(Sweet Melissa strolls down the hall, shoulder strap dress which covers both breasts adequately then cuts to a sharp V at her navel. She carries a 6-pack of Miller Genuine Draft in each hand, although her well muscled abdomen makes it apparent she’s been doing more crunches than 12 ounce curls. She walks to the door marked Zieba, takes a deep breath, knocks and, upon being told to do so, enters.)
MELISSA: Hey Erik, you’ve been so kind upon my return I was wondering if I could have a word, to go over a few things and thank you for all you’ve done.
EZ: Well now that’s what I call a perfect 10, a nine and a half with twelve cold MGD’s. Have a seat.
(Zieba who is seated in a recliner motions towards the hard back chair in front of his desk. Melissa sets the beer down bending over slightly in front of him, as he raises an eyebrow at the gesture. Melissa pulls two bottles out and pops the tops. She ignores the chair he has pointed to and props herself on the arm of his recliner. Zieba puts down the clipboard he was working on and takes the beer trying not to smile or look surprised, failing at both attempts.)
EZ: What should we talk about Melissa??
(Melissa glances into his lap)
M: Oh, anything that pops up. (smiles, takes a swig of her MGD, then leans on EZ’s shoulder.) Erik, I signed to come back here to make a name for myself separate from Eddy Love, and you helped me put myself in that position.
EZ: The way you’re looking today, I can think of a few other positions I’d li....(Melissa seductively puts her finger to his lips to hush him)
M: There’ll be plenty of time for play later, In fact Erik, it’s been a while since I’ve had a date.... if it’s not too forward I was wondering if you’d take me to the EWI awards show.... you know unless you have other plans.
EZ: Two things I’d love to have on my arm at that show, and that’s a fine lady that looks like yourself and somebody who might piss off Eddy Love..
M: Oh Erik, I’m so relieved... I’ve been sweating for days about whether you’d be interested in me. (She leans in putting her arm around his neck her right breast almost brushing his cheek.) I hate to mix pleasure with business Erik, but I thought maybe I had a few ideas you might like.
EZ: So far Melissa, you and I are right on the same page.
M: Eddy hasn’t made too many friends around here and he’s still beat up from Rob Sampson’s attack in Los Angeles as well as the beating Jade and Cancer put on him..... I was wondering if you forced him into the ring against Aho and Sampson in Greensboro , if he could even find a partner and if he does it couldn’t be of any quality.... I mean can’t you see it Eddy Love teaming with some newbie against those two.
EZ: Whoa, Aho and Sampson?? they don’t even like each other, they’ll never go for that.
M: Well they both hate Eddy even more than each other, they both should want to stand up for EWI against this SSN crap and if a certain leader of the EWI (she strokes his hair) tells them they’ll wrestle together.... what choice would they have.
EZ: Aho/Sampson vs. Love and a partner of his choice in North Carolina, Eddy Love country. Now that you mention it. It doesn’t sound bad at all.
M: Could I sit with you for that match?
EZ: I certainly don’t see why not.
M: One more thing.... my men the Idols are sorta getting lost in this whole EWI/SSN thing. I mean I know you got Tony a TV shot tonight, and we are grateful..... but Erik these Idols are something special and for me to escape Eddy’s shadow I need something more than a TV title holder, (sadly) I mean he’s already come in here and won that Federation belt without me.(Drops her head)
EZ: So what did you have in mind?
M:. How about the Vital Idols vs. Dark Carnival... and bill it as the main event over Aho/Sampson vs. Love’s team in Greensboro?
EZ: Nobody’s gonna buy that.... as good as the Idols are Melissa and as hot as Dark Carnival is Aho is Extreme World Champ, Eddy is Federation champ and Sampson is one of the top draws in the world.
M: Nobody has to buy it but you Erik....... do it the EZ way...... and do you think you could appoint a referee who might would be a little more on the high flying side of the rules?
EZ: Who might that be??
M: I’m sure you can came up with a great idea sugar..... I mean after all you came up with Sampson and Aho vs. Eddy Love..... you came up with the Vital Idols vs. Dark Carnival in the main event. You’re a genius, a big sexy genius. Now I’ve gotta go get Tony ready.... you think about it and I’m looking forward to that awards show.(Kisses Erik on the cheek and exits the room as EZ looks exasperated)
EZ: Oh yeah. LIfe is about to get good....


[The camera cuts to Charlotte Coliseum right in Charlotte, North Carolina. As the camera pans around it picks up tens of thousands of screaming EWI fans waiving their signs and sounding off with several chants for their favorite stars. The camera then cuts to Brett Sanders and Garrett MacFarland who are in the announcer's booth getting ready for tonight's action.]
BS: Welcome one and all to the FIRST installment of the EWI’s Southern Comfort tour that kicks off right here in breathtaking Charlotte! Welcome to HEATWAVE! Joining me as always is the man on my right Gary McFarland. Gary....what's going on?
GM: How about that heated scene between Melissa and Zieba? Heatwave? Oh sweet baby daddy Jesus I can tell it's gonna be a sex romp of a show tonight!
BS: Well as my partner tries to calm down coming up first .......
(Detroit Rock City plays over the arena's sound system. Ripper Robertson and Max Mayhem, The Motor City Maniacs, make their way out to the ring. The crowd boos loudly. Ripper is wearing a HoA T-shirt and blue jeans. Max Mayhem is wearing a Motor City Maniacs T-shirt and jean shorts. Both men get into the ring and look out at the crowd. Ripper reaches in his back pocket and pulls out two microphones and hands one to Max.)
Robertson: Why don't you all just shut the hell up.
(Crowd gets louder.)
Mayhem: Simply Stunning, You can consider yourself the two luckiest piece of (Censored) on the planet. You walk out of the match with the championships, but deep down inside we both know that you were hit with the Motor City Death Drop and the end was near.
Robertson: You know it doesn't really matter what happened in the match. For once the wool was pulled over the Maniacs eyes, but we're not going to make excuses. At Bad Blood, Simply Stunning, you set out to chase down a childhood dream. Well the American dream is about to become your worst nightmare. We're demanding that we get our rematch. Those titles around your waist is a joke.
("Tribe" by P.O.D. blares over the arena speakers and Tribal Instinct enter along with Utopia. The trio stands upon the entrance ramp staring at the Maniacs. They are wearing matching black cargo pants and black Tribal Instinct shirts with the phrase "Your Tribe - Our Tribe" on the back.)
Mayhem: What the hell do you three want.
(Trypp receives a mic from a stage hand.)
TW: What do we want? What the hell do you think we want? Listen here Maniacs. Last week at Bad Blood, we went through Hell to win a triple threat match with some of the most dangerous men in this business. We proved last week that we were the only true Team in that ring.
U: Okay Maniacs. You think you deserve a shot at that title? Simply Stunning beat you fair and square. You two never were the types to admit something like that though, were you? No no. These boys went through Hell to get where they are and no amount of whining and bitching is going to change that. You've had your time in the sun, Maniacs. Step aside. The Time of the Tribe is approaching.
('Wildchild' by Renegade Master cues up and Owner Zieba appears on the Extreme Screen).
EZ: You know, I've got my problems with SSN and the four of you want to spew about who gets a shot at Simply Stunning. Now granted The Motor City Maniacs are the number one contenders and they should get the shot, but at the same time Tribal Instinct did get past two other teams in the Hell in a Cell match at Bad Blood ... so what should I do. Oh I have an idea. How about this. You two will start a best of three series matches starting tonight and the winner will face the EWI Tag Team Champions at Domination II our very next Pay Per View. How does that sound?
Mayhem: That's fine with us.
EZ: Good. Then you guys better gear up cause tonight is gonna kick it off.
U: It's a deal. Maniacs, prepare to be Sacrificed.
(Tribal Instinct exits the ring and head to the back. The Motor City Maniacs soon follow.)
BS: How about that Garrett? Zieba just signed a best of three series match between The Motor City Maniacs and Tribal Instinct with the winner meeting the Tag Champions at Domination II!
GM: Didn't I tell you that this show was gonna be hot? And don't get me wrong cause these two teams have a long history and it's about to kick off once again tonight.
BS: But coming up first we've got Major Deluxe taking on Angelus.
GM: He picked up a big, and I mean huge win, over Darkness and Corleone, but Angelus is no slacker. This should be good.
BS: Folks let's head straight to the ring for our first match of the night!
(the lights in the arena dim as a bluish green glow begins eminating and filling the arena. NIN's "Wish" cues up and the bluish green lights begin strobing and as soon as the "Wish there was something real, wish there was something true" part comes in Discord and Angelus emerge from the entrance. Angelus is wearing black combat pants, knee high engineer boots, a tight long sleeve black shirt, a belt with double silver grommetts, a sorta small gothic cross, and a long black trench coat. He's also cut his long hair, it's now short and slicked back. Discord's wearing black thigh high hose with grey stripes, a black tattered dress, black lipstick, black eyeshadow, with lots of white foundation. She has her hair falling down the sides of her face rather than greased back, black thigh high panty hose with hole's and finger holes cut in em on her arms, and goth boots. Angelus and Discord make there way down the ailse. Angelus steps up onto the side of the ring and holds the bottom rope for Discord. Angelus then springs over the top rope and He runs to the corner and jumps onto the second rope. He then puts his fingers into the shape of two guns and sticks them in his mouth as he yells to the crowd there's a rather loud fan pop. He comes off the rope and to the center of the ring he then grabs Discord and they lick at each other making there tongues touch. He walks to the ropes and again holds the bottom rope as Discord exits the ring. Angelus keeps his trench coat on)
Major Deluxe grabs Angelus by the throat as he enters the ring. Deluxe tosses Angelus into the corner and throws lefts and rights, sending Angelus down to one knee. Major Deluxe turns and screams at the crowd, as Major Deluxe turns around, Angelus hits him with a low blow. The ref warns Angelus, who ignores the ref and bounces off the ropes and hits Major Deluxe with a running clothesline. Major Deluxe wobbles, but doesn't fall down. Angelus shoots off the ropes again and hits a cross body block, The ref counts. One..Kickout.
BS: Angelus is going to have to use his speed here, if he expects to get a win.
GM: Major Deluxe had better worry about what happened to Kin Hiroshi at Bad Blood.
Angelus kneels across Major Deluxe's chest and pounds on his forehead. Major Deluxe just throws Angelus off of him. Major Deluxe gets to his feet and Angelus comes off with another Cross body block, but Major Deluxe catches him in mid air. Major Deluxe with a fall away slam and Angelus lands hard on the mat. Major Deluxe steps out of the ring and reaches under the ring and sets up a table. Major Deluxe gets back in the ring and pulls Angelus over toward the ropes. He picks up in a powerbomb, but Discord stands in front of the table. Major Deluxe yells for her to move, but she doesn't budge.
BS: What is she doing? She's going to get hurt.
GM: She's standing up for her man, that's what she's doing.
Major Deluxe turns and powerbombs Angelus in the ring. Major Deluxe steps out of the ropes. Major Deluxe steps out of the ropes and grabs Discord by the hair. Major Deluxe places her head between his knees and grabs her by the waist, suddenly three Junon soldiers come out and they grab Discord. Major Deluxe glares at them and doesn't see Angelus is up on his feet. Angelus bounces off the far ropes and hits a suicide dive over the top rope hitting Major Deluxe in the back. Angelus rolls Major Deluxe back in the ring. Angelus goes up to the top rope and hits a flying elbow drop. Angelus with the pin. One...Two...Three.
BS: Angelus wins with an assist from Discord.
GM: Don't look now, but I don't think this is finished.
(Irvine and Alucard enter the ring. Angelus yells instructions to them, They grab Deluxe and hold him. Angelus is giving him a tongue lashing. Angelus then slaps Major Deluxe in the head. Major Deluxe lunges forward, but Irvine and Alucard have a firm grasp on him. Angelus gives the sign for the Angel's Touch, when suddenly the lights go out. "The Day the World Went Away" plays loudly. When the lights come back on. A man is seen perched on the top turn buckle. This man is wearing a black trench coat. Angelus is kneeling down on one knee. The Crowd doesn't know what's going on. Angelus grabs a microphone.)
Angelus: Deluxe, not only are you an embarrassment to the EWI, but you're an embarrassment to the fans!
(fans cheer)
Angelus: I told you that you were no match for me and I proved it! You are most unfortunate that you're too much of a damn idiot to ever pay attention! Now, Tattoo...I mean Hiroshi, I said that victory was not my intention when I fought you, and you are walking around celebrating your DQ win. Well, you must be pretty damn pathetic celebrating that! Also, if you think what was done to you, compliments of me...........
(Angelus holds the mic out, pointing to the man beside him. Fans begin screaming and cheering)
Angelus: .....and Ruiner....if you think that was bad....well as the saying goes....you ain't seen nothing yet!
(Angelus hands the mic over to Ruiner)
Ruiner: In the beginning.....there was a group. Tonight, it will be reborn.
(fans begin screaming and cheering, for they know of the group)
Ruiner: The mark has been made. This is the new beginning. Nothing will ever be the same. The...Mechanical Animals are alive once more....
(Ruiner stops to let the crowd loose. After they finally settle, he starts again)
Ruiner: Hiroshi was the first victim, Deluxe the second, and Ratzilla will be the third later on....but I assure you, he WON'T be the last!
(Suddenly from the crowd three men enter the ring. One is carrying a baseball bat, one a chair and one a crowbar. The man with the bat knocks Ruiner off the top turnbuckle onto the floor. The man with crowbar hits Irvine and Alucard, Releasing Major Deluxe. The man with the chair swings at the Junon guards as they try to enter the ring. Angelus charges at Major Deluxe, who lifts a boot and kicks him in the face. Discord enters the ring and pounds on Major Deluxe's back. Major Deluxe just turns and grabs her by the hair. Major Deluxe picks her up in a power bomb and tosses her from the ring apron through the table at ringside. Major Deluxe grabs the microphone laying in the ring.)
Deluxe- You see angelus, Your boys are not capable, This is a new era this man is pain, These two guys are the Jury Vicious and Rage. We are the most vicious force in the ewi. We are TEAM IMPACT. This is just the start. We are going to make your lives a living hell forever. You see wait I just got a idea, Hey you announcers you have been, Not thinking I am capable, Of being here in the ewi, Hey Rage go get my the little monkey. (Rage goes out and grabs the ring announcer puts him face to face with Deluxe)
Deluxe- You don't think I am capable, Well bite on this, (Deluxe nails him in the ribs eight times with a bat, Rage drops him. Then Deluxe puts the WHIPE OUT on him.)
Deluxe- See you will think next time, Before you open that trap, Hey Angelus you said if I talked bad about discord gain, I would have to answer to you, HA HA HA HA HA well you look a little down and out. So Pain go get that bitch, Well take her home to a real cord.
(Pain goes to the broken table and puts her on his shoulder)
Deluxe- Now Angelus, I am going to take Discord home, Trust me Deluxe will not be nice, I guess the neighbors are going to here, Alot of scramming from her tonight.
Suddenly Ten Junon Soldiers hit the ring, One of them hits Pain and grabs Discord and pulls her from harms way. The soldiers send Team Impact up the ramp. The Soldiers then help Angelus and Ruiner to their feet.
BS: What the hell just happened?
GM: I have no idea. All I know is we have two new factions in the EWI. Team Impact and The Mechanical Animals.
BS: Something tells me , we aren't seeing the last of these two groups. Fans, We need a breather, We'll be ring back.
BS: Folks, coming up next we have the first of three double debut matches and this one should be really exciting for it pits Kayos against the legend in the making Austin Canon.
GM: From what I understand this Canon kid has one heck of a résumé already. He's beaten the likes of Eli Flair and Kevin Powers in clean pins. The sky is the limit for the man from Sin City.
BS: Folks let's go to the ring for our first debuts of the night.
As Canon made his way down the rampway to the cheers of the fans the only one that didn't give praise was the man in the ring Kayos. Once the match started Kayos was soon to find out why Austin is the legend in the making for Austin quickly turned up the pace in a matter of seconds. Unleashing a flurry of moves such as bringing Kayos down with a swinging neckbreaker and then following it up with a leg drop from the top rope one could very well see why Austin Canon is for real, but in true fashion even the best can make mistakes. As Canon was trying to suplex Kayos out of the ring, Kayos caught a lucky break and managed to hook Canon's head and bounce him off the ropes back into the ring. From there Kayos was on the assault hitting Canon with such moves as a side walk slam in the center of the ring and then following it up with a German suplex for a pin count, but only a two count was made. Towards the five minute mark Kayos tried to set up for his finisher Hell on Earth, but Canon countered with a Face Buster breaking the hold and Canon took advantage of the few seconds he managed to swipe from Kayos. With Kayos dazed Canon snuck around and caught him with a running bulldog which dropped Kayos face first on the canvas. Then from there Canon went for his finisher the Canon Bomb and the cover. Three taps later and it was over.
BS: An impressive debut for Austin Canon picking up his first win in EWI. How about that Garrett?
GM: The kid is good and strong, but he has to remember that he's in the EWI now and slacking is not the name of the game. Eventually, down the line, he's gonna come across someone that will make a name for himself at his expense and that will be Canon's true test.
BS: Well the action doesn't stop there because coming up next, and moving right along, we've got the second of the three double debut matches coming up.
GM: What no break?
BS: Apparently not.
GM: Well damn and just when I wanted to get my drink on.
BS: You don't even drink.
GM: Hey. Pepsi does the body good.
BS: Of course it does.
GM: (to himself) Especially when it's got a little sumthin sumthin in the mix with it.
BS: Anyways we're about to move into our next match where Justin Sane is about to get one on one with 'The Southern Fox' Zero.
GM: Zero? Justin Sane? Didn't they used to be in this league? Why are they getting debut matches?
BS: No Garrett these are different people. People can have the same name and be different people ya know.
GM: Oh really? So there's another Garrett McFarland runnin around?
BS: I fear the thought.
GM: Alright!
BS: Folks let's get to the action in the ring.
As the hometown favorite Zero made his way to the ring he already saw the signs welcoming him back home. From 'Zero is our Hero' to 'Zero is our Hot Fox!' one could tell that Zero enjoyed the reception, but once he got to the ring the party stopped for the seven foot plus giant that awaited him was in no mood for celebration. As the bell rang business was quick at hand as Sane lunged for his opponent, but the quickness of The Southern Fox kept him from gaining the upper advantage. Trying to catch Sane off-guard Zero always ran, but also hit with a series of moves such as SEVERAL chops and punches along with side kicks, but these had little or no effect on the big man from St. Louis and eventually it showed for in an instant Zero made an error and Justin Sane took over. Hitting with a chokeslam and then following it up with a running lariat Zero was just about out and Sane could sense it. As Sane whipped Zero into the ring corner he was about to follow up with a monster splash, but Zero managed to bring both boots to the big man's face and stagger him just enough so that Zero could hop on the top turnbuckle and connect with a tornado DDT bringing down Justin Sane for the first time. Wasting no time Zero quickly runs to the ropes and leaps off with his finisher The Fox Drop, a springboard moonsault, hitting Sane square and hooking him up for the cover and win.
BS: What a win for The Southern Fox! He came across HUGE odds and fared quite well.
GM: When you're in your hometown fighting in front of all your brothers and sisters then chances are you're gonna win. And you know Zero is related to everyone here. Hell all their DNA is the same.
BS: It is not!
GM: Damn family tree probably finsihes off in a stump.
BS: Would you stop. Folks moving right along.....
GM: Still no break?
BS: Apparently not.
GM: DAMN ZIEBA! I would like to go take a piss ya know.
BS: Actually it's SSN's call.
GM: Oh really? Well Mr. Gottfried, if I may, might I have a few moments to use the latrine facilities?
BS: Boy it doesn't take you long to lick the hand that pays you does it?
GM: Of course not.....HEY! That wasn't nice.
BS: Sad but true. Anyway up next we have Ratzilla going up against a man we've already seen tonight and he is The Ruiner.
GM: The man who helped put Kin Hiroshi out of action. The Stelth of Darkness and The Silence of the Lambs....
BS: The silence of the what?
GM: Hey when I have to go to the bathroom I'll say anything just to break way now move this match along.
BS: Folks, for Garrett's sake, let's go to the ring.
The lights in the arena go out. The only light left is from the concession stands area and the sparks of lighters from the crowd. "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails slowly begins to play. The ring and rampway is then lighted red. As soon as the lines of the song "I will let you down/I will make you hurt" finish, fire that nearly touches the ceiling erupt from the ringposts and "Wish" by Nine Inch Nails very violently takes over and begins blasting throughout the arena. Ruiner appears from behind the curtains and fire erupts down the ramp as he storms towards the ring. Once inside the ring, Ruiner stretches out in a crucifixion-like pose and fire erupts once again from the ringposts. The arena lights slowly come back and Ruiner is standing in his corner waiting for Ratzilla to show. And, as Ratzilla slowly makes his way to the ring, the bell sounds and the match is underway. As Ruiner tries to take the early advantage he is stopped by a lariat from Ratzilla and the man from Portland starts to take control. Bringing down Ruiner with a Mafia kick and following it up with a frog splash it is easy to see how Ratzilla could be in control considering his size and ring skill, but all was for not because when Ratzilla went for a Bubba cutter Ruiner managed to block it and reverse it into a reverse DDT. From there Ruiner nailed Ratzilla with a short-arm clothesline and quickly followed up with a frontflip legdrop from the top rope. Back and forth Ratzilla and the Mechanical Animal member fought, but in the end it was Ruiner that caught Ratzilla with a Senton Bomb and quickly followed it up with his finisher Misery for the submission win.
BS: Altough it was his second time out here it was his first win of the night and for EWI. How about it Garrett?
GM: It was a close match, but once he locked in his finisher Misery it was all over. NOW can we bo to a break?
BS: Well from what I see ... yes. Yes we can go to a break.
GM: THANK GOD!
BS: But when we return we've got The Lost Souls taking on The Brothers Pain...NEXT!
[As the camera goes to commercial images of EWI's next show, Shockwave in Greensboro, begin to come across the screen.]
(More Human than Human plays over the PA System. From behind the curtain, Cole Steele followed by Ice emerge. Cole Steele is wearing a blue silk shirt and dress pants. Ice is wearing a WWCD? T-shirt and jeans. The crowd boos loudly, but Cole ignores them and waves as he walks to the ring. Once in the ring, Cole gets the microphone and begins to speak.)
Steele: Thank You..Thank You....You finally got what you all needed. A hero and a role model. It is my pleasure being the one man that you look up to. (Crowd boos get louder.) Tonight, I've got a lot to talk about and I just want to let my fans know that everything I do is in their best interest.
(Crowd begins to boo and Cole acts as if he's wiping a tear from his eye.)
Steele: Thanks. It really touches my heart to hear all the support that I'm getting. Now I guess a few of my skecptics, yes I know there's one or two out there. You want to know why a man of dignity and itegrity would turn his back on his friends in the HoA. My actions were for my fans. I didn't want my fans to associate me with thugs and losers. Look what the HoA stands for. First we have the human Cancer stick, Ash, out here promotiing smoking on television. Doesnt' he know that the young fans watch our show and that seeing him smoking will only make them feel that it's ok to smoke. Then there's the Motor City Maniacs. The most destructive team in wrestling? No...They were nothing in the Nth without Cole Steele and they'll fizzle out here in the EWI now that I've gone. But I am not out here to talk about the idiots in the HoA. I'm out here to call out a certain champion. He knows who he is....This man has brought shame to the title that he carries. The fans hate this man and want a real role model and hero to bring respect back to that title. This man? Brad Striker..The title I speak of..The Intercontiental Championship.
(Ice whispers something to Cole and Cole looks at him funny)
Steele: This man thinks that he's a role model and hero? This man can't fill the shoes of Cole Steele. We all know the fans love and respect me. (Crowd starts chanting " You Suck" ) Listen to them, They're chanting...You're the best...I mean it really touches my heart to hear that. Anyway, Mr. Striker, I know that you have no dignity and that you look at me and fear runs through your veins. You can already feel that IC title slipping through your fingers and we haven't even faced each other yet. Brad Striker, You have tarnished a great title, it's time to remove you from that title and bring it back to the respectability it deserves. I am the man that will do that. I am the man that oozes dignity. Your days as a EWI champion are few....The true Role Model and Hero to the fans will strike down upon you and you can say nothing about it. Tonight, I'm demanding you put that title on the line against me at the PPV. Are you a coward? Will you accept my challenge? You will or you will be labeled...wait..you already are a coward. Anyway, I await your decision.
(Cole Steele drops the microphone as More Human than Human starts back up as Ice and Cole leave the ring together.)
BS: Well how about that? Cole Steele just called out the EWI Intercontinental Champion Brad Striker for Domination II.
GM: And why shouldn't he? After what he did to The Motor City Maniacs and Ash, along with alligning himself with SSN, I wouldn't expect less. Just think of it. 'Triple X' Cole Steele your new Intercontinental Champion. It has a nice ring.
BS: I suppose it does, but that remains to be seen, but coming up next we have the returning team of The Brothers of Pain taking on The Lost Souls.
GM: And The Lost Souls they are. With The Brothers of Pain, along with Amplified, returing to the EWI it is safe to say that The St. Louis Calab-O is once again at full strength, but do they have enough to get past the veterans?
BS: Well we're about to find out as we head to the ring and see this in action.
With both teams making their way to the ring the bell sounds and the match is underway. As Max Punisher and Ricky Payne are the first to start out for their team and quickness is the name of the game here. Trying to get a feel for eachother it was Punisher that won the battle catching Ricky with a missile dropkick that brought Ricky down. Punisher then followed up with a shooting star press, but took too long for Ricky managed to move out of the way and Punisher hit square on the canvas. Ricky then capitalized hitting Punisher with a standing spinning heel kick dropping Punisher once again. With the hot tag Ricky sent Tommy in and he picked up Punisher in a gorilla press slam sending him flying over to his corner when PacKHouse hit the tag then came in. Trying their test of strength it was Tommy that won and finished him off spinning him around for a German suplex and a pin, but managed to get a two count out of it. After the five minute mark it was all Pain as Ricky and Tommy cleaned house inside of the ring sending PacKHouse to the outside so they could focus on Max Punisher. As Tommy picked up Punisher he hit him with a backbreaker and held the hold so that Ricky could climb to the top rope and hit with a guillotine legdrop across the Punisher's throat completing their finisher Six Feet Under, rolling him up, and getting the win.
BS: An impressive win for the returning Brothers of Pain wouldn't you say Garrett?
GM: They're looking good, but they'll have to work their way up the ranks again so that they can prove themselves once more.
BS: Well coming up next we've got......
["Cowboy" by Kid Rock cues up over the loud speakers as the top of the entrance ramp erupts in a shower of pyro. The audience immediately recognizes the opening notes to the song and delivers a thunderous applause as one "Furious" Jesse Falcon enters the arena wearing a long leopard skin trenchcoat, a leopard skin cowboy hat and yellow lensed sunglasses. He poses for the audience as he soaks in the cheers.)
FJF: Hello fans!
[The applause is deafening.]
FJF: Well, before we get this little shindig underway, I just want to say a few things. Now right now, we're supposed to have a Title match between the Darkness and the champion (and a man that I've beaten!), Inferno! Now, tell me something? What has ol' Darkey done to deserve a title shot? Hell, I've beaten every cruiser in this business... well, except Eric Davis. But ANYWAY! I don't think it's very fair that a loser like the Darkness gets a title shot while the deserving man has the responsibility of kicking some rookie's ass!
[The crowd cheers insanely.]
So here's my proposal. I mean, I know that The Dragon has already issued a challenge to Inferno for the title at Shockwave in Greensboro. Here's what I'm thinking: After Inferno kicks Darkey's ass here tonight in Charlotte...
[The crowd goes nuts.]
FJF: ...he goes on to Shockwave. Whoever wins the match between Flamer and the Dragon goes on to Heatwave in Greenville to face....
[The crowd cheers in anticipation as Falcon looks around at the fans.]
FJF: (grinning) ... The Furious One! JESSE FALCON!
[The crowd goes absolutely insane as Falcon drops the mic and exits back up the ramp as "Cowboy" plays throughout the colesium.]
BS: What was that all about? That might be something to look forward to.
GM: You better bet your britches.
BS: What to we have next?
GM: A wrestling match, duh!
BS: Shut up!
(The lights go out)
BS: What going on?
GM: The lights went out.
BS: SHUT UP!
GM: Well, they did!
("Mudshovel" by Staind goes through the arena and down the ramp, the 6ft tall Darkness makes his way to the ring. Step by step the crowd grows more and more to hate him. A big explosion at the top of the ramp and out plays "Pollution" by Limp Bizkit, Inferno with his big pants and white shirt, he makes his way to the ring as the crowd chants his name. The camera views the crowd chanting and then it stops on a little boy standing next to his father and there holding up an "Inferno is my hero" sign. The camera goes back to the ring and you hear the bell.)
Both men are walking around looking at each other with looks of hate. They lock up and Inferno gets the upper hand with a headlock. Inferno is holding Darkness with all his might but the Darkness pushes Inferno into the ropes and gets caught with a massive Closeline. Darkness picks Inferno up by his hair and throws him into the turnbuckle, The Darkness puts Infernos butt on the top turnbuckle and then climbs up to the top, The Darkness puts his arm around his neck and pushes off and gets Inferno with a suplex.
BS: Look at all this action.
GM: I've seen more action at your house and you still live with your mother.
BS: Shut up you numb nut.
GM: What the hell is a numb nut?
BS: Your a numb nut, numb nut!
GM: Lets just get back to the match.
The Darkness is got the upper hand, he is given Inferno some serious punches to the head. All of a sudden Inferno falls to his knees and hits Darkness right in his jewels, the ref wasn't even looking
GM: I like that shirt, its cool.
BS: Will you quit talking to the ref, he might miss something.
GM: Like what?
Inferno gets to his feet and pulls up the Darkness and gets him with a DDT. Inferno climbs to the top turnbuckle and does a Asai Moonsault landing right on Darkness's stomach. Darkness rolls over holding his gut but Inferno is on a roll and picks Darkness up and gets him with a double arm DDT. Inferno hopes to his feet and gives the crowd a little grin and the crowd goes nuts. Inferno picks Darkness up and puts his head between his legs and pulls him up for a powerbomb but Darkness messes that up by attacking Inferno's head with all of his might. Both men are down and the ref starts counting.
BS: I wonder who's going to get up first.
GM: Well they better hurry the ref his almost done counting.
The Darkness hopes to his feet and pulls up Inferno and hits him hard with a powerbomb. Darkness climbs the top turnbuckle and gives Inferno a Senton bomb.
GM: The Darkness is really taking control of this fight.
BS: But wait who is that coming down the ramp?
GM: It looks like......it is, its Jesse Falcon.
BS: What's he doing here?
GM: I'm not sure but I bet he's here to cause trouble.
BS: We'll find out soon.
Jesse walks to the ring and grabs a chair. The ref isn't looking and Jesse roles in.
GM: I'm telling you that's one cool shirt.
BS: HEY! quit talking to the ref, he might miss something
GM: Like what?
The ref turns back to the fight and he sees Jesse knock The Darkness out cold with the chair. The ref tells them to ring the bell and The Darkness wins by DQ.
GM: This was a good match until the end.
BS: I thought the whole thing was good.
GM: You didn't even watch.
BS: Yes I did, Jesse did great in the match.
GM: Jesse didn't even fight.
BS: Well, I..I..It was a good match.
GM: Whatever you say numb nut!
BS: Well moving right along we've got Jesse Falcon trying his luck against recent newcomer Lance Colvin.
GM: Well we know all about Jesse, but Lance is still a big mystery. I'm seeing the surprise here tonight.
BS: Folks let's go to the ring for our next match of the night.
BS: Another impressive win for Falcon wouldn't you say Garrett?
GM: Oh never let it be said I don't think Falcon is all that, but his hopes to ever get a title in the EWI is really slim to none.
BS: Folks we've got ot cut away for a moment, but when we return it'll be Hellfighter taking on the Inferno Kevin Martinez! Don't go away!
