Monday Night SacrificeMonday 13th January Honda Center, Anaheim, California ----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "A Challenger Emerges"
---------------------------------------------------------- { Sacrifice opens with “Sail” by Devildriver playing, we zoom around the arena to the thousands and thousands of fans, each here to support a different superstar. }Vasco Dias: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to another edition of Monday Night Sacrifice. { We close in on the ring where Simon de Montfort stands in a black suit, to either side is Angel with amber Richards by his side and Spike Kane, on the outside of the ring are Killian Creed, Bob Pooler, Nero Blake, Tank Armod, Christine Rochette and Jake “the Ace” Conway. }Terri Morasco: As you can see we are going to start the show off with Simon and the rest of his… What are they? A Mafia? Vasco Dias: More like a gang of blood thirsty animals. Did you see what Spike and the Empire did to Gib on Thursday? Terri Morasco: I did and it was appalling. { Simon smiles as the crowds chorus of boos only intensifies as the music dies down. }Simon de Montfort: Ladies and Gentlemen, I’d like to start of the night properly and thank the IWF Elite for their smooth handling of both last weeks Sacrifice and the debut of our new Thursday Night broadcast, Battleground! { Simon turns and gives a small applause to both Angel and Spike who just nod. }Vasco Dias: What is the point of this? Terri Morasco: Back patting? Simon de Montfort: If it wasn’t for these two men by my side and their trusted associates around the ring I do not think we’d of been able to keep the train on the rails last week, what with our COO’s family emergency. Vasco Dias: THAT ANGEL CAUSED! Simon de Montfort: Not to mention the ratings record breaking debut of Battleground, headlined by former and future Imperial World Champion, Spike Kane. { The boos are almost deafening. }Simon de Montfort: However it is a new week which means it’s time for new business, first and foremost is the announcement of the newest IWF Cruiser Weight Championship Number One Contender… { Simon turns to look at Angel who feigns surprise before Simon hands him the microphone. }Angel: Thank you, I must say I am surprised by this announcemet… { Angel is quickly cut off by “King of the World” as Roberto Verona takes the stage, his face red with anger and a microphone in his hand. }Roberto Verona: Enough! You listen here you son of a bitch! Last week, you and that little tramp of yours stepped over a line. You really want a personal war with me? Then you've got one! { The crowd pops huge for Verona. }Roberto Verona: But what you don’t have is a Cruiser Weight title shot! { Angel glares coldly at Verona. }Roberto Verona: I’m the COO around here and- Simon de Montfort: And I’m the chairman of the company and this matter has already been brought to the boards attention and approved. Know your place Mr. Verona. { Roberto almost laughs. }Roberto Verona: The board, huh? I’m not an idiot Simon, I know you want to control IWF, but it’s going to take a lot more than assembled group of misfits and delinquents to do it! { The crowd is fully behind Verona. }Roberto Verona: But I’ll play along. So Angel finally gets his shot at the Cruiser Weight title? At Mr. Bob Pooler there? Ok. Well you know what? I think we should make Angel ’s first shot at “his” Cruiser Weight title something to remember, a match for the ages. So how about we make it a LADDER MATCH! { The crowd pops as Verona smirks. }Roberto Verona: Featuring Bob Pooler defending against Angel … AND GJENREI! { Angel drops his mic and turns very slowly to Simon before saying something to him. }Roberto Verona: And another man, who hasn’t had a shot at any gold since this company opened… ME! { And that’s the final straw for Angel as he bursts forward and threatens to leave the ring, Amber and Spike hold him back as Verona just laughs to himself. }Simon de Montfort: Very well, you can have your shot but I also have an announcement you may be interested in. The matter of Davey Ortega’s first challenger, IWF’s very own winner of the first Gladiator television show… Malaki Toala! { Roberto doesn’t seemed pleased but Angel now calms down as Spike just nods in approval. }Simon de Montfort: For over one hundred and twenty days the IWF finally had a champion it could be proud of. You barred men like Spike Kane from entering into the Heir to the Throne Tournament so a career failure like Joe Everyman could finally have his chance. That was the first of a series of bad decisions Mr Verona, from now on Angel and myself will be taking a more hands on approach to IWF starting with the champions, their contenders and working our way down. You aided in dethroning the greatest champion we had, Spike Kane and put another career failure at the head of this company. { “Warrior” by Disturbed hits as Malaki Toala and Joey Leroux make their way out onto the stage, behind them are the Brothers Black though they don’t look terribly happy to be headed down to the ring where Ragnarok are. Malaki and Joey enter the ring as the Brothers just stare down Nero and Tank. }Simon de Montfort: I am personally going to right the ship and make sure Davey Ortega doesn’t have the chance to drag this company down with him and his eventual fall from grace. { Simon is then cut off by “Land of Confusion” as Davey Ortega takes the stage next to Roberto Verona. }Davey Ortega: Simon, maybe you didn't hear me clearly last week so let me reiterate a point I wanted so badly to get across. I am NOT Joe Everyman. Unlike every other Imperial Champion, and yes including your buddy Spike Kane, I do not fear the challenges ahead. I will not crack under the pressure and then run to the bottle, and Simon I will never bow down to you or your idea that I am some how bad for IWF. { The crowd cheers for Davey Ortega }Davey Ortega: You are so quick to remind everyone of my spotty past by calling me a failure but it has been my experience that failure is not often associated with gold. I didn't climb all the way to the top just to besmirch IWF, and I will gladly take on your Gladiator because that is what a champion does. I may of been a failure years ago, but since then I have redeemed myself! I beat Spike Kane one on one, and I will beat Malaki Toala one on one as well. { Simon, Spike and Angel all glare at Roberto and Davey as we take our first break. }----------------------------------------------------------
TRIPLE THREAT MAN OF STEEL MATCH Mac Bane vs Killian Creed vs "The Redeemer" Todd Williams
---------------------------------------------------------- {“Badass” by Saliva erupts from the arena sound system. Bane walks out onto the stage. There is no pyro only the continuation of the lyrics as he slowly makes his way down the ramp not really shaking hands or high fiving the fans but allowing them to pat him on the back and arms as he walks by. His focus is the ring and the battle that awaits. Once he reaches the ring apron he throws his arms in the air forming an “X” in a tribute to his favorite enemy. He turns and faces the crowd and flashes a brief smile before turning back around and sliding under the bottom rope.}Terri Morasco: Mac Bane is a powerhouse... Vasco Dias: He has been so impressive and I get the feeling he is building to a great career in IWF. {“Animal I Have Become” by Three Days Grace hits the speaker system; which brings about a chorus of boos from the crowd. The volume intensifies as Killian Creed steps onto the stage. He pauses for a moment, looking at the crowd with an expressionless face, before moving towards the ring. He slides under the bottom rope and, similar to the way he did on the stage, he pauses in the middle of the ring and looks at the crowd. He proceeds towards a neutral corner and awaits the start of the match.}Vasco Dias: Killian Creed lost to Mike Laszlo but that match was so intense and Laszlo is no joke. Terri Morasco: Killian proved himself to be a worthy champion.... {“Still Fly” by The Devil Wears Prada begins to blast across the speakers. As it does so two spotlights quickly hit the ramp and we are able to see the silhouette of a man standing behind the curtain along with that of a woman. Todd Williams slowly backs up through the curtain backwards and extends his arms out into a crucifix. He isn't alone as his wife Fiona Williams is with him. The fans immediately boo him loudly and he shrugs it off as he finally reaches the ring. Todd grins as he walks inside the ring staring at all of the booing fans. Fiona pops an Umbrella open as she blocks Todd receiving the boos and the spit from the crowd.
T-Will: HATERS GONNA HATE... YALL KNOW YALL LOVE ME. DON'T GET MAD BECAUSE I DEAL WITH NOTHIN BUT THE BENJAMINS!!!
Todd grins as he receives more boos in return. He runs to the top of the turnbuckles raising his hand proudly in the air before he backflips off of them. He waits in the corner as Fiona stands outside clapping her hands for her man.}Terri Morasco: Todd Williams means business... Vasco Dias: He's been somewhat impressive but the thing with Todd is it's all about potential, he has it..we want him to realize it... {The bell rings and Todd and Killian both go for the bigger man in Mac Bane. They beat him down in the corner with Todd grabbing the top rope and laying in the boots to him. Killian grabs Todd and pushes him back before laying in hard roundhouse kicksto Mac's midsection. Todd then grabs Killian and shoves him out of the way grabbing a handful of Mac's hair laying in hard right hands to the skull. Mac holds the top rope keeping himself up as Killian grabs Todd and pulls him back arguing that it's his turn. Todd argues back and yells "I'm Todd Williams", Mac Bane explodes out of the corner and hits both men with a doublle clothesline. The crowd pops liking Mac Bane over the antics of Todd and the past of Killian.}Terri Morasco: Mac explodes out of the corner Vasco Dias: Todd and Killian were taking turns there and got in each others way.. {Mac picks Todd up and hits a hard scoop slam before turning and hitting hard strikes on Killian in the corner, he then turns and drops a knee on Todd. He kneel's and then reigns down hard rights to Todd's dome. Killian shakes off the attack from Mac and runs in hitting a running dropkick to Mac's head sending him down. Mac rolls and gets back to his feet, Killian hits a spinning heel kick and kips up before turning and superkicking a kneeling Todd. Killian then grabs Mac's leg and locks him in a single leg crab. Mac reaches for the ropes and gets a finger on them, but before the referee can break the hold Todd runs in with a step up enzugiri to Killian.}Vasco Dias: Oh Todd with the enzugiri... Terri Morasco: A brutal kick Vasco {Mac pulls himself up as Todd stomps on Killian, Todd yells "I MEAN BITNESS!", Mac steps up behind Todd, Todd spins around right into an STO from Mac, Mac then pulls Todd up and uses his amazing strength to gorilla press Todd over his head, he pumps Todd up and down a few times before walking forward and letting Todd drop face first behind him. Killian comes flying in with hard forearms to Mac over and over again he hits the forearms, Mac stumbles back and Killian grabs his hair before laying in a european uppercut sending Mac backwards and down to the mat.}Terri Morasco: Oh did you HEAR that?... Vasco Dias: That was brutal Terri! {Killian grabs Mac's leg and looks like he's going for a single leg crab again, Todd has different idea's though and comes in grabbing Killian from the side flipping him backwards onto his back locking him in the dream catcher, he stretches Killian back but Mac comes in and hit's the trainwreck!(spear) forcing todd to release the hold and land hard wrapping his arms around his ribs. Mac drops an elbow on todd and again and again really punishing his ribs.}Vasco Dias: Mac bane is destroying todd's ribs! Terri Morasco: But he better watch out for Killian.... {Killian pulls himself up, Mac turns around and he and Killian go at it with rights and lefts hitting thunderous shots, Mac swings a haymaker right, Killian spins and hits a backfist as a counter sending mac down. Killian turns as Todd tries to come in on him with a superkick, Killian catches todd's leg and spins him around before locking in the rear nacked choke, he takes todd down and before mac can break it up Todd taps!}----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "I See You"
---------------------------------------------------------- {We see Mike and Alexis in the locker room, talking over their matches for the night when there’s a knock at the door.}Mike Laszlo: Come in. {A stagehand comes in and hands an envelope to Mike.}Mike Laszlo: What the hell is this? Stagehand: I don’t know sir. I was asked to bring that to you. Mike Laszlo: By who? Stagehand: They prefer to be anonymous. {The stagehand runs off as Mike looks the envelope over before opening it. Reaching in he pulls out a DVD that simply says “Watch Me!” on the cover. He pops it into a nearby television and watches.}{The camera cuts to a nightvision camera slowly focusing into view. As it whirs and zooms the blur eventually fades revealing Mike Lazslo and Alexis Caffrey sound asleep in bed together. Mike snores softly as Alexis lays there sound asleep unmoving save for her chest rising and falling. for about a straight five minutes it is just this Mike and her sleeping soundly in they're hotel room. Suddenly there is a strange distortion in the tape and static takes over the screen before returning to normal revealing another man in the room standing over him. The long hair though tinted green is familiar as the figure just stands and stares. This goes on unmoving for about another five minutes before the figure looks at the camera revealing it plainly to be Sephiroth du Lac who simply draws a finger to his lips as if to motion silence. The tape distorts once more into static and returns again revealing only the two sleeping figures without the strange intruder. The camera then moves shakily toward the bed to the side of Lazslo zooming in on his face. gently a hand moves down, a soft feminine hand wiping a small strand of hair away from his face as he snorts a bit. The hand draws back for but a moment but Mike just nuzzles up to the pillow again. The hand then touches his face softly as Mike smiles in dreaming bliss as the hand finally withdraws and the tape ends.} {Alexis looks at Mike who is staring a whole through the set.}Alexis Caffrey: What the hell is that? Mike Laszlo: That’s a little much. Creepy bastard. Alexis Caffrey: HE’S WATCHING US IN OUR SLEEP!? {Mike says nothing but stares in anger at the blank screen as the scene fades.}----------------------------------------------------------
SINGLES MATCH Ana Valentine vs Alexis Caffrey
---------------------------------------------------------- {“Cult of Love” by Living Colour hits the sound system with a slow piano theme. The drums beat as "Cult of Personality" is mashed in just as Alexis and Mike walk out onto the stage. Mike steps back and lets Alexis pose for the cheering crowd as he claps along with them, urging on his girlfriend. Alexis heads to the ring followed by Mike as she is announced.
Alison Valance: Making her way to the ring, from Cleveland, Ohio, weighing in at 115 pounds, Alexis Caffreeeey!!!
She gets to the ring and climbs up on the apron and into the ring. She heads to the corner opposite the entrance ramp as Mike climbs onto the apron to give her words of encouragement and further instruction.}Terri Morasco: Alexis has been impressive lately... Vasco Dias: I see great things for her {Personal Jesus by Marilyn Manson hits the speakers. Ana steps out and places a perfectly manicured hand to her pink lips, she presses her fingertips into a kiss and them blows it out to the crowd, before flashing them a sly smirk. She mockingly makes a sign of the cross across her chest, before pointing at herself. She then makes her way down to the ring and slides under the bottom rope, in a crawl forward fashion and pulls up from her feet all the way up with a bend at the hips easily, before moving off to a corner to stretch out.}Terri Morasco: Ana Valentine is one of the best in the company, the ruby champion and many consider her to be even better than Amber Richards... Vasco Dias: Don't tell Amber that... {The bell rings but Ana has already attacked Alexis, she runs up and levels her with a hard forearm shot. Alexis covers up and Ana grabs the top rope and stomps down hard over and over, the referee pulls Ana back and warns her as Alexis was in the ropes. Ana pushes the referee out of the way and clotheslines Alexis over the top rope to the floor. She slides out of the ring and as Alexis tries to get up Ana grabs her pants and the back of her shirt and runs Alexis head first into the steel ring steps. Ana stands above Alexis who is holding her head and breathes deeply looking around at the crowd who seems to be confused as to cheer or boo.}Vasco Dias: The fans torn over both ladies here terri... Terri Morasco: Ana is already showing us the fire she has inside... {Ana pulls Alexis up by her hair and then throws her backwards causing Alexis to slam into the barricade back first. Ana slides back into the ring and back out again to break the count. As she slides back out Alexis gets to her feet and leaps up with a clothesline sending Ana down. Alexis pulls herself up still sore from the onslaught she's had to endure in the match opening. Alexis slides in the ring and Ana follows shortly, but before Ana can reach her vertical base Alexis comes in with a hard knee to the side of Ana's head, she then drops to her knee's grabs a handful of Ana's hair and starts raining down hard right hands.}Terri Morasco: Oh what hard right hands... Vasco Dias: They do seem very stiff....she's pulling no punches {Alexis gets to her feet and calls for Ana to get up, as she does Alexis runs in going for a swinging neckbreaker, Ana spins the same way and gets out of it and as both women turn to face one another Ana buries a kick to Alexis' stomach and draws her in close picking her up and slamming her down with a belly to belly suplex, Ana then grabs the top rope and climbs facing out of the ring, she goes for a moonsault, Alexis rolls forward but Ana is able to land on her feet. Ana runs at Alexis who ducks and catches Ana with a uranage slam, she pins 1.....2....Ana kicks out. Alexis gets to her feet and as Ana gets up she runs in with a shining wizard.}Terri Morasco: Alexis with a beautiful combination of moves Vasco Dias: Alexis Caffery is one of my favorite diamonds {Alexis grabs Ana's legs and locks in a sharpshooter, Ana pushes up on her hands to straighten her back and stop some of the pain. Ana reaches back and grabs Alexis' leg and pulls on it causing her to fall forward. Ana pulls her leg out of the hold and both ladies struggle to their feet, Alexis turns around right into a heel kick from Ana who goes for the pin 1....2...Alexis kicks out, Ana floats over Alexis' body and locks in an Ankle lock. Alexis quickly rolls forward out of it but ends up eating a cupids arrow german suplex landing on the back of her head.}Vasco Dias: OH Alexis got folded up like an accordian... Terri Morasco: Ouch! {Alexis holds the back of her head and neck as Ana gets to her feet and stalks her. Alexis slowly gets up and Ana goes for the cupids bow spinebuster, Alexis hits Ana with a hard right hand staggering her, she then leaps forward connecting with a superkick sending Ana down. Alexis grabs Ana and pulls her up she takes her into the corner and goes for a tornado ddt, Ana blocks it and then throws Alexis back with a northern lights suplex. Ana goes for the pin 1....2...Alexis kicks out}Terri Morasco: A close two count... Vasco Dias: I thought it was over! {Ana gets up and Alexis runs in, Ana ducks down and picks her up hitting the cupids bow spinebuster out of nowhere!, she pins 1....2.....3}Vasco Dias: And it's over!... Terri Morasco: Alexis with a valiant effort but in the end Ana was too good ----------------------------------------------------------
SEGMENT "I Told You Not To…"
---------------------------------------------------------- {The lights flicker in the arena and as they come back on we see Sephiroth Du Lac appear in front of Alexis, Abel behind her. She looks around scared as Sephiroth raises a microphone to his lips.}Sephiroth Du Lac: Fear not young girl for I am not here for you. I’m here for that weak excuse of a man you call a boyfriend. You’re just bait. {Alexis is visibly angered by his comments and slaps him across the face prompting Abel to grab her by the hair as Sephiroth laughs it off. He taunts a little bit more before taking her by the hair himself prompting Laszlo to run down. Seph, holding onto Alexis, uses her as a human shield before yelling demands into the microphone.}Sephiroth Du Lac: One step closer and this precious young girl ceases to exist tomorrow. {Laszlo looks on helpless as an evil grin crawls across Sephiroth’s face. He looks out to the crowd who don’t know what to expect before kissing Alexis on the lips, spewing the red mist in her mouth causing her to gag which infuriates Mike. Mike jumps up on the apron and Sephiroth looks up...}Sephiroth Du Lac: I told you not to move! {Abel stands in Mike’s way as Sephiroth quickly snatches Alexis into position and hits her with the Impaler DDT he calls the “Fallen Angel” Mike tries to rush in but is pushed back by Abel as the lights go out. They are quick to come back on and we see Alexis out cold, her lips stained red in the middle of the ring and Mike looking around on the apron before jumping in to Alexis’ aide as we cut to commercial}

SINGLES MATCH Mercedes Vargas vs Eternity
---------------------------------------------------------- Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of “Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me” by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd. Alison Valance: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, making her way to the ring, from Buenos Aires, Argentina…MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS! Cheers, boos and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. She vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes while waiting for her opponent(s) to arrive. Terri Morasco: Here comes a very promising young talent... Vasco Dias: She claims to have no fear of her opponent here tonight.... The lights in the arena go down to a blue hue and purple smoke begins to fill the entrance way as the banging drums of "Apex Predator" by Otep resound throughout the arena, the sirens and the lyrics introduce Eternity to the audience and as the adults boo, the children seem to fear the shadowy woman who is wearing a black hat and a veil with her head bowed as she walks down the ramp. She stops in the middle of the ramp and takes a bow, taking her veiled black hat off and posing with it in her outstretched arms. She continues her journey down the ramp, skipping and carrying her hat in her right hand accompanied by the chorus. Alison Valance: And her opponent, from The Other Side.....EEEETTTERRRRRRRRNNNNIIIIITTTTY! She slides under the bottom rope into the ring and when she reaches the centre, she transitions into a skip, over to the turnbuckle where she hangs her hat on a ringpost, patting it. She then skips to the middle of the ring and gets down on one knee, a leg outstretched behind her, as she looks heavenward and raises an arm in front of her, her hand reaching towards the sky. This gesture now triggers the lights to slowly be raised back up to normal levels as her music starts also to fade away. Vasco Dias: Now here is a woman who came close to defeating Amber Richards at Metamorphosis... Terri Morasco: You have to believe that Eternity is looking to get back in the title picture... Vasco Dias: Well I know Mercedes is hungry and a big win over the former number one contender would put her right in the hunt for the Diamonds World Championship, but as for what Eternity thinks about that, I really couldn't tell you Terri. I don't think anyone can... Mercy's confident demeanour seems to grow as she watches her opponent rise to her feet. Mercy shoots towards Eternity and tackles her to the ground as the bell rings, wasting no time at all.Terri Morasco: The fiery determination of the Argentine Assassin is on display right from the opening bell here... Vasco Dias: Vargas really is not wasting any time here! Perhaps she figures the best way to conquer fear is to confront it head on. T erri Morasco: Or she really isn't afraid... Vasco Dias: Amber Richards has shown the division that Eternity is fallible, maybe that's inspired some of the Diamonds to bring the fight to her... Mercy is relentless as she punches Eternity across the face. Mercy lands a second and then a third, and a fourth. Mercy stops only to talk trash to her opponent. Eternity responds by blocking the fifth shot and spitting purple mist in Mercy's face to escape the onslaught. Mercy immediately clutches her face and rolls off Eternity, desperately trying to wipe the mist from her eyes. Eternity sits up and starts laughing as she gets to her feet. Mercy stumbles to her feet and frantically starts swinging, but with her sight compromised, she hits nothing but air. Eternity mocks Vargas by skipping in a circle around her. One of Mercy's wildshots looks like it might be on target but Eternity grabs Mercy's wrist, inches from her face, blocking it before twisting Vargas' arm behind her back as Mercedes screams. Eternity then scoops her up and slams her right into the middle of the canvas on her own arm.Terri Morasco: Eternity takes control of the match, stopping her opponent's momentum. Vasco Dias: Eternity is full of surprises and that is partly why she's such a formidable opponent. Eternity looks down at the fallen Vargas and runs across the ring, bouncing off the ropes and on the rebound, she drops a leg across the throat of the young Mercedes.Terri Morasco: Eternity calls that the Ligature Mark. Vasco Dias: I call that devastating...
Eternity pulls Mercy to her feet and keeps her at arm's length whilst a desperate Mercedes keeps striking the air between them. Mercy stops and decides that her best opportunity would present itself when Eternity goes for her next move. Eternity pulls her in and Mercy uses her best judgment and now gouges Eternity's eyes with her thumbs, the Diamonds official warns her on this occasion, as Eternity stumbles backwards, clutching her face.Terri Morasco: Smart strategy there! Vasco Dias: I wouldn't say smart so much as desperate... Eternity turns away from her opponent and the opportunistic Argentine has enough ring presence to sneak up behind Eternity and pulls her down into a schoolgirl pin...1...2...Vasco Dias: Mercy is trying to do whatever she can to end this match quickly... Terri Morasco: She still can't see clearly so I can't say I blame her... Eternity kicks out and Avery slaps the mat in frustration. Eternity seems annoyed to have been almost caught out as she finds her feet and kicks a rising Mercy in the face, immediately flooring her. Eternity then proceeds to stomp the hell out of Vargas in the middle of the mat and the referee tries to warn her off, but it is of little use as Eternity reaches down and pulls Mercy to her feet by her hair, Eternity then kicks Mercy in the gut and pulls her up and over her head in a beautiful and quick snap suplex. Eternity is then quick to her feet as she gets up.Terri Morasco: I think Eternity is through playing around here... Vasco Dias: I think you might be right, Terri... Eternity returns her attention to her opponent, waiting for her to get back to her feet, and as Mercy does so, she is wise enough to duck a clothesline attempt by Eternity, and once again seizing her opportunity, Vargas hits Eternity with a lightning quick superkick that rattles Eternity's jaw, the crowd roar but it is not clear whether they are cheering Mercy or simply the manoeuvre she managed to pull off. With Eternity down, Vargas prioritises her objectives and slides out of the ring and grabs a water bottle from a ringside fan in the front row. Eternity then uses the half full bottle to wash the mist from her eyes by spilling the contents over her eyes and face. The lucky fan seems to enjoy the impromptu pseudo-shower as Mercedes shakes her head under the stream of water. She uses her hands to wipe her face and tidy up her hair, and it is only upon hearing that the official has reached a count of five that Mercedes finally runs back into the ring to continue the match. Mercedes grabs a woozy Eternity by her hair and points to the corner across the ring before whipping her opponent into it. In a surprising show of agility, Eternity manages to stop herself from colliding into it and actually leap frogs to the top rope. On her perch, she turns around and waits, poised to strike as Mercy makes her way over to Eternity. Eternity leaps off the turnbuckle and strikes Mercy in the face with a diving clothesline.Vasco Dias: Oh! What a clothesline! Terri Morasco: I honestly don't think I've ever seen such agility from Eternity before... Eternity laughs as she rolls back to her feet and in an impressive display of power, lifts a prone Vargas off the mat and turns with Mercy in her arms before bringing Avery's ribs down across her bended knee in a perfect rib breaker. Eternity immediately follows up with the cover...1...2...Mercy gets a shoulder up, undeterred by her advantage Eternity gets to her feet and immediately pulls Vargas to hers, hitting a Butterfly Suplex, Eternity then drags Mercy to her feet and whips her across the ring, and on the rebound catching her with a beautiful tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Eternity attempts a cover...1...2...the determined Vargas will not be put away that easily as she gets a shoulder up. Vasco Dias: A couple of quick near falls there... Terri Morasco: Now it appears that it is Eternity who wants to end this quickly... Eternity pulls Mercy to her feet and places her on her shoulders, looking to hit Mercy with the Eternal Rest, but the clever Vargas squirms out of it and hops down behind Eternity before grabbing her by the arm and striking her in the face with her signature Tango for Two hook kick. Once again Eternity is down, and Mercedes hooks the leg as she covers her opponent. 1...2...Eternity kicks out! Terri Morasco: Vargas seems to have turned it around and actually has Eternity reeling here... Vasco Dias: I must admit Mercedes is really surprising me here. Sensing that she still has the advantage, Mercy then pulls Eternity up into a seated position the canvas, before grabbing Eternity's arms and trying to pull them back so she can lock in her Peligro Rojo, but Eternity's strength advantage is too great, so Mercy gives up the attempt and instead pulls Eternity up to her feet and locks in a time-tested classic, the sleeper-hold. To give her some extra leverage with the move, Mercedes hops and wraps her legs around Eternity's waist. Eternity is brought down to one knee and it appears that her eyes have started to glaze over. The diligent referee does her job by raising Eternity's arm. It falls. The referee raises it a second time and again it falls, but the third time it stops mid way much to the annoyance of the determined Vargas who furiously shakes her head, refusing to relinquish her advantage or the hold. Her resilience forces Eternity to expend valuable energy as she slowly gets back up to her feet. Eternity stumbles, holding her breath as she walks backward towards a nearby corner and rams Mercedes spine first into the turnbuckle, not once, not twice but three times. Mercedes cannot hold on any longer and crumples into the corner whilst a relieved Eternity clutches her throat and stumbles out of the corner.Terri Morasco: My God, can you believe what we have just seen?! Vasco Dias: Somehow, some way Eternity managed to break the hold and escape her fate! Unbelievable! Eternity turns around and she peels a woozy Mercy off the mat and walks her out of the corner with her dead weight on her shoulder before dropping her with an Oklahoma Slam. Eternity stays on all fours and slowly looks out ahead of her, a scary look in her eyes. She then pulls Mercy to her feet and whips her across the ring and on the rebound catches her with a Side Effect. Eternity stays seated on the canvas for a moment, bowing her head in rememberance. Vasco Dias: What the hell is Eternity doing here? Terri Morasco: I don't know! Eternity then rolls over and stays on all fours as she looks over at the fallen Mercy, cocking her head to the side she smiles as Vargas starts to stir. Eternity gets to her feet and claps, shouting encouragement for her opponent to get up.Vasco Dias: Eternity might be looking to finish it here! Terri Morasco: That would be my best guess.... Mercy is back to her feet and goes out of her way to prove that she is not ready to be put down just yet and starts to unload a series of stiff right hands to Eternity's face, forcing her back against the ropes. Mercy then grabs Eternity by the arm and whips her across the ring. On the rebound, Vargas hits her opponent with her Double Jeopardy backbreaker...Terri Morasco: Double Jeopardy! Vasco Dias: Ouch! Vargas is certainly proving that you can never count her out... Vargas scrambles for the pin attempt as if her life depends on it and in her haste makes the costly oversight of not hooking the leg. Eternity launches Mercy off her at a count of two. Eternity quickly gets to her feet as does Mercy across the ring. Out of sheer desperation, Mercedes rushes at Eternity looking to strike her down with a clothesline. Eternity ducks the attempt and then scoops Mercy up from behind into a pumphandle transitioned into a gutbuster... Vasco Dias: THE Y-INCISION! Terri Morasco: We could be near the end here... Eternity scrambles for the pin attempt as if her life depends on it and in her haste makes the costly oversight of not hooking the leg. Eternity launches Mercy off her at a count of two. Eternity quickly gets to her feet as does Mercy across the ring. Out of sheer desperation, Mercedes rushes at Eternity and manages to catch her with her RPM head scissors which she flawlessly manages to transition into a small package pin... 1...2...3...Vasco Dias: AND JUST THAT QUICKLY ITS OVER! Terri Morasco: VARGAS HAS JUST PULLED OFF A MAJOR UPSET HERE! Alison Valance: AND HERE IS YOUR WINNER...MERRRCEEEEEEEEDDDDEEESSSS VAAAAAAARRRRRRGAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSS! Mercedes cannot quite believe it herself as she jumps up to her feet and throws her hands up in triumph and celebration of a victory that was hard earned and is sure to put her back in the race to a title here in IWF.---------------------------------------------------------- SEGMENT"A hot kinda crazy"---------------------------------------------------------- {We cut to backstage where Alice Pleasant is wandering almost aimlessly around backstage. She runs her hands along one of the walls as she half-skips along, laughing and leaning slightly to the left to quietly converse with someone or something we are unable to see.
As she rounds the corner, she comes to the dressing room door of 'RAGNAROK'. Alice stops for a moment a with a small smile on her face, she cocks her head to one side and studies the door quietly. She glances away and to the side as she slips her hand into her pocket, searching for some item or another. Suddenly a hand hits Alice's shoulder and due to her distraction, pushes her back almost off her feet, taking several steps up, Alice looks up with a confused, angry expression.
As the camera pans out, we see Jade - Nero Blake's consort, or, girlfriend of sorts - looking flustered and annoyed. She throws her hands to her hips and leans towards Alice who starts to laugh leaning her own face close to Jade's.}Alice: Dirty girl, sticky hands, touching me will not end well for you... {Jade opens her mouth a couple of times as though she is going to respond, but she has no idea what to say to this. As she flounders confused, Alice grabs her, one hand in her hair and the other at her throat and slams her against the wall. Jade claws and Alice's hand and draws blood, forcing Alice's grasp around her throat to loosen and then release.}Jade: You fucking psycho bitch! Stay Away from Nero!! {Alice laughs again and shrugs slightly, she turns as though to walk away, with a shake of the head, but Jade reaches out and returns the gesture by grabbing a handful of Alice's hair and pulling her back. Alice rears back on her foot and turns, slapping Jade across the face hard. Jade screams with a mix of annoyance and pain and lunges forward as though to grab at Alice, but her forearm is grabbed as she is yanked backwards.
Alice glances up and makes a huff type noise as she rolls her eyes and Angel, who has since exited the dressing room, holds Jade by her forearm barely a safe distance from Alice.}Angel: If you two.... "ladies" have a score to settle... You can do so in the ring. {Jade's eyes go wide in shock as Alice smirks slightly, she actually steps back and bows in a flurry with a laugh before she nods her head.}Alice: Better get to church good little girl... Last rites must be read... {With a wink Alice, which is directed behind the pair before her, Alice turns and bounds off down the hall.
Jade pulls away from Angel, her face a picture of panic and confusion as she turns to go back inside the dressing room. But standing in the door way is Nero who has a look of amusement and.... enjoyment, on his face. Jade turns and pushes past them both, muttering under her breath about the match and the things she is going to do to 'that bitch.
Nero looks at Angel with a small smirk as Angel passes him to walk back into the dressing room, he stops in the doorway and looks at his brother in a strange way.}Angel: Keep an eye on her... She's that dangerous kind of crazy... Nero: She's a hot kinda crazy... {The brothers turn and enter the dressing room, shutting the door with a slam behind them.}----------------------------------------------------------
SINGLES MATCH Bob Pooler vs Sephiroth Du Lac
---------------------------------------------------------- {The sound of a toy being wound just before ‘Blah blah blablah’ hits the PA. Seconds later, the drum beat hits and “Get Jinxed” blasts forth throughout the arena. Pooler walks out onto the stage sporting a smirk and soaks in the mixed reaction before making his way down towards the ring.}Alison Valance: "Making his way to the ring; from Manchester, New Hampshire; weighing in at two hundred and twenty-eight pounds … Bob … POOOOOLER!" {Pooler slides into the ring and makes his way back to his feet. He walks to the nearest corner and climbs to the second turnbuckle and plays to the crowd. He drops back down to the ring and grabs hold of the ropes, tugging down on them and taking a moment to stretch before the match can begin.}Terri Morasco: "There he is, ladies and gentlemen; YOUR Cruiserweight Champion, Bob Pooler." Vasco Dias: "Pooler may not be winning any popularity contests with anyone backstage, but he's winning where it matters, in that ring. He's as hot as they come right now." Terri Morasco: "But he's used to squaring off against wrestlers of a similar smaller stature. How will he fair tonight against the larger Sephiroth du Lac?" Vasco Dias: "That's why they wrestle the matches, Terri. We're about to find out the answer to that question, and much more." {A red mist hits the entranceway as the lights dim to a blood red all around the arena as "Requiem for a Dream" begins to play. Slowly the figure of Sephiroth and his lovely wife, Maria step out from behind the curtain with a glass chalice filled with a blood red liquid in one hand and his trademark cane in the other as Maria clings onto him with one arm.} Alison Valance: "And the opponent.... Weighing in at two hundred and fort-six pounds... SEPHIROTH DUUUUU LAAAAAAAAAC!" {Slowly he walks down to the ring head down occasionally sipping his glass as maria struts beside him. He walks to the ring steps and slowly climbs sipping his chalice once more before wiping his feet and stepping in the ring. He does not pose instead setting the cane and chalice in the corner and removing his coat before handing it to maria who waits at ringside blowing a kiss to him.}Vasco Dias: "This Sepiroth... I don't know what to make of him. He's got all the tools to make it to the big time here in IWF, but does he have the temperament?" Terri Morasco: "Du Lac leaves lesser wrestlers quaking in their boots at his sheer aura of darkness, but tonight he's facing off against a Champion, in the form of Bob Pooler." Vasco Dias: "Speaking of championships, there seems to be some bad blood brewing between Sephiroth and Man of Steel Champion, Mike Laszlo." Terri Morasco: "Indeed, Vasco. Sephiroth Du Lac is on the hunt for gold in IWF... will the Cruiserweight Champion be his latest victim?" {The two combatants settle in their opposing corners and the referee kills for the bell. Pooler cautiously steps towards the center of the ring as Sephiroth moves to meet him. Du Lac goes to lock up, but Pooler ducks under it and gets around behind Sephiroth, hitting him with a kick to the quads. Pooler connects with another kick to the back of the leg, attempting to knot up the leg early on in this match. Du Lac turns and grabs Pooler by the head/hair, pulling him into a Headbutt that causes Pooler to take a step backwards. Du Lac grabs Bob's arm and backs him into the ropes, shooting him off with an Irish Whip. As Pooler rebounds, Du Lac raises his knee for a Knee Lift, but Pooler dodges it and quickly rolls Sephiroth up from behind with a School Boy. 1... Sephiroth kicks out immediately and jets to his feet, grabbing Pooler's arm again and pulling him into a knee strike to the stomach. Sephiroth pushes Pooler into the ring ropes, and connects with a forearm shot to the lower back and kidneys region as Pooler bounces off. He repeats this move another time before lifting Bob up for a Belly-to-Back Suplex. The quicker Pooler, however, flips over the back and lands on his feet. When Du Lac turns around, Pooler catches him with a European Uppercut that backs him into the ropes, Pooler hits the ropes and charges in, but Sephiroth ducks his shoulder and sends Pooler over the top and onto the apron.}Vasco Dias: "Pooler just went Lincoln Hawk... I'm talking Over the Top." {Sephiroth turns to face Pooler, but is grabbed and pulled throat-first across the top rope. Du Lac steps back, holding the affected area, allowing Pooler to springboard to the top rope and leap off with a Springboard Front Dropkick. Both men are up quickly, and Pooler strikes first with a European Uppercut that catches Sephiroth under the chin. Another Uppercut stuns the bigger man, creating enough seperation for Pooler to get a running start and leap up for a Jumping Enzuguiri.... but Sephiroth ducks his head and Pooler hits the mat. Sephiroth guides Pooler to his feet and quickly connects with a Snap Suplex, floating over with grace and mounting the opponent. Sephiroth rains down mounted punches on the face of the Cruiserweight Champion as he attempts to cover up. The referee comes over and forces Du Lac to stop his attack, but Sephiroth gets to his feet and plants a boot to the side of Pooler's face for good measure. Sephiroth stands over his opponent and briefly taunts before dropping the elbow with The Stake Through the Heart. Du Lac goes for a half-hearted pin. 1.... 2. Pooler kicks out quickly.}Terri Morasco: "Sephiroth has such a calculated and methodical offense crafted over years and years of training. He slows the match down and forces his opponent to wrestle up to him." Vasco Dias: "He controls the pace, which doesn't set well with someone like the high-flying Cruiserweight Champion." Terri Morasca: "This is a man who knows what he's doing in the ring." {Du Lac pulls Pooler from the mat and lifts him briefly into a Bearhug, squeezing the ribs of Pooler before turning it into a Side Belly-to-Belly Suplex. Sephiroth goes back to the ring ropes and comes off slowly, jumping and connecting with a Leg Drop across the neck of the champion and going for another pin. 1.... 2.. Pooler kicks out. The vampire superstar gets to his knees and looms over the body of his opponent before taking his hand and placing it on the throat of Pooler, choking him. The referee forces the break, but Du Lac immediately goes back to the choke, and gets a verbal warning from the referee. Du Lac glares at the man in the striped-shirt before grabbing Pooler by the head and to a vertical base. Pooler pushes Sephiroth back a step and leaps into the air, hitting the sudden Enzuguiri he missed earlier! Du Lac is out on his feet, allowing Pooler to hit the ropes and nail the High Velocity Hug!}Terri Morasco: "Pooler with the signature Spear! What a collision!" {Pooler crawls on top for the pinfall. 1.... 2.. Sephiroth gets his shoulder off of the mat and breaks the pin. Bob pushes up to his feet and waits as Sephiroth gets to his knees... striking him in the chest with a kick... and another kick... and another. Pooler goes for a fourth kick, but as he does, Sephiroth catches him whilst rising to his feet, lifting Pooler into Powerbomb position! Pooler counters it into a Hurricanrana! Sephiroth rolls through to his feet and wildly charges Pooler who scoops him up onto his shoulders and plants two knees into his gut with the Fireman's Carry Gutbuster! Pooler rolls Du Lac onto his back for the pin. 1.... 2... Sephiroth kicks out!}Vasco Dias: "Pooler has completely turned the tide of this match. He's sticking and moving, keeping Sephiroth off-balance at every step." Terri Morasco: "That's what he has to do if he wants to win this match. He can't match Sephiroth in power, so he has to make it up with speed and guile." {Pooler gets to his feet and takes a few steps back, watching intently as Sephiroth struggles to a vertical base. As Seph gets up, Pooler jumps forward and goes for Pepto-Bismol! But du Lac catches him and throws him backward. Pooler lands on his feet and looks for the surprise Dr. Teeth Superkick, but Sephiroth ducks it and goes behind, grabbing Pooler and sending him flying with the Release German Suplex. Bob crashes to the mat and the momentum sends him to his feet... right where Sephiroth drills him with a Superkick of his own. Pooler falls back into the ropes and uses them to keep himself standing, but he's clearly feeling the effects of that kick. Sephiroth approaches and pulls Bob's upper body through the ropes and then pulls it forward so he's trapped in the ropes. Du Lac fires off a series of stiff clinch knees, taking full advantage of the referee's five count.}{Sephiroth drags Pooler out of the ring ropes and to the center of the ring, where he drops the Cruiserweight with a Back Suplex Driver. The vampire wastes little time grabbing Bob Pooler's legs and turning him into position... locking on the Avalon Salute! You can see the agony in Pooler's face as the pain shoots through his body while his back is tortured by the opponent. Pooler reaches out for the ropes, trying desperately to pull the body weight of himself and Sephiroth to the safety of the cables. Pooler nearly reaches the bottom rope... just when Sephiroth pulls him back to the center of the ring. As Sephiroth tries to reapply the move, he bends down, allowing Pooler to reach up and grab him... pulling du Lac into an Inside Cradle! 1.... 2.... Sephiroth breaks free of the pin!}Terri Morasco: "Pooler nearly pulled the win out of nowhere!" Vasco Dias: "Nearly.... Terri. Almost doesn't count." Terri Morasco: "A few more moments in that punishing submission hold, and this match would have almost certainly been over." {Du Lac is up first, catching Pooler with a boot to the gut as he reaches a vertical base, and then pulling the Cruiserweight Champion in for a Piledriver.... but Bob blocks it with a Big Back Body Drop. Du Lac is up, but has no time to react before Pooler sticks his shoulder into Sephiroth's sternum; driving him into the corner turnbuckles. Pooler drives another Shoulder Block into the solarplexus before taking a step back and running in for the Monkey Flip. Sephiroth catches Pooler and spins, lifting and placing him on the top turnbuckle. The 'Fallen One', connects with a big Palm Strike to the jaw that stuns Pooler, allowing the heavyweight to climb to the second turnbuckle and position Bob for the Superplex. Seph hooks the head and looks to send both men flying, but Pooler hooks the top rope with both hands to keep himself firmly planted on the turnbuckle. Sephiroth tries to break Pooler's grip on the rope, leaving himself open for a well-placed kick to the chest that knocks du Lac to the mat. Bob steps down to the second rope and spins du Lac around, climbing up onto his shoulders with a Victory Roll Pin attempt in mind. Pooler tries to roll the move forward, but somehow Sephiroth overpowers him and pulls him back into the seated shoulders position... before drilling him into the mat with the Broken Mask!}Vasco Dias: "That's the Broken Mask! That Electric Chair Drop varitation of one of du Lac's signatures, and I think it spells curtains for Bob Pooler." {Sephiroth drops to the mat and rolls Pooler onto his back whilst hooking the leg. 1..... 2..... Pooler kicks out!}Terri Morasco: "Not just yet! There's still some fight left in the champion!" {Both men struggle to get off of the mat, trying to gain sturdy footing in uncertain circumstances. Pooler throws a left-handed punch that Sephiroth shakes off and counters with a forearm shiver to the cheek. Du Lac pulls Pooler in for a Snap DDT, but Pooler breaks free, grabbing Seph's arm and spinning him around... jumping and stabbing Sephiroth in the back with Pepto - Bismol! Du Lac grabs his back in pain while writhing on the mat and Pooler crawls onto the cover. 1..... 2...... Sephiroth refuses to stay down!}Vasco Dias: "And du Lac staves off defeat as well! Somebody has gotta win this thing!" Terri Morasco: "Easier said than done, my friend." {Pooler is up first, waiting for his opponent to follow suit. When Sephiroth reaches his feet, Pooler grabs him and sets him up for a Uranage, which is well-defended by some pointed stiff elbows to the side of Pooler's dome piece. Du Lac hooks Pooler up for the Black Embrace choke, but before he can lock it in, Pooler falls forward, sending Sephiroth tumbling over his head and to the mat. Du Lac is up relatively quickly, but in his haste, he walks into a boot to the gut that bends him forward... where Pooler sets him up and drives him down with the Shinigami! Pooler strikes when the moment arrives and nails his finisher, rolling Sephiroth onto his back, while the referee dives into position. 1..... 2..... 3!}Alison Valance: "Here is your winner by pinfall...... BOB POOLER!" {Pooler sits up off of the pin and breathes heavily whilst the referee briefly checks on du Lac.}Vasco Dias: "A massive win for our Cruiserweight Champion over one of the toughest competitors in the company. This kid is on quite the roll these days, and I don't see him slowing down any time soon." Terri Morasco: "He had to fight hard to get the win, but he preservered and came out on top. I don't see many flaws in his game." {Bob gets to his feet and his handed his championship title by the referee before having his hand raised in victory. Pooler then walks over to the corner and climbs up, raising the belt in victory.}Terri Morasco: "This match very well could have went either way, but the night belonged to Bob Pooler... and I dare say the future just may very well belong to him as well." Vasco Dias: "I wouldn't bet against him." ---------------------------------------------------------- SEGMENT"Unstoppable Force. Meet Immovable Object."---------------------------------------------------------- {We come back from a commercial break and In this moment's "whore" comes over the PA system and Amber Richards comes through the entrance flanked by her gigantic bodyguard Christine Rochette. Amber holds the Diamonds title up in the air and makes her way down to the ring, she leaps up onto the apron and takes a mic}
Terri Morasco: It seems like our Diamonds champion has something on her mind.
Amber Richards: Before I get into my business and why I have decided to grace you all with my presence even though it is technically my well earned week off, I'd like to congratulate my beautiful, talented, tough, friend and bodyguard...Christine...on winning her debut match this past thursday on IWF's inaugural Battlegrounds.......
{Amber applaudes Christine but the crowd boo's}
Vasco Dias: The crowd doesn't seem very receptive....
Amber Richards: Last week, while in a match with that strange little pixie named Alice Pleasant, the current Ruby Champion, Ana Valentine decided to come down and stick her nose in my business.....she hid under the ring and her little distraction caused me to lose to Alice Pleasant.....
{Amber pauses for a moment and breathes deep letting that sink in}
Amber Richards: So I want to know...Ana....what is going through that head of yours?....
{Personal Jesus hits the speakers and Ana steps out onto the stage, a mic in one hand, she runs a forefinger along her lips, smirking slightly as she looks down towards the ring, watching Amber closely. Amidst the boos a few cheers rise up here and there in the crowd and Ana laughs slightly, shrugging her shoulders.}
Ana: Waahh waahh waahh! Why why why? Seriously, do you come out here just to listen to yourself talk Amber? Because I have news for you, not a single one of these people - who paid GOOD MONEY - for their tickets tonight, could give a flying fuck what you have to say! And do You know why that is...?!
{Ana pauses and over-exaggeratedly cups her ear as if listening for amber's response, but shakes her head slowly, waggling her finger 'no'.}
Ana: Because you're a FRAUD!
{The cheers start up again a little louder this time and Ana looks around at the crowd with a bemused expression on her face, then shrugs.}
Ana: You are not a Goddess.... You are not the top of this division... You Amber, are a coward. And last week, I was calling you out! See, here's a fun fact for all those watching at home... Amber Richards has NEVER pinned Ana Valentine...
{Ana has begun walking down the ramp as she talks, still an arrogant smile on her face, she jumps up onto the apron and stares Amber down, over the ropes.}
Ana: BUT - I have pinned you, haven't I Amber? One on One, when we went toe to toe, I was the one that came out on top and I can... No, I WILL do it again! You want to walk around here acting like the queen of this so-called division?! Then PROVE it, put your money where your cock sucking mouth is and Pony up bitch... Because I am coming for that title around your waist, whether you like it or not....
{Amber shakes her head and mouths back at Amber before giving her a two fingered salute.}
Amber Richards: You have your own title to defend and to hold to a high prestige. Why should I defend my belt against you...I have nothing to gain....and I already held that belt.....
{Amber and Ana get in each others face. Ana slips between the ropes so the two women are standing toe to toe, their noses practically touching as Ana leans in as close as she physically can, with a small, controlled smile.}
Ana: Because when you do - I promise to put you in your favorite position.... Flat on your back!
{The crowd reacts as Simon walks out. The ladies in the ring both follows his footsteps as he grabs a microphone and gets in the ring with them.}
Simon: Ladies. I'm glad to see you both seem to want to get at each other so badly. But Ana, Amber does have a point. You have a title with a list of people wanting to get at it. But, you are the two best women in this company right now....So, it would be foolish of me not to make some money out of this and see you two go at it. Ana, if you give up your Ruby title you can have a shot at Amber...think of it as a cashing in smaller chips for bigger ones for a bigger roll of the dice.....but I'll give you some time to think it over....say, a week?
{Simon smiles and lowers the mic as Amber starts screaming at him pointing at Ana who is grinning}
Terri Morasco: Wow...Ana Valentine could be the next contender for Amber's title!

TAG TEAM MATCH Ragnarok vs Mike Laszlo and Davey Ortega
---------------------------------------------------------- Alison Valance: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall… {"Hard to see" by Five finger death punch hits as Nero and Tank emerge from the back.}Alison Valance: At a total combined weight of 495 pounds, the team of Tank Armod and Nero Blake…RAGNAROOOOOOK!!! {They make their way down to the ring and slide in the ring before going to opposite corners to taunt the crowd who send boos their way.}Alison Valance: And now for their opponents… {"Cult of Personality" by Living Colour hits the sound system as Mike Laszlo walks out onto the stage, the Man of Steel Title draped over his shoulder, to a favored reaction from the crowd. Surveying those who cheer, a smirk comes over his face as he heads for the ring with a slow confident walk, the fans reaching over the rail just to get a touch of him}Alison Valance: Making his way to the ring, from Cleveland, Ohio, weighing 237 pounds; he is the reigning IWF Man of Steel Champion, MIIIIKE LASZLOOOOO! Vasco Dias: The Man of Steel Champion seems ready for action here tonight. Terri Morasco: He’s been on quite a roll as of late, defeating Killian Creed twice, and then fending off Sephiroth Du Lac last week though the latter has become a thorn in his side. {Mike stops at the end of the isle as Ragnarok beg him to enter. He then turns to the stage and points with a grin on his face as Cult of Personality is interrupted by…
''Land of Confusion'' by Disturbed blasting over the speakers as the crowd roars in cheers. Dave Ortega soon slowly walks out with his hands behind his back, and the Imperial Title around his waist, smiling as he walks to the center of the ramp. He throw his arms up in the air to a raucous response. He then begins to walk down the ramp, giving high fives to the people with outstretched hands.}Alison Valance: From Atlantic City, New Jersey, weighing in at 170 pounds; he is the IWF Imperial Champion, DAVEEEEEEY ORTEGA!!! {He walks to the fans ring side, offering some hasty autographs and even a picture before turning back and heading to Mike’s side. The two discuss strategy and immediately drop their belts, making a bolt for the ring. The bell rings as Ragnarok drops down and attacks the two champions.}Terri Morasco: This match has started rather quickly, and the referee has lost all control in this thing already. Vasco Dias: When does the referee not lose control? What the hell do we pay them for? Terri Morasco: Well, in reality, you don’t pay them. Vasco Dias: Whatever woman, you know what I mean. {Ragnarok continues the assault on the champions who start to fight back before everyone starts trading blows with their respective opposite. Laszlo gets the upper hand on Tank as Ortega does the same to Nero, each being backed into opposite corners across the ring. Ortega sends Nero one way and Laszlo sends Armod the other, the two avoid contact with one another, one ducking under while the other jumps over but both continue momentum until they are Back Body Dropped over the turnbuckles and to the floor below as the crowd erupts in approval. The two members of Ragnarok stumble toward each other on the same side of the ring when both Ortega and Laszlo bounce off the ropes and run toward their foes. Ortega lunges over the top rope and Laszlo through the ropes, both diving to the outside and taking their opponents out before popping up to their feet and rolling back into the ring to rile up the crowd as Ragnarok regroups on the outside.}Terri Morasco: This crowd is going crazy for the champions. Vasco Dias: They always do when a spot monkey jumps. Terri Morasco: Would you please get with the new age wrestling already? {The referee finally starts to get control of things forcing Ortega to the outside and only allowing Tank Armod to enter. Laszlo and Tank tie up in the center of the ring and Tank starts to assert his weight advantage, pushing Laszlo back into the ropes, but at the last second, Laszlo switches around and pushes Tank back into the ropes. He tries to shoot him to the other side of the ring but Tank reverses and as Laszlo returns, Tank looks for a Clothesline. Laszlo ducks, bounces off the ropes and comes back lunging in the air, looking for a massive DDT but Tank uses his strength and dumps the Man of Steel Champion over the top rope and to the floor.}Terri Morasco: Great counter by Tank Armod. Vasco Dias: He used his superior strength and held Laszlo in the air just long enough to get him over the top rope. {Laszlo struggles on the outside near Nero as Tank distracts the referee. Nero comes off the apron and hits Laszlo with a Double Axe Handle that brings Davey into the ring which distracts the referee further as Nero rolls Laszlo into the ring where Tank goes for the first cover of the match, but is thwarted at two as Laszlo gets the shoulder up.}Terri Morasco: They nearly stole one on the cheap shot by Nero Blake on the outside. Vasco Dias: It’s only cheating if you get caught by the official. {Tank rolls off the cover and gets to his feet, stomping at the midsection of Laszlo twice before pulling him to his feet by the hair. He lifts Laszlo into a delayed Vertical Suplex before crashing down hard on the mat below. Tank gets up and smiles at the damage as he again grabs hold of Laszlo and locks him into a headlock, dragging him toward the Ragnarok corner and tagging in Nero who comes in as Tank raises the arm of Laszlo. Nero loads up and takes a free shot at Laszlo’s ribs that drops him to his knees in pain. Nero lifts Mike up with brute strength and drops him ribs first across his knee, causing further damage. He gets up and smiles at Ortega who steps through the rope, garnering the attention of the referee again as Nero turns toward Laszlo who is doubled over in pain. Nero goes to capitalize, but with the referee’s back turned, Laszlo sticks his thumb in the eye of Nero!}Vasco Dias: What a low life cheater. Terri Morasco: Turnabout is fair play. After all, you said it isn’t cheating if he doesn’t get caught. {Nero turns away for a moment as Laszlo leaps in the air and plants Blake with the DDT he tried on Tank earlier. Both men are down and are slowly making their way toward their respective corners as Ortega ushers the crowd cheers for Laszlo. Laszlo lunges and makes the tag at the same time Nero tags in Tank. Tank rushes in but Ortega is already on the top rope and lunges off connecting with a huge Missile Dropkick! He runs over to the Ragnarok corner and kicks Nero under the bottom rope and to the floor as he turns his attention back to Tank who is slowly getting to his feet.}Terri Morasco: The Imperial Champion with a ton of momentum here. Vasco Dias: Yeah, show off some more why don’t you. {Ortega charges Tank who tries to stop the momentum with a Clothesline but Davey grabs hold of his arm and twists it into a Spinning Neckbreaker and goes for the cover, only to get a two count. Ortega then points at the top turnbuckle at the urging of the fans who cheer him on as he ascends to the top. He spreads his arms out wide and lunges off with a Swan Dive Headbutt. TANK ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY! Ortega crashes hard against the mat as the biggest man in the match slowly gets to his feet and shakes off the cobwebs. With the champion down, Tank sets up in the corner and waits for Davey to get to his feet. As the champ turns around, Tank levels him with a huge Clothesline that turns him inside out.}Vasco Dias: WAR CRY! WHAT A CLOTHESLINE! Terri Morasco: Indeed. The champ is down, can Armod take advantage? {Rather than going for the cover, Tank stands up to his feet and signals for the beginning of the end. He lifts a groggy Ortega up on his shoulders, looking for the “Over and Under”, but as he turns around with Ortega on his shoulders, he’s met with a Super Kick straight to the face.}Terri Morasco: What a shot to the face. Vasco Dias: That’ll take anybody out for a minute. {Nero comes charging in as Tank falls to the mat, dropping Ortega in the process, and Clotheslines Mike over the top rope before grabbing hold of Tank and dragging him to the corner as he is admonished by the referee. Nero steps out of the ring and grabs the tag rope, tagging himself into the match as Ortega is slow to his feet. Nero grabs him by the head and hits him with the Snapmare Driver and goes for the cover.
1!
2!
Laszlo tries to intervene but is taken out by Tank and another vicious Clothesline.
3!
Nero gets to his feet and the two stand over the Imperial Champion}Alison Valance: Here are your winners, the team of Nero Blake and Tank Armod, RAGNAROK! { The celebration is short lived as just as they have their arms raised they find themselves on the mat being assaulted by the Brothers Black who just hoped over the ring barriers and used their belts like weapons! } Vasco Dias: It's the tag team champions! Terri Morasco: I guess they didn't take to kindly to all the trash talk that's been flying around. Vasco Dias: Or the match last week. { The brothers stomp away at Nero and Tank who try to get to their feet as Bob Pooler and Killian Creed come running out from the back, the Brothers quickly bail on the ring as the crowd pops huge for them. } Vasco Dias: Looks like they got their message across tonight. { The brothers hop into the crowd with their belts held high, Nero and Tank getting to their feet looking pissed. }----------------------------------------------------------
MAIN EVENT EXTREME RULES MATCH Jake "The Ace" Conway vs Roberto Verona w/ Angel as Special Guest Referee
---------------------------------------------------------- { The somber tones of "Sail" by DevilDriver hit the PA as the arena is plunged into darkness. An "X" burning in black and white tones is displayed on the screen as a lone spot light appears on the stage just as the song starts to kick into gear, Angel stands there with his back to the crowd, his arms out in the mock Christ pose. Angel turns to face the crowd and they erupt into a chorus of boos as he sneers and heads to the ring in step with the song. Angel walks up the steps and quickly climbs up the ropes on the outside, he throws out his arms and tosses his coat to the side as he stands on the top rope, arms out stretched and the arena is blinded in light. Angel jumps down and waits for the match to start as the music comes to an stop. }Vasco Dias: I’m not going to sit here and pretend this is a real match because it isn’t, Angel and Simon are feeding Ace to the wolves. Terri Morasco: Wolf. Vasco Dias: Whatever. If Roberto wrestles to his full potential he will take an already wounded Jake Conway and put him out indefinitely and if Roberto doesn’t, Jake will. Terri Morasco: It’s a sick twisted game. { The lights in the arena start to flash red, green, yellow and purple in rotation with the opening guitar and drums. As the lyrics to 'You Know My Name' by Chris Cornell kick in, the circular platform that The Ace is stood upon with his back towards us, the platform is decorated to look like a roulette wheel. Slowly it spins a full one-eighty degrees and as the chorus is reached and we see The Ace facing us, and cards begin to fall from the rafters. The Ace waits a moment before stepping off the platform and grasping the hand of Kathleen Conway, who is carrying her husband's steel rake in one hand and the couple proudly walk through the shower of falling cards, hand in hand. At the foot of the ramp, the cards stop falling as the couple share a kiss. The Ace then confidently struts over to the steel steps as Kathy remains at ringside, armed. The Ace climbs the steel steps towards the ropes and steps through them. He walks over to the adjacent turnbuckle, unhooking his title belt and climbing the second rope. He raises both arms in the air. The Ace then climbs down and he walks to the middle of the ring, the lights return to normal... }Terri Morasco: Jake is in a tough position here, on the one hand he’s being promised the world, on the other hand Roberto gave him the world once already. He’s between the proverbial rock and a hard place. Vasco Dias: That he is but Ace is also one of the most devious men to ever enter a ring and I can’t see him hesitating to pull the trigger. { The lights in the arena all go out at "King of the World" by Porcelain and the Tramps begins to blare out of the PA system. Spotlights begin to scan the crowd before fixating on a figure at the top of the stage which is revealed to be Roberto Verona, his head bowed towards the floor. As cheers being to resonate around the arena Verona raises his head and he begins a slow methodical march down the ramp, the spotlight following him as golden pyro rains down from above on the stage. Verona stares with disgust at the crowd who cheer him as he approaches the ring, but he doesn't react to them. As he reaches the steps he slowly ascends them before walking towards the middle of the ring apron, turning around to look into the crowd one last time before looking up and closing his eyes as he stretches his arms out wide and basks in the adulation. After indulging himself Verona climbs into the ring, psyching himself up as he awaits the beginning of the match. }Vasco Dias: You can see the weariness in Roberto’s eyes, this war is taking it’s toll on him. Terri Morasco: Angel loves mind games and that’s all Roberto has been dealing with for weeks now. { Roberto and Ace are on opposing sides of the ring, Angel smirking in between them as he calls for the bell. }Vasco Dias: Here we go. { The two men circle each other for a moment before the Ace smirks and moves in for a tie up, Roberto tries to fight against it but the Ace is much stronger and presses Roberto into the corner. Ace presses even harder and starts to push Roberto’s arms out to the sides, Roberto slams his face into the Ace’s and as Ace stumbles back he explodes out of the corner with a clothes line! }Vasco Dias: The Ace used his size advantage there but Roberto is pretty slick. Terri Morasco: That he is. { Roberto looks to Angel who just watches from afar as the Ace gets up. Roberto grabs him with a side head lock but the Ace throws his hips and picks Roberto up for a German suplex. Both men come back around to their feet quickly and Roberto throws a right hand that the Ace gets under and behind Roberto and puts him in a rear chin lock. Roberto fights hard as the Ace squeezes. Roberto manages to break free after a few stiff elbow shots to the ribs and gets behind Ace and looks for a rear waist lock take down, the Ace blocks it and elbows Roberto right in the face. Ace whips around and lays Roberto out with a big clothes line. }Vasco Dias: Nice counter from the Ace. Terri Morasco: These two know each other so well it’s ridiculous. { Ace doesn’t relent as he comes at Roberto with several hard stomps to the chest. On the third stomp Roberto grabs the Ace by the foot and twists him down onto his stomach, Roberto throws him in an ankle lock and twists hard! }Terri Morasco: Roberto with an ankle lock! Vasco Dias: He’s got Ace by his bad leg! { Roberto twists even harder as Angel just watches, slowly making his way over before he finally pushes Roberto off of Ace and claims he had the ropes. }Terri Morasco: There’s no rope break in an extreme rules match? Vasco Dias: That seems to be up to the referee, Angel. { Roberto doesn’t look very happy that Angel touched him but he ignores it as he walks back over the Ace who is using the ropes to stand. Roberto grabs for the Ace but Ace counters with an arm drag, Roberto pops right back up but Ace pulls him for a side head lock take down, Ace repositions and locks him into an armbar! }Terri Morasco: The Ace is going for a submission! Vasco Dias: Roberto walked into that one. { Ace wrenches back and Angel is right on Roberto asking him over and over and over if he submits, his hand ready to signal the bell ringer but Roberto struggles and manages to twist himself on top of the Ace for a pin fall? Angel sneers and rips Roberto off of the Ace! }Vasco Dias: Come on! { Roberto is right up and in Angel’s face but the Ace pulls him down into a school boy pin and Angel is right there 1. 2. KICK OUT! }Terri Morasco: A fast count from Angel. { Roberto is up and so is the Ace and Angel shoves Roberto into the Ace who grabs him for a over head belly to belly suplex and sends Roberto over the top rope and to the outside! Roberto lands hard on the padded floor and lets out a yell as Angel just grins. }Vasco Dias: JESUS! Terri Morasco: The Ace is softening Roberto up for his big match against Angel, Pooler and Gjenrei in a few short weeks. Vasco Dias: I’m sure Angel wouldn’t shed a tear if Roberto didn’t make it. { The Ace quickly climbs out of the ring and pulls Roberto up to his feet, he mouths something off before he sends Roberto flying into the steel steps so hard that they come apart and he lays among the rubble. Angel hops out and points Ace to the apron, Ace throws up the apron and looks underneath, he slides out a table and a chair. Ace picks up the table and carries it back a few steps and lays it across the ring apron to the ring barrier like a bridge, then he grabs the chair. }Vasco Dias: Dammit, don’t do it! { Roberto struggles to stand as Ace comes right at him and cracks the chair hard over his back! Roberto drops to his knees and Angel yells that Ace hit him again, “DO IT FOR KATHY!” he screams as the Ace takes a baseball swing for Roberto and cracks him upside the head! }Terri Morasco: The Ace could of just given Roberto a damn concussion! Vasco Dias: Every week that son of a bitch sinks to a new low. { Ace takes Roberto’s arm and places it on the lower half of the steel steps, he then raises the chair up and prepares to bring it crashing down but Roberto kicks up his leg and sends the chair into the jaw of the Ace! Roberto is up and he jumps into the air and brings the Ace crashing down head first into the lower half of the steps with the Brainwasher DDT! }Vasco Dias: BRAINWASHER! Terri Morasco: Don’t ever count the COO out. { Roberto looks like he caused himself a bit of pain but he works his way to his feet and goes to head back into the ring, glaring at Angel as he passes. The Ace is slow to stand but he gets there. Angel points under the ring apron and the Ace grins as he finds… THE RAKE!!! He also finds a ladder. }Vasco Dias: Why don’t they just make this a handi cap match? Terri Morasco: Angel is probably too afraid to step back in the ring with Roberto. { Angel and the Ace go to slide the ladder in but Roberto comes off the ropes and baseball slides it into the both of them. Roberto then gets up and grabs the ropes and as the two of them stand up he sling shots himself to the outside with a cross body! }Terri Morasco: Did Roberto just fly!? Vasco Dias: That he did, he’s a man of many talents! { Roberto is up and the fans are behind him 100% Roberto grabs the rake and the pop even louder as he uses it to pull the Ace up by the neck and chokes him with it. Roberto pushes the Ace forward into the ring apron and as he turns he takes a face full of rake! Jake lets out a yell as Roberto then drags the rake down the back of the Ace! Roberto then drives the ball of the handle into the head of the Ace! }Terri Morasco: Roberto is using Ace’s signature weapon against him! Vasco Dias: Incredibly ironic. { Roberto swings again but Angel rips the rake out of his hands, Roberto whips around and pushes Angel hard, so hard that Angel falls back onto his Ace. Roberto yells for Angel to “BRING IT!” But he doesn’t see Ace grab him from behind for a dragon sleeper ddt right into the ring apron! }Vasco Dias: JESUS! { Ace smirks at his handy work as he gets back up to his feet. He grabs Roberto by the hair and throws him into the ring. Ace grabs another steel chair and rolls in as well, Angel behind him. He stalks the downed Roberto for several second before bringing the chair high up over head and down across the chest of Roberto once, twice and three times! Ace then turns the chair with the tip pointed down and drives it into the throat of Verona and chokes him! }Terri Morasco: The Ace is getting down right vicious. Vasco Dias: He doesn’t have a choice… { Ace pulls the chair back and cracks him in the ribs once again before tossing it aside. He spots the ladder from earlier and picks it up and lays it in the corner. Roberto is staggering to his feet and takes a wild swing at the Ace who pulls him in for the Russian Roulette right into the ladder! }Vasco Dias: Insult to injury there. { Ace stands the ladder up and signals it’s time for the end as he points to the table still set up like a bridge on the outside. He stands Roberto up and starts to climb the ladder, pulling Roberto by the hair beneath him. Angel watches with baited breath as the Ace now sits on top of the ladder and has Roberto in his clutches beneath him. He begins to pull Roberto up and it looks like he’s setting him up for a power bomb. }Vasco Dias: He can’t really be thinking about doing this. Terri Morasco: He absolutely is. Vasco Dias: This is nuts. { Ace looks to pull him up but Roberto rakes the Ace’s eyes! Roberto drops down a rung and then launches himself up with a European upper cut that almost sends the Ace off the top of the ladder. The ladder sways a little as Roberto climbs up another rung and pushes the Ace nearly off but he manages to get his feet around to the other side. Roberto throws a right hand, the Ace counter and throws a left, Roberto counters and throws a left. A war of fists starts as the two of them just lay into each other on top of the ladder. }Terri Morasco: This isn’t going to end well… Vasco Dias: For anyone… { Roberto starts to get the upper hand on the Ace and one massive right hand almost sends the Ace flying off the ladder but he manages to hold on. Robert grabs him by the head and slams his face into the top of the ladder, Roberto steps up another rung and looks to set up the Requiescat in Peace but ANGEL SHOVES THE LADDER OVER!!!! }Vasco Dias: OH MY GOD!!! { Roberto just manages to push himself off and falls back into the ring but the Ace went over the top rope and crashed back first through the table on the arena floor!!! }Terri Morasco: My god… Vasco Dias: Roberto just managed to get to safety but the Ace definitely took the brunt of that. Terri Morasco: He could be even more hurt than when he stepped into the ring. Vasco Dias: Angel shoved that ladder over but… But what was Roberto going to do before Angel pushed it? { Roberto looks stunned as he gets to his feet, almost remorseful but he doesn’t have time to really dwell on it as Angel brings the chair crashing against the back of Verona!!! }Vasco Dias: Of course! { Verona drops down to his knees as Angel rears back with the chair again but before he can get another swing off “I WANNA ROCK!” }Vasco Dias: What the!? { The crowd pops huge as Gib steps out from behind the curtain. }Terri Morasco: It’s Gib! Vasco Dias: As we saw this past week on Battleground, Gib has entered the war against the Empire, I guess by extension that means Simon and Angel too! { Gib saunters down to the ring at full speed as Angel looks from side to side before he bails! }Terri Morasco: He’s running! Vasco Dias: It looks like. { Angel smirks, he’s gotten his point across as Gib helps Roberto to his feet. }Vasco Dias: It looks like Roberto has his first ally in the war against Simon and his Elite. Terri Morasco: The first of many I’m sure, but I wonder who else Gib brings to the war? { Gib forces Roberto to fist pump which is very painful for him as Angel slowly backs up the ramp… }
