[Fade up]
[PAGE]:Welcome back to Wildfire folks and during the commercial break we witnessed Taranis taking apart Kushner in ways I could of never imagined.
[MCCOY]:That's what makes a gauntlet match so good Eddie is the fact that the winner has to really cowboy up and get it all together as he has no opportunity to catch his breath.
[PAGE]: Let's go back to the replay to let you see what happened.
[Screen fades to a split shot where the fans can see Taranis sliding into the ring. A moment later Kushner bounces off the ropes and attempts a cross body block but the fresher Taranis catches the high flying wrestling and drops him across his knee with a backbreaker. Taranis then follows it up by hauling Python to his feet and Irish Whipping him into the ropes where he catches the much smaller man with a knee which flips Kushner over. Not letting up Taranis scoops up Kushner and sends him chest first into the nearest turnbuckle. Kushner staggers out and is met by Taranis who wraps his arms around Kushner's waist and sends him flying backwards onto the mat with a release German Suplex.]
[PAGE]: As you can see Taranis has thrown Kushner out of the ring where the former TV champion is lying on the floor in pain.
[MCCOY]: I feel for him I really do..NOT
[WIth a evil smirk on his face Taranis rolls out of the ring which prompts Alexander to start the count out. As Kushner starts to get to his feet, Taranis sends a brutal kick into his chest that flips the fan favorite over onto his back. Taranis then starts to boot the boots to Kushner sending him bouncing across the floor to the security railing.]
Two....
Three..........
Four....
[PAGE]: Taranis is looking to do some serious damage to Kushner.
{MCCOY]: Nothing wrong with that. Kushner is a big boy and can handle it. After all he did go through glass at End of Days.
Five.........
[Taranis pushes his boot against the throat of Kushner and turns towards the ref to see what the count is at. Seeing Alexander motion for seven, Taranis grabs the helpless Kushner and tosses him into the ring. Taranis follows a moment later after procuring a chair from the first row of fans.]
THWAAAAAAAAAAAACKKKK!! THWACCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKK!!
[PAGE]: OH DEAR GOD!! TARANIS JUST CAVED IN KUSHNER'S SKULL WITH THOSE CHAIR SHOTS!!
[MCCOY]: Kushner is bleeding like a stuck pig..Or should I say stuck sheep.
[The camera zooms in on Kushner who is lying on his back. Blood pores from a large gash on his forehead, a smaller one drips blood from under his eye. It only takes seconds before Kushner's face is covered in blood. Taranis stands over Kushner the chair raised over his head for another strike but Alexander rushes over and quickly plucks it from the Darkness member's hands. With a cold glare at Alexander, Taranis drops to his knees and covers Kushner]
One........
[PAGE]: I don't know if Kushner can pull this out.
Two....................
Threee...............
[PAGE]: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I don't know how he did it but Kushner managed to get his shoulder up just before Alexander slapped the mat.
[MCCOY]: Horrible mistake by Taranis, he should of hooked the leg. Rookie mistake by a man who knows better.
[Taranis slaps the mat in frustration but decides to keep the pressure on Kushner by Irish Whipping him into the far ropes. Kushner whether from adrenaline or pure desperation manages to leap over an back body drop by Taranis but can do nothing when Taranis spins around and nearly decapitates him with a clothesline. The crowd lets out a collective groan as Kushner flips completely over and lands on his stomach.]
[PAGE]: Another pin attempt by Taranis.
[MCCOY]: Notice this time he hooked Kushner's leg.
One.........
Two................
Thre...
[MCCOY]: SON OF A BI.......
[PAGE]: BINGO DABBER. UNBELIEVABLE!! Jeff managed to find the ropes with his free leg and placed his foot on it. Taranis is going ballistic.
[Taranis leaps to his feet and gets into Alexander's face, screaming that the three count had happened before Kushner put his foot on the ropes. Alexander to his credit doesn't back down and motions that Kushner put his foot on the rope before the three count was done. The two men continue arguing for several seconds which leaves Kushner time to roll to his feet. The high flyer grins at the crowd, showing teeth caked in blood. WIth a roar the crowd watches as Kushner rolls over to Taranis and .........]
[PAGE]: KUSHNER JUST ROLLED TARANIS UP!! WHAT A SMART MOVE!!
One...........
[The crowd quickly gets into the count]
[CROWD]: ONE!!!
Two.................
[CROWD]: TWOOOOOO!!!
[CROWD]: THREEEE!!!
[PAGE]: NO!! Taranis kicked out. He might of been surprised by that roll up by Kushner but I'll say one thing, it is going to take more than that to keep the Lord of the Ring down.
[MCCOY]:Kushner is going to need the 3rd MAF to keep Taranis down. Look at Kushner he's being beaten worse than a rented mule.
[Taranis quickly rolls to his feet after the pin attempt and watches with contempt as Kushner tries to get to his feet. Taranis grabs Kushner by the hair and sends a knee into his jaw. A second knee put Kushner back down on the mat. Taranis then bounces off the ropes and drops a knee across the throat of the former TV champ. Kushner rolls around the ring, his hand clutching his throat as he tries to regain his breathe.]
[PAGE]:Taranis is slowly taking apart Kushner. I'm beginning to wonder if the former Mr. Dude is trying to win this match or show The Authority what the Darkness is capable of.
[MCCOY]: I'll pick door number two Eddie. Taranis is going to win plus take Kushner apart.
[Taranis places Kushner in a standing head scissors, then flips him over into what looks like is going to be a powerbomb. Kushner starts sending punches into the forehead of Taranis in hopes of making the much bigger man off balance. As Taranis starts to bring Kushner down to complete the powerbomb, Kushner grabs the Lord of the Ring by the head and connects with a desperation DDT/Face Slam. The crowd jumps to it's feet and starts chanting Kushner.]
{PAGE]: REVERSAL!! KUSHNER MANAGED TO REVERSE THE POWERBOMB!!
[MCCOY]: That was pure desperation. Kushner needed to do something or they would of had to dig him out of the bottom of the ring.
[Taranis bounces hard off the mat and lands on his back. Kushner remains face down unmoving. Slowly Kushner moves his head to the right and the camera picks up the smear of blood left on the mat from the cut on his forehead.. Alexander starts the ten count.]

[PAGE]:I truly believe Kushner should think about throwing in the towel he can barely move.
[MCCOY]: Give the guy some credit Eddie. Did I just say that.

[PAGE]:Yes you did Russell. Yes you did.

[Taranis suddenly rolls over and sits up.With a quick shake of his head he jumps to his feet and starts sending a series of boots to the head of Kushner. Kushner quickly rolls out of the way and when Taranis approaches Kushner kicks out with both of his legs connecting with the right knee of Taranis. Taranis' leg buckles but he doesn't fall. Kushner takes care of that little problem by sending another kick to his left knee. With a howl of pain Taranis drops to the mat and is met in the face with another kick this time to his face]
[PAGE]: Kushner is fighting back the only way he can now. By keeping Taranis grounded.
[MCCOY]: Desperate times call for desperate measures.
[Feeding off the crowd Kushner gets to his feet and connects with a standing dropkick to the face of Taranis. With hesitating Kushner bounces off the ropes and connects with another drop kick. This time to the right knee of Taranis. Kushner then drops on top of Taranis and goes for the pin]
One...............
Two..............
[PAGE]: Kickout by Taranis. The big man is back on his feet but you can see how he is favoring his knee after that dropkick
[MCCOY]: If that's the best Kushner has he better go hide.
[Once again Kushner takes to the ropes where he leaps into the air, wraps his arm around Taranis' head and sends him to the mat with a flying bulldog. With momentum on his side Kushner leaps to the second rope and...............]
[PAGE]: MOONSAULT BY KUSHNER!! WHERE IS HE GETTING THE ENERGY!!
[MCCOY]: Probaby the same place as Adam-X.
[PAGE]: What??
One..................
[PAGE]: Kushner going for the pin again. He really wants to end this match.
[MCCOY]: So does the Red Cross. They must be having kittens watching Kushner waste all that blood.
Two.................
THREEEEEEEEE.................
[PAGE] NOOOOOOOOO! Taranis got his shoulder up.
[Kushner exhales deeply spraying blood from his lips as he breathes. He slowly forces Taranis to his feet and sends a knee to his mid-section. As soon as Taranis bends over, Kushner slaps his arm around his head and connects with a single arm DDT. The crowd goes nuts as Kushner slowly climbs the turnbuckle and faces the inside of the ring.]
[CROWD]: MY TIME!! MY TIME!!!
[PAGE]: Kushner is going for the Swanton BOMB!! MY TIME!! DAMN RIGHT IT'S KUSHNER'S TIME!!
[MCCOY]: Hiding that sheep outfit under the table Eddie.
[Kushner takes to the air but as he comes down Taranis lifts his legs. The crowd lets out a large OOOOOOOOOOOH! as Kushner rolls around the ring in pain. The move though also causes Taranis some pain as he takes the force of Kushner's body across his knees.]
[PAGE]: Both men are down an in considerable pain. I'm not sure either is going to make the ten count.

[Taranis grabs the ropes and starts to pull himself up. Kushner is lying umoving in the center of the ring which prompts Alexander to go over and check to see if he is still concious.]

[MCCOY]: Kushner is not going to answer the bell.

[Kushner starts kicking his legs. Slowly he gathers his arms under him and pushes up. The crowd ooohs at the site of Kushner's face. The crimson mask is hardening and flakes of blood fall off onto the mat. Behind him Taranis is now on his feet but isn't moving very fast as he is massaging his knees. Taranis waits for Kushner to get to his feet before nailing him in the back of the head with a clothesline. Not wanting to let up the pressure Taranis then hauls Kushner to his feet and wraps him up in what appears to be...................]
[PAGE]: T-BONE SUPLEX!!
[Taranis doesn't let go of the suplex instead he follows through after completing it by hauling Kushner back to his feet.]
[PAGE]:DEATH WARRANT!! TARANIS IS GOING FOR THE DEATH WARRANT!!
[MCCOY]: Say goodnight Gracie.
[Taranis easily executes the second of the three T-bone suplexes but as he gets ready to connect with the third Kushner attempts to block it. Taranis sends a series of knees into Kushner's stomach and before the bloody high flyer can react Taranis connects with the third suplex. A moment later Taranis hooks the leg and goes for the pin]
[PAGE]:I don't think Kushner is going to kick out of this.
[MCCOY]: Sensible observation Eddie.
One........................
Two........................
[As Alexander starts to bring his hand down for the third and final time, two figures leap over the security ring and begin to enter the ring. Taranis sees them coming and immediately breaks the pin attempt to meet the new threat. Taranis though is immediately swarmed by the strangers who pummel him to the mat and throw him out of the ring.]
[PAGE]: MY GOD!! THAT KAOS AND DANGER OF THE IWA!! WHAT THE HELL IS EDGE OF DISASTER DOING HERE!!
[MCCOY]: Looks like they are here to make Taranis' life miserable.
[Alexander is unsure what to do, so he starts counting out Taranis. EoD continue to lay into Taranis with punches kicks and assorted double team moves including a double clothesline and a double suplex. Kushner unsure of who the two men are but realizing a fellow CSWA member is in trouble quickly gets to his feet and rushes towards the ropes.]

[PAGE]: GOOOOOOOD GOD!! SOMERSAULT PLANCHA!! SOMERSAULT PLANCHA BY KUSHNER!! AND IT LOOKS LIKE A TRAIN WRECK OUT THERE!!

[All four men are laid out on the floor. Taranis appears knocked out while Kushner's upper half is hidden under the ring apron. Slowly Kaos and Danger get to their feet and begin to once again work over Taranis. Alexander quickly rolls out of the ring to stop the beating but is met by Kaos who knocks the ref on his as with a punch. Without thinking Kaos grabs Alexander and throws him back into the ring. ]
[PAGE]: HERE COMES BLACKWELL! AND LISTEN TO THE CROWD THEY ARE CHEERING HIM!!
[Sure enough as a bloodied Jeremiah Blackwell rushes down the ramp he is met with cheers. Kaos turns to face Blackwell but his met with a running lariat that sends the big man flying over the security railing. Meanwhile Danger has picked up Taranis and has him over his shoulders. A moment later Danger sends the point man of the Darkness hard to the floor with a reverse Death Valley Driver. He then spins around and leaps over the security railing where Edge of Disaster quickly disappear leaving Blackwell alone with Kushner and Taranis]
[PAGE]: What a horrible attack. This all stems from a brawl that Taranis and Blackwell were involved in with Edge of Disaster at an IWA Shockwave a couple weeks back. I smell the makings of a big feud here folks.
[MCCOY]: But what the hell about this match. Concentrate Eddie.
[Alexander slowly gets to his feet and surveys the situation. Looking around he sees that EoD have disappared so he restarts the ten count. Blackwell is livid and rolls into the ring to argue that Kushner should be DQed for EoD interfering against Taranis. Alexander doesn't back down though and continues with the ten count. Kushner gets to his feet and half slides half crawls into the ring as Alexander hits the five count. With Alexander busy concentrating on Taranis outside the ring Blackwell decides to take out his frustrations by using Kushner as a punching bag. Kushner though has other plans and starts firing back with lefts and rights of his own.]
[PAGE]: Taranis is going to be counted out. There is no way in hell he is going to make it in the ring in time.
[MCCOY]: Damn Kushner. He and the Authority probaby hired Eve of Destruction to take out Taranis.
[PAGE]: That's Edge of Disaster Russell..
[MCCOY]:Whatever, they still cheat.
[Alexander calls for the bell and and motions for Diamond Lou to make the call. Blackell's mouth drops in shock but before he can do anything about it Kushner connects with a jumping side kick that sends the big Texan into the ropes. Blackwell grabs onto the ropes to stop himself as Diamond Lou makes the call.]
[DIAMOND LOU]: And your winner via cout out Jeff KUSHNERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
[MCCOY]:Cheap win for a cheating man.
[PAGE]: Oh get off it already Russell.
[DIAMOND LOU]: And his opponent, former CSWA TV CHAMPION.........PYTHONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
[The crowd goes nuts as Python steps out onto the ramp. He soaks up the crowd for a moment before making his way to the ring. Inside the ring Blackwell has ambushed Kushner and is laying into him with a series of lefts and rights that reopens the cut on his forehead. Python seeing grabs a discarded chair and rushes into the ring. Blackwell who senses Python rushing behind him quicky drops to his knees as the high flying wrestler swings the chair in a high arc. Unfortunately he misses Blackwell completely but connects with Kushner's face. Kushner flies over the top rope and lands with a thunk on the floor. ]
[MCCOY]: Well that bit Python in the ass didnt it.
[DING DING DING]
[PAGE AND MCCOY]: WHAT THE....???
[DIAMOND LOU]: And your winner via disqualification. JEFF KUSHNERRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[The crowd falls silent as the announcement is made. Python looks around in shock the chair still in his hands. Jeff Kushner rolls to his knees a mixed look of shock and anger etched across his face. Blackwell rolls out of the ring picks Taranis up and half drags half carries his stablemate up the ramp. ]
[PAGE]: This is a TRAVESTY!! How can Barry Alexander in good concious DQ Python when his intentions were only good. This is assinine.
[MCCOY]: Well the road to hell is paved with good intentions and Python just learned a vital lesson. Don't help anyone if you are planning on beating them in a match....
[PAGE]: IT STINKS!! Plain and simple. We have to go to a commercial folks. We will be right back.
[Camera fades away with a shot of Jeff Kushner and Python staring at eachother with a look of shock and mistrust.]
