Overdrive - Moscow, Russia(10/14/09)

[President Jeff]

Overdrive opens up with clips from last week’s main event. And then it cuts to Max Carter seated at the desk in his office as The Axis of Awesome barges in without knocking. Biggs and Chris Cyrus stand right in front of the desk, glaring at Carter, with The Beast looming behind them. Carter looks up from his paper work with an annoyed look on his face.

Max Carter is seated at the desk in his office as The Axis of Awesome barges in without knocking. Biggs and Chris Cyrus stand right in front of the desk, glaring at Carter, with The Beast looming behind them. Carter looks up from his paper work with an annoyed look on his face.

Carter: (annoyed tone) Is there something I can help you with?

Biggs: You have a lot of nerve booking us in the Double Title Tag Team Ladder Match against the AKA at One Night In Hell! As if you hadn't already shown enough blatant bias and favoritism torwards those losers at Shockwave by making my match take place in the Steel Cage and forcing Cyrus to defend his belt in a Blaze of Glory match, you have the audacity to place us in another match that inherently tips the scales in favor of The AKA!

Cyrus: You know that I've disavowed the hardcore style, and yet you put me in a match that practically forces me to break those vows!

Biggs: Putting both of our titles on the line in a match that isn't based on actual wrestling skill, but rather plain, dumb luck, is flat out irresponsible on your part!

Cyrus: It's bulls***!

Carter: I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I'm just giving the fans what they want to see! Also, I don't appreciate the fact that you two just burst in here without knocking and talk to me in the manner which you have! In all honesty, you two are only giving me more reason to show favoritism to the AKA, not that I have, but I would be justified to!

Biggs: So you're saying that the fans want to see the Axis of Awesome screwed out of their titles because Max Carter abused his power and booked a match that gives the AKA every advantage? Well, we're not going to give you, nor the fans, that satisfaction, Max, because just like at Shockwave, The Axis of Awesome will overcome all the odds and prove ourselves to be the dominant faction here in APW! And if for some fluke reason we end up losing our titles at the pay per view, well, then you're going to have a big problem on your hands!

At this point, The Beast cracks his knuckles.

Carter: Are you threatening me?

Cyrus: No, but our friend is...

Cyrus nods to The Beast as The Axis makes their way to the exit. The Beast gives Carter an intimidating glare before following Biggs and Cyrus out.





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: Tonight is the last Overdrive before One Night in Hell in less than 2 weeks away and what a main event we have scheduled for you tonight

Harvey: what can be considered as the biggest Main event in Overdrive history, an 8 man tag. Pence Weatherlight, Jesse Nunez and the AKA will take on Level One, Victor Hades and the Axis of Awesome!

Chase: I can’t wait for that. That match will set the tone for One Night in Hell, I can feel it

Harvey: Also tonight, we have a Special best of 3 Challenge between Michael Lively and BDC. If Lively wins this, those two will face off at One Night in Hell

Chase: I’m so excited for tonight, lets get to our opening match.

The camera goes to the ring where Nicky Paige is standing.

Paige: The opening Contest is scheduled for one fall

As "Rock Superstar" begins to play, the lights go out and you can see yellow star shaped spotlights move all over the arena. After a few moments a giant pyro explosion goes off at the top of the ramp and all the star spotlights move to the entrance as Rocky Starr steps out and poses with his arms held straight out to his sides which sets off another pyro explosion and the lights come back on.

Paige: Hailing from Santa Barbara California, weighing in at 240 pounds, ROCKY STARR

Rocky walks to the ring with a confident smile and slaps the hands of fans along the way. When he gets to the rings he walks up the stairs and walks to the middle of the apron. He stops and poses once more and poses with his arms out once more. He turns around, grabs a hold of the top rope and jumps over. He walks across the ring and climbs up the turn buckle and poses once more.

Paige: And his opponent

"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, Weighing in at 265 pounds….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.

Rocky Starr Vs John Green

Rocky and John lock up in the middle of the ring and John locks in a headlock and takes Rocky over. John keeps the headlock intact and Rocky gets to his feet and Green takes Rocky over again. Rocky’s face is starting to turn read as he gets back to his feet, and a third time, Green takes Rocky over with a headlock and The fans start to boo and a chant begins "THIS IS BORING….THIS IS BORING"

Chase: The fans are letting them know how the feel.

Harvey: And I must say, the fans are always right.

Rocky and Green are back to their Feet with Green still with the headlock on and Rocky this time, pushes Green off. Green hit’s the ropes and comes back and Rocky gets in a waist lock on Green, then grabs his legs, making Green fall face first and Rocky jumps over to Greens head and locks in a headlock of his own. And the fans start a new chant "BULL SHIT…BULL SHIT…BULL SHIT"

Harvey: I don’t think the fans are into this match

Chase: There’s only one man in APW who is the master of the Headlock, and that is Chris Cyrus.

Green gets up and gets out of the headlock with a side belly to back suplex. Green brings Rocky to the corner and chops him. Green throws Rocky into the opposite corner and Rocky bounces out and Green grabs Rocky with another headlock take over. The fans are quick to start another chant "CHANGE THE CHANNEL…..CHANGE THE CHANNEL….CHANGE THE CHANNEL"

Harvey: Oh how I love Wrestling fans

Chase: Wait a second, what’s going on

Harvey: Who’s that

Just then, two fans jump the ring barrier, avoiding the Security and jump into the ring. One of the guys is Skinny and is ecstatic that he’s in the ring. The other man is bigger and looks more of a wrestler.

Chase: Wait a second, I know who that is. The big guy is Scott Rock and the other guy looks to be the Mark Moment, the famous wrestling fan from Youtube!

Green see’s Scott and goes after him, and Scott is quick to kick Green and nails him with the Straight Jacket. Rocky gets up and Scott then gives Rocky the Straight Jacket. Scott then takes Rocky and Green and lay them next to each other near the corner and Mark Moment climbs the top rope. The fans are cheering and he comes off with a 450 splash. The fans stand up with another chant. "THANK YOU NEW GUYS…..THANK YOU NEW GUYS"

Harvey: As ruthless as the fans are, at least their polite.

Winner: No Contest

Mark Moment celebrates as Scott looks on as we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back from commercial. The cameras go backstage where you see Scott Rock and Mark Moment walk backstage

Mark: That was so awesome what we did. Especially when I hit my Marking Out move. The crowd loved us. We’re over night celebrities.

Just then, The O’Connor Brothers show up with beer in their hands

Austin: Aye Lads, I’m Austin, and Dis is me Brother Aiden

Aiden: Good Job out there tonight

Mark: OH MY FREAKIN GOD! THE O’CONNOR BROTHERS!!!! it’s the O’Connor Broithers Scotts. Austin and Aiden. Right here, in front of me. This is so awesome. Can I get your Autographs?

Mark pulls out a marker from his pocket

Austin: No problem lad. Aiden, Hold me Drink

Mark hands Austin the marker and puts his arm out.

Mark: Sign right under President Jeff.

Scott looks at Mark’s arm

Scott: Do you have tattooed autographs on your body?

Mark: Just my arms.

Austin signs his name and then Aiden does

Mark: Thanks so much guys.

Aiden: Welcome to APW

Mark: Can I ask one more thing.

Austin: Sure.

Mark: This might seem a bit weird, but can I have a drink with you guys.

Austin: Aiden, give him your drink, I’ll buy you a new one.

Aiden gives Mark his beet and Mark starts drinking and then Max Carter shows up

Max: What the Hell are you doing?

Mark chokes a bit on the beer before saying

Mark: Its ok, I’m not Underage.

Max: No, You and Scott, I invited you guys here to Overdrive. I Flied you here to Russia with my own money so you can see the quality of show that we have, not for you guys to ruin a match.

Scott: You may have a quality show, but from what I saw so far, you don’t have quality talent. So we did you a favor because the people watching, did decide to change the channel and you lost your ratings.

Max: Looks like we got a smart ass here. Well, since your both eager to get into the ring, how about I give you your first match at One Night in Hell. And How about We make it a tag match. Scott Rock and Mark Moment Verses….. THE O’CONNOR BROTHERS! And one more thing, since this is a Gimmick Pay Per View, your guy’s match, we’re gonna take the ropes, and replace them with Barbwire. Have fun.

Max walks away as we go back to ringside where Assassin and Joe Martinez are already in the ring ready for their match

Assassin Vs Joe Martinez

The bell rings as both competitors lock up in the middle of the ring trying to gain an early advantage of such. Clearly both men are almost evenly matched in terms of strength, but a shift in weight from Joe sends the larger Assassin forward and into a head lock. Joe locks it in strong and tells Assassin to give up, but Assassin pushes Joe into the ropes forcing him to release the hold on threat of disqualification. As Joe backs off, Assassin begins to punch Joe in the gut repeatedly until Joe is doubled over and the ref pulls Assassin off of him. Assassin gets ready to charge and then rushes at Joe and clothes lines him over the ropes.

Joe gets up and rolls himself back into the ring and is instantly attacked by Assassin and then lifted up for a power bomb of such, but Joe reverses it by punching Assassin in the face repeatedly. Joe goes into an improvised pin and the ref goes quickly to count.

Assassin kicks out and Joe looks upset about it and begins to wail on Assassin while he is on the mat. Assassin gets back up to a vertical basis and pushes Joe off of him. Joe comes back and gets punched in the face. Both of them begin to send lefts and rights at each other until finally Joe gains the advantage and pushes him over the top rope and to the floor below. Joe gets out as well and begins to beat up on Assassin the ref begins to count.

Winner: No Contest! [/center]

As both men reach the top of the ramp the lights go down and "Immortal" by Adema starts playing, the fans begin to go nuts as Joe and Assassin look up at the entrance ramp to see Pence standing there shaking his head in disgust. He holds a microphone and a chair and is dressed in his in-ring attire.

Pence: Clearly both of you are no better than that vile ass hat Level One. Neither of you care about the entertainment value of this show, all you care about is breaking each other down, and ruining a match tonight. Get out of my sight before I show you just what my weapons training has gotten to with a steel chair.

Joe and Assassin walk pass Pence. Pence makes his way down to the ring to the cheers of the fans and then gets into the center. He opens up the steel chair and takes a seat on it, surveying the whole arena from where he sits.

Pence: Sorry about that folks, I hope that the main event will make up for the crap you just witnessed. Clearly they have forgotten that they are payed to entertain and just decided that they would waltz around this match like a bunch of ass holes. I'm not here to talk about how these two competitors make me and you all feel. I am here to discuss what happened on the last Overdrive and why it will not work at One Night in Hell.

Pence smiles as the fans begin to chant "Reaper" repeatedly. He adjusts his position on the seat and lets the chants die down before beginning again.

Pence: Folks last week on this show I was assaulted by a rather idiotic Level One, taking advantage of an opening that I clearly had put out. I am however here to reveal that I expected an attack from him and purposefully allowed him to have his little angry fit of rage.

The fans look around confused as to what Pence means by 'allowed him to'. Pence speaks up again this time louder.

Pence: I allowed Level One to assault me on the last Overdrive to measure him, to weigh him ounce to ounce in comparison to me. My measurements show that he is not only as strong as he was at Test for the Best, but he has not improved an ounce since then honestly. Level One has not improved and he knows he has not improved, that is why he is targeting me like he is, trying to make me go through trials, and such. He is trying to injure me before the big dance at One Night in Hell can occur because he knows that every second that I train, no, that I breathe....I am getting stronger. He can sense that this tension between the two of us these past four months has not been beneficial to himself, but more of a benefit to me. Ladies and gentlemen I guarantee a blood bath at One Night in Hell, that is something that Level One can not promise you. He can not promise you the same level of carnage that I can, he can only visualize what he can do, but I can show you what I can do.

Tonight ladies and gentlemen is a preview of major matches that will be occurring at One Night in Hell, tonight is sort of like a proving ground if you will. Someone tonight will be injured, someone tonight will be broken and beaten, I guarantee you Lester that the man who will be broken, the man that will be beaten is not me, but you. Tonight Lester when you decide to come out here and see all of these fans unanimously booing your sorry ass out of the god damn arena because you are a dick, I want you to remember what you have done. I want you to remember that you have brought this on yourself, this swagger that you bring out when you walk out to the ring, that false sense of confidence that you think is real, and that fake notion that you built this company, I want you to remember it so that when all of this fake world that you have built around yourself comes crashing down on you, that at least you will have the faintest glint of a memory of what you once had.

Maybe some day you will be more than a false prophet, but that day is no where in sight. Tonight Level One all of your world comes to an end and the beginning of the Pence Weatherlight Championship Reign shines upon this world once again and I ensure you if you have any hope of trying to wiggle a rematch clause into your loss at One Night in Hell, I want you to remember the pain. I want you to remember the pain you receive tonight and the pain that you will be receiving at One Night in Hell, and then I want you to think twice. Then ask yourself is this really worth it...all of this pain...for a belt that you don't even deserve. After tonight I want you to take a look in the mirror and see just what type of animal you have become. I want you to see the vile beast that you have transformed into, I want you to see it for yourself so that maybe finally, after you are buried deep under ground when One Night in Hell ends, you can finally change for the better. So enjoy this time you have left because it all ends tonight.

The fans all cheer as Pence folds the chair back up and exits the ring, chair and microphone in hand.

[President Jeff]

Backstage Slade Craven is standing in the A.K.A’s Office. In his hand is a small off white envelope. Its torn and still has some masking tape on it. Slade is alone in the office as he debates whether or not he wants to read the note again. His mind keeps thinking back to what happened earlier in the day then, the envelope is ripped from his hand. Craven whips around to see Shadow standing there, where he came from no one knows.

Shadow: This what got your panties in a twist man?

Slade- Give it back bro.

Craven is showing the same signs of anger he did last time he took a swing at Shadow.

Slade- You don’t know what’s going on.

Assassin// Then enlighten us!

Craven turns around again to see Assassin leaning against the wall. Slade had been so preoccupied with the contents of the envelope he let his guard down, they were able to sneak up on him.

Slade- It’s my problem. I will deal with it. Just give it back Shadow.

Craven looks at his tag partner and extends his hand for the envelope. Shadow opens the flap.

Shadow: No, it’s our problem, because this has you head in the clouds. You need to focus on the match tonight and you have been staring at this envelope all god damn night. Now you either tell me what’s in this, or I will look.

Slade- Don’t do this man.

Assassin// Why don’t you explain why Rorschach was at the hotel last night?

“The Main Man” looks at his friend, stunned that Assassin knows. He just stares at him for a minute, unsure of what to say.

Slade- How…?

Assassin// It doesn’t matter, now answer the Goddamn question.

Slade- I don’t know why he was there. He gave me some photos.

Assassin// Photos? Photos of who?

Shadow: Torri.

The big man’s voice is not as loud as it was before. It’s plastered with shock. The mood changes in the room as Slade looks back to see Shadow has already opened the envelope. The letter inside has been read. Slade looks defeated, he was trying to keep it a secret but now the truth has come out. Like Dita Morgan was to Shadow, Slade’s long lost love was returning, but this wasn’t a letter from her. She wasn’t coming back for him.

Slade- Rorschach, he found out she was back in Dallas. She owns Bete Noir.

Shadow: Bete Noir? What’s that?

Assassin// A night club, a bad one. I thought Rorschach owned it.

Slade- So did I.

Assassin// This is bad.

Slade- It’s worse. She’s going there.

Assassin// Women don’t go there. Not unless they plan on getting raped.

Shadow is silent, he is stunned, this is stuff he never knew about. Assassin and Slade argue for a moment about what would happen if she goes to that club.

Shadow: Well what are you going to do?

Slade- I don’t know. I have to go there.

Shadow: Not tonight you don’t. This is Russia man. Across the world. We got things to do. Are you going to be worth a damn tonight? Cause if not then maybe Assassin should take your place.

Slade- Hell no man. I got this. Its just.

Assassin// It’s alright man. I understand.

His friend puts a hand on Slade’s shoulder as he looks as Shadow and to the letter in his hand. Craven didn’t want them to find out. He had to see Torri, but not tonight. He had plans.

Shadow: We got to go man. It’s almost time.

Slade- Yeah.

He nods and Shadow extends his hand. Slade takes it and shakes in once. Then Shadow turns and walks towards the door, after a minute Assassin just silently walks out to. Slade remains in the A.K.A. office alone thinking for a moment. Finally he leans his head back and exhales slowly. Too much to do, no time to do it in.

Slade- Lets do this.

Craven grabs his jacket and heads for the entryway.

"Scars" by Papa Roach blares on the P.A. System as Jason Royce comes out through the curtains to a mixed reaction and poses as the flaming pyro goes off and the strobe lights flash like camera flashes are going off and he flexes cockily then heads to the ring.

Nicky Paige: "The following contest is for one fall, first making his way to the ring from Chicago, Illinois...weighing in at two-hundred and twenty-two pounds...Jason Royce!"

Royce hops onto the ring apron and slips into the ring, before circling around preparing for Streets Wilson.

Harvey: "I swear to god Royce reminds me of someone I used to know..."

Chase: "Another wrestler, you mean?"

Harvey: "Hmm, no nevermind this guy hardly shows up I can't even remember his name."

"Hellz Wind Staff" by Wu-Tang Clan blares as Streets Wilson emerges from behind the curtain smiling widely, spinning a switchblade in his hand as he does so. Small children in the front row are petrified, their parents desperately trying to console them. Streets pompously struts past the rabid screaming fans. As he steps into the ring he forms an "S" shape with his hands towards the crowd and then removes his trademark fedora from his head, places his blade inside it and places it in his corner of the ring.

Nicky Paige: "His...opponent...hailing from, Stamford Connecticut weighing in at two-hundred and sixty-seven pounds...Streets Wilson!"

[ Ding! Ding! Ding! ]
Jason Royce Vs Streets Wilson

The match would start with more trash-talking and pushing rather than actual wrestling, as there appeared to be none. Let alone any skill shown from either man as they both attempted to out-talk the other. The packed crowd would nearly boo the match on as both men rolled around, slapping and choking one another before attempting to outwrestle the other.

At one point-Streets Wilson going to the top rope, racks himself as he loses his footing and humiliates himself in the process. Royce would go for a top rope Hurricarana and slips, lands on his head. Streets embarressed by the fans reaction crawls out of the ring and moves to the announcer's table. Meanwhile Royce on the other side of the ring, reaches under the ring. The two would rush eachother around the turnbuckle post and collide with a chairshot to eachother knocking themselves out.

[ Ding! Ding! Ding! ]

Nicky Paige: "Ladies and gentleman the senior official as informed me to rule this match a no contest due to a double-disqualification!"

Chase: "Is President Jeff seriously holding these two on the pay-roll?! That was...my god that was the worst thing I've ever seen."

Harvey: "Y'know what I say to that?"

Chase: "What?"

Harvey: "T-the'-th-t-tha-THAT'S ALL FOLKS!"


The footage opens to a dark open desolate field in a disclosed location approximately earlier in the night before, as red tail-lights of a black BMW glow in the darkness. Gleaming upon what appears to be a man digging a large, yet precise measured hole. Closing in as a small light appears shining over the hole, Victor Hades rises from the dirt and filth with shovel in hand, sporting mud smeared across his masculine chest and tattooed arms. Carefully holding a sinister expression upon his face growing a small sadistic grin...

Victor Hades-"Have you enjoyed the torment, the intensity, the thrill, the emotion, and the mind games we've played Jesse? Have you learned nothing since our first encounter, have you not learned you cannot fucking stop me? That your very existence no longer matters to anyone, that you are nothing more than a slot to be filled on this precious roster? I hope you have Jesse, because at One Night in Hell...I'm going to teach you the final lesson you need to learn...do not...fuck with...Victor Hades."

Victor continues to shovel dirt aside, scooping more and more shovels full from the hole growing the grave deeper.

Victor Hades-"The rains have now stopped-but it’s only the quiet before the real storm. Sealed away for eternity in a casket match, buried-alive six feet under…who would have thought that it would come to this, that it could become so personal. Each time you’ve felt the clutches of these cold bloodied fists, you grew stronger, yet more tiresome to be dealt with. Now you have left me with no other choice, I must now be your judge, your jury, and your fucking executioner. If it takes destroying the APW to destroy you Jesse, well then that is exactly what I’m going to fucking do. You MUST be extinguished, I WILL NOT suffer your catchphrases, your ass-wiping material excuse for merchandise, or you’re fucking incompetence any longer! Why don’t you try and imagine what those last few breaths of air will taste like, try and imagine what it will be like, trying to claw your way through that casket. Before having to attempt to claw your way through a dark, cold, and muddy bottom-less pit of which you cannot escape. Nunez, my work here is nearly at its end, as is your existence on this god forsaken green earth. All that’s left to do is to fill this grave with your rotting, maggot-infested carcass after a night in Hell. You’re right, no one will hear you...and you sure won’t...be seen. Bitch."

The sounds of Victoria, Jesse Nunez's pregnant wife can be heard slightly muffed coming from the car.

Victor Hades-"Shut it bitch! Women shouldn't speak..."

Victor screams snapping his head towards the car, as the camera angle now switches inside the deep grave at Victor's feet.

Victor Hades-"Jesse-this is the last fucking thing...you will ever see."

Hades begins shoveling dirt onto the camera lens until the scene fades to darkness...

[ Cut to commercial... ]

[President Jeff]

As Overdrive comes back from commercial we go back stage. The image of Max Carter standing very impatiently can be seen. The mans foot tapping on the ground as he then tilts his head downward to check his watch. Just then the echoing footsteps of Michael Lively can be heard as he strolls upon the GM of Overdrive. Carter looks up at the man with somewhat of a concerned look on his face. This isn't the concern for Michael Lively, only concern for ratings, and the fact that three seconds have gone by and that is huge for advertising.

Max Carter: Nice of you to arrive on time Lively, now where is BDC?

Lively shrugs his shoulder as if he could care less.

Lively: The poor old bastard is probably waiting for his denture glue to dry so his false'zies don't tumble out his mouth.

Just then the big man can be seen walking down the hallway. His face none to pleased with the situation he has been roped into.

Max Carter: You know BDC, when I say the segment begins at a certain time, the talent should arrive at a certain time.

BDC leans against the wall with a nonchalant attitude crossing his arms.

BDC: You know Carter, I'm half tempted to end this entire thing by simply kicking your ass, and requesting you in a match.

The GM chuckles a bit and realizes the big man is far from kidding. Carter then quickly diverts the heat.

Max Carter: Listen big man if your scarred Lively is going to win the best of three challenge which would in turn make you have to step in the ring and possibly lose there as well, just say so. There is no need for simple swerve attempt by directing your anger toward me.

Carter then turns around as the camera follows him to show what seems to be a large object covered by an even bigger black curtain of sorts. The GM turns toward the two men and looks right at either one ready to reveal the first challenge.

Max Carter: Gentlemen...your first challenge in the best of three series is...


The curtain then drops for dramatic effect.

















Max Carter: A HOT DOG EATING CHALLENGE!!!

BDC and Michael Lively both look at each other in disgust. Lively's eyes show concern for this first event as if his larger opponent may pull out the victory.

BDC: Well Max, I would have to say this is clearly unfair. I mean going into a hot dog eating challenge, I and the world know it is nearly impossible to beat Michael Lively.

Lively smirks a bit as the big man feeds his ego.

BDC: You see Lively is the master at cramming meat links in his mouth. I mean there is no beating this guy, he's a regular wiener gobbler.

Lively's face turns red as Defoe clowns on him.

Max Carter: Either way, this is your first challenge, and when your done the two of you will have had your share of gobbled wieners.

BDC takes his place behind the table as Michael Lively soon follows. They both have a seat as the metal cover is lifted off their huge plate of hot dogs. The steam begins to rise of the American Classic Ball Park Franks. Lively quickly gets up looking as if he is going to vomit.

Lively: WAIT....can't do it.

BDC smiles as Max Carter looks concerned.

Max Carter: Lively, your bitching out really ruins the segment, meaning that instead of this waste of time nine sense I could have easily booked a match or even better yet a senseless plug of some sort.

Lively: I'm not bitching out, it's just....just that...are these Kosher franks?

Max Carter throws a pile of papers down on the ground in a fit of rage.

Max Carter: Kosher! Kosher...Lively, why would you need Kosher? For God sakes man, you're not even Jewish...enough B.S., sit down so we can do this challenge!

Carter points toward Lively who slumps back down into his chair. A couple of road crew member take a spot next to each challenger to count the dogs as they go down.

Max Carter: You will have one minute, a huge glass of water if needed, and the man who can munch down more meat is the winner.

BDC shakes his head in shame for even being involved in this. Lively readies himself for action by opening and closing his mouth a few times. Carter looks down at his stop watch and blows a whistle. Both men begin chowing down on hot dogs. Defoe taking a slow approach by taking bites and swallowing them down. Lively begins tearing through the fucking things like a menace. Every few bites he looks over toward BDC to see how he is doing, and then franticly gets back to chewing on wieners. Feeling extreme pressure Lively tries to quickly deep throat two hot dogs at once. The man leans back jams the franks into his mouth trying to open his throat. BDC looks toward his opponent in shock, and just keeps eating at the same pace. Lively quickly gurgles, and then lets out a small cough. His eyes begin to water, and he starts to panic. The man clutches his throat as he is choking on the two hot dogs he tried to porn star down his gullet. He begins hacking, and making little sounds of gasping.

Max Carter: TIME...now lets tally the damage.

The two members of the road crew tally their count, and hand over their sheets. Carter looks at it briefly.

Max Carter: Wow, BDC you were right. Lively is quite the meat muncher. You ate nine hot dogs while Lively barely inched you out with ten. So it looks like your winner of the first challenge is....

Lively suddenly coughs real loudly and spits out two hot dogs right on the table. He falls down on the ground gasping for air desperately.

Max Carter: Well, well what do we have here two unfinished hot dogs...that would drop Lively down to eight finished dogs, and make the winner of the first challenge CHRIS BDC DEFOE!!!!

BDC: That’s right bitch!!!

BDC stands up gloating in the face of Lively who seems to have had a near death experience.

BDC: You can't mess with my hot dog skills!!!

BDC then flips the table over in excitement.

BDC: One more Lively, and this is over!!!

Lively just looks up feeling lucky to be alive as BDC walks off.

Max Carter: Be back after commercial BDC for the second challenge.

Carter looks down at Lively disgusted.

Max Carter: That was gross, where did you even learn to try two at once...Ewwwh!

Carter then shivers with the creeps as he walks off leaving Lively sitting there breathing deeply with watery eyes from his moments with out oxygen.

Commercial

[President Jeff]

Overdrive finishes up with another set of commercials and then comes screaming back in your face. Max Carter once again is standing in the back of the arena with both BDC and Lively.

Max Carter: Glad you guys made it back on time. This is the best of three series. The first series of Hot Dog Eating went to BDC. The man was very modest in his abilities, but as it turns out this guy loves food shaped like penis, and beat the stiff competition of Michael Lively by slurping down nine tasty wieners.

BDC grunts in anger toward Carters comments.

Max Carter: Now this is the second series, and if BDC pulls this one out we no longer need go on he will be declared the winner, and no longer will I have to stomach you two flirting with each other on my show.

Lively crosses his arms as Carter continues to spew insults.

Max Carter: For this event, we have enlisted the help of...The Price Is Right!

Michael Lively's eyes get huge with anticipation and joy.

Lively: Nice, is Drew Carey here? Oh Man I hope Drew Carey is....






***SMACK***







Lively catches a stiff slap in the back of the head and turns around quickly only to be confronted by Bob Barker.

Max Carter: Drew Carey, what kind of jabronie production do you think we are running here Lively? The APW doesn't get jobbers, we get main event players, original move makers, superstars like BOB BARKER...come on down!!!

Barker: Easy Max, now if you will step aside I have a game to host.

Max Carter moves off camera as Bob Barker pulls out his slender white microphone.

Barker: Go easy BDC, I saw how you handled those hot dogs...you stay away from my microphone! Now gentlemen the game for your next challenge is called SPIN THAT WHEEL!!

Lively begins jumping up and down with excitement as two bikini wearing spokes models bring out a large cabinet with the Big Wheel on it. The ring crew sets up a red carpet as Bob turns to the contestants to explain the rules.

Barker: Alright fellas, you each get two spins the closest to a dollar wins the series. BDC since you won the first challenge we will let you spin first.

The big man steps up to the wheel rubbing his hands together. He looks back at Lively with an evil smirks flips him the bird and spins the wheel.

Bup, bup, bup, bup, bup-buuup,buup...

Barker: Ahhh...it looks like you have sixty cents...do you want to spin again, or stick with that.

BDC leans into the microphone and says "I'll spin again Bob"

The big man reaches high on the wheel, and gives it a powerful spin. The numbers fly by as the wheel spins. It begins to slow down.


Bup, bup, buuup, buuup...

Barker: Another fifteen cents, giving you a total of seventy five cents. Good number BDC, stand over there and we will see what Michael Lively spins. Will the best of three series end here or will we head into a tie breaker...Michael give her a spin, and make sure it goes all the way around, we know how limp wristed you can be at times.

Lively with a huge grin on his face leaps into the air latching on to the wheel as high as he can, shimmy's his legs as he brings the wheel into a full spin.


Bup,bup,bup,bup,bup,buuup,buuuup,buuuuup....

Barker: Wow....looks like seventy five cents. You have a choice here Michael spin again and possibly go over, or you could demand a spin off.

Lively thinks for a minute placing his hand on his chin. With a devilsih grin the man strikes the I am JESUS pose and yells out Spin off.

Barker: What in the blue hell are you doing? Who poses like that when they talk, get out of the way idiot so the big man can spin again.

BDC shakes his head as this charade has to continue.


Chris Defoe steps up to the wheel once more and gives it a mighty heave ho and sends it into motion. The wheel begins to slow down, and his eyes glare at the numbers as the arrow flicks past them.

Barker: Could it be, yes....ninety five cents...BDC spun a huge number, making it nearly impossible for Lively to win.

BDC then steps aside as Lively walks up to the wheel. He gives it a glance over and then once again leaps into the air using his body weight to get the thing moving rapidly. It starts spinning and then begins to slow down. Lively notices the thing not having much juice left on it, and jumps into JESUS action to save his hide.

Barker: It looks like maybe a nickel...oooh Lively this could be bad...

Lively: Ohh snap, the spokes model’s breast popped out of her bikini.

Both Bob and BDC turn looking toward the spokes models. Lively quickly stops the wheel at a dollar, and jumps in the air for joy.

BDC: Her pancakes weren't loose...

Lively: She must have popped it back in real fast, you have to be quicker then that if you want to perve on some nipple old man.

Barker: Awhhh...I'll be seeing those things later on at the hotel anyways...Lively, WOW, you pulled out one hell of a miracle, you are still in this best of three series with this fantastic win here.

Bob quickly turns toward the camera.

Barker: stay tuned for the last series, remember to spay and neuter you pets, I'm Bob Barker see you next time....

Bob then tosses the slender microphone down, puts his arms around the bikini clad spokes models and walks away.

Barker: Now which one of you ladies is going to speak into MY microphone and who's giving Uncle Bob the colon exam....

The ladies laugh as we go back to another commercial

[President Jeff]

Fresh from a commercial Overdrive takes you to the back parking lot of the arena. Max Carter once again is standing there with Michael Lively and Chris BDC Defoe.

Carter: Alright folks, just to review...the first challenge a Hot Dog eating contest was won by BDC, the next challenge a Price is Right Wheel Spin Off was barely pulled put by Michael Lively...couldn't have cut it any closer unless he rigged it himself.

Lively gulps in nervousness, and then smiles.

Carter: Now that brings us to the third and final challenge in my best of three series. To tell you the truth I honestly thought we wouldn't have to make it to this, but here we are. Since I'm being honest, I must also say this whole thing has been really ridiculous, and I'm glad you two look like idiots. So with that being said, let me introduce to you the host of the last challenge...you may remember him from Nickelodeon, some people see him now on the food network, the man who made the game so popular...the host of Double Dare....MARK SUMMERS!!!

Mark Summers walks out into the parking lot with a microphone. The camera follows him as we come upon the obstacle course. Mark Summers walks along the course explaining the different stations the contestants will have to rage through grabbing flags along the way to the finish line. He then turns to the camera in his cheesy game show hosting voice and says "Are you ready to Double Dare"

Summers: Lively since you won the last event, you will be starting us off. The one of you with the fastest time through this sick and disgusting course will be declared the winner of this final challenge, break the tie, and get your way...yuck-yuck!

Livley then puts on his helmet and straps on his goggles. The man wearing a Double Dare t-shirt lunges down as if ready to jump into action and does just that as the whistle blows.

Summers: Alright he's off folks...first obstacle is the slime dive...ooohh and there he goes face first into the slime slithering under a limbo pole searching for the first flag and he's got it...

Lively jumps out of the wadding pool of slime. He blows out the breath he was holding as slime shoots from his lips. The man tries to run to the next event slips sideways from the slime covering his shoes and biffs if hard on the concrete.

Summers: Oooh, that looked bad...

The man scrambles to his feet, and makes it to the ladder climb, rope swing over whip cream filled pool.

Summers: Here he goes up the ladder, grabs the rope and swings across...ooooh he missed the flag, ouch and the vat of whip cream....

Lively flew right past the bucket smacking back first on the pavement. The man arches his back in pain, gets up leaps into the air grabbing the flag landing into the pile of whipped cream. He explodes from the mess clearing his goggles to find the next event.

Summers: Here he goes folks into the car wash...getting pelted with water...foamy soap...and most of all plastered with spinning brushes...can he find the flag...he's got it it...out the exit and Lively is on to the next part of the course...the breakfast waffle!

Lively baseball slides into the giant plate with a foam waffle on it. Whip cream and syrup splatter through the parking lot as Lively flips over the waffle trying to find the hidden flag.

Summers: Look inside it...it could be hidden in one of the pockets of syrup.

Sure enough Lively finds the flag slimmed over with syrup and stuffs it into his pants with the other flags. The man sprints to the next part of the course. Lively climbs a rope ladder up snagging a boogie board that is hung up above. The man then tries to walks the tight rope over a pool of slime.

Summers: Lively having good balance...wait...there he goes face first into the slime...wow this guy is messy. You talk about being committed, he isn't affraid to get dirty trying to make the best time here today.

Livley scrambles out of the slime with the boogie board still in hand, scurries up another ladder, jumps on the board and slides down the chocolate covered sundae slide.

Summers: Lively barrels into the makeshift ice cream sundae, getting lost in a sea of whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and foam. The man powers out of the sundae and slides into the final part of the course.

Summers: The Nose Picker...an all time favorite on Double Dare, Lively must pick the flag out of our large nose filled with nasty goop, and sticky globs.

Lively quickly ducks down and leaps right into the nostril. A few seconds pass and he comes out empty handed, and leaps into the other nostril. After just a brief second Lively punches a fist out of the side of the nose showing the flag causing the clock to stop. Mark Summers runs over to catch a word with Lively and let him now his time. Michael slinks out of the fake nose covered in shit from the entire course looking absolutely ridiculous.

Summers: Lively you made in a sweet time of one minute fifty seven seconds, very impressive. That time will be a tough one for BDC to beat.

Lively stands up chopping his crotch toward BDC as if telling him to beat that as various things fly from his hands and legs. BDC shakes his head toward Lively. Mark Summers and Lively head back over toward Defoe.

Summers: Alright BDC, get your goggles on...it's time for you to attack the course!

Chris Defoe grabs the goggles, looks at them and tosses them to the ground.

BDC: I forfeit, I'm not doing it...that asshole looked like a total tool. I'd rather whip his ass at the PPV then jam my body into a fake nose...

Mark Summers looks at Lively, grabs a confetti gun and shoots it in the air over the JESUS's head. Lively looks embarrassed that BDC just worked him over on that challenge making him pretty much job in front of thousands. With confetti sticking to Lively like feathers on tar, BDC walks over in his face.

BDC: You see kid that’s how to work, you just got jabroned out on live TV, and for what...I'll tell you what. One Night In Hell an ass whipping is coming your way this Sunday. Get ready cause Big Daddy Cool is going to give you what you have been waiting for...

BDC turns to walk away, when Max Carter calls for him to hold up.

Carter: BDC wait a second, I wanted to give you your prize for competing in my best of three series...no one walks out empty handed.

Carter hands over a gift bag to BDC. The legend reaches in pulling out a wad of tissue paper. He rips off the paper to reveal a dog collar.

Carter: You two will be wearing those this weekend, in a DOG COLLAR MATCH!!

BDC shakes his head with a nasty smirk as if he could care less and tosses the collar toward Lively. Michael catches the thing, looks at it, then looks over toward Mark Summers.

Summers: Bro...you really are gross...maybe uhh..

Lively: Yeah, I'll go wash up!

The cameras then switch back to its final commercial

[President Jeff]

Chase: Its main event time folks and this is going to be a good one.

Nicky Paige: The following contest is the Eight Man Tag Match, and is your APW Overdrive main event!

The fans cheer as “Basic Thuganomics (Remix)” by Jesse Nuñez, John Cena, and Trademarc, blares over the speakers. Jesse Nuñez enters, though he's decidedly less fired up than normal. He has a somber look on his face, and half heartedly slaps fives with the fans as he makes his way down the ramp.

Paige: Making his way to the ring first, weighing in at 240 pounds, from Phoenix, Arizona, “The Prodigy” Jesse Nuñez!

Harvey: One can't blame Jesse Nuñez for being a little less than festive tonight, not after how Victor Hades abducted his wife last week!

Chase: This is too big of a match for Jesse to not have complete focus on it! He's going to hurt his team big time!

As Jesse reaches the ring, Trick Daddy's “Let's Go!” hits the speakers, causing the fans to erupt in cheers as Slade Craven and Shadow enter the arena! The AKA points out to the crowd, with Slade waving his arms upwards to pump up the crowd! The AKA then makes their way down the ramp, making sure to slap fives with the fans!

Paige: And his partners, weighing in at a combined weight of 530 pounds, from Dallas, Texas, Slade Craven and Shadow, The A$$ Kickers Anonymous!

Chase: I don't see what these two are so pumped up about! They're going to lose tonight, and they're sure as heck going to lose at One Night In Hell to the Axis!

Harvey: That's your opinion! I think that the AKA are the heavy favorites in that matchup!

Slade and Shadow reach the ring. Slade slides in beneath the ropes as Shadow hops up onto the apron and steps over the ropes. They then go to the center of the ring, and appeal to the crowd, trying to pump Jesse up in the process. As their music fades, The whole arena goes black as "Immortal" by Adema hits, the fans are chattering and looking around confused as a single spotlight hits the entrance ramp. Pence stands there with a long black trench coat without sleeves, he makes his way down to the ring slapping hands, the spotlight following him until he enters into the ring.

Paige: And their partner, weighing in at 250 pounds, from Hershey, Pennsylvania, “The Reaper” Pence Weatherlight!

Harvey: Here comes the man who is challenging Level-One for the APW Heavyweight Championship inside Hell in a Cell! That promises to be one of the biggest main events we've had on pay per view in some time!

Chase: It will be barbaric, that's for sure!

Pence stands in the middle of the ring as he raises both of his arms up, sparks fall from the rafters, and the lights come on. Pence gets up on one of the turnbuckles and looks around the arena, the fans with mixed chants some saying "Mr. Main Event", others chanting "Reaper". Pence takes off his trench coat and throws it into the crowd as he goes to the other side and looks out across the vast masses before standing up on the other turn buckle. He jumps down off the turnbuckle slaps fives with his partners before turning around to look towards the stage.

Harvey: What an assembly of talent in that ring right now!

Chase: If you think these guys are good, just wait until you see their opponents!

Harvey: That's debatable!

The silence of the crowd stirs around the atmosphere of the arena as it suddenly becomes disturbed by the sound of a horrific and deafening scream, a white mist begins to seep through from the ramp way, its swirling life source, only to cast itself lovingly into the air and towards the stage. The crowd looks on worried, each and every face being filled with simple fear as their hearts beat rhythmically with the bright-sensitive flickering lights of death… a sickening blue light only to swoon over the crowd. Just as any search light does when picking sight of its criminal… another one only to follow it in its quest. 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, Victor Hades moves casually down the ramp way with the bright white light behind him.

Paige: And their opponents, first, weighing in at 260 pounds, from Los Angeles, California, Victor Hades!

Chase: Here comes the fasting rising star in APW today, none other than the Devil's Comrade, Victor Hades!

Harvey: Hades may be on the upswing, but I'm most certainly not a fan of his, especially considering what he did to Nuñez's wife last week!

Hades stops at the foot of the ramp, and Muse's “Uprising” begins to play as the lights flash alternating orange and blue! Blue laser lights shoot from the stage as orange spotlights twirl about the arena and strobe lights contribute to the visual overload! As the singing starts, Biggs and Chris Cyrus emerge from the back with their respective titles clasped around their waists and The Beast in tow. The Axis arrogantly poses on stage before heading down the ramp.

Paige: And his partners, accompanied by The Beast, first, weighing in at 240 pounds, from Las Vegas, Nevada, he is the APW Xtreme Champion, Chris Cyrus! And weighing in at 217 pounds, from Seattle, Washington, he is the APW Overdrive Champion, Biggs! They are The Axis of Awesome!

Chase: Woohoo! It's my favorite team in all of APW! The Axis is quite simply Awesome, if you don't mind me saying!

Harvey: Actually, I do! These two are two of the biggest cowards I've ever seen!

The fans boo the Axis of Awesome as they strut down the ramp. Biggs gives Hades a pat on the back, and they wait at the foot of the ramp as well. Shadow and Biggs trade insults as Cyrus points and laughs at Slade. Hades is glaring unnervingly at Jesse Nuñez while Pence tries to comfort his partner. “Put You On Game,” by Lupe Fiasco, blasts the PA system, as Level-One steps up on-top of the ramp. Red smoke swirls beneath him, and a string of red and blue pyro shoots up into the air he raises his APW Heavyweight Title Belt high in the air.

Paige: And their partner, weighing in at 273 pounds, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he is the reigning APW Heavyweight Champion of the World, Level-One!

Chase: And here comes the world champion! Can you believe how talented Level-One's team is here tonight? Not only does he have the fastest rising star in APW today, but he has the holders of the other two championships here in APW! What a team!

Level-One puts his title on his shoulder and slowly begins to walk down the ramp, being booed loudly by the crowd. Level-One stops before eying down a fan, mocking the fan in the process. As he reaches his team at the foot of the ramp, all four men nod towards each other, and enter the ring, with Biggs and Cyrus sliding in, Hades slingshotting himself over the ropes, and Level-One stepping in between the ropes. Pence and his team are standing on the arena floor as all four men of the opposing team mount each turnbuckle, each one of them striking their signature pose. All the competitors remove their entrance gear, and Level-One, Biggs, and Cyrus hand their belts to the ref. Pence's team re-enters the ring as Level-One's team makes their way to their corner. Biggs and Victor Hades are playing Rock, Paper, Scissor, with Biggs getting the victory thanks to rock. When Shadow sees that Biggs is starting the match, he motions that he wants to start as well. His team obliges, and once all the other men are out of the ring, the ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

Level-One, Victor Hades, Chris Cyrus, and Biggs vs. Pence Weatherlight, Jesse Nuñez, Slade Craven, and Shadow

As Shadow and Biggs tie up in the middle of the ring, the smaller competitor quickly stomps Shadow's foot, breaking the lock, and quickly rushes towards his corner, tagging in Level-One, drawing loud boos from the crowd, both for Biggs' cowardice, and the fact that Level-One is now in the ring. Shadow looks back to Pence, and tags him in, drawing loud cheers from the crowd!

Harvey: Holy smokes! We get a pay per view preview right here!

Level-One scowls, and tags in Victor Hades without a second thought, drawing more boos from the fans. Pence responds by giving Jesse Nuñez the tag, and the frustration and rage built up in Jesse is evident as he steps into the ring. Victor Hades laughs sadistically as he taunts Nuñez from across the ring! Suddenly, Nuñez explodes towards Hades, taking him down with a Shoulder Tackle! Nuñez then mounts Hades, and unloads on him, giving him right after right after right to the face! Hades uses The Prodigy's emotions against him, and manages to roll Nuñez over, getting the advantage. Hades gives Jesse some punches of his own before reaching out to tag Chris Cyrus into the match! The Devil's Comrade chokes Nuñez till the count of 3, and then exits the ring, allowing Cyrus to stomp The Prodigy right in the chest multiple times before pulling him up to a vertical base! From there, Cyrus steps to the side of Nuñez and gives him the Side Russian Leg Sweep! Cyrus chokes Nuñez a bit himself before pulling Jesse up to his feet and dragging him to his team's corner. Cyrus tags in Biggs, who then steps into the ring and tags Level-One! Biggs and Cyrus lift Nuñez into a Double Team Vertical Suplex as Level-One mounts the top rope and hits with a Flying Cross Body!

Harvey: Just when you forget how athletic Level-One is, he goes out and pulls off something like that! I may not like our champion, but I can't help but respect his ability in the ring!

Chase: So far we've seen some great teamwork from the Championship team, and I can't help but think that that trend will continue throughout the match! They're isolating Nuñez early, and if they can keep him in there, this will be a short match for sure!

Harvey: I hate to admit it, but it's tag team wrestling 101. Isolate one of your opponents in the corner, and make quick tags, not allowing them any chance to recover!

Level-One grabs a hold of Jesse's legs, locking in a Boston Crab! Pain is wrenched in the face of Nuñez as he desperately goes for the ropes! Jesse comes within a finger tip of the ropes before Level-One begins to drag him away, but the champ lets go as he sees Pence and The AKA rush into the ring to try and break up the hold! The Axis and Hades make their way into the ring quickly as well, and a huge brawl erupts between both teams!

Harvey: The ref's going to have to be quick to restore order in this one! We have to take our final commercial break!

***

As APW Overdrive comes back from commercial, Shadow and Level-One are in the middle of the ring. Shadow has Level-One in a big Bear Hug!

Harvey: Welcome back to APW Overdrive! During the break, the ref was able to restore order, giving Nuñez the chance to tag in Shadow!

Chase: Right now, Shadow's in there with Level-One!

As Shadow tries to tighten his grip on the Bear Hug, Level-One boxes the ears, forcing Shadow to let go! The APW Champions tries to whip Shadow towards the ropes, but Shadow reverses and whips Level-One instead! On the rebound, Shadow grabs Level-One up and gives him a Release Belly-to-Belly Suplex! The positioning was as such that Level-One is able to roll to his corner and tag in Chris Cyrus before Shadow has a chance to respond! Cyrus rushes in towards Shadow, and jumps on his back, locking in a Sleeper Hold! Shadow turns around with Cyrus still on his back, and thrust himself towards the corner! Cyrus has the wherewithal to let go before impact, sending Shadow crashing back first into the turnbuckle! Cyrus grabs a hold of the top rope and gives Shadow a few kicks to the midsection before climbing up to the second rope and grabbing a hold of Shadow's head! Before Cyrus can pull a move off, Shadow shoves Cyrus off, crashing back first into the mat! As Cyrus is holding his gut on the mat, Shadow pulls him up by the head and lifts him up for a Military Press Slam! Slade is in the corner with his hand outstretched, practically begging to enter the match! Shadow drags Cyrus by the leg to his teams corner, and obliges Slade, tagging in his partner! Slade scurries up to the top rope, and leaps off, hitting Cyrus with a Corkscrew Moonsault! Slade goes for the first cover of the match,

Cyrus kicks out! Slade keeps his focus, gets to his feet, pulling Cyrus up and giving him a Knee to the Gut before getting a running start and taking him down with the Craven Effect Reverse Swinging Neckbreaker! As Cyrus is down, Slade pops right back up, running towards the ropes! As he reaches the ropes, The Beast reaches up and trips him, causing the crowd to boo loudly! The ref was checking on Cyrus and didn't see the infraction, but seeing Slade on the mat, he puts one and one together, and calls for The Beast to be ejected from the ringside area! The fans cheer loudly as Biggs walks over to the middle of the apron and starts to argue with the ref! The Beast angrily makes his way up the ramp as Slade gets to his feet and Dropkicks Biggs off the apron before turning his attention back to Cyrus! As he turns around, Cyrus is there to give Slade a swift Kick to the gut, and hoists Slade up in position for a Powerbomb! As he's coming down, Slade counters, taking Cyrus down with a Hurricarana! Slade then uses his momentum as he gets up to run towards the opposite ropes, and on the way back, he nails Cyrus with Rolling Thunder! Slade goes for another cover, but it's quickly broken up by Level-One! The ref admonishes the APW Champion as he directs him back to his corner, allowing Biggs to quickly sneak into the ring and Clip Slade at the Knees from behind! Biggs quickly rolls out of the ring before the ref sees him, and the move allows Cyrus to get to his corner to tag in Victor Hades! Slade just barely gets to his corner to tag in Pence as Hades comes running towards him! Before Pence has a chance to get into the ring, Hades tackles him in the corner! Unfortunately for Hades, it's Pence's corner, and Nuñez reaches in to tag himself into the match! The Prodigy peels Hades off of Pence, and hits him with a few well placed punches to the back of the head, dazing Hades a bit and knocking him face first into the turnbuckle! Nuñez tags in Slade, who climbs to the top rope! Nuñez hoists Hades onto his shoulders in a DVD position, while Shadow slaps Slade's arm to make himself the legal man! Slade leaps off the turnbuckle, nailing Hades' across the back of the neck with a Leg Drop, while Nuñez maintains the hold, and Shadow comes in to nail Hades in the head with a Big Boot, causing him to fall limply off of the shoulders of The Prodigy! Jesse steps out onto the apron, and quickly tags himself back in as Shadow reaches down to pull Hades back up. Shadow looks at Nuñez with a puzzled look, but follows the refs instructions to leave the ring. Level-One, Cyrus, and Biggs all have foul looks on their faces as Nuñez mounts Hades, and delivers a rapid volley of punches to the face of Victor Hades! Nuñez is not relenting, beating Hades to the point where the Devil's Comrade is busted wide open! Hades manages to get his foot on the bottom rope, and the ref starts to count to five! Jesse shows no signs that he's going to relent, so Shadow and Slade come into the ring and drag him off of Hades before the five count is reached!

Chase: What unbridled emotion we've seen from Jesse Nuñez right now! He's lucky the AKA came in to break it up, otherwise, his team would have been disqualified!

Harvey: Somehow, I think this match isn't the biggest thing on Nuñez's mind right now!

Pence slaps Nuñez on the back, tagging himself in. This gives Hades the chance to make his way to his corner, tagging in Biggs!

Chase: I've wanted to see these two go at it for some time!

Biggs and Pence tie up in the middle of the ring! Pence uses his strength advantage, and shoves Biggs back into a neutral corner, and begins to give Biggs a volley of Knife Edge Chops that echo throughout the arena! Biggs' chest is turning an interesting shade of red as Pence whips Biggs towards the opposite corner, and nails Biggs with a Running Clothesline! As Biggs stumbles out of the corner, Pence takes him down with a Snapmare, and gives Biggs a sharp Kick to the spine! Biggs grits his teeth as Pence pulls him back up and whips him towards the ropes! Biggs is able to leap up onto the second rope and before Pence can respond, Biggs springs off into a back flip, grabbing Pence's head for a Springboard Flipping Reverse DDT! Biggs' team is fired up on the apron as Biggs stays on the attack, stomping Pence's sternum again and again before turning Pence onto his belly and locking in the Camel Clutch! As Biggs keeps his left arm wrapped beneath Pence's chin, he uses his right arm to deliver a series of Crossface Forearms! After the Crossfaces, Biggs releases the hold and shoves Pence's face into the mat! Biggs gets to his feet and takes a few steps back, measuring up Pence! As Pence gets to all fours, Biggs quickly comes in and stomps near Pence's face, dragging the laces of his boot across Pence's face!

Harvey: What a nasty move by Biggs there!

As Pence holds his face in pain, Biggs pulls him up and jumps up to take him down with a Leg Lariat! Biggs goes for a cover

Biggs kicks out! The two men are slow to get to their feet, but Pence gets up first, and grabs Biggs behind in a Full Nelson! He shakes Biggs around like a rag doll a bit before releasing the hold, flinging Biggs to the mat! Shadow is calling for the tag, so Pence pulls Biggs back up and locks him in a Front Facelock, dragging Biggs towards the opposing corner! Pence tags in Shadow, and the two men deliver a Double Team Suplex to Biggs, taking it to the APW Overdrive Champion! As Biggs is on the mat, Shadow yanks him up by the hair, and gives him a few punches to the face before whipping him towards the corner! Again, Biggs thinks fast on his feet, and jumps up onto the second rope, springing off and twisting around to go for a Crossbody Block! Shadow catches Biggs, and gives him a Fallaway Slam that launches Biggs across the ring! Unfortunately for Shadow, it's towards Biggs' team corner, and as Biggs lands, he rolls over to tag in Level-One! Level-One's reemergence into the match draws loud boos from the crowd, but the two big men tie up in the middle of the ring! At first, Level-One gets the advantage, pushing Shadow back a few steps! Then Shadow responds, pushing Level-One himself! After a brief struggle, Level-One takes the cheap way out, kicking Shadow in the shin and using the opportunity to hoist the big man up for a Stalling Suplex! The crowd watches in awe as Level-One holds Shadow suspended for what seems like an eternity, letting the blood rush to his opponent's head! The APW Champion than violently slams Shadow to the mat, shaking the entire ring! As Shadow clutches his back in pain on the mat, Level-One gives him a brutal Soccer Kick to the ribs, and pulls him up to a vertical base, yanking him in by the arm for a Flipping Clothesline that turns Shadow inside out! Level-One then gives Shadow a couple of stomps before dragging him by the leg towards his team's corner! Level-One tags in Victor Hades as he hoists Shadow up into an electric chair position on top of his shoulders, and Biggs climbs up the turnbuckle, jumping off to take Shadow off of Level-One's shoulders with a Flying Headscissors! As Biggs and Shadow fly through the air, Hades mounts the turnbuckle himself, and leaps off to nail Shadow with From Heaven to Hell, his Moonsault Kneedrop, shortly after Shadow lands from the Headscissors! Victor goes for the cover

Nuñez is there to break up the count! Nuñez tries to get a hold of Victor, but Level-One rushes into the ring to take Nuñez out with a Big Boot! The ref warns Level-One as the APW Champ makes his way back to the apron, while Hades stays focused on Shadow, stomping him viciously! Hades' dreads shake wildly with each stomp, and the sadistic superstar then tries to lock on the Eastern Stretch! Shadow manages to shove Hades off before he can lock on the hold, and gets to his feet. Hades goes to punch Shadow, but the big man blocks, and answers with a punch of his own! Shadow follows up with more blows to the face, staggering Hades. He then whips Hades into the ropes, and runs to the opposite ropes himself! On the rebound, both men take each other out with Running Clotheslines! The fans are cheering, trying to will Shadow on towards his corner! Both men begin to crawl to their respective corners, with Hades tagging in Cyrus and Shadow giving Slade the tag! The fans cheers grow louder as the two men meet in the middle of the ring and begin to trade punches back and forth! After a bit of brawling, Cyrus blocks a punch from Slade, and gets a Headlock on his opponent! Cyrus and his teammates yell “Headlock!” in unison, gaining loud boos from the crowd!

Chase: The master of the Headlock is showing why he has that moniker here tonight!

Harvey: One ought not be proud of being the master of that move!

Cyrus has the crowd exactly where he wants them, drawing louder and louder boos from the crowd with each wrench of the head! Cyrus then gets down to one knee, dragging Slade down with him! Shortly thereafter, Cyrus has his belly on the mat, while Slade is on his side! The fans are pissed as Cyrus laughs it up and Slade tries to break free of the hold. A “SLADE! SLADE! SLADE!” chant gets going, inspiring Slade to push his way up to all fours, and then to one knee, and finally to both feet!

As Hades and Biggs are focused on Shadow, it gives Nuñez a chance to recover, and he attacks Hades from behind, and tosses him through the ropes to the outside! With Shadow still on the mat, Biggs turns his attention to Nuñez and hits with the Starmaker! As Biggs arrogantly poses after his finisher, Shadow is to his feet, and he grabs Biggs from behind, turns him around, and lifts him up for The Eclipse! Shadow nails the move, and Biggs feebly rolls out of the ring! Shadow then turns to help Pence with Level-One, but is stopped in his tracks as Hades slides back into the ring and nails him with a Low Blow from behind! The ref doesn't see the infraction, as he's tied up with Pence and Level-One, trying to get Pence to leave the ring! Hades then tosses Shadow unceremoniously through the ropes and to the floor! The ref manages to break Level-One and Pence apart, and admonishes Pence to return to his corner.
