...KICKOUT! Stardom pops up to his feet... and assists the Machine in doing with with a knee lift. He scoops up Corporate... and SLAMS HIM DOWN!! He pulls the Machine up.... but eats a kick to the face....

The Machine kicks him AGAIN in the face... and Stardom backs away, looking to be in a great deal of pain. The Machine rushes at him... and Stardom leaps up... HURRICARANA!!!!

Stardom then whips the Machine to the ropes... drops down to his back... and as the Machine bounces back, he monkey flips him OVER!!! The Machine... LANDS ON HIS FEET! Stardom kips up... INTO A SNAP KICK!!!

The Badd Boy recoils... but then rushes in... leaps up and plants his feet in the Machine's gut. He rolls back with him, flipping him over and to the mat! Stardom rolls to his feet... and LEGDROPS the Machine. Stardom peels him up... and STUNS him with a snap suplex! The Badd Boy gets up and looks out at Heart Attack, who is watching him from the announcer's table.

JR: He fancies you, Ms. Heart Attack.

Heart Attack: Yeah.

Stardom runs at the prone Machine... and leaps... ABDOMINAL SPLASH... BUT ONTO THE MACHINE'S UPRAISED KNEES!!! The Machine pops up to his feet and leg sweeps down at Stardom. Stardom leaps up over the sweep... and DROP KICKS the Machine down to the mat. He then grabs a leg... and HAMSTRING PULLS IT! The Machine is yanked up to his feet... where Stardom whips him to the corner... and AVALANCHES HIM IN THE CORNER WITH A SPLASH!!!!

The Badd Boy backs away, and lets the Machine fall to the canvas. He climbs up to the top rope.... SHOOTING STAR PRESS!!!!

JR: WHAT A MOVE!!!

Stardom stands over the Machine... and ABDOMINAL SPLASHES HIM!!! The Machine rolls aside... but Stardom STILL hits him! He pulls up the Machine by the back of his head... then dives at him with a running FOREARM that sends the Machine back into the ropes. He bounces back... into a FRANKENSTEINER!!!

Stardom leaves the Machine on the mat as he climbs up, facing the fans. He leaps... MOONSAULT!!! Stardom hits him dead on... but flips back up to his feet... and GOES TO THE TOP AGAIN. The Machine slowly staggers up to a vertical base... looks up... and sees Stardom leaping at him....

TOP ROPE PALANCHA!!!!

JR: The Machine is in a desperate time now! He's got to take control... or it's going to be OVER!

Heart Attack: Uh-uh! This is the WHITE GLOVE TREATMENT!!! A CLEAN VICTORY for BBDS!

Stardom pulls the Machine up to his feet. The Machine throws up a kick into Stardom's face, stunning him. The Machine goes to the corner, and carefully climbs to the top... nearly losing his balance.

JR: Those kicks... the Machine gets so much BEHIND them!

The Machine leaps.... STARDOM CATCHES HIM.... POWERSLAM!!! Stardom pops up over the Machine gesturing down at him... then pointing to the sky. Stardom climbs up to the top rope.... STARFALL LEGDROP!!!! He hooks the leg... 1... 2... 3... !!!!!

Stardom doesn't STOP!!!! HE GOES BACK TO THE TOP!!!

JR: What is he doing?

Sarah: IT'S CALLED PAYBACK TIME!!!

Stardom leaps.... ANOTHER STARFALL!!!! The Machine's body ROCKS under the impact!

Heart Attack: The Machine had this coming! Remember what he did to Stardom last week at Qualify 97!

JR: HE'S GOING BACK TO THE TOP AGAIN!!!

Stardom perches on the top.... A THIRD STARFALL!!!!! The Machine is CRUSHED beneath the impact! His body goes limp.

JR: He got a measure of revenge here tonight!!!

Stardom leaps out of the ring and walks to the announcer's table. He reaches into his tights and pulls out a personal check. He slams it down on the table... scribbles his name across it and throws it to Sarah D. and Jim Ross.

Stardom: That should cover the medical bills and fines for the Machine. Take care of it!

Stardom takes Heart Attack by the hand.... and they leave together.

Howard Finkel: Ladies and gentlemen... your winner by pinfall: The Badd Boy Derrick Stardom!!!

Stardom scoffs at the cheers from some of the fans as he makes his way out. Some paramedics are seen rushing down the aisle to help out the Machine.
