Winner: Slade Craven

Chase: What a debut from Slade Craven!

Harvey: Impressive win here.

Slade celebrates his victory as we head backstage where President Jeff is in his office and Max Carter walks in.

Max: You wanted to see me boss?

Jeff: How you feeling Max?

Max: A lot better. Thanks for giving me the week off last week, I somehow got that flu that’s going around.

Jeff: yah, yah, back to business now. We have a little problem. When I was told to say away from shows, I put you in charge because, well, who better than the best GM In the world. But here’s the problem, I put you in charge, and ratings, well, they haven’t been up to par. They actually have been declining a bit. I come back last week, and you just happened to be given the week off, and ratings Sky rocket back to where they once we’re.

Max: I’m still getting used to everyone here.

Jeff: No excuses. I want you to start delivering. Bring in the ratings, or your fired. Start with tonight, take Overdrive and make it exciting for its debut on Wednesday Night.

Max: Don’t worry, I won’t let you down.

The two shake hands and Max walks away as we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

The camera comes on backstage where you see Link walking and it just happens, he finds Streets Wilson sitting in a corner. Wilson doesn’t look in good shape. Looks as if he hasn’t saved in a few weeks. Looks like he’s on a downward spiral.

Link: Look at you, your pathetic.

Streets: I lot the tag titles. I don’t know where Rick Stevens is. And worst of all, I lost to Jason Royce last week. Jason Royce! I don’t know what to do.

Link: Your probably better off Killing yourself.

Streets: Wait a second, I have a better idea.

Link: I think my idea is just fine.

Streets: Rasslemania is coming up. If I could get booked on the show, have one match, and maybe turn this all around.

Link: I still think you should kill yourself.

Streets: Who are you fighting at Rasslemania?

Link: No one, and don’t think your gonna fight me.

Streets: One match. Lets put an end to this between us.

Link: You’re a waste of my time.

Streets: Come on. It was because of me that you didn’t get to win the tag titles at Carnage. Remember when I put you through that table on Overdrive a month ago. You must still have some strong hatred against me. As far as I’m concerned, you’ve gotten no pay back.

Link: You want to fight me at Rasslemania. Have you lookin in a mirror lately. You lost to Jason Royce. Hell, you even lost to Fyre Angel back in November. Your not in my league Streets. Your not in anyone’s league.

Streets: One match.

Link thinks for a second

Link: Well, if your not gonan Kill yourself, then I’ll do it for you at Rasslemania. Your on Pal, and you better show up, because if you don’t, I’m gonna find you.

Link walks away as we go back to the ring.

The Shadow celebrates as Overdrive goes to commercial

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back from commercial and Max Carter is in his office and The Hardcore Kid shows up.

THK: Max, I need a favor.

Max: What you need Kid.

THK: Well, as you know, at Rasslemania, I’m defending my Xtreme Title against Jason Royce in a Hardcore in Hell match. But I feel that I need a match, to get me ready for that. And I’m fighting Dr. Matt tonight, but I don’t think that’s enough.

Max: What did you have in mind?

THK: I was thinking of some sort of Hardcore type gimmick.

Max: How about…..

Just then Jason Royce barges in.

Jason: Max, I have an idea….

Jason then see’s the Kid standing there.

Jason: What are you doing here.

THK: Max and I are making a business deal.

Max: Actually, The Kid here wants to spice up his match with Dr. Matt by adding a gimmick to it.

Jason: That’s why I came here. I want to spice up my match with John Green.

THK: You do realize that I’m a lot more Xtreme than you are right.

Jason: We’ll see at Rasslemania won’t we.

Max: Hold on a second guys. Tonight, its all about the ratings. I like your ideas and I think, its what the people wants. So tonight, Hardcore Kid, your going to fight Matt in a Falls Count Anywhere’s match. And Royce, you will fight John Green in a Xtreme Rules match. Good luck to you both.

THK: Thanks Max.

Royce: You won’t regret this. And Kid, don’t get hurt against Matt, because I want to hurt you at Rasslemania.

Chase: Wow, what an addition to tonight’s matches.

Harvey: I can’t wait for that. But lets go to our next match of the night.

Paige: The following contest is a non title match and is scheduled for one fall

As "Don't Question My Heart" by Saliva and the crowd erupts into a chorus of boos. As the song picks up smoke rises and finally the pyros are set off with one big bang as Carl Cage steps out onto the ramp with his arms outstretched

Paige: Introducing first, the APW Overdrive Champion, Carl Cage!

Cage lowers his arms. Then he makes his way down to the ring gesturing and back chatting the crowd as they are shouting abuse to the crowd who are booing them. Cage walks up the steps and step's over the top rope, he then walks into the middle of the ring and starts posing as the crowds booing gets louder and louder. After he has finished posing Carl stops and a smirk that exudes arrogance appears on his face, his music then fades out as he gets ready for action.

Paige: And his opponent

The lights in the arena fade out and a soft glow glimmers out from the entrance way. A long almost organ like melody strikes out from the speakers which draws a stir from the crowd. Suddenly the music fades and a loud bright burst of pyro ignites across the stage as BOOM by POD blasts onto the speakers. A red light envelops the stage and as the smoke clears away Twister is seen standing at the entrance way to the delight of the crowd on hand. Twister pauses at the top of the stage momentarily as the light brightens slightly around him and gold pyro surround him on the stage.

Paige: From Winnipeg Manitoba Canada, Twister!

He works his way down the rampway jawing with a few fans on the way down the red light following him down the ramp way, a permanent smirk always etched on his face. Twister then stops a foot or so before the ring, the red glow engulfs the ring as Twister sprints up and slides through the ropes and bounces up in the ring. He poses for the thousands of cameras around the ring as the lights slowly come back to normal.

Carl Cage Vs Twister


The match stars off with both men meeting in the ring. Carl Cage with an obvious size advantage towers over Twister, who refuses to back down. Before Carl can make a move, Twister unloads with a right hand and then another one! This sends Carl Cage backwards towards the ropes; as Twister simply wails at the big man who takes refuge with the help of the ropes.

Harvey: Carl Cage has been off his game lately

Chase: Ever since the attack by Level-One, Carl hasn’t been the same. I’m just surprised he’s recovered so quickly!

The ref slips in between the two shoving Twister off of him. Twister slips past the ref and back on the offence; Carl Cage nails Twister in the stomach with a boot; and then a axe hammer to the back of the head dropping twister to his knees. Carl Cage grabs Twister by his head pulling him up to his feet, but Twister replies with a knee to the gut, before whipping Carl Cage into the turn-buckle! Carl Cage’s shoulder smashes against the inside post.

Harvey: Twister is looking ready for Rasslemania tonight!

Chase: Carl Cage on the other hand? Not so much…

Carl Cage pulls himself out of the corner; only to receive a corner splash from Twister! With Carl Cage shaken, Twister hops up on the top rope, and rains down a series of fists on Carl Cage’s face…1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9… Twister winds up for a final blow, but Carl Cage slips under Twister and takes him down with a power bomb off the top rope! The crowd with a huge pop, as Carl Cage hooks the leg.

Twister with a shoulder up!

Harvey: Carl Cage with a surprise maneuver there, I don’t think Twister saw that coming!

Chase: I don’t know, I don’t think Carl Cage has what it takes to beat Twister here tonight.

Carl Cage is to his feet; as he waits for Twister to pull himself up. Twister once on his feet is picked up on Carl Cage’s shoulder; Carl Cage takes a running start ready to nail Twister with a running power slam, but Twister slips out behind Carl Cage; taking him down with a mid-air reverse DDT!

Carl Cage kicks out!

Harvey: Twister with a near fall there!

Chase: Twister is working Carl Cage, I believe it’s going to pay off

Twister is to his feet; throwing his hands in the air he hypes up the crowd. Carl Cage slowly pulls himself to his feet; as Twister rushes forward with a clothesline—to no avail, as Carl Cage only stumbles back. Twister backs up, and nails Carl Cage with yet another clothesline, but Cage is still up. With urgency, Twister backs up once more this time catching Carl Cage with a shoulder block dropping him to the mat! Twister goes for the legs of Carl Cage but Cage shoves back Twister with force; sending him through the ropes.

Harvey: Twister just got launched out of the ring, but he’s still up on that apron.

Chase: Yeah, and I don’t think Cage knows that.

Cage quickly gets to his feet; as Twister pulls himself up. Cage turns around, as Twister launches himself over the ropes taking Carl Cage with yet another flying shoulder block, as the fans pop. Twister stalks Carl Cage; who slowly but surely makes it to his feet; and Twister scoops him up on his shoulders…

Harvey: It’s over, lights out!

Chase: Carl Cage is in trouble…

FURY IN THE WIND! Twister flips Carl Cage over his shoulders onto his back with force which shakes the ring. Twister with urgency quickly hooks the leg of Carl Cage, as the ref drops to the mat…

Jeff brings Twister to the bottom rope and starts choking him. The ref tries to get Jeff off, but Jeff pushes the ref and pulls Twister to the middle of the ring. Twister tries fighting back but Jeff pokes Twister in the eye and drops him with the Eye of the Hurricane!

Chase: Jeff is calling for a mic

Jeff stands over Twister with the mic and looks down at him

Jeff: Twister, what you did to me, you just asked for your death wish. You know better not to mess with Hurricane Jeff. And consider this is just a small taste of what’s to come. Because, on Sunday, March 29, you and me Twister, Rasslemania 5. I’m going to show you way you made the biggest mistake of your life.

Jeff drops the mic and his music hits

Overdrive goes to commercial.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive opens up backstage where Carl Cage is walking, disappointed in his loss and bumps into John Green

John: Nice job out there.

Carl: Shut up!

John: about last week. I beat the World Champ.

Carl: You got lucky.

John: Maybe, but as far as I’m concerned, I think being the world champ is deserving of a title shot. And at the moment, That overdrive title is the only title I have yet to win in APW.

Carl: You want a title shot at Rasslemania?…….. YOU GOT IT!

John: Don’t worry Carl, I’ll take good care of that belt.

President Jeff just happens to be walking by and hears what just happened.

Jeff: Hold on a second. You boys can’t just be making matches. Carl, your performace as of late, I don’t even know if I want you at Rasslemania. John Green, your gonna get your Overdrive title shot at Rasslemania. But it may or may not be against Carl here because Carl, next week on Overdrive, your defending that title, against APW New Comer, The Shadow. Good Luck

Jeff walks away as we go back to the ring

Chase: What a decision made by President Jeff, giving The Shadow a title match next week in just his second match!

Harvey: He must have really impressed the boss.

Chase: Lets go to our next match, Dr. Matt Verses The Hardcore In falls count anywheres!

Paige: The following contest is a Falls Count Anywheres match

The lights dim and Eminem's voice comes over the loud speaker, "Get your ass up for the Doctor, one more time, get your ass up for the Doctor". "Encore" continues to play as Dr. Matt steps into a spotlight shining in the entry way.

Paige: Now introducing, from Upriver, New Brunswick, Canada, weighing in at 247 lbs; he is "Hardcore as Hell", DR. MATT

Dr. Matt steps out into the light. The fans are already booing him, and he just laughs it off. He struts down to the ring and then seal dives in under the bottom rope. He gets to his feet, climbs to the middle rope, and holds a long pose, moving his shoulders to the beat, before hoping off and turning back to the middle of the ring as the music fades.

Paige: And his opponent

“Ironman” by Black Sabbath hits the PA and The Hardcore Kid walks out with the Xtreme Title around his waist.

Paige: From Las Vegas Nevada, he is the APW Xtreme Champion, THE HARDCORE KID!

The Kid comes down to the ring and slides in under the bottom ropes and jumps up to the top rope and poses for the fans before jumping down and handing the title to the ref.

Non Title Falls Count Anywhere
Dr. Matt Vs The Hardcore Kid

The Bell rings and Matt is quick to take the Hardcore Kid down with a spear. Matt then begins laying the fists to THK. The Kid is able to get away and gets out of the ring.

Chase: I think the Hardcore Kid might have gotten more than he can chew.

Matt gets out of the ring and starts chasing the Kid. The Hardcore Kid runs up the entrance ramp and as he gets to the top, Matt catches up to him and grabs the Kid by the hair and punches him in the face and the kid goes down.

Harvey: The Hardcore Kid is crazy for wanting to do a match like this, against a guy like Dr. Matt.

Matt then picks up THK and gives him a Snap mare, then when THK is standing by the edge of the ramp, Matt runs at him and gives him a big forearm shot, sending off the ramp and through a table.

Chase: This match has to be already over.

The ref makes his way down to the Kid who by this time is slowly moving.

Harvey: I don’t think the Kid is out yet.

The Kid is on his knees holding his back in pain. Matt jumps off the ramp and hits THK with a Front Dropkick. Matt gets up and steals a camera from a camera man. The guy starts yelling at him, but Matt kicks the Camera man. He then walks over to The Hardcore Kid and goes to hit him with the camera, but The Kid rolls out of the way and the camera makes sparks as it smashes into the concrete. The Hardcore Kid gets up and Spinning Heel Kicks the Camera into Matt face. The Hardcore Kid then picks up Matt and throws him into the side of the ramp (the ramp is about 10 feet off the ground). The Hardcore Kid then gets up on a box and jumps off, kicking Matt in the head. The Hardcore Kid makes a cover,

Harvey: Remember, this is falls count anywheres!

The Hardcore Kid then digs around through some electrically equipment and finds a ladder and stands it up. He climbs up the ladder, and at the top he is at the same height as the ramp. The Hardcore Kid then turns with his back to Matt and goes a for a Moonsault, but Matt moves and The Hardcore Kid slams into the concrete. The fans chant Holy Shit as Matt picks up The Hardcore Kid, chops him with his left hand, chops him with his right, then lifts the Kid up and takes him down with a chokeslam! Matt then climbs the ladder and jumps back onto the ramp. The Hardcore Kid gets up and slowly climbs the ladder and then rolls over onto the ramp. Matt grabs The Hardcore Kid by the haird and drags him behind the curtain and to the backstage area.

Chase: Where the hell are they going?

The two men are walking down a hallway, with Matt dragging The Hardcore Kid. Matt then slams The Hardcore Kid into the brick walls a few time, then throws The Hardcore Kid through a door. The two wind up in what looks like a game room. There are a few pool tables, a couple ping pong tables, foosball tables, in one corner, two couches and a TV, in another, a jukebox, in another corner, a mini-bar with three stools and in the other corner is a pinball machine. Matt punches The Hardcore Kid a few times, then brings him over to a couch, and Matt gets up on the back of the couch and goes for a Tornado DDT, but The Hardcore Kid throws him off and Matt lands on a pool table. The Hardcore Kid grabs a pool cue of a rack on the wall and swings at the Doc, but he rolls out of the way and the pool cue snaps in half. Matt grabs the cue ball and runs away from The Hardcore Kid, who is swinging the other half of the pool cue around. Matt picks up a long, skinny bag that is used to hold a pool cue. He puts the cue ball in the bag, ties the end, then begins swinging the bag around his head. He then tosses it at The Hardcore Kid and it smacks him in the head.

Chase: I never thought I’d ever see someone get hit with a pool ball.

Matt then run at another pool table, jumps onto the edge, then he kicks off the table and hits a Splash on The Hardcore Kid. He makes a cover,

Matt rolls off the machine, which is now covered in broken glass and is buzzing, with "TILT" flashing on the machine. The Hardcore Kid picks up Matt who is holding his back in pain. The Hardcore Kid then rolls Matt onto a Ping Pong Table, then he grabs a stool from the bar and stands it next to the table. The Hardcore Kid then does a handstand onto the stool, then tips towards the table and he lands back first onto Matt, sending them both through the table.

Harvey: Well, that's something new...

The Hardcore Kid slowly gets up and grabs the stool. Matt then tries to get up, but The Hardcore Kid puts the stool around his head, trapping Matt head between two of the stool's legs, a rung and the seat. The Hardcore Kid uses this to drag Matt back out into the hallway, then the smashes the stool, along with Matt head, into the brick wall. The Hardcore Kid grabs Matt by the legs and drags him back out to the arena. They are on the entrance, and The Hardcore Kid stands with his back to the ramp, still holding Matt legs, and he leans back, tossing Matt down the ramp. Matt lands, then rolls almost the entire way back to the ring. The Hardcore Kid then grabs Matt and tosses him into the ring, then he grabs a steel chair and slides in the ring himself. The Hardcore Kid tosses Matt into the corner, then lays a chair on him. The Hardcore Kid runs off the ropes, and hits a dropkick on the chair into Matt’s face. He makes the cover.

kick out at the last second by the The Doc. The Kid looks a little peeved, but he isn't going to stop now. He grabs Matt and tosses him onto the chair. He then goes back to the top rope and goes for a Frog Splash, but Matt moves and The Hardcore Kid hits the chair so hard that he bounces and lands with his back on the chair. Matt picks the Kid up and goes for the Doctors Orders. The Kid grabs the ropes. Matt tries to pull him off but can’t, so Matt turns his body, and pulls the Kid off that way and now has the Kid set up for a Tombstone Piledriver onto the chair, but the Kid kicks his legs and mananges to have Matt leans backwards. The Kid lands on his feet and picks Matt up and drops him on the chair with a Sitdown Tombstone Piledriver. The Kid makes the cover

WINNER: The Hardcore Kid

Harvey: Holy Crap, The Hardcore Kid just beat a Hardcore Legend.

Chase: A HUGE win for the Hardcore Kid heading towards Rasslemania.

The Kid is surprised at the win and quickly begins to celebrate as the ref hands him his Xtreme Title and Overdrive goes to commercial

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back on the air, and Dr. Matt is still in the ring and is just getting up now. You can tell he’s upset that he lost to the Hardcore Kid. Matt has the mic handed to him.

Matt: Go a head, laugh at me. Because, this match, really, its meant nothing. It wasn’t going to get me a title shot. I wasn’t going to lose a title shot. And I wasn’t going to lose my spot at Rasslemania. Last week, I threw out an open challenge, to anyone who wants to fight me at Rasslemania. I’ve been in every Rasslemania. I’m 3 and 1 at Rasslemania and I plan on being 4 and 1 after Rasslemania 5 is said and done. So, to anyone who wants to fight me at Rasslemania, come out and accept my challenge.
Matt waits and no one comes out.

Matt: I can wait all night.

Matt waits some more and still, no one comes out. Matt then slides out of the ring, grabs a chair, gets back in the ring, and sits on the chair

Matt: I’m not leaving this ring until someone comes out and accepts my challenge.

Matt waits a bit longer and then music hits and words appear on the titantron

YOU CAN’T STOP NU METAL ON THE BLOCK




Chase: MATT METAL!

Harvey: THE APW HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE!

Dr. Matt’s eyes lit up in shock as Matt Metal walks out on to the ramp and the fans go ballistic

Chase: METALMANIA LIVES ON!

Metal smiles and makes his way down to the ring. He walks up the ring steps and enters through the ropes and does a pose for the fans which makes them cheer even louder. You see the arena light up in camera flashes. Metal stops in front of Matt, smiles and ask for a mic.

Metal: Man it feels good to be back

Fans cheer

Metal: You know, when President Jeff called me up and said, “Hey Matt, Rasslemania is coming up and I want to do something special. I want to start the APW Hall of Fame and Induct you as the first person in it.” When I heard that, I tear came down my cheek, because I am honored to be part of such a celebration. And last week, I was at home, watching Overdrive, and I saw the video of my induction, and it brought back a lot of good memories. And it got me thinking, I’m not happy with how I left the business. And when I heard, that Dr. Matt of all people, was having an open challenge for Rasslemania, I thought, why the hell not give my Metalmaniacs one last great match.

Matt: Metal, your old, your broken down. Your neck is barley hanging on. Your retarded for accepting my challenge. Just come to Rasslemania, accept the Hall of Fame plaque and go back home. No one wants to see you wrestle at Rasslemania

The fans boo

Metal: I think your wrong Doc. I think these people want to see Matt Metal wrestle one more time at Rasslemania.

The fans cheer.

Matt: Let me remind you that Rasslemania, its MY Pay Per View. And the last time you and I tangoed at Rasslemania, I whooped your ass!

Metal: Rasslemania 1. The event that put CWF, and Matt Metal on the map. And that brings me to my second point. At Rasslemania 1, it was you and I Matt, in a 3 fall, TLC match. First Fall, A table match. 2nd fall, a chair match, and the third fall, if needed, a Ladder match. So what do you say Matt. Do you want to relive history?

Matt: You want to fight me, at Rasslemania, in a 3 Fall TLC.

Metal nods his head

Matt: Matt Metal, its on like Donkey Kong. But remember this, I’m not responscible when I cripple you.

Metal: And you remember this, You Can’t Stop Nu Metal on the Block!

Metal drops the mic and the fans cheer as Metal’s music hits and Metal exits the ring.

Chase: WOW, What a match added to Rasslemania.

Harvey: That match alone would be enough for me to order Rasslemania 5!

Chase: Matt Metal’s final send off. Inducted into the APW Hall of Fame and reliving Rasslemania 1.

Metal heads back up the ramp as Dr. Matt looks on and we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back on the air with a recap of Matt Metal accepting Dr. Matt Challenge

Paige: The following contest is an Xtreme Rules match

"King Nothing" by Metallica blasts through the P.A. system and the crowd hits their feet as they await for The Retribution Killer. As the heavy metal guitar solo comes to an end out comes John comes out wearing his normal wrestling attire with his "The Retribution Killer" shirt on. He smiles as he stands in front of the entrance ramp and does his trademarked "Retribution" pose and sparks and fireworks shoot into the air immediately.

Paige: From Atlanta Georgia, John Green!

John walks down the ramp with a smile on his face as he slaps some of the hands of fans as he walks past them. Before entering the ring he stops in front of the squared circle looking into the ring and lets out a grin before sliding into the ring and standing in the middle of it. Green closes his eyes and takes a huge breath before running to the ropes and shaking the top one forcefully. He then lets out a monstrous roar and beats his chest. He walks to the turnbuckle and climbs them to the second rope and points to himself and then once again does his trademarked "Retribution" pose. John hops off and takes off his shirt and throws it into the crowd. His music fades out as he awaits for the bell to ring.

Paige: And his opponent

“Scars” by Papa Roach hits the PA and Jason Royce comes out and the fans boo him. Royce ignores the boo’s as he heads down to the ring

Paige: From Chicago Illinois, Jason Royce!

Jason slides into the ring and gets ready for the match

Xtreme Rules
John Green Vs Jason Royce


Green and Royce circle each other a bit, then the two tie up and Green takes Royce down with a knee to the gut. Royce doubles over and Green hits Royce with a DDT. Royce grabs his head in pain as Green picks him up and tosses him to the ropes, then hits him with a Back Toss that throws Royce right out of the ring. Royce hits the ground and rolls into the ring barrier and Green gets out of the ring. Green then grabs Royce by the head and throws him hard into the ring steps. Green then picks up Royce as if he’s going to do a Body Slam, but then he throws Royce into the crowd. Green then grabs a steel chair from Ring Side and goes over the barrier. Royce is getting up and appears to be a bit woozy. Green goes to hit Royce with the chair, but Royce Super kicks the chair into Green’s face.

Chase: Finally, some offensive from Royce!

Harvey: Green could be in trouble now!

The chair is lying on Green’s chest and Royce begins to stomp it into him, bending the chair in the process. Royce then picks up the chair and slams it into Green’s throat. Green’s left gasping for breath as Royce picks him up and throws him back over the ring barrier. Royce then goes to the apron and lifts it up and pulls out a black baseball bat. He waits for Green to get up, and when Green is up to his knees, Royce connects the bat to Green’s face. Royce then rolls Green into the ring and then sets him up on the turnbuckle. He goes for the Reverse Neckbreaker off the top rope, but Green pushes him off the top rope and hits a Diamond Dust on him. The former world Champ makes a cover

Green picks up Royce and throws him to the corner. He then sets up Royce so he is sitting on the Turnbuckle facing away from the ring. Green is setting him up for A sitout crucifix powerbomb off the top rope. The crowd is getting pumped up and is chanting for the Green. Green turns around and stands on the middle rope, facing the ring. He grabs Royce’s arms and begins to hoist him up for the powerbomb. However, Royce gets a foot on the turnbuckle and he grabs Green by the neck and he jumps to the outside, giving Green a Neckbreaker off the top rope to the outside of the ring. The fans start chanting Holy Shit! Both men are down on the ground rolling in pain, but Royce manages to make a cover on Green

He then grabs Green and rolls him back in the ring. Royce picks up Green and throws him to the ropes, and it seems like he is planning on Back Tossing Green over the top rope and through the table, but Green comes back with a Big Boot that sends Royce over the top rope and lands on the apron. Green climbs to the apron and picks up Royce. Green then sets up Royce for what looks to be like a Stalling Suplex. He has Royce up there for a good 10 seconds as the fans chant "Drop Him, Drop Him, Drop Him". Green smiles then looks at the table in front of him. Green then hits a Brainbuster off the apron, onto the chair and through the table. Green then picks up the semi-comatose Royce and rolls him back in the ring.

Paige: The following contest is your main event and it’s a NO DISQUALIFACTION MATCH!

Sound of a woman’s scream is heard followed by the chorus of "Elite". Link comes out from the back standing at the top of the ramp. He looks around briefly before stretching his arms out to his side with his hands in a fist. This pose is what he has always called the sign of the Elite.

Paige: Introducing first, from San Jose California, LINK!

He walks down the ramp and into the ring going to the front right turnbuckle (camera view) and again posing the sign of Elite. He goes to the opposite turnbuckle and just stands on the 2nd rope staring out into the crowd not giving any signs of Elite or any facial expression. He steps down but stays next to the turnbuckle to wait for his opponent.

Paige: And his opponent

AFI Misseria Cantare begins to play The lights are dim, and the stage flickers with blue strobbing lights to the beat. Snow flakes begins to fall all through the arena, and the walkway is filled with smoke.

Paige: He is the APW World Heavyweight Champion, The White Lion, Michael LIVELY!

The strobing light beat to the music, and then as the lights flicker again the figure of a hooded figure can be seen. The I am JESUS pose is given then the hood is flipped back reveling Michael Lively as blue sparks shoot up from the floor behind him. Lively then begins to walk the ramp to the music, rolls into the ring, walks to the ropes in-between two ring posts, climbs the second, leaning against the top, holding his title in the air, as snow falls around him, and the ring glows blue. Lively drops down strike the pose again

No Disqualification
Michael Lively Vs Link

The bell rings and both men walk up to each other in the middle of the ring and start trash talking. Link pushes Michael, Michael pushes Link then like an explosion they begin to swing frantically at each other. Michael hits Link, Link follows up then continues with another hard punch before jabbing Michael in the gut. Michael ducks down and Link knees Michael in the head causing Michael to fly upward holding his nose, Link then amazingly jumps up and scissor kicks Michael in the head!

Harvey: Great acrobatics by Link there.

Chase: Yeah, this match is going to be very tough for the champ.

Michael falls face first to the mat. Link hauls him up and gives him an European Upper Cut sending Michael flying into the ropes. Link grabs Michael and flings him into the opposite set of ropes and hit's a devastating clothesline. Michael shudders the ring as he makes impact with the mat. Link pushes him over and hooks his leg.

Michael kicks out to the frustration of Link. He drags Michael over and places his ankle on the bottom rope, he then steps on the second rope and comes down on Michael’s ankle, Michael screams in pain as he begins to crawl away. Link has that sinister look in his eye as he stalks a weakened Lively, Link grabs Michael’s ankle and locks in an ankle lock but Michael squirms, turns and kicks Link right in the face. Link foolishly tries again but gets yet another boot and stumbles backwards. Michael sheepishly stands up and faces Link.

Chase: Great resilience by the World Champion.

Harvey: Let’s see what this dude can really do.

Link runs at Michael but Michael ducks the attempted clothesline and comes back with his own, hobbling a bit on his leg. Link bounces up holding his head and Michael pokes his eyes then hits a spinebuster shaking the ring violently. Michael stomps on Link continuously then lifts him up and slaps him. He then throws him into the corner and follows up with a big splash on Link. He goes for a second time but Link flips him over and he head butts the ring post! He falls back and onto the floor. He lets out a small trickle of blood as Link pulls him to his feet. Link pushes him to the ropes but Lively hangs on as the crimson blood begins to ooze from his face, Link darts at him but Michael drops him over the ring and to the outside.

Chase: Taking it to the dangerous outside now!

Michael climbs over and lands a fist to Links skull as he stands up, he then drives Links back into the crowd barricade. Michael then grabs his leg and flings him into the air bouncing his skull off of the barricade. Michael then makes his way to the underside of the ring and pulls out a trash can lid and slaps it over Links skull as he turns around and then for good measure hits him again. As Link falters Michael grabs Links arm and goes to swing him into the steps but Link stops him then snaps a clothesline. Michael’s head bounces from the hard floor as Link takes a breather. Link then picks Michael back up and rolls him into the ring and follows him in. Michael tries to crawl back out getting more breather time but Link stops him, picks him up and then hits a running power slam. He pins.

Kickout by Link. Michael gets frustrated signaling for the end and goes for his finisher but Link reverses it and launches Michael over the top rope. Link gains some breath back and then follows up, he bounces Michael’s head off of the announcing table a few times before throwing him to the floor. He then dislodges the cover of the table and pulls out a monitor, Michael gets up and Link swings with the monitor but Michael ducks and lands a superkick to Links chin. He falls backwards. Michael then grabs the wires and begins to strangle Link but while he is choking him Link pulls out a chair from under the ring with one hand and Michael never notices until it has hit him across the skull making his already large gash even bigger in his forehead.

Chase: What a thunderous shot by the champ.

Harvey: Michael never saw it coming.

As Michael bleeds profusely Link scavenges under the ring for a table and pulls one out setting it up outside the ring. he then grabs the bleeding Michael and places him delicately on the table before climbing the ring post. Link however slips giving Michael a chance to recover and roll off the table. Link is annoyed and goes back to the outside for Michael but Michael is waiting as he shoves the monitor into the soft flesh of Links face, gashing him wide open as he leaks crimson red blood. Michael lies on top of him and digs his fingers in the open cut, he then takes Links blood and wipes it over his face before rolling Link into the ring and making a cover.

Harvey: No way!

Chase: Yes way!

Harvey: It can't be!

Chase: It can be.

Michael pins again but gets another two count, he is fuming. He pulls up the limp bodied Link and hauls him up for a delayed suplex before bringing him down hard. Michael then glances over at the table and pulls it into the ring, setting it up in the center. He picks up Link and goes to sit-down powerbomb him through the table but Link pushes himself forward and brings down Michael, shoulders on the mat. Cover.

Kickout. Michael jumps up shocked by the surprise pin. Link is up too, Michael swings for Link but is blocked by a forearm of Links, then another blocked and then Link comes back with his own, then another and then he pushes Michael into the ropes and hits a flapjack right on Michael’s nose. It hurt. Link signals to the crowd for the end and goes for The Missing Link but Michael slips out and then hits a DDT.

Harvey: Link was missing something there when going for the missing Link.

Chase: Haha, you're funny.

Harvey: Wasn't meant to be....anyway back to the action.

Both men are laid out in the middle of the ring, blood splatters lay everywhere. The ref begins a count at which Link and Michael get up to within nine. They exchange punches but Link cheats and thumbs Michael in the eyes and then clotheslines him down. The two are weak and tired. Michael uses the ropes for leverage and gets up as Link goes for a german suplex but Michael turns around in the grip and hits his own belly to belly suplex. He jumps up, getting himself pumped and then signals to the table. He picks up Link and drags him over to the table; he thinks about hitting the LionsBite but then second thinks it. The crowd boos, but then he points to the top turnbuckle. He takes Link with him, laying in a few cheap shots on his way and then climbs the turnbuckle with Link. He then tries for the LionsBite, but Link manages to fight out of it. Lively then just lifts Link up for a powerbomb and the crowd cheer.

Harvey: Don't do it Michael, its insane!

Michael goes to hit the Powerbomb off the top rope but Link manages to swivel a little wrapping his legs around Michael’s head and then hurricanranas Michael and himself through the table! They both lay in the open carnage as the crowd shout holy s**t! Link and Michael begin to bleed profusely from their heads as a few EMTs rush from the back but the ref calls them off as he spots Link moving. Link gets his arm over a mangled Lively body!

Michael gets his shoulder up!! The crowd goes wild.

Chase: How!?

Harvey: Never, how the hell did he kick out of that?

Link rolls from the wreckage as Lively holds his ribs. Link rolls all the way to the outside and pulls out two more tables and a ladder! he pushes the ladder into the ring and then the tables and takes a sledgehammer for his own doing. Michael begins to stir around as Link stalks him with the sledgehammer. Michael gets to his knees clutching his ribs; he spots Link and it sheer terror begs to Link not to hit him. Link brandishes the weapon and his face lights up menacingly. Link pulls up the hammer and shoves it towards Lively but amazingly he rolls way from the shot and kicks Links knees out. He gets up and hits a shining wizard on Link and pins him!

Link kicks out. Michael groans but gets on with it as he makes his way to the two tables Link brought into the ring. He picks one up and without setting it up he rests it in the corner against the turnbuckle and then goes back to Link. He pulls him up and lands a few punches before dragging him into the corner in front of the table. Link fights back though punching Michael and then landing an uppercut sending Lively to the floor holding his jaw. Link then climbs the turnbuckle over the table as Lively stands up, Link jumps off the but Lively catches him in mid flight and spine busters Link through the table! Lively drags him off.

Harvey: it's over for sure.

Kickout by Link! Michael can't believe it. Michael then turns around and looks at the ladder and table that are left. Setting up the table and ladder he turns his attention to Link. He drags him to the ladder and lays him onto the table. He then begins to climb the ladder. He seams to be there forever, this gives Link a chance to get off and makes his was up the other side catching an almost terrified Michael up. They get to the top and exchange clubbing fists. They make it to the very top as Link gains the upper hand, he pulls Livelys head and then tries to shove him off of the ladder. But Lively holds on. Link then comes again but Michael grabs him and tries to yank him over the top of the ladder. They are now both on one side of the ladder, Michael grabs the waist of Link and sets him up for a German suplex!

Chase: Don't do it Michael, not again.

Harvey: You know what happened last time, its suicide.

Michael isn't able to however as Link struggles around but in his attempt to do this the ladder begins to fall, the crowd goes silent as it falls over, then suddenly Link and Michael fall and land straight through the table together. This time the EMT’s do rush out as the crowd continues their chants of "Holy shit" and now "This is awesome". Lively somehow flips over and gets his arm across Link.

Winner: Michael Lively

EMT are quick to get into the ring, they check on both wrestlers. One group of EMT’s are looking after Link while another are looking at Lively.

Chase: I hope these two are ok. Rasslemania is less than 3 weeks away.

EMT puts Lively in a neck brace and then they put him on a stretcher.

Harvey: This isn’t looking good.

Fans look concerned as Lively is being pushed up the ramp. And then, one of the EMT’s pushes the Stretcher over to the ground. With Lively strapped into the stretcher and no where’s to go.

Chase: What’s that EMT doing.

The other EMT’s all get punched out, and the EMT takes off his disguised and its LEVEL ONE! Level One shows an evil smirk and starts attacking a defenseless Michael Lively.

Harvey: Level One should be arrested!

Level One kicks Lively then puts the stretcher back on its wheels and rolls it near the ring. Level One knocked out some more EMT’s and Road agents that come out to help Lively.

Chase: What kind of man does this! Level One is a coward!

With no help for Lively, Level One climbs to the top rope.

Harvey: Don’t do it!

Chase: someone stop him

Level One jumps off and hits a leg drop of Lively’s chest, breaking the stretcher in half. Lively lays on the broken stretcher, folded in half, still strapped in.

Harvey: Lively looks to be in a car wreck!

Chase: Can anyone stop Level One?

Level One looks down at a broken Lively as some of the APW superstars come out to protect Lively from Level One doing any further attack.

Harvey: I can’t believe what he just witnessed. That’s just sick!

Level One smiling, walks away as Overdrive goes off the air
