Asylum 8/14- Nashville, Tennessee

[reginald]

Ida Marie's “Bad Karma” blares over the speakers as the camera pans the crowd, showing all the signs. A table sits inside of the ring with two chairs, one on each side, and a clipboard resting in the center. The fans are cheering as the show opens up with Russ T. Nailz and Stephen Beckett sitting ringside at their commentators table.

Nailz: Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. We're a few weeks away from Shockwave, and have a great show in store for you.

Beckett: Great might be an understatement, Russ. We've got some great matches in store for you all this evening including the in ring debuts and returns of The Demon, Johnny Brown, and Tommy Knoxville.

Nailz: But the one match I'm waiting for is when Jason Kash and Sally Talfourd finally meet inside of the ring. We were supposed to see this match happen last week but, well, circumstances prevented it.

Beckett: Circumstances? You mean Havok right? Regardless, he's banned from the arena tonight so we should see a better match-up.

Nailz: Come on now, we both know Havok won't be staying away tonight.

Beckett: Maybe not, but what I do know, is that we're set to kick things off here tonight with a Shockwave contract signing between BDC and the APW Heavyweight champion Rico Casteel.

"Fallout" by Alter Bridge blasts from the arena's PA system. The crowd boo loudly as BDC walks out from behind the curtain and stands at the top of the ramp. The Welsh National Flag flies on the large screen as red, white and green pyros shoot high into the air as he heads to the ring.

Nailz: This is the man that is going to try and stop Rico Casteel at Shockwave.

Beckett: He stands a great chance, Nailz. Better than most back there, I'd say.

BDC enters the ring and raises his arms into the air as the fans boo before he walks around the table and stands at the far side. He picks up a microphone from the table and goes to speak.

But before he can "Sound of Madness" begins to play as Rico Casteel walks out from the back with a smile on his face and the APW World title around his waist. He shakes his head before walking down the ramp with his eyes locked on BDC.

Nailz: You think he really stands a chance at stopping the Loose Cannon, Steve?

Beckett: I said he stands the best chance. I didn't say he'd beat him though.

Rico reaches up and grabs the top rope, hauling himself onto the apron before stepping into the ring, snarling at BDC. He slides his chair out of the way and into the corner, before walking back to the table. Rico picks up the microphone and shakes his head again.

Rico: By now you should know, Chris. This is my show. This is my kingdom. I'm not about to let someone like you grab the spotlight and try and rub me under your foot like a cigarette. You see, Chris, you might be filled with these thoughts that you should be holding my title, that you are owed a title because of all you have done, but you'd be wrong about that. Very wrong. You've done nothing to earn this title shot that we're signing for right now. You've done nothing to--

BDC: Nothing? I've done nothing? I think I've done plenty. I know that I've handed you your ass on a few occasions, and last week, if I'm not mistaken, didn't our meeting end up with me standing in the ring while you scurried back to the locker room with your tail between your legs? So, really, Rico, if anyone isn't deserving of that title, its you. If anything, we should be finding someone that knows how to be a champion to fight me at Shockwave.

Rico: You and I both know that the only reason you're getting this match, is because Reginald is too much of a spineless idiot to look for a real contender. He's too busy playing keep away with Nathaniel Havok, that he just decided to let whomever waltz in and grab the number one contenders spot. And luck of the draw this time has landed on you, and he won't do anything to change that. He's too afraid to deny you this match that you've forced yourself into.

The fans continue to boo, obviously showing no love for either man in the ring.

BDC: Forced myself into? Rico, you're mistaken on that one. I've been around a lot longer than you have, and have earned my keep. You want to talk about luck? You lucked into that title. You were on the track to fuck all, losing to James Chambers on a weekly basis, before he finally took his own leave. And ever since, you've gotten quite full of yourself. It's about time someone took it upon themselves to put you in your place and teach you a lesson. To show you how a true champion should act.

Beckett: Let's get on with the contract! We`ve got a loaded show here tonight!

BDC smirks again as he takes a step forward, keeping his eyes on the champion. He steps around the chair and looks down to sign the contract, but before he can, Rico pounds a fist on the clipboard it's attached to and pulls it out of BDC's grasp and lifts it up off the table.

Rico: Like I said, this is my show. These are my peasants. All of those in that back do my bidding. And as the King of the Asylum, I will sign the contract first. You really do need to learn your place BDC. You need to learn that this title means that I am at the top. You. Well, you are nothing.

Rico picks up a pen and signs the contract, tossing the clipboard down onto the table before flicking the pen at BDC, causing it to bounce off his forehead. BDC's eyes go wide as he flips over the table, but Rico was ready for it and as BDC moves forward, Rico clobbers him with a big right hand. BDC blocks the next punch and fires in his own, followed by another and another. BDC raises a knee into the gut of Rico, but before he can capitalize, Rico shoves BDC away but BDC charges out and clothesline Rico down to the mat. This gives BDC enough time to right the table and grab a rising Rico and quickly lifting him up and powerslamming him through the table!

Beckett: My God! What power!

Nailz: We could be looking at the new APW World Heavyweight champion, Beckett.

The contract rests on the map and BDC picks it up, looking down at the signed name of Rico, before looking at the fallen form of him.

BDC: I'm definitely going to enjoy tearing that title from around your waist, Rico. These are the moments I live for and this is what I am all about. Big moments, grand stages, and winning championships. And it's going to be extra special taking that title away from a man that I utterly despise. Enjoy it while--

Before BDC can finish speaking, he is attacked from behind and knocked to the ground by two men.

Nailz: What the---

Beckett: That's Blade and Branden Harvey! What the hell are they doing out here?

The Gambler and Bobby Bodacious climb over the barricade and join in on the beat down with their Elite Posse partners, with The Gambler bringing in a steel chair. The quartet stomps away on BDC mercilessly before The Gambler hands the chair to Harvey who rears it back and brings it down over the back of BDC. Harvey then says something to the other three and Blade and Bodacious pick BDC up, holding him upright on his knees, while the Gambler holds the chair in front of BDC's face.

Nailz: I don't like the look of this...

Harvey takes a step back, bounces off the ropes and then hits the chair with a dropkick, sending it crashing into the face of BDC! The big man falls back, seemingly out cold, as the Elite Posse stands tall, nodding to one another. Harvey spots the contract laying beside BDC and picks it up, before picking up a pen and signing his name to the contract!

Beckett: What does Harvey think he's doing! He has no right to sign his name to that contract.

Nailz: No right or not, he just did it.

Beckett: This definitely won't sit well with BDC.

Harvey tosses the signed contract onto the fallen form of BDC as "Rise To It" begins to play throughout the arena to a chorus of boos, as the Elite Posse exits the ring and makes their way up the ramp, leaving the carnage in the ring behind them as Asylum goes to a commercial break.

[reginald]

APW Asylum comes back from the break with BDC yelling at Reginald Schmidt in his office. BDC is still nursing his face as he wails in on Reggie.

BDC: This is bull$#*^! Branden Harvey had no business signing his name on that contract!

Reginald takes the verbal abuse from BDC for a bit before sticking his finger up right in BDC's face.

Reginald: Now you stop right there, BDC! Now normally, I'd be sympathetic to your plight, but considering what you did to me last Asylum, you've given me reason to strip you of the #1 Contendership. You have two choices right now, either leave my office this instant, and I will consider possibly reinstating you into the match at Shockwave, or you can continue to yell at me, and remove any chance of that happening! I'll be going out to the ring later tonight with my decision!

BDC glares at Reginald, trying to intimidate him. Reginald, for his part, is actually showing some semblance of having a spine, pointing towards the door.

Reginald: The door's that way.

BDC continues to mean-mug the General Manager as he leaves the office. The camera switches back out to ringside.

The camera zooms onto the ramp and Mike comes out with a wide eyed look on his face, he walks down casually with a cane he dances as if performing a swing number.
When he enters the ring he throws the cane out to the crowd. And sits in the corner waiting for his opponent

The sound of "Invasion" goes off through the arena as Yoko is being led by Billy Walker, As Yoko is wearing a Ric Flair type robe, and is emotionless as he swiftly moves through the crowd hands and climbs over the top rope before disrobing himself as he takes a knee in a corner

Mike Morrison vs. Yoko Misawa

[/u]

The bell rings and Yoko comes at Morrison and throws a few punches. Morrison retaliates with punches of his own. He whips Yoko into the corner and follows him in with a dropkick. Misawa stumbles out of the corner and gets a hip toss from Morrison. Yoko gets up and gets a snapmare. He gets up again and gets another snapmare. He gets up again and Morrison sets him up before delivering a snap suplex. He covers.

Yoko kicks out. Morrison helps Yoko to his feet before whipping him into the ropes. Yoko comes back with a Gaijin Killer to Morrison.

Beckett: That's exactly the kind of move Yoko needed to get there! Morrison has been in control of much of this contest, but the big man looks to gain the offensive!

Yoko continues to physically dominate Mike Morrison for the next several minutes. He wears down the smaller competitor with a series of powerful moves that Morrison has no answer for! Yoko sets Morrison up in the corner before pulling him in position for a Muscle Buster, driving Morrison into the mat!

Nailz: The Quickening from Yoko Misawa! He could have it here!

Yoko covers, 1

Kick out from Mike Morrison! Yoko goes to pull Morrison up, but on the way back to his feet, Morrison gives the big man a hard knee to the gut, hunching him over! Morrison then hits a DDT on Yoko. The crowd is really behind Morrison as he has a crazed look on his eyes, grabbing Yoko's legs and wrapping them into a Texas Cloverleaf, which he calls the Straight Jacket! He sits down deep on Yoko's back, and despite his strength advantage, Yoko just doesn't have the leverage to try and drag himself towards the ropes! After struggling for the better part of two minutes, Yoko has no choice but to tap out! DING! DING! DING!

Winner: Mike Morrison[/center]

Stenfelder: Here is your winner, by submission, Mike Morrison!

"Mr. Madness" gets his arm raised in the middle of the ring, while Yoko rolls out to the floor, visibly angry that he lost. Mike Morrison continues to celebrate his victory while his music plays.

Nailz: A big win for Mike Morrison here tonight, as he knocked off the Human Tsunami in an excellent opening bout! Now we're going to send it backstage to our broadcast partner, Jake Spade!

Standing in front of an Asylum banner we see a Jake Spade with a microphone in hand.

::Jack Spade:: Thanks, Russ. I’m backstage once again and moments before his debut match here at APW’s Asylum I have, the international superstar, the man known as ‘True Brit’ Johnny Brown. Johnny come on in here

Jack ushers his guest into shot. Johnny stands with his back to the camera; he raises both thumbs to point to the Union Jack on his back.

::Johnny Brown:: Do you see what is on the back of my jacket Spade?

::Jack Spade: Umm yes I can it’s the Union Jack the UK’s flag it’s..

Johnny spins around, pulling his shades from his face revealing a pair of wild eyes.

::Johnny Brown:: It’s not just a flag, it’s THE Union Flag, the symbol of unity in my homeland. The reason I bring this to your; and those idiots watching this, attention is; despite an apparent lack of unity in this company I ‘ave been inundated with offers, requests, and damn near begging letters from the MEGASTARS for me to join them. To ‘elp them fight their fights.

::Jack Spade:: Really who? We need names?

::Johnny Brown:: The ‘True Brit’ doesn’t kiss and tell monkey boy, you won’t see me splashed across the tabloids like a media whore selling every aspect of my life, I won’t get involved in phone hacking or crap like that. Suffice to say the big guns ‘ere know how good I am, they know it’s better to ‘ave me on their side rather than them being on my radar. So all you dumbass fans that cheer your heroes or boo the villains, know that they all know despite the differences they know...

Brown pauses to put his shades back on, he tilts his head and stands silent enjoying the control he has over Spade, who is just stood poised with his mic in hand.

::Johnny Brown:: They’re all going to get their F’N heads KICKED IN!

A final shove sends Jack out of shot as Johnny stomps off.

Elsewhere backstage, The Demon is seen walking through the back corridors of the arena until he comes to a complete stop, backing up a few steps to a door with a name plate on it. The glare makes it impossible to read. He smirks then knocks on the door with a pounding fist, and after a moment it opens. A hand pokes out the door to shake hands, but we can't quite identify it.

Demon: Wasn't sure you would be here yet... I just wanted to talk to you before my match. I mentioned this to you before, but I want to try speeding this up a little. Maybe a big reveal at the Pay Per View. Influential Minds, revision.. I don't know, I've lost count. This coule be the strongest version we've had though I mean... You... Me... And... Well, I'm not going to say here, you never know who is listening. What do you think?

(There is a second of silence)

Demon: I know you are hesitant because of your history but think about it!

(Another second of silence followed by a familiar voice in the dressing room)

??: Yeah, you know what... I'm game.

Demon: I knew you would see it my way... But, don't let this throw you off your game tonight Tommy... I'm not going to take it easy on you either you know that. I'm in this match to win, and I'll hit you with every trick I have to, to keep you down.

Knoxville: Yeah, we'll do this right, for old time sake.

(The Demon walks away from the locker room as the door closes after a quick fist-bump between the two)

Nailz: what the hell? Can we really trust that two potential teammates will give it their all in a no rules match? I guess we'll find out later!

[reginald]

Adam: The opening contest is a triple threat match scheduled for one fall

The lights in the arena black out and after a few short seconds of silence a voice is heard on the speakers

"Do you feel that?
You better be ready..."

Silence falls over the crowd and speaker alike as they prepared for his entrance...

Adam: Introducing first, making his in ring debut, weighing in at 383 pounds, THE DEMON!!

With that the lights begin strobing with a green hue over the arena, a mist-like fog filling the ring area and ramp, and the crowd erupts with a mixture of cheers and jeers. The Demon heads out through the curtains an down the ramp, ignoring te fans, his focus set solely on what lays ahead in the ring. He stands in the center of the ring waiting the match to start as the next line of lyrics are sang over the speaker the lights flash on an stay on as he flicks his hair back out of his face.

The low intro to Town Called Malice plays across the arena. At the top of the ramp the lights flashing to the beat show a figure at the top of the ramp. As the chorus kicks in Johnny Brown turns flicks his arms out to herald his arrival. He struts to the ring ignoring the crowd nodding his head to his own theme.

Adam: On his way to the ring, Making his APW Debut ... Weighing in at 240lbs and hailing from GREAT Britain.. He is the True Brit... Joooohhnnnyyy Brooooooown.

Johnny stops his march to listen to his introduction raising his hands high, beckoning to no-one in-particular that he is here. He springs lithely to the apron, wipes his boots then steps between the ropes. His bomber jacket is quickly unzipped and tossed to the ring girl. He's ready.

The guitars begin to sound as "American High" by Machine Head plays over the arena. The lights dim and the entrance stage fills with smoke as dark red and white strobe lights flicker over the arena. The drums in the intro begin to beat heavily as it echoes over the arena. A bright white light shines from the entrance way as the silhouette of a man stands there. The guitars then begin to play heavy as Tommy Knoxville walks out from the back and out into the open. He stands there on the stage for a moment with his arms by his side as he looks over the arena getting mixed reactions from the fans. He then begins to slowly walk down the aisle

Adam: And finally, making his return to APW, this is TOMMY KNOXVILLE!

The song continues to play over the arena with power as Knoxville slowly approaches the ring. He then slides into the ring and climbs to his feet. He walks around the ring for a moment just before walking over to the corner and looking over the crowd once more. He then climbs the turnbuckle and holds his arms out looking above pumping his fist with the music. He then jumps down and spins around facing the center of the ring by the time he lands on his feet. Bouncing back and forth staring across the ring in the opposing corner Knoxville prepares himself as the music slowly begins to fade.

Beckett: Lucky for Johnny, Tommy was able to eliminate Demon from the match, which allowed Johnny to sneak in and pick up the victory

Johnny continues to celebrate as we cut backstage.

The cameras switch over to the backstage area where Jason Kash and Hayley Hitch are sitting outside in the parking lot. Kash is scratching his face, wanting to smoke but is also itching because he wants to be in the ring already. The two of them are catching up on old times, shooting the shit you could say but then two dogs come in through the entrance/exit of the parking garage. At first the dogs play with each other, sniffing around in the new environment of the parking garage. Hayley lays her head on Kash's shoulder and he puts an arm around her as they watch the two dogs. Then to their surprise, one of the dogs climbs the other dog's back and they begin fucking right there in the parking garage. Hayley's head pops up off Kash's shoulder and they both are stunned. They look at each other and then back at the dogs. Kash starts laughing and Hayley's laughter follows.

Jason Kash: So much for finding somewhere more private...

Hayley Hitch: He is going to town on her...it is a her right?

Jason Kash: Yeah, let's call him Sally and her Havok! Haha! Sally is watching us as she plows Havok, what a stud!!

Hayley Hitch: You're bad...What are they doing?

The two dogs begin to move around, the one being plowed moves, turns her head back and tries to bite at the other dog. They begin to get a little annoyed with each other and they try to pull apart. However because of the overmoving or whatever the case might be, they get stuck. Kash gets up from his seat and gives the dogs a standing ovation as he laughs harder than before. Hayley pulls him back down next to her with the back of his shirt.

Jason Kash: Oh come on! These dogs are putting on a show for us, gotta give them a round of applause!

Hayley Hitch: She was trying to bite him it seemed, maybe he wasn't giving her pleasure.

Jason Kash: Havok not pleasing someone? No Way!! Haha...I think maybe she just farted. You know how dogs when they fart they sometimes go back and smell their ass. Hahaha...Gross but all kinds of funny.

Hayley Hitch: Really? Well it seems someone has loosened up a bit. You feel less tense...

Jason Kash: Dogs fucking and getting stuck together does that I suppose. Have you ever watched a Donkey Show? Like sexual Donkey with Human show? I've always wanted too...Knuckles was suppose to take me once but he never did that prick.

Hayley Hitch: You are an odd person Jason Kash...

Since spotting them when he came out to the Parking Garage, Shane Borderland is playing ninja and sneaking up on his partner and Hayley from behind. He dips in and out of parked cars and concrete pillars as he approaches from the back. You can see him in the camera and the fans get loud at his appearance. As he comes in on them, he stands up straight and notices the dogs. His voice surprises both Kash and Hayley..

Shane Borderland: What the fuck are ya'll watching?

Kash and Hayley laugh so hard that Kash falls over forward onto the cold garage floor. The scene is pulls away from the three of them as Borderland has his head tilted watching the dogs still stuck together and trying to pull apart. One dog crying, the other one barking as the camera switch back to ringside.

[reginald]

Asylum comes back from commercial with the camera backstage, where Jason Kash and Shane Borderland are walking to their locker room. Shane stops at the bathroom, causing Jason to walk ahead.

Borderland: Hey bro, I’ve got to take a leak.

Kash: Fine, I’ll see you in the locker room.

Borderland heads into the bathroom, leaving Kash alone, walking back to the locker room. All of the sudden, out of nowhere, an all-black cloaked figure blasts Jason from the side, with a Kendo Stick. Kash hit’s the floor, as well do both of his championships. The figure continues to lay into Kash with the stick time after time. After the stick is completely destroyed, the cloaked figure tosses it to the side, and stands over Kash. Kash writhes in pain as the figure bends down, and grabs both of Jason’s championships. The figure stares at both titles, and tosses the Tap Out Championship onto the floor. The figure tries on the tag team championship, and then takes it back off. With Kash still down and out, the figure places the tag gold on top of its rightful owner, and dashes out of sight. The scene then fades back to ringside.

Beckett: What the hell just happened? How the hell did it happen? I’m sure that we all know who that was.

Naiz: No, it can’t be! He’s banned from the building!

Beckett: Well, if it is indeed Nathaniel Havok like we think it is, then Reginald needs to get better security!

Stenfelder: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

The opening riffs of "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath hits the PA and the fans quickly start cheering. Slowly, Chris Cyrus emerges from behind the entrance curtain and stands at the top of the stage, looking out at the crowd, embracing the cheers

Stenfelder: From Las Vegas Nevada, weighing in at 240 pounds, Chris....CYRUS!

Chris begins making his way down to the ring, and slaps a few hands of the fans before he walks up the ring steps and enters the ring. Chris walks over to the corner and climbs up the middle rope and the crowd cheers him as he poses. Chris jumps back down into the ring and waits.

"Rise to it" by Kiss begins to play over the PA system; the crowd are starting to go a bit nuts as they know what is coming. The lights are beginning to flicker on and off as Blade bursts out from behind the curtains and onto the ramp, with the Gambling Superstars joining him.

Stenfelder: And his opponent, accompanied by the Elite Posse, weighing in at 235 pounds, from Manchester, England, Blade!

Nailz: I guess Harvey's not out here with his stable mate because he's getting fitted for his dress!

Steadily strutting towards the ring he catches the attention of some girls in the crowd, he gives them a wink before hoisting himself upon to the ring. Ignoring the referee, he begins to taunt the fans to a chorus of boos and jeers. The Gambler and "Superstar" Bobby Bodacious gladhand with Blade in the ring, while telling Cyrus some choice words. Cyrus doesn't even wait for the bell, charging headlong into the group, trying to take out The Gambler! The numbers are too much for Cyrus, though, as Blade and Bodacious give Cyrus some clubbing blows, pulling him off the Suicidal Champ, and double teaming him with a Double Suplex! All three men then begin to lay the boots to Cyrus, but the ref gets in there, and ejects The Gambler and Bodacious from the arena!

Nailz: The Elite Posse is trying to take Cyrus out, but the ref is having none of it! He's ordered The Gambler and Bodacious out of here!

Security comes running from the back, and Bodacious and The Gambler get the hint, exiting the ring on their own accord, and going up the ramp. The ref asks Cyrus is he still wants to compete, which Cyrus agrees to. The ref helps him up, and gives Cyrus a couple of moments to compose himself before calling for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

Chris Cyrus vs. Blade

[/u]

Nailz: Cyrus is showing a lot of guts accepting this match despite the beating he just took there!

Beckett: More guts than brains, that's for sure!

The two men immediately get going at it, trading blows. The match that follows is a quick paced affair with lots of back and forth action. Around five minutes into the match up, Blade nails Cyrus with a Running Knee Lift, and as Cyrus falls back to the mat, Blade runs through towards the ropes and jumps up, leaping off the middle rope with a Springboard Leg Drop right across the throat! He pins Cyrus, 1

Winner: Chris Cyrus[/center]

"Iron Man" begins to blare over the speakers as the fans cheer. By this point, The Gambler has made his way back out onto the stage, and begins to mockingly clap for the #1 Contender for his title! Cyrus has none of it, immediately leaving the ring, and making his way up the ramp! The two men meet in the middle and begin to brawl!

Nailz: These two men will be facing off in a Deuces Wild at Shockwave two weeks from tonight, with The Gambler's APW Suicidal Championship on the line!

Beckett: They don't want to wait until Shockwave to fight! They're going at it right here, right now!

Security is back out to try and split the two bitter enemies up, but to no avail. While they try to pry the two men apart, Asylum cuts to the back.

Backstage, we see Terry Lee Richards sewing. Branden Harvey is standing next to him. Harvey slaps him across the face.

Harvey: Stop those uneven stitches. If I'm going to be forced to wear a dress, I want it to look good.

Nailz: Branden Harvey vs. Aeris King is up next. Let's hope Harvey's dress is done in time.

[reginald]

Stenfelder: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, in which Branden Harvey must wear a dress!

The fans cheer loudly at this announcement. The cheers turn to boos quickly as "Never Gonna Give You Up/Smells Like Teen Spirit" starts up.



Stenfelder: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Asylum General Manager, Reginald Schmidt!

Reggie waves to the crowd, acting like they're cheering him instead of booing him as he heads down the ramp. He makes his way over the announce table, putting on a headset, and taking a seat next to Russ T. Nailz.

Nailz: Well folks, we're being joined by our esteemed General Manager, Reginald Schmidt!

Beckett: Esteemed by butt!

Reginald: Watch your mouth, Mister, otherwise I might make you do your announcing in a dress! Branden Harvey thought he could get away with the ultimate insult of spitting in my face two weeks ago, so tonight, he has to face the humiliation of wrestling in a dress!

"Rise to it" by Kiss begins to play over the PA system. The crowd elicites a chorus of boos. The lights are beginning to flicker on and off as Branden Harvey bursts out from behind the curtains and onto the ramp. He's dressed in a little red dress that shimmers and shines much like the one worn by Jessica Rabbit in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."

Stenfelder: Making his way to the ring first, from Sacramento, California, weighing in at 140 pounds, wearing a dress, Branden Harvey!

Steadily strutting towards the ring, he mocks the fans on the way through. Branden looks like he's actually enjoying wearing the dress, yelling a few words at Reginald from the ring.

Nailz: Is it just me, or does it look like Branden Harvey actually likes wearing that dress!

Beckett: If so, then the joke's on you, Reginald!

Reginald: He should be embarrassed, he's a grown man wearing a dress!

Beckett: What I'm wondering is what's the situation with the World Title match at Shockwave! Branden Harvey signed the contract that was meant for BDC!

Reginald: Don't worry, I'll be addressing that after this match.

The arena lights go dim before "White Limo" blasts through the arena. Bright pink and white strobes then flash around the entry way as Aeris King steps out from the back. She walks out to the middle of the stage, glancing from side to side at the fans before she runs her hands up her body before holding her hands out to either side. She then winks into the nearest camera before heading down towards the ring.

Stenfelder: And his opponent, from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 119 pounds, Aeris King!

Nailz: Tonight is Aeris King's debut match! I'm excited to see her in action!

Reginald: I'll tell you what, she's a real looker that one!

Beckett: Oh great! Remember the last time you sexually harrassed the female Asylum Misfits? You ended up getting put through a flaming table wrapped in barbed wire!

Reginald: I'll tell you what, it was worth it! I can't wait for this next Thanksgiving, cause we'll do it again!

Nailz: Please just promise us you won't use the Sexy Turkey costume again!

Aeris walks down the ramp, looking at the fans before she gets to ringside. She then walks to the side of the ring before jumping up on the apron. Aeris struts to the center of the apron before turning, shaking her booty at the fans as she holds the top rope then flipping herself over the ropes into the ring. She rolls up to her feet before turning and posing once more for the fans. Aeris then goes to the corner, stretching on the ropes as she waits for the match to start. Branden acts like he's little Mr. Sexy as the ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

Branden Harvey vs. Aeris King

[/u]

Branden tries to rush towards Aeris to start the match, but he trips up on the dress! Aeris stands there and laughs at him, as do the fans.

Beckett: Not the start Harvey was looking for!

Branden has a disgruntled look on his face as he gets back up to his feet. Aeris can hardly contain her laughter as Harvey tries to hike up his dress a bit, accidentally revealing his rear end!

Nailz: OH NO! Branden's wearing a thong!

Reginald: I should have specified that he needed to wear shorts under the dress. I'm truly sorry that everyone has been exposed to this!

Once Branden realizes he's flashing his bum on national television, he lets the dress drop back down and tries to make his way to Aeris, but it's slow going. He goes for a Dropkick, which she easily sidesteps! The fans are making a mockery of Branden, while Aeris continues to toy with him, staying just out of his reach as he stumbles around in the dress.

Reginald: I think his seamster may have made it too tight in the leg area! This is great!

Beckett: I'll tell you what this is, this is a mockery of the great sport of professional wrestling!

Eventually, Aeris begins to go on the offensive, shooting Branden towards the ropes and catching him with a Reverse STO! She goes for the first cover of the match, 1

Kick out from Harvey! She pulls him back up, whipping him towards the ropes again! He ducks and attempted Clothesline, and puts on the breaks, grabbing a hold of Aeris' hair and slamming her head first into the mat! The fans are booing as Branden rips a slit up the side of his dress, giving him some more mobility in the legs. He begins to stomp Aeris, and keeps control of the match.

Beckett: This match may very well get us in big trouble with the Food Network! I can't think of any other show on their lineup that features this much skin other than the Everyday Italian Show with that gal who wears the lowcut tops!

Reginald: Hey, it brings in the viewers!

Back in the ring, Harvey and Aeris continue to go back and forth until Harvey plants Aeris with an X-Factor! He then makes his way up top, pulls up the top of his dress to flash his frontal area to the crowd, and jumps off, nailing a Sonic Boom!

Beckett: That move is normally impressive, but it's even more impressive in a dress!

Harvey goes for a pin, 1

Winner: Branden Harvey[/center]

"Rise to It" begins to play as Reginald takes off his headset, grabs a mic from the announce table, and heads into the ring, where Harvey is getting his arm raised.

Reginald: Cut the music! Cut the gosh darn music!

Aeris King rolls out of the ring as Reginald gets right in Branden Harvey's face.

Reginald: I don't know who the heck you think you are, thinking that you can not only get away with spitting in my face two weeks ago, but also thinking that you can get away with the little stunt you pulled earlier tonight! Lucky for you, Branden Harvey, this contract is a legally binding document, and I have no choice but to allow you to compete for the APW World Heavyweight Championship at Shockwave! But on the other hand, I do have the right to make the match a Triple Threat! You already know that you're going to be facing Rico Casteel, but allow me to invite your other opponent to the ring right now!

"Fallout," by Alterbridge, hits the speakers, and BDC begins to make his way down the ramp. Harvey's eyes are wide as the big man heads to the ring with a purpose! Harvey quickly gets out of dodge, running to the barricade and struggling to climb over as BDC chases after him! Reginald is laughing it up in the ring.

Harvey: That's right, Harvey! Run like the little coward that you are!

Harvey makes his way over the barricade, and runs away, as BDC follows him into the sea of humanity, in hot pursuit.[/color]

All of the sudden, the lights in the arena go out. Immediatley, they come back on, and Nathaniel Havok is standing in front of the Asylum GM with a sick smile on his face.

Beckett: What the hell?

Nailz: It was him! It had to be him earlier!

Swiftly, Nathaniel lifts his leg and Superkicks Reginald right in the chin. The GM goes down, and Havok quickly exit’s the ring, saving himself from Rico and BDC.

Beckett: No! No! Not again! Reginald has been knocked on his tail, yet again!

Nailz: Why? What the hell did Reginald do to Nathaniel?

With a cocky smile on his face, Nathaniel takes a mic out of his back pocket. As he walks up the ramp backwards, he keeps his eyes on the laid-out Asylum General Manager.

Havok: Hey, Jeff! Still think you can silence me? That’s both Kash and Reginald, now! I guess my work here is done! And Reggie, as you lay in there looking up at the lights, think long and hard about why this happened! It wouldn’t have, if you wouldn’t have played along with Jeff! Grow some balls, Reggie! Grow some balls!

Nathaniel by this time, has made his way to the top of the ramp. With the same cocky smile on his face, he tosses the mic to the floor, and exits to the backstage area.

[reginald]

The scene opens up backstage in the locker room of Rico Casteel, where the World champion can be seen sitting in an oversized chair, almost like a throne. He is grabbing the arms tight, the World title sitting in his lap. He is staring straight ahead, his eyes unblinking, when he begins to speak.

"Branden Harvey?"

He lowers his head and grabs the arms tighter, his knuckles turning white.

"Branden fucking Harvey?"

He shakes his head and stands up, grabbing his title, his eyes blazing with anger.

"I go from having to defend my title against one undeserving peasant, to two. I go from having to put up with one mans bullshit, to having to put up with another mans. And I know that Branden Harvey definitely has done less than BDC to even be a thought for a title shot. Yet this is the treatment I get? This is the bullshit that I have to put up with in my own fucking kingdom?

"Reginald, you've made it perfectly clear that you don't care for me. But you, as well as anyone, should know that as long as I hold this title, you have to put up with me. You can throw whatever pieces of trash you want at me, and after I swat them aside, you are still going to be left with me. You are still going to have to put up with me. You tried to screw me over at Mayhem when you threw Suzuki into the mix. You tried to stop me at Test For the Best, with Cyrus, and you failed. Just like your latest attempt to end my reign.

"As for Harvey and Defoe, well, the two of you just entered into dangerous territory. The two of you have just stepped into your own execution. There's no more playing around. Come Shockwave, the two of you will be forced to watch as your careers are abruptly ended at my hands. You will be forced to suffer as your bones are shattered inside of that God damn ring. Just remember that the two ofyou are entering into this warzone by choice. Neither of you are being forced to lose your lives.

"Luckily for you, BDC, you get a sneak peak tonight."

Rico exits the scene as it fades to black. Asylum cuts back out to Adam Stenfelder in the ring.

Stenfelder: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

"I'm the Bad Influence," by Lil' Wayne, hits the speakers. As the beat begins to thump throughout the entire arena, smoke begins to seep out of the stage. The fans get to their feet in mixed reaction, awaiting the entrance of Jason Kash! However, his music plays for the better part of a minute without anyone coming out!

Nailz: We saw this happen two weeks ago! Don't tell me that Nathaniel Havok has attacked Jason Kash again!

Beckett: We're getting word that something's going down backstage! Let's get a camera back there!

In the parking lot, Jason Kash and Shane Borderland are brawling with Nathaniel Havok and Sally Talfourd! Other wrestlers have formed a circle around the two teams cheering on the fighting! Security is trying to break through the circle but to little avail!

Nailz: The #1 Contenders are going tooth and nail with the champions! Security has had a heck of a time here tonight, and this incident isn't helping their cause!

Beckett: The fact that Havok is still in this arena shows how inept security is here tonight!

Reginald can be seen stumbling around outside the circle, trying to make his way through.

Reginald: C'mon now! Break the heck up!

He yells as he pushes his way past Chris Cyrus, getting into the circle. Borderland avoids a Running Crossbody from Sally, that sends her flying into Reginald instead! Sally is apologetic as she helps Reginald to his feet, but Borderland rushes in for a Clothesline! Sally ducks out of the way, and Reginald gets waylayed! Finally, Security breaks through the circle, and gets to seperating the two teams. They continue to lunge to each other while the General Manager is once again knocked out!

Nailz: Well, I don't think we'll be seeing Sally Talfourd versus Jason Kash here tonight!

Beckett: Reginald Schmidt has completely lost control of this show! Jeff should seriously think about replacing him!

Nailz: And I'm sure you want the job, right?

Beckett: Hell yeah!

Nailz: That'll be the day! When we come back, it's main event time!

APW Asylum cuts to commercial while Security continues to try and diffuse the situation in the back!

[reginald]

Stenfelder: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is a Six-Man Elimination Tag Team Match, and is your APW Asylum Main Event!

"Fallout," by Alterbridge, plays over the speakers as BDC, Hopper Rose, and Tyler Graves make their way out to the arena. The fans are booing loudly.

Stenfelder: Making their way to the ring first, the team of BDC, Hopper Rose, and Tyler Graves!

Beckett: This is a real nasty combination here! Most Hated made a statement with a huge win two weeks ago, and BDC is as mean as they come! All three of these men want to make a statement heading into Shockwave!

The three men storm the ring, where BDC stands tall in the middle, while Most Hated mount the turnbuckles, striking their respective poses as the music fades.

The lights dim down as "Sound of Madness" by Shinedown begins to play. After a few moments the large and imposing figure of Rico Casteel makes his way out from the back with the APW World Heavyweight title strapped around his waist. The Gambling Superstars are with him, and The Gambler is sporting his APW Suicidal Championship, while Bodacious arrogantly taunts the fans behind them. Rico pauses at the entrance and scans the crowd before smirking, cracking his neck, and making his way down to the ring with The Gambling Superstars following him.

Stenfelder: And their opponents, the team of "Superstar" Bobby Boadacious, the APW Suicidal Champion The Gambler, and the APW World Heavyweight Champion "The Loose Cannon" Rico Casteel!

Nailz: As impressive as the first team was, this team has two of our current champs on it! They should be the favorites going into this match!

They reach the ring, and enter. The Gambler rolls his dice while Bodacious removes his ring jacket. Rico removes his Title Belt from around his waist and looks towards BDC, raising it high in the air! For his part, BDC looks nonchalant. The ref orders the teams to clear the ring, with Bobby Bodacious and BDC staying in the ring for their respective teams. The ref calls for the bell, DING! DING! DING!

"The Loose Cannon" Rico Casteel & The Gambling Superstars vs. BDC & Most Hated

[/u]

At the start of the match, BDC comes rushing in with a Big Boot, but Bodacious ducks it, and rolls him up from behind, getting a fistful of tights that the ref doesn't notice, 1

Eliminated: BDC

Nailz: OH MY GOSH! BDC has been eliminated in the opening seconds of this match! Who would've thought that could happen!?

BDC is pissed off, and gets to his feet, giving Bodacious a stiff boot to the head before the ref gets between him and Bodacious. BDC shows that he doesn't give a darn, taking the ref's head off with a huge Clothesline! At this point, all the other competitors make their way into the ring, and begin to brawl! BDC pairs off with one of his opponents at Shockwave, Rico Casteel, and the two behemoths go back and forth in the middle of the ring, while Bodacious and The Gambler fight with Most Hated. Another ref runs down to the ring, with security in tow![/center]

Nailz: Folks, we're going to try and restore order here during our final commercial break! We'll be right back with more APW Asylum!

[reginald]

Asylum comes back on the air, with The Gambler and Hopper Rose going at it in the ring.

Nailz: Welcome back folks! Before the break, we saw this match decend into utter chaos as BDC was eliminated mere moments into this match when Bobby Bodacious got a handful of tights! During the break, the ref and security were able to get BDC out of here, and regain control of this match.

Beckett: The security team here tonight sure has had to earn their money, but I don't think they have!

Rose seems to be in control, wrenching The Gambler's arm in the center of the ring. The Gambler is standing on his tippy-toes, trying to regain leverage, but to no avail. Rose then gives the arm a hard snap, flipping The Gambler to the mat! Rose follows up with a stiff kick to the back, and keeps up the pressure, going for a cover, 1

Bodacious is in to break the count almost immediately! Rose looks pissed off, and pulls The Gambler up in a Side Headlock, dragging the wily veteran to his team's corner, tagging in Tyler Vaughn. Vaughn and Rose continue to take turns wearing down the Gambler for the next few minutes, with the Suicidal Champion only managing to get incidental offense in here and there. The Gambler gets the opening he was looking for as Vaughn goes for a One-Handed Bulldog, but whiffs it! The Gambler then returns the Stiff Kick to the spine, and pulls Vaughn down, locking in the Keno! Bodacious and Rico are in quick to intercept Hopper Rose, Double Clotheslining him out of the ring! Vaughn tries to hold on, but eventually has no choice but to tap out!

Eliminated: Tyler Vaughn

Nailz: Suddenly, Hopper Rose finds himself down three to one in this Main Event Match Up!

Beckett: It's no doubt that the surprise elimination of BDC to start this match has really hurt his team's chances! The numbers game is not in Hopper's favor!

Hopper looks up into the ring, and shakes his head. He begins to make help Vaughn to the back, waving his hand that he's out of here. The Gambling Superstars don't take kindly to this, exiting the ring, and following them up the ramp. They proceed to attack Most Hated, and begin to go back and forth! The ref shrugs his shoulders and begins the count of ten, while Rico just leans up against the ropes, shaking his head.

"1!"

"2!"

"3!"

Nailz: The Gambler and Hopper Rose are the legal men right now!

"4!"

"5!"

"6!"

The two true tag teams continue to go at it on the ramp, with none of them making any effort to get back to the ring.

"7!"

"8!"

"9!"

"10!" DING! DING! DING!

Winners: Rico Casteel & The Gambling Superstars

Stenfelder: The referee has counted out Hopper Rose, The Gambler, and "Superstar" Bobby Bodacious. Therefore, here is your winner, and the sole survivor, the APW World Heavyweight Champion, "The Loose Cannon" Rico Casteel!

The fans boo the finish of the match while Casteel raises his arms high in the air. As he does so, BDC comes storming back out from the crowd, and jumps Casteel from behind! BDC clubs him with some hammering blows, but Casteel fights back, giving BDC a hard kick to the nuts before lifting him up for the Bedlam Buster! Casteel stands over the downed BDC, raising his title high while yelling some profanities towards his downed opponent!

Nailz: BDC tried to get an advantage heading into Shockwave, but the champ showed why he's the top dog, fighting back to lay BDC out with a Bedlam Buster!

Beckett: Wait a second! Who's this coming out!?

Branden Harvey hops the barricade in normal ring attire, and in a flash, pops up from the floor onto the apron and then the top rope in a blink of an eye! He jumps off and nails Rico with a Front Foot Dropkick to the back that sends Casteel stumbling into the ropes! Harvey pops back up and takes "The Loose Cannon" down with a Drop Toe Hold that sends him crashing right into BDC! The fans are booing at the top of their lungs as Harvey mounts the top turnbuckle again, and goes for a Sonic Boom that nails both BDC and Rico Casteel! Harvey is grinning from ear to ear as he holds his midsection and eyes the APW World Heavyweight Title Belt. He gets to his feet, picks the belt up, and slings it over his shoulder.

Nailz: Branden Harvey is making a huge statement here tonight after stealing BDC's title shot at Shockwave! Could this be an omen of things to come! We'll find out in two weeks!

Beckett: I'll tell you this much, Shockwave just got even more interesting than it was before!

APW Asylum comes to a close with Harvey standing in the ring, celebrating with the belt as "Rise To It" plays over the speakers. The screen fade to black!
