The camera quickly pans over the fans for a few minutes as they fight to get on camera.] [After a few minutes, the lights in the arena all go out and all of a sudden fire bursts out of the ringposts, following by some fireworks going off above the ring. The fans cheer even louder as the camera pans out to get a shot of the whole arena, and in the top left corner the SE3 logo appears along with text that says, "LIVE! From Halifax, Nova Scotia".] [The camera once again moves in closer to ringside where IWF/WOW announcers John Robertson, Jack Anderson and Rick Wright are sitting at the announce booth.] John Robertson: WELCOME EVERYONE TO SUMMER EXPLOSION III WHERE TONIGHT WE CELEBRATE THE BIRTHDAY OF THIS GREAT FEDERATION!! Jack Anderson: What a birthday this will be as we have a huge card which is sure to feature tons of excitement for the great fans here in the arena and the fans at home watching on pay per view. Rick Wright: Plus, to top it all off... the fans will get the _pleasure_ of listening to me, the star of this show! John Robertson: Star? What dream planet are you living on Rick? Rick Wright: You just watch yourself. Jack Anderson: Anyway, tonight in our main event of the biggest pay per view of the year we will see the current IWF/WOW World Heavyweight Champion, Christopher Stonebreaker, defend the IWF/WOW World Heavyweight title against the leader of the Modern Apocalypse, Robert d'Artois. John Robertson: These men are two of the best wrestlers the IW has right now. Stonebreaker has held the World title since he defeated the Prophet back at WrestleFest II in March, while Robert d'Artois won the Ultimate Wrestling Championship at Summer Explosion II last year, and won the Independence Day Rumble in July as well. Plus, don't forget he is a former US National champion. Rick Wright: Today could be d'Artois' big day as he finally gets his big match one on one for the World Title! John Robertson: Well, we mentioned that Robert d'Artois won the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge right here last year at Summer Explosion, but who could be the winner this year? Jack Anderson: We'll, we've got some great first round matches. One that I'm interested in seeing is when Wuzho takes on Vincent Bannister. Rick Wright: These two have been battling it out over the past couple of months as a part of the POW/Modern Apocalypse War, and tonight they will finally meet one on one! John Robertson: Unless members of the POW or MA end up sticking their noses in the match. Jack Anderson: Another first round match will see Xavier Othello take on Hades! Rick Wright: Plus we'll have an excellent crusierweight battle as Mr. Excellent takes on Richard Blair! John Robertson: Also, in the fourth Ultimate Wrestling Challenge quarter final match, we'll see two ex-NICW stars go at it, as Dark Master will take on "Trouble Man" Martin Richards! Jack Anderson: Plus, tonight we'll have the World Tag Team Titles on the line in a four corners match! Featuring some great teams! Rick Wright: What a match this will be. John Robertson: One team are the current IWF/WOW World Tag Team Champions, the Dynamic Duo, Magnus Colby and Alex Extreme. Team number two are the Circle of Death, Marcus Manson and Johnathan Regnigh. Team number three are the Killing Machines, Overkill and Demolisher. Finally, team number four are the Lethal Leaders, Cancer and Heatstroke. Jack Anderson: This World Tag Team match has been building for a long time between these four teams, and tonight they will settle the score once and for all. John Robertson: Also tonight, we will have a FOUR way revenge match, with a load of stipulations. Jack Anderson: First of all, the men in this match include IWF/WOW North American Champion, "Hot Stuff" Alex Martinez, Johnny Skiles, AJ "Black Ice" Stanson and Intercontinental Champion, the Idol. John Robertson: The rules of this match are very interesting. The first man to get two falls wins the Intercontinental title, with the second earning the North American title. Plus, anyone who interferes will spend the night in JAIL! Jack Anderson: Don't forget the fall by fall stipulations! The first fall will be fought under battle royal rules! With the last man standing in the ring getting the fall. Rick Wright: That could also help the person who gets thrown out first.. just think, it gives him a breather. John Robertson: That is could. The second fall has the stipulation that if the Idol wins, he will get Lady Veronica and Nevada as his mangers. Jack Anderson: The stipulation to the third fall is that the pinfall has to be made anywhere, except for inside the ring! Rick Wright: Someone could get hurt, and badly in that fall! John Robertson: In the fourth fall, the winner MUST put the Legacy Leglock on the opponent on top of a ladder. Rick Wright: That obviously favors Johnny Skiles! But how is he going to do it on top of a ladder!? John Robertson: The fifth fall will be under regular rules, if needed. Jack Anderson: Finally, the sixth fall is falls count anywhere, if needed! Rick Wright: I can't see how any of these men will be able to walk out of this match! John Robertson: Also tonight we have a special six-man tag match. One team gets along like best friends, the other... well... like worst enemies. Jack Anderson: On one team we've got Damian Steele, "Chaotic" Christopher Childress and Eric Travers. These guys should be a great team, and a win here is sure to move them all up the rankings, and help get Christopher Childress the match he wants against Christopher Stonebreaker. John Robertson: And on the other team, we've got US National Champion Cooper Concrete, Shane Sanders and Steve Studd. How will these guys work together? I don't know. For one thing, Cooper Conrete is a part of POW, while Shane Sanders is a part of MA - these two factions cannot stand each other! Meanwhile, what about Steve Studd? His partner was Shane Sanders, however we saw Sanders turn on him to join MA! Rick Wright: The team of Sanders, Cooper and Studd is one of the most messed up trios I have ever seen! Jack Anderson: It will be interesting to see just how they work together as a team. John Robertson: Another interesting match is the lumberjack match between Chris Shannon and Shawn Roberts! Jack Anderson: Shawn Roberts has defeated Chris Shannon many times before, and this could be Chris Shannon's last chance to get revenge against Shawn Roberts! John Robertson: Finally, we will also see the King of the Newcomers Battle Royal! Jack Anderson: This should be great, we'll see such newcomers as Dave "The Shamrock" McNeil, Al Robertson, "Gorgeous" Cyrus Greene, "Drifter" J.D. Carter, Scott Williams, Bad Boy McCade, Christopher Bloodsworth, "Dark Angel" Brian O'Neil, The City Kid, the Iceman, Keith "The Wolf" Werenka, Lance "Flyboy" Fair, Marcus "Hardcore" Fair and "The Enforcer" Sean Kroaker. All of these guys have been very impressive so far here in the IWF/WOW. Rick Wright: If you ask me, it will come down to a three way battle between Al Roberston, Bad Boy McCade and Brian O'Neil. Either one of those guys stands the best chance at winning, at least in my opinion. Jack Anderson: Either way, some of these guys are sure to become huge stars here in the IW. John Robertson: We'll see all of that and a while lot more right here at Summer Explosion! ____ _____ _____ / ___|| ____|___ / -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= \___ \| _| |_ \ ULTIMATE WRESTLING CHALLENGE QUARTER-FINALS ___) | |___ ___) | Mr. Excellent vs "The Rocket" Richard Blair |____/|_____|____/ =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- -----------------------> WRITER: Wade Thompson <----------------------- John Robertson: Up next is a first round match in the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge tournament. It will be relative newcomer Mr. Excellent taking on veteran Richard Blair. Jack Anderson: This should be an outstanding contest. Both have performed well on their way to this match, it should be a classic. Rick Wright: Classic? Richard Blair is going to wipe the mat with that pansy kid!! John Robertson: The ring announcer is ready, let's go up for the introductions. RA: The following contest, scheduled for one fall is a first round match in the ULTIMATE WRESTLING CHALLENGE!!!! [Crowd Pops] RA: Introducing first, led to the ring by IRON MIKE. From Montreal, Quebec, he weighs in at 225 pounds, "THE ROCKET" RICHARD BLAIR!!! [The crowd boos loudly as "Don't Stop Believin" by Journey plays and Iron Mike leads Blair out to the ring.] John Robertson: The people here in Halifax don't seem to fond of Mr. Blair do they? Rick Wright: That's because the fishermen hicks out here on the East coast wouldn't know a good thing if it smacked them upside the head with a trout!! Jack Anderson: Do you respect _anybody_? Rick Wright: Yeah, but none of them live in the Maritime provinces!! RA: His opponent, from Barnsville, Georgia, he weighs in at 215 pounds, MR. EXCELLENT!!! [The crowd cheers as "Ode to Joy" by Beethoven plays and Mr. Excellent steps out from behind the curtain and makes his way to the ring.] Rick Wright: Where'd that dumbass say this punk is from? John Robertson: Barnsville, Georgia. Jack Anderson: You _do_ know where Georgia is, right Rick? Rick Wright: Of course you nimrod!! Georgia is on the east coast of the USA, north of Florida. You know, where some of the inbred rednecks are from!! Jack Anderson: Oh come on!!! Rick Wright: It's true. In fact, I saw Mr. Excellent talking with a guy from his hometown at Mayhem last week. I overheard Mr. Excellent tell this guy that he's bangin his sister... John Robertson: RICK!!! Rick Wright: ... And this guy said, "Yeah? yer sister's right cute. Hell, there ain't many gals in our town that got _4_ teeth!" Jack Anderson: You're a sick man. DING!! DING!! DING!! John Robertson: Blair and Mr. Excellent stretch themselves out, never taking their eyes off one another. Now Mr. Excellent points at Iron Mike and says something to him. Jack Anderson: He's most likely warning Iron Mike to keep from interfering. Rick Wright: When has Iron Mike ever interfered? Jack Anderson: Are you on drugs Rick? Rick Wright: What kind of question is that, you bastard? John Robertson: Gentlemen please!! Excellent and Blair lock up. Collar and elbow tie-up... Side headlock by Blair. Excellent pushes Blair into the ropes, and whips him into the other side... Excellent drops to the mat and Blair leaps over him bouncing off the opposite side... Mr. Excellent with an elbow to the chest of Blair!!! Jack Anderson: Blair gets to his feet, and is quickly taken down with a hiplock by Mr. Excellent!! Blair up again... DROPKICK SENDS BLAIR THROUGH THE ROPES AND TO THE FLOOR!!!! John Robertson: Blair gets up and takes a walk. Blair is conferring with Iron Mike, maybe thinking of an alternate strategy. Rick Wright: The problem is, I told Blair the story about Mr. Excellent's sister earlier, and I bet Blair doesn't want to go near Mr. Excellent. It's all my fault. John Robertson: Fans, please ignore Mr. Wright, he doesn't speak for any of the rest of the IWF/WOW staff. Rick Wright: Yes I do!! The Rabbi is appalled at this reported incest. Jack Anderson: Will somebody cut his mic!!! John Robertson: Blair climbs back into the ring and locks up with Mr. Excellent... Duck into a hammerlock by Mr. Excellent, AND INTO A DROP TOE HOLD!! Mr. Excellent hooks up the leg, and grapevine's the left leg of Richard Blair. Jack Anderson: Excellent looks to be trying to take Blair's legs away from him, to ground Blair's aerial attack. John Robertson: Mr. Excellent releases the leg, and drives the point of his elbow into the back of the neck of Blair. Mr. Excellent lifts Blair and whips him into the ropes... DROPKICK TO THE KNEE!!! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent quickly grabs the left leg and drops an elbow across the knee!! Mr. Excellent stands and drops another elbow on the left knee!! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent stands and lifts Blair to his feet... JAPANESE LEG DRAG!!! Mr. Excellent grabs both legs and drags Blair to a corner. Mr. Excellent slips under the ropes, and... MR. EXCELLENT SETS UP BLAIR AND LOCKS ON A FIGURE-FOUR AROUND THE RINGPOST!!!!!! Rick Wright: That little ingrate!! Disqualify him!! No inbred little puke should be allowed to use a signature move of a western Canadian wrestling legend!!! Jack Anderson: Blair is screaming out in pain!! The referee is out of the ring, trying to force Mr. Excellent to break the hold. The referee reaches a 4 count, and Mr. Excellent releases the hold. John Robertson: Blair is pulling himself to his feet as the referee admonishes Mr. Excellent. The referee climbs back into the ring and checks on Blair to see if he wants to continue... IRON MIKE CHOP BLOCKS THE RIGHT KNEE OF MR. EXCELLENT!!!! Rick Wright: HE DID NOT!! Jack Anderson: The referee is asking Iron Mike what happened to Mr. Excellent, and of course Iron Mike is claiming to be innocent. Rick Wright: HEY REF, IRON MIKE DIDN'T TOUCH HIM!!! He obviously saw his sister in the crowd, started to drool, and then slipped on it. John Robertson: Blair leaves the ring, and rolls Mr. Excellent back into the ring. Blair climbs in and lifts Mr. Excellent... GERMAN SUPLEX!!! 1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . Mr. Excellent kicks out!! Jack Anderson: Blair lifts Excellent and whips him into the ropes... DROPKICK TO THE JAW!!!! Blair scampers to the top rope... FLYING BODYSPLASH!!! The cover!! 1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . . . Excellent kicks out!!!

NO!! BLAIR KICKED OUT IN TIME!!! Jack Anderson: Both get up... BLAIR DROPS MR. EXCELLENT WITH A HUGE CLOTHESLINE!!!! Blair lifts Mr. Excellent and whips him into the ropes... HURRICANRANA!!! The cover by Blair!! 1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . . . MR. EXCELLENT ESCAPES!!! John Robertson: Blair lifts Mr. Excellent and once again whips him into the ropes... ANOTHER HURRICANRANA... MR. EXCELLENT REVERSES IT INTO A TIGER DRIVER!!! 1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . . . BLAIR KICKS OUT!!!! Jack Anderson: Both men are still down, {1} trying to shake the cobwebs. {2} The last series of {3} moves took a lot out of {4} both men!! John Robertson: {5} No doubt. It looks like Blair is {6} moving, and he gets to his knees breaking the count. Mr. Excellent is getting to his feet now. Jack Anderson: Blair takes a swing at Mr. Excellent, who ducks and knees Blair in the midsection!!! Mr. Excellent hooks up Blair... THE EXCELLENCE OF EXECUTION FISHERMAN'S SUPLEX!!! 1 . . . . . . . . . . 2 . . . . . . . . . . 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DING!! DING!! DING!!! Rick Wright: NOOOOOO!!! RA: The winner, and advancing to the semi finals of the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge... MR. EXCELLENT!!!

Jack Anderson: Richard Blair put up a great match, but Mr. Excellent came out with the win. If Mr. Excellent can put up some fights like he did in that last match, he may be able to go all the way and win this thing. Rick Wright: I wouldn't put any money on that. John Robertson: Mr. Excellent will meet the winner of the Dark Master/Martin Richards match, which is still to come here tonight. Jack Anderson: Right now, we are being told that Keith "The Wolf" Werenka, who we will see later in the newcomers battle royal, is backstage and has something to say. Let's go to him, I guess. ======================================================================= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III - IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III ======================================================================= [Camera fades into Keith Werenka's dressing room. He is laying on a table getting a massage from a beautiful woman. He looks up to the camera and begins speaking.] Werenka: Tonight is the Battle Royale for the newcomers to the IWF/WOW, and I am one of them. Werenka: There are some worthy competitors in this match, like Iceman and Brian O'Neil, and a few unworthy ones... Al Robertson comes to mind. But know this: Summer Explosion 3, tonight, is held in Halifax. Halifax is my home town, and I will not let my fans down. I've wrestled in front of these people many times in the NEW-A, and they know what I am capable of, and they love me for it. Tonight, I show everyone in the IWF/WOW what 'The Wolf' is made of. Werenka: Now, I have to continue preparing, so please get the camera out of here, thank you. [Scene fades out as the masseuse finishes her job and gets prepared to leave.] ======================================================================= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III - IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III ======================================================================= John Robertson: Keith "The Wolf" Werenka seems very sure of himself that he'll come out with the win in the newcomers battle royal later on tonight.

Jack Anderson: These two superstars have different styles in the ring so it will be interesting to see how this match will go! Rick Wright: Yeah, but will anybody be running down to the ring and interfering in this match? I know there are people that don't like Dark Master! Jack Anderson: Yes just as well as Martin Richards has people that aren't too friendly with him either! John Robertson: The winner will of course advance to round two of the tournament against Mr. Excellent. Now I know I don't have to remind you fans out there that this tournament has produced superstars, just look at Robert d'Artois. Now even though these two are well known, which ever one of these two men win this match, and if either of these two men win the tournament, then it would be a huge boost for their careers! DING! DING! DING! RA: Ladies and gentlemen this next match is set for one fall with a 20 minute time limit, and it is a first round match in the UWC Tournament! [Fans pop.] RA: Introducing first.....

[Martin Richards stops at ringside and looks at a fan right at the guard rail. He has a Martin Richards mask on, and a trench coat that says, "Richards Is The Only True Icon" on the back. He also has a sign that says, "Martin Richards IS the IWF/WOW". Richards gives the fan a friendly smack on the shoulder, and climbs into the ring] John Robertson: I think Richards likes what he sees!

Richards goes for the Irish Whip.......Dark Master reverses and goes for a clothesline.....Richards ducks bounces off the ropes.....goes for a Flying Cross Body Block......but Dark Master catches him and delivers a big bodyslam! Jack Anderson: If the beginning of this match is going to be the same pace the whole way through then I guarantee that this will be a great match! John Robertson: Dark Master kicks Richards in the head. He bounces off the ropes, goes for an Elbow Drop but Richards rolls out of the way and Dark Master hit his elbow hard on the mat! Richards quick as lightning gets up and grabs the right arm of Dark Master and puts him in an Arm Bar! Jack Anderson: Dark Master wasted no time, but Richards the quicker of the two men got the advantage! Rick Wright: Of course that's why Richards has won titles all over the world! Jack Anderson: Hey Dark Master is no slouch either when it comes to being a champion! John Robertson: Dark Master trying to find a way out of the hold. He rolls to his right towards Richards, and Dark Master reverses the Arm Bar with somewhat of a Modified Arm Drag Take down! Both superstars to their feet, Richards with a right but it's blocked by Dark Master! Dark Master whips Richards against the ropes.....SLEEPER HOLD! Jack Anderson: Dark Master has that Sleeper on tight, this might be the end for Richards if he can't reverse out of it! Rick Wright: Well I told you that Dark Master would win the match! Jack Anderson: Rick earlier you said you were going for Richards to win this match! Rick Wright: Well I changed my prediction! John Robertson: Richards trying to fight out.......and he reverses the hold with a JawBreaker! Richards drags Dark Master to his feet.........European Uppercut by Richards! And another! Martin Richards with a Dropshot DDT! He goes for the cover..... REF: One..... . . . . . Two..... . . . . . Thr..... John Robertson: Dark Master kicks out! Jack Anderson: Both these men will be fighting hard, because if they can win this tournament then it would be not only a big boost for their egos, but also for their careers! Rick Wright: Hey why is that hardcore Martin Richards fan jumping the guardrail? Jack Anderson: Well it appears that he is there to give his support to his favorite wrestler. But is this a set-up? Is that really one of the Inner Circle, or another friend of Richards that we have yet to know about? John Robertson: Richards whips Dark Master against the ropes, and catches him with a big SideWalk Slam! Richards goes for another cover..... REF: One..... . . . . . Tw..... John Robertson: And another kickout by Dark Master! Jack Anderson: On the outside of the ring Steve "The Head" Lapommeray is pointing a finger at this hardcore fan of the Trouble Man, warning him not to get in his face.......and the Hardcore Fan replies with a finger of his own! [Crowd gives a pop as the Hardcore Fan fingers Lapommeray.] Rick Wright: Hey I think he was just trying to tell The Head that Richards is number one! Jack Anderson: Well Richards saw this going on, and he seems to be pretty amused at the whole thing. John Robertson: Richards with Dark Master whips him against the ropes......Spinebuster Slam! He hooks the leg..... REF: One..... . . . . . Two..... . . . . Three... John Robertson: HE GOT IT! Jack Anderson: NO IT WAS ONLY A TWO COUNT! Rick Wright: I thought for sure that Martin Richards had the victory right there! John Robertson: Richards grabs the legs of Dark Master, he's trying to lock in the Texas Cloverleaf! Jack Anderson: Wait Steve "The Head" just jumped up on the ring apron, and Richards lets go of Dark Master and slowly advances towards Lapommmeray. The ref is trying to keep Richards away, and up from behind Dark Master with a Low Blow! Rick Wright: Hey that's a DQ! Jack Anderson: But the ref didn't see it! John Robertson: Yeah but the Hardcore Fan did and he grabs Lapommeray off the ring apron.....Superkick by the Hardcore Fan on Steve Lapommeray!!!! Jack Anderson: I'm sure that the fan is a friend of Richards, he has to be! John Robertson: Dark Master with Richards whips him to the corner......hard clothesline and Richards goes down hard!

John Robertson: Dark Master drags Martin Richards to his feet, he nails him with a couple of hard rights......Richards falls against the ropes......Dark Master goes for the Irish Whip........but Richards reverses it and Dark Master runs in hard to the referee and he goes down! Both Dark Master and Martin Richards are still on their feet but they are both trying to shake the cobwebs off! Jack Anderson: Hey, wait a minute! That hardcore fan just climbed in the ring and pulled out a baseball bat! [The camera focuses on the bat. It is a glittering silver color and it has something on the bat in black lettering. When the camera focuses in on the writing, it says "The Trouble Maker".] Jack Anderson: That hardcore fan just motioned to Richards, what are they going to do? Rick Wright: I dunno but Lapommeray is trying to revive the ref, but it isn't working! John Robertson: Richards grabs Dark Master and holds him........the Hardcore Fan winds up.......... [SMACK!] John Robertson: HE HIT RICHARDS!!!!! HE PURPOSLEY HIT RICHARDS!!!!!! THE HARDCORE FAN IS KICKING AWAY AT THE HEAD OF MARTIN RICHARDS, AND BOTH DARK MASTER AND STEVE LAPOMMERAY ARE BOTH IN AWE! Jack Anderson: You're not the only one!

Jack Anderson: That's gotta be the Masked Man! Rick Wright: Well he did say that he was going to appear tonight and have a little "chat" with Richards! John Robertson: The fan.....er Masked Man picks Richards up and balances him on his feet........THE MASKED MAN WITH A SUPERKICK ON MARTIN RICHARDS! Jack Anderson: Hey he just grabbed a mic..... MASKED MAN: Hey Marty, I warned you punk but you failed to listen! Now revenge has just become mine, and this is only the beginning! Marty you know that I used to be one half of the NICW Tag Team Champions. Well if you think back.....the team that used to be the tag champs before you and Sullivan won the belts, was a team called The New Squad, and they later changed their team name to The Enforcers. Now one of those men were Jerry Marshall......aka the man who played the part of Hightower's older brother Allen Shannon! The other man was none other than..... [The Masked Man takes off the trench coat to reveal a white Armani suit, and he is wearing the NICW Tag Title around his waist. Then he takes off his mask, revealing a man who is 25, with long blonde hair tied back in a ponytail, and blue eyes.] MASKED MAN:......NONE OTHER THAN "THE WILDMAN" MIKE JOHNSTON!!!!!!!! [The crowd is in shock as "The Wildman" Mike Johnston is laughing in the ring, occasionally turning to give Richards a hard boot to the ribs.] John Robertson: THAT'S THE WILDMAN MIKE JOHNSTON!!!!! Jack Anderson: I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD!!!!!! Rick Wright: Well he looks pretty alive to me! Besides, Hightower told us that story already, and it was his 'creator' Dave Sanderson who died! Jack Anderson: I know that but we were told that The Wildman actually died in a car accident! Rick Wright: Well why don't you shut up and listen so we can find out what the hell is going on! "THE WILDMAN" MIKE JOHNSTON: IIIIII'MMMMMMMMMM BBBBBBAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! Did you all miss me? Now before I go any further, Marty boy I gotta ask how you live your life being as ugly as you are? I mean a lot of people were passing out and screaming when they saw this dumb Trouble Man mask! Anyway I know you are all wondering why I am standing right here in front of you right now, considering that I am supposed to be dead! Well I ain't gonna get into that right now, but I will tell you that I am alive and here in the flesh right now! Now Marty, I told you that I was coming, I warned you to prepare yourself for my arrival, but you ignored my warnings and now you have paid the price! You see Marty my "Trouble Maker" whipped that idiotic grin off your face! Richards the NICW version of the Horsemen wanted me to send you a message........Jerry Marshall wanted me to send you a message, and most importantly myself and the United Powers are sending you a message! ["The Wildman" Mike Johnston picks Richards up to a half assed standing position, and then he looks like he is ready to whisper to Martin Richards.] "THE WILDMAN" MIKE JOHNSTON: Marty listen closely and listen carefully. This goes out not only to you.......this not only goes out to the Inner Circle........but this goes out to the whole IWF/WOW as well! Myself......"The Enforcer" Sean Kroaker........"The Unforgiven" Dave Pietka.......and Hightower.........we all want you to get this message across! You are like the messenger Marty.......we want you to spread the word to every freakin' wrestler in this federation that wants to stand in our way, on behalf of all of us, The United Powers! [The Wildman looks around to the crowd, and they give a decent heel pop.] "THE WILDMAN" MIKE JOHNSTON: BOW DOWN TO THE UNITED POWERS.......OR GET F*CKED! ["Come With Me" by Puff Daddy and Jimmy Page plays as "The Wildman" Mike Johnston exits the ring, but instead of leaving he walks over to the commentator's booth and grabs a head set.] John Robertson: I thought you were supposed to be dead? Wildman: John I'm not here to talk about that, I have one quick message for all three of you to give to everybody, from President Chris Jurkschat sitting in his cushy little office with all his cronnies, to all the f*ck*ng wrestlers in this sport! Jack Anderson: And that is? Wildman: Well if you two...[points at Robertson & Anderson].......forget and don't do it, I know Rick here will do it! Hell I might as well pass the message along to him instead since he has the most brains out of the lot of ya! Rick Wright: Thanks Mike.......er what is the message? Wildman: The United Powers........we're taking over! [The Wildman puts down his headset and walks past the ring, taking a few seconds to glance at Martin Richards who is receiving medical attention. He continues to walks up the ramps, but The United Powers greet him, and they shake hands and hug, except for Dave Pietka who is more concerned and seems to be waiting for someone to jump out and attack them.] John Robertson: I can't believe what we have just seen or heard here! Jack Anderson: After costing Martin Richards the match and then laying a serious beating on him thanks to "The Trouble Maker", then Johnston gave the message that the United Powers are taking over! All those youngsters in the United Powers have a big problem, and with the return of The Wildman to professional wrestling that cockyness will get turned up a notch. Rick Wright: Hey these youngsters are just trying to make a name for themselves! The suits in this federation have kept them down, and now they are standing up for themselves! They deserve to be cocky, they are damn good! Jack Anderson: Well, we now know that Mr. Excellent will face Dark Master in the second round.

Rick Wright: From the Modern Apocalypse, Hades, who's been on fire lately, will be taking on the eccentric Xavier Othello. Jack Anderson: And these next two guys have been in each other's faces a lot recently. This very well could be the most intense match of the tournament. Rick Wright: You got that right, Jack. These guys have been through hell and high water just to make it to Summer Explosion. John Robertson: Let's go to the ring for the announcements... RA: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall, and this is an Ultimate Wrestling Challenge quarterfinal contest. ["Unforgiven" by Metallica fills the arena and the crowd pops.] RA: Coming down the aisle, from parts unknown, weighing 230 pounds, here is XAVIER OTHELLO!!! [As the music plays, the lights begin to dim to almost near darkness, where Xavier Othello slowly walks to the ring to a huge ovation. Othello has long black hair, blue eyes, with a muscular build. He dons long black tights with a dagger on the left pant leg with a single drop of red blood coming off of the point, with a torn leather jacket. Othello doesn't seem to notice, or even care, that the fans are cheering for him, his concentration is solely on the ring. Once he gets in the ring, he removes his jacket, and leaves it in the center of the ring. He then sits, leaning against the ropes waiting.] Rick Wright: Can you say "freak"? What's this guy's story anyway? Jack Anderson: It says in his bio, that before his wrestling days, he was institutionalized for being suicidal. John Robertson: Sort of scary, huh? Rick Wright: Nah...he's just a punk, he'll get a life lesson from Hades, you just watch. ["Under" by Filter plays over the PA system...the crowd begins to boo loudly.] RA: And his opponent, hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing 250 lbs., he is a member of the Modern Apocalypse, here is HADES!!!! [Hades walks to the ring looking very confident. He has short black hair, a goatee, and dark brown eyes. He wears black boots, black elbow and kneepads, with black trunks. He walks to the ring unaccompanied by his entourage of Modern Apocalypse.] Jack Anderson: Hades is out here without his cohorts tonight. The rest of MA, must be too busy to concern themselves. Rick Wright: Hades has always been a stand-alone kind of guy. This really doesn't surprise me. He knows what his abilities are, and he sure as hell can take care of this nutcase, Xavier. John Robertson: I wouldn't underestimate Othello's ability though, Rick. Just to get to this tournament, Othello went through some big guns of IWFWOW, namely AJ Stanson, Cooper Concrete, and Eric Travers. Rick Wright: He won by a countout fluke! At least Hades advanced by a pinfall... Jack Anderson: And Hades was in the ring with some tough customers, too. He advanced by beating out Alex Extreme, Big Dick, and the Idol. John Robertson: Nevertheless, both competitors are in the ring and they're ready to get it on! DING! DING! DING! Rick Wright: And there's the bell! Xavier is still hunched in the corner as Hades bands down and picks up Othello's leather jacket...HA HA HA HA HA HAHA! Jack Anderson: Wow! That's pretty low! Rick Wright: Hades just wiped his butt with Othello's jacket!! HA HA HA HA HA! John Robertson: That got Othello onto his feet! He looks pissed! Rick Wright: Hades throws the jacket into Othello's face! CLOTHESLINE!!! Takes down the suicide machine! Jack Anderson: And Hades, jumps up to the second rope to get a response from the crowd...nobody is cheering him on, just a bunch of boos! Rick Wright: Look out Hades!!! John Robertson: Xavier Othello now takes the jacket and wraps it around Hades neck and yanks him off the second rope!!! Jack Anderson: Hades hit hard! Othello still using the jacket to choke out the MA member! The referee is counting! ONE TWO THREE FOUR Xavier lets go of the choke hold and tosses the leather jacket out to the valet at ringside...the referee backs him off of Hades. John Robertson: Hades is back on his feet. And they lock up...Hades with an advantage...HEADLOCK by HADES. OTHELLO lifts up HADES, into a BACK SUPLEX! OTHELLO gets up quick! ELBOW DROP by XAVIER OTHELLO! Jack Anderson: HADES MOVES! HADES on his feet...he DROPS AN ELBOW! AND CONNECTS! Rick Wright: HADES picks up OTHELLO. WHIP INTO THE ROPES.... BACK BODY DROP BY HADES!!! John Robertson: XAVIER OTHELLO LANDS ON HIS FEET! HADES turns around... OTHELLO unleashes some CLOSED FIST PUNCHES!!! That backs Hades up! Jack Anderson: OTHELLO now WHIPS HADES INTO THE ROPES...CLOSED FIST PUNCH TO THE THROAT! John Robertson: That knocked the wind out of Hades... Rick Wright: Come on ref! What's up with that? John Robertson: OTHELLO following up with a couple FORE-ARM UPPERCUTS! HADES ROLLS OUT OF THE RING! Rick Wright: He's no dummy! He knows when it's time for a rest. Jack Anderson: There's no rest for the wicked, Rick...here comes Othello! Xavier from off the apron, DOUBLE AXEHANDLE!!! HADES WITH A HUGE CHOP TO OTHELLO'S CHEST ON THE WAY DOWN! OTHELLO KEELS OVER! Rick Wright: HADES gets back into the ring to break-up the ref's count...Othello is still reeling! HADES goes through the ropes and stands on the top of the apron...GUILLOTINE LEGDROP!!! What a Move! John Robertson: That nailed Othello right in the back of his head! Xavier is out cold! Jack Anderson: Hades rolls Xavier back into the ring...Hades with a cover!!! ONE!!! TW---XAVIER KICKS OUT! Othello isn't finished yet! Rick Wright: He will be! John Robertson: Hades gets Othello back to his feet...Hades with a HEADLOCK....RUNNING BULLDOG BY HADES! Another cover!!! ONE! TWO! SHOULDER UP! Hades arguing with the ref about a slow count... Rick Wright: Does the ref know how to count to three? John Robertson: I'm sure he does, Rick, Hades in control again...he's got another HeadLock on Othello....He's going for another BULLDOG! XAVIER POWERS OUT OF THE MOVE!!! HE SHOVES HADES RIGHT INTO THE CORNER TURNBUCKLES! Jack Anderson: That stunned him...HADES STAGGERS...FROM THE MAT, OTHELLO WITH A LEG-WHIP TAKEDOWN! OTHELLO WITH A BLATANT CHOKE ONTO HADES!!! Rick Wright: REF! RING THE BELL!!! John Robertson: The referee was able to separate Xavier from Hades, and Othello goes into a neutral corner, as Hades gasps for air. Jack Anderson: Othello wastes no time by locking up with Hades again...SWINGING NECKBREAKER BY OTHELLO! That sends Hades to the outside again! John Robertson: But here goes Othello to the outside and locks up with Hades, OTHELLO WITH A WHIP....NO! REVERSED BY HADES!!! OH NO!!!! Rick Wright: OH YES!!! OTHELLO SLAMS INTO THE STEEL BARRIER! Jack Anderson: Hades rolls in and out of the ring to stop the count out...he's going for some more punishment against Othello! Rick Wright: Do you blame him? He's had it with this punk! John Robertson: HADES sets up OTHELLO...OH!!!! Rick Wright: OTHELLO JUST GOT KNOCKED INTO TOMORROW!!! Jack Anderson: HADES SLAMMED XAVIER INTO THE STEEL STEPS!!! OTHELLO IS BLEEDING FROM THE FOREHEAD!!! Rick Wright: And Hades takes advantage of that, he starts pounding on the cranium to open the wound even more! And then Hades rolls back into the ring. This guy is smart... John Robertson: Hades goes to go through the ring ropes but the ref stops him in his tracks...the ref won't allow Hades to go back outside to hurt the young man, and he's not too thrilled about that... Jack Anderson: On the outside though, Xavier still has life left...he's grabbing a steel chair...he's had enough! Rick Wright: That stupid punk is gonna get himself disqualified... John Robertson: ..and it looks like he doesn't give a damn! He's up on the ring steps with that chair. HE'S CLIMBING THE ROPES WITH THE CHAIR IN HAND, AND BLOOD DRIPS OFF HIS FACE! Jack Anderson: The referee and Hades are still arguing, they don't see him!!! Rick Wright: HADES!!!! LOOK OUT!!!! WHAM!!!!!!!! Jack Anderson: HADES MOVED OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SPLIT SECOND!!! THE REFEREE GOT NAILED WITH THE CHAIR!!! HE NEVER SAW IT COMING!!! John Robertson: And Othello is stunned! THE REF IS OUT COLD!!! HADES WITH A KICK TO THE GROIN!!!!! Rick Wright: OTHELLO DROPS THE CHAIR, AND IS OUT OF BREATH! Jack Anderson: That really was a Low Blow!!!! John Robertson: HADES takes advantage of the situation... OH!!!!! POWERBOMB ONTO THE STEEL CHAIR!!!! A Cover by Hades!!! Rick Wright: WHAT THE F*CK!?!? The referee is still out cold! He can't count if he's not conscious! Hades is slamming his arm down on the mat! The ref isn't moving... Jack Anderson: Hades now gets up and starts shaking the ref incessantly, they better get another official down here... John Robertson: Othello tries to get himself up by the ropes...he's nearly on his feet... RUNNING CLOTHESLINE BY HADES!!!! Rick Wright: OTHELLO GOES OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE CONCRETE! HE'S A BLOODY MESS!!! Jack Anderson: Miraculously, Othello lands on his feet!!! He's wiping the blood from his face... John Robertson: HADES GRABS THE STEEL CHAIR!!! OTHELLO CLIMBING ONTO THE RING APRON!!! Rick Wright: NAIL HIM, HADES!!! Jack Anderson: OTHELLO WITH AN OPEN PALM THRUST TO HADES' MIDSECTION THROUGH THE ROPES!!! HADES DROPS THE CHAIR TO THE OUTSIDE! John Robertson: HADES is hanging on the top rope after getting the wind knocked out him...WHOA!!!! Rick Wright: YEOOOUCH!!!!! Jack Anderson: XAVIER OTHELLO JUST GRABBED HADES GOATEE AND YANKED HIS NECK DOWN ONTO THE TOPE ROPE!!!! HADES GOT CHOKED BY THE GOAT!! Rick Wright: Not funny, Anderson...that sent Hades to the mat, and he fell on the referee!!! John Robertson: Hades is trying to get some air as kicks around in pain in the ring....it looks like the ref is starting to move now. Jack Anderson: Othello on the outside, he picks up that same steel chair and he sets it up, before he rolls back into the ring. He still has blood pouring out of his forehead. John Robertson: That doesn't seem to be slowing the kid down...He grabs the fallen Hades... OH!!!!! SNAP SUPLEX SENDS HADES OUT OF THE RING!!! Jack Anderson: XAVIER OTHELLO FOLLOWS HADES TO THE OUTSIDE... Rick Wright: The referee is actually starting to get himself up with help from the ring ropes... John Robertson: And it looks like Othello sees that too, Rick...Othello grabs Hades and starts helping him up the ring steps into the ring..... Rick Wright: NO!!!!! Jack Anderson: UNBELIEVABLE!!! DDT ONTO THE STEEL CHAIR FROM THE RING STEPS!!! WHAT A DEVASTATING MANUEVER BY XAVIER OTHELLO!!! John Robertson: The referee is getting to his feet, and Xavier Othello rolls Hades into the ring....Hades looks out of it! Jack Anderson: Othello follows into the ring.... A Cover by OTHELLO!! THE REF IS THERE!!!! ONE!!!! TWO!!!! THR-----NO HADES KICKS OUT!!! REMARKABLE! Rick Wright: Xavier Othello drops his head in disbelief! A RAKE TO THE EYES BY HADES!!!

Where do they find the energy?! Rick Wright: A COVER BY HADES!!!! ONE!!! TWO!!!!! THRE----NO!!!!!! Jack Anderson: OTHELLO GOT HIS ARM UP!!!! Rick Wright: I knew that damn ref couldn't count to three!

This next match-up will be against two foes, Wuzho against Vincent Bannister. Jack Anderson: This match-up is very waited, all the fans are buzzing over these two finally duking it out. Rick Wright: It think it's gonna suck, but that's just me. At least, I hope that Wuzho isn't going to win this match. John Robertson: Anyway, let's go to the ring for the official word. DING! DING!! [DING!!! RA: This next match-up is for the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge!! This round one match-up will be to see who's the man of the IWF/WoW. To see who's the Ultimate Wrestler!! Introducing first, from Ethiopia, Africa, weighing at 270 pounds... He is a member of Modern Apocalypse, he is VINCENT BANNISTER!!! ["Man That You Fear" by Marilyn Manson plays, as Vincent Bannister comes out from the lockeroom area. Vincent is wearing black, leg-length wrestling tights. They say "The Specialist" down the side of both legs, in silver lettering. Although the fans may be booing him, Vincent Bannister does not know or care what is going on around him. He is ready to get the job done with his opponent, no matter what.] RA: Now, our next man, coming to you from the Outskirts of Romania. He weighs in at 257 pounds... WUUUUUUUUZHO!!!!! [Wuzho steps out from behind the curtains to a large pop from the crowd, to which he replies with a loud "ARIMA" at the top of his lungs, which the crowd answers back with an "Arima" shout of their own. He is wearing jeans, old working boots and a grey baggy wool sweater. He walks down the aisle, slapping hands with the fans, but remaining focused on the ring. He jumps into the middle of the ring and shouts out another "ARIMA" for the crowd before removing his wool sweater.] DING! DING!! DING!!! John Robertson: Now, the two men are in the ring, and they're circling each other. Did you hear the cheers for Wuzho?!! Jack Anderson: Wuzho move's forward, and take's Bannister down!! I can't quite explain how he did that, but it was pretty fast, and Vincent Bannister hit his head pretty hard! Rick Wright: Wuzho's hitting him with all he's got, he's not letting go of his Palm Blows!!! John Robertson: Wuzho get's up, and yells to Bannister to get up!! Bannister calmly gets up, and looks Wuzho straight in the eyes!! Jack Anderson: Wuzho goes right at Bannister, and hit's him with a knee to the gut!!

John Robertson: Vincent Bannister lifts Wuzho up, and whips him into the ropes... POWERSLAM!! He's holding him for the pin... 1!! . . . . . 2!! . KICKOUT!!! Jack Anderson: I rather quick kickout by Wuzho right there. Bannister gets Wuzho up once again, and set's him up for a Russian Leg Sweep, and... !!!BOOM!!! Rick Wright: Nice sound effects, Jack. John Robertson: Well it was a nice Russian Leg Sweep. Anyway, Bannister gets him up once, and he's going for a Vertical Suplex. He lift's him up... HE LANDS ON HIS FEET, WUZHO LANDED ON HIS FEET!! Jack Anderson: He's behind him, and nails him with a Atomic Drop!!! He goes to the opposite turnbuckles... FACESLAM BY WUZHO!!

John Robertson: Finaly, Wuzho get's up, as Bannister does also. Bannister is more shaken then Wuzho is, and Wuzho goes to the top turnbuckle. He wait's for Bannister to turn around... HE TURNS AROUND... FLYING ELBOWSMASH!!! Jack Anderson: Wuzho's going for the pin... 1 . . . . . 2!! . . . . . 3!!! Jack Anderson: NO!! BANNISTER KICKED OUT!! That was way _too_ close!

BANNISTER PUTS HIS FEET ON THE ROPES, AND BOUNCES OFF THE TOP ROPE!! HE TWISTED HIS BODY AROUND... BULLDOG!!! Jack Anderson: That took a lot out of Wuzho, I can't believe he nailed that so perfectly!! Bannister pull's Wuzho up, and he whip's Wuzho off the turnbuckle, he catches him.... SIDEWALK SLAM!! Rick Wright: He really layed him out there... Hmmm Lays. John Robertson: Bannister goes off the ropes, and hit's Wuzho with a kick to the head. He pulls him up once more, and he whips him off the ropes... BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX!!! Jack Anderson: NO!! WUZHO JUST COUNTERED IT WITH A DDT!!

Jack Anderson: In one match we will see Mr. Excellent take on Dark Master, in the other we'll see Wuzho lock up with Xavier Othello. John Robertson: Lets take a look at the update tournament brackets. _Vincent_Bannister__ _Wuzho______________ _Wuzho______________ ____________________ _Xavier_Othello_____ _Xavier_Othello_____ _Hades______________ ________________ _Mr._Excellent______ _Mr._Excellent______ _Richard_Blair______ ____________________ _Dark_Master________ _Dark_Master________ _Martin_Richards____ John Robertson: What a great match here at Summer Explosion III, which could only be brought to you by the IWF/WOW. Up next is a match which will settle many... what's going on here? Jack Anderson: Well John, it appears that Professor Steve West from Pain Incorporated has made his way down to ringside. In fact he has a microphone. John Robertson: But there is a match supposed to take place, he cannot do this. Rick Wright: Finally some interesting events at Summer Explosion, get the truck to turn on Steve's mic. [Crowd is stunned at Steve West's appearance. He is wearing the athletic uniform of the University of Higher Education and carries a list in his hand.] Steve West: To the fans of the IWF/WOW, I apologize for delaying the following contest, but there are some things that I must get off my chest and they are directed at many individuals here in the IWF/WOW. It has now been 2 years since the IWF established itself as an entity in the business. >From Day One, Professor Steve West has worked hard to gain the IWF/WOW the international reputation it deserves. Rick Wright: He's right. Jack Anderson: Shut up. Steve West: Over the past 2 years, we have seen many wrestlers and champions come and pass through this promotion, and very few have survived through the long haul. Last week on the Control Centre, I promised to deliver y syllabus for the 1998/1999 season and I will do that in a moment. But first I must comment on the state of this promotion. Jack Anderson: What's a syllabus? Steve West: The IWF/WOW has been home to many of wrestling's greatest matches and feuds. There have been bright days and dark nights. Famed matches with Pain Incorporated versus the Power Alliance, the IWF/RCW feud, respectable champions, that's what the IWF was all about. The bright days and dark nights still continue. Lately I hear about the reformation of the WOW as a promotion, and I say to them... WHO GIVES A $#!&. The WOW died when it merged with the IWF. Right now and forever more the WOW name is part of the IWF entity and nothing more. Rick Wright: Well, I have to agree with Steve, the IWF did bail out the WOW. John Robertson: Hold on there, the WOW brought in many wrestlers.... Rick Wright: Shut up John, Steve West is talking. Steve West: The first topic in my syllabus revolves around the talent roster in the IWF/WOW. I have never seen a weaker talent roster than I currently do in the promotion. You need some proof, let me read it out to you. [Turns the page on his clipboard.] Let's look at the jobbers. Marcus Manson, the City Kid and Demolisher. Three boring wrestlers and three wrestlers who will likely never rise beyond #40 in the rankings. Harold Huge will be mentioned later. You want more analysis? You want my report card on each IWF/WOW competitor? [Fans pop.] Well here it comes, unadulterated and unauthorized analysis. Keith Werenka - an NEWA superstar, which is the ultimate big fish in a small pond. He will sink in the IWF/WOW. D- Al Robertson - A man who speaks a lot with very little action in the ring. C+ Steve Wallace - SNORRRRRRRR. D Rick Styles - A former IWF/WOW star and champion if I recall correctly. Another example of how the temporaries are replacing the fixtures here in the promotion. C+ Dave McNeil - What a lousy gimmick, but a promising talent. C Destroyer - Didn't he die a while back? The Destroyer has made more returns, you wonder when he actually wrestles here. D- Shawn Roberts - A disgrace to the profession. This man has no talent and his rankings reflect it. F JD Carter - a relative newcomer, and one I have not seen in action of late. C Peter Bourke - a former ally. Come on Peter, either you wrestle or you retire. You were once great, and now you have become the King of Jobs. Take a 6 Pack and stuff it. D- Charles Albert Reginald III - Hired goon with no talent. F Ted - LOSER. F Todd Koslowski - Lack of push = lack of matches = lack of interest. C Steve Studd - Talented and held back by Shane Sanders. B Dan Watterson - Modern Apocalypse follower. Once a great talent, who ran the gauntlet with me, now nothing more than a mediocre mid carder. D Jim Shaw - The most embarrassing competitor in the IWF/WOW since the days of the Devil Man. Jim Shaw needs to meet Mr. Kevorkian, as he is killing the ratings. F Hades - Big talk, little action. Do your work in the ring. B Vince Bannister - No talent, worthless piece of fecies. Robert's bed buddy. F Shane Sanders - An annoying individual who for the most part backs up his comments in the ring. I can't stand him, but he works the ring. B+ Xavier Othello - New competitor with a big ego. C+ Brian O'Neil - See above. C+ Scott Williams - Haven't seen him in action. Incomplete. Dark Master - BORING. Stale, tiring, yuck. D Damian Steele - Bland and unimpressive. C+ Heatstroke - Wear a hat, and the heatstroke will disappear. C Sean Kroaker - I think Kroaker will CROAK in the IWF/WOW. C+ Cyrus Greene - WHO?? C Cancer - Better in tag teams. No grade Overkill - See above. Mr. Excellent - Hardly. More of a ego-driven, self centered maniac who thrives on victory yet rarely attains it. Shelf life of 5 months maximum. B- Richard Blair - Good friend, needs to focus on the mat game more. Stuck in silly feuds and lack of push by promoters. B Alex Extreme - Good talent. B Iceman - The return of a legend in his own mind. C+ Big Dick - If he was one, would he be a wrestler? F AJ Stanson - A continual opponent. Backs up his words in the ring. A Robert d'Artois - Overrated and pushed beyond his abilities. B- Martin Richards - This guy never impressed me, and is ranked far too high. B Magnus Colby - Are you a tag team or solo? Make up your mind. B David Pietka - Nothing special. B Chris Shannon - This guy SUCKS. No mixing words, the fact that Shannon has a contract he should thank the Lord. C Johnny Skiles - Improving, but not Top 10 material. B Solitude - Improving daily, a future star. B+ Eric Travers - Underrated. A Wuzho - Talented and underused. A IWF/WOW World champion: Christopher Stonebreaker - A great talent. A great champion, one of the greatest. A IWF/WOW Intercontinental champion: Idol - Climbed too far too fast. B IWF/WOW North American champion: Alex Martinez - One of wrestlings most luckiest competitors. Has he wrestled a dozen matches? Big push for an unproven man. C+ IWF/WOW US National champion: Cooper Concrete - An underrated superstar. One of my biggest challenges. A true champion. A John Robertson: Boy is he long winded. Steve West: Now that I have critiqued the pitiful talent roster in this promotion, my next topic in this lecture is the future. Previously the promotion has been a staple for wrestling excellence. Men who earned the matches got them. No longer is this the case. Instead men are given matches they do not deserve. Tonight is a prime example. Does anyone really give a shit about Robert d'Artois. Jack Anderson: Did he just say... Steve West: Chris Stonebreaker is a fighting champion, but the match for tonight is downright pitiful. I promise to the fans here in the IWF/WOW that you will get your monies worth tonight. Something BIG will happen in the main event tonight and you will be glad you ordered this event. To be blunt, Steve West, wrestling's only Professor and genuine educator will have a role in the outcome of tonight's match. Will it benefit Robert d'Artois, or Chris Stonebreaker? Could it be Steve West or the entire promotion? Only I know the answer and you will all eagerly await the answer. Jack Anderson: This is getting very interesting. Steve West: With school coming right around the corner, its a return to the basics. Its evident that wrestling skill no longer works in the IWF/WOW. My position as a man who talks in the ring doesn't garner me matches, so henceforth, I will take matters into my own hands whenever and wherever I please. No one and no match is safe, as the Professor will administer a surprise examination upon any given individual. Henceforth, I shall bring with me the Board of Education, which will administer justices and punishment into renegade individuals. Moreover, it is remedial season for the IWF/WOW talent roster and you will all get a crash course in wrestling techniques courtesy of WRESTLING's ONLY TECHNICIAN. Whether you appear on the WALL OF FAME or WALL OF SHAME, you shall all fall victim to the HONOUR ROLL and my repertoire of maneuvres. I eagerly await my first challenge. To Chris and Robert... who will be champion after tonight? Only I know and the fans will be given their money's worth. [25 or 6 to 4 plays as Steve West exits the ring to a mix of cheers and boos.] Jack Anderson: Wow, Steve West has just rejuvenated his career with this off color and risqué commentary. It seems the fire which West brought with him in 1996 is back, and so is the BOARD of EDUCATION. ____ _____ _____ / ___|| ____|___ / -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= \___ \| _| |_ \ LUMBERJACK MATCH! ___) | |___ ___) | Chris Shannon vs Shawn Roberts |____/|_____|____/ =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- -------------------------> WRITER: Jon Idell <------------------------- RA: The following match is set for one fall, with the winner being gave the name as the REAL HIGHTOWER IN A LUMBERJACK MATCH!!!! Introducing first, the lumberjacks... Solitude... "Big" Dick (Richard James)... "Professor" Steve West... "Icon" Jim Shaw... Socrates... Aristotle... Dan "The Man" Watterson... Wolfgang Wolfmann... Harold Huge... Steve Studd... David Pietka... John Robertson: What!? Wait a minute...I've just received word that something is going on in the back. We're going to Anthony Edwards, who is at the scene. [Scene cuts to Anthony Edwards in front of the camera in the back, near the dressing area. Someone is lying motionless on the floor behind him, and several medical personnel are attending to the person.] Anthony Edwards: Guys, I don't know what the motive was, but apparently, someone attacked Ted the Maniac and laid him out back here! I don't know why anyone would do such a thing, but medical personnel are attending to Ted at this moment. Apparently, he won't be participating as a lumberjack in the Chris Shannon/Shawn Roberts match. [IWF/WOW Co-President Chad Ishikawa suddenly walks on camera.] Anthony Edwards: Mr. Ishikawa, do you have anything to say on this? Ishikawa: Yes I do, Anthony. Since Ted will unfortunately be unable to participate in the lumberjack match, I was hard pressed to find a quick replacement. Fortunately, someone came to me and volunteered! Anthony Edwards: Who? Ishikawa: Ted the Maniac's replacement will be...JAWAAD MAHMOOD! Anthony Edwards: WHAT??? Ishikawa: Jawaad came to me as soon as he heard the news and BEGGED me to be the replacement lumberjack. So, I chose him. Anthony Edwards: But Mahmood and Shannon HATE each other! Ishikawa: I have no further comments. I now must attend to other matters. Anthony Edwards: Ok guys, I'm not sure what to make of this. Back to you. RA: And the final lumberjack of the match... "Midnight" Jawaad Mahmood!! Rick Wright: Look at these lumberjacks...so, which one is named Jack? John Robertson: Don't even try thinking your going to get an answer from us. Jack Anderson: Looks like we are ready for the rest of the introductions... Rick Wright: But...I want an answer!! RA: Now...introducing first contestant in this match...the leader of Arrogant Youth, hailing from New York, New York; weighing in at two-hundred and twenty pounds... "HIGHTOWER"... SHAWN... ROOOOOOBBBBBBERRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! [Crowd boos as "American Jesus" by Bad Religion plays. Shawn Roberts grabs a sign out of the crowd that says, "Shawn Roberts is the Messiah" and points to other Arrogant Youth signs. He is wearing an Arrogant Youth t-shirt, and his wrestling trunks that say Shawn on one side, Roberts on the other.] RA: And his opponent, hailing from Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada; weighing in at a clean, one-hundred and ninety pounds.... "HIGHTOWER"... CHRIS... SHHHHHAAAAANNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOONNNNNNN!!!!! ["Killing In The Name Of" by Rage Against The Machine plays on the PA as Chris Shannon steps out. He is wearing Black Adidas Basketball shoes, black Adidas Track pants. He is wearing a football jersey. The numbers and lettering are in an Irish Green. The number on the arm and back and front is 71, the name on the back says Hightower. The jersey is black, and on the arms there are also Irish Four leaf clovers that are Irish green in color.] DING! DING! DING! Jack Anderson: Wait a minute! This is cheap! Almost half of the lumberjacks have JUMPED CHRIS SHANNON BEFORE HE GOT IN THE RING!!! Rick Wright: Look at Shawn Roberts!!! He's gonna win! He paid them all off....hahaha! John Robertson: This is not good! It's a three on one attack on Shannon with Roberts telling them what to do! OH MY GOD! A TRIPLE POWERBOMB!!! Jack Anderson: WHAT!? Roberts is going to win this match! They just rolled the hurt Shannon in the ring! Here's a cover by Roberts! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... SHOULDER UP! Rick Wright: Looks like Roberts allowed him to get up! John Robertson: No....he powered himself up to his feet! Rick Wright: You need to check your glasses! Jack Anderson: Roberts drops an elbow and grabs his hips, and he's swaying his hips while he is standing over Shannon! This is a disgrace! Wait! A sunset flip by SHANNON!!! ONE... ... KICKOUT! Rick Wright: Look at this, Roberts ALLOWED Shannon to think he was going to win for a second. John Robertson: It woulda been great if he did win! Rick Wright: OH MY GOD! John Robertson: What? Rick Wright: Besides the point I sounded like you for a second, if I heard right, Jawaad Mahmood just said to Jim Shaw that he was a good wrestler with promise, and Shaw said back: "Thank you"! This is sickening!!! Jack Anderson: Back in the ring, Roberts is working on Shannon! Roberts with a fistdrop! Roberts continues this attack with a kneedrop! Roberts drags Shannon to the middle of the ring, and he's headed up to the top rope! Rick Wright: [Imitating John Robertson] NO! He's headed up to the rafters! He's going for a sommersault dive from the rafters! OH MY GOD! John Robertson: Oh - shut up! Roberts with a second rope elbow drop, and SHANNON MOVED! Shannon is up, and he bounces off the rope -- HEY! NO FAIR! JIM SHAW JUST TRIPPED HIM! Rick Wright: If he tied his shoes, he wouldn't trip! Jack Anderson: Shannon is mad, and is yelling at Shaw! Look out from behind! Roberts hits Shannon with a dropkick that sends him over the top rope! Look at the lumberjacks swarm over to beat up on Shannon! John Robertson: Well, Solitude is sitting in a corner not talking to anyone as Jim Shaw and Jawaad Mahmood are talking to each other! With Pain Inc. destroying Shannon on the outside! Steve Studd and Watterson disagreeing with each other! Rick Wright: Hey where did Moby Dick go? John Robertson: Moby Dick? Rick Wright: Uh...Big Dick! Where did he go? Jack Anderson: Wait! Look at our cameraman! He's going UNDER THE RING! We see Big Dick! He's under the ring, and is affix and padlocking a 20-foot chain onto a ladder! But, why? Rick Wright: Maybe he can't stand Coop, and is going to hang him! Hahaha! John Robertson: I don't think so. Anyway, Shannon is back in the ring, but hurt barely, and Roberts hasn't been touched yet! Roberts bounces off the ropes, and HITS SHANNON WITH A FLYING BODY PRESS...NO! SHANNON CAUGHT HIM! BACKBREAKER! Jack Anderson: Roberts is in pain, he's rolling outside to catch his breath! Not a good idea in this type of a match! Studd and Watterson have stopped fighting and are double-teaming Roberts! Rick Wright: And Jim Shaw is too busy talking to Jawaad to help out his friend...hahaha! John Robertson: Both men are stomping Roberts as Shannon is getting his energy back! WAIT! Watterson just turned away and clotheslined Studd! Watterson is trying to kill Studd! Roberts sneaks back in the ring avoiding any further damage! Jack Anderson: Shannon with a dropkick! Shannon picks Roberts to his feet, and is setting him up for a powerbomb! Shannon lifts Roberts up...and HITS HIM WITH A POWERBOMB! IT'S OVER! HERE'S THE COVER! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TH - NO! SHOULDER UP! John Robertson: So close from being over! Jack Anderson: Shannon whips Roberts into the corner, and Shannon follows with a HUGE lariat! Shannon sets Roberts on the top, and now both men are on the top rope with Shannon punching Roberts to a bloody pulp! John Robertson: Shannon is going for a SUPERPLEX!!! BUT he can't lift Roberts! Jim Shaw is holding his foot down! Shannon tries again, and NO! Roberts counters with A BACK BODY DROP THAT SEND SHANNON CRASHING TO THE CONCRETE FLOOR!!! SHANNON IS HURT BADLY!!! Rick Wright: Look at this! Shaw and Mahmood at standing next to the dead body of Shannon! Shannon is getting up, and Mahmood TAKES SHAW AND WHIPS HIM INTO SHANNON!?!?!? John Robertson: What!? We all know Mahmood hates Shannon! WAIT!! IT WAS A SETUP!! SHANNON IS STAGGERING FROM SHAW RUNNING INTO HIM, AND MAHMODD EXECUTES THE MIDNIGHT CHOKESLAM! IT'S OVER! Jack Anderson: Mahmood is rolling Shannon in the ring! Roberts drags him to the middle of the ring, and ROBERTS WITH A LEGDROP! Rick Wright: IT'S THE LEGDROP OF DOOM!!!!! IT'S OVER!!! THE COVER! Hahahaha. ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... THREE!!!!! NO! WHAT!? Jack Anderson: The ref is signaling only for a two count! I don't believe it, and neither does Roberts. John Robertson: Roberts is mad! He picks up Shannon, and whips him! Backbody drop! NO! Shannon reversed it...PILEDRIVER...NO! REVERSE TOMBSTONE! Here's a cover! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... THRE - NO! Shaw put Robert's foot on the rope. Jack Anderson: Shannon has control of the match once again. David Pietka is on the ring-apron now! Shannon's long time friend who has an F.U. shirt on! John Robertson: Shannon just extended his hand for Pietka! WHAT!? PIETKA RIPPED OFF HIS SHIRT!! IT'S... IT'S….. Rick Wright: Stop screaming and stuttering, it gets annoying. It's an ARROGANT YOUTH T-SHIRT! Jack Anderson: Shannon can't believe it, and Pietka is laughing! HEADBUTT BY PIETKA!! ROBERTS WITH A ROLL-UP FROM BEHIND!! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... KICKOUT!! John Robertson: Close call! It seems like everyone is against Shannon tonight! And Pietka has the mic! [Pietka grabs the microphone and looks around, smiling.] David Pietka: What goes around, comes around, Chris. You were pulled and suckered in from the start. Want to know why? Here's the deal. I told you that The Silent Deception WAS dead, but the MASTER remained. Just because I'm who I am now, doesn't mean I can't whoop anyone's ass at a game of pure deception. RIGHT...FROM...THE...START! [Crowd boos. Pietka looks around, pointing to the Arrogent Youth insignia on his T-shirt.] David Pietka: This? Why do you think I came back? Chris, you said I turned my back on you. So you know what. Right after YOU SAID IT, I DID IT! That's right. If you wanted help, you could have asked me, but NOOOO! You had to the big man on campus and say that no one would help you. That your former partner couldn't be counted on! You want to know why I became The Unforgiven? All my life, when I retaliated for actions against me, I WAS Unforgiven. All the time, when I did something to help someone, I BECAME Unforgiven. And when I did what I did tonight...YOU BECAME UNFORGIVEN! [Crowd boos much louder, Pietka just waves it off.] David Pietka: I wasn't kidding when I said my friends were few. At a time, Tatiana was all I had. Then Arrogant Youth showed up, and they helped me out a lot. I was in the BIGGEST FUCKING RUT OF MY LIFE! WHY? BECAUSE MY FRIEND SAID I COULDN'T BE COUNTED ON! Well, I decided it was time for some new friends. Friends I could count on, friends I could depend on, FRIENDS WHO DON'T SPEW OUT EVIDENCE TO A LIBEL SUIT BEHIND THEIR BACKS! For a time, I didn't turn my back on you, Chris Shannon. It was when you said that I did that I did. YOU CREATED ME, CHRIS SHANNON! NOW, I'M HELPING TO UNCREATED WHAT CREATED ME! Personally, I think this fighting over a NAME is sick and worthless...but when it's between two people, and one actually DESERVES IT! Well, it becomes another story. [Pietka points to Roberts.] David Pietka: This man here. Shawn Roberts. The brains behind it all. HE'S THE MAN! And you, Chris Shannon...well, there are only two letters I can say to you! [grins] FFFFFFFFFFFFFF......UUUUUUUUUUUUUU....... Jack Anderson: Doesn't anyone know we are in the middle of a match? LOOK! In the crowd! It's Brian O'Neil! He's got a char with him! What's he doing? Rick Wright: He's at ringside! He's not allowed here! HE JUST HIT SOLITUDE!!! NO FAIR!! John Robertson: Solitude who was sitting here at ringside the who match is out cold from Brian O'Neil, and he's leaving! Rick Wright: What an idiot! John Robertson: Back in the ring...SHANNON WITH A SPINEBUSTER! Looks like he's ready for the Candian Classic...NO! He's picking up Roberts to hurt him more! WHAT!?!?! SHANNON JUST APPLIED AN ARMBAR! HE CALLS IT THE IRISH BAR!! IT'S OVER!! Rick Wright: WHAT!?!? Jack Anderson: I can't believe it!! Ring Announcer: The winner of this match by submission, and the _REAL_ Hightower.... "HIGHTOWER"... CHRIS... SSSSHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAANNNNNNNNOOOOOOOONNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!! John Robertson: ROBERTS SUBMITTED! ROBERTS SUBMITTED! Rick Wright: [Coughing] Bret Hart screwjob deja va.... Jack Anderson: It's not over! Here comes Pietka and Shaw! They are all attacking Shannon! All three men are holding Shannon down while Pietka puta a F.U. shirt on him! Now Pietka locks Shannon in the "Feigned Forgiveness" submission hold! HERE COMES THE REST OF THE WEST COAST CONNECTION! A.Y. bails out! The fight between these two groups is far from over! -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= WINNER: Chris Shannon =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- John Robertson: Wow... what a win for Chris Shannon!

And it's about to get even MORE memorable, as the top 4 teams in the I/W are set to get it on, in perhaps the most important tag team title match so far this year! Jack Anderson: That's right. The Dynamic Duo has defended the I/W in impressive fashion in the G-Star... but can they defend the IWF/WOW World Tag Team Titles against not one, not two, but THREE top tag teams? Rick Wright: Me and Chris Johnson would wipe the floor with them all. Anderson: You and who? Robertson: That weirdo who showed up on Control Center earlier this month? Who's he? Wright: Very funny... NOT. Like this match is going to show, it's not about hype, it's about who's willing to throw the lowest blows. Who's going to go the extra few steps outside the lines. And who is ready, willing, and able to win at all costs. Robertson: Rick, I think it'll come down to heart, guts, determination, and the will to go beyond their physical limitations. That's the mark of a champion. Anderson: I think that the team with the experience, wit, wiles, and focus will take home the gold! VOICE: YOU'RE ALL _WRONG!_ Anderson: Wha... HEY! [Suddenly, a man dressed in a black blazer with aqua trim walks up to the announcers table, grabs Jack Anderson by the collar, and tosses him aside like a sack of potatoes. A man... wearing a featureless black mask! And many in the crowd "mark out" at his presence! It's... The Evil Masked Broadcaster!!] Robertson: OH, NO! Hey, what are you doing here?! This isn't UEW!! The Evil Masked Broadcaster: Cease your mindless chatter, doltish buffoon. It is I, The Evil Masked Broadcaster, and in the words of Pantera... "Evil Knows No Boundaries"! MUHAHAHAAA!! Wright: All right... they finally sent me somebody I can work with! TEMB: Yes, and since you are the only man in IWF/WOW worthy of such an honor, Richard Wright, I now pronounce you the first and only member of New Word Order I/W! Wright: Cool. Robertson: Don't bring that stupid running gag up here! IWF/WOW represents WRESTLING, not some stup... *WHAP* TEMB: Yes, I agree, you should be silent, while Wright and I call this match. I am selecting the team that will sink to the most incomprehensible depths of EVIL!! And all four teams are well capable of handing over their collective souls to the proper Evil sources to gain the power to emerge victorious! Robertson: Where's The Rabbi when you need him?! TEMB: Hiding under a bathroom stall in fear of my Evil presence... now, enough nonsense! It is time! [The familiar opening of "Enter Sandman" by Metallica starts up, to a MAJOR crowd pop! The Killing Machines, Overkill and Demolisher, accompanied by the infamous Jawaad Mahmood, exit the backstage area! They wear their customary all-black attire over their powerful frames. Overkill and Demolisher stop at the halfway point, and raise their arms in the air. Black smoke pours down from the ceiling at their position, obscuring them from view, and then a big BOOM is heard, as a dark blue pyro goes off in the background! The two Machines charge out of the smoke cloud, and dive into the ring, ready for war.] Robertson: This is a big-time tag team right here. The Killing Machines are rough and tough, and they can get it done in the big match, especially with the crafty Jawaad Mahmood at ringside, a master tag team wrestler in his own right! TEMB: You've got to like a team with the name Killing Machines! Perhaps they will kill some of their adversaries in the ring before our very eyes! This Pay Per View could use a murder or two! Wright: So could the I/W roster! ["Once" by Pearl Jam interrupts the proceedings, and a special spotlight shines the logo of The Circle Of Death into the ring, as the lights dim a bit, and a red-and-blue laser array bursts down from the ceiling, and circles the crowd. Marcus "The Misery Machine" Manson storms out of the curtain, very focused on the ring. He wears full length black tights emblazoned with the CoD logo, and a vest with the same. His ice blue eyes are dead set on the ring. Jonathan "The High Roller$$" Regnigh follows through the curtain a ways behind. He is wearing... a straitjacket, and is literally being dragged to the ring by his beautiful manager Victoria. Victoria pulls on a leather leash of some kind, but Regnigh isn't cooperating. Suddenly, a BANG, and red fire shoots up from the entranceway! Regnigh sprints like a maniac to the ring, blowing past Manson, and slamming into the ring apron, falling flat on his back! Manson ignores his partner, and jumps in the ring.] Robertson: What happened to Johnathan Regnigh?! Wright: Don't ask. TEMB: Hey, Rick, weren't you th... Wright: DON'T ASK!! Robertson: Marcus Manson just pulled his tag team partner out of his straitjacket... and smacked him in the head! What in the world? TEMB: Marcus Manson is a cold, evil man who enjoys misery. His own, or that of others. Johnathan Regnigh is... um... I'm not sure what he is! But this team is always dangerous! ["Comedown" by Bush now blares out over the loudspeaker, and the crowd POPS again, as The Lethal Leaders, Heatstroke and Cancer, walk smugly out of the back. The arena lights now are tinted silver, and flicker, producing a strobe effect in time to the music. The two men in the silver and black stalk down the aisle slowly and assuredly, as if the match were already in the bag. A BLAZE of silver sparks sizzle and ripple in the background, as Heatstroke and Cancer arrive at ringside. The two take their sweet time about entering the ring and getting ready, talking a lot of trash to the other two teams there.] Robertson: The Lethal Leaders... one of the most decorated tag teams in the history of wrestling! These two men are tag team legends! TEMB: And they didn't get there by being namby-pamby wussy boys! They got there by doing bad things to good people! And worse things to bad people! And EVIL things to worse people! MUHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! Wright: This strobe lighting is giving me a headache. Robertson: Standing up from your chair more than twice a card gives you a headache, Rick! TEMB: Lethal... Lethal... I love the sound of that! In fact... we have a team known for Killing, a team known for Death, and a team known for being Lethal! What an EVIL match this should turn out to be. Unless these two spoil it... ["We Are The Champions", by Queen starts up, and the fans roar approval. A laser writer placed in the upper balconies writes in the center of the ring, the letters... I W F / W O W, in commemoration of the Dynamic Duo's G-Star tournament run. As the chorus starts, two rockets shoot up and EXPLODE, one orange, one green. As they do, "Mr. Excitement" Alex Extreme and "Widowmaker" Magnus Colby walk out from behind the curtain, holding the IWF/WOW World Tag Team Titles up high. Two pyro pinwheels go off, one orange, one green, on either side of the entranceway, as Extreme and Colby sprint to the ring... ... and Overkill, Demolisher, Heatstroke, Cancer, and Marcus Manson all drop elbows on them on the way in!!] *DING*DING*DING* Robertson: We are underway, and it looks like a car wreck on the left side of the ring! I've seen double, even triple elbowdrops... but never a QUINTUPLE elbowdrop! Wright: All those guys jostled and bumped into each other on the way down... what a bunch of morons. Robertson: Now they're fighting on the mat! Cancer and Demolisher are pounding away with closed fists, while Heatstroke and Alex Extreme grapple on the mat! Magnus Colby, Marcus Manson, and Overkill are in a three way slugfest! And Johnathan Regnigh is... is... at ringside... writing?! TEMB: He's got a diary! He's writing an entry into his diary! Hey, staying out of the fight early isn't such a bad idea. He'll be that much fresher later on. Robertson: Now Heatstroke bounces up, and dropkicks Overkill in the head! Alex Extreme crawls up behind Marcus Manson, and gives him an uppercut RIGHT between the legs from behind! Demolisher with a big-time clothesline on Magnus Colby! The referee is letting it all go! TEMB: Excellent! Now the possibilities of a truly evil matchup are all the more! Wright: Hey, now what's Regnigh doing.... TEMB: MUHAHAHAHAAAA!! He grabbed Cancer's leg from outside the ring, and started GOUGING him in the leg with his pen! Ink poisoning can be quite... Lethal! MUHAHA! Wright: That's new! So's this... look at Heatstrike and Overkill! Robertson: Heatstroke with a flying spinwheel kick, and both he and Overkill fly over the top rope! And Alex Extreme is hopping on the top rope... spinning flying forearm to Marcus Manson! Demolisher picks up the 300 pound Magnus Colby for a suplex, and PLANTS him face-down with a gourdbuster! This one is wild! Wright: Man, forget about calling all this action... too much. Normally these guys bore me to sleep... tonight the rapid-eye movement might just do it! TEMB: Save the insomnia, there's evil afoot! Overkill SMASHES his body into Heatstroke's on the outside with a crushing flying avalanche into the ringpost! Marcus Manson just caught Alex Extreme in the middle of an Asai Moonsault and BURIES him with a Tombstone! Cancer just SLUGGED Johnathan Regnigh over the barricade into the crowd! And Magnus Colby just hooked Demolisher's arms, and release tiger suplexed him halfway across the ring! Wright: Here comes Cancer to help Heatstroke with Overkill! Double bodyslam! Robertson: Demolisher rolls out of the ring, and pops Cancer in the back of the head! The Dynamic Duo just got together to double suplex Marcus Manson! Johnathan Regnigh is... um... I don't know WHERE Johnathan Regnigh is! Wright: Heatstroke slides into the ring... Cancer grabs Demolisher... Overkill slides into the ring after Heatstroke... Heatstroke off the ropes, running at Overkill... Overkill drops down in front... WHOA!! TEMB: Heatstroke stepped off Overkill to LAUNCH a flying dropkick OVER THE TOP ROPE on Demolisher! But what's Overkill doing? Robertson: Overkill slingshots over into a plancha on BOTH Lethal Leaders! The Leaders and Killing Machines are in a mess at ringside! And Alex Extreme mounts the top rope! Magnus Colby over to him... WICKED!! TEMB: No... EVIL! Colby ROCKETLAUNCHED Extreme onto both the Leaders and Killing Machines, who were getting up, but just got toppled like dominoes! But Colby doesn't see Marcus Manson! Wright: Manson scoops up big Colby for an atomic drop... and tosses HIM over onto the pile! And now Manson just dives through the ropes into everyone! Robertson: Johnathan Regnigh into the ring... with... the coffee machine? He's got that industrial-size coffee machine from the back... full of STEAMING hot coffee... TEMB: And dumps it over the top rope onto the pile! MUHAHAHAAA!! Wright: And now he's sitting in the middle of the ring, drinking coffee from a ceramic mug! This guy must have had about 20 cups or so in the past hour, from the way he's acting! Robertson: The wrestlers scatter from the pile at ringside! Manson and Overkill exchange blows, as do Extreme and Heatstroke! Demolisher and Cancer continue to war, and Colby rolls in the ring, going after Regnigh! Wright: Overkill throws Manson headfirst into the railing! Now he follows up... by slamming the steps into him! TEMB: And Heatstroke is doing EVIL things to Alex Extreme! He's locked him into a kneelock... sticking his leg into the bars of the ring barricade to do it! And his partner Cancer also fares well, as he has knocked Demolisher down with a solid blow to the head with the bell! Talk about a ringing headache! Robertson: Magnus Colby has Regnigh hooked in the Human Torture Rack! He likes to go for The Annihilator from this position! Outside the ring, Marcus Manson has recovered, and he bodyslams Overkill down on top of Heatstroke and Extreme! Extreme's right leg is still caught in that ring barricade, and let me tell you, it's hurting! Wright: What do you know about pain? You never wrestled in your life! Robertson: I'll have you know I've had some VERY nasty paper cuts! TEMB: Demolisher just press-slammed Cancer on top of the ring barricade! What an evil tactic! And Heatstroke runs over for the save with a Frankensteiner onto the floor on the 300 pound Demolisher! Overkill runs over, and tackles Heatstroke on his way up... the Killing Machines and Lethal Leaders are really going at one another tonight... with bad moods and evil intentions! Robertson: In the meantime, Colby sets Regnigh up on the top rope... Superplex! That might be it as he goes for the pin! ONE! TWO! Wright: It'll take a hell of a lot more than that to pin Johnathan Regnigh even if he is a fruit loop! Robertson: Marcus Manson has Alex Extreme on the outside... BIG spinebuster! Alex hasn't had any offense since the big rocket launcher... that's the downside of high risk moves, they can take it right out of you! TEMB: Yes, save the acrobatics for the circus and get down to some serious evil! Like getting your face grated on the bars of the ring railing, which is what Manson is now doing to Extreme! Wright: Look out, Demolisher has the bell now! Actually, don't look out, I want to see somebody get clobbered with it! Robertson: You just got your wish! Heatstroke went for a swinging neckbreaker on Overkill, and Demolisher nailed him with the bell. Cancer is... sneaking into the ring behind Magnus Colby! TEMB: Colby stomping away at Regnigh... Cancer with a reverse cradle! ONE! TWO! THR... NO! Robertson: That's the experience... Cancer saw a chance to sneak a win in the middle of tag team chaos, and VERY nearly got it! But now the Killing Machines have a double-team on Heatstroke... Demolisher clotheslines Heatstroke against the ringpost! Heatstroke staggers out... Overkill off the apron... bulldog into the floor! TEMB: An EVIL chain maneuver, and Heatstroke looks out of it! But here comes Cancer... DOWN off the apron with a lariat on Demolisher! Wright: Marcus Manson's running over there now... he just popped Cancer in the eye! And follows up with an iron claw to Demolisher! That hold hurts like a bi... Robertson: And Magnus Colby scoops up Johnathan Regnigh... full nelson slam! He won the second round match in the G-Star with that very move! But he doesn't see Overkill sliding in the ring! Overkill off the top rope... flying axehandle! Wright: Alex Extreme from the other side... Overkill turns and sees him... OW! Robertson: Springboard hurancanrana! Extreme has him wrapped for the pin! ONE! TWO! THR... TEMB: No, Extreme's right leg gave out, as Overkill lifted his shoulder! The damage Heatstroke did to it was just enough to make it less than effective enough to get the pin! Alex will have to use some more effective tactics, like removing his opponent's Adam's apple with his bare hands. Wright: That's one of my favorite moves! Robertson: *sigh* Cancer just pulled out a section of railing! He's setting something up here... TEMB: Something EVIL, of that you can be sure. I now command all weak-stomached, feeble-willed denizens of TV land... to pay close attention, this kind of evil is good for you! Robertson: In the meantime, Manson with an iron claw headslam on Demolisher! Cancer grabs Manson... Hotshot onto the steel barricade! Manson goes down like a sack of potatoes! TEMB: And now Cancer... PICKS UP that section of barricade! And DROPS it on Demolisher! All the weight of that steel... that's the type of power you can only get when you give your soul to the forces of EVIL! MUHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!! Robertson: Uh... OK. In the ring, Alex Extreme and Magnus Colby with a doubleteam on the other Killing Machine. Extreme on the top rope... flying dropkick! And at the same time, Colby dove in with a knee clip! What a fantastic move! Wright: I've seen more exciting moves at chess tournaments! TEMB: Heatstroke is up again, and that's bad news for Marcus Manson! BIG double lariat by the Lethal Leaders! Robertson: Colby is scooping up Overkill in a bearhug... Extreme up on the top! This could be a big flying Hart Attack! HEY!! Wright: Jawaad Mahmood shakes the ropes, and Alex just fell to the steel turnbuckle connector... right on his cahones! Then again, everyone tells me that Extreme HAS no cahones, so he should be fine! Robertson: Colby drops Overkill and goes after Jawaad! Big mistake... Johnathan Regnigh leaps up! He was playing possum! Grabs Colby from behind... WOW!! TEMB: __PEARL JAMMER__!!! That's his move! The Reverse DDT, and nobody does it better! Wright: Regnigh's got him! ONE! TWO! THRE... Wright: Heatstroke breaks up the pin... with HIS finisher! TEMB: __HEATSTRIKE__!! The patented flying elbowdrop, and nobody does THAT better! He covers Regnigh! ONE! TWO! THRE... Robertson: __MOONSAULT__ by Overkill! That's HIS finisher, and nobod... oh, anyway, he's pinned Heatstroke! ONE! TWO! THRE... Wright: I knew Extreme had no cahones! He was good enough to hit HIS finisher! Robertson: The __EXTREME LEGDROP__!! A moonsault legdrop off the top, and nobody... else even does it right!! He's got Overkill pinned! ONE! TWO! THRE... TEMB: Cancer in to break up the pin... with... a __STOMP__!!! Robertson: What was so special about that stomp? Noone uses a regular stomp as a finisher! TEMB: Well... why ruin a trend? Wright: Cancer picks up Extreme, and lifts him up high in a chokehold! Magnus Colby, Johnathan Regnigh, Overkill, and Heatstroke are all laid out! Looks like "the morning after" at Chris Shannon's apartment, if you know what I mean. Robertson: Say that a little louder, Rick. Wright: I said... IT LOOKS LIKE THE MORNING AFTER AT CHRIS SHANNON'S APARTMENT! Did you hear that OK, Robertson? Robertson: Chris Shannon is standing 10 feet to your left, Rick. Wright: HE IS?! TEMB: MUHAHAHAAA! There's hope for you yet, Robertson! Robertson: The West Coast Connection is here! Chris Shannon and Sean Kroaker are looking on, very intently it seems, because my broadcast partner is still alive. Lucky you, Rick! Wright: I'll get you for that! TEMB: Cancer slams Extreme down from the power choke, and now he's setting him up... looks like for the Ebola Rolla reverse powerbomb! Robertson: But Marcus Manson just ran in the ring, and delivered a vicious chokeslam to Cancer! Cancer may be pinned right here... but Manson blasting Extreme instead with a double axehandle. Good tactic, that pin would have been broken up anyway! TEMB: Demolisher finally gets that section of railing off of him, with Mahmood's help, and sneaks into the ring behind Manson! Robertson: Demolisher charges Manson, who has Extreme up for a powerbomb! But Extreme reverses into a spinning headscissors... sends Manson right into Demolisher! Wright: Demolisher CAUGHT him! And powerbombed him! What a move! The cover! ONE! TWO! TH... Robertson: Alex Extreme dropped an elbow on Demolisher to stop the pin. Now the others are all getting up... 8 man warfare in the ring! It's a giant brawl! Wright: In the history of IWF/WOW, how many times have we said that? TEMB: Ooooh... looks like some evil tactics are about to unfold! Jawaad Mahmood is on the apron! HEY! Robertson: The West Coast Connection strikes! Shannon and Kroaker pull Jawaad off the apron... and a Double Brainbuster onto a steel chair! Jawaad is OUT!! TEMB: In the meantime, in the ring, Heatstroke and Alex Extreme are both trying to climb up to the same top rope! The two men trading punches way up high! Magnus Colby and Marcus Manson are at each other's throats... literally! Cancer and Demolisher STILL slugging it out... those two have gone at it all match! And Johnathan Regnigh and Overkill are trading high-impact moves in mid-ring. Wright: WOW! Overkill just dove at Heatstroke and Extreme! And they ALL went crashing to the outside! Overkill just took both of them out in one move! TEMB: That was EVIL! Overkill back up to the apron... Regnigh goes for a sunsetflip powerbomb off the apron! But Overkill's holding on to the ropes! Robertson: Regnigh has him by the legs, still... pulling... Manson runs at Overkill, who's on the apron... NO!!! TEMB: __HEART PUNCH__!! MUHAHAHAHAAA!! And Overkill got DRIVEN down into the Regnigh sunset powerbomb! Right onto the barricade! HE'S DEAD! Wright: He MIGHT be! That move was awesome! Manson's Heart Punch is BANNED in most leagues... but not here in I/W! At least WE aren't afraid to let wrestlers wrestle! Robertson: Manson is just enjoying the sight of Overkill down and out! He doesn't see Magnus Colby coming... Colby spins him! OW! TEMB: __ANNIHILATOR__!! He got all of it! That Diamond Cutter-like move took Manson out! Regnigh at least still had the sense to roll him out of the ring! Robertson: Cancer from behind whacks Colby... and hits a German Suplex! Colby got taken by surprise again! Cover... ONE! TWO! THR... Wright: Colby kicked out! That man gets too focused on one thing... still too used to wrestling singles! TEMB: Demolisher comes over, and pulls Regnigh by the hair... what's Regnigh got? He just pulled something out of his tights! Robertson: Regnigh is hitting Demolisher... with... a rolled up pair of nylons! What does he think THAT'S going to do? And Victoria just snatched them from him, and handed him a steel chain! Wright: He's trying to put the chain on his legs? Wha? Robertson: This man needs help, and soon! Demolisher just pulls Regnigh up onto the apron... he's in the ring... TEMB: Colby hits a backbreaker on Cancer... and locks him in a Sharpshooter! He's got it in deep! Robertson: Demolisher picks up Regnigh for a Tombstone! But Regnigh squirms... and shifts his weight... Demolisher bends backwards... and he PEARL JAMMED him!! Robertson: Colby doesn't see it, he's still got the Sharpshooter on Cancer... who is on the verge of tapping out! And EVERYONE else is laid out! But Regnigh isn't going for a pin... he just rolled out of the ring, and grabbed one of the World Tag Tile Belts! He's putting on the belt like he won the match! TEMB: Some people can handle being EVIL... and some people's minds snap like twigs under the pressure. Too bad, Johnathan, you could have been an evil one... *sigh* Wright: Regnigh is climbing up to the top rope... he's going to end it here! Robertson: But, wait... LOOK!!! ( ( T H W A C K ! ! ) ) TEMB: Evil has reared it's ugly head, and kicked John Regnigh's ass! MUHAHAHAAA!! Robertson: SEAN KROAKER JUST BLASTED REGNIGH WITH THE OTHER CHAMPIONSHIP BELT! Regnigh falls off the top! Chris Shannon runs over, and is getting in Magnus Colby's face! The ref was distracted with him, and didn't see the interference! Wright: "The Enforcer" of the West Coast Connection gets in the ring... and... and... ROLLS DEMOLISHER ON TOP OF REGNIGH?!?! TEMB: Evil is as evil does! In other words, who cares who gets stuck, just as long as you stick it to SOMEBODY! Robertson: The ref turns around! Chris Shannon still is distracting Magnus Colby! ONE! Robertson: Alex Extreme, Heatstroke, Manson, and Overkill get up! They dive in the ring! TWO! Robertson:: Overkill tackles Manson and Heatstroke! ALEX EXTREME JUMPS OFF THE TOP TO SAVE HIS TITLE! TEMB: BUT KROAKER JUST SHOVED HIM OFF-COURSE AS HE LEAPT! HE MISSED! _THREE_!!! Wright: WOW! Who'da thunk it? Robertson: Who'da thunk it?!?! THAT WAS HIGHWAY ROBBERY! TEMB: Silence, pathetic mewling sheep, and let us hear the benefits which EVIL has reaped! Ring Announcer: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... YOUR WINNERS... AND NNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW IWF/WOW WWWOOORRRLLLLDDD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS... __THE__ __KKKIIILLLLLLIIINNNGGG__ __MMMMAAACCCHHHIIINNNEEESSS__!!!!! Robertson: But the West Coast Connection took out Jawaad Mahmood! WHY? TEMB: Does THAT answer your question? The West Coast Connection just walked off with the belts! Wright: Extreme and Colby just chased them down! The Dynamic Duo tackles the West Coast Connection in the aisle! Robertson: Extreme and Colby POUNDING on Shannon and Kroaker!! They are IRATE at losing the belts... WITHOUT ever being pinned! TEMB: And look IN the ring! The Lethal Leaders just jumped the Killing Machines! They're brawling in the ring! Wright: Damn security has to come out and break it up... don't you hate it when that happens? ["Enter Sandman" starts up again, in honor of The Killing Machines' title victory. Security swarms, and breaks up all the fights. The West Coast Connection point at the Killing Machines threateningly as they are being pushed out. The Dynamic Duo are having to be physically restrained from attacking the WCC, as they are escorted out. The Lethal Leaders leave in anger, cursing out the referee. Marcus Manson grabs Johnathan Regnigh by the scruff of the neck, and drags him out (as Regnigh is singing along with the music). Security gives The Killing Machines their belts, and they hold them up in center ring.] -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= WINNER: Killing Machines **NEW TAG CHAMPS** =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- TEMB: Well, it's been EVIL, but time to get going. There is much more mayhem, chaos, bloodshed, massacre, anarchy, war, misery, murder, and random acts of senseless violence to comment on this evening... do the New Word Order proud, Richard! Wright: Working with bump-on-a-log guys like these, I'll try my best. [The Evil Masked Broadcaster reaches off screen, and throws Jack Anderson back into his seat, and exits, as the music dies down, and next match preparations begin.] John Robertson: And now we'll get to the ring for our next match of the night....hey, wait a minute, that guy looks vaguely familiar.... [Camera zooms in on a fan in the front row.] Jack Anderson: Yeah, in the front row, I think I recognize him from something....wait, I know....that's Ian "Laser" Jennings.....he's a protege of Jeremy Thranton's....I wonder what he's doing here.. Rick Wright: Thranton is training this guy? Poor kid...with that kind of guidance, he'll never make it anywhere. John Robertson: Sure, Rick, having a former World champion train you guarantees your failure. I see we're sending Anthony Edwards down to chat with the youngster, this is a rather unexpected suprise. [Anthony Edwards hustles down to the ringside area and goes over to Ian Jennings, who looks up in a sort of startled suprise when he notices them, then give a small grin. Jennings is around the six foot range, somewhere around two hundred fourty pounds. He has short straight light blonde hair, a defined build, and a mild tan, making him look kinda like what you'd get with Chris Jericho's face on Chris Benoit's body. He's wearing an Iron Maiden "Best of the Beast" tshirt, a black and red flanel, knee length cut off shorts, a small gold earring and black Nikes. He puts down the bottle of Budweiser he was holding, shakes Edward's hand and stands up.] Anthony Edwards: For the unfamiliar viewers out there, this man is Ian Jennings, also otherwise known as "Laser". I believe you are a protege of Jeremy Thranton, am I correct? Ian Jennings: [clears his throat] Umm...yes, sir, I am, a former protege. Anthony Edwards: Former? Jennings: Yeah...I severed ties with him a couple months ago...I thought it might be time for me to start a career of my own, and he's too busy chugging beer and shooting up to help me in any manner concerning a wrestling career. Anthony Edwards: Well, I am aware he was arrested soon after he departed IWF/WoW for possesion of drugs, but I didn't know he was no longer affiliated with you. Well, anyhow, what brings you here? Jennings: [smiles] Hey, I might want to still break into the business, but I haven't yet, and I'm hear as a wrestling fan...I've been watching IWF/WoW since its inception, and for that matter, both federations before the merger, and I happened to be able to pick up some tickets, so I took the oppurtunity...tells you what kinda fanatic I am, I'm a long way from my home in Seattle. Anthony Edwards: So, you are making a move to enter the industry, then? Jennings: Yeah, I figured I've done enough preparation and training, and it's time for me to actually begin doing what I've waited so long for. I was supposed to make my debut in another federation by the name of EOW about a year ago, against Eric Travers, I believe, but the federation closed before I could give the wrestling world a taste of what I can do. In a way, I'm glad it didn't happen, because now I have had another to hone my skills to pefection, and I'm more than ready to make my impact now. Anthony Edwards: Here, in IWF/WoW? Jennings: [shakes his head vigorously] Nah, like I said, just here as a fan. I'm not quite ready for the IWF/WoW yet, I'll start in some smaller fed and work my way up. Eventually, maybe, you may see me here, but for now...I'm just a fan, and I'm here to watch a great night of wrestling from my favorite federation. Anthony Edwards: Well, Ian, I thank you for your time, and I wish you the best of luck in future endeavors in and out of the ring. Jennings: Thanks, Tony. I can promise you I'll be making some waves in this business, probably sooner than you think, I'm set to debut in my first federation within days, and from there, it's straight to the top. [Jennings nods to Edwards and then sits back down and shoves a handful of popcorn in his mouth as Anthony leaves.] John Robertson: Ian Jennings is in the arena! Rick Wright: Maybe Thranton is here as well to kick his ass for his comments? Jack Anderson: Who knows what will happen here at Summer Explosion III. ____ _____ _____ / ___|| ____|___ / -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= \___ \| _| |_ \ ULTIMATE WRESTLING CHALLENGE SEMI-FINALS ___) | |___ ___) | Mr. Excellent vs Dark Master |____/|_____|____/ =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- -----------------------> WRITER: Mason Becker <------------------------ Jack Jack Anderson: Up next we have...

John Robertson: While Dark Master certainly IS the favorite going into this next Ultimate Wrestling Challenge bout, we can't discount Mr. Excellent! He's been quite a hot contender as of late. Rick Wright: Gimme a break Robertson...Dark Master has Steve "the Head" Lapommeray in his corner! He can't lose! Jack Anderson: With that, let's go down to the ring introductions. RA: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is a second round bout in the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge! [Crowd pops. "Ode to Joy" by Beethoven plays and the crowd begins to cheer loudly.] RA: First, from Barnsville, Georgia; at 5 feet 11 and 215 pounds, here is MR. EXCELLENT!!! [Mr. Excellent struts down the aisle. Wearing tights similar to Bret Hart's and slapping the fans high five while signing some lucky fan's autograph.] Rick Wright: That fan better keep that autograph safe, because it's going to be worth a lot someday. Jack Anderson: Because you think Mr. Excellent will be a champion someday? Rick Wright: No! Because it's going to be the last autograph he ever signs! Jack Anderson: You're just too much Rick... Rick Wright: I know! Ain't it great! [The lights dim as "Killing Me Softly" by the Fugees play. Smoke comes out from the entranceway and through it steps the scrawny geek known as Steve "The Head" Lapommeray. He leads the Dark Master to the ring.] RA: And his opponent...lead to the ring by Steve "the Head" Lapommeray...at 6 foot 6 and 290 pounds...he hails from Parts Unknown, Wyoming; here is DARK MASTER!!! Rick Wright: There he is! The man that's going to win the UWC! John Robertson: And Dark Master wasting no time in charging Mr. Excellent with a running lariat! And the match hasn't even started yet! He's hammering him in the corner with lefts and rights! Ding! Ding! Ding! Jack Anderson: Dark Master grabs Mr. Excellent...IT'S A DANGEROUS SUPLEX DDT! He covers... 1... 2... Jack Anderson: Excellent kicks out just in the nick of time! Dark Master was going for the quick win there, but he couldn't quite keep Excellent down long enough.

Rick Wright: Dark Master wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jack Anderson: Wait a minute...Mr. Excellent had his foot on the ropes! The referee is telling Dark Master that the match isn't over yet. John Robertson: And Dark Master isn't happy about that at all! He's threatening the ref! Jack Anderson: Wait a minute! Mr. Excellent is crawling to his feet! He grabs Dark Master and takes him down with a dragon screw leg drag! He's locking on the figure four!!! He has Dark Master in the figure four leglock! Rick Wright: No! Jack Anderson: But look at this! Dark Master is reversing it! He's turning it over into a Scorpion Deathlock! That's one of the moves Mr. Excellent uses! Rick Wright: Yes!!! John Robertson: But he won't give up! He's trying to get to the ropes! Jack Anderson: He's got the ropes! The referee is making Dark Master break the hold. Rick Wright: Dangit! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent, using the ropes to get to his feet. Jack Anderson: Dark Master locks in a full nelson from behind! Release full nelson suplex by Dark Master!!! Rick Wright: He's going to kill him right now! Jack Anderson: Dark Master picking up Mr. Excellent...from behind, it's a German suplex with a bridge... 1...... 2........ 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's going to end it with the Darkest Hour DDT! It was a nice match...Mr. Excellent put up a good fight, but his best wasn't enough for Dark Master... John Robertson: Wait a minute! Mr. Excellent is blocking it! He...SPINEBUSTER OFF THE TOP ROPE!!!!!!!!!!!! He countered the Darkest Hour DDT with a top rope spinebuster! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent falls off the top rope, onto Dark Master for the cover!... 1..................................... 2......................................................................... Thr............Steve Lapommeray just put Dark Master's foot on the rope! He's telling the ref that Dark Master's foot was on the rope! Rick Wright: Serves Mr. Excellent right for using the same trick earlier! Jack Anderson: Sailor Steve may have just stolen victory from Mr. Excellent! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent is rolling out to confront "the Head!" This could be a mistake! Jack Anderson: Lapommeray goes for the STEVELKICK! But Mr. Excellent ducks it! Mr. Excellent hits Lapommeray with the STEVELKICK!!!!!!!!!!! He sent him right over the guardrail! Rick Wright: He can't do that! He can't steal the Head's own move!!! DQ him! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent climbing back in...wait...Dark Master grabs him! He's lifting him up in a suplex...but Mr. Excellent drops down over Dark Master's back!!!

Against all odds, Mr. Excellent has defeated Dark Master right here at Summer Explosion! What a match we've just seen! Mr. Excellent is slowly getting up now. He can't believe he's won this bout! He was probably the only person in this building who thought he could win! Jack Anderson: Steve Lapommeray is furious, just getting up after that devastating Stevelkick he took earlier. He can't believe his Dark Master has lost! John Robertson: Wait a minute! Steve L. is coming into the ring with a steel chair! He cracks it over Mr. Excellent's head! This isn't right! Someone stop this now! Rick Wright: And look at Dark Master! He's back up now, and he's PISSED! The Head is placing the chair on the mat. Hahahaha...K-Driller on the chair! I love it! Jack Anderson: Oh come one! This isn't right! They're just being sore losers! John Robertson: They're setting Mr. Excellent on the top rope...oh no...DARKEST HOUR DDT ON THE STEEL CHAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jack Anderson: This is insanity! Rick Wright: This is GREAT! Serves Mr. Excellent right for cheating! [Crowd is booing very loudly.] Jack Anderson: And now, just to add insult to injury...Steve Lapommeray hits the Cookie Cutter on the chair. Rick Wright: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... John Robertson: Ok...we have some officials and medical personnel out here now, making Dark Master and the Head leave the ring, but the damage has been done. I'm not sure if Mr. Excellent will be able to compete in the final round! Rick Wright: Let's hope not! John Robertson: Rick, you're despicable! Rick Wright: HAHAHA...that's why Jurkschat hired me in the first place! Jack Anderson: I don't doubt that...anyways...the medical personnel are helping Mr. Excellent to his feet, but he doesn't look to good right now.

He is wearing jeans and old working boots. He walks down the aisle, slapping hands with the fans, but remaining focused on the ring.

John Robertson: Yes, I can't agree with you more, this will be Travers' stable. Going up against Steve Studd, Shane Sanders, and Cooper Concrete. As we all know Studd, and Sanders don't agree with each other anymore, and that's why this match is going to be interesting!! Rick Wright: I think it's gonna be boring, but that's just me. Jack Anderson: Anyway, let's go to the ring... RA: Ladies, and Gentleman, get ready for our next Pay Per View match-up!! This will be a Six Man tag team match!! [Big pop from the crowd.] RA: First, coming to the ring weighing in at 250 pounds, coming from Seattle, Washington he is "CHAOTIC" CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS!!! ["Addicted to Chaos" by Megadeth begins to play over the loudspeakers as "Chaotic" Christopher Childress steps out from behind the curtains and into the aisleway. Childress has short brown hair that is slicked back, a well-toned build, lightly tanned skin, and he has a confident look on his face. He wears a black leather vest over a shirtless body that has "CCC" on the left shoulder flap, all of which overlap each other in a diagonal pattern, black wrestling tights which read "Chaotic" down the right leg in red, black kneepads underneath the tights, a pair of black wrestling boots, and a pair of dark Ray-Ban shades over his eyes.] [The crowd boos as Childress walks straight to the ring, ignoring the crowd and keeping his eyes focused ahead of him. As he reaches the ring, he rolls underneath the bottom rope and then he walks to the ropes and outstretches his arm with a wry grin, soaking in the boos from the crowd. Childress then removes his shades, revealing his ice blue eyes, and then he removes his vest as well, setting them both into his corner. He then leans back against the corner turnbuckles with his arms resting on the top rope, waiting for the match to begin.] RA: Next up is a man from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 260 pounds... DAMIAN "THE PREDATOR" STEELE!!! [A hush of silence falls over the arena as "Swamp Song" by Tool begins to play over the loud speaker. Damian "The Predator" Steele begins to walk down the arena wearing a black leather vest over his bare chest. The vest has the initials "DS" on the front left flap, and "The Predator" on the back of it written as if it's in dripping blood. He wears black tights outlined in blue with "Predator" written vertically in red on his right thigh. He smirks as the crowd boos him and he raises his arms as he hops up on the ring apron. He steps in the ring and removes his vest, giving it to a ring attendant, rests against a turnbuckle and waits for the match to begin.] RA: Now, the last member of the stable, coming to you from Toronto, Ontario, Canada! Weighing in at 267 pounds... "EPIC" ERIC TRAVERS!!!! [The crowd erupts in boos as the voice of Tricia Lane echoes though the sound system saying "Eric's not just a great looking guy, and a great wrestler, he's EPIC!!!" before "Epic" by Faith No More blares through the arena. The lights in the arena fade to complete darkness, and a gold spotlight shines on the entranceway. On the Big Screen, the words "IWF/WOW GOD" are displayed in white letters at the bottom of the screen, and "ERIC TRAVERS" is displayed across the top. In between, highlights of Travers both as himself, and as the AoD, are played. As the lead vocalist begins to rap, Tricia Lane steps out from behind the curtain, followed closely by "Epic" Eric Travers. The boos are even louder now than before. Travers wears a gold robe, with "Epic" written on the back in black writing. Lane is wearing a gold dress with matching gold heels, and her auburn hair is stylishly tied up. Travers walks slowly to the ring soaking in the negative reaction of the crowd. He climbs through the ring ropes, and then holds them open for Lane. Travers then walks to the center of the ring, where Lane removes Travers' robe to reveal his gold trunks, gold armpads, and gold kneepads. Travers then walks to a corner, climbs to the second turnbuckle and raises his arms to the crowd, who boo even louder than before.] RA: Now, for the next team, coming to you from Boston, MA, weighing in at 285 pounds, he is the IWF/WoW US National Champion... He is COOPER CONCRETE!!! ["Another One Bites The Dust" by Queen blazes through the intercom system, and Cooper Concrete come's out with a pop from the fans. Shortly after Kelly James come's out from the entrance way, and they both get in the ring. Cooper lift's Kelly James up, and put's her down only to get her go outside of the ring. The song fade's out, and Coop look's out on all three of his opponents.] RA: Next, coming to you from Austin, Texas, he weighs in at 249 pounds... He is "SUPERSTAR" STEVE STUDD!!! ["Walk" by Pantera plays and the some of the crowd begins to cheer, while some of the fans, stare in awe, of "Superstar" Steve Studd. Studd makes his way to the ring with little or no emotion, as he has a cold dead stare on the ring. He climbs into the ring, and stands in the corner, awaiting his opponent.] RA: And finally from New York, NY, weighting 229 pounds, "STRIKING" SHANE SANDERS!!! ["Sway" by Coal Chamber starts up, but Shane doesn't appear] John Robertson: Well, where in the world is Shane Sanders? Jack Anderson: Who knows? RA: Once again, "STRIKING" SHANE SANDERS!!! ["Sway" by Coal Chamber starts up again, but still no Shane] John Robertson: Wait, we have Todd Hendrix back stage in front of Sanders' locker room door. Lets goto Todd. [View changes back to Todd Hendrix in front of Shane Sanders' locker room door. Todd knocks on the door] Todd Hendrix: Shane, Todd Hendrix, IWF/WOW, you in there? [The door opens] "Striking" Shane Sanders: Of course I'm in here. Where the hell else would I be? Todd Hendrix: Well, maybe in the ring, because its time for your match. "Striking" Shane Sanders: Oh really? Oh well. Todd Hendrix: OH WELL?! Why aren't you out there? "Striking" Shane Sanders: Why aren't I out there? Simple. This is a huge conspiracy by the two presidents of the IWF/WOW, Ishikawa, and Jurkschat to back me into a corner, because you look out in the ring Todd. You see 5, count them, 5 men, going for my head. I ain't gonna even try to go out there, and get ganked like that. I am not gonna risk my career for some little Wild Card match. So, Cooper Concrete, Steve Studd, have fun getting your asses kicked. Now Hendrix, get the hell outta my locker room. [Shane slams the door in Todd's face, and Todd drops the mic. He picks it back up quickly] Todd Hendrix: WELL! There you have it from the locker room, back up to you John! John Robertson: Well, I guess Shane isn't coming out right now, and I guess he won't be showing up for the whole show. Jack Anderson: Well, the referee doesn't quite know what to do. He look's around, and tells 'em to ring the bell! DING! DING!! DING!!! Rick Wright: Look at Cooper, and Studd, they look pissed!! I'M LOVING IT!! John Robertson: Well it's going to be Damian Steele going against Cooper Concrete. They get in a lock-up, Cooper gets behind him with a Hammerlock, but Steel it's him with a elbow... And another one!! Jack Anderson: Damian Steele bounces himself against to ropes, comes back, and... BIG BOOT FROM CONCRETE!!! Rick Wright: That took a lot out of Steele, but he slowly get's back up! Coop come's right behind him, and nails him with a Elbow right to the back!! John Robertson: Cooper wait's for him to get up... And he nail's him with a Dropkick!! Cooper goes in, and make's the tag to Studd. Jack Anderson: Look whose there, it's Wuzho, I guess he's coming to take a look at Cooper Concrete!! He won't let anyone close to him! Rick Wright: Anyway, let's get back to the match guys. Boy sometime even I can be quicker then you two. John Robertson: Back in the ring Steve Studd just grabbed Steele, and DDT'ed him onto the mat! He's going for the pin... 1! . . . . . 2!! . Jack Anderson: A rather quick kickout by Steele. Steve Studd goes for a Belly to Back Suplex, but Damian Steele stops him by hitting him with a couple of elbows!! Rick Wright: Steele got behind Steve Studd, and he nailed him with a Inverted DDT!! Steele went down also, but he's getting back up, and just made the tag to Travers! John Robertson: Travers get's in the ring, and smile's at the direction of Studd! [Jeers from the fans.] Jack Anderson: Travers goes right at Studd, and nails him with a Kneelift!! Travers whip's Steve Studd on the opposite ropes, Studd comes back... VICIOUS SPINEBUSTER SLAM!!! Rick Wright: Maybe that'll knock in some senses to Steve Studd!! Travers goes for the pin... 1 . . . . John Robertson: Quick kickout by Studd, I guess you'll have to do better than that if you want to get ride of this guy. Travers help's Studd up, and he set's him up for a Vertical Suplex! Travers goes for it, but Studd blocks it, and hit's him right in the gut!! [A BIG pop from the crowd!] Jack Anderson: Steve Studd gets Travers in a Front Face Lock position... DTT!!!! Studd has got to go for the pin to the fresh man! Studd crawls, and tries to go make the tag, but Eric Travers just pulled him back in the middle of the ring!! Rick Wright: That's my boy, if somebodies going to finish this, it's gonna be Travers!! John Robertson: Travers surprises Studd from behind, and Dropkicks him! That made Studd bounce back to where Travers is, and Travers got up just in time to nail him with a BELLY TO BACK SUPLEX!!! Jack Anderson: That was a fantastic move by Travers!! He's getting up with a smile upon his face, and he goes and tags in Christopher Childress!! Childress goes right on the top rope, and poses for the crowd!! Rick Wright: Childress make's the jump... FLYING KNEEDROP ONTO STEVE STUDD!!! That knocked the sense right out of Studd's head!! John Robertson: This man could very well have the best repertoire of moves in the whole league! You will see great arial skills combined with suplexes, and much, much more!! Jack Anderson: Childress get's behind Studd, and nails him with a German Suplex, and he's bridging for the pin!! 1 . . . . . 2 . . . . Rick Wright: Steve Dudd barely kicked out!!

AND NAILS HIM WITH A POWERBOMB!! John Robertson: All the men except Chris Childress roll out of the ring!! Cooper Concrete hasn't finished just yet!! He pick's up Childress, and nails him with a PILEDRIVER!!! Jack Anderson: Cooper Concrete pick's him up once more, but get's a Low Blow of his efforts!! Cooper goes down, and Childress tag's in Steele again. Steele pick's up Concrete, and bring's him down again with a Russian Leg Sweep!! Rick Wright: Cooper Concrete has really cleaned house, but Childress got a great shot in, and now Travers, and Coe still have the advantage! John Robertson: Cooper get's a rush of energy, but Steel just took him down with a Armdrag Takedown!! Steele goes right at the top turnbuckle, and nail's him with a Elbow Drop!! Jack Anderson: Steele lift's him up again, and nail's him with a Snap Suplex! He goes for the pin.... 1 . . . . . 2 . Rick Wright: Kick out, by Coop!

[Intense boos from the crowd.!] Rick Wright: HAHA, I love it, I knew they would win it, I just knew it!! John Robertson: But it was in very controversial fashion. ["Epic" by Faith No More plays throughout the intercom, and Travers, Steele, and Childress all make their way from ringside.

RA: This match is for the IWF/WOW Intercontinental and North American championships! There is no time limit! The Winner of the Intercontinental championship is the first man to win two falls.

Skiles wears long white trunks with a red heart in the front near the crotch area with Skiles written on it. He has red elbow and kneepads and fights with white boots with "Legacy" written in gold.

RA: Introducing the IWF/WOW North American champion, from Hollywood, California, at 7' and 310 pounds, being lead by his valet, Lady Veronica, here is "HOT STUFF" ALEX MARTINEZ!

John Robertson: The Idol is talking to the referee ... the referee is walking to the edge of the ring to talk to the ring announcer. RA: THE IDOL HAS INFORMED THE REFEREE THAT THE WINNER OF THE FALL IS THE PERSON THAT APPLIES A LEGACY LOCK ON TOP OF THE LADDER! ALTHOUGH JOHNNY SKILES DID NOT SUBMIT TO THE HOLD, THE IDOL DID IN FACT HAVE THE HOLD APPLIED ON TOP OF THE LADDER! THE WINNER OF THE FOURTH FALL IS THE IDOL! EACH WRESTLER HAS ONE FALL EACH! THE NEXT FALL IS TO BE FOUGHT UNDER NORMAL RULES! Rick Wright: Skiles is pissed off! He can't believe it! He wasn't specific enough with the details of his stipulation, so the Idol has won the fall even though Skiles never submitted! John Robertson: Skiles is yelling at the referee and he doesn't see Stanson and the Idol! DOUBLE ... uummm ... a Peace Crusher from the Idol and an Ice-Edge from Stanson at the same time on Skiles! Jack Anderson: They see Martinez struggling to his feet ... they force him to the ropes ... double whip to the ropes ... DOUBLE BACKDROP SENDS MARTINEZ OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE FLOOR! Rick Wright: What? Idol punch Stanson! Jack Anderson: The Idol is bossing Stanson around! They grab Skiles ... DOUBLE TEAM VERTICAL SUPLEX! SKILES WAS JUST SUPLEXED OVER THE ROPES TO THE FLOOR! SKILES AND MARTINEZ ARE BOTH ON THE FLOOR! John Robertson: The referee is counting them out! Rick Wright: I don't understand what is going on! OH! Here we go! Idol and Stanson are nose to nose in the center of the ring! That's more like it! They shove each other! They're going to go toe to toe ... WHAT THE ... ?! Jack Anderson: The Idol just collapsed! He's down on his back! Did Stanson hit him? John Robertson: I don't think so. The referee turns around and stop the count out. Stanson has a big smile on his face! He drops to his knees ... STANSON IS COVERING THE IDOL! 1 ... 2 ... 3! Rick Wright: What happened? Stanson won the fall? Stanson is ... the new Intercontinental champion? John Robertson: I don't think he touched Idol! The Idol might have just dropped from exhaustion ... I think. Jack Anderson: Everyone in the building is in shock! John Robertson: Stanson and the Idol are both back on their feet! The Idol isn't hurt! He isn't exhausted! Look at him jump up and down! STANSON AND THE IDOL ARE EMBRACING EACH OTHER! Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! IDOL SUCKS! STANSON SUCKS! IDOL SUCKS! STANSON SUCKS! RA: THE WINNER OF THE FIFTH FALL AND NEW IWF/WOW INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION... "BLACK ICE" AJ STANSON! THE LAST FALL IS A FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH! THE WINNER OF THIS FALL BECOMES IWF/WOW NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPION! John Robertson: It was a set-up! Stanson and the Idol are working together! Stanson is handed the Intercontinental belt. He is no longer allowed to participate in the match. Stanson is joining us at ringside. Rick Wright: The Idol is with him! AJ Stanson: Since I've just won the Intercontinental title, I can't participate anymore in this match but to be honest, I don't want to continue anyhow! AHAHAHA! Idol: The NA belt ain't worth it! Jack Anderson: They're BOTH going to sit out this fall? John Robertson: Stanson rolls back into the ring and is sitting on a turnbuckle, rising his belt high in the air. The Idol is standing in front of him. Rick Wright: I knew it! Stanson can't win a match on his own. Now the Idol is his bodyguard! Jack Anderson: Nevada is on the ring apron cheering. I guess she was in on it. Lady Veronica doesn't look happy. She walks up behind Nevada ... PULLS NEVADA'S HAIR! NEVADA AND VERONICA ARE BRAWLING ON THE FLOOR! Rick Wright: Girls, girls, there's enough of Archie to go around. John Robertson: Martinez sees the fight and goes over to break it up. Rick Wright: I won't get between two women fighting. MEOW! John Robertson: Martinez has Veronica by the waist and pulls her out of the fight! VERONICA JUST SCRATCHED ALEX'S EYES! Jack Anderson: Look at her face! It was an accident! Rick Wright: Skiles is behind Martinez ... ROLL UP FROM BEHIND! 1 ... 2 ... 3! DING DING DING! RA: THE WINNER OF THE SIXTH AND FINAL FALL AND NEW IWF/WOW NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPION, "LEGACY" JOHNNY SKILES! Rick Wright: Skiles grabs his belt and is running to the back. He may be looking for Cooper Concrete, after that little stunt Cooper tried to pull on Skiles by pulling the ladder over. Jack Anderson: An unhappy Alex Martinez is walking to the back with Lady Veronica discussing the turn of events we've just witnessed. Rick Wright: Stanson is on the floor checking on Nevada's injuries. John Robertson: Steve Studd is in the ring. He's calling the Idol over to talk to him. Jack Anderson: He ... raises the Idol's hand! Rick Wright: CLOTHESLINE! Studd follows up by stomping the living hell out of the Idol! These idiots in the crowd are yelling and cheering at the sight of the fallen Idol. John Robertson: WHAT THE HELL?! Who is that? Rick Wright: What in the world? Jack Anderson: From the rafters, some guy with a bungee cord tied around his waist just clobbered Studd with a hockey stick! Now he's splashing Studd every time he comes back on! Rick Wright: He's splashing Studd multiple times because he's on a bungee cord! John Robertson: He's wearing all black clothes and he has white face paint. He has medium length dark brown hair. Rick Wright: Where have I seen this before? Jack Anderson: Studd is knocked out! This man stops bouncing and points his stick at the Idol. The Idol just stares at him in shock. John Robertson: Stanson rolls into the ring to save the Idol! This mystery man in being pulled back up to the rafters! He tosses an envelope at the pair. Jack Anderson: I think there's two guys up there pulling him back up! Rick Wright: Did you see his face paint? It looked like bird shit running down his face! Jack Anderson: Who was that guy? John Robertson: The Idol opens the envelope and tosses it towards us. I've got the envelope. Jack Anderson: What does it say? John Robertson: An invitation to join the Phlock. Compliments of Corvidae. P.S. There will be no tables and chairs. [The Idol rasies AJ Stanson's hand in victory as both me are in joy. Nevada gets a mic and gives it to the Idol. He begins to speak.] Idol: Hahaha. This is great. Hey - AJ, did you see the expression on Alexis' face after we double teamed him...hahaha! Oh - I hope his pretty little head ain't hurt....hahahaha. [The Idol falls down from laughter as Nevada grabs the mic from Idol.] Nevada: Oh look at the confusion. [she points to the crowd] What's wrong you guys....in a little state of shock? I mean honestly...would AJ Stanson really choose to align himself with a _loser_ like the Idol? Stanson: [Nev throws him the mic] Oh hell yeah, you better believe it! Alex Martinez, you were convinced that I was gonna go with your plans...and when I think of it, they sounded pretty good. But just not good enough. My man Idol here had other plans in mind that honestly, AJ Black Ice Stanson just couldn't pass on. Oh the guy has a mind of his own...I've got a mind of my own...Our two heads just pretty much did it...._pretty much_.... John Robertson: What's the noise? [A loud murmur beings moving through the crowd, and Stanson looks confused, glances over, sees nothing and goes to begin speaking again, his back to the direction from which the noise is coming. Then the camera catches the form of a man dashing through the crowd and jumping the guard railing like a man possessed, carrying a metal folding chair and screaming various obscenities at the top of his lungs. The camera picks up a shot of his face and is Ian "Laser" Jennings, escaped from the police and back in the arena.] Jack Anderson: WHAT THE HELL?? DIDN'T THE POLICE ESCORT THIS LUNATIC FROM THE BUILDING? THIS MAN IS SUPPOSED TO BE IN JAIL!! HE'S ALREADY CAUSED ENOUGH TROUBLE TONIGHT!!! [At incredible speed, Jennings slams the chair across the skull of the security guard feebly trying to stop him, and slides under the bottom ring ropes, skidding a third of the way across the ring. Idol runs at Jennings, Jennings trips him and dashes at Stanson with the chair held high above his head, veins practically bulging from his purplish red face, still screaming various remarks about the state of, or lack thereof, of Stanson's future on this mortal coil. Stanson whirls around at the last second, looks totally taken aback, does a double take and sort of freezes. Jennings winds up in something akin to a baseball swing and lets loose. Stanson ducks at the absolutely last possible milli-second and Jennings misses completly, the momentum of the swing spinning him almost completly around. Stanson begins standing up again, and Jennings raises the chair again....] Jack Anderson: WHAT THE ****? [The entire arena stares on in shock as Jenning's look of absolute rage instaneously goes right to a full grin, and then into a belly laugh that shakes his whole body. He drops the chair to the mat and hugs Stanson like he was a long lost friend. The crowd sits in confused silence as Stanson, Idol and Jennings all crack out in laughter.] Rick Wright: What the HELL is going on here? This is NUTS! John Robertson: Evidently.....hell, what I am kidding, I have no CLUE what's going on!!! [Stanson hands the mic to a grinning Ian Jennings, who accepts it an exaggerated bow, then snaps his head back quickly, throwing his mane of blonde hair back with it.] Jennings: _LADIES_ AND _GENTLEMEN_, _BOYS_ AND _GIRLS_, hopeless welfare cases of all ages....may I introduce the completing variable in this equation....the man who has you all sitting there drooling in your laps wondering what the HELL is going on....The man who has a certain oversized lummox sitting in the back picking glass shards out of his hair....and the man who is going to add some much needed SPARK to this dull and DYING federation....... [Jennings pauses a minute, looks around him, gives a confused shrug, then pulls the mic back to his face.] Jennings: ____________ME___________________! [Jennings begins roaring with laughter like he has just stated something absolutely hilarious, but eventually composes himself enough to toss the mic back to.....the Idol.] Idol: Hahaha. Ian, you are DaMan...uh..I mean..the _MAN_! Did everyone actually think that a few doughnut eating, and coffee drinking men who are overweight could stop THIS man? [Sarcastically] Opps...was _I_ just talking about the Inner Circle? Hahaha. [The Idol walks towards the middle of the ring where Jennings and Stanson stand. The Idol places one of his elbows on the shoulder of Stanson, and the other on the should of Jennings. He then begins to speak again.] Idol: Ever since I've joined this weak, good for nothing federation known as IWF/WoW, I gave it life. When I joined all I saw was the Inner Circle running the show? Now...that's messed up! Almost as bad when Pain Inc was in charge..wait, that's _sad_! Then the New Alliance came along. All I have to say, can it be any worse? Now we have the POW, AY, MA, and Traver's friends __trying__ to run the show? This is horrible! Heck, as Intercontinental Champion, _I_ was the ___show___! I was bringing up the ratings in the IWF/WoW, but someone was trying to hold me back....Alexis. Alexis, you won't hold me back...heck, you _won't_ be back after what [pats Ian Jennings on the back.] Mr, Jennings did to your little soft skull! [The Idol begins to giggle as he takes a few steps back. He begins to speak once again.] Idol: It seems tonight is a night of surprises! It's no where from being over. Oh - No..no..no! Since all of you [Pointing to the crowd] idiots actually believed Stanson would win this title for you...All I have to say for you complete _idiots_ is GIVE ME A BREAK! [The Idol gives a disguist look at the crowd as if he was their parents by putting his hands on his hips. Both Jennings and Stanson are laughing. The Idol brings the mic up to his mouth again as he speaks.] Idol: Since all of _you_ idiots seems to believe _anything_, How would like you to see a New Alliance? No..No...not the New Alliance which was headed by Rick "I wish I was good enough to compete in the IWF/WoW" Styles. How about a different alliance like no others...how about a POWER ALLIANCE!!!? [Crowd goes wild...yet still in a state of confusion. Idol tosses the mic back to Stanson who starts shaking his head, and starts walking around quicker and quicker inside the ring. He finally stops in between Jennings and Idol and drops to his knees, arms in the air.] Stanson: I say HOT DAMN WHAT A RUSH!!!! [starts to speak sarcastically] Mr. Idol, are you seriously thinking of the PA....the legend stable? The almighty best stable of all stables known to man and beyond?? Give me some time here....I gotta think a little! [He then drops dead to the mat in an exaggerated manner and stays there for a few seconds. Nevada sits on him and he finally gets back up...] Stanson: With an offer like that on the table Idol, even a man like AJ f'n Stanson couldn't resist!! POWER ALLIANCE is in da house peons!!!!! Watch and weep! Because tonight, it was made obvious that if sister Alexis didn't see it coming and that if Johnny Boy didn't see it coming, then no one did, and all the fun is yet to come!!!! [He sneaks up behind Nevada and puts the mic in her face, she smiles and takes it.] Nevada: Our main man IAN "Laser" Jennings has just been given a GO TO JAIL CARD...will be spending the night in a cell they say! But _hey_, where's the fun if there ain't no damn thrill!!?? [mixed reaction from the crowd as Jennings goes up to one of the corners and screams.] That's what this _new_ PA will be all about; fun, games and flying carcass everywhere! No Coops, no Stoney's, no Desert Scorpions, but we got an Idol, a Jennings and a Stanson! And the best God damn manager on the face of the earth..._ME_. [Nevada throws the mic back to Ian Jennings, who accepts it with one hand, then gives the crowd a raised eyebrow and sorts of laughs.] Jennings: You know...I didn't figure that I'd get my feet kissed for gracing you all with my presence...but I feel I'm wasting my talent on drooling idiots like you....look at the lot of you...you can't except the truth even when it's slapping you in the face like you just insulted its mama. Yeah....that's AJ Stanson standing beside me and the Idol and this is the POWER ALLIANCE, new and DAMN well improved. I know how all of you cherish your little PA merchandise and your dream world of idealism and morality that you were lead into....but while you've been asleep for your entire lives, things have changed....and I think it's high time you all _DEAL_ _WITH_ _IT!_ [The crowd practically drowns Jennings out in boos, and he smirks and continues.] Jennings: Look, the longer you carry on like you've got a tree branch up your ass, the longer I'm going to plant these two feet of mine in the middle of the ring and give you your daily unwanted dose of the way things are. And the way things are now is that the new PA is the ones making _AND_ breaking the rules...if you don't like it, I would like to be the first one to invite you to TAKE A *BLEEP* HIKE. [crowd boos loudly] For too long, this fed has been run by a bunch of crotchety bitter old stars of the past, whining about everything they've done for this federation and reminding everyone how great they used to be...and our resident Bill and Monica basing all of their decisions on who was the first in line to kiss their asses. Well, I'm about to stir some spice into the pot to what is a dull and lifeless federation. My once in a lifetime talent....and my ever sunny personality more than make up for my lack of real experience...I might be a rookie, but I'm already mountains above and beyond most of the so-called "veterans" in this federation. All a big name means to me is that the fed suits pushed you right, or that you happened to be in the right place at the right time...it's scary, really, there should be a law against being as good as I am. Hey, you can call it arrogance...I call it REALISM. _Never_ before, in the history of this sport have you been _graced_ by someone of my caliber. I am the _complete_ GIFT WRAPPED PACKAGE from GOD HIMSELF to the sport of wrestling, this DYING federation and THE WOMEN OF THIS PLANET. So, the paralyzing bolt of the Stun Blast is about to begin slamming into more than a few 'roid enhanced forms around these parts...and judging by a quick glance at the roster....THERE AIN'T A *CENSORED* THING YOU CAN DO TO STOP IT. Wha? Oh, it's everybody's favorite tax wasters....they look pissed, there must be a deal on chocolate glaze at Dunkin's today...sorrow to keep you waiting fellas, I'll be on my way now. [The camera zooms in on a group of nearly a dozen city police officers, who swarm the ring and surround Ian while Stanson and Idol look on in admusement.] Jennins: HEY NOW!!! WHAT THE HELL?? Get your greasy mitts of me, YOU REDNECK BASTARD!! OW!! RAPE!!! [The entire group shoves Jennings to the ground and handcuffs him behind his back, but the mic is beside his mouth on the ground and is picking up his rantings, and one of the cops reading him his rights, which he ignores.] Jennings: You're a little TOO good at forcing guys to lay on their stomaches...YEAH, I'M TALKING TO YOU, You *BLEEP* SAN FRANCISCO TREAT!!!! GET YOUR _*BLEEP*_ HANDS OFF MY ASS!!! DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, YOU SICK *BLEEP*!!! [Not a bit amused, the cops pull Jennings to his feet and drag him out of the ring none too gently to the back, while he rants and raves some more....the camera zooms in on the image, and at the last minute before he is pulled behind the curtains, he shoves his handcuffed hands through the web of officers and flashes the PA hand signal to Idol and Stanson...and then flashes the universal symbol of brotherly love to the crowd cheering at him being led away in handcuffs.] John Robertson: Unbelieveable... Rick Wright: The return of the Power Alliance! Jack Anderson: And a new attitude for AJ Stanson.. John Robertson: What a night this has been. ____ _____ _____ / ___|| ____|___ / -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= \___ \| _| |_ \ ULTIMATE WRESTLING CHALLENGER FINALS ___) | |___ ___) | Wuzho vs Mr. Excellent |____/|_____|____/ =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- -------------------------> WRITER: Jon Idell <------------------------- Jack Anderson: It seems like we are about ready to go to our next match, the finals of the UWC Tournament!

Do you think anyone cares about Mr. Excellent or Wuzho? _NO_! John Robertson: Actually, I find Wuzho to be a great wrestler! Rick Wright: Bless you. Do you have a cold? You must be sick because I thought you just said Wuzho was good. John Robertson: I did. Rick Wright: You _are_ sick! Jack Anderson: Be quiet.

Introducing first, representing the top bracket of the UWC tournament; hailing from The Outskirts of Romania, and weighing in at two-hundred and fifty-seven pounds. A member of the POW... WUUUZZZHOOOO!!!!!! ["Serial Thrilla" by Prodigy plays over the PA. Wuzho steps out from behind the curtains to a large pop from the crowd, to which he replies with a loud "ARIMA" at the top of his lungs, which the crowd answers back with an "Arima" shout of their own. He is wearing jeans, and old working boots. He walks down the aisle, slapping hands with the fans, but remaining focused on the ring. He jumps into the middle of the ring and shouts out another "ARIMA" for the crowd.] RA: And his opponent, representing the bottom bracket of the UWC tournament; hailing from Barnsville, GA, and weighing in at two-hundred and fifteen pounds.... MISTER... EXXXCELLLLLENNTTT!!!! [Mr.Excellent struts down the aisle.

DING! DING! DING! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent wastes NO time! As he quickly attacks Wuzho! Dropkick from Mr. Excellent! Snap suplex from Mr. Excellent!

Rick Wright: No...we will be in the middle of a great match when Stonebreaker gets his behind kicked by Robert d'Arotis! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent with a body slam, and he's headed back to the top rope! Rick Wright: Wait...I think I'll stay. Maybe Mr. Excellent will fall of the top rope, and break his neck! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent CONNECTS with a top rope fistdrop! Here's a cover! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... KICKOUT! Jack Anderson: We almost had a winner there. Mr. Excellent is back on the attack! He sure isn't wasting any time! Mr. Excellent with a kneebar! Rick Wright: Looks like Wuzho is gonna need a crowbar to get out of the kneebar! Hahaha! John Robertson: Not so funny. But, Wuzho sure is in lots of trouble. Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent releases the hold, and gets up. Here comes a kneedrop to the head! NO! Wuzho moves out of the way! Mr. Excellent is holding his knee in pain! John Robertson: Things are NOT good for Wuzho as he needs to use the ropes to help him to his feet. Wuzho is finally standing, and he's waiting for Mr. Excellent to get to his feet. Mr. Excellent is to his feet, and Wuzho MISSES WITH A LARIAT!!! Mr. Excellent from behind PUSHES WUZHO FACE FIRST INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! Wuzho is staggering...Mr. Excellent with a roll-up from behind! Here's the count! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... T - KICKOUT! Jack Anderson: What power shown by Wuzho to kick out after his punishment! Mr. Excellent picks Wuzho put to his feet and whips him! John Robertson: Dropkick from Mr. Excellent...NO! Wuzho holds onto the ropes! Mr. Excellent is up to his feet, and WUZHO CLOTHESLINES MR. EXCELLENT OVER THE TOP ROPE! BOTH MEN WENT OVER THE TOP FROM THAT MOVE!!! Rick Wright: C'mon! Ref make the ten count quicker! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent gets to his feet first, and whips Wuzho to the the guardrail, BUT WUZHO REVERSES IT! Mr. Excellent is stagger from the force that he hit the guardrail, and WUZHO HITS MR. EXCELLENT WITH A DDT!!! Rick Wright: Yes! The ref is at a 4 count! John Robertson: Wuzho rolls Mr. Excellent back in the ring, and Wuzho follows behind. Rick Wright: Boo! Ref needs to count faster! Jack Anderson: Bulldog from Wuzho! Wuzho applies an armbar! Rick Wright: [Sarcastically] WHAT A MOVE!!! I THINK HE'S SUBMITTING!!! Hahahaha. John Robertson: That's not funny! Both men are back to their feet, but Wuzho has a standing armbar on. NO! Wuzho sends Mr. Excellent back to his knees with a shoulder block! Jack Anderson: WOW! From his knees, Mr. Excellent executes a fireman's carry...BUT WAIT! WUZHO STILL HAS THE ARMBAR ON!!! WOW! John Robertson: Once again both men are back to their feet, and this time Wuzho is TWISTING MR. EXCELLENT'S ARM! Rick Wright: I guess his arm isn't excellent anymore...hahaha!

Wuzho picks up Mr. Excellent, and whips him....Mr. Excellent reverses it...DROP TOE HOLD! Mr. Excellent locks Wuzho in a S.T.F.! He's working on the knee and the leg of Wuzho! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent lets go of the deadly submission. Wuzho gets up...Dropkick to the knee by Mr. Excellent! Jack Anderson: Looks like Mr. Excellent is making it so that Wuzho's knee is so weak that he can not kick out of the Excellence Of Execution, a fisherman's suplex. John Robertson: Wuzho gets up, and a KNEEBREAKER by Mr. Excellent! Rick Wright: That's going to leave a mark! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent is dragging Wuzho around the ring by leg....NO! Mr. Excellent slides to the outside, and has a FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK WITH THE USE OF THE RINGPOST!!! WUZHO IS SCREAMING IN PAIN!!! Jack Anderson: The ref forces Mr. Excellent to release the hold. To come to think of it, it's kinda an upset for Mr. Excellent to be here! Rick Wright: Why? Because he sucks? Jack Anderson: No. Who would have thought Mr. Excellent would beat Richard Blair? Rick Wright: Everyone! Jack Anderson: Okay..bad example. Who would think Mr. Excellent would beat Dark Master? Remember a few weeks ago on Mayhem, Mr. Excellent lost to Dark Master! Rick Wright: Luck! Jack Anderson: Well, luck my strike two times in one night if Mr. Excellent can put away Wuzho. NO! Mr. Excellent just missed with a top rope kneedrop! John Robertson: Mr. Excellent is slow to get up, but Wuzho is sitting in the corner, and he _can't_ get up! Mr. Excellent is up, and he helps up Wuzho. WOW! Look at those chops in the corner from Mr. Excellent. Mr. Excellent whips Wuzho, and goes for a BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX, BUT HE CAN'T GET THE BIG MAN UP SINCE HE'S BLOCKING IT! WUZHO NAILS MR. EXCELLENT WITH A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX OF HIS OWN!!! Jack Anderson: Wuzho is still hurt! He's having problems getting to up because of his bad knees. Mr. Excellent is up, and runs towards the ropes. Wuzho finally gets up, but MR. EXCELLENT HIT HIM WITH AN ASAI MOONSAULT! Here's the count! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... THREE!!!! John Robertson: NO! The ref is signaling for a TWO count! That was soooooo close! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent is back on the attack as he picks up Wuzho and leans him against the ropes. Mr. Excellent leaps in the air...and GOES FOR A FRANKENSTEINER!! But Mr. Excellent CAN'T EXECUTE THE MOVE! WUZHO BRINGS UP MR. EXCELLENT AS HIGH AS HE CAN! John Robertson: IF WUZHO DROPS HIM WITH A POWERBOMB, THE MATCH IS OVER!!! WAIT! WUZHO'S KNEES ARE CAVING IN! WUZHO CAN'T HANDLE THE WEIGHT! HE'S STAGGERING! HE JUST FELL OVER THE TOP ROPE, AND MR. EXCELLENT IS ON TOP OF HIM! I guess that's a sitdown splash executed by Mr. Excellent that took him almost 30 seconds to get off. Jack Anderson: Wow! Mr. Excellent was soooo close from losing! Mr. Excellent awaits for Wuzho to get up....Wuzho with the aid of the guardrail is getting up....SUPERKICK by Mr. Excellent..NO! WUZHO FELL DOWN AGAIN! Mr. Excellent landed on the guardrail! Rick Wright: That hadda to hurt! Landing on his groin area... John Robertson: Both men slowly roll into the ring, and Wuzho with the aid of the ropes is up first! Mr. Excellent is back up to his feet, and Wuzho charges at Mr. Excellent, but WUZHO TRIPS! Wuzho tripped on his own! Rick Wright: What a putz! Jack Anderson: Mr. Excellent taking advantage here, as he locks Wuzho in a sharpshooter, which he likes to refer it as Essence Of Excellence. John Robertson: Wuzho with his long reach is able to reach the ropes. MR. Excellent releases the hold, and quickly drags Wuzho to his feet, and WUZHO HITS MR. EXCELLENT WITH A HEADBUTT! Jack Anderson: Wuzho has studied Mr. Excellent because he knew Mr. Excellent was going for his fisherman suplex. Wuzho picks up Mr. Excellent, and whips him! Back body drop! NO! Wuzho went for what looked like a back body drop, but instead of flipping Mr. Excellent over his back, he held on...and he's about to execute a SAMOAN DROP! John Robertson: NO! Mr. Excellent COUNTERS WITH A CRUFIX PINFALL! Here's the count! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... THRE - NO! NO! NO! Kickout! Jack Anderson: This is amazing, Wuzho's ability to kick out! Rick Wright: Amazing? I'm not even going to ask. John Robertson: Wuzho isn't moving, it looks like it's his knee again. Mr. Excellent with a top rope legdrop!!! He's a pin! ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... THREE!!! Jack Anderson: NO! Once again, SOOOOOO close! Looks like he's going for his fisherman suplex! He's bringing Wuzho to his feet...NO! Wuzho grabbed Mr. Excellent's trunks, and threw him outside of the ring! John Robertson: This is going to buy Wuzho some to time to get to his feet! And I'm right! Rick Wright: For the first time. John Robertson: Wuzho is up, and he's awaiting for Mr. Excellent to get back in the ring. Mr. Excellent re-enters the ring, AND A FLYING FOREARM SMASH BY WUZHO! WHAT A MOVE!!! Here's a pin... ONE... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... TWO... ... KICKOUT! Jack Anderson: It's not going to help out, since Mr. Excellent is full of energy as he has not been hurt in a long time. John Robertson: Mr. Excellent gets up easily, and Wuzho is still on the mat. Mr. Excellent executes an armbar! Wuzho is fighting his way to his feet! Jack Anderson: Wuzho is up to his feet, but BARELY since he's having problems standing! Mr. Excellent turns the move into a hammerlock! John Robertson: WAIT! WUZHO REVERSE IT INTO HIS OWN HAMMERLOCK! NO....HE TURNS THE HAMMERLOCK INTO A FULL NELSON..... [Crowd pops.] FULL NELSON SLAM!!!!!!! HE calls that the Knife! That's his set up move the Quell of Fire! That's powerbomb! Jack Anderson: But Wuzho fell down to add impact to that full nelson slam. Mr. Excellent is almost motionless. Wuzho can't stand anymore. He's dragging himself to the nearest corner. John Robertson: With the help of the turnbuckle, Wuzho is standing, and Wuzho is POINTING TO THE TOP ROPE!?!!? Rick Wright: He's going to fly! Jack Anderson: Wuzho is climbing to the top rope! HE'S GOING FOR A MOONSAULT! OH MY GOD!!! Rick Wright: WHAT!? John Robertson: WUZHO LEAPS..... ... ... ... [A HUGE "CRASHING" sound is heard.] John Robertson: OH MY GOD!

It's the IWF/WOW World Heavyweight title match. On one side, we've got the challenger, Robert d'Artois. Last year at Summer Explosion Robert d'Artois won the Ultimate Wrestling Championship. A few weeks later he picked up the US National title and held that for close to four months. Don't forget that he also won the Independence Day Rumble on July 4th to earn the title shot. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker isn't that bad either. Christopher Stonebreaker defeated Desert Scorpion on Friday Night WARFARE July 18, 1997 to win the Intercontinental title... he then held onto that title until he lost it February 9th to Doug Sullivan, however only due to interference by the Prophet. However Stonebreaker got revenge against the Prophet at WrestleFest II on March 22nd where he became the new World Champion! Rick Wright: Now tonight could be his toughest challenge! John Robertson: Tonight Stonebreaker will be out for revenge against d'Artois, who is the founder of the Modern Apocalypse. If you remember in late June, Vincent Bannister attacked Stonebreaker nearly ending his career. We later found out that it was Robert d'Artois who paved the way for Bannister to get into the federation, and make the attack on Stonebreaker. Tonight, Christopher Stonebreaker will be out to do just what d'Artois tried to do to him, to end his career. Jack Anderson: Lets get down to the ring. DING! DING! DING! RA: Our next match is scheduled for one fall and is for the IWF/WOW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP... [Huge pop from the fans.] RA: Introducing first... ["The Reflecting God" by Marilyn Manson start playing. The lights go completely dark and then a small white spot comes out and light the backstage entrance. Coming back from there is a 6'0'', 240 lbs, who seems rather well built. He stops after getting out. You can see that he is dressed in a black robe. Behind the robe, "d'Artois" is written in blood-like letters. The man, who is Robert d'Artois, then starts walking toward the ring, as slowly more white spots of light are appearing on his way. In the middle of the ring, an emblem of the flag of France appears. But it is deformed... The blue seems like thick ice... The red seems like blood... And the white seem inexistant, replaced by a tone of gray... Robert d'Artois slowly gets in the ring and you can see his long, curly brown hair worn in a mini-ponytail with the rest of the hair left without any barrier. It is not well placed hair... d'Artois slowly removes his ring robe to reveal amateur type tights, black and dark blue, with "d'Artois" written in the back in blood like letters. He gets to his corner, and waits for the match to start, as the lights are coming back.] RA: From Orleans, France. He weighs in at 240 lbs. He is a former Ultimate Wrestling Champion, and a former US National Champion. Here is the challenger and the leader of the Modern Apocalypse... R O B E R T D ' A R T O I S ! ! ! RA: And his opponent... ["A Country Boy Can Survive" by Hank Williams, Jr. plays over the loud speakers and the fans in the Halifax Metro Centre go wild as the current IWF/WOW World Heavyweight Champion, Christopher Stonebreaker, walks out along with fellow POW members Wuzho and Big Dick. Stonebreaker has short brown hair and is well defined. For ring tights, he has long black trunks with Stonebreaker written down one side, and Sledgehammer drawn down the other. He also wears black boots and elbow pads.] RA: From Lafayette, Louisiana. He weights in at 265 lbs. He holds the record for longest title reign in IWF/WOW history, holding onto the Intercontinental title for longer then six months. He was also voted best wrestler in the IWF/WOW. Here is the current IWF/WOW Heavyweight Champion of the World... C H R I S T O P H E R S T O N E B R E A K E R ! ! ! DING! DING! DING! John Robertson: The bell rings and we're ready to get this match underway. Jack Anderson: Christopher Stonerbeaker and Robert d'Artois are facing off one on one in the center of the ring. It's a stare down... Rick Wright: Who is going to move first... John Robertson: It's d'Artois.. he goes for a punch! NO!! Blocked by Christopher Stonebreaker! Stonebreaker fires back and lands a punch to the face of d'Artois! Another one! Again! d'Artois falls to the mat and Stonebreaker is going after him! Jack Anderson: d'Artois rolls out of the ring and Stonebreaker is going after him. He wants to keep this in the ring. Rick Wright: Stonebreaker comes from behind and he throws Robert d'Artois back into the ring. John Robertson: Stonebreaker gets back in himself however d'Artois gets to his feet first and starts stomping on the back of Stonebreaker to try and keep him down. Jack Anderson: d'Artois picks up Stonebreaker and sets him up... SNAP SUPLEX! He hit that perfectly. Rick Wright: d'Artois has a confident look on his face. I would be more careful. But at least d'Artois isn't cheating like Stonebreaker is. Jack Anderson: What do you mean? Rick Wright: Just look around the ring. Stonebreaker has Wuzho, who just won the Ultimate Wrestling Challenge, and Big Dick out here. d'Artois came out alone! John Robertson: I highly doubt that the POW's are here to interfere. Likely more to keep an eye on d'Artois. Jack Anderson: d'Artois now with Christopher Stonebreaker... BACK SUPLEX! John Robertson: Smart move by d'Artois to work on the back of Stonebreaker. Jack Anderson: d'Artois now stomps on Stonebreaker. Rick Wright: d'Artois is really off to a good start here against Stonebreaker. John Robertson: d'Artois picks up Christopher Stonebreaker. It looks like he's trying to put him in a bearhug... Jack Anderson: NO!! Stonebreaker takes control and nails Robert d'Artois with a belly to belly suplex! What a move by the champion! Rick Wright: Stonebreaker gets to his feet with d'Artois not fair behind... John Robertson: STONEBREAKER CATCHES D'ARTOIS WITH A CLOTHESLINE! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker off the ropes now... d'Artois is back up... ANOTHER HUGE CLOTHESLINE BY STONEBREAKER!! Rick Wright: The World Champion is fighting back against d'Artois with a series of clotheslines and he's looking good. John Robertson: d'Artois comes after Stonebreaker now... POWERSLAM!! Stonebreaker caught d'Artois and got him good! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker goes for the cover on d'Artois! 1......... 2.......... KICK OUT! Rick Wright: The big mistake by Stonebreaker that time was not hooking the leg. John Robertson: Stonebreaker picks Robert d'Artois back up and continues his onslaught against him. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker picks up d'Artois... PILEDRIVER BY THE CHAMPION!! Rick Wright: OH!! He drove d'Artois' head into the mat that time. I'm not sure if d'Artois will be able to get up. Jack Anderson: d'Artois wants the World Title, and he will do whatever it takes to get the title. He will fight or die trying. John Robertson: Stonebreaker waits slowly as d'Artois gets to his feet with the use of the ropes. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker goes over and grabs Robert d'Artois. Irish whip sends Robert d'Artois into the ropes... he bounces off the other side... HUGE BACK BODY DROP BY CHRISTOPHER STONEBREAKER!! Rick Wright: He sent d'Artois flying at least a mile high with that! John Robertson: Stonebreaker comes right after d'Artois not letting him get any rest, which is a smart move on his part. Jack Anderson: He has him set up... DOUBLE UNDERHOOK SUPLEX BY STONEBREAKER! John Robertson: Great move by Stonebreaker! Rick Wright: Hardly. I could do better. Jack Anderson: I'd like to see you try Rick, because I have my doubt that you would be able to do better. John Robertson: Christopher Stonebreaker now picks up Robert d'Artois. Jack Anderson: The champion is setting the challenger up... BACK BREAKER BY STONE!! Rick Wright: Look at d'Artois. He's taken a lot of punishment early in this match and he looks hurt. He needs to turn around this match and quickly. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is now trying to put d'Artois into a boston crab. Rick Wright: He's turning it over... d'Artois is fighting to get to the ropes! Come on! John Robertson: Stonebreaker has it on!!! BUT D'ARTOIS REACHES THE ROPES! Christopher Stonebreaker must let go of the hold. Rick Wright: d'Artois' back must be killing him. John Robertson: He's taken a lot of punishment to the back. Stonebreaker now picks him up. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker sets d'Artois up.... PILEDRIVER BY THE WORLD CHAMPION!! John Robertson: Ohh... he really drove d'Artois' head into the mat! Rick Wright: Robert d'Artois is not moving. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker covers... John Robertson: The count... 1............ 2............. LAST SECOND KICK OUT BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Jack Anderson: I'm surprised he was able to kick out of that! Rick Wright: d'Artois is a great athlete in great condition, what is so surprising about that? Jack Anderson: Well, Stonebreaker has really been in control for a good portion of this match. I'm not sure how much more d'Artois can take. John Robertson: Stonebreaker waits as d'Artois gets up, so that he can take a quick breather himself. Jack Anderson: d'Artois comes after Stonebreaker. He still has some energy left, and he'll do whatever it takes to get that title from Stonebreaker. Rick Wright: d'Artois has been here nearly eighteen months! You can bet he'll be doing anything and everything possible to get that title. John Robertson: d'Artois comes after Stonebreaker... CRUCIFIX BY D'ARTOIS!! Jack Anderson: NO!!! Stonebreaker reverses it... he nails a Samoan drop on d'Artois!! Rick Wright: OH! The pain... I'm not sure how d'Artois can still go on, however he is still alive in this match! John Robertson: Not by much and Stonebreaker knows that. He picks up d'Artois... Jack Anderson: THOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER BY CHRISTOPHER STONEBREAKER!! Rick Wright: I think the World Champion is going to try and end this match soon. d'Artois is hardly moving... hell, is he even still breathing? Jack Anderson: I don't know how he can be. Stonebreaker took control of this match early and has dominated ever since. John Robertson: Stonebreaker looks tired himself, however he is still in much better position then that of Robert d'Artois right now. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker rolls over for the pin... 1....... 2........ 3!! John Robertson: NO!! Jack Anderson: D'ARTOIS GETS A FOOT ON THE ROPE AT THE LAST SECOND!! Rick Wright: WOW! Unbelievable! Where did d'Artois get the energy to put his foot on the rope? John Robertson: Stonebreaker can't believe it either. He's asking the referee is he's sure that wasn't a three count. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is up and arguing with the referee. He's sure it was... Rick Wright: It wasn't Stone! Get over it. John Robertson: d'Artois is slowly getting up... he comes from behind Stonebreaker! Jack Anderson: LOWBLOW BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Rick Wright: OH!! I hope Stonebreaker isn't planning on having any children... Jack Anderson: What a quick way to try and change the tide of this match. d'Artois needs to try and get in control and he needs to stay in control. John Robertson: Stonebreaker is down and hurting... but so is d'Artois. Jack Anderson: Both men are struggling to their feet. Rick Wright: It looks like Christopher Stonebreaker will get to his feet first, however d'Artois is not far behind him. John Robertson: The Champion gets up... here he comes after the challenger, d'Artois. Jack Anderson: d'Artois is up... it looks like he just grabbed something out of his tights! Rick Wright: Where do you see that? John Robertson: OH!! ROBERT D'ARTOIS JUST NAILED CHRISTOPHER STONEBREAKER WITH A PAIR OF BROSS KNUCKLES!! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker falls to the mat... I think d'Artois knocked him unconscious! Rick Wright: d'Artois isn't far from being unconscious himself. The only reason he's still standing is the fact that he's using the ringpost to help him stay up! Jack Anderson: What a great match we are see here tonight between two of the greatest wrestlers in the IW today. Rick Wright: d'Artois is fighting to stay on his feet. John Robertson: He sits Stonebreaker up... NECK SNAP BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Jack Anderson: Nice looking move on the part of the challenger here at IWF/WOW Summer Explosion III. Rick Wright: d'Artois struggles to his feet again. He's still moving slowly, however he appears to be gaining some energy back as he has more time to rest up. John Robertson: Robert d'Artois lifts Christopher Stonebreaker up. Jack Anderson: He sets him up... John Robertson: DDT BY D'ARTOIS!! Jack Anderson: I think he has him... John Robertson: Robert d'Artois rolls over Stonebreaker and goes for the pinfall... the count! 1....... 2...... KICKOUT BY STONEBREAKER!! Jack Anderson: Ohh! He nearly had him. Rick Wright: If d'Artois had of hooked Stonebreaker's leg, I think he'd be the new IWF/WOW World Heavyweight Champion. John Robertson: Stonebreaker still has some fight left in him. Jack Anderson: But so does d'Artois. John Robertson: Robert d'Artois lifts up Christopher Stonebreaker... Jack Anderson: GUTWRENCH SUPLEX BY D'ARTOIS! Rick Wright: Great move. d'Artois is one of the best technical wrestlers. Jack Anderson: He has to be... with what he has done in his career here in the IWF/WOW, it makes him one of the best athletes in the world today. John Robertson: Robert d'Artois once again picks up Christopher Stonebreaker... looks like he's going for a backbreaker... NO! He turns it into a gutbuster! Jack Anderson: d'Artois is really just trying to cause as much pain as he can right now to the Champion. If he can weaken him enough to the point where Stone can't kick out, d'Artois will become the new World Champion. John Robertson: Wait a second, who is this coming down to the ring now? Jack Anderson: It's Steve West. Rick Wright: What does he want here? John Robertson: Steve West has taken a seat along ringside to watch on. Rick Wright: I guess he just wants to get a close look at the match. Maybe he is scouting for future opponents? Jack Anderson: Who knows. John Robertson: Robert d'Artois continues to go to work on the current World Champion. Rick Wright: I don't think Stonebreaker will be the World Champion for much longer. Jack Anderson: d'Artois has Stonebreaker... RUSSIAN LEGSWEEP BY D'ARTOIS! John Robertson: d'Artois now drops an elbow down onto Stonebreaker. Jack Anderson: NO! Stonebreaker moves out of the way and rolls over to the ropes! Rick Wright: d'Artois better not let Stonebreaker get back in control! John Robertson: d'Artois goes over to the ropes where Christopher Stonebreaker is trying to get up. EUROPEAN UPPERCUT BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS HELPS HE STAY IN CONTROL! Jack Anderson: d'Artois now brings Stonebreaker to the center of the ring... SIDE SUPLEX! Rick Wright: Great move! John Robertson: Robert d'Artois is saying it's all over. He's telling the fans that he's going to put away Stonebreaker once and for all. Jack Anderson: He's yelling that right at Wuzho and Big Dick! John Robertson: d'Artois goes for the cover... 1........ 2........ STONEBREAKER KICKS OUT!! Rick Wright: Robert d'Artois was just seconds away from becoming the IWF/WOW World Heavyweight Champion!! Jack Anderson: If he gets right back to work on Stonebreaker, he could easily become the World Champion. Rick Wright: Come on d'Artois! Don't give Stonebreaker any chance to rest! John Robertson: d'Artois seems to be listening to you Rick, as he picks up Stonebreaker. Rick Wright: You can't blame him for listening to a legend. Jack Anderson: d'Artois has him... GERMAN SUPLEX BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Rick Wright: Another great technical move by Robert d'Artois. Jack Anderson: Robert d'Artois is one of the greatest technical wrestlers in wrestling today. John Robertson: d'Artois to his feet... he helps Stonebreaker up... ONLY TO DRIVE STONEBREAKER BACK DOWN WITH A PILEDRIVER!! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker's head just bounced off the mat. That's not good, could cause some serious damage to Stonebreaker's neck. Rick Wright: d'Artois is out to end the career of Stonebreaker I tell you... this could be the last time you see Stonebreaker in a wrestling ring! Jack Anderson: Robert d'Artois kicks away at Christopher Stonebreaker. John Robertson: He backs him into a corner... HARD CHOP BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Jack Anderson: And again by d'Artois! John Robertson: Stonebreaker falls down in the corner. Rick Wright: HA! It looks like Stonebreaker is begging for mercy at the hands of Robert d'Artois! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is trying to take a swing at d'Artois... he lands it! But it hardly has any effect. Rick Wright: Stonebreaker is out of it... John Robertson: d'Artois picks him up and pulls him to the center of the ring... SNAP SUPLEX BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS! Jack Anderson: Robert d'Artois is now pointing to the top turnbuckle. Rick Wright: WHAT!? What is he doing? He has Stonebreaker almost finished and he's going up to the top? This is insane! John Robertson: d'Artois is climbing to the top... he's setting himself up... Jack Anderson: FLYING HEADBUTT BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS.... John Robertson: MISSES! STONEBREAKER MOVED!! Rick Wright: NO!!! d'Artois may have just blew his big shot at getting the IWF/WOW World Heavyweight title belt! John Robertson: Both men are down and pretty much out... Jack Anderson: They're both trying to get to their feet, without much luck at all. John Robertson: d'Artois is moving a bit quicker then Christopher Stonebreaker. Then again, Robert d'Artois hasn't been beaten for the past five or ten minutes. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker isn't giving up either. He's fighting to get to his feet. Rick Wright: d'Artois is up!! Go Robbie!! Jack Anderson: He goes after Christopher Stonebreaker... John Robertson: STONEBREAKER CATCHES HIM WITH A BOOT TO THE GUT!! FISHERMAN'S SUPLEX BY THE CHAMPION!! THE COUNT.... 1.......... 2.......... 3!!! Jack Anderson: NO!!!! D'ARTOIS KICKED OUT AT THE LAST SECOND!! John Robertson: Stonebreaker caught Robert d'Artois by surprise and he almost made him pay! Rick Wright: Come on Robbie! Don't give up! Jack Anderson: Robert d'Artois rolls over to the corner and tries to get up... Stonebreaker is also up. John Robertson: Christopher Stonebreaker charges the corner... BIG SPLASH IN THE CORNER!!! Jack Anderson: NO!! D'ARTOIS MOVES OUT OF THE WAY!! STONEBREAKER HITS THE CORNER HARD AND FALLS DOWN TO THE MAT! John Robertson: d'Artois covers him! 1......... 2......... STONEBREAKER KICKS OUT!! Rick Wright: NO!! Jack Anderson: Yes! Stonebreaker kicked out at two and three quarters! Rick Wright: Come on d'Artois! Do you realize that the boyhood dream of Robert d'Artois could come to an end here tonight? Jack Anderson: Boyhood dream? Are you sure you're thinking of the right guy? Rick Wright: Of course! John Robertson: d'Artois cannot believe that it wasn't a three count himself. He's questioning the referee about it. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is coming from behind... Rick Wright: Watch out Robbie! John Robertson: D'ARTOIS TURNS AROUND AND TAKES STONEBREAKER DOWN WITH A CLOTHESLINE!! Rick Wright: HAHA! Stonebreaker thought he'd sneak up from behind and attack Robbie, but Robbie was expecting that! John Robertson: d'Artois starts stomping on Stonebreaker, trying to keep him down. Jack Anderson: d'Artois picks him up now... John Robertson: HUGE PILEDRIVER BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS!! Rick Wright: Oh yeah! It's over! Finally, the World Title reign of Christopher Stonebreaker is over! Jack Anderson: Not yet it isn't... John Robertson: d'Artois is making a huge mistake by not going for the pin. Instead he is dragging him to the middle of the ring. Jack Anderson: d'Artois is going for a figure four leglock! Rick Wright: He wants to make Christopher Stonebreaker submit! The make is a genius! John Robertson: HE'S GOT IT LOCKED ON!! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is trying to fight back... but with no luck! Rick Wright: It's all over for Stonebreaker! The fat lady, who just happens to be his wife, is singing over there in the front row! Look at her! HA! John Robertson: Are you sure that's not yours? Rick Wright: Shut up! Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker is struggling... he's trying to take a swing at Robert d'Artois, but can't reach him!! John Robertson: Wait... NOW HE DOES!! HE GRABS D'ARTOIS BY THE HAIR AND TURNS THE HOLD INTO A SMALL PACKAGE!!! STONEBREAKER GOING FOR THE COUNT... 1......... 2......... D'ARTOIS KICKS OUT!! Jack Anderson: OH! I thought Stonebreaker might have had d'Artois due to the surprise factor. Rick Wright: Of course not you idiot. d'Artois is still in control! John Robertson: Well, both men are getting to their feet, and both are very tired after this long and grueling match. Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker and d'Artois are both on their feet in the center of the ring... d'Artois punches Stonebreaker! NO! Stonebreaker blocks it! Stonebreaker fires back with a punch of his own... BLOCKED BY D'ARTOIS! John Robertson: NOW D'ARTOIS KICKS STONEBREAKER DOWN LOW!! Jack Anderson: DDT BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS!! Rick Wright: HE'S GOT IT!! John Robertson: d'Artois spits on Stonebreaker... now he covers him! 1.......... 2........... STONEBREAKER GETS A SHOULDER UP AT THE LAST SECOND!! Jack Anderson: Oh! d'Artois just missed winning the World title! Rick Wright: Well duh! John Robertson: d'Artois is very tired from this match, and barely has enough energy to try and put Stonebreaker away. Jack Anderson: d'Artois to his feet... he picks up Stonebreaker with him. John Robertson: GUTWRENCH SUPLEX BY D'ARTOIS! Rick Wright: Great move by Robbie! Hey, even better then what I could do! John Robertson: d'Artois has a serious look on his face. He will do whatever it takes to come out the winner here tonight. Jack Anderson: d'Artois picks up Stonebreaker and whips him into the ropes... John Robertson: POWERSLAM WITH AUTHORITY BY ROBERT D'ARTOIS!! Rick Wright: Ohh... Stonebreaker will be in a lot of pain tomorrow after this beating! John Robertson: d'Artois once again picks Stonebreaker up... it actually looks like he's going to... WHAT!? Jack Anderson: It looks like d'Artois is going for a powerbomb... Rick Wright: Why would he do that? Besides to cause Stonebreaker more pain? But why doesn't he go for the pin and get it over with? John Robertson: I don't know. d'Artois has him set up.... Jack Anderson: NO!!! BACK BODY DROP BY CHRISTOPHER STONEBREAKER!! Rick Wright: NO!!!!! John Robertson: Stonebreaker may have just avoided the end of this title reign right there... Jack Anderson: Both men are down and trying to get to their feet! John Robertson: On no! Look! Here come two members of the Modern Apocalypse! Vincent Bannister and Hades are coming down and going after Wuzho and Big Dick who are at ringside! Rick Wright: This is gonna get good outside the ring! Wuzho and Big Dick are ready for them! Those four are going at it! John Robertson: In the ring, Stonebreaker is using the ropes to get up... here comes d'Artois after him. STONEBREAKER DUCKS AND BACK BODY DROPS ROBERT D'ARTOIS OVER THE TOP AND TO THE OUTSIDE!! Jack Anderson: NO!! HERE COMES CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS! This cannot be good for Stonebreaker!! Rick Wright: You know the World title will be going around the waist of d'Artois now! John Robertson: The referee is holding back Christopher Stonebreaker as he tried to go out of the ring and go after him... Jack Anderson: WAITAMINUTE!! CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS JUST PICKED UP ROBERT D'ARTOIS AND NAILED HIM WITH THE CHAOTIC DEVASTATION!!! A series of three dragon suplex... but he doesn't hit the third! Rick Wright: What the hell is he doing!? Helping Stonebreaker?! Why!? Jack Anderson: Maybe he wants a shot at Stonebreaker's title!? Christopher Childress hops over the railing and takes off through the crowd! John Robertson: Plus, Wuzho and Big Dick didn't see any of this as they were going at it with Bannister and Hades of the MA! Rick Wright: Where was the rest of the MA!? Watterson? Sanders? Skiles? Jack Anderson: I don't know! John Robertson: Officials are now sending the members of MA and POW back to the locker room... that means Hades, Bannister, Wuzho and Big Dick must all leave the area! Rick Wright: What!? John Robertson: d'Artois is in the ring now! Stonebraker picks him up.. he has him set up! Jack Anderson: STONEBREAKER HITS THE LANDSLIDE!! John Robertson: That move can seriously hurt someone in the neck area... Jack Anderson: Stonebreaker goes for the pinfall... Rick Wright: KICK OUT ROBBIE!! John Robertson: The count.... 1................. 2................ 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jack Anderson: YES!!!!! Rick Wright: NO!!!!! John Robertson: STONEBREAKER WINS!! DING! DING! DING! RA: Here is your winner of the match.... ["A Country Boy Can Survive" by Hank Williams, Jr. plays and the fans pop.] ... and STILL IWF/WOW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION ... C H R I S T O P H E R S T O N E B R E A K E R ! ! ! [The crowd pops as the fireworks go off on each turnbuckle.] -=-=-=-=-=- IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III =-=-=-=-=-= WINNER: Christopher Stonebreaker =-=-=-=-=-= IWF/WOW SUMMER EXPLOSION III -=-=-=-=-=- [As Stonebreaker's name is announced, Childress hops over the guardrail and slides into the ring. He walks over to the ring announcer and takes the microphone away from him. Childress turns to look at Stonebreaker, who holds the I/W World Championship in his hands, bent over and obviously still exhausted from the competition.] "CHAOTIC" CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS: "Hey, cajun. Stand up straight and face the man who just saved your ass from defeat." [Chris looks up, and is obviously perplexed by the appearance of Childress, apparently still unaware of Triple C's actions at ringside.] "CHAOTIC" CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS: "I bet you're wonderin' why I did what I did, aren't you, cajun? [Chris looks around, at d'Artois and company who have started making their way up the aisle toward the locker rooms, and a sudden realization comes over the champ, as he becomes aware of the general happenings in the ring.] "CHAOTIC" CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS: "You're probably askin' yourself, 'Why would Christopher Childress, a man who hates me so much, help me keep this title?'" [Childress grins slightly, as Christopher points a waving finger at Childress, and is heard only by those nearest him, as the crowd pops.] Jack Anderson: Woah!!! Did Chris just say what I think he did? Rick Wright: And why shouldn't he? If he hates the man admit. Jack Anderson: No..I meant the champion.. Folks, be glad you didn't hear that one. "CHAOTIC" CHRISTOPHER CHILDRESS: "I'll tell you why, Stonebreaker. It's because I want you to have that title. At least, until I get my title shot at you. You see, I don't necessarily hate you, cajun. Someone who truly hated the other person wouldn't mind costing them their title, cause we all know that would piss someone off pretty good, don't we?" [Childress nods his head.] "But I have a point to prove against you, Stonebreaker. A point that I never got a chance to prove while we were both on that road to face each other in the NOW. That point, ladies and gentlemen, is that Christopher Childress has more talent than this man standing right in front of me with the belt in his hands." [The crowd _fills_ the arena with boos and Childress simply waits for them to calm down before continuing, as the lumination drops back to normal level from the fireworks display and the smoke begins to clear, and the Rajun Cajun is heard saying a few more terms, albeit a calmer level.] "Yeah, go ahead and scream your lungs out at the better wrestler, I could really give a shit. Fact of the matter, is that that title you got there cajun, is something that I'm here to take away from you. I'll do it quickly, cleanly, and painfully. If you disagree...well, then there's an easy way to settle it and that's in the ring. I've been achin' for nearly half a year to get that rematch with you. If you think I'm about to let it slip through my fingertips, then you'd better think again. So, what's it gonna be, champ? Give me the title shot, cajun, and we'll see who the better wrestler truly is. If I beat you, I prove to all your mindless followers out here that Christopher Childress has the talent to back the talk. And if I lose..." [Childress grins slyly as the crowd pops at the thought.] "Well, let's just say that won't be happening. It's your call, champ." [Childress smirks and then tosses the microphone to Stonebreaker. The crowd cheers wildly as they await what their champion has to say.] Stonebreaker: Childress!! Yeah...you, the man who proved to me and everyone around here that obviously there's a whole floodload of bullshit rolling in here day in and day out. Childress, you come out here, to "help" me keep the title so you can get a shot? [The crowd boos again and Childress leans up against the turnbuckles, nodding slightly.] Stonebreaker: What the hell have you proved around here? [The crowd pops as the cajun starts firing back with verbal assault of his own.] Stonebreaker: You walk in these doors, and you jump me from behind with your buddies. You step in the ring with real men. Real men like Cooper and Wuzho, and what happens? You turn into a goddamn brawler who hasn't been able to do jack shit!!!! [The crowd pops once again, but Childress steps out from the corner and walks up closer to Stonebreaker, pointing his finger at him and yelling something which can be read on his lips as, 'Don't you _dare_ call me a brawler!'] Stonebreaker: Just like in Phoenix, Childress, you tainted a certain belt, and now, right here tonight, you did the exact same thing. And you think you're championship material? [The crowd boos at the thought of Childress being a world champion, but Childress nods his head confidently.] Stonebreaker: Chris, two wrongs sure as hell don't make you right, and it sure as hell don't make you the right man for this gold!! [The crowd erupts as Chris holds up the IWF/WOW World Title, drawing a deafening pop from the crowd.] Stonebreaker: You come down here, to get involved in a match I've been waiting for for a very LONG time, and now..Now, you think you've earned a shot at the gold? You think you're the better man, because you've proven twice that you know how to screw with my career? [Chris waits for a moment, as the crowd pop is mixed, those who are rooting for the cajun, and the people who are booing the thought that Childress might get a shot at the title.] Stonebreaker: Well, Chris, you can go to hell!!! And I'm the goddamn devil!!! So step right up and come get burnt you sunuvabitch!!!! [Childress walks right up to Stonebreaker, staring the cajun down. Both men mouth obscenities to each other from close-range and then Childress dives at Stonebreaker, taking him to the mat with a double-leg takedown and the crowd all rise to their feet, exploding with cheers and jeers. Both men brawl it out on the ground, but Stonebreaker obviously beats him in a punching contest as Childress staggers back off of him. Stonebreaker runs in with a clothesline and takes Childress to the mat! Huge crowd pop!] Jack Anderson: Folks..we're running out of time.. [Childress gets back up to his feet and as Stonebreaker charges him again, Childress ducks the clothesline attempt and grabs Stonebreaker from behind, locking him in with a double chickenwing...which leads into a release tiger suplex, sending Stonebreaker crashing to the mat. Just as he hits it, both Big Dick and Wuzho hit the ring, as do Eric Travers and Damian Steele. All four begin fighting it out as Childress picks Stonebreaker back up, who nails Childress with a kneelift to the midsection. Crowd pop!] Rick Wright: Just when it gets interesting.... Jack Anderson: Folks!! We've got more chaos in the back!!! [Scene changes to back in the locker room where the Modern Apocalypse are arguing.] John Robertson: Looks like the members of the MA are having some problems! Jack Anderson: You can say that again. John Robertson: OH!! VINCENT BANNISTER JUST JUMPED ROBERT D'ARTOIS!! Rick Wright: WHAT IS GOING ON!? Jack Anderson: Bannister is nailing Robert d'Artois with the Collection! He's trying to put an end to the career of Robert d'Artois, just like he tried to do to Christopher Stonebreaker! John Robertson: Now the rest of MA is beating on Robert d'Artois! Skiles, Watterson, and Hades are all pounding on Robert d'Artois! Jack Anderson: But look at Shane Sanders. He's just walking away, extremely pissed off at the events of the night. John Robertson: Vincent Bannister is just standing back and watching as Hades, Watterson and Skiles beat on Robert d'Artois. Rick Wright: What is happening to the MA!? Jack Anderson: Look at that... John Robertson: Hades just stopped for a second and handed some money to Vincent Bannister... what is this!? Jack Anderson: Bannister takes the money and look at it. Rick Wright: I am really confused! John Robertson: VINCENT BANNISTER JUST THREW IT TO THE GROUND! Jack Anderson: He just told Hades that money isn't everything! Rick Wright: Has he been hanging out with Shannon? John Robertson: I cannot believe it! Robert d'Artois lost the match, and then Skiles, Watterson and Hades turned on him in the locker room while Sanders just walked away, and Bannister watched on. Then, it looked like Vincent Bannister turned on MA!? Jack Anderson: I cannot believe this. John Robertson: Folks, we are out of time. WE HAVE TO GO! SO LONG EVERYONE!! [Scene fades from Summer Explosion III with Skiles, Watterson and Hades contining to beat on d'Artois.]
