Zack Malibu

Dammit, I want to earn more money so I can buy a house sometime this century. Now that I'm 25, I'm on the 5 year plan, dammit. Wife, kids, house before the big 3-0. Hook a brother up! Make me live tax free!

Spread the wealth, or else I'm going to call and harrass you during the day. Every day. Forever. And ever. Or not. But seriously, kudos to you. And fear not, you know the door is open whenever you've got the time to write something up.

I'm all for it, Alf. I've had Getting Away With Murder since my heel turn in '04, as it fit the persona of Zack thinking he was untouchable. I kept it since it's a very "aggressive" song and fits the whole "aggressive face" mode Zack's been in since turning back to the side of good, but I've also been contemplating changing it to something fresh.

James Blonde and Faqu vs. Black T in an Anderson Cup tournament match. Zack Malibu speaks on Axel's revelation, PK's turn, the NNMX feud, the war in Iraq, how to make more money now, and what to do on a first date. PLUS MORE!

According to the latest WON, Jarrett curbed the rumors of the X-Tag Titles, stating that when you keep adding title belts, you just dilute the value of all the belts you have, which is true. Look no further than WWE for proof of that.

This is done as well, don't forget it!

Done and done. And done, even!

If ever a movie is made on my life, I want this title used.

I don't care either way personally, I just figure it's open for discussion. If you want more "surprise", then we can lessen the mod amount. Or just post less in this folder.

So one of the ideas that's been discussed lately was to lessen the amount of mods who have access to this folder. I'm cool with that if everyone else is, as maybe some element of surprise could be one of the things to get things turning around for the better (well, not that things are bad, but you know what I mean). Anyways, my choices/suggestions for the few mods for GCF would be...::drumroll:: Zack Malibu Tony149 Nice Guy Adam (as long as he continues to help with PPV's and HeldDOWN) ...and PK would be the forth, but there's no need to "make" him an OAOAST mod since he can see it anyways. Same for CC when she has things to submit. This would remove Popick, KC, Eski, Patty, and Chuck from the "mod roster". Let me know what you think, and if it works.

Moore was doing this schtick in WWE before getting the boot. In fact his action figure is in full Prince of Punk regalia. So it's not a new TNA thing, although now he has the chance to utilize the fact he has a character.

According to WON, Homicide hurt his shoulder on a dive where Steve Corino failed to catch him, and then it was worsened when Corino worked on the shoulder during a match/brawl they had. He needs surgery, but doesn't have insurance, and can't afford to take the time off to let it heal. If he opted to get surgery he'd a)lose his paychecks, which he'd need to pay for the operation, and b)lose his spot in TNA, since his job is to be the workhorse of the group.

COLE Welcome fans to the first HeldDOWN~! of two-thousand-six! We are live from the Nashville Arena in Nashville, TN, ready for a great night of action and...well look who decided to show up! CABOOSE Jerry Lawler? COLE Nah, we're not in Memphis. Cole is, of course, talking about The Upstarts. Scotty Static leads the pack of youngbloods that includes his GPX partner Johnny Jax, HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion Christian Wright, streetwise newcomer Jamie O'Hara, and of course the metrosexual monster himself, Bohemoth. They enter the arena with their heads held high, feeling a sense of victory after the OAOAST Home Office Invasion that they commited and recorded just about a week ago. In fact, they're still flaunting it because they're all wearing OAOAST title belts that were stolen in that raid! O'HARA Yo, tell me again why I got stuck wit dis...Adrenalin belt. What the hell is an Adrenalin Championship? STATIC Beats me. You know how the OAOAST just strives to be trendy. O'HARA I gue...OH SHIT! *SMASH* The sound of glass bursting on skin fills the air, as ZACK MALIBU is on the scene, and breaks a light tube across the back of Christian Wright! The Upstarts stop dead in their tracks and pounce on Malibu in defense of their foe, but Zack comes out swinging, trying to nail anyone within reach! COLE Zack Malibu has just jumped The Upstarts in the backstage area! COACH Oh yeah, this was a bright move! The Upstarts pummel Zack, beating him down to the ground with clubbing fists and hard kicks and stomps. Zack tries fighting up, but for every inch The Upstarts give back a mile...until TONY BRANNIGAN AND LEON RODEZ appear on the scene to make the odds better! COLE What the!? Tony Brannigan, as well as Zack's partner Leon Rodez have entered the fray! Tony takes his old rival Johnny Jax and starts clocking him with right hands, then takes him by the head and hurls him across the catering table, sending food flying everywhere! Meanwhile Leon Rodez tackles his nemesis Christian Wright and hammers him...until Bohemoth pulls Leon off him and then sends him face first into a wall! COLE The Upstarts are taking o...wait...Caboose, what are you doing? CABOOSE What should have been done a LONG time ago. The former World Heavyweight Champion reaches under the Sofa Central announce table and pulls out a black bat, a Caboose trademark! He then hops out of his seat and over the table, racing backstage to aid Zack Malibu and the other Originals! COLE It's a melee to start the show, and now Caboose has just put his name in the hat, going to save the day with baseball bat in hand! The cameras are still filming backstage as the brawl ensues, and when Scotty Static moves towards Malibu, he's cracked across the back with the bat of Caboose, and goes down hard! Caboose turns around to see Jamie O'Hara charging with the Adrenalin title held firmly in his grasp, looking for a beltshot...but Caboose swings for the fences and cracks Jamie so hard in the ribs he somersaults over the bat and lands flat on his back! COACH He has no business back there! He belongs out here with us! COLE Back there beating the crap out of your buddies, or out here tormenting the crap out of you? What's the lesser of two evils? COACH Uhhh... Suddenly, an attempt to restore order is made, as a security force arrives on the scene and splits the two factions apart, prying The Originals away from the Upstarts while other security team members make a wall. Everyone is flustered and aching, but time stands still only momentarily, as the security-inflicted truce breaks down into a second melee, with both sides trying to fight through security! COLE The tension has been thick for months, but it hit a fever pitch when these Upstarts burglarized the Corporate Office, ransacked it, and worst of all, literally pissed on the OAOAST! As both sides struggle with security, the forces of resistance crumble, and both factions are going at it again! This time road agents, other wrestlers...anyone and everyone backstage, actually...all hit the scene and try to regain order. In the midst of all this, the fight spills through the curtain and out onto the entrance ramp, drawing a large pop from the crowd, when Bohemoth takes Zack Malibu by the throat and hurls him through the curtain, out onto the aisleway! COLE They're making their way out here now! Malibu tries to get up, but the big man tears off his suit jacket and charges, delivering a hard soccer kick to the ribs that sends Zack rolling further down the aisleway! A security team member rushes down the aisle and blocks Bo's path from getting at Malibu, but he's easily disposed of, as the big man takes him by the throat and shoves him hard into the guardrail! COACH Ooooh they done pissed Bo off tonight! COLE Oh what, did his suit get ruined? COACH Probably! Bohemoth stalks Malibu in the aisle way, then pulls him up by the collar of his leather jacket and throws him under the bottom rope, into the ring. The big man follows and hits the ropes, rebounding just as Malibu is getting up, and LEVELS him with a lariat that spins Zack inside out! "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" COACH Damn right "ooooh!". Your boy is about to get served, Mikey Cole! Seperated from their respective factions, Malibu and Bo are in full view of the audience and away from the backstage brawl. Seeing that he's got the advantage on the man who instigated the brawl, Bo reaches down and pulls Zack up, but Malibu bursts up with great energy, and starts delivering right hands like they're going out of style! COLE Zack Malibu is fighting back! He's fighting off the Bohemoth! (Bo puts a stop to it all by kneeing Zack in the ribs, and then setting him up in a standing headscissors.) COLE Zack Malibu is in grave danger! Bo lifts for a powerbomb attempt, but Malibu slips out and lands on his feet, stepping back before launching his right leg upwards...AND GETS TACKLED TO THE CANVAS BY SECURITY BEFORE HE CAN CONNECT WITH SCHOOL'S OUT! COACH About damn time! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The crowd lets the security force HAVE IT, and Malibu is angered by the interference. Several guards stand between Bo and Zack, while two others pull Zack up by his arms and hold him, making sure he doesn't take off after the big man. Suddenly, a mixed reaction comes over the crowd, as AXEL, the new General Manager, takes the stage with mic in hand! COLE It's Axel! Our new General Manager does NOT look happy! Michael Cole states the obvious, as the scowl on Axel's face only disappears when he has to move his lips to speak. AXEL No no NO! This is NOT the way we are going to begin things, certainly not on my watch! This is a new year and I am the man in charge, and I will not have chaos ruin my first night in control! Zack Malibu, you want to be a hothead tonight, jumping people in the back? You want action that bad? You want at these Upstarts that badly? Then I'll tell you what...I'm going to send Nick Patrick down to the ring, and you and Bo can do all the damage you want to each other, because you two are now competing in a FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH! COLE YO! COACH ...HEY! The crowd roars, and Malibu is caught on camera mouthing "that's fine" to Axel...but while he's still being held by security, Bo breaks through the guards blocking his path, and clobbers Zack with a forearm that sends him through the ropes! Nick Patrick rushes down the aisleway and waves his arm for the bell to sound, and no sooner does Michael Buffer hit it than Bo sends Zack Malibu crashing into the railing! COLE Fans, if you've just tuned in, right at the start of the hour The Upstarts were seen entering the building, only to be met by an irate Zack Malibu, who started brawling with them all...chaos ensued between The Upstarts and The Originals, and just moments ago, new General Manager Axel came out onstage and made a match between Zack Malibu and Bohemoth, which you are seeing right now! COACH Not just ANY match...but a Falls Count Anywhere match! These guys could go up the road to Graceland and brawl! COLE I wonder if our camera team would get any bonus pay for having to run that far after them. Bo rips off his tie and throws it down on the ringside floor, then unbuttons his top shirt button and loosens his collar before approaching Malibu. Zack, who is also not exactly dressed for a match since he's clad in jeans, a button down shirt and a leather jacket, gets yanked to his feet and hurled across ringside again, but this time he leaps up and lands with his feet on the guardrail, then leaps backwards, twisting his body so that he floors Bo with a diving clothesline! Malibu then pops up and gets that wild-eyed look that he's been synonymous with for years, and calls to the fans for one to give him a chair. Many offer, but all he needs is one, and as the big man is rising to his feet... *WHACK!* ...the steel is sent across his back with a hard shot from Malibu! Bo reels, so Malibu fires off another shot, but the big man only drops to one knee! COLE Bohemoth is just taking it, absorbing those chairshots as if they were nothing! Bo fights up to his feet, so Malibu cocks the chair back over his head, and comes out swinging when Bo turns around...but he's met with a kick to the stomach! Bohemoth then swipes the chair from the popular prep and tosses it aside, then takes Zack by the throat and rams him backfirst into the apron before pushing him up onto the edge of the ring and shoving him in under the bottom rope! COLE It's Falls Count Anywhere, yet Bo seems content on pushing Zack back into the ring. COACH Oh don't you worry, Mikey C. It's alllll part of the plan. Zack staggers to his feet, while Bo steps up on the ring apron...however before he enters, Zack leaps up and delivers an enzugiri to the side of the big man's head, knocking him for a loop and sending him off the apron! COLE Malibu managed to get Bo off his trail, but the big man landed on his feet, and...OH MY GOD!!! "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Cole's scream into the headset, as well as the loud roar from the fans, are all due to Zack Malibu's tope, which connected with Bohemoth and send both men splattering to the floor! Malibu pushes himself up before Bo can shake off the effects, and immediately mounts the shoulders of his foe and starts peppering him with fists to the forehead, dazing him! He drags Bo to his feet and tugs on his arm, looking to whip him towards the ring, but Bo puts on the brakes...so Zack drops an elbow on his outstretched arm, cracks him across the chest with a chop, and then snaps him back onto the arena floor with a quick Russian Legsweep! Malibu gets up and pauses for a moment, soaking in the crowd response, then starts unfastening his belt! COLE Oh no, don't tell me he's going to do what I THINK he's going to do! COACH That'd just be plain NASTY! Luckily for Bohemoth, Malibu's not into the literal meaning of "eye for an eye", as he didn't plan on doing to Bo what The Upstarts did to the OAOAST banner. Instead, Malibu folds his belt and clutches it in his hands, then starts whipping the hell out of the Upstarts muscle! The powerhouse tries to cover up, but Malibu strikes every open inch, swinging away like a wildman. He pulls Bo up and tears his dress shirt off over his head like they were in a hockey fight, and then starts whipping again, this time on the exposed flesh of Bohemoth! COLE Look at the welts forming on his back! Can you imagine how hard Zack must be hitting him!? COACH I'd rather not. COLE You know Coach, we've seen incidents like this before. When The Underground struck, Zack Malibu rallied the troops and fought them off. When we were in danger of being bought out by the Hollywood crew, Zack helped lead the charge to save the company from being just another brand of entertainment. Now, for the past six months, he's had to deal with these glory hogs, these egomaniacs who just want the spotlight on themselves, tell him that he needs to step aside. COACH We aren't just telling them, we're doing something about it! COLE And it looks like Zack's doing something about it right now! As Bo staggers away from Zack, putting his arms up to try and deflect the BELTSHOTS~!, he makes the mistake of turning his back to Zack, who jumps up on his back! With the belt in hand, Malibu wraps it around the throat of Bo and pulls back, as he's now looking to choke the big man out! COACH He's strangling him! Bo fumbles around, carrying the weight of Zack on his back while simultaneously being robbed of his air supply thanks to the black leather belt wrapped tightly around his neck! Zack leans back, trying to bring the big man to the floor in the choke, but Bo shifts his weight, looking like a human Weeble Wobble who just won't fall down. He FINALLY reaches back and manages to grab Zack by the head, and snapmares the former World Champion over hi shoulder and onto his back, before ultimately collapsing onto all fours himself. COLE Both men are currently strewn about in the aisleway, but this fight is far from over... Malibu gets up and approaches his fallen foe, but Bo bursts forward like a charging bull, wrapping his arms around Zack's waist and driving him all the way back into the ring apron, smashing him against the ring's hard edge! Zack reels from the blow, and then gets struck with a pair of body punches from the brute before getting pushed under the bottom rope and into the ring once again. COLE Axel said this was Falls Count Anywhere, but it seems as though the big man wants to isolate Malibu and keep him in the ring. COACH Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do, as long as you win. Bo doesn't follow his opponent in just yet, choosing to remain at ringside for several moments and regain both his breath and his composure. Before entering the ring, he notices Malibu's belt left in the aisleway, and snatches it for his own use. The big man hops up on the apron and steps through the ropes, wrapping the belt around his fist with the buckle end exposed. He takes Malibu by the shoulder and spins him around, and goes for the fatal blow, but Zack ducks it and hits the ropes, coming off with a clothesline that only staggers Bohemoth! Zack hits the ropes again, and a second clothesline yeilds the same result! Bo staggers a bit but won't fall, so Malibu hits the ropse again, only this time Bo sees it coming and throws up a boot...THAT GETS CAUGHT! Malibu delivers a HARD field goal kick to the nether regions that doubles the big man over in agony, then hits the ropes once again and drills into him with a devestating spear! COLE Zack got him down, and now he'll look for the victory! ONE! TW-NO! Patrick gets to his feet and holds up two fingers, which draws a loud reaction of boos from the fans here in Nashville. Malibu continues to battle his opponent and keep him at bay by ramming the back of his head into the canvas several times before pulling him up to his feet. He takes Bo and sends him to the corner, then follows up with a diving corner splash that sandwiches Bo between Malibu and the turnbuckles! Zack pulls a dazed Bo out of the corner, but at the last second the monster fights back, clocking Zack with the belt wrapped fist and then wrapping it around his neck as he's stunned! COLE God no! Bohemoth is now strangling Zack Malibu! COACH Oh and NOW you don't like it! Zack kicks his legs in the hopes of freeing himself, but Bo pulls back on the belt, angry at Malibu's attempts to choke him earlier. Zack's struggle lessens the more Bo puts pressure on, but it's Bo who lets go by his own will moments later, turning the weakened Zack to face him and then lifting him up into the air, overhead... ...AND TOSSING HIM DOWN TO THE FLOOR WITH A PRESS SLAM! COLE Crash landing to the floor! Zack Malibu has awakened a sleeping giant in The Bohemoth tonight! COACH See, Mikey Cole...Bo's a nice guy. Real mellow...but then Zack had to go and jump The Upstarts in the back, then try to choke him to death! You think he's going to play nice after incidents like that? COLE The man PISSED on the flag bearing this company's logo, what did you THINK the repurcussions would be? COACH Right now, there don't appear to be any! As Zack struggles to regain equilibrium after being dropped unceremoniously down to the concrete, Bo steps out of the ring and moves over to the ring stairs, pulling them from their normal position and then taking them into the aisleway, dropping them several feet from ringside. He then turns his attention back to Zack, who has barely moved since being tossed out of the ring, and retrieves him from ringside, pulling him up to his feet and then off of his feet...then crotches him on the guardrail! "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" Zack winces and tilts over, then is yanked off by Bo, and slumps back to the floor. Bo then grabs the guardrail and uses it to hold onto as he takes his right foot and stomps on Zack's sternum, then blocks Zack's air passage with the heel of his shoe! Malibu is once again dragged to his feet by his larger rival and then drilled with a knee to the ribs before he's pressed up over Bo's head. The big man showcases his power by keeping Zack up high, but then lets him drop, pancake style...FACE FIRST INTO THE RING STAIRS! COLE What a vicious assault! Malibu clutches at his face in pain, and Bo quickly falls on top for the cover, looking to make sure Nick Patrick is close by to administer the count. ONE! TWO! NOOO! COACH Dammit! C'mon Bo, give him s'more! The crowd yells with glee as Malibu rolls a shoulder, but their motivation for Zack only further angers the typically calm big man. He pulls Zack up and simply shoves him backwards into the guardrail, smirking as Zack crashes hard. He then charges in, but Malibu turns to the side at the last second and throws up an elbow, and it catches the big guy square in the jaw! Bo stumbles back, tending to his mouth, and the momentary distraction allows Zack to come and scoop him off his feet and plant him with an inverted atomic drop! COLE Malibu has been manhandled by Bohemoth, but as long as there is air in his body, there will be fight left in him! Zack takes Bo by the head, then hops up and sits on the guardrail before kicking off and swinging himself through the air, taking Bo's head and spiking it on the st...NO! Bo counters by simply throwing Zack off of him, but Malibu instantly fires back on offense, racing towards Bo and jogging up the ring steps before leaping into the air with a spinning wheel kick that knocks the big man down like a lumberjack would take out a tree! COACH YO! COLE ...did you just "yo" something MALIBU did? COACH Force of habit. Stop pointing out my faults! COLE That'd be a REALLY long HeldDOWN, let me tell you. Patrick falls to the floor and counts, as Malibu covers Bo just as soon as he connects with the kick! ONE! TWO! NO! WAIT...The count is broken up by Jamie O'Hara! COLE What's he doing out here? COACH Well Einstein, he's a member of The Upstarts, and... COLE I KNOW why he's out here. COACH Then why did you just ask? The crowd boos loudly as O'Hara kicks at Malibu, then pulls him up and runs him toward the ring, smashing his face on the apron! Zack gets tossed back into the ring again, this time by the rookie star, who then hops up on the apron and springboards in, crashing down onto Zack Malibu with a Springboard Sky Twister Press! COACH Can't no one fly like my man! He makes Lear jets jealous! O'Hara "throws down" and trash talks Zack, who is rolling on the canvas after having the rookie crush his ribcage with that splash. Jamie brings him to his feet and then immediately delivers a dropkick that sends Zack through the ropes, but at the last second Zack grabs the middle rope to keep himself from falling to the floor! COLE It's a damn two on one assault! And how did that punk get past security? COACH We got skills, playa! Seeing Zack on the apron, O'Hara races up the ropes and balances himself there, ready to launch at any moment...however Zack shakes the ropes as much as he can to crotch the young thug! Zack then steps through the ropes but then climbs up the turnbuckles himself, slapping O'Hara across the face hard before pulling him up across his shoulders....AND THEN FLATTENING HIM WITH THE HONOR ROLL~! COLE YEAH ZACK! "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" The crowd is electric as Malibu battles back from the two on one odds, having just disposed of O'Hara. Zack gets up and takes off his leather jacket, throwing it aside, as he looks at Bo moving towards the ring...SO HE RACES ACROSS THE CANVAS AND SOARS THROUGH THE AIR, CRASHING DOWN ON THE BIG MAN WITH A SOMERSAULT PLANCHA! The momentum knocks Bo for a loop, but also puts Zack on his feet, and he runs and stands up on the guardrail, pounding his chest and pointing to the fans while those near him clamor for a quick touch! "MAL-AH-BOO" "MAL-AH-BOO" "MAL-AH-BOO" COLE Listen to this crowd! The Nashville Arena is full of life, as Zack Malibu battles for company pride here in what wasn't even scheduled to be our opening match! Malibu goes back over to Bo and yanks him off the ground, but as he's being brought up Bo runs Zack backwards into the ringpost, and the current World Tag Team Champion smacks the back of his head on the steel beam! Zack staggers forward holding his head, right into the waiting arms of Bohemoth, who scoops him up, then swings the body of Malibu outward, as he looks to connect with The Erotic Awakening of B ON THE FLOOR... ...BUT ZACK COUNTERS WITH A DDT IN MID-ATTEMPT AT THE LAST SECOND~! COACH (slamming the desk) DAMMIT! I swear, we could nuke this arena and the only thing left would be cockroaches and Malibu! Zack, still groggy from going headfirst into the post, slowly gets up, but when he does the first thing he does is grabs the steel chair at ringside! Zack takes the chair and then goes over to Bo, whose eyes are barely open, and lets him stand on his own...so that he can blast him with the steel chair! Bo falls to one knee as the blood starts to trickle from his forehead, and his worn state leaves him defenseless to a second chair shot that levels him! Zack throws the chair over the ropes and into the ring, feeling as though he doesn't need it anymore. He then drags the big man to his feet, holding him by the head with one hand and then paintbrushes him with the other, but Bo is too dazed to respond. "You want to f*ck with this company, you son of a bitch? Huh?" Malibu's question goes unanswered, as Bo probably doesn't even know his name at this point. Malibu lets go of him, but before the big man topples over, Malibu strikes one last time with a parting gift... ...SCHOOL'S OUT ON THE BLOODY BOHEMOTH~! COLE Sorry Coach, but you guys aren't exactly starting the year off with a bang! Down at ringside, Malibu covers, and Patrick hits the floor to make the count. ONE! TWO! THREE! DING! DING! DING! Patrick calls for the bell, and Getting Away With Murder hits just as Malibu rises off of Bo. Patrick comes over and raises the hand of the OAOAST's most beloved star, while Zack looks down at his now defeated opponent. Although he's just won a hard fought brawl, Malibu still has a look of disgust on his face, as if he's not completely satisfied with what he's done. COLE For a guy who got thrown into a match on a whim, and had to deal with two Upstart members instead of just one, he doesn't look like he's in a celebrating mood. COACH And he shouldn't be. One battle doesn't win a war, Cole. COLE Well, that's very profound of you to say. COACH Damn skippy, playa! COLE ...OK, but that wasn't. Malibu walks up the aisle to the dressing room, looking around as the fans rant and rave over his victory. Still, though he's won the match, the look on his face proves one thing. That this Civil War has gotten to him, and the concern over what The Upstarts will try next is running deep.

Do not speak ill of Los Diablos!

Second Speech: The Usual Suspects Recieve the TV MOTY Award for the TLC match. The crowd roars, and many, if not all (save for The Upstarts, who remain bitter) stand up and applaud the duo of Zack Malibu and Leon Rodez as they walk onstage, where they're presented with the award for winning what was voted the OAOAST's Television Match Of The Year. RODEZ Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeah baby! Leon takes the Angle Award and holds it up while pounding his chest, while Zack takes his Angle Award and holds it up high. The tag champs absorb the adulation from their peers (well, most of them), and Leon then hugs his partner, which draws a chuckle from Zack, who has had to get used to Leon's overly affectionate ways at times. Once the crowd dies down it's time to take the mic, and Leon kicks that off for The Suspects. RODEZ Thank you guys, thank you so much for voting for the Tables, Ladders and Chairs match. Thank you for recognizing our efforts that night, which paid off in full since we are the WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, YEEEEEEEAH! Leon backs away and pounds his chest again, then kisses the Angle Award and holds it over his head, while Malibu takes over on speech duty. MALIBU Like Leon said, we're very humbled by this, but not only was this a brutal match featuring eight of the best competitors, it was also the first time Leon and I competed as a tag team, and here we are months later still holding the gold, and now being recognized by the company as two men responsible for putting on a classic contest. Still, despite the friction between people involved in that contest, right now I want to say that you people...Tony, Dan Black, The SK8R BOIZ and the GPX, you were a part of history with us, and you should applaud yourselves for that. Everyone, give THEM a hand, because they were a part of the formula that night, they put in one hundred and ten percent, and THEY helped make that match just as memorable as our victory did. Give it up for them, right now! Malibu and Leon start clapping, and rally the crowd to applaud their fellow Originals, the new and improved Sk8r Boiz, and even the hated Global Party Exchange. All except the GPX thank Zack and give their props right back to the tag champs, who come off the stage and shake the hands of their opponents from that fateful night. When they approach the Upstarts table the GPX rises, but no hands are shook, as instead Jax knocks Leon's hand away, and Static spits in Zack's face! The Suspects break into action, but security is on the scene quicker than a papparazzi on a Lindsay Lohan nipple slip, and the sides are seperated before things break down into a ruckus that could damper the rest of the evening.

First up, Best Heel Speech for the GPX! The room fills with boos, except for the small Upstart contingent who are all seated together. Jamie O'Hara gets waaaaaaaay too into it, busting out the old Arsenio Hall "whoop whoop whoop" arm motion until Christian Wright calms him down. Scotty and Johnny take the stage and make the "quiet" motion to the crowd, and then begin their acceptance speech. JAX *AHEM*...coughcough...hnnnnnnnnt... STATIC Well, while my partner graphically chooses to clear his throat, allow me to thank you all for this award. Although, I'm not sure how one, or in this case, two, can qualify for best heel...I mean, isn't that just subject to opinion? It's only fitting that the OAOAST gives us this award, seeing as how in THEIR eyes we're heels, but to our fellow Upstarts and to all those people who have felt held back from achieving the greatness they are destined for, we're role models. Heroes. Saviors. We have begun a revolution that the wrestling world will not soon recover from, and surely not the OAOAST! JAX We would like to thank the OAOAST for actually recognizing us for something...we know it must have been a bitter pill to swallow, but this is just more proof that the Global Party Exchange can and will not be denied their rightful place in the history books. We'd also like to give props to the people like Christian Wright, Jamie O'Hara, Bohemoth, and everyone else who supports the Upstart cause, because as the numbers grow so does the sound of our voices. WE WILL BE HEARD! WE WILL NOT GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT! POWER TO THE PEOPLE! I HAVE A DREAM! Jax loses his breath shouting out to the crowd, whose mood has gone from attentive to confused. Static just shakes his head and blocks Johnny from getting back to the mic, telling him that he'll handle it. STATIC 2005 was just the beginning, people. 2006 is the year of the Upstarts. You can believe that. As the days of '05 run out...so does the Originals luck. Static then grabs the Angle Award and walks offstage, throwing up the deuce for his Upstart partners. Jax looks to make sure his partner is offstage and then returns to the mic, but is ushered away by security. JAX All right, all right, I'm going! Jax gets thrown off stage by security, which infuriates the superstar. He removes his blazer and tries running back onstage, but Static hooks his partner in a waistlock and pulls him back to the Upstarts table before a brawl breaks out.

If some of you who left feedback notice something missing, it's because a certain segment you commented on was not supposed to be shown on HD, but rather the NYE special. It wasn't even in complete form, but it'll be on and in full on the NYE show.

Fuckin' A, this is for the NEW YEARS EVE SHOW! GAH! I removed it from HD...it's not even a finished segment yet!

Three Count vs. Jung Dragons 6-man ladder match from New Blood Rising.

Where have you been all my life!?

I need to know what you want to propose though, since at this rate every major and most secondary characters are going to be tied up one way or another. If it's a "surprise", allow me to just say this. Hoff, OK. NYU, no.

Those jobs are relegated to guys like Al Snow, Lance Storm (at one point), Val Venis, etc. Albright is a contracted developmental talent.

Hypothetically though, it's all well and good that everyone is sharing their opinions on the War angle, but this deep into it, how would you logically end something like that? Just act like it never happened?

Oh I don't need the belt at all, but me winning it was also an act of symbolism that the "face" of the company put the final nail in the coffin of the ultra-heels. It's almost at the point where in order to pacify EVERYONE and get the f'n drama out of some people's systems, that we're approaching WCW Restart levels.

So I've read the thread and while I've chosen not to reply as to not fuel the fires of NYU or FFMS (who would no doubt flamebait me upon uttering a syllable), I'll throw my two cents in here first and see if it sticks. Firstly, the Civil War. Contrarty to popular belief, it DID have an end result, which would have been Stone (the leader) getting the better of Malibu for nearly a year before an Originals triumph in War Games, and a potential championship win for me. With the lack of effort and then departure of NYU the plan was to jump to Hoff as the kingpin, and then we all know what happened there. Now I think we've made the most out of everything, but I see why many people feel things get too jumbled/confusing, especially with some of us controlling multiple characters. So here's my solution to it. The Upstarts Home Office Invasion segment will air on the New Year's Eve Special. The following HD! (1/5) will see none other than a pissed off ANGLESAULT hit the ring unexpectedly (I'd be controlling him, since he gave me carte blanche over the character when he left) and cut the Patton style speech of how we're all under one roof, and while there will always be tension, he will not take the treason of the Upstarts. After the Home Office Invasion segment, the "investors" have unanimously decided to put the federation on "probation", and if The Upstarts really want to destroy the company, then all they have to do is keep it up...but if the company is destroyed, it means no paychecks, no fulfillment of contracts, no place to work, no food on the table. It basically puts a "Scare" into the Upstarts to grudgingly accept the fact that The Originals will always be there. As it pertains to Axel and PK, they can still be the "rebel faction power trip" type of duo, saying that they don't need an army to overthrow the company. This can also seperate The Originals to an extent and we can go back to a full roster of feuds without worrying about conflicting with the story. Keep in mind it's a rough idea at best, but it's part of the solution if the War angle should be ended. I'm not going to feel bad if we do, because I want what's best for the place (a fact seemingly lost on several people), but it should be ended in a logical manner.
