Disclaimer: You've heard it before.
Heya! Welcome back to the Fanfic that Elix Skipper and Hernandez borrow moves from, don't believe me? Watch Bound for Glory and you'll see what I mean, the dive off the scaffold and the border toss over the top-rope? You saw it here first, and if it turns out that TNA wrestlers do read this then a review would be nice!
But seriously now cause I know you aren't here to read my lame attempts at humour, it's Final Resolution, it's the border brawl and it's for the NWA tag team titles, can Jason and AJ walk out with their titles? Or will LAX get back what they lost? Let us find out!
Cheers to Zadok for the review, much appreciated mate.
Here We Go!
Rebirth-Chapter Forty Seven-Final Resolution
"Helloooo?" Mara waved her hand in front of Jason's face, he finally snapped out of his daydream and looked up at her.
"You say something?" She sighed.
"You are so dense y'know that?"
"I kinda guessed that" he shrugged.
"Anyway as I trying to show you" she twisted her neck around a little. "See? Almost better."
"Doesn't that hurt?"
"A little, but I can take a little pain."
Jason smirked. "You're still not coming."
Mara sighed again. "Why not?"
"You're still hurt, and if you were there LAX would go after you."
"I'm not new to this Jason, I know a thing or two about being hurt."
"Well forgive me for being over-protective but it just ain't gonna happen" Jason replied, Mara looked like she wanted to keep arguing but gave up and glared at him.
"Fine, I'm off to bed, don't stay up too late."
"Wouldn't dream of it" he called after her then paused. "Did I just win an argument with her?" He asked himself then shrugged and began looking through the stack of DVD's he had with him, each one had what he considered his most brutal matches, he figured that watching them would help him focus on what he would do to Konnan, Homicide and Hernandez when he caught up with them. He glanced at each match he had, the one against Mike Awesome, his match with Shawn at the Royal Rumble, a hardcore match between him and Sabu and a particularly bloody match from Japan with him and Steve Corino, he chose the Rumble match first and watched as he and Shawn tore each other apart, just as it reached the good part his phone went off.
"Yeah?"
"Hey kid."
"AJ, what's up?"
"Just checking to see if you're still OK."
"As OK as ever AJ" he replied.
"Listen you want a ride to the arena tomorrow? I figured LAX might try and get us so we better go together."
"Up to you."
"OK, I'll come get ya an hour before the show alright?"
"No problem, later."
"Later kid."
Jason hung up and glanced back at the screen just in time to see him fly off the top-rope and drive Shawn through an announce table, he smirked to himself, LAX would get some of that and then some if he had his way.
"You were up all night weren't you?"
"Uh huh" replied Jason not looking up from the programme he was reading.
"So you think you can take LAX in a border brawl without any sleep?"
"Uh huh, hmmm, do I have a JAPW booking this month?"
"No."
"Better get on that, and I think I'll work full time as well."
"Do you even care about tonight?" Mara suddenly snapped, he glanced up at her in disbelief.
"Of course I care! I'm just trying to stay cool before everything blows up, trust me, Homicide, Hernandez and especially Konnan are gonna pay for what they did to you!"
"Just remember that you have a title to keep as well."
"Mara, I don't care about the belt, all I want to do is make sure LAX never even think about you again."
"So you don't care about the extra money that comes with the belt then?"
Jason paused. "OK, you got me there, but I just wanna keep it bottled up until I get LAX, then I can let it out."
"So long as you come out of it in one piece that's fine."
"You know me, idestructable, now we got some time to kill, feel like watching some movies? Or we could watch the DVD of when I laid out Danielson."
"Danielson."
"Good choice, I didn't feel like watching movies anyway."
He popped the DVD in and skipped through all the matches until he reached the part where Danielson was in the ring celebrating another title defense, he watched as he hit the ring himself with a mic and stared Danielson down to boo's from the ROH crowd, he smirked as he watched himself tear into the fans just for booing him because of who he was instead of his wrestling ability, he silently mouthed the line that really set them off.
"I do not hate Ring of Honor, I hate the Ring of Honor fans!"
After managing to make the fans boo him louder he turned his attention to Danielson and announced himself as a challenger for the ROH title, he then announced that he wouldn't take the shot until he'd beaten every single possible threat to the title and even said he'd remain undefeated in doing so. He finished up by claiming to be the next ROH champion then nailed Danielson with a superkick out of nowhere! He stood over Danielson with the belt while the fans booed and threw things at the ring.
"You're not making much of an effort to make them like you" commented Mara.
"Mara, if they'd rather cheer Danielson over me then there's not much hope is there?"
"True, so how did Shawn react to you knocking out the guy he trained?"
Jason grinned. "It's kinda funny, I beat up Kendrick, he tried to kill me. I beat up London, he tried to kill me, I take Danielsons head off, nothing, he couldn't give a damn."
"Has Jim told you who's first on the road to the title?"
"I'm facing Jimmy Jacobs at the next show, then on night two I got Whitmer."
"You weren't kidding when you said every threat where you?"
"Nope, from Austin, Roderick and Nigel right down to Pearce, Hagadorn and Generico."
"And you think you'll be undefeated for all that? There's a lot of big names on that list."
Jason shrugged. "Have you that little faith in me?"
"Well, considering you have trouble beating Jack Evans..."
"Beat him though, and for your in..." his phone rang. "Yeah? Right. Two minutes. Gotta go Mara."
Mara glanced up at him, the good mood he was starting to get into was gone again, now he just looked focused, he went to leave. "Jason..." He came back in and grabbed the tag title. "What about your wrestling gear?"
"It's not a wrestling match" replied Jason then he hugged her. "See ya later."
"Be careful, I want you back in one piece."
"You know me" he called back before leaving.
"That's what I'm afraid of" she muttered to herself before going to the window and watching him jump into AJ's car.
"I miss the others" muttered Sonjay as he laced up his boots. "At least when Jay had the title shot he had me and the kid to mess around with so he could relax."
"Relaxed or not Sonjay, you won't beat me" smirked Chris, jogging on the spot to warm up. "Jay couldn't, Williams and Matt couldn't, not even the kid could."
"Jason never went one-one-one with you remember? You beat him in an Ultimate X match."
"I could beat him, I've done it before, and if he were here I'd say..." Sonjay suddenly went back to lacing up his boots, Chris turned round. "Uhh, hey kid!"
Jason smirked and patted Chris on the shoulder. "One day we'll put that to the test OK Chris?"
"Sure, I'll make sure that you don't pay the ref to call a time limit draw next time I'm going to win though."
Jason nodded. "Sonjay."
"Yeah?"
"Get the stuff I asked for?"
Sonjay nodded. "Under the ring already."
Jason grinned. "Thanks man, tell your buddies in CZW that you wanna cash in that tag title shot, that should make us even. How much did ya get?"
"Three boxes, I was gonna gift wrap them but I didn't think you'd appreciate the gesture."
"Maybe if I was in a better mood, anyway I gotta go get ready, good luck for your match, may the best man win."
"I..." Chris cut Sonjay off with a slap to the back of the head.
"That's it? No funny comments?"
"Sorry guys, fun Jason's gone, it's just serious Jason until I get a hold of LAX."
With that he turned and left the room, Sonjay sighed.
"I miss fun Jason."
"Me too, wonder if serious Jason's killed him?"
"He already got intelligent Jason" laughed Sonjay, an image of Jason wearing graduate robes lying in a puddle of blood entered his head. "I watch way too much Simpsons."
Back at home Mara was nervous, she always got worried when Jason was in a match like this, and especially when she wasn't going to be there for him, she'd deny it if he ever asked, but the worry was always there. She decided to kill some time by doing what he did whenever he needed to, she headed into the spare room, or as Jason called it the 'wrestling room'. The teen had managed to get all of his wrestling stuff in there to join the DVD shelf, posters, scrapbooks, programmes and any other things, like an autographed Razer Ramon shirt, she wondered if he still liked it as much as he did when he got it, considering how Scott Hall was doing these days maybe not, she glanced up at an old poster on the wall.
"How did I know he was a Sunny fan?"
Looking at all the stuff he had made her wonder if his denseness was an act, he couldn't remember where he'd left his keys yet he knew the names of all four members of the Truth Commission? Hardly anyone she knew would have even heard of them, she pulled down an old scrapbook and opened it, the first picture she saw made her burst out laughing, it had been taken shortly after they got together and she'd managed to talk her brother into bringing her and Jason along on a tour of Japan so he could see what it was like, this was back when Chris could stand being in the same room as Jason. Chris was standing in front of the camera as Jason posed next to him in his Curry Man attire, even Chris found that funny, a more recent picture had Jason, Chris Sabin, Sonjay and Jay all standing round the X that was occasionally hung from the Ultimate X structure, how they'd managed to get hold of it was anyone's guess.
She looked through the book, stopping every time she managed to find a picture she liked, there was one of her and Jason celebrating a victory in a mixed tag match when he'd tripped when they'd gone to hug leading to a very awkward situation, another had Jason and Shawn's son Cameron laughing as the 'Showstopper' tried to wash toothpaste off his face, Shawn had wiped the grin of Jason's by saying that Cameron was obviously the brains of the outfit, she turned the page and stopped when she saw the picture, this one had been taken during there last trip to Japan with Sonjay and Chris, her and Jason were standing with their arms wrapped around each other grinning into the camera like little kids, right behind Jason was a sign in Japanese that read 'Never Alone'.
"How creepy is that?" She muttered to herself, if anything described her and Jason it was that, and to see it written on a sign right next to them, even if one couldn't understand it, was weird, but it was true, from day one in their careers they'd been in it together, and here she was sitting at home while Jason went into one of the toughest fights of his life? Making a mental note to thank Sonjay for taking the picture she stood up and left the room.
"You do know we're up next right?" Jason nodded to AJ's question. "So why ain't you getting ready?"
"I am ready" the teen replied gesturing to his clothes. "I ain't going out there to wrestle tonight, the only thing to do with wrestling is this belt and the moves I hit."
"Which is quite a lot."
Jason ignored AJ and turned back to the screen, Chris and Sonjay were still going at it, Sonjay was in control and went for the Hindu press but Chris avoided it, he charged but Sonjay caught him with a kick then went for the Sonjay cutter, in mid-move Chris countered so Sonjay was on his shoulders then he landed the cradle shock! He covered and once again managed to retain his title.
"Our turn" muttered AJ, Jason nodded and followed him, at the door he turned in the oppostie direction.
"Where ya going?" Called AJ.
"Got an idea, you can come too if ya want."
AJ looked puzzled but followed behind his tag partner, he quickly realised where they were headed and smiled.
"Nice, good plan."
LAX's music hit in the arena and Konnan led his boys out, the 'Latino Nation' was nowhere in sight, for now, as Dave Penzer began to introduce them, he got three word into his intro then Jason and AJ came charging out of the LAX entrance and jumped them from behind! The referee in the ring shrugged and called for the bell as the champions beat the challengers to the ground, Konnan tried to jump Jason but the teen took him down and began throwing punches with both fists at his head, he and AJ then took the tag title belts off and nailed Homicide and Hernandez with them! They tossed the belts to the ref and went to Konnan, Jason pulled him up and threw him into the metal gate on the LAX entrance, he pulled the gate open while AJ moved Konnan into position then slammed it shut on the LAX leaders head! He went to attack him again but Homicide and Hernandez returned to the fight.
The challengers began beating on Jason and AJ then whipped them towards the crowd barrier, it was reversed then Jason and AJ charged but were backdropped over to the ringside area, LAX followed and stomped them down, Homicide beating on Jason while Hernandez took it to AJ, Homicide whipped Jason towards the steel steps but the teen reversed it, he hit the steps hard but they didn't budge causing him to fly over them, Hernandez lifted AJ up to his shoulders and tried to run him into the ringpost but the 'Phenomenal One' slipped off and pushed him into it, he stayed standing but Jason and AJ dropped him with a double dropkick, Jason then went under the ring and brought the first weapon into play, a steel trashcan.
AJ pulled Homicide up and threw him towards Jason, the teen smashed him with the trashcan then turned and nailed Hernandez as well, he threw the trashcan into the ring and began pulling weapons out from under the ring and throwing them in, another trashcan, a fire extinguisher, a metal pole and a length of cable, AJ grabbed a couple of chairs and tossed them in as well, AJ threw Hernandez in the ring as Jason went to get Homicide, he started pulling him up but saw Konnan, now busted open, staggering towards the ring, he dropped Homicide and dived over the crowd barrier then began beating on Konnan some more, he hammered away on Konnan's cut and began ripping at it but Homicide jumped him and pulled him off, AJ continued to beat on Hernandez in the ring as Homicide took Jason into the crowd, he whipped the teen into a wall then knocked him down, Konnan grabbed a chair from under a fan and tossed it to him, Homicide measured Jason then smashed the chair over Jason's head! Jason went down and Homicide hit him again and again before dropping the chair onto him and heading back towards the ring.
AJ still had the advantage on Hernandez, he stomped the big man down then placed a trashcan lid over his face, he then hit the ropes and hit a jumping kneedrop to drive it into the big man's head! Homicide jumped in the ring and charged but AJ sidestepped and hit a dropkick to knock him down then picked up the trashcan lid and nailed him with it, Konnan had gone back to the LAX entrance and was now walking towards the ring with a trashcan full of more weapons, he jumped in the ring but AJ nailed him with the trashcan lid to put him down, he turned but Hernandez was up and ran through him with a huge clothesline. The big man emptied Konnan's trashcan and looked through the weapons, some leather straps, a cane, a hockey stick, a pizza cutter and a sheet of metal, he chose the sheet and waited for AJ to get up then smashed it over his head.
Jason was trying to get back in the ring but Homicide cut him off and beat him down on the outside, he threw the teen into the crowd barrier then picked him up and dropped him on it before returning to the ring, AJ got up in a corner and Hernandez whipped his partner into him then hit a splash of his own, Homicide then hit AJ with a trashcan lid to put him down, Jason came in but Homicide nailed him with it as well, he shouted an order to Homicide then catapulted the teen towards him, Hernandez caught him in a bearhug then turned that into a belly-to-belly suplex to put him down. AJ got up but Konnan came in and beat him down, he then whipped the 'Phenomenal One' and hit the rolling thunder lariat, he bailed while Homicide began choking AJ with the cable while Hernandez looked for something to use on Jason, he picked up the pizza cutter and smirked before turning to the teen, he pulled the bandage off the cut on the teen's forhead then raked the pizza cutter across it! Jason rolled around on the mat screaming in pain while Hernandez turned to AJ, Homicide snapmared the 'Phenomenal One' with the cable then the big man ran forward and kicked him in the face.
LAX went back to Jason and threw him into a corner, the teen was bleeding heavily from the cut and Hernandez began punching at it to open it up some more, he backed off and whipped Homicide towards Jason but the teen got his boot up, Homicide reeled away and Hernandez went for a splash but Jason moved, Hernandez hit the turnbucke while Jason dropkicked Homicide down, he turned back to the big man and took him down with a neckbreaker, Konnan got up on the apron but Jason cut him off and brought him in the hard way then grabbed the hockey stick and broke it over Konnan's back! Homicde took advantage of Jason's distraction and hit an exploder suplex to put the teen down, Konnan rolled back out as Homicide whipped Jason, he went for an elbow but Jason ducked, hit the ropes again, ducked a clothesline then dived over the ropes onto Konnan! Homicide was distracted allowing AJ to take him out with a springboard flying forearm! he grabbed the metal pole and used it to clothesline Hernandez then went to Homicide, he went for a whip into a corner but Homicide reversed it, he charged but AJ lifted him up and dropped him on the ropes leaving him hanging upside down, he noticed Jason coming back in then grabbed a chair and rested it against Homicide's face, Jason then ran forward and hit a hesitation dropkick to the chair!
AJ pulled a busted open Homicide out of the corner while Jason grabbed a trashcan, he set it up and AJ put Homicide on top of it while then teen went up top, he went to jump but Hernandez blindsided AJ knocking him into the ropes and causing Jason to fall onto the turnbuckle, the big man moved Homicide out of the way then went up and superplexed Jason onto the trashcan! He covered but AJ broke it up, he hit some punches then hit the ropes but Hernandez caught him with a powerslam, he grabbed the two straps and tossed one to Homicide, he began whipping AJ with the strap while Homicide ripped Jason's shirt and began laying it into him as well, he pulled the teen up and whipped him then gave him a shot to the ribs with the strap, he spun the teen round and gave him a quick tiger driver then joined Hernandez with AJ, he dropped down and held a chair over his own knees while Hernandez slammed AJ on it, AJ bounced up and Homicide dropped him with a huge chairshot, Konnan came back into the ring and used one of the straps to whip Jason before using it to tie one arm to the ropes, Homicide came over with the other leaving Jason helpless, they taunted the teen and took turns slapping him while Hernandez dropped the now bleeding AJ with a spinout powerbomb, he pulled AJ up to his knees and held him while Homicide grabbed the fire extinguisher,he measured AJ then smashed him round the back of the head with it! AJ dropped to the mat and Homicide covered but suddenly pulled AJ up at two.
Homicide taunted Jason before turning back to AJ and hitting some punches, AJ was out of it and didn't even try to defend himself, Konnan then whispered something to Homicide and they both smirked before Homicide went to his pockets and pulled out a fork! He walked towards Jason tossing it from hand to hand then went to dive it into his head but Jason got a low-blow! Hernandez ran forward and got one as well then Konnan tried put Jason used the ropes to pull himself up and kick him down, the teen tore at the straps and managed to pull himself free then went after LAX, he grabbed a chair and nailed Konnan in the back with it to send him out, Homicide turned and the teen gave him a huge shot to the head to put him down, Hernandez came over and Jason's first shot put him down to a knee, the teen then threw the chair at him and he caught it only for the teen to send it into his face with a shining wizard! LAX was down and Jason went to AJ, he tried to get his partner up but AJ was just out of it, he turned his attention to Homicide who was recovering on the outside and got ready to charge not seeing that he had a chair, he went to dive through the ropes but Homicide got the chair up! The teen landed in a heap and Homicide covered out there on the floor only for Jason to kick out.
Homicide beat Jason down for a bit then looked under the ring, he smirked then pulled out a table! He slid it into the ring then pulled out another, Hernandez set the one in the ring up in a corner while Homicide leant his up against the crowd barrier, he whipped Jason towards it but the teen countered it and hit an impaler out on the floor! In the ring Hernandez pulled a limp AJ to his feet and whipped him towards the table in the corner but the 'Phenomenal One' ran up it, backflipped over him and hit a reverse DDT! Jason tried to come in and help but Konnan ran round and nailed him in the back with the slapjack! He rolled into the ring and swung for AJ but he ducked and hit a brainbuster! Hernadez tried to jump him but AJ sidestepped and hit the Pele! The big man bounced back up and AJ charged but Hernandez grabbed him by the throat and hit the cracker jack through the table! He pulled AJ out of the wreckage and covered but Jason came in and broke it up, he took some shots then then slammed Hernandez as Homicide came back in, Jason sidestepped him and hit a reverse DDT then went up top, he went for a cross-body on Hernandez but the big man caught him, he then threw Jason up to his shoulders and sent him down to the mat with a powerbomb!
Instead of going for a pin Hernandez rolled out of the ring and grabbed the tag titles, he handed one to Homicide and they held them up before setting then up in the ring, Hernandez got Jason up on his shoulders while Homicide went up top, they went for an elevated bulldog but at the last second Jason countered into a victory roll! Hernandez kicked out at to and the kickout sent Jason into Homicide who dropped him with a cutter. They turned to AJ but hesuddenly nipped up and hit Homicide with a hurricanranna! Hernandez tried a clothesline but AJ ducked and hit a huge back-suplex, Homicide got up and AJ went for a suplex, Homicide tried to slip out but AJ held on and hit a neckbreaker! Both LAX members got up by the ropes and both AJ and Jason clotheslined them out, Konnan ran round to try and get them up as AJ waited in the ring, when they were all up he vaulted to the top-rope and came down on them with a shooting star press!
Jason rolled out to help his partner up then they threw Homicide and Hernandez back in, AJ went to get in as well but saw Jason looking under the ring again, he saw Jason, he saw the teen freeze then look upat him with a crazy smile on his face, the smile mixed in with the blood all over his face made him look pretty scary, he looked at him in confusion then smiled as well as Jason pulled out a ladder! They each grabbed an end and used it to kock down Konnan before heading for the ring only for Homicide to baseball slide the ladder into them, he rolled AJ in and brought the ladder in, he stomped AJ down then he and Hernandez grabbed the ladder, they charged AJ but he ducked and rolled to avoid it then Jason came off the top with a cross-body to the ladder that put them all down! The teen was winded so AJ grabbed the ladder, he nailed Homicide and Hernandez with it then used it on Konnan when he got up on the apron before setting it up in the corner, he whipped Homicide into it and kicked Hernandez back down, Jason went for a stinger splash and Homicide moved but the teen managed to springboard off the ladder and drop Homicide with a tornado DDT! They were both down then AJ hit a springboard 450 on Homicide! He covered but Hernandez broke it up, the threw AJ into a corner and turned his attention to Jason, he charged but the teen avoided him and hit a superkick that put them both down while Homicide hit a clothesline on AJ sent them both out.
Hernandez and Jason used the ropes to get up in opposite corners and the teen went for a stinger splash but Konnan jumped up on the apron and moved the big man out of the way, Jason hit the corner hard then Konnan came in and hit the facejam! Hernandez went to cover but Konnan stopped him, the LAX leaded then rolled out of the ring and pulled another table out from under it, he began setting it up while Homicide grabbed the steel steps, he charged AJ but the 'Phenomenal One' hit a drop toehold that sent him into them face-first! Konnan finished setting up the table then looked at Hernandez and called for him to border toss Jason through it again! The big man grabbed him and got him up but when he went to hit it AJ came in at the last second and pulled his partner down, Hernandez turned then they dropped him with the superkick and the Pele! AJ helped Jason up and pointed to the ladder in the corner, he moved Hernandez into position while Jason set up the ladder and began climbing, AJ held it steady as Jason reached the top, he went to jump but the 'Latino Nation' hit the ring, two of them climbed up after him while the others pulled AJ out to the floor and began beating him down, Jason kicked the guys on him down then stood up again, Hernandez was still down and he went to jump but saw the Nation beating down AJ, he looked from one to the other then sighed.
"Why does this always happen to me?" He muttered then dove off onto the 'Latino Nation'! He took them all out then crawled to his partner.
"You OK?"
"Ask me again when I remember why we're doing this."
Jason laughed then turned back to the ring. "Time for Sonjay's surprise."
AJ watched as Jason went under the ring and came out with three boxes, the teen opened the first one and smirked before reaching in and pulling out a light tube!
"You've lost it!"
Jason smirked again then threw the open box into the ring, he tossed AJ the light tube then grabbed another one, they measured Hernandez but two Nation members came in only to get nailed with the light tubes! Glass exploded everywhere as another Latino Nation member came in and got hit with a double brainbuster! Another followed but AJ got a kick then Jason hit a shining wizard! Another came in and got a high-low combo and the final member who actually got in the ring got the Pele and the superkick! The champions knocked all of the rest off the apron but Hernandez got up and hit a double clothesline, he threw AJ out while Jason got up in a corner, he charged but ran into Jason's foot, the teen came out looking for a clothesline but Hernandez lifted him upand spinebustered him onto the box of light tubes! Jason screamed and began thrashing around on the mat as broken glass cut into him while Hernandez measured AJ for the big man dive, he hit the ropes and dived out but AJ sprayed the fire extinguisher into his face! Hernandez landed hard and staggered around blinded allowing AJ to nail him in the face with the extinguisher! The 'Phenomenal One' went back to his partner to check on him.
"Any ideas?"
"Go get the other two boxes."
AJ brought them in as Jason got up, his back was pretty cut up and the ring was covered in broken glass, they opened the boxes and buched the light tubes up together, while they were doing this Homicide re-entered the ring and grabbed some light tubes, AJ and Jason turned to him and he dropped both of them with shots to the head! Konnan came in with the coat hanger wire and began choking AJ with it, Homicide looked from Jason to the stack of light tubes then smirked and began setting the teen up for da cop killa on the tubes! He got Jason into position but Mara came sprinting down to the ring! She grabbed a light tube and nailed Homicide in the head! He dropped Jason but didn't go down so she grabbed another and hit him again! This time he went down but before she could help Jason Konnan grabbed her, he spun her round to face him and screamed in her face before trying a punch but she ducked, he spun round and Jason was there to hit a superkick! He pulled Konnan up and went to powerbomb him but turned towards the table on the outside, AJ came over and they both got him up and powerbombed him over the top through the table! Mara rolled out to the apron to taunt him then saw Hernandez staggering around still blinded from the extinguisher, he walked in front of the table against the crowd barrier so she ran along the apron then dived off and used her body to drive them both through it!
In the ring Jason picked Homicide up and tossed him to AJ, the 'Phenomenal One' set him up and dropped him face-first on the pile of light tubes with the Styles Clash! He pulled Homicide up and gave him to Jason who hit the C-Bomb on what was left! They both went up top and AJ hit the spiral tap before rolling aside so Jason could hit the Showstealer Press! He covered and AJ added his weight to the pin as the referee counted the three!
Mara rolled back in the ring and ran to Jason, she helped him up to his knees and hugged him, she felt something on her hands and pulled them away to see blood, Jason noticed her staring and winced.
"Yeah, believe it or not falling back-first onto light tubes isn't a good idea" he smirked, she hugged him again then brought him and AJ their belts. "I thought we agreed that you wouldn't come here tonight?"
"You agreed, I didn't" she replied, he stared at her then smiled.
"I'm glad you did, thanks."
"It's what I do."
Jason nodded then looked at AJ, he was up on his feet but using the ropes for support, Jason smirked at him causing him to laugh.
"You look like a psycho kid."
"And you look concussed."
"I think I am" replied AJ before limping over and helping his partner to his feet, he held out his hand for a shake then patted him on the shoulder before they let Mara raise their arms as they held up the belts they rolled out of the ring and helped each other limp to the back, holding their belts up all the way.
Well, there it is, Jason and AJ retain in , if I do say so myself, one BRUTAL match, so what now? Will another team step up? Will Jason finally be able to take it easy? We'll have to wait and see.
A few notes before I go, After promising it for ages the Indy fic is almost ready, I'm picking it up just before the Danielson incident so we won't see Jason's short-lived team with Adam Pearce, his JAPW debut or the infamous Japan tour where Sonjay got no sleep. And for anyone who cares, the Truth Commission was a stable in the WWF back in 97, a little bit of trivia for ya. Anyway until next time.
Later!
