Welcome to Kissimmee, Florida!
EWrestling.Org Presents GRINDER IX!
FTF Championship - BTAC: Riel (c) vs. Obsidian
[The lights fade to black and the fans rise to their feet. A single red spotlight paints the curtain and at that moment it is clear who is about to hit the stage.]
Crowd: Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap) Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap) Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap)
["More Human, Than Human" by White Zombie blares through the PA system.]
Crowd: YEAH!
[Smoke billows out from beneath the curtain as we go to the ring for introductions.]
Stuffher: About to come down the aisle, from TORONTO, ONTARIO: CANADA! He weighed in tonight at a slim, trim, jacked, stacked and ripped 252 lbs. of pure entertainment. he is known by many names. The Martyr of Magnificence, The Canadian WrestleGOD and more often then not CHAMPION. He is the reigning and defending Unrecognized, Unofficial, Self Proclaimed, Undefeated, Undisputed Fuck the Fed Heavyweight Champion of the WORLD! There is only one... "Absoluuute" Lee... Riel!
[The curtain bursts open and stepping out through the smoke and into the bright crimson light is none other than Lee Riel. Cloaked in his black hooded jumpsuit with his head down, he walks with purpose to the ring, slapping the hands of his fans in attendance. Noticeable by its absence is the FTF World Title that Particle Man has been using to terrorize the cameras all night long.]
Crowd: Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap) Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap) Let's Go Lee Riel (Clap... Clap... Clap, Clap, Clap)
[Approaching the ring, a vision of focus, Lee kneels down beside the apron, sweeping the skirt up and sliding his hand under like a high school boy on a date, Lee retrieves two steel folding chairs. The FTF champ flings a chair into the ring, barely missing his opponent who sidesteps the wild weapon as it crashes into the turnbuckle behind him. The second chair comes in a second later, this time a more astute Vance catches the chair.]
Promo: Putting a steel chair into the hands of that man certainly won’t go down as the best decision Lee makes tonight. In fact, most question his decision to show up at all but I guess we’ll find out about that in a moment.
E.D.: Lee Riel en fuego Promo, and Vance has taken too much time off. By the time Obsidian figures out which way is up, Riel is going to be his money in the winners circle.
[The two men stare each other down, a sly smile rips across the face of Obsidian, the chair in his hand, cocked and ready, and he motions with the index finger of his other hand, for Lee to step inside.]
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)
[Lee removes his hooded jacket and pants, ascending the stairs he steps into the center of the ring, he and his former tag partner engaging in a face off of sorts. Lee hands his title belt off to the referee without batting an eye in his direction.]
Promo: Obsidian just handed the chair to Lee.
E.D.: Not only is Obsidian extremely ugly, but he’s stupid to match!
Promo: I’ll make sure he gets that’s message.
E.D.: E.D. don’t care. You tell him what I said. E.D. ain’t scared of any man.
[Vance makes his way to the corner picking up the errant chair from earlier, the sides even. The two men wield their weapons proudly as the crowd roars in approval, their eyes lock and stay steady. The referee comes back to center; he speaks briefly to each man. The flames erupt from the steel contraption surrounding the ring, the crowd’s pitch rising with them. Both men look to either side in opposite directions, taking in the image of the ring of fire surrounding them. Caged in by an inferno the two men turn their eyes to the opposite side and then they fixate on each other once more.]
Promo: I can’t even attempt to explain this feeling.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
[The bell sounds and each man takes a step back, their eyes remaining steady, Obsidian asks for a shot and receives one as Riel blasts him across the head with the chair. Obsidian shows next to no effect from the shot and quickly shoots back with a chair shot of his own. Riel staggers backwards.]
Promo: I’ve seen men trade punches too start matches but chair shots? This is unreal.
E.D.: Both of these egomaniacs are fighting for this match, and not keeping the Grinder in mind, Batee must be going crazy in the back!
[Lee fires back with a fierce shot to the tortured temple of David Vance, sending the big man back a couple steps. The Mile High Monster steps forward two steps and hits a thunderous blow to the picturesque face of the champ, dropping him to a knee. Riel shakes loose the cobwebs and wraps the obliterated metal seat around Obsidian’s head, sending him to a knee of his own.]
Promo: Vance parts the pretty boy hair of Riel with that one.
E.D.: How many times do I have to say it, this match means nothing compared to winning The Grinder and I just don’t understand what these guys are trying to prove!
[Lee staggers back, woozy the chair falls from his hand and he falls forward to his knees. Jacking his chair up high into the air, the monster delivers a concussion causing; crushing blowing that sends blood spewing from Riel’s head as it pours around his fallen body.]
Promo: Blood was promised and it’s been delivered quicker than UPS.
Crowd: BOOOO!
E.D.: Listen to the crowd, they feel E.D.’s pain.
[Obsidian tosses his twisted weapon of mass destruction to the side and with a smile across his face, snatches Riel by the hair and begins to drag him towards the fire.]
Promo: Lee Riel is on his way to hell, his guide, the misguided Mile High Monster with the devil in his ear.
E.D.: The fire is so hot I can feel it from here!
[Not having any of it, not ready to throw in the towel the leg of Riel shoots up from the catching Obsidian square in the face, rocking the big man. As Vance’s hands slip from his hair, Riel gets a second wind, kipping up to his feet; he spins to face his opponent. Vance nods his head in approval as the two men circle, ready to lock horns like two mighty bulls.]
Promo: Riel may be losing blood quicker then the town whore lost her virginity but his heart’s still beating strong.
E.D.: This match will truly be hell on earth for one of these men!
[Riel jacks the jaw of Vance, blocks a shot from Obsidian and jacks his jaw once more sending his ex-brother in law to the ropes and way too close to the fire.]
Promo: I smell burnt back hair and it sure as hell doesn’t smell good.
E.D.: Smells like teen spirit!
[Obsidian charges hard off the ropes hitting a spear on Riel who clutches his ribs. Vance shakes off the pain of the singed hair but not quick enough as Riel is back to his feet and charges hard with a Thesz press followed by punches in bunches. Obsidian tosses him off sending Riel careening toward the flames, Lee scatters quickly hands and feet scampering along the mat to stay away from the fire. Unfocused he walks right into a waiting clothesline from the challenger.]
Promo: If nothing else the flames have served as a severe distraction for both men.
E.D.: A distraction? Look at my shirt, I have pit marks!
[Obsidian lays in a set of quick knees to the jaw and throat, following that up with a big elbow to the chest. Vance scoops Riel up by the hair and looping his arm over his head he picks him up for a high vertical suplex. The blood rushes to the Canadian WrestleGOD’s head, gushing out the gaping wound and dripping down the chest of Obsidian and down onto the canvas below. Riel follows with a huge suplex that shoots the flames through the roof as the crowd gasps. Back on his feet, Obsidian rolls Riel over onto his stomach and sits down with a camel clutch, yanking back on the jaw and neck of the Canuck, Obsidian is firmly in control.]
Promo: David Vance is laying in the punishment on Riel and I’m not sure how much more he can take. If Riel gives up it’s all over, you do not have to be burnt to lose and burning a man does not get you the win, the flames are merely there to inflict pain and help in the process of making a man give up. Riel may be on the verge of that right now.
E.D.: It’s hot as hell out here and I can’t imagine how these guys feel inside the ring. Lee Riel has to feel like the flesh is just melting off his body.
[Afraid to crawl to the ropes and endure fire, Riel attempts to power out of the hold, sliding his knees up towards his chest. Lee pushes himself up onto his hands and knees but Obsidian quickly pounces, leaping into the air and crashing down with all his weight across the back of Riel. Vance follows up with several crossface forearm shots to Riel that leaves him dazed and confused. David pulls Riel up by his hair, locking in a rear waist lock he snaps off a German suplex with authority.]
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)
[Obsidian sneers at the crowd as he slowly walks towards the prone Riel. Vance stares out into the crowd as he snatches Lee by his blood soaked hair once more, Lee hits a shot to the gut on Vance, but he’s quickly met with a clubbing blow to the back of his neck for his troubles. Vance picks him up and hits a scoop slam in the center of the ring. Vance hits the nylon and charging off hard leaps up into the air with a massive leg drop to the throat of Riel.]
Promo: Lee is clutching his throat and gasping for air, that move hurt him and hurt him bad.
E.D.: Ready the barbeque, its Canadian bacon time!
[Lee staggers up to his feet, both of his hands clasping his throat he walks right into a sidewalk slam from the challenger who grabs hold of his hand ands begins to drag him towards the flames. As they reach the ropes Riel grabs the bottom cable with his free hand, using all of his strength to force himself away from the flames as Vance uses all of his to force him into it.]
Fans: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap) Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)
[Vance gives up, stomping Lee’s head. Obsidian follows up by snatching the legs of the champ and turning him over into a Boston crab that sends screams of pain flying from the mouth of Riel.]
Promo: Back to work on the back, Obsidian is dissecting Riel, taking a page from his opponent’s playbook, much the same way Lee tried to brawl with the brawler earlier… only Vance is being successful with his plan for the time being.
E.D.: Lee Riel is a wrestler not an outdoor cook and if the toaster rumours Canadian are true, Riel is completely baffled by flames! He can’t win a match like this!
[Lee attempts to power out, his head shaking up and down from the intensity, blood flying from his face. His arms falter, his face crashes back to the mat and Obsidian torques back even harder. Lee holds the back of his head crying out in agony. He slams his hands to the mat pumping himself up; he reaches out for the ropes, no rope break. He reaches his left hand to the second rope, his right hand raises up to the second rope as his upper body rises off the mat. Climbing the ropes, hand over hand like vertical monkey bars, Lee gets his hand to the top rope and sends Obsidian tumbling forward.]
Promo: Lee is too beaten down to capitalize on the counter.
[Riel slumps against the ropes unable to move, Obsidian has more than enough time to recuperate and get back on the attack with a double axe handle to the back of Riel’s head. Vance follows hooking the arms of Lee and lacing his fingers for a full nelson. He uses the hold to leverage Riel’s face towards the flames, pushing him forward and down, Lee blocks by putting his foot on the middle rope, he pushes off but gets nowhere other then locked in a painful hold in the center of the ring.]
Promo: Lee’s in a painful predicament here but he’s not giving up the fight just yet.
E.D.: The Canadian is showing some heart!
[Lee attempts to slide down through the arms of Obsidian but gets nowhere. He tries to power out as he attempts to spread his arms apart but to no avail. Finally the hold is broken with authority.]
Promo: Full Nelson slam, smack dab in the center of the logo.
E.D.: OOOUCH!
[Obsidian follows with a head butt to the skull of Riel before hoisting the limp and lifeless form of Lee Riel to his feet. Obsidian taunts Riel with a slap to the face; he quickly discards the blood transfer on his hands with the flick of the wrist. He snatches the back of Riel’s head, forces it down as he comes up with a knee lift that snaps back the head of Riel, spitting and blood fly everywhere as Lee once again cripples to the mat. He doesn’t stay there long however as Obsidian quickly picks him up to his feet and throws him to the ropes, bounding off the virtually blinded by blood Lee Riel waltzes right into the waiting arms of Obsidian and his snapped to the mat with a kidney killing spine buster.]
Promo: If Lee doesn’t make a comeback soon I don’t think he’ll be in a position to be brought back to life, much less get the win here tonight.
E.D.: CLEAR!
[Vance picks Riel up and puts him back down just as quickly with a backbreaker. Obsidian rolls Riel to his side and placing his knee into his lower back yanks back on his jaw and legs bending the man in half around his knee.]
Riel: F-F-FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
[The screams of pain raise from Riel once more cueing Obsidian to further the punishment as he quickly hits three knees to the spine in quick succession.]
Promo: Vance is not holding back on his former brother in law. He’s trying to break him in half.
E.D.: My wife did this Pilates thing on me the other day and I almost didn’t make this show. Did you know that if someone pushes you from behind you can actually touch your…
Promo: Too much information!
E.D.: E.D. don’t care.
[Finally Obsidian relinquishes the hold, sensing that Lee won’t be giving up for him just yet. Vance pulls Riel to his feet looping his arm over his head he lifts him for a suplex but Riel counters, floating over in behind Obsidian, Lee stumbles back, still weak from the punishment. Vance’s beating pays off as the time lost from Riel being unable to gain footing allows Obsidian to spin around and catch Lee with a huge shoulder to the midsection as he drives him back, hard, into the corner. He proceeds to ram his shoulder into the midsection, knocking every bit of wind out of Lee, over and over shoving Lee between the rungs.]
Promo: Obsidian lights up Riel with a chop to his blood stained chest.
E.D.: That will leave a mark in the morning.
[Obsidian follows with a knee to the midsection, an elbow too the face and a punch to the temple. The crowd boos sending a cocky grin across the face of Obsidian as he whips Riel out of the corner. Riel reverses sending Obsidian hard to the turnbuckle across the ring. Lee charges hard with all the energy he has left he leaps into the air, looking for a splash, he misses, catching himself on the corner as David Vance dodges the attack. Lee hangs precariously close to the fire and Obsidian aims too put him in it, approaching from behind Vance grabs the back of Riel’s head and begins pushing it down towards the flames. Riel presses in the opposite direction with the little strength that hasn’t been sapped from him.]
Promo: Elbow to the jaw, and another.
E.D.: It’s getting bad in there for Riel!
[Lee breaks the grip of Obsidian and brings himself back into the ring. Vance staggers into a boot to the gut from Lee. Riel loops the arm of Obsidian over his head and snaps off a suplex that sends Obsidian back first into the turnbuckle pads. The crowd pops. Riel hooks the legs of Obsidian to the top turnbuckle leaving him prone in the tree of woe. Kick to the gut, and another and another. Riel is pissed and his boot is now along the jaw of Obsidian as he presses his face towards the flames the crowd erupts. Obsidian fights back with everything he has and Riel relents. With Obsidian still hung up and unable to defend himself Lee backs himself into the corner across the ring, taking a run across the ring and leaping into the air Lee connects with a dropkick too the face of Obsidian, the impact knocking him loose to the ground.]
Promo: Riel is making a comeback and right on cue to spoil the party, here comes Mr. Batee.
Crowd: AAAAAAAAAAASHOLE! AAAAAAAAAASHOLE!
E.D.: I see someone finally told the fans his first name.
[Lee continues his assault placing his knee into the back of a face down Vance and wrenching back on his head. Lee pushes forward moving Obsidian’s face closer to the flames. Batee runs around the ring getting in the face of Riel, taunting him.]
Mr. Batee: You’re nothing son, you’re a never was and a never will be.
[Riel’s face reddens with anger as he releases the hold and lunges towards Batee his arm narrowly missing the flames as he pulls it back in, the heat bringing him back to reality.]
Promo: Batee is getting in Riel’s head and Lee can’t afford to not be focused in this kind of match with a guy like David Vance.
E.D.: I think its safe to say Obsidian has signed his name on the dotted line and is ready to dance with BACW’s devil once again!
[Vance wraps Riel in a rear waist lock and throws Riel with a German suplex. The athletically gifted Canadian however, manages to land on his feet after a back flip and dropkicks Obsidian in the back sending him into the middle rope and inches from the flames.]
Promo: Too close for comfort for Obsidian, Riel catches the startled Mile High Monster with a spinning heel kick.
[Lee spits at Batee, saliva and blood both landing on the white Armani jacket of the BACW owner much to the delight of the fans and the dismay of Batee. The Armani clad arm shoots towards the leg of Riel but is quickly drawn back at the feeling of heat. Lee smiles at the attempt of Batee before happily continuing his offence on Obsidian with a standing moonsault. Up quickly from the move, Lee bounds off the ropes.]
Mr. Batee: NOOOO!!!!!
Promo: Canadian Thunder by the champ and you can feel the air blowing out of the big man’s lungs on that one.
E.D.: Think now would be a bad time to ask Mr. Batee if I’m going to be inducted into the hall of fame?
[Lee pulls Vance up from the mat and rocks him with a forearm shiver to the face, shot after shot after shot sends Obsidian reeling, propelling him backwards into the corner where Lee mounts and begins to reign down punches.]
Crowd: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine…
[Lee pauses for a moment and gets caught as Obsidian lifts him for a powerbomb, stepping out from the turnbuckle, Lee nails Vance with a HUGE right hand.]
Crowd: TEN
Mr. Batee: Come on Obi! Fight damn it! FIGHT!!!!
[Obsidian crashes to the mat with Lee sitting on his chest. Riel continues to reign down blows into the face of his former T3 stable mate.]
Promo: These men are playing each other’s games and getting the job done, who’d have thought Obsidian would be the man with the suplexes and submissions and Riel would be the man throwing all the punches. I guess neither man wanted to do what was expected of them.
E.D.: Both men are laying it all on the line and right now, I’m not sure how Riel is going to be able to compete in the Grinder with the cut in his head.
[Lee stands up from his mounted position and peels Obsidian off the mat with him, Jamming the head between his thighs, Lee lifts Obsidian up and leaping into the air hits a skull-fucking, piledriver that jacks up the neck of the Mile High Monster whose leg begins to quiver. Batee has a concerned look on his face as Riel rips Vance right back up off the mat and continues his assault, looping the arm of Obsidian over his head Lee lifts him vertical, his face covered in blood he drops back with suplex in the middle of the ring.]
Promo: He’s going up top; if he hits this he’ll have no trouble getting Obsidian into the fire.
[Lee perches himself, looks over at Batee to make sure he’s not moving and then leaps from the top with a Highlight of the Night that connects with nothing but canvas. Rolling out of the way and quickly to his feet Obsidian has a chair. He swings for the head of Riel who catches a glimpse out of the corner of his eye and ducks to avoid contact; Obsidian avoid the VanCANADAtor attempt and swings for the legs of Riel. Lee goes up and over sending Obsidian spinning around and into a VanCANADAtor.]
Mr. Batee: DANG IT TO HELL! I got to do something!
Crowd: [BOO!]
Promo: Batee just pulled a ladder from underneath the ring.
E.D.: Batee will not let Obsidian lose and he’s tilting the odds!
[Lee pays no attention ascending the ropes for another attempt at a Highlight of the Night; he comes crashing down as Batee whacks him in the leg with the ladder. Batee slides the ladder in through the top and middle ropes as both men are still down.]
Mr. Batee: [Turning to the booing crowd] WOULD YOU PEOPLE SHUT THE HELL UP!
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap… clap, clap, clap)
Mr. Batee: [Hands over his ears] I’m not listening! La La La La La La La La La
[Obsidian makes it up first and goes for the ladder but Lee isn’t far behind with a back suplex. Lee slowly gets to his feet and heads for the ladder. Batee yanks down on the outside sending the ladder see-sawing into the jaw of Riel. A dazed Riel stumbles from the ladder and right into a T3 Facebuster from Obsidian.]
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOO!
[Obsidian grabs the ladder and pulling it into the ring sets it up to climb.]
Promo: No way, he’s not going up there, this isn’t a ladder match and that man is no cruiserweight.
E.D.: I don’t think Obsidian really cares what kind of match this is Promo.
[Obsidian makes his way to the top of the ladder as a prone Riel lays in the center of the ring, still feeling the effects of the T3 Facebuster. Obsidian leaps from 10 feet in the air.]
Mr. Batee: NOOOO!!!!
Promo: MILE HIGH DROP…MISSES! He Missed! He missed!
E.D.: Moon River!
[Lee rolls out of the way just in the nick of time as Obsidian’s pain shoots up his spine. Both men to their feet and Riel grabs hold of Obsidian by the head throwing him through the metal braces of the ladder and into the turnbuckle behind it. Lee folds the ladder up and places it in front of Obsidian. Riel charges in but gets a face full of metal courtesy of Obsidian who then tosses the ladder out of the ring and to the floor.]
Promo: Well that backfired.
E.D.: I told you he’s Canadian!
[Lee staggers into the waiting arms of Obsidian who hits a black hole slam that sends the flames sky high and the fans into frenzy. Obsidian rains down shots to the busted open skull of the absolute one.]
Crowd: [BOO!]
Batee: [Batee tosses a steel chain into Obsidian who whips the back of Riel with it immediately.] Here boy, take him out for good.
Riel: Fuck!
*Thwap*
Riel: Fuck!
*Thwap*
Riel: Fuck!
[Obsidian picks Riel up off the mat, welts already rising on his back, he wrap the chain around the neck of Riel and drops him with a hangman’s neck breaker. Vance comes up from the mat with a huge smile on his face to a chorus of boos from Riel’s followers. Obsidian snatches Riel up by his now crimson hair and loops the chain around his neck. He stands them back to back his hands gripping the steel links and leans forward hanging Lee Riel off his own back.]
Obsidian: Who’s carrying who on their back now!
Mr. Batee: Ha Ha Ha! That’s it David! Make him pay for his ungrateful words!
Promo: Lee Riel can’t stay like this for long.
E.D.: A normal man would have done 20 minutes ago.
[Riel’s legs flail violently as his hands try to pull the chain loose from his throat with no luck. Riel’s legs move slower and slower until they stop, his arms fall to his sides as a hush falls over the crowd.]
Promo: Lee’s body is limp, he’s not moving.
[Obsidian maintains the metal noose cutting the life from filling Riel’s lungs.]
Promo: YOU’RE KILLING HIM DAMN IT!
E.D.: Riel can’t survive much longer!
[DQ or no DQ the referee finally intervenes getting Riel off the back of Obsidian as he lays motionless on the mat.]
Batee: [Motioning with his hands.] LIGHT HIS ASS ON FIRE!
Crowd: [BOO!!!]
[Obsidian, with the chain still loops around the neck of Riel, begins to drag the dead eight towards the ropes and the fire. Miraculously Lee gets a second wind and snaps too life, he tugs on the chain pulling Obsidian’s face towards him and then drives a hard knee to the bridge of his nose as blood spurts out Obsidian relinquishes the chain.]
Promo: Thank god he’s alive; I thought we had a murder on our hands for a moment.
E.D.: Paul, you still believe in Santa don’t you?
Promo: I like Santa.
[As Obsidian advances Riel rolls back onto the top of his head, cinching his legs around the head of Obsidian and putting himself into a handstand Lee snaps off a modified head-scissors that sends Vance tumbling to the ropes, once again mere inches from the flames. Riel uses the ropes to get to his feet, Obsidian charges; Riel ducks and lifts sending Obsidian up and over the flames and ropes, crashing down onto Batee. Lee slumps to the ground, still gasping for air.]
Promo: There’s a wall of fire separating these men but something tells me, come hell or high water one of them will figure out how to reconvene this fight because it’s far from done.
[Lee stumbles up to his feet and looks down at Batee and Obsidian. A sickening smile cross his face as he thinks bad thoughts. He signals that he’s going up and over.]
Promo: He wants to go up and over? Those flames are unpredictable they could shoot up and scorch him at anytime, this guy is fucking nuts.
E.D.: It’s all or nothing!
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap) Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap)
[As Obsidian staggers to his feet on the outside Lee bounds off the ropes on the opposite side, charging hard Lee goes up and over with a flipping suicide dive as the flames lick at his feet. Riel crashes onto Obsidian and it’s carnage on the outside.]
Crowd: Holy Shit! Holy Shit! Holy Shit!
[Both Obsidian and Riel are prone on the outside but Batee is standing and takes full advantage of his chance to repay Riel for spitting on him as he lays the boots into the Canadian.]
E.D.: Anger? Adrenaline? I’m not sure what it is but Riel is shaking off the boots and getting up to his feet!
[Shaking as Batee blasts him with shots that have no effect. Riel blocks and nails Batee with a shot of his own that sends the godfather of Bad Ass Wrestling reeling as he attempts to flee the scene.]
Promo: Lee needs to back off of Batee because his opponent, the Mile High Monster is searching under the ring for a tool of destruction.
Mr. Batee: Oh my god! Lee! Please baby! You don’t understand!
[Lee continues to assault Batee all over ringside, Batee leans against the rails and rolls to the side after each shot he attempts to flee but can’t quite get away from the stalking madman. Obsidian pulls a wooden chair from beneath the ring.]
Mr. Batee: [Covering up] Show some compassion God dang it!
Promo: What in the hell is he planning on doing with that, these two men obliterated each other with a steel chair and now he thinks one shot, and that’s all he’ll get, one shot will damage Riel.
[Obsidian rises to his feet and sticks the chair into the fire, lighting it aflame as Riel corners Mr. Batee in the guard rail.]
Promo: Well I guess he shut me up.
[Obsidian stalks towards Riel, flaming chair in hand, he comes up from behind and goes to make the blow but Riel moves. Obsidian stops short of a frightened Batee just before pounding the fire into his face. Obsidian turns around and wham!]
Promo: Flaming VanCANADAtor scorches the face of Obsidian and sends kindling all over the place.
Crowd: [YEAH!] Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!
[As the fire wood scatters, Obsidian rolls around holding his singed face and Riel attempts to put out his now flaming foot we get a split screen from the back. There stands Universe Man and Particle Man in full super hero regalia and they’re standing next to the controls of the machine that is creating the wall of flames.]
Promo: What the hell are those yahoos doing?
E.D.: Those two boys have issues.
[The two men stare down at the controls of the combustion contraption.]
Particle Man: This menacing machine of masochism could conceivably create a mighty massive mess should it be used to burn a man's flesh.
Universe Man: What we do boss?
Particle Man: I have a plan my massive man friend.
[Back to live action Riel finally makes it to his feet only to get caught with a low blow from Mr. Batee. Batee clears off the announce table.]
Promo: HEY!
Mr. Batee: Shut up you puissant before I bitch slap you son.
E.D.: Tell him Batee!
[Batee pulls Riel up onto the table with him and jamming his head between his thighs he’s looking for a piledriver but Riel reverses with a back body drop.]
Promo: Chair shot by Obsidian.
[Riel crumples onto the table as Batee lies prone on the small mats, Obsidian makes his way onto the announce table and drives Riel straight to hell with a T3 face buster.]
Promo: Look at the carnage, this match is one car crash after another. These two men are destroying each other and everything around them in the process.
E.D.: Normally I would care about Batee but since I already got paid, I know it sounds cliché but let the bodies hit the floor!
[Obsidian slowly makes his way to his feet and snatches Riel up by the scruff of his neck. With a sick look on his face he drags Riel towards the flames and with a pale smile on his face he attempts to set Lee’s face on fire when the fire goes out, a confused Obsidian is caught with a hot shot across the steel contraption.]
Crowd: OH!
Promo: The crowd is confused but it looks to me like Particle Man’s plan has come to fruition. I don’t know where that leaves us for a match however.
E.D.: What happened?
[Out of nowhere Obsidian hits Riel with a belly to belly suplex onto the short mats as the referee confers with Michael Stuffher.]
Stuffher: Ladies and gentlemen due to the malfunctioning equipment the referee has decided that this match will be fought under one fall to a finish rules, No DQ, No Count-out, the first man to get a 3 count or make his opponent tap out will be the winner.
Crowd: [BOO!!!]
[Hearing the announcement Obsidian quickly tosses Riel into the ring and follows, Riel staggers too his feet and with blood blurring his vision swings wildly but misses each and every shot, boot to the gut.]
Promo: T3! T3! T3!
[Obsidian makes the cover and the ref makes the count.]
One…
Two…
Thre-
[The crowd erupts as Riel kicks out at the very last second. Obsidian grabs the referee by the collar and shakes him violently. Riel with the roll up.]
One…
Two…
[Obsidian kicks out and as both men reach their feet Obsidian floors Riel with a Yakuza kick. David Vance bails from the ring and loads a table into the ring. Vance slides back into the ring and as Lee gets to his feet he is met with a football punt to the jaw that lays him out again.]
Promo: Obsidian is setting up a table and this can’t be good for Lee Riel!
[Vance drags Riel over towards the table and picks him up for a powerbomb but Riel floats over and rolls through into a pin.]
One…
Two…
[Obsidian rolls out and hooking the legs drives forward with a pin of his own.]
One…
Two…
[Riel reverses forcing Obsidian back to his back for a pin.]
One…
Two…
[Obsidian sits forward sitting on Riel’s chest with his legs hooked.]
One…
Two…
[Riel kicks out.]
Promo: I can’t believe they’re chain wrestling after all the brutality of earlier.
E.D.: I feel like I’m playing xBox for the first time! I’m nauseous!
[Obsidian with a double leg take down and a jackknife pin.]

E.D.: This is awesome!
Promo: You’re damn right it is!
[Both men make their way to their feet and look at each other in awe of what they’re doing. They look out to the fans and then Obsidian charges at Riel as the two men are set to collide again. Riel uses his brains, dropping down and delivering a drop toe hold that he quickly transitions into an STF as he wrenches back on the neck of Obsidian.]
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap) Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap)
[Reaching out lucky Dave Vance finds himself a gift, his discarded steel chain. Obsidian picks it up in his hand and with a satanic prayer flicks it backwards and connects with the skull of Lee Riel, breaking the hold and giving control of the match back to Obsidian. Vance grabs a hold of Riel and jacks him up dropping him with a brain buster.]
Promo: Could that be a message to Besolve? Is Obsidian sending a message to the man that says he wants him in the ring?
[Obsidian scales the ropes and comes off with his Mile High Drop, landing across the throat of Lee Riel. He makes the cover.]
One…

Thre-
[Riel kicks out. Obsidian begins to throttle Lee Riel around the throat. He breaks long enough to grab the chain and choke Riel with the chain. Riel flips Obsidian off, over his head and flips over on top of him. With a chain choking the air from his lungs Riel throws elbows to the jaw of Obsidian in succession to break the hold. Lee grabs the chain and wraps it around the throat of Obsidian and throttles him with it. Lee gets to his feet and returns the favour from earlier whipping Obsidian across the chest with the chain.]
Promo: Payback’s a bitch.
[Riel climbs to the top rope but is quickly cut off by Obsidian who cuts his legs from under him sending Lee crotch first to the top turnbuckle. Obsidian ascends the turnbuckle, pulling Lee up with him, Obsidian jumps off nailing a top rope T3!]
Crowd: OOOH!

Thre-
Promo: RIEL KICKED OUT!
[Obsidian decks the referee for what he deems to be a flawed call. As Obsidian turns back around he is met with a hurricanrana by Riel. Riel follows with a drop kick and as he goes for another he gets caught by Obsidian. Vance catapults Riel sending him up and over the turnbuckle, his head cracking on the corner post as he collapses to the mat. Obsidian makes the cover.]
Promo: There’s no one to make the count, Obsidian punched him in the mouth and I bet he’s regretting it now as it looks like Lee is out.
[Batee gets to his feet finally and seeing that there is no referee waves for another to come out. From the back a referee rushes to the ring as Batee drags out the original official. The sub slides in for the count.]

Mr. Batee: Lower that damn cage! Lower it now!
[Batee motions for the Grinder cage to come down as Obsidian hits a dragon suplex with a bridge.]
One…

[Riel kicks out. As the cage lowers into place earlier than expected, the wall of flames replaced by walls of steel. Obsidian grabs a hold of Riel and runs him across the ring towards the cage but Riel reverses sending Obsidian face first into the mesh and busting him open. Riel picks Obsidian up from the mat and sends him into the cage, he bounces him off the other side and another side and the final side, and taking him from coast to coast s Obsidian falls to his knees. Riel hits the ropes and nails a basement dropkick to the face of David Vance.]
Promo: These two men have used fire and wood, chairs and ladders and chains. Now they’re using a cage and there’s still the table set up in the ring.
[Speaking of the table Riel places Obsidian across the table, gives him a couple shots to the temple then climbs to the top rope. Looking for the pay off, he leaps into the air and crashes down through busted bones and a broken table with the Highlight of the Night. Lee lays motionless on top of Obsidian, clutching his ribs.]
One…
Two…
Thre-
Mr. Batee: GET ON YOUR FEEEET!!!!
Promo: Obsidian kicked out! He kicked out! What the hell will these two have to do to beat the other? What are they going to do?
E.D.: I’m exhausted! You can call the rest of this match. I knew I should have stopped sniffing glue last month.
[Lee pulls Obsidian out of the wreckage of twisted steel and wood. Lee winds up for a punch but it’s blocked by Obsidian who nails a shot of his own. He lifts Riel up onto his shoulder and throws him like a javelin into the cage. On rubber legs Riel walks into an inverted atomic drop, spinning around in pain he gets scooped up and nails with a non inverted atomic drop. Obsidian loops his arm around the throat of Riel, picking him up he hits a fall front slam.]
Promo: Where the hell is he going?
[Obsidian begins to scale the cage, climbing to the tip top of the chain linked den of hell, Vance braces himself with the cables that held it up in the rafters and then launches himself off the top of the cage and crashes down with the Mile High Drop that sends Riel into convulsions.]
Promo: Shaking off the spinal shock Obsidian makes the cover.

[Riel kicks out again and these two just won’t quit. Obsidian whips Riel to the ropes, Lee bounds back, Obsidian goes for a spine buster but is caught with a DDT instead. Lee picks Vance up off the mat and loops his arm around the throat of Obsidian and squeezes his wind pipe with a Dragon Sleeper.]
Promo: I guess Riel is thinking if he can’t knock him out, he’ll make him pass out.
E.D.: I’m already light headed!
[Obsidian is fading as the referee checks his arm. He lifts it and it drops.]
Crowd: One!
[He lifts it again and it drops again.]
Crowd: Two!
[The referee lifts it for a third time but this time it doesn’t fall. Obsidian grabs the hair of Riel and forces him up but Riel drops him with a succession of three modified backbreakers followed by a falling reverse DDT. Lee’s pointing to the top of the cage.]
Crowd: Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap) Let’s Go Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap)
[Lee ascends the cage with the agility of a cat. He pauses for a moment making sure he is perfectly balanced and taking in what he’s about to do.]
Promo: This is how Riel won the Grinder this time last year, if he hits this it has to be over. But as we all know Lee Riel is prone to miss so let’s see what happens. Here he comes… HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT!
Crowd: YEAH!
One…
Two…
Thre-
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOH!
Promo: HE KICKED OUT! HOLY MOTHER OF GOD HE KICKED OUT!
E.D.: [Collapses under the desk.]
[Lee bows up in frustration; wiping the crimson mask from his face he flicks the blood from his hands. Batee is on the outside having a heart attack as he clutches his chest at the close call. Lee gets up to his feet and begins to scale the cage again.]
Mr. Batee: [Staggering] Oh Ester, I’m coming to join ya! I got to do something.
Crowd: [BOO!!!]
Promo: Batee is climbing up after him.
[Riel stands just steps from the top as Batee makes it up to meet him. Riel nails Batee with a right hand that sends Batee flailing off the side of the cage. Riel nails a second punch and the other hand of Batee let’s loose of the cage as he falls off to the floor. Lee makes it to the top to perch for another Highlight of the Night. But Batee bought Obsidian enough time and David Vance just tripped up Riel as he falls forward sternum landing across the top of the cage. Riel hangs desperately over the top of a 20 foot high cage dangling above the concrete floor below. Obsidian climbs up to the same level as Riel as Lee scrambles his way up to the top as well. The two men, each with a hand on the cable begin to trade blows.]
Crowd: OOOOOH!
Promo: This is downright dangerous.
[Obsidian connects and Lee dangles out over the floor. Riel returns the blow and Obsidian flails out over the ring. Obsidian with a shot, Riel with a shot. Obsidian with a boot to the gut of Riel. He hooks him for a suplex. Riel grabs the cable and regains his foot. Riel attempts to suplex Obsidian to the floor but Vance blocks with the use of the cable. Riel’s foot slips and he goes down. Both men hang precariously barely balancing on the top of the cage. Obsidian pulls Riel to his feet, lifting Riel…]
Promo: SUPERPLEX!
*Crash*
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
[The two men crash onto the canvas as the referee bounces off the mat from the impact. The referee approaches the cover in the center of the ring with a look of horror on his face. He gets down and begins to count.]
One…
Two…
Three!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
[The bell sounds as the crowd sits silently not believing who has won the match. The referee demands the cage be raised and calls for paramedics to come to the ring. With gurneys on the way down the aisle the referee talks to Stuffher about the decision.]
Promo: They were tangled in a mass of human flesh and I can’t see who was covering who! I have no idea who has won the match but I know that it was one hell of a brawl and pin fall aside both of these men should be proud of their performance.
Stuffher: Ladies and gentlemen the winner of the match… And NEW North American Heavyweight Champion… “The Mile High Monster” David “Obsidian” VANCE!
Crowd: [BOO!!!]
[Mr. Batee grabs the belt from the timekeeper and enters the ring as Obsidian emerges from the cage battered and beaten. Handing him the belt, Vacne limps out with his title belt being helped to the back by Mr. Batee. As Lee Riel is pulled from the canvas by paramedics, they cautiously strap him to a board as the fans sit silently in fear.]
Promo: Lee Riel looks to be hurt and hurt bad.
[The paramedics load Riel onto the stretcher and begin to wheel him out.]
Crowd: Thank You Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap) Thank You Lee Riel! (Clap…clap…clap, clap, clap)
[Halfway down the aisle Lee raises his hand in a sign of his well being as the tearful crowd rises to their feet with a standing ovation. Whispering to the medics to stop half way up the isle, the belts holding him to the stretcher are undone.]
Crowd: Riel! Riel! Riel!
Promo: Lee Rie is getting up, I don’t believe it and folks, he will not go out that way! Barely able to stand! Barely able to breath, David Vance might be our new NAWA champion, but Lee Riel has stolen the show! We have to go into the back, where Mr. Batee is demanding our presence as he gets set to talk to Obsidian. We’ll see you in the few.
[Flashing into the back as the chants of “Thank you Lee Riel” fades, we see Obsidian removing the tape from his wrists. Standing over him, a smiling Mr. Batee gloats.]
Mr. Batee: Mile High drop from the top! Two T3 Terminations! Cages! Ladders! Fire! Chairs! You were epic! You were Grande! You were larger than life David! …. And the best part is you are now my new poster child for extreme.
Vance: [Ignoring Mr. Batee’s presence]
Mr. Batee: [Hand on hips] What’s wrong David? You’re the man!
Vance: [Without looking] Batee, people like you remind me of fools gold. When you see them you get excited. When you touch them you get chills. But then someone who knows something comes ago and tells you the thing you most valued is a worthless piece of shit.
Mr. Batee: Well I am a fool for gold because gold makes you rich and if you’re rich you have power and if you have power you have…
Vance: [Annoyed] Hey Mr. Caffeine… Slow down! Fucking giving me a headache!
Mr. Batee: [Looking up at the monster of a man] Now David, you best take the bass out of your voice before I start to think you don’t appreciate me. This is the deal David, BACW is back in the National Wrestling Alliance. The final frontier for a guy like you! You dominated BACW! You took apart Primetime Central! The name Obsidian is only one alliance championship away from solidifying a legacy even grander than Darrel Besolve’s. David, I have brought you to the promise land as we discussed please don’t tell me you still harbour ill will from the Black Knight deal.
Vance: I wouldn’t waste good piss on the Black Knights! But this whole business is a fucking joke, just like you and all your promises. So what now, I sign with BACW and in a year I’m NeWA World Heavyweight champion. Then what Batee? Bragging rights, a death match with Mike Cavenaugh, a new promotion for you within NeWA’s staff? I did this Grinder gig for the fans, not for you.
Mr. Batee: David I understand how you feel but you are in the verge of doing something no one has ever done. PTC, WeWA, BACW, NAWA, eWerstling.Org and soon to be NeWA Heavyweight champion. My pull, your brawn, David, if not for me, then do it for the people in BACW. Do it for the guys you supposedly want to help. Sign this contract and join me one more time. Sign your name on BACW’s dotted line, and dance with the devil one more time. David, you know I can do this for you, the question is… Are you willing to trust me one more time?
Vance: [Snatching up the contract] I’m going to wrestle again Batee but there’s a new place up in Canada I need to look at called CASW. They have already tendered me an offer and it didn’t read like a “BACW AJ Styles” contract. So I’m going to be in Canada on the 14th this month, and I want you to come. At the beginning of the show, I’ll give you my answer to both you and CASW. Now if you don’t mind, I need some time.
Mr. Batee: [Back up with a cautious gaze] Of course David, just remember who helped you tonight with that shiny title that’s around your waist. Remember who has the power around here. Now my presence in the ring is needed so I can announce this year’s hall of fame inductee. Clean ya self up David and read over the contract I have gave ya.
[With on hand on the door knob.]
Mr. Batee: And David… I only have but one request should you make the wrong decision on April 14th… and that’s you… Enjoy the…
[Slamming his door on Mr. Batee’s face.]
Vance: I hate that fucking catch phrase!
