(FADEIN: The logo for New ERA’s secondary show, RAPTURE … beginning next week!)
GHEORGHE: “New ERA of Wrestling brings you another television show as RAPTURE will hit the airwaves sometime next week .. and what an exciting time this is in New ERA, Nick!”
JIVE: “A marvelous concept … more chances for New ERA superstars to prove their worth! And best of all … you get to see my face AGAIN!”
GHEORGHE: “I don’t know how you managed that.. in fact, I don’t know how you’re going to manage being on both RAUCOUS and RAPTURE. You can hardly handle this job.”
JIVE: “You’re just jealous that I hold more weight with the people who run this place .. but I gotta tell you .. having Jason Tripp next to me is going to be torture .. I may have to bring more vod.. err Poland Springs with me than usual!”
GHEORGHE: “Jason Tripp getting his chance to call the action on RAPTURE .. but I’m sure he’s busy right now trying to track down ANTAEUS … who once again attacked Jean Rabesque!”
JIVE: “ANTAEUS managing to get in his shots on Rabesque .. he attacked him at the pay per view … and now here again tonight as he was coming back from running his mouth. But hey, it isn’t THAT bad .. at least someone is standing up for the way he stole the World Heavyweight championship from Larry Tact!”
GHEORGHE: “Jean Rabesque won the title fair and square, Nick.”
(Jive sniffs the air.)
JIVE: “Do I smell fish?”
GHEORGHE: “OH GOD! Stop it! Ladies and gentlemen, Nick is hinting about the fact that we have our ladies match here next as Karla Starr is set to take on Victoria Hawke.”
JIVE: “Victoria Hawke is from Sweden, right? Swedish girls are FINE … blonde hair .. blue eyes … legs that go forever.”
GHEORGHE: “Lets go up to Carl Jacobs who is standing in the ring .. at least he has some respect for the fine athleticism we can expect from the upcoming mathc.”
JIVE: “Hey, I respect the athleticism coming up .. all I gotta do is close my eyes and imagine my own match .. full of spread eagles and hot fudge.”
(CUTTO: The ring as the lineup for the following match comes on screen. Carl Jacobs stands in the ring with a microphone in his hand.)
JACOBS: “The following match is scheduled for one fall and has a thirty minute time limit! Introducing first…”
(CUEUP: ‘Beautiful Life’ by Ace of Base. Victoria Hawke walks through the curtain, wearing blue and gold attire. The fans begin to boo. As she walks down the rampway holding her nose.)
JIVE: “See! She smells it, too!”
JACOBS: “Standing five foot seven and weighing in at 130 pounds … she hails from Kiruna, Sweden …….. VICTORIA HAWKE!”
GHEORGHE: “I have heard tons of good things about Hawke .. and I know that New ERA is very lucky to have her in their women’s division!”
JACOBS: “And her opponent…”
(CUEUP: ‘Maps’ by the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs. The fans begin to boo incredibly loud as Starr walks to the ring with a determined look on her face.)
GHEORGHE: “And the fans here are NOT happy to see Karla Starr! She has caused so much commotion the past months …”
JACOBS: “She stands five foot ten and weighs 127 pounds …… hailing from BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS ……… KARLA STARR!”
(SFX: Bell rings.)
JIVE: “So does she call herself Kahhla Stahhh?”
GHEORGHE: “I’d assume so …”
JIVE: “I love chicks with accents.”
GHEORGHE: “But you’re only used to sucky sucky, five dollar…”
JIVE: “You are going to get naily nailed in the face…”
GHEORGHE: “Starr and Hawke are circling each other in the ring .. trying to feel each other out ..”
JIVE: “I’m all for them feeling each other up!”
GHEORGHE: “Out, Nick.. Out. Starr and Hawke lock up … and Starr powers Hawke to the mat! Victoria Hawke back on her feet … AND KARLA STARR TAKES HER DOWN WITH A WELL PLACED DROPKICK!”
JIVE: “Starr still being hissed at by the fans!”
GHEORGHE: “But Hawke is back up to her feet quickly and she locks up again with Karla Starr! Hawke with an irish whip .. Starr into the ropes … comes back … HAWKE WITH A CLOTHESLINE … BUT STARR DUCKS UNDER IT!”
JIVE: “Starr would have gone flying if Hawke nailed that!”
GHEORGHE: “Starr off the other set of ropes … comes back … FLYING CROSS BODY!!! ONE …… TWO ……. AND HAWKE KICKS OUT!”
JIVE: “Karla Starr is trying to silence the fans by showing her strengths in the ring.”
GHEORGHE: “Starr now locking on a headlock … and Victoria Hawke is reaching to the ropes … and she grabs the middle rope! The referee forces Starr to break the hold. Hawke getting to her feet … here comes Karla Starr … AND HAWKE WITH A SLAP RIGHT ACROSS THE FACE!”
JIVE: “And Starr looks pissed!”
GHEORGHE: “Karla Starr making another move at Hawke … and Victoria Hawke with a kick to the stomach …. She grabs Karla Starr by the hair …. AND SHE TOSSES HER HALFWAY ACROSS THE RING! THAT HAD TO HURT!”
JIVE: “Starr is holding her head! With that long black hair, there’s a bunch to grab on to .. no matter how she tries to tie it up.”
GHEORGHE: “Victoria Hawke picks up Karla Starr again ….. AND AGAIN SHE USES THE HAIR TO TOSS STARR ACROSS THE RING! Karla Starr has a look of pain on her face … and I’ve heard the longer the hair, the more it hurts on the roots!”
JIVE: “Precisely the reason I keep mine short.”
GHEORGHE: “I thought it was to hide the receding hairline…”
JIVE: “I don’t HAVE a receding hairline, thank you!”
GHEORGHE: “Victoria Hawke now picking up Karla Starr…. IRISH WHIP INTO THE CORNER! Hawke now going to the other corner …. Hawke charges in ….. AND VICTORIA HAWKE WITH A HANDSPRING ELBOW INTO THE CORNER …. BUT KARLA STARR ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AND HAWKE HITS THE TURNBUCKLE!”
JIVE: “She went for a high risk maneuver and failed. Ouch. Luckily .. she has a lot of protection in the front.”
GHEORGHE: “Maybe you should stick to just RAPTURE … I can have some peace of mind when you’re gone. Karla Starr now taking Victoria Hawke out of the corner … she picks up Hawke … and plants her with a powerslam! Karla Starr now grabbing the legs of Victoria Hawke … AND SHE IS TRYING TO TURN HER OVER INTO A BOSTON CRAB!”
JIVE: “Starr’s got longer legs than Hawke .. she could cause a lot of damage to the lower back here.”
GHEORGHE: “AND STARR TURNS HER OVER! Victoria Hawke is in a ton of pain and she is desperately reaching for anything she can get her hands on!”
JIVE: “The ropes are far away .. she’s going to have to get some burst of energy to get out of this.”
GHEORGHE: “Speaking of which, Hawke just went deep down and mustered enough strength to kick her legs free! Karla Starr goes to the mat … and now she’s back up .. Starr walks to Hawke … AND SHE ROLLS HER UP!! ONE ……… TWO—NO! Victoria Hawke managed to kick out!”
JIVE: “By rolling over the back and rolling Hawke up she almost caught her off guard!”
GHEORGHE: “Karla Starr now picking up Hawke … AND HAWKE SCRAPES HER IN THE EYES!”
JIVE: “Fake fingernails .. meet sensitive eyes!”
GHEORGHE: “Karla Starr now bent over … AND VICTORIA HAWKE RAKES HER DOWN THE BACK AND STARR ARCHES IN PAIN!”
JIVE: “I was waiting for this to turn into a cat fight!”
GHEORGHE: “Hawke locks her hands …. GERMAN SUPLEX! Karla Starr is lying in front of the corner … AND VICTORIA HAWKE IS GOING TO THE CORNER!”
JIVE: “Is it time for I Tiden already?”
GHEORGHE: “Hawke on the second turnbuckle … she stops …. AND SHE DELIVERS A LUNA ECLIPSE! The second rope elbow drop into the sternum of Karla Starr as she covers her … ONE ………. TWO …….. KICKOUT!”
JIVE: “These gals sure do have a lot of spunk!”
GHEORGHE: “Victoria Hawke now locking the legs of Karla Starr… AND SHE IS GOING FOR A BOSTON CRAB OF HER OWN!!!”
JIVE: “What goes around, comes around … and I know Karla Starr has a lot of stuff coming her way shortly!”
GHEORGHE: “Hawke having problems getting Starr over… AND STARR GRABS THE HEAD OF HAWKE AND SMALL PACKAGES HER! ONE ……….. TWO ……… THREE!”
JIVE: “NO! HAWKE KICKED OUT!”
GHEORGHE: “Victoria Hawke kicking out at the last second! Hawke and Starr are BOTH to their feet now … and STARR WITH A SLAP TO THE FACE OF HAWKE! AND HAWKE SLAPS HER BACK!!”
JIVE: “Now rip each other’s clothes off!”
GHEORGHE: “Karla Starr sends Victoria Hawke into the ropes … Hawke comes back … HURRICANRANA!!! Karla Starr nailing a BEAUTIFUL hurricanrana ..”
JIVE: “That’s what we need .. more crotch in face action.”
GHEORGHE: “Jesus, will you stop it? If you want crotch in face, just watch the Pole on a Pole match again!”
JIVE: “You evil, evil man.”
GHEORGHE: “AND KARLA STARR IS SIGNALLING FOR THE MOONSHOT! That is the god damned superkick that she has been using to nail Jean Rabesque and Larry Tact!”
JIVE: “And Victoria Hawke isn’t going to know what hit her!”
GHEORGHE: “Hawke slowly getting to her feet … WAIT A MINUTE … JANE DOE IS RUNNING DOWN THE AISLE!”
JIVE: “Oh god .. what a way to ruin it .. throw a dog in the mix.”
GHEORGHE: “Karla Starr setting up … and Hawke turns around ……… BUT JANE DOE WITH A DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE AND SHE TAKES BOTH WOMEN TO THE MAT!! Jane Doe is now in the ring … AND SHE IS TAKING TURNS KICKING BOTH STARR AND HAWKE!”
(SFX: Bell rings.)
JIVE: “Leave it to a Doe to fuck things up.”
GHEORGHE: “Jane Doe picks up Karla Starr …. She irish whips her … AND CLOTHESLINES HER TO THE MAT! Doe now picking up Victoria Hawke …. Irish whips HER into the ropes …. AND ANOTHER CLOTHESLINE!! JANE DOE WITH STARR AGAIN ….. OH MY! AMNESIA ATTACK VERSION TWO POINT ZERO! AND AGAIN TO VICTORIA HAWKE!”
(SFX: Bell repeatedly ringing as the referee stops Doe from getting any more hits on either competitor.)
JIVE: “Bitch slap her!”
GHEORGHE: “No! New ERA of Wrestling does not condone any acts of violence against women by men, or by other women. This was a certified wrestling match until Jane Doe came down and interfered… and now she is leaving the ring!”
JIVE: “Yea.. RUN LIKE THE DOG YOU ARE!”
JACOBS: “Due to outside interference … this match is a DRAW!”
GHEORGHE: “What a way to end what was turning into a fantastic women’s match here on RAUCOUS … I know these two ladies will meet again down the way .. and Jane Doe will definitely have to answer to both of them.”
JIVE: “And to me!”
GHEORGHE: “When we get back though … we have the tag team match that was HONESTLY randomly drawn. ‘Gentleman’ Jonathan Marx will team with his opponent at Destrucity, Troy Douglas, as they take on Alex Borden, and HIS opponent at Destrucity, John Doe.”
JIVE: “Maybe I’ll take out my anger at John Doe …”
GHEORGHE: “You don’t have the balls..”
