Welcome to the Dark Side

SummerSlam

The Biggest Party of the Summer is underway. Plenty of great matches have happened already, but everyone is waiting for fan favorite DJ "Trick" Williams to compete against Solo Sikoa's new Bloodline. The night before, on SmackDown, the World's Strongest Monster came to his rescue and tore through the Bloodline when the General Manager of SmackDown demanded that DJ and Duncan find a third partner to compete in a Three-on-Four Handicap Tag Match. Backstage, Duncan is warming up while his manager AJ Lee looks on, when DJ Williams walks in.

DJ: You got a third man yet?

AJ: Let's just say...I called in a few favors from an old acquaintance. You could call me a friend of the family.

DJ: He's gonna help us?

AJ: He's not here to help us. He's here for something the Bloodline can't replace.

DJ: As long as Solo gets what's coming to him, I don't care what he's here for. Whoever he is.

Match Time

DJ "Trick" Williams stands in the ring across from the Bloodline as AJ Lee and Duncan enter. The World's Strongest Monster roars while his sinisterly deranged manager/girlfriend grabs a mic from the timekeeper's area.

AJ: Now, I maybe...a little crazy...but I can count. I'm aware there's only two competitors and we were told to bring a third man, even though my Monster...the World's Strongest Monster...can take all of you alone...

Duncan flexes his arms and nods with a smug look of strength mixed with confidence spread across his face.

AJ: So...I made a call...of sorts. It's not easy getting a hold of people on their side of existence, but after promising the one thing you can't replace, they were eager to accept.

As soon as the theme hits, the crowd bursts into cheers of excitement and confusion as the one and only Julia Hart steps out onto the stage, singing along in a creepy, nonchalant style while her arms are reached out to the sides.

She comes to a stop at the top of the ramp before the lights shut off completely, drowning the WWE Universe in the thick veil of shadowy darkness. Then, a familiar theme plays...only this time, it has a sinister twist to it.

As soon as the beat drops, the black and blue clouds roll and Caleb Winters reveals himself.

He holds his gloves in the air, only they have a new marking on the palms. Instead of showing his initials, they show the white outline of the cross of the Undertaker. With zero emotion, the two walk down to the ring together for the time since the indies. Not many people know that about the two, but this is not their first time teaming up.

Winters climbs the stairs while Julia slips through the ropes. Caleb raises his gloved hands, forming the symbol of the Undertaker on his palms while Julia stands on the second rope with her arms out wide, making for an awesome visual.

Julia hops down and joins Winters, standing behind him. Caleb sheds his jacket in a slow, methodical manner, never breaking eye contact with Solo. Fans have never seen Winters this laser focused. Something has changed since he was buried by the Undertaker. There were rumors that he himself has become the next Deadman, but no one had any definite answers. He hands the jacket backwards to Julia, who grabs it while also maintaining her own stare at Solo.

AJ skips over to the ropes and steps out of the ring while Julia slowly walks backwards over to them and dips through, not breaking her gaze at the opposition until she climbs down the apron. Caleb, DJ, and Duncan remain in the ring and lock eyes with their opponents. Duncan is the first to step out of the ring and onto the apron. Caleb takes a few steps back, his eyes burning holes in Solo's soul, then steps through the ropes and takes his place on the apron.

The ref rings the bell, allowing DJ and Tama to start the match off. The two go back and forth, taking turns of who is in control. Elbows, fists, headbutts, and kicks fly. Tama backs DJ against the ropes and goes to whip him across the ring. Knowing he has to break the cycle, Williams hits a desperate Angle Slam.

Both men crawl across the ring. At the same time, they leap to make the tag. Duncan runs in as soon as he's tagged in while Jacob Fatu does the seem. Unfortunately, no matter how strong Fatu is, he isn't as strong or as powerful as the World's Strongest Monster as he's immediately bulldozed with a shoulder tackle.

Duncan doesn't stop there. He attacks each member of the Bloodline that he can get his large hands on, proving what AJ said earlier to be a fact. The ring turns into a battleground as shoulder tackles, big boots, and overhead chops across the chest dismantle each member of the Bloodline present until the ring is cleared with the exception of one.

As Duncan goes to attack Solo, he turns his head back to see AJ smiling and shaking her head no, silently telling Duncan that Solo Sikoa is not his to destroy. The World's Strongest Monster nods, then turns back to Jacob. He whips and slams him around with various back body drops, scoop slams, and even a couple sidewalk slams. The WWE Universe has never seen anyone take the fight to the Bloodline like this, let alone make them look weak.

Jacob doesn't like it one bit and stands back up. He sends a flurry of jabs and crosses at Duncan. The big man is backed up a little before shutting down all offense with a huge headbutt, flattening Fatu without a care.

The infamous thick skulls all members of the Samoan Dynasty have reigns true as Duncan has to take a second to regroup. While he recuperates, Fatu, rolls over and crawls to Solo. They make the tag as Duncan gets to his feet. That's when AJ walks over to where Duncan can see her and shakes her head.

AJ: He's not yours!

She shouts, then smiles again. AJ slowly moves her finger that's pointing at Solo over to Winters. As she giggles to herself, Julia smirks knowingly. The monstrous man breathes heavily for a moment, but ignores his own anger. He backs up to the corner and holds his hand out. Caleb stares at Solo as he makes the tag and enters the ring.

Solo shakes his head and runs straight at Winters. Unfazed, Winters hits him with a quick forearm strike to the jaw. He lights Solo up with a combo of forearms, chops, kicks to the legs, and a spin-around clothesline to finish it off.

Winters drags Solo off the mat by his arm, then strikes the shoulder with several elbow strikes and shoulder barges. He twists it even more, then walks across the top rope before hitting an Old School. As he walks across the ropes and hits the move, Julia smirks devilishly, relishing in the pain he's causing Solo.

Solo stands back up quickly, but is booted in the stomach. The other Bloodline members try to get back in the ring, but are stopped by DJ and Duncan. DJ locks Tama in an Ankle Lock while Blake runs through the others with the continuous tackles around the ring that's come to be known as the Pain Express.

In the ring, Solo is sent crashing face first into the mat with a wicked Bonechurch from Winters, who rolls them both over and pins Solo to three for the victory.

None one can celebrate their victory, as Julia looks towards the ramp and beckons someone or something forward. The lights shut off, then the arena is filled with the Gregorian Chant of the eerie monks of the Undertaker the Druids.

The cloaked beings walk down to the ring, wheeling a casket with them. The fog rises and the blue-purple lighting causes everyone in attendance to know what's about to happen. The casket is placed ringside. The Druids back away and become silent as Julia approaches, almost as if in reverence of her. They keep their respectful distance as Julia walks over to the casket and gently runs her fingers across the lid.

She looks up at Winters, then walks to the head of the casket with a small smile. She points at two of the Druids, then gestures for them to proceed. They walk over to the casket and open the lid. The Druids hold it open while Caleb crosses Solo's lifeless arms across his chest and rolls him into the casket. Winters remains on one knee as the Druids shut the lid. Julia watches on with a devilish smile. Tonight, they claimed their first victim. At the Biggest Party of the Summer, Julia Hart and Caleb Winters have taken the first of many souls.
