SEGMENT

Chance Craven has something to say

------------------------------------

{The kicks of "Front Toward Enemy" by Incendiary blast through the speakers and Chance throws opens the curtain and darts out like a shot...he looks like a redneck Santa Clause with a large, burlap sack over his shoulder...}

Terri Morasco: Chance has amazing luck last week at the Pay Per View! He beat Jack Ferriman and I was pretty impressed.

Vasco Dias: Yeah, yeah. what's in the bag though?

Terri Morasco: That's all you have on your mind?

{Chance slaps hands with the fans that reach out and he pushes the sack into the ring and rolls under the bottom rope. He reaches for a microphone that a tech is handing him and the crowd politely cheers.}

Chance Craven: What a night!

{The crowd polietly cheer again.} 

Chance Craven: I'm going to be real...I got lucky against Jack Ferriman. Jack Ferriman is an incredible wrestler. His intensity is off the charts. Jack Ferriman is one of the reasons that IWF is as great as it is.

{The crowd cheers and some try to get an IWF chant to start, but it dies down pretty quickly. }

Chance Craven: Y'all may want to know what I have in my bag...but I'm not going to let anyone know until the time is right. IWF has changed my life...My farm is safe for at least another year!

{The crowd cheers.}

Chance Craven: For the first time in a long time, I have a little spending money. I just wanted to come out here and thank you for your support...Oh hey, I've lost 30 lbs since joining IWF.

{The crowd politely cheers but are kind of confused how the subject changed.}

Vasco Dias: Chance needs to take some public speaking classes.

Terri Morasco: Vasco! He's trying his best. Be nice.

Chance Craven: I'd say I've changed my diet, but that's a lie...

{There are some audible laughs from the crowd, not a lot, but it makes Chance smile...he takes a second and gets back to his promo.}

Chance Craven: The intense training has done good for me...That on top of my farm work has really been a benefit to me...Like everything, I want to be the best that I can be...I wanted to come out here and commit to you that I'm going to continue to get better. In my bag is part of that promise. I'm not ready to share it with the world and I'm not capable of living up to the expectations inside...but when the time is right...you'll know and I hope it brings you to your feet. I hope it inspires you to do the best you can at your job. I hope it inspires you to see that dreams really do come true.

{The crowd politely cheers again as Chance hands the microphone back to the tech and gets out of the ring with the sack over his shoulder. He slaps hands with fans as he makes his way backstage.}

------------------------------------

SINGLES MATCH

Kate Steele vs Nancy Paulson-Carlon

------------------------------------

Alison Valance: the following match is scheduled for one fall!

{As soon as the music starts she marches down the ramp and gets into the ring, marching back and forth like a wild woman until the bell rings.}

Alison Valance: On her way down to the ring first, Nancy Paulson-Coulson!

{Diamond and the Gem Stones begins to blare all across the sound system and as it does we are able to see the likes of the Gem Stones playing on a tron. Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire are all playing various instruments as we are able to see Diamond Steele emerging from the curtain with a microphone in her hand. She sings as loudly as she can to the sound of roaring boos. Accompanying is that of her husband "Lady Steele" The Drag Queen. He smirks as he pushes up his breasts as he tells the crowd to pipe down. Kate smirks as she just sings loudly which results in even more boos. Diamond finally makes it to the ring and she quickly runs up the ring steps as she grabs the turnbuckle as hard as she can. She immediately leap frogs over the ropes and bounces about before she points at the crowd who boos louder than before. She flips them off as she throws the microphone to the side. She smirks as she opens up a pocket mirror and takes a moment to admire how beautiful her hair is as she waits for the match to begin. Lady Steele just smirks as he claps for his wife on the outside of the ring.}

Alison Valance: Next down to the ring Diamond Steele

{As soon as the bell ring, Diamond rushes out of her corner and unleashes a furry of blows before hitting Nancy with a SHIPWRECKED getting Nancy to tap out.}

Alison Valance: and your winner diamond steele!

------------------------------------

SEGMENT

Extinction Event Fallout part 1

Extreme Champion spotlight

------------------------------------

{The lights in the arena suddenly turn out, plunging the fans into darkness. Little by little, small beacons of light begins to pop up as the fans raise their lit cellphone aloft as the #WWIDN appears on the Jumbotron in bright purple and the opening drumbeat of “Unstoppable” begins to play. Amidst a shower of phone flashes, Pooler steps out from behind the curtain as the fans sing along, "WE CAN BE HEROES".

Shielding his eyes with his left hand, he smiles and points to the nosebleed sections with his right before making his way to the edge of the ramp.}

Terri Morasco: IWF Hall of Famer and Head Performance Center Coach; Bob Pooler is here LIVE in MIlwaukee, Wisconsin!

Vasco Dias: Who let him out of that sweat house he calls a training facility?

Terri Morasco: Oh stop it! The IWF Performance Center is top of the line and you damn well know it.

{Bob steps into the ring as his music slowly fades out. Once the music was gone all you could hear was the sold out crowd chanting his name. He smiles and shakes his head and then walks over toward the side of the ring and is handed a mic.}

Bob Pooler: Thank you. Thank you.

{The crowd cheers}

Bob Pooler: I really appreciate all of that, but I don’t deserve it.

{The cheers die off a bit as a bit of confusion sets in on the crowd.}

Bob Pooler: You see that sort of reception is for someone that has been around. Someone who takes care of business. That’s not been me for the last couple of weeks. Lately I’ve been seeing myself split in two different places. The Performance Center, and of course the hospital with Miles Reyes.

{A Miles chant breaks out and Bob nods and smiles.}

Bob Pooler: Thanks for that. The support of you fans have been overwhelming and Miles is working everyday to get better.

{The crowd cheers more for Miles and Bob smiles in appreciation but his smile waivers.}

Bob Pooler: But I see him in that bed….I see him not being able to get out of it ...and I just feel guilty. I go to practice and I teach the rest of the kids there lesson with the same passion I do every day because I love teaching but I can't help but feel like absolute garbage that Miles isn't there learning with the rest of the class. He isn’t there living his dream and it makes me feel god damn sick!”

{Bob starts to pace back and forth as his emotions start to build up.}

Bob Pooler: But Ive realized now that all this time ive been beating myself up for what happened to Miles at October Revolution when really I should have been focused on not only beating up Steve Awesome but kicking his rat bastard ass!

{The crowd cheer.}

Bob Pooler: Last week inside that Extinction Cage, I fell for the oldest trick in the book. But its not over. I’m not done. I want-”

{REGRETS IVE GOT MINE!!!!}

{The crowd begin to boo as the IWF Sextreme Champion comes strutting onto the stage with a microphone in his hand. Before the music even fades out the crowd is already chanting “asshole”. Steve goes to speak but the chant gets louder. Steve just glares at the crowd as they chant and boo him.}

Steve Awesome: Oh Bob…...you are breaking my heart.

{Steve pretends to wipe away a tear before smirking at Bob.}

Steve Awesome: I alllllmost feel bad about what I did.

{He laughs as the crowd boo him.}

Steve Awesome: But heres the thing Bob, I think I know what you want. I think you want a match against me. And I’ll tell you what, I dont hate the idea. I would love to be able to beat up a Hall of Famer and put him in the hospital alongside his protege. Really just put a real end to this whole Performance Center crap once and for all.

{The two men glare at each other as the crowd starts to cheer and get hype at the idea of a possible match between the two. Then Steve shakes his head.}

Steve Awesome: But nahhhhh!!!!!

{He yells obnoxiously into the mic and then laughs at himself.}

Steve Awesome: The way I see it, I already beat you at Survival of the Fittest. You had your chance to get your revenge but you blew it. That’s your fault. So I think I got two words for you and your little challenge.

{Steve hits the crotch chops.}

Steve Awesome: Suck it!!

{He laughs again and walks back stage as the crowd boos. Bob just stands there with an angry look on his face and shaking his head.}

Vasco Dias: And just like that Steve Awesome ruins the dreams of Bob Pooler.

Terri Morasco: I dont know….that look on Poolers face tells me this thing isnt over yet. I know its a bit cliche but now im dying to know what Bob is going to do next.

{Bob rolls out of the ring as the show cuts to commercial}

SINGLES MATCH

Warren Kane vs Wolf Folder

{Added upon completion}

------------------------------------

SEGMENT

Strong Style and Open Weight Champions share a space

------------------------------------

{ We find IWF StrongStyle champion James Gilmore roaming the backstage area, taking a sip from a can of Orange-Vanilla Coke as he adjusts the title on his right shoulder }

James Gilmore:  Ya know somethin’ dudes and dudettes...lots of peeps are wonderin’ how I feel about bein’ YOUR two-time IWF StrongStyle champion…

{ The crowd cheers as they watch on the big screen }

James Gilmore:  Thing is, as much as I wanna think about how awesome the feelin’ is, in my mind...I wanted more.  I wanted to be the Men’s World Champion, but Jake Conway had to spoil all the fun and ruin what was supposed to be the most excellent encounter between yours truly...and Papa Bear himself, Rob Diamond!

{ The crowd cheers again as the Islander alum tosses his can into a red recycling bin. }

James Gilmore:  All I’m gonna say ‘bout that...is that my boots are still gonna be on the ground, or as Pandora once said...forward, always forward.  So with that bein’ said, I’d like to go back to where I got started in this business--and that’s doin’ interviews! And well, look who’s here…

{ James watches as Openweight Champion Brooklyn Madrox steps into the picture. }

James Gilmore:  I’ve always wanted to do an interview with the longest-reignin’ Women’s World champ and current Openweight champ, Brooklyn!  So...as 2019 comes to a close, how are ya feelin’ as 2020 inches closer?

{ Brooklyn stands there, her eyes narrowed as she looks over her shoulder }

Brooklyn Madrox: This some kind of joke? Like, is Fiona going to pop up somewhere and jump me here?

{ James ekes out a sly chuckle. }

James Gilmore:  Mama Bear?! Jump -you- from behind?!  I have a sneakin’ suspicion ya ain’t too happy about her beatin’ you in the Heiress to the Throne semis.  Let’s go back to the gig at hand, talk about the plans goin’ forward from here…

Brooklyn Madrox: Plans going forward? Well, firstly I plan on righting wrong that was the Heiress semi-finals match. Your ‘Mamma Bear’ was the better woman that night but there’s no way that I’m letting that match redefine the relationship Fiona and I have. You know,

{ she says with a smile }

Brooklyn Madrox: the one that usually ends with my foot on her throat while getting my arm raised? Secondly, I plan on exposing that, so-called, Heiress champion for the fraud she is. Everyone knows that Emma has gotten this far on dumb luck and athletic ability. But she’s operating on borrowed time. Sooner or later we’re going to come face to face and her time will have run out. 

{ She looks at Gilmore with her eyebrow cocked }

Brooklyn Madrox: What were you looking for something different? Thinking I’d be here to sing the praises of women who we both agree don’t deserve to have them sung. You were in that Extinction Event, Gilmore. You saw the performance that Eternity put on. What do YOU think of it?

James Gilmore:  Welp, as we’ve AALL learned from Survival of the Fittest--and 2019 overall--ANYTHING is possible in the IWF!  And by the way...I say you’re wrong, Emma and Fi deserve a TON of credit ‘cuz frankly, nobody expected them to make a serious run at all!  You can never count out what ya can’t see--that’s one of my rules!

{ Brooklyn looks at James with her upper lip curled in disgust }

Brooklyn Madrox: Gross … you’re for real right now aren't you? God, your such a caricature. All of this positivity is giving me a toothache. 

{ James shakes his head… }

James Gilmore:  Really now...do we REALLY wanna go back to the old days in which we were livin’ in fear that someone was gonna, say, light us on fire, kidnap, torture, or just beat the snot out of those who disagree with a select few?!  If that’s the way ya like it, I’ll leave that to your own devices…

Brooklyn Madrox: Hey, you’re all buddy buddy with some of the worst people this company has ever seen. Do we need to run down the laundry list of offenses that Steve Awesome has commited? How about your boy Rob? Remember when he had his finger cut off by Spike Kane only to still memorialize him like his savior? Pepperidge Farm remembers. 

{ She laughs and leans into Gilmore once more }

Brooklyn Madrox: So why don’t you tell ME, Mr. Positivity, what are YOU going to do in twenty-twenty? Because if it’s more of … this 

{ she motions at him } 

Brooklyn Madrox: then you can count on a few rude awakenings. 

{ James grins from ear to ear. }

James Gilmore:  My plans for 2020?!  We’ll see how they turn out inside that ring…

{ She shakes her head at him }

Brooklyn Madrox: That was the worst ‘non-answer’ I’ve ever seen. You wanted an interview with the longest reigning Woman’s World champion in company history, well Jimmy boy I’m going to give you one with the longest reigning champion PERIOD in this company. You want to know what I have in store for next year? Want to know what twenty-twenty means for ok’ Brooklyn? Domination, Gilmore. I’m going to dominate this women’s division starting with the OpenWeight title. I’m going to do with this what I did with the World title. That title was DEFINED by me just like this one soon will be. And who knows,

{ she says with a snarky smile }

Brooklyn Madrox: Maybe I’ll set my sights on Gabby’s Luchadora title next and be the first woman to hold the trifecta. Guess you’ll just have to wait and see yourself, James. 

{ James watches as Brooklyn storms off.  }

James Gilmore:  Brooklyn Madrox.  If there’s anything I’ve learned from this entire interview, we’ll just have to go back to another one of JJ’s Rules…

{ His smile grows wider as he spots a Coke machine nearby. }

James Gilmore:  “Mean dudes or dudettes don’t always finish first…”

------------------------------------

SINGLES MATCH

Mandi Matthews vs Kai Sachiko

------------------------------------

Alison Valance: the following match is scheduled for one fall!

Vasco Dias: this should be an interesting match to be sure.

Terri Morasco: Mandi has been putting her all out there and Kai has been… oddly unspecific.

{As soon as her music turns on she is rushing the ramp. She will stand on the ring post and point to herself while talking in her native tongue before pounding on her shoulder to show she is ready to go.}

Alison Valance: On her way down to the ring first, weighing in at 136 pounds Kai Sachiko!

Vasco Dias: I really wish I could see what the hype about her was.

Terri Morasco: She has a following. That’s all we need to know.

{Umbrella by All Time Low starts rocking the speakers as Mandi Matthews steps out onto the stage, a bit overwhelmed in a good way by all the people and there warm reception. She jams a bit to the music and then she jogs down to the ring as the chorus plays.}

Because when the sun shines we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end

{She slides into the ring and jams out the song with the crowd as they chant along.}

Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella-ella-ella-ay-ay-ay
Under my umbrella-ella-ella-ay-ay-ay

{The music slowly fades as Mandi smiles at the crowd.}

Alison Valance: Next down to the ring weighing in at 165 pounds… Mandi Matthews!

Vasco Dias: Mandi has had a rough year as of late.

Terri Morasco: She’s had a better year than I think you give her credit for.

{As soon as the bell rings, Mandi is out of her corner with a spear, knocking Kai into the corner. Mandi doesn’t give Kai a moment to counter before hitting her with a hip toss.}

Vasco Dias: Mandi not wasting any time here.

Terri Morasco: Apparently.

{Mand hits Kai with a DIRTY DANCING DDT!}

Vasco Dias: oh my god!

{Mandi goes for the pin
1
2
3!!!}

Alison Valance: and your winner! Mandi Matthews!

------------------------------------

SEGMENT

Eddie D has an announcement 

------------------------------------

{ We cut to “Emperor of the American Territories” Eddie D’s office. Eddie D sits proudly behind a large and ominous desk in a chair right out of the TROS trailer. }

Eddie D: So it has come to my attention two of our newer signees have a bit of a rivalry going on.

{ Eddie smiles as his hands come together in front of them. }

Eddie D: Abraxes and Hideaki. Two great kids. Two great talents. Each one very deserving of a title shot. Which is why…

{ Eddie pauses with a large grin. }

Eddie D: In two weeks I will be giving them both an Extreme Championship match against Steve Awesome in a Triple Threat Match. AND! To make sure this match goes as fairly as an Extreme title match can I am making BOB POOLER! The special guest referee. Happy Holidays!

{ Eddie cackles to himself as we head to a commercial break. }

SINGLES MATCH

Writing Challenge: 1000 word limit

Caleb Lockwood vs James Gilmore

------------------------------------

{"Sorry to disappoint you..."

The whispered, guttural intro of "Dead Man Walking" echoes over the PA, the lights beginning to strobe, and Caleb Lockwood stalks out from the back, twirling a lead pipe in his hands as he glares out at the crowd for a moment, stalking down towards the ring. After his initial glance, he seems to completely ignore the crowd, focused solely on the ring in front of him as he advances with purpose in his eyes. Caleb slides into the ring, pushing himself up to his feet, and twirls the pipe in his hand, idly handing it to the referee before walking to a corner and grabbing the ropes, leaning forward and letting his grip arrest his momentum, bouncing back with a manic energy in his movements as the lights come up and the music fades.}

Terri Morasco:  Caleb Lockwood looks like he’s ready to go!

Vasco Dias:  He -is- ready, Terri!  Get it right!!

{ An instrumental with hook version of "Shell Shocked" by Juicy J, featuring Wiz Khalifa and Ty Dolla $ign, begins to play, and a video package begins to play stock footage of waves crashing, followed by bolts of cloud-to-cloud lightning. }

"Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked..."

{ As jets of water shoot out from all directions, we tsee James Gilmore stepping out onto the stage, posing along to the hip-hop tune, before high-fiving the crowd and walking down to the ring. }

"(All for one when we fight together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(All for one when we ride together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(All for one when we fight together)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked
(This family can bear any weather)
Knock, knock, you about to get shell shocked..."

{ Once inside the ring, the Islander alum points heavenward, taking in the moments as he waits for his opponent. }

Terri Morasco:  JJ might be a two-time StrongStyle Champion, but I’m sure he’s got a lot more on his mind than what happened at Survival of the Fittest…

Vasco Dias:  He better keep his mind clear...

[DING-DING-DING!!!]

{ James Gilmore and Caleb Lockwood put on quite an entertaining match, with neither man giving an inch.  Both men traded a variety of suplexes, punches, and kicks that each scored successive two-counts. Yet controversy arose when at the 10:30 mark, the Islander alum raced up from behind the ex-Pack member and sent him head over heels courtesy of Gilmore’s signature ShellShocker! }

Terri Morasco:  There it is!!

Vasco Dias:  C’mon man, get up!!

{ James goes for the cover, with the infamous Tommy Knocker presiding over the match.  The referee makes a deliberately slow count… }

1…!

2....!!

THREEEEEEEE...YEAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

{ Caleb got his shoulders up at just the right moment in time!  JJ stands up and has a few choice words with the zebra, arguing that the count was deliberately slow!  We hear an audible “JUDAS PRIEST!” shout from JJ’s lips as he and Tommy bicker like a baseball manager and an umpire! }

Terri Morasco:  Uh-oh, looks like we might have a difference of opinion here!

Vasco Dias:  Arguin’ with the ref will get you nowhere!!

{ Tommy pokes at Gilmore’s chest, urging him to shut up or face immediate disqualification!  As Caleb slowly pulls himself back up to his feet, JJ has had enough of Knocker’s bullshit and gives him a shove; Tommy shoves the ex-Islander back as the argument becomes more fierce and pointed!  Lockwood, smirking from ear to ear, Suddenly, Gilmore punches Tommy in the face, sending him reeeling into the corner… }

Terri Morasco:  JJ couldn’t take it anymore!!

Vasco Dias:  He can’t do that!  That idiot just struck a referee--OH, YES!!!

{ ...and ust as he turns around, Gilmore winds up paying for the error as Caleb plasters him with his signature springboard roundhouse kicked called the Beast of War! }

Vasco Dias:  Better than a fine--HA!!

Terri Morasco:  Shouldn’t have gotten overhyped like that,…

{ Caleb then proceeds to finish off James with his trademark CURB STOMP and quickly goes for the pin, Tommy Knocker making a more “normal” count… }

1…!

2…!!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DING-DING-DING!!!]

SEGMENT

Being Infamous is...FINE

------------------------------------

{ We join Keybo Shabaz in the IWF interview area with IWF World Champion, Rob Diamond. Rob adjusts his belt slightly as Keybo is cued in. }

Keybo Shabaz: What’s up you guys. Keybo Shabaz here with still IWF World Champion, Rob Diamond.

{ Rob smirks and winks at the camera. }

Keybo Shabaz: Now Rob, this whole thing was scheduled for you to kind of gloat or whatever but I want to ask some hard hitting questions.

Rob Diamond: Keybo, I wouldn’t expect any less from you.

Keybo Shabaz: First thing first, is Being InFamous fine?

{ Rob looks surprised. }

Rob Diamond: We’re better than fine! We’re all champions again! Being InFamous for the second time in 2019 is the most dominant stable in the company!

Keybo Shabaz: And the only stable.

Rob Diamond: Doesn’t change the facts.

Keybo Shabaz: True but James came out of the Extinction Event with a title he wasn’t aiming to win.

Rob Diamond: Hey, I know what you’re trying to do but the fact remains, Being InFamous are all champions again. We. Are. Fine.

Keybo Shabaz: You say that but from what I’ve heard is James wants another shot at you.

Rob Diamond: Maybe he does and maybe it’ll happen but as long as he’s the Strong Style Champion we don’t have to worry about that. It’s a rule.

{ Keybo smirks now. }

Keybo Shabaz: Well there is another rumor making the rounds about IWF-

Rob Diamond: Stop.

{ Rob cuts Keybo off. }

Rob Diamond: WE ARE FINE! Steve is fine. Fiona is fine. James is fine. I’m fine! Being InFamous is FINE!

{ Rob storms off on Keybo before he can ask any more questions. }
