10 Reasons TNA's The Final Deletion Was A Shakespearean Level Masterpiece
7. Their Use Of Weapons Was Next Level Violence
In what can only be interpreted as a nod to America's Independence Day, celebrated just one day prior to this epic showdown taking place, once the action between the two men had broken down into uncontrolled chaos they took to using the most dangerous weapons ever wielded in a pro wresting match.
We've seen death matches in Japan involving exploding rings. With actual bombs. ECW gave us the infamous bout between The Rotten brothers where they covered their hands in shards of broken glass and maimed each other for less than the cost of a fast food value meal. John Zandig in CZW has thrown men off of warehouse roofs into the backs of pick-up trucks and has himself been actually suspended from meat hooks for his "art." Deam Ambrose - prior to joining WWE, of course - used an electric knife in a wrestling match and we all remember New Jack literally trying to bleed a teenager to death.
But for Matt and BROTHER NERO none of those armaments were sufficient for the amount of bloodthirst fueling their battle. They tried kendo sticks, ladders and various other tools rednecks typically have laying around their yard, but when it came time to get ugly, these savages broke out the fireworks.
Yes, you read that right. Fireworks.
Matt grabbed a giant roman candle and began launching live rounds of hellfire at his brother, who deftly handled his trashcan lid shield as skillfully as Jon Snow deflecting arrows from Ramsay Bolton. When Matt's ammo was exhausted he assumed he had conquered BROTHER NERO and confidently approached him to secure the win.
But amidst the smoke, BROTHER NERO hid, ready to strike. Matt discovered his rival now armed with a roman candle of his own, shouted "Oh sh*t!" and fled to find cover.
Was he successful? You bet he was.
