SIGNS AND FANS ARE EVERYWHERE AS THE CAMERA PANS AROUND THE JAMMED PACKED ARENA...the noise starts to quiet down as we cut to the announcers table.

The announcers run down the matches for tonight as they explain all the rules and stipulations in every match.  Before they could finish we quickly cut to the backstage area to see VP Smith and VP Sloan laid out on the concrete floor. VP Young arrives and tries to help them up. He mumbles something about the Demons as we cut back to the ring.


HARDCORE TITLE
Wolf vs Gargoyle

Gargoyles music hits the PA system as the crowd erupts. The challenger makes his way to the ring as he has a serious look on his face. His music dies down as SuperCharger Heaven plays. The crowd begins to boo as Wolf, the Hardcore champion, makes his way to the ring. Wolf gets to ringside but doesn't get in the ring. He walks out into the crowd and grabs the mic...

Wolf: This is a Hardcore match right? So i say we start this son of a b!tch in the crowd and make our way all over this arena. 

The bell rings as Gargoyle rushes into the crowd. Both him and Wolf
immediately trade blows. The crowd goes nuts as they make their way up the cold steps. Both men 
battle back and forth until they reach the top. They fight all the way out into the souviener section where Gargs bodyslams Wolf onto the table. A huge crowd gathers as both men fight all over the arena. Wolf throws a can of ketchup at Gargs who fires a beer at 
Wolf. Gargs then grabs a beer of his own and takes a few swigs. He takes another drink but spits it right in the face of Wolf. He then grabs Wolf and DDTs him on 
the
concrete...1..2.. no only a two count. 

Wolf gets up and hits a low blow...he picks Gargs up AND SUPLEXES HIM ON THE CONCESSION STAND CONDIMENT TABLE!!! A IHWA chant starts as he goes for the cover but gets a two. Gargs gets up and hits Wolf with a bottle of mustard. The bottle doesnt break but leaves a bump on Wolfs head. The action spills outside of the arena as Wolf and Gargs bodyslam, suplex, and arm drag each other out into the street. Is that sirens?? What the HELL?? Wolf and Gargs are getting arrested by New York's finest. For 
what, their wrestlers not some bums
fighting on the street. Our ref runs out of the arena to try and stop the cops but both men are put in separate cop cars as they take off. The crowd in the arena starts to boo as they feel jipped. 

We will stay on this story and get you some information on this match as soon as possible. Back inside the arena the officials decide to start the next match.

and howls by the fans. AD easily picks up Mono as he tosses him in the corner. AD has the huge strength advantage. He is 6'5, 257, and Mono is only 5'4, 190. But Monoxide is as quick as lightning and a dirty player as well.

Winners: Eliminator and Alec Diablo


We cut to the police station where Gargoyle and Wolf are in separate cells. The referee comes in and explains to the cops what was going on. He tells him about the Hardcore match and that they are wrestlers and not regular pedestrians. 

The cops release Gargs first then Wolf. Gargs rushes Wolf as both men start to battle in the police station. The cops start to cheer both men on as if they were fans. Wolf grabs a night stick and starts to nail Gargs. Gargs falls to the ground as Wolf goes for a cover....1..2..NO Gargs gets up as both men battle it out in a JAIL CELL. Now that's 
a first in wrestling. Gargs gives Wolf a piledriver on the cell floor. Both men are now battered, but also very bloody. Wolf manages to get up and hit Gargs in the gut with the night stick. He grabs some cuffs and goes to cuff Gargs to the cell. But Gargs kicks Wolf 
and sends him into the STEEL BARS of the jail cell. Wolf goes down...1..2...NO another kick out. 

Gargs calls for the end as he picks up Wolf and hits The FALL FROM GRACE!!! He goes for the cover 1....2...NOOOOOOOO WOlf kicks out. I've never seen that in my life. But that doesn't discourage Gargoyle...he grabs the night stick and clothesline Wolf. He sends him into the steelbars again but this time Wolf reverses it. Both men look spent as blood drips in their eyes. Wolf picks Gargs up and rams him into the bars. He goes for a 
cover...1..2..NOOO Gargs kicks out. My GOD what are these men made of. Wolf grabs the pepper spray but it is knocked out of his hands by Gargoyle. Gargoyle pulls one of the matteresses back and reveals the wire frame of the jail bed. He GRINDS Wolfs face into the wire frame as Wolf HOWLS in pain. My LORD what a mess. 

Wolf stumbles out of the cell and by the desk of one of the officers. He grabs a paper weight and LEVELS Gargs...this is it it's over...1...2......NOOOOOOOOOO Gargoyle is up AGAIN!
