*After the opening video package is played Final Stand becomes live. The Camera pans across the jam packed arena before a huge pyro display signals the opening of Final Stand 4!*
[JR] Welcome everyone to Final Stand 4! This is the grandest stage of them all!
[Michael Cole] I am the Voice of XWL Michael Cole! Along side me Good 'Ol JR! and Jerry The King Lawler!
[Jerry Lawler] This is one of the biggest shows in XWL History! We Have some huge matches lined up for you tonight.
[Michael Cole] Indeed we do Jerry, One of them matches is for the Money in the bank briefcase! Last year we saw Rob Van Damn overcome all the odds to walk out Mr.Money In The Bank. But RVD's joy was cut short after he lost his Money in the bank case to The Animal...Batista.. Who then went onto lose to World Champion Wade Barrett when he cashed in!
[JR] But Tonight's Money in the bank is even bigger! Tonight SIX Men will compete in the high risk Money in the bank match. First up with have a man who caused havoc in XWL in recent months, a former United States Champion.. in Kevin Steen.
[Michael Cole] We also have ,My personal Favourite to win Money In The Bank the current intercontinental Champion.. Dolph Ziggler! but for Dolph to win Money In The Bank, he would have to do what RVD did last year. Because also tonight, Dolph Ziggler will defend his Intercontinental Champion in a triple threat match against Joey Ryan and AJ Styles!
[Jerry Lawler] Dolph Ziggler isn't the only champion in the match.. as we also have Michael Mcgillicutty. Michael Mcgillicutty Has risen up through the ranks here in XWL and it all started with a victory over Ted DiBiase.
[JR] Another man with a bright future here in XWL is James Storm. Tonight he competes in his first Final Stand event, and he has a chance to walk out of it with a guaranteed World title match!
[Michael Cole] Adding to a already huge match, the man who will face Shawn Michaels for the United States Championship later tonight.. John Cena will also step into Money In The bank. John Cena is 2 victories away from making this the biggest night of his career
[Jerry Lawler] and Finally this man was added to the match to replace R Truth by Vickie Guerrero.. The Viper.. Randy Orton. Randy Orton had a huge 2011 here in XWL,so tonight he'll be looking to pick back up where he left off and become Mr.Money in the bank!
[JR] Also Tonight we will see a Divas Money in the bank match! The Miss Money In The bank title is currently held by Layla. Who will cash in her case tonight on a woman who she has had an entire year of history with.. AJ.
[Jerry Lawler] Both divas have been impressive over the past few months but tonight only one of them can walk out Divas Champion
[Michael Cole] We also have a 3 Stages of Hell match tonight. Two men with pure hatred for each other... The Rock and Ted DiBiase. We've seen a side of Ted DiBiase that we didn't know he had. With his viscous uncalled for attacks on The Rock!
[JR] I wouldn't say they were uncalled for Cole. But tonight both men clash in 3 Stages of Hell match! The First Fall will be No Disqualification match , The second fall will be contested in a steel cage and if required we will have a third fall, but the stipulation is unknown to us at this time.
[Jerry Lawler] This is a huge match for both men. A win could put either man in a great position for a possible title match. With so much on the line, and with what they've already showed in recent weeks.. You know that both men will put each other through hell to gain the victory tonight
[JR] And tonight's huge main event.. Two former friends and former tag team partners will clash. After 5 months of this rivalry it will all come to a end tonight,and They'll battle for the World heavyweight Championship.
[Michael Cole] That's right JR, Justin Gabriel and Wade Barrett was once one of the most brutal, dominating teams that XWL had ever seen. Together they've risen up through XWL, with Wade capturing the Intercontinental championship on two occasions and Justin Gabriel becoming the United States champion
[JR] But at The Monster Bash these two men finally collided with Justin Gabriel taking out Wade Barrett after Wade's match. Ever since that these two men have had pure hatred for each other and have put their own body on the line just to get the other.
[Jerry Lawler] They've been through a TLC match, where Wade captured the World Title. To a Last man standing match at Over The Limit, where Both men crashed through the stage leading to both men not been able to make the ten count.
[Michael Cole] But tonight, we will finally get a winner between these two men. and One of them will walk out of Final Stand.. The World Heavyweight Champion.
*Just as Michael Cole finishes talking a theme suddenly hits across the arena....*
*The theme of Triple H hits across the arena.. and Triple H walks out from the curtain*
*He stands at top of the ramp, water bottle in hand, just looking down and the ramp before looking around the arena to see the entire audience on their feet for The Game*
*He Makes his way down the ramp, and climbs onto the apron.. and Does his signature water spray before entering the ring and grabbing a microphone*
[Triple H] It's been a while.... So just incase you've forgotten who the hell I am... I am the Game, The Cerebral Assassin, The King of Kings. I am a thirteen time World Champion, I was once at the very top of this business. But all that went away here in XWL, One thing led to another and I was reduced to been just another face on the roster, I have NEVER been just a face on the roster until I came here. Okay so, I made some bad choices here in XWL, but It's not like I sunk so low that I'd join the nWo or anything like that.. But That wasn't me.. That wasn't The Game, That Triple H was a broken down, washed up, frail old man... But The Cerebral Assassin is back...I couldn't stand been just another superstar.. It's time for me to get back to where I used to be. I need to become the unforgiven, The brutal, The ass kicking, bad ass Triple H that made the person I am today. We go all the way back to Degeneration X... the original,not the 100 re-unions... And all the way back then, I became a star by working my ass off and making other peoples life a living hell. The only life I've made a living hell in the past 3 year.. is my own. But It's time for all that to change. I look at the likes of Shawn Michaels and just see how much he's changed over the past few months. He's nothing like the Shawn Michaels that I've known for the past 15 years. But I look at how he's once again found success whilst I still remained nothing here in XWL,I need to get back to where I used to be.
[Triple H] I've come back for that one last run, To show that I've still got what it takes to be at the top of this business. All my broken bones, the torn quadriceps they all become worth it when I've reached the top, when I've won World Title after World Title. But here in XWL, I've achieved nothing to make it all worth it. and Before I retire and hang up my boots... I feel like I owe it to myself and more importantly I owe it to all of you to make amends, to right all my wrongs. I don't care what I have to do to get there, But I Guarantee it, I will become a 14 Time World Champion, I will once again climb to the top of this business. I've got to start at the very bottom.. But I've done it before and I can do it again. I was once the meanest son of a bitch in this business, and If I need to become that person again then so be it, I have a sledge hammer back there just waiting to be used on anyone who tries get in my way. I've ended careers, I've thrown people through windows, I've hit my own friend right in his surgically repaired back with a sledge hammer... Yeah I've done some things that I'm not exactly proud of... But in this business it's every man for themselves, You have to do whatever it takes to make it.
[Triple H] But some people, Didn't agree with it. They didn't agree with how I handled my business... so they got took out. I didn't get to where I am today by letting people tell me what to do or where to go... I got where I am by doing whatever the hell I wanted to do. And If people crossed me, They'd be taken out , no questions asked. That's the Triple H that I need to bring back, and That's the Triple H that's going to change the face of XWL. This is the Triple H that will make the life every superstar in XWL a living hell...
*Triple H points up to the titantron*
[Triple H] The Triple H you've seen here in XWL is nothing compared to that.. Everything I've done has led me to here. and To become that man again, I need to have a goal.. and that goal is The World Heavyweight championship. Something I've never held in XWL, and It's time for me to change that. I'll do whatever I need to do, I'll break people's bones, I'll throw them through windows, I'll hit them with my sledge Hammer, Hell I'll end their career if I have to. All I know is, I'm going to become a 14 Time World Champion.. Not because I need it but Because I am THAT DAMN GOOD.
*Triple H drops the microphone as his theme once again blasts through the arena*
[Michael Cole] Triple H returning to XWL after missing a few months of action, and showing that this time he means business.
[JR] Triple H has never really got going here in XWL. But now The Game is back and if he's anything like the Triple H that I remember, The rest of the XWL superstars better be prepared.
[Michael Cole] But up next folks in our opening contest Ted DiBiase and The Rock will tear each other apart in a Three stages of hell match.
[JR] This has been one hell of a rivalry so far, and it comes to a end tonight. Let's take a look back at all this came together.
*Final stand then fades to a video for The Rock vs Ted DiBiase*

Three Stages Of Hell Match The Rock vs Ted DiBiase
Part 1
The Rocks theme hits and is almost instantly drowned out by the insane reaction from this Final Stand crowd, they hate this man with a passion and the reaction only triples in intensity when The Rock fires out from behind the curtain clearly hyped for this HUGE match up, his biggest in XWL so far....
The Rock makes his way down the ramp slowly, soaking in this atmosphere, it is like nothing he has ever seen or heard before in his entire career, the goosebumps finally begin to appear on his body as he climbs his way up the steps and along the apron....
[JR] What an opening contest! Three stages of hell, two former friends, two now bitter and hatred filled rivals, I can't think of a better match to kick off the fourth anniversary of Final Stand!
[Michael Cole] It's time for Ted to put up or shut up, he claims he can beat The Rock and we're going to find out if he can do just that.
[King] They've both made a lot of claims, and out now is The Rock, can he put away Ted in two consecutive falls, or will we have to go through all three?
[JR] I have no clue what the third stage could be, but no doubt these men's focuses are not on what the last could possibly be, but what the first two are.
The Rock climbs up onto the turnbuckle and throws up his signature taunt, slapping in the face of everyone who used to look up to him he holds it for a long moment before bringing his arm back down and staring intently into the sea of former fans....
The Rock hops down off the turnbuckle and stands in the middle of the ring, awaiting the theme music of the new fan favorite, the young boy who was once his student, once his friend, now his bitter rival.....
Ted DiBiase's theme hits, and instantly as he walks out from behind the curtain Ted's welcome by the Houston fans with a tremendous reception.
He plays to the fans instantly, pointing to them, he's geared up for a war, slaps his face then proceeds to make his way down the ramp stopping at a group of fans holding a sign in support of him then hugs them all appreciative of all support he gets no matter how big or how small.
[Michael Cole] What a suck up!
[King] Because he shows his love for his fans just like they do him?
[JR] Don't pay him no mind, King. Ladies and gentlemen, there he is, Ted DiBiase, The Rock's opponent, his former friend, and we're about to lay witness to a true slobber knocker!
[King] You said it! It all began back at Eye For An Eye, controversy struck when Ted accidentally played a role in The Rock losing his World Heavyweight Championship, and it's lead us to now, Final Stand, the Mack daddy of them all, and I can't tell you how excited I am!
[Michael Cole] No doubt these two have history, and I don't deny that this match is a must see, I just wish The Miz were here tonight...Ted savagely injured him, and now he's missing perhaps the biggest Final Stand ever!
[King] Oh pipe down about The Miz.
Ted jump up onto the apron, steps in, eyes The Rock, then makes his way over to the far corner standing tall on top of the second ropes with his arms spread wide soaking in the love and praise from the fans in the arena.
His arms lower, he closes his eyes, takes a deep breath, then shows one last smile to the fans.
Then jumps off the corner, backs up stretching and preparing himself physically and mentally for the challenge ahead.
ZANDERS
The Bell rings.
Both men slowly begin to walk closer towards each other while at the same times circling the ring, the booming crowd gets louder and louder by the second as the competitors pace back and forward while inching closer....and....closer, they eventually get toe to toe with each other, nose to nose, man to man, a few insults are swapped out of earshot before the boiling crowd explode as The Rock throws the first punch, Ted hits right back as they begin to trade huge right hands in the center of the ring, each blow gaining a huge pop from the buzzing crowd. Ted breaks the sequence with a vicious gut kick to The Rock knocking him off balance, while The Rock steps back Ted takes the advantage by flying forward with a huge clothesline!
[JR] And we're underway with this HUGE grudge match!
[Michael Cole] C'Mon Rock, We're rooting for you!
[King] Who's we? You and his mother?
But the Great One ducks under it just in time and begins to hit back with a rapid series of massive right hands until DiBiase is backed into the corner, The Rock pulls his arm all the way back behind his head, spits on it and comes forward with a skull cracking punch to Ted who falls to the seated position in the turnbuckle, The Rock begins to get all fired up and taking a page from his old pal Stone Colds book, stomps a mud hole in his ass. After a barrage of lethal stomps Ted rolls out of the ring for a moment to try and catch his breathe.
[JR] Shades of ol' Stone Cold there King...
[King] Yeah, he's probably smiling in the back, those two have some serious history
Before he can even register where he is The Rock has climbed out after him, The Rock grabs him and picks him up by the head before slamming his face down on the barricade, Ted staggers round the side of the ring towards the commentators table trying to shake the cobwebs but unfortunately for him The Rock gives chase and nails him in the back of the head with a forearm, knocking him to the floor. The sold out crowd are still as hot as ever, going insane for Ted to get up as their chants ring throughout the arena, DiBiase gets back up to his feet but The Rock is waiting for him with a harsh kick to the gut, The Rock goes to Irish Whip a dazed Ted into the ring post but with cat-like reaction time he reverses it into an Irish Whip of his own sending The Rock careening into the steel ring post to a huge pop from the crowd!
[Michael Cole] Why would you do that to another human being!? That's sick!
[King] I'm sure if the shoe was on the other foot....
Ted picks up The Rock by the hair and throws him spine first into the corner of the barricade, Ted gears up the crowd with a battle cry taunt before charging full steam ahead and spearing Rock right into the steel! The crowd let out a huge gasp as this match picks up fast, the sheer hatred between these two men can be felt in the air as Ted doesn't take much time to rest and pounces on a downed Rock, firing in rights and lefts, intent on pounding him into the ground! The crowds party is cut short when The Rock rakes Ted in the eyes and kicks him off! Rock gets to his feet and picks him up by the hair before Irish Whipping him hard into the ring post!
[Michael Cole] Yes! You got him Rock!
[King] Told you....
Ted bounces off and hits the floor hard as his eyes glaze over, looking damn near concussed! The Rock points to his head, saying he's smarted before kicking DiBiase hard in the gut a series of times, the crowd are red hot and pouring out a river of boo's for the first bout of the night as The Rock picks up Ted once again and slams his head off of the commentators table, he strips the table of its cover and grabs the left monitor, ripping it out of the table, but when he turns around to take out the second monitor he gets a nasty surprise as Ted DiBiase is holding it, Rock doesn't get enough time to react before being laid out with a sickening shot to the skull!
[Michael Cole] Hey! That's our property! How would he like it if I went to his family home and hit someone with his TV!
[King] With arms like yours I'd be surprised if you could lift a TV
Ted drops the monitor to the floor and lets out a huge war cry before grabbing The Rock by the hair and picking him up, slamming his head down on the table and Irish Whipping him into the corner of the barricade! Ted looks at JR, shrugs and runs at Rock full steam ahead before clothes lining him and himself over the steel and into the crowd! The fans go insane and begin to swarm around the superstars, security floods in and tries their best but to no avail, hundreds of fans circle The Rock and Ted DiBiase and they rise to their feet, Ted lunges forward with a huge right hand which is replied by one of The Rocks own, they start to trade punches among the crowd with each one gaining a huge pop!
[JR] This match has spilled into the crowd and their loving it!
[Michael Cole] Theodore DiBiase Jnr! How would your father react to seeing this public fighting among civilians!
[JR] But The Rocks there too
[Michael Cole] Oh please! That's self defense
[King] Of course it is.....
Ted starts to gain the upper hand and knocks The Rock onto his ass with a huge punch to the jaw, while Rock is down Ted takes a cup of Cola from a fan and takes a huge gulp before pouring the rest of it on The Rock who is slowly rising to his feet, Ted raising his hands in the air and throws away the cup but takes too long as The Rock nails a low blow that can be felt by every male in the arena! Rock then grabs Ted by the back of the neck and the trunks and tosses him over the barricade back onto the floor at ringside, Rock hops up onto the barricade after him and waits for Ted to rise, The Rock uncharacteristically goes for a crossbody off of the barricade but Ted ducks underneath it sending The Rock crashing onto the steel steps!
[JR] That's just hard to watch, I don't care who you are...
[Michael Cole] Call an ambulance! This match should be called off!
[King] It's anything goes Cole, shut up and watch....
Rock rolls down the steps and doubles over in agony letting out cries of pain as Ted regains his bearings, Ted walks over to the apron and begins to rummage underneath for some weapons, before long he pulls out a table, picks it up and slides it into the ring. He walks back over to The Rock and picks him up before rolling him into the ring. Ted climbs up onto the apron and walks along before climbing up the turnbuckle, he has his massive foot stomp in mind, he leaps off of the top rope and soars through the air but The Rock manages to roll away at the last second causing Ted to fold in pain from his ankle crushing on impact!
[JR] That looks like a nasty injury right there
[Michael Cole] Serves him right! Trying to leap off of the top rope, what an idiot!
Ted writhes around the floor in agony, giving The Rock enough time to get to his feet and set up the table, the crowd is going absolutely crazy, booing The Rock like it's going out of fashion, Rock however doesn't care and picks up Ted, taking him over to the corner before lifting him up to the top rope, the entire arena rise to their feet as they see what's coming, Rock hooks Teds arm over his head lifts him into the air, both men travel through the air almost in slow motion before coming crashing down, through the table!
The Rock rolls over to Ted and attempts the first fall of the match....
1..............
2................
[Michael Cole] YES IT'S OVER!
NO! Ted kicks out! The Rock rolls off Ted and slowly stands up, taking this time to catch some breathe, He points to his head signalling that he has an idea, He climbs out of the ring and dismantles the steel steps, with a huge boo from the crowd he slides the steps in the ring just as Ted is getting up, DiBiase see's his golden opportunity and runs full speed, baseball sliding the stairs back in The Rocks face! The Rock falls backwards out cold as the stairs land on top of him, Ted rolls out of the ring and begins to search under the apron for a moment until he finally pulls out a Kendo stick along with a sadistic grin, he raises the stick high and brings it right down on top of the steps! The Rock howls in pain as he manages to roll out from underneath...
[JR] Ted using the environment well here
[King] He saw a chance and he took it, very smart from the youngster!
Ted picks up The Rock punches him square in the jaw before delivering a sick sidewalk slam on to the steps! The crowd cheer as The Rocks back folds over the steel much to Teds satisfaction. Ted pulls the stairs out from under The Rock and hits him right in the ribs with them as a sickening crunch is heard, next Ted slides them in the ring, he then picks up Rock next and rolls him in after them...
Ted goes under the ring again and pulls out two chairs, he throws them over the top rope and climbs into the ring, he grabs one of the chairs and smacks The Rock across the back with it, he then places it under Rocks face and smacks his head off of it, he picks up the other chair and with an evil smile and a silent arena he lifts it high above him hoping to scramble The Great Ones brains, he brings it down with a loud battle cry but The Rock rolls out of the way at the last second and Ted connects with the other chair sending a shockwave through his body...
[Michael Cole] Haha! That's karma for you!
[King] Karma?
[JR] Yeah what the hell are you blabbering about now?
[Michael Cole] He tried to scramble The Rocks brains and end his career!
[King] ..................
The Rock quickly gets to his feet and begins to unload hell on Ted, he hits him with a hard series of lethal punches, he Irish Whips Ted off of the ropes and hits him with a huge spinebuster on the rebound, The Rock bounces up to Teds head and with the entire crowd booing incredibly he runs off of the ropes and comes back, jumping over a downed Ted before running to the next ropes, he runs back and goes for the most electrifying move in all of entertainment, the peoples elbow! BUT MISSES! Ted rolls out of the way and both men quickly scramble to their feet, Rock goes for a huge clothesline but Ted ducks it and nails a lightening quick DREAM STREET! He goes for the cover and the crowd are on their feet!
1.................
2.....................
[JR] Get him son! YES!
NO! The Rock kicks out! Ted gets up to his feet in a rage, he can't believe The Rock just kicked out! Ted picks up The Rock by the head and Irish Whips him off of the ropes, on the rebound Ted goes for that big sit out spine buster and he connects fully! Ted begins to get up and he claps in time with the crowd, hyping them up like crazy! The crowd are cheering in anticipation as The Rock rises to his feet groggy, he backs up straight into Ted who locks in the Million Dollar Dream! With nowhere to go The Rock is stuck in the middle of the ring! Will he tap? Does he have any other options!? The crowd are going insane as The Rock begins to lose signs of consciousness, Ted wrenches harder and harder.....
[JR] Yes! Tighter! Tighter!
[Michael Cole] This is barbaric! You people disgust me! Go on Rock! You can get out!
[King] Sure as hell doesn't look like it....
But out of nothing but desperation The Rock drops to his knees and rolls Ted forward out of the hold, Ted is first to his feet and picks up one of the chairs from earlier! He smacks it off of the mat and gets a far away look in his eyes, Ted absolutely hates this man and intends to take his head off his shoulders, Rock slowly rises to his feet and turns around groggily, Ted takes a BIG swing but The Rock ducks under it swiftly and nails him with a massive ROCK BOTTOM!
He covers....
[JR] NO! YOU SON OF A--
[Michael Cole] YES! COVER HIM!
[King] It's all over!
1.......................
2.........................
3! The Rock wins the first fall!
[JR] No! I can't believe it!
[Michael Cole] One down one to go! Haha!
[King] The cage won't be so easy....I can assure you.
DAVIDS
As the fan's disappointment over the result of the first stage of this three stages of hell finally dies down. The lights in the arena dim down and the excitement from the fans is heard all around as the cage begins lowering above the ring where Ted's still trying to shake off that last match and The Rock smiles as confident as ever.
[Michael Cole] This'll be quick.
[JR] What are you talking about? These two men may have just had a hell of a match just a moment ago, but by no means does that draw any sort of line as to who has and doesn't have this series of matches won.
[King] While I'll admit Ted losing the first of a possible three matches doesn't do well for his confidence, he was caught off guard in the end, and I know for a fact he won't fall into position so easily in this cage match.
[Michael Cole] Please, look at Ted, he's a beaten man, for someone that's much younger than The Rock, he looks absolutely pathetic! I don't even see why Rock is gonna bother going through with this second match, he could easily walk out that door right now and that would be it!
[JR] I don't think you're giving Ted enough credit, the man's been on an incredible roll as of late, and that's not by luck alone. He may have had a rough start, but it's possible to bounce back, especially in a brutal match like we're just about to witness.
The cage is finally lowered, the fans are on their feet with a loud chant of support directed at Ted DiBiase. As the referee points to Ted whose barely on his feet, and to The Rock who looks fresh as a daisy, he signals for the bell and this steel cage match is underway! Rock feeling particularly confident having the one match victory advantage already just looks at Ted with a huge grin on his face. Ted breathes heavily, frustrated by losing the first match, and trying to find it in himself to gain victory in this unforgiving match. Rock casually walks over to Ted, leans his face in forward then points at himself shouting out "Go on!" Ted's fist is clinched, he raises it up, looks at his balled up fist, then at The Rock's arrogant expression his face, but quickly instead of punching The Rock like he had expected, he shoves him with all of the strength he could muster up at that very second! The fans pop loudly for The Rock getting knocked down on his behind, he quickly gets back up, his smile fades, then returns the favor shoving Ted down onto the mat, then without hesitation calls for the referees to open up the door to the cage. "The Rock is finished with this loser, open it up!" he says, and the fan's reaction isn't kind at all, they boo at the thought of this match being over so quickly, but just as he's about to steps out of the cage, from behind Ted grabs him and throws him skull first into the edge of the cage opening! The once booing fans are instantly sent into an out of controllable feeling of excitement as The Rock is driven head first once more into the cage door!
[JR] That's what this match was designed to be used for, and Ted's taking full advantage of that!
[King] I'll say! The Rock's getting knocked silly!
[Michael Cole] Oh please, he's only delaying the inevitable. The Rock won their first match, and he'll win this one too!
Ted then grabs him by the back of his neck, pulls him back into the ring, points at the far left side of the cage, then charges right at it sending Rock face and chest bouncing off the unforgiving steel and onto the mat. But the fans want more, and from Ted, the feeling is mutual, he grabs Rock again, points to the opposite side of the cage much like the first time, then tosses him right into that side of the cell too! Rock bounces off as if he were rebounding off a trampoline then crashes onto the hard mat once again. But he's not done there, he pulls him once more, then throws him right into the third side of the cage with the impact being just as brutal as the other two times! The fans are loving it, and judging by the sadistic smile on his face, so is Ted himself...He grabs Rock once more, points to the fourth and final side of the steel cage, then chucks him right into that side too!
[JR] Ted is fired up and these fans are loving every second of it!
[Michael Cole] How can they cheer a man that's savagely attacking The Rock like this?!
[King] Because The Rock's had this coming for a long time, Cole!
Ted let's out a loud fired up scream causing the fans to cheer even louder as he looks down at The Rock whose on his hands and knees clearly taken a lot out of him from meeting the cage so many times. He crawls over to the corner, trying to pull himself up and recover from Ted's attack, but just as he reaches his feet and is propped up against the corner, a charging DiBiase attempts a big boot, but The Rock places his hands in front of his face not only blocking the attempt, but sending Ted backwards rolling from the force but getting to his feet, only to be turned inside out that very next second with a hard clothesline from the great one! The Rock drops to one knee, holds his faces, looks down at the marks on his chest from being thrown into it as if he were a sack of meat, then with an angered expression his face pulls Ted up by his short hair, looks right at him shouting many things in his face, then attempts to get some payback by charging right at the cage with his hand gripped around the back of Ted's neck, just as they're about to make impact, Ted puts his hands and feet out just barely avoiding serious impact. The Rock tries to force Ted's face into the cage, but Ted's fighting it, he tightly grips the cage refusing to let The Rock do the damage he wants to, but Rock being persistent begins to push Ted's face closer and closer into the cage, until it's no use, and Ted's face begins to be grated against the cage wall! His screams of pain drown out any other sound in the arena, The Rock continues to grind his face against the cage, side to side, up and down, and just as a trickle of blood drips down from his forehead and onto the mat, Ted uses some quick thinking by pulling his arms together and connecting with hard elbow shots to The Rock's ribs, but despite his attempt of getting freed The Rock continues to force Ted's face into the cage as if he were trying to scar him for life!
[King] Oh that's sick! Ted's face is being grinded against the steel cage!
[Michael Cole] Payback is a bitch ain't it? That's what Ted gets, he tried to ruin The Rock's movie star looks, but look at him now, his ugly mug is being made uglier!
[JR] You really take any chance you can get to bash Ted, don't you Cole?
[Michael Cole] I'm a broadcast journalist, I'm just giving my well educated views.
[King] So calling Ted ugly is a well educated view?
[Michael Cole] I don't have to explain my thoughts to a simpleminded fool like you, King, now let's get back to calling the match, some people are professionals you know.
The Rock continues to treat Ted as if he were a block of cheese, Ted's face begins to drip even more blood, and you can tell Ted's getting infuriated, Ted tries to elbow The Rock a few more times with much more force, but when that doesn't work he kicks his boot back kicking The Rock straight in the nuts! His grip is instantly broken, and despite dripping blood Ted's focus is not lost, he grabs The Rock by his neck and bounces his skull off the steel cage returning the favor by grinding his movie star face onto the very same cage where Ted had just had the same done to him. Rock lets out equally as painful screams, his face also begins to drip a little blood, but that's when Ted gets a taste of his own medicine when The Rock does the very same thing Ted did and kicks Ted right in the balls! He falls back on the mat in pain, The Rock swipes his face of the blood, looks at his stained hand, then mounts on top of Ted trying to beat the living hell out of him with closed fist shot over and over much to the fan's dismay.
[King] Would you just listen to these fans in the arena tonight? They must despise The Rock as much as Ted himself!
[Michael Cole] The way I see it, let them boo, let them jeer, because The Rock is the most entertaining man whether he's in a ring or in one of his many highly successful movies. Which these boo'ing idiots pay to see.
[JR] That's not very nice, Cole.
[Michael Cole] Sometimes the truth isn't a very nice thing.
As The Rock pounds away, Ted tries to shield his face but it's of no use, Rock continues to lay into him as if he were tenderizing meat! But just as The Rock attempts yet another shot to the head, Ted manages to catch his fist in the palm of one of his hands! Rock tries to pull away but DiBiase's grip is strong, so as any man would do next, he tries to hit him with his free hand, but Ted having another free hand as well manages to catch that fist trapping it just like the first. Ted then looks at The Rock with a hugely pissed off expression, and before The Rock can even prepare himself, Ted connects with a hard headbutt! But it doesn't seem to do as much damage as Ted had hoped, Rock then returns the favor with a headbutt of his own, but Ted also seems to have been able to withstand the force of a headbutt. Ted then goes for another, and quickly another, and just as it appears as if they're doing the damage this time, Rock charges his head right at Ted's...Just as Ted was doing the same and their heads collide causing each man to collide with all the force they could have possibly had, and instantly both fall back to the mat holding their heads in pain as blood drips down each of their foreheads.
[JR] That's using your head!
[King] Judging by the last few minutes, it's almost as if they're trying to one up the other.
[Michael Cole] Hardly a competition of one-upmanship, The Rock can do anything better than Ted, that's a well known fact.
[JR] How exactly is that a fact?
[Michael Cole] Well I wouldn't expect you to be able to wrap your head around it, but in layman's terms, The Rock is clearly the better of the two.
Back to the action we see both The Rock and Ted DiBiase stirring on the mat, still feeling the effects of their war of the headbutts. Ted tries to roll over to the ropes to pull himself up, while Rock opts to position himself into the corner for the leverage he needs to be able to stand after he and Ted were just knocked silly. Ted finally places his hand on the bottom rope, uses his second to grip the second rope, then finally grabs hold of the third rope just barely pulling himself up but leaning against the cage for the time being. Rock however places both hands onto the top rope in the corner, then uses his strength to pull himself up but also feeling the effects of this match he's leaned up against the corner visibly out of it. As both lean in their respective positions, they raise their heads up, lock eyes, and instantly their pride for wanting to be better than the other, and their hatred for one another causes them to pull away from their places, and walk closely to each other. They throw up their arms, then as they finally reach one another they tie up, Rock overpowers Ted forcing him into a corner, but Ted using his technical ability manages to duck under The Rock's arm, and now has him trapped in the corner. But The Rock begins to push himself away from the corner, and starts to use his strength to overpower Ted once more causing him to drop down to one knee, Rock then pushes down on him further sending him down to both knees. He smiles proud of himself for being much stronger than Ted, but that's when Ted uses his placement to his advantage, flipping The Rock overhead and breaking their grip. Rock rises to his feet annoyed, while Ted shows a slight smirk showing that while he may not be as strong as The Rock, he's got a few tricks up his sleeve to even them out.
Ted then feeling confident look right at The Rock then motions for him to "just bring it" which infuriates The Rock, he runs right at Ted only to be caught, lifted up then dropped down on his knee with an inverted atomic drop, Rock holds his groin region in pain, then swings at Ted, who ducks under his arm, then runs gaining momentum off the ropes for a busaiku knee, but The Rock turns around throwing his arm out turning Ted inside out with a sickening clothesline! Rock then quickly covers Ted yelling at the referee to hurry up. The referee quickly drops down into position and begins to count as the fans cheer Ted on...
1....
2........
But Ted finds the strength to push his shoulder off the mat much to The Rock's chagrin.
[Michael Cole] Oh come on, that was three ref! Ted paid off this referee didn't he?
[JR] No Cole, he's known for having quite a bit of resiliency when it comes to big matches like this.
[King] Exactly, so pipe down and let's get back to the match!
Rock attempts to pull Ted off the mat, only to be caught with a jaw breaker, Ted then throws Rock into the ropes, leaps off the mat for a drop kick, but The Rock stops in his tracks, points to his head signaling that he's smarter than that. Then runs right at Ted only to be caught and dropped right on his ass with a hard hip toss! Rock holds his behind in pain as he staggers to his feet, Ted runs off the ropes with something big in mind...Then just as The Rock turns around, Ted comes flying at him, Rock side steps and DiBiase unable to stop in his tracks crashes and burns right into the cage! He falls down inbetween the ropes and against the cage, Rock just smiles largely then pulls Ted by his arm and leg, drags him to the middle of the ring, looks out into the crowd as he kicks Ted's arms in, takes a deep breath taking in the scent of the arena, then starts to cough as if he was dying yelling out "Do you people not take bathes?!" He shakes it off, then throws his arms out, slowly begins removing one of his elbow pads as slow as possible, then looks at the cage surrounding him, notices he can't toss it as far as usual, then just throws it into the cage, then leaps over Ted's body rebounding off the ropes, then jumps over him yet again bouncing off the second set of ropes....Ted jumps up to his feet however, attempts to catch The Rock with a drop kick, but just as he raises himself up in the air, Rock catches him and slams him down with a Rock Bottom! An annoyed Rock then shouts at Ted, then jumps over him, rebounds off the ropes, jumps over him a second time, rebounds off the other set of ropes, then drops the elbow down connecting with The People's elbow finally!
[JR] He did it! The People's elbow!
[King] Those people didn't seem too excited about that.
[Michael Cole] Who cares? The Rock's got this match in the bag!
Rock then walks over to the cage wall, then begins to start a long climb out of the cage. He props himself up on the flimsy ropes placing his fingers inbetween the holes of the cage. But surprisingly enough Ted bounces up to his feet, clearly in pain but no way in hell was he about to let The Rock get away so easily. He grabs Rock by his boot just as he was trying to climb, Rock frantically tries to kick him away, but it's no use, Ted then forcefully yanks The Rock off by his leg and he comes crashing down back first on the mat. That's when DiBiase grabs Rock by his legs, pulls him into position near the closest cage wall, then propels him forward smacking his skull off the cage! He drops down groggy and that's when Ted then follows up a swift half nelson backbreaker. Instead of covering, he looks out into the screaming crowd, then backs up against the corner, then pulls himself up until he's eventually got both feet on the top rope. He stands tall, looks at his target, , hoping this attempt goes better than in the first fall....Then after shaking off the doubts, leaps off gaining impressive height before connecting successfully with a hard double foot stomp into The Rock's ribs causing him to scream out in pain almost instantly.
[King] The Rock's ribs could've just been shattered!
[JR] He's in tremendous pain right now that's for sure.
[Michael Cole] Can you believe that? Ted has to resort to trying to break his bones just to win? And he's supposed to be a role model!
Ted takes a few seconds to get up, his ankles still weak from when it was first tweaked this past week on Breakdown, then after placing his hands on it trying to straighten it out, he makes his way over to the ropes and begins to climb the cage. The fans are cheering him on as he slowly but surely makes his way almost to the top, looks down noticing The Rock stirring, but instead of stopping his climb he just tries to climb faster. He pulls himself up finally on top of the cage, one leg hanging on the inside, the other outside, after noticing how high up he is, he takes a deep breath, then starts to climb over with victory in his sights...But the fans cheers quickly turn to loud boos as The Rock gets up to his feet, notices Ted's just inches away from winning, then as Ted start to dangle down from the cage ready to jump down to the floor below, The Rock kicks the cage door open, just as Ted had released his grip over the top of the cage and crashes down nuts first onto the top of the cage door!
[JR] Oh my god that was nasty!
[King] It hurt me just watching it!
[Michael Cole] That is the work of a master of his craft, Ted thought he had the match won, but within an instant the tables have turned and regardless of how this match goes there won't be any meetings with Maryse anytime soon!
In pain from the unbearable drop on the door, Ted hangs on top of it, his arms and legs hanging off, The Rock then grabs the door pulling it closer, then an evil smile forms on his face as a helpless Ted is pulled close with hard force smashing his arm and leg inbetween the cage as the door is slammed as shut as it could possibly be in that situation. Ted let's out an agonizing scream, and instantly The Rock does it again! Garnering the same reaction out of Ted, the fans begin a huge "You suck!" chant directed straight at The Rock. He then yells out "The Rock doesn't suck!" before slamming the cage door for a third time! Then with an arrogant smile, he lets out a cocky "That sucked!" then pauses looking at the helpless Ted, "for him!" Rock then grabs Ted by his arm and leg yanking him off the cage and throws him back into the ring with hard force and worse Ted lands on his weakened arm. Rock slams the cage door shut, then shouts out for the referee to get ready. He covers hooking his leg as confident as ever...
1....
2.......
But Ted finds the strength to lift his injured shoulder off the canvas at the last possible moment!
[JR] I'm surprised Ted was able to get his shoulder off the mat after being physically destroyed just a minute ago.
[King] That plan backfired and then some on the part of Ted DiBiase! Ouch!
[Michael Cole] The Rock once again proves why he's the better man by utilizing this cage in ways like never before!
Rock pulls Ted off the mat, wrenches him by his softened arm, Irish whips him into the corner with hard force, charges at him only to be met with a raised boot by DiBiase. But that doesn't stop The Rock as he comes flying at Ted once again only to be elbowed right in the jaw, Ted then props himself up onto the top rope, stands tall holdings his ankle then as The Rock turns around, before he can take flight, Rock jumps to the ring ropes in front of him, and the movement of the ropes causes Ted to lose his footing and crashes down onto the mat!
[King] Ted could've just broken his collarbone!
[Michael Cole] Good! He challenged The Rock to this match and by the looks of it Ted seems to be the one that's not got a snowballs chance in hell of winning!
[JR] It may not look good right now, but never count Ted out.
Instead of going for the cover after that horrific fall though, Rock pulls Ted up by his arm, throws him into the ropes, Rock kneels down prepared to perhaps catch him with a spinebuster on the rebound, but Ted kicks his heel up connecting with a stiff shot to The Rock's forehead. However Ted's clearly more effected at the moment, so Rock gets over his daze, runs off the ropes, but Ted follows him rebounding just seconds after he does, then as The Rock turns around Ted connects with a hard clothesline! Ted quickly grabs his arm holding it, clearly in a lot of pain, then feeling that this could be his time, he pulls The Rock up in his father's famous Million dollar clutch up to his feet, starts to lift him up for Dream Street, but The Rock grabs Ted by his arm then drops down to a seated position hyper extending his elbow against his shoulder not only breaking the hold but sending Ted into a state of agony to the mat. But instead of trying to pin him, Rock makes his way over to the cage wall and begins to slowly try to escape. The fans are showing their hatred for The Rock by booing and jeering him as he starts to make his way up to the top of the cage. While Ted's rolling on the mat holding his arm trying to find the strength to stay in this match and somehow win.
[King] This could be it! Ted's arm has gotten be injured after the punishment it's taken over the course of this match.
[JR] I don't think anything on Ted feels too good at the moment, but his arm seems to be the thing that's giving him the most trouble.
[Michael Cole] And that's why The Rock is climbing and will soon be over and out of the cage with a perfect clean sweep over this goofball.
Just as The Rock is starting to finally reach the top, Ted looks up, and even though he's in a whole hell of a lot of pain, he gets to his feet, staggers over to the ropes, then quickly begins to climb up. Rock looks down, notices Ted, he seems surprised, but doesn't lose focus as he reaches the top of the cage finally. Ted in hot pursuit, despite being in a lot of pain makes quick ground and gets just close enough to grab The Rock by his boot. He then makes his way onto the top of the cage joining The Rock and that's when Ted connects with a quick right hand knocking him back before flying back at Ted with a right of his own. They then continue to exchange right hands as they brawl in perhaps the most dangerous place they could be at the moment. Fans stand on their feet both worried and excited for both, Ted opts to not go for a punch suddenly, then grabs The Rock by his head and bounces his skull off the cage! He then does it again and again reopening the wound from earlier causing more blood to pour out. Rock however stops another attempt, rakes Ted in the eyes, then tries to climb out! The fans are booing at the possibility of him winning this match, but despite Ted's vision being currently blinded just as he's about to let go of the cage and jump to the floor, Ted grabs out locking him in an almost choking head lock! His feet dangle from the cage, and The Rock screams out for him to let him go as he begins to gasp for air.
[Michael Cole] He's gonna choke the life out of him!
[King] It's all legal though!
[JR] It's unorthodox, it's dangerous, and it's career threatening, but it keeps The Rock from dropping to the floor so it's effective.
He continues to choke him, The Rock is starting to go limp, he's seeing colors, his movements are becoming limited, and for the first time this entire match he's also speechless! Ted then using all of the strength he could possibly find in himself to pull the limp Rock back on to the top of the cage. He takes a much needed breather, but just as he was about to follow up in some shape or form, Rock connects with an elbow shot to the jaw that was heard worldwide! Ted holds his jaw in pain, while Rock begins to climb back into the ring, perhaps feeling that escaping the cage door has to be easier than this. But just as he gets his feet on the top rope with him steadying himself against the cage, Ted shakes off the effects of that hard shot, then drops down to the top rope too. Rock tries to send Ted head first into the cage as soon as his feet met the ropes, but Ted however elbows him in the ribs, then fired up, he grabs Rock and sends him face first into the steel knocking him silly...But that's not enough for him, he does it again, and again, and again, and one last time! The blood begins to drip down The Rock's face, he's seemingly out of it at the moment, and Ted catches an idea, he grabs Rock from behind hooking him in the million dollar dream clutch! A wave of excitement overtakes any other sound in the arena, they want it, but will they get it?! Ted screams out, tries to follow through with perhaps Dream Street from the high elevated location they're in, but Rock fights it, he directs a series of elbow shots to Ted's ribs fighting and fighting, knowing that there's no way he can let Ted go through with this vicious idea in mind. But Ted's hold over him is strong, he endures the elbows, The Rock frantically tries to break the hold trying to do everything humanly possible in this position, but his strikes seem to do nothing, Ted's got his mind on something, and nothings gonna stop him! Rock screams out as he's held tightly, tries to kick his heel back to low blow Ted, but his positioning is off, and everyone in the arena rises to their feet, their mouths open in shock, and excitement heard all around as Ted finally jumps off the cage wall with The Rock helplessly being taken with him and being slammed to the mat with the biggest Dream Street in history!
[JR] Bah gawd!!!
[King] I can't believe it!! I've never seen anything like that!
[Michael Cole] No!! Rock!!
As the two make impact onto the mat, the fans are eagerly cheering their hero, as he falls on top of The Rock in an instant but last ditch effort cover...

Part 2
ZANDERS
The Crowd boom in excitement as the cage begins to rise from the ring up into the ceiling once again, The Rock and Ted seem to be both motionless, lying on the mat, each with blood dripping from their heads, each wishing it was over, but it's called hell for a reason, and the final stage approaches...
[JR] He's done it!
[King] That was unbelievable! If you couldn't tell these two absolutely despised one another before tonight, this match proved it!
[Michael Cole] As much as it pains me to admit it...That was a crafty idea, and it got him the three count.
[JR] Cole, did you just compliment Ted DiBiase?
[Michael Cole] I may not be fond of him, but I can't deny that he didn't do a good job here. It seemed as if The Rock had this won in numerous points of the match, but Ted just refused to lose. They've both still got one match left to go, and I still say Ted's got too many lingering injuries that'll handicap him in whatever their third match is.
[King] I suppose we'll see, the cage is being raised now, both men have had a lot taken out of them, and it all will end in this one final mysterious match...
[Michael Cole] Whatever it is, it's going to favor The Rock!
With that, the lights in the arena go out, nothing can be seen but pitch blackness, white spotlights cross the arena, scanning the wild crowd, the commentators, the ring, The Rock, Ted DiBiase and finally the lights stop on the titantron! The screen turns black, white bold writing appears on it, it reads, "Normal match" which flickers to "Hell in a cell" The crowd pop but it quickly changes to "Ambulance match" before they can react it changes to "Pig Pen Match" The cycle then begins to spin rapidly showing every match from Punjabi Prison to Texas Bullrope.......the screen flicks off and on......showing the match to be.......
LAST MAN STANDING!
[JR] WE'RE IN FOR A SLOBBERKNOCKER HERE FOLKS!
[Michael Cole] Haha! Yes! Teds leg is already injured, this match has got to favor The Rock!
[King] I wouldn't be so sure Michael, if ones things for certain it's that this young man Ted DiBiase has absolutely no quit in him, not a single bone in his body will give up. I'm not sure how The Rock will do this!
DAVIDS
Both men slowly rise to their feet, completely spent from the first two stages of hell, The Rock is first to stand fully, Ted quickly following, both men scan the arena and see a rabid crowd, all wanting Ted to come out on top of this fantastic match up, The goosebumps fly across Teds body as the chants of his name ring through his ears, The Rock however looks composed, pissed and ready to end this, he raises his hand up in front of him, right in Teds face and does his signature just bring it taunt....Ted responds by just smirking, then nods at him, attempts to connect with a punch, but The Rock saw it coming and smiles at Ted's predictability, tries to catch it in the palm of his hand, but just as he does, Ted's free fist comes flying connecting right on target! Rock falls to his behind, he holds his bloody face with one of his palms, he seemed pissed off, even more than he was if that's even possible. Ted however doesn't let up there, he grabs Rock by his arm, Irish whips him into the corner at a quick pace, then runs over towards him, places his feet on the second ropes, raises his fist up, then one by one connects with several strikes to the top of his skull. The fans count along in unison, one...two...three...four...five...six....seven...eight....nine....Just as Ted's about to land number ten, he plays to the fans foolishly for a second and pays for it dearly because The Rock becomes undazed in this time, grabs Ted from his waist and chucks him over the top rope sending him crashing to the floor on the outside.
[Michael Cole] Ataboy, Rock!
[JR] Ted took a nasty spill to the floor below, but compared to what these two have done to one another the entire duration of this match, I doubt we'll see Ted out for long because of it.
[King] After enduring a no disqualification match, and a steel cage match, it's almost shocking to see them now, both injured, exhausted, weakened, or whatever you words you wanna use to describe the situation, but to see them still fighting as if nothing can keep either man down really just shows their burning desire to not only win this series of matches, but to do as much as they psychically can to hurt and mane one other.
Ted lies on the floor holding his arm, the referee starts to do the ten count, but The Rock drops down to the mat rolling out of the ring, then pulls Ted up yelling out "The Rock's not finished!" before pulling Ted over the announcer's table and proceeds to bounce his bloody and sweaty face off the exposed table, then does it again, look at him, looks out into the booing crowd, then does it a third time before letting loose of his grip over him, which causes Ted to drop down to his knees, and falls face and arms first against the table exhausted and beat up. He notices a set of wires sticking out of the table from when he stripped it down earlier in the night, and hatches a sickening idea, as Ted still lies against the table, Rock had ripped them off of the table and suddenly wraps the wires around Ted's throat and pulls back viciously choking him!
[JR] That's not what those are for!
[Michael Cole] It's what they're for now!
[King] Ted's turning blue right before our very eyes!
He continues the vicious tactic, disapproving boos continue to rein in, Ted's becoming lifeless, his face is discolored, and The Rock's showing no sign of letting up anytime soon. That is however until one fan takes action into their own hands by throwing their already bitten into hotdog at him. Rock seems caught off guard, he looses his grip, looks down confused as hell, had he really just had a hot dog of all things thrown at him?! Ted falls to the floor motionless and the referee begins to reluctantly count...
1....
While The Rock walks over to the fans, who appears to be a huge Ted DiBiase fan as he's wearing his t-shirt and his friend beside him is holding a rather creative and nicely made DiBiase Posse fan sign.
2.....
He finally reaches the fan, who trash talks The Rock, Rock then laughs in his face, notices his cup of beer on the top of the barricade then swipes it away! "Don't mind if The Rock does!" he then chugs it right in front of the fan, lets out a satisfied sigh, then crumples up the cup and throws it right in the fan's face.
3.......
Clearly he takes amusement in picking at not only Ted but his fans as well. The fans seems pissed off shouting you can't do that at him. Only for Rock to respond by yelling out "The Rock can do anything he wants!" the fan responds saying No you can't!
4........
Rock then smiles shouting out "Yes The Rock can! Do you see your little hero over there?! He's done! Finished! The Rock has this in the bag just like he has your mother awaiting him back at the hotel!"
[JR] The Rock's not going to win over any fans with that attitude!
[Michael Cole] Who cares?! This referee needs to count faster!
[King] He's counting at a fine pace, Cole.
[Michael Cole] Whatever, I just wanna have The Rock's hand raised and get this match over with. It's just getting sad now seeing The Rock destroy him in every way.
5......
Rock finishes messing with the members of Ted's DiBiase Posse, Ted's trying to pull himself up and he sees it, he then runs over towards him with a punt to the ribs in mind...But just as he's about to make contact, Ted falls back getting out of the way just in time, then jumps to his feet and as The Rock turns around Ted charges at him, throwing out his knee, and connecting with a sickening sounding Busaiku knee on the outside! Ted doesn't take much time to get up, his emotions are preventing him from feeling anything and he's going to take well advantage of this, he grabs a chair from under the ring apron, then as Rock gets to his hands and knees on the floor, trying to get up, Ted strikes him in the back with the chair, he collapses to the floor, Ted drops the chair down placing it perfectly into whatever position he has in mind...Pulls Rock up with a front head lock, hooking his head tightly as he points his skull over the chair, attempts to spike him with a DDT, but Rock fights him with clubbing blows, then a knee to the gut which broke his hold, throws Ted's arm over his shoulder, perhaps looking for a Rock Bottom through the announce table, but Ted shows just as much fight as The Rock had by clubbing him desperately with hard elbow shots to the side of his skull, ducks under his arm hooking him for perhaps Dream Street, but The Rock stomps on his foot breaking the hold, hooks hold of his body for a belly to belly, but Ted responds by stomping on his foot as hard as he could, then as Rock's grip is broken, Ted then tries to bounce his skull off the commentary table, but Rock places his hands on the table preventing it, elbows Ted in the ribs, smacks his skull off the table instead, then grabs the steel steps while Ted's current indisposed and places them right in front of the table.
[JR] I've got a bad feeling about this...
[Michael Cole] The Rock's about to end this match! Move out of the way, JR! Make way for greatness!
[King] Oh will you get off The Rock's jock, Cole. You're supposed to commentate not cheer lead.
Rock takes his time to make sure they're on point with what he has planned, then grabs Ted by his hair, pulls him over the the steps almost dragging him. Then as they reach the steps he climbs up them while bringing Ted with him, Cole, King, and JR all scatter back knowing this table's going to be shattered with a body any minute now...Rock pulls Ted up, throws his arm over his shoulder, attempts to lift him for the Rock Bottom, Ted however suddenly finds life, grabs his arm twisting it around The Rock applying The Million Dollar Dream! The fans pop as they should, Ted's somehow found a way to avoid the dangerous situation, lifts Rock up, but his arm gives way, and Rock manages to scurry off of the steps and to the floor while Ted holds his arm in pain, the punishment it took in that cage match is catching up to him and have spoiled his plans for breaking this table with his famous finishing maneuver. Rock notices Ted's weakened, if he can just send Ted through that table he's sure he'll have this match won...He takes a step back, looks at his opponent starting to stand back up fully, then runs in the direction of the steps picking up speed, runs up the steps now, he jumps off the steps perhaps going for one of his famous float over ddt's...But Ted catches him just as he tried, and as The Rock is helpless caught in mid air for a split second, Ted side steps off the steps drops down onto the table with a modified version of his sit out sky high spinebuster sending them both crashing through the table!
[Michael Cole] OH MY!
[King] Talk about risking life and limb to come out the winner!
[JR] Both men are laid out right in front of us! Are we going to see a tie?! They're not moving!
A huge "HOLY SHIT!" chant sounds throughout the crowd, both Ted and Rock lay flat on the the remains of what used to the announcer's table, the referee looks down at both men then begins to count...
1.....
2.....
3........
4..........
5..............
6.................
7...................
Both begin to stir as they hear the seventh count yelled from the referee, Ted tries to grab onto the barricade
8......................
He successfully pulls himself up while The Rock still isn't to his feet.
[JR] This could be it! Ted's up but The Rock's not!
[Michael Cole] C'mon Rock!
[King] What are you doing, Cole?!
We see Cole walking over to The Rock, who uses Cole to start to pull himself up. The fans near them boo and jeer Cole, Rock stretches Cole's shirt but he doesn't seem to mind...

The Rock springs up to his feet still gripping Cole's shirt as he's barely on his feet. Cole then rolls his chair over towards him, sits him down, then pours water on him to get him back into the match.
[Michael Cole] You got this, Rock! Ted's got a temper, exploit that, spit in his face, talk about Maryse, bring up his pathetic legend of a father, anything! He'll snap and that's when you strike!
He's heard shouting out tactics, but little does Cole know, Ted's right behind him...
[Michael Cole] He's nothing more than a huge wanna be, and so you need to show him just why they call you The Great One!
Ted then pushes Cole out of the way, and like Michael Cole would, he dramatically falls to the floor complaining of injury. That's when Ted grabs the chair The Rock's in spins it round and round, and each time it spins back around towards Ted he connects with hard right hands. The chair stops spinning, Ted gets behind it, perhaps looking to use this chair in ways it was never meant to be used, then gripping the back of it, Ted charges heading towards the barricade with The Rock helpless in the chair. Just as they reach the barricade, Rock kicks his feet out stopping contact, then pushes off the barricade spinning around and nailing Ted right in the face with boot feet before jumping out of the seat and taking Ted down with a hard shoulder block.
[Michael Cole] Can you believe him?! He put his hands on me! Who the hell does Ted DiBiase think he is? I was minding my own business, calling this match, and he has the nerve to push me down? What a big bully! I have mind to go straight to Vickie right now! I'm sick of Ted being reckless and having no regard for anyone!
[JR] Minding your own business? Cole, you were trash talking about Ted while trying to help The Rock...
[Michael Cole] I did nothing of the sort! I making sure he was okay, that he could continue, that's all! Not once did I ever say one bad thing about Ted.
[King] You jackass...
[Michael Cole] What?
[King] Your headset was still on, wasn't it?
[Michael Cole] ....
[JR] Anyways, this Last Man Standing match is absolutely insane! Neither man will give up, this is truly a fanatic way to kick off our biggest pay-per-view event of the year.
Rock grabs the chair that was never used earlier in the match, tosses it into the ring, then grabs Ted by the hem of his trunks and throws him into the ring under the bottom rope. He slides in after him, grabs the chair, lifts it up above his head, swings downwards toward Ted, but he rolls out of the way and the vibration of the steel meeting the mat sends the chair out of his hands and Ted gets up to his feet as The Rock holds his hands momentarily in pain. Pissed off, The Rock runs towards Ted in a blind rage and is caught off guard as Ted hits the mat, top rope in hand, pulling it down as The Rock flies over out onto the floor below at ramp side! He pulls himself up to his feet, looks out at The Rock starting to get up, looks into the crowd, hears the screams of his name, he looks on the opposite side of the ring, knows he shouldn't do what he's about to try, but he's going to anyways...With a quick pointing motion at The Rock on the outside, Ted raises his fist up, shakes it feeling fired up...Then Ted runs off the ropes on the other side of the ring, back to where he was, leaping through the ropes with the momentum gained, then as The Rock stood he's taken back down by a literal suicide dive from Ted DiBiase sending the fans into a frenzy like no other!
[JR] This man will do anything to keep The Rock down!
[Michael Cole] He's stupid that's what he is! He's already got a bum arm, a tweaked ankle from this past week which has well been exploited, and he's a bloody mess! What an idiot!
[King] I disagree, I think it shows the lengths Ted will go through to not only entertain his fans, but do damage to his rival too. He's got a lot of heart, we can never deny Ted that, he never gives up, and that's why these fans are such big fans of him.
[JR] Couldn't agree more. It's not wise to risk your life with a dive through the ropes, anything can happen at that instant, but he took Rock down and now both are being counted so we'll see what happens.
The referee has long exited the ring, he looks at both men down, then begins to count...
1......
2...............
3..................
4.....................
5.......................
Both Ted and Rock start to use the steel barricade near them for the leverage that they need to be able to stand up to break this count.
6..........................
Almost on their feet they both struggle, Ted's dealing with a number of lingering injuries while The Rock's clearly got enough aches of his own.
7..................................
Just as he's about to say 8, they pull themselves up to their feet, and instantly without even a break, they're back on one another firing away with a war of fists. Neither man shows signs of stopping, they get hit by the other then bounce back with a connecting punch of their own, it's as if they're immune to simple punches after everything they're been through through in three stages of literal hell. Rock nails a hard shot, Ted staggers back, then forward with one of his own knocking Rock backwards who comes back like a house of fire with three connecting shots in a row! Rock tries to grab hold of Ted, perhaps looking for a suplex on the steel plate of the ramp, but Ted's fight is not over, as quick as he's lifted off the floor, he propels himself over The Rock and right behind! He then hooks The Rock, lifts him up with a high angle back suplex in mind but The Rock spins in mid air and lands on his feet behind Ted, Ted spins around and is quickly met with a huge belly to belly suplex as he flies through the air and collides with the steel ramp! And the count begins...
1......
2............
The Rock smiles knowing this is it
3.............
4...............
5................
6....................
But Ted rolls over onto his hands and knees, and just before the referee can utter the start of seven, DiBiase is up and on his feet!
[King] Ted's once again up on his feet, can anything keep him down?!
[JR] It doesn't seem like anything The Rock can do will. He's choked him, he's targeted limb after limb, Ted's heart is just too strong for his own good. And that may be what he needs to come out victorious here tonight.
[Michael Cole] Or it'll be his undoing. The human body can only take so much punishment!
The Rock's curising at Ted, not understanding why nothing he can do will keep him down for the count of ten, then tries to punch him, but Ted blocks it then grabs Rock by his arm and throws him into the barricade. Fans scream, as The Rock's back meets steel, but Ted doesn't stop there. He walks back over to the ring arena grabbing the steel steps, grunts as he raises them up, then drops them down near the ring apron. DiBiase then makes his way over to The Rock, drags him by his arms towards the steps, pulls him over them, hunching him directly over the steps, while Ted steps back looking at the motionless Rock. Jumps in place, shaking his arms out, feeling the emotion of the fans going through him, they know he's got something sick planned and they wanna see it! Ted then backs up, runs forward, jumps up in the air as he approaches the prime for the taking Rock, hooks hold of his head, floats over him as such and spikes him right on the steps with a unique float over DDT. Another fitting "HOLY SHIT!" chant starts up, as The Rock slowly slides off the steps and onto his back, he's out cold and it looks like Ted's got this match won!
The referee almost can't believe the lengths Ted went to knock The Rock out, but as he's supposed to he begins to count...
1......
2...........
[JR] What a DDT!!
[Michael Cole] Why isn't The Rock moving?!
[King] Because his head just met solid steel and he's out like a light!
[JR] This has gotta be it...There's just no way he'll come to before a count of ten, I can't believe it...Ted's hatred for The Rock just fueled a possible second victory here tonight.
3......
4................
5.............................
[JR] Folks, The Rock still hasn't moved, I think Ted's done it!
[King] It wasn't pretty but it never is in a match like this.
[Michael Cole] This can't be it! The Rock said he would win!
[JR] He might've thought that, but after his head has endured pure hell in many shapes and forms tonight, that DDT appeared to be last thing his noggin could stand!
[King] They've both endured pure hell, but that comes with a match like three stages of hell. It seems like it's finally over though.
6.......
Ted falls back against the barricade, the fans patting him on the back, they're screaming in excitement as they have been since this match began, and the referee's count rolls on...
7.............
8....................
DiBiase breathes heavy, he's exhausted, he's in more pain than perhaps he's ever been, but it'll all be worth it once that referee raises his hand up...
9...............................
But The Rock's eyes open, he notices the count is a split second away from him losing, and despite being a bloody mess, he pulls himself up using the ring apron getting to his feet barely just as the referee had raised his hand up to count the final count! The fan's can't believe it, and neither can Ted!
[JR] He's up!
[Michael Cole] I knew he could do it!
[King] How will this match ever end? Neither will stay down for a count of ten! Their pride won't let them!
Letting his frustrations get the better of him, Ted charges at The Rock, but he sees him coming, bends down propelling Ted up in the air, and a sickening thud as he's back body dropped right on the very same steps he just spiked The Rock's bloody skull off of! Silence fills the arena, they can't believe the tide just turned so quickly, he bridges off the steps in pain holding his back dearly, and The Rock takes this time to catch his breath, before grabbing Ted by his tights, and hurling him under the bottom rope and back into the ring. He takes a moment to tell off the fans, saying Ted's done for pissing off a large number of them before casually making his way under the bottom rope after him and standing tall as he looks down at his former friend.
ZANDERS
The Rock circles Ted, with the sound of pure hatred ringing through his ears, "Rocky sucks" "Rocky Quit" and "Lets go Ted!" All drowning out the arena, but The Rock, he doesn't hear any of it, he phases it all out, this is his moment, Ted begins to get groggy, The Rock bounces around him, anticipating his next move, waiting, ready to strike, Ted gets to his feet and in a daze he turns around right into a HUGE Rock Bottom! The ref begins to count
1..............
[JR] This doesn't look good folks, the end is in the air.....
[Michael Cole] I can taste it! It's time!
[King] Come on Ted!
3...............
[The Rock] Stay down you son of a bitch!
4...............
Ted begins to stir, he rolls over to the side of the ring, grabbing the ropes.....
6...............
[Michael Cole] NO! Don't get up!
7.........................
Regardless of what Michael Cole wants Ted uses the ropes to pull himself up from that devastating Rock Bottom! The Rock can't believe it, he spits on the floor and stands directly behind Ted DiBiase, Dibiase turns and the last thing he see's is The Rock flipping him the bird before nailing him with a SECOND Rock Bottom! The ref begins to count!
1....................
[The Rock] NOW STAY DOWN! The Rock will not stop until you can't breathe! So you can lie there and it'll be all over! The Rock will be announced the winner and you can go back to mediocrity where you belong! You tried your best shot at playing in the big leagues and you failed! Now stay down before The Rock makes sure you never get back up again!
The refs count reaches 5...............
[King] Come on Ted! Not like this! You can pull through!
[JR] GET UP SON! YOU CAN DO THIS!
7......................
Ted gets onto all fours, struggling greatly but slowly he rises to one knee, then eventually to both feet, Ted stands up tall, clearly in pain, feeling the effects from both Rock Bottoms, The Rock walks up to him, face to face, The Rock slaps him hard, the sound can be heard throughout the arena as Ted stumbles back a few paces, the crowd are absolutely rabid, throwing everything into the ring at The Rock, cups and merchandise bouncing off of him, but he pays it no attention as Ted turns back around and spits right in his face! The Rock lets a wash of anger pour over his face as he steps forward and levels Ted with a THIRD Rock Bottom! The Ref begins to count.....
1....................
[JR] There's just no way Teds gonna get back up from that......
2.....................
[JR] You fought hard kid, there's no shame in losing to The Rock.
3.........................
[Michael Cole] What are you talking about JR, laugh at this man! He actually thought he could do it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
[King] Shut the hell up Cole!
6...........................
But unbelievably, even earlier than the last two Rock Bottoms, Ted manages to get a burst of life back, he slowly but surely lifts himself onto all fours and eventually onto both knees......
8.......................
Ted hears the count and with an agonizing grunt he lifts himself up off of the mat and back onto two feet! This is unbelievable! The Rock looks completely shocked as the crowd erupts into a HUGE frenzy, what does he have to do to put this man away? The Rock snaps and in a fit of rage he picks up the chair that was lying in the ring from just moments ago! Ted screams at The Rock.....
[Ted DiBiase] Take your best shot! You'll never keep me down!
[The Rock] Let The Rock just see about that!
With that, The Rock lunges forward and with a huge swing he cracks Ted across the skull with the steel chair! However to the surprise of everyone in the arena, Ted doesn't fall! He stays on his feet, determined! But The Rock swings again! In a sickening display of disregard for human health! BUT STILL TED DOESN'T FALL! The Rock takes a third swing that folds the chair over Teds skull! Ted stumbles backwards and falls down to one knee! The Rock then backs up a few steps before running forward and swinging the chair at an angle, smashing it squarely across the face of Ted! He falls onto his back in a heap but The Rock is like a man possessed and is not finished let, He lifts the chair high above his head and brings it down across Teds face! And again! And Again! And Again! And Again! Ted is completely lifeless, he isn't moving a muscle as The ref begins to count and a deathly silence falls over the arena.........
1.......
[The Rock] That's it! You could have just tucked your tail between your legs and went home but no! You made The Rock do this!
2...........
[JR] I hate to say it, but this match is done.
3................
[Michael Cole] The Rock hasn't even broken a sweat!
4.................
[King] Are you kidding! This has been a war!
5...................
[JR] I hope this young man is okay, he's a fighter till the end, a brave warrior, no one can take that away from him!
6.................
[Michael Cole] No one except The Rock! Haha!
7...............
[King] He's still not moving, it's hopeless.
8...............
The crowd still remain silent as The Rock stands over Ted in the ring, bloody chair in hand....
9.................
The Rock drops the chair, he knows it's over, he takes one last look into the sea of silent fans, his face completely serious, awaiting the referee's final call....
.................10!
It's all over!
[Justin Roberts] Ladies and Gentlemen here is your winner........The Rock!
The boo's from this sold out Final Stand crowd damn near drown out The Rocks theme music, EMT's and Medics rush to the ring to check on Ted, they bypass The Rock and gather round him, The Rock just smiles and takes to the top rope to taunt, he stand high on the turnbuckle with his arm raised to the heavens only gaining more boo's than anyone ever thought possible! He takes down his arm and stares into the hateful crowd once more....
He wanders over to the side of the ring, walking past Ted and requests a microphone.....One is handed to him immediately and he lifts it to talk....
[The Rock] What's the matter Houston? You seem upset? C'mon, lets be adults for just a minute, what did you actually think was going to happen? Did you think that Ted DiBiase was gonna be your knight in shining Armour, did you think that little boy from Mississippi was gonna overcome all of the odds and beat the big bad wolf? Well let The Rock make something clear, not just for you people here tonight but for everyone in the back! The Rock is the absolute best this company has to offer! Bar none! So you think you have what it takes to step up and beat The Great One? You think you're better than this million dollar bitch? Well The Rock says this!
[The Rock] Just Bring It!
With that, The Rock drops the mic to an insane amount of heat, he walks over to the people tending on Ted and simply smirks before exiting through the middle rope and walking up the ramp to tremendous boo's, fans still throwing objects at him the whole way.....
[JR] Strong words from The Rock there folks but love him or hate him, he's right, he came here tonight and did exactly what he said he would and that is beat Ted DiBiase...
[Michael Cole] Was there ever really any doubt?
[King] Of course there was, In fact, at more times during the match than not I thought Ted was gonna win this one, he put up a terrific fight and just came out short, he surprised everyone here tonight, including The Rock whether he'd admit it or not with how resilient he was, I hope he makes a quick recovery and is back on Redemption next week....
[JR] Ahmen to that King, but don't look ahead too much, this night hasn't finished, hell, it's only just begun! This was the first contest of the night and we still have a hell of a show coming up right after this video....
XWL's Biggest show of the year then cuts to a hype video for the ongoing rivalry between World Heavyweight Champion Wade Barrett and challenger Justin Gabriel.....

*A familiar theme hits from the speakers that surprises the fans. It's Sheamus!*
*The crowd are on their feet as Sheamus emerges from the back to a huge reaction from all of his fans.*
*Sheamus beats his chest three times and throws his arms out as he lets out a yell, showing his excitement to all of the fans in attendance.*
*Now making his way down the ramp, Sheamus is smiling at and high fiving his fans in the front row as they cheer and chant in excitement to see why the Celtic Warrior is here.*
*As he approaches the ring, Sheamus runs up the steps at ringside and storms onto the ring apron with a burst of energy. He stands in the middle of the ring apron and throws his arms out once again, getting the fans as excited as he can.*
*After stepping between the ropes, Sheamus is now in the ring and walks around, taking in all the cheers that are coming from his fans in the crowd. He walks over towards the announce table and takes a microphone from the ring announcer. Still seemingly excited, Sheamus raises the microphone to his mouth and begins to speak.*
[Sheamus] Weren't expecting me tonight, were ya? Ladies and gentlemen, what's the craic!? The names Sheamus. I'm sure alot of you know who I am, but unfortunately too many people don't know who I am. Well I'm back here in XWL tonight after not being around for a week or two, and I'm not goin' anywhere again. I had some problems not too long ago, you didn't see much of me. I'd come back every other week, I'd say how I was gonna beat everyone and win titles, enough of that. I was at a bad stage of my career, I was goin' nowhere anytime soon. So what d'ya think I did? Did I take some steroids, hit the gym, and assume everything was gonna be fine? No I didn't. Ya' wanna' know what I did? I went back to me homeland of Ireland. I connected with my roots. I re-discovered exactly why I got into wrestling.
[Sheamus] First stop, Dublin Ireland. Born and raised in the northside of Dublin, I wasn't exactly popular. As a young fella, I was bullied for being short, chubby, and ginger. Look at me now, I'm big, I'm strong, I'm an XWL superstar, and I spend every minute of my professional life either in this ring working my arse off, or out there with you fans doing my best to give you what you want. I'm a part of the new era in professional wrestling, the new breed. The young stars of XWL are making their mark, and it's about time that I got back to what I came here to do. Entertain you all, beat people like they've never been beaten before.. and of course every man's goal.. to hold the World Heavyweight Championship!
[Sheamus] Of course after visitin' the ma and da, there was another place that meant to world to me. The place where my career really started to take off, IWW.. Irish Whip Wrestling in Dublin. As much as he mighn't like to admit that it's where he got his first boost, one of the men I trained with and became a star with is your very own World Champion, Wade Barrett. Being from England himself, Wade came over to Ireland to learn how to fight like only a true Paddy could. Nobody can brawl, nobody can take damage and get back to his feet, like The Celtic Warrior can. It's in me blood. My ancestors were fighters, warriors, and so am I.
[Sheamus] I won't drag this out all night long, I'm a man of action, not words. I'm a simple man. But I'm not the person to mess with if you're lookin' for a fight. I'll kick your arse up and down the stage, then I'll kick your teeth down your own throat without thinking twice.
[Sheamus] Aggressive? 'Course I am, I'm the Celtic warrior! So I'll leave 'ya with this.. mess with me if you feel man enough, but don't blame me when I kick ya' into next week. Whether you're American, Japanese, European, British, hell even a fellow Irishman.. You won't stand in my path and step off it in the same condition. Sheamus O'Shaunessy is ainm dom, and I'll show you exactly why they used to call me the S.O.S. But as you already know, I'll show you all exactly what I mean over the next few weeks when I take my place back. So Wade, watch out fella, just like the good ol' days, I'm gonna get ya. And you'll regret ever winning that title. For me fans and all of those who stood by me, what happens next.. this is for you.
*Sheamus drops his microphone and turns to walk away. Approaching the ring ropes, he steps one foot out onto the apron and leans downwards to step out of the ring. Just before he completely exits the ring, Sheamus stops and gets back inside. He smiles, before his facial expression turns completely blank. Picking back up the microphone, Sheamus seems to have an almost angry look on his face.*
[Sheamus] Oh you think I'm finished? I've only just started. I'm not out here tonight to tell you some sob story. I came out and I shared the story of the making of the Celtic Warrior, and I'm not done being the Celtic Warrior yet, not even nearly. You see a true Celtic Warrior doesn't sympathise. I'm DONE looking for your approval, because I don't NEED your approval, I don't WANT your approval. I got where I am all by myself, with my hard work, my sweat, my tears, and my blood. You 'fans' don't respect me, you don't give me the credit that I deserve. Well guess what, I don't want your respect and I don't need your credit. I've been at the bottom, and I've been at the top, and now where am I? Where am I since I tried to do things for YOU? I'm nowhere! I've gotten absolutely nowhere and that is YOUR fault!
[Sheamus] Tonight is Final Stand, a tradition now in XWL. Last year at Final Stand, I was at the top of my game, on top of the world. This year, I'm not even booked in a damn match? Are you joking me? Are you seriously joking? I AM XWL.. or atleast.. I was XWL. Well like I said, it's time to reclaim my throne, because that world title will be wrapped around my waist. I'm not like any of the people in the back. I'm not going to claim that it's my 'destiny' or that it's 'inevitable' because I'm doing it for the fans. I'm going to be champion because I win. Because I hurt people. Because it's in my blood.
[Sheamus] The people that said I'd never make it in wrestling, where are they now? I don't know, I don't care. NOBODY knows, because they don't mean anything. Me.. I'm a big deal. Infact, while they're collecting bins and going to dead end office jobs, I'm changing not only history.. but I'm changing Ireland. I'm fed up of people stereotyping my country, everything that I know. I'm proving day in and day out that the Irish aren't just a bunch of drunks, paddys, and leprechauns. I'm showing that not all Irish traditions are dead, and what proves that.. is me standing right here. I come from a long bloodline of fighters, warriors, pure brutes. I'm not just Irish, I'm not just a wrestler, I'm a generation. I represent the men back home, back in a true country.
[Sheamus] Boo'ing me now? Good. Great. It's nice to see things are back to the way they should be. Me, showing all of you that you can NEVER.. beat.. the Irish. So now I really leave you, in the style of MY people. Feel free to join in.
*Now smirking at the fans, Sheamus begins a chant of his own, but instead of joining in, the crowd boo and jeer in disapproval as over and over, Sheamus chants by himself.*
[Sheamus] YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE IRISH!
YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE IRISH!
YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE IRISH!
YOU'LL NEVER BEAT THE IRISH!
*Sheamus throws his microphone on the ground and jogs to the turnbuckle. As he climbs to the second rope, he rips his shirt off in a burst of aggression. He beats his chest once again and throws his arms out to a huge sea of boo's by the fans, hating Sheamus and his words.*
*The camera zooms into Sheamus' face to show him still smirking, enjoying the fan's bad reaction and looking forward to what's next. XWL cuts to a commercial break as Sheamus makes his way back to the backstage area.*

As Final Stand continues we fade out to a video package taken hours before the show with John Cena sitting in the empty arena
John Cena Tonight is the biggest night of my career. In just a few hours time this arena will be filled with people and XWL will be live across the world in pay per view. Tonight I go one on one with Shawn Michaels for the united States title and also I get the chance to walk out with a guaranteed title match at any title I want at any show of my choosing when I get the chance to become this years Mr Money in the bank. I have never had a title run since been in XWL and I would love all that to chance tonight. I intend to fight like I have never fought before and I do want to give Shawn the toughest match of his career when I take away what is his. The United States Championship. Like I’ve been saying for weeks now every since I ended my feud with Dwayne, after Final Stand the champ will be here again. It’s been fair too long since I’ve had a title and I do not intend to go another week longer without that title. After months of hard work going against the likes of Cody Rhodes and The Rock I feel I have earned the chance to fight for this title.
John Cena The week after Over the limit I gave a statement to Shawn that until he beats me he will not be a true defending champion. He went on and on about how he beat Chris Jericho, Kevin Steen, Curt Hawkins and how he was on the biggest winning streak of his life. He forgot to include one match were I pinned him and picked up the confidence I needed to go on and fight for that title because now I have beat him in a non title match I know I can do it for the title. Going against Shawn will be tough, he’s a great competitor but the only problem is he has a lousy attitude, luckily for me I know just the cure for a lousy attitude and that can only involve a certain attitude adjustment given personally by the leader of the CeNation himself. Shawn can strike that sweet chin music out of anywhere and that is something I am going to need to be aware off but I know I have been in the ring with people better than him and I will go against people in the future who are better than him. I am just going to have to make sure I go in with the right mindset and do everything I can to become the United States title.
John Cena Just a few weeks ago Shawn was mocking my believes. He didn’t like how I go about doing my business but the fact is noone ever does like how John Cena does business. Hustle Loyalty Respect, and Rise Above Hate. Both of those sentences mean so much just not to be but to society. Let me quickly break it down while we have the time. You have to hustle, in order to achieve and strive in this crazy world of professional wrestling. If you want to get anywhere you need to hustle and work your way to get to it. Loyalty, you need to show loyalty to superstars and if they are true friends they will show loyalty back and have your back when you need it. Just look at Ted for example, I was loyal to him and I have his back and he had mine at Over the limit against Dwayne. Respect, I show respect to anyone I step inside the ring with and every single fan who’ll be sat where I am at the moment or watching on the TV. Even if someone attacked me from behind when we were in that ring I would respect what they could do and I would take them seriously. It’s something I’ve always done and something I am not going to stop doing.
John Cena Rise above hate, people need to rise above any hate in their lives because it always get’s better. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel and for this man I have risen about the hate given to me by Cody, whether it’s him attacking me in the ring with a cheap shot or smashing my head through a car window, I only did my fighting in that ring or if it was by Dwayne who attacked me and put me through hell for a couple of months of my career. I sucked it up and left my fighting to the ring and now look what has happened, both of them have passed and moved back over to breakdown and even if I am in the same arena they know I mean business and keep away. Now I have the chance to become United States Champion and Mr Money in the Bank. That is my light at the end of my tunnel and this is what I am striving to achieve.
John Cena Now moving on to the 6 man money in the bank. I am going against 5 other tough men all capable of walking out with that briefcase. I am going to be tired from two matches but I will fight and give it my all and try to win. I have wanted to be a world champion here for a long time but I kept telling myself a United States title run would be better first so I could prove to everyone I was a fighting champion and I deserved to be up their fighting with the likes of Ted, Wade, Justin, Edge, Dwayne hell even Cody Rhodes. Been at the top of the food chain is something I will do and if it happens in 2012 or 2040 it dosent really matter. I have never had the opportunity to go for world title gold and at Final Stand I might be able to fufill both dreams and be the first man to hold the United States title and the World heavyweight title at the same time and that would be something I would take as a great honour…Whatever happens, Final Stand will be a place where history is made. Just wait and see.
The camera slowly fades out with Cena looking into the empty ring…

Gotta be awkward for Cena realizing he's at the wrong arena....

*As Final Stand IV continues the cameras switch to a black screen, then after a few seconds a graphic appears on the screen with backing music*
*As the graphic fades out along with the theme, the camera switches Zack Ryder stood in front of a beige wall*
Zack Ryder: Thank you, thank you, and welcome to the return edition of Z! True Long Island Story in the XWL coming to you LIVE backstage at the Reliant Stadium, the home of Final Stand IV, and I'm your host the XWL *Zack points to his championship after saying each word*Internet champion! Long Island Iced Z! Zack Ryder!
*As Zack finishes talking, a graphic swipes in from the bottom left corner to cover the entire screen*
*Then after a few seconds the graphic swipes back down into the bottom left corner and off the screen, as a still from the previous week is displayed on the screen, as the sound of a camera going off plays*
*Then after a few more seconds the still swipes off the screen back to Zack Ryder in front of the beige wall*
Zack Ryder: Zack Ryder equals ratings? That's flattering, but I need to be on the show to equal ratings, a more appropriate sign would of been "No Ryder = Slightly lower ratings". I guess they have a point, that's why XWL hasn't been the same for a while. They said it was Ted Dibiase's fault, now Ted's a good broski so I knew it wasn't all his fault the ratings have plummeted recently and I was right, it turns out all they need is some Long Island Iced Z to put the ratings through the roof, and now that I'm back the Ryder Revolution can begin once again.
*As Ryder once again finishes speaking, another graphic swipes onto the screen*
*Then another graphic swipes onto the screen displaying a tweet from Mike Chiapetta which Zack Ryder reads as a voiceover reading "@ZackRyder isn't on the card for #FinalStand4, @uhohitsthebigo can't get any dates and I'm still sleeping on a fold away bed #AreYouSeriousBro?" then the graphics swipe off the screen back to Zack Ryder*
Zack Ryder: Now I know what you're all thinking. Zack Ryder is back in the XWL? Are you serious bro? Well Broski's I am serious, after a month without a mention of Zack Ryder on XWL broadcasting, The Long Island Iced Z is back for good, and I know what you're wondering now. Where have I been? Well since The Rock was too busy to film his summer blockbuster this year, guess who filled in for him. That's right Zack Ryder is making his HollyWOO WOO WOOd debut this summer in G.I. Bro: Retaliation. Not to brag or anything but it's already got some great reviews, Mike Chiapetta gave it five stars! And Scott Stanford said I deserve an Oscar in the category Best Lead Broski. Originally I was slated to have a small role in Step Up 4 but they pulled out after none of the cast could keep up with me on the dance floor. SIIIIIICK!
*Quickly the camera cuts to a pre-recorded clip off Zack fist pumping under strobe lightning for a few seconds, then switching back to the live feed of Zack*
Zack Ryder: Ever since I finished filming my movie all the babes have wanted to fist pump with me all night long, from the very second I stepped into this arena tonight I haven't had a moment to myself, just take a look!
*The camera cuts to earlier in the day, as Eve's talking to someone backstage, as Zack talks up to her*
Zack Ryder: Hey Eve, it's me, Zack! I'm back Bro!
Eve Torres: Oh hey, how's it going?
Zack Ryder: Great, bro. I've finished making my movie and now I'm back, ready to get back into the ring and I'm not even booked? Can you believe that?
Eve Torres: Come on, don't worry about it, they clearly didn't know you were coming back yet.
Zack Ryder: Yeah I guess so, I just really wanted to come here to Final Stand 4, in front of over 70,000 people, and fist pump someone's face.
Eve Torres: Well Zack, next week when you return to the ring it will just make it all the more special when you get to fist pump someone's face.
Zack Ryder: Yeah, you know it!
*As Zack pauses for a moment he removes his glasses*
Zack Ryder: But hey what about you though? Miss Money in the Bank later tonight that's awesome! Good luck out there.
Eve Torres: Thanks Zack, it's a pretty big match, but if I walk out with that briefcase it will worth it.
Zack Ryder: Don't sweat it Eve, I'm sure you have this one in the bag, and after we should go out a celebrate Houston style. Woo Woo Woo!
Eve Torres: Yeah, we'll see. Hey I've got to go get ready for tonight, I'll talk to you later, it was good to catch up though.
*As Eve walks off, Zack turns to Chiapetta behind the camera and starts talking to him*
Zack Ryder: Hey Bro? Did you see that? Eve Torres was on my show! She was totally in to me too, bro.
*Then coming from the camera's left an elderly women begins to talk*
???: I know someone that's into you.
*As the camera pans out to reveals the old lady to be Mae Young, as Zack chuckles, as Mae turns to the camera as they begin to fist pump*
Zack Ryder: Woo Woo Woo!
*As Zack finishes fist pumping, Zack walks off the camera and Chiapetta follows him*
Zack Ryder: Mae Young’s on my show too Bro!
*As the scene ends the camera swipes back to the live feed*
Zack Ryder: It's no secret that my dad loves pro wrestling and is my biggest fan, but since I went on my hiatus he's needed a new favourite superstar, which is why it pained me to see this when I went to visit him last week.
*As Zack finishes speaking, another clip swipes onto the screen, as Zack approaches his Dad in his garden in Long Island, as he see's him stood back to him holding up an old Dolph Ziggler t-shirt*
Zack Ryder: Hey Dad! Dad! I'm coming back to the XWL! Can you believe that Dad! Dad! Why aren't you listening to me Dad? Is that a Dolph Ziggler shirt Dad? What are you doing? Are you serious bro?!
*Completely ignoring Zack, Zack's Dad begins to talk to the t-shirt he has aloft in the air*
Zack's Dad: What a shirt, what a talent, what a champion, the greatest champion in history...
*Suddenly the clip shots, as Zack begins shouting, and the clip swipes back off the screen to Zack in the arena clearly upset at his Dad's betrayal*
Zack Ryder: Alright! Just cut already! Can you believe that broski's? My own dad, a Dolph Ziggler fan? The man I defeated at Over the Limit? The Intercontinental champion? I can't believe it, how can my own dad betray me like that?..
*As Zack rambles on Chiapetta(who's off screen) murmurs something to Zack*
Zack Ryder: What do you mean that's not the whole clip? I was there bro! I know what happened.
*Chiapetta then murmur's something else, which annoys Zack, as he undermines his authority on his own show*
Zack Ryder: I'm trying to provide some commentary, bro! You know what, never mind, just roll the rest of the clip.
*As the clip in a freeze frame swipes back onto the screen, it then begins to play again, focused on Zack's Dad*
*As Zack's Dad throw's Dolph's t-shirt onto the ground, he begins talking again*
Zack's Dad: He's got nothing on him, I don't need this t-shirt anymore.
*Zack's Dad then turns around to see the camera, revealing him wearing a Zack Ryder t-shirt and glasses*
Zack's Dad: I'm a broski!
*As Zack looks at his Dad, his previous upset tone completely disappears, and is replaced by an ecstatic one, as Zack's blatantly excited to see his Dad support him*
Zack Ryder: Dad! Are you serious Dad?
*Zack's Dad whilst smiling at the camera begins to fist pump whilst calmly talking*
Zack's Dad: Woo woo woo, you know it!
*As the shot switches back to the live feed, Zack's jumping up and down shouting excitedly*
Zack Ryder: That's right, my Dad is still a Broski! My dad's been there for me through out all of my career, and he knows just like me that something fishy's going on when I defeated Dolph Ziggler on the same night he won the Intercontinental championship, and I'm not the first in line? Are you serious bro?!
*Then the camera cuts to another pre-recorded clip somewhere else backstage as Scott Stanford is stood next to Zack Ryder*
Scott Stanford: Hey, it's your boy Scott Stanford here, and I'm about to tell you about the brand new game available on the iPhone, iPad and Android phones. XWL Ryderfest! A brand new re-imagining of classic wrestling arcade game Wrestlefest featuring all of your favourite XWL Superstars, legends and Zack's top broski's, now you can compete as such inspirational icons of wrestling such as the Ultimate Broski, Koko Bro Ware and The Broski Brawler. But that's not all this game also features all the must have broski's you can play as me! Scott Stanford! Chiapetta! Think you've got what it takes? Well think again because you'll be going toe to toe with The Big O! And of course what game would be complete without the man that inspired it all? Long Island Iced Z himself!

From the makers hit game "Know your Bro" and miracle hair product Brogaine, you'd be a fool to miss out on this bad boy, now Zack back to you in the studio!
*Looking confused Zack, tilts his head and stares at Stanford, then takes off his glasses to talk to him*
Zack Ryder: Bro, I'm right here, what are you on about?
Scott Stanford: I'm meant back to you live at Final Stand 4, baby, you know that. Back in the studio!
Zack Ryder: Bro, we don't have a studio, we have a wall that's it. There might be a poster too, bro, but that hasn't arrived yet...
*Zack pauses, then turns towards the cameraman*
Zack Ryder: Can we cut? Seriously bro, can we cut, this take is ruined. From the top?
*Zack then walks out of shoot at he walks over to the camera, and he tries to end the recording*
Zack Ryder: Gimme this thing. How do you turn it off? Oh wait, I got it...wait are we still recording?
*As Zack fiddles with the back of the camera, he then turns off the camera to a multi-colored static*
*After one or two seconds the static ends as former Saved by the Bell character Mr. Belding is on screen*
Mr. Belding: Hey, hey, hey! Broski fan, it's your favourite high school principal Mr. Belding here from Saved by the Bell, and with things quiet here at Bayside High School for Spring Break, I thought I'd pay visit to the Z! True Long Island Story, and I just wanted to say how great it is that your back from your brief spell in Hollywood back to where you belong in the XWL ring. And I love the show Zack, and it's great to see your pay-per-view debut of this show, all eyes are on you now, Zack, I'm excited to see what you're going to be up to next Zack, keep making waves Zack, and hopefully you can go onto big things, and if you go back to Hollywood again, you'll be in detention before you know it, aha. Just kidding, good luck Zack.
*Then the camera switches to Zack again smiling at the message from Mr. Belding*
Zack Ryder: How cool was that? My broski Mr. Belding sends his regards. I was a huge fan of Saved by the Bell back in the day and now he's a fan of mine. I always liked Kelly Kapowski, what wasn't there to like? She was cool, she was popular and she was an athlete, a bit like Zack Ryder of course! And now she's a M.I.L.F. Mom I'd like to follow...on Twitter that is! And just in case she's watching this, *Zack raises his right arm to head height and makes a phone gesture* Call me!
*As Zack finishes talking, a new shot swipes across the screen to Zack in his hotel room from earlier on in the day*
Zack Ryder: Now I'm sure you're wondering how I keep in such good shape all the time even when I'm off shooting movies, hitting up the club or in the ring, I always find a way to keep zacked, especially since my inviZble jump rope went missing, but know you can keep in shape just like me.
*Zack then removes his t-shirt and his headband and walks a few steps backwards and hop on a mini trampoline*
Zack Ryder: I just jump up and down on this miniature trampoline, I can't do any tricks but I can go really high, and you might notice the definition on my calf’s and my quads, you can't get that in the gym. And thanks to these weights I'm holding the muscle's in my arm have really gained in mass, but once thing you might be wondering is why am I wearing my trunks? Well Broski's it's one thing being is shape, it's a whole other thing being in shape and looking great and being in shape, and as for the glasses? Well who doesn't wear sick shades like these when they work out?
*As Ryder bounces on the trampoline a few more times the camera then cuts to a new graphic for Broski of the Week*
*As the graphic ends, the screen wipes across to Zack's friend The Big O jumping weights in the gym*
*As Big O continues doing reps he looks over his shoulder to the camera as he talks*
The Big O: Hey Zack, what's up bro? And what's up XWL. I know you don't know me, but I'm The Big O aka the Alpha Male and I got some news for you, now that my boy, my best friend Zack Ryder, that's right, Zack Ryder has named me the Broski of the week so you can call The Big O, The Big Bro...ski.
*As he finishes his set of reps, Big O puts the weights back on the bench, and turns to face the camera*
The Big O: And now that my bro, Zack Ryder has come back to the XWL, some things are going to change around there, you all better recognise that Zack Ryder, the Woo Woo Woo kid ain't messing around, he's been training hard just like The Big O because he knows more weights equals more dates and you know that. And if you can't handle that HEAT? *Big O takes off his jacket and throws it on the ground, as well as his glasses* THEN GET OUT OF MY O ZONE!
*Bog O then stares into the camera lens, as the camera swipes back to Zack Ryder at the site of Final Stand IV*
Zack Ryder: Now unfortunately that's about all we have time for this week, and as always remember,
*Upon the bottom of the screen a link to Zack's Youtube channel appears*
Zack Ryder: To subscribe to my channel and watch all of the other episodes!
*Then replacing the Youtube link, a link to his Facebook fan page is displayed*
Zack Ryder: Like me on Facebook!
*And then a link to his Twitter account replaces the Facebook link*
Zack Ryder: Follow me on Twitter!
*And finally a link to XWLShop.com is shown on the bottom of the screen*
Zack Ryder: And go to XWLShop.com to buy the Broski headband, AND the glasses, the Zack Ryder necklace, the Zack Ryder wig, the Zack Ryder scarf AND the Zack Ryder t-shirt! And as always...
Zack Ryder: Take care!..*Zack brushes up his hair, and then the hair on his coveted Internet championship* Spike your hair! Woo woo woo! You know it!
*Zack then removes his sunglasses and throws them at the camera, as it quickly cuts to the ending graphic, and the ending theme for z! True Long Island Story plays*

Opening I thought the amount of commentary was about right, commented on the right matches, nothing out of the ordinary, pretty much what you'd expect to open a PPV. ****
Triple H promo I liked it. It wasn't massively long, but it's your first promo as Triple H so I wasn't expecting anything massively long like some sort of two post filler match. It was well written too which is the most important thing got the message across well and the kind of Triple H you're going to be, and I'm happy to see someone pick up Triple H that will actually do something with him for once. ***
Ted Dibiase vs The Rock Whatevs, who gives a shit? It's only a filler match, with really inconsistent font type. Zero stars, seriously guys it's Final Stand IV, up your game a bit? You just mailed it in.
Sheamus promo Again like Gaz with Triple H, this is your first Sheamus promo so I wasn't expecting it to be your best promo. I thought it was good though, and I like how you established a character for him too and used your weird Irish words as well, something all of us actual people don't understand. I liked the shot you took at Wade Barrett/England too I thought that was quite clever, but it probably would of been better if you mentioned Regal instead, unless you're getting the Orton treatment and getting a massive push straight away. *** and a half
John Cena promo Oh look it's Mr No wins at Final Stand 4 John Cena and he's in the wrong arena. I win by count out then right? Whatev's would of kicked your ass anyways. It's a big night for Cena, two big matches and you started off with the US title match, and you pretty much did what Cena would of done had it been an actual situation so I can't fault you for that. I liked how you took the criticisms I used a few weeks ago and explained them and laid out plain and simple why you could(but won't) beat Shawn Michaels, how you took on Cody and Rock and sent them running to the B show. Then moving onto the Money in the Bank and the future World title shot, I liked that bit too, again very Cena like. ****

*Final Stand here in Houston, Texas has been electric so far as the greatest show scheduled in XWL's calender should be. The card is stacked and ready for some of the hugest match ups possible, the fans ready to mark out, but this is one segment the fans won't exactly mark out over as we are taken backstage...*
[Interviewer] Mason Ryan, many of the XWL fans are aware that last week on Redemption, you scored a clean victory of Shawn Michaels, thoughts?
[[Mason Ryan]] Oh please, Shawn Michaels isn't in my league. For anyone who actually watched the match, you would have noticed that I had him right where I wanted him the whole match and I was just extending the punishment. You know, that's why it's such a travesty that I'm not in the United States title match because Shawn Michaels does that title no justice. That title has a lengthy history and I, without a doubt, can say that Shawn Michaels is the least deserving on that title. That is why I want to be the one to personally take it off of him, I want to wipe him off the face of this business, do you know why Shawn Michaels is still relevant? Because I haven't been given the chance to make him irrelevant. I got my match against him and I put him in his place, but guess what? The title wasn't on the line. And do you know why? Because this company doesn't want me to succeed, they'd rather someone who can bring in the big bucks succeeds because that's all anyone cares about, the money. They know that if I was given the chance to, I would take this company by storm, but in my path I'd also get rid of any fans I still somehow have and they'd be at a loss of merchandise sales. They don't care that if I had the opportunity, I'd be the biggest threat to any Champion right now, they just don't care.
[Interviewer] Alright Mason Ryan, seeing as you feel that you deserve a United States Champion shot, if you were to get one, do you feel the title match would have the same result as the match last week?
[[Mason Ryan]] Absolutely. It's not within a shadow of a doubt that if we met in the ring with his title on the line, it'd be the same result. The only difference would be that when I won, he'd have nothing, whereas, I won last week, but he's still the Champion and I'm still the challenger. You've probably heard this from me a lot, but every champion at one point was the challenger. Even the greatest champion had to start out as the challenger for the title before he could finally win it and prove to the world just how much better he was than any of the previous champions. Well I am that great champion, I'm the challenger waiting for a shot and when I get that shot, hell is going to freeze over because I'm going to beat Shawn Michaels, and I'm going to beat anyone who dares challenge me for the title after I win it. I'm the best in this business, through every attribute, I have the best of it. The full package. There's no match for me.
[Interviewer] If Mason Ryan is indeed the best wrestler ever, then do you think your winning streak is ever going to end?
[[Mason Ryan]] Of course not, you see, unlike previous people, I plan on speaking up nothing bigger than what I can back up. Have I stirred you wrong yet? No. I haven't spoken one false word, you can hate me for it all you want, but the truth hurts. I've said I'd beat Sheamus, I beat him, I said I'd beat Daniel Bryan, I beat him, I said I'd beat Shawn Michaels, I beat him, I'm telling you I'll beat Goldberg, I'll beat him, and I'm telling you that I'm never going to lose either. It's just below me to lose a match because everyone else is inferior to me. Not only am I going to keep winning, but I'm going to begin chasing titles and winning those too, I'm just a winning machine. Hell, I don't know if anyone still remembers it, but way back in December, I even took on two men at once, and guess what? I still won.
[Interviewer] Mason, I have another question, Goldberg has yet to be heard from tonight, or last week, what do you think is going to happen with your match situation?
[[Mason Ryan]] What? You didn't see him? I just saw him walk past me in the hall way right before you came and asked me to if you could interview me. It's no wonder you interview guys are the lowest paid people in this company, I mean, you want to get people's thoughts on matches and you don't even know they're in the building. But anyways, Goldberg hasn't been heard from publicly in awhile, but if you follow his twitter, you would have seen that he tweeted, "Just arrived in Houston, here to whoop some arrogant ass! #Winning". Except if this was twitter, you would have seen all the spelling mistakes. Anyways, Goldberg is indeed showing up for this match which surprises me to be honest with you. I mean, I thought for sure he would have had enough ass whoopings via Mason Ryan for one career, but the man is constantly proving me wrong. Just like he proved me wrong when he came back to XWL only to suck, he proved me wrong by being actually ready for a match against me. I just don't get it, surely he must know he's outmatched. Either way, I'm going to make Goldberg never return to XWL again because that's just what I do. Any other questions?
[Interviewer] Yes. If Goldberg somehow beats yo-
[[Mason Ryan]] Next question.
[Interviewer] Sorry Mason, but there are no more quest-
[[Mason Ryan]] Are you serious? You were going to try and end our little interview that YOU scheduled and I really wanted nothing to do with, you were going to try and end it on a negative note for me? You're that kind of guy? You're going to try and see if you can get me to doubt myself? You know what, I'm done with you. If you want to interview me again, don't bother, because the answer is no.
*Mason Ryan quickly gets up and leaves the table. Mason Ryan walks away, leaving the interviewer there. We go to commercial.*

*The theme song of Mason Ryan hits. The fans know it's time for his match against Goldberg and they begin to boo Mason Ryan. Mason makes his way down the ramp, confident, making it clear that he'll walk out the winner tonight and improve himself to 17-0. Mason Ryan finishes walking down the ramp and then hops into the ring, cocky as always. Mason Ryan seems to motion for the theme song of his opponent to hit and begin his entrance, and simultaneously, it does.*
*Goldberg's theme hits and the holder of the longest undefeated streak in professional wrestling makes his way down the ramp. Goldberg has a serious face on as he gets into the ring. Goldberg all the while, staring at Mason, is ready for the match to begin and it does.*
Ding, ding, ding
*Mason Ryan locks up with Goldberg and they both push back and forth. Neither men are able to win the upper-hand and they push apart. Both men stare and circle the ring, waiting for the other to make a move. When neither man makes the first move, they both back off. They then simultaneously move towards the center of the ring and lock up, Mason Ryan clearly winning and pushing Goldberg back into the corner where he pummels him with strikes. Mason Ryan releases the strikes by irish whipping Goldberg into the opposite corner, which is followed by a clothesline. Mason Ryan throws punches to the grounded Goldberg before lifting him up and hitting a big spinebuster. Mason Ryan attempts to lift Goldberg and hit yet another spine buster, but Goldberg, this time, plants Mason with a DDT reversal on the Spine Buster. Goldberg lifts Mason Ryan up and sends him off the ropes and then nails him with a shoulder block. Goldberg goes for a quick cover.*
1..
Only a one count. Mason Ryan rolls up Goldberg when he reaches his knees from the kickout.
1...
Again, only a one count. Mason Ryan and Goldberg face off towards each other where they trade strikes. Mason Ryan eventually wins and strikes Goldberg right into the ropes where he uses them to help get shot after shot on the body of Goldberg. Mason Ryan, once done, lifts Goldberg up and bounces him off the ropes for a special suplex, using the ropes for added height. The ref quickly warns Mason to not use the ropes, but Mason ignores the ref. Ryan smashes Goldberg's knee into the ground multiple times before Goldberg kicks Mason off.
Goldberg charges Mason Ryan and nails a clothesline. Goldberg begins to wrench Mason's arms, inflicting damage. However, Goldberg has miscalculated Mason Ryan's strength because Mason Ryan is able to pull his arm away from Goldberg and then straight from the ground, slip behind Goldberg and lift him up for a german suplex. Mason Ryan taunts and the fans boo. Mason Ryan has turned his back to Goldberg, but Goldberg is ready to strike. He gets to his feet and prepares the spear. Mason Ryan turns around to a running Goldberg! But no, Mason Ryan has reversed the running attempt into the House of Pain. Mason Ryan covers over Goldberg!
1... 2... 3!!!
*Mason Ryan's theme plays loud as he has won. Mason Ryan quickly, but clearly, celebrates his win before leaving the ring and we head to a video package for the later to come Intercontinental Championship match.*
Also, this would be better, but most people already know the result so not going to bother.

This is Penguin. I'm declaring this post of topz for Arby n the Chief.
Opening Segment With Triple H Pretty good opening to Final Stand, going over basically all the matches we are going to see tonight and recapping on last year's Final Stand was a good addition. The amount of hype given to each match was good too. Was pretty good overall. Then we move into the Triple H promo which wasn't the best but it's your first one and everyone gets better as time goes on. As Bang said, good to finally see someone good pick up Triple H. Can't wait to see what you do with him as time goes on.
Ted DiBiase vs. The Rock [Three Stages of Hell] Normally, I'd just skim the match because of how long it is but I said I'd review so I'm going to read it and review it. *About An Hour Or So Later.* Epic combination of write ups between David and Zander, easily a five star match. First fall was a good start, couldn't exactly tell what type of match is was and I might of missed it but it looked like a Hardcore Match That doesn't really matter though, it was ftw. Rock wins First Fall and then we move into the Second Fall which is a Steel Cage Match. Ending to the second fall was awesome and if that didn't happen, I would've been a little disappointed because it's a steel cage match and I'm glad the cage was used to end the match basically. Oh and yeah, boo Ted winning. Just Kidding, David. Third fall came, blah blah blah, want to get to reviewing that epic Ryder promo now. Damn that Rock and making Ted his bitch. Expected Ted to win this tbh, but first shocker of Final Stand just happened there. Epic write up, defiantly has a chance of being match of the show.
Sheamus Promo Pretty good first Sheamus promo from Alan, I remember back when you were first going to take him I think and I was really looking forward to it but when you dropped him and then I was sad. But now your Sheamus and fuck yeah awesome Sheamus played by someone from Ireland. Went over who you are and what your goals are. Typical Sheamus promo which is good because what I read seemed to be like something Sheamus would say in real life. Then as the promo came to an end, nice trick by making the fans think you're leaving but nope, vintage heel. Can't wait to see what Sheamus does as the weeks go on.
John Cena Promo This was a good promo and all, but it seemed not as good as your regular Cena promos. Not sure, might be because Cena is being all serious and I'm use to him being all fun and joking. Still it was a good promo. Talked about both matches a little bit, then starting to build more hype towards the United States Championshiip match and saying how you're are going to win. Recapping both of Your's and HBK's past couple big name matches. (Hawkins Mention ) After a little bit of talking, Cena talks about who he basically is which was pretty good. The promo come to an end he mentions how he never had a chance and now it's his time.
Zack Ryder Promo Best Ryder in XWL EVER and I'm serious when I say that. I skimmed the promo earlier and I just wanted to read it because it just looked amazing. After reading it, it was amazing. Felt just like a real episode of Z! True Long Island Story. Sign of the week, tweet of the week, The Big O, Zack's Dad, Chiapetta, Scott Stanford and everything else. Even though I gave this five stars, I don't really know what else to say besides what a awesome promo this was.
Mason Ryan Interview Didn't exactly care for that promo but it was still okay, the ups were your victory over Shawn Michaels and others recently but then again, I couldn't really get into this because I know that you're winning so couldn't exactly get into everything involving the feud with Goldberg and that's what the promo was mainly about. But, I'm just gonna focus on the other stuff not involving not involving Goldberg because Pats is a douch and all for leaving mid-feud. Rest of promo was good and I'm looking forward to Mason's plans after FS, maybe my second superstar, ____, can face and beat him sometime. Also good obvious win later in the show.
Mason Ryan vs. Goldberg "Shawn Aarons aka RCP said: Give me 1 star and it'll be done with ---" k, done reviewing that match.

So I did this like a month ago before I knew Ted/Rock would open. Not changing the commentary, so SOISOISOISOSIOSI.
*We return to Final Stand IV following a Bad Blood 2012 Advertisement, and we are greeted by Jim Ross, Michael Cole, and Jerry "the King" Lawler.*
Jim Ross: Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to Final Stand Four, and what a night it has been so far! We still have so much more left in the show..... including the World Heavyweight Championship match, TLC, and The Rock versus Ted DiBiase!
Michael Cole: I can't even believe Ted DiBiase has a spot on this card! He should've been fired!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Oh, you're just mad he finally gave you what was coming your way.
Michael Cole: I'm the voice of XWL! I'm Michael Cole! I was doing my un-bias job, and he randomly attacked me! Now this guy is in one of the main events of our biggest pay per views of the year? He's a joke! A goofball! I can't wait to see the Rock lay the smackdown on Ted tonight!
Jim Ross: Now if we can get back to the show.....
*Before JR can say anymore, the lights go out in the arena!*
Jim Ross: What the hell?
Jerry "the King" Lawler: We lost power? Come on, not at Final Stand!
*After a few moments, everyone is still in utter confusion. The lights are still out, but suddenly.....*
Michael Cole: WHAT?
Jerry "the King" Lawler: JR! You don't think!
*The crowd is going wild and Batista comes out on the stage! He's here!*
Jim Ross: Bah gawd! It's true, King! Batista is here! Batista is here!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: AAAAHHHH!
Michael Cole: I can't believe this crybaby is back!
*The crowd is still on their feet as Batista makes it to the start of the ramp and sets off his signature pyro.*
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Well, 'ya better believe it, Cole! Batista is back! How great is that?
Jim Ross: We haven't seen Batista since X-Treme X-Mas! What must be going through his mind?
*Batista stops on the ramp again and yells out.....*
[Batista] I'M BACK, BABY!
*Before entering the ring, Batista takes a look back at all the fans on the ramp.*
[Batista] You better believe it!
*Batista finally makes his way into the ring and the crowd is still roaring. He climbs up on the turnbuckle and poses for them.*
[Batista] YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Listen to him, Cole!
*Batista takes a microphone, but he doesn't speak. Instead, he looks around and smirks, soaking in the moment.*
Michael Cole: This is the man that couldn't even beat Wade Barrett after he wrestled twice! He's a loser! He's overrated! He's a cry baby!
*Batista looks around for another moment, still smiling. Eventually, he raises the microphone and speaks for the first time since November.*
[Batista] Wow! Looks like I picked the right moment to return. In front of 70,000 plus people right here at Final Stand IV. I have to admit, the last year has been one hell of a ride. I started it off by forming a partnership with MVP. Remember that guy? I wish I didn't. Anyways, we had each others back for a while. I helped him to win many matches. Then, in a split second, he turned on me. He kicked me right in the head at Supremacy. Seemed like things would be going down hill from there, but I still had the Money in the Bank briefcase. I was still strong, I was still the Animal. The next month, I whooped his ass in a steel cage match and sent him packing. After that, everything soared like never before. I was on the roll of my career, defeating everyone that came in my way. I was unbeatable! I had a real streak going, not like that wannabe Mason Ryan. That all changed. One night, I was attacked by Christian. He hit me in the skull with a chair over and over. The doctors told me to stay home after that. I heeded the doctor's advice, but it ate me up inside.
[Batista] After a while, I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to get back in the ring. I had to do what I do best. I needed to be unleashed, you could say. Eventually, I broke out the cage myself. I was backstage at X-Treme X-Mas..... and I saw Wade Barrett win the World Heavyweight Championship. I looked down to the floor, and I saw the Money in the Bank briefcase. He looked back up at the TV, and I saw Barrett basking in all the glory he could want. I thought to myself there would be no better way to return..... so I got up and picked up the briefcase. I told the sound guy to hit my music, and once he did, the blood was running through my veins. My heart was pumping. I knew this was my time. I knew this was my moment. I knew I was going to end the year with a bang. I went out there, saw the look on the face of Barrett, and I smiled. I knew I had it in the bag. I could feel it in me. I was going to be the XWL World Heavyweight Champion. Yet, when I went down, and came into the ring. Something happened that I would have never imagined. I lost.
[Batista] I had no idea what happened. In just eleven minutes, I went from the Animal..... to the laughing stock of the company. Everyone was laughing how Batista lost his cash-in match. That I lost the easiest title victory of my career. They were laughing at how I couldn't beat a man who just wrestled two matches. Some even say I cried after the match. I walked backstage, and kept my head down the entire time. No one said a word to me. I took my stuff, and I left. After that moment, I didn't know if I could come back to XWL. I figured maybe that was a sign to call it quits along with my head injury. I thought Dave Batista had left the building. A month later, I was watching Over the Limit. I saw Wade Barrett and Justin Gabriel nearly kill themselves for the title, and it reminded me of the drive I used to have for the title. It reminded me that I couldn't let a loss get to me like that. It reminded me that I am the Animal. After that I looked at the shows. I saw Cody Rhodes making a mockery of Breakdown, I saw the Rock being the biggest asshole on the planet, I saw Barrett cheating to retain his title, I saw Dolph Ziggler running around doing hand stands. I saw a bunch of cowardly wimps thinking they own the show, and using every cheap escape route they could.
[Batista] I couldn't let his happen to the business I love. I knew I needed to come back and do two things. I needed to unleash the Animal. I needed to get rid of the complainers. The whiners. The bitching superstars. I don't care if you're Dolph Ziggler. If you're James Storm, Cody Rhodes, Wade Barrett, Shawn Michaels, Rock, Miz, R-Truth, CM Punk, Mason Ryan, Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, Ted DiBiase, Justin Gabriel, or John Cena. No body can stop me. I am like no other man in this business. There is no man with the same amount of power and ruthless aggression that I posse. I needed to take back what is rightfully mine. I needed to become the king of the mountain again. And none of those little twigs are going to get in my way, because the Animal has been unleashed. Play time is over, it's time to walk the walk.
[Batista] The other reason why I'm back is to make sure that image at X-Treme X-Mas is not the last image these people see of me. I REFUSE to go out like that. I am the Animal. That is what I need people to remember. That is what people are going to remember. And that is what people will forever remember. I'm not going to be anyone's bitch this time around. I'm not going to let fools like The Rock, MVP, and Christian push me around anymore. I am my own man. I've spent the last two months training. I've expanded my arsenal. I'm bigger, I'm badder, I'm stronger. I'll over power you. I'll out strike you. And now? I'll make you tap too. It's something that I'll like to call the "Batista Bite." If a poorly applied STF can make people tap out..... you just wait. I'm back with a vengeance. I am UNSTOPPABLE. I am UNBEATABLE. I am the ANIMAL. I am..... Batista. And I'm back, and better than ever.
*Suddenly, an unfamiliar theme hits to the utter confusion of everyone.*
Jim Ross: Who the hell?
Michael Cole: Thank goodness someone has come out here to stop this!
*Batista looks up at the stage, confused as well. Suddenly, a large man with multiple tattoos on his body appears on the stage.*
Michael Cole: Ladies and gentlemen, that is the hottest free agent in XWL, Brodus Clay!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Whoever he is, he's huge!
*Batista isn't pleased about being interrupted, and he doesn't seem impressed by the roar from Brodus Clay.*
*Brodus eventually grabs a microphone from someone and jumps into the ring, smiling. That smile quickly fades away as he comes face to face with Batista.
*The crowd is on their feet as the two men don't say a word, just looking at each other. Eventually, Brodus backs up and raises the microphone.*
Jerry "the King" Lawler: He's got something to say!
Michael Cole: Yes, Jerry, now shut up and let him speak!
{Brodus Clay} Are you people stupid?! You're cheering for this guy? The man who just admitted he was a failure because he couldn't beat a worn down and beaten down man with his Money in the Bank briefcase, you were a tool for MVP for a good part of the year and then you were made into a BITCH by Christian! This man doesn't deserve praise, this man doesn't deserve your appreciation and this man doesn't deserve ANYTHING. Dave it's nice that you want to come back, and of course you have to take the spotlight at the biggest show of the year but don't you think you should hang em' up? You are getting a little old to actually compete in that ring. And we saw that when Barrett whooped your ass at X-Treme X-Mas, speaking of which lets get a look at that face of yours. Put it up on the screen!
*Just as Brodus finishes asking this the freeze frame pops up on the screen.*
*Brodus begins speaking again after chuckling for a few moments.*
{Brodus Clay} Now that's a face only a mother could love! Now that's not the only reason I'm out here another reason is to inform you that Brodus Clay is the next greatest thing to hit XWL and in no time I'll be the most feared person in the company. I'll be taking Batista's spot here as "The Animal" in XWL. I will crush every one and everything in my path and there isn't anything you or Batista here can do about it! Long ago you people crushed my hopes and dreams of becoming a superstar in WWE. But now, I'm not going to leave my fate in the hands of you people and as I stated once before I'm going to take away your heroes, I'm going to be the realization of your worst nightmares, and I am the manifestation of your greatest fears! I am Brodus Clay!
{Brodus Clay} Now that you know that, let me introduce you to David Michael Bautista, he's 43 years old, and is a man desperately hanging onto a wrestling career. He "retired" from WWE once he had accomplished everything there was to do and pursued other careers, unfortunately he failed at those, so he sought to wrestle again. Unfortunately, WWE was gone, so he came here to XWL. And became a bodyguard for MVP, he remained in MVP's shadows until challenging RVD for his Money in the Bank briefcase and defeating him. Sadly for you this was the high spot of this past year as you've been made to look pathetic time and time again. And guess what? It's happening again! Right now! In front of your eyes I'm making you look like the biggest loser on the planet. That grand entrance you made coming out here was supposed to be my big debut! I was going to come out here and tell the world my goals, what I want from competing in this company but then Mick Foley came to me and informed me that my spot was bumped, that Batista was returning and that was more important than me. And at the time I nodded my head and said okay but as I sat around waiting for that moment I realized something. XWL is trying to recycle the same tired shit over and over again bringing back old run down wrestlers to draw money and ratings and that's not okay and then I told myself that's over with because I'm out here to put a stop to it.......starting with YOU!
[Batista] Wait a minute, who the hell are you? I'm a former World Heavyweight Champion! I'm the former Mr. Money in the Bank. The main eventer of Wrestlemania! Hold on a second, I know who you are! You're G-Rilla! Yeah, I've seen your work, man. But none of that matters. Because I can already tell you're nothing more than a jealous snot nose punk. You think you're going to come out and try and make a name off of Dave Batista? It just doesn't work like that. I am "the Animal" and I always will be. No fat bastard is going to walk into this ring and take that away from me. I may not be the youngest kid on the block anymore, but you'd better bet your ass I could whoop you. I'm tired of the next generation of superstars just coming out here and they think they own this place. That's not how it works here, Brodus. You have to pay your dues in this business, and that's something you need to learn. You need to earn respect and all of that. Nothing gets handed to you in this business, except an ass kicking by Dave Batista.
*The crowd goes insane as Batista drops the mic and goes face to face with Brodus. The two just simply lock eyes for a few moments as the crowd is on their feet. Brodus then swings the mic right into Batista's forehead and causes him to stagger back. Brodus immediately grabs him by the throat but Dave starts firing elbows to the side of Brodus' head and cause him to release him. Batista then starts to throw punches, dazing the big man! The crowd pops, but Brodus fights back with a huge knee to the cut. He starts to throw punches, but Batista blocks one, and now the two are going back and forth! Brodus goes for a clothesline, but Batista ducks and hits a Spinebuster!*
Jim Ross: The Animal has been unleashed at Final Stand!
*Batista shakes the ropes as the crowd is fully on their feet. Dave runs to the ropes and goes for a Spear but Brodus headbutts him as he was running full speed! Batista is lying on the mat dazed but slowly starts rising to his feet and as he does Brodus sprints towards the ropes and hits a Flying Crossbody!*
Michael Cole: The Fall of Humanity! Yes!! Yes!!
Jim Ross: Dear gawd! A man that size, running at that speed just crushed "The Animal"!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: But why?! It's not Batista's fault!
*Brodus gets to his feet as the crowd boo's him, he begins taunting them an grabs Batista by the throat with bot his hands, he lifts him to a standing position! Clay then removes one hand still grasping Batista with the other and hits a massive Chokeslam! Clay reaches for a mic while still laying on the ground and proceeds to crawl towards Batista and says something to him.*
{Brodus Clay} My bad....
*Brodus tosses the mic and crawls out of the ring up the ramp as the fans boo him for interrupting Batista's big return and assaulting him. As Brodus walks up the ramp, irate, staff and medical personal run out to check on Batista.*
Jim Ross: There could be some eternal damage to Batista after that assault!
Michael Cole: What a great debut for Brodus Clay! I can't wait for Brodus to take out Batista for good!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Oh come on, Cole! That was a cheep assault!
Michael Cole: No, Jerry, that was making an impact!
*The staff helps Batista to his feet, but he pushes them off and refuses help. He leaves the ring as he clutches his ribs. He carries on, walking up the ramp as the crowd gives him a standing ovation. He finally reaches the top of the stage, and he turns around, raising his arm to address the crowd.*
*The crowd cheers for Batista, but suddenly, he falls to the ground! The crowd boos as Brodus is standing over Batista, kicking him in the ribs.*
Jerry "the King" Lawler: Oh come on! Enough is enough!
*The crowd's reaction turns into a flurry of boos as Brodus continues to attack Dave. As Batista as hardly crawling to stay up, Brodus kicks him in the ribs and sets him up for a power bomb!*
Jim Ross: No, dammit, no! Someone needs to stop this! He's going to break his damn back!
*Brodus lets out a huge scream as he picks up Batista and power bombs him on the stage!*
Jim Ross: No! This is sickening! Brodus Clay wants to make sure Batista can't walk out of here on his own will!
Michael Cole: And rightfully so!
Jerry "the King" Lawler: What? How could you ever condone something like this, Cole?
*Brodus finally backs off of Batista, grinning. He heads backstage as the personals check on the fallen superstar.*
Jim Ross: Batista's back could be broken! This was just an assault from Brodus Clay!
*Final Stand IV cuts to a video package for the number one contender for the World Heavyweight Championship, Justin Gabriel.*

*As the video package featuring Justin Gabriel comes to an end and the fans in attendance sit at the edge of their seats, awaiting for the show to continue. But all of a sudden, the silent crowd turns into a sea of boos as the theme of a former XWL superstar plays throughout the arena signaling the return of one man.*
*The fans continue to boo as Captain Charisma himself walks out from the back with a smirk on his face. He taunts at the top of the stage, moving his hands across his waist as if a title was there. Simultaneously he shouts his signature "One More Match" catchphrase and soon after, he makes his way down the ramp.*
*Christian casually walks down the ramp, with a smirk still on his face, ignoring anyone and everyone who boos him. Once he reaches the bottom of the ramp he makes his way over to the steps. He grabs the mic that is seen laying on them and Christian makes his way up the steps. He steps in-between then top and middle rope and walks over to the center of the ring. Christian stands there and waits for the crowd to calm before speaking.*
[[Christian]] My peeps... I'd just like to say I'm sorry. *A few crowd members boo as some just sit and listen.* I'd like to say a few things. I'm sorry for the way I've acted to all of you over the past few months. I'm sorry for the way I acted against all the superstars in the back over the past few months. And most of all, I'm sorry... *Before Christian could finish his sentence some of the crowd interrupts him by letting out some cheers while some interrupt with boos.* Please, let me finish. And most of all, I'd like to say I'm sorry for how gullible you people are. I mean really? You believed that cheesy "I'm sorry" crap? * The fans instantly go back to booing him, the same boos that filled the arena when he first returned.* That's the thing about you people, you are easily manipulated. It's easy to toy with you and make you think we're the good guys when deep down inside, some of us aren't. Like me, I use to act like the nice guy who cared about his "peeps" until I realized, worshiping and kissing the feet of you all will get me no where in XWL. Back when I first turned into a bad guy I was closer to getting a title match then I ever was before and that made me feel happy inside. I did lose but that's why week after week I continued to prove why I deserve One... More... Match...
*The crowd boos Christian as he continues to speak.*
[[Christian]] But sadly that match for the Intercontinental Championship won't happen because I realized something after I lost to Dolph Ziggler in the number one contendership for the Intercontinental Championship. Over on Breakdown, there is some kind of conspiracy against me. When I had my first title match against Wade I was screwed out of the title because of that annoying little bitch named Randy Orton! I had the title in my grasp! But no, Randy Orton screwed me. In other moments in time where I had a shot, something else has happened. I'm not going into excruciating detail because none of you are worth my time but let me say this. The referees in XWL suck too, it's not just the fans and Randy Orton. It is also them damn Breakdown referees. So I took action and approached and demanded that he traded me to Redemption for absolutely no one. He of course said no, so I did what any logical Breakdown superstar would do and I approached the better of the two Breakdown General Managers, Cody Rhodes! Of course this was long before tonight where he is putting his career on the line against a wreckless child who goes by the name of Edge.
*The fans cheer at the mention of Edge. Christian ignores the cheers and continues speaking.*
[[Christian]] Cody, being the great General Manager he is, agreed to the trade because me and him could relate. We both don't like Mick and he understood that and Vickie Guerrero was pleased to hear the offer. So, Cody and Vickie made the deal official and hear I stand, the newest and possibly now best superstar on the Redemption brand. Now that leads me to being called "The New Guy" but hey, say whatever you want but I want to hear all of you say that when I become your United States Champion! Now that I no longer have Mick Foley and Randy Orton screwing me out of my championship reigns, I'd like to see... Wait, oh yeah, turns out Randy Orton got traded to Redemption after I did. The guy can't get enough of me, can he? Even with Randy on my show, I'm going to prove everyone who's doubted me wrong. Some have said to me "Christian, it's just going to be a repeat of what happened on Breakdown" or "Christian, you no longer have what it takes" but those people, are dead wrong. Mick Foley and the invisible conspiracy that lurks around there held me down and stopped me from accomplishing something I deserved. *Christian stops talking for a moment and just stands there. He smiles as the crowd continues to boo him. Christian then begins to speak again.* What does booing me accomplish? I'm not John Cena, I don't want to Rise Above The Hate but speaking of John, I have a few things to say about him. I'm so damn sick of hearing him week after week. So damn sick of hearing him talking about how he beat The Rock and how he is going to become the new United States Champion. It's not as easy as you think John, you can't just come out hear, suck up the fans and expect to win. You actually have to work, something you're not use to.
*The fans continue to boo as Christian continues to bash Cena.*
[[Christian]] Helping the little kids and the army won't help you win the title. I respect what you do for them but I hate how you feed off of them just to be noticed and successful. You won't be able to do this forever seen because you can either walk out of Final Stand with the title or you can walk out without the title, it doesn't matter to me because whoever is the champion is going to have to defend that title against me soon. I don't care if the champion is John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Mason Ryan, or any other Redemption superstar. I don't give a rat's ass because I'm going to prove that I'm better then everyone and anyone. I won't be demanding another championship match once I lose the title. I won't be demanding "One More Match." I won't because I won't lose the championship once I win. But for now, there is only one thing to say.
[[Christian]] XWL Redemption, your captain is here and it just got instantly classic. When next week rolls around, Christian is going to be running that show the first day there. Why? Because that's how I roll!
*Christian drops the mic and his smirk returns to his face. The screen fades to black and a video package hyping up Justin Gabriel's opponent tonight, Wade Barrett, begins to play on the titantron.*

*Final Stand returns from a video package for Drew McIntyre, one of the men in the X-treme Championship Gauntlet Match that takes place later tonight, and quickly fades to a deserted stretch of land, seemingly in the middle of nowhere, and the words “Earlier Today” come across the bottom left side of the screen. They fade after a few seconds and a camera is seen looking around for something or someone in the nearby area. The camera spots a man on an All-Terrain Vehicle and approaches the unknown man.*
{???} Excuse me, sir. Do you happen to know where I can find a man that goes by the name Michael McGillicutty?
*The man doesn't respond and is seemingly lost in thought, looking out to the distance in the deserted field. The unknown voice of the man holding the camera asks him again and receives the same answer. The cameraman moves closer to the man and upon being a few feet from him, he is revealed to be Michael McGillicutty, the current X-treme Champion, with his championship nowhere in sight.*
{McGillicutty} Glad you can join me, Mitch.
{Mitch the Camera Guy} I came out here as soon as I got your text. If you don't mind me asking, why did you want to meet me out here?
{McGillicutty} It's real simple, Mitch. For the past few days, I've had time to prepare for my matches at Final Stand IV, both mentally and physically. After I defeated Chavo and ended his career on Redemption a few days ago, I set off for Houston and here we are. I will give credit where credit is due, Chavo put up a hell of a fight and he has slightly gained my respect. Don't mistake that for kindness, I still dislike him and still believe that he is the black sheep to the Guerrero name. Chavo, enjoy drifting off in the sea of obscurity because you will become an afterthought and most people probably already have forgotten about you.
{McGillicutty} Later tonight, I face three men in an X-treme Championship Gauntlet match. Drew McIntyre, Jack Swagger and Sin Cara, in that order. I have faced Drew and Sin Cara before, and defeated them might I add. I have yet to face Jack Swagger in my tenure here, so he is most likely a wild card in this gauntlet match. Everyone in the X-treme Division, listen closely because I'm only going to say this once: When I retain MY championship, you will all know why I am the face of this Division, you will know that I will never be dethroned, and you will know that The Genesis of McGillicutty will claim three new victims tonight when I defeat three men, one right after the other with minimal rest in between matches.
{McGillicutty} Not only will I compete in a gauntlet match, I will also be competing in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. After I defeat five other men, I will be crowned the new Mr. Money in the Bank and I will solidify my claim that I am the greatest third generation superstar in this company. How sweet will it be when I walk out still X-treme Champion and the new Mr. Money in the Bank. The last person to do that was a man that goes by the name Rob Van Dam and it was at last years Final Stand no less.
{McGillicutty} For those of you that have been living under a rock, my opponents tonight are Dolph Ziggler, Kevin Steen, John Cena, James Storm and Randy Orton. I'll start with the two people who only have one match at Final Stand, Randy and Steen. Randy is a fellow third generation superstar and the first World Champion here in XWL. Quite an accomplishment Randy, shame it's not going to mean anything when you get destroyed in the Money in the Bank match and fall short just like in your match with Cena two weeks ago, granted you dropped me with an RKO, luckily for me, I learn from my mistakes and trust me when I say that I won't happen again.
{McGillicutty} Kevin, you talk a big game and you use profanity to make yourself seem tough but the fact of the matter is, you're nothing but a little boy who speaks loud so people can pay attention to you. Kevin, it wasn't your little buddy Kevin Kelly that ate “your” cupcake, it was me. I've been eating your cupcakes since the day we were announced to be in the Money in the Bank match and just recently you realized that somebody was eating them. With the knowledge of a raisin, how exactly do you plan on winning Money in the Bank?
{McGillicutty} That leaves the other three men that are pulling double duty tonight. Storm might have it the worst, he is going against Stone Cold Steve Austin in a steel cage match. Well Storm, Sorry, about your damn luck. Ziggler is also in a bad way, facing both Joey Ryan and AJ Styles in a triple threat match for the Intercontinental Championship. Ziggler, I hope you win tonight and retain your championship, just kidding, I hope you lose your championship, hash-tag heel. Then there is John Cena facing Shawn Michaels for the United States Championship. I defeated Shawn quite easily in our champion vs champion match a few weeks ago. I beat him so bad that he had to resort to disqualifying himself from the match just so I can stop my onslaught. Cena, as much as it pains me to say this, I hope you defeat Shawn. That way Shawn can stop hogging the spotlight from the new generation and we can get our chance to shine.
{Mitch the Camera Guy} Umm, that still doesn't explain why you told me to meet you out here.
{McGillicutty} It always has to be about you Mitch, doesn't it? You didn't have to come out here, I didn't force you against your will. You simply came out here because you had nothing better to do and you were bored. Since you've been around me, your life has gotten a lot more interesting. You witnessed brawls between myself and Ted DiBiase, myself and Chavo Guerrero, you were there when I defeated Sin Cara to win my first championship in this company, and you recently saw me end Chavo's pathetic career.
*Before Mitch can respond, he gets cut off by Michael...*
{McGillicutty} Well, off to Final Stand.
*Michael starts his ATV and revs it up before driving off; doing lap around the deserted area before taking off on his proverbial road to Final Stand*
*Final Stand goes to a hype package for the Main Event*

Just want to say before I get into my review, it's only been a few hours and this is already better than pretty much any weekly show we've had in awhile.... Now to the review. Also, will review long ass write up later, when I have more time.
Triple H Opening *** Good commentary to start, pretty typical though. This was good, nothing spectacular though as you've just picked him up and it can't really be expected to be so. So Triple H basically comes out, explains why he's back and gives some intentions, overall, solid promo. As others have said it's nice to have a Triple H who will promo every week for once. And with this just being a starting point, I'm anticipating a lot from Triple H.
Long Match ***** Will read and review later.
Sheamus Returns **** First off, seeing an Irish person playing Sheamus should be good. Because you'll know stuff we probably wouldn't had someone American or English had picked him up. Anyways, felt this was really good and portrayed his character very well, especially for a first promo. Wasn't so sure about all the talk about the World Heavyweight Championship, unless, you are in fact being put in WHC Ranks? Anyways, the topics were all good and talking about basically restarting your career, overall, I was a pretty big fan of this promo. Oh and might as well add, I fell for Sheamus leaving and started to scroll down for the next promo, but ended up seeing more Sheamus lol.
John Cena **** I for one, liked this promo a lot. It was serious where it needed to be serious because I thought this kind of represented Cena being ready for his Wrestle Mania moment. The promo covered the right topics, Money in the Bank and the United States title, while getting the job done in each. Was a good read and those matches should both be interesting.
Z! True Long Island Story **** As others have said, best Ryder yet. All the lines written perfect to Ryder's character, the M.I.L.F. line had to be one of my favorites, was just great all around. Having a great Ryder again, ftw. Every line in this promo clicked and flowed with the rest, and this promo had everything a Zack Ryder promo should. Great and looking forward to all of the future Zack Ryder promos!
Batista & Brodus Clay Return **** This was good. Solid debuts for both Batista and Clay. The thing that I liked the most about this promo was just the surprise of Clay coming out. Really didn't expect it at all. That really made this promo good, and the points made by both superstars were great as well. This feud should be interesting to see play out, I must also add that the fight between the two was written up pretty well as well. And this feud should be interesting to watch unravel. Good debuts/returns by both.
Christian Returns *** This was good. Felt like something may have been missing though, not sure what, but it definetly lacked something. Maybe it's just because you just picked him up, but I'm not sure. Otherwise, this promo was pretty good and yes, another return. Maybe the reason I didn't like it as much is because I've been reading returns for like the past while . But thought this promo was definetly pretty in character for Christian and should provide some future great promos.
McGillicutty's Promo **** RCP is a fan. The promo running through the Money in the Bank people and the X-Treme title challengers got the job done. The various insults for everyone were effective, and Mitch the Camera Guy being left out in wherever that was after being left at the burger shack last week is just lol. Poor Mitch. But anyways, this was definetly a good promo and as previously said by me (I think?), those matches (especially Money in the Bank) are definetly going to be interesting to watch for.

Triple H seg So I liked the segment overall, with Triple H being all somber talking about how he’s been kind of a background player over the years when he’s always been a force to be reckoned it. Also, liked the transition into a more aggressive tone towards the end as HHH essentially said that if you get in his way he’ll kick your ass. It’s really a shame that it was so short though, I was really getting into it when you started picking up steam at the end with Triple H started showing signs of his old badass self, (which is the direction I hope you’re heading in character-wise), but I guess I’ll have to wait for future promos to get a little more. Also, found the mention of HBK interesting, you could be mentioning him for the sake of mentioning him, but a brief confrontation between the two would be nice considering how their careers have turned out in XWL.
Sheamus This was a really fun promo to read from top to bottom. It all flowed nicely, and you established a pretty solid character. While I was reading I didn’t find myself stopping, (aside from trying to figure out what some of those Irish terms), and I was caught off guard by the sudden heel turn. Not only because I wasn’t expecting it, but because I was actually enjoying face Sheamus. I was getting behind bit by bit as I read through the ‘sob’ story as he later called it, and I liked how you gave a legit reason for Sheamus’ absence as he tried to get things back on track after a subpar previous run. Him turning heel because of the fans was fairly standard fare, but what I liked about it was the fact that we’ll be getting the aggressive dangerous monster, and how he’ll be going about with a chip on his shoulder because he feels that he’s the face of an entire country.
John Cena Well, I will say that I like your Cena when he’s being all jokey and stuff, but you managed to pull off a promo with a more serious tone and I give you props for that. It’s time for Cena to get what’s his and he sees Final Stand as the time to capitalize on his opportunities. So he starts off talking about Shawn Michaels, and I liked how you undermined his reign by saying that he hasn’t done anything worthwhile until he beats you. But of course you don’t believe he’ll beat you, because this is your night, and as you’ve said you’ve already beaten HBK once so here at FS you’ll make lightning strike again. Liked how even while you were taking shots at HBK you were also defending yourself and your belief in the ‘Hustle, Loyalty, & Respect’ & ‘Rise Above Hate’ philosophies. Nice way to end it with Cena setting the bar high by claiming that when this is all said and done he’ll be both US & WHC.
Zack Ryder This promo was just great from beginning to end. I haven’t seen an episode of Zack’s show myself, so I can’t really compare, but it really felt and sounded like something you probably would see on the show. You did a great job portraying Zack’s words and mannerisms and there was plenty of comedy to go around with him saying he did a movie in place of the Rock and that whole bit with Zack dad. I’m not sure what else to say about it other that it was a great promo and probably one of my favorites so far. Definitely looking forward to what you do as Ryder in the future.
Mason Ryan I really enjoyed the opening paragraph with you ragging on HBK and then talking about how you feel that you are purposely being held back despite what you’re managed to accomplish during your undefeated run in the company. It sucks that Pats left you hanging because a promo with both Mason and Goldberg in it would have been interesting to read, but you did the best you could despite the circumstances. Mason continuing being his usual cocky self, especially when it comes to his streak was good to read, and I want to see if he actually does begin chasing titles now that things with Goldberg is all done.
Batista/Brodus Clay So in the beginning I liked how Batista chronicled some of his past endeavors and then talked about what was going through his mind when he challenged for the belt at Xtreme-Xmas and then lost. He was feeling down and out but watching people compete for the title he failed to acquire lit a fire in him that made him come back for another run at thing. You portrayed Batista pretty nicely with how you had him yell and be more aggressive here and there with his delivery and how you made it clear that you’ll go back to dominating the way you should. The shot at Mason Ryan was pretty cheap tho, considering he’s been a Batista than you. Learn some respect. smh. Definitely enjoyed the Brodus Clay bit, dunno who wrote up his lines, but they were great and I felt that Clay def got the best of Batista though they never really got a back and forth going, which was a brief let down. But I loved that mini fight and this is a feud that I’m going to be keeping an eye on. Great stuff.
Christian I can see what you tried to do with leading the fans on, but it may have been better if you dragged the ‘I’m sorry’ stuff on a little bit longer before laughing at the people for being so gullible. The announcement that Christian would now be on Redemption was surprising, though I was a little taken aback by him saying that he would become the best on the roster, but with Chavo gone I guess that’s fair to say. All around it was a solid promo, and as usual whenever someone calls out another superstar I’m curious to see if it will lead to anything, and the same goes here with what you said about John Cena.
Michael McGillicutty The relationship between Michael and Mitch is an amusing one, and it only got better in this seg with Michael inviting him to a barren desert looking place, (nice, unique locale for a promo btw), and then leaving him there. That line at the end about McGillicutty and his proverbial path to Final Stand was great, and if he doesn’t show up on an ATV I’ll be a bit disappointed. As usual McGillicutty is oozing confidence and making it seem like it won’t have any issues at all in the Gaunlet or MitB, and I enjoyed reading his snide comments towards the rest of the people competing in the match. Nice promo all around, and I’m looking forward to seeing if you can deliver tonight at Final Stand.

The crowd cheers as the main event video package comes to a close and we are brought to the commentators table where King and JR are discussing what they just saw.
{JR}: Boy King, I can't wait to see Wade Barrett and Justin Gabriel face off for the World Heavyweight Championship! Who do you give the edge to?
{King}: Wade Barrett. He has a lot of momentum going into this match after winning last night's tag team match, not to mention he's proven in the recent past that he might just be the future of this company.
{JR}: Well don't underestimate Justin Gabriel, he's one of the most athletic wrestlers in the XWL locker room! He can perform moves that no one else can! Like that 450 Splash!
The camera pans out to show the full ring when suddenly a familiar theme begins to play
{JR}: Oh great, look who it is.
John Morrison enters to the crowd's boo's and quickly performs his signature taunt as his stage pyro shoots up
{King}: It's John Morrison! If you think that the moves that Justin Gabriel can do are impressive just wait until you see the Prince of Parkour in action!
{JR}: Well I've had the displeasure of meeting John Morrison earlier tonight and I've got to tell you King, that man has an ego the size of a mountain! He even calls himself The Guru of Greatness when the fact of the matter is he lost once again last week, this time to Kofi Kingston.
Morrison slides into the ring and jumps up the corner turnbuckle to perform his signature taunt once again as the crowd continues to boo him
The tron shows a replay of Kofi Kingston hitting the S.O.S. on Morrison and picking up the win
{King}:Well he may be coming off a slump but I wouldn't be surprised if John Morrison surprises us all.
John Morrison is shown smirking at the tron as the replay comes to a close before he begins to talk over the "Boom Boom Boom" chants
{John Morrison}: Shhhhhhhh, Settle down, settle down, I know you're all overwhelmed with jealousy and longing at the mere sight of me which gives you more than enough of a reason to boo yourselves as you're doing, after all I am The Shaman of Sexy, The Guru of Greatness, The Honcho of Hotness, The Ambassador of Abdominals, and most importantly the future X-Treme Champion!
Morrison pauses as the crowd boos grow louder
{Cole}: Now that's spoken like a true champion!
{JR}: Nice of you to join us Cole.
{Cole}: Hey, I was busy reading the most recent XWL tweets! Did you know that "Wade vs. Gabriel", "Ted > Rock", and "Z! True Long Island Story" are all trending right now?
{JR}: No, I was busy listening to John Morrison ramble!
Morrison raises the mic once again and continues to speak
{John Morrison}: Now I hoped you DVRed last week's Breakdown because that's going to be the last time that you see John Morrison lose to the likes of Kofi Kingston! If the two of us ever step foot in the ring again I'm Ghana C-4 him so hard that he'll think he's back in Jamaica!
Morrison laughs at his own joke before continuing
{John Morrison}: But that's besides the point, when you look as good as I do wins and losses start to not matter, I'm the center of attention regardless. All I have to do is flash my six pack and all the ladies eyes are on me! But I'm more than just good.. great looks, I may look like Tarzan but I certainly don't hit like Jane! My parkour training routine has gotten me into the best shape of my life, I'm capable of performing physical feats that no other man backstage would even think of doing, and what all of you pathetic, fat, lazy, fans dream you could do!
{Cole}: Well he has a point! You should look into parkour training JR, maybe it will get rid of that big gut of yours!
{JR}: Shut it Cole.
{John Morrison}: William Blake once said the road of excess leads to the Palace of Wisdom. And that’s where I dwell. I would ask you all to join me but we don't let nerds hang out in the Palace of Wisdom. So while I seek enlightenment you'll be stuck in your lemming like ways, wasting your hourly wage on the newest John Cena T-Shirt or Zack Ryder headband when you really should be investing in work out equipment so that you can achieve your dream of being just a little more like me!
{JR}: I doubt anyone wants to be anything like him!
{John Morrison}: Some are born to sweet delight and others born to endless night, feast your eyes on the future X-Treme Champion and the only man to beat Chuck Norris in a arm wrestling contest.. feats your eyes on greatness!
Morrison drops the mic and stretches out his arms in a cocky fashion as his theme plays
Morrison slides out of the ring and begins to make his way up the ramp as Final Stand rolls on

As Final Stand continues we go to a short video package highlighting Dolph Ziggler, AJ Styles and Joey Ryan who will be competing later on in the show for the Intercontinental title, as the video package comes to a close the camera goes to view shots of the crowd in attendance before a quickly becoming well known theme hits the P.A as the crowd give a uproar of boos towards it…
Joey walks out onto the grand stage looking at the incredible atmosphere trying to soak up the boo’s as much as he can. He walks out with his hood up and sunglasses on just walking down to the ring and can be heard shouting “I AM THE NEXT INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION!” As he approaches the ring he jumps up onto one knee on the outside of the ring before picking himself up and jumping through the second rope. He outstretches his arms and walks around a few paces trying to rally up the crowd and it seems to be working. He walks over to where a ringworker is and asks for a mic.
Joey Ryan Final Stand IV. The place where dreams are supposedly made and this is the biggest event on the XWL calendar. And look what we’ve already seen. Batista, some fat dude noone really knows interrupting Batista, Christian, Sheamus, HHH and even Zack Ryder have all already returned but that didn’t even budge the ratings. Now Joey Ryan is in this ring ratings are through the roof because everyone knows sleazy is where it is at baby!,. I am the newest, hottest, most charismatic superstar in that locker room back there. I have been in the back smoking, drinking a fresh Hollywood styles Strawberry Shake and watching full reruns of Magnum PI, just because I am too damn good to waste my time training and preparing for my match like all of them losers in the back.
Joey Ryan Now lets just look at where we are tonight, Houston, Texas. The place where all you people are probably from, the most boring place in the whole of the united states and the place which is the least sleaziest place in the world. I mean have you seen yourselfs lately? Half of you just look like some fat hillbillies you don’t even know what day it is and probably find your own entertainment by just kicking each others teeth down your throat. I was searching for 3 hours last night and I couldn’t even find a 70’s diner! That just proves how uncapable this city is to host a huge superstar such as Joey Ryan. But that’s ok, no need to give the hostile reaction because you all picked a great night to get down to watch a wrestling show tonight because this is Final Stand IV! This is Joey Ryans first ever pay per view inside an XWL ring and this is where the era of Sleazy will start to begin because when I defeat Dolph Ziggler and AJ Styles and leave them in this ring a battered bloody mess I will move on and I will look towards turning this company on its back bone as you know it.
Joey Ryan Dolph Ziggler, the man who currently holds the intercontinental title. The man who calls himself a showoff and finally the man who put his hands on me and assaulted me last week costing me my match against Edge. My very first defeat at XWL was because of Dolph Ziggler. I tried to do him a favour when I superkicked AJ Styles last week and how does he repay me? With a Zig Zag which left me with serious neck pain and hardly unable to compete. The doctors, management and backroom staff all said I could go home and rest but I went out like the honourable man I am and I took it on the chin but I lost. That was not my fault. So tonight, because Dolph made me lost my first match I am going to make him lose his precious title. When I get my hands on that intercontinental title you all better know this show is just starting to get a little more sleazy. I am going to make a change and starting next week, when I become champion I am going to bring a little bit of Hollywood straight to XWL!
Joey Ryan Now a man who knows nothing about Hollywood, AJ Styles. This is a man who seemingly tried to retire from this business last year. Now he should have just stayed away and not tried to interfere because this title is mine and you know you can’t do anything on your own AJ, you always have and always will need a little personal bitch to take the heat. That’s why you joined fortune right? You and Kazarian teaming up? But that’s fine because I’m sure he’ll be a nice shoulder to cry on when I crush your dreams of ever becoming close to an Intercontinental champion. I have only been here for a few weeks and just look at what I am going to accomplish, I am the fastest rising star ever seen and that is all because I am the total package. I have the looks, I bring in the ratings, I have the charisma, the personality and I back up every little thing I say in this ring. Tonight I mean it when I say I am going to walk out of here the Intercontinental Champion, you can all bet your sleazy asses on that.
Joey Ryan I can’t wait; I mean I can’t wait for this match to happen we are all young superstars with bright futures ahead of us. The only problem being is if you look at Dolph Ziggler you see a man with a personality and if you look at AJ Styles you see a man with great in ring skills but if you look at Joey Ryan you see a man who can do all that and more while still getting the nearest girls phone number. I am an icon, I am the greatest thing to ever come out of Hollywood, I am the technical wizard and I am Joey Ryan. The sleaziest champion you will ever see. Just look at me a young hungry superstar on the verge of making history, exciting isn’t it? I’ve been a champion in so many different companies and now XWL is going to see just what sleazy is about because what comes with a title is power and when Joey Ryan has power bad things happen to the backbone structure of this company you all know and love. XWL universe when I become champion I will piss on your rules, I will rape your integrity and I will ooze sleazyness all over your class and modern culture…Lights, camera’s, action!
Joey drops the mic to a loud booing coming from the fans, he looks on before throwing his hood down and slowly walking out of the ring. The camera fades out with Joey walking up the ramp to a video package highlighting previous Final Stand main events in years gone by…

That doesn't really matter though, it was ftw. Rock wins First Fall and then we move into the Second Fall which is a Steel Cage Match. Ending to the second fall was awesome and if that didn't happen, I would've been a little disappointed because it's a steel cage match and I'm glad the cage was used to end the match basically. Oh and yeah, boo Ted winning. Just Kidding, David. Third fall came, blah blah blah, want to get to reviewing that epic Ryder promo now. Damn that Rock and making Ted his bitch. Expected Ted to win this tbh, but first shocker of Final Stand just happened there. Epic write up, defiantly has a chance of being match of the show.
) After a little bit of talking, Cena talks about who he basically is which was pretty good. The promo come to an end he mentions how he never had a chance and now it's his time.
Also good obvious win later in the show.
. But thought this promo was definetly pretty in character for Christian and should provide some future great promos.
