Dan "The Man" Chan: Good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome to STEEL CITY MELTDOWN 98!!!! We are LIVE from The Steel City, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I'm Dan Chan and joining me today are my collegues... [Dan is inturrupted as Macabre Tavern" by the Church begins to play, as out from behind the curtains walks James "The Don" Garibaldi in full Armani, Cynthia Garibadli in a black leather mini-skirt, and they are followed by "The Convict" Oswald Bates, wearing faded and ripped blue jeans, a white FIRM t-shirt, reading "Ozzy" on the back in blue, his AICW Extreme title over his shoulder, and white sneakers.] Dan: Here comes The Firm, with Ozzy Bates! Now remember, Ozzy is not suppose to be here! So I have no clue as to what he is doing out here! [Ozzy has a mic in hand, as the threesome makes their way to the ring] Oswald: Cut the music... [Music fades] Oswald: You see...I was scheduled to be here today! I was supposed to defend my 'jobber title' against who else, two jobbers in at three-way dance! Well...since I forfeited that title to Legion, he has replaced me, and I am not scheduled to be here... [Crowd pops] Oswald: But lookie here...I'm an here...the this pay per view is now known as the Ozzy Bates show! Dan: The Ozzy Bates show? Aw give me a break! [They enter the ring] Oswald: Hi there...[waves to referee]...so, now that I have taken over this PPV, what am I going to do? Well...you can expect me to take part in each and every one of these matches tonight, somehow. I may only be ring annoucing, special guest refereeing, or hell...maybe even a little color comemtating! Is there anyone out there that want's to play hardball with the most hardcore mother [beep] in the AICW??? ["Gettin' Jiggy Wit It" by Will Smith begins to play, as the crowd screams] Oswald: Ahhh...shut that music off. I beat the [beep] outta Pretty Boy Troy last week, and put him in the hospital! [Music dies] Oswald: So, there is no one out there man enough to challenge me? ["Macabre Tavern once again sounds, and George Muldoon comes to ringside. He is wearing his white suit, and a white bandana. He stands there with his hands on his hips. He walks up to the ring slowly. Oswald, The Don, and Cyn all stare at him. He has an angry look on his face] Oswald: What the hell??? Dan Chan: Is George gonna shut his fellow FIRM partner up? George: James...Oswald. How are you? James: Hey...It's King George! Oswald: George... George: SHUT UP!!! I'm talking! Dan: Here it is...Will The Firm end? George: Oswald...You were supposed to face the T3 with me when Vic got injured, but you never turned up! [Silence] George: Oswald...You have your cheap spray-painted title, and left me on my own on War! [Walks up to Ozzie. They face each other eye-to-eye] George: And now, what's going on here? Your taking over, eh? Oswald: Yeah...you gotta problem with that? George: I just may... Dan: The FIRM having more problems...and Vic is nowhere to be found! [George reaches back, and goes to hit Ozzy, as Bates does the same. As they come forward, they bump fists] Dan Chan: What??? George: But hey...I passe the test, didn't I? I held out on my own, and now I'm officially IN DA HOUSE!!! [George takes off his bandana, throws it into the crowd and bumps fist with everyone. They all then pose for the camera] Oswald: Jesus...you people have to be the dumbest people alive today! THE FIRM IS GOING NO WHERE! We are family. Everytime you think we have problems, we always come out okay. Yet, everytime we do something to fool you, ya all fall for it. George: Listen...the FIRM is FIRMly together in the AICW, and there ain't a damn thing you can do to stop us...if Ozzy wants to take over the PPV, I'd be happy to let him! Oswald: So, this pay per view is officially FIRM business!!! ["Macabre Tavern" picks up once again, as the FIRM leaves the ringside area] Dan: The Firm planning on making their presence known tonight! And speaking of which, what are you guys doing! James: Yo man, The Saint is fighting Brady today right? So I gotta get The Saint's favorite drink! ST IDES MALT LIQUOR BABY!!!!! Dima: Yes! And DIMA will be drinking a MANLY drink! Vodka on ze ROCKS!

Russian Roulette will attack them both and win! ZE gun can go off at any moment!

Dima: This match does not interest me! Dan: Ladies and Gentlemen, what a night we have for you tonight..... ("Sober", by TOOL plays across the loudspeaker and the crowd falls strangely silent.) Dan: Now what? (Zeek Monkey then appears and walks towards the ring. He is in full wrestling attire, and is strangely without his mysterious bag. He gets into the ring and asks for the microphone. The music stops as he speaks.) Zeek Monkey: I told you that love was weak. I was wrong. The Path Of Insanity has directed me to someone who feels the same pain that I do and I can truly say that I love this person. The Path Of Insanity grows and tonight, You will meet the second person to walk this path. (The music plays again, and you see a woman step through the curtains. She has brown hair with red streaks in it. Her hair, like Zeek's is very unkept. Her face looks very pretty, and she is not wearing make-up. Her body is tall and shapely. She is wearing an oversized Zeek Monkey T-shirt with blue denim shorts. You can tell, even through the baggy shirt and jeans that she has a very nice body, and by the way the guys are cheering, they can tell too. She is also wearing black sneakers with white socks that have been rolled down. She is also carrying Zeek's mysterious bag. At one point, she looks into the bag, talks to whatever is in the bag, smiles and continues on her way to the ring. Overall, she looks like a female version of Zeek, only slightly more deranged looking, by the look of her face. She walks to the ring and hugs Zeek very close. Zeek returns the hug with one arm, still holding on to the microphone.) Zeek Monkey: This is Nikki Electra. She decided that one day, she wouldn't conform to the standards of beauty and materialism that most people have. She decided one day that the Path Of Insanity was stronger than anything she had ever experienced before, and with this new addition, this new source of strength, the Path only grows stronger. (Zeek then leaves with his arm around Nikki, still hugging him, to a cheer from the crowd.) Dan: Zeek Monkey finding a girlfriend of sorts? James: Oh snap yo! She got a BOOMING BODY SON! I'm gonna hit dat tonight!
