Overdrive - Portland, Maine(08/05/09)

[President Jeff]

Overdrive opens up with the camera’s backstage in the entrance area of the arena. You see Michael Lively trying to enter the arena after President Jeff banned him from all APW events last week. A group of security is blocking his way and shoving Lively every time he tries to break through, and President Jeff is there as well exchanging words with Lively.

Jeff: Lively, I told you last week that you weren’t going to be in an APW Ring again!

Lively: Accept my Challenge you pussy!

Jeff: I don’t need to fight you Lively. You chose to turn your back on me and APW. You tried to run me out of busniess. Your dead to me!

Lively: You know you can’t beat the JESUS. You know you’re a has been.

Jeff: Lively, I got nothing to prove anymore.

Lively: You try to get other people to take me out and its failed. Be a man and take me out your self you Son of a *****

Jeff: Get his piece of trash out of here

On that cue, Security move forward towards Lively and grab him, dragging him out.

Lively: You can’t hide behind your power forever!

Lively struggles to get away as Security drag him away as Jeff watches and the opening Overdrive video kicks in





The video ends and pyro shoots from the stage and the Overdrive theme song continues to play as fans stand from their seats, cheering and holding up their signs, showing off for the home audience. The camera stop on the voices of Overdrive, Darren Harvey and Johnny Chase.

Harvey: Welcome everyone to Wednesday Night Overdrive!

Chase: What a show we got planned tonight. But the big thing tonight is the official contract signing between Level One and Jesse Nunez. The two will fight on August 30th at Shockwave!

Harvey: These two had a match a few weeks ago on Overdrive where Level One cheaply took the win. It won’t be like that again this time around.

Chase: And what about what we just saw between Michael Lively and President Jeff. Lively trying to get into the arena after Jeff banned him.

Harvey: Last week Lively challenged Jeff to a match at Shockwave and if Lively was to win, Jeff would give him back a contract for APW

Chase: Lively turned his back on everyone in APW just weeks before Rasslemania. He can go screw himself as far as I’m concerned.

Harvey: A little bitter?

Chase: A little.

Harvey: Well lets cheer you up by getting to our opening match of the eveing with Jason Royce returning to in ring completion.

Chase: How is that going to cheer me up?

The camera zooms into the ring where Nicky Paige is standing.

Paige: The opening contest is scheduled for one fall.

“Scars” By Papa Roach hit’s the PA and the crowd begins to boo as Jason Royce steps out.

Paige: Making his way to the ring first, “The Legacy” JASON ROYCE!

Royce ignores the boo’s and runs down to the ring and slides in, looking focused for his match.

Row Row Fight the power hit’s the PA and out comes The Zero

Paige: And his opponent, being accompanied by Shamel Johnson, this is THE ZERO!

Shamel walks out first and stands on the stage as The Zero makes his way out to the fans delight. The walk down to the ring with The Zero high fiving some fans and then slides into the ring. The Zero jumps up the ropes and poses for the fans before jumping down and gets ready for his match

Winner: The Zero

Chase: Another win by The Zero

Harvey: He’s on a roll

Chase: Lets not Jinx it now.

Zero leaves the ring with Shamel celebrating his victory and Jason gets up and has for a mic.


Jason: I know I lost, but after the letter I got last week. I couldn’t stay focused.

Chase: He’s taking about some mystery letter that said “I’m back and I’ll see you soon”

Harvey: It could be anyone.

Jason: Now, who ever it is, I demand that you come out here now and show yourself. Be a man and meet me face to face.

Jason lowers the mic and wait’s a few second

Jason: Come on. I’m not leaving

Jason is cut off with Rock Superstar by Cypress Hill playing over the PA.

Chase: Who is this?

Harvey: Jason looks just as confused as everyone.

As everyone watches the Titantron, words appear







ROCKY STARR



The fans cheer as Jason Royce gets a shocked look on his face.

Chase: Rocky Starr is Back!

Rocky comes out on the stage to a nice pop from the fans and Rocky makes his way down to the ring, slaping the hands of fans and slides into the ring and takes the mic from Royce.

Rocky: Man it feels good to be back

The fans cheer

Rocky: Your may all be wondering what happened to me when I magically disappeared after Christmas Chaos last year. Hell, most of you probably don’t even remember who I am. Well, all that doesn’t matter. What matters is that I….AM…..BACK!

The fans cheer but then quickly boo as Jason takes the mic from Rocky?

Jason: What matters to me is why are you getting into my business.

Rocky: Its pretty simple. Shockwave is coming up and I want a match.

Jason: I got no reason to fight you.

Rocky: Actually, its more of a history making match. A blast from the past even.

Chase: What is he talking about.

Rocky: Before I came back, I took a look at the Roster. And one thing I noticed. No counting President Jeff. As of this moment, there are only Two Wrestlers that was in Jeff’s first fed, CWF, which its archives can be viewed in the vault over in actionpackedwrestling.tk

Harvey: Cheap Plug

Rocky: Only two guys who is here now that was in CWF 6 and a half years ago. And I’m the only guy here who wrestled at CWF’s Shockwave 6 years ago. We’ve crossed paths a few times in CWF. But the one time that I still hold a small grudge over is that you beat me for the CWF Xtreme Title only a week after I won it at the Wrath Pay Per View. But its more than just that Jason. This is a history making match. A match that can keep the CWF spirit alive. Because believe it or not, its that company that help make all this possible. So what do you say Jason. Or should I say D2K. You and me at Shockwave.

Rocky gives Jason the mic and Jason thinks for a second before saying

Jason: I beat you beat then, I’ll beat you now. YOUR ON!

Jason drops the mic and his music hits and Jason leaves the ring

Chase: There you have it. Rocky Starr making a big impression on his return.

Harvey: I’m looking forward to his Old School CWF match.

Chase: We’ll be right back

Overdrive goes to commercial.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back from commercial

Chase: Welcome back to Overdrive.

Harvey: It looks like there’s something going on in the crowd.

The camera looks around the crowd and they see Michael Lively walking down towards Ring Side area and is holding a Ticket in his hand.

Chase: You got to be kidding me.

Harvey: Gotta give him credit though. He’s a paying fan now.

Lively takes the empty seat at ringside, trying to ignore the fans

Chase: Jeff can’t be happy about this.

Harvey: Lets go to the next match.

Paige: The following Contest is scheduled for one fall.

Streets coves. 1.…2.….easy kick out by the Xtreme Champ. Streets pulls Cyrus up and bounces off the ropes, but Biggs grabs Streets leg, causing Streets to be distracted long enough for Cyrus to get up and attack Streets from behind, putting him in the corner and lays in with a few chops. Chris throws Streets to the opposite corner and then runs at him, nailing him with an avalanche splash. Streets stumbles out and Cyrus kicks him and suplexes him into a cover. 1.….2.…..Kick Out.

Harvey: With Biggs and The Beast both out here, Streets is going to need to take from his bags of tricks if he wants to win.

Chase: You think Lively will get involved?

Chris lifts Streets up and head butts him and Streets falls into the ropes. Cyrus throws Streets into the ropes and Streets hangs on. Chris charges at him, but Streets back drops Chris over the ropes, but Chris lands on the ring apron. Chris gives Streets a few shots to the face then climbs up to the top rope. Chris comes off with a Missile Dropkick, but Streets side steps and Chris hit’s the mat hard. Chris Bounces up holding his stomach and Streets takes Chris down with a short arm clothesline.

Chase: If Streets keeps it up, he could win this

Harvey: And a win for Streets could put him in the Xtreme Title picture

Streets pulls Chris up and puts him in the corner and gives him a Series of quick and powerful rights and lefts to the body followed by a devastating knife edge chop to the esophagus. With Chris all groggy like, Streets bulldogs Chris out of the corner and makes the cover. 1.….2.….Kick Out. Streets picks Chris up and sets him up on the top rope. Streets climbs up, hooking Chris for a superplex. Just as Streets goes for the move, Biggs grabs on to Chris, preventing him from going over onto the mat.

Chase: As much as I don’t like Streets, Biggs needs to be kicked out from ring side

Chris gets some shots in on Streets and pushes him off the ropes and onto the mat. Chris then comes off the top rope with a frog splash into a cover. 1.…..2.…….Kick Out!

Biggs exit’s the ring, The Beast hops off the apron and Chris measures Streets up and hit’s the Straight to Hell and hooks the leg for the cover. 1.….2.….3.

Winner: Chris Cyrus

The Axis of Awesome celebrate up the ramp and head backstage. With Streets still lying in the ring, “Raining Blood” By Slayer hit’s the PA and Out comes President Jeff with a chair in hand and the fans cheer cause they know something good is about to happen.

Chase: This ain’t gonna be pretty.

Jeff slides into the ring and Streets is just getting up and Jeff blast Streets in the face with the chair. The fans go wild as Jeff places the chair in the middle of the ring, picks Streets up and drops him with the HurraDriver onto the chair. Jeff then takes the chair, and with one foot on Streets Chest, Jeff puts the top of the chair into Streets throat and signals for a mic. A mic is tossed to him and Jeff directs his attention to Michael Lively.

Jeff: Lively, what part of being Banned from APW didn’t you understand. It means your banned as a wrestler. Banned as a fan. As an usher. Banned as one of those guys selling pop corn. So security, do you job.

Security goes over to Lively and grabs him and start bring him away.

Jeff: Wait a second. I’m not done yet. Lively, I’m sick and tired of all these games. And there’s only one person in the world that can end all this and that’s me. Lively, you want me at Shockwave, then you got me.

The fans cheer

Jeff: And believe me, you better be ready because this isn’t going to be a wrestling match, its going to be a fight, because this is personal! I'm lifting your ban as of next week, and next week, in this ring, you will go one on one with PENCE WEATHERLIGHT!

The fans cheer loud

Jeff: And one more thing. Remember this at Shockwave.

Jeff drops the mic and with two hands on the chair, lifts the chair in the air and drives the top of the chair into Streets throat. Streets rolls around on the ground holding his throat and blood starts coming out of his mouth. Lively watches on as Jeff points the chair towards Lively. The two staredown as we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

"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.


Harvey: "I just bought my kid that shirt for his birthday."

Chase: "Really Darren, what'd you spend...two bucks?"

Harvey: "Shut up, Johnny."

Nicky Paige: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall, first making his way to the ring from Atlanta, Georgia weighing in at two-hundred and sixty-five pounds....JOHN....GREEEN!"

Green 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. 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 let’s 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 begins pacing alongside one side of the ring, glaring up towards the entrance area on stage.

Chase: "Quite the entrance by John Green."

The lights start flicker red, white, and blue, the fans erupt in to chants and then the lights die out and then static appears on the screen in front of the entrance ramp. Miniature explosions explode all over the screen and then the lights start flashing red, white, and blue again as "Come to Life" by Alterbridge starts playing.

Nicky Paige: "His opponent, from Hershey, Pennsylvania...weighing in at two-hundred and fifty pounds...PENCE...WEATHERLIGHT!!"

The fans start chanting as Pence emerges on the ramp and a spot light descends down on him as he walks down to the ring. He gets in to the ring and takes off his black and gold vest and throws it to the crowd, he then stands up on the ring post, and raises his hands above his head and gives the fans a big smile. They chant "Weatherlight!" as he stands in the ring he turns around to lock eyes with Green standing motionless across the ring.

John Green Vs Pence Weatherlight

The bell rings and both men circle each other. Pence looking a bit bruised up from his previous match a week earlier smirks at a disgusted John Green. Pence and Green lock up quickly. Pence applies a side headlock and Green throws Pence off into the ropes and Green takes Pence down with a shoulder block. Green quickly covers Pence.

Harvey: "Green trying to end it quick here!"


Ref: "1...!"

"2.....!"

Kick out by Pence.

Chase: "Too sooon."

Pence is getting up and Green grabs Pence's arm and then kicks Pence in the ribs repeatedly a few times. Pence falls back down to the mat and Green gives a leg drop on Pence's arm and then goes for the "Tap Out", but Pence is able to quickly get to the ropes. The ref pulls Green off and Pence slowly gets to his feet, while Green stands arguing with the official.

Harvey: "Senior official seems to be giving Green a piece of his mind wouldn't you say?"

Chase: "How come he can do that to Green but I can't do that to Hurricane Jeff?!"

Harvey: "Johnny...do you like your job?"

Chase: "Well, yeah...of course."

Harvey: "-Then SHUT UP! Back to the action..."

Green moves in and Pence kicks Green in the stomach, grabbing Green and putting him in the corner. Pence extends his arm and throws an open hand chop that echo’s though out the arena. Fans cheering on respond with the classic Flair "Whooo!!" response as Green stumbles to the middle of the ropes. Pence stalking nearby clutches Green's arm and whips him into the other ropes and catches Green with a knee to the face. Pence covers and hooks the leg.


Referee: "One...!!"

"Two...!"

Kick out by Green. Pence quickly grabs Green's head and applies a headlock, slowly falling to a knee as he switches into a well-executed sleeper hold.

Harvey: "I wonder how much fight Pence has left in him."

Chase: "We'll soon find out now won't we."

Green fights back to his feet. He elbows Pence in the stomache a few times to get out of the tightly applied sleeperhold. Green goes to run off the ropes but Pence grabs a hand full of Green's hair and pull's Green down to the mat. Green sits up holding his head and Pence bounces off the ropes and kicks Green right in the spine.

Chase: "That one sent chills up MY spine!"

Pence slowly picks Green up and scoop slams him in the middle of the ring. Pence goes to the corner and starts to climb with his back to the ring. Pence gets to the top rope and Green gets up and goes behind Pence and hits his legs and Pence comes down on the top rope. Green climbs up the middle rope and gives Pence a few forearm shots to the shoulder blades. Green puts his head under Pence's arm and then pulls Pence off the top rope with a super side belly to back suplex off the top rope and the fans cheer for the high impact move. Pence holds the back of his neck as Green hooks Pence's leg for the cover.


Ref: "One...!!"






"TWO...!!..."





Kick Out.


Harvey: "That one might have broken Pence's neck."


Chase: "Maybe you could give him a massage after the show."


Harvey: "Now’s not the time or place for those jokes JOHNNY."


Green starts stomping on the back of Pence's neck and then drops an elbow on it. Green picks Pence up and throws him into the corner. Green takes a few steps back and then runs at Pence, hitting him with a clothesline. Green then grabs Pence's head, turns and runs out of the corner and hits a running bulldog, planting Pence's head into the mat. Green turns Pence over and covers him.


Ref: "1......"




"2......."








Kick out. Green picks Pence up once again and Pence tries fighting back just before Green gets a knee in on Pence. Green lifts Pence up hooking his arm and hits him with a suplex. Green gets to his feet quickly and walks around the ring waiting for Pence to get to his feet. Pence does as Green runs for a knee lift, but Pence dodges it and then starts punching Green violently. He has Green in the corner and continues punching and kicking him with roaring shots to the head and chest. Pence throws Green into the opposite corner and Pence rushes him but Green gets his foot in Pence's face. Pence stumbles back a bit and then runs back at Green, but Green lifts Pence up in the air and Pence goes face first onto the top turnbuckle. Pence's head snaps back and he stumbles towards the middle of the ring. Green is there and kicks Pence in the stomach and follows up hitting a DDT. Green quickly covers and the ref counts.


Ref: "1....!!"

"2...!!"


Kick out!

Harvey: "Pence must be running low on gas while Green still looks to have somewhat of a full tank."

Chase: "Not even close, Pence is just getting warmed up!"

Green can't believe it and is telling the ref that should have been a 3 count. Green brings Pence up and pushes him in the corner and hard chops him. Green then brings him to the ropes and whips Pence into the ropes as Pence reverses it. Green hits the ropes while Pence lowers his head. Green stops infront of Pence picking him up, jumping into the air and plants him with a knee-facebuster. Green quickly covers Pence.

Ref: "1....."



"2....."



Kick out. Green gets to his feet and gets in the ref’s face and yells at him, sticking his index finger out. Green bumps the ref and the ref pushes Green back and Pence is there and rolls Green up.

Ref: "...1!!"



"...2!!"




Kick out.

Chase: "Bit of a fast count there, wouldn't you say?"

Harvey: "...I didn't see anything."


Green quickly gets up and hits Pence back to the mat. Green pulls Pence up by the hair and haymaker's Pence in the face. Pence comes back with a hard right of his own. Green takes a swing and Pence ducks it. Green spins around and Pence flips Green over with an armdrag. Green gets back up as he is hit almost instantly with a drop kick and goes down to the canvas once again. Green gets up and Pence puts him in the corner and starts driving his shoulder into Green's stomache. Pence grunting in pain whips Green into the opposite corner and Green bounces out off impact. Pence is there and grabs Green and hits The Battle Testimony!! Scrambling over to make the pin Pence covers Green.


Harvey: "Pence is back with the Battle Testimony!! That's gotta be it!"


Ref: "1....



"2.....!!!!!"








..Kick Out.!!

Chase: "There’s still some fight left in Green there."

Harvey: "But the question is how much."

Green gets up and Pence pushes him back before whipping him into the ropes and connects with a spinning heel kick. Snapping to his feet Pence overlooks the crowd and screams.

Pence Weatherlight: "Time to bring out some Heavy Artillery!"

Pence screams as the fans cheer in approval to his obscenities.

Green gets up and Pence kicks him and sets him up for the Heavy Artillery as he hooks Green's arm. Pence goes to lift him up but Green fights it elbowing repeatedly and Green delivers a knee followed by a DDT on Pence. Green stumbles around and Pence gets up. Green drop toe holds Pence and then grabs his Ankle and locks in the Ankle lock and Pence screams in pain.

Chase: "Check this out, Green mocking Pence here using his own patented Ankle lock!"

Pence slowly crawls to the ropes but Green pulls him to the middle of the ring. Pence lifts his hand about to tap but doesn’t. Pence screams some more and then finds the strength to get to his feet. With Green holding one leg, Pence jumps and Enziguiri kicks Green in the back of the head!! Green stumbles around in a daze trying to shake it off. Pence shoots to his feet and Green goes in for an attack but Pence grabs Green and switches behind him before executing a Releasing German suplex on Green as Green goes upside down into the corner!!

Both men appear to be out cold.

Harvey: "What a back and forth match this is....I think Green is going to feel that in the morning!"

Chase: "This is still anyone's match."

The referee begins to count.

Ref: "1.......!!.....2......!!!....3......!!....4....!!"


Green gets to his feet first followed by Pence seconds after. Green chops Pence and Pence chops him back even harder. Pence then pokes Green in the eye with his thumb and kicks Green and gives him a snap suplex. Pence goes over to Green's legs and quickly locks on the Boston Crab but hesitates, glaring at Green lying face down on the mat then to the crowd. Dropping Green's legs Pence shakes his head and rises up

Chase: "What are you doing? Make him tap!"

Harvey: "Wait...wait a second!!"

Pence snaps around and latches his arms around Green's ankle, seeking some revenge before applying his own ankle lock!! Green is in the middle of the ring screaming as Pence is leaning back. The ref is in position to watch for the tap out. Pence leans back more and Green screams in pain.

Pence Weatherlight: "C'mon!! Tap you dumb son of a bitch!"

Harvey: "I think Pence is either going to make Green tap here or snap his ankle!"

Chase: "Both men putting up quite the fight here."

Twisting and pulling Green's ankle around violently, as Green crawls and claws against the canvas reaching for the ropes. Green using all the upper body strength he has, lifts his chest off the canvas, using one arm to reach for the ropes but appears too far. Lowering his head Green pushes up off the mat, and quickly counters with a unique roll-up pin combination!! Green hooks Pence's legs as Pence kicks wildly trying to get out!!


Ref: "1........!!!"



"2....!!"



"3...!!!!!!!!!"


-Ding! Ding! Ding!-

Winner: John Green

The bell sounds as Green darts out of the ring rolling under the bottom rope, raising his arms in victory as a completely SHOCKED Pence Weatherlight kneels in the ring in disbelief.

Nicky Paige: "Here is your winner...JOHN...GREEEN!!"

"King Nothing" by Metallica comes over the P.A. System while Green celebrates up the ramp, sharing a stare down with Pence as we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

We come back from commercial and John Green is still celebrating his victory over Pence and Green has a microphone in hand.

John: Tonight was a big win for me. I’ve been in a losing slump lately and so winning tonight is a good feeling. But the biggest event of the summer is coming up. I’m talking about Shockwave. And yours truly is not on the card so far for it. I didn’t make the show last year, but I sure as hell plan on making it this year. I want a match, so Max Carter, come out here and put me in a match. I don’t care against who.

As Green waits, its not Max’s music that hits its





Suddenly a large circle of fire arises in a quick counter-clockwise motion, before exploding upwards as a tall dark figure appears within the center of the flames. Followed just seconds later by the pounding beats of "Psychosocial" by Slipknot, as it blares across the helpless PA system. Exhaling calmly he moves casually down the ramp way with the bright white light behind him, as he slides into the ring in a black t-shirt with his logo design across the front clinging securely to his masculine frame.

Chase: Victor Hades is finally here in APW

Harvey: Another big name from EWC’s past that we we’re able to score.

Hades takes the mic

Hades: John, its been a long time. But I must say. Since our days in EWC. You, your actually good now. I’m quite impressed. But not impressed enough. I’m here now in APW and I plan to take this place by storm. And I plan on doing that by beating APW’s first World Champion. A former Xtreme Champion. And I want to do it….At SHOCKWAVE!

Fans cheer as Hade hands the mic back to John before can say anything, Row Row Fight the power hit’s the PA and out comes Zero with Shamel who makes their way right to the ring and Shamel grabs the mic

Shamel: Hades, what makes you think your important around here. Maybe you we’re a big shot in EWC, but here, your need to work your way to the top. The Zero may have only been here for a month, but he's already did more in a month than you will. He beat former world Champion Michael Lively. And He beat an APW Original earlier tonight. If anyone is taking this place by storm big boy, its THE ZERO! And since He's not in a match at Shockwave, considering he wanted to get my hands on Streets Wilson one more time, but it doesn’t look good for him at the moment, He wants to get involved in this.

Just then, Warrior by Kid Rock hit’s the PA and out comes another of APW’s newest wrestlers, Ted Bennett who debuts against Shadow later on tonight. Ted comes down to the ring with the fans booing and gets in, taking the mic from Shamel.

Ted: As I was getting ready for my debut match, I couldn’t help but overhear what you all we’re saying. This person did this. This person did that. Well I did the most important thing today. Before coming here, I made sure no more miserable illegal immigrants found their way into this great country.

Chase: I don’t know if I should cheer or boo that comment.

Ted: And I understand your all talking about Shockwave. Well, Being new here, I haven’t had a chance to make much enemies. But I want part of this event too. I don’t care who I fight. I don’t care if its you Green, You Hades or even you Zero.

Just then



Fans cheer as Max Carter comes out onto the stage with a mic in hand.

Max: I’m a busy man so I’ll make this quick. Since none of you have matches for Shockwave and all want to be part of the biggest event of the summer. I’ll put you all in a match. At Shockwave it will be John Green Verses Victor Hades Verses The Zero Verses Ted Bennett in a Fatal 4 Way Match!

The fans cheer as Max’s music hits again and we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

APW Overdrive comes back from a commercial break as “Warrior,” by Kid Rock, blares over the speakers as Ted Bennet steps out to a chorus of boos.

Nicky Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and is a non-title match. Making his way to the ring first, weighing in at 300 pounds, from Brownsville, Texas, “The Border Control Specialist” Ted Bennet!

Bennet walks down the ramp with an agitated look on his face, stopping about halfway down to exchange words with a Hispanic man before continuing on towards the ring. Once he reaches the ring, he steps in through the ropes and walks around methodically, awaiting his opponent.

Chase: This is our first opportunity to see Ted Bennet in action here in APW, and I'm excited to see what he's got!

Harvey: I'd be willing to wager that he's not the type to trade wristlocks and the like!

The crowd erupts in cheers as Alterbridge's “Metalingus” hits the speakers, and Shadow enters the arena clad in his black duster and APW Overdrive Championship Belt. He raises his title over his head before slinging back over his shoulder and heading towards the ring.

Paige: And his opponent, weighing in at 295 pounds, from Dallas, Texas, he is the APW Overdrive Champion, Shadow!

Harvey: Bennet certainly didn't draw an easy opponent tonight for his first match, in fact, he's taking on one of the best!

Chase: It's feast or famine here in APW! We don't protect the new guys, they're expected to come in and compete at a high level right off the bat!

Shadow slaps five with the fans as he walks down the ramp. When he enters the ring, he hands his belt to the ref, and removes his duster as the ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

Ted Bennet vs. Shadow

Harvey: Both of these men are power wrestlers, and are essentially the same size, though Shadow's a bit more muscular, so don't go into this one expecting a technical classic!

Chase: This one may end up being bowling shoe ugly by the end of things, but it will certainly be fun to watch!

The two men tie up in the middle of the ring, and Bennet shoves Shadow back! A slight grin comes across Shadow's face, and he ties up with Bennet again. This time, Shadow shoves Bennet back. Bennet is not amused, and rushes with his fist cocked, but Shadow counters with a Kick to the gut, allowing him to step in and deliver a Belly to Belly Suplex to the Border Control Specialist! Bennet has a scowl on his face as he gets back to his feet, staring a hole into Shadow. The two men circle around the ring, sizing each other up, and this time Bennet steps in, and manages to get a hold of Shadow's arm, whipping the Overdrive Champion into the corner! Bennet gets a running start and nails him with a Running Body Splash into the Turnbuckle! As Shadow stumbles out of the corner, Ted Bennet hits him with a stinging Open Palm Chop to the chest, knocking Shadow down! Bennet pulls Shadow back up and pushes him into the corner, delivering vicious Open Palm Chop after vicious Open Palm Chop with such force that it echoes through the arena! The crowd winces with each blow, and after about a dozen chops, Bennet pulls Shadow out of the corner and whips him towards the ropes, lifting him up on the rebound to hit with a Samoan Drop! Bennet goes for the cover, hooking the far leg, 1...Shadow powers his way out! Bennet stays on the attack, pulling Shadow up and giving him a few punches before whipping him towards the ropes again! This time, Shadow counters by delivering a Running Spear followed up with Punches to the Head with machine gun like rapidness! The crowd is getting behind Shadow he pulls Bennet back up to a vertical base, and hoists him up for an Atomic Drop! Bennet holds his bum in pain as Shadow runs towards the ropes and takes Bennet down with a Running Clothesline! Shadow goes for a cover of his own, but doesn't even get a one count! Before Bennet can get up, Shadow quickly locks on a Headscissors on the new competitor, slowing down the tempo of the match!

Harvey: This is a smart move by Shadow, because it really slows down this match! When two behemoths go at such a quick pace, those matches usually don't last long and end up looking like a train wreck by the end, so it behooves the champ to control the pace of this match.

Bennet slams the mat with his fist as he tries to break free of the hold. Shadow squeezes his legs closer together, turning the Border Control Specialist's face an even brighter shade of red! After a bit of a struggle, Bennet is able to roll onto his side, and Hammerfists Shadow's knee joint repeatedly, forcing Shadow to break the hold! As Shadow rubs his knee, Bennet grabs a hold of it, and drags Shadow towards the ring post! Bennet quickly hops out of the ring down to the floor, and grabs a hold of Shadow's leg, slamming it against the ring post! The ref is counting, warning Bennet to get back in the ring, while Bennet slams Shadow's knee against the post once more! Bennet takes the time to insult a fan in the front row before getting back into the ring on the count of nine, as Shadow holds his knee in pain! Bennet grabs a hold of Shadow's foot, and delivers a Standing Elbow Drop to the injured Knee Joint, and stays down, viciously punching the knee joint again and again before getting back up to his feet, and pulling Shadow up! The crowd boos loudly as gives Shadow a few punches to the face before turning him around and lifting him up for an Inverted Suplex! As Shadow lays face first on the mat, Bennet grabs him from behind in a Full Nelson, and pulls him up to his feet before delivering a Full Nelson Slam! Bennet goes for a pin, 1...2...Shadow kicks out!

Chase: I must say that I'm really impressed by Ted Bennet so far! He's really taking it to Shadow!

Harvey: Don't count Shadow out yet. Remember, he's still undefeated in singles matches!

Bennet gives Shadow a few punches to the face before going for another cover, 1...2... Shadow kicks out again! A mean look is glued to the face of Bennet as he lifts Shadow up again, kicking the champion in the knee a couple of time while holding him up, and then lifting him over his shoulder to hit with a Running Powerslam! Bennet has Shadow's shoulders to the mat, 1...2...Shadow kicks out again! The frustration is evident for Bennet as he slams the mat with his fist again, and this time as he pulls the champ up, Shadow gives him a punch to the face, sending Bennet staggering back a bit! The fans come alive as Shadow shakes his leg off a bit, and wraps his hand around the throat of the Border Control Specialist, lifting Bennet up for a Chokeslam! Unfortunately, Shadow can't immediately follow up, as his knee buckles a bit as he slams Bennet to the mat! Shadow is rubbing his knee while he waits for his opponent to get back up. Bennet shakes the cobwebs out of his head as he gets to his feet, only to get whipped towards the ropes by Shadow! On the rebound, Shadow catches him up to hit with a ring shaking Sidewalk Slam! Shadow goes for a cover, 1...2...Bennet kicks out! Shadow is still nursing his knee as he gets back to his feet, and as Bennet gets back up, Shadow gives him a kick to the gut, and as Bennet hunches over, Shadow gets behind him to hit with a Belly to Back Drop! Shadow tweaks his knee with the move though, and grits his teeth as he drags himself over to cover Bennet, 1...2...Bennet kicks out again!

Harvey: We have seen power move after power move in this contest, and several near falls!

Chase: The thing about these Super Heavyweight matches is that they can be over just like that! This is high impact wrestling we're seeing tonight!

Harvey: And what about Shadow's knee? He's a proud competitor, for sure, but the longer this match goes, the more you have to think it favors Bennet! Still, both men probably are looking to end this one quickly!

Back in the ring, Bennet is the first to his feet, and he pulls Shadow the rest of the way up, whipping him towards the ropes! After a couple of steps, Shadow's knee gives out, and he stumbles down to one knee! Bennet comes from behind to grab Shadow, but Shadow counters with an Elbow to the jaw! As Shadow gets to his feet, Bennet collects himself, and rushes in to hit with a Running Boot to the back of the head of Shadow! The fans boo as Bennet pulls Shadow back up to deliver a Stacking Powerbomb Pin, 1...2...Shadow somehow kicks out!

Chase: I thought Bennet had Shadow there! What a brutal combination of the boot to the head and the Stacking Pin Powerbomb!

Harvey: Shadow is tough, no doubt!

At this point, Bennet is getting really frusterated, but stays focused, pulling Shadow up and hooking him in the Pump Handle position! He lifts him up for The Deportation Pump Handle Piledriver, but before he can pull it off, Shadow slips down behind him, and gives him a Forearm Shot to the back of the head! He then turns Bennet around, and lifts him up for The Eclipse, nailing it for the pin, 1...2...3! DING! DING! DING!

Winner: Shadow

Paige: Here is your winner, by pinfall, Shadow!

Harvey: That was a knockdown, dragout fight! Bennet was impressive in his debut, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Overdrive Champion, Shadow!

Chase: This match could have gone either way, and I felt that Bennet had it won on several occasions! This match may not have been pretty, but it sure was fun to watch!

“Metalingus” plays loudly as Shadow celebrates his win in the ring! As we go to commercial

[President Jeff]

The arena lights fade to a dim blue as “Spaceman,” by The Killers, begins to play over the loudspeakers. Blue laser lights, strobe lights, and spot lights flash all over the arena as Biggs enters the arena, drawing loud boos from the crowd.

Nicky Paige: Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 217 pounds, from Seattle, Washington, Biggs!

Chase: Biggs sure looked mighty impressive last week against Level-One!

Harvey: He certainly displayed his athleticism, I'll give him that, but he still lost the match!
Chase: Details, details!

Biggs reaches the ring, slings himself over the ropes, and grabs the mic from Nicky.

Harvey: Oh no! The big mouth has a mic!

Biggs: Before my match with Slade, there's a few things I wanted to say in regards to Shadow. Firstly, it's about time that you answered my challenge, agreeing to face me in a match at Shockwave! However, some of the things that you said while accepting my challenge were more than a bit erroneous! The first glaring error of you little tirade was that you stated the last time I stepped in the ring with a member of A.K.A., that I got beaten. Need I remind you that I own a pinfall victory over your departed ally Assassin, or that after I thoroughly embarrassed him, my good friend Chris Cyrus sent him fleeing from APW following their Xtreme Title Match at Test for the Best!

Harvey: Well that's one way to explain it. It's wrong, but it's one way...

Biggs: The second fallacy was that you said that you enjoyed seeing me not get what I wanted, a shot at your APW Overdrive Championship. I never said that I wanted that title, only that I wanted to fight you! This has never been about the Overdrive Championship, Shadow, it's about the disrespect you showed me at the Mayhem pay per view! But since you're more than happy to part with your Overdrive Championship, I'll gladly take that belt off your hands! You were too quick to offer your title, thus showing your impulsive nature. As much as you'd like to think otherwise, Shadow, I've been in control this whole time! You thought that you could deal with me at your leisure, but I knew that once I got The Beast involved, you could no longer ignore my challenge! You're predictable, Shadow, and that's why I did get what I wanted, a match with you to prove you wrong for what you said about me at Mayhem!

As Biggs stands in the ring, Craven’s music begins to play. The fans begin to cheer wildly as Slade walks out from backstage wearing baggy blue jeans, a black shirt and a his old leather jacket. Craven is all business as he walks down the ramp with a purpose. Biggs waits until Slade is halfway and then begins to speak.

Biggs: Whoa, whoa, whoa, cut the music. Slade, how rude of you to interrupt me while I was talking!

Craven does not have a microphone so he just yells back.

Slade: Oh you think this is a game?

Biggs: You're just like Shadow, Slade, horribly predictable. Let's see if you if could predict that!

Biggs points behind Slade. Craven turns around and sees The Beast walking slowly out from backstage. Biggs starts laughing as Slade looks back to the ring and then to the Beast who makes his way down the ramp. Then Slade reaches into his jacket and pulls out a kendo stick, which Slade kept tucked into the leg of his pants as he walked out. The fans begin to cheer as Slade motions for someone to try something. The Beast doesn’t stop walking towards Slade though. Craven waits until he gets close then brings the kendo stick down over The Beast’s head, and it doesn’t slow the big guy down. Craven starts backing towards the ring as he gets ready to swing again. This time The Beast reaches up and grabs the kendo stick and doesn’t let go. Craven tries to yank it back but his adversary just yanks it from his hand and tosses it behind him. Slade swings with a right hand and The Beast takes a solid punch to the face, but doesn’t slow down. Craven takes another step back to the ring. Biggs stands in the ring with a smile and waits as Craven gets close enough to the apron then runs and hits him from behind with a baseball slide. Craven stumbles forward into the Beast who grabs him into a double hand choke hold, lifting him into the air and tossing him back into the ropes, causing Slade to bounce off them while The Beast side steps and Craven hit’s the mat with a solid face plant. Biggs gets out of the ring and begins to stomp on Slade, before he begins to direct traffic having the Beast haul Slade up and whip him into the steel steps with a crush.

Chase: Some plan Slade had.

Harvey: We need some help out here! This match hasn’t even started!

Chase: Help? No one can help Slade.

Suddenly Alterbridge’s Metalingus begins to play as the fans erupt into cheers. Shadow comes out from backstage wearing his leather duster ready for a fight. He makes his way down the ramp as The Beast turns and gets ready for an all out collision. But then a security guard steps behind Shadow as he and grabs the kendo stick Slade brought out. Shadow is getting ready to swing for the fences when the guard nails Shadow in the back with a nightstick.

Harvey: What?

The security guard pulls off his hat and we see that the third attacker is none other than Chris Cyrus.

Chase: Yes!

Shadow falls forward as the Beast nails him with a right hand taking him off his feet. Biggs leaves Slade crumpled up in the steps and walks over and picks up the kendo stick

Biggs: (Eerily calm) Shadow, like I said earlier, you are far too predictable! You see, since you told me last week that I would be scheduled to face Slade this week, I knew that this match wasn't going to happen. Sure, I could fight Slade, and beat him, but it wouldn't be nearly as effective as what we've just accomplished. I knew that once you saw your buddy in trouble, you'd impulsively rush out like the supposed hero you are, and that I could exploit that. The fact is that I am always one step ahead of you, Shadow, and that is why at Shockwave, I will become the new APW Overdrive Champion. But before we get there, Shadow, I've got another plan for you, one that will come to fruition just like my plan tonight. Next week, on Overdrive, you get to face THE BEAST!

The crowd is in an uproar as he hits Shadow over the head with the kendo stick and Shadow falls back to the ramp as Biggs continues to hit him with the weapon. Slade starts to gets up and Cyrus has already approached him, grabbing Slade by the back on the head and slams him face first into the steel steps. Then he brings the nightstick down across Slade’s face. Blood trickles from Slade’s cheek as he drops to the mat. Biggs swings the stick a final time and it snaps in half. The Beast stands over Shadow looming and gazing down at the hurt man. Cyrus and Biggs starts backing up the ramp with The Beast and huge smiles plastered across their faces.

Harvey: We need some help down here!

Chase: Who is going to come? The last time you said that Shadow got laid out!

Both men in the A.K.A. are left laying broken at ring side while the Axis of Awesome stands triumphantly at the top of the stage before going backstage and we head to its last commercial break.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back on the air with Nicky Paige in the ring for the contract signing.

Paige: Now introducing first the number 1 contender for the APW world heavyweight championship…Jesse Nunez!

"Basic Thugonomics Remix" begins to play on the PA. The fans jump out of their seats cheering. People watching at home see Jesse's titantron playing on their screen for a few moments. Then it returns to the stage area and Jesse is standing there looking down at his feet with his forearms crossed in front of him. He stands there for a few moments as then Jesse lifts his head up and gives a smirk as he then puts his arms in the air doing the “Word Life” hands as the fans cheer. The camera zooms out from the rafters to show the whole arena on their feet. The camera then zooms back in front of Jesse along with his wife Victoria. Jesse is wearing his black "The Prodigy" t-shirt with a chain with dog tags around his neck. He also has on a black hat on his head. The hat reads "The Prodigy" on the front and his name on the back, the hat is tilted slightly to the right of his head so that is barely covering his right eye.

Every time the song starts to scratch, Jesse does the “You Can’t See Me” wave with his right arm which has the black basketball shooting sleeve on it; waving his hands in-front of his face he removes his hat throwing into the crowd to their appeasement. Jesse Nunez sprints down the ramp, and slides under the bottom rope with his wife Victoria following him close behind but at much slower pace. One in the ring Jesse Nunez admires the classy set up, the red carpet graces the surface of the ring, with a black table accompanied by two chairs. Jesse Nunez throws himself down into the chair casually, as he wait’s the entry of Level-One.

Chase: Jesse Nunez is a moron. Doesn’t he realize how out of Level-One’s league he is?

Harvey: I think you give Level-One too much credit; he can be beaten and has on a few occasions.

It appears as if Jesse Nunez doesn’t have to wait too long.

Level-One emerges from behind the curtain with the world heavyweight championship strapped around his waist, accompanied by a sly grin. The fans stand up displaying a sign of resistance as loud boos escape their mouths. Level-One makes his way down the ramp, never once looking at Jesse Nunez as he works his way towards the ring. Jesse Nunez in his mind wasn’t worthy a title shot; ignoring him seemed to emphasize his attitude. Slipping under the bottom rope; Level-One turned to Paige who placed the contract on the table in front of Jesse.

Harvey: Chase I can’t imagine Level-One is going to be too happy about this contract signing tonight.

Chase: Why should he? Do you know how much his signature is WORTH, Harvey?

‘’Get me a microphone’’ Level-One demanded; his voice lost upon the listeners at home. Victoria stood outside the ring with worry drawn upon her pretty face; but Jesse Nunez offered up a confident head nod to ease her worries. Receiving a microphone, Level-One began to speak.

Level One: ‘’Jesse Nunez, you cocky son of a bitch--you think you can get whatever you want whenever you want it! I have sent out letters; complaints and left hundreds of voice messages on the APW’S answering machine in regards to having this match called off. Only to find out this week; some snaggle toothed moron by the name of President Jeff decided to set up a contract signing--this ridiculous ceremony in which guarantees our match goes through’’

The crowd starts a ‘’wipe your tears’’ chant; over and over again to Jesse Nunez’s pleasure as he smiles and leans back in his chair.

Level One: ‘’So this is what’s going to happen; I am going to take this contract, I am going to fold it--and I am going to wipe my fucking ass with it! I am NOT signing this ridiculous contract. I will NOT hand over my rights to having REAL competition step into the ring with me. Lastly, I will NOT put my contract into something that is twelve pages long’’

Level-One says; as he holds up the contract.

Level One: ‘’…I don’t have all day to read fine print’’

Before Level-One knows it; the contract has been snatched from his hands. The crowd cheers as Jesse Nunez slams it down on the table; and signs his name on the dotted line. Reaching over he grabs the microphone from Level-One.

Jesse: ‘’If you don’t want to sign the contract dog, I’m sure I’m not gonna’ have any trouble finding someone who will’’

Jesse Nunez claims in bold as he holds up his pen to the crowds cheer.

Jesse: ‘’So what’s it going to be, champ?’’

Jesse Nunez slowly lowers the microphone awaiting Level-One’s answer. Level-One lowers his head and smirks. Jesse Nunez appears to be making way, as Level-One leans over and flips to the backstage. Placing the pen to the table, he immediately extends a foot catching Jesse Nunez in the groin with a cheap shot!

Chase: HAHA, one for the good guys!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Jesse Nunez is shaken; as Level-One removes the world heavyweight championship from his shoulders; bounces off the ropes and smashes the APW world heavyweight championship across the skull of Jesse Nunez. Nunez hit’s the mat as Victoria covers her mouth in shock. The crowd boos as Level-one raises the title in victory, but just as quickly as the boos returned they had left…

Harvey: It’s Pence Weatherlight!

Chase: What the heck is he wearing!?

Pence Weatherlight sporting black and white stripes comes sprinting down the ramp at full speed, sliding under the bottom rope. Level-One realizes his and lines up for Pence Weatherlights head; but Pence ducks under the title shot and catches Level-One with a string of right hands. Level-One shakes it off; and comes charging towards Pence like a bull, but Pence scoops his shoulder up sending Level-One through the table behind him…

SMASH!

Level-One lies in the remains of a broken table; while Jesse Nunez recoils from a title shot to the face. Pence Weatherlight admires the damage in the ring to the crowds appeasement before walking over to the broken table, picking up the contract the lies in the wreckage. Pence Weatherlight causally flips through the contract, before pulling a pen out of his own…

Pence has signed the contract.

Pence:‘’Say hello to your special guest referee’’

Pence calls out; as the crowd gives an enormous pop.

Chase: WHAT!?

Harvey: Pence Weatherlight just signed the contract; Pence Weatherlight appears to be the special guest referee for the title match as shockwave!

Chase: THAT ISN’T EVEN FAIR!

Harvey: I’m sure Pence will call it straight down the middle, Chase. We’ll be back next week on Wednesday night overdrive, see you soon folks!

Pence Weatherlight raises his hands high above his head as the scene slowly fades out; and the overdrive logo eases in.
