Gellar: Hello everyone and welcome to PWF Defiance 2!!!!
Blackbird: It's a big night for Defiance, I spoke with a lot of fans after last weeks show, and they were disappointed. Big Dave has promised us that tonight's show will show everyone what Defiance is capable of.
Gellar: Indeed he has, and we're going straight into the action with an Extreme Title match, as Suicide is scheduled to take on the Extreme Champion, Hanibal.
Blackbird: Hanibal has been on a roll since before the Rumble, I believe he's on 4 straight wins, although I have do double check that one.
Gellar: Well, let's see if he can make it five out of five tonight.
Blackbird: I should clear something up while we're here. Because everything on Defiance is basically No Holds barred, there no longer has to be a gimmick attached to the Extreme Title. They can add one if they like, but it is unnecessary. But pretty much everything goes in this match, so we'll never know what to expect.

The lights go out as an air raid siren goes off. After a few seconds, the "Empire Strikes Back" theme starts. After playing for a few moments, it cuts off as pyros explode everywhere and "Get Up Again" by Flaw hits the loud speakers. Out from behind the curtain steps Emperor Suicide. He has a cocky smile on his face as he is ready to fight. He slowly climbs into the ring and awaits his opponents.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing from Brooklyn, New York, weighing 247lbs, SUICIDE!!!!!
"Beautiful People" surges through the arena PA and the fans burst into a loud chorus of boos. Hanibal steps through the curtains rubbing his goatee. He raises his arms to his sides for a second, smirks and continues down the ramp. He arrogantly walks up the steps and onto the apron. He gives one last look at the crowd before flinging himself over the top rope.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing, from Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, weighing 226lbs, HANIBAL
Report: Suicide starts things off by rushing at Hanibal catching him off guard with a tackle that takes Hanibal to the ground. Suicide punches Hanibal in the face and Hanibal grabs a hold of Suicide and he Hanibal now gets on top of Suicide and Hanibal punches Suicide several times in the face. Hanibal and Suicide roll around on the ring and they keep punching each other once one gets on top of the other. Suicide kicks Hanibal off of him and he gets to his feet first and as soon as Hanibal gets to his feet he runs at him and clotheslines him down to the mat. Hanibal gets back up and Suicide runs at him again and clotheslines him back down to the mat. Suicide picks Hanibal up and he hits his chest several times with a couple of stiff hard chops. Suicide grabs a hold of Hanibal and he whips him into the turnbuckles and then he runs at him and drives his knee into Hanibal's stomach. Suicide props Hanibal back up into the corner and he hits his chest again with several hard chops. Suicide picks Hanibal up and he puts him on the top rope and he climbs up to the top rope with him too and he goes to get him in a top rope belly to belly suplex but Hanibal punches him in the face and then he jumps into the air and clotheslines Suicide off of the top rope and down onto the canvas. Both men are down on the mat and out of it and the ref starts his ten count. 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7...
Gellar: A very early double knockdown.
Blackbird: These two have certainly cranked up the intensity for this match, they seem eager to do some damage.
Hanibal gets up to his feet and he stops the 10 count from reaching the full 10 count. He walks over to Suicide and he picks him up and off the mat and then he slams him back down to the mat with a snap suplex. Hanibal grabs the arm of Suicide and he twists it and puts him in a reverse arm bar. Hanibal pulls on Suicide's arm and applies pressure to it. Suicide screams out in pain as Hanibal puts on the pressure but he does not give. The ref gets down and asks him if he gives up but he just shakes his head no and he crawls with all his strength to the ropes and breaks up the hold. Hanibal gets up to his feet and he picks Suicide up with him and he kicks him in the stomach and then he puts his head in between his legs and he grabs his body and he lifts him up. Hanibal walks around in circles allowing all of the blood to rush to Suicide's head. Then finally he drops him down to the mat with the stalling piledriver. Suicide's head bounces off of the mat as soon as it hits from the huge impact and then his whole body bounces into the air and then crashes back down onto the mat. Hanibal covers him and the ref gets down and counts. Hanibal picks Suicide's head up and off the mat and then he slams it back down to the mat and he repeats that several more times and the crowd cheer him on as he does it. Hanibal picks Suicide up and he gets him up to his feet and then he whips him in to the ropes and as Suicide comes back he connects with a spinning back breaker. Hanibal whips Suicide in to the corner but Suicide reverses it and he sends Hanibal into the turnbuckles. Suicide runs over to him and he dropkicks him in the face and Hanibal falls forward and crashes down to the mat. Suicide picks him back up and props him against the ropes again. Suicide hits him with several chops and then he picks him up and puts him on the top rope. Suicide gets him in the top rope suplex position but he turns around and looks like he is going to suplex him to the outside of the ring. The crowd cheers for what they expect to be a top rope suplex to the outside, and indeed it is as both men coming crashing down on to the unforgiving cement floors. Suicide gets up to his feet and he grabs on to the announce table and he pulls himself up to his feet and he is dazed and confused as he looks around. Suicide goes over to Hanibal and he picks him up and lifts him over his head and then drops him face first down onto the announce table. Hanibal head bounces off the table and snaps back and then he lands on the ground next to the table. The ref can't stop the match but he urges Suicide to keep it in the ring and Suicide just pushes him to the side. Suicide grabs a monitor from the table and he waits for Hanibal to get to his feet.
Blackbird: Hanibal better call a surgeon.
Gellar: What for?
Blackbird: He's going to need Plastic surgery if Suicide connects with this shot.
As soon as Hanibal gets up to his feet Suicide runs at him and tries to hit him with the monitor but Hanibal drops down to the ground and gets Suicide in a drop toe hold and Suicide falls down to the ground with the monitor in his hands and as he lands his face smacks off of the monitor and he rolls off of it and down to the ground next to it. Hanibal grabs the monitor and he stands of Suicide and he raises it high into the air and then he drives it down into the ribs of Suicide. Suicide folds up as soon as he hits him and Hanibal throws the monitor down at him and it hits him and bounces off of him. Hanibal goes under the ring and he rummages through some things and he comes out with a trashcan of all things. Suicide gets back up to one knee and Hanibal raises the trash can high in the air and he acts like he is going to slam the trash can down on Suicide head again but Suicide connects with a low blow and Hanibal drops the trash can down to the ground. Suicide wipes his forehead in relief and he picks the trashcan up and he hits Hanibal in the head with the blunt side. Hanibal falls backwards, but he stays on his feet and Suicide puts the trashcan down and picks Hanibal up in a powerslam position but he turns it into a fall away slam and Hanibal crashes down on top of the trashcan. Suicide grabs Hanibal by the head and he tosses him back into the ring and then he walks over to steel barricade and he grabs a steel chair that is resting against it and Suicide tosses the chair into the ring and then he rolls in. Hanibal is getting to his feet and Suicide grabs Hanibal and he whips him into the ropes and Suicide runs at Hanibal as Hanibal is running back at him and they both connect with a clothesline taking them both down to the ground. Suicide gets up to his feet and he shakes off the cobwebs and as he is doing so, Hanibal wearily gets up to his feet and he runs at Suicide and Suicide picks him up and he slams him down to the mat with a vicious spinebuster. Suicide gets up to his feet and is receiving a huge second wind. Suicide grabs Hanibal and he pulls him up to his feet and he delivers an atomic drop and Hanibal is still handing keeling over holding his lower extremities and Suicide runs at him and knocks him down to the mat with a clothesline. Suicide picks Hanibal up and over his head in the gorilla press slam position and then he drops him and catches him and slams him down to the mat with a power slam. He hooks the leg and the ref goes down to make the count. At the count of 2 Hanibal is able to get his shoulder up breaking the 3 count and continuing the match and he pops right back up to his feet and as Suicide gets up he runs at him and attempts a clothesline but Suicide ducks and when Hanibal turns around he catches him in a t-bone suplex. Hanibal crashes to the mat and he pops right back up and runs at Suicide again and Suicide connects with a belly-to-belly suplex. Hanibal pops right back up from that to and he runs at Suicide again and Suicide flips him over with a japanese arm drag. Suicide picks him up and he gets him in a front standing chin lock and then he just drops down to the mat smashing Hanibal's face into the canvas. Suicide goes over to the chair he brought into the ring earlier and he picks it up and as soon as Hanibal gets up to his feet and Suicide clocks him in the face with a vicious chair shot. Hanibal crashes down to the mat and Suicide gets the crowd pumped by taunting Hanibal. Suicide grabs Hanibal by his hair and he pulls him up to his feet and Suicide connects with the Mass Suicide (Rock Bottom). The crowd cheers as Suicide seems to have the match won. Suicide goes for the cover but just then Splinter rushes down to ringside with a chair in hand.
Blackbird: Here comes the Hardcore Chair Swinging Freak, Splinter.
Gellar: He and Hanibal have been at each other's throats for weeks, and he and Suicide don't exactly get along well either.
Blackbird: Looks like Suicide can't be bothered to wait until Splinter gets in the ring, he's going out to meet him.
Suicide sees him and he grabs a chair as well and Suicide goes to the outside to meet Splinter half way and Suicide puts his chair up and Splinter hits that chair back into the face of Suicide and Suicide falls to the ground. Splinter taunts Suicide to get up and as Suicide gets up to his feet Splinter hits him with a devastating chair shot to the back as Suicide goes down to his knee's. In the ring Hanibal is just getting up to his feet and realizing what is going on. Splinter goes to hit Suicide with another chair shot but Suicide hits Splinter with a low blow and Suicide rolls into the ring avoiding another chair shot by Splinter. As Suicide gets into the ring Hanibal turns Suicide around and kicks him in the stomach and then delivers a DDT. Hanibal picks up the hurting Suicide and he delivers the Ego-Trip (Fisherman's DDT) and then he follows it up with a quick cover. The ref goes down and makes the 3 count. The ref rushes over and grabs Hanibal his belt but as soon as Hanibal gets awarded the victory Splinter runs into the ring with the chair and he swings at Hanibal but Hanibal ducks and he gets out of the ring as fast as he can and he runs down the aisle all while holding the Extreme Title high in the air. Suicide finally gets up from the Ego-Trip but Splinter cuts him down to size with another chair shot square in between his eyes. Splinter looks at Hanibal who is all the way near the entrance way and Splinter points to him as if to say he's next.
Gellar: Hanibal retains the Extreme Title, but things are most definitely not over between all three of these men.
Blackbird: That was chaotic, a great way to kick off the show.
The scene cuts to the squared circle. Inside the ring is a large table and 3 chairs, 2 at either end and one to the side. Suddenly the arena goes completely black and a shady voice utters very slowly the word "BIG" then the UltraTron shows a huge concrete block, as a big "B" made from steel slams into it, then an "I" and then the "G" and fireworks erupt from all over the arena, the ring, the ramp-way, the security rails, everywhere as the main chorus to "Cochise" by Audioslave kicks in and Big Dave is raised onto the Ramp-way via a sunken platform.
He is dressed a very sharp-black Gucci suit with his long golden locks tied back into a pony tail and wearing his trade-mark shades he struts his way to the ring. He jumps onto the ring apron and then walks over the top rope and grabs a mic and "Cochise" begins to fade out.
Big Dave:- Ladies and Gentleman, tonight I will sign 2 of the PWF's hottest superstars to a match to end all matches. I will not tolerate the petulance of these 2 any further, ripping up my show, sneak attacking each other at every opportunity, that is not the Defiance way. Considering one is a former PWF Champion and the other is the fastest raising superstar in the PWF I expect them to go head to head........ and that is what they are going to do. Matt Van Dam and Jason Hunt will meet at Defiance's first Pay Per View, and right now we are going to sign the contract for this match in front of the whole world for everyone to see.
So without any further adiou, I'd like to welcome Matt Van Dam to the ring!
"Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" By Dry Kill Logic hits and the arena lights go out and neon green spotlights begin circling the ring in fast rotation before they all meet in the center of the ring and then shoot up the run way to see Matt Van Dam dressed in denim jeans and a leather biker jacket along with Jennifer Van Dam as they begin to make their way to the ring. Matt Van Dam escorts JVD by the hand up the ring steps and then pulls up the middle rope so his wife can enter the ring, but she slowly moves between the ropes exposing her shapely ass to the crowd in a very deliberate manner, a few ringside fans go crazy at the site! MVD is quick to water down this small ovation as he steps in the way of their view and waves a finger at the fans and mouths the words "tut tut tut". He enters the ring and walks right up to Big Dave and looks him in the eye!
MVD:- I think that Microphone is getting bored in your hands Dave!
MVD quickly swipes the mic from the hands of Big Dave and walks over the ring ropes to address the crowd
MVD:- Before that silly little retard comes out here I got a few things to say about what went down last week. Jason! You know damn well you cannot even attempt to emulate what I have achieved in the last 2 years in the PWF. We both came here in under the same pretences, we both made a name for ourselves by getting under the skin of the so called upper-card players in the PWF, but just remember who was the leader and who was the follower Hunt.
Jason Hunt could never mastermind the dominance that the gWo possessed over the PWF like MVD did, Jason Hunt couldn't go through hell to become PWF World Champion like Matt Van Dam did. Ultimately you are not as good and never will be as good as M..V..D (2 thumb pose).
This is why Jason Hunt must resort to cheap shots and well-elaborated sneak attacks. You know you can never get the better of MVD one on one. Jason...... you put me a mother fucking table you little piece of shit, no one ever...........EVER does that to MVD and believe me you'll be reaping what you sow come the PPV Hunt because.........
Just then "Do You Call My Name" by RA hits cutting off Matt Van Dam in mid speech. The crowd automatically goes into a booing frenzy as Jason Hunt pops out from the back and walks down to the ring with a horde of officials escorting him along. Jason sees a "Mike Hunt" sign and he walks over to the fan and smiles and then flips him off. Hunt then gets into the ring with the officials and he asks for a mic and is given one. Hunt gets ready to speak.
Jason Hunt: Matt Van....
But as soon as Hunt opens up his mouth Big Dave cuts him off to lay down the law.
Big Dave: Jason, you have no business at all coming out here interuppting Matt Van Dam. But since you are out here, it makes it a little easier to do this. Oh, ref's...you can all go to the backstage area now. You're not needed.
Hunt has a confused look on his face as the fans cheer while Big Dave takes a moment to pause while the referee's leave.
Big Dave: Now, you probably wonder why it's easier for me to have both of you out here at he same time? Well, I am sick of you two attacking each other day after day. So, I have you both here today to sign a contract to face each other at Defiance's first Pay Per View!
The crowd erupts into cheers as MVD points to Hunt with a smile on his face and Hunt has the usual confident cocky grin on his face.
Big Dave: But there's a stipulation with this contract, it's a "No Contact" clause. Meaning, if either one of you two touch other unless other wise contracted to do so, the person who commits the act will face a lengthy suspension.
Jason Hunt: So if I make fun of Van Dam over there, like I normally do. Which it's so easy to do, I mean just look at him, but I hit a nerve on that loser and he snaps and attacks me...he gets suspended?
Big Dave: Yes, that's what "No Contact" means.
Jason Hunt: Oh...this is going to be good...real good.
Big Dave: Just a warning Jason, don't try and provoke him.
Big Dave puts out the clipboard with the contract on it for either man to sign first and Jason Hunt quickly snatches it out of Big Dave's hand.
Jason Hunt: I'll be glad to sign this, it's no problem at all if I can't touch Matt till the Pay Per View. I've gotten the better of him enough already. How many times can you embarrass a guy before it starts to get old?
Hunt glances over at Matt Van Dam who stares emotionless at Jason Hunt the whole time.
Jason Hunt: Dave, got a pen? What kind of professional are you when you hand me a contract but have no pen for me to sign it with? I'm not Terrell Owens here, I don't carry a sharpie on me to autograph stuff for my JasonHolics.
Big Dave looks at Hunt with a displeased expression on his face and he hands over a pen to Jason Hunt who takes it and quickly signs the contract.
Jason Hunt: Easy as that, come the Pay Per View Matty boy, you're mine.
Hunt shoves the clipboard back into Big Dave's chest who gives Hunt a look as if he was warning him and then Big Dave walks over to Matt Van Dam and gives him the clipboard.
Jason Hunt: It's not that hard Matt, any scribble will do just fine.
Matt Van Dam stares down Hunt as he signs the contract. MVD hands over the clipboard to Big Dave as Big Dave picks up the mic.
Big Dave: And there you have it ladies and gentlemen, Jason Hunt versus Matt Van Dam at the first Defiance Pay Per View!
The crowd roars in delight over the match that was made and Big Dave doesn't bother to look at the contract he just puts it under his arm and claps along with the crowd.
Jason Hunt: With Jason Hunt kicking Matt Van Dam's ass, this is truly going to be a Pay Per View all you JasonHolics out there can't miss.
Matt Van Dam is still staring down Hunt like a lion about to pounce on it's prey.
Jason Hunt: Seeing that I've gotten exactly what I've wanted, I think it's time I get out of this shit hole and back to something less....oh I don't know...dirty. Oh Matt, I'll be seeing you at the Pay Per View.
The fans unleash a fury of boo's upon Hunt as Jason Hunt goes to leave the ring, but Matt Van Dam runs over and he tackles Jason Hunt down to the ground and MVD gets on top of Hunt in a mounted position and delivers crushing blows to the skull of Jason Hunt. Big Dave runs over and tries to pull Matt Van Dam off of Jason Hunt and while Big Dave distracts MVD for a split second, Hunt rolls out of the ring and he lands down on the floor. Hunt crawls up the aisle trying to get back up to his feet as the crowd cheers for Matt Van Dam. Big Dave gets in the face of Van Dam and looks furious.
Big Dave: What is wrong with you?!?!? It hasn't even been a minute since the contract was signed and you've already broken it! I have no choice but to uphold the contract and suspend you!
Matt Van Dam seems unusually calm for a man that has just gotten suspended, but he picks up the clipboard with the contract on it and he shows it to Big Dave.
MVD: News flash Dave, I never signed the contract. You can't suspend me for anything.
The camera then focuses in on the contract to reveal that only Jason Hunt had indeed signed the contract. Big Dave looks on in amazement as the crowd is in an uproar now that MVD isn't suspended.
MVD: The match is on, I'll be seeing YOU at the Pay Per View Hunt.
Van Dam grabs the contract and he signs it real quick and tosses the document up into the air as "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" by Dry Kill Logic hits and the crowd continues to cheer on MVD while he leaves the ring.
Golgotha was walking around backstage with his bodyguard. The two seem to be in the middle of a conversation as we join them and Golgotha is mad.
Golgotha: "I beat Parish last week...the one man who was my main competition to the Laws Belt! And this week, I don't even have a match! What the real kicker is, Law has a shot at Sabres Title! I'm 10x more talented than that oriental bum."
Before the Bodyguard has a chance to respond, they bump into Zion Crest who overshadows Golgotha. The Bodyguard looks like he is about ready to separate the two, but Golgotha raises his hand and tells him to stop.
Golgotha: "Well, well, well, what do we have here? So we meet again Zion. I'll put it blatantly for you Zion. don't worry, I forgive you for your comments this past week. You are confused, I plan on helping you out. Last week, I gave you the chance to join me. To form alliance. Together we could dominate this federation. With my skill and your...well, size, no one could stop either of us. Imagine the great things we could do for God and the things God would do through us. The Hardcore Christian and the mountain of a man. My offer still stands. You owe it to God to accept it. The God who took you out of the pits of despair and brought you here. Hopefully this week, you'll be smart enough to speak up and accept my offer."
Golgotha extends his hand and waits for Zion to shake it. When Zion doesn't, Golgotha repeats the gesture, this time a little more aggressively. Then, Zion slaps Golgothas hand away. The Bodyguard gets up between the to, making sure there isn't and altercation. Golgotha calls him off and Lets Zion say his piece.
Zion pauses and looks down at Golgotha as he speaks. The Messenger of Destruction raises a hand and strokes the goatee for a moment as the lost prophet continues to talk. When it's over Zion smiles and looks back to Golgotha.
Zion: You misunderstand me Mr. Golgotha. At no point did I say I would not team with you.
Zion leans down a little
Zion: I said that I would not join with you, even if death itself were the consequence!
Zion shoves past Golgotha, speaking to him as he walks away, not once turning back around.
Zion: Your own beliefs lend you too strict a view of above. Who are we to GIVE a name to the higher power. I refer to him, to it, as my lord, because it is. IT saved me, and gave me purpose. Am I so blasphemous that I would dare to try and attribute a name to this power? I think not. Mr. Golgotha, you do not understand myself, or my past.
He stops at an intersection and continues talking
Zion: Life is a twist in fates design, the difference between greatness and victim are nothing more than a single fold somewhere along your lifeline. When were you granted the right to be judge, jury, and executioner Mr Golgotha? Your vision is not clear because of these muddled thoughts of greatness.
Zion: I believe you should take a step back and focus on what is true and before you. Long ago I too saw myself as an instrument of vengeance and cleansing. In my haste I became the very thing you now descend to. No Mr Golgotha, I will not join you. And I will have nothing more to do with your plans. My previous statement stands and I warn you of its earnest danger. I am indeed the Dark Saviour. And I walk beside my mirror, the Messenger of Destruction. But let it be known I do not pass judgement, nor do I choose punishment. Soon you will learn this truth.
Zion stops and turns around to look at Golgotha one more time
Zion: When you stand before me, you too will have the choice. You will peer into the mirror and decide which of my roles you wish to meet. Let your false idols and foggy beliefs lift you onto their shoulders, Mr. Golgotha. Because truth is a light, and you shall soon see it.
With that said Zion turns and walks away down a hall, disappearing from sight.
Gellar: Lot of things to talk about all of a sudden, we'll deal with what just happened first.
Blackbird: Golgotha seems determined to try and bring Zion into his train of thought, but Zion appears to already have a set of beliefs, and they seem to be totally opposite to those of Golgotha.
Gellar: I agree, it's like trying to convince a Baseball Player that he plays Basketball.
Blackbird: Interesting analogy, but it's close enough.
Gellar: And of course, we have the contract signing.
Blackbird: Big Dave making a smart move by including the No Contact clause, although MVD pulled a nifty swerve on him.
Gellar: Which the boss didn't look too happy about.
Blackbird: Not a whole lot he can do really, he didn't break the contract, as he hadn't signed it yet.
Gellar: Age old trick, but I guess it still works.
Blackbird: Jason Hunt certainly fell for it.
Gellar: Well, enough chatter, back to the in-ring action, as Zion Crest faces off against Grimm, who will be looking to come back after a defeat last week at the hands of Hanibal.

The arena darkens as "Burning Inside" by Fear Factory & Static X begins to play. Dark and disturbing images play in slow motion on the UltraTron and then suddenly the stage explodes in flames. The flames continue to burn as Zion seems to walk straight through them. The Dark Saviour slowly makes his way down to the ring. The flames continuing to burn behind him.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing from New York, weighing 399lbs, the "Dark Saviour" ZION CREST!!!
The Lights Turn in the PWF arena, "Disposable Teens" by Marilyn Manson begins to play and then as soon as the music kicks in, a red strobe light starts flashing on and on. As The Drums kick in on the song red pyros explode from the stage and a red mist comes up from the titan tron. The Strobe light gets more intense as the words Grimm and The Mystery!! continuously flash on and off the Titantron. Grimm walks out on the stage area with a water bottle in hand. Grimm takes a sip of the water on the stage and spits it into the air. As he spits in the air as huge pyros explode behind him and rise up to the ceiling to the arena. Grimm runs down to the ring and slides in where he bounces on the ropes
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing from Pickering, Onatario, weighing 240lbs, GRIMM!!.
Report: Grimm and Zion circle each other, Grimm talking smack while Zion just stares at him. The two men go into a tie up, Zion is overpowering Grimm easily and pushes him back onto the ropes. Grimm struggles out of the tie up and pushes Zion into the corner where he starts to hammer on Crest with a series of knife edge chops and right hands, Zion just seems to take all the punishment. Zion then pushes Grimm out of the corner, grabs him by his shoulders and chucks him violently into the corner. Zion then shows Grimm how it's done. He mixes up chops and overhead hammer style punches, which eventually smash Grimm down into a slumped position. Crest then starts to stomp the hell out of Grimm, landing a hard series of stomps to his chest and gut that eventually put Grimm on the mat. Zion then pulls Grimm out of the corner, grabs him by his shirt and throws him high into the air, Grimm comes down on his back with an almighty crash. Grimm sits up holding his back in pain, Zion comes over and lands a few more hard stomps that put Grimm down on the mat. Zion then rolls out of the ring and throws the ring announcer off his chair, he throws the chair in and rolls in himself. He picks the chair up, Grimm gets onto all fours and starts trying to pull himself up. Zion smashes the chair across his back. Zion then slams the chair down, pulls Grimm up and then hits a hard sidewalk slam onto the steel chair, Grimm rolls away holding his back in pain and grimacing.
Blackbird: Here we go, things are picking up.
Gellar: Everyone is starting to get the hang of the permanent No Holds Barred stipulations here on Defiance, these matches are gonna start getting very violent.
Zion covers Grimm, on the chair 1 Grimm kicks up and out of the pinfall attempt, just before the count of two. Zion grabs the chair from under Grimm's body, he then places the chair in the corner, leaning off the bottom turnbuckle. He pulls Grimm up and goes to kick him in the gut but Grimm catches it. He then dragon screws Zion into the chair that is stood up in the corner, Zion's weight crashes into it and it bends horribly out of place. Zion lays in the destroyed chair as Grimm starts to pull himself up holding his back in pain. Grimm rolls out of the ring and holds up the ring apron cover. He pulls out a kendo stick, which he throws into the ring, followed by a stop sign. He then pulls out a table and slides it into the ring, the PWF fans go crazy, they want to see something extreme happen. Grimm sets the table up near one of the turnbuckles, he then grabs the kendo stick and beckons Zion up, Crest starts to pull himself up from the harsh dragon screw, Grimm cracks the kendo stick across his gut, and then over the back of Zion's head. Crest goes down holding his gut and cranium. Grimm pulls Zion up and rolls him onto the table, he then lands a few kendo stick shots across Zion's face before discarding the weapon. Grimm then climbs up the turnbuckle to a huge cheer from the crowd.
Gellar: What is Grimm gonna do here?
Blackbird: I don't know Eric, my guess is something crazy.
Gellar: Oh, nice and descriptive there.
Grimm taunts Zion and then leaps, hitting the Suicide Splash (Praying Taunt Followed By Top Rope Body Splash), driving Zion straight through the table to a massive roar from the PWF fans. The chant of 'GRIMM! GRIMM! GRIMM!' starts to go up around the arena as he crawls out of the table wreck Grimm then drags Zion out of the wrecked table and covers him 1 2 Zion powers out, somehow throwing Grimm off him. Grimm pulls himself up and grabs the kendo stick again, he beckons Zion up to his feet. To his shock Zion starts to get up pretty much instantly. Grimm looks a little bit worried now, he is staring at the kendo stick wondering if its gonna get the job done. Zion is up on his feet, Grimm swings the kendo stick but Crest catches it and yanks the cane out of Grimm's hand. Zion then starts to hammer on Grimm with shot after shot after shot, knocking him back. Zion throws the cane away, which is now broken in several places. Zion finally lays Grimm out brutally with a huge Redemption (Hard Lariat)! Zion then covers Grimm 1 2 3! NO! Grimm just about got his shoulder up.
Gellar: Did he kick out? Did he?
Blackbird: He did indeed. Only just though.
Zion looks quite angry now, he grabs the stop sign and starts to hammer away on Grimm's body. Zion Crest then slams the stop sign down, he pulls Grimm up and plants him with the Rancor (Sit-Out Powerbomb) onto the stop sign! Grimm arches his body upwards holding his spine in pain. Zion covers him, pushing Grimm's shoulders down onto the stop sign 1 2 3! NO! Grimm again just kicks out! Zion gets up, he appears to almost lose his temper, and he gets right in the referees face and insists that it was a three. Grimm is pulling himself up on the ring ropes. He goes over to grab Zion for the Fear Factor (Falling Reverse DDT) but Zion has it scouted and mule kicks Grimm. Golgotha is coming down the ramp with the golden bible, he looks like he's gonna try and help Crest. Zion then turns round and grabs Grimm, he hoists Grimm up and drills him into the stop sign with a sickening Destruction (Screwdriver)! Grimm looks to be out cold as Zion covers him 1 2 3!
Crest pulls himself up and looks at Golgotha as he rolls in the ring.
Gellar: Zion picks up the win, Golgotha came down to help, but Zion quite simply didn't need the help.
Blackbird: And Grimm took that horrible looking finisher of Zion's. He's out cold, he needs some medical attention.
Gellar: Who's this guy walking down the ramp?
Blackbird: Oh no, that's Johnny Lang, the PWF's most recent signing, and Grimm REALLY needs to wake up.
The crowd are puzzled as Johnny Lang rolls into the ring, he appears to be checking on Grimm, to see if he is okay.
Gellar: Looks like he's here to help Grimm.
Blackbird: Trust me, he's not here to help him.
Lang continues to check on Grimm, and then starts to give him Mouth to Mouth!!! Even though you can clearly see that Grimm is breathing.
Gellar: What the hell is Lang doing?
Blackbird: I feel sorry for Grimm, I really do.
Lang continues to give Grimm Mouth to Mouth until he sees real EMT's coming down to the ring, and then he stops and rolls out of the ring.
Blackbird: Grimm is going to be seriously pissed off when he sees what happened while he was out.
Gellar: I'm lost here.
Lang is backing away up the ramp, the EMT's climb into the ring and check on Grimm's condition. One of them puts some smelling salts under his nose and he suddenly jerks awake and sits up. He blinks his eyes a few times as they come back into focus. Lang heads through the entrance as replays of the Mouth to Mouth are shown on the Tron. Grimm sees them and a look of shock comes across his face, followed by rage. He gets to his feet, and then collapses back down, holding his head. He still looks pissed off with what he is seeing.
Blackbird: I told you, he would not be happy.
Gellar: I don't get this, who's Johnny Lang?
Blackbird: You'll find out soon enough.
Gellar: Welcome back folks, Blackbird has explained to be the situation regarding Johnny Lang, and well, let's just say that it's a bit of a shocker. I won't spoil the surprise for all of you though, that's if you haven't already guessed it.
Blackbird: Grimm will be going insane backstage, once he's recovered from that devastating move by Zion Crest.
Gellar: Anyway, the action continues on Defiance, as our beloved Matt Van Dam, is scheduled to take on Silas Parish.
Blackbird: Parish? Oh dear, I saw him drinking at the bar earlier, things don't look good for this match.
Gellar: He really needs to sort out his alcohol problem, it's not helping him in the slightest.
"Come out and Play" by The Offspring begins to play increasingly loud through the arena speakers, heralding the arrival of "Pitbull" Silas Parish. Several scenes of a pitbull on a chain, barking and straining to get loose, play on the TitanTron as the words SILAS PARISH slowly appear across the middle of the screen. Suddenly, a series of pyrotechnic explosions erupt down the right side of the ramp and back up the left side as Silas steps through the backstage curtain and into view. He pauses at the top of the ramp, his eyes locked on his opponent in the ring. He cracks his knuckles and makes sure the tape around his hands is tight, his gaze still locked on the ring. Then he begins to stalk forward. About halfway down the ramp he breaks into a run and slides into the ring under the bottom rope, quickly getting to his feet well before the bell rings.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing from Vancouver, Canada, SILAS PARISH.
"Snap your Fingers, Snap your neck" by Dry Kill Logic plays as MVD walks down the aisle, and poses, flexing his arms towards his head (RVD style). The Ultra-Tron bears the gWo logo and then shows clips of MVD striking opponents out with his Kendo Stick and finishing them the 5 star frog splash.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing, from Battlecreek, England, weighing 236lbs, "The Real F'n Show" MATT VAN DAM.
Report: Parish rushes in to open up the match with a quick barrage of right hands on MVD. Caught by surprise, MVD can do nothing but take the volley of punches and wait for an opening to reply. Parish gets MVD in the corner and delivers a few gut kicks and then goes for an irish whip, but MVD reverses and Parish crashes into the corner. MVD follows in and grabs Parish and then rolls backward and flips Parish over with a Monkey Flip. Parish gets up and MVD attacks him with a few Forearm thrusts and then he scoops Parish up and plants him with a Front Powerslam. MVD then rushes off the ropes and delivers a Somersault Leg Drop, he then goes for a cover. .1 ..2 Parish kicks out. MVD pulls Parish up and goes for a Vertical Suplex, but Parish escapes and lands behind him. He then pushes MVD into the ropes and knocks him down on the rebound with a standing Dropkick. Parish leaps up to the top rope and waits for MVD to stand, and then dives off to knock him down with a big Missile Dropkick. Parish scrambles over to make the cover. 1 2 . MVD kicks out safely. Parish pulls MVD up to his feet and then whips him towards the corner. He then charges in looking for a clothesline, but MVD sidesteps him and then after Parish has bounced chest first off the pads, he lifts him up from behind to deliver a Back Drop. Parish bounces straight back up, but MVD knocks him straight back down with a Spinning Heel Kick. Again Parish bounces straight back up, but MVD hooks him around the waist and then delivers The Sexiest Move (Spinning Belly to Back Suplex). MVD is about to go for the cover, when Parish rolls out of the ring, and out of MVD's way. Referee Duane Dibley stops MVD from following him out of the ring.
Gellar: Silas Parish isn't in great shape, not like he always used to be. Until he began to suffer from this drink problem, he was probably the fittest PWF Superstar you could find.
Blackbird: When you're his size, you need to be in the best condition possible, or your not going to have a chance.
Gellar: And right now, I don't think he has much of a chance of winning this contest.
On the outside, Parish catches his breath and gets to his feet, he then reaches under the ring and pulls out a trashcan, which is filled with various weapons. He tosses it into the ring, where it lands with a loud crash and spreads weapons around the ring. Parish then sees someone in the front row with a cup of beer, he tries to grab it off him. The guy moves backwards, angry that Parish is trying to steal from him, Parish dives for the beer, and goes over the top of the barricade. Suddenly everyone begins to move out of the way of Parish, and he looks worried, he turns around to face the ring, and sees MVD taking a running start before sailing over the top rope, clean over the barricade and crashing straight into him. The crowd begins a loud chant of "Holy Shit".
Gellar: Stunning move from MVD.
Blackbird: MVD puts life and limb on the line in the name of entertainment, never thought I'd say that about perhaps the most self-obsessed man in wrestling.
Gellar: Besides Sabre.
Blackbird: And Hunt . Can we just have a poll on who was the most self-obsessed member of the gWo?
Gellar: It'd be a close one.
MVD drags Parish up and tosses him over the barricade. MVD then does a two thumb pose, which actually brings a chant of "Matt Van Dam" from the crowd. MVD rolls into the ring and springs up to his feet, picking up a Singapore Cane as he does so. MVD raises the cane above his head, ready to strike down Parish, but he lashes out with a lead pipe, which catches MVD across the gut, and he crumples to his knees. Parish grabs the trashcan and empties it as he carries it towards MVD. He then dumps the trashcan over MVD's head and then runs off the ropes, before dropkicking the can, and MVD's face. MVD goes down, and thrusts the can off his body. Parish picks up the singapore cane that MVD was going to use on him and paces around the ring. MVD struggles up to his feet, but not for long as a Cane shot from Parish puts him back on his knees. Parish then cracks the cane over MVD's head before going for a cover. 1 .2 . MVD kicks out. Parish looks through the various things on the floor and finds a computer keyboard. He waits for MVD to begin getting to his feet, and then cracks the keyboard over his head, knocking him flat on his back, and sending keys all over the ring. MVD struggles up to his feet and Parish bounces off the ropes and plants MVD with the Pitbulldog. He goes for the cover. .1 2 MVD just gets his shoulder up. Parish signals for an end to the match and pulls MVD towards the corner and then he leaps up to the top rope. He stands up straight and then goes for a Shooting Star Press, but MVD moves out of the way and Parish finds nothing but canvas.
Gellar: Bad landing for Parish, this is MVD's chance to regain control of this contest.
Blackbird: A few weapon shots should do the trick.
Gellar: I swear you enjoy violence.
Blackbird: I wasn't the King of Hardcore for nothing you know.
MVD struggles to his feet, as does Parish. Silas comes in with a few quick right hands, but MVD retaliates with some heavy right hands of his own. He then whips Parish into the ropes before crashing into him with a Spinning Wheel Kick. Parish gets to his feet quickly, but MVD gives him a hard kick to the groin, which doubles Parish over. MVD then comes off the ropes and hits the Van Dam Asser (FameAsser). MVD goes for a cover. ..1 .2 .. Parish just kicks out. MVD heads over to the edge of the ring and shouts at the timekeeper, who gets up and tosses MVD a Steel Chair. MVD then turns around and waits for Parish to get up before tossing the chair at him. Parish catches the chair and then MVD crashes into him with the Vandaminator. MVD does a quick two-thumb pose and then leaps up to the top rope for the Five Star Frog Splash.
Gellar: This one is over.
Blackbird: Wait!! Look, on the tron!!
The Tron has come to life, and who is on there, but Jason Hunt. He's dragged JVD through the backstage area, the poor girl looks a bit ragged, and is visibly shaken up. Hunt doesn't seem to care though. The crowd are booing loudly. MVD is still on the top rope, but his full attention is on the Tron, at least until Parish pushes him off and he crashes chest first into the barricade. The Tron goes back to showing the in-ring action.
Gellar: What's going on backstage? We need another camera back there, quickly!!!
Parish goes to the outside of the ring and pulls MVD to his feet, he goes to whip him towards the steps, but MVD reverses and Parish crashes into the steel steps. MVD then abandons the match and starts running up the aisle, and goes straight through the curtain.
Gellar: MVD is going to help his wife, which is understandable.
Blackbird: Can we get a camera back there?
Gellar: Yes, I'm told we have a mobile camera following MVD actually.
The camera cuts backstage and we get a very jerky picture as the cameraman is clearly running to keep up with MVD, who is racing at full tilt through the backstage area. Bumping into various people without apology, and knocking various things over. He rounds a corner and the camera follows around a moment later, we see that MVD has stopped, JVD is standing there with a Jason Hunt T-Shirt on, looking a bit scared, with Law Hiyabusa standing next to her.
MVD: "What happened? Are you okay? What are you doing here?"
Law: "I was in my locker room, and I heard some commotion, I came out to find JVD here like this, she had this stuck to her back."
Law hands MVD a note
MVD: "Oh, I see, well thanks."
JVD: "What does the note say?"
MVD opens it up to find out.
MVD: "Visit JasonHunt.com"
MVD's looks extremely angry, but he regains some of his composure for the moment.
MVD: "Thanks for your help Law, but would you mind leaving us alone."
Law: "Sure, later".
Law walks off, as MVD comforts his wife, as we fade to a commercial.
"Counterfeit God" by Black Label Society hits the arena. The fans pop to their feet as God Nightshade walks from the back with an elegant two-toned cape flowing behind him. Around his waist, a title is seen. The camera gets a tight shot to see it is in fact the Slaughterhouse World Title. His stride is regal and rigid, yet fast. He walks down the ramp and walks up the steps, while looking out at his fans. His step through the ropes is highly exaggerated. He walks to the center of the ring and looks around at his followers. They cheer him until he holds his right hand in the air.
God Nightshade: This belt around my waist was earned in match that can only be described as hell. A hell festered up by the man known as Bryan Bishop. My true mortal enemy... The man who has been following me for oh too long... You see, I left the Slaughterhouse for a reason. I left it because I knew it was worthless. A woman too green for her own good took over. Denied the fans what they wanted to see. Denied the fans me. That is why I stand before you today. That's why I stand before you with this title around my waist. The title I refuse to give back. I have earned my spot in the annals of wrestling history. I am a living legend in the busi...
Nightshade is cut off by Staind's "Mudshovel". The fans boo the imminent arrival of Solo. Nightshade merely stares at his former adversary with a curious eye. He knows what is in store. The fans know exactly what is in store... A Solo promo... Solo slides into the ring and gets right up into Nightshade's face. He holds a microphone in his hand.
Solo: "Nightshade, will you please shut up. No one gives a damn about what you had done in the Slaughterhouse. You know why? Its the PWF not the Slaughterhouse your in now. Since you so damn up tight about the Slaughterhouse lets talk about how you had to screw me over so many times in the Slaughterhouse. I should had been the champion long before I won it. Only reason I didn't was because of your fear of what I could have done to you. You are now on my turf. What you had done to me is no longer your protection."
Solo stares at Nightshade with malicious intents in mind.
Solo: "At the Rumble you screwed me out of a shot at the World Title. You couldn't stand that I had proven once again I was the better man. Oh no you had to nail me with a steel chair like the coward you are. You're not a God you're a lowly piece of scum. Tonight I'm gonna show the world just what you are."
Nightshade looks out at the fans with a stone look on his face. Either he sees Solo as no threat, or he just doesn't care. He continues to look around the arena.
God Nightshade: Solo... There is no Hell in a Cell around here. What do you think you'll be able to do? You don't have what it takes to face me on one. I've proven that time and time again. Do you think you can defeat me here tonight?
Solo: "Oh is that so. Just when have I been limited to only the HIAC? That's right because you never had the balls to face me in the HIAC you think I can't beat you. I don't give a damn what match it be I am gonna kick your ass tonight. Just like I did at the Rumble."
As Solo finishes his sentence, Nightshade thrusts him in the nose with the microphone. Solo spins around holding his face.
God Nightshade: What do you think you can do Solo? What? You think you can take the Sulphurous Ash? We'll see...
Nightshade spins Solo around before kicking him in the stomach and rocking him to the mat with the Sulphurous Ash (Evenflow DDT). Nightshade pops up to his feet and over to the turnbuckle. He stands on the middle rope and looks out at the crowd in a crucifixion pose. As he finishes showering in the adoration of the fans, he steps down and spots Solo beginning to fight to his feet while shaking off the effects of the mic shot and Sulphurous Ash. Nightshade slides under the ropes and grabs a steel chair from the timekeeper at ringside. He slides back into the ring as Solo is standing up. Nightshade poke checks him in the stomach with the chair before dropping it and driving Solo down with the Sulphurous Ash again. Nightshade pops back up to his feet again as the fans cheer louder. He picks up the microphone and looks down at Solo.
God Nightshade: I've come to the PWF to take it by storm. To shake it up and make things interesting again. People like Matt Van Dam... Sabre... Golgotha... Jason Hunt... their time is running out... I am God Nightshade, I am the biggest star in the PWF.
Nightshade looks out to the crowd and then back down at Solo, who is lying in a heap on the floor.
God Nightshade: Solo, I've told you before that you'd be bowing before God Nightshade... Here you are again... on the ground in my presence.
Nightshade loos up and out at the crowd.
God Nightshade: To every wrestler on this roster... if you want a spot in the next coming... Bow before God Nightshade...
"Counterfeit God" hits again as Nightshade poses around the ring in a crucifix pose some more before stepping out and heading to the back. Solo begins to come to in the ring as Nightshade turns and nods at him.
Gellar: Solo doesn't look in good condition, he has a match coming up in about 5 minutes with Splinter!!!
Blackbird: Let's hope he recovers quickly, because if he doesn't, then he might have to pull out, and he REALLY wouldn't like that.
Splinter is shown backstage with veteran PWF interviewer, Johnny Mayhem. Mayhem stands with Splinter in front of a huge Defiance sign backstage, Johnny begins his interview with the obvious question
Mayhem: So Splinter, I'll start with a simple question. We're standing in front of a Defiance sign and I must ask you, how does it feel to be part of PWF Defiance.
Splinter: It feels pretty good Mayhem, knowing that this whole show is based around exactly the same thing that Splinter is based around. Beating the hell out of people and of course taking Extreme to a new level. Its No Holds Barred for every single match, could it be any better? Splinter would have to say no, it couldn't.
Mayhem: Ok, and your match with Suicide last week. You managed to pull out a hard fought win, but after the match you took a shot straight to the head with a steel chair from your opponent. Anything to say?
Splinter: Yes, as per usual Splinter has plenty to say. Suicide messed with the wrong Hardcore Chair Swinging Freak last week. Suicide put up a good fight, its true, but he just didn't quite have what it takes to get Splinter down on the mat for a three count. He lost, he got angry. Its understandable, its acceptable. But hitting Splinter with a steel chair? Now that's called taking things a little too far!
Mayhem: Yes, but saying that you viciously attacked Suicide backstage earlier on this evening.
Splinter: Yeah well, Suicide had to learn something the hard way. Splinter took him straight to school and directed him to Hardcore Chair Swinging 101. And that's where Suicide learned a vital lesson. Payback really is a bitch.
Mayhem: I'm sure that having watched over your match you heard some of Hanibal's comments at the announce table. It seems that it isn't over between you and Hanibal.
Splinter: Ohhhh its far from over. Hanibal has got quite the beating coming his way, trust Splinter when he says that. That Extreme Title is gonna find its way back round Splinters waist, but of course only after Hanibal gets a chair wrapped round his god-damned head. And as for who made whom, Hanibal you were obviously the inferior member of Canadian Kaos. Grimm put you where you are today, but it ain't gonna be him who knocks you down. Oh no, that responsibility will fall to the one, the only, Splinter. And guess what else Mayhem? Splinter is gonna take great pride in chopping Hanibal down to size.
Mayhem: And what about Solo, tonight on Defiance?
Splinter: Hell In A Cell Champion? More like jackass of the year. Damn. Well he can beat that Suicide reject, so he can't be that un-talented. Should be interesting, although a Splinter victory is definitely on the cards.
Mayhem: Well any last words before we wrap up this interview?
Splinter: Well
Suddenly Splinter is taken down by a hard chair shot across the back of the head, he drops to his knees only to get the chair hammered across his back three more times. The camera pans up and its Suicide! Suicide discards the bent chair
Suicide: Last words? Allow me. If paybacks a bitch, Splinter, then I just made you MY bitch!
Suicide walks off, he is heard saying something
Suicide: Hardcore Chair Swinging Freak my ass
Suicide walks off as Mayhem tries to help Splinter up, the camera fades to the next scene
Gellar: Well this is good.
Blackbird: Both Splinter and Solo knocked out before they have to wrestle each other. You gotta laugh.
Gellar: It is funny in a way, but I was looking forward to the match, we'll take a commercial break, and see how things are when we get back.
We return to the live feed in the Medical Room, Solo is there being tended to by one of the nurses, then Defiance Owner, Big Dave, walks in.
Big Dave: "How is he nurse?"
Nurse: "He'll live, but I think he's got a concussion, he'll need to go to the hospital."
Solo: "It can wait, I got a match to wrestle."
Big Dave: "Your in no condition to wrestle, we can find a replacement for you."
Solo: "I wasn't giving you an option, I'm wrestling, and that's that. Now patch me up, I'm due in the ring."
The Nurse looks at Big Dave, who gives a reluctant nod. She then returns to patching Solo's head up, while Big Dave leaves the room. We follow him as he walks a short distance down the corridor, where he comes across a member of the EMT patching up a wound on Splinter's head.
Big Dave: "Not you as well?"
Splinter: "That bastard Suicide jumped me from behind."
Big Dave: "You gonna be okay to wrestle?"
EMT: "He should go to a hospital".
Splinter: "I'm wrestling Solo, whether you like it or not."
The EMT looks at Big Dave.
Big Dave: "Lot of that going around, let him go."
Big Dave walks off down the corridor shaking his head, as Splinter heads for the entrance.
Gellar: Well it looks like we've still got ourselves a match, even if it is between two wrestlers who should be in the hospital.
Blackbird: It's hard to say who'll win this match, I suppose it depends on who took the most punishment, and who can take the most punishment.
Gellar: It'll be an interesting contest to say the least.

"Pain" by Soulfly hits as Splinter walks through the entrance. Various instances of Hardcore Matches involving Splinter are played on the tron. He walks down to the ring, a patch on his forehead, and not looking 100% there. Still, he exchanges a few words with various front row fans. Then he rolls into the ring and awaits the start of the match with an confident look on his face.
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing from Colchester, England. Weighing in at 223lbs. SPLINTER!!!!
"Mudshovel" by Staind hits as Solo walks out, he walks swiftly down to the ring, not looking 100%. He climbs in the ring and doesn't flip off the fans as he usually does..
Philip Edgar Jones: Introducing, from the Snake Pit, weighing 280lbs, This is SOLO!!!
Gellar: "I really don't know how these two are going to be wrestling tonight. Solo has to wrestle with a concussion and Splinter just getting a brutal chair shot."
Blackbird: "It's good to see they're willing to go on, though."
Report: Solo climbs into the ring and is immediately sent to the corner from some offensive jabs from Splinter. The two grapple, and Solo pushes Splinter back into the centre of the ring before running in with a swinging neck breaker. Both men stay on the floor for a moment, with the neckbreaker taking the wind out of both of them. Eventually, as the crowd begins to gain more momentum, Splinter rises and begins taking to Solo with some boots to the midsection. He then Irish whips him into the turnbuckle, running in with a bodysplash.
Gellar: "We haven't seen a whole heap of moves yet, but it looks like Solo and Splinter have just been in an Ironman match."
Solo drops to the ground once again and Splinter mounts him with some hard right hands to the face. Solo seems dazed as Splinter then picks him up and hits a reverse DDT. He goes for the pin, but Solo just gets the shoulder up. Splinter picks Solo up by the hair and once more tries to pull off a DDT but Solo counters the move, gives a shot to the midsection and hits a picture perfect belly-to-belly suplex. He dives in for a pin attempt, but Splinter remarkably gets a shoulder up at the last minute. Both men begin to stand, both obviously in pain before exchanging right hands. Splinter begins to block Solo's assault, and as Solo tries a desperation clothesline, Splinter ducks, catches his head and hits a second neck breaker. Solo writhes on the floor, clutching the back of his head as Splinter rises.
Gellar: "Those two neckbreaker's combined with the earlier assault isn't going to help Solo. I'd consider stopping the match... his neck may have some damage."
Blackbird: "This is Defiance. These boys both know that when you're in the ring, you're going to have to ride the pain."
Splinter picks Solo up before hefting him over his shoulder in a great feat of strength. He circles the ring, shouting to the fans before setting Solo up for a piledriver. Fans scream and lightbulb's begin to flash as Splinter connects with the move and Solo's head hits the canvas, his body contorting before dropping onto the canvas. Splinter makes the cover... 1... 2...
Gellar: "He kicked out! Solo kicked out of a piledriver!"
Blackbird: "I don't know if it's Solo or just instinct but the man has guts."
Splinter looks shocked before picking Solo up again, looking to nail a second piledriver. As he lifts Solo over his shoulder, Solo slides out of the hold, dropping down behind Splinter and performing a stunning pump handle slam. Splinter crashes onto the canvas and arches his back in pain as Solo drops to the canvas, exhausted.
Blackbird: "A fantastic counter by Solo, but it took a lot out of him. Both men are now really feeling the effects of the previous assaults.
Gellar: "That slam sure isn't giving Splinter's back any slack and quite frankly I'm surprised Solo is still standing."
Both men begin to rise, with Splinter hitting a huge haymaker to Solo's head which sends the HIAC master reeling. Splinter takes the advantage with an Irish whip to the ropes, followed by a drop toehold. Splinter then raises Solo up with one arm while signalling to the crowd with the other..
Blackbird: "Looks like we're gonna see the Splinter driver!"
Splinter sets Solo up into the powerbomb position, but Solo furiously begins to fight back, hitting a series of punches until Splinter lets go of the hold. Solo then kicks Splinter in the gut and nails his finisher, the "Painful Memories" (Stone Cold Stunner) Before collapsing onto Splinter. The ref makes the count as both men lie motionless... 1... 2... 3! Winner via pinfall... Solo!
Solo's hand is raised as he groggily walks around the ring aimlessly. Finally, as "Mudshovel" by Staind hits for the second time tonight, he slides under the ring before snatching a mic from a nearby ring official...
Solo: "Nightshade, tonight just proves that no matter what you try to do to me, I will always be there, and at a seconds notice you'll be lying in the ring motionless care of the Painful Memories, just like Splinter."
Solo then begins to walk up the rampway as Splinter begins to come to in the ring...
Blackbird: "Solo indeed picks up the win despite the backstage beat down he received."
Gellar: "Not forgetting, Splinter also got a harsh chair shot not too long ago, either."
Blackbird: "In any case, Solo picks up the win due to some quick offence at the end and a huge comeback from the piledriver he took."
Cameras cut to Johnny Mayhem, who springs into action trying to intercept the "?" champ, Sabre, who seems to have an unusual spring in his step...
Mayhem: "Sabre, could I please get your thoughts on your title match with Law tonight?"
Sabre stops and embraces Mayhem like he was an old school buddy, smiling and patting him on the shoulder...
Sabre: "Hey there Mayhem. I'd just like to take this opportunity to thank the Defiance roster for being complete squeezers, Big Dave for being a conniving, pathetic little man and everyone who's tried to halt my greatness. I'll see you all when I'm main eventing End of the World. I'd also like to put a shout out to all my buddies on the Havoc roster and I'll look forward to working with you all sooner rather then later. As for my thoughts regarding Law? No comment. Off I go to defend this prestigous no-name title. Toodle-oo."
Sabre walks off and then bumps into something, the camera pans out to show that Sabre walked right into the Defiance Owner, Big Dave. How we don't know, at 7'4" and 500lbs, the guy's hard to miss.
Big Dave: "What was that I heard you call me?"
Sabre: "I think it was conniving, pathetic, little "
Big Dave: "Shut up. I was going to present you with a nice brand spanking new Title Belt, but seeing as you can't stop running your mouth, I think I'll make you wait until next week. As for your match with Law tonight? Well, I've a couple of announcements to make first."
Sabre: "What announcements? What Belt? I'm the champion dammit!! I have a right to know!!"
Big Dave: "When you learn to show some proper respect, I'll keep you informed, until then, bye."
Big Dave heads off towards the ring leaving a perplexed Sabre staring after him.
The scene cuts to the squared circle. Inside the ring is a large table and 3 chairs, 2 at either end and one to the side. Suddenly the arena goes completely black and a shady voice utters very slowly the word "BIG" then the UltraTron shows a huge concrete block, as a big "B" made from steel slams into it, then an "I" and then the "G" and fireworks erupt from all over the arena, the ring, the ramp-way, the security rails, everywhere as the main chorus to "Cochise" by Audioslave kicks in and Big Dave is raised onto the Ramp-way via a sunken platform.
He is dressed a very sharp-black Gucci suit with his long golden locks tied back into a pony tail and wearing his trade-mark shades he struts his way to the ring. He jumps onto the ring apron and then walks over the top rope and grabs a mic and "Cochise" begins to fade out.
Big Dave: "Now, I came out here to make a few announcements, and make a change to the Main Event. I was also going to present two brand new Title Belts, but because Mr Sabre decided he wanted to be all bigheaded, he'll have to wait until next week. I also have Law's brand new Television Title, which he'll also be presented with next week."
Gellar: I'll be glad to see an end to the confusion regarding the Defiance Titles
Big Dave: "But before I make any announcements, I want to deliver a message to the entire Defiance Roster. SHOW SOME RESPECT. I'm sick and tired of everyone being disrespectful to me. If you think I'm going to be a soft touch, ask King Volcano, if you can find him that is. Try the McDonalds in Chicago."
Blackbird: "Looks like the actions of some people of the last two weeks have been getting to the boss."
Big Dave: "Now, I can get on with my announcements. The first thing I want to do is change tonight's Main Event. We're not going to see Sabre v Law tonight, that's for certain .."
"Brand New Hate" by the Backyard Babies fires throughout the arena, and the crowd begin booing hoarsly as Sabre slowly struts out from behind the curtain, arms raised, taking in the negativity. He grins cockily at the fans in the front row as he walks to the ring, before jumping onto the apron and leaping over the third rope. He then moves into the centre of the ring and slowly pretends to brush some dirt from his chest, before raising his arms again while flames erupt in a large explosion on the stage behind him...
Gellar: You know, I don't think Sabre was meant to come out here..
Blackbird: Since when has Sabre listened to anyone?
Sabre: "So... you're sick of the roster disrespecting you? Well... I'm sick of YOU disrespecting ME. Change the match any damn way you want, it's not like this belt means anything to you. And as much as you hate to think about it... it doesn't matter what kind of crap you throw at me, you'll still be the owner of a dying brand because you don't listen to the fans, and I'll be the man main eventing End of the World. Not Nightshade, not Hunt, not MVD. ME. So fiddle around with whatever midcard crap you want to... you can't touch me. Wake up to yourself and get with the system. When you feel like giving someone DESERVING a title match, let me know."
Big Dave: "You never learn do you Sabre? Well guess what, your STILL in tonight's main event. But you won't be fighting Law, you'll be TEAMING with Law."
Sabre looks taken aback as "Falling Apart" by TrustCompany hits the arena and the TV Champion, Law Hiyabusa makes his way down to the ring.
Big Dave: "Seeing as last weeks main event ended in complete chaos, I'm going to make sure that this weeks Main Event is kept under control."
Big Dave removes his top to reveal a Referee's Shirt.
Big Dave: "PERSONALLY"
Gellar: The Defiance boss taking an active role for the first time.
Blackbird: He needs to, before things spiral out of control.
Sabre: "What the hell do you think your doing? You can't force me to team with a curtain jerker like Law? I'm the best wrestler in the PWF, in the world, hell, I'm the best wrestler in the entire universe. And THIS is what you give me? What kind of owner are you? Did you work for WCW or something?"
Big Dave: "Oh you'll work with Law, whether you like it or not. Either that, or you'll get your ass kicked. Let me introduce you to your opponents. Because he attacked Solo earlier tonight, opponent #1 will be the self-proclaimed God, NIGHTSHADE."
"Counterfeit God" by the Black Label Society hits the arena as "God" Nightshade makes his way down to the ring, ready to make is PWF TV debut.
Big Dave: "And also, I should point out that NO MAN should ever mistreat a woman like Jason Hunt did to Jennifer Van Dam earlier tonight, and for that reason, Opponent #2 will be JASON HUNT."
"Do you call my name" by RA hits the arena as Jason Hunt reluctantly makes his way down to the ring, constantly looking over his shoulder, expecting MVD to strike at any time. He grabs a mic and then rolls into the ring.
Jason Hunt: "What is this? A prison? We do something you don't like and you sentence us? Is this going to be a weekly thing? Because I'd like to know, because I really don't want to have to come out here and listen to Sabre whinge every week. I've heard enough of him to last me a lifetime."
Big Dave: "Did I say you could speak? No, I didn't think so. Because I STILL have one more announcement to make. Let me introduce our guest colour commentator for tonight's Main Event. MATT VAN DAM.!!!"
Hunt's face turns pale for a moment, before he regains his composure. "Snap your Fingers, Snap your Neck" by Dry Kill Logic hits the arena as a cocky looking MVD makes his way down to the ring. He's wearing tracks and a gWo shirt instead of his ring attire. He keeps his eyes on Hunt as he walks around the ring and takes a seat at the announcer's table. Big Dave orders the two teams to get ready for their match.
Gellar: Well, it looks like we have ourselves a main event, booked in probably the most bizarre way possible.
Blackbird: This one will certainly be interesting to say the least.
Special Guest Referee: Big Dave
Report: Big Dave has taken a seat next to the announcers table, while MVD is sitting next to Blackbird, leaning back on the barricade. Sabre and Law are arguing about who should start the match, Sabre decides by throwing Law through the ropes and then turning to face Hunt & Nightshade. Big Dave gives Sabre an angry glare (which Sabre ignores). Nightshade insists on starting the match, this being his PWF in-ring TV debut. Sabre & God Nightshade circle around the ring. They tie up, and instantly Nightshade snaps Sabre into a hammerlock. He circles Sabre around the ring, showing him off to the crowd. But then Sabre snaps out into an Arm Wrench. Nightshade then uses his power to snap the Arm Wrench over, intending to flip Sabre over to the floor. Sabre flips over, but lands perfectly on his feet and then decks Nightshade with a Back Heel Kick. Sabre shows off to the crowd as Nightshade gets to his feet. Sabre brings his attention back to Nightshade and they circle each other once again. Nightshade fakes a tieup and then quite simply smashes Sabre in the face with a straight right hand. Completely unprepared, Sabre crashes to the mat, although he bounces up pretty quickly. Nightshade unleashes a flurry of right hands knocking Sabre back into the ropes and then he irish whips him to the other side. Nightshade snaps Sabre over with a Powerslam and then hooks the leg. 1 .2 . Sabre kicks out easily. Nightshade pulls Sabre up and knees him in the gut, he then takes him over towards Hunt and offers a tag, which Hunt accepts.
MVD: Well, this match is about to go downhill.
Gellar: Seeing as you're here Matt, we'd like to hear your thoughts on facing Hunt at the first Defiance PPV, and of the "no contact" clause that was added by Big Dave.
MVD: There are plenty of things I'd like to say about Jason Hunt, the problem is that even on this extreme broadcast, if I said any of them, the show would probably get pulled off the air.
Blackbird: And we wouldn't want that to happen.
Gellar: Indeed not.
Hunt steps into the ring and gives Sabre a straight right to the face. Which ends any doubts that he might go soft on his former gWo teammate. Hunt pulls Sabre up and knees him in the gut and then delivers a flawless Snap Suplex. He goes for a cover. 1 .2 Sabre kicks out. Hunt pulls Sabre up and whips him hard into the corner. He follows in and hits a hard knife-edge chop. Sabre chest goes bright red as Hunt scores with a 2nd chop. Hunt goes for a 3rd chop, but Sabre skillfully blocks it and counters with a swift Eye Poke. Which Big Dave can do nothing about. Sabre delivers a couple of quick right hands and then whips Hunt to the ropes before knocking him down with a Flipping Dropkick. Again Sabre takes time out to show off to the unappreciative crowd before he pulls Hunt to his feet. Law is calling for a tag, but Sabre doesn't even look at him. Sabre whips Hunt into the ropes, but the irish whip is reversed and Hunt goes for the Down Syndrome (Tilt a Whirl Driver), but Sabre escapes and lands on his feet. Sabre knees Hunt in the gut and then places his leg over his head, and allows Hunt to flip him over. Sabre then hooks Hunt up and delivers a High Angle Back Drop, and then attempts a cover. ..1 .2 Hunt kicks out.
MVD: Seeing as I'm not allowed to touch Hunt until the PPV, I guess I'll have to enjoy watching Sabre beat the crap out of him instead.
Sabre pulls Hunt up and slaps him hard across the face. He then whips him into the ropes before snapping him over with a perfect Hurricanranna. Nightshade managed to squeeze in a blind tag when Hunt was whipped to the ropes, and thinks he's blindsiding Sabre, but he's taken by surprise when Sabre spins around with a Spinning Heel Kick, catching Shady bang on the jaw. Sabre then heads to the corner and begins to climb to the top rope. Nightshade and Hunt both get to their feet and Sabre dives off with a Corkscrew Body Attack taking both men down. Sabre then walks around the ring showing off to the crowd, he then pulls Nightshade up to his feet and knees him in the gut. He takes him over to Law, and offers him a tag, Law goes to slap the outstretched hand, but at the last moment, it is pulled away and Sabre gives Law the middle finger and then takes Shady away from the corner and delivers a Snap Suplex. Sabre runs to the ropes and hits a perfect Lionsault, he goes for the cover. .1 2 Nightshade kicks out. Law is trying to attract Sabre's attention, but he is being completely ignored. Sabre pulls Nightshade up and then dumps him throat first onto the 2nd rope. Sabre then slingshots over the top rope and drops a leg drop across the back of Shady's neck. Sabre shows off to the crowd at ringside, who jeer him back and then Sabre spins around and punches Nightshade clean in the face, knocking him off the 2nd rope. Sabre leaps onto the apron and then stops as he spots a hot chick in the 3rd row, he points her out and tries to get he attention. She promptly holds up a sign saying "Sabre Sucks". Sabre turns back to the action disappointed and then springs up to the top rope. He sees Nightshade climbing up to his feet and as soon as he is standing, he dives off the top rope. Nightshade immediately moves out of the way, and Sabre spots this and just rolls across the mat and to his feet, but he rolls right into his corner where Law promptly tags himself in. Sabre looks rather unhappy about it, but doesn't have much time to think about it, as Law cracks him in the back of the head with a hard right hand.
MVD: What the hell does Law think he's doing? He's just thrown away any hope of winning this match.
Gellar: You mean that you don't get to watch Sabre beat on Hunt anymore.
MVD: He was beating on Nightshade you dumbass, you're the announcer, and you can't even tell who's who!!
Gellar: You know what I meant
MVD: Hey, Big Dave said I couldn't touch Jason Hunt, he didn't say anything about jackass announcers.
Blackbird: (standing up to separate the two men) Hey, hey, calm down, there's enough fighting going on around here without you two starting a brawl.
MVD: Whatever.
Law flies at Nightshade and knocks him down with a Spinning Wheel Kick. He then follows through and knocks Hunt off the apron with a straight right hand. Sabre is still arguing with Big Dave about the blind tag, but he has reluctantly gone to the apron, but then quickly drops to the floor. Law pull Nightshade up and then whips him into the ropes, but Shady reverses and Law goes towards the ropes, where Sabre cracks him across the back with a Steel Chair. Sabre tries to fake shock, and pretend that it was an accident, but Big Dave isn't falling for it, and he gives Sabre a mouthful and orders him back to his corner, but not before Sabre tosses the Steel Chair into the ring.
Gellar: What's wrong with Sabre, he had plenty of time to see Law coming, there was no need to hit him, he could have easily pulled out. They are meant to be tag team partners.
Blackbird: This is Sabre we're talking about here.
MVD: What about Sabre? You saying he can't be trusted? You calling Sabre untrustworthy?
Blackbird: I didn't say that.
MVD: But you meant it, and I'll make sure he knows about it as well.
Nightshade grabs the chair that Sabre threw in the ring and throws it down in the centre of the ring. He pulls Law up and then hooks his head and drives his head into the steel with an old school DDT. He pulls the chair from under Law and places it across his chest. He then goes over to Hunt and tags him in. Jason Hunt springs up to the top turnbuckle and then flies off with a Guillotine Leg Drop, crushing Law's chest under a mash of flesh and steel. Hunt goes for a cover. ..1 .2 . Law just gets his shoulder up.
MVD: Now if Hunt was a talented wrestler, like myself, he'd have won the match there. But of course, there is no talent in Hunt, the only success he had was because of the gWo, he won't survive without it.
Gellar: But can you survive without the gWo?
MVD: Who said anything about there being no gWo?
Blackbird: There is only you and Sabre left, you can't really have a stable on 2 wrestlers.
MVD: The gWo will be, and always has been more than the sum of its parts. The gWo will live forever.
Hunt pulls Law up and lifts him over his shoulder and then dumps him on the top rope. He climbs up, but Law gets in a couple of body blows and then pushes Hunt down to the mat. Law then gets to his feet as Hunt staggers up, he then dives off the top rope and knocks Hunt down with a Missile Dropkick. Law then begins to slowly crawl over towards Sabre for a much needed tag. Law stretches out desperately, Sabre reaches out, offering a tag. Law dives and at the last moment, Sabre pulls his hand away and drops down to the mat. Big Dave goes to the edge of the ring and gives Sabre a severe berating, but Sabre can't help but laugh his way through it. Meanwhile, Hunt is dragging the unfortunate Law back into the middle of the ring.
Gellar: Sabre isn't exactly making things up with the boss here is he?
MVD: No, he's showing Big Dave who is the REAL boss around here.
Nightshade is looking under the ring for something, he pulls out what appears to be a reel of barbwire and slides it into the ring. Hunt drags Law up and throws him into his corner and gives him a quick blast of right hands. He then tags in Nightshade, who repositions the barbwire. Nightshade then pulls Law out of the corner and sets him in a front facelock. He lifts Law up and then lets him hang for a while, and then delivers a Brainbuster onto the barbwire, which rips a nasty cut on Law's forehead. Nightshade goes for the cover. .1 .2 . Law just gets his shoulder up, and only just. Nightshade pulls Law up into his lap and then uses the barbwire to rake across his face, meanwhile, Hunt is pulling a Ladder from underneath the ring. He sets it up on the outside of the ring, and then returns to his corner. Nightshade throws away the barbwire, as the blood streams down Law's face. Big Dave is checking on Law, as he considers the possibility that Law might not be fit to continue, but decides that he is, and allows the fight to go on. Nightshade pulls Law up and then locks in Nightly Shaded (Dragon Sleeper). He switches to the standing version and then makes his way over towards Hunt, where he makes the tag. He pulls Law towards the middle of the ring and then delivers a Reverse DDT. He then rolls out of the ring. Meanwhile, Hunt was climbing up the ladder on the outside of the ring. He stops at the top and looks towards MVD, he gives him some kind of wave or signal, and then he delivers a Five Star Frog Splash to Law!!! MVD looks furious.
MVD: Oh, so Jason Hunt thinks he's a smart ass, I'll show him smart-ass.
Gellar: Hey, you can't touch Hunt, don't do anything stupid!!!
Blackbird: Too late.
Hunt is covering Law, Big Dave makes the count. .1 ..2 . Big Dave sees MVD trying to get into the ring and leaves the count and rushes to intercept him. But then MVD immediately stops and backs away, with a smile on his face. Hunt is furious with Big Dave for stopping the count. While Hunt is arguing, Law is crawling over towards Sabre, reaching for a tag. Sabre has his arm outstretched, but it's straight out, high above Law, who is crawling across the mat. As Hunt pulls Law back into the middle of the ring, Sabre feigns his disappointment. Hunt drags Law up but he suddenly sneaks in a Low Blow, which brings a loud cheer from the crowd, the first for a good while. Both Law and Hunt drop down to the mat. Law crawls over towards the ropes and then uses them to get to his feet, although he can't stand without the ropes. He crawls over towards Sabre, who has turned his back on the action and is playing with the crowd. Law falls, his arm outstretched and slaps Sabre across the back for the tag. Sabre instantly spins around, and realises what has happened. But he refuses to get into the ring, and simply stays on the apron. Big Dave orders him to get in the ring, but Sabre drops off the apron and then begins to walk away, heading towards the ramp. That does it for Big Dave, who rolls out of the ring and grabs Sabre and throws him back into the ring. Big Dave rolls back into the ring and immediately he and Sabre start arguing with each other. Hunt tags in Nightshade, although Big Dave doesn't see it.
Blackbird: LOOK!! At the top of the ramp!! It's Solo!!
MVD: What the hell does that loser want?
Gellar: A piece of Nightshade by the looks of it, he's got a Sledgehammer!!
Nightshade abandons the in-ring action and heads straight out of the ring and heads towards Solo. In the ring, Sabre is still arguing with Big Dave, when suddenly Jason Hunt rolls him up. Big Dave drops down and then counts. .1 2 .3!!!! Hunt gets to his feet and starts celebrating, while Sabre goes nuts about Big Dave's fast count. The boss has a smile on his face, which only serves to make Sabre even angrier.
MVD: What!!! What the hell does the boss think he's doing? He just screwed over the 2nd best wrestler on Defiance!!!
Gellar: He's teaching Sabre a lesson.
At the top of the ramp, Solo goes for a big shot with the hammer, but Nightshade ducks it and boots Solo in the gut. He then gives him a barrage of right hands, which takes them through the curtain. Back at ringside, MVD rips off his headset and is about to slide into the ring when he stops and turns around. He walks over to the timekeeper's table and throws ring announcer Philip Edgar Jones out of the way and grabs his chair. He then walks around the ring to where Law is recuperating.
Blackbird: What is MVD doing with that chair? He has no beef with Law, and he can't hit Hunt, and I just can't see him hitting Sabre with it, so what is he doing with it?
Gellar: You never know with MVD, he's got a few tricks up his sleeve.
MVD talks with Law, and then hands him the steel chair. Hunt is still celebrating in the ring, if only to wind Sabre & MVD up. But Law interuppts him with a chairshot to the back. Law then spins around and tries to deck Sabre with the chair, but he ducks out of the way and rolls out of the ring. Big Dave has to move quickly to avoid being hit as well. Sabre and MVD are side by side as they back up the ramp.
Blackbird: Clever, very clever, I like it.
Gellar: MVD pulls a fast one, which won't please the boss. He gets a blow in on Hunt, without breaking the no contact rule.
Blackbird: Hey, I hear we've got a camera on the Nightshade/Solo backstage brawl.
We instantly cut backstage, where Nightshade & Solo are indeed battling through the backstage area. Nightshade is dominating easily, smashing Solo with a pair of heavy right hands, which send him stumbling down the corridor. Nightshade grabs Solo and throws him into the wall, which appears to bust him open, Solo continues to stagger down the corridor. Nightshade rummages through the stuff lining the corridor and pulls out a steel pipe. He catches up with Solo and smashes him across the back, which sends Solo sprawling through a set of swinging double doors. Nightshade pushes through the doors and we don't see Solo on the floor, then he appears from the right, swinging a Sledgehammer, which catches Nightshade in the gut. Solo drops the hammer and then grabs Shady and drags him part way across the open area and then tosses him through a Glass Window, which is meant to be part of a security office. Solo then catches his breath as we see Nightshade lying there unconscious.
Blackbird: I don't think I've ever seen Solo do something so smart!!
Gellar: I don't get you?
Blackbird: Don't you get it? Solo wasn't being beaten through the backstage area, he was making sure Nightshade went exactly where he wanted him to go. Solo set a trap, and Nightshade walked right into it.
Gellar: Well I'll be damned.
Blackbird: I think someone in the back wants us to end the show.
Gellar: Indeed, we're running over as it is, thank you everyone for tuning in, this is Eric Gellar and Blackbird signing off, Good Night.
