Pre-Show


[The screen fades into the pits of darkness.]

HAVE you forgotten yet?...

[Crippler then to the second rope, and wears down Harris with a series of punches! Crippler sets Harris on the top, and nails a release german suplex from the top!!]

For the world's events have rumbled on since those gagged days,

[Jacobs drops the chair and slides out of the ring, Crow pushes White towards the ring, and Diablo is resting with his arm draped over Logan Cain! Tim White, in shock, makes the futile count!]

Like traffic checked while at the crossing of city-ways:

[Slowly walks along the "standing room only" area of the arena, and grabs a large garbage can. Firebomb gets up, but Link rams the can over Firebombs head! Firebomb struggles to pull the can off, but Link nails Firebomb with a kick, sendind Firebomb, tumbling inside the can down the upper flight of stairs!]

And the haunted gap in your mind has filled with thoughts that flow

[Dane lifts Crippler up to his feet but the BWA champion catches Dane off guard with a fist to the midsection. Crippler grabs Dane, and slams him off the mat with a rocker dropper! On the outside, Jacobs is yelling at Crippler and motioning him over. Crippler makes his way towards Jacobs and Drew offers him the FCW belt!]

Like clouds in the lit heaven of life; and you're a man reprieved to go,

[Syn slides outside of the ring, and grabs a table as Dark Arthur pulls CK back to his feet, and sets him up for a powerbomb. On the outside, Syn sets up a table on the ring floor. DA pulls the Kid up, and throws him over the top rope, powerbombing him over the table on the floor.]

Taking your peaceful share of Time, with joy to spare.

[Chilli pulls Salvation up into a slam position, but Salvation flips out, and continues his momentum to plant Chilli with a swinging DDT!! Salvation then shakes the ropes, sending Zulias hard onto the turnbuckle!! Salvation, very tired but still determined to win, climbs the top rope, and goes for a backdrop from the top rope!!! Chilli is back up though, and he grabs Salvation, and sends him crashing to the mat with a crucifix powerbomb!!! Chilli holds it for the pin!!!]

But the past is just the same--and War's a bloody game...

[Chilli goes to swing the chair at the referee but Dane pushes him out of the way and kicks ‘The Controller of Chaos’ Chilli in the stomach. Tha chair drops in front of Chilli’s head. Eric Dane grabs Chilli and lifts him in the air, before dropping him down from a suplex position onto the steel chair as the referee is on his hands and knees getting up.]

Have you forgotten yet?...

[Back on the basketball court, Mara, Mario, and Devins have slowly brawled their way to the other end of the court, as have most of the other wrestlers. Mario and Devins grab Vinny, and whip him into the wall.]

Look down, and swear by the slain of the War that you'll never forget.

[Malik is up and flips Trent over with a hip toss, Trent lands on his feet and takes out Malik's leg with a dropkick. Trent goes to the top and waits on Malik, he goes for a top rope rana, but gets caught by Malik.]

[The screen fades to black]

 

[We fade into the Air Canada Center which is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and we see a bunch of WWA Alliance fans going nuts as pyro is set off, coming from the ramp, turnbuckles and from inside the ring.]

[ CRACK! ]

[ BBOOOOMM!! ]

[ BBBOOOOOOMMM!!! ]

[ HHHHHUUUUUGGGGGEEEEE BBBBBAAAAANNNNNGGGGG!!!!! ]

[The pyro stops and we then cut to 'upstairs,' the inside of a sky box. Inside this sky box we find CCW commentators, Chancery Winstock and Eric Taylor. Winstock is wearing a nice black suit, and his long hair is slicked back via gel, as always. Taylor is wearing a black "Down With Ulfric" t-shirt, and his hair is just left messy.]

Winstock [ yelling over crowd ] -"WELCOME TO TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA! We're here and ready to start off the WWA Alliance Pay-Per-View, Shockwave, where we will see a great night for wrestling history! A great line-up, with great talent from across the alliance, across the whole freakin' world!

Taylor - That's right, Winstock! Great wrestling, indeed! We'll see a WWA World Tag Championship match, pitting Manifest Destiny, the current Tag Team Champions, against the team of James Keiler & Azreal! It's sure too be one stiff and long battle, despite the obvious advantage that Manifest Destiny has over the not regular teag team of Azrael and Keiler. But you can't count them out.

Winstock - Of course you can't, Taylor. Also tonight, we'll see a WWA Double Crown Championship match, pitting the current Champion, Jonathan Cross, defending against Terrence 'Twister' Thompson and Jake Devins. I'll pick Cross to win because he has more steam going into Shockwave then Thompson has, plus Devins hasn't been in a ring in a while. But again, can't count his opponents out.

Taylor - We will also see a World Cruiserweight Title match with Wendy Briese, the Champion, defending against Robin. My pick is Wendy, she's just unstoppable, plain and simple. Later, Rune Archer will try and wrestle the WWA National Title away from the current Champion, Isaac Galweigh. I'll pick Archer, I've watched this kid his whole WWA run, and he just keeps getting better and better because of the non-hardcore rules in CCW. When you wrestle more, you get better. You're not wrestling if you're hitting someone with a chair, you're not wrestling if you're putting someone through a table. That's why Archer has an advantage over anyone who steps into a ring.

Winstock - Dark Wolf will be going one-on-one with Jason Ramsey in a match that should impress many new fans who may not have seen these two. Good old Dark Wolf . . . I love that cat. We'll also see Michael Lennox versus Rayne, one-on-one. I can't WAIT for this match! Rayne has been one of my favorite wrestler for years, and Lennox has been the most unstoppable WWA World Heavyweight Champion in recent history.

Taylor - And our Main Event . . . the WWA World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line as Ulfric gets his chance, his one chance that he earned by winning Summer Games, as he tries to wrestle the Title away from Mike Sloan. I'm rooting for Sloan all the way here . . . I've never liked Ulfric. Go Mike Sloan! Keep that strap off Ulfric!


Winstock - Some harsh words from the Newfie . . . you didn't really mean that, did you?

Taylor [ nodding ] - Every word.

Winstock - First up, we have a Tournament for the #1 Contendership for the WWA National Title. In this Tournament we'll see Dan Easton, Jason Lockhart and Malik Johnson in a Round Robin. That and much more here on Shockwave!


Dan Easton Vs. Jason Lockhart
National Title Contenders Tournament

RA: The following match is scheduled for one fall and it is part of the Number One Contender's Tournament for the National Championship. Introducing first..

("Trapt" by Headstrong begins to play over the PA. Red, white, and blue laser lights piece the arena, moving over the crowd [video plays, if there is a screen set up that shows Lockhart doing various signature move and his finishers, as well as winning matches and even some of his amateur wrestling shots like his World championship win]. A man moves from behind the curtain and stands looking at the crowd, his green eyes surveying everything, before then moving his focus to the ring. The monster of a man is wearing his PNW "Locked Hart" t-shirt over his singlet for his entrance to the ring. He poses a bit, flexing and bouncing on the balls of his feet. Then he begins his move towards the ring.)

#Circling, your circling, you circle in your head/Contemplating everything you ever said/Now I know the truth, I got a doubt/A different motive in your eyes and now I'm out, see you later#

(Stops mid-way to pose some more and then abruptly raising his arms pointing towards the sky and looking up.)

(He then continues to move toward the ring, jumping onto the apron, and moving between the ropes into the actual ring.)

#I know, I know all about/I know, I know all about/I know I know all about your motives inside and your decision to hide#

(He stands in the middle of the ring, as the song is finishing, then balls up his fist and strikes his chest three times before raising it, pointing his index finger to the sky.)

#Back off we'll take you on / Headstrong to take on anyone / I know that you are wrong / Headstrong we're Headstrong / Back off We'll take you on / Headstrong to take on anyone / I know that you are wrong /And this is not where you belong (where you belong)/I can't give everything away (this is not where you belong)/ I won't give everything away (this is not where you belong)#

Archer: "Well, Isaac, here we are, in my home country, the Dominion of Canada, for one of the biggest events in the wrestling world, WWA's annual Shockwave. Galweigh, the whole world is watching, and for maybe twenty to forty minutes, the spotlight will be cast solely onto <b>US</b>, and our epic struggle for the National Title, the second most valuable title in all of the Alliance."

[Rune swallows, and straightens out his mustache/goatee with his hand.]

Archer: "Believe me when I say that that spotlight will not be wasted for a second. There may be more important matches in the eyes of the fans, and there may be matches with more at stake. But for those few minutes, we will hold the audience. We will tell the audience exactly what we're about, and why it is we deserve to be fighting in such a prestigious predicament."

[Archer looks down to his feet, takes a deep breath, and returns his gaze to the camera.]

Archer: "Isaac, you've said that, to prevent prior challengers from popping back up to oppose you, you are going to completely obliterate them. I can't speak for other challengers, but, short of killing me, you will not be able to do that. You are going to have to kill me in order for me to not pursue my belt, not pursue my victory. Oh, there will definately be other things going on, or other goals in my career, but never being able to regain my National Championship glory will always prey on me, in the back of my mind. ALready, you have the edge, you see? Ah, but I am persistant, and persistance pays off for someone of my talents."

[Pause.]

Archer: "Isaac, unlike so many of the wrestlers here in the Alliance, I'm not gonna spend my time trash-talking, talking about how you suck or whatever. I mean, you beat me, so I would look even worse, right? I'm only gonna hit you with fact: if you want to retain that National Championship you've earned, you're going to have to knock me unconscious. If I still have my wits about me, my shoulders are not going to be on the the mat for more than two seconds. Good luck."

[Rune walks away with a purpose.]

Announcer: The referee has ruled this a no contest due to a double count out!

[Cut to the parking area, where a black limousine is just pulling in...]

[...and pulling in...]

[...and pulling in...]

[...Mein Gott, this is one motherflurkin' long limousine, even by motherflurkin' long limousine standards. It's about as long as two limousines connected back to front. How it navigated your average city streets to get to the arena is anybody's guess. The sheer geometry of something like that making a right turn -- let alone a LEFT turn -- boggles the mind.]

[The interminable limo pulls past the camera for a few seconds before coming to a stop. The rear door opens, and out comes a series of highly recognizable figures.]

[Seth Maverick, with a WfWA Tag Team Title belt over his shoulder.]

["The Stormin' Mormon" Brigham Smith, carrying the other one.]

["The Red Angel" Misty Xiao.]

[Ash the Man-Soon.]

[The Skipper.]

[And finally, the diminutive leader of the group himself: Mr. PB.]

[The Syndicate of EVIL marches in force toward the entranceway, looking as menacing and intimidating as an eccentric group like this can manage. WfWA officials and scattered fans are wisely steering way clear of the sinister six. We can hear a rhythmic chant -- it's been audible at the edge of hearing since the limo door opened and disgorged its passengers, but now it's clearly heard as the voice of Misty Xiao.]

Misty: [Happily] I'm number one! I'm number one! I'm number one! I'm number--

Seth: [Snarls] You gonna shut up anytime soon?

Brigham: She's been like that ever since she won that triple threat match on the pre-show.

Misty: Yeah! And now I'm the number one contender to the WWA Cruiserweight Title! I ROCK!

Seth: Well, would you shut up about it for two f*cking minutes? Christ!

[Grimacing, he clamps his meaty hands over his ears. Misty sticks her tongue out at him. PB glances back and -- we can only assume, since his face is concealed under his usual paper bag -- smiles at the "Red Angel".]

PB: We're all quite proud of you, Miss Xiao, I'm sure. Any means to obtain more of this alliance gold -- and the fat payoffs that go with it -- is more than worthwhile, is it not? And tonight we shall try to keep our stranglehold on the tag team division against... who are you lot fighting again?

Brigham: James Keiler and Azrael. They're really talented -- I think it's going to be a tough night.

Seth: F*ck 'em. They're a couple of midget windbags who need a little deflating. [Slams his fist into his palm] I'm down for that.

[PB makes a dismissive gesture.]

PB: Oh, whatever. These Keibler and Asimov sods shouldn't present any more of a challenge than Whosit and Whatshisname-- YOU know who I'm talking about! From that other time?

[The others share a look of confusion.]

PB: Yes, them. The outcome should be precisely the same. I insist on it.

Seth: [Rolls his eyes] Riiight...

Brigham: [Worried] Erm... I was just thinking. Do you think it was a good idea for ALL of us to leave Alaska to be here in Owen Sounds tonight? I mean, won't the researchers, like, escape? Or call in the feds, or something?

[Once again, PB flicks his hand in the air carelessly.]

PB: Bah. I'm sure everything will be just the same when we go back as it was when we left off. Don't worry about a thing.

[Brigham looks unconvinced, but he lets it go at that. Meanwhile, Misty has started up her self-congratulations again -- to the intense irritation of Seth Maverick.]

Misty: I'm number one! I'm number one! I'm number one!

Seth: [Teeth gritting] I swear I'm gonna f*cking kill somebody...

PB: Yes! Good attitude, Mr. Maverick! Now hold onto that thought until your match! [Rubs his hands together gleefully] Oh, this will be a night of infamy!

[Thoughtful pause.]

PB: ...For the OTHER team! Yes, that's it! MWAHAHAHAHAA!

[The other five soon join in on the manic laughter until the very halls ring with the sound of their cackling, EVIL voices. Innocent bystanders are, understandably, dismayed.]

[Cut back to ringside.]

[Scene Cut to the Back]

[Michael McCormick is pacing outside the door of....]

[Holy Hell...]

[Jonathan Cross.]

Winstock: Didn't those two get into it a few days ago over in BWA?

Taylor: Yea...apparently McCormick hasn't gotten the idea that Cross, has an alter identity named Demise...

Winstock: Apparently...

[Knock Knock.]

Cross: Who is it??

McCormick: I think you know who it is.

[The door flings open, as Jonathan Cross, WWA Double Crown Champion emerges, face red with anger.]

Cross: What the hell do you want.

McCormick: I came to...

Cross: To what? Apologize Mikey? Is that it? You want to say your sorry, for splitting my fucking head open with a chair??

[McCormick...stunned, cocks his head at Cross]

McCormick: You think I care? You think I give a damn that I gave you a cut, when you've got my fucking wife, and are doing god KNOWS what to her??

[Now it's Cross' turn to be stunned...]

Cross: Huh?

McCormick: Don't play cutsie Cross...I know.

Cross: Glori?

McCormick: No shit face, my other wife.

[Cross, clearly not amused by this attack on his character, starts to get a little more annoyed...]

Cross: What the hell would I want with Rose? I hardly even know the damn chick.

McCormick: Look asshole, don't play games with me. Just tell me where she is, and I won't have to hurt you.

[Cross chuckles.]

[McCormick slams him against the wall]

McCormick: Look you sick fuck, either you tell me where she is, or I'm gonna turn you into a painting on the wall...

Cross: Let me go.

[Nothing..]

Cross: I'm giving you fair warning to let go of me, or I'll show you why I'm the Double Crown Champion.

[McCormick releases the hold, backing away slightly... still reddened in the face.]

McCormick: Where is she.

[Cross looks at him, in a mixture of confusion and rage...]

Cross: "Who the fuck are you, to attack me randomly... TWICE... and then barge in here, accusing me of taking your wife?"

[He's cut off by a hard right hand to the face, knocking him backward. He glances back up, to see McCormick...seething...]

McCormick: Cross...I wanted to be nice. I wanted to do it the easy way, but obviously you're not going to allow that to happen.

Cross: McCormick, you don't understa...

[Another right hand.]

McCormick: Don't. Bullshit. Me.

[Cross, irate at being sucker punched twice now, get directly into McCormick's face]

Cross: I. Don't. Have. Her.

McCormick: Fine...do it the hard way.

[McCormick turns to walk away, but quickly spins on his heel and delivers a swift boot to the gut of Jonathan Cross....]

_Cutting Edge!!_

McCormick: I don't buy it Cross. I just don't.

[Cross stirs...]

[McCormick grabs a chair...]

_CRRRRRAAAACCCKKK_

[Chairshot.]

McCormick: Fuck you.

[Cross stirs...]

[McCormick goes for a second chairshot, only to be met by a scissors take down, dropping him on the chair...face first]

Winstock: Yowch...

[Both men get to their feet, but Cross gets the upper advantage, being that McCormick is blinded by the blood spewing from his face.]

Cross: I gave you fair warning...

_WHAM!_

[Cross boots McCormick in the gut, and DDT's him onto the chair. McCormick stirs to get up again.]

Cross: But you didn't listen.

[Cross reaches for the sledgehammer near-by.]

Cross: Now you pissed me off.

_CRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKK!!!!!!_

Cross: Suit yourself.

Winstock: Oh...my...God.

[After a viscious sledgehammer to the face, McCormick is out cold, bleeding profusely, and a slightly battered Jonathan Cross, walks off the scene as EMT's come rushing to McCormick's aid.]

Taylor: Y'know...I get the feeling these two don't really like each other.

Winstock: Um. Yea. I have a funny feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of this in the coming weeks.

Introducing first...The Challenger....He weighs in 212 lbs. and hails from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. He is the former champion coming in tonight, looking to regain what he lost just a few weeks ago. He is "Kitsune-san" Rune ARCHER!!!!

[As the first notes of "Shining Collection" wave through the arena, the crowd begins to stir.]

#Garasu no bedo ni toraware no motion

Tesaguri de shukujo wa kamikudaku

Soliday na tail de midara na hane collection

Himei hodo mujaki na yoruga hoshii#

[After the first four lines, the former WWA National Champion slowly walks out of the entranceway, raising his arms in the air, emitting a huge reaction from the Canadian fans.]

#Kiss shining hitomi ni kuchizukete

Toke dasu hanabira mo jama ni naru

Make me shining irozuku shigeki no hate ni

Kagayakihajimeta maboroshi#

[Rune walks down to the ring slowly, as he looks around the massive attendance and set-up of the Shockwave Pay-Per-View. He looks towards the ring and smiles.]

#Shikai wo nukedashita panorama no dimension

Kanpeki na gitai wa tada furueru

Cheap na shokushu wa mitsu wo motomeru reaction

Tsumetakutemo hiwai na kimi ga mitai#

[Archer leaps over the ropes, and runs to the far side, scaling the second rope, and holding his arms out in the darkness, cameras going off like crazy.]

#Kiss shining kodoku wo katashidori

Karamaru koukai ga kuu wo kiru

Make me shining chirabaru kokoro no hahenra

Mabushiku sugisaru kibou ni#

[Rune jumps down off of the ropes, and begins to stretch.]

RA: And his opponent.....Weighing in at 287 lbs. and hailing from Eastbourne, England. He comes in tonight as the man that ended the impressive reign of his challenger tonight. In this rematch, he hopes to remove all doubt on who is the champion. I present to you the reigning WWA National Heavyweight Champion. He is Isaac GALWEIGH!!!!!!!!!

...Duuuummmmmm...
...Der..Dur..Duum...Duuum...
...Dummmmm...
...Duuuurrrrmmmmm...

[The unmistakable start of the White Stripes '7 Nation Army' brings the fans to their feet.]

...Duuuummmmmm...
...Der..Dur..Duum...Duuum...
...Dummmmm...
...Duuuurrrrmmmmm...

[As it signals the arrival of the WWA National Champion... Isaac Galweigh.]

~# Im gonna fight em off
A seven nation army couldnt hold me back
Theyre gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And Im talking to myself at night
Because I cant forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone #~

[With purpose Galweigh strides out eyes locked on the ring. Galweigh wears a pair of black trunks, boots, knee and elbow pads. Over his shoulder is slung the WWA National Title.]

~# Dont want to hear about it
Every single ones got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
Im gonna serve it to you
And that aint what you want to hear,
But thats what Ill do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home #~

[Galweigh's blonde hair hangs over his ears, centre parted on the top. The gaze of his blue eyes is yet to leave the opponent stood in the ring which he reaches and pulls himself upto the apron using the ropes. Galweigh steps between the ropes and raises his fists in the air, WWA National Title clenched between them.]

~# Im going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
Im gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And Im bleeding, and Im bleeding, and Im bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me and I will think
No more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home #~

[Galweigh hands the title belt to the referee and paces the ring, eager to get started.]

[DING!!!! DING!!!! DING!!!!]

[There's the bell as Isaac starts to pace around while Archer calmly stands in his corner. The ref tells them to lock up. Isaac goes to the center of the ring while Archer slowly stalks him until they finally lock up. Isaac rears back and shoves Archer down to the mat in a show of brute power. Archer rolls backwards to his feet and shakes off the effects while Isaac stretches against the ropes. Archer goes in for another collar and elbow and again, Isaac shoves him to the mat.]

CW: I know Archer is one of the best technicians out there but he can't use that if he keeps getting shoved to the mat every thirty seconds.

ET: It's more like ten seconds but you are right. Archer has to break down that vertical base of Isaac if he wants any chance in this match.

[Archer grabs the ropes and picks himself and looks around at the cheering fans while Isaac just stands there and urges Archer to come and get some. The fans get on their feet and start stomping and cheering on both competitors. Archer and Isaac slowly circle each other in the ring until they lock up once again. Isaac finally comes away with a side headlock and tries to tighten the pressure while Archer gets the hands up into Isaac's face. Archer connects with numerous forearm shots to the ribs and pushes Isaac into the near corner and the ref asks for the break. Isaac lets go of the hold while Archer backs up slowly and waits for him in the center of the ring.]

CW: Archer seems to be goading Isaac into something in particular.

[Isaac stretches out on the ropes before coming back in for another tie-up but Archer plants a perfecly placed knee into the gut of Galweigh, then springs off the ropes in front of him. He comes running towards the bent-over Galweigh from behind. When Archer reaches Galweigh he somersaults forward, rolling over Isaac's back until planting him face first with an inverted face driver. Rune follows up by running to the ropes to his left, then entering into a cartwheel, followed by a backflip OVER Galweigh. As Archer plants his hands on the mat, his shins spring off of the ropes in an inverted handspring. When his feet hit the canvas once again, he keeps his momentum going by jumping in the air and spinning forward, crashing onto Galweigh with a huge 450º Splash!]

ET: Archer with a cover.

1...

2...

CW: Isaac with the powerful kickout!!!

ET: But, Archer just set the tone with that huge chain of events.

[Archer gets back to his feet and waits for Isaac to get up before he continues to drive in the knee into the midsection multiple times before dropping Isaac to the mat with a forearm to the back of the neck. Isaac tries to catch his breath and get back to his feet when Archer takes him over with a side headlock takeover into a fujiwara armbar but Isaac fights to keep his hands together. Archer continues to go for the armbar while Isaac tries to get to the bottom rope and finally does. The ref calls for the break and Archer breaks the hold while Isaac rolls out of the ring to the outside.]

CW: Isaac, doing the smart thing and taking a breather on the outside.

[The ref steps up and starts his count.]

[Archer quickly up to his feet while Isaac looks a little slow before rolling back in. Archer extends a hand and looks for a greco-roman knuckle lock. Isaac thinks about it before getting his hand out and before he locks up, Archer connects with an enziguiri.]

[Archer grapevines the legs and locks his own leg into place for an STF but Isaac gets the hands up to block it. Archer pulls back on the hands and the head of Isaac, but he won't give it up. Archer lets go of the hold and gets back up to his feet but starts to shift around his leg. He clasps his hands and falls back into a STO.]

CW: Great neck bridge by Archer as he pulls back on the forehead of Isaac.

ET: Ohhh! Forearm to the side of the head and another!

[Isaac breaks the hold as both men are getting to their feet. Archer strikes first with a front kick to the chest but Isaac catches the leg and flips Archer back but Archer lands on his feet. Isaac grabs him and goes for a front facelock. Isaac lifts him up but Archer floats over and grabs a back waistlock. Archer pushes Isaac to the ropes and goes for a roll-up but Isaac hangs on to the rope. Archer rolls back to his feet and waits for Isaac to turn around before going for a roundhouse kick to the face but Isaac ducks and comes back with a discus clothesline that knocks Archer head over heels.]

CW: DAMN!!!! Isaac just tried to decapitate Rune Archer with that clothesline.

[Archer tries to shake it off when Isaac catches Archer with a boot to the midsection and drives him down with a pump-handle slam that shakes the ring with impact as the fans jump on their feet. Isaac goes for a cover.]

[Archer kicks out while Isaac grabs Archer and extends the right arm and follows up with numerous kneedrops to the shoulder before going for an armbar.]

[Archer kicks out when Isaac breaks the hold. Isaac brings Archer up to his feet and sends him to the ropes with an irish whip. Isaac catches him but Archer floats over the top. Isaac turns around into an out to in crescent kick.]

CW: Archer caught Isaac right in the mouth with that one.

[Rune grabs the arm and winds Isaac's arm up, and nails him with a short-arm Yakuza kick. He follows it up with a floatover reverse DDT, then heads up to the top rope. He actually steps onto the metal ring post, walks forward onto the top turnbuckle, and launches himself up with that foot, stretching his other foot behind him. He takes off, getting alot of air, and gracefully turns onto his stomach, landing with a beautiful Shooting Star Press!]

ET: And Archer comes right back with another high-impact move from the skies.

[Archer goes for the cover and hooks the leg.]

[Archer grabs the right arm of Isaac and twists it with an arm ringer before locking on a hammerlock. Archer throws Isaac shoulder first into the turnbuckles. Isaac grabs his arm in pain while trying to get away but Archer grabs the arm and climbs the turnbuckles.]

ET: Damn, I think this could suck heavily for Isaac right about now.

CW: Archer drops down to the floor snapping that arm back on the ropes.

[Archer quickly back onto the ring apron, grabs the top rope for a slingshot vault into a moonsault but Isaac gets the knees up at the last moment. Isaac continues to hold that arm and reaches out and hooks an inside cradle.]

1...

2...

[Archer quickly kicks out and gets to his feet. Galweigh gets to his feet and knocks down Archer with a massive forearm across the back and shoulder of Archer. Isaac picks Archer up for a powerbomb. Rune tries to counter with a hurricanrana, but Galweigh plants a foot over Rune's arm to prevent it. Rune swings back upwards, slinging himself over Galweigh, grabbing onto his back. He sits out, with Isaac's back bending over Archer's shoulder, in an innovative backbreaker.]

ET: OUCH!!!! That makes my back scream out in pain and I'm sitting over here.

[He waits for Isaac to get up before kicking away with rapid-fire kicks to the torso and the shins before connecting with a dropkick to the arm. Isaac drops to the mat in pain when Archer drags him up to his knees and steps over into a juji-gatame arm bar.]

CW: Isaac didn't lock the hands so Archer's pulling back as hard as he can on that damaged arm.

[Isaac's yelling out in pain but he's trying to get his bearings when he tries to turn into the arm bar to try and take away some of the pressure. Archer lets go of the arm bar and rolls to his feet. Isaac is very slow in getting up when Archer pulls him up and twists the arm again with another arm ringer.]

ET: Archer is really wrenching on that arm. I guess he thought it was better than the gift shop.

[Isaac grabs Archer's wrist and reverses into an arm ringer of his own. Isaac pulls Archer into a back elbow to the jaw before taking him down with a side russian legsweep.]

CW: Isaac getting back to his feet but Archer looks like he got the wind knocked out of him.

[Isaac picks Rune up for a huge vertical suplex, and holds him up there for a second. Rune kicks his legs in the air, then swivels around, and drops Isaac with a reverse DDT to the knee, holding on. He then flips forward into a somersault Ace Crusher, still hanging on. He then stands up again, swoops under Galweigh to get him in a Fireman's Carry, and pushes him to the side and sitting out, dropping Galweigh in a huge Falcon Arrow variation!]

CW: NO!!!!!! ISAAC WITH THE SHOULDER UP!!!!!!!

[Archer gets to his feet and leaps onto the top turnbuckle as flashbulbs go off in the crowd when he leaps off with a flying headbutt but Isaac rolls out of the way at the last moment.]

1...

2...

CW: NO!!!! Archer with the shoulder up.

[Isaac pulls Archer by the hair up to his knees and locks on a modified double chickenwing full nelson.]

ET: Archer's screaming in pain.

CW: That type of move puts a ton of pressure on the back as a whole. It doesn't help the shoulders either.

Isaac gets to his feet and pulls Archer to his feet and whips him into the ropes before taking him up and over with a powerslam. Isaac goes to the near corner and steps up to the second rope before leaping off with an elbowdrop but Archer moves out of the way. Archer barely gets to his feet and grabs the arms and locks Isaac into a short arm scissors.]

CW: I would think that Archer would be in desperation mode but he still thinks that he can win.

ET: If he didn't, he would have given up by now.

[Archer maintains the pressure but Isaac won't tap out. Archer releases the hold. Archer grabs a back waistlock but Isaac fires with a swinging back elbow. Isaac connects with another and breaks the hold. Isaac hits the ropes and runs into a discuss palm strike to the face.]

Isaac backs up to the ropes from the impact when Archer charges at him but Isaac ducks and sends him over the top but Archer lands on the ring apron.

CW: Isaac could be looking at a dislocated shoulder if that keeps happening.

[Archer rolls back into the ring and grabs the arm before he stomps at the inner elbow of the arm before stepping over and locking in Stranglehold Beta. Isaac's reaching for the ropes but he's nowhere near them.]

ET: Archer has it locked on just about in the middle of the ring.

CW: Isaac still won't quit though!

[Archer lets go of the hold and falls back into a juji-gatame but Isaac locks the hands and turns into it.]

CW: Archer's still trying to pull on Isaac's arm!

ET: Isaac puts all his weight onto Archer!

[Archer gets the shoulder up and lets go of the hold while Isaac tries to get back to his feet.]

CW: That arm's just sort of dangling.

[The ref goes and checks on Isaac to see if he wants to give it up but he shakes his head no when Archer delivers more stiff kicks to the arm taking Isaac down with a drop toe hold and fires away with numerous palm strikes to the back of the head. Archer gets back to his feet and stalks Isaac while he tries to get up. Isaac stumbles about but makes it to his feet when Archer goes for an inverted DDT but Isaac feels it coming when Archer turns him around and whips him into the ropes and goes for a back drop but Isaac stops in his tracks and locks on a standing scissors. Isaac tries to bring Archer up but Isaac's arm gives out on him. Isaac walks off in pain when Archer sneaks up behind him. Issac turns around and gets caught with a spinebuster slam before Archer rolls through into a cover.]

ET: Isaac with another kickout.

[Archer gets to his feet and pulls Isaac up to his feet and grabs a waistlock but Isaac fires back with an elbow. Isaac goes for another one but Archer ducks underneath. Isaac turns around and rings Archer's bell to counter out of it. Archer grabs his head in pain when Isaac grabs hold of him and drills him into the mat.]

CW: FALCON SLAM OUT OF NOWHERE!!!!!!!

[Isaac follows up with a cover and hooks the leg with the good arm.]

ET: I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!! ISAAC PULLED IT OFF AND WON THE MATCH!!!!

[The ref grabs the National Title and places it on Isaac's chest and raises his arm in victory while Archer continues to lay on the mat. Isaac slowly gets to his feet and helps Archer to his feet and gives him a handshake for such a tough match. Archer just nods his head and rolls out of the ring while Issac climbs up the turnbuckles and lifts the National Championship high in the air.]
