Who Will Fight Scott Vyper for the MC at Blizzard ‘11?
Graveyard Shift 132 - WMW Arena in Cleveland, Ohio
Opening Commentary
Writer: Garvin
Jack Gene - Hello and welcome everyone to WMW Graveyard Shift 132 here on ESN! And we're back home here in Cleveland, and we have a major announcement, and this is breaking news that we just received as the broadcast started.
Bill Hughes - Huge. Just huge.
Jack Gene - My name is Jack Gene, I'm alongside Bill Hughes, and we just received word from Brad Johnson himself that he has decided who will be fighting for the Midwest Championship. But, it's not one person vs. Scott Vyper. It will be 4. 4 Challengers going to Blizzard 2011 to fight Scott Vyper for the Midwest Championship. But, before we get to that point, we've got to decide who will be those 4. Matrix, Father Nathan, Kronin, Valora Salinas, Jasmine Lucky and Xavier Langston, tonight, will be a part of the first of two Elimination Chase matches. What that means is, tonight, all 6 will be competing with the shot on the line. The first person to be pinned or submitted will be eliminated from the running. And, we'll do it once again at GS133. Another Elimination Chase match to determine who will fight Scott Vyper.
Bill Hughes - And, that's one hell of a main event.
Jack Gene - The Eric Dillinger's Hardcore Tournament continues tonight as well, and right now, we turn it over to Louie Cwik who is backstage with the Bastard Icon.
The Bastard is Watching
Writer: Eric Dillinger
[The camera cuts to the back where we see Eric Dillinger standing by with Louie Cwik. Cwik is in his usual business attire as Eric wears the black suit we saw him in on the last Graveyard Shift. In the background we can see Mike Barr and Andrew O’Reilly talking and joking. ]
Louie Cwik – Guys, I’m back here with the number one contender for the Shoot Championship and the mastermind behind the Blood Bowl Tournament, Eric Dillinger. Eric, what are your thoughts on the tournament thus far?
Eric Dillinger – Well, Louie, I’m happy with it. I have to say I didn’t expect that much excitement right out of the gates. We saw a lot of hardcore stuff that many fans had forgotten about and even introduced a concept that some wrestling fans aren’t too familiar with. Sure, there’s been exposure to hardcore wrestling, but there’s still so many people who refer to it as garbage wrestling and nothing more. Make no mistake that what these guys do out in the ring is nothing short of art. Maybe it doesn’t take as much physical skill as a corkscrew plancha, but it still takes skill to swing a chair. If you play it up as garbage wrestling, then, yea, any jerk off the street can pick up a chair and swing it, but it takes a professional to be able to land that swing and make it work.
Louie Cwik – That said, Eric, the other thing that’s on everybody’s mind is the Shoot Title rematch. Your training team has been down two people these past two weeks. Tell me, what are you doing to make up for it?
Eric Dillinger – Louie, it’s not about the number of guys you got on your training team, but the quality. My son, Jon, and my mentor, Styles, were two integral parts in my regimen and a great reason I did so well against the Champ. Jade has seen what I got and, if she’s finally got her head in the game, she’s going to be preparing for our rematch. So I have to branch out some more and be able to surprise her.
Louie Cwik – So is ground and pound gone?
Eric Dillinger – Ground and pound is not gone, but I’m bringing more to the fight this time around. See ya around, Louie. I got a tournament to watch.
Pirate Ninja VS Eugene
Writer: Eric Dillinger[The crowd is going insane as the night gets kicked off right with Eugene making his way to the ring to the delight of the crowd. He slaps the hands of the fans as he goes by.]
Bill Hughes and Jack Gene both agree that Eugene had a strong showing last week and that he has a bright future ahead of him if he can survive this match tonight with Pirate Ninja. Bill notes that he never expected the see the levels of violence he saw last Graveyard Shift from many of the competitors. Jack agrees and says that now, as the tournament has moved on, we can only expect things to get more extreme.
[Pirate Ninja’s music hits and the crowd pops again. Pirate emerges from behind the curtain with a bat covered in barbed wire and a chair in the other hand. He immediately guns for the ring and hurls the chair at his opponent who dodges it. Pirate slides into the ring and raises the bat, but Eugene gets a boot up in his gut. He throws a quick knee into his midsection and whips him, but Pirate reverses! Eugene goes flying off the ropes and Pirate buries the bat into his midsection, doubling him over. He now takes the bat and plants it in between his shoulder blades before taking it once again and raking him across the face with it. Eugene screams in pain as the blood runs down into his eyes. Pirate relents as he drops the bat and goes for the chair. Looking to finish this Pirate climbs the turnbuckle as Eugene stumbles around blindly. Pirate raises the chair, but Eugene falls into the top rope and causes Pirate to lose his balance. He’s crotched on the top turnbuckle and he drops the chair. Eugene, getting his wits about him, picks up the chair and throws it into Pirate’s face. Pirate is knocked off the turnbuckle and falls to the apron.]
Jack mentions that its only three minutes into the match and already Eugene is bleeding profusely from his stomach, his back, and his face. Bill says to wait another three because he’s sure that Pirate will bleeding just as well.
[Eugene goes after Pirate who is getting onto his feet and knocks him off the apron with a running dropkick. Pirate flies and connects his face onto the guardrail. Eugene exits onto the apron and hits his opponent with a flying body press that sandwiches him against the guardrail. Eugene stands and throws Pirate into the crowd before following after him. The fans part like the red sea as someone’s chair is picked up and used as a weapon on Pirate’s back. One of the fans hands Eugene a chain which he wraps around his fist. He punches Pirate in the gut as he stands and grabs him around the head. Holding him in a side headlock he lands hard punches on the top of his head. He leads Pirate away from ringside through the crowd. Punches are exchanged along the way until Eugene gets the better of Pirate and sends him out into the mezzanine.]
Bill makes a joke about Pirate getting him some nachos while he’s out there. Jack mentions that like the matches at the last Graveyard Shift this match could end anywhere.
[Pirate is whipped into a pay phone and Eugene follows in with a wicked punch. Pirate ducks it and Eugene hits the phone. Seizing the opportunity Pirate hits his opponent with the phone and begins to choke him with the chord. Eugene kicks his leg back and lands a low blow, but Pirate fights through the pain and takes him down with a bulldog. The fans have gathered all around the pair as they throw punches back and forth. Eugene gets the upper hand and goes for a weapon from the crowd, but as he does Pirate comes up from behind him and hits a low blow of his own. He takes the weapon intended for Eugene: a tire iron. He comes up from behind his opponent and uses it to perform a side Russian leg sweep. Pirate hangs on and chokes him with the crow bar. Eugene tries to fight out of it, but Pirate has the leverage of a rear naked choke. Soon Eugene passes out and the referee responding has to call the match.]

Mystery Woman VS Evan Cash
Writer: Eric DillingerBill and Jack are eager to see the next match when they notice a commotion in the audience.
[The Mystery Woman jumps the guardrail just as the arena’s attention is on her. The Angel of Death mask that was revealed to belong to Valora is hooked to her waist. She strolls the ringside area before coming to the announcer’s table and taking a seat on it.]
Bill tries to get her attention to tell her that the match is in the ring, but Jack says just to ignore her because you never know when she could go crazy.
[Evan Cash’ music hits and the newcomer bursts through the curtain and plays to the crowd. He slaps the hands of a few fans before sliding into the ring. He plays up the crowd some more before noticing The Mystery Woman ringside. He urges her to get into the ring, but she doesn’t seem to notice him. She’s looking off in the stands at something.]
Bill is telling her to get into the match before Evan comes and gets the best of her. Jack looks in the direction she’s looking and sees nothing but fans. Bill says Evan is leaving the ring.
[Evan wastes no time in punching the Mystery Woman with a hard right and then a left, knocking her off of her perch. She tries to regain her senses, but the big man boots her in the stomach and slams her head off of the announcer’s table. He rams her back first into the ring apron and takes her over with an exploder suplex on the concrete. She writhes in pain on the floor as Evan removes the monitors from the ringside table and other such things strewn about. Picking her back up he throws a knee into her midsection and tosses her onto the table. Jack and Bill go scrambling as Bill’s headset is torn off of him. Evan takes it and wraps the cord around her neck, choking her.]
Jack can’t believe the violence Evan is bringing to his opponent, a woman. Bill, barely audible without a mic, responds with this a hardcore match and to get used to it.
[Evan pulls the Mystery Woman onto the table with his choking and begins to assault her with a small light he forgot to remove. Now pulling her into a standing head scissors he begins to go for a pile driver, but the Mystery Woman halts him with a low blow. She utilizes a double-legged take down and throws him from the table with a sling shot suplex. Evan lands, jaw first, against the guard rail while she goes back to watching the crowd. Everyone watches as she puts her hands to her head and begins tugging at her hair.]
Bill gets his headset back on and yells at her to get serious. Jack says this is her chance to capitalize if Evan can’t regain his marbles. Bill says she must be trying to flag down the guy who sells peanuts.
[Evan regains his senses and climbs the table. The Mystery Woman takes no notice of him until he wraps her around the waist, lifts her up, and drives her through the table with a German Suplex. Her feet fly up over her head as the table gives way and she actually tumbles away. The crowd pops and Evan moves under the ring apron and begins to pull weapons from it. He finds the barbed wire bat from the previous match and throws it into the ring. He also pulls a table from underneath and slides it in. He pulls the dazed woman up to her feet and rolls her into the ring as well. When he follows through he takes the boots to the Mystery Woman and sends her into the turnbuckle. Following in with a giant clothesline he takes her back down to the mat with a running bulldog onto the bat. She shoots off the mat in pain, holding her face with blood seeping out from in between her fingers. Evan, meanwhile, takes the time to set up the table in the ring.]
Bill notices as she pulls her hands from her face a snarl comes across it. Jack says this doesn’t look well for Evan despite having the upper hand.
[Evan goes back to her and clubs her over the back with little effect. He continues to club her, but the pain seemingly isn’t registering in her head. He whips her, but the Mystery Woman reverses. When Evan comes barreling back toward her she takes him down with a drop toe hold onto the table. Evan’s head takes out a section of the end table and the crowd groans in unison at the way his neck bends. She moves over to the bat from before and takes it to the downed Evan Cash, hitting him over and over in the back. Before long she drops the bat and begins to pull at the barbed wire with her bare hands. Blood spurts from small lacerations but she continues on until she pulls a strand of the wire free. She puts Evan in an inverted STF, bridging backward as she does. Except, when she hooks Evan’s neck she doesn’t do it with her hands. Instead, she laces the barbed wire under his neck and begins to pull. Evan shoots to life with his eyes going wide and the barbs digging into his skin. Blood seeps out from his neck and drips onto the mat as he taps. The bell sounds and the Mystery Woman lets go, leaving Evan to clutch at his neck. She exits the ring and makes her way over to the announcer’s where she tells them that this toy is also broken.]
Preparing for the Main Event
Writer: Amanda and Rob[The scene opens up in the locker room of Father Nathan. He and Kronin are standing around talking.]
Kronin - I hate to say I told you so, Nate.... But I told you who the Angel of Death was.
Father Nathan - Yeah, yeah... But believe it or not, she dinnae mean to injure me. You didn't see the expression on her face when she hit me.
[Kronin smirks.]
Kronin - Technically, neither did you. She knocked you out cold, dude.
[Father Nathan opens his mouth to reply when the locker door opens and Valora walks in, Kronin steps in front of Father Nathan and shoves Valora.]
Kronin - Wrong locker room chica.
[Valora glares at Kronin and narrows her eyes.]
Valora - Careful, Kronin. Vyper already embarrassed your ass. Push me again and you won't even make it to the elimination matches.
[Kronin rolls his eyes.]
Kronin - Ah, so going back to being Vyper's bitch again? He had the nice Vyper's Angels set up going last time he was King [bleep] around here..
[Valora shakes her head and laughs a bit before stepping up toe to toe with Kronin and looking him in the eyes.]
Valora - It's so cute how you try to act like a bad ass. You used to be a bad ass once, and we both know that the reason you and Vyper hate each so much is because you two are exactly alike. Sooner or later, you're going to drop the knight act Kronin and join the rest of us here. But I'm not here to talk to you so step off and I'll save your ass kicking for the ring.
[Valora turns to Father Nathan.]
Valora - Talk some sense into your boy here. He's surrounded by enemies now that you're out of commission. Matrix, Scott Vyper, Xavier Langston... those three won't eliminate Kronin right away... they'll beat him down and injure him first. All three know what a threat to win the title he is.
[Nathan nods.]
Father Nathan - Yeah, a bloody shame some crazy woman nailed me in the head with a lead pipe. I mighta been able to balance the scales out.
[Valora smirks.]
Valora - Balance the scales? Nah Padre... I won't say it in front of him but all three of us know the full score. But I got something to ask you....
[Kronin shakes his head.]
Valora - I'm gonna get your spot, Nathan. Now that people know I'm back, management is gonna put me in the title chase. Kronin knows it too, which is why he's going all Alpha male on me. But... I want your blessings. I want you to look in my eyes and see that taking you out was a mistake, but not an accident.
[Nathan glances at Kronin and then back to Valora.]
Father Nathan - You and Kronin aren't exactly friends. You want me to bless you adding another enemy to Kronin? And what do you mean a mistake but not an accident? Is Kronin right that you took a cheap shot?
[Valora smirks.]
Valora - Kronin and I might not be friends, but at least we respect each other. Matrix and Vyper? It's gonna be two Hall of Famers defending their legacy and doing their damndest to make sure Kronin never gets that honor. Xavier Langston? He comes from my kinda neighborhoods, where the only thing that gets respect is brute force, and you do what you gotta do to get what you want... and he's realized how Vyper used him. He's gonna be taking people out anyway he can. Believe it or not, Kronin needs me in that match. He needs a hatchet man, or in my case, hatchet woman to do the dirty work he can't seem to muster up the guts to do...
[Valora takes a deep breath.]
Valora - As for the lead pipe thing.... it was a mistake but not an accident. The Mystery Woman... I know her. Because I trained her. I'm not totally sure if my training broke something in her or just enhanced what was already there... but we teamed together in the Mexican Lucha Libre feds... So... it's not an accident you got creamed because I created the little monster that came in and took my face. And it was in trying to put down the demon I raised that you got caught in the crossfire. I'm sorry bout that, Padre, I really am. When you heal up and I'm champ. I'll give you a title shot, to make amends. Think about it... I gotta get ready for my match tonight...
[Valora glances to Kronin.]
Valora - You wanna be champ? You got a choice to make. The Frostbite Brawl can't be won by the white knight in shining armor. You're going to have to get down and dirty.
[Valora turns and walks out of the locker room, leaving Kronin and Father Nathan alone, the two men looking at each other, both deep in thought.]

Divion Sadistik VS John Bundy
Writer: Eric Dillinger
Bill says that the crowd wants more hardcore action and Jack replies that they’ll get it with these next two competitors, noting that this is their second meeting in the ring.
[Divion Sadistik is announced into the arena and steps through the curtain. He takes a moment to play to the crowd, but that is cut short as John Bundy bursts through the curtain and takes him down with a lethal chair shot to the back. He cracks the chair across his back again and pins him on the ramp. It takes awhile for the referee to get to them, but the count is made to two before Divion kicks out. John yells at the ref for not making it there sooner and goes back to assaulting Divion with boots. His assailant gets the better of him when he stands and is taken down on the ramp with a huge body slam. Divion bounces off the ramp, but John isn’t finished. He pulls him up and takes him over to the edge of the ramp. Lodging a knee in his midsection he hoists him onto his shoulder. He goes to launch him off like a lawn dart, but Divion slips off and pushes him. John’s own momentum takes him off the edge of the ramp and through the production table below. A few sparks fly, but nothing major as EMTs rush the scene to attend to Bundy.]
Jack says that if Divion can get there in time he might be able to end this match before it ever hits the ring. Bill says it’s going to take more than that to get rid of Bundy.
[Divion makes the pin amidst the rubble, but Bundy is able to kick out before the three count. Divion looks bewildered as Bundy rolls to his knees and gets to his feet. The two men begin trading punches, back and forth, until Divion gets the upper hand and takes Bundy in a side headlock. He leads his opponent toward the ring, but halfway he is stopped with a belly to back suplex on the concrete. Now it is Bundy’s turn to lead his opponent to the ring with boots to the midsection urging him along the way. Divion makes it to his knees and stops the attack with a shot to the gut. Seizing the opportunity he bounces Bundy’s head off the guard rail. With his opponent stunned he jumps on top of it and flies back with an asai moonsault. Divion rolls off of him and moves to the ring apron where he pulls a table and tool box out from under it. He slides them both into the ring before going back to Bundy who has shook the pain off. Bundy levels him with a short arm clothesline. Now the big man goes for the ring steps, dislodges them, and zeroes in on his opponent. When Divion stands he rams them into his face, sending him into the guard rail. Bundy hits him in the face again and backs up. He goes for one last ram, but Divion dropkicks it back into him. Sadistik slips away, but Bundy chases him into the ring. When Bundy stands he’s hit by the tool box, whose contents flies all over the ring on impact. Bundy falls to the mat and Divion goes to work, setting up the table and thumbing through the contents.]
Bill takes note of the gash on Bundy’s head resembling a vagina as Jack pays close attention to what Divion is finding, most notably a screw driver.
[Divion pushes Bundy chest first across the middle rope and pulls his head back. Taking the screw driver he pushes it into the bleeding gash on his forehead as Bundy tries to fight him off. Finally Divion drives the screwdriver into his face with one last stab, seemingly ripping the gash open further. Blood now flows freely from Bundy’s head. John fumbles around the mat blindly for a moment as Divion stalks him. He tries to come up from behind him, but Bundy turns a drives a mallet into his gut. Divion stumbles back with the wind knocked out of him as Bundy gets to his feet. John pushes Divion into the turnbuckle and takes shoulder blocks to him. He whips him to the ropes and catches him on the rebound with a back body drop that sends him through the table. Feeling the blood loss Bundy slumps against the ropes, but soon shakes the cobwebs. He hits the ropes intending for the Big Splash, but Divion jumps up and attempts his Jumping STO. Bundy has it telegraphed from their last match, though, and blocks it with a right hand. Sadistik falls against the ropes, but comes back with a huge right of his own. Bundy goes for another punch, but Divion ducks underneath and kicks him in the balls. He takes him down with the jumping STO. He pins, 1-2-3, and it’s over.]
Jack congratulates Divion on the hard fought victory. Bill says he’s eager to see the triple threat.

Valora vs. Xavier Langston vs. Matrix vs. Kronin vs. Jasmine Lucky
Writer: Amanda
[The shot opens up at ringside.]
[The shot opens up at ringside.]
Jack Gene - Well Fans, it's that time again. Main event, time and this match couldn't get much bigger. Former Great Lakes Champion and Hall of Famer Matrix. Former 3 Time Great Lakes Champion Champion and many feel future Hall of Famer, Kronin. Former Great Lakes Champion and another fighter many feel is a future Hall of Famer, Valora. Newcomers to the major championship, Xavier Langston and Jasmine Lucky. All of them fighting for the right to face the newly crowned Midwest Champion in the 2nd Annual Frostbite Brawl at Blizzard.
Bill Hughes - That's right. This week one person will be removed from the title race, our next Graveyard Shift will see another person removed and the final 3 will face off against Scott Vyper in the Frostbite Brawl!
Jack Gene - And you gotta say that if the Champ wants any two people eliminated, it's got to be Valora and Kronin. Not only are they likely the biggest threats to his title reign, but they both fought in the first Frostbite Brawl and Valora became the GLC in that brawl.
Bill Hughes - That's right. Valora and Druscilla were the winners of the 1st ever Frostbite Brawl, but this go around, there will be only one title up for grabs and I'm not so sure Vyper would like to see Valora eliminated. Vyper and Valora were the lynchpin of the original Pinnacle of Power, before that hippie treehugger Kronin came in and ruined it.
Jack Gene - No you don't! Jade recruited Kronin after SHE charted a new path for the Pinnacle. If you don't like the PoP under Jade, you have to take a shot at her!
Bill Hughes - .... Fine. Jade back then had the wrong ideas. But since then, she's really blossomed into her own girl. Her time with the Daughters of Darkness really gave her that Killer instinct that she had been missing.
Jack Gene - ....Touche. Anyways, let's not waste any more time and get right to Wayne Inkster in the ring for the fighter introductions!!
[The camera switches to the ring and Wayne Inkster stands there smiling.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, this next match is set for one fall and it is you Main Event of the evening. It is the special Frostbite Brawl Elimination Match! 5 Fighters currently have a claim to be the number one contender. Tonight, one of those fighters will be eliminated in this very ring. At Graveyard Shift 133, the remaining four fighters will fight and will knock that number down to three. Those three will then go on to Blizzard and face the WMW Midwest Champion Scott Vyper in the Frostbite Brawl match!!
Bill Hughes - That's right. This week one person will be removed from the title race, our next Graveyard Shift will see another person removed and the final 3 will face off against Scott Vyper in the Frostbite Brawl!

Introducing first, hailing from Las Vegas, Nevada. She stands 5 feet, 7 inches and weighs in at 145lbs. She is JASMINE LUCKY!!!
["Unstoppable" by Rascal Flatts hits the PA system and a three-leaf clover appears on the big screen. Jasmine Lucky appears on the ramp with one arm up, trying to cheer the fans on. They give a mixed reaction, some loving her and most hating her. Once in the ring, Jasmine jumps up and down, keeping herself limber]
Jack Gene - Well, here comes Jasmine Lucky. I gotta say, I don't know how or why she got into this match, but with her skill set she might be able to surprise a few people and make something happen.
Bill Hughes - You must've had whatever the hell Kronin's smoking. Jasmine definitely deserves to be here! She only hasn't done anything because she's been held back! WMW management continually booked her in matches with nobodies, so that win, lose or draw, it would ensure she didn't move up! This is her big chance! She can finally show everyone that star that is Jasmine [bleepimg] Lucky! Also, her greatest weapon... is that NO ONE in this match will be taking her seriously. Remember, she doesn't have to pin someone... she just has to survive until someone else gets beat.
Jack Gene - Well, that last point was a good one at any rate. That's right fans, the first person to be pinned or to tap out loses and is eliminated. The remaining four will, as Wayne said, go on to GS 133 where they will fight the second and final elimination round of matches.
[The camera switches back to Wayne Inkster.]
Wayne Inkster - Introducing next, hailing from Newark, New Jersey. He stands 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weighs in at 220lbs. He is XAVIER LANGSTON!!!!
BREATHE!
OH!
WHOO! WHOO! WHOO!
[The song being played is "Breathe" by Fabolous, and as the body of the rap starts, the curtains part and in walks Xavier Langston, a sole white spotlight focused on him as the lights dim slightly. Xavier is wearing a sleeveless black trenchcoat, black wrestling tights, and a pair of black wrestling boots. His appearance prompts a mixed reaction from the crowd: some are politely applauding the newcomer, giving him a shot, while others are booing him for his ties with the now-defunct World Wrestling Alliance. Xavier walks down the aisle, keeping a smile on his face. Fans who have their hands outstretched looking for a high five receive it. Fans with their fingers outstretched are ignored. Xavier slides into the ring and flips to his feet, his trenchcoat billowing in the wind behind him. Staring right at his opponent, he slips the sleeveless trench off of his body, letting it fall off of his arms. He catches it with his right hand and, in one motion, flicks it out of the ring. He then raises his left hand in the air in a fist, drawing another mixed reaction as the lights come up and the spotlight dims.]
Bill Hughes - Now HERE is a man that can win it all! Xavier kicked Kronin and Father Nathan in the head so often, I expected him to go all Mortal Combat with a fatality on us!
Jack Gene - ...Seriously? A mortal Kombat reference? Still... Langston DID appear to make the most of his time in the spotlight and not many people will argue he doesn't belong in a match as big as this. Though, I promise you Kronin hasn't forgotten about some of those kicks.
Wayne Inkster - And Introducing the third competitor in this match. Hailing from Tampa Bay, Florida. He stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighs in at 230lbs. He is a WMW Hall of Famer and a former Great Lakes Champion, he is MATRIX!!!!
[The lights in the arena dim as a guitar solo begins. The big screen shows a 'Countdown to Cyber Jump' starting from 5 and moving downwards. Once it gets to 0, the chorus to "With Arms Wide Open" by Creed begins. The lights flash blue and white as Matrix walks out wearing a black trenchcoat, sneakers and gloves. He heads down to the ring without much glamor or drama, playing to the crowd on the turnbuckle.]
Jack Gene - Three fighters in and the crowd has given mixed reactions, some liking, others not really caring for the fighters, but you gotta think that's about to change with the final two fighters in tonight's match up here in Chicago.
Bill Hiughes - But Kronin wasn't even BORN here... he just lives here... he's like those people who jump on a team's bandwagon when they're having a great season and then jump off when the team sucks. And show some damn respect to Matrix! He's trying to help save these people from idiots like Father Nathan and Kronin! I bet you Valora digs the Cyberspace lifestyle. She, like Matrix is the pinnacle of humanity! Those two should team up.
Jack Gene - I think that partnership would last.... maybe 5 seconds before Valora beat him bloody.
]Bill Hughes - Hmph. Says you.
Wayne Inkster - And introducing next. She hails from Los Angeles, California. Standing 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing in at 165lbs. She is a former Great Lakes Champion, and is the Hardcore Icon of WMW, she is VALORA!!!!
[The lights dim and over the PA blairs a portion of song:]
THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST STAND!
I WASH THE BLOOD FROM MY HANDS!
I AM. WARRIOR, I'M FEARLESS
NO PAIN, NO MERCY NO WEAKNESS I, I, I'M FEARLESS!
[The rest of the song, 'Fearless' by Ozzy Osbourne plays over the PA as Valora walks out, in place of her usual hoodie, she wears a Chicago Bears Jersey, with the Number 13 on it and her name on the back. The sight of Valora and Valora wearing the jersey of the home team brings an explosive cheer from the crowd. Valora pauses at the top of the entryway and plays to the crowd before punching the floor in front of her three times, the third time springing up and jumping forward a bit. As she lands she breaks into a dead sprint and slides into the ring, moving to one of the corners and sinking back into it, eying the other competitors with her trademark smirk as the crowd chants "Val's gonna kill you!"]
Jack Gene - Well, there she is folks, Valora. Hardcore Icon of WMW. And the big wild card in this match.
Bill Hughes - She's back, Jack! She's really back home where she belongs in WMW! Jordan Keyser, Brad Johnson and the ESN management team are totally on my Christmas gift list now!
Wayne Inkster - And now, for the final competitor in this match. He hails originally from Berlin, Germany but makes his home right here in CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. He stands 6 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs in at 265lbs. He is a 3 time Great Lakes Champion and the Master of Rock and Shock, he is KRONIN!!!!
['Sonne' by Rammstein plays over the PA and the crowd goes nuts as Kronin walks out and pauses at the top of the entryway, looking over the people in the ring and sighing, shaking his head. He then points at Xavier and again at Valora, narrowing his eyes and dragging his thumb across his throat as he makes his way down the ramp, running and sliding in, at which point all hell breaks loose with all 5 fighters charging each other. Wayne Inkster barely avoids getting tagged by a Matrix clothesline and the ref, John Law, calls for the bell.]
Jack Gene - Well, Kronin wasted no time in pointing out who he was after in this match and I gotta say, I wouldn't wanna be Valora or Xavier Langston right now. Kronin is much like the famous Chicago Linebacker, Brian Urlacher. Big, powerful, agile. athletic. and deadly.
Bill Hughes - Yeah? He seemed less then super human when Vyper knocked him the [bleep] out a few weeks back.
[After a few minutes, the 5 fighters separate from each other and backpedal, each scanning his or her opponents, looking for an opening. Jasmine Lucky glances over at Valora and points to Kronin, yelling something. Kronin laughs and eggs both women on, prompting Valora to shrug and head over to Jasmine Lucky, whipping her towards Kronin, spinning the female Lucky around twice to gain momentum and Jasmines executes a perfect dropkick to Kronin's knee, dropping him to a knee. Kronin looks up in time to get sandwhiched as Jasmine jumps to her feet and nails Kronin in the back of the head with a jumping, roundhouse kick at the same time Valora runs up and nails her Trouble in Paradise style kick. Kronin Remains half standing, half to a knee for a second, a dazed look on his face before falling face first on the mat, Ric Flair style. Jasmine celebrates and talks trash to Kronin, but her celebration is short lived as Xavier Langston jumps in and plants a massive foot dead center mass of Jasmine Lucky, sending her tumbling back and out of the ring to the floor.]
Jack Gene - Well.... I don't think Kronin will make the mistake of daring the two high flying women in the match to team up again. That was a wicked combination there. We should remind our fans that Jasmine Lucky does have some MMA experience. But Xavier Langston took Jasmine out for a bit with that Who Shot Ya?
Bill Hughes - Yes he did, and Matrix is being smart and letting the other 4 beat the hell out of each other...
[Indeed, Matrix has retreated to a corner where he rests against the turnbuckle looking over his foes, waiting for an opening. In the ring, Xavier Langston and Valora now stand face to face in the middle of the ring talking to each other. Xavier leans in and whispers something to Valora that causes her to smirk and nod in agreement. Without warning, Xavier Langston whips Valora towards Matrix at high speeds. Matrix tries to defend himself but is too late as Valora reaches him and jumps up, planting both of her feet in his stomach before falling back and vaulting Matrix out of the corner with a monkey flip... right into another Leaping Yakuza kick from Xavier Langston. Matrix crumples to the mat landing right next to Kronin as the crowd groans in pain at the move. Valora jumps up to the top turnbuckle and leaps off, nailing a five star frogsplash on both Kronin and Matrix, Kronin taking the brunt of the impact, though.]
Jack Gene - My God! Well, you didn't have to wait long for this match to get going, folks. Valora is making a series of alliances, first working with Jasmine to take Kronin down, and now working with Xavier Langston to bring Matrix down with just a brutal combination there!
Bill Hughes - That move was so awesome, I'm going to steal one of Kronk's phrases and say it rocked several different kinds of awesome. God, I feel all dirty and hippie like just saying it...
[Valora scrambles over and covers Kronin. John Law drops down and counts 1....2... but the pin is broken up by Xavier Langston and his kick to the head of Valora. Xavier Langston then makes the cover on Kronin but that pin is broken up at 2 by Jasmine who hits a slingshot legdrop from outside. Matrix, meanwhile, tries to get to his feet, using the ropes to help him. Jasmine Lucky runs over and grabs Valora from behind, pulling Valora to her feet and trying for a reverse DDT but Valora blocks and counters it into a spinning neckbreaker. Valora jumps up and play to the crowd and then quickly dodges the Who Shot Ya from Xavier Langston. Valora jumps onto the ropes and springboards off the ropes trying for a hurrancanrana but Xavier catches her and turns, planting her with a powerbomb onto Jasmine Lucky.]
Jack Gene - Wow! And that's why they call it high risk, folks! Valora managed to counter Jasmine Lucky's sneak attack, then managed to dodge Lagston's Who Shot Ya kick, but Xavier was one step ahead of Valora and powerbombed her onto Jasmine Lucky, and Bill how many people can say they were one step ahead of Valora on something?
Bill Hughes - I can count the number on one hand. But Langston look out! Hippie attack alert!!!
[Kronin stands up while Xavier plays to the crowd. He stands behind Xavier Langston with his arms crossed across his chest. Langston eventually senses he's not alone and turns around trying to punch Kronin but Kronin catches the punch and nails Xavier with a big time right hand, before pulling Xavuer Langston back towards him and taking the man down with a short arm clothesline. Kronin pulls Xavier Langston to his feet and whips him into the ropes and tries for a discus clothesline but Xavier stops short and dodges the Clothesline and nails Kronin with a boot to the gut. He tries for a DDT, but Kronin drives him into the corner with a shoulder charge/tackle and begins hammering on Langston with right hands until Langston slumps down into a sitting position in the corner. Kronin then turns and runs at Matrix knocking the man down with a clothesline. He picks Matrix up and holds the man in place going for a vertical suplex but Xavier Langston comes out of the corner and takes Kronin down with a chop block. Matrix falls right on top of Kronin and tries for a pinfall but Kronin kicks out after 1.]
Jack Gene - The former Great Lakes Champ trying to get the match going his way but Langston isn't done yet and took him down with a vicious chop block there.
Bill Hughes - There's way too much action to follow here! My head hurts!
[The match continues on back and forth for a couple of minutes, no fighter having an advantage long before another fighter comes in to take advantage. Eventually, Kronin stands in the middle of the ring while the four corners of the ring are each occupied by Matrix, Valora, Xavier, and Jasmine.]
Jack Gene - I would not want to be Kronin right now. He is literally facing enemies on all sides of him.
Bill Hughes - This is great! We're finally going to see the end of Kronin!
[Kronin stands in the center of the ring and calls his four opponents out, urging them to come at him and at once, all four do just that very thing. Matrix reaches him first but Kronin sidesteps the attack and Matrix runs right into and through Jasmine, taking her down with a big time Clothesline. Valora reaches Kronin next and jumps into the air but Kronin catches her and throws her towards Xavier Langston with a fallaway slam. Langston leaps into the air, vaulting over where Valora hits the mat and turns it into a Who Shot Ya? Sending Kronin staggering back into the ropes. Xavier Langston charges in after Kronin and Kronin tries to backdrop Xavier Langston out onto the apron, but Xavier Langston lands on the outside apron. He tries to send a kick Kronin's way but Kronin catches the kick and pulls Langston in, trying for a overhead T-bone Suplex to bring Langston back in the ring, but Langston catches the rope with his free foot to help him block the move. He tries for another attack but both he and Kronin topple to the ground when Valora charges up and nails Kronin in the back of the head with a dropkick, sending him into Xavier, and sending both men to the floor at ringside. Valora's turn as top fighter ends quickly, however when she turns around just in time to be lifted up by Matrix and planted onto the mat with the 180 Spinebuster that Matrix calls Cyberspace. Matrix goes for the cover and nearly gets a three count before Valora kicks out.]
Jack Gene - That was the type of high level competition and wrestling excellence you've come to expect from Wrestling Midwest, fans! Kronin stands tall against four attackers, but in the end the numbers game caught up with him and just in that exchange we saw momentum flow from Kronin to Xavier Langston back to Kronin to Valora and then to Matrix.
Bill Hughes - But I love it! Let them all fight for the right to get their title shot! This is great!
[Matrix plays to the crowd and stomps on Valora, who rolls out to the floor just as Kronin whips Xavier into the ring. Valora charges and takes Kronin down with a spear, hammering him with right hands as the crowd goes nuts. In the ring, Jasmine Lucky comes up behind Matrix and kicks him in the groin from behind before spinning around and planting her foot in the back of Matrix's head, sending him face first to the mat. Jasmine then moves towards Xavier Langston as he smirks and prepares for her, the two taking up fighting stances.]
Jack Gene - This has broken down now! Kronin and Valora are brawling outside and that gives Matrix, Xavier and Jasmine a golden opportunity to end the match in the ring but WOW!!!
[The camera switches to an ESN sponsored replay that shows Xavier vaulting himself over the ropes and taking out Valora and Kronin on the outside of the ring. The camera then switches back to real time with all three fighters pulling themselves up to their feet. Valora comes right at Xavier, throwing a flurry of punches which Xavier defends by blocking, ducking and weaving through and then throws a kick to the side, nailing Kronin as he gets up. The distraction allows Valora to nail Xavier with her vicious Aztec Double Elbow slash, which sends Xavier staggering backwards. Valora starts to charge forward but Kronin cuts her off with a clothesline that turns her inside out and then he turns and catches Xavier with a boot to the gut. Xavier tries to return the favor but Kronin catches the foot, pulls him in close and takes him to the floor with a T-Bone Suplex. In the ring, Jasmine turns around and sees Matrix getting to his feet again. She charges him but he springs forward and catches her, planting her with his Cyberspace 180 Spinebuster. He then goes into the cover and John Law counts 1....2....3! The bell rings and Xavier, Kronin and Valora look to the ring to see what's just happened.]
Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, the winner of the match....MATRIX!!! Jasmine Lucky has been eliminated from the Midwest Championship race!
Jack Gene - Wow! Matrix sneaks in the back door and wins the match while Valora, Kronin and Xavier were preoccupied! We're down to four people now, Kronin, Valora, Xavier, and Matrix!
Bill Hughes - Haha that was brilliant strategy by Matrix! He waited until the right moment and struck! And all four of those fighters know that pretty soon, one more of them will be gone.
Jack Gene - But which one? That's the question we'll answer at GS 133! That's all the time we have tonight folks!
[The scene slowly fades to black as 'With Arms Wide Open' by Creed plays and Matrix stands alone in the ring looking down at Valora, Kronin and Xavier with his own smirk on his face, holding his arms out.]
["Unstoppable" by Rascal Flatts hits the PA system and a three-leaf clover appears on the big screen. Jasmine Lucky appears on the ramp with one arm up, trying to cheer the fans on. They give a mixed reaction, some loving her and most hating her. Once in the ring, Jasmine jumps up and down, keeping herself limber]
Jack Gene - Well, here comes Jasmine Lucky. I gotta say, I don't know how or why she got into this match, but with her skill set she might be able to surprise a few people and make something happen.
Bill Hughes - You must've had whatever the hell Kronin's smoking. Jasmine definitely deserves to be here! She only hasn't done anything because she's been held back! WMW management continually booked her in matches with nobodies, so that win, lose or draw, it would ensure she didn't move up! This is her big chance! She can finally show everyone that star that is Jasmine [bleepimg] Lucky! Also, her greatest weapon... is that NO ONE in this match will be taking her seriously. Remember, she doesn't have to pin someone... she just has to survive until someone else gets beat.
Jack Gene - Well, that last point was a good one at any rate. That's right fans, the first person to be pinned or to tap out loses and is eliminated. The remaining four will, as Wayne said, go on to GS 133 where they will fight the second and final elimination round of matches.
[The camera switches back to Wayne Inkster.]
Wayne Inkster - Introducing next, hailing from Newark, New Jersey. He stands 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weighs in at 220lbs. He is XAVIER LANGSTON!!!!
BREATHE!
OH!
WHOO! WHOO! WHOO!
[The song being played is "Breathe" by Fabolous, and as the body of the rap starts, the curtains part and in walks Xavier Langston, a sole white spotlight focused on him as the lights dim slightly. Xavier is wearing a sleeveless black trenchcoat, black wrestling tights, and a pair of black wrestling boots. His appearance prompts a mixed reaction from the crowd: some are politely applauding the newcomer, giving him a shot, while others are booing him for his ties with the now-defunct World Wrestling Alliance. Xavier walks down the aisle, keeping a smile on his face. Fans who have their hands outstretched looking for a high five receive it. Fans with their fingers outstretched are ignored. Xavier slides into the ring and flips to his feet, his trenchcoat billowing in the wind behind him. Staring right at his opponent, he slips the sleeveless trench off of his body, letting it fall off of his arms. He catches it with his right hand and, in one motion, flicks it out of the ring. He then raises his left hand in the air in a fist, drawing another mixed reaction as the lights come up and the spotlight dims.]
Bill Hughes - Now HERE is a man that can win it all! Xavier kicked Kronin and Father Nathan in the head so often, I expected him to go all Mortal Combat with a fatality on us!
Jack Gene - ...Seriously? A mortal Kombat reference? Still... Langston DID appear to make the most of his time in the spotlight and not many people will argue he doesn't belong in a match as big as this. Though, I promise you Kronin hasn't forgotten about some of those kicks.
Wayne Inkster - And Introducing the third competitor in this match. Hailing from Tampa Bay, Florida. He stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighs in at 230lbs. He is a WMW Hall of Famer and a former Great Lakes Champion, he is MATRIX!!!!
[The lights in the arena dim as a guitar solo begins. The big screen shows a 'Countdown to Cyber Jump' starting from 5 and moving downwards. Once it gets to 0, the chorus to "With Arms Wide Open" by Creed begins. The lights flash blue and white as Matrix walks out wearing a black trenchcoat, sneakers and gloves. He heads down to the ring without much glamor or drama, playing to the crowd on the turnbuckle.]
Jack Gene - Three fighters in and the crowd has given mixed reactions, some liking, others not really caring for the fighters, but you gotta think that's about to change with the final two fighters in tonight's match up here in Chicago.
Bill Hiughes - But Kronin wasn't even BORN here... he just lives here... he's like those people who jump on a team's bandwagon when they're having a great season and then jump off when the team sucks. And show some damn respect to Matrix! He's trying to help save these people from idiots like Father Nathan and Kronin! I bet you Valora digs the Cyberspace lifestyle. She, like Matrix is the pinnacle of humanity! Those two should team up.
Jack Gene - I think that partnership would last.... maybe 5 seconds before Valora beat him bloody.
]Bill Hughes - Hmph. Says you.
Wayne Inkster - And introducing next. She hails from Los Angeles, California. Standing 5 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing in at 165lbs. She is a former Great Lakes Champion, and is the Hardcore Icon of WMW, she is VALORA!!!!
[The lights dim and over the PA blairs a portion of song:]
THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST STAND!
I WASH THE BLOOD FROM MY HANDS!
I AM. WARRIOR, I'M FEARLESS
NO PAIN, NO MERCY NO WEAKNESS I, I, I'M FEARLESS!
[The rest of the song, 'Fearless' by Ozzy Osbourne plays over the PA as Valora walks out, in place of her usual hoodie, she wears a Chicago Bears Jersey, with the Number 13 on it and her name on the back. The sight of Valora and Valora wearing the jersey of the home team brings an explosive cheer from the crowd. Valora pauses at the top of the entryway and plays to the crowd before punching the floor in front of her three times, the third time springing up and jumping forward a bit. As she lands she breaks into a dead sprint and slides into the ring, moving to one of the corners and sinking back into it, eying the other competitors with her trademark smirk as the crowd chants "Val's gonna kill you!"]
Jack Gene - Well, there she is folks, Valora. Hardcore Icon of WMW. And the big wild card in this match.
Bill Hughes - She's back, Jack! She's really back home where she belongs in WMW! Jordan Keyser, Brad Johnson and the ESN management team are totally on my Christmas gift list now!
Wayne Inkster - And now, for the final competitor in this match. He hails originally from Berlin, Germany but makes his home right here in CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. He stands 6 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs in at 265lbs. He is a 3 time Great Lakes Champion and the Master of Rock and Shock, he is KRONIN!!!!
['Sonne' by Rammstein plays over the PA and the crowd goes nuts as Kronin walks out and pauses at the top of the entryway, looking over the people in the ring and sighing, shaking his head. He then points at Xavier and again at Valora, narrowing his eyes and dragging his thumb across his throat as he makes his way down the ramp, running and sliding in, at which point all hell breaks loose with all 5 fighters charging each other. Wayne Inkster barely avoids getting tagged by a Matrix clothesline and the ref, John Law, calls for the bell.]
Jack Gene - Well, Kronin wasted no time in pointing out who he was after in this match and I gotta say, I wouldn't wanna be Valora or Xavier Langston right now. Kronin is much like the famous Chicago Linebacker, Brian Urlacher. Big, powerful, agile. athletic. and deadly.
Bill Hughes - Yeah? He seemed less then super human when Vyper knocked him the [bleep] out a few weeks back.
[After a few minutes, the 5 fighters separate from each other and backpedal, each scanning his or her opponents, looking for an opening.
