Dan Ryan vs. Scott Stevens
As we come back from the backstage area, the Hall of Fame duo is ready for the next match.
Joe Hoffman: Up next ladies and gentlemen is the battle over Texas superiority as Scott Stevens and Dan Ryan collide.
Benny Newell: Superiority? Dan Ryan is virtually superior to Stevens in every way possible.
The Best Arena darkens and the sound of a begins to chime as the HOV lights up and flashes across the screen a Texas flag with the words “Texas Born. Texas Bred.” “Texas Forever.“ branded into the flag. The jeers that had once filled the arena quickly turn into cheers. The Faithful know who is about to walk out and they are letting him know it by chanting his favorite chant as the final image that is displayed across the screen and that message reads in bold, capitalized letters… SCOTT STEVENS as
♫ “Dead Man Walking” by Crucifix ft. The Lacs ♫
Plays throughout the arena.
Joe Hoffman: The title for Stevens’ entrance music may be ironic for who he is about to face.
Benny Newell: Ironic? It’s a fucking prophecy Hoffman because Dan Ryan is going to murder Stevens!
The wait is finally over as a spotlight shines towards the top of the entrance ramp and Scott Stevens appears from behind the curtain, and as soon as he makes his way to the edge of the stage golden pyro begins to rain down behind him as he raises his right fist high into the air.
Bryan McVay: Introducing first, representing the Great State of Texas, from Houston, Texas and weighing in at 256lbs, he is…. SCOTTTTTTTTTTTTT! STEEEEEEEEEEEVENSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
As Stevens makes his way down the ramp he just smirks and shakes his head at the vocal bashers and fist bumps his supporters.
Joe Hoffman: The last time Stevens was in the ring it took the official to stop the match because Stevens wouldn’t give up.
Benny Newell: No one ever said Stevens was the smartest.
Stevens slowly makes his way around the ring completely focused on the task at hand until he reaches the nearest set of ring steps and proceeds to enter the ring. Once inside, Stevens goes to the nearest corner and ascends the ropes; looking out amongst the crowd before raising his fist into the air once more before dropping to the canvas as the former FIST shows no emotion as he stretches out on the ropes waiting for his opponent.
Joe Hoffman: Stevens looks focus here tonight because he knows a win over Dan Ryan can put him one step closer to another match with Mike Best.
Benny Newell: Stevens isn’t going to make it out of the ring in one piece Hoffman.
The lights go out and a dual-spotlight makes an encircling pattern on the entrance area as the opening riff of the song plays.
♫ “Daddy’s Home” by JT Music ♫
When the riff audio kicks it up a notch, Dan Ryan steps out and pauses, looking into the audience before heading down the aisle as pyro blasts behind him.
Bryan McVay: And his opponent, representing the Group of Death, from Houston, Texas and weighing in at 305lbs, he is…. THE HIGH OCTANE WRESTLING ICON CHAMPION! DAN! RYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!
The video shows clips from his career: power bombing Bobby Dean, super kicking Andy Murray, taking MJ Flair’s head off with a clothesline, hitting Perfection with the Headliner, countering a Jack Harmen dive into a vicious power slam, smirking as he pins Doozer, standing on a balcony looking down at Andy Murray with a sinister grin on his face.
Joe Hoffman: Since regaining the ICON championship, Dan Ryan has shown a more aggressive and sadistic side than normal.
Benny Newell: Hoffman, he’s just not giving a fuck anymore and hurting people brings him joy so why should he apologize for that.
Ryan walks directly to the ring, rolls in under the bottom rope, and climbs the nearest turnbuckle, keeping his arms down and smirking into the crowd as the music plays.
Boettcher signals for the bell.
Ding. Ding.
Joe Hoffman: And here we go…..
The two Texas sized behemoths come out of the corners and go to lock up, but Stevens counters the attempt and when Dan turns around the waiting challenger rocks the ICON champion with a thunderous European uppercut.
Joe Hoffman: The champion is staggered!
Benny Newell: Lucky fucking hit Hoffhole!
Joe Hoffman: Not many people can match strength with Dan Ryan Benny.
Benny Newell: Yeah well, not many people fuck as many sheeps as Stevens does, but we don’t say nothing about that now do we?
Stevens sees and opening and goes on the attack, but it doesn’t even see the light of day as a spinning elbow collides into the Texan’s face sending the former champion to the mat.
Joe Hoffman: HAMMER OF GOD! OUT OF NOWHERE!
Benny Newell: WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?!? I HAVEN’T EVEN HAD TIME TO LINE UP MY COKE LINES YET!
Dan rolls Stevens over onto his back and goes for a pin.
One.
Two.
Thre….
Dan Ryan picks up Stevens.
Joe Hoffman: What the…..he picked Stevens up?!?!?!?
Benny Newell: Oh good, he must’ve heard me….(SNIFF!)
Boettcher asks Dan Ryan and the champion responds he got his shoulder up. Dan picks Stevens up and makes sure he is standing up before he hits another rolling elbow.
Joe Hoffman: Hammer of GOD once again onto Stevens.
Benny Newell: Good thing it’s just his elbow Hoffman, if it was his dick Stevens would be dead.
Ryan goes for the cover.
One.
Two.
Three.
NO!
Dan Ryan pushes himself off of Stevens and Boettcher yells what are you doing?
Dan Ryan: He kicked out! Shut the fuck up and do your job!
Benny Newell: Yeah he kicked out Bitcher! Do your fucking job next time!
Dan Ryan hits the mat in frustration that he hasn’t put away Stevens yanks his fellow Texan up and slings him into the corner and sits him on the top turnbuckle.
Joe Hoffman: Oh god…..this isn’t necessary!
Benny Newell: Yes it is!
Dan Ryan puts the unconscious Scott Stevens across his shoulders and goes to the middle rope before delivering a ring shaking Burning Hammer.
Joe Hoffman: Dan Ryan just delivered the Headliner to Stevens.
Benny Newell: He will be headlining at the ER tonight! DRINK!
Dan Ryan goes for a cover.
One.
Two.
Three.
NO!
Dan Ryan tosses Stevens’ leg onto the bottom rope to break the count and Boettcher is going ballistic.
Dan Ryan: You can’t see his foot on the bottom rope? You suck!
Benny Newell: Damn right he fucking sucks!
Dan Ryan pulls the lifeless Stevens to the center of the ring and the ICON champion mounts Stevens and begins to rain down elbows and each blow is more sickening than the last as blood begins to fly out of the nose and mouth of the former world champion causing Boettcher to call for the bell.
Ding. Ding. Ding.
Bryan McVay: And your winner by Referee Stoppage, he is…. THE HIGH OCTANE WRESTLING ICON CHAMPION! DAN! RYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!
A sadistic smile forms over the ICON champion’s face as he pulls his arm away from Matt Boettcher and snatches his title away as well before placing a boot on Stevens’ chest and raising the title high into the air.
Joe Hoffman: Dan Ryan just made a statement here tonight as he…….
Hoffman is cut off mid-sentence as Dan Ryan suddenly drops his championship and yanks Stevens up and high into the air before running towards the edge and tossing Stevens over the ring with a running Humility Bomb. The audience members try to get out of the way as Scott Stevens comes flying forward, and lucky for them Stevens doesn’t make it that far…..bad news is Stevens’ lower back collides with the top of the security barricade.
Joe Hoffman: Oh…..my…….God.
Benny Newell: I think he just made a statement now Hoffman.
Joe Hoffman: CAN WE GET SOME DOCTORS AND EMTS OUT HERE?!?!?!?
The crowd is in a state of shock as Stevens falls to the ground and medical officials coming running down to ringside as Dan Ryan heads up the stage.
Joe Hoffman: This could be serious Benny. Stevens may be paralyzed from the way his back hit the barricade.
Benny Newell: I’m sure Lee will pimp him out a nice wheelchair if he is.
The medical team wave towards the stage and a gurney team start coming down the ramp and they start to place him on it. Once on the gurney, the medical team start to wheel him up the ramp when the suddenly music hits the PA system
Benny Newell: Oh shit……LETS FUCKING GO!!!!!
Undead hits the PA system and the theme song of the GOD of HOW causes everyone to turn their attention to the top of the stage.
The crowd erupts as we see Lee make his way out from the back….and he obviously has help……….but once people see the help Lee has……they immediately turn on the Chicago native.
Benny Newell: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THIS IS FUCKING GREAT!
Joe Hoffman: We all knew since his injuries at War Games that Lee would need some sort of help navigating and walking around…….but for him to use THIS as a means??
The camera pans back and the viewers on HOTv finally see a full shot of what everyone is reacting to.
The GOD of HOW has a seeing eye dog with a properly colored 97red tag with him.
But its not really a dog.
Instead its a woman…..a woman that somewhat looks familiar but with her on all fours her hair is covering most of her face.
Lee Best: Sit!!!
Lee’s seeing eye “dogs” stops where she is at.
Lee puts his hand up and points down to where he thinks the medical team is at and motions for them to continue towards him.
The GOD of HOW then motions behind him and suddenly his very large bodyguard makes his way out as well from the back. He takes his customary place next to Lee.
Lee motions for the man to bend down and Lee whispers some instructions in his hear.
The bodyguard then jumps into action and walks down and meets the medical staff on the ramp. He pushes them out of the way and begins pushing the stretcher up the ramp and stops it next to Lee.
Lee Best: Stevens, can you hear me? Are you ok?
GOD asks and the Texan slowly raises his arm and gives the thumbs up bringing a joyous ruckus throughout the Best Arena.
Joe Hoffman: Lee Best showing compassion which is a rarity, but nice thing to see.
Lee pats the shoulder of Stevens again as he hears the crowd cheering.
Lee Best: Your silence tells me that you aren’t and that is why I must help you help yourself…..Scott Stevens…..YOU ARE FUCKING FIRED!!!!!
Stevens’ arm collapses onto his chest as a thunderous round of boos hit the arena.
Joe Hoffman: WHAT THE HECK!?!?!? REALLY?!?!?!
Benny Newell: I THINK I JUST NUT MYSELF HOFFMAN! CHRISTMAS REALLY CAME EARLY THIS YEAR! STEVENS IS SERIOUSLY HURT AND HE GOT FIRED! JOY TO THE FUCKING WORLD!
Lee Best: Get this Fisher Price piece of shit out of my arena!
Lee pulls on his leash and the seeing eye “dog” turns and leads Lee away.
As Lee disappears behind the curtain, the camera turns back towards the stretcher, and we see Lee’s bodyguard smiling down at the newly unemployed Scott Stevens.
Terror comes over the face of Stevens as we see the bodyguard bend down and with one quick and swift motion, he tips the stretcher over, and Stevens falls face first on the steel.
The crowd is in shock as the bodyguard slowly makes his way back to the back as the medical team struggles to flip the stretch over and care for Stevens.
Joe Hoffman: I cannot believe what we have just witnessed……commercial……take us to a damn commercial break already.
The production team does just that as we see a final image of a bloody and broken Scott Stevens lying prone on the entrance ramp as the medical team had to cut him loose from the stretcher after being unable to flip it back over.
