DING DING DING!!!

The bell rings and the two men in the ring immediately clash in an epic collar and elbpw tie-up, a gruelling contest of strength which James Best overcomes with ease, using his obvious size advantage to force Dante Cross back against the ropes. Dante attempts to fancily flip his way out of James grip, yet James simply strikes him across the chest with a punishing chop, sending Dante staggering back from the predicament he came and right into the path of a brutal european uppercut slice, one which jars the Intercontinental champion, stumbling right into a tremendous big boot to the skull!! Dante drops like a sack of particularly heavy potatoes and James grips him by the legs, dragging him toward the middle of the ring only to cruelly catapult Dante into the turnbuckles, already timing the rebound to catch Dante with his almost forgotten WRITERS BLOCK Ace Crusher! James covers Dante quickly, not too shy to take a quick steal in what would surely be an upset victory. One Two! Referee Ryu Sanu is on point, doing his job in impressive time but Dante powers out of the cover, James protests against the count blaming the Japanese referees counting skills shouting 'DIDNT YOU WATCH SESAME STREET?!!' turning back to Dante only the champion and potential 'Millionairre@ reaches upward, grabbing James and ploughing him to the ring mat with an out of nowhere Reverse STO, swivelling his pelvis to snake his leg around James neck and bend him backwards with his wicked neck crank maneuver!!

James grabs at the ropes for dear life, panting desperately as he grabs hold of them and the referre breaks the brutal submission attempt accordingly, Dante not playing by the rulebook at all but releasing James nonetheless and liberatied from his bind, The self-professed Narcissist duoes Dante into a small package! One Two Three!!! James drops the Intercontinental champion and runs for dear life up the entrance ramp, having just hit and run, robbing the bank that is Dante Cross of any whiff that is a Million Dollars and the crowd boo James mercilessly.

DING! DING! DING!

In a redemption match for a shot to participate in the Million Dollar Chamber, the Son of Sin Dante Cross looks to right his error of last week when he fell short to Chris Dolmeth. Now he goes up against the Metrosexual Predator, James Best. With the bell rung, the two men come out of their corners and move to meet in the center of the ring. Cross saunters forward to Best, who steps to the Crucifixionist and smirks...while gently rubbing the underside of his own nipples. Cross gives the man a uncertain look, shaking his head as he begins to side step and circle his opponent. Best too begins to move sideways as the men look for an opening against the other. Cross has his hands outstretched, ready for a lock-up, but Best keeps his hands at his sides. The look on the Smooth Criminal's face is as if he has just heard a swell joke, something that only seems to annoy the Son of Sin. Cross goes forward to grab at Best, but James goes under his opponent, spins on a heel, and slaps the back of Dante's head almost playfully. Cross stumbles forward, more from surprise than the strike itself. He holds the back of his head and turns around with anger in his eyes. Best is rolling on the balls of his feet back and forth as he continues to sidestep. Cross goes back into the motions with him and again moves in position for a collar-tie-up. He jumps forward and Best ducks, but Cross only gave a feint, halting mid-step and reversing his momentum to come around with a sweep to the legs of Best. James is still bent from the duck and as the leg sweep comes, he has no time to jump up from the move so he dives to the mat in a roll, turning into the move to end up back upright in a squatting position. Cross makes to leap forward and Best rises to his feet and falls back, but Cross was only moving for another feint. Best plays it off nicely as he continues to fall and hit the mat then begins to make the motions of a snow angel on the ring floor. Cross puts his hands on his hip, visibly peeved at the antics of James Best. The Metrosexual Predator ignores the referee who is calling for the match to get underway in true, meanwhile Dante rushes forward and leaps with a Diving Elbow to the lying Metrosexual. Best rolls away to avoid the elbow and Cross hits nothing but canvas. The Son of Sin reaches for his elbow which took all of his weight while Best rises and goes to kick the downed Son of Sin. Cross reaches out and catches the incoming kick, grabbing the leg and with a whip, pulls Best to the mat and in quick fashion, maneuvers into a Single Legged Boston Crab. Best is caught by surprise at the fast submission, but Cross isn't tightening the hold for that. Instead, he pulls on the captured leg of Best and with forceful palm strikes begins beating on the knee of Best. He's trying to knock it out of the socket! With the loose hold Cross has on the move, Best is able to wriggle out of the hold, but stays on the mat holding his left knee. Yet he still has his wits about him enough to avoid an incoming kick from Dante Cross aimed at his head, quickly taking his upper body down to the mat to lie flat, but Cross goes into the momentum of the kick, turning it into a flip and landing on the prone Metrosexual with a Standing Shooting Star. The referee slaps his hand on the mat. ONE...TW—Best kicks out of the early pinning attempt!

Cross looks to keep the momentum on his side as he brings Best to his feet and just as quickly into the air with a Release German Suplex. Best lands hard from the move and holds the back of his neck as he makes to rise to his feet, but Cross runs forward and goes to the mat with a Baseball Slide, striking the left knee of the Metrosexual, the weakened knee buckling under Best's own weight. James goes to his knees. Cross stands over his opponent and begins sending devastating kicks to the chest of James Best, the sound of which carries throughout the arena. Best teetering to and fro now. Cross grabs him around the head and drops back for a short DDT, putting Best on his head. He keeps ahold of his opponent and still with the man's head between his arm, brings them both to their feet. A grab of the Metrosexual's tights and Dante pulls Best up into the air and into position for what can only be a Brainbuster. Best isn't out of this yet, as the Metrosexual begins struggling in the air against the Son of Sin and balance lost by the latter, Best sends down a knee to the skull of Cross, forcing the man to drop the Narcissist. Cross holds the top of his skull and gives his head a shake. When he looks up, he sees only the leg of Best as the Metrosexual comes at him with a Leg Lariat that takes Dante Cross off his feet. Best moves on Cross, but the Son of Sin scrambles away and to the ropes. James is on him though, rushing the Son of Sin with a Running European Uppercut that slumps the Crucifixionist against the ropes and giving another for good measure—and another—and another! Best unleashes an onslaught of some of XWA's most devastating European Uppercuts that take Dante a few inches into the air each time one connects. With Dante well and dazed, Best whips the Son of Sin to the opposite ropes himself rebounds off of the others for momentum to meet in the center. Best runs at Cross and goes for a Discus Clothesline, but Cross ducks it and both men hit the opposite ropes only to come around for another go at one another. Cross moves to avoid another running strike from Best, but it's the latter's time to feint as James goes lower than the Son of Sin, puts his hands on Dante's chest and pushes the man up into the air with all the strength about him. Cross flails in the air and Best pulls the Son of Sin out of the air with a Double Knee Backbreaker. Cross doesn't need a chiropractor after that cracking Best just gave him. The Metrosexual covers the Son of Sin. ONE...TW—Cross kicks out of it but holds his back after the close call.

The Son of Sin is on his front side while holding his back, still reeling from Best's attack. The Metrosexual backs away and lies in wait as his opponent struggles to his feet. Dante Cross is on his hands and knees now. Best runs forward and leaps into the air with his right leg reared up and comes down at Dante with the Curb Stomp he calls the Buka—Cross punches the left knee of James Best! The Metrosexual crumbles to the mat, succumbing to the weakened knee. Cross backs away as Best struggles to rise from his knees only to rush forward, leap into the air and come down with the man's own finisher! James Best's face hits the canvas as Dante Cross hits the Bukakke in the middle of the ring. The Son of Sin rolls over the Metrosexual and puts a forearm in his face as he covers for the pin. ONE...TWO...THREE! Dante Cross is going into the Million Dollar Chamber!
