Sikes: This is madness, Monkey isn't out here yet...let alone the official!
Dan: Shouldn't the ref be in the ring before any of the competitors?
Sikes: Well, when the ref is the Universal Champion, and the match is for the number one contendership...
Dan: Something tells me someone didn't think this out too clearly.

“The Good, The Bad & The Ugly” hits and Mad Monkey comes sprinting out from the back! Nightcat whips Lance into the steps and bounces his head off the unforgiving steel repeatedly. Monkey rips his cowboy hat off his head and leaps, leveling Nightcat with a flying shoulder tackle!
Landing on his feet, Monkey pressed a knee into Nightcat's chest, grabs him by the hair and pummels him with repeated lefts. Lance shakes loose the cobwebs and flips over Monkey, dropping him with a bulldog on top of Nightcat!

“Tripping Billies” hits signaling the arrival of the Universal Champion, The Icon...Steve Fella! The crowd goes wild as he struts out onto the stage, the Universal Title slung over his referee shirt with that toothy grin on his face.
Nightcat shoves Monkey of off him and charges at Lance, who drops him with a drop toe hold. Monkey dusts himself off and rolls into the ring. Lance grabs Nightcat with an inverted headlock and drags him up only to plant him with an inverted DDT on the outside!
Fella takes his time getting down to the ring, chatting with the fans and glad handing all the way down the ramp. Lance drops an leg across Nightcat's neck but then looks up to see a
grinning Monkey leaning over the top rope and motioning for him to c'mon in. Lance looks from Nightcat to Monkey, taunting him from the ring before stepping over Nightcat and rolling inside. Steadfast climbs to
his feet only to eat a rising knee! A few stiff elbows to the face keep Lance softened up before Monkey whips him to the ropes...clothesline drives Lance to the mat! He bounces right back up and eats another one.
Lance is up again in a flash only to suffer an arm drag...Monkey rolls through to a cross armbar, but Steadfast wiggles free before he can lock it in. Lance rolls back to his feet only to get yanked off of them
again by Nightcat, who drags him outside the ring.
Nightcat whips him into the barricade and then carelessly tosses him with a belly to belly suplex onto the ring steps!
Fella has finally made it to the ring and seems amused by all the action taking place without the ring bell even having rang yet. He hands off the Universal title to the time keeper
and looks up to see Monkey holding the ropes open for him. Shaking his head, Fella climbs the steps and steps through the ropes. Monkey grins wide and holds out his hand to shake again...Fella shakes his head and just slaps it away. Mad Monkey shrugs and runs across the ring as Nightcat steps over the top rope...spear to the outside! Both men fall in a heap and Fella signals for the bell.
Sikes: Wait, no ones even in the ring...how can he start the match?
Dan: Uh...he's the Universal Champion. He can do whatever he wants.
Just to prove that fact, Steve starts a ten count. Holding his back, Lance drags himself up on the apron and rolls in the ring, breaking up the count after just 3. Nightcat is the next one up, he rolls in the ring and boots Lance in the back of the head. Full nelson slam on Steadfast!

Nightcat
takes a step forward to prey on Monkey and Fella now tangled on the mat when he sees movement out of the corner of his eye. Lance comes flying at him with SSBNA! Nightcat manages to pull back a little but Lance still connects solidly. Nightcat slumps over the top turnbuckle dazed and Lance stands tall for a moment, glaring at Nightcat as the crowd cheers.
He turns to find Fella appearing to help Monkey up and looks offended as well as a bit confused. Lance drags Nightcat off the turnbuckle, flopping him onto the mat and makes the cover...Fella is a little slow to get over there...
