The scene switches to the back, where Lex Demise is preparing for his big title defence. He’s warming up as a member of the technical crew appears and tells him that it’s time to make a move.
DS: Here we go, Mayo, main event time!
JS: Ladies and gentlemen. The following match is our Main Event of the evening, and is for the BWA Heavyweight Championship!
The lights go dark, and “Fear” by Disturbed plays over the PA system, as Lex Demise slowly walks to the ring. A lone crimson spotlight follows him to the ring. Lex is dressed in a black trench coat over his wrestling attire, with black sunglasses over his eyes.
JS: Coming to the ring, from Hartford, USA, is the reigning and defending BWA Heavyweight Champion. He stands at 6’6″ inches tall, and weighs in at 257 lbs. He is the master of the Epic Tragedy… The Xtreme Icon… LEX DEMISE!!
Demise slowly walks into the ring and extends his arms in the shape of a cross once he climbs into the ring. Fire explodes from the ring posts and the lights come back up as he removes his trench coat and sunglasses.
DS: This is it, Mayo, Demise’s chance to prove himself worthy as the BWA Champion!
SM: But he’s set to face a very worked up Angel, out to wipe the grin off Demise’s face. He didn’t take kindly to what he said about Maile, and after his big win at Night of Armageddon… he’s on a roll!
The crowd falls silent as they expect the arrival of Angel. After a while there is no sign of the AoWF World Champion.
SM: What now?
DS: Lord knows, Mayo.
Suddenly the X-Tron flickers into action. We see Angel, Maile and Cica, in a bar somewhere. The camera pans back to reveal the location of the bar… it’s on a cruise ship! Angel has a large smile on his face, and a drink in his hand.
A: So, Demise. You want a piece of me? YOU WANT A P-P-PIECE OF ME?
The girls look at Angel, who starts to laugh.
A: Sorry… it’s the drink talking.
Angel turns to face the barman.
A: Barman! Why do you keep giving me these? It’s making me all light headed!
He lets out a big smile.
A: Three more please!
Angel then turns back to the camera.
A: Where was I? Ah, yes, Demise. For those of you who failed to see NoA 4 this past week, will not know about the collapse… and re-birth of the MoA. And at the centre of the new, improved, MoA? Well, it could only be La Stygia! And you will have failed to see me unite the AoWF World and Undisputed Championships. That, for the hard of thinking, makes me the best that the AoWF has to offer. And, seeing as how I’m at the top of the tree, I decided that now might be a good time to take a little vacation. I’ll be gone for a few weeks, enjoying myself for a change. So, sorry Lex, looks like we’ll just have to do this another time! Ciao!
Angel starts on another drink as the X-Tron fades. Demise stands in the ring, incredibly pissed off.
DS: Oh, boy. Angel fails to show for a match with Demise for the second time!
SM: Demise wanted to prove himself as more than a paper champion… and that chance has been taken away from him!
The cameras follow Demise as he leaves the arena. He bumps into Hannah Kendall.
HK: Lex, wait up. I know you wanted this match with Angel, so you could prove to yourself and the BWA that you are worthy of that title. So, at UpRising I’m putting you in a title match which should help you do just that. It’s you… in a street fight… against Vindicator!
In the background you can hear the crowd roar. Demise smiles.
HK: Oh, and Lex. As a favour to me… beat the shit outta the guy!
Demise smiles wickedly.
LD: Consider it done!
Demise walks away, the BWA Title flung over his shoulder.
SM: You heard it here first folks, Vindicator against Lex Demise in a BWA Title match on Monday night! Well we’re outta time, for Dan “The Man” Stevens, this is Scott Mayo saying Good Fight, Goodnight!
