24th November 2002

The crowd is loud and chanting “HWA” over and over in the huge city of Rio de Janeiro. This city known for it’s rabid soccer fans has packed itself into the sold out Maracanã Stadium for the first HWA Survival to take place outside the USA. It’s just getting dark for the outside stadium when suddenly “One Armed Scissor” by At The Drive In hits and Grimjack walks out of the tunnel to deafening cheers, the crowd not caring that he likes to be hated, more enjoying the first appearance from an HWA superstar of the night. Grimjack is wearing white cargo shorts, a black Radiohead t-shirt and brown Clarks sandals in the hot weather in Brazil, where it is still summer at this time of year. Grim gets into the ring set up in the middle of the stadium where it’s standing room only on the infield until you get to the packed stands. He pulls out a mic from his back pocket.
Grimjack: Rio de Janeiro! Are you ready for some HWA???
Most of the crowd doesn’t recognize English but it’s quickly translated through the PA system and it’s cheered.
Grimjack: It’s great to be here, the weather is really great, I sure hope it holds up. But you know I have to admit I had some reservations about coming here. There’s a lot of poverty in Brazil. A lot of inflation. You people can’t seem to run your country and you’re always looking to the US for freebies, like relieving your debt to us. What a bunch of bullshit.
The crowd starts booing loudly.
Grimjack: I was walking down the street earlier today, going to the shop and what not, and I saw a homeless man relieving himself too, all over my new shoes I had just bought. Needless to say I broke his neck and pissed in his face, and then stuffed the shoes up his ass.
The shocked crowd starts yelling Spanish obscenities at him. Grimjack just smirks at them when suddenly "Circles" by Incubus hits and the crowd goes absolutely nuts as Ryan Maxem is seen standing at the entrance to the tunnel. He walks down the aisle with a mic in his hand, wearing casual jean shorts and a Brazil soccer team jersey.
Maxem: Grim why don’t you show some class? This great city deserves it. I’m sick and tired of you running the HWA into the ground. You’re lucky that the Militia and I are here to save it or things would really be in shambles.
Grimjack: Now you listen here!
Maxem: No you listen here!
Crowd cheers that Grimjack was interrupted as he has a look of hatred on his face for Maxem.
Maxem: It’s been two weeks now and you’re still unable to get my World title belt back for me from that damn masked man. That’s a joke Grim, and so are you.
Grimjack: You don’t deserve the belt anyway! You’re still a worthless rookie as far as I’m concerned Maxem! You wouldn’t last five seconds in the ring with the old legends like myself!
Maxem: What a crock of shit! If you really feel that way Grim, why don’t you prove it! Why don’t you face me next week in Tokyo!
The crowd goes nuts at the thought of the champ versus the president, as Grimjack looks around angrily, not knowing what to do. Finally Grim raises the mic as the crowd is still being loud.
Grimjack: Why wait till next week Maxem! I think the crowd wants to see this . . . now! Get your ass down here Maxem and face me like a man, if you dare!!!
Maxem, hating to have his manhood challenged, drops his mic and goes running down the aisle as the crowd of 90,000 is screaming at the top of their lungs. He slides into the ring and Grimjack starts hitting him with kicks but Maxem gets up and starts battling back with rights and lefts. Maxem irish whips Grim across the ropes and gives him a huge spine buster as he comes back. Suddenly though Awesome D Anderson runs in from the crowd with a steel chair and levels Maxem as the crowd starts booing. Grimjack gets up and Anderson and Grim start laying into Maxem with kicks and stomps. Suddenly though, Nick Fury and Sett come running down and slide into the ring, Fury starts laying into Grim and Sett goes after Anderson and they knock both Grim and Anderson over the top ropes and out of the ring. Sett picks up the chair and dares Grim and Anderson to come back into the ring while Fury checks on Maxem who is ok and getting up. The three Militia members are pointing and yelling at Grim and Anderson as the walk back down the aisle to the back yelling back and screaming obscenities. Maxem, Sett and Fury are posing in the ring getting cheered as the show goes to commercial.
Commercial break
Back at ringside Keith Kincaid and Trent Brown are talking.
TB: What a way to kick off the show as The Militia was battling with the Legacy Department.
KK: And Grimjack will face Ryan Maxem next week. What a match that will be.
TB: In the meantime we have some amazing matches here in the paradise that is Rio de Janeiro, let’s get things started with a match between a few old veterans with something to prove.
First Morgoth comes down to some cheers. Then Craven’s "Youth Of America" by Birdbrain hits and he comes out to a mixed reaction. Lastly the perpetrator of true evilness, Cassandra Starr walks out and is met with loud boos.
TB: She’s getting this reaction because of the heartless way she has treated Michael Diamond.
The three competitors get in the ring and start going at it tooth and nail as all three people have a strong disliking for one another. Cass is acting like a true bitch, scratching and slapping both the men so they double irish whip her into the turnbuckle and she hits it shoulder first hurting herself. Craven and Morgoth start going at it with ruthless abandon. Morgoth irish whips Craven off the ropes and goes for a Samoan drop but Craven jumps off his shoulders, rolls and lands on his feet. Craven kicks Morgoth is the stomach and drops him with a pile driver. But Morgoth gets right up and grabs Craven by the neck, sweeps his leg and takes him down hard with an STP style takedown. Morgtoh stays on him and starts punching Craven in the ribs. Craven kicks Morgoth off of him and gets up but is immediately caught with a big boot to the neck.
TB: I don’t think Morgoth meant to kick Craven in the neck, but it seems to have worked, Craven is having trouble breathing and is holding his neck.
Morgoth covers Craven and Craven can’t kick out because his neck is the restricting his breathing, and Morgoth gets the pin 123.
KK: Whoa! Morgoth just won this match!
TB: Morgoth just made a mockery of Starr and Craven, and I think it’s safe to say that the man is on a roll here in the HWA since his return two weeks ago.
Commercial Break
TB: Last week a youngster named Rage attacked Nick Fury after his match with Anderson and this angered Fury a lot, it will be interesting to see what happens here.
"Ride Of Your Life" by Nuerotica hits and out comes Rage to some heavy booing. He’s walking down to the ring when suddenly Nick Fury comes running out after him and gives him a bulldog on the ramp and the crowd cheers. Fury picks him up and irish whips him into the ring. Fury charges but Rage slides into the ring. Fury slides in after him as the match starts. Fury charges Rage but Rage sidesteps him with his odd stance, Fury bounces off the ropes and is caught with Rage’s patented dropkick, the same one he gave Fury last week.
KK: Rage has perhaps the most technically sound drop kick of anyone I’ve ever seen. Wow!
Fury gets up and grabs Rage, he gives him a snap suplex. Rage gets up and is met with a super kick to the jaw by Fury. Fury goes for a cover but Rage kicks out.
TB: That was close I thought Rage was done. These two young superstars are putting on a great show and I think we may be looking at the future of the HWA right now.
Rage starts darting back and forth and it confuses Fury. Suddenly Rage catches him with a boot to the stomach. Then he plants Fury with a DDT which causes loud boos. Rage covers but Fury kicks out. Suddenly Fury starts living up to his name and goes after Rage with ruthless abandon, with hard punches and kicks that the youngster wasn’t prepared for. Fury gets him in the corner and starts beating on him.
KK: Fury is showing Rage what the HWA is all about.
Rage pushes Fury off of him and Fury stumbles back. Rage rushes him and goes for a clothesline but Fury turns him around and goes into a small package. The ref counts and Rage can’t break out, 1 . . . 2 . . . 3!
TB: Fury just won!
Suddenly exxxtreme runs in from the crowd and hits Fury with a steel chair as the 90 thousand plus proud crowd boos. Rage and exxxtreme are stomping at Fury in anger as the crowd boos.
TB: Somebody stop this! It isn’t fair! Where is the Militia?
The crowd is chanting “Maxem Maxem Maxem” when suddenly their cheers are answered when "Circles" by Incubus is blasted and Maxem comes running down and slides in the ring. Exxxtreme goes to punch him but Maxem blocks it and punches him out of the ring. Rage rushes him but Maxem overpowers the smaller man and gives him a massive Technical Difficulties. Exxxtreme pulls his friend Rage out of the ring as Maxem helps Fury up.
TB: So far it looks like the Militia is a pretty cohesive unit! But what is this new alliance of exxxtreme and Rage?
Something by Someone blasts over the PA system. Hartman makes his way out to the ramp. The crowd gives an enourmous cheer towards Hartman, he walks down the ramp and into the ring awaiting his arrival for his opponent*
TB: This should be a great match tonight. Exxxtreme vs. Hartman.
KK: Yeah the rookie Exxxtreme against the Veteran Hartman, I hope Exxxtreme knows what he is getting himself into.
*Suddenly the lights go out, a pause goes through out the arena, silent*
KK: Did someone forget to pay the electric bill?
*The lights go back on and appears Exxxtreme still inside the ring with Hartman. Exxxtreme attemps a super kick Hartman but he ducks and moves to the other side of the ring*
KK: What is Exxxtreme thinking of? Trying to cheap shot Hartman like that.
TB: Exxxtreme and Hartman seem to be circling the ring. Their eyes are locked each other. They both approach each other to the center ring, nose to nose, eye to eye.
KK: It looks like they’re going for the test of strength, but we all know who’s going to win right?
*They lock up, Hartman seems to get better of Exxxtreme almost putting him on the ground. Hartman then kicks Exxxtreme making him fall to the ground. Hartman gives Exxxtreme a series of kicks before giving him an elbow drop*
TB: Hartman picks up Exxxtreme and gives him an Irish whip, Exxxtreme bounces off the ropes but then cross body blocks Hartman.
*Exxxtreme goes for the pin, 1…2…kickout! Exxxtreme picks up Hartman and pushes him back into a corner*
TB: Exxxtreme seems to be dominating the match at his point.
KK: Yeah, AT THIS POINT, Exxxtreme is dishing out some rights and lefts to Hartman. Oh my god, Exxxtreme just round housed kicked Hartman in the head and Hartman dropped to the canvas.
*Exxxtreme climbs on the top turnbuckle. He goes for a frog splash but Hartman rolls out of the way.*
TB: Hartman is still in this! Exxxtreme is down, both of them are down! Hartman is striving to get up by holding on the ropes. Hartman pulls himself straight up. He looks a little disoriented.
*Hartman shakes his head, trying to take some sense in on what happened. He goes over to the fallen Exxxtreme and picks him up. Hartman kicks Exxxtreme in the gut and delivers a power bomb. Hartman goes for the pin on Exxxtreme. 1…2…kick out!*
TB: Hartman picks up Exxxtreme and tries for another power bomb but Exxxtreme reverses it and Hartman falls on his back. Exxxtreme bounces off the ropes and gives Hartman a leg drop. Exxxtreme then puts Hartman in a head lock.
*The ref puts Hartman’s left hand up, it drops. The ref counts 1. He does it again, the ref counts 2. On the final one Hartman manages to keep his hand up and the ref clears the count. Exxxtreme stands up with Hartman as he keeps the head lock on. Suddenly Hartman gives him a chin breaker releasing the hold. Hartman quickly gets up and starts kicking Exxxtreme while holding his throat in pain from the head lock.*
KK: Hartman is really taken it to Exxxtreme. Hartman picks Exxxtreme up and Irish whips him into the corner.
*Hartman starts hitting Exxxtreme with lefts and rights to the face and the body. Then Hartman grabs Exxxtreme’s head and starts slamming it against the top turnbuckle.*
TB: Hartman now is climbing the top turnbuckle hoping to end this match quickly. He takes Exxxtreme up there with them.
KK: Is he going for a super bomb? Exxxtreme is in serious trouble. Hartman is setting it up, it looks like he’s going for it, but Exxxtreme reverses it into a hurnacanrana! Exxxtreme gets up and is taking it to Hartman. He takes Hartman and gives him a DDT.

TB: It seems right now Exxxtreme is taking Hartman to the turnbuckle, it looks like he’s attempting his infamous XXX.
KK: XXX? What the hell is a XXX?
TB: It’s like a DDT
KK: Well then why didn’t you say that?
TB: Shut up.
*Exxxtreme locks down Hartman arms and both of them fly through the air and Hartman’s head bounces off the canvas. Exxxtreme raises his hand for a signal of going for his finisher.*
KK: I think this is going to be it, Exxxtreme is going to beat Hartman. A Veteran beaten by a rookie. What is the Earth Coming to?
*Exxxtreme picks up Hartman and flattens him with the 1369 *
KK: 1…2…3! OMG Exxxtreme wins!
Commercial Break
Unknown Ninja walks out to a mix of boos and cheers and he totally disregards the huge crowd as he gets in the ring.
TB: I think Ninja is in his zone.
KK: I want to see what happens in this match because last week was chaos when all the masked men started attacking everyone. I want to know who these guys are.
The lights go out as Ninja waits for his opponent in the ring. He looks around, using his ninja senses to try and detect anyone using the darkness to sneak up on him. Suddenly, "Raise Up" by Saliva plays over the loudspeakers.
"Raise up....Everybody RAISE UP!!!!"
The heavy guitar kicks in as pyros go off, and the lights kick back on, and standing on the stage, his arms in the air, is the large masked man. He walks down to ring and rolls in, and stands up and faces the Ninja. Ninja looks up at him, ready to fight, but the masked man takes a step back and takes off his long sleeved black shirt, revealing a grey tank top. He then pumps his arms a few times, and reaches to his mask and tugs it off, revealing...
TB: ONE OF THE MASKED MEN WAS SETT!!
KK: MY GOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
Sett smirks and backs off into his corner.The ring bell is rung. Sett goes to give Ninja a chokeslam but Ninja kicks him in the stomach and he lets go. Sett starts throwing punches but Ninja ducks and blocks everyone and gets hits of his own. But they’re not enough to stop the big man and he grabs Ninja and just tosses him out of the ring, but Ninja lands on his feet.
KK: How did he do that?
TB: I don’t know but maybe it could be all the years of Ninja training?
Sett is in the ring and he is yelling at Ninja to get back into the ring. So Ninja runs up the ring steps and hops onto the turnbuckle. But Sett moves away from the center of the ring to the other side where Ninja wouldn’t be able to jump off and hit him. Ninja starts using his ninjitsu skills and runs across the ropes and before Sett can get away he jumps off the opposite side turnbuckle from where he started and gives the man a huge hurricuranna.
TB: My God!
The crowd gets to it’s feet at the biggest move of the night and is at a decibel level of 100 dB as Sett has gotten devastated. Ninja is able to get up and looks at the ref. He covers and the ref counts 1 . . .2 . . . 3!
TB: Unknown Ninja just beat Sett!
The crowd is starting to chant “TAKE OFF THE MASK” in Spanish at Ninja. Ninja realizes what’s going on but he motions to the crowd that he won’t do it. But suddenly behind him Sett gets up.
TB: Sett is awake! Ninja hesitated!
Sett gets up and grabs Ninja’s throat and prepares to choke slam him, but once again Ninja catches him with a kick making him release the hold. Ninja starts hitting the man with hard kicks and then gives him a DVD. But suddenly Ryan Maxem and Nick Fury come running out and they slide in the ring as the crowd goes nuts. They start double teaming Ninja and beating him in the corner and they give him a double suplex. Sett comes over and tells them to hold Ninja up.
KK: What are they doing?
Sett gets a mic as Maxem and Fury hold up Ninja. He speaks:
Sett: You thought you were tricky Ninja? You think you’re so mysterious and “Unknown”? Well let’s see who you are underneath the mask!
Unknown Ninja struggles against Maxem and Fury as Sett goes to take Ninja’s mask off, when suddenly “One Armed Scissor” hits once again and the boos begin as president Grimjack comes running down yet again. He slides into the ring and Sett starts punching him but Grimjack catches his arm and turns it into the Six Second Magic, the submission move where he tries to rip Sett’s arm out of it’s socket, the most dangerous finisher in HWA history that has taken out countless men. Maxem and Fury let Ninja go and run over and start stomping at Grimjack making him let go but Ninja recovers and hits the both in the back with fists. Maxem, Fury and Sett start battling back against Grimjack and Ninja and knock the two out of the ring. Grimjack and Ninja escape up the aisle as Maxem, Fury and Sett pose in the ring to cheers.
KK: Dammit! Where are Anderson, Conner or Hartman?
TB: I think Hartman may have been taken out by exxxtreme, as for Conner and Anderson they don’t appear to be on the same page and their set to face each other next!
Commercial Break
TB: Welcome back! It’s time for a match everyone has been waiting for, two huge legends.
KK: I have to agree, this will be a great match. And it’s falls count anywhere in the world! This will be great and by the sounds of the crowd they’re looking forward to it as well.
Suddenly “Circles” by Incubus plays and the crowd is confused but happy to see Ryan Maxem with Sett and Fury walking out with the X-treme title and a mic. He gets in the ring and speaks.
Maxem: I know everyone wants to see Anderson and Conner but trust me, it’s not as great, they’re over rated, I mean I’ve beaten them both. Besides you can see us instead.
The crowd cheers loudly as the three men bask in the audience’s favorable reaction.
Maxem: But if you’re wondering what happened to Conner and Anderson take a look.
The huge HWAtron hits up and we see letter’s that say “Earlier today”. Then we see Kevin Conner arriving at the stadium. He gets out of his limo and is immediately met by Sett, Fury and Maxem. They start beating him with bats. Sett rams his face into the bumper of the car. Maxem lifts him up and gives him the Technical Difficulties on the hard concrete. Sett and Maxem walk away laughing as Nick Fury stays and yells trash talk at Conner.
Maxem: That explains why Conner isn’t here. Because we don’t want him to be!
The HWAtron shows the letters: “Later on . . . “ We see Anderson get walking down the hall looking pissed. Suddenly Maxem walks up and gets in his way. Maxem has a backpack.
Anderson: What do you want?
Maxem: I want to show you this cool backpack . . .
Maxem hits Anderson with the backpack knocking him down. Maxem empties out the backpack showing that their were bricks inside. Maxem starts kicking Anderson while he’s down until Anderson stops moving, then Maxem walks away feeling good about himself.
Back in the stadium the crowd is cheering that the Militia got revenge for what happened to them last week by Conner and Anderson.
KK: I can’t believe the Milita took out Anderson and Conner! Grimjack’s two biggest allies! Damn them!
TB: Well it’s too bad that we won’t be seeing that match but at least they won’t be able to interfere in our next match, the main event!
Commercial Break
“Points Of Authority” the Reanimation Remix blasts over the loudspeakers as Michael Diamond and Fudge walk to the ring, under a loud rain of cheers. Michael holds his Tag Team title high in the air as Fudge pats his, which is over his shoulder. The two then sprint down the ring. Diamond slides under the bottom rope while Fudge jumps up to the apron, then vaults over the ropes. The two wait in the ring for their partners in stable, but opponents tonight.
TB: This could be very, very interesting, Keith. The Militia, clearly the dominant stable in the HWA, are being forced to fight each other here tonight.
“One Armed Scissor” by At the Drive in blasts and out come our ref for the night.
TB: Funny how he comes out in between the tag teams. I mean usually he comes out first. I wonder what’s going to happen.
Grimjack gets up to the apron and slides in looking at Diamond and Fudge. He begins chuckling under his breath and Fudge is about to run and attack him but Diamond restrains him.
KK: No one knows what all could possibly happen here in this match between this stable. But that’s why we’re here, and we’re gonna find out right now, ‘cause here come Sett and Maxem, or as they like to call themselves occasionally, The Ryan Connection!
“Circles” by Incubus plays, and Maxem walks out to the ring, holding his hands up and taking in the crowd’s cheers. He walks to the ring and climbs up using the steps, and climbing in between the ropes. He goes to his corner and waits, watching Fudge and Diamond across the ring.
TB: That leaves the other Ryan of this team, Ryan Evans, a.k.a. Sett!
Almost as in response to this, “Raise Up” by Saliva hits the speakers as the crowd’s cheers roar up once more.
KK: I don’t think the crowd can figure out which person in the match tonight to root for.
TB: Of course not, they’ll just cheer for both of them.
Sett steps through the curtains, his arms held high. He drops his hands and quickly walks down to the ring, pulling himself up onto the apron and then stepping over the ropes. “Raise Up” fades out as Sett joins Maxem in their corner and leans against the turnbuckle. The ref signals for the bell, and it rings.
TB: Here we go; this is where it starts right here.
Sett and Fudge step out onto the apron, leaving Maxem and Diamond as the legal men. The two circle the ring, watching each other, waiting for the other to make the first move. Sett starts beating the turnbuckle pad, trying to rile the crowd up in his favor, while Fudge on the other sides starts clapping in attempt to signal the crowd to do the same for Diamond. Finally, Maxem and Diamond lock up.
TB: Here’s a collar-and-elbow tie up, either man can go anywhere from this move.
Maxem shoves Diamond off, making Diamond stumble back a bit and trip, falling back to his butt. He looks up at Maxem, and Maxem stares down at him.
KK: This is a tense moment, I would say.
TB: Very good, Captain Obvious.
KK: Hey…
Diamond rises to his feet, backs up a few steps, and tags in Fudge. Fudge leaps over the ropes and comes charging at Maxem, who tries to catch him with a clothesline. Fudge ducks, turns around behind Maxem, and dropkicks him in the back, making him stumble forward into Diamond’s corner. Diamond ducked down and shoulder blocked Maxem in the gut between the second and third ropes, and Fudge ran over, grabbed Maxem’s head and leaped off the ropes, scoring a springboard bulldog on Maxem.
TB: Maxem in a bad way here against Fudge and Diamond’s teamwork.
KK: These two ain’t the champs for nothing.
TB: And Sett and Maxem have very little tag team experience together, as well, making it seems as if Diamond and Fudge have the advantage here.
KK: But we can’t forget that Sett and Maxem are two very big, very tough, very mean men, too.
TB: True, Keith, true. We’ll just have to see what happens.
Fudge goes for a cover on Maxem, but he kicks out right before the two-count, shoving Fudge off of him. Maxem gets to his feet, as does Fudge. Fudge charges Maxem again, but Maxem bends over and flips Fudge over his back with a back body drop. Maxem then goes over and tags in Sett. Sett steps over the top rope and waits for Fudge to get to his feet. Sett charges Diamond in his corner and clotheslines him off the side of the ring. Diamond collides with the announcing table, and holds his head as he lays on the ground. Fudge is up and Sett and Fudge lock up. Sett knees Fudge in the gut before hitting a suspended suplex. Fudge hits the mat hard, but gets up quick slightly holding his back. Sett goes to baseball slide into Fudge, but Fudge somehow squeezes his leg in between Sett's and connects to Sett’s jewels.
KK: Not a pretty sight, but you do what you gotta do to keep a title.
TB: Yep, I would have done the same thing, even if he was my dad.
The match continues on, and Fudge is now up, and has Sett in some kind of modified cobra clutch. He is trying his hardest to choke his teammate out. Something you don’t see everyday.
KK: This is what they get for screwing with Grimjack. You want to all join together and try and dominant HWA Grimjack will take charge.
Grimjack, as ref just stands there doing nothing. Maxem stands in his corner trying to root on his teammate, and friend. Ryan cant bear to stand his friend get choked by another friend of his, and he gets on the top rope, facing away from Fudge. He jumps off and hits a huge dropkick. Fudge lets go immediately. Ryan drags Sett over to the turnbuckle, and Sett is practically out of it. Ryan hops over the ropes and tags Sett. Ryan jumps back in and spears Fudge. Fudge goes down hard, and Diamond is making his way back up to the side so he has no idea of what’s going on at the moment. Ryan gets back up to help his friend Sett, and he gets Sett out of the way, and off the ring, and Sett crouches on the outside of the ring gasping for air, holding the back of his head, and his throat. Grimjack gets in Maxem’s face, and waves his index finger. He then punches Ryan in the face, and Ryan’s head cocks backwards and spit flies out of his mouth. Diamond looks on in shock as he sees what happens. Grimjack can be heard saying, “no cheating” through out the stadium.
TB: I guess he’s serious about this ref thing.
KK: You thought he was going to mess around?
TB:………..
Ryan tilts his head back at Grimjack and an evil look appears on his face. He gets in Grimjack's face, and Ryan looks as if he is about to hit him, but the recuperating Fudge runs up and hits Maxem with a spear of his own, and Grimjack just laughs. Fudge runs back over to Diamond and tags him in.
TB: Look here it is, our next PPV Main Event.
KK: I got my money down on a member of the Militia for that match.
TB: No shit!
KK: Who says Diamond will still be in the Militia by then, Grimjack is smart, why do you think he made this tag match. This match is going to break up the Militia by then.
TB: I sure as hell hope not.
KK: Watch. Grim and me think alike.
Diamond runs over to the fallen Maxem and locks up with him. Ryan gets the best, but Diamond reverses it, and tosses Maxem against the ropes. Maxem bounces back, and Diamond hits a huge spinning sidekick and connects with Maxem’s upper chest area. Diamond whips Maxem to the ropes again, this time Fudge trips him and Maxem face plants hard. Grimjack runs over to try and take charge in the match and begins swearing at Fudge. Soon after Grimjack hits Fudge square in the face. Fudge jumps in the ring, and Diamond is behind him. Maxem gets up and gets in Fudges face, and soon Sett rolls in. Sett backs Maxem, and it looks like Maxem, Sett, and Grimjack are going to jump Diamond, and Fudge.
KK: See the plan is working perfectly. Wow I love this.
TB: Shut up.
The two groups begin swearing back and forth at each other, until Nick Fury dashes to the ring to try and break up the fight everybody is waiting for. Nick gets in between them all and begins talking it over with Fudge who still looks pissed at Grim, and suddenly a move is made. Fudge pushes Fury on his ass and back a few steps. Fury’s faces becomes bright red, and Fury gets up and runs in Fudges direction. Nick Fury spears GRIMJACK!!! Grimjack goes down hard, because he didn’t see it coming. Soon each and every member of the Militia are stopping a hole in the HWA president. Grimjack is squirming on the ground, and can’t get away. Every time he makes a move he is kicked. The Militia is tearing up the President of HWA.
KK: What the hell is going on here. Security!!!
TB: This is great!
KK: Do you want to get fired?
TB: He can’t fire me anyways. I have a permanent 12-year contract with HWA signed and Ok’ed by Neil himself. So eat shit.
KK……..
Soon, Anderson runs out to aid Grim. Everybody stops beating on Grimjack and Diamond spears Anderson on entrance. Anderson flies back out of the ring, and Grimjack rolls out. The Militia breaks up in the ring, and looks on all sides. Soon, both Conner, and Unknown Ninja run into the ring. Ninja coming from the backside where Maxem, and Diamond are, and Conner comes from up top in front on the ring, where Fudge, Sett, and Fury are. Ninja gets in first and Maxem, and Diamond both begin stomping on Ninja. Ninja is immediately taken out, and he falls to the mat, before he could get up as he rolled in.
KK: This cant be happening, Diamond, and Maxem working as a team.
Conner rolls in, and gets somewhere. He penetrates Fury, getting one shot in the gut before being attacked by three different men. Conner goes down. Fudge and Sett double-team Conner hitting a huge double power bomb. Conner rolls out, and we now have Grimjack, Anderson, Ninja, and Conner all on the outside. Can the Militia be stopped?
TB: This is the greatest night ever.
KK: Shut up!
TB: I love the Militia. Kick his ass Mike!!
The members of The Militia get together in the center of the ring watching each other’s backs. Suddenly, the arena lights start turning black and white as the sound of fireworks blast from the pyros and "Bodies" by Drowning Pool hits and exxxtreme comes underneath the ring while Rage jumps from the security barricade with a kid around his age. Rage, exxxtreme, and their friend Jack slide in the ring.
Rage irish whips Fudge and Jack and Rage give Fudge a double flap jack. While Exxxtreme starts giving some right hands to Sett. Jack clotheslines Diamond, and they both fall out of the ring. While Exxxtreme gets Diamond and throws him out of the ring.
While Jack and Sett are recovering from falling out of the ring as Jack and Sett start throwing right hands at each other. As Fudge slowly recovers, Jack knocks Sett out with a irish whip to the pole, and is seem to be busted open. Jack slides in the ring, Fudge gets up to his feet but as he turns around Jack gives him a Big Boot! Jack slides Fudge out of the ring as Rage seems to be taunting to the fans as they boo him.
As Jack turns around Maxem starts giving him some punches right and left, and Jack gets a clothesline as he falls out of the ring, holding his face.. Rage slides into the ring immediatly and turns Maxem around as he irish whips him, and Maxem reverses the irish whip but Rage gives him a clothesline.
TB: What the hell do these newbies think they’re doing?
Realizing their chance, Grimjack, Anderson and Conner get back into the ring and join the beatdown on the Militia. But Sett gives Rage and exxxtreme a massive double choke slam using both his arms and they’re out. Then he grabs Brian and gives him a huge powerbomb. Meanwhile Diamond, Maxem, Fudge and Fury are going at it tooth and nail with Grimjack, Anderson and Conner. Maxem and Grimjack start wailing on each other as the crowd is going nuts. Suddenly lightning strikes and rain starts falling on the outside stadium and everyone stops. A hush comes across the crowd as the rain is falling hard. A few of the people in the ring go to start fighting again but lightning hits again scaring them and then loud thunder is heard.
TB: This has got to stop! This lightning is to close! Someone’s bound to get electrocuted!
KK: Wait a minute! Wait a fucking minute! Who the hell is that???
Walking down the aisle is seen the first masked man, dressed all in black. He has the HWA world title belt swung around his shoulder. Randy Giles comes running after him trying to get him to stop but the masked man pushes him aside. The masked man comes down to the ring and gets up on the apron and pulls out a mic. He looks directly at Ryan Maxem who is standing by Grimjack.
Masked Man: Maxem . . . you want this back?
The masked man points at the HWA title belt. Ryan Maxem nods that yes he wants it back. Both Maxem and Grimjack are looking at the masked man with hate in their eyes and are completely soaked by the rain like everyone else..
Masked Man: Fine . . . take it you son of a bitch.
The masked man tosses the belt at Maxem who catches it with one arm but still looks at him with rage in his eyes.
Masked Man: Maxem . . . Grimjack . . . do you want to know who I am?
Maxem and Grimjack both nod yes.
KK: Are we actually going to finally find out who this guy is???
Masked Man: Too . . . damn . . . bad.
The masked man hops down from the apron and starts walking back up the aisle as the Brazilian fans boo loudly and throw trash at him but he doesn’t seem to care. Maxem and Grimjack start to chase after him but the brawling starts again as Fudge goes after Grimjack and Anderson goes after Maxem while Conner battles with Diamond, Fury and Sett. Security guards rush into the ring and try to break things up but everyone is slipping from the rain and it’s chaos.
TB: Well we still don’t know who masked man was! I wonder if we’ll ever find out! But at least Maxem got his belt back finally! Tune in next week for HWA survival in Tokyo Japan!
