Jim Ross
We come to live from Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California!
Welcome to FantasyMania XIV: Pupstin vs. Single H!
Jim Ross
It is like a fortress in here, King.
A sold out capacity crowd 69,732 in attendance for what will be the
biggest match in West Coast Cousins history!
Jim Ross
I'm Jim Ross, alongside my broadcast partner, Jerry "The King" Lawler.
And King, can you believe it?
We are just moments away from crowning a record breaking 4x League Champion.
King
I am on the edge of my seat, JR.
There is a big fight feel in the arena tonight.
This is the dream match to end all dream matches in the WCCF!
Jim Ross
Some have called it the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather of Professional Fantasy Managing.
Stone Cold Steve Pupstin and Single H will square off in one on one action.
These two have faced off many times before, but never with so much on the line.
This is more than just bragging rights, King.
This is more than the $150 grand prize.
This one is personal.
This is for the title of the Greatest of All Time.
Two prestigious Champions with 3 League Championships on their resume.
But tonight, one will be crowned the first ever 4x League Champion!
We now take a closer look at our two competitors.
Jim Ross
The toughest SOB in all of West Coast Cousins!
The toughest SOB in all of West Coast Cousins!
Stone Cold! Stone Cold!
Jim Ross
Everywhere that Pupstin walks, he leaves a path of destruction!
Pupstin is raising hell!
Jim Ross
He's done it!
Pupstin has captured the 2014 League Championship
and has won his first Championship in the West Coast Cousins!
Jim Ross
He's done it again!
Kenn Balor is the 2016 League Champion!
Four straight Finals appearances for the Diamond Status Fantasy Manager!
Jim Ross
And there you have it!
Pupstin has done it once more!
He is the 2019 League Champion!
Jim Ross
The greatest Champion of the modern era.
Stone Cold will advance to the Championship Match of FantasyMania XIV!
And he will take on The Game, Single H!
Michael Cole
The King of Kings!
The Cerebral Sandwich.
There is no Fantasy Manager that has more transactions than The Game!
Michael Cole
Constantly looking for ways to improve his team, The Game is never satisfied.
Involved in more trades than any other Fantasy Manager,
The Game always seems to find a way to make the playoffs,
even with poor draft performances in years past.
Michael Cole
The West Coast Cousin's inaugural League Champion!
The 2009 WCCF Champion, Single H!
Michael Cole
The Game has done it again!
The Championship Gold will stay in Seattle
as the defending League Champion has won back to back.
The 2010 League Championship belongs to Single H!
Michael Cole
By the skin of his teeth! Single H has won his 3rd straight League Championship!
The 2011 League Champion!
119.04 - 119.00.
Less than a yard is what separates The Game from The Baugh!
Jim Ross
Decorated WCCF Champions.
The Game and Stone Cold Steve Pupstin!
22 combined playoff appearances, tied for most appearances in the entire league.
First ballot Hall of Famers.
Jim Ross
Combined, these two Fantasy Managers make up over
40% of the Championship Gold in the West Coast Cousins.
Jim Ross
And tonight we will crown a 4x League Champion.
Will Stone Cold finally surpass Single H?
Jim Ross
Or will The Game separate himself from the pact,
winning his first League Championship since 2011?
Jim Ross
We will find out.... next!
*Stone Cold's Music Hits*
Jim Ross
And there you see, Stone Cold Steve Pupstin.
Having beaten Chris Vinson and Alex in the previous two rounds,
Stone Cold has returned to the Championship Match for the first time since 2019.
A lot of critics have said that Pupstin had lost a step over the course of the past few years.
But now as he returns to the grandest stage of them all,
he has quieted the doubters as he makes his way down to the ring.
King
I've never been a fan of his antics, but you have to respect the Fantasy Manager.
No one has been able to replicate the same level of success as Stone Cold.
And tonight, we're going to see if he can take it to the next level.
*Crowd Cheers*
Jim Ross
This hometown crowd is on their feet for the Rattlesnake.
Without a doubt, these fans will be rooting for Pupstin tonight,
but as we just found out before the match, Pupstin will be without
his lead running back Derrick Henry.
Jim Ross
Henry was a large part of what brought Pupstin to the big dance,
but he will have to finish it tonight without him.
*Single H's Music Hits*
Jim Ross
And his opponent tonight, Single H.
He has a lot to prove in this matchup, King.
While facing a lot of success in the early part of his career in the WCCF,
many have come into question just how good he really is.
In an era without a waiver priority and only 10 Fantasy Managers in the league,
some have called his reign on top a fluke.
King
There's nothing fluky about wining 3 Championships, JR.
Especially given that they were won back to back to back.
Jim Ross
Don't shoot the messenger, King.
I'm just stating how the general public views Single H.
King
Well tonight, Single H has the opportunity to win in the Modern Era.
And not only that, but to do it against the one Fantasy Manager
that threatens his claim to the Greatest of All Time.
Jim Ross
He certainly does.
And as we watch his iconic entrance, you can feel the tension in the air.
Jim Ross
The biggest match of all time, this is a ruckus crowd here in San Francisco.
And as these Fantasy Managers face off one last time,
we get set for the Manager Introductions.
Lillian Garcia
Ladies and gentlemen.... the following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!
And it is for the 2022 WCCF League Championship!
*Crowd Cheers*
Lillian Garcia
Introducing first... from Seattle, Washington.
Making his 11th FantasyMania appearance,
holding a Professional FantasyMania record of 10 wins and 7 losses...
He is the 3x WCCF League Champion...
THE GAME, SINGLE HHHHHHH!
Lillian Garcia
And his opponent... from San Francisco, California.
Also making his 11th FantasyMania appearance.
With a Professional FantasyMania record of 13 wins and 6 losses.
The 3x WCCF League Champion...
STONE COLD STEVE PUPSTIN!!!
Jim Ross
One final stare down as these two competitors are set to clash.
The best of the best.
We are seconds away from the start of this match.
Who will be crowned as the Greatest of All Time?
Jim Ross
The bell rings and we are underway!
Right hands by Single H as CeeDee Lamb produces 10 points on Thursday Night.
But back and forth we go, as Pupstin's defense responds back with 10 points of his own.

Jim Ross
Pupstin has the momentum on his side now!
AWS Live Projections falling in his favor.
Jim Ross
Pupstin continues to put together some offense,
but this appears to be a low scoring affair.
King
Defense wins Championships, JR!
Jim Ross
Action spilling to the outside, look out, King!
Only 3.60 from David Montgomery,
as Single H has found an opening!
Clothesline by Single H! Darren Waller with 13.20!

Jim Ross
Back inside the ring now, Pupstin and Homepage exchanging shots.
Pupstin fighting back now, Waddle and Dotson with mediocre showings.
Oh! Double Clothesline!
King
Get up Single H!
Jim Ross
Both Fantasy Managers down now.
But who will find the willpower to get up.
Which Fantasy Manager has what it takes to be
the greatest Fantasy Manager this league has ever seen?
Jim Ross
Back on their feet, flying knee by The Game!
JK Dobbins with 9.30!
Jim Ross
This might be it for Pupstin, can he hold on?
Figure Four Leg Lock!
Will Pupstin tap? Does Single H have what it takes?
This match could end any second now, King.
Jim Ross
Mahomes with 25.52!
The highest score of any player in this match!
Stunner! Stunner!
1...2... KICKOUT by Single H!
And we are now down to Monday Night.
90.62 - 82.90 and a touchdown from Tee Higgins may be all it takes, folks.
It all comes down to this, we are in for a close finish!
Jim Ross
Family Tree by Single H!
This isn't looking good for Pupstin,
Single H is on the verge of becoming the Greatest of All Time!
Jim Ross
1..2.. KICKOUT by Pupstin!
But Pupstin has an uphill battle to face here on Monday Night.
AWS analytics giving Pupstin at 39% chance of winning.
Can he hold onto this 8 point lead?
Jim Ross
Wait a minute...
what the hell is this? It's Mr. McMahon!
King
I thought he was in jail!
Mr. McMahon
Stop the match!
I am ordering that this match be postponed!
Jim Ross
What?
King
What is happening, JR?
Earl Hebner calls a stop to the action.
Jim Ross
I have no idea, King.
This is as bizarre of a scenario as I have ever seen.
Folks, this is unprecedented circumstances.
Mr. McMahon calling a halt to the match.
Single H
What the hell is going on, Vince?
Mr. McMahon
I have to call a stop to this, damnit!
Single H
What for?
I still have more than 3 quarters left to play!
Jim Ross
Wait a minute! From behind!
Stunner! Stunner by Pupstin!
Mr. McMahon
Restart the match, Hebner!
Go! Go!
The bell rings as action is resumed.
Jim Ross
Pupstin covers... 1...2... KICKOUT by Single H!
Jim Ross
What in the hell is going on!
Pupstin can't believe Single H kicked out!
Pupstin is as frustrated as I've ever seen him, King!
Mr. McMahon
I am ordering that this match is now a no DQ match!
King
What?!
Jim Ross
This is chaos, King.
Mr. McMahon just changed this match to no disqualification.
I have no idea what to make of this.
Pupstin signals for a chair.
Jim Ross
For the love of God, no!
Don't tell me... don't tell me Pupstin and Mr. McMahon have joined forces.
Please don't do it, Pupstin. Not like this!
Jim Ross
Son of a bitch!
Pupstin with those vicious chair shots on a helpless Single H.
Stone Cold is beating the hell out of The Game!
This is not right... not like this, Pupstin. Not like this!
Jim Ross
What the hell is this... what the hell is this?!
Pupstin covers for the 1...2...3....
Pupstin wins 90.62 - 84.20.
Winner via Pinfall and the NEW 2022 League Champion:
Martha & Bros Coffee Co.
King
It's a New League Champion, that's what this is.
Jim Ross
I cannot believe my eyes, King.
Why? Why like this, Pupstin?
*Crowd Boos*
Jim Ross
They're shaking hands! My God!
Pupstin has sold his soul to Satan himself!
Jim Ross
Stone Cold has won his 4th League Championship, but at what cost?
I hate to say this... but Steve Pupstin is now the Greatest of All Time...
But damnit, King.
I can't help but feel like this is a tainted outcome.
The most important match of all time has an ugly finish.
Pupstin has won, but I don't think we truly know who the better man is.
Jim Ross
And now Pupstin drinking a damn beer with Vince McMahon
over a beaten Single H.
That's your son in law, Vince!
Why? Damnit, why?
*Crowd Boos*
Jim Ross
Stone Cold has won a record breaking 4th title,
but we'll never know what would've happened had Mr. McMahon not postponed the match.
And as Pupstin celebrates his League Championship,
you can hear this San Francisco crowd letting him know how they feel.
Pupstin has turned his back on all these fans!
He sold his soul to be the Greatest of All Time.
If you wanted it that badly, Pupstin, you can have it.
But you have lost my respect, you son of a bitch!
Jim Ross
Mr. McMahon has hand selected his Champion,
screwing over his son in law in the process.
I am sick, King.
King
I am shocked, JR. I'm at a loss for words.
Stone Cold and Mr. McMahon aligned on the same side.
Jim Ross
You can call him the GOAT, but in my eyes, Pupstin has tarnished his legacy.
For the love of God, why?
I cannot believe what I am seeing.
King
This match was to determine the answer to the final question,
who is the GOAT?
But I think we're just left with more questions, JR.
Jim Ross
Why Steve? Why this way?
Jim Ross
And you can't help but feel for Single H.
A tough way to lose, Single H never got the final opportunity to prove just how good he could be.
An incredible season comes to a bitter end.
As Single H finally coming back to his senses...
Jim Ross
Stone Cold has finally surpassed Single H in League Championships.
But I hate to see this. Not like this.
Jim Ross
A standing ovation for Single H, as he makes his way to the back.
This crowd showing their appreciation for The Game.
He finally made it back on top, but will fall just short of becoming League Champion.
*Crowd Boos*
Jim Ross
And these two sons of bitches..
They planned this from the very beginning haven't they?
Stone Cold Steve Pupstin, the 4x League Champion..
The arena lights go dark,
as the crowd is lit up with fireflies.
Jim Ross
Wait a minute.. what now?
Minh Wyatt
He's got the whole world... in his hands.
He's got the whole world... in his hands.
He's got the whole wide world in his.... hands.
*Crowd Cheers*
The White Rabbit
Oh little one... what have you done?
Stone Cold Steve Pupstin.
There has been an incursion... and YOU are responsible.
Wh-what have you done?
You have no idea what you are dealing with, do you?
Oh... but you will.
*Crowd Cheers*
Crowd
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
HOLY SHIT!
The masked man reveals himself as Minh Wyatt!

THE END OF TIME
He Who Remains
Do you see now?
In every timeline, at some point, you will become the villain.
We can view another timeline, if you like.
But the journey you took to get here...
It's been quite impressive to watch... truly.
But I know why you're here.
You're here because you think you can right your wrongs.
But let me tell you something... this isn't going to go the way you think it is.
At the Citadel at the End of Time,
we find He Who Remains speaking to another character off screen,
He Who Remains
Take a look out there.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
He Who Remains
Do you feel that?
You can... sense it, can't you?
That's the feeling of something deep down in your gut...
the feeling that something is very wrong.
I'll tell you what's wrong.
It's the feeling that you didn't quite earn it.
It's the timelines branching off.
It's alternate realities coming to life.
Infinite possibilities.
It is... fascinating.
???
I don't feel a damn thing.
We hear a familiar voice, but are unable to place who it is.
He Who Remains
Oh, you just wait, it'll kick in.
All those theories you've been wondering about...
Quantum fluctuations, string theory.
Eternal inflation.
It's all true.
I'm here to tell you that time isn't what you think it is.
And now, you have a decision to make.
???
You're bluffing.
He Who Remains
I wish I was.
He Who Remains
But I get it. I'm not to be trusted.
I understand how you feel.
But that's the gambit!
Am I, the all powerful "He Who Remains", telling the truth?
Or is it all just another elaborate lie?
YOU are going to be the one who has to decide.
And there's only one way to find out!
He Who Remains
Your story doesn't have to end just because you've run out of pages.
For the right price, you can have it all back.
The storylines, the glitz, the glamor.
It can all be yours.
Hell, you made it this far, why not roll the dice?
Am I right?
He Who Remains
The way I see it, you have 2 options!
Option #1.
You accept the responsibility.
You take over my duties as He Who Remains.
And the Sacred Timeline is restored.
All is well, and multiversal balance is upheld.
The book closes and the story ends.
And whatever happened last season... stays that way.
The End. Finito.
He Who Remains
We part ways, and you never have to visit this website ever again.
But... if I know you the way that I think that I do...
then I know, you aren't happy with the way last season ended. Are you?
It was a bit... anti-climatic... no?
All season long, the stage was set for a hero's journey.
A Fantasy Manager destined to fulfill his prophecy,
destined to bring things full circle.
And we came this close to getting the ending we all wanted.
But this ain't no fairytale, and there are no such things as storybook endings.
In the end, things fell flat.
The whole time, we were led to believe that it was the butler who did it.
But in the end, it was the chambermaid after all.
Disappointing, isn't it?
But that's what you get when you rely on a nobody whose never done anything.
He Who Remains
But forget about the butler, he' doesn't matter.
But you do.
Do you want to know who killed the world?
I did.
I did what I had to do.
I pruned those other universes because these other worlds are very dangerous.
I prevented cosmic war. I conquered the conqueror!
You have to understand, everything I did, I had good reasoning for.
I killed the world because it had to be done.
He Who Remains
But that brings us, to Option #2.
We saw how Earth-616 ended.
And we just saw how Earth-316 ended.
You sold your soul to the devil.
And we both know what you did in your world to get you here...
But we can change all of that, can't we?
You can still be the hero of this journey.
And all you have to do... is kill me.
You kill me, and.... chaos ensues.
Multiversal war. Cosmic anarchy!
The story continues... and the world of possibilities open up like never before.
Anything can happen. A completely clean slate!
You can do whatever you want...
You can restart every single storyline all over.
Or maybe you can even go back in time and fix a previous one.
Maybe go back to the single point in time where it all went wrong...
He Who Remains
FantasyMania XII.
He Who Remains
To the very moment in time when Rockson Reigns dropped Jeff Wilson Jr.
You can block that transaction from ever taking place...
He Who Remains
And then BOOM!
A whole new world.
A brand new outcome..
An alternate reality.
He Who Remains
Seana wins.
The Deportation never takes place...
He Who Remains
And all is right in the world...
He Who Remains
That is until... my variants come into play.
You see, if you go with Option 2, it can go a number of ways.
But I promise you, almost all of them end very badly for you.
You can win not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4... you can win 5 or more Championships.
But by doing so, you're opening up a whole new can of worms.
He Who Remains
Without me.... without someone to protect the Sacred Timeline...
you have no idea what's behind that door.
You may hate the dictator, but something far worse is coming if you depose of him.
Anything and everything will be coming after you, if you do this.
He Who Remains
New characters...
Michael Cole
Making his WCC Debut... the American Nightmare...
Vincent Rhodes!
New villains...
Corey Graves
The Devil Himself... CFL.
Chris Fuckin' Law!
Familiar foes...
He Who Remains
And of course.... new champions.
He Who Remains
You have no idea what you're in for, if you open that door.
My advice, would be to leave that whole wrasslin' business behind you.
You've done all you can in that world.
Go with Option 1.
Save yourself the trouble.
You and your other variants will thank you for it.
Because if you kill me... you won't just have one devil.
You'll have an infinite amount.
And trust me, I'm not the only one you have to worry about.
Something far worse is lurking in the shadows.
But I'll leave it up to you.
You have the right to decide.
Do you want to be selfish and continue on,
in hopes of winning another League Championship?
Or do you want to do what's right for the league, and take on my legacy?
Become "He Who Remains"
He Who Remains
You either die a hero...
or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
He Who Remains
The choice is yours.
But you better hurry...
The timeline's already branching.
The White Rabbit
Do it.
The White Rabbit
What are you waiting for? Do it!
Don't you want to be respected? Do it!
The White Rabbit
He deserves to be punished. Do it now.
He deserves to suffer. DO IT!
The door... is closing.
???
Okay, right.
Help me understand this, because there's just this one thing
that I can't quite wrap my head around.
You, this supposedly, all powerful being.
With the ability to see all alternate timelines and realities,
having lived for millions and millions of years...
And what?
You're just going to give up your power? Why?
He Who Remains
Buddy, I've been doing this a long time... and believe me, I've seen it all.
I can't do this forever.
One day, someone was meant to take my place.
And that person is you.
But whether or not you choose to accept that role,
it's not up to me.
???
But if you've seen all of time, then you already know what I'm going to do.
He Who Remains
You would think so, wouldn't you?
But I actually don't know what happens next.
I fibbed earlier, when I said I know everything.
I knew everything up until a certain point in time.
And that time was about.... 7, 8? 9? 10 seconds ago.
But now, I have no idea.
No idea how the rest of this is going to go.
I'm being candid. Everything I know to be true has happened.
But now, I am completely in the dark.
I have no idea what you're going to decide.
My fate is in your hands.
???
Yeah.... or, this is all just one big sham.
You're a fear monger.
You use deceptive methods and push the idea of the unknown.
All of this, the TVA, alternate realities, branching timelines,
I'm sorry, but I just don't buy it.
I kill you and what?
Suddenly it's hell on earth, the sky is falling and universes are collapsing in on one another?
Is that what you want me to believe?
What's the worst that can happen?
Our hands turn into hot dog fingers?
Or maybe traffic lights get reversed,
red means go and green means stop?
Is that seriously what you want me to be afraid of?
He Who Remains
Oh... I can think of a lot worse than that.
But as you will.
If you don't believe me, I won't try to convince you any further.
So do what you will.
Just know, that you will have to live with your decision.
It's time to decide.... Mr. Stark.
Kendrick Stark
Hmmm... yeah.
I have to admit, this was elaborately put together.
It's quite well done.
This whole shin dig, all the shiny bright lights,
visual aides to hone in the idea of multiple universes...
You almost had me convinced.
Kendrick Stark
But I call bullshit.
You're not The Great and Powerful.
You're just a man behind the curtain, with a well rehearsed speech.
And now it's time for curtain call.
He Who Remains
I'm sorry you feel that way...
So I take it... you've made up your mind?
MarthaMan
I have.
He Who Remains
Heh. Right.
Right... Good.
So then... I guess this is it?
MarthaMan
I guess it is.
He Who Remains
Disappointing.
But it is what it is...
I'll see you soon.... MarthaMan
MarthaMan
No... you won't.
Kendrick Stark will return in West Coast Cousins Forever
