Joel Cronus:  Hello San Francisco!  We bring the second and final lead up card to -=- a fall from grace -=-, and our first match of the night is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, Mr. Money ROBERT R. RICH!  And his opponent, the AMBASSADOR!

Dan Timberland:  Welcome ladies and gentlemen for this afternoon's card.  And a special welcome to my commentator, the lovely Miss Sarah Jackson.

Sarah Jackson:  Thanks Dan, we've got quite a day in front of us don't we?

Dan:  We sure do, headlined by Chameleon vs Shawn Twilight match that should be for the ages.  Let's get down to our first match in the ring...

**DING,DING**

Sarah:  And Money is not wasting any time with an assortment of drop kicks to Ambassador.  And now he's applying a surfboard submission.

Dan:  Quite a quick start from the money man, I guess his fellow stable mates in the m.o.a. must have game him quite a pre-game speech.  And what's that all that commotion I hear...

Sarah:  Dan, it looks as if War has made his way to top of the entry way.  He's really eyeing Ambassador, but he's not coming towards ringside yet.

Dan:  'Yet' is the important word there.  And it looks as if the Ambassador is taking it up a notch after seeing his long time nemesis from the XWL.  He's managed to reverse the hold on Money and roll him in a Victory Roll...

*1...2..and a kick out!

Sarah:  Ambassador is very technically sound.  He's applying an arm bar submission and keeping Money on the mat.

Dan:  Uh oh... it looks like War is slowly starting to make his way down to ringside.  And he's distracting Ambassador, Money rolls him up!

*1..2...KICKOUT

Sarah: Ambassador gets up and delivers a monstrous body slam to Money! That could've shook the entire bay area!  But here comes War!

Dan:  Ambassador meets him with a right hook!  It knocks War from the ring apron!  Ambassador covers!

*1...2...3*

Sarah: But it isn't over for Ambassador yet.  War is in the ring and it appears that he's got a chain around his fist! *CRACK* Oh my, he just crushed Ambassador in the face!

Dan:  Ambassador is down and out and now War and Money are double teaming him! War is scraping that chain on his face and chest.  This is getting way out of hand.

Sarah:  More Boos coming from the crowd?  It's BANE!  He's out here to save his fellow stable mate Ambassador!  War exits through the crowd and Money escapes in the opposite direction.  This is quite a scene.  Bane standing over his fallen comrade surrounded by a pool of blood.

Dan:  They are definitely going to need a lot of medical attention once they get him to the back.

RESULT:  Ambassador via a Power slam in 7:15

Dan:  It looks like they are cleaning up in the ring so we're now going to shift over to next to ringside where Sarah has an interview with the man who is to meet Stone on the 5th, Mike Smarts!

(Smarts' music plays as he walks down to the ring with a mannequin in his hands.  The mannequin is a female wearing a red dress.)

Sarah: (puzzled) What is this?

(Smarts throws the dummy in the ring.  He climbs in and is thrown a mic.)

Sarah: Well, I guess we're about to find out.

Smarts: Can anyone guess who I am here with in this ring?

(Smarts cups his hand around his ears.  Several names are chanted.)

Smarts: Stone?  NO No, but that's a good guess.....  Styx?  Guess again. (crowd quiets, bewildered.)  Well, we've got to get started.  So, Miss CRIMSON, how are you doing today?  (Smarts is drowned out in boos.)  So, what brings you here?... What, me?  Well, isn't hat something.... Oh, please, stop it.  Your such a flirt.

Sarah:  This is sick, get this man outta here.

Smarts:  So, Miss Crimson, got any plans for tonight... Really....Well, yeah, I guess I could come over.

Sarah:  If Misery saw this.....

(Just then, Misery comes storming out from behind the curtain.  Smarts makes a few gestures to Miss Crimson.  He lifts the dress up off the dummy. When Misery slides under the ropes, Smarts flees through the crowd.  Misery
grabs the mic.)

Misery: Sma....

Loudspeaker: EEEUUGUHHHHHHHHH!!!  WWWWHHHHATTT AAA RRUUSHHHHHH!!!

Sarah: OH MY!!

(crowd goes wild as Rush's music blares.  Rush appears through the curtain, carrying a duffle bag.  Misery stares at Rush.  Rush walks down the aisle.  Halfway to the ring, he stops as Twilight, and the Charm appear from the curtain.)

(Rush motions for Twilight and Charm to stay where they are.  He continues to the ring.  He circles the ring and spots a cameraman sitting in a chair by ringside.  He snatches the camera and nails the man with it.  He throws the camera aside and takes the chair.)

Sarah: SECURITY!!!

(Rush throws the chair into the ring. Rush climbs onto the ring apron.  Misery grabs the chair.  Rush asks for a mic.)

Rush: SIT DOWN!!  SIT!!

(Misery just stands there staring at Rush)

Misery: What's in the bag?

Rush: My equipment.  Special one-time deal.

Misery: So you're finally coming out of the closet?

Rush: Oh, your real funny.  Now,
hello San Francisco.  You know, everybody is here to see the legend make a little speech.  Now, I planned to do this later, but seeing as Smarts managed to get you here, I figured, why not now.... Hold on, there.  Hey, I  think I got something here.

(Rush pillages through his bag.  He pulls out two hats.  He throws the first to Misery, and puts the second one on.  His reads: I felt the Misery. Misery looks at his: I felt the RUSH.  )

Rush: Wait, that's not it.  Got some T-shirts here.

(Rush pulls out several black T-shirts.  He throws one to Misery, tosses two in the direction of Twilight and The Charm, and puts the final one on.  On the front, the shirts read:

                       Misery

               -=- A Fall From Grace -=-

On the back:

                          Bane
 
               -=- A fall on his face -=-
 
 

Rush: Now, I told you I had a question to ask, and here it is.  We've done horrible things to each other.  You to me.  Me to you.  But, I can put all of it behind me because I respect you.  Can you put it behind you???

Misery: .....

Crowd:.....

(Rush extends his hand.  Misery just stares at him.  Misery stares at Rush's hand.  He shakes it.  The crowd goes wild.  Rush walks off, back down the aisle.  As he passes the camera, he says, "Hey, Bane, at A Fall From Grace, your gonna land right on your face.")

Dan:  What an weird circumstance.  Misery is still in the ring with Twilight and The Charm.  Rush is making his way down the aisle way, and **BAM!!** Oh MY!  Bane just came out from behind the curtain and leveled Rush with a trash can to the head!  Rush is DOWN!  Misery is coming down the Aisle!  and Bane leaves... Smarts is helping Rush get to his feet and to the back... Let's go back to the ring for some more action...

Joel Cronus:  Our next match is scheduled for tag team action! First off the MAC and BLAZER!  And newly added to the card, due to problems with the AWA, representing the m.O.a. BLOOD and ICE!

*DING,DING*

Dan:  Blood and Ice are coming in off an emotional high in victories in the WCIWA.  And they're filling in for the representatives that were never chosen for the AWA.  Mac and Blazer had no idea who they were going to face tonight... so they were expecting to not know who they were going to fight.

Sarah:  It looks like they are starting it off with Ice and the Mac.  And Mac quickly nails him with a shot to the midsection, and quickly setting him up for a Power Bomb!

Dan:  But the WCIWA Intercontinental Champ Ice, reverses it into a Monster Piledriver.  The Mac quickly rolls to his corner and tags into the Blazer.  Blazer comes in with a big boot to the face of Ice taking him down to the mat.

Sarah:  Blazer is really packing it on now!  There a gigantic leg drop and he's going to the second rope.  Body Splash!  And he's playing it smart by dragging it into the corner of their own.  Now he tags in The Mac.

Dan:  They are really dominating the beginning of this match.  The Mac keeps Ice in their corner still with a serious of elbow-drops, and he's rolling out to the outside.  He's applying a ring post figure four!  That's amazing...

Sarah:  Here comes Blood and he breaks it up, but Blazer greets him with a fist to the jaw after breaking the figure four on the ring.  Now they're going at it while Mac drags Ice to the middle of the ring.  Mac's covering...

*1...2..KICKOUT!

Dan:  That was CLOSE!  I could've swore that was Three.  And Mac looks frustrated.  He's going to the top-rope and he delivers a splash.

Sarah:  Blood just nailed Blazer on the outside with a chair!

Dan:  Mac covers after the pin!

*1...2....Another KICKOUT

Dan:  The Mac throws his arms in disgust.  He's taking him to the corner again, and he hasn't noticed that his partner is down.  He climbs the ropes... And Blood catches him with a REVERSE DDT out of nowhere from the TOP ROPE!

**DING,DING**

Sarah:  The referee has called for the bell.  But Blood isn't done... he's brought that chair he nailed Blazer with and he nailing Mac in the back of the skull!  Finally it looks like the other referees and security from the back while be able to escort both teams to the back...

RESULT:  The Mac and Blazer via DisQualification in 8:59.

Joel Cronus:  The next match is between the current XWL Champion... UNLEADED! and his opponent Stone!

Dan:  Stone is an awful underdog in this match up.  Unleaded has been nothing short of completely dominant lately in the XWL.

Sarah:  And as they don't say this is a small world, Chameleon who is stalemates with Unleaded in the Dark Council is set to take on Shawn Twilight who is currently tagging with his M.O.A. rival Stone.

Dan:  You know what they say about six degrees of separation.

Sarah:  Yeah... always connected to those who can't help you, but never connected to those who could make you rich...

Dan:  Okay... Unleaded is off to a quick start.  He just hit Stone with a body slam, and now a drop toe hold.

Sarah:  Why couldn't I just have one cousin's cousin to have some cash...

Dan:  Sarah, the match?

Sarah:  Yeah, but ... WOW! Stone just hit Unleaded with a DDT!

Dan:  He's covering...

*1....2..Kickout

Dan:  And now Unleaded is furious.  He nails him with a kick to the back, now a pedigree, and he's setting him up for the Backfire!

Sarah:  And down goes Stone!  He must have been going through a tough schedule in his other leagues as of late.  Unleaded covers...

*1...2...3

Dan:  But he's not done... Unleaded is setting him up for another Backfire!  And down goes Stone again!  And oh no!  He's setting him up for another one!

Sarah:  Here comes Twilight!?! He's getting Unleaded off of Stone?  I guess he wants to keep his tag partner in good shape.  What does this mean is going on between the m.O.a. and the Fatal Charms?

Dan:  Who knows... I haven't understood much of anything so far tonight.

RESULT:  Unleaded via the Backfire in 5:45.

Joel Cronus:  Our next match is a NO DQ, falls count anywhere match.  Introducing first, STYX! and his opponent THE HARTBREAKER!

Dan: Styx is hobbling really bad, but is still in this match up.  You know that he has to be smarter than this though.

Sarah:  And the Hartbreaker goes right after him, and sends him to the outside.  How come I get the feeling that this one isn't going to end in the ring?

Dan:  Does anything ever going to plan lately?

Sarah:  I guess not.  And Styx isn't letting Hartbreaker get anywhere near him!  A serious of thrown chairs, and oh my he's lifting up the guardrail! And down but he misses Hartbreaker.  Now HB takes the advantage and flings him down the aisle way.  They're heading back into the lockers.

Dan:  And they're passing by Misery who is setting up for coming for his interview which follows right after this.  And HB just went down?  What happened?!?

Sarah:  Misery tripped him!  Why would Misery... i shouldn't even ask... Misery has walked off now as the fight works it's way to the side of the stadium.  HB picks up Styx and delivers him into the the souvenir stand.

Dan:  This has got to be embarrassing, Styx is behind the counter piled with Giants and 49ers hats...

Sarah:  Hey I like the 49ers... there my local team.

Dan: Don't you live in Los Angeles?

Sarah: Yeah, they're still the local team...

Dan:  HB is coming over the counter, but he's met with a cash register!  Styx is throwing everything at him including those dumb foam fingers.

Sarah:  Anything to get an advantage I guess.  He's setting him up for a piledriver on top of the counter!  But HB flips him over with a back body drop!  Styx must have fell ten feet to the floor.  And Hb comes crashing down on him with a splash.  The cover

*1....2...KICKOUT

Dan:  Styx definitely has the heart of the champion.  Hb keeps on the offensive with a load of elbow drops from the counter.  This has got to be taking out something from both wrestlers.  HB misses with his fourth elbow drop after Styx rolls out of the way.  Both men are down!

Sarah:  But HB makes it to his feet first, and he delivers a keg drop on the concrete floor.  He covers again...

*1...2..Kickout

Dan:  Another kick out where any other man with these kinds of injuries would have just taken the three count.  HB is running out of the picture and down the hall to another booth... what is that shop?

Sarah:  It's the beer stand! And HB is rolling a keg of beer down towards Styx.  What's he going to do with it?  There's no way he can lift that thing high enough for any damage.

Dan:  He unpouring it all over Styx, this is horrible.  Styx can't get away.  And HB goes back to the beer stand, what's he getting now?

Sarah:  He got a coke?  For himself in the middle of the match?  He even paid for it?  He's really trying to show up the valiant effort of the injured Styx.

Dan:  He's now setting Styx up for crucifix power bomb... the question is where is he going to drop him down.  And OH NO! He's just unloaded him through the programs stand!  We're going to need some real medical attention now...  The cover...

*1...2...3*

RESULT:  The Hartbreaker via a crucifix power bomb through the Programs stand.

Sarah:  You have to give Styx an enormous amount of credit for just showing up tonight.  You can only wonder what kind of shape he'll be in when he has to face Shawn Twilight next week.

Dan:  Sarah is now making her way to the ring, where she shall interview the man who is facing Bane, his retirement, and his reality all in one night next week, Misery.

(Misery makes his entrance with Twilight at his side)

Sarah:  First off, what's the deal with you and Rush?

Misery:  You know what?  I truly don't know.  All I remember is trashing him a week ago, and now he wants my respect so I'll give it to him.  Hell he put up with me for a few months, if anybody can do that with out going completely over the edge they deserve it.

Sarah:  And what about your small interference in the Styx and Hartbreaker match?

Misery:  So Hartbreaker just happened to get in the way of my foot, what am I supposed to do about that.  Hope he's not getting all high after beating Styx though, the man was obviously in no condition to wrestle, and he still gave it all he could.

Sarah:  And now yours thoughts on the big match, and your final match, next week against Bane.

(The PA system explodes with a buzz a then a picture of Bane comes up on the video wall.  )

Bane:  Hold up there Mizy, you haven't wrestled for a week right?

Misery: Bite...

Bane:  SHUT UP! I didn't ask you to talk. I just imposed a question.  Why don't you get a little action since I've been wrestling all week... why not have a little pre game match.  Me and You.  You can speak...

Misery:  You know the answer.  Where?

Bane:  Right up here.

(Misery looks up into the San Francisco sky [3Com is outside for all who don't follow], and sees nothing)

Misery:  Where?

Bane:  Right Here.

Misery:  I don't see you at all.  Bring your ass down here.

Bane:  Oh that's just like you, you know you can see me.  You know it, and you just don't want to realize that you're going to lose next week.

Misery:  What?  Where the hell are you?

Bane:  That's enough of your little tail between you legs act if you can't see me when I'm right above you then...

(a fan with a hot dog passes by the black screen behind Bane)

Bane: Uhhh...wow.. it's uhh kinda uh busy up here... (to side) someone go trash that punk (back to camera)  yeah you're scared that's it... (to side) let me get a hold of that stupid motherfu...

(feed breaks off)

Sarah:  Will it was pretty obvious he was just settin you up again.

Misery:  I feel actually sorry for the guy cause he has to live his entire career behind a smoke screen.  Always has a reason when he encounters failure.  Always has a back up plan.  Someone like is deserving to be up on such a high pedestal that he pouts his own self at.  I'm going to bring him down.  I'm going to make him fall from his own grace far before he's ever ready to.  And I'm going to show him where I've been.  What it's like to be me.  Then maybe he'll realize for once, that everything that he thought was BS coming from my mouth, was nothing more than a warning of his own fate. 'night

(Misery walks off down the aisle way, and Twilight stays in the ring waiting for the next match)

Joel Cronus:  All right ladies and gentlemen, are you ready for our final match of the night?  Introducing first, already in the ring, SHAWN TWILIGHT!  And now coming down the aisle way, the nine-time XWL Xtreme Champion, CHAMELEON!

Dan:  This is going to be quite a match,  Everybody in the entire stadium is on their feet already!

*DING,DING*

Sarah:  Twilight pounces on Chameleon quickly after nailing him with a lariat.  There's a kick to stomach and a doctor bomb.  Now he bounces off the ropes and goes for the cross body splash, but Chameleon ducks down and under it!  Chameleon now with a suplex.

Dan:  It looks like he into weakling the back of Twilight to set him up for the Superior Suplex off the top rope.

Sarah:  Twilight rages back with a load of right hands to the jaw of Chameleon.  And he delivers a slightly off-centered Thrust kick to the stomach.

Dan:  He would've loved to have hit him in the chin with that one, and this one would've already been over.  Now Twilight applying a Boston Crab.

Sarah:  Chameleon reaches the ropes, and Twilight releases the hold.  Now Twilight sets him up for a  FISHERMAN'S SUPLEX!

Dan:  But he's far to close to the ropes...!! He released half way threw and Chameleon flew all the way to the railing on the outside.  I've never seen anything like this before.  Twilight comes over the top rope with a somersault splash, and MISSES!  He goes head first into the railing and appears to be cut really bad!

Sarah:  Some of the blood has found it's way onto Chameleon which gives him a quick wake up call.  He gets back up and rolls Twilight into the ring.  Look at all the blood coming from Twilight's upper right eye.

Dan:  He's cut it right below the eyebrow it appears, and the blood is streaming over the eye.  Deja Vu from last week?

Sarah:  Who knows Dan.  Chameleon is taking this opportunity to nail him with a number of quick leg drops.  Twilight rolls back to the outside.

Dan:  Chameleon goes out to, and he's setting up Twilight for an Irish whip into the ring steps, but it's Reversed!  OH NO! Chameleon must have tripped on the camera man's cord, cause he just landed head first into those steps.  He's bleeding profusely now as well.  This is getting to be a blood bath.

Sarah:  Twilight staggers to his feet, and rolls into the ring, as does Chameleon.  Twilight goes for another Thrust kick, but he doesn't connect.  Chameleon takes out his other leg!  He's setting him up for a power bomb, and down goes Twilight into the canvas.  The cover..

*1...2...Kickout

Dan:  That's amazing!  Look at the circle of blood where that pin just took place.  Now, chameleon taking him over into the corner.  He's going for the Superior Suplex off the top rope.

Sarah:  If he hits this cleanly it's over.

Dan:  Up goes Twilight and Chameleon, and he suplexes him from the top.  Chameleon hits hard on the canvas as well though.  He manages to roll over and cover Twilight with one arm...

*1....2......3

*DING, DING*

RESULT:  Chameleon via the Superior Suplex in 17:21

Dan:  What a way to end the evening!  That's all for now and until next week, on behalf of the love Miss Jackson and myself, we'll see you at -=- a fall from grace -=-!

(The screen follows through with Chameleon making it to his feet and raising his hands in victory, followed by Misery's eyes in a transparent background.  It fades out with both Misery driving Bane through the stacked tables on that faithful night in slow motion...)
