(We fade back into the ring, as the match in the back came to an end and the arena transitioned from its normal lighting, to a pitch black. The only hints of light came from the cellular phones of some of the fans and the titantron. The screen was completely white.

I think he was pulling for New. Jim Ross: I don't think he missed at all King. I think he hit his intended target. Kris Gaffney: He was just hoping Jarred was going to move. [Jarred Carthallion and Tony Ikeda stand up. The tag team championship belts are passed into the ring.

(The Rock rolls out of the ring as Tony Ikeda is stomping around angry, as the Rock raises the world championship to the crowd.) (As the show got ready to come to an end, the arena went dark for it’s third time. The camera focused solely on the titantron screen once more. This time, there was no video, or white screen. It was just normal. Suddenly, the same voice we heard earlier began to echo throughout the arena.) Voice: I told you all to be ready. He is here… (The arena was in complete silence for about 30 seconds after the person was heard then, a song started playing.) Song: "I remembered black skies The lightning all around me I remembered each flash As time began to blur Like a startling sign That fate had finally found me And your voice was all I heard That I get what I deserve" (The song was unfamiliar, but the individual who stepped forward a few seconds later was not…) (Out came Ricky Ramon, a somewhat familiar face in the EMF. The crowd gave a loud burst for a reaction, but it faded rather quickly. Ramon sported a new haircut and a black T-Shirt, a pair of blue jeans and black loafers. He had a microphone in his hand. He stood at top of the ramp and scanned the arena. He had a devious smirk on his face as he waited for the right moment to speak…After a few more moments of sulking in the atmosphere, he put the microphone to his mouth and began to speak.) Ricky Ramon: I gotta say, I’m a bit surprised that I got any kind of positive reaction from you. Not to sound doubtful, but, obviously, its been a while. Three years to be exact… (Ramon paced around before continuing.) Ricky Ramon: …I only found it befitting to return at an event like return of an era…I know coming from me such a bold statement seems a bit far fetched when applied to me, but I beg to differ. You see, when I left this place, I didn’t have multiple World Championship reigns. Hell, I didn’t even win it once. On paper, my Intercontinental, extreme and television championship reigns may seem partially impressive, but nothing that puts me over the top, right? …WRONG. Because in an industry like this, what’s presented on paper is inferior to what is presented in reality. Which brings me back to the point that I was initially making. The name of this event matches my return because I AM indeed the return of an era. I solely represent what success in this business is meant to be. When I left the EMF, I was a kid on a roll…but now that I’m back, I’m a man on a mission…I know you people are all thinking to yourselves that I shouldn’t be here preaching to you. But the fact of the matter is, up to this point of my life, I’ve EARNED everything that I have received, including the privilege to walk out here and explain myself. I have already proven that I am the last of a dying breed, and believe you me, if you all are not persuaded as yet then god be my witness there’s only a matter of time until you are. (Ramon paused as he received mixed reactions from the capacity crowd in attendance. He waited for them to simmer down then continued.) Ricky Ramon: Now that you’re all done with your ruckus, I’ll go ahead and continue…as I was saying, you all will eventually be persuaded that I am…IT. I can’t figure out a more perfect way to describe myself and what I offer…You see, if there’s one thing that I have never lacked, it’s confidence. I’m not like these naïve youngsters that are plaguing the EMF who come out here week after week after week acting like slaves to you people. These guys they…they come out here and put on a bunch of phony Barbie doll smiles and wave like the royal family just to make sure that you all can go home and sleep at night knowing that at least someone cares for you… (He paused) …Yeah, I know I sound a bit harsh and yeah I know that this business is about entertainment but I speak the way I do because I’m aware that reality is cruel and I am quiet capable of entertaining whether or not I have thousands of cheerleaders behind me every time my theme music plays…But, with that aside, back to the primary topic…I am back in the EMF to claim it as mine. There isn’t a soul in that locker room than can come anywhere near my talent. You can show me any one wrestler who finds himself to be and I’ll show you a fool…You people may have your favorites but I guarantee that they cannot nor will not measure up to me…That video earlier defined the word fate as a prophetic declaration of what must be, and what must be is me atop the throne…Because everyone backstage, I am their juror and I am all of your juror… (Ramon paused. The uptight and serious face that he had loosened up and eventually produced a smirk. He then slowly put the mic back to his mouth and said…) Ricky Ramon: …and I decide your fate. (Ramon’s music played and he let off one more smile at the weary crowd. He turned around and went backstage as Return of an era came to it’s conclusion.)

JR-A few weeks ago, Angelina Love was able to get her first win in the EMF, I’m sure Bryan would like to follow that up.

Kris Gaffney-Yeah, that would help a lot.

[Daniel Bryan pushes Christian on his back, and he goes into the cover, and the ref counts the 1…………….2………KICK OUT by Christian.

He climbs up to the top rope, and he waits for Christian to get up to his feet, and as Christian is up to his feet, Christian dives on the top rope, and this makes Daniel Bryan crotch on the top rope, and then he falls to the mat in pain, and Christian falls down to one knee, as Daniel Bryan is slow to get up to his feet.

JR-Christian needs to stop from getting frustrated here.

King-It could cost him.

Kris Gaffney-It hasn’t yet.

[Christian too busy throwing a fit, doesn’t see Daniel Bryan has recovered enough to grab his arm, and surprising him enough to lock on the LeBell lock! Christian fights it…fights it…taps out!]

Kris Gaffney-I stand correct.

JR-Daniel Bryan wins this match.

[In the backstage area Hulk Hogan is walking to the ring seemly ready for his match with Scott Tazte, but out of no where he gets blindsided by Scott Tazte.

King-Or the ref’s are just staying out of…which is unusual.

[Scott Tazte goes into the cover, and Tazte looks like he’s going to make the cover even though the ref’s are staying away from this brawl, and he pulls Hulk up like he was going to get the three count.

.::Ron Simmons::.-DAMN!!

(We fade back into the ring, as the match in the back came to an end and the arena transitioned from its normal lighting, to a pitch black. The only hints of light came from the cellular phones of some of the fans and the titantron. The screen was completely white. Suddenly, the words “a prophetic declaration of what must be” appeared on the screen. The words stayed in place for about ten seconds, then the word “FATE” appeared on the screen. The titantron, as well as the lighting in the arena, finally went back to normal and Return of an Era picked up from where we left off.)

(Jericho is up on the ramp, still grinning as he holds his face. The match concluded and the arena went black once more, a lot like earlier in the show. The titantron seemed to be starting a video. We opened up in an empty courtroom. Suddenly, as the camera journeyed through the courtroom, which had a dark tint to it; as if it had been abandoned, a voice could be heard. It was unclear as to whom this voice belonged to.)

["Game On" by Disciple starts playing as Tony "The Badd Boy" Ikeda comes out from the back. He is wearing his wrestling pants but also a black and white referee's shirt with the sleeves removed. He makes his way down to the ring and slides in. He jumps up in the corner of the ring and poses. He then gets down and waits to officiate the match.]

Jim Ross: I guess we'll find out tonight if Tony Ikeda is a fair referee or if he's already picked a winner.

The King: Come on now JR, it's not like Tony Ikeda would EVER have his own agenda in mind.

Kris Gaffney: Tony will definitely be the deciding factor in this match one way or another.

The King: Don't reword JR and try to sound smarter.

["Swagger Like Us" by T.I. starts playing as The Sensational Mike New comes out from the back with his half of the EMF tag team championships. He walks down the ring and slides into the ring.

Jim Ross: This is a back and forth one, they both want this victory.

The King: Is there ever a time someone doesn't want to win?

Kris Gaffney: Yeah, when the prostitutes draw straws on who's going to become your next wife.

[Mike New gets up frustrated and starts to help Jarred Carthallion to his feet. Mike grabs Jarred's head looking for a suplex but Jarred stops the momentum and ends up lifting Mike New into the air.

With that Mike New hops down and Jarred stumbles forward.]

Jim Ross: Mike New is trying to whip Jarred Carthallion lik a government mule.

The King: That won't last long JR. It only takes one mistake.

Kris Gafney: Your mom knows that all too well.

The King: If you don't watch your mouth you and I will be in the ring next.

[Mike New jumps back up on the middle turnbuckle. Jarred turns around, see's Mike New getting ready to leap and Jarred first runs toward Mike and delivers a dropkick. This causes Mike New to go backwards over the ropes and fall to the outside. Jarred falls down catching his breathe. Mike New tries to start climbing to his feet and Jarred gets up inside the ring. Jarred rolls to the outside of the ring. Mike New and Jarred start trading blows as Tony Ikeda starts his ten count again. After trading a few blows back and forth Jarred blocks a punch, and delivers a kick to the mid section. He then grabs Mike and rolls him into the ring. Jarred follows right in. Jarred grabs Mike and throws him into the turnbuckle. Jarred starts hammering on Mike New in the corner and Tony starts a count ...1...2...3...4...5! Tony reaches a five count then grabs Jarred and tries to seperate the two. Jarred elbows Tony as he's trying to interfere. This knocks Tony back a step. Jarred then turns around to Tony Ikeda and starts yelling at him for his interference. Tony yells back and shoves Jarred.]

Jim Ross: This is the moment everyone feared. We could have a whole new slobberknocker on our hands.

The King: He can't put his hands on Jarred, he's the referee.

Kris Gaffney: Tony doesn't seem to think that elbow was a mistake.

[Jarred Shoves Tony back harder knocking him to the ground. While this happens Mike New comes out of the corner. Jarred turns around only to receive a kick to the stomach and a FACEBUSTER. Tony Ikeda rolls out of the ring and grabs a chair. He slides into the ring with it and yells at Mike New to lift Jarred up. Mike New does lift Jarred up and holds Jarred's arms behind his back. Tony picks the chair up to face level, gives it a kiss for good luck with a cocky grin, he then rears back and gets read to swing. AS he swings Jarred wiggles free and ducks down. There appears to be an attempt at hesitation on Tony's part but he can't stop himself and he whallops Mike New with the chair. Jarred goes for the cover as Tony drops down immediately and counts the ...1....2....3! Jarred Carthallion wins the match.]

The King: He missed Jarred but still counted the three on Mike New. I think he was pulling for New.

Jim Ross: I don't think he missed at all King. I think he hit his intended target.

Kris Gaffney: He was just hoping Jarred was going to move.

[Jarred Carthallion and Tony Ikeda stand up. The tag team championship belts are passed into the ring. Tony Ikeda hands one half of the championships over to Jarred Carthallion proclaiming him the official other half of the tag team champions. As they celebrate pyrotechnics fire out from the turnbuckles and the arena is set in a crimson red glow.]

Jim Ross: Bah Gawd King what is going on!?

The King: It's KANE!

Kris Gaffney: Something tells me he isn't here to just say hello.

["Veil of Fire" is playing as Kane walks out from the back. He moves quickly down the ramp and adjusts his glove. He gets up on the ring apron and high steps the rope.

Kane and Mike New continue staring as Tony Ikeda and Jarred Carthallion continue making their way to the back.]

Jim Ross: Oh my Gawd King, what did we just witness?

The King: I thought Mike New and Kane hated each other?

Kris Gaffney: We also thought Jarred and Tony hated each other.

Jim Ross: We're going to have to see what plays out in this one.

JR-The Rock! The Rock has finally done it!

(The Rock rolls out of the ring as Tony Ikeda is stomping around angry, as the Rock raises the world championship to the crowd.)

(As the show got ready to come to an end, the arena went dark for it’s third time. The camera focused solely on the titantron screen once more. This time, there was no video, or white screen. It was just normal. Suddenly, the same voice we heard earlier began to echo throughout the arena.)

Voice: I told you all to be ready. He is here…

(The arena was in complete silence for about 30 seconds after the person was heard then, a song started playing.)

Song: "I remembered black skies
The lightning all around me
I remembered each flash
As time began to blur
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve"

(The song was unfamiliar, but the individual who stepped forward a few seconds later was not…)

(Out came Ricky Ramon, a somewhat familiar face in the EMF. The crowd gave a loud burst for a reaction, but it faded rather quickly. Ramon sported a new haircut and a black T-Shirt, a pair of blue jeans and black loafers. He had a microphone in his hand. He stood at top of the ramp and scanned the arena. He had a devious smirk on his face as he waited for the right moment to speak…After a few more moments of sulking in the atmosphere, he put the microphone to his mouth and began to speak.)

Ricky Ramon: I gotta say, I’m a bit surprised that I got any kind of positive reaction from you. Not to sound doubtful, but, obviously, its been a while. Three years to be exact…

(Ramon paced around before continuing.)

Ricky Ramon: …I only found it befitting to return at an event like return of an era…I know coming from me such a bold statement seems a bit far fetched when applied to me, but I beg to differ. You see, when I left this place, I didn’t have multiple World Championship reigns. Hell, I didn’t even win it once. On paper, my Intercontinental, extreme and television championship reigns may seem partially impressive, but nothing that puts me over the top, right? …WRONG. Because in an industry like this, what’s presented on paper is inferior to what is presented in reality. Which brings me back to the point that I was initially making. The name of this event matches my return because I AM indeed the return of an era. I solely represent what success in this business is meant to be. When I left the EMF, I was a kid on a roll…but now that I’m back, I’m a man on a mission…I know you people are all thinking to yourselves that I shouldn’t be here preaching to you. But the fact of the matter is, up to this point of my life, I’ve EARNED everything that I have received, including the privilege to walk out here and explain myself. I have already proven that I am the last of a dying breed, and believe you me, if you all are not persuaded as yet then god be my witness there’s only a matter of time until you are.

(Ramon paused as he received mixed reactions from the capacity crowd in attendance. He waited for them to simmer down then continued.)

Ricky Ramon: Now that you’re all done with your ruckus, I’ll go ahead and continue…as I was saying, you all will eventually be persuaded that I am…IT. I can’t figure out a more perfect way to describe myself and what I offer…You see, if there’s one thing that I have never lacked, it’s confidence. I’m not like these naïve youngsters that are plaguing the EMF who come out here week after week after week acting like slaves to you people. These guys they…they come out here and put on a bunch of phony Barbie doll smiles and wave like the royal family just to make sure that you all can go home and sleep at night knowing that at least someone cares for you… (He paused) …Yeah, I know I sound a bit harsh and yeah I know that this business is about entertainment but I speak the way I do because I’m aware that reality is cruel and I am quiet capable of entertaining whether or not I have thousands of cheerleaders behind me every time my theme music plays…But, with that aside, back to the primary topic…I am back in the EMF to claim it as mine. There isn’t a soul in that locker room than can come anywhere near my talent. You can show me any one wrestler who finds himself to be and I’ll show you a fool…You people may have your favorites but I guarantee that they cannot nor will not measure up to me…That video earlier defined the word fate as a prophetic declaration of what must be, and what must be is me atop the throne…Because everyone backstage, I am their juror and I am all of your juror…

(Ramon paused. The uptight and serious face that he had loosened up and eventually produced a smirk. He then slowly put the mic back to his mouth and said…)

Ricky Ramon: …and I decide your fate.

(Ramon’s music played and he let off one more smile at the weary crowd. He turned around and went backstage as Return of an era came to it’s conclusion.)
