[Doc Dean's music starts to a chorus of boos.  Just like last week, Doc Dean comes down on crutches along with Brian Adias.  The crowd's boos get even louder at the obviously faked injury.  They get into the ring and Dean grabs the mic.]

DD: Now I know that I was supposed to defend my Midwestern Title once again against Mark "The Shark" Schrader.  But once again, I am injured.  I did some extensive rehab this week and got myself back into tip-top shape, which explains why some of you may have seen me walking around this week.  However, I over rehabbed and once again tore everything in my leg, and I mean everything!  So once again, I'm sorry folks, but I can't compete tonight.

[The crowd boos as Dean and Adias start to head to the back.  Right before they get to the curtain, they are intercepted by GLW President Ryan Niemiller.]

RN: I'm sorry to hear about your injury, Doc.  Everyone was looking forward to seeing you in action tonight.

DD: Thank you for your concern, Mr. Niemiller.

RN: However, if I looked at my booking sheets right, Brian Adias doesn't have a match tonight, correct?

DD: Right...

RN: Well, in that case, Brian Adias can fill your spot tonight against Mark "The Shark" Schrader!

[Crowd pops.]

BA: Fine by me!  I kicked his ass last week and I'll do it again this week!

RN: Well then there you have it!  We have ourselves a match, Mark Schrader vs. Brian Adias!  Oh, did I mention it would be right now?

BA: Hey, all the same, baby!

RN: Oh yeah, did I mention that if you lose Brian Adias, Mark Schrader becomes the Midwestern champion?

[Crowd pops at this announcement.]

DD: WHAT?!  You can't do that!

RN: Actually, I can do that, and I just did.  Good luck, Mr. Adias; you're gonna need it!

[Crowd pops as Niemiller heads to the back while Dean & Adias are flipping out.]
