Drako honestly expected more to come his way but when it doesn't, the Soaring Dragon begins to make his way to his feet again

Nuke smiles and steps forward a little, offering his arm for a handshake again.
"Are you going to be a good sport or not?"
The crowd waited with baited breath, with the first attempt being shunned by Drako.

Drako pushes his hair back from his face, irritated with his old foe.
"Are you going to keep up the goody goody act, or be the Nuke we all know and hate?"
call it arrogant, but at this point, instead of slapping the hand away, the champion would attempt to slap the taste out of Nuke's mouth instead

Nuke suddenly felt his jaw get slapped sideways, his face leaning away and he instinctively grabs his face. A trickle of blood he could feel inside his mouth he wipes away and chuckles.
Not fighting back right away, Nuke just replies.
"If you were half the man that Jarel was, you'd never feel like you were in his shadow. Now go on, show these fans who you really are under the mask you wear."

"Hard to be in his shadow when I'm the reason he's retired."
with that, Drako goes for the gusto, aiming to punch Nuke right in the nose this time. How's that for showing who he really is?

Nuke takes the shot to the nose, rocking him back up against the ropes. The crowd.. the crowd actually began to jeer slightly now, being able to hear some of the words.
Fusion smirked again, walking forward and ready for a third shot seemingly.
A glutton for punishment?

the champion is more than willing to give Nuke what he's asking for, but on his terms, as he would switch to aim low, aiming a kick to the gut that he'd follow with a european uppercut

The kick to the gut was wholeheartedly unexpected, as was the follow-up European Uppercut, which was a page out of his own book.
Nuke staggered backwards and dropped to a knee, catching himself a little without fully going to the mat.
The hardcore Drako fans cheered massively, their main man getting the better of his adversary!

the champ is the champ for a reason, and Drako feels the need to show it. He quickly hits the ropes and rebounds back, aiming to clock Nuke with a Shining Wizard this time

The onslaught continues as Nuke is quickly hit with a Shining Wizard, clocking him hard in the jaw and sending him to the mat almost seeing stars.
Looking up at the mat he decides to kip up to his feet, to the applause of the crowd. He didn't, however, expect the dizziness as he looks uneasy on his feet!

Drako kips up as well, spotting Nuke unstable on his feet. Reaching into the well, he attempts to catch and plant the legend with a standing Uranage, a newer maneuver for him

Even without the dizziness, Nuke would not have expected the uranage as he's slammed hard to the mat.
There is an odd mix of cheers and jeers amongst the crowd, with some mixed chants of 'Drako' and some 'Nuke' ones out there too!

Drako has been training lately, especially prior to Wrestlemania, and the uranage was a move he'd been waiting for the right chance to break out. With Nuke down, the champion would quickly look to go for the pin

Nuke's leg is hooked for a pinfall..
One!
Fusion kicks out early and rolls over slightly. He says low to Drako,
"That was nice, but did you really think you'd get me down that quick?"

Drako smirks.
"Nah, but it didn't feel good did it?"
With that, Drako would aim to punch Nuke in the head again, because why not?
