"Stick 'Em Up" by Quarashi cues over the loudspeakers as pyro blasts off, initialing the beginning of the best B-rate Wrestling show anywhere, High Calibur.

Road Dogg: Everyone welcome to High Calibur!

Akiko: We've got a great show for you tonight! And yours truely will be competing!

Road Dogg: Once again we're gonna show that even a B-rate can stand up to Mayhem and Riot Rulz!

"Privilage" by Incubus cues up as Kou Leifoh steps onto the ramp with Atlantis. The crowd cheers them on.

Capetta: The following match is for one-fall. Introducing first, from Dog Street, NYC, and weighing in at 190 lbs, accompanied by Atlantis Martell, Kou Leifoh!!

Dogg: Now this guy has shown incredible potential, despite the loss of his first match.

Akiko: Well, he almost won that, but was taken out by the experience factor of Colley Dogstar.

Dogg: It'll be interesting to see how he fairs tonight.

"Off the Hook" by POD now cues and Lexay hops out on stage, popping for the crowd. She gets a pretty huge cheer.

Capetta: And his opponant, from San Diego, CA, weighing at 121 lbs., Lexay Too Sexay!

Akiko: And here comes the opponant, from my current home town of San Diego. I just noticed. *sarcastic* But wow, we learned some shocking news about her, eh?

Dogg: Huh?

Akiko: The fact she's WAY into a little HL-...

Dogg: Please, Akiko. One, that's been run to death and Two, we don't need you as a nother Lawler.

It starts with the two circling each other, sizing each other up. they both throw a few testing kicks at each other before tying up. Kou manages to win out with a belly to belly suplex. She rolls through and rushes forward with a dropkick that knocks him to his back.

This goes on for a bit, both one-upping each other rather easilly. It's a martial arts matchin essence. Lexay then goes for her Mach 1. Kou ducks under and come up as her leg is above him, grabbing her in a splits position, her right leg over his shoulder and he hits a trapping suplex.

Akiko makes a lewd comment.

The match continues. Soon, Kou's dazed a bit. Lexay grabs him for the Lex Factor. Kou elbos her in the face and spins around, picking her up from behind for the Dog Street Special-- but she struggles out of it while she's being held above him, lands on his shoulders and gives him the Shake-O-Matic! She covers!

Atlantis runs around and tries to put his foot on the rope. He kicks out as well... but both were just after the ref counted the 1...2...3.

Winner: Lexay Too Sexay

Akiko: Man! I thought for sure he'd have it this time.

Dogg: It was really close though. Kou on his knees. He doesn't seem to beleive it, but he's getting up now. Shaking hands with Lexay.

Akiko: Eek! No! You don't know where that hand's been!

Dogg: ...

Akiko: Well, enjoy these commercials. When we return, I'll be replaced by a girl that tried to assassinate my Kyouki Shoujoness!! O_o!!

Dogg: .... still bitter?

"Conflict" by Disturbed starts to play, and the crowd boos loudly as Nova makes his way to the ring with his manager.

Dogg: We are back...and the N-O-V-A will be going up against my usual broadcast collegue in our next match!

Ayane: WHOO! Go Akiko! For Kyouki Shoujo! Take this ego-maniac down!

Dogg: Nova and Crysta making their way to the ring for this upcoming bout, and the crowd is none to happy to see him.

Ayane: Two reasons in my mind...going against a hometown favorite...and his jobbing to David Flair.

Dogg: Well, we all know now that he did it for the almighty dollar...and he's in the ring now to get ready...

"Cherry Bomb" by Shonen Knife
begins to play next, and the crowd erupts in cheers.

Dogg: LISTEN TO THE REACTION FOR THE A-KINKY-O! THEY LOVE HER HERE IN TOKYO!

Ayane: THEY LOVE HER EVERYWHERE, AND AS WELL THEY SHOULD!

Dogg: PERHAPS WE SHOULD BE QUIET FOR NOW AND SAVE OUR VOICES!

Ayane: GOOD IDEA!

The announcers remain silent as Akiko enters the ring...about to greet the crowd, when Nova attacks her right as she enters the ring.

Nova's pre-bell attack gives him an early advantage in the match, which he takes full advantage of with attacks to the legs and back of Akiko. Akiko manages to bounce back, however, when a clothesline attempt by Nova misses, Akiko kicking Nova in the small of the back. For a while, the match goes in Akiko's favor, until Crysta grabs Akiko's leg and makes her fall flat on her face.

The match progresses as such for a while, with Akiko getting an advantage at times, but Crysta managing to get involved and helping her man out. In the end, with Crysta distracting the referee, Nova manages to get the win after blasting Akiko in the head with the ring bell.

Ayane: ...nooo...Akiko lost...;_;

Dogg: Nova using his manager Crysta to help him gain any edge that he could...one has to wonder if he would have beaten Akiko without Crysta's help.

Ayane: No, he wouldn't. =P

Dogg: Heh...stay tuned people, there's more High Calibur to come!

**Commercial Break**

Dogg: Welcome back everyone! EAW High Calibur back
on the air, and up next we have what's sure to be a high-speed, high-impact
match. EAW and PWF double-contractee Kairi Lyger facing off against EAW's
very own Hurricane.

Ayane: Hard to really know who is the favorite in
this one. Hurricane's pretty popular over here, but Kairi has his large
share of fans, too.

Dogg: And dunno what Helms is gonna have his mind
on...he's pretty fixated on that Babedroid it seems.

Ayane: Well, why
would that interfere? ^_^

Dogg: Well...nevermind. And going back to the
ring...

STAND BACK!
THERE'S A HURRICANE
COMING
THROUGH!

We zoom around the arena as "Dare" cues up over the
loudspeakers. The crowd cheers loudly...

"The following match is
scheduled for one fall...introducing first...from Raleigh, North
Carolina...standing 6'0" and weighing in at 191 lbs...The
HURRICANE!!"

Hurricane gets the ring, and his music is cut off by
"Moonlight" by Showtaro..

Kairi also gets a great reaction, right on cue
with his music...

"And his opponent, from Kyoto, Japan...standing 5'11"
and weighing in at 240 pounds...Kairi Lyger!!!"

Kairi quickly heads to the
ring, and the bell rings...

Wrench of the arm pulls him up, then an
arm screw puts Hurricane on the defensive. Arm bar takedown into a
Fujiwara, but Hurricane gets to the ropes. Kairi drills his knee into the
elbow and shoulder joints, and picks him up for a rib breaker--Satellite
headscissors takes Kairi by surprise. Shotei blocked and reversed into a
backslide.

One count again, Kairi kicks out. Kairi goes for a
clothesline, but Helms ducks it, hitting a neckbreaker on Kairi. Goes up
top, and hits the Moonsault. Narrow 2 count, and Kairi kicks out.

Kairi
up, and Helms with chops to the chest...tosses him into the corner, and hits
a spinning heel kick. Helms climbs up top, and goes for the ten punches.
Kairi blocks #8, and tosses him up and onto the turnbuckle.

Tree of Woe
tied up, and Kairi with a dropkick into the stomach, as well as a sliding
knee dive. He reverse headlocks Hurricane, and hits a reverse suplex that
gets a HUGE reaction. 2 count made, but kick out by Helms.

Helms picked
up by Kairi, who hits a series of kicks to the chest, and arm wrenches and
hook kicks him. Whip to the corner, and Kairi superplexes Helms, then
floats over...another two count. Kairi goes up top, and leaps off for what
could be a cross-body--if Helms hadn't reacted quickly and caught him,
chokeslamming him quickly, although grabbing his arm in pain afterward.
Kairi kicks out at two. Helms hits a DDT, and goes out to the apron,
springboard somersault senton splashing him. He pulls up Kairi and drags
him towards the corner, and hits the DIAMOND DUST! Cover by Helms, but
Kairi manages to kick out.

A whip by Helms to the ropes, but Kairi
reverses, hits the far ropes, and Jackal Pounces Helms, devasting him with
Shoteis, then going for an armbar. Hurricane gets to the ropes, but Kairi
continues to work the arm, and sets up Hurricane with another Irish
Whip--catches the ropes with his good arm, and Kairi charges--leap frog over
by Hurricane, and catches Kairi and quickly sets up--and hits--the
HURRIBREAKER!! Cover, 1, 2, 3!!

*ding, ding, ding*

Winner by
Pinfall: The Hurricane

Just as Hurricane and Kairi leave, all the lights go low and we are met by the low howl of a wolf.

Light a Candle for the Sinners! Set the World on Fire!

Marilyn Manson's "1996" cues up and Nexus stalks out onto the stage, glaring around in a pale white light, his eyes giving off an eerie glow. He's got on black leather pants, his hair in 5 large braids around his head, and a mesh longsleeve shirt. HE runs tot he ring on all fours and jumps form the outside inot the ring, stalking around on all fours and glaring up at the entrance.

Capetta: The following match is one fall. Making his way to the ring at 300 lbs, hailing from... *he glances at his notes* The Dark Side of Lunacy... Nexus Dogs--

Nexus charges Capetta and clotheslines him out of the ring.

Nexus: JUST... Nexus.

"HT" (Trigun opening theme) by Tsuneo Imahori cues and Colley-chan shows up. She looks none to thrilled, especially after seeing how Capetta was handled just now. She circles the ring and stops to check Capetta and slowly gets in, Nexus backed up, eyeing her while crouching on the other side of the ring.

Nexus rushes in with a brute fury. Colley-chan easilly jumps over and turns around... but Nexus had stopped just after running under her and met her face with a back elbow. He sneers and kicks her while she's down. She rolls away and to her feet. He follows and she manages a drop toe hold and jumps on his back, to work on him a bit.

This continues. Colley-chan accually seems to be one-upping Nexus with her speed over his power. She has Nexus staggered and goes off the ropes for some momentum. But Stigmata seems to have come out of no-where and grabbed Colley-chan's feet tripping her. Colley-chan then begans screaming in pain. Stigmatta has some large needdles and is gouging them into Colley-chan's achillies tendon.

While Colley-chan is distracted with pain, Nexus has walked right up to her and grabbed her by the head. He then clubs her hard across the ear and side of the head with his fist, sending her loopy. He rubs her face in his crotch mockingly before shoving her head between his thighs and lifting her up in a powerbomb and brings her down hard! He lifts her up and does it again... and again. And he brings her up for the fourth in his usual Fourth Impact... but lifts her up for a fifth time... and a sixth... He continues thsi multiple powerbomb about 12 times and Colley-chan is flopping hard against the mat, obviously KOed. The ref calls for the bell. Nexus growls but doesn't seem to care. He lifts Colley-chan up once more, walks to the ropes and powerbombs her out of the ring, back against the edge of the barrior.

Dogg: My god!!

Ayane: Nexus has become a monster!

Nexus climbs out of the ring and over to Colley-chan. She's writhing in pain, draped backward over the barrior. He leans in close. ".... itte kimasu..." He then punches Colley-chan in the gut. Stigmata smiles softly and climbs on his back as he leaves.

Ayane: Someone get Aerith out here! Cut to a Commercial!

Dogg: Ladies and Gentlemen, we'll be right back...

Dogg: ...and we're back. Tonight's main event
features, of all things, the #1 contender facing off against a wrestler
debuting tonight in EAW.

Ayane: Hai, but poor 18-chan...she doesn't seem
to have her heart into her wrestling anymore.

Dogg: Right, and that's bad
news for her tonight, and especially for her match with Connelly at All
Hallow's Extreme.

Ayane: Well, not that I want Michael-kun to lose
it...but wouldn't be a good thing if she went into it not caring either
way.. =/

Dogg: Yeah...we wanna see a helluva fight no matter who we're
rooting for. Anyway, let's go to the ring for our main event...

"The
following match is scheduled for one fall...introducing first, from Atlanta,
Georgia..he stands 6'1" and weighs in at 230 pounds...Mike
Sanders!"

Sanders makes his way out to a booing crowd, and he actually
gets in the face of some of the ringside fans before stepping inside the
ring.

"Shock" by Fear Factory cues up as we cut back to the arena. A mixed
reaction for Eighteen as she comes out.

"And his opponent...from the Red
Ribbon Army she stands 5'8" and weighing in at 125 lbs. She's the #1
Contender for the EAW World Heavyweight Title...Eighteen!

A mixed reaction
for Eighteen, who comes out and makes a beeline for the ring, not even
taking her eyes off it...

*ding, ding*

A shoulder claw is applied by Eighteen as she gives him several
hard shots to the back, and picks him up over her shoulder--REVERSE
DVD!!

She sets up Sanders for the Whiplash Screw, but he escapes early,
and counters with an Enzui Giri. He quickly picks her up and hits two
swinging neckbreakers--the second while still holding on after the first
one, and plants her on the back of her head after a modified reverse DDT.
Eighteen kicks out at 2, and kippups, arm dragging Sanders over, and again.
A charge from Eighteen is countered with a sidelock arm bar into a front
facelock, and Sanders snap suplexes her. Whip to the ropes, and Sanders
attempts to catch her in a Frankensteiner--CAUGHT by Eighteen!! She hoists
him overhead, and runs towards the ropes, Powerbombing him over the top rope
and he splats onto the floor.

Eighteen exits the ring, and tosses him back
in. Hard Irish Whip to the corner, catches him on the rebound, and a
running powerslam. She reaches down and grabs him by the throat, pulls him
up, and hits the Wreckoner. 1, 2, and a 3! Eighteen walks away and exits
the ring, heading to the back, not even waiting for her hand to be
raised.

Winner by Pinfall: Eighteen

Dogg: Man! What a match, but Eighteen not even caring. What is a monster with no care? More dangerous than on with a reason, in my view...

Ayane: *nod* ... on that note, this is Ayane, for Akiko and Road Dogg. Goodnight everyone.
