Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2006 There's no need for anticipation tonight, as we dive right into the action as soon as the show is set to start! Already in the ring are Zack Malibu and Todd Cortez, looking as if they've been brawling for a while, and it's Malibu who is on the receiving end of the punishment, as Cortez has him slouched in the corner and is driving his foot into Zack's throat! COLE Fans, we're live, and we are losing control already! Zack Malibu and Todd Cortez, who have each been throwing out challenges to the other since the night of War Games when Cortez injured Leon Rodez's neck, cannot be seperated! COACH Remember when Anglesault took the reins back, Cole. He said that as soon as you set foot inside an OAOAST arena, you are fair game, and these two are both out for blood! Cortez stomps away at Malibu, then drags him up out of the corner, but Zack quickly drops and shoots for the legs, taking Cortez down to the canvas and getting the crowd worked up! Now that their hero is on the offense, the crowd comes alive, watching as Malibu tries to keep Cortez on the canvas and open him up with elbows! COLE Just like with anything we've seen in the past, this is not your typical wrestling feud. This has been a war raging for months not only over respect, but over actions towards a man's family, and now because his best friend is in a hospital bed recovering from a broken neck! Malibu fires elbows off, then starts clawing at the face of the "Urban Legend", trying to dig his fingers into his eye sockets! Cortez tries to push Malibu off of him, but can't...and now the crowd TRULY comes alive, as ANGLESAULT HIMSELF charges down to the ring and yanks Malibu off of Todd Cortez! COLE WHOA! The boss man is here, and he's taking charge! Malibu, incensed at the interference, even from a friend like AS, goes for Cortez again, until the company owner shoves him back! Anglesault and Zack have a tense moment, but Anglesault reassures him to relax, then turns just as Cortez is getting up, and shoves him away before he can get to Zack! COACH This guy can sit behind a desk, or send Watts or whoever out here to take care of this, but instead he's the one trying to keep the peace? That's how you know we got an owner who cares. COLE You said it. COACH Now if he shows it when it comes time for the Christmas bonus, I'll be straight. Anglesault, now with the microphone, stands center ring, while the two wrestlers burn holes in one another with their stares. ANGLESAULT You guys want to kill each other. I know that neither of you want nothing more, and to me, personally, that's fine. Thinking that's an OK for the brawl to continue, Zack and Todd move towards one another, until AS steps back in the middle of them. ANGLESAULT GET BACK! Zack, you too, get back! You know damn well I wouldn't be out here if I didn't have a reason. See, I know that there are two ways for this thing to end. Either Zack goes down in a blaze of glory while searching for justice and redemption, OR, and this one is my favorite, he unleashes a side of him that very few people have had to deal with, something even worse than what you've experience so far, Cortez, and once that happens we'll never hear from you or the rest of you damn Wildcards again! The crowd roars, as Cortez sneers at Anglesault's comment. ANGLESAULT However, THIS is not the time for that. Neither is November Reign, when the two of you meet one on one! COLE WHOA! COACH How's THAT for an official announcement? ANGLESAULT I know how you feel, Zack. I know what you've been through, and you know beyond a shadow of a doubt there's no one in this company with more respect for you than me. YOU, Cortez, I sure as hell don't respect you, but I don't let the fact that you run with the garbage like Bruce Blank take away from the fact that you are a hell of an athlete. You've got that sadistic streak burning inside of you, and you take it out on people like Leon Rodez. You've got one of my best workers laid up with a snapped neck, you've made this mans life a living hell, when you could have taken the world by the balls with your God given talent, but NO, you took the easy road. Well let me tell the two of you something. I've given a lot of leeway in recent months. The brawls, the street fights, even War Games, I made the final call on all of them because I KNOW that a standard match can't contain the hatred between the two sides...so that's why we're breaking from tradition at November Reign. It's not going to be a street fight, or a No Holds Barred match, or anything like that. It's gonna be the two of you, Zack Malibu and Todd Cortez one on one, with all rules and regulations applying! Now the crowd is booing, and Anglesault chuckles, seemingly expecting it. ANGLESAULT I knew that was coming, but hear me out. Because IF I made a match like that, what's it going to solve? I know that it's what The Wildcards want, since that's their enviroment, and I know it's what Zack would like so that legally he can do as he pleases to you, Cortez...and personally, after losing Leon for God knows how long, maybe forever even, I'm not ready to let another star of mine risk his career, his LIFE, because of you. So Zack, you have to bite the bullet for me on this one, trust me. You know that you're going to get what you want from these guys down the line, so I'm asking you...actually, I'm telling you, but I'm doing it face to face, man to man, that at November Reign I want the two of you to take that hatred, take this war, and give me a GOD DAMN MATCH OF THE YEAR BECAUSE...BECAUSE IF YOU DO...then ONE of you, whichever one is the better man that night, is going on to fight in the main event for the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE! COLE WHOA! COACH YO~! Now Zack and Cortez seem a bit more receptive to this. ANGLESAULT Zack, you're the name synonymous with this company. You're the guy who made ME swallow my pride, even just a bit, and admit that I respected you, and you were a better man than me. Cortez, for all you've done, I know about you. I know what you can do. You've got that killer instinct, and quite frankly, you've crossed the line and there's no coming back from it...but I'm not running the risk of putting more of my stars on the shelf. Having Blank give up on the SWF to focus on the OAOAST...he might be doing it as part of his war, but now he's made things between my company and you're old company a little...personal. See, your war isn't the only war going on here...so essentially Todd, I'm using you. I'm using your talent to MY advantage, to show your old employer what they missed out on when they cut you loose...and I'm putting you against a guy who is at his absolute best when his back is against the wall and he's got something to fight for. I am turning you loose on each other not just for your own benefits, but for mine...and that's why whoever is still standing when the bell rings is getting a shot at that belt, because Zack deserves another chance to be on top of this company, and Cortez, if you can prove me wrong, then I will admit that as much as I'd rather see you rot, that you'd deserve the chance as well. And after November Reign, unless you guys cave in and can't wait, you can get back to brawling and bleeding and cutting and smashing and whatever you want to do...but for now...JUST FOR NOW, you work for me, and you're going to do what I want. Now get out of the ring, we've got a show to get on with. With that, Anglesault motions for Cortez to leave first. The "Urban Legend" nods cockily, then ducks out, pointing and taunting Zack Malibu, who stands firm and sucks it up. Anglesault starts to leave but pauses and looks back at Malibu, who keeps eyeing him. Anglesault offers a smirk to his friend, but Malibu, despite the shot at becoming a participant in the Triple Cage match, doesn't look happy. COLE What a speech by the company owner! Putting a cease fire on the Malibu/Wildcards war until after Novemeber Reign so that he can stick it to the SWF! COACH Man, things are heating up in the wrestling world, and of course, we're at the center of the controversy! COLE Isn't it always that way though? Fans, we'll be back with our previously scheduled HeldDOWN~! right after this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
