King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2006 COLE And up next, it's the beginning of the 2006 Anderson Cup in the form of a real international encounter. In terms of the past year, the most improved tag team in the OAOAST could easily be a title given to The Sooner Bruisers. They ran through the #1 Contenders The New, New Midnight Express just a couple of months ago at November Reign. Meanwhile, their opponents are a team representing HI-YAH Promotions in this year's tournament, Glory By Anarchy. The team debuted in the OAOAST two years ago but soon relocated to Japan and enjoyed it so much, they've stayed there since. However, the lure of a Tag Team Title shot at AngleMania IV has drawn them back to American shores for this year's competition. At this time, while Coach and Caboose have a shirtless fight to the death in the parking lot...or, alternatively, grab themselves some coffee, it's my honour to bring in HI-YAH's head announcer, "The Professor" Mike Tenay to call this match with me. Mike, welcome. TENAY Thank you Michael...and, thank you for reading the notes I'd prepared for myself. COLE No problem. TENAY So, who's your money on? *grabs notes* COLE Uh...the Japanese guys? Glory Boy Energy? TENAY Caboose warned me you'd be this clueless, but I honestly didn't believe him. Until now. "FIIIIIRRRRREEEEE!!" "Fire" by Scooter hits to minimal reaction as the virtual unkowns in the U.S, Glory By Anarchy, make their way out. The HI-YAH duo powerwalk to the ring, the stockier Black leading the way while Romero fiddles with his mullet and lags behind somewhat. Black strides up the steps and goes righ to his corner, Romero close behind. BUFFER The following contest is a first-round match in the 2006 Anderson Cup, scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, representing HI-YAH Promotions tonight. At a total combined weight of four hundred, seventy three pounds. The team of NATHAN BLACK and JASPER ROMERO... GLLOOOORRRYYY BY AAAANNAAAARRRCCHHHHYYYYY!!! The GBA gets a mixed reaction and a few, Japanese style streamers thrown into the ring from a small collection of fans grouped behind their corner. The referee Charles Robinson ends up with the tedious job of getting the streamers from the ring, while The GBA discuss strategy. TENAY These two men had a very successful 2005 in HI-YAH, but the one blot on their record was the repeated failure to capture the HI-YAH Tag Team Championships from The Love Doctors. They wrestle a very Japanese style and are both deceptively powerful. The problem tonight is, they're up against two men in The Sooner Bruisers who also favour that style...and will be more suited to it, due to their size advantages over both Glory By Anarchy members. Tonight, we may need to see a different tactic from The GBA. COLE Well, it's hard to see these two matching and beating The Sooners for power. TENAY To be fair, they've faced larger wrestler than they before and fared well. But, it's not the wise option to go toe to toe with Frank and Frankie. As the ring is cleared of pesky tissue paper, "Frankenstein" by Edgar Winter hits and the crowd show their allegiance as they cheer heartily for the duo of Frank and Frankie Frankensteiner! Frankie barks his way down to the ring, leaving Frank to show off his byte-ceps to the crowd, giving each bicep a quick kiss just to show how proud of his peaks he really is. Frankie is already in the ring, doing a quick dog-like circle that forces The GBA into retreat to the floor. BUFFER And, their opponents hail from Oklahoma! At a total combined weight of five hundred and thirty five pounds... FRANK FRANKENSTEINER! FRANKIE FRANKENSTEINER! THE SSSOOOOOONNEEEEEERRRRR BBRRRRUUUIIISSSSEEEEERRRRRRSSSSS!!! "YYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" Frank finally gets to the ring and tears himself away from his muscles for long enough to actually climb into the squared circle. Watching on from the corner, The GBA show no sign of nerves. Even as Frank points a threatening finger their way and telling them to "take a good look, bitches" while he gives a double bicep pose! Romero is ready to accept the gauntlet, flicking back his hair/mullet...but Black holds him back. COLE The Sooner Bruisers don't seem overly concerned with their opponents tonight, which isn't a good mindset to come in with. TENAY Certainly not. The Sooners are many people's darkhorse picks to go all the way to AngleMania and they certainly have all the tools to be Tag Team Title contenders. But being over-confident will lose your more matches than it'll win you. *DINGDINGDING!* As the bell sounds, The Psycho Gremlin decides to start the match for his team and jogs across the ring, still barking his head off. Jasper Romero looks most confused by this, but steps into the ring anyway and again makes sure his mullet is at it's finest before he goes into action. Frankie offers up a knucklelock, drawing Romero in...before pulling it away and sweeping behind Romero with a double leg takedown! Back to a seated position hops Romero, but Frankie grabs him in a waistlock to keep him controlled. TENAY Here's another advantage the Sooners have...they're both superb amateur wrestlers and can go to the mat with the best of them. Romero tries to squirm free. But Frankie hangs onto the waistlock tightly, so Romero uses his leverage against him and levers himself up to his feet, popping Frankie in the jaw with an elbow on the way. Romero lands another two elbows to free himself and hits the ropes in front, only to run straight into a boot to the chest! Stumbling backwards, Romero then almost falls prey to a devestating SOONERLINE... ...but manages to duck and scuttle from the ring to collect his thoughts. TENAY That was a close one! Romero and Black have done their homework I'm sure and they know they must, must, avoid those devestating Soonerlines that both Frank and Frankie utilise. COLE Indeed...we saw them take out everyone in their paths with them during the Lethal Rumble Match last week. As Frankie waits on all fours, Romero composes himself and re-enters the ring. Again Frankie offers up a knucklelock, but this time Romero swats it away and snatches on a side headlock. Frankie quickly goes to the ribs with some forearms and escapes behind into a hammerlock. Swinging out with an elbow, Romero suddenly finds himself spun around as Frankie ducks the elbow, stepping in front and keeping the hammerlock applied as he throws 'Romeo' overhead with a Hammerlock Release Belly To Belly Suplex! "OOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" Romero lands with his arm beneath him, rolling in agony as Frankie gives the crowd a little more barking before tagging in his brother. The Man Of Tommorrow casually steps in and pulls Romero up, wringing the arm and DRIVING his elbow into the shoulder...and again! Keeping hold of the arm, Frank then flips Romero onto his back and drops a leg across the arm. Frank then crosses his other leg over top of the arm, applying a short-arm scissors. TENAY The Sooners seem to be targeting the arm here which is a much more controlled strategy than simply coming in and throwing their opponents around. And in a single elimination environment such as this, you have to be able to do that. It's all very well winning and winning well, but one mistake and you could be gone completely. Frank is making no mistake with his work on the arm, as he tightens on the short-arm scissors. Trying for an escape, Romero prepares to roll backwards. That puts too much torque on his arm though, so he instead snaps his boot forward and catches Frank in the face...repeatedly, until he finally breaks away. Both men come to their feet and Frank goes to the arm. Romero sidesteps and pushes Frank off into the ropes. Back charges the Sooner, but Romero manages to leapfrog over him! And as Frank rebounds a second time, Romero lands a beautiful standing dropkick to the jaw! Managing not to land on his bad arm Romero is then able to scramble over and tag in his more experienced partner, Nathan Black. COLE In comes Black, who we could probably call the 'captain' of the team. TENAY Certainly. Black is somewhat of a mentor to his younger partner and he reached the final of the HI-YAH Heavyweight Championship tournament last year, losing to Bohemoth in that match. Scooping Frank off the canvas, The Iceman sends his opponent into the corner with an irish whip...and follows in, slamming his forearm into the jaw of The Man Of Tommorrow! Frank falls to a knee, only to be pulled up by Black. Setting Frank up, Black then attempts a suplex. Frank proves too powerful and/or heavy to take over though, so Black ends up settling for some CLUBBERING~! forearms across the back! "BOO - MER SOO - NER!" *clap clap clapclapclap* "BOO - MER SOO - NER!" *clap clap clapclapclap* "BOO - MER SOO - NER!" *clap clap clapclapclap* Not allowing the hostile crowd to affect him, The Iceman then sends Frank across the ring into the opposite corner, looking for another big forearm in the buckles... ...AND MISSES! Black crashes into the turnbuckles, as Frank narrowly avoids the contact. Back staggers Black, straight into a waistlock and a German, with a bridge... 1... 2... Kickout! Despite the kickout, Frank hangs onto the waistlock doggedly and drags Black up to his feet for another German attempt. This time, Black hooks his foot around The Man Of Tommorrow's leg and blocks the move...and blocks again. His reward is a heavy forearm to the spine, sending him sprawling forward. Frank tags in Frankie before he then pulls Black up, sending him into the ropes with a whip and stepping aside to allow Frankie to execute a BIG powerslam!! 1... 2... Kickout! TENAY These Frankensteiners are just so explosive...so damn powerful! And as they gain more experience, they're going to become a force to be reckoned with! Frankie comes up and waits on Black, possibly for a SOONERLINE~! Trying to enter the ring, Jasper Romero is stopped by Charles Robinson and that in turn distracts Frankie who storms over to get rid of Romero. He turns his back on Black though, allowing him to sneak up behind Frankie and spin him around... ...SOONERLI... ...NO, DUCKED! Black ducks the Soonerline, catching Frankie in a half nelson and lifting him into a Half Nelson Backbreaker!! "OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE Wow! He got him up, just enough to land that devestating backbreaker variation! TENAY Just as we mentioned before the match, these men possess deceptive strength and we just saw some of it there! Having just been folded up across Black's knee, Frankie writhes in pain. Black is meanwhile heading across the apron and up towards the top rope. Frankie is still down in the centre of the ring as Black reaches the top and with no hint of playing to the crowd, being an Iceman and all, he soars off the top with a picture perfect Diving Kneedrop that almost drives right through Frankie's sternum!! Black makes the cover moments later... 1... 2... ...FRANK BREAKS THE PIN! "YYEEEEAAAAAAHHHHH!!" Frank gives poor Charles Robinson a verbal tongue lashing on his way out of the ring, while Black sets about pulling Frankie over to his corner and making the tag to Romero. Together, The GBA pull Frankie back to his feet and send him into the ropes with a double irish whip, landing a double back elbow to put The Psycho Gremlin down. TENAY I think The GBA are simply trying to consolidate some sort of advantage now, trying to slow the Sooner Bruisers' momentum down. They've slowed the pace and they're keeping the Man Of Tommorrow out on the apron. Now the legal man, Romero pulls Frankie up and pops him with a forearm. He follows that up with a boot to the gut and then shows impressive strength to hoist Frankie onto his shoulders, carrying him across the ring for a simple fireman's carry and following that up with a legdrop! Romero then fixes his mullet, before hitting a second legdrop. With a combo in sight, Romero then hits the ropes and goes for a third legdrop...MISSES! Frankie rolls out of the way and Romero ends up jarring his spine on the mat. He's straight back up though and lunges over to tag Black, The Iceman rushing into the ring to prevent Frankie from reaching his corner. TENAY An important save made by The Iceman there. And a very smart tag from Jasper Romero Unloading with forearms, Black manages to back Frankie into the ropes and then sets him for an irish whip. Frankie spins out of the whip though, pulling Black in with a short-arm and popping him over with a T-Bone Suplex! TENAY But all of The GBA's good work is undone with just one suplex! Black goes tumbling across the ring, as Frankie climbs back up. And smartly, he gives in to his partner's request and MAKES THE TAG!! "YYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" TENAY And here comes Frank!! The Man Of Tommorrow, Frank Frankensteiner, steps into the ring to a big pop from the crowd. First in line is Jasper Romero, as he runs in and gets sent HIGH overhead with a backbody drop! Frank then grabs Black, throwing him overhead with a Release Belly To Belly Suplex! Staggering up, Romero advances on Frank..but gets caught and thrown in Release Belly To Belly style as well!! Frank then goes back to the legal man in the match, pulling The Iceman up and sending him into the corner, before following in with a big clothesline! Black slumps into the corner, while Frank jogs across the ring and grabs Romero, whipping him into a pile-up in the corner with his partner...and nailing them both with a clothesline in the corner! COLE The Man Of Tommorrow is knocking both of his opponents straight into next week! TENAY What domination being shown by Frank Frankensteiner...and look, his partner can just afford to watch on! Casually, Frank throws Romero out of the ring like SO much trash. He's only concerned with the legal man, Nathan Black, who goes high overhead and lands on his shoulder from a brutal T-Bone Suplex! Crawling over, Frank makes the pin... 1... 2... ...BUT BLACK IS OUT AT TWO! Undettered, Frank pulls Black back up. Sending him into the ropes, Frank then catches Black on the rebound, spinning The Iceman around with ease and planting him with his patented Tilt-A-Whirl Suplex! FRANK HUH!?! "YYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!" TENAY Well I think it may be Frankensteiner time! COLE Oh yeah, they're both ready! TENAY No, no...THE Frankensteiner. COLE Yeah, but which one!?! TENAY ... Pulling up Black, Frank is indeed setting up for The Frankensteiner, whipping Black into the ropes...but Black holds on, stopping his momentum. In charges Frank, but Black beats him to it and lands a high knee! Frank stays up, so Black charges again...and gets caught again. Another Overhead Release Belly To Belly sends Black soaring... ...BUT HE GETS RIGHT BACK UP!! TENAY FIGHTING SPIRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT~! Yet to notice, Frank shows off his peaks for the fans, before turning around... ...BLACK LARIAT... ...IS DUCKED!! Black skids to a halt and turns, met by a boot to the gut and snatched into a double underhook. Knowing what comes next though, Black frantically throws and fits until he struggles free, twisting out in front of Frank and kicking him in the gut. Black then switches behind and applies a waistlock, ready for the Anarchistic License (Chaos Theory). Stubbornly, Frank puts up a fight. But Black releases the waistlock and clubs away at the back of Frank until he's weakened up, then charges for the corner. FRANKIE DUCK! Suddenly, Frankie Frankensteiner is in and yells for his brother to duck as he aims a SOONERLINE right at his head... ...Frank ducks... ...AND FRANKIE TAKES BLACK'S HEAD OFF!! TENAY OH! The devestating Soonerline, connects! Jasper Romero tries to get in, but Frankie barges him off the apron, as Frank falls back on top of Black... 1... 2... 3!!! *DINGDINGDING!* TENAY And that's it! One Soonerline and Nathan Black is put out! A convincing victory for the Sooner Bruisers here tonight and they will advance on! Frankie pulls his older brother up and pats him on the back, while Frank shows off the muscles one more time for his 'cyber-freaks'.
