Juventud Guerrera AJ Styles
Michael Shane TAKA Michinoku
Teddy Hart Kaz Hayashi
Jonny Storm Michael Modest
The crowd cheers big time for this one. There should be some good matches throughout the tournament.
Disco Inferno: Also tonight, I must hand out some title shots. The NAWA World Tag Team Champions The Lost Souls will do battle in singles competition. Gabriel will face the Sandman for the NAWA Xtreme Title and Azrael gets a shot at Jimmy Yang and the NAWA Cruiserweight Title. I believe Raven has something to say right about now so I will hand this interview off to the NAWA World Champion.
Raven grabs the microphone as the crowd boos.
Raven: Being a master manipulator is a thing of beauty when being at the top of the game. The cards fell in my favor last Sunday night. I could have ended Harry Harris's pitiful challenge to my NAWA World Title at any time but instead I made him think he had a hope in dethroning me. I waited and then I crushed his resolve when his wife turned on him. A well calculated ruse if there ever was one. You saw what happened after he realised that he was betrayed by the one that he least expected. He was in numb shock. Helpless to do anything. He made a half hearted attempt to attack me after the match but as you see he got put down once again like he will every time he decides to challenge my destiny. The destiny that governs the Raven to become NAWA World Champion. So it shall written, so it shall be done. Quoth the Raven, nevermore.
Kathlyn grabs the microphone from Raven.
Kathlyn: I am sure all you pieces of pitiful pond scum in the crowd are wondering why I did what I did last Sunday. Well it is very simple and it all boils down to money. Money that I have been unable to get my hands on. I have waited patiently for six years, Harry. Yet you decided to keep up this career which brings you nothing but broken bones from the insane offense and shredded skin from barbed wire. It sickens me that you continue this when you never would have worked a day of your life. You know what money I am talking about. I am not going to say it because these morons in the crowd do not need to know.
Miles Stylish grabs the microphone.
Stylish: It isn't nice to hold secrets over the crowds head, especially that they can ruin the life of a long time rival, so I am going to tell the crowd right now what the deal is. This goes back about 20 years. The mafia scene in Chicago was dominated by a family called the Andrettos. The head of that mafia branch as Guido Andretto. Safe to say his sister married a deadbeat alchoholic, or so that was the official word from the mafia. Offical word his the husband beat his wife to death althrough it was most likely a hit from a rival mob, given the nature of mob wars. Anyway Guido and his cohorts gunned down the husband and took his nephew, an eight year old by the name of Harry, away and raised him. This kid constantly got upstaged by another little kid named Miles and eventually this kid got wrestling training and is now here in the NAWA. I think you know where I'm going with this one, so let me wrap this up. The kid inherited a lot of money, somewhere in the neighborhood of about 2 and a half billion dollars.
Miles pauses as the crowd boos.
Stylish: That is not all. It seems like good ol' Guido is in poor health these days and he has willed his forture to his nephew, which let's just say it is enough money to make Vince McMahon look like a common street bum. So in conclusion....
"Danger Zone" by Kenny Loggins plays and the crowd pops big time. Out comes Harry Harris. Harry Harris is out to a big pop.
Harry Harris: Miles, that was inspiring. I must say you have a career telling bed times stories to little children after I snap your neck tonight for opening old wounds. I'll take a match tonight with ANY OF YOU JACKASSES IN THE RING. You think you have put be down. I am past the period of numb shock and now I am ready to gain my vengeance tonight. I want Miles Stylish. I want Raven. Handicap Match tonight. Make it happen Disco.
Miles grabs the microphone.
Stylish: I wish I could pin you in the center of the ring, again, Harris, but I have a sore shoulder and will be unable to crush your hopes and dreams for 100th millionth time.
Raven grabs the microphone.
Raven: Harris, you are foolish in thinking that you have a hope of beating me, when last Sunday night I proved that you are not on my level. However, you want a battle tonight, a war will be brought. I will even put my destiny, my NAWA World Title belt, in the balance for the second time in less than a week. You are on, Harris. You have been sentenced to be annihilated tonight. So it written, so it shall be done.
Harris holds up his microphone.
Harris: Thank you, Raven. I am sure that when I win the NAWA World Title Belt tonight, you guys will all be back to square one. Life's a bitch and heck I sure know, because I married one.
We pan back to the ring with Kathlyn having her mouth wide open and flipping her husband off. Miles and Disco hold her back while Raven just stares down Harry Harris from the ring. Raven vs Harry Harris the rematch for the NAWA World Title....tonight on Glory.
