Short Change Hero by The Heavy begins to play through the speakers and the lights in the arena simultaneously dim down. Smoke begins to rise from the top of the stage and appearing on the screen above are the following words;

YOUR HERO, AND MINE

A massive pop ensues as emerging from the back is the self proclaimed "Prince of CHAOS", Mark Storm; who keeps himself composed as he stands at the top of the entrance ramp. He can't help but allow his sadistic signature smirk to appear upon his lips as he closes his eyes and spreads his arms out wide, soaking in the energy that the audience are giving him as they applaud and cheer.

Announcer: From New York, Brooklyn.. weighing in a two hundred and twenty pounds - Your Hero, and Mine.. MARRKKKK STORMMMMMM

He begins his walk down the entrance ramp, with a leather coat completing his attire as he comes down the entrance ramp.

This ain't no place for no hero.
This ain't no place for no better man.
This ain't no place for no hero
To call "home."

At this point, Storm is by the edge of the ring; allowing a smile to embed on his face before he jumps onto the apron and holds onto the ropes, using them to help himself up onto the turnbuckle. He's grinning from ear to ear, soaking in the rest of the cheers coming from the audience, shaking his head sideways as he lowers it, before jumping into the ring.

Taking off his leather coat, he hands it to the ring announcer before walking over to his designated corner and hoisting himself up onto the second ropes, a smirk upon his lips as he holds his arms up; his theme song slowly diminishing.

Cliff Morris - Mark Storm the #1 contender for the ROA Championship.

Logan Acker - Doesn't matter he's got to face the man, Chris Crippler for that ROA Championship, June 24th in Los Angles, at ROA 15 - Power Surge.





Lights turn on and off around the entrance at random intervals as "Bad Moon Rising" by Mourning Ritual starts up, playing over the speakers. The video package on the video shows a book laying on a table, its pages fluttering in an unseen wind, blank. A rough hand appears on screen, laying on the fluttering pages of the book to stop them from moving as the camera pans up then. Alexander is standing there in his black t-shirt and off white slacks, lip synching to the following lyrics to the song..

"Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise"


As he mouths the last line of the song, he turns his head to face the camera and slams the book shut as the lights go off in the arena, the music quietly humming in the background as smoke starts to pour out from the entrance slowly. Lights rise up and flicker around the entrance as the music picks up again, flickering in time with the drums and guitars as Alexander makes his way out from the back, carrying that same book in his hand.

Emily Lyle - From New York City, New York, weighing one hundred and ninety pounds! He is the Endurance Champion! Alexander Devin!

He bears no smile on his face, only a calm resolute look as he stops at the top of the entrance for a second, scanning the crowd before opening his arms wide and walking down the ramp, lowering them as he gets to the ring. He climbs the steps and gets in the ring, walking to the middle and posing the same way that he did at the beginning.

Cliff Morris - Team 1, is all here.

Logan Acker - Now the top team is about to come out!

'Remedy' by Cold plays and he steps through the curtain. At the top of the isle he makes a 'V1' prayer taunt with his nose between the first two fingers.

Emily Lyle - From Sacramento, California, weighing two hundred and thirty four pounds! Stephen Callaway!

He then struts to the ring singing along with his theme.

Cliff Morris - Callaway strutting with a air of confidence.

Logan Acker - He should he was robbed of the Horizon Title if you ask me.

"Let you down" by Seether starts playing in the P.A System, while the lights go out and a spot light appears in front of the curtain.

If I could speak I'd tell you all my fears and deprivations
If I could feel I'd take away your pain
If I could bleed I'd show you all my scars and imperfections
If I could breather I'd hold you in my veins


Erik Scorpion comes out of the curtain giving his back to the ring and the public, extending the right side of his jacket with his right hand.

You've got me feeling like an animal
Beat down in fear and paralyzed
You've got me feeling like I have no other hand to hold
In this assisted suicide


Scorpion turns around, still extending the right side of his jacket with his hand and gives a smirk to the public as a slight laugh escapes him. He then starts walking towards the ring.

So say something beautiful
Say something you're keeping inside
This anticipation
I will only let you down


Scorpion continues his walk towards the ring, but takes a brief pause to look around. As he sees some fans extending his hands, trying to touch him, he ignores them and gets out of the way, avoiding any kind of contact with the fans.

Emily Lyle - From Miami, Florida, weighing two hundred and five pounds! Erik Scorpion!

Say something meaningful
Say something you're trying to hide
This anticipation


Scorpion runs towards the ring and slides, and just as the chorus is nearing the end, while kneeling, he puts his knuckles together, spelling "STAY DOWN"

I will only let you down.


Erik Scorpion gets up and as the song continues he just stands in a corner waiting for the match to start.

Cliff Morris - The #1 contender to the Endurance Title!

Logan Acker - Erik Scorpion has star written all over him, if you don't believe me, just ask him.

The lights in the auditorium switch off as “Symphony of Destruction” by Megadeth begins to play over the PA system, as soon as the guitar rift kicks in, the spotlights goes around the audience and the stage lights illuminate as Chris Crippler steps out from behind the curtain with the ROA Championship belt around his waist.

Emily Lyle - From Colchester, Essex. England, weighing two hundred and fifty six pounds! He is the ROA Champion! Chris Crippler!

He casually strolls down the aisle way, ignoring the fans ringside, stepping up the ring steps to the apron and walking along to the middle. He gazes out at the crowd in attendance with a look of disgust before stepping through the ropes, Chris walks over to the opposite side of the ring, removing the ROA Title belt, he holds the belt, adjusting his wrist tape as he presses his back against the turnbuckles. The referee checks him for foreign objects as his music fades away.
