ACW: Against All Odds

August 10th, 2002

 

*) Opening Segment:
     - Against All Odds starts with The Brutal One coming out to the ring. He grabs the Mic and shares how happy he is to be the ACW SuperCrown champion. But in fact, this isn't a just a day that deals with the SuperCrown title, it deals with the beginning of a new chapter in professional wrestling, the ACW. The HCWF was wonderful, a place he called home for over 5 years, a place that saw him win titles, have historic matches, and most of all, make friends that will last a lifetime. Like the PBW did almost a month ago, today the HCWF retires, and with it, opens the door for ACW, one fed, one family, one goal: To change the face of professional wrestling like never before! ECW did it, but Vince killed it, he took the best thing to happen to wrestling and stripped it of all dignity and honor. ECW put Philly on the map as a city of Pro Wrestling, and now they are insulted at every turn by companies like CZW, 3PW and anyone else who walks into Viking Hall. CZW had the balls to put their letters on the wall, and I ripped them the fuck down! ECW was hardcore; ECW also had unbelievable talent the likes of which may never be duplicated. But the ACW will bring honor back to this sport. Now it's all just entertainment, but no more, from now on we work to make this city a center of pro wrestling again. What others have killed we will resurrect, PBW and HCWF, 2 of the best young groups ever to perform were brought together by fate, a destiny that no one can deny. Today marks the first step, from here we can only go up, from here will make history, and we will never forget where we came from.

But now on to the business at hand, On June 26th 2002, I became the ACW SuperCrown Champion by defeating Nicky Gunner and Casey McCrazie. Against all odds and tricks I still won. But tonight I have decided all these titles are too much for any man to hold. So, first of all, the Tag Team Turmoil match tonight, I am going to put up the ACW Tag Team Titles for the winners. Also, tonight in the triple threat match between Minion, "Joe", and my partner Azma, I will be putting up the Metro Title up for grabs. The PBW titles went back to their rightful owners and will forever belong to those PBW wrestlers that fought so hard to earn them. Right now, that leaves me with 3 titles, the World, Tri-State and New Jersey Championships.

With that, Shizzle leaves the announce position and comes into the ring and grabs the mic. Shizzle wants to know who the hell he thinks he is? The Brutal One can't just go around making policy here and frankly Shizzle is tired of his shit. What do you think? Do you think that you are the Hero Brutal One??? You are nothing; all you are is a piece of trash that thinks he is the greatest champion in the history of the HCWF/PBW/or ACW. So guess what…besides that, tonight you get to prove it. First of all, the HCWF New Jersey title is hereby retired by order of the Commissioner. The New Jersey title will stay with HCWF. Now as for the other 2 titles, which The Brutal One holds, well tonight, he will defend them both! You want to know how? Against whom? Well you shall find out, all you have to do is show up in this ring later on tonight. So enjoy your titles while you have them, because it's going to be a LONG night for The Brutal One. With that, The Brutal One steps right in Shizzle's face, but the Crew comes out and holds him and pulls him out of the ring. Shizzle laughs and heads back to the announce position.

1) P.E.P. Vs. BB Bruz Vs. Judas (w/ Heresy):
P.E.P. comes out first. As he usually does he grabs a mic and cuts a promo. First starts to yap at Shizzle about trying to screw both him and The Brutal One, but that it don't matter, cause PEP is walking out with a shot at a title and The Brutal One will walk out with all his gold! Now on to business as usual, first we got Kordell Stewart (or whatever you want to say) start to rip on him for a while. Then turn to Judas, a man who you must admit is impressive, but he's a man just like any other and can be beaten. So bring your asses and consider yourself warned! BB Bruz now enters; he looks mad as hell and charges the ring. He and PEP start to go at it. Now (hopefully can do the light thing), Judas' music hits. He is in no hurry to get to the ring, and slowly makes his way out with Cerebus, Minion, Opiate and Tempest. Cerebus and Tempest remove his jacket and Judas enters. The 3 men go at it. Nice match here. In the end it will go like this, basically BB and PEP will be going at it and Judas will look rather bored. Out of nowhere he snaps his fingers and "Heresy" storms the ring. They lay out both BB and PEP. Judas looks on, calls them off and they leave. The match then ends in a DQ; no one got the pin fall so no title shot.
Winner: DQ, No Contest

2) Jack “The Ripper” (w/ Destiny) Vs. Chaos – South Philly Street Fight:
     - Jack comes out first with Destiny. The ref immediately sends her to the back. Chaos then enters with Azma and Jewels; the ref quickly sends those 2 to the back as well. These two men do battle. This should be a pretty good match time wise. Hardcore in this one folks, use of weapons and fighting through the crowd encouraged. The ending will go like this, Chaos will have the upper hand, and out of nowhere MVP and Joe run out! They attack Chaos with Jack. The three men lay out Chaos and MVP hits the Air Canada Frog Splash. He and Joe then roll out and leave. Jack picks up Chaos and sets him up in the corner. He grabs a chair and runs at him, Chaos lifts his boot and kicks the chair into Jack's face! Chaos hits Jack with his finisher (whatever it is, lol) falls on him and gets the 3. MVP and Joe run out stunned and attack Chaos. Azma and The Brutal One run out and clear house.
Winner: Chaos

3) Falkon/Stax Pack Vs. Angel/Obsydian Vs. Cerebus/Opiate – ACW Tag Team Title Match:
     - Falkon and Stax Pack make it out first. Followed soon after by Angel and Obsydian who storm the ring! They start to go at it with Falkon and Stax Pack, and then (lights again one can hope) Cerebus and Opiate come out with Tempest, Minion and Judas. The people in the ring stop fighting and turn to look at Judas and "Heresy". Judas enters along with all of them. He doesn't remove his coat, but he just stares at Obsydian and Angel. Judas hands Minion a piece of paper and instructs him to give it to them. Minion walks over and hands it to Obsydian and Angel. They open it and have a look of shock on their face. Judas then looks at Falkon and Stax Pack, turns and leaves the ring with Minion. They both leave. Angel and Obsydian seem quite shaken as Cerebus and Opiate go to their corner. The match now begins. From here, Cerebus and Opiate will eliminate Falkon and Stax Pack convincingly. It is now down to Angel/Obsydian and Cerebus/Opiate. Back and forth for a while. Obsydian and Angel will go for a lot of submissions and Opiate/Cerebus will power out of them. The ending will go like this. Opiate and Cerebus holding the upper hand with Angel/Obsydian fighting back. Out of nowhere Judas and Minion come out. Judas orders Minion to grab the Tag Belts, which he does. Judas then walks up the steps or gets on the Apron; he looks at both Cerebus and Opiate and gives a thumb down symbol. Both Cerebus and Opiate drop their hands and stand still. Angel and Obsydian are shocked. They don't seem to know what to do, as Opiate and Cerebus stand motionless. Finally they walk over and hit their finishers and get the pin and the ACW Tag Team titles! Judas summons Minion and motions for the belts. He takes them and tosses them to a stunned Angel and Obsydian. Judas then claps once, with that, Opiate and Cerebus sit up and exit the ring. Judas stares at the new Tag Team champions, and leaves with Minion and Tempest. Angel and Obsydian look freaked out now, take the Tag Titles and slowly walk out.
Winner(s): Angel and Obsydian, new ACW Tag Team Champions

4) Joe “VIP” Vs. Minion Vs. Azma (w/ Jewels) – ACW Metro Title Match:
     - "Joe" makes his way out to the ring first. Then Azma comes out with Jewels. Now Minion makes his way out, but alone, no "Heresy" with him. Now I know that the people involved in this match have most of it planned out so all I will put here is do not kill yourselves here, lol. In the end, Azma will take the win and get the ACW Metro Title.
Winner: Azma, new ACW Metro Champion

5) Johnny G (w/ Shanna) Vs. Mr. Showtime – Loser Leaves ACW For A Year:
     - Johnny G enters first and grabs a mic. He gets on and says he wants to let everybody know that HE asked for this match. Mr. Showtime embarrassed him at the ToC by not showing up. Johnny G got injured during that event cause Mr. Showtime couldn’t pull his own weight. Frankly he is tired of carrying his punk ass and its time to see whom the better brother really is! Mr. Showtime comes out being cocky as usual. He gets in the ring and takes the mic. He says first of all, it’s not tough to tell which is the better brother. All you really have to do is ask Shanna, cause she knows. Fact is Mr. Showtime didn't feel like coming to the ToC and bailing his brother out like he always does, he is sick of Johnny G riding the coattails of his success. And he agrees, now its time to put all the questions to rest and settle this matter. With that, the 2 start to go at it. Good back and forth technical match with Shanna on the outside not sure whom to cheer for. In the end, Johnny G will pick up the victory and Showtime is out for a year.
Winner: The One Man Crime Spree Johnny G

6) The Brutal One Vs. Myke Victor Payne – Two Fall ACW Tri-State Title and ACW World Title Lumberjack Strap Match:
     - The Brutal One's music hits. He comes to the ring not knowing whom he is going to face. Shizzle gets in the ring. Shizzle goes on to say how happy he is The Brutal One became SuperCrown Champion...but the fact is its his fed, and he cant stand the fact that The Brutal One holds gold. So now The Brutal One is introduced to his opponent.... M.V.P....the man he screwed out of a tag title shot at the Charity show! Since The Brutal One holds 2 titles, this match will be 2 falls. The first fall will decide the ACW Tri-State title, while the 2nd will decide the ACW World Heavyweight Championship. The Brutal One seems fine with this, as he has full confidence in his abilities. But wait, Shizzle has a little more to say. Since The Brutal One is so sure of himself. Why not make this match.... no DQ? And since its no DQ, we wouldn’t want anyone helping The Brutal One win, so The Crew is BANNED from ringside, if they even step through the curtain, The Brutal One is stripped of both titles! The Brutal One looks all ready to go, as he says he doesn’t need help. Shizzle laughs and says he wants as much of this match to stay in the ring as possible, so it will not only be 2 falls, not only no DQ...but a Lumberjack Strap match!! And lets Meet the Lumberjacks...Jack The Ripper, Joe, Cerebus, Opiate, Minion, BB Bruz, Mr. Showtime, Tempest, Destiny, Falkon, Stax Pack...Brutal One, your time in the light is over.... Shizzle leaves the ring.

The Match starts; MVP and The Brutal One dance around a little, while The Brutal One watches the lumberjacks. They lock up, The Brutal One locks in a head lock, MVP pushes off the ropes, goes for a shoulder block but is knocked down, The Brutal One runs against the Ropes, MVP goes low, Brutal One jumps over, hits the ropes, MVP goes for the leapfrog, is caught and hit with a stiff Spine Buster. The Brutal One picks up MVP, whips him into the corner and does some chops. MVP thumbs The Brutal One in the eyes and puts him in the corner, chops and does his back flip attack. He then goes for a splash on The Brutal One; he moves and hits the neck breaker. Once The Brutal One gets up he is grabbed and pulled out of the ring. The Lumberjacks start to beat the Hell out of him. They roll him back in and MVP takes advantage. Do some moves here. MVP whips The Brutal One into the ropes and the Lumberjacks lowball the top rope and he falls out. MVP walks over and talks to the ref (the ref is ANTI-Brutal One, counts fast for MVP and slow for The Brutal One). While he and the ref talk in the corner, the lumberjacks throw The Brutal One back in and all pile in the ring. A lot of them beat him and hit finishers. MVP climbs the top rope while the Lumberjacks hold The Brutal One's legs, and he hits the Air Canada Frog Splash!!! MVP covers The Brutal One and gets the 1-2-3 to win the ACW Tri-State Championship!!!
Winner of First Fall: Myke Victor Payne, new ACW Tri-State Champion

The ref raises his hand, but has to clear out the Lumberjacks so the 2nd fall can start, they all slide out and MVP goes for the pin again...he pulls The Brutal One up...no no, not time yet. He calls Jack into the ring and he brings a chair in. Jack Holds The Brutal One and hands MVP the Chair. MVP slams the chair into The Brutal Ones head. And again, he starts to go nuts with it!!! The Brutal One falls. MVP starts to get really cocky, Jack Pick up The Brutal One again and holds him while the lumberjacks look on. MVP nails The Brutal One again...but this time The Brutal One yells back...MVP goes to hit him again, and the same result...he goes again, The Brutal One ducks and Jack gets laid out. The Brutal One, by now a bloody mess, grabs MVP and hits The Brutal Bomb!! He starts to go nuts, slides to the outside and starts to beat the shit out of the Lumberjacks, laying all of them out. He gets back in the ring, hits a psycho driver! Picks him up and hits a fire-Thunder Driver. He sets up MVP sitting on the top, climbs the ropes and hits a Brutal Eclipse (high flipping top rope diamond cutter). After this both men are down. The Brutal One slides out and grabs a table. He sets it up caddy corner against the turnbuckle. The Brutal One goes to put him through with a powerbomb; MVP slides out of it and puts The Brutal One Through the table with a Legend bomb!!!

MVP calls for another Air Canada Frog Splash, he slowly climbs the turnbuckle and The Brutal One moves!! Both men stagger up, MVP goes to clothesline The Brutal One, he ducks and hits the Cradle Chokeslam!! The Brutal One falls on MVP, 1-2-Ouch.... the ref has something in his eye?!?!?!?! The Brutal One cannot believe it, he has no energy left...nothing. The Lumberjacks then try to get in the ring But The Brutal One fights them off...he turns to MVP who has gotten up, MVP goes for a Harlem sidekick, The Brutal One grabs him and hits another Cradle Chokeslam!! Instead of covering him, he turns to the ref and hits the Brutal Bomb!!! He drags the ref over, covers MVP and grabs the ref's hand and counts 1-2-3!!!!  The lumberjacks pile in at the command of Shizzle and beat the hell out of The Brutal One, with that, The Crew runs out and clears house since the match is over. All the lumberjacks and MVP leave with the Tri-State title while The Brutal One and the Crew and in the ring. Match Over.
