JACOBS: “We are back and it is time for Steve Johnson verses Peter File for the BAD World Heavyweight championship but before we go into things, Jonathan, you were saying something to me during the break.”
MARX: “There have been a lot of wrestlers in the back and a lot of older wrestling fans who have come up to me and said how impressed by the amount of fire King Krusher has shown in his comeback and I'd just like to say that I'm one of them. He wrestled alongside my father and I have a deep respect for him. Sometimes he like me can get a bit preachy about how wrestling used to be, but that is just because he loves this sport and I wish more wrestlers had that passion. I don't know how he will fair against Jason Payne later on tonight, Krusher is getting up there in age and Payne is considerably younger, but I hope King Krusher somehow manages to pull off the victory and bring the P©X championship home. He wouldn't no show a title defense without alerting the office head of time and then crack a joke about how he didn't show up because had better things to do on our television.”
“NOT” WATERS: “But it’s edgy!”
MARX: “It isn't 1999. If Jason Payne wants to prove himself, he can do it to the ring and despite everything that happened, Payne can redeem himself because WFW:NE is the home of misfits and second chances.”
JACOBS: “Now let’s get on to bigger and better things, the BAD World Heavyweight Title defense...”
“NOT” WATERS: “I like Peter File in this match. He has a way of getting other wrestlers off their game. I can honestly say as long as I've been watching Steve Johnson, he has never faced anyone quite like Peter File.”
MARX: “Steve Johnson has taken on his share of characters. He took on the unorthodox Jared Wells and beat him for the BAD World Heavyweight championship. He is more than capable of overcoming of dealing with anything that is thrown his way.”
JACOBS: “Before we go to the match, let’s hit the Twitter and see what the fans are saying about what was said about Jason Payne and the upcoming match between Johnson & File...”
@pchild “LOL@ Payne. The dude ain't even third rate- he's fucking Kindergarden!”
@viper316 “PAYNE HARDCORE, PAYNE SMASH!”
@maelstrom “Good luck buddy!”
@buckeye1970 “OSU represent! GO JOHNSON!”
@judylover77 “File, bring it home darlin'”
“NOT” WATERS: “Man, those tweets are all over the place.”
MARX: “We have a strong following tonight and it only going to grow as time goes on.”
JACOBS: “Folks, we are being told that while we were talking, there was a taped pre-match interview where an backstage incident occurred, let’s send this one to the back to Jennifer Harding!”
LINKS: “The following match is scheduled for ONE FALL for the BAD World Heavyweight championship match where anything goes and the toughest man is left standing!”
(CUEUP: “Fuck The Pain Away” by Peaches. The lights in the arena dim as the pyro goes off in the ring. A bloody Peter File crawls down to the ring to the heavy boos from the crowd.)
LINKS: “INTRODUCING FIRST, from New Haven, Connecticut, weighing in at 225 pounds and standing at 6'4, “THE SULTAN” PETER FILE!”
(CUEUP: “Won´t Back Down” by Tom Petty. The lights in the arena dim as the pyro goes off in the ring. Steve Johnson comes down to the roar of the crowd.)
LINKS: “And now the champion… Standing at six foot three and weighing in at 230 pounds …. Hailing from Columbus, Ohio … the MAN WHO ENDED THE TITLED REIGN OF JARED WELLS ……. STEVE …… JOHNSON!”
(Huge pops from the crowd as Johnson comes out with King Krusher and Johnson lifts the championship up in the air. SFX: Bell rings.)
JACOBS: “Steve Johnson and Peter File meet eye to eye in the center of the ring and an agitated Peter File is pointing to King Krusher and cursing Steve Johnson out. PETER FILE GOES TO PUNCH STEVE JOHNSON BUT HE BLOCKS THE PUNCH! STEVE JOHNSON FIRES BACK AND HE CHOPS HIM ACROSS THE CHEST!”
MARX: “They heard that one all the way up in the rafters.”
JACOBS: “PETER FILE FIRES BACK WITH A CHOP OF HIS OWN AND NOW JOHNSON AND FILE ARE EXCHANGING CHOPS BACK AND FORTH AND THEY ARE RIPPING THE HELL OUT OF EACH OTHER'S OTHER CHESTS!”
MARX: “You don't need to throw a punch to prove that you are tough, they are going to do it through wrestling.”
JACOBS: “Johnson is backing File back towards the corner with the chops.... JOHSNON THROWS A CHOP AND FILE CATCHES THE ARM AND TAKES HIM DOWN WITH AN ARMDRAG TAKDOWN!”
“NOT” WATERS: “Quick thinking like that by File and he'll be the new champ.”
JACOBS: “Johnson gets back up and he charges File with a clothesline... FILE DUCKS AND HE GRAB JOHNSON'S ARM AND LOCKS ON A CHICKENWING!”
MARX: “Johnson is a wrestler and if he doesn't have use of his arms, it makes it awfully hard to grapple.”
JACOBS: “Johnson tries to fire back with an elbow but Peter File moves out of the way.... JOHNSON FIRES BACK AGAIN BUT THIS TIME PETER FILE DUCKS AND LETS GO....PETER FILE KICKS JOHNSON IN THE GUT AND HE PICKS UP AND NAILS JOHNSON WITH A SHOULDER BREAKER!”
MARX: “Peter File is systematically taking apart the arm and shoulder of Johnson.”
“NOT” WATERS: “This obviously wasn't the match Johnson was expecting going in.”
JACOBS: “Peter File climbs onto the back of Johnson and he locks in the Full Nelson Camel Clutch and he is putting pressure on both the shoulders and lower back of Johnson. The ref is checking to see if Johnson wants to give up but he is repeatedly saying no.”
MARX: “Johnson is not going to give up. He didn't chase Jared Wells for so long to give up the title. Johnson is going to either have to be knocked out or surprised with a pin in order to be beaten.”
“NOT” WATERS: “All it takes is an awkward fall or three seconds.”
JACOBS: “Johnson is trying to extend his legs out to try to break the hold... HE IS CLOSE BUT HE ISN'T THERE YET!”
MARX: “Wrestling is a game of inches.”
“NOT” WATERS: “Especially when you are in there with Peter File...”
JACOBS: “Johnson is getting close to the ropes.... FILE BREAKS THE HOLD AND HE PULLS HIM BY THE ARM OF THE DAMAGED RIGHT SHOULDER BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING!”
MARX: “When the arm is on the verge of being popped out, that hurts like a dickens. He is position him for something, I just don't know what, but he is leaving him on his back.”
JACOBS: “FILE IS GOING UP TO THE TOP ROPE.... IT APPEARS HE IS GOING TO GO FOR A MOONSAULT AND DRIVE THOSE KNEES RIGHT INTO THE SHOULDER BLADE OF JOHNSON!”
“NOT” WATERS: “COME ON FILE!”
JACOBS: “FILE FLIES OFF THE TOP WITH THE MOONSAULT AND JOHNSON JUST MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND FILE'S KNEES CRASH INTO THE MAT!”
MARX: “So many wrestlers over the years have seriously damaged their knees by doing moonsaults, some even need need to get knee replacements later in life.”
JACOBS: “Johnson gets up and he grabs the leg of File... HE REPEATEDLY SMASHES THE KNEE INTO THE MAT FURTHERING THE DAMAGE!”
“NOT” WATERS: “This is going to ground Peter File from going for any more big top rope moves for the rest of the match because it is going to be awfully hard for him to perch on the top rope with his knees killing him.”
JACOBS: “Steve Johnson finally stops... AND HE LOCKS ON THE ANKLE LOCK! PETER FILE IS SCREAMING IN PAIN!”
MARX: “If Johnson knows what is good for him, he wouldn't let this go.”
JACOBS: “PETER FILE IS TRYING TO ESCAPE BUT THE LOOK OF PAIN IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE... JOHNSON IS HOLDING ONTO THAT BOOT TIGHT.... GOOD GOD, HE RIPPED PETER FILE'S FOOT RIGHT OFF!”
MARX: “No, no, no... File's boot must have been loose because the boot came off in his hand.”
“NOT” WATERS: “That is an awfully good break for Peter File.”
JACOBS: “PETER FILE IS QUICKLY CRAWLING TOWARDS THE ROPES AND HE IS TRYING TO ESCAPE OUT OF THE RING! King Krusher moves in front of File and he shakes his finger...”
MARX: “With the way these two have been trading holds so far, this one should stay in the ring.”
JACOBS: “Peter File is using the ropes to help himself get back up.... JOHNSON CHARGES AND HE SWINGS THAT BOOT RIGHT AT THE HEAD OF PETER FILE.... PETER FILE DUCKS!”
MARX: “Wrestling boots have hard soles. If you get hit in the head with one of those, it is going to knock you batty.”
JACOBS: “Johnson loses his balance off the swing..... PETER FILE HITS HIM WITH A REVERSE BULLDOG! PETER FILE HOOKS THE LEG AND THE REF GOES DOWN FOR THE COUNT! 1----------------- 2------ JOHNSON GETS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES!”
MARX: “We were less than one second away from having a new BAD World Heavyweight Champion.”
JACOBS: “A bloody Peter File reaches down and he grabs his boot.... FILE MOUNTS JOHNSON AND HE IS REPEATEDLY HITTING JOHNSON RIGHT IN THE HEAD WITH IT AND HE BUSTS JOHNSON OPEN RIGHT OVER THE EYE!”
“NOT” WATERS: “Retribution for King Krusher's attack earlier...”
MARX: “Krusher is trying to encourage Johnson right now, beating and all...”
JACOBS: “Peter File picks Johnson up by the hair up off the mat.... JOHNSON GOES FOR A SMALL PACKAGE! 1--------- 2--------- JOHNSON IS TOO CLOSE TO THE ROPES SO THE REF IS MAKING HIM BREAK IT!”
MARX: “You always have to be conscious of where you are in that ring because it makes all the difference in the world.”
“NOT” WATERS: “It is hard to pay attention when you are bleeding and you are basically a one legged man.”
JACOBS: “JOHNSON CHARGES FILE AFTER THE BREAK... FILE DUCKS DOWN AND HITS HIM WITH A BACK BODY DROP!”
MARX: “Johnson was a little too eager to try to put him away right there.”
“NOT” WATERS: “Was it me or did Johnson sound like he cracked his head?”
JACOBS: “File picks up Johnson for what looks like a Fisherman Suplex... HE HITS HIM WITH THE DDT AND HE IS IN THE DEAD CENTER OF THE RING!”
MARX: “File needs to make the cover here!”
JACOBS: “FILE THROWS HIS BODY ON TOP OF JOHNSON! THE REF GOES DOWN TO COUNT! 1------------------ 2--------- JOHNSON KICKS OUT AND PETER FILE LANDS AWKWARDLY ON HIS OWN KNEE AND FILE IS GRABBING HIS LEG!”
“NOT” WATERS: “He may have separated his knee cap on that one. Peter File is a tough competitor, but he looks like he is going through sheer agony right now.”
JACOBS: “Johnson is calling for his new finisher! FOR THE LOVE OF THE FANS!”
MARX: “I saw this in training and I've only seen maybe one or two other guys do the move better and they are retired now.”
JACOBS: “Johnson tries to drag File but Johnson's arm hurts way too much from the damage done earlier and Johnson is cursing up a form.... HE IS CALLING FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME!”
MARX: “This is why it pays to have two finishers!”
JACOBS: “HE IS GOING FOR A VARATION OF THE FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME FULL NELSON FRONT RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP WITH ONLY ONE ARM TO PROTECT HIS BAD ARM.... HE HAS IT LOCKED ON.... HE HITS IT ON PETER FILE!”
MARX: “Johnson is a thinking man's wrestler. He can change plans on the fly.”
“NOT” WATERS: “But is this variation enough to beat Peter File?”
JACOBS: “AN EXHAUSTED JOHNSON LIES ON TOP OF PETER FILE! THE REF GOES DOWN TO COUNT! 1--------------- 2------- CRUCIFIX ON JOHNSON AND FILE HAS BOTH SHOULDERS DOWN! THE REF COUNTS JOHNSON! 1------- 2------- JOHNSON KICKS OUT AND HE YELLS OUT IN AGONY!”
MARX: “I think separated his shoulder trying to retain the title there.”
“NOT” WATERS: “The ref really should stop this and award the belt to File.”
JACOBS: “A hobbled and bloody Peter File gets up and he picks Johnson off the mat.... JOHNSON HITS PETER FILE WITH A KNEE LIFT IN THE FACE! Johnson winces through the pain and he hooks the arms of Peter File.... JOHNSON HITS THE DOUBLE ARM DDT!”
MARX: “He drove his head right into the mat.”
JACOBS: “Johnson hooks the leg with his good arm and goes for another cover! 1--------- 2------- 3~!”
LINKS: “THE WINNER OF THE MATCH..... AND STILL BAD WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION.... STEVE JOHNSON!”
JACOBS: “King Krusher is coming into the ring and he raises the good arm of Steve Johnson! Steve Johnson falls down in pain and exhaustion and the ref is calling for a stretcher to help out of here!”
MARX: “Johnson gave all he had and then some, I'm sure he is going to be okay though, he is made of tough stock being from Ohio State.”
“NOT” WATERS: “Look at the way Peter File is looking over at King Krusher, he is giving him the evil eye.”
JACOBS: “King Krusher is yelling at him to get the hell out of here and a hobbled and bloody Peter File is grinning from ear to ear.”
“NOT” WATERS: “This match really could have gone either way. Peter File will have his day.”
MARX: “I'm sure King Krusher would love to give Peter File another beating.”
JACOBS: “Folks, we have to take a commercial break while the paramedics help Johnson to the back… the first half of the show is over, thanks for joining us everyone and when we comeback, Natalie Newman and Dean Julius will be joining you as it seems they have finally made it to the arena! Still to come …the PRODIGY© Classic Xtreme championship match and the battle to determine who will be the SOLE New ERA World Heavyweight champion. Marx, Vic, and I will see you at Almost Live coming from Starkville, Mississippi!”
“NOT” WATERS: “Thank god we can finally get out of this hell hole.”
