FROZEN HELL vs. THE DISCO DANCE KINGS [non-title] [The ring announcement of Frozen Hell is cut short by the squealing of tires and videowall going to an outside shot of the parking lot. A familiar theme blares out over the sound system (well, familiar to 70s cop show afficianados) as a red Gran Torino with a white racing stripe careens around the corner, fishtails and comes skidding to a halt knocking over trashcans in the parking lot. At this point, the video production leaves a bit to be desired as the cutaway jumps a bit (presumably to remove the stunt drivers) and the passenger side door opens. Frieda, steps out with her long legs encased in bell-bottom blue jeans, a jean jacket over an orange t-shirt (Florida's finest never looked so good...or ripe) with her blonde hair tucked up under a leather cap that Huggy Bear wished he could have made look so good. Following Frieda is a sunglasses-wearing Torvald Reikkersen in a soft brown leather jacket over a black sweater and dark brown corduroy pants as Detective Ken Hutchenson. Climbing from the drivers' side is Brad Watkins (in permed black wig) wearing blue jeans, and a handwoven cream and black patterned sweater over a button-up shirt. Watkins slides across the hood a la Detective David Starsky and the trio enter the arena.] Frozen Hell walks in to greet their many fans and seemingly does not hear the boos (well, Frieda gets some cheers) along their walk to the ring where they prepare for the Disco Dance Kings. Suddenly "Fire on High" by ELO begins to play and Watkins and Reikkersen look at each other shocked, they turn to Freida who just shrugs. Bryan "B.G." Grant walks out dressed in blue slacks and a brown leather jacket and an arrogant sneer that makes him resemble Elvis more than Sven Broderick, and he even swivels his hips a bit before gesturing with "dual pistol action." Following close behind is Jimmy "Saturday Night" LeFebvre (as Rock Badderman) wearing a ripped dress shirt and loosened necktie, complete with a drawn-on scar down the left side of his face. LeFebvre stops and poses every few feet, flips out his police badge, and yells something about being "Bad" before making like he is firing off some heavy automatic weapon. Needless to say, the crowd is going crazy over this parody, while Frozen Hell steams in the ring. The Disco Dance Kings roll in the ring still whooping it up as the movie stars as Jimmy LeFebvre approaches Brad Watkins with the badge under the guise of a mock arrest, while B.G. Grant makes the foolish mistake of "seducing" Frieda. Watkins explodes on LeFebvre with a running forearm that send the badge flying across the ring as Reikkersen shoots out a vicious kick to the back of Grant's knee dropping him quickly. With the Dance Kings under assault the referee calls for the bell and we're under way. After some initial pleading finally Grant is kicked from the ring (literally) and LeFebvre bears the brunt of the Watkins attack. Punches and kicks send him to the corner where Watkins whips him to the far ropes into a powerslam. A knee drop (yes, that knee) finds the mark across LeFebvre's forehead and Watkins drags him over to Reikkersen by the leg. Tag to Reikkersen who takes the opportunity of the held leg and bounces off the ropes for a running kick to the hamstring and then a double posthole slam on the knee sends Watkins to the outside. Reikkersen helped the game LeFebvre up to his good leg and then picked him up for a kneebreaker on the targeted extremity. Reikkersen then went for the Figure Fjord but LeFebvre grabbed the ropes, so Reikkersen then placed LeFebvre's leg on the bottom rope and repeated sit-down splashes drove the point home that LeFebvre's dancing days were numbered. This relentless punishment brought the referee over to administer a 5 count but he became preoccupied by Watkins who rushed over to Grant and knocked him off the apron and was rearranging the ringside area (along with Grant's body). The referee chose to restore order which left Reikkersen and LeFebvre alone (with Frieda) and she quickly slid a chair into the ring where Reikkersen bashed LeFebvre's knee a few times with the metal before sliding it over the leg and measuring out a knee drop (and cool roll afterwards WHOO!) that had LeFebvre's howling in pain. The chair was removed the Figure Fjord was hooked on in center ring and the referee miraculously made it back in to award the victory to the World Champs. B.G. Grant staggered back in in a vain attempt to see to his partner and ended up paying the price as Watkins gave him a knee to the back and then retrieved the phony police badge LeFebvre brought into the ring and began smashing/ripping at Grant's face with it drawing blood as the referees, Natrone Getz and the Pendragons rushed to the ring to stop the carnage. Watkins, Reikkersen and Frieda made a hasty retreat reveling in the "cheers." ******************************* **Winners: Frozen Hell, 5:12** ******************************* [GZ] Damn, that was a great showing by Frozen Hell--incredible intensity coupled with a real mean streak. I don't think the Disco Dance Kings will be doing too much in the way of showboating any time soon. [AB] While it was quite the display by the EWC World Tag Team Champions, but they won't find nearly as much time for such schenanigans when they face the former champions, Weapons of Last Resort, at Hardcore Homecoming. [GZ] That's IF the Weapons aren't taken out of the picture during Turner's match on Lord of the Rings with Watkins, that is. You know the champions will have something planned for that match. [AB] And you don't think Turner and Kenzake will be ready for it? You never give those two enough credit. They're the former champs and you have to remember Frozen Hell never defeated them. [GZ] That's because the current champs outsmarted them then and they'll outsmart them again over the next few weeks. [AB] Next up we have a match that was signed after the brutal attack by Mikhail Tzskova and Sidi al Nassir on Titus Moongarden and Clay Evans last week on Impact. [GZ] For those of you who have forgotten, Moongarden stole all of Nassir's belongings so the Chic Sheikh came after him for revenge. When Evans tried to stick his nose into someone else's business, Moongarden's chief rival to this date, "The Philosopher" got involved and Evans was left out cold too. [AB] That's a one sided recap. For a hint of the other side let's go to the back where Clay Evans is standing by. ===== [Evans] So, "Philosopher", how is it that you feel you cowardice will go unpunished? Allow me to inform you of my philosophy. I believe in dismembering fools like you. Slowly, but surely. I think that first I will take your head from you. It surely isn't serving you well, so I hardly think you would miss it. No, no... I will simply break every bone in your body.. one by one by one. First, I will take your legs from you. Fitting, really. You took Doctor Feelgood's legs from him, and I will present yours to him on a silver platter. Yes. Yes, that should be sufficient to start with. Oh, and as for a certain announcer who sees fit to disrespect my former "gimmick", if you will... either you will cease, or, plainly put, *you* will be a target of the "Dematerialization". The choice is yours, prole. (fade to black) ===== [GZ] If that was a thinly veiled threat to me, I'm going to hire the Chaos Brigade to go out there and rip him in two. And who is he kidding anyway? Evans already had his ass handed to him during the royal rumble, he's going to be easy pickings for Tzskova. [AB] Moongarden is completely fresh and he's looking to go after Tzskova as well. [GZ] Titus has got to be the stupidest wrestler in the EWC. He's made so many enemies, between Tzskova, Frown, Nassir, he just keeps getting attacked and almost never gets to actually fight. I hope tonight is no different, so Evans can get crippled in there. [AB] Wow, someone with some pent up hostility there. Referee Ray Chapman is in the ring, so let's get this match underway. MIKHAIL TZSKOVA & SIDI AL NASSIR vs. TITUS MOONGARDEN & CLAY EVANS "Heaven for Everyone" by Queen cuts on and two extremely attractive women come out drawing several catcalls and cheers. They are soon flanked by Sidi al Nassir and Mikhail Tzskova and that turns the response into a negative one in a real hurry. On the way to the ring Nassir grabs the house mic... [al Nassir] It's trick-or-treat time people, so let's get the Mooncalf and the BBC wannabe out here so Mikhail and I can go home and pass out some Ex-Lax to all your little monsters. (boooooooo...) *SHORT REPORT ON* That makes the crowd even angrier, but once "So Far I Have Not Found the Science" by Soul Coughing faded on and the psychadelic lights kicked in, the fans soon started cheering again. Evans (back in his standard wrestling attire) and Moongarden didn't wait for any introductions through, they just charged the ring and slid straight under the bottom rope and towards their opponents. Tzskova and Nassir were waiting for them and immediately started to stomp away before they could get to their feet. Moongarden and Evans had braced themselves for the blows and shrugged most of them off, getting to their feet behind a series of elbows to the stomach that left their opponents open for european uppercuts followed by a classic "noggin' nocker." With their opponents dazed Evans and Moongarden split them up--Moongarden hit a leaping shoulder tackle that sent Nassir through the ropes and into the steel divider, while Evans used a dragonscrew leg whip to floor Tzskova before coming off the ropes and drop kicking him square in the face. As the crowd cheered wildly, Chapman finally stepped in and forced the combatants to get things settled. Moongarden stayed in the ring with Tzskova as the announcers hyped that this had been a long time coming. Moongarden scooped Tzskova up and slammed him to the mat before coming off the ropes and connecting with a sharp looking corkscrew elbow. He stayed right on top of "The Philosopher" dropping a leg across this throat. Zane begrudingly admitted that Moongarden was looking good but was quick to add that it was because he was acting more aggressively and not pandering to the fans. Tzskova was whipped to the ropes and caught on his way back for a 180 degree side walk slam that drew a large pop and a 2 and a half count. The tag was made to Evans and the offense changed modes but didn't decrease in intensity. Evans stayed right on Tzskova's back dropping two high elevation knee drops and then executing a side russian leg sweep to bring Tzskova back to the mat. "The Timelord" grabbed his legs and seemed to be going for the Dematerialization but Nassir, who was back on the apron, charged in and dropped Evans with a sacrifice clothesline. Chapman admonished him but at the same time did nothing to stop Nassir from dragging Tzskova's body back into their corner and legally tagging in. Nassir went straight up to the top rope and caught Evans with a flying clothesline that had really nice hangtime. Nassir followed that up with a jumping piledriver that had the crowd groaning when Evans seemingly bounced straight off the mat. Nassir tooks a moment to check with Tzskova and see how he was recovering. When he went back to Evans he was briefly slowed with a headbutt to the stomach, but he leap-frogged over a lunging punch attempt and came down right on the back of Evans' head. Evans was lifted up for a suplex, but Nassir turned and dropped him stomach-first over the top rope. Nassir then took a running charge, leapt over Evans, grabbed his body and hit a sunset smash to the concrete that (in an odd bizarro world moment) actually got the crowd cheering for a Nassir move. Tzskova then stepped into the ring and tried to slap at Moongarden in order to draw him into the ring; it worked. While Chapman dealt with those two, Nassir was able to pick up a steel chair and crack it over Evans' head. Nassir then set up the chair and put Evans onto it before going back onto the apron. Exactly what he was going for we'll never know since Moongarden was able to "accidentally" knock Ray Chapman into Nassir sending him off the apron and arm first onto the ringstairs. Zane was quick to point out that was the same arm he had taped up on last week's show thanks to Simon Sanders' snapping. Chapman started a slow count which actually got as high as 7 before Nassir rolled himself back into the ring and tagged Tzskova in, breaking up the count. He went to grab Evans and drag him back into the ring but Evans was altert enough to take Tzskova's head and snap it over the top rope. That allowed him to get into the ring. He rolled under an attempted clothesline and tagged back in to Moongarden drawing a tremendous cheer and a TI-TUS chant. Titus and Tzskova locked up with the stronger Moongarden gaining the advantage and backing Tzskova into the corner for several open handed chops. Two big headbutts left Tzskova open for an inverted atomic drop that left "The Philosopher" slumped over in the corner. Moongarden went for an irish whip but Tzskova reversed and sent Titus into the corner. Hardly phased Moongarden charged back at his opponent only to get caught with a drop kick to the knee that knocked him straight over. Tzskova went right at Moongarden's leg draping it over the second rope and leaping onto it, repeatedly jarring it with his weight. It appeared as if Tzskova was going for a back suplex but instead he turned his body and drove Titus, knee first into the mat. The leg was then synched in a crucifix kneebar as the tag was made to Nassir. The Sheikh came off the top rope with his patented somersault leg drop and covered for 2 and 9/10. Nassir sent Moongarden to the ropes but his knee buckled, so Nassir stopped in his tracks and caught him with a leg lariat. Zane made a point of stressing how Tzskova and Nassir showed a lack of continuity as Nassir had abandoned the leg weaked by his partner. Titus still refused to go down as he remained on one knee--Nassir just waited for him and, as he got back up, Nassir started spinning before connecting with the "Whirling Dervish" a series of spinning backfist strikes to the jaw that busted Moongarden open. Titus was grabbed and lifted into the air for a gutwrench suplex, yet on the way over, Evans was able to reach out and tag his partner. Nassir was unaware of this and, as he covered, was wide open with a second rope forearm drop to the back of the head. Nassir was yanked off the mat, kicked in the stomach, and sent face first to the mat courtesy of a sit-down face slam. He covered but Tzskova came into the ring and broke up the count. Moongarden couldn't resist coming back into the ring which, of course, distracted Chapman. This gave Tzskova a window to save his partner by pulling down the top rope causing a running Evans to sail over the top rope. Tzskova followed him down and sent him flying into the post. By the time Chapman was facing the action Nassir was legally tagging Tzskova into the match. When Evans got back onto the apron Tzskova grabbed him and helped him back in with a vertical suplex. He then grabbed Evans' leg and hit three successive running leg snaps before dropping two leg drops for good measure. Things only got worse for Evans as Tzskova grabbed the leg, ran up the ropes and snapped back really wrenching it good. That left Evans wide open to be locked in a Texas Cloverleaf and drew Chapman over to check for a submission. With Chapman's attention elsewhere, Nassir left the apron and snuck up from behind Moongarden, hitting him in the knee with the time keeper's bell and then press slamming him onto the concrete. Nassir and Tzskova made eye contact and nodded. "The Philosopher" then released the hold, dropped a headbutt to the inner thigh, and then locked on a scorpion deathlock. Zane reveled in the irony of Tzskova using Evans' own hold to punish him while Nassir continued to pound on Moongarden on the floor. There was only one problem, Evans knew the hold well enough that he was able to reverse it and end up with Tzskova trapped at center ring and Nassir oblivious to his plight. Tzskova hung in there for a rather long time and almost got to the ropes, but eventually it was too much and he was forced to tap out. *************************************** **Winners: Evans & Moongarden, 10:24** *************************************** *SHORT REPORT OFF* [AB] Evans and Moongarden have won it!!! The only catch is that Evans is refusing to release Tzskova from the "Dematerialization." Chapman is trying to get him off but Evans uses his free hand to toss him aside and now he just rears back to apply more pressure! Evans said he was going to try and break Tzskova's legs. [GZ] Somebody stop this psychopath! Nassir finally realizes what's going on and he grabs a chair. CRACK!!! Evans never saw him coming and Nassir is able to free his partner and split Evans head open!!! Now THIS is what I like to see!!! (mega-jeers) [AB] Tzskova slides to the corner to try and regain some feeling in his lower back as Nassir sits Evans on the top rope and goes up after him. SCIRROCCO DDT!!! Evans is out cold!!! [GZ] You didn't seem this hung up on stopping the violence when Evans was dishing it out. Afraid he can't take it? (the crowd bursts into cheers) [AB] Titus is back up and he's in the ring lunging like a man possessed!!! Clothesline drops Nassir and now Tzskova grabs him and they hit the runway helping eachother to the back. And the crowd is cheering Titus in the ring, celebrating his team's victory. [GZ] Funny, but Nassir and Tzskova are the ones walking away, while Moongarden is tending to a bloody Clay Evans. You tell me who the REAL winners are. [AB] This war may not be over yet, Greg. [GZ] I think Mikhail and Sidi are more than ready for it. [AB] Now it's time to take a look at another newcomer to the EWC--his name is Genesis. [GZ] And mine's Nintendo. Hah! ===== [Cut to... a room of some sort. Its dark, very dark, and in the shadows we can barely make out two men. No details, but one is clearly bigger than the other. The rest of the room is mostly blacked out, with some red light along the floor being the only illumination.] [Big Man] It is time. The Genesis has awoken. [Small Man] It is indeed time. Time for you, my friend, to go out there and wreck havoc on the unsuspecting enemies, to gain revenge for victims everywhere. [Big Man] I will go out there AND PURGE ALL EVIL! I will NOT BE STOPPED! I will NOT BE CONTAINED! I AM GENESIS!! And now its time for me to RAISE A LITTLE HELL!!! [Small Man] Evil-doers beware, Genesis is on his way. (Fade out.) ===== GENESIS vs. "THE SILVER FOX" RANDALL RUSSO [Russo was announced first to no great crowd reaction. Some of the really old timers seemed to remember him, but mostly it was just polite applause. Then the lights were cut...] [PA System] His opponent... standing 6'8 and weighing 278lbs... led to the ring by his manager, Seth... here is... GENESIS! [As "Orion" by Metallica started playing, the aisle way lit up with red, as smoke poured out of the entrance way. A blinding light was then lit from the back, and in the light was seen the sillouette of a large man, muscles everywhere. By his side, a smaller man with a cane. Together they walked out, the smaller man, Seth, wearing ordinary clothes but walking with a cane with a devils tail twisting around it, and the larger man, Genesis, wearing long red pants, the picture of a devils tail twisting down one leg and one of an angels wing on the other. Completing the outfit was his studded leather bracelets and black leather boots. He stalked down to ringside, waiting only for Seth to catch up.] [AB] What an imposing specimen. If this rookie is half as dangerous as he looks, he's going to hurt a lot of people. [GZ] Do you know anything about wrestling? That guy's no rookie--he's one half of the former USeW TV Tag Champs Heaven and Hell. If he's half as lousy now as he was then, Russo may still have another shot at glory. After Genesis had entered the ring, *over* the top rope of course, the referee caled both men to the middle of the ring and called for the bell. Russo started out strong, hammering Genesis with numerous double axehandles. Unfortunately for the grizzled old job... veteran, they were easily shrugged off by the imposing monster. A single right hand from Genesis, however, took Russo off his feet. He got up quickly, but this time ran right into a BIG spinebuster! Genesis was on him like a cat, lifting him up with a single hand on the throat, and converting it into an impressive one handed choke slam. Having toyed enough with the old-timer, Genesis hooked on a double underhook, yanking Russo off his feet with a double underhook powerbomb, named the "Soul Reaper" by {pick an announcer}, a move that easily got him the win. ************************** **Winner: Genesis, 2:13** ************************** [AB] What was that about not being impressive? Genesis just annihilates Randall Russo. I see big things for this man. [GZ] He beat Randall Russo, not Chris Sims-let's not get carried away. He's used to being a tag team specialist, I'm not sold that he can win on his own. Let's wait and see. [AB] When we return, it's Power Supply against Children of Apocalypse for a shot at the North American Tag Team Title finals.
