Delilah: It?s GOOD TO BE BACK IN BRA!

[The fans pop!]

Delilah: I?ve spent the last couple of weeks over in Japan in serious
negotiations that will help this company. I must say that it was a wonderful
trip and I feel rejuvenated! I?m ready to see BRA kick some serious ass!

[The crowd again pops!]

Delilah: Let?s get a few things squared away before we get into the serious
news. Candi Bratton..

[Candi?s fans start a ?Candi!? chant.]

Delilah: Against my better judgment, I?m going to allow you to compete in the
Barbed Wire match at Red Blood Cell. Understand this, you will sign a waiver so
that we are not held responsible for any injuries you might receive in such a
match. I don?t think this is the wisest move, however, it?s your wish and
I?m going to allow it to happen.

[The fans are happy with that announcement.]

Delilah: However.. until further notice, you are hereby suspended as the head
referee of this company. You are reinstated as a wrestler. Following your match
with Marissa Monet, we will sit down and determine your status within this
company. Your actions, in my opinion, have not been what I would consider
appropriate for a head referee in this company. I am appointing Ina Hymich as
the new BRA head referee effective tonight!

[Mixed reactions at the words directed towards Candi Bratton.]

Delilah: Also, tonight in this very ring.. as our main event. Veronica Millions
has approached me about defending her title tonight. She said she was given an
opportunity and she wants to return the favor. I have looked over the roster
and decided who that person will be. So, tonight in the main event, Veronica
Millions will defend the EC Title against the challenge of? Shea London!!

[The fans pop at that announcement. Both are popular wrestlers in BRA and
they?d love to see that match.]

Delilah: Also, to complete the 8 person match known at ?The Fallen Angel Full
Contact? match for the vacant Fallen Angel Title.. we are going to throw
Chrissy Daniel and Kari Stevens. That completes the roster for that particular
match. One of those eight individuals will become the Fallen Angel champion.
Now.. onto the big news..

[The crowd becomes quiet. They?ve heard rumor and speculation.. but now
it?s coming directly from the source.]

Delilah: For those who are familiar, we?ve been in secret negotiations with
the REIGN Corporation out of Japan. They have shown an interest in our product,
as well as that of Japan?s BLAZE promotion.

[Fans pop, familiar with that promotion.]

Delilah: We have signed an agreement, along with BLAZE, to become part of the
REIGN Corporation. Basically, the REIGN Corporation has purchased a ?part?
of each promotion. Now, the kicker for this is that REIGN has created a
championship.. they are calling it the Grand Phoenix Crown Women’s
Championship. Battling Ring Angels has been granted the initial opportunity to
showcase the battle to determine this new championship. The Battling Ring
Angels? World Champion will collide with BLAZE?s Triple Crown Women?s
Universal Champion. The winner will walk away with all the belts and be
designated as the Grand Phoenix Crown Women?s Championship!

[Murmurs among the crowd..]

Delilah: This title will be decided in December at BRA?s own.. ENDGAME!

[The crowd pops!]

Delilah: It has been decided that only the top BRA Champion and the top BLAZE
Champion can pursue the Grand Phoenix Crown Women?s Championship. If Cassie
Hopkins, or whoever our contender is fails to win that championship they will
continue to be our top champion. If Cassie should win the Grand Phoenix, then
we will hold a tournament to crown a new champion. So, enough with the
announcements.. let?s get this show on the road!

[ We suddenly go to the opening PowerTrip sequence featuring Salt n Pepa's
"It's a She Thing" as images from Battling Ring Angels flashes across the
screen...]

# It ain’t a man’s world (You go, girl!) #
# No more sugar and spice (And everything nice) #
# It ain’t a man’s world (You go, girl) #

[The final moments sees Abby Hoffman with the Middleweight Title in her hand,
inside the steel cage. Next, the Battling Ring Angels "PowerTrip" logo appears
before fading into the arena.

"It's a She Thing" continues to play, drowned out a bit by the awesome crowd
noise. The sold-out audience is screaming and hollering, as a beautiful
pyrotechnic display assaults their senses. As the camera pans the crowd, a few
of the more interesting signs can be made out, showing support for some of the
BRA stars. These include: "Air Waves will fly over Bad Seed", "Sierra Who?",
"Give Shea A Rematch!", and ?Marissa Fears Candi". Suddenly, the camera lands
on the announce team of Kenny Harbour and Evonne Carmikel. Kenny wears a
?Cassie Hopkins? T-shirt, jeans, and tennis shoes. Evonne, as usual, wears
an expensive, black, Armani suit, her hair in a ponytail.]

Kenny: Welcome to this edition of PowerTrip! I?m Kenny Harbour and my co-host
this evening, as usual, is Evonne Carmikal.

Evonne: Like I need an introduction from you, dork-boy. I?m the true host of
this program and don?t you forget it. If I wasn?t here, the ratings would
go down a full two points.

Kenny: Uh.. right. We have a great card for you this evening, including an
Eastern Continental Title defense as Veronica Millions will defend against the
former Middleweight Champion Shea London.

Evonne: She just lost a title two weeks ago.. and she?s already getting
another title shot?

Kenny: Shea London has earned herself this title shot.

Evonne: She?s a loser.

Kenny: Also on tap tonight, the third in a series of matches between Wendy
Ryker and DARIA Wakizawa.. They?ve gone twice to the time limit draw. This
time there are no time limit and no rules. There must be a decisive winner.

Evonne: I?ll tell you what, Wakiwaka..

Kenny: Wakizawa..

Evonne: Whatever.. she?s been lucky these past couple of matches. Tonight,
she?ll be put in her place.

Kenny: Plus, we?ll be hyping the upcoming special, ?Red Blood Cell? that
will come to you in two weeks right here on Lifetime! But what about the
announcement made at the top of this program by BRA Owner Delilah Strain! BRA
and BLAZE are now working together..

Evonne: I don?t know if it?s together.. sounds like more of a friendly
competition. Obviously, it would be a feather in either companies? cap to be
have the Grand Pheonix Crown Women?s Champion on their payroll.

Kenny: I?m sure that?s true, but it seems as though this agreement between
both companies will put a lot of pressure on other women?s companies to put
up or shut up.

Evonne: You mean there are other women?s companies?

Kenny: Well.. I?m not sure..

Evonne: In other words, you?re just talking out your ass again..?

Kenny: Um.. yeah. Let?s go down to rinside for our opening contest!

[Fiona Miranda stands in the center of the ring as the opening squall of guitar
which begins Rage Against the Machine's "Snakecharmer" rips through the arena.
The fans immediately leap to their feet as the cheers begin to thunder through
the stands. There is a blast of white sparkling pyro from each side of the
curtain as it parts, and two women step out onto the platform.

Fiona: Weighing in at 126 lbs...

[Both women hit a pose for the crowd, soaking up the applause, before jogging
down to the ring, slapping hands with fans on the way.]

Fiona: Accompanied to the ring by Jeanmarie Ferguson…

[Jeanmarie and Rachel both slide under the bottom rope, and each leaps up onto
the second turnbuckle in a corner, playing to the fans.]

Fiona: One half of Bad Seed…. RACHEL…. SABBAAAAAAAAAATOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

[More cheers from the crowd as Rachel Sabbato backflips off the top rope into
the ring, and Jeanmarie Ferguson hops down from the corner.]

Fiona: And now, her opponent, accompanied to the ring by “The Blonde Bomber”
Jennifer Rowe and weighing 122 pounds….

["Light of Day" by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts kicks in over the PA system,
and "Lady Lightning" Lori Wilson steps out from the back, looking straight
ahead to the ring. She is dressed in her wrestling attire, a black leotard with
narrow white lightning bolts running down the front and back, black kneepads
with a white "L" on each one and black wrestling boots. She also wears on her
head a black bandana with narrow lightning bolts and the words "Lady Lightning"
written on it in white lettering. Jennifer is by her side, still dressed in her
earlier attire.]

Fiona: She is one half of the Air Waves…”LADY LIGHTNING”… LORI…
WIIIILLLLSOOOONNNN!!!!

[Lori heads down the aisle, slapping hands with fans but her eyes mostly
focused on the ring ahead, Jennifer behind her and slapping hands with fans as
well. When she arrives at the ring, she heads up the ring stairs, steps between
the ropes, then whips off her bandana and throws it into the crowd.]

Fiona: And now, their opponent, accompanied to the ring by Alexandria Parker,
as well as her bodyguard, Brawn and weighing 120 pounds…

[The fans begin to boo as "I Know What Boys Like" by Vitamin C blares over the
speakers, announcing the arrival of "Blonde Bombshell" Tiffany Lane. Pyro pots
explode and pink, fire works soar through the air as The Angeltron flashes to
life, showing various images of the lovely Ms. Lane. Suddenly, Tiffany's
personal bodyguard, Brawn, steps from behind the curtains. The huge, muscular
man is clad only in a pair of blue jeans and black boots, showing off his
chiseled physique.]

Fiona: One-half of the BRA tag team champions, Business and Pleasure…she is
“THE BLOND BOMBSHELL”…. TIFFANY… LAAAAAANNNNNNE!!!!!!

[With a nod, Brawn steps aside as Tiffany exits the curtains. Tiffany wears a
white, floor-length robe, tied at the waist with a matching sash. Her
luxurious, blonde hair graces the small of her back, in a cascade of silky
curls. With a smirk upon her beautiful visage, she stands atop the entrance
ramp, performing a sensual bump and grind, teasing the fans by tugging on the
sash. Finally, after driving the males crazy with anticipation, Tiffany whips
off the flimsy garment, revealing her wrestling attire, a loud T&A POP
resounding throughout the arena. Tiffany wears a pink, satin bra and matching,
pink bikini bottoms, trimmed in white fur. The ensemble showcases her sleek,
curvy figure. She completes the look with pink, vinyl boots, a pink, lace
garter stationed strategically on her shapely thigh. Some of the crowd begins
to catcall and whistle as the seductress continues to shimmy and shake.
Alexandria Parker accompanies the duo. Brawn and Tiffany finally saunter down
the aisle before entering the ring. She makes a show of seductively removing
her garter and tossing it into the crowd with a devilish grin, causing a stir
as some of the males, seating in the front row, fight to obtain the garment.
With a satisfied smile and toss of her blonde mane, Tiffany places her hands on
her hips, preparing for the start of the match. Brawn takes his place at
ringside, giving her a thumbs-up.]

[But as the bell rings, Sabbato is quick to strike, flooring Lane with a
spinwheel kick. Lori then moves in, spinning Sabbato around and firing off a
chop. The two women exchange chops, before Lori manages to block a shot, spin
Sabbato around again and grab her from behind, dropping her to the mat with a
backdrop suplex.]

Kenny: And the action is already fast and furious here as Lori and Rachel are
going at it!

Evonne: Going at it? It’s more like that vicious Lori is Pearl Harboring poor
Tiffany and Rachel! Look at that cheat!

Kenny: Oh, please.

[But as Lori rises from the mat, Tiffany is up as well, leaping in the air and
taking Wilson to the mat with a flying headscissors. She then keeps her legs
locked around Lori, working the scissors as Lori kicks her feet into the mat.]

Kenny: And the tide turns here, Lane in control.

Evonne: As if you thought there would be any other option.

Kenny: Actually, I did.

[Rachel rolls to her feet, dropping an elbow on Lane and thus breaking the
hold. Sabbato drags Lane to her feet, sending her into one corner and firing
off a pair of quick kicks, before whipping Lane into the opposite corner. She
then follows in, doing a handspring to the corner and connecting with an elbow,
causing Lane to slump into the corner.]

Kenny: Lightning fast work by all of the women involved here. It’s a shame that
the Featherweight division is being sidelined, because these three are all
perfect examples of what the smaller women in this promotion can do.

[But Sabbato is then nailed with a standing dropkick from Lori. Wilson drags
Rachel off the mat, and a quick snap suplex takes her down. She bounces off the
ropes, spinning as she does and delivering a corkscrew elbowdrop. A cover then
follows...]

Kenny: Lori with the cover here.

Evonne: Yeah, after she cheated.

Kenny: Oh, stop. Lori doesn’t cheat.

Evonne: And I guess she and Jennifer weren’t trying to steal B&P’s dressing
room, a few weeks ago, either, huh?

Kenny: Are you always this delusional?

ONE…

[But Tiffany Lane breaks up the pinfall. Lane brings Lori to her feet, using a
kick to the midsection to double her over. She grabs Lori by the hair and mares
her down to the mat, then delivers a pair of quick stomps. As she brings Lori
to her feet, Wilson fires back a blow to the midsection, doubling Lane over.
Wilson pulls herself to her feet, blocking a shot attempt from Tiffany, before
sending her into the ropes and bouncing off the opposite side. A Thesz press
then takes Lane down to the mat.]

Evonne: Come on, Tiffany! Kick this cheater’s butt!

Kenny: The only butt getting kicked around here appears to be Tiffany’s.

Evonne: Yeah, you would be focused on Tiffany’s butt, pervert!

Kenny: …..

[But as Lori connects with the press, Sabbato is back to her feet and quickly
kicks Lori off before a count can take place. Lori and Rachel face each other,
with Lori going for a clothesline, which Sabbato ducks. As Lori turns, Rachel
catches her with a quick thrust kick to the chin, knocking Wilson to the mat.
Sabbato dives for the cover...]

Kenny: There’s been bad blood between the Air Waves and Bad Seed for weeks now.
A victory for Rachel here would certainly give her team bragging rights.

ONE…

[And Lane is again there to break the pinfall. Lane and Sabbato now exchange
blows, and a thumb to the eye from Tiffany stuns Sabbato. Lane spins Rachel
around, taking her down to the mat with a Russian legsweep.]

Evonne: No! Don’t fight each other, ladies! Fight Lori!

[The Blonde Bombshell then goes to the top rope, coming off to connect with a
flying legdrop. She then follows with a pinfall attempt...]

ONE…

TW…

Kenny: Speak of the devil.

[And this time, Wilson breaks the pinfall. Lane and Wilson now square off, with
the two locking up and looking for leverage. Lane manages to get a go-behind on
Lori, then take her over with a German suplex, bridging on the mat...]

Evonne: German suplex! This is one of Tiffany’s top moves! Stick a fork in
Lori. She’s done.

ONE…

TW…

Kenny: Wishful thinking there, Evonne?

[But it's a kickout by Wilson. Lane drags Lori off the mat, trying to whip
Wilson into the ropes, but Lori reverses it. As Lane comes off the ropes, a leg
lariat from Lori connects and send the B&P member crashing to the canvas.]

Evonne: Damn.

Kenny: Lori Wilson back in control here and these fans are loving it!

Crowd: Lori! Lori! Lori! Lori!

[As Wilson rises to her feet, she finds herself face to face with Rachel
Sabbato. The two exchange another series of chops, with Rachel able to back
Lori into the ropes. An Irish whip follows and Sabbato bounces off the opposite
strands, coming off to nail Lori with a flying forearm.]

Evonne: Heh. Guess the fans cheerleading didn’t help their girl any. She’s
about to be demolished by Bad Seed!

[Sabbato comes off the ropes, hitting a sliding legdrop, then going for the
cover...]

ONE…

TWO…

[And another kickout by Wilson.]

Kenny: Lori Wilson has to be one of the most resilient women in BRA! Neither
Tiffany or Rachel can put her away!

[Sabbato brings Wilson up off the mat, only to be nailed from behind by Lane.
Lane leaps up onto Rachel's shoulders, using a huracanrana to take her down to
the mat. She then goes up to the top rope once more, coming off with a picture
perfect moonsault and hooking the leg for good measure...]

Kenny: Tiffany came out of nowhere with that one!

ONE…

TWO…

[But Sabbato kicks out. Tiffany pulls Rachel off the mat and shoves her into
the corner. She delivers several kicks to the midsection, but up from behind
comes Lori Wilson. Lane is surprised as she is pulled around by Lori, and a
kneelift is followed by Wilson taking Tiffany down to the mat with a fisherman
suplex.]

Kenny: Beautiful move by Lori! This could be over!

ONE…

TWO…

[But Tiffany kicks out. Lori pulls Lane off the mat again, as this time,
Alexandria Parker hops onto the apron, drawing Lori's attention. Jennifer goes
over to get Parker down, but Brawn stands in front of her.]

Evonne: Ha! Jennifer doesn’t look so tough now!

[But Brawn does not see Jeanmarie Ferguson going up behind Parker, yanking her
down from the apron. The distraction, however, has allowed Lane to catch Lori
with a finger to the eye and a shove into the corner. Lane hops to the second
rope, taking Wilson out with a monkey flip to the canvas.]

Evonne: And that amateur, Lori, is caught sleeping. That’s why she can’t
possibly win this. She’s outclassed by wrestlers like Rachel and Tiffany.

Kenny: If that were the case, she wouldn’t be still in this match.

[Tiffany kips up to her feet and takes a moment to play up to the crowd,
shimmying and shaking.]

Kenny: And Tiffany wasting time here. I bet that’ll cost here.

Evonne: Never!

[However, with Lane so focused on showing off to the fans, she does not notice
that Rachel Sabbato is up on her feet. Sabbato goes to the apron and waits for
Lane to turn around. As she does, Sabbato slingshots herself over the ropes,
landing right on Lane's shoulders and taking her to the mat with a huracanrana
into a rollup. Tiffany struggles as Rachel keeps the shoulders down...]

Kenny: Told you! Rachel moving as quick as a cat and she has Tiffany trapped!

ONE…

TWO…

THR….

Evonne: Whew!

[Lane escapes! Sabbato, not wanting to lose the momentum, gets a knee to the
face as Lane rises, then grabs her in a facelock and plants her into the mat
with a snap DDT! Another cover follows...]

Evonne: Why are these two fighting each other, when Lori’s ass is sitting
there, primed for the kicking?

ONE…

TWO…

THR…

[And Lori Wilson breaks the pin! Sabbato rolls off Lane as Lori follows in
quickly, using a pair of forearm blows to soften up Sabbato, then sending her
into the ropes. She catches Sabbato coming off, then drops her over a knee with
a side backbreaker. From there, Wilson runs into the ropes, coming off with a
Lionsault and covering...]

Kenny: Great move by Lori!

Evonne: Bah. Rachel does it better!

ONE…

TWO…

THR…

[And Tiffany Lane breaks it up! Lane drags Wilson up by the hair, only for
Wilson to fire off a knee to her midsection. As Rachel rolls to the apron,
Wilson goes for a kick, which Lane blocks, but Lori quickly reacts by swinging
up her free leg, connecting with an enzuigiri!]

Kenny: Tiffany is down again! I think Lori senses the champ may not be able to
take much more of this!

[As Tiffany staggers back to her feet, Wilson comes up from behind for her to
strike. Lane turns, only to get caught with the Lightning Stirke superkick!]

Kenny: And this one is done! All Lori has to do is make the cover!

Evonne: No! Alex! Brawn! Do something!

[But before Lori can make the cover, Brawn now climbs onto the apron, catching
Lori's attention. Parker now tries to sneak into the ring, only to be cut off
by Jennifer Rowe. Parker and Rowe now begin to trade blows outside the ring as
Lane slowly sits up. Seeing Wilson distracted, she gets to her feet and sneaks
up behind Lori, who is focused on Brawn as the referee tries to get him down
from the apron.]

Kenny: Watch out, Lori!

Evonne: Too late! That little Air Wave is about to feel the Bombshell Bomb!

[Wilson turns to face Lane, who stuns her with a European uppercut! With Wilson
staggering, a quick stunner drops Wilson to the mat. Lane then goes over to the
corner, signaling to the crowd she's ready to finish off Lori.]

Evonne: What did I say? Tiffany’s got this in the bag.

[Outside the ring, Rowe and Parker are still fighting it out, and now Jeanmarie
Ferguson has joined in the fray, making it a three-way brawl. Lane reaches the
top rope, flying from her perch and connecting with the Bombshell Bomb! Brawn
turns to brag to the crowd as Lane then rolls on top of Wilson for a cover...]

Evonne: Count it, ref!

ONE…

TWO…

[But Lane has not noticed that Rachel Sabbato, who had been watching on the
apron, has now climbed to the top rope herself, and she flies off with her frog
splash, Death From Above! This breaks up Lane's pinfall attempt, and as Tiffany
rolls on the mat, Rachel rolls on top of her, hooking the leg for good
measure...]

Kenny: Wait a minute! Rachel connects with a beautiful move on Lane!

ONE…

TWO…

[Brawn suddenly turns around, noticing that Lane is being pinned, but as he
ducks between the ropes...]

THREE!

Kenny: I don’t believe this! Rachel Sabbato just pinned one of the world tag
team champions! This has to be considered quite the upset!

[Sabbato rolls off Lane and outside the ring as the bell sounds, as Wilson
slowly sits up, and Brawn goes over to help Lane, a shocked look on his face.]

Evonne: Nina’s not going to be happy with this.

Fiona: The winner of the match… RACHEL SABBATO!

Kenny: This is quite a coup for Bad Seed! They now can claim a victory over the
champs!

[The fans pop loudly as Sabbato regroups with Ferguson outside the ring, a
high-five exchanged between the two, as they head back up the aisle. Wilson
slides out of the ring, where Jennifer meets her and the two talk, then head up
the aisle themselves. Brawn and Parker help Lane out of the ring and B&P and
Brawn then make their way to the back as well.]

Kenny: And the champs don’t look so happy now. Maybe they need to spend less
time playing the role of socialite and more time training, if this match is any
indication.

Evonne: Oh, please. This is just a temporary set back for B&P. They’ll bounce
back.

Kenny: Yeah, I’ve heard that one before. We?ll be right back!

[We break for a commercial. When we return, the camera comes into focus
backstage. A casually dressed and relaxed Helene Wikers is heading for the
lockers when BRA personnel promptly intercept her. Blocking her path is perky
interviewer Jenna Jamestown, eagerly motioning her crew to get in place. She
gives a fast and happy "Hi, Helene!" plus thumbs up that leave the wrestler
with a perplexed smile before turning to face the camera.]

Jenna: Hello, fans! With me right now is BRA wrestler, Helene Wikers. A
relative newcomer to BRA, she’s been seen in action against prominent figures
such as Nina Larue and Sierra Browne who, despite her acclaim, is also a
newcomer to BRA. What are you doing tonight, Helene?

Helene: … just fighting my third match.

Jenna: And which superstar will it be against?

Helene: Chrissy Daniel.

Jenna: … oh. Um, your thoughts?

Helene: I understand she’s something of a brawler so I’m not really worried.
It’s her funeral if she makes this an “I hit you, you hit me” kind of fight.

Jenna: And after this fight you’ll be going into Red Blood Cell, one of eight
combatants in “the Fallen Angel Full Contact Brawl.” What are your thoughts
there?

Helene: It’s been on my mind a lot lately, even now. There are a number of
talented ladies but it’s not as if I’m fighting all of them. There can be only
one winner so any alliance struck is gonna be shaky and temporary at best.

Jenna: And after RBC, what are you plans then? Do they coincide with the
challenge Sierra Browne has laid down for a few wrestlers including you and
your onetime partner Tara Smith?

Helene: I’ll think about that after RBC. Sierra’s probably just sour since she
earned that handicap match and defeat. But if the matchmakers or the other
wrestlers want it, then I’m in for the long haul. It’s a fight I can look
forward too.

Jenna: That’d be great!

Helene: Yeah.

Jenna: Uh-huh.

Helene, Jenna: …

Helene [gesturing off the camera]: … Uh, Jenna, if you don’t mind I’d better
change gears.

Jenna [on cue]: No problem, Helene, thanks for taking time to talk to us.
Let?s cut over to Shelley Marks who is with DARIA!

[Open camera shot we are backstage with Shelley Marks who is with DARIA
Wakizawa, who jump up and down softly, eager and full of energy]

Shelley: Fans later tonight Wakizawa/Ryker Part 3, No DQ, No Count-out and no
Time Limit! DARIA Wakizawa the world wants to know? Are you ready?

DARIA: [nodding affirmative as she stops jumping] HAI! Tonight everything will
be resolved! Tonight Wendy-san, D-chan gets in the ring for a third time with
you and this time there will be a winner. [points her thumb in her own chest] I
have every intention of being that winner!

Shelley: [motions off camera] DARIA we?ve been instructed to give this to you
by our director!

[Stagehand hands Jenna a FEDEX package]

Shelley: [looking at the package] Post mark Japan? Steel Wind Dojo?

DARIA: Nani?

[DARIA grabs the package and breaks the seal]

DARIA: [pulling out contents of the package one by one] eh? New Volume of
?Tenjo Tenge??[reaching in package and pulling out?] AH! The New Folder
5 CD! [one last reach in reveals a note] Eh? A message? [DARIA examines the
note] From Tanaka Yuriko sempai!

Shelley: Why do your mentors send care packages to you through our office
DARIA?

DARIA: [shrugging with a smile] I don?t know, probably because of my travel
schedule? hear listen to this? ?Dear D-chan, we all miss you at the Dojo.
Things are gearing up for the October Dream Tournament. Rekka-san hopes
you?ll at least come home for that if your schedule permits. Hope you like
the CD and are learning new skills in America. Kazuya ?sempai sends his best
also and wants you not to worry as he?s been taping ?One Piece? for you.
Sensei watched the tape of your matches from BRA? haven?t seen her smile
like that in years. Good luck! Yuriko?

Kenny: The ref laying down the count for the knockout! One! And there’s the
two… She’s going a bit slow I think.

Evonne: Neither woman has so much as moved yet! If this ends in another draw
because of a double count, KO or no KO, I’m going to scream. I swear.

Kenny: Looks like the referee feels the same way Evonne, because she’s not
exactly counting quickly. Three…

[Both DARIA and Wendy are still on the mat. DARTIA lays there, head nodding
from side to side. Wendy lies on the mat, eyes open though neither eye seems
focused]

Kenny: Four… The crowd has started counting along. They’re all on their feet
here wondering if we’re going to see another draw!

Crowd: FIVE!

[Wendy rolls over onto her stomach.]

Crowd: SIX!

[Crawling on her belly to the ropes Wendy tries to pull herself up, but loses
her grip and flops back down on the mat and onto her back. Daria has yet to
start moving again, apparently hitting a little bit harder than Wendy when they
crashed to the mat.]

Crowd: SEVEN!

Evonne: Come _ON_! GET UP! Don’t let this punk get _another_ undeserved draw!
Get up and beat her to a pulp, Ryker! Show me the Wendy Ryker I remember!

Crowd: EIGHT!

Evonne: Wendy sits up!

[DARIA rolls onto her belly]

Kenny: DARIA shows signs of life also!

Crowd: NINE!!!

[Both women slowly get to their feet, causing the crowd to pop big. DARIA's
face is still dripping blood, a result of her sweat mingling with dried blood
on her face]

Evonne: Both are up, [lamenting] it’s still a damn deadlock!

Kenny: Wendy laying in with a European Uppercut on DARIA! DARIA stands her
ground and fires back with a knife-edge chop!

Evonne : They’re trying to beat each other down!

[The exchange continues, Wendy with the uppercuts, DARIA with the chops,
neither woman giving an inch!]

Kenny: This all about respect! The woman who drops first just may lose the
match!

[Almost on cue DARIA falls backward as Wendy stands center ring pumping her
arm, the fans are rabid]

Kenny: Wendy with a pick-up, tossing DARIA to the ropes. DARIA on the
rebound?

[Wendy lifts DARIA up and hotshots her across the top rope strand]

Kenny: HOTSHOT! DARIA is down! Wendy with the cover!

Evonne: [almost hoarse] This has to be it?

1!

2!

3?

[The ref stands, thrusting 2 fingers in the air]

Kenny: Again only a nearfall!

Evonne: What the hell does Wendy Ryker have to do to end this match? CAN
SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME!

[The camera zooms in, Wendy is gritting her teeth, a look of furious,
frustrated anger on her face.]

Kenny: Wendy tosses DARIA into the corner and lifts her up the turnbuckles?

Evonne: Another Superplex WILL END THIS!

[Wendy starts to climb up the ropes but DARIA kicks her in the head several
times till Wendy falls off]

Kenny: Both women must be close to empty on the gas tank!

[Wendy staggers to her feet and DARIA comes off the top]

Kenny: Missile Dropkick!

Evonne: NO! She hit Wendy in the shoulder!

Kenny: And that’s the same shoulder she hurt on the ringpost earlier in the
match!

[Wendy grabs her arm in pain on the mat as DARIA springs to her feet]

Kenny: Wendy still on the mat in pain and DARIA now sensing the ends might be
near!

[DARIA sits Wendy up and isolates the battered arm and then wraps Wendy's free
arm across her throat. DARIA then pulls back on both arms]

Kenny: D-Clutch! DARIA has the D-Clutch on Wendy in the middle of the ring!

Evonne: [angrily] It can’t end this way! It just can’t!

[Wendy gasps for air as DARIA pulls back the arms even tighter. Then for more
leverage DARIA back mounts Wendy and rolls both of them on their sides]

Kenny: This is a variation of the crossface chickenwing! DARIA is pulling back
on Wendy’s arms, cutting of the air supply!

[Wendy is struggling furiously in the D-Clutch, but the lack of leverage
combined with the hurt shoulder leaves her unable to power out, and the ropes
are nowhere nearby. The referee asks her if she submits, but only gets a look
which would have laid him six feet underground if looks could kill as a
response. Slowly, but surely Wendy starts to fade, however, the lack of oxygen
to her brain taking its inevitable toll.]

Evonne: Someone hit the ring with a chair or something! And then hit DARIA with
it!

Kenny: Wendy is fading, and here’s the referee to check on her again.

[The ref checks on Wendy, then raises her arm once... It falls.]

Kenny: That’s one!

Evonne: Gimme one of those folding chairs! _I’ll_ clobber the little punk! If
she wins this I’ll never be able to live with myself!

Kenny: Sit down, Evonne!

[Again the referee raises Wendy's arm into the air... And it falls!]

Kenny (and the crowd): TWO!

Evonne: This isn’t happening! That’s it! This is a bad dream. A nightmare!
That’s the only possible reason why the schoolgirl hasn’t been torn limb from
limb!

Kenny: I’m afraid you’re wide awake, Evonne.

[For the final time the referee raises Wendy's arm, and...]

[It falls!!!]

Kenny: THREE! THREE!!! IT’S OVER! After three matches we finally got a decision
between these two! The ref is calling for the bell! It’s official!

Evonne: [stunned] I don’t believe it? how did this pipsqueak beat a pro like
Wendy Ryker?

[The bell rings.]

[The arena erupts in cheers for DARIA . The ref consults with Fiona Miranda.
DARIA has broken the D-Clutch and falls backwards, exhausted. Ring attendants
are rushing to check on Wendy Ryker]

Kenny: [stunned] I? I think we just witnessed the birth of new star?

Evonne: [terse] Shut up! DARIA Wakizawa got lucky! It’s a fluke! A plain old
fluke! I doubt she’ll ever be able to pull something like this off again! It’s
just because Wendy’s not as vicious as she was when she was younger. Back then
she would have torn DARIA’s throat out and laughed about it! She’s gone soft!

[The ring attendants have revived Wendy Ryker, who is now sitting up looking
glassy eyed and exhausted. DARIA is leaning on several ring attendants for
support, a towel wrapped over her bleeding cut. Finally Fiona raises the mic to
her lips]

Fiona Miranda: Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of this match in a time 24
minutes 37 seconds by submission?

[The crowd already erupts knowing the verdict]

Fiona: “PURE HEART FIGHTER? DARIA WAKIZAWA!

["Get Over" by dream begins to play. DARIA leans against a ring attendant tears
streaming down her face as she cries. Wendy Ryker is also sitting in the ring,
clenching and unclenching her fists with a look of pure disbelief on her face.]

Kenny: My lord what a match! I’m? I’m almost numb from the experience!

Evonne: I? I suppose I have to give credit? DARIA Wakizawa pulled it out. I
don’t think she can do it day in and day out but I’ll give her my respect for
the moment because she earned it!

Kenny: Both women earned respect for each other Evonne! Respect from each other
and from the fans!

[DARIA is standing center ring, still leaning on a ring attendant for support.
She shrugs the ring attendant and walks over to Wendy Ryker. Wendy is standing,
leaning on the ropes. Both women stand face to face]

Kenny: What have we here?

[DARIA, eyes filled with tears, offers out her hand to Wendy who looks at
it...]

Evonne: Maybe this isn’t as over as we thought.

Kenny: She wouldn’t…

Evonne: If you’d ever seen the _old_ Wendy you wouldn’t say that.

[A hush falls over the crowd as they watch Daria stand there with her hand
outstretched, Wendy still looking at it. She looks at the fans, then back at
the hand again, and grabs it...]

Evonne: Now, SUCKER PUNCH HER!

[...And then RAISES DARIA'S ARM IN VICTORY, pointing at the younger woman with
her other hand as the crowd bursts into a deafening cheer. As the fans go
ballistic both women embracing in a tear filled, exhausted hug, before Wendy
once again raises DARIA's arm up in the air, a grin on the veteran's face now
as she gestures for the crowd to make even _more_ noise.]

Kenny: What a great moment of sportsmanship!

Fiona: [sarcastically] Oh yes isn’t it just wonderful?

[In the ring Wendy has now gotten the microphone from Fiona and approaches
DARIA again.]

Wendy: Well, that was fun.

[She grins, rubbing her throat a bit where the D-clutch was applied. The crowd
is still cheering, but calms down a bit as she speaks.]

Wendy: Ya know, kid… When I first heard I was fighting a nineteen year old
girl fresh outta wrestling school in my first match here in BRA, I admit it, I
didn’t take it seriously. I mean, here I was, having first laced up my
wrestling boots almost a decade ago, and they put me in with a rookie? That’s
pretty much what I was thinking. I admit it, I thought you were just another
wrestler-wannabe.

[She pauses, looking straight at DARIA.]

Wendy: Well, ya proved me wrong, kiddo. And when Wendy Ryker’s wrong about
someone she admits it. You’re as tough and rough as any man or woman I’ve ever
stepped in the ring with, and a lot smarter than most of ‘em. Tonight you
_earned_ your win over Wendy Ryker the _hard_ way! You went for damn near half
an hour and never gave up. _That_ takes guts! DARIA, you’re the _real_ deal,
and anyone wants t’ dispute that is gonna have t’ take it up with yours truly.
As far as I’m concerned, you’re okay, kiddo.

[Wendy offers the microphone to DARIA who, with tears flowing from her eyes
bows in respect to Wendy as she accepts the mic.]

DARIA: Wendy-san, the honor to wrestle you was greater than any words can
express [DARIA wipes her eyes] You have honored me 3 times by agreeing to
wrestle me 3 times. You have shown me what I need to do to survive in BRA. I
hope someday I?ll have that honor again. Domo Arigato Gozaimasu!

[DARIA bows to Wendy. Wendy smiles and pats DARIA on the back and directs her
to the crowd, almost all of who are cheering.]

DARIA: [speaking into the microphone again] And to all of you, the fans?
Thank you. When my mentor Rekka-sensei told me that Victory is best when shared
with a crowd, at that time I didn?t understand. Well Rekka-sensei, D-chan
understands what you mean now. All of you.. DOMO ARIGATO GOZAIMASU!

[DARIA bows to the cheering fans. When she returns to her standing position she
raises her hands, flashing twin ?Victory? signals with an exhausted smile
on her face as Wendy stands by, cheering her on]

Kenny: We have got to go to a commercial break. We will be right back!

[We cut away for a commercial. When we come back "Dead Wrong" hits and the
crowd immediately erupts into boos. The curtains part and Marissa Monet strides
down the aisle. She looks out at the crowd with cold, lifeless eyes. She
studies them for a moment, analysing whether they are a threat or merely part
of the scenery. She seems to see nothing worth her interest because her eyes go
back to the ring. She is dressed in tight-fitting, hip-hugging jeans and a
white bra top that exposes the taut planes of her midriff. Her hair is pulled
back in a simple pony tail. She wears her into two single cornrows that travel
back around her forehead into one big afro puff. She steps into the ring in her
high-heeled boots, towering over the scene. With her boots and hair, her 6'6
height seems to stretch above seven feet. She gestures sharply for a
microphone. As she takes it in her big right hand she lifts it slowly to her
bright red mouth. A smile splits them, showing big white teeth. A killer gleam
comes into her eye.]

Marissa: Candi Bratton, I don’t forget. Once an enemy always an enemy. I know
these people out here are wondering why I attacked you and your pathetic little
daughter. I know it seemed irrational. Unnecessary. Well, see, Candi Bratton
has had this coming for about a year now. One year ago I signed a contract with
a penny ante little wrestling federation. I just finished beating the tar out
of a woman and all of a sudden Candi Bratton decided to jump me from behind.

[The crowd cheers. That makes Marissa's expression go completely cold.]

Marissa: That was the crowd reaction back then, too. (slight smirk) I never
forgot that. But that promotion closed after one night. And I never got my
chance for revenge. But I never forgot. I never forgot and though I had to wait
one year for the pleasure I had blood in my mouth. No one … absolutely no one
gets over on the Great Black Shark. Bratton, I know you wanted to make your
mark as the best big woman in the sport back then. I might have done the same
thing. But, you picked the wrong target. Whatever you try to do to me. I will
do worse to you. You embarrassed me in a back alley bingo hall … I eat your
child in front of national television audiences. I trust you’ve learned your
lesson. Stay out of my way. Because everybody who swims in my water … be they
wrestler … be they referee … be they some stupid announcer (her cold gaze
falls on Kenny Harbour) … be they the president of the BRA … or be they
these fans sitting at ringside.

[The arena goes quiet as the intensity of her words sinks in. Marissa gazes at
them all, a naked hunger expressed across her face.]

Marissa: You thought “Blood in the Water” was a catchphrase? Let me catch your
scent. Swim across my nose. Disturb me and I will kill each and every one of
you as easily as I will tear apart that fat walrus Candi Bratton. Now, I keep
hearing that “Delilah Strain” has heard all about my “confrontation” with Candi
and whenever she gets back from Japan she’s going to deal with the situation. I
suppose she means to deal with me. Candi, you’re absolutely pathetic. I thought
you were supposed to be big and bad. You aren’t bad. You aren’t even that big.
You’re just fat. Like a big fat juicy seal.

[Marissa smiles a glittering killer's smile. The scary thing is the smile
absolutely does not reach her eyes. They remain dead and flat, lifeless doll's
eyes.]

Marissa: Big fat juicy seals are the natural prey of the Great Black Shark.
When I see you … I’m going to bite you. A shark can bite 50lbs of flesh with
one snap of its jaws. So, I should be able to finish you in ten bites. There’s
going to be nothing but shreds of flesh, shards of bone and gobbets of flesh
scattered around the ring. In fact, Bratton, do yourself a favour. Stay out of
the water … stay out of this ring … until Strain gets back. It’s just not
safe to get in the ring. I’ve got the taste for you now. And I’ve got your
scent. I can’t wait to devour you … oooh, Marissa’s gonna..

[Interrupting Marissa?s catchphrase is the sounds of ?Sex and Candy? by
Marcy?s Playground. The fans erupt to their feet as a lone figure stands at
the top of the ramp. She stands tall and proud, in her black t-shirt that says,
?I?m The S**t!? She got her black trunks on as well, as her black
wrestling boots. She?s here for business. She?s holds up a dented chair and
brings the microphone to her lips.]

Candi: Well now! I?ve been waiting for weeks for you to break our that
classic catchphrase you used to use in the early 80s!

[Marrisa looks a tad confused as she was probably a toddler in the early 80s.]

Candi: You know what I?m talking about.. let?s all say it together!..

[Candi lowers her voice and breaks out with.]

Candi: Grape Ape! Grape Ape!

[The fans erupt in laughter and Marissa looks pissed. She starts to pace in the
ring like an animal.]

Candi: C?mon.. we loved ya then.. why?d you turn so bitter? Hm? What has
got your panties in a bunch?! Remember this?

[She holds out the dented chair.]

Candi: This is the chair you hit me with last week. I saved is special for this
night.. because you see.. I?m going to march down there.. I?m going to
crack your skull open! You want to talk about a year ago? How about this.. you
were thinking you were something special.. but, you were #23 in your debut
year. You weren?t special. You were the average musclehead! All brawn. No
Brains. You want to run around like you?re all that.. I put you in your place
and that was that. It was business. But.. you decided to make it personal by
attacking my kid. So fine.. I?ll make it personal. But I don?t need this..

[Candi slams down the chair and marches down the aisle.. Marissa motions her to
bring it on.. Candi walks up the ringsteps and steps into the ring.. Marissa
charges, but powder flies from Candi?s hand and hits Marissa in the face.
Marissa stops mid-charge and grabs her face.. her eyes stinging from the salt.]

Kenny: We?ve got ourselves an impromptu match here! Candi Bratton just threw
some powder into Marissa?s face.

Evonne: That?s because she?s a cheater.. and cheater?s never win!

Kenny: You come up with that all by yourself..

Evonne: Shut up.

[Candi picks up Marissa?s microphone.]

Candi: Oh.. in case you were expecting reinforcements..

[The Angel-tron comes to life with Sierra?s locker room in view. There is
some pounding heard, however a board has been nailed across the door,
preventing anyone from coming out of that particular dressing room. But Marissa
has no idea as she?s still blinded. Candi slides out of the ring..]

Kenny: Candi Bratton has got to be the most intelligent person to ever step
foot in the wrestling ring.

[Candi pulls out a glove and then some barbed wire. She carefully wraps some of
the wire around the heavy duty glove. She slides back into the ring, accidently
catching her shirt on the barbed wire.. she pulls it free, but ripping her
shirt a bit in the process. She walks over and grabs a handful of Marissa?s
hair and drills her in the forehead with the glove. Immediately, blood begins
to pour from the forehead of Monet.]

Evonne: This is uncalled for!

[In the ring, Candi is talking to Monet as she drills her again with the glove.
?You wanna put your hands on my kid? Go right ahead.? She nails her again.
On the Angel-tron, security is trying to get the board off of Sierra?s door..
they finally pry it off and Sierra and Indigo burst through it and take off.
Candi is able to drill her a couple more times before Sierra and Indigo come
into view, sprinting down the aisle. Candi drops and rolls from the ring as the
Brownes check on the condition of their friend. Candi holds the glove high and
walks backwards from the ringside area. Monet looks up in a rage as she watches
Candi. She lets out a curdling scream.]

Kenny: I have never seen someone handle Marissa Monet in that way before. Let
me tell you something. Monet may have bitten off more than she can chew here..
a barbed wire match set for Red Blood Cell.. Monet vs. Bratton.. it?s going
to be a big one!

Evonne: I can?t wait for Marissa to put that fat cow in her place.

Kenny: We are scheduled to see the return of the Plush Sisters next, as Chrissy
Daniel is supposed to meet Helene Wikers, however I am being told we are
running short on time and we will have that match for you on next week?s Girl
Talk. Up next, the Eastern Continental Championship will be on the line.
We?ll be back!

[We cut to another commericial.]

[The arena darkens, as a spotlight centers on the ring and Fiona Miranda.]

Fiona: This match is your main event. It is scheduled for one fall and it is
for the Battling Ring Angels? Eastern Continental Championship. Introducing
the challenger..

[Elton John's "Made in England" begins to play over the PA system.]

Fiona: Weighing in at 120 pounds.. this is ?Sensational?.. Shea.. LONDON!

[Shea starts jogging down the aisle, slapping hands with fans, her speed
increasing as she approaches the ring. Reaching ringside, she slides under the
bottom rope, rolling up, and then springing onto her feet and sprinting towards
the farthest corner from her. Taking hold of the top rope, she springs into the
air, landing in a crouched position atop the turnbuckle. She stands, balancing
herself on the top rope, arms raised high above her head, flashing the crowd
her trademark grin asserts its supremacy. Taking a deep breath, she launches
into a backflip, landing on her feet near the center of the ring, sticking the
landing perfectly. Humongous pop.]

Fiona: And introducing her opponent..

[Back To Life by "Soul to Soul? starts to play over the loudspeakers and the
crowd starts to cheer.]

Fiona: She is the current reigning Eastern Continental Champion! She weighs in
at 131 pounds.. this is Veronicaaaaaa.. Miiiiiillllllionssss!

[Pyros start to go off around the entrance ramp and out will step Veronica
Millions wearing a satin bikini and a pair of black low cut boots with a jacket
and a pair of sunglasses, and around her waist is the Eastern Continental
Championship belt. She stands at the top of the ramp for a few seconds and then
heads towards the ring. She steps into the ring and walks to the center of the
ring. She stands there for a few seconds then strikes a sexy pose as pyros go
off all around the ringside area. After that she will walk to the ring corner
and remove her jacket and then throw her sunglasses into the crowd. She hands
the title to referee Lara Bratton and as Bratton holds the title high, Millions
walks to the center of the ring and offers her hand.]

Evonne: She?s gunna suckerpunch London.. just you watch..

[Shea looks at the hand for a moment, then walks up and takes the hand. A firm
shake, then Bratton calls for the bell.]

Kenny: Shows what you know.. Not everyone has to take the cheap shot to me
successful in BRA.

Evonne: I guess those who don?t cheat have luck, eh?

Kenny: We have a lock up here.. Millions with the headlock. London shoots her
into the ropes.. shoulderblock by Millions and London goes down.. Millions runs
across the ring, London ducks down.. rebound by Millions.. armdrag by London..
Millions is up.. but another armdrag by London.. and a third as well and
Millions rolls out of the ring to regroup..

Evonne: London with a decent start, but Millions has shown her smarts by
getting out of Dodge here.. breaking all the momentum that London has built up.

[London motions for Millions to come back in the ring.. Millions up on the
apron and she slowly steps into the ring. As she does, London runs over and
dropkicks her in the head and Millions falls into the ring. London pulls her to
her feet and whips her across.. nailing her with a somersault clothesline.]

Evonne: A little aggression by London, I?m liking it.

[London pulls Millions to her feet and hooks her in and lifts her up.. falling
backwards into a vertical suplex. London covers..]

One..

Kenny: Quick kickout by Millions.. London pulls up Millions who fires back with
a series of uppercuts.. London staggers back into the ropes.. Millions with a
whip.. she catches London with a powerslam!

One..

Kenny: This time it?s London who kicks out quickly. Millions pulls her up..
whip.. NO! Reversal by London.. wait.. another reversal and OH!

[London is inadvertently sent head to head with Lara Bratton and they both go
down.]

Evonne: Bratton getting in the way again.. stupid girl..

[London is slow to get to her feet.. Millions off the ropes.. RUNNING
FACESLAM!]

Kenny: Millions is motioning to the crowd here..

[Millions picks up London and drapes her across her shoulder.. ]

Kenny: TOMBSTONE! It?s over!

[Millions covers London, but Bratton is still out of it.. the fans get to their
feet as Ina Hymich runs down the aisle and slides into the ring.. and starts a
count..]

One..

Two..

Thre..

Kenny: Kickout by London! This match could have been over right here..

Evonne: I?ll tell you what.. luck is truly on London?s side tonight.

Kenny: Millions is a bit frustrated here.. she nails her finisher and there?s
no ref.. Head Referee Hymich is now in the ring.. other officials are helping
Lara Bratton from ringside..

[Millions charges into the ropes as a slowly rising London makes her way up.. ]

Kenny: HOLY…!!

[London, who is leaning against the ropes, backdrops Millions who sails up and
over the ropes.. she comes down on her back, however, her leg crashes against
the guardrailing and an audible ?pop? is heard..]

Evonne: Was that her leg??

Kenny: I have no idea.. but Hymich may need to stop this match..

[Millions grabs her leg and screams out in pain.. immediately Ina Hymich leaves
the ring to check on Millions.. London slides from the ring as well.. ]

Kenny: Both London and Hymich going out to check on the condition of Millions..

Evonne: I don?t think a leg is supposed to bend in that direction, Ken..

[Hymich turns to the bellkeeper but London stops her.. and pleads with her..
she hurries over to Millions and pulls her to her foot and rolls her into the
ring.. Hymich looks shocked, then follows them in.. Millions rolls on the
ground, clutching her leg as London climbs up the turnbuckle..]

Kenny: What in the world?!?

Evonne: Hey.. she?s not letting this opportunity pass her up..

[The reaction from the crowd is mixed as the decision by Shea London, who soars
off the turnbuckle, nailing the Sensational Leg Drop.. she covers and Ina
Hymich, who a moment ago was going to stop this match, pauses before dropping
down..]

One..

Two..

Thre..

Kenny: Oh my DOG!

[London looks up at Hymich who?s hand is an eighth of an inch from the mat..
Millions arms is straight up in the air, her shoulder off the mat.. ]

Evonne: You?ve got to be kidding me! That girl has to be in a ton of pain.. I
think her leg is broken..

[London gets to her feet as if fighting with herself.. she looks down at the
tear stained face of Veronica Millions who is grabbing her leg.. suddenly, as
if making a decision, London reaches down and grabs the injured leg of Millions
and applies a spinning toe hold..]

Evonne: Yes! I love this! London has that desire! She wants this bad!

Kenny: It?s not illegal.. but it surely isn?t very sportsmanlike on the
part of Shea London..

[Millions screams out in pain as London wraps the leg around her own.. then
suddenly, Millions just collapses on the mat.. Hymich checks on the condition
of Millions and immediately calls for the bell..]

Kenny: I think Hymich is stopping this match..

Evonne: What are you talking about?!? London has this girl beat!

[As soon as the bell rings, London releases the hold and drops down the check
on Millions our of concern.]

Fiona: The referee?s decision in this match is as follows..

[The crowd becomes quiet.. London is motioning for paramedics to come to
ringside..]

Fiona: The referee has stopped this bout due to the fact that Veronica Millions
has lost consciousness. The winner of this match.. and NEW..

[Mixed reactions from the crowd at that revelation..]

Fiona: .. Eastern Continental Champion.. ?Sensationallllll?.. Sheaaaaaa..
Londonnnnnn!

[Medical team hits the ring and begins to assist Veronica Millions, as Shea is
handed the EC belt. She doesn?t hold it up in the air.. she just takes it and
watches as the paramedics assist Millions..]

Evonne: Regardless of what these fans think, Shea London did the right thing.
She?s in this to be the best and she had opportunity to take the championship
and she took it. Anyone out there would have done the same thing.

Kenny: We are just about out of time for this edition of PowerTrip.. join us
next week for Girl Talk, then in two weeks for the Battling Ring Angels?
special, ?Red Blood Cell? coming to you live! Don?t you dare miss it!

[Closing moments of last week's Gospel Truth]

[Ed] Danny Bouchard setting up for the Jumping DDT and? here comes Traci Lane!! Danny drops Fantasia and grabs the referee as Lane takes a swing.. and Lane connects with the referee..

[Biff]
Danny sure isn’t making any friends here.. he jumps from the ring and Lane takes another swing at him..
==========
[The Primal Rage opening sequence plays, showing a couple of dinosaurs in wrestling tights going at it.. as the shot pans out, we see them in the ring, and a large gathering of cavemen in the 'audience'. The Shot continues to pan until the golden red sky it all we see and the stone lettering "Primal Rage" appears. The sequence shatters as we are taken to a packed house with fireworks and pyrotechnics.]

[Ed]
This is Primal Rage.. and we are LIVE in San Diego California. And regardless of the potential flooding, we are going on with the show.. The OWA doesn’t yield to wind or weather.. it’s the OWA vs. El Nino.. along with me tonight, as usual, my co-host Biff Franklin.

[Biff]
Thought you were going to get away from me without a word, didn’t ya?

[Ed]
Pardon..

[Biff]
Word from the home office is that your contract is up and that you haven’t resigned.. in fact, word is that you’ve told them that you are moving on to other opportunities.

[Ed]
Er.. I wasn’t going to make a big deal about it.. but since you brought it up. I have decided not to renew my contract with the OWA and will be moving on to other projects..

[Biff]
So I guess I’ll be running this show, as a solo from then on. How long ya sticking around?

[Ed]
Actually, I’ll be here up until Endurance’s Evil Challenge, and then they’ll be bringing in a replacement.. in fact, I’ve heard they’ve already hired someone.

[Biff]
Without consulting me? Oh! I hope it’s not some Dusty Rhodes wanna be..

[Ed]
I don’t think that’ll be the case, Biff.

[Biff]
Hey.. if you know something, you better spill it..

[Ed]
On tonight’s card.. We have a TV Title match, a possible career ending match, and a Bunkhouse battle royal! And as you heard in a special announcement earlier this week.. Consuelo Salyards has dropped from the WFW World Women’s Title tournament! She will be replaced by the winner in the Stacks Coltrain/Mariko match.

[Biff]
So.. you do know something..

[Ed]
Let’s go to ringside for our first match.
========
[Mariko is already making her way to ringside..]

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. The winner to advance to the WFW Women’s Tournament at Endurance’s Evil Challenge. Already in the ringside area.. weighing in at 167 pounds.. representing the Femme Fatale.. this is Mariko!!
========
(Sitting in The Crew’s locker room Stacks is getting ready for to wrestle for the evening…..Monty, Shogun and Executioner are in various forms of undress…..)

[Stacks]
Ahhh, the camera crew is here. Well Mariko tonight is the night. It has been a long time since I have had the opportunity to “Dance” in the squared circle. But I promise I will be bringing everything I got. Mariko the slot in the Tourney is mine, and I will prove it to you tonight. And Virgo about this little deal we had, for months and months you BEGGED to come back to The Crew. We told you the time wasn’t right, so you turn around and join with some scum. Let me explain something to you, You have a problem with wanting to be accepted, you have a problem but you know what, WE WILL CORRECT IT, I PROMISE YOU THAT.

(Scene fades)
=======
[Announcer]
And her opponent.. coming down the aisle, standing 6′1″ and weighing in at 185lbs, representing the Crew!.. this is Stacks Coltrain!

(A spotlight hits the entrance to the locker Room and out walks Stacks Coltrain. Dressed in her black fatigues with “CREW” stitched down the side of the pants and in her highly shined combat boots. Will Smith’s “Lets Get Jiggy” is playing over the sound system. She is shaking hands with the fans as she makes her way to the ring)

[Ed]
Stacks Coltrain going up against Mariko.. these two have met before.. Mariko is a former TV Champion, while Stacks is a former World Champion. In fact, Stacks, in her rookie year, defeated Anthony Hazard and Rachel Ryan in a triangle ladder match to win the OWA Championship.

[Biff]
So.. you’re not gonna tell me.. great, I’m probably gonna be stuck with some idiot I’ll have to carry for the rest of my life..

[Ed]
There’s the bell..

[Biff]
Damn you?

[Ed]
Lock up.. NO! Mariko fakes and nails Coltrain with a spin kick.. and Coltrain is on rubber legs already.. those kicks are lethal.. and Mariko nailing the Spinning Crescent kick right after that and Coltrain is out!!

[Biff]
Coltrain needs to get on the ball.. Mariko with a cover.. one.. two.. and Stacks gets her foot on the ropes.. Mariko has put the best away with that kick right there.. if she had Stacks in the middle of the ring, right there, this match would be history already.

[Ed]
Mariko pulls up Stacks and whips her into the ropes.. and nails her with a shoulderblock.. Stacks goes down again.. Stacks slow to her feet.. and Mariko nails her with a flying headscissors takedown. And Mariko with a choke!

[Biff]
Haha.. this is one of my old favorite moves.. Referee counts, but Mariko breaks on the four count.. and she chokes again.. breaking again on the four count.

[Ed]
Mariko with a whip.. reversal by Coltrain and she hits Mariko with a backdrop.. Mariko up.. Football Tackle by Stacks.. and a flying axehandle! Coltrain getting the upper hand as she sets up and nails a piledriver!

[Biff]
Stacks trying for a dragon suplex.. but Mariko with the block.. Mariko with a thrust kick to the head and that staggers Coltrain. Stomachbreaker by Mariko.. and a cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Stacks.

[Ed]
Mariko into the ropes and nails Stacks with a clothesline.. Backbreaker by Mariko.. and another cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Coltrain. Mariko with a dropkick, but Stacks side steps it.. and drops an elbow to the back of Mariko.

[Biff]
Stacks with a slingshot somersault splash!!! Cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Mariko.. Stacks setting up the Femme.. and nails the Spinning Powerbomb!! Cover.. one.. two.. three!! Stacks goes to the tournament!

[Ed]
Great showing by both of these two.. but Stacks pulling it out in the end.. let’s take this break and be back for more action.
========
(’Mistress’ Monica Brant’s beautiful face fills the screen for a moment, highlighting her high cheekbones and wide smile. Then, the camera pans back, to show her gorgeous long blond hair, and then her attractive figure clad in a light blouse and dark black jeans. As the camera pulls back even more, we see Monica is standing in a salon.)

[Monica]
Hello, out there. Welcome to a little place I like to call home.

(She gestures, and the camera moves to where she’s pointing. A sign says “Monica’s Place”.)

Life isn’t all headlocks and pins for me, dearies. I also have a bit of a side business, as you can see. Keeps me in hairspray, anyway.

(Monica smiles, and then leads the camera on a small tour of the shop. We see various celebrities getting their hair done, their nails cut, their wigs re-sewn, their head buffed, whatever. After seeing that for awhile, Monica waves the camera over to a quiet corner.)

[Monica]
Well, enough fun. Down to business. (She smirks at the camera.) Danny Bouchard, I think we all know what you can do with your little flag pole there. I swear, I’ve never seen a more insecure man. I merely point out that his pole is small and drooping a little, and he looses it! Bouchard, I gave you a chance at an easy beating. You didn’t take it, and now you’ve got Traci to deal with. They don’t call her the Black Widow because her last husband worked at a coal mine, pal. Better learn to eat through a straw.

(Monica is interrupted by a young man who hands her a clipboard with some information on it. She looks it over, makes a few alternations with a pen, and hands it back.)

[Monica]
And now, the next waste of skin, Davey Scott. I see your time off hasn’t mellowed you a bit. If you’re serious about that no DQ, no count-out retirement match. Scott, send me the contract and I’ll sign it in a heartbeat. If you aren’t serious, then buckle up, boy. You’re going a for an all-expense paid trip down the high-way of sin, with yours truly as your cab driver. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, Davey. You’ve tried to make a fool out of me, and I will not stop until I’ve made a fool of you.

(Monica smiles, and blows a kiss at the camera.)

[Monica]
Expect me most when you expect me least. Bye bye, Davey.
==========
[Announcer]
This match is one fall. This stipulation is in place that states that if Davey Scott loses this match, he’ll be banned from OWA competition permanently. First.. coming down the aisle.. weighing at 275 pounds.. this is Davey Scott!

["Don't trend on Me" begins to play as Davey walks down the alleyway with a mix reaction with posters displaying that type of reaction. Davey gets into the ring and waits for the match.. the house lights flicker a bit.]

[Announcer]
And, his opponent…

(Crowd starts to cheer as “Superbitch” by 2Preciious comes over the PA)

[Announcer]
She hails from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and weighs in at 151lbs. Here is “Mistress” Monica Brant!

(Familiar pink smoke starts to billow from the locker room as the music continues. The smoke pours for a few seconds, but no Monica.)

[Biff]
HA! Probably afraid to face Davey again!

(Suddenly, there’s the sound of an explosion, and dark black smoke disapaits the pink clouds. Through this comes ‘Mistress’ Monica Brant. She wears loose-fitting, black leather pants and a dark green, long-sleeved top. Her hair is drawn back in a pony tail, and she wears a pair of sunglasses. She walks directly to the ring, marches up the ring steps, and stares right at Davey Scott.)

[Ed]
And Monica Brant ready to take Davey Scott out of the OWA for good. Hopefully the power will hold up during this storm.. El Nino acting up here in Southern California.

[Biff]
You know what El Nino stands for right?

[Ed]
What’s that?

[Biff]
The Nino.

[Ed]
Biff..

[Biff]
Tell me who your replacement is and I’ll ease up on you in your last few weeks here..

[Ed]
Davey and Monica in a stare down here.. and there’s the bell.. and Monica pulls Davey down and starts pounding on him. And this fight is underway.. Monica is pulling no punches on this one.

[Biff]
Davey pushes her off and gets to his feet.. he goes for a dropkick, but Monica dodges it and pulls him up.. powerbomb? No! Davey with a backdrop.. and he pulls up Monica.. and.. looks to be going for a piledriver.. but Monica with a backdrop of her own.

[Ed]
Monica with a whip.. reversal by Scott.. he ducks for a backdrop, but Brant with a swinging neckbreaker.. she gets up and blows a kiss to the audience, but Scott gets right up to his feet! He’s on fire tonight.. he nails her with a clothesline.. and another.. Scott with a backbreaker..

[Biff]
He pulls her up and sets her on the top turnbuckle.. he goes up.. and SUPERplex! Cover by Scott.. one.. two.. kickout by The Mistress.. Scott rubs Brant’s face across that top turnbuckle and hiptosses her to the middle of the ring.

[Ed]
Scott is climbing to the top..

[Everything goes black, the crowd 'oooooos' and a few screams are heard.. backup lights kick on.. in the ring, Monica Brant has crawled to a corner.. but Davey Scott isn't in the ring.. camera moves to see that he's fallen to the outside and is clutching his leg. Lights kick back on..]

[Ed]
.. the hell is going? we’re back? We’re on? Fans.. apparantly the storm here today has caused a blackout.. we have some paramedics coming to ringside to tend to Davey Scott.. we have no idea what exactly happened here, but the assumption is that then the lights went out, Scott slipped from the turnbuckle and went down to the floor.. landed wrong on his leg and is now being attended to by paramedics.

[Biff]
Is there any sort of decision here?

[Ed]
I.. I don’t think so.. I’m assuming the match has been stopped..

[Everything goes black again.. more crowd reactions.. then they pop back on after only a few seconds..]

[Ed]
It’s going to be an interesting night here.. the storm is really taking it’s toll here.. we still have two matches left to bring you.. and we’re going to try to do our best here.. with all the blackouts.. Luckily, out cameras are being powered by the truck outside.

[Biff]
How are we going to do a card when the lights keep going on..

[Ed]
I’m being told that emergency lighting will remain on.. so even if we lose the main lighting, we’ll have the backup. Let’s take this quick break and be back.
========
(Backstage, Danny Bouchard has chairs and a table set up outside his locker room and he and J.J. are waiting there, playing cards and splitting a two-four. Danny reaches down to grab another can and notices the camera.)

[BOUCHARD]
Eh, whaddya know. I tell you what, it been a while since I actually bothered to talk to you [CENSORED]s… I probably had more important stuff to think ’bout. Like tonight, Danny Bouchard’s gonna make his way into this here whatchamacallit tournament… eh, I don’t remember the name, but I tell you what, it’s for a belt, or some challenge or somethin’, right? What’s it matter, I gonna win that anyway, but first I gets to do some battle royal where I get to wear whatever I want. You stupid [CENSORED] anglophones in america probably think I’d play hockey gear, right?

[JJ]
They think that’s all we [CENSORED] talk about, eh?

[BOUCHARD]
Yeah, well, [CENSORED] that, I got something better… I got a couple friends in the RCMP and I’m waiting for those UPS [CENSORED]s to get me that package from them…

[JJ]
Hey, you think they know what the RCMP is?

[BOUCHARD]
Ah, probably not. Eh, you know, the police… the Mounties, ‘cept don’t expect me to be dressing up like no Mountie. Been done before, eh? Plus I gotta pay [CENSORED] Disney for it… I tell you what, in a few hours, Danny Bouchard’s gonna remind the other nine [CENSORED]s who bother showing up who Danny Bouchard is, they guy who won probably the most violent match in WSCSC… something like that… in like what, a year? You wanna give me something to hurt you with, eh, I’ll do it, you know? I’m gonna…

[A deliveryman heads over to the table.]

[DELIVERYMAN]
Mr. Bouchard? I’ve got a package here for you…

[BOUCHARD]
‘Bout [CENSORED] time. Gimme that.

[Bouchard grabs the large package and quickly signs the clipboard he is given.]

[BOUCHARD]
There. Now get the hell out of here. Ha ha ha! Say hello to the secret weapons!

[Danny runs into the dressing room, slamming the door. After a second, he opens it up again, grabs his beer, and motions to the camera.]

[BOUCHARD]
Okay, that’s all for now. You get the hell out of here too, you hear me? Just remember this: all you other nine wrestlers, get ready for the Pride Of Trois-Rivieres to wipe you out! HAHAHA!

[Danny reenters the dressing room, and the camera turns away to leave, as JJ opens another beer.] ========== [Announcer] This match is one fall.. and it is for the OWA TV Championship. First.. introducing the challenger. Coming to the ring, weighing in at 230 pounds. Here is.. Miguel Thunder!

[Miguel Thunder makes his way to ringside.. entering the ring.]

[Ring Announcer]
And his opponent.

["Thunder Kiss '65" by White Zombie blasts over the sound system.]

[Biff]
Is this an ECW show?

[Ring Announcer]
From Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada weighing in at 176 pounds the newly crowned TV champion- Fantasia!!!

[Ed]
She beat Godiva Rage just a few days ago.

[Biff]
But you gotta wonder if Rage had known her opponent would have been if the result would be the same.

[Ed]
The bottom line is, Fantasia is our TV Champ. Both wrestlers are in the ring.. Fantasia is giving the title to the ref.. and the ref calls for the bell.

[Biff]
There’s a lock up.. Thunder with a fireman’s carry.. Thunder with a boot to the midsection.. no! Fantasia catches it.. but Thunder nails her with an enzuigiri..

[Ed]
Thunder with a whip.. Fantasia comes off with a running forearm smash and Thunder is down.. Thunder on a bit of a streak, with his upset win last week over Pretty Boy Monty.

[Biff]

[Myers]
This is Myers Watterson reporting for the OWA and the WFW, as they combine to bring you Endurance’s Evil Challenge.

First let me announce that due to the overwhelming response to the WFW tournaments, the PPV itself has been moved to March 7-8, 1998.

This year will be something special as we not only will have one tournament, but two. The WFW has decided to split their world titles into two categories. The WFW Men’s World Title and the WFW Women’s World Title. Therefore for the first time in OWA history, a PPV will go not only one day.. but two days. Let’s get to the major announcements:

There will be a Western States Championship match between current champion Mr. America and number one contender Monica Brant.

Also Traci Lane taking on Danny Bouchard. And you know that after Deck The Halls, Lane wants a big piece of Bouchard.

Let’s talk about the WFW tournaments. They’ll be using Endurance’s Evil Challenge rules. This tournament is basically a quadathalon in testing wrestling skills.

16 competitors will be selected.

Round 1: Tag Team Skills
Round 1 tests the wrestler’s tag team abilities. They will be randomly paired, via a draw, with a tag team partner. Only teams winning in the first round will advance to the second round.

Round 2: Singles Skills
In Round 2, the winners of round 1 will then face their tag team partner from Round 1. Only 4 wrestlers will advance to the next round.

Round 3: Free For All Skills
The four wrestlers advancing to this round will meet in a four way dance. Once there are only two wrestlers remaining, this match will be stopped and the two will be sent to the finals.

Finals: Endurance.
The final two competitors will then face each other in a Texas Death Match. The winner will be the competitor who gets 3 consecutive falls over their opponent. The winner of this contest will be crowned the first WFW World Champion.

For the Men’s Division, Ricky Hype will be representing the OWA, along with the AGWF’s Lightweight Champion, Leo Joseph. Big news from the AGWF camp, Steve Lane the AGWF Champion has dropped suddenly from the tournament, and AGWF official are scrambling for a replacement. We also have commitments from the IWF.. as Repa and Sliver are EEC bound for the tournament. Futhermore.. UCW officials are scrambling to send participants over as well, and the WFW has commitments from the VCW for a couple participants.

As part of the Women’s tournament, from the OWA, Fantasia and Stacks Coltrain will be representing the OWA.. in from the IEWA, Medusa Rage will be part of the tournament, the GDWA Intercontinental Champion, Daisy Butterfly, as well as the GDWA Champion “Officer” May Order are part of the tournament. We are expecting the announce from the WCA camp, as well as the IEWA, regarding who’ll be participating from their league. And rumors have it that the WFW and the GDWA Western Heritage Champion Keiko Mita are having discussions as well.

It’ll be a night of Interfederation action as the OWA and the WFW combine, with many feds from around the world to bring you Endurance’s Evil Challenge.. LIVE on PPV.

Looks like trouble to me.. the three of them are high fiving each other in the ring as we wait for the next competitor.. we’ve got about 45 minutes left and the three Crew members are talking with each other..

[Ed]
Looks like it’ll be one of these guys in the WFW tournament..

[Timer]
3.. 2.. 1.. *honk*

[Ricky Hype steps through the curtain.. suddenly the chant echo's throughout the arena.. "Ricky Sucks! Ricky Sucks!"? He walks hesistantly towards the ring.. ]

[Ed]
Ricky Hype not looking like he wants to enter the lion’s den, so to speak.. he is circling outside.. the referee is telling him to get into the ring..

[Biff]
Hey.. if he doesn’t get into the ring, then he can’t get thrown out.. so he’s stalling for time..

[Ed]
The Crew members are telling him to get into the ring.. egging him on.? Looks like Monty and Shogun are stepping through the ropes and hopping to the floor, leaving Executioner in the ring alone and? Hype steps up onto the ring apron.

[Biff]
Hype steps through the ropes and Executioner is all over him..

[Timer]
3.. 2.. 1.. *honk*

[Godiva Rage takes her time coming to the ring?]

[Ed]
Godiva Rage taking her sweet time coming to ringside, and Monty and Shogun have reentered the ring and they are doing a number on Ricky Hype.. they are setting him up.. and a triple spiked piledriver!?? Oh my..

Monty pulling Hype to the middle of the ring and talking with Executioner.. they lift him up and Executioner clamps on the Cross Face Chicken Wing..

[Ed]
And Monty is standing back and watching.. Hype is trying to give up.. but there’s no giving up in this match.. Executioner just continues to push that move on Hype..

[Biff]
The referee is jawing at Monty, but Monty just grins at him and shrugs.? This is horrible.. they’re trying to put out Ricky Hype.. and he has a TV Title match later on in this card..

[Ed]
Looks like payback to me.. Ricky Hype is getting his just desserts right now.. and he’s gone limp on us.. Monty walks over and taps Executioner on the shoulder.. and he releases the hold.. and Hype is just lying there..

[Biff]
Monty and Executioner swap high fives and steps out over the top and drop to the floor.. what the hell?

[Announcer]
Pretty Boy Monty and Executioner have been eliminated.. the winner of this match in 23:29, advancing to the WFW Men’s Tournament.. Ricky Hype!

[Myers]
This is Myers Watterson reporting for the OWA and the WFW, as they combine to bring you Endurance’s Evil Challenge.?

First let me announce that due to the overwhelming response to the WFW tournaments, the PPV itself has been moved to March 7-8, 1998.?

This year will be something special as we not only will have one tournament, but two.? The WFW has decided to split their world titles into two categories.? The WFW Men’s World Title and the WFW Women’s World Title.? Therefore for the first time in OWA history, a PPV will go not only one day.. but two days.?? Let’s get to the major announcements:

There will be a Western States Championship match between current champion Mr. America and number one contender Monica Brant.?

Also Traci Lane taking on Danny Bouchard.? And you know that after Deck The Halls, Lane wants a big piece of Bouchard.?

Let’s talk about the WFW tournaments.? They’ll be using Endurance’s Evil Challenge rules. This tournament is basically a quadathalon in testing wrestling skills.

16 competitors will be selected.

The four wrestlers advancing to this round will meet in a four way dance.? Once there are only two wrestlers remaining, this match will be stopped and the two will be sent to the finals.

Finals: Endurance.
The final two competitors will then face each other in a Texas Death Match.? The winner will be the competitor who gets 3 consecutive falls over their opponent.? The winner of this contest will be crowned the first WFW World Champion.

Let’s go back to Boise.
============
[Scene shows Ricky Hype, being put into an ambulance and the ambulance rushes from the arena.. Asian Invasion walks back inside.. the scene switches back to the arena.]

[Ed]
The Crew has put Ricky Hype out..? and this will not sit well with TV Champion who’s scheduled to defend against Ricky Hype in a strap match..

[Biff]
Well.. I heard Godiva only took this match cause she hasn’t had a? date in a couple weeks.. I hear she likes the feel of that strap against her..

[Ed]
Cut that out.. let’s go to ringside..

[Announcer]
This match is one fall..

[The arena goes black, then is lit up by an impressive light show of green and red. The laser lights swirl all over the arena, then point to the curtains. Miguel Thunder shows up]

[Miguel]
Get ready for the royal ass-whipping you need for making me fight tonight!!!! I warned you that I wasn’t in the mood to hurt a good talent like you.

Listen, PRETTY BOY… I am in no mood to fight, but since you forced me, I’ll just get in the mood..? I hope you that it isn’t a good thing when I’m forced to fight, because my rage will be amplified x10, and I’ll injure you SEVERELY. I don’t care if I get any injury now; Hell, if I get killed, I’ll die with my job done, and that’s the truth! Now then, I have a job to do.

[Thunder steps into the ring..]

[The O'Jays "For The Love of Money" begins to play. As a spotlight dances around the arena it suddenly focuses on the opening leading to the locker rooms.? Out walks Monty.? A loud "pop" from the crowd gets louder and louder as he makes its way to ringside....High-fiving the crowd and taking his time to get to the ring.]

[Ed]
And Miguel Thunder is all over Monty.. catching him as he comes into the ring..? Thunder with a series of kicks and he pulls Monty up and drops him with a clothesline.. Thunder with a spin kick and Monty falls from the ring..

[Biff]
Thunder seems a different person this week.. I guess he’s tired of getting his face rubbed in the mat week after week..? Thunder goes out after Monty and whips him into the guardrailing.. and runs him face first into the ringpost and Monty is busted open.. woo!

[Ed]
Stop that.. Thunder rolling Monty back into the ring..? Thunder with a whip.. Monty ducks a clothesline and comes back with a clothesline of his own..? Thunder comes up and Monty catches him with a fallaway slam.. Monty with a cover.. one.. t.. kickout by Thunder..

[Biff]
Monty wiping the blood from his forehead.. he bodyslams Thunder and goes for another cover.. one.. t.. kickout by Thunder..? Monty pulls him up and runs off the ropes and nails Thunder with a flying lariat.. M

[Ed]
Monty with another bodyslam.. NO!? Small package by Thunder.. one.. two.. three!!

[Biff]
What the..

[Ed]
Upset win for Miguel Thunder over Pretty Boy Monty..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 7:17, Miguel Thunder!

[Voice Over]
Who truly is the best in professional wrestling?

[A series of action clips from the OWA are played in time with the fast driving music, then stops suddenly.]

[Voice Over]
Only one way to find out.. watch Endurance’s Evil Challenge, exclusively on PPV.
=========
[Suddenly a surge of crowd reaction as a man begins walking out in street clothes, looks more like a street fighter then a wrestler, with longer hair and sunglasses on.? Well who are we fooling, this is none other then Davey Scott and he walks down carrying a have a mic with him]

[Davey]
Ok, listen, I do have a few things to say but you have to shut up in order to listen don’t you think? First off, Monica Brant. Monica, you would probably listen and enjoy me cuss and curse your name..however, I can’t think of any insulting to say about you. [the crowd looks at him..] In fact, I can’t help but look in awe at you. Anyone who can knock me out of action, deserves some recognition.. and you, Monica, are the sole person who person who kocked me out!

So here is a proposal, I am challenging you to a match, a no dq, no countout match.. If you can beat me, as clean as it gets in that type of match, then I shall leave the OWA wrestling ranks.. forever this time. Here is the contract Monica.. *holding the paper up*.. all you have to do.. is sign it.

[Ed]
Davey Scott is.. is..

[Biff]
Is?

[Ed]
Have we determined if he’s legally sane or what?? Let’s go to ringside.

(Danny Bouchard’s personal ring announcer takes the microphone from the announcer and taps it once or twice, causing massive feedback.)

[JJ]
Eh?? Eh?? ?a marche?? Bien… Et maintenant voici, la prochaine champion de OWA, p?sant 116 kilogrammes avec un tailleur de 195 centimetres.? Il est un des plus grands legendes en Canada, et la Fi?rt? De Trois-Rivi?res!? Venant de Trois-Rivi?res, en La Belle Province de Quebec, Canada, le plus fort, le plus terrifiant,le meillieur de toutes les hommes, les femmes, et m?me Mr. America, voici DANNY BOUCHARD!!!

(The instrumenta O Canada begins, and Danny Bouchard, as always carrying the fleur-de-lis over his shoulder, makes his way to the ring.? A six-pack ring with a solitary can of Molson Canadian hangs at the end of the flagpole.? He hastens his stroll to the ring, barely bothering to toss the occasional insult at the fans, dodging garbage.? He hands the six pack to the ringside attendant, warning him not to touch his victory beer, then steps into the ring and waves his flag.)

[The ring announcer reclaims his microphone.]

[Announcer]
And, his opponent.? Hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada and weighing in at 153 lbs.? This is ‘Mistress’ Monica BRANT!

(The arena is silent for a few seconds, then the blasting of an electric guitat rift comes over the PA system.? It takes a few seconds, but eventually the crowd realises they’re listening to “Oh Canada”.? Then, Monica Brant comes through the curtains.? She’s wearing a one-piece outfit that is designed like the Candian flag.? She shakes the occasional hand as she comes down to ringside, giving Danny Bouchard a wary glare the whole time.)

[Ed]
Monica Brant getting into the ring.. and there’s the bell.. this one is underway..? referee turns to have the bell run and Danny Bouchard just nails her with that flagpole!

[Biff]
Danny Bouchard drops the pole to the outside and pulls up Brant and is signalling for the jumping DDT? but Traci Lane hits the ring with a chair and nails Bouchard!? Bouchard falls from the ring with Traci right on his heels..

[Ed]
The referee is calling for the bell.. I’m not sure what in the world is going on with this?

[Announcer]
The winner of the match.. as a result of a disqualification.. Danny Bouchard!

[The crowd starts to throw junk at the referee.. as he tries to attend to Monica Brant.]

[Biff]
Oh man.. the Lane/Bouchard feud steps up a notch..

[Ed]
Does it ever.. let’s go to some prerecorded comments from Asian Invasion and Ricky Hype, then we’ll have an update on the condition of “The Show”.
===========
(The scene opens to show Asian Invasion lounging poolside in a plush mountain resort.? The camera goes through several screens of him playing golf, working out, and dancing with the Spice Girls on top of his “The Way It Is” bus.? It then cuts to Asian and Ricky Hype, inside the bus.)

[Asian Invasion]
We’re back, Asian Invasion and Ricky Hype, and Ricky will go down in history today, the day the ultimate She-males title reign comes to an end.

[Ricky Hype]
That’s right ol’ buddy.? Everybody knows that the OWA television ratings have taken a major dive since America and Mrs. Godiva chocolates donned the belts.? The people want to see some action, a little “SHOW” if you will. Let me tell ya Asian, the OWA will be on every network and make Sportcenter every night when I win the TV belt!

[Asian Invasion]
I wish I was dating the commish, then I could get a title shot as soon as I entered the league.? I wish I didn’t have to work for anything like her ugliness.

[Ricky Hype]
Hey, the commish is just dating her because he has a crush on that chick from Frasier.? She’s from over there too ya know.? Hey Asian, you know how some people put down others when in reality they like the other person?? You sure you don’t have a Raging crush going? *big smile*

[Asian Invasion, glaring ]
And.. of.. course…, you also are in that Battle Royal too Ricky, you are the ULTIMATE iron man, aren’t you???

[Ricky Hype]
Iron man? That ain’t nothing compared to your match!? How the heck are you gonna get ready for the X-files match?? You could practice with a blindfold on I guess.

[Asian Invasion]
Well Ricky, when you’re as good a wrestler as I am, you don’t really have to worry about stuff like that.? I don’t care who I’m facing, I just wonder what kind of wuss wouldn’t show there face.? I mean, I’m sure that it’s some LOSER with hopes of beating a true champion like myself, and he didn’t want his friends talking his unfortunate ass out of having to face me, I’m sure you get alot of the same thing Ricky.

[Ricky Hype]
Heck no!? They already know they can’t beat me so they just walk down to the ring and hit my main.. man.. with a chair to get out of wrestling me.? To bad though, she could have been rolling around with a star.? Most babes only get a chance to rip off my cloths as I walk by.? You get alot of chicks trying to rip off your cloths Asian?

[Asian Invasion]
Yeah, luckily here in the OWA, we don’t have lovely woman, so we don’t have to worry about that.? I’m Asian Invasion,

[Ricky Hype]
and I’m Ricky Hype, the REAL TV champion!

[Asian Invasion and Ricky Hype]
And that’s The Way It Is.
==========
(Biff stands in the middle of the ring)

[Biff]
I would like to welcome a veteran of the squared circle. A one time OWA INN and Tag team champion. Please welcome from Kansas City. MO

[Big Guns by AC/DC blasts thru the arena]

[Biff]
“Pretty Boy” Johnny Stallion

(Johnny walks thru the curtain to an ovation of cheers, slides under the bottom ropes and poses for the crowd until the music dies)

[Biff]
Johnny I would like to welcome you to OWA and would kinda like to know why did you come back.

[Johnny]
Well Biff, my friend I have come back because there are a few people I have unsettled business with.

[Biff]
Like who?

[Johnny]
Well, lets start with, Mr America. You along with your flunkies have been a thorn in my side since back in the OWA and I would like to remove this thorn, by destoying it or just getting rid of it.

[Biff]
But why did you help Virgo & Trinity beat Team America

[Johnny]
Well Biff, that is simple I hate Team America and felt I needed to do something to help someone who hates them more than I do, so I helped the Trinity out.

[Biff]
Does this mean you are joining Trinity??

[Johnny]
Biff, Biff, Biff, did I say I was joining Trinity? I don’t think so.

[Biff]
So what are your imeadiate plans?

[Johnny]
Well right now I want to take care Mr. America or any member of Team America. So fellas keep an eye over your shoulder, for I just might be there. I am outta here! GOOD GAWD!

(Big Guns by AC/DC starts back up, Johnny poses in the ring and then hops over the top rope and heads for the back)

[Ed]
Word from the Boise Hospital is that Ricky Hype has suffered a dislocated shoulder and a minor neck injury as a result of the Cross Face Chicken Wing.?? They’re estimating about a three week recovery period. Let’s go to ringside.

[Ring Announcer]
This match is one fall.. and it is for the Western States Championship.

[Ed and Biff]
What the??

[Announcer]
First.. weighing in at 230 pounds.. hailing from New York City.. this is the challenger.. Asian Invasion!

[The arena goes dark, and the ring announcer is suddenly cut off by the laughing of Asian Invasion, followed by him saying, "That's The Way It Is" and then a Rage Against The Machine song kicks in while Asian comes through the curtain in a plush electric golf cart driven by a rather attractive woman. The arena remains dark, except for the spotlight following Asian into the ring.]

[Announcer]
And his opponent..

[The opening guitar rift from "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC rips through the air as a cheer from the crowd rises in the arena.? The drums kick in as the music fills the air in the arena.? Mr. America steps through the curtain and heads down towards ringside.. ]

[Announcer]
Weighing in at 278 pounds.. this is the Western States Champion.. Mr. America!

[Mr. America walks down to the ring.? He takes off his jacket and gets the house mic from the ring announcer's table.]

[America]
Asian Invasion, long time no see.? It looks like you got your wish for a title shot because *you’re* looking at your ‘mystery’ opponent.

[Mr. America smirks as the crowd cheers.]

[America]
I told everyone I had a suitable person to defend against and after walking away with a clean win, which surprised me even, against Exe.? I decided to be a real nice guy and give you your ten minutes of fame before you faded back into the background which has been the only other constant in career along with your failure.? So, let’s get things straight here. You and Hype are now a team.? I’m real happy for ya.? I’m all choked up inside that I just had to go out and by a “Way It Is” t-shirt because I ran out of toliet paper just the other day and I needed a suitable replacement.? Now, let’s talk about the good ol’ days and remember how things were back then, Asiy.? You see, I came into this fed and I got the attention of everyone.? From what I remember, the Plague ceased to exist and you and I joined forces.? We added Chaos and Fast Fighter to that mix, later on and somehow Trey Vibe was thrown in.? Anyhow, you had a match against Freddy Fever and while he was jackslapping you around with the one hand that wasn’t tied behind his back, it was me that got you that win via interference.? Yeah, I’ve said I gave up the TV title to put the cherade on about the whole Evil Empire.? I’ll admit it to this day.? You won the title the very next week, but wait…how’d you win it??

[Mr. America smirks and leans back.]

[America]
I’ll be damned!? It was *me* that helped *you* again!? So, we went on a merry little way and Fast Fighter was tossed out of the OWA and Evil Empire by me.? After that, the whole Empire fell.? WHy’s that?? Hell, we should’ve just called it Mr. America and let it be that because while you, Vibe, and Chaos were out scouting new jobs as mimes I carried the banner. I left and pretty much it fell apart.? It’s as simple as that and that’s the way it’s always gonna be, Asian.? I *was* the man in that alliance. You were the second rate joke who wanted the spotlight that America’s Perfection was getting.? You had the TV title and I was still more wanted in the ring than you were.? Hell, the only thing that’s changed now is gonna be Hype running down here to try to save you from a humilating defeat and he may accomplish that, but you’ve gotta realize something. You’ve never been able to do anything by yourself, Asian.? Me?? I *was* the Evil Empire and you’re still like all the rest.? You’re jealous of what every American aspires to be because I didn’t let you ride the coattails.? Face it, you’re out-gunned, you’re out-talked, and you’re all around just not the complete package of arrogance that I am.? Asian, I’m done talking and the time’s tickin’ away.? You’re ten minutes are almost up.

[Mr. America drops the mic and tosses it at Asian as he climbs into the ring to keep Asian at bay.]

[Ed]
Mr. America putting the OWA Title on the line again this week..

[Biff]
That guy must not want to keep his title or something.. he keeps putting it on the line every damn week.

[Ed]
I think Mr. America wants to prove he deserves that title and so he’s putting it up against everyone.? And Invasion is a top competitor here in the OWA..

[Biff]
Without a doubt..? America handing the title over to the referee who shows it to Invasion.. who grabs it and nails America in the head with it.. then tosses it out of the ring.. the referee is trying to get Invasion back..

[Ed]
Asian Invasion briefly stepping back and the referee calls for the bell.. and Invasion is right back in there all over America.? This is Invasion’s chance to grab this championship and he’s not letting up on America on bit.

[Biff]
Mr. America hasn’t even gotten his ring jacket off? Asian with a whip and a powerslam.. cover.. one.. kickout by America..? Invasion setting up and nails a double underhook piledriver and Mr. America is in serious trouble here right off the bat.

[Ed]
Invasion drives a knee to the back of America.. again and again..? Invasion setting up for another underhook piledriver, but America with a backdrop.. but Invasion with a sunset flip.. one.. two.. kickout by America..? Asian throws America out of the ring.. he tries to go out after him, but the referee is chewing him out..

[Biff]
Hold on.. here’s Johnny Stallion.. America up and Stallion nails him with a superkick and heads back out of the arena.. the referee turns to count..

[Ed]
The count it up to three.. and America isn’t moving at all..

[Biff]
Asian Invasion needs to stop that count..? and he does.. he goes out of the ring and rolls in America.. referee checking on America and here comes Taleis!!? Taleis nails Invasion and drops him with a Diamond Cutter and he’s outta there..

[Ed]
This match is out of control, Biff..? Referee with a count on Invasion? three.. four.. five.. six.. seven.. he’s not even moving.. nine.. ten.. the ref calls for the bell..

[Announcer]
The winner of the match by countout and STILL OWA Champion.. Mr. America!
=========
[At the coporate offices of the Crew following the most recent PPV.....Stacks is walking in to her office after working out.]

[Stacks]
Shelly Marks what are you doing in my office, again?

[Shelly]
Well Stacks, you told us a few weeks ago that you would be more active, after you straightened some business deals.? Well you weren’t and rumor has it that the Commish was a little vocal about your participation. After all he is paying you alot of money.

[Stacks]
Shelly, not that is the exact reason why I give most of my interviews to Elaine, at least she beats around the subject for a while. You are correct, the commish did get in touch with me, not for disciplinary reasons, just to see where my head was.? I promise you I am back.?? With that? said let me comment on what happened recently at Deck The Halls.? Ricky Hype and Asian Invasion,? I was unable to convey my thoungts at the Volleyball tournement but I tell you what, each one of you will pay.? At some point and some time, when it counts the most.? But for now I want to try and gain a shot at a belt.? It looks to me as if Ms. Salyards is a worth opponent.? We have never been at it before so I guess she would be a good test to see if I am back.? Consuelo? I extend this chanllenge to you no special stipulations just a good ol’ backyard brawl. I hope that I am up to the challenge.? And Traci, I am on my way back, it has been a long time……Now Shelly I have to ask you to leave I must change I have a flight to the West Coast in and hour and a half…..

[Shelly]
Oh..oh yeah,? Well folks there you have it Stacks Coltraine has promised that she is indeed back, and the champions better beware.
==========
[The commissioner is conferring with the referee..]

["Bring the Pain" signals the arrival of the Television champion.? Godiva marches down the aisle, slapping hands and smiling.? She's much more pleasant now as she bounces into the ring, rebounding off the ropes.]

[Ring Announcer]
Due to injuries to Ricky Hype in the battle royal, he’ll not be able to participate in the TV Title match.. therefore the commissioner has awarded the match to the champion Godiva Rage.

[Godiva in the ring shaking her head and asking for the microphone.]

[Godiva]
?Oi, you ruddy well think I came all the way out ‘ere in this bleedin’ mess and squeezed meself into this rather uncomfortable get up, right, just so Ricki ‘ype could up and disappear on me?? You really think that’s ‘ow it is, do ya?? Well, it ain’t ‘appenin’ that way at all, right.? No, I refuse to ‘ave it.? Oy, WSWC or wotever, you go backstage right bleedin’ now and you tell somebody that Godiva Rage, the PREMIER Femme demands some flippin’ competition right mothereffin’ now.? Awright?

[Godiva throws down the microphone with a loud din and storms about the ring, waiting.]

[The commissioner confers with the referee and nods to the ring announcer]

[Announcer]
The commissioner has stated that whoever wants to fight Godiva Rage for the TV title to come on out.

[Ed]
A gutsy move by the TV Champion.

[Biff]
I wonder who’ll be the first to accept it.

["Perfect Strangers" by Deep Purple blasts over the P.A.]

[Ed]
Well you don’t have to wonder long!

[Fantasia comes down to the ring dressed in black from head to toe.]

[Biff]
Hey, I think she got rid of some of her scar tissue!

[Fantasia climbs into the ring and takes the microphone.]

[Fantasia]
An open challenge huh? I accept!

[With that she blasts the TV Champ with the microphone.]

[Ed]
The bell has rung and Fantasia going to work on the TV Champion Godiva Rage.. in this impromptu match.. Godiva begging off a bit.. but nails Fantasia with a shot to the stomach and another and Fantasia backs up..

[Biff]
Godiva up and nails Fantasia with a belly to belly suplex.. and Godiva running her hands all over Fantasia.. seems like the old Godiva is back.. she pulls up Fantasia and nails her with a running forearm smash.. and goes for.. what could be a cover.. one.. t.. kickout by Fantasia..

[Ed]
Rage is up and throws Fantasia to the floor.. Godiva goes out after her and runs the head of Fantasia into the guardrailing.. and Fantasia is busted wide open now..

[Biff]
Big surprise there.. Fantasia drives an elbow to the gut of Rage and whips her into the ring apron.. Fantasia sets up and nails a suplex on the floor.. and Godiva holding her back now.. Fantasia up and rolls Godiva back into the ring..

[Ed]
Fantasia to the top rope and dives off with a splash.. one.. two.. kickout by Rage.. Fantasia with a whip? Godiva with a leap frog and come off with a clothesline and both are down..?

(The camera shot is high above Chicago, A OWA helicopter is following a lone silhouette as it walks down the street. The new thermal imaging camera is working and the camera continues to follow the silhouette. The figure stops and looks and gives the camera the …….Oops this is a family show…The next scene takes place inside a small pub in the middle of downtown Chicago. Elaine Bryant and Stacks Coltrain are sitting down for some libation)

[Elaine]
Stacks now you know better than to give those types of gestures to a television camera.. hahahha

[Stacks]
Look Elaine, I have been working very hard trying to keep The Crew a financially viable entity. I have to have some sort of fun. Hell it definitely is not happening in the OWA.

[Elaine]
Oh. I knew this was coming. So since you brought up the OWA, what do you plan on doing?

[Stacks]
Well Elaine, you know I really don’t talk much in this here fed, but I feel it’s time that The Crew reestablishes itself within this fed. I have instructed Monty to insure that this happens. Other than that I am just a lonely girl looking for a match or two to keep me busy.

[Elaine]
Lonely, Ha…Does the name Wesley Snipes ring a bell….

Not that kind of lonely. Bored is a better word. You know since I have been quite a lot of things have happened. It seems as if a whole lot of Queen B’s have come out of the wood work. Fantasia and Godiva come to mind. Answer me this, how the hell did Godiva Rage get a title shot in 2 weeks. My god. It takes The Crew months if not years to get any type of shot.

[Elaine]
Executioner has one this week…..

[Stacks]
I know, but I think that is why girls like me and Traci are attracted to a man like that. Hell he gives his all and goes out and challenges everyone, something most champions…heck most wrestlers should admire. I just want one match to start, Anyone anywhere. That’s all and besides I still have a few presents to give to some of these riff raffs in the league. Mr. Commish, please issue an open card challenge to all wrestlers in the OWA. That is the only way to get this done….Hell where are those damn beers…..HEY BAR KEEP WHERE THE HELL IS THE GUINESS? WE AIN’T WAITING ALLL DAMN NIGHT………
=============
[Elaine]
Stacks Coltrain is bored and looking for a little excitement.. She may yet get a shot at the WFW Women’s title during Endurance’s Evil Challenge..

[Shelly]
I’m Shelly Marks, along with Elaine Bryant and this is the OWA’s Gospel Truth. We’re counting the weeks until the OWA, in association with the WFW presents it’s first ever 2-day wrestling extravaganza known as Endurance’s Evil Challenge..

[Elaine]
I’m actually very excited about this event.. as not only will wrestlers from the OWA be taking a part, but we have had inquiries from several other federations as well.. and we should be seeing the talent lining up.

[Shelly]
We’re topping off tonight’s Gospel Truth with a OWA Title defense.. the first for Mr. America since winning the championship at Deck The Halls.. let’s hear from his challenger.. Executioner.
==========
[Executioner]
Well well, what a surprise this is… I would have never guessed that you would give me a title shot America..? I figured you would be ducking all the good talent in the OWA. Well for once you have proven me wrong, maybe your not the coward I thought you were America, I may even have to thank you for giving me this opportunity one day..?? Nahh… your still an arrogant S.O.B and I plan on taking full advantage of your arrogance in this match, I hope that you have fully recovered from your match with Traci Lane, cause you are gonna need your best to beat me…

Unless of course you are like the rest of the cowards in the OWA and have someone waiting to jump me from behind and interfere in the match so you can win..?? It does seem to be a favorite pastime around here lately, but you know what if that’s what it takes for most of these LOSERS around here to beat me then so be it. But I would prefer a 2 on 1 instead, at least that way I get the beating face to face. Good luck America, and lets keep this clean or I promise you , that you will pay..
==========
[Elaine]
Executioner ready for his shot at the OWA Title..

[Shelly]
We’re waiting with baited breath for next week’s Primal Rage.. as one more member of the OWA will enter the WFW tournament.. let’s hear from one of those competitors.. this is Mariko.
==========
[A flash from Mariko after a serious workout with two males wrestlers; sweating and breathless.]

“So I am to participate in this Royal Rumble with some “worthy opponents”. The only one is Traci Lane, a great champion, so we shall have a good match between us Femmes. Now let us see if these others are truly worthy opponents; Adam Sanchez, who is this person? What has he done to merit getting in the ring with me? And who is Ricky Hype, just a lot of noise who thinks he can wrestle; Shogun, a big disappointment to me, he will be the first to go; Pretty Boy Monty, I beat him badly last year and he still thinks he can beat me; Miguel Thunder, true thunder: all noise and no action! Godiva Rage is a very good wrestler, but she believes she’s the best; HAH, she isn’t close to being the best; She will soon see what the best will do to her! This is what Mariko will face in the Royal Rumble and will destroy! Sayonara.
==========
[Shelly]
Something seems to have sparked in Mariko..

[Elaine]
She sounds really overconfident.. and that’s not usually like her.. but if anyone can win this Royal Rumble, it’ll be Mariko. She has all the skills.. of course, that’s if she can get through fellow Femme and former OWA Champion, Traci Lane.

[Shelly]
Last week, Fantasia beat the odds and advanced to the WFW Women’s Tournament at Endurance’s Evil Challenge.. this woman has a ton of potential.. let’s go to ringside and see her in action.
==========
[Ring Announcer]
The following match is set for one fall.

["Loser" by Beck blasts over the PA system.]

[Ring Announcer]
Introducing first from Memphis, Tennessee weighing in at 216 pounds- The Yellowjacket!!

[A guy in a yellow mask makes his way to ringside.]

[Ed]
The Yellowjacket makes his debut tonight.

[Biff]
Who will he take on? Let’s find out.

[The music changes to "Come Out & Play" by Offspring.]

[Ring Announcer]
From Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.. weighing in at 176 pounds- Fantasia!

[Fantasia comes down to the ring wearing a long leather jacket.]

[Biff]
You know, when Fantasia first came into the federation, she looked really hot. But now, Gee she’s got as much scar tissue on that forehead as Abdullah the Butcher!

[Ed]
I’ll be sure to let her know you said that.

[Biff]
Oh God no, she’d beat the tar outta me!

[Ed]
Speaking of beatings, Yellowjacket just jumped Fantasia and floored her with a flying forearm. That move of course made famous by the Arribia Man, Tito Santana.

[Biff]
Yellowjacket covers the Abdullah wanna-be. Referee counts one, kickout. You gotta hook that leg, Yellowjacket!

[Ed]
Who are you, Mr. Fuji?

[Biff]
Well you can’t get much worse than him!

[Ed]
Fantasia decks Yellowjacket with an elbow to the head, another, and drops him with a lariat. Last week Fantasia won the big battle royal, Biff.

[Biff]
I know Ed but she did something even more amazing.

[Ed]
What’s that?

[Biff]
She went through an entire match without bleeding!

[Ed]
That may have been a first.

[Biff]
Meanwhile back in the ring, Fantasia gets Yellowjacket into the corner and nails him with several shots to the abdomen. Referee Roger DeFurio warning Fantasia now…no wait, he’s asking her out again!

[Ed]
Man these referees really need a social life. Fantasia goes for a double underhook suplex, but Yellowjacket reverses with a backdrop over the top rope!

[Biff]
Yellowjacket climbs outside and whips Fantasia into the guard rail. He does it again. Referee count is up to six. Yellowjacket back inside now.

[Ed]
But not for long as Yellowjacket dives out with a plancha!

[Biff]
I like that word plancha. It’s a fun word to say.

[Ed]
Gee thanks for sharing, Biff.

[Biff]
Anytime.

[Ed]
Yellowjacket taunting the fans, Fantasia comes up from behind and dropkicks him into the ringpost! Yellowjacket goes down in a heap.

[Biff]
How do you spell heap anyway?

[Ed]
I’m not sure.

[Biff]
Obviously.

[Ed]
Yellowjacket makes it to his feet and, yes, he’s been busted open.

[Biff]
You know the blood on his yellow mask kinds reminds me of when you have ketchup and mustard on your plate and it all kinda gets messed into one glob, ya know?

[Ed]
Gordon Solie you’re not. Fantasia tosses Yellowjacket back inside. She plants him with a DDT and goes up to the top rope.

[Biff]
Down she comes with a flying elbowdrop. She picks him up.

[Ed]
She’s going for the Fan-Plex.

[Biff]
You mean the Northern Light’s Suplex.

[Ed]
Whatever. She’s got him down!

[Biff]
Referee Roger DeFurio counts one, two, three! The female Tommy Dreamer wins another one.

[Ring Announcer]
In a time of 7:19 your winner- Fantasia!
=============
[Elaine]
Fantasia stepping in the mix during Endurance’s Evil Challenge with 15 of the best female wrestlers in the world to vie for a shot at the WFW Women’s World Title..

[Shelly]
A number of females in the OWA are not as impressed with the gender splitting that WFW has decided to do with their tournament?

[Elaine]
We have some harsh comments from “Mistress” Monica Brant..
=============
(”Mistress” Monica Brant sits in front of a lab-top computer in what looks like a corporate board room. She’s dressed in a conservative business suit and has a look of concentration on her face. She appears to have not noticed the camera. With stealth skills previously undemonstrated by OWA camerapeople, the view slowly shifts until it’s coming up from behind Monica. We get a quick glance at the Tetris blocks moving on the lab-top screen before Monica notices what’s going on.)

Monica:
HEY!! (She shuts the top of the computer.) Even pro-wrestlers deserve a little privacy. (The camera backs off, and she opens the computer again. Her Tetris game has shut down.) Damn, lucky for you I was loosing.

(She turns and faces the camera, still looking serious.)

Monica:
Just a few words for the folks at home, then I’ll be going back to work. First, let me address the new development in the WFW tournament. Not surprisingly, I’m ticked right off.

(She stands and starts to pace, speaking as she goes.)

Monica:
The fact that we’ve let the WFW dictate terms to us does not make me happy. True, the WFW championships are their belts. They can make whatever decisions they want. But, Endurance Evil Challenge is a OWA event, always has been. To change its format, to split the genders in a mixed gender fed, is knuckling under. I have fought, the Femmes have fought, to gain respect here for years. And now, that’s all been undermined.

I will not be taking part in the EEC tournament because I was eliminated from the battle royal last week. Fine, I can’t change that. But let me say this. Whoever does win that WFW women’s belt, better damned well treat it with pride. Because there’s a whole lot of women here, myself included, that’ll be on your case if it turns into a token belt. That belt will be a prize to be fought for, mark my words.

(Monica stops, lets out a breath, and sits back down.)

Monica:
Now that that’s over, let’s look at the homefront. It seems I’m the number 1 contender to the OWA championship. You know what that means, don’t you, America? It means we get to dance again in the ring, this time for a lot more than bragging rights. (She smiles, and an evil glint appears in her eye.) You may be friends with Traci, big guy, but you are not now nor ever been nor ever will be a friend of mine. So better wear some thick tights, boy. You’re about to get a butt whooping the likes of which you’ve never had before.

(Monica looks down at herself for a moment.)

That belt would go perfect with this outfit, don’t you agree, America?

(In one sudden movement, Monica stands and picks up her computer.)

Monica:
That’s it for now, kiddies. Enjoy the rest of the show.
==========
[Shelly]
Monica Brant is going after Mr. America and his OWA Title at Endurance’s Evil Challenge..

[Elaine]
I’d probably compare Brant to WCW’s Lex Luger. Never quite reaching the pinnacle that she more than deserves.. it’s always just out of reach.

[Shelly]
She’ll get her chance at EEC.. let’s hear from the OWA Champion.. Mr. America..
===========
[Mr. America is back in the locker room area.]

[America]
I don’t have a lot to say today so be thankful for that.

[Mr. America smirks.]

[America]
It’s your turn Executioner. It’s time to see if you still have what it takes that made you the champion when I first stepped foot into the OWA. You gave me attention, and I’m returning the favor. After your swept under the rug, we’ll find out who has a title shot next week.

[the screen fades out.]
===========
[Elaine]
Mr. America is throwing out title shots like they’re candy.. rumor has it he’ll be at Primal Rage next week and will be granting someone a title shot..

[Shelly]
That’ll be very interesting indeed? tossing out shots like that and America is soon to be the ex-OWA Champion..

[Elaine]
He’s a very confident individual.. and so far, he’s backed up all of his words.. Let’s hear from someone who’ll be competing in next week’s Royal Rumble.. here’s Pretty Boy Monty..
============
(At The Crew’s mansion Pretty Boy Monty is relaxing in front of a large fire and sipping on a nice glass of fine brandy. Dressed in a very expensive silk robe Monty waves the OWA camera crew in….)

[Monty]
I know, I know everyone is a little surprised to hear from the Pretty One two weeks in a row. I told you I was going to be involve myself a little bit more(Walking towards the trophy room)

As you can see this is the best room in the house. Here is where we keep all of the awards and trophy’s won by The Crew. Funny thing is even with all of these awards and accolades we as an organization are not satisfied with what we have. I have been doing some research and I have noticed that the current OWA rankings are a joke. In the top ten you have Taleis, Davey Scott, Asian Invasion and Ricky Hype. Oh and lets not mention the reigning TV champ Godiva Rage. It makes you wonder if there is a fix on in the league. Lets hear them whine and talk about their records. Each one has been padded against jobbers and when they do wrestle a quality opponent they lose.

(The camera pans the room…5 World Championship Belts, 4 TV title belts, 2 Intercontinental Belts, 1 trio tag belts, Numerous PPV trophies, citizenship awards, 3 Golden Globe awards, 1 Oscar, 6 People’s Choice awards, 2 Grammy awards etc…..)

As you can see The Crew does have the ability to judge those mentioned earlier. Only one other Stable in the History of this Fed can stand up against our credentials. All the others are a joke. What does it take to get a match signed around here. I have issued an open contract no one responds. It must be true that people are “running” from this organization. Not matter time will tell.

One other issue I must address before the camera crew leaves. “Pretty Boy” Johnny Stallion, let me explain something to you. There is only one Pretty Boy in this here fed, (Points to a wall with numerous photo’s) You see that,(Pictures of Monty with various world leaders, celebs, other wrestlers) That is the Pretty One. Those people took pictures with me, not you. They wanted what I have, some good looks. Take it from me chump Drop the moniker before you get hurt. That little feud between the two enforcers is nothing compared to what will happen to you. Oh yeah. Congrats Mr. America, I knew you had it in you. But watch out Traci is a mean somebody when you got the belt.

(fade to black)
==========
[Shelly]
Looks like the Crew is back in form.. but can they regain the notoriety that they once held? Only time will tell.. the WFW Men’s title would be a nice push for Monty and the Crew if one of them were to take it..

[Elaine]
Of course, with the likes or Mariko and Traci Lane in the Royal Rumble.. it’ll be an awfully hard task. I can imagine that Traci Lane will want to get her hands back on Mr. America.. friends or not.. that title was wrongfully handed to Mr. America due to actions from Danny Bouchard.

[Shelly]
Well.. next week, Monica Brant gets her hands on Danny Bouchard.. both stars are on the rise.. it’ll be in interesting contest at Primal Rage. Also slated for next week’s Primal Rage, Asian Invasion against a mystery opponent.. and Ricky Hype gets his rematch for the OWA TV Title, in a strap match against champion, Godiva Rage. Let’s hear from the OWA’s ‘Golden Pair’.
===========
[The scene opens to show Asian Invasion lounging poolside in a plush mountain resort. The camera goes through several screens of him playing golf, working out, and dancing with the Spice Girls on top of his "The Way It Is" bus. It then cuts to Asian and Ricky the "SHOW" Hype, inside the bus.]

[Asian Invasion]
Well hello and welcome again to The Way It Is. I’m here today with our new co-host, Ricky “The Show” Hype, here to bring the truth in OWA Wrestling. Ricky, now that we are the new HOT thing in the OWA, don’t you think that it’s about time that we take care of some of the dirty trash here in the league.

[Ricky Hype]
There’s gonna be a lot of cleaning up soon Asian! I especially can’t wait to see Traci Lane, or Monica Brant show Danny Bouchard what a real fight is like. Yeah, we won’t have to worry about the censors being over worked after those babes get a hold of him! *ha ha* And trash? That’s to good for some of these so-called wrestlers. At least trash has some color, and sometimes even something flashy hidden in it. What we need in the OWA is a veterinarian, cause most of these so-called wrestlers are about as exciting as a fur ball from my cat! *ha ha ha*

[Asian Invasion]
Mr. America, OWA World Chump, and former follower of Asian Invasion. America, when I had you give up your TV Title shot, so that I could win the title, how did that feel, being MY side-kick and all??? I was just wondering. Well, now I’ve found someone to replace your sorry tag along ass America. There’s one major advantage of having Ricky Hype with me too, he’s not a follower like you are, he’s a real wrestler America.

Now, onto God-Ugly. What kind of champion is this foreign slop??? After that match with Ricky on Primal Rage, she has a lot of explaining to do, of course since no one can understand a damn word she says, she can’t really do ANY explaining either.

[Ricky Hype]
She said a mouthful Asian. She said she’s afraid to take on the “SHOW”. She knows her belt is mine for the taking, if and when she ever really shows up to wrestle. Yep, soon as I relieve the belt from her the TV ratings will sky rocket!! And, THAT’S! the way it is!!!

[Asian Invasion]
And remember, just because I’m not at ringside, doesn’t mean that I’m not in the arena. Try of those cheap moves again out there Ugly, and I’ll be in that ring so fast, you’ll wish that you were back in the old country.

[Ricky Hype]
That’s right! And after I take care of God-awful, Asian and I will be looking for that veterinarian so we can tack care of the rest of the OWA fur balls!

[Ricky Hype and Asian Invasion)
And that's The Way It Is!!
==============
[Elaine]
Ricky Hype confident that he’ll be walking out of Primal Rage next week as the OWA TV Champion.. and don’t forget he’ll be part of that big Battle Royal as well.. so he would also be walking out as one of the contenders for the WFW Men’s World Title.

[Shelly]
He’s got a lot of enemies in that contest.. Executioner, Monty and Shogun are all going to be gunning for him..

[Elaine]
It’s time for our feature match this week on the Gospel Truth.. let’s go down to ringside..
==============
[The arena lights dim as Motor City Madhouse by Ted Nugent blares over the arena p.a., as the lights start to return to normal The Executioner steps through the curtains and walks towards the ring, slapping hands with the fans.. when he suddenly drops and covers his head with his arms.. he looks back nervously.. and walks backwards the rest of the way to the ring?]

[Ed]
Welcome back to ringside.. Executioner acting a little paranoid as of late?

[Biff]
You can hardly blame the guy.. he’s been cheap-shotted more than his share as of late..

[The opening guitar rift from "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC rips through the air as a cheer from the crowd rises in the arena. The drums kick in as the music fills the air in the arena. Mr. America steps through the curtain and heads down towards ringside.. ]

[Ed]
Here comes the new OWA Champion.. this is his first title defense since winning the title at Deck The Halls..

[Biff]
He should be sharing that title with Danny Bouchard.. they can sit and have a beer and stare at their title..

[Ed]
Executioner taking the far side of the ring.. he seems to want to keep his back away from the entrance to ringside. There’s a lock up.. Executioner pushes America into the ropes.. America with a shoulderblock and Executioner goes down..

[Biff]
Executioner to his feet.. they lock up again.. arm drag by Executioner.. and a clothesline.. and another by Executioner.. he looks to the curtain cautiously.. He goes for the pin, but referee doesn’t even get to count as America kicks out.

[Ed]
Executioner off the ropes, America with a hotshot.. dragon suplex by the Champion.. one.. two.. kickout by Executioner.. America off the ropes? tries for a running forearm smash, but Executioner ducks and nails him with a German suplex..

[Biff]
Northern Lights suplex by Executioner.. one.. two.. kickout by America.. Executioner off the ropes, by Mr. America hiptosses him out of the ring.. Executioner climbs back into the ring, but America nails him with a kick..

[Ed]
America with a clawhold, but Executioner right on the ropes.. referee calls for the break.. Executioner drives a shoulder to the midsection of America.. and then nails a DDT!

[Biff]
Executioner applies the Cross Face Chicken Wing!! He’s got it locked in.. Mr. America is reaching for the ropes.. can he make it?. they are /right/ there.. and finally he grabs the bottom rope and the referee calls for the break..

[Ed]
Executioner’s not too happy about that.. he pulls up America.. goes for a scoop slam.. no! Small package by Mr. America.. one.. two.. three!!! He’s got it!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 11:20.. and STILL OWA Champion.. Mr. America!

[Ed]
America takes his title and heads up the aisle.. we’re completely out of time for this Gospel Truth.. we’ll be back next week for a LIVE Primal Rage! For the whole OWA Crew.. we’ll see you next week.

(It’s backstage after Deck the Halls; a few grips and arena personnel wander back and forth down the corridor, carrying cables, tools, and similar equipment.? With the sound of a wrecking ball, the door to the infirmary slams open, and out lunges Traci Lane, a slightly bloody bandage encircling her head.? A pair of white-smocked attendants try to restrain her by her arms, but she slings them flying backwards.)

[Traci]
BOUCHARD!!!? WHERE’S BOUCHARD?!?

(She staggers out into the corridor, looking left and right, then leans weakly against the wall, her hand on her head.? Noticing the camera, she turns and brings her face very close to it.)

[Traci]
Bouchard…you disgusting, vomitous little pseudo-French worm…you were just fine when you knew your place, acting the part of the OWA’s comic relief.? But getting involved in MY match…costing me MY title…(She shakes her head, and dons a dangerous smile.)…I don’t care if you were drunk.? I don’t care if you were out of your mind.? None of it matters.? All that matters is that I’m going to grab that [CENSORED] chair you HIT me with and [CENSORED] RAM it straight where the [CENSORED] sun doesn’t [CENSORED] shine, you [CENSORED] BOURGEOIS LITTLE [CENSORED]!!!? YOUR [CENSORD] ASS IS MINE!!!

(She slams her forehead into the camera, and the picture dissolves into snow….)
– ———–
[The? Primal Rage opening sequence plays, showing a couple of dinosaurs in wrestling tights going at it.. as the shot pans out, we see them in the ring, and a large gathering of cavemen in the ?audience?.? The Shot continues to pan until the golden red sky it all we see and the stone lettering "Primal Rage" appears.? The sequence shatters as we are taken to a packed house with fireworks and pyrotechnics.]

[Ed]
Happy New Year and welcome to Primal Rage.? We?re hot on the heels of an incredible pay per view.. and Deck The Halls is history.. we come in with a new champion and a lot of interesting developments.? Comments from Traci Lane right at the top of the show.. she is..

[Biff]
PISSED!? Of course, you can?t blame Danny Bouchard if?

[Ed]
What?s going on here? Shelly Marks is in the ring..

[Shelly]
?At this time, I’d like to welcome… well… I’d like to… here’s Danny Bouchard.

(The instrumental O Canada kicks in, and Danny Bouchard strolls casually down to the ring, a six-pack of beer under his arm.? The boos erupt.? He stops halfway down to trade insults with a heavyset middle-aged woman.? Large parts of the conversation are bleeped out before Danny turns away disgustedly and heads into the ring.)

[Bouchard]
?Eh, I tell ya what, they’s some damn [CENSORED] ugly people out there tonight.? What, someone raid the dog pound?

[Shelly]
?Danny… first of all, I hardly think this is the time or place for you to be carrying around and drinking beer.

[Bouchard]
?Eh, I don’t trust none of them guys backstage.? Them [CENSORED] women might try and get at it… you never know ’round here.

(Danny opens a beer.? There is a slight cheer in the crowd, the first since Danny came out.)

[Shelly]
?Well, on the topic of beer… it seems that although you were pretty busy at Deck the Halls, you had time for quite a few beers.? In fact, your judgement seemed to be impaired, because you decided to go out during the Western States title match between Traci Lane and Mr. America.? And then you decided to interfere in that match, but if we look at the footage…

(Footage is run of Danny hitting Traci Lane…)

[Shelly]
… it would appear you were drunk, and missed your intended target–

[Bouchard]
?Hey!? I tell you one thing, I’m no [CENSORED] drunk!? If there was one thing the Bouchard family was known for before I came along, it was a high tolerance for alcohol.? I was just fine.? If I hit Traci Lane, i’s because I MEANT to hit Traci Lane, you got that?

[Shelly]
?But why would you want to hit Traci Lane?

[Bouchard]
?Eh, you know… she was beatin’ up Mr. America pretty [CENSORED] bad there, you know?? I didn’t want him beat up so much he’d have to retire or nothin’, you know?

[Shelly]
?I don’t understand, Mr. Bouchard.? Why…

[Bouchard]
?Eh, _I_ wanna be the one that beats Mr. America into a bloody pathetic pulp, you know?

[Shelly]
? So, you’re target IS Mr. America?? I have to say, Danny, that your actions as of late have been confusing.? You return to action by verbally assaulting Traci Lane, then you attack Traci Lane, and now you say you did it so she wouldn’t hurt Mr. America, who was your target all along?? Some kind of throw-off?? Do you assume Mr. America would be an easier opponent to defeat than Traci Lane?

(Danny pauses to think.? He tosses the beer can, which he has been emptying during the interview, behind him into the crowd.? Some garbage is beginning to fly.)

[Bouchard]
?Uh… yeah.? Yeah, damn straight!? I tell you what, Danny Bouchard knows what the [CENSORED] he’s doing!? We all know Traci Lane deserved the belt about as much as my grandmother, so, uh, I did everyone a favour and got the belt away from her the first chance I could, and, uh… eh, America!? You don’t need that belt either, you know?? I tell you what, if there’s one thing I hate more than a [CENSORED] anglophone, it’s a [CENSORED] anglophone with his country in his name!

(An empty beer cup hits Danny.)

[Bouchard]
?HEY!? [CENSORED]!? You should have some of these [CENSORED]s thrown out, you know?? America, I showed everyone what I can do when I don’t give half a damn and I ain’t had more than a beer at Deck The Halls when I blew off that stupid [CENSORED] Fantasia.? It took everything you had against that no-talent Traci Lane, and you needed ME to win the title!? I see you weren’t to hasty to take a tainted win, eh?? HAHAHA!? I tell you what, Mr. America, I give you some time to hang around with your belt, and see if you can make some friends with that or something.? But you know what, I’m gonna be ’round soon, and tonight I think I’m gonna give you a taste of what you’re gonna get when I decide it’s my turn to get the belt, you know?? HAHAHA!? I’m out of here!

(Danny spins around, slides out of the ring, and opens another beer as he walks back to the locker rooms, yelling at fans as he goes.? Shelly is left to dodge the occasional piece of garbage that went into the ring instead of following Danny.)

[Shelly]
?Uh, ladies and gentlemen… Danny Bouchard… ick…

[Ed]
You know.. I have to think that Danny Bouchard had no idea what he was doing out there..

[Biff]
I bet that?s just what he wants you to think..

[Ed]
We have more post-PPV comments to get out of the way before we head to ringside, so let?s get those out of the way.? We?ll be right back.
==============
(At an all star volleyball tournament, The Crew is about to finish up with the latest opponents to face them a team of Dallas Cowboy players.)

[Monty]
Alright now folks lets put this away.? Hey Emmitt I can see why you folks are home for the playoffs.? Hahahahaha

[Shogun]
Hahahahhaha,? Yeah look here, You know I?m about to get the ball again,? 15 kills and counting,? Hey Leon here comes another one.

(The Cowboys and The Crew laugh as Executioner serves,)

[Announcer]
Well folks here we are, game point.? We have the serve by Executioner,? We can see that he FINALLY gave up his jump serve. It’s bumped by Darren Woodson,? it up in the air, not a good pass at all, I think he should stick with defense.? Its run down by Stepfret Williams who manages to get a perfect set,? Its up and…….SPIKED…..by Leon Lett, Stacks Coltrain with a perfect dig,? Set by Monty towards Shogun, This is it folks game point and on to the Championship to meet the Dallas Cheerleaders,? Shogun he’s up, his arm is cocked,? Lett and Coakley with the block, but its…its a…..dink,? Crew Wins, Crew wins… (The Crew is up and about celebrating the Cowboys laugh, its typical of the year they have had.? The teams shake hands and hugs all around.? Monty is walking towards his fans when a camera crew stops him)

[Monty]
(laughing and signing autographs..)? Well, well a camera crew its amazing…Probably wondering what I think about the most recent PPV.? Well I’ll tell you something.? Ricky Hype what a damn joke.? Comes into the league beats up on a few jobbers and all of a sudden thinks he is the toast of the league.? Hell I have more respect for Danny Bouchard, someone who has accomplished something in this league, than I do for some punk like Danny.? Who has he beat.? Davey Scott.? Please.? Both of these jokes can’t carry Trey Vibe’s jock strap.? Ooooh Ricky,? hype,? Believe me you will pay for what you have done to a Member of the Crew.? We have rid this federation of much trash.? The Evil Empire, The Plague, MP Inc, Chaos, Trey Vibe, The Elite, Shocker, and so forth.? Son you are f[beep]g with the big boys now.? Oh I have been quite as of late.? But that is going to end.? I want what is mine, The World Championship Belt.? So I will start my climb now,? Miguel Thunder you are above me in the rankings I guess we finally get to dance,? This challenge is for you.? Little Ricky soon, very soon(turns and begins signing so more autographs).

[Shogun]
(Grabs the camera and faces it towards himself)? Asian and Ricky Hype.?? Lets see who laughs last,? There was no honor in what you did, Asian I do not no why nor have I figured out why you consistently want to involve yourself with Crew business, you obviously have not learned you lesson yet.?? But That is ok.? You will.(Pushes the camera away and joins the autograph session)
=========
[back stage in the locker room Ricky the "SHOW" Hype is relaxing in a big lazy-boy and watching Micheal Flatley in Riverdance]

[Ricky Hype]
Man, I dig the Flat man!? He doesn’t go for that laid back old fashioned Irish dancing.? See how he puts his own signature on the moves.? Man, that’s awesome! He just keeps going and going, sorta like the Energizer Bunny? *lol*

[Asian Invasion, walking in]
The Energizer?? That’s right Ricky, you’re gonna have to keep going after that God-awful Rage chick!? I know man!? She can’t keep going like you can. The “SHOW” goes on!

[Ricky Hype]
Your right Asian!? No way she can handle the Hype!? I can feel the Hyper Drive warming up right now!? And you know what Asian?? I’ve got something else on my side.

[Asian Invasion]
What’s that Rick?

[Ricky Hype, spinning an tossing Asian the Fate Pipe] I got you babe!

[scene fades to enormous laughter]
=========
(The view opens on a back alley, lined with crates and strewn with bottles and papers.? A cat picks its way through the refuse at the top of a trash can near a closed door.? The animal perks up and darts away at the sound of footsteps, coming from around a corner; walking into view is a trio of men, clad in jeans, vests, leather, chains, and other gang accouterment.? They stride down the alley, toward the viewer, until stopping about twenty feet distant.? Moments later, A woman moves from behind the camera to the foreground.? She’s clad in a black tank top and matching jeans, with knee- high cycle boots and fingerless gloves.? Her thick blonde hair cascades down over her muscular shoulders.)

[Rachel Ryan]
You idiots ready?

[Ace]
Whaddaya mean?? You said there was three of ya!

[Scar]
Yeah.? Where’s your posse?

[Rachel]
I’m the posse.

[8-Ball]
Yeah, right.? More like the p*ssy.? (They laugh.)

[Rachel]
Is that so?? (She smiles, and puts her hands on her hips.)? If that’s the case, then I guess you boy?s like to come get you some.

[Ace]
I’m down with that.?

(They smirk and start toward her, hands extended.? Ace lunges, and Rachel knees him in the gut on the way by, bowling him over and sending him down.? She ducks a punch from 8-Ball, then clubs him in the back of the head.? Scar grabs her from behind, pinning her arms to her sides, but she easily breaks free, slides her arm under his, and hiptosses him down.)

[Rachel]
Come on, losers!? That the best you got?

(Angry, the men launch to their feet and charge.? Scar and 8-Ball wade in, managing to secure her arms and pin her against the wall, and Ace arrives to land a few shots to her midsection.? He rears back for another when her booted foot lashes up and catches him under the jaw, sending him flying backwards.? She rips her arms down and out of their grasp, yanks their heads in close, and drops to deliver a stunner to both of them.? She grabs 8-Ball, hoists him overhead, then tosses him down on Scar.? The men lay motionless, and she goes to Ace, pulling him up by his collar.)

[Rachel]
Come on, big boy!? Let’s see whatcha got!

(Ace lands his big right fist to her jaw, backing her up, then follows it up with a left hook.? She ducks the next blow, then starts hitting him with precise jabs to the face and body, peppering him with short, hard strikes that pin him to the wall.? Blood flies from his mouth as his head snaps back and forth.? She stops as he crumples to his knees, all but unconscious.? Shaking the pain from her knuckles, she says,)

[Rachel]
Nice tussle, boys.? Better than what I usually get, anyway.? (She pulls a business card from her pocket, and tosses it to his feet.)? Gimme a ring sometime.? We’ll go for brews or somethin’.

(Rachel turns and walks up to the camera.)

[Rachel]
Sanchez, I gotta hand it to ya.? You gave me one helluva fight.? I didn’t think you had it in ya, but I was wrong.? That’s great!? There ain’t a thing I like better than a good scrap, and you gave me that in spades.? I’m lookin’ forward to mixin’ it up again, whenever you got the guts.

But I’ve had an idea.? It may be crazy, but maybe there’s room for two Enforcers in the OWA.? Maybe there’s even some sense in joinin’ up.? I figure if I’ve got somebody as tough as me taggin’ up, then there’s all kinda trouble ta get into — and I *like* trouble.? So think about it, Hoss, and gimme a ring sometime.

(She shakes out the fingers of her left fist, and walks away as the view fades….) =========== {A cameraman walks down the hallway of locker rooms, following the sound of laughing and cheering. The camera stops, and faces the door, which reads ‘TRINITY’ on it. A hand knocks on the door, and it is opened by Mortis.}

Mortis: “Hey guys! Look! New cameramen!”

Pagan: “Obviously they haven?t seen how The Living Dead handle cameramen. Bring it in.”

{The camera moves inside, showing a party going on.}

Virgo: “Haha! Trinity did it! We told you all that we would do it, and we did it! Traci Lane…eliminated. The Giant….eliminated! Salyards…eliminated! Mr America….”

Trinity: “Eliminated!”

Sandman: “I gotta hand it to you, Rigor. You sure pulled through.”

Rigor: “Yeah, well, it takes more then 5 on 5 to keep the Living Dead down.”

Virgo: “Heh, I loved the fact Taleis lasted a whole…what? 25 seconds?”

Pagan: “Yeah. But you know what they are all going to say about the match, don?t you?”

Mortis: “And we care….because? Trinity always works on chaos. Chaos means you never know what will happen, and that’s exactly what we proved. Did you see the look on America’s face when Johnny Stallion showed up?”

Virgo: “Priceless! We should take this opportunity to thank Mr Stallion for his part in all this. It was very nice work on your part.”

Sandman: “Ok, so what now?”

Virgo: “Now, you guys go back to the SWF with Equalizer, and we finish our reign of terror there. Me, I stay here and take care of some unfinished business.”

Pagan: “Don’t you have unfinished business back home?”

Virgo: “Yeah. But here, I have to deal with a handful of people.”

Mortis: “Are they on The List?”

Virgo: “For this fed, yes. Let’s see….we got Davey Scott up there, we got The Show Ricky Hype up there….and I ain?t quite done with The Black Widow just yet.”

Mortis: “Man, you sure know how to pick ‘em. But you know….that match really made me….hungry.”

{Rigor and Mortis grin, turning to look at the cameraman.}

Rigor: “Yeah….me too…..and it looks like this fed is supplying the food for our party….”

Virgo: “Careful guys, I don?t think the OWA looks too kindly on those who eat cameramen.”

Rigor: “There wont be any evidence…will there, Mortis?”

Mortis: “No way….”

{The two advance on the camera, and the screen suddenly fades to static as a scream is heard from the cameraman.} =========== [Fade in. We see Fantasia in a blood bank. Various people are also giving blood.]

[Fantasia]
Considering the last few matches I’ve had. I thought I’d get some of my own blood ready for future use. Unlike Kramer, though, I won’t put it in my car (smiles) Danny, Danny, Danny. You got your hand raised at Deck The Halls, but I wouldn’t call you the winner. I battled you tooth and nail, and considering the height and weight difference between us, you should be ashamed. Ashamed that it took you so long to beat me! If you were really as good as you say you are then it would have been nothing to beat me, but it wasn’t…was it Danny? Which reminds me, my dress is still stained with your blood. You don’t know how much it sickens me to look into my closet and? see your blood there. It only makes me madder. Madder, and more determined to beat the hell out of you all over again. How ’bout it Danny, feel like a rematch?
===========
[Miguel Thunder is in a seat at the Arena, watching a house show. The camera man stumbles towards Miguel, occasionally tripping over Cokes.]

Miguel: What is it now…?

Camera: You forgot?

Miguel: Oh!… Oh yeah… I have to talk to the fans.

<clears throat dramatically>

First off, I’m angry at my loss in the PPV, because I had hope that I was an improved wrestler. I had trained for months, hoping that the return of what was OWA would be highlighted by my talent, but I haven’t won ONCE. I want 1998 to be my year.
============
[Ed]
We?re back in the arena.. ready to start with our opening match..? What?s this now?

["Highway to Hell" by AC/DC plays as Mr. America walks out from between the curtains.? He has on regular street clothes and the OWA title is nowhere to be seen on him.? He walks to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd and climbs in.? The ring announcer hands him the mic as the music dies.]

[America]
So, here’s the new OWA champion.? It was one hell of a match, but I said I would walk out the champion and I did.? Before I get to that though, let me talk about Trinity and Virgo.? Virgo, you all had a plan alright and it worked fairly well.? Does it bother me that my team ended up on the losing end of the whole thing?? Not really Virgo because time and time again you’ve proven a few things to us all.? Take a look at Trinity, they’re still in the SWF scrub league and that says it all right there.? Maybe they’ll show up here, but you’ll learn something soon enough Virgo.? When I was in the SWF I was the man there and I’m the man here.? Face it Virgo, you’re always gonna be a second tier throwback when we’re compared.

[Mr. America smiles.]

[America]
So this leaves the whole title match with me and Trac.? People are wondering that since me and Trac are friends, how was I able to take the pin after a cheap-shot by Bouchard?? You see, that’s the good thing about friendship. Trac accepts me for me and not what I do.? She doesn’t agree with the way I won the title, but she knew that I was coming in with the mindset to win the title.? That’s why there’s no hard feelings, but if I’m wrong and Traci has a bit of a vocal opinion on the matter.? She knows I won’t duck her at all.? Now, onto who I defend against first.? When I was the TV champ, I told everyone that I’d go out and find my challengers and you’re damn right I’m going to do it now.? I’ll leave this as food for thought.

[Mr. America turns to the camera.]

[America]
Executioner, I’ll see you at Gospel Truth next week as my opponent for the OWA title.? Just bring yourself and hope to God you’re ready.

[Mr. America drops the mic, exits the ring, and heads back up the aisle.]

[Ed]
I tell you, Deck the Halls caused shock-waves to run throughout the OWA.. strong words from Mr. America and he?s handing out the title shots like they?re candy..

[Biff]
I have to say that I told you so.. when I predicted that Mr. America would be the new OWA Champion.? That was me.? Yup.

[Ed]
Right.? Let?s go down to ringside.

[Announcer]
This match is a battle royal with special stipulations.? Normal battle royal rules apply.. however, the winner of the match will be the first person to climb the pole and retrieve the key that?s hanging from the top.? Here are your participants:

(Lights go out in the arena, followed by spotlights circling the arena until they end up on Asian Invasion, standing at the entrance way with a microphone in one hand, and the fate pipe in the other.)

[Asian Invasion]
So I was wrong.? That damn import chick beat me, I couldn’t win back MY TV Title.? Well, that’s the sport of wrestling.? You win some, you lose some.? Then that dirty excuse for an Asian Invasion wannabe, Mrs. America, someone wins the World Title???? America, you better watch your back, we’ve got a history my friend, and now I’ve got the assistance of my new number one man Ricky Hype.? That wouldn’t last long America, lack of skills can catch up with a guy pretty quick, and your times almost up.? Godiva Lucky, you may have escaped from me at Deck The Halls, but now you’ve got The Show to take care of, that title’s coming back to The Way It Is one way or another.

A six-pack ring with a solitary can of Molson Canadian hangs at the end of the flagpole.? He hastens his stroll to the ring, barely bothering to toss the occasional insult at the fans, dodging garbage.?

He walks on down to the ring and stops partway, before opening his jacket to reveal a 'TRINITY' T-shirt. He hops into the ring, and levels the first person near him, which is Taleis and the fight breaks out?]

[Ed]
Looks like Virgo got this one under way..

[Biff]
He laid a right cross right to the jaw of? Taleis who fell like a rock.? Mr. America is all over Virgo right now, and Johnny Stallion nails him from behind as Virgo and Stallion begin to double team the new champion.?

This year will be something special as we not only will have one tournament, but two.? The WFW has decided to split their world titles into two categories.? The WFW Men?s World Title and the WFW Women?s World Title.? Therefore for the first time in OWA history, a PPV will go not only one day.. but two days.?? Let?s get to the major announcements:

First.. OWA has signed a Western States Championship match between current champion Mr. America and number one contender Monica Brant.?

In another incredible signing.. it?ll be Traci Lane taking on Danny Bouchard.? And you know that after Deck The Halls, Lane wants a big piece of Bouchard.?

Let?s talk about the WFW tournaments.? They?ll be using Endurance?s Evil Challenge rules. This tournament is basically a quadathalon in testing wrestling skills.

16 competitors will be selected.

Round 1: Tag Team Skills
Round 1 tests the wrestler’s tag team abilities.? They will be randomly paired, via a draw, with a tag team partner.? Only teams winning in the first round will advance to the second round.

Round 2: Singles Skills
In Round 2, the winners of round 1 will then face their tag team partner from Round 1.? Only 4 wrestlers will advance to the next round.

Round 3: Free For All Skills
The four wrestlers advancing to this round will meet in a four way dance.? Once there are only two wrestlers remaining, this match will be stopped and the two will be sent to the finals.

Finals: Endurance.
The final two competitors will then face each other in a Texas Death Match.? The winner will be the competitor who gets 3 consecutive falls over their opponent.? The winner of this contest will be crowned the first WFW World Champion.

============
[Ed]
Incredible news.. for the first time in our history, a PPV will span two days.? Two tournament, instead of one.

[Biff]
Well.. you know the other male federations were scared of having their top stars losing to our top female competitors.

[Ed]
Shutup Biff.. I?m glad you?re not our ambassador of good will to the other federations, we may as well be in Siberia.

[Biff]

Deck The Halls 1997

Traci Lane vs. Mr. America

[Ed]
Welcome to “Deck The Halls”. After last night?s spectacular awards ceremony, we get to see the OWA where they are at their best.. in the ring. I?m Ed Bagel and with me is my co-host Biff Franklin.

[Biff]
Let me tell ya something.. Traci Lane walked off with the most awards last night, but tonight, she?s got her work cut out for her as she takes on Mr. America. This guy is destined to be the champion here tonight. I can feel a title change.

[Ed]
That?s not the only title on the line.. Godiva Rage tangles with Asian Invasion for the Western States TV Championship.

[Biff]
I like this Godiva Rage, but I have my doubts if she can keep Asian Invasion from taking back the TV Title.

[Ed]
Plus, the big 5 on 5 tag team elimination matchup, pitting Virgo and Trinity against Team America.

[Biff]
Where they put this match will tell the outcome. I don?t think Mr. America cares about this match.. I think all he cares about is the Western States Championship and if he has to take out Traci Lane in the 5 on 5, then so be it.

[Ed]
And let?s not forget the Steel Cage matchup.. with stipulations in effect.. Davey Scott taking on Taleis. If Scott loses, he is suspended for 30 days.. if Taleis loses, then Scott gets to whip him with a strap 10 times.

[Biff]
This one is a hard one to call.. But I think Scott has more to lose in this one.. so see him as doing whatever it takes to get the win.

[Ed]
We?ve been informed that after last night?s fiasco at the awards ceremony.. a match has been signed for today, that pits Danny Bouchard against Fantasia in a ?falls-count-anywhere? match. However, to get things started.. let?s go down to ringside.. for the BIG BATTLE ROYAL!

[Ring Announcer]
Ladies and Gentlemen of Portland Oregon.. welcome to “DECK THE HALLS”! Your first contest is a battle royal! 17 wrestlers will start out in the ring, and the object is to throw your opponent out over the top rope and to the floor. Here are your competitors, coming down the aisle now..

Bouchard with a facerake and a DDT! Bouchard turns to the crowd and Fantasia is up and nails him from behind with a clothesline.. and he?s outta there!!!

[Ring Announcer]
Danny Bouchard has been eliminated.

[Biff]

============
[Voice Over]
Who is.. the ultimate wrestler?!?

[Pictures of Mr. America, Traci Lane, Danny Bouchard, Taleis, Virgo flash across the screen.]

[Voice Over]
A tag team specialist?

[Pictures of Godiva Rage, Asian Invasion, Ricky Hype, Miguel Thunder, Pretty Boy Monty flash across the screen]

[Voice Over]
Or a the hottest single?s wrestler around?

[Pictures of Consuelo Salyards, Shiva, Fantasia, Adam Sanchez, Davey Scott flash across the screen]

[Voice Over]
Take punishment from all sides?

[Pictures of Monica Brant, Rachel Ryan, Shogun, Executioner, Stacks Coltrain flash across the screen]

[Voice Over]
Or a model of endurance?

[More clips are shown of wrestler?s taking hit after hit after hit..]

[Voice Over]
The ultimate wrestler is in fact? all of the above? On February 22, 1998.. the world will find out who the ultimate wrestler is.. as 16 of today?s rising stars are put to the test as they try to defeat?

Endurance?s Evil Challenge?. Live on PPV.
==============
[Ed]
And we already know that Consuelo Salyards is one of 16 competitors to vie to become the first WFW World Champion during Endurance?s Evil Challenge.

[Biff]
Now this is going to be limited to wrestlers in the OWA, right?

[Ed]
Actually.. no. Invitations will be sent out to other federations.. whether they accept the challenge or not is complete up to them. We understand that the OWA Commissioner has been sweating over who will represent the OWA in this tournament.. we know that Salyards will be one. I?ve also been told that the Commish will make some sort of statement in regards to this, late on during this card.

[Biff]
Well.. can?t wait to hear what he has to say about all of this..

[Ed]
Let?s go down to ringside.

["Sweet Dreams" plays on the pa system

[Announcer]
This match is set for one fall. First.. coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 165 pounds.. Hailing from Newcastle, England here is Shiva!

[Shiva walks down the aisle to boos from the crowd, but doesn't really care at all. Shiva climbs into the ring and bounces off the ropes to test them.]

(”Superbitch” by 2 Precious plays on the pa system, and the crowd waits. After a few seconds, the curtains part, and out comes a cloud of pinkish smoke. Through this comes “Mistress” Monica Brant. She is dressed in a black, form concealing long tights and top. Over this she wears long black leather gloves and boots. Completing the ensemble is her infamous purse.)

[Ring Announcer]
Her opponent! Hailing from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada! Representing the Femme Fatale.. Here is the “Misty” Monica Brant!

[Ed]
We have a bell and we have a lock up.. this match should be pretty interesting.. Monica Brant with the experience factor on her side.. but Shiva has a ton of untapped ability. Brant trying for a suplex, but Shiva isn?t having any of that.. and nails her with a punch.

[Biff]
Shiva with a whip.. reversal by Brant.. Shiva off the ropes and Brant nails her in the midsection with a knee.. and Brant with a spinning powerbomb! Brant is up and is posing for the crowd.. Shiva is down..

[Ed]
Shiva slowly gets to her feet.. she seems a little wobbly.. Brant with a clothesline and Shiva goes over to top and to the floor..

[Biff]
Did you see the back of her head his the concrete?

[Ed]
Shiva is out on the floor.. she hasn?t moved.. the referee is going out of the ring to check on Shiva..

[Biff]
He should be counting her out..

[Ed]
The referee is calling for the bell here.. I?m not sure what?s going on.. he?s also calling for a stretcher..

[Biff]
What the..

[Ed]
Monica looks very confused inside that ring.. she?s looking down at Shiva.. possibly a look of concern on her face..

[Biff]
Here comes the gurney.. paramedics are placing Shiva on it.. and strapping her in..

[Ed]
I have absolutely /no/ idea what has just happened.. Shiva has basically just collapsed during this match..

[Biff]
Not much of a win for Brant.. but it is a win.. the referee stopping this match

[Ed]
I?m going to go down and see what?s going on here..

[Ed drops his headset and walks around the ring.. ]

[Biff]
Well.. I?m not sure what I?m to do here.. the medics are giving Shiva the once over here.. several OWA officials are now at ringside, as well as Ed.. he?s asking a lot of questions.. You expect injuries in wrestling, but at least you sort of have an idea of what caused them.. here, it just doesn?t seem like we have a clue as to what?s going on.

[Ed walks back and takes his seat, refitting his headphones back on.]

[Biff]
Find out anything?

[Ed]
Well.. they?re calling it a concussion of sorta.. Monica Brant has been taken to the back, and they?re now taking Shiva to the hospital.. you can see the paramedics rolling her up the aisle. Thing is.. they don?t think that anything in this match caused the concussion, but they won?t know for sure until they get her to the hospital. It?s an unfortunate accident when something like this happens. You see bumps all the time in pro wrestling.. but this is something completely different. When I was talking to one of the medical staff, they said that Shiva might have been injured going into this match and completely unaware. Another OWA stated that there will be an investigation regarding this incident and hopefully we?ll get some answers.

[Biff]
So.. what do we do now?

[Ed]
I guess the show goes on.. we?ve got a Falls Count Anywhere match lined up. Part 2, if you like, considering what happened at last night?s awards ceremony.. let?s go to the back and get some comments from the competitors in this event.
============
(Shelly is backstage outside the dressing room. To her side is typically irate-looking Danny Bouchard in his wrestling gear, his flag leaned up against a wall and a beer in his hand.

[Shelly]
Danny Bouchard, you’re one of the busier people tonight at Deck The Halls, participating in both the Battle Royal but also this rather sudden match with Fantasia. First, about the Battle Royal–

[Bouchard]
You know, honestly, I don’t give two [CESNORED]s about the [CENSORED] Battle Royal because right now I got more important business to think about. Now everybody saw the Awards show saw me do two thing: One, Danny Bouchard is the most eloquent speaker in WSWCS–

[Shelly]
OWA.

[Bouchard]
Whatever, and quit interrupting me. I proved that. And I also proved that I am the most proficient brawler in WCSW.

[Shelly]
OWA…

[Bouchard]
You think I care? So I proved that, or I was provin’ that when those [CENSORED] cops showed up. But now, I got a chance to prove that not only am I the most eloquent, and the most dangerous in a brawl, but I am the greatest overall wrestler around. Danny Bouchard has big plans for 1998, and they’re gonna kick off by closing out 1997 by crushing that fat [CENSORED] excuse for a wrestler. Outta my way.

(Danny grabs his flag, tosses his beer can behind him, and marches out towards the entranceway.) ============ [Ring Announcer] Introducing first…

["Your Little Secret" by Melissa Etheridge blasts over the P.A. system.]

[Ring Announcer]
From Vancouver, British Columbia Canada weighing in tonight at 178 pounds- Fantasia!

[Fantasia comes to the ring, bandage wrapped around her head and wearing a purple singlet.]

[Biff]
Melissa Etheridge huh, think there’s any meaning behind that?

[Ed]
Biff!!

[Before the announcer can speak further, he is tapped on the shoulder. He turns around, where a stubble-growth man in ratty clothes hands him a piece of paper. The announcer reads it, looks back over at the man, and reluctantly hands him the microphone. The man speaks in a heavy Quebecois accent.]

[Man]
‘Dis on? We okay? Ahem–due to a reasonable request by one of the competitors, the following introductions will be en francais!

(the crowd shows some annoyance)

[Man]
Et maintenant voici, le vainqeur futur de ce match, pesant 116 kilogrammes avec un tailleur de 195 centimetres. Il est un legende en Canada, et la Fierte De Trois-Rivieres! Venant de Trois-Rivieres, dans La Belle Province de Quebec, Canada, le plus fort, le plus terrifiant, le meillieur de toutes les hommes, et les femmes aussi, voici DANNY BOUCHARD!!!

(The crowd, not really understanding much of that, picks up when they hear Danny’s name and promptly commence booing. At that, the instrumental O Canada starts up, and Danny Bouchard strides out, proudly carrying the fleur-de-lis which match his tights. His right knee is bandaged from a deep cut suffered at the awards show. He stops along the way to verbally abuse some fans before noticing Fantasia and wielding the flag pole at the ready.)

[Ed]
I must admit, Biff, I wouldn’t have thought of Fantasia as a bad ass until the award ceremony last night. I can’t believe the way those two went at each other.

[Biff]
And tonight’s not going to be much different, folks. So, put away the left over cranberry sauce and turkey, ’cause you might never want to eat again after this one.

[Ed]
Fantasia still looking a little wounded from that brawl last night, Biff.

[Biff]
You think she looks bad, Danny Bouchard may never have kids! Then again, he might not have had kids anyway. No need to ring the bell, Fantasia charges! Danny sees her and we’ve got a brawl on the apron! And Danny grabbing Fantasia’s hair…clothesline on the top rope! Now he grabs her legs and pulls her to the outside! A hard right hand, and back from Fantasia! We’ve got a brawl already and the match hasn’t officially started yet.

(Ding.)

[Ed]
There goes the bell and Fantasia nailing Danny with a throat chop! Danny pauses in his punches and Fantasia with a thrust kick! Bouchard over the guard rail! Fantasia following him in and James Beard the ref following close behind just in case someone actually tries to make a tag.

[Biff]
A real thrill for the fans as they get to see Bouchard and Fantasia up close and personal. Fantasia knocking Bouchard into the guard rail! And now over the guard rail! Fantasia following him over and the ref struggling to keep up. Bouchard getting back to his feet and rolling…into the ring? What kinda weird strategy is that?

[Ed]
Probably the first time someone has rolled into a wrestling ring to get a breather. Fantasia rolling in after, Danny up first, a grab and a hotshot! Danny spinning around and catching Fantasia on the ropes, and now the man from Trois Riveres better mount some kind of offense pretty quickly here or it will take more than the canvas to save him!

[Biff]
Good thing you’ve been working on your ab muscles. Bouchard grabbing Fantasia, LEAPING….NO! Fantasia pushes him off and it looked like Bouchard was getting a little premature there.

[Ed]
Big right from Bouchard, followed up by a bodyslam!

[Biff]
Okay, maybe he wasn’t.

[Ed]
Bouchard now waiting for Fantasia to get up…and she seems willing to accommodate…Bouchard with a charge and a clothesline! Fantasia out and Danny slides through the ropes after her. Danny with a pickup…going for a suplex…blocked by Fantasia! A right hand and now the lady with her own supl…no! Danny blocks, backs off and then charges in with a head of steam!

[Biff]
Which is nothing at all like a head of stone. The two of them now going at it with lefts and rights. The fans cheering on Fantasia, the camera following them as they work there way around ringside and the ref standing nearby and probably wondering why he’s getting paid so much to do so little.

[Ed]
Danny now with a front-face…Fantasia back drops him! Right on the concrete! Fantasia stomping on Danny as he tries to get to his feet. Danny heading for the locker room and Fantasia following close behind. Dropkick from Fantasia! Danny shot through the curtains and down on the ground again.

[Biff]
And now’s when it gets interesting, folks. Anything back there can be used as a weapon, and we mean anything. The camera following those two superstars along with the referee. Fantasia going after Danny…Northern Lights suplex! Danny down and Fantasia just stands over him. And a boot to the groin from Fantasia!

[Fantasia]
Do you like THAT scum? Huh, do ya?

[Ed]
Fantasia looking around for something…oh my. Fantasia grabbing one of the tables back in the locker room area and SLAMMING it down on Danny! Bouchard not moving much as Fantasia pulls the table off and sets it up. What’s she going for…moonsault! And IT MISSES!

[Biff]
Bouchard somehow moving out of the way of that moonsault and now Fantasia not moving very much! Bouchard stirring but he might not be able to capitalize on his great strategic move.

[Ed]
He rolled a little, Biff. That’s hardly a great strategy.

[Biff]
Danny has Fantasia on the arena stairway and is laying into her with lefts and rights! The ref telling him to get off but there’s not a lot he can do about it. Danny does get off…and boots Fantasia in the groin! Dammit, Danny, not there!

[Ed]
Biff! Danny getting a measure of revenge for all the male fans in the audience…and the ref checking to see if Fantasia is able to continue the match…she says yes and pushes him aside…going after Danny but he sees her coming…and we’re back to the fists and feet as the two start brawling it out again!

[Biff]
Fantasia heading for high ground now as she pushes Danny into the arena stairs. The two of them exchanging lefts and rights all the way up to…what’s up on that floor anyway, Ed?

[Ed]
I don’t know, Biff, but I hope they’re not having any kind of violence is sports commission up there now. The camera following the two of them up as Danny…oh, man! A powerslam by Danny on the tiled floor! Now a pick-up…and a slam into the stairway railing! Fantasia falls back…and I think she’s been busted open!

[Biff]
Well, she should be used to that, considering the bloody match she had with Shiva a few weeks ago. Bouchard now dragging Fantasia to her feet and…hey, that’s a merchandise stand there! Danny spots it and tosses Fantasia face first! Good thing whoever runs it is probably going to the bathroom.

[Ed]
Bouchard looking for something he can use against Fantasia now…no good, everything here is made of foam. A pick up and Fantasia with a desperation dropkick! Damn, that came out of nowhere! And Fantasia picking up a Danny Bouchard shirt and choking him with it!

[Biff]
Oh, the irony. Fantasia picking up Bouchard with the shirt and clotheslining him down again. She’s got his legs…scorpion! Fantasia with the first scientific wrestling hold of the match and quite possibly the night!

[Ed]
Bouchard though trying to power out of it…he’s got a definite size advantage here…and he does! But that took a lot out of him and Fantasia still on her feet…elbow drop to Bouchard’s back! And another! The ref standing by to count a cover but it hasn’t happened thus far. I have a feeling the last thing either of these two want to do is pin the other.

[Biff]
Looks like it. Then again, falls count anywhere isn’t a stipulation you use if you want a nice, calm wrestling match. Fantasia pulling Bouchard up…and toward the arena steps…she’s not going to…oh! Danny being pushed onto the steps and he’s going down!

[Ed]
Bouchard rolling about halfway down the stairs…Fantasia following him…and kicking him where he lies! Bouchard continuing to roll just to get away from those vicious kicks. Fantasia with a pick-up…and another toss! Bouchard face first down the stairs. Oh!

[Biff]
Bouchard hitting the guard rail on the way down and now both wrestlers busted open in this match-up. Hey, I’m surprised it took this long for the blood to flow. Bouchard trying to get up…Fantasia above him on the stairs, she turns around…ASIA MOONSAULT! Right onto Danny!

[Ed]
Beard running down the stairs as Fantasia lies on top of Danny. Finally, a count…1…2…shoulder up! Bouchard trying to shake loose of Fantasia. I think that moonsault hit them both pretty hard, Biff. They’re both looking shaky as they get to their feet.

[Biff]
Bouchard doesn’t even look sure of where he is now as Fantasia grabs him…suplex! Bouchard down and Fantasia looking unsure of what to do next…she grabs the French-Canadian and tosses him into a wall! And then into another wall! Damn, that’s gonna hurt in the morning. Grabs him again…pulling him down the hall…into the…what is that?

[Ed]
Looks like one of the shower rooms, Biff! Fantasia following him in and it looks like…yes, the men’s shower room! Wrestlers, trainer and assistants scatter as Bouchard gets to his feet…dropkick from Fantasia and Danny crashes into a row of lockers!

[Biff]
Fantasia slow to capitalize, though, as she watches a few of the men leaving…

[Ed]
She is NOT! She’s woozy from all the punishment she’s taken this match. Don’t forget she’s loosing blood pretty rapidly, as well.

[Biff]
Sure, whatever. Fantasia grabbing Bouchard now and pulling him somewhere else…into the shower itself! The cameraman having to stay back because of the steam, but we can still see most of what’s going on…Fantasia going to slam Danny’s head…no, he blocks it! And slams her head into the wall! Man!

[Ed]
Fantasia stunned by that move as Danny grabs her…LEAPING DDT! RIGHT ON THE TILE! Danny makes the cover and Beard in there…1…2…3!

[Biff]
DANNY WINS IT! MAN, that was something else!

[Announcer]
The winner of the match, DANNY BOUCHARD!

(The ref raises Danny’s hand, and tries to keep him from falling over.)

[Ed]
One hell of a match here at Deck the Halls, folks. Danny Bouchard pulling it off in the end with a pin on Fantasia.

[Biff]
And both wrestlers tonight proving they’ve got what it takes to go the distance with anyone here in the OWA. Any word on the condition of Shiva?

[Ed]
We?ve got nothing at all right now.. we?re still waiting for an update from the hospital. We?re going to take a quick break and be back with more action.

[Shelly Marks]
I’m here with Ricky “The SHOW” Hype getting ready for his match against Executioner. Ricky, you excepted Executioner’s open challenge for Deck The Halls. Any motive behind it?

[Ricky Hype]
Let me tell ya something Shelly. You know what Hype is all about. Gettin’ to the top and giving the fans what they deserve. I’ve been looking at the league lately and I’m not seeing the flash that I used to see. Soooo, I decided to spice up the lives of the most boring. Yep, the bores of the OWA, the Crew. I mean man, are these people alive in there. One to many family gatherings or something.

[Shelly Marks]
Any special tactics for the match Ricky?

[Ricky Hype]
Oh, you know, the flash, the glitz, pyrotechnics and such. and the BEST part of all!! I’m gonna put the AXE into Ex!! That should cover my victory tonight. Hey Shelly, you had any of this Buddy Fudge’s yet?

[Hype hands Shelly a tub of ice cream as the scene fades] ===========
[Executioner]
Well Hype, this is your chance for the big time boy, but I guarantee I won’t go down easy, I don?t think that we have had the pleasure of meeting in the ring yet..? so this should make quite a interesting match, lets just hope we can do it with no interference… which brings me to Trinity and Virgo, Ya know you boys made a big error jumping me to get to Consuelo during our last match, as I have said before I am sick and tired of people interfering in my matches. I guess now its time to put up or shut up and do something about it?
===========
(The scene cuts to outside of the Arena where you see a car come around the corner, and stop. It’s a red sports car with a license plate reading ASIAN I. Asian Invasion gets out of the drivers side, and turns to the camera.)

[Asian Invasion]
Hello everyone, and welcome to The Way It Is, LIVE and on the scene at Deck The Halls. Today’s business is of great importance, on the agenda today, is winning the TV title. Now, you may ask yourself, Asian, how do you plan on doing that. Well let me tell you something. I’ve got a little trick or two up my sleeve for tonight, tonight is Asian’s night, and no one’s gonna stop me from being at center spotlight when the night comes to a close. I’ve got one surprise for you right now, just to preview you on what’s in store for the OWA tonight, and that is that…

(The pager clipped to Asian’s pocket begins to beep.)

[Asian Invasion]
Well, looks like I’m gonna have to go. My surprise, you’ll find out tonight, so stay tuned boys and girls, and that’s The Way It Is.
===========
[Ed]
Those were comments from the competitors in our next match? let?s go down to ringside for the introductions.

[From the arena speakers comes the ever popular seasonal great "Here Comes Santa Claus"... right down Santa Claus lane... all his reindeer.. holding on the reins... Vixen, Blitzen, Prancer, Comet, Cupid, etc. etc.]

[From behind the curtains comes a hearty "HO! HO! HO!" in an unmistakable voice. Parting the curtains to a loud roar comes a huge motorized sleigh covered in Christmas lights and surrounded by the now familiar H.Y.P.E. kids dressed in little elf costumes. Riding high in the sleigh is none other than Santa Hype decked out in a red and white Santa outfit topped off with a giant red hat. Waving to the crowd, Santa Hype tosses out gift wrapped presents from an enormous bag at the back of the sleigh.]

[Santa Hype climbs down from the sleigh, grabbing two presents and hands one to Ed, then one to Biff before entering the ring]

[Santa Hype, singing and doing the Santa shuffle] We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, and a happy new year!!!!

[Hype, shedding the Santa outfit and then flexing] Merry Christmas to all!!! And to Ex, a good NIGHT!!!!

[Ring Announcer]
This match is one fall. Already in the ring, weighing in at 257 pounds.. here is Ricky.. “The Show”.. Hype!

[Hype removes the Santa outfit as the ring announcer continues..]

[Announcer]
And his opponent?

[The arena lights dim as Motor City Madhouse by Ted Nugent blares over the arena p.a., as the lights start to return to normal The Executioner charges through the curtains and runs towards the ring, he jumps up on the ring apron and up to the top rope where he acknowledges the crowd, he then turns to face Hype in the middle of the ring.]

[Ed]
This?ll be an interesting contest.. now.. what?s this?

[Asian Invasion makes his way down the aisle.. he hops in the ring, chair in hand.. he points at Hype and is saying a few things.. Hype lunges for Invasion, but the referee is holding him back.. ]

[Biff]
Invasion got a nice win over Hype a week or so ago.. what could he possibly be beefing with him about now?

[Invasion continues the verbal assault on Hype.. who continues to try and get to Invasion, but the referee is keeping him in the corner.. the referee turns to talk to Hype and Invasion swings that chair and NAILS Executioner in the skull with it.. Executioner falls to the mat and Invasion slides out under the ring..]

[Ed]
What the hell was /that/ all about?!?

[Biff]
Hype breaks away from the ref and goes over to stomp on Executioner.. man.. I smell set up..

[Ed]
These two played Executioner for a fool.. I?ll tell you what.. talk about your Christmas spirit.. Hype sets up Executioner and nails him with the bulldog.. and goes for the cover..

[Biff]
Only academic here.. one.. two.. three!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 1:04, Ricky “The Show” Hype..

[Ed]
I?ll tell you what.. Executioner is going to be looking for blood.. speaking of blood.. Executioner is bleeding from the forehead where that chair nailed him.. he has no idea what?s going on..

[Biff]
And Hype and Invasion walking up the aisle together.. all chummy as can be.. I kinda like it.

[Ed]
You would. Let?s go back to the locker room..
=======
[In the locker room of a lone man who is preparing for an intense match, a veteran of the art of the cage, decked in his usual attire, awaiting the call of the ring. A decisive match, finally he lifts his head with his glasses to speak.]

[Davey]
For years, I have seen all kinds of wrestlers.. those who could get the job done, and those who just do the job for others. Taleis, I warned you long ago, step in between me and America, and you shall suffer extreme consequences. Very soon, you shall feel the coldness of the cage, as it freezes on your skin, and you can feel your own flesh burns of agony. Soon, you shall see yourself wearing that mask again, for you shall have no face left to show in public after the torture I shall emit onto you. America won’t be there to help you, so finally you will get to meet the master of your destruction!

[Davey gets up and leaves]
=======
[Ed]
Let?s go to ringside for our next match..

[Ring announcer]
This match is for one fall.. coming down the aisle.. hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, standing at 6 feet, 3 inches, weighing in at 227 pounds, the Enforcer Adam Sanchez!

[The crowd waits anxiously for the Enforcer to emerge from the locker room, but Adam Sanchez does not appear, nor does any entrance music play. Finally, Sanchez appears in the entrance way garbed in his red and black harlequin singlet and his black leather duster. Notably absent are the loops of chain on the left shoulder of the coat. The Enforcer walks to the ring oblivious of the fans who spout forth a mixed reaction.]

[Ring Announcer]
And his opponent…she hails from Chicago, ILLINOIS…weighing in at 205 pounds.. …She is the Enforcer of the Femme Fatal.. this is Rachel.. Ryan!!!

(The opening strains of Judas Priest’s “Hell Bent for Leather” crank as the sound of a motorcycle revving rumbles over the arena. Rachel Ryan rolls out on her custom Harley, chrome gleaming in the lights as strobes flash down upon her. She wears a studded leather jacket over her black posing bikini, her powerful body oiled and glistening. Rachel guides the bike around the ring, her fist raised as the fans cheer wildly. Upon completing the circle, she dismounts, allowing a pair of attendants to guide the bike back as she climbs up the steps and into the ring.)

[Ed]
And here we are off for this long awaited encounter? with both wrestlers staking claim to the name, “The Enforcer”, we?ll see which one truly /is/ the Enforcer.

[Biff]
By all rights and reason, Adam Sanchez was the first Enforcer, but he vanished, then Rachel came along, so it?s hard to say who really should be called the Enforcer.. But I?ll tell ya what.. I don?t really care.. I want this match to get over with so we can see Scott and Taleis..

[Ed]
Biff.. shutup..

[Biff]
Gee.. someone lost their holiday spirit..

[Ed]
There?s the bell.. I do believe that this is the first encounter between these two.. Sanchez turns around to pose to the crowd and Ryan just nails him from behind..

[Biff]
There ya go.. typical Femme cheap-shot.. Ryan off the ropes, nails Sanchez with a shoulderblock and he goes down.. Ryan setting up for a bulldog.. but Sanchez throws her into the ropes.. Ryan off, Sanchez ducks a clothesline.. and nails her with an elbow smash..

[Ed]
Dragon suplex by Sanchez.. one.. t.. kickout by Ryan.. Looks like Sanchez might be trying for a belly to back, but Ryan nails him in the mouth with an elbow.. Ryan drives a fist to the midsection.. Back suplex by Rachel.. NO! Sanchez turns it into a cross body and in a pinning position.. one.. two.. kickout by Ryan..

[Biff]
Ryan up and nails Sanchez with a boot to the gut and a swinging neckbreaker.. Ryan with a whip.. and catches Sanchez, planting him with a spinebuster.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Sanchez.. Fisherman suplex by Ryan.. one.. two? kickout by Sanchez..

[Ed]
Dropkick by Ryan and she picks up Sanchez and whips him into the ropes.. Sanchez ducks a clothesline.. and ducks another.. but runs right into another spinebuster.. one.. two.. th.. kickout by Sanchez.. and this match is taking its toll on both competitors.. they?ve been going at it non-stop since the bell sounded..

[Biff]
Hey.. this ain?t your cheesy league where you take 18 months off and come back to a title shot.. this is the OWA where you get your money?s worth no matter what.. Ryan with a whip.. backdrop attempt fails as Sanchez nails her with a knee lift..

[Ed]
Sanchez with a springboard rana.. and follows it up with a swinging neckbreaker.. Sanchez clamps on an abdominal stretch.. He?s apparently putting a lot of power into that one as you can see the pain etched on Ryan?s face.. she struggles to the ropes and finally reaches it.. the ref calls for a break..

[Biff]
Sanchez with a semi clean break as he nails Ryan in the gut before letting go.. Sanchez with cross corner whip.. and he charges in and nails Ryan with a spinning leg lariat, that send both he and Ryan over the top and they tumble to the floor..

[Ed]
Referee starting his count.. Ryan runs the head of Sanchez into the guardrailing.. and she whips him into the ringpost.. NO! Reversal by Sanchez and Ryan hits the steel..

[Biff]
Sanchez grabs a chair and lays it across the back of Ryan.. he swing it again, but Ryan ducks and he hits the ringpost.. and immediately drops the chair like it was on fire..

[Ed]
Ryan nails him in the midsection with a boot and smashes his head into the ring apron? uh oh.. we have a bell..

[Biff]
What? Oh man..

[Ed]
These two are going at it.. but I am sure that this match is officially over..

[Announcer]
Both wrestlers have been counted out of the ring.. this match has been called a double count-out.

[Ed]
Officials finally got these two apart.. I?m sure we?ll be seeing this match again.. neither will be happy with the outcome of this match, I?m sure.

[Biff]
You can hardly blame them..

[Ed]
While we get the cage lowered for the Davey Scott-Taleis encounter, let?s go back to the locker room with Shelly Marks, along with the commissioner of the OWA..
==========
[Shelly]
Thanks Ed.. I?m here with the commissioner of the OWA.. and he has a special announcement in regards to Endurance?s Evil Challenge to be held in February.

[Commish]
Thanks, Shelly. Everyone knows that Endurance?s Evil Challenge is schedule for a live PPV showing on February 22nd, in 1998. I want to, first of all, address a few rumors..

The winner of the Endurance?s Evil Challenge tournament, will be come the first ever WFW World Champion. Invitations have been sent out to other federations, and we are awaiting word from them as to which competitors will be competing in the tournament. The OWA has been allowed four seeds in the tournament and one of them was fill earlier in the evening by Consuelo Salyards.

With three seeds left to fill, I have decided the best way to fill these seeds will be to hold three different types of matches. The first, will be another Battle Royal, however, this battle royal will have a special stipulation.. if you are thrown out of the ring, you are gone. However, the goal is not to eliminate everyone.. the goal will be to climb the pole in the corner and retrieve a key that will be your admittance into the tournament. 15 OWA wrestlers will be randomly picked to participate.

The second match will be a Royal Rumble style battle royal. 15 OWA Wrestlers will be picked at random to participate.

The third match will be a Bunkhouse Battle Royal. Come dressed as you like, and bring any weapon, within reason, that you like and try to get everyone else out of the ring. These matches will be held consecutively on Primal Rage shows. The three winners will get seeds into the tournament.

How the other federations select their seeds will be up to them, but we?ll keep everyone informed on the status of the tournament as we get the news.

[Shelly]
There?s the low down on EEC 1998.. let?s go back to ringside for the big Cage Match.
=========
[Ed]
This one’s gonna be big, Biff.

[Biff]
You said it, Ed. We’ve got Davey Scott, the man who’s angered everybody in the OWA, and Taleis, the man who put him in the hospital for two weeks. If Scott wins, he gets to handcuff Taleis and whip him with a strap. If Taleis wins, Scott is suspended from the OWA for 30 days.

[Ed]
This has got to be one of the more bizarre stipulations I’ve seen on a match in a long time. Not to mention that it’s all happening in a steel cage, completely sealed and the door locked. I pity the poor ref who’s going to be locked in their with them.

[Biff]
Nah. If he’s smart enough to stay out of the way, he’ll be fine.

[Ed]
Folks, the steel cage has been lowered to the ring, the ref is in position. The only thing to do now is give it to the official.

[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen, this match is scheduled for one fall, inside a STEEL CAGE! (Hardcore pop.) Introducing first, about to make his way to the ring. He has the honor of being the last OWA Internet champion. If he looses tonight, he will be suspended for 30 days from the OWA. He hails from Flagstaff, Arizona and weighs in at 275 lbs. This is DAVEY SCOTT!

[Soon it dims to darkness, then total blackness as eerie sounds begin to place which are soon muffled out by guitar jams as lasers dances long to the rhythmic chords and soon dogs begins to bark in the faint background with an occasion whip crack as the dog bark turns to whisperings, and finally spotlights shine in 180 motions then finally fixes into one position as Davey dressed in his wrestling attire of jeans and boots, is suspended in the air as he hangs onto a chain from the ceiling, but is also supported with harness built into his attire so you can see it, and a wire supporting him, but again, you can't see the wire. He lowers down to the cage walks across the top, opens the top of the cage, and climbs through the hole. He finally climbs down to the floor now prepared for the match.. and the lights go back to normal.]

[Announcer]
And, his opponent. He is a former OWA TV champion. If he looses tonight, he will be handcuffed and given ten lashes with a leather strap. (The announcer points to an official, who holds both the handcuffs and the strap in his hands.) Weighing in at 245 lbs. This is TALEIS!

["Sweet Dreams" by Marilyn Manson begins playing over the PA...but it's suddenly cut off.]

[Voice]
Davey Scott…the song that’s about to play was requested by…well, by just about everyone in the federation, and we mean this with all our hearts. Davey…this one’s for you!

["Back off Bitch" by Guns 'n' Roses begins playing over the PA, and Taleis walks out from the back, laughing. He's dressed in his ring attire, a black singlet with myriad purple patterns. He wears black wrestling boots, and he has a black elbowpad on one arm. The crowd's reaction is mixed...but the boos are getting louder and louder every day, it seems. A lot of the fans cheer simply because of the men Taleis is going to fight this night, however. Taleis grabs the house mic.]

[Taleis]
All right, folks, tonight’s the night. The night that I pull double duty for the OWA…joy. Nothing like wrestling in a huge tag matchup then going on to face a former champion inside a steel cage. [Taleis laughs.] Of course, considering the fact that our opponents in that tag matchup are a bunch of nobody’s from some southern regional fed, and that the former champion I’m facing has the IQ of a dead, hollowed-out tree stump, I’m not too worried.

[Taleis chuckles a bit, then starts strolling around the ring.]

[Taleis]
Well, I suppose I should say my piece about Virgo’s band of losers first. First of all, we have the Sandman…the “Lord of Fitful Slumber” as Virgo refers to him. Well, I’d have to say this nickname is pretty accurate. That man could put an insomniac into a coma with the way he rambles on. [Taleis shakes his head.] Oh…and could that name be a little less original? I don’t think so. Next up, we’ve got this dead guy…what’s his name?

[Some smartass fans in the stands shouts, "Rigor!"]

[Taleis]
I know that, you idiot! I was leading up to it! [Taleis sighs] I swear, some people…anyway. Rigor and…Mortis, I think it was…have to be the lamest pair of people I’ve ever laid eyes on since Crimson Scorpion and Masked Plague left the fed. Rigor, Mortis, you guys must be getting paid a hell of a lot of money to wear those stupid-lookin’ costumes. If not, I suggest you talk to Frenck about a SERIOUS raise, because you both look like complete morons. Of course, Frenck isn’t too bright himself, from what I’ve heard. He CAN’T be…I mean, he gives VIRGO a paycheck, doesn’t he?

[Taleis gets a wholly false look of contrition on his face.]

[Taleis]
Oh, hell, I forgot…OWA pays that little bugger, too. Sorry, Commish. Speaking of Virgo…what is WITH the guy? He comes out here in the OWA, where he’s known as Virgo, then he goes down to that [BLEEP]hole down south, puts on a different mask, and calls himself the Equalizer? And the worst part…he’s the SWF’s champion! Frenck must’ve been desperate to slap the belt on somebody. Virgo, you may be able to kiss enough ass to have moderate success elsewhere, but it doesn’t work that way here. Here you actually have to WORK for your success. Sure, you’re the OWA Television…oh, wait. Pardon me. You dropped the strap to Godiva Rage already, my mistake. I guess now the only belt you’re carrying around is those three pieces of cardboard tied with twine the SWF calls a championship title. So, Virgo, comes to the ring with your loser patrol and that cheap “belt”. I’ll come to the ring with two former champions, a current champion, and a future champion.

[Davey Scott, inside the cage, calls out to Taleis, telling him to get in the cage and shut up..]

[Taleis]
Shut up, girly boy.. I?m getting to you?. I can hear you whining about this being a conspiracy already. “Oh, the OWA wants me out, so they put me in this cage match!” Bleep, bleep, bleep, blah blah blah, ad nauseum. The thing is, your theories could have some merit. Let’s see, you throw the Internet title in the trash, insult it’s heritage, insult all the people who held it, insult the front office for creating it. Yeah, that’s not going to earn you any sort of retribution…dumb-ass. So the bottom line, if I may use that phrase, is that if…when…I beat you, your ass is gone for 30 days. For about a month, we won’t have to listen to your sniveling, whining, feel sorry for me because I try to be bad and fail, stale, boring, and altogether [BLEEP]y interviews. We’ll be spared from watching your mediocre, at best, ring-work. Oh, what a blissful thirty days it could be…but, let’s play the devil’s advocate. Let’s say, by some horrific fluke, you manage to pull of some sort of screw-job victory. Do you honestly think you’ll get the chance to use that strap on my ten times? [Taleis laughs] You wish. There are two people who won’t let that happen, and they go by the names of Mr. America and Monica Brant. Face it, Scott. You crossed the paths of the wrong people, and no matter what happens in our match…you’ll still lose. Time to dance.

[Ed]
Taleis finally about to enter the cage.. Both men focused and ready for this match, Biff.

[Biff]
They’d better be. Bad enough we’re talking about humiliation for whoever looses, both of these guys are going to have fifteen feet of steel to play with in there.

[Ed]
This one is not for young children, that’s for sure. Taleis coming through the cage door and DAVEY CHARGES! Taleis moves, Davey hits the steel and bounces right back! He’s back after Taleis and the two start slugging it out in the ring. The door closes, the bell goes and it’s time to let the animals out!

[Biff]
What?

[Ed]
Sorry, got carried away with the moment.

[Biff]
Both men trading blows in the ring and the ref looking on, not even mentioning the closed fists. Only two ways to win this match and that’s pin or submission. Taleis with a major right hand on Davey, and he charges to the ropes…dropkick from Scott! Taleis down and Davey talking to the crowd now.

[Ed]
Scott proud of that one move but he’d better get back to the match. In a steel cage, one mistake is all you need to make. Taleis back to his feet, and a savate kick from Scott takes him down again! Scott climbing the turnbuckle now, looking out and taunting the fans…off with a fist drop…and Taleis moves!

[Biff]
Taleis moving out of the way and back to his feet now. Both men obviously put a lot of energy into that initial brawl we saw, and are now paying for it. Taleis with a pick-up on Davey and a whip to the ropes, shoulderblock! Scott down and Taleis with a cover! 1…that’s it.

[Ed]
Neither man going to give this one up easily. Scott with a thumb to the eye on Taleis, and the momentum shifts again. Davey with a slam on Taleis and so far Scott’s been able to back up his boasting.

[Biff]
That’s true, Ed. But, don’t forget, Scott’s only in there with one of the people he’s pissed off. After Taleis, he’s got three or four more people he was to beat.

[Ed]
(Laughs) No easy task, there. Scott dragging Taleis to the ropes…nope, a toss into the steel for the T-man. Davey laughing as Taleis falls to the mat. And now, Scott waiting for Taleis to get to his feet…setting him up for something…

[Biff]
Nah, that’s just Davey being nice to Taleis. After all, it is Christmas.

[Ed]
I knew you’d be saying that sooner or later and Scott missing a standing dropkick! Taleis moving out of the way and now dropping an elbow on the prone Scott. And another elbow! And now laying the boots to him! What a great show of scientific prowess we’re seeing here tonight.

[Biff]
Why Ed, that was sarcasm! I guess I am rubbing off on you.

[Ed]
More like you’re contagious.

[Biff]
And Taleis now picking up Scott and a Russian legsweep! And now a pick-up by Taleis. Scott’s going up and down more often than the Canadian dollar in this match. Davey being tossed to the ropes…ducking a clothesline, and coming back with his own! Damn, these two men are prepared tonight!

[Ed]
Scott again tossing insults to the fans, who return the favor, I’m sure. Taleis to his feet and Scott tossing him to the ropes…savate kick! Taleis down again and Scott with a cover! 1…2…shoulder up. Close call but the T-man not willing to call it quits yet. …Biff?

[Biff]
Just a second, Ed. Camera 1, focus on the front row, would ya?

(The camera view changes to a familiar looking woman in the front row. She’s wearing a skimpy kimono and holding a large sign in front of her. The sign says “Davey Scott…simply the best!”)

[Ed]
Her again?

[Biff]
I guess we know why Davey keeps looking out at the fans now!

[Ed]
I doubt it, Ed. He doesn’t seem to have even seen her. I’m sure we’d know if he had. After all, how can you not react to that?

[Biff]
(Laughs) Good point. Damn, I wish I had her holding a sign with my name on it!

[Ed]
Ahem. Anyway, Scott in control now but the momentum so far changing back and forth between these two. Taleis being tossed to the ropes, Davey off the far side…dropkick ducked by Taleis! And referee Davis gets nailed instead! The ref is down and now we’re going to see…well, more of the same, really.

[Biff]
Not like he was doing a lot when he was up. Taleis getting up, but Scott nailing him with a hard right hand! And another! And a headbutt from Davey! Taleis reeling a little and Davey grabbing him now. Carrying him over to the turnbuckle! This could hurt a whole lot.

[Ed]
Taleis being placed on the turnbuckle by Davey. Right hand from Taleis! Another headbutt from Davey! Taleis stunned, Davey in position for a superplex! He hits it!

[Biff]
Davis waking up in time to move out of the way as Taleis hits the mat. Scott covers, Davis…is getting into position. 1…2…kick out! Scott to his feet and in Davis’ face!

[Ed]
Sort of ironic since Davis is still down on the mat. Taleis getting back to his feet, though quicker than Davis is. Taleis grabbing Scott, the Diamond Cutter! Desperation move from Taleis and now both men out on the mat. Davis up and looking at both men. Neither moving much, but he can’t count. Taleis up first.. he nails Scott with an enzuigiri..

[Biff]
Why don’t they just call it a Crescent Kick? It sounds a lot better?

[Ed]
And charging to the ropes…Taleis with a summersault splash on Scott! Scott in pain and Taleis back up and posing for the crowd.

[Biff]
Ick! That was something I don’t want to see under my Christmas tree. Taleis tossing Scott to the ropes now…following him in and leaping up! NO! Damn, that didn’t look good!

[Ed]
Davey ducking at the last minute and Taleis going into the steel. Looked like he was going to try and do a cross-body squash but it backfired. Taleis rolls off and…yep, he’s been cut. Looks like either his nose or forehead is starting to bleed.

[Biff]
First blood to Scott, but I’m betting it won’t be the last. Scott back up and booting Taleis in the face! Ouch! Davey with a pick up and Taleis goes into the ropes…superkick from Scott! Taleis down and Scott looks damned happy about it.

[Ed]
Another pick up and Davey’s got this all going his way now. He tosses Taleis into the corner and follows him in…avalanche! And now a series of shoulder checks by Scott! Taleis in pain, slumping down in the corner. And Davey back to taunt the fans again.

[Biff]
Awful cocky for someone who hasn’t won the match yet. Still, Taleis isn’t moving in the corner, and Davey’s got his blood all over his boot from that superkick. And Taleis had already pulled out his Diamond Cutter. So I guess I’d be cocky too.

[Ed]
That doesn’t surprise me, Biff. Davey pulling Taleis out of the corner now. And, talking about cocky, lying on top of him. The count…1…2..kick out from Taleis! Scott angry and yelling at the ref about the count. Oh-oh, remember what happened the last time Scott did that.

[Biff]
I do and so does Scott. He turns around and starts to stomp on Taleis. Smart move from Davey, not getting distracting in the ring. Scott with a pickup and a headlock…DDT, no! Taleis lifting him up and a BODYDROP! Scott down and Taleis pulling off another fluke!

[Ed]
Taleis heading over to Scott…rolling him over…camel clutch! Smart move by Taleis, considering how much damage Scott’s neck has taken in recent weeks. Taleis locking in the hold, Davis in there asking Davey if he wants to give it up, and Taleis still bleeding from what I guess it a cut above the bridge of his nose there. That’s going to make it harder for him to continue this match.

[Biff]
Ya think? Scott now trying to wiggle out of this hold, not an easy task. Taleis has it locked up…but Davey manages to slip an arm off. Taleis turning it into a reverse chinlock. Davey reaching and he grabs the ropes. The ref warning Taleis to let go, not that he can do anything if Taleis doesn’t.

[Ed]
T-man letting go of Scott and letting Davey pull himself up to his feet…superkick from Taleis! Davey’s face driven into the cage by that one, and now Taleis racking him across the steel. Anyone at home who’s a little squeamish might want to skip the rest of this match.

[Biff]
A little late for that, Ed. Both men bleeding now and Taleis whips Davey to the ropes…legsweep from Taleis. Scott back on the mat and back into that camel clutch! Davey trapped again and in the center of the ring this time! Taleis not leaning back into this hold as much as he should, but I doubt it makes a difference to Davey. Hey!

(The camera view suddenly shifts to the audience. The Scott groupie in the front row is standing now, jumping up and down and trying to keep her robe from falling off. She’s leading a cheer of “Taleis sucks!”)

[Ed]
Hard to believe folks, but this…fan of Davey Scott seems to be successfully leading the crowd on an anti-Taleis cheer!

[Biff]
Hey, the fans are morons, they’ll cheer anyone. Besides, I’d cheer for Scott too, if she was jumping up and down like that near me.

[Ed]
I see your point, Biff. Ahem, anyway, Taleis releasing the hold now and running over to the cage. He’s having some words with that woman in the front row, but she doesn’t seem to care. After all, she’s on the other side of that steel, there’s not much Taleis can do. Taleis with a pick up on Davey, Davey with a right hand but Taleis ducks. Davey might not be able to see with that blood in his eyes, Biff.

[Biff]
True, Ed. Taleis dropkicking Davey to the mat now. Scott down and Taleis with a cover. 1…2…nope! Davey still got enough to kick out. Taleis with a series of punches to Davey’s head. Doesn’t seem like Taleis is too happy about not pinning Scott yet.

[Ed]
Taleis now up and grabbing Scott’s legs…looks like a Scorpion here…no! Davey kicks him away! Taleis moving back in and Davey catches him with a quick punch to the midsection! And another! Maybe all that cheering did him some good after all.

[Biff]
Yeah…maybe. Scott with another Savate kick and Taleis is down! A pick up and a toss to the ropes…dropkick! Davey ignoring the fans now as he drops an elbow on Taleis. Cover…1…2…damn! Kick out by Taleis and obviously this ref missed the episode of Sesame Street when they taught you how to count to 3!

[Ed]
Scott now with another pick up…atomic drop and Taleis wobbles a little…clothesline takes him down! Scott now going to the turnbuckle…he’s going up…and he…stops?

[Biff]
Oh, he’s seen her!

(The camera focuses on the woman in the front row, who is still standing and is now yelling Scott’s name. Scott turns around and starts talking to her.)

[Biff]
Seems like Scott’s not interested in her…whoa! She’s taking it off, Ed, she’s taking it off!

(The camera locks into the woman slowly undoing the belt on her kimono. Security guards come over, but to late to prevent her from dropping the robe and revealing…a tee-shirt and cut-off shorts. There’s some writing on her tee-shirt that says…)

[Ed & Biff]
Never underestimate the power of a woman.

(Scott yells at the top of his lungs as the woman turns around and reveals Monica Brant’s picture on the back of the shirt.)

[Biff]
Scott not believing what he sees, he turns around but Taleis is already up. Big clothesline from Taleis! Scott going into the cage and down to the mat! A pick up by Taleis and he drags Davey to the middle of the ring…Diamond Cutter! Cover…1…2…3!

[Ed]
Taleis pulling it off! Where did that woman go?

(The camera sees the woman disappearing into the crowd, leaving the robe and her sign behind.)

[Biff]
What the heck was that all about?

[Ed]
I have a feeling this is some kind of return favor from Monica to Taleis for putting Scott in the hospital. Either way, Davey Scott now has himself a thirty day suspension and Taleis has a check in the win column.

[Biff]
The fans not sure what to make of this either but a few seem to cheer as he climbs the turnbuckles. The ref shaking Scott now, making sure he’s alright. Scott getting to his feet…looking at Taleis…and he walks toward the door?

[Ed]
Scott obviously had enough punishment for one night. Wait!! Scott sucker punches the ref and takes the strap and Taleis sees him and they are going at it again.. Scott gets the strap around the throat of Taleis and is dragging him to the cage.. he takes the handcuffs and handcuffs Taleis to the cage!

(Davey starts laying into Taleis with the strap. Taleis struggles but the handcuffs are to strong.)

[Biff]
I don?t think Davey appreciates Brant?s humor at all.. he starts to lash Taleis with that strap.. over and over.. here comes security! Here comes Mr. America.. Now America getting involved in this match! As if he doesn’t have enough to do tonight!

(A crowd of officials comes down to ringside, being lead by Mr. America. They charge the cage door, Davey heads them off and America jumps him!)

[Ed]
He had to! His partner Taleis was getting beaten! That was horrible to watch!

[Biff]
Well, I’ve got to agree, Davey doesn’t know when to quit. If I were him, I’d take that 30 day vacation and not come back!

(The officials separate Davey and America. America goes to check on Taleis, and Scott is led out of the cage. The crowd hurls insults and garbage down on him as he’s escorted out. Mr. America is helping Taleis out of the cage, while a crowd of security guards are escorting Davey Scott to the locker room.)

[Biff]
DAMN! I don’t know if America and Scott can even exist in the same fed anymore.

[Ed]
We’re gonna get rid of this cage and be back for more action…

(The scene cuts to the dressing room were Asian Invasion and Ricky Hype are in the back locker room listening to Wu-Tang Clan and going wild. Asian spots the camera, turns down the music, and begins.)

[Asian Invasion]
Hey everyone, it’s Asian Invasion…

[Ricky Hype]
and I’m Ricky “The Show” Hype…

[Asian Invasion]
And we’re broadcasting for The Way It Is, LIVE from Deck The Halls, the greatest OWA Pay Per View ever. If you’re joining us late, you missed a great time as we just SHOCKED THE WORLD, by forming the NEW HOT PAIR of OWA.

[Ricky Hype]
That’s exactly right, and we’re gonna kick it off tonight with our first major title as a pair, ain’t that right Asian.

[Asian Invasion]
That’s right, God-Awful Rage, I said it last night, and I’ll say it now. Sure you’re the best newcomer, that was like beating paralyzed kids in the 100 meter dash, sure you won, but even someone like Mrs. America could’ve won that contest too, the award, not the race, America doesn’t really have the quickness for the full 100 meters.

[Ricky Hype]
That’s exactly right, and don’t forget Rage, I’ll be there watching, and things can get a little out of hand at these things, so watch out or THE SHOW will be all over

[Asian Invasion]
We’ve already made headlines once tonight, and there’s much more to come. Will be back LIVE after the watch, hopefully listening in on Godiva’s excuses after the match is over, so until then…

[Asian Invasion & Ricky Hype]
That’s The Way It Is

[Biff]
Oh.. who cares.. he?s here.. and that?s that..

[Ed]
We?re ready for our next match.. let?s go to ringside.

[Ring Announcer]
This match is one fall.. and it is for the Western States Television Championship. First.. weighing in at 230 pounds.. hailing from New York City.. this is the challenger.. Asian Invasion!

[The arena goes dark, and the ring announcer is suddenly cut off by the laughing of Asian Invasion, followed by him saying, "That's The Way It Is" and then a Rage Against The Machine song kicks in while Asian comes through the curtain in a plush electric golf cart driven by a rather attractive woman. The arena remains dark, except for the spotlight following Asian into the ring. The woman pulls up to the ring, and Asian leans over, gives her a kiss on the cheek, then climbs into the ring as the lights come on.]

[Ring Announcer]
And the champion.. hailing from London, England … weighing 158lbs … the Western States Television Champion … Godiva Rage!!!

[Godiva stalks to the ring, scrambles through the ropes, shouting at everybody, throwing her championship belt at the Asian Invasion. As he catches it she nails him with a right cross]

[Ed]
Godiva Rage just suckering Asian Invasion with that one.. she picks up the title and nails him in the forehead.. and finally the bell.. the referee gets the belt from Godiva, but the damage is done as she lays into Invasion with several kicks to the forehead.

[Biff]
That Rage chick walks along the edge, I?ll tell you.. Rage going for a Dragon Suplex.. but Invasion blocks it and nails her with an elbowshot.. Rage with a cross corner whip.. reversal by Invasion.. she comes out of the corner and nails Invasion with a clothesline..

[Ed]
Godiva takes her eyes off of Invasion to blow a kiss to the crowd and he nails her in the back with a dropkick and she goes to the floor. Invasion goes out after her and bodyslams her on the mat.. he picks her up and whips.. no.. reversal by Rage who sends Invasion into the guardrailing.

[Biff]
Rage takes the match back into the ring.. she whips Invasion.. and nails him with a spinebuster.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Invasion.. Invasion with a rake of the eyes.. and nails her with an atomic drop.. and a clothesline by Invasion..

[Ed]
Invasion nails Rage with a dropkick.. he forces her into a corner and nails her with a slap to the face.. and Godiva just knees him in the groin.. she doesn?t look all that happy with that slap.. she puts him on the top turnbuckle.. and she?s going up as well..

[Biff]
Whoahoho.. we?ve seen this before.. Rage up on the top turnbuckle.. she pulls up Asian and they are standing and this crowd is almost silent.. she tries to lift him for a powerbomb.. but.. OH MY!

[Ed]
OH! Invasion body dropped her from the top turnbuckle to the floor!! And.. OH!!

[Biff]
That had to hurt.. Invasion lost his footing and fell to the floor as well.. both wrestlers are down.. We have officials down trying to check out both wrestlers.. but Asian Invasion is first to his feet.. and pushes the officials away.. he pulls up Rage and rolls her back into the ring..

[Ed]
Invasion goes to the top.. he leaps off and Rage puts up a boot and catches him in the jaw.. Rage slow to get up.. she sets up Invasion and gutwrench.. into a HOTSHOT! Cover.. one.. two.. three!!!

[Biff]
Rage retains the title.. but they?ll both be feeling this one in the morning.. I?ll tell you what..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match, in 20:43 and STILL Western States Television Champion? Godiva.. Rage!!

[Ed]
What a night we?ve had and it all boils down to this match, coming up next.. Traci Lane vs. Mr. America for the Western States Championship. What do you think, Biff?

[Biff]
I?m still thinking America has Traci?s number.. he took a beating in the tag match, but I think he?s more pissed than anything right now..

[Ed]
Let?s go down to ringside!

[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. it is for the Western States Championship!

[The opening guitar rift from "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC rips through the air as a cheer from the crowd rises in the arena. The drums kick in as the music fills the air in the arena.]

[Ring Announcer]
Introducing first! Hailing from Washington D.C. and weighing 278lbs. Here is the challenger for the OWA Championship, the man who claims to be America’s Perfection, MR. AMERICA!

[The chorus kicks in as red and blue lights flicker to the music. Mr. America walks out from between the curtains, wearing long, red and white stripped tights, with a blue square and the 50 white stars on his left side. He has on a blue jacket with the American flag on the back and America's Perfection written across the flag. The crowd goes crazy as a few of the AC/DC fans sing the chorus to the song. Mr. America walks to the ring with a look of intensity on his face. The second verse kicks in as Mr. America goes around the ring post. He climbs up onto the ring apron and turns to the crowd as the second chorus starts up. Mr. America takes his jacket off to reveal he's added back the weight, but is still cut as he's not wearing his usual singlet. He climbs into the ring as the beginning of the guitar solo stars. He gets to the middle and raises his arms in the air as red, white, and blue lights and fireworks go off around the arena. A set of fireworks go off overhead and take the form of the American flag. The chorus kicks in again as the crowd is standing at this point. Mr. America climbs to the second turnbuckle and points to himself. He yells, "I'm what every American aspires to be!" The song dies and Mr. America exits the ring, waiting for Traci Lane to make her entrance.]

[Announcer]
? and his opponent? weighing in at 194 pounds.. here is the current Western States Champion? “The Black Widow”.. Traci Lane!!

(The opening strains of “Fire Woman” by The Cult begin with a slow picking and strumming of an electric guitar; the drums start pounding, the tempo increases, then with an explosion of sonic fury, the song kicks into high gear, chain-saw riffs juxtaposing with howling vocals to electrify the listener. A prismatic eruption of fireworks frames the entranceway as Traci “The Black Widow” Lane strides out to a deafening crowd pop, clad in a black pelvic leotard and matching crop-top bearing a red hourglass. The Western States Title is firmly clipped to her waist. She waves to the fans as she strides down the aisle, then hops onto the apron and slips into the ring.)

[Ed]
Traci and America standing nose to nose in the ring as the referee goes through his narrative to them.. I don?t think they are listening.. they both are friends, but that friendship goes out the window right here and now..

[Biff]
Hey? the big ones on the line.. you can?t let petty friendships interfere when there?s work to be done. There?s the bell finally..

[Ed]
Lock up.. and America with a tiger driver right off the bat.. one. .two.. kickout by Lane who seemed more surprised by that move then hurt.. she backs into a corner and catches her bearing before stepping back into the middle..

[Biff]
America is the picture of confidence right now.. Lock up.. Lane picks him and slams him down.. America jumps to his feet and is met with a spinebuster slam.. one.. two.. kickout by America.. and I think Lane has made her point here..

[Ed]
I think the preliminaries are over at this point.. another lock up.. Traci with a whip.. America comes off with flying forearm and Lane is down.. America with a backdrop driver, and a victory roll.. one.. kickout by Lane.. America with a shoulderblock off the ropes..

[Biff]
America locks in a camel clutch.. Traci reaches out to grab the ropes.. and the ref makes him break the hold, which he does with some reluctance.. Lane to her feet and America walk in and is met with a kick to the midsection from the champion..

[Ed]
Traci forces America into the corner and drives a fist to the midsection, then sends him chest first into the far corner.. clothesline to the back of the head by Lane.. and a bulldog and cover.. one.. two.. kickout by America..

[Biff]
Lane hits a swinging neckbreaker and goes for another cover.. one.. two.. kickout by.. wait just a second.. Danny Bouchard is walking down the aisle.. looks like he?s had a couple of beers in addition to the one he?s holding there?

[Ed]
We need to get some security here.. the fans are tossing stuff at the French Canadian.. he takes a swing at a fan, who ducks just in time.. back in the ring.. Lane is trying for a powerbomb.. but America backdrops her to the ground..

[Biff]
So far all Bouchard has done is tried to rearrange a fan?s face.. nothing so bad as of yet.. America just nailed Lane with a running forearm.. and drops a leg to the throat of the champion.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Lane..

[Ed]
America going for a belly to back.. hold on.. Bouchard just grabbed a chair from a fan and is going to the ring.. Lane with an elbow causes America to release his belly to back.. she runs off the ropes and misses a clothesline, but hits the ref!

[Biff]
Who?s training these refs? America nails Lane with a clothesline.. he?s setting her up for the leaping piledriver!.. NO! Backdrop by Traci.. she gets to her feet and grabs America from behind.. America runs into the ropes.. she?s trying to roll him up, but America is grabbing onto the ropes..

[Ed]
What?s Bouchard doing? He takes a swing at America!! NO!!! America ducks down and Bouchard just NAILS Traci Lane with that chair!! America spin kicks the chair into Bouchard?s face and he falls down to the floor..

[Biff]
America with a cover.. no ref.. he reaches over and pulls the ref over who counts..

one?.

Two?.

THREE!!

[Ed]
I can?t believe America would take a match like that..

[Biff]
Hell, Ed.. You can?t blame America because Bouchard is a bad aim.. speaking of Bouchard he?s getting back up.. he.. as you can imagine, it tossing around quite a number of vulgarities..

[Announcer]
The winner of the match in 14:36.. and? NEW! Western States Champion? Mr? America!!!

[Ed]
Bouchard leaving ringside.. he points the chair to America.. sounds like he wants a piece of the new champion..

[Biff]
America is waving him on, then drops over to check on Lane..

[Ed]
We?re just about out of time.. we?ll have a recap on our special LIVE Primal Rage coming at you soon.. for the whole OWA Production Crew.. we?ll see you next on PPV at Endurance?s Evil Challenge..

[Ed]
I’d like to thank everyone for being here tonight as we bring you the first awards show for Western States Championship Wrestling. Tonight we will take a look at those that went out of their way to make themselves known in this past year of the OWA.

[Biff]
Yeah, even though we were on vacation for about six months there towards the end of the year.

[Ed]
Thanks Biff. We’ll have presentations and acceptances and we hope that everyone will be able to unwind a bit before Deck the Halls tomorrow. We have a fun filled night of awards so let’s get this show started.

[Biff]
Our first category is the most improved wrestler and here to present the award for that are Danny Bouchard and Fantasia.

[Danny Bouchard, wearing a stunning black suit and plainly unhappy with his situation, escorts Fantasia, dressed in a casual white dress, to the podium to a chorus of boos.]

[Bouchard]
Ah, shut up…

[Fantasia]
Oh boy, get the censors ready.

[Bouchard]
(irately) Eh, you know, why ain’t this a bilingual broadcast? These people got no respect for those who ain’t a buncha [CENSORED] anglophones?

[The crowd murmurs]

[Fantasia]
Well, Danny, if you had actually went to rehearsal you would have learned that tonight’s telecast is available in both English and Spanish.

[Bouchard]
(even more irate) SPANISH?! Who the [CENSORED] speaks [CENSORED] Spanish?

[Fantasia]
Latinos, duh!

[Bouchard]
Oh, for Chrissakes, stupid local demographic [CENSORED]. You know how many people are watching this in Quebec?

[Fantasia]
I think I speak for all of us when I say, who the [CENSORED] cares?!?!

[Bouchard]
Wha?! Listen, you stupid [CENSORED] left-wing [CENSORED] West Coast water-logged whale-hugging [CENSORED] piece of enviro-loony trash, if it weren?t for Quebec we’d both be [CENSORED] Yankees… uh…

[Danny glances out at the crowd. The crowd is silent, most people in shock, or disgust]

[Bouchard]
…*cough*… and, uh… the nominees are…

[The video wall comes to life as scenes of sneak attacks and jumps are shown quickly before the word "SURPRISE" pops up. The voice over speak as the scenes are shown]

Gustaffson enters the ring during Davey Scott’s Respect Match Freddy Fever turns face.
Jungle Mask turns out to be Monica Brant.
Johnny Stallion turns on Mike Mustang

[Fantasia]
Well can I have the envelope?

[Bouchard]
Bah, go hug a tree.

[Fantasia]
I’ve had just about enough of this verbal abuse. You certainly don’t know how to treat a lady.

[Bouchard]
I don’t see no lady here, just some [CENSORED]–

[Fantasia]
You son of a [CENSORED]!

[With that, Fantasia kicks Danny Bouchard in the groin. The male contingent of the audience winces. As Danny doubles over the lady from Vancouver gives him a knee-lift that sends him crashing to the floor. Several security agents storm the stage and drag Fantasia off kicking and screaming while Danny struggles to his feet. Biff Franklin comes to the microphone.]

[Biff]
Uhh…the winner is..

[He pieces together the torn envelope and reads]

Jungle Mask turns out to be Monica Brant.

[The orchestra plays 'Superbitch' as Monica Brant moves up to the stage and takes the award, looking off the stage a bit nervously before turning back to the audience, smiling again.]

[Monica]
Looks like the fun is starting without me.. It’s surprising that something this good can come out of something this bad. I worked hard with several officials behind the scenes of the then OWA to try and pull this masquerade off, and it looks like I succeeded. Thank you very much for this award, and here’s hoping I can top myself in the coming year. (Monica gets a devilish grin on her face.) After all, I still have some tricks up my sleeve, don’t I Davey?

[Monica heads back to her seat.]

[The scene cuts back to Ed and Biff as they walk back to the podium. Ed looks at Biff with a look as disbelief as Biff looks at a woman in the audience with a look of disbelief.]

[Biff]
I didn’t know those things came in *that* size!

[Ed]
BIFF!!

[Biff]
Huh? Oh…yeah…and it looks like Danny Bouchard and Fantasia are going to get some early practice for their Deck the Halls matches. The audience laughs…

[Ed]
Biff, you weren’t suppose to read that.

[The audience chuckles.]

[Biff]
Oh? Well, I hate TelePrompTers anyhow.

[Ed Bagel groans.]

[Ed]
For our next award, we have Davey Scott to give away most inspirational.

[Davey comes out looking smiling, as he reaches the podium hearing cheers and jeers, Davey only laughs]

[Davey]
In my eyes, and almost everyone else, the most inspirational wrestler isn’t just someone who carries the belt, it is much more. It has to be someone who willing to step into the ring and give it his and her all day or night, 7 days a week. Someone who is willing to go through havoc to bring the views on wrestling to a high standards. Also, an inspirational wrestler, is someone who can reform the standards of wrestler to a higher level, and still can go on. You could be a champion, but that doesn’t mean you are inspirational.. you could be the worst wrestler in the world, but if you put your heart into it, that all that counts. Someone who puts all there heart to the sport is truly defined the most inspirational wrestler. The nominees for Most Inspirational are:

[Video wall lights up and flashes a series of wrestlers on the screen, before stopping at "INSPIRATIONAL". The voice over picks up and begins to list the nominees.]

Freddy Fever
Amazon Woman
Traci Lane

[Davey]
The winner of this years Most Inspirational Wrestler is..

Traci Lane..

(Traci ascends the stairs to the podium, and accepts the award with a broad smile. She turns to the crowd and leans a bit closer to the mic.)

[Traci]
Thank you so much. I’m very pleased that in the course of defining my direction, I’ve come across as someone who might inspire others in a positive way. There is a great deal of disillusionment from the public toward athletes generally these days, what with all their complaining and misbehavior, so I hoped I could provide an example that shows we’re not all overpaid reprobates. I enjoy meeting my fans and providing a role model for girls who wish to broaden their horizons. Really, this award wouldn’t be possible if I didn’t get support for what I do, so I consider it shared with those who stand behind me. Thank you.

[Traci Lane exits the stage and walks backstage. Ed and Biff come out to the podium again.]

[Ed]
Traci Lane looking as lovely as always.

[Biff]
Yeah, but nowhere near as good as Godiva. Speaking of Godiva, it’s going to be Ms. Rage and Shiva giving away our next award of best card.

[Shiva walks out to the podium, clad in her usual black jean and leathers, sunglasses in place as per usual. Signs still show that glancing cut on her forehead with her bout with Fantasia. She takes the envelope out from her jacket and begins to go for the mic.]

[Godiva Rage sweeps up to the awards podium in a fishnet mesh dress with a small bra and a knickers set on underneath. She bounces up next to Shiva, leaning into the microphone before Shiva can even speak.]

[Godiva]
Is Brooklyn in the HOOOOOUUUUUUUUSE!?!?!?!?!

[Godiva breaks down into a fit of giggles. Shiva rolls her eyes.]

[Godiva]
Oooh, I always wanted to do that. Oy, me and me rather conservative partner ‘ere was chosen to present the award for the best card. I still say it was that card I got from a poetic bloke in Manchester … Roses is red, I wear Dockers, here’s twenty pounds can I squeeze your knock… wot you mean it ain’t appropriate for TV? Foyne, I’ll just stand ‘ere and look pretty while Shiva does all the work then, awright?

[Shiva rolls her eyes again.]

[Shiva]
Oi stop that, you’re making my head hurt. [winces]

[Godiva]
Does this ‘elp. AWOOOOOOGAHHHHHH!!!! AWOOOOOOGAHHHHHH!!!! OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[Shiva]
Now to all of you out there, if any of you out there make ANY comparisons to the Spice Tarts about us two here, I will PERSONALLY rip yer bollocks off you got that? Just because we’re both from ol’ Brittania doesn’t mean the two of us are no-talented sluts… well one of us at least.

[Godiva]
That’s right. O’ course I don’t know if Shiva’s a talented slut or not. Bloody ‘ell, I don’t swing that way.

[Shiva clears her throat and adjusts her sunglasses a bit. Before continuing, she flashes Godiva a playful grin.]

[Shiva]
Just kidding hon… now that that business is settled, we gotta present this thing. So to the nominees of the best card award:

[Video wall comes to life, as many scenes are flashed through quickly, before settling on the words "CARD". Voice over begins, while clips of each wrestler are shown]

Halloween Horror 96
Halloween Horror 97
Crime Spree 97
Caged Fury 1997
OWA vs. LAW: Behind Enemy Lines

[Video walls comes to a halt with the word "CARD" on it.]

[Shiva]
And the top card of 1997 is Caged Fury 1997. And while I have a captive audience, I have but one message. Fantasy-girl, don’t forget me, cuz I’m gonna be like that Demon God from your namesake and stomp on your mousy rear. Goodnight kids. [walks off, leaving Godiva there.]

[Godiva looks on at the departing Shiva.]

[Godiva]
Crikey, everybody needs to get stuff off their chest, don’t they?

[OWA Commissioner walks up to the stage and smiles.] Caged Fury is a concept that is about 5 years old. In fact, Caged Fury is the name of the very first PPV in the history of this federation. It’s nice to see that something like this can still be popular 5 years later.

[He turns and walks off the stage, as Godiva minces off the stage after him, showing her G-string underwear. Ed and Biff walk back to the podium.]

[Ed]
It looks rather interesting and hold on a second. I’m told we’ve got a feed as to where Danny Bouchard and Fantasia are now!

[We cut to Elaine who is next to a fuming Danny, beer in hand.]

[Elaine]
Danny, well all saw what happened earlier-

[Bouchard]
Ah, buckle it. That little [CENSORED] ruined my best suit! Hell, it’s my ONLY suit! You’re gonna pay to get this [CENSORED] thing sewn up you little [CENSORED]. If I weren’t such a nice guy I’d track her down…

[Fantasia flies into the camera shot and lands a forearm to Bouchard's neck.]

[Fantasia]
That’ll be unnecessary!

[Fantasia stomps on Danny's chest twice before the French-Canadian decks her with a lowblow. Danny gets to his feet and crunches his beer can into the back of Fantasia's head. Bouchard grabs Elaine Marks's microphone and lay several jabs into Fantasia's head and upper back. Danny picks Fantasia up by the hair and slams her face-first into a wooden door. The cameraman falls and the shot fades to black.]

[The scene goes back to Ed and Biff.]

[Biff]
Forget them and keep a camera on Godiva!

[Ed]
We must still press the night to go on folks. For our next award is for Feud of the Year and here to present it is none other than the OWA champion herself.

(Traci Lane, clad in an elegant black off-the-shoulder sequined gown strides from off-stage and walks to the podium to the applause of the audience. She takes a moment for the noise to die down, then speaks.)

[Traci]
Thank you, everyone. I’m here tonight to present the award for Feud of the Year. As everyone knows, our great sport would be nothing without feuds, for nothing else stokes the passions of athletes or the imaginations of the fans as much. The nominees for this award are…

[Video wall comes to life, and a number of attacks are shown.. before ending with the word "FUED".. voice over starts, as the video wall plays clips from each feud.]

Extremists vs. Ryker/Ryan
Mr. America vs. Virgo
Amazon Woman vs. Freddy Fever
Billy Smith vs. Davey Scott
Consuelo Salyards vs. Ed Salazar
OWA vs. LAW

[Video wall stops on the word "FUED"]

And the winner for 1997’s Feud of the Year is… Amazon Woman vs. Freddy Fever.

(Traci steps back as the Amazon Woman comes to the podium.)

[Amazon Woman]
It’s nice to be back in the spotlight.. even if only for a moment. If Freddy were here, I’m sure he’d like to thank all the fans who stood behind the both of us during this feud. Feuds take a lot out of the parties involved, and even though they give awards out for the best of them.. nothing ends a good feud like a handshake and a hug. Thank you.

[Both exit the stage as Ed and Biff walk back up to the podium.]

[Ed]
It’s good to see someone with a lot of history in the OWA like Amazon Woman come here. This show is about the past, present, and future.

[Biff]
Yeah, and a whole lot of good food and good looking women too.

[The crowd laughs. Ed looks over at Biff.]

[Biff]
I told you I’m better at impromptu than reading stuff written out for me.

[Ed]
For our next award is Best Newcomer and here is former OWA TV champion Asian Invasion to present the award.

(Asian steps up to podium wearing a The Way It Is T-shirt and jeans. He gives a few nasty looks to the fans in attendance, then begins.)

[Asian Invasion]
I’m here today not because I want to be, because they’re paying me to do it. This award is for the best newcomer of the year, but it’s not really an award, Urkel could be the top of this group. The nominees are:

[The video screen lights up as scenes from several of the newcomers are shown, before is stops on "NEWCOMER". The voice over starts, showing clips from each wrestler as they are announced.]

Godiva Rage
Loudmouth Donnie
Fantasia
Taleis
Wendy Ryker
Shiva
Danny Bouchard

[Voice over stops and "NEWCOMER" remains on the video wall.]

[Invasion]
And the winner is..

(He rips open the envelope and opens the card, then frown.}

[Invasion]
The /former/ TV Champion, God-Aw.. Godiva Rage.

[Invasion leaves the podium, leaving the award there. Godiva Rage bops up to the stage in a floor-sweeping crimson, off-the-shoulder dress. Surprisingly for Godiva it is very concealing, no deeply revealing cleavage, no backlessness. Her hair is piled up atop her head. She takes the award for best newcomer and smiles.]

[Godiva]
Me? The quickest new champion evah? You want to vote me the best newcomer to the promotion of a thousand names? Well, that’s a bit of all right, ain’t it? Wot, I didn’t know there were so many people about with any bit of sense in ‘em. Crikey, it kind a makes me wonder why I bothered to come up ‘ere so discreet like. Right? I mean like the people told me I should be presentable or some such, but I’m ‘diva Rage, eh? And you can’t teach new trash old world class now can ya?

[Godiva steps back from the microphone. She grabs her skirt and with two firm tugs splits it high up on the thigh on both sides.]

[Godiva]
(sighing contentedly) Oh yeah, that feels ruddy better it does. Newcomer of the year? Well, I guess I ‘ave to thank all the good people out there who ‘elped me make it to the top!

[Shrip, shrip and the sleeves of the dress come off for Godiva's powerful arms to show through.]

[Godiva]
Oh yeah, I’m feelin’ much more meself now! Oi, ya can’t ignore the Bri’ish Bombshell. With my victory I ‘ave ushered in a new era to this promotion, whatevah its name may be. I can’t be good and I can’t make these flowery lit’le speeches thankin’ all you wankers for your votes. After bleedin’ all, who the ‘ell else was ya gonna vote for? I mean, please.

[Godiva shakes her hair loose. She kicks her shoes into the audience.]

[Godiva]
Take that Monica Brant. You too you ruddy prude Davey Scott. Aw bleedin’ ‘ell, let’s just get it all out, wot?

[Godiva rips of her dress and tosses it aside, spinning around in her black minislip.]

[Godiva]
Well, this is a ‘ell of a lot better. You know, this is just the beginnin’ right. You know the stuff is gonna get even racier, more embarrassin’. This seems to be the year of degeneration. Well, it’s time for the degenerate Queen to shine. All y’all enjoy it while it lasts!

[Godiva winks once, blows a kiss to the audience and bounces off the stage. Ed and Biff walk back up to the podium.]

[Biff]
At least one thing tonight happened that was good.

[Ed]
Folks, I’m sorry but I’m being told we have to cut away again as Danny Bouchard and Fantasia are still at it!

[Elaine]
Danny Bouchard and Fantasia have been brawling from one side of this hotel to the other. We’ve lost the deposit, and we’re probably never going to be invited back here. I knew we should have gone for the bingo hall–

[Elaine gets shoved out of the way as the door opens and a bloody Danny Bouchard storms in. Fantasia follows, her white dress covered with Danny's blood and a room service tray in her hand. The tray doesn't stay there long as it comes crashing down on Danny's skull three times in quick order. After the third time she rests for a moment against the wall. Danny takes advantage of this and rams himself shoulder first into Fantasia's midsection. Fantasia doubles over and Bouchard looks off camera and gets a grin on his face.. He quickly grabs Fantasia by the hair and runs her face first into a glass container holding a fire extinguisher. Glass, which shattered upon impact, flies everywhere and Danny pulls Fantasia's head back, soaked now in her own blood. Danny grabs the fire extinguisher and sprays Fantasia with it turning the picture white.]

[The scene cuts back to Ed and Biff.]

[Biff]
Those two just need to take a breather and then resume the fight.

[Ed]
The night goes on. Here to present Best Heel?

[OWA Commissioner walks up to the podium]

[Commish]
Freddy Fever was scheduled to present this award, however, his physicians wouldn’t release him so he could be here tonight. So I’ll be presenting this award tonight.

The heel role in any wrestling organization is responsible for drawing heat. A really good heel can draw heat and still be respected by the fans and the other wrestlers. We’re not talking about cheap heat, we’re talking about real heat. The heat that comes from telling the truth, even if other people don’t like to hear it.

While the heel and face roles in wrestling are being blurred by so many wrestling companies, including the OWA, we feel that in the last year, we’ve had the line drawn for long enough to warrant offering this award this year. Who knows? We may not be able to present this award next year.

Therefore, your nominees for Heel of the Year are.

[Video wall comes to life, as many scenes are flashed through quickly, before settling on the words "HEEL". Voice over begins, while clips of each wrestler are shown]

Mr. America
Davey Scott
Billy Smith
Monica Brant
Asian Invasion
Danny Bouchard

[Video walls comes to a halt with the word "HEEL" on it.]

[OWA Commish]
And your winner is…

[He opens the envelope and peeks at the card, chuckling.]

Mr. America.

[An orchestrated version of "Highway to Hell" is played as Mr. America walks up to the podium. He leans against it and looks at the award.]

[America]
Best heel huh? Yeah, I pretty much figured I’d win this. Let me tell you why. I’m the one who’s able to draw the hate of people around here like it’s a second hand gift. You know it is. My blatant ego, arrogance, and attitude help give me that edge. Face it, if I wasn’t here things would be utterly boring.

[He leaves the stage]

[Ed and Biff walk back to the podium.]

[Biff]
Yeah, it’s good to know everyone hates him.

[Ed]
He does do a good job of it, but on the opposite side of the spectrum we have Anthony Hazard to give away the best face award.

["Charisma" by KISS blares out of the PA system as Anthony steps out from behind the curtain. Hazard is wearing a black suit with purple accessories, a chrome pin in the shape of TC on his lapel and he is walking with a chrome cane.]

[Hazard, scanning the crowd]
Nope. Don’t see anything I like.

[Anthony opens his jacket to reveal a black T-shirt with, in chrome lettering, the words "OWA RULES". He reaches into his inside pocket and pulls out an envelope.]

[Hazard]
I was asked to present this damn thing because I won it last freaking year. Here in this envelope are the results and winner of the Face of the Year award. But, in my personal opinion, not one of the nominees showed me any reason to give them this award. And even though I’d love to just smash it on the ground right here and now, I’m sure the league would yet again find some reason to suspend me or keep me out of the race for any title shots. Therefore…

[Anthony rips the envelope in half, pulls the two pieces of paper out and holds them together.]

[Hazard]
Oh great. This is who you pick to take my crown.

[Anthony drops the pieces of paper and walks off stage.]

[Ed walks over and picks up the card and reads] Traci Lane

(Traci grins as Rachel Ryan slaps her on the back. She stands and walks to the podium as the audience applauds.)

[Traci]
Well, here I am again! (Laughter.) I accepted an award earlier that involved being a role model, and this is part and parcel of that effort. Being one of the “good guys” — especially having started my career here on the opposite side of the fence — has been fulfilling in too many ways to completely list. It’s sometimes difficult to maintain one’s good nature and poise, as wrestling presents so many moments of emotion and tragedy, but with the help and support of the fans I’ve managed to do so. I’ve never once regretted making the decision to turn away from my previous behavior, because my former attitude was one of immaturity and selfishness. With that behind me, I’ve made personal and professional gains that far exceeded my expectations. It’s a path I believe in more strongly than ever. And as the new year rings in, expect much more of the same. Thank you.

[Traci Lane exits the stage as Biff and Ed walk back to the podium.]

[Biff]
Is it just me, or are the best heel and best face friends?

[Ed]
Yes they are.

[Biff]
Wouldn’t it make more sense for the best face and best heel to *hate* each other?

[Ed]
I suppose.

[Biff]
Then I may just have to come out of retirement and show Mr. America what is meant to happen when you are called a heel! You don’t walk around the fed, holding hands with the best face just because she has a pretty face. If I came out of retirement, he’d take a backseat to me as I showed…

[Mr. America, finally hearing Biff, stands up and spreads his arms out as if to say, "I'm right here."]

[Biff]
Yeah little boy, I would but thanks to this trick knee, that made me retire, you’re still safe so you can go hold hands with the best face!

[Mr. America sits down.]

[Ed]
You never cease to amaze me, Biff. Up next we have flash of the year to be presented by Ricky Hype.

[Biff]
Gee wiz!

[over the speaker system, the song "Mr. Speed" by KISS, plays as the spotlights converge on the right side of the stage. The music still plays but no one comes.]

[Ed]
Where?s Hype?

[again the music continues but there is no Ricky Hype.]

[Ed begins to sweat a little. There is a commotion in the upper balcony seating where the fans are. A roar from the crowd sends the spotlights high into the balcony to reveal Ricky "The SHOW" Hype standing at the edge of the guard rail with fans crowding all around]

[balcony crowd]
Ricky!… Ricky!… Ricky!…

[Ricky Hype is lit up like a Christmas tree, rays of shimmering lights reflecting off of his mirror studded tuxedo as usual]

[Ricky Hype]
Good evening everybody. An unusual place to be presenting an award from huh? This award is my favorite of them all. An interview is the only other way the fans can see their favorite heroes besides in the ring, making the ART! of FLASH! a fans award. That is why I chose to be up here tonight. That and it could also be dangerous to be on the stage depending on the winner. *big smile*

[Hype turns to the balcony fans]

[Ricky Hype]
Does everybody have a flash favorite?

[crowd yelling very loudly]
FEVER!… MR. AMERICA!… THE WAY IT IS!… FEMMES ALL THE WAY BABY!!!… YOU THE MAN RICKY!!… [CENSORED] [CENSORED] BOUCHARD!!!!….

[Ricky Hype, grinning]
Lots of choices. Who will be the winner? They will be the person or persons that use the art of flashing to their advantage, gaining an edge over the competition, creating situations they desire, and giving the fans an inside look at the OWA. All the nominees are deserving, but only one can win. Here are the nominees!

[Video wall comes to life, as many scenes are flashed through quickly, before settling on the words "FLASH". Voice over begins, while clips of each wrestler are shown]

Amazon Woman (OCW 11/10/96)
Freddy Fever (Holiday In Hell 1996)
Traci Lane (Endurance’s Evil Challenge 97) Femmes Go Shopping (OCW 4/11/97) Danny Bouchard does Hamlet {OCW 4/27/97) Mr. America (Halloween Horror 1997)

[Video walls comes to a halt with the word "FLASH" on it.]

[Ricky Hype pulls out the envelope and takes out the card]

[Ricky Hype]
And the winner of best flash is….

Danny Bouchard!

[Ed]
Umm.. Danny Bouchard is unable to accept this award at the moment.. we’ll make sure he gets it.. later.

[Ed hands the award to someone who takes it to the Commissioner.]

[Ed]
Bouchard is still at it with Fantasia from my understanding. Elaine?

[Elaine]
Yes Ed, we’re in the kitchen with a battered and bloody Fantasia. Danny Bouchard is trying to break the door down but she locked the dead-bolt when she came in.

[Danny is heard running at the door and the door comes off at the hinges. Danny Bouchard throws down the fire extinguisher he used to break in and goes on the attack. Fantasia tries a wild dropkick but Danny simply side steps her. Bouchard grabs a steel colander and dents it with Fantasia's head before tossing it, aside. Danny smirks, produces another can of beer, opens it, then turns to leave.]

[Elaine]
I think Bouchard has won this vicious brawl, Ed. If we’re lucky, maybe OWA won’t be sued for the destruction these two have caused. Fantasia is being looked after, and judging by Danny’s exit from the area, it seems he is relatively unhurt–

[We hear a high-pitched squeal comes from the direction of Danny Bouchard. The camera pans and we see the temporarily incapacitated Danny doubled over, clutching his, well, groinal area. A battered and bloody Fantasia stands on one leg over him, a meat mallet in her hand.]

[Elaine]
Oh my?!!

[Ed]
You?ve got to be kidding me..

[Biff]
Yeah, well they say the show must go on and we’ve got the best tag team up next and here to present that award are Mr. America and Taleis.

[Taleis and Mr. America both walk up to the podium. Taleis is dressed in a black suit with a purple vest, and he has an envelope in his hands. America is wearing a button-up white shirt, black pants, dress shoes, and a tie with a picture of Taleis and Mr. America which reads, "The Dynamic Duo". Taleis and America step up to the podium. Taleis lays the envelope down and begins addressing the crowd.]

[Taleis]
Well, folks, this award will be given to whatever tag team was given the most votes as being the best. Let’s have a look at the nominees…

[America]
Whoa, whoa, WHOA! Taleis, why do we need to look at the nominees for this award and why is this award even being given? I mean, let’s sit here and think about it for a minute. Reflecting on the past tag teams here in the OWA/UCP/OWA…er…well just the OWA, there wasn’t much to really brag about aside from Wendy Ryker and Rachel Ryan. Who else was there? If you think about it now, Wendy and Rachel are no more and really Taleis, we’re the only legit tag team left that’s worth a damn. We should be given the tag belts because no other team can work like us and damn it! We should have these awards, but I haven’t gotten enough of them tonight.

[Mr. America looks at Taleis with a serious look.]

[America]
Let’s just call ourselves the winners and be happy with it.

[Taleis returns the look, then nods.]

[Taleis]
Sounds good to me. Ladies and gentlemen, the tag team of the year award goes to, by default…Mr. America and Taleis!

[Taleis and America pick up the award and begin to walk off. However, they are quickly headed off by security, and the Commissioner of the OWA. The Commissioner points back up to the podium and is clearly bitching at America and Taleis. Taleis gets a disgusted look on his face and walks back up to the podium. Mr. America walks up to stand beside him, smiling slightly.]

[Taleis]
Well, I suppose we have to introduce the [Taleis coughs] real nominees now…but before we do…I just want to say something.

[Taleis looks over at the Commissioner.]

[Taleis]
…BITE ME, COMMISH!

[Taleis laughs, and the Commissioner rolls his eyes.]

[Taleis]
Ah, well…anyway, let’s get to the nominees. First up, we have the Chiefs, who consisted of Johnny Stallion, whom I kicked the crap out of, and Mike Mustang, who was turned on by his OWN partner due to the fact that Stallion was a screwup and cost his team the gold.

[America]
Yeah, I beat Mustang in nine seconds in my debut match in the OWA.

[Taleis]
NEXT!

[America]
We also have Rachel Ryan and Wendy Ryker, who are currently in negotiations to do a layout for Playboy as in “Mistress” Monica Brant. Folks, I urge you not to miss this issue either because I sure as hell won’t miss Playboy’s “The Ladies of the OWA” issue!

[The Commissioner's face turns red with anger. He walks over and covers the mic as he gives a stern warning to Mr. America. Mr. America smirks and moves the Commissioner's hand.]

[America]
People of the OWA, please give it up for the Commissioner, the man we all love to hate because he’s trying to squeeze you for every penny you have!

[The Commissioner glares at Mr. America again.]

[America]
Tal, I don’t seem to be having much success, so why don’t you give it a try.

[Taleis]
I thought you were doing pretty well. All right, the third and final nominee — the Extremists. Danny Maxx and Johnny Blades. When the OWA changed over to the UCP, the very first thing we saw was these two nimrods trashing the tag team belts…and yet, they have a 33% chance of being honored as the best tag team in the federation. [Taleis looks over at the Commissioner] Good call…[muttering] dumbass. You wanna do the honors?

[Taleis hands the envelope to Mr. America. Mr. America rips open the envelope and ends up ripping the little piece of paper in half.]

[America]
D’oh!

[The Commissioner throws his hands up in the air and walks back to his table..]

[Mr. America looks at Taleis.]

[Taleis]
Go ahead and announce the winners of this farce of a category so we can move on to something somebody cares about. [Taleis smirks.]

[America]
The winners are, the Extremists.

[As the "Extremist" by Joe Satriani plays through by the orchestra, the Extremists approach the stage. Maxx and Blades are wearing matching black and purple suits with tails. Each carries a walking cane and are escorted to the stage by two beautiful ladies.]

[Blades, taking the award in his hand]
Yep bro…this just goes to show one thing.

[Maxx, looking up from his award]
I know what your saying bro.

[Blades]
There never was and never will be anyone better then the Extremists.

[Maxx]
THATS RIGHT!!! You got that losers? We haven?t been in the league for over a half year or more and were STILL the greatest team you’ve got!

[Blades]
Make’s me almost wanna come back and kick some more ass. I mean, we never did lose OUR belts now did we.

[Maxx]
YEAH BABY!!! Course this bunch of slack jaw waste of human life probably wouldn’t even sign up against us.

[Blades, grabbing the mic]
If any of you have guts enough to take us on! We’ll be happy to come back and kick your ass!

[The Extremists high five each other and exit with their dates. Ed and Biff walk back to the podium.]

[Biff]
I can see the point that was made there.

[Ed]
The Extremists are looked upon as the best tag team in OWA history. Up to present Match of the Year.. this is “Mistress” Monica Brant.

[Monica Brant walks on stage to various cheers, whistles and an occasional boo. She is wearing, of all things, a tuxedo. It's apparently been custom made for her, since it is fairly form hugging and does have a plunging neckline. She steps up to the microphone and smiles.]

[Monica]
Over the course of a year, wrestling sees many a matchup that defies description. Of all these great matches, tonight, we will pick one to be match of the year. This event has dazzled us with the skill, determination and endurance of the competitors. It has also challenged us, as fellow wrestlers, to be that much better. And so, here are the nominees for the 1997 match of the year award…

[Video wall shows a quick barrage of different matches before the words "Match of the Year" pop up on the screen. Clips of the matches are shown as the voice over announces.]

Amazon Woman vs. Freddy Fever: The Final Battle (Casket Retirement Match) Traci Lane vs. Amazon Woman (Wheel of Torture Final 1996) Traci Lane vs. Anthony Hazard vs. Pretty Boy Monty: Ladder Match (Crime Spree) Caged Fury 1997 (Monty Wins) Amazon Woman/Stacks Coltrain vs. Hazard/Maxx/Shocker Cage Match (Holiday Hell) LAW vs. OWA: Elimination Tag Match (Behind Enemy Lines)

[Video wall completes the clips, and "Match of the Year" is worded back on it.]

[Monica]
And.. the winner is…

[She tears open the envelops and flips the card open, then grins.]

Amazon Woman vs. Freddy Fever: The Final Battle.

[The orchestra begins to play 'Staying Alive' by the Bee Gees as Amazon Woman makes her way up to the stage. She accepts her award from Monica and grins into the mic, as Monica turns to walk down the stage, Amazon speaks into the microphone.]

[Amazon]
Oh.. and Monica.. no hard feelings for that Jungle Mask thing.

[Monica laughs and heads back to her table with the other Femmes.]

[Amazon]
Seriously, being voted Wrestler of the Year last year meant so much to me. this year, this award means more than that. Because that match, is the match that I worked my whole life to be in. When I look back at my career and am asked what my hardest fought match was, this match will be that match without a doubt. All the title matches I’ve had are only a shade of this match. It’s unfortunate that Freddy Fever could not be here to accept this award with me, since he was the winner of that match. So.. Freddy.. wherever you are.. this one is for you!

(She blows a kiss to the camera and holds up the award before heading back down to her seat.)

[Ed]
Up next, the OWA Commissioner to present the Handler of the Year award.

[OWA Commissioner walks up to the platform and smiles.] If I may speak out of character, Handler of the Year is an award that states that a handler went out of his way for the benefit of the federation. Someone who unselfishly contributed time and energy without expecting any sort of compensation. Without people like this in our league, this league would only be a shell of what it is now. There were many nominated for this award, but only one could win. Before I announce the winner.. let me state that each and every one of you is vital to the success of this federation.

The winner for Handler of the year.. is.. Roger DeFurio.

[Ed]
Via satellite.. accepting this award, we go to Roger DeFurio..

[Video wall scene open at a university cafeteria, at a table in the corner where Roger, University of Tennessee college student, sits with his head on the table. He has on an orange sweater and waves his Orange bowl ticket in the air. He momentarily raises his head, gives a thumbs up, and passes back out.]

[Ed]
Anyhow, that leaves one more category. Here to present Best Wrestler is Amazon Woman.

[The orchestra attempts to play "Welcome to the Jungle" as Amazon Woman makes her way to the stage. She smiles before speaking.]

[Amazon]
I’m here to present the award for Wrestler of the Year. In our business, this is the top award a person can receive in their lifetime. Last year, I was lucky enough to win it along with Rachel Ryan. This award signifies that our peers thought our performance over the last 12 months was better than anyone else in the league. It’s with great honor that I am allowed to present this award tonight. Your nominees are:

[Faces flash one by one on the video wall before stopping abruptly at the words "Wrestler of the Year". Voice over begins to announce names as their faces pop up on the video wall]

Traci Lane
Mr. America
Consuelo Salyards
Freddy Fever
Executioner
Gustaffson

[Video wall stops on the words "Wrestler of the Year"]

[Amazon Woman opens the envelope and removes the card, then smiles before announcing..]

And your winner is… Traci Lane.

(Traci walks to the mic, a shocked expression on her face, as she’s handed the award. She pauses as the applause continues, taking a moment to gain her bearings. Finally, the crowd noise dies down, and she speaks.)

[Traci]
Oh my goodness…I’m not lying when I say I didn’t expect to win this. That’s not meant as false humility. So many of the wrestlers eligible for this were equally deserving…(Her eyes water a bit as she regards the award once more.) I don’t care what anyone says, this kind of honor is only possible through the support and encouragement of friends, and I have the best friends in the world in the Femme Fatales. Mariko with her quiet wisdom…Consuelo, who brings passion to everything she does…Monica, who despite what everyone thinks has always been near to my heart…Gus, whose faith and support in us has been a rock in unsteady waters…Alex, whom you know as Mr. America, whose unrelenting self-confidence in himself an others is so addictive…and Rachel, my best friend and closest confidante, who has been there for me through the good times as well as the bad. There are so many others I could list, but I’m not thinking too clearly right now, so if I leave you out, please accept my apologies. This is simply the greatest achievement of my career. I can’t think of much else to say except to thank everyone that’s stood behind me through this time, and between my old friends and my new ones, there’s no goal we can’t reach. Thank you.

[Traci Lane leaves the stage as Ed and Biff walk back to the podium.]

[Ed]
You can give all the OWA Superstars a hand as tomorrow they will take off their dresses and tuxedos and pull on their tights and trunks and go into battle live on PPV. “Deck The Halls” has promised to be an exciting adventure and we don?t want anyone to miss it.

[Biff]
Any word on Fantasia and Bouchard?

[Ed]
Let?s go and find out.

[Elaine]
This whole night has been insane, Ed, but this takes the cake. About two minutes ago Fantasia and Danny Bouchard stormed into the pool area and have been fighting all around us. I think they may have both lost it tonight, although having interviewed Danny, I can attest that it may not have all been there in the first place.

[Ed]
Where are they now?

[Elaine]
I’m not sure the last we saw then they had headed over to the video-

[An old Ms. Pac Man video game crashes to the floor with Danny Bouchard's body on top of it. Fantasia grabs the cord from the game and tries to choke Danny with it, but he slips out and sends her crashing into the broken video game. He grabs Fantasia's arm and drags her over to the pool. Danny Bouchard presses Fantasia over his head and tosses her into the pool. Fantasia screams in agony.]

[Elaine]
You all know what chlorine does to cuts! That’s gotta hurt!

[Danny does a cannonball right onto Fantasia. The two wrestlers try in vain to drown one-another in the pristine blue water of the hotel pool. After a few moments Bouchard climbs out of the pool with Fantasia, soaking wet in her blood-stained white dress, following closely.]

[Elaine]
Oh dear! Maybe it’s a good thing that dress got so bloody…

[The censors try and block out what's visible, but they're so busy trying to filter out Danny's language, the black bars don't do a lot of good. Lonely wrestling fans everywhere start making vidcaps. Bouchard goes out a side door and Fantasia jumps on his back, trying with all her might to choke out the Frenchman. Danny slams himself back-first into the brick wall, sprawling Fantasia to the grass.]

[Elaine]
First blood, now grass. that dress will never be white again!

[Danny looks down at Fantasia and then over to the parking lot, unsure what to do. Suddenly police sirens can be heard in the distance.]

[Bouchard & Fantasia]
[CENSORED]…

[Elaine]
I think it’s safe to say that we haven’t seen the last of this battle.

[Fantasia and Bouchard take off in opposite directions as the scene fades to a cheap Deck The Halls plug, then fades out.]

[Last week on OWA Primal Rage?]

[Ed]
The commissioner is coming down, and he is in the ring with Davey Scott..

[Commish]
Davey, at first you were a bit annoying, now you are outright obnoxious, you better watch your act or you shall be seeing the door pretty soon! I won’t have second thoughts about it either!

[The Commish is just looking in his face, and Davey giving him a cold stare, and all of a sudden, without much movement, Davey spits in his face.. The Commish wipes the spit from his face and motions towards the back.. several security guys hits the ring and subdue Scott, who fights it all the way.]

[Commish]
Get him the hell out of here.

[Handcuffs are placed on Scott's hands and he is literally drug from the ring and up the aisle, kicking and swearing. A shot at the face of the Commissioner shows him telling the ring announcer to keep the show going, as he heads up the aisle. The ring announcer allows the Commissioner to pass before getting into the ring.]

[Ed]
I’m.. in shock.

[Biff]
Hey.. Davey Scott must not like being employed.. that’s all I got to say about that.
===============
[Elaine Bryant]
Welcome to the Gospel Truth, the preview to Deck The Halls.. I’m Elaine Bryant, along with Shelly Marks.

[Shelly Marks]
And last week, Davey Scott crossed the line as far as I’m concerned. Spitting on the commissioner of this league.. my favorite employer.. my caring boss.. my..

[Elaine]
We get the point, Shelly..

[Shelly]
Oh.. right.. well, we have comments from the OWA Commissioner regarding the Cage Match at “Deck The Halls”.. so let’s go to those right now.
============
[OWA Commissioner sits behind his desk.. his office seems to have been decorated all Christmassy by an overzealous secretary.]

[Commish]
Thanks for joining me. I want to briefly address the situation that happened last week regarding Davey Scott. First, In all fairness to those who have purchased “Deck The Halls” on PPV, I am not suspending Davey Scott at this time for his actions last week. However, at Deck The Halls, he is scheduled to face Taleis inside a steel cage. The following stipulations have been added due to recent event:

1. If Davey Scott loses the cage match at Deck The Halls, he will be suspended from Western States Championship Wrestling for a period of at least 30 days. This means, no TV appearance, no showing up unannounced at the arena. Davey Scott will not have a speaking forum for a period of at least 30 days. If he shows up unexpectedly, he will be arrested and fired.

2. If Taleis loses the cage match, then he will be handcuffed to the cage and Davey Scott will be allowed to whip him with a strap 10 times. This is being instated on account that Taleis has seen fit to involve himself in Mr. America’s matches as of late.

That’s all the announcements I have for this week. I do want to wish everyone and their families a most happy holiday season from the OWA.
===========
[Shelly]
I have to say that the punishment fits on both occasions.

[Elaine]
I think that was a smart call on the commissioner’s part. Let’s take this quick break and we’ll be back with more of this special “Deck The Halls Preview Special”.
===========
VO: They called him the Sexy Boy..

[Clips of Davey earlier days where he is dancing around and flirting with girls..]

VO: They called him the Renegade..

[Clips of Davey pounding opponents into the chairs and tables]

VO: One man put disgrace to his name..

[Clip of Taleis smiling and laughing at the injured Davey Scott]

VO: But there is only one name this man [still on Taleis] will have to worry about..

[Superimposed lettering after a blank screen Davey Scott vs. Taleis.. Deck the Halls!] ============= [Elaine] One of the matches at Deck The Halls features a battle of the Enforcers.. let’s hear from one of ‘The Enforcer”s… Adam Sanchez.
=============
[the Enforcer stands in the locker rooms with his uniform pulled down around his waist. His hair is still a mere stubble.]

Enforcer: Rachel Ryan, we finally have our date in the ring, but you know, there seems a little something missing. …Ah! I know! There seems to be a little matter of which one of us is the real Enforcer. I have the legacy, but you seem to have the attention of the league right now. I am issuing you the same challenge I gave to Mr. America. Put your title on the line. The winner at Deck the Halls walks out the Enforcer. I know you’ll accept the wager Ryan. You’ve got guts, which is more than I can say about America.

[The Enforcer ushers the camera out of the locker room.] ============= [Shelly] Short and to the point.. I’m not sure if this can be arranged for at Deck The Halls, but if Rachel Ryan agrees, I don’t see why this can’t happen.

[Elaine]
Oh.. I totally agree. It’ll be an interesting contest, none the less, as one day these two will have to battle it out to see who really is “The Enforcer.”

[Shelly]
Another match set for the PPV, is for the Western States Television Championship. Asian Invasion gets his long awaited shot after his count-out win over former champion, Virgo a month or so ago. However, Virgo no longer has the title… Invasion will be taking on the new champion.. Godiva Rage.
============
[Fade in:

Godiva Rage is dressed in a red velvet and fur-trimmed Santa bikini, the WSWC television title draped over her shoulder. She stands in a cocky, bow-legged stance, showing off the power of her physique and its toned allure.]

Godiva: Merry freakin’ Christmas, ladies and gents. I know y’all been wonderin’ exactly wot’s up with the British Bombshell and her new Femme stance. I had to let all you know exactly why I had to do what I had to do. There ain’t nobody out there who is badder than me, right? But I don’t like rollin’ out without no posse. It ain’t no fun without a crew to giggle with and to pose and front with is it. Now, I understand there’s a little blighter named Asian Invasion who’s about the place tryin’ to take my title away. Oy, it’s just not possible, Yank. It really ain’t. Asian Invasion, there ain’t never been anybody that could invade the British Isles. And there ain’t nobody that can touch me or take my title away. So let’s put it simple and plain like this, I’m gonna mess you up, I’m gonna take your little Asian flu and Deck your Halls properly. And when you listen real close at night and you ‘ear those jinglin’ bells, it ain’t jolly ol’ Saint Nick comin’ to deliver you a gift. It’s your freakin’ teeth rattlin’ round in your ‘ead. Unnerstand? Ta! See, you soon. For Queen and Country, ‘diva Rage will never let anybody take her championship away. And that’s just a fact.

[Fade out]
============
[Elaine]
This should be an interesting contest, as Asian has been talking and talking for months now about regaining what he calls ?his? TV Championship.

[Shelly]
Asian Invasion is on a roll as of late as he has been undefeated in the last month or so. You can bet that Godiva Rage won?t take him lightly.

[Elaine]
I?m not so sure about that.. I think Godiva Rage takes everyone lightly. Though it could be an act.. I?ve not quite figured her out just yet.

[Shelly]
Well.. let?s go down to ringside with Ed and Biff for our first match.
=============
[Ed]
Thanks, you two.. we?re back at the Seattle Arena and we?ve got Mr. America coming up.

[Biff]
This guy.. has no idea what frickin? side of the tracks he?s on. One minute he?s playing nice-nice with the Femme?s.. the other he?s kicking the crap out of Davey Scott.

[Ed]
I guess he thinks that?s part of his charm or something. Let?s get some prerecorded comments from Mr. America before we see him in action.
==============
[The scene opens to Mr. America sitting at a local club, called the Bay, in Chattanooga. He has a bottle of beer in front of him on a table. A band, Gran Torino, plays in the background as people dance. He grooves a bit to the music.]

[America]
So, we have all these people that still insist on trying to get yours truly to brighten their day with saying their names. Well, let’s start at the top with the least important. Davey, you say I’m afraid of you but I’ve proven that to be a false in the past. I don’t care if you think I’m afraid of you or not because we all know you’re trying to find some means to make yourself look better after getting the wrong end of the stick not too long ago. You should’ve seen that one coming with all the stuff you’ve done lately. As for Taleis being my lackey, that’s not true either. If he was my lackey it would’ve been only him that took you out two weeks ago. There were three of us that did and who’d have thought we would help out Monica. Well, if a lady asks nicely you can’t tell her no and she had to throw out those puppy dog eyes, but I’m getting off the point here.

[Mr. America takes a sip of his beer and puts the bottle back on the table.]

[America]
Davey, you’re still that annoying little thorn that wants to cause me a bit of pain. Sorry, I took the thorn out a long time ago. You call my first win luck and I know it was skill. That’s the difference between us, Davey. While you were thinking you had me with that superplex, the counter had been planned for it and what better to counter it than a front-layout superplex? Yeah, you splintered the table and look who has his shot at the World title. You’ve proven how well you’re able to think under no pressure. You tossed the title you won into the trash. Hell, either you want titles or you don’t. Make up your mind, Davey, even if it is a hard thing for you to do. Ah, Virgo, my friend, mon ami we’ve got this whole five on five man survivor series match underway. You’ve got your team of mishaps and misfits. The throwbacks from the regional fed. Trinity ran Mr. America out of the SWF. Heh, how many times are you going to say that, Virgo? When I left the SWF Trinity wasn’t anything and they’re still not. The Underground leaves the SWF and suddenly you’re on top. What’s that prove? You were always a second rate, second best when it came to facing those with talent. For all the talk of chaos you spew, you still don’t seem to have the whole ideology about it down, Virgo. With law and order this is no chaos and disorder and we’ve seen what rules the state of the world. It’s been a good majority of law and order and things aren’t going to change for quite a bit. It’s been reiterated over and over, Virgo. You don’t know what you’re going up against just yet and I’ve got a new spice to throw into the mix for added effect. You’ve got your insurance policy and I just found mine. I’d rather have mine when that policy includes a deadly combo. Read between the lines Virgo and you’ll figure it out, but I’m betting money you’ll be left scratching your head wondering what ace I have up my sleeve until I decide to play that card. As far as being the president’s prized pets, I can’t help but to agree to that. That’s what you are when you’re talented and you can put people in seats. It brings him more money and makes him happier, thus he puts you on more shows. It’s a simple concept of supply and demand. The crowds demand me and pay money to see me, thus the president supplies me and I make the lives of all those that are able to see me.

[Mr. America finishes off his beer.]

[America]
So, Adam Sanchez the newest guy to want a piece of me. You came out as just you and that teared me up, Adam. I was so happy to see that you’ve found yourself but there’s something about me that keeps me a hell of a lot different from you. I love the glitz, I love the glamour, I love the lights, and I love seeing my name up on a marquee in nice pretty colors showing that I’m the main attraction. You obviously don’t know how to make use of such things. Don’t worry Adam, I’ll give you the time of day after the pay per view because that’s the most important thing on my mind right now.

[Mr. America stands up.]

[America]
Traci Lane, the OWA world champion and the person who I have to beat to get that title. All the respect between us and the friendship, to use and overdone cliche, is going out the window. You possess what I want and one of the many differences between us, Traci, is that I’ll stoop to lower levels than you will. Traci, you’ve held that belt for almost a year and you’re looked at as the best wrestler in the OWA and in the history of the OWA itself since Freddy’s injury. Like all things, it’s gotta come to and end sometime and I plan on being the catalyst that sets that in motion. Let’s face it, I’m hungry for what you have around your waist and you’re damn right I’m going to let that blind my vision. I’m only human and call it a character flaw, but I’ll call it a good business decision. You’re the only person I haven’t wrestled since joining the OWA over a year ago and we exchanged words when I first came in, but nothing ever came of it. Lane, I plan on ending that title reign you’ve had and running my own for a long time to come. After we’re done, maybe we can head out and get hammered for all time’s sake. Until then though, train and train for me like we’re not friends because that’s the way I’m coming into the match thinking.

[Mr. America heads off to the dance floor as the camera fades to black.] =============== [Ed] He seems rather focused to me, Biff..

[Biff]
Hey.. I?ve always said this guys got the potential.. but I?m telling he doesn?t know whether he?s coming or going..

[Ed]
Right now we have Mr. America taking on “Dancing” Joseph Connell.

[Biff]
Who?

[Ed]
Mr. America and Joseph Cornell are set to meet up.

[Biff]
“Dancing?”

[Ed]
Yes, I like to dance occasionally.

[Biff]
Yeah, but it must suck when you’ve gotta dance alone.

[Ed]
Let’s get to the introductions.

[Ring Announcer]
Introducing first! Hailing from Baton Rouge, Louisiana and weighing 360lbs. Here is “Dancing” Joseph Connell!

[Joseph Connell waddles down to the ring. He climbs in and starts to dance, much to the disgust of the fans.]

[Ring Announcer]
His opponent! Hailing from Washington D.C. and weighing 269lbs. Here is the man who believes himself to be America’s Perfection, Mr. America!

["Highway to Hell" by AC/DC plays as Mr. America walks down to the ring. He slides in under the bottom rope and goes right after Joseph Connell.]

[Ed]
America not waiting for the bell on this one! He levels Connell with a lariat as he turns around. America brings Connell to his feet and applies a clawhold.

[Biff]
I keep hearing him refer to that as some sort of signature move or somethin’. God knows what the hell he’s talking about. Anyhow, Connell gets to the ropes and America releases the hold. He whips Connell into the ropes and Connell comes back but is dropped across the top rope by a Hotshot.

[Ed]
America back to his feet again, but Connell with a low blow. He tosses America out of the ring. He jumps onto America with a plancha, but America moves right out of the way! America brings Connell to his feet and drops him across the guardrail with another Hotshot. He tosses Connell back into the ring.

[Biff]
America comes back in and runs into the ropes. He comes off and nails Connell with a flying forearm. He brings Connell to his feet, tiger driver and cover by America! One, two, Connell gets his shoulder up.

[Ed]
America with a whip into the buckle. He makes his way over.. a chop and he follows it up with another. A well placed elbowsmash to the chin of Connell and America doubles him over with a punch to the gut! He’s setting him up!

[Biff]
There’s the Leaping Piledriver! He goes for the cover! This one is over! One, two, Mr. America pulls Connell up. He’s shaking his head saying he’s not done just yet. He goes to lift Connell into the air.

[Ed]
He’s got him up into a Gorilla Press…PILEDRIVER! He just used Lane’s finisher to put Connell out and now he covers! One, two, America pulls Connell up again!

[Biff]
I’m beginning to like this useless display of violence. America with a double-underhook…and a piledriver again!

[Ed]
The ref’s calling for the bell and he’s ending this match for Connell.

[Ring Announcer]
The winner of the match because his opponent could not go on, Mr. America!

[Mr. America moves in towards the camera.]

[America]
Traci, the Gorilla Press Piledriver may be a potent finisher, but it’s not uncounterable. You may feel its effects yourself.

[Mr. America rolls out of the ring and walks back up the aisle.]

[Ed]
Mr. America letting Traci Lane know that he?s ready to take that title.
==========
[Elaine]
I can?t believe the intensity that Mr. America is showing.. he?s actually doing what he talks about.

[Shelly]
It wouldn?t surprise me to see him take that OWA Title from Traci Lane at the PPV.

[Elaine]
Don?t underestimate Traci Lane.. look what happened last year with Gustaffson. He beat her, then she came back a week later to regain the title and has held it ever since.

[Shelly]
One match that has everyone in the OWA talking is the big Battle Royal. The winner to be granted first position in the Endurance?s Evil Challenge.. let?s hear from one of the competitors right now.. this is Miguel Thunder.
============
[Miguel Thunder looks on, towards a ring. He's wearing a Santa hat, and a black trench. He looks on and smirks at the cameraman.]

[Miguel]
Ho, ho, ho, everyone. Santa Thunder is here to give people some gifts! First….

[He pulls out a gift from a nearby bag. It is wrapped in green paper.]

[Miguel]
This is for you, Asian Invasion. I’m sure you’ll like it…

[ He tosses it over to Asian's TWIRI set. ]

[Miguel]
Next, here’s my gift to Loudmouth Donnie. It’s some duct tape to put on his nonstop mouth.

[ He gives it to an official. ]

[Miguel]
Here’s something for Shiva. Her own contract to Midway for her to be in Super Ultra Mortal Primal Killer Rage Kombat 456.5 and get her skull eaten by Antman the Ninja. She seems to fit in.

[ He passes it to another official. ]

[Miguel]
OK, Mr. America, you aren’t getting away scott-free. You are getting something to cover your mouth with, too. Maybe some super glue?

?

[Flash Director]
Cut it out, you’re supposed to be talking ’bout the battle royal.

[Miguel]
Who cares? I’m gonna win, and that’s all.

[Flash Director]
Ummm… OK, I like your smug attitude.

[Miguel]
I take it your being sarcastic.

[Flash Director]
…

[Miguel]
Whatever.

[Miguel walks off]
=================
[Shelly]
Hrm. Whatever?

[Elaine]
Umm.. right. Another competitor in the big battle royal, plus, going at it with Shiva at Deck The Halls.. let?s hear from Monica Brant.
==================
(A camera travels down the corridors of the locker rooms, moving past half dressed wrestlers and scrambling officials. All too soon, it comes to a door marked “Monica Brant”. A hand comes out and knocks on the door.)

Monica: Who is it?

Camerawoman: OWA camera crew, Miss Brant. We’re here for your thoughts.

(There’s a sound of scrambling around behind the door, plus a few mumblings that sound vaguely like threats. Finally, there is a click, and a different voice.)

Voice: Come in.

(The door opens, and we see Monica Brant dressed in workout clothes. She’s seated in a folding Hollywood-style chair. Behind her is her Femme Fatale friend, Mariko, giving her a neck massage.)

CW: Oh, sorry, are we interrupting something?

Monica: You’d like me to say yes, wouldn’t you? (Monica smiles sarcastically.) So, do you have questions or would you like me to ramble.

CW: Rambling is always good for the ratings.

Monica: That explains why America is still so popular. (She and Mariko laugh.)

Mariko: Hei. If his fists were as fast as his mouth, I’d be worried about Traci this Christmas.

Monica: Anyway, time to talk. Of course, Shiva is first on my mind. I’ve got to admit, girl, I like your attitude. And I like your style. It’s a bit crude, but it’s got potential. Still, you’ve been making beaucoup waves here, and I’m in serious need of a challenge. Something to help me get my head on straight. That’s why I’ve asked Mariko here to coach me. She’s going to tell me everything she learned when you too fought. Right, Mariko?

Mariko: Yes. When we first met, you were the victor, Shiva. But I always learn from my mistakes. And now, with me coaching Monica-san, you will go down.

Monica: Couldn’t have said it better myself. Now, I seem to remember, listening to a few smart-assed comments awhile ago, something about me gaining weight. These same people, who shall remain as nameless as they are clueless, seemed to suggest I was loosing my athletic edge. That I was getting flabby. Well, take a good look, boys.

(Monica stands, taking off her over-shirt and then dropping her jogging pants. Underneath she wears a sports bra and a pair of underwear to drool over.)

Monica: Now, I know you’re all looking. So, tell me. Do you see an inch of fat on this body? Do you see anything besides pure muscle tone and perfectly defined, sculpted flesh? Do you? Of course you do!

(Monica sits back down, covering herself with a robe.)

Monica: I’m not an anorexic swimsuit model, I’m a professional athlete. I’m too busy staying athletic to worry about pleasing you clowns. (Monica shakes her head.) I’m glad I got out of the modeling business when I did. It’s all silicone and plastic wrap these days.

Mariko: (Sounding a little upset.)Ah…Monica-san? If you’re finishing posing, perhaps you have something to say to Davey Scott.

Monica: Hmmmm…almost forgot. Davey, as much as it may boggle your pathetic grey matter, you’re looking at one woman who will never meet her master. Know why? Because I refuse to let myself be ruled. You tried, and you failed. You think you left your mark on me, Davey? Well, you’re right, though, as you can see, the scars are already healing.

(Monica smiles, and leans forward, letting the robe open just a little.)

Monica: And, if you think you’ve left a mark, Scotty, it’s nothing compared to the dent I’ll leave in the earth when I piledrive your skull through the foundations. Because payback’s not a bitch, me bucko. It’s not even a Femme. Payback is…humiliation. And it often comes from the last place you would expect it.

(Monica leans back, closes her robe, and kisses at the camera.)

Monica: Kisses all!
==============
[Elaine chuckles]
Monica reveals more and more about herself every week here at the OWA.

[Shelly laughs.]

[Elaine]
We?re ready to go to ringside for our feature match for this week, which pits Consuelo Salyards against Executioner. For Shelly Marks, I?m Elaine Bryant and we?ll see you at the 1997 OWA Achievement Awards next week.. Happy Holidays to everyone!
==============
[Ring Announcer]
This match is one fall?
==============
[Myers]
Hi folks I?m back here in the locker room of the Crew trying to get an interview with The Executioner before his matchup tonight with Consuelo Salyards. there have been a lot of rumblings and a lot of noise coming from Executioners private room…. Wait here he comes now..? Executioner any words about tonight?s matchup..?

[Executioner]
Yeah, I got a lot to say, but its not about tonight?s matchup, its about our so called Champion ducking me..?? you know I used to have a lot of respect for Traci Lane, she used to be a fighting Champion, but now she has turned into a puppet to the powers that be….. Traci when I challenge you to a match,.. that challenge goes out to you, and you only… But no….. you decide your too good or too busy to bother with me..???? So you send out one of your puppets to take your place.? So be it Traci, if I have to go through the entire Femmes organization to get to you then that?s exactly what I will do… and I will start tonight by destroying Consuelo Salyards……..

{executioner throws down the mic and storms out of the locker room}

[Myers] Umm some pretty harsh words from the Executioner to Traci Lane, Lets see if he might have overlooked tonight?s matchup with Consuelo, back to you Ed and Biff
============
[Ring announcer]
Coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 129 pounds.. she?s a member of the Femme Fatale.. this is “The Latin Lover” Consuelo Salyards!!

[Salyards slaps a few hands on the way down to ringside, and then hops over the top rope and into the ring.]

[The arena lights dim as ?Motor City Madhouse" by Ted Nugent blares over the arena p.a., as the lights start to return to normal The Executioner is jumped by Virgo and Trinity.. they pound him a bit then toss him into the crowd, then slowly walk down to the ring.. Virgo gets up on the ring apron and points to Salyards, who motions for him to come on in.]

[Ed]
Executioner has been taken out by Virgo and Trinity.. and Virgo?s climbing through the ropes and Salyards is all over him.. she whips him.. no.. reversal by Virgo and Rigor with a trip on the outside and Salyards is down and Virgo nailing her with a series of elbow drops..

[Biff]
Looks like Virgo wants to take out Consuelo before the 5 on 5 tag match at Deck the Halls..

[Ed]
All of Trinity is in the ring.. Mortis and Mr. Shhh is laying in some boots to the Femme.. they pick her up and Virgo with a kick to the midsection as he scolds Salyards.. wait a second..

[Biff]
What the??

[Ed]
Here comes Mr. America, Taleis, Traci Lane and WHOA!! Here comes Gustaffson.. we have a brawl in the ring.. America is all over Virgo.. Lane clotheslines Shh over the top rope and goes right out after him.. and in the ring.. Gustaffson clamps a hand around the throat of Mortis.. the crowd is going wild..

[Biff]
Gustaffson tucks him under.. and DDT! DDT by the big guy!!

[Ed]
The brawl goes on, but we?re out of time for this week!! For the whole OWA Crew.. I?m Ed Bagel and we hope that everyone is having a wonderful holiday season!!

[Guy1, looking at doorway]
Hey man, that’s just what I heard.

[Guy2]
Yeah. Everyone knows it’s the UCP now.

[The camera zooms in on the doorway as two large, well built men step out of
the building. Both of them are wearing "Elite Rules" T-shirts and have
wrestling title belts around their waists. Zooming in more, it becomes
obvious they are none other then OWA Tag Team Champions, the Extremist.]

[Blades]
UPS??? No way! The OWA will live forever!

[Maxx, to Blades]
UPS? I thought they said RPS, or maybe CBS.

[Guy2]
Yeah, that’s it, someone bought em out I think.

[Maxx grabs guy2, picks him up and tosses him against the wall.]

[Maxx]
Shutup loser!

[Seeing this, guy1 scrambles to his feet and begins to run away. Blades
quickly looks over, takes off and catches guy1 with a Running Bulldog.]

[Cameraman]
Guys. Hey guys. It’s true, the OWA is now the UCP, trust me.

[Maxx]
Bob? Bob the cameraman?

[Cameraman Bob}
Yeah it's me.

[Blades]
Oh man, that means….

[Maxx]
That means. Were not champions anymore.

[Blades]
OH MAN!!! Then hell if I need this league anymore.

[Maxx]
You said it bro, lets motor. Maybe we can get in one of Shockers movies.

[Blades]
Yeah cool.

[The Extremist pass a large garbage dumpster as they walk out of the ally-way.

[Blades, taking off OWA Tag Team Champion belt]
Well, don’t need this either.

[Maxx, remove Title belt]
Yep. Might be worth a few bucks though.

[The Extremist laugh out loud as they toss the belts into the dumpster and
walk away]

[fade out]

——————————————————————

Hazard Flash
——————————————————————

[As the camera pans around, we see Anthony Hazard sitting in a chair at "Foxx Lake Resort". He is wearing blue jeans, tennis shoes, a black T-shirt and a chrome jacket.]

[Hazard, looking up from reading the newspaper]
UCP? Man, you guys are as quiet as the OWA was.

[Anthony folds up his paper, sets it on the table next to him and leans forward.]

[Hazard]
Ok, let’s just get one thing straight damn it. The only reason the OWA changed it’s name, was to yet again keep everyone involved with the Elite down and out of the title races. Well let me tell you this. I say screw it and why bother, half the time the damn league tiptoes around me and my boys requests anyway and the rest of the time they just ignore us all together.

[Hazard, standing up]
Well not anymore! I’m done with that goodie-goodie Goodwin and the Extremist gave up for a career in pictures. Fine! I don’t need em anyway, seems the only one I can count on anymore is “The Show”. He knows exactly what to do every time he gets in the ring, he has balls and is the second best wrestler there is. Course, he’s a little flamboyant, but hey, he kicks butt and I can’t think of anyone else I’d rather have on my side.

[Anthony backs up and starts to move toward the door]

[Hazard]
Get ready UCP. “The Legend” and “The Show” are back!!!

[Hazard turns around and storms off through the door. As he turns, the camera zooms in on the back of his chrome jacket. In purple writing, you see "TEAM CHARISMA."

[the scene chromes out]
———–
(Scene opens up with Elaine Bryant and Shelly Marks sitting behind the stage desk.)

[Elaine]
Welcome to the Gospel Truth, I’m Elaine Bryant..

[Shelly]
..and I’m Shelly Marks. Strong words from Anthony Hazard. He’s dumped Sir Goodwin and the Extremists are no more. We heard last week that the tag titles are being vacated and that a tournament will decide who the new tag team champions are.

[Elaine]
I’m a little impressed by the words of Hazard. For a long time, he was known as Mr. Goody Goody, but it sounds like maybe he’s going to get rid of that image once and for all.

[Shelly]
I’m not so sure that it’s such a great idea. Hazard has been known for his fan support. I have to wonder if he’ll lose that because of his new change of attitude.

[Elaine]
Sometimes you have to do what’s best for you and not what’s best for the fans.

[Shelly]
On another topic, let’s hear from a newcomer to UCP..
=========
[The scene opens on a golf course just outside a huge mansion, Loudmouth Donnie is getting ready for his next shot. Smithers, Donnie's butler is acting as caddy and has a larger than necessary bag over his shoulder.]

Donnie:
Now watch this shot, Smithers, a grand stroke from the master of the green.

[Loudmouth Donnie sets the golf ball and gets ready for his shot. He takes some time, causing Smithers to grunt impatiently while shifting the bag's weight on his shoulder.]

Donnie
FORE!…

[Smithers rolls his eyes. Donnie swings and the ball spirals off.]

Smithers:
You skill is quite magnificent sir. Why the bathroom’s Perkins stein window will cost several thousand to replace.

Donnie:
Well, um, I.. oh nevermind. Let’s get to the next hole.

Smithers:
But sir, you haven’t even a ball in play on this one.

[Loudmouth Donnie nabs the scorebook from his pocket and gives himself a birdie.]

Donnie:
Ahh, there we are. My skill is as magnificent as ever wouldn’t you say?

[Smithers rolls his eyes again while Loudmouth Donnie starts the golf cart. Smithers climbs in grunting under the weight of the large bag. Donnie motors the cart toward the next hole.]

Donnie:
Do you realize Smithers, that my life has been a constant trip back and forth from America to England? From this great sport, to that vast corporation that I own back home. I used to call wrestling a hobby, but how can one justify that term when one spends so much time with it?

[Smithers actually becomes serious for a bit.]

Smithers:
You’re so right sir. After all, money is one thing. But they’ve always said over the centuries that it can’t buy happiness.

Donnie:
And it’s all any of us can do to find such on this ruddy rock.

[The white cottony clouds continue their vigil over the sky as Donnie and Smithers putter around below in the cart. The cart passes artistically tended bushes. White winged birds fly from tree to tree. With the grand mansion in the background, the grounds has a slight look of paradise. Loudmouth Donnie gazes at his lands while the cart putters up to the next hole.]

Donnie:
I’ve got to let more people play golf here. The gardens have looked so empty as of late.

Smithers:
No to mention the mansion has felt a little extra drafty.

[Loudmouth Donnie smiles, knowing what Smithers is thinking.]

Donnie:
Lana Anderson? Now there was a true lady. It’s so sad things didn’t work out between us. There was a person who didn’t want to stay around me simply for my money. Do you realize of all my fellow athletes from the wrestling world, only two have ever even been to the mansion? I miss J-Man’s visits, but he’s been so busy as of late.

Smithers:
And Retribution, now he was quite a lout, but could be quite a gentlemen when he wanted to be.

Donnie:
Then there was good old Commissioner Redmoon from the CWL. It feels like it’s been so long.

Smithers:
A simple year can feel like centuries in this sport, can’t it?

Donnie:
Words of prophecy, old friend. It’s so true. Just spend several years in this sport and you feel like you’ve lived a thousand years, and dined with a thousand kings.

[Loudmouth Donnie chuckles wistfully as he reminisces about the past.]

Donnie:
Anyway, we’ve just about done it all, old friend. Been the competitor, the commentator, and even a league’s commissioner. Yet that ride off into the sunset is far away, there’s still much to do. We’ve got the UCP now, Smithers. More of the ‘merry’ talk between competitors, more competition, new challenges, and faces I’ve not seen in a long time.

Smithers:
Almost feels like a trip to Avalon, doesn’t it sir?

Donnie:
A grand trip to the paradise of the wrestling world? We shall indeed see. Still something feels necessary. Hmm.. Smithers, when we’re done on the golf course, call the stockholders from New York, plan a party. I’m finally getting back into the ring after doing so much else, and I feel like celebrating. If they ask why I’m throwing a party, just tell them it’s my mother’s birthday or some such nonsense.

[Smithers turns his head and looks back, as if the cart had puttered by something of importance.]

Donnie:
Oh yes, and call Mr. America and Taleis.

Smithers:
Um, sir?

Donnie:
You know… I’m tempted to call everyone in the league, just to see who might show up.

Smithers:
Um.. sir..

Donnie:
What, what?

Smithers:
The second hole is back that way.

Donnie:
Well, you ninny, why didn’t you say something?

[Smithers sighs as Donnie wheels the golf cart around and heads back the other way. The camera viewpoint doesn't follow them this time, just fades as they putter way on the vast grounds of the Trump Family Estate.]
========
[Shelly]
Loudmouth Donnie, new to UCP and it’s competitors..

[Elaine]
At the top of the show, we heard from Anthony Hazard.. let’s hear now from his second, Ricky Hype. Later on in today’s broadcast, Anthony Hazard will go one on one with Taleis for the UCP TV Championship.
========
[the arena video screen comes to life, a scene opening to a crowded downtown section of glitz-city itself, New York. Looking down the street you see a very busy club entrance, ala 1930's jazz club. There are limos lined up and down the lane dropping off many high profile individuals. Panning around to the front, the sign, in hundreds of purple bulbs, with a chrome mirror background, reads "CLUB CHARISMA - featuring Tony Dangerous and Rich Glamour!!"]

[scene shifts inside to a dimly lit, smoke filled room, jazz music playing from the stage across the club. Sitting behind a large round marble table surrounded by a lavish leather booth are the figures of "The Legend" Anthony Hazard and Ricky "The SHOW" Hype. Both are dressed in 1930ish pin-stripped zoot suits, pocket watches, and fedora hats.]

[a very, very, very, large fellow, ala, very large fellow, walks up to the table.]

[Very large fellow]
There is a man calling himself “Sparkling” Sheridan Cree at the door wanting to see Mr. Dangerous and Mr. Glamour, sirs.

[Ricky Hype]
Thanks Vinnie, tell Mr. Cree they will meet him in the back.

[as Hazard and Hype exit the booth, the scene chromes out]
=========
[Both commentators blink silently and look at each other and shrugs]

[Shelly]
Two more names have been signed for The Wheel of Torture tournament, one of those names happen to be Asian Invasion. Let’s hear this week’s edition of “The Way It Is”
=========
(The scene opens to show Asian Invasion lounging poolside in a plush mountain resort. The camera goes through several screens of him playing golf, working out, and dancing with the Spice Girls on top of his “The Way It Is” bus. It then cuts to Asian, inside the bus.)

[Asian Invasion]
Welcome again to The Way It Is. I’m back to give you the definitive word on UCP action, as soon as there is some. We’ve hardly restarted here in the UCP, and still I’m being denied my honest right to win back the title that has been mine for months, the TV Title. Why is the first match in the UCP for it, but it’s between Taleis, and ANTHONY HAZARD??? If I remember correctly, the former OWA had agreed to give me a shot at it, the a four corners match. Actually, hold on, run the video…

(Camera cuts to shot with June 8 in the upper left hand corner)

[Commissioner]
I have no idea what’s going on here, but I’ll tell you this.. I don’t like it.. I don’t like it at all. Consider this belt held up.. Next week, Virgo, Taleis and two more contenders.. Asian Invasion and Rachel Ryan will meet in the ring in a four corners match, with the winner to come out with the OWA TV Championship.

(Back to Asian Invasion)

[Asian Invasion]
See!!! The title was held up!!! Taleis has no claim as TV champion, plus, where does Anthony Hazard come off getting a title shot. Then, at the Pay Per View, Virgo is getting a title shot??? He keeps talking about how everyone thought he would be a useless jobber, well you are Virgo.

Then, we still have Mrs. America. You know, it really makes me ache when that you can walk around with Bob, that makes you wonder doesn’t it, and talk all you want about how you lost some weight, and your fit. Last time you wrestled, you wound up in the hospital, I plan on sending you back.

So, until next time, that’s The Way It Is.
===========
[Elaine]
I’m not certain if Asian Invasion hit his head one too many times, or if he ate too many Twinkies as a child, but that match did take place, and Taleis got the pinfall on Rachel Ryan to become the TV Champion.

[Shelly]
The other name thrown in to the tournament for the Wheel of Torture is none other than Shogun.
===========
[Shogun]
Well, it looks like Halloween Horror is just around the corner…What I’m going to do(from the goodness of my heart) is to accept the first Challenge I receive for the wheel of Torture?s revenge…Any moron who has the guts to challenge me, will be dealt with in good Japanese Tradition….That means you will be Jap Slapped!!! So come on people and bring it on!!! Oh yeah, Asian Invasion don’t bother challenging me….I’m tired of beating your ass!!!! THE MIGHTY SHOGUN has spoken!!!!!
===========
[Shelly]
Shogun now part of the Wheel of Torture Tournament.

[Elaine]
Let’s go down to ringside.. Ed Bagel is there along with Biff Franklin for this special matchup.
===========
[Ed]
It’s great to be back on the air. I’m Ed Bagel and joining me is Biff Franklin..

[Biff]
Like I’d let you be out here by yourself.. your mommy know you’re up this late?

[Ed]
Uh-huh, Biff, sure. Next up, we’ve got one of the more…controversial members of the UCP.

[Biff]
Not to mention one of the better looking ones.

[Ed]
So, with no further delay, let’s go down to ringside…

[Announcer]
This next bout is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, to my left, weighing in at 123 lbs., and hailing from Paris Island, South Carolina. She is GI LIEA!!!

(GI is dressed in military fatigues and has her hair done up in some familiar-looking braids. She poses for the fans, who give her a minor pop.)

[Biff]
These new wrestlers keep getting crappier and crappier…

[Ed]
Hey, give GI some credit. She’s the first woman to graduate…

[Biff]
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It’s bad enough we’ve got this new crappy name, and this new crappy logo, and we can’t even watch huge wrestlers pounding little punks into the mat anymore….

[Ed]
Biff…shut up!

[Announcer]
And, her opponent…(”Superbitch” by 2 Precious plays). Hailing from Toronto, Canada. And weighing in at 156 lbs. Here is “Mistress” Monica Brant!

(The crowd boos as Monica struts down to ringside. She wears a tight, black leather outfit that seems more suited for a catalog then a wrestling ring. She blows a kiss to a few fans as she enters the ring.)

[Ed]
And Liea jumping Monica before the bell!

[Biff]
Hey, maybe this GI chick is alright after all!

[Ed]
Chick?

[Biff]
Liea nailing Brant with lefts…and now a huge right! And a karate chop! Monica down to the canvas! Maybe all the rich living has put Monica off her game.

[Ed]
Wouldn’t surprise me. Now Liea waiting for Monica to get up…SUPERKICK! Monica back down. Damn, she’s being walked all over here. GI may just shoot up to a top contender in her first UCP match! And now, Liea picking Monica back up. Looks like a suplex coming up…

[Biff]
Blocked by Brant! And now the former fashion model grabs Liea…powerslam! GI planted and now being picked up by Monica…clothesline! And now Monica stomping away on Liea!

[Ed]
That temper that’s gotten her in so much trouble might just have flared up! Monica picking up Liea and sending her to the ropes…another clothesline! And a legdrop! And now Monica flipping Liea over…reverse chinlock.

[Biff]
Monica using her mat-wrestling skills for the first time in a long time. She’s usually a power wrestler. And Monica releases the hold and picks up GI…piledriver coming up, she…nails it! And we know what’s coming next!

[Ed]
Monica waiting while Liea twitches on the mat. GI seems to be getting up…Fashion Statement by Brant! Liea reaching for the ropes…doesn’t happen! She’s going…the ref is checking…and he calls for the bell! Let’s get the word!

[Announcer]
The winner of this match…”Mistress” Monica Brant!

[Biff]
And Monica still has the hold on! The ref warning her…and she lets it go. GI Liea had a good start there, but Monica came back strong.

[Ed]
And now Brant going outside the ring…she’s got her purse! Oh-oh, the ref better stop her.

[Biff]
The ref comes over, and Monica threatening him with that purse! Now Brant goes over to the unconscious GI…and undoes those braids! And now with a pair of scissors…and some hairspray…Oh man!

[Ed]
That’s despicable. Monica styling GI’s hair while she’s unconscious…this is just horrible.

[Biff]
Man, and I thought that Beck guy had some whacked out hair. Well, maybe Liea can get a job as a punk rocker!

[Ed]
Folks, let’s get back to the UCP studios while officials get Monica out of the ring.
===========
( Billy Smith is sitting in a corner of his apartment, he looks different. His hair is longer, he has more tattoos and lots of piercing. He is wearing all black and has a blank look in his eyes )

[Billy Smith]
Here I am, alone once again, just like all of the great heroes of our time before they died. They like I were misunderstood and disrespected as they tried to fit into this human cesspool we call reality. Ever since I was a young child, I was always different from the insiders, they learned their A B C’s while I had my head buried in my hands contemplating whether to eat my lunch or slice the school teachers neck… I did neither. When I grew up and eventually went to high school, I was again trying to seek acceptance from my peers, but again they mocked and disrespected me……you know, it right what they say those years were the best years of my life. I plan to make the OCP the worst days of the rest your lives. I want you to make me feel the pain I know that I rightfully deserve when you face me. I want you to inflict agonizing destruction against this temple that I call a body. Why……you ask, because if you were born on this planet you deserve to be tortured.

Feel my pain UCP… Feel my pain.
=========
[Elaine]
Quite a transformation from Billy Smith. He’s never really gotten any respect from the other wrestlers here in the league.. do you think this change will make a difference?

[Shelly]
Billy is a former TV champion, but even so, for some reason, no one gives him any credit. Almost like who we’re going to hear from next..
=========
[Standing in the studio, in wrestling attire, but still on crutches, no glasses, but wearing the jacket Saying "Squad" on it. ]

Davey: Oh, great.. Consuelo Salyards have decided to stay on the UCP. Am I happy? Not really, but let me make myself clear. You know, UCP been trying to get me into Halloween Horror, but why go to a tournament? This is how stupid everyone is, that they want me to fight in the Wheel of Torture competition. Doctor got to be nuts. I spent weeks of recovery from knee surgery, and they want to throw me in a tournament? Jeez, should I just send a law suit as well? No, I will be kind for once. Hell will kindness, I am going to give hell to all. The first person I am going to give hell to, is Consuelo Salyards. You may of gain a couple of pounds to qualify, whoopee do. In order to maintain the standards within the Federation, I had to lose 50 lbs. That right, I weighed 300 lbs., and I drop 50 of those lbs. Consuelo, you are probably wondering, with an injury, how did you lose all those pounds. You are looking at the most dedicate man, and someone who put more time in a lose cause for the longest time. That cause is professional wrestling. Now, someone will pay. My first victim shall be Consuelo Salyards, and her Internet Title. At Halloween Horror, I am challenging you to a title match, in a cage match. But for the event, I like to add a stipulation. You see, you all used to these cheesy cage matches where you climb over, and you plop over, and you land on your feet. What a fake match. Here is a real match for a real man! The objective is the first person to throw the other person over or out of the cage. It called a “Man of the House” match. I don’t care if you are a man or a woman, I am the master of that type of match. I tossed someone over the 15 foot cage, and they sailed all the way down and landed on the table. So you know, when you accept this match, I am all business. Sit down, you might want to think about this first. Cause it called the “Man of the House” for a reason, so you better be ready for the beating of your life!

[Fade]
=========
[Elaine]
Davey Scott calling out Consuelo Salyards.. she is the baddest of the bad in the UCP and he’s not the only one calling her out.

[Shelly]
That’s right. Let’s hear from bachelor number 2.
=========
[scene opens on the new UCP mat set up in the arena. The lights shine only on the center of the ring, and not a soul has entered the gates yet. The Enforcer stands within the circle of light adorned in his new uniform: a wrestling singlet(opposing blocks of red and black above and below the waist, i.e. red and black harlequin pattern) and a leather duster whose shoulder is adorned with the all too familiar chain.]

Enforcer: The OWA has upped its standards, up yours. …I’m here and I’m not going away. I was the toughest wrestler then and I only get tougher. Ms. Salyards, you were saved from a shame filled defeat at my hands by the front office’s reorganization, but now I’ve come to collect. I want my title shot! The very day the OWA ceased operations I was scheduled to challenge you for the title, but things changed. I’m better than before Salyards. The belt has been my focus for three long months of training. The Enforcer is calling you out. Are you tough enough? I’ve got some new tricks up my sleeve, and I’m just dying to use you for a little practice.

SALYARDS COME GET SOME!

[the light goes out, leaving the arena dark and silent]
==========
[Shelly]
Now, Consuelo has got to be feeling like the most popular girl at the dance, but we all know how this game is played.. so let’s hear from Bachelor #3.
==========
[Executioner]
Halloween Horror, The perfect setting for the Executioner to reclaim some gold.. It has been a long 3 month wait, but I have worked harder over these past 3 months then at anytime in my career, including my Championship run.
It will be good to get back into some real competition, to get the juices flowing again, and to see and beat some of the talent around the UCP, Which brings me to Consuelo Salyards. Consuelo I believe we had a match signed before our little hiatus, and I cant think of a better wrestler to go up against in my return then you, I for one am glad you decided against retiring because we have some unfinished business to take care of, so consider this a formal challenge for your belt, or if you don?t think your up to par yet I will be glad to have a non-championship match with you first, but sooner or later we will meet for that belt you now possess, and I plan on bringing it back to the Crew’s mansion.
=========
[Elaine]
There you have it.. later on we’re going to hear from Ms. Consuelo to see which Bachelor she’ll be picking for Halloween Horror.

[Shelly stands to get up..]

[Elaine]
Where are you going? We’re not done yet..

[Shelly]
Oh.. I have to *leans into whisper*

[Elaine]
You didn’t go before the broadcast?

[Shelly]
No.. and besides.. Mr. America is up… so I probably have time to run down and grab some fast food as well.

[Elaine]
Oh.. then.. I’ll come with you..

[They both stand and walk out]
=========
[UCP cameras are outside a bar in Seattle, Washington. It starts raining,
however, and they quickly move inside of the building. Once inside, you
see a fair-sized crowd of people, watching Monday Night Football or some
of those other, less known wrestling programs. The cameras pan around the
bar, apparently looking for someone. They spot a familiar face -- none
other than current UCP Television champ, Taleis. The cameramen quickly
thread their way to the crowd and approach him.]

Taleis [to the bartender] Two, please.

[Taleis is clad in street clothes, specifically, a black UCP T-shirt and
blue jeans. Taleis looks over and notices the camera. He grins, and
motions them over.]

Taleis: [noticing the fact that the cameramen are soaked] Lovely weather
outside, isn’t it? I suppose you guys aren’t here to talk about that,
though. I’m here with a friend, but before you guys see who it is, I’ve
got a few things I’d like to say. Looks like the UCP wants to keep their
TV champ busy…I’m already signed up for two title defenses, and we
haven’t even had a card yet. That’s all right, though. When I won this
belt on June 15th, I knew that there’d be a lot of work involved in
actually KEEPING it. This week, it’s Anthony Hazard…that old fart
hasn’t got a chance in hell of keeping up with yours truly, much less
BEATING me. Stick to what you’re good at, old man — if you can find
anything.

[The bartender returns, carrying two bottles of beer and a couple of mugs.
Taleis grabs 'em and starts through the bar, talking as he goes.]

Taleis: Then, at Halloween Horror, I get to defend against an old
nemesis…the man who I won this belt from in the first place — Virgo. I
don’t know whose ass you kissed to get this shot, Virgo, and I really
don’t care. The bottom line…[Taleis smirks at the camera] is that no
matter how long that match goes, the ending is marked in stone…and after
I drive you face-first into that mat with the military press diamond
cutter, you’ll wish you had just stayed in bed that morning. That’s a
promise.

[The camera pans to the left to show Mr. America with his feet propped up
onto the table. A bottle of Ice House sits in front of him.]

[Mr. America]
So, who would you have expected as Taleis’ friend? By some work of God,
bet you were hoping someone other than me, but no dice. Back in May, you
saw the alliance form between myself, Taleis, and Tom. Well Tom is gone,
but the other two still reside here and that’s trouble enough.

[Mr. America picks up his beer and takes a sip.]

[Mr. America] So, it seems that both Monty and Virgo have something to say
to me. I’m glad to see you have some sense on your head Virgo because
that Equalizer crap just doesn’t sell that well here. You know that if
you had brought it here you would have been ridiculed as well. As for the
Underground and your SWF titles. Do I need to bring up the fact that you
joined something as lame as the Foreigners? God I hope not because that
was a new low even for you. The saddest part was those two idiots dropped
you like a bad habit. As for your SWF International Title. Just a fourth
rate wrestler holding a second tier belt for all of the third world
nations. Nothing more, but a whole lot less.

[Mr. America puts his beer back on the table.]

[Mr. America]
Wow, so you beat me for the TV title, Virgo. There’s still a difference
between us. While you’re trying to back the TV title, I’m looking higher
than that. I held it once and I’m done with it, but for right now. I’ll
worry about you getting back into the ring with me and Halloween Horror.
I aim on winning that, but that’s a ways off yet. As for you Monty,
unsettled business is what we have. Yet, you and the rest of the Crew
housed Virgo. You still want everyone to believe that the Crew is still
the best alliance here. Monty, wake up already. You’re living in dream
that you needed to wake up for a long time ago. The Crew is a relic.
Hold onto your past glories and watch as I shatter what pride you have
left in the ring. You want a match, I’m there.

[Mr. America looks over at Taleis.]

[Mr. America]
I invited an old colleague of mine to meet us here. He should be showing
up soon.

[Taleis takes a seat at the table, putting one beer aside, and the other in
front of him. He pops it open and takes a drink.]

Taleis: Ah…much better. Old colleague of yours, eh? Hope it isn’t any
of those other Underground wankers. For reasons which should be fairly
obvious, we probably wouldn’t get along, and I don’t really feel like being
arrested for starting a bar fight just now.

[Taleis grins at America from across the table, then takes another drink.]

Taleis: Your friend better get here soon, though, or his beer’s gonna be
gone before he even gets to take a drink out of it…

[Suddenly there is a commotion at the front. A man standing about
6'1" is demanding that a bouncer take his coat and hang it up. The
7' bouncer is staring down at the man in disbelief.]

[Man]
Peasant! Just what is your job in this serf den? To stand around and
hold up the wall? Now, please *try* to use that brain cell and hang
up my coat. There’s a good man.

[After the man shoves his coat into the bouncer's hands, and walks
off, the bouncer grins evilly and hands the coat to a drunk headed
out the door. The man who has just lost his rather expensive coat,
walks into the bar with his nose somewhat wrinkled.]

[Man]
Bah, what do they do here? Smells like a riverside warehouse.
I guess even lowly peasants need to have some fun. I can’t believe
Alex comes here. Speaking of which..

[The man looks around and spots Mr. America and Taleis.]

[Man]
Ahh, there you two are.

[The man walks over. Mr. America looks up at the man and smirks.]

[Mr. America]
Hey Donnie. Always one to make a scene I see and by the way. The bounce
gave your coat away to some drunk who headed out the door.

[Mr. America points at Taleis.]

[Mr. America]
This is Taleis. I told you about him.

[Taleis glances at Donnie, then nods.]

Taleis: Good to meet you…I think. So, anyway, what’s this all about? I
know why I’m here, I know why you’re here…what’s he doing here?

[Mr. America]
Like I said, I want to see what side of the fence he stands on. We had no
real problems back in our day when we knew each other. I had heard he had
signed with the UCP and I asked him to come here.

[Donnie]
What side of the fence I stand on? Well, so far I’ve have no foes,
and I’m hoping to make a few allies. So, what have we got? The same
decadent place I visited last year? Still have the so-called Elite
running around with exactly the same members, and the Femme Fatale
running around… with exactly the same members? With all the
decadence, everyone settling into a habitual routine, one is not
surprised the OWA has undergone some changes. Interesting how
MP Inc chose here to move to. What’s the story on them? Still running
around with exactly the same members as when they were in the UEA?

[Donnie shakes his head.]

[Donnie]
Most people here should remember me, although it’s been quite a
while.

[Taleis grins slightly.]

Taleis: I don’t think MP, Inc. is really around anymore. Masked Plague
took off…there’s three remaining members I believe, and they decided not
to call themselves MP, Inc. anymore. Most of those fat-asses couldn’t have
stayed in the fed anyway…and I’d have to say we’re all better off without
them. The Elite? Most of their components…Anthony Hazard, Ricky Hype,
and Shogun…are still here, but Hype was spouting something about ‘Team
Charisma’ last I heard from him, so I’m not sure about their status either.
As for the Femme Fatale…as far as I know, Traci and the old man here
[Taleis gestures towards Mr. America] are pretty good friends, so I don’t
really have any plans to pick fights with them.

[Taleis grins.]

Taleis: As for remembering you…well, I’ve heard about you from
America…don’t they call you ‘Loudmouth’?

[Mr. America takes another sip of his beer.]

[Mr. America]
Well Taleis, actually. Masked Plague and his crew came here. The Mosher
got injured and then Masked Plague and Kodiak took off. Big Russ, Crimson
Scorpion, and Brett hung around. I took out Scorp and then Russ left.
Brett didn’t come back after the hiatus. As for the Elite. Shogun isn’t
with them, Taleis.

[Mr. America smirks.]

[Mr. America]
Hazard and Hype are here. Shocker and the old tag champs didn’t come
back. The Femmes are here with Consuelo and Lane. The Crew is still here
with Monty, Stacks, and Shogun but that’s about it. Most of the alliances
have fallen from their former glory, but then again. Some of the old guys
may still be lurking in the background. Donnie, you want allies and Tal
and I have been looking for someone to cover Tom’s old spot. That’s why I
called you. Yeah, I heard you use to be here awhile back. Then again,
the first time I remember hearing about you was the CWL and then the UEA.
Tal, they do call him “Loudmouth” and for a very good reason.

[Donnie]
Well, I wasn’t here as a wrestler, as I had no official contract, but
I have one now, and it’s about time I got back in the ring. But I do
now, and the Greatness will shine again!

[Mr. America holds up his beer for a toast.]

[Mr. America]
I’ll drink to that Donnie!

[Donnie]
To greatness it is!

Taleis: Donnie, America, and me…a more motley crew you won’t find in
the OWA. We can talk the talk…and UCP, you already know we can walk the
walk. To greatness, gentlemen…

[The three men toast as the camera fades out.]
=========
[The studio is still empty..]
=========
[Four beeps sound off as a grey image of the California skyline appears. Then a flash of light appears, and the picture is in motion and in color. The Birds-eye view heads over a street, and quickly zooms down to a guy in a black shirt and shorts with blonde hair. The POV changes to the man's face, revealing Miguel!]

MT: Well, I see OW– Er, UCP has decided to have ME over for Another chance at a flash, so here goes. First things first, I am sick of being known as Miguel Thunder, the jobber. I’d like the respect I need, and if you can give me it, more power to you. If not, then I guess the tables will turn. You see, I’ve gone through a pupa stage while the federation was revamping, and changed totally, from my looks, to my personality. Even the name I prefer to be known as changed. I’m not the same man, nor will I ever be! If you liked my boyish attitude, you’ll be shocked in the next few weeks. I’m writing a new chapter in the book of my life, where I’m officially becoming Miguel Leal.. Say your last good-byes, if you have any, to Miguel Thunder.

[He smiles]

[As the screen Fades to Grey, Miguel's new logo comes on screen
==========
Ed: We're back for more action, getting ready to see the big return of Miguel Thunder! Over to you, Biff.

Biff: Well, this is quite an uproar for such a horrible wrestler! Wait, the lights are dimming, and the Announcer's coming up. I guess he submitted!

Ed: I doubt it, Biff!

Announcer: This is the moment you've all been waiting for! Introducing first, from Okinawa, Japan, weighing in at 217 lbs., here is JOBA Michinoku!

<>

Announcer:

<>

Biff: And here comes the cheapo of the day!!!

Announcer: We need no introduction for him, this is MIGUEL THUNDER!!!

Biff: OK, over to you Ed. I'm not commentating!

Ed: OK. Miguel throws Joba in the ropes, spinkick to the head! Joba falls to the ground, and gets up. Man, I heard that SMACK. Miguel stalking him, two kicks to the head, he goes down again. JOBA's had enough. He walks out of the ring, getting a chair. He sets it on the ground, grabs Miguel by the hair, and drags him out.

Miguel: Get off!

Ed: Miguel Shoves him over the top rope, JOBA hits the chair. He does the Asai Moonsault onto Joba. More pain inflicted there..

Miguel rolls JOBA into the ring. Ow, is Michinoku bleeding! Clothesline to the throat. Joba goes down, out like a light. Setting up for the Asai Moonsault. JOBA moves a little, Miguel misses, but gets up. Joba slowly gets up, panting. Ticked, he grabs the bloodied chair and swings it at Miguel. He ducks, and the ref's hit over the head. Miguel grabs it from him, hits him three times in the nose, then jabs it in his gut. Joba's out like a light, Miguel throws it out, revives the ref. Pinfall by Miguel. 1.. 2.. In the ropes. Joba's not moving. Miguel drags Joba to the middle of the ring, Ultimo Moonsault. 1... 2... 3! This match is over.

Announcer: The winner of this match, by pinfall, is Miguel Thunder.

Biff: So, Miguel's gained an attitude since his Hellish battle with Blackout at our last PPV. Roll the clip!!

< Face scene.>>

Biff: HAHAHAHA! So good. Soooo good, I love that scene!

<>

Miguel: Listen up, you sadistic little s***.

<>

I've had enough of the crap everyone's been giving me in the last year, so I've changed, to suit the little arses that made my life a living Hell since the LAW/OWA stint. I hope you're happy that my life is a f***ed up little one, Biff, because I'll make sure you have the same one as mine.

<>

Ed: Well, that was... Interesting. Back to you, guys.
=============
[Elaine and Shelly are munching on some KFC Hot Wings.. as the scene comes up with them]

[Shelly]
Ack! Hardcore action from Miguel Thunder. Let’s hear from the man who will be trying to take the TV Title away from the champion at Halloween Horror.. this is Virgo.
============
{A small house in the suburbs. A camera man walks up to the front door,
and the sound of music can be heard through the door. The door is opened
by a man in a three piece, white Italian suit. The music gets louder as
the camera is led down the hall, the song identified as ‘Murder
Incorporated’ by Bruce Springsteen. The room the camera ends up in is a
large den, lined with stocked bookshelves, a desk by the window, and a
chair turned to look outside.}

Man in the suit: “Sir, the camera is here.”

{The chair turns around, revealing Virgo. He sits in the chair, reading
a piece of paper.}

Virgo: “Greetings. It seems the OWA has changed its name to the UCP.
Well, no matter. OWA, UCP, EEE, I don?t care what it is called. The fact
remains that I will still be one of the best wrestlers in the fed.”

Man in the suit: “What about those who have spoken of you?”

Virgo: “Mickey, you worry too much. The only mouth that spoke of me was
loud enough to drown out the civil unrest in the Holy Land. Mr America,
you want to know if I will bring my alter ego, The Equalizer, to the
UCP? The answer is no. Equalizer has a purpose. And that purpose is to
dominate the SWF. Virgo has a purpose. And that is to eliminate you.”

Mickey: “That was Equalizer’s plan upon his arrival in the SWF, was it
not?”

Virgo: “Yes. And he quit the SWF. Obviously the Equalizer was more skill
then the Yankee could handle. But fear not. I threw you from a roof,
America. I can do a lot more.”

Mickey: “Won’t that have to wait?”

Virgo: “Yep. First, I get to reclaim my title. Taleis, I have not heard
from you yet. Perhaps the idea of meeting me again is causing you to
reconsider signing your contract? Good. Make it easier for me. And then
there is Anthony Hazard, a man that is a member of the Elite, and
another man I can not stand.”

Mickey: “What about your friends? Will they come along too?”

Virgo: “Yes. The Man of a Thousand Names, Davey Scott. We were not
friends, but we share a common acquaintance. I believe you and he met in
the PWC? The name….is ‘The Patriot’ Kriss Willhelm. He tells me to say
hello.”

Mickey: “Have you spoken with Mr Scott about what Mr Willhelm has
suggested?”

Virgo: “Not yet. I was unsure if Scott was resigning. But I think I
shall approach him soon. If Mr Willhelm is correct, then I am in
business.”

Mickey: “Oh! Look at the time. You have an appointment in 20 minutes
uptown.”

Virgo: “Then we better go. Until next time, UCP.”

{The two men leave, the camera following them outside, filming as they
enter a limo and drive away.}
==============
[Elaine]
Not a word about his encounter with Taleis.. I hope he’s not taking that match lightly.

[Shelly]
Another competitor who shouldn’t be taken lightly is none other than Mariko.
==============
Mariko has finished her weight training and is dripping wet with sweat:

“Well you American losers, I am back. The OWA couldn’t handle me and this federation won’t either. You can make all the rule and weight changes you want, but I will win. This lighter federation is perfect for me. No one will have the power, stamina, or desire to win as much as me. I will rule over all of you! You shall feel my samurai power and bow before me! I want the Cruiserweight Championship and I want it NOW! Step into the ring, if you dare!”
==============
[Shelly]
Mariko sending out a challenge to Traci Lane the UCP Cruiserweight Champion. That’s gotta be an interesting turn of events.. Let’s see if Traci accepts the challenge from Mariko.

[Elaine]
Speaking of our current champion, let’s hear from her and Rachel Ryan.
=============
(The view opens on a cut, glistening Traci “The Black Widow” Lane as she
curls a long bar stacked with weight, her tanned skin glistening, her
half-tee and bikini bottom sopped with sweat, the curves of her strong,
shapely body accentuated by the overhead lights of the gym. She exhales as
she brings the bar to its apex, then slowly lowers it, drawing in another
breath, arching her back as her chest projects forward. Her long brown hair
is pulled into a ponytail that cascades to her mid-back. Standing beside
her is Rachel “The Enforcer” Ryan, a slightly taller and larger blonde, also
coated with sweat, filling out an undersized gold bikini with similarly
impressive muscles and feminine curves. She puts her hand under the bar as
Traci struggles with the last rep.)

[Rachel]
C’mon, Trace! Harder! Push harder! Work for it!

(Lane’s face flushes and her jaw clenches as she battles the weight up, her
biceps swelling with power, until bringing it through the full motion. With
a groan of relief, she lets the bar back down, then drops it onto the rack.

[Traci]
Yes! (She exchanges a high-five with Rachel.)

[Rachel]
Great set, babe. You worked for that last one.

[Traci]
(She towels the sweat from her face, and takes a second to catch her
breath.) Yes, thanks to you. Finding an adequate spotter is difficult,
too, but you serve that purpose marvelously.

[Rachel]
Anytime. You return the favor, so it’s no prob.

[Traci]
You know, I don’t think I’ve gotten your opinion on the conversion of the
OWA to the UCP. What do you think?

[Rachel]
Hell, I don’t care what they call it as long as I get to kick some ass. I
guess the only thing I’ll miss is getting to whoop guys bigger’n 250. That
was always fun.

[Traci]
Yes, well, I understand that there were complaints about that.

[Rachel]
I can understand. It’s gotta be kinda humiliatin’ for some big dude to get
his can kicked by us “sweet li’l thangs.” Like I give a [censored] about
their inner children.

[Traci]
(Giggles.) True. I’m really glad most of the original cast is back, though.
There were only a few departures. I wonder if we’ll hear back from Wendy?

[Rachel]
I think we will. She’s just gotta square some personal business away. Once
that’s taken care of, she’ll be ready to get back into it and kick some
heads. (She smiles.) Y’know, Consuelo looks *good* with that extra muscle.
She carries it real well.

[Traci]
Agreed. All it really did was add shape. And of course, now she can
slam-dunk a basketball flat-footed. Imagine what that will add to her
aerial game.

[Rachel]
It means she’ll be flyin’ higher’n ever. Hey, did you ever get a firm
answer from Godiva about the Femmes?

[Traci]
Not yet. But I’m optimistic. We go back, she and I. I met her while doing
masters work at Cambridge, and I think she’s interested. She’d be a great
addition.

[Rachel]
So long as she understands that we’re a group, but nobody calls the shots.
We do our own thing, and just back one another up.

[Traci]
I made that abundantly clear to her. I may be the founder of the Femme
Fatales, but I don’t give orders. I don’t believe in that.

[Rachel]
That’s cool.

(Walking onto the scene is a blonde woman, equally beautiful, but with
considerably less muscular development. She’s clad in black lycra
short-shorts and a matching athletic bra.)

[Woman]
Miss Lane? You requested to see me?

[Traci]
Jennifer! So glad you could join us. I called you down her to join us in
our workout. I see you dressed for the part.

[Rachel]
Hey, Jen. Whatcha up to?

[Jennifer]
Well, since my old employer, Tom Tomorrow…disappeared, Traci agreed to
hire me as her personal assistant.

[Rachel]
That’s cool.

[Traci]
And I told her that there was mandatory fitness aspect to it; you know,
“Sound mind, sound body,” and all that.

[Jennifer]
I don’t mind. I do a lot of aerobics and stuff anyway. I think being
physical empowers a woman, don’t you?

[Traci]
(She and Rachel laugh.) In more ways than you realize, dear. (She nods at
Rachel.) Have a good idea of where to start her off?

[Rachel]
(Nods and grins.) Oh, yeah. (She puts her hand on Jen’s shoulder.) Let’s
hit some abs, okay?

[Jennifer]
Sounds fine to me.

[Traci]
Don’t mind if I do, myself.

(The three walk off-camera, and the view fades….)
=========
[Elaine]
We haven’t seen Jennifer in a long time.. looks like she’s getting ready to get into the ring. With Traci and Rachel training her, she’s sure to get that something special.

[Shelly]
True enough. We’re going to go down to ringside to see Mr. America in action.
==========
[Ed]
We’re ready to get this match underway. We’ll see Mr. America making his
return to the rings. Under a different banner, but I’m sure still many
feel it’s the OWA.

[Biff]
I don’t care if my paycheck says a different name. As long as the amount
of money only goes up.

[Ed]
I had a feeling you would’ve said that.

[Ring Announcer]
Introducing first! Weighing in at 220lbs. Here is Joe B. Jobber!

[Ed]
Jobber heads to the ring to a solid reaction to the crowd. I have to say
that Mr. America will certainly have the wrestling advantage.

[Biff]
Yeah, but this time around he needs to talk less and wrestle more. If the
guy wrestled like he talked he’d have a belt around his waist right now.

[Ring Announcer]
His opponent! Weighing in at 250lbs. and hailing from Washington D.C.
Here is Mr. America!

["Highway to Hell" by AC/DC plays.]

[Ed]
Here comes Mr. America and he gets a mixed reaction from the crowd. He
has his attention focused on Jobber as he climbs into the ring.

[Biff]
Yeah, yeah. You can’t really say anything about him until he wrestles.

[Ed]
In the past, America was a power based wrestler. He had to drop weight to
make it into the UCP. He’s got a lot more definition to him now and he
looks to be able to move a bit faster. We’ll also have to check out his
power wrestling to see if it was hurt in anyway. There’s the bell…lock
up.

[Biff]
America pushes Jobber into the ropes with no trouble…Irish whip and
America with a clothesline. America picks Jobber up…reverse neckbreaker
and follows that up with Hotshot.

[Ed]
America still a good technically sound wrestler as he applies a clawhold.
Jobber fights his way to the ropes and America breaks the hold. America
with another Irish whip, but Jobber reverses it. Backdrop by Jobber and
he sends America to the mat.

[Biff]
Jobber goes for a figure-four leglock, but America wraps him up into a
small package. One, two, kickout by Jobber. America back to his feet and
a double underhook piledriver.

[Ed]
Those piledrivers are a big part of America’s arsenal of moves. He picks
up Jobber and sends him to the mat with a tiger driver! There’s the old
power we’ve seen in America.

[Biff]
America picks Jobber up and places him on the turnbuckle. Top-rope DDT by
America and I think he’s ready to end this one! Elbowsmash and he follows
it up with a punch to the gut of Jobber.

[Ed]
He signals for his finisher and there’s his new Leaping Piledriver!
Jobber is out of it. One, two, three. Mr. America with a win.

[Ring Announcer]
The winner is Mr. America!

[Ed]
Mr. America rolls out of the ring and walks back up the aisle. I figured
he’d have something to say but he didn’t.

[Biff]
Thank God for that.

[Ed]
Let’s go back to the UCP studios..
========
(The camera shows a long stretch of beach. The sun is just rising. Despite
the late season, and the coming cold, there are a few hard-core surfers and
swimmers out. One figure appears to be jogging down the beach. The camera
zooms in, and we see “Mistress” Monica Brant. She’s dressed in a
surprisingly plain jogging outfit.)

Monica:(Seeing the camera)Ahh, thanks for coming out this early. I know it
was probably tough for an out-of-shape camera jockey.

Cameraperson: Actually, I’m usually…

Monica: Yeah, shut up. Anyway, I have a little something to say to all of
the UCP wrestler wannabes. I’ve been sort of a bad girl lately and…well
I…I just want you to know…that I…I…I loved EVERY MINUTE OF IT! And
if you wimps think that it’s going to get easier, you can dream on! Brant
is back, babies, and it’s all down hill from here. Halloween is the date,
and fear is the theme of the day. Until then, sleep well kiddies!

(Monica continues to jog down the beach, while the camera view fades out.)
==========
[Elaine]
Monica Brant with a word or two.. I wonder what she has planned for Halloween Horror?

[Shelly]
It’s hard to tell with her anymore. Let’s hear from another newcomer to UCP..
=========
[Fade in. We see a blonde woman asleep in an armchair. The UCP channel is playing on the TV.]

[UCP Announcer-type-deal Person]
And so we end another broadcast day. We will be back on the at 9:00 AM.

[The National Anthem starts to play the blonde awakens with a start.]

[The Blonde]
AAGGHH!!

[She composes herself then turns to us.]

[The Blonde]
Sorry about that. I had been warned that that Mr. America was long-winded, but I had no clue he could put you right to sleep. Who knew? Allow me to introduce myself- I’m Fantasia. Just a little background for ya, before coming here to UCP I’ve spent most of my career over in Japan. But those rings are too damn hard! (smiles) Seriously, I got tired of the 14 hours flights from here in Vancouver to Japan every month so I’ve decided to move on. I’m not the flashiest, nor am I the kind to trash talk for days upon end. But I do get the job done where it counts- inside that ring. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to re-watch Mr. America so I can get back to sleep.
==========
[Shelly]
Fantasia new to UCP action..

[Elaine]
We’re still waiting word from Consuelo Salyards.. however, I hear we’re ready for our feature matchup. Let’s go ringside!
==========
[Ed]
We’re just about ready for our feature match.. let’s go down to ringside.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall and is for the UCP TV Championship.. first.. coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 207 pounds.. this is Anthony Hazard!!

[As the lights dim down, a blazing fire some 15 feet high and 25 feet wide
starts to burn over the entrance way. Then as multiple fireworks and
sparklers erupt, "Charisma" by KISS blares out over the PA system and as the
fire takes the shape of "HAZARD," Anthony himself steps through the curtain.
The crowd goes absolutely crazy, no one seems to care what has happened in
the past, they are just happy wrestling is back and ecstatic to see "The
Legend" has returned.

Anthony is wearing a new black and purple body glove dive suit, with
"Anthony Hazard" running down each leg in silver lettering and "The Legend"
on the buttocks. He is also wearing a chrome leather jacket, with in
purple scrip lettering, the words "Team Charisma" on the back.

Hazard struts to the ring while giving high fives and shaking hands all the
way down the ramp-way. As he steps under the ring ropes, numerous
explosions burst around the ring and with quick spin, an arrogant smile and
a nod of the head, Hazard once again gets the crowd going.]

[Announcer]
And his opponent.. weighing in at 250 pounds.. this is the UCP TV Champion.. Taleis!

[Taleis makes his way to ringside... Mr. America by his side.. from behind.. Ricky Hype comes after Taleis, only to be stopped by America.. Hype and America battle it about.. Taleis gets in a couple of stomps, when Hazard rushes from the ring and begins to trade blows with him.]

[Ed]
We have a tag team brawl going on here for this TV title main event. Hazard rams the head of Taleis into the ring post and grabs him by the hair and pulls him to the ring, and rolls him in.

[Biff]
A great start for Hazard, but Taleis is to his feet and nails Anthony with a clothesline. On the outside, official are breaking up the squabble between Mr. America and Ricky Hype.

[Ed]
Taleis just threw Hazard over the top rope.. and off the far side.. with a senton splash and Hazard avoids it and Taleis just landed hard on the outside. Taleis slow to his feet.. Hazard nails him with a knee lift.. then pulls him up and rams him into the corner.

[Biff]
Hazard rolls Taleis back into the ring and sets up for the reverse powerslam.. but America from the outside, gets up on the ring apron. Hazard takes a swing, and Taleis nails him from behind with a double ax handle.

[Ed]
Ricky Hype grabbing America from the apron and they’re going at it again.. Taleis hits with a spinning leg lariat.. Taleis with a big piledriver and a cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Hazard.

[Biff]
Officials have cleared America and Hype from ringside.. but in the ring, Taleis nails Hazard with a Russian legsweep. Taleis off the ropes.. but Hazard with a backdrop.

[Ed]
Hazard with a small package.. one.. two.. reversal by Taleis.. he pulls the trunks.. and his feet are on the ropes!! One.. two.. three!!! And Taleis bails..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match and still UCP TV Champion.. Taleis!!!

[Ed]
Anthony Hazard is furious.. and I wouldn’t want to be that ref right now..

[Biff]
Hey.. you can’t blame the guy for being madder than hell.

[Ed]
Let’s go back to the studios..
==========
[Elaine]
Taleis still the UCP TV Champion.. and he’ll be going to Halloween Horror to take on Virgo.

[Shelly]
That about wraps it up for this week.. except we have to hear from our Internet Champion.. let’s go to Consuelo Salyards.
==========
(The camera comes up on Consuelo Salyards, sitting on a huge white
papasan chair, filing her nails. She is surrounded by fabulous furniture,
and there is soft music playing in the background. The Internet title lies
across her bare midriff.)

[Consuelo]
Davey, Davey, Davey. All dressed up and nowhere to go. I would assume,
since you’re on crutches still, that the knee surgery wasn’t all that
great a success. Maybe you should take a little time off…seek
psychiatric help…

(She quits filing and looks up.)

Who in the HELL do you think you’re talking to? You don’t demand anything
from me. You get no title shot because you’ve EARNED no title shot. Who
have you beaten? Nobody. Listen, loser…before you go screaming about me
ducking you, let’s get a few things straight: I don’t do cage matches.
Period. Everyone knows that. I don’t do cage matches, I don’t do dog
collar matches, I don’t do barbed wire matches or any of that American
bloodbath crap. There’s no skill involved in me ramming your head
repeatedly into a steel cage. That’s reason number one why your challenge
means nothing to me. Second reason: you haven’t beaten anyone to deserve a
shot. Get some wins and we’ll talk. Third reason: I don’t like your
attitude. *I* am the Internet champion. *I* say what type of match I
fight, against who, and when. You don’t demand a damn thing from me; I
TELL you when you can fight me. Do you honestly think that the most
beautiful woman in the world would sign a “Man of the House” match? What
kind of sexist bull is that?

(She tosses her hair over one shoulder.)

Sorry, son. I’m busy that night. Have to wash my hair.

(She blows a kiss at the camera.)

Bet you’re used to hearing that. Now then, I see that old saggy butt
Sanchez is calling my name too. Isn’t that special? I just don’t know
what’s gotten into all of these menfolk around here…testosterone just
building up in their pathetic little heads and making them crazy crazy
crazy. Look, “Enforcer,” like I told Davey: you don’t call me out. I call
you when I’m damned good and ready.

(She smiles.)

When I’m ready to tell you who I’m defending against at the PPV, then I’ll
tell you. Until then, get off my back…something your moms never learned
how to do…

(She laughs.)

I feel like the most popular girl at the prom. Executioner, you’re right.
We did have a match signed, so I tell you what: (She holds up a contract.)
Here’s a contract for a non-title match between you and I. You beat me, I
might even defend against you at the PPV. One way or another, if you can
pin me or make me submit, you get a title shot. At least you’ve got a
little class, unlike the rest of these bozos. Some manners. I like your
attitude, and you can have the match. Contract is signed on my end,
sweetheart.

(She blows another kiss at the camera.)

Okay, boys…you’re dismissed.

(She waves her hand absently as she begins to file her nails again as the
camera goes black.)
===========
[Shelly]
And on that note, that match is signed, sealed and delivered as next week’s main event.

[Elaine]
For Shelly, Ed, Biff and myself.. we’ll see you next week on the Gospel Truth.

Davey: Well, what do you know, look who back. Well folks, I don’t think so. For months, I been giving people what they want, and where does it get me, no where! Perhaps everyone would like me to be the big prancing knight in shining armor, well personally, I think that [censor], and you all know it. I got a few unfinished business left in the former OWA. Consuelo Salyards, I have faced you twice, and both have even off the score. Now, it is time, to find out who the best of the two. We don’t have to know who is the best, I look at him in the mirror everyday. Consuelo, when I get my hands on you, I will kick you [censor] so badly, the coroner will cry! Mr. America.. the man every American wants to be. That is a bunch of [censor] and you know it! We have never crossed path, but the more I think about it, I think you are an [censor]! When I return to the ring, I shall take out two birds, with the same gun! What can you do about it? Nothing, there nothing you can do about it!

[Walks off the set, with crutches]
================
[Scene changes with the old OWA set being torn down and a new set being built... everything goes black and the lights come up and you see Shelly Marks and Elaine Bryant sitting behind a desk and behind them the new UCP logo sits.]

[Shelly]
Welcome to the Gospel Truth, I’m Shelly Marks..

[Elaine]
..and I’m Elaine Bryant and the OWA is no more.. things have been fine tuned and the folks that brought you the great action in the OWA are back with what is now being called, Universal Cruiser Pro.

[Shelly]
Important news.. Consuelo Salyards contract is in negotiations.. apparently she isn’t sure she can meet the 150 pound weight requirement in order to compete in UCP. Now, this leaves the UCP with the Internet Title possibly vacant.

[Elaine]
And that’s not the only title up in the air. Let’s hear the new commissioner of UCP.
=======
[Commish]
Just a quick note, The Extremists have decided against resigning with UCP. Therefore, the UCP Tag Team Championship will be vacated and put on hold.

Also, we are going to disband the Trio Tag Titles.

We have also not heard from Ms. Consuelo Salyards. She still has the Internet Title in her possession, but has not yet signed a new contract with UCP. We are trying to contact Ms. Salyards and will let you know as soon as we hear anything.
=======
[Shelly]
Shocking news. The Extremists, no longer a part of UCP. The Tag Team titles have been vacated and put on hold, pending a future tournament to find new tag team champions. And what about Consuelo Salyards? Will she continue to be the Internet Champion?

[Elaine]
Speaking of titles, someone still on the hunt in UCP is Mistress Monica Brant.. let’s hear from her now.
=======
(The camera shows a silhouetted figure walking down a corridor. Then, it cuts to scenes of OWA wrestling action. We see a woman devastating several other wrestlers, male and female. A female voice narrates.)

Voice: Once there was the OWA. It was a federation that allowed both genders to compete without bias. Of those wrestlers, a chosen few distinguished themselves as excellent. Including Monica Brant.

(We see the silhouette again. The figure walks into the light, and we see the long blond tresses and athletic figure of Monica Brant.)

Monica: Now, that same federation calls itself the UCP. Cruiserweight wrestling at it’s finest. And ‘Mistress’ Monica Brant is going to continue to dominate anyone who gets in my way. Count on it!
=======
[Elaine]
Monica Brant back and ready for action here in UCP.

[Shelly]
We heard briefly from Davey Scott at the top of the program, let’s get some more in-depth comments from the man who used to call himself the “Renegade.”
=======
[Standing with crutches, Davey is looking on wearing white T-shirt and black jeans, with boots. His hair has been cut to about 5 inches in length since the last time they saw him. Also, he lost about 20 pounds since the last time you saw him, now he looks on looking into the camera, however, not smiling]

Davey: UCP eh? What?s this? They complain about my name changing, but OWA.. or should I say UCP, shouldn’t talk now. There is only one reason I am here, contract. But other then that, you can stuff it. Fans.. cheering on. They cheer on people like Mr. America. Yea, I am talking to you, Mr. America. You going around, waving that flag, prancing around. What a crock. Mr. America, the time will come, when you go down. It time to find out, who is definitely the best of the fleet, well we don’t need to know who that it is, cause I look at the best in the mirror every morning. The only excuse for you to use, is I am on crutches, and out of action for a matter of weeks. But beware Mr. America, when I am back in the ring, you better start running, cause I will becoming right after you! Another person who should start changing her running shoes pretty soon, is Consuelo Salyards! That right Salyards, I am back, and you know what I am after. I don’t need to repeat my intentions to anyone, cause no one deserves to hear it twice. Better start running. Cruiserweights? If you are that light, running should be no problem, but you are looking at the man, on crutches or not on crutches, I shall run from no man, no woman, and definitely no commissioner! You got that straight? Cause I won’t repeat it if you didn’t, cause none of you deserve the right to hear me speak twice, cause it is a privilege you folks won’t get often! Get it straight!

[fades]
=======
[Shelly]
No word from Davey Scott on exactly how he got injured, however, he should be ready for action by Halloween Horror.

[Elaine]
Someone else who’s going to be ready for Halloween Horror will be Pretty Boy Monty.. let’s get his comments.
=======
(A camera zooms across the ocean headed for an island, there are numerous workers running around, moving furniture, making additions, in general working their tails off. In the middle of all the confusion stands a figure wearing a yellow hard hat and a plastic sweat suit. As the Camera zooms in it is sort of hard to recognize exactly who the figure is. The figure takes off the hard hat and reveals a full afro that is an amazing color or red, as the figure turns around the familiar smile of Pretty Boy Monty is immediately recognized)

[Monty] Well, Well, it seems as if the cameras are finally back in action. As you can see I have been dispatched by Stacks to get The Mansion back into living condition. A few things have changed since you last saw me eh?! I have a full head of hair, but don?t worry, the nice and shiny Mr. Clean look will be back soon enough. And this little weight suit, well I have to make the weight, it is kinda hard to come down in weight but, no matter a man has to do, what he has to do. Lets see(walking towards the mansion)

Most everyone has been offered a contract to wrestle again, some may not accept, but that is life, Hell I just glad MP. Inc. or what ever they were called have disappeared. What a joke, but none the less there are still a few folks I owe something to. Mr. America, last I remember we were set for a date, (Opens his planner,) Ah here it is, signed and delivered contract. Maybe we can be the first to dance together. Hell it looks as if I have to work my way back to the top who better to start with, hahahaha, hell the knee should be better by now. Lets not forget The Femmes and The Elites, Traci is still the Champ and Tony is still crying for respect, hahaha, Well folks just wanted to say Hi, You will hear from me again, but I have some things to do

(Walks towards the Ballroom, “No No you idiots the Ring goes inside the Gym, not the Ballroom, I don’t care if there was room……”) ======== [Shelly] Pretty Boy Monty is back in UCP and ready for action. Sounds like Monty would like to get his hands on Anthony Hazard.

[Elaine]
Another name back in action is Miguel Thunder. Let’s hear from him right now.
========
<>

<>

Cameraman: Hello. Am I interrupting anything…?

Miguel: Huh? What is it!?

CM: I?ll take that as a no. Did you know the OWA is back?

MT: Duh! Why do you think I’m working out? To improve my already good-looking self???

CM: I see you got an attitude since it closed down.

MT: Yah, your point? Listen, I don’t have much time to chat here.

CM: OK, whatever. Seeing you are one of the pioneers of this federation, how do you feel about it being changed?

MT: It surprises me it opened up again. I haven’t heard from the Commish in, what, 2 months? I just supposed it’s over, so I moved to Tokyo to join NJPW, so I did. Now then, what is it???

CM: Just needed your feelings.
=========
[Elaine and Shelly are quiet and confused for a few moments before Shelly picks up the task.]

[Shelly]
Also returning to action here in UCP, is none other than Mr. America. It’s just been announced that Mr. America, along with Anthony Hazard are the first two to be allowed entrance into the Wheel of Torture tournament. He always has a lot to say, so let’s get there now.
==========
[The scene opens to a gym that was seen a few months back. The camera pans around to show a juice bar, the familiar ring, and the lifting equipment. A familiar figure stands looking in one of the mirrors. The man turns around to show the visage of Mr. America. He looks at Bob, the OWA camera man and smirks.]

[Mr. America]
Bob, been a long time hasn’t it?

[Bob]
Yep. Last time we did this you were had just left the hospital.

[Mr. America]
Yeah, things change and time goes on. Take a look at this though.

[Mr. America backs up a bit to show that he's got more muscle definition. His upper body has more definition to it.]

[Mr. America]
Yeah, I lost about thirty pounds to come back to the OWA.

[Bob]
That’s UCP now.

[Mr. America]
Different name, but familiar faces. I even noticed someone I knew before I ever stepped foot into the OWA has joined up here. Like I said, a different name, but I’m sure I’ll still be the guy who’s the heat machine. The guy that’s on everyone’s hitlist. I wonder if Virgo’s going to bring that Equalizer stuff with him.

[Mr. America turns around and looks into the mirror.]

[Mr. America]
Last time I weighed this much was about a year ago. I started out at 256lbs. and added weight to put a power game into my technique. I’ve still got most of the power, but I can actually move faster in the ring too. This time, I’m not coming with just the piledriver either. It’s more refined and a lot deadlier. We’ll see how a leaping piledriver can do for folks.

[Mr. America strikes a biscep flex.]

[Bob]
Well, I’ll ask you a few questions since George is still on vacation. Now that you’re back, what will be your immediate plans?

[Mr. America turns back towards the camera.]

[Mr. America]
I don’t know. I’ll probably be a bit more laid back for the beginning of the UCP. I just want to see how things to. I’ve got a good record. I’ve beaten some of the better known names in the old OWA. I’ve actually improved my tag team skills as well. We’ll see what happens.

[Bob]
You mean you could be looking for a tag team partner?

[Mr. America]
Whatever suits my needs when the time is right. Right now, I’m just going to look out for me. Taleis has the TV title and we kept in touch. I just want to see where my old colleague stands.

[Bob]
As in who?

[Mr. America]
You’ll know when the time is right.

[Bob]
What about the rest of the UCP? The rest of the old crew that’s coming back?

[Mr. America]
What about them? There are some old scores that haven’t been settled. My main focus won’t be on those people or a belt, believe it or not. I was more or a marked man without a belt and that’s the way I want to keep it. I’ll just do what I do best.

[Bob]
What’s that?

[Mr. America]
Being the UCP heat machine now. I’ll just sit back and wait to see what happens. When I first came to the OWA, I turned the place on its head. I’m actually a veteran like most of the old guys and gals comin’ back. I’ll wait on my old bones and see what young, new lion or lioness comes to claim my crown. Otherwise I’ll just sit back and watch events unfold before me.

[Bob]
You actually seem a bit different.

[Mr. America smiles.]

[Mr. America]
As the old saying goes. The more things change, the more they stay the same. The name of the game is. I don’t have to prove myself to anyone here. If they feel I do, oh well. They’ll get over it and they’ll live. I’m not a hard man to find and getting me in the ring is easier than an eighteen year old some alcohol.

[Mr. America turns back towards the mirror.]

[Mr. America]
I’m already geared up for the start. We just have to see how well I can do.

[Bob]
No comments for anyone? Not even the champions? Most people will probably talk about dethroning them.

[Mr. America]
Nope. I won’t let the TV belt come between my friendship with Taleis and the same goes for Traci.

[Bob]
What about all those fun times you had? The times with Wendy Ryker at Ted’s Bar. The time you made a fool out of yourself with Tom Tomorrow as Freddy Fever, Wendy, and Traci looked on?

[Mr. America]
Something that happened awhile back and it’ll be sometime before that happens again. Not that I don’t want to go out or anything. I just want to actually see what happens. I want to become like Freddy. He doesn’t say that much or do that much. He’s there, though, and you know he is.

[Bob]
Okay, do you think you’ll win any titles this time around?

[Mr. America]
We’ll just have to watch and see. If I want a title I’ll shoot for it. Right now I’m just going to shoot for a comfortable place on the couch and watch.

[Bob]
You’re talking like your old.

[Mr. America]
Bob, I’m not Anthony Hazard. I’m still young to most of the people here that have paid a lot of dues. It’s just time to see the potential that’s coming into the UCP. There is just one regret.

[Bob]
What’s that?

[Mr. America]
The absence of Diamond Brett Robbins. Brett didn’t return, but that’s life. I’m sure I can coax him into turning up though.

[Bob]
What about Jennifer?

[Mr. America]
Don’t know what happened to her nor am I that concerned right now.

[Bob]
You’ve mellowed.

[Mr. America turns around with a smirk on his face.]

[Mr. America]
Nah, I haven’t mellowed. I just don’t have a lot to say. Looking at me speaks for itself because it’s not every day that you look at what every American aspires to be. You don’t look at America’s Perfection all that often.

[Mr. America walks off as the camera fades out.] ======= [Shelly is practically asleep.. Elaine nudges Shelly who snaps alert]

[Shelly]
He’s done already? That was short for Mr. America.

[Elaine]
He sounds much more focused than the Mr. America we saw back in June.

[Shelly]
Another UCP superstar looking to get back into action is none other that “The Way It Is’ himself.. Asian Invasion.
==========
(The scene opens to show Asian Invasion lounging poolside in a plush mountain resort. The camera goes through several screens of him playing golf, working out, and dancing with the Spice Girls on top of his “The Way It Is” bus. It then cuts to Asian, inside the bus.)

[Asian Invasion]
Well, it’s been along time kids, and I’m now back, with the first UCP edition of The Way It Is. I’m sure that you’ve all missed me in our time off, and that’s good. What have most of you been doing, sitting around like a pack of goons for all I care, because NOW, it’s time to get back into the ring. I’m so looking forward to Halloween Horror, because Christmas will be coming a little early this year. I’m sure that the Commish is gonna send me my invite ANY day know to be in the tournament, and I can’t wait!!! I know that it’ll be a sad day for professional wrestling when Mrs. America is invited into a tournament, and I’m not. You know America, it’s been along time, and I just can’t wait to get back in the ring with your flag wavin’ ass, and show you a thing or two about one thing, and one thing only: The Way It Is.
=======
[Elaine]
Asian Invasion doing what he does best.. talking trash. Apparently, he’s hoping for a spot at Halloween Horror as well.

[Shelly]
Also returning to action is the former TV Champion, Virgo. Let’s get his comments right now.
=======
{’Thunderstruck’ by AC/DC is playing loudly. The camera pans out over a stormy sky, lightning flashing everywhere. The screen moves down, as a quick flash of the OWA TV Title blinked across the screen, lasting merely a split second. As the screen continues to move down, a flash across the screen shows a Canadian flag, but its gone just as suddenly as it appeared. The screen moves down to normal level, lightning striking the tree standing in the background, causing it to explode as a branch is torn off. The screen flashes once more, showing a shot of the night sky on a clear night. Suddenly, the camera swings around, revealing a figure standing in the rain, his arms down at his side. He raises his hands up in front of him, a metal pole in each. Lightning strikes the two poles, sending electricity down through the poles, into the figure, and into the ground. The figure drops the poles, and walks towards the camera. As the spotlight from the camera settles on him, the face on the figure comes into view, and looks quite familiar, yet different.}

“Greetings OWA. Surely you haven?t forgotten the most unpredictable man on the active roster? Some may call me by insulting names. Some may address me by my alter ego in other feds. But you all remember me. The man who threw that punk America from the roof top of the arena to the mat below. The man who signed onto the Crew, but was kicked out after a very short time. The man…who has everything to gain, and nothing to lose.”

{The figure looks up into the camera, and grins sadistically.}

“That’s right. Virgo’s back. And this time, I ain?t playing no games. While the OWA went onto a summer hiatus, I took on a new identity in both the SWF, and the IWF. Mr America, you should remember me. As well as those of you in the Underground, or affiliated with it. I took the form of the Master of Disaster, The Equalizer. I had the TV title here. That is nothing compared to what I am doing in other feds. One title already. Held for months. Not planning to let it go. An upcoming PPV, in which I get a World Title shot, a Tag Team Title shot, AND a title defense. All in the course of 3 hours, on one card. Impressive for the guy you all thought would end up being a useless jobber, isn’t it?”

{Virgo chuckles, raising his face to the pouring rain.}

“Old scores unsettled will soon be. Old wounds caused will be reopened. The OWA is functioning again, and its open season on all my enemies. And there are many. But Virgo is not alone this time. He has made many friends. Many who share my lack of control. Those who are willing to take risks to get to the top. The Crew, you are a stable, yes, but I know how to function in a stable. And I am aware of how to take them down. You I have not forgotten. The Crew will pay. And I am already making plans to reclaim that which is mine. The OWA TV Title. Yes, I will get it back.”

{Virgo steps back from the camera.}

“Virgo is back, and he is more potent then the last time. If any of you care to test that theory, then I’ll be there for you to find. Until we meet….”

{Virgo turns, walking off into the storm, lightning flashing around him as thunder crashes overhead.} ======== [Shelly] Virgo looks ready to go.. he obviously would like to get Taleis back in the ring for a TV Title rematch.

[Elaine]
He was talking to the Crew.. let’s hear from a member of that rollercoaster organization.. here’s Shogun.
========
[Shogun]
The only thing I want to say to all our UCP wrestlers is, Watch out!!!! The Crew and THE MIGHTY SHOGUN have returned. I’m the best martial artist in the UCP, and if anyone want’s to take me on, be ready to face my PALM BLOW!!! Remember, THE CREW RULES THE UCP NOW!!!AND ALWAYS WILL!!!!!
========
[Elaine]
Short and to the point is how Shogun usually is and the hiatus hasn’t changed him one bit.

[Shelly]
We just got this in.. Consuelo Salyards has just made weight and entered into the UCP and will keep her Internet Championship. We’ve got some comments from her right now.
========
(Camera comes up on Consuelo Salyards, in a tank top and tight short shorts. Her long black hair is tied in a big red bow, and the Internet title is strapped firmly around her waist. Her sinewy muscles bulge slightly as she puts her hands on her hips.)

[Consuelo]
Well, well, well…will you look at this? Brand new name, same old chumps.

(She grins.)

You can count the Internet champ in, even though I did have to eat my vitamins to get up to the weight minimum. No matter, though…I’ll still be kicking your asses just like always. The Femmes are back, my friends, and ready to do a little damage.

(She takes the belt off, looks at it, then drapes it over her shoulder.)

Still looks f great there, doesn’t it?

(She flashes her supermodel smile, then laughs as the camera fades to black.) ======= [Shelly] Consuelo Salyards back in action and still the Internet Champion in the OWA.

[Elaine]
Also back in action is “The Show” Ricky Hype. Let’s hear his comments at this time.
=======
[scene opens in outside the order window at Buddy Fudge's Ice Cream Emporium where Ricky "The SHOW" Hype is surrounded by about 20 kids in baseball uniforms as he is ordering all kinds of cool treats for them. On the back of their jerseys is embroidered "Little Hypesters".]

[Hype hands the last cone out and turns to meet the UCP camera crew]

[Ricky Hype, holding a Little Hypester in his left arm.] Oh, hey guys, thanks for showing up! Thought I’d say a few words about the action that’s about to get under way in the UCP. First, I hope the babbling mouths keep them shut at least for a little while before the uncontrollable urge to insert their foot overcomes them. We all know who these people are don’t we?

For example, Flagboy, Rugboy, Girlie-Boy, No-Gun, Scott-Tissue, etc, etc.

[Ricky Hype, herds the Little Hypesters over to the Hype-mobile RV. They all imitate the famous shuffle Hype has made so popular with the fans]

[Ricky Hype]
The Elite is not a force to be reckoned with anymore!!

[reporter]
Ricky, what do you mean? The Elite has been disbanded?

[Ricky Hype]
Wait and see fellas. You’ll soon get a look at the new UCP Prime-time attraction!!

[Ricky "The SHOW" Hype turns and climbs aboard the Hype-mobile RV. As he turns the camera catches the purple writing on the back of his chrome jacket. It reads, "TEAM CHARISMA"]

[the scene chromes out]

[Myers Watterson]
Welcome to your Halloween Horror Update.

On October 31st, the Wheel of Torture will take it’s revenge as 8 UCP superstars will compete in order to get a change to take on the UCP Cruiserweight champion at Cruel-tide Greetings in December.

Already signed for the event are Mr. America.. and Anthony Hazard. With 6 more names to be announced.

Also /just/ signed this week:

A rematch for the UCP Television Championship:
TV Champion, Taleis will defend against Virgo.

And for the UCP Cruiserweight Championship:
Traci Lane in the much anticipated match, will defend against Freddy Fever.

Let’s hear from the King of Disco right now:
=========
(Inside Freddy’s Disco Bar, Freddy Fever counts the evening’s receipts, then puts the money in a safe and locks it tight. He turns and chuckles.)

“3 months, I’ve had to wait, and now they want me to wait another? That’s fine. Traci, I’ve all the respect in the world for you as champion, but everybody knows that at Press Your Luck, your title would have been around my waist and they’d be calling me the champion right now.”

“That’s fine.”

“Come Halloween Horror, I’ll be making myself a three time UCP Champion, just like yourself. All the hiatus gave you was a little longer to be called ‘champ.’ We might be friendly out of the ring, but in the ring, I want to be the top dog and if I have to beat you to be there, I will.”

(Fade)
========
[Myers]
Freddy Fever ready for Halloween Horror. Let’s go back out to Shelly and Elaine.

[Shelly]
Thanks Myers. We’re about done for this edition of ‘The Gospel Truth’. However, we’ll close this show with a word from the current reigning UCP Cruiserweight Champion, Traci Lane.

[Elaine]
For Shelly Marks, I’m Elaine Bryant and we’ll see you next time.
========
(The scene opens on an old, battered-looking wrestling ring situated centrally in a small, smoke-filled arena. A row of bright lights illuminates the squared circle as “The Black Widow,” Traci Lane, faces off with a broad-shouldered man sporting a myriad of tattoos. Both combatants are covered with sweat, with a line of blood trickling down the side of Traci’s forehead; her opponent, John “The Bull” Hanley, sports a gash over his right eye and a split lip.

Bull charges, and Traci ducks under, to rebound off the ropes. He spins and catches a dropkick flush on the jaw, sending him to the canvas. Traci hauls him to his feet, scoops him up, then pushes him high overhead, showing him off to the crowd. As the fans cheer “GPP! GPP!”, she braces herself, jumps, then brings him down for her patented Gorilla Press Piledriver. She crawls over him and hooks a leg, and the ref counts one…two…three.

Traci slides off, to have her hand raised in victory, then steps out of the ring. The view fades, to reappear in her locker room, where she sits on a metal folding chair, dabbing at her cut with a towel full of ice. She looks at the camera and offers an exhausted smile.

[Traci]
Hullo, everybody! This is Traci Lane, just trying to keep my skills sharp while the OWA comes off hiatus. These back-alley “extreme” feds are quite a lot of fun, actually — if you can stand the occasional streetfight and barbed wire match, that is. Of course, once we begin our new phase as Universal Cruiserweight Pro, I expect the competition to remain as intense as ever. I’m really not sure what led to this evolution, but no matter — I’ll remain and defend the championship with the same vigor and enthusiasm.

There isn’t much to say right now, except that I hope our original cast — Freddy, Anthony, Davey, America, and even those annoying twits, Asian and Billy — return to do battle with me and the Femmes. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of a spirited struggle with one’s peers, and I’ve missed it terribly.

That’s all from here. I may need stitches, so I’ll need to wrap things up. See you in the ring!
=========
(Closing Credits)

*Footage is shown of Danny Bouchard watching TV*

Like any good rich Quebecois wrestler in his late twenties, Danny Bouchard spends a lot of time watching TV. Last month, an election was called for Canada. 301 seats were up for grabs. And Danny Bouchard lived in one of them.

[BOUCHARD]
Liberal this, Bloc that… [CENSORED] ‘em all! I could do that!

A brazen statement, but would he be able to do it? By “it”, do I mean would he even bother to get out of his recliner to get another beer? Yes, and yes he did get that beer–

[BOUCHARD]
Ahhh…

–but what about the political thing?

*Danny Bouchard sits at his kitchen table with several friends*

[FRIEND 1]
Hey Danny, what party you gonna run for? The Bloc?

[BOUCHARD]
Sounds good, you know? But they already got a [CENSORED] candidate, some jack[CENSORED] lawyer… Eh, I guess it’s settled then, eh?

[FRIEND #2]
What?

[BOUCHARD]
I’m gonna run as a [CESNORED} independant. I don't wanna run around under the orders of those [CENSORED] parties anyway. I’ll do this myself!

And so, Dany Bouchard went about running for MP in the Trois-Rivieresriding.

**OOC: There probably isn’t a riding called “Trois-Rivieres”. Too bad.:P***

*Danny puts up a sign* There was much hard work to be done…

*Kids come by and tear down sign. Danny chases after kids with sledgehammer.*

Much thought to be put into the campaign…

*Danny supervises the raising of a billboard reading “VOTE DANNY BOUCHARD BECAUSE I [CENSORED] SAY SO”*

And, of course political maneuvering.

*Footage of Danny Bouchard getting into an argument with and beating the snot out of the Natural Law Party candidate.*

[BOUCHARD]
Yeah, I just helped you with your [CENSORED] yoga, pal. Try and [CENSORED] levitate now with your head up your [CENSORED], eh? Haha ha!

*Danny reads the paper–the headline reads INDEPENDENT BEATS UP NATURALLAW CANDIDATE, MOVES UP TEN POINTS IN POLLS*

Finally, the time came for the all-candidates debate. The Liberals promised jobs. The Bloc promised sovereignity. The Conservatives promised to suck up to any party woth more seats than them. And Danny….

[REPORTER]
Mr. [Bouchard]What would you do to stimulate the economy and create Canadian jobs, alleviating the horrendous unemplayment rate?

[BOUCHARD]
Jobs? What the [CENSORED] do I care about jobs? I already GOT a [CENSORED] job! [CENSORED] off, next question, eh? Geez…

And on that stirring wave, Danny was carried into voting day…

* A Trois-Rivieres bar. Danny and his friends are drinking beer and watching election results on the big-screen TV.*

[BARTENDER]
You know, I’m supposed to show sports on that thing–

[BOUCHARD]
Ah, shut your [CENSORED] trap and get me another beer.

*The TV flashes:

RESULTS FOR TROIS-RIVIERES*

[BOUCHARD]
Here we go! Let’s see how much I beat those [CENSORED] pansies by…

[REPORTER]
And the Bloc takes Trois-Rivieres, with candidate Lucien Zutalors winning by an immense margin.

[BOUCHARD]
[CENSORED]!

[REPORTER]
Interestingly, well-known OWA superstar wrestler Danny Bouchard was embarrased, with… seven votes.

[BOUCHARD]
[CENSORED]?!?! But there were eight of us running the [CENSORED] campaign!!! [CENSORED]!

*As Danny curses out the TV, one of his friends attempts to escape the bar.*

[BOUCHARD]
(whirling around): You! Laval! You [CENSORED] [CENSORED]! You’re fired as my campaign manager!

*Laval runs*

[BOUCHARD]
You think you’re gonna get away from me you [CENSORED][CENSORED]…

*Later. Danny Bouchard enters his home, an OWA cameraman following.*

[BOUCHARD]
[CENSORED][CENSORED][CENSORED].. ah well, at least I still got wrestling… I’m the best [CENSORED] wreestler there, I gotta get a title shot or something sooner or later…

*Danny takes off his jacket and throws it on a chair. He glances at the answering machine, walks over, and presses a button.*

[MACHINE]
Mr. Bouchard? This is Commisioner Yamhal. I’ve heard you’ve made a foray into poitics. I wish you luck, however, you were scheduled for an Internet title shot… since you’re busy, I’ll have to give it so someone else. Maybe next time–

*Danny Bouchard pounds the machine*

[BOUCHARD]
[CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]!

And so, Danny Bouchard returns to wrestling, without a title shot, but can you not deny that he will not get another soon enough? For he is the Pride of Trois-Rivieres, the greatest francophone wrestler of all time, and the greatest wrestler in the OWA today!!!

[BOUCHARD]
[CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]!
[CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]! [CENSORED]!

[Fade in:

[A black 1937 Jaguar SS100 roadster spins round the corner and pulls up at the curb of a posh hotel. The camera lavishes attention on the curved fenders and the rectangular chassis. It follows the sleek line from the Jaguar hood ornament to the doors as they swing open and a shapely, well-muscled caramel leg steps out. The camera follows the legs as they swing up and stand before lifting to trace the line of the leg to heavily-muscle, runner's thighs and a cream skirt. The camera tends to linger on the exposed washboard abdomen, studying the razor-sharp definition and the gold filigree chain around the navel. It studies the flare of the woman's back and the proud thrust of her chest in a cream fuzzy halter sweater. The arms have been worked and polished to perfection, just enough muscularity without being overdone. The shoulders, strong tawny orbs. After a seeming endless tilt the camera finally settles on the woman's face. It is well worth the shot. She is remarkable.]

[Her features are an unusual contrast of Caucasian and African-American characteristics. Her skin is the colour of cafe-au-lait, her face, shaped like a heart, ending in a strong, proud chin. Her full, bow-shaped mouth quirks into a puckering kiss. The camera focusses on her startling blue eyes and her mane of ironed-straight tawny hair. The woman exudes a sort of confidence, a playful tease that is downright unsettling and intriguing at the same time.]

[Woman]
(Cockney accent) Well, I’ve arrived and wot not. OWA, you’ve just been blessed but good. The British Bombshell, Godiva Rage has just signed the last ruddy bit of paper. She’s ready to compete. Ready to trounce anyone who bothers to get in my way. I don’t know ‘ow many of you been livin’ under a rock, but, mates, a Rage has entered your federation. And that means nothin’ but ‘ard times for the rest of ya.

[The scene cuts to montages of Godiva trying on expensive dresses, modeling sparkling diamond necklaces and bracelets, trying on shoes, rolling on seamed stockings.]

[Godiva]
(voice over) You may not realise it, but I’m what Raymond Chandler used to call “an expensive blonde”. Not that I’m all about money, but you’ve got to pay a price if you want to step into the ring with me. Young, talented, gorgeous, risque.

[Cut back to Godiva]

[Godiva]
You know the OWA will never be the same again, don’t you? I mean this Bombshell is big.

[Cut to scenes of Godiva in the ring, tagging with her sister, Dalbello Rage. It cuts to various shots of them holding various title belts.]

[Godiva]
For those of you who really don’t know your ‘istory. I’m part of that wonderful team, the Misfits. You know, the team that’s won 18 tag-team titles throughout the ruddy world. The team that buries every opponent thrown in our way. Well, enough about that. I’m ‘ere on me own because there’s something out there that I must ‘ave. And that’s that solo recognition. Don’t think I’m ‘ere to get anything less than a championship. Cause I’m not. I ain’t about to make a whole flippin’ ‘eap of friends, neither. Right, I’m all about busting people up, ‘urtin’ ‘em, but good. Oooh la, I’m out of me sisters’ shadows. I get to be me. OWA, that’s bad news for you.

[Cut to scenes from the ICWF. Godiva flashes Shawn "the Heartbreaker" Kidman before superkicking him senseless. Cut to: Godiva straddle pinning Venus after much "foreplay." Cut to: Godiva flashing the crowd in a white mink.]

[Godiva]
I can be a bad girl sometimes, can’t I? Well, that seems to make me popular. They invited me to the OWA to pick up on me wicked, wicked ways and express meself. And don’t worry. I will. The OWA won’t be the same again. Love and kisses, ducks. Ta!

[Fade out as Godiva blows the camera a kiss.]

[Ed]
Godiva Rage set to make her OWA debut right here next week…

[Biff]
Where do these people come from????

[Ed]
Let’s go back to ringside.
————-
[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. and it is for the OWA TV Championship. The challenger has also put up his spot at the Press Your Luck tournament. First introducing the challenger.. he weighs in at 245 pounds.. this is.. Taleis! And his opponent.. weighs in at 275 pounds.. he is the current reigning OWA TV Champion.. here is Virgo!

[Ed]
Here we go… this one has been brewing for some time.. both trading words over several weeks.. and now it accumulates to this match up. If Taleis wins, he becomes the TV Champion… if he loses.. he gives up his spot at the Press Your Luck tournament

[Biff]
The bell rings and Taleis nails Virgo with a spinning let lariat.. dropkick by Taleis.. Virgo scurries to his feet and is met by a superkick from Taleis.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Virgo..

[Ed]
Now hold on.. the Crew is making their way to ringside.. Monty and Shogun at least.. they are conferring.. from the other side Mr. America, crutches and all has appeared. He shouting encouragement to Taleis..

[Biff]
Monty and Shogun come closer to ringside.. Taleis whips Virgo off the ropes and Shogun reaches under and trips Virgo.. the referee is right over there.. telling them to stay away from the ring.

[Ed]
The Crew taking exception to comments made by Virgo in recent weeks.. Taleis is talking to the ref.. not wanting to get disqualified. Virgo goes for a kick to the midsection, but Taleis catches.. and Virgo nails him with an enzuigiri kick..

[Biff]
Virgo nails him with a cartwheel kick.. and then locks in a back suplex.. Virgo with a backdrop driver.. Virgo with a dragon suplex.. and a cover… one.. two.. kickout by Taleis.. Virgo with a legsweep.. and a belly to belly suplex…

[Ed]
Mr. America on the side.. he’s shouting to Taleis.. Virgo with another belly to belly.. and a cover. One.. two.. now hold on just a second.. the Crew has charged the ring and are stomping on Virgo.. Mr. America is up on the ring apron..

[Biff]
The referee is trying to get them out.. Taleis and Mr. America are conferring.. Referee has called for the bell.. Taleis talking to the referee.. we have a lot of confusion here at this time..

[Announcer]
Can I have your attention please. The referee’s decision is that this match is a no-contest. There is no winner.

[Ed]
The Crew coming back to the ring to argue with the referee about that decision? What’s going on here?

[Biff]
Something’s fishy in Kansas. Uh oh.. Here come Mr. Commissioner…

[The Commissioner comes down and takes the microphone and the TV title.] I have no idea what’s going on here, but I’ll tell you this.. I don’t like it.. I don’t like it at all. Consider this belt held up.. Next week, Virgo, Taleis and two more contenders.. Asian Invasion and Rachel Ryan will meet in the ring in a four corners match, with the winner to come out with the OWA TV Championship.

[With that said, the commissioner takes the belt and walks off.]
————–
[the scene: a crowded airport terminal. A flight from Tokyo has just arrived, and the passengers are entering the terminal. The camera focuses on a casually-dressed young man with a carry-on bag slung over one shoulder. On the side of the bag is a large "#1". The man is involved in a very one-sided conversation with a distressed-looking young woman]

[Man]
…And the food! How can they get away with serving crap like that to first-class passengers on an international flight! Of course, normally I would have flown my private jet back to the States, but…[notices the camera] Hey! I didn’t give anyone permission to film me!

[Grateful for the distraction, the young woman takes this opportunity to make her escape]

[Cameraman]
But this is for OWA television, Mr. Foster. Just in case you had a few words to say upon your arrival.

[Foster]
Oh, I’ve got plenty of words to say to the trash that populates the OWA, but for now I’ll keep it short and sweet. Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on the number one talent in wrestling today! I’ve been a champion, I’ve managed champions, I’ve beaten some of the best this sport has to offer! And now, I’ve come to the OWA to add each and every one of your names to the ever-growing list of losers who have been sent on a one-way trip to the Twilight Zone, courtesy of yours truly! Take a seat, peons, because I’m running this show now!

[Foster shoves his way past the camerman as the scene fades out]

[Davey music begins playing..]

[Announcer]
This match is one fall and is a 30 minute challenge match. First coming to the ring.. weighing in at 271 pounds.. this is Diamond Brett Robbins..

[Soon.. a flash of pyrotechnics roared in the gateway.. and Davey comes running and slides into the ring, punches Diamond Brett Robbins all the way to the ropes.. then gives the same clothesline to him as he did to Billy make him sail over, Davey walks to center of the stage, and pick up the microphone.. ]

[Davey]
This is for you Alex.. the End of the MP!!! RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

[crowd goes crazy!]

[Announcer]
Ring Announcer: And his opponent. From Can-

[Crimson Scorpion hits the ring and takes the microphone from the ring announcer.]

[Crimson Scorpion]
A man like this needs a quality introduction, and you junior just can’t shake it.

[Crimson Scorpion looks over at Davey Scott.]

[Crimson Scorpion]
Hiya Davey, how’s the fax machine? Hit the musci!

["You Could Be Mine" by Guns & Roses blasts over the P.A. system. The cavernous arena fills with horrid boos.]

[Crimson Scorpion]
From Canoga Park, California. Weighing in at 287 pounds, the man who put Mr. America out of action. You know him, and deep down you know you love him. Ladies & Gentlemen I proudly present Diamond Brett Robbins!!!

[Diamond Brett Robbins comes down the aisle wearing a "Bill Dundee for Commish!" T-shirt.]

[Ed]
This is a 30 minute ironman challenge match. Most falls in 30 minutes.. there the bell and Robbins is turned around talking down some OWA fans.. and from behind.. Davey Scott with a rollup.. one.. two.. three!!!

[Biff]
What the??

[Announcer]
With one pinfall, at 8 seconds into the match, Davey Scott leads 1-0

[Ed]
Robbins is not happy about that at all.. he’s jacking with the referee.. and from behind again.. another roll up.. one.. two.. three!

[Biff]
That was a fast count.. what the hell is going on here??

[Announcer]

Winner of the match, 3-2, Diamond Brett Robbins!

[Suddenly, Crimson Scorpion blasts Davey Scott from behind with a chair. Davey Scott falls to the ground with a sickening thud. Diamond Brett Robbins and Crimson Scorpion stomp on the prone man's back. Diamond Brett motions to Crimson Scorpion, who leaves the ring to get a table.]

[Ed]
This is how they put Mr. America out!

[Crimson Scorpion sets up the table as Diamond Brett puts Scott on the top rope. Then the Californian blasts Davey with the Diamond Death Drop through the table. As Crimson Scorpion spits on the beaten body of Davey Scott, DBR grabs the mic.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
OWA, that’s two! Who wants to be next??

[Various OWA officials storm the ring and the twe wrestlers high-five.]

[Biff]
Alright.. I’m gonna go talk to these jokers..

[Biff Franklin heads up to the ring as Crimson Scorpion comes walking down to the ring in his anti-OWA clothes. Crimson Scorpion enters the ring to a chorus of boos.]

[Biff]
I’d like to welcome you out here Crimson Scorpion, but it would seem that the fans don’t.

[Crimson Scorpion]
Right now, I don’t really care about the fans because Brett Robbins exposed them for what they really are.

[Ed]
Hold on, we’ve got someone else down here!

[The camer catches something off in the side view and pans down to show a man coming up from under the ring. He struggles out as a knee brace can be seen on his knee and he's holing a crutch. He pulls himself up quickly as Crimson Scorpion has his back to him.]

[Ed]
Wait a minute…that’s…

[The man nails Crimson Scorpion in the back and at that point is shown to be Mr. America. Mr. America slides into the ring with a bit of trouble and bring his metal crutch with him. Mr. America starts to pound away on the knee of Crimson Scorpion as Biff Franklin moves away startled by the whole scene. Diamond Brett Robbins charges down to the ring with Big Russ in tow. Mr. America backs off from Crimson Scorpion who is holding his knee in pain. OWA officals run down to the ring and keep Brett RObbins and Big Russ from entering the ring. Mr. America grabs the mic from Biff Franklin, who high tails it out of the ring.]

[Mr. America]
Well lookie who’s back Robbins. It’s your old Jim Duggan wannabe friend. HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[The crowd cheers.]

[Mr. America]
That’s right Brett and this time you get to listen to my shoot! Let’s start at the beginning Brett! I’d say it was what? A year ago Brett that Live Action Wrestling became your employer and put food on your tables and condoms on your…you when you’d head over to Alyssa’s house? Yeah I believe that was it. You and Scorp here started off a feud, your careers were already headed down the same path. [BEEP] Brett, the only thing you ever did that was worth while was win a secondary title and after that your career hit a downward spiral and you haven’t pulled yourself out of it yet! You tried stealing the title back from good ol’ Ed Salazar and you made a damn hypocrite out of yourself for condemning the Underground for doing it. Just remember something Brett, Vlad left the Underground a long time ago. As for the patron of the LAW Underground at one time. Scorp, you won the world title from Axel and then dropped it to Hardcore. Jesus Christ that’s pathetic! After that you became a liquored up hasbeen like the resident “legend” in the OWA. Dreaming of recapturing past glory? Remember one thing Scorp, you left the Underground for that Pooh worshipping cult and that was the dumbest thing you ever did. Big Russ of all people. You held a title and then lost it to some Reign of Terror flunkie. Chirst Russ, I bet that made Eddy turn over in his grave! As for you, you claimed that you were Underground but you never were a part of the team. You were just too stupid and slow to realize that you were just a hired hand. As for the rest of MP Inc. with Plague and Kodiak hitting rock bottom and high tailing it from the league, you are all that’s left and this makes my job even easier.

[The members of MP Inc. shout insults towards the ring as Crimson Scorpion is helped back to the locker rooms holding his knee.]

[Mr. America]
Yeah, yeah. I’ve heard it all before Brett. It’s the same old scenario, just like Alyssa on her back on a Friday night is the norm around her apartment.

[Ed]
Uh…folks I’m sorry that you have to listen to these comments.

[Mr. America]
You, Mr. Legend of the OWA himself. Let me explain one thing to you and get this through your head Anthony because whether or not you’re a saint makes no difference. You’re still new to these games of post and pre-match fun. You call on the UEA and call it crap. Bash MP Inc. all you want Hazard, but leave the UEA out of it or you’ll have me to deal with and this time I won’t let it slide! That’s where I got my start and if you keep up the bashing I’ll slam you and your heritage around so quickly that you’ll be standing there wondering what in the hell happened rubbing your [BEEP] from the brunt of that fall. Anthony, in a verbal spar I’ll win and if you piss me off. I’ll win the physical spar just as easily. Face it Hazard, right now you’d rather me be on your side.

[Mr. America throws down the mic and exits the ring with some trouble. He hobbles his way back up the aisle.]

Welcome to your Press Your Luck report. They’re dubbing it, Seven Deadly Sins’. Press Your Luck will be held in Fresno California at the Selland Arena on June 29th.

The main event will be for the OWA Championship. Current champion Traci Lane will defend her title against the number one contender, The Disco Kid Freddy Fever.

Another match signed for Press Your Luck is being called The Seven Deadly Sins match. It’ll pit former-Femme Monica Brant against The Wild Child Wendy Ryker in a seven stipulations, best of seven falls match. Here’s how it’ll work. Monica Brant and Wendy Ryker will alternately pick six stipulation for the match and the OWA Commissioner will pick the seventh. That’s one stipulation for each fall. The first fall could be Coal Miner’s Glove match, a Hair vs. Hair match, a steel cage match.. it makes no difference. The first person to win four falls will be declared the winner.

An Internet Title match has been signed.. Champion Consuelo Salyards will be taking on Executioner in a best 2 of three falls.. Home Court Advantage rules. More on that next week.

Also just signed for Press Your Luck.. the battle of the Enforcers.. “The Enforcer” Adam Sanchez battles “The Enforcer” Rachel Ryan.

Now, the thrust of Press Your Luck is the Press Your Luck tournament. Here is how this tournament works:

16 names are put into a barrel. The barrel is rolled, and then two names are taken from the barrel and put into a second barrel. Those names will not be revealed. The names in the second barrel are for those advancing to the second round. Then, two more names are drawn and announced. Those two will wrestle. The loser is out of the tournament. The winner will then flip a coin. If the coin lands on heads, then the wrestler is advanced to round two, and two more names are drawn. If the coin is tails, then a another name is drawn as an opponent for the winning party and they’ll have to wrestle a second first round match. There is no limit on how many times you can wrestle in a single round. If a person is unlucky enough, they could wrestle 15 matches in the first round. Of course, if they were to do that, they’d win the tournament. Once all wrestlers names have been drawn, then we advance to round two.

Again, two names will be drawn and set aside, advancing to the next round. And we continue as we did in round one. When all names are drawn, we continue the process, without setting aside names in each round after the second. When there is only one person left in the tournament, then they will be declared the winner.

The winner of the tournament automatically goes to the main event in our August PPV to face the OWA Champion.

Asian Invasion, Taleis, Big Russ Gator, Crimson Scorpion, Davey Scott, Wolfgang Von Richter, Pretty Boy Monty, Danny Bouchard and Diamond Brett Robbins have already advanced..

That’s all for the Press Your Luck report this week. I’ll be back next week with more info on the card.

["Mr. Speed" song by KISS starts to blare through the speakers as Ricky "the SHOW" Hype emerges and makes his way down the rampway, cheers coming from all corners of the arena. Kids are doing their "Hype Shuffle" imitations, girls are waving and blowing kisses, and there are even some fans wearing altered tuxedo tops with Ricky's green, black, and white colors. Hype jumps up and into the ring and is handed the microphone]

[Ricky Hype]
First things first everyone.

[Hype turns and sticks his tongue out at Biff Franklin then does the "Hype Shuffle" as the crowd roars and laughs in approval. The camera narrows on Hype in the ring. Behind him in the crowd are signs reading "HYPE ROCKS!", "THE SHOW MUST GO ON!" and "HYPE'S RIGHT! BIFF SUCKS!"]

[Ricky Hype]
I just wanted to come down and say thanks to the Champion, Traci Lane, for accepting my challenge. Among all the OWA wrestlers full of themselves and spewing uncontrolled babble, Traci has been a great representative of our league. *pause* Traci, I said I would make sure the Elite is in the spotlight all the time, so you know what that means right? Yep! It’s gonna be another spectacle to behold. “The SHOW” will engulf the entire arena with the proper flare a title match should have. I expect to see all your friends at ringside so that they can /mingle/ with mine. *smile* Now let me get outta here so the Champ can wrestle. Good luck tonight Traci!

[Ricky does the patented "Hype Shuffle", spins around doing his best six-shooter imitation, then hops over the top rope and heads back up the rampway to his theme music "Mr. Speed" sung by KISS]
———
[Ed]
Fans, coming up, we’ve got a match featuring two of the greats in the OWA, as the matriarch of the Crew, Stacks Coltrain, takes on the leader of the Femmes, Traci Lane!

[Biff]
Oh, who cares. These two are just a couple of buddies who’re gonna roll around on the mat for a few minutes and then take off for beer. Coudn’t you come up with a more interesting main event?

[Ed]
Such as?

[Biff]
Well, you could have a match with Ricky Hype tied to a stake in the middle of the ring, against me with a baseball bat!

[Ed]
And pray tell, what would you call such a match?

[Biff]
A pinata! (Laughs uproariously.)

[Ed]
Biff, you are hopeless. Let’s go to the ring for the introductions!

[Announcer]
Fans, the following contest is set for one fall with a 30-minute time limit. Introducing first, at 185 pounds…she is a former OWA heavyweight champion.. accompanied to the ring by Pretty Boy Monty… here is Stacks Coltrain!

(Stacks walks out, with Pretty Boy Monty in tow, as her music blares out across the arena. She leaves Monty outside as she ascends the steps and enters the ring.)

[Announcer]
And her opponent… led down the aisle by the giant, Gustaffson.. she weighs in at 194 pounds. She is the current OWA world’s champion. Here… is… “The Black Widow”… Traci Lane!

(Traci’s music starts up, and moments later she steps through the curtains, trailed by the Giant, Gustaffson. She slaps hands with the fans as she strides to the ring.)

[Ed]
The fans are cheering Traci on as she enters the ring. They’ve really come to love her as champion.

[Biff]
Yeah, she’s your typical white-bread goody-two shoes. Remember when she and the Femmes were the biggest instigators in this fed? They were cool then! Now, they’re just…boring.

[Ed]
I’m sure the fans would disagree with you there, Biff. They exchange a hug, then there’s the lockup. Short clothesline from Traci! Stacks is staggered, and Traci follows up with a European uppercut. She’s going for the swinging neckbreaker — Stacks counters with a side suplex!

[Biff]
And now Stacks with some momentum. Full nelson applied to Traci — Dragon Suplex! She goes for the cover…one…two…kickout by Traci.

[Ed]
Now Stacks has her set up, is going for the piledriver…Traci counters with a backdrop. Traci up, she’s going for a suplex — Stacks rolls her into a small package! Kickout at one.

[Biff]
They’re up, and Traci has her around the throat. A pickup and a CHOKE SLAM!!! Big move for Lane!

[Ed]
And she’s not wasting any time. She’s got her back up, sets - Russian legsweep!

[Biff]
She’s really trying to stay on top of Stacks!

[Ed]
As well she should! Stacks is a great wrestler and a former champion herself. Traci approaches, and Stacks with a kick to the gut. She’s got Traci set up, and hits with a JACK KNIFE POWER BOMB!!!

[Biff]
Awesome impact! She goes for the cover…one…two…thr—NO!!! Kickout at the last second!

[Ed]
Stacks has Traci in trouble. She picks Traci up, she swings her into position — there’s a tombstone piledriver! Traci is really stunned.

[Biff]
Now Stacks carries her to the turnbuckle, and plants her on top. Now she follows her up, hooks her under arm, and goes for a top-rope DDT — NO!!! Traci throws her off for a front-layout superplex!!!

[Ed]
Traci coming back down, and slings Stacks into the ropes. She catches her coming off — spinebuster slam!!! Traci goes for the cover…one… two…kickout by Stacks.

[Biff]
Traci pulling Stacks up — clothesline out of nowhere by Coltrain! Now she locks Traci up and STICKS the dragon suplex. There’s a backspin DDT by Coltrain. Stacks really asserting herself here.

[Ed]
Stacks places Traci on the turnbuckle again. She’s got her hooked — and this time NAILS the top-rope DDT!!! Traci really stunned on that one. The ref counts…one…two…shoulder up.

[Biff]
Traci still in this one. Stacks nails a jumping neck snap, then hauls Traci to her feet. OH! Beautiful standing dropkick! Traci staggers back up, and Stacks nails a savate kick! She goes to the second turnbuckle and waits as Traci struggles up, then sends her back down with the double axhandle!

[Ed]
Traci is REALLY stunned here. Stacks is her equal in the power game. There’s a spinning DDT from Stacks, and now she’s going back to the top. She’s waiting for Traci, and Lane back on her feet. Stacks leaps for the flying clothesline — and TRACI DUCKS!!! Stacks hits head-first!!!

[Biff]
Traci getting her second wind! She sticks a swinging beckbreaker, then pulls her up and hits with a gutwrench suplex. There’s an elbowdrop, and another, and Traci now has her in her arms - MILITARY PRESS!!! Is she going for the Gorilla Press Piledriver?

[Ed]
No! She tosses her back down, then rebounds from the ropes and hits a kneedrop. Stacks staggers back to stand, and Traci stands her up with a European uppercut. She rebounds from the ropes and NAILS a running clothesline!

[Biff]
Now she’s setting Stacks up for a piledriver in the middle of the ring. Stacks is thrashing her legs — and counters with a backdrop!

[Ed]
Wait! Traci’s countering THAT with a sunset flip! There’s the count… one…two…THREE!!! And Traci Lane hangs on to defend the championship!

[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen…your winner, at 17 minutes and 16 seconds, and STILL OWA champion…the Black Widow, Traci Lane!

[Ed]
Stacks and Traci with a post-match hug. These two are still the best of friends.

[Biff]
Come on, one of you can get a great cheap shot in here — awwww, nuts, they’re all walking out together!

[Ed]
It’s called sportsmanship, Biff. Heard of it?

[Biff]
Yeah! I’ve heard it’s for losers!

[Ed]
(Sighs.) At least you’re consistent. That brings us to the end of this broacast.. and the hits just keep on coming as next week, Traci Lane defends here title against Ricky Hype.. and the four corners match for the TV title. For the whole OWA broadcast team.. we’ll see you next week.

[Ed]

[Ed]
Let’s go to ringside for our first match..
——————-
[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. and it is a non title matchup. First.. coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 225 pounds.. this is The Enforcer… Adam Sanchez! And his opponent.. coming down the aisle, along with the giant, Gustaffson.. she is the Internet Champion.. this is the Latin Lover.. Consuelo Salyards!!

[Ed]
This could be a great chance for Sanchez if he can upend the Internet Champion here, it could thrust him very high in the ratings..

[Biff]
Salyards has had a wonderful lucky streak that ends right here now that a real man has stepped up to the plate..

[Ed]
We’ve also just been informed that the Internet Championship will be on the line at Press Your Luck as Consuelo Salyards will defend in a best 2 of three falls match, home court advantage rules.. as she takes on former OWA Champion Executioner.

[Biff]
Oh… who cares.. she’s gotta get back Sanchez here.. and then a whole slew of challengers before she gets to Press Your Luck.

[Ed]
Here’s the bell.. and Consuelo Salyards goes right on the attack.. Hotshot by the champion.. and a bridging back suplex.. one.. two.. kickout by Sanchez.. Irish whip into the ropes by Salyards and she nails him with another hotshot..

[Biff]
Salyards using cheap shots to her advantage here.. looks like she’s getting pretty good at those.. another whip by Salyards and attempted backdrop, but Sanchez nails her with a swinging neckbreaker off the ropes.. Sanchez with a bulldog.. and another swinging neckbreaker.

[Ed]
Superkick by Adam Sanchez.. and a cover.. one.. t.. kickout by Consuelo.. whip by Sanchez.. attempted back body drop.. no! Thrust kick to the head by Consuelo.. and an enzuigiri… spinning DDT by Consuelo.. Sanchez up.. Consuelo with a flying headscissors takedown.. Consuelo with a flying somersault splash.. NO!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 19:21.. The Enforcer Adam Sanchez!

[Ed]
OH MY!!! Sanchez with an upset victory of sort..

[Biff]
Just wait a minute! That’s no upset.. Sanchez is a former OWA Champion.. just cause he’s been gone, that don’t mean nothing.. I predicted he would beat her and he did!

[Ed]
Non-title event only.. Salyards is still the Internet Champion..

[Biff]
Yeah.. but he should be getting the next shot at that belt..

[Ed]
Let’s go down to ringside..

[Announcer]
This match is for pinfall or submission, with a 30 minute time limit. Coming down the aisle with giant Gustaffson. She weighs in at 167 pounds…this is…Mariko! And her opponent…accompanied by Diamond Brett Robbins… weighing in at 295 pounds…this is the Crimson Scorpion!

[Ed]
Mariko looking very intense for this one, Biff. She wants a little payback for her loss to the Scorpion in the Press Your Luck tourney.

[Biff]
I’ll put my money on the Scorpion to win again. Mariko’s looked flat to me lately…well, as flat as a Femme can look, anyway. I mean, if Mariko’s costume were any tighter –

[Ed]
Biff! Get your mind out of the gutter for once, will you?

[Biff]
Just tellin’ it like it is!

[Ed]
There’s the bell — and Crimson Scorpion with a clothesline from behind! It knocks her into the turnbuckle hard. He’s backing up, taking a running start — Stinger Splash! He’s got Mariko on the ropes already!

[Biff]
Stupid twit shouldn’t'a had her back turned! Now he’s choking away with one of his MP Inc. T-shirts! The ref counts up to four, and Scorp tosses the T-shirt to the crowd!

[Ed]
Mariko back to her feet, the Scorpion whips her into the ropes…she ducks a clothesline, rebounds… shoulderblock! Scorp back to his feet, Mariko jumps and takes him over with a headscissors!

[Biff]
Scorp back up, and eats a dropkick. He backs away as Mariko drops into a stance. He doesn’t want to face that spinning crescent kick of Mariko’s this early!

[Ed]
They lock up again, and Scorpion with a knee to the midsection. He grabs her and tosses her through the ropes! She hits the apron and tumbles down to the floor!

[Biff]
NOW we’ll see some action! Scorp has the ref distracted while Diamond Brett Robbins sets her up on a table. Now Scorp with a running start, he jumps — somersault plancha down onto Mariko!

[Ed]
But the table didn’t break! That had to hurt!!!

[Biff]
Yeah, but Mariko still took the worst of it. He’s pulls her off, and slings her back into the ring. Cover — one, two, thr — kickout! He almost had her!

[Ed]
Almost is the operative word. She’s still in this match. Scorpion pulls her up, sets her up — piledriver! He really stuck her!

[Biff]
This is academic! For cryin’ out loud, just give ‘im the match before he hurts the little girl!

[Ed]
It won’t be that easy, Biff. She kicks out of another cover, and now Scorp has her up — bodyslam! Now an elbowdrop, and he’s up and giving a double thumbs-up to Diamond Brett Robbins!

[Biff]
I tell ya, these MP Inc. guys can wrestle! And did you catch that Robbins chat on Prodigy the other night?

[Ed]
No, I think I was doing something more important, like scrubbing my bathtub. Scorpion slings Mariko into the corner, and hits her with a series of lefts and rights. Cross-corner whip, and Mariko hits HARD. He signals to the crowd, and takes a running start. Stinger Splash — NO!!! Mariko dodges, and Scorp tumbles over the buckle and down to the floor!

[Biff]
Big tactical mistake on his part! Diamond Brett over to help, and Mariko back to her feet. She takes a running start, HUGE LEAP — SHE CLEARS THE ROPES AND COMES DOWN ON BOTH OF THEM!!!

[Ed]
What an incredible move! Mariko with a furious look on her face, she pitches the Crimson Scorpion back into the ring, and heads for the top rope. Scorpion up he turns, she jumps! Bodypress — NO!!! He REVERSES it into a powerslam!!! Cover! One! Two! Three! NO!!! The ref says she got her shoulder up at the last second!!!

[Biff]
GREAT reaction from the Scorpion! He backs into the ropes and scores with a big kneedrop. He hooks the leg, one, two — another kickout. What does it take to keep her down?

[Ed]
I’m guessing that Mariko’s really determined to take this match to the limit. He’s yanking her up by the hair, backs her into the ropes…a big chop! Now another! One more!

[Biff]
Listen to those moron fans yell, WHOOO!!! What’s that all about?

[Ed]
Biff, if you don’t know by now…Scorp picks up Mariko, and puts her on the top turnbuckle. He climbs up, signals — OH MY GOD!!! He STICKS her with a top-rope inverted power bomb!!!

[Biff]
GOOD GRIEF!!! What a devastating move!!!

[Ed]
And Crimson giving the crowd a quick kata! He should be down on Mariko!!!

[Biff]
It won’t matter! She’s OUT!!!

[Ed]
Scorp now taking his time making the cover. One…two…three!!! No, her foot was on the rope! Crimson thinks he’s won, but the ref is waving it off!

[Biff]
She is the luckiest wrestler I’ve ever seen! Scorpion had her dead to rights!

[Ed]
Mariko’s held gold before, she’s tough! Scorpion is frustrated, but he turns and pulls Mariko back up. A scoop and a slam, now he’s headed for the top!!!

[Biff]
If he sticks this, it’s through! She’s in the middle of the ring!

[Ed]
He’s turned to face the crowd, making a throat-slitting motion! Now he jumps, moonsault –

[Biff]
NOBODY HOME!!! Mariko dodging aside at the last second!!!

[Ed]
Mariko getting her second wind, she’s pulling herself to stand! She’s got a furious look on her face!

[Biff]
Scorp might be in trouble! And she’s hitting him with a succession of chops and kicks to his body! A spinning thrust kick to his sternum sends him stumbling back into the ropes!

[Ed]
Mariko really bringing that martial arts experience to bear. She pulls him toward her, picks him up — MILITARY PRESS!!! People forget that Mariko is one of our stronger competitors, she’s holding a 295 pound man overhead like a sack of flour!

[Biff]
And a BIG slam back down! She pulls him into an inverted position, jumps — PILEDRIVER!!! That was reminiscent of the Made in America piledriver!!!

[Ed]
That was an excellent move, and Mariko firmly in control. She pulls him up, makes the sign, SPINNING CRESCENT KICK — he ducks! He goes for the Discus Punch — blocked! She jumps, spins, and NAILS THE SPINNING CRESCENT KICK!!!

[Biff]
SMACK!!! Scorp turns a 360 in mid-air, and lands on his back! You could hear the impact from that one in the risers!!!

[Ed]
Mariko not wasting any time! Cover…one…two…THREE!!! And Mariko evens the score with Scorpion at one fall apiece!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 27:35…the Asian Assassin, Mariko!!!!

[Ed]

If the coin is tails, then a another name is drawn as an opponent for the winning party and they’ll have to wrestle a second first round match. There is no limit on how many times you can wrestle in a single round. If a person is unlucky enough, they could wrestle 15 matches in the first round. Of course, if they were to do that, they’d win the tournament. Once all wrestlers names have been drawn, then we advance to round two.

Again, two names will be drawn and set aside, advancing to the next round. And we continue as we did in round one. When all names are drawn, we continue the process, without setting aside names in each round after the second. When there is only one person left in the tournament, then they will be declared the winner.

The winner of the tournament automatically goes to the main event in our August PPV to face the OWA Champion.

Asian Invasion, Taleis, Big Russ Gator, Crimson Scorpion and Diamond Brett Robbins have already advanced.. Tonight, Billy Smith will battle Davey Scott in another qualifying match. Tuesday, Wolfgang Von Richter takes on. Nazghul, and on Thursday, Pretty Boy Monty takes on Harvard Earl. Winners advance, losers do not.

That’s all for the Press Your Luck report this week. I’ll be back next week with more info on the card.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. it is a Press Your Luck qualifying matchup. First.. coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 275 pounds.. here is Billy Smith!! And his opponent.. coming down the aisle, hailing from Flagstaff, Arizona .. weight 280 pounds.. it is Davey Scott!

[Waiting around, he is not showing. Billy Smith is still waiting.]

[Ed]
Well, I think this match will be one for the record books. Two men, who have been dying to get at each other, get to do so tonight. Also, this is a Press Your Luck qualifier match, meaning the winner of this bout advances to Press Your Luck in June.

[Biff]
Big deal. These two don’t care about that. What they care about is beating the hell out of each other. And I personally think Billy Smith is going to each Davey Scott a lesson he’ll never forget. He can change his name, but like Shakespeare said, ‘A rose by any other name, still smells as sweet.’ And after tonight, Davey Scott by any other name, is still a loser.’

[Still no Davey Scott]

[Ed]
It appears Davey is making a no-show tonight..

[Biff]
Hahahaha… yea.. He is AFRAID of what Billy Smith will do to him tonight!

[Ed]
I can’t imagine Davey giving up a chance at an OWA Title Shot.. This very well may be… wait.. what this..

[With Billy turned the towards the wall, Davey comes from the opposite side, crowd is popping, Davey jumps over the guard rail, jumps on to the ring, jumps onto the top rope, and flies off giving Billy Smith a flying clothesline from the top rope. Billy rolls out.. and Davey, already dressed for the match.. jumps around.. and stomps while fireworks fly off.]

[Ed]
Billy walking around the outside. Then finally gets back into the ring. Billy and Davey lock up. Billy catches Scott in a Northern Lights suplex. James Beard counts: One, two, kickout by Scott.

[Biff]
Smart move by Smith. Scott is going down tonight. Smith goes for a piledriver, but Scott counters with a backdrop. Davey takes him down with a backbreaker. Scott goes out and mingles with the crowd, then returns to the ring. Who does he think he is? One of the Femmes? He’s here to wrestle, not to flirt.

[Ed]
Davey Scott executes an earringer. Billy Smith runs into the ropes, causing Scott to miss with a shoulderblock. Billy Smith nails Davey with a faceslam.

[Biff]
The girls ain’t gonna think he’s so hot now. Smith goes for a Frankensteiner, but Davey Scott counters it with a power bomb. James Beard counts: One, two, kickout.

[Ed]
Scott goes out and mingles with the crowd, then returns to the ring.. The ref oughta count him out for that. Scott whips Billy into the ropes, but Billy reverses it. Billy goes for a bodyslam, but Scott blocks it. Scott goes for a punch, but Billy reverses it. Looks good on Scott, too. How’d that feel, Renegade boy?

[Ed]
Scott nails him with a Frankensteiner from the top rope. Scott whips Billy into the ropes, but he reverses it. Smith just sent Scott crashing into James Beard, who flies through the ropes.

[Biff]
You know Smith has that planned. He wants to make Scott suffer. Billy with Scott in a belly-to-belly suplex. The ref is still out. Billy goes for a backslide, but Scott reverses it. And the ref is still out, unable to count.

[Ed]
Scott nails him with a bulldog headlock. Scott going for the pin, but James Beard is still out. Smith kicks out, just as the ref climbs back into the ring. Scott whips Billy into the ropes, but Billy with a reversal.

[Biff]
Way to go, Smith. Billy hits Scott with a shoulder. Billy hops out of the ring. He returns with a fire extinguisher. Seems he is tired of Scott thinking he is so hot, and plans to cool him off. Billy hits him with the fire extinguisher. Nice shot.

[Ed]
The ref didn’t see it, and that’s lucky for Billy Smith. Smith takes him down with a jumping DDT, and goes for the pin. One…two.. kickout by Scott. Scott with a roundhouse right, and he runs to the ropes.

[Biff]
Billy stops Scott’s charge with a kick. Smith whips Davey into the ropes, clothes….missed! Billy tries again, and nails Davey Scott with a bulldog.
Scott nails Billy with a clothesline.

[Ed]
Billy Smith leaves the ring, and reaches for a nightstick. Smith tries to club Davey Scott with the stick, but Scott avoids it, and grabs the stick from Billy. Davey smacking Billy Smith over the head with the nightstick.

[Biff]
That’s cheating! Disqualify him, Ref! Scott gets Billy in a figure-four, but lets go after only 11 seconds. Billy runs into the ropes, and Scott drops him again with a bulldog.

[Ed]
Scott with a crucifix. The ref is counting. One…that’s it. Smith kicks out. Smith turns around and levels Scott with a Doctor Bomb. Its good for 2, but not enough to secure a victory.

[Biff]
It will be, you watch. Scott setting up Billy on the turnbuckle. Davey with a belly-to-back superplex, but Billy just shrugs it off! Scott signaling for the Spinning Piledriver….and Smith with a jack-knife powerbomb! He’s too smart to allow Scott to get the piledriver on him.

[Ed]
Billy Smith going for the pin…one, two, thr.. Scott kicks out. Scott gets out of the ring again, mingling with the crowd. Smith grabs Davey on his way back in, and whips him into the ropes.

[Biff]

Scott sets Billy up…Spinning Piledriver! Smith tries to put Davey into the ropes, but Scott with a clothesline, sending Billy crashing to the outside of the ring.

[Biff]
The ref begins counting: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten! I don’t believe it! Davey Scott wins by count-out! NO! It can’t be!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 22:43, advancing to Press Your Luck.. Davey Scott!

[Ed]
Davey Scott beats Billy Smith and advances to Press Your Luck.

[Biff]
I still can’t believe that.. 9 out of 10 times, Billy Smith can make Davey Scott eat his lunch!

[Ed]
Well, if that’s the case, then this is the one time that Scott got the better of Smith. Up next we have the Submission match between Anthony Hazard and Shogun.

[Biff]
This one should be a good match. On one hand you have a man with the status of Shogun. He is one of the greatest legends in the OWA. On the other hand you have Anthony Hazard. He calls himself the “legend” and he does have quite a history to back it up, but you can’t be a legend and manage someone like Ricky Hype.

[Ed]
I don’t know about that Biff. I could accuse someone of the same mistake when they took on managing you.

[Biff]
…WAIT A MINUTE!!

[Ed]
Let’s go up to the ring announcer for the introductions.

[Ring Announcer]
Introducing first. Accompanied to the ring by Pretty Boy Monty, here is former OWA TV champion, Shogun! His opponent…

[Ricky Hype makes his way down to the ring shaking hands and posing for photos as the fans pat him on the back. He is wearing a black leather jacket, on the back in silver and green glitter it reads "The ELITE RULES!" Hype climbs up and enters the ring. Spinning around he showboats doing the Hype shuffle before taking the ring mic.]

[Ricky "the SHOW" Hype]
I came tonight thinking there was going to be a great match. Then I found out that it wasn’t “the SHOW” wrestling, only the boring Shogun. I’ll have to take Anthony out to a chess match for some excitement after “Nogun” submits to Anthony’s new move, “the Legend Lock”.

[camera shows a bunch of little kids dressed in play tuxedos, ala Ricky Hype, posing and trying to perfect their version of the Hype shuffle]

[Ricky "the SHOW" Hype]
The Elite have been one of the greatest stables ever in the OWA, but they have been missing something for a long time. From now on, the ELITE will be in the limelight. I’ll make sure of that! The Elite are NOW! and will be! the main attraction in the OWA from here on out. Get ready, the Elite are entering a new chapter, the HYPELIFE!

[Hype climbs out of the ring and passes by the announcer's table shaking hands with Ed, then pulling out some white tablets, he drops them into Biff's water glass and walks away smiling as Biff's water bubbles over, the alka seltzer working its magic]

[Biff]
HEY! Why you..

[Announcer]
From the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame city, Cleveland Ohio and weighing in at 207 pounds. Here is former multiple Champion, Anthony Hazard.]

[The crowd explodes in cheer as "Rock and Roll All Nite" by KISS blares out from the PA system. Near the entrance way, massive pyrotechnics erupt in a blinding blaze of light and sound. Then, with one last explosion, a gigantic word begins to take form as flames engulf the area just above the entrance. When the music reaches its pinnacle, and the flames reach their peak to spell out the word "HAZARD", Anthony Hazard walks out of the entrance way. He is wearing an "Elite" leather jacket and new black and deep blue wrestling tights, with, in red lettering, the word "Hazard" running down each leg. "The Czar of Wrestling", Sir Goodwin, is close behind, he is wearing an "Elite" leather jacket as well and a Ricky "The SHOW" Hype shirt underneath.]

[The crowd erupts in cheer]

[Anthony makes his way towards the ring shaking few hands and giving few high fives. As he gets to the ring, he turns and walks over to the commentators table as Sir Goodwin enters the ring. With a chuckle and a laugh, Anthony jumps into the ring, spins around once as more pyrotechnics explode above the ring, then removes his "Elite" jacket to reveal, also in red lettering, the words "The Legend" on the back of his new outfit.]

[Ed]
There’s the bell and we have a lock up…Hazard pushes Shogun into the ropes and a whip by Hazard…both men take the other down with a clothesline! Hazard gets back to his feet first.. a fist to the midsection and Hazard follows that up with a powerslam! Hazard going with the power moves early on.

[Biff]
Hazard with a Russian legsweep and he slaps on a cobra clutch. Shogun gets to the ropes quickly after that. He used his ring smarts and knew his ring positioning well. Hazard takes Shogun down with a clothesline…Hazard goes up top and hits a flying kneedrop!

[Ed]
Dangerous move if Hazard had missed that. He could have made his knee tender for a figure-four leglock. Speaking of figure-fours, Hazard with another submission move in the form of a figure-four sleeper…Shogun gets to the ropes quickly again. Shogun has yet to mount an offense in this match.

[Biff]
Hazard goes up top and he comes off the buckle with an elbowdrop, but Shogun rolls right out of the way! It’s Shogun’s turn now to pour on the offense. He goes up top…a flying karate chop! He follows it up with a Japanese armdrag takedown. Hazard is whipped into the ropes and Shogun with a thrust kick to the head, but Hazard ducks under it…Hazard comes back with a clothesline!

[Ed]
Shogun was sent out of the ring with that clothesline! Hazard follows him out and since this is a submission match there are no count outs that can happen. Hazard with the Reverse Power Slam on the concrete floor! Shogun wasn’t expecting that!

[Biff]
Shogun will bounce back. It’s a lot easier for him to hit the Palm Blow. Hazard whips Shogun into the guardrail…now it’s Shogun going into the ringside steps…and Hazard giving the sign for the Reverse Power Slam. That may not be a smart move to telegraph it.

[Ed]
Hazard goes for the Reverse Power Slam, but Shogun was ready. He counters with a nasty backdrop driver. Shogun follows it up with a double underhook power bomb.

[Biff]
It looked more like a tiger driver to me Ed.

[Ed]
They’re both one in the same move Biff. I’d assume that since you were a wrestler you would’ve known that. Shogun goes for a power bomb, but Hazard backdrops him over. Hazard clamps on a sleeperhold. I don’t know if Hazard can make Shogun submit on the outside of the ring.

[Biff]
You never know until you try Ed.

[Ed]
The OWA’s very own Biff Franklin and his expertise in color commentating.

[Biff]
Shogun grabs hold of Hazard’s head…he breaks that sleeperhold with a jawbreaker…Shogun with a whip into the guardrail on Hazard now…Shogun sets up for the Palm Blow! Hazard comes teetering back and Shogun goes to hit, but Hazard sees it coming and ducks under it!

[Ed]
Hazard with a fist to the midsection and doubles Shogun over! Hazard with a powerslam on the floor and he throws Shogun back into the ring. The match goes back to the inside finally. Here comes Hazard, but Shogun is up to a vertical base to meet him. Shogun with a jumping side kick…he follows it up with a Yakuza kick!

[Biff]
Shogun is the master of martial arts. Shogun floors Hazard with another Yakuza kick and goes up top…a flying karate chop again! Power bomb by Shogun and he goes for a headscissors submission, but Hazard blocks it! Both men get back to a vertical base and Shogun slaps the taste right out of Hazard’s mouth!

[Ed]
Shogun follows it up with a diving headbutt and he slaps on an octopus hold. He’s got on that modified abdominal stretch made famous in Japan.

[Biff]
So then it’d be my guess that Shogun uses the octopus hold for that reason.

[Ed]
My point exactly Biff. It took you a little long to catch on there.

[Biff]
Wha….HEY!

[Ed]
Hazard finally reaches to the ropes and the ref calls for the break. Hazard’s side has to be hurting as well as his neck after that painful hold. Shogun runs into the ropes an Hazard takes him over with a powerslam! Hazard out of nowhere with that powerslam and he follows it up with a belly-to-belly suplex!

[Biff]
Hazard goes up top and comes off with another elbowdrop, but again! No one is home as Shogun rolls right out of the way. Shogun with a Japanese armdrag takedown.. and follows it up with a power bomb! He just sent Hazard right through the mat with that one! Shogun pulls Hazard back up to a vertical base and nails him with a punch.

[Ed]
Shogun puts on a side headlock and goes for a headlock takedown…no! Hazard counters with a back suplex.. and he follows it up with the Reverse Power Slam! Both men are down…Hazard is getting back to his feet first and he’s up. Hazard with a belly-to-belly suplex…and he cinches in a sleeperhold. The ref checks the arm of Shogun…it falls once…he checks again…it falls for a second time…he checks it for the third time and it falls! Hazard has won the match.

[Biff]
What the? Shogun never submitted.. what the hell is going on here?

[Ring Announcer]
The winner is Anthony Hazard in a time of 16:23.
————
[Inside an old warehouse, sound of grunting and groaning is heard. The camera follows a hallway to a wide open space.. Freddy Fever is locked up with a sparring partner in the center of the ring. Irish whip by Freddy, and *BAM* nails the DiscoKick (modified Superkick to the side of the head) and the sparring partner slumps to the mat. Freddy takes a towel and wipes his face and looks at the camera.]

Freddy: Traci Lane. You just make sure to keep that belt until Press Your Luck. Freddy Fever is back and the DiscoKick is back as well and at Press Your Luck, I will once again be the OWA Champion. Make no mistakes about that. Anthony Hazard, the self-professed legend, I still have something for you. Anytime, anywhere, let’s see who truly is the legend in the OWA.

[The sparring partner slowly gets to his feet and Fever snaps him with another DiscoKick for good measure as the camera fades.]

[Myers]
Welcome to your Press Your Luck report. They’re dubbing it, “Seven Deadly Sins’. Press Your Luck will be held in Fresno California at the Selland Arena on June 22nd.

The main event will be for the OWA Championship. Current champion Traci Lane will defend her title against the number one contender, “The Disco Kid” Freddy Fever.

Another match signed for Press Your Luck is being called “The Seven Deadly Sins” match. It’ll pit former-Femme Monica Brant against “The Wild Child” Wendy Ryker in a seven stipulations, best of seven falls match. Here’s how it’ll work. Monica Brant and Wendy Ryker will alternately pick six stipulation for the match and the OWA Commissioner will pick the seventh. That’s one stipulation for each fall. The first fall could be Coal Miner’s Glove match, a Hair vs. Hair match, a steel cage match.. it makes no difference. The first person to win four falls will be declared the winner.

Now, the thrust of Press Your Luck is the Press Your Luck tournament. Here is how this tournament works:

16 names are put into a barrel. The barrel is rolled, and then two names are taken from the barrel and put into a second barrel. Those names will not be revealed. The names in the second barrel are for those advancing to the second round. Then, two more names are drawn and announced. Those two will wrestle. The loser is out of the tournament. The winner will then flip a coin. If the coin lands on heads, then the wrestler is advanced to round two, and two more names are drawn. If the coin is tails, then a another name is drawn as an opponent for the winning party and they’ll have to wrestle a second first round match. There is no limit on how many times you can wrestle in a single round. If a person is unlucky enough, they could wrestle 15 matches in the first round. Of course, if they were to do that, they’d win the tournament. Once all wrestlers names have been drawn, then we advance to round two.

Again, two names will be drawn and set aside, advancing to the next round. And we continue as we did in round one. When all names are drawn, we continue the process, without setting aside names in each round after the second. When there is only one person left in the tournament, then they will be declared the winner.

The winner of the tournament automatically goes to the main event in our August PPV to face the OWA Champion.

Asian Invasion, Taleis, Big Russ Gator, Crimson Scorpion and Diamond Brett Robbins have already advanced.. Next Sunday, Billy Smith will battle Davey Scott in another qualifying match. Winners advance, losers do not.

That’s all for the Press Your Luck report this week. I’ll be back next week with more info on the card.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First.. coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 275 pounds.. he calls himself America’s perfection.. this is Mr. America! And his opponent..

[Suddenly, Diamond Brett Robbins comes down the aisle wearing jeans and a leather jacket.]

[Ed]
Well.. here comes Diamond Brett Robbins. He seems to have misplaced his wrestling gear.

[Robbins grabs the microphone from ringside and paces the ringside area for a few moments, soaking in the boos from the crowd.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
You can boo all night for all I care.

[Robbins unzips his jacket and takes it off revealing a T-shirt underneath that says "OWA SUCKS!!"]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
How do ya like that you stupid marks?

[DBR smiles as the massive crowd boos him even more.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Mr. America, it pains me to have to tell ya this- but there ain’t gonna be no damn match tonight. You see, every time the OWA gets in a bit of trouble- they come to me. After I gave this damn company the biggest buy rate for a pay per view, they sat me at home for two weeks. Now that it’s May, and everyone knows it’s ratings month, they call me up and tell me to show up for TV. They want me to save the company once again. I don’t think so. This promotion has done nothing but treat me like crap since DAY ONE, and now they want me to turn around and save it again? I don’t think so. And as much as I’d like to wipe the mat with this Jim Duggan wanna-be, that would only make the front office happy. Happy because they know it’d draw the ratings. But since they’ve screwed me all this time, I’m gonna screw them. And that’s just the start! Because if it’s the last thing I do, no matter how long it takes for me to do it, I’m gonna put this damn stinkin’ promotion OUT OF BUISNESS!

[Mr. America takes the mic from the ring announcer.]

[Mr. America]
Brett, don’t give that bull[BEEP].

[Some of the crowd pops.]

[Mr. America]
So now that little Diamond Brett Robbins can’t get his way. He’s going to stir up a little trouble. Brett, you never did draw crowds. I’ve been here for a few months and when I started out here I turned this place on its head. Just like MP Inc. has done. The only difference, I came in with a bang and didn’t flop like the whole Pooh doll worshiping lot of ya did. Hell Brett, I know you’re not afraid of me. So why exactly aren’t you wrestling? Are you afraid that your talents can’t help you this time? I’m sure that’s some of it. Did you lose confidence in what Louie taught ya Brett? He was a great wrestler but you’ve come along and brought him shame as a trainer. How many people would want to see their protege worship a Pooh doll? Brett, or I’m sorry. That’s your “middle” name. Diamond, you truly are pathetic. If you don’t want to wrestle then leave. I thought I’d get a challenge tonight. I looked forward to locking up with an old UEA wrestler like I am, but no! All I get is some little kid with a pacifier in his mouth and a his head shoved up his [BEEP]. So just do me a favor and go back to enjoying the honey. Tell Tigger I said hi.

[Mr. America throws the microphone at Diamond Brett Robbins.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
First of all, windbag, I don’t worship Pooh. That’s Plague and he’s fallen off the face of the damn planet. Now as far as us floppin’ goes, it’s real easy. Unlike you- I wasn’t gonna go into the commissioner’s office and get down on my hands & knees for him.

[More boos come from the crowd.]

[Mr. America]
Sorry Diamond, talented, superstars like me don’t have to do that. Lackluster, flash in the pan, no-talent, whining, arrogant, self-absorbed, brash, faces in the crowd like you and the rest of MP Inc. do have to give out those sexual favors to make it in the crowd. So how exactly did you win the LAW International title Brett? Peterbilt had a hell of a lot more talent than you did, but then that’s why you associated with him isn’t it? It’s pretty bad that you had to ride the coat tails of both Peterbilt and Natural Born Killer.

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Ooohhhhh….gee that really hurt. You know, if I got a pacifier in my mouth, then boy you got one right up your big ol’ fat [censored]. Ya know, now I’m pumped up. So I tell ya what I’m gonna do.

[Mr. America]
What’s that? Go back to Mamma Plague and cry in her apron because the other boys and girls are better than you are?

[Brett rolls his eyes and climbs up onto the ring apron.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Even though I hate this damn promotion.

[He takes off his watch.]

[Mr. America]
Brett, you hate anything that you suck at. So I guess that’s why I don’t see Alyssa at your side anymore…

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
At least I had a girl, unlike you so I hear had to take his cousin to the prom. And since you brought up an old wound, I’m gonna kick your f[censored]ety little [censored].

[Mr. America]
In the words of nothing more than a mid-carder who’s a space filler. “Bring it on!”

[Suddenly from out of the crowd comes Big Russ, also wearing an "OWA SUCKS!" T-shirt. Russ blasts Mr. America from behind with a chair. Mr. America falls to the ground with a sickening thud. Big Russ nails the fallen patriot time and again with the chair until Mr. America is covered with his own blood. As the crowd fills the cavernous arena with boos, Big Russ leaves the ring to get a table. As he does so, Diamond Brett Robbins sets Mr. America up onto the top rope. Big Russ gets the table set up, and DBR nails Mr. America with a Brainbuster from the Top Rope through the table. Big Russ takes part of the broken table and jabs it time & again into Mr. America's head as DBR takes back the microphone.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
That’s just the start! Sooner or later, all the rest of the so-called OWA stars will get their [censored] carted out of the ring until there’s no one left in this damn stinkin’ company. Do it Scorp!

[Suddenly, up in the rafters, we see Crimson Scorpion, also wearing an "OWA SUCKS!" shirt, he pulls a rope and papers drop down into the arena. Diamond Brett holds one up and it reads "IMPEACH Marvin Yahmal!!! BILL DUNDEE FOR COMMISSIONER!!!" After taking in all the boos, the trio make their exit as medical help comes to Mr. America's aid.]

[Pre-recorded]

[Billy Smith] You know something, those days that I was the Internet Champion were the most glories days that this organization has ever seen. Since Consuelo won that title, the whole title situation has just gotten boring. I know she beat me three times before blah blah blah, but she is just not championship material. Oh yeah, Consuelo, I have become quite the actor as of late. You and all the rest of the [CENSORED] in the OWA actually believed that you earned my respect, that is a bunch of [CENSORED]. I don’t care if you whipped my ass twenty times straight, you will never earn my respect unless you beat me in a street fight. In fact, that’s exactly what I want to do, challenge your ass to a Boston street fight. If you think that you are ready to play my game, than we can do this anytime that President Yahmal wants to sign the match. While we’re on the subject of cowards, let’s talk about the recently dethroned TV champion Mr. America. You have been ducking my challenges ever since I first met your ass. The way I see it, Mr. America is all talk and no balls. So just stop the talk and let’s just get it on. Cause if Virgo can beat the [CENSORED] out of your ass, then I just might kill you
———–
[Ed]
Mr. America is being attended to.. the OWA Commissioner has joined us. Mr. Yahmal.

[Yahmal]
Don’t think I’m going to sit by idly and let these MP guys come out here and cause this much trouble. They came whining into my office when LAW and the UEA closed down begging for a place to wrestle, so even though we weren’t really looking to adding new wrestlers we let them in as a favor to LAW who we had a favorable PPV with in the past. Now they are claiming that we have been impartial with them. Let me address that. No matter what you’ve done in any other federation, you start at the bottom when coming into the OWA as do all wrestlers. Now, if you have a problem working your way to the top, then I suggest that you seek employment elsewhere. Unfortunately, I cannot do much about their T-shirts or their pamphlets, because I’d be slapped with a lawsuit before noon tomorrow. But, I will let them know to watch their toes cause now they have my full attention.

[Biff]
I don’t know if I agree with MP Inc about the OWA sucking, but I do know they sure do know how to draw attention to themselves.. you have to admire that.

[Ed]
Shut up. Let’s go to ringside for our main event.

[Trumpets begin to blare]

[Ed]
Wolfgang Von Richter is coming down to ringside. Walking along side of the Baron is his faithful great Dane, Augustus. That dog might come in handy here in the OWA, eh Biff? Look at that, Richter just put some youngster on the back of Augustus. That kid will remember this night forever. He’ll be sitting in the front row with royalty tonight.

[Biff]
What the hell is this all about? I thought OWA had a ban at wrestlers being at ringside?

[The lights dim a little and the spotlights center on the entrance way as "The Extremist" by Joe Satriani thunders through the loud speakers]

[Ed]
Here come The OWA Tag Team Champions! The Extremists!

[The Extremists strut down the rampway wearing the tag team belts tight around their waists. Both are wearing "The Elite Rules" T-shirts and are holding Ricky Hype action figures, Maxx with the Team Charisma go-cart version. Also, walking down behind the Extremists is Sir Goodwin, The Czar of Wrestling. Maxx hands a small child the Hype action figure and go-cart. The child hugs the Hype figure with uncontrolled excitement. Blades and Maxx make their way over to ringside, walk past the commentator's table waving at Ed, then with smiles, flip off Biff Franklin. Wolfgang stands and shakes the Tag champs hands as they try to pet Augustus, then throw up their hands after a low growl. Sir Goodwin pats Wolfgang on the shoulder and then gets a gooey kiss from Augustus]

[Biff mutters under his breath]

[Ed]
What’s that Biff?

[Biff]
If it were up to me, the “SHOW” would have been cancelled long ago!

[Ed]
You failed to get that done at Crime Spree.

[The crowd has mixed emotions as Anthony Hazard appears on the video screen. Hazard is sitting in front of a fireplace wearing jeans and a Ricky Hype "The Show" T-shirt.]

[Hazard]
Listen up and listen good all you Hazard wannabes. It’s about damn time “the SHOW” got his due, I can’t think of anyone else besides me who deserves this title match more than Ricky. I knew as soon as Hype joined the OWA he was going to make some noise, well Ricky, you’ve done quite a bit of that. I think you’ve finally earned your place with the best. Sir Goodwin and I have discussed this and we both think it’s time for you to join your brothers in the Elite.

[The crowd erupts with a thunderous roar]

[Hazard]
It’s up to you Ricky, you make the call bro. Oh hey, while I’ve got everyone’s attention. Hype!!! *smile* I’ll have to be challenging you for that title your about to win bro, and since the TV belt is defended every week, I’ll have to be getting that shot as soon as I come back.

[From behind the entrance curtain can be heard a low rumbling, like that of a NASCAR engine just starting up]

[Ring announcer]
From Hudson Bay , Canada, standing 6′2″ and weighing 257 pounds, the Master of Style, the Sultan of Shuffle, the Prince of Pomp, the Grand Duke of Glamour, Captain Glitz, stand up and make some noise people! This is Ricky “The Show” Hype!

[With "Mr. Speed" by KISS piercing the air, through the curtain rumbles a giant green, black, and white Zamboni decked out with neon Christmas lights, bright as the sun. Standing on top is Ricky Hype "the SHOW" wearing his usual white tux and tails studded with white, green, and black gems twinkling in the spot lights. He is wearing an "ELITE RULES!" T-shirt. Hype jumps down and jumps into the stands as the fans surround him. Hype suddenly pops up onto the arms of the crowd and they propel him over the seats to ringside. Jumping down next to the ring, Ricky Hype performs his familiar Hype-shuffle as his high fives the Extremists, Sir Goodwin, and Wolfgang before planting a kiss on Augustus the great Dane. Hype then climbs into the ring and strikes a pose]

[Ring announcer]
Coming down the aisle, from Kingston, Ontario… weighing 275 pounds… the OWA TV Champion…VIRGO!

[A few moments go by as Virgo's theme music plays, but Virgo does not appear.]

[Voice]
Now is that any way to start a show? I think not!

[The stage lights focus into the crowd, where Virgo is standing, surrounded by fans, wearing the TV belt. He has a microphone in his hand, and raises it to his mouth.]

[Virgo]
Let’s do this right….hit it!

[Thunderstruck by AC/DC begins blasting out of the speaker system, as Virgo works his way through the crowd to the ring. When he gets to the ring, he smiles, thrusts a fist into the air, and a pyrotechnic display initiates, lasting a few moments.]

[Ed]
I don’t think we’ve /ever/ took that long to start a match ever..

[Biff]
That moron Ricky Hype thinking that by doing all this show that he’s gonna take the TV title from Virgo.. he’s got another think coming..

[Ed]
Ricky Hype has all the chance in the world to win that title.. check that out..

[Up at the aisleway.. OWA Champion Traci Lane and Rachel Ryan are standing whispering to each other..]

[Biff]
You can’t think that “Ricky All-Hype” is putting a scare into the OWA Champion?! Obviously she is scouting Virgo..

[Ed]
The bell has rung for this TV title match. Both men circle.. and lock up.. Virgo whips Hype into the corner.. he charges in, but Hype lifts a knee.. and nails Virgo shooting out with a clothesline. Quick cover by Hype.. and not even a one count as Virgo kicks out.

[Biff]
Hype ain’t that lucky.. he ain’t even talented.. if he wins, it’s gonna back to be from luck. Virgo gets to his feet and Hype nails him with a superkick and goes for another cover.. one.. kickout again by Virgo. Hype off the ropes, and Virgo drives a knee to the midsection.

[Ed]
Virgo with a low blow.. and that doubles over Ricky Hype.. and Virgo with a powerbomb! Cover.. one.. kickout by Hype.. Virgo goes for an atomic drop, but Ricky Hype shifts and brings Virgo down with a bulldog.

[Biff]
He didn’t get all the bulldog.. but caught it enough to stun Virgo.. lucky shot.. Ricky Hype is calling for the Modified Bulldog.. he sets up.. but Virgo pushes him off into the corner.. too early for Hype to be trying to finish off the TV Champion..

[Ed]
Virgo hits with a clothesline.. Virgo with an enzuigiri.. but Hype ducks and hits Virgo with a clothesline.. Hype with a waistlock suplex.. Hype bounces off the ropes and nails a kneedrop.. Hype with a cover.. and he’s got his feet on the ropes for leverage.. one.. two.. three!.. NO! The ref is waving it off.. he caught Hype with his feet on the ropes..

[Biff]
That Hype is cheating! Hype is arguing with the ref.. He turns back to Virgo, who rolls him up.. and put /his/ feet on the ropes! One.. two.. three!! Virgo rolls out and gets the pin! Hahahahaha! I can’t believe that Ricky Hype is soooo stupid.. wait.. I take it back.. I can believe it!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 16:06, and STILL OWA TV Champion… Virgo!!!

[Biff is still laughing his ass off]

[Ed]
There’ll be no house shows this week.. but OWA Championship Wrestling will return next week… Anthony Hazard will be back from his suspension and taking on Asian Invasion.. plus Virgo defends his title against Miguel Thunder… all this and more next week on OWA Championship Wrestling! For the whole OWA broadcast crew.. we’ll see you next week.
———-
[Fade in. We're at the airport. We See Diamond Brett still wearing his "OWA SUCKS!" T-shirt.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Man do you guys follow me everywhere?

[The camera nods.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Sheeh.

[Our Hero goes through the metal detector.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Mr. America. [smiles] Hope you’re recovering well from the beating we gave ya tonight. Unfortunately I won’t be able to listen you blabber on endlessly about it. Why, you ask?

[Diamond Brett stops at a gate and we see a familiar female.]

[Diamond Brett Robbins]
Because I’m going to Hawaii to take care of something more important than wrestling. Have fun runnin’ your mouth, it’s what you do best.

[The female approaches.]

[The Female]
They’re not coming with us, are they?

[Diamond Brett]
No Alyssa, this time is just for you and me.

[Alyssa]
Good.

[Diamond Brett]
See ya around OWA…..and if you thought this week’s TV was exciting….just wait to see what we have in store for next week.

[Ed]
Welcome to OWA Championship Wrestling.. and Crime Spree goes down in history as the most violent night in professional wrestling! Rejoining the broadcast position this week is Biff Franklin, who’s team lost at Crime Spree, however, you left a lasting impression on one Ricky Hype.

[Biff]
Bah.. who cares if that Stallion is a loser and can’t beat that runt Taleis. I had Ricky Hype screaming for mercy and I loved it! Being back in the ring was great! Of course, I’m now back in retirement, so you get the pleasure of my humor and wit.

[Ed]
Uh.. right. This week, we have four great matches for you. We’ll see the return of “The Enforcer” Adam Sanchez as he’ll take on the tough Taleis. Gustaffson returns to single action as he takes on Nightmare, in a Press Your Luck qualifying match. Stacks Coltrain will battle Big Russ Gator, and our new OWA TV Champion, Virgo will defend his title against Harvard Earl. Let’s go to ringside.
————-
[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First, coming down the aisle, weighing in at 245 pounds, this is Taleis! And his opponent, making his OWA Championship Wrestling debut.. he’s a former OWA Champion… this is “The Enforcer” Adam Sanchez!!

[Ed]
We got a quick look at Sanchez at Crime Spree where he made his debut… Taleis also successful at the PPV.. both are looking ahead to Press Your Luck and will be in qualifying matches next week for that tournament.

[Biff]
Well, Taleis has shown a bit of a mean streak in his last couple of matches.. I think I’m going to like it.. there’s the bell and there’s a lock up. Taleis goes for a punch, but Sanchez ducks and delivers an inverted atomic drop.

[Ed]
Sanchez with a rana.. and there’s a cover.. one.. t.. kickout by Taleis.. Sanchez with a clothesline, but Taleis ducks and backdrops Sanchez out of the ring. Taleis with a senton splash on Sanchez out of the ring! Taleis throws Sanchez back into the ring, and follows him in.

[Biff]
Taleis with a spin kick, but Sanchez ducks and nails Taleis with a spinning headscissors.. Sanchez with a belly to back suplex.. and a cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Taleis.. Cross corner whip by Sanchez.. he goes in after and goes for a monkey flip but Taleis blocks and Sanchez falls backwards on to his head.

[Ed]
Taleis goes to the top and lands a moonsault.. one.. two.. kickout by Sanchez.. Taleis hits with a enzuigiri.. and then a springboard dropkick.. cover.. one.. two.. Taleis has his feet on the ropes.. and the ref sees it and makes him break.

[Biff]
Taleis is beefing with the ref on that one.. and Sanchez has pulled something from his tights.. it’s a chain and he’s wrapping it around his hand. Taleis turns from the ref and Sanchez nails him with the chain! What a cheater! Cover.. one.. two.. three!! I cannot believe that!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 12:23, Adam Sanchez!

[Ed]
Sanchez with a win over Taleis.. Let’s go to Myers Watterson and our first Press Your Luck report.
—————-
[Myers]
Welcome to your first Press Your Luck report. They’re dubbing it, “Seven Deadly Sins’. Press Your Luck will be held in Fresno California at the Selland Arena on June 22nd.

The main event will be for the OWA Championship. Current champion Traci Lane will defend her title against the number one contender, “The Disco Kid” Freddy Fever. Fever won his title shot with a victory over Monica Brant, and Traci Lane retained her title at Crime Spree.

Another match signed for Press Your Luck is being called “The Seven Deadly Sins” match. It’ll pit former-Femme Monica Brant against “The Wild Child” Wendy Ryker in a seven stipulations, best of seven falls match. Here’s how it’ll work. Monica Brant and Wendy Ryker will alternately pick six stipulation for the match and the OWA Commissioner will pick the seventh. That’s one stipulation for each fall. The first fall could be Coal Miner’s Glove match, a Hair vs. Hair match, a steel cage match.. it makes no difference. The first person to win four falls will be declared the winner.

Now, the thrust of Press Your Luck is the Press Your Luck tournament. Here is how this tournament works:

16 names are put into a barrel. The barrel is rolled, and then two names are taken from the barrel and put into a second barrel. Those names will not be revealed. The names in the second barrel are for those advancing to the second round. Then, two more names are drawn and announced. Those two will wrestle. The loser is out of the tournament. The winner will then flip a coin. If the coin lands on heads, then the wrestler is advanced to round two, and two more names are drawn. If the coin is tails, then a another name is drawn as an opponent for the winning party and they’ll have to wrestle a second first round match. There is no limit on how many times you can wrestle in a single round. If a person is unlucky enough, they could wrestle 15 matches in the first round. Of course, if they were to do that, they’d win the tournament. Once all wrestlers names have been drawn, then we advance to round two.

Again, two names will be drawn and set aside, advancing to the next round. And we continue as we did in round one. When all names are drawn, we continue the process, without setting aside names in each round after the second. When there is only one person left in the tournament, then they will be declared the winner.

The winner of the tournament automatically goes to the main event in our August PPV to face the OWA Champion.

Two men have already qualified for that match. Asian Invasion and Diamond Brett Robbins. There’s a match later tonight between Gustaffson and Nightmare, and three qualifiers next week. On Tuesday, Adam Sanchez will take on Big Russ Gator. On Thursday, Taleis will take on Shogun, and on next Sunday, Mariko will take on Crimson Scorpion. Winners advance, losers do not.

That’s all for the Press Your Luck report this week. I’ll be back next week with more info on the card.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall and is a qualifying match for the Press Your Luck tournament. First coming down the aisle, weighing in at 287 pounds.. this is Nightmare! And his opponent.. coming down the aisle, standing 7′ 2″ and weighing 367 pounds.. this is the giant, Gustaffson!

[Ed]
Nightmare was chosen to replace an injured Johnny Blades, who is still recovering from Crime Spree. Nightmare off the bat attacks Gustaffson before the bell..

[Biff]
That’s what he’s going to have to do.. Nightmare off the ropes, but Gustaffson plants him with a clothesline.. Gustaffson lifts him up and nails him with a chokeslam..

[Ed]
Gustaffson has Nightmare in big trouble.. and he nails the Drop Piledriver! Cover.. one.. two.. three!! He advances that quickly!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 2:03, advancing to Press Your Luck, Gustaffson!

[Ed]
We had an Anthony Hazard segment we were going to show you at this time, however, the OWA Commissioner was very strict about Hazard’s two week suspension and will not allow it to be shown during this broadcast.

[Biff]
Bah! That Commissioner is starting to get on my nerves.

[Ed]
Let’s go down to ringside.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First, being accompanied to the ring by Masked Plague and Pooh. Weighing in at 265 pounds.. this is Big Russ Gator!

[Big Russ hits the ring and takes the announcer's mic]

[Big Russ]
Cut that music, I gots somethins I wants to get off my chest. First off, Mr. America you pansy. I knows you hears tonight, and ifins I catch you back stage I’m gonna knock the ass clean off your back

[Big Russ spits dip into the middle of the ring]

[Big Russ]
Secondly, why the hell do we got that there two bit slut for a champion havin’ ol’ Scotty the Renegade “I just wish Mr. America would give me some more of his corny advice” kissin up to her so damn much. I mean, it bad enough that we gots to see her breakin in to zoos and harrasin endangered species like thems tiger.

[Big Russ Gator blows his nose in his hand, then wipes it off on a turnbuckle]

[Big Russ]
And lastly this Stacks Coltrain I gots to fight today, what the hell is that? Am Ise gonna be fightin a rassler or a damn bottle of cheap liquor? Oh yeah, thems that hussy that helped cheat MP Inc. out of the 6 man tag championship. Well sister, you just gonna have to get beat on tonight, cause Scorp ain’t respect you, Kodiak ain’t respect ya, and I sure as hell ain’t respect ya. So bring that little narrow ass of yours up here in this rang, so I can kick it around for a few minutes. Then I’m gonna take five minutes off for a smoke, then kick it again! So come on sister, its Gator time!

[Russ drops the mic and the announcer picks it up]

[Announcer]
And his opponent…

[As Stacks and Monty steps through the curtains, Mr. America and Tom Tomorrow come through as well and nail them with chairs... from the other side of the arena, Taleis hits the ring with a chair and nails Big Russ Gator.. Masked Plague enters the ring and gets hit by the chair too.. Taleis grabs Pooh and beats on Masked Plague with it. Mr. America slides Stacks into the ring and hits Stacks with diving shoulderblock. Mr. America levels Big Russ with a flying forearm. Tom Tomorrow grabs the leg of Stacks and pulls her to the outside of the ring. Taleis picks up Masked Plague and nails him with the military press diamond cutter. Taleis climbs into the ring as Tom Tomorrow places Stacks onto a table. He takes Stacks down with a top-rope DDT. Mr. America pulls Big Russ to his feet and nails him with the piledriver. Tom Tomorrow climbs into the ring and grabs the legs of the downed Big Russ. Taleis climbs up onto the turnbuckle as Mr. America rebounds off the ropes. Tom Tomorrow slingshots Big Russ into a Mr. America lariat. As Big Russ hits the mat, Taleis comes off the top buckle with a kneedrop to the throat of Big Russ. Mr. America picks up Big Russ and tosses him out of the ring. Diamond Brett Robbins, Shogun, Virgo, Crimson Scorpion, Kodiak, Rainbow Warrior, Executioner and Nazghul come running down the aisle and Mr. America, Tom Tomorrow and Taleis head out the other side.]

[Ed]
What the hell happened here?!?!?!

[Biff]
Mass destruction!

[Ed]
We need to take a break.. we’ll be back.

[Scene goes to the ring and each stable helping out their fallen friends.]
—————
[Scene goes to a Mr. America interview.. no voice is heard, but some background music plays.., then switches to a Diamond Brett Robbins interview]

[Voice over]
Next week on OWA Championship Wrestling.. Mr. America takes on Diamond Brett Robbins…
—————
[Scene goes back as the fallen wrestlers are being helped back to the locker room]

[Ed]
Elaine Bryant is back in the locker room with the three responsible for this carnage..

[Elaine in the locker room]
I’m back here with…

[Mr. America]
Elaine, I love ya, but shut up. So now everyone wants to know what we’re up to. Well let me tell ya something. I got a little tired of sitting with my thumbs up my [BEEP] waiting for something to happen. So what do I do? Well I find out a little tidbit of information and I make a few calls. BAM! Here we go! You’re looking at three people that don’t give a good God [BEEP] what the heck goes on. I’ve claimed to be the OWA heat machine for awhile. Well ever since winning that TV belt, I’ve been about as hot as a dead woman at the morgue. Frankly, I’m glad I don’t have that title anymore. I’m not restrained by those rules anymore that I was bound by when I was the champion. So what’s that mean? Well it sure as hell not good news for either Maxx or Blades, but then they’d have to stop doing that mime impersonation to say anything. Hazard talks about others who are silent. Well Tony, do something with your own before you blast anyone else. As far as you go Hazard. Remember that TV title match? I get to hear you say how you had me beat, well if you’d remember correctly you didn’t get a chance to hit your finisher and I did. You were still groggy in that ring and it showed. Maxx and Blades, you’ve got two things that I have my eye on. Those pretty little belts around your waist.

[Tom Tomorrow]
Can you feel it? Can you sense it in the air? The balance of power in the OWA has shifted, ladies and gentlemen! Who is there that can stand up to our combined might? MP Inc.? The Elite? The Crew? Once we could speak of each of these groups as forces to be reckoned with, but now they are as dated as yesterday’s newspaper. To quote from the Bhagavad-Vita: “I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds!” Look upon us–the Destiny of the OWA! Mr. America…Taleis…and I, Tom Tomorrow…[strikes a pose] WRESTLER OF THE FUTURE!

[Mr. America]
Russ, we’ve been at it for almost a year and I don’t intend to let up until you can’t walk anymore. As for Stacks…she was just an added bonus like Monty. I told you that you hadn’t been repaid in full Virgo and Shogun. We’re still not finished. Though it does amuse me that when we started this feud out how Taleis was on your side. Seems to me that now he’s had a change of heart. Funny how things work isn’t it? He joined a few of my other friends elsewhere and one day I called and we got to talking. Well lookie what happened. I won’t tell you why he’s here because he can speak for himself.

[Taleis]
Virgo…you and the Crew are a bunch of suckers, plain and simple. You’re probably sitting back in the back, staring at your face reflected in the OWA TV belt…wondering why I would associate with these two men. A lot of you people (points to the camera) are probably sitting here wondering the same thing…but don’t worry, the answer is quite simple. So simple, in fact, that even you morons sitting home on your ass will be able to understand it. (Taleis smirks.) These two men (points to America and Tomorrow) are veterans of the OWA. They know talent when they see it. Long story short, we all got together and decided to raise a little hell in the OWA, and this was a very small sample of what we plan to do. Get well soon, boys and girls…we look forward to kicking your asses again! (Taleis laughs.)

[Mr. America]
My oh my! How things are starting to heat up around here! I hope everyone is ready because you’re looking at the future! Yeah Hazard, time the new blood got the spotlight and let you fade out to the background once again.

[Announcer]

[Announcer]
Winner of the match and STILL OWA TV Champion.. Virgo!

[Ed]
We are out of time for this week. For the whole OWA crew, I’m Ed Bagel, and we’ll see you next week.

[Ed]
Ladies and gentlemen.. welcome to Crime Spree! Seattle Police force are
on call and we are about to rock the Pacific Northwest! Joining me for
this incredible event is Myers Watterson.. Shelly Marks and Elaine Bryant
are…

[Shelly Marks hurries up to the announce position.. ]

[Marks]
Myers! Will you trade me places? I’d really like to commentate tonight!
Please!

[Myers looks a bit confused and glances at Ed, who shrugs.. ]

[Myers]
Well.. I suppose that would be okay..

[Marks]
Oh! Thank you.. thank you! *she gives Myers a soft push from the
announce position*

[Ed]
Joining me for commentary will be Shelly Marks.. apparently Elaine Bryant
and Myers Watterson will be giving interviews tonight…

[Marks]
I’m so delighted to be here!

[Ed]
We have a hot one right off the start.. We are going live to Joe’s Bar
and Grill here in downtown Seattle. This establishment closed down last
night for it’s final day and has turned over the location to the OWA for
this event. We’ll be calling commentary from this location, however, the
camera’s are stationary and mounted, but we should have coverage of every
spot in the place.

[Shelly]
We are getting some shots of the place now.. you see the main floor..
tables and chairs.. the bar itself.. the liquor bottles have been removed
however.. here’s another camera angle.. this is the hallway to the back,
and to the restrooms.. and this camera angle is the kitchen….

[Ed]
Before they let the wrestlers into the bar for the fight.. we have some
prerecorded comments from the former tag team champions.. Rachel Ryan and
Wendy Ryker.
– ———–
[The camera cuts to outside the Seattle bar where the bar room brawl is
supposed to take place. Standing in front of it, with their backs to the
camera are Rachel Ryan and Wendy Ryker.]

[Wendy]
Now _this_ is my kinda place. It’s sleazy-looking and run down. And it
probably had less than pleasant regulars coming here. I already feel
_right_ at home here.

[Rachel]
Maxx… Blades… You two are about to enter a _world_ of hurt. This is
more than a match. This is _payback_… And ya know what they say. Payback
ain’t a bi*BLEEEP*… It’s a Femme!

[Wendy]
Hell, it’s been a long time since I could just cut loose and do what comes
natural in a fight, but tonight is the night, and baby, I’m ready, willing
and able to hit ya where it hurts and then go dancin’ all over yer faces!

[They both turn around, staring at the camera. Wendy apparently got
dressed for the occasion, as she has a pair of brass knuckles taped to her
fists so they won't be too easy to tear off.]

[Wendy]
No rules, boys. Nothing to hold us back. Anything goes, as long as one
team ends up unconscious…. Dannyboy…. John-man…. That ain’t gonna be
us…. Trust me, boys.

[Rachel]
You’ve got something that belongs to us, and that just makes us even
_more_ determined to beat the crap outta you! Believe me when I say you
haven’t even _seen_ us get violent before, so remember to put in an extra
order at the blood bank before ya step into this bar with the two of us,
because you’re gonna need it!

[Wendy]
Time to have some fun, boys. Come on down, and enter the domain of the
Wild Child. I promise we won’t cripple ya… permanently.
————–
[Ed]
The object of this match, is to incapacitate both opponents. Now I don’t
expect a match like this to last very long.. there is no soft surfaces
here.. or padding or spring, like you’d find in a wrestling ring.

[Shelly]
Well, I understand that Rachel and Wendy are already in the bar.. and
that Maxx and Blades are right outside. There are a couple of police
officers on the scene, but they will not be in the building.. the officer
inside, will let Rachel and Wendy know and they’ll come out.. and then the
officer will open the doors and let in the Extremists. The only other
person in the room will be a referee to determine a winner.

[Ed]
We’ve got picture back at the bar.. and you see Rachel and Wendy
conferring a bit.. the officer is talking to the referee.. now the officer
is unlocking the front door, and the referee is there with him. And..
this match is underway.. the officer leaves the building, and he’s suppose
to lock them inside.

[Shelly]
In a match of this type, the OWA commissioner has said that a couple of
ambulances will be at the site.. I have a feeling we’re in for a violent
night tonight.

[Ed]
The Femmes have jumped The Extremists.. Wendy Ryker nails Maxx with a low
blow.. and then picks him up and slams him through a table.. and we have
first damage.. Rachel Ryan whips Blades who slides through about three
tables..

[Shelly]
Blades just dove and grabs the legs of Rachel and drops her down.. she
hits her head on the floor.. Blades reaches up and flips a table over onto
her.. he gets up and jumps on the table.. and that had to hurt.. Wendy is
pounding on Maxx.. and Blades nails her from behind..

[Ed]
Double team on Wendy, by the Extremists.. they heave her up and across the
room and she crashes into several tables.. Ryan is up.. she clothesline
Maxx.. but is caught by Blades with a forearm to the side of the head..
Blades slams Ryan on the floor..

[Shelly]
Maxx is to his feet, but caught from behind by Ryker who runs him
headfirst into the wall.. and now Maxx is busted open.. Ryker with a DDT
and Maxx is out.. the referee is checking on Maxx.. however, rules state
there isn’t any counts unless BOTH members are out.

[Ed]
Ryker rushes over to Blades who backdrops her up and over the bar! Blades
pulls up Ryan and runs her headfirst into the bar.. Ryan is busted open
now.. Ryker nails Blades with a clothesline.. and picks up a chair and
breaks it over his back!

[Shelly]
This one is already getting out of control.. Ryker grabs a piece of the
broken chair and chokes Blades with it.. Maxx is slowly getting to his
feet.. he’s very unsteady and blood is pouring down his face.. he grabs a
piece of broken table and breaks it over Ryker’s head…

[Ed]
Maxx tries to help Blades to his feet.. but is double clotheslined by
Rachel Ryan.. Ryan with a strong Irish whip that sends Blades into the
corner table.. Ryan goes right after him and heaves him up.. and
powerbombs him through the table.. breaking it into pieces..

[Shelly]
Maxx runs at Ryan from behind and goes for shoulderblock, but Ryan moves
to the side and Maxx goes into the window, shattering it.. now, the
windows are barred as you can see, which is why he didn’t go all the way
through.. I expect that he’d have been better off going through.

[Ed]
Wendy Ryker is slowly getting to her feet.. Rachel calls her over and they
set up Maxx.. and double bulldog through the table.. Blades is up.. and he
hits Ryan with a chair and she goes down.. Ryker turns around and takes
down Blades..

[Shelly]
Ryker grabs Blades by the hair and throws him into the small corridor
leading to the back.. Blades slams against the door.. Ryker comes in, but
Blades nails her with a kick.. and then DDTs her on the floor.. he crawls
out and spots Ryan down.. he tries to get Maxx to get up..

[Ed]
The referee has noticed that both females are down.. and he starts a
count.. but it’s a little too early, as Ryan is already on her hands and
knees.. He struggles to his feet.. you can see this match has already run
these four competitors down..

[Shelly]
Without a doubt. Blades is looking around for something.. he staggers to
the kitchen area and he comes back with a pot and a pan.. oh my.. he
tosses one to Maxx who right away clocks Ryan with it.. and Ryan is down..

[Ed]
Blades goes after Ryker, who’s trying to get to her feet.. Blades takes a
swing, but Ryker ducks and grabs him around the waist and bring him back
for a belly to back suplex! The back of Blades’ head just smashes the
door behind them.. and Blades is out.. Maxx comes over and goes for
Ryker.. but Ryker nails him with kick to the groin..

[Shelly]
Oooo.. and Maxx is in serious pain.. he crawls away, but Ryker catches up
to him and drops an elbow onto his back.. she pulls him up, but Maxx pulls
her down and her chin connects hard with the edge of the bar.. and she
slumps to the ground..

[Ed]
Maxx crawls away from her.. and just lies down.. the referee looks around
and starts to count… one.. two.. three.. Maxx notices the count and
tries to get up.. four.. five.. six.. seven.. eight.. nine.. ten! The
referee says it’s over..

[Shelly]
He says that the Extremists are the winners.. the doors are opening.. and
medical personnel are coming in to check on everyone.. I cannot believe
that match.. I have a feeling the OWA Commissioner will think twice before
signing another match of that sort.

[Ed]
Coming up, we have the Davey Scott respect match.. let’s go to Elaine
Bryant along with Davey Scott.
———–
[Elaine Bryant is waiting outside the locker room door.]

[Elaine]
Here I am outside the locker room of the OWA wrestlers, and I here that
Davey ‘The Renegade’ Scott is on his way to the ring. Tonight, he shall
face 20 other wrestlers in a Respect Match, where if any of those 20 make
a decision on him within a 2 minute time period.. the match is all over..
odds are against him, and I should know… I saw the list of wrestlers who
are likely to be in the ring against him. ooh..[looks to the left] Here he
comes now..[Davey dressed to wrestle and wearing a Traci Lane T-shirt.]
Davey.. may I have a word with you..

[Davey]
Sure Elaine.. I got time..

[Elaine]
Ok Davey.. you are about to go for the big one, where as you don’t just
face 1 or 2 wrestlers, but 20 wrestlers.. do you feel your up to that
tonight?

[Davey]
[gives a wondering gesture, and then looks straight] Well, I guess the
most honest answer I can give you is I don’t know.. they say the odds are
against me, well.. too be truthfully honest, odds isn’t what keeps me
going. I am not a gambler nor a horse.. I am a wrestler of the OWA.
Furthermore, I think that this match will be one of those ‘match of my
life’ type deals, but regardless, I am going to go in and give it all
I got.

[Elaine]
Now you realize that anybody that doesn’t wrestle you tonight, shall be at
ringside acting as lumberjacks. What you opinion to that?

[Davey]
Well, personally me I don’t need any lumberjacks, due to the fact I will
hopefully be in the ring full time period, if not.. well.. I will walk in
myself.. it the people who are going against me who going to need
lumberjacks, cause if they had enough with me, they might try to leave. I
know plenty of people like that. However, if this is the game the new
commissioner wants to play.. I can deal with that, I beat him at his own
game though.. I don’t think he fully realized who he is dealing with.

[Elaine]
Now you haven’t wrestled since you initially told the world you quit.. so
this is your ‘comeback’ really.. how do you feel?

[Davey]
[thinks a minute] Well, I do regret saying those words at that time,
however, at that time, I was intending on quitting. Then the BOD stuck it
noise in my business, and delayed my resignation, then in order to
wrestle, the Commissioner took away the title shot I was initially going
to get tonight, and put me in this freak show match he calls a Respect
Match, and I can’t wrestle until then, and you want to know how I feel..
umm.. I guess I would feel.. [jokingly].. happy. Well, I’m on my way to
ringside..

[Elaine]
Okay. Good luck. Under Pressure but with a sense of humor, that Davey for
you.. back to control.
———-
[Announcer]
This match is a special Respect Match. First introducing the man who is
trying to earn respect.. he weighs in at 280 pounds.. please welcome Davey
Scott!

[Davey Scott walks down the aisle, slapping hands with the fans on the way
down.. the announcer continues]

[Announcer]
At this time, all OWA Wrestlers should come down to the ring, by orders of
the OWA Commissioner. Please note the scoreclock. *currently flashing
‘Davey Scott’* At the beginning of the match, a name will show up there
and announce the name of each competitor as they are to enter the ring.
The first name will flash shortly.

[Anthony Hazard enters the ring and grabs the mic from the ring announcer]

[Hazard, looking at Davey]
Who the hell are you anyway? Tell me why I should even consider given you
respect or caring if you respect me. I’m sorry but I have a very
important match later tonight and I’ve already spent to much energy in the
last few weeks. Ladies and gentleman, Mr Commish and whoever else cares.
I’ll see you in a few, but for now. I’m outta here.

[Ed]
Oh boy.. this could be trouble.. Hazard is leaving the ringside area..

[Announcer]
Davey’s first opponent.. she is none other than the current OWA Champion..
Traci Lane!

[Ed]
OH MY! You can’t wish for anything worse, than getting the OWA Champion
right off the bat… she climbs in the ring and is ready for action.. she
gets two minutes and then she has to get out for the next person. This
isn’t a Royal Rumble where everyone stays in.. only two minutes of action,
unless your Davey Scott. Scott offers a handshake, which Lane readily
accepts.

[Shelly]
Current word at this time, is that Rachel Ryan is being stitched up in her
forehead and on the back of her head.. she’s lost a bit of blood.. she
also has a slight concussion, but it isn’t expected that she’ll be out of
action long. Johnny Blades, however, has a more serious concussion and
he may be out for three weeks or more.. They will both spend the evening
at the local hospital. No serious injuries to Ryker or Maxx.. they both
made out with only bruises and a few cuts.

[Ed]
That was a rough match for all four competitors.. however, let’s get on
with this match, as the bell has run and the timer is going.. We have a
lock up.. Lane with a whip.. Scott ducks a clothesline.. and comes off
with a high cross body block, but Lane ducks and Scott goes out of the
ring with the momentum.

[Shelly]
Right into the arms of MP Inc members who stomp on him a couple of time
before throwing him back into the ring. Lane sets him up for the Gorilla
Press Piledriver this early.. there’s the buzzer, but she nails it
anyways..

[*Asian Invasion*]

[Ed]
Traci Lane exits the ring and Asian Invasion is like a vulture.. Invasion
with a belly to belly suplex.. and a cover.. one… two.. kickout by
Scott.. Invasion with a whip.. and Scott ducks the clothesline.. and
comes back with a clothesline of his own.. cover.. one.. kickout by
Invasion.. If Scott happens to pin one of these before the two minute
mark, then we get a new competitor in the ring.

[*Big Russ Gator*]

[Shelly]
Russ Gator storms into the ring, but is met with a fist to the midsection
by Scott.. Scott nails Gator with a suplex.. Scott tries for a piledriver,
but Gator counters with a backdrop.. and then goes for a chokehold.. one..
two.. three.. and another.. one.. two… three.. Gator is up.. and nails
Scott with a flying bulldog..

[*Tom Tomorrow*]

[Ed]
Gator gives another stomp to Scott before he exits and Tom Tomorrow enters
the ring.. Tomorrow is slow and deliberate as he sets up and delivers a
chokeslam to Scott. Cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Scott.. he’s taking a
lot of punishment so far.. bodyslam by Tomorrow and a kneedrop, but Scott
rolls out of the way.. Scott with a body slam of his own.. and an
elbowdrop, that misses as Tomorrow moves out of the way…

[*Shogun*]

[Shelly]
Shogun slides into the ring.. and hits Scott with a savate kick.. he sets
up for a powerbomb.. but Scott counters with a backdrop.. Scott his
Shogun with a couple of kicks.. but Shogun nails him with a Yakuza kick..
Shogun with a clothesline.. and now, things are starting to take their
toll on Davey Scott..

[*Danny Bouchard*]

[Ed]
Here comes Bouchard.. he nails Scott with a kick.. and another.. he pulls
up Scott and whips him into the ropes.. and nails him with a spinebuster
slam.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Scott.. he’s definitely determined.
Bouchard nails him with a piledriver and goes for another cover.. one..
two.. kickout by Scott..

[*The Shocker*]

[Shelly]
In comes the Shocker.. he clamps on the Sleeperhold.. and Davey Scott
could be in a bit of trouble.. but he’s too close to the ropes.. Shocker
breaks the hold and hits him with an elbowsmash.. vertical suplex by
Shocker and Scott is down.. it’s basically a survival game at this point
for Scott.. he doesn’t have the strength to fight back it seems..

[*Virgo*]

[Ed]
Here comes Virgo.. later tonight, he’ll be on the roof.. Virgo with a
faceslam.. he goes to the top and leaps off, but Scott moves out of the
way.. he staggers into the corner.. as Virgo charges in, but Scott brings
up a knee.. and hits Virgo with a clothesline..

[*Anthony Hazard*]

[Ed]
Umm…..

[Shelly]
Well.. looks like Davey Scott gets a 2 minute rest..

[*Gustaffson*]

[Shelly]
OH MY! I didn’t even know he was back in action!

[Ed]
And from the look on Davey Scott’s face, he didn’t know Gus was back in
action either.. Gustaffson gets a hold of Scott and hits him with a
chokeslam.. and this crowd is going crazy! Davey Scott is not moving..
Gustaffson sets up and nails Scott with his patented Drop Piledriver.. and
this has got to be over.. one.. two.. three!

[Shelly]
It was a surprise to see Gustaffson’s name come on that screen.. but I’ll
tell you what.. Davey Scott put on what hell of a show.. and.. what’s
this? Wrestlers are filing back to the locker room’s, but Mr. America has
taken the house mic..

[As the rest of the OWA wrestlers walk away from the ring. Mr. America
grabs a mic off of the table. He ruffles the hair of Ed Bagel a bit and
laughs. Mr. America climbs into the ring as Davey Smith gets back to his
feet.]

[Mr. America]
So here we have the “sexy boy” or is it the “renegade” now? Aw hell! I’m
not too sure and I don’t care. You know Davey….

[Mr. America starts to pace the ring.]

[Mr. America]
….not too long ago, you said you were leaving the OWA. You did say that
you were quitting. I was quick to point out that if you did that Billy
would be the one to say that he made you leave. Before that, I remember
you saying that you wouldn’t leave the OWA until you had run out Billy.
Well Davey it almost looked like you were going to take off and let Billy
win. You were going to give him the boast that he ran you out of the fed.
What I want to know is why you came back Davey? Don’t give me this
bull[BEEP] of how it was the fans…how it was your mentor…how it was
Traci Lane because frankly, I don’t want to hear it and neither do the
fans. Yeah Davey, you have fan support, but there are a lot of people
around here that have that and a lot more than you do.

[Mr. America stops and looks Davey Smith in the eyes.]

[Mr. America]
I’ll tell you why it is you came back Davey. It’s not that hard to figure
out. You came back because you knew what you believed was the biggest
bunch of crap you’ve ever heard. All you needed were for other people to
tell you that. You needed someone else to believe in you. You knew the
fans never believed that “sexy boy” or “renegade” crap. They didn’t by
that for a minute. They believed in Davey Smith. That goes for me as
well. All it takes is luck for a man to beat twenty men and to think he’s
a God, and all it takes is someone like me to pin him to the mat and
shatter that image as well as his self-confidence. Davey…I never
respected the “Sexy Boy” Davey Smith. I never respected the “Renegade”
Davey Smith. I always respected just plain old Davey Smith.

[The crowd goes crazy as Mr. America smiles.]

[Mr. America]
Kinda weird coming from me isn’t it? A man’s who’s arrogance and mouth
surpass that of anyone else in this fed. Call it me being humble…but I
call it the truth.

[The crowd cheers even more.]

[Mr. America]
You don’t have to beat twenty men to get my respect. You just have to be
man enough to admit that you made a mistake and you did that. Now, as far
as this goes.

[Mr. America shows the OWA TV belt by moving his jacket.]

[Mr. America]
I seem to remember that you had two chances at this title and came up
short. If I can beat Virgo tonight as well as Hazard in a rematch..
you’re next. You deserve it because the fans don’t want to see the “Sexy
Boy” or the “Renegade” Davey Smith. They want to see the “Champion” Davey
Smith that they love so dearly. All you have to do is beat me. That may
sound simple enough, but we both know it’s no walk in the park. Adios
Davey.

[Mr. America tosses the mic to the mat and exits the ring. He walks back
up the aisle.]

[Ed]
Plain and straight to the point is Mr. America these days.. we’re about
to have our first of three Internet Title defenses.. Consuelo Salyards is
the brand new Internet Champion winning that title from Billy Smith just
over a week ago.

[Shelly]
Her first opponent tonight is going to be Tom Tomorrow who’s getting his
first title shot here in the OWA. He’s done rather well, since debuting
in the league.. and it could be his chance to get the gold. However, on
this night, if he gets the gold, he has two others to go through to keep
it.

[Ed]
Let’s go down to ringside for this contest.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. It is for the Internet Championship. Coming
down the aisle.. weighing in at 310 pounds.. he is the challenger.. he
calls himself the “Wrestler of the Future”… this is Tom Tomorrow! And
his opponent.. she is the current Internet Champion.. she weighs in at 126
pounds.. accompanied to the ring by giant, Gustaffson.. here is “The
Latin Lover” Consuelo Salyards!

[Ed
Not to take anything away from this match or from Davey Scott.. but the
reaction from this crowd when Gustaffson's name came across the scoreboard
was absolutely deafening.. it was great to see Gus inside there where he
belongs.

[Shelly]
Oh, absolutely.. the OWA just isn’t the same without the giant.. We have
the bell and we’re ready for Salyards’ first title defense on tonight’s
card. They circle the ring.. Lock up.. Tomorrow whips Salyards into the
ropes.. Salyards comes off with a spinning leg lariat and Tom is down!

[Ed]
Great start by the Internet champion.. she is fired up tonight.. Now keep
in mind, that last year in this exact same situation. Gustaffson was the
champion.. he made it past his first match, but lost in the second, so
you can imagine that this match is one that really takes its toll on the
wrestlers.

[Shelly]
Also take into consideration that the giant is a large and deliberate
wrestler, and not a quick and sudden wrestler like Consuelo. Tom is up..
and Salyards tries to hit him with a clothesline.. Tom hits her with a
spinebuster slam.. and that took a lot out of the champion.

[Ed]
Tom Tomorrow with a nicely executed vertical suplex.. cover.. one.. two..
kickout by Salyards.. Tom with a whip and a backdrop attempt, but
Salyards nails him with a thrust kick to the head.. Salyards off the
ropes with a cross body, but Tom turns it into a powerslam.. one.. two..
kickout by Salyards..

[Shelly]
Tom Tomorrow with a belly to back suplex.. Tom looking confident at this
point.. he sets up Salyards for a chokeslam.. he’s got her up.. but she
manages to hit him with a dropkick and Salyards off the ropes nails him
with another.. and then a spinning leg lariat and Tom is down..

[Ed]
Cover by the champion.. one.. two.. kickout by Tomorrow.. Consuelo off the
ropes with a flying lariat.. cover.. one… two.. kickout.. Consuelo
with a Frankensteiner.. NO! Tom nails her with a powerbomb.. cover..
one.. two.. kickout..

[Shelly]
Tom goes for a fistdrop.. but Salyards moves out of the way.. and rolls
him up! One.. two.. three!!!! She surprised him and got the pinfall!
Great match by both competitors.. and I’m sure it won’t be the last title
shot for Tom Tomorrow.

[Announcer]
Winner of the match in 19:28 and STILL Internet Champion.. Consuelo
Salyards..

[As Johnny Blades is being loaded into an ambulance, you can see Maxx
looking back at the mass destruction inside the bar. He shakes his head a
bit, slings the OWA Tag Team Championship belts over his shoulders, climbs
into the ambulance and sits next to a medic]

[Maxx, to medic]
How is he?

[Medic]
He’s got a severe concussion and should be admitted right away.

[While reaching out to Maxx and in a groggy voice from under the oxygen
mask, Blades says]
Hey, we won right?

[Maxx, placing one of the OWA Tag Team Championship belts in Johnny's
hand]
You bet your ass we won bro.

[Johnny smiles, then grabs onto the belt with both hands. As the camera
backs away two medics move in and close the ambulance doors. Scene fades
back to the arena as the ambulance drives away]

[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. introducing first.. coming down the aisle..
weighing in at..

[Ed]
The announcer is cut off.. because as Nightmare was coming down the
aisle.. someone has come from the back and attacked him.. and.. OH MY!

[Shelly]
I am not sure that I am really seeing this.. it’s like hearing the Elvis
is still alive!

[Ed]
That is Adam Sanchez!!! Also known as the “Enforcer” back in the old OWA
days on the INN network!

[Shelly]
Sanchez is all over Nightmare.. he throws him into the ring and this crowd
is going wild! Sanchez is on the corner turnbuckle and waving to the
crowd! “The Enforcer” Adam Sanchez back on Nightmare.. he hits him with
a belly to back suplex..

[Ed]
Sanchez with a belly to belly suplex.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by
Nightmare. Sanchez with a cross corner whip.. and he charges in, but
Nightmare gets his knees up.. and then nails Sanchez with a clothesline..

[Shelly]
Nightmare drops a couple of elbows on Sanchez.. Whip by Nightmare..
reversal by Sanchez and he hits with a powerslam.. and he’s signaling for
his finisher!

[Ed]
Slingshot by Sanchez.. into a Boston Crab! Can Nightmare fight this?

[Shelly]
No! It’s over.. Nightmare submits.. and Sanchez gets the win here, his
first night back in the OWA!

[Announcer]
The winner of the match in 6:24, “The Enforcer” Adam Sanchez…

[Sanchez takes the mic]

[Sanchez]
OWA… I am back! And I’m back for one reason! Rachel Ryan.. you are not
the Enforcer! I am! I was the first to hold that title. I was on of the
first to hold the OWA Championship! I was one of the first to hold the OWA
Tag Titles! I was wrestling before Ryan was even thinking about training!
Shortly before my disappearance from the OWA, I was betrayed by my tag
team partner, Devastator. His attacks upon me forced me to retire to
Japan and Mexico where I have been studying under the greatest teacher on
the face of the earth. Now, along with my Arizona toughness, no wrestler
can best me! Ryan has stolen my moniker. She’s a disgrace to the name as
it is, but I’m back to put things straight! Ryan! We’re on a collision
course! Be ready!

[Ed]
Adam Sanchez is back in the OWA and with a mission..
————-
[Walking back to the locker room, Davey is caught by Elaine Brant. Davey
looks a little disappointed, but none the less emotionally controlled.]

[Elaine]
Davey.. the fans, and perhaps the people of the OWA would want your
opinion on the match you just went through…any thoughts..

[Davey]
[giving a sincere face] You know.. I think people are going to consider
this as a lost on my part.. and perhaps it is, but I think even the fans
and anybody else would have to agree that I won.. I went up against 9
other wrestlers before facing Gus, and hell, I survived.

[Elaine]
You looked surprised that Gus even showed up..

[Davey]
Well.. I think the major reason I was surprised cause I didn’t know he was
back in action, so I didn’t anticipate him, however, that where I fell.
Although this might sound like signing a death warrant.. however, Gus.. if
your still listening, I am challenging you to a match.. to see who is the
best.. I agree you were better then I was tonight, however.. for old times
sake, lets bring it on.

[Elaine]
What are you reactions to Mr. Americas comments about you?

[Davey]
I don’t know what to think.. I personally feel Mr. America was being too
kind to offer me a title shot.. it is usually I who ask for them.. it
funny for him to just “give me” a title shot. Although this might
contradict what I said to Asian Invasion.. and I will admit it.. however,
I have been a faded jaded mandarin. Mr America right.. nobody buys the
ticket to see the ‘Renegade’ to wrestle.. nobody buys the ticket to see
the ‘Sexy Boy’ wrestle.. they buy that damn ticket, to see Davey Scott
wrestle, and I think it time I start realizing that. I think it time… to
build my stature, my respect, and my capacity up again.. and to do that, I
think I am going to start with step one.. I am going to take Mr. America
in a match for the TV Title, and I am going to do it, with a smile on my
face.. So Mr. America.. because of those kind words you gave me tonight, I
shall accept your match.. and hopefully, it will be one for the books..
ciao..

[Davey walks in the locker room]

[Elaine]
Well, there you have it, the man the myth the rebel.. back to you, Ed.

This is the first title shot for MP Inc since coming into the OWA a couple of months ago. But they’re going to have their work cut out for them tonight, taking on members of the Crew. Shogun is filling in for Pretty Boy Monty, who has a shot at the OWA Championship in our main event.

[Shelly]
You shouldn’t underestimate MP Inc. They may talk up a storm, and blow a lot of hot air, but they are tough competitors, and I would not be surprised if they walked out of here with the Trio Tag titles. The referee is giving instructions and has called for the bell.

[Ed]
Executioner will start this match against Big Russ Gator. Lockup.. Gator with a bodyslam on the former OWA Champion.. Executioner back to his feet and he’s caught with a clothesline.. Gator tags in Nazghul.. a double elbowsmash by the MP Inc members and Gator leaves the ring.

[Shelly]
Nazghul with a whip.. reversal by Executioner who nails him coming off with a elbowsmash.. Executioner tags in Stacks Coltrain.. Coltrain hits with a flying dropkick.. and then a spinebuster slam.. Nazghul tags in Kodiak.. Kodiak with a lariat.. cross corner whip.. and an avalanche!

[Ed]
Faceslam by Kodiak.. whip by Kodiak.. he goes for a spinebuster, but Stacks counters with a swinging neckbreaker! She tags in Shogun.. whip by Shogun.. he nails Kodiak with a Yakuza kick.. and then a thrust kick to the head.. Shogun off the ropes, but Kodiak nails him with an elbow.. and then nails a falling splash…

[Shelly]
Kodiak goes for another, but Shogun moves and tags in Executioner.. Executioner hits with a handspring elbow.. and then a soviet suplex.. whip by Executioner.. reversal by Kodiak.. and a kick to the midsection by Kodiak.. he tags in Russ Gator.. Executioner tags back in Shogun..

[Ed]
Shogun off the ropes, but Nazghul drives a knee to the back from the outside.. Stacks comes in and clotheslines Nazghul who falls to the floor.. Stacks goes out and they are brawling out there.. looks like we’ve got the start of a brawl.. Kodiak comes back into the ring, but Executioner cuts him off.. they’re fighting..

[Shelly]
The referee is starting to lose control of this match.. Executioner and Kodiak are brawling.. Shogun and Russ Gator are brawling and on the outside.. Stacks and Nazghul are brawling.. Nazghul just whipped Stacks into the guardrailing..

[Ed]
Hold on.. Kodiak has his Clawhold on Executioner.. and has him down on the mat.. but wait! Shogun hits Big Russ with the Palm Blow.. now, who’s legal here? Cover by Shogun.. but Kodiak has Executioner down.. referee counts.. one.. two.. three!

[Shelly]
Now wait a minute.. who’s going to get this one.. Kodiak thinks he’s won this for his team.. but Shogun is holding his hand up as well.. now they are getting into each others faces..

[Announcer]
Winners of the match…. and STILL OWA Trio Tag Team Champions.. The Crew!

[Ed]
Okay.. we have a replay.. and you can see that Shogun was tagged in by Executioner.. and Kodiak had just tagged out to Gator.. so Gator and Shogun were the legal men in the ring.. so it was a good call on the part of the referee.

[Shelly]
Well.. with a little controversy thrown in.. I don’t think MP Inc is going to sit back and wait for another title shot..

[Ed]
We have some prerecorded comments from Monica Brant who will be facing Freddy Fever in a no holds barred, falls count anywhere match. Let’s go to those comments now.

———————
(Mistress Monica Brant is sitting at the side of a large swimming pool. She’s wearing a revealing bikini (of course) which is attracting more than a fair share of stares. She lifts her sunglasses and addresses the camera.)

[Monica]
Ahh, the smell of victory. OWA superstars was only one of many places I proved my natural talents. Of course, the final obstacle course was hardly fair to the other competitors. Whipped cream, pudding, vegtable oil, fishnet…sounds like a regular weekend for me. (Monica smiles at the camera.)

But, enough jokes. Fever, Crime Spree is fast approaching. No doubt you’re little, over-cooked mind is racing with thoughts of how to beat me. Well, disco man, I’ll give you a hint…DON’T BOTHER! You’re bragging because you put Amazon Woman out of action? Please. Beating the crud out of a woman who’s already been beaten is no challenge. Defeating a REAL woman, however…(Monica smiles again.)

(Monica suddenly looks aggitated.)

But Fever’s not who should be worried about ne right now. Rykker, Wild Child, whatever the hell you want to call yourself. I hope you haven’t forgoten that I’m coming for you when all this is over. I’m going to prove you’re nothing but a coward, who took my place when the Femmes weren’t watching.

(Brant suddenly stands and walks away.)

Enough of this interview crap. I’ve got work to do.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. It is a First Blood match. The winner will be the one who makes his opponent bleed first. Introducing the competitors for this encounter. Coming down the aisle… weighing in at 230 pounds.. here is Miguel Thunder! And his opponent.. weighing 233 pounds.. this is Blackout!

[Ed]
From the crowd comes Blackout and he attacks Miguel Thunder.. and throws him from the ring.. Thunder slides back in and nails Blackout with an enzuigiri.. whip by Thunder.. he goes for a backdrop, but Blackout nails him with a faceslam..

[Shelly]
Blackout tries for a springboard dropkick, but Thunder side steps it.. Thunder drops a fist to the forehead of Blackout.. and then drives a series of punches to the forehead.. Thunder with a whip.. Blackout comes off with a back heel kick..

[Ed]
Blackout with a shoulderblock.. and he goes for a flying clothesline.. but Thunder ducks.. Thunder hits with a German suplex.. cover.. but the referee has to remind him about the rules.. Thunder with a savate kick..

[Shelly]
Cross corner whip by Thunder.. he charges in, but Blackout lifts a knee.. and Blackout with a facebite! And he’s drawing blood with that.. referee is calling for the bell, but Blackout continues to bite Thunder..

[Ed]
Tough for Thunder.. Blackout has finally let go.. and raises his hand.. he’s got Thunder’s blood on his face.. both are a mess..

[Shelly]
The ring attendants are setting up the pole for the Graffiti match coming up.. it should be an interesting encounter.

[Ed]
Lots of words and a little action between the two competitors involved already.. we’ll see how this spills into the ring. Let’s go down to ringside for the introduction to this matchup.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall and it is a Graffiti Match. The winner will be the first to retrieve the spray paint from the pole and write “You Lose” on his opponents back. Here are the competitors. First, coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 255 pounds.. this is Danny Bouchard! And his opponent.. making his way to ringside.. he weighs in at 325 pounds.. this is Harvard Earl!

[Ed]
This match fits right in to the Crime Spree theme.

[Shelly]
Absolutely. The key is getting the spray paint, which is dangling from the pole in the corner. There is nothing in the rules, that say you can’t use that can as a weapon once you get it. The second part is knocking your opponent out long enough to spray “You Lose” on his back.

[Ed]
There’s the bell and Earl goes right for the pole.. but Bouchard grabs him by his tights.. and *chuckle* We’ve just seen more of Harvard Earl than we planned..

[Shelly]
No full moon jokes, okay Ed?

[Ed]
I promise. *chuckle* Bouchard with a kick to the midsection.. Whip by Bouchard and a clothesline.. Another whip, but Harvard comes off with a shoulderblock.. then another.. and this time Bouchard nails him with a belly to belly suplex.

[Shelly]
Jawbreaker by Bouchard.. and another! Bouchard starts to climb up the corner towards that can.. but Harvard gets up and nails Bouchard with a double ax handle to the back. Belly to back suplex off the turnbuckle by Harvard.

[Ed]
Bouchard climbs up.. but instead of climbing the pole.. jumps and tries to bat the can loose.. Harvard gets to his feet and looks around.. Bouchard bats the can again and it flies off into the first row.. a fan picks it up and throws it towards the ring, but it goes underneath.

[Shelly]
Harvard dives out of the ring and goes in search of the can.. Bouchard jumps down from the turnbuckle and heads to the outside.. picking up a chair.. he runs around the side of the ring, and Harvard comes around the corner with a kick to the chair with snaps back and hits Bouchard in the face.

[Ed]
Harvard picks up the can and pulls the cap off.. he shakes it a bit and flips over Bouchard with his foot. He starts to spray.. Y.. O… U… Bouchard brings up his foot and hits Earl in the groin, causing him to drop the can..

[Shelly]
Bouchard wipes at his back and sees the paint.. he picks up the can and bring it down across the head of Earl.. and again.. he rolls Earl back into the ring.. he rolls Earl onto his front and begins to spray.. Y.. O.. U.. L.. O…

[Ed]
He’s going to get it.. NO! Earl turns around and nails Bouchard with a kick to the head. Earl nails Bouchard with a clothesline. Earl goes for the can, but Bouchard clips him. Bouchard goes to the top turnbuckle, but Earl nails him in the midsection and Bouchard straddles the turnbuckle.

[Shelly]
Earl climbs up on the second turnbuckle.. and OH! Earl is bashing the head of Bouchard against that steel post! Harvard Earl climbs up and superplexes Bouchard to the mat! Earl crawls over and takes the can and flips Bouchard over. He bashes Bouchard in the back of the head and then writes.. L.. O.. S… E.. He’s done it!

[Ed]
The referee is calling for the bell.. and Harvard Earl has taken this match.. let’s get the official decision!

[Announcer]
The winner of the match in 14:55… Harvard Earl!

[Wolfgang]
Alright Augustus, you beggar. Pretend those are Asian Invasion! *chuckle*

[The Baron looks up as the Myers comes closer]

[Wolfgang]
Hello Myers, I’m glad you’ve showed up. I’ve got a few things on my mind. Davey Scott against the OWA. That was a great display of heart and I agree with Mr. America totally. Davey Scott is Davey Scott, and THAT’S who I go to see wrestle. Davey earned his wings tonight and my respect. I’m not sure it matters to him much, but I’d team with him any time.

[Myers Watterson]
Is that a tag team offer Baron?

[Wolfgang]
Take it as you will Myers, only Davey can make that decision. I said I had a few things. Listen up Asian “Rug Boy” Invasion, I’m not much on MP, Inc. but I’ll tell you, I can’t wait to see Masked Plague toss you around the ring like the loser you are. And if he can’t, I’ll be ringside to make sure the job is done right! And remember, I’ve still got that little present waiting for you! I’ll see you soon Rug Boy! The Maltese Cross Deathlock is waiting!

[The Baron shakes Myers hand then turns and strolls off with Augustus]

This match is one fall and it is a qualifying match for Press Your Luck!

[Ed]
The commissioner drops another surprise on us.. Press Your Luck is the PPV coming in June and it features a 16 wrestler tournament. This match means that someone will advance to that tournament!

[Announcer]
Coming down the aisle.. being accompanied to the ring by Pooh.. he weighs in at 380 pounds.. this is Masked Plague! And his opponent.. making his way to ringside.. he weighs 230 pounds.. this is Asian Invasion!

[Shelly]
Asian Invasion has had quite a few words for MP Inc as a whole lately.. we’ll see how he fares against a much larger Masked Plague. There’s the bell.. Plague sets Pooh in the corner for safe keeping.. but as soon as his back is turned Asian Invasion attacks him!

[Ed]
Invasion with a series of headbutts and then whips Plague into the turnbuckle.. clothesline by Asian Invasion.. Invasion sets up and nails a double underhook piledriver.. and covers Masked Plague.. though a little nonchalantly. One… kickout by Plague. Wolfgang Von Richter is trying to come to ringside, but officials are making him go back to the locker room.

[Shelly]
Invasion with a whip.. reversal by Plague.. and Plague with a tilt a whirl suplex! Reverse neckbreaker by Plague.. Plague off the ropes, but Invasion catches him with a belly to belly suplex.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Plague..

[Ed]
Invasion applies an abdominal stretch.. and leans back to use the ropes! Referee is asking Plague about submitting and doesn’t see the infraction. Plague tries to hiptoss, but Invasion hangs on to the ropes.. the referee catches that and makes him break.

[Shelly]
Invasion off the ropes and hits Plague with a clothesline.. off the ropes again.. but Plague drops him with a clothesline of his own. Plague nails him with a flying clothesline.. and delivers a jackknife powerbomb!

[Ed]
Masked Plague is calling for his finisher and leans down to pull up Invasion.. but Invasion with a rake to the eyes.. and a jawbreaker.. he moves over to the corner.. and.. he’s going to Pooh..

[Shelly]
This could be trouble.. Plague spots it and goes over to catch him.. Invasion and Plague are fighting over the doll.. Plague gets it and cracks it on the head of Invasion!

[Ed]
The ref is calling for the bell.. looks like we’ve got a disqualification..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match and advancing to Press Your Luck.. Asian Invasion!

[The camera cuts to a hallway in a hospital. There's an open door there, and inside the room behind it we can see Wendy Ryker sitting on an examination table while a doctor is prodding and poking her in various spots.]

[Doctor]
Okay… Does this hurt?

[Wendy]
OW! [CENSORED] YEAH, it hurts!

[She glares at the man, who ignores it completely and just continues his examination.]

[Doctor]
Hmm… And how about this?

[Wendy]
OUCH!!! OW! STOP THAT!

[The doctor stands up, then walks over to the other side of the room and looks at some x-ray pictures before turning back to Wendy.]

[Doctor]
Well, you don’t have any serious injuries. Just a lot of bruises. You were _lucky_, young lady, and quite frankly I’m of half a mind to consider pulling the OWA into court for recklessly endangering the health of their employees and wasting our time with injuries which could easily have been avoided. AND furthermore…..

[Wendy]
Geez, doc. Settle down, will ya? Hell, we _all_ wanted that match. Don’t blame the suits for this one. If they hadn’t put us in there to fight it out we might have decided to do basically the same thing in a regular match, and then others might have gotten in the way and gotten hurt as well…..

[She winks at the doctor.]

[Wendy]
And anyway, it was _fun_!

[Doctor]
I beg your pardon? Fun? You call that fun? Why, in _my_ day young ladies didn’t get into wild bar brawls. In _my_ day…..

[Wendy]
We ain’t in the dark ages no more, doc. Anyways, I’m okay and free to go, right?

[Doctor]
Hmph… Yes, you are free to go, although I wouldn’t chew anything _too_ hard for the next couple of days. Your jaw took some serious bruising when it hit the bar. Stick to soup until it feels better. And if it doesn’t feel better in the next few days then you see a doctor about it right away!

[Wendy]
Doc, ya worry too much. I’ve been in worse shape than this more times than I care to count… And usually that’s just the result of one _hell_ of a party. Now, how’s Rache doing?

[Doctor]
Miss Ryan got some pretty deep cuts, and we’ll want to keep her for observation tonight, but I expect she’ll be able to leave tomorrow. No more fighting for a week or so though.

[Wendy]
Guess that means I’m gonna have to get into trouble all by my lonesome for a little while then.

[The doctor looks like he'd prefer to tie Wendy down to a hospital bed and leave her there until she "comes to her senses", but says nothing.]

[Wendy]
And how ’bout the boys?

[Doctor]
The boys?

[Wendy]
Yeah. Danny and Johnny. How are those two doing?

[Doctor]
Well… Mr. Maxx is in much the same shape as you. Just a lot of bruises and cuts. Mr. Blades does have a serious concussion though, and he too will be out for a little while, like Miss Ryan.

[Wendy]
Okay. Good to hear it’s nothing serious then. After all, they put up one _hell_ of a fight. See ya ’round, doc.

[She jumps off the table and walks out of the door where she turns to face the camera.]

[Wendy]
Well, boys. Ya came out on top in the end. Congratulations, guys. No hard feelings as far as I’m concerned. You gave us the fight of our lives, and I for one had a _lot_ of fun in the process. You two are okay in my book.

[She grins, then winces and rubs her jaw a little.]

[Wendy]
Oow… I may just take that doctor’s advice and stay with a liquid diet for the next couple of days… Man, Danny. That shot on the bar came out of nowhere. Nice goin’, man. Never even saw it coming. Anyways, it’s good to know the belts are in the hands of a couple of guys who’ll fight every bit as ferociously for ‘em as Rache and I ever did…. Of course, I wouldn’t get _too_ attached to them. We may decide to pay you guys a visit again sometime in the future.

[She chuckles.]

[Wendy]
Anyways, there’s one more thing I’ve got to talk about before I go and get me some well-deserved rest. Little Missy Brant. The whining brat of the OWA. Ya know, Monica, you seem to have some strange idea that I should be _worried_ about you “coming for me”. Now ain’t _that_ just the funniest thing ya ever heard?

[Wendy grins again.]

[Wendy]
It seems to me that all we hear from you lately, Monica, is how you’re gonna beat up Wendy Ryker for taking your place. How you’re gonna get revenge on the Femmes by taking out the Wild Child. How you’re gonna How you got stabbed in the back when they brought in me. Well, Monica, you’re right. I _did_ replace you. I replaced you and made ya obsolete. You’re old news, girl, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

[Another grin.]

[Wendy]
So, you come on down, Missy Brant. You come on down and show everyone how “bad” and “dangerous” you are. Hell, I’m not _that_ hard to find. Any time, girl. Anywhere. It’d be _my_ pleasure to tear that pretty little face off ya and feed it to ya. Ta ta for now, hon.

[Announcer]
This match is one fall and it is for the Internet Championship. Coming down the aisle.. he weighs in at 280 pounds.. this is the Rainbow Warrior! And his opponent.. accompanied to the ring by giant, Gustaffson.. weighing in at 129 pounds.. she’s the Internet Champion.. this is “The Latin Lover” Consuelo Salyards!

[Ed]
This is Consuelo Salyards’ second title defense of the night.. She’s had time to shower and relax for maybe 25 minutes. And she’s right back in the swing of things. This time she’s taking on Rainbow Warrior. There’s the bell and we’re set for this matchup.

[Shelly]
This has to be a little frustrating for Consuelo Salyards. She’s already beaten one of the top contenders and she still has two more to go through before she can go home tonight. Lock up.. Salyards with the whip.. she goes for a spinebuster, but Warrior nails her with a swinging neckbreaker.

[Ed]
Rainbow Warrior hits her with a piledriver.. Consuelo is in big trouble here.. she’s starting to show fatigue in this match. Cover.. one.. two… kickout by Consuelo. Whip by Warrior, Consuelo comes off with a drop kick..

[Shelly]
Salyards with a headscissors takedown.. she goes off the ropes, and goes for a flying somersault splash, but Warrior rolls away.. Warrior pulls her to her feet and nails her with a belly to belly suplex. Gutwrench suplex by Warrior..

[Ed]
Body slam by the Warrior.. and a doctor bomb.. cover.. one.. two.. th.. kickout by Consuelo.. Warrior with a whip.. he goes for a backdrop… Consuelo with a leap frog and off the other side hits with a flying bulldog! Cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Warrior..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match and STILL Internet Champion.. Consuelo Salyards!

[Executioner is seen giving Shogun a high five, Stacks is giving Monty a rub down getting him ready for his match]

[Executioner]
Great match Shogun, we knew M.P INC would be a challenge even with Monty in there but man you proved you’re worth in there tonight, personally I wasn’t worried at all but you know Stacks she worries about everything..

[Stacks]
Hey Ex.. watch what you’re saying over there, remember who signs you’re paychecks…

[Executioner and Stacks both smile and wink at each other, Stacks continues to work on Monty]

[Executioner]
Ha Ha Alright darling, M.P. Inc nice match tonight you put up a good fight, but we don’t plan on losing these Trio belts for a while they just look to nice at the Mansion… but anytime you want a rematch boys bring it on and we will whoop you around again….

[Shogun]
That’s right the Crew is the best thing going in the OWA at this time, and we can’t be stopped, tonight was just a fill in job for me I figured if I couldn’t get my hands on MR. A. and win back my belt then I might as well kick some hillbilly ass.. But don’t be fooled the Mighty Shogun is not a tag team wrestler I just did this for my friends and stablemates, when Crime Spree is over I will be coming back for a Championship Belt… And when I hit you with the Palm Blow no one gets up.. isn’t that right Big Russ?…

[Shogun and Executioner walk over to Stacks and Monty whooping it up]
—————-
[Ed]
We’re ready to go to the roof for that match up there. There will be no referees up on top. Anything goes. There is a referee on the outside.. who’ll stop the match when someone falls. Here’s a helicopter shot of the roof of the Kingdome. Completely surrounded by the caging, except for a single door.

[Shelly]
This camera shot tells it all.. the drop from the roof.. to the ground. The official on the roof.. starts the match, and then gets out of the way.. Now, if you take a look at the roof.. you’ll see a 6-foot edge all the way around.. then it starts to dome up to the middle. They’re going to have to wrestle on this 6 foot edge.

[Ed]
No danger of them falling off the wrong side, but there isn’t much room there. America charges Virgo and they are brawling. America on top with a series of punches.. then Virgo pushes him over and wails on him for a few moments.

[Shelly]
America with an eye gouge and Virgo stumbles back.. America pushes him up against the cage and nails him with several blows to the midsection.. and Virgo drops. America with a chokehold.. and Virgo hits with a low blow and America staggers back and falls…

[Ed]
Virgo grabs America by the hair and drags him to the cage and pushes his face into it.. then rubs his face across it.. and Mr. America is now bleeding.. Virgo with a whip, sending America into the cage.. Virgo with a kneedrop onto the fallen America and America is just a mess.

[Shelly]
Virgo grabs America by the arm and tries to drag him around the dome.. he has to get this action to the other side of the dome where the opening is.. America grabs at the cage with his fingers.. Virgo stomps on the hamstring of America.

[Ed]
Virgo goes for another low blow, but America blocks it and rakes the face of Virgo. America with a chokehold! He gets to his knees and rams the head of Virgo into the dome.. and again and again.. and Virgo is now bleeding profusely.

[Shelly]
This one is not going to be a pretty one. I’m glad the OWA only does this stuff once a year! Mr. America picks up Virgo and drops him down with a powerbomb.. and Virgo isn’t moving.. America pulls Virgo around.. they’re about half way to the opening at that point..

[Ed]
And getting closer all the time.. Virgo is coming to and trips up America who falls forward and Virgo tries to float over the top of him grabs him by the hair and slams his head into the floor.. or I should say ceiling to this capacity crowd.

[Shelly]
Virgo pulling up Mr. America.. and nails him with a faceslam on the hard surface! And again, he pulls America towards the opening.. America looks very groggy.. this match is very brutal.. he wipes blood from his face.. and tries to stop Virgo from dragging him.

[Ed]
Virgo turns and stomps America a couple of times to the head.. and tries to drag again, but America is pulling back.. Virgo goes for another stomp, but America catches the leg and pushes back and Virgo falls backwards onto his head.

[Shelly]
America staggers to his feet and picks up Virgo and sets him up! Oh dear! Piledriver by Mr. America! America checks to see where the door is.. and then begins to drag a limp Virgo towards it. Mr. America is right there at the opening and all he needs to do is get Virgo out of it.

[Ed]
Virgo is coming around.. Mr. America is trying to lift him up.. Virgo grabs the front of America shirt and pulls.. Mr America falls through the door! It’s.. NO!! Mr. America has grabbed the cage and is hanging out there! Virgo is lying on the floor.. he thinks it’s over..

[Shelly]
The sound of this crowd when Mr. America went through that door was incredible.. almost a hush.. Mr. America is trying to get back onto the roof.. Virgo sees him and begins to kick at him.. America still hanging on.. Virgo kicks at the finger of Mr. America..

[Ed]
Virgo isn’t going to get America to let go that way.. he moves over and tries to pry the finger of Mr. America from the cage.. and.. and.. he does it! Mr. America falls to the padding below! This one is over and we have a NEW TV Champion!

[Announcer back inside the building]
The winner of the match and NEW OWA TV Champion.. is Virgo!

[Ed]
I’ve never seen anything like that in all my life!

[Shelly]
It’ll be interesting to get an interview with Mr. America after that.. I’d like to know just how he felt when he was falling.

[Ed]
We’ll have the special challenge tag team match right after this brief intermission.

[Myers]
I’m back in the locker room with Biff Franklin, who’ll be returning to the ring after a 3 year absence.. Biff.. how are you feeling and are you ready for Crime Spree?

[Biff]
Watterson? Who let you in here? Why are you asking me stupid questions for? I had to wrestle so I’ll wrestle and not only that, I’m pissed and Ricky Hype and Tal-ee-us.. are going to get their butts kicked and I’ll go back into retirement and that’ll be that!

[Myers]
No ring rust, Biff?

[Biff]
Shuddup! I’m a veteran in that ring. I don’t get ring rust, I just get better with age, pal. Now get lost.. I gotta get to the ring!
———
[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First, coming down the aisle.. weighing in at a total combined weight of 550 pounds.. This is the team of Johnny Stallion.. and Biff Franklin! And their opponents.. weighing in at a total combined weight of 502 pounds. This is the team of Taleis and Ricky Hype!

[Ed]
This match should be an interesting one. Neither of these teams have ever teamed together. However the question mark is the skill of Biff Franklin. Former OWA Tag Team Champion at one time, but he’s been retired for several years.

[Shelly]
Franklin has no trouble letting Stallion go into the ring first.. it’ll be Ricky Hype against Johnny Stallion. There’s the bell. Franklin hollers to Stallion, “Go get him”. Uh huh. Mighty brave of the Biffster right there.

[Ed]
Lock up.. Stallion with a whip.. Hype comes off with a clothesline.. and drops a knee to the forehead of Stallion.. Stallion to his feet and walks right into a swinging neckbreaker. Diving shoulderblock by Hype and Stallion goes to the outside to break the momentum.

[Shelly]
Ricky Hype is on fire tonight. Stallion and Franklin are regrouping.. Stallion gets back in the ring.. another lock up and Stallion with a body slam. Dropkick by Stallion and a Frankensteiner.. and Hype is down.. Stallion tags in Franklin.

[Ed]
This ought to be good. Franklin with a couple of stomps to the head of Hype.. and a facerake.. and he’s biting him now.. Biff sure is in shape, isn’t he? *chuckle* Chokehold, for crying out loud, has he forgotten everything?

[Shelly]
Looks like that.. he tags back in Stallion.. who misses with a clothesline.. Hype tags in Taleis.. who comes in and nails Stallion with a spin kick. Russian legsweep by Taleis.. cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Taleis..

[Ed]
Taleis tags back in Ricky Hype.. who goes off the ropes.. but Franklin pulls down the top rope.. and Hype goes out over the top to the floor and Biff nails him with a kneedrop from the apron to the back of the head. Biff grabs a chair and cracks Hype with it.

[Shelly]
Taleis has come into the ring and he and Stallion are battling.. and Biff has applied the Asiatic spike to Hype! Here comes Anthony Hazard down the aisle.. and Biff Franklin is on the run.. he flies around that ring and heads towards the back with Hazard right at his heels.

[Ed]
I didn’t think that Biff could run that fast.. in the ring.. Taleis just nailed Stallion with the Military Press Diamond Cutter! One.. two.. three! Ricky Hype has been busted open and is out on the floor out here… Taleis is going out to check on him..

[Announcer]
Winner of the match, in 9:21, the team of Taleis and Ricky Hype.

[Shelly]
Biff may not have very many wrestling moves left in his rep, but that Asiatic Spike is very very dangerous. And you see the effects of it right there.. Anthony Hazard has come back.. I’ve no idea whether or not he caught Biff or not, but I would venture that he hasn’t.

[Ed]
Taleis and Hazard are helping up a very bloody Hype and are helping him to the back..

(Sitting in the back of the arena, you see Asian Invasion with an ice bag on his knee and lounging in a large reclining chair that obviously doesn’t belong in the dingy locker room. He’s spots the camera, smiles, reaches behind him, and pulls out a piece of poster board with THE WAY IT IS elaborately written on it.)

[Asian Invasion]
Well, it’s about time you guys came back here to talk to me. I gotta tell, it’s been one hell of a night so far. GOOD GOD, did you see that bar room brawl!!! Sweet match…

(adjusts ice on his knee and continues)

Anyway, hey Red Baron, you sure as hell can’t go long without talking about me can you??? Good, I like that. So, looks to me that all of the sudden, you and America have all of the sudden fallen in love with Mr. Respect haven’t you??? Well good, it’s obvious that Scott has balls, which he does, since he lacks a brain, that’s what’s probably taking up that empty space inside his head. Baron, you don’t bother me, bring on all your little “surprises”, I can’t wait. Next, looks to me like Virgil, or is it Virgo, anyway, America lost my belt. That’s a damn shame, I would have loved a match with him, but, looks like it’ll have to be Virgy. You know what, it makes NO difference to me, a wins a win. Oh, and I’d like to welcome the OWA’s newest, or is he technically the oldest??? Anyway, Mr. Adam Sanchez, welcome to the new and improved OWA, I tell ya, anyone that has his heart set on taking out Ryan he a man after my own heart. Well, it looks like there ready for our next match, that’s The Way It Is, back to Ed and Shelly at .. what the!?!?!

[From the side, Wolfgang Von Richter attacks Asian Invasion with a chair and busts him wide open.. Von Richter then clamps on his Chinlock Deathlock Submission!.. security comes along with some officials to try to break up the chaos. The camera eventually cannot see what's going on and goes back to Ed and Shelly]
————-
[Ed]
Von Richter not too happy with Asian Invasion and there is a brawl going on in the back.

[Shelly]
They’ve finally separated the two… I think we’re going to go now to Harvard Earl, victorious earlier in the card.
————-
[Harvard]
Well Daniel, it seems I have been right all along haven’t I? You French people are lacking in the brains department and once again I have exploited a lack of intelligence and turned it into a lop sided win for myself. I truly am the master of ring strategy and I have Th skill to back it up. You Daniel, have neither of those, and I proved that tonight.

I did not attack you after your first lesson, I would not give you any excuses, you came out here tonight 100% and were simply put, beaten by the better man. I hope you live with it and decide you are better off in some garbage hauling business when your lack of brains and potty mouth would be not only acceptable, but the “in” thing.

Unless you have something to add Daniel, I’m finished with you.

I think I have been proving myself left and right here OWA. I am personally very sick of being ignored. Not once have I been on one of your precious TV cards, not once have I been given a chance at any championships, you have completely ignored by greatness only because you know I would make a fool out of your so called “superstars” and make your little executive committee resemble a cage full of dumb apes! I want to see my face on TV soon or there will be hell to pay!

You have heard how many people ordered this Pay Per View, all due to my great ability to create an atmosphere around a match. Well, now that the main event is over and Harvard is out of the ring for tonight, they should all go home!

Last thing, Virgo, do not think I have forgotten about our little trash match. You and I will wrestle and the loser will spend one week in a dumpster. Now I will finally be able to take out the trash, and this time the trash will be the TV Champion.

Good Day. There is nothing left of interest for me here.

[Harvard takes a drink of champagne and his entourage leads him away.]

[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First, coming down the aisle.. being led to the ring by his manager, Sir Goodwin. He weighs in at 230 pounds.. here is The Shocker! And his opponent.. coming down the aisle with the giant, Gustaffson.. she weighs in at 167 pounds.. here is.. Mariko!

[Ed]
These two are no strangers to one another.. they’ve wrestled many times and I’m sure they’ll wrestle again. There’s the bell and we’re off and running. Lock up.. no.. Mariko nails him with a chop! Then a double ax handle chop and then a spin kick by Mariko and Shocker is down.

[Shelly]
Mariko goes for a camel clutch and pulls it back.. The Shocker gets his arms free and now it’s mostly a reverse chinlock. Shocker up to his knees and then his feet and he drives Mariko back into the turnbuckles. Shocker with a short clothesline out of the corner.

[Ed]
The Shocker whips Mariko into the ropes.. and hits a clothesline and then an atomic drop! Shocker goes for his Sleeperhold, but Mariko nails him with a backward kick. Mariko with a spin kick on Shocker.. and a belly to back suplex. Reverse cradle by Mariko! One.. two.. kickout by Shocker.

[Shelly]
Mariko up and nails a vertical suplex.. and another cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Shocker. Shocker to his feet and Mariko nails him with her Spinning Crescent Kick! But Shocker is carried up and over the top rope and to the floor!

[Ed]
Incredible force behind that kick.. Referee begins his count.. Shocker slow to get to his feet. He starts to climb up and Mariko comes over, but Shocker grabs her legs and pulls her under… and out of the ring. Shocker with a forearm smash.. and Shocker whips Mariko into the guardrailing, but Mariko bounces back with a clothesline.

[Shelly]
Both competitors are down! Shocker is slowly getting to his feet.. as is Mariko.. Mariko takes a swing at Shocker who avoids it.. and nails her with a kick.. the referee is calling for the bell.. I think we have a double count-out.

[Ed]
But these two are still going at it.. fighting up the aisle.. officials are coming down to separate the two..

[Announcer]
The referee has ruled this match a double count-out.

[Shelly]
The officials are finally regaining control of this very competitive match. Let’s go to the back where Elaine Bryant has caught up with Mr. America!
————
[Mr. America walks towards his locker room door as Elaine Bryant catches up to him.]

[Elaine]
Mr. America, can I get a few words from you after the Roof Match tonight?

[Mr. America]
You saw the match. I lost. It’s as simple as that.

[Elaine]
Well, do you have anything to say?

[Mr. America]
Not really. Sure, I lost the match and lost the TV title to Virgo. There are still three other belts floating around here and I don’t need to concentrate on one belt. Plus, on the upside it frees up my schedule so that Tom and I can tag and shoot for the Maxx and Blades.

[Elaine]
Well a lot of the people want to know what it was like falling from the roof to the padding below.

[Mr. America]
The padding is still there to go take a jump and find out.

[Elaine]
Well…

[Mr. America]
If it had been any other situation I probably would have been giving the Gator Clan call, but falling meant I lost. You do the math.

[Elaine]
Well…it seems that you’re not really in a good mood.

[Mr. America]
Mood has nothing to do with it. I have other things that are more important right now. Virgo was the better man. I knew someone would have my number sooner or later, but I had just hoped it wasn’t Virgo. Frankly, I’d like to see Virgo wrestle every Sunday and see who it is that dethrones him. I did pretty good as a champion. The only thing I regret is my match with Hazard…and that has yet to be paid back in full. By the way, I still say you and Ed would make a great couple. Though I think Shelly is trying to move onto your “territory”.

[Mr. America smirks.]

[Mr. America]
Actually though, I’ve come to think about something as of late. I was never one to actually believe that there was some greater plan for me out there. Well I think I have finally found it. I still believe that I control my own destiny…but my destiny surely has crossed the path of others. Now if you’ll excuse me. I’d like to get changed and cleaned up.

[Mr. America walks into the locker room area.]

[Elaine]
Back to you Ed and Shelly.

(Camera comes up on Consuelo Salyards, in the locker room with Myers.)

[Myers]
Two down, one to go, huh Consuelo?

[Consuelo]
Yeah, looks like it’s me and you, Billy. Coming to the big dance one more time to get your ass kicked? Look, Billybob, it’s like this: Tom Tomorrow came down and tried to match speed with me. He’s back taking a shower now. No gold. Rainbow Warrior came down and tried to overpower me. He’s back taking a shower now. No gold. So you just bring your little “hardcore” no-talent ass to the ring, and you’ll go home packing no gold too. You suck, you’re a loser, and I’m going to beat your ass raw.

[Myers]
The Latin Lover on a tear through this King of the Hill match…perhaps the King of the Hill tonight is actually the Queen of the Hill….back to you.

(Rachel Ryan is sitting propped up in her hospital bed, her forehead bandaged, her thick blonde hair tied back in a ponytail. A television shows the OWA Channel, which is recapping events from Crime Spree. The replay of Adam Sanchez’ match concludes, and then Sanchez takes the mic:)

[Sanchez]
OWA… I am back! And I’m back for one reason! Rachel Ryan.. you are not the Enforcer! I am! I was the first to hold that title. I was on of the first to hold the OWA Championship! I was one of the first to hold the OWA Tag Titles! I was wrestling before Ryan was even thinking about training! Shortly before my disappearance from the OWA, I was betrayed by my tag team partner, Devastator. His attacks upon me forced me to retire to Japan and Mexico where I have been studying under the greatest teacher on the face of the earth. Now, along with my Arizona toughness, no wrestler can best me! Ryan has stolen my moniker. She’s a disgrace to the name as it is, but I’m back to put things straight! Ryan! We’re on a collision course! Be ready!

(Ryan mutes the television, then turns to the camera.)

[Ryan]
I got two things to say. First, Extremists, that was one helluva match! I wish I could throw down like that every week. I won’t lie–I figured me’n Wendy’d win–but damn, it’s good to find a couple of hombres tough enough to hang with us. I got no problem sayin’ you two were better than us this time. But you were only better by THIS much–(she holds her thumb and forefinger about half an inch apart)–and if we decide to come after you two again, things might just be different. So enjoy those tag straps, boys. You earned ‘em. And we might just earn ‘em right back, so stay ready!

(She smiles, her eyes twinkling.)

[Rachel]
And just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, here comes a guy with “Arizona toughness”, ready to take me on! Woo! I am LOVIN’ this! Do you realize how long it’s been since somebody’s had the stones to call my name? Before Wendy ‘n me started taggin’, I was gettin’ lonely ’cause nobody wanted to come out and play! And now, I got this has-been, Sanchez, sayin’ that he’s the original Enforcer, and that I’ve stolen that title. I got news for ya, son! You’re lookin’ at one of the longest-tenured OWA champions, and up until recently one-half of the tag champs! I kick more tail in one weekend than you do in a month, jack! I understand what you’re about–I mean, you’ve been out of the circuit for God knows how long, and now you wanna get back in, and make a name for yourself at my expense. Tough! It ain’t gonna happen!

(She shakes her head.)

[Rachel]
Whether you like it or not, *I* am the Enforcer, you piece’a trash! If you want the nick back, you come and take it from me! I don’t give a [CENSORED] about this bandage, if you wanna come down her to the hospital and do it in the emergency room, I’ll be waitin’ to stomp a mudhole in your ass and walk it dry! You name the time and place, loser, and we’ll make it happen!

(The door to her room opens, and in walks Wendy Ryker, carrying a six-pack of Miller Light.)

[Wendy]
Easy, Rache. Don’t get too worked up over that moron, he ain’t worth it.

[Rachel]
Wendy! Your jaw okay?

(Wendy seats herself on the bed.)

[Wendy]
Yep, the doctors say it’ll be fine. They want me to stay on a liquid diet for a little while, so…(she pops the top on a brew and hands it to Rachel, then takes one herself)…I’m just following doctor’s orders!

[Rachel]
I’ll drink to that! (They clink their cans together, and take a swig as the view fades.)
—————-
[Announcer]
This match is one fall, and it is a no hold barred, falls count anywhere match! The winner of the match will go to Press Your Luck to face the OWA Champion. Coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 245 pounds.. he’s the “Disco Kid” Freddy Fever!

[Freddy Fever comes down the aisle.. then at the last moment.. he crouches behind the steel railing, right by the aisle way.]

[Announcer]
And his opponent.. coming down the aisle.. she weighs in at 157 pounds.. this is Mistress Monica Brant!

[Monica heads down the aisle, but stops halfway. She doesn't see Fever in the ring. She cautiously moves from side to side, looking into the crowd for him. She gets to the floor and turns back towards the way she came and Fever blindsides her with a clothesline.]

[Ed]
Freddy Fever right off the bat with a clothesline on Monica.. and this match is underway. Monica gets to her feet and Fever comes at her.. she swings that purse and nails Fever with it and he slumps to the ground. Brant immediately goes for the cover on the floor. One.. two.. thre.. NO! Fever kicks out!

[Shelly]
Brant is cursing the official, she was sure this match was going to be that short. She pulls up Fever by the hair and whips him to the guardrailing. She whips him to the other side as well. She grabs a chair and swings, but Fever grabs it.

[Ed
They're struggling over the chair and Fever gives a kick to the midsection and just lays out Brant with that chair. Cover by Fever.. one.. two.. kickout by Brant. Fever whips Brant into the guardrailing, and Brant just flies over it and into the first two of people!

[Shelly]
Fans are scattering.. and Fever hops over the guardrailing and whips Brant across and over the guardrailing again… Brant lands in the aisle way. Fever hops over and pulls up Brant.. who nails Fever with a low blow! Brant sets up Fever.. and nails him with a Tombstone on the floor!

[Ed]
Cover by Brant.. one.. two.. kickout by Fever.. Brant slow to get up.. she pulls up Fever.. and whips him.. into the TV Wall! OH MY! Good thing those TV are name brand. Another cover by Brant. One.. two.. kickout by Fever.. she kicks him in the midsection.. and then whips him through the curtain.. and they are fighting back towards the locker rooms.

[Shelly]
We’re getting a camera back there as quickly as we can.. there is it.. Brant pushes Fever and he grabs onto Monica, and they both tumble down the concrete steps.. neither wrestler is moving.. Referee is checking them.. Brant glances about.. and slowly gets to her feet..

[Ed]
This narrow hallway leads to the locker rooms of the wrestlers.. Brant rams the head of Fever into the wall.. and goes for another cover… one.. two.. kickout.. Brant goes to ram the head of Fever into one of the doors, but Fever blocks it and sends Brant into it.

[Shelly]
That, I believe, is the Elite locker room right there.. Fever again sends Brant into the door and it flies open.. Fever pushes Brant into the locker room.. get that camera in there! Brant slow to get to her feet as she uses a locker for leverage, but Fever opens a locker and slams it open into the head of Brant! Brant is busted open!

[Ed]
Anthony Hazard has come to see what all the commotion is about.. and stands back out of the way.. Fever picks up Brant.. and powerbombs her on a bench! Fever straddles and covers her on the bench.. one.. two.. kickout… The Shocker and Sir Goodwin have appeared as well.

[Shelly]
Fever doesn’t even notice them.. Fever back up into Hazard and turns around and gives him a big push, knocking him to the ground.. Hazard is up like a flash, but Goodwin and Shocker, along with several officials try to hold him back!

[Ed]
Fever turns back towards Monica who nails him with a metal clipboard! Brant with a cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Fever.. Brant whips Fever into the hallway and Fever hits the wall face first! Brant whips Fever into the exit door and it flies open and Fever hits the pavement.

[Shelly]
Are they aloud to go out of the building?

[Ed]
It’s my understanding that they can go anywhere in Seattle…

[Shelly]
Brant rams the head of Fever into the dumpster.. and then moves around and tries to run Fever over with it! Fever rolls to the side and struggles to get to his feet.. Brant approaches Fever, but Fever throws a handful of dirt into the eyes of Brant and then nails her with a clothesline.

[Ed]
Fever with an Irish whip, and Brant hits the wall back first.. She’s trying to get her eyes open, but she’s blinded by that dirt. Fever sets her up.. and slams her on the hood of a car.. and drives an elbow to her throat.

[Shelly]
Fever’s getting on top of the car.. and OH! He’s gonna suplex her on the car.. NO!! Brainbuster onto the hood! Brant rolls off the car to the floor and Fever follows and covers her.. one.. two.. three!!! It’s over! I can’t believe it!

[Ed]
Freddy Fever defeats Monica Brant in this grueling encounter.. and he’s going to Press Your Luck to meet the OWA Champion in the main event.

[Myers Watterson]
This is Myers Watterson and we’re here inside The Baron, Wolfgang Von Richter’s locker room. Baron, can we get a comment on your recent aggression towards Asian Invasion?

[The Baron is eating another footlong and leans over towards his great Dane, Augustus. The Dane reaches up and gives The Baron a very gooey kiss before taking the remaining dog and wolfing it down]

[Wolfgang]
Good little puppy. Sure Myers, I’ll comment. I’ve been very quiet since joining the OWA and it’s become evident that to get anywhere here you sometimes must to stoop to the levels of people like Asian “Rug Boy” Invasion. Just ask Anthony Hazard about it. And making a little noise now and then doesn’t hurt your chances any either. Just ask Mr. America.

[The Baron stands, takes the mic and moves closer to the camera]

[Wolfgang]
Rug Boy, I told you I had a little surprise for you didn’t I, and in the immortal words of Frosty the Snowman, HAP-PY BIRTH-DAY!! Myers, I’ve got a match with a Scorpion now so I must leave you, but let the OWA know that I AM honorable, but do not take me lightly anymore!

[The Baron walks out with his great Dane Augustus along side]
—————-
[Announcer]
This match is one fall. First, coming down the aisle.. weighing in at 354 pounds.. here is “The Baron” Lord Wolfgang Von Richter… and his opponent.. being accompanied to the ring by Masked Plague and Pooh.. weighing in at 295 pounds.. this is the Crimson Scorpion.

[Ed]
We are only 2 matches away from the main event.. after this match, is the final Internet Title match, and then the Triangle Ladder match. There’s the bell.. lock up.. Scorpion with a whip.. and Scorpion hits with a flying tomahawk.. and a crucifix cradle.. one.. kickout by Richter..

[Shelly]
Scorpion with a running forearm smash, but Richter ducks and counters with a legsweep faceslam. Von Richter with a swinging neckbreaker. The Baron with a kick to the midsection of Scorpion and a tiger driver! Cover.. one.. tw.. kickout by Scorpion.

[Ed]
The Baron goes for a chokeslam, but Scorpion counters with a facerake.. and then a forearm smash.. whip by Scorpion.. and he nails Von Richter with a kick to the midsection. Crimson Scorpion with a double underhook piledriver..

[Shelly]
Cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Von Richter. Backbreaker by Scorpion.. and then a stomachbreaker.. Scorpion with an Asai Moonsault.. but Von Richter side steps.. swinging neckbreaker by The Baron.. and a big leg drop off the ropes.

[Ed]
We have a bell.. let’s go down and see what’s going on..

[Announcer]
The time limit has expired in this match. The referee’s official decision is that this match is a draw. A draw.

[Ed]
Bummer.. let’s go to the locker room with Myers Watterson.
———–
[Myers Watterson]
We’re here in Ricky “The SHOW” Hype’s locker room. He’s not much for walking but he’s in good spirits awaiting the Ladder match.

[camera shows Ricky Hype sitting in a wheelchair watching the arena monitor. His arms and legs are limp and not moving]

[Ricky Hype leaning his head over to the mic] Hi Myers, I had to get outta that bed for the next two matches. My boy’s gonna get the belt back for the Elite tonight.

[Myers]
What about your tag match from earlier? How are you feeling?

[Ricky Hype ]
Well Myers, I can still talk a good fight. *big smile* It’s obvious when you get two cheaters on the same team it’s much easier to compliment one another. I’ll say that the Asiatic spike is a deadly weapon, but this thing ain’t over by a long shot. Franklin better watch his back and mouth from now on. He might just find himself choking on a microphone! And Stallion is on my list too! Hey look, here they come. Let’s get the “SHOW’ rolling!
——————
( Billy Smith is backstage at Crime Spree. He is in his locker room with a towel over his head and his face towards the floor. )

[Billy Smith]
Consuelo, you’ve got one more match left at the King of the Hill match, and it’s against me. The way I see it, you’ve got one of two choices, one, you can just give up that belt and save yourself some embarrassment and hand that belt over to me, or, you can get one of the worst [CENSORED] ass-kicking you ever got. Either way, I am leaving this arena with my Internet belt back across my waist.

( Billy Smith raises his head and takes off the towel to show that he is clean shaven with a short haircut )

[Billy Smith]
This is a new Billy Smith and I ain’t going to let nobody in this whole damn fed disrespect me like you all have done in the past. I am taking on all challengers with ruthless abandon. Consuelo, you are the main [CENSORED] who shows me absolutely no respect. Tonight, I will make you respect me and what I stand for. When I take that belt away from you and become a two time Internet champion, I will prove to you and to all the doubters in the OWA that Billy “Bad Ass” Smith is a force that should be feared by all. Especially when I show all of you what I have up my sleeve. All I can say for now, is worry. Consuelo, polish that belt up, cause it’s coming back where it belongs.
—————–

[Announcer]
This match is one fall.. and it is for the Internet Championship. First, the challenger.. weighing in at 275 pounds.. this is Billy.. Smith! And his opponent.. weighing in at 129 pounds.. she’s led to the ring by giant, Gustaffson.. this is the Internet Champion.. “The Latin Lover” Consuelo Salyards!

[Ed]
Consuelo Salyards is out here for the third time tonight.. getting by Tom Tomorrow and Rainbow Warrior.. and now she has to get by the person she defeated for the title, Billy Smith. And Consuelo Salyards is taking the offensive right off and attacks Billy Smith! Salyards with a whip.. and a dropkick, but Smith side steps.

[Shelly]
Billy Smith sets her up.. and nails her with a piledriver! Salyards is showing signs of fatigue at this point.. I’m not sure how long she can go on. Smith throws her to the outside and follows her out. He sets up a table.

[Ed]
Billy Smith sets up Consuelo next to the table.. lifts her up and OH MY! Powerbombs her through the table! Smith rolls her back into the ring.. and goes for the cover.. one.. two.. kickout by Consuelo.. Smith with a kick to the head.

[Shelly]
Smith with a whip.. backdrop.. no.. Salyards with a sunset flip… one.. two.. kickout by Smith. Salyards up with a crucifix.. one.. two.. kickout by Smith.. and a reverse cradle.. one.. two.. kickout by Smith.. Salyards with a crucifix.. one.. two.. three!!! She got him!!

[Ed]
Consuelo using her speed to her advantage and a series of beautiful pinning maneuvers and Billy Smith cannot keep up! Salyards with a win and she’s done the incredible!

[Announcer]
Winner of the match.. and STILL Internet Champion.. Consuelo Salyards!

[Ed]
We are getting ready for our main event. Umm.. Virgo is heading towards the ring..

[Virgo climbs into the center of the ring, and holds the belt up over his head with one hand. He takes the microphone from the announcer, and smiles.]

[Virgo]
“Alright, OWA. Let me say a few things here. First, America….I want to say to you…that was one of the biggest ass whippings I have had in a long time. You definitely have changed my view of you, America. Quite worthy are you of my respect. Thank you for that great ass kicking. I needed it.”

{Virgo looks out around the arena.}

“Shogun! Shogun, I know you’re out there. Come on in here for a moment.”

{Shogun climbs into the ring, and faces Virgo.}

“Shogun, its to you I owe many thanks and much gratitude. You gave me the support I needed to succeed through the past few weeks, and to get this victory. And I have a special thanks to give you.”

{Virgo smiles, and looks out around the crowd again.}

“Shogun….I know you want this belt. I know how much this belt means to the Crew, and it would be great for you to bring it back to them. Well, I think I can agree with that. I think its time the Crew got the TV Title back. And so…I want to bring it home, Shogun. Whatdya say? You brought me this far, bring me home, man.”

[Shogun]
Yes Virgo, I’ll bring you home…You are very honorable wrestler and would make a great addition to the Crew…You have proven yourself to us by winning the TV title….I always believed in you and knew you would come threw for the Crew. Welcome home brother!!

(Virgo and Shogun shake hands and yell THE CREW RULES!!!)

[Ed]
Looks like Virgo is the latest member for the Crew.. Back to our main event.. The top three wrestlers will compete for the OWA Championship. Last year, Rachel Ryan was the champion.. Stacks Coltrain and Anthony Hazard were the challengers.. and Hazard was just inches away from winning that match when Stacks nailed him from behind with a chair and claimed the OWA’s top championship.

[Shelly]
Again Anthony Hazard is the challenger.. as is Pretty Boy Monty.. and Traci Lane is the champion. The ladder is being brought down as we speak. Let’s go to the ring announcer for the introduction to this much anticipated encounter.

[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen.. this is your main event! It is one fall. It is a Triangle Ladder match, and it is for the OWA Championship! First.. coming down the aisle.. he’s the number two contender in the world for the OWA Championship. He weighs in at 275 pounds.. this is.. Pretty.. Boy.. Monty!!!!
———–
(Inside the locker room, The Crew is gathering for the up coming title match…)

[Executioner]
Monty are you ready…hell you have been on the phone with that shrink for the last 20 minutes?

[Stacks]
Leave him alone Ex… you know this is important to him… hell getting on that ladder is going to be the hardest part of the match….

[Executioner]
Hell, hard… I thought that parking lot match was hard… this ought to be easy for him….

[R.W]
Listen up folks. You don’t understand.. I showed him some film about last years match and he broke into a sweat, But Dr. Brothers will get him straight.

[Shogun]
Don’t worry about Monty, we know he has problems with heights but my concern is about the match, His opponents are the hard part, Me and Ex showed him that in training, Monty will be alright..

[Just then Monty walks into the room...a little stoic, and full of concentration]

[Shogun]
Monty are you ready?

[Monty]
(looks at each one of his team members) Lady and gentlemen… I have never been more ready in my life.. before I forget I just want to thank each and everyone of you for the support.. with out you I wouldn’t be here today, (looks at the Camera) OWA and its fans…are you ready for a new champion? If not so what, the belt is mine and its coming home….

(Monty leaves as his name is introduced……)
——————-
[Monty walks down the aisle and past the ladder.. he glances up it, then turns and heads into the ring.]

[Announcer]
And his opponent.. coming down the aisle.. along with his manager, Sir Goodwin. He weighs in at 207 pounds.. he’s the number one contender for the OWA Championship. This.. is Anthony Hazard..

[Hazard comes walking out wearing a black and blood red leather jacket, the words (in rhinestones) "The Legend" are on the back, he is also wearing a "Ricky Hype" T-shirt. Anthony walks straight down the middle of the walkway giving high fives to no one and shaking no one's hands. As he approaches the ringsteps, he turns, walks to the commentators table and grabs a microphone]

[Hazard]
First I’d like to congratulate the Extremists on their victory, good job guys, hope ya feel better soon.

[Crowd pops]

[Hazard]
Shocker. Looks like you woke up finally, now get your act together and start wrestling again. Now, as for the duck boy-wonder Freddy Fever. Your just freaking lucky I don’t get involved in other people’s matches, don’t mess with me pal, don’t even begin to think about it.

[Anthony takes off his jacket and the "Ricky Hype" T-shirt. He hands the jacket to the referee and places the "Ricky Hype" T-shirt on the commentators table]

[Hazard]
Here, I’ll just leave this there for Biff, I’m sure he’ll wear it with pride. Now I’ve gotta go and get one of my titles back. Traci, Girly Boy, I hope you have your VCR’s recording this at home, you know it’s not everyday you get your asses whipped by “The Legend”.

[Anthony goes to put down the microphone, then talks into it again]

[Hazard]
Oh yeah, almost forgot. Virrrrrrgooooooo, I’m coming for my belt, get ready for a pounding loser.

[Anthony throws the microphone down and slides into the ring]

[Announcer]
And their opponent.. is the current OWA Champion! She’s led down to the ring by giant Gustaffson.. she weighs in at 194 pounds.. this is.. “The Black Widow”… Traci…. Lane!

[Elaine Bryant]
I’m here with Traci lane as she makes her way to ringside. Traci, what are you feeling right now?

[Traci]
What am I feeling? Probably anticipation. I’m finally getting my hands on Hazard, and that makes me feel GOOD. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not underestimating Monty at all. But Hazard’s been writing some checks with his mouth that his legend can’t cash, and tonight I’m going to prove that.

[Elaine]
He seems to have really gotten under your skin lately with his accusations about you being a passive champion. What are your thoughts on that?

[Traci]
It’s funny what a hypocrite he’s become. He’ll scream bloody murder at loudmouths like Billy Smith, and then he’ll turn right around and accuse me of being TOO quiet and passive. I guess when you’ve lost as much importance as he has, you start to get a bit irrational.

[Elaine]
Traci, Monty’s had some strong showings of late. Are you worried about him?

[Traci]
I’d be foolish not to. Like Hazard, Monty’s credentials are numerous, and he’s a credit to the sport. He’s as likely to take this belt from me as anyone.

[Elaine]
Okay, now what about–

[Traci]
Sorry, Elaine! Gotta go!

(Traci increases her pace toward the ring, leaving Elaine behind her….)

[Traci Lane walks right by the ladder, cool and calm. She enters the ring and removes the OWA Championship and holds it high in the air. She hands it over to the referee who then attaches it to the wire and we watch it go up in the air. The bell rings]

Hazard with a sliding kick into Monty who crashes into the guardrailing. He exits the ring and goes for the ladder.. he drags it over… but from behind.. Lane dropkick him and he crashes into the ladder and to the ground with the ladder falling on top of him.

[Shelly]
Lane stands on the ladder, jumping on it with Hazard underneath.. from behind.. Monty flips Lane into the first row seats! He pulls up the ladder and starts to drag it to the ring, but Hazard grabs hold of it.. Monty then leans into the ladder pressing it into the chest of Hazard.. to tries to kick the ladder off of him.

[Ed]
Lane is stepping back over the guardrailing and slides into the ring, and reaches down and pulls Monty by the hair.. Monty releases the ladder and it crashes back down onto Hazard.. Lane suplexes Monty back into the ring.. she slides out and grabs the ladder and pulls it to the ring..

[Shelly]
She slides it into the ring, but Hazard nails her with a knee to the back, and then slams her head into the ring apron. Monty in the meantime has set up the ladder and is going for the belt. Hazard leaps into the ring and pulls Monty from the ladder and starts to go up himself.

[Ed]
Monty kicks the legs of the ladder and it falls down on top of him, bringing Hazard down as well. Lane has slowly crawled into the ring. She grabs Hazard and throws him out over the top rope.. and then delivers a couple of stomps to the head of Monty.

[Shelly]
She grabs the ladder and heads for the belt.. Monty gets to his feet and pushes the ladder, and it falls on top of Traci. Hazard slowly gets into the ring, and Monty nails him with a swinging neckbreaker. He picks up the ladder and hesitantly begins to climb…

[Shelly]
Lane sets up the ladder, but Monty clips her in the leg and she goes down.. Hazard is up.. he whips Monty into the ropes.. double clothesline, and Hazard falls into the referee!!! Both are down and Lane is going to the ladder.. she goes up.. she’s going to get it..

[Ed]
Both men are slow to get up.. Traci’s almost there! She.. She.. She’s got it!!!! There’s no referee to make the call.. Monty is slowly getting to his feet.. but he stumbles against the ladder and Traci falls from the top.. to the outside!

[Shelly]
She’s dropped the belt though.. right next to Anthony Hazard.. Hazard reaches or and grabs the belt.. and then climbs to his feet.. the referee is calling for the bell.. Hazard thinks he’s won this…

[Ed]
Traci is the one who got the belt.. A second referee has come down.. he’s conferring with the original referee.. who’s nodding in return. He tries to take the belt from Hazard who refuses to give it up. Monty is sitting in the corner, not sure what’s going on.

[Shelly]
Gustaffson is checking on Traci.. and helping her up.. she’s limping slightly.. Hazard is holding tight to that belt.. uh oh.. here comes the OWA Commissioner.. he’s grabbing the ringside mic.. and getting into the ring..

[Commish]
Hazard.. hand over that belt.

[The Commissioner reaches out and takes the belt.. who in turns hands in to the official.. who in turn goes outside and hands it to Traci Lane]

[Commish]
Now.. Mr. Hazard.. for failing to appear at the Respect Match earlier on the card, you’ve earned yourself a two week suspension. Don’t let me see your butt anywhere near an OWA event.

[Commissioner turns and heads out of the Arena.]

[Ed]
Hazard is pissed to say the least.

[Announcer]
The winner of the match and STILL OWA Champion.. Traci Lane!
