[ BOOM! Six green and silver explosions of pyro tower above the stage, as many smaller flares go off around them. The house lights are turned to normal causing the fans to become even noisier as the camera pans around the stands... The entrance way of the Hysteria set is illuminated by strobe lights, while the "Rev"-Tron sits perched above, displaying the NLR logo. The camera trails off down the short ramp down to the blood-stained 4-Towers ring, decked in green ropes and a two-toned green ring apron with the NLR logo plastered on the center of the canvas. Finally the camera pans over to the announce table, where Tim Sullivan and John Pilkington occupy the seats... ]
JP: Welcome to Monday Night Hysteria! We're in for a hell of a ride tonight, here at the Wells Fargo Arena Phoenix Arizona, for another edition of High Impact in the Next Level of Professional Wrestling!
Sully: Better catch us this week, as next week we may be replaced by a "Facts of Life" marathon... I love that Mrs Garrett.
JP: I bet you do Sully, but we've got a great show tonight, headlined by a big match in the road to Once Upon A Time In Mexico, as Fear and Leandro take on The Grudge and a Mystery Partner!!
Sully: And who could it be, Dear God, please don't let it be that fat-assed Johnson in a costume again...
JP: We don't agree on everything, Sully. But let me be the first to second that statement.
[ Flashing lights illuminate the stage in their strobing effect as "Sinner", by Drowning Pool signals the arrival of The Weapon.. From out of the back walks the masked man, as he walks past outstretched hands of some of the people seated next to the aisleway, his focus never leaving his masked face. ]
Jackie Frazier: The opening contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, weighing in at 280 pounds, from Palmerston, North New Zealand, he is, The Weapon!!!
JP: The newcommer looks ready to go...
[ The lights inside the arena go out, and a single bright white spotlight shines down toward the ring entrance. �Faint' by Linkin Park begins to play over the PA, and out onto the ramp steps XVR. The entire crowd pops for him slightly, at the sight of this devilish man, but he seems oblivious to it all. He stares out into the crowd with a serious look on his face before taking a deep breath and beginning to walk down the aisle. ]
Jackie Frazier: And his opponent, from Parts Unknown... weighing in at 222 pounds... XVR!!
[ Once inside, he strecthes a little while awaiting the beginning of the match. ]
JP: Here is another up and comer, XVR. Both looking to make an impressive showing here tonight.
Sully: You know, XVR is giving up like... 60 pounds in this match.
[ The Weapon, charges towards XVR, then breaks it off to challenge a lock-up. They do, arm to shoulder, and begin to struggle back and forth, and The Weapon gives a big shrug, and pushes XVR to the mat.. He doesn't stay down for too long, getting back up, and charging towards the bigger man again, but this time, instead of a second lock up, The Weapon moves out of the way, grabbing XVR by the back of the neck, and escorts him, head first straight into the ladder post. He stumbles out to the middle of the ring, where The Weapon gives him a scoop slam. "el arma de la Guerra" runs the ropes, and lands an elbow drop on �The Strong Style Samurai� .. ]
JP: The Weapon showing early promise so far.
Sully: Yeah, but it ain't over until...
JP: 1....2.....kickout!
Sully: See?
[ The Weapon looks at the official, as if to say "Could that have been any slower?" He shakes his head, and begins stomping into XVR. He picks him up, and whips him into the ropes. When he goes for the whip, it is reversed by XVR. The Weapon comes back, and XVR nails him with a spinning heel kick, and that receives a small pop from the crowd. ]
Sully: Well well well, looks like SOMEONE got tired of being used as a chew toy.
JP: XVR looking to mount some offense!
[ XVR grabs the Weapon, and pulls him up to his feet. He kicks The Weapon in the gut, and launches himself up, and Tornado DDT's him straight into the mat. Making a quick cover. 1..... 2......kickout! XVR gets to his feet, and signals that he's going for the ladder. He stands on the top, as The Weapon gets back up, and turns around, facing him. XVR jumps off, going for a hurracanrana, but The Weapon holds on to him. The crowd gasps, as he nails XVR with a huge powerbomb. ]
Sully: Oh my god!
JP: I can't believe it, The Weapon has just powerbombed XVR!
Sully: ...... That was awesome!
[ Behind his mask, The Weapon lets out a huge grin, as he begins to play to the crowd, and moves over to XVR. He goes to pick him up, but XVR pulls him down, getting him into an inside cradel pin. 1..... 2....... kickout! ]
JP: The Weapon just escapes the cradle pin.
Sully: How hard can it be?
[ The crowd is starting to get behind the match... XVR gets to his feet, holding his lower back. The Weapon gets up, and charges towards him. But XVR ducks a clothesline attempt, and nails him with headscissors into a armbar... XVR hangs onto the arm of the standing Weapon, wrenching the shoulder, twisting the arm, and cutting off air, until finally, The Weapon collapses. He makes it near the ropes, clawing, dragging, but in the end, he taps beneath the pressure applied instead of passing out. ]
Jackie Frazier: Here's your winner... XVR!!
Sully: What an upset to start off with on Hysteria!
JP: You said it. There's no telling what's left to come tonight!!!
NLR 24/7
