June 21st, Summit Hill Pa. WSWF Heavyweight Championship Match Donnie Brass(C)VS Kage Kage was not scheduled to wrestle, but came out to let everyone know, that he was the number 1 contender for the heavyweight title. He even went so far as to call out Jesse, the championship committee chairman. Feeling the heat from Kage, Jesse had no choice but to sanction a title match that night. Donnie Brass came to the ring with his cocky attitude, but was visibly shaken, knowing he had to face such a monster. Kage dominated the match from the start. Kage took control with a huge sidewalk slam. But as he continued to work on Brass, the champ was doing everything he could to high tale it out of there. But as he got to the entrance way, there was Kage to man handle him once again. Dragging him back to the ring area, Kage picked Donnie up and slammed him off the ring apron. As the two got back in the ring Brass was able to stun the big man with a dropkick, but like vintage Undertaker, Kage rose up, and Brass was so stunned by this. As he tried to punch away at the big man, Kage gave him a huge boot, then sent him into the ropes. Kage leap frogged Brass, and delivered a powerful spin kick. After leaving the ring again, Kage dragged Brass back in the ring and gave him a jack hammer suplex, the ref counted 1-2, then stood up and called the match at the 15 minute mark, calling it a time limit draw. As Kage jawed with the ref in the corner, Brass was waiting to strike, and when Kage turned around, he was knocked out with the Title belt. But before Donnie was able to go through the curtain, Kage got on the mic, and told Brass, that this was just the begining, and that Kage would end the career of Brass, and take his title.
