The Boards are dead, so let's reminisce

[Guest HVilleThugg]

Thanks to TNT for sending me this, as it was lost in the freak Coca Cola accident last winter. This is where it all started...well, where it REALLY started. In my opinion, this match alone...to quote JD..."turned me from a spot maching into a great match writer". Many of you weren't around when this happened, but, it sort of came out of no where...and those in chat that night remember bitching about how there was no way I would win this match.

 

2 weeks prior to this match, ELM had just defeated King of Hearts at the PPV, but at the end, King turned heel (greatest heel ever) and joined the IGNWO. ELM had been battling King all month and despised the fact that King was now part of the IGNWO (which consisted of Wilson, HVT, ELM, Rane, Shinji, and maybe one more person...). ELM was being a whiny bitch, and Thugg was pissed that he was being a bitch about King joining. I think there were 3 confrontations on the shows after the PPV betweek HVT and ELM, 2 of them resulting in actual fights breaking out between the two....mostly during IGNWO meetings. Wilson was powerless to stop the bickering between ELM and HVT, and this was taking a toll on the IGNWO, who was battling the combinied forces of Anarchy (let by Bo and Stubby) and the Carnival. Stubby, leader of the face faction, was co-commish with Rane at the time, and as he saw the escalating tension inside the IGNWO, he took a chance at destroying the group by booking a match...a huge match that no one saw coming...

 

So, I present to you...

 

NO-DQ, DOUBLE TITLE MATCH for the ICTV and IGNWF WORLD TITLES

The Hville Thugg vs. El Luchadore Magnifico

 

-----------------------------------------------

 

IGNWF Storm returns from commercial straight to the announce table where Curry and the pantless one sit in anticipation for tonight's main event. Through out the arena, multi-colored lights flash over the Storm theme music, and the fans are literally on the edge of their seats. With the camera focused on Curry and NTD, the fans directly behind the announce table do everything possible to make it on live television.

 

<Curry> Welcome back to Storm, live from Toledo, Ohio!! What a spectacle of a show we've witnessed so far!!

 

<NTD> That's right Spicy-boy. It's been a hell of a show thus far, but now...it gets even better. Why?? Because we get to see two of the finest superstars in the federation face off for the two top prizes in our business!

 

<Curry> You got that right! Our main event is on the horizon, and it has the ICTV champion, the HVille Thugg, taking on the World champion, El Luchadore Magnifico...with both belts on the line!!! Here's the twist, in case you're just joining us and have been under a rock for the past week. Both the HVille Thugg and El Luchadore Magnifico are card-carrying members of the IGNWO. However, recently these two have had their differences, and it's taken it's toll on the entire group. Let us take you back to last Friday night, after the cameras stopped rolling on Storm.

 

The IGNTron sparks to life, and the the viewers at home are treated to the same compilation promo as those in the arena.

 

First, the screen shows in graphic letters, "Last Week", and then cuts to ELM angrily opening the door to the IGNWO lockerroom. The real life boos begin as the promo goes through the preliminaries of last week's HVT/ELM encounter. After showing the heated exchange between the two champions, it shows Magnifico's enraged shove to HVT, sending the big man back a little. In this compilation, this moment if frozen and turned to a black and white shot. The promo continues in black and white, next showing HVT shoving Magnifico back. The color returns as Chris Wilson enters before the two can tear each other apart.

 

The compilation then cuts to a graphic stating, "IGNite!".

 

<Curry> Chris Wilson became the voice of reason there, but he couldn't extinguish the fiery rage these two have for each other. Then on IGNite, we saw the situation escalate even more.

 

The promo cuts to Rane's office where the IGNWO and the Clan are already in the midst of a joint meeting. It begins with the staredown in front of both camps, then escalates to words, and then the black and white shot returns as ELM and HVT meet in the center or the room, Wilson standing between them. With the fans in the Toledo Sports Arena cheering the chaos, the promo shows the ensuing fight that occurs, and the punch that HVT connects with, despite the people holding them both back.

 

With that, the promo ends, and we are taken back the announce table.

 

<Curry> The IGNWO looked in complete disarray following that night!! This heated battle between Thugg and Magnifico could tear the group apart.

 

<NTD> But first, they get a chance to tear each other apart.

 

<Curry> Good point, but with the war that has developed between the IGNWO and Anarchy, this situation between two IGNWO members could prove to be fatal.

 

<NTD> Nah, I doubt that. They will fight tonight, then it will be settled. Like men.

 

<Curry> Well, we'll have to see about that, but things did look a little better earlier tonight when Chris Wilson met up with Magnifico for the first time after Magnifico missed some sort of assignment for the group. Wilson seemed very understanding, and maybe those two have put their differences behind them.

 

<NTD> Of course they did!

 

<Curry> We're ready here folks. This match could be huge, and could have and impact on the entire IGNWO and the whole federation!

 

The IGNTron cuts to the Clan lockerroom where Kruger, Fallout, and Thoth sit on a couch watching this very show...

 

<Curry> They're all watching this match. There's the Clan.

 

...then KoH in the IGNWO lockerroom watching...

 

<Curry> The Suicide King! They all know the impact this match could have.

 

...and finally Chris Wilson, watching on a monitor not far from the entrance to ringside.

 

<Curry> And Chris Wilson, who hopes that this match will end the anger and stop the bleeding of the IGNWO. The implications could be astronomical!!!

 

 

The superstars in the back are ready...the fans are ready...those watching on TV are ready...

 

The lights in the arena shut off abruptly, leaving the arena in total darkness, save for a orange-red line across the stage where the superstars enter from backstage. A man laughs sadistically over the house speakers, and suddenly, the glowing line on the floor blasts upward into a wall of fire, causing everyone in attendance to jump back.

 

"They don't know..."

"Who we be!"

{X2}

 

As DMX's "Who We Be" blasts through the speakers, the booing becomes louder, and when the large, dark figure steps from behind the fire to the forefront, the boos reach a deafening level.

 

<Funyon> The following no-disqualification contest is scheduled for one fall, and is for the Intercontinental-Television title and the IGNWF World Championship! Introducing first, weighing in at 450 pounds, from Washington, DC. He IS the Intercontinental-Television champion....THE HVIIIIIIIILLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE THHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

 

This brings even more boos than before, nearly drowning out the music. HVT begins his slow descent to the ring, his broken ribs still taped, and his title belt draped over his left shoulder.

 

<Curry> Even with 3 broken ribs, the HVille Thugg is one of the most dominant forces in the IGNWF. It's gonna be interesting to see who Magnifico goes about getting the big man down and out.

 

HVT approaches the ring, and enters via a step over the top rope. Once in the ring, HVT walks calmly, but intently to the far ropes, where he hands the ICTV title to the referee and awaits Magnifico's arrival.

 

The first few notes of the Mexican National Anthem play and the lights go out. A burst of red and orange pyro light up the arena, and El Luchador Magnifico comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd, as the Mexican National Anthem resumes playing. Most of the crowd continues to boo due to Magnifico's allegiance as he quickly walks down to the ring, waving his Mexican flag and the world title belt around his waist.

 

<Funyon> And his opponent, weighing in at 190 pounds, from Mexico City. He is the IGNWF WORLD CHAMPION......EL LUCHADOR MAAAAAGGGNNNNIIIIIIIIIIFFFFFIIIIIIICCCCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

 

With that, about 25% of the crowd cheers while 45% boo and the rest just don't know what to think. Magnifico slides into the ring under the bottom rope, where he stands up and begins to continue to wave his flag. However, his patriotism is short-lived as the HVille Thugg rushes in and delivers a forearm to Mag's back before he can even get his title off.

 

DING DING DING

 

<Curry> Thugg with a cheap shot on the champ!! Magnifico can't make any mistakes tonight. With the Thugg's power and strength, one mistake could prove to be a fatal one. And as Chris Wilson said earlier, Thugg's gonna be trying to kill the champ tonight!

 

The blow forces ELM to drop his precious Mexican Flag by the near ropes and stumble into those same ropes. HVT turns Mag around and delivers a few chilling right hands to Mag's head before shooting him across the ring with an Irish Whip. ELM bounces off and returns with a full head of steam. He slides between HVT's legs as the giant tries the grab the luchadore, quickly jumps to his feet, and delivers a dropkick to Thugg's back that sends the big man stumbling forward a bit.

 

<Curry> Some quick moves from Magnifico, getting that drop kick in on Thugg. But Magnifico's gonna have to do a lot more than that to get him off his feet.

 

<NTD> He's just so damn big. I really don't see how Magnifico's gonna get him down to pin him because at 190 pounds, Mag is giving away like over 250 pounds...not to mention one and half feet.

 

ELM jumps up as HVT regains his balance. HVT charges in to grab ELM, but Mag ducks and slides to the left of HVT, delivering a swift kick to Thugg's side once he's clear of his grasp. The kick pains HVT's injured ribs and he grimaces, but shakes it off. HVT charges in again, and this time is met with a dropkick to his jaw that staggers him a bit as ELM jumps back to his feet. Before HVT can get rebalanced, ELM is on him with punches to the face that keep the giant at bay.

 

<Curry> Magnifico using his superb quickness and speed to get the best of the Thugg right now.

 

After several punches, ELM sees HVT stumbling back onto one foot, and decides that now would be a good opportunity to take the big man off his feet. ELM turns and runs to the far ropes while HVT seems to be reeling by the near ropes. ELM rebounds, runs at HVT, and once he's upon him, ELM leaps into the air. In midair, ELM turns his body so that it is horizontal, and his chest smacks against HVT's chest with a lateral press. However, HVT doesn't go down like intended, but instead catches Magnifico in his arms.

 

<NTD> Uh oh.

 

Standing with his back to the near ropes, HVT holds ELM up near his chest, and then falls backwards, throwing ELM through the middle rope with a powerful Fall-Away Slam!

 

<Curry> Fall-Away Slam form the ICTV champ!! Sending Magnifico through the ropes and to that thinly padded floor!! What power from HVT to stop Mag's momentum here in the early going.

 

<NTD> I tell you, his power and strength are just unprecedented. I can't think of anyone that I've ever seen that's stronger than the HVille Thugg.

 

<Curry> That is definitely true. A normal move from the Thugg would put most men down for the count.

 

ELM's body hits the floor, where he remains for about 30 seconds to regain his composure. That's enough time for HVT move over to the near ropes, and when ELM gets to his feet, HVT pulls at his hair, dragging the luchadore back up to the apron. Once on the apron, ELM makes a quick, hard thrust through the ropes with his shoulder, that connects with HVT's ribs. Given the condition of HVT's ribs, HVT hunched over in an attempt to alleviate some pain. Magnifico uses the top rope to flip over HVT and grab HVT by the waist, attempting to pull him down with a Sunset Flip!

 

ELM pulls and pulls, but to no avail as HVT's large frame doesn't topple as expected from the maneuver. Instead, HVT regains his balance, jumps straight up into the air, and bring his ass straight down towards Magnifico's chest. With 450 pounds of Thugg's huge rear barreling down towards him, ELM quickly rolls to his left, avoiding the contact and allowing Thugg's bottom to crash to the canvas.

 

<Curry> That was near disastrous for Magnifico...Thugg's 450 pounds nearly crushed him into oblivion.

 

<NTD> Boy...that's a whole lotta ass! Man, can you imagine if Thugg's huge frame would've landed on Magnifico's tiny, little 190 pounds body?

 

<Curry> Oh my, they'd have to scrape him off the mat with a spatchula.

 

ELM gets to his feet, as does the HVille Thugg, with the crowd buzzing in anticipation of some true violence that is usually associated with the no-DQ stipulation. With both men standing near the center of the ring, facing each other, Magnifico goes for a quick kick to Thugg's side, but Thugg catches Mag's leg and pins it against his side. Magnifico hops on one for for a moment, and then brings his free leg up and around towards Thugg's head. HVT alertly ducks the kick to the head, releasing ELM's leg, and Mag's momentum carries his leg over Thugg's head and back to the mat. However, Magnifico is facing away from HVT now, and HVT uses this opportunity to step beside ELM, lift him up so that Mag appears to be sitting on Thugg's forearm, and then drop him on his back and neck with a suplex!

 

<Curry> Nice suplex from the Thugg, and you notice how a simple move like that can be devastating with Thugg's strength and power behind it.

 

Magnifico rolls on the canvas holding the back of his head, but HVT doesn't allow him to nurse his injuries for long as he quickly moves in and raises ELM to his feet. HVT pushes ELM to the far left corner and then delivers a thigh to Mag's midsection to keep him reeling. HVT places ELM's arms over the top rope, exposing his chest, and then slaps Mag's chest with his huge palms.

 

SMACK!!

 

Ooooo!!

 

SMACK!!

 

Ooooo!!

 

<Curry> Ahhh, listen to those chops from the Thugg right on Magnifico's chest. I've had the chance to meet the Thugg, and I've seen the size of his hands. They're enormous!

 

<NTD> Look how read Magnifico's chest is. Goddamn that's gotta hurt.

 

ELM cringes with every slap to the chest, and seems a bit weary after HVT slaps his skin several more times. HVT grabs ELM and whips him across the ring to the near right corner, where Magnifico's back crashes into the turnbuckle with a THUD! HVT charges in looking for the huge splash on ELM, but instead he finds Magnifico's boot right in his face, sending him staggering back a few steps. ELM quickly jumps up to the top rope with agility, and then jumps off straight at HVT for what looks like a flying body press. However, HVT sees it comes and grabs Magnifico out of mid-air, slamming him viciously to the mat with a huge Powerslam!

 

<Curry> Huge Powerslam from the HVille Thugg, and he's keeping Magnifico's high-flying aerial attack grounded at the moment...Thugg hooks the leg! We could have a new champ!

 

ONE!

 

 

 

TW......NO! Magnifico turns his left shoulder off the canvas.

 

<Curry> No! Magnifico kicks out, but boy...we were only one second away from seeing the HVille Thugg as world champion.

 

HVT gets to his feet rather quickly, while Magnifico takes his time until HVT decides to help him. HVT helps Magnifico up, and then whips him to the near ropes, where ELM bounces off and heads back to HVT. Once Magnifico is upon him, Thugg places one hand near his legs and the other near his upper chest, and presses the 190 pounds Magnifico above his head.

 

<NTD> Would ya look at that. Thugg just pressing Magnifico like it's nothing.

 

<Curry> Well, Magnifico only goes about 190 pounds, so I don't know how astounding a feat that is.

 

<NTD> Yeah, you might be right, but it's still rather embarrassing for the world champion to be pressed over someone's head like a helpless doll.

 

HVT showboats a bit by performing several reps of military presses with Magnifico's body before walking over to the near left turnbuckle, and dropping ELM forward so that his face slams right into the top turnbuckle!

 

<Curry> Ouch...that's gotta hurt. Thugg dropping Magnifico from about 11 or 12 feet in the air, face-first onto the turnbuckle. That's gotta knock something loose.

 

Magnifico flips back on impact and lands on the canvas on his back. ELM rolls a little bit, holding his face in pain, before HVT lifts him and pushes him back against the near left turnbuckle. HVT whips Magnifico across the ring, where he slams back-first into the far right corner, and HVT runs close behind him so that just after ELM hits, HVT sandwiches the luchadore against he turnbuckle. Before ELM can even react to the blow, HVT whips him back across the ring to the near right corner, and again, sandwiches ELM against the turnbuckle. HVT then snapmares Magnifico out of the corner, drops to his knees, and locks on a one-arm sleeper where HVT's places his huge bicep right on Magnifico's windpipe.

 

<Curry> Thugg with the arm choke. He's completely grounded the usually high-flying El Luchadore Magnifico. And if Magnifico can't get in his aerial assault, he can kiss his world title goodbye!

 

<NTD> I've seen some of the crazy things that Magnifico usually does, and he really has control of his body while he's flying through the air. I've also seen him win a few matches on the ground, so he is capable of doing so. However, given the Thugg's sever weight, height, and strength advantage, Magnifico's title is in serious jeopardy unless he can speed this match up and get in some of his patented aerial attacks.

 

While HVT knees behind a sitting ELM, trying to choke the life out of the luchadore, the fans become restless of some of the sick, twisted, violence that you might expect of a matchup between these two. However, it doesn't look like that's gonna happen because after a few minutes of the choke, it appears that Magnifico may be out cold.

 

<Curry> Look at the champ. It looks like he might be out!

 

The referee grabs ELM's arm, raises it to the sky, and releases it. Mag's arm falls back to the canvas with no resistance at all.

 

ONE!

 

<Curry> Just look at Magnifico's face. It's expressionless, as if he's unconscious.

 

The referee raises Mag's hand once more, and once more, he releases said hand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TWO!

 

Again, ELM's hand falls to the canvas like there was no one attached to it.

 

<NTD> Once more and we'll have a brand new champion.

 

The fans in attendance are really anxious to see if Magnifico can continue, so the referee raises his hand again, and releases.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And Magnifico's hand hits the canvas for a thir.......NO!!! Just before it hits the canvas, Magnifico's arm springs to life, waving wildly in the air above his head. The referee jumps up holding 2 fingers, signifying that the match shall continue, and for some reason, the fans are ecstatic about Magnifico's ability to continue.

 

<Curry> NO!! Back comes El Luchadore Magnifico!! He's such a fiery competitor. He'll never give up, not until every ounce of life has been stripped from his body.

 

Since Magnifico doesn't have to strength to push his way to his feet with HVT draped all over him, instead, he forces Thugg to break his hold with a rake of the Thugg's eyes. HVT surely breaks the hold and tends to his face while on both knees. Magnifico gets to his feet quickly, bounces off the far ropes, and delivers a sit-down dropkick right into HVT's face, sending the big man toppling over backwards.

 

<NTD> Here he comes...here comes the high flying stuff we were talking about!

 

With HVT laying close to the near right turnbuckle, ELM quickly climbs that turnbuckle as HVT gets to his feet. HVT stands upright, facing away from ELM, who is perched up on the top rope. HVT turns around, only to have his neck caught between Magnifico's legs, and then to have his head driven to the mat with a Hurricarana!

 

<Curry> Hurricarana from Magnifico!! Now we're beginning to see the El Luchadore Magnifico that we're used to....soaring through the air like an angel without wings. Well, actually, I mean a devil without wings because Magnifico isn't exactly the picture of all that is good around here.

 

<NTD> Shut up...the important thing is that he is back in the matchup, and the fans love it.

 

With the crowd popping slightly because of the new action in the match, ELM gets to his feet, and with HVT lying in the center of the ring, jumps in the air, does a forward clip, and lands on Thugg with a Senton Splash!

 

The splash lands right on HVT's ribs, which makes him sit up, cringe in pain and hold his ribs. Magnifico get to his feet and grabs HVT by his hair and lifts him to his feet as well. Magnifico attempts to whip the Thugg to the left side ropes, but HVT reveres the whip, and ELM is sent running towards said ropes. Just before he reaches the ropes, Magnifico leaps in to the air and lands on the top ropes. He jumps off towards Thugg, turns his body lateral and drives his feet right into HVT's face, knocking the giant off his feet with the Springboard Dropkick!

 

<Curry> Magnifico with that acrobatic drop kick on Thugg. Now that's the Magnifico we're used to seeing.

 

<NTD> Wait...where is Magnifico going?

 

With HVT down, Magnifico slides out of the ring on the left side, walks around to the near side of the ring, and then slides back into the ring with his Mexican Flag in his hand.

 

<Curry> MAGNIFICO'S GOT THAT FLAG!! We know what damage he can do when he uses that Mexican Flag as a weapon, and anything goes in this no disqualification matchup.

 

HVT is staggering up to his feet, and when he does, Magnifico swings the staff portion of the flag and it connects right into Thugg's ribs, forcing him to double over. ELM then holds the flag high above his head, and then cracks it on the back of HVT's head, splintering and breaking the flag at the impact point.

 

<NTD> Magnifico just cracked that flag in Thugg's head!! Thugg is down! Thugg is down!

 

<Curry> Could this be the end of the HVille Thugg!!

 

HVT falls flat on his face and doesn't move as the fans enjoy the brutality. Magnifico tosses the remains of the flag aside, and rolls HVT onto his back.

 

<Curry> Magnifico with the cover!!

 

ONE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TWO!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

NO!! HVT shoves ELM off with a bit of power, tossing ELM a few feet in the process.

 

<Curry> NO...Magnifico was just one second from being a double champion!

 

HVT starts to get to his feet, but Magnifico makes it to his feet first and delivers several punches to HVT's jaw. HVT gets to his feet anyway, but the punches keep him at bay, staggering back towards the far ropes. ELM pushes HVT against the far ropes, and then attempts to whip HVT again, but HVT reverses the whip, sending ELM towards the near ropes. HVT steps away from the ropes a bit as ELM bounces off the near ropes. When Magnifico returns, HVT tries to grab him, but ELM slides between HVT's legs, and slides completely out of the ring. HVT turns around as ELM jumps back up to the apron. HVT goes to grab ELM again, but ELM grabs the top of HVT's head, and then drops to the floor, bouncing HVT's throat off the top rope.

 

<Curry> Magnifico hangs Thugg on that top rope, possibly stopping his breathing for just a moment.

 

HVT reels and takes several steps back as ELM hops up onto the far left top turnbuckle. When HVT stumbles close, ELM leaps off the top rope, does a single front flip while completing a full twist, and lands on HVT's chest, knocking him to the canvas and landing on top of him with a Corkscrew Moonsault!

 

<Curry> Now Magnifico is controlling the pace of this matchup with his high-flying maneuvers!

 

<NTD> If the HVille Thugg has a chance in this match, he had better slow the pace of this match down, and quickly.

 

<Curry> MAGNIFICO WITH THE COVER!!!

 

ELM remains on HVT with the cover and the referee slides into position.

 

ONE!

 

 

 

 

 

TWO!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Th....NO! HVT kicks out!

 

<NTD> NO!

 

<Curry> Oh...so close for the world champion. That was nearly it.

 

ELM gets to his feet, but HVT struggles a little to get to his. Once HVT is up, Magnifico delivers several punches to Thugg's head, forcing him back towards the far left turnbuckle. Unfortunately for Magnifico, once he has HVT against the turnbuckle, HVT block a punch and then grabs ELM by the throat, tossing Magnifico into the same corner.

 

<NTD> Back comes the HVille Thugg with those huge punches!

 

HVT begins to punch ELM mercilessly in the corner, and then steps up onto the second ropes, and continues his punching onslaught. As HVT punches ELM, the crowd counts with each punch.

 

3!

 

4!

 

5!

 

6!

 

With a quick burst of adrenalin, ELM thrusts his left arm upward between HVT's legs, causing Thugg to stop punching and fall off the second rope. HVT lands on his feet, but immediately goes down to one knee, clutches his midsection. The "Oooooo" from the crowd says everything that needs to be said about the pain that HVT is experiencing.

 

<Curry> Magnifico with a low blow...which is perfectly legal in this contest!

 

<NTD> But is it right?

 

<Curry> There is no right and wrong in this matchup.

 

ELM shakes off the punches and then ascends to the top rope. ELM slightly loses his balance, but before he can regain it back, HVT sees him perched and then throws his body into the far ropes, causing the ring to shake and Magnifico to fall from his perch and straddle the top turnbuckle. Another "Ooooo" is heard from the crowd as they can feel Magnifico's pain as well.

 

<Curry> And look at that! Magnifico suffered the same fate as the Thugg! Either way, both men's ability to reproduce may be in serious jeopardy right now.

 

HVT gets to his feet, and with the most devastating blow all night, runs towards the far left turnbuckle, and once he's there, drives his huge boot right into Magnifico's face, knocking him clear off the turnbuckle and to the floor on the outside.

 

<NTD> ON MY GOD!!! DID YOU SEE THAT?? THUGG JUST CRUSHED MAGNIFICO WITH THAT BIG BOOT!!!

 

<Curry> Did you hear that impact?? Jesus Christ!!! Magnifico might be dead on the outside!!

 

Magnifico lies near dead on the outside as HVT looks on from the ring. HVT steps over the top ropes and then hops down to the floor. He sees Magnifico barely moving, and decides to taunt the luchadore with smacks to the head.

 

<Curry> It's about to get ugly in this arena now!! Look at Thugg...he's just taunting Magnifico!

 

After several slaps to the head, and screams of "Get up *****!", HVT raises Magnifico to his feet and drags him over near the announce table. HVT grabs ELM's head, and slams it hard onto the announce table.

 

<NTD> Get away from here!! Take it to the ring!

 

<Curry> Thugg bouncing Magnifico's head off our announce table here.

 

HVT grabs Magnifico and then whips him back-first into the ring apron. With ELM down near the apron, HVT begins to remove the protective covering from the announce table.

 

<Curry> What are you doing?? Get away from that!!

 

HVT tosses the covering aside, and then removes the TV monitors, tossing them on the floor behind him.

 

<NTD> Hey...we need those!

 

After removing the monitors, HVT turns around in search of Magnifico, but instead, is crushed in the forehead by a ELM wielding a TV monitor!

 

<Curry> HOLY ****!!! MAGNIFICO JUST CREAMED THE HVILLE THUGG WITH THAT MONITOR!!! LOOK, THUGG'S BUSTED WIDE OPEN!!!

 

<NTD> OH MY GOD!!! LOOK AT WHAT MAGNIFICO DID!! HE JUST TOOK OUT THE HVILLE THUGG!!!

 

ELM stumbles and drops the monitor, and then, as weary as his is, grabs HVT and lifts him up, exposing his bloody face to the world. ELM pushes HVT onto the now exposed announce table, where HVT lies bloody and motionless. ELM grabs the monitor, and drives it into HVT's ribs, just to be sure he's down for good.

 

<Curry> I think it's time to move!

 

<NTD> You said it!

 

Curry and NTD scurry out of the way, both leaving their headsets behind. Meanwhile, ELM hops up onto the apron, and then ascends the top left turnbuckle. Magnifico looks down at HVT's vulnerable body lying on the announce table before he points to the sky. Then, through a sea of immense flash photography, ELM leaps off the top turnbuckle and soars through the air, where he does full inward front flip and lands on top of the HVille Thugg, forcing he able to collapse from the impact of the Shooting Star Press!!!

 

Curry is handed an extra headset, but NTD is left without.

 

<Curry> OH MY GOD!!! MEXICAN PRIDE PRESS!! MEXICAN PRIDE PRESS!! MAGNIFICO JUST HIT THE MEXICAN PRIDE PRESS ON THE HVILLE THUGG THROUGH OUR ANNOUNCE TABLE!!!

 

The fans appear to love the the move, as they start up a chant of "Holy ****" while both ELM and HVT lay in the rubble of the announce table. Both men are hurt, but ELM begins to move after a few moments.

 

<Curry> Both men are down, but I think the Thugg is the worse for wear here!

 

<NTD> (With a new headset) HOLY COW!!! Thugg may be destroyed! And Magnifico ain't in the greatest of shapes either.

 

ELM finally staggers to his feet and takes a look at the damage. He takes a glance at the ring, and then grabs HVT by the hair. ELM tries to lift HVT up, but HVT falls back down. Another try proves to work, as ELM rolls HVT into the ring, where he lays motionless again.

 

<Curry> I think Thugg's down for the count!!! This one's gotta be over!!! Mexican Pride Press through the announce table...no man gets up from that!

 

Once HVT is in the ring, ELM rolls in himself, and throws his body on top of HVT. The ref slides in...

 

ONE!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TWO!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THREE!!!

 

WAIT!!

 

After slapping the mat the third time, the referee throws his hands up, telling everyone to wait. He then points to the far bottom rope, where HVT's leg is draped across it.

 

<Curry> THUGG GOT HIS LEG ON THE ROPES!!

 

Magnifico rolls off of HVT and holds his head in disbelief. Magnifico yells at the ref, as he can't believe this match isn't over.

 

<NTD> Can you believe that?!? The HVille Thugg gets his leg on the bottom rope!

 

<Curry> Look at Magnifico, he can't believe it! He thought he had this match won for sure!

 

ELM, visible frustrated, slides to the outside, and steals a chair from the time keeper. HVT is still down as ELM slides back into the ring.

 

<Curry> OH NO! Magnifico's got that steel chair!! What is the hell is the luchadore up to now?

 

ELM holds the chair in one hand, and then lifts HVT to his feet with the other. HVT simply waivers there as ELM backs away from him. ELM then takes the chair, and throws it at HVT, who catches it like a good victim. ELM steps in and delivers a Superkick...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...that hits nothing but air!! HVT side steps the kick, and then drives the chair into ELM's abdomen, doubling him. HVT then quickly grabs in a front face lock as he drops the chair, and drives ELM's head to the canvas with a DDT!

 

<Curry> DDT!! DDT FROM THUGG!! THE HVILLE THUGG JUST COUNTERED MAGNIFICO'S SPANISH CONQUESTER WITH A DDT!!

 

<NTD> The HVille Thugg is showing a lot of heart and determination here tonight!

 

<Curry> Both men are down!

 

After dropping ELM with the DDT, HVT remains on the canvas as well, still reeling from the punishment he's endured. The referee begins to count his mandatory 10 count.

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

<NTD> Hey...can they be counted out in a no disqualification match?

 

<Curry> Apparently so...or he wouldn't even be counting.

 

FOUR!

 

FIVE!

 

SIX!

 

<NTD> I tell ya, the first man to his feet will have the advantage here, which would go a long way to winning this match.

 

SEVEN!

 

ELM begins to stir, as does HVT, both getting to all fours.

 

EIGHT!

 

NINE!

 

Before the ref can say ten, both men stagger to their feet in the center of the ring. ELM is the first to make a move, as he delivers a punch to HVT's head, but that punch is quickly returned by Thugg. Another punch by ELM....another by Thugg. As the two exchange punches, suddenly....

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Anarchy in the U.K" hits the speakers and the IGNTron sparks to life.

 

<Curry> What the hell is this?? That's Anarchy's music!!

 

<NTD> Oh no...this ain't gonna be good.

 

HVT and ELM stop punching each other, and they both look up at the IGNTron which instead of playing the Anarchy entrance, shows live footage of backstage. The first shot is the Clan's lockerroom where Grunge, Munich, and Jamie Bjork are stomping the hell out of the Clan members.

 

<Curry> Oh my god!! Anarchy's attacking the Clan in their very own locker room!

 

Shot switches to the IGNWO lockerroom where the Suicide King is being stomped on the floor by Johnny Rotten and Andrea Montgomery.

 

<Curry> The King of Hearts too!!! Their attacking the Suicide King!!!

 

In the ring, HVT and ELM glance at each other confusedly. What's going on?? What are they to do?? Should they keep fighting?? Should they put their problems behind them and help their friends?

 

The IGNTron cuts to a shot just outside the entranceway to the ring, where Mistress Sarah, Mark Stevens, and Kaimen Roja have just slammed Chris Wilson against a metal door. Wilson goes down in a heap, and the three Carnies stomp away at him mercilessly!

 

<Curry> Anarchy has waged war!! It's a war backstage!!!

 

The IGNTron shows a shot of Rane in his office watching on TV. Rane leaps up from his desk, and attempts to throw the door open, but it doesn't budge. He tries again, but the same result. The shot cuts to outside of Rane's office where a chair is propped up against the door handle, and walking down the hall not far from the office is Stubby P. McWeed!!

 

<Curry> They've locked Rane in his office. What's going on???

 

Suddenly, the cheers coming from the crowd erupt into a sea of massive pops as who appears on the stage, none other than Edwin MacPhisto standing right next to Perfect Bo, and flanked by Chris Raynor!

 

<NTD> It's the leaders!!! It's Edwin MacPhisto and Perfect Bo and Chris Raynor!!

 

<Curry> I see it now!! They've eliminated all the help for Thugg and Magnifico!!

 

HVT and Magnifico glance at each other and then up to the advancing threesome. HVT and ELM nod to each other and then back up to the center of the ring.

 

<NTD> YES!! It looks like Thugg and Magnifico are putting their differences aside!!

 

<Curry> But it doesn't matter. Anarchy and the Midnight Carnival have decided that tonight is the night they will destroy the IGNWO!

 

The three mega-faces approach the ring and once there, slide right on in. MacPhisto, Rotten, and Bo face off in the center of the ring with an exhausted HVT and ELM, standing toe to toe.

 

<Curry> Feel it!!! The tension is so thick!! The IGNWO is in major trouble right now!

 

Suddenly, the punches begin to fly. HVT connects with a punch to Perfect Bo while ELM slams one into MacPhisto's dome. Perfect Bo returns the punch to HVT and quickly, Bo and Rotten are all over the HVille Thugg with punches. They back HVT up to the far ropes, and with a double clothesline, send him over the top rope and down to the floor.

 

<Curry> Bo and Rotten get rid of the Thugg!! It's absolute chaos out here!!! Chaos!!!

 

<NTD> The referee needs to get this under control! We've got title on the line here!

 

Meanwhile, ELM is getting the best of MacPhisto, and has him pinned against the near left ropes. With the crowd cheering their heads off, Bo and Rotten return to help the Macdaddy, both delivering forearms to ELM's back. MacPhisto come out of the corner and the three begin to punch ELM into oblivion against the turnbuckle.

 

<Curry> This is a war!! A war that Anarchy and the Carnival are winning right now. They're trying to deliver a fatal blow to the IGNWO by taking out their two top belt holders tonight!

 

<NTD> GODDAMMIT!! Somebody stop this!!

 

Bo motions for MacPhisto and Rotten to halt the punching. Bo pulls ELM out of the corner, turns him around so they are back to back, and then delivers the most vicious Diamond Cutter ever seen!!

 

<Curry> PERFECT PAIN!!! BO JUST HIT MAGNIFICO WITH THE PERFECT PAIN!!!! THE WORLD CHAMP IS DESTROYED!!!

 

The fans pop like they just saw Elvis reenter the building, and their cheers drown out all of the words Bo is yelling at Magnifico. Bo, Rotten, and MacPhisto continue to stomp the hell out of ELM before MacPhisto gets ELM to his feet. MacPhisto turns away from ELM, so they are back to back. As MacPhisto sets ELM up for the Encore Cross, he sees the last thing he expected to see......

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

......THE BLOOD FACE OF THE HVILLE THUGG!!

 

<Curry> It's the HVille Thugg!! And he's got a steel chair!!

 

When Edwin notices Thugg, he's already smashing the chair over the head of Rotten, knocking him to canvas. Edwin releases ELM and runs at HVT, only to be decimated with a chair shot to the head from Thugg.

 

<NTD> HELLS YEAH!!!! THE HVILLE THUGG TO THE RESCUE!!!!

 

The fans boo as Edwin goes flying through the ropes from the blow. HVT takes a huge swing at Bo, but Bo alertly ducks. With HVT's back to the near ropes, Bo delivers a kick to HVT's ribs, forcing the big man back against the ropes. The fans are back to cheering as Bo runs in, but HVT lifts him with a back body drop, and Bo goes soaring over the top rope. However, Bo lands on the apron, and when HVT turns around, Bo swings a punch as hard as he can. HVT bobs back, avoiding the blow, and then obliterates Perfect Bo with a chair shot to the head, sending him flying off the apron and causing the boos to shake the arena.

 

<Curry> Can you believe it?? Thugg taking it to all three men...making the save for the IGNWO!!

 

<NTD> Score one for the IGNWO!! Anarchy's little plan didn't exactly work out, did it?

 

<Curry> I guess it didn't.

 

HVT tosses the chair backwards, where it lands in the center of the ring. HVT yells out a Bo, and then touches his face, wiping away some of the blood. HVT then moves over to the near left corner where ELM is sitting there, seemingly unable to get up.

 

<Curry> What's this??? Thugg's actually extending a hand to Magnifico!!

 

<NTD> I told you!! They've put their differences aside for the greater good of the IGNWO!

 

<Curry> The fans really hate it!

 

ELM looks around a bit confused, but then takes HVT's hand. HVT bends down and helps Magnifico to his feet, draping the luchadore's arm over his shoulder to support him.

 

<Curry> I never thought I'd see the day that the HVille Thugg would show any sort of decent spirit. He's actually helping Magnifico. Is it possible that the IGNWO is more in tact than we thought?

 

<NTD> You're damn straight! And they're stronger than ever!

 

HVT walks with Magnifico over to the center of the ring, absorbing the loud boos emanating from the crowd.

 

<Curry> Well, I guess I may have been wrong about the Thugg. Maybe his loyalty to the IGNWO is bigger than some petty argument with Magnifico.

 

As HVT and Magnifico stand in the middle of the ring, Magnifico takes his draped arm and pats HVT's back. Mag says something to HVT, but it's inaudible. However, seemingly out of nowhere....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...HVT GRABS ELM WITH A ONE HANDED CHOKEHOLD!!!

 

<Curry> OH MY GOD!!! NO!!!!

 

<NTD> NO!!!!

 

HVT gets a sadistic grin on his face just before hie lifts ELM high into the air with one hand. HVT spins around in a complete circle, and then slams ELM down with a spinning chokeslam.... .ONTO THE STEEL CHAIR!!!

 

<Curry> It was all a damn farce!!! A lie!!! The HVille Thugg is a sick human being!!! He will do anything!!!

 

<NTD> I'm in utter shock!

 

With NTD's jaw on the floor, HVT drops down and make the cover as the ref slides in.

 

ONE!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TWO!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THREEEEEEEE!!!!

 

DING DING DING

 

<Curry> Can you believe the HVille Thugg?? He saved Magnifico from Anarchy's clutches...and then used his guise of friendship to hit the Untamed onto a steel chair!!!

 

<NTD> Wha...I...oh....my.....wha....huh??

 

HVT rolls off of ELM and throws his hands in the air as the arena shakes with boos. NTD can't belive it, neither can Curry and I'm sure that the viewers at home are equally in shock.

 

<Funyon> Your winner....AND NEW IGNWF WORLD CHAMPION.......THE HVIIIIIILLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEE THHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!

 

"Who We Be" hits the speakers as the referee hands HVT the ICTV and the World Title belts.

 

<Curry> I can't believe what we just saw here! If you look at the carnage all around the ring. It was all done by the sadistic HVille Thugg. The Thugg saved Magnifico from Anarchy, only to destroy him with an Untamed onto a steel chair!

 

HVT pushes both titles into Mag's unconscious face, and berates him as his music plays and the fans nearly drown it out with boos.

 

<Curry> What's the status of the IGNWO??? What's Chris Wilson gonna think about all this?? What's Anarchy and the Carnival going to do after their failed attempt to destroy the IGNWO?? So many questions...but we're outta time! Check out IGNite. The ramifications of this are sure to blow the roof off.

 

<NTD> NOOOO!!! This can't be happening!!!

 

A final shot is shown of HVT berating ELM as debris from the fans flies all around him. The IGNWF logo appears at the bottom of the screen, and the show fades out with HVT holds both title in ELM's face.
