(A blinding while light emanates from the NEW-Tron and "Awake" by Godsmack begins to play in the arena. After about twenty seconds, the white light from the NEW-Tron begins to flash in timing with the guitar beats.)

Brian: Guess who's back!!!

Jason: After a couple weeks absence, it looks like we are about to "graced" with the presence of the NEW Commissioner, Diamond Mine.

"Wait another minute, can't you see what this thing has fucking done to me? I'm alive and still kickin', what you see I can't see and maybe you'll think before you speak. I'm alive, for you I'm awake, because of you I'm alive, told you I'm awake, swollowing you...."

(The white light stops flashing and standing in the entrance way is Diamond Mine and the crowd is booing him out of the building. Diamond Mine has on a black Armani suit and he has a smirk on his face as he looks around at the crowd. He stands in the entrance way to soak in the crowds hatred for him and then slowly makes his way to the ring, brushing off the fans.)

"....Take another second, turn your back on me and make believe that your always happy. It's safe to say you're never alive, a big part of you has died and by the way, I hope your satisfied. I'm alive, for you I'm awake, because of you I'm alive, told you I'm awake, swollowing you. I'm alive, for you I'm awake, because of you I'm alive, told you I'm awake...."

(Diamond Mine makes his way to ringside and slowly makes his way up the ringsteps. He looks around at the audience and just laughs off their boo's. He enters the ring and heads right over to Jack Darling and grabs a microphone and begins to speak.)

Diamond Mine: It's good to see that things don't ever change around here. Even after a two week absence, you still have as much hatred for me as you ever did, and I thank you for that.

(Diamond Mine smiles as the crowds lays into the Commish with another chorus of boo's.)

Diamond Mine: Now I know that many of you are wondering where I have been??? What have I been doing??? After all, I said that I was here to ensure that everything went as it was supposed to do, and after Rebirth, there have been some questions raised. Well allow me to set the record straight right here, right now!!! Not once did I ever say that Deadman or Thanatos were going to lose, did I??? I have always said that I am here to ensure that everything goes the way C.E.O. Abark and I have planned it to go down. So you say Thanatos and Deadman screwed up our plans, I say everything is right as it should be.

(Diamond Mine begins to laugh and then continues.)

Diamond Mine: Now think about it for a moment won't you. Thanatos needs to look strong heading into his NeWA World Heavyweight Championship match at the end of the month. After all, he is representing New England Wrestling.

(The crowd cheers for Thanatos.)

Diamond Mine: So of course we want Thanatos heading into his title shot on a winning streak. Not to say we didn't want to make Thanny "earn" the victory. And as for Deadman, well, we do want New England Wrestling to be well represented, he is the "flagship" right now for the company.

(The crowd cheers for Deadman.)

Diamond Mine: And as good as Joseph Rival may be, it just was not his time at Rebirth. So everything is going exactly as it was supposed to.............

(Crowd cheers as the voice of Thanatos cuts off Diamond Mine midsentence.)

Thanatos: Whoa there hoss. You come back and ramble about me and Deadman not being targeted as you led people to believe...but that holds as much water as Blackbird making excuses about why he lost. It was apparent to anyone that was there live in the arena or watched it on Pay Per View that you and Abark planned for us to fail. Abark couldn't do the job that he intended on doing with making sure I didn't get the belt, but his plan backfired on him. They saw Death Incarnate stepping towards that ring and those who were longtime fans will remember like I mentioned before about the last time I saw him. You were in that arena the night Death came and laid me out for not including him in our lineup of Horsemen. Those looks of hate were genuine despite what Blackbird would think...and all of your plans failed when he finally buried the hatchet. Maybe one day he can return to the fold, but for now we will do honor to the group I have fought hard to protect. Face it Diamond Mine, you failed and now you want to take credit for our success.

(Fans cheer as the picture goes to the Jumbotron and there's Thanatos sitting back in a comfortable chair in his locker room. Joey Rival comes onscreen with a glass with the Guinness logo and filled to the brim with its dark goodness.)

Thanatos: Thanks, beer bitch. Now get down there and be a footrest. There's a good boy.

(Joey curses under his breath as he gets on his hands and knees before Thanatos rests his huge feet on Joey's back. Picture goes back to Thanatos sitting there smiling and he takes a drink.)

Thanatos: Now back to business. Everyone here in the Providence Civic Center knows that I don't need help looking strong going into the big match with Trent Shanahan at our next Pay Per View. Me and Deadman are the only talent NEW has that can unseat Trent Shanahan, and it isn't even assured that it will go one way or the other with him. Here in NEW, I'm already hearing that C.E.O. Abark is getting ready to start a recruitment campaign to bring in people to take my belt away. How's that for a sign that nobody in NEW can defeat the Horsemen? I won't lie and say we wouldn't do better with Pagan, but his spot will remain open until that glorious day when he returns to the fold.

(Crowd cheers loudly as Thanatos pauses, raises his glass and then takes another drink.)

Thanatos: But you, Diamond Mine, you have tried your hardest to do what Abark wills and there will be no reprieve for a betrayer such as yourself. At this upcoming Pay Per View, I will deal with Trent Shanahan, and then you will be the next on my agenda. A higher calling to take a more prestigious title rates a bit higher than dealing with you, but your day of reckoning is fast approaching. Prepare your soul for the end, Diamond Mine. So let it be written, so let it be done. None shall stand in my way!!!

(Back in the ring, the NEW Commish has a scornfull look on his face as he talks once again.)

Diamond Mine: So let it be written, so let it be done. None shall stand in you way???? Hold the phone Thanatos. You've never been able to stop me in the past, you won't be able to stop me now, but you keep holding on to your little dream of yours there. But I do have one question for you, and I don't want an answer right now. I want you to actually think about this one Thanatos. You've got your Druids all around you, you love to play mind games, my question to you is simple, do you believe in Black Magic????

(On the Jumbotron, Thanatos sits in his chair, appearing not to be concerned. Diamond Mine sees this and says one last thing.)

Diamond Mine: Whether you do, or whether you don't! It doesn't matter, because I promise you this, it will be your undoing!!!!

("Awake" by Godsmack blasts in the arena as the NEW Commish leaves the ring and heads back to his office backstage.)

Jason: Now with that out of the way, let's get on with the show....Tonight we're going to see our new Tag Team Champions crowned. Earlier this week we had several untelevised shows where we narrowed down the field from 16 participants, to 8. First let's see some footage from the first of the four matches....The Strip being teamed with one of his arch nemesis', Harbinger to take on the team of Blackbird 13 and Chris Evans.....

(Scene cuts to earlier that week...)

Jason: STRIP charges at Blackbird 13 � LEANING TOWER!!!! But Harbinger already tagged in. With both of their partners out of the ring, it's just these two, who had that classic draw last week.

Brian : A staredown of the ugliest men in this sport!

Jason: The two rush each other, throwing punches � this is insane, neither man giving any ground!

(--- then later ---)

Jason: Chris Evans from the top rope FLYINGCROSS BODY, NO, STRIP pulls Harbinger in front of Evans. Evans hits the wrong man. Harby and Evans are down, along with Blackbird outside. STRIP climbs on Evans' back, he's got the Dragon Sleeper hooked on!! Evans is tapping � after all that wearing down, Evans is tapping!

Brian: Strip and Harbinger move on to the next round.

(The scene comes back to the show....The NEW Jumbo Tron flickers to life in the Horsemen's locker room area where Thanatos sits at ease in his snug black leather upholstered chair, with his hands linked behind his head, and his legs crossed afar his body. With the night off, Thanatos' fashion sense is driven for comfort: the usual black jean shirt, black jeans and the big black boots of doooooooom. Rested nimbly on his stomach is his North Eastern Championship that catches the light from the room's ceiling, sparkling upon every shift of the camera's lens.)

(The camera pivots towards the doorway of the room where the tattooed arm of the longest reigning N.E.W. Heavyweight Champion traps Joseph. The camera tries to sneak into the illegible whispers of slavered instructions to the ear of Deadman's former apprentice� turned wench, and it is obvious by the look on Joseph's face that Deadman's orders are awkward and uncomfortable tasks.

Deadman raises his brows, pulling Joseph's ear away from his mouth and invites him to respond to his commands.)

Deadman: Got it?

(Joseph nods reluctantly, and Deadman snakes his arm off of Joseph's shoulder before cuffing him harshly on his back with an open palm.)

Deadman: Now go� I need to get those measurements for a nice tux. I'm sure he'll want to be dressed well for his forthcoming funeral.

Jason: What does he mean by THAT??

Brian: I don't know, but I guess we'll find out�.

Thanatos (yelling): Get us a couple pitchers of Guinness - on tap, while you're at it, Jo-Jo!

(Joseph shrugs abrasively and casts an evil eye behind him as he exits the room. The scene comes back to the announcers booth....)

Jason: Earlier this week we also saw three other quarter-final matches....We saw the team of Harley Clarkson and Hero, taking on the abnormal team of Rad Brad and Death Jester....After a hard fought match it seemed the experience of the veteran team of Clarkson and Hero was too much for Brad and Jester.

Brian: Brad and Jester don't know how much of a joke they really are!

Jason: The next match was a strange one indeed....Genesis, who's had a hard time getting a foothold here since joining N.E.W. picked up his first win along side the enormous Omen when they defeated the team of Simon Tyrell and Nightstalker....Yes, I know what you're thinking....One in the same? But it seems the seperation between the two grows every time he appears....Simon came down to the ring that night with a teeshirt, a Nightstalker shirt...Before the match he hung it from the turnbuckle and began to wrestle against Genesis and Omen. Every time Omen and Genesis seemed to be getting the better of Simon, he tagged his shirt, and seemed to get a second wind......It begame apparant that the seperation in his mind had grown to the point of his body knowing the difference....But eventually the beating took it's toll, and he was pinned after the Final Breath by The Omen.

Brian: COO COO!!! COO COO!!!

Jason: When that was said and done, we then saw Prince Muhammed and Joseph Rival taking on Predator and Carl Knox. This was probably the closest match of the four, and Predator and Knox seemed to have it in the bag....That was until Predator left Knox in the ring, and made his way backstage....It didn't take long for Prince Muhammed and Joseph Rival to close the deal and move onto the next round....This is how the brackets look so far....

Harley Clarkson & Hero

(The NEW Jumbo Tron comes to life, and the scene opens on an empty hallway with a few crewmembers scattered about, a couple at a corner where the end of the corridor ends.)

Jason: What's this now? Our cameras are backstage here�.

(Suddenly Joseph comes into the picture and approaches the two crew members at the corner, looking anxiously over his shoulder.)

Joseph: Uh, hi�. Where's Strip's locker room?

(One of the crewmembers; the one with the rather distinct mustache points down the hall, behind Joseph.)

Crewmember: You should find it that a way, a few doors down with a big star on the front.

(The second crewmember; the one that is slightly overweight with a husky voice, nods.)

Crewmember 2: Yeah, should say "Strip" right on the front of it.

(Joseph nods earnestly, and turns around waving his hand at them as the scene fades to black.)

Jason: Uh-oh� Deadman said something about "measurements" to Joseph. Do ya think Brian, he was talking about Strip??

Brian: Well Jason, Strip did lay out the challenge to Deadman quite palpably last week�. I think Deadman wants to make sure he has a nice tux for his funeral� After all, that's what he was asking for when he challenged Deadman, wouldn't cha think?

(The arena lights fade to black, causing the audience to go into silence. A blanket of smoke erupted from the stage, concealing it completely. Television static was heard over the PA accompanied by a picture of a dead channel on the Jumbotron. This went on for a few seconds before switching to a zoomed effect of a young dark haired woman. The clip switched to a man in what seem like hardcore matches. The clips flashed too quickly, not allowing the N.E.W. fans to quite make out what they were seeing. The only thing anyone could make out was that every match clip seemed to feature weapons, giving the effect that the fighter seemed to either like hardcore matches or have some sort of specialty with them. ) (The clips quickly switches back to a wide shot of the dark haired woman. This clip was slowed down, allowing the audience to take in the woman�s beauty. Long black, slick hair, long legs, slim waist and a petite body. The super-model-like body was covered in blue jeans that hung low on her hips, black Doc Martins Boots, a white T-shirt with a low hem and a white leather duster. ) (The camera did a fast dolly in towards the woman, stopping at a close up shot of her face revealing her full red lips and deep gray eyes. �Seven days�.� Was all she said as the scene faded to black. The name Alisynien was shown in blood red script followed by the sentence �Arriving�in Seven Days�.� The arena lights fade back to life as the smoke quickly dissipates.) (The attention of the fans is once again directed towards the NEW Jumbo Tron and Joseph has finally approached the locker room of the Strip.)

Jason: Uh-Oh Brian, there he is�

Brian: Shh� be quiet, you'll blow his cover!

(Joseph raises a closed fist at the door, about to knock, but prompts himself, and instead looks over his shoulder before turning the doorknob and sneaking quietly inside. He leaves the door open a crack to make certain of a quick escape, and just as he slips inside, the scene fades to black.)

Jason: Now ladies and gentleman, the results of the Semi-Final matches we had earlier this evening, here's some highlights of Strip and Harbinger versus Genesis and The Omen....

(Scene cuts to earlier in that night...)

Sara: I don't know how they're doing it, but STRIP and Harbinger have come to blows a few times over STRIP's tactics, and they are still battling Omen and Genesis.

Brian: Well, won't be for long.

Jason: Omen with the FINAL BREATH on STRIP. Ohhh and Genesis, setting up for the Springboard Moonsault � Harbinger pulls down the top rope, Genesis down to the floor. Omen hooks the leg on STRIP.

ONE

TWO

kickout by STRIP!

Sara: Genesis is getting up slowly. STRIP tags Harbinger, he clotheslines Omen!

Jason: Harbinger with the PRECURSOR!!!! STRIP dives onto Genesis and takes him down. Harbinger with the FORESHADOWING. The big man is struggling. He's tapping, Omen is tapping.

Brian: Harbinger lets go, his hands raised. STRIP is back in the ring OHHHHH kick to Omen's face.

Sara: That was not called for.

Jason: Totally uncalled for, Harbinger pushes STRIP, he doesn't look happy.

Brian: But they are going to the finals, and that's what matters.

(As we come back to the arena the NEW Jumbo Tron once again comes to life, and the patrons join Joseph inside the locker room of Strip. He finds a black gym bag and digs his hands inside to see what he can find.)

Joseph: *muttering under his breath* That stupid no good Deadman and Thanatos getting me to do their dirty work�. Bitches� *Louder* Let's see what we have here�

Jason: Oh Lord�

(Joseph stops midst his frantic rummaging when seemingly finds something.)

Brian: Shh� I think he's found just the thing Deadman needs� now verrrrry verrrry quiet�

(Joseph holds up his findings and widens his eyes with repulsion as he stares at a pair of sharkskin underwear.)

Brian: AAAH!!!! SHARKSKIN UNDERWEAR!!! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

(Joseph jumps and throws the undergarments on the lens of the camera as he hears a voice from behind him.)

Strip: WHAT IN THE DEEP WATERS OF HELL ARE YOU DOING???????

(Joseph turns, about to explain himself, but Strip disallows him as he spears him into a set of lockers with his fists flailing at Joseph's head.)

Jason: OH MY!!!! STRIP has lost it!! He's going insane on Joseph!!!

Brian: BWAHAHAHA!!!! SHARKSKIN UNDERWEAR!!!

(Strip sprawls Joseph across the bench and dismounts him, kicking him in the head once more for good measure before grabbing a hold of Joseph's clothing and angrily heaving him back to the floor.)

Jason: OH! And Strip now heaving Joseph to the cold tiles of the locker room!!

(Joseph rolls to his stomach and attempts to leave, but Strip lends him a hand and throws him into the hallway, to ensure an added bit of punishment on his way out.)

Strip: And STAY OUT!

(Strip promptly slams the door legibly behind him.)

Jason: Speaking of Rival...Lets see a clip of his match along with Muhammed, against Hero and Harley Clarkson....

(Scene cuts to earlier in the evening...)

Jason: Prince Muhammed and Joseph Rival have been tagging well. Hero whips Rival across the ring. Muhammed tags as Rival rebounds. Hero goes for the boot and misses, Rival grabs the ropes and MUHAMMED with a CLOTHESLINE to Hero's medulla oblongata area .. the back of his head.

ONE

TWO

Harley breaks it up!

(----and in the end.---)

Brian: Muhammed with a great chop on Hero, drives Hero back into his own corner.

Jason: Hero tags Harley and clotheslines Muhammed from the corner OUT OF NOWHERE! Muhammed is down.

Sara: Rival starts into the ring, he ducks another Hero clothesline, bounces off the ropes � Reegan grabs Rival and pulls him out of the ring!

Brian: Is Diamond Joe BLIND?

Jason: Muhammed in the center of the ring � THUNDERSTRUCK.

Brian: Yaa aaa aaa aaa a

Jason: and now THE HAMMER � Muhammed is down, Rival is preoccupied with Reegan.

THREEE

Sara: And on to the finals, the former NEW champ and Justice INC.

(The scene comes back to the arena..)

Jason: So lets now see the brackets as they stand now...

(The scene switches back to Thanatos and Deadman who are sitting in their big comfy chairs, still awaiting some cold beer straight from the tap.)

Thanatos: I wonder what's taking Jo-Jo so long with our cold mugs of Guinness�

(Deadman turns to Thanatos and shrugs.)

Deadman: For all I know he could be down Strip's pants�

(The two of them frown at each other with wide eyes, shake their heads and shudder with the crowd laughing in the background. Moments later Joseph stumbles into the Horsemen's locker room, tired and beaten, with a two mugs of Guinness in one hand, and a jug in the other.)

Joseph: You sons of bitches!

(The two Horsemen look at one another and chuckle at Joey's demise. Deadman snatches the jug from Joseph and places it on the coffee table in front of him.)

Deadman: I'll take those�

(He takes the two mugs from Joseph and passes one of them over to Thanatos. The two of them clink glasses in front of the frowning and exhausted Joseph take a much anticipated guzzle of their beers. Deadman lets out a sigh and raises his brows at Joseph with inquiry.)

Deadman: Did you get what I asked for??

(Joseph seems to tense up and breaths heavily.)

Deadman: Anger, my brother� you must control it! Ha ha ha ha�.

Joseph: You're a real asshole, you know that?

(Deadman turns to Thanatos and takes another sip of his freshly poured Guinness.)

Deadman: What punishment do you have in store for Joseph, considering he neglected to complete his supplementary task, huh Thanatos?

Thanatos: Hmmmm�

(Thanatos places his mug on the coffee table in front of him, and stands up, reaching into his back pocket.)

Jason: Ohh boy�.

(At the appointed time, Thanatos pulls out a toothbrush that he obviously retrieved from the Salvation Army, and holds it out to Joseph who crossly receives it.)

Thanatos: To the toilets with you, Jo-Jo�You know the drill�

(Deadman laughs.)

Deadman: And don't forget to brush afterwards�

(Thanatos laughs and picks up his mug.)

Thanatos: Yeah, you can't forget to take care of those pearly whites of yours.

Joseph: YOU SONS OF BITCHES!!!!

(Joseph stomps out of the locker room as the scene fades to black.)

(The camera cuts to the parking lot. There are 3 crosses set up in the middle of it. The camera zooms in to see on one cross is a DWO Shirt, the middle one an Omen shirt on it, and the other has a Horsemen shrit on it. Suddenly Hero, Beth, Reegan, and Nancy walk onto the screen. The four members of Justice Inc. seem verys serious and seem to have something to say.)

Hero: Tonight is a night that shall not ever be forgotten. Tonight is the night that my full plan goes into action. Tonight I win one half of the tag team titles, and then it begins. I finally am able to be in power in the NEW. And with that power I will have earned the NEW boys respect and I will be given more TV time and I will finally be able to spread my message to everyone.

Beth: Finally everyone will be shown the way, the truth, and the light.

Hero: The three crosses behind me represent soemthing special. You see, in Jesus' day people were put on crosses for their sins. And the DWO, the Horsmen, and Omen are the greatest sinners of all. And they all must and will pay for their sins and indiscretions. This is what these crosses and the shirts represent. And who knows before it is all said and done, they may all hang from crosses for real. Then and only then can they truly pay for the sins they have commited. And then maybe then they will realize the errors of their ways and realize just how wrong they are. And that is only when JUSTICE IS SERVED!!!

(The NEW Jumbo Tron ignites to the intent of the audience once again, where Deadman and Thanatos sit from the comfort of two Horsemen sized chairs beside one another. The two of them, seemingly amused by the foregoing matches that stimulated the television screen in front of them, continue to guzzle their brand-name mugs of beer. Deadman sighs his last sip, letting the taste of his Guinness set in his mouth before turning to Thanatos with a smirk.)

Deadman: Looks like they're going into the finals now, eh?

(Thanatos turns to Deadman and swallows his beer.)

Thanatos: Yeah, but those guys have to be taking a deep breath about not having to worry about the true power here in NEW. The champs will have Abark to thank that he safeguarded their belts from the true tag champs.

(Deadman chuckles slightly.)

Deadman: Oh, no doubt. But it just goes to show that the only "turmoil" in this tag team tournament has to do with the fact that the crowned champions after tonight will know that they're only the champions as a statistic, and not as an unmistakable certainty. But you and I both know that we don't need a material reward to define our success. The facts are there: I've been a tag team champion with four different partners here in New England Wrestling, and not once was I defeated for them to change hands. It always had to do with either President Cody or Abark vacating the titles, knowing that they would remain with me otherwise.

(Thanatos raises his glass of Guinness)

Thanatos: So congrats to the winners tonight...and may this eat away at your pathetic souls for as long as you live.

(Thanatos takes a drink and then turns to Deadman)

Thanatos: Anything else, Deadman?

(Deadman takes another sip of his own.)

Deadman: I don't have anything more to say, other than what's already been done, and what will come to be� and if these so-called champions are truly diplomatic to the belts that they wear, then they will defend them against us� next week.

(Deadman smiles and lifts his glass to Thanatos.)

Deadman: What do ya say, Thanatos?

(Thanatos smiles and clinks the glass of Deadman with his own)

Thanatos: I'd say that would be a good idea. But we'll see if they will at least have the balls to go through with it.

Deadman: Then let His sovereignty determine the victor, and may their balls answer our challenge. Ha ha ha ha�.

(The two of them tilt their glasses and drink the last of their Guinness.)

Jason: Now, how did we get to this point? How have we come to within one match of the NEW Tag Team Championships being rewarded to two of NEW's best?

First, Harley Clarkson and Hero defeated NeWA Cruiserweight Champion, Death Jester, and his partner, Rad Brad.

Then, STRIP and Harbinger ended the nights of Blackbird 13 and Chris Evans.

In the second round, Clarkson and Hero beat Prince Muhammed and Joseph Rival

While STRIP and Harbinger beat Omen and Genesis.

Jack Darling: Now, we have come to the final match of the night ---

("I Woke Up This Morning" starts to play as Harley Clarkson steps from behind the curtain.)

Jack Darling: Now coming to the ring, 5 feet 9 inches, the former NEW Heavyweight Champion � Harley 'THE HAMMER' Clarkson.

Jason: This man is five-nine and he's got NEW credentials like nobody else in this tournament, he and Hero are definitely the vets in this match.

Jack Darling: And his tag team partner, accompanied by his entourage � Justice Inc. � here is HERO!

(Hero, Beth, Nancy and Reegan stroll down to the ring)

"Justice Inc. Justice Inc."

Sara: How will the rookies do against these two �

Brian: Umm, five....

Sara: ....veterans?

Sara: Beth and Nancy are looking pretty good here at ringside, though a little less, revealing than they have in the past. Must be part of their religious conversation.

Jason: You mean their conversion?

Sara: That's what I said!

Darling: And now, their opponents � first

("Viva Las Vegas" starts to play as STRIP walks onto the stage � he looks around, confused, but then starts down to the ring.

Darling: His partner, from parts unknown, the NEW International Champion � Harbinger.

(Harbinger comes down to the ring, determined � Hero stares at the International belt as he walks by. STRIP and Harbinger step away from one another. STRIP points into Harbinger's face and Harbinger gets closer, the ref separates them.)

Sara: These two rooks are going against two big time vets and they're fighting one another, too.

Ding Ding

Jason: There's the bell � Harley is starting and � Strip just pushed Harbinger � Strip's starting.

STRIP looks down at Harley and grins and tries to pat his head.

Jason: Harley grabs STRIP's arm, Crippler Crossface � STRIP grabs the bottom rope. Harley releases. Strip rolls out of the ring, right into Reegan, Reegan throws STRIP back in � Harley starts to stomp STRIP's neck. STRIP, looking for a way out, tries to crawl through Harley's legs, but gets caught. Harley drops back onto STRIP's neck, driving his face into the mat with his 250-plus pounds. STRIP is IN TROUBLE already.Harley rolls him over for the pin. One count. Harley is such a cutie.

STRIP pulls himself along the ropes to the corner � Harley right behind him. STRIP is begging Harley not to --- KICK to the face. Harley pulling STRIP up, STRIP is stunned � T-BONE SUPLEX.

Sara: STRIP looks like he's out already.

Jason: Pin attempt for Harley � broken up by Harbinger. STRIP, trying to sit up � he falls back down and rolls out of the ring. he;s stumbling like a drunk � right towards Justice INC.!

Brian: This guy is a joke.

Nancy runs the opposite direction drawing the ref's attention.

Jason: CLOTHESLINE BY REEGAN � STRIP just did a backflip! He's thrown back into the ring. Harley across the ring, makes the tag as he bounces off the ropes � CLOTHESLINE! Hero from the top rope � ELBOW DROP!

KICKOUT

Brian: How can STRIP still be alive?

Sara: He'll need that endurance against Deadman.

Jason: Hero pulls STRIP up, he's going for a suplex. � He has STRIP up, he's stopped, holding STRIP straight up � - AND DOWN � STRIP bouncing like a rag doll. Hero for the cover

ONE

TWO

Harbinger kneedrops Hero to the back of the head, makes the save again, just barely.

Sara: STRIP has brought nothing to this match except a target on his chest.

Jason: Hero up and after Harbinger, who leaves the ring.

Sara: These two had a spectacular match at Rebirth, with Harbinger walking away with the International title. That can't set well with Hero who is engaged in a long staredown.

Jason: Meanwhile, back at the Wayne mansion � STRIP is pulling himself up the ropes, now he's rolling out of the ring. Reegan comes towards him, but the ref stops him. STRIP pounding his chest, egging Reegan on as he backs towards his corner. Pulling himself up onto the ring apron in his corner, he slips through the ropes and tags Harbinger, FINALLY!

Jason; Hero and Harbinger lock up, arm drag by Harbinger, intro an arm bar, Hero slapping at Harbinger's hand - DDTby Harbinger, OUT OF NOWHERE!!!!

Hero kickout at one and a half. Harbinger gets right back on him, front face lock. Harbinger rocks back, THIS IS TURNING INTO A SUBMISSION! Hero kicking his feet trying to free himself. Clarkson kicks Harbinger in the back for the break STRIP, still resting on the ropes on the apron.

Harbinger is back up, but Hero has him �

Whip to the ropes � Hero has Harbinger up for a slam ---RRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrunning across the ring � Power SLAM near Harbinger's corner.

ONE

TWO

THr � kickout by Harbinger!!!!!

Sara: STRIP is still just standing there.

Jason: Harbinger up � he slaps STRIP across the face.

Brian; That's a tag in my books!

Jason; And in Diamond Joe's book. Hero grabs STRIP, pulls him over the top rope, into the ring. STRIP, grabbing his back as he's pulled up by Hero.

Brian: Well, he's lasted longer than Roy Jones Jr. against Tarver.

Jason: Whip by Hero � Hero with the boot up, STRIP ducks, bounces off the --- STRIP falls on his face. Beth holds up her hands, laughing, like it wasn't her doing. Harbinger is yelling at Diamond Joe, pointing at Justice INC.

Brian: Ohhh, Hero tosses STRIP over the top rope while the ref is turned away. Now he's coming over to talk to the ref. These guys should be baddies in my opinion, they do it so well.

Jason: Looked like STRIP landed hard, but where is he? Hero is back, looking over the rope. Diamond Joe is looking for him, he's starting a count towards where he saw STRIP last � if he gets to ten, this match is over.

Nancy and Reegan are taunting Harbinger, counting with the ref. There's nothing --- wait, STRIP, he's behind Beth

Jason: OH MY GAWWWWWWW!!!!!!! STRIP spun Beth around and PUNCHED HER IN THE JAW � she is down, she is down. Nobody was looking. This is CRIMINAL!

STRIP back into the ring as Hero dives out to check on Beth. The fans are booing loudly. Harbinger is yelling at STRIP � things are flying into the ring at STRIP. Justice INC and Harley and Diamond Joe are checking on her.
