(The shot opens on "The Professional" Reid Kalahan, in a suit, carrying
his bag towards the exit of the arena. He looks around as if worried
someone will catch him. When he opens the doors, Vice President Red Dog is
standing there. Kalahan jumps at the suprise)
Kalahan : "Jesus, what the hell are you doing?! Trying to give me a
heart attack!?"
RD : "Oh no. I was just waiting here to remind you of your championship
responsiblities."
(Kalahan looks around as if caught with his hand in the cookie
jar)
Kalahan : "I don't know what you're talking about."
RD : "Oh? Good. It'd be unfortunate if you for some reason didn't show
to defend the title tonight and we had to strip it from you."
Kalahan : "... strip it from me?"
RD : "That's right. But no need to worry - you're here....
right?"
(RD walks past Kalahan into the building)
RD : "Good luck tonight."
(Kalahan looks flustered. Quick cut to the EFW opening, then to a shot
of the announcers standing at the announce position)
JB : "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Massacre's one-year
anniversary!! In addition to the spectacular card we have for you tonight,
our production department has compiled some of the best moments of the
last year and we're going to celebrate them tonight!"
BH : "We're also told the President and Vice President have an
announcement they want to make about something, but have been tight-lipped
as to what this announcement is. We'll find out tonight!"
JB : "Fans, here's our complete card!"

"The Equalizer" Chris Wren vs Mr.
Wiggles
| "The Equalizer" Chris Wren
vs Mr. Wiggles |
| Mr. Wiggles was cocky starting this one out, as usual. He wore a
t-shirt to the ring depicting Tyrant chasing Godzilla out of Tokyo
on his bike with the words "HWO Invades Japan" under the picture.
Wiggles slapped the taste out of Wren's mouth to start things, but
Wren jumped up and drop kicked him out of his shoes in response!
Wiggles surged to his feet and threw a roundhouse punch which Wren
ducked under and behind, kicking Wiggles in the ass as he passed and
sending him sprawling! Wiggles ran right into a body slam, but then
slid out of the ring to slow things down. Wren mocked him, and when
he returned he back body dropped Wren up and over. Wiggles followed
with a hard slam and a knee shot to the groin which drew boos from
the crowd and a warning from the referee. Wren reversed an irish
whip and sent Wiggles in, but his suicide drop kick just bounced
right off of Wiggles' chest! |
Sorry, no sale! |
| Wiggles backed the ref into the corner, then dropped some kinf
of small sharp object out of his glove and jammed it into Wren's
face before the ref could recover and see it. Wiggles slammed Wren
down and discarded the object to the outside. Wren slipped behind
and gave Wiggles a heel kick to the back of the head, knocking him
into the ropes, but Wiggles roared out and shoulder charged Wren,
sending him flying to the mat. Wren slid through as best he could
and drop kicked Wiggles as he charged in, then gave him a rolling
senton! A slam followed by another rolling senton crushed Wiggles
down. Wren tried to whip him across, but Wiggles reversed it and
lifted Wren over his head in a press slam! Wren was dropped hard on
his back. Wiggles dropped and punched in Wren's face, then slammed
him hard into the turnbuckle. Wren came out with a spin kick to the
gut, but Wiggles totally ignored it and slammed Wren back to the mat
once again, punching in his face afterwards. Wren then grabbed
Wiggles by the belt and the neck and PRESSED him over his head!!
Once, twice, three times Wiggles went up, and then he crashed down
face-first!! The crowd went nuts for this feat of strength! |
Three reps! |
| Wren hit the ropes and crushed Wiggles with a running rolling
senton RVD-style! When Wren pulled him up, Wiggles mule kicked him
in the groin, quickly cutting off the attack. As the boos rained in,
Wiggles complained to the ref about Wren 'cheating'. He head butted
Wren back to the mat before he could recover, then gave him a
jarring STUNNER! Wiggles followed up the stunner with another knee
to the groin. Wiggles didn't attempt a cover and Wren kangaroo
kicked out of the next move, knocking Wiggles to the mat, then
locked the clown in an STF!! Wiggles didn't give despite giving a
girlish yelp when the move first got locked on. He fought out and
Wren backed him into the ropes, but Wiggles just went off, beating
Wren with both fists and knocking him down with a hard right.
Wiggles followed this up by giving the dazed Wren a loud "DON'T FUCK
WITH ME!!" before shoving him down to the mat. The fans gave Wiggles
hell. |
"DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!" |
| Wren would not be daunted, though - he came right back at
Wiggles, lifting and slamming him down, then locking the STF back
on! Wiggles was close to the ropes this time and got out quickly. He
slammed Wren into the corner, then climbed up and punched him in the
face. The crowd booed instead of counting along, so Wiggles stopped
before the last one to give them all the finger and a loud issue of
his catchphrase. This was a mistake - Wren recovered and shoved
Wiggles down to the canvas, then climbed to the top and MOONSAULTED
off onto the prone clown! |
Moonsault! |
| Wren bounced off and no cover was made. The two reached their
feet at about the same time, and Wiggles ran in and yakuza kicked
Wren down to the mat! Wiggles then climbed to the top and dropped an
elbow right into Wren's back! A cover by Wiggles following got two.
Wiggles hauled Wren up and back brain lariated him hard to the mat,
then whipped him so hard into the buckles he flew out flat onto his
face, but a cover got only two! Wiggles complained to the ref about
the slow counts, once again giving Wren a chance to come back. Wren
grabbed Wiggles in a side headlock and took him over and down in the
hold, Wiggles thrashing around trying to escape on the mat. He
eventually did, but Wren grabbed his arm. Wiggles took a swing with
his other arm, but Wren ducked under, twisting the arm, then ran up
the turnbuckles behind Wiggles. In a flash, Wren ran down the top
rope, then jumped off and CHOPPED Wiggles in the throat!! The crowd
went nuts!! Holding his throat, Wiggles ran to the referee, begging
him for help, screaming that Wren was cheating. When asked how, he
just said "HE'S CHEATING!!!" |
Walking the ropes! |
| Wren followed up with another rolling senton! A leg roll clutch
caught Wiggles off-guard but only got two. Both men were up, and
Wiggles caught Wren with another yakuza kick that knocked him to one
knee. Wiggles groggily tried to follow with another, but Wren
scooped him up on his shoulders as he came in. Wren then sent him
spinning off in a hawian ace crusher!! |
Ace crusher! |
| Wren then caught him in another press slam!! He measured Wiggles
as he stood, then ran in and suicide drop kicked him, putting both
heels right in his forehead!! The crowd was going nuts. Wiggles
crawled towards the apron and a camera man, pleading "SOMEBODY HELP
ME!!" into the camera, but Wren dragged him back in. He lifted
Wiggles and brought him crashing down in another hawian ace crusher,
then gave the sign for the finish, bringing the crowd to it's feet!
But that's when Hannibal came out to ringside. Wren locked the LCD
on Mr. Wiggles, but right after Hannibal hit the apron and
distracted the referee!! Wiggles was tapping like Sammy Davis
Junior, but the referee didn't see it!! |
LCD!! |
| Wren released the hold, and when he saw Hannibal, he drop kicked
him right off the apron and into the guardrail! Wren pulled Wiggles
up and LIGERBOMBED him to the mat!! 1-------2--------NEAR FALL!! The
fans were going insane. Wiggles tried to grab Wren from behind, but
Wren kangaroo kicked out and rolled through into a backflip, showing
off his agility! Wiggles desperately tried for a clothesline, but
Wren ducked behind and grabbed the rear waistlock. He gave Wiggles
one german suplex... then held on and gave him ANOTHER german suplex
for the cover: 1---------2-------NEAR FALL!! Wiggles barely got the
shoulder up!! |
Equalizer > RVD |
| Wren pointed at the downed Wiggles and the crowd chanted "L-C-D!
L-C-D!" Wren was about to oblige when Hannibal crawled back on the
apron. Wren went over and punched him off again, but it gave Wiggles
the opening he needed to punch Wren right in the nuts!! Then Wiggles
made the cover, pulling the tights out of the referee's sight, and
Hannibal even put his feet up on the middle rope!!
1--------2----------------------3!!!!! Wiggles totally stole the
match!! |
BOOO! |
RESULT: Mr. Wiggles d. Chris Wren at 13:10 via
pinfall |

rules!) | |

(After the three is counted, Mr. Wiggles
immediately rolls out of the ring, hops the guardrail and runs for
the hills as the theme to the Benny Hill show plays instead of his
normal music. Wren starts to give chase but then gives up as Wiggles
was just not going to be caught. Wiggles runs to the outside of the
arena, where a clown car is waiting. He jumps through one of the
back windows and the car takes off, his feet still kicking outside
the window. Hannibal stays at ringside, waving him on. The crowd
boos the whole situation... until Wren leaps over the top rope into
a cross-body block on Hannibal, crushing him to the floor!! Wren
pounds in his head as security floods the area, eventually
seperating the two)

(A video package airs before the next match,
entitled "A Year in Moments". This one shows Nomad's trimphant
return to EFW at Chance of a Lifetime 4 and going on to win his
starting battle royal)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "At this year's Chance of a Lifetime
event, Extreme Firepro Wrestling saw the return of several of it's
flagship superstars... including the incomperable Nomad."
Nomad Voice-Over : "Going in, I knew this was going to be a big
moment for me, but until I walked through that curtain, not even *I*
had any idea just how big it would be."
(The video shows the reactions of various fans
all over the arena when Nomad's music first hits, then proceeds to
show him clear the ring of Bo Abobo)
Bret Stillman Voice-Over : "You gotta understand, man - this guy
is the reason I'm here today. He's the reason a lot of guys my age
are here. When his music hit, I was just in disbelief. I had to see
it for myself. It gave me goosebumps - hell I've got them right now
just thinking about it!"
Nomad Voice-Over : "There wasn't a lot of doubt about how I'd do
in there, but there was some. I mean, these guys are all younger
than me, all looking to make a name for themselves. I knew I was a
marked man out there..."
(Video quickly shows Jack Dod cheap-shotting
Nomad in the back during his celebration)
Nomad Voice-Over : "... but once I got going, I knew there was no
stopping me. I knew I was going to clear that ring."
(A quick montage of the
eliminations)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "And clear the ring he did: Nomad was
the only man left standing after all others had been eliminated.
With so few entrants left to go, most fans in the arena thought
Nomad's victory was all but assured. Until...."
(The video shows "Iron Blue Intention" hit at
COAL4 - some fans are shocked, some worried, some kneeling - as
Vermin comes down the isle towards the ring)
Nomad Voice-Over : "I was just thinking 'Oh god, not
again!'"
Bret Stillman Voice-Over : "I was shocked, excited, you name it -
I mean, this is history...."
(Shot switches to show Vermin and Nomad
standing mid-ring, nose-to-chest, as a million flashbulbs go
off)
Bret Stillman Voice-Over : "... THIS is what this sport is all
about. This moment right here."
Vermin Voice-Over : "There few greater satisfactions than
inflicting pain on Nomad. Therefore, in this moment, looking down on
him.. I was extremely satisfied."
(Video shows the first punches thrown between
the two, and the crowd explodes!)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "Nomad would go on to be eliminated by
Pantheon leader Alexander Atlas... but rest assured, now that he is
back where he belongs, there will be another day for Nomad."
(Video shows Nomad heading for the locker room,
shaking hands with the fans, then
fades)

| Rebel vs Rio |
| Rebel and Rio shook hands briefly at the start of this match,
drawing applause from the audience. Rio tossed Rebel to the ropes,
but missed a jumping clothesline when Rebel ducked. Rio reversed a
Rebel whip and sent him in again, leapfrogged over him, then caught
him on the second return with a satellite head scissors whip! Rebel
bounced right up and grabbed a side headlock, but Rio back suplexed
out. Both men then threw lightning quick kicks that didn't connect,
then stood at a standoff. The crowd applauded the sequence! Both men
traded blows and takedowns until Rebel slammed Rio over the top to
the floor. Rio came back in and planted an elbow between Rebel's
eyes, then pinned him with a standing moonsault that only got a one
count. The two traded takedowns again, this time Rio managing to
lock on a boston crab, which Rio quickly fought free of. Rebel
slammed Rio and dropped an elbow on his throat. Rio surged to his
feet and landed an AXE KICK on Rebel, but Rebel grabbed him in a
headlock and BULLDOGGED him out of the corner to cut off his
offense! |
Bulldog! |
| Rio responded to this by scissor-kicking Rebel, then giving him
to kicks to the torso and going right back to the boston crab. Rebel
countered a rear waistlock with a flying mare but was unable to
follow up; Rio pounded him with punches and knees to the torso. Rio
caught a charging Rebel with a drop toe hold, then suprised him with
a japanese leg roll clutch but only scored a one count. Rio whipped
Rebel across, but as he flew in with a flying cross chop, Rebel
jumped and collided with him in mid-air with a flying cross body!!
Rebel's momentum carried him through, but the cover only got a one.
Having broken Rio's attack for the moment, Rebel followed up with a
pair of side suplexes and a keylock. Rio was near the ropes and
caught them quickly to have the hold broken. Rebel pushed his groggy
opponent into the ropes and SPIN KICKED him on the return, knocking
him flat. Rebel then climbed to the top and dropped the leg across
Rio's neck! |
Top Rope Leg Drop! |
| Rio attempted a kick to come back, but Rebel caught the leg, and
after kicking it a couple of times, dragon screw legwhipped Rio to
the mat! Rio hopped up limping, but it was an act as he caught Rebel
right in the face with an axe kick that knocked him back a step!
Rebel cleared the cobwebs and came in, but Rio caught him in a
waterwheel drop! Both men were groggy, but Rebel acted first,
jumping and catching Rio with a jumping neckbreaker drop! Rebel
pulled him up and whipped him across, catching him with another spin
kick on the return! Rebel grabbed a rear waistlock, but Rio jumped
and kangaroo kicked out of the move, sending Rebel sprawling! Rio
came in charging, but ran into a kick to the midsection. Rebel
quickly set him for a powerbomb, then delivered the ROCK & ROLL
POWERBOMB, but the move only got a near fall!! Vigilantes fans were
stunned, as was Rebel himself, as he held up two fingers questioning
the referee. |
Rock & Roll! |
| Rio whipped Rebel to the ropes and caught him with a satellite
head scissors, throwing Rebel into the corner. But when he got up
dazed from the spinning, Rebel took the chance and caught him right
in the back of the head with a rolling koppo kick!! Rebel rolled him
up right after: 1--------2-------NEAR FALL!! Rio then kicked at
Rebel, who caught the leg again, but this time ate a back brain
kick! Rio locked in the boston crab again, doing damage to Rebel's
legs. Rebel fought out and backed Rio into the ropes, then whipped
him across. Rebel jumped up high and caught him with a hurracanrana
on the return!! 1------2-------NEAR FALL!! Rebel was starting to
show signs of fatigue as he was not quick to regain his feet after
the kickout. Rio took advantage and gave him a FISHERMAN'S BUSTER,
driving his head into the canvas! |
Fisherman's Buster! |
| Rio hit the ropes and ran in for a satellite head scissors, but
Rebel saw it coming at the last second and slid underneath, causing
Rio to slam into the turnbuckles in the corner! As he slumped to the
mat, Rebel climbed to the top slowly, and dropped the leg across his
neck once again! Both men were slow to stand. Rio backed Rebel into
the ropes and whipped him across, following in with a jumping
clothesline that took Rebel almost out of his boots! Rio followed
with another fisherman's buster. Rio then jumped up from behind and
rolled Rebel up in a victory roll for a two count! Rio signalled to
his fans, then wrapped the oklahoma roll on Rebel! Round and round
they went, and in the end, Rio scored his first NEAR FALL on Rebel!!
|
Oklahoma Roll! |
| Rebel caught Rio totally by suprise with a kido clutch for a
near fall!! It was almost over that quick. Rebel then dragon screw
legwhipped Rio down and hit a standing moonsault! 1-------2-----NEAR
FALL!! Rebel with a japanese leg roll clutch! 1------2-------NEAR
FALL!! The crowd was on it's feet by this point! Rebel tried to spin
Rio into another hold only to fall victim to the oklahoma roll once
again! 1--------2------NEAR FALL on Rebel!! Rio caught Rebel in the
leg roll clutch!! 1------2-----NEAR FALL!!! Rio stood up and
measured Rebel for an axe kick... but when he went to throw it,
Rebel caught him in the leg roll clutch again!!
1----------2-------------3!! The suprised and exhausted Rio couldn't
kick out that time!! |
Whew! Near fall mania ends with
a leg roll clutch! |

| The Hammers vs Captain
Justice/Paul Savage |
| This one was no pretty, to say the least. The Hammers marched
out to the ring against Cap and the returning Savage with purpose.
Goliath told Wallace to stay on the apron and watch, and for
thirteen minutes, that's all Wallace had to do. Savage and Captain
Justice took turns tagging in and out, neither man able to make even
the smallest dent in the massive Goliath. Goliath tossed them around
the ring like a couple of disobediant children, occasionally having
a good laugh at their attempts to hurt him. Chokes, slams, head
butts and huge chops made up the majority of his offense, and Savage
and CJ went from confident to totally frustrated in a short period
of time. Savage eventually landed a good spin kick to the gut that
knocked Goliath back a step, but Goliath responded by shoving him
down so hard he bounced over onto his stomach. Goliath tagged in
Wallace just for the finish, and he immediately covered Savage for
the three. Goliath had demolished the two strongest members of the
Justice League without breaking a sweat. The fans were in shock as
the Hammers made their way to the back in victory. |

(A video package airs before the next match,
entitled "A Year in Moments". This one shows "The ICON" Rick Idol's
successfull title defense at Armageddon 4)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "At this year's Armageddon event, Rick
Idol went into a match with four of the toughest opponents he's ever
faced, and even the confident 'ICON' had doubts about his
survival."
Idol Voice-Over : "This was the most important match in my
career, bar none. I had a million things going through my mind going
into this match. History with Vermin, history with Tyrant, and even
history with Furlong. Three guys who all could claim a victory over
me and who I could claim a victory over in return. There was a time
when there wouldn't have been any doubt in my mind that I would win
the match and retain, but this time I felt something deep in my gut.
For the first time in a long time, I doubted I had what it took to
win."
(The video shows the entrances of all his
opponents)
Idol Voice-Over : "I felt it as Vermin's ceremonial entrance was
going on, each title they held up I watched and remembered the
history behind it. Furlong came out and I thought only of how he had
just gotten me to say the words 'I Quit' for the first time in my
career not even a week before. And I saw Tyrant come out, completely
off his nut and looking more dangerous than I've ever seen him, and
he knocked me unconscious on two occassions when he had a CLEAR
head. All of this was going through my mind, and I looked at the
title I had fought so long to regain, and had finally won on my own:
no schemes, no traps, no help. I thought of all this, and I had
doubts. 'I'm not going to walk out of this', I kept thinking. One on
one each of those men in that ring had the ability to take me out,
and I knew it, and I was taking all three of them on at
once."
(Video shows Idol's entrance in slow
motion)
Idol Voice-Over : "The video changed all that. I had no idea what
was going on when that came on the screen. I didn't know who had put
it together, and I just stared along with everyone else as my career
flashed before my eyes in abbreviated form. Looking back on some of
the worst and best moments of my career, it reminded me that my back
had been against the wall before and I hadn't backed down then and
had no reason to back down now. And then I heard something that I
never thought I'd hear - people cheering. For me. Shouting 'ICON' at
the top of their lungs without a 'sucks' at the end of it. For years
I treated these people like pondscum, and now they were behind me.
Irony, huh? They tell me David Mercury picked out the new music for
me. Not very regal, but I gotta admit it charged me up big time as I
walked through that curtain and saw everyone standing on their
feet."
(Then, the video cuts showing various spots
from the match in rapid succession)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "What happened next? Pure carnage for
fifteen minutes. Four of the toughest competitors in the history of
EFW tore each other apart mercilessly. There were no friends, only
enemies."
Idol Voice-Over : "Adrenaline combined with just pure stubborness
is all that kept me going."
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "The champion took out Jack Furlong, the
man who only one week earlier had made him submit in an I-Quit
match."
(Footage is shown of the
elimination)
Idol Voice-Over : "I won't lie: after the wars I've been having
with Furlong this year, he's earned a lot of respect from me. But I
took great pleasure in pinning his ass in the center of the ring
after hitting the Legend Killer. After embarassing me a week before,
and especially after the abuse I had taken in this match, that pin
got my fire burning."
Furlong Voice-Over : "Call it whatever you want, pencil neck. I
call it luck. Luck that Idol had those two retarded five hundred ton
slabs of fat to hide behind. Listen, you want to verbally blow Idol,
be my guest, but I don't care if the son of a bitch beats me a
hundred times, I ain't doing it! As God as my witness, I will not
die, I will not depart this earth until I break my right foot off in
Rick Idol's ass. You got that?"
(Next is shown the footage leading up to
Vermin's elimination)
Idol Voice-Over : "I've had people comment on the arm attack I
used on Vermin in the match. It's something I've always fallen back
on in a match, especially with the big guys: they can't toss you
around with a hurt arm. Even so, I was as surprised as everybody
when Vermin gave up. I mean, I figured I'd just continue to weaken
the arm to prevent a Hammer of Hate or the 187, but then I see his
foot tapping on the mat and heard the bell. I've beaten Vermin by
pinfall before, and up until that moment that had been the biggest
accomplishment of my career. Getting a submission from him... it's a
different experience. I know how Furlong must have felt, now,
getting that win in the I Quit match. It's a big deal, and I don't
think anything else I'll do can top it."
Vermin Voice-Over : "For my part, I say only this: I would give
Idol a round of applause, but my elbow will not straighten
correctly."
Idol Voice-Over : "And then, ironically, it was me and Tyrant
again. Round 7, you could call it. Only this time he was wearing
those absurd HWO colors again. Make no mistake - I HATE the HWO.
With a passion. At first it was because of their connection to
Hogan, but it's long since become personal between me and that
group. So yeah, Tyrant tossing me around like a ragdoll and
powerbombing me AGAIN was pissing me off more than it was hurting
me. I'm GLAD I made Tyrant submit. On the night the HWO reformed, I
took their number one meal ticket and made im give up while
retaining my title. Pure satisfaction."
(Footage of Tyrant's elimination is
shown)
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "We attempted to get comments from
Tyrant, but the HWO refused to speak with us, claiming they don't
answer to 'biased media'."
(Video shows Idol laying on the mat afterwards,
and then making his exit)
Idol Voice-Over : "My final thoughts on it all? I couldn't
believe it, really. I laid on that mat and stared up at the lights
as my music played and the ref raised my hand, and I just kept
thinking, 'I can't believe I did it'. I still feel that way, bit. I
mean, at any point in that match any one of those guys could have
capitalized and pinned me, eliminating me first from the match. Heh,
maybe it was 'divine intervention'. People are saying, 'he's no
fluke!', now. Me, I feel like I've finally earned the nickname
"ICON", and this belt around my waist feels better than ever. And
Potterdam said I would be nothing without him."
Jim Biggins Voice-Over : "We agree with the champion. You can say
many things about Rick Idol, but you can no longer say he's a
fluke."

(For the next match, Hannibal is introduced
last. As he enters the ring, he walks right up to Adams, then kicks
and stunners him! Without missing a beat, Hannibal rolls out of the
ring and walks to the back, leaving Guzman and Deuce with the downed
Adams in the ring. The fans boo him as he walks to the back,
pointing to his head a couple of times, then giving a rude gesture
towards the ring)
JB : "Looks like we've got a handicap match!"
BH : "That's what Adams gets for trusting Hannibal!"
JB : "How can Adams possibly win
now?"
|
Loser
Leaves Town "The Minitua Man" Kirk Adams vs Manuel Guzman
& Deuce
|
| Adams' fate seemed sealed before the bell even rang! Guzman
jumped on him for the cover right as the opening bell sounded, but
Adams had recovered enough of his wits to kick out right before
three! Guzman hurridly pounded on Adams, then sent him across to the
ropes, but Adams grabbed the top rope and slid out to the floor. He
took a breather on the outside and that's when he realized he had no
partner. Guzman pointed to himself a Deuce with a grin. A look of
indignation crossed Adams' face, and instead of leaving, he rolled
back in the ring! Guzman blocked an Adams punch and slammed him into
the corner. Guzman rocked Adams with a chop, then sent him across,
but Adams slapped away Guzman's dropkick on the return. When Guzman
got to his feet, Adams hip tossed him to the mat, then the two took
turns whipping each other into the opposite corners of the ring.
Adams broke the cycle by slipping behind Guzman and back dropping
him to the mat. Guzman rolled to the corner and tagged in Deuce, and
that's when the defecit he faced first seemed apparent on the face
of Adams. he was able to shake off the double-team by throwing Deuce
into the turnbuckles, but Guzman caught him with a hard back drop
from behind. Deuce then sat Adams up and drop kicked him in the back
of the head! Adams slammed Deuce to the mat, but Deuce surged back
up with an elbow to the face, then a second, then a third that
rocked Adams back... then Deuce took to the air and slammed a fourth
elbow into Adams' jaw, knocking him to the mat! It seemed like only
a matter of time for Adams. |
Jumping elbow! |
| Adams was seeing stars after that attack. Deuce hit the ropes
for another jumping elbow, but Adams recovered and hit the deck
right before Deuce jumped. Deuce changed directions and BODY
SPLASHED him across the back instead! Deuce grabbed Adams and lifted
for a northern lights suplex, but Adams resisted and countered it
into a DDT! Adams hit a kidney punch and a slam, then whipped Deuce
into the corner. Adams ran in and nailed a jumping knee into Deuce's
chest, crushing him into the turnbuckles! Adams pressed the
advantage, furiously dropping knees into Deuce's back and pounding
him with headlock punches when he tried to stand. They were in
Deuce's corner, though, and Guzman tagged himself in behind Adams'
back. Adams went for a cover on Deuce and Guzman waited till the
referee broke the news. When Adams got up and turned around, Guzman
blasted him with the right that knocked him to the mat! Adams was
quickly back up with a series of machine gun body shots on Guzman,
then dropped a fist right between his eyes. Adams whipped Guzman to
the ropes, hit the deck on the rebound, then leapfrogged over on the
second rebound and hit the opposite ropes. But when he came in with
a chop, Guzman sidestepped it and dove for a double leg takedown!
Adams grabbed him and the two struggled - Adams finally won out and
whipped Guzman towards the corner, but Guzman put the brakes on and
whipped Adams to the corner instead! Then, running in, he jumped up
and MONKEY FLIPPED Adams to center ring!! This exchange had the
crowd on it's feet!! |
Air Adams! |
| Adams rolled through to his feet but was out. Guzman charged in
with a rolling sole butt rush and knocked Adams to the mat! The
cover was made: 1-------2--------NEAR FALL!! Adams was still in it
somehow!! Guzman got up and Adams was in serious trouble. Grabbing
Guzman's feet, he tripped Guzman up, then stood and stomped him
right in the groin! Adams took the moment to catch a much needed
breather. Guzman knew it was happening and forced himself up. Guzman
backed the winded Adams into the ropes and whipped him across, drop
kicking him in the chest on the return! Guzman rolled Adams up in a
jacknife hold: 1-------2--------NEAR FALL!! Somehow Adams made it
out. Guzman, frustrated, pulled Adams back up, but Adams quickly
slipped behind him and gave him a GERMAN SUPLEX WHIP!! Adams slowly
rolled over on the mat, pointing to his head and laughing weakly.
Adams had used Guzman's finisher - a trend between these two. |
The Kirk Adams Whip! |
| Adams weakly lifted Guzman up on his shoulders for a samoan
drop, but Guzman rolled through the move into a roll-up!
1------2-------Adams grabbed the bottom rope at the last second!!
Deuce, frustrated, ran over and kicked Adams' hands off the rope!
Deuce came in the ring for the double-team, but Adams bull-rushed
him into the corner and began ramming shoulders into his torso.
Guzman saw the chance and took it, leaping and wheel kicking Adams
right in the back of the head!! Adams collapsed and slumped down the
ropes to the mat. Guzman and Deuce then stood over Adams and mocked
him, Guzman with Adams' own trademark pose!! |
Insult to Injury |
| Deuce then rolled Adams to the outside. Guzman jumped up to the
top turnbuckle while Deuce rolled out. When the half-dead Adams got
to his feet, Deuce held him while Guzman soared off with a missle
dropkick that caught him right in the face and sent him over the
railing into the crowd!!! Chants of "E-F-W! E-F-W!" surged across
the arena!! |
!!!! |
| Guzman and Deuce followed him over the rail. Setting up a couple
of chairs from scattered fans, they hooked him up and DOUBLE BACK
DROPPED him right into the chairs!! Deuce locked the CURTSEY BEFORE
THE KING on the immobile Adams. Guzman noticed he wasn't moving and
the two had to drag him back to the ring and roll him in. Guzman
went for a cover: 1------2----------NEAR FALL!! Where was Adams
finding this strength!? Guzman back dropped him to the canvas. He
pulled Adams up and somehow Adams found the strength to fire shots
into his midsection. When this didn't drop Guzman, Adams punched the
side of his knee, making it buckle. Then Adams stood up, grabbed the
kneeling Guzman and gave him a very sloppy piledriver! Adams just
sat there afterwards, as if trying to make sense of what was
happening. He robtically grabbed Guzman and gave him another
piledriver as his opponent tried to stand. Guzman still made it back
to his feet before Adams, but he was starting to show signs of
damage himself. He waved Deuce into the ring for the double team.
Guzman grabbed Adams and held him from behind. Deuce climbed the
ropes, but something in Adams warned him what was happening - he
shoved Guzman off and into the ropes, crotching Deuce on the top!!
Adams grabbed the stunned Deuce on his shoulder, then walked out a
few steps... turned and TRIVIALIZED him to the mat!!! Guzman saw it
coming and jumped to spinning wheel kick Adams, but it was too late,
the move landed before the kick! Realizing what he risked by
prolonging this match, Guzman grabbed a dragon sleeper on Adams...
but the referee was checking on Deuce, who was not moving!! The ref
called for a trainer, but the trainer couldn't get in the ring while
the match was still going. Suddenly it was one on one!! |
Deuce goes out!! |
| Guzman used a spinning neckbreaker on Adams and went for the
cover: 1-------2-------NEAR FALL!! The Trivializer seemed to
re-energize Adams somewhat - when he stood, he barraged Guzman with
punches and knees with a CYBER BLOW! Then, scooping Guzman up, he
gave HIM a Trivializer!! |
Trivializer!! |
| Both men lay exhausted on the mat, Adams was unable to make a
cover. Both men made it up at the same time, and Guzman kicked Adams
down with another rolling sole butt rush, then ANOTHER one! Guzman
rolled the limp Adams up: 1---------2---------NEAR FALL!! What the
hell was Adams made of!? Adams slapped both hands to the throat of
Guzman and lifted for a choke slam, but Guzman twisted out and arm
dragged Adams to the canvas!! Guzman then stumbled over to the
turnbuckles. He climbed up, and then noticed the body of his fallen
partner between him and his target. He looked around at the crowd,
and they roared at him to do it. So he did! Guzman leaped off the
buckles and over his partner to body splash Adams.... but he spent
too much time up there and Adams moved at the last second!!! |
Amazing leap! |
| Both men were down after this again as the clock approached the
18 minute mark. Adams backed into a corner to rest, but it proved to
be a mistake. Guzman came in firing shots at him, then sat him on
the top turnbuckle. Guzman climbed all the way up with him and
brought him crashing down with a SUPERPLEX!! |
Superplex! |
| A cover: 1---------2---------NEAR FALL AGAIN!!! Guzman looked
dumbfounded. He lifted the limp Adams up onto his shoulders and
carried him over to the ropes. He then SPICY DROPPED Adams over the
top to the floor!!! Adams crashed to the floor like a sack of
potatoes. Guzman waited in the ring, possibly hoping he'd get
counted out since nothing else seemed to work. But he didn't -
slowly but surely, Adams crawled back under the bottom rope and into
the ring. Guzman measured him for a spin wheel kick, but when Adams
stood and Guzman pulled the trigger, Adams caught him in mid-air,
turned him upside-down and TRIVIALIZED him to the canvas!!! Adams
stood gasping for breath. He pulled Guzman to his feet and waved a
finger in his face! Guzman threw a half-hearted right which
connected. Adams threw one back. Guzman threw another, then Adams
another, neither man wanting to drop. Adams waved Guzman on, and
Guzman threw another one... but this time Adams hooked the arm and
BACKSLID Guzman to the mat!! Guzman was taken totally by suprise!!
1-----------2-------------------------3!!!!! Adams pulled off the
biggest upset in EFW history!!! |

(President Walters and VP RD come to the ring
before the main event. RD quiets the crowd down, the takes a
mic)
RD : "I don't know about you folks, but that last match was why
I'm a wrestling fan!"
(The crowd roars it's agreement)
RD : "It's been one hell of a year already. Where does the time
go? Anyway, we're proud to have you here, thanks for supporting us
and making this the best wrestling company going today!"
(Another roar of agreement)
RD : "Now the president and I have something we want
to--------"
(All of a sudden 'No Love Lost' hits the
speakers, cutting off President Walters in mid sentence. Ashton
Adler emerges from the entranceway clad in his street arrire of blue
jeans, a t-shirt, and his leather biker jacket, and holding a
microphone in hand. The crowd erupts into a resounding chorus of
boos upon seeing him, and a few begin to toss their drinks and food
wrappers in his general direction. He takes one slow, disdain-filled
look at the audiance around him before looking at Walters and RD
standing in the ring and raising the mic to his mouth.
)
Ashton : "Alright, that's it...I've had enough of this
bullshit!"
(Ash kicks over a big sign bearing the EFW
logo, sending it flying off of the side of the stage and onto the
ground below.)
Ashton : "Now it's not very often that I actually come out here
to directly address the big mass of morons. But then again this is
Scotland. You can't throw a rock without hitting a moron, so I'll
continue."
(Ash holds out his arms after his comment,
soaking in all of the hatred seething from the
crowd.)
Ashton : "Don't get me wrong, the only reason I'm out here right
now is to take care of something that's really been pissing me off
lately. Under any normal circumstances, I wouldn't be wasting my
time. But with each passing week, I start to notice more and more
the total corruption that in this sorry excuse for a wrestling
federation!"
(He raises his right hand and points at
President Walters and RD)
Ashton : "Corruption that you two are the sole cause of! For
years now, I've busted my ass on three different continents. One day
I find out that the EFW has a spot open for me, and I see my
opportunity to not only work for a world class wrestling federation,
but to gain the recognition I've worked so goddamn hard to earn. And
what do I see when I finally get here? I see a little cardboard
cut-out hero named Chris Wren, who would only be out here if he had
a break in his schedule. I'm sure he's hanging out at some
pansy-assed modern gym's lounge and drinking fruit smoothees with
his little butt-buddies Roberto and Magnus ver Magnusson. But I
personally have nothing better to do with my time. I see a washed up
group of has-beens called The Vigilantes, charging back into action
in a sad fuckin' attempt to reclaim lost glory. Nevermind that
they're all talentless shitheads who have had every single title and
award handed to them on a silver fuckin' platter, but don't forget
the ultimate lazy shithead, The Nomad, who seems proud to be the
leader of the biggest group of misfits I've ever seen. I see The
Children Of Wonderland, who seem more content with playing dress-up
and having tea parties instead of actually WRESTLING! I see The
Justice League, two pieces of the most overrated garbage in this
business, led by a guy whose face you'll find next to the definition
of 'retarded' in the dictionary! And I see without a doubt the
sorriest world champion in the world...'The Eyesore' Dick Idol! So
it's not a matter of me NOT having the time to bring these problems
to the attention of you people...it just boils down to the simple
fact that I hate each and every single one of you."
(The crowd cheers upon mention of the various
superstars' names, but boos heavily once more when Ash completes his
last sentence.)
Ashton : "Oh yeah, that's right. God forbid you be grateful to
one of the few honest guys in this hellhole of a wrestling
federation, but it's perfectly fine to cheer the sorry fuckers who
makes it a point to keep chapstick companies from going bankrupt by
kissing your worthless asses each and every opportunity they gets!
That right there has got to be my biggest problem; you people
wouldn't recognize a truly talented athlete unless he walked right
up to ya and jammed his boot right into your family jewels! And
believe you me, I've come reeeaaal close to that point! And sure,
you can go right ahead and call me a bitter asshole till you're blue
in the face. When I came here to the EFW I figured that maybe, just
MAYBE I had arrived at a place where a guy like me a hard working
wrestler, could get recognition for his skills. Because that's what
I am; a skillful wrestler. But what do I see instead? Barbed wire
boards, flaming baseball bats, half naked women, exploding
cages..."
(He points out into the ring
again)
Ashton : ."..and two total jackasses running this
freakshow."
(The crowd showers Ash with more jeers, and RD
begins to lift his mic to speak, but it cut off by Ash before he can
even begin a sentence.)
Ashton : "You shut your goddamned hole! You're responsible for
this shit and you KNOW IT! When I've worked my ass off for YEARS
just to have you two pass me up with a shit eating prettyboy who
hocks t-shirts, or an escaped mental patient who can hurl a fireball
but wouldn't know the difference between an armbar and an armchair,
or a so-called 'world champion" who is way past his prime and can be
knocked out with a sneeze, then how do you expect me NOT to be a
bitter asshole? You guys know exactly who you are, and you continue
to play up to these mindless sheep you call 'fans' as if they
actually CARE about you! You're all nothing but flavors of the
month, and the only positive side to this cycle is that once the
idiots in the crowd grow bored with your little act, they won't
hesitate to toss your ass in the garbage where you BELONG."
(Ashton nods his head assuringly and fends off
another barrage of paper cups and wrappers as he walks out onto the
middle of the ramp.)
RD : "Listen, Adler. These people are telling you you're full of
shit, and they're right."
Ashton : "Oh you KNOW what I'm saying is the whole truth and
nothing but! When are you going to look yourselves in the mirror and
accept the fact that the only reason these 'fans' give a shit about
you, and the only reason they adopt you as their 'heros' is because
you are so much like alike? You're BOTH worthless, and you know how
misery loves company! Why else would you fucksticks boo someone like
Jack Furlong?"
(Ashton uses his free hand to point down to his
crotch.)
Ashton : "Because you're JEALOUS that you'll never have the balls
and fortitude that he does! Why else would you boo a guy like Kirk
Adams?"
(Ashton then raises the same hand up, extends
his index finger, and taps it against the side of his
head)
Ashton : "It's because you're JEALOUS that you don't have HALF of
the intelligence that he does! Why else do you boo guys like Zack
Sirus and Reid Kalahan?"
(Ashton points out to the crowd, and then
throws his arm to the side in a quick sweeping
motion)
Ashton : "It's because you're all JEALOUS of the confidince and
athleticism that they're overflowing with! Why else would you boo
The Dods?"
(Ashton lowers his hand and balls it up into a
fist)
Ashton : "Because you're JEALOUS that your own families done have
the same sort of close bond and unity that theirs does!"
(The crowd lets Ashton have it with another
loud chorus of boos and jeers, but he simply lowers his head and
raises his index finger into the air.)
Ashton : "And then we have problem is the Extreme Firepro
Wrestling head office. Oh how the mighty have fallen, EFW! Things
were all fine and dandy until YOU President Walters made your grand
return. And what have we seen since then? In your INFINITE wisdom,
you and your little yes-man RD have given title shots left and right
to the biggest losers in this promotion! You're putting the
integrity of these titles at stake by offering them to guys who by
all means should be BEGGING to be let into J.P. Woody Handcock's
stable of retards! Since when did any self-respecting wrestling
promotion decide to start handing out title belts to a bunch of
worthless hacks to make up for their lack of wrestling skill? Did
one of the McMahons suddenly buy the EFW the last time I got
shitfaced and passed out? I thought we were in Scottland, not
Stamford! Your bias towards these useless wrestling school rejects
just goes to show how intent you are with holding down and holding
back the REAL wrestlers in this federation! But my biggest
problem....by far my BIGGEST problem has to do with the EFW as a
whole. Ya see..."
(Ash raises his free arm and points directly
above him to a giant suspended banner bearing the EFW
logo)
Ashton : "...what you ALL need to realize is that these three
letters above me are a BLATANT LIE! That all of you wrestlers in the
back who continue to abuse your bodies and minds for this promotion,
you are living a BLATANT LIE! That all of you mindless, senseless,
ignorant assholes in the crowd are supporting a BLATANT LIE! And
that you, President Walters, and you, RD, are the biggest con
artists and LIARS on the face of God's green earth. But if there's
one thing you can be sure of, you can bet your asses that I'm not
going to sit around and let this shit go on any longer! This
ceremony is nothing but the celebration of a tradition of nonstop
garbage and corruption! But you all had better enjoy this
anniversery while it lasts, because with God as my witness, Extreme
Firepro Wrestling..."
(Ash pulls a flyer bearing the EFW logo out of
his pocket, holds it up in front of him with both hands for all to
see, and then slowly rips it in half, revealing his dead serious
face and letting the pieces slowly waft to the
ground)
Ashton : "...this is only the beginning!"
(Ashton throws down the mic and is met with a
thundering cacophony of boos. He begins to walk towards the
backstage area but stops in front of a nearby cameraman and grabs
the lens with one hand, pointing to it with the other and yelling
'I'm doing YOU ALL a favor!' before walking off into the
back)

JB : "What the hell is wrong with that kid? He's ruined the whole
night! Hey Ashton, if you don't like it here, LEAVE!!"
BH : "Now the pres and VP are leaving without making their
announcement. Thanks a lot, Adler."
JB : "... well, fans, we still have our main event to go, and it's on
next!"
MAIN
EVENT LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH "The Professional"
Reid Kalahan vs "The Siberian Sadist" Alexi Markoff
|
| Markoff had won both of the previous two encounters between
these two. Would tonight go his way also? Kalahan tried to start
things off quick with a whip to the ropes and a spear, but Markoff
dodged it and Kalahan landed face-first on the canvas. The two
struggled back and forth, each looking for a takedown, until Kalahan
finally found it with a pair of fireman's carry takedowns, each
followed by an elbow drop, and then a quick pair of headlock
takedowns. Markoff slid out of the ring to re-compose himself after
this, which brought an arrogant smirk to Kalahan's face. Markoff saw
that and came right back in, slamming the champion into the corner
buckles. Markoff grabbed Kalahan while he was slightly stunned and
took him down in a front facelock, then hooked in a double arm and
necklock. Kalahan didn't stay stunned long and twisted out of the
move, catching Markoff under both arms and overhead suplexing him!
Kalahan then locked on a bow & arrow backbreaker, but Markoff
struggling and the hold wasn't on long enough to be effective. The
two came to their feet and Markoff resorted to brawling, punching
and knee kicking Kalahan to the mat. Markoff pulled him to his
knees, but Kalahan quickly ducked behind and twisted-style
backdropped Markoff to the mat! Holding on, Kalahan pulled the
struggling Markoff up and hit another backdrop, then pulling him up
again, he hooked on a full nelson and DRAGON SUPLEX WHIPPED Markoff
to the canvas! Markoff hit the mat with enough force to roll back
onto his feet, and Kalahan his stunned opponent for ANOTHER twisted
backdrop!! After this Kalahan rolled Markoff over for the cover:
1-------2--------NEAR FALL!! |
Suplex parade! |
| Kalahan stayed on Markoff, pulling him right up after the pin.
Markoff fired back with shots to the torso, but Kalahan kicked him
low and jumping piledrived him to the mat! Smelling blood, Kalahan
hooked Markoff and delivered the GOLDWINNER - but Markoff's feet
landed in the ropes!! Kalahan pulled him up, but Markoff slammed him
head-first into the turnbuckle. Markoff lifted Kalahan to sit him on
the top, but Kalahan wouldn't go, and reversed the move into a
FALCON ARROW!! The referee made the count:
1-----------2---------------3!! Kalahan rolled out of the ring and
grabbed his title belt, a slight look of suprise on his face. What
happened to Markoff? |
Falcon Arrow! |

JB : "Holy smokes! I guess the third time is a charm for
Kalahan!"
BH : "I guess so. When it was on the line, he showed up, and Markoff
didn't."
JB : "See you next time, EFW fans!!"
