Universal Character Association: Week 1
The Titantron changes scenes to the backstage area where we see yet another armored soldier, colored maroon, running through the backstage area with a microphone. Slightly panting, he turned towards the camera as he continued to run down the backstage hallway.
"Hey, it's Simmons from the Red vs Blue series, and as you can see, I am currently sprinting down the hallways!" Simmons panted. "The reason why I'm sprinting is because I need to keep a fast pace if I am to catch up to the guy I want to interview! He can tend to disappear after a match, so I want to find him before he vanishes! Aha, there he is!"
The camera suddenly pans towards the right, where it shows Chaos walking down the hallway, the crowd booing at the sight of him. Simmons runs even faster until he catches up to him from behind.
"Chaos, I would like to have a moment of your time, please, it would be very beneficial for our viewers!" Simmons stated.
Chaos stopped in his tracks and a growl could be heard from the hedgehog before he turned around to face Simmons, a dark scowl on his face with a look that could kill.
"What do you want, vermin?" Chaos asked lowly.
"Chaos, a few moments ago, you just absolutely brutalized Shadow after you were the first man eliminated in the Hardcore Title match, costing him the match as well. The viewers want to know why you would do such a thing?"
"Really?" Chaos asked incredulously. "That's the stupid question you pulled me over to ask?!" Simmons flinched in fear at Chaos' anger. "Gah, the questions you stupid interviewers ask! I don't need to explain anything to you or those rats in the crowd, but you know what, I'll humor you with an answer. The reason why I destroyed Shadow out there was because of what he did to me! Thanks to that Sonic rip-off, I was the first one eliminated! FIRST ONE ELIMINATED! I am the God of Destruction, a being of pure dominance and power that is above all others! I should not be the first eliminated! But thanks to that faker, I was the first pinned in that match and made to look like a fool! Shadow tried to humiliate and embarrass me with what he did, and I refuse to let that stand! So I cracked his skull with a chair and sent him on a Ride to Hell! I made sure that he would be the next eliminated as punishment for daring to do what he did to me! I am a God! He is nothing but a cockroach, and now maybe he's learned to never try and make a fool of a god again and knows his place!"
"Wow, you are unbelievable Chaos..."
Chaos turned around to the source of the voice, and growled darkly at the visitor, who was none other than Hope the Hedgehog, staring dead straight into Chaos' eyes with his own narrowed eyes.
"Hope..." Chaos spoke dangerously. "What the hell do you want?"
"Just came to confront you about what you did, and I heard your reason for that attack." Hope replied unintimidated "And I seriously can't believe you right now. You screwed Shadow simply because you were the first one eliminated?! How unbelievable can you get! You can try to cover up by saying you were punishing him for doing you wrong, but the fact is that you are just a sore loser who couldn't stand the fact he was the first gone and had to screw over the guy who beat him fair and square!"
Chaos practically oozed anger at this point. "I'm warning you Hope, you better shut your mouth now or..."
"I'm not afraid of you Chaos." Hope interrupted strongly. "You and I go a long way back, to when we first debuted here, and you should know I don't fear you, so your threats don't scare me."
Chaos eyed Hope evilly. "Well why get in my business then, this has nothing to do with you right now."
"Oh yes it does." Hope countered. "You see, Shadow's a close friend of mine, probably the closest friend I've got here in UCA. Me and him go a good ways back, we went through a lot together as the infamous duo, D-Hedgeration X, even though me and him are very opposite. We even won a few Tag Titles together. Shadow is one of my best friends here in UCA, and after watching you take him out like that for a stupid reason, I'm not going to let it slide at all Chaos! You're going to have to answer to me now for what you've done!"
"Grrr, so you dare get in my way again, Hope?" Chaos seethed. "Fine, have it your way! Next week, you and me in the middle of the ring! I'm going to make you regret ever stepping into my path again, you meddlesome hedgehog!"
"You're on, Chaos." Hope nodded. "And it'll be you who'll regret do what you did to Shadow."
Chaos stared off against Hope for a few more seconds before turning around and leaving, leaving Hope to stare off at him with a determined look on his face.
The scene on the Titantron changes to once again Force's office, but this time, the Intercontinental Champion, Jason, in the office, standing in front of the desk with his title belt over his shoulder, a very irritated look on his face.
"Where is that blasted fox?" Jason asked himself irritably. "I get called up by him to meet in his office, and once I'm here, he's nowhere to be found! I swear, if he doesn't show up soon, I'll..."
"You'll what?" Jason turned around to see Scourge leaning against the door with a smirk. "You'll go into some self-pitying rant about how bad your stay in prison was?"
"Scourge, what are you doing here?" Jason growled angrily, not taking to kindly to those words.
"As fate would have it, I was called here by Force for something 'important.'" Scourge informed him, walking up to Jason. "But since you're here, I want to talk to you about something. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you say earlier that you were going to win the Royal Rumble?"
"That is exactly right." Jason narrowed his eyes. "It is my destiny. My rise and path of destruction will be realized when I win the Royal Rumble, and no one can stop me from achieving it!"
"Hah, you actually believe that?" Scourge laughed. "Fat chance of that happening! You will never win the Royal Rumble! No, the eventual winner is none other than the "King of the World" himself! I've won the match before, so I can obviously do it again, unlike you when this is your first Royal Rumble! I'm the smartest guy out of everybody in that match, and it'll be so easy to outsmart you and all of them and win the match! I'm better than you and everyone after all!"
"The only reason you won your first Rumble was because you hid like a coward and let another do the work for you." Jason growled. "If you had fought fairly, you wouldn't have won at all! You are nothing but a snake, and I crush snakes beneath the heel of my foot! I will destroy you like the 28 others in that Rumble."
"Is that so?" Scourge narrowed his eyes. "Why don't you prove it right now?"
"He can't because you are both wrong!" Bowser stated as he came onto the screen, surprising both of the hedgehogs. "Neither of you will win it, because this Royal Rumble belongs to me! Scourge, no matter how smart you are, you'll never figure out how to throw me over, while I can easily toss you out like a sack of papers! Jason, your dominance fails in comparison to mine, and that path of destruction will end once I lay you out with a Bowser Bomb or two! I'm a monster, I'm a giant, and it's all but guaranteed that I win!"
Scourge suddenly laughs his ass off when Bowser finished, earning Bowser's ire. "Oh that is just rich, too rich." Scourge says through the laughs. "You honestly think you're going to win the Royal Rumble simply because you're big?! Dude, big guys almost never win the Royal Rumble match! Hell, Andre the Giant never won it! The last time a big guy ever won the Rumble was Yokozuna in WWE in 1994! And that was like 18 years ago!"
"I concur, just because you have a great and heavy size advantage does not mean you will win." Jason strangely agreed. "Not one of the UCA's Royal Rumble winners in history have ever been a big man! You don't have a chance to win! I have more of a shot to win the Rumble then you, hell, even Scourge of all people has a better chance than you!"
Bowser's eye light up in anger. "Why you...!"
"Whoa, whoa, back it up people!" Force said as he entered the room. "Ease the tension here man, I'm not going to have a brawl going off in my office, thank you very much. So calm down all of you and save the aggression here."
"Why have you brought us all here, Force?" Jason asked.
"Yeah, you called me here as well, and I find these cockroaches here." Bowser stated. "What's going on?"
"Glad you asked, guys." Force replied with a smile. "Let's get straight to it. I'm going to be honest here, I don't like any of you very much personality and attitude wise, but I do acknowledge you are all very talented wrestlers with great places in the company! You all stated that you were going to win the Royal Rumble, and you all backed it up in the ring tonight against your opponents in impressive fashion! After seeing your matches and statements, as well as some mulling over, I've come to a decision! Next week, it will be Scourge vs Jason vs Bowser in a Triple Threat Match! The winner...will get the No. 30 spot in the Royal Rumble Match!"
"Are you serious?! Scourge exclaimed with a grin. "Yes! Now all I have to do is beat this whiny hybrid and the overrated turtle to give myself the biggest advantage ever!"
"Hmmm, the No. 30 spot..." Jason said slowly. "The chance for me to secure a great opportunity at achieving my destiny and rule over the UCA..."
"Heh, so I have to squash these two losers, no problem." Bowser smirked. "Once I get the No. 30 spot, nobody will stop me from winning!"
"Ah, but wait...there's a catch." Force suddenly said, interrupting the three. "See, if you win, you enter No. 30 in the Rumble, but...if you so happen as to be the one pinned or submitted in the Triple Threat..." A devilish grin emerged on Force. "Then you will have to start the Royal Rumble at No. 1!"
"WHAT?!" The three shouted at the same time.
"You can't be serious!" Scourge shouted.
"Oh I am, and it's official, whether you like that stipulation or not." Force said coolly. "There's everything to win in this match, yet everything to lose here. I suggest you prepare yourselves the best you can. You're all dismissed."
The three radically different wrestlers stared down each other before they all began to leave the room, but Force's hand suddenly shot out and grabbed Jason's preventing him from leaving.
"...except for you." Force stated as Jason turned back to him.
"What now?" Jason asked coldly.
"I thought I let you know something else." Force told him. "See, next week, in a preview of the Royal Rumble match, we're going to have ourselves a Six-Man Over-The-Top Rope Battle Royal!"
Jason scoffed at the announcement. "And what does that have to do with me?"
"What that has to do with you..." Force smirked. "...is that whoever wins that Battle Royal...gets a shot at your Intercontinental Title at Royal Reckoning!"
Jason's eyes widened to the fullest. "What?! I'll be defending my title on the same night I enter the Royal Rumble?!"
"Yeah, and it's final, so I suggest not getting pinned next week, or you'll have to start off the Royal Rumble freakin' tired, title or no title." Force chuckled.
Jason stared daggers of death at Force, but the Fox just smirked coolly and placed his hands in his pockets. Eventually, Jason turned around and left the office, Force watching him leave with the same smirk on his face.
"Two more huge matches announced for next week man!" Church called. "We're going to have a Triple Threat between Scourge, Jason, and Bowser to decide the No. 30 and No. 1 entrants in the Rumble, and an Over-The-Top Rope Battle Royal to decide the No. 1 Contender to the Intercontinental Championship for Royal Reckoning!"
"Sam hell, Jason is being screwed here!" Sarge stated. "Not only is he being forced to defend his title at Royal Reckoning, he could be forced to start the Royal Rumble at No. 1 after his defense! Not fair at all dammit!"
"That's how life crumbles at times!" Church retorted. "It wasn't fair for me when I got shot by Caboose, but that's how it happens sometimes! Jason has to take it like a man, and if he doesn't want to start at No. 1, all he has to do is win the match next week, or not get pinned at least. That simple!"
"Still not fair, dammit!" Sarge exclaimed.
("Playing the Saint" by Digital Summer)
Boos came down from the crowd as the music played, the stage gaining pink highlights and when the music picked up, Lightning came out onto the stage with her title belt over her shoulder. She looked out to the crowd with a seemingly emotionless look on her before she took her title off her shoulder and raised it among the sea of boos and walked down the ramp with her raised title above her. She then slid into the ring and stood in the center of the ring, raising her title above her head as she stared out at the crowd.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Bodhum, Cocoon, weighing in at 145 lbs., she is the UCA Women's Champion, Lightning Farron!"
"The Women's Champion is in action right now, and she has been the hottest female in UCA right now!" Church said. "Debuting a little over a year ago, she has made a huge impact and beaten some of the top names in the female division here! She topped it off by becoming Women's Champion and has held onto that title for about four months now!"
"She's just as her name implies, like lightning she destroys all in her path!" Sarge screams. "No woman can ever hope to match Lightning! She is the future of women's wrestling here in UCA, a woman favored by the Reds!"
"She certainly is very impressive and a very talented woman, but she can definitely be a bitch!" Church stated. "Let's see if she can keep her momentum going with a win tonight!"
("My Sweet Passion" by Nikki Gregoroff)
The crowd cheered as the music played and Amy Rose came out moments later with her Piko Piko Hammer and smile on her face. She raised her hammer in the air, and pink pyro went off around her before she made her way down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans along the way before entering the ring and raising her hammer into the air.
"And introducing next, from the Little Planet, weighing at 127 lbs., Amy Rose!"
"Amy Rose is one of our premiere female veterans in UCA!" Church stated. "Debuting here in 1995, she is a three-time Women's Champion, and is one of the more respected female competitors we have! Her rivalries with Rouge and Sally Acorn are among the best the division has had!"
"Yeah, but guess what, her time is up!" Sarge said. "She had her time in the spotlight, and now she's washed-up! It's time for her step aside and make room for the future! The future known as Lightning!"
"Hey, don't be an ass!" Church replied. "Amy's still got something in the tank, and she thinks so as well! If Lightning wants Amy to step aside, she's going to have to make her by defeating her tonight!"
Amy placed her hammer outside the ring while Lightning gave her belt to ringside and the ref rang the bell. The two met in the middle of the ring in a lockup, where Lightning placed Amy in a side headlock. Amy gritted her teeth in the hold before backing her and Lightning up the ropes and bounced of them, pushing Lightning off of her and to the opposite ropes. Lightning bounced off of them and hit Amy with a standing shoulder block, knocking her down onto her back to boos. She then bounced off the ropes again, but Amy turned over on her stomach and Lightning leapt over her. When Lightning came back, Amy shot up and suddenly arm dragged her! The crowd cheering, Lightning swiftly got up only to be arm dragged again! Lightning got up only to be dropkicked in the chest by Amy!
"Amy has got the Champ reeling here in the early part of the match!" Church said.
"Ah, she's just getting lucky is all!" Sarge stated.
Lightning rolled over to a corner and looked at Amy in surprise, while the pink hedgehog just smirked confidently. Lightning narrowed her eyes and got back up and once again met Amy in a lock up, and soon enough, she began to push Amy into a corner, and when she did, she let go and began unloading several punches to her face before whipping her into the opposite corner and following her in. When Amy reached the corner, she grabbed the ropes and pushed herself up in the air with them, letting Lightning running underneath her and landing behind her. Lightning stopped before hitting the corner, but was dropkicked in the back by Amy, crashing right into the corner before being hit with a Back Suplex!
"Damn, Amy is all over the Women's Champ right now!" Church called.
Amy covers the champ!
1...
2...
Kick out!
"As if that could keep Lightning down for a three!" Sarge stated.
Amy picked Lightning and nailed a Sit-Out Facebuster on her, Lightning shooting to her knees as she held her face in pain! Amy picked her up and nailed a few forearms before whipping her into the ropes, and bending over for a Back Body Drop, but Lightning turned around as she came back and backflipped over Amy and landed behind her. Amy turned around and was hit with a Scoop Powerslam! Lightning covers! 1...2...Kick Out! Lightning frowns at Amy before picking her up and hits an Overhead Belly-to-Belly Suplex on Amy, and then following it up with a Reverse DDT! Lightning covers again! 1...2...Amy kicks out! Lightning stands up and lands a knee across Amy's chest!
"Lightning has got Amy in trouble right now!" Church said. "Lightning has a mean streak nearly as bad as Tex's, and Amy may feel the brunt of it!"
Lightning frowned down at the hedgehog before picking her and landing several forearms before whipping her into a corner. Lightning went to the opposite corner and revved herself up before running full speed and landing a hard dropkick on Amy in the corner! Amy slumped to the ground and Lightning covered her! 1...2...Kick out! Lightning went to pick up Amy, but the hedgehog nailed a few shots to the midsection, and then struck with a hard uppercut that staggered Lightning back a bit. Amy ran at Lightning, but Lightning lifted her up and landed a Flapjack across the top rope on Amy! The hedgehog staggered back from the ropes, holding her throat in pain, and Lightning leapt at the ropes and nailed a Springboard Dropkick to the hedgehog!
"Lightning is dominating right now!" Church stated.
"Ha, is anyone really surprised?" Sarge laughed. "Her hair is the color pink, which is a shade of red, which automatically makes her better!"
"But Amy is pink too." Church pointed out.
"Shut up, Blue!" Sarge replied.
Lightning hooks the leg!
1...
2...
Amy kicks out!
Lightning picked up Amy, but the hedgehog suddenly rolls her up in a Small Package!
"Amy has Lightning rolled up out of nowhere!" Church called.
1...
2...
Lightning kicks out in time!
"Whoo, so close." Sarge sighed in relief. "Amy nearly stole that victory."
Both scrambled to their feet and Amy rushed at Lightning, only to be kicked in the stomach! Doubling over in pain, Amy soon found herself being placed in the suplex position by Lightning and was lifted up off her feet. But suddenly, Amy twists herself in mid-air AND LANDS A BACKSTABBER ON LIGHTNING! The Champ fell to the ground, arching her back in pain when Amy leapt at the ropes and landed a Springboard Moonsault to cheers from the crowd.
"Dagnabbit, Lightning, don't let this wash-up get the better of you!" Sarge stated. "You're the champ, you're better than her!"
Amy pins Lightning off the Springboard!
1...
2...
Lightning kicks out before the three!
"Lightning shows why she's Champ by kicking out in time!" Church said.
Amy picks up Lightning and whips her into the ropes and bends over for a Back Body Drop again, but Lightning this time gets a Sunset Flip and rolls her up into a pin! 1...2...Kick out! Both get up to their feet, and Lightning jumped for a Spinning Heel Kick, but Amy ducked and the Champ crashed down to the ground! Amy then leapt at Lightning and got an Oklahoma Roll pin! 1...2...Lightning kicks out! Both get up to their feet again and Amy goes for a clothesline, but Lightning ducks, gets Amy in a wasitlock, and lands a HUGE German Suplex, landing in a pinning position!
1...
2...
Amy kicks out before the three!
"Damn, these two are going full throttle right now!" Church said. "The action is fast-paced right now!"
"But Lightning is faster than Amy because she's LIGHTNING!" Sarge screamed.
"I don't think that what's her name is meant to mean, Sarge." Church replied.
Amy held her neck as she got up and Lightning grabbed, looking to throw her out of the ring, but Amy reverses and throws her over the top rope! Lightning hangs on however and lands on the apron! Amy went to get Lightning, only to get a shoulder block through the ropes to the midsection. Amy bent over in pain, and Lightning leaps over the ropes...AND NAILS THE LIGHTNING FLASH (Slingshot DDT)!
"LIGHTNING FLASH ON AMY!" Church shouted. "Lightning got all of that DDT no doubt about it!"
Amy is laid out as Lightning turns her over for the cover!
1...
2...
AMY KICKS OUT AT 2.85!
"Sam hell, how did Amy kick out of that?!" Sarge exclaimed. "The Lightning Flash should've done it! Damn persistent hedgehog!"
Lightning grabbed Amy and whipped her into a corner and ran at her full speed! Amy lifts her foot and catches Lightning in the face, staggering her back. Amy leaps onto second turnbuckle and bounces off the ropes, landing a Springboard Crossbody on Lightning...BUT LIGHTNING ROLLS THROUGH AND GETS AMY IN A COVER!
1...
2...
AMY KICKS OUT AT 2.9!
"Damn, Lightning nearly stole that victory there with the roll-through!" Church stated. "Amy better be more careful!"
They get back to their feet and Lightning throws a clothesline at Amy, but she ducks it and grabs Lightning...PIKO PIKO COMBO (STO Backbreaker followed by Reverse STO)!
"THERE IT IS!" Church shouts. "AMY'S PATENTED PIKO PIKO COMBO! THAT COULD BE IT!"
Amy hooks the leg of Lightning!
1...
2...
LIGHTNING GETS THE SHOULDER UP AT 2.99!
"Sweet merciful hell, that was too close for comfort!" Sarge called out. "Lightning, do something out there! You're better than this!"
Amy got up and went to the apron and climbed up the nearest turnbuckle, looking to a high-flying move. However, when she reached the top, Lightning suddenly shot up form the ground and hit a hard right hand, stopping Amy in her tracks! She then climbed up the turnbuckle and stood on the top turnbuckle with Amy sitting on it...AND HITS A TOP ROPE FRANKENSTEINER!
"DAMN, LIGHTNING WITH ONE HELL OF A FRANKENSTEINER FROM THE TOP!" Church shouted.
"YES! NO WAY IN HELL IS THAT PINKIE SURVIVING THAT!" Sarge shouted.
Lightning quickly crawled over to the prone Amy and pinned her!
1...
2...
AMY WITH THE SHOULDER AT 2.99!
"Amy still has something in the tank, Sarge!" Church stated.
Lightning sighed in frustration as she frowned before picking her up, and placed her own head between Amy's leg and lifted her upside down to a chorus of boos, setting up for the Lightning Strikes (Kneeling Back-to-Belly Piledriver)! However, Amy suddenly began to squirm in her grip, and suddenly got out of it and rolled Lightning up! 1...2... LIGHTNING KICKS OUT AT 2.9! Lightning got to her feet, but Amy suddenly kicked her in the gut and grabbed her in a front facelock to cheers!
"Oh boy, Rose DDT coming up!" Church called.
"No anything but that!" Sarge shouted. "That'll put Lightning down for good!"
Amy was about to hit the Rose DDT (Evenflow DDT), but Lightning suddenly spins out of the hold and whips Amy into the corner. Lightning came after her, but Amy catches her with a kick to the gut. As Lightning bent over holding her stomach, Amy leapt onto the second turnbuckle and went for a Springboard Sunset Flip, but Lightning suddenly caught her in mid-air, holding her upside down behind her!
"Oh crap, Amy got caught, and look at the position she's in!" Church said.
Lightning carried Amy over to the center of the ring...
...AND HITS THE LIGHTNING STRIKES!
"LIGHTNING STRIKES!" Church shouts. "LIGHTNING STRIKES ON AMY!"
The crowd boos as Amy was laid out and Lightning hooks the leg!
"Amy Rose..."
1...
2...
3!
"You Just Got Sarge'd!" Sarge exclaimed.
("Playing the Saint" by Digital Summer)
The crowd boos as Lightning got off of Amy with the same stoic, emotionless expression on her face as she stared down at her defeated opponent. The ref handed Lightning her Women's Title belt and raised her hand in victory.
"Amy put up one hell of a fight against Lightning tonight." Church said. "But when Lightning caught Amy in mid-air, it was all she wrote for this match!"
"You got that right, Blue!" Sarge exclaimed. "Lightning just showed everybody why she's the Champ, and showed why Amy has got nothing on her! She is a proud Red after all!"
"I don't even want to know how you came to that conclusion." Church shook his head.
Lightning looked down at Amy Rose with her stoic expression before stepping over her and walking over to the turnbuckle, climbing up to the top of it and raised her title belt for all to see in the sea of boos before jumping off of it and walking off to the back.
"Regardless of how you feel about Lightning, there's no doubt that she's got skill!" Church stated. "You got to respect this chick for what she brings to the table!"
"Of course you have to respect her!" Sarge exclaimed. "She's the Women's Champion, she deserves the respect! And she's the future, whether these people like it or not! So they can suck it!"
"Peach had better be watching this, because Lightning will be no walk in the park when they fight for the Women's Title." Church said

So many great events have taken place during that match, and this year, thirty fictional wrestlers will once again duke it out for the chance to main event our biggest event of the year, Final Clash."
"There's no telling what the hell is going to happen at the Royal Rumble." Sarge stated. "Every year, something absolutely, positively crazy happens that takes us all by surprise. Even I, a proud Red, can't predict what will happen exactly."
"There truly is no telling, but as every year before it, it's likely that the Royal Rumble will make history." Church said. "It's just the matter of finding out who will be The One this year to headline Final Clash."
"And I guarantee it'll be a person absolutely favored by the Reds!" Sarge exclaimed.
("Johnny Cage's Theme" by LA Riots)
The crowd suddenly went into booing mode as the music played, and none other than Johnny Cage himself came out onto the stage with an arrogant smirk and swag. Cage looked out towards the crowd and just continued to smirk arrogantly as he slicked his hair back before throwing his hands forward Dolph-Ziggler style before walking down the ramp, acting as if the crowd was loving him before entering the ring and getting up on turnbuckle, acting even more arrogant.
"Oh no, not this dude." Church groaned. "It's Johnny Cage, dammit. This guy debuted here a few months ago, and he's been a damn pain in our sides ever since. This Hollywood reject continues to come out here and gloat every single day and it's so damn annoying!"
"He's not a reject, his movies are hot cakes in the box office!" Sarge retorted. "Hell, he even does his own stunts, no special effects! This man is so awesome, he's now a wrestler! He's the best!"
"He's not the best! He's a conceited douchebag is what he is!" Church stated. "If he somehow makes it big in this company, I may just go jump off a bridge! Ugh, crap, we're going to have hear from him right now!"
Johnny Cage grabbed himself a mic and looked out to the booing crowd smirked. "Thank you everyone for that warm reception!" The crowd just booed louder at that statement. "Now I know how much of a treat it is for you all to be in presence of the biggest Hollywood star of all time, who starred in films such as 'Massive Strike,' 'Citizen Cage,' and 'Ninja Mime'! It must be absolutely an honor for people as low as yourselves to be in the presence of such greatness! But now it's time to get to the matter at hand. See, I came into Fiction Wrestling to show you all that what you see from me in my movies isn't special effects, that I am the real deal! And I've done just that, I've proved to you all just how good I am, and that I can be just about anything I want to be! You know, since I'm better than all of you!But you know, some of you have been calling me a joke, comic relief, a fake, someone who's just a pain and can't be big in this business! Well, I'm Johnny Cage, and I'm going to prove all you wannabes wrong! I wracked my brain trying to find the best to take down all you lame-ass critics, and I figured it out! I'm going to show the world how great I am...by winning the Royal Rumble!"
"He can't be serious, can he?!" Church said in disbelief, the crowd chanting "Hell No! Hell No! Hell No!"
"Oh, he's serious, Blue!" Sarge stated. "And why is that so hard to believe?! Johnny Cage is for real, Johnny Cage is the bomb, unlike the overslacking Grif! I wish Johnny could give that Grif a Nut Punch!"
"If he wins the Royal Rumble, I will kill myself, I swear!" Church exclaimed.
"Oh yeah, it's true! You're looking at the winner of the Royal Rumble right here!" Johnny proclaimed. "And there's no better choice than me! I'm the next big thing in UCA! I'm the rising star of this company! Ain't nobody in that match that can hold a candle to the ability I possess! I'm going be throwing people left and right out of that ring, and you can damn sure bet on me breaking Jecht's record of 13 eliminations! I'm taking Scourge down! I'm taking Bowser down! I'm taking Jason down! I'm taking Senji out! I'm taking Crash out! I'm taking Fox out! And I'm taking you out..." He suddenly pointed to a pretty woman in the crowd, and smirked. "...to dinner."
"Ugh, someone shut this guy up, please." Church pleaded.
"Don't, this stuff is gold right here!" Sarge retorted.
"Heh, no one in the back can ever hope to stop me in that Rumble!" Johnny stated. "I'm bigger than all of them! There's not one person on this roster that's a bigger star than me! And what's more..."
("Trainer Red Theme" from Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver)
A thunderous ovation suddenly came from the crowd as everyone stood on their feet at the sound of the music! The crowd is wild with cheers...
...AS RED COMES OUT ONTO THE STAGE, THE CHEERS GETTING EVEN LOUDER!
"IT'S RED! THE POKEMON MASTER IS HERE!" Church shouted. "MADISON SQUARE HAS EXPLODED HERE! YOU CAN BARELY HEAR THE MUSIC!"
Red looked out towards the absolutely deafening crowd, surveying it with a close eye before smiling and tipping the hat on his head in the way only he can, covering his eyes before making his way down the ramp and towards the ring, an irked Johnny watching him the whole time.
"You want to talk about greatness, you're looking at one of the greatest of all time here!" Church stated. "Red is an eight-time World Champion, four-time Intercontinental Champion, three-time Tag Team Champion, former Cruiserweight Champion, three-time and first-ever Hardcore Champion in '98! He's the first man to win the Grand Slam in UCA, and he's the FIRST-EVER UCA Undisputed World Champion! And he's the only two-time winner of the UCA Royal Rumble! The Pokemon Master has done it all in UCA, he's the biggest star and draw we have!"
"I don't know what to think of this guy!" Sarge admitted "I mean, he wears the color red, his eyes are red, hell, he's named Red! I love all of that about him, but dammit he does things I just don't like at times! Like now, interrupting Cage during his glorious promo! That's not right at all for a Red!"
"Screw you Sarge, me and these fans are glad he's out here shutting Johnny up once and for all!" Church stated. "Johnny wants to talk about greatness, he's in the presence of the very face of UCA. Maybe now he'll learn a little something about humility."
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Johnny questioned angrily as Red made his way into the ring. "This is my time! This is my moment! You don't belong here, you old fossil! I'm the next generation of wrestlers, you don't hold a candle to my star power! Go back to 1996 when your games actually mattered! Just go..."
Johnny was stopped mid-sentence when Red suddenly moved past him, positioned himself back-to-back to Johnny, and hooked him up...
Red lifts Johnny over his shoulders...
POKE-FLOW (Sit-Out Over-The-Shoulder Facebuster/Chris Cash's Cash Flow)! POKE-FLOW ON JOHNNY CAGE!
"YES! THE POKE-FLOW!" Church cheered. "RED JUST NAILED HIS ICONIC FINISHER ON JOHNNY CAGE! RED JUST SHUT UP JOHNNY BIG TIME!"
"NO! WHY, RED, WHY?!" Sarge shouted.
The crowd practically exploded when Red hit his finisher, Johnny Cage bouncing off the mat into a sitting position with a blank look on his face before falling down to the ground motionless. Red took a knee as he looked down at the prone Johnny for a few seconds, the crowd chanting his name feverishly, an unreadable look on his face before turning his attention to the Final Clash sign hanging from the ceiling. Standing up to his feet, he pointed to the sign before looking out to the crowd and holding up three fingers in the air.
"Red is letting his actions speak louder than his words tonight, and it's pretty clear what he's stating here." Church said. "He's saying he's going to win the Royal Rumble for a record third time and headline Final Clash one more time!"
"D'oh, as much as I hate to admit it, especially after he ruined Johnny's night, he's one of the top favorites to win." Sarge admitted. "His record at the Rumble speaks for itself!
"Exactly Sarge, Red won in 2000 and 2006, lasting the longest in the Rumble at 65:33 in 2000!" Church stated. "He's looking for the trifecta this year, and every person in the Rumble will be watching out for him, because they know he can do it too!"
Red took his leave and exited the ring, leaving Johnny still laid out from the Poke-Flow. He walked up the ramp and stopped when he reached the stage, turning around to face the roaring fans. When he did, he tipped his hat, covering his eyes, and raised his fist in the air prompting the crowd to cheer even louder.
"Red arrived, Poke-Flowed, and left." Church stated. "The Pokemon Master makes an impact here tonight, and gains momentum heading into Royal Reckoning. Will Red be The One for the third time in his career? We'll have to wait for Royal Reckoning to find out."
"Hello everybody, it's Simmons again, your favorite red soldier." Simmons said as the Titantron showed the interview area. "Now Grif was originally supposed to do the interview here, but he was too much of a complete lazy-ass to even try to do it, so I'm filling in him for him here. And now, my guest at this time, the Women's Champion, Lightning!"
The crowd boos as Lightning is shown on the screen, her same stoic expression on her as she held her title over her shoulder with an air of pride about her.
"Lightning, you just came off an impressive victory over the veteran, Amy, tonight." Simmons stated. "And now you will be heading into a title defense against the No. 1 Contender Peach, who is very decorated female wrestler in Fiction Wrestling, and we don't know when this match will take place. And Peach took a few jabs at you earlier tonight. Anything you would like to say in response?"
"You know, ever since I first debuted here, ever since my first game came out, people have been criticizing me from the very start." Lightning stated. "Whether it was being a moody bitch, or being a simple rip-off, people ripped on me over and over! People said I couldn't live up to the Final Fantasy legacy, and that I would just fade away. Well, look at me now..." She lifted her title for all to see. "A year after my debut, and I'm the Women's Champion of UCA! I proved myself that I am just as good as Cloud, as Sephiroth, as Jecht, I proved that I may be better than them, I proved all those who talked me down wrong! To all those fans who were against me, who said such things about me, they can go fuck themselves for all I care because they have no idea what I've gone through in my life! They turned their backs on me the moment I came here, so screw them! Peach wants to call me moody, brooding, she can mock my name, but she is nothing more than some old relic who's trying to hang on to her glory days when she's just riding Mario's coattails now, while I'm charting my own course in UCA! Peach can't hang with me in that ring! Nobody can! I am the best female fiction wrestler today, and I will prove it to everybody soon enough! Nobody in UCA can defeat me for this title!"
"Nobody can defeat you?" Lightning looked forward and none other than Tifa Lockheart stood across from her. "I beg to differ, Lightning. Everyone loses at some point, and who knows, for you, it could happen sooner or later."
"What are you doing here, Tifa?" Lightning questioned. "I have nothing to do with you right now."
"Just wanted to set the record straight onto the few things, as hearing you run your mouth on the TV got pretty annoying soon enough." Tifa replied with a smirk. "See, I take offense to the fact that you just called yourself the best female fiction wrestler. I mean, how dare you, how dare you presume yourself to be on such a level when you have yet to truly test yourself here, truly define your career? Gwen Tennyson, Sailor Moon, Ino Yamanaka, Agent Tex, and especially Samus Aran all have the right to lay claim to such a title because of what they have been able to accomplish, while you haven't been here for more than a year and you have the arrogance to call yourself better than them? Unreal. I mean I've done more than you here. Sure you became Women's Champ in your first year here, but you haven't done anything to even be mentioned among their names, and for that matter, you haven't done anything to show yourself to be worthy of being a great and original Final Fantasy character. Face it, you're just a female Cloud."
Lightning's eyes went wide with rage as she got into Tifa's face. "Don't...you...dare...CALL ME THAT! I am not a female Cloud! I am Lightning, the Women's Champion! My game helped revive the popularity of the Final Fantasy series, I have been through more pain than you can possibly imagine, my skill outclasses that of more than half of the locker room, including you! You better watch your mouth Tifa, your time in UCA has passed, and if you dare push me any farther, you will regret it."
Tifa didn't flinch and stared just as hard back at Lightning. "I'm just telling you how it is, Lightning." She said. "Want to be the greatest? Want to show you're not a female Cloud? Prove it to me and everyone else."
"I don't need to prove anything to the likes of you or these fans." Lightning retorted.
"Then things will stay the same." Tifa stated. "And maybe I have been around for a long time, but I sure as hell got a lot left in my tank, and a lot to teach a disrespectful chick like you, so maybe it's YOU who shouldn't push me if you know what's good for you. Take my words to heart, Lightning, you might actually learn something from them.
Tifa then left the interview area, leaving a fuming Lightning alone with Simmons. "Tifa wants to say I'm not that good?" She said. "Well trust me, I will prove that outdated woman wrong, one way or another."
"Wow, glad I wasn't Simmons there." Church stated. "That situation was damn intense between those two woman. Tifa took exception to Lightning's words and put her in her place."
"How dare that Tifa interrupt the great Lightning!" Sarge exclaimed. "Lightning is the future, like shotguns are the future of the military! Tifa is just a thing of the past!"
"Hey, Tifa is a five-time Women's Champ in UCA, she's one of the pioneers of the division here!" Church stated. "If there's one person who knows what she is talking about, it's Tifa. Lightning may want to actually listen to what she was just told."
"D'oh, Lightning will prove how obsolete Tifa is soon enough!" Sarge proclaimed.
"Maybe, but that's for another time." Church stated. "Right now, it's time for our main event of the night, the last of our three title matches!"
"The following contest is your main event for the evening, and it is for the UCA Tag Team Championship!"
("Whatever" by Lady Peace)
The crowd cheered loudly as the music played, the stage gaining red highlights, as Knuckles came out on the stage with a very intense look on his face. He looked out to the crowd before bashing his fists together several times and raising a fist in the air before walking down the ramp with a purpose. He walked up the steel steps and entered the ring, raising his fist in the air for all.
"Introducing the challengers, first, from Angel Island, weighing in at 243 lbs., Knuckles the Echidna!"
"Knuckles has been looking forward to this match all night, and rightfully so!" Church stated. "Knuckles came within inches of winning the World Title last night, only for the Mushroom Kingdom to come in and screw him big time!"
"I appreciate the fact that Knuckles is the color red, I love it, but Knuckles should just admit that the better Red won!" Sarge exclaimed. "Super Mario pinned Knuckles last night, so Knuckles is obviously inferior to Mario. Why can't he accept that?!"
"Okay, you must be blind as hell, because Mario would've lost if the Mushroom Kingdom didn't help him!" Church exclaimed. "Knuckles is looking to get his hands on Mario after what was pulled, and this is definitely his chance to get some major payback!"
("Meant to Live" by Switchfoot)
The crowd continued their loud cheers as Tails came out onto the stage with a big smile on his face, giving out a big wave to them before doing a few warm up leaps. He then walked down the rampway, slapping and shaking hands with the fans before leaping up onto the apron and then leaped over the top rope. He high-fived Knuckles and then went over to a turnbuckle, climbed up a bit on it and raised both hands in the air.
"And introducing his partner, from Westside Island, weighing at 198 lbs., Miles 'Tails' Prower!"
"Tails also has a beef with the Mario Bros. and wants retribution tonight." Church stated. "Can't blame him when he got his brains scrambled with a vicious chair shot by Luigi that took him out of the game."
"Oh, boo hoo, Tails got hit with a chair, I'm gonna cry." Sarge mocked. "This is wrestling, not ballet, Tails shouldn't be complaining! Plus, Triple Threats are No DQ, so the fox should've been smart enough to know it would happen!"
"Luigi wasn't even a part of the damn match, Sarge!" Church shouted. "Luigi came in when Mario was in deep shit and took Tails out to save his brother! Bullshit if you ask me, but Tails and Knuckles can pay them back indefinitely! It may not be the World Title, but Tails and Knuckles are determined to take those Tag Titles if it means pissing off the Mario Bros.!"
("Holy Diver" by Killswitch Engage)
Thunderous boos sounded from the crowd drowning the music as Mario and Luigi suddenly came hopping onto stage and jumped into the air with their fists raised, red and green pyro suddenly going off in sync with them. When they landed, Mario and Luigi smirked smugly at the crowd and raised their fists in the air, their Tag Title around their waists and the World Title on Mario's shoulder. Mario and Luigi made their way down the ramp in a smug fashion before entering the ring, Luigi hanging off the ropes with a fist in the air whole Mario went onto the turnbuckle and raised his World Title and shouted "GREATEST CHAMPION EVER!"
"And now, representing the Mushroom Kingdom, from Brooklyn, New York now residing in Mushroom Kingdom, weighing in at a combined weight of 465 lbs., they are the reigning and defending Tag Team Champions of the World, the World Heavyweight Champion Super Mario and Luigi, the Mario Bros.!"
"This is the first time that the Mario Bros. will be defending the Tag Titles in two or three months." Church stated. "Thanks to them, the title and the Tag Division have completely suffered, being pushed out of the spotlight."
"Are you crazy, Blue? Mario and Luigi have done no such thing!" Sarge argued. "If anything, they have elevated the status of the Tag Titles. The fact that one half of the Champions is the World Champ brings it such prestige! You should be proud that such a legendary duo hold the titles!"
"Screw that, Sarge, those titles have been treated as props ever since those two won it!" Church exclaimed. "All the attention has been placed on Mario and his World Title, they don't really care about those titles, which is a complete disgrace considering all the great teams that have held the titles! I hope to God that Tails and Knuckles win tonight and get those titles off the Mario Bros.! Maybe then, the titles will mean something again!"
Mario and Luigi looked at their opponents across form them, who glared at brothers in return. Mario and Luigi just smirked as they unhooked their belts and raised them as if to gloat to Tails and Knuckles. The two then handed their belts to the ref who then raised them for all to see before handing them to the ring crew. It was decided that Mario and Tails would start the match, and the ref rang the bell.
"Here we go, the Mario Bros. and Tails and Knuckles for the Tag Team Championship!" Church said.
Mario and Tails slowly crept to the middle of the ring, raising their arms as they began to meet each other. Just when it looked like they were about to lock up, Mario suddenly backed off and tagged in his brother, the crowd booing loudly as Mario just smirked at Tails.
"Oh come on, Mario just backed off from Tails and tagged his brother from the start!" Church exclaimed. "Mario wants no part of Tails."
"You couldn't be more wrong, Blue!" Sarge stated. "The great red Mario is just being smart and messing with those anthros. No reason to fight them now!"
Tails frowned as Luigi entered and Mario got onto the apron. After shooting a glare at Mario, he turned his attention to Luigi and met him in a lock-up. Luigi grabbed Tails in a Side Headlock, and then took him down with a Snapmare Takedown. The crowd booed as Luigi kept the Side Headlock on Tails, but the fox suddenly wrapped his legs around his head and brought him down, forcing Luigi to break the hold. Luigi pushed himself out of the hold he was in and both got to their feet and Luigi rushed at Tails. The fox leapfrogged over the green brother, and when Luigi turned around, Tails took him down with a Snapmare Takedown of his own and held him in a headlock. Luigi quickly managed to get to his feet, Tails still holding him, and backed them into the ropes before pushing him to the opposite ropes. When Tails came back to him, however, the fox nailed a Spinning Heel Kick to the jaw, the crowd cheering as Luigi dropped to the mat and Tails pinned him! 1...Kick out!
"Tails just dropped Luigi with that Spinning Heel Kick!" Church called. "And damn was it as hard as hell!"
Tails picked up Luigi and whipped him into the corner before tagging in Knuckles, and rushed at Luigi. He jumped at the green plumber, landing on him and hitting a Monkey Flip, Luigi crashing down to the mat on his back, and Knuckles stood on the second turnbuckle and landed a Diving Body Splash! Cover! 1...2...Kick out! Knuckles picked up Luigi and whipped him into the ropes, hitting him with a Back Body Drop when he came back, and then bouncing off the ropes and dropping a leg across the throat! Knuckles covers again! 1...2...Kick out! Knuckles picked Luigi, wrapped his arms around his waist, and hit a Bridging Northern Lights Suplex! 1...2...Luigi kicks out again!
"Luigi is trying to survive here as Knuckles is just hammering him with move after move!" Church called.
"Goddammit Luigi, do something!" Sarge exclaimed. "Your Mario's brother for God's sake!"
Knuckles picked Luigi back to his feet, but the plumber began to punch Knuckles in the gut, forcing him to let him go. Luigi nailed an uppercut and then backed up into the ropes and bounced off them, but Knuckles grabbed him and hanged him across the top rope. Luigi coughed as he held his throat, Knuckles tagging in Tails all the while. Knuckles grabbed Luigi from behind, lifted him up into the air, and Tails grabbed his head, and two simultaneously hit a Back Suplex and Neckbreaker! The crowd cheered as Luigi was laid out, Tails making the cover!

Luigi gets the shoulder up!
"D'oh, I can't believe Luigi is getting his ass beaten!" Sarge stated. "He's letting his amazing brother down right there!"
Luigi rolled onto his stomach as the ref checked on him, and Tails backed himself into the ropes. But when he did, Mario suddenly shot out from the apron and nailed him in the back of the head with a well-placed right hand without the ref looking, the crowd booing loudly as Tails staggered forward. Luigi suddenly shot up into the air, grabbed Tails' head, and landed a Jumping DDT!
"Dammit, that Mario just struck Tails behind the ref's back and Luigi took advantage!" Church cursed.
"Hey, that's SUPER Mario to you, dirty Blue!" Sarge shouted.
Luigi covered the downed Tails!

Tails manages to kick out in time!
Luigi dragged the prone Tails over to his corner and tagged his brother to deafening boos, and Mario smugly entered the ring. The two brothers jumped into the air and stomped onto Tails chest, causing the fox to sit up in pain, only for Mario and Luigi to give him double boots right to the face, knocking him back down onto the mat! Mario drops down for the pin. 1...2...Tails manages to kick out! Mario picks Tails up and whips him into the ropes, looking for a clothesline, but Tails ducked and bounced off the ropes. Mario, however, caught Tails and hit him with a huge Hip Toss, but held onto his arm and suddenly locked in a Cross Armbreaker!
"Crap, Cross Armbreaker out of nowhere!" Church exclaimed. "Mario's wrestling ability just came into play as he applied an Armbreak from a Hip Toss!"
Tails flailed around in the ring as Mario pulled back on his arm, looking as if to pull it out of his socket! Tails cried out in pain as he continued to flail his body in the ring, and raised his hand in the air as if though to tap, but suddenly the crowd began to clap and cheer, as well as Knuckles, trying to will Tails to fight through! Tails, hearing those cheers, decided to persevere and began inch himself closer and closer to the ropes, and every time he did, Mario just wrenched on the arm even farther, intensifying the pain. But Tails endured and reached out to the ropes, only fingertips away but not quite there. Mario thought he had him...but Tails suddenly uses his legs and wraps them around the rope!
"Ah crap, damn those legs for getting to the ropes!" Sarge stated. "Why does Tails even have those legs in the first place?"
"Oh I don't know Sarge, maybe SO HE CAN WALK!" Church shouted. "Idiot."
Mario kept the Cross Armbreaker applied until the count of four by the ref and let go, and looked at Tails visibly irritated. The fox held his arm in pain as he was picked up and given a SLAP TO THE FACE BY MARIO! Tails leaned against the ropes from the impact as Mario yelled at him "You are not on my level and never will be, you stupid fox!" Mario then grabbed Tails' arm and whipped him into the adjacent ropes, ready to hit a big move, but when Tails came back to him, the fox suddenly nails a Front Dropkick on the World Champ, knocking him down to the ground to a chorus of cheers!
"I think Mario may be regretting that slap to the face now!" Church shouted. "Tails just dropped him with a Front Dropkick in a snap!"
Both competitors were laid out across the ring as the ref began to count and soon enough both began to get to their feet. Tails was first up, rubbing the cheek that was slapped with a look of anger before turning to Mario, and nailing him with a clothesline with his good arm, and when Mario got up, nailed him with yet another one! Mario scrambled to his feet, only to get nailed in the jaw with a Back Heel Kick from Tails! Tails with the quick cover! 1...2...Mario kicks out in the nick of time! Tails sizes up Mario and when he gets to his feet, leaps at the ropes and springboards off them, looking for the Flying Chuck (Springboard Head Kick)! Mario suddenly ducks out of the way, and Tails crashes down to the ground!
"Aha, Mario's too smart for Tails!" Sarge exclaims. "Then again, who can be smarter than a proud Red like him?"
Tails groaned in pain as he stood, only for Mario to grab him and nail a Facebreaker Knee Smash! Tails stands up straight up completely knocked for a loop before Mario grabs him and HITS A HUGE RELEASE CAPTURE SUPLEX! Tails' body bounces off the mat and lies on his side before Mario goes over to him and covers him!

TAILS KICKS OUT AT 2.9!
"Damn, too close to call!" Church stated. "That mistake nearly cost Tails the match there!"
"Goddammit, I wish it had!" Sarge added.
Mario picked up the fox and dragged him over to his corner and tagged in Luigi. Mario grabbed Tails and lifted him up into the Backbreaker position extending a knee, while Luigi climbed the turnbuckle. The two brothers smirked before Luigi dived off and they nailed a Elbow Drop/Backbreaker combination on the fox! The crowd goes "Ooohh" as Tails flips out of Mario's grip and lands on his stomach motionless!
"Damn, Tails just got destroyed with that double team move!" Church exclaimed.
"Hah, yes, show those anthros you are the king of tag teams, Mario Bros.!" Sarge stated.
Luigi turns Tails over and covers him!
"Crap! Come on Tails, kick out!" Church urged.

TAILS GET THE SHOULDER UP AT 2.9!
"Dagnabbit, stay down you stupid fox!" Sarge demanded.
Luigi picks Tails up and nails a few forearm shots to the face before whipping him into the ropes and nailing him with a High Knee on the rebound! Luigi drops for the cover! 1...2...Tails kicks out again! Luigi once again grabs Tails, but the fox suddenly shoots up and nails a hard dropkick to the jaw of Luigi, dropping him to a chorus of cheers! Tails drapes an arm over Luigi! 1...2...Luigi gets the shoulder up in time! Tails breathed heavily as he slowly picked up Luigi, but the green plumber suddenly grabbed Tails in the suplex position and hooked a leg...GREEN LIGHTNING (Swinging Fisherman Neckbreaker)!
"GREEN LIGHTNING ON TAILS!" Church exclaimed. "Dammit, Mario and Luigi are going to retain! Shit!"
"Yes Blue, that's just the way of life, the Reds being superior to all!" Sarge stated.
Luigi hooks the leg of Tails!

TAILS KICKS OUT AT 2.99!
"WAIT, YES!" Church cheered. "TAIlS AND KNUCKLES ARE STILL IN THIS THING!"
"DAMMIT, STAY DOWN YOU STUPID ANIMALS!" Sarge shouted.
Luigi groaned in frustration as he looked down at the exhausted Tails. Deciding to finish it once and for all, Luigi picked up Tails and placed him in the suplex position and lifted him up into the air, looking to hit the Luigi Screwdriver (Vertical Suplex Twisted Into A Sit-Down Tombstone Piledriver), but Tails suddenly twisted himself and got out of Luigi's grip, landing behind him and pushing him away. Luigi turned around to get Tails...BUT THE FOX SUDDENLY NAILS HIM WITH THE FLYING CHUCK! THE CROWD CHEERS LOUDLY AS LUIGI DROPS!
"FLYING CHUCK!" Church shouted. "FLYING CHUCK ON LUIGI! TAILS HAS CREATED AN OPPORTUNITY HERE!"
"DAMN THAT FOX TO HELL!" Sarge exclaimed.
Both competitors were laid out and suddenly the crowd began to clap in rhythmic fashion as if to will Tails on, and the Luigi and Tails began to stir and they began crawling towards their corners. Knuckles and Mario held their hands out for the tag, hoping to get the tag that they needed. Both inched closer and closer to their partners, the crowd willing Tails on, and then Luigi and Tails tagged in Mario and Knuckles at the same time.
"Mario and Knuckles have been tagged in!" Church exclaimed. "Things are going to get real now!"
Mario and Knuckles immediately entered the ring and ran at one another, with Knuckles dropping Mario with a clothesline and then another! Mario got back up only to be pushed back into the ropes and whipped into the adjacent ones, and Knuckles hit him with a Snap Belly-to-Belly Suplex that caused the crowd to go wild as Knuckles screamed in intensity! Knuckles went to pick up Mario but the plumber hit a Facebreaker Knee Smash on the echidna that caused him to stagger back a bit and Mario rushed at him! Knuckles ducked the clothesline, and wrapped his arms around Mario's waist, and landed a HUGE GERMAN SUPLEX! Knuckles bring Mario back up and HITS A SECOND GERMAN SUPLEX! AND FINALLY KNUCKLES LANDS A THIRD GERMAN SUPLEX, BRIDGING IT INTO A PIN!
"The Triple Germans connect big time, and now Knuckles has Mario pinned!" Church stated.

MARIO KICKS OUT 2.99!
"Oh dear God, that was too close to bear!" Sarge stated. "Mario being pinned would've been a travesty!"
Mario held his neck in pain as Knuckles took a knee and looked out to the crowd, before making a slashing gesutre across his throat, the crowd going wild as a result. Knuckles dragged Mario to the middle of the ring before heading over to the turnbuckle and began climbing it!
"Knuckles is looking for the Echidna Headbutt!" Church shouts. "If he hits this, it's over!"
Knuckles crouched on the turnbuckle, preparing for the Echidna Headbutt (Diving Headbutt)...WHEN LUIGI LEAPS ONTO THE APRON AND THROWS HIM OFF! Knuckles crashes into the ring and Luigi enters, stomping away at the echidna to boos from the crowd.
"Yes, Luigi makes the save and now they're stomping away at that echidna!" Sarge cheered. "He doesn't deserve to wear the color red!"
Mario and Luigi picked Knuckles up and backed him into the ropes before whipping him to the opposite ones, but when he came back, Knuckles hit a Flying Clotehsline on both of them! The brothers drop to the ground as Luigi scramble back to his feet and goes after Knuckles, but the echidna and Luigi rushed straight into a Head Kick from Tails! The sound of the kick was heard all the way to the rafters as Luigi rolled towards the corner and stood up against it! Tails and Knuckles nodded to each other before Knuckles got on his hands and knees in front of Luigi, and Tails went to the opposite corner before the fox dashed forward, stepping across the back of Knuckles before leaping off it, nailing a Poetry in Motion on Luigi!
"Tails and Knuckles take a page out of the Hardyz' playbook and nail a picture perfect Poetry in Motion!" Church stated.
"Goddammit!" Sarge cursed.
Luigi stumbled out of the corner, only Tails to grab his head...
...AND HIT THE TAILS CYCLONE (Moonlight Drive)!
"TAILS CYCLONE!" Church shouts. "LUIGI GETS ALL OF TAILS' FINISHER! BYE BYE LUIGI, WE SURE WILL MISS YOU FOR THE REST OF THIS MATCH!"
Luigi rolled out of the ring from the impact as Knuckles leaned against the ropes and watched Luigi and Tails backed up and turned around...ONLY FOR MARIO TO HIT A SPINNING SPINEBUSTER ON HIM!
"Dammit, I forgot about Mario!" Church stated. "And that damn plumber just hit a Spinning Spinebuster!"
"Yes, that's the greatness of the red Mario at work!" Sarge exclaimed.
Tails arched his back in pain as he rolled to the side of the ring, and Knuckles finally realized what happened and rushed at Mario, only for the plumber to lift him onto his shoulders! The crowd boos as Mario looked to deliver his signature move, but Knuckles suddenly got out of the hold and landed in front of Mario AND NAILS A DDT TO CHEERS FROM THE CROWD!
"NO! THAT WASN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!" Sarge exclaimed.
"KNUCKLES HAS GOT MARIO REELING!" Church stated. "ONE PAIR OF TAG TITLES, COMING UP!"
Mario shot up in pain as his head bounced off the mat only for Knuckles to grab him and place him between his legs! The crowd absolutely popped as he went to wrap his arms around his waist...but he suddenly pushed Mario away! Knuckles rushes at the ropes...AND NAILS TOAD WHO LEAPT ONTO THE APRON HARD! TOAD GOES CRASHING DOWN TO THE GROUND!
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" Chruch exclaimed. "IT'S THAT DAMN TOAD! HE TRIED TO INTERFERE BUT GOT A KNUCKLE SANDWICH! CAN'T THESE DAMN MUSHROOM KINGDOM GUYS GO FOR A FAIR FIGHT?!"
Knuckles glared at the downed Toad on the outside and turned back around...ONLY TO BE LIFTED ONTO MARIO'S SHOULDER AND GET HIT WITH THE NINTENDOZER (Rolling Fireman's Carry Slam)!
"FUCK!" Church cursed. "MARIO HIT THE DAMN NINTENDOZER OFF THE DISTRACTION BY TOAD! YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!"
"YES! THANK YOU TOAD FOR COMING TO THE RESCUE!" Sarge cheered.
Mario stood up as Knuckles was laid out dragged him over to a corner, and the raised his hand in the air and shouted "It's Super Mario time!" He then went over to the turnbuckle and climbed to the top, and crouched on it, sizing up Knuckles.
"GODDAMMIT, MARIO IS LOOKING FOR THE SUPER MARIO SPLASH!" Church shouted. "THIS ISN'T RIGHT DAMMIT! KNUCKLES AND TAILS HAD THIS MATCH WON, BUT THANKS TO THE DAMN MUSHROOM KINGDOM, THEY'RE ABOUT TO BE SCREWED AGAIN!"
"THAT'S JUST HOW IT WORKS BLUE!" Sarge said joyfully. "MARIO'S A RED, AND REDS ALWAYS..."
("This Fire Burns" by Killswitch Engage)
The crowd stands on its feet at the sound of the music, popping like crazy as Mario turned his attention to the stage in absolute shock!
"WHAT?!" Church shouted. "SON OF A BITCH, COULD IT BE?! IS IT REALLY HIM?!"
"NO! ANYONE BUT HIM!" Sarge demanded. "HE'S GONE! MARIO ENDED HIS ASS! IT CAN'T BE!"
Mario was shaking his head in absolute denial, screaming "No! It can't be you! I ended you damn career! You are gone dammit!" He kept screaming similar thing as the music played...WHEN TAILS SUDDENLY LEAPED UP AND NAILED AN ENZIGURI TO MARIO'S HEAD!
"GODDAMN, TAILS JUST NAILED MARIO HARD!" Church shouted. "I FORGOT WE HAD A MATCH GOING ON! THIS COULD BE THE OPENING TAILS AND KNUCKLES NEED!"
Mario fell off the turnbuckle from the impact of the kick as the music stopped and stood up to his feet completely dazed before Knuckles shot up this feet and kicked him in the gut. Knuckles places him between his legs...Lifts him up on his shoulders...
DEEP IMPACT (Sit-Out Powerbomb)! THE CROWD EXPLODES!
"YES, THE DEEP IMPACT!" Church shouted. "KNUCKLES GOT ALL OF IT! PIN HIM, DAMMIT! PIN HIM!"
"NO! THIS ISN'T RIGHT!" Sarge shouted. "THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING!"
Tails rushed at ropes and nailed a dropkick at Toad on the outside, preventing him from entering the ring as Knuckles makes the cover!

"YES! TAILS AND KNUCKLES PULLED IT OFF!" Church shouted.
("Whatever" by Lady Peace)
"Here are you winners, and NEEEEEEWWW Tag Team Champions, Miles "Tails" Prower and Knuckles the Echidna!"
The crowd is going absolutely wild as Knuckles got off of Mario and raised his arms in the air, screaming in victory as Tails ran over to his friend and embraced him in joy. The two stood to their feet as the ref handed them the Tag Titles, and the two friends stared at the gold in joy and raised them in the air as the ref raised their hands in victory!
"WE GOT NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!" Church exclaimed. "AFTER MONTHS, THE TAG TITLES HAVE FINALLY BEEN WRENCHED FROM THOSE DAMN MARIO BROS.! TAILS AND KNUCKLES ENDED THE IRON GRIP THEY HAD ON THE TAG DIVISION!"
"THIS IS BULLSHIT!" Sarge screamed. "THIS ISN'T FAIR! MARIO WAS DISTRACTED BY THAT GODDAMN MUSIC! THIS IS A TRAVESHAMOCKERY! MARIO WAS SCREWED!"
"SHUT UP, SARGE, TAILS AND KNUCKLES WERE ABOUT TO BE SCREWED BY THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM BEFORE THAT!" Church shouted. "TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY, AND PAYBACK IS DEFINITELY A BITCH! WE GOT NEW TAG CHAMPS, FINALLY!"
Tails and Knuckles climbed the turnbuckles and raised their newly won titles high into the air as Luigi and Toad checked up on Mario as the ref gave him his World Title. Tails and Knuckles got off the turnbuckles and smirked at the fallen Mario before exiting the ring and getting on the ramp, raising their titles in victory. Mario sat up and glared angrily at the anthros along with Toad and Luigi, holding his World Title.
("Boom" by P.O.D.)
The cheers of the crowd continued as the music played and all eyes went to the stage as Force came out with a big smile on his face, a microphone in hand as he clapped in applause.
"It's Force the Fox, and he's clapping for the new Champs." Church stated. "But knowing him, that's not all he came out here for."
"He better be out here to rectify this wrong done to the great Mario, it's bullshit!" Sarge exclaimed.
"Ladies and gentlmen, give it up for the new Tag Team Champions!" Force stated, the crowd cheering loudly as Tails and Knuckles smiled at him. "What a great match guys, you really showed why UCA is a company to look out for! I'm proud to call you both my new Tag Champions! But that's not the reason I'm out for you see...now it's time to get to business, now it's time to do a little revealing. Now it's time...to show who will be the No. 1 Contender to Mario's World Title at Royal Reckoning!"
"Oh damn, I forgot about that!" Church stated. "With all the craziness and shit that happened tonight, it actually slipped my mind!"
"Of course it would, you're a stupid Blue!" Sarge replied. "But who's it going to be? Mario's beaten so many challengers."
Mario glared up at the fox on the ramp as he stood up in anger and shouting from the ring "Fine, who is it?! He'll be the unfortunate one to suffer for what happened to me!"
Force smirked devilishly. "Mario, you know this guy very well. Meet your new No. 1 Contender..." Several seconds passed by and...
("This Fire Burns" by Killswitch Engage)
The crowd once again blows up into cheers as Mario looked at the stage in shock as the one who comes out is none other than...
...SONIC THE HEDGEHOG!
"IT'S SONIC!" Church yells. "SONIC'S BACK! AFTER SIX MONTHS OF BEING INJURED AT THE HANDS OF MARIO, SONIC IS BACK IN UCA! SONIC IS GOING TO BE CHALLENGING MARIO AT ROYAL RECKONING!"
"NO! NO! NO!" Sarge chants in anger. "NOT THAT DAMN BLUE! NOT THAT ULTIMATE REPRESENTATION OF EVERYTHING HORRIBLY BLUE! HE SHOULD BE IN A RETIREMENT HOME! NOT CHALLENGING FOR MARIO'S WORLD TITLE! THIS IS NOT RIGHT DAMMIT!"
Sonic looks out to the crowd with his trademark grin plastered on his face as the crowd chanted "Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back!" Sonic turns to Force and shakes his hand before giving a thumbs up to the crowd, causing them to cheer louder. Tails and Knuckles are practically grinning from ear-to-ear, and Tails runs up the ramp and embraces his best friend, Sonic laughing and patting him on his head while Knuckles met up with them and gave Sonic a big high-five, the three friends reunited! Mario is practically livid in the ring, shouting obscenities at the scene before him as Toad and Luigi try to calm him down, Mario going absolutely crazy. Force just smirks at this and speaks again.
"That's right, Mario." Force chuckled. "It's going to be you and Sonic, one-on-one at Royal Reckoning for the World Title!" Mario glares at Force with an evil eye. "Oh, and one more thing Mario...your match with Sonic..."
"...will be LAST...MAN...STANDING!"
"HOLY SHIT!" Church shouts.
Mario goes wide-eyed at the announcement as the crowd goes absolutely bannanas. Sonic smirks and laughs heartedly with his friends before tapping his wrist and waving his finger, saying "Tick tock, Mario. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock." Mario just clutched his World Title close to his chest, glaring angrily at the ramp.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!" Church exclaims. "MARIO AND SONIC, LAST MAN STANDING AT ROYAL RECKONING! AND YOU HEARD THE HEDGEHOG, TIME'S RUNNING OUT FOR THE WORLD CHAMPION!"
"DAMMIT, FORCE HAS SCREWED OUR BELOVED CHAMPION!" Sarge shouted. "MARIO IS BEING DONE A TRAVESTY HERE! THIS IS WRONG!"
"MARIO HAS HAD THIS COMING TO HIM FOR A LONG TIME, SARGE!" Church replied. "IT'S ABOUT TIME HE GETS WHAT HE DESERVES! MAN, WHAT AN EPIC MATCH THAT WILL BE AT ROYAL RECKONING BETWEEN THOSE TWO!"
"What a crazy night it's been as well!" Church continued. "Shockers, title defenses, confrontations, proclamations, and title changes, all in one night! Who knows what's going to happen next week as we get closer to Royal Reckoning? Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Church and this is Sarge, signing out from Madison Square Garden! We'll see you all next week on Monday Night Flame! Good night, everbody!"
The show ends with the shot of Mario looking on in anger and a bit of worry at the ramp from the ring alongside Toad and Luigi, clutching his World Title tightly as Sonic stood on the ramp with his friends, tapping his wrist in a symbolic fashion with a grin on his face, with Force just looking on in satisfaction.

A/N: FINALLY! I've finally finished the first week of UCA, and I'm very proud with the end result of this chapter, especially the main event and the ending segment. It no doubt felt epic, don't you think so as well? I certainly hope I can keep up the momentum, and make UCA into a company that's just as good as Animated or PCUW. I would like to once again thank both toonwriter and WWE-PG-HATER for helping me out immensely with UCA. Seriously guys, you are just lifesavers.
Also, if you love UCA, and have any ideas for me concerning it, just PM me and let me know what you got. I take any and all ideas into consideration no doubt, I'm a guy that will listen. Just be sure not to be all over me or something concerning UCA, seriously, I like my space and being absolutely attacked like that isn't good for me or any author.
Anyways, thanks for reading guys, I really appreciate it. I hope you all enjoyed the very fist edition of UCA, and want to come back for more. Make sure to LEAVE A REVIEW, I would really like reviews if you don't mind.
Until next time, my friends.
