And now, UCW presents...
NO ESCAPE!
We're in Baton Rouge, Louisiana within an arena decorated with cages, chains, and all these kinds of stuff. The crowd is cheering loudly as pyroes are shot everywhere.
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the second UCW PPV of 2020, No Escape! I'm Bobby Senior alongside Joey Mickey!"
"The Ultra Rumble has been one of our company's greatest shows, Bobby!" Joey said. "Will this show continue the streak and give UCW a great start for our new decade?"
"I sure hope so, but right now, we're gonna kick off this show with a Steel Cage Match!" Indeed, a steel cage got lowered around the ring for the upcoming match.
(Loaded)
"The following contest is a Steel Cage Match where the participants must either pin, submit their opponent, or escape the cage to win! Introducing first, from New Jersey, New York, he is one half of the Rider Boyz, "The Maniac" SHADOW RIDER!"
The crowd cheered as Shadow came out and did the Jeff Hardy entrance. They all chanted: "DAREDEVIL! DAREDEVIL!"
"This match has been set after this man, Shadow Rider, and his opponent, American Thunder, got into a conflict which led to a best of 5 series of matches between them. This is the second one as American Thunder already won the first encounter on UCW Loaded. It's 1-0! Will the Risk Taker change this tonight?"
Shadow Rider got into the cage and the ring, waiting for his opponent.
(Thunder)
"And his opponent, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, AMERICAN THUNDER!"
The atmosphere changed as the audience booed the so-called american hero out of the building. However, he did not care about them and simply made his way into the cage and the ring as the refs closed the door behind them before calling for the bell, starting the second match.
Thunder immediately attacked Shadow with a blow to the head followed by multiple ones in the corner and then caugh Shadow with a Overhead Belly-to-belly Suplex. After this, he Irish Whipped the Risk Taker in the ropes, got reversed, and knocked down by a shoulder tackle.
Shadow caught Thunder with an Atomic Drop followed by a double leg drop to his midsection and a dropkick to his face. As Thunder retreated in a corner, Shadow approached him, received a right to the face, and then got put in the corner by Thunder who gave him stomps.
He then attempted to Irish Whip Shadow in the opposite corner, but Shadow reversed, and hit him with a corner clothesline that made him sit down and followed with a Corner-aided Dropkick. Shadow gave violent and aggresive blows to Thunder before running in the ropes for Thunder to catch and slam his head against the steel cage.
After this, Thunder applied two suplexes to Shadow before going for the pin.
"1!...2! KICKOUT"
Thunder tossed Shadow into the steel cage again before rubbing his face against it, making him scream in pain. He slammed Shadow's head against the steel cage two more times before going for the pin.
"1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Thunder attempted to smash Shadow's head again, but he reversed, slamming Thunder's head against the cage. He then knocked him down with three clotheslines and a Shadow Punch (Superman Punch) before dropkicking him into a corner.
Shadow attempted to Irish Whip Thunder in the opposite corner, but got reversed and hit a shoulder counter to his face before jumping on him with a Whisper In The Wind. Thunder charged at Shadow for a clothesline which he countered with a Fatality (Falling Neckbreaker). After this, Shadow managed to kick Thunder and land a Twist Of Fate followed by the pin.
"1!...2!...KICKOUT!"
Shadow climbed a corner in hopes of escaping the cage, but Thunder followed him up and there and lifted him for a Thunder Slam all the way down into the ring. After lying down a bit, Thunder went for the pin.
"1!...2!...thre-KICKOUT!"
Thunder was shocked that Shadow kicked out of his finisher and started giving him violent blows and stomps. He then got him back up and ran in the ropes for Shadow to catch him with a Fate Breaker (Pop-up Stunner) followed by the pin.
"1!...2!...thre-KICKOUT!"
Shadow attempted to escape by the cage's door, but Thunder grabbed his foot from behind and applied his Ankle Lock submisison hold, dragging him back in. Shadow screamed in pain, but refused to give up and rolled forward to escape Thunder's hold.
He then grabbed Thunder on the ground into his Modified STFU submission hold. Thunder seemed ready to tap out, but then gave elbows to Shadow's face, forcing him to let go. He then attempted to clothesline Shadow who ducked, kicked him in the guts, and hit another Twist Of Fate. He followed with a Swanton Bomb and the pin.
"1!...2!...thre-KICKOUT!"
Shadow couldn't believe Thunder kicked out of yet another one of his finishers and went for his Sealed Fate (GTS followed by a Running Falling Neckbreaker), but Thunder escaped and pushed him head-first into the steel cage. He then caught him with another Thunder Slam and the pin.
"1!...2!...thre-KICKOUT!"
Thunder got really mad and got ready to hit another Thunder Slam which Shadow countered into a DDT. He then climbed a turnbuckle to go for a Swanton Bomb... before looking at the cage and smirked. He climbed on top of the cage's corner and jumped from there on Thunder with a huge Swanton bomb before going for the pin.
"1!...2!...3!"
"Here's your winner, SHADOW RIDER!"
The crowd cheered loudly at the Risk Taker's impressive victory and chanted: "DAREDEVIL! DAREDEVIL!"
"By my elders, have you seen that Swanton Bomb?!" Joey exclaimed.
"I sure did! He's not being called the Risk Taker for nothing!" Bobby said, rubbing his eyes in amazement.
"Yeah! It's now 1-1 for both men in this best of 5 series! Who's gonna win next time?"
