falcon hooks a leg for the cover, and Bobcat McGavin counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two and a half again! Without hesitation, Falcon picks David Wright Hubbard up and hooks his arms, then takes him down with a double underhook suplex! David Wright Hubbard ends up flat on his back, and Falcon steps out to the apron, then climbs up to the top turnbuckle and leaps... FLYING ELBOWDROP!! That could do it!! Falcon hooks the leg, and Bobcat McGavin counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... David Wright Hubbard kicks out at two and three-quarters!
Falcon steps back, measuring David Wright Hubbard for the superkick, and the crowd rises to its feet!! David Wright Hubbard gets up, a little groggy... and Falcon comes at him with the superkick, but David Wright Hubbard ducks and slips to the side! Falcon staggers to regain his balance, and David Wright Hubbard rushes him with a lariat, but Falcon ducks, and David Wright Hubbard mows down Bobcat McGavin!! Without so much as a glance down at the fallen referee, David Wright Hubbard turns around with a blind swing for Falcon, but Falcon blocks, then nails him with a swift kick to the kneecap!! David Wright Hubbard doubles over, and Falcon hooks him in a front chancery... FALCON ARROW!! He just nailed it!!
The crowd explodes, and Falcon immediately gets up, grabs David Wright Hubbard's kneebrace, and throws it off into the stands! He grabs David Wright Hubbard's leg and applies a kneebar!! David Wright Hubbard struggles... and he starts tapping out! Falcon should have this match won now... but Bobcat McGavin's still down! Falcon notices that Bobcat McGavin's still down... but then he looks at David Wright Hubbard with an angry glare, and keeps cranking back on the kneebar!! Falcon knows he's not winning the match with this hold while Bobcat McGavin's down, but this is the man who attacked him from behind with a pipe wrench, who attacked Lady Erica Whitmore for coming to his defense, and he's not going to release the hold!! He's going to let David Wright Hubbard suffer, and do more damage to his knee!!
David Wright Hubbard continues uselessly tapping out, then notices that Bobcat McGavin's down, and turns to Falcon, begging for mercy!! He folds his hands as if praying as he begs Falcon to let him go, but Falcon's not listening!! Tears start streaming down David Wright Hubbard's face, as he yells "PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LET ME GO!!" and thrashes around pitifully... and now someone's coming out of the backstage entrance! MICHELLE HUBBARD!! Michelle Hubbard sprints to the ring and slides inside... and now she's begging Falcon to let him go as well! Evidently, she's making some progress... and finally, at Michelle's assistance, Falcon releases the kneebar. Bobcat McGavin's still down, and David Wright Hubbard's rolling on the mat, clutching at his knee, as Michelle Hubbard kneels at his side.
David Wright Hubbard finally sits up, and now he's asking Michelle to help him up! Does he actually intend to get up and keep fighting!? Falcon goes into a fighting stance, and yells a warning to him... but David Wright Hubbard gives him the finger, and pulls himself up with Michelle's help! David Wright Hubbard motions for Falcon to bring it on, though he can barely stand... and Falcon lashes out at him with another superkick... but DAVID PULLS MICHELLE IN THE WAY!! Michelle Hubbard takes the superkick!! She goes down in a heap on the mat, and Falcon just stares down at her in horror, scarcely believing what just happened... and David Wright Hubbard drops down and nails him with a low blow!! Falcon doubles over, and David Wright Hubbard gets up and lunges... LARIAT!! He nearly decapitated Falcon with that one!! He throws an arm over Falcon's body... and Bobcat McGavin's finally getting up!! NO!! David Wright Hubbard can't win like this!! But Bobcat McGavin counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THREE!! DAMN IT!! David Wright Hubbard just won this match!!
David
Wright Hubbard pinned Falcon after a lariat in 0:23:28.
Rating: *** 1/2
The crowd boos loudly at the announcement of David Wright Hubbard's victory. He gave all of himself, without a doubt... he can't even stand again after throwing himself forward with that lariat... but to use such low tactics, culminating in using his wife as a human shield seconds after she persuaded Falcon to show him some mercy... how low can a man sink!? The trainers are in the ring, and they've got some work ahead of them... Falcon's down and unconscious, Michelle Hubbard's still in a heap on the mat, and David Wright Hubbard's clutching his knee in pain. The trainers start to kneel at Michelle's side... and David Wright Hubbard yells "GET OVER HERE!! CAN'T YOU SEE I'M A HURT MAN!?" at them! They leave Michelle's side to tend to David Wright Hubbard, and they help him to leave the ring and hobble backstage. And now more of them are in, helping Falcon and Michelle to get up.
Michelle Hubbard begins stumbling backstage, and Falcon glares after David Wright Hubbard as he gets up, still groggy and in a lot of pain. One of the trainers asks him if he needs any help, but Falcon waves him off, then slips to the outside, where Lady Erica Whitmore is there to give him a sympathetic hug, then help him backstage. Falcon had this match won, and had David Wright Hubbard's career and future well-being in his hands, until Michelle Hubbard talked him into releasing the kneebar... and to think how David Wright Hubbard repaid that mercy is just sickening.
We're going straight ahead to the first of our two main-event matches now. They're lowering a steel cage to the ring, and David Page climbs inside, raising his microphone for one of those special main event ring introductions.
D. Page: Ladies and gentlemen, Violent Championship Wrestling is proud to bring to you the first of our two main events of the evening! The following contest is a STEEL CAGE MATCH, and it is set for one fall, with no disqualifications, no time limits, and no countouts. There must be a winner via pinfall or submission in this match... by the rules, no other outcome is possible! Your referee for this match is Jerry Rogers!!
Jerry Rogers opens the cage door and steps inside, preparing to do his duty for this match. The crowd doesn't respond much to him, but they explode into cheers when "Last Beat Of Your Heart" by Mission UK begins playing over the arena sound system, and Sandis Arlington comes out of the backstage entrance. He stares at the cage, his face betraying no hint of apprehension or fear, then begins calmly walking to the ring.
D. Page: Introducing first, from Atlanta, Georgia... standing six feet two inches tall, and weighs two hundred and twenty pounds, he is the man who seeks tonight to conclusively prove that he is a superior wrestler to Troy Black... ladies and gentlemen, SANNNDISSSSSSS ARRRRLINNNNGTONNNNN!!!
Sandis Arlington comes to the ring and steps in through the cage door, then calmly remains inside, warming up and preparing for what he surely knows will be one of the toughest matches of his career. The crowd's cheering loudly and lighting up with camera flashes, but Sandis doesn't even seem to notice them in his single-minded anticipation of the match.
D. Page: And his opponent...
Dim silver-blue lights replace the regular arena lighting, and "Favorite Things" by Incubus kicks on over the sound system, prompting a loud chorus of boos from the crowd. Troy Black steps out of the backstage entrance, accompanied by Rebecca Black... we've received word that Amy Lin left the arena early, declaring herself emotionally unfit to continue with the show after the earlier proceedings of tonight. So Troy is just accompanied by Rebecca Black this evening... and he doesn't seem to even acknowledge Amy's absence as he stares down the aisle towards the cage.
D. Page: Hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, accompanied to the ring by Rebecca Black, he stands five feet ten inches tall and weighs one hundred and ninety-five pounds. He is a former VCW World Champion, the leader of the dreaded Black Plague, the self-proclaimed greatest wrestler in VCW... TRRRRROOYYYYYYY BLLLLAAAAAAAACK!!
Troy Black makes his way to the ring slowly, staring at Sandis Arlington the whole time. He stops briefly at the cage door as Rebecca Black rubs his shoulders and neck while whispering briefly in his ear, then climbs inside and steps in through the door. Jerry Rogers locks the door and calls for the bell, and we're beginning the first of two main events NOW!!
No Countout, No Time
Limit, No Disqualification:
Steel Cage Match:
Troy Black
w/Rebecca Black
vs.
Sandis Arlington
Troy Black moves in and locks up with Sandis Arlington in the middle of the ring. Troy Black gets an armwringer out of the lockup, but Sandis drops and flips out of it, reversing to whip Troy Black into the ropes! Troy Black hits the ropes... and he hangs on, not coming off to meet Sandis in the middle. Instead, he steps forward again, and this time he pivots and nails Sandis Arlington with a spin kick to the face! Sandis Arlington goes down, but immediately gets back up, and Troy Black nails him with a kick to the midsection, doubling him over! Troy Black grabs the back of his hair, and tries to take him head-first into the steel mesh of the cage, but Sandis Arlington blocks it, nails Troy Black with an elbow, and takes him face-first into the cage instead! Troy Black staggers back, and Sandis Arlington rushes forward and hits him with a dropkick!
Troy Black's down, and Sandis Arlington runs into the ropes as he gets up, coming off to nail him with a swinging neckbreaker! Troy Black starts getting up again, and Sandis Arlington gives him a knee to the midsection, then whips him into the corner and follows him in with a jumping avalanche... no, Troy Black gets a foot up and kicks him in the head! Sandis Arlington staggers back, and Troy boosts himself up to the second turnbuckle, then leaps off with a flying clothesline that knocks Sandis Arlington down!! Troy Black goes down for a cover... no, for a chokehold, and it's perfectly legal in this match, because there are no disqualifications!! Sandis Arlington struggles and thrashes around in the chokehold, finally reaching up to catch Troy Black with an eye gouge, which is also perfectly legal in this match!
Troy Black releases the chokehold to clutch at his eyes, and Sandis Arlington gets to his feet, then grabs Troy Black and puts on a headlock. Troy Black lifts him for a belly-to-back suplex, but Sandis Arlington kicks off of the side of the cage and flips out behind him, hooking him for a German suplex!! But Troy Black reaches out and grabs the ropes, preventing Sandis from lifting him for the suplex... so Sandis drops to his knees behind Troy Black, nails him with a low blow from behind, and then pops up and takes him down in the middle of the ring with the German suplex!! He holds the bridge, and Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two by Troy Black! It'll take a lot more than that to keep him down!
Sandis Arlington gets up and hooks Troy Black in a front chancery, then lifts him up... and he brings him crashing down to the mat with a vertical suplex! Troy Black is down, and Sandis Arlington perches up on the second turnbuckle, then leaps off with a legdrop, but Troy Black rolls out of the way! They both start to get up, and Sandis Arlington goes for a savate kick, but Troy Black ducks it, then turns and nails Sandis with a vicious throat jab out of nowhere!! Sandis hits the mat like he was just shot, and Troy Black goes for the cover, as Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two and a half by Sandis Arlington!!
Sandis Arlington's still down, clutching his throat... and Troy Black's demanding the key to the cage door from Jerry Rogers! Jerry Rogers hesitates, and Troy Black reaches into his pocket and grabs the key! But he's not going for the cage door! What's he going to do? He clenches the key so that the tip of it is sticking out between his knuckles on his right hand... and he crouches over Sandis Arlington, punching him repeatedly with the key like that!! Sandis Arlington is quickly busted open, and the crowd boos... but with no disqualifications, this is a perfectly acceptable tactic! But now Troy Black's getting up, and unlocking the door... and he's leaving the cage!? No, he's reaching under the ring... and he pulls out the chair wrapped in barbed wire, which Chris Champlain used earlier! He tosses the chair into the ring, then hands the key to the cage door to Rebecca Black, who stuffs it down her pants, and climbs back inside, shutting and locking the door behind him.
Sandis Arlington's starting to get up, and Troy Black raises the barbed-wire covered chair, raising it over his head to nail him... but Sandis hits Troy Black with a fist to the midsection, doubling him over and stopping the swing! He straightens up and kicks Troy Black in the midsection, doubling him over and causing him to drop the chair, then goes for a Rocker Dropper on the chair, but Troy Black flips him over... but Sandis lands on his feet!! Troy Black swings at Sandis with a clothesline, but Sandis ducks under and grabs his arm, coming up behind Troy to hook his other arm for a full nelson... FULL NELSON FACESLAM ON THE CHAIR!! Troy Black just got his face driven into a chair wrapped in barbed wire with no protection or bracing at all! Rebecca Black screams in horror, and the crowd begins a chant of "HOLY SHIT!" for him!!
Troy Black is also busted open now, it goes without saying, and fortunately he doesn't seem to have any serious injury apart from a bunch of scratches on his face. Sandis Arlington grabs him by the hair and pulls him up, then takes him to the side of the cage... and he's grinding Troy Black's face against the cage! More blood is spilled as Troy Black's wounds are aggravated by this rough treatment, and now Sandis pulls him around and hooks on a front chancery... SNAP SUPLEX ON THE CHAIR!! Sandis Arlington is showing Troy Black no mercy, and the crowd cheers as Troy Black arches up, his face covered in blood and twisted with pain! Sandis Arlington floats over and shoves Troy Black back down for the cover, and Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Kickout at two by Troy Black!!
Troy Black rolls over off of the chair and begins pulling himself up... but Sandis Arlington has the chair! He raises it up to take a swing at Troy Black, but Troy Black rushes forward, tackling Sandis Arlington to the mat and causing him to drop the chair! He unloads a series of punches on Sandis Arlington, then gets up and goes to the door, asking Rebecca Black to open it! He wants out again, and this time he may be more interested in leaving the ring! Rebecca Black reaches into her pants and grabs the key, then starts fumbling in the lock with it... but she's taking too much time, and Troy Black turns away in exasperation, then starts climbing the cage! Sandis Arlington is up now, but too late to stop Troy Black as he reaches the top of the cage, then begins climbing down it! He's climbing down the other side of the cage... but Sandis Arlington rushes forward and dropkicks the side of the cage, knocking Troy Black off back-first into the guardrail!! The crowd cheers, and Troy Black winces in pain, collapsing to the floor!!
Sandis Arlington's on the way to the top of the cage himself now... but as he goes up, Troy Black's getting to his feet! Troy Black gets up as Sandis reaches the top, and Sandis looks down... no, you have to be kidding... SHOOTING STAR PLANCHA!! GOOD LORD!! Sandis Arlington jumped fifteen or sixteen feet down onto Troy Black, connecting with that shooting star plancha, and now they're both down and out on the floor!! There's no countout, but they may have to stop this match on account of injury after that move!! The crowd's mixed in a chant of "HOLY SHIT!" and "VCW!" ... what a move that was!!
Finally, Sandis Arlington's getting up. He pulls Troy Black up as well, then takes him head-first into the side of the cage! Troy Black staggers away, and Sandis Arlington grabs the ring bell, then swings it at Troy Black... but Troy ducks! Sandis turns around... throat jab!! Troy Black just drilled Sandis with another hard throat jab, sending him down to the floor, dropping the ring bell to clutch at his throat!! Now Troy Black picks up the ring bell, and measures Sandis Arlington as he gets up... and he drills him right across the face with it!! Sandis Arlington goes down, and the ring bell is spattered with his blood!! Troy Black grabs the ringsteps now, and he's bringing them over... and he takes Sandis head-first into those as well!
Sandis Arlington goes limp, and Troy Black leans him on his chest against the guardrail, then sets up the ringsteps and steps back, and takes a running start as Sandis starts to pull himself up... and Troy Black runs up the steps, does a somersault leap off the top of them, clearing the guardrail and catching Sandis Arlington with a Diamond Dust variation of the Ace Crusher, pulling him throat-first down on the guardrail!! The crowd can't help but pop for that impressive spot, and Sandis Arlington thrashes around on the floor, clutching his throat, as Troy Black gets up in the crowd!! Troy Black pulls Sandis Arlington up and forces him to lie with his throat across the guardrail again, then leaps up on the guardrail and jumps off with a legdrop to the back of Sandis's head, forcing his throat down on the guardrail again!! Sandis falls back again, clutching his throat and gasping for breath... Troy Black's trying to crush his windpipe!!
Troy Black climbs back over the guardrail, then grabs a chair, and he brings the chair down on Sandis's throat!! Sandis begins kicking and thrashing, and Troy Black's just standing over him, forcing the chair down on his throat... but Sandis gets a foot up between his legs!! Sandis Arlington just kicked Troy Black in the crotch, and he drops the chair and doubles over. Sandis Arlington gets up, still gasping and struggling to breathe, and draws back the chair... and he nails Troy Black in the head with it! Troy Black goes down, and Sandis drops to his knees also... this match has already taken a heavy toll on both men! But Sandis Arlington gets up, and raises the chair, now smeared with blood from Troy Black's face... and he nails Troy Black in the head with it again as he attempts to stand!
Troy Black's down, and Sandis Arlington drops the chair, then pulls Troy Black up into a standing headscissors. He lifts him... PILEDRIVER ON THE CHAIR!! Rebecca Black screams again, though she's keeping a healthy distance from Sandis Arlington, and the crowd cheers... but Sandis Arlington can't go for the cover outside, so even if he did finish Troy Black off with that move, he can't capitalize on it! He pulls Troy Black up again, lifting him perhaps for a belly-to-back suplex on the chair... no, he brings him down groin-first across the guardrail!! Troy Black's face contorts into a bloody mask of anguish, and Sandis Arlington leaps up on the timekeeper's table, then leaps off to nail Troy Black with a spinning leg lariat that sends them both spilling into the crowd!!
They're both down briefly, Sandis once again gasping for breath, but Sandis is up first, and he begins nailing Troy Black with a series of punches. He knees Troy Black in the midsection, then climbs back over the guardrail and hooks him in a front chancery, going to suplex him back into the ring area... but Troy Black breaks the chancery with a few shots to the ribs, then grabs Sandis by the hair and pulls him down throat-first onto the guardrail again!! The crowd boos, and once again Sandis collapses to a heap, gasping for air! Troy Black gets up, and waits on Sandis to pull himself to his feet... then he leaps up onto the guardrail, and springs off to nail Sandis Arlington with a flying clothesline, taking him down again!!
Troy Black goes down and starts choking Sandis Arlington again, then gets up and grabs the chair once again. He waits on Sandis Arlington to get up, then swings the chair at him... but Sandis Arlington ducks, then turns around with a superkick that knocks the chair back into Troy Black's face!! Troy Black goes down again, dropping the chair, which now has an even larger spot of blood on it! The crowd explodes into cheers... but Sandis collapses to his knees, unable to capitalize immediately. He's taking deep breaths again... and now he's back to his feet! He takes Troy Black head-first into the side of the cage, then advances on Rebecca Black, demanding the key to the cage. Rebecca Black just gives him the middle finger... and Sandis drills her with a right hand that knocks her off of her feet, then reaches down her pants as she kicks and struggles, and he pulls out the key!! He looks down at his hand with disgust, then wipes it on the side of his pants... but as he turns around with the key, Troy Black's waiting on him, nailing him in the head with the chair!!
Sandis Arlington goes down and drops the key, and Troy Black immediately grabs it, then uses it to unlock the door. He opens the cage door, then steps around to the other side of it, waiting for Sandis Arlington to get up. Sandis pulls himself to his feet... and Troy dropkicks the door into his face!! Sandis Arlington goes down in a heap, and Troy Black grabs him, then rolls him back into the ring. He climbs inside after him, pocketing the key and locking the door after them. Sandis Arlington starts to pull himself up, but Troy gets up and launches a spin kick at him... but Sandis ducks! He grabs Troy Black from behind, and takes him down with a belly-to-back suplex in the ring!! Both men are down, but Sandis may have just bought himself a much-needed reprieve there!
Both of the two men get up, and Sandis Arlington strikes first, nailing Troy Black with a series of punches that back him into the ropes. He whips Troy Black into the ropes, then runs off the other side with a clothesline... but Troy Black ducks under the clothesline, and both men run off the opposite sides... and Troy Black cuts Sandis Arlington down with a jumping clothesline on the second pass!! The crowd boos, and Troy Black gets back to his feet, then measures Sandis Arlington as he gets up... kick to the midsection!! Sandis Arlington doubles over... DOUBLE ARM DDT!! This could be the end... we know what comes next!! A bloody blotch is left on the mat where Sandis's head hit, and he's laid out!
Troy Black goes up to the top turnbuckle, then turns to face Sandis... but he looks down and frowns, then starts climbing up the cage! He's going for a Black Dagger from the top of the cage! He starts climbing up... but Sandis is up behind him now, and he's climbing up after him! Troy Black gets to the top, then turns around... and Sandis Arlington grabs one of his legs and pulls, causing him to fall crotch-first across the top of the cage!! Troy Black was just crotched on top of the cage, and Sandis Arlington climbs up with him, then hooks on a front facelock... DDT FROM THE TOP OF THE CAGE!! Troy Black lands in a faceplant, bounces off the mat, and flops down in a motionless heap, but Sandis Arlington is down as well, having taken some of that landing himself! Both men are down... and Sandis Arlington throws an arm across Troy Black! Jerry Rogers makes the count... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... Shoulder up at two and three-quarters!!
Sandis Arlington hauls Troy Black up from behind, then hooks him and slaps on a cobra clutch!! Troy Black's struggling, trying to escape the hold... the last thing he wants is to pass out in this match, after so much was made of Sandis Arlington passing out in their previous meeting! He's thrashing around, trying to get to the ropes, but Sandis Arlington is determined to hold him in the center of the ring, not letting him go anywhere... and finally he pulls him to the mat! Troy Black struggles around, but finally slumps into a sitting position, with his motions becoming slower and weaker. Sandis Arlington kneels down by him, keeping the pressure applied, and Jerry Rogers checks Troy Black's free arm. He lifts it once... and it falls. He lifts it a second time... and once again, it falls. He lifts it again... and this time, it stays up!!
The crowd boos, but in spite of them Troy Black begins fighting his way back to his feet, struggling against the cobra clutch! He lurches over to the corner and kicks off of the turnbuckles, coming down onto Sandis Arlington in a pinning situation! Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... Sandis Arlington rolls over and applies a bodyscissors!! Now Troy Black is trapped in a bodyscissors cobra clutch, and unlike when he was in the bodyscissors sleeperhold in their previous match, he can't reach down with his arms and break the bodyscissors this time; the cobra clutch only leaves him with one free arm!! Troy Black quickly lurches and scrambles to the ropes, wrapping his legs around the bottom rope... but that won't do him a bit of good, since Jerry Rogers can't disqualify Sandis Arlington for refusal to break the cobra clutch in this match!!
Troy Black changes tactics, and rolls Sandis Arlington onto his back, getting a count from Jerry Rogers... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... And Sandis rolls back to his side at two and a half!! That's not going to work this time either! Troy Black's starting to get weaker... blood loss, and the loss of oxygen to his brain have to be draining his consciousness rapidly now. Troy Black's squirming and struggling around the ring, but Sandis Arlington refuses to release the hold! But there seems to be a method to Troy Black's struggles... he just dragged himself closer to the barbed wire chair, though both he and Sandis Arlington have their back to it! He rolls Sandis Arlington onto his back again... onto the barbed wire chair!! Sandis Arlington cries out in pain and surprise, and releases Troy Black, who lurches forward and flops into a motionless heap in the middle of the ring!
Sandis Arlington gets up before Troy Black still, more surprised than hurt by his encounter with the barbed wire chair... and he picks the chair up! Troy Black starts to get up... SANDIS NAILS HIM WITH THE CHAIR!! Troy Black goes down to a shot from the barbed wire chair, and Sandis Arlington pulls him up, then slips to his side... RUSSIAN LEGSWEEP ON THE CHAIR!! Troy Black cries out in pain, but now Sandis Arlington's going up to the top turnbuckle! No, he's not stopping there... he's going all the way to the top of the steel cage! He perches on top, as the crowd comes to its feet... MOVING SHADOW FROM THE TOP OF THE CAGE!! But Troy Black moves, leaving the barbed wire chair behind in his wake, and Sandis Arlington connects with the Moving Shadow on the chair!! He bellows in pain and thrashes around, finally coming to a stop, lying motionless on the mat. Neither man is moving... BUT TROY BLACK SITS UP!!
The crowd boos as Troy Black gets to his feet. Sandis Arlington also starts to get up, but Troy strikes forward... THROAT JAB!! Sandis Arlington goes down, and Troy Black covers him. Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THR... Kickout at two and three-quarters!! Troy Black pulls him up, holding him over the barbed wire chair... he goes for a double arm DDT, but Sandis Arlington backdrops him!! Troy Black lands on his back on the barbed wire chair, and the crowd explodes into cheers!! He starts to pull himself up, but Sandis Arlington grabs him from behind... no, Troy Black nails him with an elbowsmash! Sandis Arlington staggers back, and Troy Black grabs him and takes him head-first into the cage!
Sandis goes down, and Troy starts climbing up the cage... but Sandis gets up behind him! As Troy Black climbs up, Sandis Arlington reaches up and grabs him by the back of his pants... not this again! Sandis Arlington pulls down, and Troy Black's pants come down in the back as he falls off of the side of the cage to the floor! He begins trying to scramble away, as Sandis Arlington continues to hold the back of his pants... he's going to emulate Amy Lin, and escape at the expense of his clothes!! But fortunately for the heterosexual male portion of the audience, Sandis Arlington releases his grasp. Troy Black gets up and pulls up his pants, then turns around, but Sandis launches a superkick... no, Troy Black ducks!! Sandis staggers off-balance, and turns back around to Troy Black... kick to the midsection!! Troy Black pulls him over to the barbed wire chair... DOUBLE ARM DDT ON THE CHAIR!! He hit it this time!!
Sandis Arlington's down... but Troy Black's not getting up in a hurry either. He's lost a lot of blood and been through hell and back, and he's not moving so quickly. But he still gets up... and now he's going up to the top turnbuckle... and passing it up, going up to the top of the cage! He wants a Black Dagger from the top of the cage to finish Sandis off!! But Sandis is up behind him, climbing up with him! Troy Black reaches the top... and Sandis Arlington nails him with a few punches, forcing him to pause and try to keep his balance, then climbs up with him! Sandis Arlington hooks him in a front chancery, and grabs his leg... he almost won last time with a super fisherman buster, and he's looking to recreate that here! But Troy Black nails him with a few shots to the ribs and struggles free, then pulls back... THROAT JAB!! Troy Black just caught Sandis with another throat jab, and Sandis falls backwards off of the top of the cage, crashing to a heap on the mat! Troy Black straightens up and leaps... BLACK DAGGER FROM THE TOP OF THE CAGE!! Sandis convulses like he was just beheaded, and Troy Black throws an arm over his chest, as Jerry Rogers counts... ONE!! ... TWO!! ... THREE!! TROY BLACK HAS DEFEATED SANDIS ARLINGTON!!

Rating: **** 1/4
The crowd explodes into boos as Troy Black rises up to his knees, raising his hands in victory as an anguished look of triumph crosses his bloody face. Troy Black has won this match, and he has survived it... but what about Sandis Arlington? He's down on the mat, not moving, as Troy Black gets up... and Rebecca Black enters the ring, carrying a microphone, as Troy Black calls for it! What's he going to say about this!?
T. Black: Let this be a lesson to ANYBODY who dares to tell me that I'm not the best wrestler in MY wrestling company... it doesn't matter how good YOU think you are, or how loudly your fans cheer or how many T-shirts you sell... this is MY wrestling company, and you WILL lay down for Troy Black. And if you don't believe me, just step right up... make a martyr of yourself, just like Falcon, just like Gabriel... just like Sandis Arlington. Because the only place you'll see Sandis again is on the latest volume of a Troy Black's Greatest Matches tape, or in a retirement home for crippled has-beens.
Troy Black throws down the microphone and lifts Sandis Arlington up... what the hell is he going to do now!? He pulls him upside down... no, he's setting him up for the Destiny Driver!! The crowd boos, and Rebecca Black stands back, smiling... DESTINY DRIVER!! Troy Black just drilled Sandis Arlington into the mat with the Destiny Driver, the move that nearly broke his own neck, the move that has injured countless wrestling superstars, and the crowd's booing loudly!! Troy Black pulls off his shirt and wipes the blood from his face with it, then steps out of the cage and begins leaving with Rebecca Black, with the crowd's boos continuing to echo after him.
The cage lifts now, and some medics come out with a stretcher for Sandis Arlington. Even if his throat hadn't been crushed by that Black Dagger from the top of the cage, he could now also have a broken neck from the Destony Driver. They're taking no chances... they're putting him in a neckbrace and on a stretcher, and putting an oxygen mask to his mouth as they rush him backstage. Troy Black's words seem to ring true... so far, everybody who's stood up to him has eventually left on a stretcher. When will it change? Who can finally defeat Troy Black!?
We still have one more match ahead of us, and that's the main event. David Page is back in the ring with the microphone, as the crowd begins to die down from the spectacle that we just witnessed, and some ring crew members are pushing a huge grey casket into position near the announcers' table. This casket had to be made in an unusually large size to accomodate the massive bodies of Tony Garcia and the Grave Digger, should they be forced inside.
D. Page: Ladies and gentlemen, now it is time for us to bring to you the second of our two main events of the evening! The following contest is set for one fall. It is a CASKET MATCH, and it is for the VCW World Title! The only way to win this match is by stuffing your opponent inside of a casket and shutting the lid on him. The wrestler who can do that to his opponent will be the VCW World Champion at the end of the match. Your referee for this match is Brendan Powers!!
Brendan Powers enters the ring, preparing to officiate this match, and "I, Zombie (Europe In The Raw Mix)" by White Zombie begins playing. The crowd explodes into a huge round of boos as Tony Garcia steps out of the backstage entrance, accompanied by Rebecca Black, carrying his wooden axe handle. He looks quite irritable and menacing as he steps out, as if he was having a bad day to begin with and now looks forward to taking his frustrations out in this match.
D. Page: Introducing first, the challenger in tonight's match. He comes from Phoenix, Arizona via Madrid, Spain, and he is accompanied to the ring by Rebecca Black. Standing six feet four inches tall and weighing three hundred and thirty-one pounds, he is a living legend, the winner of the TNM Elite Lethal Lottery Cup, and a former VCW World Champion... TOOOOONNNNYYYYYYY GARRRRRRRCIIIIIIIAAAAA!!!
Tony Garcia walks to the ring and climbs inside, then raises the wooden axe handle high above his head while bellowing loudly, earning a chorus of boos from the crowd. He sneers at them with contempt, then begins pacing in the ring, quite clearly anticipating his confrontation with the Grave Digger.
D. Page: And his opponent...
"Wait And Bleed" by Slipknot begins playing over the arena sound system, and the crowd explodes into cheers as the massive Grave Digger steps out of the backstage entrance, wearing the VCW World Title around his waist. He stares down the ring at Tony Garcia with a cold stare, but behind that he seems eager to get into the ring and destroy a member of the Black Plague.
D. Page: He is from Death Valley, California... he stands at a gargantuan height of seven feet two inches tall, and weighs three hundred and eighty pounds! He is undefeated in VCW at this time... he is a former SMCW Triple Crown World Champion, and the reigning VCW CHAMPION of the WOOOOORRRRRRLLLD... THE GRRAAAAAAAVVVVE DIIIGGERRRRRRRR!!!
The Grave Digger walks to the ring, then climbs up on the apron and removes the VCW World Title, handing it to the timekeeper. He steps over the top rope... and Tony Garcia rushes him, nailing him square in the right shoulder with a blow from the wooden axe handle!! Brendan Powers quickly calls for the bell, and this match is on!!
Casket Match:
For the VCW World Title:
Tony Garcia
w/Rebecca Black
vs.
The Grave Digger (c)
The Grave Digger staggers forward, clutching his shoulder in pain... and Tony Garcia unloads another massive shot with the axe handle, this time to his abdomen! The Grave Digger doubles over... and Tony Garcia clubs him across the back of the head with the wooden axe handle, taking him down! The Grave Digger's face down on the canvas, and Tony Garcia just starts bashing him in the right shoulder with the axe handle!! Tony Garcia's beating the hell out of the Grave Digger's right shoulder with that wooden axe handle, and unfortunately it's a perfectly legal tactic in a Casket Match, which can only end when a body is placed in a casket! It's probably a very effective tactic, too... while Tony Garcia won't be winning this match by submission, he may take away the Grave Digger's ability to execute many of his signature moves, including the chokeslam and the Burial, by crippling one of his arms!
The Grave Digger starts to get up, clutching his right shoulder in pain... and Tony Garcia draws back, swinging right for his head to send him down again! But the Grave Digger ducks, then grabs the wooden axe handle away from Tony Garcia... AND BREAKS IT IN HALF!! The Grave Digger just snapped the wooden axe handle into two pieces like it was a flimsy yardstick, and Tony Garcia's staring at him in horror! He draws back and nails the Grave Digger with a massive right hand... but the Grave Digger doesn't even flinch! He returns fire, rocking Tony Garcia back with a couple of punches of his own, then whips him into the ropes, and nails him with a massive Yakuza kick when he comes off!! Tony Garcia goes down hard, and the crowd explodes into a huge burst of cheers!!
The Grave Digger pulls Tony Garcia up by the hair, then whips him into the corner. Tony Garcia hits the turnbuckles back-first, and the Grave Digger comes in to nail him with a kneelift!! Tony Garcia doubles over in the corner, and the Grave Digger begins beating him into a pulp, alternating with left and right hand blows, but grimacing with each use of the right. Tony Garcia staggers out... and the Grave Digger brings him crashing to the mat with a huge powerslam!! The crowd explodes into cheers, and the Grave Digger backs up, then charges forward for a legdrop... but Tony Garcia moves out of the way!! The Grave Digger crashes down onto the mat, and Tony Garcia gets up, then starts pelting him with stiff right hands! The Grave Digger's absorbing them and getting back up... but Tony Garcia kicks him low, and that doubles the Grave Digger over! Tony Garcia runs into the ropes... and takes the Grave Digger off of his feet with a massive clothesline when he comes off!!
The crowd boos, but Tony Garcia smiles... it seems that now he's comfortable in this match and ready to start doing some damage. The Grave Digger is getting up again, but Tony Garcia rushes him and takes him off his feet with a double leg takedown, then crawls on top of him and starts hammering him with more punches! Typically, all an opponent can do in a situation like this is cover up and wait for the referee to stop the closed fists... but the closed fists are perfectly legal in this match! But the Grave Digger's not covering up, either... he throws Tony Garcia off, then gets back to his feet! But Tony Garcia's up too, and he grabs the Grave Digger's right arm in an armwringer, then starts nailing him with repeated elbows to the shoulder! But rather than performing some sort of wrestling counter, the Grave Digger just turns around and grabs his right wrist with his left hand, then pulls it away with Tony Garcia's grasp!
Tony Garcia nails the Grave Digger with a few hard punches to the face, then whips him into the ropes... no, the Grave Digger reverses it! Tony Garcia comes in off of the ropes, and the Grave Digger throws a left-armed clothesline... but Tony Garcia ducks the somewhat awkward move, then comes off the other side and tackles the Grave Digger to the mat! Once again, Tony Garcia climbs on top of him and starts hammering down with the closed fists, and once again the Grave Digger throws him off and starts getting back to his feet! But Tony Garcia grabs the Grave Digger, and braces him to lift... and he does!! Tony Garcia has the Grave Digger up... SHOULDERBREAKER!! What an impressive display of power that was!! The Grave Digger is nearly four hundred pounds, and Tony Garcia just nailed him with a shoulderbreaker!!
The Grave Digger's down, and Tony Garcia grabs his arm and falls back... CROSS ARMBREAKER!! He has it on in the middle of the ring, but it can't end the match!! Brendan Powers is just staying back, and the Grave Digger is trapped in the cross armbreaker... he can't get a rope break, so he'll have to find some other way out of this! He's struggling, trying to get up... and he manages to roll over and grab his right arm with his left! He pulls up, amazingly somehow lifting Tony Garcia off of the mat... then brings him crashing back down, breaking the cross armbreaker! The crowd cheers, and the Grave Digger rolls out of the ring, clutching at his right arm... that counter took a lot out of him! And now Tony Garcia's rolling out of the ring to go after him!
Tony Garcia grabs a chair, and comes from behind the Grave Digger, nailing him with a massive chairshot to the back! The Grave Digger stumbles forward, and Tony Garcia grabs his arm, then wraps it forcefully around one of the ringposts!! The Grave Digger grimaces in pain, and Tony Garcia takes the chair again, then smashes it down on the Grave Digger's arm, nailing it between the ringpost and the chair! The Grave Digger's clearly in a lot of pain, and Tony Garcia grabs him by the hair, then jerks him over to the steel ramp. He puts him in a standing headscissors and lifts... PILEDRIVER ON THE STEEL!! Tony Garcia just nailed the Grave Digger with a huge piledriver on the steel ramp!! That might be enough to do it!
Tony Garcia pulls the Grave Digger up and drags him to the casket, then opens the lid and sets the Grave Digger up on the apron. Tony Garcia tries to roll the Grave Digger from the apron into the casket, but the Grave Digger refuses to go over, and he pulls the lid shut, then he begins to stand up!! But Tony Garcia's climbing up on top of the casket now... and as the Grave Digger turns around, he stands up on the casket and hooks him in a front chancery! Come on, can he honestly do this!? Tony Garcia bellows loudly and lifts... VERTICAL SUPLEX FROM THE CASKET THROUGH THE ANNOUCERS' TABLE!! The Grave Digger, over seven feet tall and nearly four hundred pounds, just got suplexed off of the top of the casket, through the announcers' table!! He's motionless in the wreckage, and the crowd's chanting "VCW!" loudly! Nobody that size has ever taken a bump like that in VCW!
Tony Garcia gets up, grinning with satisfaction, and pulls the Grave Digger up out of the wreckage. That may be enough... he opens the lid of the casket, then powers the Grave Digger up and rolls him inside. The Grave Digger's stuffed in the casket, and Tony Garcia slams the lid... no!! The Grave Digger catches it!! The Grave Digger just caught the casket lid and flung it open again!! Tony Garcia stares in shock... AND THE GRAVE DIGGER SITS UP!! The crowd's on its feet, and they can't believe it! He stands up in the casket, staring down to Tony Garcia on the floor... and he leaps off of the casket to nail Tony Garcia with a flying clothesline!! Tony Garcia goes down, but the Grave Digger is down as well, clutching his right arm... but he's shrugging off the pain and getting up... and now he tosses Tony Garcia back into the ring, and follows him inside!!
Tony Garcia's getting up on the inside of the ring, and he throws a few massive punches at the Grave Digger... but the Grave Digger just absorbs them, then whips Tony Garcia into the corner! Tony Garcia hits hard and staggers out, and the Grave Digger catches him... GRAVE YARD SLAM!! Tony Garcia just went down hard! And now the Grave Digger's up, and he pulls Tony Garcia up in a cobra clutch... CRADLE TO GRAVE!! Tony Garcia crashes down hard on the mat again, and the Grave Digger's grimacing with the effort, but he's determined to put Tony Garcia away! He pulls him up again, and grabs him by the throat, bracing him carefully with his left hand... CHOKESLAM!!
The Grave Digger just chokeslammed Tony Garcia!! But his right arm's clearly in pain, and Rebecca Black's motioning to the back... here comes some reinforcements! Brujah runs out of the back with a chair, followed by Lorenzo Vasquez and Troy Black, then slides into the ring... and the Grave Digger rushes him, knocking the chair into his face with a Yakuza kick!! Brujah's down!! Lorenzo Vasquez is in the ring... and the Grave Digger drills him with a kick to the midsection, then lifts him high in the air and pitches him onto Troy Black! Lorenzo Vasquez and Troy Black get up to their feet... and the Grave Digger grabs each of them by the throat... DOUBLE CHOKESLAM!! They're both down! But the Grave Digger's clutching his right shoulder in pain, and Rebecca Black comes in and jumps on his back, choking him from behind... but he falls back on her, squishing her underneath his massive weight!!
The Grave Digger gets up, clutching his arm in pain... and now Tony Garcia's up, clobbering him from behind! He grabs him and prepares to lift him for the Torture Rack... but the Grave Digger slips out behind him!! He lifts Tony Garcia from behind with a rear gutwrench, turning him upside-down... BURIAL!! The crowd's on its feet, and the Black Plague members are all flat on their backs... and the Grave Digger rolls Tony Garcia into the casket... and he shuts the lid!! The Grave Digger wins!!
