(FADEIN: Jason Tripp standing backstage with New ERA President Marcus LaRoque.)
TRIPP: “I am Jason Tripp and I am here backstage with New ERA of Wrestling President Marcus LaRoque. Thanks for taking the time to talk with us, Marcus.”
LaROQUE: “No problem. I do what I can.”
TRIPP: “With New ERA’s second pay per view coming up there’s been a lot of speculation on new faces appearing in the BattleBRAWL itself. Can you give us any updates?”
LaROQUE: “Well, we have signed four new people to contracts here at New ERA, all of whom will be making their debuts at BattleBRAWL.”
TRIPP: “And they would be?”
LaROQUE: “Kade Kash, an incredible kid, Jason Payne, a man who people are familiar with, Jack Ghostrin, a man who should definitely make an impact here in the circuit, and Jack Durden, another man who will make heads turn starting at BattleBRAWL.”
TRIPP: “Are there more on the way?”
LaROQUE: “Well right now we have one more guy who I don’t think I should mention … and as always we are trying to get more and more talent to grace our rings for the fans.”
TRIPP: “The women’s division kicks off officially at BattleBRAWL and I know that it is something that you’ve especially wanted to see.”
LaROQUE: “You’re right, Jason. Women’s wrestling has been practically non-existent since about the mid-90’s, with the exception of GWE. We’ve got six to eight great ladies who, as we’ve seen leading up to the pay per view, especially tonight, are ready to help put women’s wrestling back in the limelight.”
TRIPP: “Any hints on who you’d prefer to take home the Television and Women’s Championships?”
LaROQUE: “Why that’d be unethical of me to make such an announcement, wouldn’t it?”
(Tripp laughs like a true mark.)
TRIPP: “Why I guess it would. Thanks for your time, Mr. LaRoque and good luck on getting some more people for the pay per view. Back to you at ringside.”
(FADETO: Ringside with Tom Gheorghe and Nick Jive.)
GHEORGHE: “Marcus LaRoque has been working overtime to try to make New ERA BattleBRAWL a success and from what he’s just said it should turn out to be an incredible pay per view.”
JIVE: "Who gives a shit about that ... JEAN RABESQUE ATTACKED ANTAEUS!"
GHEORGHE: "Jean Rabesque, tired of week upon week of getting blindsided, has taken things into his own hands.. First it was Chaos earlier tonight ... and then as we faded out, Jean Rabesque caught up to ANTAEUS and introduced his head into the lockers. What a match they're going to have at BattleBRAWL."
JIVE: “DESTRUCITY was a success … and while BattleBRAWL doesn’t have, let’s say, the Pole on a Pole match, we do have an incredible main event as Jean Rabesque will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against both Chaos and ANTAEUS in a steel cage match where the entire ringside area will be enclosed.”
GHEORGHE: “Speaking of main events, do you have any predictions about tonight’s?”
JIVE: “Of course.. MWG has been on a roll, and tonight he’s going to teach El Arco Iris a lesson on how to be gay.”
GHEORGHE: “Please tell me you mean happy go lucky.”
JIVE: “What else would I mean, Tom?”
GHEORGHE: “Let’s head up to ringside.”
(CUTTO: Carl Jacobs standing in the ring.)
JACOBS: “The following match is scheduled for one fall and is tonight’s MAIN EVENT! Introducing first …. Being led to the ring by his manager Krist Blue….”
(CUEUP: ‘Faggot’ by Mindless Self Indulgence. The lights in the arena flash rainbow as MWG and Krist Blue appear on the rampway.)
JACOBS: “He stands six foot three and weighs 232 pounds …. Hailing from where the sun shines and the birds sing …………. EM DUBBYA GEE!”
(MWG rolls into the ring and he goes on all fours as Krist Blue straddles his back.)
JACOBS: “And his opponent…”
(CUEUP: ‘Tunak Tunak Tun’ by Daler Mehndi as the lights flash rainbow again.)
JIVE: “Well … at least this main event won’t be protested by the National Gay and Lesbian Taskforce…”
JACOBS: “He stands five foot six and weighs 190 pounds ….. hailing from the end of the rainbow ………. EL ARCO IRIS!”
(SFX: Bell rings.)
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris is in the ring and he looks inquisitively as MWG and Krist Blue are still in their pose..”
JIVE: “I don’t know if he thinks he should run … or join in.”
GHEORGHE: “Krist Blue leaves the ring at the request of the referee and MWG is now back on his feet and he is eying El Arco Iris up and down … El Arco Iris extends his hand … and MWG accepts it …….. BUT MWG PULLS EL ARCO IRIS IN AND LOCKS A KISS ON IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!”
JIVE: “I think I felt our rating drop dramatically….”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris pushes MWG off of him and is now asking for an explanation …. AND MWG ANSWERS WITH A BOOT TO THE STOMACH …. El Arco Iris bent over …. AND MWG GOES OVER WITH A SUNSET FLIP ………….. ONE ……….. TWO ………….. KICKOUT. MWG up as El Arco Iris gets up to his feet …. And El Arco Iris goes behind MWG and takes him over with a german suplex …. There’s the bridge… ONE …… TWO…. KICKOUT BY MWG!”
JIVE: “El Arco Iris is fast … and MWG is easy … this is a match made in Heaven!”
GHEORGHE: “MWG back to his feet and El Arco Iris takes him by the hand …. Irish whip by Iris sends MWG into the ropes …. Iris follows him into the ropes and as MWG comes off them Iris drives the knee into the midsection and MWG somersaults and lands on the mat.. Iris now picking up the head of MWG and he locks on a side head lock.”
JIVE: “If I were Iris I’d be careful where I put MWG’s head.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG now forcing Iris to his feet …. And MWG now backing Iris into the corner…. The referee calling for the break and it’s a clean break ……. BUT MWG DRIVES THE ELBOW INTO THE JAW OF IRIS! MWG grabs the head of El Arco Iris ….. AND DDTs HIM TO THE MAT! MWG now straddling El Arco Iris as he pounds away …. AND EL ARCO IRIS USES HIS FEET TO CATCH THE ARMS OF MWG AND HE BRINGS HIM DOWN! ONE ……. KICKOUT!”
JIVE: “El Arco Iris is awfully flexible .. makes you wonder how he got to be so..”
GHEORGHE: “No it doesn’t!”
JIVE: “I think the fans have a right to know!”
GHEORGHE: “MWG back to his feet and he just clotheslined El Arco Iris back to the mat! He practically took his head off.”
JIVE: “Better to…”
GHEORGHE: “Please shut up.”
JIVE: “But I was just going to say that Iris would enjo..”
GHEORGHE: “No. Stop. MWG picks up El Arco Iris and he locks his arms around the waist …. NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! MWG now against the ropes … and he drops the leg across the throat of El Arco Iris. MWG looks to be in top form, Nick.”
JIVE: “MWG was pissed off leading up to this match. He has beaten Jean Rabesque, he has beaten Maelstrom.. and yet it is Chaos and ANTAEUS getting the title shot while he’s stuck going after the Television title.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG is the #1 Contender to the Television Championship … but since the title is vacant he was given the last spot into the battle royal .. I would be happy with that.”
JIVE: “That’s because you’re a talentless scrub, Tom.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG brings El Arco Iris to his feet …. And he takes him back down with a neckbreaker. El Arco Iris needs to try to get back some momentum here because once you let MWG take control of things he doesn’t let up.”
JIVE: “It’s a perfect working relationship. MWG is a top, and El Arco Iris is a total bottom.”
GHEORGHE: “I don’t even think I want to know what you’re talking about.”
JIVE: “MWG is a pitcher … El Arco Iris is a catcher.”
GHEORGHE: “You’ve lost me. I thought you gave up Vic’s Special Water.”
JIVE: “MWG likes to fuck, Iris likes to be fucked.”
GHEORGHE: “Good lord, Nick!”
JIVE: “Glad I could be of some service to you.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG now wrapping his legs around the torso of El Arco Iris … AND HE’s TRYING TO SQUEEZE THE AIR RIGHT OUT OF HIM! El Arco Iris squirming around as he’s trying to get out of this predicament … but MWG is keeping him tight.”
JIVE: “MWG has got thighs of steel.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG finally releasing the hold and he gets to his feet … he brings El Arco Iris up … and now he tosses him into the corner …. MWG charges in … BUT EL ARCO IRIS PUTS UP THE BOOTS ….. MWG charges in again …. AND AGAIN EL ARCO IRIS PUTS UP THE BOOTS! MWG walks out …… BUT EL ARCO IRIS WITH THE SCHOOL BOY ……….. ONE …………. TWO …………. TH—NO! El Arco Iris quickly to his feet and he has MWG ….. SMALL PACKAGE! ONE ………… TWO ………… THREE! NO! MWG barely kicked out at the last moment.”
JIVE: “Somehow MWG managed to regain his thought and kicked out before Iris stole a victory."
GHEORGHE: “Iris locks his arms … AND TAKES MWG OVER WITH AN OVER THE HEAD BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! Iris quick to follow up …. And he locks MWG in a Fujiwara arm bar … and he has it perfectly executed! I have a feeling that MWG loves the pain … but I don’t know how long he can last.”
JIVE: “Here .. let me call up Beau and find out.”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris is yanking on the arm …. But MWG doesn’t seem to be in pain … HE IS EVEN SMILING!”
JIVE: “MWG IS AN ANIMAL I TELL YA!”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris releases the hold after seeing it would get him nowhere … MWG slowly gets to his feet, however … AND IRIS TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A HEADSCISSORS! MWG back to his feet in the corner …. AND EL ARCO IRIS COMES IN AND SPLASHES MWG RIGHT IN THE CORNER! MWG wobbles out … AND HE FALLS TO THE MAT!! EL ARCO IRIS IS GOING UP TOP!”
JIVE: “Here comes the money shot…”
GHEORHGE: “IRIS FLIES OFF WITH A MOONSAULT ………… BUT MWG PUTS UP THE KNEES!’
JIVE: “Too soon… MWG hates guys like that.”
GHEORGHE: “Both men are on the mat …. But MWG is making the first move. MWG on one knee (shoots a dirty glance at Nick, who says nothing) and finally back to both feet as Iris is sitting up …. AND MWG WITH A DROPKICK / BASEBALL SLIDE COMBINATION AND IRIS’ HEAD HITS THE MAT!”
JIVE: “MWG realizing that he can not let Iris get to his feet or else he’d be screwed.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG grabs the legs of El Arco Iris …. And he is trying to turn him over ….. MWG TURNS IRIS OVER AND LOCKS ON THE BOSTON CRAB! And now he is putting both of Iris’ legs in one arm ….”
JIVE: “What does he plan on doing with the free one?”
GHEORGHE: “MWG IS NOW REACHING UNDERNEATH THE BODY OF EL ARCO IRIS …….. AND IRIS IS NOW TRYING TO BREAK FREE WITH ALL OF HIS MIGHT!”
JIVE: “Is he doing what I think he’s doing?”
GHEORGHE: “Only he and Iris know for sure … but El Arco Iris manages to kick free ….. and MWG falls to the mat with a smile on his face!”
JIVE: “You know what they say about latino men…”
GHEORGHE: “MWG back to his feet and he grabs Iris by the head …. RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP by MWG …. And now he is stepping on the throat of El Arco Iris trying to cut off the air! The referee counting …”
REF: “ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FI…”
GHEORGHE: “And MWG releases before the five count ….. BUT NOW HE GOES BACK TO CHOKING HIM!”
REF: “ONE! TWO! THREE! FOU..”
GHEORGHE: “And MWG releases the choke again and this time the referee warns him against doing it a third time. MWG drags El Arco Iris towards the corner …….. AND THERE IS THE FLAME THROWER!! That hot shot right into the top turnbuckle .. El Arco Iris resting on the turnbuckle …. AND MWG IS PUTTING HIM ON THE TOP ROPE!”
JIVE: “MWG pulling out all he has in an attempt to show the front office that he’s got more than anyone else in the back… and in the front.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG now climbing the ropes ….. MWG HAS EL ARCO IRIS WITH HIM ON THE TOP ROPE ………………………… AND HE SUPERPLEXES HIM TO THE MAT!!! MWG drapes the arm over Iris …….. ONE …………. TWO ……….. THREE ……… NOOOOOOOOO! El Arco Iris managed to get his shoulder up!”
JIVE: “El Arco Iris and MWG having a hell of a battle.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG crawling to the ropes … and El Arco Iris is starting to stir … MWG gets himself to his feet as Iris is trying to get to his …. BOTH MEN NOW ON THEIR FEET!!! MWG walks over to El Arco Iris …. BUT IRIS WITH A BACK HEEL KICK! MWG stumbles back into the ropes ………. AND EL ARCO IRIS DROPKICKS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE ARENA FLOOR!”
JIVE: “The fans just went nuts!”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris against the far ropes ……….. AND HE JUST NAILED MWG WITH THE SPACEMAN SUICIDE PLANCHA!!!! BOTH MEN ARE OUT ON THE ARENA FLOOR!”
JIVE: “That might just be the end of both men!”
GHEORGHE: “The referee standing over by the ropes and he is counting them out ….”
REF: “ONE! TWO! THREE!”
JIVE: “El Arco Iris dove through those ropes like no other.”
GHEORGHE: “The ref up to five as El Arco Iris begins to move …. MWG is out it seems!”
REF: “SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT!”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris grabs MWG by the hair …. And he rolls him in and follows him in. El Arco Iris now with a front facelock submission…. BUT KRIST BLUE GRABS MWG’s ARM AND DRAPES IT OVER THE BOTTOM ROPE!”
JIVE: “The referee didn’t see it so he’s calling for Iris to give up the hold…”
GHEORGHE: “Iris looks a little shocked …. And now he brings MWG to his feet … Iris with another back…. NO! MWG CAUGHT HIS FOOT! IRIS WITH AN ENZIGUIRI …. BUT MWG DUCKED AND IRIS HITS THE MAT! MWG NOW SITTING ON THE BACK OF IRIS AND HE GRABS THE ARMS ………. MWG NOW LEANING BACK ….. AND HE HAS IRIS LOCKED IN A SURFBOARD!”
JIVE: “If there’s one move that I HATE it’s the surfboard… when done right it is one of the most painful moves in wrestling.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG extending his legs as far as he can … but Iris is refusing to give up…. FINALLY the weight of Iris seems too much to bear and MWG releases the hold!”
JIVE: “That’s the only problem with the surfboard … if you’re in a match like this that’s gone back and forth your endurance is low.”
GHEORGHE: “MWG and El Arco Iris both on the mat and they both look exhausted… MWG gets to his feet, however, and now grabs El Arco Iris by the mask… MWG sends Iris into the corner … AND HE FOLLOWS HIM RIGHT IN………”
(SFX: Crowd pops huge!)
JIVE: “HOLY SHIT!”
GHEORGHE: “EL ARCO IRIS LEPT OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE PAD AND LAUNCHED HIMSELF OVER MWG WHO JUST WENT CHEST FIRST INTO THE CORNER!!!! EL ARCO IRIS GRABS MWG BY THE BACK OF THE HEAD ………… REVERSE DDT!!!”
JIVE: “HE’s GOING UP TOP!”
GHEORGHE: “EL ARCO IRIS CATLIKE TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE ……….. AND HE NAILS THE 450 SPLASH!!!!!! EL ARCO IRIS COVERS ………. ONE …………… TWO ………………… THREE!!!!!”
(SFX: Bell rings.)
JIVE: “I can’t believe it!!! The fruitcake just beat …. (pauses) the fruitcake!”
JACOBS: “The winner of this match via pinfall …….. EL ARCO IRIS!”
GHEORGHE: “El Arco Iris pulling off a HUGE victory here that should give him a boatload of confidence going into BattleBRAWL … and MWG has another chip on his shoulder as he tries to gain the Television Championship that he thinks he should have already!”
JIVE: “I … can’t believe it…. It all happened so fast!”
GHEORGHE: “LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE ARE OUT OF TIME!! THANKS FOR JOINING US HERE IN SACRAMENTO …. AND THE NEXT TIME YOU WILL SEE US IS ON NOVEMBER 30 th FOR NEW ERA OF WRESTLING’s BATTLEBRAWL!!!!!!!!!”
(FADEOUT: To Krist Blue, who is now in the ring trying to wake up MWG …Blue reaches down her pants and pulls out a container … opening the lid she waves it in front of MWG ’s face, who opens his eyes, and pulls her in for a kiss. Fade to black.)
