Lethal Lottery Finale (Alternative Format)

---

The lights in the arena fall abruptly. Laser strobe lights encircle the arena as a light fog cloudy the stage entrance. From the curtain emerges Eli Martin clad in a silky hooded robe, he marches to the trumpet of Rev Theory's 'Wanted Man'. Palming the hands of show goers while making his way ringside.

He climbs the steps and slithers between the ropes entering the ring, throwing back his hood and parting his robe to the ovation of the crowd, his fist clenched in the air he stands regally before the public with an intense glare in his eyes.

John Cartwright: Up next ladies and gentlemen, it is the SFT Hardcore Championship match. Jack Jones to defend his HC Title against Jamo here tonight.

Randy White: Oh boy, I can’t wait to see these two go at it.




Randy White: What in the world?

John Cartwright: How could anyone do that?

The screen replays the scene where Jamo had to eat his own medicine when he gets knocked down with a Lariat by the champion. The scene goes back live where Jones seems disappointed and drags him right near the corner of the ring. Jack Jones climbs up to the top rope and drops himself down with a five star frog splash.

Randy White: He's flying...!

John Cartwright: Bad landing guys!

Just before Jack Jones lands with his flying maneuver Jamo rolls out from the targetted area as the champion comes down, hurts his face and chest first on the ring mat as nobody was home. Jamo steals the opportunity, grabs the champion from his neck and tights and throws his body to the ring post through the middle ropes. Jamo drags him back inside the ring and again hits his body to the ring post but this time to the other side of the ring.

John Cartwright: If Jones survived these attacks then that must be a miracle!

The champion is partially knocked out and gets weakened as Jamo picks his dizzy body up and connects him with a successful Full Nelson Slam right inside the middle of the ring. Jamo wastes no time, hooking up the champion’s legs as the referee starts counting.

John Cartwright: Let's move on to our fourth event of the evening, where Jay Impact and Apokalypse will finally collide after the embarrassing venture that previously happened with these two.

The lights suddenly go red and start flashing as "Progenies of The Great Apokalypse" by Dimmu Borgir starts to play throughout the arena. Apokalypse methodically walks out from backstage and glares out at the fans in attendance before rushing toward the ring.

Ring Announcer: Making his way to the ring... weighing in at 249 pounds... from Death Valley, California... HE... IS... APOKALYPSE!

Once he reaches the ring, he slides in quickly and stands up in the center of the ring, again glaring out at the fans.

"Just Close Your Eyes" by Story of the Year hits in the PA system as Jay Impact walks out at the entrance stage in a deluxe yacht hat, walking on the ramp and gets inside the ring by sliding through the bottom rope and climbs on the ring corner to pose for the fans when his music suddenly stops.

Suddenly a bass guitar sets the opening of "Right to go insane" by Megadeth before the drums and lead guitar kick in after a moment of pure bass guitar. Seconds after the vocals of Dave Mustaine begin, a scarred Rumpke emerges from behind the curtain pushing a abnormally large cart full of all sorts of weapons! Jay and Apok puzzelingly look at the drunk with half cocked smiles as he pushes the large cart down the rampway. The camera focuses on Jay Impact's face and we read his lips saying what looks to be "Drunkee!" Seconds after this, Rumpke pulls out a microphone and looks out at the fans.

Rumpke: I've sat back and watched for awhile as the hardcore matches have been dwindling and this is a tragedy, is it not?

The fans ethusiasticly chant "Yes" before they boo.

Rumpke: What they're booing at, could be the lack of hardcore matches or it could be me.

Fans cheer.

Rumpke: Once again, it's not clear but you all like seeing people beat the brakes off of each other with weapons right?

The fans cheer even louder in response to Rumpke's question.

Rumpke: That's what I thought and this is why I'm here! I've got a ton of weapons for both men to beat the tar out of each other with.

The fans errupt loudly as both Apokalypse and Jay Impact's half cocked smiles become full fledge grins. The next thing we know, Rumpke puts down the microphone before reaching into the large cart. One hand pulls out a half of a pair of brass knuckles, and a sock. Rumpke tosses the sock to Jay Impact and the single brass knuckles to Apokalypse. Both men catch the weapons and Jay is the only one puzzled with the sock. We can hear him yell, "What am I going to do with a sock!?!" Rumpke smirks and nods while he motions with his hand for Jay to hold on, next thing we know; he reaches in and pulls out a bar of soap before tossing it to Jay Impact. Jay, looks at the bar of soap and the sock and is still puzzled. Rumpke sees this and grabs the microphone.

Rumpke: It put's the soap in the sock...

Jay signals for a microphone and moments later, gets one.

Jay Impact: What? Are you drunk?

Rumpke: Of course I am, put the bar of soap in the damn sock! Then it becomes a weapon, like a flexible mace! It's not rocket science!

Jay does as Rumpke suggests and starts swinging it around. The bar of soap in a sock happens to hit Jay on the arm as it flung around and then the man understood how it could be a weapon as he slightly carressed his arm for a brief moment. The next thing we see is the drunk, he begins tossing everything from steel chairs to baseball bats, some wrapped in barbed wire and before we know it. The whole ring has an aresenal of weapons laying throughout the ring as fans cheer loudly.

Rumpke: Hold on referee, every hardcore match...

The drunk one pauses while he searches under the ring for a moment. Then as he pulls another weapon out from underneath the ring...

Rumpke: A table!

Seconds later, Rumpke tosses the table into the ring before smiling as he nodded. Then the drunk walks up the rampway and leaves ringside while Apokalypse looks like a kid who's entered a candy shop. Jay Impact is still trying to figure out how to swing the soap and sock combination without hurting himself. The referee calls for the bell just after Apokalypse grabbed the other pair of the brass knuckles that Rumpke tossed from the ground. Apok places the other brass knuckles in his grip before sadistically grinning at Jay Impact who is still trying to figure out how to not hit himself with the sock and soap combination. Apokalypse, he moves in for the kill with his guns cocked when he's suddenly nailed with the make shift mace! The camera spots a white sized object that's barely larger than a pea leave Apokalypse's mouth before the man crashes too the ground! Jay Impact looks in awe as for the first time, this weapon didn't cause him any harm at all. He then goes for the pin and the referee almost gets a three count right then and there.

Jay gets up before we hear him telling the referee that he wants that tooth! The ref looks at Jay with and odd expression as the man peels a staggered Apokalypse up off of the ground.

John Cartwright: How far did Apokalypse's tooth fly out of the ring?

Randy White: It was a home run John! I doubt they'll recover that tooth, some lucky fan will have it by now and Jay likely won't touch it!


Jay Impact is suddenly hit with a low blow from Apokalypse who then grabs a lead pipe before he rattles Jay's cage with that vicious weapon. Jay collapses to the ground and Apok goes for the pin. The referee hits a one count and follows this up with a two count but the man finds a way to kick out!

Randy White: Damn! Jay kicked out after that stout blow!

John Cartwright: Seems to me like these two are evenly matched! I've seen Apok go toe to toe with Rumpke in a hardcore match but I've never seen Jay in a no holds barred brawl like that! Can he handle this?!?

Randy White: Soon, time will tell John! Apokalypse kept up with Rumpke, now it's Jay's turn to run the russian roulette with another capable hardcore champion!

Apokalypse is the first one up and as he presumably reached down to grab and bull Jay up by the head. Mr. Impact himself, flat out kicks Apok square in the mouth and the man falls on his ass without a hope of gathering his whits at that time! The momenteum of that solid blow, it was too much for his body to handle!

John Cartwright: There's something about a hardcore match that makes every blow, hit that much harder!

Randy White: That's because these men and women involved in this style of matches, they've got to fight for every inch! There's no comforting blanket of rules to protect them!

John Cartwright: Are you starting to like these matches Randy?

Randy White: No, I hate how they embody, lawlessness.. Yet, I stand by the fact that there's no rules to protect a hardcore fighter!

Meanwhile, during this discussion between John and Randy; Jay Impact has not only grabbed a baseball bat but he's also shown a vicious side of him by beating Apokalypse over the back, the head and hell, the guy even broke the wooden bat over Apokalypse's back with the third swing!!! Jay Impact once again pins Apokalypse but the man showed not only his fortitude but also his guts by kicking out at exactly the two count!!

Randy White: That was one hell of a vicious streak from Jay Impact with the bat! Hopefully he doesn't think about...

Yes, Jay thought about and even tried to stab the jagged edge of the broken bat into Apokalypse's lower abdomen but the former champion rolled out of the way at the last second. While Jay took a couple of seconds to recover from this short burst of power that he exerted, Apokalypse grabbed the sock with a soap bar in it before he slung it right into Jay Impact's nose!!

Randy White: Damn that Rumpke! This was suppose to be a friendly exhibition, standard rules... Until he came out and ruined it..

John Cartwright: The fans are cheering loudly for this brutality! Maybe, the drunk one is on to something!

Yet just before that makeshift mace found it's target, Jay Impact had nailed Apokalypse with a half of a pair with brass knuckes!! Jay pins Apokalypse and the referee counts.
