Universal Character Association: Week 5
("Headstrong" by Trapt plays over the loudspeakers)
The crowd exploded into thunderous cheers as the music played, fireworks going off around the Titantron in spectacular fashion. The colors red, blue, and gold decorated the fireworks as they began going off in machine-gun fashion on the stage, before circling the Titantron, and then giving off one final blast of fireworks before the lights turned on. The crowd was going crazy as the camera went over them, the fans holding signs such as "Matt is Resurrected," "Chicago Screwjob," and "Tidus, New King of the Cruiserweights." The camera then went to ringside, where we see Church and Sarge at the announce table.
"Welcome everybody once more to UCA Monday Night Flame!" Church stated. "We are live from Mobotropilis, just 24 hours removed from the critically acclaimed PPV, Royal Reckoning! And last night, we were treated to amazing matches and complete shockers, capped off by Matt Ishida's shocking return AND Royal Rumble win!"
"That damn Digidestined entered the Rumble at just the #2 and actually WENT the whole damn distance!" Sarge stated. "He lasted over an hour and became the first person to win the UCA Rumble from #2! And that gives Matt a first-class ticket to the main event of Final Clash! I swear, I STILL can't believe it!"
"Matt will challenge for the UCA World Heavyweight Title at Final Clash, and later tonight, we will actually hear from the newly returned Digidestined, who promises to tell his story of what made him leave for so long and why he came back!" Church stated. "And THAT is something I am very much looking forward to. Can't wait to see what else the nights holds for us!"
("Holy Diver" by Killswitch Engage)
"And I WISH I could wait longer to see this..." Church said.
The crowd was absolutely DEAFENING with the boos as Mario came out, the World Title draped over his shoulder. His body was slightly wrapped up, obviously still recovering a bit from the Last Man Standing Match. Mario looked out to the crowd with a frown before smirking slightly, walking down the ramp. Mario entered the ring and climbed up a corner, raising his title high and shouting "GREATEST CHAMPION EVER!" earning even louder boos from the audience.
"Ladies and gentleman, please welcome the UCA World Heavyweight Champion, Super Mario!"
"YES! The show is getting started off the right way: with Super Mario gracing up with his presence! The man who is STILL the World Champion!" Sarge stated. "That's right, Mario defeated his rival Sonic last night in the Last Man Standing, and proved that he is indeed the Greatest Champion Ever!"
"Um, Sarge, you are leaving out ONE crucial detail..." Church stated. "BOWSER SAVED MARIO'S ASS! Yeah, for some inexplicable reason, Bowser came in and attacked Sonic, leaving him easy pickings for Mario! Hell, if it wasn't for Bowser, we'd have a new World Heavyweight Champion right now!"
"Details, details, dirty Blue, like they matter." Sarge waved off. "All that matters is that Mario is still World Champ, and the Reds won! SO SUCK IT BLUE!"
Mario grabbed himself a mic and stood in the middle of the ring, soaking in all the hatred as the crowd chanted "YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!" before speaking.
"Well...well...well..." Mario began, drawing out each "Well" in a slow manner. "Look where we are now people...look where we are now. For the weeks leading up to Royal Reckoning, all I heard from the fans and wrestlers in the back was that 'Time was running out.' That my time as World Heavyweight Champion was finally going to end after a year on top. After all, everything seemed set up for me to finally lose in the end. I was facing my long-time rival Sonic, who had returned and was seeking vengeance! It was Last Man Standing, a match perfectly suited for Sonic's anger and desire to put me down, and the Mushroom Kingdom was banned from ringside, banned from interfering! Everyone and their grandmothers thought that me, Super Mario, was going to fall to Sonic, and that he would become the new World Heavyweight Champion! Every...single...damn...one of you believed that, believed that it was the freakin' truth! Well if that is the case...then where is Sonic? Where is the grand victory celebration? Where is he stating that time finally came up with me, and showed off his new World Title? Where is all of this that you all thought would happen? Oh, I know where it is...IT'S NOWHERE IN DAMN SIGHT! WHY?! BECAUSE I WON! I AM STILL WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, YOU SONS OF BITCHES!" The crowd booed viciously as Mario glared at all of them. "Oh, I would expect all of you damn furries to hate such a result, but in all honesty, when have ANY of you ever mattered in this pitfall of a city?!" The crowd booed even louder at the comment for cheap heat. "You can hate me all you want, you can hate the result, but the fact is YOU...WERE ALL...WRONG! Just like you've been wrong for the past damn year here in UCA! I have heard you all constantly proclaim time and again that I would lose this World Title, with Sonic being the latest guy you thought I would lose to! You thought everything was set up for my failure, but the stupid blue rodent couldn't get the job done! Despite his words, his proclamations, and all the support, I was the one who won and retained the World Title! And quite frankly, the result should've been obvious to you all! It was destined to happen from the beginning! And now I have reached day 365 of the longest UCA World Heavyweight Title reign in history! A full calendar year! That is something almost IMPOSSIBLE in today's wrestling world, but it is an achievement that only Super Mario could ever achieve! Now normally, this would call for a celebration...but quite frankly, NONE of you Sonic fanatics here even DESERVE to witness such a grand celebration! After all, you're all just piss poor dumb animals!" The crowd was in a near-state of riot as the hatred was at a fever pitch. "Besides, I don't need to celebrate! All I need is the fact that the World Title is over my shoulder, and that I proved all of you dumb fans wrong once more! That is good enough for me! And now...now I am moving on from Sonic! I won! He lost! I'm World Champ, he's a dumb failure of a rodent! Let him deal with the fact that I am better than him, and that I am the Greatest Champion Ever!"
The crowd was chanting "You're Full of Bullshit!" at Mario as he continued. "And now...now I move on...to greener pastures...to bigger events...to a grand stage...Final Clash. UCA's Granddaddy of Them All. It's only two months away, more or less, and we now have one-half of the main-event...Matt Ishida." The crowd absolutely roared at the name mention, chanting "Matt! Matt! Matt!" "The Digidestined of Friendship...he shocked the world last night by returning to Fiction Wrestling here in UCA. And then he went on to win the Royal Rumble Match. And thus, he earned himself a World Title Match at Final Clash. Well, I got to admit, the victory was impressive, shocking, and amazing all in one. Matt has got himself a chance to dance on the main match of the big stage...but in the end, his so-called 'resurrection' will all be for naught, and he will have won the Rumble for nothing! Why? Because when I go to Final Clash as champion - not IF, but WHEN - I will dash his hopes and dreams into the ground! I will crush this damn resurrection, and make him wish he had never return to this business! I was able to beat last year's Royal Rumble Winner, Shadow, at Final Clash, and I can damn sure do it again this year! Matt, if you are listening, know that at Final Clash...you will just become another name that has fallen to what is no doubt...THE GREATEST WORLD TITLE REIGN IN HISTORY!"
"But that...that isn't until Final Clash. Right now, it's time to focus on more current things. For in three weeks time, UCA will hold its final PPV before Final Clash, called Last Stand. And it's kind of an appropriate name as it truly is the last stand for many people before Final Clash, the last stand for superstars to make a true impact in UCA in hopes of getting on the grand card. And on this PPV, I will defend, and RETAIN, my World Heavyweight Title one final time before heading to the Final Clash main event. Now, I'm sure all of you are wondering...who will face me for MY title. Well, that...is up to me. For you see, Force told me that if I was able to retain my World Title against Sonic under the conditions he set, then I would have the right to name my next challenger! And I believe it is obvious at this point that I have done just that! So whether you all like it or not, I will get to decide who I face at Last Stand! And I have already decided my challenger! So ladies and gentlemen, those in attendance, and those at home, the one I will face at Last Stand...with my World Title on the line...is..."
("Bat Country" by Avenged Sevenfold)
The crowd exploded into THUNDEROUS boos as Mario snapped his head to the stage, and Bowser came out onto the stage, a serious look on his face as he walked down to the ring.
"Oh boy! Bowser is here, people!" Church stated. "The who eliminated ELEVEN guys in the Rumble has just showed up, and this crowd is just absolutely MERCILESS on the Koopa King! They know that Bowser is the reason Sonic isn't World Champ at this point!"
"Well they should just get over it, but now I'm worried about Mario right now!" Sarge said. "Bowser may have saved Mario, which I am grateful for, but even I know that Bowser has no love for Mario! Which may end badly for Mario..."
"Couple that hatred with the fact that Bowser lost the Royal Rumble, and Bowser is DEFINITELY not happy here." Church stated. "For whatever reason Bowser is out here, I think Mario is going to get a good ol' fashion ass-kicking!"
Mario was apprehensive as Bowser entered the ring, grabbing a mic as he did. He stared off with Mario for a few seconds, the red plumber looking ready to fight for his life as Bowser slowly brought the mic to his lips, his serious expression never changing.
"So, Super Mario...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Do I have my World Title Match?" Bowser smirked.
Mario suddenly dropped his apprehensive stance and smirked back at Bowser. "Bowser, my old rival...you GOT your World Title Match at Last Stand!"
BOWSER AND MARIO ACTUALLY SHAKE HANDS! The crowd is in absolute shock as the two age-old rivals continue to shake hands with satisfied smirks on their face.
"WHAT IN THE FUCK?! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!" Church exclaimed. "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!"
("Boom" by P.O.D)
Force came out onto the stage in a heartbeat, a disbelieving look on his face and a mic in hand as he stared at Bowser and Mario in the ring.
"Hey, what is Force doing out here?" Sarge questioned.
"TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS CRAP LIKE THE REST OF US!" Church stated.
"What...what in the freakin' hell is this shit?!" Force asked. "What am I seeing?! Because quite frankly, this scene shouldn't even be possible! You two shaking hands?! You two HATE each other! You've two been through so many battles over the Mushroom Kingdom that it never means any sort of peace between you two! And on top of that, Mario, you give Bowser A FREAKIN' WORLD TITLE MATCH?! What is the goddamn meaning of this?! I demand an answer RIGHT NOW!"
Bowser looked at Force with a smirk and spoke. "Well, I'll be glad to tell Force, since I don't have a reason not to now that I have what I want. See Force, I have been with UCA for a bit over three years now. I have dominated, I have won titles, I have impressed, I even had an undefeated streak for over a year! But despite all of that...I have NEVER had a single World Title Match in this company! Not one! Not even a multi-man World Title shot! And quite frankly, that's just bullshit in my opinion! I am the most dominating monster in this company today, I DESERVE a World Title Match more than anyone else! That was why I was so damn determined to win the Royal Rumble to get that World Title shot...but then talk of the Big Man Curse sprang up. The curse that despite a size advantage, big men always fail to win the Royal Rumble. I was determined to break the curse, but the doubt was in my mind that I would fall regardless to it. I was feeling so frustrated with everything...when Mario payed me a visit. Now I was prepared to tear his head off...when he gave me a proposition. See, he said that he was fully confident that he would beat Sonic in Last Man Standing, but asked that if at any point in the match, it looked like he was about to lose...I come in and take down Sonic for him, making sure that he would walk out champion! And in return, he would name me the next challenger for his World Title! Even with my hatred for Mario, it was an offer I COULDN'T refuse! So when I took down Sonic, I was set! If I won the Royal Rumble, I would get my World Title shot at Final Clash! If I didn't, then I get my World Title shot at Last Stand! Now I don't like Mario now or anything, it's nothing like that...it's just business, Force. A business decision you forced me to make by not giving me my title shot."
"Since Bowser was not of the Mushroom Kingdom, and still isn't..." Mario began, a smirk on his face. "He could interfere if he wanted in the Last Man Standing match. And he did. And since I am standing here as the World Champion, he gets his well-deserved World Title match. A match I will win of course, that I am sure of, but a match he gets nonetheless. Guess what Force? I found a loophole in your little stipulations, and took full advantage of them! I guess you must be pretty pissed? But guess what?! A champion does whatever it takes to win! A champion does whatever it takes to keep the title around his waist! If you don't do that, then you aren't any champion at all! And I am the smartest champion in history! Only I could have thought of such a thing! And that is one of the things that makes me the Greatest Champion Ever! I outsmarted you Force, all of these fans, and Sonic! I outsmarted ALL OF YOU! And there was NOTHING you could do about it! So if you haven't gotten used to me as champion by this point, GET USED TO IT NOW! Because this is my show, and it will be for a long time!"
"Are...you...KIDDING ME?!" Church exclaimed. "THE WHOLE THING WAS A FUCKING CONSPIRACY?! IT WAS MARIO EXPLOITING A LOOPHOLE WITH AN OFFER TO BOWSER?! THIS IS COMPLETE AND UTTER BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT I SAY!"
"HAH! Such great smarts on Mario's part! He found a way to outsmart all the fans and even Force, which isn't an easy thing to do!" Sarge laughed. "This is just another why Mario is...Hey, what's wrong with Force?"
Force the Fox was shown on the stage, practically shaking with rage as he clenched the mic tightly in his hand. Slowly, almost menacingly, he raised the mic to his lips.
"That...that...THAT IS FUCKING IT!" Force yelled out in rage. "I HAVE HAD IT! I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOUR BULLSHIT MARIO! I HAVE HAD IT WITH THE CRAP YOU HAVE BEEN PULLING FOR A YEAR NOW! You want to know why I haven't been so hard on you despite what you have pulled?! It's because I want to be a fair authority figure here in UCA! I don't want to be one of those evil heel GMs who try to screw over faces constantly like GB and Jon Arbunckle, but I also don't want to be seen as a guy who favors faces constantly and gives them the shots, like Zack Watkins is somewhat seen as! I wanted to be fair, unbiased, and a guy who did what was best! It was that thinking that got me the GM of the Year Award! That's why I have anything done anything so bad to you because I realize that screwjobs and cheating are destined to happen in wrestling! But this...THIS crosses the damn line Mario! I put those stipulations to get you to for once in your title reign fight like a man, like a true champion and prove your worth! Instead, you find a loophole, and use it to weasel your way out with the World Title! Well that just broke the damn camel's back with me, Mario! Because as far as I'm concerned, you should be PUNISHED for this sort of bullshit! And you are about to be! Mario, you DO get to name your next challenger, I won't go back on my word like that, but Mario guess what? You will be defending the World Heavyweight Title against Bowser, not at Last Stand...
...BUT TONIGHT!"
"HOLY SHIT!" Church shouted.
The crowd exploded in shock as Bowser grew a joyous grin as Mario's eyes went wide before screaming in rage. "NO! NO! NO! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! I'M JUST COMING OFF A BRUTAL LAST MAN STANDING MATCH! I'M STILL HURT! I AM IN NO CONDITION TO COMPETE TONIGHT! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!"
"I can, and I am Mario! The doctors didn't tell me you couldn't compete tonight, so that's the green light for you defending that World Title tonight against Bowser!" Force stated angrily. "And it only gets WORSE Mario! Because if you SOMEHOW get past Bowser, you'll still have something to look forward to! For at Last Stand, the World Heavyweight Title will be defended...
...INSIDE THE ELIMINATION CHAMBER!"
"OH MY GOD!" Church shouted.
The crowd was thunderous with cheers as Mario was absolutely livid. "NO! THIS ISN'T RIGHT! I AM THE UCA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! I AM THE GREATEST CHAMPION EVER! THE STAR AND FACE OF UCA! THIS IS BULLSHIT! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! YOU CAN'T!"
"Cry me a river, Mario." Force stated cruelly. "You dug your own grave with this bunch of crap, now you gotta lie in it. I hope you didn't have any plans for the main event of Final Clash, because I think you won't be able to make it there. I suggest you take all the time you can to actually prepare for later tonight, if you want to have even a REMOTE chance of walking out World Champion! Though a lot of good that will do you!"
("Boom" by P.O.D.)
The crowd cheered loudly as Force went backstage in an angry huff, leaving Mario to rage against the ropes, protesting against the matches Force just made. Bowser suddenly walked up to behind Mario, a devious smirk on his face. Mario felt Bowser behind and turned around to face the evil smirk of Bowser. Mario suddenly gained a look of fear before rolling out of the ring and quickly backed up the ramp in great apprehension, Bowser continued to smirk at the retreating Mario, now chuckling at this turn of events.
"Oh man, Mario may have been able to weasel his way out last night, but his plans have now landed him in the worst form of trouble I've seen in a long while!" Church stated. "He's got to defend the World Title against Bowser tonight not 24 hours after a Last Man Standing Match! And if that wasn't bad enough, the World Title will be defended inside the Elimination Chamber in three weeks!"
"This is so not right! This is a complete travesty!" Sarge stated. "Our great Super Mario doesn't deserve this sort of treatment! It's truly wrong on so many levels! Not even I am sure if Mario can survive this!"
"Mario brought this all on himself, he has no one to blame but himself!" Church said. "Many people thought Mario would make it to Final Clash as World Champion, but the identity of the man walking into that event with the title is in jeopardy more than ever! Who knows what else is going to happen tonight?!"
The camera went to the Titantron, which showed Jason walking down the backstage hallways, a HUGE frown on his face. He had the IC Title draped over his shoulder as he kept walking until Caboose suddenly showed up in front of him. Jason shot a dirty look at Caboose, who stared a bit dumbly at the champ.
"Oh hey Jason..." Caboose said. "Yeah, I bet you are wondering why I am here...well I was told by those big guys over there...that um, I had to come here and ask you some question. Yeah, and I told that you were kind of scary lately, and I didn't want to deal with the scary Jason...and then they kicked me over here and told me to do my job, so...yeah..."
"Ask me what you must ask, before I tear your head off." Jason growled.
"Well okay then!" Caboose stated. "So um...you were able to retain that title of yours...and then you broke Pit's neck - please don't break mine - and you last a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long.." Caboose was interrupted with a death glare from Jason. "Yeah, well, you lasted a long time in the Rumble. But then...you kind of hurt Hope. And you got him out of the Rumble. Soooooo...why'd you do it?"
"You want to know why I took little Hope out of the Rumble after I was eliminated?" Jason queried. "Simple. Last night, I was on a freakin' roll! I had successfully retained my Intercontinental Title against that hypocritical angel, Pit, and for good measure broke his neck! And quite frankly, he DESERVED it! That was a great way to start my night off, bar none! After all, breaking necks is such a pleasure! And then it was on to the Rumble! A match I had to start from #1, drained a bit from my earlier match, making it almost impossible for me to win! But I wasn't worried, because I felt that I could do it regardless! I felt I could win from the #1 entry after an earlier match, and win the Rumble in even grander style than Red did, even with the surprise return of Matt! And it became apparent that I had to win for the Rookie Revolution when Cage got eliminated first, and Starforce got screwed over by that damn bird! It was up to me secure Rookie Revolution dominance last night by going the distance! By winning the Rumble for us! But guess what...I FAILED! WE FAILED! My ascension to greatness...the key to assuring the Revolution dominating UCA...DESTROYED! And there is ONE person to blame for my failure...the person responsible for the Revolution to fail in the end in the match...a hedgehog named Hope. That little damn hedgehog thought it was cool to kick my head off and take me out of my Rumble! Little Hope thought it was just okay to make my forty-eights minute in the Rumble mean absolutely nothing! He made everything I had fought for in that match...mean absolutely...nothing...Well...that wasn't right at all was it? So Hope had to pay, didn't he? The little heroic hedgehog had to suffer for causing my destiny to be delayed! So I had him pay in the best way possible...costing him the Royal Rumble Match! Just like he did me! I cost him the Final Clash main event because quite frankly, he deserved it! Maybe THAT will teach him to take away what is rightfully mine! And now tonight...I got his friend from his D-Hedgeration X days, Shadow, in a match. And considering that Shadow got his ass kicked soundly by the false God, Chaos, heh I think it will be easy taking this emohog out of the game. Hope, if you are predictable as I think you are, then you will OBVIOUSLY try and do something to get me back. If you ARE thinking about it, then watch what I do to your little friend, Hope. Watch...and soon know the consequences of trying to cross me again."
Jason left Caboose where he was, a frown on the IC Champ's face the whole time.
"Oh man, Jason is very much pissed!" Church stated. "Pissed that he didn't win the Rumble! And he took it out on Hope last night!"
"Well Hope shouldn't have eliminated Jason in the first place!" Sarge stated. "He brought it on himself for what he did to Jason and the Reds!"
"Well, I think Jason's just being a sore loser. I mean, he lasted forty-eight minutes after competing in a match earlier, that's impressive stuff." Church stated. "But regardless, tonight Jason faces off with Shadow, and who knows what will happen in that match?"
"I'll tell you what happens in that match: ABSOLUTE DESTRUCTION OF SHADOW!" Sarge shouted. "And nothing can be done about it."
("No More Words" by EndeverafteR)
The crowd exploded into very loud cheers as Crash came out onto the stage like a house of fire, spinning into a full twister before jumping into the air and landing on his feet to a blast of orange pyro around him. Crash then ran down the ramp like crazy before sliding into the ring and climbing up a corner, bobbing his head to the beat of the music with his signature grin on his face.
"The following is your opening contest of the evening, and it is an Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match set for one fall! Introducing first, accompanied by his sister Coco Bandicoot, weighing in at 213 lbs., Crash Bandicoot!"
"As decreed earlier tonight by Force, the UCA World Title will be defended at Last Stand in the Elimination Chamber!" Church stated. "And Force has decided that the participants will be decided in the upcoming weeks in qualifying matches! And Crash here is coming off one HELL of a performance in the Royal Rumble! He lasted over fifty-five minutes in that match, and came in second place there! And now he is looking to get inside the Elimination Chamber in three weeks!"
"I will admit, this stupid bandicoot has actually impressed me recently. Hard not to be with what Crash did there." Sarge stated. "But in the end, it won't even matter tonight! Because this bandicoot won't make it to the Elimination Chamber! If he did, it wouldn't be good for ANYONE!"
"What is wrong with you, Sarge?! Crash being in the Elimination Chamber would be great!" Church stated. "Not only would he thrive in it, he would have a great chance at finally winning the World Title he's been after in UCA, but he's got to win this match first to get there!"
("Give Me A Sign" by Breaking Benjamin)
The crowd booed as Luigi came out, a very big frown on his face. Ignoring the fans booing him, he stared down Crash in the ring before making his way down the ramp. Luigi got on the apron and entered the ring, glaring at Crash for a moment before climbing up the corner and giving out the peace sign with his hands.
"And his opponent, representing the Mushroom Kingdom, from Brooklyn, New York, now residing in Mushroom Kingdom, weighing in at 225 lbs. Luigi!"
"Luigi is not a happy camper right now. Last night, he and Yoshi failed to capture the Tag Team Titles from from Tails and Knuckles, adding to what was a horrible night for the Mushroom Kingdom." Church stated. "Luigi looks to bounce back from that with a victory here to put him in the Elimination Chamber."
"If Mario makes it to the chamber, Luigi would be a great addition for the match!" Sarge stated. "After all, Mario would get to have his brother helping him retain the World Title in what in such an unfair match! So awesome that would be!"
"Well, we'll see if that happens because not only does Luigi need to win this match, Mario actually has to make it to Last Stand as champion!" Church stated.
Luigi and Crash stood in respective corners as the ref checked on them and then rang the bell. The two slowly circled each other for a moment before going for a lock-up. Luigi got behind Crash and executed a Waistlock Takedown on the bandicoot. Luigi quickly transitioned into a Front Facelock and wrenched on the head, but Crash stood in tow with Luigi, and pushed the plumbed into the ropes. Luigi bounced off them and back to Crash for a clothesline, but Crash ducked it. Luigi bounced off the ropes once more, and Crash caught him with a Hip Toss. Luigi got back up, but was taken down with a Dropkick from Crash. Crash picked up Luigi and whipped him into the corner. Crash ran at Luigi and nailed a Jumping Forearm Smash in the corner. Luigi stumbled out of the corner as Crash bounced off the ropes and back to Luigi, nailing a Spinning Wheel Kick. Crash got up and posed for the crowd who cheered loudly before picking up Luigi, who broke free and nailed a hard right to the jaw of Crash.
"Crash was gaining some momentum, but Luigi cuts him off with a hard right to the jaw!" Church stated.
"Yeah, and hopefully, Crash lost some teeth! Would fit with that insanity with his!" Sarge said.
Luigi kicked the stunned Crash in the gut and followed up with a Snap Suplex to the bandicoot. Luigi then bounced off the ropes and nailed a Jumping Elbow Drop to the downed Crash. Luigi picked up Crash and quickly landed a Belly-to-Belly Suplex on him, followed by a cover! 1...2...Kick out! Luigi picked up Crash and landed a few fists to the face, backing him into a corner. Luigi rammed his shoulder into Crash's gut about three times before grabbing Crash and whipping him into the adjacent corner. Luigi ran full force at Crash, but the bandicoot moved out of the way causing Luigi to crash into the corner chest-first. Luigi backed out of the corner, and Crash took the opportunity to grab Luigi's head and nail a Swinging Neckbreaker on him! Crash with the cover! 1...2...Kick out!
"Crash manages to take back control here!" Church stated.
"And why is he in control? Crash being in control is good for NOBODY!" Sarge said.
Crash picked up Luigi and kicked him in the gut, doubling him over before. Crash bounced off the ropes and nailed a Dropkick to the side of Luigi's head. Crash then climbed a nearby turnbuckle and stood on the top. Luigi slowly stood to his feet, and Crash dived off the top! Diving Crossbody on Luigi...
...Luigi rolls through the Crossbody and has Crash pinned!

Crash kicks out!
Both men scrambled to their feet, and Crash leaped up and caught Luigi with a Frankensteiner! Luigi rolled across the mat and stood up against a corner, and Crash ran at Luigi and leaped at him, trying for a Monkey Flip, but Luigi pushed Crash off of him! The bandicoot landed on his feet and ran at Luigi, but Luigi ducked a clothesline, and quickly nailed a Half-Nelson Suplex on the bandicoot!
"Oh man, Luigi stopped Crash's momentum by dropping him on his head! Not going to do any favors for Crash!" Church stated.
"Of course not! And now Luigi has put himself on the glorious Red path to victory!" Sarge said.
Luigi went to Crash and began hammering elbows to the back of the head of the bandicoot before picking him up and landing a Scoop Slam on him. Luigi then stomped on Crash's gut, causing him to sit up. Luigi then bounced off the ropes and nailed a Dropkick to Crash's face. Luigi then grabbed Crash's head and locked in a Headlock once more! Crashed writhed in pain as Luigi tightened the hold on him, but Crash slowly stood up to his feet with Luigi in tow. Crash grabbed Luigi and went for a Back Suplex, but Luigi landed behind Crash. Crash turned around, and was grabbed by Luigi...
...and nailed with an Exploder Suplex!
"Exploder Suplex on Crash out of nowhere!" Church stated. "Luigi doing his damn best to keep Crash grounded!"
"Which is great, because Crash flying is dangerous for everyone, INCLUDING ME!" Sarge exclaimed.
Luigi crawls over to Crash for the cover!

Crash kicks out!
Crash rolled over to a corner and sat against it, and Luigi wasted no time in stomping the hell out of Crash. After six stomps, he then pressed his foot against Crash's jaw with all his might, pushing Crash's head back a bit too much. After a few seconds, Luigi let go and bounced off the ropes, nailing a Running Facewash. Luigi picked Crash up to his feet and whipped him into the ropes. He went for a Back Body Drop as he came back, but Crash caught him with a kick to the chest, forcing him to a standing position. Crash bounced off the ropes and back to Luigi, but Luigi caught him with a Spinning Sitout Sleeper Slam! Luigi then got on the apron, and leaped onto the apron...
...NEGATIVE ZONE ON CRASH!
"The Negative Zone connects on Crash! Could this be it?" Church questioned.
Luigi makes the cover!

Crash kicks out!
"Gah, no it's not, and such a damn shame that is!" Sarge said.
Luigi picked up Crash and nailed an Elbow to the side of Crash's head, backing him up into a corner. Luigi grabbed Crash and whipped him into the adjacent corner. Luigi ran at Crash, but the bandicoot caught him with a foot to the jaw. With Luigi stunned, Crash turned around, and quickly climbed the turnbuckle...
...Luigi pushes his legs out from under him! Crash falls down onto the top turnbuckle and ends up in the Tree of Woe position! With Crash trapped, Luigi began to kick the abdomen of Crash as he hung upside down viciously, followed by several Shoulder Rams to the gut of Crash! After three of them, Luigi backed up until he was in the center of the ring, and ran full speed at Crash...
...CRASH PULLS HIS BODY UP IN A SITTING POSITION ON THE TURNBCUKLE! Luigi goes through the turnbuckles and shoulder-first into the steel post!
"Ouch! Crash avoids disaster and Luigi's shoulder MEETS disaster!" Church stated.
"Damn, how the hell did that bandicoot do that?!" Sarge questioned.
The crowd cheered loudly as Crash regained himself as he sat on the top turnbuckle before slowly standing up on it. As he did this, Luigi slowly got out of the turnbuckles and backed out of the corner. Once standing with back turned, Crash checked to see Luigi a bit away stunned, and then backflipped off the top, twisting in mid-air...
...CRASH AND BURN ON LUIGI!
"The bandicoot Crash and Burns on the plumber! Luigi is nearly out of it!" Church stated.
Crash hooks the leg!

"Yes, Luigi stays alive! Thanks God for keeping Crash away from the Elimination Chamber!" Sarge said.
Crash slowly stood up and waited as Luigi stood up, and then dropped him with a clothesline! Luigi got back up, and was hit with another clothesline! Luigi got back up once more and was hit with a Dropkick to the chest! Luigi rolled over to a nearby corner and sat against it, but Crash ran over to where he is, and quickly nailed a Hardyac Arrest Dropkick on the plumber! Crash pulled Luigi out of the corner and after setting him up, he climbed the corner with his back turned to Luigi. He dived off...
...AND HITS A DIVING MOONSAULT!
"Crash flies high, and gets it all with that Moonsault! The end may be near for Luigi!" Church said.
"No! Luigi, do something! Hit some damn move or something!" Sarge said.
Crash stood up holding his stomach and looked at the writhing Luigi, and signaled for the end. He waited as Luigi slowly got up to his feet, and then kicked him in the gut. He grabbed him in a Front Facelock, spun around...
...Luigi spun out of the Wumpa Twist! Crash turned to face him, and Luigi grabbed and hooked him up...

CRASH KICKS OUT!
"Green Lightning out of nowhere, and it STILL couldn't get the job done!" Church stated.
"Just die, you stupid bandicoot, JUST DIE!" Sarge exclaimed.
Luigi frowned at the kickout before picking up Crash and dragging him to a corner. He placed Crash on the top turnbuckle, and tried to climb up there to meet him, but Crash suddenly shot out with punches to the face. Crash kicked Luigi away and stood tall on the top. Crash dived off...
...Luigi moved out of the way! Crash landed on his feet, and then ran at Luigi, but Luigi Drop Toe Holds him! Crash lands throat-first on the second ropes, and stumbles up to his feet. Luigi grabs Crash's head from behind, and hits an Inverted Suplex on him! Crash holds his abdomen as he gets to his knees, and Luigi grabs him by the waist from behind...

CRASH KICKS OUT!
"AGAIN, Crash kicks out! He wants that spot in the Chamber BAD!" Church said.
"Yeah? WELL HE AIN'T GETTING IT!" Sarge stated.
Luigi got up and decided that the end was now. He waited as Crash slowly got back to his feet, kicked him in the gut. Luigi hooked him up and lifted him up for the Luigi Screwdriver, but Crash suddenly swung his legs widly while upside down, and managed to land behind Luigi. He pushed the plumber into the ropes, and Luigi went for a clothesline as he bounced off them, but Crash ducked. Luigi turned around and was nailed with an Enziguri! Luigi was dazed on his feet, and Crash hooked him up...
...AFTERSHOCK TO LUIGI!
"And there goes the Aftershock!" Church said. "Crash gaining some momentum now!"
"Oh hell no! Luigi will take him down in the end! He sure will!" Sarge said.
Crash and Luigi were laid out on the mat, trying to recover. Slowly but surely, Luigi and Crash got up to their feet, with Crash getting up near a corner. Luigi saw Crash, and ran and leaped at him for a Corner Splash, but Crash moved out of the way! Luigi crashes into the corner and backs out of in a daze, and Crash hits him with a Backstabber from behind! Crash feels it as Luigi arches his back in pain before getting to his knees. Crash grabs his head and picks him up...
...AND HITS THE WUMPA TWIST!
"WUMPA TWIST CONNECTS! THE END MAY BE NEAR!" Church stated.
"NO! NO! NO!" Sarge exclaimed.
Crash points to the turnbuckle to a great crowd reaction before getting on the apron and climbing up to the top. Once there, he stood tall on it...flipped off...
...AND HITS THE CRASH LANDING ON LUIGI!
"CRASH LANDING CONNECTS!" Church said.
"AH DAMMIT!" Sarge cursed.
Crash covers Luigi!

"And Crash is going to Last Stand, people!" Church said.
("No More Words" by EndeverafteR)
"Here is your winner, Crash Bandicoot!"
The crowd was roaring with cheers as Crash stood up and began bouncing up and down with joy, knowing that he now had a shot at the World Title. Crash shouted "WOAH!" as he had signature crazy grin on his face, getting on the ropes and raising his arms in sheer triumph. Crash got off the ropes and the ref raised his arm in victory as Crash soaked it in.
"Crash has just beaten Luigi, and as such, goes on to the Elimination Chamber at Last Stand!" Church stated. "Crash has now got a chance to main event Final Clash!"
"Dammit it all to hell! Not only does Luigi fail to get into the chamber to help his brother, but this stupid bandicoot gets the spot!" Sarge stated. "What did I do deserve this?!"
"Sarge, suck it up. Crash won, so get over it." Church said.
Crash got up on the turnbuckle, and posed for the fans in attendance who received him very positively. He looked at the Final Clash sign and gave his grin before motioning that the World Title was coming to him, and then pointed to the Final Clash sign in a very confident manner.
"Crash makes it clear, people! He wants the World Title and the Final Clash main event!" Church stated. "A fifteen-year career in UCA could finally culminate at Last Stand inside the Chamber! I wouldn't mind seeing Matt vs Crash after their Final Two encounter last night."
"Crash ain't going to win! He's failed in every UCA World Title shot he's had before, and he'll fail this time as well! I just know it!" Sarge said.
"Well we'll find out at Last Stand, becuase it may take only three decisive seconds for Crash to finally win it at all Last Stand." Church said.
The screen goes to some empty hallway backstage on the Titantron. No one was seen, and the crowd was confused as all remain silent for a few seconds until...
"I'm back, people..."
The camera turned to the right to show Blue leaning against the wall, head held down with his hair shadowing his eyes, the crowd booing him straight to hell.
"That's right everybody...I'm back. The Original MF'in Oak is here again in UCA after a few months away. And I made my return something to remember...by costing Red the Royal Rumble Match. Oh, it was spectacular! Seeing that damn bastard get so wrapped up in my music played, thinking I was actually going to come out...and then gets his ass eliminated by Jason of all people! He didn't even get past the final entrant in the Rumble thanks to me! Ah, such a sweet sight to behold! And then...I take him down and drop him on his head with a Shell Shock DDT on the stage! That...that felt SO damn good right there. It truly did. Not often did I feel such pleasure in hurting someone like I did to Red last night. Causing Red pain and agony...brought me a satisfaction few could even hope to imagine. But some idiots may ask "Why did you do it? Why did you cost Red the Rumble? Why did you cost Red the World Title at Survival Games?" Well, I think those who follow UCA probably know the reason why, but for those who just don't get it, allow me tell you why I've done all this with no damn regret whatsoever!"
Blue slowly lifted his head up, showing off his intense and angry eyes. "In UCA, I am a freakin' legend. I am future UCA Hall of Famer! I am a six-time World Champion in this damn company! I held the Intercontinental Title nine times, more times than anyone else! The first Cruiserweight Champion this company has ever had! I won the Triple Crown AND The Grand Slam! Hell, I even fucking created my own World Title, the Universe Heavyweight Championship, and actually got it LEGITIMATELY RECOGNIZED! I led the greatest stable that UCA has ever seen, the Rival Empire, and was the biggest heel this business had in 2005! I have main evented Final Clash many times, and hell, I even was a part of TWO successful Pokemon-Digimon pairings in my career! I am the biggest damn heel this company will ever have! But despite all of that, all of those goddamn accomplishments that should have people jealous, all anyone ever talks about when it comes to me...all anyone ever thinks about when my name comes up...
...is that I have NEVER beaten Red. For sixteen goddamn years, no matter what I do, no matter what I throw, no matter what I bring, I haven't been able to beat the son of a bitch decisively! Not by pinfall, not by submission, not by disqualification, not by countout, hell not even in a goddamn Pokemon Battle! That damn Red always beats me in the end for SOME FUCKING REASON! And quite frankly, it's bullshit! Because I know I am the better man! I know I am better than Red could ever hope to be, that I am the true star and face of this company! That I should be the one people think of when it comes to UCA, when it comes to Pokemon! Yet God hates me apparently, because he keeps making it so that Red keeps getting the damn better than me and has all the attention that I should have! And the fact that I have never beaten Red CONSUMES my career! Yeah, despite everything I have done, no one ever acknowledges the accomplishments! No, all they want to acknowledge is that I keep losing to Red! Hell, some people even think I'm a stupid bumbling idiot because I can't beat one person! THAT IS FUCKING BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT I SAY! My career - hell, even my damn life - has been overshadowed and ruined by Red! It's just...just...AARRGGGHHH! SO DAMN INFURIATING! SIXTEEN YEARS OF SOMETHING ALWAYS MAKING ME LOSE TO HIM! SIXTEEN YEARS OF HIM ALWAYS MAKING ME LOOK LIKE A FOOL!"
Blue was practically seething great anger and rage before taking a deep breath, and taking a dark, stoic look. "And last year...I just couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't fucking take it anymore. So I made a vow...a damn vow that with every fiber of my being...that I will make sure Red never gets another accolade in his career as I long as I remain winless against him. No more Final Clash main events, no more World Titles, no more Royal Rumble wins...NO MORE ANYTHING! That "ten-time World Champion" deal he goes on about...never going to damn happen, because I will be there every step of the way, ready to screw him over and make sure he fails! Just like he has made sure I fail against him time and time again! He will feel the agony I have felt, the frustration, dealing with bullshit, he will feel it all! And it won't ever stop until I finally beat that son of a bitch once and for all! This started at Survival Games...it continued at Royal Reckoning...and it will keep on continuing as long as I breathe. Red...I hope you enjoy coming up short time and time again when it comes to the big one...because that is what will happen for the rest of your career as long as I breathe, as long as you keep beating me. Prepare to feel my wrath...prepare to feel the sting...of constant failure. Prepare to have you career die with a whimper. Trust me...this is only the beginning."
Blue then pushed the camera away with a angry scowl on his face before walking away from the area.
"Oh man...Blue has got a level of rage I have rarely seen before." Church stated. "I think he has finally snapped. And he intends of making Red pay for what he has gone through."
"Red deserves it in my view! It's all his fault!" Sarge said. "If he didn't keep beating Blue so much, this wouldn't be happening! He should have let Blue beat him one or two times!"
"Those would've been fake victories, and you know it Sarge! I don't think Blue wants that kind of victory over Red!" Church said. "Besides, after what Blue has done to Red over the years, no way in hell would Red just let Blue beat him! It's Blue's fault for not being good enough to beat his rival!"
"Well, Red's finally going to pay for making Blue look like a fool that he isn't!" Sarge stated. "Red payed for it at Survival Games and Royal Reckoning, and he will pay for it in the future!"
"This is only going to get worse before it even has a chance of getting better, people. Trust me." Church said.
("We Are One" by 12 Stones)
"WAIT! WHAT THE...?!" Church exclaimed.
The crowd stood up in confusion and shock as the music played. Some fans didn't know who the music belong to, but others knew exactly what this music was heralding the arrival of. Moments later, someone came out. That person is...
...WOLFGANG!
"WOLFGANG!" Church stated. "THE ALPHA MALE, THE BULLY LEADER IS HERE IN UCA! WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIM HERE IN UCA SINCE 2001!"
"MY GOD, THE ULTIMATE BULLY HAS COME BACK! THE ULTIMATE BULLY IS HERE ONCE AGAIN!" Sarge exclaimed.
The crowd exploded into loud boos at the sight of him, and Wolfgang just looked at all of them with a sneer on his face. The Bully made his way down the ramp and entered the ring, and demanded a mic from the ringside crew, which was answered almost immediately.
"I don't know how or why, but Wolfgang is back in UCA, and now he's got a mic! This is I want to hear!" Church said.
The crowd was still in a vicious booing state as Wolfgang spoke. "Hey, all you weenies! Guess what? I'M BACK! That's right, I am back in Universal Character Association after being gone for a decade! I bet your little internet dirt sheets didn't predict this, am I right? Now listen up, I left this company in 2001 because I felt UCA wasn't doing any good for me anymore! I left for full-time in WWE because quite frankly, I just wasn't feeling it for this company anymore! But I left thinking that hey, no one would ever forget what Wolfgang managed to do in UCA! But for the past ten years, I have watched this company grow, grow, and grow into the great entity it is today. I watched as it made headlines, got buyrates, and achieved high ratings! But one thing that got to me as I watched this company grow...was that it COMPLETELY FORGOT ME! Yeah, for some damn reason, this place decided to forget the Alpha Male ever existed in this place, to be rarely mention! How could it?! I'm a former UCA World Heavyweight Champion, and I won the damn 1998 Royal Rumble! Hell, I competed in the first UCA Hell in a Cell Match! I left a mark in this company, and yet you people think it's okay to forget about it because I'm a Bully, because you survived having a Bully here, and think that you didn't have to deal with me anymore! You tried to erase me from history so everything in the history of this company could be sprinkles and rainbows! To actually believe Bullies were truly gone from your life! Well I had enough, so I got myself a contract with Force, and now I am back in this damn company! I am back to once again reintroduce to you all the power and strength the Bullies have! You're going to find out that no matter what, you will never TRULY be rid of us Bullies! And right now, I'm going to start by calling out any damn weenie that is actually stupid enough to face me! Come on out and face me in a match so you can become an example I make to these idiots!"
"Wolfgang has made his thoughts clear!" Church said as a ref came down to the ring for the upcoming match. "He thinks we forgot him, and he doesn't like people forgetting about Bullies! So here he is, back to once again make his presence felt! And he starts with an open challenge!"
"Wolfgang is "The Ultimate Bully" as we called him long ago, and I don't think it's a good idea FOR ANYONE to accept this challenge!" Sarge said.
"Maybe you are right for once Sarge, but there may be someone back there that doesn't fear this Bully!" Church stated.
Time passed as Wolfgang waited patiently for anyone to answer his challenge, but no one came out. After 30 seconds passed, Wolfgang chuckled and spoke once more.
"Well, what do you know?" Wolfgang said. "No one wants to accept the Alpha Male's challenge! Can't say I'm surprised! Because they all know what will happen if they do: I will destroy their asses before putting them down with a Wolf's Kick! They are scared of me, just like they were scared over 12 years ago! They know their place when it comes to me, as should all of you! It may be a new era in UCA, but it's just a new day for me to prove my dominance in this company! And trust me, no weenie back there could ever hope to hand-"
("My World" by Transmissions)
The crowd exploded into cheers as Wolfgang looked at the stage in surprise, and who else but Gordon Freeman to come out to the music! Gordon Freeman stared down Wolfgang in the ring behind his glasses before making his way down the ramp.
"WOAH! Gordon Freeman!" Church exclaimed in surprise. "The guy who debuted last night during the Royal Rumble with an impressive performance! And he has surprisingly accepted Wolfgang's challenge!"
"I don't know what Gordon is thinking!" Sarge stated. "I know he is good, considering his performance last night, but fighting Wolfgang is SUICIDE!"
"Well I don't think Gordon feels that way!" Church stated. "I think he believes he can take on this Bully no problem!"
Gordon entered the ring and came face-to-face with Wolfgang who just chuckled at Gordon. "Well what do you know, people? We got ourselves one stupid weenie who decides to take on britches MUCH bigger than he can handle! So, weenie, tell me...what is your name?"
Wolfgang held the mic to Gordon's lip, but predictably to Half-Life fans, Gordon doesn't speak. He only continues to stare at Wolfgang silently, and the Bully pulls the mic back to him.
"What's the matter, Four-Eyes? Cat got your tongue?" Wolfgang smirked. "Are you...intimidated by me? Do you now realize what you are up against? Can't say I'm surprised. After all, I'm the guy who Speared Link through the roof of the Hell in a Cell in 1998! I'm the guy who dominated WWE with the Bully Court years ago! I'm the guy who put Henry Wong over on Animated on the injured reserves list FOR THREE DAMN YEARS! I'm the guy who lead the Bullies to war on Anime all over Fiction Wrestling! You decided to be a tough guy, but now you are so scared, you can't even speak! Well be very scared, man, because you are going to be put down before your career can even..."
Wolfgang was interrupted when Gordon grabs the mic and pushes it away from the Bully! Wolfgang looks surprised as Gordon continue to stare at him...
...AND GORDON SOCKS HIM IN THE JAW! The ref rings the bell!
"HOLY CRAP! Gordon just decked Wolfgang right in the mouth out of nowhere!" Church stated.
"WHAT THE HELL?! What is Gordon thinking?! Is he stupid or something?!" Sarge questioned.
"Gordon ain't going to be intimidated by Wolfgang, not after all he's been through in his life!" Church stated. "And this match is underway!"
Gordon picked up Wolfgang and began laying a flurry of rights to the face of Wolfgang. The Bully was backed up into a corner, trapped as Gordon continued to hammer away at him. Wolfgang tried to cover up to no avail, and was soon dropped into a sitting position in the corner. Gordon began to stomp Wolfgang to hell for a few moments until the ref pulled him away. Gordon went back to Wolfgang and picked him up before whipping him into the corner. Wolfgang staggered out of it and into a clothesline from Gordon. Gordon picked up Wolfgang and lifted him onto his shoulder, and hit a Powerslam on him! Gordon bounced off the ropes and nailed a Jumping Knee Drop across the face of Wolfgang!
"Gordon is just dominating Woflgang right now!" Church stated. "The Bully has gotten no offense in whatsoever!"
"But knowing Wolfgang, that may change very soon!" Sarge said.
Gordon picked up Wolfgang once more on his shoulder, and hit a Shoulder Breaker across the knee! Gordon held onto Wolfgang, stood up, and nailed an Emerald Flowsion on the Bully! Wolfgang rolled over to a corner and slowly stood up near it. Gordon sized up Wolfgang and ran at him, but Wolfgang sidestepped him, causing Gordon to crash into corner chest-first. He backed out of it, and Wolfgang grabbed his head and hit a Rear Chancery Backbrekaer on him! Gordon held his back in pain as the Bully composed himself before glaring angrily at Gordon. Freeman got to his knees, but that when Wolfgang kicked him in the skull! Wolfgang then dropped down and began hammering Gordon with vicious rights!
"Oh man, Wolfgang's in control, and he is NOT happy how the match started off!" Church stated.
"And Gordon is going to pay for it right now!" Sarge said.
Wolfgang laid in right after right to Gordon before grabbing the throat of Gordon and began choking him! Wolfgang had a snarl and shouted "You think you're so tough?! I'll show you tough!" The ref told Wolfgang to break it, and the Bully did, standing up and stomping Gordon in the gut. He picked up and whipped him into the ropes, catching him on the way back with a Sidewalk Slam! Cover! 1...2...Gordon kicks out! Wolfgang picked up and quickly nailed a Snake Eyes on Gordon in the corner! Wolfgang then bounced off the ropes...
...and hits a VICIOUS Spear on Gordon!
"Damn! What Spear from Wolfgang!" Church exclaimed.
"Gordon is broken in two ladies and gentleman!" Sarge stated.
Wolfgang covers Gordon!

Gordon kicks out!
Wolfgang picked up Gordon and pushed him into a corner, and once again began choking him! After some trash talk, Wolfgang let go and began ramming his shoulder into Gordon's gut about four times before pulling him out of the corner by the arm, and into a Back Body Drop! Wolfgang walked over to the downed Gordon and dropped an elbow across the heart. Wolfgang stood up and landed yet another Elbow Drop! Wolfgang repeated this motion five more times before picking Gordon and dropping him with another clothesline! Wolfgang taunted the fans who booed in response before picking up Gordon and placing him in the corner. Wolfgang sneered at Gordon before backing up a bit, and then running forward...
...GORDON CAUGHT HIM WITH A SIDE SLAM OUT OF THE CORNER!
"Gordon pulls a page out of Samoa Joe's playbook and gives himself an opening!" Church said.
"And the Bully needs to shut down that opening before it's too late!" Sarge stated.
Gordon rested in the corner for a bit as Wolfgang slowly got back up, and ran and hit a Big Boot to the Bully's face! Wolfgang stumbled to his feet and Gordon grabbed him and whipped him into a corner. Gordon ran and nailed a Corner Clothesline on him, and allowed Wolfgang to stumbled forward. Gordon bounced off the ropes and nailed a Knee Smash to the temple of Wolfgang! The Bully was dazed as Gordon picked him up in the Oklahoma Slam position. He walked around with Wolfgang in his arms...
...but Wolfgang got out his hold and quickly nailed Gordon with a Reverse STO! Wolfgang got up and began stomping on the back of Gordon mercilessly before picking him up. He nailed a few Forearms to his face before whipping him into the ropes. Wolfgang went for a Back Body Drop, but Gordon stopped in front of him and tried to set up for a Resonance Cascade! Wolfgang slipped away and tried to run at him, but Gordon sidestepped him. Wolfgang bounced off the ropes...
...AND INTO A ONE-HANDED SPINEBUSTER FROM GORDON!
"Gordon just planted Wolfgang onto his back!" Church said. "Gordon is rolling here!"
"Damn, Gordon is somehow taking it to the Bully!" Sarge said.
Gordon picked up Wolfgang and lifted him up above his head in an impressive Military Press. Woflgang suddenly struggles and lands behind Gordon, turning the Valve character around and planting him with a DDT! Wolfgang covers!

GORDON KICKS OUT!
Wolfgang looked angry at the kick out before backing up away from Gordon. He stalked the Valve character as he slowly stood up, and Gordon slowly turned around...
...Wolfgang went for the Wolf's Kick (Brogue Kick)...
...GORDON DUCKED IT! Wolfgang stumbled about as Gordon bounced off the ropes. Wolfgang turned around...
...AND EATS A BICYCLE KICK!
"Gordon dodges Wolfgang's Bicycle Kick and hits one of his own!" Church stated.
"My God, I can't believe Gordon may actually win!" Sarge exclaimed,

WOLFGANG KICKS OUT!
"No, it's not victory for Gordon! But Gordon actually managed to get a nearfall on the Bully! That's something else!" Church said.
Gordon picked up Wolfgang once more and tried again for the Resonance Cascade, but Wolfgang suddenly executed a Double Leg Takedown! Wolfgang tried for a Boston Crab, but Gordon used his legs to push the Bully away! Both got up to their feet and Wolfgang once more tried for a Wolf's Kick! Gordon caught the foot much to Wolfgang's surprise, and Gordon grabbed Wolfgang by the throat, and hit a Leg-Trap Chokeslam! Gordon then picked up Wolfgang, lifted him up, and nailed a Swinging Side Slam! Gordon signaled for the end much to the delight of the fans!
"Gordon says the end is near! Could Gordon actually pull of the upset?!" Church said.
Gordon picked up Wolfgang and set him up once more for the Resonance Cascade...
...WOLFGANG SUDDENLY LOW BLOWS HIM!
"OH WHAT THE HELL?!" Church said.
"THE BULLY JUST BLATANTLY LOW-BLOWED GORDON!" Sarge exclaimed.
The ref instantly called the bell for the disqualification as Gordon held his lower regions in pain, but Wolfgang didn't care. Wolfgang backed up with a snarl on his face...
...AND WOLF'S KICKS GORDON!
"AND THE DAMN WOLF'S KICK TO FREEMAN!" Church stated. "GORDON MAY HAVE HAD HIS HEAD TAKEN OFF!"
"WOLFGANG ESTABLISHES HIS DOMINANCE PEOPLE!" Sarge said.
The crowd was booing viciously as Wolfgang stared down at the downed Gordon with a sneer before placing his foot on Gordon's chest and raising an arm in triumph, shouting "THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU CROSS ME!"
"Wolfgang couldn't let the rookie Gordon get a true victory over him in his first match back, so he disqualified himself!" Church said. "And then he took Gordon down with a damn Wolf's Kick!"
"Gordon may have technically won, but Wolfgang is standing tall in the end, and that's all that matters to the Bully!" Sarge said.
Wolfgang kicked Gordon in the head before exiting the ring and go up the ramp. Gordon came to and saw Wolfgang as he left for the backstage area, his eyes narrowed at the retreating Bully.
"No doubt Gordon didn't like how that turned out at all. Wolfgang may need to watch his back in the future." Church said.
"Well Wolfgang doesn't care, because this Bully knows he can put down Gordon no matter what!" Sarge said.
"Well, we'll see about-Wait a minute! I'm getting word there's a fight going on backstage! Our cameras are there, we're going to see it now!" Church said.
The scree goes to the backstage area...WHERE WE SEE FALCO TACKLE DOWN STARFORCE MEGAMAN! Falco brings down hard rights to the face of Starforce as he tries to cover up as best as he can from them! Falco picks up the Megaman and shouts in his face "THIS IS FOR FOX, YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Falco then threw Starforce over a nearby buffet table, and Starforce crashed to the concrete ground. Falco went to the table as Starforce stumbled to his feet, and Falco reached over the table for him... AND GETS A SILVER PLATTER TO THE SKULL FROM STARFORCE! Falco staggered away and Starforce leaped onto and dived off the table onto Falco! He began delivering hard rights to Falco's skull before lifting his head and slamming it against the concrete floor! He picked up Falco and shouted "PREPARE TO JOIN FOX IN THE HOSPITAL!" Starforce tried for the Giga Crush but Falco pushed him back-first into the concrete wall! Falco then banged Starforce's head against the wall three times, causing him to fall to his knees! Falco began to club the back of Starforce relentlessly, until Starforce tackled him and the two knocked down another buffet table! The two continued to fight until security suddenly came in and managed to seperate the two! The two were held back as much as they could be as they shouted obscenities at each other as Force came in between them, a big frown on his face.
"ENOUGH!" Force shouted, catching both of their attentions. "I...will not...TOLERATE THIS RIGHT NOW! I'm still pissed off over what occurred with Bowser and Mario earlier, so I am not in the mood for this! You two want to beat the crap out of each other? Falco, you want to take down Starforce for what he did to Fox? And Starforce, you want payback on Falco for costing you the Royal Rumble? Well, you two are going to fight each other legally, because at Last Stand, it will be Falco Lombardi vs Starforce Megaman!"
The crowd cheered as Starforce and Falco stared at Force for a moment before nodding at him.
"Good, glad you both agree. And I EXPECT this match to happen, you two." Force stated seriously. "Which means no injuring one another before the match, and NO low-blowing right as the match begins! This match will happen, and it will actually be a match! Do I make myself clear?" Falco and Starforce nodded. "Good, now get them out of here, I rather not get more angry as it is." Falco and Starforce were then carried away by security away from each other, despite a bit of their protesting as they wanted to get their hands on each other. As they left, Force heaved a big sigh.
"This has been a somewhat frustrating night so far. Hopefully, things get better as it goes on. Seriously, I don't like being angry."
"Falco and Starforce tried to beat the crap out of each other, but Force was not going to deal with it after what happened earlier." Church said. "And now we have a match made for Last Stand: Falco Lombardi vs Starforce Megaman."
"Even I admit that that will be personal as hell, but I think Falco is going to be done soon!" Sarge stated. "Starforce took out Chief and Fox, and Falco will join them soon!"
"Starforce truly is one dangerous individual, but Falco is fueled by a desire to make Starforce suffer for what he has done!" Church said. "I don't know if that will help Falco to victory, but it will damn sure cause Starforce to have the fight of his life!"
"But come on dirty Blue, what chance does Falco really have against Starforce? Falco has dug his own damn grave, no doubt about it." Sarge said.
("My Town" by Hollywood Undead)
The crowd went absolutely wild with cheers as Naruto Uzumaki came out, a big excited grin on his face. He played to the crowd a bit, making them cheering even louder before pumping his fist through the air and running down the ramp and sliding into the ring. He ran across the ring and bounced off the ropes several times before pumping his fist through the air once more and held it high, the crowd cheering him the whole time.
"The following is an Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match set for one fall! Introducing first, from Konoha Village, weighing in at 230 lbs., Naruto Uzumaki!"
"Well, right now, we are about to determine the second person to go into the Elimination Chamber in three weeks!" Church stated. "And Naruto looks to take that spot home tonight, and win the World Title once and for all!"
"Well this knucklehead Naruto is going to fail just like he did last night!" Sarge proclaimed. "Ben was right, Naruto hasn't done anything of worth as of lately! He's yesterday's news!"
"Well, Naruto can put himself back on track big time with a win here!" Church stated. "The Elimination Chamber is a chance for Naruto to once again become big in UCA!"
("Metalingus" by Alter Bridge)
The crowd let out very loud boos as smoke appeared on the stage, and once the lyrics were spoken, Scourge came out wearing his sunglasses and jacket, a big frown on his face. He glared out to the crowd before making his way down the ramp. He stopped in the middle and threw his hands up in rock signs, green fireworks going off behind him. Once done, Scourge ran to the ring and slid into it. He stood up and hanged off the ropes, throwing his hand up in a rock sign as he scowled at the crowd.
"And his opponent, from Moebius, weighing in at 225 lbs., "The King of the World" Scourge the Hedgehog!"
"Scourge is in one FOUL mood, and it's obvious why this is the case!" Church said. "Scourge fully believed he would win the Royal Rumble with the #30 spot in his hands, but Scourge was the second-to-last person eliminated! He was very pissed, and as a result, Speared Crash and Matt out of their boots! And this pissed off hedgehog looks to bounce back by going to the Elimination Chamber!"
"What ticks me off here is that Scourge is Mobian, but all these damn Mobians are still booing him!" Sarge stated. "How could they hate their own kind like this?! Gah, they are all just a bunch of Grifs!"
"Well, maybe Scourge is Mobian, but this crowd doesn't like Scourge or how he does things regardless!" Church stated. "But Scourge has never cared what the crowd has thought of him, and it ain't starting now!"
Scourge took off his glasses and jacket and threw them to the outside. The ref checked to see if they were ready and rang the bell. The two slowly met in the ring and looked to go for a lock-up, but Scourge instead caught Naruto with a kick. Scourge then laid a few rights to Naruto's skull and backed him up into the ropes. Scourge whipped him into the adjacent ropes and leapfrogged over him as he came back. Scourge tried for a clothesline, but Naruto held onto the ropes before bouncing off them. Scourge ran at Naruto, but Naruto caught him with a foot to the jaw. Naruto ran and hit a Running Bulldog on Scourge! Scourge stumbled up to his feet and Naruto grabbed him and hits a Snap Suplex on him followed by a cover! 1...2...Kick out! Naruto picked up Scourge, but Scourge suddenly kicked him in the knee, buckling him. Scourge bounced off the ropes, and Naruto shot up and caught him with a Snap Powerslam! Cover! 1...2...Kick out!
"Naruto has taken the early lead here, but that Scourge can take advantage of anything at a moment's notice!" Church said.
"Exactly, which is one reason why he is the King of the World!" Sarge said.
Naruto picked up Scourge and quickly hits a Belly-to-Belly Suplex on the hedgehog. Naruto picked up Scourge once more and whipped him into a corner, and quickly hit a Corner Clothesline. Scourge stumbled out of it as Naruto bounced off the ropes to Scourge, and Scourge caught him with a Dropkick to the knee. Naruto stumbled about, allowing Scourge to nail a Swinging Neckbreaker! Scourge covers! 1...2...Kick out! Scourge picked up Naruto and lifted him and nailed a Gutbuster across his knee! Naruto held his stomach in pain as Scourge bounced off the ropes and nailed a Senton! Scourge with a cover! 1...2...Kick out! Scourge nailed a few rights to the skull of Naruto before picking him up and nailing a Half-Nelson Bulldog on him!
"As we thought, Scourge has taken control of this match! He is beating on Naruto here!" Church said.
"Of course, was there ever any doubt?" Sarge questioned.
Naruto rolled over to the ropes and Scourge hits a Baseball Slide, sending him out of the ring to the floor. Scourge slid out of the ring and picked up Naruto and slammed his across the barricade! He then whipped Naruto into the steel steps! Scourge grabbed Naruto's and smashed them across the steps three times before throwing him back into the ring. Scourge got on the apron and climbed the turnbuckle, waiting until Naruto got onto his fet. Scourge dived off for a Crossbody...
...Naruto moved out of the way! Scourge crashed onto the mat stomach-first, and Naruto caught him in an Oklahoma Roll Pin!
"Oklahoma Roll! Naruto could have him!" Church said.

Both met got to the feet and Scourge went for a clothesline, but Naruto ducked it. Naruto bounced off the ropes and hit a Flying Shoulder Block on Scourge, which was followed by a Hip Toss!

Scourge scrambled back to his feet, but was taken down with a Drop Toe Hold by Naruto! Naruto grabbed Scourge by the waist, dead-lifted him off his feet, and nailed a Release German Suplex on Scourge!
"Damn, some power by Naruto, lifting Scourge off his feet and dropping him on his head and neck!" Church stated.
Scourge held his head and neck and Naruto picked him up, nailing him with a Vertical Suplex on him. Naruto held onto Scourge and got back to his feet, and nailed a second Vertical Suplex on him! Naruto got back up with Scourge in tow and nailed a third Vertical Suplex on him, ala' Three Amigos! The crowd roars in approval as Naruto points to the sky and climbs the nearest corner. Once on top, Naruto dives off...
...SCOURGE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY! Naruto misses the Frog Splash and crashes stomach-first! Naruto stumbles to his feet and turns around...AND GETS A BIG BOOT TO THE SKULL FROM SCOURGE!
"The tribute to Eddie Guerrero DID NOT work and Scourge boots Naruto's head off!" Church stated.
"Scourge just way too smart for the ninja idiot to keep up with!" Sarge stated.

Scourge picked up Naruto and hooked him up for the Raging Scourge, but Naruto spun out of it and tried for a clothesline. Scourge ducked it and kicked Naruto in the gut as he turned around, and plants him with a DDT! Scourge rolled away and stood near a corner, and crouched down, stalking Naruto as he chanted "Spear...Spear...Spear..." The ninja slowly stood up and turned around, and Scourge ran at him...

Naruto grabbed his waist, and pushed him into the corner...

"KYUUBI LOCK! Naruto's got the ankle and is wrenching on it like mad!" Church exclaimed.
"Oh no! Please don't tap Scourge! Please! It would just suck so damn much!" Sarge exclaimed.
Scourge cried out in pain as Naruto wrenched at the ankle, trying to get Scourge to tap out here! The crowd was begging for a tapout as Scourge shook his head frantically! After twenty seconds, Scourge raised his hand up, teasing a tap out...
...SCOURGE SUDDENLY ROLLS THROUGH! Scourge has got Naruto rolled up in a pin!
"ROLL UP! ROLL UP!" Church exclaimed. "SCOURGE'S GOING TO STEAL ONE!"

"DAMMIT! NARUTO SOMEHOW KICKS OUT! WHAT KIND OF MESSED UP WORLD IS THIS?!" Sarge exclaimed.
Both men scrambled to their feet and Naruto grabbed Scourge, but the hedgehog suddenly poked Naruto in the eye! The crowd was livid as Naruto held his eye in pain, the ref admomishing Scourge for the tactic. But Scourged didn't care as he bounced off the ropes...

"DAMMIT! SPEAR OFF THE DAMN POKE TO THE EYE!" Church shouted.
"Naruto..." Sarge began.

"You Just Got Sarge'd!" Sarge finished.
("Metalingus" by Alter Bridge)
"Here is your winner, "The King of the World" Scourge the Hedgehog!"
The crowd booed loudly as Scourge got off of Naruto, his scowl ever present as the ref raised his hand in victory. Scourge quickly snatched it away from the ref and climbed a nearby corner, pointing to the Final Clash sign "THAT IS WHERE I AM GOING PEOPLE!" The crowd only booed ever louder as this proclamation as Scourge continued to scowl.
"Well, Scourge is going to the Elimination Chamber whether we like it or not!" Church stated. "And after his failure last night, I'd say that Scourge is very determined to win that Chamber!"
"What do you expect?" Sarge questioned. "Scourge wants that Final Clash main event badly! And Last Stand is his LAST chance to get it! So Scourge will do all he can to get it!"
"Well Scourge is definitely going to be one dangerous man inside the Chamber, that's for sure!" Church said.
Scourge got off the turnbuckle and saw Naruto slowly getting onto his feet. With his scowl ever present, he waited for Naruto to fully stand up...AND THEN SPEARS HIM ONCE MORE! The crowd is livid as Scourge stands tall over Naruto, raising his hands in rock signs before exiting the ring.
"Dammit all to hell! Scourge Speared Naruto again for no damn reason whatsoever!" Church said.
"Oh, there was a reason, dirtbag! It was to send a message to everyone else in the Chamber: he's coming for the World Title!" Sarge stated.
"Well if that's the case, everyone else who will be competing there better watch out for Scourge or else!" Church said.
The screen changed to the locker room area, where we see Mario pacing back and forth in absolute worry and fear, holding the World Title in one hand.
"Dammit, this can't be happening, this can't be happening..." Mario muttered to himself. "This was supposed to be my night of triumph, my night of glory as I envisioned it to be. I was supposed to go to Last Stand to defend against Bowser, and then retain against him, then go to Final Clash, and defeat that Digi-chump Matt! It was supposed to be that way! But thanks to that damn Fox...Goddammit, this is a nightmare! This can't be the end! It just can't be! My World Title reign can't end like this after what I went through with Sonic last night! IT JUST CAN'T!"
The door was heard opening and Mario snapped his head to the new occupant. "DIDN'T ANYBODY TEACH YOU HOW TO DAMN KNOCK?! I NEED TIME TO THINK!"
Luigi was shown on the screen, shock and fear in his eyes. "B-Brother...i-it's me, Luigi. No need to get so angry with me...I haven't even done anything to you..."
Mario seethed in anger before slowly calming down and sighing. "Sorry Luigi...I'm just stressed out right now. I had a perfect plan, and it was all going so well, but that stupid Fox went and screwed everything up! Now I got to defend my World Title tonight against Bowser, which I am totally unprepared for, and I am still recovering from the Last Man Standing Match! And if that wasn't bad enough, if i get past Bowser, I got a damn Elimination Chamber to get through, a Chamber YOU failed to get into! My title reign is in jeopardy here dammit! I could lose my title one day after surviving Sonic, lose it just like that after all I went through to keep this with me! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME RIGHT NOW?!"
"Brother, brother, I KNOW what is happening with you I do." Luigi tried to assure him. "I know that it's a travesty, I really do. But Mario...you've survived this before. You've had people continuously tell you your title reign here and there, especially when it seemed like you were destined to! But you managed to always walk out with the World Title regardless! You managed to keep the LONGEST REIGN with the UCA World Title alive, no matter what! You keep proving that you are the Greatest Champion Ever, despite how those damn people feel! Which is what you will do tonight and at Last Stand! Odds may be against you tonight against Bowser, and at Last Stand, but I know you will come up with something to make sure that you keep the World Title around your waist and with the Mushroom Kingdom! You wouldn't be Super Mario if you weren't!"
Mario took a moment to digest these words slowly before gaining a small smirk on his face. "Yeah...you're right Luigi. You are damn right. I've managed to survive this long against stacked odds before, and I will damn sure do it again! I'm heading to Final Clash as World Heavyweight Champion, no matter what that Fox tries to do otherwise! I will worry about Last Stand when it's assured I get there. For now, I need to think about how to deal with Bowser tonight...he won't be easy...he's a monster, and he's definitely hungry. But..." Mario chuckled darkly. "I've managed to outwit him and beat him at every turn before...I can damn sure do it again. Whatever I think of in the end...will make sure Bowser does not walk out with MY World Heavyweight Title. I guaran-damn-tee it!"
"Mario is worried about his title defense tonight, and I can't blame him!" Church said. "He's got to deal with a hungry monster in Bowser just a day after a brutal Last Man Standing Match!"
"Luckily, Luigi was there to give him THE ULTIMATE PEP TALK!" Sarge stated. "Seriously, Luigi needs to get an award for 'Best Pep-Talker EVER!' because that was just inspiring!"
"Well, Mario may need that confidence boost, because he will need anything he can get to survive Bowser." Church stated. "To be honest, I don't know who I want to win. It's like choosing between Hitler and Hades...you lose no matter what."
"Well screw you, dirty Blue! I think we win no matter who walks out champion! If Mario retains, then the Greatest World Title Reign Ever continues. IF Bowser wins, then he becomes the ultimate monster champion! It's a win-win!" Sarge stated.
"Yeah, of course you would think that..." Church muttered.
("Resurrected" by Peroxywhy?gen)
The crowd exploded into loud, thunderous cheers as the music played, blue lights flashing all over the arena. Once the lyrics began to play, Matt Ishida came out to the thunderous ovation from the crowd. He looked out towards the fan for a few moments before nodding at them and shouting "I AM RESURECTED!" Matt made his way down the ramp and entered the ring, climbing a corner and pointing to the Final Clash with great vigor.
"Ladies and gentleman, please welcome the UCA Royal Rumble Winner, Matt Ishida!"
"Don't adjust your TV sets people, what you are seeing is NOT an illusion!" Church said. "It really is Matt Ishida, who made his shocking return to Fiction Wrestling last night at Royal Reckoning, entering at #2 in the Royal Rumble Match! And more shocking...he actually WON the whole thing! That's right, he went the damn distance and lasted a time of 63 minutes, 22 seconds to pull it all off! The second longest time lasted in the UCA Rumble!"
"I'm still trying to come to terms that this actually reality and not a sick dream induced by you dirty Blues!" Sarge said. "In any case, since Matt won the Rumble, he's going to the main event of Final Clash to challenge for the World Heavyweight Title! It's something else!"
"Matt has talked about being resurrected on Twitter quite a bit, and he has said that he will tell his story of why he was gone, why he came back, all that tonight!" Church stated. "And that time people...has finally come!"
Matt grabbed a mic from the ringside crew and stood in the middle of the ring, looking out to the crowd as he soaked in the tremendous reaction he was getting. He went to speak, but stopped when the crowd started to chant "Welcome Back! Welcome Back! Welcome Back!" Matt just smirked at the crowd reaction as the chant died down and Matt finally spoke.
"Thank you for the reception, people. It's good to be back." Matt stated; the crowd cheered loudly at this statement. "After being gone for God knows how long - I actually lost track of time with that one - I came back to the Fiction Wrestling scene, and I don't think I could have done it any grander fashion! I won the Royal Rumble Match here in UCA. I lasted over an hour to do so. And as such, I have earned myself a golden ticket to that..." Matt pointed to the Final Clash sign. "Final Clash, UCA's WrestleMania. I now have a main event World Title Match on that grand stage, and by God, I will win that title. For this is my resurrection, people, my revival, and I will not be stopped no matter what! But you are all asking the questions: Where have I been for so long? Why did I leave and cut myself off from all communications, even my friends? And why did I come back? Well...you're going to get the answers here and now. I am not going to lead you on, give you cryptic hints that you can't understand, or simply remain silent for whatever reason. No, I will tell you everything you want to hear right now because I need to get this off my chest, I need to tell my story so that way I can finally be able to move on with my career and life."
Matt took a deep breath, as if trying to figure out how to say it. Eventually, he spoke. "Well, it all began for me back at the X-Over PPV, Clash of the Titans. It was Tai vs Davis in a Ladder Match to determine the Undisputed Leader of Digimon, and Davis had destroyed our possessions, taken our Digivices, and injured my brother TK. I was so angry at Davis for injuring my brother, for doing such horrible things, that I became so focused on helping Tai beat that bastard. So much, that I had neglected in being the boyfriend of Sora, who was my girlfriend at the time. And when Tai lost...I just got so angry, because I blamed myself not only for Davis winning, but also for TK reaggravating the injury he had...And I took it out on Sora and Tai. I called Tai a coward and that he didn't deserve to be Undisputed Leader of Digimon. I told Sora that it was her fault that Tai lost the match. Needless to say...I said a LOT of stupid things to them." Matt took a moment to gather his thoughts. "In the end, I didn't really change much from my first days in the Digital World, what with not being able to open up to other. Even when I told Sora about how I blamed myself, I already did the damage. I had continued to push Sora away from me, to push her away from our relationship. When I look back on it now, I realize now that our relationship was doomed to fail, because I didn't spend enough time with her for some damn reason, instead always going to my band or training. God, I don't know what I was thinking there. Eventually, everything I did led to one thing...Sora falling in love with Tai, or maybe realizing the feelings she always had for him. And in the end...she left me to go be with him."
Matt dropped the mic to his side for a minute, trying to gather himself, the crowd silent as they knew they couldn't speak during this emotional time. Eventually, Matt spoke once more. "That...that fucking hurt, you know. It really...really hurt. Because despite my mistakes, I truly did love Sora, and seeing her go over to my best friend Tai, after such a long relationship...it hurt, and it broke my heart. And combined that with Davis becoming Undisputed Leader of Digimon, self-blaming myself for his victory, and TK reaggravating his injury...it was...it was just too damn much for me to handle, to take. So I took my ball...and I went home. God knows how long I even stayed there cooped up in my home, wallowing in self-blame and sorrow. I was so angry with so many people...I was angry at Davis, angry at Digivolution, angry at Tai, angry at Sora...and especially angry at myself. That's why I refused to reply to anyone, especially my friends. I just couldn't handle such a thing. My heart was hurt, my mind depressed, and I just couldn't speak to either Tai or Sora or any of the other Digidestined after what happened with all of us. I sat there, in a chair in a dark corner, just crushed by feelings of depression, frustration, and just flat-out sorrow. I didn't know...I didn't know if I would ever come out of it, because nothing I heard Sora or Tai say on the voicemails ever got me to snap out of it. I felt like I was doomed to forever feel like this, forgotten by the world, as I 'should be'..."
"...but then I got a certain call from a certain somebody. An owner that goes by the name of Force the Fox. He called me, and left a voicemail about how he wanted me to come to UCA, and told me that I could become a big name here. Needless to say, I was surprised that he even remembered me. I thought I was forgotten, but at the time, I was still too damn depressed to even consider it, so I didn't reply as usual. But Force...he persisted. And when he persisted, he didn't remain calm and collected, no he got more and more frustrated every time I didn't answer...until it came to an explosive head in one call. He exploded in anger, and hit me with a damn dose of hard truth, a dose that I SORELY needed. I was taken back by what I heard from the Fox, and by the time he finished...the wheels turned in my head. The words of his were circulating in my brain as I slowly digested them, as I thought over everything he had told me. And by the time I had gone over everything he had said, I came to a conclusion...he was right. He...was so...damn...right! I may have been hurt, I may have felt sorrow and pain, but the real me, the true me would never let myself be kept down by what happened, would never be some secluded, bitter guy! No, the real me would stand up on my own two feet, fight through it all, and move forward like I have always done! Force was right...I had to be a man and suck it up. Things didn't go my way, but that didn't mean I had to beat myself up over it continuously! I realized that I could no longer basically let what happened with me, Sora, and Tai dictate how I lived, how I would always feel! I could no longer allow my life to become some hollow deal filled with nothing but depression and anger over one event that went bad for me! If Tai and Sora were able to revive their careers in XCW, make new lives for themselves despite what happened to them in the past...THEN I KNEW I COULD DO THE DAMN SAME! So I called Force, accepted his offer, and signed with UC freakin' A!"
Matt had an intense, determined look on his face as he continued. "Now...I am still a bit upset over what happened with me, Tai, and Sora, I mean...who can't be upset for a good damn while about losing the girl they love to your best friend? Trust me, it hurts like a bitch. But you know what...I am done letting it dictate me. I am not going to let what happened with us consume me anymore, and let it state how I should feel about my friends! I am accepting what has happened, and moving on with my life! Tai and Sora...if you are listening to this, know that despite some lingering upset feelings, I am happy for the both of you, and I hope you two continue to lead happy and prosperous lives and careers." The crowd applauded at that heartfelt statement before Matt continued. "When I agreed to Force's offer, I created a Twitter for myself and talked about how I was going to be resurrected when I returned. And people, that talk wasn't just figurative, I truly damn meant I was going to be resurrected! Because I am leaving behind my past! I am leaving behind all my failures, all my bad times, all those dark feelings, I am leaving behind my past life, and starting anew here. I am starting with a clean slate here in UCA, and trust me, I am going to carve MANY good things on that slate. I got a new leash on life, I got a chance at redemption, I got the opportunity to create a new life for me, a life that I can be happy with and truly enjoy! Throughout this time, you will witness the resurrection of Matt Ishida..and the resurrection will be completed at Final Clash!"
"Now, I even surprised myself when I won the Royal Rumble last night, but I also knew that with my victory, there came the ultimate opportunity of fully establishing the new me! To establish my new career and life here in UCA, by winning the World Heavyweight Title on one of the biggest stages imaginable in Fiction Wrestling. And after what Davis did on Animated..." The crowd immediately booed thunderously at the reference. "Yeah, I figured you would all know about that. After what Davis did, I am even more determined to win that title, because I need to do my part in restoring honor and pride to the name of Digimon! To me, this isn't just a World Title shot, people. THIS IS A CHANCE FOR ME TO FINALLY BE RESURRECTED, IN BOTH MY CAREER AND MY LIFE! A CHANCE TO MAKE EVERYTHING I WENT THROUGH WORTH IT IN THE END! TO LEAVE BEHIND ALL THE BAD THINGS, AND CREATE SOMETHING GOOD FOR ME! AND DAMMIT, I WILL WIN THAT DAMN WORLD TITLE IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO! Now, I don't care who walks out of Last Stand and the Elimination Chamber as the champion! I don't care if I have to face Super Mario, Bowser, Crash Bandicoot, Scourge the Hedgehog, or anyone else at Final Clash! Because the result will the be the same regardless: Matt Ishida wins and becomes the new UCA World Heavyweight Champion! I am resurrected people, and I have never been more fired up, more passionate, more driven, more determined about anything in my goddamn life! So whoever walks out of that Chamber as champion, know this: there isn't a damn thing you can do to stop the result that is bound to happen! BECAUSE MATT FUCKIN' ISHIDA IS RESURRECTED, AND HE WILL NOT BE STOPPED NO MATTER WHAT YOU PUT IN FRONT OF HIM! AT FINAL CLASH, I WILL KICK YOUR ASS AND BECOME THE NEW UCA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! YOU CAN BET YOUR ASS ON THAT!"
("Resurrected" by Peroxywhy?gen)
Matt threw the mic to the side as the crowd was thunderous with cheers, and he exited the ring and walked up the ramp, a determined, passionate, yet also relieved look on his face.
"Holy crap...what a promo..." Church said. "Matt Ishida laid out his feelings tonight, his story, his past, he laid it all out, and has made it damn clear that he plans on becoming the World Champion at Final Clash."
"Even I must admit, that promo was truly something else, a storm of emotions and passion..." Sarge stated. "But talking is one thing; we'll have to see if Matt can truly pull it off at the grand stage."
"Matt no doubt needed to get that all off his chest, and now that he has, he is looking towards the future...towards the grand stage, Final Clash." Church said.
Matt walked up to as far as the stage and stopped there, his back turned to the audience. Slowly, he turned around to face the crowd, and looked up to the Final Clash sign still hanging from the ceiling. Slowly, but impactfully, he pointed towards the sign with a fire in his eyes not seen in him for a long time.
"Matt is pointing to that Final Clash sign...Matt is pointing to, what it is to him, his final resurrection." Church stated. "Matt will be damned if anything stops him now."
"This is so damn intense...I can hardly breath from the intensity!" Sarge stated. "There's no what can happen as Matt makes his way to the stage!"
"This is the Path to Final Clash people. We know where Matt is going as he walks it." Church said. "Question is: where is everyone else going to head?"
A/N: And here is the first chapter of UCA after the amazing PPV known as Royal Reckoning! I really wanted to do this chapter as it not only had me reveal why Bowser did what he did, but it also had me do Matt's return promo, which was a lot of damn fun to write, and something I wanted to do for a good while! And we have ourselves an Elimination Chamber at Last Stand, with two participants already decided, and the return of Wolfgang in UCA! And we have a special World Title Match between Mario and Bowser. Can Mario survive the monster Bowser in his current condition? We shall see.
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter of UCA man! I truly hope that you all did! If you have any suggestions for me concerning UCA, please let me know via PM! Make sure to leave a review as they are appreciated! Until next time folks! Bye!
