"Getting Away With Murder" plays, and the fans leap to their feet, screaming for the popular foreigner. Dubbed "The Modern Day Warrior" by the Japanese press for his fearlessness and strong-willed ways, Zack Malibu walks down the rampway, his first appearance in Japan since this past spring. Malibu seems a bit more reserved, more focused, as although he salutes his foreign fanbase, he does so very subtly, his mind obviously on something else.

 

"My Own Summer" begins playing, and though it's the theme song for the popular duo, it is simply James Blonde who enters first to it. Blonde gets a hero's welcome as well, as he's in front of the very fans that he and Faqu rebuilt their careers in front of. He heads to the ring pointing at Zack and cussing him out, but Zack silently blows it off, just staring a hole through a man he sometimes calls his friend.

 

Once again, "My Own Summer" hits, and this time it's for the reigning HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion, who gets perhaps the biggest reponse of the three combatants. With the belt strapped tightly around his waist, Faqu walks down the ramp, thumbing his nose before pausing just short of the ring and raising one arm up to welcome the crowd. Faqu steps into the ring, and unstraps the championship from around his waist, raising it over his head and glaring at Malibu as he does so.

All three men remain in seperate corners, as the ring announcer (no, it's not Michael Buffer) introduces each individual.

 

ANNOUNCER

 

Blonde turns and climbs up on the middle rope, waving the crowd on and getting them heated for the contest that's about to happen.

 

ANNOUNCER

 

Malibu, still extremely subdued, simply raises his arms briefly, as the fans roar for the mention of his name.

 

ANNOUNCER

 

Faqu beats his chest and holds the belt up in one hand, soaking in the adulation from the crowd before passing the belt off to the referee. He holds it up as well to signal to the audience that they're witnessing a title fight, and just seconds later, we are underway!

 

Blonde and Faqu inch towards each other, then turn and look at Malibu, who glares right back. Faqu and Blonde, just as famous as opponents as they are as partners, watch as Malibu walks out of the corner towards them...and cracks Faqu with a hard slap across the face! He then fires off a chop with his left hand to Blonde, and then rocks him again with a European uppercut, but his onslaught is broken up by the big Samoan, who grabs a rear waistlock, only to be knocked with two elbows from Zack, who uses those seconds that the Samoan is stunned to reverse the waistlock and then shove him forward so that he cracks heads with Blonde! James stumbles through the ropes and to the apron, while Malibu uses a schoolboy to try and eliminate the champion right off the bat!

 

ON-NO!

 

Not even a one count holds the Samoan down, and when he gets up, Malibu grabs him immediately in a lockup, then snares him in a side headlock. Faqu elbows free, then snapmares Zack over, then delivers a hard soccer kick to his back that lays him flat, in prone position for Blonde to slingshot over the ropes with a splash onto Zack!

 

ONE!

 

KICKOUT!

 

Malibu pushes his shoulders off the canvas, and now Blonde starts to lead him up to his feet, until he's met with a blistering chop to his back! Faqu then spins Blonde around and sends him into the corner, following with a crushing corner clothesline! He pulls Blonde out of the corner and lifts for a suplex, but Malibu saves Blonde by pulling his legs down, and together they spin Faqu around and hit a double hiptoss!
