36. Chapter 36

Chapter two is here and as you can guess this chapter is going to be a long one. First thing I need to say is thank you to everyone for the reviews for the last chapter. I appreciate it and glad to know people are still following the story. So, I hope you are all ready for today.

Now, need to address something first. I am skipping SmackDown of May 1st since I wanted to try getting to the Wrestling Dontaku show. Plus, I couldn't figure out some ideas of what to do with that day. I got the 24th of April's show, but the 1st of May, yeah I decided to skip over it. Still, I hope you all like what is replacing it.

Anyways, yeah I also didn't do the Greatest Royal Rumble show for…obvious reasons. Now then, last time we saw Ruby defeat R-Truth in her first match since being the IWGP Heavyweight Champion. Until Big Cass appeared to attack her. What will happen leading up to Backlash between Ruby and Cass?

Tune in today to find out and let's get started with the disclaimer. I don't own anything from WWE. I only own my OC Ruby Nite. Although, let's be honest do they own the people themselves? Probably not.

Still, better safe than sorry. Now, let the chapter begin.

Road to Dontaku

SmackDown 4/24/18

The show opens in Louisville, Kentucky with the Miz coming out making his return to SmackDown live. Miz is in the middle of the ring sitting on his seat for his segment Miz TV. The crowd boos at Miz as he looks around smiling and looking cocky as always. He mocks the crowd before moving his hand up to silence them, but they kept on booing.

The Miz talks about his return to SmackDown Live and talks about how he will regain his Intercontinental Championship. A title he will regain this Friday and become a nine-time Intercontinental Champion. Vowing to beat Seth Rollins, Samoa Joe, and Finn Bálor. He then invites his guest tonight Daniel Bryan who he knows has been waiting two years to get his hands on him.

However, instead of Daniel Bryan, it is Big Cass. He returns with a suit as he heads towards the ring with the crowd booing loudly at him. Big Cass heads to the ring as he and Miz talk about his return last week. How Big Cass was out for nine months thanks to the knee injury he suffered in the summer.

He talks about how for nine months he spent time in rehabilitation after his surgery and for nine months no one mentioned him. He was completely forgotten and the only thing he could hear was Ruby Takashi.

Ruby who became the first ever woman to be WWE Champion, who for months dominated as champion, who defeated Brock Lesnar, and made history winning the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania defeating Kazuchika Okada. This made Big Cass mad because he feels the crowd should be talking about him, they should be chanting for him, and that Ruby is nothing compared to him.

The Miz agreed with this and also agrees that Ruby's time running SmackDown is up. The Miz supports Big Cass's return and supports the fact that he should be the one the people should be talking. Not Ruby who is playing around with a title, which isn't as important as the WWE Championship or Intercontinental Championship. Not someone who isn't even going to be on the show this Friday and not someone who doesn't deserve to be in the main event anymore.

However, they are soon interrupted as *Rise* begins to play. This caused Big Cass and the Miz to take off their jackets thinking Ruby is coming out. However, Ruby came through the crowd, leaps over the barricade, and gets on the apron as the two men turned around. Ruby leaps up and hits a Springboard Front Dropkick taking both men down.

Ruby kicks up and yells as she clothesline Miz over the top rope. She then sees Big Cass in the corner and runs over hitting a front Dropkick knocking Cass into the corner. She pushes him forward and climbs the top rope. She goes for the Blockbuster, but then Big Cass rolls out of the ring and runs through the crowd as Ruby looks on pissed off.

She jumps down to the ring as the crowd boos at Cass. Ruby begins shaking her head and yells at Cass calling him a coward. She turns around and sees Miz running at her, but she falls backwards while pulling the top rope down. Miz falls over the top rope and lands on the outside as he quickly gets up.

The Miz bangs his hands on the apron and yells at Ruby. Yelling at her for ruining his show and for interrupting him. Ruby grabs his chairs and tosses them at Miz who had to jump out of the way. He begins running up the entrance ramp as Ruby tosses yet another chair at him.

Ruby yells at Miz as he runs up to the entrance stage until *Stars in the Night* begins to play as the SmackDown GM, Paige came out getting cheered loudly.

"Ruby, first I understand how angry you must feel. I mean, I would be pissed too after what happened last week. However…" the crowd booed as Paige tries to calm the situation. "However, Big Cass is scheduled for a ten-man Tag Team match. However, you will get your hands on him…at Backlash."

The crow gave a mixed reaction, but Ruby knows she can wait till Backlash in a few weeks. Sure, she knew Big Cass will be in action this Friday and she has a show to get ready for too. So, she can bide her time. Build up all this anger she has before she unleashes it on Big Casss.

Paige turns to Miz who is yelling at her to do something about what Ruby just did. For attacking him and ruining his good suit.

"You want me to do something about Ruby?" Paige asked as some of the fans laughed.

The Miz yells at her and says yes. Paige turns to the crowd and begins smiling. "Okay. Well, Miz. For your first match back tonight you will go one-on-one with…Ruby Takashi," the crowd cheers loudly as the Miz looks on mad.

Ruby didn't care if she fights Miz or not. She's beaten him before so she doesn't mind kicking his ass again. Even if it's to send a message to Big Cass. Even if it means letting him know she is coming for him next.

"In fact, since you are mad about the torn suit and yeah it looks ruined, why don't you get down in that ring and let's have this match…right now," said Paige as the crowd cheered loudly once more as Paige calls for a referee.

The Miz though yells at Paige for what she is doing, while the referee runs into the ring and calls for Miz to come down. The Miz continues yelling at Paige for what she is doing, but Paige just motions for him to get in the ring before heading to the back. Ruby sits in the corner as she waits for her victim to come into the ring as the show goes into commercial break.

*End of Commercial Break*

The show comes back from commercial break as the Miz is in the ring pleading for the referee not to ring the bell. Ruby is standing in her corner, while her feet are stomping on the mat as she can't wait to get the fight going. The Miz continues telling the ref not to ring the bell. But the referee ignores him and calls for the bell to begin them match.

Ruby runs over and hits Miz with a front Dropkick sending her opponent into the corner. Miz bounces off the corner and falls to the mat as Ruby climbs to the top rope as her opponent begins getting up. Ruby leaps off and hits the Blockbuster before flipping Miz over then wraps her arms around his waist from behind. Ruby pushes him into the corner, but when she went for the Rolling German Suplex the Miz held on to the corner and has her flip backwards.

The Miz goes for a Clothesline, but Ruby ducks and leaps on the corner. She pushes back against the corner to hit the Wolf Fang, but Miz caught her. He then goes for the Skull Crushing Finale, but Ruby flips him forward. The Miz gets up and Ruby delivers a Superkick before running to the ropes, she jumps up on the middle rope, bounces back, and hits the Wolf Fang.

Ruby however, doesn't go for the cover as the fans cheer her on. Oh no, she wants to make Miz suffer. So, she gets him on his belly and locks in the Muta Lock. The Miz begins struggling to get out of the hold as Ruby pulls on his neck as the fans begin chanting for Miz to tap out. The Miz struggles to the ropes but couldn't get to the ropes.

So, the Miz begins tapping out as the fans cheered loudly as the referee calls for the bell. Ruby keeps the hold locked as the referee tries to get her to let go of the hold. Ruby breaks the hold as the referee tries to raise her hand. She moves her hand away from him and calls for a mic.

Ruby grabs the mic and begins pacing around the ring. All while she begins smiling a little.

"Oh Cass, Cass, Cass…big boy, you made a very big mistake last week," she began as she stops pacing around the ring. "I get it. You wanted to make a big impact upon your return. You want to do something that will get the people talking. So, you wanted to go after the biggest and baddest of the WWE to make a name for yourself. But you picked the wrong bitch to fight."

Ruby begins smiling some more as the fans begin chanting her name. "I don't care if you don't like me being on top, I don't care if you hate that I have become more successful than you, and I don't care if you feel forgotten. Because when I am through with you the people will not only forget you, but I'm going to make you my personal bitch."

The crowd cheered knowing Ruby is going to fight Big Cass and when she does he'll get his ass kicked.

"So, be ready, big boy. Because the wolf is on the hunt and you are going to die," said Ruby before dropping the mic and takes her title as she poses in the ring.

The crowd cheers loudly for her as it shows on the titantron it will be Ruby Takashi versus Big Cass at Backlash. Not for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, but a non-title match and she will be looking forward to it. She will not only kick his ass, but she'll make him regret ever picking a fight with her.

Backstage

The rest of the show continues with the IIconics facing off against Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair. It was the first match for the IIconics after they made their debut attacking Charlotte Flair. Since then they have been a thorn on her side as she tries to get her rematch with Asuka. She has it, but tonight was not her night to gain momentum.

During the match Carmella came out to distract Charlotte. Asuka came out to attack Carmella after Carmella attacked her last week during match against Natalya. After the match Carmella Superkicked her and then stood over her body with the title. So, Asuka came out to attack Carmella and chase her away.

This allowed Billy Kay to knock Charlotte to the outside, while Peyton Royce gets the pin on Becky. After the match Asuka and Charlotte get into it with Charlotte blaming Asuka for what happened. The IIconics and Carmella then attack both women before Becky send them running with a steel chair.

The next match has Jimmy Uso with his brother Jey who is unable to team with him against the Bludgeon Brothers after what they did to him last week. However, Sakura Muta came out to team with Jimmy Uso and the two face off against the tag team champions. The Bludgeon Brothers still dominated much of the match as they took Jimmy down and tried to keep him from tagging in Sakura. Jimmy though got a tag in after countering a double Chokeslam into a Double DDT taking both men down.

Sakura got the tag and knocked both big men down going for their legs. She then goes for the Superkick, but Luke Harper hits her with a Clothesline. The Bludgeon Brothers go for the Double Chokeslam, until Jey Uso distracted the referee. Sakura spits a green mist at both men causing them to get blind.

Sakura ducks a Big Boot from Rowan and his partner instead gets kicked knocking him down. Jimmy runs in and Clothesline Rowan to the outside before he works with Ruby to deliver a Double Superkick to Rowan. Sakura then tags Jimmy and he hits the Superfly Splash to get the win giving the Bludgeon Brothers their first loss since coming back. The Usos celebrate with Sakura in the ring as the fans cheered them on.

Shelton Benjamin with Chad Gable at ringside faced off against Randy Orton with Jeff Hardy at ringside. Randy is hoping to get a title shot at the United States title against Bobby as he faced off against Benjamin who also wants a shot at the title. However, during the match Jinder Mahal attacked Jeff Hardy for costing him his shot for the title on Raw.

Jinder threw Jeff into the barricade as the referee went to stop him. Orton was setting up for the RKO, until the outside attack happened. Chad Gable got in the ring and clipped Orton's leg. This allowed Benjamin to hit the Paydirt and gets the win.

It is later confirmed this Friday it will be Bobby Roode defending his title now in a five-way match. Bobby Roode versus Randy Orton versus Jinder Mahal versus Jeff Hardy versus Shelton Benjamin.

The final match of the night it is the main event ten-man tag team match. The WWE Champion, AJ Styles teaming with Daniel Bryan, Finn Bálor, Luke Gallows, & Karl Anderson versus Shinsuke Nakamura, Samoa Joe, Big Cass, & the Authors of Pain w/Paul Ellring.

The match went back and forth between the two teams. With Nakamura's team trying to take down AJ's team. Trying to weaken them for the Greatest Royal Rumble show. However, AJ's team keep fighting on and trying to get the win.

AJ is in the ring getting beaten down by Nakamura's team until he managed to get the hot tag. Tagging in Bryan as he begins taking down Nakamura, Joe, Big Cass, and hitting a double Dropkick knocking the Authors of Pain off the apron. Bryan delivers the 'Yes' kicks over and over to Nakamura before delivering a kick to the head knocking him down. Bryan goes for the cover, but the Authors of Pain took him down.

Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson run in to take both men down as they begin brawling to the outside. Joe then comes in to lock in the Rear-Naked Chokehold on Bryan until AJ flies in hitting a Phenomenal Forearm taking him down. Big Cass tags in Nakamura, while allowing his partner to attack AJ then throw him to the outside. Finn tags himself in and takes Nakamura out as he turns around and Big Cass hits a Big Boot.

Big Cass moves his hand up as he prepares to finish Finn off, until Ruby came through the crowd to distract the referee. This caused Big Cass to go after her, but Ruby leaps off the apron and Finn runs over to hit an Enzuigiri to the back of Big Cass's head causing him to stagger. The referee pushes Finn back and Ruby delivers a Superkick to Big Cass knocking him down before she heads up the entrance stage. Finn climbs to the top rope and hits the Coup de Grâce (diving double foot stomp) and gets the win.

The fans cheered loudly as Finn gets the win with his team. AJ Styles, Daniel Bryan, Finn Bálor, Luke Gallows, & Karl Anderson celebrate in the ring. All while Ruby applauds for her friends. All while she sees Big Cass on the floor on the outside where he looks at her.

Ruby can tell he looks mad at her. Ruby didn't care though since she send a message. Letting him know what happens when you try pissing her off. She got the last word tonight, but she knows she has until next week before Backlash. And knows he'll do whatever it takes to get payback.

5/3/2018

It was finally time. A week ago, WWE had their Greatest Royal Rumble show. It had every title from the men's division on the line, including crowning new Raw Tag Team Champions. It also had John Cena going one-on-one with Triple H, the Undertaker versus Rusev, and the 50-men royal rumble match.

Due to the country's laws on women, WWE couldn't bring their women's division to the show. This was fine for Ruby though since she needed to get ready for her match tonight. Tonight, is the night. Tonight, history will be made as she returns to Japan and isn't coming alone.

The show opens with a video package of Wrestling Dontaku's past shows. All while a voice narrator speaks over the video package.

"25 years ago…history was made…" it showed the video highlights of the very first Wrestling Dontaku show in 1993. From the Hell Raisers against Masahiro Chono and Shinya Hashimoto, Hulk Hogan against the Great Muta, and the main event with Antonio Inoki and Tatsumi Fujinami going up against Genichiro Tenryu and Riki Choshu.

"Legends were born…and their legacies…began…" it then showed 1994's show with Rick Rude defeating Sting for the WCW International Heavyweight Championship, Shinya Hashimoto defeating Tatsumi Fujinami to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, and Antonio Inoki defeating the Great Muta.

"The future changed everything…boundaries were broken…and careers were changed forever…" it then showed 2011, 2014, and 2017's shows where they had Hiroshi Tanahashi facing off against Shinsuke Nakamura, Ruby Takashi facing off against AJ Styles, and Kazuchika Okada facing off against Bad Luck Fale all during their reigns as IWGP Heavyweight Champions.

"But tonight…history will be made again…" said the narrator who sounded very familiar. "Tonight…it begins…tonight…a revolution begins…tonight…a war begins…" the lights soon turned off as the voice echoed all around the darkness followed by what sounds like footsteps can be heard.

The lights soon turned on and the narrator is revealed to be…Triple H as he stood in the middle of the light with his NXT talent walking behind him.

"Tonight…we take over…Wrestling Dontaku…" said Triple H as he raises his sledgehammer and swings it to the camera before the lights go out.

The crowd cheered for the three men as they entered the ring and looked ready to fight.

Davey Boy and Lance went for their tag team finisher, but Adam Cole made the same for his team, until Takashi send him to the outside.

So, Kari was looking forward for her friend to finally join her in WWE. The two women got a huge reaction from the crowd as they gave the crowd a good match between the two.

Kairi and Io countered one another during much of the match showing how well they know each other. Io even hit a Moonsault from the top rope to the outside on Kairi. Kairi went for her Diving Elbow Drop, but Io moved out of the way and almost got the win. But Kairi countered her finisher and got the win defeating Io.

The two women embraced in a hug and the fans gave them a standing ovation.

Their opponents Team NXT coming out to the ring: the NXT Champion Aleister Black, the WWE United Kingdom Champion Pete Dunne, ECW, Ricochet, and Johnny Gargano. All five men came out to a great reaction from the crowd and they head in to fight Team Chaos.

It started off slow with Will Ospreay and Aleister Black starting things off for their team. Both men quick on their feet as they got they going for quick kicks. Countering each other's roll-ups, and both trying to hit their finishers. They then tagged their partners in with Pete Dunne getting in with the 6ft tall Hirooki Goto. Goto was taller than Dunne, but despite this the Bruiserweight surprised the crowd when he began taking down Goto.

He even tried breaking Goto's fingers, but Goto countered and the two men begin having a brawl. Soon everyone got in the ring as they broke down into a fight. They even had their high-flyers hitting their own top rope moves. First with Will Ospreay and then with Ricochet who shocked the crowd when he did a Moonsault from the top rope to the outside, and on the men who were over a steel railing.

It soon calmed down with EC3 taking much of the punishment from Ishii and Yano who managed to keep him from his corner. EC3 though managed to fight back and even hit the One Percenter on Goto.

Jay gets the win for his team as Clampa heads up the ramp with an evil smile on his face. Team Chaos though shook hands with Team NXT and the crowd cheered for all ten men showing them respect for their performance.

Backstage

Ruby is in the back on the floor meditating as she breaths in and out. She knows she is going to be defending her title tonight. She knows its going to be a tough match, especially since she's going up against two of the toughest men she has ever fought. So, this won't be easy, but she's going to give it her all.

She opened her eyes when she saw the match between Kenny Omega and Hangman Page end. She saw Kenny getting the win over Hangman after a very physical match. She must admit Hangman has come a long way since he began wrestling in 2008. She met him before in 2011 when he joined Ring of Honor, but she believed he needed help to make it.

She's glad he joined up with the Bullet Club and became close friends with the guys. They helped him get to where he is and this match with Kenny helped put him over. Yes, he didn't get the win, but the fact he had a good match with Kenny showed he can become a great singles champion one day. He will do it, but its only a matter of when that will be.

She then saw the Bullet Club lose their NEVER Openweight 6-man Tag Team titles to the Super Villains after Lars Sullivan turned on his partners Tommaso Clampa and Velveteen Dream. Marty Scurll and the Young Bucks took advantage and won the titles. All while Tommaso ran away after Johnny came out after him.

Ruby knew Johnny will get his payback on Tommaso. Making him pay for costing Team NXT's match. She got up as she prepares to get dressed with Kairi walked into the room with a towel around her shoulder. She smiles softly and approached her fiancé.

"How do you feel?" Ruby asked knowing Kairi is probably sore after her match with Io Shirai.

Kairi sighed as she rubs her shoulders. "Tired…but fine…how about you?"

Ruby looks over at her title and shrugs her shoulders. "I'm doing okay. Just getting mentally focused for my match. But once I retain we'll head back to our room and relax. Is that okay?"

Kairi nods in response as she gives Ruby a kiss on the lips. "Be safe…have fun…and win."

Ruby nods as she kisses her back before resting her forehead against Kairi's. "I will. I won't lose tonight."

Later

The show continued with Shanya Bazsler defending her NXT Women's Championship against Nikki Cross, from the Stardom promotion Kagetsu, and the World of Stardom Champion Toni Storm. Shanya started off pretty much trash talking to all three women until they began beating her up. It soon turned to Nikki going crazy as she begins attacking the other two women before they double-teamed her then knocked her to the outside.

Toni and Kagetsu soon fought it off considering they are also feuding for the Stardom title. Shanya got back in the ring then took both women down as she begins injuring Toni's arm. However, Nikki came in with a steel chair and begins using it on all three women. She even brings out a table to use it.

Until Kagetsu spears Nikki through it taking her out. Shanya kicks her to the outside until Toni Dropkicks her to the outside to join Kagetsu. Soon Toni climbed to the top rope and hits a Crossbody landing on all three women. She soon throws Kagetsu in the ring then tries to go for the win, but only got a two.

The match continued until Nikki almost got the win when she hits a Powerbomb on Toni through a table. She went for the win, but Shanya got a roll-up on her and held the ropes before retaining her title. After the match though Nikki hits Shanya with a steel chair over and over until she puts her through another table while taking her NXT Women's title away vowing to win it from her.

The next match has Los Ingobernables de Japon (Sanada and Evil) the IWGP Tag Team Champions defending their titles against Suzuki-gun (Zack Sabre Jr. & El Desperado), Chaos (Beretta & Rocky Romero), and War Raiders (Raymond Rowe and Hanson) who are the only ones representing NXT.

The crowd cheered loudly for all four teams, including the War Raiders who are making their return to Japan. They are looking to become a three-time Tag Team Champions. It was a quick, but hard-hitting tag team match with all four teams looking to get the IWPG Tag Team titles. War Raiders though looked dominant until Sanada and Evil took them out.

They then focused on taking out Beretta and Romero as they tried to keep the other teams in. That was until Zach Sabre Jr. and El Desperado got the hot tag as they begin taking out the other two teams. They got the crowd going as they prepared to end the match. Until War Raiders came back in then begin dominating the match as well.

They then hit the Fallout on Sanada as they got the win. Becoming the new IWGP Tag Team Champions for the third-time. They stood tall with the titles as the crowd cheered loudly for all four men. War Raiders gave a bow to the crowd and to their opponents before they celebrated with their titles.

The next match is Cody going up against Kota Ibushi. There have been some issues going on between Cody and Kenny Omega, which has begun to show, especially when Kenny came to help his former partner Koba. It soon turned into a fight between Cody and Kenny. While Kenny got the win over Hangman, Cody got the win over Kota.

It was a back-and-forth match, which showed how far Cody has come since leaving WWE. He has proven himself time and time again against some of the best of the independence. All while becoming a big name himself. He defeated Kota and is looking forward to facing off against Kenny when the time comes in July.

But now it was time for the main event. The crowd cheered loudly knowing the main event is here. Before the match begins a video package begins to play showing what happened to lead to this match. It showed Kazuchika Okada in an interview how he lost his title to Ruby at WrestleMania. How history was made as for the first time ever the IWGP Heavyweight title was defended at WrestleMania 34.

It was a physical match between Ruby and Okada as the two competitors gave it their all. Even hitting their finishers and their best moves yet they couldn't put the other away. Okada admits he lost the match fair and square but vowed this wouldn't be the end. That he will regain his title and he will defeat Ruby to get it back.

However, the video showed Hiroshi Tanahashi winning a match to earn his shot for the IWGP Heavyweight title. That he challenged Ruby for the title, but Okada tells him he has a rematch for it. So, Ruby informed both men she'll defend the title against the both of them making it a three-way match.

Both men accepted and each of them vowed they will walk out of Wrestling Dontaku with the title. Okada vows he will regain what is his, Tanahashi vows to make history, and Ruby vows she will walk out with her title no matter what.

The video package ends and *Love & Enery* begins to play as Hiroshi Tanahashi begins making his way out getting cheered by the crowd. Hiroshi Tanahashi came out as he shakes the hands of the fans. He comes out from one side of the two entrance ramps they had set up. Tanahashi heads towards the ring as he vows to become a eight-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion.

Hiroshi climbs to the top rope as he poses for the crowd. Tanahashi begins removing his jacket as the crowd waits to see his opponents making their way out.

On the titantron it showed a figure's back wearing a robe over his body. It then showed the figure wearing necklaces around his neck before the video shows Kazuchika Okada's serious expression on the screen. It then shows him flipping a gold coin as he begins walking away as the coin hits the ground.

*Rain Maker* begins to play as Kazuchika Okada came out to a standing ovation from the crowd. Okada came out without Gedo and heads to the ring with money beginning to rain down. The crowd cheered loudly as the former longest-reigning IWGP Heavyweight Champion heads to the ring looking to become a five-time champion. He is escorted by two officials as he heads up to the ring and poses as the crowd cheered loudly for him.

Okada gets on the top rope and poses as Hiroshi stood in his corner. Okada removes his robe and hands it to an official before turning to his opponent. The two men soon eyed each other before the lights go out. The crowd cheered loudly as they wait to see where their champion will come out.

A loud howl can be heard echoing around the arena as the crowd wait to see what's going to happen. Soon the howls got louder and louder until they suddenly stopped. Moments later the lights turned on in the middle of the crowd. There in the middle stood a figure wearing a black cloak surrounded by other cloaked figures.

The figure stood up as the fans cheered loudly when they saw who it is.

Ruby is seen dressed in a blue leotard with a black jumpsuit that appeared like armor along with armor shoulder pads, wrist gauntlet, red belt sash around her waist with the IWGP Heavyweight title around her waist, black boots with red kickpads, a white mask covering half of her face stopping at the mouth with a red circle in the middle of the forehead, and a katana sword.

The crowd cheered loudly as she heads towards the ring as she is escorted to the ring by the crowd. Ruby shakes the hands of some of the fans before she gets to the ring. She gets on the apron before getting to the top rope before letting out a loud howl. The crowd cheered as she removes her mask revealing her whole face to them.

She gets in the ring as she poses with her title while the two men stood in their corner. Ruby hands her title over to the referee as he stood in the middle of the ring with the ring announcer doing the introduction.

"This is the three-way match for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship!" said Kayla Braxton as she introduces the competitors.

"Introducing first the challengers, from Ōgaki, Gifu, Japan…HIROSHI TANAHASHI!" Kayla Braxton announced first as the crowd cheered loudly as Hiroshi poses for the crowd.

"Introducing next, from Tokyo, Japan…KAZUCHIKA OKADA!" Kayla Braxton announced next as Okada posed for the crowd as they cheered loudly for him.

That's the end of the chapter and yeah this was fun. I hope everyone likes how this chapter went. Damn, this was a long one. I got lost in the zone when I wrote Ruby vs. Okada vs. Tanahashi that I didn't realize how long this chapter became. Still, I don't think many of you will complain about this, right?

Also, yeah, this is the first crossover with NXT and New-Japan Pro-Wrestling. Not bad huh? I know what the lineup was for Wrestling Dontaku of this year. But I wanted to make some changes to it to fit in with the NXT talent.

So, hope its fine. Also, yeah, the next chapter will be Backlash. It probably won't be as long as this chapter. But I will do my best to make it good.
