Tony149 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) "Quiet" by the Smashing Pumpkins hits and it's anything but as Black T emerge through the cloud of black smoke to a loud roar. BUFFER The following contest, semi-final action from the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference in the 2007 Anderson Cup, and it is scheduled for one fall with a 15-minute time limit. Introducing first...representing Great Britain and the United States of America, the 4th ranked team in the MWC Conference and former three-time OAOAST World tag team champions...DAN BLACK and TONY BRANNIGAN... BLACK TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! SCHIAVONE Lots of rumors circulating throughout the wrestling world pertaining to the future of Black T. Many experts believing the 2007 Anderson Cup could be their last hurrah if they're unsuccessful yet again. In case you've forgotten, Black T lost to the GPX in the finals of the first ever Anderson Cup 3 years ago, then were stunned in the second round of last year's Cup by the Lone Star Gunslingers. 2007 was the first time they were ranked lower than #1, seeded 4th in the tournament. They've been hampered in recent years by injuries and outside interests. Credited as the team who turned the OAOAST tag division around, the Anderson Cup is the only title missing from their résumé. VENTURA Geez, Schiavone, you make it sound like Black T are as injury prone as the Heavenly Rockers. That isn't the case at all and you know it. They're not in a Peyton Manning situation. They already have multi-reigns as tag champions to be considered the greatest of all time, and make no mistake about it, they are the greatest tag team in OAOAST history. They've done more for tag team wrestling than any other team here or elsewhere. If it weren't for the fact they spent the last year saving the OAOAST from falling into enemy hands, they'd probably still be World tag team champions. As customary, Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein" plays the Sooner Bruisers to the ring. BUFFER Their opponents, also former professional wrestling tag team champions of the world, currently the reigning and defending MWC Champions, the only #1 ranked team remaining in the Anderson Cup...from the state of Oklahoma, total combine weight 525 pounds, BIG FRANK and UBER BRUISER... THE SOONER BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUISERS!! SCHIAVONE Speaking of the World tag team championship, here are the men who ended Black T's third title reign at World Without End last October. Black T have gone on record as saying it was the toughest match they've ever been involved in. VENTURA I think the Heavenly Rockers would agree. SCHIAVONE And that rivarly began with the Anderson Cup. The Heavenly Rockers defeating the Sooner Bruisers in last year's finals, which ended with the Bruisers crashing Synth and Logan's post-match celebration and injuring their manager, now the wife of Logan Mann, Holly-Wood. VENTURA That went a bit too far, but Holly gave Big Frank mixed signals. SCHIAVONE Now stop it. There's no need to go there. * DINGDINGDING * Officially underway, the match begins with Dan Black and Uber engaging in the ever popular collar-and-elbow tie-up. Black holds his own until the Psycho Gremlin decides to put his amatuer background to use, taking the Ice Heart to the mat and riding him like some punk kid. Dan escapes and CHOPS UBER IN THE FOREHEAD, rattling him with a series of forearm and knee strikes to the face. But the crazed Sooner Bruiser battles back, headbutting Black in stomach before tossing him outside. Any thought Big Frank has about capitalizing on the situation is put to rest when Tony Brannigan rushes over to fend off an attack. Ordered back to his corner Tony can only watch as Uber suplexes...No, Black floats over and delivers the CHIMERA SUPLEX SEQUENCE! SCHIAVONE Dragon, German and Tiger suplexes all in succession! Incredible! ONE... TWO... NO!! Big Frank kicks Dan's legs out from under him. Unappreciative of the gesture, Black cheapshots Frank, but then walks into a snap powerslam from Uber! ONE... TWO... Tony Brannigan gives the Sooner Bruisers a taste of their own medicine, breaking up the pin. VENTURA Black T not afraid to bend the rules here and there, and neither are the Sooner Bruisers. Speaking of the aforementioned, they're the first to make a tag. But rather than isolate Black, Big Frank encourages him to tag Tony, the powerhouse of the team. Ask and you shall receive. Butting heads and nose to nose, both men exchange words and bodybuilding poses. Then it's on. Frank hits the ropes and collides with Tony, but it doesn't even faze the former World Champion. So Bruiser challenges Brannigan to try and knock him off his feet, and like Tony, Frank stands his ground. VENTURA (laughs) You wanna talk about an irresistible force vs. the immovable object, then look no further, we're witnessing it right now live on HeldDOWN~! Determined to accomplish his objective, the Man of Tomorrow hits the ropes again, as does Tony. Needless to say, the pace quickens as both competitors CRISS-CROSS. SCHIAVONE Blind tag made on the part of Black T. VENTURA And it looks like they're gonna try to sucker Big Frank. Proving why he's considered to be the best color commentator in the history of our great sport, Jesse's analysis is spot on. The Superfreak ducks a Tony Brannigan leapfrog and gets caught looking up for the ropes with a Dan Black SUPERKICK! ONE... TWO... NO!! SCHIAVONE You think Dan took exception to Frank asking for Tony? It looked to me like he put a little extra something in that kick. The Ice Heart stays on the attack, stomping Big Frank upside the head as he tries to crawl away. Snap suplex and a beauty into a lateral press. ONE... TWO... KICKOUT, AND WITH AUTHORITY! VENTURA Notice how quickly Dan Black goes for the cover. We've seen alot of that in the Anderson Cup. The quicker the victory, the better. Not only does it save wear and tear on your body, it also doesn't allow the time limit to become the third opponent in the ring like it did last week in the Beverly Hills Blonds-D*LUX match. SCHIAVONE And what a match that was. The Blonds scoring the winning pinfall, in dubious fashion mind you, with 1 second remaining in the time limit. We'll see them next week in one of our two Conference Final bouts. VENTURA We might be playing the fued, Schiavone. A Black T win means they must face Tony Brannigan's cousin Theodore Moneymaker and Christian Wright in the MWC Finals. Wouldn't that be something? Tony's tagged in, and the Trans-Atlantic Wrecking Crew whip the Man of Tomorrow into the ropes, clotheslining him together. As Black exits, Tony covers. ONE... TWO... Again, Frank kicks out, but not with authority as it's a bit tougher doing so to a man Brannigan's size. Tony, however, doesn't have much trouble PRESSING the 275 pounder in the air, slamming him to the canvas and following up with a round of power forearms and the cover. ONE... TWO... KICKOUT! SCHIAVONE Black T sticking to their plan. They're going for pins at every opportunity, Jesse. VENTURA You gotta against a team like the Sooner Bruisers. Unlike most big men, the Bruisers can go 15 or 60. It don't matter to them. Brannigan maneuvers Frank to the corner and unloads with forearms and shoulder thrusts, then sends the Superfreak off towards the far corner, charging in and eating nothing but turnbuckle as the leader of the Freakozoids steps aside and hoists him on his shoulders, taking Tony over to his corner for the tag to the Psycho Gremlin, who flies off the top to complete the ELECTRIC CHAIR BULLDOG!! ONE... TWO... NO!! Black makes the save and gets into it with both Bruisers. 2 against 1, Dan's eventually overwhelmed and fired into the ropes...but he ducks a double Soonerline and hits both brothers with an STO! SCHIAVONE My goodness, Dan Black just took down both Bruisers! VENTURA 2 for the price of 1 and he didn't even have a coupon. With the Bruisers flat on their backs Tony is able to make the tag. Black steps in and kicks Big Frank out to the floor, leaving him and Uber alone in the ring. * CHOP * "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Forearm smash. * CHOP * "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Kick to midsection. * CHOP * "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Forearm...No, Uber ducks and plants Black on his head with a BACKDROP DRIVER! ONE... TWO... THR-- NO!! Incredibly, and quite arrogantly, the Psycho Gremlin lifts Dan's shoulders off the mat to naw on his forehead! BUFFER 5 minutes gone by. 5 minutes! VENTURA I don't understand that at all. For all we know Black would've kicked out, but you gotta go for win there. Black T are 1 of only 3 teams to have held the OAOAST tag team championship of the world on three separate occasions. They're not a team to be messed with. SCHIAVONE Right you are, Jesse Ventura. And yes, we know, you're always right. The Superfreak is tagged in and he slows the tempo, snapmaring Black over and into a neck vice, squeezing the body part with his 25" anacondas. Battered but not yet beaten, Black desperately tries to scratch and claw his way out of the paralyzing hold, and is met by an elbow square between the eyes for his trouble. He's scooped up and slammed mid-ring belly-to-belly style. ONE... TWO... KICKOUT! SCHIAVONE He may be known as the "Ice Heart", Jesse, but Dan Black is showing alot of it right now. VENTURA Absolutely. A normal man would've been put out of his misery long ago, but Dan Black is one of the finest conditioned wrestlers in the sport today. Black T's work out routine is a thing of legends. You'd think they're training for a championship boxing fight not a wrestling match Another tag is made and now the Sooner Bruisers have Dan Black isolated in their corner, but not for long. Uber lifts him up in a body vice and rams him upside down into the turnbuckles, setting him on the top afterwards...SUPER GUTWRENCH SUPLEX! ONE... TWO... Having finally regained his senses from the bulldog earlier, Tony Brannigan breaks up the pin to save his partner and the match. Uber goes on about his business, staggering Black with hard right hands, then shoots him off...but Dan reverses and nails the rebounding Psycho Gremlin off the near side with the SHINING BLACK! ONE... TWO... TH-- KICKOUT! Unable to pick up the pin Black sets his sights on making the tag, but Big Frank runs in and clobbers Tony. As he's restrained by the referee, the Sooner Bruisers drag Dan back to their corner and swap places. The moment Earl Hebner questions the tag Frank shoots him a death stare and ends all that. Fresh off the illegal switch, the Man of Tomorrow measures an elbow to the lower back and places Black in the STF. VENTURA Come on, Schiavone, I bet your foaming at the mouth to go on a rant. SCHIAVONE I'm all about the rules, Jesse, but I don't blame the referee for not pressing the issue. Tony stomps his foot on the apron to encourage his partner and the fans follow suit, clapping in unison. Well-placed back elbows have little effect on the big-headed and hard-headed Superfreak, who gets up to drop another elbow...but Dan moves and brings the Man of Tomorrow to the mat in a Fujiwara armbar! SCHIAVONE We may have a submission right here! Not if Uber can stop it. But Dan spots the Psycho Gremlin charging in and takes him down in the HEART OF ICE CROSSFACE!! Remarkably, Uber powers up with Dan on his back...until Tony steps in and clotheslines the former All-American, allowing Black to wrap him in a cruficix, but a count isn't made since Uber is not the legal man. It does, however, lead to Black tagging out and Tony Brannigan in! "YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Clotheslines all around. Uber then sent in, up and over. Just how bad does Tony want to win? He actually comes off the top with a MISSLE DROPKICK! ONE... TWO... NO!! Save by the Gremlin, who is absolutely leveled by Dan Black. The Ice Heart thrusting the forearms into the side of the head. Then it's Big Frank who lays the hammer down, blindsiding Dan with a Soonerline that knocks him out to the floor. BUFFER 10 minutes gone by. There are 5 minutes remaining in the time limit. 5 minutes! SCHIAVONE 2 men in, 2 men out. 5 minutes to go. It's gut-check time for both teams. After putting the badmouth to Dan, Frank shifts his focus back to Tony who catches him with a kick to the midsection and the ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT PILE... NO, Big Frank counters, as does Tony, slipping over the top to CLOTHESLINE THE REFEREE!! VENTURA Oh, Brannigan accidently clotheslined the referee. Big Frank getting out of the way just in the nick of time. TONY :o LOW BLOW stops Brannigan in his tracks. In addition to the referee being down and out, so are Dan and Uber outside. With no authority figure present Big Frank wallops Tony with a STEEL CHAIR! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Big Frank swipes his arms to singal the end is near. He facelocks Tony for the 69 DRIVER but spends most of his time taunting the hecklers ringside.... :huh: :huh: :huh: ...apparently causing a commotion in the stands, which we soon learn is because LOGAN USHER MANN is in the building! VENTURA What?! He's got no business being here! SCHIAVONE My, how quickly you change. With the aid of a CANE, Logan hops over the guardrail and sneaks up behind Big Frank...BREAKING THE CANE ACROSS HIS BACK!! :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: Unaware of what happened, Dan Black casually climbs onto the apron only to be yanked down by Uber. The Psycho Gremlin leaning him against the ringpost for a headbutt...but Black moves and Uber posts himself! "THREE-BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" The fans know what's next. 3-B, THE BLACK BODY BAG!!! Earl Hebner crawls over as Dan Black and Tony Brannigan, the Trans-Atlantic Wrecking Crew known as Black T, both cover Big Frank! ONE... TWO... THREE!!! * DING * DING * DING * BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, the winners of the match, advancing onto the MWC Conference Finals... BLLLLAAAAAAACK TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! Dan and Tony head off backstage constantly refer to the #2, being the number of victories they need to capture the 2007 Anderson Cup. SCHIAVONE For the second time in 3 years Black T have reached the Conference Finals. Standing in their way next, the 3 seed in the MWC Conference, Tony Brannigan's own cousin Theodore Moneymaker and Christian Wright of the Enterprise. VENTURA They may be family, Schiavone, but I know for a fact Tony and Teddy aren't on the best of terms after the falling out they had following the World 6-man tag team title tournament awhile back. Black and Moneymaker blame each other for the trio's elimination. Tony stood behind his tag team partner and the rest, as they say, is history. Next week they'll settle their differences in the ring. Currently in the ring, Big Frank is still laid out. Likewise for Uber outside. SCHIAVONE As you can see, fans, there are many issues in the OAOAST to be resolved. Next week we hope to settle two of them in the Conference Finals of the Anderson Cup, as well as the situation between the Sooner Bruisers and the Heavenly Rockers. Right now we toss it back to Michael Cole and The Coach. Edited February 7, 2007 by Tony149 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
