9,021 fans pack the arena as fire, explosions and confetti fill the air. Creed's "Overcome" blares and the fans cheer and applaud.
JBL: Hello. I'm JBL...
Joey Styles: and I'm Joey Styles.
JBL: And we're bringing you HCW from Louisville, Kentucky! We've got an exciting match for you tonight that will decide the HCW Champion!
Warrant's "Cherry Pie" blares as Cherry makes her way out to the ring. She enters and Super Crazy hands her his microphone.
Cherry: Yeah! Keep the noise going people!
The crowd continues to cheer and scream.
Cherry: Alright, alright. I have a couple announcements before tonight's show gets underway. We will have an 18 man elimination battle royal. Because Evan Bourne did so well representing our brand at the Draft Special, I have awarded him the eighteenth and final spot in the match. Tonight's match will NOT be to crown a champion however.
The crowd moans and boos.
C: As I said, it will be 18 men total. Once we get down to the final 8 competitors, those men will automatically qualify for the HCW Title Tournament, to culminate at our first Pay Per View, "Sky's the Limit"! I'll give you back to Super Crazy now who will finish explaining the rules of the match, I hope you enjoy!
Cherry exits the ring and joins JBL and Styles at commentary.
JBL: Nice to see you boss. Very innovative concept to the Battle Royal!
C: You too John. How are you doing over there Joey?
JS: I'm great!
Super Crazy: This is an 18 man, over-the-top-rope Battle Royal to determine the 8 seeds fore the HCW Title Tournament. To eliminate a competitor, they must be thrown over the top rope, and both feet must touch the floor. When the final eight competitors are reached, eliminations will continue to determine where they will be seeded in the tournament. The last man in the ring will get the #1 seed in the tournament!
