Zack Malibu

Also bear in mind, this will be the first special event cross-posted at The Pit! And we have a few people interested over there in working on new characters and stories, so feel free to give those guys a heads up if you have any ideas on working with them.

This is fitting, given that Striker used to work an impersonation gimmick in 3PW (Blue Meanie's indy) and Macho was one of the guys he worked as.

I never thought I'd say this up until this past year, but I could easily see Robert Roode and James Storm having a high profile, main event feud against each other in TNA within the next 2 years.

Make sure to remember that the cross posting begins with HeldDOWN~! tonight. Also, give a brother a hand in the introduction thread there, as we have a few interested people, some of whom have already put up specs.

A longer post will follow (I'm at work) but as far as more people being involved, there's been a bunch of people using the OAO thread over there already. It could lead to something more down the line, who knows.

Roode was used for Heat/Velocity duty a few times back in the day, IIRC. I vaguely recall a tag match he worked with Tyson Dux (another Canadian/D'Amore guy) as partner.

I believe Sapphire (the gimmick, not the woman who played her) was originally supposed to be portrayed as a hooker/"lady of the night".

Lance Russell was in the arena for the Lawler/Funk Empty Arena match, which is regarded as a classic. It's not like TNA is screwing up their own gimmick.

I believe it was The Main Event, leading to Savage winning the tournament at WM4. Honky's been known to do a lot of embellishing, but this is pretty much as close to the truth as it gets. It was also stated somewhere that he willingly did the jobs as he got shunted down the card, doing business right by "paying back" the talent he put over, so I'm wondering where along the way he became the bitter veteran he is now.

I don't think it was so much Sabin being fed to him as it was giving him a debut against one of the few guys with no match that could carry him. Rhino improved greatly over the years, but not to the point of carrying a match, IMO. And at least they didn't pull what WWE did to Mordecai and Kenzo Suzuki and feed him to someone that made him look like shit and killed him out of the gate.

I'm wondering if Orton "struck his own deal" with the Smackdown heels to come out and attack Undertaker so that he can escape, only for Shane to come running down the ramp and throw him into the ring for Undertaker to chokeslam/lay him out.

There was indeed a rumor about Clarke and Adams doing a gimmick as "Demolition 2000". I want to say it was roughly before they became Kronik, because it was more plausible it could happen, as Adams would have been in WCW for 2 years and Clarke for 3 at that point, so it seems that when it comes to contract status, they'd have been able to jump.

I have stuff to go into the episode, but they're limiting access at work right now, so it's been harder than usual. I'll get it in ASAP.

I believe it was just a sidebar incident that went along with the Coraluzzo/Heyman/Gordon promotion feud. I don't recall it being anything personal against Shane, just a case of Dennis attacking the oppositions talent.

Depending on when the show goes up, can space be left for a Zack segment, a flashback piece from Zack, and a DJ Giant Jesus segment? Plz thnx. Also, regarding DJ GJ, I'd like to start building him up a little more now, so if anyone has a free character open to a rivalry or angle of some sort, shoot me a PM.

Been a few weeks, so here's another one, this time dealing with the death of one of wrestling's legendary rulebreakers, Rick Rude. At the time of his death, Rude was working in WCW as a heel manager/associate to the NWO, and closely aligned with real-life friend Curt Hennig. Rude hadn't wrestled since a back injury put him out of action in 1994. He disappeared for a while, resurfacing in early 1997 in an ECW angle where he appeared under a mask to make life hell for Shane Douglas, despite his trademark voice making him the worst Mystery Man in history. The angle was then changed to have everyone play it up that they knew it was Rude, but when it was time for the unmasking, Douglas' Triple Threat ally Brian Lee was under the hood (and Rude was disguised as a riot cop, an idea the WWE stole many times). Then it was on to the original DX, where he was their "insurance policy", and then finally the legendary night where Rude was on a pretaped RAW and on a live Nitro, having left the WWF in the wake of the Montreal incident. At the time of his death, Rude was rumored to be training for a comeback, hoping to return to the WWE upon expiration of his WCW deal for one last run. Rumors buzzed that he would immediately be programmed in a top program with Austin, as the WWF didn't have an abundance of credible top heels at the time. So that's where today's discussion comes in... ...what would have happened if Rude made it back to the WWF? Would he feud with Austin? The Rock? Foley? Would he have an amazing final run in the company, or would he be considered past his prime, and lost in the wake of the rise of the new stars? Honestly, I could see him getting a major run as a top heel. He could have been a worthy payoff to the Higher Power angle, as he was someone with a legitimate past with Austin. The WWE "main event brawl" style would also serve well to protect Rude's nagging injuries from the past, and I think he would wind up having an amazing feud both in the ring and on the mic with The Rock as well. He'd probably also wind up taking on Foley as well, another guy he would have had a past with from WCW. Towards the end of his active run (I wouldn't foresee him still wrestling actively now) I think they might try a face run and a feud with Triple H based off their DX past. He'd probably be used to help put over Randy Orton during the Legend Killer run, and then Rude would settle into one of the authority figure/commentator/semi-active wrestler spots. So, what do you guys think Rick Rude would have done had he come back to finish his career out in the WWF?

It was pretty well known he had tried, or was trying, to get out of his WCW contract near his time of death. He wanted to end his career in the WWF, probably due to all the political manuevering and people like Bret getting lost in the shuffle at the time in WCW. I believe even WOW Magazine (the short lived hybird of a wrestling magazine and a dirtsheet) at the time even noted he was looking to return to the WWF.

Was it last year or the year before that Demolition and One Man Gang were in it? I always meant to check that out.

As I had told Patty, apologies for me being a part of the delay, but I was sick for most of last week. Thanks to Patty and Tony for giving me a hand on wrapping things up.

Jim Norton, Rich Vos, Nick DiPaolo, Louis CK, Bob Kelly...pretty much any of the guys from the Opie and Anthony crew really. In fact if you want some good comedy, you can usually find torrents called "Opie and Anthony Worst of the Week" on the Sundays/Mondays, which has the best parts of the prior weeks broadcasts broken up.

I'm getting the vibe of Austin vs. Orton at Wrestlemania. Something tells me that either Stephanie or Shane, being 3rd generation McMahons, will start backing the Legacy. McMahon, looking for revenge on Orton and for the betrayal of his children, seeks out his last resort...Stone Cold Steve Austin. Of course, why would Austin help Vince is another matter entirely, but why look for logic? Maybe have McMahon bring him to RAW and beg him to do it, but Orton interrupts anyways and gets in his face, telling him he'll be the next Legend killed, goading Austin into the match.

I've been sick all week, but I'm going to try and get at least a promo to put in the show.

I PM'd you about DJ Giant Jesus. Did you get it or should I resend?

In a flash, Zack charges up the ramp and tackles Moneymaker, hammering on him as the crowd goes wild! Zack brings Moneymaker up to his feet and drags him to the ring, hurling him inside so that the cage can be lowered around it. Malibu enters as well, but Moneymaker quickly rolls out the far side, going and leaning onto Sofa Central for support and to regain his breath. COLE What are you doing here? Get in the ring! COACH You can't tell him what to do, Mikey Cole! COLE I can...OH JEEZ! Cole and Coach are both startled by Malibu coming over and ramming Moneymaker headfirst into their commentators table! Moneymaker staggers away, trying to keep Zack at bay and delay the confines of the cage for as long as he can! Malibu chases after him, taking him by the head and spinning him around into a European uppercut that floors the braggadocio billionaire! Moneymaker doesn't stay on the ground for long though, as Zack yanks him right up and sends him into the ring, ready to start their match! Moneymaker gets up and heads for the far end, trying to escape, but Zack comes up behind him and grabs a rear waistlock, which Moneymaker blocks by grabbing the top rope! The filthy rich superstar hangs on, then kicks his leg back, striking Zack with a low blow and then throws HIM out of the ring, as the lowering cage is stopped due to the combatants spilling out to ringside! COACH Smart thinking by Mr. Moneymaker! Zack gets up, but gets nailed from behind by Moneymaker, knocking him into the guardrail! Moneymaker then picks Zack up and drops him with a snake eyes on the guardrail, knocking the wind out of him! As Zack slumps over the railing, Moneymaker takes to using it as a weapon, choking Zack over the top of the railing as fans scream for him to stop! COLE Enough of this! Back off him and get in the ring, Moneymaker! Moneymaker does indeed back off just seconds later, and he shoves referee Charles Robinson violently to the floor as the official tries to lure the combatants into the squared circle! Moneymaker then turns his attentions to the fans, jawjacking with several of them at ringside...then pushes some of them aside, and grabs a steel chair! Folding it up, he cocks it over his head before bringing it down across Zack's back, sending a surge of pain up his spine! Zack falls to his knees, howling in agony, as the fanbase continues their jeering of Theodore Moneymaker. With the weapon still in hand, Moneymaker waves Zack on, asking him to get to his feet. Malibu powers up, but as soon as he does, the steel comes crashing down on his head, thanks to Moneymaker waylaying him with a hard chair shot! Zack flops to the floor, and the crowd grows hushed as Moneymaker stands over him, the damage done. COLE OK, this REALLY needs to stop. We haven't even officially started this match, and already Theodore Moneymaker has leveled Zack with a brutal chair shot! Moneymaker stands over Zack, then starts driving the edge of the chair into his throat, choking him again. Suddenly, the crowd goes wild as BOHEMOTH and LEON RODEZ, members of Zack's In Crowd, hit the ringside area! With them also is Candie, Zack's beloved, and all three tend to Zack. Bohemoth stalks Moneymaker, intimidating him into backing up, and a slew of officials come out to check on Zack Malibu. COACH C'mon, this is Survive Or Surrender Malibu! Get off your ass and fight, or give it up while you're still breathing! Everyone tends to Zack, making sure to keep Moneymaker away. As Zack is helped to his feet, blood trickles from his forehead, down the bridge of his nose, and starts to mask his face. Moneymaker enjoys this visual, smiling at Zack, who suddenly breaks away from everyone's aid and tackles his rival! Zack unleashes a flurry of punches, beating Moneymaker viciously with elbows and strikes mixed in for good measure! He brings Moneymaker up and rolls him into the ring, and when his friends approach, he asks them to back off, as he grabs the same steel chair that has bloodied him and climbs through the ropes! Theodore Moneymaker stands up, his back to Zack...and that leaves him wide open for a hard chair shot across his shoulder blades that drops him down! COLE Zack Malibu, already bloody, already hurting, is ready to start this match proper! Candie hops on the apron, and with the cage coming down, begs Zack to recuperate. Zack goes over and holds his beloved by the arm, telling her "I have to do this", and she's helped off the apron by Bohemoth just as the cage lowers, encasing the squared circle in a prison of mesh, with no escape whatsoever! DING! DING! DING! The bell has sounded, and the brawl that started this match is now confined to the steel walls of a Survive Or Surrender match! Zack drops the chair on the canvas, then pulls Moneymaker up and sends him into the corner, then races in with a corner clothesline before climbing up on the middle rope and going to town with more punches! The crowd counts along, but at the count of five it's stopped abruptly by Moneymaker, who hotshots Zack onto the top turnbuckle! Zack's hunched over the turnbuckles now, and Moneymaker takes the tag rope and uses it to strangle Malibu! COLE There is a vicious streak inside Theodore Moneymaker that is being unleashed tonight, and Zack Malibu is feeling the effects of it! The rules allow Moneymaker to keep choking Zack, but he doesn't do it for long, as he simply starts clobbering Zack across the back. He takes Zack out of the corner, then runs him into it chest first before pulling him back and hitting a back suplex to put him down. Moneymaker sits up and smiles at the crowd, then gets up and kneedrops Zack across the forehead, staining his white kneepad with the blood of his foe. He gets up and this time hits a fistdrop, then starts biting Malibu's wound, causing the Preppy One to kick and scream in pain! He brings Zack up and sends him to the ropes, but rather than rebound Zack clings to the ropes, and ducks when Moneymaker charges, sending him up and over, down to the ringside floor with a belly flop! COACH That's like diving into a pool with no water! Zack rests against the ropes, then decides to exit, heading out to the floor. He pulls Teddy up and runs him headfirst into the cage wall, and Moneymaker bounces off the steel mesh, trying to protect his head from the impact. Zack takes it and sends him into it again, and then starts kicking him down in the corner of the cage, repeatedly stomping and kicking as Moneymaker crumbles to the floor! He brings Moneymaker up and Irish whips him into the far wall, and with Moneymaker pinned against the cage Zack follows up with a splash...THAT MISSES! Zack dives right into the cage wall, and now Moneymaker takes Zack by the head and begins grating it across the metal, adding more wounds to his already bloody face! COACH Right there, Mikey Cole, that's gonna be a brotha's downfall. Moneymaker knows that Zack goes balls to the wall, and even more so now that he's the walking wounded. He's made Zack desperate already, and that desperation is gonna cost him tonight! Malibu clings to the cage wall, using it to pull himself up...but then Moneymaker hits a kneelift to the back, sending Zack pressed into the cage again! Zack then gets tossed back into the ring, and Moneymaker walks around ringside, going so far as to push the camera man out of the way! COLE Moneymaker has taken control, and these fans are not liking it one bit! Back in the ring, Zack tries powering up, coming up on all fours, but Moneymaker rolls into the ring and then drops an elbow across the back of his head, ending that quickly. He yanks Zack up and fires him to the corner...or tries to, but winds up getting sent in himself thanks to a well timed reversal! Malibu charges in, but eats boot when he does! Zack falls to one knee, and Moneymaker hops up on the ropes...but when he comes down with an axe handle, Zack clubs him in the gut, the impact of which flips Moneymaker over! Back on his feet, Malibu's eyes widen, and like a man possessed he hits the ropes, coming off with a leaping lariat to the billionaire! Zack rolls to his feet, and when Moneymaker comes up after him, he floors him with a solid right hand! Moneymaker goes down, but comes right back up, and walks into an inverted atomic drop, then gets sent to the ropes...but now he reverses, and sends Zack in! Teddy drops his head, so Zack greets him by delivering a hard kick, then a series of chops that cause Moneymaker to backstep, before it culminates in Zack wrenching his arm and connecting with a final chop that puts Moneymaker down! Zack then stands over him and hammers away again, with Moneymaker doing his best to cover up. Finally, he manages to send Zack off of him and out of the ring, but Zack winds up on the apron, catching his fall! With Moneymaker unaware, Malibu springboards in...but he's caught, and Moneymaker throws Zack overhead with a fallaway slam, putting Zack down! COACH Once again, Zack takes a risk, and Moneymaker gets the reward! Zack struggles to his feet again, and now Moneymaker measures him up, finding him prone for the BANK VAULT~!...but Zack desperately reaches for the ropes, not allowing himself to become trapped in the hold! Zack clings to the top rope with his left hand, as Moneymaker scrambles to trap it in a chicken wing, repeatedly hammering Zack across the back to get him to break! Moneymaker then spins Zack around and hooks him for a suplex, but Zack slips behind him and hits a release German that throws Moneymaker halfway across the ring! COLE But all it takes is something like that to turn the tide! Malibu sits up and huffs for air, his puffy cheeks reddened by his own blood. Hoping to capitalize, he gets up and rushes Moneymaker, who comes up holding his neck...but a second attempt at a German is thwarted, as Moneymaker back elbows Zack! He tries to send Zack to the ropes, but Zack counters, yanking Moneymaker into an inverted atomic drop! Zack then tries for SCHOOL'S OUT, but it's caught, and Moneymaker swings the foot around so that he can catch Zack in THE BANK VAULT~! COACH He's got him locked! Zack desperately reaches for the ropes again, as he tries to get Moneymaker off of him, but Theodore is the one with the advantage, and he's able to lure Zack towards the center of the ring! Zack desperately tries to free himself, as Moneymaker gets a gleam in his eye, wrenching his signature hold in the hopes of getting Zack Malibu to surrender! COLE Malibu's fighting it, he's fighting it as much as he can! The crowd is electric as Zack flails, looking for a way to get out of this predicament, and luckily manages to slip somewhat free, escaping by dumping Moneymaker over with a fireman's carry! His shoulder and neck aching, Zack comes up to his feet, but not before Moneymaker, who takes him by the waistband and hurls him into the corner, sending Zack shoulder first into the ringpost! Zack screams, and comes up holding his shoulder...and that leaves him in the perfect prone position for Moneymaker to lock on The Bank Vault yet again! COACH Alright, alright...THIS is it! The chants of "ZACK" eminate loudly from the capacity crowd, as again, Zack struggles to free himself. Moneymaker, feeling in his heart that Malibu is nearly done for, tells the referee to ask Zack if he quits, and to hold the mic up to his mouth so that he can announce it. "Zack, what do you say, Zack? "Nnnnnnnnnnhhhh..." "C'mon Zack, what do you say? Do you surrender?" "NnnnnnnnnnNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Angered, Moneymaker breaks the hold on his own, turning Zack around to deliver a hard low kick, and then DDT Zack when he doubles over! He shoves Robinson and takes the mic, then stands over Zack's fallen body, berating him. "Say you surrender Zack!" Malibu lay on the mat motionless, except for his body rattling as Moneymaker delivers a hard stomp. "Get up, Zack! Get up and tell the world that you surrender!" Malibu lay there, and Moneymaker delivers another stomp, then drops the mic and rolls Zack over, getting on his shoulders and hammering away, much like Malibu did to him earlier! Frustrated, he heads out of the ring and looks around, then finds what he wants...the chair from earlier! The same chair that busted Zack Malibu open earlier tonight is now held by the man who did it, and he crawls back into the ring with his hands firmly wrapped around the chair legs. COLE I don't like this one bit... Zack tries pushing up, but falls back to the canvas, completely unaware of what awaits him. Moneymaker stands frozen, waiting for his moment to strike. Slowly, Zack pushes up and looks around, not seeing Moneymaker just off to the side. Moneymaker comes at him, the chair ready to be swung...AND THAT'S WHEN ZACK MALIBU HITS A SCHOOL'S OUT OUT OF NOWHERE, SMASHING THE CHAIR INTO MONEYMAKERS FACE BEFORE COLLAPSING! COLE THAT I liked! COACH Damn! The crowd roars, as we now have a double KO! Moneymaker is laid out, the chair having been driven into his face by the powerful trademark superkick of the former World Champion! COLE They're both down! Zack Malibu, with perhaps his last bit of strength, just knocked Theodore Moneymaker cold with that superkick! COACH You mean that chair! Exhausted, both men soak in their wounds, using the time to regain some of that lost energy and come to their senses. After what must have felt like a lifetime to them both, they do...and then Zack shoots for the legs, pulling them out from under Teddy! Zack tries to hook them, seemingly for a figure four leglock, but Moneymaker will have none of it and kicks the prep away, stopping the submission from being applied! Zack rolls to his feet and approachs again, but as Moneymaker gets up he takes the chair up with him, and rams the edge of it into Zack's ribs! Zack doubles over, and Moneymaker hits the ropes, going for the Billion Dollar Kneelift...but in ONE SWIFT MOTION~! Zack hooks the leg, pulls Moneymaker up onto his shoulders, and falls to the canvas, driving him down headfirst with a death valley driver! COACH YO~! COLE Amazing! Zack Malibu will not be denied his chance at vengeance here tonight! Zack stands up, a bit wobbly after all he's been through tonight, and picks the chair up. With Moneymaker buried face first in the canvas, Zack takes the chair and starts driving it down hard across Moneymaker's back, hitting shot after shot after shot, one for every time Moneymaker has tried to undermine him or oust him from the company he loves! COACH He's going too far! COLE Too far? He's not doing enough, after what Moneymaker has put him through! The only defense Theodore can muster is to roll away, but Zack follows, connecting with shots until the moment Moneymaker rolls himself under the bottom rope and falls to the floor. Zack angrily throws the chair down, his facial expression saying it all, as he is a man on a mission here at Anglepalooza! COLE Moneymaker escaped by the skin of his teeth, but Zack Malibu is on the warpath! Zack hops out of the ring, as a bruised Moneymaker tries to get back to a vertical base. He comes up behind Moneymaker, but Moneymaker kicks his leg back and hits a low blow, sparing him from Zack's wrath! Zack aches from the blow, and Moneymaker takes him and sends him headfirst into the steel stairs, further opening the gaping wound on Zack's forehead! Moneymaker then pulls the stairs away from the ring, positioning them at ringside just the way he wants, then starts to bring Zack up. COLE What's he doing to do here? Moneymaker pulls Zack up, but Zack is dead weight, and falls back to the floor. He pulls him up again, but when he does Zack pushes up and backdrops Moneymaker ONTO THE STEEL STAIRS~! COACH That's GOTTA hurt! Moneymaker howls in pain, sliding off the stairs and holding his back. Panting and breathing heavy, he uses the cage wall to pull himself up, and turns around...JUST IN TIME TO SEE ZACK RACE ACROSS RINGSIDE AND SPRING OFF THE STEPS, NAILING HIM WITH A ZACK ATTACK II AGAINST THE CAGE WALL~! COLE WHATTAMANUEVER! Moneymaker would be down if it wasn't for the cage wall, so Malibu takes him into a facelock and lifts him up in the air...THEN DROPS HIM WITH A VERTICAL SUPLEX ONTO THE STAIRS~! COACH HE JUST BROKE HIS BACK MIKEY COLE~! The scream from Theodore Moneymaker is heard even through the deafening cheers that Zack Malibu is getting, as his back is FUBARed thanks to that suplex! Moneymaker just lay on the floor, screaming in pain, as referee Robinson comes out of the ring. "Theodore? Theodore, what do you say?" "Aaaaaaaah..muh...my back..." "What do you say? Do you surrender?" "Aaaugh..guhhh...GET THAT THING OUT OF MY FACE!" Moneymaker gingerly sits up, then yanks on Robinson to pull himself to his feet! Zack comes from behind, but Moneymaker takes the mic out of Robinson's hand and turns around, whacking Zack across the head with it, sending a loud THUNK sound throughout the arena! Zack stumbles back, while Moneymaker can barely stand...and when Zack comes forward again he hits a low blow, then rolls Zack into the ring! COLE How EITHER of these men are still walking right now is nothing short of a miracle! Moneymaker slides back in, but is crawling, looking to put as little pressure on his back as possible. He uses the ropes to get himself up, and moves towards the corner, and undoes the turnbuckle padding! With the steel exposed, Moneymaker limps over to Zack, who is again trying to get up, and takes him by the head. Running him as fast as he can, Moneymaker slams Zack chest first into the exposed steel, then LOCKS HIM IN THE BANK VAULT AGAIN~! COACH Yeah, they're walking, and Zack walked right into that! The crowd screams, and Malibu screams with them, although it's not encouraging to hear the Preppy One in so much pain! He kicks off the ropes, trying to float over, but Moneymaker drags him off, holding him tightly with the trademark clutch! COLE Fight it Zack! Fight it! COACH You want some pom-poms and a skirt while you're at it? Stop being so biased! That bias has stretched to the fans, however, as they chant for their favorite, the OAOAST Franchise. Zack does his best to wriggle free, but Moneymaker stretches him for all it's worth...until a final effort by Zack drives Moneymaker backwards, into the exposed steel turnbuckle, and Moneymaker BELLOWS a painful yell! COLE He broke it! Zack staggers away, then turns around, charging in fast and furious with a brutal ZACK ATTACK II against the turnbuckles, then hoists Moneymaker up on top! Zack climbs up, driving several headbutts into the temple of Moneymaker, doing further damage to both mens bloody heads! Zack then struggles, but puts Moneymaker up across his shoulders, and powers to his feet while he's on the ropes... ...AND ZACK MALIBU BRINGS HIM CRASHING DOWN WITH THE HONOR ROLL~! COLE DID YOU SEE THE RING SHAKE~!? Speaking of shaking, that's all Moneymaker is doing, as his body convulses, nerves running up his spine as his back is beaten into jelly! Both men lay on the canvas, physically and mentally DONE. Moneymaker rolls around, hurting every time his body bends in the slightest, while Malibu comes up on all fours, looking past the blood falling from his head and at his rival. He comes up and comes over to Moneymaker, then quickly grabs him by the legs, hooking one under each arm...and then he rolls him over into a BOSTON CRAB~! COACH C'mon man, his back! Moneymaker SCREAMS, as Zack uses the traditional hold to put his weight on the base of Moneymaker's spine! Moneymaker screams, but he's not screaming surrender, so Zack wrenches back, pulling back on the legs to bend the body of the billionaire! "YyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!" COLE Quit! Quit you son of a bitch! Charles Robinson looks at Moneymaker, checking to see if he's ready, and almost immediately upon seeing the ref, Moneymaker starts screaming and pounding his hands on the canvas as if to tap out! "I surr...I, augh...I SURRENDER! I SURRENDER, GET HIM OFF OF ME!" Robinson jumps up and waves for the bell to be rung. Upon hearing it, Zack just flops face first to the canvas, no longer needing to exert himself against the leader of The Enterprise. BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, your winner...ZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK MAAAAAAALIBBBBBBUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! "Getting Away With Murder" hits, and its music to the ears of Zack Malibu. Looking nothing like what a winner should look like, the bloody prep is helped to his feet by Charles Robinson, who then raises the arm of the wiped out warrior in the air, signifying a much deserved victory. COLE Zack Malibu was put through hell by Theodore Moneymaker for the last six months, and now here tonight, Zack brought some of that hell back to him! COACH Yeah, and Zack's looking like hell for it! COLE I'm sure in Zack's opinion, Coach, that it was worth it! The cage rises, and Zack exits the ring, with Robinson leaving the ring to aid him. Zack stumbles up the ramp, and Candie comes out to meet him halfway, greeting her beau and embracing him, drawing yet another pop from the crowd! COACH Ugh. COLE What a moment! Zack Malibu and Candie, together tonight, put an end to the Enterprise threats! The Malibu family certainly has something to celebrate here tonight at Anglepalooza! Candie raises her man's hand one more time, getting one last, loud pop from the OAOAST's diehards as they continue to enjoy the annual January outing. After having his hand raised, Zack is helped to the back by Candie, while Theodore Moneymaker is only barely able to stand, being helped out of the ring by trainers. The booing for Moneymaker continues, even after what was a tremendous effort, and we cut away.
