KENNEL OF ULIMITED BRUTALITY
REAPER
TOMMY POLO
BIG SHOW
Schultz: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following is the Triple Threat kennel of Unlimited Brutality match! As Maria addresses the fans, the inner cell lowers from the ceiling betwixt the flickering red and green hued lights. Dawe: Teddy, this match goes beyond anything I think I�ve ever commentated on before. I don�t know what these guys are gonna do in there. Speaks: Certainly a new match type introduced here by Reaper under the watchful eye of General Manager Shane Powers, who granted Reaper his choice of stipulation. Dawe: I�m still not so sure whether this match should happen. I mean, Reaper won the battle Royal, why does he have to defend his win? Speaks: Well certainly I can�t answer that one for sure. But I can imagine how annoyed he was at the poor turn out for the event. The interesting thing is, Maria still announced the match as a Triple Threat kennel of Unlimited Brutality, despite the fact the dogs are out and Reaper changed the match type to Inferno. Schultz: The stipulations of this match state that if Reaper loses, he must face the man who beats him next week and defend his 3rd spot at No Mercy. As Schultz finishes her sentence, the outer cell begins to lower. Schultz: At this time� Schultz is about to introduce the guest referee, when �Here Comes The Money� hits, and Shane Powers appears at the top of the ramp, mic in hand. Powers: I guess a lot of you are wondering just what the hell this match is going to be. One minute there are dogs, next there aren�t, one minute it�s two cells, next its inferno. So I took it upon myself to decide what match you will be having. This match will encompass all you requested. There are two cells, as you can see. The top cell is surrounded at the top by a thick protective wall, to stop you escaping that way, lest you break through it. Victory is simple to attain. Simply make both your opponents bleed, and have them knocked out for a ten count. THEN make your escape from the cage. Now, I know all you pyromaniacs might be disappointed with the match type. So, to make it more interesting, at some point during the match, the cell barrier will be set alight. That is all from your General Manager, Shane Powers. Please, enjoy the show. Powers leaves, and Shultz starts her sentence again. Schultz: Ladies and Gentlemen, at this time may I introduce to you the Special Guest Referee for this contest, Hitman! �Fire� by Busta Rhymes hits, and Hitman walks steadily through the curtain, soaking up the crowd reaction. Speaks: It�s certainly been a long time since we saw Hitman in the ring, tonight is looking very special indeed. Dawe: Hitman to me is like Virus to Corpse-nothing. Speaks: Well, that�s your opinion. Though I fail to see how Corpse would call Virus a nothing while he holds the Undisputed Title� Dawe: Talk to the hand. Hitman walks through the outer gate, and into the confines between the two cells. For a moment, Hitman looks upwards, wondering whether he will have to scale the cell whilst officiating. Dawe: Hey-you don�t think he�s scared of heights do you? Speaks: I guess it�s possible. Hitman enters through the inner door and rolls into the center of the ring. Schultz: Introducing first, from Tampa Florida, The Big Show! Big Show's music hits, and a huge guillotine like pyro effect engulfs the entrance stage momentarily. Through the artificial lightening of the pyro, Big Show emerges. Show is not received well at all by the fans, who jeer and boo the Giant who towers over them all-Show however looks totally focused and unconcerned, walking with conviction towards the ring. Show weaves between the doors of the cells and steps with ease over the top rope. Show raises his hand slowly up in the air, and as his hand reaches a certain height, a curtain of pyro swathes the ring. Schultz: And introducing next, from Washington DC, Tommy Polo! Holla If Ya Hear Me by 2Pac begins to play and Polo comes out to the stage to a band of boo's from the crowd. He ignores the people and flexes on stage. He begins to walk down the ramp and as he walks, pyro explodes behind him on each side of the ramp. Polo walks fearlessly into the ring area, barging the two doors open on his way. He slides into the ring, climbs a corner and flexes to the crowd. Explosions happen on the other corners as Polo is taunting the crowd. He hops down and stands in the center of the ring. He drops down to his knees and poses for pictures as the lights flicker red and black. Polo gets to his feet and wipes his head, then snaps his head to one side and glares at Big Show. Polo flexes some more and Show looks determined and unphased. Schultz: And finally, from Manchester England, the Hardcore Legend, Reaper! The screen goes blank and the image of the nWo logo appears, then the nWo No way Out image appears. Chop Suey plays as the crowd start chanting HaRdCoRe Disorder. The arena becomes a mosh pit as Reaper appears on top of the ramp with a greyish trench coat type thing on. He raises his right arm with an open palm facing the roof, then throws it down violently. Fireworks go off behind him and Maelstr�m appears as Reaper walks down the ramp. He ignores the crowd on the way down, instead gazing with a smile at the cage he has created. He climbs into the ring. He holds the middle rope down for Maelstr�m and Maelstr�m climbs in. He makes sure his mask is on proper and then kneels before Maelstr�m. When he arises he removes the coat and hands it to a stage hand and helps Maelstr�m exit the ring. Speaks: Well, now introductions are over, lets get to some action! Hitman calls for the bell and the three combatants look around at eachother. Show is the first to break eye contact, looking up at the cell ceiling. Reaper seizes the initiative and lunges at Show, barraging him with forearms. Polo walks to the opposite side of the ring and lies on the turnbuckle. Speaks: Certainly a cocky air about Polo tonight. Dawe: I love it! Reaper and Show exchange blows but Show is too strong for Reaper and whips him to the ropes. Reaper comes off, but Show sees Polo and walks over towards him. Reaper hits the far rope and stops himself. Show grabs Polo on the turnbuckle, clasping his right hand around Polo�s throat, and tosses him onto the outside. Polo hits the inner cell wall and bounces onto the floor. Reaper runs behind Show and leaps onto his back, attaching his arms around Show�s throat with a sleeper hold and grapevining his legs around Show�s stomach. Show clutches at the ropes, and uses all his strength to lunge over the top rope, sending himself and Reaper to the outside. Polo gets to his feet and watches as Reaper and Show crash to the floor. Polo puts the boots to Reaper and looks under the ring for something. Polo emerges with an iron bar, and looks sadistically towards Reaper. Polo doesn�t wait for Reaper to rise, but just smashes the iron bar right over Reapers head while it lay on the protective mat. Reaper�s legs spasm for a moment, and he suddenly becomes limp. Speaks: Oh no, that could have fractured his skull, he could be paralysed-he could be dead! Dawe: Well he did ask for it! Polo grasps Reaper by the back of his head and picks him up, leaning him against the cage wall. Reaper�s face is hidden by hair and the leather mask he wears but a sea of claret red blood starts to flow between the cracks and Polo simply slaps Reaper across the face. Reaper doesn�t fall, but remains propped unconscious against the inner cell wall. Polo walks towards Show, who is regaining his footing. Polo grabs Show and tries to turn him around, but Show scouts him and whips him into the cell wall. Show immediately follows up and runs towards Polo with a big boot. At the last moment, Polo ducks out of the way, but Show�s momentum forces him forwards and his foot goes straight through the cage wall. Show yells out in anger but can�t free himself. Dawe: Genius! Polo has already incapacitated both his opponents! Polo walks back to where Reaper is still propped and grabs his iron bar again. Polo walks back to Show, and smashes the back of Show�s knee with the bar. Show yells in agony and falls back, so that his foot stuck in the cage is supporting his whole body. Polo viciously starts kicking at Show and tosses the iron bar away. Polo grabs Show�s trapped foot and pulls it out of the hole. Polo rolls Show into the ring and starts torturing Show�s knee joint, putting his foot on the second rope and dropping repeated knees and feet to his knee. Reaper starts stirring, and feels the warmth of his own blood flowing over his masked face. Reaper yells angrily and rolls into the ring. Polo is surprised, and Reaper backs him into a turnbuckle, before pummelling him with repeated right hand shots until Polo drops to his knees. Reaper backs out of the corner and Polo slumps forwards. Reaper looks at Show and Polo, then suddenly reaches into his trousers, pulling out Mr. Socko. Dawe: Socko lives! Speaks: Like a phoenix quite literally from the flame, through hell and high water, Socko has risen again! Reaper and Socko bait Polo and as he rises to his feet, Reaper locks in the mandible claw. Polo yells inaudibly through the sock and low blows Reaper to relinquish the hold. Behind Polo, Show hobbles to his feet and smashes Polo with a forearm shot to the back of his neck. Show walks around Polo and picks him up with one arm, before throwing him angrily over the top rope. Speaks: I think Show feels humiliated by what happened to his foot earlier. Polo might have unleashed a demon here. Dawe: You know what they say, nothing more dangerous than an angry giant! Show leads Polo to the hole in the cell, and smashes him into the wall. Show starts asking Polo if he thought what happened was funny. Show: I�ll show you funny. Show puts his hands on either side of the inside of the hole left by his foot, and starts tearing the cell wall. Dawe: My God he�s ripping the cell apart! Speaks: So much for using the door! Show grabs Polo and throws him through the hole he has created. Polo rolls through the hole and the momentum sends him crashing into the outer cell wall. Speaks: Well I don�t think Show will be ripping that wall apart. He�s going to have to think of something else if he wants to escape that one. Referee Hitman is checking on Reaper, and Reaper angrily elbows him in the face, sending Hitman reeling back. Reaper rolls out of the ring and starts punching Show. Reaper pushes Show through his hole and follows him through. Dawe: Well we knew this would happen, but the anticipation was not that it would go this way. Speaks: It�s just as well there are no dogs out there. Reaper rams Show�s head into the cage wall and Polo rolls out of the way. Polo gets to his feet and starts climbing the cell wall. Reaper looks to Polo climbing and grins with pleasure. Reaper forgets Show and follows suit, climbing in his wake. Show starts to recover, and realises his head is busted open from the cage wall. Speaks: Looks like Polo has the advantage so far here, being the only one not busted open, he isn�t applicable for a ten count yet. Show looks up and sees both Reaper and Polo have reached the top of the inner cell, and slowly begins to climb in pursuit. Polo rushes across to Reaper and tries to kick him in the face, but Reaper dodges him. Reaper walks to the center of the cell and challenges Polo over. Polo walks slowly over and the two start exchanging blows. Reaper gets the upper hand, and hits a piledriver. Show reaches the top, and Reaper starts beckoning him over. Show walks slowly across, unsure if the ceiling can hold his weight. Reaper tires of waiting and rushes across, but Show hits a big boot that knocks Reaper down. Show looks up, and realises he can reach the upper cell ceiling. Show grabs the ceiling, and starts to pull down with all his strength. Somehow, Show creates a hole just big enough for someone to fit through. Speaks: It�s all very well him making the hole, but how is someone his size and weight ever going to pull himself through it? Polo rises to his feet, and has been busted open by the piledriver on the steel. Reaper somehow low blows Show, and Show doubles over. Polo seizes his chance and uses Show�s back to gain height and climb to the top cell. Referee Hitman begins scaling the first cell, sensing that the finish will no longer occur in the ring. Reaper gets to his feet, and DDT�s Show. Reaper looks up to Polo, but can�t reach. Reaper tries to jump and grab the ceiling, but cannot. Show gets up, and Reaper runs to meet him. Show has Reaper scouted and lifts him up for a military press. Reaper seizes the opportunity and grabs the cell ceiling, and pulls himself through the hole in the ceiling. Show yells in anger and starts struggling with his own weight to pull himself up. Polo sees Reaper and scoop slams him on the ceiling. Polo grabs Reaper by the hair and throws him into the boundary surrounding the top of the cell, stopping anyone from climbing down to escape. Reaper bounces off the wall and it offers no give whatsoever. Dawe: Looks like it�s the door or nothing! Meanwhile, Show somehow manages to pull himself up, and heads for Polo. Referee Hitman uses his agility to leap up and pull himself through the hole in the ceiling. Polo turns and sees Show, and looks quite shocked. Polo and Show start exchanging blows but neither man looks like relenting. Behind both men, Reaper gets to his feet. Reaper clotheslines the back of Show�s head, and Show falls to his knees. Polo and Reaper eyeball eachother over Show�s head and start teaming to beat down Show, hitting punches and kicks to the giant. Show is beaten down and Reaper lunges for Polo. Polo ducks, and the two start brawling dangerously close to the hole in the ceiling. Referee Hitman tries to pull Reaper back to avoid him going nearer to the hole, but Reaper turns and knocks him down with a right hand. Speaks: What is Reaper thinking attacking the Referee?! Dawe: What was the referee doing interfering like that? Reaper and Polo start brawling again, and Hitman gets to his feet. Hitman grabs Reaper�s shoulder and spins him around. Hitman goes to hit a Sniper Shot on Reaper, but Reaper ducks. Hitman�s momentum makes him follow through with the move, and Hitman smashes Polo in the face. Polo falls backwards stiffly, like a wooden board, and falls through the hole in the ceiling. Polo�s momentum and weight mean as soon as he hits the inner cell ceiling, the roof is forced open and Polo continues falling through to the mat. As polo hits the mat, referee Hitman holds his head in despair. Dawe: Why is it wherever Reaper goes a cage breaks? Speaks: How can you joke? Polo could be dead! Reaper grins and laughs at Hitman. Reaper grabs Show by the back of his head, and leads him to the cell barrier. Reaper starts smashing Show�s head into the barrier, but Show is unaffected and becomes angry. Show grabs Reaper by the back of his shirt and throws him into the barrier. The barrier cracks and looks like it could be broken open easily. Show grins and starts picking Reaper up again. Reaper looks woozy, and Show takes a step back, and headbutts Reaper, knocking him back onto the ceiling. Show raises Reaper by the throat with his right hand, and lifts him over his head for a showstopper. Dawe: He�ll kill them both! Reaper realises the situation he�s in, and starts struggling over Show�s head. Show drops Reaper, and Reaper trips Show. Show falls forwards awkwardly and the crack becomes a hole as Show�s head meets it. Reaper tries to lift Show, but Show appears to be knocked out. Reaper grins, and looks down at Polo, who is still out cold from the fall. Reaper shrugs at Hitman, and Hitman starts to count both men. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10! Dawe: Both men have been counted out, that means all Reaper has to do is escape and he�s won the match! Speaks: You make that sound so easy-how exactly is he going to escape from up there? Polo�s fall has made it impossible to climb down! Dawe: You�re right! The only way down is through the barrier! Speaks: Good God almighty how is this going to end?! Reaper looks around and the realisation hits him. Reaper looks towards Show, and starts to kick away at the damaged barrier. Show stirs beneath him and the wall opens up making a hole just big enough for Reaper to fit through. Reaper starts to try and climb down, but Show grabs him by the back of his trousers and pulls him back through the hole. In the ring, Polo stirs and rolls out of the ring. Polo heads slowly towards the outer door, and starts kicking at it to break the hinges. Dawe: What�s he thinking? Speaks: Well, he can�t win by escaping, since the other two aren�t knocked out. Dawe: I just realised, the only way for Polo to reach the tope is by climbing from the outside now. Speaks: Good God, you�re right. Reaper goes to strike Show, but Show angrily clotheslines him. Show raises Reaper back to his feet and tosses him across to the other side of the ceiling. Polo kicks the door through, and starts climbing up the outer cell wall, towards the hole in the barrier. Big Show cannot see Polo through the barrier, and walks back towards the hole. Show starts to move head first through the hole, and comes face to face with Polo. Half hanging out of the hole, Show can�t use his hands to block Polo. Polo strikes Show with a couple of right hands, and wraps his arm around Show�s neck, choking the giant. Reaper looks across the ceiling and sees Show half hanging out of the cell, and walks across the cell. Reaper grabs Show�s ankles and uses all his strength to throw Show�s feet over the ceiling. Show falls off the cell, and without enough time to react, Polo still hangs onto Show�s neck. As Show falls, Polo is ripped from the cell as well, and both men smash through the announce table looking like they are in a suplex position. Polo lets go of Show and literally bounces into the crowd, crushing several fans. Referee Hitman again begins to count to ten. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10! Speaks: Both men are out, and now all Reaper has to do is climb to the outside. Reaper climbs with trepidation through the hole, and suddenly an explosion rocks the arena. As the noise subsides, the corners of the cell barriers are all alight with fire, and the fire is spreading with a fair pace around the roof. Reaper looks surprised and pushes himself out of the hole just before the flames meet the section he is climbing through. Reaper slowly descends to the floor and looks up at the inferno above him. Reaper�s feet hit the floor and the bell rings. Schultz: Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner, and still going to No Mercy as joint Number One contender, Reaper! Dawe: He did it! Speaks: What a match that was. I hope Show and Polo are ok, especially Polo, who fell twice from the top cell. Dawe: Wait, that�s the first time in memory that Reaper finished a match and won without using Slater at all, and Socko survived! Reaper leans against the side of the cell, and the entire nWo come to ringside and help him backstage. A concerned Tyson Tomko rushes to the ringside area and leaps over the guardrail to check on Polo. Amazingly, Polo is able to stand, and Tomko helps him backstage. Big Show is attended to by EMT�s and Triple D speaks to him with encouragement. The crowd chant with appreciation for the match: JWA:EWA!!!!! JWA:EWA!!!! JWA:EWA!!!! JWA:EWA!!!! Speaks: Folks, we have seen an incredible display from all these men tonight. See you next time on Action Zone. Dawe: Isn�t it No Mercy next week? Speaks: Who knows. Dawe: Well, Big Show needn�t feel down, he still has his tag title shot with Triple D at No Mercy. As for Polo� Speaks: As long as Polo is breathing, he�ll compete at No Mercy. Dawe: I have a feeling he might have some words for Hitman. Speaks: Well, this was Action Zone. See you all next time. The show fades out with the image of Big Show being stretchered out with the monolithical cage in the background.
