Harrys: The following contest is an EurAsian League Match, scheduled for one fall!
Ten Thousand Fists blares out to a brilliant pop as the words SURVIVOR scream out to the crowd, and Rush emerges with a smile on his face as he does his traditional beating of his chest and grabbing of his right forearm with his left hand and raises it above his head in his signature pose before making his way down the ramp.
Harrys: Introducing first, from Windsor, Ontario, Canda, weighing in at 361 pounds, Rush!
Copeland: Rush must not let the pressure of Beckford and Blades wins get to him. He can still be in the running for the EurAsian League, but has to do what Blade failed to do last week, and that was beat Big Dave!
Cohen: To be fair, Blades mind was elsewhere, expecting a switch out of nowhere, but Dave remained focused, like he will be tonight. Rush has no chance if he cant even beat Chris Beckford, let alone Big Dave!
He heads to the front side of the ring and climbs onto the apron and poses as the song screams TEN THOUSAND FISTS IN THE AIR in a strobe of camera flashes. He enters the ring and beats his chest again as we stands in the ring waiting for his opponent, the crowd start building up a Rush! chant as the waiting continues.

The crowd stop chanting in favour of boos at Rushs opponent, who heads out onto the stage wearing his hoodie, only to pull it off of him instantly as he heads down the ramp, taunting Rush to get the match going.
Harrys: His opponent, from London, England, weighing in at 268 pounds, representing the rWo, Big Dave!
Copeland: If the very motivated Big Dave gets the victory here tonight, he will literally have one hand on the title shot. Its up to Rush to make sure that doesnt happen!
Cohen: What do you mean "If"? This is his for the taken, the new age will take out the old school!
Big Dave gets down the ramp and is about to slide in the ring until a fan says something to him, to which he turns and starts trash talking back, while this happens, Rush runs at the ropes and uses full momentum to leap over the top rope and land on top of Dave, to which the crowd cheers ecstatically! Rush slowly gets up and gets his opponent to up on his feet, but Dave snaps out of the grip and hits a few rights before using his shoulder to push Rushs back against the ring apron, holding his back against the pain. Dave then takes Rush to the ring steps and slams Rushs head against the metal. The ref shouts at Dave to get in ring, to which he responds by shoving Rush in and follows suit with the bell finally sounding as Dave goes for a quick cover 1

kickout by Rush.
Dave has a disappointed look on his face as he thought that the steps would be enough, Rush slowly stirs onto his side while checking his head isnt bleeding from the early attack as Dave gets back on his feet and kicks an unsuspecting Rush in the back. Rush tenses up from the pain going down his back as Dave goes for another kick and another until the ref gets him to pull off and he argues at the ref before giving a stomp on Rushs head. Dave then heads to the turnbuckle and looks at Rush who is on one knee before he climbs the turnbuckle, waiting for his opponent to be fully vertical. Only Rush is quick to hit the ropes and Dave loses his balance, landing on his groin and then falling forwards off the turnbuckle to the canvas.
Cohen: DQ him ref! That was a low blow!
Copeland: This match is not going to end like this Cohen, Rush lost his balance
Cohen: Sometimes I find your commentary a little biased there, Seabass!
Rush grabs Daves legs in a slingshot position before he looks at the crowd with an excited look on his face, he starts spinning around in a circle, lifting Dave up in the air, before letting go and dropping his opponent onto the floor, followed by a quick arm raise to the crowd. Dave slowly crawls to the corner, Rush spots this and walks to the other corner, he stands in a leaning position, looking ready to burst out of the corner, he stamps his foot a couple of times before running at Dave and giving a big splash to sandwich him into the corner. Dave staggers over the corner before Rush props him onto the second rope and then hits a Border Toss, slamming Dave with full momentum and goes for a pin, 1

Cohen: He doesnt want a cheap victory like Rush would!

Harrys: Here is your winner, Big Dave!
Copeland: Rush had the match won, but had it not been for the foot on the ropes, it would have been a different story here.
Cohen: Make all the excuses you want Seabass! Fact is, Big Dave once again outsmarted an opponent who thought he had the victory. Sure, Dave might have been fatigued at the end, but he has the win under his belt and edging closer to that title shot at Kingdom Come!
The ref raises Big Daves arm, despite him only just waking up from the knockout, he eventually crawls towards the ropes and edges out of the ring, holding onto his stomach from the earlier splash by Rush. The ref raises his hand once again as Dave leans on his knees, staring back at Rush who is coming too, Dave has an intense look on his face given the match he just had before smiling and heading up the ramp as Rush sits up, talking to the referee about what just happened.
Copeland: Well Ladies and Gentleman, we still got champions in action still to come, with the Tag, EurAsian, World and True World Champions all in action still. First up is Teach N Kurtesy, they will be facing Heavy Artillery, with Round Two of the EurAsian Best of Three after.
Cohen: And a Main Event that only geniuses like Chuck Myles can book, Everest and Ricky get it on again!
Copeland: Champion vs. Champion, it cant get any higher then this, especially when pride is at stake!
