Chapter 2: The Opening Interruption
The place was Tokyo, Japan.
The people in attendance: 62,000 strong filling out the Tokyo Dome to the brink.
There was pyro shooting out everywhere from the ring to the big huge state standing a mile away. It looked like the biggest damn light show there ever was with all the works, with the addition of "Painkiller" by Judas Priest playing all over the background. As the pyro finished shooting, the camera got a good look at the three commentators sitting from the announcer's desk: Jim Ross, Matt Striker and Moka Akashiya.
"Hello everyone from Tokyo, Japan, and welcome to the first-ever Anime Royal Rumble, live from the Tokyo Dome!" J.R. exclaimed. "I'm "Good Ol' JR" Jim Ross and with me are my broadcast partners for this evening, from Lucha Underground Matt Striker and Rosario + Vampire's own, Moka Akashiya!"
"I'm very excited to be here, JR!" Striker smirked. "Tonight, we have characters from the Naruto series, One Piece, Bleach, Fairy Tail, Attack on Titan, Sword Art Online, High School DxD, Dragon Ball Z and many other anime shows. They all came here to see who the best of the anime world is!"
"Including me, guys." Moka nodded along with JR and Striker, "We're talking about all people from shapes to sizes, from the big to the small, from the tall to the short, I'll tell ya, this is gonna be history in the making, and I'm glad to be part of it, and in front of these wild and crazy 62,000 fans here at the Tokyo Dome!"
"It's definitely electric here tonight! Now let's turn things over to the ring with our ring announcer for the evening, Justin Roberts." JR said as the camera took a shot at ringside.
Feeling all dressed up and ready to go in his black tuxedo, ring announcer Justin Roberts kicked off the event with this opening line.
"Hello everyone, and welcome to the first ever... AAAAAAAAAAAANIME... ROOOOOOOOYAAAAAAAAL... RUMBLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLE!" The announcer replied on the mic, which got a very good pop before replying; "Now here are the rules, earlier today, the two-"
But just then, Justin Roberts was cut off when the song "Jesus Walks" by Kanye West played across the stadium to confusing, scratching heads.
"What's going on?" asked J.R.
"Whatever or whoever this is, I never heard anybody use Kanye West for an entrance theme song anymore." Striker shrugged in response.
"I wonder who this could be?" Moka asked also.
It wasn't long before a group of female cheerleaders came out, which of course, would bring out the appearance of Gary Oak from Pokémon.
Truth be told, he didn't come out to the adoration of his fans. In fact, he was receiving one hell of a negative reception from the audience of Tokyo and they were busy chanting "Gary Sucks" right towards him.
"All right, it's my man, Gary Oak!" Striker said, celebrating his heart out before looking over to JR saying, "C'mon JR and Moka, pay your respects to the man."
"What kind of business does this man have out here? He's not in the match!" J.R. cried out.
"He doesn't seem to be getting any good reactions from our audience!" Moka shook her head.
"Well Moka, Gary Oak is known for being one of Anime's biggest douchebags!" J.R. exclaimed.
"He doesn't seem like it to me." Striker said, defending Gary's character.
"Well then I guess you don't much attention to Pokemon, Matt!" JR replied, explaining to his broadcast partner.
Strange enough for Gary, he didn't hear the boos the loyal Japanese fans were giving him. Deep down, Gary thought he was hearing adoring cheers from his fans.
Just to raise their ire even more, Gary snapped his finger, which led a huge rainfall of money falling from the sky. The only problem was that it was raining fake $100 bucks with Gary's face labeled on them.
"Well, that's an entrance if I saw one." Moka pointed out.
"Give me a break, he's using the same entrance JBL did at Wrestlemania 21!" rolled JR's eyes.
"I wouldn't doubt that this money is fake!" Striker smirked.
"I bet it is!" J.R. nodded angrily.
After he got in the ring with the ladies, he showed off to the crowd, which apparently was now booing him straight out of the Tokyo Dome.
Once the crowd and music finally died down, Gary Oak took the mic from the ring announcer.
"We're about to hear the man speak." Striker said to both JR and Moka.
"What's on his mind?" Moka asked again.
After the crowd finally kept themselves silent after a long time, Gary finally spoke on the mic.
"Hello, skags!" greeted Gary himself.
It wasn't long before the crowd booed him very loudly for that remark. However, Matt Striker wasn't affected by the crowd's utter cries as he spent the entire time eating up the words that Gary was speaking from his promo.
"Hahahaha, nice one!" Matt laughed.
"Oh come on now!" JR replied in disgust.
After a minute of eating up the boos of the entire crowd, Gary continued his rant uninterrupted.
"I guess all of you are wondering why I'm doing here in this fruit town," Gary said, insulting Tokyo again, "Better yet, why in the heck am I not even in this Anime Royal Rumble? Is it because they know I'll pay the referees off just to give me an easy win? Is it because I'll pay off someone just to give me that coveted #100 spot?"
"Why isn't Gary in this rumble?" Matt asked JR.
"Because he's a real Dick!" JR snapped at Striker.
"Well, that ain't nice." Striker shook his head before Gary explained to the crowd a reason why he wasn't in the Rumble.
"JR is right, tough!" Moka said, agreeing with Jim Ross's answer.
"I'll tell you why they won't put me in with those 99 other skunkheads, and it's all because they're jealous of my style, my class, my ability to deliver, and my ability to attract just like these precious beauties standing before me who worship the ground I truly walk on." He stated before turning to the women standing before him, "You got that right, ladies?"
"You got that right, Gary!" The cheerleaders said to Gary.
"I don't know why those women think he's any of that!" Moka said with a downed forehead.
"Well Moka, it's because this guy is known for being a smooth talking big mouth punk!" JR groaned in disgust.
"I believe Gary knows how to please the ladies!" Striker argued. While JR and Moka both groaned in disagreement.
Right after all of his cheerleaders were busy fawning and cooing over him, Gary decided to speak some more much to the dread of the Tokyo crowd.
"You know what, monkeys in the back, if you won't put 'this' prime meat with the other 99 spoiled steak-heads, then I'll have no choice but to make a little positive out of this." Gary pointed out with a deep breath, "Because, and you're gonna love this... I've decided to become the official host of the Anime Royal Rumble!"
The crowd had no choice but to erupt with boisterously loud boos once they heard this announcement. Never once had they imagined a nightmare such as this to be very true for sure.
"Woo, all right!" celebrated Striker.
"Oh no, is he actually serious?!" gulped Moka.
"My gawd, this can't be happening!" shook J.R.'s head.
Everyone in the Tokyo Dome was so pissed off about this so much; they started to chant 'Bullshit' in response of this news. Apparently, Gary thinks that they were still cheering for this kind of announcement (they weren't). Getting the fans fuming already, Gary kept on going with his promo.
"That's right, fans." He nodded before continuing, "That way, those monkeys in the back will think twice about leaving me out in the Rumble. You don't know what you're getting from all of this. I am big money, people. You know it, the rest of the people in Japan know it, and I know it. So the rest of you all watching, let's drink it all in man! Only I will make this Rumble... great again! Just like my man Donald Trump is making America great again!"
"Haha, I like the way he describes himself as a young Donald Trump!" Striker smirked.
Unfortunately for Matt Striker, Jim Ross and Moka Akashiya didn't like how their commentary partner stated the man in the ring.
"As if!" Moka scoffed at Striker.
"I guess he's definitely got the jerky arrogance to match as well!" J.R. nodded in disgust.
Once again, the crowd started chanting "You Suck" right at Gary Oak, who started to feed off the hatred of these fans as if they were actually cheering for him yet again (they didn't).
"Yes, thank you." bowed Gary, Thank you, my-"
Unfortunately, he wouldn't finish that statement as all of a sudden...
"IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLLL... WHAT THE ROCK... IS COOKIN'?"
Those words were heard around the Tokyo Dome, resulting in the crowd to erupt with a huge ovation loud enough, it nearly tore the stadium in half!
"WAIT A MINUTE!" Striker gasped loudly.
"MY GAWD, IS IT WHO I THINK THIS IS?" J.R. gasped as well.
"IT CAN'T BE!" Moka shouted, pointing at the stage.
With the commentators and fans in shock, the crowd all around the Tokyo Dome had suddenly erupted when "The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment", The Rock, made his way down the aisle. His unexpected appearance had left Gary Oak stunned in total disbelief.
"BUT IT IS!" Moka shrieked in excitement.
"THE ROCK IS HERE!" J.R. shouted out.
"HOLY SHIT!" Striker shouted too.
"These people around here in the Tokyo Dome are on their feet!" J.R. said, referring to the crowd's loud reaction.
"I'll tell ya, he's a huge star around the world, no matter wherever he goes!" nodded Moka.
"He's the most electrifying man in all of sports entertainment!" Striker nodded as well.
One by one, Gary Oak's heartbeats would skyrocket every time Rock would keep walking down that aisle. He was staring upon greatness around in his eyes.
After The Rock got right in the ring, he pumped his fist up to the delight of fans who popped for him again.
"I'll tell ya, Gary Oak didn't expect this to happen!" Moka said to JR.
"I don't think anyone expected this!" shook JR's head.
As he got down from the turn-pad, The Rock was now met face to face with Gary Oak himself. His own cheerleaders reacted as well, falling head over heels with the former WWE champion. Surprisingly enough, Gary was too distracted by the Rock to see this happen.
After the music died down, the Rock was soon met with chants of "Rocky" coming from hungry 60,000 Japanese fans, who were craving to hear the Rock speak.
"This crowd is basically on their feet!" Striker exclaimed.
"I'm excited for what The Rock has to say!" Moka said out of anticipation.
The Rock had to wait for a good minute for the crowd to officially die down from the "Rocky" chants. As they did however, The Rock finally spoke in a mic of his own.
"What in the blue hell do I see here?" The Rock said, pointing to Gary. "If I didn't know any better, I'd say the Rock's looking at Justin Bieber with a bear-skinned ass for a haircut!
"Ha, that's the best thing to describe this jackass!" J.R. smirked while the crowd laughed for Rock's joke.
"Oh come on, I don't think his haircut's not that bad!" Striker complained in front of J.R.
"I beg to differ!" Moka smirked too.
Seeing Gary Oak pissed off by those comments, The Rock decided to rip on him some more.
"But don't you fret my friend; I heard it's all the rage right now. Wearing nothing but animal asses for wigs." The People's Champion smirked, leaving more of his fans laughing on.
"Gary does not like this one bit." shook Striker's head.
"He deserves it, after the way he's been treating Ash!" JR replied to Striker.
"That's a very good point, JR!" Moka nodded on JR's behalf.
Gary had tried to shut up the fans, but apparently, his noise had been drowned out by the thousands of cheers directed at The Rock. He definitely was not gonna take that sitting down.
Before he could at least speak for once, The Rock cut him off immediately.
"Now what was I doing again?" He raised his eyebrow in realization, "Oh, that's right, it's this... FINALLY, THE ROCK HAS COME BACK TO JAPAN!"
The whole arena couldn't help but cheer The Rock very loudly for that catchphrase, which officially didn't take Gary too lightly from this.
"60,000 standing tall for the Great One!" JR pointed out.
"I'm excited for this!" nodded Moka.
Gary couldn't stand this ovation they were giving to The Rock. So as they finally died down, Gary decided to talk for once.
"Who in the hell do you think YOU are trying to steal my spotlight?" He shouted angrily to the Great One, "You can't show up here! I am the official host of-"
Before Gary could say what he had to say, The Rock cut him off once again by halting him using his hand.
"Wait just a damn minute right there!" ordered the Brahma Bull, "Your spotlight? This... is YOUR spotlight? The only spot you ever made in your life is the one happening between your jeans, jabroni!
"I know what The Rock means by that, JR!" Moka laughed along with the crowd.
"I believe everybody here knows what he's talking about!" J.R. nodded.
Gary Oak was now starting to get really pissed at the insults Rock was throwing at him in return. So just to kill off these cheers, Gary spoke straight to Rock's face, much to the annoyance of these fans.
"You know what? You're starting to get on my last nerve!" He shouted to the ex-WWE Champion, "What in the hell do you think this is, frickin' 1999? Get with the times will you, Grandpa! This is 2017! You're no longer relevant at all! These fans decided they want to get with the new, not with the frickin' old! Believe me when I say this, you're way past your time. And if you know what's good for ya, you'll gladly leave my ring and let me get back to my hosting duties, okay Tonto?!"
Immediately, the crowd wasted no time booing Gary Oak loudly for that lame remark he made to The Rock.
"Oh snap, J.R.! Did ya hear that?" Striker smirked to J.R.
"Definitely not a good comeback if I heard one!" JR shook his head.
"What a jerk this guy is!" Moka scowled to Gary from far away.
As Gary Oak smirked much to the Rock's annoyance, The Rock soon got serious with the smart-mouth kid in record time. Just to keep the cheers for "Rocky" going, The Great One now started to face off with the Pokémon master himself.
"I'm guessing by that lame suicide-inducing comeback you threw at The Rock, I assume you're Gary Oak, right?" Rock asked him clearly to a bunch of cheers, which of those caused annoyance to one Mr. Gary Oak in response. After they died down for a little while, Rock replied with, "I know I must be right because you got all those Pokémon badges you've been winning one at a time. They're looking quite impressive. In fact, they're so impressive, you give The Rock no choice on what The People's Champion wants to do with them."
"Uh-oh..." JR gulped.
"Please don't tell me..." Striker gulped also before Rock continued talking.
"In fact, The Rock will take your Boulder Badge, your Cascade Badge, your Rainbow Badge, your pants-pissing badge, your bears-ass-for-a-haircut badge, your Super Saiyan wannabe badge, stitch them right up and then... lube it up, turn that sumbitch sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!"
The whole arena had immediately went into a frenzy of cheers in which it grew so loud, the velocity of that ovation was literally shaking the roof out of the Tokyo Dome. And boy, were the commentators feeling it.
"Yeah, you tell 'em, Rock!" Moka cheered loudly.
"Why the heck are you even encouraging him?!" Striker whined to the vampire.
"She has every right to Matt, so don't question her!" JR told Striker.
There was nothing Gary Oak could say about that little insult that The Rock gave him. It did however; take Gary just a minute for him to finally speak up.
"Are you done boring me to sleep now...?" Gary said to an ounce of boos.
"I'm boring you to sleep?" Rock replied with a feigned gasp, "Well, damn son, if you really wanted to sleep..."
And then all of a sudden, The Rock threw his shirt off to the side, resulting in cheers from the fans. It was obvious that he wanted to fight and shut the punk kid's mouth up for good. With his shirtless self standing across from Gary, The Rock finished his statement with these words:
"Then The Rock is gonna make you sleep!"
That little statement coming from the Great One made the crowd continue to cheer him on. Gary knew the Rock was ready for a fight.
But unfortunately, Gary didn't feel like fighting him. It was apparent to Gary that he didn't want to get his hands dirty. So, he decided to do the only thing he needed to do.
"That's so touching of you, but trusts me; you're not worth my time." The punk scowled back to the People's Champion, "Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta show to run, so if you'll please excuse me, this confrontation is over."
Just like that, the crowd immediately booed Gary for his cowardliness, which didn't sit very well with JR, Moka and The Rock out of all people.
"What a coward!" scowled JR.
"C'mon, I think it's smart," Striker consulted JR, "I think he just isn't ready for him."
"Still, you don't back away from The Rock like that!" Moka told Striker.
The Rock even tried his best to get Gary back in the ring, but unfortunately, Gary was walking too far away from the ring to turn back. Knowing the coward that Gary was, the Rock decided to speak into the mic in response.
"You see what you get when you have an animal butt for a haircut? That's why you should all stay in school." The Rock pointed at Gary while the crowd responded with a huge "Ohhh" from that burn.
"BURN!" Moka pointed at Gary as well.
"Ha, that's for damn sure!" nodded JR.
"Oh, please!" Striker replied.
Knowing that Gary wasn't coming back at all, The Rock decided to end his promo right away by turning his back on the young punk.
"IF YA SMELL..."
But while in the middle of his catchphrase, Gary Oak started to run back to the ring, hoping to sneak attack the Brahma Bull out of behind.
"Look out, Rock!" Moka shouted over to the Rock.
"He's gonna sneak attack The Rock!" alerted JR.
As he got back in, Gary swung at The Rock...
...
...
...only for The Rock to turn around and catch Gary in time, nailing Ash's rival with a Rock Bottom, much to the delight from the Tokyo crowd!
"Oh no!" cried out Striker.
"Yeah!" cheered Moka, who went crazy for that move.
"Rock Bottom, The Rock has nailed Gary Oak with that Rock Bottom!" JR repeated.
"That'll teach Gary Oak for sure!" Moka replied.
"Serves him damn right!" JR nodded with force.
With the whole audience on their feet, The Rock immediately stood up next to Gary Oak's head, setting up what was highly regarded as 'The Most Electrifying Move In Sports Entertainment Today", the People's elbow.
Raising his eyebrow, the Rock then swung his arms around before running back and forth towards the ropes. And when he came to a sudden stop...
*BAAAAAAM!*
He nailed The People's Elbow straight onto Gary's chest!
"Right there! The Most Electrifying Move in Sports Entertainment, The People's Elbow!" JR shouted boisterously.
"Yay, we've got to see it for our very eyes!" Moka said, cheering for The Rock.
The entire Tokyo crowd was now in a complete frenzy, seeing Gary get his just desserts. So while the punk kid was down and out from the impact of that People's Elbow, The Rock once again took the mic and made this announcement for everyone to hear.
"By the way, Gary. If you wanna know why The Rock's here in the first place, well then, he's there to tell you this..." The Rock said with a deep breath before confessing to everyone, "The Rock is the official host of the first-ever Anime Royal Rumble!"
The whole arena immediately went crazy and bonkers for The Rock after hearing that announcement. To be honest, they would definitely want The Rock hosting the show than Gary anyday.
"Now that's what we're talking about!" JR pointed out.
"I agree, he's a way better host than Gary so far!" Moka nodded.
"Oh come on now, why can't Gary have his moment?" Striker groaned while whining like a spoiled baby.
With Gary now flat on his back, The Rock clenched his mic hard as ever and began closing things out with this signature line:
"IF YA SMELL... WHAT THE ROCK... IS COOKIN'?"
Ending his promo with a raising of the People's Eyebrow, The Rock's music hit therefore bringing thousands of their fans to the feet, cheering for their hero/host nonstop.
"What a moment to kick off the Anime Royal Rumble!" J.R. exclaimed once more.
"I agree, Gary will be feeling that one for sure!" Moka nodded alongside the Oklahoman.
"I don't like this one bit, he truly ruined Gary's moment." Striker groaned miserably.
"Tough luck, Matt." JR said to Matt before looking back to the Rock, who was busy celebrating in the ring, "Anyway, we'll be right back after the break, so stay tuned because the Rumble will be coming up next!"
Yikes, this was a drag to edit, but hey, at least I managed to finally get it done. Anyway, next up will be the start of the Rumble, so if you want, you're more than welcome to take a guess of who'll be in there. So with that said in mind, stay tuned. This is gonna get good.
