The start of Matt Sydal's all too familiar music sends the once calm audience into an instant "BOO!" upon the realization that he's about to come to the ring, and although he said all he probably had to say in his interview with Dolph...just seeing his smug expression is reason enough for this crowd to want him nowhere near the ringside area.
As the lights flash at the stage, all eyes unanimously roll, noticing movement behind the curtain which can only mean he'll be within their gaze far sooner than they'd have liked.
[Mauro Ranallo] The XWL Universe not holding back their feelings in regards to Matt Sydal.
[Corey Graves] You can boo The Golden Ticket to this company's future all you like, but that's not going to change the path this man is on. He is one of the best Superstars in this company, his accomplishments are a mile long, and he's more motivated than ever.
[Mauro Ranallo] Perhaps, but you can't expect the fans to cheer for a man that just heartlessly broke up with the woman that underwent public shame for even getting with him in the first place.
[Corey Graves] He's not the one that was making secret calls to Eric Young, she is...and she got caught in a web of lies that Matt is too perfect to fall for.
A figure appears at last, stretching his arms out soaking in all the boos as if they motivate him to piss them off even more by winning against the two huge favorites that join him in this match.
[Corey Graves] This is a match months in the making, never before have we seen three men cross paths for so long, and not have the standard Triple Threat encounter from the get go.
[Mauro Ranallo] Very true this has been a rather unique situation, Matt Sydal of course took on both Shinsuke Nakamura and Eric Young in one on one encounters back at Downpour. Or I should say, was supposed to until Matt blatantly disqualified himself against Nakamura, which lead to The King of Strong Style himself being named as special guest referee in Matt's match with Eric Young.
[Corey Graves] But The Golden One himself proving to be too good to be screwed, found a way to overcome the odds against him, when Shinsuke shockingly delivered a brutal knee to Eric's temple as he went for a cover on Matt following The EY Driver. This then lead Shinsuke to throw Matt on top of Eric, and grant a victory to the true deserving man Sydal.
[Mauro Ranallo] However tonight, it is one hundred percent every man for himself, and Matt won't have Shinsuke to aid him in victory, in fact Matt has specifically stated he is doing this match on his own, and he's going to prove he's the better man.
The shroud of lights clear up, revealing Matt on the stage, still with his arms stretched wide, sporting his usual golden attire, with a jacket that clearly reads "2Perfect4U" on the left side, with a hashtagged phrase on the right that says "#GoldenTicket" each letter of every word in a bright bold gold.
As the lights continue to flash, his stand still pose ends, and he makes a quick beeline down the ramp, leaping up, sliding under the bottom rope showing off his arrogant athleticism rising up with a smug grin across his face that's in full view when the lights return to normal.
Sydal is talking to the referee telling him to keep his eye on Nakamura only to see a man holding a violin gently placed on his shoulder. A spotlight dawns over him, he takes the bow and presses it against the violin. This creates a harmonic sound and you can hear him imitating the beginning chord of Nakamura’s entrance. Matt throws his hands up in the air "Here we go again.."
Everything suddenly stops and pauses, the lights turn to a dark red and the violin is turned into a more comfortable position. He strokes the hell out of it, picking up speed greatly and plucking the bow. Another unexpected pause and you can hear the crowd get up to their feet cheering on the violinist.
The lights dim with a strange sound toppling over the speakers. A profound violin strum plays softly and energetically all at once. A serrated green frequency bar goes along with this intro fluttering at every chance.
After the song builds, red dots flash long enough to distort your vision for a few seconds.
The dots fade away and only a couple letter’s are shown “S H I N” Everyone in attendance start a frenzy It continues. SUKE NAKAMURA in red bold letters. The minitron and arena lights illuminating the jacket of Nakamura as he walks casually onto the middle of the stage. “NAKAMURA” “NAKAMURA” the crowd bellows out whilst hovering over the barricade..
[Corey Graves] I don't envy Matt Sydal one bit, Nakamura looks red hot and he's brought a friend with him for this special event, Emergence. The crowd is loving this, and so am I, Mary.
Shinsuke drops to his one knee and sends his one arm sky high. Putting his hand on the stage, the violinist increases his speed and the lights flicker to go in sync. Bouncing back up to his feet , twisting his hands over one another, swaying around with his head tilting side to side. The slow motion sensor picking up his movements slightly. Touching his chest with the back of his palm, the other hand raised in the air swung to the sky. The sensor stops and the urge to shake himself around starts to take control. He’s got a pep in his step, whimsically down the ramp.
Striking a pose, a ninja pose! Flashing his mouthpiece smirking because he can. Meeting eye to eye with the violinist, he starts to move gracefully and goes beside him to have a moment. Shaking his hands to the beat, losing himself in the moment. Both hands over the top of one another, sending signals to every single person in the arena.
[Mauro Ranallo] Certainly does, will see the King Of Strong Style go to battle and come out victorious tonight against two very gamed competitors in Matt Sydal and Eric Young. Many mind games were at play, nobody has won.. we find out tonight.
The curve in the theme allows him to almost have a seizure in his rock out moment. Clashing with dizziness, pulls himself together still acting wild. In a crazy fashion going up the apron and walking with swag along the outer skirts.Bouncing with his shoulders and his eyes widened. Under the 2nd rope he goes and greets the middle of the ring. Covering his mouth with his hand, The sound of the music suddenly meets a drop, along with Nakamura as he bursts to the side of the rope.
[Corey Graves] Absolutely tremendous, It gets better each time I see it. You know, you have to wonder if breaking up with Renee, will take a toll on Sydal's mind, and I for one wouldn't want to have space filling my head when in the ring with a man that can kick my head clean off!
Holding onto it with the mightiest grip of all time. Throwing his right arm carelessly into the wind. Stretching backwards to meet his head to the 2nd rope. Launching his right arm down to the mat as he bends his knees completely until he’s touching the mat. The pose causes hundreds of cameras to flash and leaves tingling sensations through everyone’s heart.
Spinning in a 360, moving his fingers as if he’s grabbing onto someone or something.. He hears the crowd on each side of him and stands front and center. Closing his eyes he bobs his head to the rhythm and his legs and arms rattle along with his face. Sending a YEAHOH! bolt to the mat Shinsuke blows this entrance off it’s heels. Zooming out quickly as possible, the entrance music begins to fade. The fans hum the sound of his theme music to keep it going. “OOOH OHH OHH OHHH, UHHH DA DA DA DA DUH WOOH OHH OHH” and he sticks his tongue out playing along.
Feeling the energy pulse through him, Nakamura rises up from his glorious position and to the turnbuckle. Having some pre-match stretches with his legs perched high up on the 3rd turnbuckle. He stares directly into the eyes of Matt Sydal who is clapping away mocking Shinsuke's glorious entrance, although doesn't want to admit it. The referee keep the two apart, and they wait for Eric Young restlessly.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE"
The crowd stops singing the theme song, all of them shifting towards the stage. Once more the voice rings out.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE"
The crowd pops as a figure appears on stage. He comes out, dressed in a sweatervest, khakis and slip ons. He smiles, though tonight is not a night most would want to be a part of is they were in his shoes. Matt Striker. He looks around at the crowd, mic in hand as the crowd cheers for him.
[Corey Graves] This fool shouldn't be out here! He has a match to prepare for!
[Mauro Ranallo] He's here to support his buddy too. Give him credit for trying to manage both.
Matt Striker raises his mic in his left hand, his right hand promptly behind his back as he begins to speak.
[Matt Striker] Thank you. I would like to first start off by saying tonight, is a night for the ages. You have champions and challengers, gladiators and warriors alike. You have predator and prey, and most importantly you have classic matches ready to take place. However, tonight is also a special night for myself. Tonight is not only the night my best friend, Eric Young walks down that ramp and kicks the ass of two, hateful, rude, pathetic men. But also the night I make my in ring return against the one and only, garden snake, Randy Orton. The crowd still seems to cheer, but it has grown a bit more mixed as he goes on.
[Matt Striker] Tonight is a night of triumph and tribulation and I'm pleased to be present, right here, right now. I've also been graced with the honor, NO, the privledge of introducing one of the greatest wrestlers in XWL today. A man with a big heart, and an even bigger beard. A man who will be determined and driven. HE IS THE SHOWTIME. THE UNDERDOG. THE BEARDED HERO. HE IS THE ONE, THE ONLY, ERICCCCCCCC, YOUNG!
Striker turns dramatically, pointing to the stage, the lights going out all around the arena, except for the titantron.
The crowd pops as the lights come up, green and flashing, setting the mood for the arrival of Eric Young. As the song really gets started, Young appears from behind the curtain, looking up into the distance. He comes stomping out, walking to center stage, then slowly turning his gaze to the ring, smirking at his opponents for the evening.
[Mauro Ranallo] Is it just me or has Eric Young just had a whole new attitude here recently?
[Corey Graves] Of course he has Ranallo, he's here to make a statement, not here to sing songs.
[Mauro Ranallo] I don't know if it's a good change.
[Corey Graves] He didn't do it for you. He did it for him.
He then turns his entire body to the stage, taking off down the ramp. He high fives Striker as he comes by, darting past him without hesitation. The duo in the ring settle, prepping for battle as Young comes darting down the ramp. Fans reach out for him, but he ignores them, eyes glued on the ring. He slides in, walking right up to the ref, who pushes him back, making sure he doesn't get to Sydal nor Nakamura. He then takes off to the ropes, jumping onto them, grabbing the top rope and looking out into the crowd who cheers him loudly.
Young them jumps down, backing up and rolling his neck, loosening up before the match. He backs into his own corner, not bothering going right after either of his opponents as he'll gladly get his chance in mere moments.
[Mauro Ranallo] Matt's looking for a German Suplex!
[Corey Graves] But The King Of Strong Style is laying into him with some very stiff back elbows.
[Mauro Ranallo] Eric's starting to rise up, perhaps he'll be able to take advantage of this situation.
[Corey Graves] Shinsuke with The Irish whip that's sent Matt to the corner but...SPRINGBOARD he's launching off the corner with a cross body...
[Mauro Ranallo] And Shinsuke with the strategic shove to Eric, sending him into the corner past Sydal, side stepping...and now Matt's crashed and burned!

[Mauro Ranallo] HE'S DONE IT, THE GOLDEN TICKET LIVES TRUE TO HIS PROMISE!
[Corey Graves] Was there ever any doubt?
The LAST person they wanted to come out victorious in this match, has now pinned Shinskuke Nakamura. As his music fills the building, you hear nothing but boos, and see disappointed fans sitting on their hands, not even wanting to give him the satisfaction of booing him. Matt, being the very humble man that he is...immediately jumps to his feet, arrogance oozing from every part of his being, as he shouts "ME! I'M THE WINNER! ME!!!!! MEEEEE!!! I'M THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH, I'M BETTER THAN THEM, ME!!!!"
[Corey Graves] Soak it in Mauro, because that man right there? He will be World Heavyweight Champion VERY soon!
[Mauro Ranallo] You may be right, he's been on a roll, and this victory? Defeating two very game competitors, is certainly quite the statement.
[Corey Graves] Could you imagine when Dolph wins Money in The Bank if he ends up meeting Matt Sydal for The World Title? TALK ABOUT THE MOST MUST SEE MATCH IN XWL HISTORY!
[Mauro Ranallo] Let's not get ahead of ourselves now, we've got a Fatal Four Way full of VERY talented individuals that all are determined to leave tonight as World Champion.
[Corey Graves] Of course, I'm very excited for that match...but you can't deny, Team Golden Perfection throwing down for the richest prize isn't something the biggest match we've ever seen.
The very vocal winner has his hand raised by an official that wishes he had ear plugs right now, just like all of us...because he still continues to shout obnoxiously "MEEEEE!! MEEEE!!! I'M THE GREATEST SUPERSTAR IN XWL HISTORY!!! I'M THE NEXT WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!! I'M THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH, THE WINNER OF EVERY MATCH, THE WINNER IN LIFE, THE WINNER OF THIS COMPANY, I....AM....THE GOLDEN TICKET....AND I'M A WINNER BABY!" After proclaiming the obvious, that he's the winner....he steps over his fallen opponents, leaping up onto the second rope, continuing to shout, as his hands raise....and.....gold confetti begins to rain down....as if he just won a title, even though...he didn't.
[Corey Graves] Look at that!
[Mauro Ranallo] Oh believe me I couldn't miss it if I tried...he's certainly a gracious winner.
[Corey Graves] The most gracious, the most golden, NOW THIS IS A CELEBRATION!
Our view almost is blind to what's going on at this point, the excess of gold strip of paper cascading down is a visual that's certainly befitting the level of energy he's put into his celebration. We just see Matt standing atop the corner, arms stretched wide, as confetti covers him, the ring, the entire ringside area, even his fallen opponents....and unfortunately our vision may be cloudy, but our hearing...is very much still in tact...as he again shouts "I'M THE BEST, MEEEEE!!! MEEE!! DO YOU HEAR MEEEEE?! I'M THE WINNER, ME!!!!! MEEEEEEEE! DO YOU HEAR MEEEE!??? I'M YOUR WINNER OF THE MATCH, AND I'M THE NEXT WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" After professing again, the same statement he's professed since the referee's three count...the boys in the production truck do us a solid, and fade away from the apparently never ending victory parade Matt Sydal is on. Even as we fade, we still can hear until the very last second...."MEEEEEE!! I'M THE GREATEST!!! I'M THE GOLDEN TICKET, AND I'M A WINNER BABY!!!"
