{The pyro dies down, the lights in the arena slowly fade back on as the smoke settles and the camera pans across the faces off the sea of fans while they stand on their feet and cheer for the 500th NCW production. The camera finally stops on Dave Holland and the rest of the commentary crew who are ready to call the night’s action.}
Dave Holland: Welcome NCW fans to NCW’s 500th production!
Eric Hardy: Just a couple of days before christmas and this is going to be a great gift to our fans because we have a hell of a show.
Dave Holland: You can say that again, our main event features Mike Laszlo having to prove himself to Roberto Verona by taking on The Ace in a steel cage match and before that we have several fantastic matchups.
Willy Carter: And to think.. it’s all going to kick off with a Starlets match.
Eric Hardy: A starlets match between two of the top Starlets in the world today.
Dave Holland: Emma Danielson is always a scary presence in the ring, and Mercedes Vargas is one of the most technically sound wrestlers today. Should be a fantastic one.
Willy Carter: If you say so. Lets just get to it so we can get this 500th show celebration started.
MATCH ONE
Mercedes Vargas vs. Emma Danielson
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Vargas Entrance}
{Danielson Entrance}
Dave Holland: Here we go, both ladies are in the ring and look ready for this match to begin.
Eric Hardy: They are both intense competitors, they are always ready for a fight.
{Mercedes Vargas, and Emma Danielson are both standing in the ring waiting for the bell to ring but before it does so“Stronger” by 30 Seconds To Mars starts playing all over the Pa system. Two lights are pointed at the entrance way. Crystal Emerges through the curtains and is greeted by multiple pyros that start shooting off one by one. The crowd roars at her with a loud ovation of cheers and she slowly makes her way out walking down the aisle. Crystal claps the hands of some fans as she is clad in a skirt heels, and a shirt that reads Blossoming Rose. She smiles before making her way over to the commentator booth smiling as she takes a seat next to Willy Carter.}
Willy Carter: Ladies and gentlemen our guest at this time, she is the creator of the Rose Garden blog NCW Starlet and journalist Crystal Williams. It’s great to have a beautiful voice calling matches along side me.
Crystal Williams: I hope Eric doesn’t get too mad at me for taking his seat but I just had to get a close eye on Miss Vargas tonight…
Willy Carter: You mean the woman that is ducking you?
Crystal Williams: Now I won’t go that far, anyway this should be a great match between two great Starlets.
Dave Holland: Anyway it looks like the referee is calling for the bell and this one is underway.
{The bell sounds, and that signifies that start of the match. Mercedes however has her focus locked on Crystal who is sitting outside of the ring. She begins to mouth off to her in Spanish smirking, totally taking her eyes off of Emma who is waiting in the ring behind her. Crystal keeps her cool on the outside of the ring and that’s when Emma grabs Mercedes lifting her up and sends her back down to the mat with a sidewalk slam. Mercedes back hit’s the mat with a loud thud, and Emma is back up on her feet. She yanks Mercedes back up to her feet and catches her in the face with a spinning back fist. Mercedes head snaps back and Emma’s follows up by running at Mercedes jumping on top of her with a Lou Thesz press and clobbers her with punch after punch in the face. The crowd is fully behind Emma as she stands up to her feet waving a single arm in the air.}
Dave Holland: Emma Danielson is on fire in this match.
Crystal Williams: That’s part of Mercedes problem. She is always worried about others and not herself, and that mistake caused Emma to gain an early advantage.
Willy Carter: The Ogre has been held back for far too long and now the hunch back of Brooklyn Park is trying to find her way again.
{Emma smirks as she is motioning for Mercedes to get back up. Mercedes is back on her feet and Emma sends Mercedes towards the ropes, Emma charges after her going for what looks like a Crimson Spear but Mercedes side steps it and she grabs Emma by the hair, and yanks her backwards right onto her knee. Emma reaches for her head in pain, and Mercedes follows up by tucking Emma’s head underneath one of her arms, and drops her down into the mat with a reverse ddt. The fans begin to boo as Mercedes stands up dusting herself off. She drives a few boots right into Emma’s prone body. She walks over to her legs and grabs at both of them. Without hesitation she drops backwards slinging Emma right into the corner turnbuckle. Emma head hits the corner and Mercedes is back on her feet. She wraps her arms around Emma and slings her backwards with a bridging German Suplex. She arches her body upwards for a pinfall.}
One!
Two!
ThrNOOOOOOOOO
Dave Holland: That was a really close one but Emma proves that she still has more fight in her.
Crystal Williams: Mercedes is a great wrestler when she focuses on herself… This probably won’t last long…
Willy Carter: Anyway it looks like this match will continue. It’s been a great back and forth match but only one of these girls can pull through with a win.
{Mercedes is back on her feet and she stares down at Emma grinning down at her. She lifts her back up to her feet and she chuckles as she signals for her Black Rose Overdrive. She holds her up there but she doesn’t go for it. Instead she drops her smirking as she slides out of the ring, and walks over to the announcers booth. She offers a grin as she claps her hands pointing at Crystal, and Crystal just sits telling Mercedes to go back into the ring.}
Crystal Williams: Ok I don’t see what the issue is… Look just go back in the ring, I am just here to call a simple match… You are going to get yourself counted out.
Dave Holland: Well folks it looks like Mercedes won’t let it go… She has Crystal in her sight, and would rather mess with her on the outside then focus on her match.
Willy Carter: I ain’t complaining Mercedes isn’t a bad sight from an up close perspective.
{Mercedes grins before she picks up a glass of water and throws it right into Crystal’s face. Crystal reaches for her eyes and Mercedes sends a very vicious Be Still My Heart Kick to her face knocking her out of her seat. The referee is at a 7 count and Mercedes grins before sliding back into the ring. Once inside the ring Emma is getting back to her feet. Mercedes once again goes for another Be Still My Heart Kick but Emma is able to duck underneath it. Mercedes turns around and as soon as she does she is met with a Brooklyn Hangover clothesline that nearly sends Mercedes off of her feet. Emma drops down and hooks a leg for the pin fall.}
Dave Holland: Brooklyn Hangover!!!!
Willy Carter: This has got to be it!!!
One!!!
Two!!!
Three!!!
Dave Holland: Emma has done it! She has managed to beat Mercedes Vargas tonight.
Willy Carter: A special congratulations goes out to Emma Danielson, Vargas could have had this but her mind was too much on Crystal then on her opponent and it cost her the match…
{The referee holds Emma’s hand in the air, and Mercedes is back on her feet. She angrily throws Emma out of the ring and as she does so the crowd begins to cheer as Crystal finds her way back into the ring with no shoes on. She slides inside running right after Vargas but Vargas shocks everyone by kneeing her oncoming assailant in the stomach. She doesn’t waste anytime lifting Crystal up and drops her right on her head with her Black Rose Overdrive. The crowd boos even louder and Mercedes takes the unconscious form of Crystal and turns her over onto her stomach. Mercedes locks her leg around Crystal’s and bridges backwards placing the Blossoming Rose into her Divine Mercy Muta Lock… Crystal can’t help but tap out frantically as the referee tries to pull Mercedes away.}
Dave Holland: Mercedes will not let go… She said that she would beat Emma into submission but since she couldn’t do that it looks like she is going to settle for Crystal instead.
Willy Carter: And Crystal wants to step in the ring with this woman at Mind Games? Welcome back to being a full time competitor Crystal.
{Finally Emma slides back in the ring, and as she does Mercedes quickly slides up walking up the apron as she slaps her hands up and down dusting them off. She mouths off at the unconscious form of Crystal as Emma chicks on one of her good friends on the roster.}
Mercedes Vargas: You aren’t worthy to be in the ring with me Crystal… You aren’t worthy…
{ Emma continues to check on Crystal, as the Puerto Rican beauty grimaces in pain. With that being said it is on this image that we fade out on for now.}
Dave Holland: After our first exciting match, we’re back and it’s time for another good one.
Eric Hardy: Nighthawk has been one of the more impressive newcomers to NCW in recent memory, and tonight he looks to continue to turn heads with this match against a three time NCW National champion.
Willy Carter: Yeah... it’s impressive defeating Joe Everyman.
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman is a tough competitor Willy, I wouldn’t write him out of any match.
Willy Carter: I would.
MATCH TWO
Joe Everyman vs. Nighthawk
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Live To Rise by Soundgarden starts blasting over the PA system. Pyros are going off on the stage all over the place. Joe Everyman then comes out onto the stage. Joe walks down the ramp while holding their arms up towards the crowd, who has a mixed but mostly face reaction. Joe then comes to the end of the ramp and does a standing jump onto the apron. Joe then climbs into the ring through the ropes and looks around in the crowd and hold up his arm. Then loud blue pyros shoot from the ring posts. Joe then stands and waits.}
{As his opponent stands in a neutral corner the lights in the arena slowly click off, one by one, as the sold-out crowd rises to its feet in anticipation of what is to come. And as the opening strains of "Holding Out For A Hero (A Small Measure Of Peace Intro)" by Emery boom out over the sound system Nighthawk walks out through the curtain and stands at the top of the ramp, hands on his hips as he looks all around at the sold-out crowd with a wide smile on his face. Walking down the ring, shaking hands with the fans in the first 2 rows of the building and making a special effort to shake the hands and give out hugs to the kids in the front row as behind him blue-and-white Roman columns of fireworks go off, the "Wrestling Machine" finally gets to the ring and stands on the top turnbuckle while raising his left hand above his head and letting out a war cry as the crowd chants "Best in the World". }
Dave Holland: Here we go, looks like the Wrestling Machine is ready for this opportunity.
Eric Hardy: he’s excited, energized and looks prepared for a fight.
Dave Holland: This should be a good one.
{The match begins with Joe Everyman and Nighthawk immediately locking up in the center of the ring, Joe Everyman twsits on Nighthawks arm and flips him onto his back.. but now, Nighthawk instead lands on his feet, turns the tables and flips Everyman instead! Joe rolls over and pushes back to his feet, but Nighthawk sprints to the ropes and is back now with a crossbody that brings Everyman off his feet. Nighthawk gets to his feet and waits as Everyman is getting back to his, Nighthawk jumps onto the ropes and flips off where he flings himself back wtih a moonsault, but Everyman catches him in midair and instead drives Nighthawk into his knee with a shoulder breaker and then throws the wrestling machine to the mat. Everyman gets Nighthawk by the head and forces him back to his feet where he takes Nighthawk into the pumphandle, he lifts and goes to throw Nighthawk up but Night hawk twists out of it and instead lands on his feet where he has Everyman by the arm, Nighthawk steps over and flips Everyman to the mat with the CROSS ARMBREAKER!}
Dave Holland: Nighthawk has this submission locked in tight!
Eric Hardy: He’s the man of a 1,000 holds for a reason... and every one of them can be deadly in the context of a match.
Willy Carter: Everyman needs to get out of this fast, or he’s going to be done quick.
{Everyman fights and claws and screams out a bit in pain as Nighthawk has the move clinched in tight. Everyman knows he has to get out of it, but he’s in a bad spot. He digs into the mat and and manages to put his feet under him after several seconds, he pushes up and turns over and looks to grab Nighthawk and pry his way out of the move but instead Nighthawk takes him by the head and rolls him up into a cradle! 1...2.. but Joe Everyman kicks out now. Everyman quickly gets to his feet, but holding his arm in pain as he does. Nighthawk goes on the offensive but he’s stopped short with a swift kick from Joe. Everyman takes Nighthawk by the head and charges him face first into the nearest turnbuckle. Nighthawk stumbles backwards holding his head in pain as Everyman grabs him around the waist, he lift sand throws Nighthawk over with the German suplex. Everyman turns back up, holds his arm in pain as he grimaces and waits for Nighthawk to stand up, when Nighthawk is up again Everyman charges with the spear but Nighthawk catches him in mid move and instead WINDY CITY STRETCH!}
Dave Holland: What a reversal by Nighthawk! Swift thinking!
Willy Carter: That man can literally hit you with a submission out of nowhere....
Eric Hardy: He’s possibly the best wrestler in the world at it, the man knows over 1,000 ways to beat you, and even more ways to make you say “I quit.”
{Everyman is locked in tight again, he digs into the mat, and tries to pull himself towards the ropes but it’s a slow process, but one he doesn’t give up. After what has to be well over a minute he finally manages to get his finger tips on the bottom rope and Nighthawk is forced to break the submission again.}
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman just keeps on fighting.
Willy Carter: Sometimes he just doesn’t know when to quit.
Eric Hardy: It’s made him a three time National champion, so it works for him.
{Nighthawk goes to the turnbuckles as Everyman is making his way back to his feet, when Joe is back up, Nighthawk dives off and catches Everyman with the leaping tornado DDT that drives Joe’s head into the mat. Nighthawk makes the cover 1...2.. but Joe again puts his arm up into the air and breaks the pin attempt. Nighthawk rolls away and stand back to his feet, Joe stands back to his and Nighthawk turns around and offers Joe his own arm behind his back for a hammerlock. Joe looks confused, but goes at Nighthawk and takes his arm but Nighthawk instead spins around and flips Everyman to his feet and looks to lock in another arm bar as Joe is on the ground, but instead Everyman clips Nighthawk’s legs with his arm and sends NH to his back. Everyman quickly gets back to his feet, and Nighthawk kips back up. Both men charge at each other, Everyman misses a running clothesline as Nhawk runs under it. They bounce off the ropes on opposite sides of the ring, Everyman comes back for the spear, but Nighthawk flips and slides over Everyman’s back and lands on his feet as Joe hits the breaks. Everyman spins around right into a kick.. no he catches it... no Nighthawk goes for the enziguiri but Everyman ducks the kick... bu Nighthawk lands on his feet! Joe however thinks fast and kicks Nighthawk square in the stomach instead after dropping Hawk’s leg, and TWIST OF FATE! Everyman covers 1...2...3!}
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman has done it! He’s won this match!
Eric Hardy: What a match it was too... these men didn’t slow down once.
Dave Holland: String of one move after another, the spirit inside both of these men is strong, but tonight it was Joe Everyman’s night.
Willy Carter: Nighthawk continues to impress the world with his style and fluidity inside the ring... but you have to come up better than that when facing a wrestler like Joe Everyman.
Dave Holland: Indeed, it’s a learning experiance, and one I know Nighthawk can come away from stronger from, but for now, Joe Everyman gets to celebrate his impressive victory.
SEGMENT
Kelly/Sydney
“The Last Time”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{NCW Co-Owner Kelly Fox sits behind her desk with her feet up, relaxing watching a monitor of the action in the arena when suddenly the door comes open and two of Kelly’s security crew come inside, marching in front of them, Sydney who has her head lowered, sadly staring in front of her, blankly? Kelly’s feet come off the table and to the floor, and she stands up.}
Security: Ma’am, she was outside your door, insisted that she talked to you.
Kelly Fox: What the hell do you want Syd?
Sydney: I just want to talk.... alone, without Verona, without Adam, without Reeves around. Just you and me.
Kelly Fox: Fine... go on.
{Kelly motions to the two guards to leave before she steps from behind her desk and stands in front of Sydney now. Sydney lets out a long sigh, then just forces it out.}
Sydney: My whole body hurts, I have bruises on bruises that on places I didn’t know existed. I think I still have a cracked rib that hasn’t healed.... My doctor told me I need to stop getting so many concussions... you beat me, Reeves beat me... I’m beat up and tired and... I just want to stop looking around every corner, enjoy my life and just move on with it so.... I want you and me to settle this, to finally be done with each other.
Kelly Fox: Are you challenging me again? Are you crazy?
Sydney: Yes! I just want to be through with this. My face and my name, that’s all I want. I want to be able to wrestle outside NCW without a mask on, I want to be able to hear Simon call me Zelda, I want to just live me life like it was before I freaking took control of Charlie’s company! You can keep all that, all the money, all the assets. I just want me back.
Kelly Fox: … No.
Sydney: What do you mean no!?
Kelly Fox: I mean I already told you what I wanted from you! You have nothing to offer me Sydney, nothing that would be worthwhile to me in a wager.
Sydney: I thought of that... you want me gone, you never want to see me again... I’ll put that on the line. I know Adam is protecting me from being fired, and you don’t have to worry about him because I will put my entire career on the line here, I’ll never come back, I’ll never wrestle inside an NCW ring again, in a signed contract... I will never step foot in this company under any capacity for the rest of my life....
Kelly Fox: Interesting... but not enough. Making your life a living hell is kinda fun... why would I want you to leave when I could just torture you some more, really drill it in that I’m better than you.
Sydney: Come on Kelly! What more possibly can I do!? You beat me, bloodied me, let me for dead almost... what do you want!?
Kelly Fox: I ALREADY TOLD YOU! I want you to give me what you took from me, I want you to suffer, to hurt, to feel as miserable as I did when you did what you did to me. You owe me!
Sydney: NO! I’ve already jumped through your hoops and you’re taking this further just because you can! I’m done with that and I just want to move on with my life and be happy.
Kelly Fox: You’re not allowed to be happy until I tell you, you can be!
{Kelly shoves her index finger into Sydney’s chest, almost into her throat, suddenly as she lashes out. Both men are breathing heavily with all kinds of emotions running through them, so angry they are about to tear up. Kelly takes a deep breath and then moves her hand up and around the silver cross pendant around Sydney’s neck.}
Kelly Fox: You’re in my debt Sydney, i gave you a chance to repay that, i gave you multiple opportunities to make us even and you passed... what would your mom think if she saw you refusing to honor that?
{Sydney shoves Kelly’s hand away, she is clearly visibly upset to the point she’s almost foaming at the mouth now, she speaks slowly and concisely.}
Sydney: You leave my mom out of this... just tell me what you want that doesn’t involve betraying everything I believe in... and I’ll do it, just tell me what you want.
Kelly Fox: I think I made it pretty clear that you don’t have anything left to give me Sydney. I took it all the last time I beat you. There’s nothing you can offer me outside of.... wait... maybe there is something.
{Kelly smiles devilishly, it’s almost to a point of being scary how much scorn and disdain is in her gaze as she stares at Sydney.}
Kelly Fox: What’s the one thing that means everything to you... your most sacred possession. Give it to me, and we’ll be even, I’ll even give you your name and face back.
{Sydney puts her hand around her silver cross necklace pendant.}
Sydney: What? Why would you even want this?! It’s worthless to you...
Kelly Fox: Maybe it is... but not to you. To you, it’s priceless, it’s everything... I want it. I want to take it from you, I want you to live with the pain that you had to give it to me, I want you to be haunted by the nightmares, reliving that moment over and over again as you hand it to me and watch over and over as I burn it....
Sydney: I can’t...
Kelly Fox: Then leave.
Sydney: Come on! You can’t be serious!
Kelly Fox: I’ve never been more serious in my life! If you want to make things even, if you want to make things right then you’re going to have to make a sacrifice Syd! So you can either quit pretending to be all holier than thou and do as your told, or you can give up the one thing you have left from that two timing whore you called a mom!
{Sydney’s face turns bright red. Steam pours of her ears as Kelly ust smugly smiles.}
Sydney: Stop talking about her like that!
Kelly Fox: Make me.
{Kelly gets virtually nose to nose with Sydney now, smiling arrogantly at her as Sydney tries to calm her rage.}
Sydney: Fine! Me and you... if you win you get everything. I’ll be gone forever and you can have my mom’s pendant... If I win, I get to be Zelda again... I get to have the rights back to my likeness and we’re done with this forever...
Kelly Fox: Deal...but I want some collateral, to just be sure that you go through with this...
{Kelly reaches up and rips the rough leather strip necklace right off from Sydney’s neck and smiles.}
Kelly Fox: This will do.
Sydney: Give it back!
{Sydney suddenly lunges forward shoving Kelly back against her desk with Sydney’s hands wrapped around her neck, hair, anything she can get her hands on. The two women tussle around as Sydney tries to get the necklace back from Kelly for several seconds before security comes rushing back into the room. They each take Sydney by one arm and pull her back, tears flow from her eyes as Kelly stands up while adjusting her blouse and dusts herself off.}
Sydney: GIVE IT BACK! GIVE IT BACK!
Kelly Fox: Wow, so touchy over some useless piece of tin... hey I wonder how I would look in it, Syd... what do you think?
{Kelly takes both ends and looks to put it around here own neck, before Sydney rips herself out of the security crew’s grasp to try and attack again but is quickly subdued right in front of Kelly’s face.}
Sydney: I’ll kill you! I Swear it! I SWEAR TO GOD KELLY! I WILL KILL YOU! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU! Don’t do it! PLEASE!
{Kelly lowers the necklace and smiles again at the sight of Sydney crying hysterically, her face red, tears pouring down rapidly to the floor as she frantically tries to break away and can’t do so. The sight of seeing Sydney likes this, just causes Kelly to be happy.}
Kelly Fox: You know I’m pretty sure there is some law about threatening another person’s life... guys take her out of here and call the local authorities.. If nothing else she should enjoy the view from a nice jail cell for a while... give her time to reflect on all the poor decisions she’s made in life.
{They start to drag the kicking and screaming Sydney out of the office, but Kelly stops them for a moment. She walks up and puts the necklace into Sydney’s jeans pocket.}
Kelly Fox: Cherish it while you can.... it’s going to be mine soon... and then, I’ll never have to look at your face every again, and you’ll know what it’s like to hurt more than words can describe. Get her out of here.
{Sydney actually calms down some as Kelly finishes talking and the security members drag her away, and we fade to another commercial break.Wow, so touchy.}
Eric Hardy: Next match up, Davey Ortega versus Seth Evans.
Dave Holland: Davey has been on a roll these past two weeks. Seth, on the hand, has run into some bad luck.
Willy Carter: Bad luck? You mean just can't hack it.
MATCH THREE
Davey Ortega vs. Seth Evans
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Row by row, the lights throughout the arena all go out. The music has not begun to play. During the black-out, mist has started filling around the stage. It seems to take forever, but is merely just a few seconds until the instruments of "Stand Up" by All That Remains kick in, and the lights begin to flicker until a single spotlight shines up at the top of the stage, shining through the mist to reveal Seth Evans standing there with his arms out to his side, staring out toward the crowd that is cheering for him. A smile on his face, satisfied with the cheers that he is receiving while nodding his head.}
I know no one had ever dreamed that,
We were this strong, and we'd achieve this,
So long the doubt, and all believed it,
And now it's come for all to see, yeah.
{With one swift movement, he punches his fist forward toward the camera in front of him and lunges himself forward before turning his attention back out to the crowd. Walking toward the ring, ready to compete, ready to prove himself. He wastes little time to get into the ring, by sprinting when he reaches the end of the ramp and sliding underneath the bottom rope to get inside the ring. As soon as he's in the ring, he jumps to his feet and goes to the nearest turnbuckle, pointing out to the crowd and giving them a thumbs up. Just by this symbol, the crowd gives him a louder pop and he claps his hands together to applaud the fans as a means to thank them for his support. He jumps from the turnbuckle, spinning 180 degrees, and landing back on his feet in the ring, and waiting for the sound of the bell.}
Eric Hardy: There is Seth Evans, a man who is hungry for gold, in particular the National Championship.
Willy Carter: Why would these people trade a fine champion like The Ace in for a no named loser?
Dave Holland: Regardless, Seth Evans has all the tools needed to be champion.
''Back in the Saddle Again'' hits the speakers as the fans have a mixed reaction. Davey Ortega comes from the back and stand on the entrance way looking to the ring, then eying both sides of the crowed. He walks down the ring with confidence, making his way up the stairs to the apron, he walks to the middle of the apron and turns to acknowledge the fans, raising his hand for a photo opportunity before he gets into the ring and waits.
Willy Carter: Speaking of tools.
Eric Hardy: You just don't like anyone do you?
Willy Carter: I like our World Champion and his friends.
{Davey comes in with a head of steam landing a huge right which knocks Evans into the corner. He lands another right on Evans, then hits a knife edge chop eliciting some ''WOOOsss'' from the crowd. He the whips Evans to the opposite turnbuckle, running and leaping looking for a splash. Though when Davey comes down he crushes his chest into the turnbuckles as Seth was able to move at the last second.}
Eric Hardy: Nobody home!
Dave Holland: That's one way to stop momentum.
{Davey is holding his chest taking a few steps back as Evans takes advantage of this and hits a neck breaker. Seth doesn't stop there as he picks Davey up and hits a snap suplex. Seth is up to his feet and lays a few good kicks on a downed Ortega before picking him up and hitting a snapmare, bouncing off the ropes to drop kick Ortega in the face. Ortega rolls around his pain as Evans gets up and smiles, raising his arms as the fans cheer.}
Eric Hardy: The fans getting behind Evans
Willy Carter: Who cares? These people boo Roberto Verona for God sakes.
Dave Holland: Pay attention Seth. Pay attention Seth...
{If only Seth could hear Dave's words of advice, as he rallies the fans Davey is up and crouched, when Evans turns around Davey sprints and hits the Setting Sun! No! Evans was able to to grab onto Davey's head, crushing it in the mat. Both men are now down.}
Eric Hardy: What a collision...
Dave Holland: Quick thinking by Evans there.
{the ref begins the count..1...2...3..Evans starts showing signs of life...4..5..Davey is now getting up..6..7..Seth is now in his feet, and Davey is soon to follow. Both men slowly circle one another, until the tie up, both struggle to get the upper hand until Davey pushes him to the corner, forcing the ref to break them up. Davey lands a kick to Evans, then a stiff shot to the head and brings him out of the corner and lifts him up, hitting a brain buster before going for the pin. 1..2..No. Evans kicks out and Davey is back to his feet. Davey picks up Evans and tosses him to the ropes, Evans bounces back and Davey is looking for a side walk slam but Evans is able to catch Davey's head with his legs and hits a beautiful head scissors sending Davey to the mat. Evans is to his feet first, Davey is now up but Evans comes in with a dropkick that sends Davey back down. Evans now looks to hit a big move, waiting until Davey is now in his feet and he comes in looking for Bulltrue, but Davey catches his foot, then kicks the leg out from under Seth then drops an elbow on the his knee.}
Eric Hardy: Ouch, Seth's knee can not be feeling good.
Willy Carter: Huh...I forgot Davey can be ruthless at times.
Davey Holland: Or he just didn't know that Seth had a bum knee.
{Either way Seth is screaming in pain and Davey in on his feet and picks up Evans, grabbing the leg with a bad knee and hitting a dragon twist! Seth is down in pain, holding his knee. Davey takes this opportunity to gloat, pointing to his head. Seth though is able to get to on foot, with the held of the ropes, and as Davey turns around he somehow runs and hits the Bulltrue! Well, sort of, Seth wasn't able to hold his footing, but he did crack Davey underneath the jaw the sent Davey down like a sack of potatoes. Seth is slow to get to him but he does cover 1..2..3! NO!, Davey is able to throw his shoulder up. Seth is slams his hands in frustration, wondering what he has to do. Seth is now up, and able to get up under his own power. He picks up Davey and hits a nice Spinebuster, he then goes to the turnbuckle closest to them, climbing it and the fans now what it's time for. He's up and goes for The Clutch Moment! Only to be met with knees of Davey Ortega. Seth rolls around in pain, holding his stomach as Davey is now in the corner again, Seth is slow to his feet and turns around at the wrong time. Davey hits the Setting Sun, this time with out fail. He goes for the pin. 1..2..3..Davey Ortega wins.}
Eric Hardy: Davey picks up a win here.
Willy Carter: Against Seth Evans, nothing to pop champagne over.
SEGMENT
Lex Sense
“Question”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{The cameras cut backstage where we see Roberto Verona, title over his shoulder, walking down the hallway. He ignores some stagehands greeting the champion as he's only interested in his destination. He reaches a door labeled CEO and proceeds to knock three time before letting himself. Once the door is opened he spots Lex Sense hunched over Kelly Fox as they appear to be enthralled in conversation. A conversation that quickly ends when they notice Roberto standing there.}
Roberto Verona: Am I... Interrupting something?
Kelly Fox: Not at all. Lex was just telling me something funny. Weren't you big guy?
{She smiles up at Lex who doesn't say a word and just stares unblinkingly at Roberto for a few seconds before nodding in agreement.}
Kelly Fox: What can I do for you, champ?
Roberto Verona: I was coming in here to discuss business but now I think I want to hear something funny. So please, by all means, Lex, share with the class.
{Kelly shoots suspicious glances from Lex to Roberto as Sense practically growls. He takes Roberto's request as him ordering him around and it doesn't make him happy. Sense walks around Fox's desk and stands in front of Roberto, starin at him before finally speaking.}
Lex Sense: You wouldn't find it funny... Champ.
{Sense then smiles in his face and walks around him as he heads out the door. Roberto stares at him until he's completely gone before turning to Kelly.}
Roberto Verona: Should I be worried?
Kelly Fox: Have I ever given you reason to be? Please, have a seat.
{Roberto closes the door on the camera as they cut back to ringside.}
Dave Holland: Welcome NCW fans to NCW’s 500th production!
Eric Hardy: Just a couple of days before christmas and this is going to be a great gift to our fans because we have a hell of a show.
Dave Holland: You can say that again, our main event features Mike Laszlo having to prove himself to Roberto Verona by taking on The Ace in a steel cage match and before that we have several fantastic matchups.
Willy Carter: And to think.. it’s all going to kick off with a Starlets match.
Eric Hardy: A starlets match between two of the top Starlets in the world today.
Dave Holland: Emma Danielson is always a scary presence in the ring, and Mercedes Vargas is one of the most technically sound wrestlers today. Should be a fantastic one.
Willy Carter: If you say so. Lets just get to it so we can get this 500th show celebration started.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MATCH ONE
Mercedes Vargas vs. Emma Danielson
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Vargas Entrance}
{Danielson Entrance}
Dave Holland: Here we go, both ladies are in the ring and look ready for this match to begin.
Eric Hardy: They are both intense competitors, they are always ready for a fight.
{Mercedes Vargas, and Emma Danielson are both standing in the ring waiting for the bell to ring but before it does so“Stronger” by 30 Seconds To Mars starts playing all over the Pa system. Two lights are pointed at the entrance way. Crystal Emerges through the curtains and is greeted by multiple pyros that start shooting off one by one. The crowd roars at her with a loud ovation of cheers and she slowly makes her way out walking down the aisle. Crystal claps the hands of some fans as she is clad in a skirt heels, and a shirt that reads Blossoming Rose. She smiles before making her way over to the commentator booth smiling as she takes a seat next to Willy Carter.}
Willy Carter: Ladies and gentlemen our guest at this time, she is the creator of the Rose Garden blog NCW Starlet and journalist Crystal Williams. It’s great to have a beautiful voice calling matches along side me.
Crystal Williams: I hope Eric doesn’t get too mad at me for taking his seat but I just had to get a close eye on Miss Vargas tonight…
Willy Carter: You mean the woman that is ducking you?
Crystal Williams: Now I won’t go that far, anyway this should be a great match between two great Starlets.
Dave Holland: Anyway it looks like the referee is calling for the bell and this one is underway.
{The bell sounds, and that signifies that start of the match. Mercedes however has her focus locked on Crystal who is sitting outside of the ring. She begins to mouth off to her in Spanish smirking, totally taking her eyes off of Emma who is waiting in the ring behind her. Crystal keeps her cool on the outside of the ring and that’s when Emma grabs Mercedes lifting her up and sends her back down to the mat with a sidewalk slam. Mercedes back hit’s the mat with a loud thud, and Emma is back up on her feet. She yanks Mercedes back up to her feet and catches her in the face with a spinning back fist. Mercedes head snaps back and Emma’s follows up by running at Mercedes jumping on top of her with a Lou Thesz press and clobbers her with punch after punch in the face. The crowd is fully behind Emma as she stands up to her feet waving a single arm in the air.}
Dave Holland: Emma Danielson is on fire in this match.
Crystal Williams: That’s part of Mercedes problem. She is always worried about others and not herself, and that mistake caused Emma to gain an early advantage.
Willy Carter: The Ogre has been held back for far too long and now the hunch back of Brooklyn Park is trying to find her way again.
{Emma smirks as she is motioning for Mercedes to get back up. Mercedes is back on her feet and Emma sends Mercedes towards the ropes, Emma charges after her going for what looks like a Crimson Spear but Mercedes side steps it and she grabs Emma by the hair, and yanks her backwards right onto her knee. Emma reaches for her head in pain, and Mercedes follows up by tucking Emma’s head underneath one of her arms, and drops her down into the mat with a reverse ddt. The fans begin to boo as Mercedes stands up dusting herself off. She drives a few boots right into Emma’s prone body. She walks over to her legs and grabs at both of them. Without hesitation she drops backwards slinging Emma right into the corner turnbuckle. Emma head hits the corner and Mercedes is back on her feet. She wraps her arms around Emma and slings her backwards with a bridging German Suplex. She arches her body upwards for a pinfall.}
One!
Two!
ThrNOOOOOOOOO
Dave Holland: That was a really close one but Emma proves that she still has more fight in her.
Crystal Williams: Mercedes is a great wrestler when she focuses on herself… This probably won’t last long…
Willy Carter: Anyway it looks like this match will continue. It’s been a great back and forth match but only one of these girls can pull through with a win.
{Mercedes is back on her feet and she stares down at Emma grinning down at her. She lifts her back up to her feet and she chuckles as she signals for her Black Rose Overdrive. She holds her up there but she doesn’t go for it. Instead she drops her smirking as she slides out of the ring, and walks over to the announcers booth. She offers a grin as she claps her hands pointing at Crystal, and Crystal just sits telling Mercedes to go back into the ring.}
Crystal Williams: Ok I don’t see what the issue is… Look just go back in the ring, I am just here to call a simple match… You are going to get yourself counted out.
Dave Holland: Well folks it looks like Mercedes won’t let it go… She has Crystal in her sight, and would rather mess with her on the outside then focus on her match.
Willy Carter: I ain’t complaining Mercedes isn’t a bad sight from an up close perspective.
{Mercedes grins before she picks up a glass of water and throws it right into Crystal’s face. Crystal reaches for her eyes and Mercedes sends a very vicious Be Still My Heart Kick to her face knocking her out of her seat. The referee is at a 7 count and Mercedes grins before sliding back into the ring. Once inside the ring Emma is getting back to her feet. Mercedes once again goes for another Be Still My Heart Kick but Emma is able to duck underneath it. Mercedes turns around and as soon as she does she is met with a Brooklyn Hangover clothesline that nearly sends Mercedes off of her feet. Emma drops down and hooks a leg for the pin fall.}
Dave Holland: Brooklyn Hangover!!!!
Willy Carter: This has got to be it!!!
One!!!
Two!!!
Three!!!
Dave Holland: Emma has done it! She has managed to beat Mercedes Vargas tonight.
Willy Carter: A special congratulations goes out to Emma Danielson, Vargas could have had this but her mind was too much on Crystal then on her opponent and it cost her the match…
{The referee holds Emma’s hand in the air, and Mercedes is back on her feet. She angrily throws Emma out of the ring and as she does so the crowd begins to cheer as Crystal finds her way back into the ring with no shoes on. She slides inside running right after Vargas but Vargas shocks everyone by kneeing her oncoming assailant in the stomach. She doesn’t waste anytime lifting Crystal up and drops her right on her head with her Black Rose Overdrive. The crowd boos even louder and Mercedes takes the unconscious form of Crystal and turns her over onto her stomach. Mercedes locks her leg around Crystal’s and bridges backwards placing the Blossoming Rose into her Divine Mercy Muta Lock… Crystal can’t help but tap out frantically as the referee tries to pull Mercedes away.}
Dave Holland: Mercedes will not let go… She said that she would beat Emma into submission but since she couldn’t do that it looks like she is going to settle for Crystal instead.
Willy Carter: And Crystal wants to step in the ring with this woman at Mind Games? Welcome back to being a full time competitor Crystal.
{Finally Emma slides back in the ring, and as she does Mercedes quickly slides up walking up the apron as she slaps her hands up and down dusting them off. She mouths off at the unconscious form of Crystal as Emma chicks on one of her good friends on the roster.}
Mercedes Vargas: You aren’t worthy to be in the ring with me Crystal… You aren’t worthy…
{ Emma continues to check on Crystal, as the Puerto Rican beauty grimaces in pain. With that being said it is on this image that we fade out on for now.}
-------------------------[::COMMERCIAL BREAK::]-------------------------
Dave Holland: After our first exciting match, we’re back and it’s time for another good one.
Eric Hardy: Nighthawk has been one of the more impressive newcomers to NCW in recent memory, and tonight he looks to continue to turn heads with this match against a three time NCW National champion.
Willy Carter: Yeah... it’s impressive defeating Joe Everyman.
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman is a tough competitor Willy, I wouldn’t write him out of any match.
Willy Carter: I would.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MATCH TWO
Joe Everyman vs. Nighthawk
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Live To Rise by Soundgarden starts blasting over the PA system. Pyros are going off on the stage all over the place. Joe Everyman then comes out onto the stage. Joe walks down the ramp while holding their arms up towards the crowd, who has a mixed but mostly face reaction. Joe then comes to the end of the ramp and does a standing jump onto the apron. Joe then climbs into the ring through the ropes and looks around in the crowd and hold up his arm. Then loud blue pyros shoot from the ring posts. Joe then stands and waits.}
{As his opponent stands in a neutral corner the lights in the arena slowly click off, one by one, as the sold-out crowd rises to its feet in anticipation of what is to come. And as the opening strains of "Holding Out For A Hero (A Small Measure Of Peace Intro)" by Emery boom out over the sound system Nighthawk walks out through the curtain and stands at the top of the ramp, hands on his hips as he looks all around at the sold-out crowd with a wide smile on his face. Walking down the ring, shaking hands with the fans in the first 2 rows of the building and making a special effort to shake the hands and give out hugs to the kids in the front row as behind him blue-and-white Roman columns of fireworks go off, the "Wrestling Machine" finally gets to the ring and stands on the top turnbuckle while raising his left hand above his head and letting out a war cry as the crowd chants "Best in the World". }
Dave Holland: Here we go, looks like the Wrestling Machine is ready for this opportunity.
Eric Hardy: he’s excited, energized and looks prepared for a fight.
Dave Holland: This should be a good one.
{The match begins with Joe Everyman and Nighthawk immediately locking up in the center of the ring, Joe Everyman twsits on Nighthawks arm and flips him onto his back.. but now, Nighthawk instead lands on his feet, turns the tables and flips Everyman instead! Joe rolls over and pushes back to his feet, but Nighthawk sprints to the ropes and is back now with a crossbody that brings Everyman off his feet. Nighthawk gets to his feet and waits as Everyman is getting back to his, Nighthawk jumps onto the ropes and flips off where he flings himself back wtih a moonsault, but Everyman catches him in midair and instead drives Nighthawk into his knee with a shoulder breaker and then throws the wrestling machine to the mat. Everyman gets Nighthawk by the head and forces him back to his feet where he takes Nighthawk into the pumphandle, he lifts and goes to throw Nighthawk up but Night hawk twists out of it and instead lands on his feet where he has Everyman by the arm, Nighthawk steps over and flips Everyman to the mat with the CROSS ARMBREAKER!}
Dave Holland: Nighthawk has this submission locked in tight!
Eric Hardy: He’s the man of a 1,000 holds for a reason... and every one of them can be deadly in the context of a match.
Willy Carter: Everyman needs to get out of this fast, or he’s going to be done quick.
{Everyman fights and claws and screams out a bit in pain as Nighthawk has the move clinched in tight. Everyman knows he has to get out of it, but he’s in a bad spot. He digs into the mat and and manages to put his feet under him after several seconds, he pushes up and turns over and looks to grab Nighthawk and pry his way out of the move but instead Nighthawk takes him by the head and rolls him up into a cradle! 1...2.. but Joe Everyman kicks out now. Everyman quickly gets to his feet, but holding his arm in pain as he does. Nighthawk goes on the offensive but he’s stopped short with a swift kick from Joe. Everyman takes Nighthawk by the head and charges him face first into the nearest turnbuckle. Nighthawk stumbles backwards holding his head in pain as Everyman grabs him around the waist, he lift sand throws Nighthawk over with the German suplex. Everyman turns back up, holds his arm in pain as he grimaces and waits for Nighthawk to stand up, when Nighthawk is up again Everyman charges with the spear but Nighthawk catches him in mid move and instead WINDY CITY STRETCH!}
Dave Holland: What a reversal by Nighthawk! Swift thinking!
Willy Carter: That man can literally hit you with a submission out of nowhere....
Eric Hardy: He’s possibly the best wrestler in the world at it, the man knows over 1,000 ways to beat you, and even more ways to make you say “I quit.”
{Everyman is locked in tight again, he digs into the mat, and tries to pull himself towards the ropes but it’s a slow process, but one he doesn’t give up. After what has to be well over a minute he finally manages to get his finger tips on the bottom rope and Nighthawk is forced to break the submission again.}
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman just keeps on fighting.
Willy Carter: Sometimes he just doesn’t know when to quit.
Eric Hardy: It’s made him a three time National champion, so it works for him.
{Nighthawk goes to the turnbuckles as Everyman is making his way back to his feet, when Joe is back up, Nighthawk dives off and catches Everyman with the leaping tornado DDT that drives Joe’s head into the mat. Nighthawk makes the cover 1...2.. but Joe again puts his arm up into the air and breaks the pin attempt. Nighthawk rolls away and stand back to his feet, Joe stands back to his and Nighthawk turns around and offers Joe his own arm behind his back for a hammerlock. Joe looks confused, but goes at Nighthawk and takes his arm but Nighthawk instead spins around and flips Everyman to his feet and looks to lock in another arm bar as Joe is on the ground, but instead Everyman clips Nighthawk’s legs with his arm and sends NH to his back. Everyman quickly gets back to his feet, and Nighthawk kips back up. Both men charge at each other, Everyman misses a running clothesline as Nhawk runs under it. They bounce off the ropes on opposite sides of the ring, Everyman comes back for the spear, but Nighthawk flips and slides over Everyman’s back and lands on his feet as Joe hits the breaks. Everyman spins around right into a kick.. no he catches it... no Nighthawk goes for the enziguiri but Everyman ducks the kick... bu Nighthawk lands on his feet! Joe however thinks fast and kicks Nighthawk square in the stomach instead after dropping Hawk’s leg, and TWIST OF FATE! Everyman covers 1...2...3!}
Dave Holland: Joe Everyman has done it! He’s won this match!
Eric Hardy: What a match it was too... these men didn’t slow down once.
Dave Holland: String of one move after another, the spirit inside both of these men is strong, but tonight it was Joe Everyman’s night.
Willy Carter: Nighthawk continues to impress the world with his style and fluidity inside the ring... but you have to come up better than that when facing a wrestler like Joe Everyman.
Dave Holland: Indeed, it’s a learning experiance, and one I know Nighthawk can come away from stronger from, but for now, Joe Everyman gets to celebrate his impressive victory.

Kelly/Sydney
“The Last Time”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{NCW Co-Owner Kelly Fox sits behind her desk with her feet up, relaxing watching a monitor of the action in the arena when suddenly the door comes open and two of Kelly’s security crew come inside, marching in front of them, Sydney who has her head lowered, sadly staring in front of her, blankly? Kelly’s feet come off the table and to the floor, and she stands up.}
Security: Ma’am, she was outside your door, insisted that she talked to you.
Kelly Fox: What the hell do you want Syd?
Sydney: I just want to talk.... alone, without Verona, without Adam, without Reeves around. Just you and me.
Kelly Fox: Fine... go on.
{Kelly motions to the two guards to leave before she steps from behind her desk and stands in front of Sydney now. Sydney lets out a long sigh, then just forces it out.}
Sydney: My whole body hurts, I have bruises on bruises that on places I didn’t know existed. I think I still have a cracked rib that hasn’t healed.... My doctor told me I need to stop getting so many concussions... you beat me, Reeves beat me... I’m beat up and tired and... I just want to stop looking around every corner, enjoy my life and just move on with it so.... I want you and me to settle this, to finally be done with each other.
Kelly Fox: Are you challenging me again? Are you crazy?
Sydney: Yes! I just want to be through with this. My face and my name, that’s all I want. I want to be able to wrestle outside NCW without a mask on, I want to be able to hear Simon call me Zelda, I want to just live me life like it was before I freaking took control of Charlie’s company! You can keep all that, all the money, all the assets. I just want me back.
Kelly Fox: … No.
Sydney: What do you mean no!?
Kelly Fox: I mean I already told you what I wanted from you! You have nothing to offer me Sydney, nothing that would be worthwhile to me in a wager.
Sydney: I thought of that... you want me gone, you never want to see me again... I’ll put that on the line. I know Adam is protecting me from being fired, and you don’t have to worry about him because I will put my entire career on the line here, I’ll never come back, I’ll never wrestle inside an NCW ring again, in a signed contract... I will never step foot in this company under any capacity for the rest of my life....
Kelly Fox: Interesting... but not enough. Making your life a living hell is kinda fun... why would I want you to leave when I could just torture you some more, really drill it in that I’m better than you.
Sydney: Come on Kelly! What more possibly can I do!? You beat me, bloodied me, let me for dead almost... what do you want!?
Kelly Fox: I ALREADY TOLD YOU! I want you to give me what you took from me, I want you to suffer, to hurt, to feel as miserable as I did when you did what you did to me. You owe me!
Sydney: NO! I’ve already jumped through your hoops and you’re taking this further just because you can! I’m done with that and I just want to move on with my life and be happy.
Kelly Fox: You’re not allowed to be happy until I tell you, you can be!
{Kelly shoves her index finger into Sydney’s chest, almost into her throat, suddenly as she lashes out. Both men are breathing heavily with all kinds of emotions running through them, so angry they are about to tear up. Kelly takes a deep breath and then moves her hand up and around the silver cross pendant around Sydney’s neck.}
Kelly Fox: You’re in my debt Sydney, i gave you a chance to repay that, i gave you multiple opportunities to make us even and you passed... what would your mom think if she saw you refusing to honor that?
{Sydney shoves Kelly’s hand away, she is clearly visibly upset to the point she’s almost foaming at the mouth now, she speaks slowly and concisely.}
Sydney: You leave my mom out of this... just tell me what you want that doesn’t involve betraying everything I believe in... and I’ll do it, just tell me what you want.
Kelly Fox: I think I made it pretty clear that you don’t have anything left to give me Sydney. I took it all the last time I beat you. There’s nothing you can offer me outside of.... wait... maybe there is something.
{Kelly smiles devilishly, it’s almost to a point of being scary how much scorn and disdain is in her gaze as she stares at Sydney.}
Kelly Fox: What’s the one thing that means everything to you... your most sacred possession. Give it to me, and we’ll be even, I’ll even give you your name and face back.
{Sydney puts her hand around her silver cross necklace pendant.}
Sydney: What? Why would you even want this?! It’s worthless to you...
Kelly Fox: Maybe it is... but not to you. To you, it’s priceless, it’s everything... I want it. I want to take it from you, I want you to live with the pain that you had to give it to me, I want you to be haunted by the nightmares, reliving that moment over and over again as you hand it to me and watch over and over as I burn it....
Sydney: I can’t...
Kelly Fox: Then leave.
Sydney: Come on! You can’t be serious!
Kelly Fox: I’ve never been more serious in my life! If you want to make things even, if you want to make things right then you’re going to have to make a sacrifice Syd! So you can either quit pretending to be all holier than thou and do as your told, or you can give up the one thing you have left from that two timing whore you called a mom!
{Sydney’s face turns bright red. Steam pours of her ears as Kelly ust smugly smiles.}
Sydney: Stop talking about her like that!
Kelly Fox: Make me.
{Kelly gets virtually nose to nose with Sydney now, smiling arrogantly at her as Sydney tries to calm her rage.}
Sydney: Fine! Me and you... if you win you get everything. I’ll be gone forever and you can have my mom’s pendant... If I win, I get to be Zelda again... I get to have the rights back to my likeness and we’re done with this forever...
Kelly Fox: Deal...but I want some collateral, to just be sure that you go through with this...
{Kelly reaches up and rips the rough leather strip necklace right off from Sydney’s neck and smiles.}
Kelly Fox: This will do.
Sydney: Give it back!
{Sydney suddenly lunges forward shoving Kelly back against her desk with Sydney’s hands wrapped around her neck, hair, anything she can get her hands on. The two women tussle around as Sydney tries to get the necklace back from Kelly for several seconds before security comes rushing back into the room. They each take Sydney by one arm and pull her back, tears flow from her eyes as Kelly stands up while adjusting her blouse and dusts herself off.}
Sydney: GIVE IT BACK! GIVE IT BACK!
Kelly Fox: Wow, so touchy over some useless piece of tin... hey I wonder how I would look in it, Syd... what do you think?
{Kelly takes both ends and looks to put it around here own neck, before Sydney rips herself out of the security crew’s grasp to try and attack again but is quickly subdued right in front of Kelly’s face.}
Sydney: I’ll kill you! I Swear it! I SWEAR TO GOD KELLY! I WILL KILL YOU! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU! Don’t do it! PLEASE!
{Kelly lowers the necklace and smiles again at the sight of Sydney crying hysterically, her face red, tears pouring down rapidly to the floor as she frantically tries to break away and can’t do so. The sight of seeing Sydney likes this, just causes Kelly to be happy.}
Kelly Fox: You know I’m pretty sure there is some law about threatening another person’s life... guys take her out of here and call the local authorities.. If nothing else she should enjoy the view from a nice jail cell for a while... give her time to reflect on all the poor decisions she’s made in life.
{They start to drag the kicking and screaming Sydney out of the office, but Kelly stops them for a moment. She walks up and puts the necklace into Sydney’s jeans pocket.}
Kelly Fox: Cherish it while you can.... it’s going to be mine soon... and then, I’ll never have to look at your face every again, and you’ll know what it’s like to hurt more than words can describe. Get her out of here.
{Sydney actually calms down some as Kelly finishes talking and the security members drag her away, and we fade to another commercial break.Wow, so touchy.}
-------------------------[::COMMERCIAL BREAK::]-------------------------
Eric Hardy: Next match up, Davey Ortega versus Seth Evans.
Dave Holland: Davey has been on a roll these past two weeks. Seth, on the hand, has run into some bad luck.
Willy Carter: Bad luck? You mean just can't hack it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MATCH THREE
Davey Ortega vs. Seth Evans
Singles Match
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{Row by row, the lights throughout the arena all go out. The music has not begun to play. During the black-out, mist has started filling around the stage. It seems to take forever, but is merely just a few seconds until the instruments of "Stand Up" by All That Remains kick in, and the lights begin to flicker until a single spotlight shines up at the top of the stage, shining through the mist to reveal Seth Evans standing there with his arms out to his side, staring out toward the crowd that is cheering for him. A smile on his face, satisfied with the cheers that he is receiving while nodding his head.}
I know no one had ever dreamed that,
We were this strong, and we'd achieve this,
So long the doubt, and all believed it,
And now it's come for all to see, yeah.
{With one swift movement, he punches his fist forward toward the camera in front of him and lunges himself forward before turning his attention back out to the crowd. Walking toward the ring, ready to compete, ready to prove himself. He wastes little time to get into the ring, by sprinting when he reaches the end of the ramp and sliding underneath the bottom rope to get inside the ring. As soon as he's in the ring, he jumps to his feet and goes to the nearest turnbuckle, pointing out to the crowd and giving them a thumbs up. Just by this symbol, the crowd gives him a louder pop and he claps his hands together to applaud the fans as a means to thank them for his support. He jumps from the turnbuckle, spinning 180 degrees, and landing back on his feet in the ring, and waiting for the sound of the bell.}
Eric Hardy: There is Seth Evans, a man who is hungry for gold, in particular the National Championship.
Willy Carter: Why would these people trade a fine champion like The Ace in for a no named loser?
Dave Holland: Regardless, Seth Evans has all the tools needed to be champion.
''Back in the Saddle Again'' hits the speakers as the fans have a mixed reaction. Davey Ortega comes from the back and stand on the entrance way looking to the ring, then eying both sides of the crowed. He walks down the ring with confidence, making his way up the stairs to the apron, he walks to the middle of the apron and turns to acknowledge the fans, raising his hand for a photo opportunity before he gets into the ring and waits.
Willy Carter: Speaking of tools.
Eric Hardy: You just don't like anyone do you?
Willy Carter: I like our World Champion and his friends.
{Davey comes in with a head of steam landing a huge right which knocks Evans into the corner. He lands another right on Evans, then hits a knife edge chop eliciting some ''WOOOsss'' from the crowd. He the whips Evans to the opposite turnbuckle, running and leaping looking for a splash. Though when Davey comes down he crushes his chest into the turnbuckles as Seth was able to move at the last second.}
Eric Hardy: Nobody home!
Dave Holland: That's one way to stop momentum.
{Davey is holding his chest taking a few steps back as Evans takes advantage of this and hits a neck breaker. Seth doesn't stop there as he picks Davey up and hits a snap suplex. Seth is up to his feet and lays a few good kicks on a downed Ortega before picking him up and hitting a snapmare, bouncing off the ropes to drop kick Ortega in the face. Ortega rolls around his pain as Evans gets up and smiles, raising his arms as the fans cheer.}
Eric Hardy: The fans getting behind Evans
Willy Carter: Who cares? These people boo Roberto Verona for God sakes.
Dave Holland: Pay attention Seth. Pay attention Seth...
{If only Seth could hear Dave's words of advice, as he rallies the fans Davey is up and crouched, when Evans turns around Davey sprints and hits the Setting Sun! No! Evans was able to to grab onto Davey's head, crushing it in the mat. Both men are now down.}
Eric Hardy: What a collision...
Dave Holland: Quick thinking by Evans there.
{the ref begins the count..1...2...3..Evans starts showing signs of life...4..5..Davey is now getting up..6..7..Seth is now in his feet, and Davey is soon to follow. Both men slowly circle one another, until the tie up, both struggle to get the upper hand until Davey pushes him to the corner, forcing the ref to break them up. Davey lands a kick to Evans, then a stiff shot to the head and brings him out of the corner and lifts him up, hitting a brain buster before going for the pin. 1..2..No. Evans kicks out and Davey is back to his feet. Davey picks up Evans and tosses him to the ropes, Evans bounces back and Davey is looking for a side walk slam but Evans is able to catch Davey's head with his legs and hits a beautiful head scissors sending Davey to the mat. Evans is to his feet first, Davey is now up but Evans comes in with a dropkick that sends Davey back down. Evans now looks to hit a big move, waiting until Davey is now in his feet and he comes in looking for Bulltrue, but Davey catches his foot, then kicks the leg out from under Seth then drops an elbow on the his knee.}
Eric Hardy: Ouch, Seth's knee can not be feeling good.
Willy Carter: Huh...I forgot Davey can be ruthless at times.
Davey Holland: Or he just didn't know that Seth had a bum knee.
{Either way Seth is screaming in pain and Davey in on his feet and picks up Evans, grabbing the leg with a bad knee and hitting a dragon twist! Seth is down in pain, holding his knee. Davey takes this opportunity to gloat, pointing to his head. Seth though is able to get to on foot, with the held of the ropes, and as Davey turns around he somehow runs and hits the Bulltrue! Well, sort of, Seth wasn't able to hold his footing, but he did crack Davey underneath the jaw the sent Davey down like a sack of potatoes. Seth is slow to get to him but he does cover 1..2..3! NO!, Davey is able to throw his shoulder up. Seth is slams his hands in frustration, wondering what he has to do. Seth is now up, and able to get up under his own power. He picks up Davey and hits a nice Spinebuster, he then goes to the turnbuckle closest to them, climbing it and the fans now what it's time for. He's up and goes for The Clutch Moment! Only to be met with knees of Davey Ortega. Seth rolls around in pain, holding his stomach as Davey is now in the corner again, Seth is slow to his feet and turns around at the wrong time. Davey hits the Setting Sun, this time with out fail. He goes for the pin. 1..2..3..Davey Ortega wins.}
Eric Hardy: Davey picks up a win here.
Willy Carter: Against Seth Evans, nothing to pop champagne over.

Lex Sense
“Question”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/center][/b]
{The cameras cut backstage where we see Roberto Verona, title over his shoulder, walking down the hallway. He ignores some stagehands greeting the champion as he's only interested in his destination. He reaches a door labeled CEO and proceeds to knock three time before letting himself. Once the door is opened he spots Lex Sense hunched over Kelly Fox as they appear to be enthralled in conversation. A conversation that quickly ends when they notice Roberto standing there.}
Roberto Verona: Am I... Interrupting something?
Kelly Fox: Not at all. Lex was just telling me something funny. Weren't you big guy?
{She smiles up at Lex who doesn't say a word and just stares unblinkingly at Roberto for a few seconds before nodding in agreement.}
Kelly Fox: What can I do for you, champ?
Roberto Verona: I was coming in here to discuss business but now I think I want to hear something funny. So please, by all means, Lex, share with the class.
{Kelly shoots suspicious glances from Lex to Roberto as Sense practically growls. He takes Roberto's request as him ordering him around and it doesn't make him happy. Sense walks around Fox's desk and stands in front of Roberto, starin at him before finally speaking.}
Lex Sense: You wouldn't find it funny... Champ.
{Sense then smiles in his face and walks around him as he heads out the door. Roberto stares at him until he's completely gone before turning to Kelly.}
Roberto Verona: Should I be worried?
Kelly Fox: Have I ever given you reason to be? Please, have a seat.
{Roberto closes the door on the camera as they cut back to ringside.}
