(Backstage)
Greg is walking with the hardcore title around his shoulder with Rowley right behind him watching his back.
"It's so awesome how Christian let you win the Hardcore title. He must really like you." Rowley says
"He hates us Rowley. I don't even know why? We are all a part of the same stable and I was there before him. I don't even know why Souichi made him a General. I think I would've more suited for it. Plus, I'm nicer than him." Greg says when he hears a bell. Greg then slowly turns his head backwards with Rowley and sees AWE's Sheen Estevez on a purple bike with an Ultralord basket.
"It's time to ride boy's and time for me to become the hardcore champion then defend it 24 hours a days and 7 days a month." Sheen says
"I'm pretty sure it's defended every day." Greg says.
"Naw! I'm right." Sheen says. Then Sheen started to peddle his bike toward Greg but, Rowley got in the way. Rowley grabbed the handlebars of Sheen's bike only for Sheen to punch Rowley in the face. Sheen hopped off his bike and threw Rowley straight into random boxes before turning around. When he turned around he had to duck Greg trying to hit with the hardcore title. This causes the title to fall out of Gregs hands and for Sheen to roll Greg up.

Sheen quickly releases Greg, takes the XCW hardcore title and runs back toward his bike. Greg tries to chase after him only for Sheen to pick his bike up and smash it over the head of Greg, knocking the kid out. Sheen smiled and walked away. But, once he turned the corner he walked straight into multicompany superstar Ben Tennyson and his TCW Tag partner Dante.
"Um, hi guys." Says Sheen with a sheepish grin
"This will end one of two ways. One, I kick your ass right now and take that title. Or Two…" Way all Dante could say before Ben interrupts
"I, the Best in the Universe, CCW Magnus champion and future World champions in every other company I'm in will pin you and become XCW Hardcore champion." Ben says in an arrogant tone of voice
"That isn't the second way." Dante says
"Yes it is!" Ben says as Sheen looks on
"No it isn't" Says Dante
"YES IT IS!" Ben some losing some temper.
"NO IT ISN'T" Dante yells louder. Sheen then tries to sneak away but, Dante catches him by the throat. "You're not going anywhere."
"This is why I'm the champion." Says Ben
"Not after El Blaze beats you!" Says Dante as Sheen was starting to turn a different color
"El Blaze will never beat me! I'm the best in the Universe and the future Toon World champion!" Screams Ben
"Guys… I'm losing ….. Breath." Sheen manages to say
"Itatchi will beat you tonight like El Blaze will at Meltdown." Dante says
"No he won't. I am superior to Itatchi in every way possible." Says Ben
"Oh really then prove it." Dante says before, releasing Sheen of his grip. Ben then kicked Sheen upside the head really harf straight back into the grip of Dante and hit's a chokeslam.
"And that kick was just 1/1000 of the pain that will be inflicted on Itatchi tonight and the pain that will be inflicted on El Blaze later." Ben says before walking past a grinning Dante. Kenny came up from out of nowhere and sprayed Dante in the eyes with pepper spray before pinning Sheen. Dante hold on to his eyes in pain as the ref runs past him and starts to count

"Your winner and new XCW Hardcore champion Kenny" Says the ref
(Back to the arena)
(Burned plays)
"The following is a semi-Final match in the Best of the best tournament. First representing AWE, He is Slade!" Says Perch (75/20)
"Slade has been on fire tonight with great victories over big stars Spongebob and Diego." Says Jay
"Whoever counted him out was really stupid." Says Iroh
(Becoming the Bull by Artyu plays)
"And his opponent representing CCW, he is Dan Kuso!" Says Perch (35/50)
"Look at Slade's popularity arguing with the fans of Dan Kuso." Says Jay
"The fans are letting their voices be heard tonight. I think Squilliam and this crowd will be very happy if Slade wins this entire thing." Says Iroh
"He has to get past Dan though and Dan can take a beating." Says Jay
"But can he take a beating from Slade?" Says Iroh
"It's not how you survive against Slade. It's IF you survive." Says Jay
The bell rings, and Dan Kuso slings himself across the ring and starts pounding away at his bigger opponent! The fists are flying, catching Slade in the chest, the abdomen, the jaw, and the fans in New York are rocking with boos yet cheers at the same time! Slade is doing his best to cover up, but the fists are just landing wherever they find an opening! Suddenly, Dan stops the punching as the strategy wasn't effective. He runs against the ropes beside him, comes back and SHOULDER TACKLE!
But it doesn't even take Slade off his feet!
"Uh oh. Dan better think of something new." Says Jay
Slade looks down on Dan with a snarl, the fans gasping in shock as Dan shrugs off that Shoulder tackle! Dan looks stunned for a moment, but he races towards the ropes again, springing back towards Slade, and... BIG BOOT! Slade RATTLES the skull of Dan Kuso, who collapses to the canvas with glazed, wide eyes! Slade brushes his cheek with the back of his wrist, brushing off the damage as if it were nothing! Looking down on Dan, he grabs him by the head and drags him up to his feet, pushing him back in to the turnbuckle. Pressing his body weight against him, Slade then Irish whips the CCW Universial champion across the ring, and Dan collides chest-first with the pads! He slumps to the canvas, with his hands against his chest as he coughs and splatters from the impact! Slade looks back across the ring at his prey, smirking as he watches the damage he's caused! Dan stands himself up, looking back across the ring as Slade steps closer. Dan thrusts his head straight into the gut of Slade! Slade winces, backing up for a moment, giving Dan just another second to catch his breathe! He stands straight, stepping closer to Slade, preparing to cement his advantage... BUT HE WALKS IN TO AN UPPERCUT!
"Holy crap!" Jay yells
"That must've knocked a tooth out." Iroh says
The slap echoes across the first few rows of Madison Square Garden, the fans "OHHH!"ing at the impact! Dan falls away, losing his footing slightly! But still he fires back, another shot across the jaw of Dan much to the shock of MSG! "The AWE Champion" steps backwards a little, charging forward for a Clothesline attempt... BUT Dan ducks! Dan darts under the Clothesline, leaving Slade to only collide with the pads! Dan turns and waits as Slade turns back to the center of the ring... Dan fires a kick to the mid-section, pulling Slade head under his arm, hooking a leg and...
"can he... can he hoist him up?!" Jay questions a little skeptical
Dan is trying his best to hoist him up for this Fisherman Suplex, but Slade is just too heavy! Dan has to step away, placing a hand on his strained back! Slade smirks as he watches Dan step away in pain! The CCW Rep still continues to fight though, stepping back towards his opponent... ANOTHER UPPERCUT BY SLADE!
"Slade maybe too much for the fighting spirit." Says Iroh
Dan Kuso just can't seem to find the momentum to really get his foot in the door, as Slade steps towards Dan who'd spun one eighty degrees from that uppercut, ducks under his arm, wraps his right arm around Dan's body and hoists him up! SIDEWALK SLAM! Kuso lands hard, and Slade makes his first cover of the match!
ONE!
...
TWO!
...
Kick-out! Kuso throws a shoulder up, and Slade is quick to grab him by the head and pull him up, too. Throwing him towards the ropes, Dan sails over... but he grabs a hold of the ropes and lands on the apron! Slade had turned, assuming his successes, but there's no firm splat of skin on floor. Slade turns, see's the CCW rep on the apron. Slade charges with a big boot only for Dan Kuso to pull the rope down and crotch Slade.
"This is Dan's chance to defeat this monster." Says Iroh
Slade catches his leg over the top rope, crying out in pain as he tries to pull himself free! Dan turns back, and clatters Slade with a right hand! The shot blows Slade back from the ropes, stumbling away as he covers his cheek with the back of his hand. Dan slips through the ropes and turns Slade around. Dan the hits the Sideburn much to crowds surprise. Some pop even though they support Slade. Dan doesn't waste any time as he drags Slade up and hooks both his arms. Pyrus Plant to Slade!
"No way!" Jay says not believing it as Dan pinned him.

Kick out! Dan doesn't mourn him kicking out of his finisher. He knows what could happen if wastes a chance. Dan tries to picks Slade up but, it's basically dead weight. But, when he does Slade surprises Dan with a hand across his throat. He lifts him up in the air as some look in awe as a lot more pop. He goes for the chokeslam only for Dan to counter it with a DDT. Dan manages to roll himself toward the ropes. Slade doesn't stay down for long and is up even before Dan. Slade runs at Dan and gives him a Big Boot that sends him over the ropes. The crowd looks in amazement as Slade bounces off the ropes farthest from Dan and dives over the ropes, Undertaker style. Only for Dan to move out of the way and watched as Slade lands on his head. The crowd cringes at that as Dan rolls him back into the ring.
"Slade may be hurt bad." Says Iroh
"Dan may've found his chance. But, then on the other hand, every time I say that Slade stops Dan." Says Jay
Slade wasn't moving as Dan lifts the dead weight up. PYRUS PLANT! He connected! He pins him.
"Is this it?" Questions Iroh

"Did he finally find a way to stop him." Says Jay

3 and the crowd despite their distaste for Dan earlier stands up and applaud the man.
"Here is your winner at 14:58 and advancing to the Finals, Dan Kuso!" Says Perch
"Dan did it. Earlier we questioned if would survive and not only did he survive the wrath of Slade. He beat him. He actually beat him and has earned his right to join both Eddy and Crash in the finals of the tournament." Says Jay
"Slade tried a high risk maneuver but failed and it cost him the win we all thought he had in the bag." Says Iroh
"Don't discredit Slade despite his mistake. He kicked out of the Pyrus Plant and stopped any momentum Dan had quickly. He could've been the winner but one mistake cost him." Says Jay
"Somewhere in the GM green room Squilliam is angry about coming so close with Slade winning a massive portion of this match only for Dan to catch a lucky break and win." Says Iroh
"Will the fighting spirit win Destiny? Or will Crash fulfill the underdog story? Or will Eddy prove why he's a World champion and why they're not? Who will win Gold in the Fort? Find out later tonight." Says
"But, Up next it's a dream match for the WWT X-Division championship: Timmy Turner defends against Aries Austin up next and we'll be replaced by Desiree of WWT and Sarah Watkins of PCUW." Says Iroh
"Catfight! I told PaRappa that my pool of pudding would come in handy." Says Jay
"Keep dreaming. Sarah's underage." Says Iroh
"If she's 16, she's legal in my book." Jay says making Iroh face palm
"We'll be back." Iroh says as Jay gives a nice grin
