WWE General Discussion-November 2008
King Cucaracha replied to ChrisMWaters's topic in The WWE Folder
I think, judging from Smackdown, they might be going with a HHH/Koslov/Hardy triple threat since they didn't get to do it at Cyber Sunday. Just seems weird to have Jeff suddenly developing this aggresive streak in pursuit of the title if it's not leading to a title shot at the next PPV. In which case, I'd say Batista, Punk, Kingston, Matt and Truth vs. Orton, Rhodes, Manu, Shelton and Henry would be more likely. Or, if they go with a Matt/Henry ECW Title Match, then I guess you've got Santino/someone feuding for the IC Title, Finlay/someone suitable (maybe Knox?), or god forbid Dreamer/Swagger to replace them. -
More Future Endeavours - Dykstra, Lena, Elijah
King Cucaracha replied to dubq's topic in The WWE Folder
To be fair, and sad to say, since they decided not to give her any sort of character or meaningful role on the show, 'being Asian' was pretty much the only thing that made people realise Lena existed. -
To an extent. Working against the likes of Punk, Shelton and Orton would be more beneficial to him than working for spots against guys considerably bigger. But like HTQ said, I think they've got ideas of what Christian can and can't do already. It's up to him to do something to force them to change those ideas I suppose. I'll say this, I hold out more hope for him now, seeing both Hardys where they are on the card, Edge now a genuine main-eventer, Punk in and around there, Benjamin in and around there, Jericho as World Champion, etc.

Alright, Shelton finally steps up. Fingers crossed for new ECW and Divas Champs next week! And no new IC Champ!

If he was from the further south he could have adopted Brazil Ju Jitsu. Brazilian Ju Jitsuper Crazy?

Your British accent is confusing me but rest assured I was being facetious. From what I've gathered I, you Brits have wacky advertising policies. If WWE tries to mention a brand name or an upcoming DVD during a televised broadcast, all hell breaks loose. Thus, I assume there is also a restriction on the amount of ad time during a show (and I remember you or some Brit was watching a live stream of Raw once and getting really mad at these "super long" 2.5 minute ad breaks or so). WWE only films 88 minutes or so worth of TV, so a 2 hour broadcast in the UK would need filler. Hence, a Vault Match. Well the live Raw is basically the US feed so it's as is, with all the commercials. It's usually one commercial per 15 minutes here though, so Raw repeats and Smackdown get the From The Vault to make up the time. And yeah, they've now taken to editing out a lot of stuff. The Wrestlemania advert with the countdown to tickets going on sale, the clock's replaced with 'COMING SOON'. And every time someone refers to a day, like "Monday on Raw" or "last night at Cyber Sunday", they now edit out the Monday or the last night, since it's actually Tuesday morning and Monday morning respectively. Those edits are really beginning to drive me nuts though, since there's like 15-20 little blips of cut audio per show now. It's usually only a second or two of silence but it's distracting and a strange thing to bother editing.

Brought to you by American Express Taped: November 7th, 2008 First air date: November 9th, 2008 (check local listings for airings in your area) Announce team: Tony Schiavone and Jesse "The Body" Ventura Lead correspondent: Tony Brannigan Syndicated returns to it's unpredictable schedule (some weeks it's Saturday, some weeks it's Sunday, some weeks it gets lost in the space and time between the two and disappears into the continium never to be seen!) to bring you more of the preliminary OAOAST action you haven't been demanding! This week, the nicest guy in professional wrestling faces the nicest guy who carries a camera with him to the ring in the OAOAST, by virtue of the fact he's the only such guy to do so, as Tim Cash takes on The Beverly Hills Blonds' Simon Singleton. And in the main-event, championship action. No, don't laugh, it's true! The OAOAST 6-Man Tag Team Champions, Cucaracha Internacional's James Blonde, Faqu and Nathaniel Black defend against Jamie O'Hara and The Christ Air Express. ***Mackenzie DeCenzo -VS- Sugar Belle*** But Syndicated started with women's action and with The Money Honey. The always aloof Mackenzie was in even aloofer mood, if such a word exists, her nose turned even higher up at the crowd than usual. Having recovered from her beating a few weeks ago from Malaysia, Sugar was less outmatched physically this time. But she was still outmatched in experience. And in craftiness, as Mackenzie jumped her before the first lock-up. Mackie pounded on Sugar for a good few minutes, leading us to wonder just what had gotten The Money Honey in such a foul mood. After applying the Tramp Stamp (corner shoulder thrusts to the back), Mackie yanked Sugar down by the hair and dropped a vicious BUTT bump to further damage the ribs. Mackenzie's powered offence earned her repeated warnings from the referee though. And her momentary taking the eye off the ball to argue one warning allowed Sugar to start fighting back. The rookie unleashed some exciting offence, taking Mackenzie down with a headscissors and a monkey flip out of the corner. Sugar's spirited comeback was cut short by a timely evasion however, Mackenzie's sidestep causing her opponent to run throat-first into the top ring rope. Once to her feet, Sugar experienced a sudden Cash Flow problem, taking the Fisherman's Buster from DeCenzo and being kept down by an arrogant pin cover such was the damage done. After the match, Mackenzie's bad mood continued as she refused to let the referee raise her hand and stormed off to the back. Winner: Mackenzie DeCenzo, via pinfall OAOAST NOVEMBER REIGN 2008 November 30th; Anaheim, California LIVE on Pay-Per-View! There's more to California than LA. Don't let anyone tell you different. Hey, remember a couple of weeks ago when James Riggs was talking about wanting to get fired to get out of his contract? Well, we got a recap of it incase you didn't. Boy, the bloated roster must really be bad if people are trying to get fired. It's like people on a desert island leaping into the sea and drowning themselves because the food's running out or something. Anyway, apparantly Riggs assumed that the best possible way to get fired was to be caught engaging in illegal activities, ie. taking a moment to 'kiss the sky'. Now, anywhere else and Riggs might have got his wish. But rather than be caught in the act and fired on the spot, an exasperated Riggs was joined by about 23 other members of the roster who also decided this was a good place to pitch up and have a smokey-smoke, leaving JR to storm off furiously and leave the other stoners to it. Sup Wellness Policy. The HeldDOWN~! recap brings us rememberances of stuff that happened just two days ago! Incase we'd forgotten about PRL and Leon Rodez's attempts to co-exist and win the World Tag Team Championships from Reject and Thunderkid only for mis-communication to cost them that honour in the space of less than 48 hours, well, here it was again. Also, other stuff. ***Simon Singleton w/Ned Blanchard -VS- Tim Cash*** Hey, something that isn't a recap! Yes, it's singles action with wrestling's nicest nice guy. And predictably enough it started with an attempted handshake, which the dastardly opponent refused to engage in, leaving poor Tim to bemoan the lack of common courtesy and human decency in the world today. Singleton had no time for human decency though. He had a point to prove, as he surprised Cash with a forearm and battered him in the corner with stomps, Ned yelling words of encouragement to his partner all the while. Simon then whipped Cash corner to corner, but Tim slipped through the ropes to avoid a shoulder charge and rolled Simon up with a sunset back inside, for a close two count! The BOSS was suddenly on the defensive and a series of armdrags and roll-ups eventually drove him to the outside for a breather and conference with Ned. Which he got, as Cash gallantly refused to take the cheap option of following him to the floor. Once back inside, Simon got the jump on Cash by fooling him into going for a test of strength. Double S would then slow the match down and be patient, looking to wear Wrestling's Last Real Good Guy down rather than go in 100 miles an hour. His tactic was working well and he looked in control, until Cash started to rally from a chinlock from the crowd's support. He escaped with a judo type throw, then went on the attack, with legal open-hand strikes of course, none of those un-gentlemanly closed fists for him! A spinning back elbow was followed by an Enziguri, which got another close 2 and had Ned's heart fluttering on the floor. Desperate measures were called for in these desperate times and Singleton backed into a corner looking for a clean break and a timeout. Cash gave it to him of course, and left himself open to be dragged into the turnbuckles face-first. A back suplex set him up for the Video Voyeur to go to the top rope. But his decision to aim a full-frontal reaction shot towards the Siclopse meant he MISSED his Clapdrop Legdrop! Cash would quickly go to the leg with some kicks, before chaining a knee breaker and a release back suplex to leave Singleton set up. As he went to apply the Cloverleaf however, Ned Blanchard jumped to the ring apron. The referee's distraction never came off though, thanks to BARON WINDELS hitting the ring and hitting Ned, knocking him cold with a hard Texan right hand! Recovered, Simon tried to catch Cash by surprise with a sunset roll-up, but Cash rolled through and slapped on the Midwest Sling, eliciting the tapout and getting him the victory to heap more misery on The Beverly Hills Blonds!! Winner: Tim Cash, via submission Backstage and Jamie O'Hara, MARV and MEL said goodbye to their 20 other tripped-out friends since they had a match to get to. NEXT WEEK ON HELDDOWN~! Like it or not, one of you has to be the submissive one for a change! Submission Match Krista Isadora Duncan takes on Mr. Dick World Champion and #1 Contender come face to face Tha Puerto Rican guests, in Tha Love Shack Plus other stuff! As we returned to Syndicated, a rare treat was in store as LANDON MADDIX joined the commentary team to call the main-event. His reason for lowering himself to the B-Show, besides not being on the A-Show this week of course? Well, to evalute his troops of course. "Every month it's the same story," Landon bemoaned, "I build us up and then we end up going backwards before I can even close my mouth. No number one contendership and no Tag Titles. So I'm here to see what the problem is." "Didn't you lose at November Reign as well?" asked Tony Schiavone, to deafening silence. ~OAOAST World 6-Man Tag Team Championships~ ***Cucaracha Internacional © w/Megan Skye -VS- Jamie O'Hara and The Christ Air Express w/Melody Nerdly*** Surprisingly James Blonde started the match for the Champions, even having to order Faqu to the apron to do so. Could it be coincidence that the boss was only feet away for this sudden show of bravery out of the Canadian? Well, no. As such, Blonde celebrated his two minor victories over MARV via an armdrag and then a shoulder tackle as if he'd won the World Title. Unfortunately, Blonde's eager attempts to impress dadd... uhm, Landon, would see him fall flat on his face as MARV out-quicked him in the third exchange and sent Blonde scurrying to make the tag. A shot of Landon showed he was not impressed. In came Faqu and the mood changed as he powered MARV around. MARV would tag MEL to let him try his luck, but his twin brother was bowled around much like he was. It was only when The CAE doubled up and double teamed Faqu that they made progress. After softening Faqu up, a double dropkick sent him through the ropes to the floor. Blonde was then backdropped over the top rope onto his partner, before the brothers Nerdly would wipe out Blonde and Faqu with stereo suicide dives!! That left Black and O'Hara standing and the old enemies went at it in much more physical fashion, trading strikes. Black got the better of that pretty quickly and went for a big lariat, only for O'Hara to use a hurricanrana to send him out of the ring. O'Hara then took flight with a Springboard 450 Plancha which brought the crowd to their feet!! And Landon too, with hands on hips. Once the action got back inside it was MEL and Blonde, with MEL on the attack. He and MARV interchanged and executed some seamless double team offence, ending with a high-low pair of dropkicks, earning them a 2 count on Blonde. MARV then looked to deliver the Acid Drop. As he climbed the turnbuckles though, Blonde managed to shove MARV off, over the top rope... and into Faqu's waiting arms, popping him up and delivering a SAMOAN DROP ON THE ARENA FLOOR!!! MARV's splattered body was thrown back inside the ring and from there Cucaracha Internacional were in control, allowing Landon to relax significantly on commentary. Blonde assumed control, which seemed to annoy Black just a little, directing traffic as the Champions worked MARV over. And it looked bleak for the challengers, as Black would turn MARV inside out with the Black Lariat. But, before Black could go for the cover, Blonde demanded the tag. Black seemed rightly confused and by the time he eventually gave in, after much prompting, Blonde's attempted pinfall was only worth 2. The incriminations continued between Blonde and Black, allowing MARV to sneak over and make the tag to Jamie O'Hara! A dropkick to the back sent Blonde into Black, who fell from the apron. O'Hara then hit top gear and started to overwhelm Blonde with his speed, almost getting the win off a Standing Corkscrew Moonsault. Faqu came in at this point and looked to shut O'Hara down, but MARV and MEL jumped in to try and fight him off, sparking a good old fashioned pier-six'er. As the fight broke down and the referee struggled to get the illegal men out of the ring, Black would re-enter the ring and look to deliver the Black Lariat on O'Hara... but he ducked and FAQU got hit! The big Samoan went down but popped right back up, right into Black's face! The crowd erupted as it looked set to break down between the two, drawing Landon off of commentary and around the ring to try and reason with them from the apron. But he would go flying down to Megan's feet as O'Hara went over the top and onto the apron with a kick, then hit a Springboard Heel Kick back in on Faqu, who collided with Black. Both men went out of the ring with O'Hara soon out after them via a Space Flying Tiger Drop. Which all left Blonde stranded in the ring. He soon had MEL set up for Illegally Blonde regardless. However, MARV made the save by grabbing his twin's free arm from the apron, causing Blonde to hit the mat empty-handed. As Blonde staggered up, The CAE sent him to the Pearly Gates with the Flatliner/Enziguri combo. With the fans already going wild, MEL would then pop his brother up onto his shoulders and throw him down across Blonde with the senton, Sent From Above, the hook of the leg leading to the 1, 2, 3 and NEW CHAMPIONS, despite a despairing lunge from Landon to try and make the save!!!! Winners and NEW~! OAOAST 6-Man Tag Team Champions: Jamie O'Hara and The Christ Air Express, via pinfall The fans went wild in the aisles as MARV and MEL bailed out, taking hold of their newly acquired titles and rounding up O'Hara to join in the celebrations. In the ring Landon watched all this with his head in his hands and his jaw laying somewhere on the floor. And there he stayed, frozen in shock, as The CAE, Melody and O'Hara's celebrations continued to Syndicated's closing credits.

COLE Life as an OAOAST Women's Champion isn't all about live events and title defences. Especially not the last one. And especially if you're the daughter of a mainstream superstar! Early last month the OAOAST Women's Champion Jade Rodez-Duncan was lucky enough to step out with her own stardom and tread the red carpet at the premiere of Disney's High School Musical 3 with little sister Maya. Unfortunately, restraining orders prohibited me from being there too. But now that that court case has been settled we can now bring you Molly Nerdly's exclusive red carpet footage, let's take a look. Uptempo music plays over the various pans of the exciting, young crowd and shots of the movie's stars arriving. MOLLY (V.O, w/Best Auditioning for E! Job Voice) The glitz and glamour of a movie premiere. An electric cornicopia of excitable energy. But on this occassion, there is a certain childhood innocence to Tinseltown. Even the hardest heart inside the oldest cynic can't help but be swept up in this atmosphere... shame Krista refused to attend really. More shots of the movie franchise's stars. MOLLY (V.O) Everybody who's anybody who's in High School Musical 3 is here. Ashley Tisdale. Vanessa Hudgens. And one guy who looks suspiciously like Spencer Reiger. We then see shots of some of the invited celebrity guests, eventually including the Duncan children. Looking a little shell shocked Jade very carefully walks the carpet in a more glamourous than we're used to associating her with purple dress, no doubt filled with fears of an embarrasing trip on an upturned piece of red felt. She squints as the flashbulbs go off all around her, blinding her with bright unexpected lights. Maya on the other hand seems much more comfortable with the screaming crowds and waves out a few times. Another shot sees the Duncan girls being interviewed by various, non-Molly Nerdly reporters. Jade doesn't seem too thrilled with all the on-camera appearances though, repeatedly worrying about her posture and state of her dress, no doubt the result of a long red carpet ettiquette talk from mother. MOLLY (V.O) Amongst these famous faces are two of Hollywood's most famous beacons of childhood innocence. Jade Rodez-Duncan and suspected child genius Maya Blanchard Duncan were among the lucky people related to celebrities who had children to give their tickets too. And after the movie, we caught up with them for a special chat. Cut to later after the movie, where the crowds are slightly calmer and smaller now, allowing Jade to relax just a little more than before. Maya looks completely excited with her night, while Jade seems eager to keep her on a tight leash having been left in charge of her, preventing her from running off and apprehending another celebrity by grabbing her wrist, then forcing a smile for the camera again. MOLLY So how have you enjoyed the day girls? JADE Oh, you know, it's been really fun actually. I wasn't expecting so many people! Heh! It's my first movie premiere you see and there's lots of screaming and lots of lights, but I enjoyed it once I managed to get my bearings back. And I got to meet some nice people that Maya introduced to me as well. I never imagined myself being invited to something like this. It's been fun. Good fun. MOLLY And where is Krista tonight if you don't mind me asking? JADE Oh, she... uh... was busy. With other projects? MAYA Plus she refused to come since she thinks any movie aimed at the child market must automatically insult her intelligence. Not to mention her dislike for all things of a happy exuberance, especially when it's in song and dance form. So she gave Jade her ticket. Hi Mommy! Miss you! MOLLY Aw. MAYA Hey Molly, look, I got Zac Efron's autograph! Maya produces the piece of paper and as Molly goes to have a look, she pulls it away. MAYA Hey grabby! Look with your eyes, unless you're willing to meet my asking price. Ya know, once it's been copied it a few hundred times. Alix has already got them listed on eBay, so it's a good job I came through. Unlike SOME people. I told Jade to ask for his telephone number, but she was too chicken. JADE I told you, he's got a girlfriend Maya. It would have looked bad. MAYA Well I couldn't very well have asked him, could I? Realising the sibling arguement is good material, Molly double-checks she's got the right shot before appearing back from behind the camera with her own forced smile. MOLLY So now you've mingled with the stars and you've seen the movie, how about you give us an appraisal of the movie? What did you think of High School Musical 3? MAYA Sometimes a shamelessly immature and proudly irreverent bubblegum pop movie is all you want out of your life. High School Musical fits that role and then some! From the very first leering closeup of Zac Effron shaking off sweat on the basketball court before bursting into a song, its clear that this film like its predecessors is one gigantic sappy marshmallow, and its absolutely delicious. Efron’s co-star Vanessa Hudgens has charm, style and voice, and gives female prodigy Ashley Tisdale a run for her money as most talented songsmith on an already exceptional cast. High School Musical is a chance to salute the masters of song and mirth one last time. Take it. Though candy coated on the outside, High School Musical is after something you don’t often find in multiplexes overran with Chihuahuas and superhero flicks. An insight into the human condition. The film is a synecdoche, a figure of speech that indicates a part standing for the whole. In this case the part of a high school graduation and the uncertainties that go with it stand for the whole of the uncertainty that hounds human life from its very conception. Our lives are not stagnant, they are organic and pliable lifeforms and though we make plans we never truly know where the next moment in time will take us. All we can do is be like Troy and Gabriella, love the ones we’re with and remember them fondly when they’re gone. In that way High School Musical 3 is a lesson worth learning for students of all ages. JADE I like the dancing. MOLLY That's great, thanks girls! -BACK TO THE ARENA- COACH Okay, Jade just flat out fails at life. I ain't even gonna be subtle about it. COLE Well she's not got much of a future as a movie critic. But she was hardly failing, or hanging onto Krista's coat-tails which I see you've already written down ready to use in a second, if you ask me. Jade enjoying some of the perks of being OAOAST Women's Champion. Those perks might not last much longer though, as we found out during the week due to her victory at The Halloween Spectacular, Malaysia Nerdly has put herself in line for another Women's Title shot. She will get that shot at November Reign. And, get this, by challenger's request it'll be no disqualifications, no count-outs, a California Street Fight! Jade could be in some big trouble come November Reign! COACH Man, even I might not want to watch that massacre. Or, then again, maybe I might! But I might feel guilty about it afterwards. A little.

Backstage in the In Crowd locker room we find Leon Rodez getting ready for his main-event match later tonight. Leon pulls his elbowpad up with a snap, before slicking his hair into place in the mirror, in which we see both Zack Malibu sat across the room on his Blackberry. Which may account for some of the many styling products lined beside the mirror. ZACK I'm sure Melissa'll approve. LEON Har har. With his hair styled to military precision, Leon grabs his robe off the hanger and starts to pull it on. LEON We'll see how much she approves of me kicking Reject's BUTT tonight, how about that? I mean, I'd hate to think that if Reject lost his belt tonight she'd ditch him and find another meal-ticket to mooch off of. How tragic that would be. Still, you sleep with dogs, you gotta expect to wake up with fleas, know what I'm saying? ZACK Says a man speaking from experience. LEON Hey, I never slept with Melissa! Leon sorts his robe out, smoothing out any creases. LEON I mean, I don't think I did, it gets confusing sometimes. ZACK You're telling me. LEON Hey, have you ever noticed how all the Nerdly's names begin with an 'M'. How weird is tha... Trailing off, Leon turns away from his reflection to see Bohemoth entering the locker room. Clearly having come straight from a workout session elsewhere in the arena, Bohemoth sets his bags down and wipes the sweat from his brow. BOHEMOTH What's happenin' guys? ZACK Johnny Bravo here's getting ready for his Tag Title match. BOHEMOTH With PR? Heh... good luck with that. Leon raises an eyebrow. Not in the way a certain person would, but still. LEON Good luck? That's not a piece of cautionary advice by any chance is it? Look, I've dealt with PRL before bigman. I know what he's like. Or, was like. Whatever. But that's all water under the bridge. He seems like he's turned a corner since dumping The Lightning Crew, I'm happy enough to take the guy at face value for the night. ZACK Yeah, but, this is Tha Puerto Rican we're talking about. BOHEMOTH Exactly. LEON Would you guys lighten up? Jeez. If this is what being in the World Title scene does to you, turns you all bitter and jaded, maybe I oughta rethink this number one contendership thing. Just because we're opponents at November Reign, doesn't mean we can't go out there tonight and take the World Tag Team Titles off of Thunderkid and Reject and enjoy it, does it? Bohemoth and Zack glance at each other with very dubious expressions on their faces. LEON Look, all I know is, last month I was getting kicked in the nuts by some Nerdly girl and was constantly arguing with my girlfriend Nerdly girl about being friends with another Nerdly girl. Life stunk. Then, I took in some 'home movies' with a fan of mine... who also happened to be a Nerdly girl. Now, I've got a shot at gold tonight and a shot at the World Title at November Reign. So it could be worse. A smile forms on Leon's face. LEON Yep, everything's finally going my way. And I owe it all to casual sex! Leon breezes past Zack and Bo and out of the room, leaving at them to look at each other again. BOHEMOTH That's your kid's godparent. ZACK (sadly) I know.

"The World Is Mine" greets us back to HeldDOWN~! A wealth of flickering and flashing spotlights that alternate between entirely red and entirely white blast their way across the entrance stage. The lights on the floor then turn blue cutting through a thin haze that fills the stage. Stepping into this tranquil mist, Spencer does an arrogant twirl before doing a quick Timberlake style dance. He saunters down the ramp, cloaked by a bright white spot light to contrast the flashing blue and red "SR" shaped illuminations on the entrance ramp. BUFFER The following contest is set for one fall! Introducing first, from Manhattan, New York. Weighing in at two hundred and ten pounds... "THE ONE MAN TRIPLE THREAT"... SSSSSPPEEEEENNCCCCCEEEEEEERRRRR... RRRREEEEEEEIIIIIGGEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! At the bottom of the ramp he picks out a young fan who's clearly pro-D*LUX judging by the Shayne and Tyler action figures in her hands. Already she's giving Spencer the thumbs down but against form, he presents a peace offering. Reiger unfolds a glossy D*LUX poster. Not just any poster, but a [i]signed[/i] one! The young girl can't believe her luck... and soon learns the lesson that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is, as Spencer TEARS THE POSTER UP RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER EYES!!!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" COACH Oh my word that's the greatest thing I've ever seen in my life! The poor girl is comforted by her father, as Spencer yells "AND SANTA'S FAKE TOO!" as he climbs into the ring. There he goes to the top rope and rips open his Ed Hardy hoody to show off his body as the lights rapidly and endlessly switch from red to blue to yellow to white. COLE What a jerk this kid is. COACH I dunno, I like him. COLE You would. As Reiger continues to rile the crowd, "Makes Me Wonder" by Maroon 5 hits. Out from the back bounds Shayne Brave, with a less bounding Tyler backing him up. The green denim clad boybander slaps hands a-plenty on his way to the ring, with Tyler joining in just a little even if he's in the role of back-up tonight. BUFFER And his opponent. Accompanied to the ring by TYLER BRYANT! Hailing from Detroit, Michigan... he weighs one hundred, eighty three pounds... one half of D*LUX, he is "SHOWTIME"... SSSSSSHHHHHHAAAAAAYYYYNNEEEEE... BBRRRRRAAAAAAAVVVVVEEEEEEEE!!!! "YYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" D*LUX apparantly had monitors within eyeshot while they were wating backstage, as they find the wronged fan from earlier and give her hugs. Which cheers her up just a bit. COLE Aw. Isn't that nice to see? COACH Where I came from there's laws against that kinda thing. *DINGDINGDING!* The bell sounds and Shayne quickly gets the crowd clapping. Spencer shows what he thinks of that, with some mocking clapping of his own before giving the fans the 'up yours'. "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" Spencer gives up at this point and locks up with Shayne. Side headlock applied and Shayne in control to the delight of the crowd. The taller Reiger picks Shayne up and looks for a back suplex, but a few wrenches on the head see Shayne safely back down onto his feet, executing a headlock takeover. Spencer applies a headscissors to escape, but Shayne just as quickly floats over to his feet. COLE Two fine young athletes here, personalities aside. Looking unimpressed, Spencer picks himself up and they lock-up again. This time Spencer trips Shayne up and transfers into a wristlock, nodding confidently. But Shayne kips up and armdrags Reiger over! Shayne executes a second armdrag. And a third. And that's quite enough for Reiger who bails to the outside. Calling for a timeout, he heads back over to torment the girl D*LUX fan again! But Tyler steps in to protect the little girl's honour. Spencer mocks him for that, before turning around to find Shayne defending honour also, with some right hands! COLE This Reiger has a real attitude problem. This guy's gotten a little preferential treatment and special attention because he's talented. And now, he clearly thinks his stuff don't stink and he's the best thing since sliced bread. COACH It's called confidence. If you were talented, you'd understand. Reiger rolls back into the ring to escape the right hands, Shayne looking to follow. Spencer catches him in between the ropes with a knee though. Pulling Shayne back inside, Reiger executes a scoop slam, then drops down and applies a blatant choke in front of the referee (who isn't Charles Robinson!) "ONE!" "TWO!" "THREE!" "FOUR!" Reiger breaks the choke, telling referee Jack Doane to 'talk to the hand'. He then closes the hand up and drops a fist, making a cover... 1... 2... No. Spencer pulls Shayne back up, delivering a right hand. And another. With Shayne backed in a corner, Reiger drives a knee before sending him across the ring. After giving an 'up yours' to Tyler, The Prodigy charges but Shayne gets a knee up! Then a boot to the midsection. Popping onto the middle rope, Shayne then drives both boots into the spine of Spencer, causing him to faceplant into the mat! "YYEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!" COLE That's the Showtime Stomp! As Shayne whips the D*LUX fans up, his attentions are taken by LOS CONQUISTADORS, who have appeared on the entrance stage, clouded in smoke! The smoke would be slightly more intimidating if we didn't see a stagehand running off with a bucket of water in hand, having just set off some dry ice though. COLE Now, what are those goofs doing out here? COACH I wouldn't call them goofs if I were you. Not unless you want your eyeballs to melt and bleed into your socks, leaving you only able to see out of your big toes. And then die. Shayne points to the 'voodoo warriors', before he lands a dropkick on Reiger and covers... 1... 2... No. Back up, Shayne sends Reiger into a corner. He then charges... but missed a corner attack and ends up clattering into the turnbuckles, as Los Conquistadors wave their hands around mysteriously. COLE Don't even start. They had nothing to do with it. COACH Interesting that your first thought was to deny it though, isn't it? Reiger has left the ring and stands on the apron working out the kinks in his back. Before the referee's count can get too high, he then runs down the apron and delivers an enziguri to the back of Shayne's head from the outside! COLE Ooh, nice move from the rookie there. Spencer quickly follows up with a pin attempt... 1... 2... Kickout! Setting Shayne back down, Reiger measures him... and measures him some more... before dropping a well-measured knee on him. On the ramp, Los Conquistadors begin to chant low under their breaths, which seems to confuse even Reiger. COLE You know, they could well be putting a spell on Reiger for walking out on them during that 10 Man Tag the other weeks. COACH I thought you said you didn't believe in that stuff. COLE I did... I mean, I don't... this is what I get for humouring you. Reiger continues to look confused as he pulls Shayne up and underhooks an arm. He takes too long underhooking the second though, allowing Shayne to backdrop his way free! Reiger gets back up and aims with a right, but Shayne blocks and lands one of his own. Right blocked, right from Shayne. And again, Shayne finally getting the upperhand and hitting the ropes. Reiger cuts him off with a boot to the gut on the rebound though before spitting in Tyler's direction. COLE Oh that's classy. The ever-confident Spencer eventually looks for an irish whip. But Shayne manages to reverse and catches Reiger coming back with a Leg Lariat!! COLE Oh, that might shut Reiger's mouth for a little bit. "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" "LET'S GO SHAYNE!" Tyler gets the crowd rocking behind his partner as he fights to his feet. Instantly Shayne heads for the turnbuckles, specifically the top one. Reiger picks himself up and dusts himself off, both complete wastes of time as Shayne soars off the top with Flying Clothesline to put him back down! Cover... 1... 2... NO! COLE Kickout by Reiger. Like the kid or not, he's been making waves and what a coo it would be if he could pick up another victory over an established OAOAST superstar in Shayne Brave! COACH The world is gonna sit up and take notice of Spencer Reiger Mikey. They ain't gonna have a choice! Shayne turns and points out Los Conquistadors as their chanting continues, then turns his attentions back to The One Man Triple Threat. Backing in, Shayne applies a 3/4 facelock, looking for the Shaynedrop... but Reiger catches hold of him. Picking Shayne's legs up off the mat, Spencer launches his opponent away across the ring. COLE Nice counter there by Reiger. Coming down hard, Shayne lets out a squeal of pain. And he stays down. COACH Well Reiger had that move scouted, the kid's got brains. Maybe he's more than a triple threat, maybe he's a One Man Fatal Four Way... or something. Spencer goes to follow up on Shayne, but with the boybander lying on the mat and writhing in pain referee Jack Doane backs New York's Finest up while he checks on his condition. Clear concern shows on Tyler's face as he rounds the ring besides Shayne who clutches his arm, kicking his feet. Suddenly the fans begin to quieten, as even Reiger looks on. COLE I think Shayne's hurt here. COACH Well he might have landed awkwardly when Spencer threw him, but... yeah, this don't look good. With the referee checking on Shayne, Reiger moves forward again but Doane backs him up and gives him a talking too. Meanwhile Shayne, with pain etched on his face, starts to try and sit up. That's enough to get the action going again... for about five seconds, before Reiger comes off the ropes and slams his knee into Shayne's face! COLE Blood Is The New Black for Spencer Reiger. Quickly, Reiger covers Shayne up... 1... 2... 3!! *DINGDINGDING!* Some scattered boos go up, as Spencer rolls off of Shayne who goes back to favouring his arm. Tyler immediately slides in to check on his partner as Reiger celebrates, albeit noticeably muted before he leaves the ring. BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, your winner of the match... SSPPEEENNCCCEEEEERRR... RRREEEEEIIIIIGGEEERRRR!! COLE A win for Spencer Reiger, but... this doesn't look good for Shayne Brave I'm afraid. Tyler tries to calm Shayne down as we EMTs hitting the ring. COLE This is not what anyone wants to see. COACH No. I mean, I'm no big D*LUX fan but you hate to see anyone get hurt out here and unfortunately it looks like what's happened. COLE Okay, well we can only hope this isn't as serious as it looks right now. We'll be right back. As Shayne is attended to, we cut to a commercial break.

BUFFER The following contest is your HeldDOWN~! main-event of the evening! Set for one fall, it is for the OAOAST One And Only WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!! The crowd cheer for the rare televised title defence and the fact they fluked out by it happening in their city. The cheers then intensify seconds later as "Rock The Casbah" by Trust Company hits. Sliding through the entrance way, Leon Rodez soaks up the adulation of the crowd before pointing his way on to the ring. BUFFER Introducing the challengers! First, from Grand Rapids, Michigan... weighing in at two hundred, eighteen pounds. "THE NEW-AGE LOVE MACHINE"... "THE GRAND RAPIDS GOLDEN CHILD"... ladies and gentlemen, the new number one contender to the World Heavyweight Championship, "SILKY SMOOTH"... LLLLLLEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOONN... RRRRRRRROOOOOOODDEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZ!!!! "YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Leon enters the ring with a big smile on his face, passing out his expensive ring robe before climbing the turnbuckles to salute the crowd. COLE The rejuvinated Leon Rodez in fine form, here tonight in Milwaukee! But he will have revenge on his mind I'm sure the moment he locks eyes with Reject. [b]"THE CHAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMP..."[/b] [i]*DUN DUN*[/i] [b]"...IS..."[/b] [i]*DUN*[/i] [b]"...HERE!"[/b] Suddenly, a lightning bolt hits the entrance, the PRL entrance video plays on the AngleTron, and "Know Your Role 2000" begins playing, with the crowd standing up and cheering. PR is heard saying, "THE CHAMP IS HERE!" throughout the song, while smoke fills the entryway and strobe lights appear on the entrance set. A few seconds elapse before Tha Puerto Rican appears to a rousing cheer! BUFFER And the partner! Hailing from San Juan, Puerto Rico... weighing in at two hundred and twenty pounds. He is the reigning One and Only AngleSault Thread WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION... ladies and gentlemen, this is THHHAAAAAA PPPPPPPUUUUUUUUEEEEEEERRRRRRTTOOOOOOOO... RRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANN!!!!! "YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!" Tha Puerto Rican climbs to the ring apron and pauses for a second looking at Leon, before spinning himself into the ring. Leon steps back into a corner as Tha Puerto Rican does the HBK muscle pose while pyro goes off behind him. PRL then heads to a second turnbuckle and raises his title belt. He then heads to another second turnbuckle and raises the belt again. COLE Tha Puerto Rican with the chance to bag double gold here tonight and become the first man to hold both the World Heavyweight and World Tag Team Championships at the same time. PR hits a third second turnbuckle, and raises his right arm in the air and "smells the electricity" a'la The Rock. PRL does the same Rock pose on the fourth second turnbuckle, recieving boos. Tha Puerto Rican gets off the ropes, removes his sunglasses and earring while the lights go back on in the arena. COLE We are taking our final commercial break. When we come back, the World Tag Team Championships are on the line! Don't even think about changing that channel unless you plan on changing it back again! [b]*COMMERCIAL BREAK!*[/b] As we return to HD, we see the challengers stood in the ring, both waiting for their opponents but standing a distance apart. COLE And welcome back to HeldDOWN, where we are moments away from our main-event. And it's my pleasure to be joined at this time by Wrestling Hall Of Famer Jesse Ventura to help call this match, it should be most intriguing Jess. VENTURA No doubt, it's gonna be interesting to see how PRL and Leon Rodez manage to co-exist considering what lies ahead in their future. And what effect is The Halloween Spectacular going to have on all four of these guys after the gruelling matches they took part in less than a week ago? "The Wall" by Kansas hits, and the lights go out. After a few seconds, amidst a cloud of yellow smoke the figures of the World Tag Team Champions appear. Plus, one other shapelier figure. Thunderkid marches ahead, with Reject a couple of steps behind, one arm wrapped around Melissa Nerdly. Both have smug grins on their faces as they see Leon watching them from the ring. BUFFER And the opponents. Making their way down the aisle, at a combined weight of four hundred and eighty pounds... representing The Deadly Alliance! They are the reigning and defending OAOAST Tag Team Thampions of the WORLD... the team of TTHHHHHUUUUUNNDDEEERRRRKKIIIIDD and RRRRREEEEEEEEEEJJEEEEEEEECCTT!!!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" TK and Reject climb into the ring in parallel corners, TK jumping onto the buckles, while Reject turns and poses in the near corner, Melissa stood at the ropes displaying her man like a Price Is Right item. TK and Reject then meet at mid-ring and hand their belts off to the referees. VENTURA Now I've got nothing against OAOAST President Josie Baker and no denial that this should be one hell of a HeldDOWN~! main-event. But I can't imagine this match has gone down well in the Deadly Alliance camp, when you consider Reject and Thunderkid are under a week removed from surviving that Fatal Four Way title match with the belts. I can guarantee they weren't expecting when they arrived at the arena tonight to be defending their gold again so soon... and against the World Champion and number one contender no less! COLE That's what being Champions is, or should be, all about Jesse. Being able to defend against top competitors. VENTURA I understand that Michael, but Reject and Thunderkid will have faced The Heavenly Rockers, Blonde and Faqu, Zack Malibu, Leon Rodez and Tha Puerto Rican in under a week! That's a hell of a schedule whatever way you look at it. If they retain their titles tonight I don't think anybody can deny them the best team in the wrestling world today. The belts are displayed to the audience by referee Charles Robinson as the teams take their corners. Reject holds the ropes for Melissa to leave, but not before she blows Leon a mocking kiss. The Silky Smooth One adeptly catches it and offers it to PRL, who turns it down with disgust, to Melissa's annoyance. *DINGDINGDING!* With the bell gone Reject is ready to go. On the challengers side there's a bit more of a conversation, before PRL finally steps aside and lets Leon get what he wants, or more specifically who he wants. COLE Alright, here we go! I can tell you, Leon has been waiting for this ever since he got screwed inside the Steel Ca... Right on cue and before anyone comes into contact, Reject tags Thunderkid and steps out to the apron. "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" COLE Oh, come on! VENTURA Easy Michael, they've probably got a strategy. COLE Yeah, a strategy to save Reject's BUTT from what he's got coming to him! Hands on hips, Leon can't help but smile a pained smile at falling for it. Thunderkid gets his attention with a shove to the chest and tells him to concentrate on him, not his partner. Which Leon does by delivering a surprise Rolling Sole BUTT to the midsection! Leon begins to unload with forearms and backs TK into the ropes, looking for an irish whip. Reversal by TK though and Rodez goes for the ride. On the rebound, Leon baseball slides through the legs as Thunderkid sets himself, tripping the feet and faceplanting TK! Leon hits the ropes at the side, going up and over TK's roadblock. The 250 pounder quickly jumps to his feet and shows his agility with a leapfrog! VENTURA Wow! That's no easy feat! As Rodez rebounds again Thunderkid sticks out an arm and looks for a hiptoss... but Leon turns into it and counters with a monkey flip! COLE Neither is that! As TK pulls himself up, Leon wrings the arm and makes a tag to a cheer from the crowd. Tha Puerto Rican scales the turnbuckles with Thunderkid held at bay and drops The People's Axe down across the outstretched arm, then takes over with an armbar. "P - R!" "P - R!" "P - R!" "P - R!" PRL finds a moment to soak the chant in before Thunderkid's power advantage kicks in. Backing PRL up against the ropes TK forces the clean break, then reneges on it by delivering a bodyshot. And another one. Tag made and boos for Reject as he steps in, while TK executes an irish whip. PRL hangs onto the ropes on the other side and stops himself though, forcing a charge from TK and a backdrop over the top! In charges Reject, but PRL ducks a clothesline. Leapfrog by PRL, then a reverse leapfrog, before catching Reject with an armdrag and hanging onto the arm. Tha Puerto Rican applies an armbar and glances to his corner, where Leon has his hand outstretched. COLE Reject might have bought himself a stay of execution, but not a long one. Pulling Reject up, PRL makes the tag... ...but before Leon can get in, Reject manages to deliver a knee to escape the armbar and scramble to the outside! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Melissa rounds the ring to check on Reject, comforting him as he complains of a sore arm. Her concern is soon for herself though and she runs for cover, as Leon leaves the ring and POSTS REJECT!! VENTURA OH! COLE Reject is a head in the poles! VENTURA Election's over dummy, whatever humour that joke might have once had is long gone. Staggering around ringside, Reject rolls into the ring trying to get away. Leon is on his tail though and slides in as well. To his feet, Reject wheels around with a big right hand but Rodez blocks it and lands with a jab! Block, and a jab! Block, jab! A jab! Rodez turns, blowing the kiss... spotting Thunderkid charging towards him and sidestepping. The World Tag Team Champions collide heads and both roll out of the ring to collect their bearings. That draws in PRL, as Leon launches himself over the top with a PESCADO on Reject! PRL meanwhile delivers a Baseball Slide to Thunderkid, reaching up from the apron and skinning the cat back inside ALL FIRED UP~! "YYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!" COLE And it's the challengers who are bossing this match so far! VENTURA It's still early days, but they're looking pretty good at the moment I'll give them that. PRL heads back to his corner as Leon brings Reject back inside. Irish whip sends Reject for the ride, hit with a beautiful standing dropkick! Cover... 1... 2... No! Leon measures Reject... *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" ...and chops him back into a neutral corner! *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" A second chop lands. *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" And a third. Reject then gets sent corner to corner, Leon setting up for the Superman Spear. Out of the corner dodges Reject, but early enough for Leon to bail out of the dive. Head still down he goes upside down in the corner, landing on his feet on the ring apron. Running down the apron Leon then comes off the opposite buckles with a Steamboat-esque Crossbody! 1... 2... No! As Reject scrambles up, Leon grabs him in a side headlock. Reject quickly shoots Leon off into the ropes and grabs a hold of Robinson's shirt, distracting him while Melissa reaches into the ring and trips the ankle! COLE Come on, this conniving woman's got no business out here! Rodez turns around to confront Melissa and Reject charges... but Leon doesn't fall for it and catches Reject with a drop toehold across the middle rope! The crowd rise up as Leon does THE JIG~! and the referee keeps his eyes firmly on Melissa, leaving her unable to help Reject escape from Leon's path, as he drives his bodyweight into the spine! COLE Call That Bitch Bojangles! With a smirk Leon returns Melissa's blown kiss from earlier, then rolls Reject up... 1... 2... No! VENTURA The Champions have gotta get it together here. Rodez and PRL might not be a tag team, but they're two of the top stars in the OAOAST. COLE And very capable of taking these Tag Team Titles here tonight! Which for PRL would be his first OAOAST Tag Team Title. VENTURA And you know why that is, don't you? COLE No, why? VENTURA Because the guy can't be trusted! COLE Oh I don't know about that. Maybe once upon a time. Leon drags Reject to the corner and makes the tag to Tha Puerto Rican. PRL comes in with a boot to the midsection, then lands with a punch. Despite being staggered, Reject manages to come back with a knee to the gut though. He then grabs PRL and shoots him off the ropes. Reject misses with a clothesline though, then gets knocked down with a Flying Forearm! PRL kips up, then knocks Thunderkid off the apron with a punch. COLE Shot to Thunderkid, no love lost there either between he and PRL. With Reject closing in, PRL quickly turns around and executes a Russian Legsweep. Cover... 1... 2... No! PRL starts delivering some more punches as both men regain their feet, then lands with a boot and looks for an irish whip. Reject reverses though and directs PRL towards Thunderkid who has just climbed to the apron. The illegal man lands a knee to the back, but PRL turns around and knocks him off the apron again anyway. Tha Puerto Rican then moves away from the ropes... and Reject NAILS him with a running forearm across the top of the head! VENTURA Big shot by Reject, a Luger-esque forearm. And loaded arm or not that's gonna scramble your brains. COLE And the distraction by Thunderkid giving the World Tag Team Champions the opening. Returning to the apron TK tags in. Picking PRL up off the mat, he delivers a short-arm clothesline and goes for a pinfall... 1... 2... No! Thunderkid hangs PRL up on the ropes and starts to go to work with some heavy right hands. Shots to the head and the body weaken PRL until the referee steps in to pull TK away. That sparks an arguement, allowing Reject to walk over and starts choking PR across the top rope! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" VENTURA And now the Tag Team Champs are still to get into their stride. COLE By cheating. VENTURA They haven't been caught yet, have they? They haven't, as Reject is back to his corner looking all innocent by the time the referee turns around. That leaves PRL at TK's mercy, shot off and DRILLED with a Bicycle Kick!! "OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!" VENTURA Man, he just levelled him with that boot! Thunderkid hooks the leg... 1... 2... Kickout! Despite getting out PRL still looks dazed and TK traps him in a rear chinlock. Slapping the turnbuckle Leon starts to get the crowd rallying behind the World Champion, which gives him the energy to climb back to his feet. He delivers an elbow to the gut. A second. And a third. Tha Puerto Rican then goes to hit the ropes, just as Reject makes a blind tag. And as PRL charges back, Reject cuts him down with a lunging clothesline before making an eager pin... 1... 2... No! REJECT COME ON! Reject leads PRL back up, delivering a right hand. And a second. PRL is on wobbly legs, as Reject then delivers a spinning heel kick to the face! Down goes the World Champ, while Reject turns around and nails Leon, drawing him into the ring. COLE Come on, cheapshot by Reject! VENTURA Hey, turn about's fair play, PRL did it to Thunderkid first. As Leon tries to alert the referee to what's going on behind him, the Champions get on with it. Thunderkid steps in and elevates PRL into the hangman's hold, leaving him wide open for Reject's roundhouse kick! COLE And that move has broken ribs ladies and gentlemen, the Champions could be about to retain their title again here. Reject makes the cover, slapping his hand on the mat as the referee is slow to react... 1... 2... NO! "P - R - L!" "P - R - L!" "P - R - L!" "P - R - L!" Reject and Thunderkid make another exchange, TK clubbing away on PRL as he steps in. The World Champion tries to draw off of the crowd's support but Thunderkid is just too strong and scoops PRL into his arms for the Fallaway Slam! TK crawls over and hooks the leg... 1... 2... NO! COLE Another kickout from PRL, the gutsy World Heavyweight Champion will not give in without a fight. VENTURA And you notice, Leon's in no hurry to jump in and help out his November Reign opponent. Coincidence? COLE He was just trying to jump in a minute ago! VENTURA And all he did was distract the referee while PRL got kicked in the ribs. Coincidence? COLE You're getting as bad as Coach. Picking PRL up, Thunderkid delivers a big European uppercut. PRL falls down against the ropes breathing heavily, not realising how close he is to the corner. He does eventually spot Leon's hand hovering his way and makes a move... but TK is alert and drags him away by the ankle before the tag can be made, then drops an elbow to the back. Thunderkid then sits down across the back and locks PRL in a Camel Clutch. COLE Good job Thunderkid was paying attention, or we mi... *SLAP!* COLE OW! What was that for? VENTURA You said I was as bad as Coach. And I don't like being insulted. As TK pulls back on the head of the World Champion, the camera's cut to Melissa Nerdly who is approaching the challengers' corner. With her best look of innocence she crawls her fingers across the apron and starts to try and FLIRT with Leon! Referee Robinson quickly orders her back to the Champions corner... ...but not before the Tag Champs have taken advantage of the distraction and pulled a switch, Reject now applying the Camel Clutch! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Robinson looks surprised to see Reject in and asks if there was a tag, foolish enough to believe Reject when he says there was. In the midst of all this, PRL starts to try and fight back up, again with the crowd on his side. He manages to force his way back onto his hands and knees, so Reject jumps up and drops his weight down across the small of the back. The R-Man grins as he re-applies the hold but PRL starts to fight up again. So Reject drops the weight down again, pointing to his head before locking the clutch again. VENTURA Am I the only one with a bad feeling about this? Still PRL is fighting though, so Reject lets him go again. He leaps up, spreads the legs... AND LANDS ON PRL'S KNEES!!!!! "YYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!" VENTURA Yeah, thought so. Melissa covers he mouth in shock as Reject covers something else up entirely. He manages to get the tag to TK though, who's able to cut PRL off from the tag on his end! Leon is JUST out of reach before PRL is dragged away, TK giving Leon a shot to take him out of the equation. Thunderkid then catches PRL coming in, pressing him over his head. The powerhouse walks around the ring picking his spot to slam Tha Puerto Rican... ...but takes too long, allowing PRL to squirm a way out, landing on Thunderkid's shoulders and pulling him down with a Hurricanrana!!! The crowd pop... and then erupt, as PRL rolls and gets the tag to Rodez!! "YYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE There's the tag, in comes the number one contender! As TK picks himself up on the ropes, he finds himself leant over the middle rope and drilled with CALL THAT BITCH BOJANGLES~! Holding his back he climbs off the ropes and turns around into Leon's path, The Silky Smooth One tucking and rolling with the clothesline, then going for the cover... COLE Shack Attack, could be all! 1... 2... NO! Thunderkid pulls himself back up, but walks right into a jab! A jab! A jab! A jab! Rodez turns, blowing the kiss, before turning back on his heels... *SMACK!* ...and nailing Thunderkid in the back of the head with the enziguri! COLE MAMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT! VENTURA Rodez is on fire here! Leon drops down looking to make the cover again, but out of the corner of his eyes he spots Reject staggering his way and jumps back up, going to work on him with right hands! He backs Reject up into a corner and scales the turnbuckle, pointing to Melissa before unloading some more... "ONE!" "TWO!" "THREE!" "FOUR!" "FIVE!" "SIX!" "SEVEN!" "EIGHT!" "NINE!" "TEN!" Jumping off the turnbuckles Leon sees Melissa giving him a scathing look and aims some PELVIC THRUSTS in her direction!! COLE OH MY! VENTURA Think he forgot which sister's which again? A thoroughly appaled Melissa turns away, which at least means she misses the DOUBLE NOGGIN KNOCKER~! that the Champions are on the recieving end of. Recovered, PRL then re-enters the ring and delivers a clothesline that knocks Reject up and over the top, to the outside. COLE There goes Reject, Thunderkid is in big trouble! Realising this, TK lunges with a desperation clothesline, but Leon ducks... *SMACK!* ...AND PRL CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK!! COLE BAM! PRL then steps out of the corner, as Leon hooks up Thunderkid. Scaling the turnbuckles, The Silky Smooth One pushes off the top... and DRIVES TK into the mat with the Shiranui, hooking the leg as PRL stands guard... 1... 2... 3 - NO!! "OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Leon questions the count, then holds his head in his hands as Robinson says it was only two! COLE NO, ONLY TWO, ONLY TWO!! Oh my, I thought it was over! And I don't think I'm the only one in this arena! VENTURA We were less than half a count away from crowning new World Tag Team Champions! With no pinfall to celebrate PRL hits the ropes and leaves the ring. And how, aiming at Reject with a TOPE SUICIDA... ...but MISSING, as Reject barely dodges out of the way, with a certain Nerdly's help!!!! "OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!" VENTURA PRL, crashing and burning! COLE Thanks to Melissa, that girl is an absolute pest! In the ring, Leon sends Thunderkid into a corner and follows up delivering the Superman Spear! As TK staggers out of the corner, Leon then trips the legs and looks to apply the Liontamer! TK refuses to be turned left, so Leon goes right... but TK again refuses to let himself be turned. And eventually he's able to use his leg strength to push Rodez off... RIGHT BACK INTO CHARLES ROBINSON!! VENTURA There goes the ref! Leon turns around in surprise, allowing Thunderkid to bowl him over with a big forearm shot. COLE Well the referee is down here, which doesn't bode well for anybody if you ask me. Anything goes at this point. Waiting for Rodez to get back up Thunderkid crouches down in a corner. Amid shouts of warning from the crowd Leon picks himself up and turns around, to see TK charging in towards him with a Bicycle Ki... DUCKED! Rodez avoids the pumping legs and catches Thunderkid with a jumping back heel kick! Down goes TK and Leon dives on top for the cover, only to realise that there's nobody to count. There's just Reject, who stomps him in the back of the head. COLE Hey, what is this now!? What Michael Cole has noticed is Melissa Nerdly, commandering a STEEL CHAIR from the timekeeper's table. And as Reject mounts Leon to dish out some right hands, Melissa gets The R-Man's attention and slides the chair in to him! COLE Steel chair and no referee around to see it, don't tell me Reject's going to screw Rodez out of another victory, not like this! VENTURA You mean like how Leon continues to screw around with Melissa's sisters? He's got it coming if you ask me. COLE I'm pretty sure I didn't. Smile on his face, Reject retrieves the chair and taunts the crowd about what he's going to do. He tests the chair on the turnbuckle a couple of times, before turning suddenly and charging at Leon... ...who DUCKS the chairshot and delivers a dropkick to the chest! Down goes Reject and up goes the chair, landing near Leon's feet. The Silky Smooth One looks down and with the Milwaukee crowd encouraging him, he slowly picks the chair up and lines up Reject! COLE Oh wait a minute here, Leon has the chair! And it could be payback for The R-Man! VENTURA Oh so when Leon has a weapon it's 'payback' and okay, I get it. COLE After everything Reject and Melissa put Leon and the women of the OAOAST through in the past couple of months? You're damn right it is! Leon seems to be weighing it up in his head as he clutches the chair, Melissa running around ringside to plead with him not to do what he's thinking of doing. But spotting Melissa simply makes his mind up for him. And he weilds the chair, waiting for Reject to get back up. The R-Man has no idea what's waiting for him as he gets to his feet, taking a moment to steady himself before he turns around, Leon winding up... ...NO! THUNDERKID GRABS THE CHAIR!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" As Reject hits the mat in self defence, Thunderkid and Leon engage in a tug of war over the chair. They go back and forth trying to gain possession... ...until finally, TK lets go, causing Leon to wheel around... *CRACK!* ...AND SMASH THE CHAIR OVER THE HEAD OF THA PUERTO RICAN!!!!!!!!! COLE OH!! WHERE DID PRL COME FROM!? VENTURA Did he mean that? COLE WHAT DO YOU MEAN DID HE MEAN IT!? VENTURA I mean just that and quit shouting at me, would ya!? Leon looks shocked, instinctively dropping the chair. With his back turned he then gets blindsighted by Thunderkid, who pitches him over the top rope. Thunderkid follows him outside, while in the ring Reject looks up and wonders how he avoided get hit in his prone position. No time to worry about that though, as he sees PRL struggling to get to his feet. Reject slides himself into position and stalks PRL, who eventually reaches his feet... ...and gets spun around into the EULOGY~!!!!!! COLE And don't tell me the Tag Team Champions are gonna steal this one! Reject makes the cover and Charles Robinson has enough wits about him again to make the count... 1... 2... 3!!!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" *DINGDINGDING!* Reject rolls out of the ring and right into the arms of Melissa Nerdly, raising an arm overhead in victory, no matter how it came about. BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, your winners of the match... and STILL OAOAST WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS... RRREEEEEEJJEEEECCTT AND TTHHUUUUUUUNNDDEEEERRRKKIIIIIIIDD!!!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Handed their belts, Reject and Thunderkid raise the titles over their heads before Reject gets another prize, a big smooch from Melissa! Leon looks up from ringside and hangs his head disappointed with what just went down, which is probably nothing compared to how PRL would be feeling, if he weren't laid out. COLE By hook or by crook, mainly crook, Reject and Thunderkid are still the World Tag Team Champions! It took an errant chair to the head and a Eulogy for Reject to pin the World Heavyweight Champion, but I'm sure that doesn't matter to them one little bit! VENTURA [i]Errant[/i] chairshot? COLE Oh please Jesse, Leon Rodez isn't like that. VENTURA He was happy enough to try and nail Reject, wasn't he? And you know, Alf has been talking about this fifth Deadly Alliance member... COLE You have GOT to be kidding me on that one! Leon picks himself up on the outside, watching Reject and TK's celebrations, before turning to the ring. PRL is still laid out and Leon holds his hands on his hips, as the closing credits pop up and we [b]-FADE OUT-[/b]

Crazy'll probably be happier and more successful in Mexico. I assume AAA, from my limited knowledge of Mexican wrestling, is his natural next move.

they would never of worked as a heel/face
King Cucaracha replied to chrislatimer's topic in General Wrestling
When they debuted at Hayes' side, they were really just 'there'. They probably came up on the heel side of things but they didn't really do anything that stood out as heelish. They were heels throughout the TIT tournament as the New Brood, but again they never really did anything heelish. It was just through association. They got pops for the big moves and that was it, until the Ladder Match which turned them face. It might be different now people have connected to them though. I think Hardy the character would work as a heel with the storylines people have been suggesting. But I don't see Hardy playing a convincing heel character. Matt was different, you could always kinda see him as able to change characters. Jeff is just himself. And that's great. It's whether he could stop being himself and play a heel effectively. -
Watched the Derby game on Sky and Attwell's a disgrace. You could just see how eager he was to book the one Forest player for time-wasting. Clearly a celebrity referee with an ego, it doesn't help that he's also the FA's golden child of refereeing. He can do no wrong in their eyes so he gets away with all these awful decisions.

King Cucaracha replied to chrislatimer's topic in General Wrestling
I just watched Survivor Series 2005 the other day and you can't tell me he wasn't over. The babyface character wasn't working out well and it wasn't his strong suit, but people were behind him well enough then. Jeff as a heel is the one that instantly comes to mind. At the moment he's just basically himself more than playing face. Would he work going against type and playing a character? I don't know. -
We'd certainly consider that, yeah. Otherwise it's a long time without anything going on around the board.

Well, at a loss for actual constructive feedback, I give you my random observations and comments of The Halloween Spectacular. Heartland Hootenany: Ah, nothing says fun like a big multi-man chaotic opener. Unless you're writing it. Not entirely sure I kept up with everything without a map to hand or personal experience of the venue, but it was entertaining whatever was happening! With a huge wacky roster like ours, these matches always work. Hilarious. I can just imagine Warrior pumping his fists like a maniac as the train very slowly pulls away into the distance. Warrior's one of our greatest characters and he only ever shows up in these things. Maybe that's why. I hope the baby stroller was unoccupied. Lots of entertaining chaos, all over a switch to open a gate. It's like a TNA gimmick match would be if they realised their own camp value! Hmm, I originally thought Sandman was in the match, shows how much attention I pay. Anyway, very entertaining start and a good bit of roster management from Alf. CW vs. Baron: It always amuses me how Coach and Cole can go from semi-competent wrestling announcers to a completely insane pair of characters and back again depending on the segment. It beats their run on SD. Many LOLs at the Stewie Griffin t-shirt being more over with the fans than some of the roster. You don't treat a t-shirt like that if you're a real man. I had to look up 'puissance'. I have failed. This was a nice change of pace, a perfectly good midcard match. And I mean that in the nicest way, honestly. $8.99 for a wrestling figure? I'm thinking it must be an accurate price since Zack's got the inside track, but I would have thought a brand new OAOAST figure would be more than that. Boy, that must be a hell of a figure collection needed to own every OAOAST superstar, nevermind alternate attires. Zack/Moneymaker is sizing up pretty nicely. You know, if it happens. Wink wink. COD/Mr. Dick and Malaysia: Hey, I wrote this one! The, quote, 'semen geysers' weren't my idea though. You go to Patty when you want that kinda entertainment. Stay classy LA. Jade getting tied up in the ropes was gold. Middle School Musical: I have just one question... where the fuck did Beck come from!? I got halfway through and I swear he wasn't mentioned, then all of a sudden he's banging on the window! Zack getting two interviews, that's what happens when you're feuding with eight stables at once. Next week, Vinny Valentine and Biff Atlas bust on The In Crowd! Nice little exchange, interesting to see where it leads. Sandman vs. Denzel: Again, a nice little match, nothing needlessly long like my matches. Glad Sandman retained too. This Heartland Title reign could carry on for a long time and I'd be perfectly happy, he is the division. 4-Way Tag Title Match: Nice way to write Sly out. Uhm, again. I'm ashamed to say I don't know what the Outlaw rule is in reference too. Once more I have failed. A ton of chaos in this one, plenty of entertainment for all and maybe Sly wasn't written out after all! What do I know? Another big win for Reject too. Jereme vs. Ragdoll: Cole worrying about warmth when confronted by a lady in a skimpy costume, continuing his sometimes homosexual, occassionally assexual OAOAST persona. I'm tailing off here with usefullness at the end, but this was some interesting story progression, gets CMJ across nicely. 5-Way Match: Well it's half mine so I'll just say Ed did a hell of a job finishing it off. I really struggled getting into any sort of rhythm writing my part though for some reason. MOTN: 5-Way Prism Match, even though I wrote half of it! OMGTHECORRUPTION~! LOTN: "My addiction to those very same gummy vitamins ruined my career and destroyed my family." Maya Duncan Blanchard Truest LOTN: "Its interesting how the OAOAST works. Jock Mulligan began has career as a silent, respectful, moderately dressed cowboy struggling to make a name for himself. Now, he's a vulgar, mean spirited jerk and we can see his cock ring through his tights." Michael Cole Return OTN: "Please. I have aids."

Matt Hardy with the new ECW Title. I liked it on Mark but on Matt, it looks a little too big and too dark. -
workers who get called great but you disagree

HEY! ROH fans do tend to chant a bunch of stuff that isn't worth chanting, just for the sake of chanting, that much is true. Not just in regards to Danielson. To me, Danielson is great because he's creative and adapts as well as anyone. He's able to work a number of styles and work them well, heel and face. I've seen him have a match which consisted of an 8-9 minute headlock and a roll-up and he made it work. I've seen him have a 5 minute World Title match end on a flash pin and make it work. I've seen him work comedy (the knock that he doesn't have a personality is misguided) and I've seen him work as a cowardly old school heel and do it as well as he does 'straight' wrestling. People peg him as a boring technical wrestler but he can do so much more than that. I don't know as I'd call him the actual best in the world, but I'd probably put him somewhere up there. I think I said it in another thread about DiBiase, he didn't have many standout matches in the WWF but the problem was he never really got the chance to have those matches. So many of his matches ended in non-finishes, COs or DQs. He didn't have many classic matches, but he played the role he was given brilliantly, so you have to be able to seperate 'great wrestler' from 'wrestler who has great matches', to a certain extent. I'd put Jake Roberts in the same role. Excellent worker, few really great matches. -
As has my match. My one of 2 and a half matches that is. Hence why it's only being edited in now.
