(FADE-IN: The arena dims into a reddish hue. The locker room entrance fills with smoke. The first chords of "Change" by the Deftones fill the arena. On the large screen above the entrance a large overview of a fly appears. As the song begins to build the fly slowly begins to disintegrate and it turns into a face cloaked by a black hood. A very silent whispering voice begins to come across the speakers as well.)
VOICE: "Evil. The evil still exists. The decay of man brings him to this desolate playground. Tonight he will prey and stalk in your dreams. There are many evils which walk through this paradigm, and soon those who bask in the darkness will be forced to pay penance. Soon it will be too late for those sinners to hide their sinister plans. Be prepared for the reckoning. There is nothing you can do to stop him. Soon he too will walk amongst you... and when he does... only then, do the nightmares end... and the living hell begin."
(CUT-TO: Lady Veronica catches up to Golem in the back as Golem is finishing up lacing up his black wrestling boots. he turns to her as she makes her way up to him)
LADY VERONICA: "Hello again, Golem. As you know, you're due up for a one-on-one competition against The Jobber."
GOLEM: "Yes, I am more than aware of my more than able-bodied competition. But he is in over his head this time, as Golem is on a mission of Fate and no one can stop him now."
LADY V: "I don't know about that one. You've been doing fine so far but that was the just the beginning round and an already-injured Chris McMillan. The Jobber has handled his opponent with an ease that is comparable to your victories."
GOLEM: "To be true, The Jobber is far and away better than my previous opponents and possibly the toughest competition I will face in this entire tournament. But Golem realizes this and he is ready to lay his existence down and offer himself to Jobber for the Culling of dreams is at hand and harvesting of bodies is at the tempering block. For The Jobber approaches the one they call Golem in a lull of previous victories and a shadow of Golem's hand shall lower supreme darkness over his unwitting false prophecies."
LADY V: "Rigggghhhttt...false prophecies, I assume you are referring to The Jobber's obvious and very blunt statements that he is going to outwrestle you?"
GOLEM: "That's correct. Golem did not enter wrestling a blind child. He understands the way the game is played and can ensnare many with abilities. But The Jobber sees Golem as a poor soothsayer whose realities take the weight and seat of gravel upon the ground. This goes a sad unspoken disappointment in the ears of Golem who would expect more from a competitor such as Jobber."
LADY V: "So you plan to outwrestle The Jobber?"
GOLEM: "I plan to outwrestle, outskill, and out-think Jobber, much as I should've done before. But this is my beautiful chance to atone for previous shortcomings and you can believe that I will brandish the remedies for the old wounds on this night. The Jobber will fall and Golem will ascend."
LADY V: "The ascension will be the GLCW World Title?"
GOLEM: "A trinket should pick up on his Ascension, but by no means the end of it. Golem seeks to reach plateaus that no man has ever grasped before and that no man shall be able to join him atop. Jobber feeds Golem's hungry climb and I thirst for the battle. If you will excuse me, I have some business I must take care of."
(Golem turns and slowly walks off.)
LADY V: "Well, there you have it. Interesting words by Golem. And I'll send it to you Matt."
(CUT-TO: Matt Faley standing at mid-ring)
MATT FALEY: "Our next match is one of the two Semi-Final matches in the GLCW Heavyweight Title tournament! First, coming to the ring," (CUE-UP: "Lawnmower" by Worthless United) "From Whitelandia, USA, weighing in at 220lbs., THE JOBBER!!"
(The crowd boos loudly as The Jobber walks confidently to the ring, wearing long black tights and a bandage on his head from last week's attack. He sneers at some of the people at ringside and acts like they are filthy mongrels. He climbs into the ring and goes to his corner and loosens up)
M.F.: "And his opponent," (CUE-UP: "The Day the World Went Away" by Nine Inch Nails) "From Death Valley, California, weighing in at 238lbs., GOLEM!!"
(The crowd once again boos loudly at Golem, but Golem remains focused on Jobber and he stares at him all the way to the ring, not paying any attention to the fans)
TONY ROSS: "What a matchup this should be folks, Golem taking on Jobber, two veterans who have been around the block a few times and have held several titles!"
RICK WISEMAN: "Both of these men were in the FWF and both were top contenders, and Jobber held the United States Frontier Title! But the fans like neither of these guys, that's for sure."
T.R.: "It's been a wild evening already fans, so we'll see what this match brings. If you remember last week, Kraven and Flatliner attacked Jobber after his match with Angel Castillo and threw him like a lawn dart onto our table here, for no other reason than to make a point! There you see that bandage Jobber has on his head from that attack!"
R.W.: "I'll give The Jobber some credit for coming out here and competing after he was thrown into the table like that, but we'll see how Golem takes advantage of that wound!"
T.R.: "I just have a quick question, what the hell was that all about after we came back from commercial??"
R.W.: "For all I know, it could be the introduction of a new wrester, but I guess we will see how that plays out. We didn't get enough information to speculate on who it is."
T.R.: "Golem and The Jobber are shoving each other in the middle of the ring and talking some serious mess! Jobber slaps Golem in the face and here we go! Both men begin brawling with huge rights and lefts and Golem gets an advantage with a knee to the gut, and he follows it up with a huge kneelift right on Jobber's nose! Jobber hits the mat hard and Golem goes right after that wound, pounding away!"
R.W.: "And Golem wastes no time in ripping the bandage off of Jobber's head and he's tearing at the wound with the Claw!! Oh my!!"
T.R.: "That is grotesque! But the fans seem to be enjoying it as they cheer on Golem's butchery! Referee Al Marinaro screams for Golem to get off of him but Jobber is able to get a thumb to the eye in!"
R.W.: "Well Golem said he was going to outwrestle Jobber, and he completely faked the Jobber and all of us out by brawling and viciously attacking the wound! We may not see a lot of actual wrestling here!"
T.R.: "Jobber uses the ropes to steady himself and he is already opened up! Golem opened that wound up with his Claw! Golem rushes Jobber and he ducks down, sending Golem right over the top and down to the floor and he hits hard!! Jobber collects himself and goes to the apron and he comes down with a double axehandle, staggering Golem as he bounces off the ring steps! Jobber rushes him with a clothesline on the floor! The Jobber checks his wound before he rolls Golem back into the ring!"
R.W.: "That open wound is going to be a serious disadvantage for The Jobber in this match, because not only can he be blinded by the blood getting in his eyes, but if he loses too much he could become woozy! Marinaro is checking the wound but The Jobber says he is fine!"
T.R.: "The Jobber pulls Golem up and whips him in and hits a nice spinebuster! Jobber pulls him right back up and hits an inverted atomic drop and then knocks Golem to the mat with a huge forearm to the back of the head! Jobber charges off the ropes for a double knee drop but Golem rolls out of the way! Jobber charges again right into a drop-toe-hold and he lands flat on his face and the Jobber jumps on him and hooks him in a half crab!! He's got a submission hold here on Golem!"
R.W.: "Golem is pretty close to the ropes here! Oh nevermind!"
T.R.: "Golem is able to twist over and kick Jobber with his free leg! Golem gets to his feet and ducks a running clothesline, kicks Jobber in the gut, and hits a huge powerbomb!! Wow did he nail Jobber with that!! A cover!! 1....2...No!! Jobber is able to kick out as the blood continues to flow! Golem gets up slowly and drills Jobber right on his bloody head! Jobber hits the mat and now the crimson mask is in full effect! Golem gets on top and starts pounding away!"
R.W.: "Marinaro is keeping a close eye on Jobber's wound and now he wants Golem to get off and he checks it again, but Jobber shoves him away!"
T.R.: "Golem with a running knee sends Jobber into the corner hard and Golem charges with a body block but hits nothing but turnbuckle as Jobber avoids him! Jobber comes around and catches him on the rebound and rolls him up with a handful of tights!! 1....2...No!! Golem escapes barely! Both men are up at the same time and hit each other woth clotheslines!! Both men are down as Marinaro lays down the count!"
R.W.: "The Jobber is beginning to look like a disaster victim in there, he needs to try and get a win fast and get some medical attention for that cut!"
T.R.: "Golem is first up and he pulls Jobber to his feet, but the Jobber hits him with a dragon screw leg whip out of nowhere!! There was some serious torque on Golem's knee there and Golem favors that knee! Jobber tries to hook the half crab again but Golem is blocking it with all his strength! Golem kicks him off!"
R.W.: "And Jobber collides with Marinaro, but it sure as hell looks like he did it on purpose!"
T.R.: "It looked that way to me, Rick! The Jobber really clobbered Marinaro there and he is down and out! Jobber gave himself a little more momentum if you asked me, and now Jobber rolls out of the ring and looks under the apron, and he finds a huge wrench that's used for putting the ring together!! He rolls back in with it and he goes to swing at Golem, but Golem kicks him right in the groin!! Jobber drops the wrench and Golem grabs it and drills him right in the gut with it!! He hits the Backdrop Driver!! No ref!!"
R.W.: "Golem was sure to push the wrench out of the ring to hide the evidence, but I can't blame Golem for using it since the Jobber brought it in first after he hit the ref!"
T.R.: "Golem is screaming for Marinaro to get up and he shakes off the cobwebs and crawls over and counts the pin!! 1....2....3!! Golem gets the win!! Like you said Rick, I can't blame him for turning the weapon against the Jobber! The Jobber is out cold and bloody as the Golem secures a spot in the Finals with the Backdrop Driver!!"
R.W.: "I just couldn't see The Jobber lasting in this match after that wound opened up! He really needs some attention in there! Wait a minute!"
T.R.: "Uh oh, here comes Kraven and Flatliner!! They are followed closely by JC who has a devious smile on his face! What's gonna happen here! They climb in the ring with smiles on their faces and Golem looks like he wants no part of this! Kraven and Flatliner start circling Golem and they are all smiles! Kraven extends his hand, and Golem won't take it! The crowd cheers as Golem waves them off but..ohh!! Kraven nails Golem in the back of the head!! Look out!! Kraven and Flatliner start the attack on Golem, who looks to be their new target!! Golem is fighting back!! Huge rights and lefts paper both Kraven and Flatliner as they seem to be stunned by Golem's resistance! Golem dropkicks Kraven and he flips over the ropes!! The crowd is getting behind Golem here!! Golem goes for a cross body block but Flatliner catches him and hits a huge implant slam!! Wow!! That ended that resistance in a hurry!!"
R.W.: "Here comes Kraven back in and he doesn't look very pleased at all!"
T.R.: "Flatliner picks Golem up in a bearhug and he holds him by the ropes as Kraven climbs to the top rope! Could this be the Face-Off!? Kraven mounts himself and wait a minute!! Here comes Maelstrom!! The crowd is exploding as Maelstrom comes charging to the ring and he pushes Kraven off the top rope and he goes flying to the mat and lands awkwardly on his knee!! Maelstrom climbs quickly into the ring as Flatliner drops Golem and Maelstrom blasts Flatliner right in the face with a big boot, and he tries to apply the Mortal Sin, but Flatliner slips free and rolls out of the ring!! He pulls Kraven out by his legs as their fellow Pandorian Maelstrom stands in the ring yelling obscenities at them!"
R.W.: "Maelstrom makes his presence known here again on Riptide here in Racine! Maelstrom has never been known to help anybody, but he just saved Golem from getting his head taken off by the Unholy Alliance!"
T.R.: "Kraven, Flatliner and JC are all yelling at Maelstrom who is simply inviting them all into the ring, but they won't oblige! The Unholy Alliance walks away from ringside as the boos and garbage rain down upon them! Maelstrom turns and sees Golem getting to his feet!! Golem collects himself and walks up to Maelstrom and they are face to face!! Two of the sports greatest gladiators are in each other's face in a staredown here in Racine!! I don't think these two have ever gone at it in the squared circle! But wait! Golem extends his hand!! The crowd roars as Golem looks out to them and Maelstrom looks down to Golem's hand!! Maelstrom looks out to the roaring crowd, then at Golem, and then he accepts the handshake!! Could this be the beginning of a new team to battle the Unholy Alliance!? The crowd is eating it up here!"
R.W.: "I would want Maelstrom and Golem on my side any day of the week, and it looks like these two at least are on the same page when it comes to dealing with the UA, but keep in mind that both of these guys are loners and don't adapt well to teammates!"
T.R.: "Well for now there doesn't seem to be a problem as Maelstrom exits the ring as Golem watches! The fans continue to cheer for them! Ok fans, let's take it back to Lady Veronica standing by with Jarod Poe!"
(CUT-TO: Lady V stands in front of the GLCW banner as if waiting for somebody. The camera pans over and shows Jarod Poe as he sits atop an empty cargo box. He's dressed in leather pants, black boots and a black t-shirt. On it it a picture of Saddam Hussein. The number 1937 - 2002 written in white letters underneath. The camera focuses back on Lady V)
LADY VERONICA: "Jarod can I have a word with you?"
JAROD POE: "...."
(Lady V seems a bit lost for words)
LADY V: "As a rookie you've made quite an impact not just in the ring, but
upon the fans itself. My question is what is this Beast you speak of?"
(Jarod uses his hand to push the hair from his face)
J.P.: "Why, have you seen him?"
LADY V: "No...I'm just curious why you keep refering to him."
J.P:: "Because he's there. He's there in the darkness. You might not have seen him, but Michael Manson will."
LADY V: <smiles> "I'm not sure what your getting at?"
J.P.: "Tonight if I get the chance I'll hit The Fading light and Michael
Manson will see the beast as I do when my eyes are closed. You can't stop
him. Nobody can...the only thing that stops him is my pain or another
victim."
LADY V: <looking nervous> "Yeah...ah..."
(Suddenly Poe places his hand on her chin in looks into her eyes. Lady V
look nervous and tries to pull away. Poe grips harder)
J.P.: "You know you look just like her..."
LADY V: "....Who?...."
(Poe Let's go)
J.P.: "You're pretty in the same way she was, but you can't be her."
LADY V: "And why is that?"
J.P.: "She's dead."
(With that Jarod turns and walks away)
LADY V: ".....Um, we'll be back after this commercial with the main event....Jarod Poe vs. Michael Manson."
