The sold out Manchester Evening News arena is pumped as EBWF Defiance kicks off on Sky Box Office for its first birthday. The capacity crowd had been anticipating the EBWF PPV since announced, and their energy is proof of that as they blow the roof off along with the opening pyrotechnics and “The One” by Rob Zombie, the official Defiance theme song. JR and A Gorilla call ringside action.
JR-“Happy birthday EBWF and welcome ladies and gentlemen, to Manchester! We’re sold out and live at Defiance!”
AG-“Puny English just as puny as all others, but Gorilla still glad is here. I want see all the puny Superstars of EBWF fight in England! Yea!!”
JR-“I share your sentiments, Gorilla. I’m really pumped as I’m sure all our fans are here in England for this, our first over seas EBWF pay per view. Let’s get it on!”
Mary G Round caught up with Natalia and Drago backstage:
N-“Drago was designed for big match environment. I am sure he will annihilate opposition as though they were small children, after all Drago has whole country in his corner.”
MGR-“Are you concerned at all with Mistress Pain being in this match?”
N-“(laughs) We are not concerned with one who wrestles in her underwear. Mistress Pain will learn that there is another side to this sport, athleticism. Drago will teach her this lesson very well, as well as the others. No one will stand against Drago.”
Apollo finishes pulling his knee pads up and slaps them tight with aggression. He looks intense; his eyes narrow in their deep and dark sockets.
A-“Yea, it’s mine Bigg…it’s all mine. Fist this battle-royal, then Snakes strap. I’ll be the best! Number One! Apollo, the best champion of all time…” Apollo looks like he’s reading his own words off a newspaper headline until Bigg adds…
MB-“No Apollo…the greatest.” Apollo agrees as both men nod and smile.
AS-“Do you always ask so many questions, Molly?”
MGR-“Mary.”
AS-“Whatever. Plain and simple, Storm is in this position tonight because he thinks he can mess with “Larger than Life”. The operative word here, Molly, is think. He thinks, but here’s what I know. Because Storm cost us a chance for tag gold he’s going to be punished, and punished severely. As for any explanations…” Hollywood butts in.
HW-“Someone like you isn’t privileged to that kind of information.” Superstar gets back in.
AS-“Just watch the damn match.”
Mary G Round Interviews Missy
M-“Can I call it down the middle? As I recall you asked Violence that very same question last week when he refed Xanders match. Did he call it down the middle? I don’t think so. But still, that wont skew my duty as a referee. I’m wearing these stripes and therefore I have to observe the rules…now if you’ll excuse me…” Xander walks in and hooks Missy’s arm. The two of them walk off together laughing.
BR-“Violence, if you don’t mind me asking, you’re moments away from competing against Xander for the Wild Arms Championship in a match officiated by your ex-wife Missy and you’re standing here laughing, why?” Violence scoops Bob up by the collar of his shirt.
V-“Did anyone ever tell you you’re a pest? But since you’re so interested…what’s so funny? Tonight I get back what’s rightfully mine, the Wild Arms Championship, and as for my bitch ex-wife…not only will she be there to see it happen, she’ll be the one counting Xanders shoulders down. Real man, eh Missy? You’re about to see what a real man can do!” Violence drops bob and walks off.
Anthony’s announcement
A-“I told you all I would have an announcement to make, and that is this…Violence, your reign as Wild Arms Champion is over.” Violence is stunned as is the crowd. “I am now taking this title belt and combining it with the Blockbuster Championship to form a new title, the X Championship.” The crowd buzzes with confusion. “Since you are the last reigning champion you will of course be the first entry in this new X tournament.” Anthony smiles. “You and of course…Xander…”
From behind, Xander clobbers Violence and lays boot to his back. Anthony gets out of the ring and heads up to the entrance way. Missy and Xander finally leave Violence a mass in the ring and head to the back themselves.
JR-“There you have it folks, Commissioner Anthony has designed a new Championship from two. I guess we’ll be having another tournament here in the EBWF!”
AG-“But now is time for main event…no more talking…ACTION!”
A video package plays recounting the story behind the Extreme Dream battle Royal. The package plays along with “The One”. Superstars like Apollo, Malice, Mistress Pain, Bobbo, Adam Superstar, Drago, and Storm are highlighted above the rest until it culminates with a tight shot on the glaring World Heavyweight Championship.
JR: Hello everyone, and welcome to tonight’s main event. The Extreme Dream battle Royal. The winner of this match up gets a chance at going to Heavy metal to face the World Champion. This is currently in the possession of Snake.
AG: Someone who will not make himself known here in the ring tonight.
JR: That’s right. But his future opponent will. Apollo is in this match up, with hopes of getting his title shot a little earlier.
“Just a girl” begins to play as Chloe Lane comes out into the arena to a mixed reaction.
JR: If there were anytime to give out the rules, now would be them. To be eliminated, you must be thrown over the top rope. Both feet must touch the floor. The superstars can enter whenever, just as long as they follow the order in which they were given earlier tonight.
Chloe enters the ring and awaits the next entry. “Forsaken” begins to play as Storm comes out behind the curtain to another set of mixed reactions.
JR: Here he comes, Superstar’s monkey as he likes to call him. Seems as though that…
AG: Wait. I was there during official drawing. Storm should not be here right now. Instead, should be Superstar coming in ring.
JR: You’re right. It seems as though Superstar has forced Storm into trading numbers. Maybe Storm will at least last long enough to get back at Superstar.
As Storm enters the ring, the bell sounds, and the match up begins. Just as it does, “Points of Authority” begins to play, and havoc comes running out and into the ring. He charges at Chloe and Storm, but they double arm drag him out of the ring.
JR: Well, we have our first elimination. And it happens to be Havok. That now leaves us with the first two entries.
Storm and Chloe lock up. They both fight for power, as “TNT” blasts through the arena and Livewire comes out into the arena.
JR: This is our forth entry. We’ll try to keep you informed with their numbers, but I’m afraid we may miss a few.
Livewire joins in on the two and the three start fighting it out. Another buzzer sound brings in yet another entry. The crowd goes wild as Sophie comes out.
JR: This is surely a homecoming for Sophie, having been from here in England.
Sophie enters the arena and pulls Chloe away from the trio and begins to do a number on her. In the meantime, Livewire begins to fight against Storm. “Howler” begins to play as Xander comes out into the arena.
JR: Oh my god. Business is surely about to pick up here in Manchester. The big 300 pounder is making his way into the ring, and is lookin’ for gold.
Xander gets into the ring, and everyone begins to fight him off. He pushes them all away, and grabs Livewire by the throat. Lifting her up, he tosses her over the top rope and goes to find another victim. He finds one in Storm, who attempts to fight him off, but isn’t able to hold him off as Xander knocks him down with a harsh clothesline. Sophie and Chloe begin double teaming him, and are joined by Storm.
JR: I don’t think they’ll ever get this guy off his feet. What they need is some more muscle power.
“Get Psycho” plays as Lexx comes out into the arena.
AG: That should suffice.
Lexx enters the ring and aids the trio in taking down Xander. Along with Lexx’s strength, they all finally get him down. With Xander down, Lexx goes and pays attention to the others. She pulls Chloe away from Xander and lifts her up in the gorilla press slam. Walking over to the ropes, she drops her out of the ring. Sophie jumps up on her from behind and applies a sleeper hold. Lexx turns her back towards the ramp way and begins to lean back in anticipation for Sophie to loosen her grip. Instead, Xander knocks them both over with a clothesline.
JR: This now leaves Xander and Storm.
“Burn in Hell” plays as Malice comes out to a loud mixed reaction. More cheers than actual boos.
JR: And Malice! Malice has come back and is ready to get his title shot back!
Malice enters the ring and knocks Malice down with a hard clothesline. Storm turns his attention to him, but is only knocked down himself with a big boot. Malice then picks Storm back up and places him on the top turnbuckle where he clotheslines him right off and out of the ring. Suddenly, both Dragoon and Kaos slide into the ring.
JR: Dragoon and Kaos? Are they working together?
AG: It only make sense. Team up to take out big guys.
Kaos and Dragoon now start to do a number on Malice. They send him into the ropes, and take him down with a spine buster. Then they turn their attention to Xander, who is now starting to get up. Both men start clubbing Xander over the back, trying to keep him down. Xander finally manages to push away Kaos, then grabs Dragoon and gets him up with a chokehold. But before Dragoon can be eliminated, Kaos comes from behind with a chop-block, sending Xander down. Kaos and Dragoon now start to stomp away at Xander. Malice then comes in and grabs Kaos and whips him into the ropes. Malice follows him and knocks him out over the ropes with a quick clothesline. Dragoon then comes up from behind Malice and knocks him down with a hard forearm. “Leave you far behind” begins to play as Emily runs down and climbs up to the top turnbuckle. When Dragoon turns around, Emily jumps off and connects with the hurricanrana. Emily jumps up as she stands over top of Xander, Malice, and Dragoon. “Dirrty” begins to play as Mistress Pain comes out to a loud boo. Mistress smiles out towards the crowd. But from behind, Drago comes out and starts to assault Mistress. Natalia calls on the assault as Drago continues to pound away at Mistress. Finally, Drago carries Mistress into the ring and tosses her out of the ring with ease.
JR: Mistress has just been eliminated, but so has Dragoon. During this attack, Malice was able to get up and backdrop Dragoon right out of the ring.
Natalia stays at ringside as Drago begins to do a number on Malice. Emily attempts to take out Drago, but to no avail, as Xander pulls her away and choke tosses her out of the ring. But instead of going out, she grabs the top rope and holds on. With no one noticing, and the refs fully aware she is still in, everyone turns their attention away from Emily. Emily is then able to re enter the ring, but is hit by a hard clothesline from Xander, knocking her right over the top rope. This time, she lands her feet onto the mat, and is clearly eliminated. Xander goes and starts to aid Drago in taking out Malice. “Poor lil’ rich” begins to play as Ceasar comes running out into the ring. He immediately goes to work on Xander. With a dropkick, he knocks him down. “Bombshell” begins to play as Josie makes her way down and into the ring, with high hopes of winning the bout. Almost immediately, Disgruntled Clown comes running out into the ring following Josie. Just as she gets into the ring, Clown knocks her down with a clothesline. With a power bomb, he knocks the wind out of Josie. With Josie down, Clown turns his attention to Ceasar. With Ceasar off his back, Xander goes and picks up Josie. With her high in the air, he goes to eliminate her. But from behind, Malice grabs him and delivers a german suplex. Xander gets up with the momentum, and is taking out of the ring by Drago with a clothesline.
JR: Xander is over the top rope and eliminated! From lasting so long, Xander is out of this competition.
Josie now gets up, but is grabbed from behind and pushed over the top rope by Drago. Clown now comes from behind and takes out Drago with a full nelson slam. “Across the nation” begins to play as Aaron Rage comes out into the ring.
JR: Aaron Rage now comes out into the ring. How will he fair against these competitors?
AG: Wait! Someone with Aaron!
JR: That’s right! In fact, it’s not just anybody, it’s Van Horror! Aaron slides into the ring and begins to pick a fight with Clown, as Van ducks by the ring apron. Inside the ring, Clown gets Aaron up with a choke hold, and drops him over the top rope. With his back turned, Van dives into the ring and cross bodies Clown from behind, sending him and Clown over the top rope.
JR: Van has just eliminated Disgruntled Clown!
AG: But has also eliminated himself in the process.
JR: I don’t think he cares for the gold just yet. In fact, I think he cares about getting back at Disgruntled Clown.
“In da club” now plays as Junior Blayze goes to join Drago, Malice, and Ceasar in the ring. With everyone still recuperating, Junior takes advantage, and picks up Drago. He tries to eliminate him, but instead, gets knocked down with a knee to face smash. “Tearing Away” begins to play as Oscar now joins in on the festivities inside the ring. He slides into the ring and quickly goes to work on Ceasar. He starts fighting him towards the ropes as Drago does the same with Junior. In the corner, Malice takes the time to recover. “Otherworld” then begins to play as Kitty begins to walk out slowly. She watches the fights inside the ring, and decides to sit outside. Inside the ring, Oscar starts to lift Ceasar over the ropes as Drago has Junior in the corner. Malice is finally all recovered as he now takes it to Drago from behind. With Drago gone, Junior finally has time to fully recover. But before he can recover too much, Damien runs down to the ring and continues where Drago left off. Damien now tries to get Junior over the top rope. On the other side, Oscar finally realizes that Ceasar will not go over. Tired of lifting, Oscar is left weak as Ceasar begins to punch Oscar back. Drago and Malice continue their fight as “Queer” begins to play, and Lady Chaos comes out. Kitty looks shocked as Chaos grabs her from her seating position and rolls her into the ring. Surrounded by heavily built fighters, Kitty and Chaos begin a cat fight in the middle of the ring. Soon, “Tearing Away” reprises as Adam Superstar enters the arena. He steps into the ring and enjoys the cat fight. Then noticing his partner Oscar in trouble, he begins to help him out by attacking Ceasar from behind. Both him and Oscar begin double teaming Ceasar towards the ropes, where the eventually deliver a double clothesline knocking Ceasar over the top rope and out of the competition. Superstar points to Kitty and Chaos. As Superstar pulls Kitty away, Oscar pulls Chaos away. After separating them, they quickly toss them both over the top rope. Outside the ring, Kitty runs up the ramp as she flees away from Chaos. Hollywood now comes out and stands ringside and watches as Superstar and Oscar work as a team against Drago. Malice now turns his attention to Junior Blayze. He helps Damien eventually eliminate Junior. Then as a sign of “good job”, Malice grabs Damien by the back of the head and eliminates Damien. With these two gone, Malice goes and turns his attention towards Oscar. Superstar tries to take out Malice, but can’t land a punch as Drago grabs Superstar from behind and smashes his face against the turnbuckle. As Superstar bounces off the impact, Drago clotheslines him over the top rope. But before he can be eliminated, Superstar grabs onto the top rope. Drago would’ve noticed this, but the lights suddenly go out. All that is seen is a silhouette on the Extreme Tron. The familiar figure with the lit cigarette. The figure once again walks off the set, tossing his cigarette behind him. The sounds of a record player. This is then replaced by “Woke up”. The crowd roars as Louie Galanoochie enters the arena.
JR: My god! It’s Louie “Two Tone” Galanoochie! Came here from Dark Carnival Entertainment. He’s the mysterious figure we’ve been seeing all these weeks!
Everyone turns their attention to Louie as he struts down to the ring. This allows for Superstar to get in behind Drago and eliminate him by pushing him. Drago looks really upset as Natalia goes to help him up. Drago watches as Superstar just smiles and points him away. Meanwhile, Malice has Oscar down on the mat. Malice starts to stomp on Oscar as Louie goes and turns Superstar around. Louie then begins punching Superstar against the ropes where he whips him over to the other set. With the rebound, Louie tries to eliminate Superstar. But once again, he grabs a hold of the top rope. Louie notices this and moves over to him. Superstar then drives the gut into Louie. Superstar re enters the ring and takes Louie down with a clothesline. Just as he goes down, “I wanna be bad” plays as Nikita comes into the arena. But from behind, Memphis starts to assault Nikita. Nikita is able to hold her own as they both fight into the ring. In the corner, malice has Oscar nearly over the top rope. Hollywood yells out to Superstar to help Oscar. Superstar goes in to help, but Louie grabs him from behind and takes him down with a back drop. With the lack of help, Oscar acts for himself and takes a full swing at Malice. This loosens the grip as Oscar lowers himself back into the ring where he begins to work on Malice. Memphis now has Nikita down on the ground. Memphis steps over Nikita, and lifts her up by the throat. He keeps the hold and lifts her up and sits her down on the ropes. She takes a swing at her, but Nikita rolls backwards and grabs a hold of Memphis’ arm. With all her might, she pulls her over the rope, and out of the ring. Nikita sits back up on the ropes, but is quickly taken out by Oscar. Outside the ring, Memphis starts to take out Nikita. Memphis is then joined by Lexx. They begin double teaming her, but Emily comes and helps Nikita battle the Amazons back into the locker room area. Just as the four women disappear, “Disturbed” begins to play as Violence comes out into the arena, then slides into the ring where he takes out Oscar from behind. And just as quickly, he spins Oscar around by the arm and tosses him over the top rope eliminating him. Violence then starts to work on the injured Malice. “Down with the sickness” begins to play as Patrick Shelley makes his EBWF in ring debut. He quickly partners up with Louie and takes Superstar down. With malice down, Violence then notices an open chance to eliminate someone. He rushes over, grabs Patrick from behind, and tosses him out of the ring. Violence watches, but sees something else. Missy in the crowd. He yells out at her, but doesn’t notice Malice coming from behind. He pulls up Violence’s legs and gets him over the top rope. Violence looks mad as he hops the barrier and chases Missy through the crowd. Louie now turns his attention to Malice, who clotheslines him down. With Louie and Malice fighting, Superstar has an opportunity to rest, but that rest period is ended when “Show must go on” begins to play. Bobbo comes out down the ramp with Maple. Both with a smile. Bobbo slides into the rope and sees Superstar down. He helps him up, but is pushed away. When Superstar gets up, he goes for a super kick, but decides not to. Instead, he talks strategy with Bobbo. On the other side, Malice has Louie in the corner. Malice starts lacing the boots to Louie as Bobbo comes from behind with a kick to the back of the knee. Malice almost goes down, by doesn’t as he turns and tosses Bobbo away. From behind, Louie climbs up the top turnbuckle, and jumps off delivering a neck breaker drop. When Louie rises up, Superstar rushes at Louie and knocks him over the top rope with a clothesline. Louie is then eliminated, as everyone now waits for the last entry.
JR: We all know who this is. None other than Apollo. He may already have a title shot, but this could get it earlier for him.
“Lapdance” begins to play as Apolo comes out through the curtains along with Mr. Bigg. Everyone takes notice as Apolo slowly enters the ring. Everyone goes to attack him, but he pushes them all away.
JR: Well, we’re down to the final four. Bobbo, Superstar, Malice, and Apolo. Who’s going to Heavy Metal to face the champ?
Apolo takes notice of Malice, and heads towards him, but Bobbo steps in the way and begins starts punching at Apolo. Apolo doesn’t seem phased, as Bobbo now goes to run at Apolo, who uses Bobbo’s own momentum and tosses him over the top rope eliminating him.
JR: Bobbo is gone!
With three people left, Apolo continues towards Malice. Finally, the two get into the fight. To the side, Superstar watches; waiting for the perfect opportunity. After a short fisty cuffs, Superstar takes the chance and begins delivering chops to Apolo and Malice. After the fifth chop, both Apolo and Malice get a hold of Superstars hair tosses him out of the ring.
JR: We are down to two men in this match up. There are no more entries. This is it.
Both Apolo and Malice begin fighting each other, but Apolo gets the upper hand and begins to pummel Malice into the corner. Apolo then tosses Malice into the opposite corner and goes in and charges into Malice. Malice takes a few steps forward a little dazed. Apolo then lifts Malice up into the gorilla press slam. He starts towards the ropes, but not before yelling out towards the crowd. Before Apolo can drop Malice out of the ring, Malice squirms around and gets out of the hold. Apolo looks shocked as Malice punches Apolo into the ropes. Malice then attempts an irish whip, but is countered as Apolo sends Malice against the ropes. But Malice stops himself by grabbing the top rope. Apolo charges at Malice, who low bridges the rope and sends Apolo over halfway over the top rope. Lifting the legs over the rope, Malice eventually eliminates Apolo. The bell rings and “Burn in Hell” begins again. Malice is then announced as the winner of the Extreme Dream battle royal. Jerry joins Malice in the ring as both men celebrate the tough victory.
JR: My god! Malice has won the Extreme Dream battle royal! He goes to heavy Metal to face the champ! The rematch everyone has been waiting for will come. What will happen at Heavy Metal?
