[2 8 . 0 8 . 9 9]

The very last Throttle leading up to Zero Tolerance was an event like no other in the history of Planet Wrestling live telecast events. We two PW rookies wrestle what may have been their final match against one of the sports most feared men, the Dehumanizer. Massive injuries were suffered by both The Almighty Kippo and Crazy Dude, who were immediately rushed to the hospital. From there the Co-Presidents Brian and Gary Gibbs made their big announcement on the special hardcore rules for the Zero Tolerance 6 man Hardcore Championship match: a first ever Planet Dome roof match. Then what was scheduled to be a regular tag match between "Invicible" Vince Parker / eXtreme and "Obese" Hank Albert / Brad Oldfield turned into an all slaughter when TSK's "The Natural" Lawrence Watts challenged all four men to a handicap match. Following Watts' pinning of all four men, The Flying Muskrat stole the show against Airborn for his third straight win since entering the PW. Things were then taken to the outside parking lot area where both Snowblind AND the masked man were severely beaten by a mystery man covering himself in black bandages. And perhaps the biggest surprise of the evening was when The American Way took home the victory over "Livewire" Gil Crowley and "Hellraiser" Dave Carsonin a non-title match, which means that TSK will hve to hold up their end of the bargain with the Co-Presidents and defend the the tag straps at Zero Tolerance in a scaffolding match as well as stay away from the ring during the tripple threat World Championship match.
 
 
 

<The scene opens with a series of quick clips of various PW wrestlers performing moves on other, less fortunate wrestlers. Intermittent in between these are  short clips of pistons pumping, RPM gauges with the needles pushing the redline, flames flaring from an engine’s manifold, tires are seen squealing against hot asphalt then tearing into millions of pieces. Superimposed over all of this is the Planet Wrestling theme music. Finally, for the conclusion, a hand gloved in black leather gripping a stick shift shifts it into "high gear". The Throttle logo fades in over this, with the middle T’s replacing the shift stick. The music ends with a resounding, metallic "CHUNG!", then bursts into flames, fading into an aerial view inside the Planet Dome, where the PW theme music re-starts as fireworks go off by the entrance ramp and from the corner posts of the ring. The seats of the arena contain a sea of fans waving about various sings. The camera pans over them, and the shots switch as the crowd is scanned, bringing signs with writing such as "Jim Pattera is my Dad", "Herald the masked man", "(T)he (S)hitty (K)ickers", "Give Collins his Shot", "YOU’RE AS NUTTY AS A FRUITCAKE!!!", "Somebody’s under the ring!", "NX 4 EVER", "Kevin Hall sunk the Titanic" and even "DEYO FEARS RICHARDS". They’re cheering like mad as the camera sweeps over them. The shot switches to the announcer’s table at ringside, where David Deyo and Rick Richards are seated, wearing headsets and nice-looking business suits.>

[Deyo]- <voice raised to be heard over the cheering.> Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to another action packed edition of PW Throttle!! With Zero Tolerance right around the corner, you can bet your bottom dollar that we'll be seeing the tempers flaring and wrestlers taking it up a notch here tonight!! And what a lineup we have for you tonight! We have our cameras outside the building rolling to make sure they catch an unsanctioned match for you between the burly Snowblind and one of the three men who'll be going for the gold at Zero Tolerance: I'm talking about the mysterious "silent warrior" Herald! We’re not sure when or even IF this one will take place ladies and gentlemen, but if it does, you can bet that the PW crew will be there to record every detail. We'll also be seeing the high-flying young Airborn in a David and Goliath matchup against the crazy Russian: The Flying Muskrat, who will be one of the participants in the Six Wrestler Extreme Rules match at Zero Tolerance! And while we're on the subject, in a special announcement tonight, the world as well as the participants involved will FINALLY find out just WHAT KIND of match that they've gotten themselves into! And speaking of announcements, this one was just added to the card only minutes ago, we’ll see "Invincible" Vince Parker teaming up with eXtreme to take on the likes of "Obese" Hank Albert and Brian Oldfield. And finally, it's OFFICIAL: our main event tag team match has been signed! TSK's Tag Team Champions will be trying to win their right to appear at ringside with Smokin' John for the Triple Threat Match! But if they should LOSE, they'll be facing the AngelKillers at Zero Tolerance with the titles on the line in a SCAFFOLDING MATCH! And as if that wasn't enough, that's not ALL! We'll be kicking off the night with the Dehumanizer, who will be returning to the ring against a man who had a MOST impressive showing on Shockwave despite his size: The Almighty Kippo! And to keep with the surprises for the night, Dehumanizer will ALSO have to contend with one of the participants in the Extreme match at the PPV: Crazy DUDE! Apparently, this one was signed at the last minute due to a clause in Dude's contract stating that he had to wrestle in a match before the Pay Per View! It should be interesting to see just how the Dehumanizer HANDLES himself against these two talented newcomers! So buckle you safety belts and strap the crash helmet on tight: We're in for QUITE a ride here on Throttle. With me tonight is Rick Richards. Rick?

[Richards]- It's good to be here, Dave! EVERYONE is just dripping with anticipation for Zero Tolerance here tonight, and dare I say that with the lineup that we have tonight, that tonight's Throttle will be a sneak preview of the action we'll be seeing at the Pay Per View!! And kicking things off tonight after his outSTANDing entrance on our last airing of Throttle, we'll be seeing the diabolical Dehumanizer in the ring for the first time in MONTHS! Dave, I know that we saw an impressive performance from The Almighty  Kippo on Shockwave, but I can't help but think that he's was going to be the first sacrificial lamb of many for Dehumanizer in his returning reign of terror, so I'm glad to see that the odds have been, in my opinion, evened out a little with the addition of Crazy Dude to the match! And what about those rumors about a reforming PAIN? We've heard them before, but with Dehumanizer back in action, everyone has to be looking over their shoulders for potential PAIN foot soldiers. Who KNOWS: Maybe this is the "conspiracy" that Kahn's been talking about all ALONG!

[Deyo]- You have a good point there, Rick... But things look like they're about to get underway, so let's get to Jim in the ring.

<The bell rings.>

[Pattera]- The following handicap match is scheduled for ONE fall!

<"Get On Top by Red Hot Chilli Peppers" plays...>

[Pattera]- Coming first down the aisle, weighing in at 157 pounds, from Philadelphia, PA, he is The Almighty KIPPO!!!

<Kippo makes his way to the ring.>

[Kippo]- T-A-K! T-A-K! T-A-K!!

[Deyo]- Kippo trying to get the fans into this one early... And it's working folks!

[crowd]- T-A-K! T-A-K! T-A-K!! T-A-K!!

<"The Secret" by Pennywise plays...>

[Pattera]- And his partner, accompanied down the aisle by Crazy Dudette, weighing in at 204 pounds, from Saint John, NB, Canada, he is Crazy DUDE!!!

<The lights go out.>

[Richards]- Don't tell me they're having trouble with the lights again!!

[Deyo]- There's smoke filling up in the ring, Rick! Dehumanizer may be making his entrance already!

<The lights come back on and Crazy Dude is in the middle of the ring.>

[Deyo]- Huh?... Well, I'm not sure if that's a typical entrance for Mr. Dude or not, but you have to wonder if it was directed at Dehumanizer or not!

<The camera catches a glimpse of Crazy Dudette at ringside as we see Crazy Dude and The Almighty Kippo talking to each other in the middle of the ring. The lights dim and "Electric Funeral" by Black Sabbath plays...>

[Pattera]- And their opponent, from parts unknown, weighing in at 330 pounds, he is the former World Heavyweight Champion, the Dehumanizer!!!

<Dehumanizer makes his way through the curtains and walks to the ring, ignoring the jeers of the fans, and the cheers of a select few. He makes it to ringside, looking at his opponents in the ring, then stops dead in his tracks.>

[Deyo]- I'm not sure WHAT Dehumanizer is doing right now... He's rolling his eyes back and mumbling something to himself... But I can't make out what for the life of me... I'm not sure if he's even speaking English at all!

[Richards]- He'd better take his eyes off of his brain and start focusing on what's going on in the ring, Dave! There's TWO of them in there and they're BOTH young stars with something to prove and a name to make for themselves! Even in a handicap match situation, imagine the feathers in their caps if they could take out a former World Heavyweight Champ and a future Hall-of-Fame inductee like the Dehumanizer! And I'm not sure what Dehumanizer's going on about, but Kippo's in there and just laughing at him!

[Deyo]- The newcomer had better think about what he's doing or he may not be getting the last laugh here. Wait a second- Kippo off the ropes- Head full of steam- SLINGSHOT TO THE OUTSIDE! Dear LORD!!! Dehumanizer wasn't even LOOKING and he caught Kippo in MID-AIR!! His eyes were rolled back!!! Unbelievable!!! But now Crazy Dude climbing to to the top- Dear GOD: Suicide dive takes BOTH Kippo and the Dehumanizer into the steel safety rail!!!! This man is INSANE!!

<The bell rings. The lights return to the regular intensity.>

***The Almighty Kippo and Crazy Dude vs. The Dehumanizer***

[Richards]- I'll grant you that one Dave, but there may be a method to his madness: I dare say that Dehumanizer took the brunt of that blow into the steel rail! Referee Danny Dickson on the inside has started a count, but Kippo now WAILING away on Dehumanizer with the help of Crazy Dude! Pulling the big man up by the hair- OH! Double-teaming him- SLAMMING his face into those steel steps!

[Deyo]- Dehumanizer may be getting more than he bargained for against two fresh newcomers like these! Crazy Dude scoops up Dehumanizer and slams him down onto the mats! Kippo's on top of the steel ring steps- OH!!! He DROPS the leg across the throat of Dehumanizer! Crazy Dude isn't waiting for Dehumanizer to catch his breath, he's got him up in some sort of belly-to-back bearhug. Meanwhile, Kippo's back up and on the ring apron. A RUNNING LEAP!!! CLOTHESLINE to Dehumanizer, and Crazy Dude carries the momentum into a belly to back suplex sending Dehumanizer SAILING!!!

[Richards]- That's 330 pounds of EVIL tumbling END over END into the steel guardrail!!! Incredible maneuver by this unlikely combination!

[Deyo]- Both men HEAVE Dehumanizer back into the ring just before the ten count. Both men now up on the ring apron, looks like they're about to time another double team move. They jump UP, and SPRINGBOARD off the top rope onto Dehumanizer- but he gets the knees up in time! That took the wind out of their sails! Dehumanizer climbs up to his feet, towering over the two downed men. He pulls Crazy Dude off the mat, Irish whip into the ropes! Clothesline from Dehumanizer levels Crazy Dude!

[Richards]- He nearly turned him inside-out with that one! Now he's going after The Almighty Kippo!

[Deyo]- He has Kippo up, sends him to the ropes- BIG BOOT to the chest sends Kippo to the outside floor! But Crazy Dude's back up. He charges Dehumanizer with a double axe-handle across the back! UH OH! Dehumanizer didn't even BUDGE! He turns around, and Crazy Dude tries to follow up with a series of closed fists to the abdominal area! Dehumanizer isn't even flinching! Dehumanizer grabs Dude by the head- HEADBUTT!!! But Dehumanizer still has his head held firmly in his tight grasp. He's raking away at the face of Kippo, driving his fingers deep into his skin! Danny Dickson giving Dehumanizer a warning, but he doesn't seem to be listening!

[Richards]- Dehumanizer had better wise up or he's going to get himself disqualified here! OH! Kippo out of NOWHERE with a missile dropkick off the top ropes dropping Dehumanizer and breaking the hold! Dude's down a holding onto his face in pain! Crazy Dudette cheering Crazy Dude on to recover!  Dehumanizer getting to his feet now and Kippo is up too- Kippo with a dropkick to the knee of Dehumanizer, but the big man is still on his feet! Kippo up again- standing dropkick- Dehumanizer swats him down! Kippo may have met his match now that Dude is down!

[Deyo]- Kippo looking desperate, that's for sure! Kippo off the ropes- leaps- Forearm shot to the head of Dehumanizer! But the big man is STILL on his feet! Kippo up and off the ropes again- Flying head scissors- OH!!! BIGTIME powerbomb from Dehumanizer!!! Kippo down on the canvas and he looks hurt!

[Richards]- Are you surprised?! I surprised that the mat held out! Dehumanizer just about slammed him through the canvas and down to the floor! The man's a monster, Dave and he outweighs Kippo by almost a full 200 pounds! Dehumanizer still standing and he's just stomping away at The Almighty Kippo like a man possessed!

[Deyo]- He's just not letting up! I think that Dickson might just be a bit scared to give Dehumanizer a warning for his actions at that! Something has to be done!! Dehumanizer taking a break now... OH! Maybe not as he just dropped a knee down onto the head of Kippo! Dehumanizer now repeatedly slamming Kippo's face into the canvas! WOW! Crazy Dude out of nowhere and with a sleeperhold in Dehumanizer for the save! He has it locked on pretty tight!

[Richards]- This could be the end of Dehumanizer! He shouldn't have counted Dude out and concentrated his attack on Kippo I guess! Dehumanizer fading fast! Dickson creeping in there to check on Dehumanizer- lifting the arm- BACK down it goes! I think Dehumanizer may be out! He's lifting the arm again- AGAIN down it goes! Dehumanizer may have bitten off more than he can chew against this newcomer Crazy Dude!

[Deyo]- Crazy Dude with that sleeper like a set of VICE GRIPS! Dickson going for the arm again- NO! Dehumanizer snatches his arm away! I guess the sleeping giant has awoken! Dehumanizer getting back to his feet!! He's struggling to get Crazy Dude off his back!

[Richards]- I can't BELIEVE that the guy's still holding on, Dave! If I was him I'd be doing all I could just to get Dehumanizer back down and from what I can gather about Crazy Dude, this is a bit out of his element! Dehumanizer stumbling... OH! He just CRUSHED Dude by backing up into the turnbuckles! That'll take the air out of your lungs!

[Deyo]- But Crazy Dude STILL hanging onto that sleeperhold! I can't BELIEVE the tenacity of this young man, nor can I believe that the Dehumanizer is still trying to get out of the hold! He'll be on the verge of possible BRAIN DAMAGE sometime soon if any less blood is going to his head! Dehumanizer- OH! Again backing Crazy Dude into that turnbuckle! But the Dude is STILL holding on, though the sleeper has been broken!

[Richards]- Dehumanizer reaching back- GRABBING onto the shaggy hair of Crazy Dude- Hauls him over- CRIPES! He hit a TOMBSTONE out of that!!! What a recovery by the big man ladies and gentlemen!! Crazy Dude is down and he may be out! Dehumanizer on the ropes and trying to get some of that circulation back online! But Kippo back to his feet finally and look at his face: He's sporting a brand new bloody nose!

[Deyo]- Dehumanizer may have broken it for him when he was introducing The Almighty Kippo's face with the PW canvas, Rick! Kippo doesn't look happy at ALL! Kippo moving in there- OH! A series of kicks to the shins and legs of Dehumanizer by Kippo!!

[Richards]- He's using those kicks straight out of Thai boxing, Dave! OH! Dehumanizer with a sledgehammer forearm knocks Kippo off balance! Bearhug applied by Dehumanizer!! Kippo trying to fight it...

[Deyo]- He's gotten an arm free and he's tattooing the face of Dehumanizer with a series of punches! Dehumanizer off balance...

[Richards]- Woah DOCTOR!! Dehumanizer just dropped Kippo THROAT FIRST across the top rope! Kippo trying to get some air into his lungs, but his windpipe may need a few seconds after that move!

[Deyo]- You're not KIDDING! Dehumanizer still on the offense and pulling Kippo off the mat... He has him by the throat! Up aaand- CHOKESLAM!!! Chokeslam by the Dehumanizer!! The duo of The Almighty Kippo and newcomer Crazy Dude are in trouble now if they hadn't been before this!

[Richards]- Doesn't take a genius to figure that out, Dave! Crazy Dude isn't conscious over there and The "Almighty" Kippo is practically turning BLUE as we speak! Purple's next, Dave and it doesn't get any prettier after that! Dehumanizer looking at the carnage he's responsible for and it looks as if he just SURVEYING the scene to see what kind of damage he's done to these two! I swear, the man's SICK, Dave! Dehumanizer now going over to the unconscious Crazy Dude! I'm betting that this wasn't the debut he'd been hoping for! Dehumanizer rolling Crazy Dude over to his stomach- MAN! Stomp to the back of the head by the big man! Dehumanizer not setting him up or something... What's he doing... Oh no... I think we're going to see that hold we've been hearing about since the re-emergence of this guy- ohNO! It is!! He's hooked that camel clutch he calls "The Awakening" on the lifeless body of Crazy Dude!!!!

[Deyo]- The human body just ISN'T meant to be pulled in that manner folks! I'm not sure what he's feeling right now, but Crazy Dude's going to wish he'd STAYED unconscious after Dehumanizer lets him out of this hold!!! Danny Dickson in there looking for a submission, but there's no WAY that Crazy Dude can respond! He's out like a LIGHT for goodness sake!

[Richards]- Dickson checking by lifting the hand of Crazy Dude- But while he's doing that, Dehumanizer's taking the opportunity to dig his fingers in the face of the Dude!! Dehumanizer just clawing away at Crazy Dude's mug and messing it up something AWFUL!! He's turning it into a bloody MESS!!!

[Deyo]- This is a disgusting and brutal display here by the Dehumanizer! He's... Well, for the lack of a better word, he's just DEHUMANIZING Crazy Dude!

[Richards]- Finally Dehumanizer stopping that craziness, but he's probably doing more damage by RACKING Dude on that hold! HOLY CRIPES!!!!! Crazy Dude- His SHOULDER just tore open! There's blood all OVER! OhmyGOD!!!

<Danny Dickson covers his mouth, as if he's about to puke, and signals for the bell. It rings. Dickson high-tails it out of the ring and up the ramp, a spatter of blood on his shirt, and with his hand over his mouth.>

[Deyo]- For the love of the LORD! You could see exposed BONE there! That's the most brutal thing I've EVER seen! This is disgusting!

[Pattera]- Your winner, due to his opponents’ inability to continue, the DeHUMANIZER!!!

<"Electric Funeral" by Black Sabbath plays...>

[Richards]- Dehumanizer leaving the ring and smiling, Dave! Folks, this is one sick, SICK individual who's taken things a little bit too far! I can assure you that-

[Deyo]- Oh my goodness, sorry to cut you off Rick by I’ve just received word that SNOWBLIND has arrived outside the PW Dome! If we can get some footage from those outside cameras-

<The picture cuts to the outside parking lot area with the sun is setting in the background behind the dome of the Planet Dome. A black limo has already pulled up and we see the huge Snowblind looming around the area.>

[Deyo]- And the fans are off their seats as they look up at the events on the Planet-Tron! Looks like Snowblind’s ready to go! He has his sunglasses off, and I believe those are BRASS KNUCKLES he’s sporting on both fists! This is the first time we see him in action since he was banned from all PW events during a match with IceBerg weeks ago. You’ve got to wonder just what other surprises he’s got for Herald! Will Absolute Zero make an appearance here on the last Throttle before his big triple-threat World Championship match at Zero Tolerance? And will the man who wears a mask identical to Absolute Zero’s show up like he has in recent weeks, helping both Absolute Zero AND Snowblind! This man has been alleged to be Absolute Zero’s latest bodyguard, but Zero’s been denying any affiliation!

[Richards]- But most importantly, will HERALD even show up? This brawl IS unsanctioned by the PW after all, and it would be to his disadvantage to show up for such a fight before the big match with Absolute Zero and Smokin John Hayes! Absolute Zero knows anything can happen out there in the parking lot, and I’m betting that putting Herald out of action is on the top of Snowblind’s "To Do" list.

[Deyo]- You’ve got a great point, Rick. In fact, it still looks like Herald is nowhere to be seen. We’ve got the camera crew posted outside, so we’ll keep you closely updated on the situation!

<The shot switches back to the interior of the arena, at the ringside announcer’s table David Deyo puts his hand up to his headset as though listening to in coming announcement over it.>

[Deyo]- Alright folks, I’ve just received word from the crew that the PW Presidents Brian and Gray Gibbs will be soon be making their way to the ring to make their announcements right here on Throttle regarding the Extreme match at Zero Tolerance! Any idea of what we should expect to hear, Rick?

[Richards]- Actually I’m really not sure, Dave. We’ve seen hundreds upon hundreds of extreme matches out there all around the world, with stipulations ranging from electric ring ropes to a recent "Over the Falls" match which took place in Niagara falls. But Brian and Gary are promising to top anything we’ve already seen in terms of grandeur. And don’t forget that all those fans at home are absolutely GLUED to their sets, watching to see if THEIR suggestion was picked! Who knows, maybe it’s someone right here in the Planet Dome!

[Deyo]- I think leaving this one up to the fans was a great idea, another world’s first from the planet’s only wrestling show. One thing IS for sure though, we won’t be seeing Crazy Dude participate in this title match after the massacre we saw earlier tonight! Let’s all just hope he and Kippo are doing well in the hospital.

<The Throttle theme music starts up and a series of fireworks go off in front of the Planet-Tron. The whole crowd springs to their feet and begins to cheer. Presidents Brian and Gary Gibbs walk out with mics in hand and greet the fans with smiles and waves. Upon entering the ring, another set of fireworks goes off from the ceiling.>

[Richards]- Listen to that deafening crowd!!! A bomb could drop on this building and they still wouldn’t realize it!!! They can’t WAIT to hear what the Gibbs have to say!!!

<After a few moments of constant cheers and yells, Brian Gibbs raises the mic to his mouth and the fans slowly but surely begin to quiet down.>

[Brian Gibbs]- Ladies and gentlemen, fans from all around the world, we’re here tonight on Throttle to make a special announcement that is going to make Planet Wrestling’s very own extreme division much, MUCH more interesting.

[Gary Gibbs]- For the past weeks, we’ve been holding a WORLDWIDE contest to determine what kind of match the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF FANS out there wanted to see their favorite PW stars in! We read every single submission, and gave a large number of them great consideration. Then three days ago, we got the request topped ALL other requests! It had everything we were looking for to both challenge our wrestlers AND give you entertainment like you’ve never experienced before! We stopped reading all other e-mails, because we KNEW we had a winner!

[Brian Gibbs]- But before we reveal this to the audience and to the world, we’d like to bring out the participants who will be battling it out!

<"Sexy Boy" begins to play and the crowd goes nuts. Iceberg walks out to the ring. He climbs to the second rope and does a crotch chop. Everyone in the crowd salutes him with a crotch chop of their own.>

[Gary Gibbs]- Ladies and gentlemen, lets hear it for NX’s ICEBEEEEEERG!!!

<"I’ll Stick Around" cuts in on the sound system. A number a fans scattered in the crowd begin to wave Canadian flags while everyone else has a mixed reaction as The Canadian Crippler makes his way to the ring.>

[Brian Gibbs]- Say hello to Canada’s own Canadian CRIPPLLLLEEEEEEER!!!

<A heavy metal version of "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" begins to play. The mood of the fans shifts in the opposite direction as they begin to boo The Flying Muskrat who makes his way to the ring in his gunny sack and poorly crafted sandals. Before Brian or Gary can announce him, he grabs a mic out of Gary’s hand.>

[The Flying Muskrat]- YOU’RE ALL AS NUTTY AS A FRUITCAKE!!!

<The crowd takes the opportunity to boo him one more time before "The kids aren't all right" by Offspring cuts in and they go nuts. "The Iceberg" Kevin Hall walks out in his black leather pants and black tank top. He steps into the ring and gives the other three men a cold stare. Things seem to be getting uneasy between everyone as they pile into the ring.>

[Gary Gibbs]- Lets give it up for "The Iceberg" Kevin HAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL!!!

<"We are the Champions" by Queen cuts in over Kevin Hall’s music and the crowd again swings into their booing mode. "Better Than You" Brian Collins struts arrogantly down to the ring. He takes the mic out of Brian Gibbs hand before he can announce him.>

[Brian Collins]- I may be a Christly fruitcake, potato man, but I’m still BETTER THAN YOU!!!

<The tension between the five men starts to mount, especially after Brian Collins’ comment. Everyone seems to want to kill him.>

[Gary Gibbs]- Now lets not get too carried away just yet! We’ve still got ONE MORE PARTICIPANT!

[Deyo]- One more!? But Crazy Dude’s shoulder was really messed up! He’ll NEVER be ready in time!

[Brian Gibbs]- As you all know, Crazy Dude most likely will be out of action for some time. And after a long talk in the back, we’ve agreed that THIS man will be taking his place!

<The lights dim slightly and the crowd goes silent. After a short moment, "Electric Funeral" begins to play. The fans can’t seem to believe it as they take a few moments to start their usual booing and jeering. A few select fans do cheer, and raise their lit lighters. Dehumanizer then walks out, ignoring the fans as he makes his way down the ramp to the ring. His hands and face are still covered in splatters of blood from his handicap match earlier in the evening.>

[Brian and Gary]- And finally, THE DEHUMANIZER!!!

[Deyo]- My God! It’s DEHUMANIZER! He put Crazy Dude out of action earlier tonight, and NOW he’s taking his place in the Extreme Title match! This is too much!

<Before stepping into the ring, he stands at ringside with his eyes rolled back into his head. He mumbles something incoherent, unrolls his eyes, and climbs into the ring with the other five challengers.>

[Gary Gibbs]- Now with everybody gathered in this ring, and all the fans around the world tuned in, we’d now like to announce the WINNER of our mail-in contest for the Extreme Title match!

<A drum roll plays over the loudspeakers.>

[Gary Gibbs]- Like we said, it was a tough selection, but this entry made things a little easier: Ladies and gentlemen, our winner was a student out of the Victoria University of Wellington in Wellington, New Zeland, give it up for Christina Kelburn!!

<The fans clap a bit. The tension in the ring seems to be mounting.>

[Brian Gibbs]- Ms. Kelburn will be flown in for the event and have ringside seats for the show… Right up until the Extreme Title match!

<The fans seem a bit confused.>

[Brian Gibbs]- It will be at that point where she is flown, via helicopter, to hover over the Planet Dome, so that she can have the best seat in the house for our PW Extreme Title match set to take place in a ring ON TOP OF THE DOME ITSELF!!!

<The fans are going completely retarded. The wrestler in the ring don’t seem to know what to think of this outlandish stipulation.>

[Deyo]- Dear GOD! The Gibbs’ promised that this announcement was going to be big, but this is unheard of!!

[Richards]- I bet that all six men are wondering if they’ve gotten themselves in over their heads now, Dave!

[Gary Gibbs]- All participants will be flown up to the top by helicopter and dropped off near the ring, but as soon as they get the signal to start, it’s time to get EXTREME! Anything goes in this one! Elimination will occur when a man passes the point of no return and slides off the curved dome roof… into waiting safety nets!! The last man standing will be crowned the NEW Planet Wrestling EXTREME CHAMPION!!!

[Deyo]- The crowd is going crazy here folks! I don’t think I’ve every HEARD of such a crazy stipulation!

[Brian Gibbs]- So who will it be? Will it be Mr. Collins here? <The fans boo.> Will it be the Canadian Crippler? <The boos shift to about half cheers, half boos.> Could IceBerg bring the title home to New Generation X? <The crowd is cheering for the superstar as the tension in the ring seems to be approaching a breaking point.> Or will it be one of the giants of Planet Wrestling: The Flying Muskrat <The crowd boos.>, The Dehumanizer, <the crowd boos.> or Kevin "The Iceberg" Hall? <The crowd cheers wildly.> In this kind of match, ANYTHING could happen! Who will walk out as the Extreme Champion!? We’ll just have to wait and-

<"Better Than You" Brian Collins snatches the mic from Brian Gibbs and pushes him flat on his back.>

[Brian Collins]- Who will it be!? I’M going to win this Extreme Title because I’M BETTER THAN EVERYONE in this ring! I’m a former TCW World-

<Kevin Hall pushes Collins and knocks the mic out of his hand. The fans cheer.>

[Deyo]- Looks like we’ve got some trouble building up in the ring. Kevin Hall looks like he’s had enough of Collins’ ranting. Both men are toe-to-toe with each other, they look ready to go at it right here on Throttle! WHOA!!! Dehumanizer cuts down both men with a double clothesline! Brian and Gary Gibbs are getting the heck out of there! Meanwhile, IceBerg and The Flying Muskrat are starting to go at it! Icekick by IceBerg knocks Muskrat over the top rope! Now The Canadian Crippler sends Dehumanizer into the ropes- DOUBLE UNDERHOOK SUPLEX! This is out of hand!

[Richards]- Here comes Planet Dome security to get things under control! They’re separating the six men. They’re dragging them off to the back. OH!!! Muskrat breaks free and floors Kevin Hall with a big boot to the chest! MORE security has come out! Brian Collins tries to break free with arms FLAILING, but security holds him back! Good thing too. After all, we don’t want anyone breaking any bones BEFORE Zero Tolerance!

[Deyo]- That’s right, Rick. Who knows what kind of innovative displays of extreme talent these men will have in store for us on the curved surface of the Planet Dome’s own roof! Looks like things are pretty much under control again as the Gibbs make their way to the back again.

[Richards]- I don’t know about these fans, but THAT sure got ME pumped!!!

[Deyo]- Looks like we’re going to have to cut for a short commercial break folks! But when we return, we’ll be seeing eXtreme teaming up with "Invincible" Vince Parker to take on the duo of "Obese" Hank Albert and Brad Oldfield!

<The picture cuts to a promo clip for the Zero Tolerance Pay Per View event. Little windows with black and white slow motion clips in them of Herald, Absolute Zero, and Smokin John Hayes scroll by the screen. They are individual clips of what the three men have been doing in the last month or so. The most prominent are of Herald tearing apart Snowblind in the ring, Absolute Zero confronting the President with the former E-WCW World Title on his shoulder, and Smokin John sitting angrily in his prison cell. All the clips then fade to black, and all that remains one black and white still photo of Herald locking up with Smokin John with Absolute Zero as guest referee in the background. A faded E-WCW logo is also superimposed over this picture.>

[Voice Over]- Last time these three men stepped into the ring, the wrestling world changed forever…

<A loud explosion is heard and the picture is immediately replaced by huge PW logo with "Zero Tolerance" written below it. At the same time, a heavy metal riff kicks in.>

[Voice Over]- Now it’s time to do it again! HERALD! ABSOLUTE ZERO! SMOKIN JOHN HAYES! FOR THE PW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP, LIVE ON PAY PER VIEW! Check local distributors for details.

<The picture cuts back to the Planet Dome.>

[Richards]- Now I’m REALLY pumped! WHOOO!

[Deyo]- Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. We have so much action for you tonight that our following combatants couldn't wait for us to return from our commercial break. Fans at home, you sure are lucky since many of the fans in attendance almost lost their lunches! The teams for our next tag team encounter are already in the ring. We have the privilege of watching the team of "Invincible" Vince Parker and eXtreme take on the enormous and disgusting team of "Obese" Hank Albert and "BO" Brad Oldfield.

[Richards]- I know there have been several rumors flying around about Mr. Oldfield, but don't believe them. I don't think he's showered in the past 2 years!

<Referee Adam Kent is checking each of the wrestlers for foreign objects. He approaches Brad Oldfield and quickly backs away.>

[Richards]- This B.O. is disgusting! Even the referee doesn't want to be within 20 feet of this guy.

<The fans all stand up and look towards the aisle way.>

[Deyo]- What in the world is this? "The Natural" Lawrence Watts is making his way to the ring. He's not scheduled to wrestler tonight!

[Richards]- And it doesn't look like he's happy.

<Watts is walking towards the ring at a very quick pace. He heads to the announcers table and grabs a microphone.>

[Natural]- There will be NO tag team match tonight! Since the so called "presidents" of Planet Wrestling decided to hold a match with Dave and Gil against <Bleep> and <Bleep> and they didn't even ASK me if I'd like to participate…<he pauses and snarls at David Deyo> …I'm going to wrestle NOW! These four punks are going to pay for the sins of others!

[Deyo]- Did he just say what I think he said?

[Richards]- I think so. It sounds like "The Natural" is going to take on all four men in a handicap match!

<Watts throws down the microphone and rips off his TSK leather jacket. He throws his jacket on the steel ramp and rushes to the ring.>

***Watts vs. "BO" /"Obese" Hank Albert /"Invincible" Vince Parker /eXtreme***

[Deyo]- Under the bottom rope goes Watts and Parker and eXtreme meet him with boots to the back. They're having no affect as Watts gets to his feet. Elbow to the bridge of Parker's nose…boot to the gut on eXtreme and Watts has him up…

[Richards]- No! He can't do this!

[Deyo]- "The Natural" has just suplexed eXtreme OUT of the ring! "Obese" Hank sneaks up behind Watts…

[Richards]- How in the world can this 500 plus pounder sneak anywhere?

[Deyo]- Albert with a full nelson on Watts…Oldfield makes his way over and is winding up for a haymaker on "The Natural".

[Richards]- I don't think it was a good idea for "The Natural" to demand a match like this so close to his title shot against Blue Thunder.

[Deyo]- Or maybe it was! Watts spit in the eyes of Oldfield and plants a back heel kick to the groin of Albert. DDT on Mr. Obesity. "Invincible" Vince charges at Watts with a clothesline but it doesn't phase the massive monster. "The Natural" turns to Parker and grabs him by the throat…up goes Parker into a press slam…and down he comes via an enormous Samoan Drop! Watts climbs through the middle rope to the arena floor. He grabs eXtreme who is motionless on the concrete and tosses him into the ring. Back into the ring goes Watts.

[Richards]- If Watts is THIS pissed, I wonder how mad the rest of TSK will be when they face Truth and Justice? Watts picks up the limp eXtreme…here's the airplane spin and down with The Verdict!

[Deyo]- That should be it but Watts isn't even going for a cover. He heads towards Parker who is still reeling from that elbow to the nose. He grabs the "Invincible" one by the throat and crashes down with a two-handed power choke slam!

[Richards]- What is he doing now? It looks like he's positioning Parker and eXtreme on the mat near opposite corners. What's in store for them?

[Deyo]- "The Natural" grabs Albert by the hair. He punches the big man into the corner. A kick to the midsection, elbows to the face and poke to the eyes. Albert is visibly stunned by the shots he's been taking from Watts. Watts climbs to the top turnbuckle with a hand full of Hank's hair…he pushes the fat man forward a little and he jumps off with a legdrop across the back of Albert's neck and they crash on top of Parker!

[Richards]- "The Natural" is wasting no time. He charges at Oldfield and spears the smelly one! Watts picks up the Incredible Stench and places him on the top turnbuckle near the unconscious eXtreme.

[Deyo]- Lifting Oldfield is no small task for most wrestlers but Watts hoisted him up like he's a cruiserweight. "The Natural" climbs to the middle turnbuckle. He looks back at eXtreme to make sure he's in place.

[Richards]- Where in the hell is eXtreme going to go? He hasn't moved since this match started! Watts hooks his arms around the massive girth of Oldfield and Belly To Belly Superplex onto eXtreme!!!

[Deyo]- Good lord! Someone call the paramedics, he needs help! Watts kicks Oldfield off of eXtreme and pushes Albert off of Parker. All four men are down and out in the middle of the ring. Watts motions to Adam Kent as he lies across all four men…1…2…and 3!!!

[Richards]- "The Natural" Lawrence Watts has just won this 4 on 1 handicap match, but who was handicapped? He ripped through these 4 men like a hot knife through butter. The big question is…can he run through Zack Logan like this?

[Deyo]- No disrespect to these four men. They are all good quality wrestlers but they aren't in the same league as the Trans World champ. I think "The Natural" will have a much tougher time with Logan because he'll be facing a man that is downright pissed at him!

[Richards]- I agree but we can't overlook the fact of how pissed of Watts and the rest of TSK are. Fans, I would suggest ordering Zero Tolerance now! Don't wait until the last minute. Call your local cable company order it now. This is shaping up to be the biggest and best wrestling extravaganzas of all time. I personally can't recall an event with this much intensity so far in advance.

[Deyo]- Speaking of the Pay Per View, one of our next combatants is one of the very men who will be appearing in the Extreme Championship match: The Flying Muskrat!

[Richards]- Muskrat’s been hot in the ring lately, Dave. And from what we’ve seen from this newcomer, he’s no stranger to the extreme style. He’s shown us that he can take it up to that notch with ease. And of course, he’ll be going head to head with the fan’s favorite high flyer: Airborn!

[Deyo]- This’ll could very well turn into a warm up session for Muskrat with this match being held under extreme rules at Muskrat’s request. Pattera’s in the ring! Take it away!

<"Aeroplane" by the Red Hot Chilli Peppers starts to play.>

[Pattera]- This EXTREME match is scheduled for one fall! Making his way first to the ring, from Denver, Colorado, he weighs in as PW’s LIGHTEST wrestler at 129 pounds, he is AIRBORN!!!

<The fans cheer and wave their signs as Airborn steps out onto ramp and makes his way down to the ring.>

[Deyo]- Is this guy EVER small! Let’s hope he can use his size to his advantage against the near seven foot Muskrat!

[Richards]- Seven feet? Is that with or without that huge fluffy afro he sports on his head?

<A heavy metal version of "99 bottles of beer on the wall" begins to play and the fans boo wildly waving signs reading "Muskrat can’t hold his liquor" and other degrading comments.>

[Pattera]- And the challenger, being accompanied to the ring by Willy the Whale Harpooner, hailing all the way from Nizhniy, Russia, weighing in at an incredible 490 pounds, The Flying MUSKRAT!!!

<Muskrat walks through the entrance curtains and down the ramp at a slow pace with his head held high as the fans continue to boo him. He suddenly spots a rogue fan who is paying tribute to the Muskrat by wearing a gunny sack like his own. He smiles proudly for a moment at the fan, but then notices the fan is wearing wooden sandals of better craftsmanship and takes a running lunge at him over the guardrail.>

[Richards]- HOLY SH!T!!!

[Deyo]- What’s happening!?!

[Richards]- Muskrat’s tearing that poor boy apart!

[Deyo]- Dear God! He’s ripped that gunny sack off the kid, and now he’s CHOCKING him with it! Get some help down there, QUICK!!!

<A group of Planet Dome security guards and medical crew rush to the scene and manage to rip the two apart. They redirect the angry Muskrat to the ring while they wheel the boy out on a stretcher.>

[Deyo]- I… I apologize for what you’ve just seen folks. Planet Wrestling in no way endorses the actions of The Flying Muskrat.

[Richards]- I’ve never seen anything like that in all my time as a commentator, Dave. That one tops it all.

[Deyo]- Let’s just try and put this ugly incident behind us and get to the action. Muskrat’s made his way into the ring, it looks like referee Ken Butler is going to be getting this one underway. Both men are starring each other down in the center of the ring.

<The Bell rings.>

***The Flying Muskrat vs. Airborn***

[Deyo]- Airborn is- he’s MOCKING The Flying Muskrat with by doing an imitation of the monkey dance! The crowd is eating it up!

[Richards]- I’m not sure this is a good idea on Airborn’s part, turning his back to Muskrat like this and dancing for the fans! Muskrat is looking like one angry Rusky right about now. OH! He clamps on a bear hug from behind! Maybe this’ll teach Airborn to stick to wrestling!

[Deyo]- Airborn’s got a lot of fight in him though, especially where this is the opening of the match. He’s trying to drive a stiff elbow to the temple of Muskrat, but he just can’t seem to reach! OH!!! Muskrat puts a stop to that with a belly-to-back suplex sending Airborn flying over the top rope and to the outside! What strength from this big man! Incredible!

[Richards]- Ken Butler is on the outside with a close eye on Willy the Whale Harpooner. This may be an extreme match-up, but interference still isn’t allowed here!

[Deyo]- But he’s not done just yet, he’s going to the top rope while Airborn struggles to his feet with the guardrail. Airborn’s up, but the Muskrat has him in his sights! Diving clothesline off the top rope!

[Richards]- Impressive agility from this huge seven foot man! We’ll have to wait and see how this agility works for him when facing FIVE other men at Zero Tolerance.

[Deyo]- Muskrat looks like he may have hit his knee on the way down, but he’s already up to his feet with a handful of Airborn’s mask. Muskrat setting him up- he’s got him straight up in the air for a vertical suplex! He’s toying with the small Airborn, letting the blood rush to his head!

[Richards]- Airborn was probably expecting to spend some time flying through the air in this match tonight, but not quite like this Dave!

[Deyo]- And he brings him down - OH!!! Right across the guardrail!!! Airborn is laying motionless amongst the crowd! Security is keeping the fans away from the action. Remember folks, this is an extreme rules match, so ANYTHING goes!

[Richards]- What’s The Muskrat doing, Dave? Looks like he’s fiddling with one of the sections of guardrail. OH MY GOD!!! He just ripped it out! Muskrat has a section of that steel guardrail heaved high above his head!

[Deyo]- Here it comes! Lookout!! OH! Right across the body of Airborn before he could even MOVE! Muskrat lifts it high up once more, and DOWN on Airborn! He’s trying to crawl out from underneath it, but Muskrat’s walking all over it and crushing him underneath. Talk about BRUTALITY! This Russian is just plain deadly tonight! I can assure you that all five of the other participants of the Hardcore match at Zero Tolerance are watching this man closely.

[Richards]- Looks like you may have spoken too soon, Dave: Muskrat is doing his MONKEY DANCE on top of the guardrail while Airborn lies helpless underneath it!

[Deyo]- Sweet baby Lord JESUS! Someone has got to tell this guy that this isn’t a dance show already! Thank God, it looks like Muskrat is done fooling around and finally getting back to business here as he pulls the bent piece of guardrail off of Airborn. But things aren’t over for Airborn just yet! Irish whip by Muskrat- reversed by Airborn- reversed AGAIN by Muskrat sends Airborn careening into a large set of empty ringside folding chairs!

[Richards]- Good thing those fans got out of there in time, or Airborn would’ve GOTTEN them out! Referee Ken Butler is right in there with a warning to Muskrat! The safety of the fans is always important in a situation like this. Looks like the security is backing them up some more.

[Deyo]- Airborn has struggled up to his feet and is trying to make his way back to the ring! Airborn’s over the guardrail, but Muskrat right there behind him! Airborn’s laying limp across the ring steps taking a breath, but here comes Muskrat with a double axe-handle! OH!!! Airborn’s out of there just in time and Muskrat’s fist connect with those steel steps! Airborn SPRINGS off the guardrail with a MOONSAULT!!! Moonsault onto Muskrat! Beautifully executed! The Flying Muskrat’s shaking the cobwebs, while Airborn is quick to his feet. The crowd’s going wild for this young star! Muskrat’s making his way to his feet, but Airborn cuts him back down with a well timed dropkick to the back of the head! Airborn on the ring apron now, waiting for Muskrat t move into position. Muskrat’s up- and DOWN with a hurricanrana by Airborn! He’s got this crowd on its feet! But Muskrat EXPLODES off the mats with a short clothesline! He’s looking under the ring for something… He’s got a steel pole! WHOAHO!!! He just bent it over the head of Airborn with a mighty swing! Airborn is down and out! Muskrat’s using that bent pole to apply a modified camel clutch! He’s driving right into Airborn’s neck, and pulling back for added pressure on his back! This is absolutely devastating!

[Richards]- I’m not sure how much farther Airborn’s back can bend! This isn’t looking good for him!

[Deyo]- Muskrat’s back up and he’s looking for something else under that ring. He pulling out a folding table! He slides it into the ring and goes back after Airborn. He pulls Airborn back up to his feet and delivers a few closed fists to the face! Muskrat rolls him into the ring and follows suit. Muskrat setting up the table while Airborn’s stumbles around on his feet. It looks like he’s lost all sense of where he is! Muskrat from behind- LOW BLOW UPPERCUT! If Airborn wasn’t hurting before, he is now!

[Richards]- With a move like that, he could be setting him up for The Hickory Nutcracker!

[Deyo]- You may be right Rick! Muskrat’s up on that table and he’s drug Airborn with him. I’m not sure that table can support the weight of both men for much longer, it’s already starting to BEND! Muskrat setting him in the tombstone piledriver position. It’s Hickory Nutcracker time! NO!!! Airborn with a last ditch reversal in a hurricanrana DDT through the TABLES!!! There’s splinters and debris scattered EVERYWHERE folks! Ken Butler is trying to clear the ring of this mess, but Airborn snatches a piece of the broken table away! OH! Right across the back of Muskrat’s head! Airborn again, right down on the TOP! One more time- BLOCKED by Muskrat! The blows to the head didn’t even PHASE him in the least!

[Richards]- I think that huge afro of his is cushioning these blows to the head! Unbelievable!

[Deyo]- Muskrat returns the favor with a left! And a right! And a left! Down goes Airborn! Muskrat brings him back to his feet. He sets him up- fisherman suplex!!! Ken with the count… 1… 2… hand on the ropes! Ken Butler breaks the hold.

[Richards]- Poor ring positioning by Muskrat. He had a great arch going back there, he could have had this won!

[Deyo]- He’s arguing with the ref, looks like he feels that was a slow count! In the meantime, Airborn is actually making his way to the top ropes! Could this be his Crash Landing 720 splash? The crowd’s going nuts! Muskrat turns around- Airborn leaps- OH!!! Muskrat snatched him out of the air in mid Crash Landing, he’s setting him for the Hickory Nutcracker! He does! Airborn’s down- He covers him. 1… 2… 3!!!

<The bell rings.>

[Pattera]- Here is your winner, The Flying MUSKRAAAAAAAAAT!!!

[Richards]- Muskrat has been unstoppable since his arrival into Planet Wrestling, Dave and Airborn’s just been added as number three to his list of brutalized opponents! Willy the Whale Harpooner’s gotta’ be proud of this find!

[Deyo]- We’ll have to wait and see if that number will jump up to eight come this Zero Tolerance! With a competitor like this, Planet Wrestling first ever DOME match is bound to get a Helluva’ lot more interesting!

<David Deyo puts his hand up to his headset as though listening to an incoming message.>

[Deyo]- Oh CRAP! Cut to the outside! Cut to the outside! Herald… no, SOMEONE is outside POUNDING on Snowblind as we speak!

<The shot cuts to the outside where Snowblind is already laying face down on the parking lot pavement. Standing over him is a man covered in with black bandages that wrap all around him. His identity cannot be certain, although he seems to stand in the same fighting stance as Herald. His movements seem precise and calculated.>

**** Snowblind vs. Mystery Opponent****

[Deyo]- HOLY! Looks like things have ALREADY gotten underway in the parking lot area!

[Richards]- Better late than never! And who the heck is this "black mummy" joker!? Is that HERALD!? What’s he trying to prove? Haven’t we seen ENOUGH masked men running around the PW lately!?!

[Deyo]- I can’t say that’s Herald for sure, but he IS taking it to Snowblind with a vengeance! Kick to the ribs on the downed Snowblind! And another kick! Snowblind isn’t moving!!! What could we have missed? He drops the knee down on the middle of Snowblind’s back.!

[Richards]- Now he’s taking one of those brass knuckles off of Snowblind! The tables are turning right NOW!

[Deyo]- This man’s rolled Snowblind onto his back and is beating the living pulp out of him with the brass knuckles! This is disgusting! Snowblind’s face is busted wide open, and there’s blood all over both men! He’s now blatantly CHOKING Snowblind, but there’s no ref out there to save the man!

[Richards]- Snowblind looks like he’s coughing up blood, but I’m not sure if it’s just blood running off his face and into his mouth! The black bandaged man is up off Snowblind and somehow manages to pull that huge mass of a man back up to his feet!

[Deyo]- Irish whip sends Snowblind face first into the limo he pulled up in! The black bandaged man follows in with a spinning heel kick to the chin of Snowblind! What are those white things!? I think Snowblind just lost a few TEETH!!! This guy isn’t stopping, he’s ripped the hood of the limo wide open! Now a left and right uppercut to Snowblind! He places Snowblind’s whole upper body area into the engine area and wedges it there SLAMMING the hood on top of him! Now this man’s headed to the top of the limo! Snowblind’s still laying motionless with his whole upper body under that hood! He’s on top, and DOWN onto the hood with a splash!

[Richards]- The hood is DEMOLISHED! And to think Snowblind is being crushed underneath it! I’m sure a lot of Snowblind’s past targets are cheering inside the locker rooms of the Planet Dome as this unfolds!

[Deyo]- Now this man has rolled back onto the ground and is again in total control of this brawl, hauling Snowblind out from under the hood. Now they’re both headed onto the hood of this limo! He nails Snowblind with a closed fist, and then a knee to the midsection doubling him over in pain. He hooks up- DDT into the WINDSHIELD of the limo!

[Richards]- It didn’t shatter Dave, but there’s a HELLUVA lot of blood smeared on it right about now! The bandaged man rolls off the hood and back onto the pavement. What the… Who’s THAT!? Standing dropkick nailed by some man off screen sends the black bandaged man to the pavement! It’s the black-suited man in an Absolute Zero mask! AGAIN he shows at a convenient time! There’s no doubt in my mind that this man IS affiliated with Absolute Zero ONE way or another!

[Deyo]- He’s driving his foot into the back of this bandaged man’s head, grinding his face into the pavement! Even those bandages aren’t protecting his face! Now he’s leaving him there, going for… for a HUBCAP off the front tire of the limo! The bandaged man SPRINGS to his feet before he can even THINK of hitting him with that hubcap! He knocks Zero’s alleged bodyguard to the ground with a kick to the chest! He rolls him over, gets ahold of the legs and applies a BOSTON CRAB!!!

[Richards]- That’s the first sign of actual WRESTLING I’ve seen during this whole fight!

[Deyo]- He’s really sinking the hold on! This bandaged man can’t be stopped! The masked man is writhing in utter pain! And again there’s nobody here to break the hold! He isn’t letting go!!!

[Richards]- This is crazy! Reminder to everyone at home that the PW isn’t responsible for the actions of these athletes in a brawl such as this one! I can’t believe he still has that boston crab locked on! That man’s lower back must be in pieces!

[Deyo]- In fact, it looks like he isn’t even MOVING right about now! It looks like he’s out cold, and this bandaged man KNOWS it! Meanwhile, Snowblind is STILL knocked senseless on the hood of that limo!  Wait, he’s releasing the hold on the masked man! He IS passed out from the pain! That must have been excruciating! Nevertheless, he’s now POUNDING the masked man’s face in with the brass knuckles! Blood’s soaking RIGHT THROUGH the mask! He’s STILL pounding away!

[Richards]- If this IS Herald, I haven’t seen the likes of THIS kind of hardcore attitude since his scaffolding match in ’98 versus SID! And I’d say even THIS tops it!

[Deyo]- Wait, wait, he’s backing off Rick. He’s just walking away! If there IS a winner in this kind of event, I’d have to say it goes to that man wearing the blood-soaked black bandages! Both Snowblind AND the masked man have been laid out! I wonder what Absolute Zero is going to have to say about THIS one!

[Richards]- Seems like this was all an ambush gone terribly wrong, Dave. Snowblind was out like a light before the masked man even arrived there for the assault. And when he DID, this man in the black bandages was just too much for him to handle!

<The picture cuts back to the cheering crowd who are all on their feet watching the outside brawl finish up. They’re cheering at the final shots of the two bloodied and unconscious men.>

[Deyo]- Well we’re back to the action inside the Planet Dome, awaiting for our main event of the evening: "Hellraiser" Dave Carson and "Livewire" Gil Crowley are going up against Truth and Justice, The American way!

[Richards]- This one has great potential be a barn burner, Dave. Carson and Crowley of TSK may not putting the tag straps on the line, but there’s still a lot at stake.

[Dave]- Ever since Presidents Brian and Gary Gibbs announced earlier in the week that TSK was to be banned from ringside during Zero Tolerance, they’ve been upset to say the least. They bounced back off of Presidents decision by pointing out that Snowblind was banned from all PW events until the PPV only after putting this right on the line in a match against Iceberg.

[Richards]- TSK had backed the Presidents into a tight corner, forcing them to grant them a similar match, but with one catch: if TSK loses here tonight, not only do they forfeit the right to appear at ringside with Smokin John for the Triple Threat match, but they will have defend the World Tag Team titles against the Angel Killers in a dangerous SCAFFOLDING match!

[Deyo]- And they’re putting this ALL on the line against the PW’s newest tag team combination of Truth and Justice. I’ve never seen these two men in the ring together in either tag or singles competition, so it’s anyone’s guess as to what could go down here tonight!

[Richards]- Pattera’s in the ring, Dave! Here we GO!!!

[Pattera]- The following NON-TITLE match is scheduled for ONE fall... Coming first down the aisle, from Washington, DC, weighing in at a total combined weight of 482 pounds, introducing Truth and Justice: The American WAY!!!

<The pair makes their way down the ramp and aisle and toward the ring. Truth wears a pair of long tights and Justice wears a matching pair of trunks- Both are in the stars-and-stripes motif. They slide into the ring and stand at attention, looking toward a hanging American flag.>

[Pattera]- And here tonight to sing the national anthem, is celebrity Tony Danza!

<Danza comes out to the theme of "Who's the Boss?" and enters the ring. He sings the anthem...>

[Danza]- Fo' tha' laaaa-and of the freeeeeeeee, and the home of da' braaaaave!

<The fans clap.>

[Danza]- Ay-O. O-ay.

<He hits the road as fans cheer. "You've Got Another Thing Coming" by Judas Priest begins to play... >

[Pattera]- And thier opponents, accompanied to the ring by Bambi, Jugs and Candi of the Smoking Bombshells, they are the PW Tag Team Champions of the World: "Hellraiser" Dave Carson and "Livewire" Gil Crowley!!!

<Crowley and Carson walk out from behind the curtains, with Smoking Bombshells Bambi, Jugs and Candi. They make their way to the ring and climb in. Suddenly, the "BANG!!!!!" of a huge explosion going off is heard, startling Truth and Justice. Crowley and Carson get right in there and start to attack their opponents. The bell rings.>

***Hellraiser and Livewire vs. The American Way***

[Richards]- WOW!!! This one LITERALLY starting off with a big bang as referee Adam Kent is trying to get things under control in there! "Hellraiser" and "Livewire" really getting the jump on Truth and Justice! "Hellraiser" with Truth in the corner and hammering his shoulder into Truth's midesection!

[Deyo]- Meanwhile we're seeing Crowley stomping away at Justice! I really think that the members of The American Way were a bit thrown off by that bomb blast!

[Richards]- How could they NOT be thrown off! My ears are STILL ringing from that racket! "Livewire" now- TOSSES Justice to the outside! And Crowley following him to the outside... I guess that's ONE way for Kent to get this under control! I guess Carson and Truth are going to be considered the legal men for now. "Hellraiser" still the agressor and bashing the face of Truth into the turnbuckle repeatedly! "Hellraiser" now with a boot up to Truth's throat and choking Truth with it!... And using the top rope for more leverage- Kent in there to call for the break!

[Deyo]- Carson with a handful of hair- Throws Truth down to the canvas!

[Richards]- I'm not sure where the Gibbs got the idea that this "American Way" would be able to beat TSK, 'cause so far I'm really unimpressed...

[Deyo]- Just give the newcomers a chance, Rick, and they might just surprise you! Carson now over to his corner and the tag is made... Both men pickin up Truth now... Double suplex... But they're holding him up there... Turning around- OH!!! Dropping him down across the top rope stomac-first!

[Richards]- TSK really teaching these two a lesson! I'm not so sure about these two...

[Deyo]- And listen to the crowd, Dave! They know that Truth's not doing well, but I think they might simply want TSK away from ringside at Zero Tolerance!

[Richards]- You may be right on that one, Dave! But at this rate, we'll be seeing a WHOLE lot of TSK at the Triple Threat match! "Livewire" now measuring Truth up- DROPS the leg across the throat! Softening him up for the Decapitator early on no doubt! I don't know, Dave: What do you think of this Truth guy so far?

[Deyo]- Not much, Rick. He's not put up ANY sort of offense here so far and he's in a lot of trouble. He's in desperate need of tag, that's for sure...

[Richards]- You can say that again, Dave! "Livewire" not letting him get anywhere neer his corner either as he's setting him up- Snap suplex by Crowley, and a perfectly executed one at that! Like him or likely hate him, "Livewire"'s a great young wrestler, even if he does need a little fine tuning. Crowley now to his feet again and to the second rope- Drops the closed fist down onto Truth! Crowley now tagging in "Hellraiser"!

[Deyo]- Crowley out and in comes Carson- BIG boot to the ribs there by Carson! Carson in complete control and pulling Truth to his feet... Scoops him up aaaand DOWN across the knee for a stomachbreaker! TSK just dismantling The American Way's Truth here! Carson hauling Truth up with a handful of hair- Crowley waiting with the foot up- Carson SLAMS Truth's face right into Crowley's waiting boot! Playing fair just isn't in the vocabulary of these two ruffians!

[Richards]- Carson now pulling Truth off the mat: Bearhug by "Hellraiser"!! And in comes Justice, but Adam Kent backing him back toward his corner! And look at Carson: He's released the bearhug, but now he's choking Truth across the top rope! "Livewire" on the apron with Truth by the back of the head- OH! He just jumped to the floor and put a WHOLE lot of pressure on Turth's neck on the way down! Devastating!

[Deyo]- You're not KIDDING, Rick! He's really singled out the neck area of Truth and he's working on hurting him but GOOD! But it's Carson now in the ring- Kneedrop right to the head! Carson up and: he just SPIT right in Truth's face! Talk about adding insult to injury!

<The fans are booing loudly at this.>

[Richards]- I think the insults ahve only just BEGUN, Dave! "Hellraiser" right in Truth's face and laying it on AWFULLY thick! No lip reading now kids!

<The fans are booing even louder.>

[Richards]- And Truth ain't the ONLY one "Hellraiser"'s got a beef with, now he's yelling out at the fans!

<The fans are booing much louder than before.>

[Deyo]- But they're returning with some of their own, that's for sure, Rick! "Hellraiser" now done with the fans and NOW he's taunting Justice and saying something about his mother! Justice has heard enough and he's in the ring- Forearm shot on Carson! And another! But referee Adam Kent right in there and instructing Justice to get back to his corner!

[Richards]- He's not helping Truth out in there at ALL either, 'cause while HE'S hotheaded and trying to get in on the action, "Livewire"'s joined Helraiser in dishing out a good old-fashioned beat down on Truth! They're just hammering away at him! Kent still trying to get Justice out of the ring and Truth is REALLY suffering for it now!... Carson out- He just clapped his hands! Justice finally out and Kent turning around...

[Deyo]- And Crowley going for a cover- BUT HE'S NOT THE LEGAL MAN AT ALL! NO! I can't believe it, but Truth got his shoulder up! But just BARELY, I assure you! And Crowley can't believe it! He's up and yelling at Kent!

[Richards]- I have to agree with "Livewire" on this one, Dave, but not because I think he had the pin: I mean, let's face it- Truth hasn't put up even a SPRINKLE of an offense here! The man can't defend himself. Kent should have let this one go.

[Deyo]- I have to admit, Rick: You have a point there... But if Truth can just get the tag to Justice, we could have a whole new ballgame on our hands! Nonetheless it's Crowley in control and pulling the battered Truth up to his feet... Crowley off the ropes- DROPKICK to the knee of Truth! TSK really taking Truth apart piece by piece tonight!

[Richards]- You have to wonder just what was going through the Gibbs' minds when they signed THESE two into this match! Hell, they'd have done better to pit them against the team of Underdogg and Airborn!

[Deyo]- Maybe they would have if Airborn hadn't have been facing the Muskrat earlier in that brutal match, Rick. And I don't know how soon we'll next be seeing Airborn in action after the big Russian assaulted the youngster with that guardrail!

[Richards]- I guess you're right Dave, but this "Truth" guy just hasn't been showing us ANY wrestling skill here whatsoever.

[Deyo]- Not that TSK has been giving him much of a chance... Crowley once again pulling Truth up... But he's having a bit of difficulty as Truth is SO exhausted that he's more or less just dead WEIGHT! Crowley pulling him up nonetheless showing some good strength from the youngster- DEAR GOD! ROLLUP BY TRUTH! 1!.. 2!- NO! Crowley kicked out at two! The crow coming to life here, but Truth just didn't have enough strength to hold on to it long enough!

[crowd]- U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

[Richards]- I'm guessing that the rollup probably just succeded in making "Livewire" mad though Dave! And it looks like I was right: "Livewire" with a blatant choke on Truth!

[Deyo]- And right in front of the referee! This kid has a lot of gall! Releases it at the five count! "Livewire" pulling him up now- DDT!

[Richards]- Holy crap! He just exploded into THAT one, Dave! "Livewire" now getting to his feet... He's going over to the corner and- He's climbing the ropes! It could be time for the Decapitator, Dave! He's taking his time though...

[Deyo]- Oh for the love of the LORD! First we have to deal with the antics of the Flying Muskrat's "Monkey Dance" and NOW we're subjected to Crowley's gyrating to the crowd while on the second rope! Pull-EEZE! The crowd booing Crowley like CRAZY, but he seems to be ENJOYING the attention! What the?! Truth from behind- NAILS Crowley with a low blow uppercut!!!

[Richards]- The fans are on their feet, Dave!! "Livewire"'s hurt! Truth slowly getting to his feet!... He has Gil by the arms!... CRUCIFIX POWERBOMB!!!! THE CROWD IS GOING NUTS!!!

[crowd]- U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!! U-S-A!! U-S-A!!!

[Richards]- Truth slowly crawling over to get to his corner and Justice leaning over as far as he possibly can!!

[Deyo]- He's really stretching for that tag! Wait: Carson in there- OH! He just dropped the elbow onto the back of Truth and cut him off! But Kent backing Carson back to his corner and instructing him to get out of the ring! On the other side of the ring: Justice is in and... He's rolling Truth out! Claps of the hands and now he's charging in on Crowley- JESUS! Lands a moonsault out of that sprint! Kent turning around- And he thinks there was a tag!!! TSK getting some of their own medicine from Justice as the rookie took a page out of TSK's book of tricks!

[Richards]- And Hellriaser looks like he's going to EXPLODE, Dave! Justice up and off the ropes- Snaps down into a legdrop! Quick to his feet again and pulling "Livewire" up- Justice- Hurricanrana!! The fans are going totally BONKERS!

[Deyo]- Justice pulling Crowley up again- Sends him to the ropes- Back body drop! But Crowley springing to his feet! Charging in- Hip toss by Justice! Crowley up an in there- ANOTHER hip toss by Justice! Justice is ON FIRE!! Justice right on Gil again- Irish whip to a neutral corner! Justice lunging in- OH!! Big vertical splash in the corner! Crowley is in all KINDS of trouble! Justice climbing to the second rope and just LISTEN to those fans! Punch to the face by Justice!

[crowd]- 2! 3! 4! 5! 6! 7! 8! 9!! 10!!! <They're cheering like mad.>

[Deyo]- It's pandemonium here folks! I can barely hear myself over the cheers for this newcomer Justice who's REALLY taking it to Crowley!

[Richards]- You have to wonder whether Crowley wore himself out from putting such a beatin' on Truth in the early goings of the match! Justice tossing "Livewire" to the mat with a snapmare takeover! Crowley on the mat and trying to shake out the cobwebs but Justice has him by the wrist- OUCH! Justice stepped over and dropped the leg on "Livewire"'s arm! That's got to be MURDER on "Livewire"'s shoulder area, let me tell ya'!

[Deyo]- You're not kidding! Justice here in complete control and look at Carson over the in his corner: The man is just FUMING!! He wants to get in there worse than ANYTHING right now!

[Richards]- It must be tough to watch things fall apart for his protogé in there, but there's not too much he can do about it until a tag is made! But Justice climbing to the top- "Livewire" coming around- Suicide dive off the top rope by Justice takes Gil down! Justice's shoulder connected with Crowley's skull and Gil fell to the mat face first! He's in trouble! The crowd is going totaly ape sh!t!! Justice pulling him up by the tights- Shot to the kidney- And a hammerlock applied by Justice!! He's liffting him straight up in the air! "Hellraiser"'s seen enough and he's coming in- OH! "HELLRAISER" TAKEN DOWN BY A MISSILE DROPKICK FROM OUT OF *NOWHERE* FROM TRUTH!!

[Deyo]- Truth now pummeling away at Carson!!! And- YES!!! Kent calling for the bell!!!  TSK takes a loss and will be facing the AngelKillers in a SCAFFOLD MATCH at Zero Tolerance!!!! The Tag Team Championship match at Zero Tolerance just got a WHOLE lot more interesting!

[Richards]- And not only that, Dave: But they'll ALSO be viewing the Triple Threat Championship from box seats along with "The Natural", 'cause they're now BANNED from ringside for that match!! And what a loss: Justice wasn't even the legal man! "Livewire" and "Hellraiser" just IRATE at referee Danny Dickson!! A turning of the tables on the champs, if I do say so myself! That Justice kid may have a future for himself in the sport!

[Deyo]- You're absolutely right Rick! And things just keep getting better for the Pay Per View spectacular!! We're out of time tonight folks, but we'll be seeing you at Zero Tolerance! Tickets are sold out, but we'll be seeing Christina Kelburn at ringside flown in  all the way from New Zealand for the event of a LIFETIME thanks to her innovativly DANGEROUS Six-Man Extreme Rules match! Don't wait a minute longer folks: Call your local cable distributors and order Zero Tolerance TODAY! For Rick Richards, this is David Deyo saying GOODNIGHT from PW Throttle!
