Grey Wolf vs. Ezekial
McDaniel: Welcome fans, to what will temporarily be the last installment of PWA's Saturday Night Rampage! For the next few weeks, a joint-roster enactment will be in effect for the W4F and PWA, and so all of our current stars will be wrestling on Thursday nights.
Rentfro: Its all a bit stupid, if you ask me. I don't see any reason for it.
Watas: I guess its a corporate thing...
M: Whatever the case, our opening bout debuts Grey Wolf against Ezekial.
Let's go to the ring!
DING DING
Rentfro: Both men lock up, and Wolf takes him over in a snapmare, locking in a sleeper hold for good measure.
McDaniel: Ezekial gets to one knee, manages a few elbows in the gut. Ezekial back into the ropes, but gets met with a powerslam!
1...
2, kickout at two.
[Grey Wolf in control, he locks in an armbar, then spins the arm of Ezekial around, dropping an elbow onto the shoulder.]
Watas: At only his first match, Grey Wolf is already looking incredibly sound as a wrestler, giving the veteran Ezekial quite a run.
McDaniel: Indeed, as we see him execute a perfect gut wrench powerbomb! Impressive!
[Ezekial powers out of a suplex attempt, and spears Grey Wolf into the ground. Connecting with a leg drop, he stays in control with an inverted atomic drop, followed by a running bulldog.]
Watas: Ezekial going to the top rope, showing off some high risk ability!
Rentfro: Ezekial jumps.... WHOA!!
McDaniel: Grey Wolf caught his neck in mid-air, landing with a super-neckbreaker! The cover!
1...
2...
3! Grey Wolf wins it!
Rentfro: Wow, the rookie takes over the veteran, and I imagine Ezekial's going to have to rethink his current strategies at this point.
Watas: That's definately one that will haunt him, at least mentally for a while.
McDaniel: Let's take a break, when we come back, Phoenix takes the place of Silverback to take on James McBride!
Ring Announcer: Entering first, from Orlando, Florida... THEEEE PHOENIX!["Rain" by the Cult blares out of the speakers as the arena lights go red. The Phoenix slowly walks to the ring, surveying the arena as he goes.]
Ring Announcer: And his opponent, from Santa Clara, California... i give,
you, JAAAMES MCBRIDE!
["What If?" by Creed kicks up, but McBride is nowhere to be found.]
McDaniel: What's happened to McBride?
Watas: I could guess, but you probably won't like it...
[No sooner does the music die, then McBride is shown on the monitor... laying in a pool of his own blood backstage.]
McDaniel: What the hell happened?
Rentfro: I see three magic letters being the cause here...
Watas: I'd say the MoA is likely to have something behind this...
McDaniel: We've just gotten word this is a no contest match-up...
McDaniel: Fans, we've unveiled even more disturbing news.... Dr. Demise is nowhere to be found in the entire arena.
Rentfro: They got him, he's gone... OH well.
Watas: How can you not care so much?
Rentfro: People get what they deserve, its a fact of life.
McDaniel: It could just be that he refused to show up tonight. Because of the Roster Sharing with W4F, many PWA stars refused to attend tonight's card.
Watas: Yes, but none of them were booked stars.
McDaniel: We'll just have to wait and see what develops here. For now, this is our second no-conest of the night.
Ring Announcer: Entering first, the challenger. From Asbury Park, New Jersey... JONATHAN HAZELWOOOOD!
["Warning" by Incubus blares over the PA as John Hazelwood walks to the ring. He wears a red and black tanktop with a biohazard control sign on the front, and red and black tights with the same desgin on the sides. He gets in the ring to a mixed reaction, no pyros or anything, and poses for the crowd before "Warning" by Incubus fades.]
Ring Announcer: And his opponent, the current PWA Grizzly Beer Champion. The leader of the Masters of Armageddon.... FAAATE!
["New Skin" blares over the PA, and an MoA entourage appears, escorting Fate to the ring. Hazelwood shows a bit of unrest, as the six-man guard encircles the ring, with Fate entering on the far corner.]
DING DING
McDaniel: Both men to the center. A lock-up, but Fate with a sharp boot to the sturnum of Hazelwood, followed by a swift martial arts kick to the chest, sends him backward.
Rentfro: Fate has been on a role after winning that Grizzly title, but Hazelwood is no pushover.
Watas: But you have to imagine those Masters on the outside are enough of a distraction, even if they don't get involved. Its just not right...
[Ridel misses a third kick, with Hazelwood catching the leg and sending Fate to the mat with a shoulder block maneuver.]
McDaniel: Jonathan moves in with an elbow drop right into the heart of Darren Ridel. Lifting his opposition up, he takes him into the air...
spinning shoulder slam!
1...
2... kickout.
[Hazelwood takes some time to circle Fate, then lifts him up - but Ridel pushes his arms away, and jumps up and around with a tornado DDT.]
Watas: Whoa, I've never seen him do that!
McDaniel: Fate wastes no time backing into the ropes, and jumps with the momentum to nail a flying cross body! He continues to roll onto the apron.
[Fate runs up the tope turnbuckle, sets himself, then jumps...
Spins...
And lands the Seven Star Splash!]
Rentfro: Seven Star Splash!!
1...
2...
3! Ridel retains his belt!
McDaniel: Ridel will go on to meet Grey Wolf, the winner of tonight's opening bout, as a main event header on the first Thriller card next week.
Watas: In addition, Showtime will take on Sirus Moran... but will Showtime have anything to say to that man, Darren Ridel, as to what happened to his cousin here tonight.
McDaniel: We'll have to wait and see. Goodnight, fans!
