Wow lol what a blast from the past. Few notes:
- I can’t believe the one time I try a new character “Damien Blood” I don’t even change my entrance music. Powerman 5000…..again. Lol
- Julian MagneZ sighting!
- Sery vs Inferno with the ring “ceasing to exist” LOL I remember people review and just saying how ridiculous that was. Only in 4CW lol
- The introduction of 4FFLICTION, my 4CW character had just been Mad Dog up to this point. I believe it was Strung who ran it as he veered away from wrestling and more into UFC. Asked me to join and give myself a human name. This Jack “Mad Dog” Valentine was born. “Needs work” lol results of his shows were based on our predictions of UFC events. Strung ran the table against the rest of us.
- Some old school names in there, obviously Rhys, Sery, Bonham, Scharff all mentioned. Older names like Cocozo, Inferno, Willy Twist, No Class Bobby Pinash.
This was fun, I look forward to more!

The Full Card
The camera shows a small tunnel. It's pitch black, and there is a tiny white light at the end. It's so small, it's barely visible. Then the camera moves towards it, and the small light gets a little bigger and a little bigger until it fills the whole screen.
"Alive" by POD all of a sudden blasts into the video, and the camera zooms through the city, which is discovered to be Toronto, and right into the Rogers Centre.

One final shot of a stare down between Cocozo and Clyde Bonham ends the video package.
The camera pans around the arena, packed to the rim with thousands of fans! The stage holds a huge "ReVIval" logo, with the titantron wedged in the V and the curtain in between the V and the I. Then, pyro explodes from all angles, tons of it, left right and centre, red, white, blue, yellow, green, gold and silver. After the pyrotechnic display, the smoke clears and the camera switches to the commentators.
Roberts: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the biggest wrestling event of the year! THIS - IS - REVIVAL! And tonight, we have one of the biggest cards - EVER! Tonight, Cocozo, our World Champion, will put it all on the line against the number one contender Clyde Bonham!
Jeffrey: Number One Contender and NEXT 4CW World Champion! Mark my words on that one! But that's not all we have tonight, we have a ton of other matches but to kick us off is the finals of the 4CW Tag Team Tournament!
Loveless: This is the final match of the 4CW Tag Team Tournament and it is scheduled for one fall, and the winner of this match will be the NEW 4CW Tag Team Champions. Now, introducing first, at a combined weight of 581 pounds from Outer Space and Murray, New York, Retro Modern and Universal Invader, Cosmic Collision!!
”Star Wars (Main Theme)” by John Williams begins to play as the duo come out making title signs at their waist while laser like lights shine around them. Modern goes in and climbs the turnbuckle and his mask and gloves light up. He jumps off as Invader slides in and Invader stands up and raises his fist to the sky as they await their opponents.
Loveless: And their opponents, at a combined weight of 464 pounds from Augusta, Georgia, and Columbus, Ohio, Jacob “The Thunderbolt” Scharff and JJ Blaze!!
Lightning bolt pyro strikes the stage and “His World” by Crush 40 begins to play as Jacob comes out and heads to the left of the stage. Jacob’s music fades out as he raises his right hand into the air.
I’m already dead
BEEP
I’m already dead
BEEP
I’m already dead
“Real Solution #9” by White Zombie begins to play as JJ runs out and heads to the right. Blaze throws both of his fists into the air as Jacob uses chops to draw his signature lightning bolt in the air and as he finishes pyro explodes in the open space between the two men. They then walk to the ring. As they slide in, they climb the two nearby corners and repeat their actions from the stage. The two teams discuss strategy and Jacob and Invader head to the apron meaning the two smaller men, Blaze and Modern, will start this match.
Modern moves in to lock up with Blaze but Blaze ducks under him and hits a swift kick to the back of his right leg. Modern comes after Blaze again, but once again Blaze’s speed allows him to get out of the way and kick at Modern’s right leg. Modern tries for a third time and once again Blaze ducks him, but this time Modern is ready and he catches Blaze with a huge lariat as he comes up. Modern hauls Blaze up and places him in his corner and tags in Invader. Invader comes in as Modern holds Blaze in the corner and hits Blaze with a big forearm right in his face. He then pulls Blaze out of the corner and right into a huge clothesline. Invader keeps hold of Blaze’s arm though and pulls him up and hits him with another huge clothesline. He still keeps hold of Blaze’s arm but this time he pulls him up and into a big bearhug. Blaze wriggles to get free but it’s no use and we see that Invader’s crushing grip is starting to really affect Blaze. Blaze manages to take a moment though and collect himself long enough for him to box the ears of Invader, who almost drops him, but doesn’t and then turns the bearhug into a huge belly-to-belly suplex! Invader with the cover!

Blaze starts crawling towards his corner as Modern moves towards the much closer Invader and when Blaze is about halfway to his destination Modern makes the tag to Invader! Invader runs in and grabs one of Blaze’s ankles and pulls him up so he still has ankle and Blaze is on one foot, but Blaze takes advantage and connects with an enzuigiri! Invader is stunned! Blaze to his corner! Tags in Jacob! Jacob rushes in and connects with a huge big boot to Invader’s skull! Invader goes down! Jacob hits Modern with a boot too sending him to the floor!

Invader runs in and goes for a clothesline, but Jacob ducks under it and plants Invader with the Edge O’Matic that he calls The Pulse! Blaze suddenly calls Jacob though and we see that he has Modern down in the corner and he tells Jacob to hold him down. Jacob agrees and Blaze heads to the opposite corner!! What is he doing? Coast to Coast!! Blaze connects with the Coast to Coast from the opposite corner of the ring and Modern rolls out to the floor clutching his gut! Blaze staggers to his feet, but all the action has given Invader a chance to recover and he uses it to jump on the middle rope and hit Blaze with a huge flying shoulder block that takes him down!

Loveless: Here are your winners and NEW Tag Team Champions…Cosmic Collision!!
Modern crawls back in as Invader is handed his half of the titles. Modern sits up and is given his half and the two men raise them into the air as Star Wars music plays.
Loveless: Our next match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, hailing from New York, New York. And weighing in at 230 pounds! Fabian Miiiiiiiiles!!!!!
"Welcome Home" by Coheed and Cambria hits and Miles comes out slowly walking down to the ring with no pyro's and a slight fade with a light gold lighting similar to Evolutions. While walking to the ring he trips coming down the ramp. Once in the ring, he walks over to the turnbuckle and hugs and then gets to the second rope where he lifts his arms up in a relief and victorious pose.
Loveless: And his opponent. Hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. And weighing in at 225 pounds. Damien Blooooooooood!!!!!!!!
“Supernova Goes Pop” by Powerman 5000 hits and Damien Blood appears from behind the curtain and jumps in the air pulling his feet up and slamming them down, while flinging his arms out, Goldberg like. As soon as his feet hit the ramp, fireworks explode in the background. Blood makes his way down to the ring eyes locked on Miles. He takes his time climbing the stairs and slowly gets into the ring. He stands on the turnbuckle and holds his hands up high. The crowd cheers and Blood hops down and faces Miles.
Roberts: Blood has been at odds with Miles ever since he entered 4CW. Will the feud finally come to an end tonight?
Jeffrey: After Blood’s actions last week, I wouldn’t be surprised if Miles cracks his skull wide open.
The two men circle each other and then lock up in the middle of the ring. Miles quickly puts Blood in a headlock. Blood waste no time in elbowing Miles and leans him into the ropes and whips him away. Blood can’t set himself in time and Miles shoulder blocks Blood knocking him down. Miles jumps on Blood and starts throwing left and rights. Blood manages to roll away and when Miles goes for another attack, he is met with a kick to the gut, causing him to keel over. Blood, while still on the ground, throws a right to Miles’ face and drops him. Both men scramble to separate corners and get to their feet.
Roberts: And we’re back to square one.
The two men come out of their corners again and lock up. This time Blood takes control by kicking Miles in the gut. He then starts throwing heavy rights to his head. He backs him up against the ropes and whips him. Miles returns and is met with a dropkick. Blood makes the cover.
1...2...Kickout!
Jeffrey: Way to early! This is Revival, I mean you don’t think we’d have a quick match like that, do you?
Blood picks up Miles and kicks him in the stomach. Then sets up for a piledriver. Miles fights it and quickly gets away. Blood tries to quickly get Miles, but is met with a couple of punches to the gut. Miles stands up and hit’s a quick DDT. Blood’s head nails the mat. Miles quickly hit’s a leg drop on Blood’s head. Miles grabs Blood’s leg and attempts to lock in the figure four, but Blood kicks him in his rear sending him flying into the turnbuckle and nailing his shoulder against the pole. Blood gets up as Miles stumbles back out. Blood grabs Miles from behind and jumps back for a german suplex. Miles hit’s the canvas hard, but Blood isn’t finished. He doesn’t release the hold and forces Miles back up for a second suplex and then finally a third. He holds it for the pin.
1...2...Kickout!
Blood upset with the pin count goes and complains to the referee. Giving Miles enough time to pull himself up on the ropes. Blood turns back to Miles and quickly tries to knock him back down with a haymaker. Miles ducks and gets behind Blood. He then grabs Blood and hit’s a nice Russian leg sweep. Miles then grabs the left arm of Blood and quickly attempts an armbar. Blood fights it. Blood starts to stand up and almost out of the hold. Miles, thinking quickly, kicks Blood right in the kisser dropping him back down and allowing him to lock in the armbar. Blood yells out in pain and reaches for the ropes, but their just out of reach. Miles wrenches the arm back. The referee slides in and continuously ask Blood if he’ll tap. Blood refuses.
Roberts: Blood is in deep trouble. That arm could break at any moment, if he’s not careful.
Blood reaches out for the ropes, but can’t get any closer. Miles shows no signs of letting go of the hold. Blood in a desperate attempt to get out of the hold, quickly jumps to his feet, but Miles still has the hold locked in. Blood falls to his knee. He raises his hand as to tap out, but instead grabs Miles and lifts him up and spins, nailing a half ass sit-down power bomb. Miles finally releases the hold. Blood rolls out the ring holding his arm. He leans against the security wall. Miles gets up and sees Blood holding his arm. Miles runs against the ropes and then propels himself up over the top rope at Blood, but Blood sees him and dives out of the way. Miles nails the security barricade with his head and shoulder. Miles grabs his head in pain. Blood takes a couple more seconds to recover before heading over to Miles. His left arm drupes on his side. Blood gets Miles up and whips him into the ring post. Miles smacks his head against the pole and stumbles backward where Blood meets him with a vicious clothesline.
Roberts: Blood is in the driver’s seat now. Miles really didn’t do himself any favors on his last move.
Jeffrey: He damn near killed himself. Now he’s taking a whoopin’!
Blood gets Miles to his feet and bends to grab his waist. He then runs him backward into the security barricade. Then a second time and a third. Miles falls to his knees. Blood takes a step back and then field-goal-kicks Miles in the back of the head. A loud “smack” noise echoes throughout the arena. Miles falls flat on his face. Blood rolls Miles into the ring. Blood body slams Miles in the middle of the ring and then heads to the top rope. He stands on it backwards and jumps in the air flipping for a moonsault. He comes down hard onto nothing as somehow Miles got out of the way. Both men lay in the ring, down.
Jeffrey: Ouch!
Roberts: These high risk maneuvers are just not working tonight for either man.
Both men slowly begin to move and get up. Blood holds his stomach with his right hand as his left still hangs beside him. Miles gets up and looks as if he may have a minor concussion. They meet in the center of the ring as Blood throws the first fist. Miles throws his own. Both men go back and forth with their fist before Miles ducks one and catches Blood from behind and quickly hits a Dragon Suplex. He holds it for the pin.

Kickout!
Roberts: So close!
Miles gets Blood up and kicks him in the stomach and quickly jumps on his head nailing a Fame Asser! Miles heads to the turnbuckle and gets on top.
Jeffrey: I dunno if this is a good idea.
Miles attempts a moonsault of his own and nails it perfectly onto Blood. He holds for the pin.

3...Kickout!
Roberts: No!
Blood stays alive by throwing his shoulder up. Miles goes after the referee, bitching about the count. Then he quickly runs to the ropes and jumps at them. Landing on the middle rope and propelling himself back toward Blood for a Lionsault. Blood gets his knees up and Miles connects with those. He flies off of Blood in pain. Blood slowly gets up ahead of Miles. He waits for Miles to get up before kicking him in the gut and setting up for the Final Touch. Miles fights it and breaks free. Miles swings at Blood, but Blood catches it and Miles in a full nelson and then hits a huge full nelson slam. Blood climbs the turnbuckle to the top.
Jeffrey: Do these guys learn anything?
Blood jumps high in the air with an elbow which he nails right into the heart of Miles. He covers him.

3... Kickout!
Roberts: Wow! What resilience!
Blood can’t believe it and picks up Miles. He tosses him into the ropes and bends over. Miles grabs the ropes to stop himself and kicks Blood right in the mouth busting his lips open. We can also see that Miles’ nose has started to bleed. Miles quickly grabs Blood and picks him up for a Miles Drive! Blood escapes the hold and pushes Miles into the turnbuckle face first. Miles stumbles out and Blood picks up Miles for his own Miles Drive. He nails the move and covers Miles.

Kickout!
Roberts: What! Miles kicks out! Unbelievable!
Blood stands up and touches his mouth and looks at the blood. He picks up Miles, who is barely moving. He goes to whip him into the turnbuckle, but Miles somehow reverses it and then quickly follows Blood. Once Blood lands in the turnbuckle, Miles hits a nasty shining wizard to Blood’s face. Cutting his head wide open and dropping him. Miles signals for the end. Barely holding himself up with his own power, he forces Blood to his feet. He goes to kick Blood in the gut, but Blood catches it and grins at Miles. He spins him around and kicks him in the stomach when he returns. He sets up for the Final Touch and nails it. Miles head bounces off the canvas. He hooks the leg.

Loveless: Ladies and Gentleman, the winner of this match via pinfall. Damien Bloooooood!
Roberts: What a great match. I saw a whole new Fabian Miles tonight.
Jeffrey: This could have been any man’s fight and Miles truly gave it all he had.
Blood gets on the turnbuckle, and with blood running down the side of his face and out of his mouth, raises his hands in victory. He gets down and turns around to see Miles standing holding his head. The two men have a stare down. Blood grins and nods his head before leaving the ring. Miles watches Blood leave and the crowd gives him an applause. The referee walks up to see if he’s alright. Miles looks around the arena and grins himself.
Roberts: What’s going on here?
Miles pulls back and cold cocks the official. The crowd cheers quickly turn to boos. Miles starts to laugh with blood running out of his nose and onto his chest now. Miles exits the ring and heads to the time keeper. He grabs him and throws him into the ring post. He drops lifeless.
Roberts: I can’t believe this. What’s wrong with him?
Security guards poor out of the entrance and down the ramp. Miles takes out the first two that get to him with his fist. He grabs the timekeeper’s chair and takes out a third. The others keep their distance. Miles throws the chair at them and makes his escape through the crowd and disappears.
Jeffrey: Wow.
Roberts: I don’t know what that was about, but Fabian Miles just lost it. He seemed crazy or possessed.
Jeffrey: He seemed frustrated, like he’s had enough.
Roberts: What?
Jeffrey: Forget it.
Loveless: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Death Match for the 4CW Custom Cup Championship!
The arena goes black, and a scene of a helicopter in the night sky. Clips of Hollywood rush hour are shown from Aerial view before cutting to a zooming in of a skyscraper building. A spotlight is centred on Lil Wayne as he performs ‘Drop the World’ to a rousing response. The lights are flashing brightly and the crowd is doing a Mexican wave as Wayne raises his left arm and then right. Then the light goes off as Lil Wayne mutters ‘Muthafucker I’m Gone.. I’m Gone’ only for a blinding light to shine on the stage as Eminem and Evans rises from under the ramp, surrounded by flames and golden sparks flowing from the roof of the arena and onto the stage.
Evans, clad in an electric blue hooded sleeveless jacket, walks down the ramp to the words of Eminem, revelling in the boos being showered upon him by the fans. Once in the ring, he walks over to the turnbuckle climbs onto the second rope where he smells the air, before signalling his aim to win the belt. He goes to the opposite corner, smells the air before acknowledging the two megastars performing his theme song. The lights come back on as an excited and pumped up Evans paces the ring.
Jeffrey: The soon-to-be champ has spared no expense... have we ever seen that at Revival?
Roberts: Wow! What an entrance by Rasheed Evans! The man had Eminem and Lil Wayne singing his entrance for him and it truly gives an example of how grand ReVIval is! But fancy entrance or not, Evans still has to have the skill to be able to pin Rhysus or make him tap out to take that championship away from him.
Jeffrey: Something that I know he can do. Are you forgetting that Rhysus lost his first ever match to Rasheed Evans?
Roberts: Of course I'm not; but a lot has changed since then. Rhysus has become the Custom Cup Champion and has held the title since October of last year. He's on a hell of a run and the fact he's undefeated in all of 2010 only solidifies that. Rhysus is gonna be a tough opponent to beat.
Jeffrey: Say what you like about Evans, but he is a tough son of a bitch just like Rhysus. He also has experience in this match as it was at Massacre he took on Rhysus for the title in this very same match, with JJ Blaze also in the match. This time though, it's one-on-one and it's sure as hell personal.
Roberts: You're absolutely right. Folks, this match will be brutal and viewer discretion is definitely advised.
Warm yourself by the fire, son,
And the morning will come soon.
I'll tell you stories of a better time,
In a place that we once knew.
"Prayer of the Refugee'' by Rise Against blasts through the arena. Rhysus comes out onto the stage with both arms in the air, and red pyro shoots up on both sides of him. Rhysus then beats his chest.
Before we packed our bags
And left all this behind us in the dust,
We had a place that we could call home,
And a life no one could touch.
Rhysus goes to each corner of the stage and raise his arms for the crowd, coming to the middle of the stage as "And a life no one could touch" plays... then, the second the chorus kicks in, Rhysus sprints down the ramp and into the ring, running past loads of weapons on the way.
Don't hold me up now,
I can stand my own ground,
I don't need your help now,
You will let me down, down, down!
Sliding into the ring and getting up, Rhysus resorts to running to the turnbuckle, jumping up and looking out to his sea of fans, before beating his chest twice more, coming down from the turnbuckle. He stares down Rasheed Evans, who hasn't moved since Rhysus' music hit.
Jeffrey: You could cut the tension with a knife! And the crowd are certainly on fire for this match!
Loveless: Ladies and gentlemen, introducing first, the challenger, now residing in Birmingham, England, weighing in at 241lbs, RASHEEEEED EVAAAANS!!!
Evans steps forward and raises his arms in the air, looking as serious as ever. Alot is riding on this match.
Loveless: And introducing the current, reigning and defending 4CW Custom Cup Champion! From Swansea, Wales, weighing in 230lbs, he is "THE BRUISER" RHYYYYYYSUUUUS!!!
Rhysus steps forward and raises his Custom Cup Championship into the air. He looks out to his sea of fans and then hands the championship to the referee, who raises it in the air, and then hands it to the time keeper. The referee then reminds both competitors that they can only win by pinfall and submission, and he signals for the bell to be rung!
The champion and the challenger don't move as the bell rings and they continue to stare each other down. Both men are wondering what they shall do as the first move. Rhysus takes a step towards Evans, but Evans drops and rolls out of the ring. The crowd explodes in boos as Evans is already running out of the ring (or so it seems) but Evans actually goes to the ramp and picks up a steel chair, and walks slowly back towards the ring with it. Rhysus stands in the middle of the ring, egging Evans on to get in the ring with the steel chair but Evans is hesitant, knowing Rhysus is ready for it. This goes on for about thirty seconds before Rhysus all of a sudden looks up at the stage, horrified. Evans confused, turns around and looks at the stage, wondering what it was Rhysus was looking at, and while Evans does that, Rhysus dives out of the ring and takes him out from behind!
Roberts: Rule Number One! Never take your eye off the opponent! Evans just learned that the hard way!
Rhysus, now with the advantage, picks up his opponent and Irish whips him into the steel steps, causing them to dislodge. He then picks up the steel chair that Evans dropped and runs at Evans with it. Rhysus strikes down with the steel chair, but Evans moves out of the way and steel clashes with steel. Evans quickly sends a right hand to Rhysus, causing him to drop the steel chair. Evans hits Rhysus with a couple more before the Bruiser delivers a punch or two back. They continue with lefts and rights until Rhysus ducks one of Evans' rights and kicks him in the gut, driving his head into the steel chair with a DDT!
Jeffrey: What a sickening impact with that DDT to the steel chair! This match has only just begun and already havoc is everywhere!
Rhysus picks up Evans and throws him into the ring, before throwing some other objects into the ring with him; two steel chairs, a stop sign, a dustbin lid, and a welsh flag on a pole. Rhysus rolls into the ring and picks up the welsh flag. He waves it in the air to represent his country before putting it under Evans' neck, trying to choke him out with the pole. Evans manages to escape though, and swiftly avoids a shot from the pole. He grabs Rhysus, kicks him in the gut, and lifts him up for a suplex. 1...2...but Rhysus kicks out.
Evans picks up the welsh flag and snaps it in half with his knee, before grabbing half of the pole. Rhysus gets up to his feet only to take a shot with the pole, right across the face. Rhysus stumbles backwards and falls into the turnbuckle, which gives Evans a perfect opportunity to strike. Evans picks up the stop sign and slams Rhysus right across the head with it! The shot causes Rhysus to walk out from the turnbuckle, not having a clue where he is and Evans takes another shot, busting open Rhysus in the process.
Roberts: And the first sign of blood! I don't expect that to stop!
Jeffrey: Did you really just try and pun "stop" and "sign", Roberts?
Roberts: Didn't you like it?
Jeffrey: *sighs* .... just call the damn match.
Evans picks up Rhysus to see a large cut forming on his forehead. Evans screams "This is my time!" before grabbing Rhys from behind and taking him out with a German Suplex. Evans gets up, smirking that he's in control of the match, and climbs the turnbuckle. Rhysus groggily gets to his feet and turns around - and Evans jumps off with a crossbody! But Rhysus catches him and reverses it into a throwaway falling slam! Rhysus gets up, using the ropes to help himself, and wipes some of the blood out of his face, so he can see better. He then rolls to the outside and lifts up the apron, pulling out a small bag, a baseball bat and a roll of barbed wire.
Roberts: Oh boy! This doesn't look too good! Not for Evans, anyway!
Rhysus throws all the weapons in the ring and slides in himself. Evans is getting to his feet so Rhysus grabs him and takes him out with a Sidewalk Slam. Rhysus then grabs the small bag and opens it up, tipping a puddle of broken glass onto the mat! Rhysus then grabs the barbed wire and unravels it, wrapping it around the baseball bat. As Rhysus finishes doing this, Evans is back on his feet and sends a right hand to Rhysus. Rhysus fights back with a left of his own but Evans grabs Rhysus and lifts him for a suplex, slamming him right into the pile of broken glass!
Jeffrey: Holy crap! Rhysus was just slammed into shards of broken glass! Ladies and gentlemen, that glass has just cut into Rhysus' body in about fifty different positions! Talk about pain!
Rhysus sits up to reveal about twenty different slices in his back and the expression in his face shows that it hurt as badly as it looks. Evans though hasn't fully escaped the brunt of the glass as there are two deep cuts on his shoulder where he landed the suplex.
Both men grimace in pain as they get up, shards of glass falling off of them and blood now dripping all over the mat. Evans is first up and he looks to have no mercy and set Rhysus up for another suplex on the glass, but Rhysus wriggles out of Evans' grip and takes him out with an Enziguri! Rhysus then uses the ropes to struggle to get up before picking up the barbed wire covered baseball bat. Evans slowly gets up, and Rhysus uses that time to recover and then he thwacks Evans across the head with the barbed wire bat, busting him open too.
Roberts: Both men are busted open! My god, this is a damn bloodfest!
Jeffrey: Did you expect anything less? It's called a Death Match for a reason!
Evans crumbles, and Rhysus falls to his knees also, and then he falls on Evans. The referee counts this as a cover. 1...2... NO! Evans gets a foot on the rope at the last second! The two warriors lay next to each other on the mat, both wearing crimson masks and in dire agony. There are broken weapons and droplets of blood all over the ring, making it look like someone had been murdered. Rhysus sighs, knowing he can't rest until this match is over, and slowly crawls over to the ropes, helping himself up to his feet.
Rhysus slowly gets to his feet, barely able to balance after the so far gruesome match. He sees that Evans is stirring and grabs him, picking him up. Rhysus sends Evans into the corner and then clotheslines him so that he falls down to the second rope, slouched. Rhysus then goes over to the other side of the ring and picks up a steel chair, wedging it in the corner so that it's directly in front of Evans. Rhysus then goes to the adjacent corner, and climbs up. He takes a deep breath, and jumps off for a Diving Dropkick - straight into the steel chair - crushing Rasheed Evans in the corner! Rhysus then gets up, pulls away Evans, and locks in the Back Snap - right over the Broken Glass!
Jeffrey: This is sick! This is INHUMANE! Evans can't crawl to the ropes because the broken glass is cutting him up! This needs to end, I can barely watch!
Roberts: This truly is horrifying! The glass must be digging into Evans' torso as his body is crushed under the weight of his opponent! Nobody is able to take this kinda pain!
As soon as Roberts finishes his sentence, and to no surprise from anyone really, considering the pain he is in, Evans taps out, slapping his hand over and over on the one part of glass-free mat he can see. Rhysus releases the hold and Evans, broken, bloody and battered, remains limp atop the sea of broken shards.
Loveless: HERE IS YOUR WINNER - AND STIIIIIIILL - THE 4CW CUSTOM CUP CHAMPION - "THE BRUUUUISER" RHYYYYYYSUUUS!!
Jeffrey: Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a great show so far but before the show, a Pre-ReVIval Battle Royal was filmed involving everyone who didn't have a match. Here's what happened...
Roberts: MagneZ was an impressive winner and he has been on a roll lately! One would think he'd be going to big places very soon!
The camera flickers on, as Clyde Bonham is pacing back and forth, his face twisting around from a pleasured smile, back to a puzzled frown, and occasionally to a grimace of anger. He glances towards the direction of the camera, but ultimately pays little mind to it as he continues to pace.
Bonham: I find myself in a place that I have never quite been before. I am on the cusp of instant gratification and being on top of my own little world, yet I am an instrument in harming the weak and generally inept. I mean, Roxy never did truly deserve what happened... then again what the hell was she doing out there?
Bonham stops pacing and turns to the camera.
Bonham: Decisions, decisions, Cu-cu-ka-joo. Decisions are the cast that we place our lives in, allowing the cast to float on, and find its way to whatever waterfall taht it will topple down, our subsequent reaction. You brought her there and she got burned, quite literally. MAYBE IT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED IF SHE WASN'T SUCH A SLUT!
Bonham chuckles, but then regains his composure.
Bonham: As you see... I have become a little fractured due to things, but that will not stop me from stopping you. Your time has come my friend, and I can not be happier to see it be here. You have been heralded as the golden boy for so long, but we all know that CHRIS DRAKE IS THE REAL CHAMP! Nevertheless, you hold the title, and he took his ball and went home. So that makes you the golden boy, and its time for the golden boy to be pissed on with an honorary golden stream.
Bonham grabs the camera and pulls it into his face, a crooked smile filling the lense as the crazed Bonham returns to form nearly instantly.
Bonham: Oh Coco Loco, you don't get it do you? Roxy didn't walk away and neither will you! I plan on making you freeze in that ring. You aren't gonna just fall, but if I have my way I will knock you out! Its hard to retain anything, when you have no ability to even fight? You are pretty unable as it is Coco Puff, so permit me to waltz in and be the new champion. Its about time that 4cw got a little... insane. HAHAHA!
Bonham continues to cackle as he hurls the camera towards the wall behind him like a fastball, and the camera records the fast movement, rushing towards the screen until it goes black, and then to static.
The camera switches back to the arena.
"Walk On" by Neil Young starts up as Fish comes down the ramp and smoke begins to bellow slowly out of the stage entrance and the ramp. He raises his left arm up in the air as he walks down the ramp to the great song, nodding his head...
"Well, I been hearin' people talkin' me down...
Bring up my name, pass it around...
They don't mention, those happy times...
They do their thing, I'll do mine..."
Fish reaches the ring and hops up on the apron leaning on one knee and pushes up before stepping through the top and middle rope and spinning around out of it with both arms up in the air.
"Oh, baby now its hard to change...
Don't you tell me how I feel...
Some get stoned...
Others get strange...
Sooner or later, it all gets real...
WALK ON...walk on...walk on...WALK ON!"
Fish moises over the corner closest to the ramp and stands on the middle rope as he makes an imitation of smoking a joint and drooping his eyes. Fish smiles at the popping crowd for his motion, winks at a fan or two and hops down while turning in one motion as the music begins to die down.
"The Harder They Come" by reggae legend Jimmy Cliff starts up as Firecracker pops out of the curtain, completely energized and smiling from ear to ear. He stays light on his feet and tours both sides of the crowd on his way down, giving high fives to everyone holding their hand out in unison!
Firecracker rolls into the ring while the last verse of the tune kicks in and he tries to mouth along with it the best he can while getting each of the four corners and putting his hands on his hips and nods his head in total satisfaction of all these fans here, going nuts...for him.
"I keep on fighting for the things I want...
'Cause I know that when you're dead, you can't...
I'd rather be a free man in my grave...
Oh!, than livin' like a puppet or a slave...
Oh, and as sure as the sun is shining...
I'm gonna get my share...
..of what's mine...
'Cause you know the harder they come...
the harder they fall...all day long!"
He hops off of the last turnbuckle and runs into the opposite ropes quickly, putting the brakes on as he hits them and uses them to stretch and get ready for his opponent before the bell rings.
Fish stares across the ring at his longtime friend and former Tag Team Championship partner and almost looks undecided about whether he wants to fight him but at the same time looks as if he wants to rip Firecracker’s head off for being so self-centered.
Roberts: A lot must be going through Fish’s head after being dropped by his best friend
Jeffrey: I think Firecracker made a good choice. He was the life of that team. Politics has played a big hand in wrestling since it was created and I think Firecracker realized he was living in Fish’s shadow.
They meet up in the center of the ring as the bell sounds. After a quick tie up, Fish grabs the lead with a front facelock. Firecracker slips out of it and lands a quick right hand. Fish throws one of his own but it’s avoided and Firecracker puts him in a hammerlock. Fish slips behind and uses his size to hit the smaller Firecracker with a back suplex. Not wanting to get grounded, Firecracker pushes himself up quickly but the veteran Fish is there to shove him against the ropes where he drives his knee into his opponents midsection. Off the ropes on an Irish Whip, Firecracker comes back and slides between Fish’s legs, then pops up and hits Fish with a running front dropkick.
Roberts: Speed is the key for Firecracker in winning this match. There is no one in 4CW who can accelerate quite like the Red-Headed Renegade.
Barely able to contain himself, Fish gets to his knees and Firecracker charges at him, hitting an enziguri to the back of the head. Firecracker rolls him over the rest of the way and covers but Fish kicks out.
Jeffrey: Firecracker knows what he must do and that’s keep Fish off guard with a relentless offensive attack.
Roberts: You’re right there. You and I both know that Fish works at his own pace.
Fish sits up from the kick out and Firecracker is right there with a chinlock. The packed ReVIval crowd helps Fish to his feet as he goes for a backbreaker but Firecracker flips out of it and lands on his feet. Firecracker comes right at Fish and he knows this as he sticks his arm out for a running clothesline but Firecracker sees it coming and ducks the blow. Firecracker is off the ropes and Fish hits him with a big time Ocean Floor spinebuster. Not expecting that, Firecracker rolls out of the ring to regroup.
Roberts: Fish hits the Ocean Floor early, he’s not going to mess around here on the big stage.
Jeffrey: I don’t think anyone expected him to. These guys know each other too well to treat this as a regular match.
Fish rolls out of the ring and goes right after Firecracker. Fish blocks a right hand from him and slams his head into the announce table before tossing him back into the ring. Fish whips Firecracker into the corner and follows right behind with a running knee to the stomach against the turnbuckles. Fish drives his leg into the same spot for added effect, then whips Firecracker to the opposite corner but Firecracker runs up the turnbuckles and hits the Whisper in the Wind for a near fall. Unsuccessful, Firecracker goes back to the top rope.
Jeffrey: That’s where Firecracker is going to win this match. He’s out to prove he’s more than Fish’s sidekick.
Roberts: You don’t honestly believe Fish was holding him back do you? It was a mutual agreement for them to team up and Fish never put himself ahead of the team, not once.
Jeffrey: And neither did Firecracker.
Roberts: I never said he did, just that it was his choice to be a part of BUDZ.
Firecracker leaps off for a hurricanrana but Fish catches him on his shoulders. He walks Firecracker to the corner for what we can only assume is The Waterfall but Firecracker dodges the turnbuckle powerbomb with a sunset flip. He’s unable to pull Fish backwards though and Fish lands a right hand to the face. He pulls Firecracker to his feet and hits him with a swinging neckbreaker. Fish goes for his first pinfall of the night but Firecracker gets the shoulder up. Fish feels like the match is going more his way now as he slips a sleeper hold in. Firecracker reaches out for the ropes but his only way out is to hit a jawbreaker and that does the trick. With Fish reeling, Firecracker grabs his dreadlocks and throws him violently into the corner, the back of Fish’s head hitting the turnbuckles as he falls into a slump against the ropes.
Roberts: That was uncalled for!
Fish is trying to shake the cobwebs as Firecracker goes for a Jeff Hardy style dropkick to the chest, using the ropes for momentum but Fish knows this moves like the back of his hand and has just enough time to get out of the way as he slides under the ropes, leaving Firecracker to crash and burn hard. Fish reaches back into the ring, grabbing Firecracker by the legs and pulling him crotch first into the ringpost.
Jeffrey: What was that all about? Disqualify him ref!
Roberts: Did you not see Firecracker use Fish’s dreadlocks to his advantage a second ago?
Jeffrey: That’s different, we’re talking about an object, not someone’s hair.
Firecracker sits up with his mouth wide open. Fish cracks him with a fist to the face, then grabs Firecracker’s leg and snaps it into the ringpost. He’s not finished though as he crosses Firecracker’s legs and falls backwards, using the post as prop to lock in a variation of the Texas Cloverleaf. The referee starts to count and Fish releases the Drowning Effect at four. Firecracker immediately pushes himself out of the corner and rolls around the ring in obvious pain. Fish slides back into the ring and takes a calculated approach to the match, hitting Firecracker with a chop block from behind.
Roberts: That missed dropkick proved to be fatal because now Fish has this match going just the way he wants it.
Jeffrey: You got that right, Firecracker needs his legs if he’s going to stand a fighting chance here tonight.
Fish takes Firecracker down with another chop block, then locks knees with his old partner before falling backwards to the canvas hard. Firecracker sits up with his mouth wide open, the expression on his face telling the story. Lifting him up, Fish grabs his man by the tights and goes for a vertical suplex but Firecracker lands on his feet. His leg buckles and Firecracker falls to a knee and uses his convenient positioning to sneak in a low blow behind the referee’s back.
Roberts: This is turning dirty in a hurry.
Jeffrey: That’s what your mother told me last night.
Firecracker gets back to his feet and takes Fish down with a bulldog. Firecracker keeps on Fish with a snapmare and follows that up with a dropkick to the back of the head. Firecracker kneels down behind Fish and bends his arm behind his neck. Fish pumps his fist, trying to get some crowd support and it doesn’t take long for the fans to back up the longtime fan favorite. Fish battles back to his feet but Firecracker pulls him back to the canvas and locks in the Ring of Fire (Rings of Saturn). Fish tries to escape but realises that his time is up and taps out, giving Firecracker the victory!
Loveless: HERE IS YOUR WINNER - FIRECRACKER!
Jeffrey: The better tag partner won!
Roberts: How can you say that? Fish tried his best out there tonight and certainly, he is just as good as Firecracker!
Jeffrey: So why is Fish the one lying on the ground while Firecracker has his hand raised?
We cut to an ad for Gallows End 2010, and when we return, Loveless introduces us to the next match.
Loveless: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the 4CW UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIP!
The Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash starts, as "No Class" Bobby Pinash makes his way down the aisle. He couldn't stroll any more cocky. Once in the ring, he loses the suit jacket, breaks his sunglasses and tosses them in the crowd. He gets a kick out of the two fans that each get a useless half pair of sunglasses. He rolls into the ring and Loveless announces him.
Loveless: Introducing first, the challenger, from Queens, New York, weighing in at 245lbs, "NO CLASS" BOBBY - PINASH!
Pinash smirks, standing on the spot, staring at the titantron waiting for the champion.
Loveless: And his opponent...
Another female voice interrupts Loveless over the PA
???: Wait a minute! Wait one minute!
Eden appears from behind the curtain and walks out onto center stage. She's wearing an almost see through white evening gown. The crowd hoot and holler upon her return to 4CW.
Jeffrey: Oh my god! It's Eden! She's back! Little Ray is so so happy!
Eden's expensive jewelry sparkles in the lights of the arena. She brushes her golden locks over her shoulder before continuing.
Eden: I'll be doing the introduction for the champ if you don't mind. And Pinash's opponent, fighting out of Greenwich, he is our reigning and defending 4CW Universal Champion! The greatest championship in the Universe...Here he is, stand up and give him the respect he deserves...WILLIAM TWIST...ESQUIRE!!!
*CHING CHING!*
The sound of cash registers and coins clinking are heard and form into the familiar rhythm of Pink Floyd's "Money". A white limo rolls out onto a side stage where Eden walks over and opens the back door. William Twist steps out wearing a pinstripe Armani suit. Eden holds her arm out and escorts him to the ring. She climbs onto the apron and sits on the middle rope holding them open for Twist to enter. He removes his jacket and is ready to begin as Eden exits the ring.
Willy Twist and Bobby Pinash both go closer to the middle of the ring, staring holes through eachother. Twist tries his best to keep a straight face, because in his head being full of class is the only way to beat the classless one. Pinash, though, doesn't care for Twist's stupid-ass tactics and gives him an open hand slap right across the face. Twist stumbles slightly, before looking back at Pinash, and sending a right hand his way. Pinash takes the punch and replies with a huge uppercut, which knocks Twist into the ropes. Pinash takes advantage of the situation, grasping Twist and sending him into the ropes, and on his return, taking him out with a huge clothesline. Pinash picks up Twist and hits a snap suplex, probably one of many to come in this match.
Roberts: And Pinash is dominating the early going.
Pinash continues his offense, sending Twist to the ropes again for another clothesline but Twist ducks and comes back off the ropes on the other side, grabbing Pinash from behind and hitting a bulldog. Eden starts screaming orders from the side of the ring, telling Twist to 'take advantage' and such of the situation. Twist picks up Pinash and locks him in the Chickenwing Submission. Pinash tries to fight out of it but Twist has it locked in tight and he tries to wear out the challenger. Eventually, Pinash manages to squeeze out of the submission and kick Twist in the gut, hitting him with a second snap suplex. Pinash hooks the leg. 1...2...kickout from Twist.
Jeffrey: Twist won't go down that easily! Pinash will have to deal some more damage if he wants to win.
Roberts: Assuming he can beat Twist - don't forget, Pinash hasn't won a match since he's come back.
Pinash begins to stomp Twist repeatedly, dealing as much damage as he can before picking him up and raking his eyes. Twist stumbles away, holding his eyes in pain, and Pinash sneaks behind for a German Suplex. At this point, Eden, sensing the champion is in trouble, jumps on to the apron, and starts bad mouthing Bobby Pinash. Pinash walks up to the woman and several words are heard as he describes her including "bitch" and "ho" until she delivers a huge slap to his face, and quickly jumps off the turnbuckle. The referee, attending to Twist, misses all of this but before Pinash can grab Eden and break her neck, Twist grabs Pinash and rolls him up from behind. 1...2...kickout from Twist!
Jeffrey: Never keep your eyes off the opponent! How often do we say it? You'd think these wrestlers would remember by now.
Eden starts slapping the apron repeatedly, trying to get an applause going for the champion, but the crowd just boo her attempts. Inside the ring, Twist is in control, having locked Pinash into a bow and arrow submission. Twist applies all the pressure he can into the hold, but all Pinash does is shake his head and refuse to quit, so Twist releases the hold, and elbows Pinash right in the top of the head. He then picks up Pinash and lifts him up for a suplex, holds him in the air while he "checks" his "watch", and then slams him down for a stalling suplex.
Twist quickly covers, and the referee counts. 1...2...but Pinash kicks out again. The champion once again gets Pinash to his feet and sends him to the ropes this time. Pinash comes running back and is taken out with a hip toss. Quick cover. 1...2... no! Twist kicks out yet again. Twist grabs Pinash by the arm and climbs the turnbuckle, setting up for the Tightrope. He walks across the rope, ready to hit the move, but Pinash pulls away, causing Twist to fall, the ropes landing right in his precious parts. All class leaves Twist's body as his face turns to one of shock, and then pure agony, as he falls sideways off the ropes and back into the ring. Pinash picks up Twist and hits a belly-to-belly suplex suddenly. Quick cover. 1...2... but no! Twist kicks out yet again. Pinash picks up Twist, looking to put this one away for good, and locks in the Full Nelson!
Roberts: Pinash has the Full Nelson locked in! Maybe it's time for Twist to Sleep with the Fishes!
Eden does her job and jumps on to the apron, and the referee runs over to get her down. After about ten seconds, Pinash releases the hold and throws Twist to the floor. He then moves the referee out of the way, grabs Eden, and stick his tongue down her throat right then and there! After kissing her with no class at all, he throws her down on to the floor. Eden gets up, almost vomiting as she was just kissed by the most classless person to exist on Earth. Pinash on the other hand smirks and winks at her, much to Eden's displeasure as she runs up the ramp.
Pinash turns around to continue his attack on Twist, but once again, Eden's distraction has managed to give Twist the advantage, as Twist is on his feet. Twist grabs Pinash and lifts him on his shoulders and starts spinning him around! He then slams him to the mat for the 9/11 Driver! Twist grabs Pinash and lifts him in the air, setting him up for the D-D-Dat's All Folks! Dominator. As he lifts Pinash over his shoulder, however, Pinash wriggles out and locks in the Full Nelson! With Twist not even expecting it, Pinash manages to lock in the hold good and it's not long after than Twist is on the floor, almost out of it. When the referee decides it might be over, he lifts up Twist's arm. It falls down once. He lifts his arm up again and it drops. He lifts the champion's arm a third time, but as he lets it go, Twist stops it from dropping, ready to fight out of the move.
Pinash has other ideas though, as he lifts Twist and slams his face right on the top turnbuckle! Twist crumbles, his lanky form collapsing on to the floor, and Pinash hooks his leg quickly, counting the pin with head nods as the referee counts 1...2...3!
Loveless: HERE IS YOUR WINNER - AND THE NEEEEEEEW - 4CW UNIVERSAL CHAMPION - "NO CLASS" BOBBY PINAAAAAAAASH!!
Jeffrey: He's done it! The Classless One has beaten Willy Twist!
Roberts: We have a new Universal Champion! And where better for a new champion to be crowned than at ReVIval!
Pinash is handed the championship as Twist rolls out of the ring. Pinash starts screaming at the top of his voice, things like "That's right, I'M THE FUCKING CHAMP!". He climbs the turnbuckle and raises the title into the air, his first win since his return capturing him the Universal Championship.
========
Sarah Loveless stands in the center of the ring; a set up of several wheelchairs surround her.
Roberts: You see the wheelchairs set up, ladies and gentlemen; and you know that can only mean one thing. It's time for Tico's Trash Talk! I wonder what superstar of the past Tico will have today.
Loveless: Ladies and gentlemen... TICO THRAX!!
"Lay Your Hands On Me" by Bon Jovi plays throughout the jam packed Rogers Center; and Tico Thrax wheels himself to ringside, waving to a few fans along the way. When he gets to ringside; several 4CW security guards lift his wheelchair over the top ropes; and he wheels himself to the middle of the ring. A microphone is handed to him.
Jeffrey: Well if he's any smart he'll get a real guest; not like that crying and sobbing Cocozo last week.
Thrax: Thank you! And welcome to Tico's Trash Talk! [he scratches his head] My guest today, on this very special occasion, is one of the most controversial figures in 4CW history. He is a legend; but he is a legend in another sport; and, even though he had monumental success here; his thoughts on professional wrestling leave a lot to be desired. Ladies and gentlemen I give you... the current 4FFLICTION Grand Champion... "4-Real" AARON MCNEIL!!!
"If You Want Blood" by AC/DC begins to blare over the PA as the 4FFLICTION star makes his way to Tico's stage with championship belt in hand.
Thrax: Mr. McNeil, welcome to Tico's Trash Talk! Please, have a seat.
Tico motions with his arm to have a seat on the wheelchair beside him.
McNeil: If it's all the same to you Tico, I think I'd prefer to stand. I don't see myself in one of those things anytime soon if you catch my drift. It's been awhile since I've been here in 4CW besides my occasional visit in the crowd. It's good to be back, if only for tonight.
Thrax: Mr. McNeil; in your very first appearance in 4CW you made it very clear that you think very little of professional wrestling. I believe your exact words were, "professional wrestling is bullshit." unquote. Why do you think professional wrestling is bullshit?
McNeil: And you don't miss a beat, do you Tico? Yeah, I've said that, it was my "gimmick" so to speak, but you know behind every gimmick is some truth. I'll be the first to admit, I loved the star power 4CW brought me, and of course loved the money to go along with it, but let's be frank. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to do what pro wrestlers do.
Thrax: You're entitled to your opinion. Now, on this show I usually ask my guests about who their toughest opponents were. But... here in 4CW you were known for winning matches very quickly. So, did there happen to be any competition here in 4CW that you would say was your toughest; and... as you seem to have more respect for the MMA world then you do professional wrestling; who would be your toughest opponent from there?
McNeil: Wrestlers are not paid by the hour, now are they? And not to sound like an ass, I really don't even remember many of the names I wrestled. I just did my job.
Thrax: But did you? After less than a year; you suddenly disappeared from 4CW. If the competition here was so easy for you; then why did you suddenly vanish? And I must ask; did J.J. Blaze have anything to do with it?
McNeil: Not to expose too much of the business, I was asked to do something that I wasn't willing to do, but that's the business. My heart was never in the game to begin with, my time here passed, I felt it, I knew it was time to go. We'll just leave it at that. I am technically still employed by The 4w-Network, just the same as you.
Thrax: Allright. Tell us a bit about 4FFLICTION that you are currently competing in.
McNeil: 4FFLICTION is the best risk The 4w-Network ever could have made a bet on. We have the best fighters in the world competing in the company, and all of us contracted fighters are free to compete worldwide in any organization we'd like. The freedom is wonderful. It's the best place to work. Wake up, eat, train, sleep, rinse, repeat, then come fight time, my favorite time, it's all about making suckers bleed. I love it.
Thrax: Would you like to see any 4FFLICTION stars in 4CW? Do you think it's possible for 4FFLICTION to come to an exchange of wrestlers agreement with 4CW General Manager Hugh Knowles? And if yes, who would you like to see here?
Roberts: What an interesting prospect Tico Thrax brings up.
McNeil: Now you're getting somewhere Tico. The offer is there, any time, any place. But let me warn everyone in that locker room...4FFLICTION is not for everyone. Other pro-wrestlers have made the jump, and not with much success. "Mr. Wrestling" Joseph Bennison tried and tucked his tail between his legs running afterwards. Jack "Mad Dog" Valentine is still there too, he's not as soft as Bennison, but needs some work. But like I said, the offer is there. Anyone in 4CW feel ever feel the urge to get their asses handed to them...the offer is there.
Thrax: Is there anything else you would like to say to 4CW?
McNeil: Sure thing Tico. I'd like to leave 4CW tonight with a challenge. This challenge goes to anyone in the locker room. 4FFLICTION will be holding a team based competition of some sort, or so I've heard. If anyone in 4CW has the guts, bring it. So now not only is the offer there...the challenge is set. Bring it, 4CW. Just bring it.
Thrax: Alright, the challenge has been made. But, be careful what you wish for, Mr. McNeil, you just may get it and when it comes to the boys in 4CW, I can almost guarantee it.
McNeil: That's what I was hoping to hear, Tico. Thanks for having me. Thank you everyone!
Thrax: Aaron McNeil ladies and gentleman! We'll be back next week!
A video package shows highlights of the Hall of Fame ceremony that took place two days ago. It shows Chris Drake, Lord Skywolf and Senecca being inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Jenny Loveless appears in the ring above a building near the Rodgers Center. The ring is in what looks exactly like a hell in a cell. But the cell has a hole in the top. There are bleachers set up all around it. A safe distance away from the ring. A timer hangs somewhere in the cell that reads 30:00.
Loveless: The following is an Exploding Ring Death Match. In order to Survive and win the match, you must escape the cell before the 30 minutes is up. If not, anyone who is in the ring will explode!
Inside Out by Eve 6 hits the big speaker systems installed on the top of the roof. Sery is dressed to compete in red trunks. He makes his way to the ring shouting random insults about Inferno. Sery says he's going to tame the Insane One. Sery scouts the cage and then enters inside the palace of death. Sery looks under the ring and a bunch of weapons are under the ring. Plus weapons are hanging from the sides of the cell walls. But also there is a load of dynamite under the ring with a ticker. Sery grabs a barbed wire bat and enters the ring.
Jeffrey: You know I've grown to like Sery. He showed some balls in this feud.
Roberts: Yeah but he's been extremely disrespectful.
"Sad But True" by Metallica blasts through the sound system. A big inferno of fire hits the mini stage. Inferno comes out and he plays to the crowd from the instant. He points towards Sery on his way down and signals that he's going to explode! Inferno goes into the ring with no fear. Inferno stares down Sery. Sery just grips the bat.
The ref signals for the bell to ring. Sery and Inferno stay put in their places. Sery immdeiately charges though with the bat and takes a big swing but Inferno ducks out of the way. Sery turns around and again tries to hit him with a huge swing to the head. Inferno ducks out of the way of the bat once again. Sery tries again and Inferno kicks him in the gut and Sery drops the barbed wire bat. Inferno takes Sery and throws him into the ropes, Sery comes back, Inferno clotheslines him straight to the ground. Sery gets right back up and receives a big punch to the face. Sery gets up once again and gets a kick to the face. Sery rolls to the outside for a breather.
Roberts: Looks like Inferno has done his homework!
Jeffrey: Smart strategy by Sery! Taking that breather. He's learned so much!
Sery refuses to come back into the ring so Inferno chases him on the outside. Sery rolls in the ring and Inferno comes into the ring and Sery picks up the barbed wire bat and takes a swing. Inferno ducks then he hits Sery in the back of the head. Sery drops to his knees and Inferno takes Sery and throws him to the outside of the ring. Inferno comes to the outside of the ring and looks under the ring. He pulls out a table and sets it up. Sery is up now and Inferno tries to roll Sery onto it but Sery elbows him in the gut and throws him head first into the cell. Sery takes him once again and throws him into the cell! Inferno looks a bit dazed and Sery takes out tacks from under the ring. Sery spreads the tacks on the table! Sery backs away and runs at Inferno but Inferno takes Sery and hits a spinning power slam right into the table.
Roberts: OH MY GOD! Sery just got destroyed!
Jeffrey: This is going to be a very brutal match.
Inferno laughs at Sery's attempt then he takes a bat off from the side of the cell and he waits for Sery to bring himself to his feet. Once he does he tries to hit Sery with it but Sery catches it with one hand then kicks Inferno in the gut. He rips the bat away and hits Inferno in the gut with it. Sery throws Inferno's head into the ring apron, then throws him into the ring. Sery goes under the ring and pulls out a board full of barbed wire and he throws it into the ring. He slides into the ring and picks up Inferno. He puts Inferno in a headlock but Inferno pushes him into the ropes and Inferno flapjacks Sery into the ropes.
Roberts: Nice reversal!
Jeffrey: I thought so too!
Sery staggers right into a hip toss by the Insane One. Inferno stomps Sery in the ribs a few times then he sets up the barbed wire board in the corner of the ring. He picks up Sery by his hair and tries to irish whip him into it. Sery stops himself right before he gets to it. Inferno charges at Sery and Sery hits a pele kick onto Inferno. Inferno staggers backwards and Sery drop kicks Inferno into the opposite corner. Sery charges at Inferno and hits a clothesline into the turnbuckle. Sery takes Inferno all the way out to the middle of the ring and with all his might he thrusts Inferno right into the barbed wire board.
Roberts: Inferno must be torn to shreds!
Jeffrey: Oh my! He must be bleeding! serves him right!
Inferno falls backwards with the board attached to him. Sery goes into the turnbuckle and climbs to the top and hits a Whirling Twirlixer (450 Mushroom Stomp) right onto the board. Sery gets up and peels the board off of Inferno and he is bloodied up. His chest is covered in it. Sery grins towards the crowd as he brings Inferno to his feet. Sery sizes up Inferno then spits in his face. Inferno lets out a burst of energy punching Sery over and over again. Inferno walks over to Sery and Sery slaps him in the face. Inferno takes Sery and throws him to the outside of the ring and Sery crashes into the cage.
Roberts: What strength by the Insane One!
Jeffrey: I thought Sery was pretty insane with that last shot.
Inferno throws the board of barbed wire out of the ring. He goes to the outside of the ring and looks under the ring and finds a bed of nails. By this time its 15 minutes into the match. Inferno looks up at the clock and at the hole in the cage. He sets up the bed of nails so it is leaning up against the ring post. He picks up Sery and Sery elbows him a few times in the gut though. Inferno silences him with a thundering knee to the gut. Inferno takes Sery by the shoulders and back end and throws him into the bed of nails so Sery hits it back first. Sery lands on his front on the ground. Inferno picks up Sery and puts him over his shoulders. He takes Sery and rams him into the steel ring post. Inferno drops Sery off by throwing him to the ground. Inferno goes under the ring now and pulls out a ladder. He slides it into the ring and sets it up. He looks at the hole in the roof and starts to climb. Sery is up on the outside of the ring and Inferno is almost to the top of the ladder.
Roberts: Can Sery catch Inferno?
Jeffrey: You can do it Sery! You came this far! You can't lose now!
Sery gets to the apron and springboards off the ropes and dropkicks the ladder. Inferno crashes on the outside of the ring. Sery gets all wide eyed as if he just killed Inferno. Sery pulls himself to his feet with his back drenched in blood from the bed of nails. He sets up the ladder again. Sery stables the ladder and then starts the slow climb selling his injuries the whole way. Inferno pulls himself up and throws himself into the ring with all his might. Sery is almost at the top and Inferno starts to climb the ladder on the same side Sery is. He grabs onto Sery's leg and Sery can't shake him. He manages to escape from his grasp though and he turns around and leaps off with a sunset flip.
Roberts: What innovation!
Jeffrey: Sery's really impressing me lately. Inferno used to be such a bad ass...
Sery quickly gets up and he takes the ladder down and sets Inferno on top of it. He goes into the turnbuckle and climbs up it again. He then leaps off and tries for a Seryous Senton bomb but Inferno moves out of the way and Sery crashes and burns! Sery holds his back as we get to the 20 minute mark. Sery rolls to the outside of the ring. Inferno follows Sery and punches him all around the ring. Inferno throws Sery into the mesh and starts to grind his face into the mesh. Sery starts to gush blood out of his forehead. Inferno goes under the ring again and pulls out a spike. He knees down and has Sery's head and he starts digging in Sery's head with the spike. Sery screams with pain as Inferno goes away as Sery. Inferno gets up now with Sery's blood all over him and Sery is covered in his blood.
Roberts: That's sick!
Jeffrey: That's what we've been looking for! The Insane One!
Inferno throws the spike out and then he gets another ladder and sets it up into the ring. Sery is pulling himself into the ring and he crawls to the ladder. Inferno stomps on his face a few times then he picks up Sery and tries for a Inferno bomb. But when Inferno picks Sery up Sery grabs the ladder and escapes and starts to climb up the ladder real quick. Inferno grabs Sery by the leg and brings him down to his feet on the ground. Inferno lets him have it with right hands. Sery almost falls off his feet when he takes a DDT to the ground. Inferno goes up the ladders. Sery starts to pull himself up the ladder too. They get on the top of the ladder and they start to punch each other in the face back and forth.
Roberts: Oh no!
Jeffrey: Dangerous position here.
Sery and Inferno are going away at each other. Inferno smashes Sery's head into the ladder head. Sery is groggy and Inferno keeps smashing it into the ladder head. He tells Sery to go fuck himself but Sery slaps him in the face. Sery shimmies the ladder so they both fall over onto the mat. Inferno is the first one up and he puts the ladder in the corner then he picks up Sery and powerslams him back first into the ladder. Sery cringes in pain and wriggles all over the ground in pain. Inferno picks up Sery and the clock reads 5 minutes left in the match. He takes Sery and throws him over the top rope head first. Inferno picks up the ladder and sets it up. Inferno climbs the ladder once again and he is slow to get up there. Inferno is almost at the top but Sery with all his effort is up to his feet with a belt. Sery takes the belt and whips Inferno in the back with it and Inferno steps off the ladder and holds his back.
Roberts: He's whipping Inferno senseless!
Jeffrey: What guts does this Sery guy have?
Sery goes to whip it again but Inferno punches him in the face and he starts to whip Sery with it. Sery falls into the ropes but comes back and hits Inferno in the face with a lariat. Both of them are done until Sery stars to move as the clock is down to 1:30. Sery starts to climb up the ladder and Inferno is right on his heels. Sery gets up to the top and starts to climb out of the hole but Inferno grabs onto his feet. Sery tries to wiggle free but he can't get free. Sery reaches down towards Inferno's eyes and starts to dig his fingers into them. Inferno lets go to grab his eyes and Sery gets out of the cage.
Roberts: Sery won!
Jeffrey: Inferno still better get out of there if he wants to survive!
The countdown is at 30 seconds and Inferno tries to get out of the hole and he is holding on to it and the ladder tips over. He is almost out when Sery runs at him and dropkicks him down and Inferno falls straight down to the ring. Sery climbs off the cell and to safety as the countdown goes.
Roberts: OMG! Sery just kicked Inferno...to hell.
Jeffrey: Inferno's demise!

BOOM! The ring explodes in a heap of fire. Sery looks shocked that it actually exploded. Everything is on fire in the ring. The ring ceases to exist, really. Sery looks wide eyed and gets up and falls back over. He lifts his hands up in enjoyment saying that he did it!
Roberts: I don’t really know what to say about what happened.
Jeffrey: For once, we are both in agreement, Roberts.
After another quick ad for merch on the 4CW shop, we cut back to the arena.
The lights go dark in the arena, and the crowd begins to cheer, knowing what is coming next.
Muh-muh-muh-MY!
Muh-muh-muh-MY!
"Muh-muh-muh-MY POKER FACE, is screamed by none other than Clyde Bonham as 3's and 7's by Queens of the Stone Age hits the speakers with authority. Bonham hits the entryway, with the lights flickering quickly, and his trademark duster flowing briskly behind him. He has a maniacal look in his eyes as he heads down to the ring making a gun symbol with his hand before finding an unsuspecting kid in the ringside audience, and pointing it at him, getting in his face and screaming "BANG!" The kid breaks down in tears as Bonham spins around with glee, turning back to the kid and screaming at him! "I AM YOUR NEW CHAMPION KID! YOUR NEW CHAMPION!" Bonham cackles and continues his strut, sliding into the ring, continuing to laugh cynically as he removes his duster and Indiana Jones-esque hat. He lets out another laugh, as the lights stop flickering and Bonham rotates his wrists a bit, waiting for the 4cw World Champion to come out to the ring.
The videotron begins to flicker and turn to static. The lights begin to dim all throughout the arena. Spotlights light up filling the stage to the ring with round separated circles of light. Across the P.A “All Along The Watchtower” as performed by Bear McCreary begins to blare throughout the arena. The audience begins to cheer and their voices echo throughout the arena.
An aqua smoke begins to filter from the stage and all the way along the entrance ramp. Finally as the music hits a high note, a man clad in a black leather jacket and black trucks with a blue barb wire imprint steps out with his back to the crowd from the backstage. The crowd immediately recognizes the man and begins to cheer even more loudly than before. Cocozo finally turns around and begins to walk down the ramp, his 4cw World Championship strapped around his waist with pride. Cocozo keeps pacing down the ramp and slides under the bottom rope of the ring. The lights finally come back up in the arena as the crowd continues to go nuts. Cocozo removes the title and hands it to the referee, a bloodthirsty look in his eyes as he stares at the man who injured Roxy, his beloved.
Loveless: Ladies and gentleman, this match is your Main Event, and is for the 4cw World Championship! Introducing first, hailing from Death Falls, Nevada, he is the number one contender to the World Championship. Weighing in at 213 lbs, and standing at 6 feet even... he is CLYYYYDE BONNNNHAM!
The fans jeer and Bonham responds with only laughs as he continues to stare at Cocozo, rotating his wrists quicker.
Loveless: And his opponent, hailing from Toronto, Canada, he weighs in at 205 lbs, and also stands at 6 feet even. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present you your current 4CW World Champion... he is COOOOCOOOOZOOOO!!!
The fans cheer excitedly as the referee holds up the World Championship for all to see. Loveless steps out of the ring and the referee hands the title to the timekeeper.
Cocozo and Bonham, the match of 4CW. Neither man even bothers to do a stare down, or a circle around the ring. As soon as that bell rings, they clash straight away, lefts and rights traded as if this were a fight to the death. Cocozo, fuelled with rage and revenge on his mind, wins the punch-off, and continues to punch Bonham until he's stuck in the corner. Cocozo then hits a huge knife edge chop, burning the chest of Bonham. He continues the vicious assault, knife edge chop after knife edge chop until Bonham forces himself to move out of the way of the turnbuckle, a chest red raw.
Roberts: This match is gonna be a classic! I can feel it!
Cocozo runs over and clubs Cocozo on the back of the head. He then stomps him repeatedly, his fury the fuel to deliver so much damage. Cocozo picks up Bonham and kicks him in the gut, and hits a body slam. He then hooks the leg of Bonham, but Bonham kicks out after a 1 count. Cocozo picks up Bonham but Bonham delivers an uppercut out of nowhere, taking advantage as he sends Cocozo to the ropes this time. Bonham clotheslines Cocozo and then resorts to Mudhole Stomping him over and over and over again. Bonham picks up Cocozo and sets him up on the turnbuckle into the tree of woe. He then goes back and runs into the corner, taking out Cocozo with a monkey flip, sending the champion high into the air.
Bonham gets up, laughing maniacally, and picks up Cocozo with the intention of delivering even more damage to the World Champion. He hits a Snap Suplex, sending Coco to the mat. He then gets up and delivers an extra sting with a leg drop. Bonham covers. 1...2..kickout. Bonham doesn't give Cocozo a chance to recover, getting back to his feet and grabbing Cocozo. Cocozo tries to fight back but Bonham kicks him in the gut and hits a swinging neckbreaker. Bonham hooks the leg. 1...2.. but Coco kicks out! Bonham decides to up the ante, with the logic that more devastating moves will keep Cocozo down for the three. He gets up and picks up Cocozo once more.
Jeffrey: Bonham is dishing out the punishment here!
Roberts: But Cocozo still has a lot of fight in him! Don't count out the World Champion just yet!
He Irish whips Cocozo into the corner. Bonham then gets into the corner and delivers some punches, before lifting Cocozo and putting him in a seated position on the top turnbuckle. Cocozo fights back with some lefts but Bonham refuses to let Cocozo reverse, and punches him even faster, climbing the turnbuckle himself. Once they are both on the top rope, Bonham launches Cocozo into the air, executing a Superplex that slams both champion and challenger into the mat with extreme force. Bonham hooks the leg, hoping now, enough damage has been done. 1...2....but no - Cocozo kicks out again!
Bonham sits up, and sighs... this is starting to wear him out but Cocozo refuses to break. Bonham gets up but instead of picking up Cocozo, he goes over to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle. When he's reached the top, he jumps off for a Leg Drop - but Cocozo rolls out of the way, and Bonham's ass meets mat from 10 feet in the air! Cocozo rolls over to the corner and uses the turnbuckle to help himself to his feet. Bonham gets up and charges toward Cocozo - but Cocozo is prepared and takes him out with a belly-to-belly suplex! Cocozo covers this time. 1...2.. but Bonham kicks out!
Cocozo gets to his feet and tries to catch his breath. Bonham gets to his feet also. Cocozo sees this and continues on the attack, sending a left hook to Bonham, but Bonham sends a right back at him, and sends Cocozo to the ropes. Cocozo swings to the ropes and Bonham tries a clothesline, but Cocozo ducks, and runs to the ropes. Cocozo comes back with a clothesline attempt of his own but Bonham ducks. Cocozo bounces off the ropes again and comes back - walking right into a C4 from Bonham! Wham, Bam, Thank You Ma'am! Both men are on the floor exhausted after that big time move! Bonham slowly, ever so slowly, sits up and then turns to Cocozo. Bonham attempts to lock in the Tourniquet, but Cocozo sends a rogue punch to Bonham's face, and rolls out of the ring before Bonham can lock it in. Cocozo takes a deep breath and turns around - but Bonham is up and has jumped on the top rope, falling a bit and then bouncing back, executing a springboard shooting star press on Cocozo! The Incapacitator has hit! Both men lay on the ground outside the ring, seemigly unconscious, as the crowd chant "THIS IS AWESOME!" as loud as their lungs can carry them.
Both men's chest rise up and down slowly, as the referee slides out of the ring, checking on both men out of sheer safety. After feeling confident, he begins to count both men out.
1... 2.... 3... Cocozo starts to twitch a little bit, but Bonham is still motionless after the aerial endeavor.
4... 5.... 6... Cocozo gets to his side, and begins to use the ring apron to pull himself up, with Bonham only barely beginning to move.
7... 8- Cocozo is to his feet, and he glares at the referee shaking his head no. The champion seems to threaten the man in the white and black, who obviously gets the message as Cocozo grabs Bonham by the head. The count ceases, and Bonham is rolled back into the ring, with a clearly aching Cocozo quickly in tow. Cocozo stands on the apron and glares a hole through Bonham, who is trying to get on all fours. Bonham reaches the dog position, but is quickly going to fall back to the canvas as Cocozo leaps up to the top rope and goes airborne with a Swanton Bomb! The fans gasp a bit, and quickly fill the arena with cheers for their champion, who slowly rolls Bonham over for a pin.
1...2....3..! NO! Bonham puts his foot on the bottom rope with the referee's hand only a hair away!
Jeffrey: BONHAM KICKS OUT! How close was that?!
Roberts: We almost saw Cocozo retain the title!
Cocozo gets to his feet, clearly angered by the prowess of his opponent. He lifts Bonham up and hoists him up into a rare Powerbomb maneuver, and he lifts him up a second time, and then a third! Cocozo shouts at Bonham “THIS IS FOR ROXY!” before plowing him to the mat a fourth time. Anger fuels the champion, but he falters a bit as he heads from the center of the ring to the turnbuckle, fatigue becoming a factor, and the adrenaline wearing thin quickly. The champion takes a deep breath, slowly stepping out and climbing the turnbuckle cautiously. Cocozo reaches the top and measures Bonham up, turning around and going for the advanced corkscrew moonsault known only as The Flight of the Phoenix. Bonham starts to roll a bit, but it is too late, the move hits! Cocozo cringes, hitting a bit of Bonham's side and not straight on him as a flat body. Bonham flattens back out, and Cocozo crawls, slowly, to cover his adversary. Cocozo reaches his arm over and barely hooks the leg as the referee begins to count.
1...2...3..! NO! Another broken pinfall as Bonham barely gets his left shoulder up! Cozozo rolls off, with an angered, yet befuddled look on his face. The crowd is astonished that anyone managed to kick out of the Flight of the Phoenix, and the air seems to be sucked out of the room. Even the referee looks puzzled that the match is continuing, but he motions for the men to carry on.
Roberts: Both men are giving everything they've got here! They'll fight to the death if they have to!
Cocozo struggles to get to his feet, the aches beginning to set in on both men now. Bonham simply rolls over on his stomach, allowing the canvas to serve as a sofa of sorts, his body in too much pain to do anything else. Cocozo grabs him by the skull, and begins to pull him to his feet again. Bonham suddenly breaks the grasp of the 4cw Champ, and wraps his own hands around Cocozo's head, dropping to his knees and taking Cocozo down with a jawbreaker! Bonham stands, wobbling, and smiles a bit, cackling at Cocozo. Cocozo is pulled to his feet, and Bonham locks in the underhooks, taking the champ for a ride with the Underhook Suplex. Bonham pulls him to his feet and turns him upside down, placing him in the tree of woe. Cocozo starts to squirm, trying to get himself loose, and the referee starts to warn Bonham that what he is doing is illegal. the smile stays plastered on the contenders face, as he backs back a few more steps, stopping to pull out a lighter and blow into the flames, followed by a mimic of Roxy's screams. Cocozo turns red and begins to scramble more to get free from the tree of woe, prompting Bonham to take off and slide into home plate safe with a successful baseball slide. Cocozo crumples to the mat and Bonham starts to pin him, but shakes his head, deciding to inflict more damage instead.
Bonham pulls up Cocozo and hoists him up to his shoulders, in an electric chair. Cocozo is dazed, but starts to punch at Bonham's head once he realizes exactly where he is though. He only gets two punches off before Bonham tosses him upwards, spinning around to catch him and slam him to the mat with a sitdown Powerbomb. Bonham holds the champion down for a pin.
1...2... NO! Cocozo kicks out, and it is Bonham's turn to be enraged! Bonham gets to his feet, and the referee is in his way, prompting Bonham to scream at him to move.
Jeffrey: What does Bonham have to do to put away the champion?!
Bonham pulls Cocozo to his feet again and places him in another Electric Chair. With no time for anything, the Champion is airborne again, and he crashes to the mat with another sitdown Powerbomb. Bonham releases the pin this time, rolling backwards and clutching his side. Bonham in obvious pain, rolls around a bit, his side tweaked from the two powerbombs. The referee checks on him, but Bonham pushes him away, using the ropes to get to his feet. He staggers over to Cocozo, stopping about halfway to draw in a long, deep breath, as he grimaces from the pain. The challenger grasps at the lucha libre trained star, but Cocozo pulls him down, rolling him back to the middle of the ring and snapping his ankle straight into an ankle lock! The pain is evident on the face of Bonham, and the second wind has hit the champion!
Cocozo continues to twist on the ankle of Clyde Bonham, who is refusing to give up easily. Clyde starts to crawl towards the ropes, but Cocozo pulls him back to the center of the ring as he nearly grasps the bottom rope. Clyde slams his hands down on the mat in frustration and starts to try to get to the ropes once again, but he finds himself pulled back to the center again! Bonham shakes his head, the pain surging throughout his body. Bonham collapses to the mat as the referee reaches down to check on him. The referee lifts up an arm, and gets no response. 1! The ref repeats the maneuver for a second time... 2! The referee shakes his head and lifets up the arm one last time... and suddenly there is life! Bonham starts to crawl feverishly towards the ropes, but Cocozo pulls him back a bit, prompting Bonham to turn over and kick Cocozo off! Bonham starts to scramble to his feet, but Cocozo charges, clotheslining Bonham back to the mat!
Cocozo turns Bonham back over, now determined to break his ankle, but Bonham turns it back, kicking off his opponent. Cocozo heads back towards Bonham, and meets with the rising Bonham, executing a flipping dropkick, but Bonham crashes to the mat, clutching at his ribs a bit, but making Cocozo miss his attack in return. Bonham is to his feet quickly, clutching his side, and Cocozo shortly follows, but he is caught with a diving forearm! Bonham has a fresh wind, and turns Cocozo over on his stomach.
Bonham hastily sits down behind the champion and grasps his arms greedily. He holds Cocozo's arms up, getting his legs under his back, sitting down and pulling the champ's neck into his knees, but Cocozo surges with energy, pushing Clyde against the ropes and using the leverage to stand and snap away from Clyde's grasp, taking him to the mat with a cutter! Cocozo staggers over to the turnbuckle, scaling it with determination. He throws no caution to the wind as he lifts off, twisting with his Top Rope Advanced Corkscrew Moonsault, the Flight of the Phoenix! The graceful maneuver hits its target perfectly, and Cocozo bounces back, but not too far. Cocozo turns back onto his stomach, using an army crawl to cover his opponent.
1!

No response from Bonham as the crowd is electrified with the turn of events!
Loveless: Here is your winner and STILLLLLL 4CW WORLD CHAMPION ... COCOZO!!
Cocozo rolls over, and sits up, a look of glee on his face as he has successfully retained his championship! His mind rolls to Roxy and tears well up, vengeance being achieved against this wretched adversary. The referee hands him his title, which he clutches as he works to his feet, raising it high with pride, as flashbulbs go off around the arena. No words can describe Cocozo's gratification of putting Bonham away, as the defending champion collapses to his knees from pride and exhaustion.
Roberts: That man has done it! Cocozo is still the champion! Cocozo has proven that he deserves to hold that title and my god, what a match!
Jeffrey: I hate to say it, but Cocozo was impressive!
Roberts: Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us! This has been a hell of a show! Goodnight, and join us next week for Storm Front! COCOZO RETAINS!!
