(Cameras fade to the entrance of a courtroom where
litigations between The FWF and representatives from
ESPN have just ended. As the doors burst open, we
see two representatives from ESPN make a hasty exit
as they fight their way through the throng of
reporters and onlookers. Shortly after, the doors
burst open once again and FWF Pres. Joe LeBron, FWF
Exec. VP Scott Malec and VP Lord Dread emerge from
the courtroom. They are immediately swamped by
reporters thrusting microphones in the their faces.)
SPORTS ILLUSTRATED REPORTER: Mr. LeBron... MR. LEBRON!! Are
you satisfied with the courts ruling?
LEBRON: Well, a $21,000,000 settlement won't even come
close to the revenues that the FWF would have made with the
remainder of our 5 year contract with ESPN, but it will
definitely help in our relocation costs and other related
expenses as we prepare to sign with another network.
SPORTING NEWS REPORTER: Mr. LeBron, ESPN has been quoted as
stating that the financial collapse of their uplink
satellite used to broadcast all FWF events, better known as
Prodigy Classic, was unfortunate as well as unavoidable but
that they would make amends by offering you broadcast
service of equivalent quality through their sister station,
ESPN2 and you out right refused. Any comments to that?
LEBRON: First off, you had better get your facts straight,
ESPN did offer us broadcast capabilities with their sister
station ESPN2, however, what they CONVENIENTLY neglected to
mention was that the FWF was expected to pay for the
transfer fee to ESPN2 among other fees such as relocation
fees, contract and lawyer costs in addition to and not
limited to a 25% price hike in what we are currently paying
them! As I see it, no matter how unfortunate it was that
the Prodigy Classic uplink failed financially, that is NOT
the fault in any way of the FWF and we shouldn't be
expected to lay out not even an extra dime to transfer to
ESPN2.
INSIDE WRESTLING REPORTER: So then, now that you have won
your $21,000,000 law suit against them, what will be the
FWF's next move?
LEBRON: We are already in contract negotiations with
another service provider and pending any unforeseen
problems, we expect, after the presentation of ALAMODOME
tonight, to be fully operational again no later than this
coming Monday, July 12th!
PWI REPORTER: That's less than a week away!! Are you always
in the habit of closing multi-million dollar deals DURING
the process of la law suit?
LEBRON: We at the Frontier, how can I say this, (smiles),
well, lets just say that we at the FWF like to DARE THE
UNKNOWN!!
WRESTLING REVIEW REPORTER: What of the rumors of possible
blackouts during the ALAMODOME presentation? It has been
rumored that ESPN may "all of a sudden" experience some
technical difficulties during this last ESPN broadcast of
the FWF's Alamodome?
LEBRON: Well, I'm not naive, I fully expect ESPN to
experience "technical difficulties" during our last
broadcast with them, but because the FCC will not allow us
to breach our current contract with ESPN, which
incidentally ends on July 11th at 11:59 PM, there is really
nothing I can do about that other than sue their (BLEEP)
again!
OFF THE ROPES REPORTER: So are you inferring that ESPN will
intentionally and as a result of today's outcome,
vindictively get back at the FWF by blacking out parts or
all of your broadcast tonight??
LEBRON: I am inferring nothing! I am outright saying that
the minute they DO try and black us out tonight, they can
expect to find themselves in court again. Now if you'll
excuse us, we have a plane to catch......
(The reporters continue to hurl questions at LeBron, Malec
and Dread but they all go unheard as the three FWF
officials enter their limo and speed away...... Cameras
fade out to static ........)
(Cameras fade slowly back to focus and then slowly return
to a small room where we see the Triple Threat Team of
Tony Ross, Victor Alvaraz and with more than just a few
bandages on his face, and a neck brace, Jake shades.....)
TONY ROSS: Well that was earlier today, just a few hours
ago actually, and FWF Pres. Joe LeBron was right on the
money with his prediction of ALAMODOME being blacked out by
ESPN. At least, the majority of the card was and so
instead of doing our regular broadcast DURING the show,
we'll be doing a RECAP tonight, showing what little footage
we were able to salvage to try and give you the most
complete picture we possibly can of the events at ALAMODOME
last night.
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Well if you really want to know what
happend in the License versus License match, just look at
Jake Shades face!!! (Laughter is heard)
JAKE SHADES: (picking at one of the many bandages on his
face) (BLEEP) YOU ALVAREZ!!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: In any event, the first match that evening,
scheduled to be between newcomers "DOC" Sam Cooperman and
"The Immortal" Sky was cancelled. From what my sources
tell me, "DOC" Sam Cooperman failed a routine physical exam
and was not given medical clearance to wrestle and "The
Immortal" Sky decided to retire from the sport of
professional wrestling all together. We here at the FWF
wish the Immortal Sky only the best in his retirement as he
was, in his time, a major force in the wrestling industry.
JAKE SHADES: Oh yeah? If he's so immortal then WHY is he
retiring? HAHAHAAAAA!!
TONY ROSS: That was in poor taste Jake.
JAKE SHADES: Actually, I kinda like the taste it left in my
mouth....
TONY ROSS: It's too bad you couldn't have wound up with a
bandage around your MOUTH.... A BIG ONE!! The following
match that evening was a see-saw battle from beginning to
end. It involved a newcomer by the name of The Jobber and
his opponent Stonewolf!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Tony, that match surprised a lot of people.
Virtually no one thought that The Jobber would do as well
as he did!
JAKE SHADES What are you talking about?? Old WOLFMAN
clearly dominated the match!!?
TONY ROSS: Jake, I think that beating you took last night
must have scrambled your brains more than they already
were! Let's take a look at some video footage that got past
the ESPN Blackout.
(Cameras zoom away from the Ross, Alvarez and Shades and
focuses on a huge monitor behind them......
(The video footage of the Jobber/StoneWolf match begins
some where in the middle of the match which clearly shows
StoneWolf in charge as he is pummeling Jobber with repeated
lefts to the forehead! Jobber swings and misses with a left
of his own and StoneWolf connects with another left!
Jobber staggers back some and almost falls through the
ropes. StoneWolf moves in on Jobber but the Jobber, in an
act of desperation jabs StoneWolf with at thumb to the
eyes, temporarily blinding him. Jobber then takes full
advantage with a few kicks to the groin. Jobber then
attempts to suplex StoneWolf, but StoneWolf somehow
manages to flip himself over and behind the Jobber,
trapping him in his finisher, The Black Mountain Splash!
After the reverse DDT, StoneWolf went for the cover .....
1... 2 .... StoneWolf
gets off of the prone Jobber, raising his hands in
victory, but slowly drops them as the referree informs
him that the time limit ran out before he could get the
three count! StoneWolf looks at the prone Jobber, still
lying, semi conscious on the mat, then at the referree,
who wisely takes a few steps back. StoneWolf then simply
shakes his head and exits the ring as Paul Kramer is heard
in the background calling the match a TIME LIMIT DRAW!)
JAKE SHADES: YA SEE!! Exactly what I said. WOLF BOY
DOMINATED THE JOBBER!!
TONY ROSS: Why Jake, did they hit you so hard in your match
that you are now defending fan favorites?
JAKE SHADES: I'm NOT defending that HALF BREED!! I'm doing
like I ALWAYS do.... stating it like it IS!! Which is more
than I can say about YOU TWO CLOWNS!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Well, I'll remember that when we get to
YOUR match Shades.
JAKE SHADES: BITE ME!
TONY ROSS: Now if you want to talk about total domination,
the next match was a classic example of that. It involved a
3 way dance between newcomers Hacker, Whitesnake and
Archangel!
JAKE SHADES: HA! That was no match... that was a MASSACRE!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: I hate to admit it, but Shades is
absolutely right about that and ironically, this match was
MERCIFULLY blacked out. Even talking about the events of
that match would be too graphic so I'll just tell you the
results.....
JAKE SHADES: Oh stop being a LITTLE BITCH!!! Be a MAN for
once in your life. In fact... LATER FOR YOU! I'll tell the
people what happened in that match!! First off, this match
had it ALL and in RECORD TIME I might add as Archangel,
smartly I might add, sat back and allowed Hacker and
Whitesnake to begin slugging it out in the middle of the
ring.... he calmly walks up behind the two DOLTS and KONKS
both their heads together!! While Hacker was down he pulled
Whitesnake to his feet, straddled the second rope and
executed a piledriver off the second rope RIGHT ON TOP OF
HACKER'S HEAD!!
He then casually layed down across both of them with his
arms crossed behind his head and legs crossed as if he were
laying on a sofa or bed while the referee counted to
THREE!!! After the pin... he noticed that they were
bleeding and his eyes lit up!! He actually knelt over them
and started lapping up their blood!! He then took the palms
of his hands and began rubbing their blood all over his
body. Hell, they had to call security in just so the medics
could take Hacker and Whitesnake out on stretchers! IT WAS
GREAT!!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Only SCUM like YOU could revel in some one
else's pain! Why couldn't you just say that Archangel
defeated Whitesnake and Hacker in under two minutes and
leave it at that?
JAKE SHADES: Because VICTORIA, people paid GOOD money to
see this fight and since they couldn't see it thanks to
those BASTARDS at ESPN, they should at least have the
pleasure of HEARING the details!
TONY ROSS: And since when do you care so much about the
fans?
JAKE SHADES: I don't, the fans could KISS MY ASS!! I'm just
telling it like it is!! 'Nuff said!
TONY ROSS: 'Nuff said? HA! I'll believe it when I DON'T
hear you anymore! The next match was yet another match
involving another newcomer to the FWF. It pitted newcomer
Alister Hayze against Kindred member, Isz. This match,
much like the previous one, while not as brutal, was
certainly just as brief as Hayze made short work of Isz by
landing a vicious neck breaker on the outside of the ring
which left Isz screaming in pain. Hayze then rolled Isz
into the ring and made ISZ submit with his SWINGING NECK
BREAKER!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: I never thought I would see the day when a
member of the Kindred would lose a match by submission but
I suppose you reap what you sow.
JAKE SHADES: REAP WHAT YOU SOW?? WHAT THE (BLEEP) IS THAT
SUPPOSED TO MEAN? HAYZE GOT LUCKY AGAINST ISZ THAT'S ALL!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: You should know what I mean, I mean, YOU
yourself reaped what you sowed last nite! (grinning)
JAKE SHADES: Oh yeah? You keep on with those cracks and
I'm gonna REAP YER ASS HERE AND NOW!!! OWWWW!!! (begins to
grasp at the neck brace.)
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Careful Shades, remember what the doctor
told you, you can't be getting all riled up, losing your
temper when you suffer a concussion!
TONY ROSS: Well, it was bad enough that Hayze totally
dominated Isz the way he did but then to just pull up a
chair and place it OVER Isz's prone body and sit on it
while he called for the mic was adding insult to injury.
I think we managed to get some footage of that.
("One Vision" by Queen is heard as the huge monitor behind
Ross, Alvarez and Shades once again comes alive. The crowd
pops as the lights start to change from red to purple,
back and forth. A spotlight hits the center of the ring
where Alister Hayze sits in a chair over the prone Isz
with a mic in his hand)
Hayze: Alright, alright, settle down...I know it's exciting
to have me in your town, but there's more to come. You have
those real exciting main events coming up, ya
know. But seriously, I need some time to spill my guts,
guys. For the past few weeks, you've seen vintage Hayze
material. I come out here, prance around like Shawn
Michaels, display my full range of wrestling manuevers. I
got my ass kicked, I kicked some ass...bottom line, you've
seen the carefree daredevil mess around as if nothing was
buggin' him. Well, surprise, surprise--something IS buggin'
me. Ya see, I haven't been in just a whole lot of
organizations. But, wherever I've gone, the people are in
control. The wrestlers are in control of themselves, the
suits are in control of the company. Here, however, the
entire league lets itself be cowed by the NEH/UA and Nevada
Smith. Give me a break! These guys are pushovers at best!
And yet you guys, Matthews, Kale, even the friggin' suits,
all of you! You guys let these guys scare you into the
shadows. I've never ever seen anything so pathetic. Now, I
know all you guys back there are saying, "Yeah, right, what
does this punkass kid know?" I know a lot pal. You guys
went all elitist on me when I showed up. I don't fit in,
right? Well, I fit in well enough to see the problem, and
it's the NEH. And I'm just gonna offer you guys a piece of
advice--don't let them win! If you guys would think for
awhile and just say, "Screw them" and attack them un
masse...crap, they couldn't win! Instead, you stupid freaks
walk around like there's nothing wrong. I realize this is a
different yard, but I'm used to being top dog. I'm issuing
a challenge to these NEH guys. Any one of you, in the ring,
anytime. And as to the rest of you wrestlers back there, if
you aren't part of the solution...you're part of the
problem. So get a clue and take 'em on. And JC...I'm
waiting.
("One Vision" starts up again as Hayze exits.... the
monitor goes black and then the cameras zoom back to Ross,
Alvarez and Shades.....)
JAKE SHADES: That ARROGANT (BLEEP)!! He gets LUCKY with
ISZ and he thinks he can take on JC and the NEH? He's more
delusional than YOU Victoria!
TONY ROSS: Well delusional, or lucky, Hayze DID get an
impressive win over Kindred member Isz and somehow I think
he'll be able to back up his bravado.
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Tony, that wasn't the ONLY explosive mic
spot that evening, before the next match could get
underway, we had an interruption of sorts... well, we
managed to get this on video tape so why don't we just take
a look at last night's interruption on the monitor.
JAKE SHADES: Hell yes!! Anything NOT to hear your talk
nonsense!
(The monitor behind them comes alive and begins displaying
footage of last night's events.......)
PAUL KRAMER: Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed
that tonight there is an icon of wrestling in the building
and will make an appearence momentarily.
(the lights begin to dim and what appears to be druids
wearing neon green robes bring a coffin to the ring.
Lights go off and then back on the casket opens and in
the ring stands the IKON Abel Wicks with a microphone in
hand.)
WICKS: Ladies...gentlemen....wickheads far and wide.
Your hero, fantasy lover,and IKON has returned to the
industry. Now many of you were worried about the Wicker and
his absence. Let the Wicker tell you he's doing fine and
is more of an IKON than ever. The Wicker also wants to
state that in the last organization he graced..they
unjustly jobbed him left and right to the dismay of
Wickheads around the world. Due to political BS, little
children were cutting their wrists in tears at the sight of
their beloved savior jobbing. But no more....the Wickster
has returned with new vision..new purpose... no more mere
jobbing for this IKON...a SuperWick here....a Wickbomb
there.....apply the Wicks of Saturn and another victim
....the Wicker knows the FWF wants a superstar..and they've
received the greatest one of all. A role model.....a
worker....a personality...a lunatic....sometimes a
cannibal....but most of all..hell I shudder to
say...IKON....and thus the Wicks World title Push version 2
begins in FWF...no baggage..no BS....just the IKON..his
Wickheads and the greatest show in the world!!
(Suddenly the lights go out and when they come back on, the
ring is empty! No Coffin, no Abel Wicks!! The monitor goes
black and the cameras zoom back to the Alvarez, Ross and
Shades.....)
JAKE SHADES: Hey, I've heard of that guy, he's no PCS but I
like his style!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: If he's ANYTHING like the stories I'VE
heard about him, then the FWF has just landed one of the
TOUGHEST competitors to ever grace the squared the circle.
TONY ROSS: Well, I'm sure we'll find out soon enough what
the self proclaimed IKON is capable of, but right now I'd
like to talk about the NEXT match, YOUR match Jake!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: (snickering)
JAKE SHADES: (gives Ross a dirty look) Isn't it time for a
commercial break or something?
TONY ROSS: This is a special presentation by the FWF, there
ARE no commercials here. Just luck for you that your match
was one of the many blacked out. In any event, you should
of seen the look of surprise and yes, even horror on your
face when you saw who Danny Diaper chose as his partner.
JAKE SHADES: HEY!! That wasn't horror!! I was just passing
gas and burping at the same time!
TONY ROSS: Whatever, anyway....
VICTOR ALVAREZ: NO WAIT TONY!! Let ME tell this one!
TONY ROSS: (gives Shades a grin and ....) Go ahead, be my
guest!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Okay.... the look of absolute HORROR on
your face was SOOOOO funny when you saw that Diaper's
partner was none other than your FAVORITE FWF OFFICIAL...
VP SCOTT MALEC!!
JAKE SHADES: I was set up I tell you! Malec set this up
from the beginning just to get back at me for all the times
I KICKED HIS ASS!!
TONY ROSS: Well, EVEN if that were true, he DID get back at
you, MAN DID HE EVER!!! He didn't even need Diaper as he
just tossed the two of you around like pillows!! Though I'm
sure every time he hit you it felt like a hammer!! HAHAAA!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Now THAT match was one of total domination!
Scott Malec was beating YOU and JC like a broken drum!!
JAKE SHADES: Yeah, well, we only LET him do that to us
because he said if we didn't he would FIRE us!
TONY ROSS: I sincerely doubt that he EVER said anything of
the kind!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Anyway..... I think the FUNNIEST and most
HUMILIATING point of the match for you and JC was when
you tried to run away from Malec and he grabbed you by the
tights and they came down around your ankles!!
HAAHAHAHAHA!!! You SURE were a PITIFUL site standing in the
middle of the ring with your tights down to your ankles!!
JAKE SHADES: Yeah, well your WIFE doesn't think so!!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: In fact, isn't that how you got your
concussion? When you bent over to pull up your tights,
Malec kicked you SO hard in ASS that you FLEW through the
ropes and landed straight on your head on the concrete
floor! OH MAN!! THAT WAS HILARIOUS!!!
JAKE SHADES: I fail to see what was so funny about that, I
could have been seriously injured by the MANIAC!!
TONY ROSS: I doubt anything could hurt that dome of yours
Shades!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Then when Scott Malec chased you and JC
around the ring and the both of you crashed right into each
other... MAN that was CLASSIC!!!
JAKE SHADES: It was all part of our master plan....
TONY ROSS: Master plan? To do what? Make him submit from
the pain of laughing too hard?
JAKE SHADES: Well okay, you had your fun, now go on and
continue telling what happened, like the END of the match
to be precise!!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: You have no shame do you!? It doesn't
matter to you that the ONLY reason you and JC won that
match was because of outside interference!?
JAKE SHADES: Not just ANY outside interference.... JC's
NEWEST NEH RECRUIT..... NEVADA SMITH!!! Ya go ahead and
tell 'em how Nevada came in and LEVELED Malec with that
chair!!
TONY ROSS: Why should I, you already did! You're just lucky
that the you managed to distract the ref with all your
yelling screaming and running around while Nevada did that.
Why he would EVER help you and JC out is beyond me! Let
alone join the NEH!
JAKE SHADES: All part of the MASTER plan Tony my man!
Nevada KNEW where the REAL power lies and he wants a piece
of it!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Well, by some FLUKE and with the help from
that traitor Nevada, you managed to get the win over Malec
and Diaper and JC kept his license. I guess Diaper is out
of a job now and Malec, well, knowing him the way I do,
this won't be the last of this!
JAKE SHADES: Look Malec got his ass KICKED by me and the
NEH, just like the way the NEH took care of those two
corporate buffoons MaelBUM and the Kicago Klown!!!
TONY ROSS: How could you stand there and honestly try to
degrade two great athletes like Maelstrom and King Krusher?
These guys are LEGENDS!
JAKE SHADES: Yeah, legendary FOOLS! Hell, just look how the
NEH managed to SO EASILY trick them into fighting
THEMSELVES instead of us! What a bunch of suckers!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: You know Jake, even though the NEH DID
manage to trick them into fighting each other, I for one am
glad they did! Hell, that was one of the greatest fights I
had EVER seen!
TONY ROSS: It certainly was! These two guys have it all,
SIZE, STRENGTH, WRESTLING ABILITY and they went all out!!
That match just kept going back and forth and it probably
would have outlasted their famous parking lot brawl at
Chicago's UC Center where KK recaptured the NFWA title from
Maelstrom, were it not for the NEH once again.
VICTOR ALVAREZ: That's right Tony, and it's a shame too,
cause now we'll never get to know if Maelstrom would have
gotten up after KK planted him with his finisher,
the "Slingshot Brainbuster" because that's when the NEH
came and interferred by attacking them both! Those damn
cowards!
JAKE SHADES: Cowards? Nah, they're just plain smart!!
Divide and Conquer!! Let them kill each other THEN and only
THEN attack!!
TONY ROSS: Divide and conquer is right, only it was
Maelstrom and King Krusher that divided and conquered as
they cleaned house against the NEH and TOGETHER drove them
away! The match was declared a no contest, but looking
into their eyes, even though it's quite obvious they
despise each other, there was no mistaking the RESPECT they
had for each other as they merely glared at each other in
the middle of the ring, backed away from each other and
went their separate ways!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Yes Tony, that was truly a magnificent
moment as we saw two of the wrestling industry's biggest
legends first square off against each other and then unite
to fight off a common foe! Simply inspiring.
JAKE SHADES: Give me a break will ya! Don't you have
another match to talk about now?
TONY ROSS: Well, the Tag Team Titles were SUPPOSED to be on
the line but it what we ended up witnessing was the EASIEST
title defense in the history of the sport as the CAT PACK
successfully defended their titles by virtue of a default
win. A few days before the match, Middle Aged and Crazy
went berserk on a camera crew, seriously injuring the
cameraman as well as a few innocent bystanders. They were
arrested that same day and are currently awaiting trial on
charges of assault and reckless endangerment. So
naturally, they were unable to attend their match against
the CAT PACK and lost by default. I understand that if
convicted, they both face a possible FIVE years in prison.
JAKE SHADES: I always knew that CAMERA SHY LUNATIC would
eventually hurt someone! He got what he deserved.
VICTOR ALVAREZ: You're all heart as usual Jake.
JAKE SHADES: Yep.... heart of stone.
TONY ROSS: Well, the next match was to see who would be
crowned the next Frontier Champion as a result of Jean
Rabesque being forced to surrender the title due to
injuries sustained in his fight against then National
Champion PCS.
JAKE SHADES: Now THERE was a champion!! PCS!!
TONY ROSS: Yes he certainly was, until Billy Matthews
finally released that chokehold he had on the title and
captured it himself, but that's another story.
JAKE SHADES: So WHY bring it up then?
TONY ROSS: Would you be quiet! Anyhow, it was originally
booked as a four way dance for the belt between Goldwire,
Big Rodge, Wayne Robertson and Jared Wells. Then Goldwire,
for some unknown reason pulled himself out of the match.
JAKE SHADES: Proof of just how much of a COWARD he is!
TONY ROSS: I sincerely doubt that, though it does make you
wonder why ANYONE would pass up such an opportunity.
TONY ROSS: Anyhow, now it was down to three. That would
soon change as Big Rodge had to suddenly pull out because
he injured his knee and had to have surgery immediately. So
by the time the match started it was down to just Wayne
Roberts against Jared Wells and let me tell you that was
one HELL of a match!!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: It certainly was Tony! It was a seesaw
battle of unbelievable proportions!
JAKE SHADES: Actually, I found that match kinda boring!
TONY ROSS: Most unconscious people would! Jared Wells took
an early advantage but quickly found himself on the
defensive as Roberts simply REFUSED to stay pinned! On more
than 3 occasions Jared Wells nearly scored the victory with
near 3 counts but Roberts was not to be denied as he
continually battled back time and time again.
VICTOR ALVAREZ: That was the most determined I had EVER
seen Roberts since returning to the FWF!
JAKE SHADES: Yeah, yeah, go on already.....
TONY ROSS: This match was as tough as they come and it
ultimately came down to WHO would make the mistake first!
Near the 25 minute mark, it appeared that Wells had Roberts
just where he wanted him as he began to set up Roberts on
the top turnbuckle, no doubt setting him up for his
finisher, the RAGE BOMB, but he didn't count on Robert's
resilience as Roberts began to battle back as they BOTH
fought while straddling the turnbuckle. It was Roberts
however who managed to stun Wells with a head butt at which
point he quickly took advantage and hooked Wells in HIS
finisher, the double arm DDT from the top rope! That was
all he needed as he simply lay exhausted on top of Wells as
the ref made the three count, making Wayne Roberts the
winner and only the 3RD ever Frontier champion!
JAKE SHADES: No matter, he's STILL a loser and it's only a
matter of time until someone like maybe Abel Wicks comes
and beats him senseless for it!
TONY ROSS: Well that remains to be seen. The final match of
the evening was for the National Title as the Champion
Billy Matthews took on the #1 Contender Nevada Smith!
JAKE SHADES: HEY!! That's MR. NEH, Nevada Smith now!
VICTOR ALVAREZ: Unfortunately, you may be right about that.
This match was a long drawn out battle that passed the
ONE-HOUR mark! It was Nevada's brutality against Matthews
speed and cunning. For the most part it was faced paced
throughout with neither man gaining an advantage for too
long a period. Let's go to the monitor and watch some of
the footage......
(Cameras zoom to the huge monitor behind them and picks up
the action about 45 minutes into the match.......)
(As the cameras begin to focus on the monitor we begin
to hear the crowd cheering at the top of their lungs as
Matthews has Nevada down on the mat with a knee to the
small of Nevada's back while he pulls his arms backwards.
The ref is asking Nevada if he gives and Nevada yells out
in pain but nods his head no! Matthews, seeming to sense
that attempting to make Nevada submit will be futile
quickly changes strategy and pulls Nevada to his feet and
sends him to the turnbuckle HARD!! Nevada hits the turn
buckle and slumps down to the mat. Matthews approaches and
pulls Nevada back up..... he sends Nevada to the opposite
corner but Nevada puts on the brakes, turns and lunges
with a clotheline that took Matthews totally off guard and
sends them both to the mat! The image on the monitor is
suddenly frozen as Tony Ross presses the freeze frame
button.....)
TONY ROSS: This I believe was a CRITICAL point for BOTH
wrestlers. As you'll notice, they're both beginning to show
signs of fatigue and having fought nearly an hour at this
point, it will all boil down to WHO wants it the most!!
JAKE SHADES: Yeah, yeah, now unfreeze it so we can see the
damn fight! I mean DAMN, we only got footage of 2 out of 9
matches and you want to freeze it so you can analize it??
GIVE ME A (BLEEP) BREAK AND UNFREEZE IT!!
TONY ROSS: (glaring at Jake) Careful now Jake, you don't
want to aggravate that CONCUSSION Malec gave you! (clicks
the unfreeze button)
(The image unfreezes and we begin to see both wrestlers
start struggling to their feet, Matthews is up first with
Nevada close behind..... Matthews swings with a wild left
hook, Nevada ducks.... ATOMIC DROP BY NEVADA SENDS
MATTHEWS reeling in pain to the mat!! Nevada, still not
having fully recovered is slow to act as he almost
collapses on the ropes and nearly falls through them! Mean
while Matthews has gotten to his feet and he charges Nevada
and they BOTH GO TUMBLING OVER THE TOP ROPE!! They both
hit the concrete floor with a big flesh smacking thud and
just lay there momentarily. The referee, not wanting to
end the match in a double DQ begins to count with a very
slow cadence. By the time he reaches ten, Matthews is on
his feet and is trying to crawl back into the ring. Nevada
gets to his feet and grabs Matthews by one of his legs and
tries to pull him back out but Matthews turns and kicks
Nevada in the face with his free leg, sending Nevada to
tumbling against the guard rail! Matthews manages to make
it into the ring to break the count and goes back outside
to get at Nevada! Nevada, still hanging on to the guard
rail waits for Matthews to get closer and then kicks
Matthews in the shin and then follows it up with a European
uppercut that sends Matthews to the ground! Nevada then
pulls Matthews to his feet and sends him flying into the
steel stair case!! He then grabs a chair and places the
end of it in Matthews throat and begins choking him!
Nevada finally releases the chokehold and pulls Matthews
to his feet and rolls him back into the ring and follows
right after.)
VICTOR ALVAREZ: At this point, they have now been fighting

LOOKED like Malec though.... (grins)
JAKE SHADES: OWWW!! I'll get you for this Ross, you'll see!
TONY ROSS: I'm sure I will, until then however, if you have
nothing constructive to say then I suggest you just shut up
and listen!

VICTOR ALVAREZ: That was an INCREDIBLE display from BOTH
wrestlers!! Matthews has absolutely no reason to hang his
head.....
JAKE SHADES: Of COURSE he does!!! HE LOST DIDN'T HE?!?
TONY ROSS: Matthews despite the loss, was and is STILL a
GREAT competitor and I'm sure that it won't be long before
he has gold around his waist again.
JAKE SHADES: If not he could always settle for a necklace,
bracelet or even an anklet! (smirking)
TONY ROSS: You never let up do you?? Anyhow, on behalf
of the FWF, we once again apologize for the inconvenience
of ESPN's blackout of ALAMODOME, and we would also like to
thank you, the viewers, who have helped to make the FWF the
NUMBER ONE wrestling promotion on Prodigy! After ONE YEAR
and 20 cards promoted, it's now time for the FWF to move
on! The FWF would also like to thank the viewers of the
Prodigy Classic site and invite all to continue with the
FWF tradition as we travel to our new home on FW Central!
For now, this is Tony Ross, with Victor Alvarez, and a
BADLY BEATEN Jake Shades, saying thank you and goodnight!
