World Tag Team Championships: MNM vs. The Second City Saints
"NOTHING FROM NOWHERE, I'M NO ONE AT ALL.... RADIATE, RECOGNIZE, ONE SILENT CALL.... AS WE ALL FORM ONE DARK FLAME...... INCINERATE!!" blares the music, the red hot New York crowd shouting out the lyrics as the lights dim, dry ice pouring around the famous ECW entrance way as a massive ovation goes up, CM Punk and Colt Cabana bursting through the curtain
"NOTHING FROM NOWHERE, I'M NO ONE AT ALL.... RADIATE, RECOGNIZE, ONE SILENT CALL.... AS WE ALL FORM ONE DARK FLAME...... AS WE ALL FORM ONE DARK FLAME...... AS WE ALL...." goes AFI as Punk and Cabana are announced by Roberts, climbing the steps and through the ropes, each heading to a separate corner, the camera focusing on Punk who holds up his X before hopping down and moving to his corner with Colt Cabana, MNM having a frantic and worried team talk opposite it seems
"LOVE... YOUR HATE.... YOUR... FAITH LOST... YOU.... ARE NOW... ONE... OF US" continues Misteria Cantare, the crowd still shouting along with it as it cuts, giving way to this electric crowd and a big time "CM PUNK, CM PUNK, CM PUNK" chant
"CM Punk the big time favorite here at One Night Stand and his feud in Ring of Honor with Michael Shane is the stuff of legend Tazz" goes Joey Styles, having reached his announce position alongside the Redhook native Tazz
"Big time Joey, these two put on some of the best indy matches ive ever seen, the respect each other, they have great matches together and i think both would love to see who the better man is on the biggest stage - right here in ECW" spits the Human Suplex Machine as the four stare each other down, approaching each other as the World Tag Team Titles are paraded, MNM casting aside their DX T-Shirts, seemingly happy to fight in jeans for this one giving the scene a "street fight" like atmosphere
"Those are an impressive pair of belts Joey, had the honor of being a World Tag Team Champion myself back in the day and lemme tell ya, it don't come any higher as far as tag team wrestling goes" claims Tazz as the belts are handed out
"No doubt Tazz, MNM three times the champions, being pretty confident here, putting up their spot in that TLC match this Sunday up for grabs and despite their affiliation to ECW, i've gotta belive CM Punk and Colt Cabana would love nothing more than to win those belts and make an impact at WrestleMania" goes Styles, Tazz agreeing
"No doubt, WrestleMania is as big as it gets Joey, these are massive stakes and if i know these four this is gunna be a rocketbuster" he claims as the bell rings out and this tag team contest is underway here at One Night Stand 2007, CM Punk starting us off against Michael Shane. Collar and Elbow tie up, into the Side Headlock by Punk, converted into the Hammerlock, around and behind. Shane drops down however, goes through Punks legs... up and behind into a Waist Lock, nicely done. Punker is struggling, throws an elbow back, again, Shane losens his grip... enough for Punk to switch into a Waistlock of his own but Shane kicks his heel back, hitting Punk in the knee and causing him to break and stagger back. Shane spins quickly and grabs the arm, twisting it for the arm wringer, a slow paced by technically sound opening here in the early moments as Shane kicks up into Punks armpit, nasty move causing him to stagger into the corner. Shane swaggers over and grabs the arm, going for the whip, reversed by Punk, Shane charging across the ring, Punks running after him - Slingshot by Shane, goes downstairs - School Boy roll up - one, two, both men break away, quickly to their feet - Arm Drag by Shane, again as Punk staggers up, goes for the thing, blocked off, the American Dream goes for the wild Clothesline - ducked under by Punk, around and behind, the arm in his hands again, Hammerlock, sweeps the legs - Hammerlock Legsweep DDT, Shane planted, Punk rolls over, hooks the leg - one, two, tno, Shane kicks out as the smart crowd applaud, impressed with that sequence. Punk grabs the Champion by his head as he stands, backing up into the corner to tag in Cabana, the Chicago native heading through the ropes and hitting Shane with a nice Right hand to send him staggering back, another, into the corner, Cabana takes a run up..... Flying Asshole, that trademark Flying Hip Attack. The crowd roar, sensing the momentum building for the Saints as Shane staggers forward out of the corner, into the Gut Kick from Colt, underhooks both arms, maybe thinking about the Colt 45..... Back Body Drop by the American Dream, Cabana sailing over and hitting the canvas, Shanes already running into the ropes opposite as he tries to sit forward.... CRACK, the DX man hits the Low Dropkick to the back. Cabanas down, Shanes already up and charging at the ropes, leaps onto the second one, Springs off backward..... Lionsault, the leg is hooked, the count is made - One... Two... Threno, Cabana just kicks out at the last possible second, Shane cursing and standing, grabbing Colt by the head and walking him over to MNMs corner. Shane slams his head into the pads before tagging in Nitro, the two working over him with mudhole stomps in the corner. Shane exits as Nitro begins to choke Cabana with his boot, the ECW Referee of course not stopping him. Nitro steps back as Cabana gasps for air and goes to the ropes, making a gesture at "Hat guy" in the front row before returning to Cabana whos trying to stand, clutching his throat.... Snapmare by nitro. Colts down, handstand by Nitro, twirls his legs - trademark show-off Legdrop across the throat - Lateral Press - Two only, CM Punk breaking it up, seemingly annoyed that his partner is being singled out. Nitro leaps up, jawing with Punker who retreats to his corner under the Referees instruction, the incident allowing Cabana time to gather a few of his sense.... but Nitro scores with the Double Leg Takedown near the ropes, grabbing both limbs in his arms and positioning Cabana perfectly for the Slingshot right into Michael Shane on the apron..... Nitro goes for it - Elbow to the face of Cabana by Shane as he flys up, brutal looking move, Cabana nose surly broken as he falls back over Nitro, resting on his back like a see-saw as Shane leaps onto the top rope -
"GUILLOTINE LEG DROP!!" spits Styles, the ECW crowd jeering as Cabana is seemingly decimated with the move across his face and throat. Shane covers, the Elbow to the face considered a tag - One... Two... ThreNO, Cabana barely kicks out, Shane slamming the mat in frustration this time and leaping to his feet, eyes watching Colt Cabana as he struggles to his feet - Shane urging him up, stalking him, little movements matching his opponent exactly. Cabanas up, back to Shane - Waistlock - German Suplex. Shane stands, dragging Cabana with him.... second German Suplex, no rest as Shane rises again, looks the deliver..... but this time Cabana resists, furious elbows thrown backward as we see that he is indeed bleeding from his face, his mouth busted by that vile elbow. Shane staggers backward, Cabana spins and on groggy legs his a Gut Kick, hooks the arms..... Colt 45, Cabana scores with the Underhook Backbreaker but cant capitalize as he goes down to his knees, desperately trying to recover his strength. Colts up on his knees as the American Dream rises, he tries to grab his leg but Cabana leaps.... tags in CM Punk, the Manhattan Center exploding as be bounds through the ropes at Shane - right hand, right hand, into the corner, Punk grabs the arm - Irish Whip sends Shane charging across the ring. Punks following again..... big time Knee strike, grabs the head still in the corner, flys forward - Bulldog. Punks feeling it now as he calls on the crowd who respond with a roar, Shane on his knees, head fatally explode - Knee strike by Punk, again, again, again, again, the Champion up and staggering, he's shoved into the ropes by Punk - Irish Whip, sends the American Dream charging across the ring, Punk bends for the Back Body Drop.... Shane kicks him under the chin. Front Face Lock, hoists him up, looking for the Snap Suplex.... Punk slides down the back, Shane spins.... and Punk scoops him up over the shoulders into the Firemans Carry, looking for the Go To Sleep, the crowd on their feet anticipating it.... but Shane slides down behind Punk, already running into the ropes behind him as Punk spins, Shane rebounds off with massive momentum....
"SPEAR, SPEAR, HE HITS THE SPEAR...." cries Styles, Shane rolling over, grabbing the legs as Nitro leaps in to intercept Colt Cabana
"ONE"
"TWO"
"THREE"
MNM win it
"You think you can tell us what to do? you think you can tell us what to wear? you think that you're better? ...well you better get ready to bow to the masters..... BREAK IT DOWN!!" roars the DX theme, the ECW crowd jeering as the Referee thrusts the Titles into Shane and Nitros arms, raising their hands
"MNM have won this match Tazz, a fantastic contest and I'll give both teams their dues, it was win clean and legitimately by MNM, as much as i dislike what they came out here and said, this was an impressive victory" claims Joey Styles as Punk gets to his feet, MNM backing away toward the ropes
"Damn straight Styles, both these teams had something to prove about who the better men and company were and i think the Saints may have just given MNM a hell of a run for their money right there" answers Tazz as CM Punk extends his hand for a handshake, Cabana doing likewise
"A classy act Tazz, the Second City Saints showing their respect to the World..."
Styles breaks off as MNM extend their hands and then snatch them away with a smirk, both men rolling out under the bottom rope and backing up the aisle to a chorus of boos, leaving the Saints hanging
"On come on... there was no call for that, show some damn respect" spits Styles as MNM crotch chop, Punk and Cabana watching them go with a look of distaste as the crowd hurl abusive chants and we fade away to the backstage area....
