Luke Harper vs. Batista

[Jon Huber]

Introducing first...  

[Jon Huber]

A pair of eyes would have flickered onto the big screen, they multiplied as the video clip went by. With that, the song "Swamp Gas" a country/rock type song would have played in the vicinity of the arena. The dynamic lighting would have dimmed down so that it was nearly dark, but not entirely. Luke Harper would have came out from the curtains, unveiling himself, going through to the ramp he walked down spreading his arms taunting. He was wearing a gray tank top that looked like he was sweating all over it, a blue vest, denim jeans that had a sheet tucked in one of the back pockets, and a pair of rugged black shoes. Luke Harper slid into the ring and taunted once more before the lights remained to it's usual self, he maneuvered himself to his corner and took off his vest, rolling it into a ball, and then throwing it out as he waited for his opponent.

The crowd goes dead silent, kids and all. 'The Animal' would burst out that tunnel moments later but the crowd waited...
Suddenly a guitar instrumental sounds from the PA system, part of Batistia's theme song:

'Ｔｈｅ Ａｎｉｍａｌ' Ｂａｔｉｓｔａ

"Walk Alone" by Saliva

The lights brighten up a bit as Batista explodes out the tunnel looking better than he has ever looked. Batista would look all around the crowd who were taking pictures for their own personal reasons. The crowd reactions varied because he didn't indenify heel or face. Nor does he care as he sets up his taunt, he squats and moves his arms while he bended motionlessly, his pyro which goes off after. He'd instant spring to his feet and thrust his fist down for the final pyro to go off. Batista would make his way down the ramp. The announcer, soon after, broadcasts Batistia's name aloud.
Announcer: "Weighing in at 278 pounds from Washington, DC! He is the ANIMAL, BATISTA!"
Batista walks swiftly down to the ring, grinning. He loved competiting in the ring and all the glory that came with it.
He'd reach the stairs and stop immediately and prayed a bit for his lost and loved one, the one and only, Eddie Guerrero before bursting up the stairs. He would get in using the second rope, completing this motion rather slowly he'd look at his opponent(s) and look coldly into their eyes. He'd laugh a bit as his opponent, before going up on the turnbuckle to his right. Batista would take his time on the turnbuckle before stepping down in a jolting fashion. He would glare at his opponent, as the PA system hushes and there is nothing to be heard but the crowd.

Luke Harper worked up both of his arms a bit, walking around in a small circle, sniffing up some air which would be visible because of his beard movement, waiting for the bells to ring as he was giving his opponent Batista a dead glare  

[Demon From Death Valley]

Batista was an animal, he didn't fear any man. His goal was to destroy Luke Harper. Batista would glare back with if not equivalent but more aggressive expression.  

[Jon Huber]

The bells would have called for the start of the match Luke Harper removed himself from his corner to start circling the ring  

[Demon From Death Valley]

Batista would jump up and down staying somewhat close to his corner, waiting for Harper to attack first.  

[Jon Huber]

Luke Harper stepped forward with one of his feet, he would quickly grab Batista and try to put him into a collar and elbow tie up  

[Demon From Death Valley]

Batista would lock up but quickly looked to gained the upper-hand, he went for a solid uppercut.  

[Jon Huber]

Luke would eat the uppercut, he stumbled back onto the nearest corner, having his back touch the padding  

[Demon From Death Valley]

Batista rushed Luke Harper and went for several right/left combination.  

[Jon Huber]

Harper was taking the hits, however he suppressed some of the hits by holding his forearms up to his face  

[Demon From Death Valley]

When Luke Harper raised his arms Batista stopped his assault with his hands and opted for a high knee to the gut of Harper.  

[Jon Huber]

Harper was slightly bent over, favoring his gut feeling the effects of the subtle gut kick by Batista  

[Demon From Death Valley]

Batista pressed himself against the bent over Luke Harper and to Irish whip him to the opposite turnbuckle.
