--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The lights fade out to a dim red glow and the words It Came From Hell appear on the big screen as 'You Can Run' starts to play.


Red pyro's shoot up along both sides of the ramp as Skull steps out onto the stage to a chorus of boos wearing his usual cloak and gothic ring gear.

Lizzie: Ladies and gentlemen this is the 4th opening round match of the cruiserweight title tournament. Introducing competitor number 1. From Hell, weighing in at 209lbs, SKUUULL!

JP: What an eventful start this tournament has already had. We now know 3 of the 5 Fighty fighty persons who will be coming back next week for the second round and we're about to find out the 4th.
Ray: i normally don't go for the little men but so far this tournament has been wild.
JP: This next match will be between 23 year old veteran, Skull and relative newcomer, Draigon.
Ray: Can Skull even be classed as a cruiserweight? he's on the very upper edge of the weight limit and he's spent most of his career as a middleweight. He may call himself the Prince of Aerialists but he sure ain't the King of Cruiserweights.
JP: Well i don't know how Skull will prepare for this match, not much is known about Draigon. I'm sure Skull would have loved to have got his hands on XRD but he wouldn't really want to face Stevie or Jake Diamond. Especially JD if he wants to keep in with the Coven.

Skull slides into the ring and jumps onto the turnbuckle where he reaches into his cloak and pulls out a small silver flask. He drinks from the flask but doesn't swallow, then throws his head back and spits a red liquid into the air, taunting to the fans as it rains down on him.

Ray: Just once, ONCE, I'd like Skull to start a match and not be covered in blood. It gets everywhere and messes up the ring. And more importantly it gets on other, better looking Fighty fighty persons and messes them up too.

Lizzie: And introducing his opponent, from Shi...zu..oka... Shizuoka, Japan... he stands at 5 feet, 4 inches tall... weighing in at 143 pounds... *her voice kind of gets a little meek as she reads it off and reads off how outsized the man is*... Draigon!!

Skulls grins evily, realizing the huge size advantage he'll have in this match.

A dragon appears on the titantron and snaps it's teeth viciously, followed by an explosion of sparks from the stage. 'Like Hell' by Loudness begins to play as Draigon steps out from the back and begins to move his feet quickly, running in place and bringing his knees up high. He is a small man in a strange red and purple outfit, wearing a black and white mask with a long ponytail torwards the top. He runs down to the ring and jumps into the ring, coming in between the bottom and middle rope and rolling on his back using his hands and feet to keep himself flipping a few times, bringing him to the other side of the ring on his feet. He then jumps onto the turnbuckle and raises his arms high into the air, taunting the crowd.

JP: Wow, this newcomer is already impressing me and the match hasn't even begun!
Ray: All that spinning! He's like a human yo-yo!


Draigon hops down from the turnbuckle and extends a respectful hand to Skull as the bell rings.

Skull puts out his hand as well but just as Draigon goes to shake it Skull whips it out of the way and starts laughing.

JP: I can't say I'm surprised at the disrespect Skull is showing this guy. I don't know if it's because he's new, because he's so much smaller or that he's from Japan. Probably all 3.
Ray: But you can't do that Jimmy. In Japan wrestling is all about honor. That's just as bad as spitting in his face.
JP: Oh don't worry Ray, I'm sure Skull's planning to do that as well.

The two circle eachother until Skull initiates a collar & elbow tie up. Draigon tries to overpower Skull but he just stamps on Draigon's foot and uses his strength to throw him to the mat.

JP: I said it before and I'll say it again; Skull is used to being a middle weight, the lightest in the division. He doesn't normally have a strength advantage over other Fighty fighty persons and now he's abusing it.

Skull picks Draigon up roughly, Irish whips him into the ropes then drops down making Draigon jump over him. On the rebound he picks Draigon up, attempting to go for a Tilt-a-whirl backbreaker but Draigon catches him in a headscissors and uses the momentum to spin Skull down to the mat. Skull scrambles back to his feet in disbelief at what just happened and looking to get back in control of the match but is quickly sent back down with a Dropsault. Learning from his mistakes Skull slides out of the ring to take a moment to regroup.

JP: Well i don't think Skull expected that. It'll teach him not to be complacent.

The ref starts the count and Skull reluctantly climbs onto the apron at 2 while Draigon pumps up the crowd from inside the ring.
Skull puts both hands on the top rope and vaults onto it, instantly springing off with a seated senton. Draigon sees what's coming and goes for a dropkick to catch Skull in mid air but Skull stops short, landing on both feet and laughs at Draigon as he falls to the mat catching nothing but air.

Ray: Skull needs to stop all this disrespect. The Japanese Fighty fighty persons don't like it. Just ask Rouroni, he'd knock your teeth out if you insulted him.
JP: Or as Stevie Rock puts it, you'll end up like a squashed frog.
Ray: Don't make jokes Jimmy! This could start World War 3.

Draigon gets back up and rushes Skull with alternate thigh kicks but after the initial shock Skull pushes Draigon hard in the chest with both hands, sending him down again. Before Draigon can even get back up again, Skull smashes him in the head with a stiff shining wizard.

JP: I think the fun and games are over now. Look at Skull's face, he means business.
Ray: I hope Draigon doesn't go back to Japan after all this disrespect. We're not all like Skull, he's British and we know what they're like, eww.
And besides I like looking at Draigon in that tight suit.

With Draigon on the mat holding his head, Skull climbs the turnbuckle and does the cut throat taunt which signals The Stinger. Knowing what's about to happen, the fans all around the arena start a 'don't get up' chant in unison hoping Draigon hears them as the camera zooms into a 'Fear The Stinger' sign being held up by a moody looking fan.

((Hey, I never knew Skull was British.. that's pretty cool.))

Draigon hears the chants but doesn't seem to understand them as he begins to get up. He turns around towards Skull, who comes flying high off of the turnbuckle. Draigon leaps up and this times lands the dropkick, both feet planting hard into Skull's chest. Both men drop to the ground.

JP: Draigon countered with a beautiful dropkick!
Ray: He's quick on his feet.

Draigon rolls back and comes up on his feet. He turns and climbs out onto the apron as Skull is laying on the mat, trying to get breath back into his lungs. Draigon leaps up and springboards off of the top rope, flying across the ring and planting a knee drop acrossed Skull's forehead.

JP: AMAZING! What a brutal and yet graceful attack!
Ray: If he's half this skilled in the bedroom, I'm sold!

Draigon hops up and jumps onto the turnbuckle, raising his hands high as the audience applauds. Draigon climbs to the top turnbuckle and does a backflip, landing on his feet in the ring to more applause.

Behind him, Skull is fuming with anger as he begins to get up and rushes to his feet, running up and shoving Draigon face first into the turnbuckle. As Draigon's mask turns a bit and makes it hard to see, he begins to straighten it as Skull lays into his back with strong forearms.

Skull then grabs him by the arm and pulls him more inward to the middle of the ring, then punches him before running into the ropes. Skull comes at him and ducks a little as Draigon hops up and leapfrogs over him. As Skull bounces against the other side of the ring, Draigon looks back and watches him. He jumps up again as Skull comes in and ducks a little, Draigon doing a backflip over Skull. Skull quickly turns and floors him with a powerful clothesline.

JP: Wow! Draigon displaying so much athleticism and skill!
Ray: Only to have Skull knock the hell out of him, haha, that's funny.

Skull picks him back up and hits him with a few stiff right hands before jumping up and flooring him yet again with a dropkick. He climbs up to the top rope and measures Draigon up before leaping off for a 450 splash. Skull nails it with a loud impact, then hooks the leg and goes for the pin.

JP: WHAT A MOVE! Skull just about squashed the poor kid!

1...2...kickout.

Skull pulls Draigon up to his feet and whips him into the ropes, Draigon grabbing the ropes and then running over and climbing to the top turnbuckle in a hurry, where he stands and watches Skull.

Skull comes rushing in and Draigon does a flip into the ring, going over Skull and landing on his feet. Skull turns around and is met with a swift superkick to the chin that sends him back against the ropes. Draigon runs to the other side of the ring and comes running back at Skull.

Skull grabs him under his arms and lifts him up into the air and delivers a swift kick to the crotch as Draigon is coming down, Draigon clutching himself and dropping to the mat.

JP: Oh, come on! That was completely uncalled for!
Ray: With everyone hitting each other in the nuts, I'm not going to be able to get ANY action, am I?
JP: Like you would otherwise...

The fans boo at Skull as the referree warns him about the dirty tactic.

With Draigon down on his Knees, Skull limps around the ring holding himself, making fun of Draigon to the delight of the crowd.

JP: You may not be a fan of Skull's actions but sometimes you just have to laugh.
Ray: Yeah, well maybe it would be more entertaining if he had more to hold on to.

With Draigon now almost half way to his feet, Skull sets up for another shining wizard but steps over Draigon at the last minute and applauds, continuing to take the piss.
He climbs on the ropes and attempts to get a 'Draigon Sucks' chant going but the fans quickly answer back with a 'No you do!' chant.
Skull just laughs it off and waits for Draigon to get back to his feet.
Draigon gets up and runs at Skull, who catches him in a wheelbarrow but Draigon rolls through and pins Skull.

1... 2... Skull kicks out.

Skull springs back to his feet after the sudden shock of the pin just in time to see Draigon sprint to the ropes. Skull instinctively catches Draigon with an arm drag but he floats over, grabs Skull under the arms and lands in a backslide pin.

1... 2... Skull kicks out but Draigon grabs his arms and turns him over into another backslide.

1... 2... Skull kicks out again.

JP: Wow. Some impressive skill there by Draigon. Skull wasn't expecting that.
Ray: I'm amazed at the speed. Skull just got turned inside out, back to front and upside down. It's like they were in a giant washing machine on spin cycle while at the same time playing naked twister!
JP: Why naked twister?
Ray: I can dream can't I?

Both Fighty fighty persons get up and circle eachother while they get their breath back. They lock up again with Draigon taking control with a side headlock which he quickly turns into an Irish whip before Skull can use his strength to break out.
Skull is whipped into the turnbuckle but manages to stop himself from hitting. Using his body to block Draigon's view, Skull slaps the turnbuckle pad to make a sound then slumps in the turnbuckle holding his head and pretending to be in pain.
Sensing that he can get the upper hand, Draigon handsprings across the ring and turns in mid air, trying to hit Skull in the face with an elbow but at the last minute Skull leans back in the turnbuckle and mule kicks Draigon right in the spine.

JP: Ouch! Getting kicked in the small of the back when you have that much momentum can never be pleasant.
Ray: Skull may be the most cunning but Draigon is the better Fighty fighty person. If Skull actually played by the rules this match would be over by now.

As Draigon is holding his back at the pain and temporarily stopped, Skull grabs him and throws him into the ringpost. He walks around the ring arrogantly, admiring his work, as he waits for Draigon to recover.

Draigon pries himself from the turnpost slowly and turns around, but not in time to avoid a shoulder to the gut from Skull. Skull backs out and rams his shoulder in a few more times, working over the abdomen of Draigon.

JP: Skull is dispicable. He's showing a complete lack of respect for both Draigon and the rules.
Ray: It's Skull... that's what he does.

Skull grabs Draigon by the arm and irish whips him into the ropes, lifting a knee into Draigon's gut as he bounces off, sending him almost doubled over. He follows with an irish whip and hold to the other side of the ring, nailing Draigon with another knee to the gut again, sending him flipping over and down to the mat.

Skull plants his foot in Draigon's stomach and lifts his other, pushing down on it with his weight, Draigon grabbing Skull's leg and trying to get it off of him in vain. Skull steps over and Draigon holds his stomach tight, rolling around in pain.

JP: And there he goes again. Skull is just taking every advantage he can hear tonight against this newcomer.
Ray: That's why he is the champion. He's smart, he uses every opening he can get to win and that is the key to winning. And he's kinda cute!
JP: God, help us..

Skull pulls Draigon back up to his feet and irish whips him again. This time however, Draigon flips forward onto his hands and lets his feet go forward, bouncing on the ropes and then back, landing back on his feet and twisting around. The quick motion finds Skull unable to block what comes next as Draigon spins back with a kick foot, landing an enzuguiri kick against the side of Skull's head, flooring him.

Draigon scrambles as soon as he hits the mat and gets over to Skull, hooking the leg, looking for the pin.

1...2..kickout.

JP: So close, what a great move!!

Draigon clutches his head in frustration and begins to lift Skull up to his feet, getting surprised with a quick european uppercut.
