Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted January 9, 2006 You know the deal. Will let you know when done. Tony, Eski, if you feel anything should be edited or added, go for it. DING! DING! DING! The ringbell sounds to gain the attention of the fans, as we are ready for our next contest on HeldDOWN~! Ring announcer extraordinaire Michael Buffer is already in the ring, ready to do his thing, so let's take it to him! BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest, set for one fall, is an opening round contest in the Anderson Cup! "Quiet" hits immediately following Buffer's proclomation, and it signifies the entrace of the former OAOAST World Tag Team Champions, and two of the Originals. BUFFER Introducing first, weighing in at a combined weight of five hundred, twenty six pounds, they are the former OAOAST World Tag Team Champions. Tony Brannigan, Dan Black...BLACK T! Brannigan and Black, two of the most dangerous competitors in company history, hit the ring ready for action. Despite their tendencies (Black's especially), the duo gets a respectable amount of cheers from the crowd as they hit the ring. Once their music fades, the sound of "My Own Summer" by The Deftones hits, and it's a new theme for two old faces, back once again to ply their trade on HeldDOWN~! BUFFER Their opponents, weighing in tonight at five hundred, twenty three pounds, this is the team of "Strong Stylin'" JAMES BLONDE, and "The Samoan Tsunami", FAQU! The pair, who started off their careers hating one another, yet stuck together realizing they made quite the team, hit the ring with their "new look", as Blonde now wears long red tights with a black tribal design down the leg, black kneepads, and black boots. Faqu now sports semi-short tights, white with a wave design to reflect his Samoan Tsunami nickname. The team, who has spent much time in Japan working for the HI-YAH promotion, enter the ring and standoff with Black T, who look ready, yet unimpressed with the rejuvenated duo. COLE This should be an interesting contest. We haven't seen Blonde or Faqu for some time, but we do know that they are staples of the HI-YAH promotion over in Japan. COACH Sometimes people need a change of scenery to refresh themselves. Nobody gave these two any credit four years ago when they couldn't get past Mario Logan levels of usefulness, but here they are in the Anderson Cup. Dan Black, an international superstar in his own right, opts to start things out for Black T. James Blonde lets his partner off the hook and starts out for his team, and three dings later the match is underway! Collar and elbow tieup in the middle, and Blonde shows a decisive strength advantage by forcing Black back, pushing him into the corner. Referee Charles Robinson immediately calls for a break, and Blonde does, backing away slowly while Black keeps both eyes zoned in on him. Blonde smirks and waves Black towards him, and the two lock up again, and once again Blonde forces Dan Black back to the corner, then breaks and backs away smirking! CABOOSE OK, are we gonna wrestle here, or what? COACH Man, I think my batshot last week made you MORE bitter. CABOOSE Yeah, but then you run to your buddy Axel to have the imaginary handcuffs thrown on me to protect your ass. COACH Hey, if you need to earn a living so bad, play by the rules, playa. Inside the ring, Black sneers at the cocky look on Blonde's face, and ties up with him again, but as Blonde starts forcing him backwards towards the corner, Dan drops out of the lockup and puts him on his back with a double leg takedown! Black then mounts the upper body of Blonde and starts clubbing at him with forearm shots before deciding to break, and bring Blonde up to his feet. An Irish whip to the ropes sends Blonde bouncing back towards Black, who drops his head and then throws the international star up and over with a high elevation back bodydrop! Blonde squirms as he comes up off the canvas, not noticing Black crouched in the ready position behind him. Blonde staggers to his feet and spins around, right into a kick to the gut...BLACKOUT...NO! Blonde pushes Black away and does the stop, drop and roll routine, right out to the floor! COACH Good man, good thinking! Props to James Blonde! COLE Props for running away? Blonde runs his hand through his hair and backpedals around ringside, but when he turns the corner he's floored by a running lariat from Tony Brannigan, who picks him up and throws him back into the ring! The crowd lets Tony know they approve of the move, while Blonde is both stunned and angered as he comes to his feet. COLE I don't think that this is the week that James Blonde is going to want to take Dan Black and Tony Brannigan lightly. COACH Timing is everything, Cole. Their minds are so warped with what's going on in the company that mentally, they're not prepared to face this duo of Blonde and Faqu. Upset city right here, I'm callin' it! CABOOSE Kind of like the GPX and the Diablos last week, right Coach? Blonde shouts over the ropes at Brannigan, but that's put to a stop when Dan Black swings Blonde around and connects with a hard chop. And another! And another! Black fires him towards the ropes, but it gets reversed, and it's Black who gets sent in. Blonde tucks his head for a back bodydrop, but Black puts on the brakes and yanks on Blonde's hair, sending him down to the canvas on his back! Black then goes and takes his legs, pulling them apart, and then delivers a hard stomp to the wide open midsection, causing Blonde to curl up in agony! Black then goes and tags in Brannigan, who gets right to work, pulling Blonde up and applying a side headlock. COLE The former World Heavyweight Champion is now the legal man, and so far Black T has looked as dominant as ever, here in this Anderson Cup bout. Tony wrenches the head of Blonde, but is eventually shoved to the ropes. The weary Blonde drops to his stomach, but Tony leaps over him and runs to the far side...but as he rebounds Blonde swings his body around, rolling from his stomach onto his side and sweeping both of Tony's legs out from under him! Blonde gets to his feet, then jumps onto Tony's chest, driving both feet into it with a stomp, and then tags in the big man, Faqu. COACH Oooooh boy, this could get interesting. The Samoan Tsunami steps through the ropes slowly, eyeing Brannigan the whole way. Tony rises to his feet clutching his chest, no doubt angered at being stomped on. Faqu offers an evil sneer towards his opponent, and the two circle the ring before tying up...although they don't get that far, as when Tony throws his arms up, Faqu connects with a roundhouse kick to the ribs! Faqu then tilts Tony's head back and brings his open palm down across his with a chop that staggers Brannigan! The large Samoan then scoops Tony up...but before he's slammed the canvas Brannigan slips free, then turns Faqu around and levels the 290 pounder with a scoop slam! COLE Thunderous slam by Brannigan! Faqu rolls to his feet almost immediately, fighting off the effects of that slam, when Brannigan bounces off the ropes and nails him with a running kneelift! Brannigan hits the ropes again, but this time runs right into a side savate kick from the Samoan Tsunami (c'mon, TRY to say that three times fast), and the resulting impact turns him around as he staggers towards the ropes...where Blonde takes him by the head and drops his throat on the top rope! Brannigan then reels backwards, right into the waiting arms of Faqu, who hoists him overhead and drops him on the back of his neck with a release German suplex! The big man then gets up and charges to the ropes, coming off with a BIG SPLASH~! that drives the wind out of Tony's body, and resulst in Blonde and Faqu making the first pin attempt of the contest! ONE! T-KICKOUT! CABOOSE The first pinfall didn't go so well for Blonde and Faqu, but the very idea that this team, at one time relegated to lowercard matches, have come so far in recent years that they can hang with Black T and be entered into this tournament is a testament to their abilities. Faqu pries Tony off the canvas and immediately whips him to the corner, but when the big man charges in, Tony kicks both feet up into his chest, driving him back! Tony bursts forward with a lariat, but Faqu ducks it, and when Tony turns back around, he's grabbed in a hug (but not an affectionate one, oh no) and laid out with a belly to belly suplex! Faqu drags Tony towards the ropes and tags in Blonde, who slingshots over the ropes at the same ti the huge Samoan star hits a STANDING MOONSAULT, and together they land on Brannigan with tremendous impact! COLE AMAZING! A near 300 pound man with that agility is a force to be reckoned with! Blonde covers, hooking the leg... ONE! TW-NO! Black runs in and hits a boot to the head of the Strong Stylin' Superstar, breaking up the pin! COACH See, now this match would be over, but in typical Original fashion... CABOOSE ...typical ORIGINAL fashion? As if you and The Upstarts haven't... COACH Uh uh, 'boose. Remember, show an unbiased effort, or those checks you bring home are going to stop. The blackmailed broadcaster hushes up, but it's against his will, as Blonde gets up and complains to the referee about Black's involvement. Blonde turns his attention from Robinson back to Brannigan, but is caught by the veteran with a fireman's carry that dumps him on his back! As Blonde gets up, Tony goes up with him, and takes him by the wrist, then follows up with an arm wrench, and finally, a hard chop that echoes throughout the building! Blonde reels, then fires back with one of his own, equally as hard...so Tony fires back with a right hand that drops the blonde bomber! Blonde staggers to his feet, right into an inverted atomic drop, and then is taken over with a snap suplex, complete with Tony rolling over into a cover on Blonde! ONE! TW-KICKOUT! COLE Tony looking to put the duo of Blonde and Faqu away, but it's not as easy as he may have thought. Tony pulls Blonde up and rocks him with another suplex, and then tags in Black, who steps through the ropes and starts putting the boots to Blonde. He hoists him up and sends him to the ropes, and Blonde rebounds right into a back elbow, then gets hooked by the waist and dumped on his head with a quick back suplex! Black pulls him up and fires off a pair of forearms to the back of the neck, then shoves Blonde to the ropes again and tries a hiptoss, but Blonde prevents himself from being tossed over, strikes Black with a knee to the gut, and hits a double underhook release suplex that sends Black across the ring! COACH Nice distance on that toss! Black pushes up to his feet, but as he does Blonde comes over and springs off the canvas onto his shoulders, snapping him over with a quick huracanrana! Blonde then paces himself, not wanting to overdo his efforts, and as Black pushes up off the canvas again, Blonde hits the ropes and comes behind Black with a running lariat, blasting him hard across the back of the head! COLE A Northern lariat has just dropped Dan Black, and we've got a cover going on in the ring! This could be it! ONE! TW-NO! Dan Black rolls a shoulder right at the count of two! Blonde traps Black in a front facelock and brings him towards his corner, tagging in the big man, who enters and delivers a kick to the open ribs of Black. A chop across the back follows, and then Black is rocked by a European uppercut...but musters the strength to fire one of his own and nail Faqu! Faqu responds with a hard chop to the chest, and Black responds with one of his own to that as well, then blinds him with an eye rake! Black then sets Faqu up as if for a Russian legsweep, but instead delivers a back mule kick between the legs that keels the big man over! Robinson protests the low blow, but Black bounds right past him, and comes off the ropes with a swinging neckbreaker to his opponent! Black gets up and nails Blonde with a punch, knocking him down to the floor, before rolling Faqu onto his stomach and leaping into the air, coming down with a hard knee to the back of the neck! COLE Dan Black has succeeded in getting the big man on the mat, and...WAIT! Heart of Ice coming up! Black lays on the mat and pulls back on Faqu's head, and nearly locks on his patented crossface hold...until Blonde reaches in and drags Dan out to the floor by his ankle! Blonde delivers a kick to the stomach and then cracks Black between the shoulder blades with a hard forearm, but as he sets Black in a standing headscissors position, Dan manages to grab his arm and twist, going behind him with the arms locked behind his head... ...AND THEN DROS JAMES BLONDE WITH A RELEASE DRAGON SUPLEX ON THE FLOOR! CABOOSE HIS NECK! MY GOD! COACH Oh yeah, what an accomplished broadcaster, uttering a whole four syllables. "HOLY SHIT!" "HOLY SHIT!" "HOLY SHIT!" Black gets up, as the crowd chants in shock. All of a sudden, Faqu dusts himself off and gets to his feet, then hits the ropes, DIVING THROUGH THE ROPES with a bodypress that floors the stunned Dan Black, and further shocks the crowd! COLE HE'S TWO HUNDRED AND NINETY POUNDS AND HE JUST SOARED LIKE AN EAGLE! We've never seen that out of Faqu before! COACH Seems like HI-YAH has paid off for these two. The "holy shit" chants don't stop with the Dragon Suplex, as they continue for the big man's dive. He gets up and tosses Blonde back into the ring, then hops up on the apron...AND HITS A SLINGSHOT SENTON ON DAN BLACK! COVER! ONE! TWO! NO! FOOT ON THE ROPE! COACH That was pure luck! Faqu drags Black away from the ropes, then runs into them, getting some momentum before he leaps in the air and comes down on Dan Black with another splash...BUT LANDS ON NOTHING BUT KNEE! Faqu curls up into a ball, while Black rolls onto his stomach and crawls for his corner. COLE Dan Black's got to make the tag here. CABOOSE I don't think anyone will stop him. Certainly not James Blonde! Black makes the tag with ease, and a crowd pop comes up for Tony's entrance back into the match! He rocks the recovering Samoan with a trifecta of right hands, then sends him to the ropes and lifts the big man off his feet, rocking the ring as he drives him to the canvas with a hard powerslam! Tony hooks the leg, and Robinson dives to the canvas to make the count... ONE! TWO! T-NO! ...but the big man escapes, getting his shoulder up at the last second! COLE He's fighting, but how much more can Faqu take, especially without a partner to tag in? CABOOSE Imagine defeating Black T despite those odds, though? What a coup that could be! Tony brings Faqu up, but a throat thrust knocks the former World Champion back a few steps...and a jump spinning wheel kick knocks him down to the canvas! Brannigan holds his jaw and makes sure it's not dislocated as he rolls around on the mat, while Faqu heads for the corner and starts climbing the ropes. He looks down on the floor to see his partner still laid out, but then continues his climb up to the top...but a groggy Tony stumbles towards the ropes and shakes them enough to crotch the big man on top! Faqu falls hard, then falls back to the mat with a resounding thud, and Tony is right there to pick up the pieces. He sends the big man into the ropes, and waits with open arms, catching im with the OUT OF BODY...NO! Faqu boxes the ears of Tony, then sends him to the ropes...where Black makes a blind tag! Faqu catches Tony and presses him up over his head, but before he can drop him Black comes in and delivers a kick to the stomach, which drops Tony on his feet behind Faqu...AND THEN BLACK HITS A BLACKOUT ON FAQU~! The big man teeters, but he's caught before he falls and spun around by Tony, who shows his strength by hitting THE OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE on him, leaving him prone for a Black cover! ONE! TWO! THREE! DING! DING! DING! "Quiet" hits, but the fans are anything but, after that impressive victory from the most acclaimd tag team in company history. COLE Like their methods or not, they have advanced in the Anderson Cup! BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen your winners, advancing on in the tournament...BLLLLLAAAAAAACK TEEEEEEE! Dan Black hovers over the big Samoan, sneering, then looks up towards the hard camera and chuckles a bit. Tony goes and gets on the second rope and raises his hands up, then turns to the camera as well and offers a nod, showing that both men know just how good they are. CABOOSE Tough loss for Blonde and Faqu, ESPECIALLY the former, who is still out at ringside! COACH The loss will be easier for him to take that way. As Tony poses on the ropes, he looks across the crowd, smiling...but the smile fades as he locks eyes with one man in the crowd. A look of confusion crosses Brannigan's face as he spies Hoff, the former star applauding the dominant Black T victory. COACH Uh-oh. COLE It looks like Tony Brannigan has caught sight of Hoff...and I don't think he likes what he's seeing! Tony climbs down from the ropes and immediately steps through the ring ropes, hopping onto the floor below. As the fans in front stretch their arms, trying to get a feel of T-Bod's chiseled physique, Brannigan puts his hands on his hips. The carefree attitude Hoff has sported all evening is gone in an instant, replaced by a look of hesitance and confusion. Hoff shrugs as the words "what are you doing here?" are heard coming from Tony's lips. CABOOSE Well, it's about time that somebody took offense to that man's presence. Tony is shouting at Hoff, gesturing wildly with his hands. Hoff, taken aback, can only hold out his hands, trying to calm the former OAOAST champ down. Brannigan, though, is having none of it. At this point, Dan Black, who had been jawing with some fans on the other side of the ring, slowly makes his way to the scene, not really understanding what's going on. COLE It looks like...it looks like Tony is taking offense to Hoff's presence-- CABOOSE Wouldn't you? COLE ...but Hoff doesn't seem to want any of it! Brannigan, agitated, waves Hoff off and turns to leave, but after a step, he doubles back, getting right in Hoff's face. Pressed against the guardrail (giving one lucky lady a hell of a show!), Tony waves Hoff on, begging him to get out of his seat. CABOOSE Don't waste your time, Tony, the man's a coward. COLE Caboose, like him or not, Hoff hasn't done anything tonight, he seems like he's just here as a fan. CABOOSE After what he did, I'll never trust him. Hoff shakes his head, turning away from Tony and sitting back in his chair. Disgusted, Tony grabs the Pepsi-Cola cup out of a young girl's hand and hurls it in Hoff's face! The fans "oooooh" as the cup explodes on Hoff's cheek, sending the cola spraying all over the big man's face, hair, and white shirt. COLE Oh...my. COACH It's on now! COLE Tony has... Hoff's eyes widen, his jaw drops, and his fists clench as, in an instant, the big man is on his feet. Fans start cheering as Tony pulls his arm free from a genuinely surprised Dan Black, smiles a dark smile at Hoff and waves him on. Hoff breathes deeply, then snaps his arm up, aiming an index finger squarely at Brannigan. Hoff shoves a couple fans aside and steps up a row. The two men jut their heads out, nearly nose-to-nose as the insults fly. CABOOSE Come on, Tony, let him have it! Black looks on incredulously as the two powerhouses seem ready to come to blows-- but out of nowhere, OAOAST Security is on the scene! Carl Winslow leads the charge, grabbing Tony by the shoulders, and Black helps out, actually pulling his partner from the fight! Meanwhile, the same detail that escorted Hoff to his seat has grabbed his arms, pulling him back and ushering him away! COLE It's a good thing security has arrived, because these two men were ready to go! COACH Good thing? We could have had Tony Brannigan taken out! CABOOSE You watch your mouth, you punk. The arena buzzes as both men are slowly led away. Once Hoff is halfway up the steps, Tony is let go, and the veteran superstar levels a glare at Hoff, telling him "don't you EVER set foot here again." Hoff's eyes are wild as the cola drips from the bottom of his shirt, snarling as he's escorted from the building. COLE Well I cannot believe what we have just seen! Hoff is gone, but he--he definitely made an impact! Good lord! Brannigan holds up his arms as he walks backwards through the curtain, playing to a cheering crowd. Security follows him, and Dan Black, with a smug grin, brings up the rear. COLE Well Black T successful in the Anderson Cup, proving again how great they are as a team. We'll have more great action, right after this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
