Guest DawnBTVS Report post Posted July 28, 2003 So, here's the other tag team match (Y)! Two Drink Minimum vs Urban Decay (The camera gyrates back to life, revealing the energetic and lively crowd! The camera pans through various throngs of fans and it finally stops down at ringside. The new announcer trio of Justice and Rule with the corky Annie Eclectic sit at their desk, chatting casually). “Welcome back loyal Justice and Rule fans!” Judge proclaims, to many jeers. “You mean SJL fans.” Annie says plainly. “No, I’m pretty confident we mean Justice and Rule fans.” Ejiro retorts with a beaming grin. Judge nods at his partner, “Anyway, now we get to watch Two Drink Minimum, the team of Tim Dillon and Danny Conklin, take on Urban Decay!” “Last week Danny and Tim showed their disliking of Urban Decay and boldly pissed off Raynor!” Annie states. Ejiro butts in, “Urban Decay is the newly commissioner backed stable that’s set to tear the SJL and Charlie Matthews to pieces! Thank God! I mean English Dragon and Dominic Korgath are going to DESTROY the Irishmen!” More boos from the fans. “But you’re wrong, because Danny and Tim are Irish!” Annie defends. Justice and Rule glance at each other, trying to follow the lesbian’s logic. “What does that have to do with it?” Judge slowly asks, thinking he’s heard better defense from the insane serial killers. “Well that means they can brawl, hold their own, booze, AND Danny has Janet at ringside.” Annie grins sheepishly. Ejiro rolls his eyes, “Screw whiskey, ED can out wrestle both of them, and Korgath can out brawl both of them but no complaints about Janet.” Before anyone else can comment, bagpipes echo off the walls. The very start of “Danny Boy” kicks up but soon switches right in middle to Dropkick Murphy’s “Barroom Hero.” The fans explode into cheers, standing up and cheering on the two charismatic Irishmen! Annie almost squeals, “It’s the perfect tag team since…” “Us.” Ejiro butts in. “I was going to say American Sweethearts.” She replies sourly, thinking of Sydney Sky of her on the team. Tim Dillon leaps onto stage first, with his shaggy blonde hair, green eyes, shamrock clad cargoes, black skate shoes, and a black and green font “End the Fighting” t-shirt. But only a stride behind him is Danny Conklin with Janet Quinn hanging off the side. During all this green, white, and orange pyro explodes to the extreme left and right, creating quite the scene. Danny has his classic white boots, black tights, brown hair with that little tip of blonde at the end, the blues eyes and the earring dangling from his right ear. Conklin throws up his free arm into the air, the other arm around Janet Quinn. Danny glances at Tim, then down at Janet hugging him, and finally at his white tank top. Life is good. “Introducing next… they are the true Fighting Irish trio- weighing in at 410… TWO DRINK MMMMIINNIIUUUUMMM!” Funyon announces drawing positive heat from the crowd. The three continue their stride, Tim slapping hands, trying to get to each person, while Danny and Janet slowly talk on their walk down. Finally they descend upon ringside where the lovely Janet Quinn struts towards ringside and the two Irishmen slide into the ring. Each one takes a separate corner as when their arms are both flung into the air- shamrock confetti pours from the rafters. The two glance at each other, then climb down and position themselves in middle of the ring. “Let’s see how this new tag team works out.” Judge comments. “It should be good, they do have their common interests.” “Like waking up completely wasted without any clothes, wondering where you are and what those nasty bumps…” William slaps Ejiro on the arm. Annie stares at Janet, “You know… I am a big supporter of this whole anti-Urban Decay movement.” “The Land of Hope and Glory” kicks up, immediately causing the jeers to kick up! The portion of Urban Decay enters onto the ramp, wasting no time. The two men grin contently as garbage is heaved at them and the negative reaction is nearly deafening. The English Dragon, complete with mask, red and white trunks and white boots, stands next to the gigantic 6’6” Dominic Korgath, who wields his iron staff. He wears no shirt, though many wish he did, and solid black trunks. Korgath’s face is also masked like an oni (Japanese demon). “You know they probably wear that mask to save their shins.” Annie concludes. “What?” Is all Judge can say. “Well, I mean, when I was in Havoc I got more kicks in the shins than any soccer player.” “Even more than Mia Hamm?” Annie now just has pleasant thoughts of the famous female soccer player. “Introducing next… weighing in at a total of 573 pounds… UUUURRBBBAAANNN DDDEECCAAYYY!” Funyon has to scream over the harsh boos. The two heels descend down to the ring, where Dominic places his iron staff, and the both slide into the ring. “If I remember correctly, English Dragon beat Tim Dillon before. I have to say the Irishmen are at a disadvantage. Especially with Urban Decay’s obvious talent and Korgath’s massive size.” Judge is subtle biased. Two Drink Minimum both stare, edging towards their corners. English Dragon gives Dominic Korgath a slap on the chest, and then exits to the ring apron. Tim and Danny both look at each other, wondering who gets fed to the beast first. But instead the two charge at Dominic, slamming their bodies with all their might into the 350 lb opponent! DING! DING! DING! Danny bails to ringside and heads to his corner, leaving Tim to take on the massive task of taking down Korgath. “That’s cheating!” Ejiro objects, but the crowd loves it. Dominic stumbles back into the ropes and Dillon right away resorts to a dropkick, which just causes Korgath to reel back. Tim quickly scrambles up, trying to get up close to throw his expert punches. He throws one out, but Dominic catches in and tugs Dillon into his grasp. Korgath quickly grapples and easily overpowers the Irishman. He wraps his monstrous arms around Tim Dillon, then turns and tosses him over with incredible ease! “A beautiful belly-to-belly suplex.” Judge comments. Dillon slams against the canvas nearly all the way towards his side of the ring, where he scrambles and tags in Danny Conklin! Dominic quickly follows after. “Now these two should capitalize on their five seconds of double teaming, not to mention tagging in and out.” Judge says insightfully. Danny Conklin hops onto the ropes while Dillon slides onto the ring apron. Conklin lunges out, hitting a springboard dropkick that sends Dominic Korgath reeling! Tim Dillon then hops on himself, vaulting onto the turnbuckle and hitting a Cross body, which sends Korgath down, and Tim rolls away from and out of the ring! The fans cheer loudly as Tim goes back to his side after listening to Janet’s praise. Danny Conklin tries to figure out what to do, so he hops over Korgath and bounces into the ropes. He makes a rookie error as he bounces into the ropes where English Dragon is able to grab at him! But Danny wraps his arms from behind around the top of English Dragon’s head and he drops to his BUTT, hitting a stunner on ED! Dragon’s neck collides with the ropes and he quickly falls back first into the cement. “TWO DRINK! MIN-I-MUM!” The crowd chants their name. Korgath is standing, waiting, as he sends a stiff punch that sends Danny Conklin stumbling. Not to be out-done, the Irishman sends a few punches to Dominic’s gut and chest, then a beautiful one to his chin! He hits a generic dropkick that sends Korgath staggering into the ropes. Danny takes a few steps back then leaps into the air, hitting a flying heel kick that sends Korgath into his teammate’s turnbuckle! Dominic wearily makes the tag to English Dragon! English Dragon immediately hops in and charges at Danny Conklin! But the Irishman side steps out of the way and hits a dropkick into ED’s back! English Dragon is flung right into Two Drink Minimum’s turnbuckle, where Dillon sends a hard right punch that causes ED to stagger back into Danny’s grasp! But English Dragon out moves the Irishman and locks in a headlock! He then finishes with a DDT, grabbing Danny’s brown hair and tugging him right back up. “I told you Annie, both English Dragon and Korgath are too much for either man to handle” comments Judge. “Mmm…what I’d do to handle Janet,” murmurs Annie. Both Ejiro and Judge cast glances at each other as the action continues in the ring. English Dragon is busy stomping away at Danny’s ribs with hate gleaming from his eyes. English Dragon grins at Korgath before lifting Danny to his feet and delivers a series of hard chops that echo through the arena, as do the “Whooos” from the crowd with each chop. Danny is staggering backwards towards Korgath as Dragon makes the tag to Korgath before whipping Danny hard into the ropes. Both men duck down as Danny quickly stops, sending Dragon stumbling backwards with a hard shot to the face as Korgath lifts his head and delivers a massive lariat, sending Danny down hard on his back. “Well Danny trying to get something going but Korgath’s too much of a monster to let anything happen,” comments Ejiro. “It could be a good back and forth match…oh who am I kidding, Korgath and Dragon will easily pull this victory out,” exclaims Judge. Annie just sighs, chin resting on her hand and a vacant expression on her face as she just watches Janet at ringside. Ejiro and Judge both shake their heads knowing she’s stuck in her lull as Korgath is busy pounding Danny’s back with hard forearm shots. Danny continues to try and get up however Dominic is not making that task very easy. Dominic grabs Danny by the hair, lifting him to his feet violently before kicking him hard in the mid-section, sending Danny doubling over in pain. Dominic grabs Danny in a front waist lock and lifts him up, laying Danny on his right shoulder. Korgath grabs Danny’s legs and whips the legs down using the momentum to slam Danny hard into the mat on his upper back. Danny lets out a groan of pain as Korgath raises both arms to loud “De-Cay Sucks, De-Cay sucks” chants from the crowd. “A harsh sidewalk slam delivered by the monster known as Korgath,” comments Ejiro. “So…Annie, are you ever going to refocus on the match at hand?” asks Judge. “Huh?” replies Annie, looking around a bit startled. “Oh, uh…right. And Danny is lying on the mat in pain from a devastating maneuver delivered by Dominic Korgath,” mumbles Annie trying to cover. “Smooth…” quips Ejiro under his breath as Annie shoots a glare in his direction. Dominic lifts up Danny and whips him hard to the corner as Danny splats against the turnbuckles. Korgath rests himself against the opposite turnbuckle before letting out a roar and charging forward like a locomotive. Danny quickly dives to the right towards Dillon as Dominic smashes chest first with a THUD! Danny crawls and lunges, slapping Dillon’s hand as the crowd lets out a cheer of approval. Dillon leaps over the top rope and races towards Korgath nailing him with a hard clothesline however Dominic laughing shrugs it off. Tim bounces off the ropes with another clothesline, which has the same effect as the first one. Korgath points towards the ropes as Dillon bounces, charging again. Dominic ducks however Tim stops well short. Korgath slowly raises his head as Tim smiles and pokes him directly in the eye with his thumb! Korgath clutches at his eye and falls to one knee as the referee begins to admonish Dillon who just smiles and waves to Dragon, infuriating Dragon more. “What a blatant cheap shot by Dillon right there. This match should be over right now on account of a DQ!” cries Ejiro in outrage. “Damn right,” echoes Judge with agreement. “Oh please, Dragon and Korgath would make Ric Flair look like Bret Hart cheating wise if a referee wasn’t in there,” states Annie. Both Ejiro and Judge just remain quiet at this comment as Dillon begins to dance about the fallen Korgath. Dominic begins to get back to his feet as Dillon continues bouncing about, looking and waiting for an opening. Tim charges for a spear but Korgath catches him with a hard knee to the face sending Tim stumbling backwards. Dominic grabs Tim around the waist, clasps both hands together and lifts Tim up off his feet before planting him hard on the mat. Korgath makes a cover. 1… 2… “Conklin makes the save right in front of the referee. DQ him ref, two men in the ring at the same time!” barks Judge. “Yeah and did you see that impressive feat of strength there shown by Dominic? What a monster he is!” Ejiro calls out. “All I saw was a huge fat ass moving slowly in the ring executing moves in a very poor fashion” retorts Annie. Judge turns his attention to Annie with a glare as Annie returns the glare, daggers seemingly shooting from her eyes. Korgath bounces off the ropes, delivering a huge leg drop that makes the whole ring shake upon contact with his buttocks. He stays in the position, keeping his leg draped over Tim’s neck as the referee dives to the mat, ready to administer the count. 1… 2… Kick out by Dillon who barely managed that beneath the behemoth’s weight. Korgath gets up and delivers a few stomps to the chest before lumbering over to English Dragon and slapping hands, signifying the tag. The referee acknowledges the tag as Dragon steps in and immediately sends a rising Tim Dillon back down to the mat with a hard European uppercut. Dragon picks up Dillon and whips him hard into the ropes. Dragon leaps up for a leapfrog but Dillon stops using the ropes to aid him before delivering a nasty spear to English Dragon that nearly takes him out of his boots! The crowd starts up a “Two Drink Min-I-Mum” chant trying to rally the Irishman out of his mid-match slump. “Looks like the crowd is getting into this now after that great spear from Tim” says Annie. Judge and Ejiro both look at each other with wide grins. “That certainly was great wasn’t it…delivered so perfectly” sing songs Judge. “Of course, I mean after all Tim isn’t a lumbering fatass like Korgath right Annie?” sneers Ejiro. Annie just looks questioningly at the duo but neither man returns her gaze. Tim remains on his feet as he stomps away at Dragon who is quickly trying to get back to his feet. Tim backs off, letting English Dragon stand as Dragon shoots Dillon an icy look of contempt. Dragon charges forward, looking for a lariat but Tim takes him down smoothly with an arm drag. Dragon gets back to his feet, now irate as he charges again and again gets taken down with an arm drag as Dillon bows for the cheering crowd. Dragon walks over to his corner to talk things over with Korgath and try to settle himself down a little bit as Tim begins to do a little jig to play for the crowd as they begin a “Dill-on, Dill-on” chant that begins to rise in volume as Dragon walks forward, ready to lockup. “Dragon looking to keep his momentum going here” says Ejiro. “What momentum?” questions Annie who looks at both men with bewilderment crossing her face. “Come on Annie, Dragon clearly had the momentum going right there. Tim kept falling just as English Dragon tried to lockup with him and Dragon kept falling as well” comments Judge with a slight grin. “Oh please,” says Annie with disgust in her voice as both Ejiro and Judge let out a couple laughs thinking it a riot. Tim and Dragon walk towards each other and lockup, both men trying to jockey for position based on their strength. Neither man is getting a clear, distinct advantage until Dragon breaks it and pokes Tim in the eye before shoving Dillon hard towards his teams’ corner. Korgath grins as Dragon backs off listening to the admonishing referee. Conklin is on the apron trying to get the referee to turn around to no avail, as Korgath is busy wrapping the tag rope around his fist before nailing Dillon in the face with a couple hard punches. Korgath unwraps the tag rope and wraps it around Dillon’s throat as the crowd begins to boo relentlessly at these heelish actions. The referee finally turns around as Korgath quickly places his hand on the rope hiding it from the referee’s view as he checks that Dillon is okay to go. Conklin is irate on the apron, yelling at the referee as Dragon moves in and begins to nail a series of hard chops. “What great teamwork by English Dragon and Dominic Korgath, showing clearly that experience pays off more often then not” exclaims Ejiro with a slightly cheerier tone then usual. “You two make me sick you know that. That was as blatant a method of cheating if I ever did see one” shrills Annie with a slight twinge of anger in her voice. “Oh believe me sweetie, you make us just as sick when you cheer these men who only pander to the crowd rather then try to win their match” says Judge. Dragon tells Korgath to step back as Dragon lifts up Dillon and seats him on the top turnbuckle. English Dragon climbs up onto the top turnbuckle and throws Dillon’s arm over his shoulder as he grabs the tights and lifts Dillon up high into the air before both men crash hard into the canvas with a big superplex. The crowd lets out a big “OH!” as both men are in pain with Dillon probably the worse for wear. Dragon makes the cover not even having the strength to hook a leg. 1… 2… Conklin dives out of nowhere with a double axe handle to the back of English Dragon breaking up the cover! Now the referee is shoving Conklin back towards his corner, as Conklin is busy screaming in anger at the ref. Korgath meanwhile has now entered the ring and has lifted up Dillon to his feet. Korgath lifts up Dillon and holds him on his shoulders in an electric chair position as English Dragon slowly begins to make his way up to the top turnbuckle, as the referee is still busy with Conklin. “Looks like the best team in the ring right now is planning a little double team action for Dillon” remarks Judge. “Double teams…” says Annie who has returned her gaze to Janet, standing at ringside trying to also get the referee to turn around before shaking her head. “Now the fans can see what a real tag team looks like,” says Ejiro with a smug look on his face. “You wish Ejiro, fact is that your “boys” won’t be winning this one. Come on, you have the big pile of lard lumbering around. That alone is enough to sink this team, I mean jeez…” states Annie as Ejiro gives her a glare while Judge is practically on his feet awaiting the move. Dillon however begins to rain down right hands to Korgath’s skull. Dillon nails a hard driving elbow to Korgath’s noggin before sliding down his back! The referee turns around and is confused as to what is going on as Dragon gets down, yelling at Korgath to get his “big, oafish ass out of the way” as Dillon quickly scrambles to the corner and tags Conklin to a huge roar from the crowd with yet another “Two Drink Min-I-Mum” chant breaking out over the arena. “Oh no…” moans Ejiro. “God damnit!” cries Judge obviously not satisfied with the events that are transpiring right now. “Yes!” cries Annie with jubilation in her voice. Conklin is now in the ring and is a HOUSE EN FUEGO~! He sends Korgath stumbling into the ropes with a series of hard rights and lefts. Dillon is now back in and takes Dragon down with The Snap! Dillon is connecting with HARD rights and lefts, yelling some choice words in between the punches. Danny backs up and nails Korgath with a huge clothesline, sending the beast over the top rope and sprawled across the canvas on the outside! Dillon climbs back to his feet as he glances at Danny who motions to the slowly rising Dominic Korgath. Dillon grins, giving a quick thumbs up before bouncing off the ropes. Danny lies flat on his back, using his feet to propel Dillon into the air and over the top rope as Dillon smashes hard into Korgath back first with a Tope Senton Atomico! “What a move” screams Annie in absolute shock and disbelief. “What the hell happened Judge!” moans Ejiro, still trying to pretend that nothing is going wrong. Judge just sits there in stunned silence as Danny picks up Dragon and whips him hard into the ropes before catching him flush in the mid-section with a hard kick as the crowd is now on their feet, cheering wildly. Danny grabs English Dragon’s head and locks him in a front face lock. Danny looks over the cheering crowd before delivering a Snap DDT, sending Dragon cranium first into the canvas. Dillon climbs up onto the apron and begins to ascend the turnbuckles, one by one as Korgath is slowly climbing back to his feet. Dillon raises both arms into the air as the crowd cheers wildly. Tim crouches before springing himself off the top turnbuckle and driving his leg across the throat of English Dragon to a huge pop! Danny makes the cover! 1… 2… 3… “No! Somehow Dominic makes the save nailing Danny hard in the back with a big stomp breaking up the pin fall” shouts Ejiro over the cheering din of the crowd. “Oh man, I think I’m going to have a heart attack,” claims Judge. “I think I’ll just keep a close eye on Janet over here and make sure she doesn’t get hurt or anything…” remarks Annie who now has a dreamy look in her eyes reminiscent to earlier on in the match. Korgath is busy slugging away at Conklin, sending him against the ropes. Dillon quickly climbs onto the apron next to Conklin and makes the tag, which the referee acknowledges by slapping his hands together. Dillon climbs back into the ring and begins to pound away at the back of Korgath, as Korgath turns around, quite pissed off. Danny climbs onto the apron and leaps off, driving Dominic’s skull into the mat with a springboard bulldog to a huge pop as Tim climbs onto the apron and delivers a springboard leg drop, driving his foot across Dominic’s throat as the crowd remains on their feet, cheering wildly. “Oh…” moans Ejiro as if he’ll throw up at any moment. Annie continues to gaze at Janet who’s standing ringside as Judge looks ready to smack her hard on the back of her head but decides not to so as to not feel her wrath. Danny kicks Korgath out of the ring as he turns around, looking over the cheering crowd. Dillon lifts up English Dragon, looking for a snap suplex. Dillon lifts up Dragon but Dragon manages to land on his feet as he grabs Dillon’s arm in a full nelson! Dillon however kicks backwards, low blowing Dragon to a big pop from the crowd. Dillon hooks Dragon’s arm over his shoulder, grabs the tights and delivers a beautiful snap suplex driving English Dragon hard into the mat back first. Dillon keeps the hold of Dragon’s tights locked as Danny leaps over Dragon’s body and begins to ascend the turnbuckle. Danny pauses on the top turnbuckle, looking over the cheering crowd. Danny leaps off, flipping forward and spreading his body out into a splash position, only to SPLAT against the mat! “Dragon manages to break Dillon’s hold and rolls out of the way!” exclaims Judge in surprise. “Danny taking a hard bump on his chest after the missed 450 though I can already feel the compassion flowing from you two...” mutters Annie as Ejiro looks hurt by that remark. “For your information missy, we happen to have compassion but unfortunately, it’s not for the people you like,” remarks Ejiro with a slight smirk growing. Danny is busy lying on the mat, clutching his stomach in pain, as the referee is over to check on him. Dragon low blows Dillon to huge boos from the crowd and chants of “cheat-er, cheat-er” as Dragon lifts up Dillon in a pile driver position before placing both legs over Dillon’s arms. Dillon however manages to get his arms free and uses the muscles in his mid-section to get on Dragon’s shoulders in a hurricanranna position! Tim swings around so he’s in an electric chair position before sliding down Dragon’s back and hooking Dragon in an inverted face lock! Dillon grabs Dragon’s tights, lifts him up and delivers the Blood and Whiskey to a monstrous pop! The referee is now over on his stomach as the crowd is chanting along, nearly making it hard to hear the announcers. 1… 2… 3!!! “WHAT?” cries Ejiro and Judge in unison! “I told you two that Two Drink Minimum would win and no, that’s not an invitation to drink tonight with you two” comments Annie, smirking the whole time as Ejiro and Judge look at each other with expressions of sadness and contempt. “Oh just shut up Annie…” sneers Judge, still none too happy with the matches outcome. “Yeah, if you knew what was good for you…erm…never mind” remarks Ejiro who quickly shifts his eyes away from a glaring Annie. “You’d better not finish that Ejiro. Alright, let’s go to commercial then since I want to see if I can get a quick word with Jan…erm the camera operator and see if he can focus on me better” mumbles Annie, quickly blushing.

Guest Powerplay Report post Posted July 30, 2003 Okay, I'll give some quick comments on this right now... First off, your commentary is superb. No one in the JL comes close to getting the characters nearly dead on like you guys do. You also wrote it very well and you had me on my seat for the most part. What killed you? The hot tag. It was all good until Dillon came right back in. After being basically the face in peril he should have stayed out for a bit until the very end with the tag finisher. But having him come in right after really jumbled everything up, making the ending too much of a CF for me. Otherwise this was a great great match to read. Your blending is fantastic and you guys should definitely stick in the tag team division for a bit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
