The Match:
Vader is introduced first. He comes down the aisle with his music blaring! Jim Cornette is with him. The German fans seem to HATE Vader, but the big mastedon doesn't care. He gets into the ring as his red lights flick on and off.The fans go wild as the Ultimate Warrior is then introduced! He comes out with Brutus following him. He jobs down and seems focused! When he slides into the ring, Vader ATTACKS HIM BEFORE THE BELL!!!
Vader unloads on him with body shots, rocking the Warrior's body! The LOD watch around, but see no one else.
Vader continues to hammer on the Warrior, until Ultimate drops down... AND CHOP BLOCKS VADER'S LEG!!! Vader drops down to one knee... and the Warrior kicks him in the face! The Warrior then starts to stomp the right knee, the one that was chop blocked... over and over again!!!
JR: The Warrior has him schooled! That's the leg Jarrett was working on if I'm not mistaken.
Sarah: Well... speak of Jarrett.... and he appears!
Double J walks down the aisle, holding his I/C belt. He gets to the ring where he gets the notice of Jim Cornette. Jeff points down at his I/C belt and laughs at Cornette. Cornette's face turns red with anger. The LOD watch Jarrett carefully. Hawk says something to Shadow, who simply nods.
The Warrior pulls up Vader and tries to slam him down on the leg... but Vader is too heavy it seems! Vader blocks... then flips the Warrior up and over... TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!!! Vader backs up to the second rope... ABDOMINAL SPLASH!!!
JR: THE WARRIOR WILL FEEL THAT IN THE MORNING!
Vader tosses the Warrior into the corner... runs at him.... AVALANCHE.....
THE WARRIOR GETS HIS BOOT UP!!! Both men fall into the ropes, catching their breath. Vader recovers quicker... and POWERBOMBS THE WARRIOR!!! As the Warrior tries to get up... he is helped up by Vader... into a BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX!!!
The big man then goes to the corner, looking down at Jarrett, who holds his gold belt. Vader howls out in anger... then leaps back.... VADER BOMB!!!! Vader hooks the leg, looking out at Jarrett..... 1... 2....
KICKOUT!
Sarah: He kicked out!
JR: I can't believe it! NOW LOOK! It's the Enforcers! Arn... and Benoit! The LOD might have to worry about this!
Arn and Benoit come down and start circling around the ring. The LOD slowly follow, holding their night-sticks. Animal looks to Shadow, who nods back.
Vader picks up the Warrior... and football tackles him down! Vader bounces off the ropes... the Warrior rolls towards him, rising up... and TRIPPING VADER!! The Warrior stands up, pumping his arms in the air, signalling for the press slam!!! THE FANS START TO RISE UP, STOMPING THEIR FEET....
