Dan: The Nubian Warriors with DJ Slam making their way down to the ring and one would have to wonder what is The Nubian's status in Black Power? These guys have been losing lots of matches lately, and word is that Martin X is NOT happy with their performance in recent weeks. Dima: If this Martin X was smart, he would recruit a RUSSIAN TAG TEAM! Dan: The Nubian Warriors climbing into the ring and they lift their fist up in teh air with defiance..... Nubian Warriors and DJ Slam: BLACK POWER! Andy: And their opponents...... ("Fight The Power" by Public Enemy plays loudly in the background) Andy: Accompanied to the ring by their manager, MA, from Evergreen, Alabama, weighing at a total combined weight of 598 pounds, THE REDNECK TRUCKERS! Dan: Is there a mistake with the music? That's the music of Black Power! Wait a minute! Here comes The Redneck Truckers! Oh boy! The Redneck Truckers walking down the aisle with a "gangsta lean" and they have their faces painted black! I don't think the members of Black ower ae going to appreciate that one one bit! And here comes The Nubian Warriors! The Warriors climbing out of the ring and charging towards the Truckers and we have an outside brawl going on here! The Nubians hammering away on The Redneck Truckers! Nelson punching away on Zeke while Muffasa is brawling with Trail. Wait a minute! Here comes Ma with a purse and BOO-YA!!! Right across the back of the head of Nelson! She comes up behing Muffasa and BOO-YA! Lays him out as well! And DJ Slam isn't doing anything! Dima: I sense tension with The Black Man! Dan: I agree! Zeke and Trail lifting Muffasa up in the air and OH MY! They drop him right across the guard railing! And Muffasa is out! Now they are dragging Nelson towards the ring. The Redneck Truckers roll Nelson into the ring and Zeke climbs into the ring. Zeke lifthing him up and FACE FIRST PILEDRIVER BY ZEKE! Nelson is out! Zeke taging in Trail. Trail going ove rto the fallen Nelson Bukola. He lifts him up in the air and INVERTED POUR BOMB! Trail lifting him up. Quick tag to Zeke! Zeke to the ropes and REVERSE NECKBREAKER!

Dan: The Redneck Truckers completely destroying The Nubian Warriors as DJ Slam just walking away! And The Truckers aren't done yet! Zeke hanging Nelson over the top rope. Ma giving Trailer a microphone cord! Trailer wrapping the microphone cord around Nelson. I think he's going to hang him! Wait a minute! Here comes BLACK POWER!!! Black Power running towards the ring and Teh Redneck Truckers quickly leaving the scene and making their way to the back. But The Nubian with another loss, this time to the rookie Redneck Truckers. Dima: These Nubians aren't true warriors! They are PATHETIC! Dan: It's been a great card so far, and it looks like The Knick Man is on his way out here! (The crowd cheers loudly as The Knick Man makes his way from the lockerroom. He is dressed in a black tee shirt with Byron Brady holding the World Title on the front, and on the back the words "Walk The Hard Line" He also has on a pair of blue guess jeans and a pair of Knick Man Championship sneakers. The Knick Man shakes the hands of many of the fans as he continues his way down the aisle. He finally makes his way to the ring, takes a microphone and begins to speak.) Knick Man: What can I say about "Hard Line" Byron Brady? The man is probably one of the BEST, if not THE BEST wrestler in the AICW today! You see, before guys like myself, Devon Burke, Daron Foley and others arrived here, "Hard Line" Byron Brady along with Mark McMahon were the only two men who weren't afraid to stand up for what they believed in. Ice Cold did too, at one time, but I don't even want to talk about that piece of trash. (The crowd cheers loudly) Knick Man: Byron Brady, you probably don't even know me that well. You have no reason to respect me. You see, before I finally signed a contract with the AICW, I was an evil man! I did things in my career that would make "The Demon" Kyle Bane look like a "Saint!" The fans? (laughs) I didn't give a damn what the fans said and thought. They were my last pirority! The only thing that mattered to me was making money and winning matches. And those two things, I did ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING to see to it that it happened. (The Knick Man takes a reflective pause, then continues) Knick Man: But when I saw "Hard Line" Byron Brady in action, I saw a man with RESPECT! A man with DIGNITY! He didn't need any fancy gimmick! He didn't need to use illegal tactics. All he ded was step into the ring, and every single opponent that would go up against him would have no other choice but to "walk the Hard Line" I watched as Byron Brady defeated opponent after opponent! And the men that Brady beat weren't just your average competitors. This men took on and defeated the AICW's best! Legion, Johnny Smith, and even Kyle Bane! Brady took them all on! And Brady made each and every one of them "walk the Hard Line"(The fans cheer loudly) Knick Man: Now I understand that the man who brought honor and dignity to this league might be leaving. The man who inspired ME to change my ways! Yeah, that's right, Byron, (points to Byron) YOU inspired (points to self) ME! Brady, if you got to leave, then do what you got to do. But I couldn't let a man like you just walk on outta here without saying something! Brady, you're a class act! Don't let Bane get the victory by walking out of here and letting him be able to tell everyone that HE ELIMINATED BRADY! Don't let it end like that Brady! You got too many people depending on you Brady! You got fellow wrestlers like ME who want to see you hand Bane his BEHIND! And most importantly, you got THE FANS! (crowd cheers loudly and begins a Brady, Brady chant) Byron, don't come back for me! Come back for yourself! And come back for THE FANS! And if you ever need anything brother, you can always count on THE KNICK MAN! (The Knick Man climbs out of the ring and makes his way to the back as the fans cheer loudly) Dan: Ladies and gentlemen we've gotta take a break! I can't believe Byron didn't listen to the Knick Man!! Stay with us!
