Nikita: Is this thing on? I have just returned from the Nation's Capital ... Tisk Tisk ... such Security! No wonder you were losing the Cold War.
Bishop: And speaking of Cold, we haven't seen you wrestle in how long Ms. Marx?
Nikita: Finally, the GDWA has recognized my talents, and what do I get from the press? YES it is true that I have not been wrestling up to my potential. Fortunately, Uncle Bob would never accept anything less than my best from me. After months of training, working out, and... Odd Jobs, I am more ready than ever. Don't you think Sam Darling?
Mutt: Uh-hun, .... yeah.
Bob: WE have been preparing of sometime, now the GDWA is giving Nikita the chance to face one of the toughest wrestler in this Federation. Not only that, but it will force Daisy Buzzingfly to face Nikita at Founder's Day in a unification match. To Bring About the Day of the EASTERN Heritage Title!
Nikita: Darling! Finally, I will be given my chance to wrestle against a top caliber athlete. But who will it be? The 'Wild Woman' Radhi Ananda? Facing her for the belt is like wrestling a wild animal who fights by in-stink. A Dangerous proposition yes? So as part of my training, I have been wrestling Siberian Black Bears back home. I will be taking my times, but slowly I will bury you.
Nikita: Then there is Sierra Brown, Ms. Jack Johnson? Really, I hate to see a wrestler like yourself so confused have watched you ... how do you say? ...Evolve? ...as an opponent. I know who you are, Do You? You are smart and violent opponent, not unlike myself. But you have been misled, remember Muhammed Ali learned the truth - will you? This is the opportunity of a lifetime, but who are you really fighting Darling?
Bob: But this is not enough for our fans around the world, they demand MORE than just a wrestling match. Tonight, in order to make sure they get their money’s worth - We are making a very special announcement. We have asked for, AND both opponents have agreed to add a special stipulation. The second match of the night will be a “Red Towel “Match, a contest which can only be won when one of the managers throws in the Red Towel. No DQ, No submission, No pinfall.
Nikita: Now THAT is what I call a Theater of Pain! What to do think Sam? Would you like to see my win the Eastern Heritage title tonight?
Bob: Time for that AFTER your match 'La Femme' Nikita, WE have a match to prepare for...
(Nikita stands up and gives Sam a kiss on the cheek before walking backstage with Uncle Bob.)
Mutt: Woah. A towel match?
Bishop: I'm sure Radhi would accept, she's crazy. I don't know if Dalbello Rage would allow Sierra Browne to accept.
Mutt: Well, to the match at hand. Duran and Sarah meet for the second time. I don't think Sarah will hit any Diamond Drills tonight. Duran isn't about to submit, and I think she'll soften up that arm before Sarah can hit the Ultima Elbow.
Bishop: You've also got to figure that Duran has to protect that bad back. She needs 2 weeks just to get it back in wrestling shape, but she's forgoing any rest to continue in the tourney.
Mutt: Sudden death time! No return match ups. The winner faces the Western Heritage champ Saturday, the loser goes home. Now, you tell me the Syndicate and Jennifer Grier won't be psyched for this one.
Sarah Summers vs. Micki Duran
Spud: Wrestling fans, our next contest is a Quarterfinal match up in the second bracket of the Demonica Endurance Challenge tournament. It is scheduled for one fall with a 15 minute time limit.
(The crowd pops as Big Wreck's 'That Song' starts up.)
Spud: Accompanied to the ringside by 'Jumping' Jennifer Grier! Hailing from Tampa, Florida. She is 6 feet 2 inches, 201 pounds, here is 'Ultima' Sarah Summers!!
(The crowd cheers on as Sarah Summers strides through the entrance. Sarah talks into a camera as follows her down the aisle. Though her words are drowned out by the crowd, her demeanor and body gestures convey her hate for her opponent and The Syndicate as a whole. Sarah is dressed in her traditional sleeveless red bodysuit with a black tiger-stripe print, matching striped wristbands; black padded boots and kneepads complete the garb, and her shoulder length auburn hair is tied back in a ponytail.)
Bishop: This is one of the most eagerly anticipated match ups in the entire tourney. Duran vs. Summers II. And one has to wonder if there is any way either of these ladies can lose.
Mutt: Look, Duran is hurt. The wrestling world knows that...but you saw her shenanigans earlier tonight. The Legend is as serious as she's ever been in Grand Dragon. Sarah has to be up and ready to rumble tonight.
(Ultima enters the ring and walks to the middle where she turns to the crowd and offers a quick muscle pose, slapping her biceps and yelling out to the crowd.)
Bishop: And we're getting ready to hear from the Kingpin. He's had some disparaging remarks to make regarding the "lack of feminity" of Sarah Summers.
Mutt: Well she is kinda...I mean...she makes Chyna look good.
Spud: And now, introducing the international manager of champions.... the Kingpin!
(Fans all boo as the Kingpin walks down the aisle, grabs a mic and gets in the ring.)
Kingpin: (pointing at Sarah) (Austin Powers' voice) That's no wrestler, that's a MAN, baby!
(The phat bass lick of "Killing in the Name of" by Rage Against the Machine plays, and the crowd's reaction is mixed to say the least. Half the fans are raining down deafening boos, while half chant "Micki! Micki!" and hold up signs like "The Legend Lives!" and "Like Mick, If I Could Be Like Mick")
Bishop: Sarah Summers walking off to leave the ring, no, wait! Grier tossing her a chair?
Kingpin: Hey everybody! It's the next cruiserweight champion...!
(MAJOR pop as the Kingpin goes to turn around...)
Bishop: C H A I R S H O T!
(FANS ALL CHEERING AS SARAH SUMMERS *CRACKS* the Kingpin repeatedly.)
Mutt: The Kingpin doubling back, and Sarah with *another* Chairshot to the head!! Sarah's not relenting!
(Micki Duran comes hustling down the aisle wearing a green sports bra, green hot pants, green boots, green wrist tape, and green motorcycle gloves with the fingers cut out. Andrea Chandler sprints past her and heads barreling toward the ring wearing a black pair of Daisy Dukes, a black halter top, a black leather jacket and sunglasses. Arena security march slowly behind them.)
Bishop: The Kingpin sits in the near corner as Andrea storms the ring, and Sarah hops to the outside beside Jennifer Grier.
(Fans all chanting: >U< >U< >U< >U< >U< >U< >U< >U< >U< >U<)
Mutt: Sarah never said a word about the Kingpin. She just up and popped him...
Bishop: Duran in the ring checking on the big man, and he's affirming that he's okay. Duran is outraged, and Grier simply pointing to the Legend and now spitting.
Mutt: And Andrea Chandler still in the ring, ready to fight! She's as pumped as I've ever seen her.
(Fans begin to boo as the referee ushers Andrea Chandler out of the ring. Ringsiders chant: "Let-them-Fight" "Let-them-Fight")
Mutt: Summers climbing up the ringsteps as Duran screams over at her. Right now, Sarah with the psychological advantage.
Bishop: You can't talk about a woman as "manly" and expect her to stand by and take it. Brazen arrogance on the part of the SYN.
(Fans all whistling and cheering as Sarah Summers enters the ring, and the ref keeps the two separated.)
Mutt: That stare down could melt ice. Sarah nodding as Duran grits her teeth. She's completely lost her cool. Sarah better be careful, she may have awakened a sleeping giantess.
Bishop: Security has left ringside, and the Kingpin out on the floor shaking loose the cobwebs. As big and strong as the Kingpin is, Sarah is a woman over 200 pounds who completely took him by surprise.
(Sarah leads chants of: Micki Sucks! Micki Sucks! Micki Sucks!)
Bishop: The ref going over the rules, and now waring all the wrestlers on the outside. And now the Kingpin calling over the seething Micki Duran.
Mutt: Very smart of him. Duran sitting in the near corner as he rises up and massages her shoulders and whispers in her ear. Hey, The Kingpin can take care of himself. He's telling Micki to get back into that chess game.
(Fans all chanting: Micki Sucks! Micki Sucks! Micki Sucks! )
Bishop: Duran nodding and moving back into the ring...and here we go.
*Ding*Ding*Ding*Ding*
(Fans all rise and are already roaring as both women encircle one another.)
Bishop: Duran calling Sarah in, but Sarah hesitant to lock up. Both women waiting on the other. Now a lock up...no...Duran slaps her!
(Fans all boo as Micki Duran backs into the near ropes and dips half way out to the ring apron.)
Mutt: Duran re-entering the ring, and Sarah just nodding. She ain't grinning anymore.
Bishop: Sarah ready to tie up, but still not racing in. Duran raising her hands for a lock up...and now walks off and dips through the ropes to the outside.
(Fans continue to boo as Duran confers with the Kingpin and Andrea Chandler.)
Mutt: Big rookie mistake by Sarah Summers. Don't let Duran break up the momentum. Get after her. Sarah in the ring, frowning now, as she walks over to Grier and they converse.
Ref: 1...................................2..............3..........
Bishop: Sarah nodding and getting some words of inspiration from her friend Jen Grier. The Chairwoman was completely dominated by Micki Duran last time out. Of all the competitor's in the tournament, only Daisy Butterfly and Sally McClane have wrestled
