Interlude
Somewhere is Europe a match is taking place which will affect Overdog and the entire wrestling world.
What round is this 11, 12, 19? I keep hitting this dude with everything but he keeps coming at me. Got the call on the set of Fortune Soldier VI. I had wanted to end the series with V after Fortune Soldier dies stopping the Earth Imploder. But the box office was so big they talked me into doing a sixth one. Asked them how they were going to bring me back. Said they would create a clone from my toenail. Got my doubts but nothing to lose.
As they are getting me out of the Exo Hopper suit I see these guys walk up to me.
"Excuse me Mr.Fortune we represent WAVE Europe. It is a pleasure to meet our Omniversal Champion."
"Well Dude it is a pleasure to meet a foreign affiliate."
"The Union Champion would like a Omniversal Title match."
"Not sure If I can handle that. Made a title defense against Lex Treme last month and I'm busy filming and I record my next album after that."
"Sir we can pay you handsomely."
They take out a large case of money. Large enough for even me to notice.
"Look dude I'm not motivated by cash. I'm motivated by overcoming my limitations. It is why I started and cooked at my own restaurants, it is why I wrote my series of Ransom Fortune mystery novels, It is why I hosted my own talk show on Fox. I got enough money for thirty thousand life times so don't come to me with money!!!!"
As I'm escorting these gentlemen from the set the smaller one says.
"Doomsmith has not suffered a loss in three years nor had a bout go longer than two rounds!!!"
That stops me in my tracks. Undefeated for three years? Rounds?
"Yeah but that is a Europe league. No offense brother but competition is not as intense as in North America or Japan."
"I assure you Mr.Fortune he has taken on top competition. Look over his record and you will see."
In my trailer that night I look it over and he has defeated top talent.
Komodo Wizard
King Behemoth
Red Valley Revenger
Logan "The Monarch" Jordan
Miracle Mask
Brent Stone
Hiro Tanaka
Devon "the Hook" Bryant
Those are top names and I know from experience how tough they are. So here I am fighting this Doomsmith. He is almost seven feet tall and 300 pounds. Wearing dark green and black trunks. Has these leather straps around his wrist and knees and this black and green mask/helmet.
This environment has thrown me off. Not that many people here. Not enough to cover the cost of what they are paying me. These rounds are hurting me. Every time he has beaten me enough I see the red the round ends. The helmet is protecting him from the Fortune Teller. I have hit it square five times. He goes down but not out. At this point my arm is killing me. Round 6 I took to attacking his body. I also started trying to rip that mask off. Closest I got to pinning him was after a superplex in Round 7, but he shook it off.
I'm almost done for. He just smashed me with a sidewalk slam. 1.....2.... NOOOOOOO!!!! I WILL NOT LOSE MY TITLE LIKE THIS!!!! He hits me but I don't feel it. Hits me again and again til I catch his fist. I start firing back. That damned helmet, I have had enough and rip it off of his head. He has a regular wrestling mask underneath. I'm running high on adrenaline and hit the Fortune Teller and he goes down. Referee is pulling me back trying to take the damn helmet from me. I sit him on the top rope.
NO!!!! He is back up, what is this dude? He has something on his hand. BAM!!!!!!!
1..........2...............3......
"The winner and NEW OMNIVERSAL CHAMPION DOOMSMITH!!!!!
