Chapter Thirty Eight: No Mercy
---x---
A/N: Right, in my version of No Mercy there's no six-man tag match. I have something better in mind instead.
---x---
No Mercy was live from Chicago Illinois, Triple H had just beaten Randy Orton and had won his Eleventh World Title. But then Riot Time hit, and Kendrick, London, and Machetti came out from the back. Machetti was carrying the clipboard he had gotten Hornswoggle to sign with him. "Ladies and gentlemen," announced Lillian Garcia, "please welcome, Paul London, Brian Kendrick, and Machetti!" The three superstars got in the ring and Machetti commandeered Lillian's mic.
"Well, as you can see, Paul, Brian, and I don't have matches tonight," Machetti pointed out to the Chicago crowd. That got a few boos, "But have no fear," continued Machetti, as he held up the clipboard, "because I have a match right here!" The fans cheered in approval, "So right here, right now, we're going to host a Ten-Man, Over the Top Rope Battle Royal. The winning superstar will win his team a title shot against the World Tag Team Champions Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch. The teams have been notified before hand, and now let's get this thing started."
Machetti walked over to Lillian and handed her the mic and the clipboard with the contract on it. "Introducing first, Team One of the Five Team Battle Royal, weighing in at a combined weight of three hundred and eighty pounds… Paul London and Brian Kendrick!" London and Kendrick raised their arms when their names were mentioned and received a decent amount of cheers from the fans.
Then the music of the World Tag Team Champions hit, and the Redneck Wrecking Crew came out from the back, "Introducing Team Two of the Five Team Battle Royal, weighing in at a combined weight of five hundred and two pounds… they are the World Tag Team Champions, Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch!" Cade and Murdoch came down to the ring.
"Now hold on a minute, Machetti," interrupted Cade as he spoke into the mic he had brought out with him, "I remember you said that the winning team will get a title shot against us. You never said what will happen when we win!"
Machetti apologized to Lillian when he took her mic again, then turned to face the Champions, "Well it says right here on the contract, that if either of you two win the Battle Royal, that you can pick one of the other four teams, and which ever team you choose will not receive another title shot as long as you two are champions. Now, are you done?"
"Actually no," replied Murdoch as he took the mic from Cade, "Machetti, you said you were competing in this thing, but you're not actually a member of the London and Kendrick team, what happens if you win?"
"If I win?" repeated Machetti, "just like what would happen if Paul over here won, my teammate, and myself will win a World Tag Team Title shot."
"Who's this teammate of yours?" demanded Murdoch.
"He's currently under contract with the WWE and he's beaten the two of you before," replied Machetti, "but if you want to know who he is, you're going to have to wait just like everyone else."
The Tag Team Champions glared at Machetti as he handed the mic back to Lillian, then told her to continue the introductions, "Introducing, Team Three, from Oban Scotland, weighing in at a combined weight of thirty-four stone… Robbie and Rory, the Highlanders!" Halfway through Lillian's introduction, the Scottish theme music had hit and the Highlanders came out from the back. Robbie and Rory joined the other five men in the ring and stood in a corner.
Then the theme music of the World's Greatest Tag Team hit, and Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas came out from the back, "Introducing Team Four, weighing in at a combined weight of four hundred and eighty seven pounds, Shelton Benjamin, Charlie Haas, the World's Greatest Tag Team!" Benjamin and Haas got in the ring and got in the only remaining empty corner.
London and Kendrick were standing in one corner, Cade and Murdoch in another, the Highlanders in a third, and Benjamin and Haas in the final corner. Machetti glanced around him and noticed he was out numbered, beside him Lillian looked a little nervous at being surrounded by the other eight combatants. But apparently, Machetti didn't appear to be nervous, he gave Lillian a nod telling her to proceed.
"And introducing the members of Team Five," announced Lillian, "in the ring, weighing in at two hundred and twenty pounds, from Detroit Michigan… Machetti!" Machetti raised his arms up in the air and received the loudest ovation so far. "And his partner…" started Lillian, the fans were on their seats wanting to hear who his partner was, then JEFF HARDY's theme music hit! The fans erupted in a standing ovation as Jeff did his usual dancing as he made his way down to the ring. "… from Cameron North Carolina, weighing in at two hundred and twenty five pounds, he is the current WWE Intercontinental Champion… JEFF HARDY!"
Jeff slid into the ring as Lillian left and joined Machetti in the middle of the ring. Machetti smirked then held out his hand to Jeff. Jeff grinned and shook Machetti's hand, then turned and glanced at the other eight superstars standing around him. The bell rang, signaling the start of the contest. The rules were relatively simple, a superstar was eliminated when they were thrown over the top rope and both feet touched the floor. The last wrestler remaining would get the win for his team.
Machetti reached out and grabbed Jeff arm, then whipped him toward Robbie and Rory, but before Jeff put on the breaks, and reversed it, launched Machetti at the Highlanders. Machetti jumped up into the air and flew at the Scotsman for a Double Flying Clothesline, but Robbie and Rory, quickly ducked down, causing Machetti to fly over them, and go crashing into the corner. But while they were looking at Machetti, Jeff rushed at the Highlanders and took them both down with a Double Clothesline from behind.
Jeff took a few steps back as Robbie and Rory pushed themselves up off of the mat, but Machetti hoisted himself up onto the middle rope, then jumped off and drove each of his feet into the back of one of the Highlanders, driving them down to the mat for a Double Foot Stomp.
On the other side of the ring, London and Kendrick were being double teamed by the Tag Team Champions and the World's Greatest Tag Team Respectively. Cade and Murdoch were trying to dump Paul over the top rope, but London had wrapped his legs around the middle rope, and was holding onto the top rope as tight as he could, hoping to avoid being eliminated. While at the same time, Kendrick had been whipped into the corner, and Benjamin ran forward and hit a Running Crossbody into the turnbuckle, then he took a step back, allowing Haas to rush passed him and hit a Running Dropkick right to Kendrick's stomach.
Meanwhile, Jeff and Machetti had pulled Robbie and Rory up off of the mat. Machetti dragged Rory over to the opposite side of the ring, while Jeff kept Robbie pinned in the corner. Then at the same time, Machetti and Jeff whipped Robbie and Rory across the ring at each other. The two Highlanders collided in the middle of the ring, but stayed standing. But not for long, because the next second Machetti rushed forward and nailed Rory with a Corkscrew Dropkick to the back, causing him to launch into Robbie. Robbie tripped over Jeff, who was crouch behind him, causing both Highlanders to tumble down to the ground in a heap.
Jeff and Machetti got back up then walked over to Cade and Murdoch who were busy attempting to eliminate London. Machetti smirked at Jeff then tapped Murdoch on the shoulder, in an attempt to get his attention. Murdoch slowly turned around, only for Machetti to promptly kick him in the stomach then, drive his head down to the mat with an Impaler. Cade saw that his partner had gone down, and turned around to see what had happened, but Jeff grabbed him, took a step back, then nailed Cade with a Twist of Fate… ONTO MURDOCH!
Machetti had taken this time to get in the corner and climb up onto the top rope, and once Hardy had hit the Twist of Fate on Cade, he did a back-flip and came crashing down on both Tag Team Champions with a Moonsault. With his attackers preoccupied, London climbed back into the ring, then rushed across the ring and took Shelton Benjamin down from behind. Haas was momentarily distracted by watching his partner go down, allowing Kendrick to grab onto him, and nail him with Sliced Bread Number Two. London followed up by running forward, doing a back-flip, then came crashing down on Haas for a Running Shooting Star Press.
Meanwhile, now that Cade and Murdoch were down, Machetti and Jeff went over to Rory and Robbie and pulled them up off of the mat. Machetti acted first by whipping Robbie into the corner, then Jeff followed up by whipped Rory into the same corner, causing him to crashing into Robbie. Machetti darted forward, jumped up and hit Rory with a Crossbody to the back, once again driving him into Robbie, then Machetti dropped down on his hands and knees. Allowing Jeff to run forward, jumped onto his back, then hit Poetry in Motion on Rory, driving him into Robbie a third time.
Jeff backed away and Machetti got back up, then they grabbed Rory, spun him around, then worked together and hit him with a Double Vertical Suplex. Machetti and Jeff turned back around, grabbed onto Robbie, then pulled him forward and hit him with a Double Hip Toss, causing Robbie to go crashing back-first onto Rory's stomach. Machetti turned to Jeff and nodded. Jeff smirked then ran to the corner and jumped up onto the top rope. Jeff turned around to face the prone Highlanders, causing the fans to start cheering like crazy. Jeff jumped off of the top rope and did a front flip, and came crashing down on top of both Highlanders for a Swanton Bomb.
Jeff rolled off of Rory and pulled held his back while getting up, while Machetti grabbed Rory, pulled him up to his feet, ran with him, then tossed him over the top rope and down to the floor. "RORY MCALLISTER HAS BEEN ELMINATED!" announced Lillian from the Time-Keeper's Corner.
Machetti turned to Jeff and motioned to Robbie with his head. Jeff nodded and pulled Robbie up off of the mat and whipped him towards the ropes. Machetti ducked down then launched Robbie up into the air and over the top rope with a Back Body Drop. Robbie came crashing down right on top of Rory, who had just gotten back up to his feet, causing both Highlanders to be knocked to the ground. "ROBBIE MCALLISTER HAS BEEN ELMINATED!"
The Highlanders were now out of the match, and after they managed to pull themselves up off of the floor, they headed to the back. Jeff and Machetti smirked at the Highlanders from the ring, and then slapped hands. Machetti and Jeff turned around, only to be leveled by a pair of Clotheslines, courtesy of Cade and Murdoch. The Redneck Wrecking Crew took advantage and began stomping on Hardy and Machetti.
On the other side of the ring, London had Shelton in one corner, and Kendrick had Haas in the other. London jumped up onto the middle rope in front of Shelton, then grabbed onto him, and fell backwards, launching him high into the air for a Monkey Flip. Benjamin landed with a thud and rolled onto his stomach. In the other corner, Kendrick ran into the corner and did a back-flip off of Haas, then followed up with a Dropkick for Dr. Smoothie's Secret Recipe, driving Haas back into the corner.
London rushed at Shelton then jumped up into the air and did a back-flip, looking for a Running Shooting Star Press to the back. But suddenly Shelton moved up to his knees, and caught Paul, then drove his head down to the mat with a low DDT. In the other corner, Kendrick rushed at Haas looking for a Corner Crossbody, but Haas suddenly dropped down, causing Brian to go face first into the turnbuckle. Haas slipped behind him, hooked his arms around Kendrick's waist, then hit him with a Release German Suplex.
On the other side of the ring, Cade grabbed onto Murdoch and lifted him up, then dropped him down on top of Machetti for an Aided Leg Drop. Murdoch quickly got back up then he and Cade turned away from Machetti and pulled Jeff up off of the mat. Cade hit Hardy with a knee to the stomach, then turned around and ran to the ropes behind him, while at the same time Murdoch ran and bounced off of the ropes on the other side of the ring. Murdoch ducked down and clipped Jeff's knee from behind, while at the same time Cade practically took his head off with a huge Clothesline, for the Sweet and Sour. Jeff was launched up into the air, then came crashing down with a thud.
Cade and Murdoch smirked at their handiwork, then went back over to Machetti and pulled him up off of the mat. Cade and Murdoch ran with Machetti and tossed him over the top rope. Cade turned around, but Murdoch watched long enough to see that Machetti had grabbed onto the ropes and had not been eliminated. Murdoch rushed at Machetti, looking to clothesline him off of the ring apron. But Machetti ducked down then drove his shoulder into Murdoch's gut from in between the top and middle rope.
Murdoch staggered backward while Cade turned around to see why Lillian hadn't announced Machetti's elimination. But Machetti quickly hoisted himself up onto the top rope, then springboarded off of it, spun horizontally in mid air, then took both Cade and Murdoch down with a Spinning Springboard Crossbody. Machetti rolled off of the Tag Team Champions, then got up to his feet and helped Jeff up off of the mat.
On the other side of the ring, Haas and Benjamin were standing over London and Kendrick. Charlie and Shelton pulled Paul up off of the mat, then whipped him into the ropes. But when London bounced off of them and came back, he jumped up and hit both Haas and Benjamin with a Double Clothesline. Charlie and Shelton staggered backwards, then dripped over Kendrick, who was on his hands and knees behind them. London pulled Haas up while Kendrick pulled up Benjamin, then they whipped the two of them into opposite corners. Paul and Brian turned around and nodded then turned and rushed at each other looking smashed Haas and Benjamin into the corner.
At the same time, Jeff and Machetti Double Whipped Cade into a corner, then grabbed Murdoch and rammed him into the opposite turnbuckle. Jeff then ran across the ring and hit Cade with a clothesline. When Jeff turned around, Machetti nodded at him, then the two of them sprinted forward and rushed towards the opposite corners. The only problem was, London and Kendrick were doing the exact same thing, at the exact same time. All four superstars were rushing across the ring at almost the same time.
London and Kendrick were just planning on running passed each other, but when they saw Machetti and Jeff coming they ducked down slightly. Jeff arrived in the middle of the ring first and dropped down in order to do a Baseball Slide in before London and Kendrick reached each other. London and Kendrick rushed passed each other with the heads still ducked, allowing Machetti to leapfrog over them and land safely on the other side.
Murdoch had attempted to dodge Jeff and ran passed him, but Hardy simply jumped up onto the top rope, then nailed Murdoch with the Whisper in the Wind. London on the other hand, nailed Shelton with a Clothesline, then grabbed him and hit a Running Bulldog into the middle of the ring, while at the same time, Kendrick jumped up onto the middle rope, then launched Haas into the middle of the ring with a Monkey Flip. Finally Machetti jumped up and hit Cade with a Corner Crossbody, then jumped back and sent him flying with a Hurricurana, for the Thunder and Lightning Combo.
Hardy, London, Kendrick, and Machetti all stared at each other and realized Haas, Benjamin, Cade, and Murdoch were all down in the middle of the ring. They all must have been thinking the same thing, because they reached forward and grabbed the superstar they had just hit and dragged them closer to the corner they were standing near. Then as one Jeff, Paul, and Machetti all turned to Brian.
Kendrick realized he had to go first, and climbed up onto the top rope, then lunged off of it at Haas. He spun to the side while pumping his arms and legs for a Turning Frogsplash, AKA Left Turn at Albuquerque. Brian rolled off of Charlie and held his stomach then glanced over at Jeff. Jeff nodded and climbed the top rope, then came off and hit Murdoch with the Swanton Bomb.
The crowd was going crazy, from the looks of it, all four of them were trying to outdo each other in terms of aerial moves. London went next and climbed up onto the top rope in his corner, then launched himself off of the rope, and came crashing down for a 540 Splash, the Calling London. London rolled off of Shelton and sat up, and then, along with Kendrick and Hardy, looked at Machetti expectantly.
Machetti knew he needed to outdo a 540 Splash in order win the 'competition' so he grabbed onto Cade's legs and dragged him even closer towards the corner. Machetti turned away from Cade and climbed up onto the top rope. Machetti jumped off of the top turnbuckle, and Machetti launched up into the air, then spun around 180 degrees before doing a 630 and came crashing down back-first on Cade for a Corkscrew 630 Senton. The fans in the arena, as well as London, Kendrick, and Hardy, applauded as Machetti rolled off of Cade and pulled himself up with the ropes.
Machetti pulled Cade up off of the mat, then called Jeff over. Machetti and Hardy stood side-by-side, then hoisted Cade up into the air for a Double Vertical Suplex, Jeff and Machetti slingshotted Cade off of top rope, then slammed him down to the mat with a Double Slingshot Suplex. Jeff got up first and walked around Cade, then lifted his legs up off of the mat, then glanced over at Machetti and nodded. Machetti walked over to Cade, then jumped up into the air, did a front flip and came down for a Flip Leg Drop across the throat, while at the same time, Jeff did his usual Groin Leg Drop.
On the other side of the ring, London and Kendrick had pulled Shelton off of the mat, then whipped him into the ropes. When he came back they launched him high up into the air, then brought him crashing back down to the mat for a Double Flapjack. London and Kendrick took a few steps back, then rushed at Shelton and nailed him with a low Double Dropkick right to the face, Shelton was flipped up into the air and landed hard on his back.
Meanwhile, after finishing with Cade, Jeff and Machetti rushed across the ring, then jumped into the air, both superstars did simultaneous front-flips, then came crashing down on Charlie Haas, Jeff with a Front Flip Senton, Machetti with a Front Flip Leg Drop. Machetti and Hardy rolled off of Haas, then picked him up off of the mat and whipped him into the corner. Machetti and Jeff walked forward then lifted Charlie up and sat him up on the top rope. Both superstars then climbed up onto the middle rope on either side of Haas. Machetti glanced at Jeff and nodded, then they both threw one of Haas' arms over their shoulder, then hoisted him up into the air and fell backwards, slammed Haas down to the mat for a Double Superplex.
London and Kendrick went over to Trevor Murdoch and pulled him up off of the mat. Paul and Brian dragged Murdoch over to the ropes, then reached down, grabbed his legs, and dumped him over the top rope. But Murdoch acted quickly and grabbed onto the bottom rope, preventing himself from falling down to the floor. London and Kendrick, acted quickly and slid their feet under the bottom rope and pressed them into Murdoch, hoping to push him off of the apron. But Murdoch quickly wrapped both of his arms and both of his legs around the bottom rope, it was safe to say that he wasn't going anywhere.
But while London and Kendrick were busy trying to eliminate Murdoch, Cade rushed at them from behind and took both men down with a Double Clothesline. Cade pulled London up off of the mat, then kneed him in the stomach. Cade ran backwards to the ropes, then bounced off of them and came at London looking to take his head off with a Lariat Clothesline. But as Cade was approaching London suddenly jumped up into the air and did a back-flip, taking Cade down with a Dropsault.
At the same time, Murdoch had rolled into the ring and jumped up into the air and came down on top of the back of Brian's head for a Standing Leg Drop. Murdoch reached down and pulled Kendrick up off of the mat, but suddenly Brian grabbed onto his face, and dropped down onto his ass, sending Murdoch staggering backwards into the ropes for a Jawbreaker. Kendrick rushed at Murdoch and jumped into the air, looking for a Flying Clothesline, but Murdoch suddenly dropped down and pulled the top rope down with him, causing Kendrick to tumble over it and land hard on the floor.
Murdoch had just stood up and was gloating at Kendrick, when suddenly, London came from behind and dumped him over the top rope too. "BRIAN KENDRICK AND TREVOR MURDOCH HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED!" came Lillian's announcement from the corner. On the other side of the ring, Machetti and Hardy glanced across the ring and saw Cade grab London from behind and whip him into the corner.
Machetti and Hardy got up, then Machetti went over to Shelton and pulled him up off the mat, while Jeff did the same with Haas. But out of nowhere Shelton launched out a kick, aiming for Machetti's face. But Machetti caught his leg, then swung it to the side. Shelton whipped his leg around and connected with the side of Machetti's head for the Dragon Whip.
Jeff was momentarily distracted by seeing his partner go down, leaving Haas open to nail him with a Low Blow. Haas slipped behind Hardy, when suddenly Shelton rushed at them and connected with a Super Kick to Jeff's face, causing Haas to launch Hardy over his head and bring him crashing down to the mat for a German Suplex.
Haas and Benjamin turned back to Machetti, then picked him up and draped his neck on top of the top rope. Haas held Machetti's legs on his shoulders, while Shelton sprinted across the ring. Shelton bounced off of the ropes and came back at full speed, looking for the Leapfrog Senton, but suddenly Jeff did a Baseball Slide in front of Shelton, causing him to trip over him and fall on his face.
Haas glanced over his shoulder to see what happened to his partner, allowing Machetti to take advantage. While Haas was distracted, Machetti wrapped his legs tightly around Haas' head, then yanked himself forward, taking both himself and Haas out of the ring with a Head Scissors Take Down. Machetti grabbed onto the ropes to keep himself from hitting the floor, but Haas didn't. "CHARLIE HAAS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!"
Machetti slowly rolled under the bottom rope and back into the ring. Half of the competitors had been eliminated. The five left were Lance Cade, Paul London, Shelton Benjamin, Jeff Hardy, and Machetti. The only team that was entirely intact was the makeshift team of Hardy and Machetti. The Highlanders weren't even in the running anymore.
Machetti started walking towards Shelton, who got up and tried backing away, only to back right into Jeff Hardy. Hardy shoved Benjamin into Machetti who grabbed him for a Side Headlock, Jeff came over and got in a Side Headlock of his own, then at the same time, both superstars spun around, and dropped to the ground, nailing Shelton with a Double Twist of Fate, right in the middle of the ring.
Machetti nodded to Jeff, then he went to one corner, while Jeff went to the one opposite one. They were about to lunge off when suddenly Lance Cade sprinted across the ring and nailed Hardy with a Clothesline, Hardy tumbled backwards, and desperately held onto the turnbuckle with his legs. Machetti jumped off of his corner, and went to rush to his partner aid, but he ran right into a big Clothesline, courtesy of Shelton Benjamin.
Without Machetti interfering, Cade lifted up Jeff's legs and dumped him off of the top rope and down to the floor. "JEFF HARDY HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!"
Cade smirked down at Hardy, then turned to Machetti and Shelton, the latter had the former's arms pinned behind his back. Cade strutted forward and hit Machetti with a hard shot to the stomach, Cade followed up by nailing another hard shot to the stomach, but before he could get off a third, London springboarded off of the top rope on the other side of the ring, and took down Cade with a Springboard Clothesline.
Machetti quickly took advantage of the fact that he was only being attacked by one opponent and stomped on Shelton's foot, then he jumped up and did a front flip, causing Shelton to flip with him and slam back-first into the mat. Machetti pulled his hands free from Shelton, then got back up, and ran to the ropes, jumped up to the middle on, back-flipped off of it, and hit a Springboard Moonsualt.
Machetti walked over to the corner where London was working over Cade, then pulled Cade away and whipped him across the ring into the ropes. Machetti turned and nodded ot London and when Shelton came back, they launched him up into the air, and over the top rope. Shelton came crashing down and drove his face down into the top of the barricade, he looked like he was knocked out cold. "SHELTON BENJAMIN HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!"
London and Machetti were watching from the ring as the referee checked on Shelton, but suddenly Cade rushed at them from behind, but at the last second, Machetti grabbed Paul and dropped down, Cade went passed them, and Machetti and London quickly grabbed Cade's legs and flipped them over the top rope. Cade came crashing down to the floor, right next to Shelton. "LANCE CADE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!"
Machetti and Paul turned away from their eliminated opponents and glanced at each other, the match still wasn't over. These two friends would have to face of for one of them to win. Machetti smirked then rushed at Paul looking for a Clothesline. But London ducked, then swept Machetti's legs out from under him as he whipped his leg around for a Leg Sweep. London rushed forward and did a front flip, but Machetti rolled out of the way, causing Paul to smash into the mat.
Machetti shot back up to his feet and jumped up into the air and went for and Elbow Drop, but London rolled out of the way, causing Machetti to Elbow Drop the mat. Then at the same time both men kicked up and turned to face each other in a stand off. Machetti shot out his leg for a Super Kick, but London ducked it, dropped down and rolled under Machetti's leg.
Paul jumped back up, spun around and rushed at Machetti, but in one motion, Machetti jumped up into the air and spun around, catching London with a Crossbody. Machetti rolled off of Paul, then got up and jumped up onto the top rope, then back-flipped off looking for a Springboard Moonsault, but London got his knees up. Machetti rolled off of Paul and clutched his stomach, while London pulled himself up off of the mat with the ropes, then rushed to the corner and climbed up onto the top rope. London came off looking for a Shooting Star Press, the London Calling, but at the last second Machetti rolled out of the way, causing Paul to crash and burn.
Machetti got up and went to the ropes, then climbed out of the ring and onto the ring apron. But before he could do anything else, London pushed himself up off of the mat, and rushed at Machetti and drove his shoulder into his stomach. Machetti grabbed onto the top rope, desperately attempting to keep himself from falling of the ring apron. London jumped up off of the mat and into the air for a Spinning Hook Kick, but Machetti ducked down causing London's leg to swing over his head.
While Paul regained his balance, Machetti quickly slipped in between the top and middle rope and got back into the ring. London spun around and went for a Dropsault, but Machetti caught Paul's legs and slammed his back down to the mat. Machetti placed London's legs on either side of him, then shot him up over the top rope. But as he was going over London reached out with his legs, wrapped them around Machetti head and took both of them over the top and down to the floor with a Hurricurana.
Both Machetti and Paul hit the floor hard, the referees rushed over and tried to sort out who had hit the ground first, but that was when they noticed that London's right foot was still resting up on the ring apron. The rules stated that BOTH feet had to touch the floor… that meant… "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HERE IS YOUR WINNER… PAUL LONDON!"
Machetti sat up and glanced over at Paul, then broke out into a grin. Machetti fought back up to his feet, then pulled London back up with him. Machetti grabbed Paul's wrist and raised his arm up into the air in victory. The team of Paul London and Brian Kendrick had now been awarded a shot at the World Tag Team Titles. Paul and Machetti headed up the entrance ramp and to the back.

That's No Mercy. I figured I wouldn't interfere in Triple H making history and competing three times. I can interfere plenty on Raw and stuff like that.
'Till Next Time…
Peace!
