We fade to the back where Evan Envi is holding a rag to his bleeding nose, sitting in the trainer's room with a smile on his face.
Doctor: Alright. I think you're good to go.Evan Envi pushes himself up off the medical examination bed and makes his way toward the door-- but stops as it's thrust open. The crowd responds with a loud mixed reaction as Meltdown's Vice-General Manager, Sienna Harrison steps inside, looking at her brother in shock.
Sienna: Oh my God. Are you alright?!Evan: I'm great.Sienna: Christ, Evan. LOOK at you!Doctor: He should be fine. Just some swelling and bleeding. Nothing's broken. Yet.He winks at the siblings and makes his way out of the examination room, into the hallway. Evan quickly breaks the silence.
Evan: He accepted.Sienna: What do y--Evan: I got it. I got my match. I... Hahahaha... I had to take everything from him, but I got it!Evan holds his hand up for a high-five. Sienna looks at him in silence for a moment and sighs.
Sienna: Worth it?Evan: Huh?Sienna: Was it worth it?Evan slowly lowers his hand and looks at her for a few moments, finally scoffing at her.
Evan: I saved your job. Some people would just say thank you.Sienna: But you didn't do it for me...Evan: Sorry. I thought you had enough of the attention on yourself every Monday night. I thought I was helping you get what you want. Eh? Guess not.
He shakes his head at Sienna and brushes past her.
Evan: Pardon me.Sienna sighs as Evan exits the room, leaving her there in silence. She crosses her arms and shakes her head... Though, a thoughtful expression crosses her face afterward.
Sienna: He's lost his mind.She rolls her eyes and follows after Evan as our scene fades to ringside.
Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and is your APW Overdrive Main Event!The fans cheer loudly, and the cheers continue as “Destroya,” by My Chemical Romance, hits the speakers and the arena lights go black.
White laser lights shoot from the stage in a fan pattern, and twirl back and forth as strobe lights begin to flash about the arena. Biggs makes his entrance to a loud pop, and has on a referee shirt and slacks as he heads down the ramp, slapping fives with the fans.
Paige: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the guest referee for this match, Biggs!Harvey: Biggs will be facing off with one of the participants of this match up in just 17 nights at RassleMania, none other than Level-One! Yet despite this fact, Biggs said earlier tonight that he intends to call this match right down the middle!Chase: Rule #1: Biggs lies!Harvey: I'm sure that while Biggs would appreciate the Doctor Who reference on your part, I don't think he'd appreciate you calling him a liar!The screen goes dark for a moment as the crowd goes quiet. Suddenly Cristina's voice is heard screaming.
[shadow=purple,right,1200]"I Awake from Madness, One More Time!"[/shadow]
Lighting bursts across the titantron as “Trip the Darkness,” by Lacuna Coil, blares over the speakers.. Two explosions rip across the stage and then Shadow emerges from behind the curtain. The arena crowd is on their feet, cheering. The camera color scheme has shifted to black and white; Shadow slowly walks down the ramp with purpose.
Paige: Making his way to the ring first, from Denton, Texas, standing at six foot eleven, weighing in at two hundred and ninety nine pounds, Shadow!Harvey: Shadow is certainly fired up for his match with Slade Craven at RassleMania, but he has a huge task ahead of him tonight as he takes on the only man to hold the APW Undisputed Championship four times, Level-One!Chase: Shadow may have more guts than brains at times, but I can tell you one thing, he sure is not afraid of Level-One or his reputation!The Usher of Darkness wears his leather duster and strides through the fog that billows at his knees. Lighting continues to flash on the screens behind him and more fireworks explode as he marches toward the ring. While making his way around the ring, Shadow shakes hands with the kids, the fans who are there and even pose for a picture with one lucky person. He turns after circling the ring and pulls himself up and over the top rope. Inside Shadow raises one arm high as the two corners behind him burst with flames. The color returns to normal as the fans cheer wildly. Shadow nods to Biggs, who nods in return.
Chase: See that right there! They're conspiring against Level-One already!Harvey: Oh please! They're just acknowledging one another! It's not like he slipped him a ten dollar bill in the middle of the ring!''Almost famous'' by Eminem hits the PA system resulting in a stirring of the crowd. Several seconds later, Level-One steps out from behind the curtains cam corder in hand. He holds it up to his face and points it straight down at the ring before panning around at the rest of the crowd. As he walks down the ramp, he points the cameras in the faces of the fans whom are scowling with anger.
Paige: Weighing in at 263 points from Toronto, Ontario, Canada currently residing in Hollywood, California! He is a FOUR TIME APW Undisputed Champion! Please welcome... Level-One!!!!Harvey: Level-One has refused to wrestle ever since that $500,000 bounty was placed on his head a couple of weeks ago! Overdrive GM Johnny Rebel forced him to compete here tonight, otherwise, his match with Biggs at RassleMania would have been canceled!Chase: Level-One shouldn't even be here tonight! With that bounty on his head, he's a marked man!Level-One continues down the ramp and as the crowd boos he shouts over them into the camera - seeing it as the opportune time to create a blog for his Youtube channel on his way to the ring. He rolls under the bottom rope and sticks the video camera in the referee's face telling him that he's going to face hell from Hollywood if he doesn't do his job. With that he leans against the ropes and casually continues to create his video blog, waiting for the match to get underway. With both competitors in the ring, Biggs calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!
Level-One vs. Shadow
[/u]
Special Guest Referee: BiggsLevel-One places his camcorder on the mat in the corner, as Shadow comes rushing in and almost takes his head off with a Clothesline! As L1 gets back to his feet, he gets taken down with another Clothesline! Level-One is up once more, and gets a third Clothesline for his efforts, drawing loud cheers from the fans on behalf of Shadow! After the third Clothesline, Level-One rolls out of the ring to regroup.
Harvey: Shadow came here to prove something tonight! While Level-One was a bit too nonchalant in putting his camcorder away, Shadow made him pay for it!Chase: Level-One wasn't ready! Biggs rung the bell early! What a dirty trick!Inside the ring, Biggs starts the mandatory 10 count, and is counting at a normal pace as Level-One points up at Shadow, telling Biggs to have him pull back from the ropes. Biggs motions for Shadow to scoot back a bit, but when Shadow steps through the ropes instead, Biggs just kind of shrugs his shoulders and continues to the count. Level-One runs right in to confront Shadow on the floor, but Shadow ducks the attempted punch and gets behind Level-One, hooking him up for a Full Nelson Slam, driving his tailbone into the arena floor! Level-One shouts out in pain as Shadow gives him a hard boot to the back of the head, sending him falling sideways. Biggs is up to seven by the time Shadow slides in and out of the ring, resetting the count!
Harvey: Have you ever seen Level-One take so long to get out of the blocks in a match? Shadow is staying right on top of him!Chase: Well it's got to be because he's distracted! Not only does Level-One have to deal with the fact that his opponent at RassleMania is also the special guest ref in this match, but there's the matter of the half-a-million dollar bounty on his head!Shadow begins to pull Level-One up off the floor mats, but Level-One gives him a shot right at the belt line, to where it's almost too close to call! Biggs warns Level-One from inside the ring. L1 heeds no attention, focusing instead on chaining together a series of rights and lefts that back Shadow into the barricade. Biggs is up to a count of five as Level-One then takes a couple of steps back and Clotheslines Shadow right over the barricade into the crowd!
Harvey: This doesn't bode well for Shadow! Not only does he need to get back up, but he needs to get over the barricade and back into the ring with only half a ten count remaining!Level-One slides back into the ring, yelling at Biggs to count faster. Biggs continues to count at a normal pace, which frustrates L1. He grabs Biggs by the shirt collar, telling him to count faster. Biggs just smirks, and reminds Level-One that he'd best take his hands off of him. While the two continue to argue in the ring, Shadow has made his way up to his feet, and climbs over the barricade. Biggs turns to resume the count, and reaches nine before Shadow just barely slides in! Level-One is fuming as he rushes over and stomps Shadow mercilessly! Biggs gets in there to break things up, as Shadow's foot is beneath the ropes!
Chase: As much as I hate to admit it, Level-One just cost himself a victory there! Had he not insisted that Biggs counted quicker, there's no way that Shadow would have beaten that count!Level-One shoves Biggs out of his way, and heads back towards Shadow, giving him a couple more stomps before Biggs gets right in there again to back him up!
Biggs: Watch it, dude! I will disqualify you if I have to! Back it up!Level-One begrudgingly backs up, as Shadow pushes himself back up to a vertical base. Once he's up, Level-One comes right in to try and smother Shadow with a volley of rights and lefts that back him up into the ropes. Level-One utilizes a Forearm Smash to the face before going for an Irish Whip, which Shadow reverses! On the rebound, he scoops Level-One up for a Powerslam! Shadow hooks the leg, 1

Level-One gets his shoulder up! Shadow gets back up to his feet, and slaps his right arm a bit, signaling for the Big Clothesline! As Level-One is back to his feet, Shadow runs in, but Level-One ducks the attempted Clothesline, and as Shadow puts on the breaks, L1 pulls off a beautiful Pele Kick, nailing Shadow on the crown of his head! Level-One is quick to go for the cover, 1

Shadow powers his way out!
Harvey: Both of these guys are going for their power moves! If either one of them can chain enough together, I don't care how tough you are, their opponent won't be able to kick out!Chase: That's the thing about these Big Man matches. While Shadow and Level-One both have excellent conditioning, these types of matches don't generally last that long! Battles of the Behemoths are not drawn out affairs, they're short, and violent!Level-One scowls as he pulls Shadow up by the hair, punching him in the face a couple of times on the way up. Once he has Shadow up, he pulls him in for a Belly-to-Belly Suplex, which he follows up with a Boston Crab on the mat! Level-One is gritting his teeth, and a vein in his neck is bulging as he pulls back hard on the legs of Shadow. Biggs is on one knee, asking Shadow if he gives up, but Shadow shakes his head no before using all his power to push himself and Level-One up, and drags himself and Lester to the ropes, getting a hand on the bottom rope to break the count! Biggs begins the count, “1! 2! 3! 4!” Level-One lets go on four.
Harvey: What a show of strength by Shadow there! Not only did he withstand the pain of the Boston Crab, but he also had the strength to drag Level-One and himself towards the ropes! That's almost six hundred pounds of man he dragged across the mat!Chase: It's impressive, sure, but I'll be impressed if he's able to beat Level-One without Biggs' help!As Shadow begins to use the ropes to pull himself back up, Level-One rushes in with a hard knee to the small of his back,drawing loud boos from the crowd, and an admonishment from Biggs. Level-One heeds no attention to Biggs' warning, and steps in, grabbing a hold of the top rope before driving his knee into the back of Shadow's neck, choking him on the center rope! Biggs starts the five count, and Level-One relents of four! But in a flash, Level-One is right back to the choke, pressing his knee hard into the back of Shadow's neck! Biggs reaches four again, and again, Level-One relents on four. L1 goes in again to choke Shadow again, but Biggs gets between the two men, and shoves Level-One back, getting a loud response from the crowd! Biggs is red in the face as he tells Level-One to back it up! Level-One, for his part, looks like he's about to deck Biggs, and that it's taking all of his might to not just unload on his RassleMania opponent. Shadow makes it up all the way to his feet, and once he's up, Level-One comes charging in again, but Shadow low bridges him, grabbing the top rope and falling down! The fans are on their feet as Level-One spills to the floor, and Biggs begins to count!
Harvey: This could be the turning point in the match for Shadow! He's got a few moments to regroup, and he also has the high ground!“1!”
“2!'
Chase: Come on, Lester, get up!“3!”
“4!”
In the ring, Shadow is to his feet, motioning for Level-One to get back into the ring. Outside, L1 is up to a knee, and is in no danger of actually being counted out.
“5!”
“6!”
Level-One is up to both feet, and beckons for Shadow to join him outside. Biggs leans through the ropes to yell at L1 to get back into the ring.
“7!”
“8!”
Shadow shows no signs of taking Level-One's bait, and the former Four Time APW Undisputed Champion has no choice but to slide back into the ring, only to receive a couple of well placed stomps to the back of the head from Shadow! Biggs gets an arm up to back Shadow away from Level-One, and once Level-One is to his feet, he steps out of the way, allowing Shadow to charge in. Level-One sees him coming, and Backbody Drops him over the ropes, but Shadow lands feet first on the apron, getting a hold of the top rope to keep his balance!
Harvey: Look at that agility!Chase: I'm surprised he could stay on!Level-One turns around to see Shadow still on the apron, and fires a heavy right hand at him, but Shadow blocks it and responds with a right of his own! Level-One fires another right, and again, Shadow blocks it and responds with another right of his own! Level-One is reeling a bit as Shadow reaches over and pulls him in, trying to Suplex him over the ropes! Shadow gets him most of the way up, but Level-One is struggling the whole time. The best Shadow can muster is getting Level-One out onto the apron with him, and the two men begin to exchange blows in earnest once more! Shadow gets the advantage, and takes a step back, winding up to launch Level-One off the apron and back first into the ring steps with a Spartan Kick! Level-One howls out in pain, and kicks his legs back and forth as he clutches his back! Biggs goes out to check and make sure that he's not injured, but Shadow is right down there to pull Level-One back up and roll him into the ring! He goes for a cover, and Biggs slides into the ring to make the count, 1

Level-One kicks out!
Harvey: Shadow can be down right nasty when he wants to be! He could have seriously injured Level-One there!Chase: Biggs should have disqualified Shadow for that! It was too brutal!Harvey: Would you be calling for a DQ so vehemently had Level-One utilized the steps in that manner?Chase: ….Probably not.Harvey: My point exactly.Shadow continues to focus on the back of Level-One, giving him a couple of hard stomps before pulling him up and hoisting him up for a Stalling Suplex! The fans count “1-Mississippi, 2-Mississippi,” getting up to 10-Mississippi before Shadow drills Level-One into the mat! He doesn't give L1 any time to recover, pulling him back and shooting him into the ropes, catching him on the rebound with a ring shaking Spinebuster! With Level-One down, Shadow takes a few steps back, and begins slapping his leg, signaling for the Big Boot!
Harvey: He's looking to put Level-One away here!Chase: This would be quite the feather in Shadow's cap if he can defeat Level-One here!The fans are chanting, “BOOT! BOOT! BOOT!” as L1 slowly makes his way up. Shadow comes rushing in, and Level-One eats the Big Boot square on the mouth! He's out like a light as Shadow makes the cover, and Biggs begins to count, 1

NO! Level-One just barely kicks out! The fans gasp in amazement!
Harvey: How the heck did Level-One kick out of that!? We've seen that Big Boot win Shadow a lot of matches!Chase: This is Level-Freakin'-One we're talking about here!Shadow keeps a focused look on his face, and takes a few steps back again, slapping his leg once more! The fans get another “BOOT! BOOT! BOOT!” chant going.
Harvey: He's going to go for the Big Boot again!After Level-One finally begins to make his way back up, Shadow comes in with a head of steam, going for another Big Boot! However, Level-One ducks it, and as Shadow turns around, he receives a swift kick to the gut for his troubles! Level-One pulls him in and twists him around in position for the Level-Advance, but as he tries to lift him up, his back gives out on him! Level-One falls to one knee, holding his back in pain. Shadow sees the opportunity, and pulls Level-One up into position for the Eclipse, but Level-One slides back behind Shadow, and grabs his head, pulling him down for an Orton Backbreaker! Level-One's back is screaming with pain as well, as both men are laid out on the mat!
Chase: That maneuver took just as much out of Level-One as it did Shadow! Shadow may be onto something here by targeting Level-One's back!Harvey: The focused assault from Shadow has prevented Level-One from being able to utilize the Level-Advance. I don't think he'll be able to use the Hash-tag or the Darkness Shine either, if his back is bothering him as much as he's letting on!Biggs is up to the count of four before both men start stirring, and they're up to their feet at the same time. Shadow is the fresher of the two men, and he pulls Level-One up into a Gorilla Press position! He begins to press him, with the fans counting along, “1! 2! 3!” After the third press, Level-One slides down beside Shadow, turns him around, and pulls him in for a Spike DDT! Level-One nurses his back as he sits up, pounding the downed Shadow with forearms and fists as the fans boo him loudly.
Chase: Just look at the fighting spirit of Level-One! He could have a severely injured back, and yet he's still doing anything and everything he can to hurt Shadow! Those fists and forearms may not seem like much, but add them all together, and there's no doubt, he's putting a hurting on Shadow!Level-One grabs a hold of Shadow's hair, and pulls him up as he begins to get up himself. Once Level-One is up to his feet, he gives Shadow a few more clubbing blows, before attempting to hoist him up for a Darkness Shine! However, his back won't let him, and Level-One has no choice but to abandon the attempt. Level-One is pissed off as he gives Shadow a few more punches, and Irish Whips him into the ropes. On the rebound, Level-One grabs a hold of Shadow, and shoots behind him, applying a Standing Cross Face Chicken Wing! The fans are trying to will Shadow on to break out, but Level-One has the hold in deep! Shadow's arms are flailing about, and Biggs asks him if he gives up, to which Shadow replies with a definitive NO! Shadow adjusts his weight, and uses his free arm to elbow Level-One in the midsection, breaking out of the hold! However, Level-One manages to keep a hold on the arm of Shadow, and tries to pull him in for a Flipping Clothesline, but Shadow ducks it, and as Level-One turns around, Shadow wraps his hand around the throat of Level-One! The fans are going wild as Shadow hoists Level-One up and drops him right back down with a Chokeslam! He goes for the pin, 1

3NO! Level-One gets his shoulder up just a millisecond before Biggs' hand hit the mat for the third and final time! Biggs shakes his head as he waves off the count.
Harvey: If it were any closer, Biggs would have needed a magnifying glass! Still, this has got to be frustrating for Shadow, who has thrown everything he has at Level-One!Chase: Well not everything! It looks like he has him set up for the Dark Storm!In the ring, Shadow has Level-One hoisted up onto his shoulders. He has a serious look on his face, and lets out an almost primal growl as he spins Level-One around and snaps into an Alabama Slama! However, Level-One somehow counters it into a Hurricanrana, and rolls through into a pinning position, forcing Biggs to make the count, 1

Winner: Level-One[/center]
Paige: Here is your winner, by pinfall, Level-One!Chase: OH MY GOODNESS! Level-One busted out a Hurricanrana, and picks up the win with it! Have you ever seen Level-One do that!?Harvey: I don't believe I ever have! But what a shocker! Shadow looked to be well onto his way to winning this contest, scoring a big upset in the process, but like he is wont to do, Level-One found a way to win this one!Shadow is pissed off as he gets to his feet, and exits the ring, cursing under his breath. Biggs is none-to-pleased either, as Level-One gloats in the ring, holding his back in pain.
Level-One: Raise my hand, ref! Come on! Raise my hand! Come on Ref Biggs, raise it, you son of b****!Biggs just glares at Level-One, shaking his head as he begrudgingly grabs a hold of Level-One's right wrist, and raises Level-One's arm in the air in victory.
Harvey: You can tell that Biggs is not happy with the results of the this match, but he is doing his duty as the referee of this match up! He called it right down the middle, like he said he would.Chase: I'm very surprised. I thought for sure Biggs would have done something to try and cost Level-One the match! Still, his honesty won't help him when these two meet in Toronto! I can't wait for that match!Shadow on his feet turns around and is BLASTED in the face with the billion dollar briefcase! The shot takes Shadow off his feet as he hits the canvas and rolls underneath the bottom rope. As a result, Biggs is quick to square up with Level-One as the two stand across from each other exchanging not the kindest of words. The crowd roars in approval as they're on the edge of their seats for what's to come.
Harvey: We're about to see a Rasslemania preview right here and right now, it's Level-One Vs. Biggs!Chase: No, no we're not! You know as well as I do that it would only cheapen the deal! These people need to PAY to see such a historical match!At the top of the ramp however out comes Meltdown hopeful, Mr. Dangerous! He runs as fast as he can before tumbling down the ramp full speed! The audience laughs as Mr. Dangerous rolls right under the ring, unbeknownst to the men inside of it.
Biggs: When are you going to get this through your thick head you dodo brain, I didn't put the bounty on your head!Level-One: At least I'd f*cking respect you for manning up and telling me the truth but you're nothing more then a self made b*tch who never had the balls to own up or embrace who he REALLY was! You did this to yourself Biggs!Before Level-One can attack Mr. Dangerous pops up from underneath the ring, slips in behind Level-One and grabs the case right out of his hands to the surprise of the crowd!
Harvey: It's Mr. Dangerous! Mr. Dangerous has just stolen the billion dollar briefcase from Level-One!Chase: Is he serious!? Level-One is going to murder him!Level-One is absolutely enraged as he charges forward at Mr. Dangerous who moves out of the way and has Level-One running chest first into the turn buckle. Mr. Dangerous turns and Biggs nails him with a boot to the stomach forcing him to peel over...
Harvey: WHAT!?Chase: HAHA!... Biggs hits the Spaced Out on Mr. Dangerous! The crowd is in shock as Biggs quickly snatches up the briefcase for himself! Level-One sees that Biggs is now in possession of the brief case and once again they share some words.
Level-One: If didn't put the bounty on my head then who the hell did!?Biggs: Well, you probably wouldn't like that answer very much!Biggs desperately points to the top of the ramp where eight hooded figures with the initials CRW on their backs march out from the back. They are wearing disguises and are all wielding their own weapon of choice. They stand side by side before all turning to each other and nodding their head up and down before they begin their intimidating march down to the ring.
Harvey: It's Code Red Wrestling and they're here to put a beat down on both Biggs and Level-One presumably to get their hands on the billion dollar briefcase!Chase: This is slander, Harvey! The last ''CRW'' attack on Level-One was suspect at best! Nobody in CRW has actually taken responsibility for the attack! How do we know it isn't APW under those sweat shirts!?Plus, I don't even think their roster is this big!The hooded individuals stand outside the ring. Two people on every corner as they wait for the right time to attack. Level-One and Biggs gravitate to the center of the ring naturally and bump into each other back to back! Quickly, they turn around and nod... before both charging the opposite sides of the ring, soaring over the top rope and taking out two attackers each!
''APW,
APW,
APW!''Harvey: Wow... that was amazing. It's pretty impressive that they were even on the same page considering all they've been through! Imagine if they were on the same team instead of against each other?Chase: You know in some alternate universe that would be amazing to see but we're dealing with reality where things don't quite work out the way they probably should.Biggs is trying to fight off a guy with a pair of nunchuks and another with a baton while Level-One has taken a much different approach. He's seen talking it over with the other two CRW attackers diplomatically.
Harvey: What the hell is Level-One doing? Chase: It's negotiating! I'm sure he's picked up a few tips from Felipe DeLoren a long the way and is putting them to great use!He seems to have worked a deal as the two CRW attackers allow him to beat and strip the shirt off a previously downed attack. With a smile on his face, Level-One puts the CRW shirt on and the crowd begins to boo without mercy!
Harvey: No, no, no! He can't do this!Chase: He can and he just did!Biggs ducks a shot with the baton as it cracks the other attacker in the face. Biggs grabs the nunchucks off of the attacker with a broken jaw and cracks the one with the baton in the knee with the nunchucks before wrapping them around the attackers throat!
Harvey: Biggs is in trouble right now![color=limegreenChase: He didn't play it smart. He deserves it![/color]
One of the attackers uses their Louisville slugger to drive it across the back of Biggs - which immediately breaks his grip on the other attacker. Biggs collapses to the mat as Level-One grabs the bat from the attacker and his buddy as he steps in front of Biggs and holds the bat right over the top of Bigg's skull.
Harvey: Oh, no! Don't do this Level-One! You have Biggs at Rasslemania... just wait until Rasslemania!Chase: HOMERUN, GRANDSLAM, HIT THIS ONE OUT OF THE PARK LEVEL-ONE! SWING BATTER, BATTER, SWING!Level-One swings around and nails the attacker he took the bat from right across the face! The other one wants no part of Level-One one and one and scramble off! The other attackers who weren't seriously harmed also make the wise decision of crawling over the top of the crowd barriers and rising their white flags.
Harvey: Level-One has just spared Biggs. I can't believe it.Level-One tosses the bat aside and elects to coldly boot Biggs right across the skull instead before retrieving the billion dollar briefcase inside the ring and then walking back over to Biggs who's downed outside of it.
Level-One: Biggs, it's time I take control now. For the past month, you've made me hide out. For the past month, you've made me endure things a human being should never have to endure. For the past month, you kept me from doing what I love to do the most and at Rasslemania; I will repay you for it all.Level-One reaches into his pocket and pulls out a pair of handcuffs. He attaches it to Bigg's wrist and then links it to the billion dollar brief case.
Biggs realizes what has happened but it's too late.
Level-One: You want it? You can have it. At Rasslemania, it'll be me versus you in a hell in cell match... but Rasslemania is still a few weeks away and now it's up to you to ensure you survive long enough to get there, b*tch.Biggs: You're on!Harvey: WHAT!? I can't believe this! It's going to be Level-One Vs. Biggs in a Hell in the Cell match in Toronto! Chase: There is no way Biggs is going to make it to Rasslemania with that briefcase on his person... not in a place like Toronto, Level-One's hometown!Level-One smiles as he steps aside and looks up at the ramp. That's when we see General Manger Johnny Rebel step out from the back with an entire security team backing him up.
Harvey: Uh, oh.Chase: Johnny Rebel looks like he means business!The smile fades from Level-One's face as the security team steps between him and Biggs leaving Johnny Rebel and Biggs alone.
Harvey: What the hell is going on here!Johnny Rebel proceeds to mount Biggs and beat the living snot out of him! Shot after shot, Biggs is opened up by hard right hands to the face as blood begins to leak from his face! Johnny then follows it up this time stomping on Biggs! The fans can hardly contain themselves!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHarvey: Johnny Rebel is out of line here! He is the general manager of Overdrive, he needs to be removed for his post for doing this!Chase: It looks like he wants the briefcase and he's willing to screw them both over to get it.Johnny Rebel: I always wanted to main event Rasslemania and now I will finally get the chance! Terry Marvin Vs. CJ Gates... vs Johnny Rebel!Johnny Rebel proudly grabs hold of the billion dollar briefcase and begins to drag the bloodied Biggs up the ramp by his wrist! The crowd can't believe it.
Harvey: Johnny Rebel is a man possessed! All along he wanted this breif case for himself and he found the opportunity to take it tonight!Chase: Johnny Rebel will be your new undisputed champion at Rasslemania, you can bank on it! Suddenly, President Jeff pops up onto the APW tron. The crowd gives a HUGE pop!
President Jeff: Hello, Johnny Rebel. I don't know exactly what you're trying to do here but I can promise you that you will not get away with it any longer. The APW has launched investigations into your practices here in the APW after multiple complaints and in the specific case of the billion dollar briefcase have proof that you specifically added the 24/7 clause so you could main event Rasslemania yourself. This is clearly a conflict of interest and the APW will not stand by it.Johnny Rebel: You can't do this!President Jeff: Johnny Rebel... you're fired!The APW crowd explodes with cheers.
Harvey: Wow, Johnny Rebel was behind it all and now he just got shit canned for his involvement!Chase: No, it was Biggs! We all know it was Biggs!The APW security team all talk amongst themselves and decide step aside allowing Level-One free path to the disgraced former general manager. Johnny Rebel see's this and tries to pick up Biggs instead but trips and the both fall onto the ramp.
Harvey: Johnny Rebel is in trouble now!Chase: This is all kinds of crazy!Johnny Rebel on both knees tries to plea with Level-One; reminding him about all the good times they had together with the Sindicate. Level-One seems receptive but Johnny Rebel tries to go for a low blow, which is blocked. The crowd gasps in horror as Johnny Rebel's eye balls expand wide.
Johnny Rebel: ... please?Level-One kicks Johnny Rebel square in the chest sending him off the ramp and onto the tables and electricity below causing a huge explosion to erupt! Panic and chaos ensues as the paramedic team quickly rushes through the backstage corridor to tend to the situation.
Harvey: Johnny Rebel may have just sustained some serious injuries after that.Chase: Forget about Johnny Rebel... look at Biggs!The bloodied Biggs slowly makes it back to his feet as Level-One and Biggs go face to face, yet again.
Level-One: I still don't believe it. You still had something to do with it. You still are the one that put that bounty over my head!Biggs: Lester, I can prove it.Level-One grins as he looks at the bloodied Biggs with disgust.
Level-One: Then prove it....
Biggs NAILS Level-One across the face with the briefcase knocking him out cold as the crowd ERUPTS with cheers!
Harvey: Biggs just knocked Level-One out cold!Chase: He's guilty! Guilty has charged!Biggs shuffles through Level-One's pocket, retreivies the key to the hand cuffs and frees himself of the briefcase. He stares at it for a few seconds before dropping it beside his downed body.
Harvey: There we go! Biggs just GAVE Level-One back his briefcase! He never had anything to do with it all along.Chase: Wow.
BIGGS,
BIGGS,
BIGGS!Biggs: See you at Rasslemania, Lester.The bloodied Biggs slowly backs away from his unconscious rival to the cheers of the crowd as the scene comes to a close.
