Overdrive - Aniheim, California (11/25/09)

[President Jeff]

Overdrive opens up with the letters EWC on the screen. The camera zooms out and you see that the letters are on a Production Truck. The camera zooms back some more and you see “President” Hurricane Jeff standing in front of the truck.

Jeff: Here I am, Standing in front of the EWC Production truck in Memphis Tennessee. The place where last week, EWC’s Monday Night Brawl was set to make it big triumphant return. I was going to come here and confront Mac right to his face and make him accept my challenge for Christmas Chaos. So this past Monday, I come here and I find out that the show has been rescheduled for next week. Seriously? All this hype, all this build up for a show that got Rescheduled. And Why? Come to find out, Half the wrestlers didn’t show up. Can’t say I don’t blame them. See, those guys we’re smart. They knew that EWC was overrated. They didn’t believe all the hype for EWC or Mac.

Ever heard of the saying, “The Show must go on.” I’ve had champions leave me days before big matches, but the show went on. I had A chunk of my roster leave me days before a Pay Per View, but the show went on. But you know what, with the show rescheduled next week, I decided that I would spend some time here in Memphis. I rented myself a hotel suite right own the road from the arena and I will make sure that this Monday, I will be on Brawl and I will confront Mac. That’s if a show even happens.

Mac, I know your watching, like I said before, you can run, but you can’t hide Mac. This Monday, I will be here. I will be at your show and I will make you accept my challenge. Mac, be a man for once. Fight me Mac. Fight Me!

The scene fades out into the Overdrive intro video

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! And happy Thanks Giving

Chase: I’m Johnny Chase along side Darren Harvey and tonight is full of Tag Team Action.

Harvey: Four match tonight, with a double main event. First, we will see the AKA take on the O’Connor Brothers

Chase: And in out main event, Level One and Victor Hades team up to take on the unlikely duo of Pence Weatherlight and Michael Lively

Harvey: Can Pence and Lively work together tonight and put away Hades and Level One?

Chase: Any thing is possible.

Harvey: Lets not waist anymore time and go to out opening match.

Joe Martinez and John Green vs. Vic Diaz and Scott Rock


The match begins with Joe Martinez and Scott Rock in the ring, both men quickly lock up, and try to overpower each other, but that gets them no where. The slightly larger Joe quickly locks in a headlock and stands up on his toes to gain leverage on Scott Rock, but Scott quickly counters it into a headlock of his own. Scott puts a lot of pressure on the hold and forces Joe down to one knee, but Joe with a burst of strength stands up again, and then breaks the headlock. Joe quickly uses a clothesline to send Scott to the mat below, Joe goes for the pin quickly.


1....


Kickout!


Scott quickly rolls up and rub his neck as Joe and him stare each other down on opposite sides of the ring from where they had originally started. Joe rushes at Scott who side steps the on-coming Joe and then when Joe turns around gives him a nice standing drop kick, sending him to the mat with a loud thud. Scott looks to the ropes near Joe and jumps up on them for a spring board drop kick, but that misses the mark as Joe rolls out of the way and Scott crashes and burns holding his leg. Joe looks at him, a wide smile playing on his face, as he quickly goes in for a six shooter on the fallen Scott Rock. Scott calls out in pain as his leg is now in an awkward angle, but unbeknownst to Joe, Scott makes a tag to his partner Vic Diaz, who gets into the ring and running bull dogs Joe to the mat. Vic goes for a quick pin.


1....


Kickout!


Joe kicks out and Vic begins to stomp on the fallen Joe Martinez until finally Joe gets back up to a vertical basis and as Vic goes to punch Joe in the face Joe catches it and then sends one of his own punches at Vic's face. Joe building up momentum continues to punch Vic until finally he has pushed Vic into his corner where he makes the tag. John comes in and for a bit both of them whale on Vic with kicks and punches until finally the ref breaks it up. John pulls Vic out of the corner and lifts him up for a suplex and bridges while doing it.

2.....


Powerout!


Vic manages to power out at the last second, causing John to begin to yell at the referee, but that costs him as Vic drags himself over to Scott and makes a quick tag. John doesn't know what is happening as Scott comes out of the ropes and then jumps on them performing a sort of spring board round house kick to the back of John Green's head, John yelps in pain, and falls over as Scott walks over to him. Scott goes over to him and locks in a chinlock, bringing the upper back against his knee while standing on it, John screams in pain, and Scott Rock demands that John tap out and give in to the submission. Joe clearly having seen enough gets himself involved and gets into the ring, he drags Scott off of John, and this draws the cheers of the fans as both men stand staring at each other face to face. The ref breaks it up and pushes Joe back to the outside of the ring as Scott goes back to pick John up who quickly eye pokes Scott and jumps to tag Joe in. Now both men being legal they stare at each other with intensity as they lock up once again. This time Scott gains the advantage and pushes him into the ropes and then irish whips him to the ropes on the other side, but on the way back Joe slides in with a shoulder block directed at the bad leg of Scott Rock. Scott falls face first to the mat below and holds his jaw and leg in pain. Joe locks in another six shooter on Scott, but even with the intense pain Scott does not give in and declines all of the chances to tap.

Joe releases the hold, clearly noting that the damage has been done to Scott Rock, who gets up while gritting his teeth, and holds on to the ropes while doing it. Joe waits for this and rushes Scott, but Scott still has some level of speed to him as he rolls out of the way and Joe goes through the ropes and to the outside of the ring, crashing and burning if you will. The ref begins the count.

Joe gets inside the ring and Scott tries to stop him, but Joe rams his shoulder into Scott's chest forcing him to stumble back a bit clutching at his stomach. Joe gets back into the ring and Scott goes on the offensive once again, going for another spring board kick that he had done to John Green earlier in the match, but due to the injury the jump goes wrong and Joe manages to spear him in the mid air, both men crash to the ground exhausted. Scott manages to put his arm on top of Joe.

Shoulder up!


Joe gets his shoulder up as both men roll back up to where they were standing and as both men get ready for round three of their little battle, Joe pulls a fast one and locks in the Chi Splash, and executes it perfectly. The fans go wild as Joe collapses on top of Scott for the pin.

Winner via pinfall....Joe Martinez and John Green!

Joe and John celebrate

Chase: I’m getting word that backstage there’s a huge thanksgiving feast being held by none other than the greatest APW Overdrive Champion ever, Biggs!

Harvey: You know, it’s sickening how much you love Biggs. Still, let’s send it to the back!

In the backstage area, there is are several buffet style tables set up with festive brown table clothes, horns of plenty on each table, leaves, and of course, a Thanksgiving feast! The center table holds three gigantic turkey, one that’s at least 35 pounds, with the other two in the 20 pound range. There’s lots of different vegetables, mashed potatoes with gravy, stuffing, sweet potatoes, and every kind of pie imaginable. Biggs is decked out in a full pilgrim costume, complete with the knee length black pants, white stockings, tall hat, and black jacket. The only historical inaccuracy with his costume is that Biggs is donning his signature shades. Chris Cyrus and The Beast are dressed normally, admiring the Thanksgiving spread.

Chris: You went all out for this bro! I got to say that I’m impressed., although somehow, I don’t think that pilgrims wore shades.

Biggs: Hey, just because I’m going all out for my Thanksgiving celebration, that doesn’t mean I should have to sacrifice my sense of style! I’m sure that if there were shades back then, all the cool pilgrims would have worn them!

Chris: But that would mean there’d have to pilgrims as cool as us, and I don’t see that being even remotely possible!

Biggs: True that! Still, I have so much to be thankful for that I can’t help but give this holiday my all. After all, this holiday is all about remembering what we’re grateful for. I think it’s pretty obvious what I’m most grateful for.

Biggs slaps his APW Overdrive Championship belt clasped around his waist.

Biggs: I am grateful for the fact that I have to opportunity to restore the prestige of this belt by facing not only Shadow at Rival Factions, but also Pence Weatherlight at Christmas Chaos. Sure, those two are big names as far as the fans are concerned, but I couldn’t think of an easier couple of opponents! Let’s face it, Pence got lucky last week when he pinned me, and now that I know it’s just going to be me and him in that ring at the Staples Center on December 20, well, I can’t help but feel really confident that it won’t be happening again!

At this point, Mark Moment walks past the banquet, stops in his tracks, and does a double take at the impressive feast laid out.

Mark Moment: Oh my goodness! A Thanksgiving feast laid out in the backstage area! These always end in huge food fights! I can’t wait!

Biggs: And that is exactly why I’m not letting you, or any other so called good guys into my feast, because I intend to celebrate Thanksgiving, not let it devolve into something you could find in a high school cafeteria!

Mark: But it’s a Thanksgiving celebration on a wrestling show! If somebody doesn’t end up getting covered in gravy, then it’s not complete!

At this point, The Beast gets behind Mark Moment, and dumps a large container of gravy all over him. The fans boo loudly as Mark Moment wipes the gravy from his eyes. He has an upset look on his face.

Biggs: There, you got somebody covered in gravy! Now be on your way!

Mark grumbles to himself as we walks off camera.

Biggs: What a waste. I absolutely love gravy.

Cyrus: Don’t worry, we got more where that came from!

The Beast proceeds to pull out a container identical to the one used to cover Mark Moment.

Biggs: Alright! Let’s get this feast started!

At this point, The Axis get in line at the food tables, grabbing their plates and serving themselves up as the camera switches back to Darren and Johnny in the arena.

Chase: That looks great! It’s just too bad that I have a job to do, otherwise, I’d be all over that turkey!

Harvey: That just sounded wrong!

Chase: Hey, I’m supposed to be the one making off-color comments!

Overdrive goes to commercial

[President Jeff]

A.P.W. Overdrive comes back from commercial with Shadow standing in the ring dressed like a cowboy. He has on big bomber sunglasses, a cheap cowboy, flannel shirt and blue jeans. Its also important to note that Shadow has a head set microphone on tonight rather than holding one in his hand.

Shadow: Hey there folk, you tired of Level One? You tired of having your home-space violated? Well come on down and see him folks, he’s wrestling leading champion exorcist. And dammit, I’m telling you, he’ll do anything to get the job done. He’ll beat him real bad. Whoa! He’s got whoop ass running all through him. And if you act now, you get a new champion with every exorcism, now you can’t beat that. So come now, give him a shot, and bring the little partners too to watch, we got plenty of snakes for them to play with when Level One’s speaking; there’s no problem with that at all. So, say it once, say it twice, third times a charm, and remember, He'll eat any thing you want me to eat, He'll swallow any thing you want me to swallow. Come on down now, He'll (snaps) chew on a dog Wooh!

As Shadow slaps his legs the intro to Slade’s music begins to play as the fans begin to cheer at the top of their lungs.

Harvey: Well that was an interesting introduction.

Chase: That was copyright infringement. Slade’s going to get us sued!

As Craven’s Remix of Adema’s “The Way You Like It” Begins Shadow graciously takes a step to the side. As Slade walks out from backstage someone leaps over the barricade and makes their way to the ring.

Harvey: Oh no!

Chase: Who is that?

In the flickering darkness, the figure slides under the bottom rope and gets up.

Harvey: Victor Hades!

The lights suddenly come back on to Hades’ shock as he is standing in the ring with Shadow looking dead at him, the cowboy hat, headset and glasses are gone. Hades holds the steel chair in his hand as the fans are cheering.

Harvey: He got set up! They we’re ready for this!

Chase: No! It’s an ambush!

Hades shows no signs of fear as he gets ready to reel back with the chair, when he does Shadow delivers a swift kick to the gut and begins to throw his massive right hands. The fans are cheering wildly as Slade slides into the ring while Hades tries to fight back. Shadow takes a step back as Hades shakes his head and Craven taps him on the shoulder. He spins around and Craven delivers a right hand of his own as suddenly Hades is stuck between the two, each punch sends him back to the other member of the A.K.A. until finally Shadow hit a big right hand and Hades bumps to the mat. He starts to get back up quickly as Shadow rips off the flannel shirt and tosses it into the crowd as Slade takes a step back. When Hades gets back to his feet, he turns and Shadow comes across the ring with that size sixteen boot slamming into the face of Victor Hades. Slade has calmly walked over to the other side of the ring and motioned for a microphone. As Hades lays there, flat on his back, Slade raises the mic.

Slade- Anaheim California, Ya’ll want one more?!

His loud, booming voice is drowned by the roar of approval from the fans as Slade looks to his tag partner and shrugs. Craven drops the mic as Shadow pulls Hades back up, grabs him by a leg, gets in close, lifts Hades up as if going for a spinebuster, but instead Shadow swings his arm down and backaround quickly driving Hades back to the mat with a powerful leg lift clothesline! Then Craven leaps off the top rope brining his leg down across the sternum of Hades who lays motionless in the center of the ring, again.

Harvey: Diamond Star Drop! They hit the DsD!

Chase: This is wrong Harvey, completely wrong!

Harvey: Oh and what Hades has done the past two weeks wasn’t?

Slade reaches down and grabs the mic. He walks over to Hades and looks at the guy who doesn’t seem to know which way is up.

Slade- Bet you wont do that again will ya?

He starts to walk away.

Slade- Actually, “The Main Man” knows that probably nothing the A.K.A. does to you will ever sink into the skull of yours so you probably didn’t learn a goddamn thing, and come next week you will be back at Shadow’s throat like a retard bulldog claiming some emo crap that you won’t let this injustice stand and you have to prove how sadistic you are. Well son, if you can hear this, Slade says this, you just got your ass kicked!

The fans cheer wildly. That kind of rant hasn’t been heard from Slade in years. He turns to Shadow.

Slade- Shadow, get this trash out of our ring.

Shadow reaches down, and pulls up a half coherent Hades and grabs him by the back of his head and launches him over the top rope to the outside of the ring to the approval of the fans as Slade begins to pace.

Slade- Now, before we were so rudely interrupted by the only more predictable than a solar cycle. Slade Craven was coming down here to talk to ya’ll about something very important. Level One.

The crowd immediately begins to boo at the sound of his name.

Slade- Level One, you asked a rhetorical question last week on Overdrive, and being “The Main Man,” answering rhetorical question is just another way to piss somebody off. You really don’t care about anything Level One, well anything but yourself, so Slade is going to give you, amongst the many other things you won’t want, an answer. “Why would Slade Craven want to go through what happened over six months ago once again?” Well that’s because it isn’t going to happen again. You see, Slade Craven may be a lot of things: impetuous, innovative, intelligent, a Libra. However, something he is not, is predictable. Level One Christmas Chaos isn’t just a match, its Christmas with Craven! And what is ole Santa Craven going to get you for Christmas, a long drawn out, over sized well earned ass whipping, Texas Style!

Slade leans back as he says this put a large amount of emphasis on the last two words as the fans come alive.

Slade- Honestly Level One, Slade Craven could care less about your goals, your desires, who’ve you’ve beaten in the ring because it doesn’t mean anything to “The Main Man.” All Slade cares about is whether or not you planned on jumping out the window of your little apartment. “The Main Man” was on the edge of his seat!

Craven imitates watching something, his eyes big, he pretends to eat some popcorn.

Slade- He’s gonna do it! He’s gonna do it!

He pretends to throw the popcorn away.

Slade- Aw come on!

He paces around the ring and we see Victor Hades getting back up outside the ring, Slade grab’s Hades chair that he brought into the ring.

Slade- Hey Spanky, take a seat.

Craven tosses it over the top rope casually and the seat comes down on the top of Hades head. He drops to a knee as Slade goes back to what he was saying as Shadow just kind of nods.

Slade- Level One, you are without a doubt the most boring champion “The Main Man” has ever seen, and the only thing more painful than listening to you speak is the realization that Slade has to wait till Christmas Chaos to effectively beat you ass. But no matter sunshine, because Slade isn’t banking on a handout at Christmas Chaos. No he does not expect charity, even though it is the giving season. No, Slade has a friend he wants to introduce you to. That friend is the reason Slade Craven will be walking out the new A.P.W. World Champion. Level One, come Christmas Chaos, you will get to meet the Ghost of Christmas Kick-Ass and you will “Rue the day, you messed with ole Slade!”

He leans back again as the fans begin to cheer and his music hits again starting with the chorus. Slade tosses the mic outside the ring to an attendant as he and Shadow both take a turnbuckle and begin to raise their arms. The fans are loving it as Slade and Shadow bask in the moment while the camera fades to another commercial break.

[President Jeff]

Overdrive comes back on the air for our next match up

Mark Moment & Assassin Vs Jason Royce & Eddie Zion

Assassin and Jason kick things off. They lock up and Assassin gets behind Jason in a waist lock and rolls him up in a school boy for a two count. Jason rushes back up and runs at Assassin who power slams him for another 2 count. Jason quickly gets away and tags in Eddie. Eddie gets in and points to Mark and Assassin tags him in. Mark gets in and he locks up with Eddie who gets in a side headlock. Mark throws him off into the ropes and jumps over him. As Eddie comes back, Mark his him with a spinning heel kick and then a drop kick. Mark takes Eddie over to their corner where Mark tags in Assassin. Assassin gets and grabs Eddie, DDTing him in the middle of the ring. Assassin over him, but Jason gets into the ring and pulls Assassin off before the ref can count to 3. Assassin picks Eddie up and throws him into the ropes, but Eddie reverses it and as Assassin hit’s the ropes, Jason is there and gets Assassin in the back with his knee and Eddie takes Assassin down with a clothesline and tags in Jason. Jason gets in and Taunts Mark into the ring which distracts the ref, allowing Jason and Eddie to double team Assassin in the corner.

Harvey: Jason Royce, still with his cheating ways

Chase: Jason will do anything to win. And if the ref doesn’t see it, its all legal.

Jason brings Assassin to the corner and chops him and then throws him into the opposite corner, runs and gets a high knee in and then bulldogs Assassin out of the corner. Jason covers and Mark breaks up the count. Jason stomps on Assassin’s head and then kicks him in the ribs. Assassin rolls over to the corner where Jason begins stomping on him. Jason then grabs Assassin and body slams him in the middle of the ring and then gets on the ring apron. Assassin gets up and Jason springboards off the ropes and connects with a flying clothesline into a cover, but only gets a 2 count. Jason takes Assassin and ties him up with the Tree of Woe. Jason runs at Assassin and goes for a spear, but Assassin pulls himself up and Jason spears the ring post.

Harvey: Well that back fired.

Chase: This is Assassin’s chance to tag out

Assassin and Jason both tag in their partners and Mark comes in and takes Eddie down with a clothesline, then a drop kick and a Hurricanrana which brings Eddie to the corner. Mark throws Eddie to the opposite corner, but Eddie reverses it and runs at Mark, who moves and Eddie hit’s the corner chest first and Mark locks in the Tarantula and then lets go of the hold before he can get disqualified. Jason comes into the ring and starts beating on Mark, but Assassin comes in and grabs Jason from behind and delivers a German Suplex. Jason rolls out of the ring as Eddie starts fighting back on Mark, but Mark fights back and throws Eddie into the ropes and catches him with a drop toe hold and Eddie lands on the middle ropes. The fans cheer as Mark runs and nails the 619. Mark tags in Assassin who climbs up to the top rope and hit’s the shooting star press and covers for the one, two, three.

Winner: Mark Moment & Assassin

Mark and Assassin begin celebrating. Mark has his back turned and Assassin is walking towards him and from behind, Jason pushes Assassin who bumps into Mark. Mark turns around and you hear him yell out “What the hell are you doing?” Assassin tries to explain that Jason pushed him, but by this time, Jason and Eddie are going up the ramp, laughing. Mark then shoves Assassin back and exit’s the ring.

Chase: Looks like Royce may have just turned those two against one another

Harvey: Jason has been a snake lately and he seems to be enjoying it.

Harvey: Well, let’s take it back to Biggs’ Thanksgiving celebration, which is in full swing now!

The camera cuts backstage, where Biggs, Cyrus, and The Beast are standing with a huge party going on behind them. Many members of the ring crew are back there, feasting, as are several of the heels. Jason Royce and Eddie Zion makes their way back from their match.

Biggs: Welcome to my Thanksgiving celebration! Help yourselves and eat all you want.

Royce and Zion nod, and make their way to the buffet table.

Chris: This party is the s***, man! The food was better than any my mom ever made for Thanksgiving!

Biggs: That’s because all your mom ever did for Thanksgiving was open a red box and put it in the microwave! Still, things have gone on without a hitch.

At this point, a balding, older midget walks up. He’s dressed in a nice suit, and is a bit on the pudgy side. Biggs’ face lights up when he sees the midget.

Biggs: Noodles! How’ve you been pal!?

Biggs pops down to one knee to give the midget a high five, while The Beast nods towards Noodles.

Chris: Who’s Noodles?

Noodles: That’s me! I used to be Biggs’ manager when he first started out in this business!

Biggs: That you were, although a lot of times, it was more trouble than it was worth. Remember the time where you stole KD’s girlfriend, Snowbunny, and I had to fight him in that Falls Count Anywhere match. That match may have taken years off of my career!

Noodles: What can I say, I was in love!

Biggs: More like in lust. Speaking about Snowbunny, where is she?

Noodles: She left me. But I’d like to think that I traded up! Yolanda, come over here!

At this point, an extremely tall and lanky woman walks into view. She’s even taller than The Beast. Biggs, Cyrus, and The Beast all look up towards her, with Biggs and Cyrus shivering. The Beast remains as stoic as ever, but seems impressed at the size of the woman. Biggs pulls Noodles aside, and gets to one knee to whisper to him.

Biggs: Noodles, I’m happy for you and all, bud, but how the heck do you think this is going to work out? I mean, the height difference...

Noodles: Yolanda and I are in love! How dare you imply that something as trivial as height could get in the way of that!

Biggs: Well, I guess if you two ever have kids, they’d have a shot at being normal height.

Noodles: Exactly!

Biggs: Well, you and Yolanda go enjoy yourselves. Eat all you want!

Yolanda and Noodles proceed to head to the table, as Cyrus, Biggs and The Beast continue to stand at the front to greet their guests. As they stand there, they notice Cindy Shannon walk by dressed in a pilgrim costume as well. She notices the Axis standing there, and rolls her eyes as the three men surround her.

Shannon: Listen, I know that you guys are going to mock me about some phony fish smell that I don’t actually have, and quite frankly, I’m in no mood for your crassness, so just bug off!

Biggs: Actually, Cindy, we weren’t going to pick on you about your fish smell at all. Rather, I just wanted to comment on your pilgrim costume. I must say, you did a good job. However, I can’t help but think about the fact that the pilgrims were Puritans.

Chris: Yeah, and last time I checked, you weren’t exactly what we could call pure, Cindy, if you know what I mean!

Cindy is starting to show her frustration.

Biggs: I mean, I can in good conscious wear this costume, because I know that my moral standards are just as pure, if not better than that of the pilgrims! But you, Cindy, you’re probably making them turn in their graves thinking that somebody like you would be associated with them!

Cindy: Listen! I’m only wearing this costume because Max Carter told me to! I have had it with your insults and antics!

Chris: Hey, if you don’t want to wear the costume, you don’t have to! In fact, it’d probably be more reflective of your true nature if you just took it off right here, right now!

Cindy’s face is turning red, and she slaps Cyrus right across the face before storming off. The Axis laughs it up, and a big smile comes across Cyrus’ face as he rubs his cheek.

Cyrus: I think she likes me!

As the three men stand there, and the party continues at full tilt, a person in a turkey suit walks up, and does the funky chicken. Biggs is delighted by the exhibition!

Biggs: Dude! That is freakin’ awesome! Way to show your Thanksgiving spirit! Come right in!

The turkey struts right into the party, much to the joy of the crowd. The Axis walks back in to join the party.

[President Jeff]

The scene changes to Cindy Shannon standing side by side with Pence Weatherlight who is looking quite jovial.

Cindy: Hello there, my name is Cindy Shannon, and I am here with APW Overdrive #1 Contendor hopeful, Pence Weatherlight. First of all we at the APW want to wish you all a happy thanksgiving...

Pence pulls the microphone away from Cindy, who looks at him with confusion, and Pence shakes his head in an unapproving way.

Pence: Cindy, you are doing it all wrong. This is how you say happy thanksgiving to the fans of APW: Hello there ladies and gentlemen!

The fans all begin to chant reaper as Pence then yells into the microphone.

Pence: Happy early thanksgiving and to those who have their thanksgiving on another date, screw you!

Pence laughs as do the American fans, but then Pence speaks up.

Pence: I'm just kidding folks, to all of you who are not Americans, happy belated thanksgiving, and welcome to Overdrive! Tonight we have a show for you and by show I mean the main event, everything before that is going to be complete and utter crap.

Cindy: Don't say that about the rest of the matches tonight.

Pence: But it is oh so true if you think about it. Half of these matches are going to blow and only the main event truly has the star power behind it to be a significant boost in the ratings, but then again when Pence Weatherlight is in the main event or any match for that matter, ratings go through the roof at least for that part of the night.

Cindy: But what about Level One, Victor Hades, the AKA, and the Axis of Awesome to name a few, aren't they considerable super stars?

Pence: Hahahahahaha! Don't make me laugh, seriously Cindy? You think that any of the names you just dropped have any chance against a star studded superstar like myself? Let me tell you what they should be thankful for right now....they should be thankful that they are even allowed on to the card right now. Level One is not even close to being the same he was when he beat me over a month ago, as his damn promo this week suggested, and as far as the other talent goes, they never had any talent to begin with. Especially that bitch Biggs.

Cindy: But he is the Overdrive Champion.

Pence: For now. This guy has managed to hold off Shadow's advances for the title, big freakin deal, I could do that with an arm tied behind my back. The guy has no talent and that title will be mine because once again Biggs will manage to hold off a title stint from Shadow, and then afterwards at Christmas Chaos he will actually have to fight a real Main Eventer in myself.

Cindy: Well Biggs says that you are wrong about him....

Pence: He also said he would prove that when he beat me in the ring on the last Overdrive and you remember what happened? He got cocky and I took the win for my team, as I have done in almost every tag team setting I have ever been in, and I intend tonight to be just another notch in the belt for my tag team career which is more star studded than Level One's and Victor Hade's tag careers combined. I mean come on! This guy had all the odds stacked in his favor, Chris Cyrus and the Beast out there to help him, and he still couldn't clench the win over a surprise roll up. That will teach him for making false predictions and going against the millions of fans. And what about this celebration rumor spreading through the backstage area that Biggs is hosting?

Cindy: I hear it is going to be quite the party.

Pence: Well every party has a crasher.

Cindy: What is that suppose to mean?

Pence: Well that is for me to know and Biggs to find out, all I can tell you is Biggs better be looking over his shoulder for the rest of the night, because he will never know where the Reaper may pop up. Oh and before I forget, tomorrow I am holding a very large thanksgiving day party of my own, guests like Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic and Robert Downey Jr. will be making appearances, and the food to those who want to come will be....absolutely free! Payed for by your's truly. I hope to see you all there, now if you don't mind Cindy...I have a main event to plan for.

Pence walks off and Cindy speaks into her microphone.

Cindy: Happy thanksgiving APW Universe.

Overdrive goes to the ring for the next match

Slade and Aiden start things off. They shake hands before locking up. Slade gets in a side headlock and takes Aiden over, who is quick to get out of it by getting Slade in a head scissor. Slade gets out and both are back to their feet. They lock up again and this time, Aiden gets a knee in on Slade and throws him to the corner. Aiden runs and gets lifts up over the rope and lands on the ring apron. Slade gets his punched blocked and gets punched in the face.
