We open up to the conclusion of the Hardcore Title Ladder Match at Explosion. CD hits several chops to Craven, and Craven hits several shots to CD, and the ladder is rocking back and forth. CD smashes Craven's head into it, and then as Craven looks up CD hits him with the Black Mist! Craven falls off the ladder and thuds as he hits the mat. Creeping Death reaches up... and grabs the belt!
Zach Davis: Creeping Death wins it! Creeping Death is the new WCF Hardcore Champion!
Creeps climbs down from the ladder, belt in hand. He slides out of the ring and begins heading up the ramp.
We switch to a backstage camera, CD coming through the curtain and passing the Shadow Riders that came out, CD not even paying attention to them. Creeping Death makes his way through the gorilla position to the backstage, where a few wrestlers are standing. Steve Carr, who CD helped earlier in the night fend off Team NCW, Dehart, and even Nate Nytro, who apparently works backstage as an agent here with WCF. They're all standing there clapping for CD. Creeping Death stops and looks up at them, smiling, half his face paint rubbed off from the match. CD holds the Hardcore Title up with both hands and looks down at it. Jodia comes running up from behind the three guys, passing through Nate and Dehart, and going straight for CD. She gives CD a hug, but he winces in pain.
Creeping Death: Ah damn, that hurts.
Jodia jumps back looking like she broke a rib, but CD just laughs at her. Nate, Steve, and Dehart all leave the area to go watch the World Title Match. Creeping Death and Jodia, however, walk a different direction, through a hallway in the back of the WCF Arena, coming to CD's locker room and going in. CD sits on a steel chair while Jodia rubs his shoulders.
Creeping Death: You think that will shut everybody up?
CD holds up the Hardcore Title, it glistens in the light.
Jodia: I doubt it. Nobody has anything else to say about you other than the fact that you've been here the longest and it's time for a change. Beating two of the best up and coming stars WCF has to offer is nothing to them.
Creeping Death: Yeah, I guess you're right. All I can do now is keep proving what I've been telling everyone for the better part of a year and a half. I'm the heartbeat keeping WCF interesting, competitive, and alive.
Creeping Death places the Hardcore Title in his lap and looks down at it once again.
Creeping Death: It's hard to believe I fought through Vice and Craven for a month to get this, and in less than two weeks in Japan, it won't matter much anymore. I'm looking at double gold. The naysayers saying 'oh CD, you have the World Title to look to, you are not focused on the Hardcore Title Match.' What now? Huh? Not only am I the king of hardcore, but I've got a chance to become king of WCF once again. Will that finally shut everyone up?
Creeping Death shrugs his shoulders.
Creeping Death: I don't know, but I sure hope so.
The scene fades out with CD looking down at his newly won Hardcore Title and Jodia rubbing his shoulders.
