Date: Sunday 1st Decemebr 2002
Venue: Madison Square Gardens, New York, New York

The show opens up with pyro shooting up throughout the arena in a very spectacular manner, when the pyro dies down we can hear thousands of cheering fans all anxious to see the first ever ZCW pay per view. The camera moves around the crowd showing the faces of several people, all these people look very excited about being here, after showing these fans, the camera then moves around to our commentators for this evening Stephen Harding and Too Extreme Rob Wilson.

Stephen Harding: Hello everyone and welcome to what could be the biggest night in the history of wrestling
Rob Wilson: That’s right Stephen, this night is going to be huge, as we will see four ZCW titles been awarded and we will also see the final of the world title tournament.
Stephen Harding: Sadly though tonight will be the end of an era in ZCW, Sabre and Magenta are stepping down from their roles of President and Vice President to concentrate of their wrestling careers leaving ZCW in the sole charge of Joe Carter.
Rob Wilson: Things just won’t be the same without them
Stephen Harding: Here Here.
Rob Wilson: Anyway that’s enough of the introductions, let’s get down to the action. So let’s go to our Pay Per View Announcer Donald ‘The Duke’ Douglas.

The Duke: Our opening match of the evening is a ladder match for the ZCW Hardcore title, introducing first standing 6 feet 5 inches and weighing in at 265 pounds, from Monaca, Pennsylvania CRIMSON GRIN

Crimson Grin walks to the ring getting cheered as he goes, as he walks along the aisle we can notice that there are two ladders near the ring. Crimson then climbs into the ring. When he gets into the ring he can see that the hardcore belt has already been raised above the ring.

The Duke: And his opponent, he stands 6 feet 4 inches and weighs 247 pounds. From Detroit Michigan. DANE TANDISH

Dane walks to the ring to minimal reaction from the crowd.

Stephen Harding: With the ladder stipulation this match could well turn out to be a classic
Rob Wilson: You’re not wrong there.

Crimson and Dane go to lock up but before they can do so, Sabre’s music hits the speakers, as it does the crowd cheers widely. Crimson and Dane stand down waiting to see what happens, as they do this Sabre’s emerges and stands at the top of the rampway, he is dressed in his wrestling attire and is holding a mic, as the cheers die down he begins to speak.

Sabre: Now as everyone knows all matches booked on ZCW cards are always subject to change, stipulations can be changed, wrestlers can be added to matches and wrestlers can be removed from matches, baring this in mind I have decided to change this match around by added a participant to it. But who is this person going to be, well let me give you a few clues, this man is officially one of the best wrestlers on the face of this planet, and for the last four weeks he’s been dying to get into a ZCW ring. Unfortunately though he is soon to be leaving ZCW so tonight is his last chance to get in that ring, so therefore I thought I’d give him the chance to do so tonight because he more than deserves the opportunity to get in there. Anyway in case you haven’t guessed the identity of that person yet, let me enlighten you. The third person in this match is going to none other than me.

Stephen Harding: Wow Sabre is going to be in the match, now we’ll see what wrestling is all about.

As soon as Sabre stops speaking Dane and Crimson start to begin to trade left and rights, but neither man gets the advantage, as they do this Sabre puts down his mic and quickly runs to the ring, he then slides into the ring, runs over to where Crimson and Dane are and double clotheslines them both to the floor.

Rob Wilson: With the force that Sabre puts behind his clotheslines I’m surprised he didn’t decapitate Crimson and Dane.

Sabre now picks up Dane and hoists him up onto his shoulder, he then climbs onto one of the middle turnbuckles, from here he drops Dane with a second rope Sabredriver.

Stephen Harding: My god what a move, there’s no way Dane’s going to recover from that.

Whilst this has been going on Crimson has got up and has climbed the turnbuckle opposite where Sabre is. Sabre sees him and starts to walk towards him, as he does this Crimson jumps off the turnbuckle and goes for a high cross body block on Sabre. But Sabre catches him.

Rob Wilson: Crimson Grin weighs over 260 pounds but Sabre caught him as though he was a small child, now that’s what I call strength.

Sabre walks towards one of the ropes and uses a fallaway slam to throw Crimson over the top rope to the arena floor. As soon as this move hits Holy Shit chants start throughout the arena. Sabre then gets out of the ring, and goes and fetches one of the ladders, he then walks back to the ring and slides the ladder under the bottom rope into the ring. As he does this Crimson staggers back up onto his feet and walks towards Sabre, but Sabre cuts him with a kick to the gut, he then follows this up with a sabrecrusher, a move which KOes Crimson. Sabre then gets into the ring and sets the ladder up underneath the belt. He then climbs up the ladder but instead off going for the belt he jumps off the ladder and hits a Helldriver Moonsault on Dane. Immediately more Holy Shit chants start up.

Rob Wilson: Now that was extreme, a 300 pound man hitting a moonsault off the top of the ladder.
Stephen Harding: Intense.

Sabre now climbs back up the ladder, this time he grabs the belt and falls to the mat holding it.

The Duke: Here is your winner and new ZCW Hardcore Champion SABRE.

Rob Wilson: Wow Sabre did it, he has become the first ever ZCW hardcore champion.

Stephen Harding: And what a performance to win the belt, he totally destroyed two world class competitors in no time at all.
Rob Wilson: That’s why he’s the best

Sabre get to the feet and holds the hardcore title belt above his head, the crowd cheer very loudly as he does so, almost enough to raise the roof. Sabre then goes to the back to much acclaim from the crowd. A few officials then get in the ring and help Dane and Crimson to the back as a few ring crew guys get the ring ready for the next match.

Rob Wilson: What a performance from Sabre, all the other guys will have there work cut out if they want to beat that.
Stephen Harding: Well the next match is a four man elimination match for the hardcore title between Patrice, Ripper, Darkwing and The Dark Mage. Let’s go the ring to see what they can do.

The Duke: The following match is a four man elimination match for the ZCW Television Title, introducing first, standing 5 feet 10 inches and weighing 195 pounds. From Woonsocket, Rhode Island THE DARK MAGE

The lights in the arena go out as "The Heretic Anthem" by Slipknot strikes the arena speakers. A fairly small figure steps out onto the top of the rampway. Fire then blasts down both sides of the ramp simultaneously. The Dark Mage slowly walks down the ring as the fans erupt in boos. He then slides into the ring.

The Duke: His first opponent stands 6 feet 2 inches and weighs 244 pounds from Inglewood California DARKWING

The lights go out, showing the words "In the Darkness, there is no mercy" on the Zenithtron. The lights come back on, and Darkwing's music hits, and he walks to the top of the stage, and throws his right fist into the air, and a gigantic explosion goes off behind him. He then walks down to the ring and goes to a corner and throws his fist up again.

The Duke: The next opponent will be accompanied to the ring by Sylvia and Emmanuelle, he stands 6 feet 5 inches and weighs 246 pounds. From Lille France Patrice Morivan.

Patrice’s two beauty therapists Sylvia and Emmanuelle emerge from behind the ring curtain both holding full length mirrors, a few seconds later Patrice emerges and the crowd starts to boo. Patrice looks in one of the mirrors and makes sure that his hair looks okay, he then does a few poses showing off his well-defined body and impressing all the ladies in the audience. The three people then make their way slowly down to the ring. Along the way Patrice taunts the crowd and gets more boos for doing so. Patrice then gets in the ring and waits for his opponent.

The Duke: Introducing the final participant in the match, standing 6 feet 6 inches, and weighing in at 250 pounds. From Ironstone Ireland RIPPER

Ripper enters the arena to the cheers of the crowd he then walks to the ring and gets in.

Rob Wilson: This one is certainly going to live up to the name of the pay per view.
Stephen Harding: You’ve got it spot on there Rob, with four top notch fighting tooth and nail for the TV belt how could it be anything but.

The bell rings and the match is underway. Immediately the four men split up into pairs to start fighting one on one. Ripper goes up against Darkwing and Patrice and The Dark Mage are battling it out, throwing some pretty heavy punches towards each other. Using his size advantage Patrice quickly gets the advantage against Dark Mage, he uses this advantage to grab Dark Mage and put him in a front facelock, from here he takes Dark Mage over with a snap suplex, he then sets about stomping on Dark Mage several times, in the mean time Darkwing and Ripper are still trading punches. They keep this up until Darkwing varies his attack by hitting Ripper in the midsection with a knee. Darkwing then grabs Ripper and body slams him to the mat. Ripper gets straight back up but immediately he is back down again as Darkwing superkicks him to the face.

Stephen Harding: Patrice and Darkwing have the match going there way so far, but it is still way too early to know what the result is going to be.

Patrice now picks The Dark Mage back up to his feet, and Irish whips him to the ropes, The Dark Mage rebounds right into a big boot from Patrice. Patrice then runs to the ropes, bounces off them and hits Dark Mage with a 747 splash. He holds on for the pin, and Caspian Hand makes the count

Stephen Harding: We were almost down to three there.
Rob Wilson: No way Dark Mage will require a lot more wearing down than that.

Darkwing now picks Ripper up and Irish Whips him to one of the corners, Darkwing then runs at Ripper and goes for a stinger splash, but Ripper moves out of the way and Darkwing’s head hits the top turnbuckle. Darkwing looks stunned after that and this allows Ripper to hit a german suplex. Ripper bridges back for the pin

Patrice now picks up The Dark Mage and goes for a powerbomb, but as he is lifting Dark Mage up, Dark Mage wriggles free of his grasp and hits a drop kick, this makes Patrice fall to the mat.

The Duke: The Dark Mage has been eliminated.

Stephen Harding: That’s one man down, but it’s only thanks to outside interference.
Rob Wilson: It’s all fair in love and war and the quest for the ZCW Television Title.

Darkwing now manages to shrug Ripper off to escape the spinning toe hold, he then gets to his feet but is limping slightly from the effects of the hold. Ripper immediately senses blood and charges in at Darkwing, but Darkwing sidesteps him and in one swift motion grabs Ripper from behind and takes him down with a sleeping neckbreaker. Patrice now charges at Darkwing, but Darkwing cuts him off by taking him over with a powerslam. He then picks Patrice back up and goes to set him up on his shoulder, but Ripper sneaks up behind him and hits a diamond cutter. He then goes for a pin on Darkwing. As he does this Patrice holds Darkwing’s legs down to stop him from kicking out

Stephen Harding: Next up we have a match between two tag team partners for the Intercontinental Title

Rob Wilson: I don’t know it might have been fun to see some friction between them, because you can’t beat a good feud between former friends
Stephen Harding: Don’t be so sick Rob, anyway that match is over let’s go on to the main event to determine the first ever ZCW world champion, this one is going to be epic with probably the two biggest stars in ZCW battling it out for the gold.

But before The Duke can make the introductions, Sabre’s music hits the speakers, the crowd cheer as Sabre emerges wearing his ZCW hardcore belt. Sabre also a mic with him and he begins to speak.

Sabre: Before the main event can begin I have a couple of announcements to make, now these will be last announcements as ZCW president, but they are pretty important so they have to be said before I depart. The first announcements regards my status after steeping down as ZCW President, as everyone knows I’m stepping down to concentrate on my wrestling career, however that career won’t be in ZCW, so therefore I am vacating this ZCW hardcore making this belt once again vacant.

Stephen Harding: That’s a shame I would have loved to see Sabre compete here full time
Rob Wilson: Unfortunately it can’t happen as he’s committed elsewhere

Sabre: Now my second announcement regards the main event for the evening. Unfortunately Bobby D won’t be able to compete tonight as his plane was delayed and he couldn’t get alternative transport, therefore we will need a replacement in this match as I am not just handing Slayer the title, and I think that the only person who can really lay claim to this spot is the man Bobby D beat last week so therefore Slayer will be fighting Smash for the world title.

Sabre then goes to the back to more cheers from the crowd

Stephen Harding: Smash hasn’t got a chance he’s just had a match and he'll still be tired
Rob Wilson: Yes he’ll be at a significant disadvantage.
Stephen Harding: I’m sure he’ll give it his best though, and as Sabre said he is probably the only man who can qualify to face Slayer this week, okay enough of the talk let’s hand over to The Duke

As soon as Smash enters the ring Slayer grabs him and connects with a side suplex.

Stephen Harding: Hey that was a cheap shot before the bell
Rob Wilson: And?
Stephen Harding: Well in a match of this magnitude he should give his opponent a chance to get ready
Rob Wilson: No he shouldn’t he should do whatever it takes to win.
