PCW Hostile Takeover
Sunday, April 16, 2006
Live on Pay-Per-View from the sold-out Pure Class Arena in Greenville, South Carolina
(We open up with an inside view of the sold-out Pure Class Arena here in Greenville, South Carolina. The fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the latest PCW Pay-Per-View, which is titled, "Hostile Takeover." Hostile Takeover has a pretty solid card booked as we'll see current PCW World Champion Ace Anderson take on former HHW World Champion Geno, Grimm defend his International Championship against Mikey Wryght in Wryght's specialty of a Ladder Match, and we'll see, in the second of a Double Main Event, a Six-Man Tag Team Match, featuring the members of Nightmare 2 Society square off against Lantlas, Blade Lionheart, and subbing in for the injured Seth Sinn, The Prophet. And there'll be a few more others matches for this star-studded event that'll surely be enough to keep the fans in attendance, and the fans watching at home, happy. But unlike the fans at home, the fans that traveled and put in the money to watch Hostile Takeover live, they'll get a special treat, as The Byrd battles Jade in a Dark Match, which will be found available only on the special DVD version of the show when it's released. Mark Long, who is sporting a new look, complete with new haircut, is in the ring. He pulls a cue card out of his pocket, checks it over, and neatly shoves it back in his pocket. He raises a microphone which had been in his left hand, and begins to speak.)
Mark Long: Before we start the event, I would like to inform you that videotaping and recording this show is strictly prohibited. Also, laser lights are not allowed in the arena. If anyone is caught with one, they'll be escorted out of the building by security and will not receive any type of refund. And last but certainly not least, the antics displayed in and out of this ring are extremely dangerous and are performed by trained professionals. You should not try this at home. All in all, sit back and enjoy the show. The first match we have for you is a special bonus match for those of you in attendance. It'll feature Jade squaring off against The Byrd.
(Mark exits the ring and the competitors for the first match make their way out, starting off the event.)
Dark Match: Singles Match
The Byrd vs. Jade
Referee: Roberto Garcia
Match Details: The Byrd, fresh off a lose to World Champion Ace Anderson, squares off against PCW newcomer Jade, who picked up a huge win in her professional wrestling debut over the man that will be facing Ace here tonight, Geno. Once the two competitors make it down the aisle and enter the ring, the match starts, and the two square off. Like with Geno, Jade had to rely heavily on her speed and wits to stay competitive with her more muscular, male counterpart. The action was quick-paced from the offset, with Jade surprising Byrd with a backflip dropkick out of nowhere, which almost got her a three count at the very early beginnings of this match. Byrd was able to get the upperhand using his strength, which he had alot more of, since Jade was giving up over a hundred pounds! But in the end, Jade proved that brains always will win out on brawn, for, after 6 minutes of back and forth action, she managed to get The Byrd in the corner after he failed a Stinger's Splash, and then, she used the strength she does have to get The Byrd up on the top turnbuckle, and she delivered her Jaded, frankensteiner. As she crashing down with The Byrd, she hooks the legs, and Referee Roberto Garcia makes the three count, giving Jade her first PCW Pay-Per-View win...well...her first sorta PCW PPV win.
Winner
(Immediately following the match however, The Byrd, who is definitely feeling down after losing yet another match begins sulking out of the ring. As he makes his way up the entrance ramp, two fans in the front row catches his eye. He walks over towards them and begins chatting with them. After a moment, he hops over the rail, and he and the two men walk through the exit together. Loud chatter fills the arena following the wrestlers' departures from ringside, as the fans are now even more ansy for the actual Hostile Takeover event. But they don't have to wait any further, because Mark Long stands up from his seat with a microphone in hand, and announces.)
Mark Long: Ladies and gentlemen...show some noise...for Hostile Takeover is starting...NOW!
(Instantly, the PCW-Tron springs to life with a video hyping tonight's event. "24" by Jem soundtracks the video, with the video featuring events taking place at Game Over up until just this past Trauma. After about four minutes, the video finishes, and the feed cuts to the entrance stage. Fireworks and pyrotechnics immediately go off, and the fans cheer loudly at the spectacle. The feed then removes itself from the entrance ramp, and begins panning around the arena. The camera picks up such signs as, "American Nightmare is FAT", "Jade! Welcome to the PCW: Whore!", "PIRATE NINJAS RULE ALL", "Jesus Saved The Prophet", "Ace Got Schooled By The Byrd", "NCM IS CRAZY", "GOT ELF?", and various others. The feed then cuts to Jerry Andrews and Michael "The Man" Williams sitting at ringside.)
Jerry Andrews: Welcome everybody...as we are live here in Greenville, South Carolina...for PCW Hostile Takeover! I'm Jerry Andrews and to my left is my broadcast colleague, Michael "The Man" Hunt!
Michael "The Man" Williams: Jerry...for the love of God...you know my name is Williams. Michael "The Man" Williams!
Jerry Andrews: You're right, and my apologies. But speaking about God, I'd like to wish everyone for joining us on this Happy Easter evening. "The G Man" has had a heavy influence on tonight's event.
Mike Williams: What do you mean? How do you figure?
Jerry Andrews: Rumors have it that The Prophet has seen "the light". And we can't forget Benjamin Banks and Pegasus, two of the more vocal supporters of religion.
Mike Williams: And then we have an elf. What is this world coming to? Elves. Jerry...ELVES?!
Jerry Andrews: I have no ideas about that one, but Lantlas is surely one of the top competitors here in Pure Class Wrestling. No one can ever doubt that.
Mike Williams: I wouldn't argue against that, but I will argue against him being able to defeat Jason Willard and the rest of Nightmare 2 Society here tonight.
Jerry Andrews: Well, that still remains to be seen, but Lantlas has some help in the form of The Prophet and Blade Lionheart.
Mike Williams: I don't know how much Blade is going to help out matters, for he has been really less than effective since his arrival in the PCW. But Prophet is one of the most solid competitors we have on the roster. It should be an interesting bout.
Jerry Andrews: That's to say the least.
(Out of nowhere, "Devil's Dance" by Metallica plays and Anthony Douglas walks out from behind the entrance curtain, still in his street clothes.)
Jerry Andrews: What's HE doing out here?!
(Anthony slides into the ring, picks up a microphone and starts talking, but no sound comes out. The crowd is booing loudly, but Anthony doesn't seem to give a rat's ass about that. Anthony takes the faulty microphone and throws it to Mark Long, standing on the outside. He reaches out for another one, which Mark hands him without question. Anthony begins talking into the new mic, but still no sound. After 30 seconds, he throws it back at Mark and is handed ANOTHER one.)
Anthony Douglas: You going to give me something that works or am I going to have to beat your ass?
(The comment brings instant boos from this sold-out Greenville, South Carolina crowd.)
Jerry Andrews: Well, the microphones would have worked had he only clicked the switch on underneath the bottom of it.
Michael Williams: You want to tell HIM that?
Jerry Andrews: I regress.
Michael Williams: Thought so.
Anthony Douglas: Blade, you can come out here and cry and whine like the best of them. Ever since you got your ass kicked by me, you haven't done nothing but cry! You cry about how I didn't snap your leg, how I'm chicken shit, how I'm nothing and you're the best. Whatever. Son, you can you sit there and act all big and bad, but the fact of the matter is when it's crunch time, the Blade comes out here and gets crunched! Go back to the playground, Blade, because you've shown the only person you can beat is a 10 year old wearing a t-shirt.
(The crowd gives mixed reactions as Anthony continues.)
Anthony Douglas: You talk about being such a tough guy. I had to deal with that shit for four years and when I get out, I have to fight for a living because no one wants to deal with a felon who hates humanity! I was supposed to face you, Lantlas and Seth tonight, but since Seth's developed a vagina and he's home nursing an injury and his newly acquired PMS, you guys get The Prophet! Lantlas knows without Seth Sinn, he's nothing. . .hell, he's nothing even with Seth Sinn! As for The Prophet, I've got a big stack of psalm books, and I can tell you where you can stick each and every one of them!
Jerry Andrews: This guy's a real class act, isn't he?
Mike Williams: Maybe I should try to get in that class.
Anthony Douglas: "The Captain" only put you in this match, Prophet, because he wanted to make it even. So, all I want out of "The Captain" and the PCW is for the three walking corpses to bring their asses out here right now! Don't worry about putting on your wrestling gear, because this isn't going to be a wrestling match! I don't want to wrestle you three....I don't want wrestle you because, at least for Blade and Lantlas, this will never be over so long as I'm breathing air! I'll take all three of you on right now...we don't need a referee, we don't need a bell! All you need are the nuts to come forward, in a fight right now, and you've got one G-d damn minute! You've got one minute...
(Anthony drops the microphone and waits in the ring in his fighting stance, just hoping his three competitors for later on in the evening step out from the back.)
Mike Williams: I wonder if his Nightmare 2 Society teammates know that he's out here, issuing challenges to their three opponents, single-handily.
Jerry Andrews: I wouldn't be surprised if this was a ploy for Douglas and N2S to get Lantlas, Prophet, and Blade out to the ring, so they can ambush them.
(About a minute of waiting goes bye, and Anthony reaches down to grab the microphone. But before he can bring it back up to his lips, a tune that may be recognizable as, "The Captain" by Dylan Moses begins to play. From out of the back, through the entrance curtain, steps "The Captain" Alejandro Walker. Walker is carrying a large metal briefcase, and is smiling quite a bit.)
Jerry Andrews: Wow. The PCW President has a new theme song.
Michael Williams: Yeah, it's very fitting, I'd say.
Jerry Andrews: But what I want to know is...what is "The Captain" doing out here and what's in that briefcase?
Michael Williams: I have no clue, but if he wants to live, he might wanna turn and go back through that entrance curtain. I wouldn't try walking to the ring with "The Wolverine" standing there.
(But "The Captain" wasn't going to be walking to the ring while Anthony is awaiting...atleast, not alone. Walker had paused for a moment, and a couple of seconds later, about twelve guards step from behind the entrance curtain.)
Jerry Andrews: Welp..."The Captain" was smart enough to bring backup.
Michael Williams: Which means he has officially used up all his braincells.
("The Captain" and the guards walk down the entrance ramp and into the ring, while Anthony is looking shocked and enraged by this. Once Walker and Co. enter the ring, his n Anthony raises the microphone up to his lips, and begins to talk.)
Anthony Douglas: Look here, son. You're not Prophet, Lantlas, or that little yella-bellied Blade Lionheart either. And you standing in this ring is really starting to piss me off, so I'd advise you to take your goons and get out before I have to whoop your ass!
(The crowd boos and "The Captain's" jolly expression changes to pure intensity before he responds.)
"The Captain" Alejandro Walker: Now you listen up, here, alrigh? You aren't the PCDuyah President...I am!
(The crowd cheers. Anthony goes to speak, but "The Captain" cuts him off.)
"The Captain": Save ya words, 'cuz they gone be falling on deaf ears. I've had just about 'nuff of you and ya buddies running around here causin' all sorts of ruckus. You think I'ma be da dumb one and let Prophet, Lantlas, and Blade come on down here so Willard and Nightmare could gone done sneak attack 'em? Maybe that lil' Destiny Willard gone try somethin' to. No...not goin' to happen. And Douglas...you even think on puttin' ya hands on me, you'll get a one-way ticket out of the PCDuyah, just like dat darn Johnny Vivacious!
(Huge pop.)
"The Captain": I know you don't really care 'bout 'nuffin, but you really won't care when they gone get you with lawsuits, more jail time, and whole more things, I'd reckon. So this is all you gone do...exit the ring...go to the back...and wait til ya match gone start. And if you gone have a problem wit dat, then aye...if the PCDuyah doors can open to let ya in, they sure can open to let ya out!
("The Captain" gets another pop, as Anthony is in the ring, mauling over his decisions. After about 10 seconds, he decides it's just not worth it, and exits the ring, stage left. Once Anthony is gone, "The Captain's" demeanor becomes jolly again and he begins speaking.)
"The Captain": Now dat dat is out of da way, I can go 'bout conductin' some business. Now, I gone think you done seen the briefcase I had brought down to the ring wit me, and it's for good reason. Inside it is the newest PCDubyah Championship.
(Walker gets some cheers, as he continues.)
"The Captain": It's name gone be the PCDuyah Genesis Championship. It's gone have some restrictions to it aswell. First off, it's gone have a stipulation in it where dere is gonna be no count-out! Now, dis doesn't mean it gonna be a hardcore championship. Any weaponry seen bein' used will be cause for immediate disqualification. And yes, dis title can change hands on a disqualification. Secondly, falls must occur in the ring, except on dat disqualification charge. Also, dey gonna be a standard fifteen minute time limit in these matches. There is gonna be no weight class, height class, or gender specific qualifications for da title, and like the other PCW Championships, all wrestlers will be eligible. I'ma announce the details surroundin' the title's activation and when it is gone be activated on the PCDubyah website, so I'd advise everyone to keep checkin' up on it. Dat's it. Enjoy the show, ya'll!
(And with that, "The Captain" exits the ring, security trailing. The feed then cuts to the PCW-Tron, and on it, a seemingly impatient Miguel Malone is standing and waiting for his air-time to commence. Miguel is holding a microphone in one hand while adjusting his black beret-like hat with the other.)
Cameraman: And three...two...one...
(Miguel springs into action in front of the rolling camera and puts on his arrogant smile.)
Miguel Malone: OK, people...here's what's going on. I am waiting out here in the cold doing nothing...scratch that. I'm waiting to go and get an interview with a garbage man. His room is just down here, but I have been made to wait by this moron...
(Miguel points to the cameraman.)
Miguel Malone: Look man! I'm Miguel Michael Malone! The original M&M&M himself! I am related to the greatest wrestling superstar in the business, that being "The Icemann" Luis Malave, YOUR boss. I can do my interviews when I want, get it?!
(The camera nods up and down to signify a reluctant agreement and Miguel composes himself again.)
Cameraman: Hey man, the last time you interviewed Non Compos Mentis, didn't you end up getting hit?
Miguel Malone: He caught me off guard! Wait...no...no I didn't! STOP LAUGHING GREASE MONKEY! Anyway...
(Miguel starts to walks down the corridor, as does the cameraman, who shifts the camera along clumsily. After a few seconds they reach the door to Mentis's dressing room but before Miguel can knock on the door a woman's voice is heard.)
Woman: Tonight is your night Mentis. Tonight you get to take back what is rightfully yours...that North American Championship. Not only that, but you get payback against that bastard Banks who screwed you at Game Over. Tonight...you will put yourself firmly back in the race for the World Title and another shot at Ace Anderson. Trust me Mentis, win tonight...and your life will become better than it has ever been. Just remember one thing...win at any cost. Who cares about the crowd? Who cares about sportsmanship? You are there to win...and only a win. You're not there for gratitude. Go out there and show that you are not the same person that lost to Johnny Vivacious two times in a row. Go out there and prove you are better!
(At that the voices stop and sounds are heard inside the room. Steps are heard walking towards the door and Miguel makes a quick dash to hide behind the cameraman for protection. The door opens and out steps Non Compos Mentis, who is wearing his typical gear. NCM then walks up to Miguel.)
Non Compos Mentis: How much did you hear?
(Miguel cowers a little further, but defiantly speaks.)
Miguel Malone: All of it.
Non Compos Mentis: Good.
(Mentis walks back into his dressing room and closes the door behind him. Miguel stands up, regains his composure and gives the, "cut" signal to the cameraman. The PCW-Tron shuts off, as the camera cuts to Mark Long standing in the ring, preparing to make the introduction of the first match.
Match One: Singles Match
Pegasus vs. Brian "Atlas" McNight
Referee: Tim Jones
Pegasus vs. Brian "Atlas" McNight
Referee: Tim Jones
Mark Long: The following match is scheduled for one fall and has a 15 minute time limit. Entering the ring first...
(The arena lights fade into flashes of blue as Nine Inch Nails's, "The Hand That Feeds" starts playing. "Atlas" walks from behind the entrance curtain onto the stage.)
Mark Long: ...standing in at 6 feet, 3 inches and weighing in at 260 lbs...he's from Houston, Texas...Brian..."Atlas"...McNight!
(Brian stretches his arms diagonally and looks upward. Lowering his arms, he looks to either side of the crowd then charges into the ring. After he gets into ring he climbs up the nearest turnbuckle and looks toward the entrance awaiting Pegasus.)
Jerry Andrews: For a man who walked out on his last match, he sure is mighty comfortable looking.
Mike Williams: I would be too if I wasn't pinned or made submit.
Jerry Andrews: He still got the loss.
Mic Williams: A physical loss, maybe. But he's definitely winning mentally. He's going into this match thinking he's undefeated, and he's going to try his best to remain in that train of thought.
Mark Long: And his opponent...
(The lights flicker for a few moments before shutting off completely as, "Leap of Faith" by Egypt Central starts playing. Several spotlights begin to shine throughout the arena, swinging wildly over the crowd for a few seconds before they all come to stop at the top of the entrance ramp. Kneeling inside their light is Pegasus, head lowered. He slowly rises up from his kneeling position to a standing one, and the arena lights come back on as he does so.)
Mark Long: ...weighing in at 213 lbs. and standing at 5 feet and 10 inches...from Minneapolis, Minnesota...Pegasus!
(Peggy walks his way down the ramp, alternating sides to give high fives to the fans as he does. He slides under the bottom rope upon reaching the ring and runs to one of the far corners. He hops up to the second turnbuckle, and raises both his arms up into the air. As Peggy is posing, Atlas sneaks behind him and hits him with a clubbing blow to the back. Referee Tim Jones immediately calls for the bell, for the match to start.)
Ding! Ding! Ding!
(Atlas continues to pound Peggy's back, eventually getting Peggy on one knee.)
Jerry Andrews: Atlas is wasting no time in trying to get the advantage on Pegasus.
Michael Williams: Which is a really smart thing too, I may add.
(Atlas picks up Peggy, and immediately places him into a bearhug, trying to suck the life out of Pegasus before Pegasus can mount an attack. After having Pegasus in the bearhug for nearly two minutes straight, the fans in attendance begin chanting, "Boring! Boring! Boring!")
Jerry Andrews: The fans are becoming very vocal with their criticism of Mr. McNight's strategy.
Michael Williams: Well...they're not the ones having to get inside the ring and wrestle. So they really don't have the right to say anything.
(Referee Tim Jones checks on Pegasus to see if he had passed out, and once he realizes he hasn't, he begins asking him if he wants to give up the match. Pegasus, being the former World, Tag Team, and International Champion he is, shouts out, "No!" After another 40 seconds of excruciating pain, Brian realizes this isn't going to finish Pegasus off, so a new strategy has to come into place. Atlas whips Pegasus into the ropes, and when Peggy bounces back, Atlas connects with a diving lariat [ala Undertaker]. He grabs Pegasus by his head, and brings him back onto his feet. He grabs him and presses Pegasus three times over his head.)
Michael Williams: Wow! That man is STRONG!
Jerry Andrews: Well, there was never any questioning of his strength.
(With a smirk on his face, he stalls and holds Pegasus in the air after body pressing him three times. But before he can drop Peggy with the Gorilla Press Slam, Pegasus slides down the back of Atlas and shoves him into the ropes.)
Jerry Andrews: And Pegasus with his first offensive maneuver of the match.
Michael Williams: Well, technically, it was a defensive move.
Jerry Andrews: You wanna run play by play?
Michael Williams: Nah, not really.
Jerry Andrews: Alright then.
(When Atlas comes bouncing back, Pegasus positions him into a Rock Bottom stance. He takes a second to look into the crowd, and leaps backwards, still with Atlas, hitting the C4/Imploder maneuver.)
Jerry Andrews: Wow! Look at the agility!
Michael Williams: Even I'm impressed.
Jerry Andrews: I'm getting word he likes to call that the Redeemer.
(Pegasus though, instead of making the pin, feels one more spot is needed, so he mounts the top ropes. Pegasus looks out to the crowd, and they know he's ready to attempt his Leap of Faith move. He stalls for too long though, for Atlas quickly rolls out the ring and begins walking up the entrance ramp. He never looks back as the referee counts the mandatory ten count.)
Jerry Andrews: Well, Pegasus took too long on the top rope, but it appears that Atlas doesn't want anymore and is heading towards the back.
(The referee reaches the ten count, and Pegasus jumps down off his perch. The bell is sounded and Mark Long announces the winner.)
Mark Long: The winner of the match...by count-out...Pegasus!
(Pegasus gets his hand raised, but you can tell he, and the crowd is disappointed.)
Jerry Andrews: I guess a win's a win.
Michael Williams: If I am Pegasus, I'm jumping for joy for picking up a victory. Especially against a man who would have defeated me.
Jerry Andrews: Well, Atlas did have the match under control for the first few minutes, but this match barely hit the seven minute mark and he already called it a night. Seems like a coward's way out to me.
Michael Williams: Or an incredibly smart man's.
(No other words are muttered as the feed immediately cuts to the PCW-Tron. The scene opens up in the locker room of one “Mr. Showtime” Mikey Wryght. There had been no signs of him entering from outside the arena, but alas there he is. Passed out in a folding chair is Showtime, who is now starting to come to. It had been all a dream, everything…but it was so real. Showtime is dressed in his ring gear and is still wearing the bronze mask that he had been sporting the last few weeks. He gets to his feet and stumbles a bit but seems unharmed. He walks over to the wall and allows light to illuminate the room, for he has no idea how long he had been sleeping. He makes it to the table where there is a basket of fruit and some bottles of water. He takes a few big gulps and can’t understand why he has the taste of sand in his mouth. He sits back down and notices that there is a book underneath his chair and a golden ring with a ruby stone in it. The ruby stone was shaped into the form of an eye, and Showtime now knows that none of his adventures at the temple were a dream.)
Showtime: This cannot be. It was all true.
(Showtime opens the book and it is the journal of the old man that he had met at the temple. It is an account of all that days that had pasted and Showtime had finally begun to understand what this was all about. Reading it over he begins to get the background of the ancient people that were described to him and he knew that he had a purpose to fulfill.)
Showtime: It is time that the infidels all pay for the harm that they caused…Starting with Phinehas Grimm.
(The lights go off again and we leave Showtime laughing like a mad man. He has finally lost his mind and bought into everything that has been fed to him over the last week. He would get his and their revenge starting this week. The maniacal laugh could be heard echoing through the hallways of the backstage area as the scene fades to black and cuts to snow.)
