*** MATCH 4: (AEW) STEEL CAGE FINALE ***

CM PUNK vs. JON MOXLEY w/ Paul Heyman

No wrestling attire as both of these men arrive ‘Dressed as you are’ …. This is what steel cage matches are designed for: to end what has perhaps been the Feud of the Year in IWA once and for all and this one lives up to the hype …. PUNK is already in the cage as HEYMAN and MOXLEY make their way out …. HEYMAN has the mic and asks MOXLEY to wait outside and he enters the cage …. He says that he and PUNK used to be friends and whether PUNK believes it or not, HEYMAN has always looked out for what is best for him …. he wants to give PUNK one more chance to call this off …. There is no shame in it and, as his friend, he is asking PUNK to walk away …. If he doesn’t take this last offer, then HEYMAN can’t be responsible for what MOXLEY will do inside the cage …. This way MOXLEY can move on and PUNK can still have a future in this business, just not in AEW …. PUNK seems to be thinking about it, and he takes the mic and says that he has never given up in his life and that is why he is standing here today …. He never gave in to peer pressure, or drugs or alcohol, because he is straight edge, and straight edge means he is better than MOXLEY! Punk hits HEYMAN in the head with the microphone!  HEYMAN is busted open!  PUNK with a suicide dive THROUGH the cage door wipes out MOXLEY and here we go!!!!

The fight rages on outside the ring, with Punk beating MOXLEY all around the outside of the cage!  MOXLEY resorts to a thumb to the eye to get PUNK off of him, and he actually climbs the side of the cage and into the ring to escape from him!  PUNK recovers and climbs after MOXLEY, but MOXLEY climbs up and meets PUNK at the top of the cage and they fight there …. Both men slug it out at the top of the cage, and both men end up knocking each other down, and they both straddle the top ropes!  The ref locks the door and the match is underway!  PUNK and MOXLEY are to their feet and they meet in the ring and it’s a hockey fight!  MOXLEY targets the injured ribs of PUNK, but PUNK battles back with a Pepsi Twist …. PUNK stakes turns slamming MOXLEY’s head into all 4 corners of the cage, raking his head along the chain link and MOXLEY is quickly juiced!  PUNK scoops MOXLEY up and is going to finish it with the GTS, but MOXLEY rakes the eyes and slips off behind him and kicks him right between the legs!  Now it is MOXLEY’s turn to punish PUNK by ramming his face into the cage, and it is not long before both guys are bleeding all over the place …. MOXLEY goes for the Paradigm Shift, but PUNK gets a double leg and catapults MOXLEY into the corner!  Running knee in the corner by PUNK and he hits the bulldog for a 2 count ….PUNK keeps going for the GTS, but MOXLEY keeps escaping and MOXLEY hits the pendulum lariat to take PUNK down …. Both men slow to get up again, but MOXLEY decides to climb the cage to try to escape!  PUNK is up and climbs as well, catching MOXLEY by the foot ….  MOXLEY tries to kick him off, but PUNK locks MOXLEY’s foot in the top of the cage!  PUNK fires off a series of headbutts and MOXLEY falls, hanging precariously upside down by his foot …. MOXLEY recovers, and PUNK reaches the top of the cage and both men are straddled on the top of the cage battling it out …. PUNK grabs MOXLEY and these guys are standing on top of the cage!!!!  SUUUUUUUUUUPEEEEEEEER-PLEEEEEEEEEX!!!!!!!!

ROSS – “As God as my witness they are broken in half!!!!  Somebody get some help out here for these two men!  If you can hear me in the back, get someone out here!”  

CROWD – “HOLY SHIT!  HOLY SHIT!”  


Both men are lying motionless in the ring and the ref throws up the ‘X’ sign and is calling to the back for help.  The EMT’s come out and check on both guys …. The match completely STOPS at this point …. The EMT’s are working on both men now, and it is a few minutes before either PUNK or MOXLEY is able to move on their own …. Both men are placed in a hard collar, and here come dual stretchers from the back!  MOXLEY and PUNK are helped out of the ring and loaded onto the separate stretchers and they start to wheel them out of the arena and the fans are not too happy about this …. The cameras follow the two stretchers as they are wheeled up the ramp toward the back, but looks over and sees MOXLEY laying on the stretcher next to him, and something causes him to snap!  PUNK pulls himself off the stretcher, fighting against the EMT’s trying to get him to lay down, AND ATTACKS MOXLEY WHILE HE’S STILL ON THE STRETCHER!!!!  PUNK LOCKS IN THE ANACONDA VICE ON MOXLEY AS HE IS STILL STRAPPED TO THE STRETCHER!!!!  The crowd is going fucking nuts at this point.  The EMT’s restrain PUNK momentarily, allowing MOXLEY to escape and he heads back toward the ring!  PUNK follows and they brawl down the ramp and back toward the cage, but MOXLEY with a low blow!  PUNK is tossed back into the cage and MOXLEY then goes under the ring and starts grabbing weapons and tossing them into the cage!  

ROSS – “OH MY GOD!  That’s enough!  This is inhuman!”

SCHIAVONNE – “Are you kidding me??? These guys literally want to kill each other JIM!!!!”  


MOXLEY climbs back in the cage and shuts the door …. NOW THE MATCH CONTINUES!!!!  ‘FIGHT FOREVER’ chant by the fans …. WHAT THE HELL???? HE HAS A CHEESE GRATER!!!! MOXLEY ties PUNK in the ropes …. AND USES THE CHEESE GRATER ON PUNK’S STRAIGHT EDGE TATTOO!!!!

AND RAKES IT ACROSS THE FACE OF MOXLEY!!!!  PUNK unfolds a chair in the middle of the ring …. BRAINBUSTER ON THE UNFOLDED CHAIR!  1 … 2 … MOXLEY kicks out!!!!  PUNK locks on the Anaconda Vice, but MOXLEY buries his thumb in PUNK’s eye!!!!  PARADIGM SHIFT!  1 … 2 … Nooooo!  PUNK KICKS OUT!  Here comes PAUL HEYMAN now, his head bandaged from being busted open by PUNK before the match …. HEYMAN tosses MOXLEY a black bag, and MOXLEY pours out its contents, HUNDREDS OF THUMBTACKS!  MOXLEY sits PUNK on the top and he’s going to super-plex PUNK into the tacks!  PUNK fights him off …. PEPSI PLUNGE INTO THE THUMB TACKS!!!!  MOXLEY looks like a human pin cushion!  PUNK grabs a chair and puts it around the neck of MOXLEY …. GO TO SLEEP WITH MOXLEY’s HEAD IN THE CHAIR!!!!  HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!  PUNK isn’t done here ….
