Sweet Annihilation [C] vs The Mid-South Syndicate
"Kick It In The Sticks" by Brantley Gilbert begins to play.
Rebecca: Ladies and gentleman, this next match is scheduled for one fall and is for the NAW Tag Team Championship!
Bohannon and Tim Stone walk out from the back, getting a mixed reaction from the fans as they head towards the ring.
Rebecca: On their way to the ring, the challengers, at a combined weight of 473 pounds…the team of Bohannon and Tim Stone…The Mid-South Syndicate!!
Both Tim Stone and Bohannon climb into the ring and pose as their music comes to a stop.
“Sweet Victory” by Van Halen hits the p.a. system as the fans raise to their feet booing and chants of "whore" begin to fill the arena. When pink and purple lights start to flash through the crowd, the velvet entrance curtains wiggle open as smoke starts to blow out from the top of the ramp as Kandi Washington appears from behind the curtains. She struts up to the top as she stands just within the smoke as she places her hands on her hips. She stares to both sides of the crowd as the smoke dies down and she's joined by her entourage Drake Knight and Ice. Kandi is dressed in a pair of silver boy shorts, light blue backless halter top, and knee-high blocked heel boots. She has her hair pulled back in a tightly-pulled ponytail.
Rebecca: And introducing next, the champions. Coming to the ring at a combined weight of 602 pounds….the team of Drake Knight and Ice….They are the NAW Tag team Champions…Sweet Annihilation!!
Kandi starts to strut down the ramp as she's smirking at the booing crowd while Drake Knight and Ice follows behind her. She makes her way to the bottom of the ramp way and turns to her left as she proceeds to the stairs. She struts up the three steel steps as she makes her way alongside the ring apron. She pauses in the middle on the outside apron, staring back at the fans as Drake Knight and Ice stand on both sides of the entrance ramp, at the bottom just gawking at the crowd. She turns back to the ropes and lowers herself under the second rope and steps over the first rope. She stands back up and struts to the middle of the ring, raising her arms above her head as she evilly smirks at the booing crowd as she walks across the ring to the corner. Drake Knight and Ice pull themselves on the apron as she goes over the second rope, and Drake goes over the top. They walk to the middle. She turns around in the corner and leans against the turnbuckle as she lifts her foot up on the bottom turnbuckle pad. Her theme starts to fade, the lights die down, and her video fades from the screen to blackness. All that can be heard now are the fans boos. The lights then return to normal and the referee walks in and clears the center of the ring, getting everybody into their corners. The bell rings and the match begins as Tim Stone starts off inside the ring against Drake.
Torres: Well here we go, NAW Tag team Championship. Any predictions?
Gould: Nope, just gonna call it down the center. Anything could happen in this match.
Tim Stone and Drake Knight go for the tieup but Drake raises a knee on the way in and drives it into Stone’s midsection. Drake then flips Stone to the mat with a hiptoss. Stone scrambles back to his feet but Drake stays on him with a chain of punches to drive him into the corner. Drake finishes with a huge roundhouse and Tim slumps down into a sitting position.
Gould: Drake Knight isn’t wasting any time getting going here tonight.
Torres: Yeah he’s really taking it to Tim Stone right from the start.
Drake takes a step back and runs in for a cornered hip attack, but at the last moment Stone dives out of the way and Drake comes up empty. Drake hits the turnbuckles and staggers backward towards the center of the ring and Stone makes it to his feet. Stone runs in and drives a kick right into the back of Drake’s leg to drop him to his knees, and then he smashes Drake across the back with a series of forearm shots. Drake drops to the mat and Stone hurries over to tag in Bohannon. Bohannon climbs in and goes to work on Drake with some stomps as he’s trying to get up. Bohannon finally allows Drake to make it to his feet and he runs to the ropes to come back with a flying closeline. Drake barely stumbles back a couple of steps and again Bohannon runs to the ropes. This time, however, Drake gets a boot up and Bohannon runs smack into it face first and gets leveled.
Gould: Ouch! That one might leave a mark!
Torres: Or a dent.
Drake drops down and makes the cover on Bohannon.

The forearm shot finds its mark and cracks Drake in the head, sending him stumbling backward into the ropes.

Bohannon comes back with a punch of his own and then a slugfest ensues. The fans continue to go wild as both wrestlers battle back and forth with punches. Bohannon…Ice…Bohannon…Ice…Bohannon…Ice…Bohannon…Ice…Ice…Ice…Ice.
Gould: Ice is beginning to gain the advantage!
Ice throws one last punch to stun Bohannon and then keels him over with a kick to the midsection. Ice then grabs Bohannon and slams him to the mat with a scoop slam. Bohannon holds his back in pain and Ice lays into him with some vicious stomps. Ice then pulls Bohannon back to his feet and slams him to the mat again with suplex. Bohannon again grimaces in pain as he holds his back, but Ice stays on him with more stomps.
Gould: Ice isn’t letting up one bit.
Torres: Yeah she’s punishing that backside of Bohannon…and not in a good way either!
Bohannon uses the ropes to pull himself up and Ice fires a couple of knees into his back. Ice then sends Bohannon running to the opposite ropes with an irish whip.

Gould: Close call, but Tim Stone able to kick out at 2.
Torres: He’s tough, you gotta give him that.
Drake again lifts Tim to his feet but out of nowhere Tim reaches up and chops Drake in the throat with a throat chop. Drake is stunned and staggers backward a couple of steps holding his throat. Tim then bounces backward off of the ropes and leaps at Drake with a jumping knee, hitting him square in the face and knocking him to the mat. Stone stays down too however and the referee checks on both wrestlers.
Gould: Tim Stone with a huge knee to Drake’s face!
Torres: Yeah but can he capitalize from it?
Tim gets up and makes it to Drake just as he gets to his hands and knees. Tim delivers a few hard kicks to Drake’s midsection but Drake muscles through them and begins to make it to his feet regardless. Tim then grabs Drake and plants him on the canvas headfirst with a DDT. Tim then begins to lock Drake into his signature figure four leglock.
Gould: The Figure Four!
Torres: Is he really going to try to submit the 350 pound Drake Knight?
Drake is flailing his arms as he tries to escape the leg lock but Tim Stone holds on. Drake tries to fight Tim off but Tim hooks his legs in and tightens his grip even harder. Drake grunts in pain and tries to reach for the ropes.
Torres: He’s weakening the big man!
Gould: But here comes Ice!
Ice suddenly comes sliding back inside the ring and drops a huge standing legdrop across Tim Stone’s chest, causing him to break his hold on Drake. Bohannon also then comes rolling back into the ring behind Ice and he dropkicks her in the back. Ice stumbles across the mat and into her corner but the referee gets in between her and Bohannon and sends them both to their corners to maintain control of the match. Tim gets to his feet and cracks Drake with a European uppercut as he’s getting back up to send him staggering into the corner. Tim walks in and grabs the rope on each side of Drake, using them as leverage to drive multiple shoulder charges into Drake’s midsection. Drake slumps down into the corner a bit more and Tim takes a few steps backward and aims before running in for knee smash to Drakes chest. Drake falls down to his hands and knees and Tim lifts Drake to his feet once more and begins to walk him towards his corner where Bohannon is ready to tag in. Drake suddenly breaks free and catches Tim by the throat, slamming him to the mat with a huge chokeslam.

Save by Bohannon!
Gould: Bohannon runs in to break up the pin just in the nick of time!
Torres: Yeah, Tim Stone just got splattered with that signature chokeslam of Drake Knight. For a second there I thought it was over.
Torres: And now here comes Ice again!
Ice rolls back inside the ring and Bohannon goes right after her. The referee tries to maintain control but he gets shoved aside in the scuffle. Bohannon tags Ice a few times with some stiff jabs and then throws a big roundhouse but Ice ducks it and sends him to the mat with a backdrop. She then lifts Bohannon to his feet and tosses him over the top rope. Ice follows Bohannon outside and Drake lifts Tim Stone to his feet. He then looks around at the crowd and signals that he wants to finish it.
Gould: It look like Drake Knight is looking to put Tim Stone away right here!
Drake lifts Tim up, but as soon as he gets him up Tim lashes out and stuns him with a few hard jabs. Drake drops Tim and holds his face, stunned from the punches. Tim scrambles to his feet and Drake shakes the cobwebs out before coming after him again. Tim bounces backward off of the ropes and comes back with a jumping closeline to take Drake down to the mat. Tim stays down too however and Ice shows back up in the ring apron and calls out to Drake for the tag. Bohannon follows suit as he then shows up in his corner and reaches out as he awaits the tag from his partner. Tim tags in Bohannon and almost at the same time Drake slaps Ice’s hand and tags her in. Again Bohannon & Ice square off in the ring legally. This time though, they skip the feeling out process and get right to business. They lock up and Bohannon gets the headlock and walks Ice to the corner. He then drives his knee into Ice’s midsection a few times and releases the headlock, pushing Ice back against the turnbuckle. Ice quickly fires back though and after a few stiff body shots she grabs Bohannon and spins him around into the corner instead. She lays into Bohannon with a series of back elbows and then whips him hard into the opposite corner. Bohannon slumps against the turnbuckle and Ice runs in and crushes him with a running body splash. Ice with the cover.

Gould: A fantastic move by Ice but it falls just short of getting her the three count.
Torres: Yeah Ice is on fire right now…which sounds kind of ironic for somebody with her nickname. But in any case, she better hurry up and use that fire to put Bohannon away while she still has him hurt.
After getting the better of Drake outside the ring Tim Stone has broken away from him and is back on the apron yelling into the ring for his partner to make the tag. Ice lifts Bohannon to his feet and lifts him up for her chokelsam finisher, the Sacrif-Ice, but Tim Stone doesn’t let that happen as he runs in and punches Ice in the head to break up the move before Ice can land it. Drake then comes storming in but the referee ushers both Tim and Drake back to their corners, threatening them both with a disqualification. Bohannon crawls over to his corner and tags in Tim. Tim climbs in and instantly he and Ice begin exchanging punches. They go back and forth with rights and lefts as the fans cheer their approval. Ice, Stone, Ice, Stone, Ice, Stone, Ice, Ice, Ice.
Gould: A huge round of punches from Ice!
