(Ricky Champagne)
Possum, Drop the O,
Leaping from the turnbuckle!
By gawd he’s broken him!
It’s in his eyes, King.
Oh, a kickout. Not the chair!
Pandemonium!
(Ninjastroni)
Pandemonium!
Wait! Who is this? It’s Pet Rock!
Possum’s old partner!
The confusion, Jim!
He’s making his way ringside!
Possum won’t like this.
(Ricky Champagne)
Possum’s old partner
Stained overalls through the crowd!
Security, Help!
He’s got a trash can!
By gawd, the cage lowering!
Bitter rivals trapped!
(Ninjastroni)
Bitter rivals trapped!
Jim! I can’t believe my eyes.
Steel cage. No way out!
Mid-ring stare down, King!
Pet Rock has something to say.
Listen up, Possum!
(Ricky Champagne)
Steel cage. No way out!
Tension thick as hot garbage,
Rock spits tobacco.
You stole all my shine,
Lurking underneath bridges.
King...who cut the lights?
(Ninjastroni)
You stole all my shine.
Pet Rock don’t like his shine stole,
So I stole the light.
In dark, we battle,
I will, I will Pet Rock you
Back! Into the trash!
(Ricky Champagne)
Jim. Hold me close. Clang!
King. Composure. Fix this fast.
Bang. Lights have returned.
Rock levels possum.
Bell screaming through the chaos.
Crowd throwing hot dogs.
(Ninjastroni)
Crowd throwing hot dogs.
Madness, bedlam, mustard, buns.
I have to confess!
What’s on your mind, King?
I...I stole Pet Rock’s shine, Jim.
King! No good scoundrel!
(Ricky Champagne)
King! No good scoundrel!
Possum and Rock turn... They heard.
Cage lifts, Rock launches.
Jim pleads, King leveled.
No! Swamp-bomb through the table.
Fans going berserk.
(Ninjastroni)
Fans going berserk!
King hands over Possum’s shine
And begs for mercy.
The crowd wants vengeance.
Pyrotechnics pop, sparkle.
Sasquatch roars backstage.
(Ricky Champagne)
Sasquatch roars backstage.
Jumbotron illuminates.
Squatch storms toward the ring.
Audience erupts.
Rock and Possum both leveled.
Squatch hands King the shine.
(Ninjastroni)
Squatch hands King the shine.
King, eyebrows raised, eyes saucers,
“Jim, I got the shine!”
Squatch snatches King up.
“Wait! You can’t kidnap the King!”
Squatch laughs. Leaves building.
Until next time!
Thanks from Ninjastroni and Ricky Champagne.
