RoP presents Meltdown
06/27/2010
Coyote Ugly Saloon
San Antonio, TX
Attendance: 400
We then go live to a shot of Coyote Ugly Saloon with fans gathered round the ring in a standing manner and some people sitting at a bar as well. Suddenly, we go to the announce table.
SP: Folks, welcome to Meltdown and we’re coming to you live from San Antonio, Texas. It’s the home to the Alamo and tonight it’s playing host to Ring of Pride and what a show we have lined up for you all here tonight.
AS: We have several stars in Eric Cobretti, Nightkrow and Cade Malibu that are making their debuts here…..personally, none of them seem enough to write home about but you never know!
SP: Aye, you’ll also see the hand picked, chosen one of Simon Sensation, Ace Andrews lock up with Paige. Ace has a Texas Television title match coming up at the next Out for Blood supershow, but he has to get past Paige to keep his momentum rolling here.
AS: Newcomers Eric Hancock and Tommy McFarlane will also clash in the ring. Folks, after what we saw last week, it’s a safe bet that this match could be the sleeper of the night…….and by that, I mean that I’ll probably be sleeping during it! Hahahaha!
SP: Supreme Machine will also take on “The Real Deal” Lucas Peek. We saw these two clash last week, but what happened…..well, it may cause their bad blood to spill over to tonight.
AS: We’ll also see “Ballistic” Bryan Deas team with Shadow to take on The Superdorks. Mark and Marc have been cruising through the tag ranks and with the Tag Team titles finding new homes at the next supershow, those two definitely have to have their sights set on the gold……but Shadow has his target aimed at Deas and with a House of Carnage match made between them for the supershow, this tag match could get ugly and FAST!
SP: The Texas Television title will also be on the line. Arianna Millar beat out a bunch of other stars to get this shot in a First Blood Battle Royal at Out for Blood: King of the Mountain and tonight, she cashes in her shot. It’ll be interesting to see what happens as she takes on the champion, Shawna Rose in a Bar Room Brawl where I understand anything and everything will be legal.
AS: When is anything illegal here in RoP? The main event will be a douzy……a fatal four way match pitting the Southwestern Heavyweight Champ Ronin against Alexander McIntyre, Dillon D’Angelo and the returning Anilya! From what I understand, if Ronin gets pinned, whoever gets the win would pretty much be in line for a title shot, so you have to imagine that the man will be a target here tonight.
SP: Definitely…….and with that, let’s send it up to Traci for our opening match!
TL: The following contest is a triple threat match! Introducing first……already in the ring……Eric “The Cobra” Cobretti!
SP: The Cobra is making his first appearance here. I’ve heard good things about him, we’ll see if he lives up to the hype!
TL: And introducing his opponents, first on his way to the ring Cade Malibu!
“California Love” starts to play as Cade strolls out from the back and swaggers to the ring with a cocky demeanor. He rolls into the ring to boos from the fans, who don’t seem to like him already.
AS: Cade seems well……like a man modeled after myself, if I may say so!
TL: And their opponent………..Nightkrow!
“Fight Fire With Fire” starts to play as Nightkrow stalks down to the ring from the back to cheers from the fans. He nears the ring and eyes Cade and Eric in it before climbing up the stairs.
SP: Nightkrow seems to be impressive…..I’ve heard some good things about him too but we’ll see.
The bell rings and all three go nose to nose in the middle of the ring before Cade and Cobretti decide to team up on Nightkrow. They both wail away on him before they both whip him into the ropes and telegraph a double back body drop. They look up to see that Nightkrow had stopped himself near the ropes. Krow charges at them and takes them down with a double clothesline. Cobretti gets up and Nightkrow nails an atomic drop on him, causing him to stumble against the ropes. Krow waits for Cade to get up before picking him up and nailing a spine buster on him. Cobretti comes at Nightkrow, who ducks a clothesline by him and nails a dropkick that sends him through the ropes to the bar floor. Cade is getting up and as he does so, Krow grabs him and nails his stunner called The Krow’s Bite that draws a pop from the crowd and lays out Malibu. Krow makes the cover. One…….Two……..Three!
TL: Here is your winner, NIGHTKROW!
SP: That had to be the shortest match in RoP history, Artie!
AS: I think it was! Holy shit! Nightkrow is here in Ring of Pride and he’s not one to be fucked with……plus I don’t think he gets paid by the hour!
With that, we go to an RoP website commercial.
The screen crackles for a few seconds, and then a Public Warning screen pops up, and the voiceover man kicks in.

The scene then fades in on a shot of Ace Andrews, standing on some grass with a leash in his hand.
AA-“Sorry for interrupting your scheduled Meltdown, but I have an important lesson for everyone today. So pay attention, as I teach you how to train your bitches.”
The shot then pans to show Ace has a random blonde woman on her hands and knees beside him, the collar around her neck. Ace gives it a quick yank and she barks at the camera.
AA-“There is many ways to train bitches, but most will only respond to firm discipline. Also, always remember you should reward them for good behaviour. For instance.”
Ace pulls a ball from his pocket and then throws it into the distance.
AA-“Fetch, bitch.”
The woman glares up at Ace, but he raises his hand quickly, and she starts to climb to her feet, but Ace yanks the leash and she stumbles back down.
AA-“On your knees like a good dog. You need to earn the right to walk.”
She starts to run off on her hands and knees, and a few minutes later she returns with the ball in her mouth. Ace kneels down, taking the ball from her mouth. He then rubs behind her ear, and with a completely over-the-top smile starts to compliment her.
AA-“Oh whose a good girl? Whose a good girl. You are, yes you are. Yes. You. Are.”
Ace then stands up, and looks at the camera with a smile again.
AA-“Now, most people seem confused. Just how do you reward your bitch? Well, there is a few ways. You could give her a good bone, but this is PG, so I can’t do that. You could allow her some time at the mall, but that should only be for once they’ve truly done something really really good. No, the easy way to train your bitch, is to reward her with the one thing all bitches want. Money.”
Ace then pulls a thick wad of cash out of his pocket, and we see the woman’s eyes light up. Ace then peels off a few notes and drops them on the ground, rubbing them into the dirt with his boot.
AA-“Fetch that bitch.”
Ace then looks back into the camera, walking forward a few paces while smiling.
AA-“I hope you’ve all enjoyed this lesson, and remember too many bitches never spoil the broth if they want dinner.”
Ace then walks off and the scene fades out on the woman scrubbing through the dirt for the money.
TL: The following match is a one on one contest, scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, on her way to the ring, Paige!
“Beautiful and Strange” starts to play as Paige makes her way down to the ring to boos from the fans. She makes her way into the ring and quickly retreats to her corner.
SP: Paige made her debut two weeks ago against Tommy Wilson and Eric Hancock, but tonight well……she faces a man that’s been VERY outspoken on a lot of things as of late.
AS: If what he’s been saying don’t fire Paige up, I dunno what will!
The entire arena goes to black, and the titan tron flickers into life with some static before the words “chosen one“ are heard coming from a deep voice. As the static starts getting clear it starts to show four Ace cards between flashes of static. After a few seconds the static leaves to have just an image of the Four Ace cards. After a few seconds the Ace cards turn sideways and fly towards the camera and the text 'YOU'RE GONNA GET ACED!' flashes on and off, going faster and faster until finally some pyro explodes and the PA System kicks in.
Rollin' the dice
Never thinkin' twice
A single golden light illuminates the stage, and from the back out struts Ace Andrews! Ace is dressed in a simple pair of long black tights, with two Ace cards on ace leg, and ‘THE ACE’ written on the trunk in big white letters. He is also wearing a singlet, with a picture of his face on the front, and the back has the words YOU HAVE JUST BEEN ACED! He pauses at the top of the ramp, holding both arms out wide, and then turning his back to the crowd before turning to face them again. He starts to stroll down the ramp, looking out at one side of the crowd, then the other as he paces leisurely to the ring.
SP: This man has proven himself to be nothing short of a sexist pig as of late!
AS: Sexist? He’s just been speaking the truth, Stu! It’s like saying that England sucks at soccer this year in the World Cup, you know it’s like fucking gospel!
The bell rings and Ace and Paige lock up. Ace shoves her back and nails a few kicks to her before he nails some shots to her skull. She stumbles back into a corner and Ace stays on her, nailing some chops to her chest before he nails a rather big, impact hip toss. He does a little strut before he charges at Paige and grabs the back of her head, bringing it forward as he falls down, driving her face first into the mat. She rolls over to the ropes and starts to pull herself up slowly. Ace charges in toward her, but she raises a foot and catches him right in the jaw. Ace stumbles back and comes back at her and Paige catches him in the jaw again. She drops down and slides to the outside of the ring now. Ace gets his bearings and goes after her, but Paige has grabbed a kendo stick from under the ring and starts blistering Ace with a bunch of shots to the stomach and back, followed by one in the head that shatters the stick and causes Ace to fall back.
SP: I wonder what Ace thinks of women now, the sexist bastard?
AS: She needed a weapon to take control of the match, Stu! It’s not right!
Paige rolls Ace back into the ring and grabs a chair from ringside. As Ace gets up on his knees, she throws the chair at him. He catches it, but she dropkicks it back into his face. He seems to be laid out as she gets down and makes a cover. One……Two! Ace gets a shoulder up. Paige pulls him right back up and brings him down with a DDT. Ace is once again laid out as Paige ascends a nearby turnbuckle and positions herself on the top rope. When she seems about ready to fly off, Ace takes the chair and throws it at her, causing her to lose her footing and fall from the top rope. Ace jumps on her with a series of kicks. The referee tries to pry him away so he can check on Paige, but Ace keeps on kicking at her. Finally Ace backs up, allowing Paige to get up, then he nails her with a knee to the gut. She doubles over and stumbles into the middle of the ring as Ace slaps her, audibly calling her a ‘dumb woman’ as slaps her several times and then tells her that he’s gonna make her “his bitch”. Paige nails a right, then a left on Ace, sending him reeling into the ropes. Ace has his back against the ropes as Paige comes charging in. Ace goes to back body drop her over the ropes, but she lands on the apron and he doesn’t seem to notice.
SP: This man is just……he’s so ignorant. How can he say that stuff about women, how?
AS: He opens his mouth, that’s how……of course, I hope he keeps it closed because things ain’t looking too well for him right now…….
Paige runs over into a corner and climbs to the top. As Ace turns, she flies off with a cross body that takes him down. Ace gets up and gets an arm drag from her. He gets back up and gets a hip toss, followed by a dropkick to the middle of his back for his troubles. He slowly makes it and Paige charges and nails a head scissors takedown. The crowd is firmly behind her as she waits for Ace to get up, then seems to be looking for a swinging neck breaker, but he rolls through it, keeps a hold of her arm, wrings it and pulls her into a massive clothesline. The crowd now boos as he climbs up into the middle rope and goes for a leg drop. Paige rolls out of the way and as Ace starts to get up, wraps her legs around his head and nails a DDT with it. Ace seems laid out as she makes the cover. One……Two…….NO!
SP: Ace with a kickout and I wonder how he feels about women now? Paige is taking the fight to him and I’m sure he felt this was only nothing more than a warmup for his coming title match with Shawna in a few weeks.
AS: She didn’t win yet, Stu. Don’t get ahead of yourself yet…..
Paige pulls Ace up and whips him into the ropes. She telegraphs a back body drop and he drops down to his back and nails a shot right to her jaw that sends her back. He goes for a super kick, but she ducks and nails a jawbreaker on him as he turns toward her. He stumbles back and she charges, but he leaps up and catches her with a dropkick right to her chest. She falls into the referee, knocking him down. Ace sees it and digs in his tights for something and gets a pair of brass knucks. Paige turns to face him and he hauls off to nail her with it, hiding the knucks as the ref slowly comes to and sees that Ace is pinning her. One…….Two……..Three!
TL; Here is your winner, ACE ANDREWS!
SP: What in the hell was that?
AS: It was him beating a woman!
SP; He CHEATED! He used a foreign object! That’s not a clean win! What happened to this macho attitude of his?
AS: Clean…..dirty……..a win’s a win!
TL: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Derry, Northern Ireland…….Tommy McFarlane!
“I’m Not Jesus” hits as Tommy makes his way into the entrance aisle to boos. He makes his way slowly to the ring, then climbs up on the apron and looks around at the bar and the people in attendance.
SP: One half of Ireland’s Most Wanted, Tommy made his debut on the last Meltdown and with Alexander McIntyre, suffered a heart breaking loss.
AS: Well, he’s come out of retirement to be here and after that last match…..I think there may be some rust somewhere. Of course, if I was Valerie Lamb’s father, I’d be constantly off my game by thinking about the mistakes I made…..namely her, too.
TL: And his opponent, from Tampa, Florida and being accompanied to the ring by “Coach” Hank Fitzgerald…….”The H-Bomb” Eric Hancock!
“Invincible” hits over the arena PA and Eric Hancock steps out into the arena followed shortly by his coach, Hank Fitzgerald, and a small team of trainers. Hancock wears a hoodie pulled over his head as he slowly paces to the ring, loosening up along the way. At ringside, Hancock receives a few final words of encouragement and advice from his trainers and coach and removes his sweatshirt, handing it off to the trainers before they head to the back. After his final prep, Hancock slides into the ring and bounces the ropes, getting a feeling for his environment. Eric Hancock settles into his corner and awaits the start of the match.
SP: Awesome, powerful and one hell of a right hand……that’s all ways I think you could describe this combatant right here, Eric Hancock.
AS: He’s a bad ass, Stu. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, I would NOT want to meet this dude in a dark alley. Why do you think I’m staying on his good side here? My face is too pretty to get punched in…….
The bell rings and Tommy and Eric circle each other before they lock up in the middle of the ring and jockey for position. Eric gets Tommy in he corner and nails a shoulder thrust to his midsection, but as he goes in for a second, Tommy raises his legs and springs off of Eric’s back to land on his feet behind Hancock. Eric turns around and Tommy nails some BIG European uppercuts, then grabs Eric by the head and nails a side headlock takedown. He seems to be trying to squeeze Eric’s head like a grape as he applies as much pressure as possible to it. The crowd claps, firmly behind Eric and trying to will him up as he slowly gets to his knees, then a foot, then both feet and then takes Tommy back with a belly to back suplex. Tommy gets up and Eric charges with a big side kick attempt, but Tommy ducks, gets behind Eric, spins him around and plants him with a DDT. Eric starts to get up, but Tommy nails some kicks to his face as he gets to his knees. Tommy pulls Eric up to his feet and then launches him into the ropes. He catches him with a huge hip toss that causes Eric to land in a sitting position. Tommy springs off the ropes and looks for a stiff kick to the jaw on Hancock, but Eric bends back to get out of the way. Eric quickly gets up, grabs Tommy from behind and nails a huge release German suplex that causes Tommy to remain in a folded state. Eric sees this and leaps on him for a cover. One……!
SP: Just a one count for Eric and that was a great exchange by both men, but if someone wants to take the win here, they need to try and establish some lengthy offense.
AS: They’re trying, Stu! Don’t you think that’s what they’ve been attempting to do? But as one gets going, the other is there to take the wind out of their sails!
Eric pulls Tommy up and nails a few strikes to the back of his head before he reels Tommy in and goes for a belly to belly suplex. But Tommy seems to block it at first, then head butts Eric, causing him to let go of his grip and stumble back. Tommy charges at him and gets his foot up for a bicycle kick that causes the crowd to go “oooooooooohhhhhh” and lays Eric out. He gets down for a cover. One……Two! Tommy glares at the referee as he pulls Eric to his feet and with Hancock looking dazed, pulls him into a corner and nails a leg sweep into the turnbuckle that causes the back of Eric’s head to connect with the second pad. The fans boo as it’s obvious that Tommy has found an opening to get and keep the offense in this match and is taking full advantage of it. With Eric down, he slaps him in the face a few times, then lifts him up and nails an atomic drop that sends Eric stumbling into the ropes. Tommy comes at him, looking for a roundhouse kick, but Eric ducks and seems to lay in wait as Tommy turns, then grabs him and lifts him up for a flap jack that causes Tommy to go face first into the mat. As Tommy is trying to get his bearings, Eric grabs his foot and locks in a grapevined ankle lock. Tommy screams in pain as he tries to crawl over to the ropes.
SP: Tommy is in a dire situation here. If he can’t make it to the ropes, he’s going to have to either tap or suffer some serious damage to his foot here.
AS: Eric has it locked in with a grapevine as well. Just a normal ankle lock can hurt like a bitch, but when it gets locked in like this, it’s ten times worse!
Eric keeps the hold locked in and twists Tommy’s foot around. Tommy screams as he tries to get to the ropes, but Eric tries to anchor them to the mat as much as possible. Finally, Tommy makes one last desperate lunge for the ropes as he gets within arm’s length and manages to snag the bottom rope. The referee forces Eric to break the hold. As Eric makes it to his feet, Tommy is on his knees by the ropes. Eric goes to grab him, but Tommy low blows him, which don’t seem to be within eye sight of the referee. Eric stumbles out into the middle of the ring and Tommy charges and takes down Eric with a hard spear, followed some mounted shots to the head. Finally, Tommy gets up and seems to be laying in wait for Eric to get to his feet. When Hancock does, Tommy boots him in the midsection, then lifts him up for a spinning power bomb, but Eric manages to flip himself around and land on his feet right in front of Tommy. He goes for a roundhouse kick of his own to the veteran, but Tommy ducks and when Eric spins around, Tommy lifts him up onto his shoulder like he’s going for a dominator, then flips him down as he falls onto his back real quickly and puts up two knees, causing Hancock’s back to go right into them. Eric kicks the mat as he appears to be out of it and Tommy rolls him over and goes for the cover. One……..Two…….NO!
SP: Close call, but Eric got his shoulder up in time. Don’t ask me how he did it, but he dug deep for that one!
AS: Tommy McFarlane is showing us some sick offensive moves here. I thought Eric would take control after that counter to the power bomb, but Tommy managed to take him right back down!
The crowd starts a “let’s go Eric” chant with a small, dueling “let’s go Tommy” chant right beside it. Tommy seems to be in disbelief that Eric kicked out, but pulls him up and then lifts him up and positions Eric’s head near his butt and his legs on his shoulder as he goes for a Luck O’ The Irish. Eric manages to get his legs free and falls on his feet behind Tommy. He spins him around and goes for The Detonator, but Tommy gouges his eyes and falls down in front of him. He nails some stiff kicks to Eric’s thighs and then lifts him up for another Rampant Lions, but this time, Eric grabs his head and plants Tommy down with a tornado DDT, using his own momentum against him. Tommy gets to his feet and turns, only to get lifted up for another Detonator, but again Tommy reverses this time by managing to crawl over Hancock and roll behind him. Hancock gets rolled up, but McFarlane don’t intend to get a pin that way. He has Hancock’s legs around his head as he lifts him up, spins and plants him with a Rampant Lions! He manages to stay on him for the cover! One………Two……..Three!
SP: He did it! McFarlane got his first singles win here in RoP, but my god……what a match! Hancock has nothing to be ashamed of here. These two put on a wrestling clinic!
AS: Eric gave him one hell of a fight……both laid it all on the line but in the end it was Tommy who got lucky and took an opening…..it’s as simple as that, Stu!
TL: Here is your winner, TOMMY MCFARLANE!

Ace is once again laid out as Paige ascends a nearby turnbuckle and positions herself on the top rope. When she seems about ready to fly off, Ace takes the chair and throws it at her, causing her to lose her footing and fall from the top rope. Ace jumps on her with a series of kicks. The referee tries to pry him away so he can check on Paige, but Ace keeps on kicking at her. Finally Ace backs up, allowing Paige to get up, then he nails her with a knee to the gut. She doubles over and stumbles into the middle of the ring as Ace slaps her, audibly calling her a ‘dumb woman’ as slaps her several times and then tells her that he’s gonna make her “his bitch”. Paige nails a right, then a left on Ace, sending him reeling into the ropes. Ace has his back against the ropes as Paige comes charging in. Ace goes to back body drop her over the ropes, but she lands on the apron and he doesn’t seem to notice.
SP: This man is just……he’s so ignorant. How can he say that stuff about women, how?
AS: He opens his mouth, that’s how……of course, I hope he keeps it closed because things ain’t looking too well for him right now…….
Paige runs over into a corner and climbs to the top. As Ace turns, she flies off with a cross body that takes him down. Ace gets up and gets an arm drag from her. He gets back up and gets a hip toss, followed by a dropkick to the middle of his back for his troubles. He slowly makes it and Paige charges and nails a head scissors takedown. The crowd is firmly behind her as she waits for Ace to get up, then seems to be looking for a swinging neck breaker, but he rolls through it, keeps a hold of her arm, wrings it and pulls her into a massive clothesline. The crowd now boos as he climbs up into the middle rope and goes for a leg drop. Paige rolls out of the way and as Ace starts to get up, wraps her legs around his head and nails a DDT with it. Ace seems laid out as she makes the cover. One……Two…….NO!
SP: Ace with a kickout and I wonder how he feels about women now? Paige is taking the fight to him and I’m sure he felt this was only nothing more than a warmup for his coming title match with Shawna in a few weeks.
AS: She didn’t win yet, Stu. Don’t get ahead of yourself yet…..
Paige pulls Ace up and whips him into the ropes. She telegraphs a back body drop and he drops down to his back and nails a shot right to her jaw that sends her back. He goes for a super kick, but she ducks and nails a jawbreaker on him as he turns toward her. He stumbles back and she charges, but he leaps up and catches her with a dropkick right to her chest. She falls into the referee, knocking him down. Ace sees it and digs in his tights for something and gets a pair of brass knucks. Paige turns to face him and he hauls off to nail her with it, hiding the knucks as the ref slowly comes to and sees that Ace is pinning her. One…….Two……..Three!
TL; Here is your winner, ACE ANDREWS!
SP: What in the hell was that?
AS: It was him beating a woman!
SP; He CHEATED! He used a foreign object! That’s not a clean win! What happened to this macho attitude of his?
AS: Clean…..dirty……..a win’s a win!
TL: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Derry, Northern Ireland…….Tommy McFarlane!
“I’m Not Jesus” hits as Tommy makes his way into the entrance aisle to boos. He makes his way slowly to the ring, then climbs up on the apron and looks around at the bar and the people in attendance.
SP: One half of Ireland’s Most Wanted, Tommy made his debut on the last Meltdown and with Alexander McIntyre, suffered a heart breaking loss.
AS: Well, he’s come out of retirement to be here and after that last match…..I think there may be some rust somewhere. Of course, if I was Valerie Lamb’s father, I’d be constantly off my game by thinking about the mistakes I made…..namely her, too.
TL: And his opponent, from Tampa, Florida and being accompanied to the ring by “Coach” Hank Fitzgerald…….”The H-Bomb” Eric Hancock!
“Invincible” hits over the arena PA and Eric Hancock steps out into the arena followed shortly by his coach, Hank Fitzgerald, and a small team of trainers. Hancock wears a hoodie pulled over his head as he slowly paces to the ring, loosening up along the way. At ringside, Hancock receives a few final words of encouragement and advice from his trainers and coach and removes his sweatshirt, handing it off to the trainers before they head to the back. After his final prep, Hancock slides into the ring and bounces the ropes, getting a feeling for his environment. Eric Hancock settles into his corner and awaits the start of the match.
SP: Awesome, powerful and one hell of a right hand……that’s all ways I think you could describe this combatant right here, Eric Hancock.
AS: He’s a bad ass, Stu. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, I would NOT want to meet this dude in a dark alley. Why do you think I’m staying on his good side here? My face is too pretty to get punched in…….
The bell rings and Tommy and Eric circle each other before they lock up in the middle of the ring and jockey for position. Eric gets Tommy in he corner and nails a shoulder thrust to his midsection, but as he goes in for a second, Tommy raises his legs and springs off of Eric’s back to land on his feet behind Hancock. Eric turns around and Tommy nails some BIG European uppercuts, then grabs Eric by the head and nails a side headlock takedown. He seems to be trying to squeeze Eric’s head like a grape as he applies as much pressure as possible to it. The crowd claps, firmly behind Eric and trying to will him up as he slowly gets to his knees, then a foot, then both feet and then takes Tommy back with a belly to back suplex. Tommy gets up and Eric charges with a big side kick attempt, but Tommy ducks, gets behind Eric, spins him around and plants him with a DDT. Eric starts to get up, but Tommy nails some kicks to his face as he gets to his knees. Tommy pulls Eric up to his feet and then launches him into the ropes. He catches him with a huge hip toss that causes Eric to land in a sitting position. Tommy springs off the ropes and looks for a stiff kick to the jaw on Hancock, but Eric bends back to get out of the way. Eric quickly gets up, grabs Tommy from behind and nails a huge release German suplex that causes Tommy to remain in a folded state. Eric sees this and leaps on him for a cover. One……!
SP: Just a one count for Eric and that was a great exchange by both men, but if someone wants to take the win here, they need to try and establish some lengthy offense.
AS: They’re trying, Stu! Don’t you think that’s what they’ve been attempting to do? But as one gets going, the other is there to take the wind out of their sails!
Eric pulls Tommy up and nails a few strikes to the back of his head before he reels Tommy in and goes for a belly to belly suplex. But Tommy seems to block it at first, then head butts Eric, causing him to let go of his grip and stumble back. Tommy charges at him and gets his foot up for a bicycle kick that causes the crowd to go “oooooooooohhhhhh” and lays Eric out. He gets down for a cover. One……Two! Tommy glares at the referee as he pulls Eric to his feet and with Hancock looking dazed, pulls him into a corner and nails a leg sweep into the turnbuckle that causes the back of Eric’s head to connect with the second pad. The fans boo as it’s obvious that Tommy has found an opening to get and keep the offense in this match and is taking full advantage of it. With Eric down, he slaps him in the face a few times, then lifts him up and nails an atomic drop that sends Eric stumbling into the ropes. Tommy comes at him, looking for a roundhouse kick, but Eric ducks and seems to lay in wait as Tommy turns, then grabs him and lifts him up for a flap jack that causes Tommy to go face first into the mat. As Tommy is trying to get his bearings, Eric grabs his foot and locks in a grapevined ankle lock. Tommy screams in pain as he tries to crawl over to the ropes.
SP: Tommy is in a dire situation here. If he can’t make it to the ropes, he’s going to have to either tap or suffer some serious damage to his foot here.
AS: Eric has it locked in with a grapevine as well. Just a normal ankle lock can hurt like a bitch, but when it gets locked in like this, it’s ten times worse!
Eric keeps the hold locked in and twists Tommy’s foot around. Tommy screams as he tries to get to the ropes, but Eric tries to anchor them to the mat as much as possible. Finally, Tommy makes one last desperate lunge for the ropes as he gets within arm’s length and manages to snag the bottom rope. The referee forces Eric to break the hold. As Eric makes it to his feet, Tommy is on his knees by the ropes. Eric goes to grab him, but Tommy low blows him, which don’t seem to be within eye sight of the referee. Eric stumbles out into the middle of the ring and Tommy charges and takes down Eric with a hard spear, followed some mounted shots to the head. Finally, Tommy gets up and seems to be laying in wait for Eric to get to his feet. When Hancock does, Tommy boots him in the midsection, then lifts him up for a spinning power bomb, but Eric manages to flip himself around and land on his feet right in front of Tommy. He goes for a roundhouse kick of his own to the veteran, but Tommy ducks and when Eric spins around, Tommy lifts him up onto his shoulder like he’s going for a dominator, then flips him down as he falls onto his back real quickly and puts up two knees, causing Hancock’s back to go right into them. Eric kicks the mat as he appears to be out of it and Tommy rolls him over and goes for the cover. One……..Two…….NO!
SP: Close call, but Eric got his shoulder up in time. Don’t ask me how he did it, but he dug deep for that one!
AS: Tommy McFarlane is showing us some sick offensive moves here. I thought Eric would take control after that counter to the power bomb, but Tommy managed to take him right back down!
The crowd starts a “let’s go Eric” chant with a small, dueling “let’s go Tommy” chant right beside it. Tommy seems to be in disbelief that Eric kicked out, but pulls him up and then lifts him up and positions Eric’s head near his butt and his legs on his shoulder as he goes for a Luck O’ The Irish. Eric manages to get his legs free and falls on his feet behind Tommy. He spins him around and goes for The Detonator, but Tommy gouges his eyes and falls down in front of him. He nails some stiff kicks to Eric’s thighs and then lifts him up for another Rampant Lions, but this time, Eric grabs his head and plants Tommy down with a tornado DDT, using his own momentum against him. Tommy gets to his feet and turns, only to get lifted up for another Detonator, but again Tommy reverses this time by managing to crawl over Hancock and roll behind him. Hancock gets rolled up, but McFarlane don’t intend to get a pin that way. He has Hancock’s legs around his head as he lifts him up, spins and plants him with a Rampant Lions! He manages to stay on him for the cover! One………Two……..Three!
SP: He did it! McFarlane got his first singles win here in RoP, but my god……what a match! Hancock has nothing to be ashamed of here. These two put on a wrestling clinic!
AS: Eric gave him one hell of a fight……both laid it all on the line but in the end it was Tommy who got lucky and took an opening…..it’s as simple as that, Stu!
TL: Here is your winner, TOMMY MCFARLANE!
