versus

"Paddy Punch" The Hobo and Enigma w/MWF General Manager Dom Stoate

Singles Match

Referee: Chris Forrest

Writer: Stefan Mallais

JP: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back!

Sully: I don't know why you're welcoming anyone back, John. You know damn well they'll be changing the channel in about 25 seconds anyway!

JP: Now why would they want to do that?

Sully: Why the hell would they want to stick around to watch the likes of Troy Knight?!?!

JP: Have you got your head screwed on right? Troy is one of the premiere wrestlers not only in the MwF, but quite possibly globally!

Sully: The guy's a freaking homosexual!

JP: What does his sexual orientation have to do with his in ring abilities? How many damned times are we going to have to go through this!?

Sully: Until it sinks into that fat head of yours, Troy Knight should be banned from all happenings MwF!

JP: Please!

Peter Santos: Ladies and gentlemen, the following tag team match is scheduled for one fall. Making their way to the ring first, being accompanied to the ring by the General Manager of the MwF, Dom Stoate. At a combined weight of 443 pounds, Enigma and The Hobo, Bad Medicine!

["Youth of the Nation" by POD hits throughout the arena and the sight of The Hobo and Enigma is soon followed. The duo appear from behind the curtain and begin making their way to the ring, After only a few short steps the GM of the MwF follows the tag team and is showered in jeers. The three men pay no attention to the roaring crowd and casually head into the ring. Peter Santos continues.]

Peter Santos: Making his way to the ring next, weighing in at 6'0", 220 lbs, Sean Harley!

[As cued "Last Man Standing" by Biohazard hits and out walks Sean Harley with an arrogant smirk about it as usual. He is greeted with a significant amount of jeers, but nowhere near the reception of his opponents. Sean Harley walks down the ramp and stops on the outside, as The Hobo and Enigma make their way to the ropes to greet Sean. As the three men exchange words Peter Santos is heard once again. ]

Peter Santos: And finally, making his way to the ring, being accompanied to the ring by Tonya, weighing in at 6'2", 220 lbs, Troy Knight!

[As he is introduced "Larger Than Life" by the Backstreet Boys hits and a roar is emitted by the capacity crowd, heightened only by the sights of TroyBoy himself. Troy steps out onto the stage and pauses for a moment with a posh smile on his face. He then turns and opens his arms to the curtains, introducing for the first time, Tonya. The beautiful blonde valet appears full of vitality and youth and sends the crowd into a significantly louder frenzy. Troy nods to the young lady almost as if proving a point.]

Sully: Give it up for Troy Knight! I've never been so glad to see this guy!

JP: What the hell are you talking about? You just finished saying how much you hate him!

Sully: I do, with ever bone in my body, but if I get to see her when Troy decides to show his ugly mug, then by all means, more Troy!

JP: Pathetic, simply pathetic.

[Troy Knight and Tonya make their way down the ramp towards the ring. Sean Harley turns his head and gives Troy Knight a dirty look, but Troy is too preoccupied with the reaction from the crowd to Tonya. Sean then shakes his head and slides into the ring forcing The Hobo and Enigma to take a step back. Sean takes a step forward taunting the two, who are only provoked but stopped by the intervening referee. Troy makes his way to the ring steps and walks up onto the ring apron pointing to the side of the ring where Tonya then positions herself.]

JP: Here we go folks the team of Sean Harley and Troy Knight come together for the first time here tonight, and I've got to say, I'm not getting the impression that either man is very impressed.

Sully: They're going to have their hands full as they face off against GM Stoate's team of The Hobo and Enigma. Here we go, Sean Harley wasting no time.

[Before the bell even sounds, Sean Harley charges full force towards Enigma connecting his forearm with Enigma's jaw. Enigma bounces off the mat and back to his feet only to be forced a few steps back by the strong right hands of The Phoenix. As the ref signals for Sean to stop using a closed fist Troy and The Hobo take the appropriate positions in their respective corners. At this time, with referee Chad Forrest still yelling at Sean, Enigma has been forced to the ropes. In one swift motion Sean switches from hard right hands and momentarily grabs hold of Enigma only to throw him in the opposite direction. Sean then follows in the direction of Enigma and stops in the center of the ring. As Enigma bounces off the ropes, back towards Harley, Sean jumps into the air and levels Enigma with beautiful standing dropkick.]

Sully: Harley starting things of with a very stylish standing dropkick.

JP: I've always thought that this kid could be one of the MwF's elite if only he had a little guidance. He's like a loose cannon!

Sully: One that damn near tore a hole right through Enigma's chest with that dropkick!

[Harley is quick to his feet as Enigma twists in pain. Harley moves over to the downed Enigma and grabs firm hold of his head, pulling him to his feet. As Harley moves away from the corner where The Hobo is standing, his arm extended for the tag. Harley raises his arm into the air and perches The Hobo before he looks back at Troy and shakes his head in disgust. Harley then locks up with Enigma and almost effortlessly lifts him into the air and pauses during his vertical suplex. As this is happening you can see a confused Tonya being explained the situation by Troy. Engima is sent crashing down to the mat hard, and The Hobo winces along side the noise that followed the move. ]

JP: Don't tell me Harley is going to try and do this on his own!

Sully: The Phoenix doesn't need the likes of Troy! He's better off not asking for his help, besides, Sean is in complete control.

JP: Don't be so quick with your tongue there Sullivan!

[As Sean takes a moment to boast to the crowd as he does, Enigma slowly inches to the corner. The Hobo reaches over the ropes and makes the blind tag so that he may enter the match. The Hobo quickly hops into the ring and runs towards Sean, whose back is turned. The Hobo tackles Sean to the ground and proceeds to pummel the back of Phoenix's head. After a number of alternating punches, The Hobo decides that's enough and gets off of Sean, stepping on his back as he does. Sean unleashes a scream of pain as The Hobo drives his heel into the spine of Harley.]

JP: It never ceases to amaze me; these matches are like the tides of the sea, ever-changing!

Sully: Easy there Shakespeare! It's just a minor setback!

[Enigma has managed to get to his feet in his corner but is propped up against the top rope catching his breathe. Troy is still itching for his first piece of action but things aren't looking very bright for that idea. The Hobo has brought Harley semi to his feet, in control of his neck. The Hobo then quickly forces Harley back down with a snapmare, which is in turn followed by a quick dropkick to the back of Harley. Sean screams in pain and The Hobo can be seen chuckling to himself. The Hobo once again grabs hold of Sean and this time drags him to the corner where he is then tagged by Enigma.]

JP: Quick tag here by The Hobo trying to wear down Sean Harley.

Sully: I'm sure that Harley is just buying his time. I mean, it's not his fault he's in a handicap match, he's got to improvise.

JP: Handicap match? Harley has arguably the best wrestler in the MwF in his corner!

Sully: Might as well be a handicap match!

[The Hobo pulls back the arms of Sean as Enigma jumps into the ring and charges at the opposing ropes. As Enigma nears Sean, his partner quickly releases his grip and Enigma delivers a perfectly executed spear into the gut of Sean Harley, who drops onto all fours gasping for air. Enigma quickly steps over Sean and with one hop, lands on the top rope. The Hobo cheers him on as Enigma quickly jumps into the air and connects with 360 leg drop, guillotining the back of The Phoenix's neck. Harley drops onto his stomach and Enigma rolls off of him. Enigma glares over to Troy Knight and smiles arrogantly as he pulls Sean to his feet and isolates him in the corner.]

JP: The Hobo and Enigma are looking phenomenal here tonight Sully! Their teamwork is impeccable.

Sully: A rare from indeed for this pair. And as much as I hate to admit it, Sean is looking like he is in some serious need of a tag.

[As Enigma props Sean into the corner, he quickly leaves him there and turns to Troy. Enigma starts calling on Troy from the middle of the ring and as Troy reacts quickly, trying to get into the ring, Chad Forrest pounces on him, preventing him from leaving the corner. The Hobo has taken this chance and has dropped from the apron to the outside. The Hobo moves over to the time keepers table and reaches down, grabbing an orange wire. The Hobo tugs and pulls on this wire as he moves back towards the ring showing obvious frustration as it stays stuck on unknown object along the way. The Hobo then moves behind Sean Harley and wraps the cable around his neck, pulling tightly soon thereafter. The Hobo then leans back, nearly falling off the apron, in an attempt to choke the life out of the Phoenix, whose legs are no longer touching the mat, but flaring wildly.]

Sully: Damn it Forrest turn around! Stop that bum!

JP: Dear lord, if this goes on for much longer Sean might just pass out, look at the color of his face!

[As Harley winces his face, now a beaming red, The Hobo grimaces in rage as well. Troy Knight realises that the only way Chad Forrest will leave him alone is to exit the ring, and therefore does so. Realising that Chad is on the verge of turning around; The Hobo quickly unwraps the cable from around Sean's neck and tosses it aside. The Phoenix drops from the corner in a lifeless mass, holding his neck in pain. Enigma turns around and moves back towards Harley and pulls him to his feet. Sean can barely stand under his own will at this point and as Enigma places Sean's head under his arm, there is no form of resistance visible. Enigma then jerks himself backwards bringing Harley's head down onto the mat hard with a massive DDT.]

Sully: This simply isn't fair! Two on one!

JP: Well if Sean wasn't so full of himself and tagged in Troy things might be looking very different right now!

[Sean's face is glued to the mat and as he is flipped over by Enigma we see that the bridge of his nose is lacerated and now seeping blood. Enigma hooks both legs and Chad quickly drops � 1 � 2 � no! Troy comes quickly running in and breaks the pin with a hard boot to the back of Enigma's head. This in turn triggers The Hobo to come running from his corner. The Hobo collides with Troy and pushes him back into the corner. The two are just wailing on each other and Chad Forrest is quick to try and pry the two apart. As Chad fights with The Hobo and Troy to separate, Enigma plans on continuing his work on Sean. He drags the lifeless and bloodied Sean to his feet and then out of the blue powerfully irish whips Sean into the corner. Sean is sent full speed right into his own corner and connects with the three turnbuckles very hard. The momentum whiplashes Sean to the mat and Enigma then moves towards him again.]

Sully: Sean is taking a beating here tonight, but his resilience has got to be commended!

JP: What resilience? He hasn't done a damn thing since the first twenty seconds of this match!

[Chad Forrest has now managed to separate the sprawling Hobo and Troy Knight and the two exit the ring and move to their respective corners. As Chad Forrest oversees that the two do indeed go to their corners, Enigma is continuing his assault on The Phoenix. Enigma begins to pull Sean to his feet but before he can Sean manages to throw his arm upwards and straight into the nether regions of Enigma. Enigma's eyes widen as he doubles over and then drop backwards to the mat. Troy Knight and The Hobo have no reached their respective corners and upon arriving to his, Troy sees a present waiting for him. Sean Harley is on his knees resting his head on the middle turnbuckle. Troy smiles, as only Troy can, and moves in front of Sean, creating a rather compromising looking position!] Troy then looks around at the crowd with a smile on his face and they go into a frenzy. Troy then shakes his head with a disgusted look on his face, reaches of the ropes, and tags himself into this match for the first time. Sean springs his head from the corner as Troy stands before him and has a look of disgust on his face.]

Sully: That right there folks is why Troy Knight should be banned from not only the MWF, but the wrestling world in general!

JP: Please! He was joking around, the man has his personal life and there's no need to bring it here to the MWF Sully!

Sully: He's the one who's bringing it to work with stunts like that!

JP: Here he goes!

[Troy Knight springs into action, much to the delight of the crowd who roar as Troy charges out of the corner. A now enraged Sean Harley tries to follow Troy, looking to pay him back for the latter embarrassment, only to be held back by Chad Forrest. Meanwhile, Troy cuts The Hobo off as he tries to enter the ring to stop Knight. Troy delivers a flying elbow to The Hobo which quickly drops him. Troy springs to his feet and then charges once more at Enigma, who has risen, and hits him with the same move. The Hobo has now gotten to his feet and is fixated on Troy as he hurriedly moves towards him. The Hobo grabs Troy's shoulder and then spins him around. As he does Troy launches his leg into the air and connects with the Heaven Sent, a spinning kick to the jaw of The Hobo. We can see the eyes of The Hobo roll back into his skull as he falls back to the mat.]

JP: Troy Knight is here and he is cleaning house!

Sully: I can't say that I'm completely against this at this point though JP.

JP: And why's that?

Sully: Just look!

[As Troy takes control of the match we see Tonya on the outside jumping up and down, cheering him on gleefully. Enigma is now struggling to his feet, but as he does, he is assisted by Troy who hoists him to his feet and then into the air with a quick vault press. Enigma soars briefly through the air only to land with his head pointing into the direction of the turnbuckle. The crowd quickly roar as Troy smirks and moves towards the turnbuckle. With The Hobo down on the opposite side of the ring, Troy knows this is the perfect opportunity for him to strike. With a quick climb Troy finds himself on the top ropes looking down on the prone head of Enigma. Troy throws his arms into the air and pauses only for a moment looking to either side of him to encourage the already deafening crowd.]

JP: Here it comes Sully, it's right around the corner!

Sully: Please Lord, spare us!

[Tonya on the outside is ecstatic as Troy leaps off the top rope and drops down, posterior first, into the wide open face of Enigma. Chad Forrest quickly comes running as Troy makes the cover � 1 � the pin is rapidly broken up. Troy springs to his feet to find that Sean Harley is standing face to face with Troy Knight. Knight is painted with confusion as Harley stands before him, red with anger. Harley begins to yell at Troy and point to the turnbuckle, apparently giving him hell for the little scene Troy made when he tagged himself in. Troy calmly tried to settle Harley's emotion, which is useless. The two continue to argue for a few moments when all the sudden, Troy is grabbed from behind. As his arms are wrapped around his neck and then he is bent backwards slightly we see The Hobo standing there with the Hobo Cutter ready to unload. Sean becomes more infuriated, but only for a moment. He seems as though he is about to lunge forward and make the save when all of the sudden he stops himself. The Hobo looks into his eyes confused, but only for a moment as he realises Troy is trying to escape. The Hobo then smiles and shrugs before he drives Troy downward. Troy crashes down to the mat as The Hobo connects with the Hobo Cutter!]

JP: What the hell is Sean doing?! He just let his own partner get executed!

Sully: Correction, he let his partner get what he deserved!

[The Hobo is still a little confused, and sceptical, as Harley stands just a few feet away, not making any attempt to stop the assault on Troy. Hesitatingly, The Hobo creeps over Troy and covers him, never taking his eyes off of Sean, who still, just stands a few feet away smiling sadistically. Chad too is in shock as he drops and makes the count �1 � 2 � 3! The Hobo gets off Troy on sheer amazement, and quickly rolls to the outside. As he reaches the outside, he moves over to Enigma and helps his partner out of the ring and then up the ramp.]

Peter Santos: And the winners of this match via pinfall; The Hobo and Enigma!

JP: That snake! He just threw this match down the drain because he didn't like Troy Knight, some class!

Sully: Better to lose with honour than win with Troy Knight!

JP: There is no honour in what Harley just did!

[As Enigma and The Hobo disappear backstage we see that back in the ring Troy has begun to get to his feet, holding the back of his head in pain. Sean Harley is still standing before him, with pure hatred in his eyes. Troy begins to scold Harley for not helping him out, and Harley simply stands there, not moving. Troy then decides Sean is a hopeless case and turns his back to exit the ring. As he signals to Tonya that the duo are leaving Troy is quickly spun around and met with a stiff kick to the gut. The Phoenix then jerks Troy's arms over his back and then quickly hoists him into the air and back down with a bone crushing Fiery Grave! Troy's body bounces off the canvas. As Troy lay motionless, Harley moves over top of him and begins scolding him relentlessly.]

JP: That was totally uncalled for! First he costs Troy the match and now this, what's the point!?

[As Sean verbally assaults Troy a shockwave goes through that arena along side the sound of "Master of Puppets" by Metallica blares suddenly. Sean Harley's head jolts to the side and his face drops as he sees Scotty Heart casually stride out onto the entrance way. The crowd go into an uproar as The Phoenix stands up and turns his attention from Troy to Scotty.]

JP: Is he here to help Troy?

Sully: What ever the reason for him being here, I don't like it! He's interrupting a well merited Troy-beating! I think it best if he just strolls back to his locker-room.

[Scotty has a devious smile all across his face as he slowly makes his way down the ramp. Sean stands a distance from the ropes, giving him an edge if Scotty were to sprint down and into the ring, waiting for Heaven's Gift, calling him on. Behind Sean we now see that Troy has begun to stir, as a result we see an even bigger smile appear on Scotty's face. Sean is completely oblivious to Troy's movements and therefore Sean becomes even angrier at Scotty's light humour.]

Sully: Turn around Sean! TURN AROUND!

JP: Things aren't looking very promising for Sean Harley right about now! When Troy comes to his senses he won't be a happy camper!

[Scotty has now reached the bottom of the ramp and is standing in front of the ring, assumingly waiting for Troy to fully recover. Troy has now gotten to his feet, and as TroyBoy shakes the cobwebs out, Scotty decides this is the time to pounce. Scotty slides under the bottom rope and into the ring. Sean then steps forward, but Scotty gets to his feet first. Sean then quickly stops in his tracks seeing Scotty eye to eye. Sean then does an about face only to bump into Troy Knight, fully coherent. The crowd is going absolutely insane at this point.]

JP: It's time to give the devil his dessert!

Sully: Now why didn't Sean just leave when he had the chance, this isn't going to end well, I can feel it!

[Sean then takes a few steps back with his hands up in a calming fashion trying to avoid a beating from Troy. As he backs up he suddenly bumps into Scotty who smirks. Sean then closes his eyes and shakes his head almost as if to say "Damn it!". All of the sudden Scotty grabs Sean by the shoulder, and pushes him out of the way. He lunges forward extending his forearm and drives it right into the chest of Troy Knight, levelling him instantly! The crowd gasp in shock only to proceed with a shower of jeers for Heaven's Gift!]

JP: What in gods name?

Sully: His name is Scotty Heart!

[Sean Harley's look of fear quickly transforms into an evil smile as he moves of to Scotty and the two high five. The two then turn to the entrance way to see Jay T making his way down the ramp, both tag titles slung over his shoulders, laughing and clapping at the sight before him.]

Sully: Brilliant! Simply brilliant!

JP: This whole thing was all a set up between these three men! That's grotesque!

[As Jay T nears the ring Scotty Heart lifts Troy to his feet, who at this point doesn't have a whole lot left in the tank. Troy is propped lifelessly by the huge arms of Scotty Heart who calls Jay T over to aide him. Sean then smiles and places himself in front of the three men. Jay T grabs hold of one of the arms of Troy Knight and Scotty grabs hold of the other. The two men then pull and prop Troy lifelessly as a target for Sean. On the outside Tonya is screaming for the trio to stop, but the jeers of the crowd all but drown her out. Sean looks around at the crowd smiling villainously, before he turns to Tonya and winks. Sean then smacks his thigh a couple times and thrusts forward and drives his foot into the face of Troy Knight sending him flying from the grip of Scotty and Jay T.]

Sully: Wahoo! That was fun!

JP: What a disgusting superkick! That was completely uncalled for, unfair, and unnecessary!

[With Troy out cold in the center of the ring, Sean once again stands over him and verbally assaults an unconscious Troy Knight as Tonya looks on, almost in tears. Scotty then taps the shoulder of Sean. Sean then turns around and throws his arms into the air along side those of Scotty Heart and Jay T who has handed Scotty his title and has his own in hand. Scotty Heart, Jay T and Sean Harley all stand over Troy Knight arms and titles high and proud in the air.]

JP: This really churns my stomach! A man like Troy Knight does not deserve this kind of treatment!

Sully: You're avoiding a very important factor here John, are these three men now a stable? Or is their hatred for Troy enough of a common groud?

JP: I sure as hell hope that these three aren't becoming a stable, that's the last thing the MwF needs right now!

Sully: So many questions, so little time, right we have to go to commercial! Don't go anywhere folks!
