49. Hardcore Title Sadistic Madness

The camera went back to ringside, where Church and Sarge were at ringside...and their entire demeanor was that of uncomfortable acknowledgement.

"...Well Ben is in the right mindset for this match. He's looking to destroy the guy he sees as the 'villain' in all of this...but can he survive Sadistic Madness?" Church asked.

"I'm all for Ben, I'm BEN FOR LIFE! He's a HERO! A GREAT ONE! GREATEST OF THE GREAT! ...But even I am uncertain about what's going to happen to Ben. This match...oh boy, it's going to be violent." Sarge admitted.

"Don't you love violence?" Church questioned.

"I DO, DIRTBAG! But even I know when the violence is going to get...ugly, even for MY standards. And this match...with the people in it...it's going to be a match that'll test a lot of people's fortitude..." Sarge admitted.

"Damn right. Hell in a Cell is going to be brutal...but in terms of pure and utter violence..." Church began...

...as the match graphic showed, and a red and black blur was shown riding through the city, Senji Kiyomasa above the blur as he held up his forearm in front of his body, his Crow Claw sticking out of it, and a grin on his face before slashing through the air as a "Crow" image was right behind him, and then it showed a green blur riding through the city, Ben Tennyson above it as he he held up his Omnitrix with a on his wrist with a smirk before miming 'Going Hero,' slamming his hand on it as the Omnitrix symbol was behind him...

...and it showed the massive star from before, and then suddenly something begin to slice across the star repeatedly, spilling blood from the wound as it began to stain the star until it covered it completely...then the blurs crashed into the star, causing the blood to splatter onto the screen, covering it before it slid down, showing Senji on the right side with an eager grin as he gave a "bring it" gesture before making a cutthroat motion, and Ben on the left as he held up his Hardcore Title with one hand, patting it with a sneer before he held up a finger to indicate he was the "1" as these words were spelled in blood underneath them: BEN TENNYSON VS. SENJI KIYOMASA - SADISTIC MADNESS: UCA HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP.

"...this one is going to set the bar SO DAMN HIGH. If not, I'm going to be SURPRISED. This is a match that is personal, and considering the mindset of both of these guys...this is going be a complete and utter bloodbath. So for anyone with families...don't watch this match. Just DON'T." Church warned.

"Yeah, even I may not fully stomach this if my instincts are right. AND I LOVE VIOLENCE AND MURDER. That should say a lot. We've had matches like this before...but they may be nothing compared to THIS one. Oh this is going to be something to SEE." Sarge proclaimed.

"Everyone...it is time...for the Sadistic Madness..." Church said as the bell rang three times, and it went to Cait Sith in the ring.

"The following contest...is the Sadistic Madness Match for the UCA Hardcore Chanpionship!" Cait Sith announced to BLOODTHIRSTY cheers from the crowd. "The rules for this match are as follows. They are no disqualifications or countouts. Anything goes, and a competitor can not pin or submit their opponent until they make him bleed. The first one to gain a pinfall or submission in the ring while their opponent is bleeding will be declared the winner and the UCA Hardcore Champion!"

The crowd cheered massively, wanting to see bloodshed already as weapons were shown crashing into each other, fighting each other until a hammer suddenly slammed itself repeatedly into them, until it made a graphic of the UCA Hardcore Championship...

...but then the lights went out once more for the night...to the annoyance of Sarge.

"HOW MANY TIMES MUST WE HAVE OUR LIGHTS GO OUT?! THE REDS ARE NOT AMUSED! IN FACT, SIMMONS, GET ON THE CASE AND-" Sarge was interrupted...

...by the playing of pipers in a methodical fashion...which was soon accompanied by the pounding of the drums...

...which was then accompanied by an electric guitar for a haunting melody, every chord of the guitar causing a flash of red lights in the darkness as smoke began to cover the stage and...

Time is turning

The quest for gold

They are lost

They are twisted

They are twisted and old

Time is frozen

The souls are sold

Grey days ahead

For the twisted

For the twisted and old

("They Are Lost" by Last Remaining Pinnacle)

...and when the lyrics began, the stage and ramp were covered in a blood red light, which showed SENJI KIYOMASA on said stage, wearing a hooded variant of his black coat, the hood over his head, and he also wore a Steampunk-like Crow mask over his face, to give him the appearance of a "crow" indeed. His head and arms were held down as his forearms were crossed against each other, and his "Crow Claw" Branch of Sin blades jutted out of his forearms also crossed together as he stood there for a few seconds in that pose. Then he slowly uncrossed the arms, slowly lifting up before he splayed them to their sides, angling the Crow Claws so they were horizontal, almost as if they were wings and he just opened them up. He then began to slowly make his way down the long rampway of Final Clash, arms still splayed as if he was "flying" down to the ring with his wings.

"...Senji Kiyomasa coming out in...well HAUNTING style. And Sarge...Sadistic Madness is HIS match." Church stated. "He has been in six of these matches throughout his entire career...and he was won every one. Kenpachi Zaraki, Roronoro Zoro, and Orochimaru in NJPW. Chaos the Hedgehog, Jecht, and Blue Oak in UCA. These are the list of names he has beaten, which shows just what he is capable of in this match. 6-0 in Sadistic Madness. And for this particular match...he has one goal...DESTROY BEN TENNYSON. Tennyson has done so much to this guy, as he listed earlier in this night, for the sole reason that he is a 'criminal. ' And it's put the 'Crow' on a warpath to take out Ben. To Senji, this is personal, and he wants Ben Tennyson BAD. He wants Tennyson to SUFFER. And he WANTS that Hardcore Title of his back. It was STOLEN from him, and you can tell he's going to take out two birds with one stone."

"Why is he acting like he's been the victim?! He's the CRIMINAL! He's the LAWBREAKER! Ben's doing ALL OF US a favor, and ending this guy before he causes anymore damage in UCA! Everything Ben's done to Senji has been JUSTIFIED! JUSTIFIED I SAY! He didn't deserve anything that he got, he would've ruined so much if he won any or kept anything. Ben saw that, but Senji can't handle that he's in the wrong! So he's trying to MURDER Tennyson here! How can we allow this?! SOMEONE CALL 9-1-1, SO WE CAN GET THE POLICE! DAMMIT! I hope Senji ROTS for this! And he better not win! That would cause everything to go horribly! DON'T let him become Hardcore Champion again, we can't have him " Sarge exclaimed.

"Senji has been a part of several Final Clashes, this is not his first, he's even had a Sadistic Madness Match at Final Clash before, but this one may trump that. Because this one is more personal than most of them. And trust me, it's going to be violent." Church said.

Time is turning

The quest for gold

They are lost

They are twisted

They are twisted and old

Senji reached the ring, and climbed up the steel steps, his "wings" still outstretched before he entered through the ropes, and went over to a corner, climbing it to the top, once again splaying out his arms with his Crow Claws like wings. After a few seconds, he brought a hand up to his Crow mask, and lifted it up, revealing the sadistically smirking face of Senji Kiyomasa to loud cheers, who said "Dead-Center" before pulling the mask off, causing the hood to fall off as well. He then threw the mask into the crowd and got off the corner, dispelling his Crow Claws back into his arms as he stood in the ring.

"Hey...wait a minute...HE WAS BLEEDING! Those Crow Claws were made of blood, he basically already had himself bleeding! HE SCREWED HIMSELF! HAH! Reds win!" Sarge cheered.

Indeed, Jimmy Aaron, the ref officiating this match (the poor bastard) went over to check on Senji, worried that this match would be ruined as he looked up at the forearms...to see NO BLOOD at all. The arms weren't bleeding at all, and the cuts were barely there. Senji just smirked, and said "You happy now? I'm ready to go." Jimmy was perturbed, but backed off at that.

"...Oh of course, the Reds can't have nice things." Sarge groaned.

"Being a Deadman that can control your own blood DOES come in handy, and those cuts are so shallow I doubt they can be reopened. But Senji WON'T be able to use those powers. If he bleeds, he'll be bleeding all the way. And I don't think he would have it any other way as he looks to become a FIVE-TIME Hardcore Champion tonight." Church said.

Senji paced back and forth in the ring, waiting antsily as he held up five fingers, to indicate he was about to get his title back for the fifth time, before shouting "COME ON OUT, TENNYSON! I'M WAITING!" until...

Yeeeaahh!

I'm barely breathin'

I'm barely alive

When did it all come tumbling down?

Your actions speak louder than all of the thunder

That you brought back down on me

I won't be, I won't be your hero (I won't be your hero)

I won't be your Superman (I won't be your hero)

Everything I did was for you, everything you said was a lie

My pain, your gain, who's your hero today?

Who's your hero?

("Hero" by Pop Evil)

The crowd gave out loud boos as the music played, green lights flashing all over the arena, and soon enough, out came BEN TENNYSON, who wasn't wearing any form of wrestling gear. Instead, he was wearing blue street jeans, a black tank top reminiscent of Ambrose, black boots, and his signature "10" jacket. He didn't come for a wrestling match...he came for a FIGHT. The Hardcore Championship was worn around his waist, and he still had the same look as he had backstage, staring darkly at Senji in the ring, a wild look in his eye before he began to make his way down the ring. No flashy entrance despite the person in question, this time...it was all about TEARING A CRIMINAL APART.

"And here's Ben Tennyson who for all intents and purposes STARTED this whole thing." Church stated. "HE'S the guy who cost Senji a spot in the Elimination Chamber because of his "criminal record," and as the "hero," he took exception to that. He's done a lot of shit that Senji already ran through, most prominently being the Hardcore Title he stole, AND bringing his past into this. That made it personal...and Ben has been put through hell since then. Senji has NO MERCY for Tennyson at this point, and it's forced Ben to a place he's rarely ever been. A place where there are no heroes...only survivors. They say "a pissed off Tennyson is a vengeful Tennyson"...well let's see what happens when you take out the MENTAL INHIBITIONS to go with that. The things that keep a Tennyson SANE and RIGHT despite their anger...what happens when THAT goes?"

"What happens is PURE AND UTTER destruction!" Sarge shouted. "Senji should have NEVER pushed Ben to this! And now he's gonna suffer! Because for once, Ben isn't concerned about being a "hero" in ANYTHING he does, all he wants is Senji's blood covering the mat! Senji says he's gonna kill him?! Well guess what, DIRTBAG, Ben's gonna kill him right back! I'm SURE OF IT! He's not the Hardcore Champion FOR NOTHING, you know! He may not be a Hardcore specialist, but he's the GOOD GUY, DIRTBAG! And you heard him, THE HERO ALWAYS WIN! And we're going to see a Red win all the way! And we're going to see red ALL OVER Senji! And I am going to enjoy THAT at least! He's going to be the 1 in 6-1!"

"Ben with several Final Clashes under his belt, especially a Money in the Bank win in 2007, but this will definitely be his most violent Final Clash ever. Because he's fighting not just for his title, but also for his LIFE..." Church said. "And to him...he's fighting to END a criminal for UCA..."

No more second chances,

No more lies, this time, you're goin' down (down, down, down)

Your days are empty,

Your nights are blind,

I won't be the reason, you fall this time.

Ben walked up to the ring and jumped onto the apron, never taking his eyes off the Deadman as he stared at him before he slowly entered the ring. He walked over to a corner, opposite of Senji and slowly pulled his Hardcore Title off his waist and held it in his hand as they waited on Cait Sith, who was still in the ring...

"And now, introducing the competitors for this match. First, the CHALLENGER...from Deadman Wonderland, weighing in at 243 lbs...he is 6-0 in Sadistic Madness Matches...he is "The Crow"...SENJI KIYOMASA!" Cait Sith announced.

The crowd cheered loudly as Senji raised his fist high in the air before he pointed towards Ben and said "You're going down, Tennyson..."

"And next, from Bellwood, Illinois...weighing in at 232 lbs...he is "The Hero Who Will Save UCA" (his words, not mine)...the UCA Hardcore Champion...BEN TENNYSON!" Cait Sith announced.

Ben raised the Hardcore Title up into the air with one air for all to see as the crowd booed, while using his other hand to hold up a finger, as he muttered "The 1...in 6-1, criminal..." before he handed the title over to Jimmy Aaron, who then raised the title for all to see, and then handed it over to ringside.

"That's what this match is about at it's core...the Hardcore Championship...and a lot of bad blood. And these guys are going to KILL each other for it..." Church stated.

The crowd began to chant "SENJI'S GONNA KILL YOU! SENJI'S GONNA KILL YOU!", pretty much telling the two how they thought this match was going to go, and Ben just glared at them before turning back to Senji. Senji pulled off his coat and threw it out of the ring and cricked his neck, and Ben grabbed hold of his jacket, ready to pull it off. However, he stared at Senji and said...

"Hope you don't mind me making you suffer...those kids you got killed ought to be happy when I do the deed."

Senji stared at Ben stoically at those words...and then he actually LAUGHED. He was laughing like crazy for a few moments, before it devolved into a chuckle and he replied...

"Ooohh, I am SOOOOO gonna enjoy killing your ass."

And Senji CHARGED LIKE A WILD BULL TOWARDS BEN! BUT BEN DUCKED SENJI WHO STOPPED AT THE CORNER, AND WAS MET WITH THE VICIOUS RIGHTS OF TENNYSON AS JIMMY RANG THE BELL!

"OH SHIT, IT'S OFF TO A VIOLENT START! SENJI VS BEN! SADISTIC MADNESS FOR THE HARDCORE TITLE! IT'S GONNA BE NASTY, VIOLENT, AND EVERY OTHER WORD YOU CAN THINK OF FOR THIS!" Church exclaimed.

Ben kept on laying on the right hands, determined to cave in Senji's head to get him to bleed, but the Deadman was just pissed off as he GRABBED Ben by the collar and THREW HIM over the top rope! Ben fell down to the outside, and Senji followed him out there and grabbed him, but the Champ suddenly nailed an Uppercut, and nailed a few more rights on him. But Senji wasn't having any of it as he threw him head-first into the barricade as hard as he could, before SANDWICHING his head into the barricade with a hard Knee Strike! Ben fell down, holding his head as Jimmy checked for blood, but there was none on the face of Tennyson. Senji didn't like that so he stomped on the face of Tennyson several times, taking his hate for the "hero" out on him before he picked him up. He eyed the steel steps and quickly Irish Whipped Ben towards them, but Ben reversed and Senji went face-first into them instead! Senji held his face in pain as the steps remained standing, but then Ben Dropkicked Senji's face right into the steps!

"And Ben Dropkicking Senji head-first into the steps! This match already getting off to a vicious start!" Church called.

"They don't call it Sadistic Madness for nothing, dirtbag! These two are going to do everything they can to each other, and it'll be glorious!" Sarge stated.

Senji fell to the ground in pain, but before Jimmy could check on Senji, Ben quickly yanked him up and slammed his head onto the steps! He then did it again, and again, and again, and again, repeating the action over and over with a wild look on his eye! After eight smashes into the steps, Ben then gave Senji a DDT onto the floor! Ben demanded that the ref see if Senji was bleeding, and he did so...but Kiyomasa was not bleeding one bit. Annoyed, Ben dragged Senji up to his feet and down ringside, looking to throw him into the barricade, but Senji reversed and threw Ben into the barricade instead! Ben gritted his teeth as he leaned against the barricade, but Senji booted Ben over the barricade and into the crowd! The crowd cheered loudly as the action spilled out to them, and the Crow wasted no time climbing into the crowd himself, and nailed a few rights to Tennyson to send him reeling. He then shouted "SOMEONE GIVE ME A CHAIR!" and lo and behold, a fan tossed him his chair. Senji caught it and said "Thanks" before SLAMMING THE CHAIR OVER BEN'S SKULL!

"And a CHAIR OFF THE SKULL! These two in the crowd as they keep targeting each other's heads! That's been the entire focal point so far!" Church said.

"They want to make each other bleed and bleed quickly! That's how you win in Sadistic Madness, so that's what they're gonna do!" Sarge explained.

Ben fell down to the ground, holding his head as Jimmy, who was following them, checked on Ben's head...and NO BLOOD! Ben was clean of blood, but Senji looked to fix that as he waited for Ben to get up and SLAMMED the chair over his skull once more, sending him stumbling away before he fell down. Senji wasn't satisfied though as he walked over to the Champ, holding the chair as he watched Ben get up WHEN BEN SUDDENLY DROPKICKED THE CHAIR INTO HIS FACE! Senji went down from the move, and Ben managed to get up to his feet before grabbing the Deadman and dragging him over to a set of electrical equipment that was used to keep the show, and throwing him FACE-FIRST into it. Senji fell to his knees as sparks flew from the equipment, and Ben quickly grabbed the chair Senji had before cracking it ACROSS the back of his head, causing him to fall down!

"And Ben with the chair across the back of the skull! This is getting downright vicious already!" Church stated.

"It's Sadistic Madness, and they're BOTH being overcomed by it, dirtbag! This is to be expected!" Sarge said.

Senji lied across the ground on his stomach, holding his head, while Ben eyed the electrical equipment with a strange look. He then went over to the other side of it, placing a hand on it...BEFORE HE SUDDENLY PUSHED THE SET OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT OVER TOWARDS SENJI!

"OH WHAT THE HELL?! WHAT IS HE...?! IS HE NUTS, HE JUST TRIED TO CRUSH AND ELECTROCUTE SENJI!" Church called.

"YOU DAMN SURE HE DID! AND THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN THIS MATCH! AND IT COULD ONLY HAPPEN TO A DIRTBAG LIKE SENJI!" Sarge shouted.

The crowd gasped in shock as Ben watched the sparking of the electrical equipment as it fell over onto the ground, a crazed look on his eye before he walked over to see Senji crushed under it...but Senji WASN'T. Ben was confused...UNTIL THE DEADMAN SHOT UP FROM THE OTHER SIDE AND LEAPED OVER THE SET TO GET ON BEN! Ben was brought down as Senji laid down the right hands on the skull of Tennyson, even MORE angry after what he tried before picking him and HURLING him over the set and down onto the concrete floor hard! Senji quickly grabbed the chair once again and advanced on Tennyson, who crawled over to the steps that led up the stands and began to make his way up them.

"Senji's still alive and...now Ben's trying to get away! He's climbing up the steps and further into the crowd, but I don't think that'll stop Senji in any way!" Church exclaimed.

"GET AWAY BEN! So you can regroup and turn into Way Big!" Sarge stated.

"He can't do that, that's against the rules!" Church reminded Sarge.

"Oh...well shit." Sarge deadpanned.

Senji just shook his head before he followed Ben up the steps, chair in hand, and after climbing a bit, Senji had easily caught up to Ben and SLAMMED the chair into Ben's back, causing him to fall over onto the steps. Senji wasn't satisfied as he slammed it over Ben's back AGAIN! The crowd was LOVING the violence as one fan even offered his beer can to Senji, and the Deadman took it and said "Thanks, I was thirsty," before taking a sip THEN SLAMMING IT OVER THE BACK OF BEN'S SKULL, CAUSING BEER TO SPRAY EVERYWHERE! The crowd exploded as Jimmy had climbed up the steps and checked on the back of Ben's head...

"HEY! That was perfectly good beer! You don't go wasting that! ...And how dare you crack it over Ben, he didn't deserve that!" Sarge exclaimed.

"Yeah, well, it happened either way, and it may result in blood here and now..." Church pointed out.

...and NO BLOOD STILL. Ben's head survived getting that beer can to the skull and Senji just shrugged at that, so he just grabbed Ben by the hair and dragged him up to his feet...AND BEN SUDDENLY SWERVED AND THREW A CUP OF SODA INTO HIS FACE! The soda Ben got from a fan got into Senji's one eye and he dropped his chair, holding the eye as he was blinded...

...AND HE WAS GRABBED AND COMPLETE SHOTTED FACE FIRST INTO THE RAILINGS THAT WERE PLACED ACROSS THE MIDDLE OF THE STEPS!

"OH! Ben repaying the favor with the beer with some soda of his own! COMPLETE SHOT INTO THE RAILS! Senji didn't see it coming!" Church stated.

"See what happens when you try to fight a hero whose lost it?! THAT'S what happens! Learn your place, Senji!" Sarge proclaimed.

Senji laid across the railing in pain, and the ref checked on his head...and IT IS NOT BLEEDING. No blood, but Ben wanted to fix that as he grabbed Senji's body and put it through the metal railings, having him hang through the middle of it, and then pulled it back and back with a modified Crossface, using the top part of the railing to bend Senji's back even further as he pulls on it. Senji grits his teeth in massive pain as Ben keeps it going for at least fifteen seconds before letting go, and then went over to the side, and proceeded to knee Senji in the face. He grabbed hold of the face and began to knee it repeatedly, intent on breaking Senji's nose if needed! The knees got more and more vicious, more and more stiff as Ben growled...

...until Senji CAUGHT a knee...and he suddenly PULLED the leg through the railing as Ben struggled until it was right where his upper body was...which was NOW FREE as he stood up and glared at Ben. The Champ's eyes widened and that's all he got as he WAS LARIATED DOWN HARD BY SENJI...

...AND WAS PROMPTLY SENT ROLLING AND FALLING DOWN THE STEPS TO THE GROUND BELOW IN A NASTY MANNER!

"OH GOD! BEN WAS JUST SENT DOWN THOSE STEPS AND...SHIT, MAN, THAT WAS JUST BRUTAL THE WAY HE WENT DOWN!" Church winced.

"NO, BEN! NOOOOOO! YOU WERE SUCH A GREAT HERO TOO! YOU WERE TOO YOUNG!" Sarge cried out.

The crowd went "Oooohhh" as Ben was sprawled out on the ground, pain all over as Senji stood up and asked where the hell his damn chair was. Suddenly, it was tossed to him by a fan a few rows below, and he offered his thanks. He then waited for Ben to get up, and indeed he saw him stumble to his feet and HE RAN DOWN THE STAIRS FULL STEAM, JUMPED AND RAMMED THE CHAIR ACROSS BEN'S SKULL! Ben fell into a heap on the ground, and the ref quickly checked on his head...

...and he's STILL not bleeding. Senji didn't mind as that meant he could inflict more pain, and he grabbed Ben and lifted him over his shoulder and carried him through the crowd to the barricade. Once he arrived, he threw him over it and down to the ground with a pained grunt. Senji got back to ringside as Ben tried to get up, but Senji yanked him up and THREW HIM FACE-FIRST INTO THE STEEL POST! Ben was dazed off his feet as Senji threw him back into the ring and began to search under it.

"Ben's STILL not bleeding, but Senji showing off his Sadistic Madness expertise as he continuously targets the skull! He wants a bleeding Ben, and he's putting every attack he can into making that happen!" Church stated.

"This is NOT what you want with Senji in this match! HURRY BEN! Put on the Hero's Come Back...or do something to turn things around!" Sarge cried out as he referenced an awesome Japanese song.

The crowd exploded as Senji had thrown the trash can filled with weapons into the ring, and slid inside it as Jimmy had declared Ben was NOT bleeding still. Senji took out a steel baseball bat from the trashcan, twirling it in his hand before he turned to Ben. And said "hero" was on his knees now, and held up his hand, almost as if he was begging for Senji to back off. Senji just shook his head and advanced on Tennyson...

...

...WHO WENT FOR A LOW BLOW AS SOON AS HE CAME CLOSE! BUT SENJI CAUGHT THE ARM BEFORE IT CONNECTED! Ben's eyes went wide as Senji growled out "Yeaaahhh, not working a SECOND time..." before he pushed the arm away AND SWUNG THE BAT ACROSS BEN'S SKULL!

"Tennyson tried to sucker Senji into a low blow, but the Deadman remembered last time! Not falling for it AND BAT ACROSS THE SKULL! Senji swung for the fences and got all of it!" Church called.

"DAMMIT, YOU SHOULD BE DUMB LIKE ANY CRIMINAL AND NOT BE SAVVY! Why are you DEFYING stereotypes?!" Sarge asked.

"Because he's not stupid! And he may have busted Ben wide open off that!" Church proclaimed.

Ben fell down to the mat in a heap as the crowd cheered, and Senji twirled the bat in his hand before telling the ref to check on Ben. Jimmy wasted no time as he slowly turned Ben's head, in order to get a look...

...

...

...and he was not bleeding! Ben's head was clean as it could be!

"He's NOT bleeding?! I'll be damned! That busted open Ben last time, but it seems like history's not repeating itself in more ways that one!" Church stated.

"Ben's head is made of STEEL! He got it like that in preparation for this match! That's the mark of a "hero"...a psychotic hero, but a HERO nonetheless!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji was a bit surprised at Ben's head not bleeding...but he just shrugged and said "Fine, more for me to do then..." before slamming the bat on Ben's body hard! Ben cried out in pain, but Senji did it again! And he slammed the bat over Senji's body again and again until he did at least six times, causing Ben to writhe in agony on the ground, but the Deadman had no sympathy after everything Ben did. He then backed up and shouldered the bat, as if readying a swing as he stalked Ben, who was slowly pushing himself up to his feet as he held his body in pain. Eventually, he got up and turned around...

"Looks like second time may be the charm as he swings for the fences!" Church called.

...

...AND DUCKED A BASEBALL SWING TO THE SKULL FROM SENJI! Senji, surprised, turned around, but got the bat Dropkicked out of his hand by Ben! The Champ got up, but was met with a Big Boot to the face by an annoyed Deadman, sending him down to the ground! Ben was dazed off that, but Senji quickly picked him up and grabbed his hand. He went for an Irish Whip, but pulled him back in for a Military Press...

"Oh no, Wonderland Whip, look out, Ben...!" Sarge warned.

...

...but Ben managed to use the momentum to land right behind Senji, who turned around RIGHT INTO A HARD GALAXY STRIKE TO THE FACE!

"GALAXY STRIKE! Ben got all of the Elbow to the face, and down Senji goes!" Church called.

"The elbow all across the galaxy found its mark, and NOW it's time for Senji to feel even MORE pain!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji went down to the ground and rolled onto his stomach as the ref checked on him as Ben fell to his knees, shaking his head. Eventually, he managed to get up to his feet...

...

...but then suddenly, the ref began to say that Ben was now legal to win, much to the confusion of the crowd...

"Well Ben can now regr-Hey, WHAT? Ben's LEGAL? How's that possible?" Church questioned.

...

...

...

...and it was shown that Senji was bleeding from his forehead!

"WHAT THE HELL?! SENJI...SENJI'S BLEEDING?! BUT HOW?!" Church exclaimed.

"HE IS?! ...Well OF COURSE! That's what it means to be dealt a RED ELBOW! FEAR THE GALAXY STRIKE!" Sarge exclaimed.

"No way that elbow could've busted open Senji in one shot! Ben deals a hard elbow, but not hard enough to do that! HOW?!" Church asked.

The crowd was shocked and confused at Senji just bleeding that from his head, not knowing an elbow smash could be that hard hitting, all while Ben began to try and get his "10" jacket off of his body, as he never took it off at the beginning. And that's when some fans noticed that there was something sticking through the right elbow part of his sleeve...

"Ben's taking off his jacket and-wait, there's something sticking out of his sleeve...! Is that...?!" Church pointed out.

...and he managed to take off the jacket to reveal that he had an elbow bad pad on his right elbow...AND IT WAS WRAPPED AROUND IN BARBED-WIRE!

"OH THAT SNEAKY SON OF A BITCH! No wonder he kept the damn jacket on, it was to hide the barbed wire around his elbow! THAT'S what caused Senji to bleed off the Galaxy Strike!" Church stated.

"Ben bided his time! Ben waited for the right moment to use that, and now Ben's allowed to win this match! GENIUS! Even in the midst of madness, he can still do that! This is what means to be a hero of the Reds!" Sarge shouted.

The crowd went "Ooooohhh" upon seeing what Ben had kept hidden and waited for the right moment to use, and Ben just threw the jacket down with a crazed look in his eye and muttered "Now it REALLY begins..." before dropping down to Senji, grabbing his head, and began RAINING barbed-wire elbows down on the skull of Senji, causing the wound to be opened up more with every blow delivered! Then he began rubbing the barbed-wire elbow back and forth across his forehead, causing Senji to grit his teeth as he felt it dig into his skin, until he got yanked up and BLASTED WITH ANOTHER BARBED-WIRE GALAXY STRIKE! Senji was laid out as Ben went for the cover!

"And ANOTHER Galaxy Strike with the barbed wire! Senji's head is pouring blood at this point!" Church called. "And there's the first cover of the match!"

1...

...

2...

...

Senji kicks out at 2.87!

"Damn, Senji kicked out! But now that he's bleeding, it's time for Ben to get to work! And he WON'T have mercy!" Sarge proclaimed.

Ben glared at Jimmy dangerously, but the wincing ref managed to maintain it was two. But he decided it didn't matter in the end, as he quickly grabbed a kendo stick from the trash can Senji brought in. He waited until the bleeding Senji was on all fours until he whacked Senji across the back with it as hard as he could. Senji gritted his teeth, but kept trying to get up, but got another shot to the back, and then another, and another, Ben repeating the action with an almost disturbing vigor as every shot was heard! Welts were forming on Senji's back as Ben delivered a tenth shot, but Senji STILL tried to get up, but Ben grabbed Senji by the head, pulling him up to a kneeling position as he stared into his bloodstained face...AND THEN DAMN NEAR BROKE THE KENDO STICK OVER THE SKULL OF SENJI!

"Did you HEAR that?! That was a VICIOUS shot! Ben just caned the hell out of Senji!" Church stated.

"He needed a good caning for all the sins he has done! Maybe now he won't be such a dirtbag!" Church stated.

Senji was face-first on the canvas as his blood stained the mat, and Ben glared down at Senji, but then he looked down at his hand. It was covered in Senji's own blood and he stared at it for awhile...before he actually LICKED THE BLOOD OFF HIS HAND TO A SHOCKED GASP FROM THE CROWD! He then wiped the rest of the blood across both his cheeks as if marking them, and a sick smirk appeared on his face. The crowd chanted "YOU SICK F*CK! YOU SICK F*CK!" but Ben just shouted back "I KNOW! THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES, RIGHT?!"...

"...Ben Tennyson, you have definitely become one sick fuck here, man." Church simply said.

"Hey...at least he's a HERO of a sick fuck. Definitely better." Sarge "rationalized."

...before he grabbed the trash can and dumped out the rest of its contents, which were a tire iron, a steel chair, and a screwdriver. He then dragged Senji over to a corner, and seated him against it, and placed the trash can over Senji's body. He then grabbed the chair, backed into the adjacent corner, ran full steam...

...AND NAILED A CHAIR-ASSISTED HESITATION CORNER DROPKICK TO TO THE TRASH CAN-COVERED SENJI!

"Ben with the CORNER DROPKICK WITH THE CHAIR! And with Senji covered in a trash can, that just ADDS to the pain!" Church called.

"Two weapons for the price of one attack! Only Ben could've thought of that!" Sarge praised.

Ben quickly pulled the trash can off Senji and pulled him him into a cover!

"And Ben with a cover! This may be over without Ben bleeding at all!" Church called.

...

2...

...

Senji kicks out at 2.64!

"Gah, I knew Senji wouldn't be easy to take down in Sadistic Madness! But there's plenty of time to change that!" Sarge stated with confidence.

Ben just stands up on his feet, grabbing the trash can and turning back to Senji dangerously who had rolled across the ring a bit. However, Ben just walked over to him and stood over his body, before raising the trash can...

...

...BUT SENJI SUDDENLY SHOT HIS LEG UP TO LOW BLOW BEN! Ben dropped the trash can as he doubled over, holding his nuts AND GOT CLOCKED WITH THE KENDO STICK FROM EARLIER THAT SENJI REACHED OUT AND GRABBED! Ben fell down to the ground, holding his head in pain as Senji pulled himself up, and then as soon as Ben stood, cracked his head AGAIN with the kendo stick, dazing him...

...

...BEFORE POPPING HIM INTO THE AIR AND THROWING HIM DOWN FACE-FIRST INTO THE TRASH CAN, CRUSHING IT!

"AND BEN JUST WENT SKY HIGH BEFORE CRASHING IN THE WORST WAY! BEN WITH NOTHING BUT A FACE FULL OF CRUSHED TRASH CAN!" Church called.

"NO! Why didn't you learn to fly, Ben?! You're a Red, you could've found the way!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben was laid out across the remains of the trash can and the bleeding Senji just grabbed the steel chair from earlier and waited for Ben to get up. The hero slowly got up, his face still showing no signs of blood on it and the bloody Deadman tried to change that BY DAMN NEAR TAKING BEN'S HEAD OFF WITH A VICIOUS CHAIR SHOT!

"And Senji JUST COSTS BEN A FEW BRAIN CELLS! WHAT A CHAIR SHOT!" Church called.

"This is what happens when you give Senji a chair, he scrambles your brains! Why did no one tell Ben this?!" Sarge asked.

"And did that bust Ben open?! That was the intent with that shot!" Church said.

Ben crumpled down to the ground, practically out cold from that chair shot and Senji leaned against the ropes as he waited for Jimmy to check on Ben...

...

...

...who was said to STILL HAVE NO BLOOD SPEWING FROM HIM!

"STILL NO BLOOD! And you gotta believe that Senji's getting a bit frustrated at not getting Ben to bleed right now!" Church stated.

"Well what can he do now?! Because he's tried everything and it HASN'T WORKED! He CAN'T do it! He's lost his touch!" Sarge proclaimed.

Senji was in disbelief, wondering what Tennyson's head was made of at this point, and he was getting a little annoyed. But then an idea popped into his head, and a grin appeared on his face before he dropped the chair and slid out of the ring. He quickly pulled up the apron covering, looking under the ring. After a few seconds, he began to pull lights tubes out from under the ring, much to the savage delight of the crowd!

"...WHAT were you saying, Sarge?" Church asked.

"...Never mind what I just said, HE'S STILL GOT IT! HE'S STILL GOT IT! WATCH OUT BEN!" Sarge freaked out.

"He can't hear you, and I don't think he's going to see those light tubes coming for his skull!" Church proclaimed.

Senji had pulled out at least five tubes before he had rolled them into the ring, a sadistic grin on his bloody face. He slid into the ring and grabbed a light tube, and went over to Ben as he tried to get up and pulled back the light tube WHEN BEN SUDDENLY RAKED HIS BARBED-WIRE ELBOW ACROSS THE FACE OF SENJI! Senji dropped the light tube, holding his face in bloody murder...

"Oh! The barbed wire around the elbow! Ben still has it, and Ben just used it to save his own ass!" Church called.

...

...

...AND GOT GRABBED FROM BEHIND AND PLANTED WITH THE GALAXY STORM!

"GALAXY STORM! Ben with a perfect Galaxy Storm! And now Senji..." Sarge began.

Senji was laid out as Ben turned him over and covered him!

Senji kicks out at 2.81!

"You Just Got-NO! Senji kicked out! Dammit, I hate when it becomes hard to put him away! It's just not fair!" Sarge groaned.

"Yeah, well, I didn't want to die thanks to my own f*ckin' teammate, but I did anyway. Life ain't fair." Church deadpanned.

Ben growled, annoyed at the kickout but he stood to his feet, and stared down the light tube which Senji had just a second ago before picking it up. He looked at Senji who was pulling himself up near the corner. He glared angrily, twirling the light tube as if stalking the Deadman, and when he stood, he swung...

"Oh shit, Ben looking to make Senji pay for bringing in those light tubes...!" Church called.

...

...AND SENJI MOVED OUT OF THE WAY! Ben STRUCK the top turnbuckle, causing the light tube to shatter as a result, many of the shards STICKING into the turnbuckle as well! Ben stumbled forward in shock before turning around...

...

...

...INTO A KICK TO THE GUT AND A CROW CLAW!

"BEN MISSED! AND A KICK! THE CROW CLAW! Senji got ALL of that Crow Claw, but he can't make the cover because Ben's not over!" Church pointed out.

"That's where the rules of this match come in, going AGAINST Senji at this point! Hah, not so fun when it's on the other end of the foot, huh?!" Sarge cried out.

Ben was laid out as Senji stood back up, his face covered in blood but he didn't mind at all as he took three of the four light tubes left and set them up near a corner next to each other before he grabbed Ben and picked him up. He then lifted Ben up onto his shoulders onto an Argentine Rack, walking over to the tubes...

"Well I think THAT'S gonna change because he's looking for Invisible Black in the worst way...!" Church called.

...

...but Ben suddenly began to elbow Senji in the skull with the barbed-wire wrapped elbow! Senji instantly let go of Ben, holding his face but got lifted into a Fireman's Carry as Ben turned to the light tubes...

"NOPE! Time for an Omni-Slam, your dirtbags! HIT IT!" Sarge called.

...

...but Senji managed to get off and landed behind Ben! Ben turned around, but got his legs pulled out from under him and fell down, then dragged over to the corner where the light tube shards were still in the turnbuckle! Senji then catapulted Ben into corner...

"WAIT WAIT, that turnbuckle, it's STILL got shards, and Ben's flying towards it!" Church noticed.

...

...AND BEN LANDED ON THE CORNER BEFORE HITTING THE TURNBUCKLE FACE-FIRST! Senji got up to his feet, and Ben dived off the corner, turning towards Senji as he did so AND FLEW RIGHT INTO A CHAIR THROWN RIGHT INTO HIS FACE!

"OH GOD! Ben tried to catch Senji off guard but flew right into face full of CHAIR for his troubles!" Church stated.

"Stop trying to mess up his good looks, don't be vindictive because he's more handsome than you!" Sarge proclaimed.

Ben was laid out in pain as Senji wiped some of the blood off his face, and then he went over and grabbed the fifth light tube. He then grabbed Ben by the hair and dragged him up to his feet as the ref again noted that there was no blood on his face...

...

...but Ben SUDDENLY BIT DOWN ON THE NOSE OF SENJI AS HARD AS HE COULD! Senji cried out in pain as Ben dug his teeth into his nose, but Ben wouldn't let go! Eventually, he nailed a few rights and Tennyson let go, letting Senji tend to his nose...

"OH GOD WHAT THE HELL?! He just BIT his damn nose, what's up with that?!" Church asked.

"Whatever it takes to win! Not like Senji needs his nose anyway!" Sarge stated.

...

...

...AND HE GOT CAUGHT WITH A CHAIR-AIDED DOUBLE KNEE FACEBREAKER!

"OH! Double Knee Facebreaker with a chair added for good measure! That may BREAK the nose!" Church called.

"So much for the undefeated Senji! Deadman..." Sarge began.

Senji was laid out as Ben quickly jumped onto him for the cover!

SENJI ROLLS THE SHOULDER OUT BEFORE THREE!

"You Just Got-DAMMIT! He kicked out of even THAT?! Dammit, you didn't bite on his nose hard enough, Ben!" Sarge cried out.

"The Hardcore Champion CAN'T believe it! He thought he had it, but it wasn't to be! And those eyes are NOT getting any better!" Church stated.

Ben was livid as he yelled at Jimmy, but he maintained it was three, and Ben held his hair and cried out in frustration. The look in his eye was getting more and more deranged, but then he saw the turnbuckle covered in shards, and for a moment he stared at it almost quizzically. And there, he knew exactly how to end this.

"Oh no...Ben's got an eye on that turnbuckle...and those aren't the kind of eyes you want to be stared at you..." Church stated.

"No, but it's the kind of eyes that means DOOM for a Deadman!" Sarge stated.

He stood up and looked down at Senji, before motioning that it was time to put him down before he slowly pulled Senji up to his feet, and once there, he grabbed him by the arm, and Irish Whipped him to the corner...

...

...but Senji REVERSED and Irish Whipped him instead...

"Ben trying to send Senji into the turnbuckle, but the challenger with the reversal...!" Ben called.

...

...but as Ben was about to stop himself HE GOT PULLED BACK AND LIFTED INTO A MILITARY PRESS...

"WAIT WAIT WAIT, SENJI, HE'S...!" Sarge called.

...

...

...

...

...AND DROPPED WITH A WONDERLAND WHIP THROUGH THE LIGHT TUBES NEAR A CORNER!

"HOLY SHIIIIIIITTTT! WONDERLAND WHIP! THROUGH THE DAMN LIGHT TUBES! SHARDS OF GLASS ARE STICKING INTO HIS BACK!" Church stated.

"NOOOOO, HIS BACK HAS BEEN SHREDDED LIKE CHEESE! NOT EVEN THE TANK TOP CAN SAVE HIM FROM THAT!" Sarge cried out.

The crowd exploded at that as Ben practically arched his back as he cried out bloody murder, writhing in agony as the shards stuck to his back. Senji rolled away from the agonizing Ben and grabbed the last light tube, and stood just as Ben was slowly stumbling to his feet...

...

...

...

...AND BROKE THE LIGHT TUBE OVER THE SKULL OF BEN, THE GLASS FLYING EVERYWHERE ON IMPACT!

"AND NOW BEN GETS GLASS OVER THE HEAD! SENJI SWUNG DOWN WITH EVERYTHING HE HAD AND FOUND HIS MARK WITH THE LIGHT TUBE!" Church called.

"DAMMIT, WHO PUT THOSE LIGHT TUBES UNDER THE RING ANYWAY?! WAS IT YOU, GRIF?! YOU'RE GETTING A PUNISHMENT FOR THIS!" Sarge called.

Senji threw the the intact end of the tube away as Ben lied on the ground, and Jimmy kneeled down onto Ben to check on him...

"That had to do it, that HAD to, because if it didn't, that head is made of steel!" Church proclaimed.

"Come on, no blood, no blood..." Sarge hoped.

...

...

...

...and make no question about it, he was SPEWING blood out of his forehead after that, and Jimmy declared Senji legal to win!

"AND HE IS! Ben's head is GUSHING BLOOD! That means it's an EVEN PLAYING FIELD now!" Church stated.

"WHY REDS WHY?! You've given the criminal a CHANCE! And in Sadistic Madness, that's BAD NEWS!" Sarge cried out.

The crowd cheered this development as Senji grinned and said "Oh, I've been waiting for this..." before he mounted Ben and began to POUND AWAY at the skull of Tennyson, each fist opening the bleeding wound even more! After tens of fists, he stood up and grabbed a chair and placed it over the face of Tennyson, and once done, he bounced off the ropes and DOUBLE FOOT STOMPED THE CHAIR INTO BEN'S FACE, CRUSHING IT! Ben's body convulsed off that, but Senji was not done, not by a long shot as he took the chair and set it up in the ring before he picked up Tennyson, placed him between his legs before lifting him up...

...

...

...

...AND POWERBOMBING HIM THROUGH THE CHAIR!

"AND BEN POWERBOMBED RIGHT THROUGH A STEEL CHAIR! That chair is NOT going to be used any time soon!" Church exclaimed.

"You ruined a perfectly good chair, Senji! And Ben could've sat in it, you BASTARD!" Sarge raged.

Ben was a crumpled mess as Senji dropped down and made his first cover of the match!

"And Senji going for the win now that Ben's bleeding!" Church called.

Ben kicks out at 2.88!

"And Ben kicks out, but Senji's on a roll! And when he is, you find out when he is 6-0 in these matches!" Church called.

"I don't want to find out again! I HATE finding out!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji stands up, not at all perturbed by the kickout because he was ready to do more, and grabs Ben and drags him up WHO THROWS A BARBED WIRE GALAXY STRIKE! BUT SENJI CATCHES IT! Ben's eyes widened as Senji stated "The well's run dry there, Tennyson" before nailing a Lariat that sends him down! Senji holds onto the arm though and begins to deal with the barbed wire around the elbow, begin to unravel and untie it! Ben tried to stop Senji and reach at him, but got stomps to the face for his attempts, and soon enough, the barbed wire was pulled off the elbow! Senji then wrapped the barbed wire around his own hand, and began beating Ben's face in with barbed-wire fists to the skull as soon as he got to his knees, blood flying everywhere off of Ben's skull as it poured more and more until after twelve fists, Senji bounced off the ropes, letting Ben stumble to his feet AND RIGHT INTO A BARBED-WIRE SUPERMAN PUNCH TO THE SKULL!

"And Ben's own barbed wire is coming back to HAUNT HIM AS SENJI BEATS THE HELL OUT OF HIM WITH IT! SUPERMAN PUNCH TO THE SKULL WITH THE BARBED WIRE!" Church shouted.

"That barbed wire tears off flesh and skin, and Senji's fists hurt like hell! Combine them, and you're destroying Ben's poor face! STOP IT!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji shook his arm as the crowd was loving the violence, chanting "SENJI! SENJI! SENJI!" before he turned to Ben, who had crawled over to a corner and was pulling himself against it. The Deadman grinned sadistically and ran towards Ben...

...

...

...BUT BEN SUDDENLY DROP TOE HOLD HIM FACE-FIRST INTO THE SHARD-COVERED TURNBUCKLE! Senji dropped the barbed wire as he held his face in massive agony, the shards practically stabbing into his head, stumbling around...

"OH GOD...! THE SHARDS...SENJI JUST WENT FACE-FIRST...DAMN, HIS FACE...!" Church cried out in shock.

...

...

...

...RIGHT INTO A FIREMAN'S CARRY AND GETS OMNI-SLAMMED DOWN TO THE MAT!

"OMNI-SLAM! Off Senji going into the sharded turnbuckle! And with AUTHORITY!" Church called.

"And that's IT EVERYBODY! FINALLY! Senji..." Sarge began.

Ben quickly drops down and hooks both legs!

SENJI ROLLS THE SHOULDER OUT AT 2.9!

"You Just Got-WHAT?! HE KICKED OUT?! Now what kind of Blue crap is that?! What does Sadistic Madness do to you, Senji?!" Sarge asked.

"It make shim ONE TOUGH SON OF A BITCH to beat! Senji kicked out of Ben's best shot, and he's gotta wonder what the hell he's gotta do NOW!" Church asked.

Ben sat on the mat, completely in disbelief as he couldn't believe that Senji kicked out before slamming a hand onto the mat. He glared at Senji with an evil, crazy eye before deciding to roll out of the ring. He then looked under the ring for a bit...before he pulled out a pair of barbed-wire boards.

"Weeeeeellll this match is about to get even MORE VIOLENT in a REAL hurry!" Church stated.

"I LOVE violence and murder, so that's fine by me! We needed some more barbed wire here anyway!" Sarge exclaimed.

The crowd gasped in shock as Ben looked at Senji in the ring with a sadistic little grin on his face before he slid the boards into the ring. He slid in himself, and set up one board against the ropes for later, and then laid the second board near a corner. He then picked up Senji and dragged him over to a corner, lifting and placing him on top before climbing up himself. He then grabbed hold of him in Suplex position on top, and tried to lift him with the board behind them...

"Oh shit, a SUPERPLEX onto the barbed wire board?! That could end things right here!" Church called.

"Make sure it's EXTRA painful for him, Ben! He deserves it!" Sarge urged.

...

...

...but Senji wouldn't budge! Senji held onto the ropes, and Ben tried to lift him again! Growling, Ben tried once more...

...

...

...

...BUT SUDDENLY GOT LIFTED UP HIMSELF AND DROPPED ONTO THE BARBED-WIRE BOARD WITH A TOP-ROPE RELEASE GOURDBUSTER!

"OH GOD! BACKFIRE! IT BACKFIRED AND BEN JUST GOT DROPPED OFF THE TOP INTO BARBED WIRE! GOD, HE'S STUCK TO IT LIKE TAFFY!" Church called.

"THE PAIN...THE HORRIBLE PAAAAAIIINNNN...!" Sarge held his head.

Ben cried out in massive agony as he was dug deep into the barbed wire board, unaware of Senji reaching over for something. The barbed wire dug into his skin all over as he tried to get out, but then he heard "Hey Tennyson," from above, and looked up...and his eyes widened as he tried to dig himself out more as Senji sat on top, and had the second board up with him across the middle ropes in front of him...

"Oh SHIT..." Church's eyes widened behind his helmet.

"No no no no no no no no no no no no no..." Sarge repeatedly frantically.

...

...and Senji casually kicks it forward so it fell RIGHT ON TOP OF BEN AS HE WAS STILL ON TOP OF THE FIRST! Ben cried out in agony at two barbed wire boards on his body from both sides...

"...no no nOOOOOOOOOOOO! YOU MONSTER, SENJI!" Sarge cried out.

"Senji just kicked another barbed wire board down onto Ben as if it was nothing, not giving a DAMN about the Champ's welfare! The amount of pain he must be in..." Church called.

...

...

...AND SENJI NAILED A DOUBLE FOOT STOMP OFF THE TOP, SANDWICHING THE BOARDS BETWEEN BEN EVEN MORE!

"...HAS JUST BEEN INCREASED TEN TIMES OVER! HOLY SHIT, DUDE!" Church winced.

"ARE YOU JUST RAVING MAD OR THAT SADISTIC?! THIS DEADMAN JUST CRUSHED BEN BETWEEN THOSE BOARDS LIKE THAT! I REPEAT, YOU MONSTER!" Sarge cried out.

Ben was practically convulsing in pain at this point, and Senji just RIPPED the top of the board, tearing off parts of Ben's tank top and even his skin. Then he yanked Ben off the board he was lying on, practically ripping off the rest of the tank top and shredded more skin before making the cover!

"And Ben was just PULLED off the board, leaving some flesh behind in the process! Senji has no mercy for Ben after everything!" Church stated.

"And now he's got a cover! KICK OUT BEN! KICK OUT!" Sarge hoped.

BEN ROLLS OUT THE SHOULDER AT 2.9!

"And he indeed DOES kick out! Ben showing some toughness in trying to keep his Hardcore Title reign alive, but how much can he take?!" Church questioned.

Senji was a tiny bit miffed, but he simply took it as a sign that he would do much more to Tennyson before he grabbed one of the boards and began to set it up near a corner. All while Ben laid on the ground, his face completely covered in blood, his face having shards still stuck in it along with his back, barbed wire strands sticking to parts of his body, and skin torn off various parts of his upper torso.

"Senji's setting a board in the corner...and damn, Ben's already looking like a MESS...the mat's getting stained with BOTH of their blood..." Church stated.

"We knew this match would be violent, and it's living up to it...and Senji's words earlier...damn, I hope the Champ survives...I really do..." Sarge said.

Senji leaned the board against the corner, and made sure it stayed there before he went back over to Ben, and pulled him up to his feet before dragging him over to the barbed wire board. But suddenly Ben managed to push Senji away, falling to a knee in pain, and the Deadman just shook his head as turned around to grab at Ben...

...

...

...AND CAUGHT A DESPERATION GALAXY STRIKE BY THE ELBOW! Senji stated "Already know this, Tennys-" BUT GOT THE OMNI-SMASH FROM BEN'S FREE FOREARM!

"Senji CAUGHT the Galaxy Strike! He saw it com-AND OMNITRIX TO THE FACE! OMNITRIX TO THE FACE, WHAT?!" Church exclaimed.

"THAT WAS THE OMNI-SMASH! THAT OMNITRIX FOREARM WAS THE OMNI-SMASH FROM WWE! WE'VE NEVER SEEN IT BEFORE IN UCA, BUT HE DID IT NOW TO SENJI!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji went down off that and held his head in pain, completely in a daze, while Ben fell back into the corner, using it to stay standing. He pulled himself up fully as Senji stumbled up to his feet near the barbed-wire board AND BEN RUNS AND SPEARS HIM THROUGH THE BARBED WIRE BOARD IN THE CORNER!

"And a SPEAR! SPEAR through the BARBED WIRE BOARD! Ben just paid Senji back in the worst way! Good God, their FLESH...!" Church exclaimed.

"Ben risked his own body to do whatever he can to defeat Senji! HE HAS TO! And this is a result!" Sarge proclaimed.

Senji gritted his teeth in pain as he was dug in deep in the remains of the barbed wire board, all while Ben had to pull the parts of his body stuck to the barbed wire out of, biting his tongue as he did so. Ben was on all four as Senji managed to roll off the barbed wire, losing a few skin cells in the process. Ben managed to push himself to his feet, as he panted with blood all over his blood, and Senji slowly got to his feet as well...

...

...

...AND WALKED RIGHT INTO AN ALIEN ACT (Attitude Adjustment) FROM BEN!

"And now an ALIEN ACT STRAIGHT FROM CCW! First the Omni-Smash, now the Alien Act! Ben's resorting to his ENTIRE move arsenal to get the job done!" Church called.

"And after THAT offensive flurry, it DAMN SURE DID! Senji..." Sarge began.

Ben quickly hooked both legs as hard as he could!

SENJI KICKS OUT AT 2.99!

"You Just Got-WHAT?! AFTER ALL OF THAT?! WHAT IS SENJI MADE OF?!" Sarge questioned.

"I don't know, but Senji just goes to ANOTHER LEVEL in this match! God knows the shit he's taken in a match like this and won still! And Ben's finding this out the HARD WAY!" Church exclaimed.

Ben was about to go ballistic at yet another kickout, screaming angrily at Senji's resilience. The absolutely bloody Ben muttered inaudibly, as if talking to himself over what he had to do, but then he saw the screwdriver that had been dumped out of the trash can earlier. He eyed for it a tiny second, and then reached over and grabbed it, still looking at it.

"Ben's trying to figure out what to do aaaaannndd why is he looking at the screwdriver like that?" Church questioned warily.

The look in his eye was not of a stable mind...and then he nodded as he shook the screwdriver, then looked down at Senji and said "You lost one eye for one massacre...

..."HOW ABOUT I TAKE THE OTHER FOR THE SECOND?!" AND BEN TRIED TO JAB THE EYE DOWN TOWARDS THE LONE EYE OF SENJI! BUT SENJI MANAGED TO HOLD UP HIS FOREARMS TO TRY AND KEEP THE SCREWDRIVER AT BAY!

"WHAT THE F*CK?! IS HE...HE'S TRYING TO GOUGE SENJI'S DAMN EYE OUT! THAT F*CKER REALLY HAS LOST HIS DAMN MIND!" Church exclaimed.

"THIS IS SADISTIC MADNESS! YOU HAVE TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO WIN! AND SENJI DOESN'T NEED THAT EYE ANYWAY!" Sarge proclaimed.

"HE DOES, YOU IDIOT! HE'S ONLY GOT ONE LEFT!" Church shouted.

Senji's got his forearms against Ben's arms, using it to keep the screwdriver from his eye, but Ben was pushing down as hard as he can, that crazed look still about him. Eventually, he managed to push down the forearms, the screwdriver reaching closer and closer...

...

...

...UNTIL SENJI MOVED HIS HEAD, AVOIDING THE SCREWDRIVER TO THE EYE! Ben stabbed the mat, and Senji headbutted Ben in the skull! Ben dropped the screwdriver and stood up, holding his head in pain as Senji got up and threw a Clothesline...

"Senji avoiding the worst case scenario and now retaliating...!" Church called.

...

...

...but Ben ducked, grabbed him from behind, AND NAILS A BKT (Paroxysm) ON HIM ONTO THE FLATTENED TRASH CAN FROM EARLIER!

"OH! BKT! Another CCW move, RIGHT onto the remains of that trash can! Ben pulling out EVERYTHING he can to win this!" Church called.

"Ben's gotta use whatever he can to win! Otherwise, he's done! And he's doing some big-time damage!" Sarge called as well.

"Well Ben has Senji down and he's NOT going for the cover?" Church questioned.

Senji was laid out, but Ben was not going to go for the cover. Instead, he felt it wasn't enough, so he slid out of the ring and went over to ringside, grabbing a pair of chairs from it. He slid back into the ring with them, and opened one of the chairs, and he actually placed Senji's head WITHIN THE OPEN CHAIR. After making sure Senji had the chair wrapped around his head, he grabbed the other chair and began to head up top...

"Oh CRAP...he's NOT...is he REALLY...?!" Church questioned.

"He IS! INGENIOUS! And considering what he's facing, the ONLY way he can bring him down!" Sarge proclaimed.

...

...

...he managed to reach up the top turnbuckle, and held the chair up as he readied himself...

"Shit, man, he's gonna BREAK HIS NECK...!" Church cried out.

...

...

...BUT SENJI SHOT UP, PULLED THE CHAIR OFF HIS HEAD, AND SLAMMED IT INTO BEN'S AND SENDING IT INTO HIS FACE! Ben was dazed as he dropped his chair and GOT CROTCHED ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!

"OOOOOHHH...okay...even I felt that one..." Church winced.

"...Little Ben...we will miss you..." Sarge salutes to the fallen manhood. "You...did a great service to Ben all these years...oh the HORROR..."

Ben's visage was one of pure and utter pain no man should go through, but Senji gave zero fucks, so he just climbed up to the top, and quickly hooked both arms before Ben could retaliate...

...

...

...

...AND NAILED A SUPER CROW CLAW OFF THE TOP TO TENNYSON!

"SUPER CROW CLAW! Ben gets PLANTED off the top, he's OUT!" Church called.

"We didn't need a super-sized Crow Claw! We didn't need that! Leave it to a criminal to do that!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben was motionless as he bounced onto his back and Senji lays on him with a leg hooked!

"Senji with the cover, looking for the fifth Hardcore Title...!" Church called.

BEN ROLLS THE SHOULDER OUT AT 2.99!

"BEN KICKS OUT! Ben stays in and keeps his reign alive! THAT is the mark of a hero...who's lost his mind, but STILL A HERO!" Sarge exclaimed.

"Yeah, but he's REALLY not looking good, that's a LOT of blood he's lost, even his BODY is starting to get covered in it..." Church noted.

Senji just shakes his head, his blood and Ben's really starting to stain the mat all over, and reaches over to the intact barbed-wire board and places it near them before standing up. He then dragged Ben up to his feet, and lifted him up into an Argentine Rack, standing next to the barbed-wire board, then flips him off...

"Oh man, Senji's GOING FOR THE KILL...! On the barbed-wire...!" Church called.

...

...

...but BEN LANDS ON HIS FEET ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BOARD ON HIS FEET! Avoiding getting planted on barbed-wire, HE JUMPED UP FOR THE INTERGALACTIC ON IT INSTEAD...

"Ben landed on his feet AND INTERGALACTIC OUTTA NOWHERE!" Sarge suddenly called.

...

...

...BUT SENJI JUST PUSHED BEN OFF AS HE WAS IN MID-AIR! Ben went FLYING over the ropes as a result and SPLATTED onto the outside!

"NO! No Intergalactic as Ben is just SHOVED over to the outside! Damn, what a SPLAT!" Church called.

"Not even Ben's gonna be fine after that, that'll rattle the insides of ANY Red! In fact, I think it may have rearanged them!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben was sprawled out in pain across the ground, but Senji was not done as he picked up the barbed wire board, and dragged it onto the apron with him before taking hold of it, just pushing through if the barbed wire sticks to him...

...AND ACTUALLY SUPLEXES THE BOARD OFF THE APRON AND ONTO BEN, SLAMMING IT DOWN ONTO HIS LYING BODY!

"OH SHI...SON OF A BITCH! Did Senji just SUPLEX the damn board onto Ben?! How creatively sadistic can you GET?!" Church questioned.

"A whole lot because he's a MONSTER! There's a reason he was a locked up! THIS IS IT! Someone stop that man!" Sarge exclaimed.

"You want to try to stop that Deadman?!" Church questioned.

"...Quick, Ben, stop him!" Sarge said, pretty much answering the question.

Ben was writhing in pure and other agony as the board dug into his skin, trying to kick it off before he managed to crawl out from under it, more skin being shredded as the front part of his body was practically covered in his own blood. Senji just stood and walked over to Ben as he crawled around the ring and got up, and caught Ben with a boot to the face that sent him farther down the ringside and down to the ground. Senji then went over to the Champ, and picked him up once more, turning him around AND SUDDENLY GOT A TIRE IRON TO THE SKULL! Ben grabbed the tire iron from inside the ring as he was picked up, and Senji was dazed on his feet, and then grabbed and dragged over to the steps...

...

...AND GIVEN A TEN-PLEX (Tazplex) HEAD AND NECK FIRST ACROSS THE TOP OF THE MANY STAIRS OF THE STEPS!

"TEN-PLEX! A DAMN TEN-PLEX STRAIGHT FROM NCW ONTO THE STEPS THEMSELVES! BEN MAY HAVE DAMN NEAR BROKEN SENJI'S NECK!" Church cried out.

"There is NOTHING these two WON'T do to each other at this point! And of course, Ben was in the right for what he tried to do to that dirtbag!" Sarge exclaimed.

The crowd went "Ooooohhhh" as Senji was folded up nastily across the steps, his own blood staining the steps before falling off them in a heap. Ben crawled away from the steps and pulled his bloody body up by the Spanish Announce Table until he was on his feet. But then he saw the table he was leaning on, looked it over with intrigue, then back over at Senji...then tore the hood off, and began to pull out the monitors!

"Ben eyeing the Spanish Announce Table, and Lopez and Gonzales are NOT going to like this, but he's tearing apart their announce table!" Church called.

"Which means it's time for a Deadman to go RIGHT through it!" Sarge proclaimed.

Lopez and Gonzales just groaned, really glad they invested in the Japanese table now as Ben finished tearing apart the table and he went over and grabbed Senji. He dragged him over and threw him onto the announce table before getting on himself, standing over Senji. He dragged Senji up to his knees, and one crimson mask stared into another, and Ben said "This is what you wanted, right? THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED! ...And now this is the part...where the villain...realizes he made the BIGGEST mistake of his life with pushing me to this..." and then Ben pulled him up, turning him around...

...and HOOKED HIM BACK TO BACK, LIFTING HIM UP ONTO HIS OWN BACK...

"Wait...is he...OH SHIT...SENJI'S IN DEEP SHIT...!" Church held his head.

"OMNI-DROP TIIIMMEEE!" Sarge screamed.

...

...

...

...but Senji suddenly began to fight, his legs swinging like crazy and he managed to flip out of the Omni-Drop (Vertebreaker)! He landed on his feet behind Ben and SUDDENLY LIFTED HIM INTO AN ARGENTINE RACK...

"WAIT! SENJI GOT OUT OF IT, AND HE'S GOT TENNYSON!" Church exclaimed.

...

...

...

...

...AND JUMPED OFF THE TABLE TO PUT HIM THROUGH THE ENGLISH ANNOUNCE TABLE WITH THE INVISIBLE BLACK!

"INVISIBLE BLACK! THROUGH OUR DAMN ANNOUNCE TABLE! SENJI REVERSED THE OMNI-DROP AND JUST DESTROYED BEN RIGHT IN FRONT OF US! OUR TABLE JUST EXPLODED IN ONE FELL SWOOP AND BEN MAY BE DONE FOR!" Church exclaimed.

"OH THE HUMANITY! THE DESTRUCTION! THE CARNAGE! WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE BEN?! AND WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE OUR TABLE?! WHY?!" Sarge cried...all while Lopez and Gonzales CHEERED for the English Table going first.

The crowd was on its feet as table pieces flew everywhere, chanting "HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!" as Senji lied across the ground exhausted, and Ben was not moving after taking such a move through the table. They were like that for awhile, lying on the ground...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

...before Senji stirred, pulling himself up to his feet groggily...with a sadistic smirk on his face, muttering "Dead-Center" happily. He then grabbed hold of Ben, and pulled his motionless, bloodsoaked body up off the ground, and dragged him all the way over to the ring before throwing him into the ring. Senji panted and pulled himself onto the apron, entering through the ropes AND GOT AN INTERGALACTIC AS HE WAS GETTING HIS BODY OUT OF THE ROPES!

"Senji FINALLY managing to get the dead weight into the ring and INTERGALACTIC! INTER-F*CKIN'-GALACTIC OUTTA NOWHERE! HOW THE F*CK DID BEN PULL THAT OFF?!" Church cried out.

"INSTINCT AND REST! BEN HAD ENOUGH REST THANKS TO SENJI BEING DOWN, AND THAT ALLOWED BEN TO INSTINCTIVELY HIT THE INTERGALACTIC WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT! IT HAD TO BE PURE INSTINCT! HE DID IT AGAIN!" Sarge shouted.

"SENJI NEVER SAW IT COMING, AND HE WENT RIGHT INTO IT! HE'S OUT LIKE A LIGHT! HE'S OUT!" Church called.

The crowd went wild as Senji was laid out from the desperation Intergalactic, and Ben lied on the mat, exhausted and in pain as he continued to bleed all over the mat. But eventually, he managed to crawl over to Senji, hooking the leg weakly as he laid over him.

"And Ben's practically PULLED HIMSELF over Senji! He's GOT THE COVER OFF THE INTERGALACTIC!" Church exclaimed.

"He's THREE SECONDS AWAY from 6-1! SENJI KIYOMASA..." Sarge began.

SENJI ROLLS THE SHOULDER OUT AT 2.999!

"You Just Got-WHAT THE FUDGEBUCKETS?! HE KICKED OUT?! SON OF A BITCH, SENJI KICKED OUT! THAT DIRTBAG SURVIVED! IMPOSSIBLE! THAT WAS THE INTERGALACTIC HE TOOK!" Sarge exclaimed.

"I DON'T BELIEVE IT! SENJI SURVIVED THE INTERGALACTIC! HE TOOK BEN TENNYSON'S BEST SHOT AND IS STILL IN THIS! AFTER EVERYTHING BEN'S DONE, HE STILL COULDN'T GET IT DONE! AND BEN'S GOTTA BE IN DISBELIEF!" Church called.

"DAMMIT, BEN'S THROWN EVERYTHING, EVEN HIS ENTIRE ARSENAL, AT THIS DEADMAN, AND HE'S STILL GOING! WHAT THE HELL IS IT GOING TO TAKE?!" Sarge asked.

Ben's eyes widened to massive saucers upon that kickout and he slowly turned to Jimmy, who held up his hands and backed away slightly trying to say it was still two. And Ben just stared as he slowly struggled up to his feet in pain...until he SCREAMED in frustration to the sky, pulling at his hair with a crazed look, before shouting down at Senji "WHY WON'T YOU LOSE?! DON'T YOU GET IT?! THIS IS HOW IT ENDS! WITH THE HERO WINNING! THAT'S HOW IT ALWAYS END! GAH!" Practically having enough, Ben went over to the barbed wire strand he had around his elbow awhile back, and exclaimed "IF YOU WON'T STAY DOWN...THEN I'LL END YOU HERE AND NOW!"

...so he suddenly pulled Senji to the center of the ring, grabbed his legs, and tied them up in Sharpshooter fashion...

...

...

...

...

...AND SUDDENLY WRAPPED THE BARBED WIRE AROUND SENJI'S NECK, EXECUTING A BARBED WIRE-AIDED OMNI-LOCK (Sharpshooter/STF Hybrid)!

"OH GOD! THE BARBED-WIRE...! BEN'S USING IT TO AID IN THE OMNI-LOCK! IT'S SLICING HIS DAMN NECK!" Church exclaimed.

"THE HUMANITY! THE BLOOD! THE PAIN! THE THROAT IS BEING DESTROYED, AND THERE'S NOTHING SENJI CAN DO ABOUT IT!" Sarge proclaimed.

Senji's eyes went wide as his felt the barbed wire pulled against his neck, and he tried to pull them off, but Ben's pull on the barbed wire was iron-like as it dug and cut at the skin on his throat like crazy. Senji's arms flailed about as the hold was pulled on even more, Senji's neck bleeding more and more as Ben had a wild look. He was pulling for dear life on the barbed wire, the neck getting more and more shredded with every second, and Senji had nowhere to go. He couldn't get to the ropes, there were no rope breaks and he was in the middle of the ring! He clawed at the mat, but the barbed wire hold was pulled even DEEPER into his neck, slicing it up...

"There's nowhere for Senji to go, there's no rope breaks to break this up! Senji's TRAPPED! Look at his throat, it's getting SHREDDED by the second!" Church called.

"It's going to eventually slice the jugular if he doesn't tap! He's gotta tap if he values his miserable life, because Ben WILL do it!" Sarge exclaimed.

...and he felt himself starting to fade...

...

...and he raised a hand into the air...

...

...

...it shook in the air, some blood starting to come out of his mouth...

"It's shaking! The hand is in the air and shaking, and OH GOD THERE'S BLOOD OUT OF THE MOUTH!" Church cried out.

"TAP TAP TAP TAP TAP!" Sarge chanted.

...

...

...and Ben getting frustrated at Senji lasting so long, shouted "TAP ALREADY, YOU SON OF A BITCH! THAT'S WHAT YOU DID WITH DOMON, RIGHT?!"

...

...

...and Senji's hand CLENCHED TIGHTLY at that comment...before it SWUNG DOWNWARD...

...

...

...

...and landed on the screwdriver from earlier! Senji's fingers managed to touch the screwdriver, and pull it into his hand so he could grip it and suddenly stab it into Tennyson's forehead!

"And Senji's TAPPI-Wait, wait, it landed on the screwdriver! What is h-OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! HE JUST...F*CKIN' CHRIST MAN! HE JUST STABBED IT INTO BEN'S HEAD!" Church exclaimed.

"YOU...YOU...YOU SAVAGE DEADMAN! YOU MONSTER! YOU CRIMINAL! YOU SHOULD BE LOCKED UP AND NEVER LET BACK OUT!" Sarge cried out.

"GOD, THE BLOOD! THE HEAD IS JUST HAVING A GEYSER OF BLOOD NOW! BEN MADE THE WRONG REMARK AT THE WRONG TIME! FOR GOD'S SAKE!" Church heaved.

Ben let go of the barbed wire-Omni-Lock when that happened, rolling off Senji as he held his forehead in agonizing pain, which spewed out more blood than ever as a result of what happened. Senji slowly stood up, his neck having multiple cuts on it as blood seeped out of his mouth, but he only gritted his teeth. What Tennyson said was the LAST STRAW, and said Tennyson stumbled up, still holding his forehead in agony...

...so Senji suddenly ran and BOOTED Ben in the head hard, sending him into the ropes, and Senji ran at him and began to rain down vicious fists on the skull of Tennyson, full of anger and rage at this point. Ben tried to cover up to no avail as his wound was now bleeding even more than before until he managed to push Senji away, but he walks into a HUGE LARIAT! Ben rolled over to a corner, but he only ended up getting yanked up by Senji, who then Head-Slammed him onto the SHARD-COVERED TURNBUCKLE from earlier that Ben rolled to! Then he did it again! AND AGAIN! AND AGAIN! AND AGAIN! AND AGAIN! AND SENJI BEGAN TO GO CRAZY HEAD-SLAMMING HIM INTO THE TURNBUCKLE!

"SENJI'S SNAPPED! SENJI'S GONE NUTS! HE'S HAD ENOUGH OF BEN'S BULLSHIT AND IS NOW DESTROYING BEN'S HEAD VIA THOSE SHARDS!" Church called.

"THE HORROR! THE HORROR! IT'S TOO MUCH! IT'S TOO MUCH!" Sarge held his head.

After practically FIFTEEN Head Slams into the turnbuckle, Senji TOSSED Ben away from the corner and across the ground, the Champ barely responding as his blood covered the mat. Senji just glared down at Ben before he went over to him and dragged him to his feet AND BEN SUDDENLY JABBED A CHAIR INTO THE THROAT OF SENJI! Senji held his sliced up throat in massive pain as he coughed up even more blood, all while Ben tried to fully stand himself up with the chair in hand, wobbly but pushing through, and then he raised the chair and walked RIGHT INTO A SPINNING SPINEBUSTER FROM THE DEADMAN!

"SPINEBUSTER! Ben tried to catch Senji off the chair to the throat, but Senji wasn't having it!" Church called.

"This is bad, this is REAL BAD! Ben, do something!" Sarge urged.

Senji coughed up more blood, but he ended up just spitting it out as he was determined to finish this, he reached down Ben and slowly picked him up, lifting him into an Argentine Rack. He then turned towards the center of the ring...

...

...

...

...but Ben suddenly slipped out from behind Senji AND ROLLED HIM UP IN A SCHOOL BOY...AND GRABBED THE ROPES FOR LEVERAGE!

"Invisible Black coming-NO ROLL-UP! WAIT HE'S GOT THE ROPES! HE'S GOT THE ROPES! JUST LIKE LAST STAND! HE'S TRYING TO SURVIVE!" Church called.

"HURRY UP REF! COUNT COUNT COUNT!" Sarge begged.

SENJI KICKS OUT BEFORE THREE IS COUNTED!

"NO! NO HISTORY REPEAT! NO HISTORY REPEAT! SENJI KICKED OUT JUST BEFORE THREE!" Church called.

"DAMMIT BEN, QUICK, TURN BACK TIME! ...WAIT, YOU CAN'T! SHIT!" Sarge cursed.

Both of them scrambled to their feet and when they got up, Ben jumped and tried for a Hurricanrana, resorting to his WWE Cruiserweight days...but Senji held HELD ON, holding Ben upside down. Ben flailed around in shock and fear, but he suddenly got lifted up into a Prawn Hold...

"Oooooohhh, I think Ben may have gotten a little TOO DESPERATE there...!" Church called.

"Reverse, Ben, REVERSE like a Red!" Sarge cried out.

...and Senji suddenly ran towards the corner with the shards...

...

...

...

...AND POWERBOMBED HIM DOWNWARD ACROSS THE TURNBUCKLES, THE BACK OF BEN'S HEAD CRASHING ACROSS THE SHARD-COVERED TURNBUCKLE!

"SON OF A BITCH! THE POWERBOMB! THE SHARDS! THE HEAD! SENJI SAID HE WOULD KILL BEN TENNYSON, AND HE MAY HAVE DONE IT THERE!" Church exclaimed.

"HIS HEAD WAS TOO PRECIOUS THOUGH! IT WAS A TREASURE, WHY DO THAT?! WHY?! THE BRAIN MATTER LOST...! IT'S ALL OVER THE CORNER!" Sarge cried out.

Ben's head whiplashed across the turnbuckle as the shards sliced across the back of it, and Ben was absolutely motionless as he fell down to the ground off that. But Senji wasted no time in grabbing Ben's body and dragging it up, before lifting him into an Argentine Rack, walking with him...

...

...

...

...

...AND GAVE HIM THE INVISIBLE BLACK WITH EVERYTHING HE HAD!

"AND THE INVISIBLE BLACK! SENJI GOT ALL OF IT WITH AUTHORITY! MAYBE THE MOST EMPHATIC ONE I'VE EVER SEEN! BEN WAS DEALT THE BIGGEST BLOW IN THE WORST WAY!" Church shouted.

"THIS IS THE WORST TIMELINE! THIS IS NOT HAPPENING! BEN DIDN'T DESERVE THAT! HOW CAN THIS BEEEEEE?!" Sarge held his head.

The crowd exploded as Ben was motionless and Senji turned his bloody body over for a hook of the leg!

"Ben rolled over for the cover! The bloody Tennyson is not moving, and Senji's covering the carcass!" Church called.

"Dammit...I...I hate to say it...but...Ben..." Sarge began.

BEN WEAKLY ROLLS THE SHOULDER OUT AT 2.9999999!

"You Just Got-NOT SARGE'D?! ...NOT SARGE'D! NOT SARGE'D! THE HERO LIVES! THE HERO LIVES!" Sarge exclaimed.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! HE KICKED OUT?! BEN KICKED OUT! I DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT AT THE LAST POSSIBLE SECOND, HE DID IT! THAT'S AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN GET WITHOUT WINNING!" Church shouted.

The crowd stood up in shock as Senji sat up against the ropes, looking in disbelief down at Ben. He turned towards Jimmy and tried to make sure if that wasn't three, and Jimmy maintained that it was truly a two count. Senji just shook his head in frustration, surprised by Ben somehow staying alive after everything.

"Senji's in disbelief, and I don't blame him! He thought he had it... Son of a bitch, look at them...look at the mat covered in their blood...look at the carnage...what the hell is it going to take to WIN THIS for EITHER of them?" Church questioned.

"I don't know, I REALLY don't know, but Ben's a horrible mess! Somebody get him out of there!" Sarge demanded.

Senji just kept staring down at Ben, his bloody and mangled body not moving, and then the Deadman nodded as if knowing how to end this. He then rolled out of the ring, and began searching under the ring, and pulled out TWO TABLES and slid them into the ring, and then searched under the ring some more, and pulled out LIGHTER FLUID AND A LIGHTER. The crowd exploded at what was being implied, and Senji slid into the ring himself, and began to set up the tables next to each other near the corner.

"...WELL...THAT...may do it... I mean, we already saw one flaming table, why not two more?!" Church questioned.

"That's not good, NOT GOOD! Don't tell me he's-" Sarge began.

"You damn right he is, and there's no illusions about this, he WILL do it!" Church stated.

Once he had set up the two tables, he began to pour the lighter fluid all over the tables, and after he made sure it was soaked, he then grabbed Ben by the hair and dragged his bloody carcass towards the corner. He then raised the lighter towards the table...

...

...

...

...BEN SUDDENLY LOW BLOWED SENJI FROM BEHIND OUT OF DESPERATION!

"OH LOW BLOW OUT OF NOWHERE! No doubt complete desperation on Ben's part! And considering what he may be facing, I don't blame him!" Church admitted.

"No one can, he's trying to avoid the FLAMES OF DEATH! I'd do it too!" Sarge exclaimed.

"Well of course you would, you're you." Church deadpanned.

Senji dropped the lighter and fell down to his knees, holding his manhood in massive pain as Ben, with shards in the back of his head, and stray barbed wire stands still in him, tried to push himself up to his feet as Senji writhed. Eventually, he managed to get up to his, stumbling as the amount of blood he lost was getting to him big-time, but he saw Senji slowly get himself to his feet as well, pushing through the pain...

...

...and Ben hooked him up BACK TO BACK, AND LIFTED HIM UP...

"Ben's going for the one move he hasn't hit yet, this could do it!" Church called.

...

...

...but Ben's grip wasn't strong enough thanks to all the loss of blood and Senji slipped out of it, and landed behind him! Senji then LIFTED HIM INTO AN ARGENTINE RACK...

"NO WAIT! SENJI REVERSED IT AGAIN! INVISIBLE BLACK TIME!" Church called.

"No, don't let it happen again!" Sarge exclaimed.

...

...

...but Ben grasped the ropes of the corner though, using it to make sure he wasn't hit with the Invisible Black, and then actually FLIPPED himself off Senji's shoulder, using the ropes to help himself, and landed on top of the corner.

"Okay, now THAT was impressive! Ben learning from earlier in the match to actually FLIP HIMSELF onto the corner to avoid disaster!" Church called.

"He needs to make great moves like that if he wants to survive! If he wants to live! FIGHT BEN FIGHT!" Sarge urged.

Senji was miffed right now as he turned towards Ben and GOT A GALAXY STRIKE FROM THE TOP OF THE CORNER! The elbow was wildly thrown, and Ben only got part of it, but it was enough to send Senji spinning away and down to all fours as he tried to recover. Ben sat on the corner for a brief second, practically dazed as he tried to deal with all the blood he had been losing, before he slowly tried to stand up in the corner...

"Ben with a sort of-Galaxy Strike to buy himself some time! Now he's gonna to try and do something, and it has to be fast!" Church winced.

...

...

...but SENJI SUDDENLY RAN AND SLAMMED A STEEL CHAIR VICIOUSLY OVER THE SKULL OF BEN! Senji had grabbed as he was down and Ben was dazed on top, and Senji SLAMMED IT OVER IT AGAIN AND YOU COULD HEAR THAT! AND THEN SENJI DID IT AGAIN, AND IT WAS HEARD THROUGHOUT THE ARENA!

"GODDAMN, THOSE HAVE GOT TO BE SOME OF THE MOST VICIOUS CHAIR SHOTS I'VE EVER SEEN AND HEARD!" Church winced again.

"YOU COULD HEAR THEM IN THE CHEAP SEATS, AND THAT'S NOT WHAT BEN'S SCRAMBLED BRAINS NEEDED!" Sarge cried out.

Senji eventually stopped and threw the chair down, and Ben just sat on the corner limp off that, and he went over to the lighter, picking it up...and with it, he lit the tables on fire! The crowd cheered loudly as Senji smirked at what he saw before climbing the corner Ben was on...

...and he managed to adjust Ben so that his back was facing the ring, and he turned himself towards the table, pulling him into an Argentine Rack as he stood up top...

"The tables are NOW on fire...and Senji's climbed the turnbuckle, he's got Ben up on his shoulders!" Church called.

...

...

...and Ben weakly tried to elbow Senji in the head, trying to get him to let go. But Senji just shrugged it off in annoyance, the elbows too weak as he STOOD TALL...

"FIGHT BEN FIGHT! Fight like your life depends on it because IT DOES!" Sarge exclaimed.

"But Senji's just shrugging those elbows off, they aren't doing a damn thing! HE'S STANDING TALL..." Church stood up as he watched.

"OH NOOOOOOOOO..." Sarge anxiously cried out.

...

...

...

...AND HE-HAD THE OMNITRIX SLAMMED DOWN ONTO HIS THROAT BY BEN! A MODIFIED OMNI-SMASH!

"And Senji JUST HAD HIS THROAT SMASHED IN BY BEN'S OMNITRIX! OUT OF NOWHERE ONTO THE SLICED UP THROAT!" Church called.

"BEN WITH THE LAST SECOND OMNI-SMASH! IT WAS ALL HE HAD LEFT! AND IT WAS IN THE MOST VULNERABLE SPOT! BEN HAS A CHANCE!" Sarge pointed out.

Senji let go of Ben and held his throat as pain seared through it, coughing up blood massively as Ben fell off the shoulders, but managed to hold onto the ropes to avoid falling to the outside and remained on the side of the corner. Senji coughed up blood more and more, but he gritted his teeth in frustration, and turned to Ben to grab him BUT BEN JABBED THE SCREWDRIVER HE HAD IN HIS BACK POCKET INTO SENJI'S LONE EYE!

"SON OF A BITCH! JESUS CHRIST, WHERE THE HELL DID THAT COME FROM?! BEN JUST STABBED THAT SCREWDRIVER INTO HIS DAMN EYE!INTO THE F*CKIN' EYE! THAT'S SOMETHING THAT...GOD!" Church practically heaved out.

"SWEET MARY AND JOSEPH, THAT THING JUST WENT INTO HIS EYE! HE MUST HAVE HID IT WHILE SENJI WAS GRABBING THE TABLES, AND HE USED IT WHEN THE TIME WAS RIGHT! SENJI'S BLIND!" Sarge exclaimed.

Senji cried out in massive pain as since he had only one eye, he was now practically blinded, and Ben quickly used the chance to muster with every last ounce of energy he had to grab the blinded Senji by the head and take a step up...

"What is he-Oh shit, he's not going to do it, he's not going to do that!" Church proclaimed.

...

...

...

...

"HE IIIISSS!" Sarge suddenly cried out.

...

...

...

...

...BEFORE JUMPING OFF AND NAILING A SUPER INTERGALACTIC THROUGH THE FLAMING TABLES, PUTTING THEM BOTH THROUGH THE FIRE!

"OH MY GOOOOOOOOODDD! A SUPER F*CKIN' INTERGALACTIC! THEY BOTH WENT THROUGH THE FLAMES! THEY'RE BOTH BURNING! SON OF A BITCH!" Church exclaimed.

"THE FIRE! THE FLAMES! THE BURNING FLESH! I CAN SMELL IT FROM HERE! THEIR BODIES, THEY'RE BURNING IN HELL!" Sarge shouted in shock.

"THIS IS TOO MUCH! THIS IS TOO MUCH! SOMEONE'S GOTTA END THIS! THIS HAS GOTTA END!"Church tried to make apparent.

The crowd was absolutely on its feet as Senj and Ben writhed in pure agony as the flames burned their bodies, and the crowd chanted "HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!" Senji was laid out across the mat on his back as Ben just convulsed on the ground...but eventually, he began to drag his body towards Senji's. Soon enough, he reached Senji...

...and with the last of his strength, dragged himself over his body for the weakest hook of the leg possible.

"And Ben SOMEHOW making the cover... Is THIS it? Is there where it FINALLY ends?!" Church called.

"It HAS to... I have to say...Senji Kiyomasa..." Sarge began.

"YOU JUST GOT SARGE'D! BEN DID IT! BEN'S THE 1 IN 6-1!" Sarge cheered.

"It's FINALLY OVER... Thank God, it's FINALLY OVER... And somehow, someway, Ben WINS... Ben SURVIVES..." Church said.

I won't be, I won't be your hero (I won't be your hero)

I won't be your superman (I won't be your hero)

Everything I did was for you, everything you said was a lie

My pain, your gain, who's your hero today?

Who's your hero?

("Hero" by Pop Evil)

"Here is your winner of Sadistic Madness...and STILL UCA Hardcore Champion...BEEEEEN TENNYSOOOOOOOOOONNNN!" Cait Sith announced. "...Good LORD..."

The crowd was on its feet at this point, just making noise, whether it was cheers for the contest they saw, or boos that Ben somehow managed to win, but they all couldn't believe what they just saw. Ben weakly rolled off of Senji and lied on the mat next to him, as the two bloodied foes laid still on the mat which had been covered in their blood, the results of their war strewn all about them.

"Ben and Senji...just lived up to the name of this match. It really was Sadistic Madness, what they did to each other. Barbed wire, glass tubes, flaming tables, the whole package and more...we saw ALL of that...and Ben SOMEHOW, at the last second, managed to survive. He is STILL the Hardcore Champion." Church stated.

"Ben said that 'The Hero Always Wins,' but it came at a hefty price. Look at the carnage, even I find it hard to look at. There's so much lost blood and lost flesh, especially from Ben...but Ben pulled through, because he's the HERO. He's the 1 in 6-1...but this was a war...and a fight for survival. They really DID descend into madness..." Sarge admitted.

"Neither of them are moving, Sarge...neither of them are MOVING, they're still..." Church muttered as he looked at the two.

Jimmy was kneeling down and checking on Senji, but the two continued to lie on the ground, not moving. This continued for a few seconds as Jimmy was starting to worry and he was beginning to try to call for more help. But then a few seconds later, one of them began to move...

...

...

...

...and it was Senji Kiyomasa as he slowly began to sit up, practically pushing himself off the mat despite the burnt flesh and blood over his body. He held his eye in pain, and Jimmy reached out for Senji, but the moment he touched him, Senji shoved him roughly away, not wanting any help before he grabbed the ropes, and slowly got up to his feet before he was standing up, leaning against the corner.

"Senji's up...son of a bitch, Senji's UP! Despite EVERYTHING, that Deadman is UP ON HIS FEET..." Church breathed out in disbelief.

"And Ben...he's still down...oh no..." Sarge muttered, getting VERY worried at the scene now.

Senji continued to hold his eye until he manage to open it up, hard as it was, and looked dow at Ben as several more refs and officials slid in, checking in on him as he continued not to move. The reality of the situation hit Senji, and he just growled and slammed his fist on the turnbuckle. He was pissed that he lost, that his streak was broken and Ben won, how could he not be...

...but then he took another look at Ben, and his sorry state, at his entire body covered in blood, the burnt flesh, the shards and barbed wire stuck to him, and the fact he was unmoving, and he realized that Ben would NEVER be the same again, and this would stay with him forever. Senji took this in...and nodded, accepting that this would have to be good enough for everything Ben had done to him. It wasn't what he wanted, but it was good enough. He then walked to the ropes, KICKING AWAY any attempt at help for him, and exited the ring, grabbing his coat and putting it on after heading to the end of the ramp. He grabbed the lighter from inside the ring, pulling out a cigarette from a pocket, and lighting the cigarette as he smoked it...before turning to Ben inside the ring, the cigarette in his mouth, and said, in a hoarse voice thanks to the throat...

"...Damn good fight, Tennyson. Damn good fight..."

And with that acknowledgement, Senji began to walk up the ramp as he continued to smoke, blood still covering his face and pain wracking his body, but still walking out of there with his hands in his pockets. The fans began to clap in respect for Senji as they chanted "SENJI! SENJI! SENJI!" as he took his leave of his own power.

"Senji lost this match, he didn't win...but he's walking out on his own two feet. After ALL OF THAT...refusing ANY help, he wants to walk away on his OWN...that's something else..." Church called.

"I hate do this, but I have to give him credit...that's one tough bastard right there... A criminal bastard...but a tough bastard..." Sarge admitted.

As this happened, Ben was still down in the middle of the ring, and the refs and officials, and even a few EMTS were there, checking on him as he still not moved. Everyone was wondering what was wrong, and some of the EMTS noted that Ben had lost too much blood at this point, and all the damage he had taken had been too much.

"All those people in there, checking in on Ben... Senji did say that he was going to kill Tennyson... He...may have very well done JUST that..." Church muttered.

"This can't be happening...this can't be happening...this...THIS IS BAD... GET HELP..." Sarge held his head in worry.

"Ben's lost so much blood, maybe TOO MUCH... This...this isn't good for him..." Church noted.

They kept trying to wake Ben as they checked on him, but Ben was just not responding to any of their attempts, and they were having trouble closing the myriad of cuts and wounds that spewed blood. Jimmy told the EMTs they had to work as he began to beckon some stretches to come out with his hand...

"Okay, they're trying to get stretchers out there, that could help, and they better get there qu-OH!" Church suddenly yelped.

Jimmy had kept trying to call for the stretchers, but stoppped when a hand had shot up and grasped his arm...

...

...and it belonged to BEN TENNYSON. Ben had grabbed the hand, and pushed it away before he slowly rolled over onto his stomach, and placed his hands on the mat and began to push...

"Ben's moving...HOLY SHIT BEN'S MOVING AND...NO WAY..." Church's eyes widened.

"He's...is HE...?" Sarge questioned in disbelief.

The officials and EMTs all tried to go to Ben, but he just swatted them away as he continued to push and push up despite the pain that wracked his body, and eventually, he MANAGED TO STAND ON HIS OWN TWO FEET. He was WOBBLY, UNSTABLE, COVERED IN BLOOD ALL OVER, and liable to FALL OVER any second...but he was STANDING as the crowd stood on its feet in shock.

"I DON'T BELIEVE IT...BEN'S STANDING ON HIS OWN FEET! Somehow...Ben IS STANDING...! That damn Tennyson is STANDING somehow!" Church exclaimed.

"HE LIVES! BEN LIVES! I NEVER HAD A DOUBT!" Sarge cheered.

"...Yes you did." Church deadpanned.

"Shut up, dirty Blue." Sarge replied.

Ben almost had a faraway look on his face, but he managed to hold out his hand towards the ref, and Jimmy was confused...but then he suddenly got, and he slowly went over to the ropes, and got the Hardcore Title from it before he cautiously handed it to Ben, who grabbed it by the hand. He then panted a bit, before he slowly raised the title up by one hand over his head, and simply breathed out..."The Hero...Always...Wins..." and then he lowered his title and took a step towards the ropes...

...which he fell RIGHT THROUGH, tumbling out of the ring and down to the floor, landing face-first on it.

"And Ben falls down to the outside! He couldn't stay standing, but the fact he was able to STAND AT ALL..." Church exclaimed.

"You heard him...'The Hero Always Wins'...even with THIS...but seriously, GET BEN HELP NOW!" Sarge exclaimed.

Ben did not move again as the officials and EMTs were stunned by Ben even standing AT ALL, and weren't even sure how to respond to that. But they didn't have to, because LIGHTNING FARRON had made her way down the ramp, kneeling towards Ben as she looked down at him. She looked down at him, her eyes filled with some worry before shaking her head and muttering "You idiot, Ben..." before she pulled him up to her feet and practically began to carry and drag him up the ramp since no one else was going to do it. And as she did so, there was some applause in respect for Ben for what he just did.

"And Lightning's out here, practically DRAGGING her President of the RR up the ramp. Ben's not walking out of here of his own power, but this is better than the alternative...goddamn, what a match..." Church stated.

"...I...I think I had my fill of violence for the day, I think...because...that was a bit much...even for me... Oh man... Lightning, get Ben help FAST, he NEEDS IT..." Sarge muttered.

"What a match... Ben's being dragged out of here, but he is walking doing what no one else has done...he has beaten Senji in Sadistic Madness. He is the 1 in 6-1, he is STILL the Hardcore Champion...and he'll NEVER, EVER...be the same again..." Church stated solemnly.

The last shot we see is of Ben Tennyson being carried to the back for better medical attention by Lightning, the Tennyson barely keeping conscious all while he gripped the Hardcore Title in his hand, having survived Sadistic Madness at a heavy price, not just physically, but mentally as well...

The camera goes backstage once more, and who else, but Michael J. Caboose here to get through it all as he has a microphone in hand in the backstage manner...

"Wait...am I at Final Clash? I'm AT FINAL CLASH! Wait...where's the clash? I thought there would be two people fighting before me before my eyes in monster cars... It would be the greatest thing ever...and nobody would die because of me...that never happened obviously." Caboose drawled out.

"...Why do we keep him around?" Somebody off-screen questioned.

"He's funny and wins us FWAs. That's literally the only reason." Another deadpanned.

"...Wait, what was I doing? ...Ooohh yeah, I have a microphone! I'm going to interview someone?! ...Who was I interviewing again?" Caboose questioned...as a card showing the name "Tifa Lockhart" was on it, held almost exasperatedly. "...THANK YOU! So, say hello to Tifa everyone! HI LADY!"

Caboose waved as Tifa Lockhart walked into view on the screen, looking in disbelief at Caboose and his...weird ways...before chuckling and muttering "Never change, Caboose...never change..."

"So I have to ask a question, and people tell me I need to, so you have a match next and people are wondering since you have a match up next, and it's really important and all that...how do you feel about your chances when it comes to this match? That's what I was told to ask you, and...I thought I asked it pretty good..."

Tifa smiled before she began. "Well Caboose...I know what Lightning feels about HER chances. Probably feels like she's got this in the bag, and that I have no chance. That she's 100 percent certain that she's just going to kick me to the curb, end my career on top here in UCA, and suddenly become top dog forever, in spite of what happened with Ben. Now I won't judge that because I'm not callous, in fact, I can understand why she would do that...but I also know her, and I know she's not going to let this hinder her from what's to come. She can be cold and cruel, and she's looking to try and end me for good. And she feels she has every reason, and if that's how she feels, then good. But how do I feel about MY chances?" Tifa paused for a second...

"...I feel pretty good actually. In fact, I feel completely confident in my chances...because all it takes is ONE SHOT." Tifa said as she held up her fist. "One shot to put her down for three, and I've had enough of her disrespect, her putting me down, her trying to take over this Division just because she's RR and 'Lightning Farron.' I'm very well aware of what she's capable of, what she's accomplished, and I know...she's going to give a hell of a fight, but that doesn't mean she automatically just becomes top dog, and that I'm just going to get destroyed like I'm a piece of trash. I said it before, I'll say it again..she wants the torch? She needs to take it from me, because I'm not a doormat...and I'm SURE AS HELL not done. I got a LOT more to give, and tonight, I show HER and EVERYONE who doubts me just how much, and I think she'll be QUITE surprised."

Tifa then took a deep breath, closing her eyes as she looked up before she brought her head down with a strong look in her eye...

"The time for talking is over. Now...it's put up or shut up for both of us. In a few minutes, me and her are going to put on a match for the ages...but at the end of the day...you're looking at the NEXT Women's Champion. And if she doubts that I can do it...then I hope she's ready to be surprised with a KNOCKOUT."

And with those confident words, Tifa walked away from the area and towards the gorilla position, ready to do battle, and Caboose just watched her walk away and simply said...

"...She's nice. Why can't we have more nice people? Like Freckles? Because Freckles is the bestest friend EVER...next to Church of course." Caboose said simply...oh Caboose.
