UCA: Universal Character Association Chapter 33: Monday Night Flame Week 9 Part 2, a Wrestling + Cartoon X-overs Crossover fanfic

Universal Character Association: Week 9

We come back from commercial break (yes we have those), and we see Fox walking from the back having returned to the ring, an intense look on his face. He suddenly stopped in his tracks as he came across...Krystal. They stared at each other for the longest time, neither one speaking a word...until Krystal ran to him and wrapped his arms around his neck and hugged him tightly, which he returned in kind.

"...I can't believe it's you...I really can't believe it. The letter you wrote...what it said about you coming back and letting me know...I didn't know if it was a trick or not. Someone playing a cruel trick...I had to make sure it was real. See, if it was really true...and here you are..." Krystal said.

"...I'm real, Krystal. I'm as real as real can be. I'm back, and trust me, I'm not leaving again. And no one is saying otherwise." Fox replied.

"FOX! FOX!" Simmons shouted as he ran into the scene, Krystal and Fox turning to him. "I can't believe it's you! I mean, Sarge said your brains were mush after what Starforce did to you! And I full-heartedly agree with him! ...SORRY SIR! Anyways, you just SHOCKED the world! You returned and just screwed over The Gaming Killer! You're back in UCA against all odds! What are you going to do NOW?!" Simmons asked as he held the mic to Fox.

"...Just this..." Fox stated before turning to the camera with a hard look. "...Starforce Megaman...GEO STELAR...I'm going to be in that ring next week...and I want your ass out there AS WELL when I am! I'm going to have a little...talk...with you, and I think you might want to hear what I have to say. And considering what just happened, I doubt you won't show up. I'll see you in seven days, Stelar..."

Fox then walked away with Krystal, leaving Simmons just by himself before the camera changed scenes...

The camera is now showing another area backstage, where we Jason Krueger himself, Intercontinental Title on his shoulder. An unhinged look on his face as he ran his hands through his hair, looking up at the camera with a crazed look in his eye.

"You know...I don't think people know, hehe...just how important this title is to me." Jason said, twitching every second as he held the title tightly. "The UCA Intercontinental Title...my first title EVER in Fiction Wrestling. Oh, I remember how the first time I won this title...oh, what a sweet memory. Breaking Cloud Strife's itty bitty neck like a TWIG...that was FUUUNNN...hehehe. And that...was the catalyst...for EVERYTHING...everything, yes." Jason said as he tapped his fingers on his title methodically. "And what do I mean by catalyst? ...This title...it led to EVERYTHING I HAVE in Fiction Wrestling! Being UCA Intercontinental Champion...it led me to becoming ACW Hardcore Champion, the FIRST-EVER! Even with how that company's "boss" is towards me and the RR, he KNEW that I was too good and TOO MUCH OF AN INSANE, TALENTED BASTARD TO JUST BURY! AND I'VE BEEN DEMOLISHING EVERY MAN HE'S PUT IN FRONT OF ME! ...This title...led to me becoming NCW Tag Team Champions with David Williams...the Frozen Asylum...oooohhhh, has that been such fun... It even led to PCUW being FORCED to RECOGNIZE THE REBELLION...THE VIRUS REBELLION! AND WE WILL SOON TAKE THE PCUW TAG TEAM TITLES FROM CULMER AND DOMINIC AND LEAVE THEM MANGLED AND UNRECOGNIZABLE!" Jason panted heavily for a bit...before he managed to continue. "This title...even lead to me...becoming a WORLD CHAMPION IN CXWE! IT LED TO THAT! This title was the FIRST STEP in me becoming the FIRST AND ONLY Cross-Company Grand Slam Winner! THIS TITLE BEGAN IT ALL FOR ME! ALL OF IT! DON'T YOU ALL UNDERSTAND THAT?!"

Jason was now pulling at his hair hard, a disturbed look on his eyes as he held his title closely. "You all don't get it...you DON'T. This title...without it...I know that I wouldn't be ANYWHERE here in this business! All the titles I have...they are so important to me, every one of them...but this Intercontinental Title...it's SPECIAL to me for EVERY REASON I just said...so very special. And because of all that..." Jason looked at the camera, a wild look about him. "I will NEVER part with THIS title! I NEVER...WILL! It's MINE! It will ALWAYS BE MINE! And all those who want to take it WILL GET THEIR NECKS BROKEN! I'LL BREAK THEIR NECKS AND GORE THEM TO HELL! But...some people...just don't get that. Everywhere I go...I see hedgehogs...hedgehogs everywhere..." Jason looked around crazily, as if a man possessed. "...They won't stop coming...as if they want...MY Intercontinental Title...well they won't get it...they WON'T...they won't...and I shall keep this title at all costs...in the name of the Revolu-"

Jason stopped as his eyes caught something coming, and they subsequently widened...

...

...as Hope the Hedgehog came into the camera's view, the crowd cheering for him. Hope had a serious expression as he stared down Jason.

"You say that title will always be yours..." Hope began. "...but you know as well as I do, that last week, I had you BEAT. I had you down, and I was about to take the Intercontinental Title from you. And the ONLY reason that didn't happen was because Chaos came in and saved your ass only to get back at me for Last Stand. But it really gets to you, huh? That you were THIS close to losing your title...and only by someone wanting vengeance that you survived. But let me tell you this...I'm not letting you go. Not after I came so close to taking the gold, and not after you screwed me out of the Rumble Match because you were a sore loser about me eliminating you a month ago. Yeah, I remember that, so you better hold onto that title real tight...because I'm coming for it...and I'll pry it out of your hands no matter what."

"...No...no...no..." Jason chanted methodically, a paranoid look in his eye as he slowly backed up. "You LIE...you lie. You see, you don't get what I'm trying to say. You can't take what's mine...and if you come near it, I'll break you ne-"

Jason's talk was again interrupted as he backed up into somebody. He turned around...came face-to-face with SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG. Jason's eyes went wide as the hedgehog just stared down the IC Champ.

"Funny that Hope mentions Chaos and almost beating you...because that's what I almost did with you the night after Royal Reckoning." Shadow stated with a serious look at Jason. "I had you set up for the Chaos Nightmare, ready to plant you...only for that god-complex hedgehog to get in my way. You just seem to be lucky in that sort of area up to now, aren't you? Well your luck is about to run out...because considering I was about to BEAT YOU and you can't dispute that, and that I won alongside Hope at Last Stand...I think I should get an Intercontinental Title shot...don't YOU, Jason?"

Shadow simply narrowed his eyes at Jason, who was starting to twitch in almost erratic fashion. He slowly backed away, snapping his head at Hope who also stared at him seriously. Jason was snarling at this point, gripping his title with a white knuckle grip.

"You want a shot...? ...You...want...A SHOT?!" Jason breathed out angrily. "...You don't deserve to take what's mine...you aren't anything...you aren't ANYTHING! You're just...another victim. You hear me?! ANOTHER VICT-"

Jason AGAIN was interrupted as he AGAIN backed up into somebody, and he slowly turned around...

...and CHAOS THE HEDGEHOG was who he turned to face, a dark and snarling expression in his face as Jason stared him down.

"...You know...I've heard you constantly say it was MY FAULT that we lost at Last Stand because of my lack of tag match experience." Chaos said in a low tone, eyes narrowed. "...But if it was my fault we lost...then why was it YOU who got PINNED?! Answer me that...oh wait...you can't. You won't pin your failures on the God of Destruction...and I just realized something. I beat Shadow over there awhile ago, I pinned a FORMER WORLD CHAMPION, and I deserve something for that. So it's about time I cashed-in on the benefits of that victory, don't you? ...And your title...is looking VERY tempting nowadays..."

Chaos sneered at Jason, whose eyes had widened to saucers as he slowly backed away from Chaos. His head was now snapping between Hope, Shadow, and Chaos at an erratic pace, his mouth turning into more of a growl as if an animal trying to protect his food from others.

"You...you...you...CAN'T HAVE IT! YOU CAN'T HAVE THIS! IT'S MINE! AND LAY EVEN A FINGER ON IT, AND YOU'LL DIE! HEAR ME?! DIE! I'LL TAKE YOUR NECKS AND SNAP THEM! I'LL MAKE IT SO SURGERY CAN'T REPAIR THEM!" Jason shouted in a crazed fashion, beating his head with his fist. "YOU'LL HAVE TO KILL ME TO EVEN GET CLOSE TO MY TI-"

"Yo Jason."

"NOW WHAT?!" Jason shouted angrily as he turned around to face none other than Force the Fox, who held his hands up defensively.

"Woah, woah, take it easy there, tiger. I'm not out for a title shot, if that's what you thought." Force joked with a chuckle, but Jason was not amused.

"...What...do...you WANT?!" Jason snarled out.

"Well I was looking for you because I made a very important decision regarding the Intercontinental Title. Now you've been a pretty good champion, and as such, you definitely have a right to defend it at Final Clash. However...all THREE of these guys..." Force motioned to the trio of hedgehogs behind Jason. "...all have very good points as to why they should haven a title shot. And when you think about it...this whole thing can be traced back to when Chaos screwed Shadow over the night after Ragnarok...So I racked my brain around a bit before I finally came to a conclusion! ...Why not give them ALL a shot?! So Jason Krueger...YOU will face off against...

...

...Hope the Hedgehog...

...

...Shadow the Hedgehog...

...

...AND Chaos the Hedgehog!...

...

...in a Fatal 4-Way Match for the Intercontinental Championship at Final Clash!"

The crowd exploded into loud cheers as Jason's expression took a look of shock and horror, while Hope gained a confident grin on his face, Shadow simply nodded in approval at this, and Chaos gained a sick sneer on his face. Force meanwhile just smiled as he patted Jason on his shoulder.

"Sounds like an awesome title match for the big show, right? I'm sure you'll do just fine, Jason." Force chuckled. "After all, you are 'The Messiah of the Neckbreaker.' Man, am I pumped for Final Clash even more thanks to this! I'll see you around! Good luck at Final Clash!"

And with that, Force left the area, leaving a stunned Jason Krueger in his wake. The IC Champ simply stood there, holding his title...and he slowly turned around to meet the different expressions of his eventual opponents, but he could see the same thing in all of their eyes...their desire for HIS gold. Jason clutched his title even more, and he breathed heavily as he stared at them all.

"...YOU HEDGEHOGS WON'T HAVE THIS! YOU HEAR ME?! YOU HEDGEHOGS AREN'T HAVING IT! YOU NEVER, EVER WILL! NEVER! I AM THE MESSIAH OF THE NECKBREAKER! AND YOU CAN'T HAVE WHAT IS MINE!" Jason shouted before stomping away.

The three hedgehogs simply stared at the leaving Jason for a bit, until Chaos turned to Hope and Shadow, the latter two turning to him, and the self-proclaimed God just sneered at them. He gave a cutthroat gesture, and simply said "...Come Final Clash...you're all bowing down to ME..." before leaving. Hope and Shadow simply stared as he left before turning to each other.

"...You know...you kicked my head off last week..." Shadow pointed out.

"That was an accident, Shadow..." Hope retorted.

"...Well then...what I do at Final Clash, to Jason, Chaos, AND you...WON'T be an accident." Shadow proclaimed, a slight smirk on his face. "The Black Wind...is taking home the gold. Every man for himself."

Shadow then walked away, leaving only Hope, who only grew a smirk and said "...Game on."

"The following contest is an Open Challenge Triple Threat Match...and it is for...the INTERNET CHAMPIONSHIP!"

("I Am Perfection" by Beta Wolf)

The crowd gave out an approximate 50/50 cheer/boo reaction, and Johnny Cage came out with a cocky smirk on his face, wearing a vest with the "MK" and "RR" insignias on both sides, and the Internet Title on his face. He moved his legs a bit to get himself ready before running his hands through his hair, and threw them forward before making his way down the ramp. He went to a side of the ring and leaped onto the apron and entered through the ropes, but pulled his head out of the ring, sitting on the ropes as he looked at the crowd with a smirk. He entered the ring and climbed a turnbuckle, unhooking his belt and raising it high in the air.

"Introducing first, representing UCA and the Rookie Revolution, from Hollywood, California, weighing in at 231 lbs., he is the reigning, defending Internet Champion, Johnny Cage!"

"And here comes the Internet Champion, and look at his face! He's on one serious high since beating Colt for the Championship, and it only got higher when he was announced as being in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match! And now he's putting the title up for grabs in this Triple Threat, one that ANYONE can enter! He wants to make even more of an impact and he's willing to do what it takes!" Church stated.

"What a great Red champion! He's not afraid to put his title on the line in such odds! You won't find any dirty Blues wanting to do such things! Johnny Cage wants to make that championship prestigious, and he will do it no matter the dirtbag haters! Like I said, dirty Blues would only hurt themselves to get out of this!" Sarge said.

"Well Sarge, Johnny Cage may not seem too worried, but this won't be easy if he thinks it will be. But who will he face? It could be ANYBODY from ANY company!" Church proclaimed.

Cage leaned against the turnbuckle, his title over his shoulder, smirk on his face as he continued to wait for the first of his challengers...

("Get Funky" by 5 Alarm Music)

The crowd was confused by the music, and even Cage raised an eyebrow at the music, and Chocolove McDonnell came out onto the stage with a big smile on his face. He raised his hand in the air before making his way down the ramp, as the crowd gave him a light mixed reaction, and leaped onto the apron before leaping over the ropes into the ring. He climbed a turnbuckle and raised his fists in the air, the light mixed reaction continuing.

"Introducing challenger #1, representing WWE: Animated, from New York City, New York, weighing in at 185 lbs., Chocolove McDonnell!"

"Hey, I know this kid! It's the rookie, Chocolove, from WWE: Animated! This blind Shaman that uses every other sense to see for him has really turned some heads with victories over Raimundo Pedrosa and Aang over in that company! And now he looks to capitalize on that momentum by accepting this Open Challenge!" Church stated.

"...His jokes suck..." Sarge deadpanned. "...They make me wanna vomit. And I think I get diarrhea from him. I hope he gets mauled..."

"...I...won't deny that his jokes are the worst..." Church admitted. "Like...they really suck...worse than Tucker's perverted jokes..." A faint "HEY" could be heard. "But it's not about jokes tonight! It's about the Internet Title! And we have only one challenger left to introduce..."

Chocolove stood in his corner, eager smile on his face as Cage simply watched the kid from his corner. Seconds passed as the two waited for the final challenger, and...

...

What's Up, Doc?

("Buggin'" by Bugs Bunny)

THE CROWD ERUPTED INTO THUNDEROUS CHEERS!

"WHAT?! NO WAY! NO FREAKIN' WAY!" Church shouted.

The crowd was going crazy as Chocolove and Cage looked shocked...

...

...as Bugs Bunny walked out onto the stage to a standing ovation from the crowd. He looked out to the crowd and to the stage, and took a deep breath and said "Well...guess I'm back for one night" before making his way down the ramp. He slapped hands with excited fans as they chanted "BUGS! BUGS! BUGS!" before he slid into the ring. He stood in it and pumped a fist into the air as the crowd just ate everything he did up!

"And challenger #2, representing XCW, from Burbank, California, weighing in at 232 lbs., none other than...BUGS BUNNY!"

"BUGS BUNNY! BUGS BUNNY IS BACK IN UCA TO FIGHT IN XCW'S NAME! AND THE FANS CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH OF THIS! THE LEGEND AND UCA HALL OF FAMER HIMSELF! THE FIRST RUMBLE WINNER, THE FIRST TWO-TIME WORLD CHAMPION, AND FIRST TO MAIN EVENT FINAL CLASH TWICE! THE VERY FIRST FACE OF UCA! AND THAT'S JUST HIS UCA ACCOMPLISHMENTS! WON THE FIRST FICTION WRESTLING MATCH, TOON CHAMPION, TWO-TIME TOON IC CHAMPION, AND XCW TELEVISION CHAMPION! AND THE LEGEND BUGS IS HERE TO WIN HIMSELF ANOTHER TITLE!" Church shouted.

"HOW?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! HOW CAN THIS DAMN RABBIT BE HERE?! THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING! HE'S GONE FROM UCA! G-O-N-E! GONE! DAMMIT! I CALL FOUL ON THIS AND DEMAND A RECOUNT!" Sarge shouted.

"SHUT UP, SARGE! THIS IS UNREAL! BUGS IS HERE TO REPRESENT X-TREME CARTOON WRESTLING, AND CAGE CAN'T BELIEVE IT! THIS IS NOT WHAT HE EXPECTED AT ALL!" Church shouted.

Bugs stood in his corner as the crowd chanted "WELCOME BACK! WELCOME BACK!" and the rabbit took out a carrot and munched on it as he looked at his opponents before saying "Eeeehhhh...what's up, docs?" Chocolove looked in absolute awe of what has occurred, partially because of the fact he was getting to wrestle a LEGEND. Cage frowned at Bugs, not really sure what to make of this as he handed his title to the ref, who then showed it to all in the ring before raising it for all to see.

"And there's the prize these three will fight for! The Internet Championship! Johnny Cage, Chocolove McDonnell, and Bugs Bunny! Three different men of different statuses and one prize! Time to see who comes out on top!" Church stated.

The three competitors slowly came up to each other, staring each other down for a few minutes. Cage and Bugs particularly got in each other's face, possibly because of Cage's RR relations. Words were exchanged between the two for a bit...until Chocolove came between them as he had come up with something. Cage and Bugs were confused until Chocolove said "Man, I feel so 'Caged' in this ring. I'm gonna go 'bunny hop' out for a minute." The crowd BOOED loudly at the terrible joke as Cage and Bugs just stared at the rookie blankly.

"...Good God...that...that was TERRIBLE...I mean...Oh god, that was worse than anything I've ever heard before...seriously, I think even CABOOSE can come up with better! AND HE'S CABOOSE!" Church shouted.

Sarge didn't say anything...but was HIGHLY tempted to grab the shotgun that he was always has on him and just aim it at a particular Shaman.

Chocolove was just grinning, thinking his joke was GOOD, while his opponents just stared at him...then at each other...

...BEFORE KNOCKING CHOCO DOWN WITH DUAL FISTS!

"OH! CHOCO JUST GOT A DOUBLE DOSE OF FIST! AND AFTER THAT JOKE, HE DESERVED IT!" Church shouted.

"YES! YES! DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE RR RELATIONS RIGHT NOW, JUST BEAT THAT SHAMAN'S ASS TO THE GROUND!" Sarge exclaimed.

The crowd EXPLODED at the attack, and the two began to stomp the freakin' hell out of Chocolove, who couldn't even defend himself. Bugs then picked up Chocolove, and gave him a Karate Kick, sending him right into Cage, who nailed a Shadow Kick on Chocolove! The two then picked up Chocolove and threw him out of the ring. Cage nodded at his work...AND THEN GOT ROLLED UP BY BUGS!

"And Chocolove is out of th-OH WAIT! ROLL-UP BY BUGS!" Church shouted.

1...

2...

Cage kicked out!

"Damn bunny! He tried to steal one from Cage! He's just as bad as he was long ago!" Sarge exclaimed.

The two scrambled to their feet, and Cage caught Bugs with a kick to the gut and nails a few punches to the skull. He backs Bugs up to the ropes and whips him into the adjacent ones, and tries for a Back Body Drop as he comes back, but Bugs catches him with a Facebuster! Cage stumbled to his feet, and Bugs nailed a Snap STO on him. Bugs then picked up Cage, threw him into the corner, climbed it, and began nailing fists on Cage's skull! 1...2...3...4...6...7...8...9...10! Bugs got off the turnbuckle after ten punches, and Cage stumbles out of it and into a Samoan Drop from the legend! Bugs with a cover! 1...2...Cage kicks out! Bugs then grabs the leg and tries for a Spinning Toe Hold, but Cage kicked Bugs away! Bugs turned around and ran at Cage, but got caught with a Drop Toe Hold! Cage then stood up, and nailed a Jumping Elbow Drop to the back! Cage then grabbed the head and proceeded to lock in a Headlock.

"And Cage finally manages to take control after a big flurry from Bugs! He's got that Healdock in tight!" Church stated.

"Yeah, he does! Bugs realizing why he's outmatch by such a big movie star! HIS MOVIES HAVE SOLD MORE THAN YOURS, RABIT!" Sarge exclaimed.

Cage wrenched on the head greatly, but Bugs slowly managed to stand with Cage in tow. He then slipped out of the Headlock, and quickly nailed an Inverted DDT! Bugs then picks up Cage and whips him into a corner, then runs and nails a Stinger Splash! Bugs then grabs him, and lifts him up Suplex-style...Cage lands behind him, and nails a Bridging German Suplex! 1...2...Bugs kicks out! Bugs rolls back onto his feet, but got a Boot to the jaw, sending him into the ropes! Cage then Clotheslines Bugs over them, but Bugs lands on the apron. Cage grabs Bugs, but the rabbit Hotshot Cage against the ropes! Cage held his throat as Bugs got back in the ring, and nailed a Flying Clothesline on Cage! Bugs picks up Cage...AND THE TWO SUDDENLY GOT A SPRINGBOARD CROSSBODY FROM CHOCOLOVE!

"Chocolove just came back in with a bang! He flew high and got both of them with a Springboard Crossbody!" Church said.

"Damn, I forgot about Chocolove! Was hoping he not show up for the rest of the match! That would have been blissful!" Sarge said.

Chocolove rolled onto his feet and bounced off the ropes just as Bugs got up, and nailed him with a Running Dropkick. Chocolove got up as Cage did, and caught him with an Enziguri to the skull, dazing him on his feet! Bug stood up, but then got a Hurricarana from Choco, sending him into Cage, and the Kombatant was sent out of the ring from the collision! Bugs stumbled backwards, and right into a Victory Roll from Choco! 1...2...Bugs kicks out! Choco got up and went for a kick, but Bugs caught it, spun Choco around, and caught him with a Spinebuster! Bugs then bounces off the ropes and nails a Leg Drop before picking him up, and into a Fireman's Carry! Choco slipped out of it behind Bugs and near the ropes, and Bugs ran at him, but Choco pulled down the ropes, and Bugs went over them and landed near Cage outside! Choco saw the position of his opponents, thought about it for awhile...and suddenly got an idea! He grabbed the ropes as Bugs and Cage stood up on the outside...

...

...AND CHOCOLOVE NAILS A SENTON PLANCHA ON THEM!

"Senton Plancha! Man, Choco's actually getting some serious momentum on his side! Color me surprised!" Church stated.

"What kind of bizarro world have we entered?! I demand to know what's helping Choco do this! I know he isn't doing this on his own!" Sarge said.

Chocolove stood up and raised his hands with a grin on his face, igniting a mixed reaction before he went over to one side of the ring. He then climbed the barricade, and managed to steady himself on it before waiting for the two opponents to stand. He then ran across the barricade towards them...

...

...AND CAGE MOVED OUT OF THE WAY AS CHOCO NAILS A DIVING CLOTHESLINE OFF THE BARRICADE ON BUGS! Choco manages to stand...

...

...AND CAGE GRABS HIM AND BACK SUPLEXES HIM ON THE APRON!

"Oh damn! Back Suplex on the apron! That's the hardest part of the ring! That's going to ground Choco!" Church stated.

"That's what he get for only get one when he was going for two! His own fault!" Sarge stated.

Cage picked up Choco and threw him into the ring and slid in with him. Cage picked up Choco and quickly nailed a Pendulum Backbreaker before following with a cover! 1...2...Choco kicks out! Cage stands up, and stomps on Choco a few times before picking him up, whipping him into the ropes and catching him with a Back Elbow. Choco stumbled up to his feet, and got several rights to the face from Cage, who then grabbed him and planted him with a DDT! Cage then dragged him near a corner, climbed to the second turnbuckle, and nailed a Diving Knee Drop on Choco! Cage with another cover! 1...2...Choco kicks out! Cage picks up Choco and throws him into a corner, and nails a few Knife Edge Chops, inciting "Wooooos!" from the crowd, before whipping him into the adjacent corner hard! Choco bounced off it...

...and DUCKS a clothesline from Cage! Cage turned around...AND GOT A GAMENGIRI!

"OH! Gamengiri right to the skull! Cage may be in Lala land after that!" Church exclaimed.

"Dammit! Cage had him in the bag! You dirty Blue Shaman!" Sarge cursed.

Cage backed up into the corner and stumbled out of it and Choco went for another Hurricarana...

...

...Cage HELD ONTO CHOCO IN POWERBOMB POSITION! Choco tried to nail a few fists in desperation, but Cage held on...

...

...BUT CAGE GOT SPEARED BY BUGS!

"BUGS WITH THE SPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE! Cage nearly got snapped in half for taking his eyes off Bugs!" Church stated.

Choco fell on top of Cage after the Spear and had him in a cover!

1...

...

2...

...

Bugs breaks it up!

"Too close dammit! Too close! But thanks for saving the match-up for Cage to win, Bugs! You may not be as dirty a Blue as I thought." Sarge said.

Bugs got up, but got caught with a Soccer Kick to the chest. Choco then nailed a few more Soccer Kicks to the chest, but Bugs managed to catch one, and proceeded to try and apply an Ankle Lock! Choco struggled and managed to kick Bugs away, got up, and then ran at the Bunny! Bugs however sidestepped Choco, throwing him into the ropes, caught him on the bounce back in a Full Nelson...

...

...and then DROPPED him with a Full Nelson Slam! Bugs then slapped his elbow before he went over to the corner and began climbing it!

"I think Bugs is going for the classic Acme Elbow Drop! That move is sure to give him the win and the Internet Championship!" Church stated.

"Dammit! I appreciate Bugs saving the match for Cage earlier, but he isn't supposed to win! He REALLY isn't!" Sarge exclaimed.

Bugs climbed to the top of the turnbuckle, and steadied himself...

...

...CAGE HIT THE TURNBUCKLE, CAUSING BUGS TO GET CROTCHED ON IT!

"Ooooohhhh! That's GOT to hurt!" Church winced.

"As a man, I feel his pain...only a little though." Sarge stated.

Bugs's face was contorted in great pain, and Cage quickly climbed up to the top and nailed a few rights to the face of Bugs, dazing him. He then grabbed Bugs head, draping his arm over his own...

...

...AND NAILED A SUPERPLEX ON HIM!

"Superplex on Bugs! And it was an emphatic o-HEY! CHOCO!" Church exclaimed.

Choco had leaped at Bugs and covered him!

1...

...

2...

...

Cage managed to break the count before three!

"Damn, that sneaky Shaman nearly stole one! That's an act of a Blue! And as such, KICK HIS ASS!" Sarge exclaimed.

Choco tried to get up, but got grabbed by Cage and nailed with a vicious Knee Smash to the temple! Choco was dazed as Cage grabbed him and whipped him to the ropes. Choco bounced off them, and then got Back Body Dropped by Cage ONTO A PRONOE BUGS! Bugs rolled away in pain as Choco held his back in pain, and Cage covered Choco! 1...2...Choco kicks out! Cage picked up Choco and dragged him over to a corner and began several Head Smashes into the corner for Choco, but Mr. Wind suddenly managed to block the last Head Smash, and then nail a big kick to the face that sent Cage back a bit! Choco then pulled himself to the second turnbuckle, and dived off...

...

...Cage moved out of the way! Choco managed to land on his feet and turned around, and LEAPFROGGED over an incoming Cage! Cage bounced off the ropes as Choco leaped at the adjacent ones...

...

...CAGE RAN RIGHT INTO A SPRINGBOARD ENZIGURI!

"Right on the TEMPLE! Johnny Cage ran right into BIG KICK!" Church stated.

"DAMMIT JOHNNY! Why'd you run into THAT?! WHY?!" Sarge questioned.

Choco popped up to his feet...

...

...and RIGHT into an INVERTED ATOMIC DROP from Bugs! Choco held his backside before getting a KARATE KICK TO THE FACE!

"KARATE KICK! Bugs nailed it on the button! Choco may be out!" Church exclaimed.

"Dammit, hate to say this, but Choco..." Sarge began.

Bugs covered Choco!

1...

...

2...

...

Choco kicks out!

"You Just Got...NOT Sarge'd! Good that Choco kicked out! ...Not because he's liked, but because it means Cage can still win." Sarge clarified.

Bugs sighed in frustration before picking up Choco, who tried to fight back with punches to the gut, stunning Bugs and then bounced off the ropes, but got caught by Bugs who proceeded to nail him with a Side Slam! Bugs covers! 1...2...Choco kicks out! Bugs shook his head and picked up Choco, and then lifted him up Suplex-Style...

...

...Choco flipped out of it and landed behind Bugs! Choco turned around and went for a Gamengiri!

...

...BUGS CAUGHT THE LEG AND LOCKED IN AN ANKLE LOCK!

"ANKLE LOCK! ANKLE LOCK! CHOCO GOT CAUGHT! BUGS MAY BE A TAPOUT AWAY FROM BEING INTERNET CHAMPION!" Church shouted.

"OH YOU BETTER NOT TAP OUT, CHOCO! KEEP LIVING FOR CAGE'S VICTORY! IF YOU DON'T, I'LL KILL YOU MYSELF!" Sarge exclaimed.

Choco cried out in pain as Bugs wrenched on the ankle, but Choco didn't want to tap out! Not yet! He saw the ropes and tried to crawl over to them! Bugs continued to wrench on the ankle, hoping to force a tap out as Choco inched his way towards the ropes little by little, pushing through the pain...

...

...Choco reached a hand out...

...

...BUGS PULLED HIM BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING! Choco cried out in pain as Bugs held the hold tight...

...

...AND CAGE NUT PUNCHES BUGS OUT OF NOWHERE! Bugs let go of the hold as he held his nuts, muttering "Mother..." as he did so. Cage then bounced off the ropes AND NAILED A SHADOW KICK ON BUGS!

"NUT PUNCH AND SHADOW KICK! CAGE JUST NAILED THEM OUT OF THIN AIR!" Church exclaimed.

"NO DQS IN A TRIPLE THREAT! CAGE HAS BUGS! Bugs..." Sarge began.

Cage quickly hooks the leg!

1...

...

2...

...

BUGS KICKS OUT!

"You Just Got...DAMMIT! DAMMIT! THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THREE DAMMIT! CAGE SHOULD HAVE RETAINED BY NOW!" Sarge shouted.

"The legend isn't going down like that! He wants to be a Champion again, he'll do what he can to get it!" Church stated.

Cage couldn't believe it and just slammed his fist on the mat in frustration! He then proceeded to redirect his anger on Bugs, and began to punch the hell out of Bugs, and then stood up and stomped the hell out of the rabbit! Cage then picked up Bugs and lifted him into a Fireman's Carry...

...

...Choco managed to pull Bugs off Cage's shoulders from behind! Cage turned around AND GOT A SMALL PACKAGE!

"SMALL PACKAGE FROM CHOCO! DOES HE...?!" Church questioned.

1...

...

2...

...

CAGE KICKS OUT!

"DAMMIT! STOP WITH THE HEART ATTACKS DAMMIT! I SHOULD JUST SHOOT YOU DIRTY BLUES MYSELF"! Sarge shouted.

Cage managed to get to his knees, but got a Dropkick to the face from Choco! The Shaman nursed his hurt ankle a bit before managing to stand, limping on it before picking up Cage, and proceeded to nail a few kicks to his skull before throwing him into the corner in a seated position! Choco then backed up into an adjacent corner, shook his ankle to try and get rid of the pain, then ran...

...

...and hit a Cannonball Senton on the seated Cage! Cage seemed out of it and Choco managed to drag him to the center of the ring! Choco then got on the apron,g grasped the ropes...

...

...SPRINGBOARD 450-CAGE ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY! Choco hits nothing but mat as he stumbles up to his feet holding up his stomach, but then Cage lifts in him into an Electric Chair from behind.

"Uh-oh...I think that high-risk maneuver may have cost Choco this match!" Church stated.

"Do it, Cage! Do it for the mighty Reds that look over you with promise!" Sarge cheered.

Cage steadied Choco on his shoulders, before throwing him off...

...

...CHOCO REVERSED THE ELECTRIC CHAIR FACEBUSTER INTO A HEADSCISSOR TAKEDOWN, SENDING CAGE INTO THE MIDDLE ROPES!

"COUNTER! WHAT A COUNTER! CAGE IS HUNG ON THE ROPES! THE POSITION...!" Church called.

"NO NO NO NO NO NO! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" Sarge exclaimed.

Choco stood up, still slightly limping, but sensed Cage hung up on the ropes, and realized what he was in position for! He then bounced off the ropes towards Cage...

...

...swings around the middle ropes...

...

...CAGE DUCKS THE JAGUAR FEINT KICK (619), AND CATCHES CHOCO ON A SHOULDER!

"CAGE CAUGHT HIM! CAGE CAUGHT HIM!" Church shouted.

"HURRY! FINISH HIM OFF, CAGE! DO IT FOR ALL OF REDKIND!" Sarge exclaimed.

Choco squirmed on Cage's shoulder but he wasn't letting go as he stood up, holding adjusting Choco's position so that he was in a Fireman's Carry! Cage stood in the middle of the ring...

...

...CAGE GOT BOOTED IN THE FACE BY BUGS! Cage fell down and let go of Choco who rolled onto the apron!

"BOOT FROM BUGS! BUGS PICKED HIS MOMENT AND STRUCK!" Church shouted.

Bugs then picked up Cage and grabbed his head! He slung his arm over his shoulder...

...

...he lifted him up Suplex-Style...

...

...AND DROPPED HIM WITH THE BUNNY BLAST (Vertical Suplex Cutter)!

"BUNNY BLAST! THE BUNNY BLAST CONNECTS! THE FAMOUS UCA FINISHER OF BUGS HAS LAID OUT CAGE!" Church shouted.

"DAMMIT! DAMMIT! THIS IS JUST AS BAD AS GRIF NOT RESTOCKING ON AMMO! NO!" Sarge shouted.

The crowd stood on their feet as Bugs quickly hooks the leg!

CHOCO BREAKS IT UP WITH A SPRINGBOARD SPLASH!

"CHOCO?! WHERE THE HELL DID HE COME FROM?!" Church questioned.

"DON'T KNOW! DON'T CARE! BECAUSE HE JUST SAVED THIS MATCH! THAT WAS TOO CLOSE! TOO DAMN CLOSE! I ALMOST HAD A HEART ATTACK!" Sarge shouted.

Bugs held his back in pain as Choco managed to stand up and began nailing fists to the skull of the rising bunny. Choco then bounced off the ropes, and Bug DUCKED the Soccer Kick aimed for his head! Bugs quickly grabbed Choco from behind and nailed a regular Atomic Drop this time, and then bounced off the ropes and hit a Clothesline to the back of the head! Bugs turned Choco for a cover! 1...2...Choco kicks out! Bugs was just frustrated at this point, so he just picked up Choco, but got a Sit-Out Jawbreaker out of nowhere! Bugs fell down and Choco quickly nailed a Standing Moonsault! Choco backed up into the ropes, tired at this point, so he just waited for Bugs to slowly stand up! Once he was up, Choco ran and leaped at him...

...

...Bugs sidestepped and avoided the Hurricarana attempt! Choco turned around, and got caught by Bugs with a Belly-to-Belly Suplex! Bugs then motioned for the end as he placed Choco between his legs!

"Bugs may be going for the Bunny Bomb (The Last Ride), and if Choco gets hit with that, he can kiss his ass goodbye!" Church said.

"Dammit, dammit, dammit! Where's Cage when you need him?!" Sarge questioned.

Bugs then placed his arms around Choco's waist, and lifted him onto his shoulders...

...

...CHOCO TURNED IT INTO A HURRICANRA AND SENT BUGS INTO THE ROPES!

"REVERSAL! JUST LIKE WITH CAGE, CHOCO SAVED HIS ASS AT THE LAST SECOND!" Church stated.

"AND THE POSITION...DAMMIT, HE'S GOING FOR IT!" Sarge exclaimed.

Choco sensed the position, and thought second time's the charm as he bounced off the ropes to Bugs, swung through the middle ropes...

...

...AND NAILED THE JAGUAR FEINT KICK!

"JAGUAR FEINT KICK CONNECTS! CHOCO'S GOT IT! CHOCO'S ACTUALLY GOT IT!" Church stated.

Bugs stumbled backwards from the impact of the move before falling down onto the mat! Choco could actually feel it! He was so close! Adrenaline and excitement coursed through him as he leaped onto the top rope...

...

...CAGE RAN IN AND PUSHED CHOCO OFF THE ROPES! CHOCO FELL DOWN WITH A SPLAT ON THE PADDED CONCRETE!

"OH MY GOD! CAGE JUST SENT CHOCO ON A DOWNWARD SPIRAL! DID YOU HEAR THE SPLAT CHOCO HAD?!" Church stated.

"I SURE DID, AND IT WAS MUSIC TO MY EARS! CAGE MANAGED TO COME BACK IN TIME AND TAKE CHOCO OUT OF THE EQUATION!" Sarge exclaimed.

Cage panted heavily as he looked at Choco motionless on the outside, then turned to see Bugs disoriented as he tried to get up. He quickly grabbed him, lifted him onto his shoulders via Fireman's Carry...

...

...AND DROPPED HIM WITH THE CAGED FURY!

"CAGED FURY! CAGE FINALLY GOT ALL OF IT! BUGS IS OUT!" Church shouted.

"And Bugs Bunny..." Sarge began.

Cage hooks the leg as tightly as he can!

"You Just Got Sarge'd! Cage retains!" Sarge cheered.

("I Am Perfection" by Beta Wolf)

"Here is your winner...and STILL Internet Champion...JOHNNY CAAAAAGGEEEEE!"

The crowd gave its evenly split mixed reaction as Cage rolled off of Bugs and looked up at the ceiling as the victory settled in on him. Once it did, he grew the HAPPIEST grin on his face as he practically CHEERED for his victory! He slowly got up as the ref came up to him with his title belt and handed it to him! Cage gladly took it as he raised it high in the air as the ref raised his other hand in victory!

"Cage did it! He made the Open Challenge and the Triple Threat, and he SOMEHOW pulled it off! Cage retains the Internet Championship in ONE HELL of a match! He proved a lot more tonight, but Bugs and Choco's efforts can't be denied! Bugs showed that he still has it even in this day and age, and had a great one-night return to UCA, and Choco showed that even if he's a GOOF, he can certainly go, and he has BRIGHT future ahead of him!" Church stated.

"I will admit that, they BOTH did very well! A legend and the rookie! But this night BELONGS to Johnny Cage! It truly does! Cage PINNED the FIRST FACE of UCA! The legend himself to retain! Cage just legitimized himself AND his reign with that! And people say the Internet Title isn't worth anything! SAY THAT NOW!" Sarge shouted.

"Whatever people say after this, the RR has to be happy, and Cage even more! HUGE victory for Johnny Cage!" Church stated.

Cage climbed a turnbuckle and raised his title high into the air as he continued to celebrate in victory! He then got off it, looked at a nearby camera and said. "That's how the Internet Champion does things, baby...and soon...the Champion of the Internet...adds Money to his Bank...get a close-up look at Final Clash...you don't want to miss it." Cage then raised his title high into the air one more, the mixed reaction around him only adding to his excitement.

"There's Cage's own proclamation...he intends on becoming Mr. Money in the Bank at Final Clash. And this victory gives him PLENTY of momentum..." Church said.

"Cage has a VERY good chance...he REALLY does...if Cage wins at Final Clash, it would be WELL-DESERVED!" Sarge exclaimed.

"Well, 9 other guys will have something to say about that, but no matter what, Cage is going full steam for the brass ring! Is HE the next Mr. Money in the Bank?! We'll find out in four weeks!" Church questioned.

The camera goes to a locker room backstage, where we see the Mushroom Kingdom all together and talking with each other.

"Can you-a believe that bandicoot?" Mario questioned, a frown on his face. "Butting into business that has nothing to do with him. All because Matt is his 'pal'...well, this only delayed the inevitable for Ishida. No way is he getting off that easy. He's not escaping the reality check that's in store for him tonight. He can have people save him all he wants, but it won't change the fate that awaits him."

"Exactly, brother!" Luigi nodded. "Matt may-a think he's all that, but when faced with you and the Mushroom Kingdom, he's-a nothing! How many people like him have stepped to us only to be knocked down where they belong? I know Matt's no different from the rest! How could he possibly be? And tonight, you and Toad will show everybody why Matt's resurrection is Dead on Arrival. And Crash...well, he'll just be another casualty, right?"

"YOSHI!" Yoshi nodded with firm determination.

"Exactly...Crash wants to butt into our business, but what he doesn't realize is that everything he does is worthless here." Toad spoke up, smirk on his face. "Crash can't do crap to save himself, let alone Matt, especially when I'm done with him. This is a perfect opportunity to show that brainless marsupial that he doesn't stand a chance at winning Money in the Bank, nor anybody else in that match. Not when I'm in it. His hot streak in UCA just hit the ultimate roadblock, because I'll Goomba Stomp him to the ground, and then show the world what Toad is really all about it."

"Exactly, Toad! Tonight, we show Crash and Matt who their superiors are!" Mario proclaimed, throwing his World Title over his shoulder. "And give them a taste of what happens at Final Clash...the Mushroom Kingdom standing tall! I'll retain at Final Clash AGAIN, Toad will win Money in the Bank, and thus the World Title is ensured to stay around my waist no matter what! That is the goal that will be achieved no matter what! And that is something to look forward to!"

Luigi and Yoshi nodded in approval, but Toad narrowed his eyes at what Mario said, seemingly not pleased at him winning Money in the Bank just being used to help Mario keep his title. Mario noticed Toad's tense state however.

"Toad, are you alright? Something the matter?" Mario asked.

"...No...nothing's wrong." Toad shook his head, deciding not to worry about it now. "I'm fine, and I'll be even MORE fine after we take down Crash and Matt tonight."

"I hear ya, Toad...I hear ya. Tonight...we send a message they won't forget any time soon. And with what I have in mind for Matt...it'll only be the beginning." Mario smirked.

("Finest Hour" by Bulletproof Messenger)

The crowd gave a mixed reaction as Sora came out with a cocky smirk, placing his hands behind his head as he made his way down the ramp. He gave a glance to the crowd and just continued to smirk before walking around the ring and towards the announce table. He took a seat next to Church and Sarge and put on a headset.

"And we're being visited at the table by the No. 1 Contender for the Cruiserweight Title in Sora! And I can only assume because of who is competing in this next match-up!" Church stated.

"Of course, Church, after all, this guy commentated during my match last week, so it's only fair I return the favor." Sora chuckled. "And besides, this match should be interesting."

"Well Sora, you may not be my favorite wrestler, but you're still an improvement over the dirty Blue next to me!" Sarge proclaimed, prompting a sigh from Church. "But the next match is about to start, and it's a special one, so let's get to it!"

("All I Want" by A Day to Remember)

The crowd cheered loudly as Tidus came out onto the stage with the Cruiserweight Title around his waist and his sword in hand. Tidus had a big grin on his face before throwing his sword into the air and jumping up to catch it, landing on the stage to a blast of pyro. Tidus ran down the ramp and leaped into the ring through the ropes and threw his sword into the air once more before catching it and striking a pose with it. Tidus then took a wary look at Sora at the announce table, who only grinned and waved from his seat.

"The following contest is a Champion vs Champion Match scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from the City of Zanarkand, weighing in at 215 lbs., he is the UCA Cruiserweight Champion, Tidus!"

"Hey Sora, don't mind me, just here to watch your match, and see what you are made of in person! After all, got to prove that Kingdom Hearts is better than Final Fantasy after all!" Sora said cheekily as he continued to wave.

"Well, Sora's comments aside, Tidus is in action, and as you heard, it's going to be CHAMPION VS CHAMPION! And who he's facing won't be a walk in the park, but Tidus welcomes the challenge! Because he wants to show Sora here why he believes that he'll walk out Final Clash as Champion, and prove Final Fantasy better!" Church stated.

"Well, I'm afraid that Tidus isn't going to show that at all! Because this man he's facing...he's such a great Red, that chances of victory for Tidus...NADA! ZILCH! ZERO! NOT GONNA HAPPEN!" Sarge shouted.

("Hero" by Pop Evil)

The crowd gave out boisterous boos as the lights turned green, and Ben Tennyson walked out with a cocky smirk and the Hardcore Title around his waist. He looked out to the crowd booing him and simply showed off his Hardcore Title to them all. The crowd only booed louder as Ben Tennyson walked down the ramp, arms splayed out in an arrogant manner before entering the ring. He climbed up the turnbuckle, and said "Don't worry people, the hero is here!"

"And his opponent, from Bellwood, Illinois, weighing in at 243 lbs., he is the UCA Hardcore Champion, Ben "Ten" Tennyson!

"And here comes Ben Tennyson, who just last week not only screwed over Senji AGAIN, but he went to an all-new low by bringing up his past and twisting it! Just to feed his own ego! The Hardcore Champion is so smug thanks to all of this! And he looks to add a victory over the Cruiserweight Champ to further his joy!" Church stated.

"You know...I don't like Ben. I'm not an angel in the business, I can be cocky and I have every right to be and I do not-so-nice things, but I wouldn't do what Ben's done. He's an ass on a whole other level, and that ALMOST makes me want to root for Tidus here...almost." Sora stated.

"Ben's such a great person though! He's exposed Senji for the foul being that he really is, and he's going to do all he can to rid UCA of Senji for the better! And nod out, this eventual victory over Tidus will go a good ways to that!"

Ben and Tidus handed their belts to the ringside, and waited until the ref rang the bell. The two met in the middle of the ring and got in a lock-up, and Ben quickly put him in a Headlock. Ben wrenched on the head, but Tidus tried to slip out of it but got a Headlock Takedown instead. Tidus gritted his teeth and managed to stand up with Ben holding on, backed up into the ropes, and then pushed Ben into the adjacent ones. Ben bounced off them, and right into a Dropkick from Tidus. Be rolled onto his feet, and got a few Shoot Kicks to the chest before getting whipped into a corner. Tidus then ran at him, and nailed a Corner Forearm Smash to the face. Ben staggered out of the corner, and Tidus went for a Springboard Crossbody off the corner as Ben turned around! The hero avoided it however, and Tidus crashed to the mat, and was met with a Swinging Neckbreaker as soon as he got back up!

"And Ben takes down Tidus with that Swinging Neckbreaker after Tidus went high-risk too early!" Church stated.

"And there's the reason why I know I'll win at Final Clash! He takes risks and they don't pay off. When I take risks though, and they pay off." Sora commented.

Ben picked up Tidus and nailed a few forearms to the face before hitting a Snap Suplex. Ben then stood, bounced off the ropes, and nailed an Elbow Drop to the heart. Ben hooks the leg! 1...2...Tidus kicks out. Ben quickly picks up Tidus and whips him into a corner. Ben takes a moment to pose arrogantly to loud boos before running to Tidus. Tidus catches Ben with a foot however, causing him to back up, then runs and nails a Snap Hurricarana on the hero. Ben stumbles to his feet and gets whipped into the ropes, and Tidus goes for a Back Body Drop, but the hero catches Tidus with a kick to the chest. Tidus stands up, and Ben quickly nails a Belly-to-Belly Suplex. Ben stomped on Tidus a few times before picking him up, and lifting him for a Galaxy Storm, but Tidus flipped out and landed behind Ben, and quickly nailed a Jumping Sleeper Slam. Tidus then nailed a Standing Moonsault!

"And Tidus takes control with that series of moves! Not bad on the Cruiserweight Champ's part!" Church called.

"Tidus just got lucky is all! It's just a lucky break that will definitely fall apart in the next few seconds!" Sarge stated.

"That guy may be my rival, but even I know that's not going to happen THAT quick..." Sora commented.

Tidus picked up Ben and threw him into the corner, and then began nailing Shoot Kicks to the chest of Tennyson repeatedly. After eight kicks, Tidus backed up to adjacent corner, and then ran and nailed a Corner Dropkick! Ben stumbled out of the corner and right into a Spinning Heel Kick! Tidus with the cover! 1...2...Ben kicks out! Tidus picks up Ben and nails a Thrust Kick to the gut, bending him over, and leaped at the ropes...

...but Ben suddenly grabs Tidus as he was on them and pushed him over them! Tidus spilled to the outside and landed on the padded floor with a splat. Ben quickly got on the apron and waited for Tidus to stand...

...and nails a Diving Clothesline off the apron!

"Hah! There's our hero at work! Nailing Diving Clotheslines as if he were a Red on a Tuesday..." Sarge suddenly stated.

Sora simply stared at Sarge. "...What the hell are you talking about?" He questioned.

"Ignore him, Sora, it's better for your sanity..." Church deadpanned.

Ben smirked down at the fallen Tidus before picking him up and throwing him hard into the steel steps. Tidus writhed in pain before getting thrown back into the ring, and Ben slid back in, waited for Tidus to get to his knees, and then booted his head off! Ben with the cover! 1...2...Tidus kicks out! Ben begins to drop knees across the gut repeatedly before jumping and nailing a Leg Drop across the neck! Ben then picked up Tidus and then threw him chest-first into corner, where he bounced off them, and into a Waistlock, and then a German Suplex!

...but Tidus backflipped out of it and landed on his feet! Ben stood up, but got caught with a Jumping DDT from Tidus!

"OH! Planted right on the head! That didn't go quite the way that hero wanted, did it?!" Church questioned.

"Not bad, not bad, I will admit. That was a decent move he pulled off, but he has to do better." Sora stated.

"Decent?! Don't be bamboozled, Sora! That was nothing more than some pathetic DDT only a dirty Blue could muster! Simmons could do better! ...Though he does better than Grif, I can assure you." Sarge said.

Tidus then rolled onto the apron and stood on it, grabbing the ropes as he waited for the hero to stand. Ben slowly got up to his feet, and when he did, Tidus leaped onto the ropes...

...

...and hit a Springboard Blockbuster on Ben!

"And Tidus with one hell of a Springboard Blockbuster on the hero! And there's the cover!" Church stated.

Tidus hooks the leg!

1...

...

2...

...

Ben kicks out!

"Don't count our Red hero! He's not one to let himself get beaten so easily!" Sarge said.

Tidus picks up Ben and quickly sets him up before dropping him with a Necbreaker Slam! Tidus then goes for a Springboard Moonsault, but Ben rolls out of the way! Tidus lands on his feet as Ben gets up, and throws a clothesline, but the FF hero ducks it! Ben turns around, and gets caught with a Jumping Calf Kick! Ben stumbles to his feet as Tidus readies his and throws a Roundhouse Kick...

...

...Ben ducks it and pushes Tidus into the ropes! Tidus bounces off them and into a Snap Powerslam from Ben! Ben quickly picks up Tidus, hooks both arms, and then nails a Double Underhook Suplex! Ben then quickly climbs up a turnbuckle, and stands tall on it, and dives off...

...

...and Tidus gets the knees up! Ben's elbow crashes onto them!

"He actually got the knees up! When the hell did this kid actually get that smart?" Sora questioned.

"While you ask that question, Ben's Diving Elbow was denied, and now his elbow's worse for wear!" Church said.

"Oh come on, why were we bamboozled?! Why?! Ben's elbow should have hit the heart! The heart! Stop with the trickery!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben stood up holding his elbow, and Tidus quickly stood and nailed a ROUNDHOUSE TO THE SKULL! Ben fell down to the ground and was dragged to the center of the ring, before Tidus ran at the ropes...

...

...and nailed a Springboard Moonsault!

"Springboard Moonsault! Tidus gets all of it!" Church calls.

"Mmhmm..." Sora simply hummed.

Tidus hooks the leg!

1...

...

2...

...

Ben kicks out!

"Okay, that was the LAST pin that Tidus will EVER have on Ben! You hear me?! The last!" Sarge stated.

Tidus backs up into a corner and prepares himself for the finishing touch on Ben. He waited as Ben slowly managed to get to his feet before turning around...

...

...AND DUCKING THE BLITZ KICK! The blitzball ace landed on his feet before turning around AND GETTING A RUNNING KNEE SMASH TO THE JAW! Tidus was sent into the ropes and bounced off them...

...

...AND INTO A SITOUT SPINEBUSTER!

"And Ben with the turn-around! One dodge was all it took on his part! Tidus has been ROCKED!" Church stated.

"Hah, as if there was any doubt! The hero always wins as Ben always says!" Sarge proclaimed.

"But if that were me, I would OBVIOUSLY hit what I was looking for! Really disappointing on Tidus' part..." Sora shook his head.

Ben then picked up Tidus and whipped him into the corner, and then ran and nailed a Corner Spear! Tidus stumbled out of the corner holding his gut, but then got grabbed from behind by Ben, and then hit with an Atomic Drop! But Ben held onto Tidus and lifted him up again...

...

...AND HIT A GALAXY STORM!

"And there is the Galaxy Storm! Didn't like being in the galaxy when THAT hit ya, huh?!" Sarge questioned.

Ben covered Tidus!

1...

...

2...

...

Tidus kicks out!

"But Tidus manages to weather the storm and kick out at two! Ben needs to hit more to put down Tidus!" Church proclaimed.

"You know...I have to thank Ben here...why? Because I'm getting to know what isn't working for him, and knowing not to try it, and what IS working, and do it MUCH BETTER than him! Thanks Ben!" Sora chuckled.

Ben was frustrated at Tidus' resilience, and decided to try and finish him by picking him and lifting him into a Fireman's Carry! He tried for the Omni-Slam...

...

...but Tidus slips out of it and lands behind Ben! Ben turns around and gets a Dropsault to the chest! Ben is dropped, then gets picked up, and his head gets locked! Tidus suddenly leaps up for a Standing Tornado DDT...but Ben throws Tidus off of him in mid-jump and spin! Tidus lands on his feet...

...

...DUCKS A GALAXY STRIKE! Ben stumbles a bit as Tidus bounces off the ropes backs to Ben and quickly nails a Tilt-A-Whirl Headscissors! Ben was rattled as he got back up but got met with a Spinning Wheel Kick! Tidus then quickly leaps up to a nearby turnbuckle...

...

...AND HITS A CORKSCREW MOONSAULT ON BEN!

"One hell of a Corkscrew Moonsault finds the mark on Ben!" Church called.

"Dammit, I hate to say this, Ben, but..." Sarge began.

Tidus hooks the leg!

1...

...

2...

...

Ben kicks out!

"You Just Got...oh overzealous me, how could I forget?! Ben's the hero! And the hero always win!" Sarge stated.

Tidus shook his head before dragging Ben over to the ropes before getting on the apron. He grasped the ropes steadying himself before nailing a Slingshot Senton over the ropes on Ben! He easily gets on his feet with the momentum and bounces off the ropes, and nails a Running Shooting Star Press!

...

...but Ben gets the knees up! Tidus crashes onto them, and holds his gut in pain! He manages to get back up and turns around AND RIGHT INTO A BIG BOOT FROM BEN!

"Oooohhh! Right to the jaw! Ben nearly booted Tidus' head off!" Church stated.

"Man, what a bad follow-up, Tidus. Is this what you're gonna bring to Final Clash? If it is, then it seems winning the Cruiserweight Title for Kingdom Hearts just got easier." Sora stated.

Ben then gets up and bounces off the ropes before nailing a Jumping Elbow Drop on Tidus! He then picked the FF hero up, and then onto his shoulders...

...

...AND DROPPED HIM WITH A DEATH VALLEY DRIVER!

"Death Valley Driver! Ben just drove Tius right on his skull!" Church shouted.

"And now I can say that Tidus..." Sarge began.

Ben pins Tidus!

1...

...

2...

...

Tidus kicks out!

"You Just Got...D'OH! I swear, that no-good blitzball player won't be able to kick his way out of this!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben was frustrated as he got up and glared down at Tidus before backing up into a corner. He then began slapping his elbow repeatedly, signifying what he was going for. The crowd booed at this as Tidus slowly pushed himself off the mat, as Ben slapped his elbow faster. Tidus managed to get up, and turned around...

...

...Ben ran at Tidus...

...

...TIDUS DUCKED THE GALAXY STRIKE! Ben turned around and GOT A GAMENGIRI TO THE SKULL! Ben was dazed on his feet, and Tidus quickly followed up with a Leg Sweep, Ben falling onto his back on the mat as a result! Tidus then quickly grabbed the legs!

"Tidus avoids a SERIOUS knockout via elbow right there! He saved his ass, and managed to take down Be-Wait, what's he doing right now?" Church asked.

Tidus dragged Ben to the middle of the ring, holding the legs, looked at Sora at the announce table and then grinned. He then placed his legs between Ben's, tied them around his leg...

...

...THEN TURNED HIM OVER AND LOCKED IN THE KEY-SHOOTER!

"KEY-SHOOTER! KEY-SHOOTER! TIDUS HAS SORA'S PATENTED SUBMISSION LOCKED IN ON BEN! PAYBACK FOR SORA USING THE BLITZ KICK LAST WEEK!" Church shouted.

"HEY, HE CAN'T DO THAT! THAT'S COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT! SOMEBODY SUE TIDUS RIGHT NOW!" Sarge shouted.

Sora simply remained quiet, narrowing his eyes as he watched Tidus apply HIS submission maneuver.

Ben cried out in pain as Tidus pulled on the submission, wanting to gain satisfaction by winning with Sora's submission! Ben pulled at his hair, but he refused to quit, and he began to crawl towards the ropes! Tidus kept the hold in as tightly as he could, and Ben gritted his teeth as the pain shot through him before reaching out for the ropes...

...

...Tidus pulled back on the hold as much as he could...

...

...BEN GRAPS THE ROPES!

"And Ben manages to save himself with the ropes! Tidus' lack of submission use may have helped Ben survive there!" Church stated.

"Yeah, and Tidus couldn't get the job done! That's what you get for using a move THAT ISN'T YOURS, BLUE!" Sarge exclaimed.

Tidus groaned as he let go of the hold and panted a bit before he grabbed Ben. He slowly picked him up, but Ben suddenly grabbed Tidus and threw him into the middle ropes. Tidus' throat crashed into them, and he bounced off them, holding his throat in pain. He stumbled up to his feet, and Ben grabbed him and nailed a Snap STO! Ben then picked up Tidus once more, and quickly followed it up with a Spike DDT, Tidus nearly standing on his head from the impact!

"OH! What a damn DDT! Tidus' brain cells may be scrambled after that one!" Church called.

"As done by our great hero! No one else could do it as good as him!" Sarge stated.

Tidus held his head as he rolled over to the ropes to try for a breather, but Ben wasn't having any of it as he followed. He grabbed his legs, but Tidus grabbed hold of the bottom rope to keep from getting dragged away. Ben kept trying to pull, but Tidus still held on no matter what. Annoyed, Ben suddenly pulled at the legs once more, lifting Tidus' body in the process...

...

...TIDUS USED THE MOMENTUM TO SUDDENLY CORKSCREW FLIP ONTO HIS FEET! Ben was stunned but got an ENZIGURI TO THE SKULL!

"HOLY SH*T! Did you see what Tidus just pulled off?! He just freakin' flipped onto his feet like it was NOTHING!" Church stated.

"How the hell did he pull it off?! I call Red foul! I bet Grif let him take the blueprints on how to do such a move!" Sarge shouted.

Ben was dazed on his feet, but got grabbed from behind...

...

...TIDUS NAILS THE SONIC BLADE!

"And NOW Sora hits the Sonic Blade of Sora's! I thin Tidus just one-upped what Sora did last week by pulling off TWO of his moves without problem!" Church shouted, as Sora continued to remain silent at this.

Tidus stood up and had an upbeat grin on his face at what he managed to pull off before going over to a nearby corner. He quickly climbed it and steadied himself at the top of it.

"Oh fudge pops, Tidus is up on top! Somebody has to stop him! Somebody has to do the Red th-Hey look there!" Sarge stated.

"What the hell is he doing?!" Church questioned.

SORA had taken off his headset and quickly climbed over to the apron nearest Tidus' corner, and began sharing a few words with him. Tidus saw him, and not amused by his actions, jumped off towards him, leg extended to kick his head off! Sora barely got off the apron in time, avoiding the Diving Kick as he landed on the ground! Tidus glared at Sora on the outside, while the Keyblade Wielder simply offered a smirk from his position.

"Sora just jumped on the apron and tried to get in Tidus' business! That nearly earned him a kick to the head! What was he thinking?!" Church questioned.

"He wasn't take the pilfering of his moves lightly, and made sure Tidus got a piece of his mind!" Sarge stated.

"He did it first against Ratchet last week! Tidus just responded in kind!" Church replied.

Sora kept the smirk on his face while Tidus continued his glare before turning his attention back to the match...

...

...AND GOT A GALAXY STRIKE RIGHT TO THE SKULL!

"SON OF A B*TCH! GALAXY STRIKE RIGHT TO THE DAMN SKULL! TIDUS MAY BE OUT!" Church shouted.

"WHY USE AN OMNI-SMASH WHEN BEN'S GOT THE BEST DAMN ELBOW IN THE BUSINESS?!" Sarge questioned.

Tidus went completely limp upon getting hit and fell to the ground like a sackof hammers. Ben smirked cockily, patting his elbow proudly before picking up Tidus and lifting him onto his shoulders...

...

...AND PLANTS HIM WITH THE OMNI-SLAM!

"And the damn Omni-Slam connects full force!" Church stated.

"And I proudly say..." Sarge began.

Ben hooks the leg!

"You Just Got Sarge'd!" Sarge finished.

("Hero" by Pop Evil)

"Here is your winner, the UCA Hardcore Champion, Ben "Ten" Tennyson!"

The crowd was booing loudly as Ben got off of Tidus and stood up with a cocky smirk on his face, dusting his hands off as he said "As expected...the Hero Always Wins after all." Ben then had his hand raised in victory before being given his Hardcore Title and he proceeded to celebrate in the ring with it. All the while, Sora walked around the ring and towards the ring, keeping his eye on Sora with a cocky smirk on his face.

"Ben picks up the victory against the Cruiserweight Champ, but only because Sora provided the necessary distraction for him to win off of! Sora cost Tidus a win!" Church stated.

"Hey, Tidus tried to play a game of one-up with Sora, and he paid the price for it! Sora ended up one-upping Tidus, and he showed exactly what Tidus is dealing with at Final Clash!" Sarge stated.

Tidus finally came to and managed to catch sight of Sora backing up the ramp, who was smirking at Tidus the whole time. The Final Fantasy hero frowned angrily at Sora, who simply shrugged and said "Hey, should have kept your eyes on the prize, Tidus..." and then motioned for Tidus' title before leaving to the back. Tidus was given his title who took it angrily and slid out of the ring, going up the ramp to the back.

"And Tidus obviously is NOT happy about what just happened! He knows that it was thanks to Sora that he lost, and you can only imagine how much fuel this adds to the fire between them!" Church stated.

"Hey, Sora said it best, didn't he? Tidus should have kept his eye on the prize! No one to blame but himself for being such a stupid Blue after all! As such...we now know the victor at Final Clash is SORA! IT'S SO OBVIOUS! ACCEPT THAT!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben watched Sora leave angrily, and simply shruggd, and continuing celebrating his win. He climbed a corner and raised his title with an arrogant smirk, the crowd booing him to hell as he reveled in it all...

...

"Hey, Ben Tennyson...look up here. I have something to say to you..."

Ben was confused at the sound of the voice and turned towards it...as the crowd EXPLODED...

...

...as Senji Kiyomasa was seen on the titantron in a seemingly dim-lit unknown place, a very serious expression on his face.

"It's Senji Kiyomasa! He's on the Tron, and you can bet that after Ben twisted his past, that Deadman is pissed off as hell!" Church stated.

"Why should he be? Ben spoke the truth! Every bit of it! He's just being a sore Blue! We know Ben wins, but it's just how life works." Sarge stated. Ben rolled his eyes as he got off the turnbuckle and simply said off-mic "Oh, it's you, criminal...what do you want? To get schooled by me AGAIN?" Senji continued having the serious expression on his face before speaking.

"You know...when you started this whole thing between us...I just disliked you, kid. It was a STRONG dislike, but I just disliked you..." Senji said in a dark tone. "From there...you've screwed me out of a Chamber Spot, you've tried to make me seem like some immoral criminal to fit your ego, you've tried to run me over, you've stolen my title from me, and you even screwed me out of Money in the Bank...and my dislike for you grew more and more and more...but it stayed as dislike...until you did the one thing you should NEVER do with me..."

Senji then gave a dark glare at Tennyson through the camera. "You made thing PERSONAL with me...you took the deaths of those orphans and their caretaker that I looked after...you took the deaths of the CLOSEST friends I had back when I was a policemen...and you simply twisted the TRUTH to fit your own stereotypical view of me so it can FEED your giant ego, so you can feel good about being a damn 'hero'..." Senji then chuckled humorlessly. "...'Hero' my ass... Those people that you mentioned in your crap last week...they...they were SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE TO ME BEFORE I ENDED UP IN DEADMAN WONDERLAND! THOSE ORPANS DIDN'T DESERVE TO DIE, AND I BROUGHT THE BASTARD THAT KILLED THEM BEHIND BARS! OLD MAN DOMON AND THE OTHERS DIED IN THAT FIGHT IN MY PLACE BECAUSE THEY KEPT ME FROM FIGHTING SO I COULD LIVE DAMMIT! THEIR DEATHS ARE THE REASON I HAVE THESE TATTOOS ABOVE MY EYE! I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN THEM OR HOW THEY DIED, IT ALWAYS STICKS WITH ME, THE PAIN I FELT WHEN THEY DIED! BUT YOU WANT TO TAKE ALL OF THAT, THEIR DEATHS, AND TURN IT ALL INTO YOUR NEXT EGO TRIP?! ARE YOU F*CKIN' SERIOUS?!"

Senji simply shook his head, taking a pause before continuing. "But I guess it doesn't matter, huh? ...Because as long as you make yourself feel like the 'hero,' anything fair's game, right? That's how it is? Say and do anything you want because it's all for the 'greater good'? ...I've never been a saint...but you, kid...for a 'hero,' you make me look like Mother Teresa... At first...I just disliked you...but now, I HATE your guts. I really do, and now that you've made this personal, there's only one thing to do...grab your scrawny neck, make you bleed so much you're covered from head to toe, and then put you on one-way trip to hell and make sure you stay. But in simple terms...I'm gonna KILL your ass. And that's not some exaggerated threat...THAT...is a promise."

The crowd was cheering at Senji's proclamation, but Ben simply chuckled and waved off Senji. "Yeah, yeah, lie through your teeth about that all you want, it doesn't change that you're a criminal, and that I'm gonna win and end you." Senji simply chuckled at Ben's dismissive nature.

"You know, I knew you wouldn't take what I said seriously...but it doesn't matter. Because killing your ass...happens down the road." Seni stated. "Right now? I think it's about time I start paying you back for all you've done to me so far. And I think I have the perfect way to do that.."

Senji then walked a bit down wherever he was, the camera following him as he did so...

...

...until he came across BEN'S DX MACH 10 IN A NEARBY PARKING LOT A WAYS FROM THE ARENA! The crowd went "OOOOHHHH" as Ben's eyes widened in shock.

"HEY! LOOK! THAT'S BEN'S CAR! THE DX MACH 10! YOU DON'T THINK...!" Church shouted.

"HE CAN'T TOUCH THAT! NO DEADMANS ALLOWED! HE IS FORBIDDEN! WE MUST GET RED HANDS TO STOP HIM NOW!" Sarge shouted.

Ben was now shouting "GET THE HELL AWAY FROM MY CAR, YOU CRIMINAL! IF YOU TOUCH THAT, YOU'RE DEAD! YOU HEAR ME?! DEAD!" Senji simply grew a wicked grin as he looked at the car.

"So this is the famous DX Mach 10? The car that you ran over Autolycus with? And isn't this car that you tried to run ME over with?" Senji questioned. "You know...I should really repay you for that...and I now how to do that. With a little bit of renovating..."

Senji then activated the ring blades on his thumbs, and then sliced his forearms, and the blood from the cuts on it formed his Crow Claws Branch of Sin, the red curved blades sticking out of his forearms...

...

...AND HE STABBED ONE OF THEM INTO THE HOOD OF THE CAR!

"OH MY GOD! HE JUST STABBED HIS BRANCH OF SIN INTO BEN'S CAR! THIS WHOLE FEUD MORE PERSONAL RIGHT THERE AND THEN!" Church shouted.

"YOU DAMN DEADBLUE BASTARD! YOU SHALL ROT IN THE FIRES OF BLUE HELL FOREVER FOR THIS!" Sarge shouted.

Ben was freaking out in the ring, shouting "STOP IT! STOP IT RIGHT NOW, YOU SON OF A...!" but Senji continued to stab his Crow Claws into the hood and engine repeatedly. He even slashed at the hood a few times with repeated speed. After several moments of this, the hood was left an unrecognizable slashed mess, and the engine was completely and utterly useless. Senji then went to the side of the car, and tapped his foot against a tire.

"Hmmmm...the tires seem a little flat to me. I know exactly what to do in this situation..." Senji grinned.

Senji then STABBED his Crow Claw right through the TIRE, and even the RIM, going completel through it all! Senji pulled it out as the tire let out all the air, then he went to another tire, and SLICED IT IN HALF! The tire pieces fell to the ground, and the car was lopsided on one side! He then proceeded to go to the other side, and began destroying THOSE tires as well, all while Ben was completely and utterly pissed off in the ring, screaming obscenities. After all the tires were filled with holes all over, or sliced to pieces, Senji got on the top of the car, and looked over it.

"Huh...the top of the car...the trunk...and the windows...they don't seem very shiny. They may need a little buffer and shiner...The Crow's on the job, Ben...watch this..." Senji chuckled.

Senji then STABBED his Crow Claws into the top of the car, and began dragging it through the top of the car and down through the trunk, leaving a giant gash in it all! Senji then went to the windows and began slicing them into pieces, some of the glass getting into the car and stuck into the seats. Senji then glanced at the driver's seat door, and inspected it a bit.

"Huh...I think the hinges aren't up to par with current designs, Tennyson...we need to get it replaced.' Senji said...

...

...BEFORE SLICING THE DOOR OFF IT'S HINGES, THE CAR DOOR FALLING OFF THE CAR AND DOWN TO THE FLOOR! Ben was now completely and utterly seething with uncontrollable rage at what he was seeing. Senji then took a step back, and looked at his handiwork of Ben's car, and smirked.

"Hehehe...now that's some great renovation if I do so say so myself, Tennyson...now for the grand finale of it all. I'm sure you'll love this...watch closely." Senji chuckled.

He then dispelled his Crow Claws before placing his right palm over the top of his left hand. And then he began scraping his fingernails across the top of his hand, drawing blood from it. Senji then said "...Invisible Black...", before pulling his hand forward, and swinging the other hand out, a Crow Claw forming from the top of the hand...

...

...AND SLICED THE CAR UP INTO TINY PIECES AT THE SPEED OF SOUND! The crowd went "Oooohhh!" as the car was now perpetually sliced up perfectly, and all the pieces fell down the ground, and the car fell completely apart. Senji grinned greatly as the crowd cheered loudly.

"...Dead-Center..." Senji stated before turning to the camera...

...

...while in the ring, Ben was absolutely LIVID, filled with RAGE!

"Oh man...oh man...OH MAN! If Senji wanted to piss of Ben, he did JUST THAT! Look at him! His face is RED WITH RAGE!" Church stated.

"OF COURSE IT DID! WHAT SENJI DID WAS A TRAVESTY! HE SHOULD BE PUNISHED TO THE ULTIMATE EXTREME! THAT MONSTER!" Sarge shouted.

"What's wrong, Tennyson?" Senji grinned. "Shouldn't you be happy at what I did to your car? Trust me, it's an improvement."

Ben wasted absolutely no time in getting a mic from ringside, and speak right into it with ALL OF HIS ANGER...

"SENJI KIYOMASA, YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU DO THAT, YOU CRIMINAL! THAT WAS MY ONE OF A KIND CAR! YOU THINK THAT'S FUNNY?! DO YOU?! IT'S NOTHING MORE THAN BULLSHIT! YOU'RE NOTHING MORE THAN SCUM WHO THINKS IT'S FUN TO DESTROY THE PROPERTY OF THE GREATEST HERO THAT THIS UNIVERSE HAS EVER SEEN! YOU JUST SHOWED WHY YOU'RE A CANCER THAT I'M GONNA EXTERMINATE! YOU JUST DUG A GRAVE SO DEEP THAT NO ONE CAN DIG YOU OUT OF IT ONCE YOU'RE BURIED, NOT EVEN GOD ITSELF! YOU HEAR ME, KIYOMASA?!" Ben screamed at the top of my lungs.

"Hey...you're the one that has been making my life hell. I've just finally decided to retaliate in the biggest way possible. You know what they say about payback... But this is only the beginning." Senji stated. "Because if stealing my title was step one of your plan for me...then THIS was step one in MY plan for YOU...and trust me, I'm going to enjoy every second of it. Because at Final Clash...I'm cashing-in my rematch clause for the Hardcore Title!"

"OH BOY! It's ON! The rematch! Ben vs Senji for the Hardcore Title at Final Clash!" Church stated.

"Senji has just signed his FUNERAL! That's all he's done!" Sarge exclaimed.

The crowd exploded as Ben snarled in the ring but Senji wasn't done. "But you know...I don't want it to be a regular Hardcore Match. No...see, what I plan on doing to you just makes a regular Hardcore Match...feel NOT ENOUGH...so I have an idea on what kind of match I want to DESTROY you in. But knowing you, you'll probably reject since you're a coward, so-"

"A COWARD?! A COWARD?!" Ben shouted angrily, his emotions at a high here. "I AM NO COWARD! IN FACT, YOU'RE THE COWARD FOR DOING ALL THAT SH*T FROM THE TRON INSTEAD OF IN MY FACE! YOU SHOULD BE SCARED OF ME NOW THAT YOU'VE DONE THIS! YOU CROSSED A LINE YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE WITH ME! YOU WANT TO MAKE OUR REMATCH MORE VIOLENT?! GO AHEAD AND SAY IT AND I'LL ACCEPT IT! IN FACT, I'LL WELCOME IT! BECAUSE IT GIVES ME THE CHANCE TO FINALLY END YOUR CRIMINAL ASS AND KILL THE CANCER ONCE AND FOR ALL! SO SAY IT, KIYOMASA! SAY IT SO I CAN WORK ON SAVING UCA ONCE AND FOR ALL!"

Senji's grin...grew to DANGEROUS wicked evil levels at Ben allowing him to name the stipulation due to his anger.

"Hehehe...glad you think that way, Tennyson. Now I'll cut righto the chase...the match I want our rematch to be...the match I'm gonna to end you in...will be...

...

..."Sadistic...Madness!"

"OH MY GOOOOOOODDDD!" Church shouted.

The crowd EXPLODED at the stipulation, while Ben's eyes WIDENED in shock...before turning into absolute HORROR! Senji chuckled with a sadistic grin on his face before it went into mock contemplation.

"But wait...isn't Sadistic Madness...the match type I've NEVER lost? The match I'm 6-0 at? Beaten some of the best in NJPW and UCA in? The match I'm KING at?" Senji wondered. "And isn't it also...the match that your alternate cousin in CCW...nearly DIED in? ...What do you know..." Senji then chuckled darkly for a few moments before he glared at the hero. "...I'll see you in four weeks...Ben Tennyson..."

Senji then disappeared off the tron, leaving the crowd roaring, and Ben still in a state of SHOCK and HORROR.

"No...NO NO NO NO NO! This can't be! This can't be! NOT SADISTIC MADNESS!" Sarge shouted.

"YES, SADISTIC MADNESS! Senji has just suckered Ben in, and he put him in the WORST match possible! He wants to screw with Ben's head in the WORST way possible, and look, it's WORKING! Ben is PETRIFIED!" Church shouted.

Ben continued standing in the ring, the look of shock and horror still on his face...but that changed when the fans began chanting "YOU ARE F*CKED! YOU ARE F*CKED!" at Ben. This snapped him out of it, and he turned to look at the fans chanting...and his expression turned angry as he shouted at them.

"YOU'RE WRONG! I'M NOT F*CKED! I'M NOT! I'VE SURVIVED VIOLENT MATCHES LIKE THIS BEFORE! I'VE BEEN BATTERED AND BLOODIED, AND I'VE WALKED THROUGH IT! I'LL DO IT HERE AS WELL! IT'S SENJI WHO'S F*CKED! YOU HEAR ME?! F*CKED!"

Ben exited the ring and backed up the ramp, glaring at the crowd before speaking, this time in a slightly more calm manner after taking deep breaths.

"...Senji's crap isn't going to scare me...it won't, no matter what surrounds this match... Because when I've been through hell before...I can do it again. Senji won't win...you HEAR ME?! His Sadistic Madness Streak will become something I'll break...and Final Clash will be known as the END of the criminal known as Kiyomasa... And that's because...

...

...The Hero ALWAYS Wins!"

Ben then raised his Hardcore Title into the air, with an angry expression on his face, as the crowd continued to chant "YOU ARE F*CKED! YOU ARE F*CKED!"

The camera then went to backstage, where we see Wolfgang walking through the halls, muttering to himself angrily as he made his way for his match.

"Damn Freeman...play freakin' mind games...I'm gonna kick his head off...no way a rookie can beat me...he's gonna pay, that damn weenie..." Wolfgang muttered to himself until he heard some low voice. Wolfgang then turned around to find the voice, but found no source of it. Wolfgang was bewildered. "What the hell was that...?"

Wolfgang waited awhile until he simply shook his head and continued down the hallway, again muttering himself angrily, and then clapped his hands together in readiness, until he heard the low voice again, but this time it was louder.

"Okay, what the heck is THAT?!" Wolfgang questioned angrily, looking around for the voice. "I've had enough crap mess with me in the past few weeks, and I'm not having it anymore right now!"

Wolfgang whipped his head around as he continued to try to find it, but he could not find it. Instead, the voice only grew louder and louder, and it started sounding like some chant or sorts, and then it grew louder and louder. Wolfgang just growled at this.

"...I don't have time for this! I have a match coming up! I'm out of here!" Wolfgang snarled before simply making his way down the hall, passing a corner...

...

...and jumped back in shock and shouted "WHAT THE HELL?!" as a Voritgaunt suddenly appeared from around the corner. It's one giant red eye stared creepily at Wolfgang as it continued to chant words not of the English language, moving its hands up and down in rhythmic fashion. The Vortigaunt continued staring at Wolfgang like this until...

...MORE Vortigaunts suddenly came up behind the one in front of Wolfgang. Then they slowly began to advance on Wolfgang, chanting in unison while raising their hands up and down with green energy emanating from them. Wolfgang slowly backed up, wondering what the hell is going on.

"What the hell ARE you fre-" Wolfgang was cut off by bumping into something from behind. He turned around and was now faced with MORE VORTIGAUNTS! They stared at him creepily and continued the unknown chant, holding their glowing hands out and began advancing hands. The first Vortigaunts came up, and together, they SURROUNDED Wolfgang and advanced on them. Wolfgang was boxed in as they all grabbed him, their energy emanating and their chants the loudest they had been.

"HEY! GET OFF ME! STOP TOUCHING ME!" Wolfgang thrashed about, punching and pushing a few Vortigaunt away, but more just seemed to keep coming, and they had a good hold of him now. They slowly began to drag him down out of sight within the mass of bodies as he shouted "DAMMIT!"

...

...when the lights suddenly turned off where he was for a few moments! After a few moments, the lights came back on...and the Vortigaunts were gone, leaving Wolfgang lying on the ground in shock. He quickly sat up and got back up, looking around in shock, his body breaking out in a cold sweat what just happened.

"What the hell...what was..." Wolfgang breathed out...but then he realized who it was likely the work of, and his expression grew P*SSED. "You...damn FREEMAN! MORE of this SH*T?! Oh...you want to SCREW WITH ME?! Well...I got a message of my OWN for you, you WEENIE!"

Wolfgang then stomped down the hall towards the gorilla position, pissed off as hell thanks to this. But as he left, he didn't notice Gordon Freeman come out from around the corner behind Wolfgang, and simply stared at Wolfgang as he left, tapping his crowbar against his hand before he stared at a Final Clash poster on the wall with a focused expression on his face.

"Oh man, Gordon CONTINUES to screw with the head of Wolfgang! Now with what I believe to be are...Vortigaunts! These are some SERIOUS mindgames Gordon is playing!" Church stated.

"But the only thing that they're doing is ANGER the Bully, and guess what?! ONE-WAY TRIP TO HURTVILLE! Gordon is angering the Red gods, and he shall pay with lightning struck down on him!" Sarge stated.

Church simply stared at Sarge in an almost blank way...before sighing. "I swear, the sanity I have seems nonexistent...but either way, Gordon doesn't seem to care. Hell, he managed to BEAT THE CRAP out of Wolfgang at Last Stand! So I think he may feel he can handle Wolfgang!" Church stated.

"MISTAKE! MISTAKE! He got LUCKY at Last Stand, but at Final Clash, it WON'T be happen again under Red law!" Sarge stated.

("Song of the Sage" by Amorphis)

The crowd cheered loudly as moments later, Link came out onto the stage, and walked down before stopping on the rampway, looked out into the crowd and then raised his fists in the air, green pyro going off behind him. He then made his way down the ramp and entered the ring, climbing up a turnbuckle and raising his fists in the air.

"The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from the Land of Hyrule, weighing in at 238 lbs., "The Hero of Time" Link!"

"And Link is here in action on Flame, just weeks after putting on an absolute showcase with Matt Ishida! Link showed that despite all this time, he still has it here in this era!" Church stated.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, WHO CARES?! I sure don't! Link can put on all the great matches he want, he's still a dirty Blue! And that means you SUCK in this world!" Sarge stated.

"Well Link said that he feels great after that match, and that since he feels he won't get on the Final Clash card, he plans on getting back on track for his final run after Final Clash! But for now, he focuses on this match...with an old foe..." Church stated.

("Sleep Now In The Fire" by Rage Against the Machine)

The crowd was booing loudly as Wolfgang came out with a snarling and angry expression on his face, pissed over what happened earlier. He stomped down the ramp, shoving away any hands trying to reach out at him from the seats, and even shouted at a fan before getting in the ring. He glared out at the crowd, and then howled like a wolf to even louder boos before glaring at Link, who glared back.

"And his opponent, from Hillwood, weighing in at 245 lbs., "The Bully" Wolfgang!"

"Wolfgang is in ONE FOUL mood after what just happened in the back! More of Gordon Freeman's mindgames that are just f*ckin' with Wolfgang's head, and The Bully is getting more and more ticked at them!" Church stated.

"Gordon just continues to dig his own grave with this! A grave that's not six feet...BUT SIXTY FEET! That's how DEEP in trouble he is! And Gordon has just sentenced Link to have a taste of Wolfgang's anger!" Sarge stated.

"Link and Wolfgang are NO strangers to each other! These two went to war with each other for months in 1998! Final Clash main event, first-ever UCA Hell in a Cell...Wolfgang and Link despised each other! And it seems those feelings haven't gone away one bit!" Church stated.

The ref checked on both me before ringing the bell, and Wolfgang charged at Link angrily, but the Hero of Time ducked the Bully. When the Bully turned around, Link nailed him with several rights, backing him into a corner. He then tried to whip Wolfgang, but he reversed and whipped Link into the adjacent corner instead. Wolfgang ran at Link, but got caught with an elbow instead, and Link followed it up with a Dropkick, knocking Wolfgang down. Link then dropped down to get in a headlock, and wrenched on the head as hard as he could. Wolfgang gritted his teeth as he slowly stood up with Link in tow, and then managed to push him off and into the ropes. Link bounced off them, and ran into a Standing Shoulder Block by Wolfgang, followed by a Leg Drop! Wolfgang with a cover, but not even a 1 count! Link got up, but was greeted by knees to the skull before getting knocked down with a Clothesline.

"And there's that smash-mouth style of the Bully! Straight to face with the knees followed by that clothesline!" Church said.

"Wolfgang brings that Red brutality to the mix! He is ANGRY! And Link is the lamb to the slaughter! SLAUGHTER THE LAMB!" Sarge exclaimed.

Wolfgang stomped angrily on the fallen Hero for a bit before picking him up and throwing him into a corner. He then began to nail Shoulder Rams to the gut repeatedly on him before pulling him for a Short-Arm Clothesline. Wolfgang snarled before picking up Link and nailing a few fists to the face before hitting a Suplex. Wolfgang hooks the leg! 1...Quick kick out! Wolfgang quickly then placed in a Healdock on Link, returning the favor from earlier! Link gritted his teeth but managed to push himself up to his feet, and suddenly dropped and nailed a Jawbreaker on Wolfgang! Wolfgang staggered back, and Link then stood up and nailed a Jumping Knee Smash! The Bully was dazed, and Link grabbed him and nailed a Snap Swinging Neckbreaker! Link covers! 1...2...Wolfgang kicks out! Link picks up Wolfgang, but the Bully pushes Link into the ropes AND GOES FOR A WOLF'S KICK AS HE BOUNCES BACK! Link manages to duck it, grabs Wolfgang and plants him with an Inverted DDT!

"Wolfgang tried for the Wolf's Kick early! Link BARELY avoided getting his head kicked off, and planted Wolfgang!" Church stated.

"Oh why couldn't he have just kicked it off?! Why couldn't he have?! Our world would be so much better off it that happened! It's simply FACT!" Sarge exclaimed.

Link quickly dropped an Elbow across the chest of Wolfgang before picking him up, and then nailed a Suplex on him. Link however held on, stood up with Wolfgang, and then nailed a second Suplex. He then stood up once more with Wolfgang, and nailed a third consecutive Suplex. Link stood to his feet, and then nodded before heading towards the corner. He began to climb it to the top...

...

...WOLFGANG SUDDENLY SHOT UP AND PUSHED LINK OFF THE TOP TO THE OUTSIDE!

"HOLY CRAP! Wolfgang just sent Link off the top and to the damn outside with a SPLAT! Did you hear the way he LANDED?!" Church questioned.

"Yes I did, dirty Blue...and let me tell you, it was GLORIOUS!" Sarge exclaimed.

Link writhed on the outside in pain as Wolfgang recovered and growled at Link. He then exited the ring, grabbed the hero, and then threw him right into the barricade HARD! Wolfgang then grabbed his head and began bashing it over and over against the barricade, letting loose the rage in him right now before throwing him into the steel post! Link fell down to the ground in pain, but Wolfgang simply began stomping the living hell out of him!

"Good GRIEF, Wolfgang is just HURTING Link right now! Link is the target of Wolfgang's anger right now! He can't hurt Gordon right now, so he's hurting Link instead!" Church stated.

Once finished, Wolfgang picked up Link and threw him into the ring. Wolfgan slid in as Link managed to push himself to his feet...

...and Wolfgang caught him with a Spinebuster and made a cover!

Link kicks out!

"Link may have kicked out, but that was just to get him to exert energy! Wolfgang will be doing REAL COVERS soon enough!" Sarge stated.

Wolfgang quickly rolled Link onto his back and began kneeing repeatedly, bad intentions in every hit he manages to make! He then jumps and drops a big knee across the back before keeping it there, and then began to pull back on the head with a Chinlock, Link gritting his teeth! The ref asked if he wanted to quick, but Link simply shook his head! Wolfgang applied more pressure on the hold, but Link instead raises a hand...

...and began nailing Wolfgang with fists to the face! Wolfgang was stunned, but tried to hold onto the hold, but got nailed a few more times before being forced to let go. Link managed to get to his feet, but got a vicious knee to the gut, followed by a Gutwrench Suplex from Wolfgang!

"Gutwrench Suplex by Wolfgang! The Bully has gotten Link completely down and out here!" Church stated.

"This is the power of a Bully! The TRUE POWER! I hope Gordon is watching this carefully!" Sarge stated.

Wolfgang dragged Link up to his feet by his hair and sneered right in his face, then picked him up onto his shoulder and backed up He got a running start...

...

...Link managed to slip off of Wolfgang's shoulders and land behind him! Wolfgang turned around AND GOT A STEP-UP ENZIGURI!

"OH! Right to the skull! Link's patented Step-Up Enziguri! I wouldn't be surprised if Wolfgang lost some brain cells!" Church stated.

"Oooohhh, curse that Step-Up Enziguri! This is the reason why I hate that move so much!" Sarge stated.

"You only hate it when Link uses it!" Church replied.

"EXACTLY!" Sarge retorted.

Wolfgang was dazed on his feet as he stumbled around the ring, trying to keep standing, but Link stood and grabbed him...

...

...and planted him with a Lifting Reverse STO!

"Lifting Reverse STO! Picture perfect by Link!" Church called out.

Link covers Wolfgang!

...

Wolfgang kicks out!

"No way a simple move like that is going to put down The Bully! NO WAY!" Sarge exclaimed.

Link simply stood up and pointed to the corner, promoting a chorus of cheers from the crowd. He went over it and began to climb it. He reached the top...

...

...and Wolfgang stood and cut him off at the pass with a fist to the face! The crowd booed as Link was dazed and Wolfgang climbed up to the top and nailed a few more rights to the skull of the hero! Wolfgang then grabbed Link, and set him up. He then lifted Link up...

...

...Link held onto the ropes, stopping the Superplex from being performed! Wolfgang was annoyed as he tried to lift Link up a few more times, but Link was not budging! The Hero of Time then began to nail fists to the gut of Wolfgang, causing his grip to be loosened. Eventually, Wolfgang let go, and then Link nailed a STIFF forearm to the face of Wolfgang, sending the Bully plummeting to the mat! Link then steadied himself on the top turnbuckle...

...

...AND NAILED THE COURAGEUOS LEG DROP!

"And Link uses his famous courage to drop a MASSIVE Leg Drop!" Church stated.

"Oh, I HATE to say this, Wolfgang, but..." Sarge trailed off.

Link hooks the leg!

Wolfgang kicks out!

"You Just G-Oh yeah! Wolfgang kicks out! That's how a true Red does it!" Sarge cheered.

Link sighed in frustration before standing and picking up Wolfgang. He then placed him in an Inverted Facelock...but Wolfgang managed to get out of it and push Link into the ropes! Link bounced off and into the Wolfgang's arm...AND GOT A STANDING SIDE SLAM FOR HIS TROUBLES! Wolfgang then picked up Link, then bounced off the ropes...

...

...AND DROPPED HIM WITH A DISCUS CLOTHESLINE!

"And picture perfect Discus Clothesline! Show me a Blue who can do it better but you CAN'T!" Sarge exclaimed.

Wolfgang dropped to cover!

...

Link kicks out!

"But it's just not enough to put Link down! Wolfgang should know that after all these years!" Church stated.

Wolfgang was getting more frustrated at the kickouts before picking up Link, and placed him between his legs! He tried to lift him up for a Powerbomb, but Link suddenly countered with a Back Body Drop! Link regained himself as Wolfgang slowly got back up, and Link caught him with a Thrust Kick to the gut, doubling him over! Link then bounced off the ropes...

...

...and right into a knee to the gut, causing him to flip over it and onto his back! Link held his gut, but Wolfgang again picked him up, and went for a Gutwrench Suplex...

...

...Link flipped out of it and landed on his feet behind Wolfgang! The Bully turned around AND GOT HIS SECOND STEP-UP ENZIGURI OF THE MATCH! Wolfgang was dazed on his feet, but Link grabbed him and bent him forward, holding his arm out! He then stepped over his arm...

...

...and Wolfgang pulled his arm away in time to avoid the Triforce of Pain! He then pushed Link into the ropes, who bounced off them...

...

...AND RIGHT INTO A WOLF'S KICK!

"WOLF'S KICK! WOLF'S KICK OUT OF NOWHERE! LINK GOT HIS HEAD KICKED OFF!" Church shouted.

"That's what I'm talking about! Link..." Sarge began.

Wolfgang covered Link!

"You Just Got Sarge'd!" Sarge finished.

("Sleep Now In The Fire" by Rage Against the Machine)

"Here is your winner, Wolfgang!"

The Bully stood up with a scowl on his face as he took in his victory, looking out at the crowd. The ref came up to him and raised his hand in victory, but Wolfgang simply snatched it away before climbing the turnbuckle and then howled like a wolf, to much louder boos from the crowd.

"And Wolfgang picks up the victory against Link, gaining some momentum for Final Clash! And combine that with his anger, and that makes for a dangerous Wolfgang!" Church stated.

"You damn right it does! Gordon better know what he's in for in four weeks, because it's going to be an asskicking of a lifetime! Take that to the bank!" Sarge stated.

Wolfgang got off the corner, and then saw Link trying to get up. The Hero of Time shook his head before holding it, standing on his own two feet...

...

...AND GOT ANOTHER WOLF'S KICK!

"HEY! WHAT THE HELL?! WOLFGANG JUST BOOTED LINK'S HEAD OFF AGAIN! THE MATCH IS OVER!" Church shouted.

Link was down and out as Woflgang growled angrily before picking up Link and throwing him outside the ring. He then exited the ring and began stomping the hell out of to loud boos from the crowd, who were chanting "BULLIES SUCK! BULLIES SUCK!" Wolfgang then picked up Link and proceeded to slam his head repeatedly into the announce table repeatedly over nine times before grabbing him and throwing him into the steel steps, knocking them over!

"Wolfgang is just ASSAULTING Link right now! What the hell is th-HEY! GET AWAY FROM OUR TABLE!" Church shouted as Wolfgang began tearing apart the announce table.

"I don't think he's listening dirtbag! No, I think Link is about to go for a ride! And it's a ride that dirty Blues can't HELP but love!" Sarge proclaimed.

After clearing off the table, Wolfgang grabbed Link and dragged him over to it. He placed Link between his legs, and shouted at the camera "THIS IS WHAT AWAITS YOU, FREEMAN!" before lifting up Link...

...

...AND POWERBOMBING HIM THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!

"SON OF A BITCH! WOLFGANG JUST POWERBOMBED LINK THROUGH OUR DAMN TABLE! LINK'S LAID OUT RIGHT IN FRONT OF US!" Church shouted.

"AND NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, THIS WAS A MESSAGE SENT DIRECTLY TO FREEMAN! AND IT COULDN'T BE ONE SWEEETER!" Sarge shouted.

Wolfgang glared down at the broken body of Link amid the table remains as the crowd was jeering him, and just walked away. He walked around the ring, and then to the ramp, but looked at the camera following him and shouted "You want to play mind-games with me, Freeman?! You want to send messages?! Well, THAT was just a message of my own, WEENIE! And trust me, it's only a taste of what you'll get at Final Clash, because no way a rookie beats me!" before heading up the ramp.

"Message sent...Wolfgang made his own retort to the mind games, and it was an EMPHATIC one...Wolfgang not messing around...Gordon and Wolfgang...going to be a clash in four weeks." Church stated.

The camera went to the interview area backstage, and we see Tucker with a mic.

"Yo, what's up? One of the FWA-Winning Interviewers is here...and I'm sure that some chicks will be winning tonight! Bow Chikca Bow Wow!' Tucker stated, and ducked a glass bottle from a nearby chick. "Hey! That could have broken my eye! Watch where you're throwing! Sheesh...girls can act tough to get sometimes...anyways...please welcome my guest at this time...Bowser!"

The crowd booed as Bowser came out onto the screen, a vicious demeanor about him.

"Alright Bowser...last week, you Chokeslammed Sonic straight to hell through a table! Hell, that was topped on all the other pains he suffered last night, and because of that, he's not here tonight! And then after that, you qualified for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match! Any thoughts on all of this?"

Tucker held the mic out to him, but Bowser just remained silent, glaring at the poor Red vs Blue solider, who was now VERY intimidated.

"Uh...dude...don't kill me alright! I'm just starting to be competent recently in my series! I don't want to die before I do something really cool!" Tucker pleaded.

Bowser glared at Tucker...and then spoke...

"I'm keeping this short and sweet. At Last Stand, Sonic ROBBED ME of becoming World Champion. He SCREWED ME over in our match. I could've been main eventing Final Clash if it weren't for him...and he wasn't going to get away with that. Last week was simply the START of the suffering Sonic will go through. He's not here this week? ...Then I'll just give him DOUBLE the pain next week. He WILL pay for everything. As for Money in the Bank...these sheep...they should start PRAYING for the other men in the match. Because I will tear EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM APART to grab that briefcase. I am NOT failing again. I WON'T. At Final Clash...9 other men become casualties on my way...to becoming Mr. Money in the Bank. And THAT...is a spoiler."

Bowser then stomped away from the scene, leaving a frightened Tucker behind.

"...Is it okay if somebody pissed their pants right then and there?" Tucker questioned. "Okay...? ...Okay..."

"...Bowser means BUSINESS. He's PISSED...more pissed than usual, and he's got TWO targets in his mind. Sonic...and the Money in the Bank Briefcase." Church stated.

"All I can say is...Sonic's dead. We knew the dirty Blue well, but his time is up. Bye-bye, Sonic...you suck." Sarge stated. "And as for Money in the Bank...as much as I love some of the other men...can't bet against Bowser."

"Bowser's on a warpath, and I feel sorry for WHOEVER gets in his way...Sonic's going to retaliate next week, but damn...don't know how smart it will be...next week will be very interesting." Church stated. "But right now...we're about to hear certain words from a certain words..."

("Trainer Red Theme" from HeartGold/SoulSilver)

The crowd actually gave a thunderous MIXED reaction as the music played, and Red came out onto the stage. He had a very serious expression as he took in the reaction around him before tipping his hat and made his way down the ramp, wasting no time and entered the ring.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome "Pokémon Master" Red!"

"And here is the Pokémon Master himself! Red told Force that he wanted this time because he wants to say a few things about his upcoming Hell in a Cell Match with Blue, the match that will end an era! But man, look at this reaction! So mixed!" Church stated.

"Well what do you expect?! Some places may be fully idiots to cheer Red, but there are many people who are wizening up over the weeks and realizing that Blue's in the right! And that Red's in the wrong here! And Endsville obviously has some brains!" Sarge stated.

"Well, regardless of the reaction, Red doesn't seem too bothered by them...and we're about to hear what he has to say..." Church stated.

Red had a mic in his hand as he stood in the middle of the ring. He had a very stoic expression on his face as he looked around the crowd, the mixed reaction being heard all around him. Slowly...he raised the mic...

"Seventeen years...that's how long me and Blue have waged war with each other. From our beginnings in UCA in 1996...to the present time here on the Path to Final Clash...we have fought countless times, we have done unspeakable things to each other, we have pushed ourselves to our very limits. We have gone from a competitive rivalry...to a hate-filled grudge. And it all ends in four weeks at Final Clash...inside Hell...in a Cell." The crowd exploded at that very mention before allowing Red to speak. "And there can't be a more PERFECT place and a more PEFECT setting for this all to end. Because there is NO OTHER PLACE but Hell in a Cell to put an end to this! It's the ONLY WAY this will ever come to an end for us! And it happens at Final Clash...the stage we've battled each other TWICE before. The biggest stage of the company we helped to reach this level. Everything is set up for The End...and win or lose...me and Blue are finally done."

Red paused for a moment before going on more. "But I have something more to say...I'm sure you all know by now. To anyone who is willing to listen, Blue has GONE ON about his frustrations, problems, and hatred for me in UCA. He talks about how 'Red made my life hell' and 'he's the reason I don't get any recognition'! He's gone on and on...he's probably made me out to be the bad guy, and I am sure if you just heard HIS side, then that would most likely be the case...

...

...but what about MY side? I don't think it's been heard in THAT great of detail. It's been drowned in the sea of "Blue frustrations" for a long time now...but no more. Because it's time I give MY side! I tell you all why I HATE BLUE as much as HE HATES ME! And whether you agree with me or not, doesn't matter at this point. It's just time that you all heard from ME!"

Red took a deep breath, gathering everything before speaking. "A long time ago...back when we were kids, we were friends...I remember when we would go out to the yard with Gary and Ash and pretend to be our favorite wrestlers. I would be Ricky Steamboat, and he would be Ric Flair...we would mess around, pretend to wrestle, and just dream of the day of when we would get into the business. And soon...we got our wish as we began training under legends for the time we would debut. And that...was when the rivalry began...because like Gary, Blue began to get cocky, he began to feel that he was better then me, and he began to taunt me and say a few snappy insults. He chose me as his rival that he would ALWAYS get the better of, the guy he would face off and would come out on top as he rose to be the best. It was the beginning of our rivalry...I didn't want the rivalry, it was Blue who designated our rivalry, and I accepted soon, we both got signed to UCA in 1996, made our debuts as unknown wrestlers. I remember our very first match against each other...It wasn't hyped...it wasn't presented as a big deal...it was just a throwaway match in June of 1996 on Flame...and after a good nine minutes, I managed to get a roll-up on him. I beat him, and I remember what he told me afterwards...'You got a lucky fluke, that's all. Luck ends eventually. I'll beat you soon. I am better after all.'"

"...That was the excuse he would ALWAYS give after every time I beat him from 1996 to 2000...ALWAYS the excuse. He was a cocky, arrogant person who couldn't accept that he couldn't beat me and tried to make up a reason as to why he lost to me. He couldn't HANDLE it, because he was supposed to be better after all." Red shook his head. "The years went by, and we fought more and more...but somewhere down the line...something happened...something CHANGED in Blue...something happened...that caused our rivalry...to go down a dark path. When did it begin? Was it 2000? 2003? 2005? I don't know...it's hard to know anymore...but I know this...what we have...is something that isn't like other rivalries. We have something...that's gotten so out of control, that now it HAS to be ended for EVERYONE's benefit. And at this point and time, I keep getting letters from fans who have been saying "You are the reason Blue's like this!", "You should just let Blue beat you already!" and "You are a bastard for all you've done to poor Blue!""

"...I can only shake my head at all of these comments. I mean...I'M the bastard...?" Red asked incredulously. "...Have they FORGOTTEN what the hell Blue has done to me over the years?! Have they forgotten?! Let me take you back! There was 2000...when we were in Pallet Town, he saw my mother in the front row...AND SLAPPED HER ACROSS THE FACE WITH NO REMORSE! Just because she was MY mother and to get in my head! Or how about 2005...where the bastard attacked me backstage AND BROKE MY NECK WITH A PILEDRIVER OFF A CAR ON COCNRETE! Or let's go to recent in 2009, where he took a television AND BROKE IT COMPLETELY OVER MY SKULL! Or 2006...my favorite...where the bastard STOLE Gary's car...AND DROVE IT THROUGH MY HOUSE IN PALLET TOWN WHILE MY MOTHER WAS IN THE DAMN HOUSE!"

"In my view, NOTHING justifies the crap he's done to me! The suffering HE has put ME through because of his damn inability to BEAT ME! I CAN'T forgive a person who has done ALL OF THAT AND MORE TO ME! I CAN'T! And yet...people STILL think I am the bad guy, and tell me I should just let Blue beat me! Just lie down and let him get the three!" Red scowled. "So here's what I am told to do? ...Just disregard all my hard work...disregard everything the business stands for...and disregard even what BLUE HIMSELF has fought for...and just let myself take a fall like that...No...NO! I don't care WHAT you say! I WILL NEVER LET MYSELF GET BEATEN LIKE THAT! DOING SO WOULD BE AN INSULT TO THE FANS, TO THE BUSINESS, TO THE WRESTLERS IN THE BACK, HELL...EVEN AN INSULT TO BLUE HIMSELF! I FIGHT TO WIN AGAINST BLUE EVERY TIME BECAUSE IF I DIDN'T, I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO LOOK MYSELF IN THE MIRROR! I WOULD BE ASHAMED OF MYSELF IF I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL! AND AFTER ALL HE'S DONE TO ME, NO WAY IN HELL I WOULD LIE DOWN FOR BLUE AT ALL! NO WAY IN GODDAMN HELL! I FIGHT TO WIN EVERY TIME BECAUSE IF I DON'T, THEN I HAVE NO PRIDE AS A WRESTLER! AND I WON'T GIVE PITY TO BLUE WHEN HE LIKELY DOESN'T WANT IT!"

Red took a deep breath before taking off his hat. "We've faced off many times...and every time...I have WON...Yes, that is fact. I can't say anything against it. And it has been part of the reason why he's gone down this path...why he has become this person. Yet...I have heard him go on and on about how I am the reason for all his suffering...about the fans not recognizing his accomplishments and only thinking about his losses to me...about how everybody refuses to give him respect, and that he's gone through so much..." Red shook his head. "You know what I call that...BULLSHIT. Why? ...Because he REFUSES to see that people DO recognize his accomplishments! People DO respect him! People DO support him! Hell, he's got supporters RIGHT NOW!" Red then held the mic up and half the crowd began to chant "BLUE! BLUE! BLUE!" before bringing it back down "Blue DOES have respect! He has his own followings, he has people who support him! Hell, HE'S GETTING INDUCTED INTO THE UCA HALL OF FAME THIS YEAR! HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND IN WHITNEY! HE'S GOT WRESTLERS WHO THINK HE'S RIGHT OVER ME! HE HAS RESPECT, RECOGNITION, AND SO MUCH MORE THAN HE REALIZES!"

"...But no...no...he doesn't SEE that...he REFUSES to see that...because he ONLY focuses on the bad things, because that is the ONLY way he can justify ANYTHING he has done to me over the years! He's an INSECURE BASTARD THAT ISN'T SATISFIED WITH WHAT HE HAS AND WANTS MORE! In the end...the person responsible for his suffering...isn't me...it isn't the fans...it isn't GARY...it isn't management...it isn't Ash, Misty, Pallet Town, Professor Oak's, Tai's, Force's, or ANYBODY...it's...BLUE HIMSELF..."

The crowd gave a huge mixed reaction at this, with Red continuing. "Because Blue CAN'T ACCEPT that he hasn't beaten me...he can't MOVE ON and enjoy what he has, fighting on to do better next time, and look at the bright side! To get back up, do better next time, and focus on his career, friends, and family! But no...Blue doesn't want to do that...because he CAN'T HANDLE that he can't beat me! He's insecure in himself to the ultimate level, insecure in his own accomplishments and his own status! He's insecure in his place in the business despite being one of the best EVER! He can't handle that I always win, and so he has to disregard EVERY GOOD THING he has FOR ONE BAD THING in his career! He uses it as the bullshit reason to make this beyond personal between us! He uses it as the reason to do so many horrible things to me! He uses it as the reason to HATE ME SO MUCH! HE USES IT TO FEED THE OBSESSED MINDSET AND FRUSTRATED THINKING HE HAS! HE USES IT TO KEEP MAKING THIS WORSE AND WORSE!"

Red held his head down, silent for a few seconds before speaking in a soft tone. "...This has gotten to such a personal level...to such a level of hatred and rage...but...you all need to realize one thing...just...one..." Red slowly looked up...

...

...and the crowd was shocked to see RED IN TEARS!

"...I NEVER WANTED ANY OF THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE! I NEVER WANTED THINGS TO GET THIS PERSONAL! I NEVER WANTED FOR ME AND BLUE TO DESTORY EACH OTHER OVER THE YEARS! I NEVER WANTED TO DIVIDE PALLET TOWN! I NEVER WANTED THIS TO GET SO OUT OF HAND! ...AND I DIDN'T WANT TO HATE BLUE!"

Red stood there, stoic face and all as tears continued to fall down his cheeks as the crowd was silent before he spoke more.

"But Blue...he didn't care...because as long as I beat him...he was going to hate me and make things worse...hell...I TRIED to bury the hatchet, but no matter what I do, he refuses to bury the hatchet, and make things WORSE...Yeah, I fight back and also do crazy things to him. I've Speared him through the Minitron...I've literally BURNED him during the infamous brawl through Professor's Oak lab...I've Powerbombed his SISTER through the ANNOUNCE TABLE...I've even nearly snapped his leg in two. I've done TERRIBLE things to him, but HE starts thing between us EVERY TIME, and is the one who does the personal shit FIRST! HE KEEPS STARTING THINGS OVER AND OVER AGAIN, HE'S THE ONE THAT DEEMS IT NECESSARY TO PUSH THINGS TO ANOTHER LEVEL, NOT GIVING A DAMN THE CONSEQUENCES OF IT ALL, ABOUT WHO IT AFFECTS AND WHAT IT DOES TO OTHERS! HE DRIVES ME TO DO ALL THE SHIT I'VE DONE TO HIM! HE'S THE ONE THAT WANTED TO MAKE THIS RIVALRY BLOODY AND PERSONALY BECAUSE OF HIS OWN INSECURITIES!...I didn't want to hate him, I didn't want this...but after everything..."

Red suddenly gained a fire in his eyes. "...I HAVE COME TO HATE HIM AS MUCH AS HE HATES ME! I HATE HIM AND EVERYTHING HE STANDS FOR! I LOATHE HIM FOR EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE TO ME! I AM HIS INNER DEMON FOR NEVER BEATING ME...HE'S MY INNER DEMON FOR ALWAYS BEING ON MY BACK NO MATTER WHAT! HE WANTS THIS TO BE A BLOODBATH, IT WILL BE A BLOODBATH GODDAMIT!"

Red's tears were now ones of anger and rage as he continued to speak. "This isn't about face vs heel anymore...there's no good or bad anymore...this is about two men who despise each other to their very core...and whether you're with me or against me after this...it doesn't matter, because this ends one way or another. Maybe I AM as bad as Blue as some people say, but either I win and make him pay for everything he's done to me...or he wins and finally gets the win he's felt so insecure over not getting. But no matter what...when me and him meet in the Cell...it will be a war unlike any you have seen. Seventeen years finally culminates...and no matter who wins...this...ENDS. At Final Clash...one thing WILL be for certain...me and Blue...WILL GO STRAIGHT...TO HELL!"

Red had an intense expression as he had dried tears on his eyes now, the crowd stunned into shock. He then threw the mic down, putting his hat back on and exiting the ring. As he headed up the ramp, the crowd finally reacted, half of the crowd chanting "RED! RED!" and the other half "BLUE! BLUE!"

"...Damn...just...damn...I don't know what to say...Red laid it all out there...he laid out every feeling he had. And he proclaimed that it's no long about good vs bad, but rather just two men who hate each other...and it's all coming to a head at Final Clash..." Church stated.

"...It was powerful, I will admit...but no matter what Red says...he's going to get his at Final Clash...that's all I will say. Come Final Clash...Red will get Sarge'd finally!" Sarge stated.

As Red went up the ramp, the camera changes to the backstage area, where we see Blue Oak in his locker room, having watched everything Red said with an emotionless expression. After a few seconds of watching the TV, he suddenly spoke...

"You're right, Red...we are going to hell...we're going all the way down there...and when I'm done with you...you'll be left there as nothing more than a broken, bloody, disgusting, unrecognizable carcass...YOU have made MY life hell...and at Final Clash...I end my suffering...with YOUR destruction..." Blue spoke in a dark, foreboding manner.

The last shot seen before the camera changed to something else was Red looking back at the crowd with an intense, dark expression on his face before heading to the back.

UCA Rewind: Final Clash 2006

Reaching for the Money

"Final Clash 2006 was most well-known for it being the ultimate and final battleground of UCA vs Rival Empire, and understandably, it took center focus at that year's Final Clash. However, there was one match that wasn't about any of that, but rather of a different importance. One match that six men who didn't have anything to do with that war were fighting each other. It was the first of its kind in UCA..." Force stated.

The crowd cheered as ladders were set up all around the ring, and a briefcase was hung high above the ring as the anticipation: Ratchet flew down the ramp using Clank on his back as a copter before landing on a corner and raising his wrench; Invader Zim walked down the ramp with a sneer on his face, viewing everybody as this match as inferior life forms; Sly Cooper sat on a top of a ladder outside and shoulder his cane, a cocky-ass smirk on his face as he looked at the case; Jaden Yuki walked around the ring, in awe of the surroundings of him before he gained a big grin on his face; Jak fired his Peacemaker into the air which exploded above the ring for a lightning show for the fans, and then stared at everybody stoically, with Daxter on his shoulder shouting "GET THEM JAK!"; Trunks Brief climbed a corner with a serious look on his face and pointed to the briefcase, motioning that it would be his.

"The first-ever UCA Money in the Bank Ladder Match...man, that takes me BACK!" Sly chuckled. "That was back when I was a bit too cocky and a jerk...and back when we Sony Saints HATED each other. We were all in that thing, me, Ratchet, and Jak, and then you threw three other guys in Zim, Jaden, and Trunks, who all wanted that briefcase as badly as us."

"UCA was finally going with its own version of the Money in the Bank a year after the original matches happened." Ratchet stated. "A ladder match where the winner would have a contract for a World Title Shot anytime, anywhere for up to a year, and for many of us, who wanted their first World Title, or wanted to finally get another reign, that meant a lot..."

"How would I describe the Money in the Bank Ladder Match?" Jak said. "...Crazy...chaotic...insane...and everything in the middle..."

Ratchet and Zim traded fists in the middle of the ring, but then Zim noticed something and ducked in time as JAK NAILED RATCHET WITH A LADDER! Zim stood up, but GOT NAILED WITH THE SAME FATE! Trunks tried to run in, but got clocked right in the jaw with the ladder for his troubles! Sly saw Jak and tried to get out of there, but got nailed in the back of the head with the ladder! Jak looked at work and nodded and turned around TO GET THE LADDER DIVING DOUBLE FOOT STOMPED INTO HIM BY JADEN! Jak was down and hurting, and Jaden placed the ladder on top of him before getting on the apron...

...

...AND HIT A LADDER-ASSISTED SPRINGBOARD 450 SPLASH!

. . .

Sly was getting pounded on by Ratchet, but then thief suddenly poked him into the eye, and then threw him FACE-FIRST into a cornered ladder! Ratchet then stumbled into a Jumping DDT from Sly! Sly smirked arrogantly as he stood up and positioned the set-up ladder underneath the case and begin climbing it to the top...

...Trunks suddenly climbed up the same set of rungs as Sly did and tried to shove him off to reach the case! Sly wasn't having it as he punched Trunks as they were beside each other, and Trunks retaliated! And the two exchanged furious punches, but Sly missed a punch, and that allowed Trunks to grab him in a Full Nelson, adjust their positions on the ladder rungs...

...

...AND NAIL A DRAGON SUPERPLEX ON SLY FROM OFF THE LADDER!

. . .

Jak was currently trying to climb up the Ladder, but got a Springboard Dropkick off the ladder from Jaden for his troubles! Jaden stood up and tried to climb the ladder himself, but Ratchet suddenly came in, and brought him down off the Ladder for a Backstabber! Jaden rolled out of the ring in pain as Ratchet currently tried to climb the ladder up to the top...

...he reached up to the top...and he raised his hands towards the case...

...Zim suddenly climbed up a ladder near Ratchet's ladder...

...

...AND NAILED A DIVING ALIEN SPEAR TO RATCHET!

"I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS MAYHEM BEFORE, DIRTBAGS! AND BY GOD, I AM LOVING IT!" Sarge cheered.

"Man, did we beat the living hell out of each other. Whether we hated each other, or whether we were friends in a match against each other, we were willing to do anything..." Sly chuckled.

"The opportunity was too good to pass up for ANY of us. We kicked it up another notch if it meant getting that case at ANY COSTS...whether at our opponents, or our body's cost..." Jak stated.

"As the match went on, the stunts got crazier, and we just took each other out one by one..." Ratchet explained.

Jak was literally fighting with Zim on the top of the ladder and the two traded blows repeatedly, neither wishing to give up the chance to become Mr. Money in the Bank! Zim then suddenly nailed Jak with the case, and with him stunned...tried to unhook it...

...but Jak suddenly nailed brutal punch to the eye of Zim! Zim squealed "MY EYYYEEE!" as he held it, but then Jak grabbed Zim and dragged him over the top of the ladder and down to his side of it. He then set-up Zim as he was upside down on his side of the ladder and him a bit down from it...

...

...AND NAILED A JAKHAMMER OFF THE LADDER AND THROUGH A SET-UP STEEL CHAIR!

. . .

Jak literally had Trunks down for the count, and was pounding on him as he was set on the bridged ladder between the ring and the barricade! Jak then nailed his torso with a steel chair before getting on the apron! He then climbed up the turnbuckle with his back turned to Trunks...

...and Ratchet jumped on the apron and KICKED Jak right in the head! Jak was dazed and Ratchet took the chance to climb up the corner, grab Jak, and hook his arms as Trunks rolled off the bridged ladder...

...

...AND NAILED A SUPER TURBO VELOCITY OFF THE CORNER AND THROUGH THE BRIDGED LADDER!

. . .

Jaden slowly climbed the twenty-foot ladder towards the briefcase slowly, hurting all over but wanting the cas badly. He reached the top...

...but Sly suddenly climbed up to the top as well! Jaden saw him coming though, and caught him with several fists to the skull! Jaden then managed to push Sly off the ladder, but the thief landed on his feet! He bounced of the ropes, stumbled right into the ladder...

...he tipped it over...

...

...AND JADEN GOES FLYING OFF THE LADDER AND THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!

"OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! JADEN JUST FLEW OFF A TWENTY-FOOT LADDER AND THROUGH OUR TABLE! JADEN MAY BE DEAD!" Church shouted.

"I don't usually say this for a dirty Blue but...SOMEONE CALL 9-1-1!" Sarge shouted.

"It was insane to the max...we literally took each other one by one..." Sly chuckled.

"But in the end...only one got the case...only one got the honor of being the first UCA Mr. Money in the Bank..." Ratchet stated. "Only one had all their efforts rewarded...

Trunks was now climbing the ladder towards the case, but then Ratchet pulled him off! He nailed a few punches to the skull, but Trunks caught Ratchet with an Enziguri, and then nailed a Jumping Reverse STO! With Ratchet dealt with, Trunks began the trek up the ladder! He reached the top...he reached for the case...

...but Ratchet grabbed the bottom rung of the ladder, and pushed the ladder forward...

...

...TRUNKS FELL OFF THE LADDER AND CRASHED ONTO THE ROPES AND FELL TO THE OUTSIDE!

"OH DAMN! TRUNKS JUST CRASHED AND BURNED! RATCHET'S ALONE IN THE RING! GO FOR IT RATCHET! MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!" Church exclaimed.

Ratchet pulled the ladder back to an upright position, and he slowly began to climb it, using every fiber of his being to do so. He reached the top of the ladder...

...reached for the case...

...he grabbed the hook...

...

...AND SLY SUDDENLY NAILED HIM IN THE KIWIS WITH HIS CANE FROM BELOW! The crowd booed loudly as Ratchet held his lower regions in pain before Sly hooked his neck with his cane AND PULLDE HIM DOWN TO THE MAT!

"OH DAMMIT! SLY WITH THE DAMN CANE! HE JUST ASSAULTED RATCHET IN THE BALLS WITH IT! DON'T TELL ME IT'S GOING TO END LIKE THIS...!" Church stated.

"YES IT IS DIRTBAG! BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE IS OUT, AND NO ONE IS AROUND TO STOP THIS!" Sarge shouted.

Sly steadied and positioned the ladder as he set his cane down before climbing it to the top as fast as he could! He made it to the second-top rung...he then grab the hook...

...then the case...

...

...AND UNHOOKED IT FROM ITS LATCH! SLY HELD UP THE CASE TRIUMPHANTLY WITH A SMIRK!

"Here is your winner...and Mr. Money in the Bank...SLY COOPER!"

"DAMMIT! SLY STOLE IT! SLY IS MR. MONEY IN THE BANK!" Church shouted.

"I came so close...so close to becoming Mr. Money in the Bank...but then Sly came out of nowhere and used his cane to hurt me where it hurts the most...to be quite honest...I wasn't surprised...but disappointed." Ratchet stated.

"Sly used every dirty trick in the book back then in order to secure that victory. He was above NOTHING in order to get that victory. And the sad thing is...even as a good guy, he probably would have done the same thing..." Jak said.

"Hey, I am how I am, good guy or bad guy." Sly chuckled. "I did what I had to do...some actions I regret, but I don't regret how I won the first Money in the Bank Ladder Match. I made history, and months later, cashed-in to win my FIRST World Title...now THAT...is awesome right there. And I'll always remember it fondly."

The final shot was of Sly sitting on top of a ladder, his signature cane shouldered and the Money in the Bank briefcase held high above him, a victorious smirk on his face.

A/N: Man, I am taking a LOOOONNNGGG time with these updates, aren't I? Well, at least I got this done before college starts for me, so I hope you all enjoy it.
