The lights in the arena dim down as Ain't About the Money hits the PA.
Ahhhh, ahhhh
Ahhhh, ahhhh
blue and white lights begin to flash while a thin layer of smoke comes across the stage and down the ramp. Flames spring up along the set and the crowd begins to cheer
If you know like I know say
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (you know like I know say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power (say)
Ain't about the money, it's about the power
Finally the former World champion steps out into view and the cheers grow louder. Drako Damone looks out over the arena for several moments before starting to make his way down the ramp
Think about it, think about it
Ain't no need to think about it
Get that Money, keep that power
No they not the same thing
Money can be anybody
This somebody, that nobody
When it comes to power
Circle, super small and maintain
Money make em' do it cause of what you give to em'
Power make em' do it cause you told them to do it
Money make you fly, power never die, don't know why
Money can be lost, power never need an alibi
Blood thicker than the champagne
Power in my pride, power in my last name
"..making his way to the ring, from Saint Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 200 pounds, Drako Damone!!"
Drako stops at the end of the extremely long ramp and look around the arena for a few more moments before he turns and walks up the stairs and into the ring, moving to the center to stretch out right into his old pose. Pyro shoots off behind him, a nice flash to the past for him and he straightens up again
When I'm in your presence you can feel the power
Even if this company was built from powder
Girls, kissin, on the couch, women, in the, shower
Surround, myself with kings, you can keep the cowards
Everytime I reminisce, I'm reppin' different bitches
Blood is thicker than water but BS is the thickest
Let the chain round my neck tell my life story
Born into the money but would die for glory
Get ready for the takeover, that face, lip and makeover
That case, that I break open, that great fifth like Beethoven
If you, wanna get it poppin', I can be in the team
Thirty-four, in a, rocket cause Hakeem's the dream
(Get it? They don't get it)
The Soaring Dragon walks to the corner and steps up onto the second turnbuckle, covering his eyes to look out into the crowd of cheering fans.
Oooh, we're makin' moves
You're only doing what my power let you do
You see that money isn't everybody's thing
When it comes to power, can only be one king
Finally, Drako steps down and removes his vest, getting some stretches in as his music slowly dies out and he awaits the arrival of his opponent

The lights dim to a dark blue as Strange Clouds by B.O.B starts up, the filled stadium gets to their feet!
Bad Boy stepped out to the middle of the giant stage, looking around to the huge Saudi stadium, the massive lights. Observing the surroundings, before taking a deep breath and heading down to the ring.
Wearing his black tights with blue stripe on the sides, and blue waistline. Black boots, black wrist tape with the right blue elbow pad. Black front and blue back vest.
Brad marched down the ramp, a stare at the ring.
Introducing first, now residing in Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing 223 pounds...BAAAAAD BOYYYY!
Brad finally reached the end of the ramp, and looked around the crowd for a moment once more. Then went to walk up the steps and step into the ring. A quick 360 spin before throwing his right fist up, the sparks shoot out of both the ring posts and the screen above the ring. A more specialized pyro showcase for the event as the top of the stadium had pyro go off.
Brad proceeded to peel off his vest and drops it to the outside, he would look directly at Drako, once again across the ring from him!

Drako's return seems to be running through some of his greatest hits. Last show it was Luca, now Bad Boy, one of his longer rivals. The former champ would wonder if that was intentional or coincidence but it doesn't much matter. It's time to get to work.
As the bell rings, the Soaring Dragon steps up to the center of the ring, waiting to see how Bad Boy chooses to meet him this time

Bad Boy stayed in his corner for a moment, watching as Drako moves forward. These two faced off last at Brad's return match, where he took the then World Champion to the limit. At that time he wasn't in full ring shape, and couldn't keep up. Tonight he enters in full gear. Not a bit of rust on his ring style.
He slowly walks to the center of the ring to go face to face with Drako, as the Saudi crowd gets loud.

it's not surprising for the crowd to get loud, given the history here. Not just the more recent history, but also a previous main event at Wrestlemania, and battles years ago going after the Intercontinental title. Battles that admittedly, Drako didn't always come out the winner of. Still, there's no fear in the Soaring Dragon. Last show was a tune up. tonight was a real test of his own ring rust.
That being said, Drako offers a lock up to get things started

Brad shot forward when the lock up was called for, but instead dropped down to a knee and wrapped around Drako looking for a waist lock from behind!

Drako might have been caught a tad off guard there, which was a smart move by Bad Boy. Caught in the rear waistlock, the former champion quickly attempts to pry one of Brad's arms loose, knowing full well that staying stuck this way won't end well for him

Bad Boy feels Drako trying to pull his hands apart, and looks to use the moment to send a Dropkick right in the middle of Drako's back!

well, that wasn't an expected maneuver, as the dropkick can't be avoided if he can't see it coming. Hit right in the back, the Soaring Dragon stumbles forward and falls across the middle rope

Bad Boy got right back to his feet, seeing Drako drop to the middle rope, perfect position! Bad would run and jump forward, attempting to Clothesline Drako across the back of the head into the rope and land on the outside!

Drako finds himself in a prone position here and unfortunately isn't able to pop back up in time to avoid the clothesline, hot shotting him on the ropes and forcing him to drop backwards to the mat, rolling towards the center

Bad Boy slams the apron a few times and turns to the crowd for a moment. Soaking in the reaction from the move, before turning back and pulling himself onto the apron. From there he'd wait for Drako to stand up where he'd attempt a Springboard Dropkick!

Drako begins to make his way to his feet turning as Brad is on the apron and leaping up for the springboard. Acting quickly, the Soaring Dragon launches himself forward to hit the top rope, aiming to take Bad Boy off balance

Bad Boy was knocked from his feet, bouncing stomach first off the top rope! Flipping forward he lands on his back in the ring, forcing his way back up to his feet as he tries to catch his breath!
