They offer to fully fund DPW from now on, but in exchange you have to watch a 2 hr long survivor series elimination match with the natural born thrillers vs Tommy dreamer, Justin credible, the highlanders, magnus, Jay Bradley, nasty boys, kronik, gunner, AL snow, Val venis, the Harris brothers, the FRANCHISE and Matt striker. Commentary is honky tonk man, Mark Madden, post book mankind, Jesse ventura, and another Matt striker. Johnny Damon announces everyone to the ring and ministry Undertaker has to cut a promo on both teams before the match. No plus 10 or commentary muting allowed, would you take the deal?
