(Cut to an outside shot of the Pepsi Center Parking Deck - a black Lincoln Continental pulls up, with Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse in the front seat. Out of the corner of the camera, we hear an engine revving) We've just cut outside, where our producers have been tipped off that something is about to happen, and we're seeing Siouxnami pull up to the docking bay, and...WHAT THE HELL!?!?! (The camera pans left, and we see a green and purple tie-dye painted Hummer racing towards the Continental) Oh no, I'd recognize that Hummer anywhere! My god..that's the HURLEY BOYS!!!! (*LOUD* crash as the hummer rams right into the Lincoln Continental, smashing it against the wall) Holy...Siouxnami were in that car!!! The Hurley Boys just RAMMED that Lincoln Continental with their Hummer!!! I knew the hatred ran deep and long between these two teams, but I never dreamed...and they ram the Lincoln again!!! Come on! Somebody put a stop to this! They're trying to *KILL* Siouxnami, for Pete's sake! About the only thing that can compete with a Hummer is a school bus, and sadly for Siouxnami, that's not what they came to the Pepsi Center in. Hummers are built to last, to be sure...and now the Hurleys are RUNNING OVER THE CAR!!! The Hurleymobile, I guess it's called, is now sitting ON TOP of Siouxnami's Lincoln Continental, and they're trapped in there! And knowing how the Hurleys treat most of their other family vehicles, they'll leave that Hummer up there and replace the tires with cinder blocks! I know that Siouxnami are two big mean bastards, and the Hurleys are looking for payback, but this is a bit extreme!!! The Hurley's now leaving the arena, apparently they're satisfied with what they did! @@@@@@@@@@@@@@ *********************************** @ Camera Cut @************************************* @@@@@@@@@@@@@@ We've got some medical attention coming for Siouxnami right now, fans, I have to apologize, it looks pretty clear that the planned Double Strap match between Siouxnami and the Hurleys isn't going to happen. Well, here's something I hope *does* happen - you were talking earlier about Commissioner Jansen possibly lowering the boom on Mikhail Tzskova for his post-match beating on Titus Moongarden. If she takes disciplinary action against him, she better not just throw the book at the Hurleys for that attack. She better throw the whole encyclopedia at them! ("Heroes" by David Bowie comes on over the speakers) Well, the Hurley's just left the arena, and from the looks of things it doesn't look like they're coming back...meanwhile, here's a guy that's been through a proverbial car wreck of his own as of late, one Curtis Stone! And that's putting it mildly, Cross. It started with a bit of self- doubt, it grew into a full-blown identity crisis....you know, if you want to place the blame on one person for breaking up the Power Supply, you're looking at him right now. His fit of depression started rubbing off on his teammates, and I don't blame Nick Duncan and Death Machine Crimson for splintering off to form their own team. Stone gave the Wave Runners everything they could handle BY HIMSELF, and he's been trying very hard to play it above the board, even after his tag team partner was DEVASTATED by Duncan and Death Machine Crimso... DR DESTRUCTO CHARGES OUT, and he just clotheslined Curtis Stone from behind! Well, Stone can't worry about the condition of his partner and perhaps the only friend he has left on the planet, Jon Owens. He'll have to put out an even better performance than he did against the Wave Runners if he wants to beat Dr. Destructo. Destructo the last remaining member of Ground Zero 2000, and he's trying to finish the job his teammates started, by eliminating the LAST member of the Power Supply, one Curtis Stone! Destructo stomping away on Stone on the outside, and he's just rolling him down the ramp as he stomps! Well, this match isn't a street fight or no DQ affair, but it might as well be. They've assigned Mason Crow as the referee, and he's one of the more timid officials we have. I think he'll mostly stay in the background and let these two slug it out. Destructo picks up Stone, sends him into the guardrail, NO, STONE REVERSES, and Destructo crashes backfirst into the barrier! Destructo staggering forward *POP* and a HARD SPEAR by Stone, and Destructo is laid out on the outside! And right there's an example of how much Stone has changed in the past few months. Just a few months ago, that spear would have warranted a Heisman Trophy pose from Stone. Now no pose after the spear tackle, the cockiness is gone, the edge is gone, he's getting some fan support now, but moral support isn't going to help Stone in this match. Fans got into that more, and now Destructo being tossed into the ring, and Stone is right behind him. Hard right hands by the former CFL standout, Stone rocking the big Doctor in the ring! I can't understand why anyone would be proud of being a superstar in the Canadian Football League. I mean, that's just a sign you're not good enough to make it in the NFL. Everybody knows Canadian football isn't real football. Just as Canadian Bacon isn't real bacon, Canadian beer isn't real beer and Canadian women....well, I can't say that in public. Stone now going for an irish whip, reversed by Destructo, and Stone goes crashing in, but STONE LEVELS DESTRUCTO WITH AN ELBOWSMASH AS HE BOUNCES OUT! That whip to the corner didn't faze Stone at all! He bounced right out of there with as much momentum as if he bounced off the ropes by his own choice! Stone with some kicks to the head, he picks up Destructo..gutbuster finds the mark, and we've got a cover, WE'VE GOT TWO...not enough this soon, and Stone locking on a shoulder claw right on a nerve! Interesting choice of attack by Stone here. He's not usually known for submission holds, but apparently someone's been giving him lessons. I don't think Destructo is used to having someone else putting a pretty effective submission hold on him. Stone getting an early advantage here, he's trying to wear down Destructo with that nervehold...and Destructo with a rho sham bo, not wasting any time in moving past the rulebook! You know, a few months ago Destructo was starting to show a hair of decency, of honor, and I should have known that would never last. Well, the Doctor does whatever he wants to do. He does whatever he does to advance his own status and his own agenda. I mean, look at how he handled Jimmy Lowe and the Underworld. He joined them because he wanted to join, didn't get too deep into an alliance with Lowe, and when he didn't need them anymore, he left. He used Jimmy Lowe and his cohorts for his own personal gain, and the Sweet one had no idea it was even happening! There's a true genius for you! Eye rake now by Destructo, and Destructo now sending Stone into the ropes, and a HARD charging kneesmash by the TV champion just 360ed Curtis Stone!!! Destructo has always been a force to be dealt with throughout his career, but it looks like he's turned it up a notch since earning the Television Title. That knee smash was right on the money, and I think he put a liltle more "oomph" behind it than he usually does. Remember, this is NOT for Destructo's TV title, that title is defended only on free television, Destructo with a European Uppercut, or a Eurocut as I call it, and now Destructo with a double leg takedown, and a FALLING HEADBUTT RIGHT INTO STONE'S GROIN! He's stopping at nothing! Destructo showing no mercy at all in there! And just as you said, he knows the title isn't at stake here, so he's got nothing to lose and he's holding nothing back at all. He just wants to add to Stone's suffering. Destructo now grabbing a leg, and FALLING right onto the leg, and here comes vintage Doc righ there! Destructo taking a moment to cover, but he only gets a two count out of it. And now the picking apart begins! Stone came into this match already wounded in mind and in spirit. The only thing left to injure is the body, and the Doc is more than capable of seeing to that. Destructo now turning Stone over into a boston crab, this is a submission move, here. Destructo leaning back into the back while holding those legs. Which is usually how a Boston crab is applied, Cross. I refuse to let you insult the intelligence of our viewers. That's what I'm here for. Stone not giving up, there's a lot of fight in Curtis Stone, and now Stone using his upper body strength to try to push himself up out of this. Likely a bit too early to get a submission out of Stone, here. I'd think the Doc is using this to get some of his own wind back and make Stone use up some of that upper body strength to get out of this predicament... and he's certainly trying! But can he get the big Doctor completely off of him? HE SURE DID! Stone with a pushup out of the boston crab, and Destructo goes flying into the turnbuckle! And pushing up out of a Boston crab is certanily no easy feat. That *had* to take a lot out of Curtis Stone. Destructo comes over, but Stone with a hard right into the sternum of Cross, and now a shot to the face that shoots Destructo's head back, and Stone's on his feet...but Destructo fires back with a boot to the gut, and now a whip to the ropes...and Stone's leg gives out from under him. And the Doc not wasting any time. He just *jumped* onto that leg like a bunch of old ladies going after the bargain bin at a White Sale! Destructo peppering that leg with elbowsmashes, now, and Destructo going for the figure four, and he's got that cinched in! And Stone is lying smack-dab in the center of the ring, Cross! The worst possible place he can be....or the best, if you're looking at it from the Doc's perspective. No ropes in sight. The only way out is to turn it over or hope Destructo lets go, and I don't see the latter happening. This has got to be tearing Stone's leg apart, now referee Mason Crow checking on Stone, and Destructo pulling on the ropes to get extra leverage, but the referee is too busy checking on Stone to see it! And you know as well as I do, the ref can't call what he doesn't see! And a wily veteran like Dr. Destructo knows how to take advantage of every little opening he can find. Destructo letting go as the referee looks over, but he grabs on again when Crow turns his attention back to Stone. Destructo pulling every underhanded trick in the book to put Stone out...and this time the referee saw it, and he's forcing Destructo to break the hold! Well, that time he caught it, but he had Stone in that figure four for about a minute and a half, so the damage has already been done. Destructo now grabbing Stone's legs, he's trying to turn him over into the cloverleaf...and Stone AGAIN doing a pushup to get Destructo to break the hold! Good night, how deep a reserve does Stone have?? Destructo has been wearing him down and wearing him down some more all match long. The Doc's frustration level has got to be over the top! Both men are slow to get up, Destructo's up first, but Stone isn't far behind him...Destructo trying for a kneeclip, but Stone dodges.... Stone propped into a corner, Destructo dives for that leg again and goes HEADFIRST INTO THE STEEL POST! Stone with the presense of mind to pull himself and that gimpy leg up and out of the way. And you better believe he knows Destructo is going to go back to it the first chance he gets, so he better take every precaution he can to protect it. Stone trying to get some feeling back into that leg, as the fans are getting a "C-Jack" chant going here, even though that Curtis Stone has said he's not going by C-Jack anymore! It'll be a long time before the fans stop calling him "C-Jack", Cross. Some things you're so used to seeing or hearing that it stays with you even when it's no longer true. Sort of like calling a black cat bad luck or the Denver Nuggets a basketball team. Stone pulls back a dazed Destructo...HARD belly to back suplex, and Stone starting to get fired up here...he shoves Destructo into the corner, and fires some hard rights at his heads [Crowd] ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! Destructo grabs him by the legs and falls BACKWARDS into a variation of the Frontal Lobotomy, and Destructo locking on the Texas Cloverleaf!!! Beautiful counter by the Doctor and right into his signature hold! But he should have dragged Stone out a few more feet to the center of the ring before he hooked it on. Stone's only one or two arm lenghts away from the bottom rope. All he really has to do is swing himself around about 45 degrees and he'll get the break....and that's exactly what he's trying to do! He's got it cinched on, Stone refusing to give up, and Stone manages to get to the ropes, and Destructo can't believe this! Well, he has no right to complain about that one. That was just bad ring positioning on his part, and no one to blame but himself for it. Now the Doctor setting Stone up on the ropes, HARD fist by the 260 pounder stuns Stone on the top..and now the Doctor and Stone on the top rope... STONE REVERSES - "HIJACKER"!!! SUPER SPINEBUSTER OFF THE TOP! And now *Stone* with a reversal into his signature move! The Doctor landed hard on his back, but I don't know if that will be enough to keep him down for a three count. We're about to find out. Stone covers, and Crow is there...we've got one...we've got two...WE'VE GOT THREE!!!! STONE JUST BEAT THE TELEVISION CHAMPION!!! *Crowd pop* ("Heroes" comes back on) And this has to be a *huge* confidence booster for Stone! He needed a win in the worst possible way, he got it, and he likely just earned himself a Television Title match out of this victory. Curtis Stone getting the duke here to the approval of the crowd, and DESTRUCTO KICKING HIM DOWN FROM BEHIND!!! And not giving Stone any time to celebrate! Destructo may have lost the match, but he's still going out to win the war between Ground Zero 2000 and the Power Supply...at least what's left of the Power Supply, seeing as Curtis Stone is obviously flying solo. This is the Doc being a sore loser, nothing more, nothing less, and Destructo getting on the Texas Cloverleaf, Stone needs some backup here, but his one ally, Jon Owens, is injured and not here tonight!!! You know, it's so sad to see the fate of someone all alone in the world. Stone could really use a friend right now, but he's burned a lot of bridges since coming to EWC, and I don't think anyone would *want* to be his friend anymore! Destructo not letting go....hold up, DAMIEN OMEGA HAS JUST HIT THE RING, and a HARD savate kick by the former North American titleholder sends Destructo out of the ring!! And that is the kind of human being Damien Omega is!!! It doesn't matter what their past is, he's concerned about the present and the future!!! I wouldn't give Omega that much credit, Cross. I think he's doing this just to score some Brownie points with the fans. He knows he lost a lot of respect and prestige when he lost the North American strap to Stevie Mauritz, and he figures this is a way to get some of it back. Omega now helping up Curtis, and the fans are chanting for C-Jack! If this young man was looking for redemption for his past, he took a big step tonight, and he's got no less than Damien Omega willing to back his play! Well, I'm very interested to see if this alliance will last. It's only appropriate that in the Mile High City a wrestler with a Mile-High ego would come to the rescue. And I have a feeling once Omega is finished using Stone, just like Destructo and the Underworld, he'll toss him right back out on the curb. We've got these words now from one of the participants of the Nightmare Gauntlet! His name...is Ernie Grendel!
