GRUDGE MATCH
★★★ BLAK MAGIX ★★★
vs
★★★ RM TAPP ★★★
★★★ BLAK MAGIX ★★★
vs
★★★ RM TAPP ★★★
Both men are in their corners waiting for the bell but their body language is speaking volumes. These men want to hurt each other. Blak Magix who is usually all smiles has a scowl and RM Tapp maintains his shit eating grin.
The bell rings and Magix rushes after Tapp who slides under the bottom rope waving his finger saying no no. Making clear he's still on his own time. Magix rolls out of the ring and gives chase but Tapp slides back into the ring and leans against the ropes motioning for Magix to enter. Magix blindly rushes in and Tapp begins laying boots onto him. Magix grits his teeth but begins shaking off the boots much to Tapp's surprise.
Magix begins firing up and is on his feet as Tapp fires some stiff Forearms. Magix leans back and delivers a sickening backhanded chop to the chest! The sound is like that of a firecracker. Magix takes the arm of Tapp and Irish whips him towards the ropes and as he rebounds, he sends him flying with a hip toss! As soon as Tapp hits the mat Magix does a cartwheel and connects with a basement dropkick to the jaw. That dropkick send a dazed Tapp scrambling up to his feet and to the corner while holding his head.
The Submission Expert takes a bit too long to recover though, turning right around into a forearm smash that sends him flying backwards into the turnbuckle. Magix doesn’t let up and grabs RM’s left arm while simultaneously turning him around looking for a ripcord bicycle knee. However, Tapp gets a little separation with a couple of well placed elbows to Magix’s head before following with a forearm smash of his own. Now back on the offensive, Tapp sets his sights on the left leg of Magix. After a stiff kick to the shin and a sliding forearm smash to the back of the leg, a chop block finally takes Magix down to a knee.
Tapp wastes no time and immediately slaps on a side headlock while shouting to the crowd something about Module 1.6.4, and then executes a picture perfect takedown.
Magix squirms before rolling back and putting Tapp's shoulders on the mat for a quick 1.5 count. Tapps gains back control but Magix kips up out of it and lands on his feet before a quick kick to Tapps chest sending him flat on his back. Magix takes his foot and throws it backwards forcing Tapp to his feet before spinning and connecting with a discus forearm!
With Tapp Dazed he hits the ropes and comes flying in with a corkscrew elbow! Magix begins hyping the crowd up as he yanks him up by the fair before throwing him down with a snapmare takedown. Magix hits the ropes again and hits his 'B-Trigger' knee to the back of the head of Tapps! The impact sends the man rolling to the outside Apron. As he comes over to pull him back in, Tapps pops up and yanks Magix down throat first into the top rope causing Magix to choke a bit and holds his throat.
Tapp takes this moment to scramble into the ring Irish whipping Magix into the ropes while running and rebounding off the opposite side setting up for a lariat. Magix has him scouted though, and ducks under looking to rebound off the ropes himself. He doesn’t get the chance, as he’s interrupted by a forearm club to the back of the head again, followed by Tapp connecting with a quick backstabber. Now back on the ground, and feeling more in his element, TWFKA Tapp Addams hammers his knee into the shoulders of Magix repeatedly. After a vicious looking Fujiwara Armbar, Tapp tries to lock in his patented Full Nelson surfboard combo but a nasty headbutt from Magix stops him in his tracks.
Magix scrambles to his feet and sends Tapp down with a big clothesline! Magix knows the Submission game isn't his Forte and takes a run to the ropes before leaping onto the middle and performs a moonsault crashing down hard onto Tapp. Magix goes for a cover and gets a quick 2 count before Tapp kicks out with aggression. Ford takes the time to snatch him into a chinlock as he wrenches the neck catching his breath. He wouldn't get long however as Tapp begins to fight back up and get to a standing position, Magix still trying to hold on.
Once he can find a better positioning, Tapp spins to the outside of Magix’s grasp, slipping behind him and applying a textbook waistlock. Magix runs forward into the ropes and attempts to slingshot Tapp off of him. But the Wristlock Academy owner maintains his grasp, and rolls backwards, pinning Magix for a two count(with a handful of tights no less). A frustrated Tapp Raises an eyebrow and slaps the mat three times in the direction of the ref. Before standing to his feet grabbing Magix by his neck pulling him to his feet.
Tapp chops Magix in the chest, with a backhand that could be heard up in the nosebleeds. Clutching his chest with his left arm, Magix returns the favor by following up with a chop of his own, sending Tapp turning around and bending over. After a few seconds pass Tapp checks Magix with a forearm smash to the head but is caught off guard by the man returning a flurry of fists to “The Champion’s” head. After following up the combo with a kick to the gut and planting Tapp with his High Impact DDT for 1…2…KICKOUT!
It's Magix's turn to question the Ref about the count. After being assured the count was accurate Blak drags Tapp towards the ropes placing him on the middle rope before taking a run to the opposite side and comes around swinging with a Tiger Feint Kick (619) then sends Tapp stumbling back dazed. Magix hangs on and is outside on the apron before he launches himself forward and connects with a Slingshot Spear! The crowd are making their approval known as Magix slaps his own chest hyping himself up even more. Tapp holds his ribs as Magix smirks seemingly having turned the tide back into his favor.
Blak Magix steps out back onto the apron waiting for the stirring Adam's to get back to his feet. When he does Magix slingshots in again but Adam's hooks him under his arm and quickly drives his head into the mat with a spike DDT! The crowd boo loudly as Tapp sticks his tongue out and begins pointing to his own head yelling out "I'm smarter than all of you!" bicep Flexing arrogantly. Getting back up to his feet, Tapp stomps Magix a few times for good measure before rebounding off the ropes and leveling Magix with a big boot. Tapp then pulls one out of his bag lifting His opponent up and executing a beautiful Blue Thunder Bomb, seemingly taunting Magix. Tapp wastes very little time getting back to his feet stomping the left leg of Magix. Immediately after that he snatches the leg up Locking in his Achilles REAL using his left leg to stomp the back of Magix’s head.
Blak Magix’s hand hovers over the mat but the audience cheering and clapping energize him enough to start crawling towards the ropes. Tapp shakes his head, but Magix does eventually find his way to the bottom rope, but Tapp doesn’t release the hold. He waits until the referee’s count of four before kicking Magix in the head once more causing the man to release the ropes. The audience boos now, a few fans going as far as to throw their trash into the ring. Tapp laughs and shakes his head at the audience. Calling them all subpar fans of wrestling. This decision costs him though, as it allows Blak Magix to grab him by his boot and throw it back making him fall forward. Magix then shows his own submission prowess by Locking in an stf crossface and wrenches back!
Tapp is caught off guard and immediately begins trying to fight out of it but Magix is putting the pressure on even more so. Magix breaks the hold himself before yanking Tapps aways from the ropes by his tights and grabs both of his arms pulling em back a bit before slamming his face into the mat with a Surfboard curbstomp!
Magix grabs Tapp by the waist and now shows off his strength by deadlifting Tapp and hitting a German Suplex with a bridge for 1…2…KICKOUT!
Magix sits up with his eyes wide and stares in shock after the big maneuver as Tapp manages to grab the bottom rope out of instinct. Magix scoots back and scowls as he stands in the corner and begins stomping his foot getting ready for a superkick as the fans begin to chant. "BLAK! BLAK! BLAK! BLAK!" Tapp makes it to his feet and runs right into the boot of Magix. Tapp only goes down to a knee for a second before getting right back up and stepping forward to hit Magix with a Laria- No! He drops down head first to the mat?!?? Magix shrugs his shoulders and pins Tapp hooking a leg for 1…2…NEARFALL!
Magix sits ups and can only shake his head in disbelief. Magix stands up grabbing Tapp by the hair nodding to the crowd chanting his name. He picks Tapp up and puts him onto his shoulders. He signals for his Sudden Silence, but Tapp wriggles Free. Tapp Goes for a roundhouse kick but Magix Ducks underneath. He spins around with a sweeping leg kick but RM Jumps over it. Tapp attempts a pele kick but Magix Side Steps as Tapp slams to the canvas.
Magix yanks Tapp from behind as he hooks both his arms before turning him and drives him into the mat with the Magix Killer! Blak points to the top turnbuckle as the crowd absolutely begin to go crazy as he climbs up top and leaps off looking for his Magix Elbow! But Tapp rolls out of the way and Blak hits the mat hard and holds his sides struggling to get up. As Tapp backs up to the nearest corner, he shakes his head. “What happened to you?” He asks before running at Magix and laying him out with a Shining Wizard! Tapp makes the cover pointing his fingers in the air counting along with the official for the 1…2…3–NO!
Blak Magix kicks out hard! Rolling over onto his stomach shoving RM Tapp off he sits up with his back to Magix. He laughs at him kicking out. As he begins to get up off the mat to continue his offensive onslaught he’s caught by an inside cradle…1…2…NEARFALL!
RM Tapp and Blak Magix both spring to their feet with theirs hands up prepared to fight but Tapp tells him “You should have stayed down…”. Magix looks back at him confused as if he doesn’t have a clue where he is. RM Tapp acknowledges it and says “looks like I finally knocked some sense into you Blak Magix...”
BLAK MAGIX: Who do you think you’re talking to? My name is Bryan Ford…mother f***er!
Ford catches RM Tapp with a kick to the mid-section doubling him over then bounces off the ropes looking for the ‘Bford and After’ bicycle kick but RM Tapp trips the legs of Ford and he grabs the back of his head. Just as Ford begins to sit up RM Tapp bounces off the ropes and drops him once again with a second shining wizard! He makes the desperation cover for 1…2…3!
The bell rings and Magix rushes after Tapp who slides under the bottom rope waving his finger saying no no. Making clear he's still on his own time. Magix rolls out of the ring and gives chase but Tapp slides back into the ring and leans against the ropes motioning for Magix to enter. Magix blindly rushes in and Tapp begins laying boots onto him.

GRAHAM STEVENS: Your winner by pin fall is…RM—TAPP!
After the bell rings Bryan Ford is laid out on the floor and begins to sit up. He shakes his head and looks around visibly confused as the official helps him up. He begins asking the ref "Where am I? Why the hell am I in a ring?"
The official looks just as confused as the medical team make their way out and begin walking with Ford up the ramp administering some tests as he complies but looks around the packed crowd and rubs his temples. The camera fades to black going into the next segment.
CHARLES HUDSON: I think we’ve finally seen the long awaited return of the Bryan Ford! RM Tapp gets the win here tonight at the biggest night of the year for Mainstream Wrestling!
MCKAYLA LEWIS: It’s been months since we seen the old
Bryan Ford. In fact he hasn’t been himself since he suffered the concussion at the hands of the now United States Champion Biggs, but it sure is good to see Bryan Ford back to his senses even if it is in a losing effort. Congratulations to RM Tapp after a hard fought match.
