The camera comes back to the arena...
"Because I Got High" by Afroman hits, and the IX Champion, Baron Trotter makes his way from behind the curtain. He marches down the runway, smoking on a joint. He steps in to the ring and puts it out. He refuses to hand his title over to the referee, though. He grasps it on his shoulder as he waits for the next entrance.
"Black Republican" [Instrumental] by Jay-Z & Nas hits, as the lights go grey and black. When the beat kicks in, Stan emerges from the curtain and hops to the front of the stage. He looks out at all of the fans at the arena tonight and continues on his way to the ring, stepping to the beat of his music. He is reluctant to enter the ring as Baron looks like he could attack at any moment. Stan slides in under the bottom rope to make sure he won't be attacked and the referee runs in between them. Stan points at Baron and yells with dissatisfaction as
"Ready or Not" by The Fugess begins. The lights in the arena slowly start flashing blue in a distant circular type of motion. The crowd is quiet and as the lyrics begin, the camera stays focused on the curtain. As the rap begins, massive jeers begin to ring out from the crowd, as Damian DeNiro steps out from behind the curtain with his chain around his neck, his United States Championship around his waist, and his Tag Team Championship over his shoulder. He looks on at the crowd and throws his arms in the air with a pose. Damian goes back into his normal posture and walks down the ramp slowly as the music plays, and he shows his arrogant smile off to the crowd.
Matt Baily: You gotta wonder, Dan... is Damian fronting tonight?
The Dan: Come on! We saw how upset he was backstage! There's no way his attitude changed that quickly.
Matt Baily: Well, he did seem to be a little satisfied with Rep's little speech, and Rep can do many things to a person with only his mere verbal speech!
Damian reaches the end of the runway and stays outside of the ring, with a confident look on his face. As the music fades out, the lights come back on.
"Purple Haze" by Jimi Hendrix hits as the lights go red. Rep comes from behind the curtain with his Interbrand Title around his waist, and his Tag Team Title over his shoulder. His manager Christina Hernandez walks at his side, holding his singapore cane in her hands. He walks down the ramp and ignores "Fuck Rep" signs on his way down. He reaches the ring at the end of the runway and holds the ropes down for Christina. As she enters the ring, Stan attacks Rep and Damian comes to his defense.
Baron picks up where Stan left off and stomps on Rep. Rep rolls out of the ring as Baron turns and agrees to work with Stan. Stan locks a boston crab on him as Baron moves to the front of his body and locks on a camel clutch at the same time. Damian is trapped in a highly painful submission.
Matt Baily: Good lord, look at this! It seems like Stan and Baron can work together after all!
Rep rolls back in to the ring and smacks Stan in the back of the head, then drops to the ground. Stan unlocks the boston crab and turns to see Baron Trotter awake and on his feet. Stan points to his head and questions Baron about the swat to the head and Baron acts clueless. Rep quickly snaps out of his "dead" faze and rolls up Stan...
ONE!
TWO!!
NO!
Baron breaks it up. Baron stomps on Rep as Stan stomps on Damian in the corner. The two hit mudhole stomps on both partners in the opposite corners, and they both bring them up at the same time and whip them to the other side... Damian and Rep somehow avoid colliding with each other and dive in on an attack at Stan and Baron.
Matt Baily: What a reversal! How do the Tag Team Champions do it!?
The Dan: Easy, THEY'RE THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, MORON!
Rep and Damian get back up. Damian picks Stan up and shoots him off the ropes as Rep does the same with Baron, on the other set of ropes. Baron runs off once and attempts a clothesline but Rep ducks... as Stan comes back around he's in the wrong place at the wrong time, and the Baron clothesline connects to Stan!
Baron grabs his head in a moment of regret and turns around in to a superkick from Rep.... followed by a leg drop from Damian. Damian turns and reaches in to Baron's pocket and pulls out one of his joints! Damian reaches in to the other pocket and takes a lighter out. He puts the joint in his mouth and lights it up.
Baron crawls over to the corner and pulls himself up. Damian smokes the joint and when Baron reaches his feet, Damian blows smoke in to his face. Baron suddenly hulks up!
Matt Baily: What a foolish move by Damian! Doesn't he know that weed smoke is like Popeye's spinach to Baron?
Baron clocks Damian in the jaw and the joint flies out of his mouth. Baron knocks Damian down, Rep runs over and gets a back body drop from Baron. Damian is back up and he assaults Baron from behind. Rep gets back to his feet.
Rep reaches in to his back pocket and takes out a small white towel. Damian knows what's coming, and he picks Baron up. Damian shoots Baron off the ropes as Rep blows his nose in to the towel... Damian hits a bitch slap on Baron, Baron spins around and Rep shoves the snot rag in to Baron's face!
Matt Baily: UUGHHHH!!! Disgusting!
Baron falls on his ass and Stan runs back in to the ring. Rep goes to use the snot rag in Stan's face but Stan ducks and Rep drops the towel. Stan grabs Rep by the hair and hits a reverse Russian legsweep, which sends Rep face first in to the snot rag!
Damian goes to attack, but Stan and Baron double team him to the ground! They stomp on Damian as he's down. Rep goes to attack as well, but Stan catches him and kicks him in the gut. The Drugeez have Rep and Damian down and Stan whips Rep off the ropes... Rep comes back and Stan ducks his clothesline, but the ref gets hit!
Rep turns around and gets hit in the nuts by Stan! Damian is down from a set of punches by Baron! Suddenly, The Superbeast runs in to the ring and hits a double clothesline on both Drugeez. Superbeast picks Stan up and throws him off the ropes, and hits a huge spinebuster! Superbeast picks Stan up again, and kicks him in the midsection. Superbeast goes for a DDT, but Baron comes from behind and stops the move from happening. Baron goes for a DDT on The Superbeast when...
CRACK!!!Rep comes in out of no where with a Singapore cane to Baron's face!
Matt Baily: GOOD GOD! The cane almost BROKE!
As Stan slowly gets up, Rep hits him in the face with the cane as well!
Matt Baily: I guess I spoke too soon! The cane IS broken!
Damian comes in and picks up Stan as Rep drops the cane and picks up Baron... The Superbeast picks up the referee.
Damian picks Stan upside down as Rep pulls Baron in for a piledriver... Damian hits the tombstone on Stan as Rep hits the cradle piledriver on Baron at the same moment! Both partners cover....
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!
Matt Baily: The World Tag Team Champions successfully defend their titles!
As Purple Haze hits, the first Tag Team Champions to ever hold the Tag Titles and two separate singles titles at the same time hold all four of their belts up at the same time!
: Don't get too excited, fellas!
Matt Baily: What the...? Who was that!?
The music stops as the curtain opens up to reveal... Adrian Karma!
Matt Baily: It's Karma! What is he doing out here?
Karma walks to the front of the stage with a microphone in his hands.
Adrian Karma: I don't mean to rain on your parade, guys... but I'm afraid that I have to burst your bubble. Damian... Rep... those World Tag Team Titles that you hold in your hands, by order of the GWF executives... no longer belong to you! I've been sent out here to retrieve them.
Karma walks to the ring and enters as Rep and Damian look at each other, pissed off!
Adrian Karma: I'm sorry guys, but you have to hand them over! The titles no longer belong to you, since Damian has decided to not take part in the rest of the GWF tour, they need these belts, they can't just sit on DeNiro's mantle at his mansion.
Rep looks at the scar on his forearm and after a moment of disappointment, he hands the title over to Karma.
The Dan: What!?
Matt Baily: Absolutely! I would have expected Rep to fight this decision to the death! You know how he loves conflict! What possessed him to just give in like that? He's made a career on not conforming to the rules!
Rep leans back on the ropes and watches Damian. Damian looks at Rep with a questionable face... Rep nods at Damian and he then... slowly shrugs it off and hands the title to Karma.
Adrian Karma: Thank you fellas. I'm glad you two were cooperative. Look on the bright side! At least you both still have your own singles titles!
Damian nods and looks to Rep, who exits the ring to leave. Karma turns and walks up the runway. He stops at the top.
Adrian Karma: Oh... by the way Damian... more bad news. Your mystery opponent is here. Your match begins... now!
Cut back to the ring... and Rep attacks Damian from behind! He stomps on the back of Damian's head and keeps stomping!
Matt Baily: WHAT!? That no good bastard was Damian's opponent all along!?! He led him right down the yellow brick road in to his trap!
Suddenly, a huge entourage of security guards run down the runway.
Matt Baily: Wait... what!?
The security team grabs Rep, who continues to kick and punch violently. They drag him out of the ring and up the runway.
Matt Baily: What's going on here? Is Rep not the mystery opponent? What was that all about?
As Damian grabs himself up again... The Superbeast enters the ring!
The Dan: Hold on a minute!
The Beast hits Damian from behind and hits a Piledriver on to the former Tag Team Champion!
Matt Baily: So The Superbeast was the mystery opponent!? I mean... it's just as scummy. It was still an inside job!
Suddenly, the security team runs down again!
Matt Baily: Oh, come ON! What is going on here!?
The Dan: Listen to what they're yelling! One of the security guys just yelled "We have to clear the area!" I guess the Superbeast was just giving Damian a receipt for any pain he put him through, since this will probably be the last time Damian is in a ring!
Matt Baily: So it isn't The Superbeast!?
The security team gets The Superbeast to leave with them, as the entire area is cleared. The lights slowly dim until everything but the ring is dark. Damian slowly drags himself up with aid of the ropes. He reaches his feet...
