The HAW Theme played, and pyro erupted
throughout the arena as the audience was excited for the show to
begin
Edward Findleton: Welcome everyone to
HAW! We are in Portland, Oregon for End of the Trail! It's a new
year, but it's the conclusion to this season of HAW!
THE Casey Gains: We'll see friends who
became enemies fight with Fun Fight Machine and Calhoun, in addition
to every single title being on the line tonight. Kitty Kayleen,
Brunswick and Crash, The Musical Lifeguard Chairs and The
Trans-Atlantic Family!
Edward Findleton: And of course, our
opening match, The Behemoth winning a fan vote to challenge The
Insomniac, Kenneth Cobb for the National Championship!
The HAW theme was cut off by the
explosion of the Behemoth's pyro, as he came out with Rat, as Rat
seemed to be giving a pep talk to The Behemoth the whole way down to
the ring. The Behemoth entered the ring and stared down at the
entrance ramp, awaiting Kenneth Cobb. The Insomniac's music started
with the ticking clock, and out came the HAW National Champion.
THE Casey Gains: The Insomniac has had
an interesting strategy these past few weeks to prepare for this
match. For his sake, I hope it's helped.
Cobb slid into the ring, and handed the
HAW National Championship to Referee Brenda Moses. As she was giving
the title to the outside time keeper, Cobb jumped The Behemoth and
started attacking him.
Edward Findleton: The Insomniac wasting
no time attacking The Behemoth!
Cobb kept punching at The Behemoth's
head, who was doing his best to guard from the blows but was backed
up into the corner. Brenda Moses forced Cobb to back away or risk a
DQ, and he let up. Once The Behemoth was steady, Cobb ran towards
Behemoth and started attacking again. The Behemoth seemed surprised
again by the constant attacks, eventually dropping to a knee after a
solid forearm hit him in the jaw. Cobb grabbed The Behemoth's head
and hit a DDT, then quickly went for a cover. Brenda Moses counted to
two, but the Behemoth kicked out.
Cobb didn't waste a second after the
kick out, and climbed on top of The Behemoth and started elbowing his
forehead. The constant elbows busted The Behemoth's head open, but
Cobb paid no attention to the blood. Finally, the Behemoth reached up
and grabbed Cobb by the throat, squeezing. Cobb stared to punch the
Behemoth's arm, but he would not let go of the grip. Cobb was forced
to get off of The Behemoth, as he tried to break away from the grip
to breathe. The Behemoth held on, and Cobb started to weaken,
allowing The Behemoth to stand up. He lifted up Cobb onto his
shoulders, and hit a running power slam.
Cobb was hurt, and The Behemoth wiped
his forehead with his hands, finally seeing the blood. The Behemoth
smeared the blood across the front of The Insomniac's shirt, then
picked him up by the collar. The Behemoth positioned him and
delivered a powerful pump handle slam that shook the ring. Cobb
didn't move, just stared up at the arena's ceiling in a daze. The
Behemoth grabbed Cobb again, ripping his shirt off in the process of
man handling him and picking him up into the air. The Behemoth raised
him high in the air, and hit a gorilla press slam.
Edward Findleton: And The Behemoth is
destroying The Insomniac!
The Behemoth looked down at Kenneth
Cobb, who was lying on the ground, his chest heaving with each
breath. The Behemoth grabbed him more time and tucked his head
between his legs.
THE Casey Gains: I think it's Powerbomb
Shoulder Breaker time!
The Behemoth lifted Cobb into powerbomb
position, but suddenly started to struggle as The Insomniac grasped
his legs around The Behemoth's neck, squeezing. The Behemoth tried
punching the legs of The Insomniac but to no avail, then tried to
deliver the Shoulder Breaker, but couldn't muster the strength as The
Behemoth fell to a knee. Cobb quickly released his legs, but jumped
onto The Behemoth's back and locked in the Sleeper Hold.
The Behemoth stood up again, and tried
to reverse into the turnbuckle, bashing The Insomniac's back off it
and crushing him with his weight. The Insomniac still hold on, as The
Behemoth stumbled to the other side of the ring. He tried again to
crush The Insomniac with his body, but still The Insomniac held on.
The Behemoth fell to his knees, and a
couple of seconds later, collapsed onto the ground. Brenda Moses
checked his arm, as it fell once, then twice. She raised The
Behemoth's arm for a third time, and it stayed up in the air for a
few seconds, before falling to the mat. Brenda Moses called for the
bell, and The Insomniac defeated The Behemoth.
Edward Findleton: He took a beating,
but The Insomniac defends his National Championship!
THE Casey Gains: That match could have
gone either way with the violence we saw!
The Insomniac took the National
Championship and held the title up. His eyes looked ready to shut and
he rested his head on the ropes, before he seemed to jolt up and
slapped himself in the face. The Insomniac left the ring and went up
the ramp, pleased with his victory.
For the next match, James Calhoun's theme
music played, and he walked out, looking determined. Fun Fight Machine came out next, looking just as serious. Referee Dennis
Thompson patted down both men, and called for the bell.
Calhoun walked to the center of the
ring motioned for Fun Fight Machine to come closer. Fun Fight Machine
reluctantly walked up to James Calhoun and stared him down. Calhoun
stared back, saying nothing, then spit right in Fun Fight Machine's
face. Fun looked down at the ground, trying to control his emotions,
but finally screamed in anger and punched Calhoun in the head. Fun
Fight Machine started an offensive flurry that Calhoun seemed
surprised by, as Fun Fight Machine used his speed and agility to keep
striking Calhoun from every angle. Calhoun would run and deliver
shoulder blocks, would whip Calhoun and hit clotheslines, and spring
board off the ropes right into Calhoun.
Calhoun was down, and Fun Fight Machine
tried for a pin, but only got two. As Fun was getting to his feet,
Calhoun tripped up Fun Fight Machine by grabbing his boot. Calhoun
tried to untie Fun's laces, but Fun kicked him away. Fun tried to get
up, but Calhoun grabbed one of the looser laces, causing Fun Fight
Machine to stumble. Fun Fight Machine turned back towards Calhoun, he
poked Fun Fight Machine right in the eye, causing him to grab his eye
and move to the corner.
Referee Dennis Thompson yelled at
Calhoun, then went to check on Fun Fight Machine. Calhoun recovered
enough and while Thompson was checking on Fun Fight Machine, Calhoun
threw Thompson to the side and started hitting Fun Fight Machine in
the face. Calhoun then hit a German Suplex on Fun, and started to
taunt him.
Calhoun: This is the end Fun! It's your
fault!
Calhoun picked him up and hit a
brainbuster, and delivered more words.
Calhoun: We could have dominated! You
ruined it! You ruined your career!
Calhoun delivered a spine buster to Fun
Fight Machine.
Calhoun: I'm just here to enjoy
watching you suffer now! You're pathetic!
Calhoun hit a suplex on Fun Fight
Machine and smiled as the crowd started to boo.
Calhoun: I hope you like pain, Fun!
James Calhoun went over to the
turnbuckle, and started to take the covering off. Referee Dennis
Thompson rushed over and started admonishing Calhoun about the rules.
Calhoun grabbed Thompson again and brought him face to face.
Calhoun: Don't tell me what I can't to
do!
Calhoun finally let go, and shoved the
turnbuckle covering into Thompson's chest. Dennis Thompson went over
to put the covering back on as Calhoun approached Fun Fight Machine.
Calhoun started to pick Fun Fight Machine up, and Referee Dennis
Thompson turned around just in time to see Fun Fight Machine deliver
a low blow to James Calhoun. Calhoun fell to the mat, and Thompson
and Fun Fight Machine stared across the ring at each other.
THE Casey Gains: Calhoun just won by
disqualification!
Referee Dennis Thompson reached into
his pant pocket, and pulled out a pair of glasses and put them. He
looked over at Fun Fight Machine and shrugged his shoulders.
Edward Findleton: It was legal! The ref
didn't see it!
Fun Fight Machine nodded, and climbed
to the top rope. He jumped off, and hit the 450 Splash onto James
Calhoun. Dennis Thompson dropped to the mat, and counted to three to
give Fun Fight Machine the victory!
Edward Findleton: And Fun Fight Machine
triumphs over James Calhoun!
THE Casey Gains: I'm so conflicted over
this but....you know what? Congratulations Fun Fight Machine, you
took the opportunity and ran with it!
Edward Findleton: Indeed! Fun Fight
Machine has risen to the top, and what a fall from grace for James
Calhoun! The future for these two couldn't be any more opposite! What
a match!
Franco Mancini's music came on, and he
came out with Fergus O'Toole.
Edward Findleton: It's time for the Tag
Team Championship match! For these challengers, this is personal,
this is about family!
The Musical Lifeguard Chairs entered
the arena next, soaking in the energy from the fans cheers.
THE Casey Gains: And for the champions,
it's about going out on top. Either way, this is the last match for
LaZor and Mr. Lifeguard.
The match was starting off with Franco
and LaZor, as referee Tom Hunter called for the bell. LaZor's early
strategy was to try to play defensive and counter Franco's offense,
but the former World Champion was methodical with his movement, not
allowing LaZor the ability to counter. Franco tried to Irish Whip
LaZor, but LaZor finally got a reversal and whipped Franco instead,
but Franco came back and hit a flying crossbody and knocked him to
the ground straight into a pin, where LaZor kicked out at two. As
LaZor kept trying to get up, Franco would repeatedly clothesline
LaZor, knocking him to the ground, before LaZor gave up and crawled
to a quick tag to Mr. Lifeguard.
Lifeguard started to use his strategy
from his previous match with Franco, running the ropes and using
speed to his advantage to keep Franco on his toes. Franco was off his
game for a minute, but when Mr. Lifeguard ran towards him one time,
Franco ducked and hit a back body drop on Lifeguard. Franco then
wisely took Lifeguard and isolated him in the corner next to Fergus.
With Lifeguard in the corner, Franco climbed up and blasted him with
ten punches. Franco jumped down and started stomping on Lifeguard.
Franco picked Mr. Lifeguard up and
tried to hit a belly-to-belly, but Lifeguard blocked up, and hit his
own belly-to-belly on Franco. Franco looked hurt, as did Lifeguard.
Being closer to the corner of Fergus, Franco made the tag, but as
Lifeguard was in the center of the ring reaching towards LaZor,
Fergus grabbed his leg and dragged him back.
THE Casey Gains: That's good team work
by the challengers!
Fergus put Lifeguard in a chinlock,
wearing him down even more. Fergus finally let go, then stood in the
corner, sizing up Mr. Lifeguard.
Edward Findleton: Fergus looking like
he's ready to hit the superkick!
As Mr. Lifeguard got to his feet,
Fergus went for the Super Kick, but Lifeguard ducked. Out of no
where, Lifeguard hit Fergus with a Super Kick of his own.
Edward Findleton: Can Mr. Lifeguard
cover Fergus?!
Lifeguard was on the ground, completely
exhausted, and looked over at Fergus who was out of it. Instead of
going towards Fergus, Lifeguard crawled over to LaZor, and made the
tag!
LaZor jumped into the ring, and with
Fergus started to come to, picked up the O'Toole Brother. LaZor held
him close, then started to give repeated Rapid Headbutts.
Edward Findleton: The Headbanger! LaZor
has brought out the Headbanger!
Fergus looked knocked out, and LaZor
ran to the top rope as the crowd cheered. LaZor posed for the crowd,
and jumped off, hitting the Shooting Star Press! LaZor held his ribs
from the dive, and at the same time, Franco jumped from the apron and
grabbed a chair, then slammed it off the ring post. It alerted the
attention of Referee Tom Hunter, who rushed outside the ring to
confront Franco, just as LaZor had crawled on top of Fergus O'Toole.
Edward Findleton: One! Two! Three!
Four! This should be over!
Mr. Lifeguard now rushed over to the
opposite side of the ring, as Tom, Franco, and Lifeguard were all
struggling with the steel chair. LaZor stood up and looked outside
the ring, annoyed and trying to get Tom Hunters attention.
Suddenly from the far side of the ring,
a figure emerged from under the ring apron.
Edward Findleton: Casey! Look!
That's.....Is that Sean O'Toole?!
Sean O'Toole, normally in a shirt,
green trunks, and clean shaven, had the same goatee as Fergus and
wearing the same attire. Sean grabbed Fergus and pulled him out of
the ring and pushed him under it, then stood in the corner, eyeing up
LaZor had his back towards him, focusing on the chaos outside the
ring. Sean stomped the mat, and LaZor turned around, right into a
Super Kick from Sean O'Toole!
Franco finally let go of the chair and
pointed to the ring, as Sean was covering LaZor. Tom Hunter rushed
in, and Mr. Lifeguard tried as well, but Franco tackled him to the
ground. Tom Hunter counted to three, and LaZor was pinned by Sean
O'Toole!
Edward Findleton: The O'Tooles stole
the match!
THE Casey Gains: It doesn't matter!
Fergus and Franco are the new Tag Team Champions!
Sean rolled out of the ring quickly as
Franco joined him, and Tom Hunter handed them the Tag Team Titles.
Once in their possession, Sean lifted the ring apron up, and a woozy
Fergus crawled out, as Sean handed him the title. The Trans-Atlantic
Family celebrated walking up the ramp.
Edward Findleton: We can add Tag Team
Champion to Franco's resume. And we can add trickery to the list of
things Sean and Fergus will do to win!
The Casey Gains: This match was all
about their family getting even, and Sean himself made sure that
family came first! That's the narrative I'm taking from this!
As the Trans-Atlantic Family made their
way backstage, Lifeguard helped LaZor to his feet in the ring. Both
men looked dejected, and LaZor was seen saying “I'm sorry” to
Lifeguard. Mr. Lifeguard shook his head and gave LaZor a hug, not
holding any ill will. The two men looked around the arena one final
time, and the crowd started to cheer, as a dual chant of “Thank you
LaZor/Thank you Lifeguard” started to break out.
LaZor and Lifeguard both nodded and
could be seen saying thank you to the fans. The Musical Lifeguard
Chairs theme song came on, and the two did one last rock dance to
cheers from the crowd.
Edward Findleton: What a career for
these two. When these two started out, I don't think anyone would
have predicted they would have been in the business this long.
THE Casey Gains: Two professionals I've
had the honor of wrestling on multiple occasions. They didn't go out
on top, but thanks to these fans, they're going out in style!
As LaZor and Mr. Lifeguard made their
way to the top of the ramp, they each gave one last bow and wave to
the crowd, and went behind the curtain one final time.
Jessie Parran was walking backstage,
when she turned a corner and bumped into Kitty Kayleen and Mitchell Row.
Kitty Kayleen: Hey, watch it! Oh...it's
you.
Jessie and Mitchell exchanged a glance,
but Jessie quickly looked away.
Kitty Kayleen: Yeah. He's mine now. And
you have no chance of taking anything, not him, and certainly not my
title.
Jessie: You can have him. I'm done with
him. And I'll get that title when I'm ready to take it.
Jessie pushed past Kitty Kayleen and
continued walking through the arena. She suddenly stopped at a door
that had an electrical warning sign on it. Jessie opened the door, to
reveal a maintenance room with breakers and wires everywhere. Inside,
she saw Drizzles and Hawaii, the Strange Crew, and a giant human
sized box that was covered in wrapping paper and a bow. Jessie walked
inside.
Jessie: Hey guys.
Hawaii: You found us.
Jessie: Yeah. I think I realized
that....you were my true friends all along. You've shown me my true
inner self every time. I want to be a part of The Strange Crew.
Hawaii: Welcome aboard friend! This
solves our problem! I guess we can get rid of our present.
Drizzles shook his head no, then
whispered into Hawaii's ear.
Hawaii: Actually....that's not a bad
idea......Jessie....what do you think about representing the Strange
Crew in the women's division....the women's...TAG division?
Drizzles: Please Ms. Parran, here our
call! Because we found you, a little doll!
Drizzles took the wrapping paper off
the box, revealing a life sized Female Doll inside. She stood staring
ahead blankly, before her head turned slowly towards Jessie, giving an unsettling smile.
Jessie: I think.....that next season is
going to be a good one for The Strange Crew.
The camera cut back to ringside, and
Kitty Kayleen's music hit. She came out with Mitchell, and held her
wedding ring up to the camera for a close up, before making her way
down to the ring. Referee Brenda Moses was already standing by.
Kitty: Mitchell and I had the most
romantic, lovely honeymoon a couple could ever ask for.
Mitchell: The only downside was trying
to negotiate a contract during it, but we did it!
Kitty: Yes! After some tense
negotiations, we came to an agreement. The Power Couple of HAW will
be back next season! And tonight, I defend my HAW Women's
Championship against...well, a nobody!
Mitchell: We agreed that no woman who
had a shot at the championship this season can face Kitty tonight!
That eliminates the entire roster! No Kherti's, no Exotic Delights,
Crystals or Rachels! So let's see which nobody Freezerman signed off
the street to face Kitty for the Women's Championship!
The couple smiled and looked up at the
entrance ramp.
Edward Findleton: Who's it going to be?
A few moments went by, and Kitty rolled
her eyes. She whispered a joke in the ear of Mitchell, and both
laughed. Suddenly, the music of Athena hit. The stadium erupted in
cheers, as Kitty's jaw dropped and Mitchell's eyes went wide with
shock.
Edward Findleton: What?!
THE Casey Gains: Athena?!
A couple seconds later, Athena walked
onstage to a thunderous ovation. She was wearing a t-shirt, with a
picture of her holding her newborn on it. Kitty and Mitchell started
screaming at Brenda Moses who ignored it.
Edward Findleton: Kitty and Mitchell
can't believe it!
THE Casey Gains: That's not a nobody!
That's the two time women's champ, and it looks like she's back to
wrestle!
As Athena approached the ring, she
jumped onto the apron. Mitchell Row took the moment to go on the
offense, and ran towards her to try to spear her through the ropes,
but Athena jumped to the side. Mitchell Row went flying through the
ropes, landing outside the ring. Athena got inside the ring, and
Brenda Moses quickly rang the bell. Kitty looked completely scared,
Kitty got on her knees to beg, but Athena simply walked towards her.
Kitty tried to run by climbing over the ropes to escape, but Athena
grabbed her legs. Athena lifted Kitty off the ropes so she had her on
her shoulders, then leaned back to hit Kitty with the Queen Suplex.
Brenda Moses got to the mat and counted three!
Edward Findleton: Athena wins! Athena
is the new HAW Women's Champion!
THE Casey Gains: Did I say two time
champion? I meant to say three!
Athena retrieved the Women's
Championship and held it up to cheers from the crowd.
Edward Findleton: Kitty and Mitchell
have their contracts for next season, but not their championship!
What a shocker!
Edward Findleton: This is it. It's time
for our main event. The HAW World Championship is on the line, with
no interference allowed. Crash MuscleGate vs Douglas Brunswick!
The camera view cut to the backstage
area, just before the entrance ramp. On one side was Crash MuscleGate
and the MuscleGang. About twenty feet away on the opposite side was
Douglas Brunswick and Mayor Briggs. HAW officials were keeping them
separated, prior to the match.
Crash MuscleGate's theme hit, and the
audience erupted in cheers. The MuscleGang wishes Crash good luck,
and he walked out on stage.
Edward Findleton: It's Crash
MuscleGate, the challenger!
THE Casey Gains: Crash has been in this
situation in prior HAW seasons, but has always come up short. The
question is, can he change the outcome tonight?
Douglas Brunswick's music played next.
Backstage Mayor Briggs seemed to give him some final words of advice,
and Brunswick came out to a fifty-fifty reaction from the crowd.
Edward Findleton: And the most dominant
man in this season of HAW, the HAW World Champion, Douglas Brunswick!
THE Casey Gains: This is his hometown.
It's split right now. If Brunswick gets his way tonight, it's going
to be all of Portland behind him as he holds the championship above
his head.
As Brunswick made his way down to the
ring, he stopped at ringside next to an older couple each with a
Brunswick shirt but one labeled “Mom” and the other “Dad.”
Douglas gave them both a long hug, then made his way to the ring.
Edward Findleton: You're right Casey,
the pressure is on both of these men, as we just saw Douglas with his
parents!
Referee Dennis Thompson took the title
and held it up, then rang the bell to start the match. Both men
circled each other to start, eyeing up each competitor. Crash then
approached Brunswick, trying to get some strikes in, but Brunswick
was able to block most of them. On a missed punch by Crash, Brunswick
was able to grab his arm and knock Crash to the ground, locking in an
arm bar in the process.
Crash was able to fight back to his
feet, but favored his arm. Brunswick kept up the assault on Crash's
arm, whipping it off the ropes and turnbuckles and trying to bend it
in painful positions. Brunswick whipped Crash to the ropes and tried
to an arm drag, but Crash rolled through and landed on his feet, and
delivered a quick kick to the chest of Brunswick. Brunswick fell over
in pain, and Crash started stomping on Brunswick's upper torso. Crash
got Douglas to his feet, and Irish whipped Douglas front first into
the turnbuckle. As Brunswick stumbled backwards in pain, Crash tried
for a roll up, but Brunswick kicked out at two.
With Brunswick face down on the mat and
trying to get his breath back, Crash looked suddenly excited. He
stood over Brunswick's back, then grabbed him and locked him in the
Physical Tear-apy, a Camel Clutch.
Edward Findleton: This could be it
right here! Crash has made many wrestlers submit to Physical
Tear-apy! We can have a new champion!
Dennis Thompson was checking on
Brunswick to see if he would submit, who repeatedly was shaking his
head. Brunswick's hand then went above the mat, looking ready to tap
out. It stayed there a few seconds, but instead he formed a fist and
started pounding Crash's injured arm. Crash tried to hold on, but
after a couple of shots, his grip broke and Brunswick escaped from
the Physical Tear-apy.
Both men were on the ground, Brunswick
holding his chest and Crash holding his arm. Douglas was able to get
to his feet first, and kicked Crash in the arm. Douglas went to kick
Crash's arm again, but Crash was prepared and caught the kick and
held his foot. In desperation, Brunswick jumped and hit an enzuigiri
to the back of Crash's head. Crash wobbled, looking ready to fall
down, but Brunswick quickly grabbed Crash's head and tucked it under
his arm.
THE Casey Gains: He's in position for
the Lifting Reverse DDT!
Brunswick looked around the arena and
nodded. He heaved Crash MuscleGate into the air, and hit the Lifting
Reverse DDT. Brunswick covered Crash, and Thompson got down on the
mat to count.
Edward Findleton: One, Two, Thre- Wait!
Crash kicked out! Crash MuscleGate kicked out!
THE Casey Gains: How?! No one has
kicked out of that!
Brunswick looked completely shocked and
started begging with Dennis Thompson, who insisted that it was only a
two count. Brunswick looked out to the crowd to his parents, who
started clapping and encouraging him to keep going. Brunswick, with a
renewed fire in his eye, turned his attention back to Crash and
started assaulting the arm again. Crash screamed out in pain, and
Brunswick locked in a cross armbreaker. Crash was writing on the
ground in pain, but managed to use his legs to move him to the ropes,
getting a rope break from Dennis Thompson.
Brunswick let go of the submission, but
wasted no time getting back to attacking Crash. Brunswick grabbed
Crash's hurt arm and Irish Whipped him to the ropes, while Brunswick
himself ran from into the opposite end of the ropes. Brunswick looked
like he was going for a flying clothes line, but as Douglas vaulted
towards Crash, Crash jumped up in the air and delivered a Dropkick
right to Brunswick's chest. Brunswick looked out of it, and Crash
slowly crawled on one arm to Douglas and covered him. Dennis Thompson
got down and counted one, then two, and at the very last moment,
Brunswick put an arm up.
Edward Findleton: And the Dropkick
fails too!
THE Casey Gains: Crash is pulling out
every trick out of the bag to win this and Brunswick is still not
giving up!
Both men crawled to opposite corners,
then used the ropes to stand up, gasping for breath and looking
across the ring at each other. The crowd cheered, recognizing each
wrestler was giving it their all. Both men then walked towards each
other, and Crash punched Brunswick with his good arm. Brunswick
returned the favor and punched Crash, and both men started trading
blows in the ring. Brunswick whipped Crash to the ropes and as Crash
came back, Brunswick dropped down and Crash jumped over him. When
Crash ran back towards him again, Brunswick got up and hit him with a
spinning heel kick.
Crash fell to the mat, and Brunswick
quickly hit a leg drop to keep him down. Douglas used this moment to
catch his breath some more, then bent down and started sizing Crash
up, waiting for him to get up. Slowly Crash made his way up, and
Brunswick crept up behind him. He grabbed his head again, and with a
quick tug, delivered a second Lifting Reverse DDT. Brunswick quickly
covered Crash again. Dennis Thompson quickly got in position, the
crowd counting along to one and two. The crowd had begun to yell
three as well, but Crash kicked out again and the arena erupted.
Edward Findleton: No! It's not over!
THE Casey Gains: Are you kidding me?!
Edward Findleton: Brunswick is shocked!
This audience is shocked!
Brunswick sat on the mat, his head
buried in his hands in disbelief. He seemed to suddenly snap to it,
and got back to his feet. Brunswick started helping Crash to his
feet, but Crash used what little energy and momentum he had to simply
start pushing Brunswick back to a turnbuckle, sandwiching Brunswick's
body between the turnbuckle and the Crash's shoulders. The move
looked like it knocked the air of Douglas, and he stumbled around the
ring. Crash moved over to Brunswick and grabbed his shoulders and
threw him into the ring post.
Brunswick was laying on the middle
ropes and the ring post in pain, and Crash went to the opposite
corner of the ring. As Brunswick started to turn around, Crash ran
towards him. Brunswick saw Crash coming, and ducked, as Crash did a
leap frog over Brunswick. Continuing his momentum, Crash hopped up
onto the top rope. Brunswick turned around, and Crash jumped from the
top rope, and hit a Missile Dropkick on Douglas Brunswick. Brunswick
fell to the mat hard, and Crash rushed over to to Brunswick and
hooked the leg.
Edward Findleton: One...Two...Three!
Three! Three!
The audience erupted in cheers as
Crash's music hit after the three count.
Edward Findleton: Crash does it! Crash
does it! Crash MuscleGate has won the HAW World Championship! He's
defeated Douglas Brunswick!
THE Casey Gains: I can't believe what
we just saw!
Edward Findleton: Crash MuscleGate,
after years of almost getting to the top but never achieving the
glory, after reaching the lowest point of his career and not giving
up, Crash MuscleGate has finally done it! He has become the HAW World
Champion!
Referee Dennis Thompson retrieved the
HAW World Championship and handed it to Crash, who climbed the top
rope and held it up as pyro went off around the arena. At that point,
the rest of the MuscleGang came out, Frederic St. Pierre, Lovable
Liam and Oden Schreiner. As they all got into the ring, they all
grabbed Crash and gave him a big group hug.
THE Casey Gains: This match was
supposed to be just be between Crash and Douglas, but Edward, forgive
me for getting really cheesy, but those three men were involved too.
Not directly, but they kept Crash going this season just when it
looked like he was done.
Brunswick had rolled out of the ring
and went to his parents, who gave him a hug and tried to comfort him.
Edward Findleton: And Douglas Brunswick
gave it all his tonight. There was doubt all season long if he was a
fluke, if he had the ability. He didn't come out on top tonight, but
this kid has shown he's the real deal and should be a threat for
years to come!
Inside the ring, Liam and St. Pierre
hoisted Crash up onto their shoulders. Oden raised Crash's one arm up
in the air, as Crash held the HAW World Championship in his other.
Edward Findleton: What a season it's
been! Thank you for following along with HAW! Have a happy new year,
and congratulations once again to the new HAW World Champion, Crash
MuscleGate!
