The Introduction to HPW hits. The arena filled with the screams of adoring fans. The lights fade to an empty ring. For a few moments silence is heard, and then the voices of Chad Fairfax and Doug Solomon can be heard.
Chad Fairfax: Welcome fans to sunny Orlando Florida. Tonight we will be getting a new GM. The backstage has been buzzing on who the new General Manager could be.
Doug Solomon: That's right; Chad and I have it on good authority that the new boss will be making changes. HPW will be heading in a new direction, a better direction.
Harrison Hughes’ music hits as he walks into the ring, looking over the crowd in disgust, boos can be heard throughout the arena. He sighs heavily and looks at his watch waiting a few moments before putting the Mic to his lips.
Harrison: Shut up! You're all just jealous hicks. Now I wouldn't normally waste my time talking to you people, but I have an important announcement to make. Now as I am an insanely busy man, I need someone to look after my interests here. I found him. I found a man that can easily keep people in line.
Chad: Is he going to ever just tell us who it is?
Doug: Quiet the boss is talking.
Harrison: But you people are just going to have to wait. However, I will be using his ideas next week. After the altercation with Dior, his injuries have led him to be taking some time off. So we need a new Champ. While I am an obvious choice, I'm far too busy. So this is what we're going to do. We're going to have a Cage match. Malik vs. Jimmy Duxen vs. Bloodman vs. Rip Thomas. First to escape the cage wins.
Harrison drops the Mic upon the mat and begins to walk out. His music hits as the crowd cheers for next week's Match up.
Chad: So when do we get to know who the new GM is?
Doug: Who cares, did you hear that match up. What a match that will be all these men really will go the extra mile for the belt.
Chad: Right fine. When did you go back to loving the boss?
Doug: The minute a new GM was being annouced. When a man hires a watch dog, you watch your back.
Chad: Shameless. We want to apologize for our technical mishap last week------
The lights go out with a spot light on Malik in the center of the ring, a chair in hand his head down. He raises his Mic to speak as Bloodman comes out from the audience. Malik swings the chair for Bloodman’s head. Bloodman punches the chair and grabs Malik by the throat raising him up. Malik kicks Bloodman in the stomach as he falls to the ground. Scrambling for the dented chair, he blasts Bloodman in the face. As Bloodman falls to the ground Malik grabs at the Mic.
Malik: The technical Mishap was me. Changes?! Really what fucking changes? Hughes runs the show and we all dance like little mice in a Russian show. The only change will be the belt around my waist. The chaos that I will inflict, the giant down at my feet will be slain by the sickest of men. The Audience will cry out in a joyful scream as Malik will deliver them from this existence
As Malik continues to talk Bloodman gets to his feet blood trickling down his face. He turns Malik and hits the Bloodman effect. Malik laid out.
Doug: Well you can't win if you can't get up Malik. Maybe he should do less talking and remember where Bloodman is at?
Chad: I don't know how wise that was, and how the heck did Malik cause us to not go on the air?
Doug: I don't know Chad, but I don't think you can ask him now.
Chad: Well as referees help Malik to the Back Nacido is up against Jimmy Duxen.
Jimmy Duxen vs. Nacido
Music pours into the arena with the chords of "Sweet Dreams" by Marilyn Manson, and the calm, confident figure of Jimmy Duxen walks down the ramp. Nacido already in the ring, watching his opponent arrive.
The Bell sounds and Nacido runs full speed and slides underneath Duxen. Setting up for a drop kick to the back of Duxen’s head, this connects. He tries to kick at the downed Duxen, but Duxen grabs his foot and stands. Nacido tries for a kick to the head. Duxen simply pulls at his foot, sending Nacido to the mat. Picking Nacido up by the head, he places a few rights upon his skull. The sickening thud fills the arena. Nacido ducks over another punch running towards the ropes bouncing off them, Duxen meets him in the middle of the ring with a sickening clothesline.
Duxen covers Nacido.
One……Two…..
Nacido’s barely gets his shoulder up. Duxen picks Nacido up and hits him with another clothesline. Nacido lays there as Duxen stomps on the back of his head. Shaking his head he picks Nacido up and hits the Duxen Cutter 2.0
One…. Two….. Threee.!
Chad: Nacido Has great heart! This was not his night
Doug: That's what you think? He should have just laid there, Duxen was being merciful. He's sending a message to the boys in the back. He's saying that the championship is as good as his.
Armagon is backstage watching the monitor as lights go out again. After a moment of black HPW logo can be seen as the show fades.
