HD:Bo vs. Rico

[Zack Malibu 0]

When we return from break, the 80's classic "Rio" by Duran Duran is in mid-stream, as a fired up Rico de Janeiro playfully strokes his moustache and taunts the crowd, climbing up on the turnbuckles and shouting down some of his detractors.

 

COLE

Welcome back to HeldDOWN~!, fans! As you can see we've got the Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew in the ring, and Rico de Janeiro may soon wish he didn't take this little detour from tag team action, because his opponent is one angry Metrosexual Monster!

 

"Liberate" by Disturbed replaces the new wavishness (don't ask me if it's really a word, just accept it!) of Duran Duran, and both members of the MGHC stare up the aisleway, as all eyes are on the arrival of Bohemoth!

 

MICHAEL BUFFER

Introducing, from Greenville, South Carolina...weighing in tonight at two hundred and eighty four pounds, he is known as the Metrosexual Monster...he is BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHEMOTHHHHHH!

 

Briskly walking to the ring, Bo then hops up on the apron and steps through the ropes, cracking his neck as he stares down both Rico and Lucius. Lucius, seemingly intimidated, backpedals out of the ring, patting his partner on the shoulder and offering well wishes, because Bo isn't exactly known for playing nice.

 

COLE

You can see the fire in his eyes, Michael Cole. A fire that was lit by competition, and one that has led to frustration, resentment, and anger. We've been watching a friendship tear apart ever since the Triple Cage match back in November, and now that Zack Malibu vs. Bohemoth is set for Anglemania, both men are on the warpath, looking to take all their frustrations out before they even make it to their scheduled match!

 

The bell sounds, and Rico quickly tries a lockup, only to get shoved down to the canvas with ease from the brutal Bohemoth! Rico gets up and dusts himself off, and gets up, going for another lockup. This time it works in his favor, as he's able to snare Bo in a headlock, but Bo shoves him to the ropes, then floors him with a clothesline! Rico reels, as Lucius pounds the canvas, trying to encourage his partner, as Bo picks him up and sends him towards the corner, where the turnbuckle pads nearly make an imprint on his back due to the severity of the collision!

 

COACH

The Metrosexual Monster ain't pullin' no punches tonight!

 

COLE

We saw earlier that Bo heeded Zack's advice to seize the moment, and that's what led to him causing Zack's elimination in that eight man contest two weeks ago. Those two are fighting tooth and nail just for a CHANCE to become OAOAST World Champion, they might wind up finishing each other off before either can get their hands on the champion!

 

Rico staggers in the corner, and is soon struck with a running lariat that crushes him in the corner! Rico slumps, but Bo picks him up and biels him out of the corner, sending him halfway across the ring!

 

COACH

I hope you had "under three minutes" in the pool tonight, Mikey Cole, because Bo looks set to finish off Rico right here!

 

As Rico tries to recall what town we're in tonight, Bo hits the ropes...but in an act of desperation (or stupidity, your call), Lucius hooks his ankle as he runs the ropes, causing Bo to drop face first into the canvas! Rico, shaking off the effects of Bo's offense, winks at his partner and then starts clubbing the back of Bohemoth, as Lucius cheers him on...and then the cheers of the fans grow high and mighty, as the actions of Lucius have just caused an undesired outcome.

 

COLE

Coach, it's Zack! Zack Malibu is charging down the aisle!

 

Malibu heads to ringside and rounds the corner, rushing after Lucius, who sees him and backsteps! Lucius begs off, then opts for a cheap shot, but Malibu blocks the punch and waylays him with several shots of his own, then sends Lucius into the metal stairs! Lucius, groggy and sore, comes up to his feet, but Maibu rushes him and leaves the ground, leaping into the air to drive the point of his knee into the side of Lucius' head!

 

COLE

ZACK ATTACK ON LUCIUS SOUL!

 

The fans roar, as Lucius is now a non-factor. Bo slips out of Rico's scoop slam attempt, then spins him around and plants him with a spinebuster! With the wind knocked out of him, Rico is easy pickings, as Bo picks him up and effortlessly swings him outward, drilling him hard into the canvas with the Erotic Awakening of B~! One hand on the chest is all it takes, as Bo makes the cocky pin while smirking at Malibu, waiting for Nick Patrick's count to make it official.

 

ONE!

 

TWO!

 

THREE!

 

DING! DING! DING!

 

COLE

Now that is impressive!

 

COACH

That's a BEAST, Michael Cole. Zack Malibu has no idea what Anglemania has in store for him when he has to meet that man!

 

Bo gets up, and now he and Zack are staring each other down. Calmly, Malibu steps into the ring and the two go eye to eye, talking and nodding, with the fans buzzing the whole time.

 

COACH

Is he thanking him or is he going to kill him right here and now?

 

COLE

If I were a betting man, I'd bet the former and not the latter, but with the ways things are going between these two, who knows?

 

Finally, Bo pats the shoulder of Malibu, a gesture of goodwill for Malibu's aid in offsetting Lucius' interference. Malibu nods in acceptance of the gesture and turns to walk away...then looks over his shoulder back at Bo AND CRACKS HIM WITH A SCHOOL'S OUT~!

 

COACH

YO~!

 

COLE

ZACK MALIBU...ZACK HAS JUST DROPPED BOHEMOTH WITH A SCHOOL'S OUT!

 

The fans continue to buzz, some cheering loudly, some booing Zack's shot. Malibu walks over to Bo, standing over his unconscious body before kneeling down and slapping his chest, telling him "We're even!" Zack gets up, looking much more stoic and serious as usual, and heads to the back, never once looking back in regret at what he just did.

 

COLE

Zack Malibu and Bohemoth...they're both out for blood, it looks like neither one wants to wait for Anglemania! Fortunately, for those of you at home waiting for more OAOAST action, we'll have a lot more HeldDOWN~! for you, right after this!
