The Brawl to Settle it all: Part 1 muscle_punk

**HW Title Match: Rob Vs Cody**

After the great four corners MW match and the MW title match, the TW fans were really pumped. The four corners match had been an unexpected addition to the night's already action packed card.

After the MW Title match there was a break in the action.

The audience needed time to accept Frank's loss of the MW Jacket to a LW wrestler.

They knew the next match would and could result in another title change for TW.

The TW arena was packed to the rafters for tonight's main event. It was the long awaited HW Title match that featured the new Super Stud Rob versus the current TW HW Champ Cody. This match had been hyped all week long.

Among the spectators were cheerleaders from the local high school, the teen's parents and friends as well as their fellow peers in TW.The Commissioners were also seated ringside. They had settled more then one debate over this upcoming awesome HW battle.

They knew Rob was probably the least popular HW in TW, but he had earned his title shoot. Now after only a few weeks in the league he was getting it. But his tactics of how he had advanced were sometimes in question. In thirty short minutes all doubt would either be cast aside, or Cody would walk out with the title.Rob had taken every tough challenge thrown his way in the heavy weight division. He had whipped them all one on one, with the exception of Pat, and he did avenge that loss.

As Rob sat in the locker room, he was poised and confident that thirty minutes from now he would be the NEW TW HW Champ. Rob still did not know the stipulations that Cody had added to the contract.

Rob was a good-looking musclestud. He was 18 years old, stood 6'2 and weighed 235 pounds. Rob was a solid slab of rock hard muscle. His biceps measured 19" flexed and his powerful body rippled at his slightest movement. He looked to be invincible. Some of the other HW wrestlers who had fought him, had made the same claim. But Rob lacked both experience and ring savvy.

Rob's nickname among the other wrestlers was "Super Rob or Super Stud." But none dared to say it to his face.

His opponent for tonight's match, Cody was also 18 years old and in phenomenal shape. Cody was a buff weightlifter and body builder and no stranger to hard fought wrestling matches. Cody stood 6' and weighed 209 pounds. His biceps measured 18 ˝ inches and he could bench press 400 plus pounds.

Cody had been an outstanding HW wrestler in junior high and high school. But tonight's match would be anything but high school wrestling. Cody knew this would be a true test of his strength and ability.

Both teens knew this would not be an easy match. Cody wanted to retain his jacket, Rob wanted to prove once and for all he was the best there had ever been in TW.

Rob had wanted a shot at Cody since he had joined TW. But like everyone else he had to earn it. Tonight he was getting his shot at the title.

As both teens waited in separate locker rooms, both thought about their strategy. Both knew they would have to be on top of their game to win this two out of three fall match. Both knew in wrestling there were no time outs, and it was an individual effort.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE"

The audience stood to their feet as the announcer began his spiel. Most present wanted to see the Musclestud lose his bid for the HW Title jacket.

As they heard the ring announcer's spiel, both Cody and Rob moved towards the walkway to the ring.

"FIRST MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING IS THE CHALLENGER. HE STANDS 6'2, AND WEIGHS 235 POUNDS. HE IS ROB."

The young women went crazy as the good looking super stud sauntered to the ring clad in light blue trunks that set off his deeply tanned torso.

The cheerleaders led by Lori, shouted loud and strong as Rob made his way down the aisle and to the ring.

The only one missing ringside was

The only one missing ringside was Ashley. She had been forbidden access to the match.

They held up signs that said, ""Squash the Chump."" ""Rob, NEW TW HW CHAMP"" among others.

Cody could hear the boisterous cheering as he waited back stage to be introduced.

As he waited he felt a strange feeling of apprehension in his gut.

Rob's physique looked awesome, powerful. He looked like he could whip anyone in the arena.

Rob jumped over the top rope and stood center ring posing and strutting his stuff for his female admirers.

Many of the young ladies blew kisses to the super stud they hoped would be the NEW CHAMP.

Rob ate the attention up. He loved strutting his stuff and showing off his muscles to the young ladies.

"NOW MAKING HIS WAY DOWN THE AISLE, THE REIGNING TW HW CHAMP. HE STANDS 6' AND WEIGHED IN AT 209 POUNDS. HE IS CODY."The rafters resounded with the cheers for the current reigning HW champ. As Cody approached the ring his eyes bore into the super stud.

Cody had his own cheering section. Many of his friends from school and his parents were present to see him make this title defense, as well as many local young ladies. Cody had quite a following.

Rob watched as Cody entered the ring. He thought Cody looked even buffer and tougher then he had a week ago.

Cody was clad in a pair of light green trunks. His golden brown body was accented by the color. Cody looked mean and ready for a hard fought fight.

The referee called the two buff grapplers to the center of the ring.

The announcer continued. "THIS MATCH IS TWO OUT OF THREE FALLS, PIN FALL OR SUBMISSION. THERE WILL BE A TWO MINUTE BREAK BETWEEN FALLS. IF BOTH WRESTLERS ARE COUNTED OUT AND UNABLE TO CONTINUE, THEY WILL BE GIVEN A FIVE MINUTE BREAK AND THE MATCH WILL RESUME."

Cody smiled evilly as the rules were announced. This was his match and he got to choose the way it would be fought. Being the champ had its advantages at times. Little did he know he had played right into Rob's hands.

Rob smirked as the number of falls and the rest period times were announced.

Rob knew two minutes would never be enough time for Cody to recover from his power moves or his brutal submission holds. Rob knew the title was within his grasp.

The referee checked both fighters over. He knew neither guy needed weapons or foreign objects to win a match, but rules were rules.

Rob and Cody moved to their corners and awaited the bell. There were no handshakes, they just backed to their corners. Both were ready to fight.

As the bell sounded both teens charged each other. They came to grips in a collar and elbow lock up. Cody felt the muscle power emanating from Rob's powerfully muscled upper body. Cody grunted as he was forced back to the ropes.

Rob started to break cleanly, than shot a straight right hand to Cody's ripped abs. Cody's powerful abdominals deflected the hard punch.

Cody retaliated with a forearm to the side of Rob's head. As Rob's head snapped back, Cody drove his knee to the powerful set of eight-pack abs.

Rob did not even grunt as Cody's knee lift connected. Instead he gripped Cody's head and flipped him to the mat. Rob quickly knee dropped Cody's chest.

Cody grunted as the knee slammed hard to his chest and ribs.

Rob lifted Cody from the mat and flung him to the ropes. Cody was met with a super kick to his gut as he recoiled. Cody sucked wind as he dropped to his knees. He could not believe the force behind the super kick.

Rob reached down and gripped Cody around the waist. Rob flung the 209 pound Cody over his shoulders in a back breaker. Rob was going for an early submission.

Cody yelled out as he felt this super stud's power. His back was screaming.

The ref asked Cody if he wanted to submit, but it was far too early for the champ to just give up.

Cody struggled to take the pain.

Rob held Cody in the back breaker for a full two minutes. When Cody would not give up, Rob surged forward and power bombed Cody to the mat.

Cody arched up, his hands going to his aching back. Rob stomped his abs, hard. Cody fell back to the mat as his bridge was broken.

Rob rolled Cody to his stomach and went to work on the Champ's weakened back.

Rob dropped down on Cody's lower back with both knees, then cinched in a camel clutch. Cody grunted as he felt the awesome muscle power of Rob's 19" guns.

Rob had his fingers locked tight under Cody's chin.

Cody felt like Rob was trying to sever his head from his shoulders as the muscle man cranked on the pressure.

The audience was dead silent as Rob dominated their champ. So far Cody had not shown any offense or defense to the powerful stud's holds.

Cody was struggling as he felt the pain radiating down his back. He knew he had to break the hold or submit, and he would not submit.

Cody took in a deep breath and started to muscle up to his knees. Rob felt Cody start to rise and wrapped his legs around the champ's midsection. Rob gave a mighty squeeze and powered Cody back down to the mat.

Cody grunted loudly as Rob crushed his abdominals in his powerful legs and cranked on his head and neck with his brutal camel clutch.

Cody, a veteran wrestler always knew where he was in the ring at all times. He finally reached out and gripped the bottom rope, forcing Rob to break the hold. Rob broke the hold, stood to his feet and stomped down hard into Cody's back.

Cody rolled to the corner. His back was screaming from the hard abuse of the muscleteen.

Cody started to pull himself up with the aide of the ring ropes. Rob charged forward and landed a perfect front kick to Cody's gut. Cody dropped back to the mat on his ass. Rob stepped back and laid the boots to Cody's ripped torso. The ref started his count.

At the count of four, Rob backed off.

Cody sat in the corner dazed and winded. He was shocked by the hard beating he was taking.

As he tried to catch his breath, the audience cheered him on.

The cheerleaders were yelling loud and strong for Rob to go for a submission on the weakened champ.

Cody struggled to his feet. Rob charged forward. Cody had both hands on the rope for support. He watched as Rob charged. Cody gripped the ropes and used them for leverage. As Rob charged into the corner, Cody leaped up. Rob hit the turnbuckle corner post hard. Cody wrapped his legs around Rob and flipped him out of the corner. Cody came down on top of the musclestud. Cody maintained his vise like body scissors.

Cody bore down on Rob's abs, but realized he was doing little damage. He released the hold and stood to his feet. He hit the ropes and dropped and elbow to Rob's stomach. Rob grunted, but reached up and hurled Cody from his torso.

Both boys were on their feet and facing each other.

Cody hit the ropes and charged Rob going for a shoulder block. Rob caught the champ in mid air and maneuvered him into a perfect back breaker. Cody yelled out as his back was slammed over Rob's knees.

Rob lifted Cody back up and back broke the champ a second time.

Cody's back throbbed with pain as he felt Rob's awesome power.

Rob let Cody roll to the mat. He reached down and gripped Cody by the nape of the neck. He hurled the weakened champ to the ropes. As Cody came off, Rob locked on his finisher bearhug. His powerful biceps bulged as he powered his arms under Cody's rib cage and cut off his ability to draw a breath.

Rob's powerful guns squeezed down on Cody's already injured back. When he heard Cody whish out his air, he knew he had him. Rob put everything he had into squeezing the breath out of the HW Champ.

Cody had never felt such awesome power. His head dropped submissively to Rob's shoulder. Rob smiled deviously as he squeezed the breath and the fight out of the Champ.

Cody knew if he did not submit, Rob would squeeze him unconscious and have an easy second fall pin. Cody knew two minutes would not be enough time for him to recover if he was out.

Cody quickly called out his submission. He had to relieve the brutal pressure on his back.

"I submit." Cody said through panting breaths.

Rob released the bearhug and let the winded, beaten champ fall to the mat. Rob strode to his corner, cocky and confident that he would soon be the NEW TW champ.

Lori led the high school cheerleaders in a rousing chant for Rob the Muscleboy.

Dane watched as Cody struggled to his feet. He was starting to feel a twinge of guilt. He had wanted to pay Cody back for their tag team loss, but not in this fashion. But what was done was done.

Cody struggled to his feet and leaned over the ropes trying to compose himself during the short two minute respite.

Rob was dancing around in his corner and flirting with the cheerleaders. He knew he had the TW Chump whipped. He would concentrate his attack all out on Cody's weakened back. Then he would make the Chump scream out his next submission. Rob could taste victory and it tasted sweet.

Rob knew once he had the title jacket NO ONE could strip it from him. He felt invincible.

Cody just hung over the ropes trying to compose himself. He knew the two minutes was working now to his disadvantage.

As he leaned over the ropes he noticed a few of the heavy weight wrestlers cheering him on.

The bell sounded to start the second fall.

Rob bound to the center of the ring. Cody was cautious and leery to lock up with the muscleboy.

But Cody was also pissed. He had let himself be intimidated by Rob's muscles. That would not happen this time around.

The two studs went for a lock up. Cody struck first blood with a side headlock. He cinched it in tightly and poured on the power. Rob grunted as he felt Cody's 18 ˝" guns encircle his head and bear down.

Rob went to shoot an elbow to Cody's gut but Cody moved and turned the headlock into a fast hard neck breaker. Rob felt his neck snapped hard as Cody dropped to the mat.

Cody quickly stood to his feet. Before Rob could recover fully, Cody launched a perfect front kick to Rob's sternum.Rob rolled across the ring and under the bottom rope to break Cody's momentum.

Rob took a deep breath as he walked around the ring. Cody had caught him off guard and gotten in a couple of lucky shots. Rob slowly climbed back towards the ring.As his hands hit the top rope, Cody charged. He gripped Rob's head and snap mared the muscleboy over the top rope. Cody was done fooling around.

Cody slipped behind Rob and locked his arms. He pulled them straight back while placing his foot in the center of Rob's back. Cody then applied a double arm wringer. Rob grunted for the second time in the match as he felt his big arms taking a working over.

Cody removed his foot from Rob's back, then slammed it back to the same spot. Rob pitched forward face down on the mat. Cody stood on the stud's back as he stretched and tortured his big muscled arms.

Cody released Rob's arms and stepped from his back. Just as quickly Cody landed a double knee drop to the small of Rob's back.

As Cody took the upper hand, the cheerleaders started their chant for their fallen warrior.

Cody kept Rob on his stomach and went to work on his Herculean legs. Cody gripped Rob's right leg, while standing on his knee joint. He lifted the leg and powered the knee hard into the mat.

This time Rob actually let out a slight yell. He felt his knee compress into the mat.

Cody remained standing on the back of Rob's knee and twisted the stud's leg in ways it was never meant to move.

Rob pounded the mat with his fists as Cody worked his leg over. Cody dropped the right leg and went to work on the left, repeating the same sequence of maneuvers.

Cody then rolled Rob to his back and went for figure four leg lock.

Rob knew what Cody was softening him up for and resisted. As Cody bent down to lock his legs, Rob sent a hard fist to the side of his head. Cody staggered back to the ropes from the force of the blow. Rob quickly rolled to his stomach and tried to get to his feet.

Cody charged forward and swept Rob's legs. The muscleboy stumbled to the mat. Cody stomped Rob's ripped abs.

This time he heard a satisfying grunt as Rob's abs did not absorb the full blow.

Cody rolled Rob to his stomach and locked on a Boston crab. Cody sat way up on Rob's back and cinched in the hold.

Rob yelled out as his legs were again tortured.

Rob was sweating and breathing hard as Cody took control of the second fall. Rob tried to get up on his elbows, but Cody stood and dropped his butt to Rob's back, forcing the super stud back to the mat.

Cody leaned back applying more pressure to Rob's back and legs. Rob took advantage. He hooked and arm around Cody's throat and locked on a choke hold. Cody released his Boston crab to fight off Rob's killer grip on his throat. Rob rolled Cody to his back and slammed his other fist to the side of Cody's head.

Cody was stunned.

Rob quickly released the choke hold and lifted Cody from the mat. He tossed him chest first to the ropes. As Cody bounced off, Rob slammed a beefy forearm to the center of his back.

Cody staggered towards the ropes and fell to the arena floor. Cody was on his hands and knees trying to get his bearings. Rob leapt from the ring apron and drove an axe handle blow to Cody's lower back.

Cody collapsed to the matted floor in agony.

The ref had started his ten count and was up to three. Rob quickly dove back in the ring and then slithered back out. He drug Cody to his feet and went to hurl him back first into the ring barrier.

Cody somehow found the strength to plant his legs and reverse the move. Rob hit the steel barricade chest first and fell to the matted floor.

Cody moved towards the ring to break the ref's count. Cody moved back towards the down stud. Cody hooked Rob's head and bull dogged him to the matted arena floor.

Rob felt his head being driven hard to the floor. He saw stars as Cody's bulk drove him down.

Again Cody broke the ref's count. Cody moved back towards Rob and drug the winded and dazed stud towards the ring. Cody powered Rob to the ring apron back first. Rob groaned as his back now took a hard slam. Cody then lifted Rob over his shoulders and power bombed him to the floor. Rob arched up in agony.

Cody dropped to his knees after the power bomb as the pain radiated through his back and down his legs.

Cody slipped into the ring.

Cody quickly slipped back out and drug a winded Rob to the ring apron and rolled him back under the bottom ropes.

Cody drug the super stud to his feet and flung him to the ropes. As Rob recoiled Cody slapped on a sleeper hold in the center of the ring.

Rob gasped as he felt the 18 ˝" biceps encircle his head and throat in a tightly applied sleeper. Rob's hands clawed at Cody's arms but to no avail.

Rob felt himself going down for the count.

Rob had practiced this move with Dane before and how to break the hold. Rob started to backpedal towards the corner.

Cody tried to stop him, but Rob's legs, even with the working over they had taken were still strong.

Cody felt his back impact with the ring post. Rob then slammed two hard elbows to Cody's belly.

Cody sucked wind as his sleeper hold loosened. Rob took a gulp of air and slammed another hard elbow to Cody's gut. Cody staggered back to the corner. He tried to grip Rob's arms to stop the brutal elbows.

Rob turned and fired two hard fists to Cody's stomach. Cody dropped to his knees.

As Rob bent down to lift Cody to his feet, Cody shot a chop to the back of Rob's kneecap. Rob yelled out and staggered away from the downed Champ.

Cody slowly got to his feet. He slipped behind the muscle stud and gripped his waist. Before Rob could react Cody lifted in and performed an atomic drop.

Rob stumbled into the ropes as the pain ran up and down his previously worked over legs. Cody followed him and slammed a brutal double axe handle blow to Rob's lower back. Rob again hit the ropes.

As Rob bounced back towards Cody, Cody turned the stud around and hooked his neck. Cody then dropped to the mat as Rob's neck came crashing down across his muscular shoulder.

Rob was stunned by the neck breaker. He was also pissed. Cody was using moves he had not yet learned to counter.

Rob climbed to all fours. Cody hooked his waist and locked Rob's head in his power quads. Cody gave a mighty yell and lifted the muscle stud up. Cody then dropped Rob to the mat in a brutal pile driver.

Rob felt his head and neck being compressed hard into the mat. His world went black and fuzzed out.

Cody quickly rolled and pinned Rob's shoulders to the mat as he hooked his legs.

The audience counted along with the referee.

"'ONE''

""TWO""

"'Three""

Cody released Rob's legs and stumbled to his corner. He was close to being spent, but he was still on his feet.

The audience cheered loudly as Cody garnered the second fall victory.

The commissioners viewing the match smiled as Cody once again showed why he was the CHAMP.

As Rob lay beaten in the center of the ring, his squad of cheerleaders sat quietly. They could not believe Cody had pulled off a victory in the second fall and now the match came down to one fall for the win.

Cody sat calmly on the ring ropes. He was letting his body relax. He knew the fight was far from over. Rob was tough and could easily mount a comeback.One minute and thirty seconds had passed before Rob even stirred. He rolled to his stomach and tried to crawl to his feet. He was totally spent. He was not used to being the one who got worked over. Cody was more of a challenge then he had expected.

Rob thought back to their NHB after hours match. He had defeated Cody in that match and thought he could defeat him tonight. Rob was learning that private matches did not mirror the main event.

All eyes were on the SUPER STUD as he crawled to the corner and slowly climbed to his feet.

Rob's face no longer bore a cocky expression. He was in shock thinking Cody had defeated him in the second fall.

Rob started to have self-doubts as to if he could handle the muscleboy. No one had ever given him an individual thrashing like Cody had just dished out.

Now he was the one fighting from a disadvantage. He knew Cody would and could exploit his weak points.

Rob was shocked by Cody's ability to take a hard ass whipping and still fight back. Dane and Pat had told him Cody was not one to lie down and submit.

Cody watched Rob. He knew he had the muscleboy right where he wanted him. Rob was on the verge of getting angry, trying to exude his muscle power. Cody knew if he could piss the boy off, he would screw up.

As the bell sounded for the third and final fall, Cody stood poised and confident. Rob looked apprehensive and leery.

The tide of the match had changed.

Cody was fired up as he strode to the center of the ring. He knew he had to strike hard and fast or he could kiss his title good-bye. Cody knew even injured, Rob would be tough to beat.

Rob stepped gingerly from the corner. He knew this was for all the marbles. Success or failure rested on the next few moves.

Rob moved his neck from side to side trying to get his range of motion back. He hurt all over. That also was a new feeling to the Super Stud. He was used to doing the hurting.

Rob who was used to dominating early and quickly in a match now found his muscles a hindrance. He was tired, while Cody looked ready to kick his ass.

Cody made a come on motion to the muscleboy.

Rob's face flashed red as Cody dared taunt him.

Rob charged towards Cody. Cody smiled and side stepped. He leveled the charging stud with a solid clothesline.

Rob dropped backwards to the mat. Rob rolled to his stomach and started to get up. Cody did not hesitate. He hit the ropes and dropped a leg drop across Rob's neck.

Rob yelled out as Cody went to work on his weak spot. Rob rolled to his back to avoid another blow to his injured neck.

Cody rolled Rob to his stomach and locked in a front face lock. He pulled the weakened stud to his feet by the front face lock. Rob grunted and groaned as he felt the pressure on his neck. He wanted to scream out in pain, but would not allow himself to do so.

Rob's fists pounded into Cody's stomach. Cody resisted the blows. The harder Rob tried to punch the harder Cody cranked on the front face lock. Cody was pumped to dish out some punishment.

As he cranked on the front face lock he thought of all the guys Rob had squashed. Now the muscle stud was getting a good dose of whup ass.

Cody just as quickly reversed the font face lock and converted it into another neck breaker.

Rob again yelled out as his neck bore the brunt of the assault. He withered in pain as his hands clutched his neck.

Rob was dazed on the mat.

Cody lifted Rob from the mat and positioned him so they were standing back to back. Cody reached back and applied a reverse chin lock. He leaned forward and pulled Rob from the mat by the chin lock.

Rob's arms flailed at his sides as he tried to take the uncanny pressure to his head and neck.

The practice sessions with Dane and Pat had never prepared him for these moves and holds.

Rob had never been in this tough of a match in his life. No one had ever dominated him before.

Once again Cody dropped to the mat applying a good hard neck breaker. Rob rolled around the mat clutching his head and neck. He was finding out first hand why Dane had wanted him to wait to face Cody. He did not have the experience Cody had in the ring.

Rob was learning a valuable lesson. Muscles did not make one a wrestler.

Cody approached Rob cautiously. He rolled the muscleboy to his stomach and knee dropped his lower back. Cody then cinched in a camel clutch. Rob yelled out as Cody yanked back on his abused neck.

Rob was lying prone with his arms draped over Cody's knees. The stud was breathing hard as other heavy weight wrestlers yelled for Cody to rip his head off.

Bastian and Anton were cheering the loudest, followed by Ryan and Kale.

As much as Dane wanted to cheer Rob on, he was getting a certain joy out of watching Rob get whipped. Rob had cost him his shot at the HW title. Dane tried not to let it bother him, but deep down it did.

Cody's whopping 18 ˝" biceps bulged as he cranked on Rob's neck. Rob was starting to feel light headed as the pain radiated from his neck to his legs.

Pat sat beside Dane and sort of grinned. He had felt Cody's power holds before. Pat knew Cody was tough.

Cody was a smart wrestler. He knew once you had injured an opponent you concentrated your attack on that body part. Cody had been relentless in punishing Rob's neck.

Rob's struggles were becoming less and less. Cody finally released the camel clutch and let Rob drop face first to the mat.

Cody was still leery of trying any high-risk power moves because of his sore back. He did not want to take a chance of blowing this match.

Cody rolled Rob to his back. He dropped down by Rob's head and quickly cinched in a figure four head scissors. Rob immediately felt his neck getting brutalized.

Cody's legs ripped with raw power as he cranked on the pressure. Cody's legs were quite muscular thanks to his body building training. Rob tried to roll, but Cody had him locked up tight in the center of the ring.

Rob could feel himself starting to black out. He clawed frantically at Cody's muscular quads.

Rob pounded his fists against Cody's legs, but his punches had no power. He felt himself getting weaker and weaker as Cody dominated him, like he had dominated so many others.

Rob, was finally tasting the agony of defeat at the hands of the better wrestler.

Cody rolled to his stomach increasing the pressure on Rob's already throbbing neck. Rob thought he would throw up from the pain now radiating through his entire body. He had never felt this kind of pain. He had never been held in submission by this kind of power.

His muscles were useless against this powerfully experienced wrestler. Rob was now struggling to draw a breath. His head felt like it was no longer attached to his body. Finally Rob's struggles ceased completely as Cody's powerful figure four head scissors took Rob to the peaceful place known as LALA land.

When Rob ceased to struggle the referee raised his hands three times. The audience again counted.

"'ONE"'

""TWO"" They shouted out a little louder and stood to their feet.

The uproar got louder with each passing second.

""Three"" They shouted as Rob's hand hit the mat for the third time.

Cody immediately released his potent hold and stood to his feet.

The fans were screaming loudly as the referee raised his hand in victory and handed him the title jacket.

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WINNER OF TWO FALLS OUT OF THREE AND STILL TW HW CHAMPION…CODY."

Even the heavy weight heels were cheering as Cody reigned victorious once again.

Cody looked at Rob, than climbed from the ring. He was sore and bruised. Rob had given him his toughest challenge to date.

Cody knew eventually he would lose the title, but at least when that time came he would lose it to an experienced opponent.

Cody knew the talent in the TW HW division was not to be taken lightly. There were a lot of tough wrestlers in this division. Cody knew any one of them would make a great champ.

Cody was surprised as he entered the locker room and was greeted by many of his fellow HW wrestlers.

Ryan, Lucien, Bastian, Gerrit, Roby, Pat, Mike, Jeff, Kale, Trace and Anton to name a few. All patted him on the back and exchanged high fives. Most of those had felt Rob's power in one way or another.

Cody was glad this was over. He had WON, and he did not have to grant Rob a rematch any time in the near future.

As he headed out of the locker room he passed Dane who was assisting Rob. Dane looked at Cody and gave him an ever so slight nod.

Cody nodded back, but neither teen spoke. There was still too much tension between them. Some day they would have to work it out. Both had done the other wrong, but they had been best friends.

Cody thought maybe Myca was right after all.
