King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2008 [IMG=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v82/papacita/OAOAST/syndicatedannouncers.jpg] SCHIAVONE The Anderson Cup 2008 continues on in mere moments, as The Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew and The Love Doctors bring a close to the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference. So far, all three matches have gone to seeding, but will this one? Tony Schiavone alongside Jesse Ventura as always... Jesse, a tough one to call tonight. VENTURA Every match with you is a tough one to call, Schiavone! Ha ha! SCHIAVONE Indeed. It was one year ago, Rico and Lucius burst onto the scene in the tag team division by defeating the then Anderson Cup champions The Heavenly Rockers at this same stage. An impressive half-year there after saw them earn a number three seeding in this year's competition. But the past few months have been rough times for The Homewrecking Crew, ever since August and their involvement in the Scramble Cage, Tag Team Title Unification Match. Losing that match as HI-YAH Tag Champions, then failing to defeat Chicks Over Dicks for the OAOAST unified Titles have been major setbacks in their career and many are predicting last year's biggest scalp takers are going to be the big scalp [i]taken[/i] this time around. VENTURA No doubt Tony, a potential upset in the offering. The Love Doctors are a dangerous team, in that a lack of consistency has ended up with them getting a low seeding, but on their day they're capable of defeating any team in the OAOAST. SCHIAVONE Former HI-YAH Tag Team Champions for over a year. VENTURA Well, that was a few years ago now, but sure, why not. SCHIAVONE .... Lets go to the ring! Right on cue, out swagger the Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew as the melodic sounds of "Easy Lover" begin to play. Rico confidently strokes his porn 'stache with a knowing nod of the head, as Lucius appears from behind him and yells out at the crowd. Clearly amped up, Lucius tries to instill the same passion into his swathe partner on their way to the ring. "Easy lover She'll get a hold on you believe it Like no other Before you know it you'll be on your knees" BUFFER This contest is a Quarter Final Match in the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference of the 2008 Anderson Cup and it is scheduled for one fall! Introducing, team number one. Total combined weight, four hundred and thirteen pounds... they are the number three seeds in the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference... RICO DE JANEIRO and "SWEET" LUCIUS SOUL... together, they are THE MARDI GRAS HHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMEEWRECKING CCRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWii!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" As Lucius jumps into the ring, Rico turns his attentions to a female fan in the audience and shows off his pecs in all their hairy, baby oil covered glory. His blown kiss is rejected by the fan as Lucius pulls him into the ring and tries to get his partner's head in the game. [COLOR=red]*WHIIIR!* *WHIIIR!*[/COLOR] "Doctor, doctor, give me the news I've got a bad case of lovin' you No pill's gonna cure my ill I've got a bad case of lovin' you" Rico settles down now as new objects of affection for the females arrive. The Love Doctors bounce onto the stage looking like they've just finished their shift for the night, until the white coats are seductively pulled off and thrown to the side. BUFFER And introducing the opponents. Hailing out of Windy City Hospital in Chicago, Illinois... at a total combined weight of four hundred and thirty six pounds. The number six seeds in the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference... DR. MAX ANDERSON and DR. MAX PIGLEY... THE LLLOOOOOOOOOVVEEEEEE DDOOOOOOOOOCCTTOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRSSSSSSS!!!! "YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!" The clean-cut docs get the Calgary crowd in their corner while Rico and Lucius watch on, unimpressed. VENTURA No surprise these people love the Docs. Health care is free up here, after all. SCHIAVONE The Love Doctors are loved worldwide. VENTURA Yeah, by women. And word on the street is that's only down to Windy City Hopsital's special 'discounts'. SCHIAVONE Unsubstanciated rumours. *DINGDINGDING!* Dr. Anderson starts the match out with "Sweet" Lucius Soul. A very determined looking Lucius Soul. The two men square up and words are exchanged, mainly from the fast talking Lucius, who tries to put an exclamation point on his words with a slap. Anderson ducks... and ducks a backhand slap... before catching an attempted boot! Left hopping on one foot, Lucius is much less arguementative now and pleads for forgiveness. Dr. Anderson smirks at the idea and instead spins Lucius around by the leg. He then throws a clothesline... but in mid-spin, Lucius suddenly drops and does the [i]splits[/i] and avoids the clothesline! VENTURA Woah! That's a new one on me! Pushing out of the splits, Lucius mouths off to Dr. Pigley while Anderson gets over his surprise and catching Rico coming into the ring with a hiptoss! Lucius sees his partner flying past him and understandably turns around to see what happened, walking into a hiptoss of his own! Out of the ring scramble both Mardi Gras'ers, as Dr. Anderson fires up the crowd. LUCIUS Fuck dat shit! SCHIAVONE Uh, Lucius... a little frustrated. VENTURA Good cover. Lucius and Rico meet up on the floor and try to regroup, but suddenly see Dr. Pigley diving towards them and take cover. However Pigley fakes out and dives down next to the bottom rope... ...and when Rico and Lucius look up, it's Dr. [i]Anderson[/i] diving at them, BARRELING THROUGH THEM WITH A TOPÉ CON HILO!! "YYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!" SCHIAVONE Dr. Anderson becoming the flying doctor on that one! VENTURA And The Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew have gotta get it together and fast! Once he's slapped a few hands, Dr. Anderson throws Lucius back into the ring for his partner. However, referee Mike Chioda is alert to who the legal man is and isn't, not allowing Pigley to stay in the ring. As he tries to get Pigley out, Anderson tries to get back in. But with the referee busy, it allows Rico to reach up and pull Anderson off the apron, causing him to faceplant into the ringside mats with a splat!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Rico quickly climbs back to the apron and acts innocent, while Anderson lays flat out on the floor. SCHIAVONE That helping hand from the floor went undetected by the referee and all of a sudden Anderson is in a bad way. Can The Love Doctors turn this match back around? We'll find out when we come back! [b]*COMMERCIAL*[/b] Back from the break and, sure enough, we rejoin the match with Dr. Anderson in the clutches of a rear chinlock courtesy of Rico de Janeiro. Dr. Pigley tries to get the crowd behind his partner as Rico wrenches away. VENTURA Rico's done a good job of shutting the Doc down during the break Schiavone. It's a methodical style that Rico favours but it's effective. Only 225, but he knows how to use his power to his advantage. Getting a sudden surge of energy, Dr. Anderson sits up and starts to max a move to his feet. Rico again shuts him down though, releasing the hold and clubbing him in the back. Another clubbing blow lands, followed with a double axehandle. Rico then hooks Anderson up, gutwrenching him and flipping him into a suplex! Leg hooked... 1... 2... No! Rico goes right back to the chinlock though, getting a nod of approval from his partner. SCHIAVONE Dr. Anderson simply hasn't recovered from that face-first meeting with the concrete before we went to commercial. But Rico and Lucius really haven't pressed home their advantage like I thought they would. VENTURA No, but they're dictacting the pace. Their pace. Rico strokes his 'stache while continuing to clamp away on the hold. Again Anderson draws from the fans' support and starts to get to his feet, Rico quickly adjusting into a front facelock as he does so. To the breadbasket goes Dr. Anderson though, landing right hands to the doughy physique of the Brazilian before lifting him up. He's forced to drop him after just a couple of steps due to the continuing choke, but he's closer to his corner now and in sight of a tag. Sensing this, Lucius jumps into the ring and rushes at Dr. Pigley, landing a forearm that draws him into the ring! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The referee holds Pigley back, while Lucius picks up Anderson's legs and together The MGHWC walk him back towards their corner, facelock still applied. VENTURA Soul with a valuable helping hand, good tag team work, like it or not. Rico clamps back down on the facelock as Lucius takes the tag rope, waiting for his opportunity to legally come in. Up top he goes, dropping across Anderson's exposed back with a flying stomp. Lucius then executes a snap suplex and covers... 1... ...kickout! Big standing knee drop by Lucius and another cover... 1... 2... No! Quick tag is made again, Lucius holding Anderson's arms back for a stomp to the chest by Rico. Another boot slams into the chest, before Rico again clamps on a facelock. VENTURA Much as I hate to agree with you Schiavone, sooner or later either Rico or Lucius has gotta assume control and put Anderson away while they have the advantage. At the moment it's a little too tentative. SCHIAVONE And why might that be? VENTURA Well, it could be confidence. They might just be biding their time though. Who knows? As Anderson fights against the facelock, Rico lets him go and sends him off into the ropes. A simple fist buried into the gut doubles the Doctor over, setting him up for a back suplex. But Rico over shoots and Anderson lands on his feet. A shove in the back sends Rico off the ropes, the Brazilian throwing a clothesline on his way back but missing the mark, Max ducking the line and timing his Spinning Back Fist perfectly to crack Rico up under the jaWii VENTURA They might have bided too long Tony! SCHIAVONE They may very well... because THERE is the tag to the fresh Dr. Pigley! The fans get a renewed sense of hope as Dr. Pigley springs up to the top rope and takes out Rico with a Missile Dropkick! "YYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" The Doc jumps up and hands Lucius a reciept, not for something to ease his pain but a forearm that causes it, sending him to the floor and leaving him with just Rico to concentrate on. Ducking a clothesline, Pigley comes back off the ropes and takes a brief trip around the world before coming out of it with a headscissors takeover. Wobbly, Rico then walks into a standing dropkick, sending him tumbling out through the ropes and to the floor. Up off their feet come the crowd, as Dr. Pigley hits the ropes one more time, getting full run-up on a dive... ...that is about to get cut off, as Lucius Soul slides back into the ring and launches forward with the POOOOOOOOUUUUUU... ...NO! Pigley dodges! Barely keeping his feet, Lucius stumbles on into Dr. Anderson, who backdrops him up and over the top rope out by the rampway! With a quick look to each other, The Love Doctors then bring the crowd off their seats again, as they take off in unison, DR. ANDERSON WITH A PLANCHA, DR. PIGLEY WITH A TOPÉ, DOWN GO BOTH MARDI GRAS'ERS!! "YYYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!" VENTURA And the pace has picked up in a BIG way for The Love Doctors! SCHIAVONE Are Lucius and Rico going to live to regret not putting Anderson away when they had the chance? Thrown back inside, Lucius and Rico back away into opposite corners, followed by Pigley and Anderson respectively... "ONE!" "TWO!" "THREE!" "FOUR!" "FIVE!" "SIX!" "SEVEN!" "EIGHT!" "NINE!" "TEN!" Ten punches a-piece in the corner leave Rico and Lucius on unsteady legs. Pigley and Anderson set them up for a double irish whip, Pigley getting his half but Rico able to reverse on Dr. Anderson. Thinking quickly though, Max throws a LARIAT that wipes out the oncoming Soul! Diving over the bodies, Dr. Pigley body blocks Rico back into the corner, unloading with some more right hands while he waits for his partner to dispose of Lucius. SCHIAVONE And unlike their opponents, it looks like the Love Doctors are going straight for the kill! VENTURA No wonder they're never at the hospital. A double irish whip sends Rico off the ropes, Pigley dropping him with an inverted atomic drop on the way back and holding him in place for the dropkick from Anderson! SCHIAVONE Lovematic Grampa, signature Love Doctors! As Max, the illegal man, rolls out of the ring, Steven bridges over Rico with the pin attempt... 1... 2... NO! Tag made, allowing the Love Doctors five more seconds to execute a double team. Pigley scoops Rico back up and hovers him over the canvas this time, while Dr. Anderson warms up the Defibrilattor!! Cover by Anderson, Pigley leaving the ring... 1... 2... SAVE BY LUCIUS! Dr. Pigley tries to get straight back into the ring to aid his partner, but a Bicycle Kick knocks him off the apron to the outside. VENTURA Looks like Lucius has had enough! As Lucius turns around however, Dr. Anderson is waiting for him... *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" ...with a knifedge chop! *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" Another! *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" And a third. Irish whi... no, reversed! Lucius spins out in front of Anderson and sends the Doctor across the ring, into what would be the Mardi Gras corner, where both men not in the ring. Following in after Anderson, Lucius lunges forward looking for a Yakuza Kick in the corner... but Anderson moves and Soul CROTCHES himself on the top ring rope!! LUCIUS :O "OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" By the standing leg, Anderson dumps Lucius the rest of the way up and over the top, before turning his attentions back to Rico and aiming for his head with the Lariat. Rico catches him though, spinning him into a gutwrench and throwing him up and over the shoulder... ...but Dr. Anderson escapes the sure to be unpleasant Moustache Ride and pulls de Janeiro down with a Backslide... SCHIAVONE Could have him! 1... 2... NO, Rico kicks out and quickly pulls Dr. Anderson back into a standing headscissors. SCHIAVONE Oh, Rico almost got caught. VENTURA But he's got him Tony, he's got him! A stroke down of the porn 'stache, then Rico hoists Dr. Anderson up again for the Moustache Ride. Dr. Anderson again tries to struggle free of the impact... and again manages it! Spinning Rico around, Anderson cracks him with a couple of elbow strikes. A slap from the left side cracks Rico and echoes around the arena, even as Anderson lands two more rapid fire open-handers... *SMACK!* ...and an Enziguri! Rico collapses in a heap, seemingly out of it. VENTURA Big succession of strikes right there! Great combination by Anderson. But he's not going for a cover? Anderson isn't done though, as he turns Rico over and drags him into position near the turnbuckles. The Doc heads up top, while on the outside Dr. Pigley cuts off Lucius from making a save. The two illegal men scrap on the floor, leaving Anderson clear to position himself up top. Getting his feet, Dr. Anderson tumbles down towards Rico with his 450 Splash... WHO GETS THE KNEES UP!! VENTURA Aww... big mistake by Anderson! Pulling himself off of Rico, the winded Dr. Anderson staggers away holding his ribs. Rico pulls himself up in the corner. And as Anderson slowly turns around, Rico scythes him down with a clothesline and cradles him up tight... 1... 2... 3!!!! *DINGDINGDING!* VENTURA Got him! Boy, they escaped with that one Tony! As Dr. Pigley jumps in for the save seconds too late, Lucius rushes around the ring and grabs Rico around the shoulders. The relieved Rico barely celebrates, unlike his partner, while in the ring Dr. Anderson sits up and slams the mat in frustration. BUFFER Your winners of the match, advancing on in the Miracle Weirdness Connection Conference... THE MARDI GRAS HHOOOOOOOMEWRECKING CCRRRREEEWWWWWWii! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Lucius pumps his fists in celebration as he and Rico escape off with their victory to general disapproval from all in the arena. SCHIAVONE An opportunistic victory, you have to say, for the number three seeds. VENTURA It's like the saying goes, 'it only takes three seconds'. The clothesline, after the meeting with the knees lets not forget, enough with that tight pin to put down Dr. Anderson for those crucial three seconds. Call it opportunistic, call it what you want, but that could be a big victory in the careers of Rico and Lucius. Their streak of bad luck is over. They won ugly, sure, but all that matters is they won. SCHIAVONE And they advance to the Conference Semi Finals, which begin on this very show next week. Their 'reward' for victory Jesse? A meeting with The Sooner Bruisers! VENTURA There's no easy opponent at this stage of the competition, but that is a stinker for Mardi Gras. They better hope tonight was a turning point. They're gonna need all the momentum they can gather going up against The Sooners, I can guarantee you that! SCHIAVONE As we said, the Conference Semi Finals to be held over the weeks of January 31st and February 7th. We'll be here Jesse, it's shaping up to be quite a tournament. VENTURA It's a 'pick 'em' in my book. Anyone's for the taking. SCHIAVONE And we look forward to next week, but we're not done on HeldDOWN~! tonight. Don't go anywhere, more action coming up...
