I have several scores I need to settle tonight and prove I am a fighting champion, but I also knew I could lose my championship without being pinned, in this match so I had to expect the unexpected.

I was just warming up with some stretching and some kicks to get me fired up, I only had one goal in mind….survive.

"Are you decent?"

"What do you think?" I playfully said.

"I'm guessing only slightly? Aw no! you lied!!" Ashley complained.

"I know but I wish it was the other way around." I said as I pulled her in closer to me, and as we were about to kiss, an unexpected visit came.

"Hold it there junior, I only came here to talk not to fight, we'll be doing plenty of it later, I needed to clear the air with you about two weeks ago, I did that because I needed to show you I mean business, and I would like to apologise to you, and hope we can remain fellow work colleagues?" Jericho asked.

"Even though I was a bit pissed at what you did, but after the beating I gave you last Monday and I knew you we're only sending me a message, so, yes I will accept your apology." I said shaking his hand.

"Well I'm glad you did, I was also wanting to ask you if you would like to form a brief alliance against our other opponents tonight, I mean they have also decided to team up on us two so they can fight it out, so what do ya say…junior?" he asked me.

"Well under those circumstances I'll accept, but however after we take care of those two…it's down to you and me for the title." I said as I had my title on my shoulders posing with it.

He just nodded his head and left.

"Well looks like the air is clear with you two, um I wanted to thank you for last Saturday, I really had a good time with you." she said.

"My pleasure, you know you were the first one to see my new crib, and later this weekend the guys are comin over to see it, and by the way my cooking was not that bad!!" I said.

"But you burned the lasagne and you over did the rice a little, but at least the drinks were good." she said.

"Hey I might be a well paid superstar but I still drink like a normal person, that cristal stuff has no taste and I rather have a forty any day of the week." I said.

"True, fancy drink are all talk, anyway I'll let you get back to training, you have a huge title defence tonight, please try not to get hurt out there." she said.

"Don't worry bout me I'll be fine, and I only want to prove that I am a fighting champion, and I take on all comers!! But I could use some good luck right about now." I said.

I pulled her into my arms and we kissed again and this one was for luck, but it was just an excuse to get a kiss off of her but I think she knew.

LATER ON

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is a fatal four-way, for the Intercontinental Championship!!" Lillian announced.

Don't waste my time hit as the Epitome of Arrogance Elijah Burke, he strutted down to the ring with that huge smile on his face and his 4-UP hand ready for combat, he went into the ring and posed for the crowd.

The Wall hit next and out came the World's Strongest Man, looking determined to win the gold and in the process, punish all of his opponents who stand in his way, he entered the ring and gave Burke a look and went over to him and they shook hands, their partnership was for real.

Break the walls down sounded with a mixed reaction but out came the man who will Save Us, Jericho looked focused on the task at hand and went into the ring, without any hesitation at all and was ready to start the match.

Bleed it out then hit across the arena and the fans were going wild for me as I came out with me wearing my shirt and the Intercontinental Championship around my waist, I ran to the ring and threw my shirt to the crowd, posed on the top turnbuckle holding my championship up high, I gave a quick word to Jericho and by the look of it we were set for our plan and I handed my belt to the ref which he held up high to the crowd, I looked at it, hoping I would walk out with it.

The bell rang and we all faced each other, and we all double teamed each other with me attacking Burke and Jericho attacking Henry, we were exchanging blows, until I clothes lined Burke over the top rope I waited till he was up and sent myself flying over the ropes right on top of him, taking us both down.

Meanwhile in the ring Henry and Jericho were fighting it out against each other but Henry got the upper hand and was grounding Jericho with his size and using his strength to wear down Y2J as much as he could, he took him to the corner turnbuckle and aimed for a splash in the corner but Jericho got out of the way at the last second, temporarily stunning the Silverback, Jericho nailed a dropkick only to slightly hurt him, he went for another it took him down to one knee, and used a running enziguri to topple the big man, went for the cover, 1-2- nope he powered out of it.

Back on the outside Burke had me down and it was right after I got up and he managed to reverse a suplex attempt and threw me into the steel steps shoulder first, the pain was excruciating as he began an assault on me by taking me to the barrier where the fans watched on as he began beating me with those fists of his, as he went to throw me into the ring post, I countered and threw him into it, head first knocking him down, I grabbed him but I struggled a bit after the beating I took from him, but I wanted to return the favour.

I backed up ready for him when I backed into someone, I turned around and so did he at the same time, it was Jericho, both Henry and Burke were up and had us cornered completely, they looked as pissed as ever and we knew it was time to work together in order to stay alive, we began by getting out of Henry's way and him inadvertently hitting Burke out of the ring, he just realised his error and turned around.

I came in with a huge roundhouse kick to the head, stunning him for a few seconds until from behind Jericho nailed the bull dog, followed by the Lionsault, which connected, I went from the top rope and nailed a spring board moonsault. We waited until he was up, and Jericho nailed the Codebreaker, which was making him teeter so I came in and nailed Rage in the Cage on him, it eventually took him out of the match, but as I got up I saw Jericho go for the pin 1-2- I pulled him off a lifeless Henry, he looked at me in complete shock.

I looked at him and he began asking, "What are you doing?" and he began pushing me and I responded with a huge push sending him flat on his ass, he got up and tackled me to the ground and we were brawling in the ring as we both tried to gain the upper hand on one another, but out of nowhere as we were on the floor fighting, we were flattened by an angry Silverback, and both of us were clutching out ribs and back as the force was great.

As he stood above us both he was pandering on who to destroy first so he went for me and grabbed me and had scooped me up into his arms and hit the World's Strongest Slam on my injured back, I felt the pain shooting all around my body, I rolled to the bottom ropes to try and recover. He targeted Jericho next, and picked him up and applied the Bearhug on him, I could see his face as he struggled to breathe and escape, but the strength was too much as I saw he was close to passing out.

As I saw from my point of view it looked to be over as the ref began the count, 1!! C'mon Jericho fight!! 2!! But as he went for three it was more of 4Up to the jewels of Mark Henry, releasing Jericho and stopping the big man momentarily, the ref saw nothing and he began nailing rights and lefts to his head, eventually another 4 up came into play but it connected to his jaw, sending him down to the mat.

He was hitting a number of elbows to keep the big man grounded, and used all of his strength to drag him to the corner turnbuckle where he layed him out and ascended to the top nailing the Outer limits elbow right into the heart of Henry, he saw Jericho get up and nailed him out of nowhere with the Elijah Experience, he was getting cocky, but wanted to pin me as he began positioning me for the Elijah Express, I used the ropes to get myself to a standing point, he went for the kill.

Full speed, I got out of the way at the last second, he landed knees first into the turnbuckle, as he came out I saw my chance and nailed a float over DDT knocking him down, no one was about I went up high but my back was preventing me a little but it took time to set up the finishing blow, I used what energy I had left, and hit X Marks the Spot on Burke, I covered him, 1-2-3 I did it!!

I managed to retain my championship, I battled against the odds, and came out on top, but my back was in incredible pain, but I'm still the champ, as I left the ring celebrating my title defence, I saw my opponents disappointed faces, I knew somehow this wasn't over just yet.
