Joe Hoffman: Well up next we’ve got the returning Noah Hanson vs Scott Stevens in which case should prove to be another great match!
Benny Newell: You mean the returning nobody Hanson vs the returning after a month lonesome loser in Stevens? That’s how I interpret that buddy. More like a snooze match to me. I mean, why is Noah Hanson even back anyway? Didn’t he learn his lesson the first time?
Joe Hoffman: I don’t know, but he’s back now and hopefully this run can get Noah the respect he deserves. He is vastly underrated in my opinion.
Benny Newell: Well myself leading the charge on this opinion, with the rest of the roster, Hanson is wasting his time and he can’t be rated based off the shit I’ve seen from him!
Noah Hanson is already in the ring and awaiting Stevens arrival to the ring.
The lights in the arena go pitch black, as red lasers and spotlights light up the area as a guitar begins.
♫ “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked” by Cage the Elephant♫
The video screen lights up and flashes across the screen a Texas flag, with the words, “Texas Born. Texas Bred.” “Texas Forever.“ branded into the flag. The cheers that had once filled the arena quickly turn into jeers. The crowd knows 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 is a giant hand that slowly closes into a FIST as letters slowly appear and form a message and that message reads in bold, capitalized letters… SCOTT STEVENS.
Bryan McVay: From The Great State of Texas, weighing in at 256 pounds…SCOTT! STEEEEEEEVEEEEEEEENS!
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 up his right fist high into the air. As Stevens makes his way down the ramp he just smirks and shakes his head at the vocal bashers.
Stevens slowly makes his way around the ring talking smack and flipping off the crowd 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 the two unofficial state birds of Texas before dropping to the canvas as a loud chant erupts from the crowd.
“FUCK YOU, STEVENS!” Clap x5
The Angry Texan shows no emotion as he stretches out on the ropes waiting for the bell to ring.
The bell rings as Stevens and Hanson meet each other in the center of the ring. Despite past differences, Stevens extends his hand out towards Noah and Noah looks on for a few minutes of hesitation before accepting as the two shake hands. The two circle around each other before locking up in a test of strength. Hanson is able to overpower Stevens after a few moments and strikes Stevens in the midsection as he’s able to grab Stevens and flip him over into a cradle suplex quickly.

Kickout
Joe Hoffman: Great mutual respect to start off this match by Noah and Scott. Always nice to see some respect as it’s rarely seen in HOW anymore.
Benny Newell: Respect?! Stevens just doesn’t want to be seen anymore of a loser than he already is…which is fucking impossible. Once a lonesome loser, still a lonesome loser…ALWAYS a lonesome loser!
Stevens quickly kicks out as Noah tries to pull a fast one on Stevens. Stevens gets to his feet and smiles sarcastically, almost giving Noah credit for keeping Stevens on his feet. Noah smiles briefly, but continues his offense as he begins to unload on Stevens with a few straight rights to the face. Noah, in his return match in HOW, is keeping this match fast paced as he keeps the offense on his side.
Noah continues to unload into Stevens before he whips Stevens into the corner turnbuckle. As Stevens is backed into a corner, literally, Hanson continues, but changes up the tempo of the match by now hitting Stevens with some left and right combos before sending an overpowering right jab straight to Stevens’ chin. Noah then goes for a clothesline and connects with Stevens as Stevens falls forward on his face into the mat. Hanson once again goes for the cover.

Kickout
Joe Hoffman: And Noah keeps on dictating the pace of this match and keeping Stevens on the tip of his toes! Noah looks actually excited to be back in a HOW ring as you can clearly see by the communication of his offense!
Benny Newell: Oh please…you, along with this match, is starting to make me sick! How long do you think before Noah goes back into irrelevancy again? How long do you think it will take for people to forget about Stevens even being here after tonight? Stevens will disappear for two months after tonight and hopefully the fucker won’t be back. Maybe both these guys can do me and all of HOW a favor by killing each other in the ring!
Noah is quick to get back to his feet as he bounces off the ropes and attempts to drop an elbow into the face of Stevens, but Stevens is able to move out of the way and pop back to his feet. Stevens ricochets off the ropes and comes back at Hanson, who gets to his feet just in time for Stevens to take him down to the mat with a lou thez press, and begins to unleash mounted punches into Hanson. This continues for a few moments, before Hanson all of a sudden reverses Stevens momentum and begins to unleash some mounted punches of his own. The two dabble back and forth as Stevens reverses again, this time starts to get more aggressive. The referee has to warn both men as they finally stop and get back to their feet. Hanson and Stevens look on and nod their heads as they continue to show respect for the others passion in the ring with the match.
Joe Hoffman: This match has turned into a straight up fight, but both men continue to show respect for one another.
Benny Newell: I swear to god if all this match is gonna be is punching each other in the face, I will fucking vomit all over my shit!
Hanson and Stevens lock back up again as they continue their volley of respect and passion in this match. Hanson attempts to use the same strategy he implored in the opening bout of this match by attempting to use the test of strength again, but Stevens surprises him this time as he delivers a knee to the chest before striking a remember the Alamo with a swift superkick that has Noah dazed and sent to the mat on his knee. Stevens takes advantage of Noah’s daze and runs at him landing a curb stomp that sends Hanson down to the mat. Stevens drops down for a cover.

THR—Kickout!
Joe Hoffman: Oh, a close three count by Stevens! Noah just barely is able to kick out as he is able to come to his senses!
Benny Newell: Is it fucking possible to wish both these fuckers to lose? I mean, it’s almost a lose lose situation for me because I don’t give a fuck about either one of these men!
Stevens realizes how close he came right there and can’t believe he almost had the match won right there. With that strategy, Stevens attempts to look for the closing of the match by stalking Hanson as he slowly is able to get back to his feet. As Hanson gets to his feet, Stevens tries and surprises Hanson by going for the Toxic Sting. Hanson comes to his senses quickly and prevents Stevens from getting the strike on him. Hanson grabs Stevens and lifts Stevens up in the air as he is able to land a knee strike straight to the back of Stevens, stunning him in the process. Hanson then grabs Stevens by the back of the neck and sends Stevens face first onto the top turnbuckle rung, sending Stevens to the ground on his back. Stevens is dazed and Noah takes advantage by heading to the top rope quickly and dives off landing a perfect ladykiller on Stevens.
Joe Hoffman: Holy crap I don’t think Stevens knows what hit him!
Benny Newell: Oh fuck…my worst fears are coming true!! WHY?!
For good measure, Hanson ricochets off the ropes and is able to deliver an elbow drop on Stevens before picking him up and hitting a miraculous DDT sending Stevens buzzed even further by rolling Stevens up into a roll up locking Stevens shoulders into the mat.

Benny Newell: Son of a bitch! I don’t care if that was creative or not…I can’t believe Noah scored the pinfall and won his return match in HOW!!
Stevens can’t believe it as Hanson’s hand is raised high in the air! He looks down at Stevens who is still in shock that he lost the match. Hanson waits for a few moments before extending his hand down helping Stevens back to his feet in which case Stevens finally accepts. The two shake hands as Noah nods his head before exiting the ring and heading to the back.
Joe Hoffman: It doesn’t matter how you feel about this match, Benny, that was a great show of respect by Hanson and Stevens. Hell of a bout!
