"Jam packed to the rafters you couldn't fit another soul in this arena if you tried, welcome to the Air Canada Centre, welcome to the 3rd Annual Halloween Havoc. Good evening everyone I'm Gorilla Monsoon and broadcasting with me here tonight, Jesse The 'Count' Ventura."
"I may not be as scary as Dracula but let me tell you this Monsoon, tonight we have so many huge matches I think this is going to blow the roof off of the place."
"World Title on the line against Canada's favorite son Bret The Hitman Hart whom do you see claiming that prize."
"Bret Hart has always been a natural in the ring and he even called the Champion out for being a one trick pony, but the REAL question is can Bret Hart avoid that move of doom, however I still believe Misawa has a lot to prove tonight, I think for the first time ever, we will have a new World Champion."
"Well lets not waste anymore time and take you down to ringside with Maestro of Ceremonies, Justin Roberts."
"Ladies and Gentleman the following contest scheduled for one fall will be for the NWA Women's Championship. Introducing first the challenger, from Calgary Alberta Canada, Natalya. And her opponent, from Buffalo New York, she is the reigning NWA Women's Champion, Beth Phoenix.
[Play Out]
Both women had the same expression on their faces, they wanted to win and last time Natalya was taken by surprise by Beth, now she was better prepared perhaps as they went eye to eye. Not one word was exchanged as they seemed to let their eyes do the talking as they backed away and started to move around the ring and locked up. Both women would start to push as Beth would push Nattie back two steps but immediately, Nattie would push back those same two steps. Beth would push a bit harder and found out that Nattie wasn't moving, in fact, Natalya started to push her back and with one good shove, pushed Beth to the corner.
Now that was a bit of a shock as Beth looked at her with a 'oh really' look on her face and came in for another lock up and gave Natalya one hell of a push though she came off the rope with a flying shoulder block connecting right to the face. Nattie would then quickly drop her with a headlock takedown and held on like a vice, forcing Beth to rise to her feet and push her off. Nattie hit the rope and ducked the clothesline, coming off herself with a crossbody. Nattie rose and caught Beth with a dropkick then another drop kick, catching her off guard with a backbody drop then a clothesline out of the ring.
Beth rose up and didn't expect this kind of offense from Natalya and also didn't expect her to suicide dive through the ropes as Nattie crashed into her knocking her into the table. Nattie pulled her up and looked to bulldog her to the floor though during the leap Beth would push her off as Nattie slammed into the barricade. She turned around and caught Beth with a flapjack, she would land rib first into the barricade as Nattie tossed her into the ring, climbing the top rope and poised.
She waited for the right moment and came down with a double ax over the head then tackled Beth to the corner, ramming her shoulder into her midsection then kicked at her, pulling her from the corner with a bulldog, covering with a latteral press for two. Natalya dragged her up and would suplex her then bodyslam her, locking in a sit out armbar, digging her knee into the elbow. Beth growled in rage as she found the strength to get to her feet, pulling Nattie in and caught her for a Blackhole Slam though Natalya countered it right into a DDT.
Nattie got to her feet and caught Beth with a flying neck breaker a la Bret Hart then would lock in a sleeper hold. Natalya had it locked in perfectly, using Beth's own weight against her with her own as she would keep the pressure on. Beth would drop to a knee after a moment, seeming to slip out of concsciousness until she reached back, grabbing Natalya by the hair and flipped her over her shoulders to the mat.
Beth stumbled and took a dropkick to the face and fell to the apron, rising up as Nattie tried to suplex her back into the ring though it was blocked. Beth would then pick Nattie up and held her up in the air for the suplex, she looked as if she were going to suplex her to the floor as she held her up with her superior strength and instead of falling back she just tossed Nattie forward as she smacked front first onto the mat. Phoenix moved back into the ring and grabbed Nattie by the hair, tossing her hard to the corner and watched her bounce off, dropping her with a whirling spinebuster.
Beth then grabbed her by the leg, dragging her to the center of the ring and looked to lock the leg though Nattie sat up, grabbing Beth by the hair and locked in a small package for two. Beth rose with a swing as Nattie ducked and caught her with an atomic drop then a chicken wing suplex, taking her time and dropped her with a clothesline, climbing the top rope and came down with a Bret Hart elbow over the head, tossing Beth to the corner and started to dish it out against her head.
Natalya then tossed her to the other corner, coming in for a splash but took a boot right to her face, stumbling back as Beth charged in with a clothesline that spun Nattie in air to her back. She dragged her up and locked in a bearhug, squeezing the life out of her then turned it into a belly to belly suplex, tossing Natalya clear across the ring. Beth caught her with a rear waist lock though Natalya would counter and dropped her with not one, not two, not three but five german suplexes. Natalya rose slow, slugging over Beth's head then tossed her to the ropes though it was irish whipped, Beth going for a double ax though Nattie hit a dropkick to the knee. Natalya got to her feet and locked in a facelock though Beth quickly turned it into a northernlight suplex but thanks to her knee, she couldn't hold it.
She rose slow but Nattie got a hold of the leg and would mandara twist her down, going for a leglock though one stiff kick to the face told her otherwise. Beth got to her feet and caught Natayla with a press slam then locked her in a full nelson suplex, hitting Natalya with one hard clothesline to the floor. Beth went after her, slamming her face into the announce table then hit a back suplex on the floor, tossing Natalya back into the ring and started to walk up to her, stomping along her body then started to drop a few elbows over her head, taking a few steps back and kicked Natalya hard in the ribs. It was dirty yes but it was for a title as she pulled her up, bashing her head into the turnbuckle and turned her around, kicking to her ribs then placed her on top. Beth would climb up though one hard headbutt knocked her down.
Natalya caught her balance and leapt with a cross body though Beth caught her in mid air, she shook her head and tossed her across the ring with a fallaway slam. She rose with a grin but didn't expect Nattie to recover that fast as she was taken down with an Anvil Style tackle, hitting her twice and called her up and actually got her with an Owen Hart wheel kick, Natalya waiting for the right moment and came in with a burning clothesline though Beth caught her arm and dropped her with a flatliner.
Natalya shook her arm some as Beth rose up, tossing Natalya hard to the buckle and watched her smack off chest first then placed her on her shoulders, dropping her with the King Kong Buster, rising to her feet and came in with a kick to the ribs as Natalya grabbed the ankle, tripping her up and locked her in a half crab. Beth would growl and kicked her off, hobbling to her feet as Natalya hit a chopblock, taking her down. Nattie rose up and dropped a few elbows, dragging Beth up though she was backbodydropped over the ropes to the apron. Natalya rose as Beth grabbed her by the hair though Nattie came down with a rope guillotine, hitting the apron again and dropped Beth with a sunset flip though Beth rolled back and kicked Nattie right in the face.
That was stiff as Beth looked down at her, pulling her to her feet and began to hit european uppercuts then a hard kick to the gut, lifting her up for a shin breaker though Nattie countered with a tomoe throw. She rose and caught Beth with a flapjack then a back suplex, keeping up the rally and this time caught her with the burning clothesline. She waited and kicked to the ribs, going for a DDT though Beth rammed her into the corner. She started to punch over her head, ramming her knees into the midsection then tossed her with a hiptoss. Beth locked her in a full nelson though Natalya would roll, getting Beth off of her. Natalya came in but was tossed into the air then dropped flat upon her front then taken down with a double underhook suplex.
Beth dragged her up though Nattie held onto the rope, Beth trying to jerk her off but took an ensiguri to the back of the head and that looked to knock her clean out, Natalya going for the cover, only for two. She got to her feet and dropped Beth with a rib breaker, coming in with a dropkick though Beth grabbed at her ankles and would slingshot her right into the turnbuckle, falling flat upon her back. Beth looked down at her, watching her pull herself up then blasted her in the face with a hard forearm, hitting her a few more times and tossed her with an irish whip back and tried against for a blackhole slam but Nattie held on with a front face lock clutch, scissoring the legs around. Nattie held on like a vice as slowly Beth would drop down to her knees then down to the mat, Nattie holding on tightly.
Beth was on dream street as the ref came over, checking on her as Nattie yelled at her to check her, though Beth started to rise, getting to her feet and rammed Natalya into the corner to break the hold. Beth staggered back but took a double boot to the face, Nattie hitting the middle rope and dropped her down with a mid rope bulldog, watching Beth stagger and would suplex her, then a snap suplex then a gutwrench suplex, hitting Beth in the gut and would powerbomb her to the mat but knew that wasn't going to be enough. She pulled her up and would drop her with a piledriver and rose up, hearing the call of the fans as she had to keep the pace, picking up Beth and dropped her with a brainbuster, seeming to have this locked up as she went for the legs. Beth would fight back with a hammerblow right across the skull, Natalya holding her head and fell to the floor. That was one hell of a punch as Phoenix got to her feet, shaking her head and rolled to the floor, tossing Natalya back into the ring and dropped her firmly with a Protoplex.
She dragged her up and tossed her to the rope, pulling her up and slammed her down with a vicious Alabama Slam then would apply a Boston Crab. Natalya would fight, digging her nails into the mat some and started to reach for the rope but couldn't move an inch, Beth having it latched on nice and tight. Natalya would start to crawl a bit, digging even if she had to as she would just barely get a hold of the rope, but it counted. Beth would release the hold and dragged her up, dropping her with a double underhook sitout powerbomb, rolling back and dropped her with a double ax to the chest.
Nattie was then tossed to the corner and placed on top, Beth climbing up and looked for a superplex but it was blocked. She woudl try again but it was blocked again, Natalya not wanting to suffer that fate as Nattie would start to fight back, trying to knock Beth off though Beth fought back with a headbutt. Beth would try again raising Nattie up though she would flail her legs, getting back on the top rope, picking Beth up and would drop her with a super canadian suplex.
The crowd began to scream out Holy Shit as that was one of the most insane things they had ever seen as Natalya slowly rose to her feet, hearing the crowd as she rose her thumb up then down to signal the end of the game, moving to the corner and would wait, getting in her father's patented 9 point stance, charging in and connected with the shoulder block, then another then a flying shoulder block, a Bret Hart back breaker then dropped a few forearm drops over the head, hitting the middle rope and waited as she would leap with a snap DDT. Natalya got to her feet and would pull Beth up and took her down with a wrist clutch exploder suplex. She came off the rope with one hell of a clothesline, picking up Beth and dropped her with her new move The Heartbreaker which was an inverted sit out powerbomb, covering her...........NO. Unbelieveable, Beth Phoenix kicked out and Natalya was a bit shocked at that, not wanting to use her trump card but she had no choice, moving to the legs of Beth whom kicked her off.
Nattie came off the rope but was pressed overhead then dropped over the rope. Beth shook her head and went for a german suplex but it was blocked with a back elbow, Natalya would hit her with a springboard dropkick to the face, grabbing a hold of the legs and would apply the Sharpshooter. Natalya had it locked in tight right in the center of the ring as Beth was trapped in the vice like grip, trying to crawl towards the ropes using his strength though Natalya pulled her back to the center of the ring. Beth would push up and tried to kick off though Nattie would lean back applying pressure to the back as Beth gave up, starting to crawl again towards the ropes. Beth got a finger upon it though Natalya again would drag her back to the center of the ring and started to sit down, Beth literally roaring in pain but refused to quit. Natalya would keep the pressure hold refusing to let go as Beth would start to crawl towards the ropes again, dragging Natalya with her the best she could, reaching for the rope and just missed it as Natalya pulled her back, Beth now frustrated and rose her hand up, preventing herself from tapping out as she used her other hand to hold it up.
She shook her head and would push up with her hands, yelling out and little by little started to crawl once again towards the ropes, it almost seemed to take her forever as she would reach for it and again Natalya pulled her back right to the center of the ring, Beth just dropping from the pain corsing through her back as the ref would check on her, raising the arm once.....twice....NO Beth still had some fight left in her as her fist would shake in the air, slamming down in a rage and would literally become red with anger, using her leg strength and would break the hold by pushing Natalya off of her.
She smacked right into the turnbuckle, stumbling back as Beth went for a german but it was blocked, Natalya hitting three big time german suplexes then a dropkick, catching her with an armdrag then a backbody drop, getting ready to finish the game with the Heartbreaker one more time though Beth blocked, getting behind her and picked up Natalya and dropped her with the Glam Slam, turning her over and covered.....1.......2.........3.
"Ladies and Gentleman here is your winner and STILL NWA Women's Champion, Beth Phoenix."
What a display of athletism there, Natalya went to the limit with Beth Phoenix and all of that work still equaled a loss, talk about a heartbreaker alright as Beth slowly made it to her feet, clutching her title to her chest and held her back in agony as Natalya slowly got to her feet. Both women would stare at each other from afar and slowly met in the center of the ring, oh the intensity was thick you could cut it with a knife Gorilla would say as Natalya would glance at the title she so badly wanted to hold. She would then take Beth's hand and rose it up, admitting defeat right there in the center of the ring. A true sportsman however you wanted to slice it, Natalya bowing out gracefully knowing the better woman won tonight as she would head to the back, Beth Phoenix standing tall in the middle of the ring, raising her title up and dared anyone to come and try and take it from her, exiting to the floor and headed to the back as we prepared for the next contest.
Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the NWA World Tag Team Championships!
(Play out)
Both teams hit opposite corners, pink and black vs. black and white as Chono and Mutoh took off their NWO t-shirts, Hart Dynasty took off their leather jackets, obviously trying to channel the spirit of the Hitman as the bell rang. All four men charged the center of the ring and traded rights, Tyson and Mutoh, Chono and David. Chono and Mutoh got the upper hand, pushing the two challengers to the corners. They fired them off at each other, but Tyson grabbed a hold of David's hand, as David launched him straight back at Mutoh, Tyson leapt up with a dropkick to Mutoh's face, knocking him out of the ring. Chono came forward and missed a clothesline attempt as Smith hit an inverted atomic drop, Tyson coming in with a superkick to the chest, knocking Chono down.

Smith back body dropped him over the top, Tyson cannonballing straight onto the NWO and rolled back inside, Dynasty was out to make a point.
Chono and Mutoh got back to their feet as the action was hot and heavy in the early going, Tyson taking to the apron, leaving David in the ring. Mutoh slid into the ring to challenge the young powerhouse to a test of strength. David easily won that, lifting Mutoh into the air by his hands, but Mutoh kneed him in the chest to get back down. He drove Smith to the corner and shoulderblocked him a couple times before hammering his head with some right hands. David reversed Mutoh into the corner and drove a knee to the midsection, then a shoulder block, then fired him to the other corner, charging in with a clothesline. Mutoh leapt between the ropes and hit the apron, David hitting the corner. Mutoh sprang off with a sunset flip, but David caught him on his back and delivered an alabama slam, taking Mutoh down. Mutoh rolled up in the corner and got avalanched before getting hip tossed out.
Mutoh backpedaled into his corner, tagging Chono in as the two stood in the center of the ring, Chono talking smack to Smith. David pushed Chono who answered with a right hand, but David ducked it and hit Chono with a stalling atomic drop, then a clothesline, taking him down. He picked Chono up in the corner, hammering away on him until Chono started to fight back, the two trading blows from the corner to the center of the ring, just slugging it out all the way to the opposite corner, Chono getting the upper hand. He sent David into the ropes, catching him with an abdominal stretch, but Smith hip tossed out of it. Chono got back up and was irish whipped, but reversed David into the ropes. He missed a clothesline and was taken down from behind with a dropkick to the back of the head by Tyson, who nailed the blind tag. Tyson used his speed, dropping elbows onto Chono's face before picking him up.
Chono stuck a thumb in Tyson's eye and went to pick him up for a body slam, but Tyson went up and over and rolled Chono up. 1.... 2.... no, Chono pushed him off into the ropes. Tyson bounced off and hit Chono in the face with a low dropkick, covering again. 1.... 2.... no, Chono kicked out again.

Tyson rolled through and got to his feet, coming at Mutoh fast, but Mutoh countered with a hip toss that Tyson landed on his feet with. Tyson went for a right hand but Mutoh ducked it and went for an atomic drop, but Tyson went up and over and pushed Mutoh to the ropes, going to roll him up, but Keiji hooked the ropes, pushing Tyson off.
Tyson flew from the other side and Keiji went to take his head off with a clothesline, but Tyson crucifixed around him and landed behind him, going for a right hand of his own. Keiji retaliated, crucifixing around HIM and turning it into a crucifix DDT, spiking Tyson's head into the mat. Keiji stomped on Tyson's head before going to the top rope. He came off with a cross body, but Tyson rolled through! 1.... 2.... no, Mutoh kicked out of it and kicked Tyson with a spin kick to the gut. He tossed him to the corner and came out from the other side, going for a cartwheel elbow, but Tyson got out of the way, arm dragging Mutoh as he came out of the corner. Mutoh quickly nipped up to his feet and hit an arm wringer out of the armbar, punching Tyson in the face. Tyson hit an arm wringer of his own into a wristlock, but Keiji brought forth a roundhouse, which missed Tyson, but broke the wristlock.
Tyson came charging with a dropkick, but Mutoh caught him and slammed him down. He went for a flashing elbow, but Tyson avoided it. Tyson and Mutoh sprung to their feet at the same time, Tyson blocked a right hand, then Mutoh blocked a right hand. Tyson swung wild, but Keiji ducked it and went for a leg sweep, but Tyson jumped over it. Tyson went for a spinning heel kick, but Keiji grabbed his leg and went for a dragon screw, but Tyson went for an enziguiri, missing it, but landing on his feet. He rolled forward, tossing Mutoh into the ropes, who came off with a Shining Wizard, but Tyson ducked underneath it as Mutoh fell onto his back. The two men nipped up and turned around, stopping in their tracks.
"Wow! What an exchange, Jess!"
"What the hell happened to Tyson Kidd? He kept up with Mutoh in every sequence!"
Tyson and Mutoh got a standing ovation for the exchange as Chono tried his luck, coming in and locking up with Tyson. He brought Tyson down in a headlock takedown, but Tyson headscissored him, breaking it. Chono got to his feet and was taken down with a dropkick to the face, but rose right up. He was taken down with an arm drag, and rose again, charging in, but was taken over the top rope to the apron. Tyson came in with a right hand, but Chono blocked it and went to suplex him on the floor, but Tyson landed on his feet next to Chono on the apron. Chono jumped to the floor as Mutoh ran the apron and blasted Tyson in the face with a superkick, knocking him over the rope, back into the ring!
Chono slid back into the ring and covered. 1.... 2.... no! Tyson barely kicked out of that as now the NWO were in control. Chono picked Tyson up and drilled him with a suplex, tagging in Mutoh. Mutoh came off the top rope with an elbow drop to Tyson's chest, picking him up and hitting a standing dropkick to Tyson's face.

Tyson was picked up and dropped with a body slam, Chono tagging back in, as the two picked him up and sent him into the ropes, dropping him with a double shoulder block. They ran to opposite ropes and came off with stereo flashing elbows, Keiji quickly sliding out of the ring as Chono went for the cover. 1.... 2.... no, Tyson still had some fight left in him.
Chono picked him up and sent him off the ropes, sending him into the air and letting him drop chest first into the mat. Tyson sprang back to his feet from the recoil and was taken down with a beast of a clothesline, Chono egging David on, who reached for the tag, trying to will Tyson on. Chono grabbed Tyson and backed into his corner, Mutoh blindly tagging in. Chono lifted Tyson high into the air for a stalling suplex and turned around to Mutoh, who came off with a flying body press, nailing Tyson as Chono dropped him down with the suplex! Mutoh covered for 1.... 2.... no! Smith was there to break up the count again as Chono came at him, but was thrown over the top rope! David came to attack Keiji, but was blocked by the referee, who sent him back into the corner. Keiji crossed his throat and flipped David off, which sent him charging through the referee at Mutoh. He missed a clothesline as Keiji superkicked him into the corner.
Chono came back inside and irish whipped Keiji into David, but Smith got out of the corner, Keiji blasted the turnbuckle hard as David clotheslined Chono over the top to the outside! Mutoh came back and was hit with a reverse DDT, as Smith finally got back to his corner, willing Tyson on! The fans rallied behind him, willing Tyson to the corner as he reached for the tag, but Mutoh grabbed a hold of his foot, holding onto it, keeping him from tagging. Tyson got back to his feet and went for another enziguiri, but Mutoh ducked underneath and hit a flashing elbow onto the leg, keeping Tyson down. Chono got back to the apron and tagged in, coming in with Keiji who still had the leg held. Chono turned Tyson for the STF, but Tyson fought out of it, breaking the attempt.
Tyson slowly rolled to his feet as Chono charged in, but took a boot to the jaw, Tyson climbing the top rope. He came off and flew high into the air, blasting Chono dead between the eyes with a missile dropkick, knocking him into the opposite corner! Tyson came in with a jumping leg lariat to Chono's face, bringing him out and hit a snapping DDT, rolling over for the cover. 1.... 2.... no, Chono kicked out, Tyson only had an arm over him. Tyson pulled himself up by the ropes and went to the apron, going to fly. He springboarded off the top, nailing Chono with a bulldog, covering again! 1.... 2.... no! Chono kicked out again, as Tyson was starting to build some momentum. He delivered some right hands, rocking Chono back and came off the ropes, crucifixing around him and dropped down, rolling Chono up for the Sharpshooter!
Holy crap did Chono fight out of this, pushing Tyson off, right into David who tagged in! He came in and shoulder blocked Chono down. Keiji came in and got clotheslined down, as David took the two of them on by himself, placing Chono in the corner. He threw Mutoh into him and charged at both of them. Mutoh rolled out of the way, but Chono was nailed with a clothesline, sending him to a seated position. Mutoh charged in, but was hip tossed in the corner, Mutoh's feet nailing Chono straight in the face! Mutoh was wobbly getting back to his feet as he hooked him up for the Bulldog Suplex! He looked at Tyson who climbed the top rope, David lifting him up. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 seconds he held him before Tyson jumped off with a dropkick, which sent Mutoh crashing down to the mat with the suplex! David then grabbed Tyson and lifted him up for a vertical suplex, suplexing him right onto Keiji! Smith covered for 1.... 2.... no! Chono was right there and broke the count up, as he pushed David to the corner!

Keiji got back to his feet somehow and nailed David in the back of the head with a spinning wheel kick, taking him down. He got back to his feet and Tyson ran at him, but Keiji back body dropped him, but Tyson was backdropped at Chono, he hooked Chono's head and hit a super hurricanrana, sending Chono crashing into Keiji!
"Who the hell is the legal man, Monsoon?"
"I lost track of that Jesse, I think the referee needs to re-establish control!"
Hart Dynasty was on a roll as the referee, indeed, lost control of the match, as David got back into the ring and grabbed Chono, the two legal men were in the ring. David went to the corner and lifted Chono onto his shoulder, hitting the running powerslam! 1.... 2.... NO! Keiji was right there with a shining elbow to the back of David's head, breaking the pin! Tyson came flying from out of nowhere with a running dropkick, knocking Keiji to the outside of the ring, as it was 2-on-1, Chono was in trouble. Tyson finally legally tagged in and called for the Hart Attack! Tyson hit the apron as David tossed Chono to the ropes, hitting an inverted atomic drop, then lifting him up in a bear hug. Tyson springboarded off the ropes, going for the clothesline, when from the other side, Keiji springboarded off the ropes and took Tyson out of the air with a springboard Shining Wizard!
Chono saw the collision and nailed David in the neck, hitting a Yakuza kick to his face, knocking David out of the ring! He covered Tyson, he was knocked out, they retained the titles! 1.... 2.... 3-NO!!!! Tyson kicked out of the Shining Wizard, and Chono couldn't believe it! Chono and Mutoh's faces were those of disbelief and shock and amazement, the fans came unglued! Chono picked up Tyson and delivered a ChonoTrigger straight in the center of the ring, this was it now. He covered Tyson, hooking both legs for 1.... 2.... NO! David was right there to break the pin again, taking Chono and driving him into the turnbuckle! He was reversed into it as Mutoh came from the other side with a cartwheel elbow, nailing David straight in the mouth. He hooked his head for a bulldog and leapt, but David shot him straight off, right into Chono!
David charged in but was hit with a double drop toe hold, his face hitting the second turnbuckle, as he got back to his feet, Chono and Mutoh hit him with stereo superkicks... hitting opposite corners! He was in perfect position for the Blackout as Chono and Mutoh ran forward, Mutoh leaping for the Shining Wizard, but David ducked out of the way as Chono Yakuza kicked, taking Mutoh straight out of the Shining Wizard, almost breaking his neck! Oh my god, the crowd cringed at that as Mutoh was knocked COMPLETELY out, the referee bringing the X symbol immediately, as Tyson was getting up on the outside. Chono, in his confusion, turned around into another bear hug, as Tyson leapt off the rope, nailing the Hart Attack!!! Tyson covered Chono as the referee came over! 1.... 2.... 3-NO!!!!! Chono kicked out!!!!
"My God, Monsoon! What a match this has been!"
"It's gonna come down to who wants it more, Jesse!"
"But it's 2-on-1, Chono took out his own man!"
Tyson couldn't believe it as he hit his knees, David picking him back up and telling him they had to focus. Mutoh was taken outside of the ring and was being checked on as the match continued on, Chono getting back to his feet. He was sent into the corner and came out as David lifted him for a second powerslam, but Chono slid out of it and shoved him into Tyson, knocking Tyson down. Chono Yakuza Kicked David square in the face, taking him out of the ring, as he poised for another one, waiting to take Tyson's head straight off. He ran forward and kicked, but Tyson caught his foot, sweeping him down and locking in the Sharpshooter!!!
Everyone was on their feet as Chono was in the Sharpshooter in the center of the ring, and Mutoh was being tended to, there was no one to help him, as Chono struggled in the center of the ring! Tyson reeled back hard, keeping it locked in, as Chono crawled inch by inch to the ropes, coming within mere inches of them, but he couldn't reach them, as Tyson pulled him back to the center of the ring! Chono was in massive amounts of pain as he pushed himself up, pushing his legs forward, breaking the Sharpshooter!
Tyson picked himself back up in the corner, waiting for Chono to rise, he was gonna take his head off with a monster of a kick, as Chono rose up. Tyson ran forward as Chono turned around and spat green mist into Tyson's face! Tyson ran straight into the mist and turned around into a Yakuza Kick, as Chono fell over Tyson, his body motionless on top of Tyson's! 1.... 2.... 3!
"Ladies and gentlemen, here are your winners and still NWA World Tag Team Champions, Keiji Mutoh and Masahiro Chono!"
Chono pulled a page out of his partner's play book and somehow, despite the odds, was able to pull a victory out, but rolled to the outside, where Mutoh lay, unmoving. The replays showed the miscue several times, Chono blasted Mutoh dead between the eyes and knocked him unconscious as the EMT's checked on him. Chono pushed all the referees away and picked Mutoh up himself, as Gotoh came down as well, helping Chono get Mutoh to his feet. They picked him up and helped him to the back, but one thing was for sure, Hart Dynasty had absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, they gave the NWO the biggest challenge to date. Chono and Gotoh looked back as Chono raised his hand, raising both the belts over his head, as they helped Mutoh backstage, Dynasty could only look on, knowing that they tried their best, but the NWO was just that good.
"Ladies and Gentleman, the following contest scheduled for one fall is for the NWA Cruiserweight Championship. Introducing first, from Tampa Florida, weighing in at 212 lbs, the Ice Man Dean Malenko. His opponent, from Japan, weighing in at 185 he is the reigning NWA Cruiserweight Champion, Ultimo Dragon."
The bell sounded and these two looked at each other from across the ring, locking up as Dragon locked him in a headlock takedown. Malenko broke out with a headscissor. Both men rose as Malenko dropped him with an armdrag though Dragon spun his body back to his feet and connected with a dropkick.

Slowly Dean would make it to his feet and seemed to use his strength and neck muscles, countering the Dragonsleeper right into an Inverted Brainbuster Piledriver. 1-2, NO! Dragon kicked out and the fans were going crazy for this as Malenko rose him up and pushed him to the corner, chopping to his chest then slugged over the head, placing him upon the top rope, looking for a superplex, raising up though Dragon countered it right into a Super Sunset Flip Powerbomb, Dragon covering, 1-2, NO.

"Ladies and Gentleman here is your winner and STILL NWA Cruiserweight Champion, Ultimo Dragon."
Oh my god what a cruiserweight match that was. Both men nearly killed each other in that match as Dragon slowly rose to his feet and was presented with the Cruiserweight Title, raising it up almost in defiance for ANY man to top that match from any company. The fans were going nuts over the victory granted he still worked for the NWO but you had to give him his due as he looked over towards Malenko whom looked at him, holding his neck a bit and would nod to him, slowly leaving the ring as Dragon would celebrate in the middle of the ring, leaving soon after as we prepared for the next match.

[Play Out]
Both women had the same expression on their faces, they wanted to win and last time Natalya was taken by surprise by Beth, now she was better prepared perhaps as they went eye to eye. Not one word was exchanged as they seemed to let their eyes do the talking as they backed away and started to move around the ring and locked up. Both women would start to push as Beth would push Nattie back two steps but immediately, Nattie would push back those same two steps. Beth would push a bit harder and found out that Nattie wasn't moving, in fact, Natalya started to push her back and with one good shove, pushed Beth to the corner.
Now that was a bit of a shock as Beth looked at her with a 'oh really' look on her face and came in for another lock up and gave Natalya one hell of a push though she came off the rope with a flying shoulder block connecting right to the face. Nattie would then quickly drop her with a headlock takedown and held on like a vice, forcing Beth to rise to her feet and push her off. Nattie hit the rope and ducked the clothesline, coming off herself with a crossbody. Nattie rose and caught Beth with a dropkick then another drop kick, catching her off guard with a backbody drop then a clothesline out of the ring.
Beth rose up and didn't expect this kind of offense from Natalya and also didn't expect her to suicide dive through the ropes as Nattie crashed into her knocking her into the table. Nattie pulled her up and looked to bulldog her to the floor though during the leap Beth would push her off as Nattie slammed into the barricade. She turned around and caught Beth with a flapjack, she would land rib first into the barricade as Nattie tossed her into the ring, climbing the top rope and poised.
She waited for the right moment and came down with a double ax over the head then tackled Beth to the corner, ramming her shoulder into her midsection then kicked at her, pulling her from the corner with a bulldog, covering with a latteral press for two. Natalya dragged her up and would suplex her then bodyslam her, locking in a sit out armbar, digging her knee into the elbow. Beth growled in rage as she found the strength to get to her feet, pulling Nattie in and caught her for a Blackhole Slam though Natalya countered it right into a DDT.
Nattie got to her feet and caught Beth with a flying neck breaker a la Bret Hart then would lock in a sleeper hold. Natalya had it locked in perfectly, using Beth's own weight against her with her own as she would keep the pressure on. Beth would drop to a knee after a moment, seeming to slip out of concsciousness until she reached back, grabbing Natalya by the hair and flipped her over her shoulders to the mat.
Beth stumbled and took a dropkick to the face and fell to the apron, rising up as Nattie tried to suplex her back into the ring though it was blocked. Beth would then pick Nattie up and held her up in the air for the suplex, she looked as if she were going to suplex her to the floor as she held her up with her superior strength and instead of falling back she just tossed Nattie forward as she smacked front first onto the mat. Phoenix moved back into the ring and grabbed Nattie by the hair, tossing her hard to the corner and watched her bounce off, dropping her with a whirling spinebuster.
Beth then grabbed her by the leg, dragging her to the center of the ring and looked to lock the leg though Nattie sat up, grabbing Beth by the hair and locked in a small package for two. Beth rose with a swing as Nattie ducked and caught her with an atomic drop then a chicken wing suplex, taking her time and dropped her with a clothesline, climbing the top rope and came down with a Bret Hart elbow over the head, tossing Beth to the corner and started to dish it out against her head.
Natalya then tossed her to the other corner, coming in for a splash but took a boot right to her face, stumbling back as Beth charged in with a clothesline that spun Nattie in air to her back. She dragged her up and locked in a bearhug, squeezing the life out of her then turned it into a belly to belly suplex, tossing Natalya clear across the ring. Beth caught her with a rear waist lock though Natalya would counter and dropped her with not one, not two, not three but five german suplexes. Natalya rose slow, slugging over Beth's head then tossed her to the ropes though it was irish whipped, Beth going for a double ax though Nattie hit a dropkick to the knee. Natalya got to her feet and locked in a facelock though Beth quickly turned it into a northernlight suplex but thanks to her knee, she couldn't hold it.
She rose slow but Nattie got a hold of the leg and would mandara twist her down, going for a leglock though one stiff kick to the face told her otherwise. Beth got to her feet and caught Natayla with a press slam then locked her in a full nelson suplex, hitting Natalya with one hard clothesline to the floor. Beth went after her, slamming her face into the announce table then hit a back suplex on the floor, tossing Natalya back into the ring and started to walk up to her, stomping along her body then started to drop a few elbows over her head, taking a few steps back and kicked Natalya hard in the ribs. It was dirty yes but it was for a title as she pulled her up, bashing her head into the turnbuckle and turned her around, kicking to her ribs then placed her on top. Beth would climb up though one hard headbutt knocked her down.
Natalya caught her balance and leapt with a cross body though Beth caught her in mid air, she shook her head and tossed her across the ring with a fallaway slam. She rose with a grin but didn't expect Nattie to recover that fast as she was taken down with an Anvil Style tackle, hitting her twice and called her up and actually got her with an Owen Hart wheel kick, Natalya waiting for the right moment and came in with a burning clothesline though Beth caught her arm and dropped her with a flatliner.
Natalya shook her arm some as Beth rose up, tossing Natalya hard to the buckle and watched her smack off chest first then placed her on her shoulders, dropping her with the King Kong Buster, rising to her feet and came in with a kick to the ribs as Natalya grabbed the ankle, tripping her up and locked her in a half crab. Beth would growl and kicked her off, hobbling to her feet as Natalya hit a chopblock, taking her down. Nattie rose up and dropped a few elbows, dragging Beth up though she was backbodydropped over the ropes to the apron. Natalya rose as Beth grabbed her by the hair though Nattie came down with a rope guillotine, hitting the apron again and dropped Beth with a sunset flip though Beth rolled back and kicked Nattie right in the face.
That was stiff as Beth looked down at her, pulling her to her feet and began to hit european uppercuts then a hard kick to the gut, lifting her up for a shin breaker though Nattie countered with a tomoe throw. She rose and caught Beth with a flapjack then a back suplex, keeping up the rally and this time caught her with the burning clothesline. She waited and kicked to the ribs, going for a DDT though Beth rammed her into the corner. She started to punch over her head, ramming her knees into the midsection then tossed her with a hiptoss. Beth locked her in a full nelson though Natalya would roll, getting Beth off of her. Natalya came in but was tossed into the air then dropped flat upon her front then taken down with a double underhook suplex.
Beth dragged her up though Nattie held onto the rope, Beth trying to jerk her off but took an ensiguri to the back of the head and that looked to knock her clean out, Natalya going for the cover, only for two. She got to her feet and dropped Beth with a rib breaker, coming in with a dropkick though Beth grabbed at her ankles and would slingshot her right into the turnbuckle, falling flat upon her back. Beth looked down at her, watching her pull herself up then blasted her in the face with a hard forearm, hitting her a few more times and tossed her with an irish whip back and tried against for a blackhole slam but Nattie held on with a front face lock clutch, scissoring the legs around. Nattie held on like a vice as slowly Beth would drop down to her knees then down to the mat, Nattie holding on tightly.
Beth was on dream street as the ref came over, checking on her as Nattie yelled at her to check her, though Beth started to rise, getting to her feet and rammed Natalya into the corner to break the hold. Beth staggered back but took a double boot to the face, Nattie hitting the middle rope and dropped her down with a mid rope bulldog, watching Beth stagger and would suplex her, then a snap suplex then a gutwrench suplex, hitting Beth in the gut and would powerbomb her to the mat but knew that wasn't going to be enough. She pulled her up and would drop her with a piledriver and rose up, hearing the call of the fans as she had to keep the pace, picking up Beth and dropped her with a brainbuster, seeming to have this locked up as she went for the legs. Beth would fight back with a hammerblow right across the skull, Natalya holding her head and fell to the floor. That was one hell of a punch as Phoenix got to her feet, shaking her head and rolled to the floor, tossing Natalya back into the ring and dropped her firmly with a Protoplex.
She dragged her up and tossed her to the rope, pulling her up and slammed her down with a vicious Alabama Slam then would apply a Boston Crab. Natalya would fight, digging her nails into the mat some and started to reach for the rope but couldn't move an inch, Beth having it latched on nice and tight. Natalya would start to crawl a bit, digging even if she had to as she would just barely get a hold of the rope, but it counted. Beth would release the hold and dragged her up, dropping her with a double underhook sitout powerbomb, rolling back and dropped her with a double ax to the chest.
Nattie was then tossed to the corner and placed on top, Beth climbing up and looked for a superplex but it was blocked. She woudl try again but it was blocked again, Natalya not wanting to suffer that fate as Nattie would start to fight back, trying to knock Beth off though Beth fought back with a headbutt. Beth would try again raising Nattie up though she would flail her legs, getting back on the top rope, picking Beth up and would drop her with a super canadian suplex.
The crowd began to scream out Holy Shit as that was one of the most insane things they had ever seen as Natalya slowly rose to her feet, hearing the crowd as she rose her thumb up then down to signal the end of the game, moving to the corner and would wait, getting in her father's patented 9 point stance, charging in and connected with the shoulder block, then another then a flying shoulder block, a Bret Hart back breaker then dropped a few forearm drops over the head, hitting the middle rope and waited as she would leap with a snap DDT. Natalya got to her feet and would pull Beth up and took her down with a wrist clutch exploder suplex. She came off the rope with one hell of a clothesline, picking up Beth and dropped her with her new move The Heartbreaker which was an inverted sit out powerbomb, covering her...........NO. Unbelieveable, Beth Phoenix kicked out and Natalya was a bit shocked at that, not wanting to use her trump card but she had no choice, moving to the legs of Beth whom kicked her off.
Nattie came off the rope but was pressed overhead then dropped over the rope. Beth shook her head and went for a german suplex but it was blocked with a back elbow, Natalya would hit her with a springboard dropkick to the face, grabbing a hold of the legs and would apply the Sharpshooter. Natalya had it locked in tight right in the center of the ring as Beth was trapped in the vice like grip, trying to crawl towards the ropes using his strength though Natalya pulled her back to the center of the ring. Beth would push up and tried to kick off though Nattie would lean back applying pressure to the back as Beth gave up, starting to crawl again towards the ropes. Beth got a finger upon it though Natalya again would drag her back to the center of the ring and started to sit down, Beth literally roaring in pain but refused to quit. Natalya would keep the pressure hold refusing to let go as Beth would start to crawl towards the ropes again, dragging Natalya with her the best she could, reaching for the rope and just missed it as Natalya pulled her back, Beth now frustrated and rose her hand up, preventing herself from tapping out as she used her other hand to hold it up.
She shook her head and would push up with her hands, yelling out and little by little started to crawl once again towards the ropes, it almost seemed to take her forever as she would reach for it and again Natalya pulled her back right to the center of the ring, Beth just dropping from the pain corsing through her back as the ref would check on her, raising the arm once.....twice....NO Beth still had some fight left in her as her fist would shake in the air, slamming down in a rage and would literally become red with anger, using her leg strength and would break the hold by pushing Natalya off of her.
She smacked right into the turnbuckle, stumbling back as Beth went for a german but it was blocked, Natalya hitting three big time german suplexes then a dropkick, catching her with an armdrag then a backbody drop, getting ready to finish the game with the Heartbreaker one more time though Beth blocked, getting behind her and picked up Natalya and dropped her with the Glam Slam, turning her over and covered.....1.......2.........3.
"Ladies and Gentleman here is your winner and STILL NWA Women's Champion, Beth Phoenix."
What a display of athletism there, Natalya went to the limit with Beth Phoenix and all of that work still equaled a loss, talk about a heartbreaker alright as Beth slowly made it to her feet, clutching her title to her chest and held her back in agony as Natalya slowly got to her feet. Both women would stare at each other from afar and slowly met in the center of the ring, oh the intensity was thick you could cut it with a knife Gorilla would say as Natalya would glance at the title she so badly wanted to hold. She would then take Beth's hand and rose it up, admitting defeat right there in the center of the ring. A true sportsman however you wanted to slice it, Natalya bowing out gracefully knowing the better woman won tonight as she would head to the back, Beth Phoenix standing tall in the middle of the ring, raising her title up and dared anyone to come and try and take it from her, exiting to the floor and headed to the back as we prepared for the next contest.
Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the NWA World Tag Team Championships!

He rolled forward, tossing Mutoh into the ropes, who came off with a Shining Wizard, but Tyson ducked underneath it as Mutoh fell onto his back. The two men nipped up and turned around, stopping in their tracks.
"Wow! What an exchange, Jess!"

The replays showed the miscue several times, Chono blasted Mutoh dead between the eyes and knocked him unconscious as the EMT's checked on him. Chono pushed all the referees away and picked Mutoh up himself, as Gotoh came down as well, helping Chono get Mutoh to his feet. They picked him up and helped him to the back, but one thing was for sure, Hart Dynasty had absolutely nothing to be ashamed of, they gave the NWO the biggest challenge to date. Chono and Gotoh looked back as Chono raised his hand, raising both the belts over his head, as they helped Mutoh backstage, Dynasty could only look on, knowing that they tried their best, but the NWO was just that good.

"Ladies and Gentleman here is your winner and STILL NWA Cruiserweight Champion, Ultimo Dragon."
Oh my god what a cruiserweight match that was. Both men nearly killed each other in that match as Dragon slowly rose to his feet and was presented with the Cruiserweight Title, raising it up almost in defiance for ANY man to top that match from any company.
