Abyss heads to the ring, as his music plays.
David Penzer: And his opponent, accompanied to the ring by "The Cryptkeeper," James Mitchell, from Parts Unknown, Judas Mesias!
The lights turn off, as we see Judas Mesias heading to the ring, with scary entrance music.The match begins, after the cage is lowered. Judas Mesias attacks with a quick throat thrust, followed by a diving clothesline. Abyss gets up, but gets grappled by Mesias, and taken down by a reverse snap suplex. Abyss falls, and Mesias covers...1 - quick kick out by The Monster, Abyss. As Abyss lays on the ground in pain, Mesias grabs the steel chair, as seen earlier, and smashes the skull of Abyss with it. Abyss falls, and Judas Mesias looks like a force to be reckoned with already, in XWE, as he holds his arms up with his palms open. After Abyss manages to crawl up to his feet, Mesias grabs Abyss' legs, and puts him in a position as if he is about to hit a Samoan backdrop. Mesias taunts again, then hits a mighty Samoan backdrop slam! Suddenly, Mesias races over to Abyss, and puts both hands on Abyss' chest, for a pin fall. Earl Hebner counts, as a clear shot of the completely white eyes of this new monster, by the name of Judas Mesias can be seen...1 - 2 - shoulder up by Abyss! We're now at the 1:13 mark, and this crowd seems to really be giving some heat to Judas Mesias. Mesias begins to be frustrated, but continues this crazy beat down on Abyss. He picks Abyss up yet again, and holds his arm. Suddenly, he hits an extremely hard Irish whip on Abyss, forcing him into the steel cage. Abyss' face just smashed the cage, causing a small dint in the steel, and Abyss is now trapped between the ring ropes and the steel. Judas grabs Abyss by the head, and smashes his face into the steel multiple times. Abyss begins bleeding, and his mask seems to be tearing. Judas raises his hands up high, making his palms visible for a third time. Judas then runs right up to Abyss' trapped, defenseless body, and hits a big boot on Abyss' head. We're now at the 3:02 mark, and things look even worse for Abyss. Abyss drops to the floor, and rolls under the bottom rope, escaping from the steel that is being smashed onto his face. Judas does not seem to care, as he just picks Abyss right back up by pulling his hair. Abyss tries to fight out, but Judas Mesias has the hold locked in tight, and he transforms the hold into a headlock at the 5:03 mark. Judas Mesias has the hold locked in tight, but Abyss swings his arms around, trying to force Mesias into letting go of the hold. However, Mesias does not let go of the hold, and looks like he's got the upper hand, at the 5:15 mark. After a few more moments pass us by in the match, just seconds before the 5:35 mark, Abyss seems to have regained all of his energy back, and begins fighting his way back out of the hold. This crowd is stomping their seats and clapping their hands, as they cheer on The Monster, Abyss. Mesias has a worried face, as if he knows he's about to be in lots of trouble if he cannot fight back quit. At the 5:52 mark, Abyss begins nailing the side of Mesias, and Mesias lets go of the hold. Mesias turns around an wobbles, just before Abyss his a big boot! Mesias seems even more groggy, but still manages to remain on his feet. Abyss clotheslines Mesias, but still fails to take him down. Abyss decides to try a third time, and takes off hard at Mesias, preparing for a takedown to a gore. As Abyss' head is ducked under, Mesias picks up the steel chair, and tosses it at Abyss, saving himself just in time. On the way towards Mesias, Abyss' head caught in the steel chair. Abyss tries to take it off, but Mesias tightens it up, by closing it as tight as possible. As Mesias climbs the cage, we see the slow motion instant replay of Abyss' head being smashed by the steel chair, and caught inside it. As we head back to full screen, we see Mesias close to the top of the cage, barely managing to avoid the barb wired fence at the top. Mesias dives from all the way up the cage, back down to the mat, where Abyss' neck is being choked by the steel chair. Mesias intentionally lands on the chair, causing Abyss to grunt in pain. Abyss is nearly coughing up blood, as Mesias covers...1 - 2 - Abyss has still managed to kick out! This jam packed Los Angeles crowd is extremely amazed at the fact that the match is continuing, and looks to be in complete shock. Not only is this crowd in shock, Judas Mesias is, and shows it, as he quickly picks Abyss up off his feet, and Irish whips him into the ropes, but Abyss comes back, and boots Judas Mesias in the face! Abyss grabs the steel chair, and nails Judas a few times in the face, knocking him down after four heavy blows. Judas falls, and Abyss covers Judas quickly, not wasting anytime at all. 1 - 2 - shoulder up by Judas Mesias, just a split second before Earl Hebner's hand hit the mat a third time! The crazed front row begins a loud chant, which carries its way all the way across the sellout arena. The chant consists of three letters..."CWE, CWE, CWE!" As the camera heads back to the ring, we see Abyss picking up Judas Mesias, and Irish whipping him. In the background, a steel chair that was set up by Abyss can be seen. Judas runs the ropes, but gets taken down quickly by a drop toehold face-buster, which forces Judas' head onto the setup steel chair. Judas Mesias begins to bleed at the 8:45 mark, and both of these amazing competitors are laying on the mat, exhausted. Abyss gets up off the ground at the 9:02 mark, and awaits Judas Mesias to get up. Mesias does, but gets taken down shortly, by a monstrous choke-bomb! Abyss pulls out a tiny set of pliers from his vest, and begins snapping the steel cage apart in an area towards the bottom of the cage. Mesias gets up, and slowly moves toward Abyss, but Abyss uses the pliers to cut through the face of Mesias.' Now, Mesias is cut even deeper, and it can be seen by the pouring blood. Judas Mesias falls, and Abyss now has finally snapped a huge chunk of steel off the cage, at the 9:45 mark in this exciting steel cage match. One is left to wonder why Abyss has snapped part of the cage off, but we find out when Abyss reaches through under the ring and grabs a bag! Abyss gets up to his feet, and pours the thumbtacks all over the ring, and by now, even Judas Mesias looks intimidated. Just before Judas can get back up to his feet, Abyss does his signature taunt, leaving Mesias on the ground, worried. Mesias gets up quickly, but gets taken down by a few forearms from Abyss, followed by a choke-hold. Abyss picks Mesias up, and Irish whips him right into the piled of thumbtacks. Mesias stops just before he steps into the pile. Abyss tries to clothesline Mesias to the mat, causing him to land on the tacks, but Mesias ducks, and as Abyss runs through the tacks and makes his way back to Mesias, Mesias boots Abyss' bloody face, and as soon as Abyss' head hits the boot, he snaps his head back, and lands extremely hard on the pile of tacks. After Abyss' head hits the tacks so hard, he begins grunting and jumps right back up off the pile. He begins rolling around on the floor, but finally catches a knee. He wastes no time on his knee, and just begins rolling around even more. A full shot of Abyss' back is now shown and tacks can be seen stuck in Abyss' back everywhere. Judas Mesias grabs the steel chair, and begins wrapping barbed wire all over the chair. The barbed wire was apparently obtained from the top of the cage. After the barbed wire is wrapped around the chair, Judas places Abyss' head between his legs, as he sits on his knee. Now, at the 13:27 point in the match, Mesias grabs handcuffs out of his tights, and cuffs Abyss' hands behind his back. Now Abyss is definitely defenseless, with cuffs around his hands, and his head being pinned down by Mesias. Mesias grabs the barb wired chair, and smashes Abyss' back with, causing the tacks to cut deeper into the body of Abyss. Abyss is now completely helpless, as we reach the 14:56 mark. Mesias pulls Abyss up, and stands him up straight, in the center of the ring. Abyss cannot do anything, but watch Judas Mesias run the ropes. After Mesias gets to Abyss, he hits a 'Straight to Hell," right onto the pit of thumbtacks! Abyss cannot help but to grunt as loud as we've ever heard him. Mesias gets up off his feet, and steps on Abyss' chest, as Referee Earl Hebner counts...1 - 2 - 3! And Judas Mesias wins the match at 16:17. After the match, Judas Mesias taunts Abyss, by holding the key to the handcuffs up to his face, knowing Abyss cannot take the key. Abyss yells even louder, but Mesias doesn't seem to care. Mesias leaves the ring with the key, and slips it through his tights, as he delivers an evil grin to the beat down Abyss. Finally, the emergency crew from the back comes to unlock Abyss' cuffs, and take him away on a stretcher.
Don West: Oh, that was crazy! This is totally insane!
Josh Matthews: Wow. I am totally stunned.
Don West: Oh, can we please get a replay of what we just saw! Oh, that was INSANE! Abyss' whole back was all red after the thumbtacks stuck in him, and he was hit with a barb wired chair!
