(The scene changes to show our host seated at a newsdesk in the EFW TV studios. There are many screens behind him showing the EFW logo, closeups of it's stars, interviews, matches, etc)


Rasslin' Robbie: "Hey wrestling fans, welcome to Friday Night Massacre! I'm your new host, straight from Da Bronx, Rasslin' Robbie! Instead of sitting you in one arena we're gonna show you highlights from this week's EFW matches around the entire country. Let's open the show with one of the best known stars, Hare Razer, as he takes on Prodigy Wednesday night in Denver, Colorado..."




Hare Razer vs Prodigy


Hare Razer came to the ring alone and wasted no time waving or greeting fans. Prodigy did go through the salutations and hand slapping and the crowd appreciated it. As soon as the bell rang, Prodigy charged. As Hare Razer went for an overhand slap, Prodigy ducked, catching the big man with a DROP TOE HOLD. Once down, Prodigy then climbed his back and worked an ARM BAR on Razer. Hare Razer got to his feet with Prodigy still on his back though, and rammed him into the ringpost. He followed by whipping him into the opposite post. Prodigy hit chest first, slamming his windpipe on the top turnbuckle. Hare Razer followed in with a big RAZER SPLASH, smashing both fists into Prodigy's kidneys. Razer backed up, set to charge again, as Prodigy spit a mouthful of blood out and turned, unable to breathe at all. He surprised the rushing Razer with a boot to the big man's gut and tried to regain some momentum with a HIGH CROSS BODY PRESS off the ropes but the man called Red Death was too strong. He caught Prodigy in mid air and POWERBOMBED him savagely. A pin would have done it there but Hare Razer picked him up and slapped on the DEATH EMBRACE just to make it official. Prodigy waved for the bell and Hare Razer dropped him to the canvas, leaving without waiting for the ref to make the announcement.


Hare Razer wins via Submission (Death Embrace) at 3:12





RR: "Wow, that was one of the quickest matches I've ever seen, and I've seen plenty! Hare Razer seems to be getting more and more vicious with every fight. Now later on that night Vicious Alliance member Devastation met up with Vigilante Nomad. Here's how that went down..."




Devastation vs Nomad


These two were at each other before the bell and it continued for 3 minutes with each man mounting an impressive run. Nomad started early and got in several mounted punches in the corner, opening Devastation up, as the crowd counted happily. Jazz was at ringside cheering her man on and it seemed to help. Then it was Devastation's turn however, he reversed a FULL NELSON SUPLEX and also the momentum of the match. laying blow after blow into Nomad's back, he brought the Boston native to his knees. Devastation then charged the ropes and screamed at Jazz to shut up. She seemed stunned but only for a second as she answered right back...with a slap to the face! The VA wildman lost it! Jazz jumped down from the apron and scurried alongside the ring as Devastation mockingly stalked her. Nomad regained his senses here though and came to his lady's rescue. A BASEBALL SLIDE to the back knocked Devastation into the barrier and Nomad followed up with repeated kicks to the neck. As devastation lay gasping, Nomad helped Jazz to the ramp and motioned for her to go to the back. He then rolled Devastation back in right before the count ended and wrapped it up with an IRISH WHIP to the ropes ending in a La MAGISTRAL rollup. A hefty handful of tights kept Devastation still enough to get the three count.


Nomad wins via pinfall (La Magistral) at 5:13





RR: "How do you like that! The vets of the EFW taking care of business in their own distinct styles. But immediately after having the ref raise Nomad's hand declaring him the winner, Hare Razer's 2001 theme music began again. Nomad looked around and watched as Hare Razer came down the ramp with President Giove. Devastation rolled out of the ring and stood to the side with his fellow VA members. Eazy and co. seemed to appear from nowhere out of the crowd and the Vigilantes and Jazz came down the ramp slowly behind the president. The crowd was got amped as they expected an all-out war and chants for all three teams began. President Giove entered the ring (with security) and waited for Hare Razer to stand to his right before asking for a mic and making this announcement. Roll the tape:"



(The tape begins....)


Giove: "Denver Colorado...Have we seen some stuff here tonight??!!"

(The crowd cheers)

Giove: "Well, it's not over. You're gonna see more of your favorites but first I have a special announcement to make. Here in the ring with me I have Hare Razer, possibly the most dangerous man in the league and a true superstar..."

(Scattered cheers and boos are heard)

Giove: "And I also have Nomad, arguably the greatest figure our league has ever presented..."

(Cheers abound)

Giove: "We have seen the return to greatness from both men and that is why I am here tonight."

(The crowd quiets as they don't know what to make of this. Giove milks it for all it's worth.One of the guards hands him a few sheets of paper. Giove pretends to study them for awhile until the crowd starts to get restless)

Giove: "Well EFW fans, looking over our rankings I see that these two men are top contenders, each deserving a title shot and I'm sure you all wouldn't mind seeing that happen. Am I right?"

(The crowd cheers)

Giove: "Well, by the power vested in me as the President of Extreme Firepro Wrestling...I am sanctioning two title matches for next week!!!"

(The crowd erupts. Destructo & Corruption look angrily at the ring)

Giove: "Due to the controversial surroundings of their last meetings you will see Nomad once again battle Corruption for the US Title next week."


(There are cheers and boos. Corruption is livid, stomping up and down cursing wildly)


Giove: "And you will also see Hare Razer face Destructo for the World Title."


(Cheers roar and Eazy T high fives Murray then leads his entourage toward the ring. As they approach, so do The Vigilantes and The entire VA, led by a frothing Destructo)


Giove: "I see we have the groups of all concerned here with us at this time. That's good because there is one thing I didn't get to yet."


(Giove puts a sly smile on his face and the guards surrounding him move to form a barrier between him and the Alliance. Eazy goes to pat Hare Razer on the back)


Giove: "There will be one very important rule that will be placed over both of next week's matches...If ANY ONE from either group so much as steps one foot on that ramp, their teammate will be immediately disqualified and slapped with a loss."


(Devastation whispers into Corruption's ear and the two begin smiling)


Giove: "Oh, did I forget to mention that this DQ will also affect the title and will cost the holder the belt."


(Destructo charges Giove but is met by the guards. Eazy's family surround him and the Vigilantes surround Nomad and Jazz. Hare Razer pulls his sickle and stands unfazed. Giove turns to face the VA and the Vigilantes)


Giove: "So we all know the rules now. Nomad and Corruption will meet one more time for the US Title...no interference, no fancy stuff...unless they want an easy DQ."


(He then turns to face the RAG/RWO)


Giove (pointing to Hare Razer's sickle): "And Hare Razer will meet Destructo for the World Title under the same rules."


(OCJ proceeds to curse out the president, Eazy T just laughs and shakes his head)


Giove: "I have spoken. Now let's get back to tonight's action." (end of tape)




RR (standing up excited): "Man! You talk about the prez laying the smack down! There's a show you're not gonna wanna miss So pop the tape in, set the timer, and keep the kids away form the VCR cause that one's gonna be hot!"


(A quick teaser for the two matches runs onscreen. When it's done Robbie is again sitting at the desk)


RR: "Tonight's next match takes place in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at the Terry Bradshaw Memorial Coliseum. The night after that announcement the Vigilantes were there in full force representing to the max. Let's see what went down..."




Scorpion vs BMF, Jr


These two powerhouses faced off for a good match. BMF demonstrated every SUPLEX known to man as Scorpion withstood them all. When it was his turn, Scorpion was equally ineffective with his joint attack moves. Even though BMF took quite some punishment on his left knee he was still able to hold out, repeatedly rolling out of the ring for breathers. Scorpion complained to the ref over and over but to no avail. After gaining two successive 2 counts, Scorpion could see the end near. He laid a vicious STANDING SWEEP on BMF, Jr and went after the leg. BMF always seemed to be able to reach the ropes however this time it didn't look like he would make it. It didn't matter as he simply reached down and kicked Scorpion in the jewels as he was attempting a FIGURE FOUR. BMF then showed something new and locked in an ANKLE HOLD. His inexperience showed as Scorpion too crawled to the ropes. At the 9 minute mark both men got desperate. BMF delivered a crushing POWERBOMB WHIP, looking to soften Scorp up but as he walked over Scorpion kicked him in the bread basket and tripped him. As the crowd counted down the final ten seconds in the match, Scorpion locked in his always dangerous SCORPION DEATHLOCK. The ref told Scorpion to drop it as the bell sounded though. 10 minutes after it began both men still wanted more.


Scorpion and BMF, Jr. battle to a Time Limit Draw (10:00)




RR: "Pretty boring stuff if you ask me but I guess our "technicians of the sport" found it engrossing. Give me the pain and I'm happy! Speaking of pain, The Great Panther showed Scorpion's partner Rebel what it was all about..."




Great Panther vs Rebel


Panther dominated this one from the start. DRAGON SCREWS, HIP TOSSES, AND ARM WHIPS kept Panther in control and the match on the mat. Rebel's high flying style seemed to be effectively grounded until Striker came down to ring and urged his teammate on. Rebel changed his tactics and instead starting going low. TOE STOMPS looked to be the special of the day as Rebel looked to hobble The Great One and gain some operating room. Panther caught Rebel in the corner for a 2 count and then repeated that in the middle of the ring. Rebel got frustrated and began making mental errors that Panther took advantage of. After a stunning SIDE KICK to the head, Great Panther went to the top rope. BIG MISTAKE! Rebel seemed to sense something and raced to the corner. The two battled on the top turnbuckle almost falling off twice. Punches were exchanged back and forth and it looked to turn into a brawl until Rebel did the now famous Vigilante Drop. Sitting down on the turnbuckle he grabbed GP's trunks and fell backward. Panther slammed face first into the mat and got up dizzy. Rebel launched a FLYING CLOTHESLINE and got a close 2 count. As GP kicked out, rebel bounced off the ropes and landed a KNEEDROP to the stomach. He stood Panther up, laid in two chops to the chest, then followed up with a NECKBREAKER DROP. He quickly landed a STANDING MOONSAULT for the pin. 1...2...Panther kicked out! However it was close and the ref said he was too late. Striker rushed in to help the exhausted Rebel as Panther argued the count. Accepting the decision he did catch up to Rebel on the ramp and shake hands as all three went back to the dressing rooms.


Rebel wins via Pinfall (Standing Moonsault) at 6:57




RR:: "Now that's what I call entertainment! Those guys gave a show and still showed sportsmanship at the end. Now sportsmanship is NOT what we'll see form our next competitors. First we have the rule breakers extraordinaires, Weehawk & Bane, otherwise known as Sick & Sexy. They faced off against TMATM members Starfire and Zodiac in a rematch of last week's 2-minute massacre. History usually repeats itself in these cases..."
Sick & Sexy vs Starfire & Zodiac


Another well balanced matchup occurred here as Starfire started out against Bane. In their match at Bloodsport Starfire caught what may have been the fastest defeat of his career. He was looking to avoid that reoccurrence. He laid into Bane with an all around attack while Bane, as usual, focused on the legs. Starfire & Zodiac kept the Sicko off balance with quick tags and cutting the ring in half. Weehawk managed the most visible results when he caught Zodiac in the corner. Even though he was in the TMATM corner he fared strongly. A quick FOREARM SMASH knocked Starfire from the apron which led to an eye rake against Zodiac. While Starfire tried to complain to the ref, the Sickos went to work, however. Bane stretched Zodiac around the ringpost as Weehawk landed midsection kicks. Zodiac managed to push Weehawk away and tag in Starfire at the 4 minute mark but not before he received serious damage. Upon reaching the corner he simply collapsed unconscious to the floor. Later examinations revealed broken ribs on both sides. Starfire held his own against Sick & Sexy by slowing the pace down considerably. Starfire held his own by being methodical as opposed to his usual reckless style. Bane tagged in and tried to take out Starfire's leg again but had no success. After a particuliarly damaging DROPKICK by Starfire, Bane stumbled to his corner to tag. Starfire ran behind him and LARIATED him over the top rope here!! As he went over, Weehawk tried to grab his hand to balance him but couldn't get a grip. The ref saw this as a clean tag however and signalled that Weehawk was the legal man. Weehawk never noticed and looked down to help Bane. Starfire, quickly running out of gas, saw he had just one chance left. He wrapped a CHICKEN WING FACELOCK on weehawk and catapulted him backwards over the top into the ring! The littlest Sicko hit hard and was stunned. Starfire leaped on the fallen Sicko and went for the leg. The ref dropped to the mat and went to check on Weehawk. Between his pain and the drop into the ring, Weehawk was in never-never land.The ref asked twice and Weehawk tapped out.


Starfire & Zodiac win via Submission (Knee Remover) at 9:14




RR: "Wow! That was a surprise. Maybe those Teammates Against Teammates guys will finally get their acts together now. Don't go away, we'll be back after this quick message."


(A commercial showing EFW officially licensed merchandise runs. The items most focused on are the Zombie masks and makeup, the lookalike championship belts, and the EFW logo leather jacket along with the entire line of action figures and models)


RR: "OK, we're back for our last segment and I'm gonna show you some hardcore EFW action as it can only happen here. Just earlier tonight in downtown New Orleans Marty the Mauler, Sweet Daddy, & Warpath faced off in a 3-man Elimination match against Jigoku Rabbit's zombies. The zombies didn't receive a great welcome from the superstitious southerners but that didn't bother them. What was strange was that Jigoku wasn't there..."



3-Man Elimination Match
Marty The Mauler/Sweet Daddy/Warpath
vs
Fleshmonger/Parasite/Leech



The zombies came down to the ring alone leaving everyone a bit bewildered as to where their leader, Jigoku Rabbit, was. Leech seemed in control as The Evil Dead quietly followed him down and took their places in their corner. Fleshmonger climbed into the ring ready to start it off then Marty's team was announced. Sweet daddy was scheduled to start against Fleshmonger but after a minute and a half of no show, Marty himself came down looking rather pissed. He talked to the ref and took the lead in Daddy's place. It was wild as Marty seemed to take out his anger at Sweet daddy on the zombie. Only problem? Zombie's don't feel pain. Marty unloaded with a host of technical moves but couldn't get the zombie off his feet. Fleshmonger broke hold after hold yet couldn't catch up to Marty to do any damage. At the 4 minute mark Sweet Daddy did indeed come to ringside but instead of fighting he made a pit stop at the announcer's table and grabbed a mic. Marty backed off and Fleshmonger made a tag to Leech in this time as SD apologized publicly for his lateness. His "excuse" was that he was busy getting his new HWA emblem finished. Showing off his new logo on his gold chain he also added a "Sorry about the belt, Gangsta, but something it sure looks better now, don't it?" Marty was in no joking mood though and threw Daddy into the ring, snatching off the chain. Daddy went to argue with Marty but Leech showed no pause. He attacked daddy with a claw slash to the back and wrapped on a reverse DDT before dragging him to the zombie corner. Already groggy, SD tried to fight back but was whipped to the ropes by Leech. Leech then made the tag and Fleshmonger caught SD with a ROLLING ELBOW from the apron. Daddy immediately fell to the floor unconscious even before the zombie entered the ring. The ref called for the bell and SD was dragged out


Fleshmonger wins via Critical at 6:54


Warpath went to tend to SD as Marty climbed in. Still a bit tired from his opening effort, he fell quickly to the zombie's onslaught. Only some excellent teamwork saved him. He IRISH WHIPPED Fleshmonger to the ropes where Warpath grabbed his leg. On the ground Marty laid in the fastest combo ever seen! LEGDROP, DIVING FIST, then a DOUBLE KNEE PRESS seemed to finally hurt the zombie. Marty then picked Fleshmonger up and delivered a textbook EASY 3. Warpath again held the foot and solidified Marty's win.


Marty wins via pinfall (Easy 3) at 10:03


As the ref sent the wrestlers to their corners, Marty tagged in Warpath. WP looked tentative at facing Parasite who seemed almost docile. Without Jigoku shouting instructions to the Dead they seemed to lack focus. Warpath easily evaded Parasite's grasp exposing the zombie's only weakness. They were just too slow. After 5 minutes of this Warpath tagged Marty back in after being relatively untouched. Marty repeated the attack he laid on Fleshmonger but it didn't work at all. Parasite's power attack was too much. Marty was tired and dizzy in 2 minutes and laid motionless after a powerbomb. As Parasite picked him up for the GIFT TO THE GODS Marty ended his ruse and reached up, pulling Parasite's mask down over his face. Blinded, the zombie was an easy victim of another EASY 3 and as before, Warpath assisted with the old grab-the-foot- routine. Marty quickly retreated to his corner and tagged in Warpath to face Leech.


Marty wins via pinfall (Easy 3) at 14:32


Leech attacked wildly, clawing and scratching Warpath so viciously his outfit was shredded within minutes. Warpath almost lost his tights before he tagged in Marty. At this point Marty was running on pure will power. He had to be exhausted but faced the rabid zombie fearlessly. Leech was just too much for the HWA champ at this point. Marty was in the ring for about 30 seconds before Leech wrapped on the ZOMBIE STRANGULATION and Marty was done. As Warpath made a move to break the hold Marty waved him off. He held on for another 14 seconds before tapping out, giving WP some additional time to rest. As the Mauler exited the ring he said something to his protege and Warpath seemed to have a renewed vigor. He avoided every move Leech tried instead of dealing with them. This version of rope-a-dope, which also worked against Parasite, had the tiny zombie tired quickly. Warpath dodged & ducked DROPKICKS, UPPERCUTS, and even used his leverage to toss Leech through the ropes after a failed FOOTBALL TACKLE. While Leech was regaining himself outside Warpath taunted him doing his own impression of the zombie's hiss. Leech charged back in but had nothing left to run on. As soon as he climbed in Warpath caught him with a LOBOTOMY KICK right to the chin. The zombie spun around and Warpath delivered another kick to the back of his head. Leech bounced off the ropes and fell right into a THIRD STRAIGHT KICK!!! That was enough as Leech just crumpled to the mat dripping blood from his mouth. Warpath made an easy pin and exited to meet Marty who was sitting at ringside.


Warpath wins via pinfall at 20:53


The zombies left ringside and still there was no sign of Jigoku. Warpath helped Marty up the ramp, who was having trouble walking and held his lower back all the way up the ramp.


Marty/Warpath/Sweet Daddy defeat The Evil Dead/Leech



(note: Warpath really did get off three straight Lobotomy kicks to end this one. Wild!)


RR: "Now THAT was a helluva match! Where else but in the EFW are you gonna see action like that? Sorry to disagree with Marty but no other fed has the action you'll see here. OK, that's enough of the taped matches, now I'm gonna send you live to Fulton-County Stadium where tonight's Main Event is about to start. The EFW Cruiserweight Champ Xtreme Gangsta takes on Shadow in a tables & ladders match. This one I gotta see! Jim? Buck? It's all yours!"




MAIN EVENT
Xtreme Gangsta vs Shadow
Rematch for the Cruiserweight Strap
Table and Ladders Match



(Shadow's music hits. Shadow emerges from the curtain, a look of pure determination engulfs his face.. The crowd instantly pops for him. As he makes his way to the ring, the camera pans around it. The entire ringside area is engrossed with tables. Inside the ring ladders and chairs litter the canvas.)



A loud explosion comes over the P.A., "Natural Born Killaz" by Ice Cube and Dr. Dre. rocks the arena. XTREMEGANGSTA stalks out from behind the curtain, barbedwire baseball bat in hand. Mostly boos can be heard, but some intermittent cheers are audible. XTREME flips off the crowd and curses his way to the ring. The camera focuses around his waist, THE HWA TITLE BELT???? As he gets to ringside, some loser in an HWA T-shirt starts yelling at XTREME , he wraps the barbedwire baseball bat around his head)




Shadow seeing a great opportunity hits Gangsta with a flying clothesline from a 15 foot ladder. He than levels Gangsta with a variety of kicks outside of the ring. Shadow then pulls him into the ring. Shadow grabs a table and throws it into the ring. He enters the ring and puts Gangsta on the table. He scales a 10 foot ladder near the ropes. Gangsta gets up and pushes Shadow when he reaches the peak. Shadow crashes through a table outside of the ring with a sickening thud. Gangsta, with an evil gleam in his eye grabs a chair and a 20 foot ladder, he climbs it and drops an Arabian facebuster on Shadow while he is lying on the concrete floor. Shadow's face is a bloody mess, Gangsta tries to get up and crashes into the concrete floor, face first. Both men lie on the ground for about 30 seconds, EMT's attempt to make their way to the ring only to be stopped by WEEHAWK. Shadow somehow gets to his feet and viciously assaults an almost unconscious Gangsta's with his own baseball bat, stupidly left at ringside. This somehow brings Xtreme to his feet. Shadow quickly takes care of that by taking out Gangsta's knee with a unrelenting Homerun swing. Gangsta clutches his knee in agony. Shadow quickly props Gangsta on a table again , this time with a chair on his head. Shadow climbs the turnbuckle, Shooting Star press. The sheer force of this move drives Gangsta through the table, the chair is bent around his head. Blood is flowing like a river from beneath the chair. Shadow drags Gangsta into the ring and attempts a pin 1....2..., Gangsta kicks out, barley. Shadow sets up a ladder in the corner and throws Gangsta into it, it almost sounds like his back snaps upon impact. He grabs Xtreme's bat and motions to the crowd, that crowd blows the roof off of the arena. A look of hatred enters Shadows eyes. He raises the bat, but Gangsta gets out of the way. Gangsta connects with a spinning sidekick to the Shadow's skull. He drops upon impact. Gangsta grabs his ball bat, now on fire and beats down Shadow. After 10 swings the bat is covered in blood. Gangsta attempts the Jersey clover leaf and Shadow somehow gets to the ropes. Gangsta goes outside of the ring and produces a bail of barbedwire. Shadow gets up and does a running suicide plancha with a chair. Gangsta is almost out cold from the impact.. Shadow puts 2 chairs over Gangsta's body. He then puts Gangsta under a table and performs a frog splash from the top of a 20 foot ladder. HE CONNECTS!! Gangsta is buried under the mess, Shadow is writhing in pain with a piece of table stuck in his arm. Medics again attempt to break through Weehawk. He produces a flame thrower from his bag of tricks. and starts to point it at the EMT's. Gangsta stumbles to his feet and pushes Shadow into the ring. He climbs a ladder, but Shadow somehow comes to his feet and climbs too. They both reach the top of the ladder. Shadow swings at Gangsta and misses, Gangsta swing and misses, Shadow swings and misses, finally Gangsta connects. Shadow starts to fall, but Gangsta grabs him, He than lifts him up into the XTREMEREALITY. GANGSTA DROPS SHADOW ON HIS HEAD FROM 20 FEET WITH THE XTREMEREALITY.......... He attempts the pin 1...2... Shadow kicks out with less than a millisecond away from defeat. Gangsta (while Shadow struggles to get to his feet) produces a bottle of lighter fluid and pours it into his mouth. The fan from the last PPV is sitting at ringside and again tosses Xtreme a lighter. As Shadow emerges to a standing position, Gangsta flicks the lighter and blasts Shadow in the face with a fireball. SHADOW IS NOT MOVING. As Shadow is still burning, Gangsta goes for the pin. 1.....2.....3.


RESULT:
Xtreme Gangsta d. Shadow via pinfall at 4:31




(Gangsta grabs the HWA BELT and a mic)

Gangsta: "MARTY!!!!!! I'll make you a deal. You bring back my EFW belt and I will give you back this piece of SH!T."




(Gangsta holds up the HWA belt. The crowd begins chanting "EFW EFW EFW EFW EFW......" Gangsta walks down the Aisle and hands WEEHAWK his barbedwire bat.)
