Left Alone - Zero 9:36
The song would play over the PA system as a live crowd begun to grow to their feet cheering. They knew what was coming as this blockbuster match would come of an earlier confrontation during the show.
It was Trent coming out at this time as he would have changed into his normal gear at this point. Tights, boots, and his tape and his left elbow pad. The Minnesota star seemed to be excited to dish a deal of pain to his opponent for the sake of his friend.
Samantha: "Introducing at this time. Representing APEX. Weighing in tonight at 242 lbs, from St. Paul, MN. TREEEEEENT!"
The crowd would roar as Samantha nailed the introduction for Trent. Meanwhile the Initiator made his way down the ramp, high fiving some fans here and there.
Upon reaching ringside, Trent took a left turn, climbed the steps, walk along the apron, and finally enter the ring through the ropes. Walking around the ring as he felt the energy of the live attendance surge through him, as well as the venomous blood in his veins ready to beat some sense into Tiger Hat for his first match back.

やった ~! (Yatta!) After a screeching shout, “Boy Be A Tiger” began to play, and a man dressed in orange garb walks out onto the ramp. He had two very noticeable features... An orange striped tail, and a hat shaped like a tiger... the Tora No Boushi... the TIGER HAT! While independent wrestling fans across the world would normally be cheering for a plucky underdog, tonight was different. The fun and daring-do aura was gone, replaced with a disdain for everyone around him. With a sneer, Tiger Hat began his slow walk down to the ring. His head was foxed forward, making no eye contact with the fans, who had begun to boo him relentlessly, still bitter from his actions at the previous show. Getting to the ring, he slid under the bottom rope, quickly getting to his feet, almost launching himself forward towards the opponent in a low stance. A fake out; he quickly relinquished, retreating a couple of steps with his back straightened. He did not raise his arm, or try to rally the crowd. He knew what he was here for, in this desperate place, and it was not for them. He took a deep breath, stretching his right arm as the bell rang. He was clearly deeply unhappy with having to perform tonight, and was not going to make it an easy match for his opponent.

Such sad faces the man was making. It almost broke Trent's heart. Obviously Tiger Hat did not enjoy being here, but maybe through combat the Initiator could paint some sort of smile on his opponents face, or maybe he might get carried away. After all, this is the guy that slammed his friend with a knee, last show.
Trent would maintain a gaze with Tiger Hat from across the ring. All the way up until the official would call for the match to begin.

Tiger Hat slowly inched forward, locking eyes with Trent. His eyes were sharp, unblinking. He knew he was at a weight disadvantage - a perennial curse of his wrestling career, given his stature - so he would need to play this carefully. Every position needed to be an advantage, or there was a very real risk of his Apex opponent putting him in serious danger.
A few seconds began to feel like an eternity as Tiger felt a bead of sweat drip down his neck. Time seemed to move in slow motion as he began his movement. He was to dart forward, leaping almost, as he would attempt to force Trent into a lock-up, hoping that his quick start and speed would put him in a strong position of leverage.

Tiger Hat would spring, just a Tiger, some would say. Pouncing on Trent, giving him not as much time as he would like to respond to the grapple. Forcing Trent back for a moment.
But the longer the hold between the two, the more even the lock-up became as Trent looked to power his way back to at least a neutral stance.

Tiger knew Trent was the stronger of the two, with a clear weight difference between the competetors. He dug his feet in as Trent muscled his way towards the advantage. Knowing that this position was folly, he would attempt to avert the situation by darting right, ducking under the lock-up to try and get behind Trent, hoping to catch him in a rear waist lock, a clearly superior position.

Tiger sure was slippery, although he already knew that in a figurative way. But he was also physically slippery as he slipped past the lock-up and would take Trent's wrist with him, getting a solid wrist-lock out of his maneuvering.
Trent would bring his upper body lower to lessen the pain as he now had to think of a way out of the hold.

Now in a far better position, Tiger Hat would press the advantage. Keeping a firm hold, he pushed forward, aiming to maneuvre Trent into the ropes, following him tightly, refusing to loose his hold, keeping his body close to his opponent so as to leave him little room to wriggle out of the lock.

Trent would be forced back from the hold, Trent grabbing the ropes he was almost ran into, in order to break the hold. Better to use less energy to break the hold if he has an easy out.
The official approached Tiger, starting the count.

Tiger kept the pressure up as the official counted.
"1! 2! 3-"
Tiger began to back up just over halfway through the count, raising his arms as he took a step backwards. He had a split second to take advantage, to perhaps prepare himself or readjust his position, taking a breath while planning ahead. He decided - or rather, his instict decided - to take a different approach.
Instead, he chose to swing a slap towards the back of Trents head, a blatant display of disrespect to his opponent.

The gall of the man to slap someone on the back of their head, let alone the guy who just betrayed his brother a show ago.
Trent would look up at Tiger Hat and begin to try and charge the dastardly dud, but the official tried to keep the two separated for a moment since Trent had just released the rope that broke the hold

The crowd did not like that Tiger had just slapped Trent, and their loud, obnoxious noise made it very clear that Tiger was not welcome in WWF:G. Tiger didn't care. He didn't want to be welcome in this Hell of their making.
Tiger noticed Trent begin to charge a little too late, and took a step back in an instinctive panic. Luckily the ref intervened, giving him a moment to fix his facade back to one of confidence. He puffed up his chest and began to taunt Trent as the ref pushed him meekly back.
"What? What are you going to do about it?"

Trent would respond to the referees attempts at pushing him back by stepping back against the ropes and waiting for him to step away.
Tiger Hat better be ready because as soon as the official moves out of the way, he will have to pay for the disrespect.

The official waved his arm down, signalling that the match could continue. Tiger froze in the moment; he was very much aware that what he had done would no doubt anger Trent, but he hadn't planned any steps further than that. He managed to raise his arms in a slightly defensive stance, bracing for the onslaught, but had little time to do much else, and for the most part was unprepared to capitalise on the break.
