SUPER ESTRELLA Ep. 1

CBWA Super Estrella live every Thursday night on Univision 

Super Estrella opens with a video package of what happened at the CBWA Flashpoint pay-per-view.

We start the show with @KingBogota in the ring with his BS Services boys and Hollywood Roblox.

Kenny Resnick says "Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce the man that will lead The CBWA to the promise land, the man that will revolutionize professional wrestling and most importantly the man that lead these men to stardom and greatness, ladies and gentlemen Mr. John Schneider!

John Schneider comes out with looks to be a brand new title belt. It's a revamped CBWA South American Title belt and that has all the guys in the ring are bowing to Schneider.

Kenny and Schneider hug and start laughing.

Kenny Resnick hands Mr. Schneider the mic.

"Sunday night, I completely made this company relevant with one move, one move that no one saw coming. We saw it obviously but nobody else.

I would like to take you back 10 years to be exact. I was doing a signing at a Dukes convention when a man came to my booth and had the audacity to say. give me $10 bucks and I'll give you a signed 8x10, I looked up and it was none other than @TheEyeOfGibson.

I said why would I give you $10 for a signed 8x10 when it clearly says on your table signed 8x10 $7.50?

He looked at me with his one straight eye and said because you're a god damn movie star and you have the money pal.

I'll never forget that night and I vowed that one day I'll get that dirty son of a bitch back.

Well that day came when I got a call from one @FootVonErich. I thought it was a prank call at first but it was step number one to the master plan. That night I hopped onto the internet machine and looked up some CBWA action on the Youtube and guess what the first thing I saw?

@TheEyeOfGibson wrestling.  Honestly I thought he was dead, but the wheels were turning so I called Foot back and said I'm in.

I soon realized when I arrived in Bogota it was crap hole and I soon then realized the reason it was a crap hole was because of Roberto Gibson running the town.

He has billboards, restaurants, late night shows, you name it that son of a bitches face was on it.

I then saw the living arrangements that were set up Foot and Garth at the Gibson compound and it made me utterly sick.

That is when I started to put the master plan in motion.

I got Foot out of that hell hole he called a compound and we left Bogota in my private jet back to Hollywood. I showed Foot how great life could be if he breaks the chain of Gibson and joins me.

It didn't take long and Foot Von Erich was on board.

I knew if I got Foot, I could get anybody to against Gibson, then it just got better from there as I got a call from the one and only, Mr Jerry Jarrett to meet him in his CBWA office,

I show up and when that door opened I see this man "Kenny The King Bolin."

Jarrett told the both of us, I don't care how you do it but I want this company turned around pronto.

I knew that he admired my work from the Dukes. He said he was a huge fan. He hired me as his Head Of Creative and Kenny Bolin as the booker. So when we all shook hands and Mr. Jerry Jarrett left, I immediately said to Kenny that we needed to get rid of Gibson and he was totally in agreement, but I also told him we can't let anybody think we are on the same page and working together.

I told  Kenny to call his guys, get Cena back in shape.

I'll be more than happy for him to use my private gym and we will have a War Games match and finally get rid of Gibson once and for all.

So I knew I would beat his old ass in his own match, the Hobo Bogota Street fight at CBWA Time to Pay. I also needed him to believe that I respected him, then when the time was right, reel him in and bang done.

Now that Gibson is gone for good, it's time for a new era in Bogota.

We have a brand new CBWA World Heavyweight Champion in Goldberg.

A new Intercontinental Champion Hot Stuff Eddie Gilbert.

And now a brand new CBWA South American Champion because Goldberg can not defend both of those belts.

I thought about how we can determine a new champion, and instead of doing another tournament -- as the new boss -- I've decided to do the next best thing and that is to give it to someone who deserves it.

That someone is a man that has stepped up and has taken his game to a new level and helped so much in getting rid of Gibson.....

Miz get your ass down to the ring!

I really appreciate the way you have stepped your game, not once have you bitched and moaned about your spot unlike an ungrateful gator man, so on behalf of myself, I hereby make you the brand CBWA South American Champion.

Congratulations Miz you deserve it.

Schneider and Miz embrace and then "Eastbound and Down" starts playing... Oh My God it's Burt Reynolds.

The Hollywood Icon who is in town visiting his good friend Claude Akins Gibson is here.

He climbs up the stairs and enters the ring.

John Schneider welcomes Reynolds to the ring. "Well hello Mr. Reynolds welc................

Burt snatches the mic out of Schneider’s hand and says "Shut your mouth you brown nose bum".

Burt says "you know I always thought you were a Burt Reynolds wanna be but now looking at you in person you can't possibly be a Burt Reynolds wanna be because I'm 10 times better looking than you will ever be".

John Schneider looking upset says "What are you doing here Mr. Reynolds?"

Burt says,  "glad you ask, I'm here to deliver a message and I have that message right here in my hand" John starts to read a letter and looks nervous.

Burt continues "and as I can see by the look of your face your not so happy. Well if your not happy now you definitely are not going to be happy with what happens next".

Burt tips his cowboy hat and leaves and Rock N Roll express music hits..

For the first time in 4 years, Ricky and Roberto, hit the ring together and start cleaning house but they are out numbered.

The Miz barking orders from outside the ring. It's a madhouse at the Univision Studios in Bogota.

Wait a minute it's @gator_zz  and he attacks The Miz from behind and brings him in the ring.

BS Services clears the ring, Ricky Morton extends a hand to @gator_zz and ZZ flips him off and stuns him but Roberto hits ZZ with a super kick and points at John Schneider who is on the stage.

Gibson starts to run after Schneider and we go to commercial.

We come back from break.

Security is holding Roberto back from getting in John Schneider's office.

Inside his office, John is pacing around his desk.

Bolin asks Schneider what was on the paper, and John says nothing he can't handle.

He tells Kenny to go get Goldberg!

---FIRST MATCH---

Steve Ryder vs Harry Dorwitz

We go to the ring where we see a CBWA's favorite jobber Harry Dorwitz in the ring and here comes the the former and longest running CBWA World Champion, Steve Ryder.

The bell rings and Ryder beheads Dorwitz with a vicious closeline.

Ryder calls for the Pile Ryder and picks up Dorwitz and drives him down, 1, 2, 3!

WINNER: STEVE RYDER

We go to the interview table where Kenny Resnick is ready to interview Steve Ryder.

Kenny asks Ryder about Fake Stan Lane's interference at the CBWA Flashpoint pay-per-view.  

Ryder breaks it down math style.

"Stan Lane is half the man I'm and if you throw Bubba in there together they are 3/16th the man I'm, so if you break it down and divide by 2 Steve Ryder is 2 and 2 3/8 all man, so you two slap tards listen, you are on the Ryder list and I will get both of you when you least expect it. Ryder poses and we go backstage.

We see Ricky Morton laid out with a steel pipe, EMT's and Roberto Gibson are on the scene.

Kenny Bolin walks by and says "hey Gibson looks like you are without a partner and your match is next" -- Bolin saunters off with a swagger.

We come back from break and John Schneider is talking to the new CBWA World Champion Goldberg.

Schneider congratulates Goldberg on his historic victory, he says "I have a letter here from the law office of Councillor Tom Zenk and a junction has been filed and it says if Roberto Gibson does not get his World Title shot like he rightfully won back at Halloween Bash, that he will sue the entire CBWA and me for everything. 

So unfortunately I have to grant this wish, however at the next PPV it will be you the monster Goldberg going one on one with Roberto Gibson but I can make the match, Colombian Rules, anything goes"

Goldberg blows a booger out of his nose onto the floor and walks off and says "Whatever"

We go to the interview table where Kenny Resnick welcomes @TheEyeOfGibson

****

Two pretty, overweight girls in the crowd are screaming their heads off for Roberto. One pulls her right boob out to be signed but the camera cuts away just in time.

Kenny welcomes Gibson back and ask for an update on his partner Ricky Morton.

Gibson says "Ricky is out, I tried to tell him a rat is waiting for him and he didn't nip right up, that's when I knew it's serious. So it looks like I'm going in alone, but that's nothing new Kenny.

Gibson tells Schneider that his receipt is coming and that he will collect huge but as far as tonight -- he's going alone"

Oh wait a minute it's @gator_zz

ZZ with his head shaved, a new look -- grabs the mic, "looks like you need a partner and I wanna kick somebody's ass, so why don't we stop the bull$hit for once and team up.

We don't need to be friends but we can whip the hell out of that freak and The Fiend.

Gibson says "why the hell do I want you as my partner? 

You stunned my original partner and how do I not know it was you that jumped Ricky in the back --- I've never trusted you Gator boy.

I don't trust anyone but me and why now would I think otherwise - this is probably a big swerve again by Schneider?"

ZZ laughs, "first off son of I wanted to beat little Ricky Morton I would do it in front of his face.

#2 as much as you wanna admit it or not we are one in the same and fighting for the same cause --- to whip John Schneider's ass!

The only way to do that is to take out his sissy boys, so let's quit the how do I know it wasn't you crap and lets go to the ring and whip somebody's ass.

I'm going and you're more than welcome to join, but you get in my crossfire don't get upset if I whoop your ass too son. 

Gibson just stands there and laughs.

Gibson grabs the beer from ZZ's hand and pounds it back. 

He then grabs two more out of ZZ's cooler -- cracks them open and smashes them back.

He asks for another and pounds that back. 1 more he says and he cracks that open and pounds that one back.

Gibson looks at the camera - belches and yells, Let's go kick some ass tonight"

COMING UP: CBWA TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

---MATCH 2 ----

CBWA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

The Fiend & Foot Von Erich vs Roberto Gibson & AUZZTIN

We are back with the challengers pacing in the ring waiting for the champs and here they come with the new CBWA South American champion the Miz.

I guess the Miz is going to be in the corner of the champions.

Bell rings and it's ZZ and Bray. ZZ is throwing haymakers and sending The Fiend in the corner and is stomping a mud hole in his ass and walking it dry. He grabs the Fiend by the arm and aggressively tags in Gibson. Gibson climbs the top rope and and comes down on his arm, arm drag and a drop kick to the Fiend and lands in his corner.

Gibson is telling Foot to make the tag, Foot hesitates at first but tags in, this going to be good. Gibson and Foot exchange punches. Foot snatches a headlock and Gibson takes him to the rope where he shoots him off but Foot hits Gibson with a shoulder block. Gibson looks up and Foot poses and tells him he's the man now, they tie up but Gibson pokes Foot eyes. Gibson now stomping the hand of Foot, taking out the Claw, smart move by Gibson.

Gibson ties Foot to the ropes but is reversed and The Miz trips up Gibson.

ZZ runs down and grabs The Miz. He starts beating him up.

Gibson looking for a tag but ZZ is not there. The Fiend is tagged in and a double team in the corner starts.

Gibson is in trouble. ZZ back on the apron is trying to get Gibson going as he has a nerve hold on him. The crowd is chanting Ro Ber To Ro Ber To --- he's coming out of it and starts elbowing The Fiend and breaks the hold.

ZZ reaching his hand out gets the hot tag and here comes ZZ, closeline to The Fiend nails Foot off the apron, going for the stunner but is blocked -- ZZ is pushed into the referee who goes down hard.

Here comes the BS Service.

Underfaker comes in and tries to chokeslam ZZ but is met by a low blow by Gibson and a stunner by ZZ.

Cena has got Gibson up in the FU but Gibson lands on his feet and kicks Cena in the head, followed by another stunner by ZZ.

The referee is coming to and catches The Miz getting into the ring -- as he pushes Miz through the ropes -- with the ref's back turned Gibson super kicks The Fiend.

ZZ with the cover 1, 2, 3!!!!

WE HAVE NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS.

WINNERS: ROBERTO GIBSON & AUZZTIN

The BS Service storms the ring and jumps Gibson and ZZ.

Here comes the CBWA World Champ Goldberg.

John Schneider gets on the microphone and calls off the BS Service.

Goldberg grabs the tag titles and slides into the ring and hands them over to Gibson and ZZ.

Gibson grabs Goldberg’s arm and points to the CBWA World Heavyweight title and tells Goldberg I'm coming for that Goldass.

Goldberg smirks and walks off. ZZ slides a cooler full of beer into the ring and Gibson begins to celebrate by cracking open some cold ones.

John Schneider is on the ramp saying this is far from over.

Next week Thursday on CBWA Super Estrella

We talk to @FrankConverseMO and @BoltsyAmsterdam as we try to get to the bottom of their relationship.

Plus BS Services member The Underfaker in action.

A candid interview with Bogota Mayor and Former CBWA World Champion Fake Stan Lane.

We'll see you next week Bogota!!!!!!!!!

“When In Doubt, Use Lightweights”  A UFC 216 Preview

Joey

October 2nd

Before I begin with the usual, I suppose I have to start by addressing the atrocities that occurred last night/this morning in Las Vegas. I lack a really eloquent way to simply say that this shit, every bit of it, really needs to stop. No matter your political beliefs, interpretation of the constitution, opinion on firearms or whatever, nobody should have to go to a place of entertainment with a cloud of "Am I going to survive tonight?" hanging over their heads. We should all be better than this shit. We should demand more from our representatives and one another. Thoughts and prayers are nice but some action in the other direction would be nice. Let's make this place a tolerable place to live in for a little while.

The UFC returns to Las Vegas and this is a very peculiar card. The buyrate, the true be all and end all which determines the success of a show, will probably not be through the roof. At the same time, the UFC is giving two new guys the opportunity to headline a PPV with a really solid developed undercard beneath it. Beyond that, there are guys who CAN be bigger stars sprinkled throughout the show. It's a really good show as of right now with potentially one more fight to get added for some good old fashioned depth. It's survived a few knocks which speaks to its depth thus far although we still have THE DREADED MID WEEK FIGHT CANCELLATION to worry ourselves about. If you've got some money laying around to spend on a show, one with two title fights, a shot at history, a HW fight for people who like big people and a very pivotal 155 lb fight is the sort of show you should be into.

Fights: 12

Debuts:  1 (Poliana Botelho)

Fight Changes/Injury Cancellations: 3 (Paige Van Zant vs Jessica Eye cancelled, Andrea Lee vs Kalindra Faria cancelled, Abel Trujillo OUT, Bobby Green IN vs Lando Vannata)

Headliners (fighters who have either main evented or co-main evented shows in the UFC): 12 (Tony Ferguson, Kevin Lee, Demetrious Johnson, Fabricio Werdum, Derrick Lewis, Evan Dunham, Beneil Dariush, Will Brooks, Lando Vannata, Bobby Green, John Moraga, Thales Leites)

Fighters On Losing Streaks in the UFC:   3 (Will Brooks, Matt Schnell, Marco Beltran)

Fighters On Winning Streaks in the UFC:  7 (Tony Ferguson, Kevin Lee, Evan Dunham, Demetrious Johnson, Ray Borg, Walt Harris, Brad Tavares)

Stat Monitor for 2017:

Debuting Fighters (Current number: 28-26)- Poliana Botelho

Short Notice Fighters (Current number: 17-28)- Bobby Green

Second Fight (Current number: 23-30)-  Tom Duquesnoy, Pearl Gonzales, Magomed Bibulatov

Cage Corrosion (16-8)- Evan Dunham

Twelve Precarious Ponderings

1- Looking at this main event, it's a pretty perplexing challenge to determine just what this interim title means. Despite his talk this weekend, you can't help but get the feeling that McGregor vs Diaz III is more likely than not going to be the fight that comes next for Conor. The actual title will likely be held up with a money fight, a fight that revolves around getting the most dollars possible which is absolutely fine from a business sense. It does little though to prevent the UFC from taking on the bad smell of boxing's mistakes; ya know where you'd have the "actual" champ, an "interim" champion and then a champion emeritus in case a guy decides to retire then unretire. It doesn't even help that to SOME (not all but some) Kevin Lee is just a guy filling in a spot best reserved for Khabib Nurmagomedov. That's unfair given that Lee has been fighting top competition for a while while Khabib has been injured or incapable to take the call to fight but you can't change narratives once they're formed. It's not easy to rewire the already formed opinion/mind of fans. It also isn't entirely out of the realm of possibility that the interim champ defends his title AT LEAST ONCE before the actual champ fights and no, not due to injury either. The reality is that this is a great fight but discovering its worth is complicated.

2- How confident should the UFC be in Ray Borg making "the walk" as some would say. He had a bad weight cut which either did or didn't lead to the illness which got him yanked (given how it happened vs Ian McCall in a similar situation, I'm going with yeah there) and is opting to go SANS nutritionist on this one. Some of you fellas might need to go back and watch some Magomed Bibulatov just in case.

3- Is Mighty Mouse done until the spring if he wins? Pettis vs Cejudo in December means the winner is probably the #1 contender barring Joe B getting healthy and getting a title shot in the winter.  Could be the last time we see the P4P best for a while.

4- Similarly I think there's ample pressure on Werdum and Derrick Lewis here to do something big. Miocic may be out for however long this contractual snafu takes to fix up and so the winner might need to be really impressive to keep pace with Ngannou, Overeem and Alexander Volkov.

5- The last time Tony Ferguson REALLY struggled, not counting a first round vs a replacement guy with a funky style, was Danny Castillo. Castillo was able to take advantage of Ferguson's wacky submission game and basically try to grind out a decision win. I'd argue Ferguson has improved ten fold since then BUT Kevin Lee has some Castillo in his game. He's very good at getting a fight to where it needs to be, he's determined and relentless and his submission game is way better than Danny Castillo's ever was. I'm not saying I'm picking Lee to win BUT I think stylistically he's got a fair shot to pull off something here.

6- Tom Duquesnoy is getting a very moderate step up in competition as the UFC pits him vs Cody Stamman as THE featured prelim bout for UFC 216. It's a winnable fight for Mr. Duquesnoy and a good showcase of whether or not his wrestling is up to par to compete vs a big physical 135er. Stamman had no problems taking Terrion Ware down so this is one to keep an eye out for.

7- Kevin Lee has scrambled with some very good grapplers so I don't expect him to be overwhelmed in that regard. What I am curious to see is whether Lee's propensity to panic in exchanges will come out. Going way back to the Jesse Ronson fight, there were moments where as soon as things got a little hectic, he'd shoot in for a takedown and just try to muscle people around. That's great against guys who aren't expert neck grabbers but if/when Ferguson senses a panic TD, he's going to snatch a neck, give up the takedown and force Lee to defend against his d'arce. Hard to do for 25 minutes.

8- Do not forget Ferguson had a 25 minute fight at high altitude where he was so bored he decided to salsa dance----anybody suggesting Lee has any sort of cardio advantage is someone who you shouldn't listen to.

9- A tale of two completely different stuttering hype trains on the UFC 216 prelims. We can begin with "Groovy" Lando Vannata who is better than he's shown thus far. Lando is 1-2 in the UFC but I'd caution that David Teymur is low key really great and losing to Tony Ferguson on a week's notice is nothing to be ashamed of. Vannata is just one of those guys who has this overly relaxed malaise to his game which costs him when he's going one strike for every four landed vs composed strikers. You can maybe win that way at 185 or 205 lbs where power > skill but not so at 155 lbs. Lando gets Bobby Green in what SHOULD be a showcase for Vannata given how Green is not the kind of guy who overwhelms you with pressure and isn't going to give you a lot of things to be concerned about. He does everything well but never well enough, at least since he hurt his knee, to give you reason for pause. On the other hand you have WIll Brooks who came into the UFC with a ton of fanfare straight out of Bellator. The results? 1-2 with a caveat. His first loss was Alex "Cowboy" Oliveira in a fight where Oliveira missed by like six lbs. That one you can wrap up and discard. The loss vs Carlos Oliveira? A lot harder to discard and much differ to wash away. Brooks is struggling and the UFC seems to have recognized that because Nik Lentz is like THE easiest touch for him. It's a guy who does everything Brooks does except not as well, not as athletically gifted and without the power to give Brooks cause for concern. This is as close to a gift wrapped win as it gets.

10- This main card is currently lacking a fight by the by. So who gets bumped up? They've already advertised Will Harris vs Mark Godbeer and Thales Leites vs Brad Tavares as the main fights of note for the FP portion. Do they bump up Moraga vs Bibulatov? How about maybe sneaking up the card the fight between Brooks/Lentz?

11- Brad Tavares is under 30, he's on a winning streak, he's one of the longer tenured UFC middleweights in the world and he's on the prelims. Why? The last time he finished a fight was in early 2011 against PHIL BARONI. Dude needs a finish in the worst way.

12- Walt Harris vs Mark Godbeer is the tipping point for this card. If it sucks, run for the hills. IF it's good? Haboy.

Must Wins

Kevin Lee

There's no doubt in my heart of hearts that Kevin Lee would not get another opportunity for this shot outside of a collection of circumstances like this. Look at the 155 lb landscape as it currently stands; McGregor vs Diaz III is coming. Eddie Alvarez/Justin Gaethje likely gives you a back up option off of that. Dustin Poirier and Anthony Pettis is a really great fight between two really great exciting fighters people wanna see. Russian LWs like Khabib Nurmagomedov and the smashing machine Mairbek Taisumov exist. Kevin Lee is a great fighter but if he wants to keep the public's attention, he pretty much HAS to win.

Derrick Lewis

Any UFC HW from ages 35 to 45 will always be given ample opportunities to redeem themselves. Look at Andrei Arlovski. Look at Travis Browne. Look at Overeem. Look at etc etc etc forever until the end of time. HWs are an ageless commodity for some people---so if Werdum loses? NBD. Sometimes good fighters lose am I right? Now Derrick Lewis is a different story. For some people, Lewis has always been sort of a "when the bubble bursts" guy. His wins while violent aren't always impressive. His focus and cardio can come and go in stops and starts. More often than not, a fight ends with him literally crying. Still he's fun in a division that needs fun and he's one of the more amusing guys out there. So a win for Derrick Lewis would be cool.

Mighty Mouse

HISTORY Is on the line, dudes!

Five Can't Miss Fights

1- Kevin Lee vs Tony Ferguson

Even if the title wasn't on the line, this would be the best fight on almost any card (outside of some combination of Ferguson, Alvarez, Gaethje or Poirier). It's a genuinely great LW fight.

2- Mighty Mouse vs Ray Borg

I feel like your feelings on Mighty Mouse say a lot about you as an MMA fan. For me, we should all band together and watch as our marvel of joy and bundle of asswhoop goes out there to do his deed. <3 Mighty Mouse.

3- Lando Vannata vs Bobby Green

Lando is must see entertainment, the sort of fighter who fights fearlessly and does shit that should cost him a fight every time he fights. Bobby Green is a similar minded fighter. Assuming it's not a staring/jaw jack contest, this should be good.

4- Tom Duquesnoy vs Cody Stamman

Duquesnoy is VERY similar to Lando Vannata in the sense that each and every fight he has, he's so careless (in a good way) that he seems to welcome an element of danger. He's really fun to watch and Stamman showed me a lot vs Terrion Ware. It's a great test for Duquesnoy because if he's going to make it at 135 lbs, the top of that division has a lot of dudes who can wrestle their ass off.

5- Magomed Bibulatov vs John Moraga

I've seen glimpses of Bibulatov and wasn't overly impressed BUT Moraga seemed to rediscover the tricks which made John Moraga a #1 contender once. He gave a limited opponent all kinds of fits in New Zealand and looked to bee back to his old ways. Great test for Bibulatov and Moraga, when he feels like it and is on, is a fun dude to watch.

The Cowboy From Hell  (Warrior’s Blood chapter 5)

Explicit lyric and word warning. Some uses of the f word and more.

 Kane and Janna were walking through the jungle of concrete and buildings. Each turn seemed to take them to wrong place, the buildings looked the same and there were no landmarks to point out a direction or if they had been in the same spot more than once.

 “FUCK!” Kane yelled at the top of his lungs. Janna looked around and tried to see where they were at. A large building was right in front of them, two big garage type doors looked like the only entrance points.

 “Kane, you mind not throwing a fit.” Janna mocked. Kane looked up and saw the building.

 “You wanna open it or shall I do the honors?” Kane asked. Janna stepped back and motioned Kane to do it. Kane smirked as he transformed, his body turned into a full skeleton before he finally started playing some chords. Bones shot out of the ground before impaling the door and ripping it down. The door came down with ease, not a bit of metal remained on the frame.

 “Hello there, we’ve been expecting you.” a zombie like creature greeted. With him was a big dog with some piercings and two big husks. The zombie had a hold on the dog by two chains that went through the dog’s tusks. Janna and Kane looked at the duo in amazement.

 “May I ask a quick question?” Kane asked, his curiosity was starting to take over. Janna gave Kane a look of surprise before she shifted focus back to the two creatures.

 “Sure.” the zombie creature replied.

 “Why do you guys look like metal mascots?” Kane asked. The zombie creature took his time thinking of a reply.

 “Well, it’s how we’re born. We look like this so we can pick up all the traits of said band. For I have the sound and skill of the Iron Maiden band members. My pet has all the skill and sound of the Motorhead band members.” the zombie creature explained.

 “So, you’re basically Eddie and SnaggleTooth?” Kane asked. Eddie nodded his head before he pulled out his guitar. SnaggleTooth got up on his hind legs and pulled out a fully metal bass guitar.

 “Kane, what songs are we going to do?” Janna asked. Kane thought for a bit before making his decision.

 “Cowboys From Hell, The Unforgiven 2, and Addicted To Pain.” Kane replied. Janna smirked and nodded, meanwhile Eddie and SnaggleTooth got ready to play.

 Kane opened up with the opening riff for Cowboys From Hell. Janna joined in and was joined by Eddie and SnaggleTooth.

“Under the lights where we stand tall

Nobody touches us at all

Showdown, shootout, spread fear within, without

We're gonna take what's ours to have

Spread the word throughout the land

They say the bad guys wear black

We're tagged and can't turn back!” Eddie and SnaggleTooth sang.

 “You see us comin'

And you all together run for cover

We're takin' over this town!” Eddie and SnaggleTooth sang.

 “Here we come, reach for your gun

And you better listen well my friend, you see

It's been slow down below,

Aimed at you, we're the cowboys from hell

Deed is done again, we've won

Ain't talking no tall tales friend

Cause high noon, your doom

Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell!” All four of them sang in unison. A small riff lead to the second half of the song.

  “Pillage the village, trash the scene

But better not take it out on me

Cause a ghost town is found

Where your city used to be

So out of the darkness and into the light

Sparks fly everywhere in sight

From my double barrel, twelve gauge,

Can't lock me in your cage!” Janna and Kane sang together.

 “You see us comin'

And you all together run for cover

We're takin' over this town!” Kane and Janna sang.

 “Here we come, reach for your gun

And you better listen well my friend, you see

It's been slow down below,

Aimed at you, we're the cowboys from hell

Deed is done again, we've won

Ain't talking no tall tales friend

Cause high noon, your doom

Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell!” all four of them sang before breaking into the guitar solo.

 Eddie started firing lasers from his guitar while SnaggleTooth was shooting metal spikes at Janna and Kane. Kane made a shield while Janna attacked with sharp bones that shot out of the ground. Eddie got hit in the arm while SnaggleTooth dodged the bones.

 “Here we come, reach for your gun

And you better listen well my friend, you see

It's been slow down below,

Aimed at you, we're the cowboys from hell

Deed is done again, we've won

Ain't talking no tall tales friend

Cause high noon, your doom

Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell

Step aside, we're the cowboys from hell!” Kane and Janna sang, the finale of the song was over.

 “Damn you, you brats!” Eddie yelled out in anger. Eddie flipped the bird before wrapping up his injury with some cloth.

 “Let’s get to rolling Janna.” Kane stated. Janna nodded and began playing the opening riff for The Unforgiven 2. The other three joined in, making the opening whole.

 “Lay beside me and tell me what they've done

And speak the words I wanna hear to make my demons run

The door is locked now but it's open if you're true

If you can understand the me then I can understand the you.” Kane and Janna softly sang.

 “Lay beside me, under wicked sky

Through black of day, dark of night, we share this, paralyzed

The door cracks open but there's no sun shining through

Black heart scarring darker still but there's no sun shining through

No there's no sun shining through, no there's no sun shining!” SnaggleTooth and Eddie sang.

 “What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

Yeah, what I've felt, what I've known

Sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there

'Cause I'm the one who waits for you

Or are you unforgiven too?” the four sang beautifully.

 “Come lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear

She loves me not, she loves me still but she'll never love again

She lay beside me but she'll be there when I'm gone

Black hearts scarring darker still, yes she'll be there when I'm gone

Yes she'll be there when I'm gone, dead sure she'll be there!” Kane and Janna sang, the two voices starting to mix into a heavenly duo.

 “What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

Yeah, what I've felt, what I've known

Sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there

'Cause I'm the one who waits for you

Or are you unforgiven too?” the four sang together.

 The solo battle began. Kane attacked using a skeleton that was as tall as a blue whale, but as wide as a bear. Eddie killed the skeleton with an army of mini Eddie soldiers. A huge train with SnaggleTooth’s face on it appeared and tried to hit Janna. Janna got a wall of bones up to lessen the impact. Janna closed her eyes, but felt only a shove. Janna opened her eyes to see Kane on the ground barely moving. Kane continued playing with an angry fire in his eyes.

 “Lay beside me, tell me what I've done

The door is closed so are your eyes

But now I see the sun, now I see the sun

Yes now I see it!” Eddie and SnaggleTooth sang, the high pitched and growly voices mixing well.

 “What I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you

Yeah, what I've felt, what I've known

So sick and tired, I stand alone

Could you be there

'Cause I'm the one who waits

The one who waits for you

Oh, what I've felt, what I've known

Turn the pages, turn the stone

Behind the door, should I open it for you?

(So I dub thee unforgiven)

Oh, what I've felt

Oh, what I've known

I'll take this key and I'll bury it in you

Because you're unforgiven too

Never free, never me

Because you're unforgiven too!” the four sang.

 Kane slowly got to his feet and started breathing heavily. His face turned into a frown that could kill a man.

 “You bastards,” Kane huffed, “I’LL FUCKING KILL YOU!” Kane started playing the opening riff for Addicted To Pain. The other three played along.

 “Tell me how it feels to live a lie

Tell me do you know that it won't ever be the same

You can't deny, the house of cards just hit the floor

Don't tell me you can save it in the end

There's nothing you can do

'Cause when it's gone, you know it won't come back again

But you don't listen anymore

You're addicted to pain

Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows

So addicted to face

In time you're gonna lose it all

If only I had said this long ago

If only I had found a way to tell you all the things you should've known

But you were lost right from the start

How the hell are you the one to blame

You've done no wrong, you gave it all

So why the hell did you have to change

You broke your back, she broke your heart

You're addicted to pain

Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows

So addicted to face

In time you're gonna lose it all

Cry out

You're nowhere now

She sold you out

You're gonna lose it all

Cry out

You're nowhere now

Just tear it down

You're gonna lose it all!” Kane and Janna sang, not allowing SnaggleTooth or Eddie a chance to get in any lyrics.

 Once the solo started Kane instantly punctured SnaggleTooth and Eddie with sharp bones. The onslaught almost killed their opponents, but the solo ended before that could happen.

 You're addicted to pain

Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows

So addicted to face

In time you're gonna lose it all

You're addicted to pain

Sometimes it seems like nothing else matters

You're too addicted to face

In time you're gonna lose it all

Cry out

You're nowhere now

In time you're gonna lose it all

Cry out

You're nowhere now

You don't live it anymore

Cry out

You're nowhere now

In time you're gonna lose it all

Cry out

You're nowhere now

You don't live it anymore!” Kane passionately sang.

 “You sons of bitches were lucky.” Kane huffed out before returning back to his human state. Eddie and SnaggleTooth disappeared without any trace of where they went, a mystery that will have to be solved later.

 ‘Kane, are you okay?” Janna rushed to Kane’s side. Kane nodded yes before rising to his feet.

 “Not the first time I could have died.” Kane joked before tears formed in his eyes.

 “What happened Kane?” Janna asked softly. Kane took off his jacket to show off all of his scars. Some of them were small, but most of the scars were big.

 “I’ve gotten into many fights,” Kane began to explain, “but I was also abused by my damned uncle.”

 Janna softly rubbed Kane’s back while Kane began to cry. Kane allowed his macho go away so his soft and hurt sides could show.

 “Do… do you know the song ‘Made Of Scars’ by Stone Sour?” Kane managed to ask while he was crying.

 “Yeah, why?” Janna asked.

 “It helps me get through, want to sing it with me?” Kane asked. Janna nodded her head before Kane started singing the first verse.

 This one came from looking, this one opened twice

These two seemed smooth as silk, flush against my eyes

This one need stitches, and this one came from rings

This one isn't even there, but I feel it more because you don't care!” Kane sang.

 “Yeah, cut right into me

Yeah, because I am made of scars

Yes, I am made of scars!” Kane and Janna sang together.

 This one had it coming, this one found a vein

This one was an accident, but never gave me pain

This one was my father's, and this one you can't see

This one had me scared to death

But I guess I should be glad I'm not dead!” Janna sang.

 “Yeah, cut right into me

Yeah, because I am made of scars

Yes, I am made of scars

God, don't you believe the hype

God, don't you believe the hype

God, don't you believe the hype

God, don't you believe the hype!” Kane and Janna sang.

 “And I will find a way

Everything you are I will betray

Oh, I swear that I will find a way

Everything you are's inside me!” Janna sang.

 “This one was the first one

This one had a vice

This one, here, I like to rub on dark and stormy nights

This one was the last one

I don't remember how

But I remember blood and rain

And I never saw it coming again!” Kane sang, growling the last line.

 “Yeah, cut right into me

Yeah, because I am made of scars

Yes, I am made of scars

Yes, I am made of scars

Yes, I am made of scars!” Janna and Kane sang in unison.

 “That's what I'm made of!” Kane growled.
