Here We Go!
Rebirth-Chapter Twenty Five-One More Chance
"C'mon... please?"
"No".
"Pleeeease?"
"No!"
"It's my money!"
"Our money, we have to save you know".
"Why?"
"One because we're not paid that much anyway and two because you never know when you could get a career-ending injury".
"What? Mara I'm only eighteen! I got a good fifteen to twenty years in me, maybe thirty if I take care of myself".
"The way you wrestle? You'll be lucky to get ten years out of your body".
"... Please?"
"NO!"
Jay walked over to Chris, Jason and Mara had been arguing since he had arrived at the arena, Chris was watching on in amusmant.
"What are they arguing about anyway?"
"Long story short. kid wants a PS3, girlfriend won't let him".
"Oh" muttered Jay turning back to the arguing teenagers. "At least he's in a good mood now".
"Pleeeeeeease?"
"Nope".
"Is that a yes?"
Mara just sighed and walked out the door, Jason smirked.
"We'll talk about it then" he called after her then turned to his fellow X Division wrestlers. "She'll crack".
"Whatever" said Chris sitting back in his chair. "I wouldn't hold my breath".
Before Jason could reply Sonjay burst into the room.
"You guys seen the card for tonight?"
"No, why? You been booked against Abyss again?"
"No, we've been put against Team Canada".
Chris laughed. "All four of us?"
"Uh huh".
Jason smirked. "Cool".
"Cool?"
"Yeah, too easy".
"Maybe to you..."
"Compared to what I went through on Sunday yeah, too easy".
Jay looked confused. "How hard did AJ hit you on Sunday?"
"Pretty hard, I started having these weird dreams".
"Like what?"
"Jay acting like Randy Savage".
"That really happened" said Chris.
"It did?"
"Yeah".
"What about Jerry saying that match was one of the best ever?"
"Yup".
"OK, Kim Possible being brought back for a fourth series?"
Chris gave him a look. "Yeah".
"OK, how about Nash doing a moonsault?"
Chris laughed. "That was a dream".
"Thank God" muttered Jason. "Anyway" he turned to Jay. "What is it with you and Savage?"
Jay shrugged. "The people like it, Sonjay gets a kick out of it and I think it's funny, what about you? You never inpersonated someone? And doing Shawn's moves doesn't count" he said as Jason opened his mouth.
"OK then, no".
"C'mon kid, I heard you used to do a pretty good Hogan impersonation back in the day".
"Two words Sonjay. Never. Again".
"Awww, c'mon kid, you do Hogan, Jay does Savage and we got the Mega Powers 2006! Tell me that's not gold!"
"You want an impersonation?"
"It'd be nice".
"Well Sonjay, you're gonna get one, cause I'm a stylin', profilin', limousine-ridin', jet-flyin', kiss-stealin', wheeler-dealin', son of a gun, who's kissed all the girls and made them cry, don't tell Mara, and remember, to be the man, you've got to beat the man! Woooooo!"
Sonjay and Jay just stared at him as though he'd grown an extra head, Chris laughed.
"Well he's got the basics down, but we're gonna have to work on the Woooo!"
"Sorry Chris, one time deal" replied Jason walking back to his bag.
"Yup" muttered Jay."AJ hit him pretty damn hard". Sonjay patted him on the back.
"Don't worry man, yours was better".
"Ooooo yeah!"
"SHUT UP!" Screamed Chris reaching for the nearest throwable object.
Meanwhile, in his office Jim Cornette sat opposite the X Division champion.
"You sure you're OK with this?"
"Yup, totally fine with it".
"But with that many challengers..."
"Jim, I'm fine with it, I'm just glad it's that kind of match rather than a match where I could lose without being pinned".
"OK, you got it, Bound for Glory, X Division title it's all there, good luck".
"Thanks" AJ stood up.
"And one more thing, you OK with facing Senshi tonight?"
"Compared with Sunday Jim, I think it's a day off".
Meanwhile JB had caught up with Jason and the guys.
"Jason, Chris, Jay, Sonjay, in a few minutes the four of you will team up against Team Canada, do you believe that you guys can defeat a team with so much unity?"
Chris took the mic. "JB, I'll keep it simple, the four of us are gonna go out there and pwn Team Canada like the newb I destroyed on the internet last night..."
"Hey!" Interupted Sonjay. "I was playing you last night!"
"And you got pwned!"
"Is that even a word?"
While the two were arguing Jason stepped forward. "JB, what Team Canada have to realise is this, the four of us, we're unique, I mean look at us" he pointed to Chris. "A super saiyan wannabe" Jay. "A guy who's channeling the spirit of Randy Savage..."
"Uhh kid? He's not dead".
"You sure?"
"Yeah".
"Sure?"
"Yup".
"Huh, anyway, super saiyan wannabe, unofficial 'Macho Man'... this guy" he gestured at Sonjay. "And of course me, 'The Showstealer'! The headline grabber! The future icon! The main event..."
"The Ron Stoppable of professional wrestling" muttered Sonjay.
"Fair enough, I like that show, anyway, Team Canada, get ready to get pwned..."
"You too?"
"... and there are only two things you can do, nothing and like it!"
With that Jason led the others away, JB shook his head and muttered. "Goofs" before sending it back to ringside.
Meanwhile in Team Canada's locker room...
"Oh great, we're gonna get pwned AND I'm gonna get fired!"
"SHUT UP ERIC!!"
Team Canada were already in the ring when Chris's music hit and he led the team out to the ring, Chris and Jason were both pumped and focused while Sonjay just seemed interested in trying to get Jay to act like Savage again, they jumped in the ring and faced off with the Canadian's, one by one they slipped out until Jason was left in the ring with Eric Young. The two circled each other then Jason went to lock up but Eric stopped and held out his hand, Jason hesitated then slowly extended his own but A1 suddenly jumped in the ring and nailed Jason from behind, he stomped Jason down then slapped a bewildered Eric on the back and told him he did a good job, Eric got out of the ring leaving A1 with the teen.
A1 stomped Jason down then picked him up and suplexed him then stomped him down some more and tagged Eric back in, he nervously walked over to Jason and stomped him once, when nothing happened he gained a little confidence then stomped Jason some more, he whipped Jason and hit a hiptoss followed by an elbow drop for a two-count. He whipped Jason again and went for a backdrop but Jason dropped down and punched him in the face, he reeled back to his corner and tagged in Bobby Roode as Jason got Chris in.
Roode charged Chris only to be quickly taken down with an armdrag and hit with a dropkick then grabbed him and hit a tiger suplex for a two-count, he tried a whip but Roode reversed it only to be taken down with a headscissor followed by a running enziguri, Roode staggered back to his corner and tagged Eric in again, he charged Chris but walked right into a dropkick to knock him down, he quickly grabbed Eric and went for a Cradle Shock but Petey Williams jumped in and broke it up, Jason came in to help Chris and things quickly broke down into a brawl, the X Division guys quickly cleared house and sent Team Canada to the outside where D'Amore berated them, the guys in the ring exchanged smirks then all dived over the ropes! They each crashed down on a Team Canada member then got up and high-fived before Chris threw Eric back in the ring and covered for a two-count, he pulled Eric back to his corner and tagged in Sonjay.
Sonjay jumped in the ring and quickly took Eric down with a DDT for a two-count, he lifted Eric up for a suplex but turned it into a jawbreaker across his shoulder then dropkicked him for a two-count, he rolled back to his corner and tagged Jason in. The teen jumped over the ropes then whipped Eric and hit a powerslam for a two-count, Eric retreated to a corner and Jason hit a few chops, he whipped Eric across the ring then caught him with a backdrop followed by a dropkick, he hit the ropes and landed a kneedrop for a two-count before doing a Flair-like strut back to his corner and tagging in Jay, he climbed to the top and waited for Eric to stand before coming down with a 'Macho Man' axe-handle! He covered but A1 broke up the pin. Jay quickly got Eric up and hit a snapmare before cartwheeling and hitting a dropkick to Eric's face for a two-count.
Jay pulled Eric up and hit a snap suplex then took him to a corner before tagging Chris in, the team leader posed for the crowd then ran forward and hit the hesitation dropkick! He ran back to his own corner and tagged Jasonas Eric dropped to the mat, he rolled to his knees and Jason was waiting to hit the shining wizard! He covered but Williams broke up the pin, the teen decked Williams then whipped Eric, he went for an elbow but Eric ducked and blind-tagged Roode, Jason knocked Eric down with a clothesline but Roode jumped him from behind. He stomped the teen down then picked him up and hit a neckbreaker for a two-count, Jason retreated to a corner and Roode charged but the teen sidestepped and he hit the corner hard, Jason hit some right hands then tried a whip, Roode reversed it but Jason flipped all the way over the turnbuckle and landed on the apron, he ran along it to another corner and climbed to the top-rope but Roode came along and threw him down.
"I think he's taking the Flair thing a little too far" said Jay, Chris and Sonjay gave him a look then went back to watching the match. Roode had tagged Williams in and the captain was stomping away on Jason, he pulled the teen up and hit a quick Russian legsweep then hit an elbow drop for a two-count, he whipped the teen into a corner and hit a clothesline before hanging the teen upside down, his team mates distracted the referee while Williams climbed up and stomped down hard on Jason's groin, singing 'O Canada' as he did! He dropped Jason with a DDT for a two-count then tagged in A1.
The big man of Team Canada came in and immediately overpowered Jason back into a corner, he opened up with right hands then pulled Jason out of the corner and lifted him up to his shoulders, he easily held the teen there then dropped him with a running powerslam, he covered but Jason kicked out, A1 quickly got him up and dropped him with a brainbuster for another two-count. He set Jason up for a pump-handle slam but Jason slipped out, the teen went for a reverse DDT but A1 escaped and threw Jason into a corner then dropped him with a powerbomb, he covered but Chris and Jay dived in and broke it up, A1 dragged the teen back to the Team Canada corner and tagged in Roode.
Roode waited for Jason to get up then quickly put him back down with a cutter for a two-count, he dragged Jason back to his feet and hit a big slam then climbed to the top-rope, he went for a kneedrop but Jason moved! Roode landed hard and limped over to his corner to tag Williams as Jason crawled towards his corner, he got to within arms reach but Williams stopped him and pulled him back to the middle of the ring. He stomped the teen down then whipped him towards a corner but Jason reversed it, he charged but ran into Williams boot, the Canadian climbed to the top-rope but Jason cut him off, the two fought it out and Jason went for a superplex but A1 held onto Williams, he fought out and grabbed Jason then took him down with a tornado DDT! He covered but Jason put his foot on the bottom-rope.
Williams looked frustrated and dragged Jason back to the Team Canada and tagged Eric in before slamming Jason, Eric then went up top and came down with an elbow! He covered but Sonjay broke it up, Eric picked Jason up and whipped him, he went for an elbow but Jason ducked, Eric quickly spun round as Jason came back only for the two to clash heads, they staggered for a few seconds, seemed to regain their bearings but then both fell flat on their faces!
"Definatley taking the Flair thing too far" said Jay as the two began crawling to their corners, Eric got A1 in but Jason made a desperation dive and tagged in Sonjay! He jumped straight to the top-rope as A1 charged and hit a flying hurricanranna! A1 bounced up and Sonjay quickly took him down with a neckbreaker for a two-count, he went for a whip but A1 reversed it only for Sonjay to jump to the top-rope and come down with a missile dropkick! He covered and got another two-count before whipping A1 into a corner, he charged but ate a boot, A1 tried a clothesline but Sonjay ducked then hit the Sonjay cutter! He backed off to go for the running shooting star press but Roode came in from behind and hit the Northern Lariat! He went to pull A1 into a cover but Sonjay's team mates came in kicking off a brawl, Chris hit Roode with a tornado DDT to make him roll to the outside while Jay dropped Williams with a reverse STO, he rolled to the outside next to Roode while D'Amore yelled at them, Eric had gone to the top-rope and dived off but Chris and Jay moved causing him to take out A1! Jay and Chris grabbed Eric and tossed him out on top of Williams, Roode and D'Amore leaving A1 alone!
Jason was up and began stomping his foot as A1 got up, he stared down Chris who just grinned and pointed behind him, A1 turned and Jason nailed him with a superkick! A1 spun round and staggered into Chris who lifted the big man up and dropped him with the cradle shock! The two grinned at each other then pointed to Jay who went up top and came down with a 'Macho Man' elbow! Sonjay was up and he finished it off with the running shooting star press! He covered as Jay, Jason and Chris all dog-piled on top of him and got the three-count!
The four guys all jumped up and high-fived in celebration as Sonjay's music hit, they went to pose for the crowd but the other three members of Team Canada came in, Roode took out both Jay and Sonjay and sent them to the outside while Eric did the same to Chris leaving Jason and Williams fighting it out in the ring, Williams took over and went for the Canadian Destroyer but Jason escaped and set him up for the C-Bomb! He walked around the ring but just as he went to hit it Maverick Matt ran into the ring and took him out with a superkick! Williams looked at Matt in confusion and the two exchanged words before both began stomping away on Jason, Chris was trying to get in to help but he and the others were being held back by Team Canada, suddenly AJ Styles came sprinting down to the ring, he paused for a second then took out Williams! He put himself between Matt and Jason and began brawling it out with the Maverick, Williams was up and he jumped AJ but Chris had managed to get in, he and AJ grabbed Matt and Williams then sent them to the outside. Chris and Mara went to Jason and tried to help him up as AJ looked on, his eyes met with Jason's and the teen gave him a confused look, AJ just shrugged as Cornette came out with a mic.
"Y'know it's times like this when I hate getting up in the morning, but someone's gotta at least try and keep order around here, now I was planning on making this announcement after AJ's match with Senshi but seeing as you're all out here I might as well do it now. In a few short weeks is TNA Bound for Glory, and Bound for Glory being what it is we need a big X Division title match, now AJ I've spoken with you now I just need to tell the others, Chris Sabin, I said I owed you one for winning the World X Cup, at Bound for Glory you get your payback cause you're getting a shot!"
Chris looked estatic, Jason patted him on the back and shook his hand, Cornette continued.
"Williams, I don't like you but you get the job done and seeing as Bound for Glory is being held just across the river from you I may as well put you in, so you're getting a shot! Matt, I admit to promising you a shot, I may have been doped up on cold medicine but I did promis it and considering your history in the match I have planned it's only fair that you get a shot too".
Jason looked around, the fans were chanting his name, he encouraged them to cheer louder and turned to Cornette hoping this was going in the direction he thought.
"And Jason, how could I forget about you kid? Now let's face it, you lost to AJ last week, but that match was one of the greatest that I have ever seen, and on that alone you deserve a shot so congratulations, you're in!"
Jason pumped his fist in delight, Chris returned the favour and shook his hand, Cornette wasn't finished.
"Now that sounds like a hell of a match, but seeing as it's Bound for Glory we need to up the anti a little bit, so we're gonna take that belt and hang it above the ring on a structure that you can only retrieve it from if you navigate the steel cables and pull it down".
The wrestlers in the ring stopped, was this what they thought it was?
"Bound for Glory, the five of you, X Division championship... Ultimate X!"
