Overdrive - Des Moines, Iowa (08/11/11)

[President Jeff]

Pyro shoots from the stage and the camera pans through the crowd as the fans are on their feet in excitement for seeing APW. The camera then cuts to ringside with Darren Harvey and Johnny Chase

Harvey: Welcome everyone to THURSDAY NIGHT OVERDRIVE!!!

Chase: We are just 17 days from Shockwave and things are heating up

Harvey: Tonight folks, we will see two champions battle it out in a non title match. Nathaniel Havok takes on Johnny Rebel

Chase: Also two up and coming Megastars will meet in the ring. Ebirah will take on Zachary Rodell

Harvey: Lets not forget the Main Event. CJ Gates takes on Khaos. And the Undisputed Champion Biggs will be here with us to call the match!

Chase: I can't wait for Biggs to be here..

Harvey: Speaking of Biggs

All of a sudden with the arena lights fading to a dim blue and blue laser lights shooting from the stage. “Spaceman,” by The Killers, plays as the fans begin to boo loudly.



Biggs makes his entrance with the APW Undisputed Championship belt clasped around his waist. He's dressed in a fancy dress suit, complete with a dark blue tie and feathers on the shoulders. He has his signature shades on, as he dances down the ramp, soaking in all the venom the crowd can give him. As he reaches the ring, he calls for a mic, and the lights come back on. He waits for the crowd to die down a bit before beginning to speak.

Biggs: Thank you for the warm reception, Des Moines.

This draws louder boos from the fans.

Harvey: It's sickening how disrespectful Biggs is towards this crowd!

Chase: What have these fans done to deserve his resepect!? Nothing, that's what!

Biggs: Oh good, I wasn't sure if you redneck hicks would pick up on my sarcasm. I'm going to get straight to the point. Lately, a lot of people have been going around claiming that Overdrive is their show. Those were Johnny Rebel's exact words. Nathaniel Havok said as much when he said he was a better quality champion than me. C.J. Gates implied it by coming out here to start the first show after Test for the Best, where mind you, I won this APW Undisputed Championship clasped around my picturesque waist. But last week, I showed everyone exactly who's show this was by beating both Havok and Rebel in this ring, and afterwards, C.J. was too much of a coward to even step in the ring to look me in the face!

A huge “C.J! C.J! C.J!” chant gets going. Biggs starts talking in a fake midwestern voice, mocking the crowd.

Biggs: I hate to tell all y'all simpletons out here, but C.J. won't be able to make it out here at this point in time!

Biggs' tone turns back to normal as a video pops up on the Action-Tron, showing two large, burly men in dark uniforms standing outside C.J. Gates' locker room.

Biggs: You see, to ensure that I was able to come out here and make the point that this is my show, I have hired private security to ensure that he is unable to come out here and rudely interrupt me, because let's face it, folks, C.J. Gates seems to love nothing else more than to try and upstage me each and every week. It seems like I can barely get a word out edgewise without him coming out here and trying to talk down to me. The fact is, he can spout off all his beatitudes, speak in all the platitudes he wants, the fact is that I am APW Undisputed Champion, and he is not! I earned this title by beating one of the top guys in the business today in “Level-One” Lester Only, not just by outwrestling him, but outsmarting him! For C.J. Gates to think that I did not earn my Undisputed Championship is not only an insult to Lester Only, but more importantly, an insult to me! And if you think, C.J. for one moment, that I won't be able to defeat you in our Title Match at Shockwave, because I didn't “earn” my win against Lester Only, then you'll find out real quick just how wrong you are!

At this point, the crowd starts cheering wildly. Biggs looks to the stage to see what they're cheering about. While he's looking towards the stage, C.J. Gates comes rushing through the crowd, and slides into the ring behind Biggs, motioning for the champion to turn around. As Biggs turns around, C.J. gives him a hard punch to the face, and backs him into the corner with a series of punches! The fans are going wild, chanting C.J.'s name at the top of their lungs as he continues to bludgen Biggs! The Spaceman blocks a punch and shoves C.J. back, unclasping the belt and trying to deck C.J. with it! C.J. ducks the shot, and gives Biggs a Dropkick to the face! As Biggs is down, C.J. quickly makes his way up to the top turnbuckle, and looks like he's about to leap off as Biggs rolls out of the ring, real quick, grabbing his title belt. C.J. stays perched on the top rope, as Biggs yells at him from the floor. C.J. has some words of his own as Biggs angrily makes his way back up the ramp.

Harvey: What an explosive start to APW Overdrive! Biggs should have gotten better security!

Chase: C.J. Gates had no business being out here!

The two men continue to argue as APW Overdrive goes to a commercial break.

Paige: The following match-up is a triple-threat match, scheduled for one-fall! Introducing first, weighing in at 230 pounds… from Spanish Harlem, New York… JR KINGSTON!

Sirens begin blasting throughout the arena, and the lights begin to flash red. “Taking Back Control” by Sparta begins blaring over the speakers, as Frank Douglas steps out onto the entrance ramp. Frank holds his head down, his signature white towel draped over his head. Frank throws back his head, dropping the towel to the ground, and hold his arms out to either side of him like wings in his Phoenix pose. Then, Frank takes running go down the entrance ramp, and slides underneath the bottom ropes. Rising to one knee, Frank holds his arms out in the Phoenix pose, and the jumps to his feet.

The lights go down as "Superstar" begins playing over the PA System. A spotlight shines down at the entrance of the aisle, where Bobby Bodacious is kneeling while wearing a robe. The robe is sky blue with his name on it. Bodacious stands up completely after approximately 20 seconds. As Bodacious heads to the ring, he makes sure to completely snob the fans. Bodacious enters the ring, where he slowly takes his robe off, handing it off to an unknown employee at ringside. While handing off the robe, Bodacious makes sure to lecture the employee to be careful with the robe.

Paige: And their opponent… weighing in at 230 pounds… from Beverley Hills, California… “The Superstar”… BOBBY BODACIOUS!!

Paige: Here is your winner… JR KINGSTON!!

[/color]

“Making Money Blueprint” by DJ Sonic blares throughout the arena as JR Kingston celebrates in the ring. He looks at both of the battered bodies of Frank Douglas in the ring and Bobby Bodacious on the outside and smirks. He raises his arms again to the disdain of the fans before sliding out of the ring and walking to the back.

Frank Douglas slowly got up to his feet. He staggers a little bit as he tries to keep his balance. He eventually staggers forward to the ropes as he leans on it for leverage.

Harvey: I don’t think Frank Douglas knows where he is…

Chase: The man has been dropped on his neck! His equilibrium has been rocked! Of course, he wouldn’t know where he is!

Frank let’s go of the ropes trying to balance himself but to no avail as he fell forward to the ropes again. Suddenly, “The Air That I Breathe” by All That Remains plays throughout the PA system as the stage is engulfed by smoke. Frank Douglas still trying to clear the smoke looks at the direction of the stage.

Harvey: W-Who is this? I’ve never heard that music here before.

Chase: Someone changed their music perhaps?

The former CWC World Champion Tyler Graves materializes from the smoke as the crowd erupts in cheers. Graves raises his arms in the air as the crowd chants his name.

Harvey: That’s…

Chase: That’s Tyler Graves! The former CWC World Champion!

Harvey: W-What the hell is he doing here??

Chase: Maybe he wanted to be somewhere where he has competition?

Graves makes his down to the ring slapping some hands of the fans. He circles the ring slapping some more hands before stopping in front of Bobby Bodacious who is getting to his feet. He and Bobby stares each other down but Tyler just shakes his head and continues slapping the hands of the fans ringside. He stops in front of a steel steps and climbs to the ring. He jumps over the top rope landing on the mat. He walks over by the ropes and raises his arms again to the delight of the fans.

Harvey: The APW Universe is going insane!

Chase: Big deal. You’ll see that Tyler will just be kick around this parts! APW Megastars are going to prove that this guy is just a shark in an itty bitty pond and that APW is an ocean!

He asks for a microphone and Paige hands him one as Frank Douglas stares at him as he sits comfortably on the mat.

Harvey: We’ll see that in time! But right now let’s listen to what he’s going to say!

Tyler pounds the microphone to see if its on. The pounding echoes on the PA system as he slowly raises it up by his mouth. The crowd is still hot for him as they continue to chant his name thus not letting him able to speak.

Harvey: What a reception this guy is getting!

Chase: Big deal! So he won an inter-promotion’s World title, so does Level-One! These fans are not treating Level-One the same way!

Harvey: I think it’s because Graves cares about the fans and Level-One doesn’t?

Chase: Eh these fans are overrated. They’re the most romanticized people in this business. I think they shouldn’t be.

Tyler finally hushed them down as he began to speak.

Tyler: Wow what a reception you’ve given me. I’m really overwhelmed that you guys are genuinely happy that I am here. You have welcomed me again with open arms just like the way you did to me before when I first walked in to the CWC Arena for the CWC Ascension Tournament. But it was different back then. I was an unknown kid back then whose biggest exposure is being on syndicated television for Pro Wrestling X. But you gave me a chance and I showed you what I’ve got and I’ve won you over. And ever since then, you’ve been really really good to me. And I really appreciate that…

The crowd erupts in cheers again as they chant “No, thank you” to Tyler instead.

Tyler: I’ve been away for awhile. See, I wasn’t that successful at this year’s Ascension tournament and I was burned out for going it the whole 2010, which was my break out year. I was competing in some of the biggest promotions around the world and I wasn’t slowing down. So when I lost my first round match at this year’s Ascension tournament, I decided to take a break. So I flew to Japan and stayed at the Pro Wrestling NOAH dojo for most of the first half of 2011 and trained my ass off there improving my craft.

He takes a pause as the APW Universe listens actively to him. After a few second, he spoke again.

Tyler: I came back to America a couple of months ago. I competed in a couple of local promotions in and around the Nevada and California area but due to them being a small scale promotion, both promotions died. So that’s when I thought, if I want to be the best wrestler in the world again, I need to be in a promotion where the best competes. That’s when President Jeff came in.

The crowd began to chant “President Jeff”.

Tyler: President Jeff has been trying to bring me into APW for awhile now. Ever since he saw my performance in the On Hallowed Ground event but I was tied up to the VWF, PWR and SCCW that time so I denied his offer. But he was so determined to get me that he called me, after a few months of not talking to each other, and asked me what I’ve been up to and told me that his offer still stand and there is a spot for me in APW if I want to make a return in professional wrestling. And you know what?

There was a pause.

Tyler: I grabbed it. I took his offer and here I am in front of you. I’m better than ever, I’m in the best shape of my life and you can bet your ass that I am ready to compete in this very ring again. And for all those people in the back, for all the “boys” in the back who vilified me when I walked into the locker room earlier who thinks that I don’t and did not deserve all the opportunities I have receive before… well you’re more than welcome to test me in this very ring and I will show you why I am and still am the best in this business.

He throws the microphone to the mat and raises his arms up as his music plays throughout the arena. The fans chants his name again as he poses for them in the ring.


Backstage, Cindy Shannon approaches Branden Harvey and a young wrestler that's standing next to him.

Cindy: Branden Harvey, who is this you're standing next to?

Branden: This guy? He's none other than Terry Lee Richards. I'm training him, teaching him how to wrestle.

Cindy: Teaching him how to wrestle? You barely know how to wrestle.

Branden: Really? REALLY?? Terry disagrees with you, woman. You're part of the conspiracy against me. But this conspiracy will be rectified. Up next, I face Young Mannie. Mannie is going down. Then, I'm going after nathaniel Havok for the APW Xtreme Championship. Young Mannie is just a...

Suddenly, Cindy gets thrown out of the way and in her place is Young Mannie who knocks Branden down to the ground and then Kicks Richards. He picks Richards up and gives him the D.B.M onto the concrete. Mannie runs off as Branden gets up and checks on Richards.

Chase: Branden Harvey vs. Young Mannie is up next!

[President Jeff]

The scene comes back from commercial, backstage where Shane West is standing with Nathaniel Havok.

West: Here with me now, is Nathaniel Havok. Nathaniel, we all know that you’re not one for “stupid questions”. So I’m going to try and challenge you here. You’ve been promising us for a long time now, that once you became the new APW Xtreme Champion, you would bring honor and prestige back to the championship. In your losing efforts last week, you allowed APW Undisputed Champion, Biggs to get the pin on you. If tonight Johnny Rebel is able to do the same, will that make this title run pointless?

Nathaniel smirks at Shane, chuckling at what he has just said.

Havok: Pointless? Pointless, Shane? Are you kidding with me? First of all, nothing you could ever ask me, would challenge me on any intellectual level. You’re an idiot Shane, just face it. You had dreams of being the next Larry King, yet your stuck in the wrestling business because you’re a complete and utter dipshit. Secondly Shane, you need to realize something, and realize it quick! There is not a better professional wrestler in the world, better than the Suicidal Satanist! I am the be-all-end-all of this business! Screw Ric Fair, screw McMaho… I mean Helmsley, screw Hurricane Jeff! Screw Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, the Franchise Shane Douglas, and especially Johnny “F’n” Rebel! I’M THE BEST! And there’s not a man alive who can contest that! If they do, they get put in their place! Tonight, Jonny Rebel gets put in his place, Shane! And that’s…

Simply “F’n” Put!

Nathaniel immediately turns and walks away from West, leaving him alone and looking into the camera.

West: Okay, well, I guess it’s back to ringside!


Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall

The beginning of BMF airs through the area for a couple of seconds building anticipation, Young Mannie pulls a Black&Mild or a blunt from behind his ear, he lights it and the arena lights cut off as he walks down the ramp as his entire outfit glows in the dark as he holds his hands out while puffing smoke in the air, While the crowd sings the lyrics of the song at the top of their lungs.

"Fuel" by Metallica hits the speakers. Branden Harvey sprints through the curtain and toward the ring.

[President Jeff]

The scene opens up backstage where C.J. Gates can be seen in the hallway, pacing back and fourth, as the fans in the arena cheers loudly. He pauses and turns to face the camera with a smile on his face.

"Well, I guess you proved your point, didn't you, Biggs? I guess you were able to get across everything that you have been trying to get across since you won that title and since I won the Test for the Best tournament.

"You proved that the only way you can best me, is if you lock me away in a room so you can get your uninterrupted face time. But of course, you don't care how you get it, as long as you do, right? I mean, after all, this is your show. This is your federation. You are the reason that everyone buys tickets and sits in those stands.

"Think again, Sally Talfourd."

Gates shakes his head.

"You'd think by now people would learn not to make those sort of claims when they've been proven wrong. Now, I'm not going to stand here and say that this is my show or that we should be calling this C.J.PW, but I'm sure that if you took a fan poll, you would see that there is one person that the fans love seeing more than the Undisputed champion Biggs and more than the Overdrive champion Johnny Rebel.

"And that one person is the man standing before you, yours truly, C.J. Gates.

"But that's not why I'm here. No, you see, Biggs, since it took me a bit longer to get out to that ring then I would have liked, I never really got to speak my mind. I never really got to address the fact that you still think you truly won that title fair and square. You still think that you are the token World champion that everyone wants to see, the one that everyone believes in.

"But not me. Truth be told, I don't even think you should be the Undisputed champion. As far as I'm concerned, you stole that title from Lester Only. As far as I'm concerned, it should be Lester Only versus C.J. Gates at Shockwave. And just think, if that actually happened, you'd still be fighting to hold onto your cherished Overdrive title."

Gates smirks slightly. The fans cheer once again, and even Johnny Chase can be seen leaping to his feet.

"Unfortunately, that's not whats on the card after that trick you played with the ropes. And that's fine, really, because it gives me another chance to prove to yet another person that underhanded tactics, loose morals, and despicable actions will only get you so far.

"And I know you're going to be out there tonight, spewing more venom my way as you favor Khaos at every corner, and I'm prepared for it. Like I said, you have to be prepared in cases like this. You have to be ready for whatever comes your way and when you decide to get up from your seat and enter the ring, just know that I'll be expecting you. So be ready for a fight...

"And a sign of things to come."

With that Gates turns and walks out of the shot as the scene fades back to ringside


Paige: Coming to us from Indianapolis, Indiana! "The ENFORCER of SORROW!" Nathaniel...HAVVOKKK!!!

'Slit My Wrist' hits on the PA system as purple and lime green strobe lights flicker around the arena. The song plays for about a minute before Nathaniel Havok finally steps out from the back, guns blazing. He begins stomping around on the ramp, yelling and hyping up the crowd. Some boo him, but his "cult-like" following overshadows them with their deafening cheers. He gives a sadistic grin before sprinting down to the ring and sliding in under the bottom rope. He pops up off the mat and runs right for the far right turnbuckle. With a graceful leap, he lands on the second rope and throws his hands in the air once again. He hops down and stands in the corner as his music dies out.

Paige: His opponent hailing from Chicago, Illinois!! "Simmmplllyyyy PUT!" JJJJOOOOHNNNYYY RRRREEBBELLLLL!!!!

#SIMPLY F'N PUT!



#IT'S TIME TO PRAY THE PRICE!

[The crowd has come unglued in their hatred for Rebel. He gets to the ring and pulls a camera man down to the ground and on all fours as Rebel uses him as a stepping stone to get in the ring. He takes off his robe to reveal his gold tights and tasseled white boots. He poses on the second turnbuckle with both hands held high.]

Chase: Great match here between these two men! Could steal the show don't you agree?

Harvey: I like the match up but as of late Havok has had his hand in one too many people's face. He's pissing off a lot of folks and time can only tell when it will all come back to bite him in the ass.

Chase: Havok is the Xtreme Champion, he can handle himself just fine...Let's get on with the match shall we?

Non Title
Nathaniel Havok Vs Johnny Rebel


Before the bell even goes off Havok has dropped his Xtreme Title and rushes Johnny Rebel and they begin to trade punches back and forth. Havok blocks a right and pulls Rebel, whipping him across the ring. Hitting the ropes and coming full speed back toward Havok, Rebel lifts a knee up into Havok's mid section before lifting him and slamming him down with a quick but effective Gut-Wrench Powerbomb. Rebel gets to his feet and pulls Havok to his feet with a handful of hair and Havok starts swinging to Rebel's stomach before he gets up onto a single knee. Now on one knee and one foot, Nathaniel Havok jumps up, spinning himself around and crashing the back heel of his foot against Johnny Rebel's chin with a Wheel Kick. Havok gets up and hits a running front Moonsault splash on the downed body of Johnny Rebel. He hooks the leg as the referee drops and begins the first pinfall attempt of the match.

.KICKOUT.

Havok isn't surprised as he starts pounding a fist into Rebel's face, Rebel covering up to block whatever shots he can. Havok gets up and heads towards the corner turnbuckle. He climbs it as Johnny Rebel is getting from the mat. Rebel spots Havok climbing up the turnbuckle and rushes the corner and pushes Havok's legs so he drops and straddles the top turnbuckle. Rebel pulls him down in a Tree Of Woe position and begins laying in with stomps to the upside down chest of Havok. Johnny Rebel walks away from Havok hanging upside down and turns back towards Havok about half way across the ring. He jumps in place before running full speed at Havok. As Rebel flips forward to crush his body into Havok's, Havok drops his legs off the turnbuckle and slides out the ring a second before causing Rebel to crash into the empty turnbuckle pads. His body slumps down into the canvas and Havok holds himself up on the ring apron.

Chase: Havok pulling his thoughts together got him out of that situation, great move from our Xtreme Champion!

Harvey: So far, solid shots and moves from both men. And we've just begun!!

Havok pulls Johnny Rebel outside the ring half way, his upper body all the way to the waist is hanging over the side of the ring apron. Havok climbs up on the apron Havok steps back and takes a few big and quick steps back towards Rebel and flips forward connecting with a vicious legdrop into Rebel's upper half, mainly hitting the neck and upper chest. Havok lands on his feet and slams down an arm into Rebel's chest before pulling him outside and letting his body flop onto the ringside floor. Havok argues with a fan at ringside and slaps a drink out of the fan's hand. Back Johnny Rebel, Havok pulls his opponent up and rolls him into the ring.

Harvey: Havok looking very confident! We might have an finish here soon by "The Enforcer of Sorrow"!

Chase: Let's not count our Johnny Rebel...Simply F'N Put...Period...WHAT!!

Harvey: What? Why are you yelling...?

Havok takes his time to enter the ring, he jumps up on the ring apron and dips in between the middle and top stretched ropes. Johnny Rebel is on one knee breathing and collecting his balance. He gets up as Havok enters the ring and Havok rushes to keep the pace and control of the match but Rebel hip tosses his extreme opponent and as Havok hits the mat he quickly sits up. Rebel comes up fast from the back and hits Havok with a diving clothesline that pushes Havok's forward against his chest. Havok rolls over and kicks his feet into the mat trying to deal with the snapping pain of the clothesline. Johnny Rebel up on his feet leans against the ropes to the right of Havok but as Havok pushes himself up to his feet, Rebel comes in sideways and cracks Havok with a stiff Superkick. Rebel drops to the ground as does Havok after taking the shot. Rebel got off balanced but crawls over and covers Nathaniel Havok. The referee begins the count.

Thr...Kickout!!

Rebel looks up not wanting to continue but not going to give up his fight. He tries to apply an Arm Triangle but Havok digs a thumb into Rebel's eye and Rebel screams out. The thumb was deep and as the referee tends to Rebel, Havok gets up and falls toward the ropes and catches himself with them. Havok takes the time to breath and rest as Rebel is holding his eye. The referee backs off and begins the 10 count everyone gets when on the mat and cannot get up. Rebel begins to get up at around the count of 5 but as he gets to his feet, Havok comes in quickly and jumps past Rebel, grabbing the back of his neck and pulling him down for a falling neckbreaker. The fans immediately begin with the boos as Havok gets up laughing at who he just mocked with the move.

Harvey: Did he just...You think or just another move...? He wouldn't...

Chase: But he did!! Havok just mocked Jason Kash by using Kash's U.T.I. Finisher!! Hahahaha!

Harvey: Those two are going to erupt when they get their hands on one another...

Pulling Johnny Rebel up to his feet, Havok slaps a simply snap suplex on him and places him in the center of the ring. Havok gets up from the mat and walks to the Turnbuckles and climbs up to the top. Johnny Rebel begins to get up from the canvas and as he stands up, Rebel is still bent over facing the direction where Havok is located on the top ropes. Havok launches off the top ropes and lands with his legs spread over Rebel's head and within an instant, Havok has flipped himself and his opponent in a front flip, putting his opponent into the mat with Havok's "Suicidal Downpour" finisher. The fans erupt as the move is executed and the ring itself bounces from the impact. Havok pulls Rebel's limp body and turns him onto his back and makes the cover. The referee counts with a slower count but fast enough.

Winner: Nathaniel Havok

Harvey: What a win for the Xtreme Champion here tonight....Wait, wait, that's...

From the crowd comes Jason Kash who slides in the ring carrying a heavy bottomed sock. Nathaniel Havok is groggy as he stands with his arm raised, the Xtreme Title drooping over in his gripped hand. Kash swings around the tube sock and takes aim and swings the sock hard down into the back of Havok's neck. Havok drops to the mat, the belt flopping down beside him. Kash takes a few more shots with the sock down into Havok's back. Kash stops and turns the sock upside down as rolled quarters begin to fall out of the sock, some loose coins fall and bounce off of Havok's back.

Chase: What vicious shots from Jason Kash with....with a sock?

Harvey: Filled with rolls of quarters. A few rolls in a sock would be dangerous. Full soda cans in a pillow case would be worse but...

Chase: What is he doing now, put down the Xtreme Title! That ain't yours!

Jason Kash lifts up the APW Xtreme Championship off the mat and looks down at the belt as if a connection has been made between them. Kash places the place down across Havok's back and simply leaves the ring. Moments later a few EMTs and even Sally Talfourd comes down to ringside but Jason Kash has already disappeared into the live audience. And we go to commercial

[President Jeff]

Harvey: Who is this mystery man who will appear at Shockwave?

Chase: A video leaked out last weekend, perhaps the return of Bryan Payne?

Harvey: How awesome would that be

Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall

“Halloween II theme” by John Carpenter starts playing over the loud speakers as Ebirah comes out from the back wearing a black ring robe and carrying a scepter as he comes down to the ring. He is accompanied by his goons in The Twilight Zone including masked rudos Trick r Treat and Pumpkinhead.

Paige: Introducing first, Weighing in at 210 pounds, EBIRAH!

Ebirah climbs into the ring and poses with his minions. Since he doesn’t trust the ref he takes off his ring robe and hands it along with his scepter to Pumpkinhead. His music stops playing and his minions head to the back as he readies himself for war.

The house lights dim as the Doctor P remix of Example's “Last One Standing” starts to blare through the PA system. Purple, Yellow, and blue strobe lights start to flash on the stage as Zachary Rodell rushes out from behind the curtain. He heads over to the left side of the stage and throws his arms up to a light cheer from the crowd, before rushing to the other side and doing the same. The welcome isn't as warm as he expected, but most of the fans have no clue who he is so it will have to do for now. He makes it back to the center of the stage just as Example belts out the lyrics for which the song is named. Zach crouches slightly just as the words last ones standing are repeated. Then, right as the music hits the forty second mark and the beat drops, he hops up as purple and yellow pyro sprays up on either side of the ring. He then makes his way down the ramp and to the ring as the music continues, slapping hands with the kids in attendance – he's pretty sure a few of the adults slipped their hands in for a slap as well.

Paige: And his opponent, weighing in at 205 pounds, ZACHARY RODELL

Zach stops slapping hands a few feet away from the ring and sprints the last bit before sliding into the ring under the bottom rope. Agile like a cat, Zach springs to his feet before running to the corner and hopping up to the second rope and throwing his arms up one more time before the house lights come back on and the music fades away.

Zachary Rodell Vs Ebirah


The match begins with Ebirah pulling Rodell off the top rope and begins working on him in the corner with some punches and then a chop. Ebriah takes Rodell and throws him into the ropes and Ebirah goes for a hip toss, but Rodell flips and lands on his feet and Rodell knocks Ebirah down with a clothesline. Ebirah gets up and Rodell scoop slams him. Ebirah gets back up and Rodell brings Ebirah to the corner and throws him to the opposite corner. Rodell runs and jumps on Ebirah for a Monkey flip, but Ebirah catches him, turns and sits Rodell on the top rope. Rodell kicks Ebirah in the chest and he stumbles back. Rodell dives off and Ebirah catches him with a spinning heel kick. Rodell goes down and Ebirah covers

Chase: Rodell is about to screw up, just wait

Rodell gets up and goes to the top rope. Ebirah gets up and Rodell jumps off the top and as he comes down, Ebirah spits Green mist into Rodell’s face. Rodell can’t see and Ebirah grabs him and Suplexes him. He holds on, lifts him up and suplexes him again, and then for a third time. Rodell is near the corner and Ebirah goes onto the ring apron and to the top rope

Chase: I told you Darren, he Rodell would screw up.

Harvey: I wouldn’t be so sure

As Ebirah is on the top rope, Rodell is up, and some how manages to see Ebirah on the top rope and cuts him off with a punch to the mid section. Rodell climbs up to the top rope as well and the two begin exchanging punches. Just then, Rodell goes to back Body drop Ebirah off the top rope, but Ebirah blocks it and knee’s Rodell in the head and he falls off the top rope. Ebirah comes off the top with a shooting Star Press and connects

[President Jeff]

The door reads 101.
It opens without a creek; allowing ‘true Brit’ Johnny Brown to step out onto the balcony. He has his boots in his hands and his bag slung on his back. The quickly dons his Airware; and goes to leave before he spots the camera.

Brown: Alright!? I ‘pose you want to ‘ear my words of wisdom, taste some True Brit genius on Asylum’s poor cousin Overdrive. Let’s move away before Jolene wakes up, she needs her rest.

Brown leads the crew to his Triumph sat in the car park. He straddles it sitting with his helmet on his lap.

Brown: Well it’s time for a ratings pop, Those real wrestling fans out there tune into Asylum to see my debut match, my opponents Demon and Knoxville have had their chance to talk the talk in 3 short days I’ll shut their gobs like the rioters shut down me’ ‘omeland. Johnny Brown is going to loot Asylum and leave it burning. When its left in ruins maybe Overdrive will be next.
Strapping his helmet in place Johnny starts up his baby, he calls the camera in close for a parting shot.

CJ Gates, Khaos I as you face off the Override main event this week, keep an eye over your shoulder you never know when the Ambassador of Violence will turn up.

Rule Britannia!

In seconds all that is left is dust.

Back to ringside


Voice: He's coming to save us....

The fans go wild as the Action-tron bursts to static and Pence Weatherlight emerges on the entrance ramp to "For the Love of the Game" by Pillar. Pence salutes the fans and then as he finishes the salutes pyros begin to explode around the action-tron screen. Pence then begins to make his way down to the ring, posing to take pictures with the fans, and signing autographs. He finally, after about two minutes, makes his way into the ring, and to the center where, with microphone in hand, he begins to talk.

Pence: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another exciting episode of OVERDRIVE!

Pence pauses, listening to the chants of "APW", and then he returns to speaking.

Pence: Tonight...was supposed to be my first night back in the ring, my first night to fight for you all, but Jeff told me to take it slow, so I'm gonna take it slow. Mind you I've never been good at taking it slow or waiting in lines for that matter, but I guess that is just me, but for Jeff...I will try my best to play by his rules at least until the time is right, and then all bets are off. You see, ladies and gentlemen, I didn't come back to take it slow...I didn't come back to wait in a [censored] line. I came back to fight villainy at its' source and laugh as I watch it vainly struggle against my will and the people's voice. I see what is going on around here...I know the problems that face us and to be quite honest...I'm concerned. Does C.J. have what it takes to win a championship from Biggs, for instance? The hero in me says...sure, he can do it just has to put his mind to it, but I still have my doubts. I watch tape, I review files, and I analyze fighting techniques, and to be fair to C.J., he has some game. He has talent and it is going to get him places, but can it get him to the ultimate prize? That is left to be seen. If his opponent were Sally, I would say he has this...that there is no doubt in my mind that C.J. would be slapping a hoe in front of all you people at Shockwave, but this is Biggs.

If there is any man in Sports Entertainment today that knows Biggs...it is me. I've dealt with him more times than even I care to shed light on and we have split ourselves fifty, fifty when it comes to championships and that is because I'm willing to do what it takes to win. C.J. though...is too pure. Sure, a man can win a championship with grit and will alone, but a man also needs to know when it is time to go into the mud and knock a bitch out you know? But the question is...does C.J. know that? Does C.J. have what it takes when that bell rings to come out here, go against a known scoundrel who is going to do nothing more than try to derail him before Shockwave? You see, I could live with these odds if I weren't a man of the people...I could live with the fact that this was C.J. vs. Biggs if I wasn't concerned about the well being of this show, but I am. But that is neither here nor there. This match is C.J.'s match and I'm to keep my nose out of it. If he wants to continue to think he is better than Biggs just because Biggs takes short cuts, that is his business, but if he wants help...in any way, shape, or form...my door is always open. I didn't come out here of course to talk about a match that will decide the fate of this show. Oh no...I came out here to talk about our future.

The fans cheer as Pence nods his head and listens for a while before continuing again.

Pence: Ladies and gentlemen of Overdrive...we have options. Sure, the good men of this show are outnumbered by the might of corruption and darkness, but APW is much more than a few good men. It is a show of the people, though corrupted and darkened by the champions who fly false banners of superiority in the halls of their predecessors and spit in the face of those that seek justice, there is and will always be the people. And I am your instrument...your sword of reckoning to be used to slay the giants with the vilest of intent and destroy the shadows that darken your path. All you need to do is say what you want me to do...all you need to do is will it of me and I will do as you ask. I will fight whoever you choose...whenever you chose...and however you choose because I know that without the people this show is meaningless. I still await your call, ladies and gentlemen, I still await the moment you summon me from the back to seek out your justice...to seek out your purification and your revenge! So ladies and gentlemen, it is up to you to decide the fate of your show...not C.J., not Biggs, not Rebel, not Khaos, not Havok, and definitely not Branden Harvey...you ladies and gentlemen are the voice of what happens and when it happens. It is time you let yourself be heard so that those that oppose you can tremble before the triumphant symphony of your truth. The ultimate truth, that no matter how much things change...no matter who is champion and who is not champion...that there will always be one vast majority that controls the fate of this show for the rest of eternity...the masses.

And I, Pence Weatherlight, shall fight for that majority till every last bone in my body is crushed and destroyed, and till the breath leaves me leaving me nothing, but an empty corpse for the vultures to feast upon. Ladies and gentlemen, it is time...let them hear you...let everyone know that you...and only you are the masters of this show['s destiny!

The fans erupt into chants of "APW" as Pence Weatherlight bows and nods his head as the chant changes into a "Weatherlight" chant as Pence begins to exit the ring in pure bliss as "For the Love of the Game" by Pillar plays loudly over the PA as Overdrive goes to commercial.

[President Jeff]

APW Overdrive comes back from commercial break with “Spaceman” playing as Biggs takes a seat at the announce table.

Harvey: Well, folks, it's main event time, which means unfortunately, we are being joined by the APW Undisputed Champion, Biggs.

Biggs: It's great to see you too, Harvey. If you're going to mock me, please have the courtesy to make sure I'm don't have a headset on. It makes you sound unprofessional...

Chase: Seriously, Harvey! Show some respect to our champion! By the way, Biggs, what became of those security guards?

Biggs: Well, they were fired, of course. It's so hard to find good help these days.

The camera switches to the ring, where Nicky Paige is standing in the center.

Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and is your APW Overdrive Main Event!

The super crunchy power chords of Walk by Pantera begins to blast over the arena sound system as the man known as Khaos steps out onto the entrance ramp. He is dressed in a worn out pair of Levi jeans cutoff to make shorts, black knee and elbow pads, a Misfits t-shirt with the sleeves cutoff and wrestling shoes covered by black kick pads.

Paige: Making his way to the ring, weighing in at two hundred and seventy-five pounds, from Hell, Michigan by way of the Jackson State Penitentiary, Khaos!

Harvey: Well, here comes the #1 Contender for the title you used to hold, Biggs, the Overdrive Championship! He beat three other men last week to earn that right!

Biggs: Don't get me wrong, Khaos is a dangerous competitor. Heck, he broke my freakin' arm. But at the end of the day, he couldn't beat me for the belt, and he hasn't shown me anything that would suggest he'll be able to beat Johnny Rebel for the Overdrive Champion.

Chase: I don't know, Biggs! He may not have been able to beat you, but after how impressive he was last week, Johnny Rebel better keep an eye on him!

Khaos makes his way towards the ring ignoring the cheers and jeers being launched at him by the fans. His focus is on one thing only, the ring and the damage he is about to inflict inside of it. Once he reaches ringside he climbs onto the apron using the steel ring steps and wipes his feet on the apron as a sign of respect for the business before entering the squared circle between the top and middle ropes. Slowly he walks to his corner and leans against the turnbuckles awaiting the sounding of the bell.

“Shooting Star” by Black Stone Cherry begins to play as the fans cheer loudly. C.J. Gates quickly makes his way out of the back wearing his trademark cowboy hat and “Go Big or Go Home” T-shirt. He bounces around at the entrance a bit before moving towards the ring, bouncing to the beat.

Paige: And his opponent, weighing in at 215 pounds, from Fargo, North Dakota, C.J. Gates!

Harvey: And here comes your opponent at Shockwave, C.J. Gates! He's looking to gain some momentum heading into the title match by scoring a big win here tonight!

Biggs: I'll be honest, there's a small part of me that is rooting for C.J. to pull it out here tonight. I mean, if he gets beaten by Khaos here, it would hurt the bankability of our upcoming match. Now don't get me wrong, I'd love to see him humiliated here tonight by Khaos, but I also want to get paid well.

Chase: Darn straight!

Gates reaches the ring and slides in under the bottom rope before springing to his feet, climbing the nearest turnbuckle and raising his arms in the air. He climbs back down and removes his cowboy hat and carefully hands it off, before removing his t-shirt. C.J. glares at Biggs a bit, which gives Khaos the opening to jump him from behind! The ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

C.J. Gates vs. Khaos

[/u]

Biggs: Keep your eyes on the prize, C.J.!

Chase: C.J. took his eyes off of Khaos there, and it cost him big time!

Khaos is just pummeling C.J. from behind, beating him into the corner! He has C.J.'s chest up against the turnbuckle, continuing to club him with his fists and forearms before pulling him out of the the corner and performing a German Suplex! Khaos is keeping the pressure up, getting back to his feet, and pulling off a series of hard Rib Kicks, before nailing C.J. with a Hard Stomp to the sternum! Khaos keeps it up, stomping C.J. more and more before finishing off with a Knee Drop to the Head! He goes for a quick cover

Kick out from C.J.! The big man is undettered, pulling C.J. back up, giving him an Overhead Belly to Belly Suplex! C.J. lands on his feet behind Khaos, and as the big man turns around, he gets caught with a Dropkick that sends him stumbling back into the ropes! C.J. is quick to run over and nail him with a Spinning Heel Kick, which sends Khaos spilling from the ring! The fans are cheering for C.J. at full boar as C.J. waits for Khaos to start to make his way up, taking him right back down with a Vaulting Body Press! C.J. pops up and slaps fives with the fans in the front row as he's getting fired up!

Harvey: C.J. is taking a moment to connect with his fans here!

Chase: This is stupid of C.J.! He's got to keep the pressure on Khaos![/color[

Biggs: I agree with you, Johnny! This is a perfect example of C.J.'s hubris! He talks down to me about cheating, but the fact is, he's showboating right now! One's just as disrespectful to your opponent as the other!

C.J. turns his attention back to his opponent, who's beginning to make his way back up. By this point, the ref is to the count of five as Gates rushes in and takes Khaos back down with a Hurricarana on the outside! This draws a loud reaction from the fans, and C.J. quickly rolls back into the ring to break the count. He heads right back out, and begins to pull Khaos up by the head, not wanting to settle for a count out victory, but the big man shoves him hard, sending him crashing back first into the ring apron! Khaos then rushes in and nails him with a Yakuza Kick! C.J. crumples to the floor, and Khaos uses this opening to go to town on C.J., stomping him some more! By the time the ref is to the count of eight, Khaos yanks C.J. back up and rolls him into the ring, sliding back in just in time to avoid the count out. By this point, “The Natural Born Killer” pulls C.J. back up, and gives him a hard Headbutt that sends the cowboy businessman back down to the mat! Khaos then mockingly places one boot on the chest of C.J., not even registering a one count! This only serves to make Khaos more angry, and he mounts C.J., unloading a series of of thundering, hammerlike punches that appear to be knocking C.J. silly! The ref checks to make sure that C.J. isn't knocked out, and he isn't, getting his hands up to defend himself!

Harvey: It's so hard to get out of this position when your opponent outweighs you by 60 pounds!

Chase: Biggs, when Khaos got you in this kind of a position, what did you do to counter it!

Biggs: You just hope that he'll let up long enough for you to think of some sort of counter! This man is a monster!

Khaos continues to unload on C.J., trying to break through his defenses, and has some success with it. As C.J. appears to be dazed, “The Natural Born Killer” decides that he wants to try and make C.J. submit, so he dismounts, rolls C.J. onto his back, and attempts to lock on the Fujiwara Armbar! C.J. wriggles out before Khaos can get the hold locked in, and rolls back, creating some distance between himself and the larger competitor. Khaos charges in as C.J. makes his way to his feet, and C.J. dodges a hard knee before popping up and Drop Kicking Khaos right in the back! The force of the Drop Kick sends Khaos crashing chest first into the turnbuckle, and C.J. gets behind him, pummeling him with lefts and rights, before taking a few steps back and running in for a Body Splash to the back of Khaos! As the big man is slightly dazed, C.J. uses all of his strength to get Khaos seated up on the top rope facing out towards the crowd, and steps out of the ring, climbing the turnbuckle from the outside! He then bounces Khaos' head off the ringpost before pulling off a Sunset Flip off the top, pinning Khaos' shoulders to the mat

Kick out from Khaos!

Harvey: A great move by C.J. there! One that almost won him the match!

Biggs: That's the key word, almost! And I got a feeling at Shockwave, that's the best C.J.'s going to be able to muster against me, that is being almost able to beat me for my title!

Chase: That's right! C.J. may be good! Heck, he may even be great, but he's not as great as you, Biggs!

Harvey: Oh please, Johnny. You're just saying that to get on Biggs' good side!

C.J. knows that he has to keep the pressure up to prevent the big man from physically dominating him, so C.J. is right in there, stomping a mudhold in Khaos. He grabs a hold of the top rope, hops up, springing off the second rope to nail Khaos with a Springing Knee Drop to the Face! As Khaos rolls around the mat in pain, C.J. is quick to perch upon the top rope, and as “The Natural Born Killer” makes his way up, holding his face in pain, C.J. jumps off, clutching Khaos' head, and spiking it into the mat with a Tornado DDT! C.J. then pulls off a Standing Dropsault to splash onto Khaos, and goes for a cover

Khaos gets his shoulder up! C.J. just keeps focused, taking a few steps back again, motioning for Khaos to rise. As the larger athlete obliges, C.J. runs in, going for a Shining Wizard, which Khaos ducks! Khaos is up in a flash and pulls C.J. in for an Arm Trap Suplex, tossing C.J. hard into the mat!

Chase: Just like that, Khaos is back into this contest!

Harvey: This could be a real turning point in the match! How C.J. responds here could be a huge factor in determining the outcome!

Biggs: That's why these matches are wrestled! On paper, it should stand to reason that the #1 Contender for the Undisputed Championship should be able to have his way with the #1 Contender for the Overdrive Championship, but that's not the match we're seeing here tonight! Khaos has been utilizing his strengths, and has stayed competitive with C.J. here tonight! Either way, C.J. won't be leaving this match unscathed, and I love it!

Winner: CJ Gates[/center]

Gates lets go of the roll up and is quick to his feet as the referee moves over to raise his arm.

Harvey: He did it! Even though Biggs tried to cost him the match, he still pulled out the win!

Biggs kicks the apron in frustration as Khaos rolls to the far outside. Gates' arm is being raised by the referee as Biggs slides into the ring behind him, raising his title belt up.

Chase: This doesn't look good for C.J.

Biggs rushes in for the attack, but C.J. sees it just in time and moves out of the way and Biggs hits the referee with the Undisputed title.

Harvey: And there goes the referee!

Biggs looks frustrated that he hit the referee and turns around in time to find C.J. Gates rushing towards him and hitting him with a spinning heel kick. Biggs falls to the mat and drops the Undisputed title as he does. Gates stays on him though and as Biggs gets back up to his feet, Gates grabs him and hooks him up for a double arm DDT.

Chase: Could be looking at the Stamp of Approval!

Before Gates can hit it, Biggs manages to wriggle his way out of the hold, but as he steps away, Gates trips him up slightly, causing Biggs to spin and tumble through the ropes and to the outside.

Harvey: Not exactly the most elegant of exits from the ring for the Undisputed champion.

Biggs is quick to his feet and slams his hands down on the apron in frustration. Gates remains in the ring, smirking as Biggs shakes his head, shouting at Gates. C.J. then stoops down and picks up the APW Undisputed title, holding it in his hands with a smile on his face. He looks out at the fans who are cheering loudly, before he looks down at Biggs and then raises the Undisputed title high in the air.

Chase: Could this be a sign of things to come at Shockwave?

The fans are still cheering as Gates then climbs the turnbuckle still holding the title high in the air, staring down Biggs, who is shaking his head and saying "not going to happen, buddy."

Chase: Biggs doesn't seem too pleased.

Harvey: I can't wait to see what happens next week, Johnny.

The show closes as Gates continues to hold the title high in the air in front of the cheering fans while Biggs throws a mini-tantrum on the outside of the ring.
