Loving all the recent developments - I think the Prophecy with Raven, Fallen Angel Christopher Daniels and Percy Pringle might be my favourite. Matt getting released has confused me unless it’s all part of the angle! Keep it up. This is up there with my favourite Fan Fic of all time.

He was so mad I turned him heel that he asked for his release. It wasn't part of the plan AT ALL. However, I don't see the point of keeping someone there who doesn't want to be there so when a guy asks for their release, I give it to them. It totally caught me off guard. So in the words of Bruce Prichard, "Plans change, pal."

CARD

The Blassie Cup-Semi Finals
Cactus Jack versus The Rock
In quite possibly the biggest upset of the tournament, Cactus Jack got an upset victory over Bret Hart in the second round. Now, he faces probably his biggest challenger yet when he goes one on one with The Rock. These two have been friends and partners on occasion, so they’re not strangers to each other. Which man will come out on top?

The Blassie Cup-Semi Finals
Dean Malenko versus Rey Misterio, Jr.
Dean Malenko manipulated his way to the semi finals by luring Chavo Guerrero, Jr. to help him get the win. Now, Malenko has always been one of the best wrestlers on the roster, but this will prove if he really has what it takes to win a major event. Rey Misterio, Jr. has been to the top of the mountain many times, and he would love nothing more than to add The Blassie Cup to his list of accolades.
