COLE In his FIRST AngleMania Match, Skull Mask faces Charlie Hoss. What a sick sick man... CABOOSE Yes I am! Err wait, you meant Charlie Hoss. He sucks! COACH What an honor for these men to start off AngleMania 3! *The Helddown music plays as the fans all stand to cheer on Charlie Hoss. Hoss explodes through the curtain looking fired up for what is in front of him.* ANNOUNCER: Making his way to the ring! The Helddown Chief of Security......CHARLIE HOSS!!!! *The fans all cheer as Hoss jogs down to the ring and rolls under the bottom rope exploding to his feet and pumping one fist at the sky.* COLE The fans are looking forward to this one alright guys! A battle of the big men! COACH A good old fashioned slobberknocker as a certain fat man would say. CABOOSE Not even in joking are you to ever say that. *The fans cheers quickly become boo's as "Scarecrow Man" by the Misfits begins playing. The green lights fill the arena as smoke rolls out onto the stage. Skull Mask slowly walks through the curtain with a stoic look on his face. He raises his arms over his head still showing no emotion and then begins his slow walk to the ring.* ANNOUNCER Making his way to the ring! From Mexico City! Weighing in at 320 pounds.........SKUUUUUULLLL MASK!!!! COLE I don't know what this guys deal is. He shows absolutely no emotion. I have never seen anything more than the expression he holds right now. *Mask steps over the top rope and enters the ring as the lights come back up. He steps to the middle of the ring and meets Charlie Hoss face to face. The fans all stands and the camera's start flashing as the two big men are eye to eye. Hoss's whole body is shaking as he stands there talking trash to the emotionless statue. Finally Hoss just hauls off and slaps Mask across the face.* COACH HERE WE GO! Caboose Not wise by Hoss........not wise. *Mask staggers back a few feet and then returns with a huge haymaker staggering Hoss. The fans all go nuts as the match begins with Mask punching Hoss into the ropes. Mask irish whips him out and goes for a clothesline but Hoss ducks and comes back with hard body block that knocks Skull off his feet. Hoss begins laying the boots in as Mask tries to roll out of the way. He starts to get to his feet but Hoss continues to punch away as he stands eventually punching him into the corner. Hoss irish whips him into the opposite corner and follows in with a big avalanche. The monster slumps in the corner as Hoss starts laying elbows in while Mask lays in the corner. Hoss steps back as Mask staggers out of the corner towards him and lifts him up and powerslams him back down. Mask shows no evidence of being in pain except for grabbing his lower back. Mask tries to sit up but Hoss pulls him back down for the cover. 1!!!!!!!!! 2!!!!!!!!!! Easy Kick out.* CABOOSE Nope you aren't going to put him away that easily! COLE Hoss is being very aggressive in the early going. COACH Some of those blows look like they can shatter bones and Skull Mask is just taking them. CABOOSE And they don't appear to be hurting him at all. *Hoss pulls Mask back up and delivers a couple of hard clubbing forearms to his chest. Mask kind of staggers to the ropes and Hoss decides to irish whip him again. Hoss goes for a clothesline but the crafty Mask ducks and comes back with a thunderous lariat of his own. The fans boo as Hoss hits the ground like a truck just ran over him. Hoss starts to come to but Mask pulls him up from the mat and delivers some hard throat shots. The ref admonishes Mask but quickly backs down when Mask's stare pierces through him. Hoss is backed into the corner as Mask delivers a couple of more knifing throat shots.* COLE Come on! He's jabbing him right in the throat! COACH You jump in and tell him to stop. COLE That's the ref's job......and I don't want it in this case! *Mask steps into Hoss and starts choking him in the corner with his elbow. Hoss begins to flail as the ref works his way around and notices the blatant choke and finally steps in to break them up. The ref has to get really low and get in between them but he finally manages to pry Mask off of Hoss. Charlie begins coughing in the corner as Mask moves the ref out of the way and comes back with some wild punches in the corner. Mask pulls him out and pulls him down delivering a high vertical suplex. Mask goes for the cover.* 1!!!!!!!!!!! 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hoss kicks out! COLE That was close! COACH Charlie Hoss has a lot more fight left in him. COLE You know guys. Charlie Hoss has been the victim of Damaramu and his crew so many times I think this match is his revenge. His chance to finally fight back against this group of monsters. CABOOSE Well his revenge doesn't appear to be going to well. *Mask starts to choke Hoss with both of his hands on the ground as the ref administers the 5 count. At 4 Mask releases and then goes right back into it. Finally after a couple of 4 stops the ref gets Mask to back off. Mask pulls Hoss back up and sends him into the ropes. Hoss comes back and is immediately met with a hard spinebuster that seems to drive everything out of him. But Mask doesn't go for the cover. Instead he pulls Hoss back up and picks him up as if getting ready to deliver the powerslam. Instead he runs to the corner and slams Hoss back first into it and then spins out with a hard slam. Now he goes for the cover.* 1!!!!!!!!!!! 2!!!!!!!!!!!! 3!!!!!!!!!NO HOSS KICKS OUT! COLE Charlie Hoss still has some life in him! COACH That was one of the hardest Oklahoma slams I've ever seen! I thought they were going to tear down the ringpost! *Mask just stands up and pulls Hoss back up. Hoss stands there staggered and looking half alive as Mask boots him hard in the stomach. He pulls his head between his legs and gives the signal for the helicopter sit out powerbomb. Mask tries to lift him but Hoss drops to one knee. Mask continues to try to lift him but Hoss pulls his legs out from under him and slingshots him over the top rope to the floor! The fans all cheer as Hoss follows him out and the battle has spilled to the floor. Hoss delivers a couple of hard blows and then starts to send Mask into the steel steps but he reverses it and sends Hoss flying in shoulder first. Hoss grips his shoulder as Mask runs in and pulls him up delivering a couple of shoulder blocks that run Hoss's back into the steel steps. Hoss grabs his back in agony as Mask sends him back into the ring.* COLE This is just brutal! Mask is unrelenting. COACH Hoss seems to be taking his shots pretty well. Keep watching! *Hoss makes it to his feet and delivers a couple of elbows to Mask's stomach as he comes in. The fans all cheer as Hoss comes back up with some hard elbow shots to Mask's face backing him up. Hoss gives and irish whip and catches Mask up over his head in press slam position! The fans all stand as Hoss displays all his power!* COLE LOOK AT THAT STRENGTH! CABOOSE Jesus! *Hoss begins to shake though as Mask begins to move. Mask reaches down and rakes Charlie across the eyes causing Charlie to drop him and bend over clutching at his eyes. Mask staggers back and then regains his bearings pulling the blinded Hoss into position for the helicopter sitout powerbomb.* COLE This doesn't look good! *Mask quickly lifts Hoss and then spins around with such speed snapping Hoss around as he comes crashing down to the mat!* COLE WHAT IMPACT! COACH And speed! *Mask cinches in the cover as the fans all boo.* 1!!!!!!!!!!!! 2!!!!!!!!!!!! 3!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S OVER! DING DING DING!!! ANNOUNCER Ladies and Gentleman the winner of the match..........SKULL MASK! *The fans all boo as the green lights and mist fill the arena again while Skull Mask stands and stares up to the heavens.* COLE It's like he's praying again! COACH But praying to who!? CABOOSE Damaramu. COLE What? CABOOSE Damaramu is the most evil man alive. Some say he's the devil in disguise. I wouldn't put it past him to have brought a worshipper of his into Helddown to be his goon. COLE Worshipper!? *The fans continue to boo as Skull Mask lifts his hands up to the sky and continues to stare at the heavens.*

what is that in reference too? cause i've voted democrat once (zell miller, great governor) this basically as i see it has to do with freedom something neither party really seems to give a damn about these days

Wow, so shirking made the news. Not like this isn't rampant in the private sector too.

The smart solution? Gov recognizes all civil unions. It does not recognize marriage Churches and other religious institutitions can then choose whether to perform the ceremony or not given their ideas. This way, churches that dont view gay marriage as legitimate dont have to recognize them. Sadly, simple and easy aint the goverment. Fun fact: Gay couples stay together longer, have happier households, and have higher incomes than straight couples. This makes perfect sense, because sacrifice and stigma (Iannaconne, 1998) affect returns. Why can't we just attach a warning label (like churches do with suicide now) and say "We can't tell you if you're gay you're still get into heaven. We don't think so, and you've been warned. But even so, we still love you? That's what they do with suicide today...Used to not be that way

Logic defeats zombie movies You're thinking too much...I do the same.

Eh...They're good, but they lack depth in their subs

Theoretically, its possible that of the N audits the IRS does at random every year for the whole population one could get away each year *yeah...right, studies show that it isn't all that random* To get around this problem, the fines for NOT filing a return are quite stiff, hopefully to get the expected value of not filing a return negative. In short, what would happen? They'd figure out how much in taxes he/she owed for this year, and then ask for previous returns. When those can't be produced, not only are they going to garnish money, buddies' going to jail for tax evasion...its not exactly a short sentence

JR Gentleman...and ladies! Welcome to ANGLEMANIA 3. I'm Jim Ross alongside my old time broadcast partner and friend Jesse Ventura. Jesse And hopefully not much longer! JR What's that supposed to mean? Jesse Exactly what I said. Hopefully not longer! Fans, this old bloat was going to tell you about our quality IntenseZone matches tonight, but frankly, I think he's been on his knees way too much for Stephen Joseph and AngleSault recently, so you know that tonight, The Great T-Bod will destory AngleSault and Dan Black will be victorious in the House of Mirrors match. JR ...Son of a ... Jesse Calm down barbeque boy. You'll be able to yell and scream about Puerto Rican Lightning too. But onto the other team, two men who really know each other well, if ya get what I mean...Caboose and...Michael Cole JR Where is Cole? Cole (climbs out under the HeldDown Announcing Desk) Right here! JR What were you doing under there Michael? Jesse Keeping his job right Caboose? Caboose (smiles) Cole(Flustered) Coach Hey Guys, What'd I miss? Cole(Ignoring Coach) What a great night tonight, with Zack Malibu Caboose *cough* LOSER Cole(Ignoring Caboose) taking on Calvin Szechstein for the World Title. Let's send it to Josh Matthews, backstage with our World Heavyweight Champion himself, Calvin Szechstein! We fade to a shot of Matthews and Calvin, standing in front of the OFFICIAL AngleMania III backdrop. Calvin wears an icy expression and a FUBU jersey as Matthews begins. MATTHEWS Josh Matthews here, with World Heavyweight Champion Calvin Szechstein. Calvin, you've dealt with Zack Malibu a lot over the past year or so, with him stealing the Endorsed Girl, Candie, and you stealing the World title. Now, you hold three victories over Zack Malibu, but you yourself have never actually pinned him, and he has never pinned you. CALVIN Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I pinned him once. MATTHEWS Nope... he won a ladder match against you, there aren't any pinfalls in ladder matches. You won a ladder match against him, the same as before. In the Elimination Chamber, Zack Malibu was pinned by Puerto Rican Lightning, and in the Royal Rumble, you pinned Dan Black to retain the title. There has never actually been a pinfall exchanged between the two of you, which means tonight could be considered the rubber match. What are your feelings going into tonight? CALVIN Josh, my feelings tonight are self-explanatory. I am sick and tired of not getting the respect I deserve as OAOAST World Heavyweight Champion. The only thing I haven't done, it seems, is pin Zack Malibu, but tonight, I guarantee you that will happen, and next year come this time I'll be defending the belt against Crystal, while Zack Malibu will be nothing but a distant memory. Mark it down. Calvin walks away calmly, and Matthews looks into the camera. MATTHEWS Harsh words from Calvin. Let's send it to the ring!

grenades people lots and lots and lots of grenades

Cmon Fellas..Join the GT wagon...I mean, they are the highest seed left in their bracket...I'd much rather play nevada than gonzaga givem hell

Eh, humanity wouldn't have had its last stand yet anywho. You've got hundreds of military boats (battleships, carriers, submarines)etc...that were probably out on patrol and thusly no dead virus there, plus all the cruise ships. Their communication networks would still be working (satellites aren't gone). It's very concievable that a few decent military bases (51, Cheyenne) could survive. So there's plenty of living people alive for a sequel. All it would take is a bunch of ships getting together, clearing an island, and setting up shop there. So eh, end of the world hardly. The society in chaos element in the beginning imho the only really worthwhile part. I wonder how quickly society would collapse faced with some crazy plague (not zombie mind you, but more stand-ish)

In the beginning, there was an imaginary beltshot. Nonconsequential, the result of one's lust and another's hatred. Much like cancer it spread to others, setting a trend of reciprocating endless mock attacks, some spiteful, most playful. It spread to others, and to others from there. AngleMania The unlikely uncanny, little post that could. A coronation ceremony for one, but a shout, a cry, a beacon of awareness to many. Here we are, this is who we are. Beltshots. The beginning of a trilogy, and everyone involved had no idea what could come next. AngleMania II The OAOAST at its absolute peak, having recovered from a canyon of despair. A moment in which a new man wore the crown...leader...and many more still bitterly upset at those who strode at the top. But for every dark blemish, beauty was abundant. A magnificent stroke of pen, fancy, and the never was or ever will be. A dream realized, a nightmare abated...The mighty had arisen, stolen thunder, and had laid a claim that this was no fad, but something...that lasted. Our child had indeed, grown up. Now the last of the trilogy...the herald of an end? Or the beginning of a new spring? Time cannot tell, but the eventuality must eventually...end. Now though, admist further strife, the OAOAST renews itself for another year of beltshots. Time will...time will tell if a new crown is worn. AngleMania III The grandest showcase of what can never be. Here the old and the new mix, the melding of wild dreams cast against a backdrop of white, black, and a computer screen. We know each other, yet we know nothing. That, this, the esssence of the OAOAST, is what dreams are made of. Whatever that is, it exists between ourselves, and our portal into our flights of fiction. Welcome to the greatest trilogy we never knew.

Oh. Burn dood. (that make you happy Supes?) FS, you're a pretender, a wannabe. Several people here know how to get under someone's skin. You? You're like the guy in Offspring's "Pretty Fly for a White Guy". No, not the singer. He's cool. You're the white boy. I speak for everyone. Go the fuck away

Oh cry me a river.

I'm sure you did. Seeing as how it was conviently left out that quite a few people were pissed off about it Where was SP's thoughts, Tony's, AngleSault's, Eskimo's, PRL's and the others? That's right...they weren't Congrats, you're the Fox News of TSM. Fair and balanced my ass.

That's a heavily biased piece. Let it die.

Zack.... Guys, there was already a booking thread for Anglemania three in the IZ folder. We rotate where we put the thread each month and this month was IZ's turn. =) Guys, post your matches in the AM3 booking thread in the IZ folder so there's no confusion. I want to be sure to leave everyone with their own post for their match. Word. thanks sjp EDIT: To Sound nicer, edits made. I was just trying to make sure I had everything in one thread, not to yell...oops

Tony accidentally took me off the mod list. He forgot my username had changed. And I didn't delete the thread boys.

I concede the point... SKBF hasn't stalked anyone...yet +)

SKBF aka PRL had a very negative reputation on the board, but he came in and has done an outstanding job with his characters on iZ. It is our policy to let anyone who expresses interest in. Sometimes we get great people, sometime we get disasters, and mostly the newb loses interest quickly. That's why Game came in, and if he had gotten people to actually feud with him, he might've stayed. The OAOAST accepts anyone, and I hope that is how it stays. If a mod that has powers, rather than myself who doesn't have all of them (I got hit with kryponite so I lost some abilities, chuckle), then they should close this. It doesn't add anything.

Uhh Thoth... I was serious. Your sig is funny. I laughed. And as for the rest...well, I guess we will just agree to disagree on how to handle things like this then. I don't our opinions changing, and arguing about it wouldn't serve any real purpose.

Thoth, I'm being respectful to you, so I'd appreciate it you'd respectfully reply to me. I didn't edit your post. Like your sig. I got a chuckle out of it. That's funny ha-ha. If I was the only one who agreed with my actions, I'd concede a point. But, given that guys from AngleSault to Tony agree that it was past a point of good taste, I'd say that must mean something. Maybe we do things different down in OAOAST-land than in the SWF. Both can be proper ways of doing things, so I'm not knocking your system. The decision to remove the material was a decision made by the OAOAST mods. Of which I am one, and I did ask for it to happen. If I acted of my own volition, then I probably would have been stripped of mod duties there. You have your opinion. I have mine. Let's drop this and go back to our respective feds and do some good things there.

We've moved on. Read Zack's post for further discussion. Closed because nothing useful is going to come of this thread again. Calvin EDIT: Unlocked so I can say something kinda useful... "Closed, bitch." Locked again.

Ugh. JSYK - Sorry. I thought I had PM'ed you. The Key didn't work, I had a different version than the 6 that it was for. That is my bad and you should think I'm ungrateful for it. If the apology means anything, there you go. I did appreciate the effort though. AnglePlex - Thanks. I appreciate you taking what I said into consideration. To be honest, if her parody hadn't of been in there but some random chic with no affiliation to me, I would have laughed my ass of at it. I will grant you that. I'd gladly tell you why it set off alot of buttons and be entirely honest with you because there's no way for you to have known, but I'll do that through PM and not here. FrigidSoul - It would help if you could spell correctly. Look, I tried to make this a non-issue with you. I might find your humor funny if I was in middle school. Yeah, she's imaginary all right... /sarcasm. Your wit in insulting my fiancee is more tasteless than the match. You're actively flame-baiting me right now. Thoth - You said it yourself. Ex-girlfriends. Fine. This was my fiancee. We're getting married decently soon. I'm slightly protective and on edge about that. It is slightly different. I'm not saying you have to agree with what I say nor that you even need to understand it. I'm just asking for that opinion to be respected. Should I have flown off the handle? No. Could I help it? Probably not. It would be really helpful for the OAOAST if we'd just drop the whole issue here and now. Zack's done good putting things back together and I'd really like to concentrate on AM3.

Thank you Peter. As per it's possible sharing, Tony149's deletion of the material and subsequent posting against its viewing should be the guide here.
