MAIN EVENT
Steel Cage Match
Dom Harter vs. Chris Tryon
The opening chords of “Superunknown” begin to play throughout the arena as Dom Harter steps out from behind the black curtain. He stands there, stroking his beard with a devilish grin on his face, not once taking his eyes off the steel cage as he begins his slow, deliberate walk down the aisle. Harter ignores most of the fans in attendance, their boos not affecting him as he runs his hand along the cage wall.
Cruz: The following contest is your main event of the evening! And it is a Steel Cage Match! Introducing first, from Cambridge, Ontario, Canada! Weighing in at 235 pounds! He is "The Tenacious Little Bastard"... DOM HARTER!
He climbs up the steel steps and enters the ring through the ropes. Once inside, Dom makes his way to the corner as he rests his arms on the top rope and his forehead against the turnbuckle pad as he waits for his opponent.
Clement: Dom Harter has evil intentions in mind. He has been salivating at this chance to get Chris Tryon inside of a steel cage.
Grayson: And why shouldn't he? Tryon is the one that ran his mouth. Tryon is the one that taunted him. Tryon is the one that got him arrested. And Tryon is the one that got him suspended. If you ask me, Dom is clearly in the right to be angry and want revenge.
The guitar screech from the beginning of "Just Because" by Jane's Addiction blares over the house speakers, and the fans rise to their feet anticipating The Usual Suspects. Chris Tryon steps out from the entrance and stand in front of the smoked out curtains. He stares out into the crowd, taking in the cheers, before walking to the ring high fiving a few of the fans in the aisle way.
Cruz: And his opponent, representing The Usual Suspects... CHRIS TRYON!
The bell sounds as Harter races over and baseball slides the steel cage door, knocking it into Tryon to boos from the crowd. Tryon immediately goes down and covers his face.
Clement: What a cheap shot that was by Dom Harter! He didn't even allow Tryon to get into the ring?
Grayson: You want to talk about cheap? Let's talk about how Tryon got Harter arrested and suspended instead of fighting him like a man...
