PREVIOUSLY...Winters nearly bit off far more than he could possibly chew last week, as he ruffled the feathers of far too many wrestlers last week on Courage. A week had passed were there had been little activity in ACW. No house shows, no signings, no special dates...nothing. However, as the wrestlers slowly filter into the arena tonight, many thoughts fill their head as they wonder just how long they can take the blind running of this federation, by Ethan Winters.
Tough
Words
Tonight had all the ingredients for the making of a
really good "wrestling" show, which was something that many a
federation owner had forgotten about in recent times, but it seemed that
Winters at least knew what these people had came here to see tonight.
The only problem that Winters might have tonight, are those wrestlers
whom he booked. Many a threat had floated around ACW recently, with the
biggest one being that the wrestlers are becoming fed up with their
bosses' attitude to them, and their work. There was only so much that
they could take, and Winters was walking a very thin line as he stood in
the middle of the ring as Courage opened to the viewing public back
home. One thing about Winters was that to the fans, he was
never a hate figure...not yet anyway. He had done things that would make
him seem like a hate figure in any other federation, but these people
knew what he had done for ACW, so maybe they were going a little lenient
on him so far in his short time as Owner. "Today's
wrestling industry is a
fickle, fickle business.
With the wrestling
industry hitting it's
lowest point in many a
year, things have to be
done to make sure that
federations, such as
ACW, stay a float, even
though they are being
brushed aside by the
bigger fish in the pond,
if you know what I mean. Many
outsiders in this
business say that I'm
too ruthless to run a
federation such as this,
if wrestlers mess me
around, then I fire
them, it's the way I've
always worked in any
business that I have
been a part of.
Although, I have learned
that firing people isn't
always the best option,
punishment has to be
thought about for
wrestlers who seem to
think that I am some
sort of nobody who they
can mess around with. Next
Sunday, will be our
THIRD PPV event, and I
have to say I'm quite
excited about what kind
of matches you will be
seeing at the event. At
End Game, you will see
all the titles being put
up for grabs, even the
Vacant US Title, which
was dropped when ERA
decided to mess me about
like a few others have
done in the past. We are
also looking for our
biggest buy rate for a
PPV ever, so please,
none of this black box,
pirate rubbish, help
myself and the wrestlers
out by buying the PPV,
which will surely be
worth it. But, I have
just a small warning for
all the wrestlers...I
have people knocking at
the door every day who
want a chance to be in
ACW, but frankly I don't
need them at the moment,
unless tonight's and
next week's shows are no
hopers. If you
don't perform to my
standard, you will not
be paid. If you
don't show up through
injury, you will not be
paid. If you
talk to me in a tone
that I don't like, you
will not be paid. In other
words, don't piss me
about, or you will not
be paid!" The
words that will start
the war?
Closer
Part One
The night is only beginning as the fans still await much to come on Courage. The scene heads into the parking lot where a silver BMW Z8 is seen arriving at the arena. The car is parked and the headlights turn off, to show a clear sight on the screen of Jay Smash sitting in his car for a few seconds as he looks down at his injured leg. Jay Smash opens the door and exits his car, then makes his way to the doors of the arena. A security guard stops Jay Smash before entering and raises a piece of paper up from his
hand. Jay Smash is then stopped by Ralph, who seems to be following Jay Smash
everywhere.
Magick
is in the Air
The Big Screen lit up showing Geo Vacton walking into the arena. The crowd gave
out a surprising amount of ovation as Vacton stepped through a hallway where he
was met by someone who's face could not be seen at the current angle. "No, Geo. I've met some nuts before in my day, you know that. But this guy is
off the wall, he tried crucifying himself for goodness sake! My other guys
wouldn't even do that!" "Heeeyyy, Magick Man here! Best damn wrestling promoter and magician in the business! Whatta ya need?"
Arrival
As the lights shine on the city of Milwaukee advertising the showing of Courage even more than the posters and commercials, a dark green BMW M3 pulls into the parking lot of the County Stadium. The tinted windows don’t allow the driver to be visibly seen, as the car speeds past the hordes of fans at the front door.
The
Search For Something New
The
last few weeks had gone
pretty well for the
collective members of
Winters Inc…
Dante Inferno…
the major owner of ACW,
Ethan Winters and the
former ACW world
champion, Osyrus as the
scene opened in a quiet
office. The
camera panned around
it’s surroundings with
all three men present in
the room as Winters
shuffled through stacks
of files in a repetitive
fashion. He glanced over
a file, a slight smile
would form but only to
go away as Ethan
crumpled up the piece of
paper and threw it near
the trash can.
Dante and Osyrus
began to grow restless
as the duo shook their
heads in disbelief as
another paper hit the
ground. Maybe the apps
might have made it in
the trash can if Winters
had the athletic ability
necessary to be able to
make a basket… But
he didn’t. "Damn
it!” Ethan yelled out
as he threw the another
file, this time at the
door in anger. “Out
all these damn
applications that were
sent to me…none of
these guys are good
enough to be on the ACW
roster. What in the hell
am I going to do?”
Winters said as he
pushed the remaining
documents on the floor,
obviously giving up on
his search for new
talent.
“You
need to calm down first
off… everything will
work out in the end, as
it always does.” The
familiar voice of Osyrus
was heard as the camera
panned in his
direction. He
picked a file off of the
floor and started to
roll it up into a ball
with his massive
hands… “We
have got to find new,
interesting talent
rather than those guys
who are just out to be
on the roster as Osyrus
wannabes. That’s why
there is hardly anyone
in ACW that can compete
with the likes of
Winters Inc. They
say that they are the
next big thing or
superstars that should
be at the top of their
league…but in the end,
turn out to be nothing
but phonies. Nothing
more than jobbers that
should be under the
bottom of my boot…like
the cockroaches they
are! And the fans wonder
why Winters Inc is the
most dominate stable in
wrestling today. IT'S
BECAUSE WE HAVE NO EQUAL
IN THAT RING! Isn’t
that right Dante?!”
Osyrus shoots the
ball as it sinks to the
bottom of the trash can.
“Show
off.” The
ACW owner replies as he
stands up of his chair,
walking around his nice
wood finish desk as he
makes his way to the
door. Ethan steps over
the files on the floor
as Dante and Osyrus look
in his direction. “Where
are you headed?” The
cold and chilling voice
of Inferno was heard as
he slightly raised his
head up in Ethan’s
direction. He rubbed on
the scars on his face as
Winters replied back
with a simple…
“To
re-access my talent
pool.” Winters
grasped the door knob as
the door slowly opened
as he turned back to
Osyrus and Dante. “I
need to think about some
of the people I have
working for me and if I
should really be paying
them for their lacking
effort. I am not going
to waste even a cent on
a guy that is not
pulling his weight
around here in ACW…”
“it
about time you showed
more of your cruel side
in ACW.” The former
champ chimed in as
Winters closed the door
for some odd reason.
“Even though the House
shows went well last
week and you gave me the
week off as well.
We
need to make an example
of someone to show
everyone that we mean
business when it comes
to the elevation of
All-Star Championship
Wrestling! Who do you
think it should be?”
Osyrus asking his fellow
Winters Inc. members in
a sarcastic tone of
voice as all three men
chuckled a bit.
“I
gave you the week off
last week?” A confused
owner fired back as
Osyrus just smiled back
sinisterly. “Yeah
you did and that week
was well spent.”
Ethan just
shrugged his shoulders
and smiled politely,
going back to his desk
as he picked up his cell
phone under all the
clutter. “But
enough about last
week… we need to focus
on the present and the
continually demise of
SilverHAWK.”
Osyrus’ smile
turn to a pissed off
scowl as he got up from
his chair… as did
Dante seconds later. “The
longer he has my title,
the faster ACW goes down
the damn gutter. Come on
Ethan, we need get rid
of Hawk once and
for…” Osyrus stopped
in mid-sentence as
Winters held his arm up
in a stop position. “Don’t
worry O, tonight I have
the solution for the
SilverHawk problem…
And at the pay per view,
I know without a shadow
of a doubt that you will
be world champion
again.” “That’s
music to my ears
Ethan…music to my
ears.” Osyrus smiled
returned again as all
three men exited the
office as Dante closed
the door behind him.
Branson
Blair Vs.
ICU
As
the pictures came back
from a commercial break,
Branson Blair stood
inside the ring as he
awaited his opponent for
the night. What happened
next was something that
probably nobody in the
arena, even ICU would
have seen coming.
No boos No chucking of beer cups No profanity being screamed at him Nothing ICU stopped for a moment to take it in...and then continued down to the ring, a small grin appearing on his face as he dragged the TV title over to the ring before rolling in, throwing it in the referee's face and then faced Blair who was standing in the middle of the ring. Blair looked ICU up and down in an act of sheer cockiness, which instantly set ICU off as he nearly beheaded Blair with a clothesline. Blair got up straight away, but maybe too quickly, as he walked straight into another clothesline which sent him down to the mat once again, but this time he was aware enough to roll out of the ring and collect himself on the outside. ICU moved over to Blair, but as he stepped closer to the ropes, Blair grabbed his legs from under him and pulled him to the outside, attacking him with boots to the chest as ICU met the matted floor with a harsh bump. Blair picked up the TV Champion and threw him into the side railing back first, and then began to punch ICU in the chest area, as ICU clammed his body up to absorb the impact. As quick as a hiccup, ICU turned the tables, as he took Blair's head and thrust it towards the railing, to which Blair connected with some force as he rebounded back off the railing and backed up a few steps. ICU then hit him with a hard right hand and then pushed him back into the ring, to the referee's delight. As ICU jumped back into the ring, Blair stamped on his back and then pulled him to his feet, whipping him to the ropes. ICU ducked the initial clothesline attempt by Blair, and then bounced off the other set of ropes, to which he flew off of with a flying clothesline which connected brilliantly with Blair, as both men tumbled to the mat. ICU bounced straight back up, and pulled Blair to his feet, before pushing him into the corner and smashing his mid-section with a knee and then two shoulder charges. ICU then whipped Blair to the other side of the ring, but missed with his clothesline, as ICU turned around Blair kicked him in the gut, and whipped him up in the air with a gut-wrench, from which he covered the TV Champion afterwards. 1... 2... Kickout. it wasn't even close. The crowd winced as Blair lay on the mat holding his head, making sure everything was where it should have been, but before he knew it, ICU was on him again. ICU mounted Blair and became to punch him in the forehead, causing Blair to try and break himself free by squirming...he did so and got free and he pushed ICU off of him, but as Blair got up, he was still a little bit dizzy and as he fell onto the ropes, it gave ICU the perfect excuse to smash him over the top rope, which he did so with another clothesline. Blair toppled over the top rope and slammed down hard on the padded floor, as the fans nearby took their photo's, Blair was trying to figure out where he was as the referee counted. 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... Blair was on his feet, looking around as the referee was in his face, shouting numbers at him. Blair realized what was going on, and the proceeded to jump up on the ring apron to get back in the ring, but as he was standing there, ICU baseball slid right by Blair, which caused some confusion. Blair looked around for ICU, and then found him, as ICU poked his head through Blair's legs and proceeded to powerbomb him off the ring apron! With a large bump, and just inches away from the commentary table, ICU powerbombed Blair to the mat with a sit down powerbomb, before he rose to his feet, and slid back into the ring. The referee shrugged and then started his count once again. 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10. With that, ICU collected his TV Title, walking over Blair's broken body as he walked to the back, a job well done. Next destination. End Game. Winner: ICU
Reminisce
"It looks like you spend more time out of the ring
than in it these days HAWK..." HAWK sat
on his locker room
bench, empting his gym
back as he looked up to
the doorway with a small
smirk on his face, as
Dunn leaned again the
doorway, smiling back at
him. "So
how are things with the
body HAWK, you've had
two weeks to recover
now." "Things
are OK Dunny, don't
worry, I may be getting
older, but I'm getting
wiser too, you gotta
remember that some day.
This cat is getting
wiser by the day, and
I'm getting too wise to
know that something's up
with this match tonight,
and I still don't know
what's happening next
week." Dunn
sighed as he stepped
away from the doorway
and sat across from his
long time friend. "Neither
do I HAWK, Winters
hasn't kept us in the
loop about Osyrus or
you, and I don't know
why ToK is there either.
Maybe he is just looking
for someone who can mess
you up before the
match?" "So
he picked ToK? A guy he
doesn't really know
about, another educated
decision my Mr. Winters
I see...Gonz hasn't even
arrived yet, which is
un-usual for him to say
the least. I don't know
Dunny, something doesn't
smell right, and Boyd
isn't even here." "I'll
tell him you said
that." "You
do that." As the
two men laughed, the
door shut quietly, it
was like the old days...
Arrival
Pt 2
Dropping the bag on the floor in their dressing room, Jade waited patiently for Jason to arrive at the Stadium. She had been waiting almost twenty minutes, as she checked her watch again, for the millionth time. He had told her he’d be there before the first match, but it was quickly approaching, and there was still no sign of him. Jade was beginning to worry.
Emotions
Dante wrapped torn cloth over his hands as he prepared
for the fight this evening. He had no other words to describe what was going to
happen this evening, for one thing, it would be no wrestling match, it
would be a straight fight. He was never one to let his emotions run wild
on him, usually, he was a calm and cool character whom could never be
touched by anyone, or anything. But Kain had got inside of him, inside of him so much
that Dante didn't care about the winning tonight. He was undefeated in
ACW, but that was nothing to him, he didn't care anymore. "What is the point of being invincible when you
have nothing to show for it" was something that you would regularly
hear him say. He didn't even care about Scott Perry, who was he to get
in his business? Did Winters think that Dante wasn't strong enough to
take on both of them? Questions fluttered through his mind as he
collected the last piece of cloth and tape and wrapped it around his
fist's. As he looked in the mirror, he caught a glimpse of the
man he now was. Trembling. Weak. Tired. Angry. All of these emotions pent up inside of him like 1000
birds in a cage, trying to be set free, but only one emotion embroiled
his blood as he looked in the mirror and looked down upon the sign of
Jesus Christ that bore his chest. Retribution.
457 W. 3rd Street.
“I hope you’re getting all of this…”
Arrangements
Scott Perry sat in his small closet of a locker room; it was dark and looked damp. Scott’s face was one of contemplation. He rubbed the palm of his hand, pain seethed through it. At his feet lay a bible, a slash went throughout the book, a knife had been driven through this book prior to tonight.
Reunion
As ICU walked to the back, through tunnels of direction
tape and wires, he finally got back into the main backstage lobby, where
he walked over to the water dispenser and collected a cup of water for
himself, drinking half of it's contents and then pouring the rest over
his head, soaking himself and his TV Title. Suddenly, a towel was thrown
at him, to which he caught and then looked to see were it had come from. "Good job Ivan." ICU's eye's widened as he and the ACW World Champion
stood face to face, a huge reaction coming from the capacity crowd in
the arena. These two had history, and the fans knew it, what was more
apparent was there respect for one another...as the shared the same
piece of floor on the arena. "That was one hell of a move you did there, nice
work." "Thanks. Maybe one day I'll get a chance to show
you it...first hand." HAWK smiled, a small smirk coming from ICU too, as the
tension was beginning to release. "Listen, I ain't here to bust your balls or
anything, I just want to know a few things about one half of the team
I'm facing tonight...ToK, you've had some dealing's with him,
correct?" "I only know that he is a cowardly piece of
shit...other than that, I can't help you that much." "Mmmmm, well he's been paired with Osyrus tonight
for some reason, I just think that there is a little more to it than
just shoddy booking." "Hey, HAWK, let's get one thing straight, in this
joint, never overlook the shoddy booking." "Yeah, Winters doesn't know his ass from his
elbow...well, I better go and get prepared. See you around Ivan..." "Definitely..." Dante
Inferno & Scott
Perry Vs. Jason Kain
& Jade
As C & C Music
Factory's "Things that make you go Hmm.." began to play on the
arena system, the fan's groaned as Scott Perry entered the fray,
paranoia driven as he walked down the ramp, looking over his shoulder
constantly as he made his way up the ring steps and into the ring. He
didn't even notice the crowd as he watched the top of the stage for his
"partner", Dante Inferno. As Inferno entered the
scene, fans at either side of the barrier shouted at him, taunting him
with necklaces that bore the crucifix, he was unharmed as he walked into
the ring to confront Perry. "I nor want, nor need
you here...so do as I say and not as I do..." With that he walked past
Perry, who was left confused as hell to what he was supposed to do in
the match. 'El Distortio De Musica' by Everclear played, as the
fans rose to their feet as the former uKw star, and his girlfriend Jade
hit the scene to a decent reception from the crowd. As Kain and Jade
made their way to the ring, Dante paced up and down the ring shaking his
fists, as Kain stopped at the edge of the ring and took a deep breath.
He had pissed off a giant, and he knew that he was going to get hit back
for what he did, but that was the whole point, was it not? Jade and Kain jumped onto the ring apron, and both of
them entered the ring steadily, waiting for Inferno to pounce, but he
never did. Instead, he tapped Perry on the back, and then stepped to the
outside, leaving Perry to open the match to his disbelief. Jade started on the other side, the bell rang, Perry
looked back at Dante, and Dante wasn't even looking, but as he turned
towards Jade, he was flattened with a hard clothesline which sent him
reeling back into the corner. Jade began to stomp on Perry as he was in
the corner, but she couldn't take her eyes off Dante, who stood on the
ring steps, staring at her through the whole ordeal, he didn't move an
inch. Jade, picked Perry up and whipped him to her corner,
where Kain held onto Perry as Jade hit him with a running dropkick in
the stomach, on the corner. Jade tagged in Kain, receiving a small pop
from the crowd as he got in the ring and began to hit Perry with some
hard right hands, and then some chops to the chest. Kain took Perry to
the middle of the ropes and then whipped him to the other side, then
planting him down to the mat with a drop toe hold, before bouncing off
the ropes and plating a hard elbow drop to Perry's back, leaving him
reeling in pain. Kain got to his feet, and did so while pulling Perry to
his. He kicked him in the gut and then battered him down to the canvas
with a ddt, before jumping up to the second rope. He awaited Perry to
get to his feet and then tried a dropkick, to which Perry side stepped
and then helped Kain meet the floor, as he pushed him down as he
sidestepped the bullet. Perry kicked Kain in the back, before taking his right
leg, and smashing it off the canvas, Kain's limb bouncing off the mat. Perry got to his feet, and looked for the tag, but Dante
still stood on the ring steps, motionless. Perry shook his head and then watched as Kain flung a
clothesline at his direction As Jade asked the referee about Dante, Perry hit Kain
with a low blow. Kain fell to the mat clutching his privates, as Perry
got him, feeling his jaw and moving it 3 inches to the left, back to
it's correct position. Perry picked Kain up, and hit him with a stinging
right hand to the jaw, which sent Kain reeling to the ropes. Perry took
his arm and whipped him to the other side of the ropes and then looked
to knee Kain. But Kain rolled over his knee. 1... 2... Kickout. Perry quickly got to his feet and kicked Kain in the
head as he was getting to his. Perry once again looked for the tag, but
this time, Dante shook his head at him. "Fucking hell..." Perry sighed as he went back
to work. Perry moved over to Kain and picked him up, before
slamming him to the mat with a power slam and then pointed to the top
rope, as he was looking for his patented finishing move. Perry climbed to the top rope, and looked for the 450
splash, but just as he was about to set off, Jade shook the ropes which
sent him off balance as he fell into the top rope, squashing the little
general. As Jade went back to her place, screams could he heard, as
Dante had moved off of the ring steps, and was scurrying around under
the ring. None of the competitors seemed to notice as Dante pulled a
steel chair from under the ring. He jumped in the ring, and went for Jade straight away,
but his swing missed as Jade dropped off the ring apron at just the
right time. Dante then turned around only to have Kain dropkick the
chair in his face, which sent Dante reeling back to the ropes, where
Jade got a grip of his legs and yanked them back, as Dante hit the mat
face first. As Jade climbed in the ring however, Perry jumped off
the top rope and hit them both with a flying clothesline, it was
pandemonium in the ring. Perry got to his feet and turned around, and
bumped straight into Dante Inferno. "Leave." Perry got the message and jumped out of the ring,
standing outside of the ring to watch the rest of the action. Kain was
the first up, and he was given a massive boot to the stomach and then
the hardest powerbomb you have ever seen in your life. Dante whipped the
little 5'9'' star up and shot him down as fast as possible, as he
bounced off the canvas. Next was Jade, as she was up and holding onto
the ropes, Dante headed straight for her, but as Jade ducked Dante, and
pulled the top rope downwards, Dante went over the top rope. Jade got to her feet, but suddenly, her hair was dragged
backwards, and in one swift motion, she was thrown down to the mat, and
the back of her head connected with the steel chair that Dante had
brought into the ring. Dante stood on the ring apron, looking at the
mayhem, and then down at Scott Perry. The referee didn't know what to
do, and neither did Perry. Dante however, jumped down from the ring apron, and
pulled Jade out of the ring. She was out cold. He slung her over his
shoulder, and began to walk to the back, a chorus of boo's going around
the arena as Perry stood in bewilderment. Kain lay in the ring, not
knowing the full extent of what had happened. He lay, slain, unbeknownst that his love had been
kidnapped, by the man whom wanted retribution, upon him.
Winner: No
Contest
Closer Part Two
The camera now takes place once again backstage with Jay Smash and the three lovely ladies all sitting down together. Jay Smash has his arms around two of the women and the third is behind Jay Smash lying on a table, playing with her hair. Right before Jay Smash and one of the ladies make contact to kiss, Joey Sellers walks over with a mic. Jay Smash turns his head to Joey Sellers, then stands
up. He found out that I was Jay Smash, the ACW superstar, and I guess he thought that since I was so nice and becoming a big superstar, that he would help me out, and get what he wanted in the first place; money. Money was rolling in for him all because he secretly slid me into some commercials and some alien movie. Now he wants to be my friend, and my manager, and I actually do have to thank him for giving me these ladies. You'll see that later on, I promise you." He obviously has the skills so get far in this business, seeing that he is fighting for the US title, but I'll prove to him why he is not strong enough, good enough, and extreme enough, to beat the new disease. And if there is one thing I know about these fans, it is that they want a kick ass, tough son of a bitch, who will lay the
Smashdown, holding the United States championship. As you can see, I'm the perfect guy to hold that title. So Vacton, just remember where you stand, when that match begins, and you remember where you lie, when it's over. Why? Cause it's my time, it's smashing time!"
Just a Little Trip
Kain is seen running through the corridors backstage, searching diligently for Dante. He stops next to a worker and glares at him for a second before asking. Kain grabbed a fire extinguisher, putting out the fire before the camera got close. But as the camera changed its focus, the paint bubbled up and turned black. On the hood of his car, stood the anti-Christ cross. Burned. The camera turned back to Kain, whose face showed more anger than ever before. Then it faded out...
A “Get together”
Everyday is a battle That quote had began to describe HAWK's life in four
words recently. It had been like this for quiet a while, he had began to
collect a mass of pill bottles in his bag. You could literally find hundreds
of dollars worth of medication in his bag, but it had been this way for
quiet a while. HAWK sat in his locker room, almost ready for his match
this evening. The door swung open, no knock, no courtesy...it could only
have been one man. Winters? nope, he was too scared to come into HAWK's
dressing room now a days. "Gonz, ever heard of a knocking?" "Hey, I knock up loads of people..." wink wink "Please..." "C'mon HAWK, lighten up, The Gonz has his first
Main Event Ever! You should be happy for me man." it was true, Jimmy Gonz had been in the ACW for 5 years,
and he had never been in the Main Event. Jimmy was just never
popular...he could never find that gimmick that would set him up for
years to come. He often wondered how HAWK could have made it with
relatively no gimmick, but then he got his answer one night in Utah,
where he and HAWK went to sell photo's before an event. 500 people
showed up at HAWK's table, because he was simply one of them, people
could relate to HAWK. Most of the time, Jimmy would be put in situations that
he was placed in tonight. The extra man in a tag match, the third person
in a Triple Threat. He was reliable, and somewhat talented, you would
have a hard time to name 5 bad Jimmy Gonz matches, and that's what had
kept him in ACW for so long. "Gonz, c'mon, you've got loads of time to make it
after this, this is a stepping stone for you man, I want you to enjoy
A “Get together”
Scott Perry sat on a plastic chair outside of Mr. Winters office, his right leg hooked over his left, his foot shook impatiently. Scott looked at his hand; a deep red scab was covering the wound which
traveled straight through his hand to the other side. Scott turned his hand over; a matching dark red scab covered the wound. His hand shook vigorously; he was sweating profusely. Scott was afraid of going out and performing tonight, but he knew that he had to. Julian
Kang Vs. fate ling0d
He slid under the bottom rope and stood upright staring directly at Julian Kang. He was ready to decimate Kang and get the hell out of here. Both competitors stood in their respective corners waiting for the match to start. Finally the ref signaled for the bell and the match was underway.
This time both men took a few seconds to stare each other down then began to circle the ring. The fans were starting to get in to it a little bit as the men looked like they were ready to tear each other apart. Kang went in for the strike this time and attempted a spear but Fate quickly jumped over Kang then spun back around and connected with a superkick to the face of Kang sending him bouncing in to the ropes.
After a few seconds Fate got back to his feet and walked over to Kang and grabbed him by the hair pulling him up to his feet. The ref just started his mandatory ten count and telling the men to bring it back inside.
Once there Kang came flying back out with a forearm shot the face of Fate ling0d causing him to fall to the canvas. Kang tried to continue his attack by picking Fate up by the hair but Fate countered with a low blow which the ref didn't see.
Kang doubled over in pain from the illegal move and Fate capitalized by standing up and delivering a quick DDT spiking Kang in to the canvas. Fate decided to go for the quick pin and see if he could end it. The ref got down to make the count.
Fate wasn't done with his assault yet though. Fate got back up and went over to the nearby turnbuckle and climbed up to the second rope. He stood there for a second looking at Kang then jumped off and landed on Kang's stomach area feet first.
The crowd let out a little "ouch" chant as the move happened. Kang clutched his stomach area in pain as Fate just stood there smiling and laughing at his opponent's misery.
Fate delivered the move flawlessly. His version of the DVD spiked Kang's head right in to the mat and left him
unconscious. Fate wasn't done however. He picked up Kang's lifeless body once again and hooked his head under his arm. He quickly delivered the Set Path to Destruction, more commonly known as the
Evenflow DDT. It was all over after Fate delivered his finishing move. He quickly made the pin and the ref got down to make the count.
Fate quickly rose from the canvas and stared at Kang's lifeless body and smiled at his latest accomplishment. Fate then quickly turned around and exited the ring. He had done his job for the night. It was time to go bask in his glory.
Winner: fate

Heroes From Our Past
Time would tell.
"The Attitude" Max Douglas didn't give a shit about all this political
bollocks or the time it would take though, the only thing to catch his attention would be the things that might remotely affect him. Alias The cameraman walked in closer and closer to the passenger side trying to get a better view of the events unfolding before him. Suddenly Max Douglas's head is rammed through the passenger's side window, sending the camera man back a few steps.
Signs
of Something Much More
than a Psycho
"Geo? Geo? Geo, where are you?!" There was a panic in Magick Man's voice, one you didn't usually hear in it. "Geo? Jesus Christ, Geo! Where are you?" Magick Man
hustled down the narrow hallways looking for Vacton. "Geo, he's madder than you know! He's A LOT madder!" Magick came to an end of a hallway and grabbed someone leaning on a cart. "Where's Vacton?"
Wasted Words
To put it nicely, Ethan Winters wasn't having a very good night....as usual. Bullshit, you probably didn't even know if I where conscience or not when you made that decision.
Hell, you probably didn't fucking give a damn either." He had a match to fight up next, and another one to prepare for just around the corner at
End Game.
Closer Part Three
The
scene has gone to the backstage area with Jay Smash an the ladies for
the third time now, and this time, he is standing in the hallway next to
the exit where the parking lot can be seen and a new security guard
standing next to the door. When Jay Smash turns around from the door,
and to the other side of the hallway, Ralph can be seen making his way
towards him. When Ralph makes it to Jay Smash, he begins to speak. Russa
Vs. Alias
“Fine Again” by Seether hits the loudspeakers, bringing out Russa. The technical master jogs to the ring as his entrance video plays in the background. The events of the last month run through his head, shutting out the mostly mixed reaction from the crowd. One name kept resurfacing in his thoughts… Julian Kang.
Russa would worry about him at a later time however, he had to get focused. He was going up against Alias and after what Alias had done to Max Douglas tonight, Russa knew that he definitely had to be on his A game.
Alias brings the edge of his hand down, smacking the chest of Russa with a knife-edge chop. He follows it up with two more, “WHOOO…”s sprinkled through the crowd, before sending Russa into the other corner. Russa hits the corner hard and feels more punishment on him as he stumbles back out into a vicious capture suplex from Alias.
Alias lays a few boots into Russa before taking a step back from his opponent. Russa manages to get to his feet, but Alias nails him with a headbutt to the nose, a knee to the mid-section, and then an elbow to the top of the head. Click Click Boom. Seeing that Russa is down and battered, Alias quickly made the cover. One. Two. A kick-out by Russa ruins any plans of an early win for Alias.
Russa then pulls Alias forward and strikes him hard in the shoulder blade with a forearm. Russa continues his viscous shots by driving the point of his elbow into the shoulder of Alias, before taking Alias wrist in both hands. Russa executes a quick dropkick to Alias’s knees before whipping Alias to the ground with a snap suplex.
Russa throws a hard right hand towards Alias. Alias blocks it and hits Russa hard with a head butt that sends him into the ropes. Upon return, Alias whips his opponent forcefully towards the opposite ropes. After bouncing back into Alias, Russa is picked up and spun 360 degrees as Alias hits a tilt-a-whirl
Piledriver out of nowhere.
Alias is first to his feet however and as he brings Russa to his feet once again he hooks him up in a headlock, kicks off the ropes and hits a tornado bulldog. Russa still somehow manages to get up, but Alias boots him in the mid-section and after lifting him up as good as he could, he drops him to the mat with a brutal high angle powerbomb. Alias holds for the pin.
Alias grasps Russa’s waist over the top rope and gives all he can into a huge belly to belly suplex, this takes Russa up and into the air and
through the Spanish announcers table at ring side. As a “Holy Shit!” chant starts thru the arena, Alias raises a fist to crowd while still lying on his back at ringside from the insane move. Alias cocks his head sideways looking at the battered body of Russa lying in the rubble of the announcers table.
Russa fights back with right hands to avoid any more offense. Alias takes each shot and returns a shot of his own, as Russa quickly takes to the ropes. Alias manages to pick him up… and send him hard to the mat with Pulped, a painful looking signature move. Alias hooks the leg and says a prayer.
Alias manages to get up from the move, but he gets a boot in the mid-section by Russa, and then a
Gutwrench powerbomb. Alias’s lights go out, and Russa makes the cover.
Alias forces him into the turnbuckle pummeling Russa into submission with a hard cross punch from the left followed by a roundhouse punch from the right and an elbow uppercut. The last barrage of punches causes Russa to now hangs from the top rope. Alias singles to the crowd for the finish and whipping Russa from the corner.
Alias holds onto Russa’s wrist so that Alias is now behind his opponent, Alias hooks up Russa in a Full Nelson… and sweeps his legs out from under him… he continues to hold the Full Nelson and twists his legs to the side to give himself more leverage.
The fans in County Stadium erupts in cheers after witnessing the end of a very entertaining match, as The Full Nine once again blares over the speakers. The referee holds Alias’s hand up in victory, as Russa rolls out of the ring in disappointment. Alias raises his fist in victory to the crowd, a smile of relief and happiness on his face.
End Game was continuing to look brighter and brighter. The fans to give Alias a nice ovation while Courage heads backstage…
Winner: Alias
The End(Game) Is
Near! (See what I did there...)
As
the fans were looking forward to the Main Event, they instead were
treated with a shot of Winters sitting in his office, ready to speak to
the masses. "One
week, one week today is when ACW End Game will take place, and right
here...I have the card, which I'm going to announce right now, but
firstly I'd like to make a few announcements. ACW
End Game will no doubt be our best show yet, so I hope that all you
little people, save up your welfare money and buy it. Why don't a group
of you save up, and go and watch it over at someone's trailer, give you
all the chance to see it, at a lower cost. ACW
End Game will also make ACW Television history, as we beam all over
Great Britain for the first time ever and we are only the second US
Federation to beam PPV's live to the UK at 1am, and it will be on Sky
Box Office, channel 770, for the small price of £19.99. GREAT value for
money. To
the card. Well...firstly,
we will have Geo Vacton take on the Legend that is, and new
Winters INC member, Scott Perry. We
have two men who are relatively new here in ACW go at it as Brandon
Blade goes up against Branson Blair. In
a match that has just been sighed right now, by myself, we will have Dante
Inferno go up against Jason Kain, and that match, will have a
special stipulation, of a Fall Count Anywhere Match. As
you might have seen earlier, by new best friend Alias will take
on Max Douglas in a Last Man Standing match. Go Alias! The
TV Title Will be on the line when ICU takes on ToK. I
want a true Champion for the US Title, and that is why both Geo
Vacton and Jason Kain will fight two matches on the one
night, as they are two participants in a triple threat match for the US
Title which will involve Jay Smash also. Finally,
the announcement you have been waiting for, Osyrus will get, and
take his chance to retain the ACW World Title, against SilverHAWK
and this match will be a special 2 out of 3 falls match, it seems that
both us and WWE think alike, as this will be the match to end the series
between these two. We will not have different falls, however, the whole
match, will be under Hardcore rules. So
that is it folks, may I just say happy viewing, the PPV can be purchased
at ANY time, like now, and I hope that you enjoy...END GAME! Now, a word
from our sponsors..."
SilverHAWK & Jimmy Gonz Vs. Osyrus & ToK
SilverHAWK
and Osyrus have had their fair share of battles in ACW, and most of
them, have come away with a more or less even winner, as there is very
little between these two men, unlike some people would want you to
believe. During the commercial break which was prior to this match,
Osyrus and ToK had made their way to the ring, something which didn't
please the former ACW World Champion too much, but as him and ToK came
out tot he same theme tune, they seemed to have a pretty good relationship,
as they spoke with one another all the way down the ramp. But as
HAWK's theme played, and then arena erupted, the more than likely best
possible team in the current ACW Roster hit the scene, as both HAWK and
Jimmy Gonz began their short walk down to the ring. As Gonz and HAWK got
closer to the ring, ToK and Osyrus began to pace back to their end of
it, as Gonz jumped up to the ring apron and into the ring, the ACW
Champion dragged his belt up the steps and then passed it to Simon
Glass, the referee for the main event of the night. ToK tried to stand his count, but Gonz bumped him off of
his feet, and then ran to the other set of ropes. After a short sequence
of parrying moves, ToK rose to his feet as Gonz bounced off the ropes as
he tried a clothesline, much to his dismay he missed as it was rather
sloppy. Gonz punched ToK square on the nose as he turned around, as he
punched him into the ropes and then whipped him one again, and then
planted him to the mat with a body slam. Gonz stomped on ToK as he tried to squirm away and get a
tag, but Gonz kept him within reach and pulled him to his feet, before
suplexing him to the mat, and then placing him in a headlock on the mat,
squeezing ToK's head causing immense pressure. ToK wriggled as he tried
to get out of the move, but Gonz had ToK's face squashed against the mat
also, as he used his forearm to squash ToK's features... The crowd boo'd however as Osyrus jumped into the ring,
and kicked Gonz on the face, causing him to release the hold. HAWK
was ready to burst into the ring, but Gonz ushered him off. "I can handle this." Gonz picked up ToK, and brushed him off, the crowd, and
HAWK were confused. "Go and tag him in." ToK looked at Gonz as a small smile came from the veteran's
face, ToK looked over at his partner, who didn't know what was going on.
Gonz pushed ToK into his corner, and ToK inadvertently tagged the former
ACW Champion to his surprise. Osyrus looked into the center of the ring
as Gonz taunted him with the Rock's "Bring It On" as he got a
rise from the fan's inside the arena. Osyrus was now in the ring, with every step forward he
took, the anticipation in the arena heightened, as the two men were now
in the center of the ring, face to face. Osyrus looked at the
"nobody" and
slapped him in the face,
which got a huge
reaction from the crowd,
and from Gonz and he
slapped the taste out of
Osyrus' mouth in return,
as the two men began to
exchange right hands
back and forth. As
Osyrus got the better of
the exchange between the
two, he pushed Gonz into
the corner of the ring,
and began to hit him
hard with some shoulder
tackles, as Gonz's chest
took most of the impact.
Osyrus whipped Gonz to
the ropes, but as Gonz
hit the ropes, HAWK
slapped him in the back
for a blind tag. Gonz
ran at Osyrus, and
ducked his clothesline,
and then ducked another,
so as Osyrus turned
around... "Hey
asshole." WHAM! HAWK hit
Osyrus with a
clothesline that nearly
sent him out of his
boots, as ToK then
jumped into the ring,
and hit Gonz with a
clothesline to the back,
as he was making hit way
out of the ring. HAWK
turned around and
attacked ToK, whom tried
to fight back, but as
HAWK punched him over
the top rope, there was
little ToK could do.
Gonz jumped to the
outside and began to
fight with ToK, calling
him all sorts of names
as he smashed his head
into the ring steps, and
then threw him into the
side railing, ToK's back
receiving most of the
impact. Inside
the ring, HAWK picked
Osyrus up, and suplexed
him to the mat, placing
him in position...for a
top rope move? Na. HAWK climbed
to the second rope and
ala Steve Austin, jumped
off and stabbed Osyrus
in the heart with a
flying elbow, which was
just about how much HAWK
could go
"extreme!".
Outside of the ring, ToK
had reversed the tables,
as he reversed another
head smash into the ring
steps and slammed Gonz
to the mat with a
Russian leg sweep, and
then he was doing some
damage, throwing Gonz
into railings, the ring
apron, and the ring
steps also. As HAWK
got to his feet, he felt
a sudden pain in his
back, as ToK had came
from behind him and
clobbered him with a
right hand to the top of
the spine. HAWK fell to
his knee as he was now
at the mercy of both ToK
and Osyrus, both of whom
took small shots at him
each, before the referee
decided enough was
enough and tried to
through one of them out.
Osyrus tagged in ToK,
whom took it upon
himself to start to dissect
the champion. As ToK
had HAWK on the mat, he
softened him up with
some right hands, before
standing up, and jabbing
his knee, into HAWK's
right knee, which had
had numerous troubles
with in the past. HAWK squealed,
as he rolled around the
middle of the canvas, as
ToK got to his feet and
watched as Gonz was not
on his feet at ringside,
being helped up by the
fans as well! ToK
pointed Osyrus over to
him, to which Osyrus
quickly jumped down from
his position and ran
over to the long time
friend of the World
Champion. As Osyrus
pulled back a closed
fist, he slammed it
towards Gonz's nose,
only for it to be
blocked out of Gonz's
direction, as he
retaliated with his own
right hand, which sent
the crowd nearby into
extreme cheers. Gonz
punched Osyrus all the
way to the ring post at
the other side, and as
he looked to body splash
Osyrus on the actual
ring post, Osyrus ducked
to safety, as Gonz hit
the post running, a
large thud sounded as
flesh hit steel. "Good
work champ" ToK
shouted over at Osyrus,
as his partner smiled
back, but a smile soon
turned to shock. "BEHIND
YOU!" breakDOWN! ToK lay unconscious
on the mat as HAWK had delivered
his patented finishing maneuver
to the TV Champion
wannabe. As the referee
made the three count,
Osyrus didn't even try
to jump in the ring to
save the match from
ToK's sheer
inexperience, instead,
he made his way to the
ringside table, as the
fans exploded as the
referee made the third
and final count, but as Osyrus
entered the ring
with a steel chair in
hand, smashing it upon
HAWK's spine, the cheers
dampened as HAWK lay
flat out over ToK. Osyrus
pushed HAWK off of ToK,
and then pushed ToK out
of the way, he was never
part of this anyway, he
was just a means of
getting to HAWK in the
first place. HAWK looked
down at the "ACW
World Champion" and
thought about driving
the steel chair into his
face, but then common
sense prevailed. No Face. No
Match. No
Title. Instead
He jumped out of the
ring. "Watch
this Champ." He
hovered over to Gonz,
whom was still a little
dizzy from meeting the
pole at speed, but at
Gonz looked up, the
arena suddenly went
dark, as the chair
plummeted towards his
head, making such a
noise of sickening
impact that most of the
fans nearby looked away.
Osyrus repeated the act
to other parts of Gonz's
body. His
head. His
shoulder. His Hip. His
legs. It was
the second friend in the
a number of weeks that
Osyrus had destroyed,
and as he looked over at
HAWK, who was starting
to stir, he threw the
bent up chair into the
ring, which landed a few
feet from HAWK's face.
The Champion looked at
the molding of his best
friends body, and began
to cringe. "You'll
f...f...fucking
pay" he stuttered
as the former ACW
World Champion made his
way up the ramp. If one
man was ever the
under-dog, it was the
man in the ring, and the
problem was...even HAWK
knew that, but what's
the saying about
under-dogs? They'll
bite you in the ass soon
enough.
Winner: SilverHAWK
and Gonz
