Punished and Kenji pick up Steele, holding him by his arms as he looks around at the pair of them. They look at him funny as if they may hit him before throwing him in, but that thought subsides as they decide against him, patting Steele on the back and telling him to get back in the ring. Steele smirks and begins to roll back in, but is caught by surprise as XS3 leaps off through the second rope and hits the modified Phoenix Pounce, this time connecting on all of two of The Nation and Jake Steele. The rest of the Nation move towards the mayhem, making sure everything is fine. Christine Irvine watches on from the other side of the ring with Misono Matheson, both wanting to know if everything is fine as well.
A few moments pass, and while The Senator looks on at the ruckus, and at the same time keeps the rest of The Nation away from it all, XS3 finds his way back to his feet shifting his way through the fallen bodies, finding his target and rolling Steele back into the ring, following him into the squared circle. XS3 hooks the leg for another hopeful pin.
ONE…
…TWO…
…THR-NO!
XS3 runs his hands through his hair as he sits up and asks Senator again if that was really only two, and Senator reluctantly replies with approval. XS3 walks on his knees, over to the corner, as he puts his hands on the second corner turnbuckle pad and pulls himself up. He places his back towards the corner, and looks at the body of Steele anxiously awaiting for him to stand up and meet his maker. He calls for it, wanting, salivating at the mouth to end this battle with a Shadow Step, and to finally, after all the years he’s been competing - become the World Heavyweight Champion. Steele begins to come to, using the ropes as leverage to propel himself to a vertical base, but on one knee and eyes nearly glazed over he is completely unaware of his harmful surroundings. XS3’s eyes show the demon inside as he begins to twitch in wait, Steele almost there but not quite. XS3 is so impatient in fact that he gets off of his crouched position, as he stands up and hops back up on the second rope, to increase the impact of the move. He wants this ended with much pain involved, that much is clear.
XS3 sees Steele on two feet, wobbly but up nonetheless, and almost without so much as a second thought he leaps off from the rope with what he wants to be the second rope Shadow Step. But instead Steele grabs the back of XS3’s head and pulls down, the front of his face meeting both of Steele’s knees, shades of Chris Jericho. XS3 bounces to the canvas, and Steele takes a moment to himself to breathe as the Manchester crowd, and Misono are on their feet, hoping that last move means a retain.
Edison: This is what I meant earlier, we've just seen a new, impactful move performed by Jake Steele right here. These men know that they can't go with the norm tonight. It won't result in victory for either of them. McNally: I agree, and that move may very well be the ending of this contest.
The Senator looks at both men, and he reacts in favor of a third ten count. He barely makes it to four, Steele crawling to the side of XS3’s head and throwing an arm over his upper body, leading to Senator making the pin.
ONE…
…TWO…
THREE - NO!
XS3 throws a arm up and leans to the side, Steele in disbelief as his head temporarily rests against the side of XS3, the camera closing up on his face, with his expression only able to be explained by the exact same reaction of the Undertaker after HBK kicked out of the Tombstone during their bout this year at Wrestlemania 25. Better known as the “Takerface”. Yeah, that’s his reaction. And also the reaction of The Nation and everybody else inhabiting the Manchester Evening News Arena. As everyone watches on in disarray, Steele rolls onto his back and stares up at the ceiling lights, which beam down onto his eyes, almost a waking light you could say, as he takes a few deep breaths and eventually rolls onto his side and on his feet, his feet not fully in course with the rest of his body as he staggers around, fist clenched and flowing in the air as if he’s about to fight, yet XS3 is still down. Steele makes some sense of why he is in fight mode, as he steps to The Senator, who stands in the corner watching the man who has urked him from afar for a few weeks stumble towards his presence. Senator shakes his head and takes a step out of the corner as Steele gets up in his face, shouting at him that the last move was a three count. Senator notifies him that it was definitely a two count, a very close one, but a two count still.
Steele waves around, before he grabs The Senator by his official referee attire, and he yells for him to count it as three. Senator shows a look of disgust with Steele’s grubby hand gripped on his shirt, and he is quick to knock it back down and point to his shirt reminding Steele yet again of who‘s in charge of this match, and he can and will DQ him. Steele ignores his warning and he roughly shoves Senator into the corner knocking him to the second turnbuckle in the process. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to this as Steele waves his hands at him, and turns around to finish this fight. Although when he turns around he is woefully greeted by XS3 and a second torso crushing Shadow Step!
Though the crowd shows disapproval of the move and the impending cover by XS3, Lauren Terry claps excitedly for her uncle, and The Senator is more than happy to oblige with a pin count after that encounter. He drops to a crawled position and counts it, the fans exploding with boos before he can even reach the magical number of three. Which is evident at this moment as the champions eyes are glazed and The Senator wants nothing more than for the over cockiness of Jake to be his downfall.
ONE…
…TWO…
…THRE-KICK OUT!

The camera closes up now on XS3, who closes his eyes, in a total state of shock, listening to the outstanding cheers from the crowd and taking it all to his head, in a bad way. He begins kicking and stomping at the mat, yelling out loud before he tries to pin Steele again, hoping this time he won’t have enough strength to make it. But at the count of two that backfires, which causes him to outrage even more. He doesn’t quit yet, pinning Jake Steele one more time and even Senator looks tired of this as he gets another two count. XS3 looks around the ring after that third attempt, and he throws his face into his hands, slamming his fist against his knees as he gets back up and violently brings Steele up, punching the entire way to the top. He whips Steele across the ropes, and as he prepares for a Belly to Belly, Steele instead aims to knock XS3’s head off, hitting him with a spot on Big Boot. Jake drops to his knees after the boot, physically and somewhat emotionally drained, his Nation cheering him on. He clutches his back, the pain most definitely getting to him as he crawls over to XS3 and covers him, but he only omits a two count. Steele expected that somewhat, but it still showed him that XS3 is in this for the long haul, however much longer that may be.
Steele gets to a knee, and grabs the legs of XS3, standing up and trying for a Brooklyn Crab. He realizes he should have thought twice about it, XS3 kicking him back for the second time. Steele flies back and hits the canvas, while XS3 simultaneously rolls up to his feet and without a chance to catch it all, he charges forward to Steele who spins and he hits him dead on with a third and final Shadow Step!
Or not. Steele falls under and grabs hold of XS3 and reverses the move into a Small Package!
ONE…
…TWO…
…THR-NO!
XS3 kicks out of the move at the very last second, which takes a lot out of both men, Steele looking to overall have more to deal with as he lies on the canvas clutching his spine. He keeps the back of his palm on it as he slowly stands to his feet, watching as XS3 decides to take his place on the canvas, just as weak as his opponent at this point. Steele tries to move forward but instead stumbles back to the corner, tending to his back as he looks up into the air, the pain increasing with every step he takes.
He toughs it out, and he glances over at Senator for a second, then to his Nation who are clapping him on, which brings a smile to the face of the champ. Jake moves out of the corner, and he starts stomping away at the legs of XS3, trying to weaken him for possibly another attempt of the Brooklyn Crab. Steele backs off of his tactics for the moment, bending over and pulling XS3 up by his wrist. XS3 shows his signs of fatigue as he can barely seem to stand, now on both knees. Steele tries his damnest to drag him up but every time he almost has him stood up, XS3 drops back down to his knees. Jake’s face shows his frustrations, XS3 doesn’t stay footed, yet he shows he’s not out of it altogether physically, suddenly beginning to burst off fists into the sides of Steele. Steele recoils from it, as XS3 now hops to his feet, hopping across the ring and leaping through the air with a forearm smash, shades of the HeartBreak Kid running throughout his veins. The crowd boos for the move, but some in the crowd express their excitement to see who will come out in the end.
Both of these men have it in their mindset to win, and it’s showing. Jake Steele huffs and puffs out air, turning onto his stomach and holding onto the bottom rope as The Nation have technically stopped even participating in this match save for their constant cheering and circling around the ring. Steele looks out in front of him to Ken Dante, who is cheering for him to get back up, while XS3 sits up and shimmies back to another side of the ring, his hands held onto the second rope, taking time to catch his breath. Steele crawls up the ropes once again, and XS3 catches this, pulling himself up his ropes and the two standing off. They glance over to each other, both showing to be near out of it. Both letting go of the ropes, their crutches, they move towards each other as fast they physically can and engage in a slow paced fist fight. A shot after the other connecting, and each hit swaying the crowds reaction respectively, it becomes clear that this can’t go further much longer.
To the surprise of a few, Steele drops around a shot by XS3 and he begins unloading on his blood rival with right jabs to his jaw and ribs, leaving XS3 to rest on the ropes as Steele now runs back across the ring. This backfires seriously as XS3 ejects himself off the ropes and catches Steele with a hard swinging spinebuster. Resulting in both men being laid out in the center of the ring, eyes glazed over completely and forcing Senator to execute yet another ten count, the fourth of the night.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
NINE!
By the risky count of nine, the challenger has found his arm over the body of the champion just in time. Senator stops his ten count and begins his pin count.
ONE…
…TWO…
THREE-NO!

Manchester sends a uproar of cheers, even the crowd drained now with this match as people among the stands begin to whisper to each other about how unbelievable this all is. It should be known now that if there is a match they will talk about after this PPV is over besides the Fallen Heroes Battle Royal, this is sure to be it. XS3 drags his body up, his veins pumping slower than usual but his body still aching for this win, he not only wants it, he needs it, he thrives for it. It is possibly the only thing keeping him alive, and he is using that to make sure he walks out ACW World Heavyweight Champion, friends or no friends, family or no family.
He paces towards Steele, and reaches for his head, slowly bringing him to his knees. He slowly clenches his fist and starts cracking it over the forehead of Jake, making sure each shot sinks in deeper than the other. Steele sways back and forth on his two knees, as XS3 takes a few steps back. He shoots a look at his supportive niece, Lauren, and he turns back to Steele, who is on the brink of passing out. XS3 cycles himself around and steps to the side going for what would be a brutal kick - though it misfires as Jake Steele crawls under it, quick to come back around as he tackles the legs of XS3, and he begins to lock in a Figure Four Leg Lock.
What makes this submission stand out is that it’s not just another Figure Four, this is the patented Victory Lock II, performed by The Senator numerous times in battle, giving him many victories, as the name implies. But now, as Steele torques the leg of XS3 and the big toe, causing excruciating pain in the process, this move has been made into the champion’s own. XS3 holds onto the move, trying to find a way to escape it, somehow. Lauren Terry screams her uncle’s name, begging for him to break the move, as Misono chants for her man to break his leg in half. XS3 reaches across the short distance between him and Steele, trying to knock him down with some punches and break apart the hold by all means.
The Senator folds his arms, still surprised and literally sick to his stomach while watching a man he has called disrespectful, show the ultimate form of disrespect by using this move. XS3's fist balls up, and he lets a loud scream out into the air. He unwraps his fist and does the very last thing he wanted to, he taps out. The Senator very reluctantly rings for the bell and Phillip calls it to much applause through the arena.
Phillip: Ladies and Gentlemen, here is your winner… and STILL ACW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, JAKE STEELE!

As the bell continues to sound off, Senator Phillips cannot bear to see his submission being used for evil in his eyes and he immediately urges Steele to let go. Steele finally lets go after about ten more seconds and accepts the ACW World Title from the guest referee.
XS3 remains on the canvas, not realizing what has occurred, as the camera glances up to see Phillips take the arm of Steele, and reluctantly raise it to the air, turning the champion around to face all four sides of the audience, presenting him to the fans. The Senator looks up at the ceiling, barely holding in his true feelings of the event, having fairly refereed an event that saw a worst case scenario finish in his eyes. Steele begins to move away, but the guest referee hold his arm up one more time…and then the unthinkable occurs.
Phillips spins on a dime, keeping Steele’s near arm in the air, while swinging his arm in an underhand motion, shooting a knife-hand into the throat of the ACW World Heavyweight Champion, connecting with the Deadline.
Steele collapses to his knees, clutching his throat in what should have been a moment of pure glory, gasping for the return of his breath. Before he can even comprehend the situation, Steele is met with a running Partisan Kick to the head, and the Senator stands over the champ, throwing kick after kick to the head, opening up a deep gash over the left eyebrow. Like a ravenous shark in the ocean, Phillips zeroes in on the cut, diving down and raining closed fist strikes, splattering blood over the front of his referee uniform, his fists, and the mat itself.
Having punched himself out, the Senator stands up, raising his arms in a quick victory pose, before wiping his bloody hands on the front of his referee shirt, before removing the garment, and tossing it over a shoulder. Phillips almost walks away, but has second thoughts, and returns to stand over Steele, Ali-style, yelling the words “you brought this upon yourself!”
Looking from the outside, Demon Inc decide that enough is enough and step up onto the apron to prevent any further attacks from Phillips. Maximus and Kenji herds the politician out of the ring. Steele, finally free of his assailant, smacks some sense into his head, and begins to pull himself up, without a little difficulty. But just then, Fox takes a page from XS3's book and smirks at Jake, who smirks back. Fox turns to Ken and nods.
Fox: Now.
Ken complies and suddenly reaches out in front of him, grabbing Jake by the throat. As Jake is brought up for a chokeslam, it's hard to tell who's more surprised: Senator, Lauren, the fans or XS3 himself. Jake crashes to the canvas and Maximus and Kenji go over to the fallen champ and begin stomping away at him. As Fox helps XS3 back up, the Senator is seen heading to the back, booed by many of the confused fans as he does so. XS3 is wondering it too as Kenji holds Jake up and points at Christine, who goes over and rears back with her leg. Christine swings it hard and connects with a vicious kick to Jake's groin that sends him on his knees. Kenji then points to XS3, who decides to take the moment rather than question it. Maximus goes over to the champ and holds him by the head.
Maximus: Consider this our notice, "boss". Oh and by the way…?
As Maximus sees XS3 bouncing off the ropes, he smiles and utters two words Jake will probably never want to hear again:
Maximus: "Nothing personal."
After those chilling words, Maximus jumps back and XS3 connects with a brutal Shadow Step that nearly rips the champ in half. XS3 then gets back up to his feet and sees Maximus presenting the ACW World Heavyweight Championship to him. XS3 accepts the belt but instead of raising it above his head like the first time he turned on Jake, he simply gazes at it for a few seconds then drapes it across Jake's waist to signify that he is still the champion. XS3 then turns around and catches Christine in his arms, with Christine shedding tears of joy at having her husband back. The two lock lips for a few good seconds before Ken and Kenji attack XS3 from the sides with a hug, Maximus squeezes on the front with Christine, Lauren jumps on XS3's back, almost choking him out in the process and Fox jumps in between Maximus and Kenji.
The seven of them all look out towards the crowd and begin to taunt them in jubilation, having pulled a fast one over all of them. Misono then enters the ring and puts herself on top of Jake to protect him from anymore damage. The seven of them scoff at her and they all begin making their exit from the ring. Kenji goes over to Philip and retrieves the mask of Exemplar before handing it back to XS3 and taking his leave with the now-reunited Demon Inc. Together, the seven of them make it up to the top of the stage and raise their arms to show the world that even though XS3 is not the ACW World Champion, he has his life back where it belongs.
As they disappear behind the curtain, Jake is seen recovering in the ring and Misono helps him up to his feet. Referee Raymond Allen Fleming and the medical crew rush down to the ring, stabilizing the champ, but Steele is made of stern stuff, he's a warrior through it all, and refuses to leave the ring without his title, and crawls over to possess it, leaving a trail of crimson on the mat as he does so. Misono tends to Jake once more as the last shot we see is Jake Steele left in the ring in a broken heap but still he remains...
The ACW World Heavyweight Champion.
Fade.
Post Match Credit goes to The Senator, XS3, and Jake Steele.

Title: Everybody Hates Chris pt. 2 Credit: Chris Phenomenal/Dan White With no one in the Mega Star Alliance nor Senator Steve Phillips willing to help Chris Phenomenal with his problems in the upcoming Fallen Heroes Battle Royal, Chris is still on his trek throughout the backstage area of the Manchester Evening News Arena, searching for someone who can help him with his problems. As he goes on he spots a man who many would consider the favourite to win the Main Event of the evening, and competitor in former Fallen Heroes Battle Royal, Dan White, lounging on a bench getting himself mentally prepared for the match coming up in about five minutes. Chris walks over and takes a seat beside Dan who turns and looks at him, unsure who he is. Dan White: Um, excuse me dude. But who the fuck are you? Chris Phenomenal: Oh sure, so first someone knows me and I don’t get it, he says EVERYBODY knows me, and know I’m a nobody again. This night just keeps better ya heard? First a draw with that chump nugget Jonny Spade, who for some reason I shook his hand, and now, and now my name isn’t even known by the one, the only Dan White.Dan White: Ah, I recognise you. You're that tosser who keeps making fun of Jake Steele and, well, you've done nowt else. Chris Phenomenal: Nothing else, nothing else. I’ve done something you haven’t been able to do and that is conquer Dave Shadow. I pinned his chump ass to win this Entertainment title, and now, and now, I’m here because I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing in this battle royal. We aren’t even five minutes away from the first two entrants and I don’t know where I’m going, or what the hell I’m doing inside of the ring. It’s like…it’s like I’m Jason Freeman now. It isn’t going to work. I need your help.[/I] Chris face is beat red after his spastic answer to Dan White’s question, nearing the point of hyper ventilating and showing all the wrong signs heading into the biggest match of his life. Dan on the other hand is still composed, almost amused at the mess that has become Chris Phenomenal after his match with Jonny Spade. Dan White: Listen dude, I don't know who the hell you are. I'm not here to play games or crap like that. I'm here because I'm going to win that match. If you want any help, just get in the ring and hide behind RDK, or something. Getting the same response he got last time sends Chris once again into a wild frenzy, his eyes popping out of their sockets and his face boiling with rage. He grabs a hold of the water bottle beside Dan and flings it halfway down the hall as Dan looks on, now a bit of concern on his face. Dan White: Ey, Ey, calm down. It's not the end of the world. The Manchester crowd appreciate the mock camera Chris Phenomenal: Seriously Dan, that’s easy for you to say. Calm down, calm down. You’ve been in what, three Fallen Heroes so you know what your doing and I don’t. I’m just screwing around here, I just, I just.[/I] Dan looks at Chris, trying to get the thought out of his head. When it doesn’t come to him Dan interjects Dan White: Look, I've worked hard for this. This might be my last fucking chance in this company to get anywhere far, and I'm not letting some whiteboy punk like yourself get in the way. So do me a favour, and fuck off. With that Dan walks away, his business finished or possibly the fact that he doesn’t want to risk another Phenomenal outburst. Chris watches him walk away before sitting almost exactly where he was and placing his hands in his head. The Battle Royal near moments away. Chris Phenomenal: What am I going to do, what the hell am I going to do.[/I] A vibrating sound is heard as Chris lifts his head up and looks around before realizing it’s the cell phone in his hoody pocket. He pulls it out and looks at the text message he has just received. Chris,
You’ll be just fine out there tonight, just stay calm and you’ll do great.
I’ll be watching. [/center] Chris looks at the text message and reads them a second time and the change is like night and day, from nearly about to be admitted to a mental institution to the epitome of focus. Chris get’s up off the bench, his game face now on. Chris Phenomenal: Let’s do it.With that Chris Phenomenal starts his path down the halls, ready and raring to go for the Fallen Heroes battle royal.

“WINTER’S THAW” [/font] Credit: Thunderkiss[/center] [You could only imagine her exuberance when she got a text message from her brother to meet her here tonight. It has been close to a year since Winter York last spoke to her sibling and her final memories of him were quite unpleasant. Reeling with the possession of Jashin at the time, Thunderkiss was anything but cordial as he ensured he would not hurt his sister by pushing her out of his life much in the same manner as he did to Anna. Months have passed since that hot, summer day and the winds of change have blown through both their lives. Out is Jashin; in is Anna. Also back is the world of professional wrestling that doubles as Thunderkiss’ second home. Upon discovering that he was going to “temporarily locate” to an arena four hours from London, Winter prayed that he would seek her out. Her prayers have been answered. By the wrong person.] Winter: Hello? [Instructed to meet him by the arena’s back bay doors she is taken aback by how remote and “un-Aiden like” this location is. Certainly, this is a rendezvous point not up to par of a man who likes to show off at any given opportunity. Against her better judgement she persists for the potential of a family reunion far outweighs any consequences that be had.] “Im in here.” Winter: Aiden? [Inside a nearby, vacant utility closet his voice beckons. It draws her in like a siren’s melody and before she knows it, she is surrounded by total darkness, darkness that veils “Aiden,” keeping his secret safely concealed. Frantically her hands search for a light switch but they come up empty. She has only his voice to rely on for comfort. ‘Tis a pity there is none to be found here.] “Hello sis.” Winter: Where are you? It so dark in here... “Close.” Winter: Oh Aiden, how have you been? Last time I saw you, you were so distraught. I’ve been worried sick about you, you know that?! Why did you ever push me away? “I didn’t.” Winter: That’s not how I remember it. The last time I saw you, you were wallowing around on the floor sounding as if you would do something very irrational. You told me that day to stay away and with I heavy heart, I have. Instead, I have been following your progress using the same means as millions of strangers and as your half sister that pains me to no end. If that is what I must do to keep track of my brother so be it, but I hope tonight you will allow me to enter your life once more. I miss you, Aiden. Love you. “Love me?” Winter: Of course! You are my brother and I always will love you! Despite what you sometimes think, you have many people that DO care about you. Dad has been asking about you for months, and every time when I tell him I have no news to share you can see the sorrow in his eyes. He wants to see his son again and in turn, his grandson. Do you know how long its been since we’ve seen Dillon? Almost a year. That is simply unfair to us. I’m just glad that you have Anna back in your life. She’s good for you, you know that? “I wouldn’t know. She’s not well right now.” Winter: Wait, did something happen? Is she ill? Last time I saw her she looked just fine. “Yes, something did happen.” [It’s time to end this charade by stepping into the spotlight. The light that filters through the doorway onto the far corner of the room shall serve that very purpose. Into it he steps, his iron clad face exposed in all its glory. At first sight it causes her heart to race straight out of her chest and her nerves to unravel. Her brain screams at her legs to run, but they can’t. They are frozen in fear.] Aiden Joseph: Thunderkiss, happened. Winter: Oh God, you’re not Aiden!!! Aiden Joseph: So I’ve heard.. ~!~SLASH~!~ [She doesn’t even see it coming. From the darkness comes the glint of cold, hard, steel sharpened with the intent to cut through flesh like a hot knife through butter. The triple prongs do their job well and now revel in the blood of their target. It’s good to know in a world where all have abandoned him, the blades that reside upon his hand never fail him. As a reward for their loyalty, “Aiden” cleans them affectionately with his tongue, freeing them from the salty wet residue that only makes him crave for more.] Aiden Joseph: Now, now my pet. Do not fret. There will be PLENTY more from where that came from. Heh. Hehehehaehahaehe. [FADE]

One More Round Dan White We're just a few minutes away from the Fallen Heroes Battle Royale.
And yet for Dan White, it could be his last bow.
We've heard it all before. From when he went on hiatus in late 2005, to leaving in 2006 and vowing never to return to wrestling. The short-lived return in 2007 led to a complete revamp of his life, and again he had made his exit. But he came back, at this PPV, this time last year. Even then, his future wasn't set. Emperor of the Ring came, where he put his future in the hands of his peers, those of whom he's never been all too chummy around. They voted him to stay, but only by a margin. It wasn't a confident return by any means. But he ground out results, up to the point where now, just moments away from the biggest match of his career, we could be witnessing the last of Dan White.
But it's not been easy. Not in the last three or four months. Chairman Gingerdude has expressed his distaste in Dan White's attitude and methods of winning, but how can you blame the Welshman? He's fighting for a better future for himself, and he's doing that by winning matches by any means necessary. And the fans love that. They love a man who came from lower than the majority of any of those lot, and has built his way up. It's inspiration, it's passion and it's hunger. And that's what you need in this business. Dan has shown this with the performances he's given. And that is something that you cannot take away from the man. He strives to win and he strives to do his best.
But Fallen Heroes is the one match, the last match he has to try and accomplish anything in this business. His contract ends a day later, and with Gingerdude's increasing hatred for the man, it's looking ever likely that failure to win tonight would mean a trip to the dole office for Dan. In this economic climate you can't guarantee you'll have anything to fall back on. Sure, Dan has the marketability to ensure that he's got enough cash to set him for life, but that's not what he's here for. He wants to go out into the M.E.N arena tonight, and set the crowd alight. And he wants to go to Omega Effect V, ACW's biggest event to date, and win the World Heavyweight Title, almost five years in the making.
But it's not going to be easy. There are a number of names in the competition to be weary about. Hollywood Mach, aka Randy Dallas Kanyon is one. A former two-time World champion, and a man who knows a thing or two about Fallen Heroes Battle Royales. Indeed, he was very successful in the inaugural match. Then there's Senator Steve Phillips. Although he's been taking it more easy lately, he never got a chance to cash in his title shot last yeah, and that was at the hands of Dan White. There are other people in the match, that you could consider dark horses. The likes of Danny Mainer, Thunder Train, Rawt and Jason Freeman can all potentially shake things up.
And then, of course, you have two me that you have to consider two of the large favourites of the match. Thunderkiss and Dave Shadow. It's every man for themselves, but how much might Gingerdude have influenced either of their plans? Is Shadow only 30th to help give Thunderkiss an easy ride to the top? Is it vice versa? Well we'll find out soon enough.
The camera faded in to Dan White looking into a mirror. He's silent, staring back at himself. He knows that he's got everything, and yet nothing to lose. The lights then switch off, although Dan this time isn't startled.Voice: It's time, Dan. It's gonna be good.
Fade out.

Match 5: Fallen Heroes 30-man Battle Royale (Credit: Danny Mainer, Chris Phenomenal, Hollywood Mach, Thunderkiss, Dan White, Jake Steele, XS3, AK) And so, the time has come. Only those made of the sternest stuff can expect to make it through the entirety of the Fallen Heroes Battle Royale... and that’s just the fans we’re talking about. Philip stands ready to get the ball rolling...The sound of “Sunrise”, the old theme of one Stan Hansen hits and the Fallout Fanatics in the ACW arena begin to mark as striding out of the curtain is of course the infamous user of the Western Lariat, Stan H. Johnston as the number one entrant in tonight’s grand battle royale. Of course, he strides down to the ring with a smile on his face and he climbs in as his arrival is proudly announced. Jones: Ladies and gentleman this is your main event and the fifth annual Fallen Heroes Battle Royale! Introducing first, from Houston, Texas weighing in at 265 pounds. He is a former openweight champion, STAN… HAITCH… JOHNSTONNNNNNN!!! ”Fast” Eddie Edison: Fallout is making their presence known tonight here in the building! Maxwell McNally: Indeed, and it’s Stan H. Johnson who’s drawn the short straw for this year. But I don’t think he looks that cut up about it. He climbs in and takes his place in the corner with a large cheesy grin on his face as the crowd begin to settle down for the next entrant. “Superstars” by Jim Johnson hits and out of the curtain strides another gargantuan, Chris Penomenal. Not particularly pleased with his luck of the draw, especially given he’s already wrestled one match tonight, he heads down to the ring as the crowd give him a mixed reaction. Jones: And from Harlem, New York. Weighing in also at 265 pounds, he is the Entertainment Champion… CHRIS PHENOMENAL! ”Fast” Eddie Edison: Of all the bum draws... Phenomenal gets slot #2, Max. Maxwell McNally:Personally, I have a sneaking suspicion it’s no co-incidence to see an MSA member so early on. Hopping up onto the apron he then climbs through the ropes and sizes his opponent up. His fists clenched and a smirk on his face, Phenomenal is ready to go as after his music dies down. Finally, once the audience have been hushed there’s nothing stopping this match from getting underway. DINGDINGDING! Like the greatest of fighters they start this enconter off by circling the ring trying to size one another up and seize an opening. Stan. H. Johnston only being 25, he has a distinct five year learning curve ahead of Chris Phenomenal who is twenty years old. In a battle of a cocky, brash and wild powerhouse against a modest, disciplined and brash brawler, who will prevail? Neither it seems as they both run into each other and start to deliver clubbing fists. Though both men way the same, Chris is ever so slightly taller. It’s a pretty even match as the two exchange wild swinging fists which crash into each others’ blocks with the force of cannons. The two stop blocking and start taking punches like men with shot after shot being taken in turns to be dealt. After about seven or eight shots, Chris stops this by delivering a flash kick to the stomach before attempting to hook up a Scoop Slam. Johnston slides down the back though and counters by shoving Phenomenal into the turnbuckle. Edison: And we’re off to a flying start here in Manchester, Stan and Phenomenal trading blows in the ring and now Phenomenal is in that danger zone of the corner! This doesn’t look too good for him! Phenomenal takes it to the chest hard. Johnston catches up to Chris and attempts to shoulder barge him but Phenomenal parries out of the way and shoves Johnston into the corner and putting his arms either side of the rope. Chris then hits a knife edge chop right to the chest to which the crowd “Woo!” for. Chris slashes with another chop and then a third, he then jabs Stan quickly in the head before turning on his heels, running about two metres back then turning again and jumping at Stan with a Body Splash to the corner. Stan jumps out of the way in the nick of time and Chris hits his ribs. Stan wasting no time hooks Chris up for a back superplex to which the crowd cheer for as he lifts him up onto the apron. Stan smiles before he uses all of his might to throw Chris back and plant him straight to the mat with authority. Both men get up instantly due to not being fatigued but Chris is roaring with pain in his back. He runs around in circles trying to walk off as unbeknownst to him Stan is bouncing off the ropes only to bring Chris crashing down to the mat with a thunderous big boot nearly dislocating Phenomenal’s jaw. McNally: What a shot! That back Suplex and then that big boot in sequence? Can’t have been good for Chris right there! Edison: True that, Stan’s giving him a good kicking in so far! Chris is slowly getting up as Stan skulks behind him, the crowd roaring and ready to go as Stan has both fists raised for a block. Chris finally on his feet is unaware of the big man behind him and as he turns around he’s hoisted up for a big time Scoop Slam but that’s as far as it gets as Chris hits a hard elbow to the face. Clambering down the back he gives Stan H. Johnston the receiving end of a tribute to Arn Anderson with a big time AA Spinebuster with the 180 spin. Chris looks and sees that the clock is ticking down. 10… 9… 8… 7… 6… 5… 4… 3… 2… 1- *KLAXON*Philip And from… umm… somewhere, the number three entrant Jade Amuro!

“Lost to Apathy” by Dark Tranquility hits and as is to be, Jade Amuro herself runs out of the curtain to a lions roar from the male demographic. The somewhat worn out but still beautiful woman doesn’t have all the zest she used to but she’s making her way down at great pace. Several in the back wonder just how much work her makeup is doing tonight, however...
Edison: YES! This is the best battle royal ever!
McNally: *facepalm*
She hits the ring like lightning and even though both men tower over her she shows little fear and brings a fore-arm straight into Chris Phenomenal’s face. The rush of energy and adrenaline fuels her as she feels great just to be in front of the crowd again, the great ACW fans themselves. Chris Phenomenal instinctively tries to punch her in the face but she ducks and darts behind him running to the ropes and coming back with an impressive dropkick that brings big man Phenomenal stumbling back down to one knee. Stan H. Johnston after the spinebuster is finally back up and he in an attempt to take down the adrenaline spike of one Jade Amuro flails out with a wild boot hoping to catch her chin. She ducks that too though but instead of heading for the ropes she leaps on his back and starts to rake his eyes showing off that side of her that made her famous. The bitch-fighter. Stan yells curses as his eyes are probed by the slender, claw like fingers of Ms. Amuro.
McNally: Wow! Jade here already getting into the thick of it. She’s got that same dirty gameplan she had when she was here last time.
Edison: Yup! Stan H. Johnston is seeing that first hand, pun intended!
Jade continues to claw unaware that Chris Phenomenal is rising up once again. However, her ring senses make her remember that he was only kneeling during the dropkick. She jumps down and attempts to keep Phenomenal at bay with a swift kick to the head but Chris grabs her leg and just throws her to one side instead looking to take care of the stunned Stan still temporarily blinded. Chris attacks with a kick to the stomach before lifting Stan for the Carnage Cutter. Stan is easily lifted up and Chris has a large grin on his face as he realizes it’s time to take him out. He twists his hip to start the Carnage Cutter and then launches Stan but as he’s dropped Chris is hit with a Top Rope Chop Block from Jade which does little but hit his leg a bit and add WAY more impact to Stan as his jaw ricochets off of the shoulder. Stan lies on his back, rolling his neck and checking for damage. Chris clutches his leg as Jade starts to stomp the grounded Chris. The display signals showing that another entry will soon to be made.
Edison: Here comes the next entrant!

Philip And the number four entrant, he is The Welsh Dragon DAN WHITE!
The Mancunian crowd ROAR with approval as out of the curtain storms Dan White. Dan has put so much effort into preparing for this big match and you can tell that as he looks the absolute apex of his career right now. He runs to the ring with a massive smile on his face as he’s convinced he has this in the bag.
McNally: This is one of my personal picks, Dan White is in a make or break situation here, if he loses tonight he has no contract to fall back on and he’ll more then likely be gone from the ACW for the rest of his life. He could’ve given up the battle royal and taken a HUGE Legends Contract but he’s here and now, he has to win this match or be banished.
Edison: Legends Contract? I can’t believe he passed that up, the money on those things are INCREDIBLE. I hear Starkweather quit his dayjob for a Legends Contract.
Dan White sees the pile of bodies on the floor after the Carnage Cutter/Chop Block combo and figures it’s best to pick the scraps. Using good logic he chooses the most severely weakened which at this stage is Stan H. Johnston to work on. Lifting him up to his feet Dan drags him into the corner and starts to kick him in the stomach repeatedly until it becomes a barbaric mudhole stomping as Chris and Jade get up. Jade walks backwards to evade Chris Phenomenal annoyed at the even number situation where she now can’t avoid anyone. Dan White is still bullying Stan H. Johnston in the corner until an ingenious idea hits him. He grabs Stan by the head and continues to punch his face in repeatedly until finally he turns around and shouts “OI!” to Phenomenal. Chris instinctively turns around only to be forcefully headbutted by Stan who was booted by Dan. Both men hit the deck as Dan smirks at his inventive handiwork.
McNally: OOFT! Meeting of the minds right there!
Edison: There’s not much mind to meet though, Phenomenal tried to mess up Danny Mainer and that was about as smart as injecting heroine on a balcony fifteen feet up. Not very. Point being, Dan has this advantage. He just makes things up that nobody else would see. He’s an artist in that ring.
Jade silently thanks Dan for stopping Chris from being an issue for her but she realizes now that Dan White is the issue… Or at least she thinks he is, Dan doesn’t care much for her and so grabs his Mega-Star Alliance rival. The Empire Leader lifts up the muscle of The MSA and dumps him to the floor again with a DDT. Capitalizing on the distraction, Jade jumps on Dan White’s back again but on instinct he runs and squashes her between his frame and the turnbuckle. She moans in pain as Dan turns and belts her right in the face causing her to fall to a seated position in the corner. Dan then turns and sees Stan H. Johnston getting up very slowly. He runs over and launches a boot out to his head but Stan catches the kick and twirls Dan around into a dizzy daze before returning the favour and headbutting him. Dan hits the ground as Stan clutches his forehead, in immense pain from having nutted the Entertainment Champion. Stan sees Jade in the corner and starts a run to go hit her with a Shoulder Barge but Jade screams a piercing scream which stops him in his track allowing her to poke him in the eyes. The arrival of the next entrant is signalled as Dan White is starting to get up
Edison: Here comes the next entrant! I wonder who it will be!
McNally: Time tells all!

Philip: The number five entrant, from Okinawa, Japan...YUKI SATOSHIIIIIIII!!!!!

Post by Alicia "Atomic" Kitsune on Apr 25, 2009 15:55:23 GMT -5
McNally: If Yuki ever wants to live up to the legacy of her sister Yoko she has a HELL of a learning curve to get used to. Yoko was one of the greats and well I have to say, how incredible of a kickstart would it be if in what, her second match in ACW was to win the Fallen Heroes Battle Royal? That kind of thing is unheard of and I’ll honestly say that’d be a sure-fire way to guarantee she’ll more then match up to her sister’s potential and talent.
Edison: She has Satoshi blood in her, she has the skill alright.
Yuki has a legacy to live up to tonight alright. Running at high speed towards the ring Chris Phenomenal stands near the ropes ready to intercept her as the match starts getting a little bigger, people wise. Stan H. Johnston has 99 problems, the “bitch” on his back being one as she fights real dirty. Jade has her claws into his chest and is biting the dome of his head violently like the kind of stuff you see on BDSM websites, perhaps another symptom of her less than ideal mental state. Or maybe Stan tastes like chocolate. In the meantime, Dan White is dealing with MSA threat Chris Phenomenal who has since rolled out of the ring to try and get some R&R. Yuki hits the ring and slides under the bottom rope giving the English fans every reason to thank God for the age of consent being sixteen in this country. She doesn’t really know who to aim for but the eyes of Jade are completely locked on Yuki as she remembers the love she once knew for her older sister Yoko… not remembers but recalls, the ones she could never forget. The good times roll through her mind as this horrible reminder of everything she has lost causes her to lose focus on the task at hand. Stan realizing this throws her off and seeks Yuki. He doesn’t have to look hard though as he receives a Spinning Back Kick from the young girl before he realizes it. Yuki then shows incredible skill by grabbing Stan and heading for the corner delivering a Shiranui, hitting the ground with might.
McNally: Dan White and Chris on the outside now, Yuki showing INCREDIBLE agility with that Sliced Bread No. 2, Jade is recuperating in the corner. What’s gonna’ happen next?
Edison: We’ll have to see!
Chris having smashed Dan’s head into the ring post is now being yelled at by RAF to get back into the ring. He agrees and makes good on the deal by throwing Dan underneath the bottom rope but hanging his head over the edge of the ring. Chris gets cocky and climbs up onto the apron and sets up as if he were to do a leg drop much to the anger of the referees who persuade him to just get back in the ring. Chris just shakes his head at them disapprovingly before running up for the big leg drop but as he jumps Dan forgets about him and rolls his head out of the way. He heads after another competitor as Chris groans on the apron clutching his weakened leg in pain. Dan sees Jade having a light snooze in the corner but is fully alert when sees The Welsh Dragon coming back in her direction. Jade is quickly up to her feet but the physically superior ring-warrior beats her to the punch hooking a snap Spinechiller Neckbreaker. Stan H. Johnston is slowly working his way up after the heavy Shiranui. Yuki rather sadistically and in a straight forward and quite amusing to watch manner kicks Stan right in the head. Stan clutches his head in pain being the victim of everyone at the moment seemingly as the new entrant prepares to make their presence known.

Philip And the number six entrant, ANDREW STAAARRRRRRRRR!!!
“Are you Dead Yet?” by Children of Bodom hits and another surprise return in the form of Alexi Lai-… Andrew Starr is eminent, the Entourage Alumni looking in great shape as always as he heads down to the ring, his long hair flowing in the wind. Half the audience wonders how there can be wind in an indoor arena, the rest go with it for the sake of poetic licence.
Edison: I’ll always remember this joker as one of if not the only man to ever eliminate HIMSELF from a Fallen Heroes Battle Royale. Point in case at last year’s event where he ended up taking himself out by accident.
{color=yellow]McNally:[/color] Yes, but people forget that while it may have been a self-elimination he also did the impressive feat of taking Torak out with him in that same incident which is by no means a minor achievement and some would call this man a martyr of Fallen Heroes. Still, he’s a big guy and he can fly. A rare feat in this industry!
The former bodyguard of Thunderkiss hits the ring and slides in to see Yuki and Jade exchanging some light mat-wrestling which takes up all the focus from the straight men in the audience while Stan H. Johnston and Dan White square off to one another. That’s when Andrew Starr finds his match, in what could be considered a battle of Old VS New he sets eyes upon Chris Phenomenal and knows of his allegiances with the Mega Star Alliance. Recognition kicks in and both men despise each other instantly. Entourage Passion burns through the heart of Andrew Starr and it becomes a major parallel with Andrew being the protector of TK and Chris being the protector of Macho. Chris favours his leg a little and Andrew just takes one step forward before throwing a wicked right to Chris Phenomenal’s face. Chris falls back onto one knee and Andrew follows up with another punch but Chris leaps up a huge Uppercut that to the untrained eye might even look like his fist is on fire!!!
Edison: SHOOUUUUURYOUKEEEENNNN!!!!!!!
McNally: Impressive uppercut from Phenomenal there! Great to see him back in the ring and Dan taking care of business with Stan.
Andrew is actually taken about a foot off the ground before rolling backwards. Dan tried to hit an Roundhouse Kick but Stan ducked it and returned fire with a big right handed slap straight to the face like a bitch. Dan is a little irate at this show of disrespect and tries to kick him in the gut but it’s not happening as a jab to the face is hit first from Stan which throws him right off. Stan then runs to the right and bounces off the ropes with a BIG TIME Western Lariat! The first finisher of the night connects to Dan who doesn’t back-flip but he hits the ground hard as the Texan parades his victory. Yuki is sat in the corner for some reason unknown and Stan is the victim of Jade hitting a big time Top-Rope Double Axe Handle. Jade rolls straight from that move into going after Yuki with a big turnbuckle dropkick but Yuki rolls and she misses completely landing awkwardly in the corner. Dan starts crawling away to the safe recluse of a corner. When Dan is sat in the corner and Chris Phenomenal VS Andrew Starr takes centre stage it finally becomes time for the next entrant to arrive. Stan is out on the floor from the Axe Handle and Yuki is leaning on the ropes to catch her breath while Andrew and Chris exchange punches and that’s finally when it’s time for number 7.

“God of Thunder” by Iced Earth hits and the Kiss Army rocket to their feet to celebrate the arrival of their God. As has previously been noted, however, tonight they are very much in the minority. Thunderkiss on his walk down to the ring points to the die-hards in the building and smiles briefly before running up to the apron and climbing in to join the fray.
Edison: It’s obvious that even though his father in law owns the company that Zero Tolerance can’t control every factor within this match up. We already know that Dave Shadow is coming in at number thirty and it’s going to be a LOOOONG night before he gets out here. Thunderkiss is going to endure a lot before his tag team partner gets here.
McNally: I’ll agree with you that it will be a long climb but Gingerdude and his boys will have something ghastly up their sleeves, without question. I’m not so sure it’ll be as difficult for them as you make it out to be.
Thunderkiss makes his superiority known by interrupting the Chris Phenomenal/Andrew Starr confrontation. He shoves Starr out the way cockily.
Thunderkiss: Step aside, Andrew! Papa’s gotta’ send a message to MachoPuke!
Andrew doesn’t need much more persuasion then that and allows Thunderkiss to grab Phenomenal by the throat and begin to strangle him for a few seconds before drawing back the guns and hitting Kickstart my Heart causing Chris to jump and clutch his chest in agony. Dan is finally back on his toes waiting and looking around for an opportunity. TK drops Chris with the Box Office Smash but is blind-sided by Texan Stan H. Johnston who hits a double axe handle to the neck which doesn’t really phase him all that much. TK turns around and elbows him in the nose with such velocity that even the crowd feel it. Stan stumbles away as Chris is on his feet again. Andrew Starr devotes his time to Dan White by brawling with him in the turnbuckle.
TK sees that Yuki is unaware of Jade about to jump on her back and soon she makes the leap. She lands and TK is too busy watching to notice Phenomenal fore-arm him in the face. TK turns and fires his fore-arm back to the head before firing up The Love Gun. Chris is almost caught but he managed to dodge the shot by an inch, whiffing straight past his torso. Chris with the side-step then hits a punch to the head followed by another and another pushing him back to the ropes. The taller Chris Phenomenal whips TK across the ropes but TK bounces back with a Big Boot, the second one that Phenomenal has received tonight and he hits the ground hard.
Edison: WOAHOHO! What a shot! He took Chris down hard there!
McNally: I’ll say! He got caught right off guard! Wait, look at Yuki! What the Heck is she doing?
It seems that Yuki has turned the tables on her rival Jade and is now on her back instead. She’s shifted her weight to put herself so that she still has a Sleeper Hold on but her legs are propped on top of the turnbuckle. She hits an AMAZING feat of agility by pushing up and leaping onto Jade’s shoulders, jumping off and hurtling through the air hitting Stan H. Johnston with a major dropkick. The crowd mark for this spot as Yuki brushes sweat off her forehead while Jade seems furious about the whole ordeal. She growls and sees Chris Phenomenal recuperating from the big boot and starts to fore-arm him in the face.

Philip And the number eight entrant… JASON FREEEEEMAAAAAANNNNNN!!!!
Freeman walks out, the very picure of focus. Senator’s wise words seem to have been heeded, for he doesn’t waste a heartbeat heading straight to the ring and getting right into the thick of action targeting the closest person to him which is the Andrew Starr/Dan White corner fiasco. His physique looks better then ever but he’s overexerted himself ridiculously in the run-up, and no one knows whether this will show itself as the match progresses. He grabs Starr and DDT’s him straight to the mat not even checking to see if he’s alive or not after the straight impact to the neck. He then turns and tries to eliminate the man that he feels is the biggest threat in the competition, Dan White. His old rival throws a kick his way but Jason is WAAAAAY too wired up to not counter it. He uses the leg leverage and drags him out of the corner and into the ropes. Dan wraps his arms around the top ropes as Freeman lifts him up by his leg soon grabbing the other one as well to throw him right over the top. Dan starts to lean perilously over and it becomes apparent that everyone’s favourite to win this might just be the man that’s first eliminated from this competition. Dan finally bowls over but due to his arms being wrapped around the ropes he’s able to balance. Freeman hits a spinning back kick to his stomach causing Dan to fall. Pure skill saves Dan as he grabs the middle rope and desperately kicks his feet up from touching the floor.
Edison: Wow! What strength on the part of Dan White! I have no idea how he’s managed to hold on! That’s incredible!
McNally: This is why I think he’s going to do so well, he has that raw intensity to stay in the game!
Freeman is about to try and finish the job but Phenomenal is back and back-suplexing the living hell out of Freeman. He crashes to the mat harshly as on the other side of the ring Jade is straight back on Yuki trying to eliminate her. She uses her hair as leverage trying to pull her over the top rope that way but Ol’ Man Thunderkiss isn’t going to let that happen. He grabs Jade and pulls her away before lifting her overhead for the second finisher of the night. The Heaven’s Door!! is hit and Jade hits the mat like a sack of crap. She lies motionless as Yuki’s eye contact with TK is all that’s needed to say thanks. TK turns to see Dan White vaulting back over the top rope and that’s when old intensities boil up real good. He heads over with intensity and grabs the dreadlocked warrior and attempts to hurt him somehow but Dan punches him in the face and finally the countdown signals for the next entrance.

“Gourmet Race – Metal Remix” hits and Thunder Train storms out the curtain in all of his beefy glory. He sees a man in the audience with a hamburger and rips it out of his hands before devouring it whole in one mouthful. He then wipes his face with the back of his hand and runs down to the ring. As promised he runs around the ring to give the title to the referee.
Edison: I can’t say that this entrant looks good for Chris, Dan, OR Thunderkiss! In fact, he hates every one of those men!
McNally: I wonder how this one will pan out for the International Champion! REMEMBER. Whoever eliminates Thunder Train takes home that shiny International Title of his! It’s truly make or break for TK’s ex-bodyguard.
As ploys go, he heads in the back way through the ring and looks for his first challenger.
Train surveys Freeman and Starr battling in the corner, Yuki going after the former partner of her sister Yoko, Jade, Thunderkiss trying to push Dan White over the top rope and front and center is the battle between Chris and Stan recommencing the two coming to blows and neither pulling any punches. Train starts to interject but thinking wisely retreats to the one free corner and waits for something to come his way. Stan fires a right at Chris who takes it square on the chin as he comes back with a European uppercut, and another, and another backing him towards Dan White and Thunderkiss, Dan White now on the offence having worked his way back into the ring before whipping him across it towards Andy Starr and Freeman causing a small switch in sparring partners as TK clothes lined Freeman over the top rope but not to the floor below as Andy Starr turned and spotted his former partner in Mestaurrus. This pause cost him however as Jade whipped Yuki across the ring and into Andy Starr who looked to take her out with an Andrew Starr Lariat but missed as Yuki ducked, stopped on a dime and as Starr turned around cracked him with a huge roundhouse kick to the temple, and immediately went back after Jade and now finally Thunder Train is drawn into the action squaring off with Dan White. The two brawle as the focus was turned back to Stan and Chris Phenomenal, Stan now looking to clothesline Chris Phenomenal over the rope but Chris ducked it backdrop Johnston over but not the floor as he hung on the ropes. That didn’t last for long however as Chris turned around and cracked Johnston with a beautiful high elevation drop kick scoring with the jaw and sending Stan to the mat below, Chris Phenomenal recording the first elimination of the battle royal.
Phillip Jones: Stan Johnston has been eliminated.
McNally: Chris Phenomenal making a splash in his first ever Fallen Heroes battle royal.
Edison: That elimination will go down in the record books!
Chris Phenomenal looks down at Stan Johnston having eliminated the man who went undefeated on fallout for over two and a half years. This pause almost costs him as Andrew Starr having recovered tries to flip Chris out of the ring but he manages to hang on as the countdown begins.

Philip: Introducing…PREDATOR!!!
From backstage one of the most controversial men in ACW history bursts out as the few remaining Pred Heads explode but the rest of the crowd jeers as Predator takes his time making it to the ring. Dan White has managed to take it to Thunder Train, trying to single handedly fling him over the top rope but is unable to, and instead tries to use his feet connecting with a dragon screw which serves to incapacitate Train but not eliminate him. Much the same manner Andy Star is able to take Chris out for a moment with a snap DDT. Predator finally climbs into the ring as Yuki and Jade continue to brawl, now the center of attention as Yuki has Jade in position for her sister’s famed Flying Guillotine but she misses as Jade counters it and connects with a spinning heel kick flooring Yuki. This draws the attention of the protective Thunderkiss who vacates Freeman, now sitting in the corner after connecting with a few large shoulder blocks in the corner and attacks Jade immediately with a vicious forearm smash. Predator and Dan White are now squaring off, two former entertainment champions going after each other with a variety of strikes, before Dan whips Predator across and looks to hit him with a clothesline but misses as Predator ducks it and counters with one of his own on the rebound. Thunder Train is back to his feet as now Predator and Train square off, neither man willing to give an inch as Thunderkiss is still taking it to Jade. His one track mind however almost costs him as still harbouring a grudge from the break up of the untouchables, as Andrew Starr comes over and blind sides Thunderkiss with a clubbing blow to the back, saving Jade from being eliminated by Thunder Kiss. Starr takes it to TK with a few smashing blows as they take center stage. Everything seems to pause as Starr loses control before getting backed up against the ropes, as Kiss looks for the elimination only for Dan White to come in and flip Thunderkiss out of the ring…

But not to the floor below as Thunderkiss managed to hang on by the slimmest of margins. Dan immediately starts going after Andy Starr, trying to get a quick elimination as Chris is back up to his feet and goes after Jade.
Edison: Dan White almost got the ultimate revenge on Thunderkiss there.
McNally: That would have been something if Thunderkiss had been eliminated early on in the match...
Chris and Jade begin to brawl, as Starr do Starr and Dan, disregarding any former allegiances taking an every man for themselves mentality. Yuki and Freeman are back up to their feet and sufficiently recovered start going after each other. Freeman’s training regiment is panning out as he is able to take it to Yuki and stay in control as the countdown begins for the eleventh entrant.

Philip: Introducing…
Phillip Jones pauses not announcing the next entrant as the fans are somewhat confused, before The familiar music of the Fallout Branch of the Senatorial Stable appears and Kevin Fitz Harris AND Anthony Kalb make their way to the ring.
McNally: Are they both the number eleven entrant?
Edison: I’m not quite certain here Max.
Fitzharris and Kalb reach the bottom, even the ringside referees are confused until from Kalb pulls out a quarter from his pocket.
McNally: What is going on here?
Edison: I think they are going to flip a coin to determine who gets to enter.
Kalb calls heads before tossing the coin into the air, as it hits the ground it bounces twice before landing on a head as Anthony Kalb wins the number eleven spot. He dives into the ring as Fitzharris picks up the coin and looks at it before realizing he has been duped by his partner, the coin being double sided. Kalb turns and looks at his partner with a smirk as Fitzharris is visibly annoyed at ringside, and gesticulates at Kalb before heading to the back. Kalb’s pleasure is short lived as he turns around and is caught by Jason Freeman who tosses him over the rope but not to the floor as Kalb dangles by the top rope before skinning the cat to get back into the ring as Freeman smirks, thinking he has gotten a cheap elimination. Instead Kalb punches him square in the back of the head as the two brawl into a corner with Predator and Train close by Pred hanging on by the slimmest of margins. As the four in the corner brawl Chris and TK brawl on the opposite side of the ring, trying to take out the arch enemy of his MSA brethren. Thunderkiss has the experience however and won’t allow Chris to do it, reversing his way out of the corner and pinning Chris in before going to work with a few chops of his own. Everyone seems to be brawling with everyone else, Yuki Satoshi back in action is still getting worked over, her inexperience showing as Dan White is able to back her into the corner and almost throw her out, instead though Yuki is able to reverse it, grabbing Dan with her legs in a head scissors and throw him between the second and third ropes to the floor below, her lack of size costing her.
Edison: I don’t believe this, Dan White has been eliminated from the Fallen Heroes battle royal!!
McNally: No he hasn’t Eddie, Yuki was only able to send him through the ropes, not over them, thus Dan White is still alive, his dreams for Omega Effect V are still in tact.
As Dan White recovers on the floor Yuki is drawn into the battle with Thunderkiss, the two taking advantage and trying to eliminate Chris Phenomenal who has been in the battle royal for the longest time up and to this point. Everyone seems to be focused until Andrew Starr and Jade Amuro break free from their miniature brawl in the corner and turn it into a full fledged war in the middle of the ring. Jade has the advantage after utilizing a quick effective strike to the groin of Starr following it up with a quick DDT. Not trying to waste anytime Jade tries to pick up Starr but couldn’t until Dan White rolled into the ring and tried to help before getting caught by a wild shot from Kalb and Freeman, uniting for a brief moment to go after one of the favorites in Dan White. The three brawl into the corner leaving Dalton and Jade back in the center of the ring alone. Dalton caught Jade with an inverted atomic drop and hit the rope looking to connect with the Andrew Starr Lariat. He did with full force however Jade was also able to turn it into some offense, taking the weight of the blow and flipping and turning the move into a modified C-4 leaving Dalton laid out as well as the crowd popped for the incredible move that just took place.
Edison: DANGEROUS!!!
McNally: I don’t believe what I just saw.
The action stops for a moment as the entire ring is disturbed by the massive impact before everyone returns to fighting, everyone except for Thunderkiss that is, who leaves Yuki with Chris Phenomenal and goes after Andy Starr, seeking retribution for his sneak attack earlier in the match and grabs him, trying to throw him out as the countdown begins.

Thunderkiss was about to eliminate Andrew Starr however as soon as the music of Hollywood Mach hits lets go in order to go after his arch rival, in fact he doesn’t even wait for him to get to the ring instead choosing to slide out and go after him halfway up the entrance ramp but Mach is ready. The two brawl exchanging rights lefts and everything in between neither man giving the other an inch as they fight down the ramp. Officials flock to try and get the two back into the ring but after a few attempts decide that life and limb are more important than separating the two. They continue to brawl as the focus returns to the action inside of the ring with Jade and Starr still down as is Fitzharris now as Freeman was able to release some pent up energy after connecting with an Inverted Final Cut turning his back on the man who had helped him take care of Dan White.
Predator was down in the corner, Thunder Train having connected with a vicious Full Steam ahead out of nowhere after Predator had taken it to him for almost a minute. Train started to get back into the action but recalling his title was on the line, decided to take a break and allow Chris Phenomenal and Yuki to take center stage for a brief moment with Chris having Yoko in his arms looking to military press her out of the ring. Yuki wasn’t finished however, countering it with a hurricanrana right into a shining axe kick from Jason Freeman crumpling Chris as he rolled to the side. TK and Mach were still brawling, this time down to the side of the entrance ramp, Hollywood with an electrical wire around the throat of Thunderkiss. Back in the ring Dan and Starr got to their feet and started to fight with renewed vigour but were only in the spotlight for a moment as Freeman continuing his roll at this point grabbed Jade and decided it was time for him to record his first elimination of the night, firing her out of the ring and to the floor below.
Phillip Jones: Jade Amuro has been eliminated.
Jason Freeman looks at the fallen Amuro, content with the fact that his extra training has, at least to this point proven sufficient. Jade gets up slowly, and the crowd applauds her as she makes her way to the back. All of a sudden she looks extremely frail...
Back in the ring, Freeman’s moment of surveying the scene however costs him as he is blindsided by Dan White who was whipped across the ring by Andrew Starr. Freeman goes flying over the top and grabs a hold of the ring rope with one hand. His extra training is able to pay off as he is able to kick off of Thunderkiss, having finally gotten to ringside with RDK and pull himself back into the ring.
McNally: An interesting move by Jason Freeman there to make sure he stayed alive.
Edison: His luck might be running out however as here comes Thunder Train.
Freeman was about to become more than the butt of Thunder Train’s tired old jokes as he got a hold of the little man and unleashed a furious assault on Freeman before firing him with one hand into the corner and connecting with an enormous collection of knife edge chops. As Yuki and Kalb went toe to toe for a brief second before Yuki was able to connect with a beautiful roundhouse kick to the temple, knocking Kelb out in the middle of the ring, however some could consider him getting the lucky end of the draw as Yuki turned around right into a snarling Chris Phenomenal who lifted her up to his shoulders and went to the corner before delivering a running death valley driver, sending her back first into the turnbuckle as the crowd gasped at Chris Phenomenal. Chris leans over and mutters something in the ear of Yuki before turning away leaving her for a short while and going after another target, brushing Thunder Train aside and going to work on Jason Freeman for a short while before Thunder Train shoved him aside wanting a round on Freeman. This however was not the response Chris wanted, instead deciding to go after the leviathan Thunder Train granting Freeman a pause allowing him to instead go after Dan and Andrew Starr, interrupting their tussle, as Predator and Kalb were still down.

CRASH
The sound of Thunderkiss being whipped into the steel steps does nothing to quell the brawls going on inside of the ring, as well as draws attention away from the next entrant appearing at the top of the ramp.
Philip: Introducing…VIOLET CYRILLA!
The next surprise entrant comes straight out of left field; Violet makes her way down the ramp but no one pays much attention as now Thunderkiss is down at ringside as Macho finally makes his way into the ring and decides to aid his Mega Star partner who was holding his own with Thunder Train. With the two on one advantage they started to dominate Train, backing him into the corner before unleashing with a flurry of rights as all Thunder Train could do was cover up, finally Chris decided enough was enough, backing away as Macho whipped him across the ring, right into the fist of Chris Phenomenal who connected with a Superman Punch, Thunder Train going down like a sack of potatoes. Violet had entered the ring as all this was going on and broke up the three man battle between Starr, Dan, and Freeman taking Starr as they engaged in a variety of strikes before Starr went to whip Violet into the ropes but was countered, and whipped himself. He came off looking to connect with a clothesline but was ducked and on the second rebound they both had the same idea, taking each others’ heads off with a clothesline as both Dan and Freeman connected with dragon screws after some un impressive brawling. With everyone either down and out or taking a break there are only two men left standing, two men known for a unique viewpoint in the ring. Hollywood and Chris walk over towards the announce table as the time keeper, obviously in on it from the beginning passes them each a microphone as the crowd looks on in awe.
Hollywood: HAAALOOOOOO MEEEEEXXXXXXXXXXXIIIIICCCCOOOOOO CCCCIIITTTTTTYYYYYY[/I]
McNally: Only a year late there, Mach…
Edison: Shut it Max, I’m watching this
Hollywood: Seeing as how no one can keep up with the Mega Stars in this battle royal, we decided it’s time for a little fiesta, so without further ado. I present to you, Chris Phenomenal![/I]
With that Chris takes the microphone as the familiar pulsing beat of “Poker Face” begins as Chris Phenomenal begins to swag to the beat, dancing as atrociously as Gaga herself.
Chris Phenomenal: I wanna hold em' like they do in Texas Plays Fold em' let em' hit me raise it baby stay with me (I love it) Lovegame and intuition play the cards with Spades to start And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart.[/I]
Macho puts his hand on Chris and cuts the music before turning around.
Hollywood: Dude, we’re in Mexico, they don’t speak English and quite frankly, you can’t dance.
Chris Phenomenal: You dissin’ me again Mach?
Hollywood: Yeah I am Brud, here let me show you how it’s done.[/I]
With that the familiar music of “La Bamba” begins to play as Hollywood breaks out in song.

Las Bamba comes to an end, as all the superstars are still down in the ring, taking the moment as a brief reprieve after almost one half hour of gruelling competition. Macho is all smiles but that changes however as Phillip Jones announces the next entrant...
Philip: Introducing…
