Chapter 648: NBA Battle 2.0
On June 17, 2005, when the finals of the Spurs and Pistons were in full swing, one of the most watched programs in the United States, E RA, was staged at Madison Square Garden in New York as scheduled.
But today's most watched and high-profile matchup is not Randy Orton and John Cena, but the duel between Meng Xu and Ron Artest from the NBA.
"Hello wrestling fans all over the world, welcome to the 641st episode of E RA, I'm Mike Cole, I'm sure you've all heard about the Auburn Hills incident, it's no exaggeration to say that the Auburn Hills incident is one of the largest mass events in the entire history of professional sports in North America, for the NBA, that night is undoubtedly a very dark day, a chaotic and harrowing day, but for us, it's just a very ordinary day, after all, there is such a thing as fighting, It's not news to us at all, don't you? Hahaha"
"Mike, your joke isn't funny at all." Before the start of the recording of the show, E's senior management deliberately got angry with today's two live commentators Mike Cole and Jerry Lawler, hoping that they would try not to mention things related to Auburn Hills in the show, after all, NBA executives and sponsors are now going around for public relations, hoping to downplay the Auburn Hills incident to the greatest extent, so after hearing his partner Mike Cole "say something leaked", Jerry Lawler on the side immediately rounded the show for Mike Cole, and today's show is going to be broadcast live to the world.
"More than half a month has passed since the Auburn Hills incident, but its impact is not over, especially in the NBA Finals that are now underway, because of the Auburn Hills incident, many of the main players of the Detroit Pistons have been suspended, especially Ron Artest, who will miss the entire Finals, so when facing the Western Conference champion San Antonio Spurs, the Pistons were suppressed by the Spurs everywhere, and after four games, they were already taken by the Spurs to the match point." After Jerry Lawler's reminder, Mike Cole also restrained a little, after all, E's senior management had greeted him in advance.
"Alright, let's get down to business, tonight, we've got a couple of special guests, and now let's welcome Ron Artest the Beast with a round of applause! “
After Jerry Lawler's introduction, all the lights on the scene gathered at the exit of the passage, Ron Artest, who was wearing a red cape, waved his fist fiercely, and slowly walked to the sidelines, just when Ron Artest was about to walk to the edge of the ring, Artest suddenly ripped off the cloak on his body, revealing dark and strong muscles, and the new tattoo on his chest was very eye-catching.
"The mysterious guest who is about to appear next, I think everyone has already guessed it, that is Meng Xu! Let's welcome this "Odin" on the basketball court with applause! “
Compared with Ron Otest, who reveals flamboyance everywhere, Meng Xu's appearance is much more bland, wearing a yellow cloak with Odin pattern printed on it, Meng Xu smiled and waved to the surrounding audience, but unlike the cheers when Ortest just appeared, in addition to applause and cheers, Meng Xu was greeted with boos and abuse, after all, this is New York, this is Madison Square Garden, Meng Xu is now beating Jordan and becoming the most hated NBA star in the whole New York.
"Jerry, whether it is Meng Xu or Ron, they are not professional wrestlers and boxers, but their physical strength is not inferior to these professional martial arts athletes, so today's match will definitely be a very exciting and fierce battle!" The physical fitness of Meng Xu and Ron Oteste is the top among the outside players in the entire NBA, even in the strong E, Meng Xu and Ron Otest's size is also at the upper middle level, whether it is Meng Xu or Ortest, both of them are more than two meters tall and weigh more than 240 pounds.
Ron's grandfather was a professional boxer, and his father also competed in amateur boxing, so Ron's talent in boxing is still stronger than many amateur boxers. As for Meng Xu, I have watched that video clip repeatedly, this is really a boxing genius who has been delayed by basketball, I think he can consider changing his career to boxing, hahaha. “
Just when Mike Cole and Jerry Lawler introduced Meng Xu and Artest, while joking, the referee on the stage had already begun to explain today's rules to Meng Xu and Artest in detail, unlike E RA, which had already formulated the plot in advance, the match between Meng Xu and Artest did not have any script, just like the showdown between Carl Malone and Dennis Rodman back then, the two sides will compete under limited rules, but the slight difference is that this time Meng Xu and Artest did not choose a helper, Instead, I chose a one-on-one heads-up.
Karl Malone and Dennis Rodman's NBA battle, which can be called the showdown of the century, made the influence of the C League once exceed E, so when the Auburn Hills group fight broke out, the E League immediately smelled the business opportunity, and contacted Ron Artest's agent, after getting Ron Artest, E League went hand in hand, after Artest's continuous provocation and high appearance fees, E invited Meng Xu, one of the protagonists of the Auburn Hills group beating, after several days of planning, E finally launched the "NBA War 2.0 version" today, and I believe that through this "NBA War", the E League will definitely usher in another explosive development.
"Bastard, I've decided today that I won't let you go!" Just when the referee was still introducing the rules of the game in Rory's rambling manners, Ron Artest, who was obviously a little impatient, slammed his boxing gloves into each other a few times, and then glared viciously at Meng Xu who was not far from him.
In Artest's view, he is undoubtedly the most wronged person in the Auburn Hills incident, not only failed to sneak attack Meng Xu, but was knocked out by Meng Xu on the spot, the most fucked up thing is that Artest, who was lying on the floor the whole time, was the one who was banned the most, 10 bans led to Artest's inability to even participate in the finals of the Pistons and Spurs, this is the first finals in Artest's career, not only can he not play, but he is not even qualified to sit on the sidelines and watch the game, do you say that he is not angry? The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, so after E contacted Artest, Artest sent an invitation to Meng Xu without any scruples, and if he lost in a fight, he had to win it back through a fight.
