BB: Well everyone, what we have coming up next is sure to be a treat for those of you who like good old fashioned technical wrestling. A CSWA mainstay, Cameron Cruise is getting set to take on the debuting “Sensational” Steven Shane here on PRIMETIME. This is sure to be one heck of a technical matchup.

SB: Call it what you want, Buckley, but if you ask me, this match seems like quite the bore. If Cameron Cruise’s in-ring performance this week rivals his backstage work, you’ll be tapping my shoulder by the time Kin Hiroshi gets out here.

BB: I doubt that this match lulls you to sleep; I’ve heard nothing but good things about Mr. Shane.

SB: So you’re saying I should set an alarm rather than believe your going to tap me on the shoulder when this is over.

RJ: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is set for one fall.

(CUE UP: “Headstrong” by Trapt.)

RJ: Introducing first, from Jacksonville, North Carolina…weighing in at two hundred and fifty-three pounds…The Crippler…CAAAAMMMERRRRRONNN CRUUUUUUIIISSSSEE!

(Cruise makes his way out from behind the curtain to a rather mixed reaction. He makes his way down the ramp with a smile across his face.)

BB: Well Sammy, here’s the man you’ve been waiting for. This is certainly…Sammy!

SB: What? What? Did I miss something? Is he done?

BB: Come on! Pay attention to the match here!

(CUE UP: “Damn” by Fabolous.)

RJ: And his opponent…from Hollywood, California…weighing at two hundred and fifty-three pounds…SENSATIONAL…STEEEEEVVVEENNNN SHHHHAAAAANNE!

(Shane makes his way from behind the curtain to a very nice intro pop. Shane proceeds down the ramp, never taking his eyes off Cruise. He makes his way to the bottom of the ramp, where he slowly and provocatively removes his red, sequined robe to major adoration for all the young ladies. He then climbs into the ring as the ref calls for the bell.)

BB: Here we go, technical wrestling at its finest right here. Shane and Cruise step to the center of the ring and now lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up. Shane manages to get a step on Cruise and now locks him in a side headlock. Cruise quickly pushes Shane off and to the ropes, but there’s a nice shoulder block by Shane!

SB: Great move! I can already tell that this Steven Shane is a ring general by the way he’s abusing his power over the boring Cameron Cruise right here.

BB: Shane bounces off the ropes as Cruise gets back up. Cruise quickly hits the deck and Shane steps over him before hitting the opposite ropes. Shane rebounds, but Cruise leap frogs him. Shane hits the ropes one more time and there’s an arm drag by Cruise!

SB: A bit of offense from Cameron Cruise? Color me shocked!

BB: Cruise holds Shane in an arm bar here as Shane tries to make his way back up to his feet. Shane is up, and now reverses the arm bar into a standing wristlock. He wrenches on that arm and now pulls Cruise into a hammerlock!

SB: But Cruise is reversing it into a hammerlock of his own? Where is all of this coming from exactly?

BB: Well Cruise is really no slouch in the ring, Sammy. Here we see him pressing Shane off that hammerlock now and into the ropes. Shane rebounds and Cruise catches him with a nice dropkick. Cruise quickly stays on the advantage as he locks Shane in a reverse chin lock.

SB: Nice move there as it is very evident that Cruise at least understands he needs to soften up that neck if he’s going to put Shane away with that Reality Check at any point in time during this match.

BB: Well, Shane is rolling out of the move here. Cruise has shifted to a side headlock as Shane has made his way back up here. Shane presses Cruise off and into the ropes. Cruise rebounds, and hits Shane with a shoulder block, but The Sensational One doesn’t go down! Cruise bounces off the adjacent ropes…

SB: Beautiful powerslam by Shane! He’s holding for the cover!

BB: ONE! TWO! Kickout by Cruise!

SB: Cruise is going to be slowed by that powerslam. There aren’t too many two and a half pound guys that pack the kind of punch that Shane does in his power moves.

BB: Kind of a Rick Rude, if you will. Shane is also smart like Rude as he stays on the attack here. He pulls Cruise up and gives him a hard knife edge chop as he backs him into the ropes. And there’s another! Shane whips Cruise across the ring.

SB: Wow! Big spinebuster there! Shane’s going to go for another cover!

BB: ONE! TWO! NO! Kickout by Cruise again!

SB: I am quite impressed with this Steven Shane already! He’s just like I said, a ring general.

BB: He’s proving that by pulling up Cruise here again. He draws back. Right hand. NO! Cruise blocked it! Right hand by Cruise! Shane swings! Cruise swings back! Shane swings! Cruise takes him down with a clothesline! Shane tries to make his way back up, but Cruise catches him in a waist lock.

SB: A German suplex by Cruise! I told you this guy was electric!

BB: Shane rolling back up here. But he walks right into a belly-to-belly by Cruise! Shane is slow to his feet now as Cruise sits back and watches. Shane uses the ropes to pull himself up here. Cruise now takes off to the adjacent ropes. Springboard crossbody block!

SB: He’s holding for the cover! ONE! TWO! Kickout by Shane!

BB: Cruise pulls himself up and now reaches down to do the same to Shane.

SB: Right hand to the midsection by Shane!

BB: And now another! Cruise is doubled over here! Shane quickly locks him in a front facelock. DDT! Both men are down!

SB: And just like that, Cameron Cruise goes through his own Reality Check. I told you Steven Shane was going to wipe the mat with him.

BB: We’re now looking at a foot race to see who can get up first. Shane would have the advantage here, you’d think because Cruise just had his head rammed into the canvas, but Shane took quite the beating prior to that DDT.

SB: Shane is going to win this though. I’m giving him my pick to win this match.

BB: You know, most of the time, picks are made prior to the match starting.

SB: Well, everything up to this point was like pre-match, so I’m making my pick now.

BB: Okay then. Shane is up and he’s pulling Cruise the rest of the way to his feet. Shane gives another hard knife-edge chop as the crowd “whoos” along. Shane gives Cruise a little shove into the corner as he now whips him across the ring into the other turnbuckle.

SB: And look at Cruise’s knees buckle as he hits that corner! This is power like no other man of his size from Shane!

BB: Well, they don’t call him The Sensational One for nothing. He follows Cruise in here and now picks him up to the top turnbuckle. Shane reaches up and gives Cruise a stiff right hand before now following him up the ropes.

SB: Say goodnight Mr. Cruise! Shane grabs Cruise in that front face lock and throws his arm over his head.

BB: Superplex! No! Cruise held onto that top rope! Cruise nails Shane with a right hand! And there’s another! Shane’s losing his balance!

SB: Closed fists ref! Down goes Shane! Down goes Shane!

BB: Cruise stands up on that top rope! Shane stands back up. Missile dropkick by Cruise! Shane just stiffened up like a board!

SB: But Cruise took something out of himself too! He’s slowly trying to pull his way to Shane to make that cover.

BB: There’s the right arm! The ref flies into position. ONE! TWO! THREE! NO! Shane just managed to get the shoulder up there!

SB: This damn Cruise is trying to foil my plans here!

BB: Well, both men are slow to their feet again. Cruise is the first up, but Shane is right there with him. Cruise grabs Shane in a front face lock here, but he’s now rolling it over, looking for a neckbreaker.

SB: But Shane is elbowing his way out! Cruise tries to swing at him, but Shane ducks the blow!

BB: Inverted atomic drop by Shane! He whips Cruise off the ropes. Tilt-O-Whirl backbreaker by Shane!

SB: Here’s the cover! This one’s over! ONE! TWO! THREE! WHAT? I cannot believe Cruise just kicked out of that!

BB: Shane is just as surprised as you here, Sammy. He’s making his way back up to his feet now. And he’s just waiting on Cruise to get up?

SB: I don’t like this! Just go after him and finish this Shane! Don’t let Cameron Cruise back into this because he’s conniving like that!

BB: Shane has himself perched behind Cruise here. Cruise stumbles to his feet. California Dream! Shane just grabbed Cruise in that Million Dollar Dream before driving the back of Cruise’s head right into the canvas!

SB: Pin him Shane!

BB: He’s doing just that!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE! (Bell rings)

RJ: Ladies and gentleman, here is your winner…SENSATIONAL STEVEN SHAAAAANNNE!

SB: What a debut! I think I’m going to grow to like this guy!

BB: You don’t pull out a win over Cameron Cruise unless you’ve really got something, and I can’t wait to see what Steven Shane has in store for us later here in the CSWA!
