KK: Lucky for Tarmen he wasn't as seriously hurt as it first looked. He came back later that night and issued a real big challenge to Chewbacca.

TB: that's right it looks as though Chewie's career here in the HWA is on the line at Crash and Burn. Although we haven't received any official word on whether or not that match has been signed.

KK: Either way this week Hughson looks to get back at Hellfire for last week.

Tarmen Hughson's music hits the speakers as pyros shoot through the arena. The fans await his arrival buit he is nowhere to be seen. then a camera takes us to the backstage area where we see Hughson and Hellfire trading punches. A ref has just joined them as the street fight is under way. Hellfire gains the advantage early irish whipping Hughson into a wall. Hughson hits the wall and stumbles backwards right into Hellfire's arms. Hellfire grabs his neck and drops him with a neckbreaker on the concrete. Hellfire makes a cover 1...2.. kick out by Hughson.

TB: Hughson kicking out, but he is still in trouble early.

Hellfire pulls Hughson to his feet. Hughson stumbles around as Hellfire grabs him by the back of the neck. Hellfire points at something off camera then drives Hughson's head into what he was pointing to...a window. Hughson goes flying through the window into a small utility room with numorous cables and wires.

TB: Hughson is really in a bad way here. and I bet I can guess what Hellfire has in store for him in that room with all those wires.

Hellfire opens the door to the room where we see Hughson bleeding pretty bad from his head. Hellfire laughs as he grabs a cable and starts choking Hughson with it. Hughson is twisting around trying to grab the cable from around his neck. Hellfire is loving it as he pulls even tighter around Hughson's neck.

KK: Can Hughson give up here? I mean can he quit a street fight? Because right now I don't know how much he has left.

TB: You know I really don't know.

Hughson looks as though he has lost conscienceness. the ref lfits his arm up, it falls, he lifts it again, and again it falls, he reaches down and lifts it a third time, it falls...half way then Hughson out of nowhere is full of life again. He manages to get to a knee. He throws a few elbows in Hellfire's gut to break the hold on the wire. hughson gets to his feet and grabs a cable of his own locking it around Hellfire's neck.

TB: How quickly the tables can turn.

Hughson pulls back choking the life out of Hellfire. Hellfire tries to get a finger between his neck and the rope but to no avail. Slowly but surely the life is being drained from Chris Hellfire's body. The ref goes to lift Hellfire's hand, it falls, he lifts it again, and again it falls. He lifts it a third time, it stays up, Hellfire is trying to fight out of it like Hughson did earlier. But Hellfire can't take it and his hand falls for the third time. The ref raises Tarmen Hughson's hand as the winner.

KK: Hughson just choked Hellfire out of his match. Hughson wins.

("King Of My World" hits by Saliva and to a huge amount of boos comes Conner. Conner is walking with a smirk on his face and he walks to the ring and gets in. He poses on the turnbuckle and the fans take picture of the big names. Conner gets a microphone and his music cuts.)

Conner: You see I came out to talk to all my Connernanians! And I came out here to talk to my biggest Connernanian Fudge!

(The crowd pops for Fudges name.)

Conner: Yes, you Fudge Fans or whatever he calls you can waste your breathe on a pathetic person like that. But ladies who find Fudge "hot" I gotta tell you that’s your opinion but see he can’t even please his own wife in bed!

(The fans boo.)

Conner: No I’m not taking shots at him he can’t. He can’t even please his own wife Lauren! See and Lauren you know our one night you had a lot of fun, Fudge he was in the hospital and you were in the heat of the moment, and I see why Fudge is with you I mean your a freak!

TB: This is degrating.

Conner: Lauren, Fudge doesn’t believe me you have to tell him or, well I got something that you wouldn’t want him to see!

(The fans then bust out in a "thong" chant and Conner eyes open really big and then he laughs.)

Conner: No, no, I don’t have hers, but that’s in the past. See Fudge you little Fudge-heads are pissing me off I could just show you all right now........ I could show you all the truth! Fudge at C&B you will believe me.....

(All of a sudden "Soldier" by Eminem. Fudge stands the ramp with the fans screaming.)

Fudge: Conner, I don’t know what kind of mind games your trying to do, but they wont help you this Sunday. Because we are gonna go in to Crash and Burn and come out but while I will be walking out you will be on a stretcher!

Conner: Oh Fudge quit fooling yourself, I’m not playing with your head I’m trying to tell you the truth, I’m always honest with myself and others and no matter how jealous you get of me I will always tell you the truth and truth is, you suck in bed and I can please Lauren and you can’t!

(Fudge starts to walk towards the ring.)

Fudge: That’s all nice and good but see I don’t wanna wait till Sunday anymore, I wanna kick your ass right now!

(Fudge begins to walk towards the ring when suddenly Nate Hartman comes and hits Fudge down and stomps on in Conner laughs Fudge starts to get up and Hartman begins to punch him Fudge stands up and hits some of his own sending Hartman up the ramp and then out from under the ring Jason Mysterio comes with a steel chair and hits Fudge in the back.)

Conner: Get his knee!

(Conner laughs and yells at Fudge and then jason hits a vicous chair shot on Fudges leg He screams in pain and Jason and Hartman pull him up and Conner goes outside.)

Conner: See I would be kicking your ass right now if I didn't want to retire you Sunday. Fudge

(Fudge then hits a low blow on Jason and brings Hartman in for closeline and backs Conner up. Fudge begins to stalk Conner around the ring and Conner backs up and then Jason comes and swings but Fudge ducks and he hits Conner. Fudge hits a superkick on Jason into the chair. Hartman then comes clips Fudge and stomps on him.)

TB: This is a flat out assault on Fudge.

(Jason then gets up as Fudge is thrown in the ring. Conner then starts to get up. Hartman grabs Fudges leg and smashes it ring post right on his knee. Jason gets up and then grabs his legs which are on the outside and ring post between his legs and then locks in the figure four with the ring posts help. Fudge screams in pain.)

TB: That’s enough.

KK: He wont be able to compete tonight.

TB: I think he will. Just get some HELP!

(Hartman then takes the chair and hits Fudges knee while in the figure four. Jason then lets go and Conner shakes Mysterio and Hartman’s hand and says "nice doing business" They leave Fudge there who is helped to the back.)

Backstage Scene. Phil Alderson knocks on Neil's door.

Neil: *shouting* come in!

Alderson: Uh hey Neil, I was just wondering if you had anything planned for me at Crash and Burn?

Neil: Why yes! A man of your talent needs the chance to shine on the big stage!

Alderson: Wow thanks! So who have I got?

Neil: Well, who better than Anderson?

Alderson: ANDERSON?!

Neil: Yeah, I thought you wanted to nail that SOB since you arrived here in the HWA?

Alderson: Yeah, but, I dunno. I dunno if i'm ready. He's tough.

Neil: Yes, yes he is. But you see, I want him to lose that match. Him and me have somewhat of a history you might say!

Alderson: Yeah I did hear about that!

Neil: Which is why I've assigned a special guest referee to the match. In fact I'd like for you to meet him now!

The door to the office opens and in walks Ron Dangerous.

Neil: Alderson - meet Ron Dangerous.

The two men shake hands.

Neil: Between the two of you - I Want you to make SURE that Anderson doesn't just LOSE that match - but gets the absolute crap beaten out of him. Is that clear?

Dangerous: Oh hell yeah, you got it.

Alderson: Absolutely.

Neil: Excellent, now, if you don't mind fella's I got some work to do!

They exit the room leaving Neil alone with his paperwork.

"New Disease" by Spineshank hits and Neil makes his way to the ring, carryin over his shoulder the X-Treme Title. Upon entering the ring he calls for a mike.

Neil: Now, it's time for the signing of the X-Treme Title match to take place at Crash and Burn one week from today.

The crowd cheer in anticipation.

Neil: Now you may remember that this X-Treme Title is a creation of my own. Of late it seems that the title hasn't been given the proper respect that it deserves. Remember folks that the holder of this belt presides over not only the history of this very belt but the two belts it, in effect, replaced; the Television Title and the Hardcore Title. If you could turn your attention to the HWAtron the HWA have put together a little montage of what this belt is all about, its great history.

The tron flickers to life and we see little snippets of all the former champions of both the TV title and also the Hardcore Title. The crowd cheer some and boo others as names like Fudge, Conner, Flames, Bizz, Bullfather, The Real Hero, Kittie, Brooklyn, Cloud, Anubis, Zack Tyler, Buff Daddy Dollar$, Johnny Arrow, Breeze, Ryan Maxem, Steven Hydrox, Matt Hydrox and Jason Craven are seen on the screen.

When the montage is finished the crowd are still pumped and give a standing ovation to some of the biggest names in HWA history.

Neil: You see, this belt means a lot, and meant a lot, to a lot of people. Now. When I merged those belts we took elements of each belt. The TV element means that this new belt must be defended on EVERY TV show, and the Hardcore element means that EVERY match is no DQ. This is a seriously hard belt to win and an even harder belt to keep!

Neil: Now, at Crash and Burn we have one of the most eagerly anticipated matches in HWA history. Former World and International Champion Ryan Maxem defends this belt against a relative newcomer in HWA history - The Heretic. This guy, the heretic is on one hell of a roll as it goes. In fact, he has only been defeated once. That was by the man we are about to welcome out here right now - RYAN MAXEM!

Ryan Maxem makes his way out to the ring as the crowd goes nuts! He enters the ring and stands next to Neil. He walks over to Neil and slaps a hand on the X-Treme Title over Neil's shoulder.

Neil: And now, introducing his opponent at Crash and Burn, THE HERETIC!

This time the crowd boo as The Heretic makes his way to the ring. He tries to go straight for Maxem but Neil blocks his attempts to reach him.

Neil: Easy big fella! Now, if the two of you could just sit right over there, we'll get right into this.

Maxem and Heretic stare right at each other, neither giving an inch.

Neil: Heretic, as challenger, could you sign first please?

The Heretic slowly walks over to the table, and signs his name on the contract.

Neil: And Ryan, your turn.

Maxem walks over towards the table but as he does the Heretic slides behind him, and in a flurry manages to produce a knife and holds it at Maxem's throat.

Neil: What the hell you doing Heretic - Put that knife down!

Various security guards run in but stand off as the Heretic threatens to cut Maxem's throat.

The Heretic: Don't tempt me. There's something I want Neil.

Neil: What?

The Heretic: this match? at Crash n Burn. First blood!

The crowd go wild at this suggestion. Neil pauses in thought.

TB: The Heretic wants a first blood match! Thats giving a big advantage to Heretic that is.

KK: We know how satanic The Heretic can be. What a coup by him if he gets this.

TB: I don't think Neil is left with any choice!

Neil turns to the two men.

Neil: Ok Heretic you got it.

The crowd scream with anticipation

KK: It's gonna be a blood bath!

The Heretic slowly cuts a thin cut across Maxem's throat but Maxem manages to get an elbow into The Heretic's ribs and distract him. Maxem tries to grab the knife but The Heretic is too quick. He holds the knife towards Maxem. Maxem's throat is leaking blood bg time. He wipes it with his hand. The Heretic grabs Maxem's other hand and holds it behind his back. He forces Maxem down. Maxem puts his hand down, thinking to steady himself, but his fingers touch the contract and leave bloody marks all over it.

TB: My God. Heretic has sealed the deal with Maxem's own blood.

Just then the security guards grab Heretic and pull him off Maxem. Maxem tries to get to Heretic, but Neil and another security guard cut him off before he can.

The Heretic's music plays as both men are led from the stage.

TB: Wow. So the First blood match at Crash and Burn has been signed.

KK: In a fashion.

TB: Yes, but what a statement, having Maxem seal the deal with his own blood.

TB: that's right next time we bring you Survival, he will either be Baseball Dan, or out of the HWA.

Cassandra Starr is alreayd in the ring awaiting Chewbacca's entrance. The theme from Star Wars hits but Chewie is nowhere to be seen. the music plays a second but no one comes out. Cassandra looks on impatiently.

KK: Where is Chewie?

TB: I haven't seen him all day long.

The music hits again but still no Chewie to be seen. The ref starts his mandatory ten count. 1....2....3....4.....5....6....7....8.....9....10. The ref raises Starr's hand as the winner.

KK: This is the second week in a row Cassandra Starr has picked up a win witohut ever having to fight in a match.

TB: I'm sure she won't complain. She is steadly picking up wins.

KK: I wonder where Chewie is?

The scene opens in Neil's office and he is on the telephone.

Neil: Yeah, it'll be great to have you back with us in the HWA. I personally think you're just what we need to give the federation a kick-

Suddenly the door bursts open and 3 cops walk in.

Neil: (to the phone) Uh - wait a second, I'll call you back.

Neil disconnects and turns to face the cops.

Neil: So, what's going on officers?

Cop: Mr Williams?

Neil: Thats me.

Cop: As owner of the HWA3000 we are arresting you in connection with the bombing of the HWA building in Septemeber of this year and also in connection with the riot at a HWA event in Mexico on the date of the 8th December. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense. Do you understand your rights Mr Williams?

Neil: Yeah, but I don't understand - why are you arresting me?

Cop: Mr Williams please come with us to the vehicle outside.

Neil: Wait, I wasn't even AT either of those events.

Cop: Mr Williams please just come with us now otherwise I will have no choice but to cuff you.

Neil: But I'm innocent of both charges!

The cop clamps a handcuff on Neils hand and jerks his arm behind his back, handcuffing the other hand too.

Neil: Take it easy man.

The cop says nothing and pushes Neil out of his office, flanked by the other two officers and they make their way to a waiting vehicle.

TB: What the HELL is that all about?

KK: Trent, I don't know. I don't know.

TB: Neil can't have been behind the riot - he wasn't even there!

KK: I suppose they hold the HWA resposible, and Neil DOES own it.

TB: But why have they waited so long to arrest him? and why on earth is he being charged with bombing his own building?

KK: This is terrible Trent, I don't know what else to say. I can't believe this has happened. Neil can't be behind these things.

[ The first two people in the ring are Rage and Brad Evans. They lock up, nobody gets the advatage in the lock up so they break the hold. They go in to lock up again but Rage gouges the eyes of Brad Evans.]

KK: Oh no he did not, that’s not wrestling. He should be disqualified.

TB: I agree.

[The ref breaks it up between the both of the them and gets right in Rage’s face. Rage pushes the ref out of the way and charges after Evans, taking him down with a leg scissors. Rage picks up Evans and throws him against the Immortals turnbuckle, Rage tags Exxxtreme. Exxxtreme gets in the ring and throws Evans against the ropes, Exxxtreme tries to clothesline Evans, but Evans ducts and DDT’s Exxxtreme. Evans quickly gets up and goes to tag Sett.]

KK: Uh oh.

TB: What is it?

KK: The big man Sett is in the ring, people are going to get smushed.

[Sett runs in, as well as Rage, Sett big boots Rage. Exxxtreme gets up and Sett clotheslines him. Sett repeatedly stomps on Exxxtreme and then leg drops him. He grabs Exxxtreme and tosses him on the turnbuckle and slaps him across the chest a few times. The crowd reacts with a “Whoo!” Sett then Irish whips Exxxtreme in the corner and then on the return Sett choack slams Exxxtreme.]

KK: Sett’s going to win!

[Sett covers Exxxtreme, Rage tries to break the count but Evans is there is block Rage. 1…2…3! Sett and Brad Evans wins!]

Brad Evans stands in the middle of the ring, facing him nose to nose is Sett. Exxxtreme slides through the ring and hits Sett in the back with a chair. Sett falls, and Rage jumps off the top rope, nailing Sett with a guillotine leg drop. Brad steps back and watches...wondering whether to help his brother...or just do nothing. Exxxtreme and Rage continue to beat on Sett, as Brad turns around, and exits the ring. He walks up the ramp and away from his brother.*

TB: What the hell did we just see?!

KK: Porn. I was watching some porn on my monitor

The camera opens the scene in a police station where Neil is being finger-printed.

Neil: I'm telling you guys, you got the wrong man.

Cop: Save it. You're not helping yourself making a scene right now.

Neil: Can I have my phone call now?

Cop: Sure.

Neil finishes being finger-printed and is led to a room where there is a pay-phone. He dials.

Neil: Hey man - listen - I haven't got long. I've been arrested. They're charging me with the bomb on the HWA building and also for inciting the riot in Mexico.

Voice: Thats CRAZY.

Neil: Yeah I know its crazy but you gotta do something for me.

Voice: What?

Neil: You know you said I could count on you for anything? I may have to call that in.

Voice: I really don't like the sound of this.

Neil: I need you to watch over the fed.

Voice: What the HELL?! Don't you know I've got my own fed to look after?

Neil: Listen buddy - You've gotta do this.

Voice: I'm not. I refuse.

Neil: You're the only one who I know is up to the task.

Voice: Where's Grimjack?

Neil: I don't know - he's dissapeared.

Voice: Million?

Neil: Resigned.

Voice: What?!

Neil: Yeah. Listen man. I need you to do this for me. I've only got a few seconds left.

Voice: No. I told you.

Neil: What happens if I tell them about you David. I know ALL about you remember. It's what saved your ass from going down when YOU were arrested remember?

Voice: Neil, are you blackmailing me?

Neil: Yes I am.

:click:

Neil looks at the phone and his eyes close. The camera pans out and we see Neil's clenched fists. He slams the phone down and his head drops.

Neil: (muttering) you'd better not let me down. You're the only one who can do this.

The scene returns to ringside where Trent and Keith are sitting.

KK: This night just gets stranger and stranger.

TB: Who was Neil talking to? And why did he have to blackmail the guy?

KK: I don't know Trent but this is bad. I can feel it.

TB: From the tone of Neil's voice it sounds very serious indeed. Serious enough that he has to blackmail someone.

KK: And if the police find he did blackmail that man it could make things very much worse for Neil

TB: Why do I get the feeling this is going to be very very bad for HWA.

Keith: This doesn't look good from the beginning. How are Judge and Diamond going to be able to work together?

Trent: They don't have much of a choice thanks to the stipulations.

Michael Diamond follows Judge down to the ring. You can tell by looking in his eye that Diamond is thinking about nailing Judge right now, but he holds back and takes his place on the apron. Judge slides into the ring and the bell sounds.

Keith: I guess we're getting right into the match.

Trent: Judge and Mark are squaring off.

The two tie it up in the center of the ring. Judge overpowers Mark and irish whips him into the ropes. On the return goes for the big boot, but Mark ducks and quickly makes the tag to Syco Sam.

Keith: Judge is going for power moves early in the match. I don't know how smart that is.

Trent: Judge is trying to end this as fast as possible, he wants to be no where near Diamond right now.

Judge and Sam square off. Sam knees Judge in the mid section, then hits him with a double axe hammer in the back. Judge is down on one knee. Sam tags Mark back in. Mark climbs the turnbuckle as Sam lifts Judge up. Mark jumps off and connects with a missle dropkick sending Judge down hard. Diamond has a big smile on his face.

Mark pulls Judge up, but Judge hits a huge knee to Mark's midsection. Judge send Mark into his corner. Diamon drops down from the apron as Judge walks closer to him. Judge goes out of the ring and gets in Diamond's face.

Trent: He's gonna hit him! He's gonna hit him!

Keith: He can't, he doesn't wanna lose this.

Judge turns to go back to the ring when Mark leaps over the top rope landing on Judge. Diamond just climbs back up on the apron. Mark rolls Judge back into the ring, then slides in himself and "accidentally" trips the referee. He goes to help the ref up as Sam gets in the ring and begins stomping on Judge. Diamond slowly makes his way in the ring, but the ref, not seeing Sam, goes to stop Diamond from getting into the ring. Sam and Mark begin stomping away on Judge. Diamond takes his good ole time getting out of the ring, the ref makes Sam go back to his corner.

Trent: Diamond just helped distract the ref for them!

Judge makes his way back up, exchanging blows with Mark. Judge knocks Mark down, then goes to tag Diamond. Again Diamond drops down from the apron. Judge goes back out of the ring and pulls his fist back. He goes to swing, but quickly stops knowing he can't hit Diamond. Judge spits in Diamonds face, then heads up the ramp. Diamond starts to go after Judge, but is attacked by both Mark and Sam. They drop Diamond and stomp on him until the ref makes them get back in the ring. They roll Diamond in, then hit him with a two man DDT. Mark distracts the ref as Sam puts on a pair of brass knuckles. Diamond makes his way to his feet, only to be hit by the knuckles and knocked out cold.

Trent: What the hell!?

Keith: This doesn't look good for Diamond.

Sam tucks the knuckle in his pants and covers Diamond. The ref turns and rushes to them making the three count.

Trent: Well it looksl ike we have our winners.

Keith: Judge just up and left Diamond.

Trent: Do you blame him? I mean Diamond didn't help at all during this match.

Keith: I guess what goes around comes around.

Trent: Well, at least the Crash n Burn Main event is still going to happen!

*Sett busts through Brad's door and gets right in his face, fresh blood smeared all over his face.*

Sett - Where were you at "little" bro? I thought you said you had my back?

Brad - Yeah? Things change, people change. You should know that.

*Brad turns to walk out of the door, and Sett charges at Brad with a clothesline. Brad ducks and uses Sett's momentum to throw him into a nearby concession stand. He picks up a stranded metal pipe on the ground. And when Sett gets back up, Brad hits him over the head, knocking Sett to the ground. Brad stands and stares at his brother a minute, then drops the pipe and leaves the arena.*

TB : Hey where the hell is Fudge?

KK : After that onslaught earlier, rumor has it that Fudge wont be wrestling tonight

TB : I just heard from my earpiece that Fudge will indeed be unable to compete in tonight's match, and the doctors are highly recommending that he doesn't compete at Crash and Burn!

KK : Then it sucks to be Fu---

Just then "Soldier" by Eminem once again comes over the PA and from the back, slower than ever, and with what looks like a limp of excruciating pain. . .

KK : Oh what the hell is this?

TB : Its Fudge. Why does this guy never seem to stay down?!

The fans have exploded into cheers. . .

TB : Its taking Fudge a while to get to the ring, but he seems ready enough to go

KK : He aint going to survive this match!

Fudge finally makes it to the ring, and he grabs a microphone. . .

Fudge : Conner at Crash and Burn I am going to kick your ass, and whether your boys are backing you up or whatever doesn't matter to me, I am still going to kick your little ass for everything you have said and done as of late and in the past. . .This time Conner YOUR not coming back!

TB : He seems hella angry

Fudge : Now Anderson get your big tall ass down to this damn ring because YOU are going to be handing back to me what is mine, LIKE IT OR NOT!

Fudge throws the microphone and taunts ready for Anderson. .

Ring Announcer: And his opponent, the HWA International Champion, Awesome ‘D’ Anderson!

“Young Grow Old” by Creed hits the speakers and Anderson walks down the ring, International Title slung over his shoulder. He slowly makes his way to the ring, Summer at his side, and steps into the ring, standing at the opposite corner and staring down Fudge.

KK: This is an important match, it’s not only for the International Title, but if Fudge wins, then the match between him and Conner at Crash and Burn will be a title match!

TB: And speaking of Conner, here he is now, as the special guest referee.

“King of my World” by Saliva hits the sound system and Kevin Conner walks out wearing a ref’s shirt, posing to the fans who boo at him in return.

TB: Conner still doesn’t get the fact that the fans hate him now.

KK: Of course he does, he’s doing it on purpose!

Conner gets into the ring as both Anderson and Fudge watch him. As he gets in the ring, the bell rings. Anderson and Fudge get out of their respective corners and start to circle each other, each waiting for an opportune moment to attack. Conner watches, waiting for one of these two to finally get mad and leap at the other.

TB: Fudge and Anderson sizing each other up here, waiting for the right time.

Fudge lunges at Anderson, who gets ready to block the attack, but Fudge pulls back mid-lunge, ducks and sweep kicks Anderson, tripping him up.

KK: What a cheap shot!

TB: Fudge knows he can’t stand toe-to-toe with Anderson, so he’s using his speed to try and keep him off guard.

Fudge immediately throws himself down on Anderson and applies a sleeper hold. Anderson’s momentary daze soon fades and he starts clawing at Fudge, trying to get him off. When he realizes mere arm throwing will not get Fudge off his neck, Anderson then exploits his strength advantage and forces himself back to his feet. Fudge keeps his hold, trying in vain to keep control of Anderson, but Anderson throws an elbow into Fudge’s midsection, throwing him off of Anderson and to the ground. Before Anderson could capitalize, however, Fudge had rolled backwards and leapt up to his feet away from Anderson. Anderson stopped, smirked and beckoned Fudge on with his fingers. Fudge shrugged and charged at Anderson. Anderson, thinking Fudge had taken the bait, ducked as if to set up a back body drop, but Fudge leapt over Anderson, doing a front flip, grabbing Anderson’s head and pulling him all the way up and back down with a form of a neckbreaker.

KK: He’s still cheating!

TB: No, I’d call that an amazing move by Fudge! Anderson has yet to mount any offense in this match!

Anderson takes a little bit longer to get up than before, and it’s all Fudge needs. He hops up onto the turnbuckle and wait for Anderson. Anderson groggily gets up, seemingly a little stunned by that neckbreaker. Fudge leaps off the turnbuckle with a cross-body block, hoping to send Anderson back down to the mat, but Anderson obviously wasn’t as groggy as he had made himself out to be as he catches Fudge mid-leap.

KK: Uh oh! Time for a turnaround here!

TB: I’ll admit it, Anderson just made the equalizer right there.

Anderson hefts Fudge around the ring a little bit, either showing off for the fans or deciding what to do with him. Finally he walks over to the corner and tosses him out of the ring. Fudge falls out of the ring and lands on the ring steps, crying out and clutching his back in pain. Anderson leans against the opposite turnbuckle and waits as Conner starts the count.

TB: Fudge looks to be in a lot of pain, will he be able to make it back in the ring?

1... Anderson waits as Fudge rolls off the ring steps.

2... Fudge lays outside of the ring, clutching his back with one hand and reaching out to grab something for support with the other.

3... Fudge still flails about, not being able to find a good support.

4, 5, 6…

TB: Hey! Conner’s counting fast!!

KK: Looks like an even pace to me…

TB: Oh Lord.

Fudge hears the fast counting and grabs the guardrail and pulls himself up. 7.. 8.. Fudge pulls himself up….9…Fudge slides into the ring and leaps to his feet, getting right in Conner’s face. Conner holds his hands out, acting innocent, but Fudge just keeps yelling. Fudge is suddenly attacked from behind by Anderson, who clubs him over the back. Conner, who saw it coming a mile off, slides out of the way as Anderson goes to work on Fudge. Anderson kicks at Fudge a few times, then grabs him and throws him into the turnbuckle. He then sets to work throwing punches at the face and midsection of Fudge, softening him up. He finally steps back, then charges back in with a huge boot the face, making Fudge fall over on his face. Anderson rolls him over and pins him, and Conner counts, one, two, Fudge kicks out.

TB: Close call there.

KK: Damn! Anderson almost got him!

Anderson picks up Fudge and sizes him up before kicking him in the gut and dropping his head into the ground with a DDT. Fudge slowly gets up to his feet of his own power. As he does so, Anderson signals for the Attitude Adjuster.

TB: Oh NO! Fudge is out! This could be the end of it already!

KK: Yes, YES! Anderson’s gonna retain!! Hahaha!

Anderson kicks Fudge in the gut and lifts him up and nails him with the Attitude Adjuster.

KK: ATTITUDE ADJUSTER!! HAHAH! EAT IT FUDGE! Make the count Conner!

Conner goes for the count, one, two…Conner suddenly stops and thinks…and doesn’t make the count down for the three.

KK: CONNER?! WHAT THE HELL?!?!

TB: Keith, think about it. If Anderson wins, Conner doesn’t get a shot at the title on Crash and Burn, but if Fudge wins…

KK: Oh…

Anderson gets up and looks at Conner furiously. Conner just kinda shrugs and mouths the words “Sorry man”, appearing to be sincerely sorry for what he has to do. Anderson scowls at Conner and turns around. As he does so, he’s hit with a shuffle side kick from Fudge. Conner’s eyes widen, seeing that he not only just didn’t make the count for Anderson, he also inadvertently gave Fudge the time he needed to come back. Fudge then leapt onto the turnbuckle and leapt off with a high-altitude Moonsault, landing on top of Anderson for the pin. Conner shook his head, and dropped to the mat to make the count. One, two, three. The bell rang as Fudge picked up the victory. Conner rolled out of the ring and walked off as Fudge took his belt, raised it high and walked away.

TB: I sure don't like the way this went down Keith
