Chapter 124: The Final Showdown [End of Grindhouse Star Volume]

It was already a week away before Max Fury would leave Grindhouse Wrestling for Slamdown.

The deal is done!

Arnold spent the remaining days doing what he liked best with his friends and feeding the Grindhouse Wrestling fans with incredible performances in the ring.

Within this only remaining month, Arnold made sure to participate in every show, defending his two Championship Titles with an open challenge.

Surprisingly, the last Open Challenge he did turn out to be against his friend, Mark.

Bobby Crimson.

The fans were stunned, but Arnold wasn't. After all, he urged Mark to come out in the first place.

It was all his plan, but that didn't mean he would lay on the mat and let Mark pin him to the count of three.

"You have to fight and defeat me if you can."

This was what he told Bobby Crimson before they fought...

However, it was unfortunate that Mark couldn't defeat Max Fury no matter how he tried. Although he had made huge advancements in his fighting skills and attributes, he couldn't just match up to defeat Max freaking Fury.

Max Fury would just have to match out of Grindhouse Wrestling, undefeated!

That's another great record made!

He made history!

Before his last show in Grindhouse Wrestling, he was informed that he would have to drop the titles. That was the culture after all, and he knew it.

At least, he had conquered both the High-level and Low-level rosters to emerge as their champion. No one had been able to do that since the history of Grindhouse Wrestling, but he did.

Another record...

Another history...

It wasn't a problem for him to drop the championships as it was normal, and he would do just that, wholeheartedly.

The Grindhouse Wrestling Management organized a special event on the last show he would be on the roster. That day, in the main event, the wrestlers in the locker room would be summoned to pay their respects to him before he left.

That was the culture, especially for someone as impactful as Max Fury. It was undeniable, and everyone knew it.

Even Justin Reed...

"Max Fury is leaving Grindhouse Wrestling!"

"The young legendary fighter Max Fury would be leaving Grindhouse Wrestling for Slamdown in a week."

"Shocking: first Grindhouse wrestler to be promoted to the top shows under a year of his debut. So impressive!"

"Max Fury rejects Rampage's huge offer for Slamdown!" Experience more on m|vl-em,py-r

There were a lot of topics online as well, as the internet was buzzing as expected.

Arnold acknowledged the fact that many praised his achievement for being the first wrestler to enter the top shows a year after his debut.

Normally, Grindhouse wrestlers spend a year or more to even become High-level wrestlers. But, Max Fury didn't only achieve all these under one year, he was getting promoted as well with a huge deal...

Although the Slamdown offer was a little less than that of Rampage, it was still considered huge. No one in the Grindhouse Wrestling roster could ever receive such kind of offer at this time.

In fact, some wrestlers actually got transferred for free, officially known as a Direct Management Promotion.

However, Max Fury's case was different...

His transfer wasn't just a promotion...

Well...

It's just something else.

Both shows really wanted him.

...

"It's really unfortunate... It's really unfortunate, Max... I can't imagine that you are truly leaving us," Lila was mostly affected by Arnold's incoming departure.

"That's life for you, I never thought it could happen this early. But here I am, set to leave," Arnold smiled and said.

"And we are going to miss you so much. The training, the fun, the friendship. All might just have been dying gradually... It's so disheartening," Mark cut in.

"No, we would always meet. Trust me. I'd always come to visit Capside Centre with a surprise."

Mark and Lila stared at him and nodded with a hopeful smile...

"But you all have to promise me that you wouldn't back down from regular training and practicing. With that, you can achieve your dreams earlier than you expect," Arnold advised.

"We will... Always."

Mark and Lila promised to remain hardworking and determined no matter what happened, and Arnold felt that aura...

He believed in them.

Perhaps one day, soon, they would also be joining the top shows... He believed that.

On the main event of the last show, all wrestlers in the show gathered to pay respect to Max Fury. The fans were present as well, praising him for the young wonder fighter that he is.

While he dropped the Grindhouse Alpha and Omega Championship Titles, he made a speech to everyone.

"My exit comes with so many emotions. Sadness and happiness, regrets and belief, joy and sorrow as I leave Grindhouse Wrestling today. I know it's normal, but my heart breaks having to feel that I will be leaving this great place."

"It's been such a memorable stay here, and I must say that I enjoyed every single event in this show! Grindhouse Wrestling is the greatest second-tier professional wrestling show in the world, own it!"

The fans cheered after that statement, the praises continuing.

"Even after my exit, I will always remember your cheers, your support, your love, and the battles we fought together. The Grindhouse Wrestling universe will forever be in my heart."

"Thank you, Grindhouse Wrestling. Thank you, wonderful fans of Max Fury. And thank you, the entire Grindhouse Wrestling roster."

"Thank you, my wonderful friends, Bobby Crimson and Lila Ross. We always will be together!"

After this speech, the entire arena rose with claps and sounds of praise as Max Fury appreciated everyone.

"You are awesome!"

Of course, he was truly awesome.

"You deserve it!"

Sure, he deserved to be in the top shows.

"We will miss you!"

It was certain.

Arnold ended up exchanging handshakes with all the wrestlers who came out to pay respect to him. Including the Jerry Blaze he respected.

With a smile, he whispered to Jerry Blaze's ears while handshaking him. Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Go for the Alpha Championship. It's yours."

Jerry only smiled and nodded, and then Arnold gave him a strong masculine hug before moving away.

After a friendship hug and a long discussion with his friends, as they left the arena, they all were emotional.

But it was what it was supposed to be...

It was normal...

Max Fury was leaving for the top shows.

The main journey has just begun!
