Chapter 10: Bad News Barrett vs. Corey Riffin
God save our queen...
Upon hearing the ONLY set of lyrics in the song, the crowd starts to boo for the incoming superstar as he walks out from the red, black, and white stage, with a black cape with his Intercontinental Championship around his waist. He also seems to be holding a microphone in his hands. The champion throws his cape off his shoulders, which releases a red pyro surrounding the stage.
*BOOM* *KA-BOOM*
*DING* *DING* *DING*
Ring Announcer: The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Preston, England. Weighing in at 246 pounds, he is the WWE Intercontinental Champion, Bad News Barrett!
As his song fades away, Bad News Barrett shows off a toothy grin before speaking into the microphone, to let everyone hear his thick British accent.
Bad News Barrett: Ladies and gentlemen! I'm afraid I got some bad news! We're getting close to WrestleMania, and as you can tell, I'm going to WrestleMania as your Intercontinental Champion! Now I wanna send a message to all of my WrestleMania opponents. To, Stardust, to R-Truth, to Dolph Ziggler, Luke Harper, and even those idiots, Daniel Bryan and Dean Ambrose...
Upon calling the two superstars "idiots", Bad News Barrett gets even more boos than before.
Bad News Barrett: what I'm gonna do with this blue haired punk tonight, is what's gonna happen to you all, at WrestleMania! Thank you very much!
Laney, who is still in the locker room, regaining her strength watches the whole scene unfold as Bad News Barrett grins again and a hashtag stamp slams onto the screen
[#BNB]
The hashtag clears away as another song fills the arena that sends the WWE Universe to absolute cheers. The stage is filled with red and black flashes with the WWE logos on either side. As another song fills the arena.
Sick Tricky Lick and a Pick Flick. Playing head to head in this game.
Once I'm done with you, you won't be the same.
Mashing buttons is a lame-o trick.
Sick Tricky Lick and a Pick Flick.
I've got the high score cuz I'm the front man.
I'll jam a phat riff and melt your face off.
Immortalize me.
I'm the front man.
He's the front man.
The stage glows in red, blue, and purple as Corey walks out to the ring somehow receiving a warmer reception than Bad News.
Ring Announcer: And his opponent, from Peaceville, California. Weighing in at 127, Corey Riffin!
Obsessed with being gamer number one.
No time to sit around and suck a thumb.
Let's go. Let's get it on. What makes you tick?
Sick Tricky Lick and a Pick Flick.
Corey walks past the groupies, Allie and Kate who faint as they see Corey walk past them. However, they quickly get back up and raise their "I *Heart* GB!" and "Grojband Rules!" posters to the sky.
I've got the high score cuz I'm the front man.
I'll jam a phat riff and melt your face off.
Immortalize me.
I'm the front man.
He's the front man.
Sick Tricky Lick and a Pick Flick!

His song comes to an end as Corey steps into the ring face to face with BNB. The referee sends the signal to let the match begin.
*DING* *DING* *DING*
The match goes underway as Corey and Barrett lock arms as they wrestle against one another. Bad News throws Corey to one of the ring ropes and runs after him where he leaps and bodyslams into him.
Corey, however, retaliates by kicking Bad News Barrett away before any damage could be made. Barrett regains his balance as he runs after Corey, only for him to get out of the way and makes Bad News' shoulder hit the ring pole. He screams in pain as Corey starts attacking him on his back to further weaken him. Corey picks up the Intercontinental Champion and Irish whips him towards the ropes. As Bad News Barrett springs towards Corey, he leaps up and bodyslams him down to the picks up his leg ad he goes for the pin.
Referee: One...
But BNB kicks out before the referee could reach two. He then grabs Corey ' head and starts punching it. As he brutally and viciously attacks the blue haired singer, he screams to him.
Bad News Barrett: You shouldn't have stepped up to the big leagues you little piece of trash!
He slaps Corey straight in the face which can be heard all the way to the cheap seats. Kate and Allie start freaking out as they want to help Corey by trying to go over the barricades and stop Bad News Barrett from beating Corey up. However, security prevents that from happening as they keep them at bay.
Meanwhile back in the ring, Bad News Barrett continues shouting as he keeps slapping Corey in the face.
Bad News Barrett: When I'm done with you, you won't be able to make it to WrestleMania!
Barrett picks him up for his secondary finisher, Wasteland, but before he could slam him down to connect the move, Corey elbows his face several times before making Barrett let him go. Corey then delivers some payback as he returns the punches BNB gave him.
Bad News Barrett falls to the ground as Corey keeps punching him, afterwards he stops and climbs the turnbuckles as he looks at his semi knocked out opponent. He then performs the move of the legendary "Macho Man" Randy Savage, the Diving Elbow Drop, which he performs successfully as his elbow hits Barrett's face. He goes for the pin.
Referee: One... two...
However, he kicks out of the pin, stunning the crowd. Barrett punches Corey away with a humongous punch as he stands up. Ones Bad News Barrett was on his feet, he turns his black elbow pad inside out, showing the red side as he sets the semi-unconscious Corey for the Bull Hammer. But as Barrett charges his elbow at Corey's face, he ducks his attack and springs past the ring ropes, propelling himself onto Barrett as he performs the Spear. With no time to lose, Corey pins Bad News Barrett as the referee counts the pin with the crowd chanting along.
Referee and the Crowd: One... two... three!
*DING* *DING* *DING*
Corey's music starts to play again, as he gets off of the now knocked out cold Champion, and the referee raises his hand in victory.
Ring Announcer: The winner of this match, Corey Riffin!
Corey quickly climbs the turnbuckles as he makes the "Rock On" hand gesture. Allie and Kate scream the loudest out of everybody as Corey exits the ring as he makes his way back to the stage, still keeping the "Rock On" gesture.
*RING THE BELL TRANSITION*
Corey makes it to the locker room as Kin, Kon, and Laney start cheering for him and his recent victory over the Intercontinental Champion.
Laney: I knew you could do it Core!
Corey: Thanks Lanes!
Kin and Kon share two thumbs up which makes Corey smile. As the happy scene was unraveling itself, the WWE chairman, Vince McMahon walks in.
Vince McMahon: I saw all of your matches. I'll have to say, they were quite entertaining.
Corey: Thanks Mr. McMahon.
Vince McMahon: Too bad they weren't at WrestleMania, or else they wouldn't be truly unique.
Laney: I think the only WrestleMania Moment we'll have is when we play our gig at WrestleMania.
Vince McMahon: Great idea Ms. Penn.
The gray haired man begins to walk out of the licker room before being stopped by Corey.
Corey: Oh! Mr. McMahon, can we ask you something?
Vince McMahon: Sure
Corey: Can we get a backstage pass for a friend of mine? He's a big fan of WWE and wants to go backstage at WrestleMania in two weeks.
Vince McMahon: Normally, I would object to this request, but you are our guests so I can help you out with that.
Corey: Thanks.
And with that, Vince McMahon leaves the room.
Kin: Why, did you ask for a backstage pass?
Corey: It's my plan for new lyrics at WrestleMania.
To be Continued...
A/N: What do you think Corey's plan is involving a backstage ticket for WrestleMania? All will be revealed in due time...
Anyways, we got Grojband's matches out of the way. So we're getting closer to Grojband's biggest gig ever.
