Overdrive - Stockholm, Sweden (09/22/11)

[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 a month away from One Night in Hell and after last week, the PVP is shaping up, and I expect the same for tonight

Harvey: We have a blockbuster main event here tonight

Chase: That‘s right Darren, tonight for the first time ever, we will see Kurt Noble take on Biggs

Harvey: What a match that should be. And I‘m sure we can expect CJ Gates and Johnny Rebel to keep a close eye on that!

Chase: Hold on a second, who‘s that coming out right now?

The camera pans over to the stage area where ASP, Ebirah, and Branden Harvey are walking down the ramp. There’s no music or video playing, they look as if they are breaking a scripted format. The men roll into the ring, and ASP has a microphone in hand. ASP begins talking with Ebirah and Harvey standing behind him. He says in a mockingly voice:

ASP: Uhh, where’s the theme music? Gosh, they didn’t even have a video playing. What am I suppose to look at while they are walking? Am I suppose to look at the wrestlers? I didn’t have anything to occupy my attention while nothing was happening. No bright lights, no music to listen to… Just nothing was going on. They weren’t even playing Breaking Benjamin.

A small “Noble” chant breaks out at the mention of Kurt Noble’s theme music.

ASP: Oh quiet down, you can go five minutes without seeing crippled folk.

Branden Harvey is seen laughing behind ASP at that remark, although Ebirah is staying serious.

ASP: Let me get down to business. I’m not much for conspiracy theories, but Branden here was making sense to me. You see, APW gives off this vibe, it’s fake, but it’s a vibe none the less. The vibe is that you earn your stripes, you work yourself up to the top, everyone starts at the same level! It sounds fair, and if that’s the way things worked, well… It would be wonderful! But no, the APW that you see, is not real. The thing is, you can see how fake it all is! Look at the other new Mega Stars we have Me, oh, and Branden, the guy I tore apart, his name was Adam Young, but I don’t blame you for not remembering his name. Let’s continue, Adam Young, Me, Ebirah is still new… Who am I forgetting? Gee wiz, who was that guy that started the exact same night as me? Oh, that’s right! Kurt Noble! The man who is already main eventing Over Drive. What has he really done? I’m not meaning all of the favors he has accepted from President Jeff, I’m asking what has he done to deserve all of the favors Jeff has given him? Kurt Noble shows up, and all of the wrestlers tell me that I better start hiding the pain killers that I have for a rainy day, or else “someone” is going to “borrow” them. Can you really argue with me about the fairness of APW? Noble and I is a perfect example of the corruption in APW. I don’t know what the differences are between Noble and I, does he have a nicer smile? A firmer handshake that Jeff likes? No, it’s all about who can kiss Jeff’s ass better! I honestly tried things the honest way. I was going to do things the way I thought should be done. Noble and I started the same night, but even then things were way out of order. I was on a dark match, Noble is a special guest referee for the main event, and is able to screw it all up! It didn’t stop there. The man I defeated in the dark match ends up in the main event the following week! Who did I get stuck with that night? A damn Texan! You can ignore the facts all you want, it doesn’t make it false. The facts are not lying. You can see the corruption in each and every match! And I for one don’t have to take it, but I’m not going to face the corruption alone, oh no… I am with these two men that aren’t going to take things laying down either.

ASP looks back at Ebirah and Branden, smiles and nods his head at them, showing his gratitude for being able to join them. He faces the crowd again.

ASP: Branden here can sniff out corruption from a mile away. You can just imagine how he acts when we are at the Nations Capital. Branden saw the rise of Noble, and then he saw where I was being stuck at. Jeff might not see the promise in me, but Branden sure as hell saw every bit of talent that I have. And he is the kind of man that doesn’t let talent waste away at the level of Mr. Dangerous or Adam Young. No, sooner or later, I will catch up to Kurt Noble even if Jeff doesn’t want me to embarrass his golden boy. Or maybe I’m not the one who will overtake Kurt Noble, you do know what they say about Kurt Noble, right? What do Michael Jackson and Kurt Noble have in common? Both have a ten year old crack addiction!

The fans let out a “ohhh!” at the insult to Kurt Noble. ASP glances over to Ebirah, who is still standing at his spot patiently.

ASP: Well Ebirah, blessed is who sit and wait… Here you go.

ASP hands Ebirah the microphone, and ASP takes his spot next to Branden Harvey.

Ebirah: Before this alliance was formed I had a frank conversation with Branden Harvey backstage. I told him that we don’t diplomats for Christ’s sake. This is Action Packed Wrestling and we need to take action. After a lengthy discussion he saw what I was saying and told me about his faction. I agreed to join thus freeing myself from the bonds of the pathetic Twilight Zone gimmick I was given some time ago. Now I am a part of a group that isn’t here to take shit from anybody. The fact is you should all be getting down on your hands and knees worshipping us before we destroy you. Tonight it all starts with us winning our matches. Mark Mania, you talked a lot of shit when you arrived and haven’t done anything to back it up other than fail more than these so-called fans fail at life. By the time I’m through with you everyone here will realize my true potential. I told you than only through me could you achieve YOUR true potential. You could reach your goals but instead you are going to fail and tonight I’m going to kick your ass all over Stockholm to show everyone here that I am the biggest rising star in this company. My time has come and nobody is going to stop me and the rest of my friends from reaching the top of the wrestling world. Nobody can hold us back any longer. And before I forget, ASP was talking about someone who needs talking about. Kurt Noble, the fact that you’re new here and automatically got put on Team APW over in the CWC makes me sick! It’s the biggest joke in the world and the punch line is that I’ve accomplished more than you here but you get all the hype. You’re the one that these mindless peons are told that they need to pay money to see. I don’t get any attention at all but yet I’ve made a HUGE impact in this company already. Noble, all you care about is money and titles just like Mark Mania. These people deserve a better kind of villain and I’m going to give it to ‘em. What I am is a harbinger of chaos. And chaos is fear. When you create fear and chaos that leads to anarchy. That’s what we plan on creating here in APW…total anarchy. Nobody will be safe, NOBODY. The bottom line of it all is that our time has come. The Reign of Terror will return to the world and people will get hurt. The last time it came around there were beheadings, burnings, total chaos…and we’re going to bring it back. This is dawn of a new age and soon you’ll all see the light.

The crowd boos as Ebirah finishes his sermon of hate and hands the microphone to Branden Harvey.

Branden: These two men know exactly what they are saying. they feel my pain. They were booked in the opening matches tonight. On the bottom of the card. Where was I booked? Oh yeah. I was not booked. The three of us are the future of this business. But President Jeff does not want to see that. I have been in APW for thirteen months and I am not given the time of day around here. Mr. Kurt Noble has been in APW for thirteen minutes and he has been in main event after main event. For what? He lost last week right, ASP?

Branden puts the mic to ASP's lips.

ASP: Yeah. I think he did.

Branden brings the mic back to his own lips.

Branden: That is what I had thought. And yet, he is always in the main events. He is treated like the goose that layed the golden egg. What did I have to do when I wanted a main event match? I had to bludgeon the undeserving contender with a chair and sign my name on his contract. I had to take matters into my own hands. Because President Jeff will not give me the time of day that I deserve. Right, Ebirah?

Branden puts the mic to Ebirah's lips.

Ebirah: The Harbringer of Destruction feels your pain.

Branden brings the mic back to his own lips.

Branden: That is the point of this entire alliance. That is the point of this entire stable. And that will soon be the blight of this entire locker room. Until Ebirah, ASP and I get the recognition we deserve, we are going to turn APW upside down. And not just Overdrive. We will put Asylum down like the dead dog living off the reputation of IWC that it is.

ASP is heard laughing behind Harvey. Ebirah remains serious.

Branden: Ooh. Was I not supposed to say the I word? President Jeff wishes it was dead. I mean, IWC's first show had Branden Harvey in the main event. President Jeff could not have that. So he turned an original show like IWC into a generic second brand of APW.

Branden looks to be in deep thought before continuing.

Branden: We have said all we have set out to say as a group. But, if it is all right with my colleagues, I would like to say something personal for a minute.

Branden looks around at Ebirah and ASP. They both nod their heads. So Branden continues.

Branden: I would like to take this opportunity to address Tyler Graves. For those of you that live in the stone age, which is probably most of you inbred idiots

The crowd boos.

Branden: Tyler Graves has said on Twitter that he is coming to Overdrive tonight to "deal with me' because I offended him or something. And president Jeff can not pass up a chance to try and see me hurt, so he invited Tyler Graves to come. Well, I say to Graves, bring it on. It is not like you are actually going to show up. I have yet to even catch a glimpse of you. But, if you DO make it here, you have the Elite Posse to worry about.

"Rise to It" by KISS plays as the Branden and ASPwalk to the back, mocking and deriding the fans on their way out and Ebirah says in the ring, getting ready for his match

Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Already in the ring, hailing from the Deepest, Darkest La Jolla, California...The Man Known as....EBIRRRAAHHHH!!!!

"This Means War" by Busta Rhymes plays out over the loud speaker as on the jumbo tron a giant video of Mark Mania's career highlights plays. Mark Mania walks out from behind the curtain with his arms in the air.

Paige: And his opponent, coming to the ring first, hailing from Melrose, MA! PLEASE WELCOME MARRRKKK MANNNIAAA!!!


He comes out in a full suit, as he is walking down the ramp he offers arrogant yet charming looks to crowd as he removes the suit coat, tie, and shirt while walking down the ramp and throws them into the crowd. He slides in ring under the bottom rope and lifts his arms to the crowd before entering his corner.

Chase: This could be a decent match, Ebirah is climbing the ranks while Mania is a known name in APW...Who you got Harvey?

Harvey: Whoever wins! I'm all about the winners haha!

Mark Mania Vs Ebirah


The bell sounds off and the two men come in close and begin to trade a few words to each other. Mark Mania shoves Ebirah and Ebirah comes back with a front kick to Mania's knee which drops the veteran to one knee. Ebirah throws a solid knee to Mania's face and puts the veteran on his back. Ebirah tries dropping an elbow into Mark Mania's chest but Mania moves out of the way and gets up to his face and Ebirah follows suite and is up as well, the two finally lock up. Mark Mania dips up under the lock up and switches behind Ebirah and slaps a Sleeper Hold.

Ebirah walks to the ropes and grabs the top rope but places his feet on the bottom ropes and pushes his body back. Ebirah crashes into Mania as they hit the mat but Mania retains the sleeper hold and locks his legs around Ebirah's body, turning the sleeper into a rear naked choke. Ebirah throws back elbows into Mania's sides but the submission hold is held on and Ebirah begins to struggle with it. He pulls and turns, twists and shakes and finally wraps his feet around the nearby bottom rope, the referee breaking the submission hold.

Chase: Almost a submission victory early in the match! Mania is pulling out some tricky moves so far.

Harvey: Ebirah is more violent and violence is a very important trait in this business...

Ebirah and Mania get to their feet, Ebirah attacks with a huge right into Mark Mania's grill. He continues with huge rights until Mania blocks one and then Ebirah drops Mania with a leaping downward elbow down the center of his forehead. The thunderous elbow leaves Mania's forehead red and beginning to thicken swollen quickly. As Ebirah steps over Mania, the APW veteran grabs Ebriah at the front of his tights and pulls him over and sends the masked man through the ropes to the outside of the ring.

The referee begins the 10 count with Ebirah outside. (1) Mania gets up but stumbles a bit, maybe a little concussed from the stiff downward elbow. (2) He gets his balance and steps outside the ropes and walks along the apron of the ring. The referee starts the count over as Ebirah gets up and Mark Mania leaps off and cracks Ebirah with his own downward elbow that catches Ebirah in the top of the dome. (1) Blood begins to flow massively from Ebirah's head and the blood rolls down out the bottom of his mask.

Harvey: See, when you give you get in return. What a way to one up Ebirah!

Chase: I would guess Mania being the heavier guy he would throw a better elbow but DAMN! Can I say damn? Who cares!!

Harvey: I think if others can curse backstage why can't we? Shit...Damn...Hell....Fu--

Chase: Let's watch the match and not make this George Carlin's 7 Dirty Words alright?

(4) Mark Mania moves a bit away from Ebirah and pulls up the mats at ringside to bare the concrete floor. He heads back to Ebirah and pulls the bloodied masked man up to his, drills him in the face with a quick fist before walking him over to the bare concrete floor. Mark Mania positions Ebirah in between his legs and lifts him up for a Piledriver but Ebirah falls back to his feet and lifts up Mania but keeps him upside down on Ebirah's shoulder and back. (5) Ebirah grabs back at Mania's head and takes a few steps and drops him into the concrete with a Emerald Fusion like move and the fans blow up with excitement!

Chase: Oh My Lord, he could have Killed him!!

Harvey: Probably wished he was dead...That F'N hurt!!

Chase: F'N? Serious?

Both men lay on the ground hurting, blood still pouring from Ebirah's head and he wipes out his eye sockets of the mask and starts to get up. (6) Mark Mania still isn't moving as Ebirah gets to his feet and Ebirah kicks Mania in the stomach as he lays on his side. The referee has gotten to the count of 7 and Ebirah rolls into the ring to prevent himself from being counted out. Mark Mania uses the ring to help him get up and he pulls himself up into the ring but is quickly met with a kneedrop to the back of his neck. Ebriah gets back up and drags Mark Mania in the center of the ring, rolls him over and makes the pin attempt.

Th..KICKOUT!!

Chase: So close!!

Ebriah pulls Mania up to his feet and quickly snaps him over with a Hurricanrana that puts Mark Mania right back onto the ring canvas. Ebirah is smiling despite his blood stained teeth and blood now drying up on his mask. He once again lifts up Mark Mania but this time Mania is quick to respond. He lays into Ebirah a few times in the gut and then drops the masked man with a DDT that shakes the ring. Ebirah bounces and flips onto his back as Mania tries to find a second wind and begins to get up to his feet. Mania using the ropes to gain balance gets up and step walks over Ebriah's face, grinding his boot into the face behind the mask. Mania pulls Ebirah up using his mask to grab on and Mark Mania whips Ebirah into the ropes across the ring. As Ebirah comes back, Mania kicks him in the midsection and quickly executes a Fisherman Suplex and hooks the leg for a pin attempt.

Kickout..

Mania doesn't look very surprised at the kickout. He returns to his feet and steps over to the turnbuckle and lifts himself up onto the second ropes. He dives off with an elbow and plants it right into Ebirah's chest. Mania gets up in a rush, excited and ready to push the pace a bit. He bounces off the ropes as Ebirah slowly climbs to his feet and Mania ducks a weak attempted clothesline and grabs his opponent from behind, lifting him and tossing him with a release German Suplex. Ebirah bounces and flops into the mat and Mark Mania is up again and roaring out to the live audience.

Harvey: I think Mark Mania is ready to end this match! I see it in his eyes...This could be it!

Chase: What an opening bout this has been! We just started the show!!

As Mark Mania grabs the back of Ebirah's mask as he gets to his feet, Ebirah breaks away from Mania's grasp and spits his Green Mist into Mania's eyes, turning his entire face with green liquid. Mania stumbles back wiping away at his face, blinded by the mist. Ebirah grabs Mania and puts him through 3 Suplexes called "Three Amigos" and then Ebirah is the one in control of the match. Quickly Ebirah drags Mania over towards the ropes and signals that he is going high risk and climbs to the very top turnbuckle and is standing up there looking down at his opponent. Ebirah jumps off hitting a gainer and coming down hard into Mania's mid section with his "Universal Destruction" Shooting Star Press, Ebirah hooks the leg as the referee drops down for the pinfall.

Winner: Ebirah

Ebirah rolls off of Mark Mania and the referee checks on both competitors as Ebirah gets up to his feet for the final time. The referee raises his arm in victory as his music hits.[/color]

Harvey: Things aren't looking good for Mark Mania, Since his return, his only victory was over Branden Harvey

Chase: Looks like Mark Mania may have lost his touch

Ebirah continues to celebrate as we go to commercial

[President Jeff]

APW Overdrive comes back from a commercial break, with Biggs standing in the ring. The arena is completely dark, and there's a spotlight shining directly on the arrogant Mega Star. Biggs is clad in a white suit with a dark blue shirt and white tie. Blue feathers adorn the shoulders of his suit jacket. There's a ladder set up behind the former APW Undisputed Champion, and he looks at it for a bit before beginning to speak. Biggs' tone is quite somber.

Biggs: Thirty-One days from now, I will face off against C.J. Gates in a Ladder Match with the APW Undisputed Championship on the line. He is going in as the champion, I, the challenger. The thing about a ladder match is, is that is one of the most unpredictable matches in all of professional wrestling. Because in a ladder match, victory is not just dependent on your skill, but also you luck. There's so many unknown factors in a ladder match, so many things that can go wrong, that it's easy to see why they're such a big deal. A ladder match is so fundamentally different from any other match type that you really have to go in with a different mindset, a different paradigm of how to achieve victory if you are to have any hope of winning. Under normal circumstances, to win a match, you merely have to beat your opponent to the point where you can keep his or her shoulders pinned to the mat for three seconds, or force them to give up. But those conditions get thrown right out the window with a Ladder Match. Because not only do submissions not count, but you have be able to beat your opponent down enough to where they cannot stop you from climbing the ladder to reach up and claim whatever happens to be hanging above the ring. You have to be able to beat your opponent down to the point where they'll be out a good twenty to thirty seconds at least, and that's just to give you enough time to get to the top of the ladder. You have to beat them down to the point where they can't get up and shove the ladder out from beneath you, or reach up, grab a hold of your leg, and yank you right down. The point I'm trying to make is that you don't go into a Ladder Match expecting to not come out worse for wear.

And that's just talking about the damage your opponent will try to inflict on you, and you on them. The fact is, in a ladder match, it is virtually guaranteed that those involved will take big falls, upwards of 10 or 20 feet. And contrary to popular belief, this ring ain't soft.

Biggs jumps up slightly to make the ring shake a bit to illustrate his point.

Biggs: Some people have tried ignorantly to compare falling in the ring like falling onto a trampoline. They say it has spring in it, that it has enough give to where it shouldn't hurt the wrestlers, but they couldn't be more wrong. Because, this ring that I'm standing in, all it is is an 18 foot by 18 foot piece of canvas pulled over plywood. And while the ring has a little bit of give, it has to be tough enough to handle the weight of upwards of 30 men at one time, and anything that tough doesn't have the luxury of being soft. Studies have been shown that the average fall in a wrestling ring has the same impact on a wrestler's back as a five-mile-per-hour car crash, and while this might not sound like that big of a deal, over time, it adds up. And that's just the normal fall from a hard punch, let alone getting slammed into the canvas, and certainly let alone falling from atop the ladder. It kind of makes you wonder why anybody would be crazy enough to fight somebody else in a Ladder Match.

Biggs makes his way to the ladder, and begins to slowly climb it, stepping onto the first rung, while continuing the speak into the microphone.

Biggs: Now I can't speak for anyone else, but I can certainly speak for myself. The way I see it, me fighting C.J. Gates in a Ladder Match for what is rightfully my APW Undisputed Championship is actually a great allegory for where I stand in APW right now, and where I should be.

Biggs makes his way up another rung.

Biggs: When I first arrived here in APW, I started where everybody else did, at the bottom of the ladder. I had to work my way up and earn everything I have achieved in the two-and-a-half years I've been here. First, I earned the Overdrive Championship by defeating Shadow at Shockwave 2009, winning my first title here in APW!

He takes another step up.

Biggs: Then I defeated President Jeff to become the General Manager of Overdrive for the better part of seven months, leading Overdrive to an era of prosperity and popularity that it has struggled to experience since!

Biggs climbs up to the next rung.

Biggs: My ascent continued as I defeated Pence Weatherlight to become the Overdrive Champion for a record three times. I went on to have the single greatest Overdrive Title reign in APW History, successfully defending my title in seven matches leading up to RassleMania, and establishing my greatness even more by defeating four other men in a Scramble Match to retain the Overdrive Title.

Biggs takes two steps up. He's roughly two-thirds of the way up the ladder by this point.

Biggs: And then, this past July, at Test for the Best, I fought in the biggest match of my career, defeating “Level-One” Lester Only to secure my first ever APW Undisputed Championship!

At this point, Biggs climbs all the way up the ladder, and positions himself to where he takes a seat at the top of the ladder. The spot light is still shining brightly down on Biggs as he begins to speak again.

Biggs: I had reached the top of the mountain, I had achieved my goal that I have had since day one here in APW, and that was being the top guy in this company! Being the APW Undisputed Championship was something that I fought for, strived for with every fiber of my being! I did whatever I had to in order to reach the top, and while many of you in the crowd and at home disagreed with my methods, whether you liked it or not, each and everyone of you had to admit that I deserved to be champion!

This comment draws some loud boos from the fans, and a “You suck! You suck!” chant gets going.

Biggs: You all can keep chanting that all you want, the fact is that I am nothing like your mothers!

Biggs flashes his trademark smirk as the fans boo him even more!

Biggs: And the thing is, I still deserve to be champion. C.J. Gates accepting the belt the way he did is tantamount to accepting stolen goods. When he pinned me to the mat at Shockwave, it was because Kurt Noble overstepped his bounds as the guest enforcer, not only clocking me with my own title, but making an unauthorized three-count, declaring C.J. Gates the winner when he had no right to do so! And what's worse, my opponent, C.J., who is supposedly a man of honor, a man of dignity, a man of good moral standing, well, he proved himself to be the opposite of those by deciding the accept the championship as his own under those conditions! The fact of the matter is that I shouldn't have to be fighting for what is rightfully my APW Undisputed Championship in a Ladder Match one month from now in Tokyo, Japan! Quite frankly, it should be around my waist this very moment!

I am willing to put myself through hell to reclaim what is rightfully mine! I am willing to do whatever it takes to bring the APW Undisputed Championship back into my possession! And you know what? There's a small part of me that's looking forward to enduring the pain and agony that will come from the ladder match, because I will know that through it all, when I climb this ladder, rung by rung, and when I unclasp the APW Undisputed Championship Belt from the cord, I will know undoubtedly that I earned my title back! And nobody can dispute that!

Biggs tosses the mic down and continues to sit on top of the ladder as “Spaceman” begins to play.

Harvey: Strong words from Biggs as he prepares for his Ladder Match against C.J. Gates for the Undisputed Title!

Chase: Everything Biggs said is true! He shouldn't have to put his body through the rigors of a Ladder Match just to get back what truly belongs to him!

With that, Overdrive goes to commercial

[President Jeff]

The scene opens backstage where Shane West is standing next to Nathaniel Havok, outside of the Enforcer of Sorrow’s locker-room.

West: Nathaniel, earlier today you and I sat down and did quite an extensive interview that can be seen only on the APW website. However, I’ve asked for this time with you so you can address the fans one more time before you match with Pence Weatherlight this evening.

Havok: There’s nothing to say, really. The bottom line is that I owe Pence one, and I’m going to get the “W” tonight, as his expense! There’s no hiding behind Mark Mania anymore, he’s probably gunning for Pence anyhow!

West: So after giving things some more thought, do you still think that Pence is playing ball for President Jeff?

Havok: Oh, I know that he is. The more that I think about it, the more that it makes sense. He can say that he isn’t all that he wants to, but I believe that he’s talking out of his ass. Look at it this way, do you think that he would be facing me one on one tonight, if he were anyone else? The guy returned to APW two weeks ago, and has lost twice! But Jeff puts him in the ring with the Xtreme Champion? Really? Who has he beaten to rub elbows with me not once, but twice! When I came back, I had to face Jacob Whitehead a magnitude of times before Jeff booked me against anybody else! It just doesn’t make sense, Shane! Therefore tonight, when I step into that ring, I’m going to show Jeff exactly what his fate will eventually be. Pence Weatherlight, you are nothing more than a pawn in this game. You mean nothing, your well-being means nothing, and your career means even less! Yeah, you beat me a long time ago! But now Pence, I RUN THIS <beep>! So it’s time to take a backseat to the greatest professional wrestler to even walk God’s green earth, Nathaniel <beep>ing Havok!

West: Thank God for the guys in the truck, I don’t think you’re allowed to talk like that on television!

Havok: Do you think that I give a rats ass, Shane? What’s Jeff going to do, silence me yet again? Why not, right? It wouldn’t be the first, or the second time for that matter! Here’s the way I see it, since Jeff isn’t allowed to fire me per my contract stipulations, and he’s already told me that once my contract expires he’s not resigning me, I can say anything I <Beep>ing want to! <Beep>, <Beepedy>, <Beep>, <beep>, Beep> See, nothing can be done! I’m untouchable, Shane West!

West: Well, I would have to say that once you get in the ring tonight, you wont be.

Havok: Do you really think that Pence Weatherlight concerns me? Pence Weatherlight should be called Mr. Diet, because he’s Pence Weatherlight, with only half the charisma and talent! His APW career is coming to a close, and I’ll shut the book on his story tonight! After the evening is over, there will be yet another APW superstar, to retire at the hands of the Enforcer of Sorrow. Havok has spoken.

Nathaniel walks back into his locker room, leaving West alone with the cameraman.

West: Well you heard it here ladies and gentlemen, Nathaniel Havok looks ready!

We go back to ringside

Paige: The next match is scheduled for one fall.

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.

Paige: Introducing first, hailing from San Antonio, Texas and weighing in at 205 lbs....ZACHARY RODELL!

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.

Harvey: Zachary Rodell has had quite an impressive start to his APW career, and looks to be making more of a name for himself each and every week.

Chase: He definitely does, but the question will always be whether or not he can keep it up.

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.

Paige: And his opponent, from Kalamazoo, Michigan and weighing in at 248 lbs...A..S...P!

"Joker and the Thief" is played on the PA system. After the beginning intro of the song is done, ASP appears on the stage, matching the rhythm of the beat of the song with his steps. His head bobbing with the beat of the song as well. He reaches the ring apron, and grabs the middle rope to pull himself into the ring. ASP goes to the lower left and the upper right rings posts and climbs onto the second turnbuckle and rises his ropes to the delight of the crowd, and his music begins to quiet down as he waits in the corner of the ring.

Harvey: Last week we saw ASP, Branden Harvey and Ebirah join forces at the end of their match.

Chase: You mean after they beat each other up, right?

Zachary Rodell vs. ASP


The bell rings and the two men meet in the center and tie up, with ASP using his size advantage to get the early headlock. He wrenches on it and fires a few fists into the head of Rodell before letting him go and whipping him into the ropes. Rodell ducks under a clothesline and comes back and a knee to the gut, and then bounces off the ropes again to take him down, but ASP is back to a vertical base and he takes Rodell down with a clothesline.

Harvey: ASP using his larger size to his advantage.

Chase: It doesn't look good for Rodell.

ASP hauls Rodell up and tosses him into the corner, driving some knees in after. He then whips Rodell into the opposite corner and charges in after, but Rodell grabs the ropes and floats over ASP, only to have ASP catch him on his shoulder! Rodell wiggles his way down the back, hooking ASP's head and dropping him with a quick reverse DDT!

Harvey: Great counter by Rodell there.

Rodell is up quickly and stomps on ASP's head a few times before running into the ropes and coming back with a quick dropkick. Zachary gets up again and brings ASP into a sitting position before bouncing off the ropes looking for a soccer kick, but ASP drops down onto his back! Rodell whiffs, giving ASP enough time to stand up and drop the smaller Megastar with a reverse neckbreaker. He follows it up with a pinfall.

Kick out!

Harvey: ASP tried for the early pinfall, but didn't get the three.

Chase: Rodell might be smaller, but he's not that easy to beat.

ASP gets up shaking his head and hauls Rodell up with him. He whips Zachary into the ropes and on the rebound he looks for a back body drop, but Rodell stops short and grabs ASP's head for a swinging neckbreaker, but ASP reverses THAT attempt, and lifts Rodell up and turning it into a spinebuster! Instead of pinning, ASP locks in a figure four arm lock!

Harvey: ASP trying to end it here.

Chase: If Rodell's not careful, this could leave a long lasting impression.

ASP continues to wrench on the hold as Rodell moves his way toward the ropes. ASP pulls back looking for Rodell to submit, but Rodell gets his foot on the rope and the referee calls for the hold. ASP holds it in a bit longer, as the referee counts him down, and releases it at three. He is slow to his feet as Rodell holds his arm in pain. ASP picks his opponent up and drives some forearms into his head before kicking him in the gut and dropping him with a vicious DDT. ASP goes for a pinfall.

Chase: Still not enough.

Harvey: Rodell's got heart, that's for sure.

ASP glares at the referee and then turns his attention back to Rodell, who is slowly making his way to his feet with the ropes. ASP runs in, but Rodell pulls down the top rope and ASP spills to the outside. Rodell gets up to his feet with the fans cheering him on and then looks down at ASP before grabbing the top rope and vaulting himself to the outside, taking a rising ASP down.

Harvey: Rodell's taking things to the outside.

ASP is quick to his feet and as ASP gets up, Rodell hits him with a spinning back fist, staggering him into the apron. The referee is at a count of four as Rodell rolls inside the ring and then runs off the far ropes and comes back hitting a baseball slide to the back of ASP's head sending him into the barricade! Rodell gets up and is fired up as the referee continues to count ASP out. Rodell climbs out of the ring and grabs ASP rolling him into the ring before following in himself.

Chase: Seems Rodell isn't happy winning by a count out.

Rodell lines up ASP as he's getting up and then charges in, nailing him with a well placed shining wizard. ASP falls to the mat and Rodell covers him.

Kick out!

Rodell is up and he signals for the end. He lines ASP up again and as the bigger man gets to his feet Rodell moves in.

Harvey: This could be the Sanguine Kiss!

Sure enough, Rodell leaps up for the double knee facebreaker, but ASP manages to counter it and drops Rodell to the mat on his back. ASP goes to drop an elbow, but Rodell rolls out of the way and ASP hits the mat. He's quick to his feet though, and Rodell hits him with a dropkick. ASP is leaning against the ropes as Rodell gets up and ASP hits him with a huge clothesline nearly taking him out of his boots.

Harvey: It looks like ASP means business.

ASP hauls Rodell back up and whips him into the ropes, catching him in a sleeper hold on the way back. ASP wrenches in on it, cinching it in tight as Rodell begins to fade. He drops down to one knee as ASP smirks in satisfaction. The referee checks to see if Rodell wants to submit, but he shouts no, and ASP tightens his hold. Rodell flails his arms around the head of ASP before grabbing hold and dropping him with a huge jawbreaker.

ASP recoils as Rodell is slow to get up, but he does and ducks under an ASP attack, and fires back with some kicks to the legs of the larger man. He drops down to a knee and fires up an uppercut, sending ASP staggering. Rodell bounces off the ropes and on the rebound, tries for a shining wizard, but ASP catches him and drops him with a modified capture suplex.

Chase: Rodell got ahead of himself, and ASP made him pay.

ASP is quick on the attack, picking Rodell up and locking in a cobra clutch. He goes to lift him for a slam, but Rodell manages to get his legs around ASP's to block it and also manages to kick out a knee. ASP loosens his hold and Rodell slips out, firing a few elbows into the gut ot ASP, who swings at Rodell, but the smaller man drops down and takes out both of ASP's legs with a double leg sweep.

Harvey: Looks like Rodell is coming back.

Rodell is quickly up to his feet, as ASP struggles to his. Rodell moves in for a swinging neck breaker, but ASP powers out and grabs Rodell from behind. He turns and goes to throw him for a German suplex, but Rodell manages to land on his feet. ASP gets up, as Rodell moves in and jumps up for the double knee facebreaker, but ASP manages to grab Rodell and drive him down with a powerbomb. He then rolls Rodell over and locks in an STF.

Harvey: This could be it for Rodell!

ASP pulls back on the STF as Rodell tries to fight it. He tries to pull himself to the ropes, but ASP is heavier and weighing him down. He tries one last time to grab the bottom rope, but Rodell can't reach and is forced to tap out!

Winner: A...S...P

ASP holds onto the hold a bit longer as Rodell continues to tap out.

Harvey: ASP has the match won, but he's still got the hold.

Chase: Thats another win for the Elite Posse tonight.

Eventually he lets go and stands up as the referee raises his arm. ASP celebrates his victory as we go to commercial

Winner and #1 Contender for the Tag Titles: The Red Shield Mafia

[President Jeff]

The scene opens up backstage where the APW Undisputed champion C.J. Gates can be seen pacing back and forth in his locker room, the Undisputed title around his waist, as the fans in the arena cheer. He is in front of a large television monitor that is paused, showing the number one contender Biggs sitting at the top of the ladder, a smirk on his face. Gates stops and looks at the monitor before nodding his head.

C.J. Gates: You know, Biggs, a lot of what you said, I completely agree with. When we both came into APW, we had to start from that bottom rung and sweat it out until we finally got our break. We never had the pedigree to start at the top. We never got out first taste of APW fame until we had paid our dues and made sure that we deserved it. As I said before, your Overdrive title reigns was one of the more dominant that this federation has seen. Turning aside the Contourage like you did, masterful.

You're also right about a ladder match being completely unpredictable. Someone could be the best technical wrestler in the world, but would fail in a match like this if he wasn't capable of putting his opponent out long enough to get the title at the top of the ladder. Someone could be the most sadistic son of a bitch going, but could fail in the match because they weren't capable of keeping themselves in good enough condition throughout. Completely unpredictable.

C.J. Gates turns to face the camera, Biggs still smiling behind him.

C.J. Gates: Anything can happen. Anything, such as being attacked by everyone that you have wronged in the past few months. You were there two weeks ago, Biggs, you saw the hate that Chris Cyrus, Pence Weatherlight and Kurt Noble have for you. What's to say that they won't get involved in the match this week, much like Kurt Noble did at Shockwave? Because that's basically what you've set yourself up for. You've put yourself in an environment where the rules are thrown out the window, and, like you said, anything can, and most likely will happen.

Enter karma.

But that is about all that I agree with you on, Biggs. Maybe it's because you like to spend all of your free time trying to paint me as the bad guy. Maybe it's because you spend every waking moment trying to figure out how you can one up me to make me look like the bad guy. But you and I both know, Biggs, that those fans know the truth and those fans will be behind me each and every time I step out from the back. You blame me for knocking you off the top of the proverbial ladder, yet you take no consideration as to how you might have affected those before you. The Lester Only's that you cheated out of their rightful titles, for example. But it's fine, right? Because you openly acknowledge the fact that you lie, cheat and screw people?

Gates laughs as he pushes his cowboy hat up slightly so his face is more visible.

C.J. Gates: By that definition, Biggs, if you openly admitted to cheating on your wife, it would be fine, right? As long as you can say that, yeah, you did it, then it won't be a big issue, right?

Gates shakes his head with a smile on his face.

C.J. Gates: You just need to accept the facts, Biggs. At Shockwave, you were not the better man, because a match isn't all about having the most feathers on your jacket or having the best entrance to the ring. You have to out wrestle your opponents, out think your opponents, out maneuver your opponents, and be prepared for the unexpected that you should have expected. Because really, you feign anger at Kurt Noble for getting involved, even though you lured him into the ring.

Gates turns to look at the television.

C.J. Gates: Were you worried that you were going to be thrown from the top of the ladder?

Because everything that happened in that match is on your head. I accepted the title, yes, because the count that Noble made was an official count and this is MY title. I mean, if it wasn't official, then I wouldn't be the champion now, would I? If Jeff hadn't given Noble the ability to make a three count in the event that the referee was unavailable, then I wouldn't have this title around my waist. Yet I do.

And at One Night in Hell, Biggs, I am going to prove it all over again. I am going to prove that even with you choosing the stipulation, I will still come out on top. I will prove to be just as unpredictable as anyone else, and I will show that what happened at Shockwave, with yours truly walking out of Minnesota with the Undisputed title, was no fluke.

I have honor and I don't have to rely on cheating. And above all else, I am fighting not only for myself, but for each and every one of the APW faithful that are pushing me to succeed. The faithful that I have never given a reason to doubt my abilities and my integrity.

He turns back to the camera and smiles.

C.J. Gates: In thirty-one days Biggs, it will be time to go big or go home.

Gates turns and steps toward the television, turning it off, sending the television monitor to black as the scene cuts back to ringside.


Paige: The following match-up is a singles match, scheduled for one-fall!

'Slit My Wrist' hits on the PA system as purple and 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: Introducing first, weighing in at 242 pounds, and hailing from Indianapolis, Indiana… “The Suicidal Satanist” Nathaniel Havok!

The Titantron bursts to static as the lights all dim down and begin to flash different colors at random, the fans turn their eyes to the entrance ramp, as all the light go out. A voice comes out over the speakers saying "Baby don't fear the Reaper." and then the lights come on. "Everything" by Pillar hits the speakers now and the lights begin to flicker red, white, and blue. The fans all begin to cheer as Pence emerges on to the Entrance ramp wearing a red, white, and blue vest with a pair of black and blue shorts, he salutes the fans who all begin to chant "Mr. Main Event". Pence makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands, and taking poses so that the fans can take pictures of him. He finally makes it into the ring and then jumps up on to one of the turnbuckles and flexes. He then jumps down and repeats the process on the opposite sides turnbuckle, before finally jumping down, and going to the middle, he begins to pace about the ring, facing Havok.

Paige: And introducing his opponent, weighing in at 250 pounds, and hailing from Hershey, Pennsylvania… Pence Weatherlight!

Nathaniel Havok vs. Pence Weatherlight

The bell rings, as Havok and Weatherlight stare one another down, an obvious amount of tension brewing between them. They waste no time, and lock-up, but Pence gains the advantage, pushing Havok against the ropes. Havok moves alongside them, and the two men trade positions of strength, until eventually they’re in the middle of the ring, testing who really is the stronger man. Havok breaks away, getting a “boo” from the crowd! Weatherlight nods his head accordingly, yelling “they know where it’s at!” Havok snarls, and the two lock up once more. However, Weatherlight quickly breaks it up, slamming Havok right in the jaw with a hard right, followed by a knee to the stomach. He then hits a hard shot on Havok’s neck, sending him down to the canvas. Havok turns to block another shot, but gets *popped* right between the eyes! Weatherlight gets a mixed reaction, but he attempts to not show his displeasure.

Harvey: This fans don’t appear to care for either Havok or Weatherlight after their actions of late!

Chase: They’re both being spoiled babies! Just wrestle the match, and try not to piss anyone okay, mkay?

Weatherlight lifts up Havok, and Irish Whips him, ducking in the process. Havok sees this, and kicks Weatherlight right in the face! As Weatherlight backs up in pain, Havok runs off the ropes, and hits him with a spinning wheel kick! Havok stands over Weatherlight, and as he tries to get up, Havok yells “Whos’ the better man now?” and runs off the ropes, nailing Weatherlight with a shining wizard! Havok then makes a quick pin…

Kickout by Pence Weatherlight!

Havok rolls over, and begins to hammer on Weatherlight with closed fists. He then slams his head against the mat, nearly tanking out some hair in the process. Havok stands up, the boos a plenty, and waits for Weatherlight to stand up. He does, and tries to grab Weatherlight for the Judgment Day (RKO), but Weatherlight pushes him away. Havok turns, and dashes towards Weatherlight, who ducks and throws Havok to the floor below! Weatherlight looks as if he’s going to try and exit the ring, but Havok grabs his foot, and pulls him down. He shifts Weatherlight’s body, hitting him with a few forearm shots, before slamming him in the head with a hard kick! Weatherlight falls out of the ring, grabbing the back of his head in pain! Havok then lifts up Weatherlight, and Irish Whips him into the steel post! He throws Weatherlight back into the ring, and springboards back inside, hitting a legdrop on Weatherlight! Havok goes for the pin…

Kickout by Pence Weatherlight!

Harvey: We’re some incredibly stiff offense here from Havok tonight, which is a surprise being that Pence Weatherlight is arguably the best brawler in APW!

Chase: What better offense to beat the crap out of Pence Weatherlight with than his own?

Havok lifts up Weatherlight, and bats him with a few kicks. He then Irish Whips Weatherlight, but Weatherlight reverses, and slams Havok with a knee, and runs off the ropes…right into a belly to belly suplex from Havok! Havok then drags Weatherlight to the middle of the ring, and locks in a sleeper hold, but Weatherlight quickly begins to fight out of it, getting a light amount of cheers. Havok yells “stay down asshole!” as Weatherlight brings himself fully up, and hits a hard elbow on Havok’s nose! Havok stumbles back, and Weatherlight goes in for the charge, but Havok moves and Weatherlight slams against the turnbuckle! He walks right into Havok, who Irish Whips him…but Weatherlight ducks a clothesline off the rebound, and drops Havok with a spear! Weatherlight then goes into a flurry of punches!

Harvey: Look at Pence Weatherlight just take off like a Goddamn rocket ship into space! So brutal.

Chase: Weatherlight was looking like a lightweight for a moment!

Harvey: Oh…ha ha….

Weatherlight pulls himself up, and then pulls up Havok. He begins to lay into Havok with a series of fists, and every time Havok tries to cover up, he gets a shot somewhere unexpected! Havok ducks a wide right, and jumps up for a kick, but Weatherlight ducks! Havok stumbles, trying to regain his balance…when Weatherlight nails him with a scissor kick! Havok rolls into the corner, and Weatherlight charges, slamming him with a tremendously vicious knee to the face! Havok looks to be nearly unconscious, and Weatherlight drags him to the middle of the ring. Weatherlight takes to the top turnbuckle, but right before he jumps, Havok gets up and kicks the ropes, making Weatherlight fall hard on the top turnbuckle! Havok then grabs Weatherlight, and tries to hit him with a superplex, but Weatherlight fights back and managed to nail Havok with the Reaper’s Will (Green Bay Plunge)!! Weatherlight makes the pin…

Kickout by Nathaniel Havok!

Harvey: Close pinfall by Pence Weatherlight! Both these men are eager to prove that they can move higher up in the APW ranks!

Chase: Well, they are the penultimate match, so there’s not much more moving…but yeah!

Both men stand up, groggily swaying back and forth, and begin to throw weak punches at one another. Suddenly, Weatherlight blocks on, and begins to go on a frenzy! Havok is backed against the ropes, and Irish Whiped, but he ducks an elbow! Havok grabs Weatherlight, and tries for the Suicidal Downpour (Canadian Downpour), but Weatherlight spins out, and goes for the Heavy Artillery (Rock Bottom), but Havok elbows him away! Weatherlight bounces off the ropes, and Havok tries to grab him for the Suicidal Solution (Anaconda Vise), but Weatherlight reverses it and locks in the Soul Destroyer (Rear Naked Choke)! The two men are still standing as Havok tries to fight out of it!

Chase: Weatherlight’s got the Soul Destroyer locked in! Havok’s got nowhere to go!

Harvey: Yeah, he-…wait a second!

The camera switches to ringside, where Ebirah has jumped through the crowd! He rolls into the ring, and runs off the ropes, slamming Havok, who looks nearly out, with the Xtreme Championship! Suddenly, the referee calls for the bell as Weatherlight drops Havok in surprise!

Winner via DQ: Nathaniel Havok

Harvey: What the Hell just happened?!?

Chase: Ebirah just cost Pence Weatherlight the win by hitting Havok with his own belt!

Ebirah gets on top of Havok and attacks him. Pence stands there watching this, all of a Sudden, Pence grabs Ebirah off of Havok, and Ebirah shoves Pence and then goes back on the attack on Havok

Harvey: Ebirah and Havok are scheduled to meet at One Night in Hell for the Xtreme Title. But I think Ebirah doesn’t want Havok to make it

Again, Pence pulls Ebirah off and this time, Ebirah hits Pence with a right hand punch, knocking him down and Ebirah goes back on the attack on Havok. Pence gets up and this time pulls Ebirah off and grabs him from behind in a rear naked choke. This sends Branden Harvey and ASP out to the ring. They get in the ring and nail Pence from behind, knocking him to the mat.

Chase: The Elite Posse making a statement

The trio continue to beat down Havok and Pence and then the three of them stand united in the middle of the ring and raise their arms

Harvey: This was an excellent match up until Ebirah got involved.

Elite Posse pose in the middle of the ring as we go to commercial.

[President Jeff]

Paige: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is our main event of the evening! Introducing first. . .from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. . .KURT NOBLE!!

The lights in the arena shut off, as the opening rhythm to "I Will Not Bow" blasts through the speakers. After a few moments, out steps Kurt Noble, eliciting a huge cheer from the crowd! Noble raises his cane into the air, and begins to limp down to the ring. Upon reaching it, Noble leaves his cane on the outside, and slowly walks up the stairs to the ring. He enters the ring, and climbs up on the turnbuckle, posing with his fist in the air as the cameras go off. Noble moves off it, as the lights return to normal and the music dies down.

Paige: And his opponent, from Seattle, Washington. . .BIGGS!

The arena lights fade to black as “Spaceman” blares over the loudspeakers. Blue laser lights shoot from the stage as strobe lights flash about the arena. Biggs enters to a chorus of boos, and flashes his trademark smirk before making his way down the ramp to the ring. Biggs mocks the fans as he heads towards the ring, and once he reaches the ring, he rolls in beneath the ropes, pops up to his feet, and raises his hands up, index fingers pointed upwards. Biggs removes his ring jacket and shades as the lights come back on.

Biggs vs. Kurt Noble


The two men go to lock up and Noble ducks from Biggs and starts kicking him in the back of the leg. After several kicks, Noble leans against the ropes and dropkicks Biggs in the knee sending him down to the mat. Noble waists no time and drives an elbow right in to the chest of Biggs and goes for a quick cover. . .

Biggs kicks out.

Harvey: I think Noble was trying to catch Biggs by surprise! Noble desperately needs a win here after taking the pin to Johnny Rebel last week!

Chase: Biggs is just resting, Darren. Give him a few minutes.

Both guys get back to their feet and circle one another. They go to lock up again and Noble goes to duck Biggs again but this time is caught with a kick to the gut by Biggs, doubling Kurt over. Biggs grabs him by the back of the neck and shoves him towards the turnbuckle and much to the fans delight delivers three well placed chops across the chest of Noble. Biggs trots over diagonally to the other side of the ring and with full steam charges at Noble but is met with both of Noble’s feet to his face. Noble pulls himself up to the second turnbuckle and leaps off with a double axe-handle smash to the top of Biggs’ head. Biggs crashes down to the mat as Noble immediately runs over and grabs the ankle of Biggs, twisting in the Quixotic Lock (Grapevine Ankle Lock). Biggs screams in pain as he makes every effort to crawl towards the ropes to break the hold. He reaches out with his left hand and just barely grasps the bottom rope and Noble is forced to release.

Harvey: Kurt Noble looking impressive early on in this match! He’s certainly made an impact on APW Overdrive!

Chase: If he can beat the former Overdrive and Undisputed Champion, he’ll gain the respect he’s after!

Noble pulls Biggs up to his feet and puts him in the corner kicking him in the gut, with each kick sending him lower to the mat. With Biggs sprawled out on the ground and his head resting on the bottom turnbuckle, Noble grabs both legs and lifts him up and sends him flying up in the air and crashing down on his back. Noble closes his fist and drops, landing a punch right between Biggs’ eyes, which sends him rolling around on the mat. Noble grabs a handful of Biggs’ tights and brings him back to his feet. He grabs him by the waist and drops him across his knee with a backbreaker and goes for the cover again. . .

Biggs kicks out!

Chase: A lot of fight still left in the Spaceman!

Noble leans in yet again to pick Biggs off the mat but Biggs reaches up and pokes Noble in the eye, which sends Kurt stumbling down to one knee. Biggs gets back to his feet and runs against the ropes, channeling his inner Tito Santana with a flying forearm smash to the forehead of Noble. Biggs waists no time getting the advantage and sits Noble up, grabbing his wrists from behind and digging his knee in to the back of Noble. Biggs reaches back and wrenches tightly as Noble refuses to give up, despite the referee’s continuous stream of questioning. After about a minute, Biggs lets go and delivers a standing dropkick to the back of Noble’s head. After a quick legdrop across the face of Noble, Biggs covers. . .

Kurt gets a shoulder up.

Biggs holds out three fingers towards the referee as he shakes his head no. He walks over and peels Noble up off the mat and whips him in the ropes and as he comes back, Biggs trips him up with a drop toe hold and in a role reversal grabs the ankle of Noble and falls down in to his own grapevine ankle lock. Noble is nowhere near the ropes and is unable to pull himself closer as he screams out in pain. After what seems to be fifteen minutes, Noble is able to roll over and break the hold with a few well placed kicks to the face of Biggs. Both men slowly get to their feet but Noble is favoring his leg as Biggs takes advantage and shoves him in to the corner. Biggs chops Noble in the chest several times and as he comes stumbling out of the corner, Biggs grabs him by the back of the head and sends him crashing to the mat face first.

Harvey: Both men are giving it everything they have here tonight! And to think in just a few short weeks, these men will be teammates!

Instead of taking advantage of the situation, Biggs runs around the ring with arms outstretched and taunting some of the fans sitting at ringside. Noble makes it back up to one knee by pulling himself up on the ropes while Biggs runs over and perches himself on the second turnbuckle. Noble, playing a bit of possum, hammers Biggs in the midsection with a right. . .and then a left and leaves Biggs sitting on the top rope with his right arm draped across his chest. Noble swings both legs to the outside and hooks Biggs head and arm and comes leaping off with a superplex that shakes the ring. Both men are down as the referee stands over the carnage with two hands over his head. . .after gaining his composure, he begins his count. . .

Biggs is the first to make a move as he kicks Noble in the stomach and goes for the Crashing Back to Earth but Noble breaks free, spinning behind Biggs and sends him flying overhead with a German suplex, releasing him so Biggs folds up like an accordion. Noble gets back up to his feet and with Biggs holding the back of his neck, Noble gets up on the second turnbuckle with his elbow up by his head and leaps off driving it in to the throat of Biggs and hooking the leg. . .

Biggs gets up and has the referee by the shirt as he waves his finger in front of Biggs face. Noble is back to his feet as Biggs takes a swing at Kurt but Noble sticks his hands up to block and comes back with a punch of his own.
