VENOM

(The lights go off and there's a big explosion followed by fireworks. The lights go on again and on the titantron "VENOM" appears. Then the titantron shows clips of last weeks VENOM. Then the screen fades to black).

John Pilchard: Welcome welcome welcome, we are only 2 weeks away from Survivor!! Only two weeks before the tournament for the Universal Title will come to an end. Tonight we are gonna see 4 first round matches for the tournament. Neil what matches of the first round are we gonna see tonight?

Neil Down: Let me get my paper here, John. Ok, Sparhawk vs. James Demise, Exile vs. Freak Destroyer Cerberus, Danny Christ vs. Mauler and Dan Prohibition vs. Alexander Glory.

JP: But thats not all. We are also gonna see a tagmatch between Jawz and Shane Johnson and they are gonna fight Tony DeLucci and Lazarus. And thats the first match of the evening.


Shane Johnson/Jawz vs. Tony DeLucci/Lazarus

JP: And there's one real exciting thing about this match. Its Shane Johnson's return to the ring. And you know what that means, it promises alot of highflying action. Besides that I am eager to see him team up with Jawz, as Jawz really showed some good stuff last week in that ladder match with Dan Prohibition.

ND: Lets go to the match John.

(Eat the rich starts to play and Tony DeLucci and Lazarus are coming out. The crowd doesn't really give them much of an reaction as they walk over to the ring and enter it).

(Then Desentisized starts to play and both Jawz and Shane Johnson come out and run to the ring. The crowd gives them and especially Shane Johnson a big pop. They run to the ring and slide in).

JP: Oooh all four start to go at it right away. The ref didn't even have the time to explain the rules. Shane and DeLucci go at it, while the same goes for Jawz and Lazarus. Ofcourse Shane goes for DeLucci as he still got a thing to settle with him. Remember that Tony DeLucci was a former member of The Royal Family and DeLucci was responsible for Joe Johnson leaving the EWCL. And to freshen things up Joe is Shane's brother.

ND: Thanks for clearing that up John.

JP: Yeah yeah Neil.

ND: Back to the match now, the ref got in the middle of the four brawlers and even made them all go to their corner. Now it is Shane who is gonna start and he is gonna start off against Lazarus. They circle eachother for a few seconds and then its Shane who takes the initiative with an armdrag takedown. He holds on to the arm and hooks in an armlock right after.

JP: Shane looking in the camera now while he has Lazarus in that armlock. A few seconds later Shane lets go and he picks Lazarus up and sends him into the ropes. Lazarus comes off the ropes and Shane jumps on him and headscissor takedown!!! Ooh yeah Shane is back in town. Shane now goes over to Jawz and tags him in.

ND: Shane stays in the ring and picks up Lazarus one more time and sends him in the ropes, when he comes off he does a droptoe hold and Jawz follows that up with doing a baseball slide right into Lazarus's head!!! OOOOH YEAHHH that was some double team move!!! These two guys now how to do it. Shane now back in his corner and Jawz in control now. Jawz picks Lazarus up and lifts him up and piledrives him into the mat.

JP: Jawz back to his feet and again he picks Lazarus up, but then its DeLucci who comes in and charges into Jawz and takes him down with a viscious clothesline. The ref makes DeLucci go back to his corner again, but the damage is already done. As Lazarus meanwhile picked Jawz up and slams him back to the mat. Lazarus doesn't waste any time and he tags in DeLucci.

ND: DeLucci comes in and grabs Jawz, lifts him up and scoopslams him back into the mat. He then picks Jawz up again and once again he scoopslams him into the mat. For a third time DeLucci picks Jawz up for a scoopslam, but Jawz gets in a punch to the midsection of DeLucci. Jawz bounces in the ropes and comes off and takes DeLucci to the mat with a flying forearm. Jawz on top of DeLucci and he goes for the pin. 1..........2......but kickout by the Italian.

JP: Jawz picks DeLucci up and whips him in the ropes. While DeLucci bounces in the ropes Jawz tags in Shane and when DeLucci comes back from the ropes they double dropkick DeLucci straight in the kisser. What a banggg and DeLucci is out!!!! Shane climbs the topturnbuckle now and signals the Resurrection!!! Man, its been a while since we have seen that move!!! He dives off, but OOHHHHH DeLucci moved out of the way in the last moment!!!

ND: DeLucci back up and he grabs Shane by the head and hooks in a sleeperhold. We can see the energy floating out of Shane here now. But ooooh DeLucci changes the sleeperhold into a ddt!!! Nice move there!!! DeLucci goes for the cover now. 1.........2.............but Shane kicks out in the last second. DeLucci not too happy with that, but he picks Shane up again and sends him in the ropes, he comes off and DeLucci goes a clothesline, but Shane ducks the arm, comes back off the ropes and takes DeLucci to the mat with a spinning heelkick.

JP: Shane quickly tags in Jawz, while DeLucci crawls over to his corner to tag in Lazarus. Jawz and Lazarus tie up and Lazarus knees Jawz to the gut. But Jawz doesn't seem to notice that and he pushes Lazarus into the ropes and charges in for a clothesline!! And he clotheslines Lazarus over the toprope to the outside and he flies over the toprope himself aswell!!! That was a great move by Jawz but it also took a lot out of him.

ND: Jawz is slowly starting to get back to his feet, but wait ooooh he gets attacked from behind by Tony DeLucci. DeLucci kicks him in the head and hooks in another sleeperhold like he did before. It seems DeLucci wants to go for ddt now, but oooooh its Shane who is standing on the topturnbuckle now and with a moonsault he dives off and lands on DeLucci!!!! What a move!! What a kamikaze move by the Loose Cannon.

JP: Its Jawz now who rolls Lazarus back into the ring and joins in right after. Jawz whips his opponent in the ropes and when he comes off he kicks Lazarus in the stomache and he follows up the Tantrum, his double arm ddt finisher. And he executes it!!! Jawz for the cover now. 1............2..............3.................yeahhhhhhh Shane Johnson and Jawz won this match and what a comeback for Shane Johnson it was.

(Commercials).

Winner: Shane Johnson/Jawz


(We come back from the commercials and the cameraman is shooting some shots backstage. We see Jack Off Joe talking to Herbie Hiscock and we also see Jawz and Shane coming back from their victory win. Then the cameraman turns to the left and all the way in the back of the hallway we see a figure. The cameraman tries to zoom in, but all we see is the back of the figure and the trenchcoat he is wearing and moments later the figure has dissappeared. Then cameraman then turns to his right and we see Sparhawks lockkerroom and the door is open. The camera slowly starts to enter the room and looks around, but there is no sign of anybody in the lockerroom. All we see though is that the door to the bathrooom is half opend. The cameraman decides to walk over to the bathroomdoor and when he reaches it he decides to step in. He steps in and looks around, till he sees the mirror and within a second it seems like he dropped the camera as everything goes to a blank).

JP: What the hell is that???

(Moments later we see footage again of Sparhawks lockkerrom. The cameraman is still standing in the bathroom and he zooms in on the mirror one more time. Now he zooms in long enough so everybody can see what scared him. The mirror has something written in red on it. A red fluid that seems to be blood. The mirror has the following written on it: "BLOODY MAGGOT...........ARE YOU GONNA SURVIVE.......SOON").

JP: Nooooo, not again!!!!

(Commercials).


Sparhawk vs. James Demise - 1st Round Tournament

JP: Did you see that!!! There was another note, well can't call it a note though, but there was another messenge. Who is this messenger and what does he want!!!

ND: Or she.

JP: I doubt its a she, Neil.

ND: Aghh, don't ruin my fantasy here, John.

JP: ...

JP: Ok. Its time for the start of our tournament for the Universal Title. Today there are four matches and next week there are four matches of the first round. The rest of the tournament will take place at the Survivor ppv.

ND: So now our first match Sparhawk versus James Demise.

(Right after those words its Sparhawk who comes running to the ring. He doesn't even has his horse with him. It is clear to see that he saw what was written on his mirror and he is clearly ready to kick the crap out of someone. He rushes to the ring and slides in).

(Then we see James Demise walking backstage. He is making his to the curtains, but just before he reaches them someone comes up from behind him. Its Danny Christ who grabs Demise by the head and he ddt's him to the concrete. Christ picks Demise up once more and he executes his finisher the Sign Off and Demise lands on a garbage can and is busted wide open).

JP: OOOOH MYYYY GODDDDD!!!!

ND: Awesome, unbelievable...the saviour is in the house!!!! Our hero, the man, the moment we all have been waiting for!!!!

JP: You really should get a grip here Neil. The man just sneakattacked James Demise and you cheer that on?

ND: But did you see the way he sneackattacked him, that was pure excellence. Man sofar the moment of the evening for me!!!

(In the ring we see Sparhawk still waiting for his opponent. James Demise's music already started to play for 2 times, but still no Demise. After 20 seconds more the ref turns to Sparhawk and raises his hand into the air. At the same time Jay Blue announces that Sparhawk has won this match and goes on to the quarterfinals of the tournament).

JP: You happy now Neil. You happy that we never seen a match now here.

ND: Agh, shut up John.

JP: I have no words for you Neil. But people Sparhawk was lucky and he qualified himself for the second round. Good for him, too bad for James Demise.

(Commercials).

Winner: Sparhawk


Exile vs. Freak Destroyer Cerberus(c) - 1st Round Tournament

JP: Now lets see if the second first round match is gonna be more exciting here. It should be intresting as the new Internet Champion Freak Destroyer Cerberus has to fight former Internet champion and commisioner Exile. Lets go to the ring.

(Freak on a leash starts to play and its the new champ who comes out. He gets a decent pop by the crowd. While he walks to the ring he shows his Internet Title to the fans. He then slides in the ring and waits for Exile).

(Extreme days by DC Talk starts to play and Exile comes out. He is not alone as Roadblock escorts him down the aisle to the ring. The crowd starts to booo from the moment they see Exile. He hasn't made himself popular ever since he is a commisioner. He hasn't been in one normal match ever since. Exile and Roadblock reach ringside and Exile grabs a mic and starts to talk).

Exile: I wanna make something clear here!! I won't fight this chump in the ring here tonight!!! (the crowd starts to boooo) Nah, nah be quiet for a sec. I know one thing, I am not stepping in the ring with that no-good hellhound, who luckily captured MY Internet Title. Everybody knows that that belt belongs around my waist. Cerberus, you just don't deserve it. But you also aren't worth the energy to step in the ring with you here. (the crowd booos even more).

Exile: So I will use my power as a commisioner and instead my mate Roadblock will take my place tonight. While I get myself a real opponent next week in the first round of the tournament. How does that sound!!!! booooooo). Roadblock get in that ring and kick his ass will you.

(At that moment Damned if I do starts to play and its Prez Cazzo who comes out. The crowd cheers him on and he grabs a mic after he reached ringside).

Prez Cazzo: Exile, Exile, Exile, when are you finally gonna step back in that ring and wrestle for a change!!! It hasn't been unnoticed to me that you are only using the commisioner function in your own favour or to help your friends. Thats wrong, thats totally wrong. And if you would look more closely at your contract as a commisioner you should have read that under paragraph 15a it says that at all point you have to be objective in every manner. And thats my friend, one thing you haven't been doing. So therefore as of now I am firing you as a commisioner. You broke the rules yourself and as of this point the commisioner contract isn't worht anything.

(The crowd starts to cheer big time, while Exile seems to get more angry and angry).

Exile: You can't do that!!!!!

Prez Cazzo: I just did, sport.

(Exile then wants to climb in the ring to face Freak Cerberus).

Prez Cazzo: Hey, what are you doing, Exile?

Exile: I am getting in the ring for my first round match in the tournament.

Prez Cazzo: Wow wow wait a minute here. Just minutes ago you said that Roadblock was gonna take your spot in this match. And that decision is still legal as that was your last decision as a commisioner. So sorry Exile not match for you.

Exile: Wait, but I am still in the tournament right??

Prez Cazzo: I should say no coz you stepped back from this match yourself. But hey I got an offer for you. Next week on Venom, you will get the chance to qualify yourself for the first round of the tournament. So if you win that match you will have to fight in the first round right after. Yeah that sounds good to me. And yeah to make things even more special. The person you have to fight in that qualifying match is none other than..........your good friend JAWZ.

JP: WHATTTT!!!! WOW, thats something!!!

(Exile can't believe it, he can't believe that with his action tonight he lost his function as a commisioner and that he also almost eliminated himself out of the tournament. But now he has to fight his good friend Jawz to even qualify for the tournament. And if he wins he has to fight the first round match right after his qualifying one. Exile still can't believe it and he pushes Prez Cazzo and then decides to leave ringside).

JP: He had that one coming!!!

ND: Still not fair I think though.

JP: Ofcourse its fair Neil. After all the things he did. But let us check whats going on in the ring. Its Cerberus and Roadblock in it in this first round match. Roadblock is not even looking at Cerberus. He is looking at Exile who is walking out of ringside. Ding ding ding, the bell rings and Cerberus grabs Roadblock from behind and he goes for a rollup into a pin and. 1.................2.................3................yeahhhhh very quick win by Freak Destroyer Cerberus who granted himself a spot in the second round!!!!

(Commercials).

Winner: Freak Destroyer Cerberus


(We come back from commercials and we are backstage and we see Mauler sitting on a large red leather sofa with Bill Carty sitting opposite on a red armchair)

BC: Ok Mauler; Tonight you will be facing Danny Christ, you say yourself that you dont really have a chance. Have you had a change of opinion at all?

Mauler: No Bill not really, I have got a bit more confident but still I believe that Danny will win. If I do win then it will come as a great surprise.

BC: Ok. Can I ask you some personal questions?

Mauler: Go on then.

BC: Ok. How old is your girlfriend Rachel?

Mauler: Not really personal. But shes 22.

BC: Ok. How long have you been going out.

Mauler: About a year. I started dating her just before I joined XPCW.

BC: Ok do you have any kids.

Mauler: Yes two twins, they are 3 months old. Adam and William. Named after two friends.

BC: Ok cool. Right then. Back to wrestling. Who is your wrestling idol?

Mauler: Hmmm thats a tough one. Maybe The Undertaker or Brett Hart. I dont really have one though. So just anyone that did well.

BC: Which of the big federations did you watch before you became an EWCL wrestler?

Mauler: To tell the truth I never watched the big feds. I watched the small ones. The state feds. Such as ASW, Alaskan State Wrestling. Watching Eskimos wrestling in the snow is much for entertaining then Watching 600lb Yokozuna body Splash The Undertaker.

BC: Wow, tell me more about these Eskimo matches.

Mauler: Well Not just now, I 've got a feeling you may see one very soon.

BC: Aw....ok. So how does EWCL compare to other feds?

Mauler: The best. XPCW was probably a really good fed for me aswell but I kinda forgot about that fed. I can only remember I was very close to winning a tournament for their second highest title. WEWA Was ok aswell but Barrow closed that so it cant be compared. Anyways Bill I'll have to go get ready for possibly the hardest match of my life. Well behind the ladder match with Shane Johnson and my match with Cazzo.

(Camera fades out).


Danny Christ vs. The Mauler - 1st Round Tournament

JP: Oooh Mauler doing an interview moments before he has to fight huh. Thats some preparation allright. He hasn't been in action in a while, but tonight he makes his comeback in the ring and fights in the first round of the tournament against Danny Christ.

ND: Against Miraculous Danny Christ!!!

JP: So who do you think is gonna win this match, Neil?

ND: Duh!! There's no doubt about it that Danny Christ is gonna win. No doubt about it!!

JP: I knew you were gonna say that.

(At that moment Ms. Jackson starts to play and The Mauler comes up. He appears from behind the curtains and starts to walk to the ring. Seconds after it is Sparhawk who shows up and he charges into Mauler and bulldogs him into the concrete floor. He then jumps on top of Mauler and starts to shout at him. "Did you write that on my mirror??!?? Did you??!!??").

JP: He thinks it was the Mauler who wrote that stuff on his mirror in his lockkerroom.

ND: It could be the case though. Mauler always was into pulling stunts like that. Remember that he was the painted man of the Legion who attacked everyone.

(Mauler shouts out no and finally Sparhawk decides to let go and he leaves ringside. Mauler is still laying on the concrete when Don't hate me starts to blare over the speakers).

ND: YESS!!

(Danny Christ comes running out alone. He left his girlfriend in the back. Christ sees Mauler laying on the concrete, but he doesn't give Mauler the time to get back up. Christ grabs Mauler by the head and starts handing out lefts and rights. But Mauler doesn't go down. Christ then grabs Mauler by the head and walks over to the ring and smashes Maulers head into the steel ringpost).

ND: What a begin of this match!!!

JP: Christ is still holding Mauler and again he smashes his head into the ringpost. Mauler is seeing stars I think. Christ now irish whips Mauler into the ringsteps and he flies in shoulderfirst. Christ charges in, but Mauler moves out of the way and Christ flies shoulderfirst into the ringsteps himself now. Mauler back up and he kicks Christ to the head. Mauler checks under the ring and from under it he grabs a table.

ND: Whats he doing there? Mauler is setting the table up on the concrete floor. Mauler now goes over to Jay Blue's and pushes him of his chair. Mauler then grabs the steelchair and folds it up. He goes over to Christ and whack!!! He smacks the steelchair into the head of Christ. There ought to be a law, this is illegal!!!!

JP: Both men haven't even been in the ring yet, Neil. This match hasn't even officially started yet. Mauler just nailed Christ with that steelchair and Christ went out like a candle. Mauler drops the chair and he picks Christ up and he lays him flat on the table. Now its Mauler who climbs the apron and now he starts to climb the topturnbuckle. He is on top now and OOOOOHH he dives off with a legdrop and lands on Christ and they go through the table to the concrete!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!

ND Somebody check if Christ is ok, allright.

JP: Both men are on the floor now, even Mauler is trying to recover from that impact. But it is Mauler who is the first to get up after a few seconds. He picks up the knocked out Christ and rolls him in the ring and follows in. Now the bell rings and the match has officially started now. Mauler goes for the pin. 1.............2..................very late kickout by Christ. Mauler is thinking, how it is possible that Christ got out of that.

ND: Mauler picks Christ up and sends him in the ropes and when he comes off he clotheslines him to the mat. Again Mauler goes for the pin, but again he only gets a two count. Mauler can't believe it. He lifts Christ up for a piledriver and piledrives him to the mat. For the third time Mauler goes for the pin. 1..........2.............foot on the rope. Mauler is furious here, he gets up and stomps Christ in the head for about 5 times.

JP: Mauler then decides to climb the topturnbuckle. He's on top and he dives of to splash Christ, but oooooh Christ lifts his knees up at the last moment!!! Mauler flew right into the knees!!!! This could be the turn of the match. Mauler looks like he has broken one or more ribs here. Christ gets to his feet and he picks Mauler up and pokes him in the eye. Christ then whips Mauler into a corner and charges right in after and splashes on top of him.

ND: Mauler is resting in the corner and Christ steps on the bottom ropes and starts to punch Mauler in the head. 1.......2.......3.......4.......5........6.......7........8......9..........10.......10 punches after eachother, excellent. Christ steps down of the ropes and Mauler falls face first to the mat. Christ doesn't hesitate and immediately hooks in an anklelock. Mauler is screaming it out from the pain, but he refuses to tap out.

JP: Mauler is trying to reach for the ropes now, but Christ isn't letting him. Just when Mauler almost reached the ropes, Christ drags Mauler back to the middle of the ring. Oooh man Mauler almost is going unconscious here from the pain, but he isn't tapping out, unbelievable. Christ decides to let go of the anklelock himself and he gets back up. Christ follows that up with stomping the hurt ankle.

ND: Mauler crawls over to the ropes now and uses the ropes to get back to his feet. He sees Christ charging in, and he counters by backdropping Christ over the toprope to the outside!!! Mauler falls back to one knee and he is feeling his ankle. He got the pain in his eyes and he can hardly walk straight. On the outside we see Christ getting back to his feet and he now rolls himself back into the ring.

JP: You see if Mauler was in good shape he would have taken advantage of this situation and kick the shit out of Christ on the outside, but he stayed in coz of that hurt ankle. Mauler limps over to Christ now and picks him up, but oooh lowblow by Christ. Christ back up and ooooh out of nowhere the SIGN OFF!!!! He executed his finisher!!!! Christ goes for the pin now. 1.........2...........3..........yeah another wrestler on to the second round.

ND: Yep and Danny Christ is still undefeated in the EWCL!!!

JP: And on another note, this could have been the last thing we have seen of the Mauler here in the EWCL. Rumours going that he has signed to another federation as of late and starting there next week.

(Commercials)

Winner: Danny Christ


JP: I believe we're about to have a few words from the 'Whole G*ddamn Show' The Rage. Let's go to Stephanie in the back.

ND: Yes. yes, please lets go to Stephanie!

(The scene opens on Stephanie Sprinkler, standing somewhere in the bowels of the arena, outside a plain door with the name 'Rage' emblazoned upon it. Attired in a low-cut blue, shimmering top, her large, heaving bosom stretches precariously at the thin, near-transparent material of her top, threatening to burst out at any given moment. Her lush curls fall about her slim but defined shoulders, and she flashes the camera that dental-dream smile before glancing back at the door. The fans in the arena explode into cheers for the stunning interviewer, and she grins vainly.)

('Thanks John. We're just about to see if we can get a few words with one half of the new Tag Team Champions. Lets see if The Rage is at home.' Stephanie raps upon the door with her delicate knuckles, and a deep voice is heard to answer from within. With a smile for the camera, she opens the door and she and the cameraman enter.)

(Inside, the dressing room is unexceptional, a result of the EWCL policy which prohibits any star from gaining overly preferential treatment at the hands of the industry brass. It is a policy which has kept everybody happy, thus far. A small monitor rests upon a stand in one corner, and upon the short table next to it lays a platter of fruit and vegetables and a jug of water. A leather couch sits in the opposite corner, and upon the brown divan rests The Rage, feet up upon the edge of the table and bottle of P30 resting in his hand upon the edge of armrest. The Tag Title lies draped unceremonially upon the empty side of the lounge, and The Rage glances up at Stephanie as she enters and sighs.)

('Did you get lost on the way to make-up Steph?')

(Stephanie blinks a couple of times, then shakes her head slowly, 'No. uhm Rage, we thought we might get a few words with you. you know, about the title, the tournament and such?')

(O'Connor rolls his eyes and leaning over lethargically, he drags the title from the seat and onto his lap before patting the empty seat and giving her a patient smile. She grins broadly and sits down, readjusting her extremely short skirt.) ('Rage, first of all, how does it feel to be one half of the new Tag Team Champions?')

(The Rage sniffs, 'Am I? Hell, I didn't even realise! It's not like I'm being given a chance to defend it or anything. So that's why they handed me this belt? Ah, it's all falling into place now.')

(Stephanie frowns, 'I sense a little sarcasm there Rage..')

('Do you Steph? I can't imagine where you're getting that from? Must be your keen female intuition.')

('Well, I do Mister.' Stephanie shakes her head and offers the large wrestler a winning smile, 'So, who do you think will go on to win this tournament?')

(The Rage leans over, 'I. don't. care. Did you see The Rage's name on the lists Steph? Did you? Did you see it? Was it there?')

(Blinking, Stephanie stumbles over her words, 'Uhm. I..')

('No you didn't see it! You didn't see it 'cos it wasn't there! I'm not in the damn tournament Stephanie! Therefore, do you really imagine I want to talk about which of these circus clowns is going to win that Universal Title?! Do you?!')

('I guess not.')

('You guess right.')

(Stephanie takes a deep breath and puts on her most serious 'real reporter' face, 'You've been taking a lot of flack from Danny Christ. How do you respond?')

(The Rage gives her a puzzled look, 'Who?')

(Stephanie blinks again, having to run back through her lines in her head. 'Danny Christ.')

(She receives a raised eyebrow in response, 'Danny Christ? Who is Danny Christ? Is he the janitor here? I gave that guy a shirt, but he..')

(Stephanie frowns, butting in, 'No. Danny Christ is an EWCL superstar. He's been verbally bashing you all week.')

(The Rage takes a sip from his protein drink and shakes his head slightly as he swallows, 'Nope. don't know him. Are you sure he's a wrestler here?')

('Danny Christ is an up-and-coming star here in the EWCL' Stephanie huffs in distress.)

(The Rage shrugs, 'Maybe you got the name wrong Princess. Anyway, do you have any other questions?')

(Stephanie sighs resignedly, 'Well. what about Achilles. and Triple X? How can you countenance what you did to them?')

('I don't.' The Rage rubs at his eyes and flashes a glance at the monitor, 'I'm not making any excuses for what I did. I told you, I told Cazzo, I told everyone. They got what they deserved, and if I had the chance, I'd do it all again. You see, in this life there are certain things you don't mess with. Achilles? Well, he messed with one, and now he's finished. Triple X just interfered with the wrong guy in the wrong match.')

(Stephanie nods slightly, 'But you're paying for it now, aren't you?')

('Yeah I'm paying for it. Who gives a crap? Every action we take in life has consequences. I'm willing to live with mine. for a time. But I'll tell you what. that time is coming to an end. I told everyone when I got here that the Revelation was at hand. That wasn't just a pretty grouping of words to scrawl on a best-selling t-shirt Princess. And everyone's going to realise that sooner or later. But you want a tip?')

(Stephanie leans forward, showing an ample amount of cleavage to which The Rage exercises an applaudable amount of self-control by not looking into. 'Sure.')

(The Rage smiles grimly, his dark green eyes flashing with untold intensity, 'I'd bet on sooner if I was you.')

(Stephanie stares at the man for a moment, lost in his gaze, before shaking it off and turning to the camera, 'Ah. John, Neil. back to you guys.')

(The scene returns to John and Neil.)

JP: Powerful words from the fastest up-and-comer in the sport today.

ND: I don't know. he'd have to be pretty fast to have 'up and came' faster than I did when she bent over like..

JP: Neil! This show is watched by children!

ND: But did you see those..

JP: I did. and I'll be getting the tape later on. But that's just not appropriate conversation at this hour!

ND: *Sigh*

JP: We'll be back momentarily folks.

(Cut to a Commercial)


Dan Prohibition(c) vs. Alexander Glory - 1st Round Tournament - Prime Time Title

JP: Now we are gonna have a match with alot at stake here. Not only is this a match in the first round of the tournament. Not only is this match for the Prime Time Title. This match is also personal. The people involved Dan Prohibition and Alexander Glory were at eachothers throat over last week and Glory holds Dan responsible for the death of his girlfriend.

ND: I wouldn't want to stand in Dan's or Lydia's shoes right now.

JP: Same here. And I think that Dan already made sure that Lydia was safe. He asked his tagteampartner The Rage to keep an eye on here. But I wonder if he's gonna do that as he made perfectly clear last week that he and Dan are close friends now. But we'll see.

(Then Sober by Tool starts to play and Alexander Glory comes walking out. He looks different than we know from the past, but like in the past the crowd is almost speechless when he comes out. He takes his time to make it to the ring, when he reaches the ring he circles it one time and then uses the ringsteps to enter the ring).

(Then One step closer starts to play and Dan Prohibition comes walking out. He got the Prime Time Title around his waist and his stopsign in his hand and staplegun in the other hand. When he is almost at ringside we see that Lydia comes running out from behind the curtains down the aisle. Dan is surprised to see her there as he asked The Rage to keep an eye on her. But she still made it out here. Dan is trying to convince Lydia to leave ringside).

ND: Hah, girls, they always get you in trouble. Remember that it was Lydia who started it all that Glory is after Dan.

JP: Yeah girls, can't live with them, can't live without them.

ND: Dan is still trying to convince Lydia in leaving, but meanwhile Glory climbed out of the ring and he comes up from behind Dan and Lydia and he grabs both of their head and bammmmm he ramms them into eachother!!!! OOOH MYYYYY GODDDDDDDD!!! Did you see that!!!!!! Dan and Lydia both go down to the concrete floor!!! Glory bends over Lydia now and starts to yell at her!!!

JP: Glory now slaps Lydia in the face and he picks her up and pusher her and continues to yell at her. You can see that Lydia is in pain and is terrified. Glory then picks up Lydia and lifts her up and he throws her over the guardrail into the crowd!!! OOOOOOH NOOOOOOOO!!!! Glory goes over to the guardrail now, but before he can do anything it is Dan who comes up from behind him and nails him in the head with his stopsign.

ND: Glory falls back to one knee, and Dan uses his stopsign one more time to ramm into Glory's head. This time Glory goes down to the concrete floor. Now it is Dan who bends over Glory and starts to yell and swear at him. He then climbs over the guardrail and checks how Lydia is doing. Lydia seems to be unconscious and she doesn't look good from what Glory did to her. Dan is motioning for a medical team and a stretcher.

JP: From the back we see that medics are making their way to the ring to help Lydia. In the meantime Dan focusses on Glory again and rolls him back into the ring and follows in after. Dan is trying to keep Glory busy to the medics can take Lydia out of there. And it seems like his plan is working as they are taking the still unconscious Lydia out of ringside. Dan is aware of that now so now he can put all his energy in Glory.

ND: Dan picks Glory up slaps him in the face and follows that up with a few chops to the chest. Glory's chest almost turned red all the way. Dan grabs Glory by the arm and whips him in the ropes, he comes off and ooh spinning neckbreaker by Dan. Dan doesn't stop and he kicks Glory to the head several times. Dan grabs Glory by the hair and sends him in the ropes one more time and this time he follows it up with a superkick. And again Glory goes to the mat.

JP: Dan now sets Glory up for a piledriver. He lifts him Glory up, but he doesn't seem to be able to execute it. Dan tries agian, but he can't execute it and Glory counters with backdropping Dan to the mat. Glory bounces in the ropes and comes off and kneedrops on Dan. Glory takes a few moments to recover and then he picks Dan up and sets him up for a double arm underhook suplex and executes it.

ND: Glory grabs Dan again and now its his turn to slap his opponent in the face. Glory then whips Dan in the ropes, Dan comes off and oooooh yeah overhead belly to belly suplex by Glory!!!! That was an awesome move!!! Again he picks Dan up and this time he executes a regular suplex. Glory goes for the cover. 1........2......but Dan kicks out. Glory grabs Dan by his head and sends him in the ropes, Dan comes off and counters and hooks in a ddt and performs it.

JP: Oh yeah good comeback by the Hardcore Saint. Dan quickly goes to the toprope now. He climbs on the topturnbuckle and yeahhh he dives off for his Flying Guilliotine!!!! And Glory is out!!!! What a move by Dan!!! Dan goes for the pin now. 1.........2..........but a late kickout by Glory. Dan stays on top of Glory and starts handing out a couple of punches. He then grabs Glory's head and ramms it into the mat for 6 times.

ND: Dan jumps back to his feet and he climbs the second turnbuckle and he dives of for an elbow drop on Glory and hits it!!! Again he goes for the pin, but again he only gets a two count. For a second Dan looks down the aisle, but there is no sight of Lydia anymore. He then turns back towards Glory, but Glory uses that second of loss of concentration and he kicks Dan in the gut and picks Dan up and executes a northern lights suplex.

JP: Glory really into the suplexes here. Glory stomps Dan in the chestarea and the head and then he hooks in a sharpshooter on Dan. Glory hooked it in right, but Dan is not too far away from the ropes. Slowly he drags himself over to the ropes, inch by inch. Dan then grabs the ropes and the ref is making Glory break the sharpshooter hold. But Glory refuses to let go and it seems like he is even hooking it in stronger. We see Dan in severe pain. Glory is shouting it out, "This is for my girl".

ND: Dan is screaming aswell now, screaming from the pain. The ref is doing everything he can to make Glory break the hold and finallly he manages to do so. Glory stares at the ref for a sec but then concentrates on Dan again. He grabs Dan and sends him in the ropes and when he comes off he flapjacks him and Dan flies facefirst into the mat. Glory goes for the leg again and he hooks the sharpshooter in again!!!

JP: But this time Dan kicks out right away, before Glory could lock it in right. Glory too focussed now on hurting Dan instead of finishing it all. Glory picks Dan up, but Dan counters with lowblowing Glory in the midsection. Dan bounces back in the ropes and comes back and kicks Glory in the gut one more time. Dan grabs Glory and hooks in a downward spiral and executes it. YEAH!!! Dan goes for the pin. 1...........2...............but a late kickout by Glory.

ND: Dan grabs Glory by the head and he sends him into a corner. Dan charges in after, but Glory moves out of the way in time and Dan flies face first in the corner. Glory grabs Dan's head right away and ramms it into the turnbuckle for about 6 times. Glory follows that up with german suplexing Dan to the mat. Glory goes for the pin now. 1...........2..........noooo kickout by Dan. This is not over yet. Glory gets up and he takes a deep breath.

JP: Glory is waiting for Dan to get up. It looks like Glory is preparing for something. I think he is preparing himself for the Fate Sealed. Thats his new finishing move, namely a Tazzmission. Dan slowly gets back to his feet and ooooh yeahh Glory comes up from behind and wants to hook the Fate Sealed. But ooooooh before he can, Dan countered with an elbow. Dan follows that right away kicking Glory to the stomach and OOOOOOOH hooking in the Straight Edge Spike himself now!!!

ND: Dan hooked in the Straight Edge Spike and he executes it!!!!!!! OH MY GODDDD!!!! This is it, this has got to be it. Dan is gonna beat Glory on his comeback. Dan goes for the cover. 1....................2...........................but OOOOOH NOOOOO Glory kicked out one fraction before the threecount. Glory kicked out of the Straight Edge Spike!!!! Unbelievable!!!! How did he do that?? Dan is just standing there motionless, he don't know how this could happen.

JP: Dan then picks up Glory and decides to hook in the Straight Edge Spike one more time. But Glory counters and backdrops Dan to the mat!!! Glory quickly to his feet and Glory got the upperhand and OOOOOOOH YEAHHHHH FATE SEALED!!!!!! He hooked in his Tazzmission!!!!! And the ref looks at Dan and he taps out!!! Dan taps out and this match is over!!!! Alexander Glory won on his return and beat none other than Dan Prohibition.

ND: So Glory goes on to the second round, but besides that he is the new Prime Time Champion!!!! What a return of this man!!! We see that Dan is still knocked out on the mat, while Glory got a hold of a mic. Lets hear what he has to say.

Glory: Dan, this was the culmination. This was were I told you I would be standing. With the Prime Time championship. As I told you, I would be returning to not only take this title from you Dan, now I've got a bigger goal. The Universal title. When the tournament begins, none shall oppose. All shall bear witness to the fact that Alexander Glory has once again come. All shall realise the truth in these words. Cazzo, Exile, Punisher, none shall stop me in the quest that is mine. The long road that will lead me to the Universal title.

Voice from speakers: I do believe you left out a name.

Glory narrows his eyes.

Glory: Did I?

Voice: Of course, maybe you were too blind to realize it.

(Glory sneers looking around the arena)

Voice: Don't bother looking, you won't be able to see me.

Glory: Then since I won't be able to see you, how about letting the world know who you are? Perhaps you'll realize just whom you're interrupting.

(The lights dim, and flames shoot from either side of the ramp. The lights then turn brighter and brighter as the opening riffs of Megadeth's cover of "Angry Again" blasts through the arena. "The more of you that I inspect, the more of me I see reflect. The more the words flow from your lips, the more the mask you wear it rips." The fans look to the entraceway. "But when I seek out your voice, my ears are overcome with noise. You show and tell with greatest ease, raving impossibilities." Glory smirks, leaning in the far corner of the ring, also looking toward the front "Engaged in crime, I grasp my throat. In rage my mind starts to smoke. Enfore a mental overload, angry again, angry again, angry...")

(Finally, emerging from the entrance, is none other than Kritical Kondition, dressed in his normal tights and a Royal Family t-shirt. He has a mic in tow, staring at Glory).

KK: I know damn well who I'm interrupting.

(Glory sneers as he stares up at Kritical Kondition).

Glory: So you've finally come out of hiding. You do realize you're the reason I'm here.

KK: How thoughtful. You failed to send me a Hallmark card.

Glory: It's just not my style. You know that.

KK: This divide in our relationship hurts me deeply.

(He advances toward the ring.)

Glory: Divide? There is no divide. You're the only person in this federation I give a damn about. The only one who was able to defeat me. You knew I would return.

KK: Big, bad Prime Time Champion, are we? Egotistical, arrogant Alexander Glory. It's like you never left.

(Glory smirks)

Glory: I should have never left. I can see that your ego has inflated a bit as well. I guess however you deserve that, being the only man to defeat me.

KK: Sinking the Titantic does that to a man, Alexander.

Glory: You didn't sink the Titanic. You defeated a person. We're all people. Now however, the games stakes have been raised.

(KK reaches the apron of the ring and looks up at Glory. Glory motions for him to enter).

KK: I did what people thought was impossible. Maybe my ego has inflated. But that's so cliche. But do tell, what makes the stakes different now?

(He steps on the apron and stays on the outside of the ropes. Glory walks over and stares into his eyes, then pulls the ropes apart.)

Glory: Neither of us have the Universal title. This isn't about gold. You only have one win on me. I know you've heard the talk in the back. Perhaps the word lucky rings a bell.

(Kondition kicks the rope back up, looking at Glory.)

KK: You know damn well that wasn't luck. Somehow I would have even thought that fucking ignorant statement was somehow below you.

Glory: Never said I said it. Perhaps you should hear what those guys in the back really think of you.

KK: And I should care what they think?

Glory: Some of them are pretty close to you. Thats why I stand alone. Because I don't care.

KK: You tried that once, Glory. A poorly strategized attempt to make me question those who are close to me.

Glory: You don't have to listen to me. Just listen to what I'm telling you. I came back for you. I'm not stopping until I get what I came for It's not about the Universal title, that will be an added bonus. It's about you and me.

KK: Well since you were ignorant to my return, maybe you didn't know that I too, am entering the tournament.

(Glory turns slowly and faces the other direction. Holding his arms out, he simply stands there. Kondition slowly enters the ring and walks around to the direction in which he's facing.)

Glory: I knew you couldn't attack me.

KK: It would be below me to fight a man whose back is turned.

(Glory reaches forward and grabs him. Starring into his eyes, Glory then begins to laugh.)

KK: Am I funny? I amuse you quite a bit to be such a large part of your shattered ego. You are nothing like me.

(Glory smirks) Glory: Don't you realize that's where you're wrong?

KK: Do enlighten me.

(Glory lets go and smiles)

Glory: You came back didn't you?

KK: Apparently.

Glory: Then you have your answer. You just don't realize it yet.

KK: Is everything a game with you?

Glory: For the first time my friend, this won't be a game.

KK: That's the most intelligent thing I have ever heard you admit.

Glory: You've heard me say more. You just brushed it off.

KK: I let it consume me. I hate to bruise your ego again, but you don't know how I reacted.

Glory: It didn't consume you. It made you hungry. It made you want to win. Did you want to win before that? Losing to Bull Dozer.

KK: I wanted to win, but not that badly. You did drive me. But the consumption only intensified my need to hurt you. And Bull Dozer? You bring up the past? Let us not forget your loss to Punisher.

(Glory begins to laugh...)

Glory: Very quick to attempt to deflect the issue.

KK: Very quick to rehash, though, are we not?

Glory: I'm here now though. Hurt me.

KK: No, see, I don't follow you. I refuse to fall into another one of your traps. I pave my own path, forge my own clearing. It's what you want me to do, and I refuse.

Glory: Thats where you're wrong. Don't see yet, I don't want a trap. I'm not after a game. I'm simply after you. I simply have begun hunting you.

KK: I REFUSE IT GLORY!!!! I WILL NOT SUCCUMB TO YOUR CHILDISH TRICKS!!

Glory: For what you would swear is a childish trick, it has ruffled your feathers, hasn't it? I am playing no trick. I don't want a game.

(Glory puts his hand on KK's shoulder).

Glory: I just came back for you. When I'm done, I'll probably leave again. Disappear into the nothing.

(KK, in a quick motion, sweeps his hand off his shoulder and into a simple wristlock.)

Glory: Break it.

(KK stares at Glory and shoves his hand away)

Glory: That is the diffrence between you and I. I would have broken the arm. You see, you still haven't stepped up. You haven't realized what I did long ago. Until you do. You will never be able to claim your place among the elite.

KK: And if this weren't a game, you would tell me exactly what you mean.

(Glory smiles)

KK: Story time, Alex. Inform everyone. I'm sure they would love to know.

Glory: My contract was torn up in my face after my loss to you. Did you know that?

KK: No I did not.

Glory: Did you know that the only reason Cazzo even let me back in was to take apart the family.

KK: ....No.

Glory: I didn't give a damn about the family. Exile, You, Joe and Shane. None of you meant anything. I played the part of the puppet and then Cazzo turned on me. You see, without me, you wouldn't have had that fire. You wouldn't have wanted to defeat me. Then you and I brought the EWCL to it's most succesfull time in history. Our fued was the biggest ever in the EWCL.

KK: I realize they meant nothing. Eric is the one who took advantage of you, not me. I told you how it was and pulled no punches.

Glory: What did you ever recieve for pulling this company back from bankruptcy?

(Kondition only stares at Glory)

Glory: Thats what I thought.

(Glory turns slowly then stops.)

Glory: I came back for you. You were the only one to ever defeat me. It's not about ego. It's all about the final confrontation.

KK: Why should I give you the chance to prove yourself again? How do I owe you that?

(Glory smiles and takes a step towards the ropes.)

Glory: You don't. You will though.

KK: You're right. I will. However, you do know we're on opposite sides of the brackets. So the only way we'll face each other is in the finals.

(Glory smirks and steps through the ropes.)

Glory: Do you think that's by accident?

KK: No, but why do what Eric wants?

Glory: Who were the biggest draws ever? Who shot the ratings up? I don't want what Cazzo wants.

KK: You do realize that you're going to have to earn your third shot at me.

Glory: I simply want what you got when I refused to cover you after our first match. Another chance.

(Kondition places his hand on the Prime Time belt on Glory's shoulder)

Glory: If I don't make it to you, well then I don't deserve it, do I?

(Glory looks back.)

KK: You will make it, my friend. But I'm asking you to put up your belt along with the Universal title.

(Glory smiles and turns. Laying the belt on the mat infront of Kritical. Glory nods.)

Glory: It will be on the line every match until I get to you. Because I will get to you.

(Kondition nods and steps out of the ropes.Glory turns and watches Kritical)

Glory: You and I..we're the only ones you realize that?

KK: Yeah. Don't worry about me, though. Worry about the obstacles presented in front of you.

(Glory smiles).

Glory: Just remember what you said to me. Make sure you make it to the end of the tournament.

KK: Would you have it any other way?

(Kondition tosses the microphone across the ring and steps out of the ropes. He hops off the apron and makes his way to the back.)

JP: Holy shit!!! Kritical Kondition is back aswell!!! And it seems that these two are going after eachother again and are gonna face eachother at Survivor!!! Only one thing I want to make clear though is that the schedule of the tournament isn't clear. It doesn't mean that the people who wrestled today are on one side of the brackets and that the people who wrestle next week in the first round are on the other side of the brackets.

ND: But just picture what a tournament we got here. Oh man!!! Unbelievable!!!

JP: I know, anyway tonight we saw Sparhawk, Cerberus, Danny Christ and Alexander Glory go on to the second round. Tune in next week to see who the other 4 are gonna be. So for now, good bye!!!!

(Camera fades out)

Winner: Alexander Glory
