Hi Everyone and welcome back to the Fanfic that thinks that would like to wish Kurt Angle good luck in TNA, Angle vs. Joe anyone? Last time we saw Jason return to Smackdown and immediately try for revenge against John. Coming up: Jason heads to ECW to give Paul Heyman his answer, will the ECW representative let Jason leave with a simple no for an answer? Let's find out!
Here We Go!
Brotherly Hate-Chapter Fifty Eight-E-C-DUB!
"I still don't see why you felt you had to come too" muttered Jason.
The teen was sitting in a rental car with Shawn right outside the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City; Jason was there to give Paul Heyman his answer, Shawn had suddenly insisted to come along as well.
"Something in my gut tells me that Heyman might pull something".
"You sure it's not indigestion?"
"Very funny, remember the plan?"
"Yeah, I go in, you stay out here with the car, I get out ASAP".
"Good, and if you ain't back in fifteen minutes?"
"Then you come in all guns blazing and help me out".
"Right, now get going".
Jason nodded and hopped out of the car, he casually strolled into the arena and out of sight, Shawn hopped out of the car and pulled his hood up to cover his face, after sitting on the car for a few minutes his attention was caught by someone coming out a side door of the arena flanked by two heavily armoured security guards, he seemed to be having an agitated conversation over the phone, Shawn pulled his hood up further and got closer.
"… Don't see why I should go through with this, it's pretty damn obvious he's gonna say no, and for me to act like I don't know that will make me look like an idiot!"
Whatever the guy on the other end said it seemed to relax Heyman a little.
"OK, fine, yeah I think I could pull that off, uh huh, I know just the guy to do it, I'll get him now".
Heyman and his guards turned and headed back in, Shawn frowned, his gut feeling was right, Heyman was going to pull something and it wasn't gonna be good for the kid, then again Heyman probably hadn't figured on him being there, trouble was he had to get inside before he could help Jason.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inside the building Jason was walking around waiting for Heyman to go out and kick the show off, he was keeping to himself away from the other ECW stars although a couple of them acknowledged he was there. He heard the ECW music hit signalling the start of the show, moments later Heyman's music hit and he made his way out with the crowd cheering him as though he was the second coming or something, Jason merely smirked, not long now.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the ring Heyman had grabbed a mic.
"Ladies and gentlemen, since Extreme Championship Wrestling was reborn you have bared witness to some of the greatest, extremist and bloodiest battles ever seen in an ECW ring, you have seen some of the greatest names in ECW history put on the greatest performances in ECW… alright, I admit it, I'm lying through my teeth, being under the thumb of Mr. McMahon does have it's disadvantages and a toned down ECW is one of them. However, while the 'Extreme' has been toned down the 'Wrestling' is stronger than ever! You have seen performers like RVD, Sabu and Kurt Angle show why they are the best wrestlers of their generation. But I, the Messiah of ECW, have once again upstaged myself, you see while you people may enjoy seeing the originals tear the house down I have been working towards the future of ECW, in a matter of moments you will see two of the greatest young superstars in the US go one-on-one for the reborn ECW TV title, so ladies and gentlemen, I give you, firstly, from Chicago Illinois, he is a graduate of the 'Steel Domain' wrestling school and a former Ring of Honor champion…. I give you C… M… PUNK!"
CM Punk's music hit and he came out to an ovation almost equal to Heyman's, he entered the ring and shook hands with Heyman before waiting for Jason.
"Now ladies and gentlemen my second acquisition and his opponent, from Boston Massachusetts, the youngest ever person to ever hold a WWE title, he holds victories over such stars as JBL, Kurt Angle and Shawn Michaels, he is… Jason Cena!"
The DX music hit and Jason came down to ringside, one thing that stuck out was that he was wearing his street clothes, some of the smarter ECW fans realised what this meant and started booing while Jason grabbed a mic.
"Thank you Paul Heyman for that introduction, and may I say it is honestly a privilege to be in an ECW ring, although it would be more so if this was the original ECW rather than this watered down Vince McMahon version!"
Some fans cheered this remark, he drew a little confidence from it and turned back to Heyman.
"Now I will say this, three weeks ago I was down on my luck and I thought I'd never work again, then I got a call from Paul Heyman offering me a job here in ECW saying he could give me the opportunities Smackdown never could, and for that, thank you. But, recent events taken into account, no disrespect to you Paul, you fans… and especially not you Punk". He laughed inwardly at how that came out. "But after what's happened recently between me and my brother, I have to turn down this offer". Major boo's from the ECW crowd. "I'm sorry, but the situation between me and my brother has to end, maybe I'll be back another time but, for now, I'm sorry but no".
Heyman looked a little upset by this, Punk seemed disappointed he wouldn't be having a match, Heyman shook off his look quickly.
"Very well Jason, I understand and respect your decision, I wish you the best of luck against your brother, something tells me you're gonna need it".
"Thank you".
Jason turned and left the ring and began making his way to the back, but just as he reached the stage what seemed like the whole ECW roster came out to block his path, he sighed, then gave a small laugh and raised the mic.
"How did I know you weren't gonna let me just walk away?"
"Well I have become quite predictable, you see what you have to realise is that if you say no to me then you are insulting me, and if you are insulting me then you are insulting every ECW wrestler and every single ECW fan, and I'll be damned if I let that happen! You were advertised to wrestle tonight and you will do that, and seeing as how you turned down wrestling CM Punk, then I am forced to choose another opponent for you".
As Heyman finished the ECW guys began walking forward, forcing Jason to back up towards the ring.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shawn glared at the monitor, he knew something like this would happen but he couldn't get out there to stop it with all the security around, he had managed to slip inside the building but couldn't manage to find a way out to the ring. Suddenly he saw one of Paul Heyman's two security guards walking down the corridor, and idea forming, he walked toward him.
"Hey buddy…"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile the ECW roster had backed Jason all the way to the ring causing him to climb back in, once he did they all surrounded it, trapping him inside. Heyman raised the mic.
"Well Jason now that you're back in the ring I'd like to inform you that instead of wrestling CM Punk you are now in an Extreme lumberjack match! And your opponent is… THE SANDMAN!"
Sandman's music hit and he began to enter through the crowd, Heyman left the ring, Punk went to follow but Jason stopped him.
"He's gonna do the same to you someday".
Punk didn't reply and left wit Heyman, he went backstage while Heyman stayed onstage, his two security guards came out to join him, Sandman entered the ring guzzling down a beer and holding a kendo stick, he went face-to-face with Jason then spit the beer into his face, Jason reeled away for a second allowing Sandman to bring the stick down over his head! Jason went down and Sandman began wearing him out with the stick, after hitting Jason at least a dozen times Sandman backed up and let him stand, he raised the stick again causing Jason to raise his hands in a blocking stance but he kicked the teen in the gut and hit a few right hands before clotheslining him to the outside where the ECW lumberjacks mugged him, even Trinity got some shots in before he was rolled back in, Sandman came forward and hit him in the ribs before giving the teen the white Russian legsweep with the stick, he covered but Jason kicked out, Sandman grinned and called for the ECW guys to throw in some more weapons and soon the ring was littered with trashcans, chairs, sticks and signs.
Sandman picked up a trashcan lid and waited for Jason to stand, he ran forward but the teen dodged sideways causing him to fly over the top-rope, unlike when Jason went outside the other wrestlers just stood aside while he got up and back in the ring. Jason met him as he came in with a few stomps before picking him up and whipping him and hitting an elbow, he picked up two trashcan lids and hit Sandman with the a couple of times before wrapping both of them round his head, he picked up the kendo stick but Test jumped up on the apron, the teen swung for him allowing Sandman to get up and hit him with a trashcan, he put the can over Jason's head and smashed it with the stick a few times before hitting a big shot to knock him down, he climbed to the second rope and went to hit an elbow drop on the can but Jason slipped out causing Sandman to crash through it, Jason grabbed a chair and hit Sandman in the head with it before legdropping it into his face, he covered but Sandman kicked out.
Jason got up and grabbed a stop sign, he smashed it over Sandman's head and dropped it before picking up a trashcan, that also was smashed over his head before the teen grabbed Sandman's own kendo stick and busted it over Sandman's head, he covered but Sandman kicked out again. Jason picked him up and tried a whip, it was reversed but he ducked a clothesline and caught Sandman with a forearm before nipping up straight away and posing for the crowd, who responded by booing even harder, he waited for Sandman to start getting up and went to hit the ropes but the lumberjacks pulled him out and began beating him down again, before picking him up for Balls Mahoney to hit his punch combo before rolling Jason back in for Sandman to hit a piledriver, he covered but Jason kicked out.
Sandman stomped Jason down and hit him with a chair, he then called for his ECW partners to get him something, that something turned out to be a table, they slipped it in to him while he hit Jason with the chair again, he set the table up and climbed to the top-rope, he was just about to jump but Jason suddenly kicked out on the table and knocked the referee into the ropes causing Sandman to crotch himself on the top-rope! Jason climbed up after him and threw him down, he missed the table but crashed to the mat, Jason tried to follow with a frog splash but Sandman moved Jason forward rolled to his feet and Sandman charged but the teen hit a powerslam! He covered but Sandman kicked out, the ECW fans began booing and chanting 'SAME OLD SHIT!' As Jason waited for Sandman to get up to his knees, suddenly he grabbed a trashcan at him; he caught it only for the teen to hit the shining wizard on the can right into his face! He covered but Sandman kicked out again.
Jason smirked as he began to take full control, he backed Sandman into a corner and whipped him, it was reversed and Jason smacked into the opposite corner, Sandman charged but Jason dodged causing Sandman to hit the corner hard, he reeled backwards and Jason hit a dragon suplex for a two-count, he slammed Sandman and climbed to the top-rope, he went for a cross-body but Sandman rolled through into a pin for a two-count, they both jumped up and Sandman went for a clothesline but the teen ducked and hit a big superkick, he bridged into a pin but only got two. They got up in separate corners and Jason charged across the ring with a stinger splash, Sandman staggered out and Jason hit a neckbreaker, he called for the five-knuckle-shuffle but Tommy Dreamer came in, Jason ducked his cheap-shot and knocked him down, out of the corner of his eye the teen saw Test enter the ring, he charged but Jason realised what he was going to do and ducked causing him to smash Dreamer with a big boot! Test turned round and the teen dropped him with an impaler! This had allowed Sandman to get up and hit the teen with a chair; he covered but got a two-count.
Sandman picked the teen up and tried a whip, he went for a backdrop but the teen flipped through and landed an X-Factor! He got up and went for the five-knuckle-shuffle, paused, looked at all the ECW guys, made the DX sign, and landed it! He called for the F-U… and hit it! Before he could make the pin yet another ECW guy, Mike Knox, interfered, Jason dodged his attack and clotheslined him out of the ring, he acted like he was going to cover Sandman then spun round and dived over the ropes! He crashed down on several of the lumberjacks sending them flying, more of them came round the ring but he grabbed the nearest weapon to him and began swinging at anything that moved, several of them went down before Balls Mahoney came round, Jason threw the weapon at him but he caught it only for Jason to hit him with his own punch combo before hitting him round the head with the weapon. He turned just in time to see Trinity come flying off the top-rope, he caught her and smirked as he saw more lumberjacks coming up behind him.
"Have a nice flight Trin'".
He suddenly fell back and threw Trinity over his shoulders causing her to take out the rest of the ECW wrestlers, Sandman was starting to stir so Jason got back in the ring, he glanced at the table before calling for another F-U when Heyman's security guards entered the ring, the first one charged him only to be knocked down, the second one didn't seem that keen to fight but Jason knocked him down anyway. He turned but the first guard grabbed his legs allowing the other one to take him out, they both beat him down for a few seconds before one grabbed a chair while another picked him up, the one with the chair started forward but in a split second the one holding Jason dropped him and nailed the other one with a superkick! He then turned to Jason and took off the mask to reveal Shawn! Jason laughed as he got up while Sandman grabbed what was left of his kendo stick, he swung for Jason's head but the teen ducked and Shawn hit another superkick! Sandman didn't go down but instead spun round for Jason to lift him up and F-U him through the table! The teen covered while Shawn held the lumberjacks at bay, the referee counted… and Jason got the three!
After the bell Shawn helped Jason up but the teen shrugged him off.
"Did you have to hit me so damn hard?"
"I had to make it believable, besides you did hit me first".
Jason shrugged and the two raised the arms, further enraging the ECW crowd, they went to leave but Jason suddenly stopped, he got back in and grabbed the mic from the ring announcer.
"Oh yeah I almost forgot… ECW, if you're not down with that… we got two words for ya!"
End of Chapter

Well, there ya go, Jason has ended his association with ECW and can now focus fully on Wrestlemania and John, what will happen between now and then? We'll have to wait and see.
