Bret the Hitman Hart
w/Jim the Anvil Neidhart, Brutus Beefcake and the Ultimate Warrior
vs.
Stevie Ray
w/Emperor Eddie Gilbert & Booker T.

The Match:
The Hart Foundation music starts to play as pink and white lights move across the arena. Coming out first is Brutus and the Warrior. They come down to the ring. Out of the back comes the Hitman Bret Hart, and someone dressed up in a calgary Hitmen's goalie uniform complete with hockey stick. The man is completly padded from head to ankle, he is wearing a face mask so his face is hidden, and normal wrestling shows. It must be the Anvil? As Bret gets to ringside he slides in and plays to the fans. The Anvil moves toward the announcer's table hitting the hockey stick on the ground. Bret slides out of the ring and gives his sunglasses to a young girl at ringside who starts jumping up and down and screaming. The Anvil has moved to infront of the announcers.

Anvil's voice (very muffled) Hey there Pillbox, and Plebian, I figured the football uniform was not enough last time so I upgraded. And if this is not enough to keep your slimmy asses out of the ring well I will simply have to go further. But for right now sit back and relax you two, and I would reccomend for this match, calling it straight and fair. This stick is itching to hack at someone. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Pillman: The MASK is an improvement! And don't worry you bloated buffoon, we want you two to make it to WrestleMania! Drunk Foundation!

Bret slides back into the ring and is ready to wrestle.

King: Before we get the Heat's introduction here, I'd like to send out my sympathies to the entire Hart Family. Yep, Stuf Hart had yet ANOTHER birthday today! hahahaha!

'Turn This Mutha Out' starts to JAM from the speakers! Fireworks explode overhead! The lights dim a bit! The music continues to play! The fans look around... but no Heat! Bret walks to the edge of the ring and looks up the aisle. But they do not come through! The fans and announcers are looking around!

Pillman: What's going on?

Publican: Probably another Mega Power attack!

Pillman: Just give them a second! They'll come out!

King: What does this match mean, anyway? It's not like their singles rankings are going to move up!

Pillman: Simple King. The Hitman's got a death wish! He wants to go through all of the Empire members. If he's not careful, Stevie Ray could put a stop to that right here and now!

Heart Attack: If he shows up!

The music continues to jam! Brutus and the Warrior start looking nervously around. Who KNOWS where they'll show up! The Anvil points with his hockey stick toward Pillman in a threatening manner. Pillman shrugs back at him.

Then... through the curtains... it's Jim Ross?!? He has concerning look on his face.

JR:Ladies and gentlemen,Bret Hart,we have to aplologize as we got report that Stevie Ray is NOT here!Unfortunatelly,from report we got,we find out that both members of Harlem Heat were late to the plane for LA and they aren't here but in New York.So,we apologize,there is gonna be no match! The winner of this match,by forfeit,Bret "Hitman" Hart!!!

(Bret's music goes on. The Hitman looks disappointed. The ref raises his hand, but Bret puts it back down.)

Suddenly the music goes off and big screen in arena becomes black.

JR:Wait a minute,I think we have both members of Heat live from New York!

(screen goes on,we see Booker and Stevie sitting in their room both wearing jeans and T-shirts.It's kinda blurry and colors are weird.Stevie looks mad)

Stevie Ray:(shouting like he's nutz)Bret Hart SUCKA!!!I wonder how many nights did you beg God SUCKA to make somtn like that happen!!!Das right,punk,you did win this match by forfeit,but don't you even think for one second that I'm through with you!We were late to plane and that saved your sorry @ss!!!But that ain't it!!!After we get through with Road Dummies,we'll have a rematch and boy am I gonna carve you up,loser!!!

Booker T:As we ain't in LA,our interview with Coolio has been canceled so I guess all you SUCKAS will get his interview at WrestleMania!!!

Stevie Ray:Remember this Bret Hart!!!You did win that match...cause I wasn't there...but we'll have one on one rematch after WrestleMania and I'll make sure I'll be there to beat the living crap outta you that is left Hitman!!!And das da bottom line!!!

(screen sudddenly shuts off.After while Bret's music comes on again. And dropping down from the rafters behind the Hitman... IT'S STING! He's repelling down! The Anvil looks around, but his vision is slighly cut off from the mask! Bret doesn't see Sting in time... REVERSE DDT!!! Sting repels back up as Benoit and Anderson charge down the aisle with chairs!!!!

The Warrior turns.... AND DOUBLE CLOTHESLINES BOTH ENFORCERS!!!! The Warrior pulls up Anderson... GORILLA PRESS SLAM!!! Benoit tries to roll away... but the Warrior grabs him... GORILLA PRESS SLAM!!!! The Enforcer's retreat! The Anvil rolls into the ring... but Sting has repelled up out of range. The Anvil helps up the Hitman, who is holding his head. The Warrior and Beefcake watch closely, taking up a defensive position... but the Enforcer's retreat and disappear.

The Anvil flips up his hockey mask...then removes the gear.....
