The camera man shifts his focus away from
Nick and Bobby, heading towards OWF Ring Announcer Missy
Janson who is on her feet; standing next to the time
keepers table with a microphone in her left hand. Bobby Shavonie - And speaking of bright; it
looks like we're ready for the second match of the night,
which was actually scheduled to open the show. Nick Burst - Well plans change. DK is gone,
forever, and The Jackrabbit faces Kid Dynamo in the
second match. That won't change anything for either man. The crowd begins noticing Missy's position,
but not all of them are keen to it quite yet. Bobby Shavonie - I hope not; so lets send
it over to Missy Janson so we can get them both out here,
and see what they are made of! Nick Burst - That was so awkward of you to
say. If I said it, threw in the word "fuck" or
"shit" a few times, it could have worked. Not
you though. Bobby Shavonie - Oh give me a break, Nick. Bringing the microphone up in front of her
face, Missy Janson speaks to the crowd. Missy Janson - Our
next match is scheduled for a one-fall, with no time
limit... The crowd stops
what they are doing, and gives their full attention to
the ringside area. Missy Janson -
Introducing first... from Colorado Springs, Colorado...
Kid Dynamo! "GODDDDD
MOOOOODE!!!!!" The lights in the
arena pulse with the rhythmic beating of open hi-hats.
After four beats, the thunderous guitars of
"Comfortable Liar" cue the lights suddenly
maximizing their brightness, a silent explosion that
causes most of the audience to look away. As the lights
fade back to normal, the audience looks back to see Kid
Dynamo standing on the entryway. The audience reaction is
of emphatic dissent: not one person in the audience is
silent in their disapproval. Dynamo stands there at the
top of the entrance ramp, silently demanding the praise
and adoration of the fans in the OWF arena, seemingly
aloof to the chorus of boos with which the audience is
pelting him, while the song's intro plays. As the verse
enters, Dynamo slowly begins traversing the entrance ramp
towards the ring. "Broad...is
this sea Meanwhile, the
camera bounces back and forth between anti-Dynamo signs
sprinkled throughout the arena and KD himself walking
majestically to the ring. Bobby Shavonie -
This match got booked just nine days ago, where Kid
Dynamo suffered a tough loss to Greg Jackson. Do you
think the outcome of that match will play a factor at all
tonight? Nick Burst -
Listen I give Kid Dynamo shit because he deserves it, but
if he's smart he will leave whatever happened on
Addiction in the past; including him spitting on me. If
he's worried about what I'm saying about him tonight,
he's going to end up on the short end of the stick. Bobby Shavonie -
He worked really hard against Jackson and nearly pulled
out the win, but tonight he goes against a completely
different man; a man who he has attacked previously, and
will certainly be ready when the bell rings. Nick Burst - This
is an ass kicking Kid Dynamo deserves, but I'm the one
who you have to trust when I say that Dynamo is more than
capable of pulling out a win here. Bobby Shavonie -
Why have you changed your tune so sharply on him? Nick Burst - I
haven't... He's a fucking asshole and if he comes near me
tonight I'm punching him right in the fucking mouth, but
last week he proved something to the world; no matter how
big of a douche bag he is, when he's inside of that ring
he's going to bring it. He does not
interact with the fans, but seems to acknowledge them,
continuing to wordlessly profess his importance upon all
eyes pointed at him or at a TV watching the broadcast.
Finally, Dynamo reaches the ring steps and walks up and
into the squared circle, pausing in the near corner as
his music fades out. The cameras cut back outside to
Missy, as she continues on with her introductions. Missy Janson - And
his opponent... from Parts Unknown... The Jackrabbit! The arena lights
dim, and hysterical laughter sounds through the arena. A
series of rabbits appear on the big screen, their eyes a
crimson red. "Out Of My Head" by Puddle Of Mudd
begins to play, as smoke fills the entrance-ramp and blue
strobe lights scan the arena. Onto the ramp steps The
Jackrabbit. He is wearing one of his trademark T-Shirts,
and his plaid, wrestling shorts. Bobby Shavonie -
This man has had his ups and downs with us, but he is has
emerged as a major threat in our roster. Nick Burst -
That's the only reason Kid Dynamo cared enough to attack
him. We've seen a lot of shit going back a few weeks with
these two mixing it up, and when President Chase Johnson
made this match there was no doubting why. Now it's up to
The Jackrabbit to win a match on Pay Per View, something
he hasn't done since October of last year. Bobby Shavonie -
That has to be extra motivation for a man like him, who
seems to be lost and on his own right now. Nick Burst - When
you're as talented as him, you can get by being by
yourself; but you need to be able to win matches against
high caliber athletes like Kid Dynamo in order to be
taken seriously when it comes to this business. No one
cares what has happened in the past; it's all about what
have you done for me five minutes from now. Bobby Shavonie -
And five minutes from now, The Jackrabbit hopes to be in
firm control of this match; and I like his chances
tonight. The Jackrabbit
begins to walk down the ramp as the music picks up, and
he then runs and slides into the ring as blue strobe
lights scan the arena. He climbs the nearest turnbuckle,
and laughs outloud to himself, raising both arms and
wriggling the index fingers on each as the fans cheer
him. The Jackrabbit then jumps back down, and paces the
ring, looking entirely as though he has no idea where he
is as he heads to his corner; his music quickly fading
out. Now that both men
are in the ring OWF Official Calvin Mills motions to the
time keepers table for the bell to be rung, to start the
match. (Ding, Ding, Ding...) There's nothing holding these two men back
from going at one another so The Jackrabbit and Kid
Dynamo rush to the middle of the ring, and meet with dual
clotheslines from their right arms; whipping them against
each other's chests. They stand stunned for a moment but
then quickly this match devolves into a fight as
Jackrabbit fires a right hand to the face of Dynamo,
catching him right upon his mouth. He goes for a second
right hook but KD gets his left forearm up and blocks it
so that, in turn, he can unleash a right elbow strike to
the bridge of JR's nose. Knocked back a step The
Jackrabbit leaves himself open for a rushing shoulder
charge to the gut by Kid Dynamo, who forces Jackrabbit
all the way back into the corner he started the match in
as KD unleashes two more shoulder strikes to the stomach.
The blows do their part to weaken his opponent but it
isn't enough to keep Jackrabbit out of it as he balls his
hands together and delivers a double axe handle smash to
the back of Kid Dynamo, briefly dropping him to a knee.
As that happens The Jackrabbit bends down to wrap both of
his arms around the abdomen of his opponent and tries to
lift him up onto his shoulders for what seems to be the
beginnings of a powerbomb position; but Kid Dynamo
counters, executing a back body drop that flips The
Jackrabbit through the air. Somehow, while flipping over
Dynamo's back, Jackrabbit manages to grab onto his
opponent's thighs and looks to be trying for a sunset
flip as KD flails his arms trying to keep his balance on
his feet. It is no use as he is rolled down to his back
but the momentum carried allows him to somersault back up
to his feet before the referee can even get down on the
mat to make the count. Taking a step forward Kid Dynamo
looks for a soccer kick to The Jackrabbit's face but it
is ducked under, and not a second later Dynamo is yanked
down to the mat with a school boy roll up; this one the
referee manages to slide in for. Just as he is about to
start his count The Jackrabbit gets up to his feet and
tucks his head between his opponent's legs and uses all
of the strength in his upper body to hoist Kid Dynamo up
onto his shoulders and into a powerbomb position.
Unfortunately for him Jackrabbit cannot maintain a tight
hold on KD who rolls forward, getting himself out of
harms way while completing a beautiful sunset flip; as
the series of counters and reversals these two men are
pulling off doesn't even stop there. While managing to
pin his opponent's shoulders to the mat, Dynamo is unable
to keep him there and The Jackrabbit rolls out of the
sunset flip to get right back to his feet. He leaps in
the air and looks for a low dropkick to the face of KD,
who dodges it to get up to his feet in a single fluid
motion while JR pushes himself up to his hands and knees
off the miss. Not a second later The Jackrabbit has to
yank his head out of harm's way as Kid Dynamo goes for a
running soccer kick to inflict massive damage on his
opponent. Off the miss Kid Dynamo spins around and The
Jackrabbit gets up to his feet, leaving the two men
staring each other down as the applause from the crowd
rewards both for how they came out of the gates. Bobby Shavonie - Well I think it's safe to
say that these two want to rip each other apart... Nick Burst - I wouldn't say that. I'd say
they're both looking for a victory here that could
greatly boost their position in the federation. It's
obvious they don't like one another and that only adds
fuel to this fire. Staring at each other it's obvious they are
now approaching this match with a different mindset and
pace as they begin circling the ring, trying to eye up a
weak spot to take advantage of. When neither Kid Dynamo
or The Jackrabbit offer up any they head forward and
engage in a collar and elbow tie up, jostling for
position in the center of the squared circle. At first
Kid Dynamo gets the advantage and pushes The Jackrabbit
down to a knee where he abandons the tie up for a side
headlock with his left arm, wrenching upon the head and
neck of JR as he remains on his knees. It's not enough to
keep his opponent down as JR pushes himself back to his
feet and brings a short right elbow into the sternum of
his opponent, followed by a second to that same exact
spot causing Dynamo's grip to loosen. Using both of his
arms The Jackrabbit reaches up to latch onto the left
wrist of his opponent and pries it away from his head,
and keeps a tight hold of it. With as much strength as he
can summon Jackrabbit irish whips KD towards the opposite
side of the ring, releasing him with so much force that
Dynamo barely has time to turn so that his back hits the
ring cables. As he comes sprinting from them The
Jackrabbit leapfrogs high in the air, clearing the height
of his opponent, but Dynamo stops short. When gravity
comes back into play JR is snatched into a standing
fireman's carry by Kid Dynamo who obviously has great
intentions, but by furiously kicking his legs The
Jackrabbit is able to land back on the mat right behind
his opponent. Having avoided the offensive move of his
opponent Jackrabbit now looks to perform one of his own
by spinning KD around and dipping his head down; picking
Dynamo up over his shoulder into a front powerslam
position. JR moves all the way back to the corner he
started the match in and looks at the empty ring and he
dashes forward, intent on flipping his opponent down to
his back; but never gets the chance as Kid Dynamo slides
down his opponent's back, and shoves Jackrabbit
chest-first into the opposing corner. There is such a
huge impact that Jackrabbit stumbles backwards as he is
propelled towards the middle of the ring, and therefore
Kid Dynamo; who wraps both arms around the midsection of
his opponent, cinching in a reverse waist lock. At first
The Jackrabbit is keen to what is happening and delivers
a back elbow shot with his right arm, followed by an
exact duplicate of that strike except with his left elbow
now. Somehow Kid Dynamo manages to keep the waist lock
intact and sensing his chance is fading he pops his hips
and throws Jackrabbit over his head with a release german
suplex. It's hard to believe but even given such little
time to react The Jackrabbit performs a standing backflip
and lands flat on his feet, watching his opponent
collapse to his back after the suplex attempt. Hanging
back JR gets a huge applause from the fans as he waits
for his opponent to get himself back to a standing
position under his own power. As soon as he does
Jackrabbit approaches from behind and butterflies both of
Dynamo's arms behind his back, setting him up in a tiger
suplex position. It's not as tight as he would like it to
be and that allows Kid Dynamo to free his right arm as he
spins to his left and tucks his opponent's left arm
behind his back into a textbook hammerlock submission.
Tugging JR's left wrist towards the sky he wanders around
in a circle followed from behind by Dynamo who keeps the
hold applied, while Jackrabbit tries to figure a way out
of it. Instead what ends up happening is his opponent,
Kid Dynamo, shoves him from behind so that his exposed
left shoulder impacts the top turnbuckle; and the padding
of it offers little to no cushion as he makes contact. As
he stumbles backwards on the heels of his boots The
Jackrabbit is snatched up from behind and lifted into the
air before he even knows what is happening and gets
slammed down upon that bad shoulder, along with the back
of his head, by a pinpoint back drop suplex performed by
Kid Dynamo. As he bounds up to his feet Kid Dynamo stands
over The Jackrabbit, who has coiled both of his hands
over the back of his neck trying to soothe the pain, but
doesn't want to make this moment last. Instead of using
the lull in the action to give himself a breather Kid
Dynamo crouches down to grab two handfuls of JR's hair,
which he uses to peel him off his back and up to his
knees. As he reaches that point KD clasps him into a
front face lock with his right arm and uses it to stand
his opponent back on his feet. Showing off his technical
prowess Kid Dynamo delivers a head and arm suplex,
flipping The Jackrabbit over onto his back; then
immediately turns it into a cross armbreaker submission,
working on the damaged left shoulder joint of his
opponent. The crowd lets out a huge gasp and gets up to
their feet as OWF Official Calvin Mills comes in to check
on The Jackrabbit, asking if he wants to give up. Bobby Shavonie - What a series of moves by
Dynamo! Nick Burst - It's no doubt that when he
gets inside of those ropes, Kid Dynamo is a great
wrestler. Tonight he's living up to that. Bobby Shavonie - You may have to give him
the edge right now, with this submission applied, but
this match has been pretty even don't you think? Nick Burst - Absolutely and I expected
nothing less. It's a big match and they're getting the
crowd into it as we speak. There is no give in The Jackrabbit as he
rolls up onto his damaged left shoulder, reaching his
right hand forward to clasp hands with his left. Using
that, digging deep through the pain, he manages to get up
to his knees while Kid Dynamo keeps the remnants of the
cross armbreaker applied. From his knees The Jackrabbit
stands up to his feet and keeps his center of gravity low
so that he can hoist the entire weight of his opponent up
into the air, just to slam him right down to his back
with a variation of a powerbomb; and it does the trick to
release him from the submission. Shaking his arm to get
some feeling back into it The Jackrabbit carefully crawls
away from Kid Dynamo, glancing over his shoulder to check
on his progress while remaining on his hands and knees.
When he notices Dynamo hasn't moved a muscle since the
powerbomb he gains his second wind and stands up with the
fans completely on his side as he heads towards the
nearest corner; where he starts to climb up to the top
rope with his back to the ring. The sold-out crowd gets
louder and louder with every step The Jackrabbit takes as
he makes his way to the top ring cable. He balances
himself there and takes one last look at the position of
Kid Dynamo before backflipping off the top rope;
performing a beautiful moonsault upon the chest cavity of
his opponent in the middle of the ring. The power of the
fall sends Jackrabbit flopping to his back right next to
his opponent, unable to complete the lateral press off
the aerial assault. Bobby Shavonie - Laughing Matter on Dynamo!
What a display from The Jackrabbit! Nick Burst - He needs to stay on Kid Dynamo
though. Pin him or pick him up for something else,
because that fucker isn't going to give up until the
match is over. He's shown that, as has Jackrabbit. Bobby Shavonie - Indeed. They've traded
holds, beaten the tar out of one another and tried to
deliver some momentum shifting moves and now finally it
looks like it's coming to catch up with them. Nick Burst - That's natural. They busted
their asses and now it's up to who makes the least
mistakes; and who can capitalize off those said mistakes. Bobby Shavonie - That's what happens when
you have an evenly matched contest like this, with two
men who desperately want the victory over the other. Nick Burst - Can't disagree there. There is a huge round of applause for both
men, and this match, as the fans are all on their feet if
they weren't already. They stare at the ring which has
Kid Dynamo and The Jackrabbit laid out next to one
another, both showing signs of life as the referee for
this match, Calvin Mills, refrains from counting the two
men down to let them have it out. With both of his arms
across his stomach The Jackrabbit rolls onto his left
side and eventually up to his knees, finally catching his
breath after the huge fall from the top rope while Kid
Dynamo is trying to sit himself up but his upper body is
failing him. As Jackrabbit stands to his feet he stays
close to his opponent but lets KD expend as much energy
needed to get back upright, no matter how long it takes.
All in all it takes about five more seconds for Kid
Dynamo to stand up and when he does he is met with a
right handed slap to the face from his opponent, followed
by a smack from the left hand of JR; as he now spins
around in a circle whirling his fingers in the air. When
he turns around ready to complete the Slap Happy
combination of slaps he is met with a right forearm shiv
to the jaw, snapping his head backwards and dropping The
Jackrabbit to a knee. Like a shark smelling blood in the
water Kid Dynamo comes in and goes for the shining
enziguri but when he kicks his right leg towards JR's
face it is caught under the left armpit of his opponent;
who bursts up to his feet. As quick as he can The
Jackrabbit tosses the right leg of his opponent to his
right, spinning Dynamo around a full rotation, and
decking him with an open handed slap to the face with his
right hand once KD is square to him once again. The crowd
pops as Slap Happy, or a delayed version of it, is
complete; but they get nervous when The Jackrabbit heads
back towards one of the corners, climbing towards the top
rope from inside of the ring. He eventually stands
himself up on the top rope, his back to the ring,
readying for another moonsault; but he never gets the
chance to pull it off as Kid Dynamo comes up to a
standing position, only to shove the legs of his opponent
apart. The Jackrabbit ends up crotched on the top
turnbuckle facing the crowd, unable to do anything as his
opponent carefully ascends the ropes behind JR; making
sure to duck his head under Jackrabbit's right arm as
Dynamo gets to the second rope. Wrapping both of his arms
around the waist of his opponent KD lifts JR up to a
standing position on the top rope and joins him there a
second later, preparing him for a top rope back drop
suplex. As Kid Dynamo falls backwards he lifts The
Jackrabbit into the air but JR counters, rotating the
weight of his body so he can spin around and land on top
of Dynamo's chest with a top rope splash of sorts; but
doesn't bother to hook a leg. OWF Referee Calvin Mills
slides in and counts. 1... 2... Dynamo kicks
both of his legs into the air and summons the strength to
get up to his knees holding The Jackrabbit horizontally
across his chest in a fallaway slam position. Moving up
to his feet he keeps JR there only to swing him away from
his body, and deliver a backbreaker across his bent left
knee by dropping down to his right. Falling down to the
mat The Jackrabbit favors his back in a good amount of
pain while Kid Dynamo rises up, arrogantly calling for
his opponent to join him. There's no way The Jackrabbit can get up
that fast but that doesn't stop him from trying his
hardest as he rolls onto his stomach, keeping as much
pressure off his back as possible. Seating himself up on
his rear, with his back to his opponent, Jackrabbit
readies himself to get up to his feet when he is met with
a stunning shin kick flush across his spine; keeping him
exactly where he sits now. Carrying his momentum forward
Kid Dynamo rushes to the set of ring cables JR is seated
facing and nails him with a shin kick across the chest,
flattening Jackrabbit flat to his back. Quick to stay on
top of him KD rolls his opponent over onto his stomach,
then kneels down on the small of his back with both
knees. Crossing JR's legs over with his right arm, and
hooking his left hand under Jackrabbit's chin; Kid Dynamo
rolls to his back, bending The Jackrabbit backwards over
his knees in a bow and arrow submission. The referee
moves in to check on the condition of The Jackrabbit as
he is trapped pretty tightly by Dynamo; who isn't budging
an inch. Wiggling his legs as much as he possibly can
somehow JR manages to uncross his feet, and backflips out
of the submission; planting the soles of both boots on
the canvas as he ends up standing over Dynamo. Dealing
with the pain in his back The Jackrabbit hesitates and
that brief moment allows Kid Dynamo to sit upright,
preparing to stand himself up. Unfortunately for him his
opponent has other plans as Jackrabbit brings his right
knee cap forward between the shoulder blades of Dynamo,
then remains on that knee to deliver downward elbow
strikes with his right and then his left arm; directed to
either side of Kid Dynamo's head and neck. Suddenly
finding himself in control now, The Jackrabbit stands up
to his feet with the crowd cheering him on as he uses
both hands to lift Kid Dynamo up a moment or two later.
From behind he shoves Dynamo chest-first into the ropes
but KD violently spins around to face The Jackrabbit; and
the two men knock heads. Dynamo is sent right down to the
mat but JR is knocked backwards; his elbow catching OWF
Referee Calvin Mills right upon his face, being knocked
unconscious. Nick Burst - Oh shit... Referee is down! Bobby Shavonie - And he's bleeding!
Jackrabbit didn't mean to hit him! Nick Burst - Perfect timing for The
Movement to come down and get involved, I bet... Bobby Shavonie - Well now you probably
jinxed it. The Jackrabbit regains his senses and
immediately walks over to Mills, trying to pick him up
but it's no use. He has a look of regret in his eyes
which soon fades away as he lays them back on Kid Dynamo,
who has his right hand on his forehead as he tries to
stand up under his own power. Stepping in JR helps KD to
his feet and immediately pushes him backwards into the
nearest corner; where he peppers away at his chest with
rapid middle kicks. Slowly Jackrabbit works Dynamo down
to a seat in the corner where the kicks from JR now turn
into stomps, with no official there to back him off. He
really gets an advantage on Kid Dynamo then resorts to
lifting him back up and isolating his right arm, managing
to irish whip his opponent all the way across the ring.
As soon as he releases KD, The Jackrabbit runs across the
ring right behind him; ready to crush Dynamo as soon as
he turns around. A second later he does so that his back
can absorb the impact of the padded turnbuckles and in
that moment Kid Dynamo uses it to burst forward, leveling
Jackrabbit with a rebound clothesline that sends both men
to the mat with an extreme amount of force upon
collision. First to his feet is Dynamo who heads to the
ropes to keep his balance as he keeps a careful watch on
The Jackrabbit as he sits himself up, holding his chest
as he tries to catch his breath. Seeing an opportunity KD
moves in to grab The Jackrabbit by his hair and uses that
to stand him up, held in a front face lock which Kid
Dynamo uses to bring a stunning right knee into the
sternum of his opponent; making it even harder to
breathe. Allowing the immediate release of his opponent
Kid Dynamo follows it up with a sharp knife edge chop to
the chest of The Jackrabbit, knocking him back a step. A
second chop also finds it's mark upon JR's chest as he
takes a second step back, but immediately makes it up
with a left forearm shiv to Dynamo's face; whipping his
head backwards as he nearly loses his balance. Doing
whatever he can to keep this advantage The Jackrabbit
closes the distance between himself and his opponent to
deliver another left forearm strike, this one even
harder, and it knocks Kid Dynamo back-first into the
ropes. Using the spring of them Dynamo comes at JR with
his right arm cocked back behind his head, but completely
misses his haymaker attempt; so badly, in fact, that
Jackrabbit is able to dip around behind Dynamo and sets
him up for a back drop suplex. The second JR tries to
hoist KD up he is met with a series of three downward
elbow shots to the back of his head, facilitating the
clean release of Kid Dynamo all while the referee is
still face down on the mat just feet away from the
action. Kid Dynamo bends over with The Jackrabbit
right behind him so that he can catch his breath and then
willingly sprints off towards the ring cables, turning so
that his back can bounce off of them. He does so and
comes back towards his dazed opponent, who sees KD
preparing for a clothesline, and hooks his arm to float
over and around; trapping Dynamo in a front face lock
now, but he is unable to keep it held as Kid Dynamo
swings out of it keeping a hold of JR's left arm. He
pulls him in for a shortarmed clothesline attempt but for
the second time in the match the two men unwillingly
headbutt one another; and this time they both collapse
right down to their knees right in front of one another.
They are knocked loopy and barely register that they are
so close as both Dynamo and Jackrabbit are off in their
own worlds trying to stay in this contest which has taken
a lot out of them. Jackrabbit regains a sense of his
surroundings first and catches Dynamo with weak elbow
strike to his right cheek bone, sending him back a bit
but all it really serves to do is wake up KD as he
retaliates with a left jab; followed by a right hook,
both to the face of his opponent. Giving himself a little
bit of a breather Kid Dynamo starts preparing to stand up
but gets caught with a closed fist from The Jackrabbit
that is driven right under his sternum, allowing JR to
step up to meet him along the way. The two men rise up to their feet facing
one another, as OWF Referee Calvin Mills finally starts
to stir and gets up to his hands and knees; shaking his
head from side to side. Coming in Kid Dynamo steps up
onto the back of the referee with his left foot and kicks
his right foot up; catching The Jackrabbit with the
shining enziguri with the help of the referee. Bobby Shavonie - Bad Luck Charm! Out of
nowhere! Kid Dynamo collapses on top of The
Jackrabbit, hooking both of his legs as tightly as
possible in the view of Calvin Mills; who remains on all
fours to administer the count. 1... 2... 3! Missy Janson - The winner of this match...
KIIIID DYYYYNAMO! Nick Burst - Wow. Bobby Shavonie - What a match, and what a
finish! Kid Dynamo pops up and exits the ring in a
flash, looking for nothing out of the referee as he holds
his hands high in the air to a chorus of boo's. Nick Burst - Man The Jackrabbit is NOT
going to be happy about that. How in the hell can you
count that fall if you're Mills, after a great match like
that? Bobby Shavonie - I don't think he realized
that he was used as an assistant by Kid Dynamo on the Bad
Luck Charm. He got knocked for a loop there. Nick Burst - That better be the case... I
wasn't alone in enjoying the bout that JR and KD were
having. Bobby Shavonie - They brought out the best
in one another and regardless of how it ended, Kid Dynamo
picks up the victory. Nick Burst - Ugh. I can't say he didn't
deserve it because he was great tonight. But The
Jackrabbit may not have been beaten if the referee didn't
get knocked down in the first place. The Jackrabbit rolls off of his back and
gets up to all fours, digging his head into the mat where
he cups both of his hands around the back of his head to
deal with the pain. The cameras follow Kid Dynamo as he
heads up the ramp soaking in the hatred from the crowd
around him. Bobby Shavonie - You can talk about if's
and but's, bottom line is that both guys had a shot to
win and Dynamo did it. Nick Burst - I guess you're right... As Dynamo reaches the stage, "Shout at
the Devil" by Mötley Crüe hits and EJ Slayer
steps out onto the walkway, a microphone already prepped
in his hand. Dynamo gives him a steely glare and mouths
"I’m done here" at him before pushing
past. EJ remains on the ramp, only turning his back on
Dynamo when he has passed completely. Now he stares down
to the ring, where Jackrabbit is still on his knees,
nursing his head. EJ Slayer - Well well well, there is a
shocker, the jester-in-shining-armor falls off his horse
and lands on his face. How many times do you need to fail
before reality sinks in Jackrabbit? How long will this go
on before the obvious staring you in the face becomes
clear to you? The audience breaks out into violent boos,
and begins throwing their trash at Slayer- always coming
up short, however. EJ Slayer - The same typical
shortsightedness that has plagued this company for years.
The fans cheer you when you came out on top against Eva.
They cheer you as you took on that has-been Kid Dynamo.
They don't stop to realize that I'm responsible for all
of this. They don't realize that I was the one that had
you take on Eva, that I was the one that called for you
to face Kid Dynamo. They don't realize that this
befuddled fool in the ring has been doing all of my dirty
work, and they have applauded you for it. Take a bow,
Jackrabbit, you played the part of Jesse Williams to my
Zack Perry perfectly. Jackrabbit doesn’t look angry, and
doesn’t look deflated. A blank stare crosses the
distance between the two. EJ Slayer - The saddest part of this is
that none of this ever clicked in the brain of The
Jackrabbit. He never stopped to think about the fact that
Eva de la Cruz never did anything to him before he
attacked her. Never considered the fact that Kid Dynamo
likely never would've even realized who The Jackrabbit
was had he not been talked into jumping him. No, like all
the other sycophants that populate this company, The
Jackrabbit gleefully did whatever it was that I convinced
him to do, simply because he felt it would get him that
much closer to that brass ring, that much closer to the
empty praise and shallow glory that the fans and
powers-that-be in this company would grant him, and he
can't even succeed in doing anything but sit stuck in his
own mediocrity. Go on Jackrabbit, get yourself a
microphone, tell the world how predictable you are. As if on cue, Jackrabbit grabs the mic from
Missy, finally a look of rage in his eyes. Slayer simply
laughs at the continued predictability, a complete look
of disinterest on his face as Jackrabbit starts to speak. The Jackrabbit - I told Eva.. I told
Dynamo.. and I’s telling you, and all your whackball
Movement buddies. I spent too long being beaten and
battered, too long being double-teamed and triple-teamed
and too long being overlooked and under-booked! A "Rabbit! Rabbit! Rabbit!" chant
breaks out in the crowd, which seems to instil even more
confidence in Jackrabbit stood in the ring. The Jackrabbit - Jackrabbit is
nobody’s victim anymore! So how’s bout you come
on down here and I’s show you what I mean!! EJ begins to storm towards the ring, and
the crowd explodes in premature cheers at the prospect of
Jackrabbit and Slayer going toe-to-toe. But EJ stops at
the bottom of the ramp, laughing once more and spinning
on his heels. He keeps his back to Jackrabbit as he
marches back up the ramp, an arm held out wide as the
cheers turn to damning boos. EJ Slayer - Unlike you, Jackrabbit, I am my
own man. I don't allow myself to be manipulated by these
fans, or Zack Perry, or anyone. You say you aren't a
victim, but the fact of the matter is the only people
that aren't victims in this company are part of The
Movement. We all realize that we aren't slaves to empty
promises and hollow cheers. There won't be any
retribution for you or for your fans. You made yourself a
victim and an example of everything wrong in this
business, and you get to spend the rest of your career
thinking about how you are nothing more than a puppet and
it has cost you at every turn. "Shout at the Devil" hits the
speakers once more and EJ disappears being the curtain,
leaving an enraged Jackrabbit in the ring, kicking the
ring ropes and slamming the microphone out to ringside.
The cameras immediately cut to the commentary table where
Nick Burst is seen pouring himself another glass of
scotch. Bobby Shavonie - You have nothing to say,
Nick? You're just going to drink? Nick Burst - No I'm rewarding myself for
staying silent through all of that shit, as we got EJ
Slayer on a Pay Per View that he isn't booked for. I
deserve this drink for that. Bobby Shavonie - You don't even want to say
anything about The Jackrabbit? Nick lifts the glass up to his lips and
takes a generous sip, then places the glass down on the
commentary table. Nick Burst - Oh it's going to be great when
The Jackrabbit finally gets his hands on EJ Slayer.
Conversely it's going to be fucking horrible when he
becomes brainwashed into joining The Movement. Bobby Shavonie - Those are two opposite
sides of the spectrum, Nick, and I think Jackrabbit made
his intentions clear tonight. He wants Slayer. Nick Burst - Then just go back there and
find him. Beat the shit out of him back there. It's just
as rewarding. Bobby Shavonie - I don't know about that.
If I was Jackrabbit coming off a hard fought loss to
Dynamo, the last thing I'd want to do is go against EJ
Slayer and The Movement; all of whom haven't lifted a
finger inside of the ring tonight yet. Nick Burst - True. That's a good point. So
then next Addiction, I think it's March 7th. Do it then. Bobby Shavonie - Oh come on Nick. EJ and JR
dealing with one another isn't a new thing. Don't you
think if The Jackrabbit was going to get at EJ Slayer
backstage he would have done it already? Nick Burst - Maybe. But tonight could have
pushed him over the edge. Fuck. It would have pushed me
over the edge. Bobby Shavonie - This is a sport of
emotions. If The Jackrabbit loses sense of himself, then
he might as well sign up to join The Movement. Nick Burst - But... Bobby Shavonie - Look at Jesse Williams. He
didn't harm Zack Perry and you wanted him to, yet it got
Zack lost; didn't it? Nick Burst - Yeah and... Bobby Shavonie - So maybe The Jackrabbit
can get rid of EJ Slayer by playing his game, for now.
You ever think of that? Nick Burst - Bobby you're pressing me too
hard. You're right, okay... Just chill out. I get what
you're saying. Bobby Shavonie - Good. That's all I was
trying to do, just conveying my point.
