Anderson: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first...
Anderson: Hailing from Neo, Japan weighing in at 115 pounds....Batti!
The crowds cheer as Batti runs from one corner of the ramp to the next, raising her fists. A confetti explosion is triggered each time she does this. She then runs and slides into the ring. Her attention is on the fans as she gives them a smile and rests her back against a turnbuckle post.
Cohen: You heard what Anderson said Cat, one hundred and fifteen pounds. One hundred...
Connor: That's one hundred and fifteen pounds of energetic superstar Jack. She has shown us what she can do in that very ring, she can reach down and do superhuman acts that seem nearly impossible.
Cohen: But this is entirely different, I'm really looking forward to seeing how she can deal with such a massive size difference here tonight! Jabari just might knock her out with a slap, the sheer force of one of his strikes could down an elephant!
Connor: Well since Lethal Lottery, Batti has been tangled in a personal feud with King Mussel, you have to believe that will play on her mind as well as recent events with Tyrone Blades, she really does look like she has lost a little bit of enthusiasm, I hope she doesn't lose her concentration, she is really going to need it against this giant.
Cohen: How do you prepare yourself to fight a human tree Cat? There's just nothing you can do to prepare, and with her size she has to be absolutely crazy to be taking this match so close to Kingdom Come!
Anderson: And her opponent....
Anderson: Weighing in at an astounding 485 pounds and standing tall at 7 foot 3 inches tall, from Daura, Nigeria. The Nigerian Giant, Jabari Kasem!
The fans stand and take out their cell phones, getting ready to take their personal videos and pictures of the giant. Several moments go by, Jabari's entrance music has nearly run the full length, Anderson shrugs and Batti is talking to referee Akiyama. He climbs out of the ring and starts talking to people in the timekeepers area.
Connor: We apologize to the fans at home, ladies and gentlemen we're not even sure if there is going to be a match here tonight, Jabari seems to be missing!
Cohen: He probably got lost finding his way out of the dressing room!
Connor:(Listening to her earpiece)
I just got word we have a camera out back, lets take you to that feed now.
The camera is shaky and trying to catch up to a man wearing what looks like a padded football uniform, he's yelling instructions and heading for the exit, he kicks the door open to the parking lot outside, two handlers are trying to stop Jabari from heading towards the street. Jabari points and nods at a WZCW billboard in the distance. His handlers are talking and trying to convince him to head in the opposite direction back towards the entrance. Jabari finally turns around but knocks into the camera ending the feed.
Cohen: Ha ha! I told you Cat! He made a wrong turn coming out of the locker room! We could be here all night waiting for Jabari to make it to the ring!
Connor: Well, this is just a bit of bad luck ladies and gentlemen, you saw the feed from out back, Jabari is having some difficulty making it to the ring here tonight.
The fans react with a mixture of cheers and awe!
Cohen: Look at this Cat, he's coming out of the service entrance! What is he carrying? Looks like some kind of protective gear!
Jabari walks from behind the fireworks booth and into the darkness again near a walled area of the crowds, he enters the light again and climbs on the ramp, he smells the white protective gear then makes a face, he drops it on the ramp and walks the rest of the way to the ring. Jabari takes a step and grabs the top ropes to pull himself to a standing position on the apron, he then easily takes a step over the top ropes.
Cohen: Jabari ATE one of his handlers Cat!
Connor: Will you stop!
Referee Akiyama quickly checks Jabari for illegal objects, the giant looks at him confused. Jabari grabs Akiyama and starts searching him as well. A frustrated ref quickly signals for the bell.
DING! DING! DING!
Batti stomps across the ring and stands bravely right in front of Jabari, the crowds roar in laughter at the size difference! Batti's head is barely over Jabari's belly button as she looks up! Batti looks left and right then gently grabs Jabari's hands, she holds them up so his open palms are facing her. The giant looks on completely confused, Batti starts saying "Patty cake..." as she claps her hands on his and then claps her hands. She tells him to do it. Jabari slowly claps his hands together, he seems pleased by this. Batti giggles loudly then claps her hands together and holds her hands up, Jabari mimics her and holds his palms up, she claps his hands again then claps her hands and yells "Patty CAKE!" Jabari looks really happy now! "Now YOU do it!" Jabari mumbles something then claps his hands together, Batti holds up her palms, giggling and her eyes wild with anticipation, Jabari SLAMS his palms into hers and she goes flying backwards across the ring! She does a back roll and falls right out of the ring!
Connor: Well! Jabari needs to learn a thing or two about Patty Cake!
Cohen: Give the guy some credit! I bet it was his first ever game of Patty Cake! That could be his new special move, the Patty Cake Slap!
Batti rolls back in the ring, a far more concerned expression on her face. Akiyama tells her to get going. She blows a raspberry at him and cautiously approaches the giant again. Jabari holds out his fists this time, ready to box with the much smaller wrestler. Batti holds up her fists and does some head fakes, she throws a few shadow jabs then starts dancing around the giant, his eyes are wide as he doesn't understand what's going on. Batti gives the giant a jab right on the nose then grabs him in a bear hug! Her hands barely reach his back as she squeezes with all her might. The fans are yelling in concern and laughter as Jabari seems angered by the attack, he's looking down at her now with a tilted, curious expression. Jabari easily swats her arms away then drives his huge palm into her stomach with a stomach claw hold! Batti screams in pain, Jabari applies more pressure then easily lifts her off of her feet and holds her in the air in front of him, still clutching the stomach claw! Akiyama is in Batti's face, asking her is she's ready to quit. Batti scream no then gives Jabari's wrist a double axe handle, breaking the hold. She lands on her feet, she grabs Jabari attempting a belly to belly suplex but the giant doesn't budge, he grabs Batti's hair and lifts her up over his head with one hand! Jabari starts swinging Batti around like he's playing with a belt, around and around in a circle over his head, he lets go and Batti flys over the top ropes and lands on the ramp, she rolls to a stop half way up towards the titantron!
Connor: Oh my god! That was just downright disturbing! Jabari just whipped her around over his head like she was a wet towel! I've never seen such a mismatch in power in my life!
Cohen: Jabari is going to crush Batti, Cat! I said it earlier, this is going to be like putting one of those Smart Cars in a car crusher!
The crowds cheer as Batti makes it to her feet, she rubs her scalp and slides back in the ring. She seems furious at being rag dolled as she's yelling up at Jabari. The giant holds up his fist and makes a slow run at her, Batti dodges then gives him an axe kick in the hip, he rubs his hand on the area and bounces off of the ropes for another running attack, Batti uses her speed and dodges again, she kicks Jabari in the back of the knee on the way by, he wobbles for a second and rubs the back of his knee. Jabari throws a very slow chop at Batti that she dodges easily and kicks him in the thigh, then kicks him again in the shin, she punches his other thigh then kicks him right on the knee, Jabari has a pained look on his face as he staggers back on the ropes, Batti runs and dropkicks Jabari right in the stomach, he wheezes, she runs off of the ropes, she runs fast at Jabari and leaps but the giant lifts his boot and catches her right on the chest, she stops in mid air and goes flying in the opposite direction, she lands on her back with a thud in the middle of the ring. Jabari takes this time to catch his breath.
Connor: A very high impact boot by the giant caught Batti in mid flight, stopping her momentum!
Cohen: Batti was smart to use her speed and to try and chop this man down by attacking the legs, but that boot was like getting hit by a truck! This could be it for Batti!
Batti tries to sit up but Jabari steps on her hair. She screams and starts punching his leg but he just looks down at her. Akiyama is warning him to let her hair go but he won't listen. The ref is warning him about a DQ but the giant just stares at Batti. Jabari lifts his foot releasing her hair, she breathes a sigh of relief as she holds her scalp, but he stomps her stomach viciously. Over and over again. Jabari continues to stomp Batti until she doesn't move on the canvas. He runs off of the ropes, he jumps but Batti just barely rolls out of the way of a big splash! Jabari lays on his face motionless as Batti takes this time to recover from the stomps. She tries to roll him over for a pin but he won't move. She collapses again, holding her stomach. Jabari raises up to his knees, Batti gets to her feet, Jabari is nearly as tall as her on his knees, he grabs her in a neck pinch hold! She can't move as he squeezes, he slowly climbs to his feet with the hold applied, now towering over her, he releases the hold then claps his huge arms around her for a bearhug!
Ohhhhhh!!!!!
Connor: Oh my god no! Stop the match! He'll snap her like a twig!
Batti slips out of his grasp straight down and does the splits, she does a double punch at both of his knees, she does a kip up as Jabari bends over in pain, she starts giving the giant uppercuts and lefts and rights to the head, over and over again, Jabari swings a punch that Batti dodges, she kicks him in the thigh and delivers a jumping punch to his jaw, Jabari staggers back. The crowds start building a cheer as the tiny superstar starts unloading on the giant over and over with rights and lefts, staggering him back towards the ropes more and more, left, right, left, right, left, right, right, right, right, right....Jabari staggers back to the ropes! Batti runs off of the ropes, she runs at Jabari and jumps, clothesline! Jabari leans back but his feet don't even leave the canvas! Batti takes a breath, she runs off of the ropes again...clothesline! Jabari leans back, one of his feet leave the canvas for a second then back down!
BAT-TI! BAT-TI! BAT-TI!
Cohen: This is crazy! No way is she gonna knock him over!
Batti runs off of the ropes again...clothesline! Jabari leans way back!! But he lands on his feet again! Batti runs off of the ropes, she does a hand over hand then jumps with an insane clothesline! Jabari topples over the top ropes and lands with a crash on the padded mats!!
CHEEEER!!!!!!
Connor: She did it! She NAILED the giant right over the top ropes!!
Cohen: I can't believe it!
Batti falls to the mat exhausted as Akiyama makes his count.
1....2.....3...
Jabari pulls himself up to his feet using the apron. He wipes sweat off of his face causing his war paint to smear and make a mess. He staggers and half sits on the commentary table.
4....5.....
The giant notices the Batti fans cheering loudly, he makes an attempt to grab one of the fans, but the teen boy escapes terrified and throws his sign as he runs through the crowd. Jabari doesn't show interest in the sign as he reaches over the barricade and picks something up off of the concrete.
6....7...Come on Jabari, get back in the ring...
Jabari is dumbfounded at the cellphone in his hand. He's looking at it closely. One of his handlers comes by and starts shouting at him, he takes the cellphone out of his hand and points at the ring. The giant is furious, he hits the handler with
Bumaye! The devastating Kesagiri Chop sends the handler flying over the barricade and the cellphone flying in the air, it lands back in Jabari's palm. He stares at it again, in pure joy and wonderment.
8....9...10!
DING ! DING ! DING!
Anderson: The winner of this match, by count out Batti!
The fans cheer as Batti celebrates on the top turnbuckle.
Connor: Batti with a big win here over the massive giant, the mismatch in size didn't matter Jack, she still found a way to win like a true superstar would!
Cohen: I'm still in shock that she managed to nail the giant monster over the top ropes to the outside of the ring, what a hand over hand clothesline! Look at him! He's still in wonderland looking at that cellphone!
Batti celebrates up the ramp as Jabari starts touching the cellphone screen cautiously, like the movements on the screen might cut his hand.
===================
We cut backstage where Matt Tastic is pacing around in a towel as various women and some men cover their faces. Even though he's not really exposing anything.
Matt: Mikey!! Mikey, where the hell are you?!
Matt approaches various people and asks.
Matt: Have you seen Mikey? No? Dammit. Hey, how about you? Have you seen him? Why are you covering your eyes? No? Dammit.
Matt runs into Elite Openweight Champion Callie Clark who quickly covers her eyes. Matt seems uneasy to ask her given past history but he asks anyway.
Matt: Clark. Have you seen Mikey anywhere?
Clark: Put some pants on you perv.
Matt: Sorry. I am in a rush. Please, if you've seen him, tell me.
Clark: Why should I help you? *sigh* Fine. I saw him, shocker, in the catering area. Now get out of my face, perv.
Matt leaves but turns back around.
Matt: I should put pants on.
Clark: I do not want to know why he's looking for Stormrage with no pants on.
===================
After the commercial break, Eve Taylor is in the ring She holds a microphone in one hand and the World Heavyweight championship in the other. She takes a couple of seconds to compose herself before she looks to speak. Eve seems to have a regretful look on her face, not wanting to look into the camera or at the crowd.
Connor: Sounds like the champ has something she wants to get off her chest. By the look on her face, it sounds something is conflicting her.
Cohen: Whatever it is, I hope she has the appropriate time to speak her piece and a respectful crowd to listen to her. She's going in at Kingdom Come as the World champion in the main event; she can't have anything that mentally affects her for the upcoming match.
Connor: I hope she is looking to apologise and admit the fault of what she has done to Tyrone Blades and Batti. It is the only thing this could be about.
Eve begins pacing around the ring as she raises the microphone to her lips.
Taylor: I have something that I need to say before Kingdom Come. It is something that has been weighing on my mind for the last couple of weeks and I need to share the truth with everyone.
She pauses for a moment.
Taylor: As the World Heavyweight champion who represents the kind of competition that is showcased here in WZCW but also as a role model and the main image of this great company, I feel it is necessary for me to be completely honest and forthright with everyone here, everyone in the back and the people who run this place. If I do not have these qualities then I am not a true champion and a competitor who does not deserve to hold this prestigious title.
Eve looks down at the title as some fans applaud the statement.
Taylor: A few weeks ago you saw my face on television in a different setting, I showcased security footage that saw the challenger to my title Tyrone Blades entering with me inside a motel room and exiting a few hours later. This was done in an effort to prove to Batti, who is Tyrone Blades' partner, that Blades himself was nothing more than a sick, disgusting human being who does not deserve to be challenging for this championship. However, this act has done nothing but cause controversy, tormented the feelings and emotions of everyone who is involved and incited most of you, the WZCW fans, to see me as an awful, depraved person. Tonight, I wish to be honest and clear the air, so if you'll be so kind to give me the platform to explain myself, I'd very much appreciate it.
The crowd mutters to themselves but ultimately, they give Eve the platform and allow her to discuss it as they remain silent.
Taylor: I should not have done what I did. It was a mistake that has caused relationships to crumble and I wish I could take it back. Sincerely, I apologise for my actions.
Eve cannot continue for the moment and takes a few seconds to recollect herself as the crowd begins to clap for the apology.
Connor: Even though I wanted this to happen, I wasn't expecting her to actually apologise.
Cohen: She explained why she needed to apologise. She treasures that title more than anything and if she didn't do this tonight, she couldn't be World champion. It's rather classy, I'd say.
Taylor: I'm sorry.
It looks as if tears begin welling up in Eve's eyes. The crowd's applause gets louder... but as the camera zooms in on her face, the sorrowful eyes disappear and a straight face appears.
Taylor: I am sorry I shared that very private information with everyone. I am sorry that I put myself in a position that would expose me to the hatred and the vitriol of everyone online calling me a **** and a ****e. I am sorry that I showed everyone a very intimate moment that occurred between two consenting adults who just wanted to have a little fun for one night before they begin competing in a big main event match.
The crowd is shocked and begins booing these statements.
Connor: Too good to be true. We were bamboozled.
Cohen: Quiet, Seabass. Eve is pouring her heart out here.
Taylor: I am sorry this wasn't kept a private matter between Batti, Tyrone and myself... but now that it is known and out there, I feel there is an obligation to clear up exactly what happened the night Tyrone Blades visited my room.
Eve smirks.
Taylor: Tyrone and I met in a bar. I asked him to meet me and Tyrone Blades agreed. He wanted to come see me and have a few drinks, away from his partner Batti because he needed some "time away" from her. So, he found comfort in me. And let me tell you, he was all over me. Tyrone Blades could not keep his hands off me. It's amazing what a few drinks can do to an unfaithful and chaotic man like Tyrone, huh? We slow danced on the dance floor. We dirty danced on the dance floor. There was a couple of times where I sneaked in a few kisses... and he wanted more. It was at that point that he didn't want Batti any more. He wanted me.
Eve is smirking and laughing at what happened. The crowd is booing her heavily at this.
Taylor: Knowing how easily it was to wrap Tyrone around my finger, I led him to my motel room and that's when the real fun began. The things that he did to me that night and the throws of passion we had with each other was like pure ecstasy. No matter how much we threw at each other, Tyrone just wanted more and more... especially when I started...
Eve brings out her tongue and puts her fingers to her mouth to give a visual demonstration, however...
[YOUTUBE]M8-vje-bq9c[/YOUTUBE]
... it is interrupted as Batti returns,charging down the ramp and slides into the ring. Eve Taylor tries to react but Batti delivers a massive takedown spear, beginning to pummel the life out of Eve. Batti is relentless in her assault and completely dominates Eve in the center of the ring. Eve has no chance to react and can only cover up as Batti strikes blow after blow after blow. The crowd is cheering loudly to this assault.
Cohen: Where the hell is security!? She is not supposed to be out here.
Connor: And Eve isn't supposed to be acting like this. What a vile and disgusting person she is to even have the hide to describe it to the viewers. There are children watching this program!
In a raged fury, Batti takes off her boot and looks to deliver the So Kawaii Kick to Eve Taylor. As Eve stumbles to her feet and Batti sizes her up, Mussel is seen sliding in the ring and jumps Batti from behind. Eve quickly exits the ring and recovers as Flex stands over Batti, beating her down. The crowd boos as King Mussel picks up and looks to destroy her with the Mussel Bomb.
Connor: Why is he out here? Are Eve and Mussel in cohoots?
Cohen: Could this be a reunion?! It could be the return of Cerberus!
As Mussel goes to pick up Batti for the Bomb, we see a masked figure enter the ring with a baseball bat. Mussel, seeing this person enter the ring, drops Batti and quickly runs out of the ring. This masked man, who appears with the Hollowed One mask, scares Mussel off. The masked man pulls off the mask to reveal the second member of the Hollowed Ones and good friend to Tyrone Blades, Mr Jones.
Cohen: Jones? Why is he here?
Connor: The more important question is where is Tyrone Blades?
Jones goes over to Batti and makes sure she is okay, grabbing the microphone that Eve dropped in the ring. Batti is still extremely pissed and wants to find Eve but Jones stops her.
Jones: Batti, Batti, Batti... hold up, homie. It's me, Jones. Look, I know I ain't the person y'all wan' to be seein' right now but I need to fix this shit. Whatever Eve be pullin' on you is a hoax, Batti. My boy Tyrone would never do this shit to anyone, especially to you. He loves you, Batti. I ain't never seen him love anyone as much as he loves you. That boy loves you more than he loves me and I'm his best friend. There ain't nothing Tyrone won't do for you and there ain't nothing Tyrone did with that ho, Eve. Tyrone did nothing wrong, Batti. He would never hurt you. Ever. I swear on my momma's grave.
Jones pulls away the microphone and tries reasoning with Batti but she shakes her head. Jones keeps repeating Tyrone loves you and Tyrone did nothing wrong.
Batti: If Tyrone did nothing wrong and truly loves me, he'd be here instead of his boy.
She then gives Jones a stiff shoulder and exits the ring an angry huff. She is completely pissed and is gone. Jones is left in the ring standing there by himself, frustrated he couldn't get to Batti.
Cohen: Batti has a point. If Tyrone was true to Batti, why is he not out here to protect her? Meltdown and Ascension are hosted in the same city, same arena. He should be backstage, right?
Connor: All I know is that-
Before Sebastian can finish his sentence, Eve Taylor has snuck her way into the ring behind Jones and leans over to the microphone he is holding.
Taylor: Oops.
Eve immediately drops to one knee and surprises Jones with a hard-hitting low-blow that causes Jones to drop to the canvas, drop the bat and drop the microphone. The crowd boos heavily as Eve Taylor is laughing heavily at this display in a psychotic way, picking up the microphone. She looks down at Jones before looking at the camera.
Taylor: With Love.
She gives a wink and drops the microphone on top of Jones' laid-out body. Taylor immediately exits the ring, grabs her championship, raises it one more time and gets out of dodge before any other shenanigans happen.
Connor: Eve Taylor is a horrible human being and it makes me sick that I have to call her our WZCW World Heavyweight champion.
==============
Backstage, Batti is approached by Stacey Madison.
Stacey:
Batti! Batti, I am so sorry about what's going on. Don't let them get to you.
Batti: You're right. I'll get to them. I can't get to Eve Taylor. So I want Flex Mussel at Kingdom Come. In an "I QUIT" MATCH!!
