<strong>Hudson:</strong> Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. I'm Scott Hudson...</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> ...and I'm Joel Gertner.</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> ...and this is the new era of ECW!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Well, we've got a packed card with three title matches and a Masters of Pain qualifying match. So, let's get to it.</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> It's very unlike you to be to the point, Joel.</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Well, Scotty boy, I can't deal with any of your inane babbling.</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Yes, of course... I'm the one that talks gratuitously.</p><p> </p><p>

The tag title match starts evenly. However, soon, D-Von has started to overpower Sal Thomaselli.</p><p>

The young Italian is lifted up in a military press and thrown from the ring.</p><p>

Brandon immediately jumps through the ropes and starts beating down D-Von.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> What the hell? There was no tag...</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> All tag matches are under modified lucha libre rules now, Joel. Have you been living under a rock?</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> The only rocks I'm interesterd in...</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Finish that sentence and I'll smack you... I swear to god.</p><p> </p><p>

D-Von drops to the floor and rolls under the ropes to the outside, allowing Bubba to turn the tables as the new legal man.</p><p>

Bubba's size and strength give him a clear advantage and the first Undisputed Tag Champs get on a roll.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>That is until their militant cousin shows up.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/SlykDudley.jpg</span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

STD slides into the ring with a baseball bat and starts battering his uncles' brains.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> This kid's a psychopath!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> He's a no good ni...</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> JOEL!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> ...nimble-footed madcap. What?</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Is that a line from Henry IV?!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Yeah... see I can be refined... and you were expecting me to say ni...</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> JOEL!</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>Suddenly, the Big Balbutient Behemoth of Dudleyville strides down the aisle-way with a chair.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/DickDudley.jpg</span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

He slides ninto the ring as STD swings the bat at him...</p><p>

...but Dick blocks it with the chair.</p><p>

As Slyk and Dick start pummeling each other with weapons, the Thomasellis and the Dudley Boyz re-involve themselves.</p><p>

A 3-on-3 brawl breaks out.</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Referee, Jim Molineaux ,exits the ring to speak to Bob Artese.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bob Artese:</strong> Ladies and Gentelmen, referee, Jim Molineaux, has ruled this match a no contest. However, it will be restarted...</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> They can't make it a six-man-tag, surely. How could the belts change hands?</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Artese and Molineaux continue to converse as the brawl in the ring continues.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bob Artese:</strong> It will be restarted as a Three Way Dance...</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> What?!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bob Artese:</strong> Thomaselli-Thomaselli '08 versus The Dudley Boyz versus Slyk and Dick Dudley!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Wow!</p><p> </p><p>

The Thomasellis and The Dudleyz continue their brawl as Slyk and Dick, seemingly incapable of co-exiting fight their way to the outside of the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>The lights fade and, as they return, a huge pop is heard.</em></p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> It's ECW's new enforcer!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> What the hell is going on right now?</p><p> </p><p>

<em>The Sandman makes his way through the crowd and climbs over the guard-rail.</em></p><p> </p><p>

He canes the crap out of Dick Dudley Jr and slides Slyk into the ring.</p><p>

Molineaux sends Brandon and Bubba out to the apron.</p><p>

Finally, the match continues as a Three Way Dance.</p><p>

Satisfied with his interjection, Sandman exits as quickly as he entered.</p><p>

The contest becomes an even encounter with all three legal men seeing a lot of offence.</p><p>

The Thomasellis and the Dudley Boyz continue to make tags.</p><p>

Meanwhile Dick Jr has no choice but to wait on the apron as Slyk refuses to tag him in.</p><p>

Eventually, STD makes the mistake of coming too close to his own corner.</p><p>

Dick grabs him by the back of the neck, turns him around and suplexes him over the rope to the concrete.</p><p>

Dick slides into the ring, making himself the legal man in the process.</p><p>

Brandon goes to cut him off... but ois booted in the gut for his troubles.</p><p>

TOTAL PENETRATION!</p><p>

Dick motions for his uncle Bubba to cover.</p><p> </p><p>

1...</p><p> </p><p>

STD shakes the cobwebs away, climbs onto the apron, reaches over the ropes and hauls Dick Jr out of the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

2...</p><p> </p><p>

Slyk steps in and breaks up the count.</p><p>

He rolls his uncle over...</p><p>

....BOSTON CRABS!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Bubba's got crabs!</p><p> </p><p>

Bubba taps!</p><p>

<strong>Bob Artese:</strong> Your winners... and NEW...</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> No way!</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Haha, brilliant!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bob Artese:</strong> ...ECW Undisputed Tag Team Champions... Slyk and Dick Dudley!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Talk about a clusterf**k!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"Cowboys From Hell" by Pantera blares over the PA speakers.</em></p><p><em>

"Luke Warm" Austin Texas flashes across the big screen and "The Prototype" Andrew Martin steps out from the back wearing a bald wig.</em></p><p><em>

He wears skimpy black trunks, a leather cowboy vest and large black knee braces.</em></p><p><em>

On the back of his vest it reads "Don't Trust Austin".</em></p><p><em>

He grabs a microphone and slides into the ring.</em></p><p><em>

However, before talking, he motions to Bob Artese to throw him a beer.</em></p><p><em>

Artese obliges but "Austin" fails to catch it and it hits him directly in the face.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Martin:</strong> If you think Austin Texas catches like a girl, gimme a hell yeah!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"HELL YEAH!"</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Martin:</strong> If you think Austin Texas is a no-good little sellout, gimme a hell yeah!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"HELL YEAH!</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Martin:</strong> If you're gonna spend your hard earned money on wathing my "What's Workrate?" Federation title reign, gimme a hell yeah!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>There is complete silence.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Texas:</strong> That's what I thought! You see, I'm the kinda jackass who wastes promoters like Paul E's time and money by demanding a push and then f**king off to join the competition as soon as I get over! And, then, I go ahead and nick Sandman's gimmick because I can't think of one for myself!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>There is a huge pop.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Martin:</strong> ...and that's the bottom line...</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"...Cos Luke Warm said so."</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Martin:</strong> ...'cos I gotta rely on sh*tty catchphrases to get over!</p><p> </p><p>

Martin wipes the floor with Mahoney.</p><p>

He eventually boots him in the gut for the LUke Warm Stunner.</p><p>

1...2...3!</p><p>

<strong>Angle:</strong> There is only one Olympic gold medallist in the history of ECW and, at November To Remember Fifteen, I proved thatI am better than Jerry Lynn. Since Jerry has long been put on this pedestal of hard work and dedication, too me, that signifies that I am better than anyone in this whole promotion. So, you better believe I'm coming for that World Title Burchill and these new stipulations suit me just fine. The fact is, five minute rounds or not, this isn't the British independents; this is big-time American wrestling, I am Kurt Angle... and you... will TAP OUT!</p><p> </p><p>

Guerrera continues in his fantastic form.</p><p>

Even Eddie Guerrero seems to be comfortably handled by the new TV Champ.</p><p>

With Francine cheering from ringside, Juvi puts away his opponent with the Juvi Driver.</p><p>

<em>Chris Hero struts down to the ring, offering his hand for the crowd to slap.</em></p><p><em>

No one takes him up on the offer.</em></p><p><em>

He grabs a microphone from ringside and steps through the ropes.</em></p><p><em>

He clears his throat...</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> He's gotta be strong</p><p>

And he's gotta be fast</p><p>

And he's gotta be fresh from the fight</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Oh, not this again...</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> He's gotta be sure</p><p>

And he's gotta be larger than life</p><p> </p><p>

<em>The boos are deafening.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> Those, ladies and gentlemen, are the legendary Bonnie Tyler's requirements for the role of "hero" to be bestowed upon an exceptional individual. So, let's see...</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Do we really have to sit through this?</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> He's gotta be strong... Well, at November To Remember, I managed to climb up the turnbuckle using only my upper body and break out of The Liontamer. So, that point doesn't seem to be in question. He's gotta be fast... hell, did you see the speed with which I turned that escape into a neckbreaker reversal?</p><p> </p><p>

<em>BOO!</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> Now, now, ladies and gentlemen, envy is not a becoming emotion.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Nor is arrogance.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> Fresh from the fight? Well, I just qualified for the Masters of Pain finals last week, at the expense of the supposed "Innovator of Violence" no less. So, I clearly live up to that expectation too. Finally, though, I can sum up my sure and larger than life qualities in one simple sentence: by this time next month, I will be the World Heavyweight Champion!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Who does he think he's kidding?</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> I believe him.</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> You would.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hero:</strong> That's right, consider it a hero's promise... I will emerge victorious from the Masters of Pain tournament, advance to the main event at Got Blood? and take out Paul Burchill. Raven may not have been able to do it but even he was lacking the aforementioned heroic qualities. Good night and god bless America.</p><p> </p><p>

<em>The jeers do not stop until long after Hero has stepped back through the curtain.</em></p><p> </p><p>

The match is a hardcore slugfest from the very start, fully living up to the legacy of the Masters of Pain tournament.</p><p>

Cactus Jack seems to maintain a slight advantage, though, attacking like a man possessed.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>That is until Nate Hatred emerges from the back with James Mitrchell.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/NateHatred.jpg</span><span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JamesMitchell.jpg</span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

The Sinister Minister points to the ring with his cane and Hatred sprints down the aisle-way and rolls into the squared circle.</p><p>

Cactus turns to face him...</p><p>

DECAPITATOR LARIAT!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Oh my god... the impact of that damn Clothesline... it's sickening!</p><p> </p><p>

Hatred looks up to find himself face-to-face (well, face-to-chest) with Mark Calaway.</p><p> </p><p>

<em>"F**K HIM UP 'TAKER, F**K HIM UP!"</em></p><p> </p><p>

Blows are traded back and forth as the crowd goes wild.</p><p>

"The Soul Taker" whips Hatred to the ropes.</p><p>

He rebounds as Taker sticks his boot up...</p><p>

...but Hatred ducks underneath.</p><p>

ECW's NME rebounds again...</p><p>

...DECAPITATOR LARIAT!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> DAMN!</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> ...and, as quick as a flash, the giant is down.</p><p> </p><p>

At that moment, John Finnegan reaches the ten-count and Cactus Jack is ruled knocked out.</p><p>

<em>He slides in and swings the cane at Hatred...</em></p><p><em>

...but the "New Main Event" catches it and rips it from Dreamer's grasp.</em></p><p><em>

A huge cane shot to the head of The Innovator of Violence.</em></p><p><em>

But Dreamer just shrugs it off and another trading of blows ensues.</em></p><p><em>

Cactus Jack scrambles to his feet and boots Hatred in the gut.</em></p><p><em>

The Innovators set up Hatred for the Double DDT...</em></p><p><em>

...but Hatred pushes them away...</em></p><p><em>

DOUBLE DECAPITATOR!</em></p><p><em>

Hatred smiles demonically before rolling from the ring and heading to the back with Mitchell.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Wow... you can tell where Hatred has been just from the trail of destruction!</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Well, there's two more hardcore legends firmly on his hit list looking as though they are going to be added to his already impressive list of conquests.</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Not to mention an unconscious giant in his wake.</p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> Wow...</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Exactly!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>RVD:</strong> Fairplay, bro. You had me at N2R but you gotta know I want a rematch.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Michaels:</strong> Oh, I know... and, since we're both in Masters of Pain Qualifiers, let's hope it happens sooner rather than later, eh?</p><p> </p><p>

<em>The camera cuts back to ringside and Raven's Nest and Vito Thomaselli make heir way to ringside.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<em>Gold confetti falls from the rafters as a spotlight follows the World Heavyweight Champion down the aisle-way.</em></p><p><em>

The gold paper sparkles as the few rays of light reflect upon it.</em></p><p><em>

Burchill wears his yellow and black boxing-style ring robe with "New Franchise" written across the back.</em></p><p><em>

As is now customary, he is accompanied by his mentor and his girlfriend.</em></p><p><em>

Douglas proudly carries his protege's title for all to see but many eyes concentrate more on the the strikingly skimpy bikini which Kelly wears.</em></p><p><em>

As they reach the apron, Burchill and Douglas hold the ropes apart for Kelly to step through.</em></p><p><em>

She pose in the middle of the ring as Douglas hands Burchill his title.</em></p><p><em>

The World Heavyweight Champion steps through the ropes and, as he lifts his belt high in the air, gold fireworks rise from the turnbuckles.</em></p><p><em>

As the arena lights return, the atmosphere could be cut with a knife.</em></p><p> </p><p>

The fans are ecstatic to see the World Champion in action as the match kicks off and, sure enough, the faces seem to control the tempo early on.</p><p>

However, when Punk and Vito become the legal men, Punk's use of dirty tactics starts to take its toll.</p><p>

He receives several warnings from the referee in view of the new DQ rule but he takes no notice and Molineaux seems unwilling to call for the bell.</p><p>

As the match continues as a fairly even contest, everyone awaits the inevitable interference.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>...and it comes, sure enough, in the tenth minute.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Abyss2.jpg</span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

The Monster Abyss dteps into the ring and immediately falltens Vito with a Black Hole Slam.</p><p> </p><p>

<em>The lights cut out again and a huge pop is heard.</em></p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><em>As they return, "The Human Highlight Reel" is in the ring with a chair.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Sabu2.jpg</span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

YThe metalwork is thrown directly into Abyss' face and the monster falls through the ropes to the floor.</p><p>

Sabu rushes out after him, delivering several stiff chair shots to the monster's back.</p><p>

The referee joins the crowd in watching Sabu banish Abyss to the locker room.</p><p>

However, he turns back to the action just in time to see CM Punk land a lowblow on Vito Thomaselli.</p><p>

That is enough; Molineaux calls for the bell.</p><p>

Burchill and Vito win via a DQ.</p><p>

<strong>Match Rating:</strong> B+</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hudson:</strong> How good is it to see that, thanks to this new CoDE, the Nest can no longer dominate through gamesmanship and foul play?</p><p>

<strong>Gertner:</strong> Yeah, Punk's gonna need a whole new game plan at this rate.</p><p> </p><p>

T'riffic stuff as always Nevermore. Have you managed to find time to put shows up more commonly then?

 

The banter between Gertner and Hudson is great and always fun to read inbetween segements.

 

I like that your implementing the new each show. I love see Sandman and Sabu caning the hell out of people.

 

Nate Hatred is on fire! Double Decapitator! I really can't see him being stopped. I think if he continues on his path of destroying legends though he'll run into Douglas meaning a feud with Burchill could be on the cards.

 

RVD/Michaels no.2? Yes please.

 

Rhino always been a favourite of mine so I love to see him goring the hell out of anybody in sight. I was hoping he'd take the Masters of Pain crown, but if he's going after the title then that ain't gonna happen. I guess I'll have to wait and see...

There is a reason why this gets more feedback per show than any other real life diary, buddy. Look at the responses, what exactly can I add to that? What I will say is Nate Hatred was handled brilliantly there and he genuinely seems like a star for you, like one of the main guys on the roster and that's entirely down to how you have portrayed him. It must be tough when someone takes off in the game without any real meaning (like I know you said Hatred did) but you've established him so well I could see him as one of the very biggest names in the company.

 

Also, Rhino is just fantastic at the moment, the perfect ECW wrestler. He;s archaic, aggressive, mean, vicious, a bully, he is perfect for this company and it's a perfect role for him. Loving it.

 

All in all, there isn't much to add aside from there is a reason that EVERYONE thinks this is the best RW diary on here, ever.

Thank you very much, mate.

 

...and, on a point of information, Hatred has just broken A* overness in Tri-State and South West (?! of all places). The man is on fire. Funny when I think my initial plan for him was to be on the losing end of a Rhino feud and head back to development :D.

Confirmed for Blood, Sweat & Beers:

 

 

 

Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Hero

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/EddieGuerrero.jpgvshttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisHero.jpg

 

Eddie Guerrero, one of the most surprsing absentees of ECW programming, returns to the ring to face the self-proclaimed "Saviour of ECW". Guerrero will surely be looking to make an impact but with Chris Hero on a remarkable run of good form, this could be easier said than done.

Mika Akino faces Lioness Champion, Alexis, in a rematch from Monday Night's Revolution. Will her luck prove any better?

 

 

Nate Hatred vs. Tommy Dreamer

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/NateHatred.jpgvshttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TommyDreamer.jpg

 

The Hardcore Innovators appear to be the next two hardcore legends on Nate Hatred's extreme hitlist as he tries to, effectively, destroy the legacy of Extreme Championship Wrestling. He has cost both Innovators a spot in the Masters of Pain finals and, now, "The Innovator of Violence" wants vengeance. However, "ECW's NME" will be some of the toughest competition Dreamer has ever faced and, after the carnage witnessed on Monday, the odds must surely be on Hatred continuing his undefeated streak.

 

 

 

ECW Undisputed Tag Team Title Match

The two Dudley cousins shockingly won the tag team titles on Monday after a match between their uncles and the Thomaselli brothers was restarted as a Three Way Dance. With tensions between the inbred champs running high and their uncle's being on the war path, this may be the very opening ECW's presidential candidates need.

 

 

 

Masters of Pain Qualifier

The Great Sasuke vs. Rob Van Dam

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/GreatSasuke.jpgvshttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpg

 

In the third Masters of Pain qualifying match witnessed this year, two world-class high-fliers do battle as The Great Sasuke meets Rob Van Dam. With a place in the quarter-finals on offer, this is sure to be one hell of a confrontation.

 

 

 

Number One Contendership Match

Rhino vs. Vito Thomaselli

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Rhyno.jpgvshttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/VitoThomaselli2.jpg

 

In the biggest main event of the new era so far, Rhino and Vito Thomaselli are set to throw down. Both men have laid claim to a title shot against "The New Franchise". While Burchill seemed glad to grant a match to Vito, Rhino undeniably proved himself as one of the most dominant forces in ECW on Monday, detroying everything in his path.

 

Therefore, Paul Heyman has decided this match for the number one contendership is the only correct solution. The winner will face "The New Franchise" for the title at Masters of Pain while the loser will be entered into the tournament itself.

You are doing such a great job of building him up, I really want to see him be the monster challenger for Burchill's title while you continue to make Vito such a big name for you. Question- did you intend for Vito to become such a big part of your company from the start or is he another Hatred?

 

Looks like a great show buddy.

This diary has actually made me a fan of Vito in real life. I've checked out a few videos on Youtube and I'm impressed. Thanks for that, Nevvy. But Rhino will take the victory here. You're really building him into the machine that I remember from the Original ECW.

Question- did you intend for Vito to become such a big part of your company from the start or is he another Hatred?

 

Looks like a great show buddy.

 

Firstly, thank you.

 

Secondly... I kind of intended it for Vito; kind of not. Essentially, my initial plan was to take all three Thomaselli brothers from absolute nothings to reasonably over midcard talents just to bring in somefresh blood. However I guess it was always slightly written in stone that Vito would take off before the others what with him being the main mouthpiece for the "religious crusade".

 

My plans really changed for him because his in-ring skills improved very quickly. So, it's been a constant growing process since. He outgrew the "crusade" so I stuck him with Franny and the TV title. The NaE needed a new young member so I stuck him in there and then he outgrew that so I turned him face and, at the moment, he's mostly at A overness throughout the states, mainly due to his chemistry and phenomenal matches with Punk. So, now, he's someone who I could realistically give the strap to at any point but I seem to always have other ideas for him; I find him very easy to write for.

 

He's undoubtedly a main event draw now, so, the new plan is to elevate Brandon and Sal to that level (most likely in that order) because their stats are starting to look pretty healthy too. The reason I haven't put much effort into this whole "presidential campaign" story is because I've got something much bigger in the pipeline for them which is just about kicking off.

 

So, yeah, I guess Vito was always designed to be a big name (unlike Hatred), he just took off far quicker than expected.

 

The main event pool has lowered in terms of total overness (I had some A* talents before whereas, now, their mostly at A and B+) but the difference is there are so many now and I can feed them in and out of the midcard/main event as I see fit. Maybe I'm biased but, to me at least, anyone out of Burchill, Rhino, Vito, Hero, Hatred, Jericho, Calaway and Punk could be viable title holders with just a bit of storyline momentum. And Michaels and RVD can be pushed to that point at any time as well. So, I'm really happy with my roster at the moment; I think it's a lot more coherent than it has been.

 

Plus, now I'm relying far less on hardcore brawlers, I have a genuine shot at getting an international PPV deal and taking on the Federation properly. For the first time in 13 years game time, there is actually a tangible opportunity to become promotion numero uno - partly what the whole new era is all about.

 

EDIT: Sorry, really long reply :p

That's one of the aspects of real world projects that I've very much come to enjoy as a reader. Not just the workers that the writer is choosing to push differently from how they were/are/would be in reality, but the ones where the games basically necessitates its. Its also cool on CV diaries, but moreson on RW projects. Its always an aspect that facinated me... being forced to present a certain worker in a different way than intended because the game essentially pushes you to that.

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW Blood, Sweat and Beers. I'm Joey Styles and , of course, alongside me is former World Heavyweight Champion and ECW Triple Crown winner, Taz.

Taz: Cheers for the intro, Joey... man am I psyched for this one? Two titles on the line, a Masters of Pain qualifier and a number one contender's match for the World Title.

Joey: It certainly looks like this new era is set to bring some of the best wrestling action ever witnessed in ECW, Taz.

Taz: Damn straight, Joey, and we already have our fair share of tension shaking the place up.

Joey: Like the apparent situation between Vito and Rhino?

Taz: Oh, no doubt, man, but I gotta be honest, I can't wait to see what goes down with Slyk and Dick tonight.

Joey: Well, since we're all so excited to see it, I say we get straight to the ring.

Dick Jr: So, I said "No, sir, I ain't no cross-dresser, I'm just curious".

 

Daizy: Err... babe.

 

Dick turns around to see his annoying STD problem has returned.

He stands up, ready to fight.

 

Dick Jr: Mumma always said STDs were hard to get rid of but I'm willing to try. The way I see it, Dick and STD shoudn't mix.

 

Daizy rolls her eyes.

 

STD: Nah, my brotha, you got it all wrong. I'm here to make love not war.

 

Daizy: Do me a favour and don't use the term "make love" in this context again.

 

Slyk and Dick look at each other and shrug their shoulders, oblivious.

 

Dick Jr: What you mean, couz?

 

STD: I mean I'm made out to be this militant bad ass. Well, I am this militant bad ass but that don't mean I don't want what's good for the Dudleyz.

 

Dick Jr: What you mean, couz?

 

STD: I mean I'm just like you, Dick.

 

Dick Jr: What you mean, couz?

 

STD sighs in response to his cousin's stupidity.

 

STD: I have a dream, Dick.

 

Dick Jr: What dream, couz?

 

STD: I have a dream that one day the Dudley family will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all Dudleyz are created equal."

 

Daizy gasps.

 

Daizy: Martin Luther Dudley...

 

STD: You damn right, sista. Like our great uncle Martin, I have a dream that one day even the city of Dudleyville, a city sweltering with the heat of flaming tables, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

 

Daizy and Dick look shocked.

 

STD: ...for Dudleyz.

 

They now nod in agreement.

 

STD: I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a Dudleyville where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their wrestling trunks.

 

Daizy frowns.

 

Daizy: Aisha pregnant again?

 

STD: Yessum.

 

Dick Jr: What this got to do with me?

 

STD: You and I, Dick, have the chance to change our anscestors' fate. You see, there is a family secret. The same family secret I have mentioned before... and whatever it is, it concerns us all as well as the fruit of our over-productive loins.

 

Dick Jr: 'Kay...

 

STD: All I want is to find out what that secret is and now we have the necessary leverage over our uncles to get that answer.

 

Dick Jr: The Tag Titles?

 

STD: You're not as dumb as you look.

 

Dick Jr: No I ain't! Mumma always said I was dumber!

 

STD: Point is I may be one militant mofo but an angry nigga ain't nothin' without a big Dick on his side.

 

Dick Jr: Shucks... okay then.

 

STD: Glad to have you on-board, my brotha.

 

Daizy: How fitting.

 

STD: What?

 

Daizy: The fate of the entire Dudley nation rests on a Dick and his STD!

 

The camera cuts back to the announcers who are both open-mouthed.

 

Taz: You know we've got a contract extension due with FX in February?

Joey: Yeah.

Taz: I don't think we have anymore.

Alexis doesn't seem to care; she picks up the win with the Alexis Effect at 5:42

Match Rating: E+

 

However, as the bell rings, two large figures stride down the aisle-way.

Taz: It's Kong! Kong's back from APW!

Joey: And is that Prince Nana with her?

Taz: ...of ROH fame?

Joey: The one and only.

 

Alexis turns round to be flattened by a huge bodycheck from Kong.

Prince Nana laughs and signals for Kong to finish the job.

SIT-OUT POWERBOMB!

The behemoth leaves as quickly as she arrived.

 

Taz: Wow... I think Alexis is dead.

Some might say it's surprising; some might say otherwise but Hatred completely destroys Dreamer.

What certainly is surprising is that Cactus Jack does not appear.

Dreamer falls prey to a deafening Decapitator Lariat in the eleventh minute.

Match Rating: B

 

As Hatred cracks his knuckles, The Sinister Minister picks up a microphone.

 

Mitchell: One "Hardcore Innovator" down; one to go. But let me just clear something up for you all. The only reason why Nathan is not destroying Tommy Dreamer before your eyes, crippling the man who built this company in front of the fans who love him is because it's just too easy. Oh, sure, Nate has beaten Tommy and I'm sure he'll beat good old Cactus Jack in the coming weeks but there is just no challenge in that.

 

Taz: Wow, talk about a slap in the face.

Joey: Thing is, Taz, I get the feeling that Mitchell may be right. In all my fifteen years in ECW, I have never seen anyone so dominant as Nate Hatred!

 

Mitchell: So, Nathan here is waiting 'til Got Blood? You see, he will end both Cactus and Tommy's careers in a handicap match!

 

Taz: He's requesting a handicap match?! Damn...

 

Mitchell: Nate Hatred brings back the true meaning of the term "handicap match". He is so extreme, so brutal and so fearless that he requires a handicap to be anything close to fair competition. They say those who live by the sword die by the sword and, Cactus; Tommy, you will both suffer the most horrifying legacy of the hardcore bloodsport you have pioneered!

 

Suddenly, Nate Hatred grabs the microphone.

 

Joey: My god, is the monster going to speak?

 

Hatred smiles and begins smashing the handle of the microphone into bis forehead.

He continues this until he starts to bleed.

He then slams down the microphone and storms to the back.

 

Taz: Actions speak louder than words I guess...

The crowd seems to have warmed to Slyk & Dick as a "Let's go Dudleyz" chant starts up at the bell.

They seem to feed off the energy and, with a little help from Daizy, the new champs control the match well.

In the sixth minute, Dick Jr delivers some Total Penetration to Sal.

Meanwhile, STD applies the Boston Crabs to Brandon.

Brandon taps as Sal is covered for a three-count.

Match Rating: C-

 

Joey: Well, this newly-founded unholy alliance looks like it may be quite impressive.

Taz: Look out, Joey.

 

Taz reacts to Slyk & Dick's relatives hopping over the guard rail.

Slyk, Dick and Daizy bail before the inevitable assault can begin.

Annoyed, Bubba kicks the bottom rope.

He then turns and sees the Thomasellis out cold.

He shouts for D-Von to grab a chair.

 

Taz: Oh no!

 

D-Von brings a chair into the ring.

Bubba wraps it around Brandon's head as Ultimo Dudley II heads up top.

 

Joey: Good lord, no.

 

Ultimo Dudley II jumps off, delivering a Double Foot Stomp which crushes Brandon's skull beneath the steel chair.

 

Taz: Holy crap!

 

The inappropriate display of jazz hands from the "Angry Asian Inbred" only adds to the fans' sense of confusion.

Ultimo Dudley then proceeds to set up a table at ringside.

Bubba lifts Sal Thomaselli onto D-Voin's shoulders...

Powerbomb over the ropes, through the table to the concrete floor!

 

Joey: OH MY GOD! The Dudleyz are on the warpath...

Taz: ...and the Thomaselli brothers were in the way.

 

The camera cuts to Cactus Jack backstage.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpg

 

He sits in a lonely corner of the arena, surrounded by technical equipment and randomly discarded crap. He speaks calmly, like an old man reminiscing about his youth.

 

Cactus: In this modern world, circus freaks don't exist. It's no longer acceptable to point and laugh at the disfigured man or the unattractive lady. The fact is I'm as close as you can get to a circus freak now. When I sign autographs, everyone wants to see my missing ear, my broken teeth and my various unsightly scars. As hard as it may be for people to hear, I am nothing but a plaything for society's most depraved perverts. No, these sorts of perverts don't relish sexual fetishes or male domination over women but they are no less deranged. You see, these sick minded individuals revel in the torture and pain of their fellow human beings. But you know the funny thing? This is not a condemnation...

 

He pulls on his hair and screams deafeningly.

 

Cactus: I'M SICK TOO! I'M MORE SICK THAN THEY ARE!

 

He sighs deeply as though he is releasing the burden of a lifetime.

 

Cactus: You call yourself extreme, Nate Hatred, because you cripple people but you know why I'm more extreme than you? I'M THE CRIPPLE! I'M THE SICK AND TWISTED F**K WHO ACTUALLY ENJOYS THAT PAIN! Fact is, Nate, I've already lost an ear and half my teeth and there's nothing you can do to me which I won't be able to tolerate. You can take my eye. Hell, you can take my arm and I'll keep coming back. I MIGHT EVEN ENJOY IT, NATE! I MIGHT JUST LIKE IT! More than that, Nate, taking physical punishment is the only thing I've ever been good at in life and I've been rewarded handsomely for it. The more broken and ugly my body becomes, the more handsome the paycheck I get. So, why not take both my eyes, Nate?! IT MIGHT LEAVE ME BLIND BUT IT'LL PUT DEWEY THROUGH UNIVERSITY! WHY NOT SET MY FACE ON FIRE?! IT'LL PAY FOR MY FAMILY'S MEDICAL INSURANCE!

 

He calms himself once more.

 

Cactus: That's the thing, Nate. Unlike you, I have no undefeated streak. Unlike Tommy, I don't have good looks or an athletic body. You can beat me but you can never destroy me because this body just won't seem to die no matter how much anyone thinks it should just give up. So, bring it on Nate. I may not be able to say "that which doesn't kill me, makes me stronger" but it certainly makes me richer and, you Nate, are going to make me a very rich man...

 

...BANG BANG!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StevenRichards.jpg

Stevie turns around... SWEET CHIN MUSIC!

Michaels picks up a microphone.

 

Michaels: Good job, man. I hope to see you in the finals.

 

Number One Contendership Match

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Rhyno.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/VitoThomaselli2.jpg

The two men put on an excellent display in their bid to challenge for the title.

Rhino clearly holds the advantage in power but Vito's speed and cunning keeps the match even.

In the fourteenth minute, Rhino hits the Gore!

However, frather than cover, he exits the ring and sets up a table nexct to the apron.

He re-enters and drags Vito out to the apron.

 

Joey: He's gonna break his neck!

Taz: It ain't a good night to be a Thomaselli!

 

However, the World Heavyweight Champion sprints out from the back.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchillNF2.jpg

 

Rhino drops Thomaselli and re-enters the ring, awaiting Burchill's arrival.

The champ slides in... GORE!

 

Taz: Damn!

 

Burchill rolls to the outside, clutching his ribs.

Meanwhile, Vito rolls back under the ropes and clambers to his feet.

Rhino lays in a haymaker... but it is blocked.

A trading of blows ensues and the match kicks off again.

In the sixteenth minute, Rhino boots Vito in the gut and sets him up for a Rhino Driver.

However, Burchill slides in with a chair.

Rhino releases his grasp of Vito and turns to face the champion.

Burchill swings the chair...

Rhino ducks and Vito is laid out-cold.

GORE TO THE CHAMPION!

 

Joey: A second Gore to "The New Franchise"!

Taz: ...and Vito's out as well!

 

Rhino covers Thomaselli.

1...2...3!

Match Rating: A
