Zack Malibu vs. Faqu vs. Jamie O'Hara

[Zack Malibu 0]

As we return to HeldDOWN~!, the sounds of "My Own Summer" by The Deftones come over the speakers in the arena just seconds after the feed is restored. That can only mean one thing for the audience in the arena and at home...that it's time for the HI-YAH Championship Three Way Dance!

 

COLE

Welcome back fans, and if you're just tuning in you've picked a great time, because right now, we are about to see three of the most exciting competitors in our company do battle for championship gold!

 

As Triple C hype the event, an individual with a growing fanbase is making his way to the ring, to the delight of the China fans.

 

CHINESE ANNOUNCER

Ladies and gentlemen, this contest will be contested under Three Way Dance rules, and it will be for the HI-YAH Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, from Honolulu, HI, he has weighed in tonight at two hundred and ninety pounds...The "Samoan Tsunami"...FAQU!

 

Faqu gets to the ring and raises one arm up high, but gets quite the response. A smirk comes across the face of the Samoan sensation, as he's pleased with the fact that his hard work appears to be earning him respect worldwide.

 

COLE

It was one week ago that Zack Malibu put the HI-YAH Championship on the line against Faqu, and the big man was certainly holding his own against Zack, until the interference of Biff Atlas and Flex Phillips ruined the contest!

 

CABOOSE

Let's not forget that NRG were simply decoys for the real party crashers, as the trio of Scotty Static, Johnny Jax and Jamie O'Hara sent them out there so that they didn't break their promise to Zack Malibu!

 

COACH

Where's your proof, Beretta?

 

CABOOSE

Proof? Oh I don't have any proof, Coach, it's purely circumstantial. However, everything turned out alright when your boys got a surprise of their own!

 

COACH

Yeah, probably just a few of those Japanese HI-YAH exploding barbed wire fishtank scrappers that Malibu fell in with during his last tour. We're in CHINA now baby...the home of Chinese food...

 

COLE

Except here they just call it "food".

 

COACH

Whatever...bottom line is, Zack's got double trouble tonight, and no one's gonna save his ass after the fact!

 

"I'm A Hustla" by the criminally minded Cassidy is heard next, as the babyfaced bad boy from Birmingham strolls out, bobbing his head with a thuggish grin on his face.

 

CHINESE ANNOUNCER

Next, hailing from Birmingham, England. He weighs in tonight at one hundred and seventy pounds, JAMIE O'HARA!

 

COACH

C'mon J, you gonna be the man tonight!

 

O'Hara thug-walks his way to the ring, even leaning over the railing and getting in the face of several fans, who don't seem pleased with his debut in their country.

 

COLE

He's got guts, I'll give him that. I haven't seen Jamie O'Hara back down from anybody, but that's a quality that just fuels his arrogance.

 

The brash youngster rolls into the ring, blowing past Faqu as if he's a nobody, and climbs up on the ropes, throwing his arms out like WHAT?, then backflips down to the canvas, and tosses off his visor before removing his bling bling.

 

"Getting Away With Murder" is the last song to play, and it's that of the newly dubbed "Modern Day Warrior", the most recognizable face in the OAOAST.

 

CHINESE ANNOUNCER

Now introducing the final participant, the defending HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion...from Providence, Rhode Island, USA, he weighs in tonight at two hundred pounds precisely...he is the Modern Day Warrior...ZACK MALIBU!

 

CABOOSE

Listen to these fans, they love them some Malibu!

 

Zack powerwalks to the ring, slapping some hands on the way while remaining focused on the task at hand...having to overcome two of the OAOAST's brightest rising stars. He slingshots himself over the ropes and poses for the crowd for a moment, then unstraps the championship from around his waist and holds it up for the crowd to see, as the house lights are brought up for the contest to begin.

 

COLE

This has all the makings of a classic, and what a match to give the great fans of China as we pass through on the OAOAST World Tour.

 

The bell sounds, and the intimidating Samoan walks slowly of of his corner, keeping his eye mainly on O'Hara, while Zack surveys both challengers. All three men come to a meeting point in the center of the ring, and it's O'Hara who breaks the silence, shoving Zack away and then daring Faqu to lock up with him!

 

CABOOSE

Well, this kid's got balls. He's an IDIOT, but he's got balls!

 

Zack moves for O'Hara, but Faqu stops Zack, and then waves O'Hara on, offering a lockup. They tie up, and the big man easily shoves the lanky cruiserweight down to the canvas, having called his bluff. O'Hara gets up and charges Faqu, diving for the legs this time, but Faqu brings his arm down across O'Hara's back, nailing him with forearms before pulling him up to a standing position and cracking him across his wifebeater covered chest with a hard chop! O'Hara reels, but falls victim to another chop, causing just as loud of a smack as before...and this angers the youngster, so he delivers a chop to the chest of Faqu!

 

COACH

Ooooh J, I don't know if you wanna do this, man!

 

Faqu snickers, and chops again, dropping O'Hara to one knee. Still, the youngster comes right back up and delivers a hard chop to Faqu's chest. Before the big man can react to it, O'Hara then delivers a hard slap across his face before backing up a step, and calling Faqu out! The big man walks forward and stares down at the smaller O'Hara, who looks right up into the eyes of his rival...and smacks him AGAIN across the face! That's all Faqu can take, but as he goes after Jamie, O'Hara drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring, while Zack takes advantage of the situation and attacks from behind, locking Faqu in a rear waistlock. The big man elbows out, then spins around with one of his own, and lifts Zack up, taking him to the mat with a waistlock takedown. He goes for a side headlock, but Malibu slips free, and strikes the big man when he turns around with a hard chop to the chest, and then a European uppercut! Malibu then doubles Faqu over with a kick and tries for a suplex, but Faqu keeps his weight shifted so that Malibu has a tough time getting him off his feet! O'Hara comes back into the fold now and whacks Faqu across the back with a forearm, and then joins Zack in trying to get him over...and they do it successfully, carrying him up and over with a double team suplex!

 

COLE

That's some unlikely teamwork for you!

 

Both men get up, and now O'Hara slaps Malibu across the face, then takes the stunned prep by the arm and shoots him to the ropes! Malibu holds up, so O'Hara crashes to the mat as he tries for a front dropkick, and when he sits up Malibu runs forward and blasts him with a basement dropkick, knocking him senseless! Malibu then takes Jamie by the legs and catapults him over the ropes...but Jamie SKINS THE CAT~! back in...RIGHT INTO A BACK SUPLEX...NO! O'Hara floats over, but then finds himself trapped in a rear waistlock by Faqu, who lifts him up...and then throws him through the air, into a rana on Zack!

 

CABOOSE

Faqu just used his opponent as a weapon to take his other opponent out! That's one heck of a strategy!

 

O'Hara gets up, and Faqu charges with a clothesline, but the youngster ducks under it and hits the ropes, sliding through Faqu's legs rather than leapfrog him, and then yanks his legs out from under him, and follows up with a jumping elbowdrop to the back of the neck! Jamie then puts the boots (or in this case, sneakers) to Faqu before bringing him to his feet and striking him with some quick forearms to the face. O'Hara sends him to the ropes, but Faqu counters, and when O'Hara gets caught with a powerslam on the rebound, he counters in mid-move and carries Faqu over with a deep arm drag! He gets up and sees Malibu coming from the side, so he spins and delivers a back kick to keel Zack over, then takes his head and tries for a neckbreaker, only to see Faqu storming towards them. Still holding Zack's head, Jamie springs off the canvas, scissoring his legs around Faqu's head...but the big man shows off his power advantage yet again by powerbombing O'Hara down, and simultaneously causing him to snap Zack's neck with a neckbreaker!

 

COLE

Double impact on that one, as the chain reaction of the powerbomb also caused O'Hara to bring Zack down with him!

 

Faqu keeps hold of O'Hara's legs, and rolls over, trapping the youngster in a Boston Crab! Jamie screams in pain as Faqu pulls back on the legs, bending the scrawny star in half with the hold, as Malibu rolls off holding his neck. O'Hara tries to wriggle his small frame free, and stretches for the ropes, but Faqu pulls back some more, putting the pressure on the small of the back. Malibu, still shaken from the neckbreaker, gets up, and delivers a hard roundhouse kick between the shoulder blades of the big Samoan...but he doesn't budge! Zack delivers another kick, and this one causes Faqu to release the Boston Crab and stand up to face off with Zack! O'Hara rolls off to the side, and Zack fires off another kick, this time to the leg...but it gets caught, and Faqu counters with a Dragon screw! He pulls Zack's legs up and tries to roll Zack into a submission, but Malibu kicks off, sending the big man onto his back...and O'Hara soars in with a springboard legdrop, timing it perfectly to connect with the Samoan Tsunami!

 

COACH

Atta boy, J! They never saw you comin'!

 

O'Hara gets up and throws his arm down, taunting Faqu rather than go for the pin...and then gets spun into a lockup by Zack! He pushes Malibu to the ropes and then sends him off, leapfrogging Zack on his rebound and then hiptossing him on the second! Malibu gets up, and O'Hara charges, springing up and trying for a monkey flip, but Zack shoves him back down! O'Hara charges again, and this time Zack ducks, elevating Jamie up and over...but he lands on the apron! Malibu turns around, but O'Hara takes his head and snaps it over the top rope when he jumps to the floor, and Zack spins around in a daze...right into an STO by Faqu! He covers Zack with a leg hooked, as the referee makes the count...

 

ONE!

 

TW-NO!

 

Faqu pulls Zack up off the canvas and shoots him to the ropes, pressing him up in the air and then throwing him down to the canvas. As Zack reels from the slam, Faqu turns his attention to O'Hara, but once again the youngster goes airborne, springboarding onto Faqu's shoulders and snapping the big man over with a huracanrana! Faqu scrambles for the corner, but O'Hara runs in and hops up on the second rope, and starts wailing on Faqu with lefts and rights, then hops down, drags him out of the corner...and sends him headfirst into it! He takes Faqu by the head and then hops up on the ropes, then kicks off for a Tornado DDT...but Faqu easily pushes O'Hara off...RIGHT INTO A RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX FROM A RECOVERED MALIBU! O'Hara rolls out to the floor under the bottom rope, and when Zack gets up he catches a charging Faqu with a drop toehold, then quickly applies a stepover armbar, yanking back on the right arm of the powerful Samoan!

 

COLE

It's a lot of back and forth, a lot of tradeoffs. Not one man has gotten a decisive advantage yet, but the diversity of style in there...the power of Faqu, the speed and aerial ability of O'Hara, and the well-rounded style of Zack Malibu, has produced some great action in the last few minutes!

 

COACH

Let's not forget that my man J was all up in that raw meat eater's grill. No fear where we come from!

 

CABOOSE

We!? You're from Kansas, and he's from England.

 

COACH

But we both came from the streets!

 

CABOOSE

Coach, please. You're the whitest black man I know.

 

Malibu keeps a hold of the wrist, and uses his free hand to pull Faqu up by the back of the neck, then wrench the arm again. Faqu paces himself, then counters into an arm wrench of his own, but Malibu swings around and breaks that with a well placed forearm shot across the cheekbone! Zack then hits the ropes and hits a hard larait that staggers, but doesn't drop the big man, so he hits the ropes again! As he bounces off, he's tripped up and yanked to the floor by O'Hara, who starts pummeling him with blows over the back. Faqu regains his composure and sees his two foes out on the floor, so he moves in for the kill, racing for the ropes and jumping OVER them, clearing them with a no hands plancha that sends him crashing down onto both O'Hara and Malibu!

 

COLE

The big man flies again, with the grace of a cruiserweight!

 

COACH

Oh now he done did it, cramping my man J's style!

 

The Chinese crowd pick up on the efforts of the big man, chanting "FAQU" loudly as he gets up from the dive. He pulls Zack up and sends him across ringside, crashing into the barrier, while O'Hara gets picked up and pressed over his head, then tossed into the ring between the middle of the ropes, landing flat on his face! The burly Samoan then climbs up on the apron and steps back into the ring, and delivers a hard running soccer kick to O'Hara as he pushes up on all fours, sending him rolling across the canvas! O'Hara gets led up to his feet again and sent into the corner, crashing hard before Faqu goes in motion, charging towards the corner...AND O'HARA JUMPS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND! Faqu crashes hard sternum first, and bounces back, right into a reverse DDT from O'Hara! Jamie covers, hoping it's enough to keep the big man down!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

NO!

 

Faqu easily pushes Jamie up off of him, but as he comes to his feet, he's rocked with a pair of European uppercuts, then is held by the head as O'Hara kicks him hard in the stomach, and tucks his head under Faqu's chin, jumping downward and smashing it into his cranium with a jawbreaker! Faqu is once again stumbling on his own two feet, so O'Hara hits the ropes, and connects with a jump spinning roundhouse, cracking the big man across his chest and dropping him to the canvas! He steps out to the apron, but before he can follow up, he's yanked to the floor by Malibu, who hits an inverted atomic drop, then throws O'Hara across the ringside area with a release overhead belly to belly suplex! Malibu then gets up on the apron, and it's he who springboards in, tucking his body and then pushing out as he crashes down on Faqu with a springboard frog splash! He hooks the leg, and now the champion is looking to eliminate one of his challengers!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

KICKOUT!

 

COLE

Once again the big man fights out of a pin attempt...

 

CABOOSE

He's got the endurance to last. He's just got to keep his focus, because he knows that he's the main target of both O'Hara and Malibu. Once he's out of there, it's a much more even playing field!

 

Malibu gets up, but as he does he's spun around and sent to the corner by O'Hara, who watches on as Malibu slams back first against the turnbuckles. Jamie then walks over and hoists Malibu up onto the top rope, sitting him there before climbing up on the ropes himself. He squeezes Malibu's cheeks in and mouths off to him a bit, then climbs up on the top rope and prepares for a rana...but Malibu slides an arm through his legs and pulls him up across his shoulders! The crowd comes alive once again as O'Hara tries to kick free, but Malibu is able to power up with Jamie across his shoulders...

 

...AND HE LEAPS OFF THE ROPES WITH THE HONOR ROLL~! Malibu rolls to his feet after driving O'Hara into the canvas...AND GETS PICKED UP ONTO FAQU'S SHOULDERS...DEATH VALLEY DRIVER ON MALIBU!

 

COACH

Damn! Two for one special!

 

CABOOSE

Malibu just could have had O'Hara eliminated there, until Faqu took him and drove his neck into the canvas!

 

Faqu covers Malibu, hoping to eliminate the champion first!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

FOOT ON THE ROPES~!

 

COACH

LAME!

 

Faqu drags Zack away from the ropes, and hooks the leg, pressing his weight down on Zack during this second attempt!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

KICKOUT!

 

COLE

He kicked out again!

 

Faqu gets up, and seeing that Malibu is still fighting off defeat, moves towards O'Hara, diving onto him and pulling a leg back, figuring the Honor Roll has him primed for elimination.

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

KICKOUT!

 

COLE

And Jamie O'Hara kicks out as well!

 

CABOOSE

Welcome to the home of the stubborn athlete!

 

COACH

The NFL?

 

CABOOSE

Har.

 

Faqu drags O'Hara up off the canvas, and lifts him up onto his shoulder before swinging him back down, gut-first, across his knee! O'Hara coughs and gags after having the wind knocked out of him, and Faqu shoves him backwards into the corner, then tears his 'beater off his body, exposing his skin for a rather STIFF~! chop! And a second! And a third! And a fourth!

 

CABOOSE

He's going to cave his chest in!

 

O'Hara slumps down, but Faqu grabs him by the head and stands him right back up, then delivers some playful slaps, taunting O'Hara's courage from earlier, then delivers a headbutt that stuns him! With O'Hara prone against the turnbuckles, Faqu backs up and then charges in...but Jamie gets a boot up and catches him in the face, knocking him away! Faqu teeters back, but then charges in again...and O'Hara kips up and drives BOTH feet into his face, staggering the big man once again...AND HE TURNS RIGHT INTO A SCHOOL'S OUT FROM OUT OF NOWHERE~!

 

COLE

Malibu just got to his feet, but that was great pres...WAITAMINUTE!

 

O'Hara races out of the corner, catching the Samoan Tsunami as he falls back, and cradles him with a schoolboy...HOLDING THE TIGHTS FOR LEVERAGE!

 

COLE

REF! HEY REF!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

THREE!

 

*DING* *DING* *DING*

 

CABOOSE

Faqu just got taken out the easy way!

 

COACH

The easy way or the hard way, as long as he's out that's all that matters!

 

The crowd boo's, not happy with O'Hara's tactic. The cocky Brit only has minimal time to celebrate though, as Malibu spins him around and starts rocking him with right hands before sending him to the ropes...reversal, and O'Hara catches Zack with a rana...but Zack rolls through...and O'Hara rolls through that...and delivers a hard stomp to the midsection! Zack howls in pain, and O'Hara goes "WHAT?!" to his fallen foe. Meanwhile, Faqu is on his way up the aisle, holding his jaw, but looking back at Jamie O'Hara for screwing him out of the HI-YAH Title for the second week in a row.

 

COLE

That is not a happy man right there, and I can't blame him. For as hard as he's worked, it's been a rough past few weeks for Faqu.

 

COACH

Yeah yeah, we all have our days, now let's keep our attention where it belongs...on my man SupaJay as he becomes the HI-YAH Heavyweight Champion!

 

With Malibu down, O'Hara sits atop him and throws some punches from the mount, then pulls Zack up and snapmares him over before delivering a dropkick to the back of the neck. He then stands over Zack, kicks his leg out and swings it back, and somersaults, delivering a legdrop upon landing to Zack Malibu! O'Hara covers, and waits for the ref's hand to hit the mat three times...

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

TH-NO!

 

...but it doesn't! He stays on offense, bringing Zack up and hooking him for a suplex, but before he can be carried over, Malibu counters with a small package, cradling O'Hara for the pin!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

NO! O'HARA MANAGES TO ROLL ZACK INTO A PIN!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

KICKOUT!

 

COLE

So close...for BOTH of them!

 

Both men get up, and O'Hara tries for a spin kick...but Zack ducks it, and hooks his waist...GERMAN SUPLEX! Malibu holds on, pulling O'Hara up again...SECOND GERMAN! Another roll through, and Malibu lifts for a THIRD GERMAN...but O'Hara flips over his back, then onto his shoulders...INVERTED HURACANRANA ON ZACK MALIBU~!

 

COACH

HE GOT HIM! OH YEAH C'MON JAY-OH!

 

O'Hara rolls Malibu over, as the crowd not-so-anxiously awaits to see if this is it for the HI-YAH Champion!

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

THRE-NO! NO! KICKOUT!

 

COACH

DAMMIT!

 

CABOOSE

Zack got caught off guard, but not enough to lose his will to win!

 

COLE

Or his HI-YAH Heavyweight Title! Could you imagine what would happen if Jamie O'Hara won that belt!?

 

COACH

Hey! Nothin' wrong with the J-Man earning some bling bling finally!

 

CABOOSE

Yeah, but he'd probably do something stupid...like make the center plate spin.

 

COACH

...

 

O'Hara yanks Zack off the canvas, and fires off two chops to the chest of the popular prep, then jumps up on his shoulders for another rana...but Zack shoves him backwards off his shoulders and down to his feet...and catches him as he comes forward with an inverted lungblower!

 

COLE

Oooouch! He just drove both knees into the chest of O'Hara!

 

CABOOSE

What chest!?

 

O'Hara bounces back, folding his arms over his chest in pain, and as he struggles to his feet, Malibu bounces off the ropes and springs off the canvas, exposing his knee and driving it into O'Hara's head with his patented ZACK ATTACK~! O'Hara topples to the canvas, and Malibu hooks a leg, holding him down for what he hopes to be the end of the contest.

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

THREE!

 

*DING* *DING* *DING*

 

CABOOSE

Great match! Zack Malibu deserved that victory!

 

COLE

He certainly...now wait a second, come ON!

 

No sooner has the bell been rung than Scotty Static and Johnny Jax have hit the ring, attacking Zack from behind as he pulls himself off his defeated foe!

 

COLE

Dammit, when will they stop? They wanted respect, they GOT respect, but they're still making life miserable for Malibu!

 

COACH

Sometimes it's not just about respect, Mikey Cole! When you're making a name for yourself, you might find yourself needin' to do it at the expense of others!

 

Jax holds Malibu back while Scotty peppers him with jabs, then takes him by the head so that Jax can hit the ropes and flatten Malibu with a YAKUZA KICK~! Together, the GPX put the boots to Zack, as the crowd boos loudly, until everyone is taken by surprise by a BLACKOUT~!

 

COLE

What...not again!

 

CABOOSE

We saw this last week and we know what happened!

 

The crowd murmurs and buzzes, waiting to see what could take place once the lights come back on. As the spotlights come back, the crowd begins cheering wildly, as the three masked individuals from last week have made their return, still brandishing their weaponry!

 

COLE

It's the same trio from last week!

 

COACH

How did they get to China!?!

 

CABOOSE

The same way you did.

 

COACH

That lyin' bastard, he said I was his first!

 

CABOOSE

Coach, I don't EVEN wanna know.

 

The GPX and O'Hara are at a standoff with the three men, and dare them to put down their weapons. The mystery men do not back down, and all of them slowly drop their arms, releasing their chain, kendo stick, and barbed wire bat respectively. After dropping the weapons, they come forward, and now the GPX and O'Hara have gotten what they ask for! Everything is at a standstill until the GPX and O'Hara strike...and now there's a pier six brawl in the ring!

 

COLE

The GPX...O'Hara...all hell has broken loose!

 

The masked men fight back, and fight strong, quickly dispatching of both Static and Jax! As they regroup on the floor, O'Hara soon realizes he's the only one in the ring...and he starts daring them to come at him three on one, not backing down! The three men approach, ready to take care of the Birmingham Bad Boy...and Malibu has now gotten up, and throws him to the wolves! Together, the three men hammer O'Hara down, until one of them seperates the other two from the youngster, and sets him up in a standing headscissor...then jumps over his back, holding onto Jamie's waist and pulling him over with the flip, into a piledriver!

 

CABOOSE

HOLY MOTHER!

 

COLE

A Canadian Destroyer is what it's called in some parts of the world, but whatever you wanna call that version of it...it just spiked Jamie O'Hara's head into the canvas!

 

O'Hara rolls out of the ring clutching his head, and he's quickly scooped up by Static and Jax, who are now wild-eyed with both anger and shock. Malibu walks to the ropes, eyeing them as they back up the aisleway, and then looks over his shoulder at the three men flanking him, and just smiles back at the GPX.

 

COLE

We didn't know for sure last week, but it would seem...that Zack Malibu...Zack Malibu has something to do with the appearances of these men!

 

COACH

Well DUH.

 

CABOOSE

But who are they? OAOAST? HI-YAH? What type of game is Zack playing with the GPX and Jamie O'Hara?

 

OAOAST personnel swarm the aisleway, heading towards the ring to grab the intruders, but Malibu tells them all to stay back. He turns to the trio and nods, and the man standing center, the one clutching the barbed wire bat, nods back. Within seconds, the trio exits the far side of the ring, and hops the aisleway, exiting through the sea of fans just as they did one week ago.

 

COACH

Go after them! Go!

 

COLE

There's no reason. Apparently Malibu has given his word they're not a threat to...

 

COACH

A threat to WHO? They just bounced Jamie's head off the mat like a superball!

 

Malibu hops out of the ring, and is handed his HI-YAH Championship, which he drapes over his shoulder. As he walks up the aisle, every face he looks at is confused, as everyone just wants to know one thing...

 

...what is Zack Malibu up to?

[Zack Malibu 0]

The match is done. I'm going to try and get a promo done for the show as well, but if it's not up by showtime, I can use it next week.

[Tony149 0]

You sent your stuff to Hoff, right? Or did you post your stuff here out of habit like I did? They die hard, huh?

[Zack Malibu 0]

Already sent the match onto him, Mr. T .
