The People's Tag Team, FACE 2 FACE!

[Captain Awesome]

End clip showing the Final Four of the Rumble facing off... It showed some big hits, the eliminations of Awesome and Virus, and the final elimination with Eagle happy to tears at his success.

The screen fades in to a loud stadium with the crowd roaring with excitement.

Ace
Welcome to Tenacious Conflict!
Ross
We are less than a week away from Desperate Measures, and the grand opening of EWA Enterprises.
Ace
And along with it, and brand new arena in Raleigh, North Carolina. Tonight we have a great show planned for you.
Ross
In the Main Event, we will have a very special edition of Busted, featuring The United World Champ, The Eagle, and his challenger, Mr. P.
Ace
Along with Aragorn, Maverick Jones and Naomichi Hayashi.
Ross
Who's he?
Ace
The Japanese guy.
Ross
OOOOh, he has a NAME?
Ace
*sigh* We also have a rematch between Andy Brookes and Scott Buster, will Buster clear his name?
Ross
Or will lightning strike twice?
Ace
Also, we have a clash of the Champs here tonight, with The People's Champion, versus the United World Champion!
Ross
Is The People's Champion a real champ, though? I mean come on!
Ace
And much more is in store later tonight, so don't miss it.

The lights go out, and Captain Awesome's Theme Song hits the sound system

DA DUHN! 2 Spotlights show the ring.

DA DUHN!
2 Spotlights spot the ramp with Captain Awesome on it in a Heroic Pose. He walks down the ramp, slapping fives along the way

Ace
There is the Awesomest man in sports entertainment, walking down that ramp!
Ross
I'm telling you, he's not as Awesome as he says.

When he reaches the ring, the lights return to normal, and he approaches the center with a mic in hand.

Captain Awesome
I'd like to welcome you all to the AWESOMEST EVENT OF YOUR LIVES!

The crowd cheers loudly

Awesome
I'm here tonight for two reasons, and two reasons only:
One: I've got to negotiate with my stupifying, electrifying partner about our match at Desperate Measures.
TWO: I've gotta put on the AWESOMEST MATCH YOU WILL EVER SEE IN YOUR LIVES!

The Awesomites bow and the rest of the fans scream their heads off

Awesome
Right now... I'll take care of reason number one. But first, in case any of you non-awesomites out there have just came out from under your rocks to see THE ROCK: Here's a clip for ya.
ROLL THE CLIP!

-----------------
Now a clip shows of the Rock's near surrender of the title shot he got

The Rock:
...Come down to the ring!

Tenney's music

Tenney:
So Rock, how about after you give me the US Title shot...

long edited pause

The Rock:
You can have my-
:
STOP RIGHT THERE!

Rock whips his head toward the voice, the clip then shows shots of things relating to what Awesome talks about:

Awesome:
Don't give your title shot to him. YOU earned it, and YOU should keep it...
...We are THE PEOPLE'S TAG TEAM! If we can't handle a bout for a piece of gold, we don't deserve that name!
...So, I have given you a choice, partner:...(pause)
Give your shot to an (Tenney Clips)undeserving, woman hurting, stuck up, mid level superstar...(/Tenney Clip)
...or give the people what they want?(shot of The Rock raising The People's Eyebrow)

A long pause is taken on this shot... and then it is accelerated to The Rock holding out his hand while he says:

The Rock:
If you want The Rock's United States Title shot then shake the People's Hand, Jabroni!

Tenney is shown shaking The Rock's hand with a smile, and then the screen goes black...

Ace:
THE ROCK BOTTOM! THE ROCK BOTTOM! THE ROCK BOTTOM!

The clip shows Tenney getting Rock Bottomed to the Rock saying

The Rock:
But The Rock never said you'd get it

This echoes as the the screen fades to black with a still on Captain Awesome and The Rock face to face.
-----------------

Awesome
and tonight, we will determine what kind of match we will perform you at Desperate Measures.

The Awesomites scream, and The People scream, and Rodney screams as well...

Ace
What the...
Ross
Where have you been?

Awesome
So....... WITHOUT. FURTHER. ADO!
ROCKO! coooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOME ON DOWN!!!

TBC Rock

[Remember Me?]

[glow=green,2,300]“If you smell *drum roll* what The Rock *drum roll* is cooking!”[/glow]

The crowd give a huge pop as this echoes through the arena and The Rock's theme music kicks in. Then, after a moment, they give an unbelievable pop as The Rock walks out through the curtain sporting a white vest top, dark blue jeans, brown boots and black sunglasses.

Ace:
Here comes the other half of the People's Tag Team, the Great One, The Rock!

Ross:
I hate this guy!

The Rock stands at the top of the ramp for a moment to take in the crowd's ovation. Then, after a moment, he begins to stroll down the ramp with a smile on his face. The Rock then walks at a brisk pace to the bottom of the ramp. He then walks up the steps to the ring, walks accross the apron, steps up onto the second turnbuckle, still on the outside of the ring, and flings his right arm in the air, making a fist. The crowd cheer as he does so.

Ace:
Tonight The Rock goes up against The Eagle. That will be an interesting match.

The Rock then lowers his arm and steps off the second turnbuckle, before entering the ring through the second rope. He then asks for a mic from a random member of staff on the outside of the ring and they hand him on. As his music fades, he looks toward Captain Awesome as the crowd begin to chant . . .

Crowd:
ROCK . . . ROCKY . . . ROCKY!

Sinclair:
The Rock has a lot of fans here tonight.

The chant then changes in mid air . . .

Crowd:
AWESOME . . . AWESOME . . . AWESOME!

Ace:
There's a lot of awesomites here tonight, too!

The crowd then settle down, allowing The Rock to speak.

The Rock:
Captain Awesome, we may be the People's Tag Team but The Rock is not gonna lay down for your candy ass at 'Desperate Measures'!

The crowd cheer as they don't want The Rock to just lay down.

The Rock:
You and The Rock are the People's Tag Team for one reason, and that's because we electrify the people more than any other Jabroni in the back!

Another big pop for this.

The Rock:
And at 'Desperate Measures' The Rock knows that we are gonna electrify the millions . . .

The Rock lowers his mic for the crowd to say . . .

Crowd:
AND MILLIONS!

The Rock:
. . . of The Rock's fans like never before. You and The Rock are gonna make history and our match will go down as the absolute best match ever!

The excited crowd cheer.

The Rock:
That's why The Rock knows that we don't need a gimmick match to fight in simply because we can electrify these fans in a normal one on one match. So The Rock says, at 'Desperate Measures', your candy ass will go one on one with the Great One in a good ol' fashion singles match!

The Rock then extends his arm for a hand shake.

The Rock:
But lets seal the deal with the people's hand shake!

The crowd cheer as they want the hand shake.

Ross:
I wouldn't trust him. He Rock Bottomed Tenney after offering a hand shake!

Ace:
That's because Tenney was acting like a jerk, he would never Rock Bottom his own partner!

Sinclair:
I don't have an opinion about this.

[Captain Awesome]

Captain Awesome looks at The Rock, then at The People's Hand. He looks at the millions of Awesomites inside the camera, he then looks at the Rock again, giving a sigh and his hand, to The Rock. However, Awesome stops midway and waits for the Rock to advance the rest of the way with a smile. He does, but before he gets there, Awesome quickly moves his hand to slick his hair and laughs.

Ace
The crowd did not like that, Ross, listen to them boo for a man they were cheering for just moments ago!
Rodney
How could he do such a thing?

Crowd
BOOOOOOOO!

Captain Awesome raises his mic hastily after he notices the crowd booing.

Captain Awesome
Come on now, obviously I was kidding! I mean come on, Rocky can take a joke, right Rocky?

He pauses in a wait for the response.

Captain Awesome
But in all seriousness here, folks. I did that because I have an idea so Awesome, so unbelieveably insane, and unreasonably cool, that it rivals my own Awesomely insane coolness.

The Rock gives Awesome the People's Eyebrow, and Awesome elaborates.

Captain Awesome
Think about it! Do you people want one of us to win this match on a fluke?

Crowd
NO!

Captain Awesome
Do you want this to be over quickly?

Crowd
NO!

Captain Awesome
Then you'll want to see a fifteen minute Awesome-Man match between THE PEOPLE'S TAG TEAM!!!

Rodney
To elaborate, folks... an Awesome-man match is an iron man match.

a loud cheer is heard from the arena, and Captain Awesome begins again

Captain Awesome
So, Rocko. A boring, overdone, one on one bout? Or a vivid, painstaking, groundbreaking Awesome-man match?

Awesome extends his hand.

[Remember Me?]

The Rock smiles.

The Rock:
Well The Rock likes the sound of the Awesome-Man Match but rest assured that The Rock will give you everything he has during that match and he will book your candy ass directly into the SmackDown Hotel!

The crowd show a mixed reaction as Captain Awesome shrugs. The Rock then extends his arm and the two shake hands.

Ace:
The Rock just sealed the deal.

The Rock then pulls his arm away.

The Rock:
The Rock just has one thing to say to you . . .

The Rock inches closer to Captain Awesome with a smile on his face.

The Rock:
Get ready.

The Rock then shows his trademark People's Eyebrow toward Captain Awesome as the crowd cheer and The Rock's theme hits.

Ross:
I'm so not looking forward to their match.

Ace:
Well you're the only one. These fans are HYPED UP!!!

Sinclair:
I don't know what the match is gonna be like.
