Tag Team Title Match: Corwin's Challenge muscle_punk
Corwin was crushed after his defeat by Jessie in the Lumberjack match. The other team had unmercifully kicked his ass and ruined his back, thus giving Jessie the dominant submission hold.
Corwin wanted revenge against the masterminds of his demise. He wanted to take on HB and Kane.
Drew tried desperately to talk his best friend out of this, but Corwin was determined.
The following morning when Corwin and Drew showed up for practice the ring was laden with Tag Team Chump banners. Accompanying this was a picture of Corwin in his leopard skin trunks and the sign under it said, "The Weakest LINK."
Corwin's resolve broke. He knew who was behind this crap.
Corwin stormed into the locker room. He waltzed right up to HB and Kane.
"That's it. This shit ends now. Let's go. You and your spook partner against me and Drew for the titles."
The locker room fell silent. They knew Corwin was in no shape to wrestle, let alone put the titles up for grabs.Kane stepped forward. His face bore an angry expression. "You got it boy. This time we will whip you ass hard."
Drew had entered the locker room and heard the last part of the conversation. He knew Corwin had let his temper get the better of him.The match was signed and inserted on the special afternoon card.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OUR NEXT MATCH IS A TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH. IT IS ONE FALL. FIRST MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE RING ARE THE CHALLENGERS. THEY WEIGH IN AT A COMBNINED WEIGHT OF 329 POUNDS. THEY ARE HB AND KANE."
Both teens looked buffer then they had before. Both looked ready to rumble. HB had a sign in his hand. All it said was "YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK..GOOD-BYE"
"AND INTRODUCING THEIR OPPONENTS, THE TW TAG TEAM CHAMPS. THEY WEIGH IN AT 327 POUNDS. THEY ARE CORWIN AND DREW."
As soon as the champs hit the ring, Corwin saw the sign. He charged towards HB and Kane. Kane met Corwin center ring and drove a big boot to his stomach. Corwin doubled over and took an axe handle blow across his already injured back. Corwin fell into a heap in the center of the ring.
HB and Kane chuckled. They knew Corwin was not up to this. This would be another easy two on one title change. Just like it had been against Dane.In the champ's corner, Corwin was telling Drew he would start. Drew emphatically said no. He explained to Corwin he was in no shape for this match, let alone to be wrestling.
Corwin backed off. He let Drew start against Kane.Kane did not want Drew, he wanted the smart mouth Corwin. But he and HB could squash Drew a bit first. It was about time someone took these pretty boy to school.
Drew and Kane circled. Drew kept an eye on HB.
The two wrestlers came to grips. Kane felt Drew's power as they struggled in a contest of strength. Drew pulled Kane forward and into his upraised knee. Kane's powerful torso took the hard shot. Drew broke the contest of strength and whipped Kane to the corner. Corwin put his foot through the ropes and drove it hard to Kane's back.
Kane staggered back towards Drew. Drew lifted Kane in a crotch slam and powered him hard to the mat. Kane arched up as he hit and took a powerful stomp to his abs.
Kane grunted. Drew reached down and pulled Kane to his feet. He whipped the teen to the ropes and set for a back body drop.
Kane saw the move and gripped the ropes. He leapt in the air and landed a leg drop across Drew's neck. Drew crashed to the mat face first.
Kane quickly tagged in HB. They moved on Drew and lifted one half of the tag champs into the air. They slammed Drew over their extended knees gut first. Drew rolled to the mat clutching his stomach.
Kane stepped out of the ring as HB took over.
HB showed his real power. He lifted Drew from the mat by his armpits. He slammed Drew back down hard. Drew felt his air rush from his lungs. HB then landed a hard double stomp to his gut. Drew thought he would blow his lunch as his abs caved in under the 170 pounds of HB.
Drew rolled to his stomach. HB dropped down and locked the champ in a full nelson. He pulled Drew from his feet and walked towards Kane.
Kane took the tag and stepped through the ropes. HB held Drew fully exposed. Drew was held out like an offering.
Corwin charged through the ropes. HB and Kane exchanged grins. Kane went to work on Drew's torso.
Power punch after power punch tore into Drew's chest and stomach. The five seconds had passed, but Corwin continued to argue with the ref.
HB and Kane took full advantage. Kane drove a hard knee lift to Drew's balls. Drew cried out as his balls were hammered.
HB finally let Drew go and the champ sunk to his knees. He was clutching his battered torso.
Kane lifted a winded Drew from the mat. He Irish whipped the boy to a neutral corner. Drew hit the turnbuckle back first and sagged in the corner. Kane charged in like a steam engine. His powerful shoulder dug hard to Drew's lower belly. Drew yelled out as his abs gave way.
Drew was sweating and breathing hard. He knew if he tagged Corwin, Corwin would get whipped like a dog. Kane wanted to squash his best friend. But Drew knew he could not take much more of this abuse.
Kane stepped back and drove two solid front kicks to Drew's gut. Drew wheezed and fell forward. Corwin caught his head and bulled dogged the champ to the mat.
Drew was in big trouble.
Kane flipped Drew over and went to lock on a camel clutch. Corwin charged the black boy and leveled him with a clothesline.
HB started through the ropes, but the ref stopped him. Corwin moved in on Kane and kicked the teen in his ribs repeatedly. Corwin's anger was showing through.
Kane was caught off guard and could not fend off the powerful kicks. He rolled under the bottom rope.
The referee finally turned and ushered Corwin out of the ring. As he did HB slipped in and head butted Drew in the groin. Drew rolled into a ball clutching his jewels.
Kane was finally crawling back into the ring. He rolled over and tagged HB.
HB and Kane had been methodically taking Drew apart. They had worked his balls and his gut. Now it was time for his back. HB rolled Drew to his knees and hooked his waist. He lifted the Champ up and into an over the shoulder back breaker. Drew screamed out as his tender abs were stretched and his back contorted.
HB walked over and tagged Kane. Kane scaled the ropes. HB maneuvered Drew out from his body. Kane leapt off the tope rope and drove Drew to the mat with an elbow to his powerful pecs. Drew hit the mat hard. Corwin was in shock as Drew took a hard ass kicking at his expense.
Kane knew Drew was out of it. He lifted the dazed wrestler and walked him towards Corwin. Kane forced the tag, then stepped back.
Corwin did not want to step through the ropes. He was in no condition to wrestle.
Kane made a come on motion. "Come on Chump."
Corwin's face flashed red and he charged Kane. Kane leapt in the air and caught Corwin with a flying head scissors. He whipped the teen to the mat, hard.
Kane released the head scissors and hooked Corwin's arms. He placed Corwin's head between his legs and walked the boy towards HB. Kane tagged HB who climbed to the top ropes and dropped a double axe handle blow to the small of Corwin's back. Corwin cried out as his back once again became the focus of an attack.
Corwin dropped to his knees. HB and Kane lifted the teen and double back broke him.
Corwin felt like his back would give out from the powerful blow.
HB and Kane then double stomped Corwin's gut. Corwin rolled under the bottom rope. He needed a breather.
Drew was barely able to stand in the corner. He was gripping the ring post and trying to stay focused.
HB charged across the ring and tagged Drew with a bionic elbow to his head. Drew stumbled back from the ring and fell to the floor dazed.
Kane had followed Corwin outside the ring. He wanted some hard ass payback for Corwin's racial comment in the locker room.
Corwin was flat on his back. Kane gripped his legs and spread them apart. He drove to hard stomps to Corwin's gut. Corwin gasped for breath.
Kane just smiled and stomped the teen's exposed gut again.
Kane then dropped a headbutt to Corwin's lower belly. Corwin roared in pain as the head butt went low.
Kane released Corwin's legs. He lifted the winded teen from the floor. The ref was still talking to HB. Kane carried a beaten Corwin to the guard rail surrounding the ring and dropped him over it gut first.
Corwin thought his stomach was going back to his spine. He had never felt this kind of pain.
Kane lifted Corwin from the rail. He power bombed him to the sparsely padded floor.
Corwin was stunned as he lie there looking up at the black muscle teen.
Corwin wanted to cry. He knew he had let his temper dictate this match, and now he knew he had cost them the tag team jackets.
Kane gripped Corwin by the hair and drug him to the ring. He shoved him under the bottom rope.
Drew was back on the ring apron. Corwin crawled slowly toward his partner.
Kane watched as Corwin slowly attempted to get to Drew. He sauntered over and tagged HB.
Corwin had tears streaming down his face as he reached to tag his partner. Drew bent forward to take the tag, but was knocked from the ring apron by HB's forearm.
Corwin's body was covered in sweat. His chest was heaving. He had never been beaten up this hard in a match.
Corwin knew when Drew was knocked from the apron his torment was going to continue.
HB climbed to the top rope. He looked down at Corwin who was flat on his stomach. KB leapt off and drove his knee hard to Corwin's back.
Corwin thought he would pass out from the pain. He lie on the mat trying hard to hold out. HB stood and delivered two hard stomps to Corwin's back. Corwin yelled out.
HB then decided to end this. He dropped down on Corwin's back and locked the Pretty boy Chump in a full nelson camel clutch submission.
Corwin screamed in pain as his back was contorted in ways it was not meant to go.
Corwin refused to submit. Tears an sweat were pouring down his face and running in his eyes. HB pulled back harder. Corwin yelled out again.
Corwin's vision was going blurry as he tried to hang on. His back was in agony as HB applied more and more pressure.
Corwin thought HB would sever his shoulders with his powerful full nelson.
Drew crawled to the ring apron and saw his best friend was really hurting. He started through the ropes but was met by Kane. Kane drug Drew through the ropes and tossed him to the opposite side of the ring. He met Drew with a hard foot to the gut. As Drew doubled over, Kane racked the other half of the TW tag team champs.
Both Corwin and Drew were now being held compliant in submission holds.
Jessie. Jack, Sean, Jeff, Carl, Ari, Rick and Carter stood in the audience watching as HB and Kane strutted their dominance over the soon to be former chumps.
Kane moved to the edge of the ring and dropped Drew to the arena floor.
Corwin was almost out of it in HB's powerful submission hold. The ref was raising Corwin's hand for the second time. It fell to the mat limply.
The ref gripped the teen's hand again. He raised it and released. Corwin's hand dropped to the mat with a thud.
"Break the hold, HB." The ref said as Corwin's hand hit the mat for the third time.
HB broke the hold immediately.
The ref called for the bell.
The audience was silent as their favorites went down to defeat. The other tag teams that had rallied behind HB and Kane charged the ring to congratulate their friends and new champs.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN IN TWENTY TWO MINUTES THE MATCH AHS ENDED BY A FULL NELSON / CAMEL CLUTCH SUBMISSION HOLD. THE WINNERS AND NEW TW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS ARE HB AND KANE."
HB and Kane embraced. They had avenged their earlier loss of the coveted jackets.
The referee handed the powerhouse team the title jackets.
HB and Kane were carried to the locker room on the shoulders of Carter and Rick.
Corwin was still face down in the ring and Drew was still curled in a fetal position outside the ring.
Joey, Daryl, Dean and Patrick made their way down the aisle to assist the former champs and help them to the locker room.
Corwin wanted no help. He wanted to be left alone. He knew he was responsible for their defeat. Corwin just hung his head and limped slowly towards the exit.
Dean tried to stop Corwin. Corwin turned, "Back off, bro. Just leave me the F*** alone."Dean backed off. He knew the only one who could console Corwin was Drew.
But at the moment, Drew was not ready to console Corwin. Corwin's big mouth had cost him a good hard beating. Drew was pissed. Drew had not wanted this match. This was all Corwin's fault. He had wanted to prove himself. Drew always knew the day would come when they would lose the title. He had not expected it the day after Corwin had been beaten by Jobbie. Drew knew this had all been preordained by HB and Kane. Their plan had come off like clockwork. They had played Corwin, perfectly.
Drew accepted Daryl and Joey's help back to the locker room. He would settle things with Corwin later.
Corwin limped out of the arena. He had tears running down his face. He knew he had F***ed up. Corwin knew his pride had caused this. What he did not know was how to repair the damage. He did not give a damn about the titles. But he had hurt Drew.
Corwin knew there would be no easy fix.
