The Sault St. Marie Press Conference
Sault St. Marie - Hello everyone. Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Years. Obviously, we welcome the new year with a big show. Nothing like starting off the year with a bang, and this year - 2010 - it's with Blizzard. It's almost fitting considering how the weather has treated us for the last few weeks.
[He smiles.]
Sault St. Marie - Well, I'm obviously out here to make a few announcements as we head into the first supercard of the year. First of all, I want to welcome our new set of reporters, who have joined us representing the World Wrestling Alliance. We are very thankful that you are here and really look forward to working with you and the WWA in 2010. Blizzard is our first show under the WWA umbrella. That doesn't mean anything is changing, but just a categorical change.
[He looks around and smiles again.]
Sault St. Marie - Just like how things went in the AWA for the last 8 months, we plan on working hard and earning top billing week in and week out. It's just here in the WWA, the competition is a bit stronger. Well, except for Dream. We have experience beating them in the ratings before, so I don't see them as a huge threat in 2010. But who knows, things can change, right?
[He shares a small laugh with the reporters.]
Sault St. Marie - But, regardless, we're going to be doing a few different things this show. Oh, before I get too far a head of myself, I do want to make the announcement that there is a change in the card. Hell Rell vs. Mo' Bad has been postponed. That will most likely move to Graveyard Shift next Thursday. We're working with Mo' Bad on a new contract and, after working with him and his agent, we decided that it would be best to hold off this match until a later date. But, we plan on securing him to a deal, and all signs point to a positive outcome to our next conversation.
[He looks down at his notes before turning back to the reporters.]
Sault St. Marie - But, moving back to Blizzard. A few different things we're going to be doing. First of all, John Squires and Stephen Squires, we were really impressed with how they built up some of the matches for El Dia '09, that we'll asking them to once again walk the crowd through each matchup, give their take on what's been going on with the competitors involved, and even give some predictions. Just adding a bit more flavor, a bit more commentary to the mix. We received some good feedback from our fans and feel like this is a good move for everyone involved.
[He clears his throat and takes a sip from his water.]
Sault St. Marie - Another thing we'll be doing is replaying a few matches from 2009. 2009 was a big year for us. One of the things that WMW has been good at in it's existence is staying under the radar. Part of the decision to partner with Sports Time Ohio and Apex Wrestling, and which ultimately drove us to begin talks with the WWA was to see what type of feedback and reaction we'd get from our peers and our fans. And, obviously, I think WWA signing us was an exclamation point at the end of the statement that we are a great group. We've got a great group of competitors here, and the organization is just top notch. Especially with a city like Cleveland supporting us for as long as they have, and continue to do so. Another sign that we were in fact, not only showing up on people's radars, but really pushing ourselves to the forefront of the business, was the fact that many of the national media outlets were reporting our news, and highlighting our achievements. So, at Blizzard, we're going to take a look back at 2009, we're going to take a look at what exactly people have been saying about us, and go over what it means to be a part of the WWA and to be nominated for so many awards by EWTorch.com.
[He looks at his notes again.]
Sault St. Marie - And, we normally try to keep the word "stipulations" out of our "heavy use" dictionary. But, seeing as this is Blizzard, our first supercard of 2010, it's nice to have an opportunity to put something more than a title on the line. Now, we do have 3 big matches planned and all have these types of stipulations. The first being Hecate defending the Heartlands Championship against Audrie McLaughlin and Damien Knight. Then, Jade defending the Shoot Championship against both Amariie and Jack Reynolds, and both the Great Lakes Championship and the Ace Superior Championship on the line in a mega 7-person fight.
[He smiles as he looks around.]
Sault St. Marie - We've got some special stipulations on these matches. In brief, the Heartlands Championship match will involve the idea of sacrifices. Obviously, Hecate will be sacrificing the title if she loses. Damien Knight has offered an additional $10,000 to take part in this match, a part from his $10,000 campaign at the end of the 2009. And Audrie McLaughlin will have her contract on the line. Money, Success and a Career, all on the line in this one. Unlike most "sacrifice" matches, both losers in this one will be forced to sacrifice. So, if Hecate can retain, Knight will lose his $10k and Audrie McLaughlin will lose her roster status.
[He looks at his notes.]
Sault St. Marie - The Shoot Championship is no different. Because of the partnership with the World Wrestling Alliance, it is important to not sit on old competition, but push for new competition. The Shoot Championship is the title based on tradition and honor. But, it would be dishonorable for us, as an organization, to keep pushing the same matches show after show. The Shoot Championship match at Blizzard 2010 will be held under gauntlet rules. Jack Reynolds and Amariie Maerthos will begin the match. When one of them is eliminated, the remaining competitor will then face off against Jade to determine the undisputed Shoot Champion. The person who is eliminated in the first part of the contest will not only lose their shot at regaining the title at Blizzard 2010, but will be banned from competing for the Shoot Championship again until 2011.
[He looks at his notes again as he takes a drink of water.]
Sault St. Marie - The Great Lakes and Ace Superior match will be in a very special match we're calling the "Frostbite Brawl". It's a multiple person match, obviously Kronin and Valora, defending their titles against Druscilla, Father Nathan, Ryven, AWS Man and Adam Pyre. You need to score a pinfall or submission to be eligible to climb the ladder and remove a briefcase representing one of the two titles. Person pinned or submitting will be sent to a penalty box for 2 minutes. The match will end when both titles have been claimed, at which point the briefcases will be opened and we'll find out who the GLC and ASC holders are.
Opening Commentary
El Dia '09 Replay: Hecate vs. Audrie McLaughlin
[The lights go out as "When The Storm Comes," by Blood For Blood hits and a single spot light shines down on the entrance ramp. Coming through the curtain, taped fists clenched, is Audrie McLaughlin. The black hood from her jacket keeps her face hidden as she makes her way down to the ring, shouldering past any fans reaching out to her. She moves up the steps and wipes her feet before entering the ring. She stands in the center of the ring and throws back her hood, making a cut throat motion.]
Jack Gene - Audrie McLaughlin has promised to win here tonight...no she's guaranteed that she will beat Hecate tonight.
Bill Hughes - Audrie is confident and cocky, but she might already be looking past Hecate to the shoot championship which could come back and cost her in this match.
Jack Gene - And with her promise that this would be the last time she was seen if she lost tonight, that puts alot of pressure on Audrie.
Bill Hughes - That was a very risky thing to promise, it hasn't worked out very well for others here. Maybe Audrie will be the one to break that streak.
Wayne Inkster - And currently making her way to the ring, hailing from Delphi, Greece and is the current reigning Heartlands Division Champion. She weighs in tonight at 158lbs and stands 5' 10" tall, she is a member of the Daughters of Darkness, the Dark Priestess herself......HECATE!!!
[The arena suddenly goes black as the opening cords to the "Dance of Curse from the Escaflowne soundtrack" starts to play through the arena as a single spot light shines down on a figure at the top of the entry ramp completely concealed by a full red cloak. The figure remains still for several moments as the song plays through the arena until it reaches a crescendo in the music, the figure then exploding into motion, tossing the cloak off and lifting one hand to the sky and looking up for a moment before dropping it's gaze to look at the wrestler in the ring. Dressed in gold and red, Hecate looks much like an ancient Greek with her red hot pants, gold top with a design like a Greek warrior's breastplate on it. On her arms she wears fingerless black and gold gloves, designed to look like bracers and her wrestling boots have been designed to look like leg greaves from the front and Hecate has applied warriors battle paint to her face for this match.]
Jack Gene - She changed her music again, she's going through as many theme songs as Valora is.
Bill Hughes - Well the two of them do hang out alot and train together, perhaps they are rubbing off on each other...I would pay to see that.
Jack Gene - Hecate is looking to reverse her recent luck against Audrie, so far in both confrontations, Hecate has come up short against Audrie.
Bill Hughes - She looks to be more focused that the last singles match these two had. This could turn into a very brutal match very quickly.
[Hecate starts to make her way down to the ring as the lights come back on, pausing about half way down the ramp and letting out a battle cry and pumping her fist in the air while Audrie paces back and forth in the ring with her eyes locked on Hecate. The crowd very mixed, some cheering for Audrie, some for Hecate but most seem to be booing both of the women as Hecate climbs into the ring. Referee Luna Pier making sure Audrie stays in her corner as Hecate climbs between the ropes and moves over to the center of the ring and kneels down on one knee, bowing her head a moment in a prayer before jumping up to both feet with another battle cry and moving to her corner. Both women come to the center of the ring where Luna Pier shows the Heartlands Belt to both wrestlers then lifts it above her head before one of the ring side attendants takes the belt out of the ring. When Luna Pier finishes going over the match instructions with both women, Hecate extends her hand towards Audrie who bats it aside and just glares at Hecate before Luna Pier sends both women back to their corners.]
Jack Gene - Wow! Hecate extended her hand in a pre-match gesture and Audrie just batted it away, Audrie certainly is setting the tone for this match even before it gets started.
Bill Hughes - Audrie said she didn't like Hecate at all, and has no intention of giving Hecate any respect it seems.
Jack Gene - What game plans do you think these two have going into the match, Audrie seems intent on showing she's a technical wrestler as well.
Bill Hughes - She might be, but might be better sticking with her brutal style that brought her to the match. Hecate doesn't have hard core experience and Audrie's already shown she can beat Hecate with that style.
Jack Gene - You don't think that Valora would have helped Hecate in that area?
Bill Hughes - Hardcore isn't something you can really teach a person, either they have that in them or they don't. Hecate is tough, no doubt about that and she can come at you with different styles, but the brutal hard core mentality is just not something she's used to. A grounded match favors Hecate a bit, but Audrie does have enough experience to keep up with Hecate long enough to overpower Hecate and put the champion away with her brutal butcher style.
Jack Gene - So you're predicting Audrie will win this match then. I can't believe that we actually agree with a pre-match prediction for once. Audrie seems to have Hecate's number and I think it will continue tonight. And Luna Pier is calling for the bell.
(Ring, ring, ring)
[Hecate and Audrie slowly move towards the center of the ring, Hecate lashing out with a quick low kick aimed at Audrie's leg but Audrie is able to dodge out of the way before the kick lands. Audrie backs up a moment and the two move towards each other again, this time Hecate feints the low leg kick but actually leaps forward and connects with an elbow to the side of Audrie's head, knocking Audrie back a few steps where she rubs the side of her face while glaring at Hecate. Finally the two lock up in the middle of the ring, jockeying back and forth for the advantage with neither one getting the edge for several moments but then Audrie gets the upper hand and breaks the lockup with a hammerlock on Hecate's left arm. Hecate twists to her right, sending the point of her elbow into Audrie's ribs over and over until Audrie breaks the hammerlock by yanking Hecate to the mat by the hair, earning Audrie a warning from Luna Pier which Audrie simply ignores.]
Jack Gene - Audrie once again showing her contempt not only for Hecate but perhaps for the WMW with her complete disregard of Luna Pier's warning after using the hair to take Hecate to the mat.
Bill Hughes - Expect to see alot more of that during this match. Audrie looks like she plans to do everything she can to belittle and ruin Hecate before destroying her. Just like she is doing now by standing on Hecate's hair and pulling her up by the arms.
[Audrie sports a sadistic smile as she pulls up on Hecate's arms, bringing a growl of pain from the prone woman, shoving downwards as she steps back at the count of four and a half, slamming the back of Hecate's head off the mat. As Hecate grabs the back of her head, Audrie runs and bounces off the ropes to deliver a running knee to the side of Hecate's head as the Champion start to get up, sending Hecate back down to the mat. As Hecate rolls over face down on the mat, Audrie steps up behind Hecate and grabs both her arms and lifts her up and placing one foot between Hecate's shoulder blades. Audrie looks around with a condescending look before lifting the foot off Hecate's shoulder blade's, kicking downwards to drive Hecate face first into the mat as Audrie releases her arms. Audrie continues her assault on the champion by lifting Hecate's legs up and grabbing the champion around the waist in a wheelbarrow hold, pausing a moment to smirk at the dazed champion, flipping her over backwards and slamming the back of Hecate's head and her shoulders into the mat with a wheelbarrow suplex. Audrie bridges up as she keeps her arms locked around Hecate's waist, turning the suplex into a pin attempt.]
Jack Gene - Good Lord! Audrie may be trying to knock Hecate out or give the champion a concussion. The Butcher is focusing on Hecate's head and neck and here is the first pin attempt of the match...Luna Pier in position...1...2...Hecate rolled her shoulder and broke up the pin attempt.
Bill Hughes - Nice series of high impact moves by Audrie there, but it's too early in the match to put Hecate away. Audrie needs to keep up with this style and keep wearing Hecate down.
[Audrie looks down at Hecate a moment before running and springing off the ropes, rushing back towards Hecate to connect with a short snap leg drop right across the back of Hecate's head. Rising to one knee, Audrie puts the shin of her leg across the back of Hecate's neck, grinding her head into the mat as Audrie paintbrushes the back of her head and yells down at Hecate as the champion thrashes underneath that leg. The Mexican fans are starting to cheer more for Hecate in response to Audrie's actions although Audrie is still getting a fair share of the cheers. Finally lifting off the champion, Audrie reaches down and pulls Hecate up by her hair, bending the champion over backwards and walks in place, spinning in a circle before drawing her thumb across her throat but before Audrie can lock in her Sweet Dreams submission hold, Hecate kicks off the mat and flips upwards to smash a knee into Audrie's face. The momentum of the flip and the impact of the knee sends Audrie down to the mat with Hecate landing on top of her before rolling off to the side.]
Jack Gene - The first real signs of life from the Champion, so far this match has been pretty much all Audrie, but that counter to the Sweet Dreams might have knocked some of Audrie's teeth out. Luna Pier is starting the ten count on both wrestlers.
Bill Hughes - That was a wicked knee strike by Hecate but lets see if she can follow it up with more offense. So far she's been about as effective as a blow up doll.
[Audrie gets to her knees as Hecate starts to get up, sliding over and clamping her arms around Hecate's head in a side head lock. Hecate grabs Audrie around the waste and turn, pulling Audrie over onto her back and shoulders but Audrie uses her legs to help roll back before Luna Pier can even get a one count. Hecate rolls her body once again, pressing Audrie's shoulders to the mat and gets a one count before Audrie is able roll back up to a sitting position. Audrie makes the grinding motion as she cinches down harder on the head lock but Hecate manages to get one knee under her and slips her head free while at the same time grabbing one of Audrie's arms and pulling it up into a hammer lock.]
Jack Gene - Audrie mixing up her attack, looks like she is going to try and keep Hecate grounded after that first overpowering assault.
Bill Hughes - I know Audrie holds Hecate and seemingly the rest of the WMW in utter contempt, but trying to out wrestle in a ground or mat match is like Valora trying to make Ryven tap out to a submission move. I think Audrie may be letting her contempt get the better of her judgment here.
[Audrie twists to the right then back to the left, trying to seek leverage to break the hammer lock, but Hecate just yanks up higher on the arm. Grimacing in pain from the hold, Audrie reaches down and pulls Hecate's leg up between her legs, sending the Champion off balance. As the pair falls to the mat, Audrie locks on a knee bar, trying to hyper-extend Hecate's knee. Hecate immediately counters by using her other leg, hooking it over her ankle and pulling back, bending her knee as she sits up and wraps Audrie's head under her arm, turning the knee bar into a headlock. Audrie release her attempt on the knee bar and as both wrestlers rise to their feet, wraps her arms around Hecate's waist and flips Hecate over her head in a release overhand belly to belly suplex.]
Bill Hughes - See that is what Audrie needs to stick with, the power and high impact moves. Hecate just has too many tricks to try to fight her in a ground or mat game.
Jack Gene - Hecate was able to almost instantly counter that knee bar attempt. Audrie will need to weaken Hecate alot more if she wants the ground game to be successful.
[As Hecate gets back to her feet, slowly after that suplex, Audrie moves up to hook her arms around Hecate's waist from behind this time but before Audrie can lift Hecate up into the suplex, Hecate locks her foot around Audrie's leg to block the attempt. Audrie goes for a second attempt at the belly to back suplex, but Hecate is able to block it again. Hecate then drops forward into a roll, using Audrie's position to off balance the challenger and as a result send Audrie stumbling ahead of her and through the ropes to the outside. Hecate wastes no time in using the ropes to spring board over the top and down onto Audrie in a splash which brings the loudest cheer from the audience so far this match. Referee Luna Pier warns both wrestlers to get back into the ring as the two of them slowly untangle themselves and get back to their feet.]
Jack Gene - And just like that Hecate is able to switch gears with that springboard splash over the top rope.
Bill Hughes - Hecate will need to keep mixing it up, keep Audrie off her toes but outside the ring favors Audrie more than it does Hecate.
[Hecate moves to get back into the ring, but Audrie stops her, pulling the champion back by the waistband of her hot pants and buries an elbow in the small of Hecate's back. Keeping a hold of Hecate's pants, Audrie delivers several more elbow shots to Hecate's lower back and spine before spinning Hecate around, grabbing one arm and whipping her across to crash head first into the ring steps. Quickly rolling in and out of the ring to break Luna Pier's ten count, Audrie stalks over to Hecate as the champion lays curled against the steel steps. Pulling Hecate up by her hair, Audrie grins as holds up Hecate's head to show the blood flowing down her face. Audrie looks down and actually spits in Hecate's face before going to whip her into the ring steps on the other side, but Hecate reverses it and sends Audrie face first into the ring steps. Wiping the blood from her eyes, Hecate rolls into the ring and moves up to the rope, gripping it with both hands and watching as Audrie starts to get back to her feet. Despite Luna Pier's warnings, Hecate uses the top rope to springboard over one more time, this time driving Audrie face first into the thin mats at ringside with a Hades Bound, bringing a huge cheer from the crowd.]
Jack Gene - OH!MY!GOD! Hecate just jumped over the top rope and connected with a Hades Bound on the outside! Neither woman is moving!
Bill Hughes - And these moronic dirty spics are eating it up. Don't they know that move would have hurt Hecate just as much as it did Audrie.
Jack Gene - Luna Pier is starting her ten count...Good!Lord! Both Hecate and Audrie are busted wide open now.
Bill Hughes - I told you this match would turn brutal, both women are starting to stir, but how much damage did Hecate do not only to Audrie with that move, but to herself.
[Luna is standing by the ropes, looking down on the bloody faces of Audrie and Hecate as the two fighters start pull themselves together....1....2....Hecate is holding her back as she uses the ring apron to pull herself up to one knee while Audrie rolls over onto all fours and puts one hand on the steel steps....3....4....Audrie is uses the steel steps to push herself upright, wiping the blood from her eyes as Hecate stumbles back against the opposite steel steps....5....6....with a growl, Audrie charges towards Hecate, looking to spear her into the ring post or the steps, but Hecate rolls into the ring and Audrie crashes hard into the steel steps. Hecate slips back out of the ring and pulls Audrie up to her feet, rolling the challenger into the ring before sliding in after her. Pulling Audrie to her feet, Hecate bends the challenger over and wraps her arms around Audrie's neck and then gripping her tights, lifting Audrie up and laying her feet over the top rope, walking backwards until just Audrie's feet are on the ropes. Lifting her arm and howling out a battle cry which seems to fire the fans up again, Hecate then drives her forearm into Audrie's shoulder blades while falling backwards to the mat, driving Audrie's bloody face into the mat. Hecate quickly rolls Audrie over, covering her for a pinfall. Luna Pier drops into position...1...2....Audrie manages to get her leg on the rope to break up the pinfall attempt.]
Jack Gene - Audrie tried to spear Hecate into the steel steps and it certainly backfired as Hecate was able to get out of the way. I'm not sure how Audrie managed to get her foot on the rope but she did after that brutal DDT move from Hecate.
Bill Hughes - Both women have been beaten up, are bloody messes, I am not sure how much more punishment either of these women can take. Hecate may have been right when she said the only way Audrie would get the title was to pry it out of her lifeless hands.
Jack Gene - What a minute, is that Mo' Bad at the top of the entrance ramp? What is he doing here...
Bill Hughes - Looks like he came out to watch the match, remember Hecate did distract him at Graveyard Shift 100 which lead to Amariie being victorious.
[Mo' Bad starts to walk down to ringside, he's wearing a Valora t-shirt and has one of her bandanna's on his head, strolling around the ring and jawing with some of the fans, most likely trying to push his Mo' Bad restructuring plan on them which they respond with by booing Mo' Bad loudly. Neither Audrie or Hecate seem to notice Mo' bad at ringside as Hecate pulls Audrie to her feet, hooking her up for another DDT, but this time hooking her arms under Audrie's knees and with a slight push off, flips over, bringing Audrie with her and driving the challengers head into the mat. Hecate rolls Audrie over and goes for another pinfall but Luna Pier isn't around to make the count.]
Jack Gene - Good!Lord!Almighty! That has to be it! Hecate just connected with her flip DDT on Audrie who looks to be completely out after that move. But where it the referee!?!
Bill Hughes - Luna Pier is busy with Mo' Bad, it looks like he is trying to point something out to her.
Jack Gene - Hecate just realizes that Luna is not there to make the count, she's up and moving over to the side of the ring where Luna and Mo' Bad are. Hecate is pointing back towards where Audrie is still down and making a pin count motion but Luna is pointing to Mo' Bad.
[As Luna and Hecate confront Mo' Bad, Audrie gets to her hands and knees and crawls over to the corner, pulling herself up and starts to take the pad off the top turnbuckle. Mo' Bad, meanwhile takes the Valora bandanna off and wipes himself down with it before balling it up and throwing it at Hecate who looks ready to come through the ropes, blood dripping all down her face and onto her ring attire. Hecate stops and with a grin on her face, bends down and picks the bandanna up, rolling it out and tying it around her forehead, the bandanna quickly getting soaked with Hecate's blood as Luna gives Mo' Bad one look and makes the over exaggerated ejection motion, sending Mo' Bad to the back amid cheers from the Mexican fans for both the ejection and Hecate donning Valora's bandanna. On the other side of the ring, Audrie finishes pulling the turnbuckle padding off and tosses it into the fans before pushing herself out of the corner.]
Jack Gene - The fans are going wild as Hecate puts on the Valora bandanna, consummating it with her own blood. Mo' Bad's attempt to get under Hecate's skin might have backfired.
Bill Hughes - Maybe not, it did distract both Hecate and Luna Pier, allowing Audrie to get the padding off the top turnbuckle, that could play a critical roll later in this match.
Jack Gene - Yeah what a way to potentially cheapen what has been a great match between these two so far.
[As security staff escorts Mo' Bad to the back after his ejection, Hecate turns back towards Audrie only get taken down by a running spear from the challenger. Audrie, her own face a crimson mask of fresh and dried blood, gets in the mount position and starts raining punches and elbows down on Hecate but the Greek wrestler quickly counters by bringing her legs up and around Audrie's arms, using them to pull Audrie down to the mat. The champion grabs a hold of one of Audrie's legs, wrapping her arm around the Achilles tendon and pressing down on the knee with her other hand. Audrie grimaces and growls out in pain before she is able to roll herself over and grab the ropes to break the hold.]
Jack Gene - What the hell, Hecate with what appeared to be a variation of an ankle lock that Audrie was very quick to find a way out of.
Bill Hughes - That is a Pankration Achilles leg lock, can very easily break a leg or rupture the Achilles tendon, Audrie was smart to get out of that hold quickly.
Jack Gene - Both wrestlers look like that are running on fumes though right now, Hecate's submission skills can really make the difference at this point.
Bill Hughes - Both of them need to start thinking about serious putting this match away. Audrie seems hesitant to go with her tried and true FYL.
Jack Gene - She must be figuring Amariie shared the counter to that with Hecate, which means Audrie must be thinking submission to beat Hecate at her own game or she has something else in store for the champion.
Bill Hughes - Audrie tried for the Sweet Dreams earlier in the match, so look for her to go for that again. Hecate, this is where she really is dangerous for she really does like to switch things up and she has moves that could really end it fast
Jack Gene - Like she did with Dess a few weeks ago. Audrie just ducked a spinning roundhouse kick by Hecate and connected with jumping Enziguri to the back of Hecate's head!
[Audrie wipes some more blood from her face, flicking it down onto the back and hair of Hecate before pulling the champion up to her feet, locking both of Hecate's arms in a double under hook and grinning sadistically as she starts into her series of knee strikes to the seemingly defenseless Hecate. After the first couple knee strikes, Hecate hops a little, just enough to hook both her legs around the back of Audrie's knees, shifting her weight and causing Audrie not to be able to strike with those knees. The counter overbalances Audrie enough that the woman falls backwards to the mat, turning the move into a double under hook DDT. Somehow Hecate has the presence of mind to grab onto Audrie closest arm as she rolls away from Audrie and quickly twist, bringing both her legs around the grapevine the arm and tries to cinch in an armbar.]
Jack Gene - I am still not sure exactly what happened there, it all happened so fast but it started with the FYF by Audrie and ended with an arm bar submission hold by Hecate.
Bill Hughes - This is the exhaustion factor playing in, Hecate made sure she trained for several days in the conditions down here which no one knows if Audrie even considered Hecate enough of a threat to do. If it had been earlier in the match, Hecate might not have been able to counter that or if she did come out in the dominant position like she has.
[Hecate twists on Audrie's arm and tries to get her legs locked around the arm, but Audrie is about to get her other arm in between them, keeping Hecate from fully getting the hold locked on. With a grimace, Audrie rises up to one knee, while Hecate holds on and does a forwards roll to get close enough to put a foot on the rope. Luna Pier forces Hecate to break the submission hold, which she does at the count of four. Hecate climbs back to her feet only to be on the receiving end of bull rush by Audrie, which takes Hecate down to the mat. Using Hecate's own hair, Audrie slams the back of Hecate's head into the mat over and over until Luna Pier forces her to break it up. Rising to her feet with a condescending look on her face, Audrie once again makes a cutthroat motion across her neck with her thumb.]
Jack Gene - Looks like Audrie is sensing victory here, she's eying that exposed turnbuckle too. I think she has something diabolical planned for the champion.
Bill Hughes - Audrie went back to her brutal butcher style, over powering Hecate and she primed to take her place as the Heartlands Champion.
[Audrie pulls Hecate back up to her feet by Hecate's hair, but Hecate breaks free and ducks an elbow strike attempt by Audrie and responds by burying a knee in Audrie's midsection. After an elbow strike of her own to the side of Audrie's head, Hecate whips Audrie across the ring, off the ropes and catches Audrie in an Arn Anderson style spinning spine buster. Hecate takes a few steps back, crouching slightly and motioning for Audrie to get to her feet, a wicked expression forming on her face.]
Jack Gene - I think Hecate is stalking Audrie to deliver another Hades Bound to the challenger.
Bill Hughes - Audrie might be expecting that but Hecate has shown she can connect with that move from just about anywhere and any direction.
[Audrie makes it back to her feet just as Hecate starts to rush in, Audrie brings her arms up to fend off any attempt at the Hades Bound but Hecate just grins and delivers what is commonly called the Spartan Kick to Audrie's midsection which drops Audrie to the mat like a sack of potatoes. Hecate doesn't give Audrie a chance to recover, dropping down in a kneeling position over Audrie's body and twisting Audrie so she is on her side. Hecate then bends Audrie's arm in double, looping one of her arms though it and locking onto her other arm as she starts to pull Audrie's arm and shoulder back towards her spine rather violently.]
Bill Hughes - Holy Shit! I thought that move was just made up for the movie the 300, you mean there is actually a real Spartan Kick?
Jack Gene - Hecate with another new submission move, whatever is it, it got Audrie tapping out almost right away. Hecate has just beating Audrie McLaughlin to retain the Heartlands Championship.
Bill Hughes - That is a Pankration shoulder lock, if Audrie didn't tape out Hecate could have easily dislocated Audrie's shoulder or worse, that is not something you want to be in for long.
Jack Gene - So that was what Kronin was talking about when he was on Mat Briefs with Mischa.
[Hecate looks at Audrie as she is handed the Heartlands Belt and extends a hand to Audrie, who bats Hecate's hand away and rolls out of the ring. Hecate gets her hand raised in victory by Luna Pier before climbing the turnbuckle and lifting the Heartlands Title over her head as the fans cheer loudly, blood still pouring down her face.]
A New Beat
Gras-Dawg - Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' bout! Get ready, boss man, cause the beat round here is bout to change cause Gras-Dawg's bout to be all up in here!
[He closes the door behind him and turns around as Jane Coughlin walks up to him.]
Jane Coughlin - You're Demetrius D'Angelo, yes? One of the new talent? I had heard rumors some or all three of you might be here for Blizzard. Is...Is that a contract you're holding in your hands?
[Demetrius grins and holds up the paper, revealing that it is indeed, a WMW Contract.]
Gras-Dawg - Damn! Baby, I'm whoever you want me to be, but you can call me Gras-Dawg cause when I'm around, it's like everyday is Mardi Gras! and yeah, this be a contract. I'm officially here in the WMW roster, which means that these punks and playas better get ready, cause the next big thing is here and I got enough Bourbon Street Beatdowns to go round for everyone.
[Gras Dawg then looks back and checks out Jane's ass and body and nods, reaching into his pocket and handing her a card.]
Gras-Dawg - And uh..if you be lookin' to make a bit of money on the side or wanna experience just how much pleasure you can stand, why dun you give me a call later on tonight.
[Gras Dawg winks and Jane rolls her eyes.]
Jane Coughlin - I'll pass, thanks. Onto more serious matters, can you tell the WMW fans a little about yourself? You're from New Orleans, right? I also understand you have history with two superstars in WMW, Valora and Kronin. Is that true?
Gras-Dawg - Damn baby! You ask too many questions! One thang at a time, one thang at a time! Yeah. I'm from the lower 9th ward of New Orleans. Ya know.. the place ya all shit on when that big bitch Katrina came knockin'. I been fightin' all my life and I'm here to show off what I can do. As for Kronin and Valora... I met up with Valora, she's as dangerous as she is hot if ya get what I'm sayin' and she can be one hot tamale! WHOO! As for Kronin, I seen him round, another white punk that thinks he knows street fighting and what a hard life is. I been itchin' to show him what hard knocks really are, and now I'm here and have the chance to not only do that, but to show these other punks and bitches what's up as well. The mood's bout to change round here baby! Those other two new signs, they dun even matter baby! The talent is all right here in this 6 foot 8, 260lb body of pure unadulterated big bad voodoo perfection right here!
Jane Coughlin - So...wait. You're dismissing the other two new signings? What about Wone? He's a returning WMW Star.
Gras-Dawg - Wone? Fuck kinda name is Wone? Man I haven't heard of him before and if I ain't heard of 'im, he can't be all that. I got my ear to the street, girl. Any good fightin' talent makes it's way to my ears sooner or later. 'Sides, I said to focus on me and what I bring because I'm gonna take this place by storm!
Jane Coughlin - Alright, so why did you come all the way here to Cleveland? Why not stay in New Orleans?
Gras-Dawg - Because, there's top quality talent here! I seen some sick matches here, and finally, after beating everyone in and around New Orleans, I decided I needed a new scene, and so I flip on the channel. I see one FINE ass latina chick here, Valora. I see only two brothers, Hell Rell and Mo'Bad?! I see one fine ass Asian chick, them some freaks right there, you get them into bed and Whoo Mama! but anyways... the point is, I see a place that needs some more color, needs a bit more soul, ya feel me? So, I came on up here to Cleveland in the butt ass crack of winter to show people what I can do. Now excuse me sugar, I gotta go party to celebrate my new contract and get ready to make my name here!
[Gras-Dawg spins around and starts dancing as he makes his way down the hallway and Jane Coughlin looks around confused.]
Jane Coughlin - Well... that was a few words from our new acquisition Gras Dawg. His debut match will definitely be something to look forward to.
The Knights Arrive at Blizzard
Heartlands Championship Buildup
Stephen Squires - And we are just moments away from the "Sacrifice" triple threat match for the Heartlands Title. In this match all three participants are putting something on the line. In this case, Hecate is putting her Heartlands Title on the line, Damian Knight is putting $10,000 on the line and Audrie McLaughlin is putting her WMW Contract on the line...Title vs Money vs Career all in one match!
John Squires - And unlike a normal sacrifice match, where normally it's the person who gets pinned or submits that has to sacrifice something, both losers will be sacrificing, it's a winner take all match.
Stephen Squires - Given the promos put out by all three this week, I don't expect anything short of a spectacular match with all three giving it their all. The Champion Hecate and Audrie McLaughlin have a history here in the WMW already, having fought some battles both in singles competition and in tag team matches like their epic match at El Dia but Damian Knight is the wild card here, especially with his size he could make a real difference in this match.
John Squires - Damian Knight has been reeling since his losses to Hell Rell, someone he considers inferior to him in every way. What a better way to get back on track than to win the Heartlands Title here tonight.
Stephen Squires - That would certainly go a long way to elevating Damian Knight in the ranks here of the WMW, but he's got a tall order ahead of him. First off Hecate has had one of the hottest starts here in the WMW, her only loss coming at the hands of Audrie McLaughlin and has stated she intends to break Jade's record for the longest Heartlands Title Reign. Secondly, there is Audrie McLaughlin, who is fighting for her very job and livelihood here, a loss tonight and she's gone from the WMW. How do you see this playing out John?
John Squires - Everyone is expecting either Hecate or Audrie to win this match, based mainly on their history together. It's very likely that the two of them will focus on each other and that will allow Damian Knight to pick his shots. I am going to have to go with Damian Knight in an upset win over both Hecate and Audrie McLaughlin. Damian Knight has two losses in a row to Hell Rell and he needs to make a statement quickly otherwise any hopes of moving up the ladder here in the WMW will be gone, and this is the perfect time for him to do so.
Stephen Squires - I am going to have to disagree with you there John, of all the competitors in this match, Audrie McLaughlin has the most to lose and that will mean she will do everything she can to win. Audrie won't fall into the same trap that she did last time with trying to wrestle to Hecate's strengths and I expect her to let Damian Knight and Hecate wear each other down and pick up the pieces, keeping the match to her strengths. I'm going with Audrie McLaughlin for not only the victory and the Heartlands Title here but to save her career as well.
John Squires - So we are in agreement though that tonight will mark the end of Hecate's championship run and Jade's record will be safe. In a triple threat match, the champion is always at a disadvantage and for Hecate it is even more so tonight. She's going to topple one of the largest athletes here in the WMW as well as defeat the woman who could very well know Hecate as well as Hecate knows herself. I just don't see how Hecate can pull that off, no matter how good a wrestler and champion she is.
Stephen Squires - I agree with you there John, tonight will be someone else's night to shine in the Heartlands division. And that match is coming up next. This is Blizzard 2010! Stay tuned!
[The shot fades.]
Hecate (c) vs. Damien Knight vs. Audrie McLaughlin
After Match Happenings
Hecate - Audrie, you and I might never be friends but I think it's safe to say we have earned each other's respect with our matches here in the WMW.
[Audrie hesitates another moment before nodding her head, both Eric is poised and ready to strike as Audrie is eager to see where this is going.]
Hecate - Now according to the stipulations for this match by loosing this match, whether she was pinned or not, Audrie's contract with the WMW is null and void. Well I've shed blood and sweat with this woman in some hard fought matches and it's my opinion that the WMW is worse off for not having Audrie amongst it's ranks.
[Both Audrie and Eric blink and look a bit shocked at that, Jade has a small smile on her lips as she listens to Hecate's words.]
Hecate - Do you want to see Audrie leave the WMW ?
[Hecate asks then extends the microphone as she slowly turns in a circle as the crowd starts to shout. "Let Audrie stay! Let Audrie stay!" and "Hell no, Audrie don't go!" Hecate grins as she brings the microphone back to her.]
Hecate - Sault St. Marie, listen to the fans, listen to the other wrestlers...find a way to re-work Audrie's contract and don't let this talented wrestler become just a former WMW wrestler.
[Audrie casually takes the microphone from Hecate with a solemn look on her face. As she brings up the mic she fights back a few tears.]
Audrie - Hecate... fans... I have to say thanks.
[Audrie looks Hecate in the eyes.]
Audrie - Thank you for the excellent competition and for matches I can be proud of for years to come.
[Audrie turns to the fans, but as she does she gets choked up. Eric walks up and says something inaudible while rubbing her shoulder. She nods and brings the mic back up.]
Audrie - And I really want to thank you guys for all the support you've given me these short months that I was here. Thanks for cheering me, buying a shirt, hell, thanks for showing up week after week because with out you guys I would have never made it here. Thanks...
[The fans cheer before they break out into chants, "THANK YOU, BUTCHER!" **CLAP, CLAP, CLAP** "THANK YOU BUTCHER!" **CLAP, CLAP, CLAP**]
Audrie - I would stay if I could, but right now WMW is not the place for me. I lost and I can't dispute it... I did this to myself and...
[Audrie stops for a moment and shakes her head. She drops the mic and exits the ring with her head down as she makes her way up the ramp. Eric follows shortly after and stops her as she gets to the top of the ramp. He says a few more words to her and she nods. Slowly, she turns back to the crowd and raises her arms for one last pop. She waves and blows a kiss before disappearing to the back.]
Shoot Championship Buildup
Amariie vs Jack Reynolds
After Match Happenings
Amariie vs. Jade (c)
[The camera shifts backstage where Jade is seen standing with Jack Reynolds, checking on his health briefly and giving him a small nod and patting him on the back before she makes her way out to the ringside area.
A sound of lightning breaks out and the lights in the arena flash to simulate a lightning bolt. After a few seconds, the Videotron comes to life. On the video tron, Jade's name appears with a Chinese Character in the background. Then a great Easten Jade dragon is shown circling around a landscape, then lightning seems to come down and strike the stage in front of the entryway causing a burst of green, silver and gold pyro have the dragon lunge towards the camera with mouth open as a roar escapes it's mouth, echoing through the arena.
After a few moments, Music from the Jade Dragon Concerto (Great Muta Concerto) plays over the PA and Jade seemingly walks through the pyro and flames of the Dragon, walking out in a determined, methodical pace before finally stopping in a fighting stance as her overcoat flutters in the air before displaying a flurry of punches and kicks, ending up with her making a few martial arts movement and clinching her fist as a final burst of pyro goes off behind her. She then narrows her eyes and runs down towards the ring, one foot barely touching the ground before lifting off and moving, her black overcoat fluttering around her Chinese style boots and leggings, colored dark gray with Jade dragon designs on them.
Once she reaches the ring, Jade jumps up and lands on the apron in a handstand before vaulting over the ropes and landing in a fighting stance, in one motion taking her overcoat off and tossing it aside as she retakes her fighting stance, eyes locked on her opponent.]
Jack Gene - And Jade with a display of sportsmanship, wishing Jack Reynolds well and checking on his health. Jade's been injured before too and knows how that feels.
Bill Hughes - Yeah, and now the DoD is guaranteed to keep the Shoot title! I just can't decide who I want to have it more. I love Amariie's attitude and she is right, the belt is her property.
Jack Gene - Really? Cause last time I checked, Jade held the belt. Amariie may think the belt is hers but she has to prove it here tonight and Jade has that look in her eye, she's in the zone.
[Jade slowly removes her Shoot title and hands it to John Law and looks over at Amariie, who points to the Shoot title and yells 'That's mine!' Jade remains stoic and raises her hand and makes the 'come on' motion to Amariie. Law calls for the bell and Amariie charges forward as the bell rings and throws two left jabs that are easily blocked by Jade and then tries for a spinning right backfist, but Jade catches the backfist attempt, pulls Amariie in close and nails her with a spinning right backfist of her own, sending Amariie staggering backwards. Amariie comes off the ropes and throws a kick out at Jade, but Jade catches the kick and jumps into the air, hitting Amariie with a spinning kick that sends her to the mat. Jade paces around the prone body of Amariie before pulling Amariie to her feet, Amariie counters with a low blow and tries for a school boy rollup but Jade kicks out before Law can even make a count. Jade rolls up to her feet and as as Amariie gets up Jade nails her with a Buzzsaw kick that echoes throughout the arena and sends Amariie slumping to the mat.]
Jack Gene - Ouch! Well Amariie has shown she'll cheat even against her supposed friends in this match, but Jade is... well, Jade is taking Amariie to the woodshed here and teaching her a lesson.
Bill Hughes - Think we'll see Jade bend Amariie over her knee and spank her? I could get behind that...
[Jade pulls Amariie to her feet and shakes her head as she whips Amariie into the corner. Amariie climbs up to the top turnbuckle, preparing for a highrisk move but Jade rolls forward and as she comes out of the roll leaps into the air and slaps Amariie across the face, dazing her. She then grabs Amariie's arms and jumps off the middle rope, flipping Amariie over her and sending Amariie back first onto the mat as Jade drops into a sitting position, hitting an iconoclasm like move. Jade hops up and wastes no time, rolling Amariie over onto her face and pulls her legs up, crossing Amariie's feet and interlocking her own feet with Amariie's before bending back and arching her back into a bridge, grabbing Amariie's face and neck, pulling up and back, cinching in the infamous muta lock. John Law immediately drops down and checks for a submission as Amariie screams out in pain.]
Jack Gene - Wow! Jade slapped the taste out of Amariie's mouth there, and then that flip move right into the famous Muta Lock! Amariie is in deep trouble here!
Bill Hughes - I can't believe Jade just bitchslapped Amariie! Some friend Jade is!
[Jade keeps pressure on the hold as Amariie continues to try and fight off the effects of the hold. Law asks her again if she wants to give up but Amariie says no, trying to turn her body so she can get to the ropes. Jade holds firm however and after a few more seconds, Amariie cries out in pain and taps out as John Law stands up and calls for the bell, telling Jade to break the hold, which she does.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner and still WMW Shoot Champion, JADE!!!!
Jack Gene - An emphatic win by Jade! She may have set a record for fastest victory in WMW history! Certainly one of the most dominant victories as Amariie had almost no effective offense against her!
Bill Hughes - This won't play well in the DoD. Jade just humiliated a fellow member!
Jack Gene - Perhaps Amariie should have showed Jade a bit more respect in her promo. Jade showcased just how dangerous a competitor she is in this match.
[Jade grabs a mic and slings her Shoot title over her shoulder as she walks over to Amariie.]
Jade - It would seem, my friend, that this is my belt after all. Better luck next time.
[Jade drops the mic by Amariie's head and climbs out of the ring and makes her way to the backstage area.]
WMW Match of the Year (EWTorch.com Segment)
Burn '09 Replay > Valora vs. Adam Pyre for the Hardcore Championship
Written by: Jade
Jack Gene - And now& here we go& we apologize for the slight delay, folks but the crews are out here setting up the cage and fireproofing the ringside area. Firefighters and EMTs are standing by as this match almost guarantees serious, perhaps career ending injury&
Bill Hughes - Yeah, for those in the front row& it's about to get hot here&literally.
[The cage is set up and the firefighters come out, carefully lining the walls of the cage, while other firefighters prep the ringside area to reduce the danger to the fans as the Ring crew carefully disassemble and reassemble the ring ropes, replacing them with barbed wire.]
Jack Gene - I just& don't know what Valora is looking to prove in this match. She's picking a match that Adam Pyre invented and made infamous& she's replacing the ring ropes with barbed wire& she is setting herself up in an impossible situation. Where's the win here, for her?
Bill Hughes - Jack.. you really are an idiot at times. Valora has always been about living on the edge. She's a showman err& showwoman& what do showmen do? They stick to their opponent, they get in their head and get the crowd fired up, they amaze and wow us all& What better way to drill it into your opponent's head that they can't beat you then to beat them in a match they created? Valora beats the Deathcore icon in a deathcore match that he invented& she leaves him with no choice& he has to admit that she is better. That's what this comes down to. Pride. Pure and simple. Since her debut here, Valora has sought one thing and one thing only. Respect. To make everyone know and acknowledge that she is the best. She wins here tonight. The world will notice.
Jack Gene - You make some good points there, Bill. But it seems like an awful lot to risk for simple pride.
Bill Hughes - 'Simple' Pride? Listen to yourself, man& no wonder your wife is out looking for real men&
Jack Gene - Anyways& Ladies and Gentlemen, we have to warn you that this match is going to be exceptionally violent in all likelihood. Young children, those who are squeamish and those with weak hearts should not watch this match we..WHOA!!!
[All of a sudden, the preparations finish and as the crew evacuates the cage is ignited bursting into flames, eliciting an 'OOOOH!' from the crowd. Wayne Inkster is shown arguing with both Luna Pier and John Law, both official emphatically shaking their head no and gesturing to the cage.]
Bill Hughes - hmm& looks like there's an interesting disagreement between the refs and Inkster& who I notice is staying away from the cage&.
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen& the next match of the night here at Burn 2009 is a Gates of Hell match and it is for the WMW Hardcore Championship!!! There has been a slight change to this match, however& Referees Luna Pier and John Law are refusing to enter the cage Therefore& we need to&
[Wayne Inkster is cut off by the STO theme and Sault St. Marie comes out of the back, a not pleased look on his face as he makes his way down to the ring and debates with the referees..]
Jack Gene - Well.. it looks like neither one of the referees wants to get inside the cage& can't say that I blame them, really.. you'd have to be nuts to step inside that thing..
Bill Hughes - but& we can't have our awesome match with no refs! Tell them to do their damn job!
[Sault St. Marie and Law confer and finally appear to reach a consensus which is then relayed to Wayne Inkster who gets back on the mic.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, WMW Officials Luna Pier and John Law refuse to enter the cage.. therefore the only way to win the match will be by escape from the flaming cage!!! Both Luna Pier and John Law have been assigned to watch for the escape attempts and to declare the winner. And now to the match! Introducing first, the challenger. Hailing from Long Beach, California. He stands 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighs in at 185lbs. He is the King of Freaks and a Deathcore Icon&.ADAM PYRE!!!!!
["Freak" by Silverchair blasts from the PA as Adam Pyre makes his way down to the ring. He walks slowly, deliberately, forcing the fans and his opponent to anticipate his entry into the ring. Every so often, his head twitches to the right or left, taking the ringside fans by surprise. As he makes his way down to the cage, he inspects it carefully darting his hand in and out of the flames, playing, almost taunting the fire as he laughs maniacally and shakes his head before finally stepping inside the cage and making his way into the ring. Once there he stands in the middle of the ring, inspecting the cage and waiting for his opponent to be announced.. The crowd boos him heavily during all of this but he flips them off, feeding on their hate, calling for more as if to psyche himself up for the match.]
Wayne Inkster - And introducing his opponent. Hailing from Los Angeles, California. She stands 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighs in at 150lbs. She is a member of the Pinnacle of Power, she is also the reigning, and defending WMW Hardcore Champion& WMW's Queen of Extreme& VALORA SALINAS!!!!
[Three big blasts of Pyro explode around the entrance way and 'More Human than Human' by Rob Zombie plays as Valora seems to literally come out through and from the pyro bursts, her Hardcore Championship around her waist as she paces back and forth at the top of the ramp before drawing her 9mm handgun, pointing it into the air and firing 3 shots into the air.]
Jack Gene - JESUS! Her gun was fully loaded that time!
Bill Hughes - She's looking to prove a point here, Jack&I'll tell you one thing& I would not want to be Adam Pyre right now&
[Valora runs down the rampway, letting the fans pat her on the back and shoulders as she moves, stopping in front of John Law and taking off her Hardcore Championship, handing the belt to him before running towards the stairs and jumping into the ring. Once she's in, a firefighter in full firefighter gear closes and locks the cage door, backing away quickly..]
Jack Gene - Well& here we go& Valora and Pyre II. Two Hardcore legends about to battle once more.
Bill Hughes - Match of the Year, right here& Hardcore moment of the Year at the very least&
[The bell rings and Valora and Adam Pyre walk up to the center of the ring, staring at each other. They exchange words and Adam Pyre swings but Valora ducks coming up with a grin on her face. Adam swings again and Valora ducks again laughing and shaking her head. Adam Growls and throws a flurry of punches and Valora ducks dodges and weaves through them before coming up and slapping Adam Pyre in the face. The crowd laughs a bit as Adam Pyre charges forward but Valora takes him down with a drop toe hold, turning it into an STF. Adam Pyre cries out in pain as Valora cinches the hold in, holding it for a few second before releasing him and slamming the back of his head with her fist before getting to her feet, pulling Adam Pyre up with her but he counters with a low punch below the belt and jumps to his feet, whipping Valora hard towards the rope yelling out "B & E!" as he follows her in nailing her with his big boot just as she slams back first into the barb wire, the big boot sending her up and over the barbed wire ring rope, cutting into her back as Valora topples over the ropes, into the burning wall of the cage and is quickly sandwiched between the ring ropes and the flaming cage as Adam Pyre grabs the barbed wire rope and presses his foot into Valora's body holding her back to the cage as she screams in agony.]
Jack Gene - OH MY GOD! You can smell the flesh on Valora's back being seared! This is sick!
Bill Hughes - Adam's making a mistake though& the heat is going to sterilize and cauterize the cuts on her back.
[Adam finally releases the hold and plays to crowd being booed heavily as Valora rolls into the ring putting herself out and writhing in agony, smoke rising from her body as she slowly tries to get to her feet. Adam sees her and charges forward, picking her up by her hair and hollering into her face as he slaps her.]
Adam Pyre - GOD DAMN IT! You want face me in MY match!? You want Deathcore?!
[Adam Pyre pulls Valora to her feet and jumps into the air spinning Valora around and dropping her forehead first onto the barbed wire roping with a hurrancanrana before running back and then bouncing off the ropes on the other side running up and jumping, landing on Valora's back driving her further into the ropes. He gets up and walks towards the door, calling for the door to be opened. Valora stays on the barbed wire, blood pouring down from her forehead as she finally pulls herself off, her face has a good amount of blood on it. The door is slowly opened and Adam Pyre starts to head towards it when Valora runs forward screaming out and nails him with a dropkick, sending him face first into the burning cage. As Adam Pyre hollers in pain, Valora hooks him from behind and takes him down with a Tazzmission hold into a suplex, throwing Pyre with such force he lands face first as Valora then jumps up to the top turnbuckle and leaps into the air, landing on Pyre's head with his double stomp, driving his face further into the mat.]
Jack Gene - My God! Look at Valora's face& she's definitely wearing the proverbial crimson mask now..
Bill Hughes - Oh wow& nice one there JR& got any other old cliches to bore us with?
[In the ring, Valora struggles to her feet and kicks Adam Pyre for good measure to keep him down before looking around and smirking. She then drops down and gives Adam Pyre the you cant see me gesture before bouncing off the ropes and walking up to him, pausing to make the motion of wiping dirt off her shoulder before dropping her fist square on Adam Pyre's face, which is now bleeding as well. She starts to pull Adam Pyre to his feet but Pyre counters, taking her to the mat hard with his patented F-bomb move. Pyre then gets back to his feet, shaking his head and moving over to one of the turnbuckles, dropping to the ground and carefully wiggling under the ropes to reach under the ring, grimacing at the heat and flames licking at his back as he pulls up a pair of special gloves which he then puts on and holds out onto the cage, the gloves quickly igniting and Pyre turns to Valora as she gets back to her feet, a wicked gleam in his eyes as he runs up and punches Valora in the gut with one of his now flaming fists, causing Valora to cry out in pain, before Pyre nails her across the face with a right cross, before hitting a left uppercut to her body and finally hitting her in the throat with his right hand, sending Valora staggering backwards trying to prevent her clothes from igniting. As she staggers backwards, Adam winds up and goes for the big punch throwing all his force into the punch but Valora rebounds, catching his fist in mid air as she grimaces in pain, the flames burning her hand before she removes her flask of alcohol from her breasts.. Adam's eyes widen in fear as she takes a swig and spits the alcohol into the fire, which roars to life, sending Adam Pyre running around the ring totally engulfed in flame. Valora, meanwhile withdraws her hand, severely burned and takes her bandanna off wrapping it around her injured hand as she drops to a knee. Adam Pyre rolls around on the ground, finally extinguishing himself, laying on the mat exhausted and hurt.]
Jack Gene - Will someone stop the damn match before these two kill themselves?! For the love of all that's Holy!
Bill Hughes - This is an awesome match! Look at the expressions on their faces! Neither one is laughing& both competitors have passed their thresholds and are in obvious pain! We're seeing a first here!
[Valora finally stands up, her left hand heavily wrapped by now and trembling in pain from the damaged nerve endings. She takes a few steps towards Adam Pyre who all of a sudden jumps to his feet and charges forward, nailing Valora with his Spear, driving her back into the barbed wire ropes where he quickly climbs on the ropes and hammers his fists down on Valora's face before hopping down and pulling her off, walking her to the turnbuckle, setting her up on the top and climbing up after her, looking to the barbed wire ropes with an evil grin. He then slams Valora face first into the cage pole and then tosses her off of the top turnbuckle gut first onto the top rope before jumping off, hitting his Killing Curse on top of Valora, driving her further onto the ropes as he crumples to the mat and Valora is driven onto the ropes, falling over, getting all tangled up in the barbed wire, blood running from multiple wounds on her body.]
Jack Gene - I think I'm going to be sick&.
Bill Hughes - What? You can't be&
[The camera cuts briefly to Jack Gene as he ducks behind the desk, vomiting as he's overcome by the sheer violence and brutality of the match.]
Bill Hughes - AWWWW Man! Not Cool!
[In the ring, Adam Pyre gets up and sees Valora struggling to free herself and smirks evilly hopping back before leaping forward, hitting Valora with a Six Minute Miracle, freeing her from the ropes and sending her into the burning cage once more, causing her to cry out in pain before rolling back into the ring. Adam Pyre walks towards Valora and prepares to finish her off but then hesitates, looking back to the door, then to Valora, then to the door again, before stomping the mat in frustration and turning to the door, calling for it to be open. The door opens and Adam Pyre peeks his head out and is about to step onto the stairs when out of nowhere Valora grabs him, pulling him back into the ring, Adam Pyre having an almost desperate look on his face as he tries to jump out but Valora pulls him back in. The door closes as Valora pulls Adam Pyre into the ring, kicking him in the gut and taking him to the mat hard with a Pedigree. Valora gets up and quickly slips on her brass knuckles as Adam Pyre gets to his feet. She then turns around and nails him with a discus punch sending a spray of blood from his face along with a tooth as Pyre topples to the mat.]
Jack Gene - My God! I think she just broke Adam Pyre's nose!
Bill Hughes - I think so too! This is a great match! Now they're both bleeding fairly badly& let's see who drops first..
[Valora drops to a knee momentarily, but then shakes her head, gritting her teeth as she stands up, smirking as she waits for Pyre to get up. Pyre rolls over to being on all fours and Valora sprints forward, connecting with her punt kick to the side of Adam Pyre's head, sending him flying into the barbed wire. Seeing him down. Valora turns and calls for the cage door to open and watches as it's slowly opened. She makes her way towards the door but as she steps through, Adam Pyre leaps up and grabs Valora by her hair, slowly dragging her back into the ring as the door closes once more. Adam Pyre kicks Valora in the gut and lifts her up onto his shoulders, grinning as he prepares for his move. but as he throws her up for his version of the Go to Sleep, Valora counters, spinning him around and planting him with a tornado DDT as the crowd cheers and chants Valora's name, neither wrestler moving on the mat.]
Jack Gene - This match won't end! There's blood all over the ring! You have to ask yourself just how much longer these two can go firstly and secondly, no matter who wins this match, you have to ask yourself& who in the WMW will be crazy enough to fight either of these two for the Hardcore Championship?
Bill Hughes - Well, Jack& this is what Hardcore is all about. How bad do you want the title? What are you willing to sacrifice to get it? We're seeing just how badly Valora and Adam Pyre want to be Hardcore Champion right here tonight. Valora is on the WWR's top wrestler list in 2 different spots, after all! She's currently number 7 on the women's list and is at number 24 with Mr. Videogame on the Tag Team list. Adam Pyre is a Deathcore icon striving to prove he's still a threat, and I think he has more then proved that thus far in this match.
[In the ring, both wrestlers slowly get to their feet and just stand toe to toe trading punches, both of them barely able to stand, finally as Adam Pyre throws a punch, Valora ducks under it, running behind Pyre and as he turns around, Valora jumps into the air and nails him with the Trouble in Paradise kick, again sending both wrestlers crashing to the mat where neither moves for a few seconds, before Valora rolls over onto her back, laughing a bit as she reaches into her pocket and pulls out her trademark box cutter as the crowd goes wild. She crawls over to Adam Pyre and positions herself in a mounted position over him, raining down a couple of stiff right hands right to Pyre's forehead before grabbing his left arm and slicing a long gash into it with her box cutter, causing Adam Pyre to roll and thrash around the mat in pain as Valora fights to her feet and holds the bloody box cutter up in the air to a cheering crowd. As she does so, Adam Pyre again crawls to a corner and reaches under the ring, digging around for a few seconds before withdrawing a barbed wire 2x4 which he ignites from the cage, turning to Valora as he creeps up behind her before swinging hard, nailing Valora in the middle of her back. Valora cries out in pain and he swings again, hitting Valora in the back once more and dropping her to her knees as he winds up and swings one final time, the 2x4 breaking in half as the hits her back one final time, sending Valora toppling to the mat, where she writhes in pain, trying to get to her feet. Adam Pyre pulls her to her feet, hooking her into a front facelock before slamming his knee repeatedly into her face before lifting her up in a vertical suplex maneuver... holding her there for a good 15 seconds before slamming her to the mat hard.]
Jack Gene - What a display of power there by Adam Pyre! That vertical suplex had to really take a lot out of Valora's tank.
Bill Hughes - I'd say the flaming barbed wire 2×4 hurt more then a vertical suplex there, Jack.
[In the ring, Pyre makes the 'it's over' motion and calls for the cage to be opened. He starts towards it as they open the door but Valora grabs his foot and as he turns around, she jumps up nailing him with a European Uppercut, which sends him staggering back a couple of steps and lets Valora get to her feet. Pyre looks at Valora in abject disbelief as he shakes his head.]
Pyre (Yelling) - God Damn it! Stay down you crazy bitch! You wanna die?!
Jack Gene - signs of frustration here from Adam Pyre.. not that I blame him& it does, at times seem like Valora just can't be beaten.
Bill Hughes - It's like the more you hurt her the stronger she gets& she's like a sexy weird version of the Hulk!
Jack Gene - Actually, if you wanted to do comic book characters, I'd say Valora is closer to the Punisher than anyone else.
[In the ring, both wrestlers stare at each other for long moments, each one trying to figure out what they have to do to keep the other down long enough to escape the cage. The camera zooms in on Valora's face, now totally covered in blood and then switches to Adam Pyre's face, also covered in blood as the two exchange words while on the outside of the ring, Trauma nurses arrive to back up the Paramedics, both groups actively campaigning Sault St. Marie to stop the match. Sault St. Marie watches the ring intently, studying both of his wrestlers in the ring. As they stare at each other the two walk forward and lock up, jockeying for position. Pyre tries to hit Valora with a knee to the midsection, but Valora blocks with her own leg, then counters with a knee to Pyre's midsection, slipping behind him and locking in the Tazzmision, locking it in tight as she screams out, tightening her arms around Adam Pyre's neck as she cuts off his oxygen supply, slowly taking him to the mat, locking her legs around his ribs to further drive the air out of him. Adam Pyre flails around, trying desperately to escape but his movements quickly become slower, slower... slower until finally he stops moving. Valora leaves the hold on for a few more seconds to be sure and then nods to herself as she starts to crawl across the ring, calling for the cage to be opened. The door is opened and as Pyre lies unconscious in the ring, Valora slowly crawls under the ropes and through the door, falling face first into a heap on the floor outside the cage. The bell rings as Pier and Law signal escape from the cage.]
Jack Gene - Valora did it! She beat Adam Pyre in a match Pyre invented and made famous! This woman is unbeatable!!!
Bill Hughes - That's my girl!!!
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner and still WMW Hardcore Champion&.VALORA SALINAS!!!!!
[Valora is handed the Hardcore belt by Sault St Marie and she clutches it to her chest, barely conscious herself as she is attended to by paramedics and trauma nurses, who quickly secure her to a stretcher and wheel her towards the back as the other team of them run into the ring to tend to Pyre, taking him out via stretcher as well.]
GLC/ASC Buildup
Stephen Squires - And we are just moments away from the first ever "Frostbite Brawl" and this exciting match format hopefully will become an annual event for the Blizzard Pay Per View. Tonight's match will feature The Great Lakes Champion Kronin and the Ace Superior Champion Valora defending their titles in the same match against five other challengers. AWS Man and Adam Pyre will join Valora to give That Damn Awesome! three people in the match, Kronin will have his tag team partner Ryven in the match as well and then we have the wild cards in Druscilla and Father Nathan.
John Squires - There will be some special rules for this match as well, as Sault St. Marie outlined in his press conference, before you are eligible to retrieve a briefcase you have to score a pin fall on one of the others in the match and to add to it, if you are pinned you are sent to a penalty box for two minutes, taking you out of the match which should be a huge impact in the match.
Stephen Squires - Exactly and the way the match is shaping up, we have That Damn Awesome! on one side against Kronin and Ryven, the tag team champions on the other side with Father Nathan and Druscilla as more or less the wild card entrants. Add onto that the animosity that has been building between not only Kronin and AWS Man but between Kronin and Valora and then Ryven and Druscilla have a history as well so there is a good chance that it could be four on two with Druscilla helping out That Damn Awesome! to continue her rivalry against Ryven.
John Squires - Good Point there Stephen, but Father Nathan has some history with Kronin as well, and I think Father Nathan will help even those odds, especially since Druscilla and Father Nathan have the most history between all the competitors. I really expect that we will see these feuds re-ignited here tonight.
Stephen Squires - This type of match favors That Damn Awesome! to walk out with at least one of the belts, they have the numbers on their side and if they can work together can really divide and conquer the rest of the field. But that is a big if with the way things have been between That Damn Awesome! members lately.
John Squires - On the other hand, Kronin and Ryven are expected to work well together, and if Father Nathan can work with both of them, that trio can more or less neutralize the impact That Damn Awesome! has in the match. To me the difference maker in this match will be Druscilla, she has experience in multiple person matches, remember she won her Ace Superior title during the Widowmaker Mountain match against Kronin, Fury and Mr. Hero.
Stephen Squires - We could spend on all night going over the various possibilities of sub-match ups of what will be an epic battle. But who are your favorites in this match John?
John Squires - I'm going to have to go with with either AWS Man or Valora grabbing one of the briefcases, the numbers game will just prove to much for the rest of the field to keep them back and I'm going to go with a surprise upset for the second briefcase...I think Father Nathan will end up being overlooked in this match and will be able to grab a briefcase in all the chaos but my true underdog pick would have to be Druscilla, she's primed to make a big impact soon and this match couldn't be the better place to do so in.
Stephen Squires - Picking a member of That Damn Awesome! seems a safe bet, like you said they have the numbers game but Kronin is also a veteran of these multi person matches and with Ryven and Father Nathan's help, he will manage to snag one of the briefcases and for my second pick I have to go with Ryven, what a coup that would be, for Kronin and Ryven to be not only the WMW Tag Team Champions but also the Great Lakes Champion and the Ace Superior Champion.
John Squires - So you think the Tag Champions will pull off the Hail Mary play and grab both prizes, what about Druscilla, Ryven is sure to be in her sights and she seems to have him number right now especially with how Ryven's been acting. Also, like I said, no one gave her a chance to win in Widowmaker's Mountain and she came out the ASC in that match as well. Even Kronin made mention of the fact that he considered Druscilla to be highly underrated here in WMW.
Stephen Squires - Druscilla has all the tools to win this match, but she's going to be out there alone. Everyone else will have backup of some form or another, I just can't see Druscilla being able to weather the storm in this match long enough to grab a case. That match is coming up next in moments, This is Blizzard '10 Stay tuned!
John Squires - Well, before we go to the match, let's take a moment and look at how things can go out here. I think some people really aren't focusing on the potential we have here tonight. I mean no one knows which title is attached to which briefcase, we could see Kronin grab a briefcase but still technically lose and be dropped down to the ASC division as the ASC Champ. We could see Druscilla, Ryven, or even Father Nathan emerge as the Great Lakes Champ! This is truly a match where no one knows or can predict what's going to happen. We also forgot another big rivalry that has formed recently, Ryven and Valora. The two have been at each other's throats and Valora beat Ryen in a brutal match to become Ace Superior Champion down in Mexico City at El Dia De Los Muertos. Interesting trivia fact, I heard the next day, the mayor of Mexico City awarded Valora the key to the city and declared a holiday.
Stephen Squires - Oh, you don't need to remind me of that. Ryven either. But that to me is a scary thought. Forget AWS Man, could you imagine the violent, unstable, sociopathic Valora as our Great Lakes Champion? That could happen. And one would have to ask what would happen to That Damn Awesome! Can AWS Man stand having a stablemate hold his precious GLC?
John Squires - In a word, no. I don't think AWS Man could live with that at all. I shudder to think of Valora as our Great Lakes Champion but she was dead on in that AWS Man is not a team player. If Valora or Adam Pyre win the GLC here tonight, there's going to be a massive struggle for leadership in TDA! The group might not even survive it. But, I also believe that either Adam Pyre or Valora would make better leaders then AWS Man. Valora has shown herself to be an expert at getting inside people's heads. People like to write her off as just a street thug, a hardcore wrestler, but everytime you think you can classify Valora as one thing, she moves and shows she can fit into another category. Look at her resume already. Hardcore Icon, brawler, mixed martial artist, luchadore, high flyer, she has even displayed technical ability too, matching Hecate move for move the last few times the two have met up. Valora is one of those rare wrestlers who shows the ability and potential to excel at all areas of wrestling.
Stephen Squires - I'm curious about one thing, though. Why are you picking Druscilla? She has tools yes, but is there another factor you see here that we might be missing?
John Squires - Well, the Daughters of Darkness scored a major free agent acquisition by convincing Jade to join. Over the holiday break, we saw that all the members of the Daughters of Darkness-except for Amariie- were present in England, Hecate made it clear the DoD was still looking for talent, going out and speaking with Father Nathan's ally, Tera. But the underlying thing here is Jade is coming on strong, hitting her stride and getting her name back on the tip of people's tongues, even more so after that beat down she handed Amariie tonight. Hecate is also a superstar, an up and comer and especially after tonight's performance, could be moving up into higher tiers to compete, I believe this all has had a positive effect on Druscilla as well. The success of her friends, combined with her own desire to not end up like so many British pro wrestlers do, jobbers that have to swallow their pride on almost a nightly basis, has really pushed her to excel and her raw physicality can't be overlooked. Druscilla doesn't back down from anyone and Ryven named her as one of only two people he truly fears in WMW. That has to count for something.
Stephen Squires - Indeed it does, but...let's not focus on that too much. Let's move onto some other people here. Speaking of people Ryven fears, he named the Insane One, AWS Man, as the second of the two people he truly fears in WMW. AWS Man is easily written off as a clown, but he has shown time and time again that he is one of the very best wrestlers WMW has to offer. He won the All-In Challenge last year, defeating Kronin, and in the process lasting from number one all the way through the match. He also managed to hold off Jade and Kronin in a triple threat elimination match to retain the GLC when he last had it, and beat Kronin within an inch of his life in an I quit match that Kronin later came back and won, but still, the bottom line is AWS Man knows how to deliver in the big game and he's made no bones about the fact that he wants his Great Lakes Championship back. Kronin, too, is chuck full of talent and has been on a very impressive rampage. In fact, AWS Man is really the only person who beat Kronin in 2009. His loses to non-AWS Man opponents were very few and very far in between. Bottom line is Kronin wins matches. Period. He is also the best technical wrestler in WMW for my money, and has insane power and strength to combine with that. Final question though, let's get away from individual wrestlers and focus on the match itself. What strategy would you use for a match like this? How do you see this going?
John Squires - Well, having never wrestled, I can only imagine the strategy one might employ in a match like this, but I can see the penalty box being a good thing and a bad thing. Sure, in the penalty box, you can't influence the match at all for 2 minutes but you also get 2 minutes to rest and recover a bit while the other competitors are beating the hell out each other. This should mean that a returning wrestler will be a bit fresher then others and allows for us to see some highlight reel worthy moments and I'm betting there are going to be more the a few highlight reels from this match. Sault St. Marie has laid down the gameplan. WMW has been noticed by the national media and is proving itself to be a viable and quality product. He wants that trend to continue and move up, to that end, he took the very best talent WMW has to offer and threw them into one big match. Judging by the sheer talent factor alone in this match, I think this match is going to be one to remember and I'm going to predict that this match will be a nominee for WMW Match of the year later on this summer.
Stephen Squires - That's a bold prediction, but one I could definitely see playing out. But I'm being told we're ready to start the match so let's go back to Jack and Bill ringside for what promises to be an epic match.
[The shot fades.]
Pyre vs AWS Man vs Druscilla vs Father Nathan vs Kronin vs Ryven vs. Valora
Jack Gene - Well, here we go, folks. Welcome to the first of what we sincerely hope will become an Annual Tradition here in Wrestling Midwest. The Frostbite Brawl. The rules are pretty straightforward, so let's take a moment to cover them now. Every competitor will start off in the ring at the same time, the match itself will be held under a special rules set which goes as follows: The match is basically going to be divided into two different types of matches. It will be a pretty much regular match save that weapons and ladders are legal. The goal is to score a pinfall or submission. But that does not end the match. Whoever scores the pinfall or submission becomes eligible to climb a ladder and reach for one of the bags suspended over the ring. Each bag contains a title belt, one holds the Ace Superior Championship, the other holds the coveted Great Lakes Championship. Now there is a drawback to being pinned or being forced to tap out, the downside being you are removed from the match for 2 minutes which means, the match could end before that person can get back into the match. The match will end when both titles have been removed and at that point, the bags will be opened and we will find out who has won what titles. Who has the advantage in a match like this, Bill? Who are your picks?
Bill Hughes - Well, this match is totally new to WMW. To my knowledge, this is also the first time that everyone here has competed in a match like this, but my first pick has to be Valora. This match seems to be right up her alley, and for my second pick, I'm gonna go with AWS Man. There are three members of That Damn Awesome! here and I think we're going to see them work together.
Jack Gene - That would be a first.
Bill Hughes - Alright smartass, who are your picks?
Jack Gene - I think...Kronin and Valora, but we're all picking the mainstream top tier talent, who are your surprise picks?
Bill Hughes - For my upset pick...Druscilla. The woman is highly underrated.
Jack Gene - I'll take Ryven as my upset pick. He's due for a rebound and Kronin will be looking to help his partner out.
[The camera shifts to the ring where Wayne Inkster stands as the two briefcases are raised over the ring. By the announce booth stand two pedestals. One holds the Great Lakes Championship and the other holds the Ace Superior Championship. Wayne Inkster glances over at the stands, surrounded by WMW security and nods as he raises his microphone.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, the next match is your main event of the evening for Blizzard 2010 and it is the first annual Frostbite Brawl match to determine both the Great Lakes and Ace Superior Champions!
[Crowd cheers loudly as 'WMW! WMW! WMW!' chants break out and Wayne Inkster continues.]
Wayne Inkster - The rules of this match, are as follows. All competitors will be in the ring at the same time once the match starts. They will compete until a pinfall or submission is scored. At that time, the wrestler who scores the pinfall or submission will become eligible to remove one of the two briefcases suspended 15ft off the mat. Inside those briefcases is a slip of paper revealing which title the briefcase represents. The wrestler who was pinned or made to submit, will be sent to our penalty box area for 2 minutes, during which time they can not take part in the match in any way, shape or form. The match will end when both briefcases have been removed by an eligible wrestler and we will then learn who has won which title! Now without further ado, here are the competitors in the first ever Frostbite Brawl match!!
[Crowd cheers loudly again.]
Wayne Inkster - Introducing first, hailing from Long Beach, California. He stands 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighs in at 222lbs. He is the King of Freaks and a member of That Dam Awesome!, ADAM PYRE!!!!
['Freak' by Silverchair plays and Pyre walks out, his usual sadistic grin on his face as he flips the crowd off as they boo him. He makes his way down to the ring, glancing at the title belts before heading to ringside where he slides into the ring and snatches the mic away from Wayne Inkster.]
Adam Pyre - Hey! Get it right! I'm 6'5 with the mohawk!
[He throws the mic back to Wayne Inkster, who looks confused and then shakes his head, moving on.]
Wayne Inkster - Introducing the next competitor, hailing from Freakville, North Carolina. He stands 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weighs in at 236lbs. He is a former Great Lakes Champion and the leader of That Damn Awesome! He is AWS MAN (Also Known as Bill)!!!
[3.14 by Bloodhound Gang plays over the speakers and AWS Man comes out, carrying Pen as usual. He pauses and looks over the ring, ignoring the boos of the crowd as he makes the way to the ring and slides in, looking at Pyre as he moves to his corner.]
Jack Gene - Well, two of our competitors are in the ring now and hard to tell anything from the looks Pyre and AWS Man exchanged as they got into the ring.
Bill Hughes - Well duh. They aren't going to give anything away just yet. They're both veterans after all.
Wayne Inkster - Introducing next. Hailing from London, England. She stands 6 feet tall and weighs in 220lbs. She is a former Ace Superior Champion and a member of the Daughters of Darkness. She is DRUSCILLA!!!!
[The lights in the arena dim and Druscilla's voice speaks over the PA saying. "England Prevails!" 'Can Die No More' by Lake of Tears then plays over the PA and Druscilla walks out slowly, holding her chalice and stands at the entranceway, looking down her nose at the ring, a smug sneer on her face. The crowd boos but Druscilla ignores it as she makes her way down the ramp towards the ring. When she gets there, she sets her chalice aside and climbs into the ring, giving a sideways glance to Adam Pyre and AWS Man as she leans back against one of the turnbuckles and glances towards the entrance, waiting to see the next entrant.]
Wayne Inkster - And introducing the next competitor. Hailing from Dublin, Ireland. He stand 6 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs in at 250lbs. He is the conscience of WMW, FATHER NATHAN!!!!
[The lights in the arena dim again and 'Elembivos' by Eluveitie plays over the PA as Father Nathan walks out, carrying his cross and pauses at the ovation from the fans who jump to their feet, cheering. Father Nathan nods to the crowd and walks down to the ringside area, setting up his cross before kneeling down and praying. As he does so, the 'Father Nathan' prayer rises up from the crowd. When he is done, Father Nathan remains near his cross and looks to the entryway.]
Jack Gene - And we now have Father Nathan and Druscilla added to the mix. These two have a long history too and we look forward to seeing them settle the score in this match.
Bill Hughes - Pfft. Father Nathan doesn't belong in this match. He's just filler. No one actually expects him to win one of those titles tonight.
Jack Gene - Father Nathan does.
Bill Hughes - Which is one of the many things that makes him an idiot.
Wayne Inkster - And introducing next. Hailing from Chicago, Illinois. He stands 6 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs in at 275lbs. He is the reigning and defending Great Lakes Champion and one half of the Tag Team Champions. He is also a member of the Pinnacle of Power and is the Master of Rock and Shock, KRONIN!!!!!
['Freya' by the Sword plays over the PA and a blast of pyro goes off, and the crowd erupts into cheers as Kronin and Lilly rise from the middle of the entryway. Lilly wears the armor of a Valkyrie and Kronin is on a knee in front of her, staring at the floor. Lilly stands up and places a hand on Kronin's shoulder and points towards the ring. Kronin stands and hops up into the air, driving his fist into the ground as a huge explosion of pyro goes off behind him and he makes his way down to the ring, looking around the arena as he makes his way to the ring. He then slides into the ring and comes to his feet as he and AWS Man glare at each other from across the ring. Kronin then climbs the turnbuckle and holds up his fist as the crowd goes nuts.]
Wayne Inkster - And introducing the next competitor. Hailing from Cleveland, Ohio. He stands 6 feet, 3 inches tall and weighs in at 205lbs. He is a former Ace Superior Champion and the other half of the WMW Tag Team Champions. He is also a member of the Pinnacle of Power. The Mentalist of WMW RYVEN!!!!!
['Grounds for Divorce' by Elbow plays and Ryven walks out to a moderate reception from the crowd. Ryven pauses at the top of the entryway, examining the layout of the ring and then nods to crowd as they cheer and makes his way down to the ring, sliding into the ring and standing next to Kronin, the two men talking to each other in apparent plan making.]
Jack Gene - And the WMW Tag Team champions are now in the ring and seem to be making no effort to hide that they mean to work together. After all, there are two titles and two of them, so this match is perfect for teamwork.
Bill Hughes - Until Ryven's ego decides he's had enough of being seen as Kronin's lackey and he stabs his so called friend in the back.
Wayne Inkster - And introducing the final competitor in this match. Hailing from Los Angeles, California. She stands 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighs in at 160lbs. She is the reigning and defending WMW Ace Superior Champion and is also a member of That Damn Awesome! She is WMW's Queen of Extreme, VALORA!!!!
['Prayer' by Disturbed plays over the PA and the crowd erupts into big cheers as Valora walks out, coming to a stop looking out over the ring and crowd with her usual bored, confident expression on her face. After standing there a moment, she makes her way down the ramp, making a detour and walking over to the stand holding the Great Lakes Championship and looks to Kronin, pointing to the belt yelling out 'That's mine!' Kronin responds by narrowing his eyes and urging Valora into the ring. Valora smirks and charges the ring, Father Nathan entering as well as Wayne Inkster slides out of the ring and Luna Pier calls for the bell as the brawl kicks off. Father Nathan makes a bee line for Druscilla and the two start trading punches. Kronin and AWS Man end up pairing off as Ryven cuts Valora off and the two of them trade punches as Adam Pyre leans back in the corner and watches the action unfold.]
Jack Gene - And we're underway here folks! The first annual Frostbite Brawl is off and running!
Bill Hughes - This is going to be an awesome match!
[Ryven pulls Valora to her feet and whips her towards the corner that Adam Pyre is in. Adam grins and runs out, holding his hand out. Valora grabs Pyre's hand and hops up, running along the ropes a bit until she hits the corner and jumps, spinning around catching Ryven as he ran in and taking him down with a head scissors. Adam Pyre plays to the crowd before he is knocked inside out by Kronin who takes him down with a running clothesline. AWS Man charges after Kronin but Kronin cuts him off with a boot to the gut and and lifts him up for a powerbomb but Valora dives in and takes Kronin down with a chop block to the back of his knee. AWS Man lands on top of Kronin and immediately goes for the cover, but Kronin kicks out before Luna Pier can even get into position to count. On the other side of the ring, Druscilla nails Father Nathan with a knee to the midsection and then hits him with a European uppercut that sends Father Nathan reeling backwards. She then charges forward and nails Nathan with a big time clothesline sending him to the mat. Druscilla holds up both hands into the air and basks in the crowd's boos.]
Jack Gene - And this is already shaping up like a hard match to follow here folks. We're do our best to bring you all the action here.
Bill Hughes - And you forgot to mention that That Damn Awesome! has been working all together so far.
[Druscilla pulls Father Nathan to his feet, lifting him up and hitting him with a backbreaker before yelling out and tossing him over her shoulders with a fallaway slam. As Druscilla gets to her feet, Ryven charges her but at the last second, Druscilla turns around and grabs Ryven, twirling him around for a full three revolutions before slamming him onto Father Nathan. Druscilla then looks over and runs across the ring, grabbing AWS Man in a full Nelson position before shifting to almost a Cobra Clutch hold and lifting AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) up and taking him to the mat with back suplex like slam. Druscilla lays on the mat, getting to a knee slowly meanwhile Kronin jumps to his feet nailing Adam Pyre with a big right hand, then a left hand, then another right hand before whipping Pyre into the corner. Valora runs and nails Druscilla in the side of the head with a dropkick, sending Dru to the mat and then turns to Kronin, but Kronin is ready and the two grapple, starting with a collar and elbow tie up. Valora tries for a hammerlock but Kronin reverses, spinning Valora around and grabbing her around the waist for a German Suplex, but Valora spins out of the move grabbing Kronin a full nelson but Kronin powers Valora up, trying for a snapmare like takeover but Valora lands on her feet and turns to face Kronin as the crowd applauds the display of technical wrestling skills. Kronin nods his head to Valora in respect and then grabs Valora's hand and whips her into the corner...and into Adam Pyre. Kronin runs in place feigning to build up speed before charging in full speed into the corner and nailing both Valora and Adam Pyre with a big body splash. As he backs out, Valora staggers out of the corner as Adam Pyre falls to the mat. Valora staggers trying to keep her balance, throwing a few punches at air before falling Flair style head first into Pyre's groin. Kronin plays air guitar and holds his hand up into the air, bringing a loud cheer from the crowd.]
Jack Gene - Well we're going full speed now, folks! Druscilla took out Father Nathan and Ryven and then took AWS Man down with an impressive move. Druscilla is obviously looking to continue and build on her big win over Audrie McLaughlin at Darwin's Revenge '09. But how bout that exchange between Kronin and Valora, folks? Valora matched the technical wrestling master of WMW move for move there!
Bill Hughes - Well she was an All-American wrestling in college. I'd expect someone with that honor to have some degree of technical wrestling skill. Besides, it's Valora and we all know she's not human. She's said so.
Jack Gene - Yeah well, I'd say Kronin got the better of the exchange given how Valora and Adam Pyre ended up.
Bill Hughes - Well we don't know how Adam and Valora get down. That might have just been an early start to tonight's private time for them.
[Adam Pyre gets to his feet, gritting his teeth and helps Valora to her feet and yells out 'B & E Mother Fucker!' Kronin turns just in time to get belted with Adam Pyre's big boot, sending him to the mat and Valora runs after Pyre, nailing Kronin with her I.C.E. Breaker punt kick to the head. Pyre points to the ropes and hollers instructions at Valora. As Druscilla gets to her feet, Adam Pyre jumps and nails her with a Six Minute Miracle, sending her back to the mat as Valora bounces off the ropes and runs towards Kronin, hitting him with a standing running shooting star press, going right into the cover but Kronin kicks out after a count of about one and a half and Valora gets to her knees, shaking her head, grabbing Kronin by the head and raining punches on his face until AWS Man pulls Valora off and says something to her. Valora nods and runs to the turnbuckles climbing up to the top. AWS Man pulls Kronin to his feet and the two exchange right hands for a few seconds before AWS Man nails Kronin with a knee to the midsection and lifts Kronin up, going for a Drop you on your Freakin' face! (Emerald Fusion) But as he gets Kronin up, Ryven charges in and dives, hitting AWS Man in the back of the knee with a chop block as Kronin counters the move into a reverse DDT. Ryven comes to his feet, just in time to get nailed with a missile drop kick from Valora who immediately hops onto the ropes and goes for a moonsault but Ryven gets his knees up, blocking the move as Valora lands on him. Adam Pyre turns to run into the fray but Father Nathan spins him around and nails Adam Pyre with a brutal combination of punches to the head and body before whipping Adam Pyre into the ropes, catching him as he comes off the ropes and plants him onto the mat with a big spinebuster.]
Jack Gene - My God! This match is insanely fast paced so far! For those having trouble keeping up with the action, Pyre, Valora and AWS Man continued their teamwork, with Pyre and Valora taking Kronin down with their B & E Special move. Adam Pyre nailed Druscilla with a Six Minute Miracle after that and then-
Bill Hughes - All hell broke loose.
Jack Gene - ...Basically, yes.
[In the ring, people slowly pull themselves to their feet and break into three groups. On one side of the ring, Kronin, Ryven and Father Nathan stand. On the opposite side of the ring, Valora, AWS Man and Adam Pyre stand, looking across at their foes. Druscilla, meanwhile has rolled out onto the floor and shakes her head, trying to clear her head from the blows that Valora and Adam Pyre doled out. AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) steps out and points to Kronin, calling him out. Kronin narrows his eyes and steps forward and the two men lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, but Kronin quickly takes control, locking AWS Man in a side headlock. AWS Man shrugs Kronin off and sends him into the ropes but Kronin hits the ropes hard and leaves his feet, slamming into AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) with a massive flying shoulder block that sends AWS Man flying back to the ropes and through them, causing him to topple to the mat next to Druscilla. Ryven charges towards Valora but Valora smirks and rolls out of the ring, reaching under the ring. Ryven slides to a stop and reaches through the ropes and grabs Valora by the hair but she responds by grabbing a solid metal baking sheet out and swings with all her strength, cracking Ryven in the head, the dull thud sound echoing through the WMW Arena as Ryven slumps back to a sitting position, a small cut on his forehead and Valora smirks, tossing the now dented cookie sheet aside. Father Nathan charges Adam Pyre and tries for a spear but Adam Pyre leap frogs over Father Nathan and as Nathan hits the ropes and comes back, Adam Pyre takes him onto his shoulders and tries for a Go Insane but Father Nathan reverses it and locks in a Dragon sleeper on Adam Pyre. Valora sees this and reaches into her pocket and puts on her brass knuckles, climbing to the top rope and leaping off, nailing Father Nathan with a flying punch with her brass knuckled hand, sending Nathan to the mat hard, where he rolls out of the ring onto the floor.]
Jack Gene - My God! Valora has decided to go hardcore here! Did you hear how hard she cracked Ryven with that metal sheet? And then she went airborne and nailed Father Nathan with brass knuckles! That has to be some kind of major sin, I would think.
Bill Hughes - I love Valora! I figured with the lax rules we'd see a return of the hardcore queen and she has not disappointed so far.
[On the floor, Druscilla pulls AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) to his feet but AWS Man counters with a punch to the gut and reaches out, grabbing Pen and takes Druscilla down with a spear before repeatedly slapping Druscilla with Pen. In the ring, Valora jumps to her feet and makes the 'you can't see me' gesture over Father Nathan's face and runs to the ropes, but as she hits the ropes, Kronin nails her with a clothesline, sending Valora toppling over the ropes and landing on top of AWS Man and Druscilla, breaking up the slap the freak around move. Adam Pyre spins Kronin around and tries for a punch, but Kronin blocks the punch, kicks Pyre in the gut and hits the Death by Metal causing the crowd to explode into loud cheers as Kronin goes right for the cover and Pier makes the count 1.....2....3!]
Wayne Inkster - Kronin is now eligible to grab a title and Adam Pyre is sent to the penalty box for 2 mins!
Jack Gene - Wow! Just like that, Kronin hits the Death by Metal and is now in a position to grab one of the titles!
Bill Hughes - Don't worry, AWS Man and Valora won't be far behind. Druscilla will likely take advantage of one less member of That Damn Awesome for a couple minutes as well.
[On the floor, AWS Man pulls Valora to her feet and gets in her face, asking what the hell she was doing but Valora pie faces him and pushes him away, diving into the ring and tries to break the pinfall up before Adam is eliminated for 2 mins, but gets there just after the three count. Valora growls and slams her hand into the mat in frustration. Both her and Kronin get to their feet and Kronin swings at her but Valora ducks under the punch and leaves her feet, jumping up and nailing Kronin with her brass knuckles, sending Kronin staggering backwards. Valora chases in after him and jumps onto his shoulders, spinning around and slamming him face first into the mat with her hurrancanrana face crusher. Valora then jumps to her feet and bounces off the ropes, slowing up as she walks towards Kronin, dusts her shoulder off and slams her fist into Kronin's face. On the floor, AWS Man glares at Valora but shakes his head and climbs the top turnbuckle pointing to Druscilla's prone body and jumps off, trying for a shooting star press, but misses as Druscilla rolls away and up to her feet, narrowing her eyes as she watches AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) crash and burn.]
Jack Gene - Valora starting to build momentum against the GLC, Kronin. A lot of fans have wanted to see Kronin and Valora get in the ring one on one and while we're still being denied that dream matchup, these two are continuing the rivalry they've been building for some time now. Outside the ring we have AWS Man Win the Freakin' Matchifier! No! Druscilla moved! Wow! What a match!
Bill Hughes - This is not good! First AWS Man ticked Valora off and prevented her from saving Adam Pyre and now he misses his win the freakin' matchifier! AWS Man needs to get going and quickly here!
[As AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) tries to get to his feet, Druscilla charges in and lifts him up onto her shoulders, holding him there for a moment before taking AWS Man to the floor hard with her version of the F-5. Druscilla rolls AWS Man over and goes for the cover, but Father Nathan pulls Druscilla off, kicking her in the gut and then backing up a few steps before running forward and hitting Druscilla with a scissors kick, taking her to the ground hard. Ryven moves over next to AWS Man and pulls him to his feet, lifting him up and ramming him back first into the steel ring post before turning around, turning AWS Man into a powerslam position and running forward, slamming AWS Man down with a running powerslam. Ryven goes for the cover and Luna Pier slides out of the ring to make the count 1....2....3no! Valora comes flying out of nowhere, landing on top of Ryven with a 450 splash, breaking up the pinfall attempt. Meanwhile, Kronin rolls out of the ring on the other side and makes his way over to a ladder, folding it up and turning towards the ring and moving towards it, sliding the ladder inside and following it, setting the ladder up under briefcase number 1.]
Jack Gene - My God! It looked like Druscilla would be the second person eligible to win here and in very impressive fashion by taking AWS Man down with her Dark Sacrifice, but Father Nathan broke that up, taking Druscilla down with a scissors kick. Ryven tried to capitalize on AWS Man but Valora came out of nowhere and broke up the pinfall after that brutal combination of moves from Ryven.
Bill Hughes - Yeah, how the hell did she even do that, Jack? Truck guys, show us a replay!
[The camera cuts to a replay screen and we see Valora run to the ropes, jump onto the top rope and springboard off into her 450 splash.]
Jack Gene - Love her or hate her, Valora has an insane amount of talent and is willing to risk everything in every match she's in. But Kronin is going for the win here, folks!
Bill Hughes - No! Someone stop him!
[Kronin sets up the ladder and begins his ascent as Valora gets to her feet, celebrating before turning and noticing Kronin and running forward, sliding into the ring and making a run up the ladder, the crowd's roar rising as she catches Kronin just as his hands grab hold of the briefcase. The two trade punches back and forth and then grab hold of each other, gingerly stepping up the ladder until they are both on the top rung of their respective sides, the other competitors joining the crowd in stopping their brawling and looking up at Valora and Kronin. At the penalty box, John Law checks his watch and nods, opening the door and letting Adam Pyre out. Adam walks out of the box and looks up at Valora and Kronin, a sadistic grin on his face as he yells up at Valora. "Go for it! Take his ass out!"]
Jack Gene - And Adam Pyre's 2 minutes are up! He's back into a match that has stopped dead in it's tracks to watch Kronin and Valora, both of whom are in dangerous territory at the moment..
Bill Hughes - I think we're about to have our first extreme moment of 2010, Jack...
[Valora grabs Kronin with one hand and uses her other hand to smash him in the face with the briefcase. She then pulls him into a sitting position on the very top rung of the ladder while locking him in a headlock position, tucking his head under her shoulder as she clasps her hands behind his back almost in a bearhug style hold before smirking sadistically and whispering something in Kronin's ear before lifting up quickly, and turning, letting Kronin's weight do all of the work as she hops off the ladder and hits him with a voodoo drop type move from the top of the ladder, going right into the cover as she falls on top of Kronin after the violent impact that leaves the crowd chanting 'Holy Shit! Holy Shit! Holy Shit!' Luna Pier drops down and makes the count 1.....2.....3!]
Wayne Inkster - Valora is now eligible to grab a briefcase and Kronin is sent to the penalty box for 2 mins!
Jack Gene - Holy... Cow is right! She nearly killed Kronin with that move! My God folks! Valora has just pinned the Great Lakes Champion! And for 2 minutes, she is the only one who can remove a briefcase, putting her in prime spot to do just that!
Bill Hughes - Yeah well... she has to be able to move first. She hasn't moved much since she hit the mat either. I think that big time move hurt Valora as much as it did Kronin.
[Druscilla slides into the ring as Valora tries to get to her feet and grabs Valora from behind, kissing her full on the lips before lifting Valora straight up into the air by the arms and slamming Valora face first into the mat the impact bringing another 'oooooh!' from the crowd as well as boos when Druscilla turns Valora over and pins her, grinding her elbow into Valora's face as she pins her. Pier makes the count 1.....2....3! Outside the ring, Father Nathan turns AWS Man around and punches him square in the paintball mask and then tries to whip AWS Man into the steel steps but AWS Man (Also Known as Bill) reverses and sends Father Nathan shoulder first into the steel steps. Adam Pyre slides into the ring, trying to break up the pinfall attempt of Druscilla but just misses getting there and pulls Druscilla up, hitting her with his throat thrust, sending Druscilla staggering back, trying to catch her breath. He tries for a six minute miracle but Druscilla catches the foot and smirks before Adam Pyre jumps up and nails her with an enziguri kick to the back of the head, taking Druscilla to the mat.]
Wayne Inkster - Druscilla is now eligible to win the match and Valora is sent to the penalty box for 2 minutes!
Jack Gene - Well, you turned out to be right, partner. Druscilla snuck in there and took advantage and scored herself a pinfall over Valora. Valora has been helped to the penalty box and has slumped down sitting next to Kronin. This two minute break helps them out, I think. It will give them both time to recover from that big time move that Valora just hit.
Bill Hughes - Yeah, and even if Druscilla manages to grab a briefcase, there is still going to be one left for Kronin or Valora to grab when they come out.
[Adam Pyre pulls Druscilla to her feet, but Druscilla counters with a low blow and then jumps to her feet, hitting Adam Pyre with a European uppercut, sending Pyre to the mat hard. Druscilla backs up, a wicked smirk on her face as Adam Pyre struggles to get back to his feet, Druscilla then charges and nails Adam Pyre in the side of his head with a running knee strike. Druscilla pulls Adam Pyre to his feet and whips him into the ropes and then telegraphs the back drop move, giving Adam Pyre an opening to kick Druscilla in her face, standing her up and dazing her for a moment. Adam Pyre looks outside the ring and sees AWS Man pulling Father Nathan to his feet and Ryven heading over to get into the fray and smirks before charging the ropes, diving over the ropes, taking all three men out with a big time suicide dive. As Adam gets off the pile, he glances up at the ladder and smirks evilly as he looks towards Valora in the penalty box and points to the ladder.]
Adam Pyre - Watch this, baby!
[Adam Pyre slides into the ring and glances over at Druscilla, who has retreated into the corner and is catching her breath, and nods as he moves the ladder to right near the ropes and climbs up the ladder, pointing to the three competitors on the floor and does the Joker thing yelling out "Here. We....GO!" Before leaping off the ladder, hitting all three opponents on the floor with his corkscrew moonsault legdrop, leaving all four men down and not moving much.]
Jack Gene - Holy Cow! Adam Pyre hit his killing joke move off the top of the ladder onto the floor, hitting AWS Man, Father Nathan and Ryven! It looks like a car accident at ring side!
Bill Hughes - Well, Adam Pyre did mention that he's tired of being written off as a joke and a non-factor. We're seeing him take out his frustrations on WMW's elite tonight. I also think he's trying to prove something to Valora.
[Druscilla comes out of her corner and looks around at the carnage and laughs, a smug, arrogant smirk on her face as she grabs the ladder and positions it under the briefcases before climbing up the ladder and reaching up, taking hold of briefcase number 1 and tugging on it, finally removing it from the hooks and climbing down the ladder, holding the briefcase over her head as the boos ring in heavily from ringside.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, Druscilla has captured one of the title briefcases!
Jack Gene - Wow! Druscilla took advantage of the situation there, the only other two fighters who could have taken a briefcase are in the penalty box!
Bill Hughes - Brilliant! Druscilla out-thought everyone! She let Adam wipe out himself and the competition and then climbed up the ladder and now Druscilla is guaranteed to be a champion at the end of the night! That means either Valora or Kronin just lost their title! Can you imagine if Druscilla is holding the Great Lakes Title now?
[Wayne Inkster comes over and grabs the briefcase from Druscilla and walks over to the announce booth and sets it on the desk, putting a card with Druscilla's name on it. As he does so, the bell rings and John Law opens the penalty box and a very pissed off Kronin steps out, narrowing his eyes as he looks straight at Druscilla.]
Jack Gene - Kronin back in the match now and he does not look happy. He realizes he may have just lost the Great Lakes Championship. I damn sure would not want to be Druscilla right about now!
Bill Hughes - You know what this also spells the end of? Ryven and Kronin's alliance. You can bet your ass that Ryven the wonder punk will be looking to take that second and only remaining belt for himself.
[Druscilla stands in the ring and eggs Kronin into the ring. The crowd jumps to it's feet cheering for Kronin as 'Kronin!' chants break out and Kronin runs and slides into the ring, coming to his feet and meeting Dru as the two go punch for punch. Meanwhile, on the floor, Adam Pyre grabs a new ladder and positions it on the floor, moving up to make a makeshift ramp, resting on the top of the ring ropes, leading from the penalty box into the ring. He looks to Valora and they both nod and Pyre pulls a Steel Chair from under the ring and slides it into the ring. Kronin glances back at the chair and Druscilla kicks him in the groin, before moving behind Kronin and taking him to the mat with a German Suplex. Druscilla gets to her feet, and looks to the timer and grabs the chair and stares down at Valora as she waits for the penalty box to open. John Law opens the door as the timer reaches zero and the bell rings and Valora runs up the ladder, jumping into a cartwheel as Druscilla swings the chair, jumping over the swing attempt, which finds Ryven's head as he climbs up onto the apron to try and get back into the match. Ryven staggers backwards from the blow and Pyre catches him as he falls off the apron, positioning Ryven and hitting the Go Insane on him. Back in the ring, Valora lands on her feet and immediately jumps into a pele kick, nailing Druscilla in back of the head and sending her over the top rope to the floor. Valora turns around and sees Kronin, as she quickly steps through the ropes onto the apron, grabbing the ropes, she jumps up and springboards off the top rope, flying through the air, going for a flying forearm shot but Kronin catches her in mid air and roars out as he charges forward and powerbombs Valora into the top turnbuckle, causing Valora to crumple into a heap in the corner by the turnbuckle.]
Jack Gene - ....I give up. I don't even know where to begin with what we just witnessed.
Bill Hughes - Jack... that action segment right there is why those four people are among the very best WMW has to offer.
Jack Gene - You're right about that, Bill. Druscilla and Kronin going punch for punch, Adam Pyre laying out the ramp for Valora, Druscilla tried to knock Valora out and had she hit Valora with that chair shot, Valora would be out of the match, but Valora showed her amazing athletic ability and avoided the shot, which found Ryven instead and to make matters worse, Ryven fell back onto Pyre, who hits the Go Insane. Ryven seems to be pretty much out of it at the moment after that.
Bill Hughes - Yeah, but that was only half the action. While Pyre was knocking wonder punk out, Valora hit her feet and was right back into the air, hitting Druscilla in back of the head with the pele, sending Druscilla out to the floor. Valora then tried for a springboard flying forearm shot, but Kronin caught her and powerbombed her into the turnbuckle. I swear with how fluidly Valora moves through the air, she has to be part bird.
[Pyre pulls Ryven to his feet and drags him to the ring, rolling him in and sliding in after him and grins, exploding towards Kronin, going for the Boom spear but Kronin jumps up and leap frogs Pyre charging full into the ropes and bouncing back towards Adam Pyre who hits the ropes on the other side and Kronin leaves his feet, nailing Adam Pyre dead center in the chest, sending Pyre flying back to the ropes and out to the floor at ringside. On the other side of the ring on the floor, Father Nathan has made his way over to Druscilla and pulled her to her feet, trading punches with her. AWS Man looks around and slides into the ring, covering Ryven. Luna Pier makes the count 1.....2... Kronin dives in trying to break up the count but AWS Man rolls out of the way, causing Kronin to land on Ryven instead. AWS Man pulls Kronin to his feet and and whips him to the corner where Valora is getting to her feet. Valora sees him coming and takes Kronin down with a drop toe hold, sending him face first into the turnbuckle. AWS Man climbs the other turnbuckle as Ryven rolls around, trying to recover. AWS Man leaps off of the turnbuckle and nails Ryven with a Shooting Star Press, going right into the cover. Luna Pier makes the count 1....2......3!]
Wayne Inkster - AWS Man is now eligible to remove a briefcase and Ryven has been sent to the penalty box for 2 minutes!
Jack Gene - Wow! Win the freakin' matchifier! AWS Man came out of nowhere and stole a pin and now he can claim to that last title belt, folks.
Bill Hughes - And wonder punk is out of the match for 2 minutes. Even better.
[Outside the ring, Father Nathan and Druscilla continue to brawl but Father Nathan buries a knee to the gut of Druscilla and then hits her with a sharp European Uppercut. Nathan darts in and kicks Druscilla in the gut, lifting her up onto his shoulders and rolling forward, driving his shoulders into her with a forward Samoan roll, but he keeps the hold on and grunts out as he lifts her up with him, lifting her up into a fireman's carry. He's about to go for the Go To Sleep when Pyre runs in out of nowhere as Nathan is still bent forward a bit and nails Father Nathan with an RKO style cutter. Pyre jumps up to his feet and plays to the crowd, basking in the boos as he pulls Druscilla to her feet, but Druscilla counters with a low blow before nailing Pyre with a European Uppercut. Valora gets up and runs across the ring and leaps over the ropes trying for an aerial attack but Druscilla catches Valora, and lifts her up onto her shoulders in a torture rack position as Pyre gets to his feet and charges forward. Druscilla nails him with a big boot, sending him back to the floor and then runs forward a bit, dropping down onto Pyre's chest as she thrusts her shoulders up into Valora's back sending Valora flying off Dru to the body.]
Jack Gene - Broken on the Rack from Dru! At the same time she dropped down onto Pyre! Pyre had been making a comeback in the match, taking Father Nathan out with a RKO-like cutter move as Nathan was trying to nail his Go to Sleep on Druscilla.
Bill Hughes - Bet you Pyre is wishing he had let Father Nathan hit the Go To Sleep on Dru now though.
[AWS Man climbs to his feet and makes his way over to the ladder and begins to climb up the ladder, the crowd booing as he makes his way for the case and AWS Man reaches out for the briefcase, pausing as he sees Kronin get to his feet and rush up the ladder, the two meet at the top and trade punches back and forth before AWS Man grabs the briefcase and slams the briefcase into Kronin's face, stunning him for a moment and then tries to pull the briefcase out before Kronin recovers and grabs AWS Man, pulling him close into position for a Vertical Suplex position. Kronin then looks around, at the crowd and holds up his hand with pinky and thumb extended and the crowd cheers loudly as Kronin lifts AWS Man up as if for a vertical suplex, but then turns around and jumps off the ladder, hitting the Hellevator on AWS Man from the top of the ladder as both men land with a thundering impact on the mat, both men hit hard, AWS Man arching his back and rolling over onto his side, Kronin hitting the mat so hard he bounces up to his knees before falling back face first onto the mat and then rolling out of the ring onto the floor. The crowd cheers loudly and begins chanting 'This is awesome! This is Awesome!']
Jack Gene - My God! Metal Meltdown! Metal Meltdown from the top of the ladder! I think Kronin just killed AWS Man with that move!
Bill Hughes - And himself too! God, did you hear how hard they hit the mat? This is what the ASC and GLC belts mean to these competitors! This is how bad people want to climb to the top of the mountain and stay on top of the mountain.
[Adam Pyre slides into the ring as Valora and Dru brawl on the outside of the ring, the loud thud of Druscilla hitting the steel steps echoing in the distance as Valora reverses a whip attempt from Druscilla. As Pyre looks around, he sees AWS Man lying on the mat and grins, running and sliding over, covering AWS Man as Luna Pier makes the count 1....2.....3!]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, Adam Pyre is eligible to climb the ladder and retrieve the briefcase and AWS Man is sent to the penalty box for 2 minutes.
Jack Gene - And...Adam Pyre seems to have broken the TDA working together plan by sneaking in and pinning AWS Man, eliminating him from the match for 2 minutes and putting himself in position to end the match and claim a title for himself.
Bill Hughes - God Damn it! I knew we couldn't trust Pyre! I hope AWS Man learns from this. It's Pyre that needs to be punished and Valora should be trusted! TDA would be even more awesome with Umbrage, Valora and AWS Man!
[Valora slides into the ring and her and Pyre stand toe to toe, looking at each other and then look up at the briefcase. Valora starts to dart for the ladder but Pyre catches her and grabs her by the arm, spinning her around. Valora counters with a boot to the gut and hooks Pyre's arms, lifting him and putting him on her back before jumping up into the air and hitting her version of the vertibreaker. Valora then jumps to her feet and bends down, planting a brief kiss on Pyre's cheek before climbing the ladder and reaching up and taking hold of the briefcase. Meanwhile, Druscilla slides into the ring and grabs hold of ladder and pushes the ladder out from under Valora but Valora jumps up and wraps her legs around the small stand to which the briefcase is tied, hanging herself upside down above the ring as she works to free the briefcase, finally doing so, hanging totally upside down, holding the briefcase in her hands to signify that she has control of the briefcase as the bell rings and Wayne Inkster steps back into the ring and the crowd cheers loudly.]
Wayne Inkster - Valora has claimed the second and final briefcase and thus ended the match! Let's give all 7 of the competitors in the match!
[Crowd cheers loudly and chants of 'That was Awesome!' break out as Valora drops the briefcase into Wayne Inkster's hands before freeing herself from her upside down hanging position and dropping down to the mat. Kronin, just getting up to the apron slams his fist on the ring apron in frustration.]
Jack Gene - The match is over! Druscilla and Valora are the champions! We're find out who has won which title momentarily here but while only two people may walk out of here with titles, everyone who competed have nothing to be ashamed about. Everyone gave it everything they had and made this first ever Frostbite Brawl an instant classic.
Bill Hughes - But Finally, TDA has ended Kronin's title reign as GLC! AWS Man would be laughing his ass off....if he didn't look so pissed off about it.
After Match Happenings
Sault St. Marie - Congratulations. Really. Congratulations to Adam, AWS Man (Also Known as Bill), Druscilla, Father Nathan, Kronin, Ryven and Valora. You all are some of the best talent Wrestling Midwest has to offer and you really rose to the occasion here tonight and made our first Frostbite Brawl a huge success. You also reinforced the fact that it was a good idea to book extra time for a match like this. I thought you guys were going to go all night, and keep me and these great fans on the edge of our seats the whole time. So... before we reveal the title holders, let's have a big hand for all 7 of these great competitors!
[The crowd continues cheering as all 7 fighters stand in the ring, looking around the crowd. Sault smiles once again and gestures towards Valora and Druscilla, urging them over.]
Sault St. Marie - Alright, now to get to the moment we have all been waiting for. It's time to find out who our Ace Superior and Great Lakes Champions are! Valora, Druscilla. Please join me over here to find out which belt you now own and to receive your hard won championship belt.
[Druscilla and Valora walk over towards Sault St. Marie who takes out a key and unlocks the briefcase Druscilla won earlier in the match and as the duo arrive there, Sault St. Marie smiles and opens the briefcase, revealing.... a big card showing the name of the Ace Superior Championship. Druscilla frowns a bit but nods and quickly resumes her smug, arrogant sneer as Sault St. Marie removes the Ace Superior Championship belt from it's case and hands it to Druscilla as he announces.]
Sault St. Marie - And... it seems that Druscilla can now call herself a 2-time Ace Superior Champion! Congratulations to the new Ace Superior Champion, DRUSCILLA!!!!
[Valora jumps up and down and pumps her fist in the air as the crowd goes nuts and Valora chants break out as Sault smiles.]
Sault St. Marie - And... that means the big winner and the new Great Lakes Champion is....VALORA!!!! A big congratulations to the newly crowned Great Lakes Champion!!!
[Sault St. Marie takes the Great Lakes Championship belt from it's case and then hands it to Valora who dances around in a circle, clutching the belt close to her chest and drops to her knees, resting her forehead on the metal Great Lakes Champion symbol, a few tears falling down her face. Kronin slides out of the ring and walks up, Sault warning him back but Kronin grabs a mic and taps Valora on the shoulder.]
Kronin - Hey... not to rain on your parade...but I'll be coming back for that title soon... but that's later... for now...
[Kronin smiles and pats Valora on the shoulder.]
Kronin - Congratulations. You deserve this.
[Kronin nods and heads off towards the back as Valora stands up and holds the Great Lakes Championship belt over her head as the crowd cheers loudly.]
Jack Gene - Big display of sportsmanship from Kronin there and I still can't believe this! We have two new champions, Druscilla is the new Ace Superior Champion, winning the title for the second time in her career and Valora has just begun her first ever Great Lakes Champion title reign! A hard fought, edge of your seat match that was a wild, wild ride but it came to an end and an emphatic end at that as both titles changed hands.
Bill Hughes - Yeah, but Valora lost the ASC and traded up for the GLC, when you stop and think about it, Oh man, this is gonna make Graveyard Shift a hundred times more awesome. Valora as our GLC! Can you imagine?
Jack Gene - A violent, psychotic, sociopath as our Great Lakes Champion... I don't think this will end well...
