Jared Jerusalem VS Shade VS Riley Williamson
| Hardcore title match |

Commercial break ends and the camera takes a glance at the sold out arena tonight, here at New Jersey. The fans look like they can't wait anymore for the Hardcore title match. Their hometown hero is going to be in it which is Riley Williamson. It's a triple threat hardcore match inside the confines of a steel cage. Each superstar is allowed to bring a weapon of their choosing that's why this one's going to be hardcore and probably one of the best matches tonight. The champ's opponents will be Jared Jerusalem and Shade, two superstars who he's been familiar with in the ring.

Joey Miles: Here it comes Ted! This is what I've been waiting for. The Hardcore title match inside the cage. Man, chain reaction is going to be a looong night!

Ted Cedar: Yes Joey and one thing's for sure. These men will put on an amazing performance no matter who wins or loses.

Joey Miles: They didn't come here to perform like theatre actors, they came here at Chain Reaction to leave with the Hardcore title.

Ted Cedar: Still. If they're going to want to have that title, they'll sacrifice life and limb to get it. And that means that they WILL put on a show. We're going to be entertained no doubt about that and these men have tangoed with each other in the past. Our champion is familiar in wrestling with both of his opponents tonight. He's had a history with Shade and he's faced Jared Jerusalem two times. The first time, he lost and the second time he beat Double J.

Joey Miles: Speaking of his history with Shade, Riley Williamson certainly had some words about Shade earlier. Here's the vid.

*A video clip shows some of the things The Hardcore champ said against Shade during his interview earlier that night.*

Ted Cedar: Boy, there's some animosity between him and Riley.

Joey Miles: You know, I just noticed something.

Ted Cedar: What is it Joey?

Joey Miles: The champ does seem kinda burnt out recently. He's working too hard and that's a disadvantage for him tonight. He should have at least asked the boss if the match could be rescheduled or something because of health problems. Now chances of him losing just increased.

Ted Cedar: And miss his opportunity to wrestle in his hometown!? Are you crazy Joey?

Joey Miles: It's just a stupid move. He's not an entertainer Ted, he's a fucking wrestler. If he cares more about the audience rather than his own title then maybe he should stay in New Jersey.

Riley chants starts to erupt in the arena but that soon gets interrupted by a theme song that plays. It's a new theme of one of the superstars. The Past Should Stay Dead by Emarosa plays and suddenly comes out to the Piece of Eden, Jared Jerusalem. He enters looking rather indifferent and hurrying over to the ring in fast-paced walking. It also seems that his weapon of choice to bring in this match-up is a fire extinguisher.

Ted Cedar: What's wrong with Jerusalem? He looks rather... Angry.

Joey Miles: Have you seen his tweets? His pissed of about what Riley said earlier during the interview.

Ted Cedar: What do you mean? Riley verbally attacked Shade didn't he?

Joey Miles: Yes and also Jared.

Ted Cedar: But that was in the end.

Joey Miles: Recall what Williamson said. He called Jared Jerusalem a clown and Shade's sidekick. I mean way to downgrade someone. He's not even associated with Shade in anyway, he dislikes Shade. Remember when Shade put Jared's face through a table?

Ted Cedar: Okay and yes I remember but that doesn't explain why The Self Proclaimed Savior is quite mad tonight.

Joey Miles: Jerusalem is pissed because yet again he's underestimated. Time and again, Double J has wrestled amazingly in his matches. His first ever match returning to Vendetta was match of the night and he won that one, not to mention that was against the hardcore champ himself. Riley's been in a losing streak ever since. Ever since Jerusalem's returned he fought in some pretty dangerous matches and all of those were No DQ. He's probably burnt out too, not as much as Riley here though. But back onto the point. Jared's an underdog tonight despite being a bad guy. Everybody including his opponents tonight are thinking about "Riley and Shade! Riley and Shade! The rivals are back!" But here's the overlooked talent, Jared J. Even through all his efforts to get noticed he's still overlooked by the fans , by his opponents, by everybody.

Ted Cedar: Well that may be so Joey but this might be Jared's night to prove everybody in this arena wrong. If he wins not only is he the champ, but he's gonna teach the crowd and his adversaries to never overlook him because he's the real deal. But this isn't carved in stone yet, he's gotta win first.

The fans boo The Hypocrite Hunter as he enters the ring, but all that does is fuel Jared's anger. The look on his face says it all, he's not amused tonight. The boos get followed by Jared sucks chants and it stops when the next theme plays. Yet the boos don't stop for long.

Shade's theme hits the P.A. system and the negative reaction from the audience comes back this time at Shade himself. The Ultimate Synner makes his way to the ring with a steel chair with barbed wire wrapped around it.

Ted Cedar:Oh my God Joey, look!

Joey Miles:Oh yeah! Someone's gonna bleed tonight!

Ted Cedar: You have to wonder what The Terror of Death must be thinking about Riley Williamson's words.

Joey Miles: Pissed no doubt. The animosity with him and Williamson just keeps on building up. Remember what I said about Jerusalem and Williamson both being burnt out. Well it looks like Shade is in tip top shape and it looks like chances of him walking out with the title are large indeed. Not to mention he's got a steel chair with fucking barbed wire wrapped around him.

Ted Cedar: He's already in the ring and there's but one man left to come out.

Riley Williamson's theme plays and the sold out crowd rise up on their feet and embrace their hometown hero with probably the loudest pops in history of wrestling. Riley Williamson comes out with his chosen weapon, a baseball bat, and the cheers get even louder. Riley shouts out "I'm hoooome!" as loud as he can and the fans reply with a loud "yeaaah!" Riley walks down the ramp with his belt around his waist while high fiving his fans on the way. He's even kind enough to let some of his fans touch his baseball bat. He then makes it inside the ring by sliding under the ropes. He drops his weapon and takes off his title from his waist and raises it up high for everybody to see, including his opponents on different corners.

Ted Cedar: There he is! The Hardcore champion at his hometown and I have never heard a reaction this loud ever in my entire life. Not in my years of watching wrestling when I was young, not now as a broadcaster here in XWA. It's moments like this that make wrestling truly amazing.

Joey Miles: I have to agree with you on that one Ted, I can really feel the energy coming off from the crowd. My heart's just jumping from all of this. And now we have three wrestlers in the ring who seem to dislike each other as much as the other. I wouldn't want to be the referee right now.

Riley's theme stop and the audience starts to quiet down, but not without chanting the champ's name first. The cage slowly lowers as the them of Chain Reaction plays, signifying that his going to be the highlight of the night. As the cage finally sets foot and touches the apron. The obvious way out of the ring is now blacked as these three gladiators and the referee are now locked inside the ring. There are only three ways to win. Pin,submit or by escaping the cage. Pinning and submitting someone is the easiest and the way the most people should do to win in the cage match but at rare moments escaping sometimes may be the most viable way to win.

Chants of Riley start to erupt before the bell rings. As the bell rings, Jared Jerusalem makes the first move by using his fire extinguisher to eject smoke on to Shade. The smoke coming from the extinguisher disorients Shade and keeps him in his corner for a while as he leans back on the corner posts. Smart move, taking out the person with the weapon that could inflict the most pain first. The hardcore champion quickly charges at Jerusalem with his bat at hand but Jared fires away again with his extinguisher. It dazes Ri and gives Jared to smack the champ right across his forehead with the fire extinguisher itself. Riley goes down, feeling his forehead if there's blood. Jared looks down at Riley and the cocky look on his face finally returns for the first time tonight, accompanied by boos from the fans. He drops his weapon and starts stomping away and assaulting the Hardcore Champ, realising his tension and anger against the champion. He stops and realises that he could take the title now if he escapes. He starts to climb on the cage. The side of the cage that's facing the ramp he climbs but completely forgets about Shade. Shade quickly charges over to Jerusalem and pulls his leg down, he wasn't that far up yet. As he pulls The Hypocrite Hunter down, Jerusalem's body lands on Shade's shoulders. The Ultimate Synner easily carries Double J up as if he was just a barrel that wasn't heavy. He then throws Jared towards the cage. The sound of steel meeting flesh is joined by an "OH!" from the crowd as Jared's back lands on the cage. Jared goes down, between the ropes and steel mesh. Shade then turns to see Riley walking up to him. They quickly get onto each other's faces while trashtalking at each other. The fans cheer for the rivalr but of course they root for their hometown hero. The Terror of Death quickly lands the first punch onto the face of Riley. Williamson answers back and everything turns into a trade of blows from The Hardcore Champ and Shade. One after the other the crowd replies "with Ooohs and Aaahs." Shade quickly grabs the back of Riley's head and runs towards the ropes along with Williamson. He then displays his strength advantage by throwing Riley towards the cage but Riley lands on the cage safetly by grabbing the mesh. He quickly jumps off from the cage and lands with on his rival with a crossbody as the fans rose on their feet and roared because of that move.

Joey Miles: HOLY! THAT PARKOUR!

Ted Cedar: WOAH! He said he was going to be spiderman tonight and he sure did. The way he just used the cage to his advantage.

Joey Miles: Yes but the champ doesn't look good. Did he hurt his ribs or something?

Ted Cedar: Maybe, but it also may be the effects from Riley overworking like you said. I'm starting to think you were right about what you said earlier.

Joey Miles: Wait he's getting back up! The champ will stop at nothing to make New Jersey proud even if it is kind of a bonehead thing to do.

Ted Cedar:He's got heart Joey! Can't you understand? That is what a true champion should have.

Riley gets up acting like nothing happened as the audience chants his name. Williamson goes for his nemesis, Shade, and picks up the Master of Syn. He's about to grapple him but turns around to see Jared swinging that baseball bat of Riley. By instinct the hardcore champion ducks and it ends up knocking Shade out instead. Riley quickly realising what just happened stands up quickly and kicks Jared in the gut before he could get a chance to swing that bat again. The champ goes for a DDT and quickly hits it. Jerusalem, at the mat, looks like he's seeing stars. Williamson goes for the pin as the fans count along with him.

Kickout!

Jerusalem kicks out. This match is going to continue. Riley picks up the man he called a clown. He picks him up but has a bit of difficulty doing it due to his obvious injuries from working too much and from the fatigue of it. He sets Jerusalem up standing straight, but his legs all wobbly and runs towards he ricochets back from ropes but it's not a full launch back to the cage and goes for a clothesline but Double J ducks down, thought it did not look like he actually ducked down. It looked like his legs gave in. J. Jerusalem regains his composure and quickly rise arounds up. He looks back to see the champion charging right at him. Jared Jerusalem does a backflip and purposely hits his opponent's cranium with his shin. Amazingly, he lands on his feet, though the landing wasn't perfect because he almost tripped, making him walk a bit backwards. He still landed on his feet.

Joey Miles: Wow! How the hell did he do that

Ted Cedar: It looks like Jerusalem hasn't forgotten his roots as SuicideViper.

Williamson got knocked out from the splendid move Jared did. He's probably down and out. Shade's still down because of the baseball bat to the face but now he has some consciousness and he could shake his head and touch his face, but he's probably not getting up on his feet anytime soon. Jared takes this time to catch his breath and showboat to the crowd. The man who looked very serious before the match started has begun to let loose and flex his muscles for the sake of his arrogance. Obviously the fans, who dislike The Self Proclaimed Saviour of XWA showed their hate for the cocky young man with "Jared Sucks!" chants. Jared suddenly stops and comes to a realisation. Was it a conclusion that he could win this match? Probably because he starts to climb the cage. It could be easier if he just pinned his downed opponents but he decides to climb, maybe it's the rumor feeling of rising up high to get a title is one of the best feelings ever for both ladder and cage matches. Jared's moderate-pace climbing got him up at the top of the cage. He's now on top of the cage and what does he do? He stands up tall, all balanced instead of climbing out of the cage and to the floor to win. Instead he stands up to receive some scoffing from the audience. He quickly turns his head and torso to face the side of the crowd behind him and he flips him off with his famous middle finger. The fans react negatively booing Jerusalem very loudly but quickly after Double J flipped the bird at the fans from New Jersey he leaps high on the air to the an elbow drop on Shade. Instead of escaping he did that. He lands in the ring and onto Shade's chest. The impact from the high flying move woke up Shade as he groaned from pain. Even the fans were amazed at The Piece of Eden and chanted "Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!" Jerusalem however must have accidentally landed his knee on the mat. Jared screams in pain.

Joey Miles: Why the fuck did he do that!? That was stupid! And I thought this guy was the smartest from the three.

Ted Cedar: You said it yourself Joey, Jared wants to show everyone that he shouldn't be overlooked.

Joey Miles: But he could've won the championship there! What is with these wrestlers wanting to to steal the show!? Now he's hurt his knee bad

Ted Cedar: Could you just imagine the height from the cage to the ring? That's probably like 10-12 feet maybe? I'm not sure. All I'm sure that was a pretty high drop and Jerusalem probably took himself out of this match.

Joey Miles: Look at him he's too wrapped up about the pain that he can't go for a pin to the one he delivered the move to. Damn it Jerusalem! You retard!

Shade and Jerusalem are both down but Riley was getting up using the ropes and the cage to hoist himself back up on his feet. He witnessed what just happened and quickly wanted to capitalise. But just like Jared, Riley wanted to amaze everybody so Riley prolonged the match some more by going hardcore. The Hardcore champ gets his bat and raises it up the air. The fans cheer in anticipation for what's about to happen. Williamson walks slowly due to tiredness and decides to hit the downed Jerusalem with his bat. He hits the injured knee. He swings that bat vertically to the hurt knee repeatedly as the fans cheer. The Hypocrite Hunter can't do anything but scream in agony. The referee makes Williamson stop though. This match is obviously no disqualification but it looks like the ref is checking if Jared has a major injury and if he can't wrestle in the match anymore. Jared then sits,leaning his back at the bottom post on the corner. The ref asks Jerusalem if he wants him to end the match for Jared's sake but The Piece of Eden doesn't reply. The ref asks again.

Ted Cedar: Looks like Jared's hurt bad.

Joey Miles: I told you that he shouldn't have..... WAIT WHAT THE....

Jerusalem uses some last minute power and energy to get up quickly with the help of the ropes and he suddenly pushes the ref away, knocking him down. He suddenly runs to Riley despite his injured knee and lunges at him. Jerusalem high in the air and lands back to the mat doing the Switchback, his single knee codebreaker using the knee that isn't injured. Williamson falls back to the mat, knocked out cold. Jared drags himself with his remains energy to drag himself towards his downed adversary and pin him. He's now on top of his opponent but the ref isn't counting. He got knocked out when Jerusalem pushed him out of the way. The frustrated look on his face says it all. This is his moment but the referee is down. He gets back up on his feet and limps his way towards the ref. He bends down with his injured leg on tip toe position to wake up the ref who's face down on the mat. Suddenly BAM! the sound of a steel chair is heard as Shade who was forgotten during the heat between Jerusalem and Riley smashes that chair with barbed wire on Jerusalem's back. Shade's up and aside from the roar of the fans and the sound of that chair- Jerusalem's screams of anguish is heard after that chair shot. Some of the parts of The Self Proclaimed Saviour of XWA's back's been cut. It's good that it isn't as deep as a laceration though. Shade takes advantage of the bent down cocky superstar, he drops his chair and shoves Jared J's head between his legs, he lifts him up in the air for a powerbomb and throws him down to the mat. Jared falls and he places his forearm behind his back that's in pain. Shade then whips to the opposite corner but Jerusalem trips before he could get there because of the injured knee. Shade notices Jared's injury for the first time and acts upon it. He grabs the leg with the injured knee and goes for the ankle lock. Jared groans again because of the pressure being applied to the knee from this lock on the legs. Jerusalem tries not to tap, he closes his fingers making a fist gesture to prevent himself from tapping out. But the pain is just to extreme. Too bad the ref is already awake, if he was still knocked out Jared could tap all he wants. Double J looking like he's about to tap, he's turned red from the pain but then Riley who's gotten up swings his bat behind the neck of Shade. The Master of Syn lets go and falls on to his knee. The fans cheer for Riley who's back up. Williamson drops his weapon and goes for the steel chair with barbed wire. He waits for Shade to get up and turn around. The Ultimate Synner has no clue of what the champ has in store for him as he gets up. He turns around to get hit by the chair with barbed wire. It cuts open Shade and knocks the Terror of Death down. Riley raises the chair and screams in a pumped up manner.

Ted Cedar: Oh my God! Where did Riley come from! Amazing!

Joey Miles: Shade's covered in a crimson mask! This is great!

Ted Cedar: Wait a sec Joey. It looks like Jerusalem's trying to climb it out. Oh no! He's been seen by Williamson.

Ri sees Double J attempting to climb up and he quickly stops him by hitting his back with the steel chair. Further adding cuts to the behind of Jared. He hits him harder one more time causing The Piece Of Eden to fall down. Williamson raises the chair again for the fans to reply with a loud reaction. turns around, face facing the mat showing plenty of cuts on his back. The champ picks up his opponents who starts to feel like dead weight now due to how worn out both of these men are. He tries to get him to lean against the corner. Riley Williamson taunts for one more time and lifts his opponent to the top of the turnbuckle. He places his adversary's arm around the back of his neck and goes for the superplex but from out of nowhere, The Terror of Death, Shade goes under the Hardcore Champion and lifts him up but quickly lands him down over him with the electric chair.

Ted Cedar: OH MY GOD! Williamson superplexes Jerusalem while Hells Pyromaniac electric chaired Williamson. Good Lord! All men are down again.

Joey Miles: Wait. Shade's crawling on his knees towards Riley. I think he's gonna go for the pin

Ted Cedar: This may be it! We may have a new hardcore champion!

Shade goes for the pin on Williamson.

KICKOUT!

The fans rise up in their feet in amazement. Their hometown hero has kicked out from that devastating move. Even Shade couldn't believe it.

Ted Cedar: Can you believe that!? He just did the impossible!! The resiliency! This man has the heart of a true champion folks! Right here in his hometown he just showed how miraculous he could be.

Joey Miles: That's going to be short-live though. Shade looks pissed.

Shade lifts Riley back up on his feet by grabbing him in the neck. Before doing anything Shade just wipes his bloody face with his hands and smudges the blood to The Hardcore Champ's face. He then lifts him up for the chokeslam and he does it, as Riley falls back down to the mat looking dead with his arms and legs spread out, the fans boo The Ultimate Synner. He doesn't mind the reaction from the fans and proceeds to pick up his long time rival this time by the hair. He then throws the Vendetta Veteran face first to the steel mesh of the cage. Riley lands back down on his feet but Shade proceeds to do it again. Riley still lands back on his feet but looking even more wobbly on the legs. Hell's Pyromaniac then lifts up Riley's arm and goes for "Temporary death" He viciously punches the Hardcore Champ's injured ribs. He then throws Riley again one last time towards the cage and he falls down, sandwiched by the steel and the ropes while he's down on the apron. Shade quickly starts to climb as much as he can but not that fast because of the fatigue and pain he suffered from the match. Not to mention the loss of blood. as Shade climbs almost to the top. Jared Jerusalem quickly pulls Riley Williamson inside the ring and goes for his modified boston crab, "The Walls of Jerusalem." He locks it in and the pain's obvious by observing the expression of Riley's face, this is a painful hold indeed. The Master of Syn notices as Jerusalem applies the hold to the hardcore champ. He watches and thinks if he should continue the climb or if he should break the hold. He can't make his mind as he's stuck there, thinking whether if he should continue or not. The chances of Riley tapping are great. Jared glares at Hell's Pyromaniac and tells him "Come on big guy!! He's gonna tap! Do something about it!" This provoked Shade to go down and to go for Jared. When Shade went back to the mat. Jerusalem let go of the submission and went to Shade but he got caught by Hell's Pyromaniac himself. He's got Jerusalem all choked up, ready for a choke slam and he lands it on Jerusalem. Shade's the only one standing tall in the ring and he gets booed by the people in attendance in this arena. He picks up Jared getting him ready for a powerbomb but instead it was different as he lifted him up he placed him on his shoulder and lifted him up in the air by the upper arms. Shade goes for his crucifix powerbomb, "Godless Wrath." He throws Jared J. to the steel mesh, back first. That hurt back of Double J colliding with the cage. Jared goes down in pain as the fans roared "OHHH!" As Shade turns around, BAM! Riley Williamson hits the superkick to his rival, Shade. The sound of boot to jaw could be heard throughout the arena and the fans go nuts because of it. Shade falls down to one of the most powerful superkicks ever done by Williamson himself. Riley goes for the pin

Jared, even though he's down, uses the fire extinguisher to shoot smoke at Williamson's face and interrupt the pin. The fans react furiously with "NOOOO!" The smoke's turned The Hardcore Champion woozy. He could steal the victory right now. He goes for the pin.

KICKOUT! SHADE KICKS OUT!

Joey Miles: No Way! He couldn't have kicked out from that!

Ted Cedar: SHADE'S A MONSTER FROM HELL! HOW IN THE BLOODY WORLD DID HE KICK OUT FROM THAT!?

Joey Miles: The fans in this sold out arena can't believe it.

Jared quickly decides to climb instead, Shade is still down isn't he. But it looks like the champion's ahead already. He started to climb right after Shade kicked out. Jared however took some time to process how Shade kicked out. Jerusalem trying hard to climb as fast as he can, but he's too tired and hurt from the knee and at the back. It's like trying to move after being whipped repeatedly in different area. The champ has this in the bag to win. He's almost got it, he's already on the side of the cage outside of the ring. All he needs to do is climb down. Jerusalem is lagging behind though still trying to get on top of the cage. As Williamson climbs down the mystery woman who's been helping Jared Jerusalem before appears. She's trying to distract the champ.

Ted Cedar: It's this woman again! That was the woman who attempted to help Jerusalem in his match against Shade. Win the match already Riley.

Joey Miles: I think Riley's to nice to land on a woman. The mystery girl's blocking Riley's way down.

Jared Jerusalem gets on top of the cage and now starts to climb down while Riley's a few feet away from victory. Riley decides to finally kick the woman away. He's about to jump down but then Shade grabs the champ's fingers. Riley can't jump down while Shade's got all his fingers. Riley trying to swing around, specially his legs but it isn't working. Shade's got a strong grip on the Hardcore champ's fingers. Shade then turns his gaze around to Jerusalem who makes the drop and lands on the floor. Shade lets go realising he forgot about his other opponent and throws a tantrum inside the ring while he's locked in the cage.

The bell rings as Jared Jerusalem wins his first ever championship in his XWA career. His theme hits and a mix of emotion, fierceness and arrogance shows on his face(kinda how like Dolph Ziggler won his first world title). Jerusalem gets handed the title as his name is announced as the new Hardcore Champion. His mystery woman raises his hands in victory as he raises his other arm with the belt high up in the air. The sold out capacity of New Jersey boo their loudest for the loss of their hometown hero, some even lay silent in shock. Not only did Riley lose his title, but he disappointed his fans in New Jersey. Jerusalem takes a "If Riley loses, We RIOT." sign from the crowd and he rips it to shreds, vertically then horizontally.

Ted Cedar:What a match! I kept on thinking the match would end in so many different points on the match.

Joey Miles: He's finally done it! Even if it took longer than expected. Jared Jerusalem has won his first title and has proven that he really is a force to be reckoned with.

Ted Cedar: It was unfair though! The mystery woman of his helped him again!

Joey Miles:Oh please. Shade would've grabbed the ex champ again and prevented him from winning.

Ted Cedar: Look at the carnage. *shows replay of the highlights of the match* These men went all out tonight. And now we have a new hardcore champion. Look at the emotion on his face. As much as I hate to say it, the hardcore title now bears the name Jared Jerusalem.

Before the everything cuts and fades into commercial break, the last angle of the camera shows Jared Jerusalem raising his title up in the air alongside his mystery woman at the stage.

Ding, Ding, Ding!!!

Riley Williamson, Jared Jerusalem, and Shade all eye each other up but don’t make a move. Both glance at there weapons that they have brought into this match. Riley, holding his Steel Chair looking at Shade, who grips his Kendo Stick tightly stares right back at him. Jared just stares at both men while holding onto his weapon of choice, The Fire Extinguisher. neither makes a move. They don’t want to be the first one to act, to be the first one who leaves themselves open to a possible attack. In a traditional start of a Triple Threat match style the three men begin circling around each other. In a Clockwise fashion. A few seconds pass before Shade is the first to react, charging at Riley with his Kendo Stick in hand, he tries to hit Riley in the Waist but Riley sees this coming and dunks, Shade swings, and misses! a bit shocked, the former Hardcore Champion turns around and Riley meets him, holding the Chair with his right hand on the top and the other on the bottom he sends the Chair directly onto Shades midsection! This causes Shade to bend over and Riley lifts the Chair up above his head and sends it down hard onto The Albany Native’s back hard. Shade’s legs unbuckle beneath him, falling down onto the canvas. Jared now comes forward with his Weapon, he tries to eject smoke on Riley but Riley, being the smart guy that he is puts the Steel Chair in front of his face not letting the Smoke hit his face. Jared holds onto the Ejector for a couple of seconds before letting go of it. With the white mystic smoke covering the view, it makes it hard for Jared to see whether or not Riley is down or not. Jared now slowly walks into the Mist and as he does, Riley jumps on him. locking in a Side headlock. Usually in this kind of situation we would see Riley try and take things to the ground but he knows full well that Jared has some ground game of his own. He needs to keep this one within his control. With his free hand Riley brings his fingers up to the eyes and drags them across, raking Jared’s eye with his nails. Jared staggers backwards but is stopped tracks by a kick to the gut, driving his boot into the abdomen of Double J. Jared doubles over from the blow, the Floridan following up by driving his forearm down across the back. Jared drops to his knees from the impact, Riley throwing a right hand straight into the jaw of the Piece of Eden. A second right hand follows, Riley drilling his fist into the side of Jared’s head. He grabs Jared by the head and pulls him onto his feet, then whips him into the ring ropes. On the return Riley goes for the clothesline only for Jared to duck under it and keep running. Jared rebounds off of the rope and as Riley turns leaps up and smashes into Riley’s jaw with his forearm. The Hardcore Champion drops to the mat with a thud and immediately Bennett is on top of him, drilling his fist into the skull. Riley gets his hands up, blocking any further blows from connecting. Jared leaps up onto his feet and when Riley tries to follow, Jared drives his boot into the ribs of the Hardcore Champion.

Ted: What a follow-up by Jared Jerusalem. This man is truly showing why he deserves to be in this match tonight.

Joey: Jared is staying on top of the current Hardcore Champion and is doing a good job on doing so.

Riley rolls onto his back from the blow but he doesn’t get any time to rest as Jerusalem grabs him and yanks him onto his feet. Jared J drives his knee up into the abdomen before whipping Riley to the corner, the former New York Native hitting the turnbuckle back first. Jerusalem charges after him looking to hit a clothesline and potentially blast Riley’s head against the steel cage behind. As Jerusalem approaches Riley moves at the very last second, ducking out to the side under the outstretched arm. Jerusalem’s momentum carries him through straight into the turnbuckle while Riley runs the ropes opposite. Jerusalem staggers backwards and turns, Riley rebounding and leaping up at the same moment, hitting Jerusalem in the jaw with a single footed forward dropkick. Riley rolls onto his hands and knees and pushes himself up onto his feet before pulling Jerusalem up with him. Riley drives a forearm into the jaw and then a second forearm before pushing Jerusalem back into the corner. Grabbing the ring ropes for balance Riley drives his boot into the gut of Jared and follows it up with another two before lifting his boot up to the throat and trying to choke Jerusalem out. Jerusalem flails around and then sends his fist straight into the side of Riley’s knee. A second blow follows and Riley releases the choke. He steps backwards and Jerusalem, using the ropes for the lift, leaps up and drills his boots into the chest of the Floridan. Riley staggers backwards giving the piece of Eden time to pull himself up onto the top turnbuckle. Riley turns and Jerusalem leaps off and hits Riley with a flying shoulder block. Riley hits the mat hard from the unexpected blow but Jerusalem immediately pulls him up onto his feet and drills him with a forearm. Grabbing Riley by the back of the head Jerusalem goes to throw him head first into the steel cage but Riley leaps up, planting his boots into the cage blocking the impact. Riley then leaps backwards and drives his elbow into the jaw of Jared Jerusalem with a flying back elbow. Jerusalem drops to the mat and Riley rolls through, grabbing Jerusalem by the arm, turning him onto his front and then wrapping his legs around the arm of the piece of eden, cranking it upwards. Riley cranks the arm up from where he sits, Jerusalem letting out a little shout of pain as Riley makes his best effort to yank the shoulder straight out of its socket. Jerusalem, who isn’t particularly adept at escaping complicated submission holds, tries to claw his way to the nearby ring ropes but he’s trying to pull 210lbs with only one hand and it can’t be done. Riley leans forward, pushing the arm up in the process and adding more pressure as referee Ryn Sanu asks Jerusalem if he wants to give up but, Jerusalem's reply is a strongly worded rejection of the very idea.

Ted: Jared is showing some determination in this match.

Joey: He is doing a great job on taking control of the match, but it won't be long before Shade rebounds.

Jerusalem, unable to claw himself to the ropes, pushes up with his one free hand while at the same time gets up to his knees. While this adds to the pressure on his arm it seems to be worth it as Jerusalem pushes, the change in positions pushing Riley onto his back. As soon as Riley’s shoulders hit the mat The Referee drops to make the count as submission meets pinfall…

Kickout by Riley.

Riley has no choice but to release the armbar in order to break the pinfall, giving Jerusalem the freedom that he needed. Jersualem gets back to his feet as well as Shade and they both glare at each other. The two share a staredown and all the while Riley is rolling towards the bottom rope. They both continue to look at each other for a couple of seconds before Riley makes it back to his feet. There attention then turns to Riley and Jared is the first to move out of the Two. Jared throwing the first strike in the form of a right hand. Riley manages to block it with his arm and throws a right hand of his own, knocking Jerusalem backwards. Riley whips Jared into the ropes and on the rebound leaps up and hits Jared with a lifting knee strike. Jared drops to the mat and Shade runs the ropes, as Riley turns around, Shade lifts a foot up and connects blasting a standing Riley with a Big boot on the return. Shade pulls Riley up onto his feet by the hair and looks set to throw the Floridan straight into the cage but Riley manages to block it with a back elbow to the gut. It takes a second elbow to break Shade’s grip, Riley spinning around and blasting Shade with a forearm. Riley goes for the Irish whip but Shade counters, spinning Riley around and sending Riley running towards the steel. Riley shows off his well established athleticism by leaping up onto the cage and starting to climb. Shade doesn’t attempt any risk, immediately going after him and grabbing the floridan native foot. A single pull brings Riley down from the cage and Shade grabs the head, promptly slamming Riley face first into the cage. Riley doesn’t get an opportunity to think about how painful his face meeting the steel was as Shade throws him into a corner and starts unloading with right hands. As Shade stops Riley drops to a sitting position in the corner. Seeing Riley down and temporarily Shade goes over to pick his weapon. "Hell's Pyromaniac" with his weapon now in hand turns over to see Jared laying on his belly, Lifting the Stick above his head, Shade sends the Stick viciously across Jared’s back. With the hit finding it’s mark on his back, Jared yells in complete agony while he squirms. Shade then turns around and puts his focus on Riley who has now pulled himself up to his feet and groggily walks out of the corner. The Albany Native seems to size Riley up for a second, almost grinning at this little situation, before swinging the Kendo Stick straight across the skull of the former New York Native. Riley takes the shot hard and falls backwards into the cage. Shade takes delight in the shot, Riley looks completely out of it from the blow but still tries going after Shade, pushing himself off of the cage only for the "Hell's Pyromaniac" to send the Kendo Stick across the skull once again, dropping Riley to the mat. Shade drops the Kendo Stick as it is already splintered on the mat and grabs the Steel Chair. He places it in the middle of the ring and goes over to grab Riley Williamson. Williamson is being checked on by the referee, Sanu, clearly thinking that Riley may have gotten a concussion from the blows. Shade pulls Sanu out of his way, Sanu getting in Shade’s face for the action. But there is nothing he could do as this is a Steel Cage match.-Anything goes. So Ryn step back, his eyes still trained on Shade as "The Ultimate Synner" pulls Riley onto his feet.

Ted: alittle bit of tension going on between our official, Ryn Sanu and Shade.

Joey: This guy is one crazy fucker. Believe me. His persona is different from the other Superstars in the back, and matches like these feed his appetite.

Shade pulls Riley over to the centre of the ring, the Steel Chair just behind him, and pushes his head down into a front facelock. Shade hooks the arm over the head, looking for a suplex, but Riley comes to and drives his fist up into the gut. A second right hand into the gut releases the front facelock and Riley turns it all around, pushing Shade down into a front facelock of his own, hooking the arm and lifting Shade up, then promptly dropping "The Ultimate Synner" down chest first onto the Steel Chair. Riley almost drops backwards, still having not shaken off all of the cobwebs from the Kendo Stick shots. Shade rolls off of the Chair, gripping his ribs from the impact. The Chair itself is completely in perfect condition from the impact. Riley uses the opportunity and slowly ascends the steel cage. He gets to the ten foot mark before Jared is onto his feet and realizes he could likely go the extra ten feet to escape the cage. he goes and picks up the Steel Chair. and walks towards him. Without Riley noticing that Jared is behind him, The Piece of Eden lifts the Chair up and slams it against Riley’s back. The Champ however, manages to keep a good grip on the links of the Cage and holds on. Jared tries to hide his impressive look for Riley and does it again. Riley this time let’s go falling down onto the mat. Jared pulls Riley up onto his feet before the floridan can gain his bearings after being caught off guard there, throwing him into the corner back first against the turnbuckle. Jared plants a single boot into the knee of Williamson. which forces him to drop down into a sitting position. Jared, using the top rope for balance, lifts himself up onto the ankle of Williamson, putting all his weight down on the ankle in an attempt to damage the ligament. Jared, still holding onto the top rope, leaps up and looks to bring himself down upon the ankle and he does as Riley yelps in pain holding his leg, Jared now goes straight after Shade but "The Ultimate Synner" sees him coming and blocks a right hand before firing off one of his own. A forearm follows followed by an Irish whip against the ring ropes. Jared rebounds off of the rope and Shade leaps up, catching Jared with a picture perfect dropkick that sends Double J flopping to the mat. With Jared grounded Shade turns his attention to the arm of Jared J Rolling Jared onto his front Shade grips the right arm and bends it back over the body. Next he places one knee on the neck and shoulder of the piece of eden and the other knee across the back to block any attempt that Jared might make to escape. With this leverage Shade wraps his arm around the right arm of Jared and stretches it back, wearing away at the tendons. Shade leans back further with the arm clinched, adding further pressure onto the ligament. Jared is clearly in pain from the move but this is a man who refuses to show it, determined to prove that Shade’s first victory over him was just a fluke. The difficulty lies in actually breaking out of the hold because Shade isn’t a man who acts before thinking, Shade is a man who is always thinking a dozen moves ahead and who knows every single trick in the book when it comes to wrestling. Jared fights to free his other arm which is trapped beneath his body by the weight of Shade. He struggles as he tries and quickly realizes that it is just a waste of energy because there is no way he can tug his arm out. Shade continues to pull back on the arm, forcing more wear and tear.

Ted: Shade is looking to destroy Jared here. That arm is as good as gone if Jared cannot escape. The hold that Shade has on it.

Joey: Shade is doing whatever he can to stay in the game.

With one approach down Jared immediately decides upon another. The weakness here is clear, Shade is focusing on the arm and the body, but Jared’s legs are free. Jared manoeuvres himself enough so that he can place one foot flat down on the canvas. Then he manages the same with the other foot. Shade sees this and with his free arm he begins drilling elbows into the side of Jared, his elbow connecting with the ribs of the Self Proclaimed Savior of XWA. But this doesn’t phase him as Jared pushes up with his feet, the change in balance and slight lift letting him pull his arm out and push down on the canvas. Slowly Jared begins pushing up on the canvas. It doesn’t look like it’s going to work at first, what with Shade’s entire body being pressed down on his back and all, but then he budges. He begins to rise. Jared rises onto his knees, Shade still perched on his back, cranking the arm and blasting Jared with elbow after elbow to the ribs, one or more of which have to be bruised by this point. But Jared keeps rising, and then he’s standing, doubled over, with Shade on his back. Jared, with this leverage, now yanks forwards with his trapped arm, pulling Shade off of him and sending him flying across the ring, hitting the mat back first with a thud. As Shade quickly claws his way onto his feet Jared shoots his leg up high, drilling Shade with a kick to the side of the head that sends "The Ultimate Synner" flopping to the mat as Jared clutches his ribs. Oh they’re hurting alright, and Jared is showing it, clutching his ribs and taking some deep breaths after his impressive display of strength. Meanwhile, Riley is seen leaning against the corner, nursing his Ribs as they start to bother him. The high kick has bought him some time but he can’t rest for long and quickly goes back on the offensive. He puts a boot into the back of the Albany Native, just for good measure, before lifting him up onto his feet. Jared moves behind Shade, brings his right foot across the left foot of Shade. Jared, pulls Shade up and then drops him backwards with a Russian leg sweep. Jared rolls away and gets onto his feet, he then goes and picks up the already broken Kendo Stick and flips it over to the non broken side. Jared waits as Shade gets onto his hands and knees, Jared lifting the kendo stick up above his head yet again and then cracking it across the spine of "The Terror of Death". Jared drops the kendo stick to the ground and grabs Shade by the head, lifting him up onto his feet. Jared, holding a groggy Shade by the back of the head, takes a run up and throws Shade into the steel. The force of the throw sends Shade into the cage wall side first, his shoulder smashing into the cage with a thud and dropping down behind the ring ropes to the mat. Jared crouches as Shade struggles and as he grabs the bottom rope to try and pull himself away Jared runs the ropes, rebounding off of them and dropping with a low dropkick that sends "Hell's Pyromaniac" back smashing against the steel.

Ted: And now the Steel Cage is being put into play, remember that the Cage wall can either be your enemy or your Partner.

Joey: I don’t think we need Lesson 101 Ted, I think we all knew that the Cage wall can either be your girlfriend, or your one of your exes.

Jared Jerusalem seems to have hit his stride now as he drives his boot into the gut of Shade once again. He knows he could keep his attack up but then there’s another path he could take. Beginning his climb up the cage wall Jared is looking to escape this time. Below him Shade pulls himself from behind the ropes, clutching his ribs from the ongoing assault that Jared has carried out in the past minutes. He gets onto his hands and knees as Jared reaches the halfway mark up the cage wall. Shade glances up and spots him and forces himself to get up onto his feet despite being winded. He can’t lose this one because of some pain, he’s more than that. He’s the former Hardcore champion, and winning the match here tonight would make him a Two time Hardcore Champion. He’s the "Master of Syn.” With a push Shade gets himself up onto his feet and with another he starts climbing the cage after Jared. His urgency gives him a slight edge over The Self Proclaimed Savior of XWA who only now has spotted Shade coming up behind him. Riley now begins to get up, using the ropes, he pulls himself up and looks on while Jared picks up the pace but Shade manages to grab his foot. Jared kicks out but Shade keeps his grip, refusing to release. Shade avoids a second kick and yanks. Jerusalem loses his grip and drops down, crotching himself on the ring ropes. Jerusalem shouts out in pain as Shade grabs him by the hair and pulls him up so that he’s standing on the ring ropes before hooking him in a front facelock. Jared jumps off of the ring ropes with Shade in his grip, drilling him face first into the mat with a good old fashioned DDT. With both Shade and Jared down, Riley remains up against the corner. He looks over towards the Crowd with a huge smile as they are Cheering for their Hero! He then grabs onto the top rope and pushes himself up. The Mystery woman is having none of this however as she starts hitting the Cage wall furiously while she looks at Riley. Riley then looks back and flips her off before he now stands tall pointing down at Jared as he then jumps off the top rope attempting to hit his Signature move, The Blading Drop! (Elbow Drop) And at the last second, Jared moves out of the way causing Riley to hit his Elbow on the mat! Riley rolls back and forth while clutching onto his right arm as now all three men remain down.

Ted: One has to wonder what factor does this Mystery Woman that Jared brought will have in this match. Riley and Shade may even have a problem escaping this Cage with her around.

Joey: She is like the Devil Ted, Hot and Fiesty! I would want her in my Bed Any Day!

Ted: Goodluck having Jared letting you.

Joey: She knows she can’t resist this.

It takes a couple of seconds before either men begin to move. Williamson who was holding his Elbow in pain leans on the bottom rope whilst, grabbing the middle rope trying to pull himself up while Jared gets on a wobbly vertical base. Williamson wastes no time, quickly he grabs hold of the kneeling and in pain Jared Jerusalem, pulling him up onto his feet and whipping him into the corner, Jared hitting the turnbuckle back first. Williamson wastes no time and charges forward and leaps up, hitting Jared with a clothesline in the corner. Jerusalem staggers out where Williamson grabs him around the head and follows up with a running bulldog, sending the Self Proclaimed Savior of XWA down to the mat. With Jared down, Riley now looks at Shade who is kneeling over. The Floridan, lifts Shade and places him onto his shoulders attempting to hit his Finisher, The Torrential Drop (F5) but Shade wiggles himself off of Riley’s shoulder, spins him around and kicks Riley in the gut and as Riley doubles over, Shade wraps his arm around the neck of Riley and drops him down with a DDT. The Ultimate Synner gets up onto his feet, and considers going for a pinfall but he decides against it. He hasn’t done enough yet. Shade rolls Riley over onto his back and pushes him up into a sitting position. Grabbing Riley around the throat Shade drops down, drilling his knee into the spine of the Hardcore Champion, an action that definitely wakes him up just a little bit. A second time the knee is driven straight into the spine before Shade grabs hold of both of Riley’s wrists, pulls them back and plants his knee firmly in the middle of Williamson’s back, pulling back on the arms and pushing in with the knee, putting a lot of pressure on the spine of the Floridan Native. Shade leans back adding just that little bit more pressure on Williamson’s spine that makes him shout out in pain. XWA Official Ryn Sanu leans down, asking if he wants to give up but he knows the answer before it even leaves Williamson’s mouth. This isn’t meant to be a match ender. This is meant to be the precursor to that. He knows that if he lets this go on too long then he’s done for. If too much damage is done then there will be little reason for him even to continue fighting on. So he has to make his move now if he wants to survive this. Planting his feet on the floor Williamson uses his balance to start pushing himself up. Shade tries keeping his knee firmly placed but he hasn’t got the strength or the grounding. As Williamson gets to his feet he suddenly leaps up, using Shade as a stepping stone of sorts to lift himself up and over Shade with a backflip. The sudden move forces Shade to break his hold on Williamson’s hands, The Champ landing right behind "The Ultimate Synner", locking his hands around Shade’s waist, lifting him up and dropping him on his back with a german suplex. Williamson rolls away from the now grounded Shade, his hand instinctively moving to his spine following the wearing down move we just witnessed. He glances at the cage and then back at Shade. Grabbing the Albany Native by the head, Williamson yanks him up onto his feet. Pushing him down into a front facelock Williamson hooks the arm, lifts up and back, driving Shade into the mat with a snap suplex, rolling through into a pinfall…

Kickout by Shade.

Williamson gets up and drags Shade up along with him. as he Irish Whips him across the ring. As Shade rebounds off the ropes Riley looks for a Clothesline but Shade dunks, running towards the opposite side he then comes back and as Riley turns around Shade kicks his leg up and hits his foot against Riley’s face, he hits a Bicycle Kick! Riley drops to the mat and Shade whom drops down onto his knees, and goes for a cover.

Kickout by Riley.

Shade sits up and looks straight forward to see Jared pulling himself up via the Ropes. a slow and arduous task. They both reach their feet at the same time, turning and facing each other. Slowly they stagger towards each other, meeting eye to eye, almost forgetting about Riley Williamson in this, the most heated of moments. Then they explode, both men throwing punches. A right hand from Jared, then a right hand from Shade, a right from Jared, a right from Shade, Jared, Shade, Jared, Shade, both men going back and forth with right hands. It’s the momentum that comes into play once to the detriment of the piece of eden, hindering the speed that he can throw those right hands as everyone hurts him almost as much as they hurt Jared’s face. But Shade takes advantage, connecting with multiple right hands one after the other, backing Novak up into the ring ropes. Riley is laid out on his back near the corner following the Bicycle Kick he recieved eariler, completely oblivious to the desperate back and forth between Shade and Jared. With Jared backed up against the ropes Shade whips him across the ring, Jared rebounding off the ropes and ducking under a Bicycle Kick on the return. Shade lands unbalanced and is spun around by Jared who delivers a boot to the gut, he wraps his arm around the back of Shade and tries to Suplex him but Somehow Shade finds it in him to counter the move, slinking his head out from Jared’s grasp. Shade quickly capitalises on the situation, hooking both of Jerusalem’s arms with his own in a side-nelson position, and tucking Jared’s head inbetween his legs Before Shade can drop Jared face first Jared lifts Shade above him, the sudden imbalance allowing him to pull Shade overhead with an awkward looking overhead toss. Shade, scrambling to his feet as best he can, turning straight into Jared who pushes himself onto his feet, Shade charges forward at him and hits a Big Clothesline! Almost taking Jared’s head off! Jared winces in pain while holding onto the back of his head. "The Terror of Death" looks down at the fallen Jared and simply laughs. Enjoying the fact that both of his opponents are now down and that the match is now in his taking.

Ted: Shade now is in control, I wonder if he is gonna be the one that walks out tonight as Hardcore Champion.

Joey: Are you kidding me? Shade is the King of Hardcore. and I think the King of Hardcore has something evil and sexy in mind…

Indeed he does, as Shade looks over at the Chair that Riley put down earlier he goes and picks it up. Using the legs for assistance, he puts the feet of the Chair down onto the mat and uses it to help himself up. As Shade pushes himself up onto his feet he sees a kneeling Jared Jerusalem attempting to do the same. Instead of waiting for him to get up Shade goes straight in for the attack, lifting the chair above his head and then bringing it cracking down across the spine of the Jared J. Jared quickly drops down, clutching his back, his face contorting in pain. With Jared down Shade turns his attention to Riley, turning the chair sideways and slamming the ridge down upon the mid-section of Riley Williamson. Riley drops down onto the mat clutching onto his stomach from the Chairshot and Shade drops the Chair and goes for the Cover.

Kickout by Riley.

Despite the pain shooting up and down his spine, despite the punishment that he taken since the very opening moments of this match, Riley Williamson fights on, somehow shooting a shoulder up off the mat just mere milliseconds before Ryn Sanu can count three. As Ryn Sanu signals that it was just a two count Shade is absolutely furious, shouting at Shade that it should have been three. Shade isn’t taking it however, his word is final. Shade, deciding against wasting time arguing with the official, slowly rises onto his feet. While he may not have a back that is injured like Riley, he, like Jared and Riley Williamson, is feeling the effects of this match. He grabs Riley by the arm and pulls him closer towards the turnbuckle, letting him go just a few inches ahead of it. He climbs up the Turnbuckle. He reaches the very top and balances himself, struggling to keep two feet on the top turnbuckle as he slowly rises onto his feet, standing high above the ring and more importantly high above Riley Williamson. "The Ultimate Synner"stands there for a moment and inhales deeply, knowing that connecting with this could be all he needs to become the new XWA Hardcore Champion. Then he leaps, twists himself in the air like a corkscrew and comes down back first, spine first, onto… nothing. Riley Williamson somehow finds the willpower to roll himself onto his back out of the way, Shade His body seems to do another full rotation as he bounces off of the ring apron and ends up lying on his chest just metres away from Riley Williamson who, despite managing to avoid the Corkscrews not moving off of the mat. Ryn Sanu goes from one man to the next. First to Riley Williamson, who shows no signs of getting up any time soon, then to Shade, who might have actually knocked himself out from the shock impact with the failed Corkscrew, and finally to check on Jared Jerusalem, The Hypocrite Hunter is conscious, immediately giving him one up on his two opponents, but he’s showing no signs of being able to wrestle at this point. Ryn Sanu has no idea what to do. But this isn’t an ordinary match. This is a Steel Cage Match. This is for the XWA Hardcore Championship, it is for the gold that these three men have put their bodies on the line for. This deserves more than that and he knows it. This one will go on. As the seconds build up the fans get impatient. They start roaring “this is awesome”, a chant that quickly fills up the entire arena as they will on the three men. At first it doesn’t seem like anything is going to happen, and then Riley Williamson begins to stir. It’s not big, he doesn’t kip-up, he doesn’t rise onto his feet like the second coming of Hardcore Jesus, but he does push himself up onto his knees. He grabs hold of the bottom rope, then the middle, leaning against them. He grips the ropes tightly, fearing that his body may give out if he lets go of them. He pulls himself up onto one knee, grabs hold of the top rope and pulls himself up onto his feet. He’s unsteady, requiring the top rope to stop himself falling for the first few seconds. When he has his footing he staggers across the ring, spotting the steel chair that was brought into play earlier on in this match. With Shade completely out cold Riley grabs him one final time and pulls him up onto his feet. Putting Shade’s head underneath his arm, Double under-hooking Shade, Riley lifts him up and then drops down with Shade dropping face first onto the Steel Chair! Hitting a Double Underhook DDT. The Crowd Ohh’s in approval, while Shade lays there almost unconsciously. His head could be heard hitting the thud of the Chair as Riley rolls him over and goes for a cover, hooking the leg.

TH..NO!

Ted: How was he even able to kick out of that?!?!

Joey: This is for the Hardcore Championship Ted, and Shade wants to hold that belt again. The Belt that he should have never lost.

Despite the vicious chair shot to the skull it isn’t enough to get the pinfall as Shade kicks out on two. Riley, a little put out after The Ultimate Synner’s sacrifice to give him the time to get the chair led to nought, grabs a still groggy Shade up off of the floor and pulls him slowly up onto his feet. Riley grabs Shade by the scruff of the neck but Shade drives a fist into the heavily tapped midsection of the champion sending Williamson straight to the ground. Riley holds in a scream of pain as Shade uses a few seconds to catch his breath following the steel chair shot. The Floridan grabs hold of the ring ropes to try and pull himself up but Shade isn’t about to let him get to his feet and instead drives his boot straight into the back of Riley’s knee, The former RSD Champion dropping to the floor only stopping himself from hitting it face first with his hands. With Riley grounded Shade makes a beeline for the steel chair that Riley used on him just minutes ago. Picking up the chair Shade shouts something about payback. As Riley rolls onto his back "Hell's Pyromaniac" lifts the chair up and tries to bring it down directly onto Riley’s knee. As the chair comes down Riley brings up his good leg and kicks the chair clean in the centre. While the sudden blunt force jolts his leg a little it protects him from any further damage to his knee. Next Riley shoots out his boot straight into the gut of Shade, forcing "The Terror of Death"back and giving Riley time to grab hold of the ring apron and pull himself up into a leaning position. Shade brings the chair up again but Riley charges forwards, drives his shoulder into the waist of the Albany Native, he turns around driving him straight into the corner. Shade drops the chair in the sudden move as Riley limps back and then runs at Shade again only this time the Former Hardcore Champion manages to grab him in his charge, as he charges forward he catches Riley off guard with a Spear!

Ted: These Men have gave it their all here Tonight. I cannot believe this match hasn’t even ended yet with someone Bleeding.

Joey: Shade has a chance now to complete his goal. To win the Hardcore Championship.

1..

THR…

The Hardcore Champion gets a shoulder up at the very last moment. Shade slightly frustrated, certain that there was no getting up from the Spear. But Riley did kick out, but the damage is certainly very real. His eyes are open but he’s staring at the ceiling and it isn’t even certain that he knows what he’s seeing. Shade gets up onto his feet and goes over to the cage wall. He has second thoughts about climbing; wanting to win this one with a legitimate pinfall or submission victory but the escape holds more chance right now. Then he remembers what is on the line here and begins climbing. Shade continues the climb one step at a time. On the mat Jared Jerusalem has rolled onto his front and is crawling towards the ring ropes. He’s down, he’s hurting, but he isn’t out, not yet. He can feel his moment, his opportunity, slipping away right in front of him. But he’s Jared Jerusalem and just like Shade he isn’t going to stop because of a little pain. He reaches the ropes as Shade reaches the halfway mark up the cage. Using the ropes to pull himself up Jared begins climbing up the cage. There’s a moment when Shade seems like he’s too far away as Shade nears the top but Jared manages to get a hand on his boot. Shade kicks it away and reaches the top. He tries to pull himself up and over but Jared gets another grip on his leg and uses it to pull himself up so he’s level with Shade.

Ted: This can’t be safe. Both Shade and Jared are now fighting at the Top of the Cage!

Joey: Riley is down, and we may have a NEW! Hardcore Champion!

Shade throws an elbow that connects with the side of Jerusalem’s jaw, the self-proclaim savior of XWA nearly losing his grip and falling off the top of the twenty foot cage. Jerusalem replies with a right hand of his own as both men teeter with only one hand gripped on the steel. Shade throws another elbow off to the side but Jared keeps hold and replies with one of his own. This one does its job and Shade loses his grip. He nearly drops but manages to steady himself at the very last second. Jared uses the opportunity and goes to pull himself over but at the last second Shade leaps across, wraps his arms around the waist of the piece of Eden and both men crash twenty feet off of the top of the cage to the mat beneath!

Ted: OH MY GOD!

Joey: Jesus- FUCKING Christ! I think Shade might have killed himself!

A massive “holy shit” chant rings out around the arena as Ryn Sanu races over to the broken looking bodies of Shade and Jared Jerusalem. Both Shade and Jared are just lying where they fell, a twenty foot drop having knocked both men out. Sanu goes from Shade to Jared but neither show any signs of consciousness. A couple more seconds pass before Jared’s arm rises up, reaching for the ring ropes. At the same time Shade pulls himself onto his front and begins clawing his way over towards the ropes and the cage. Riley rolls near the bottom rope still clutching onto his waist from the impact of the Spear. Both men are moving slowly. They’re suffering from the fall. But they’re determined, determined to win this, determined to keep fighting no matter what it takes. It’s a slow move for both men but they both manage to reach the ring ropes. Both grab hold of the bottom rope, using it to pull themselves up. It’s a slow haul but they pull themselves up onto his knees. Next they pull themselves unsteadily up onto their feet. Both men hold onto the ropes tightly as they try to keep themselves steady. XWA referee Ryn Sanu moves from Jared to Shade, checking that both men are okay to continue with this match. Both men refuse for anything to be done until they have finished things their way, both of them determined to win this match or, as has already been proven, die trying. Both men turn around, meeting each other’s gaze, and go after each other. Locking up in the middle of the ring both men try to gain the ground needed to take control. In a mirror image of the start of the match Shade turns it into a side headlock. It’s a sloppy one though, both of these men are fighting at far less than one hundred percent, and Jared manages to push him away. Shade turns around straight into a right hand and fires off with a return right hand of his own. The two continue to exchange right hands, blow after blow connecting with both men refusing to fall. Then Shade blocks a blow and suddenly throws out a head butt. Jared staggers backwards, grabs Jared and whips him into the ropes. Jared rebounds and Shade bends down, flipping Jerusalem up and over him on the return, Jared flying over Shade and hitting the mat with a thud. Shade follows up quickly, grabbing Jared by the hair and pulling him up onto his feet. Holding Jared J by the back of the head Shade charges forwards and throws Jared face first into the cage. Jared hits it and literally bounces off, landing on his feet. Shade grabs Jerusalem as soon as his feet hit the ground and charges across the opposite side of the ring, throwing Jared straight into the cage for a second time. Again Jared bounces off of the cage and hits the mat, Shade grabbing him and whipping him towards the ring ropes, Jared rebounding off the ropes. On the return Shade grabbing Jared and placing him onto his shoulders in a fireman’s carry position, he pulls him over his shoulders afterwards, and falling onto a sitting position, driving Jared’s back onto the mat as he hit his Signature move, Pavement Greetings! (Samoan Driver)

Ted: We may have a New Champion here!

Joey: Go for the cover Shade! You have him!

THRE…

Riley leaps across the ring in an almost superhuman fashion, slamming his entire body into Shade and most importantly, breaking up the pin. Riley gets up, as well as Shade and Riley begins unmounting on Shade throwing some hard rights and Shade moves back from the hard strikes. With "The Ultimate Synner" now laying against the Ropes, Riley grabs onto his wrist and lunges him forward via, an Irish Whip. Rebounding off the ropes Shade returns and Riley moves aside, with his hand on the back of Shade’s head, he uses Shade’s speed against him, throwing him onto the Cage wall! Shade, now spaghetti legged, moves back and Riley turns him around lifting him up onto his shoulders Riley looks to put Shade away with his Finisher, The Torrential Drop! (F5) but Shade wiggles. While holding onto Hell's Pyromaniac, Riley moves toward the Cage Wall and Shade grabs ahold of it as he now gets off of Riley’s shoulder and begins climbing the wall. Riley turns around and sees him and begins to pursue him.

Ted: Shade is really attempting Fate here Tonight. This is his second time climbing the Cage Wall the first, being just a few minutes ago as he took Jared down from the Top of the Cage.

Joey: He is Shade Ted! This is a man who defines Hardcore, not Riley.

As both men now reach the midpoint, Riley starts throwing punches towards the kidney area of Shade. Shade, still managing to hold on tries to kick Riley down but each kick finds no point. A few more hits towards the Kidney area and Shade stops, but still holds onto the Wall. Riley, begins to climb a bit more until he can see Shade’s face. He then grabs ahold of the Master of Syn’s head and smashes it against the Wall. He does this again and this time Shade lets go and goes flying down crashing onto the mat. Riley then drops to the ropes and while holding onto the Wall he moves across and goes into the corner of the ring. In a standing position, Riley looks down at Shade and points down at him “New York!!!” he yells before jumping off the Top rope. With his arm right in front of his head, he lands an elbow directly onto Shade’s chest as he hit The Blading Drop! (Elbow Drop) Shade clutches onto his chest while Riley gets onto his feet. The Mystery Woman that Jared brought with him earlier now starts hitting the Cage Wall screaming at Jared to “Not get up!” as Riley now begins to stalk both of his opponents. Out of the Two men, unlucky, Jared is the first one to stir. Grabbing onto the middle and top rope he pulls himself up and gingerly turns around. Williamson, kicks Jared in the gut and then places Jared’s head onto his shoulders looking to put his opponent away with The Stun of Death! But Jared, with his hands on Riley’s back, pushes him off and he goes running towards the ropes. Jared runs back to the ropes and while coming back Jared hits the G.F.Y. (Running Knee) and Riley’s head almost snaps back as he falls back first onto the mat. Jared squirms on top of Riley and lifts his knee up going for a cover.

THRE...NO!

Jared sits up and just lies there. He shakes his nod, denying the fact that Riley just kicked out so instead he goes over to Shade’s body which is lying near the bottom rope, pulls his leg more closer to the center of the ring and goes for a cover.

THRE..NO!

Jared sits up, completely unable to believe that he couldn’t pick up a pinfall victory by either man. Crawling over to the ring ropes Jared leans against them on his knees, his face covered by his hands. A few seconds pass before he pulls himself up with a new focus. Limping over to Shade, the piece of eden lifts him up and goes to whip him into the ring ropes only for Shade to counter. Jared hits the ropes and on the return Shade quickly cuts him off short delivering a high knee onto Jared’s stomach Jared doubles over and Shade throws him over the rope. With Jared now leaning against the Cage wall, Shade lifts Jared up and as Double J’s legs now touch on the Top rope, The Ultimate Synner then places Jared’s head onto his shoulder. Shade then drops down and hits his Finisher, The S.Y.N. Drive! (Rope Hung Stunner) Shade now begins to crawl toward the Cage door.

Ted: I wonder why Shade didn’t go for a cover. He had Jared already beaten and Riley is already down.

Joey: That’s a good question. Maybe he wants to win this match the hard way?

Shade begins to slowly crawl towards the door. Using all the strength and leftover Stamina that he has in this match. As the Referee on the outside now begins to unlock the Door, The Mystery Woman who is next to him watches on worried. With Shade now getting closer to the Door, she taps the Referee on his shoulder. As he turns, She then slaps him hard across the face and pushes him down against the Steel Steps. He sits down and holds onto the side of his head in pain and just as Shade peaks his head out, The Mystery Woman then slams the Door shut onto Shade’s face! The Ultimate Synner moves back into the ring and moves back and forth, with his hands onto his face as he spazzes back and forth uncontrollably. Riley who is on his belly, uses his hands and pushes himself up onto his knees, almost out of breath as he tries to catch his breath. Not knowing what had just happen between the Woman and Shade. Shade then takes a hand out with the other covering his forehead, grabs onto the middle rope. Riley now gets to a wobbly vertical base and tries to shake off the effects of the Running Knee he received. With Blood now dripping off of the cut on Shade’s forehead, Shade now pulls himself up with both hands and leans against the ropes belly first. With The Blood beginning to drip down it makes it difficult for the Albany Native to see and just about when he turns around, Riley grabs onto his arm and lifts him up over onto his shoulders. He then does a quick 150 degree spin, causing Shade to fly off his shoulders and onto the mat. He hits the Torrential Drop! (F5) Riley drops down ontop of Shade and the Ref slides down and counts.

Ding, Ding, Ding!!!

Laura: Here is your winner and still Hardcore Champion, Riley Williamson!!

With the Cage now still lowered, The Mystery Woman hits the Cage Wall upset. Enraged that she just cost her Boyfriend the match. Meanwhile in the ring, Riley is being helped up by Ryn Sanu. Both Shade and Jared are being checked out by officials. It takes a couple of seconds before Riley can get to a vertical base as Ryn Sanu hands Riley the Hardcore Belt. Riley raises it above his head for his Hometown to see and they cheer loudly for their Hero. The last image we see is Riley exiting the Cage as we now get ready for the Carnage vs. Hitman Alex match.
