(The setting opens in a filled arena in Charollette, North Carolina, wehre Stunnin Steve stands at the top of the entranceway before a sodl out crowd.) Stunnin Steve: Fans, as you all know, this past week, a lot of people needlessly died in Colorado as a result of violence and terrorism. I'd like to give them this moment of silence and a ten bell salute in Memorandum. (The crowd goes silent and the bell sounds ten times.) Stunnin Steve: We as professional wrestlers in no way condone violence as a means to end problems, because it is a means to an end. We all have our pent up frustrations toward each other, whether it be because we were picked on in school or we get griped at by the boss 24/7 or whatever the case may be, but I have chosen to send Shawn Steele to the schools across America o spread the word that violence is not an answer. Terroristic threatening is no soltion, you just make matters worse. but for now, I would like to introduce you all to the new Comm.... I mean GOVERNOR of the NEW... (The fans begin to pop as Steve continues.) Stunnin Steve: Neither is he the most well known wrestler to ever grace this sport, nor is he the very best, but what time he worked in teh ring, he helped me out a lot behind the scenes, and helped me produce the show for you all to enjoy. Fans, welcome back GOVERNOR Wilson Kane!!! (The fans pop as Wilson Kane walks out to "Hail To The Chief".) Mike Ixnay: This is the new commisioner of the NEW? Larry Nabisco: This is good. He's young and motivated, I'm sure he'll do well... Stunnin Steve: At this time, I will turn over this segment of the show, to the new Governor... Kane??? (Stunnin Steve shakes Kanes hand, hands him the mic and walks out to chorus of cheers.) Wilson Kane: Well, it feels good to be back in a ring... Yya know, I was given the opportunity for this job about a week ago, and I have since looked at a few things on teh roster, and who signed up for the Hardcore Cup Tourney... I have examined the roster well, and come to this conclusion... the Hardcore Cup will be held back a few weeks... (The fans begin to boo) Wilson Kane: I'm sorry, but we just don't have enough people in the tourney to get things started... (At that, The OOZING Sore enters the ring and approaches Wilson Kane.) Mike Ixnay: What is The OOZING Sore doing out here? OOZING Sore: Mr. Kane, if you will please... I am not the biggest fan of Stunnin Steve's out there. and I don't like the fans much either... (The fans begin to boo The Sore) OOZING Sore: ...but the people like that fat drunken bastard in the front row pays our salaries, and if they want it hardcore... they get it hardcore... I've been in some of the most brutal bloodbaths in this industry, and I'll take on ANY damn body... Wilson Kane: OOZER, if you insist, I'll give you this... Viper as of now has a bye into the quarter finals. If you can beat him... THIS Monday, you will get into the quarter finals instead... (the fans pop) OOZING Sore: Sounds fine to me... if I have to whip all the punks of the NEW to get to the Hardcore Cup, I'll play anyway I have to... as a matter of fact, bring the little whippersnapper out here right now and I'll give him a lesson in hardnocks 101 right now in front of everyone!!! (At that, Viper approaches the ring with a discussted look on his face) Mike Ixnay: Viper is on his way to the ring, and he looks mad!!! Viper: OOZING Sore, you call me a whippersnapper and a worthless rook. Well, after your attack on Stunnin Steve this past week, he went to the back and he got on the horn... he called up the lawyers to get GRENDEL an extension on his vacation, and is trying to get a hold of PDC and Trent Raven who are vacationing right now... I over heard them talking last night and we talked it over, and as of last night... I'M THE NEWEST MEMBER OF THE POWERS THAT BE!!! (THe crowd pops) Viper: And if you have a problem with any of The Powers, then you have a problem with me. I say you and I give the crowd what they want... I'll take you in a last man standing match this Monday and the winner will be in the quarter finals. How about that? OOZING Sore: Bring it, and you will feel the burn little boy... Wilson Kane: Fans, this one is about to blow the roof... let's go to you Mike and Larry to kick things off for the 1999 edition of Survival of the Fittest!!! Mike Ixnay: Fans, welcome to Survival of the Fittest 1999! As you saw at the opening, Shawn Steele will be tourning North America this month as a goodwill ambassador from NEW as a result of what happened at Columbine this past week to discuss violence and terrorism in the schools.

The Drifter is one of the greatest names ever in the NEW... (Bret Hart's theme music plays as Trey Reed approaches the ring) Mike Ixnay: Here comes Trey Reed. This guy hasn't been in the NEW very long, but he's really built a strong fan base with what time he's been here... Larry Nabisco: A little bit of that rookie energy has been showing in him.

Larry Nabisco: He seems to have gone back to his old ways... no dark druids, just him and him alone... Stunnin Steve: Mark, let me be the first to welcome you back to NEW... Mark Brian: Steve, let me say that it is a pleasure to be here in front of all of these fans and to once again display my sportsmanship and my working spirit to these fans. I once brought these fans some good quality wrestling as it should be... no crap, just wrestling, and they got thier money's worth when Mark Brian was in building... (The fans give PMB a big pop) Mark Brian: Steve, standing across from the ring with you right now, it makes me remember some of the greats of this sport... "The Ĝutlaw" Jason Bagwell, Destructo, Trent Raven, Steve Grant, Hawk Manson, EnFuego, Ares, "Bad Ass" Brian Marcotte, The Renaissance Man, "Killer" John Williams, The Man They Call GRENDEL, Stunnin Steve, and probably one of my favorites... "Da Bomb" Tim Haught, not to mention countless others... (Stunnin Steve begins to laugh) Mark Brian: What??? What is so funny??? Stunnin Steve: For a moment, I thought I heard you say that Tim Haught was one of your favorites... Mark Brian: Well, he is one of the greatest NEW and IWA World Heavyweight Champions of all time... what? Stunnin Steve: That cabagepatch doll? The only reason why he got the NEW and the IWA World Heavyweight titles is because he whined and cried to teh promoters in thier sleep. He got the belt because we got tired of hearing him, so I set him up against Chris Fry, and they gave him some other ham and egger in the IWA... what a loser, and as I recall, he didn't wrestle a single card leading to his match with Fry, and he wrestled a bunch of no name rooks at that time to hold on to the belt... do Buck Master, Crush and Chino ring a bell? Mark Brian: Steve, I would appreciate you not talking about people in in such a bad manner behind their back in my presence... Stunnin Steve: Hey you stupid bastard, I run this place... don't tell me what the hell I can and can't do you stupid mother f---er!!! Mark Brian: Steve!!! I am a man of god, please do not speak in that tone... Stunnin Steve: So you wanna give me your christian bullcrap? Let me spell it out for you you worthless puke...

Mike Ixnay: Matt and The Sore are attending to Mark Brian right now as they run off... fans, we are ready for our next matchup. This matchup will be an EXTREME best-of-three-falls match between Wolvie and TYRANT. Nabisco: That's right Mike. I saw Wolvie earlier today, and he looks really focused for this match. Ixnay: I'd have to say the odds are against the Alpha Storm member ere though, Larry, 'cuz from what little we've seen of TYRANT, he looks like a very dangerous individual. ("Hell's Bells" by AC/DC theme music plays, unexpectedly) Ixnay: What's this? (Ring announcer Micheal Buttbuffer is in the ring, announcing the man coming down to the ringside area) Michel Buttbuffer: Ladies and gentlemen, coming to the ring at this time is one of four men who will be participating later tonight in the match for the World Heavyweight Title. He is a former NEW World Heavyweight Champion and a current 7-time co-World Tag Team Champion, "Blue Inferno" Steve Grant!! (Grant comes out wearing his half of the World Tag Team Championship, and gets a huge pop from the crowd. He makes his way to the announcer's table) Grant: Mind if I join you guys? Nabisco: By all means Grant, it's a free country. Grant: Thanks. (Grant sits down and puts on a headset) Grant: Alright, let's call this match!

He stands six feet, two inches tall and weighs in at 232 pounds. He is the master of the Double Armbar Submission, also known as the DAS. He is a former NEW World Heavyweight Champion, WOLVERINE!! Ixnay: Well, Wolvie's headin' down to the ring right now, and look at his face! He is psyched for this match. Grant: Yup. You can feel the intensity right here Mike. Ixnay: Well, the former World Champion will definitely have his work cut out for him today. Back now to Micheal Buttbuffer. ("I Love It Loud" by KISS plays as the lights dim and red laser lights focus on the entryway) Buttbuffer: His opponent is one of the newest wrestlers to join NEW. He stands 7'0", and weighs in at 402 and one-quarter pounds. His signature move is The Last Regret. From New York City, he is TYRANT!! Ixnay: Well, this dangerous man is headed to the ring right now. Nabisco: That guy really freaks me out. Ixnay: Well yeah, you're easily freaked. Grant: Ain't it the truth. Nabisco: Yeah whatever. Grant: Nevertheless it's fairly obvious to see, just from the size of this guy, that he really means business here in New Extreme Wrestling. Ixnay: He calls himself the Innovator of Evil, and I guess we'll see just how far he'll go today. This is an Extreme match, best two out of three falls wins the contest. Grant: This'll really be a contest Mike. Wolverine'll be playin' the role of underdog in my mind because of the tremendous size advantage TYRANT has. 7'0", over 400 pounds of TYRANT against 6'2", 232-pound Wolverine. Ixnay: That's true, Wolvie's definitely the underdog but he's won in this type of situation before. Nabisco: Yeah he has, we'll see what he's got against this mammoth man. (bell rings) Wolvie v. TYRANT (best two out of three, falls count anywhere) Ixnay: The bell has rung, and immediately TYRANT wants to do a test of strength! Nabisco: Oh gimme a break. Grant: Wolvie couldn't possibly reach that high. Ixnay: Wolvie is not impressed and he's goin' for a clothesline on the big man! TYRANT staggers just a little bit but that's it! Wolvie's gonna try again... uh-oh TYRANT grabbed him and throat-tossed him! Grant: Wolvie'd better be careful here, or he could end up givin' up this first fall pretty quickly! Ixnay: He very well could Steve. Now TYRANT's got him... DDT! He's gonna go for a cover! 1-2-NO Wolvie kicked out... barely. Nabisco: There's a lotta power behind TYRANT's moves, Mike. This is a man on a mission. Grant: You bet he's a man on a mission. Now TYRANT's goin' for a short-arm clothesline but WOLVIE DUCKED! Wolvie's going for a T-bone suplex... but he can't get TYRANT up! He's tryin' his best but to no avail... now TYRANT's got Wolvie... and hit a knee to the forehead. Wolvie goes down hard. Ixnay: Wolvie's gotta get up but he's not... now TYRANT's pickin' up Wolvie... and he's gonna go for the Last Regret right here! TYRANT has Wolvie's head between his legs... gonna start the Last Regret with the powerbomb portion.... but NO Wolvie's tryin' to fight his way out of this thing! He's hittin' the big man with numerous punches and elbows to the midsection... TYRANT's flinching... but TYRANT'S GOT HIM UP!! Powerbomb into a chokeslam! Grant: That's the Last Regret!! Ixnay: ONE-TWO-THREE!! That's fall #1 for TYRANT!! Grant: TYRANT's celebrating, now he's going up to the top rope... Nabisco: He's taking too much time... Grant: TYRANT's going for a top-rope elbowdrop BUT WOLVIE SAW IT COMING AND GOT HIS LEGS UP!! TYRANT got nailed right in the jaw! Ixnay: Now Wolvie's up and firing back with chops! He throws TYRANT into the ropes AND HIT A BELLY-TO-BACK SUPLEX ON HIM!! Grant: Uh-oh Wolvie's gettin' stronger as the match wears on... not too long ago he wasn't able to get TYRANT up like that. Ixnay: Wolvie's now got TYRANT against the ropes and he clotheslines him onto the floor! Wolvie's gonna go outside to join him... and he just took Penzer's seat at ringside! Grant: Alright Wolverine... time to let that mean streak show through! DO IT!! DO IT!! Ixnay: Wolvie's gonna go for the chair shot but TYRANT moved outta the way! TYRANT with the big boot, and Wolvie got the chair face-first. Nabisco: TYRANT's gonna try and cover the man right here on the floor. Grant: Well it's falls count anywhere. Ixnay: 1-2-NO A KICKOUT by Wolvie! That was close ladies and gentlemen! Grant: It most certainly was AND NOW WOLVIE'S FIGHTING BACK AGAIN! Ixnay: Wolvie's punchin' and kickin' frantically trying to regain the advantage. WOLVIE WITH A KICK TO THE GROIN and now he's got the advantage, as TYRANT's really staggering from that kick. Grant: That looked like that hurt. Nabisco: As much as the Inferno Kick? Grant: More so, 'cuz with the Inferno Kick at least most of the pain happens while you're unconscious. TYRANT's wide awake for this pain. Ixnay: He certainly is and right now Wolvie's trying to take advantage... Wolvie with a DDT! He's now gonna apply the DAS right here on the floor! Nabisco: I don't think TYRANT's conscious for this one. Ixnay: The referee's checking by raising TYRANT's... um, leg... ONE....TWO.... THREE... you're right he's out! Grant: Now the score's tied at one! Who will win the decisive third fall? Ixnay: Wolvie's refusing to leggo of the DAS! He's keepin' TYRANT in it despite the referee's protests! Grant: The referee's going over there to physically get Wolvie off of TYRANT... and Wolvie's finally releasing the hold. Wolvie's now picking up TYRANT... OOOOOOH TYRANT with a DDT of his own! ONE-TWO- no a kickout by Wolvie! Nabisco: Just in time! I'll tell you, these two men are fierce competitors, and neither man has been givin' an inch tonight! Ixnay: Absolutely Larry, and now TYRANT's got Wolvie from behind... German suplex into a bridge! ONE-TWO- no Wolvie again kicks out. Grant: Wolvie needs to do something to get back into this match. He's having remarkable luck thus far, but it can't last forever, can it? Ixnay: No, it can't, not without any offense... now TYRANT with a spinebuster! ONE-TWO-another kickout by the Alpha Storm member! Grant: TYRANT's gonna try'n end this thing right here with the Last Regret... Ixnay: Yeah that's what he's gonna try to do... HE'S GOT WOLVIE UP!! But Wolvie's firing away with a barrage of punches! TYRANT throws Wolvie off his shoulders and right into the crowd! Grant: OOOOH hope those crowd members have insurance, they're gonna need it. Nabisco: Let's just say that NEW's attorney fees aren't comin' out of my paycheck, thank you very much! Ixnay: These two men are now fighting in the stands! Talk about reachin' out to one's own fans! Grant: YEOW somebody just poured his cold beer onto TYRANT's back! Ixnay: What a stupid thing for a fan to do... now TYRANT's got his attention on that fan! The fan's trying to get outta the way but TYRANT's got him!!! Grant: Last Regret time!!! Ixnay: The Last Regret it is, and that fan just landed right on his back... ouch... the paramedics are gonna have to get him outta there. Meanwhile TYRANT turns around... WOLVIE SPLASHED HIM IN THE FACE WITH A BEER! TYRANT's having a hard time seeing... Wolvie's gonna go for a DDT!! Grant: Nooooo... TYRANT knows exactly what he's trying to do... Ixnay: And TYRANT reverses into a vertical suplex!! Wolvie's up and is running after TYRANT, but it's TYRANT with the big boot to the face! Grant: The big man has him in position... Ixnay: He does... TYRANT's got him... LAST REGRET!!! ONE-TWO-THREE!!! TYRANT WINS!! Winner: TYRANT by pinfall Grant: TYRANT wins a very hard-fought match, and we'll be back right after this.

This guy is going into this match the underdog of the fight, but we have seen him in fights against veterans like EnFuego and he has fared weel. Larry Nabisco: I'd say that this young rookie has really done good against all odds as of yet... he is just up against the wrong man at the wrong time though. Just think of all the gusy Manson has faced... Mike Ixnay: Trey Reed is going to have to pull out all the stops to overcome Manson in this contest as we await the entrance of the former United States Heavyweight champion... ("Hell's Bells" by AC/DC plays as Hawk Manson approaches the ring) Mike Ixnay: Here he comes, the man that is basically teh fan favorite in this one...

Larry Nabisco: Really? They gave that old bastard a ticket? That sucks... Mike Ixnay: He's up there in the nosebleed section, and he seems to be scouting the talent in the ring... Hawk is forcing Trey into the neutral corner and the ref is calling for a break... Manson backs off, and he goes for an elbow, but TREY MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND HAWK INTO THE CORNER!!! Steve Grant: I havent seen Manson lose a match since his return have you? Mike Ixnay: Good point, but Mr. Reed, a relative newcomer and an unknown to our company has been proving himself to be a remire Cruiserweight as of late... making it to this point in the TV Title Tourney... maybe he can eventually get a shot at Nick Wolf's Title? Steve Grant: Maybe... Mike Ixnay: Trey is working Manson out of he corner and vertical suplex to the center of the ring. Trey is staying on him with a sideheadlock.

Join us on a three day vacation as you will see all the favorites, and a few guests are expected to be on hand, so come on down!!! (Hawk and Wolf help Grant back to his seat and walk off with the TV and Cruiserweight Titles) Mike Ixnay: Man Grant, you took a beating in there... is that a sign of things to come tonight? Steve Grant: Screw you, and Larry, are you even able to do commentary right now as high as you are? Larry Nabisco: You bet... Mike Ixnay: Crackheaded son of a whore... up next is a grudge match that is just on the show for the blood, spills and chills.... you fans wanted it? You're gonna get it... Stunnin Steve will face Matt Foster in teh most devastating match ever in NEW history... There's a lot of personal issues brewin' between Matt Foster and the former World Champion, Stunnin' Steve. Grant: Yeah, Foster got injured at the hands of Steve and he's lookin' for some revenge here tonight. This Japanese shark wire cage death match would be the perfect way for Foster to get it. Nabisco: Or he might end up getting hurt even worse. Who knows, it's possible Foster's need for revenge can be clouding his judgement about how long he should sit out before returning. Revenge can be a powerful motivation in small doses, but if one wants revenge so badly that it becomes the only thing on their minds, they're only gonna end up hurting themselves. Ixnay: Uhhhhh... yeah what he said. Let's take you once more to Micheal Buttbuffer. ("Would" by Alice in Chains plays as Matt Foster comes out of the entryway, accompanied by Demonica) Buttbuffer: Ladies and gentlemen, introducing first a former NEW World Cruiserweight Champion. He is one of the most hardcore wrestlers of our time, and he is the master of the MF-Plex. He stands 6'2", 230 pounds and comes from the mean streets of Cleveland, Ohio. Accompanied by his valet, Demonica, he is MATT FOSTER!! Ixnay: Well Matt Foster's the first one to enter the cage, and this will truly be a very interesting match. There are all sorts of weapons inside the cage. Bats, tables, chains, ropes, pipes, chairs, soda cans, two-by-fours and even a telephone and a boombox are in the ring right now! Grant: This match is gonna go down in history as somethin' to truly be remembered. ("The Launch" by Boston plays as Stunnin' Steve and GRENDEL make their ways down to the ring) Buttbuffer: His opponent is the leader of the Powers That Be! He stands 6'8", and weighs 275 pounds. His signature move is The Stunner, and he is a former NEW World Heavyweight Champion. Accompanied by GRENDEL, he is Stunnin' Steve!!! Grant: Look at Stunnin' Steve... he's just the picture of overconfidence mixed with insecurity. He's hangin' out here with his buddy, but at the same time he's struttin' to the ring. Ixnay: Well I'm sure Stunnin' Steve has to be at least a little bit concerned about going into this cage, and at the most absolutely terrified. This is one man you don't want to make angry. Nabisco: You've got that right. Stunnin Steve v. Matt Foster (Japanese Shark-Wire Cage: Death Match) Ixnay: Stunnin' Steve's in the ring, the cage is sealed and the match has begun! Immediately Foster runnin' at Steve.... SENT HIM RIGHT INTO THE SHARK-WIRE CAGE!! Now Foster is just pounding Steve! Grant: DAMN Foster's openin' a can right now... Ixnay: He certainly is... and now Foster's got him... and hits a brainbuster! Foster's pickin' him up again and hitting a DDT! Grant: OOOOH Steve got DDT'd right onto the table! Now Foster's chokin' Steve out with the chain! Ixnay: The referee is ordering Foster to let go of the hold... now Foster does but he immediately re-applies it! Grant: Stunnin' Steve looks in real trouble here. HAHA serves him right. Ixnay: Now Foster's picking up Steve... Nabisco: Uh-oh he's gonna go for the MF-Plex! Ixnay: That's exactly right... AND HE NAILS IT! He's gonna do it again... GOT HIM! ONE-TWO... Grant: OH NO GRENDEL IS IN THE CAGE! Ixnay: He got in through the door and made the save! This match is no-DQ so there's nothin' to stop GRENDEL! Nabisco: That's right... Ixnay: Grendel has the baseball bat, and he's beating down on Foster with it... now he picks him up and CHOKESLAMS HIM RIGHT THROUGH THE TABLE!! Grant: This is sickening. Grendel's putting Steve on top of Foster... the referee's counting... one-two-three. No way Foster was gonna get up from that. Ixnay: Now the Powers are jumping Foster in the ring!! Grant: That's it, I've had enough of this bullshit. (Grant puts down his headset, gets up from the booth and heads toward the cage door) Ixnay: Steve Grant's gonna try and help out Matt Foster! Nabisco: That he is, Mike. He's in the cage, right behind Grendel! Grendel doesn't know he's in there! He turns around... INFERNO KICK RIGHT IN THE JAW! Grant nailed Grendel with that kick, and now he's tellin' Steve to get the hell outta Dodge... Ixnay: Stunnin' Steve's takin' the hint and hittin' the road... Nabisco: Grant's callin' the paramedics, looks like somebody's going to the hospital... Mike Ixnay: Up next is the Wargames match between Alpha Storm and Death Valley, fans, let's take a short time out as we set the cage up for our next bout... stay tuned!!! (The camera cuts to a rerun of Transformers The Movie and picks up at the fight to the death between Optimus Prime and Megatron. The movie plays thourgh the burial and funeral scene of Optimus Prime, the reincarnation of Megatron and his minions, and the death of Starscream as Megatron returns to the spaceship (sorry, can't remember that character's name). Finally, as the movie approaches the point where Hot Rod and Rusty are trapped on the junkyard planet, the movie cuts off and goes back to the arena in Charollette, North Carolina.) Mike Ixnay: Man, those guys dick around when it comes to putting a cage up don't they? You can cath Transformers The Movie on Beta and VHS for about 30 bucks on th internet now, but after the PPV, we will have the guys from Reaves/Murray Enterprises play the movie in its etirety for you Trantsformers fanatics... Larry Nabisco: That was the best damn animated movie of all time... Mike Ixnay: I'll say... ("Comforabbly Numb" by Pink Floyd plays as Sport Jones approaches the ring) Mike Ixnay: And that means it is time to start the match... Sport Jones is on his way to the ring right now... and... I just don't like the stuff he's done lately... he turned his back on Jason Wylde for crying out loud... Larry Nabisco: Well, this "Big Pappa Pump wannabe" has been doing a lot of questionable things lately... I mean, look at that body. You can't tell me that that is all natural... ("Machinehead" by Bush plays as A-Bomb Bill approaches the ring.) Mike Ixnay: Here comes A-Bomb Bill, and if you mean steroids, NEW is a drug free working environmen... Larry Nabisco: I didn't necessarily mean that, but I mean, I smoke wed on almost every show... Mike Ixnay: You got a point... (bell rings) Alpha Storm (Ares, EnFuego, Drifter, A-Bomb Bill, Wolvie) v.

The last team member or team members standing wins this one... Larry Nabisco: Bill runs to Jones with the steel chains, and Sport ducks... SPORT WITH AN OPEN FIELD TACKLE TO START THINGS OFF... Mike Ixnay: But Sport is holding his head... what's up with this? Larry Nabisco: I dunno, but Bill seems to be taking the shot very well... Bill is up and he is pulling something out from under his hockey jersey... IT'S A STEEL CHAIR!!! HE HAD THAT CHAIR UNDER HIS SHIRT... Mike Ixnay: That's one way to beat them... Bill is back up with the chair and he drops the chain on top of Sport... BILL IS HITTING HIM WITH THE CHAIR!!! I've just been told that DV won the coin toss in the back... Larry Nabisco: What???

Drifter and Bill are doubleteaming Jones, trying to get him to let go of the bottom rope... Larry Nabisco: This is a smart move by Jones, but I have no idea how long he can hold off like this... Mike Ixnay: Well, they're prying his hands off of the rope now, and I think I can speak for us all when I say that Jones is f---ed!!! Larry Nabisco: That's a mouthfull... Mike Ixnay: Bill and Drifter are pulling up Jones and DOUBLEPOWERTBOMB ON JONES BY DRIFTER AND BILL... Drifter is going for the Texas Cloverleaf... Drifter has it sinched, and Bill is putting Jones in a double chikenwing of sorts... I think Alpha Storm found a new way of saying "bob on it"... Larry Nabisco: That was tasteless... fans: 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1... (buzzer sounds) Mike Ixnay: And here comes Steve Grant of DV!!! He was a brodcast journalist earlier tonight and now he is in the ring... what a talent... Larry Nabisco: I'll say.... Mike Ixnay: Enough of the sarcasm... Jones is still in this compromising predictiment, and Grant is in now... GRANT WITH AN INFERNO KICK TO BILL!!! Larry Nabisco: Dumbass, now Sport is out or good... he's not even moving... Mike Ixnay: Drifter is off of him now, and he walks right into an Inferno Kick!!! Grant is checking up on Jones now, and he may need some help...

Reaves stares at this glam rocker and follows him.) Mike Ixnay: I get the feeling we've seen this guy before that Reaves was talking to just now... this is creepy... Fuego and Drifter are working over Grant now, and Grant ducks a clotheline from Fuego and then one from Drifter...

(commercial break to promote Neosport's Millenium Bowl '99 on September 9th to be followed by a commercial for NEW's Three Day Wrestlefest in June) Ares v. Shawn Steele v. Steve Grant v. Stunnin Steve's mystery guest (Four Way Dance for the World Heavyweight Title) Stunnin Steve insists on him introducing his guy last. Ares, Shawn Steele, and Steve Grant all come out, and then steve comes out and introduces GRENDEL as the mystery fourth man. Steve then tells them that Grendel refuses to face those losers in the ring, and that he refuses to referee the match. So he, Lisa and Grendel are all going to play strip poker at ringside, and the last man standing wins. The match stays primarily Ares and Steele v. Grant until Ares misses a clothesline and takes out Steele. Wolvie, who is calling the match from ringside comes in and begins to officiate the match. Steele and Ares fight to a knockdown dragout and attempt to finish off each other with thier respective finishers. They both get several close calls on each other, and then Grant gets back up. Grant immeiately goes for Ares, and by this time, Stunnin Steve and Grendel are both down to thier briefs... Lisa is still completely clothed. Ares and Grant fight it out with Grant at the advantage, and Grant gets the DVD and the inferno Kick squarely on Ares. As he goes for the pin, Steele stops the count, and hooks Grant with a Steeledriver. By this time, Steve and GRENDEL have won a few hands, and Lisa is down to her undies. Steele is hobbling back to his feet, and so is Grant. Steele turns around and Grant goes for the Inferno Kick, but steele ducks it and goes for a DVD. Steele goes for the cover... Lisa, Grendel and Steve are all down to noghitn on teh outside, and they notice the pinfall attempt. They Storm the ring and stop the count. Wolvie passes out from seeing Lisa's gorgeous body, Steve and Grendel pull up Steele (Steve and Grendel have long socks hanging from thier endowments and happy faces painted on their asses by the way...) and put Steele in the double powerbomb. They then finish off Grant and Ares the same way, and Grendel goes for the pin with Steve counting. All of a sudden, The OOZING Sore, Matt Foster and Pastor Mark Brian all storm the ring and take out Steve and Grendel. As Matt and Sore chase Steve and Grendel to the back, PMB helps Wolvie to his feet, puts a robe over Lisa's body and escorts her out, and Wolvie calls for the 20 count. Ares is the first man to make it back to his feet. winner: Ares Main Event: 30-man battleroyal (winner gets a shot at the World Title at IDH '99) Here is the order of which everyoen came out.
