What the fans didn't know about with the Rumble was that each wrestler entertaining the ring is either accompanied by their own intro music or by a song played by one of the bands on stage. There was even a request made by a few female wrestler to gave music accompaniment to the ring with their intro that at the last minute was granted. Now Dove, Ruby Soho and the others who made the request were talking with the bands to work on and rehearse their intro without the fans being allowed on the pool deck.
"Dove are you really going to let Jericho or Hollywood Undead pick the song for you without knowing which one is playing for you…" Ruby asked still not believing her.
" Why not, I told them to surprise me. Professionally, Jericho has always been looking out for me in the ring since I was a rookie. Personally… I did him dirty and I've got a ton of ass kissing to do to make things right with him" she explained to her favorite co-worker to wrestle against.
" I remember you telling me about ditching him in the middle of the tour and breaking up only after you moved to LA. I'm still surprised to see you're talking now."
Dove sighed "Truth was I was scared he'd reject me after I found out I was having miscarriage to a baby I didn't know I was pregnant with. Chris loves kids and I killed this one…" she explained lowering her head onto the table to cry silently next to her female bestie Ruby.
Ruby just rested over her and hugged Doves back " I'm Soo sorry sweetie." she whispered softly looking up she looked around for Jericho feeling more like he should be here with her in that moment. " Hey, find Jericho… " she called out to Danhausen the second she spotted him.
It only took him a few moments before he came running back with Jericho right behind him and when he took one look at how Dove was sitting with her hoodie up covering her head while her shoulders shook in silent sobs Jericho knelt down at Doves side and began to speak to her so softly that only she could hear him. There was a nod of her hear after a few moments and she sat up wiping her face with the sleeve of her Dove and Granade hoodie before he stood up and hugged her.
"I'm alright now, I just guess I needed a moment to let that pain out." Dove explained to everyone before looking at Jericho who was now squatting at her side once again. "I said it out loud... I didn't skip past with alternative words and just said what I was scared to death of... and why" she tried to explain in a shaky voice.
"Ruby, Danhausen, Fozzy, Undead... We're all here for you Baby!" he whispered honestly as he kissed her forehead tenderly "Now how about you and I go get some lunch and we'll work on your rumble entrance." he suggested with a mischievous smirk plastered on his face. "There's also karaoke going on right now if you want to have fun. I've got time right now that's all yours Kitten!"
"Yes, let's do this Karaoky..." Danhausen spoke up putting his vote in which made Dove duck her head to keep everyone from seeing her blushing (except for Jericho. who was right in her direct line of sight smirking)
He still had things to do, he always had things to do for that matter but right now he was more worried about Doves mental health with her new sobriety. He would drop mike and rush to her side in a split second if needed simply because even after all this time he never lost his true feelings for her. "Let's go then!" he exclaimed as he helped Dove stand up as he stood. Not letting go of her hand he simply adjusted the hold and wove his fingers in with Her's as he no longer cared if anyone seen.
Walking inside he let the others get in head of them before ducking down and whispering softly to Dove "Everything will be alright, I'm sad that it happened but it was ectopic and just wasn't in the cards. I could never hate you for having a miscarriage, Baby. I just wish I was told so I could drop everything and stay at your side... just like I'm doing now... I have shit to do and I'm dropping it because I need to be here during your struggles in keeping sober. It's easy to drink to forget for a moment but at some time you have to let it sink in and get help. Your 'Blood family' can suck my dick! Johnny, Paul, Steph... They are your real family... just like I still am if you want me." Dove nodded her head then bumped her closest shoulder into Jericho.
Back in where everyone was doing Karaoke, though they had let go of hand's Dove and Jericho stood smooched up against each other as they watched others singing after a bit Danhausen took the mike to offer a 'no swearing' challenge which the fans were automatically wanting to happen, just because... Danhausen suggested it. Only everyone didn't expect Hollywood Undead to take it up first and sing to a song J3T actually ends up singing at home because he had daughters according to Funny Man.
(J3T) I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
I'm as tough as the crust of the Earth is
I move mountains, I move churches
And I glow, 'cause I know what my worth is
I don't ask how hard the work is
Got a rough indestructible surface
Diamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em
I take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded, but
Under the surface
I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus
Under the surface
Was Hercules ever like, "Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus?"
Under the surface
I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service
A flaw or a crack
The straw in the stack
That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back, it's
(Danny)Pressure, like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa, oh, oh
Give it to your sister, your sister's older
Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
If I fall to
(J-dog) Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa, oh, oh
Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger
See if she can hang on a little longer
Who am I if I can't carry it all?
If I falter
(J3T) Under the surface
I hide my nerves, and it worsens, I worry something is gonna hurt us
Under the surface
The ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
Under the surface
I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this?
(Danny) Line up the dominoes
A light wind blows
You try to stop it tumbling
But on and on it goes
But wait, if I could shake the crushing weight of expectations
Would that free some room up for joy
Or relaxation, or simple pleasure?
Instead, we measure this growing pressure
Keeps growing, keep going
'Cause all we know is
(Everyone) Pressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip 'til you just go pop, whoa-oh-oh
Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt, and
See if she can handle every family burden
Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
No mistakes, just
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick 'til it's ready to blow, whoa, oh, oh
Give it to your sister and never wonder
If the same pressure would've pulled you under
Who am I if I don't have what it takes?
No cracks, no breaks
No mistakes, no pressure
Everyone around was singing to the song by the end of it with how into it everyone was into the Rap version of Surface Pressure.
"Now Danhausen has to constantly remind this next person not to swear so let's see how they get through this song... Birdy, you're next!"
Shaking her head, no Dove was then pushed and guided up onto the stage by several of her 'friends' from the independent circuit while Jericho stood back grinning like hell.
Let's get down to business
To defeat the Huns.
Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?
You're the saddest bunch I've ever met,
But you can bet before were through,
Mister I'll make a man out of you.
Tranquil as a forest,
But on fire within.
Once you find your center,
You are sure to win.
You're a spineless pale pathetic lot
And you haven't got a clue.
Somehow I'll make a man out of you.
(Chan-Po)I'm never gonna catch my breath.
(Yow)Say goodbye to those who knew me.
(Ling)Why was I a fool in school for cutting gym?
(Mushu)This guy's got them scared to death!
(Mulan/Ping)Hope he doesn't see right through me.
(Chan-Po)Now I really wish that I knew how to swim!
(Be a man) {fans}
We must be swift as the coursing river,
(Be a man){fans}
With all the force of a great typhoon,
(Be a man){fans}
With all the strength of a raging fire,
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon.
Time is racing toward us,
'Til the Huns arrive.
Heed my every order,
And you might survive.
You're unsuited for the rage of war,
So pack up, go home, you're through.
How could I make a man out of you?
(Be a man){fans}
We must be swift as the coursing river,
(Be a man){fans}
With all the force of a great typhoon,

With all the strength of a raging fire,
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon.

Walking over to the side she looked at Chris Jericho and dared him to join in this challenge too. Walking up to the table he chose his song and stood there looking Dove hard in the face as he sang.
I have often dreamed of a far off place
Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me
Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face
And a voice keeps saying, "This is where I'm meant to be"
I'll be there someday, I can go the distance
I will find my way if I can be strong
I know every mile will be worth my while
When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong
Down an unknown road to embrace my fate
Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you
And a thousand years would be worth the wait
It may take a lifetime, but somehow I'll see it through
And I won't look back, I can go the distance
And I'll stay on track, no, I won't accept defeat
It's an uphill slope, but I won't lose hope
'Til I go the distance, and my journey is complete
But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part
For a hero's strength is measured by his heart
Like a shooting star, I will go the distance
I will search the world, I will face its harms
I don't care how far, I can go the distance
'Til I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms
I will search the world, I will face its harms
'Til I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms
Danhausen and Ruby both looked at each other with a knowing smirk plastered upon the female's face, Jericho was Flirting HARD with Dove right out in front of everyone. With all of the fun done the bands and wrestlers all had to get ready for the Rock-n-Rumble match that was set as that night's main entertainment.
