10/5/18: ECW Hardcore Happening #15

Interview:
Raven's Nest interview

("Come Out and Play" by The Offspring played as Raven's Nest: ECW World
Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, Raven, Christopher Daniels, Scotty Anton and
Umaga came to the ring to boos from the crowd. Raven slumped into the corner
and was handed a microphone by Anton.)

Raven: When a man losses his effectiveness to complete a task, he is useless to
me and my plans. Abyss lacked the explosive, destructive nature that exists
inside Umaga and thus, my Nest now houses the only Samoan I'd trust inside a
wrestling ring. Samoa Joe is the obvious seg-way and thus we shall discuss
Samoa Joe. Joe, I'll give you credit; you've come a long way from when you
started out in ECW. All of a sudden, you've begun using your brain and actually
listening to my warnings. In ECW, you must be prepared for anything that may
arise and since you've enlisted the help of John Cena and Frankie Kazarian,
you're prepared to at least put up a fight. All of this means our lesson is
coming to an end; Samoa Joe, I can only teach you for so long before you're
going to have to go your own way. Joe, another chapter has concluded and your
story is coming to pass. Quote the Raven...nevermore.

(Raven led his Nest out of the ring.)

Interview:
Ken Kennedy and The Necro Butcher interview

("Ghost of the Navigator" by Iron Maiden as Ken Kennedy and Necro Butcher came
to the ring to boos from the crowd.)

Ken Kennedy: Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to formally introduce to all of
you, the most violent, sadistic and deadly force ever to step bare-foot into
ECW. He's not Cactus Jack. He's not Terry Funk. He's not even Sabu. He is much
more than any of those men could ever be. He is THE NECRO BUTCHER!

(Butcher looked out amongst the crowd and attempted to go after fans that were
booing him, but was restrained by Kennedy.)

Ken Kennedy: It's funny that after being beaten down and embarrassed by Cactus
Jack, Tommy Dreamer now calls Cactus Jack his partner. It's amazing how quickly
people forgive and forget, but not me! I think it's fitting that two assholes
like Dreamer and Foley are now joined together as a unit to try and put up a
fight against yours truly and the Necro Butcher. You see, Cactus, Dreamer, you
two are the old and we are the young. You are the battered and we are the
strong. You are the weary and we are coming of age. ECW doesn't belong to
Cactus Jack. ECW doesn't belong to Tommy Dreamer. ECW belongs to
MISTERRRRRR...KENNNEEEDDDYYY! KENNEDY!

(Kennedy and Butcher left the ring to boos from the crowd.)
