Manhattan Center
New York City, New York
Wednesday, August 25th 2013
-------------------------
["Strife” by TRIVIUM is playing over the PA as the FULL THROTTLE opening video package plays. Highlighting the big moments from the last several weeks.]
My anxiety's clawing
Out from deep within me
It burns within as my throat begins to cauterize
[Footage of the final World Grand Prix match is shown-with Troy Stone escaping with the victory.]
This negativity's leeching
Any shred of composure
Rationale has decayed and left me bound in madness
[Elijah Black is shown with the World Title]
I reach for calm
I starve for a balance unknown
This burden tortures me deep in my soul
[Footage of Timothy Hunt is shown-holding up his briefcase]
I've found that strife won't make the bleeding stop
Nor will it take away the pain
I feel like this search is all in vain
And I struggle to find my way
[Footage of David Wilson and Anton Chases rivalry is shown, mixed with footage of other stars on the event-as we cut to the arena where pyro shoots up.]
Chris Caudill: NEW YORK CITY! Welcome to PWX FULL THROTTLE 2013!
[Pyro shoots up as the camera pans around the Manhattan Center!]
Ricky Cravate: We are LIVE from the famous Manhattan Center in New York-and it is FULL THROTTLE TONIGHT!
Chris Caudill:The World Championship is on the line, as Elijah Black defends against Troy Stone and Timothy Hunt!
Ricky Cravate: Plus tonight, a huge grudge match between Nighthawk and Jason Aries!
Chris Caudill: Plus, the Hybrid Championship is up for grabs, as the independent darling Anton Chase faces off against David Wilson!
Ricky Cravate: And a rivalry that has grown personal. Preston Parker challenges Ryan Kidd for the Evolution Title!
------------------------
As "Nightmare" by Avenged Sevenfold starts up on the PA system the lights go dark as a trail of fire starts up on each side of the ramp starting from the stage and going towards the ring.
Nightmare!
(Now your nightmare comes to life)
Dragged ya down below
Down to the devil's show
To be his guest forever
(Peace of mind is less than never)
Hate to twist your mind
But God ain't on your side
An old acquaintance severed
(Burn the world your last endeavor)
Nightmare appears on the stage as the lights come back on, flashing white and red in rhythm with the music. Smoke starts to coat the floor of the stage and the ramp. Pushing a stretcher towards center stage as he grins looking out at the fans. He starts lining the stretcher up with the ring.
Flesh is burning
You can smell it in the air
Cause men like you have
Such an easy soul to steal (steal)
So stand in line while
They ink numbers in your head
You're now a slave
Until the end of time here
Nothing stops the madness,
Turning, haunting, yearning
Pull the trigger
Taking a few steps back from the stretcher he runs towards it and jumps onto to it body surfing it down the ramp towards the ring. Turning the stretcher side ways as it closes in on the ring it hits the ring with it's side and comes to a stop as Nightmare rolls under the ropes into the ring.
You should have known
The price of evil
And it hurts to know
That you belong here, yeah
Ooh, it's your fuckin' nightmare
(While your nightmare comes to life)
Standing up he moves to the ring ropes to his right, putting on foot on the bottom rope and his other on the second as he stands on the ropes, using one hand to keep balance. Bringing a fist up to his throat with the thumb extended he performs a slow cutthroat taunt before spitting a red mist into the air towards the fans with a grin on his face.
Can't wake up in sweat
'Cause it ain't over yet
Still dancing with your demons
(Victim of your own creation)
Beyond the will to fight
Where all that's wrong is right
Where hate don't need a reason
(Loathing self-assassination)
Climbing down from the ropes Nightmare makes his way to his corner of the ring and sits down in the corner as he waits for his opponent as his music fades out and the lights return to normal.
Chris Caudill: Opening match time here at Full Throttle-and we have Tag Team Action!
Ricky Cravate: That’s right. We will FINALLY see who Noah Hanson has selected as his replacement partner!
"Get Real" roars through the PA system as Adam Stryker walks out on the stage, hearing a chorus of boos. Dressed in his ring attire and a black leather jacket, he takes a long look at the crowd while taking a last smoke from his cigarette. He throws the cigarette butt on the ground before slowly walking to the ring.
Alexis Lace: "From Los Angeles, California, weighting in at 220 pounds, representing The Bad Attitude... "The Loose Cannon"... ADAAAAAAAM... STRYYYYYYYKEEEEEEER!"
Adam takes off the jacket and hands it to a ring crew member before climbing on the apron. He slingshots himself to the ring and gets on the top rope, where he performs a cut-throat taunt as his music slowly dies out.
Ricky Cravate: This should be an interesting pairing Chris. Last week, Adam Stryker and Nightmare beat the hell out of each other!
["Killin In The Name of" by Rage Against the Machine blares and Noah makes his way to the ring to a mixed reaction. He might threaten to hit a fan or two as he makes his way to the ring. As he poses in the middle of the ring a gold and green pyro waterfall goes off behind him.]
Chris Caudill: Well where is his partner at?
[Noah points to the stage-as “Killin In The Name Of” reprises, and nobody comes out. Hanson slings both titles over his shoulder, and looks at Nightmare and Stryker. He looks back at the stage as the music reprises again, and still no entrant.]
Ricky Cravate: Not good…
NON TITLE MATCH:
PWX Tag Team Champion NOAH HANSON ©
Versus
ADAM STRYKER and NIGHTMARE
[Hanson shrugs and tosses the belts down, turning to his opponents and immediately going on the attack of Adam Stryker. The ref shrugs and rings the bell-as Nightmare steps to the apron.]
Ricky Cravate: Noah is going to go it alone?
Chris Caudill: Evidently!
[Hanson and Stryker exchange blows, and Hanson doubles him over with a knee-following it up with a hard uppercut, sending the Loose Cannon into the ropes. He shoots him into the far ropes after a hard chop to the chest, and drops him with a backdrop. He drops an elbow across Strykers chest-and goes for a cover:
ONE—KICKOUT!
Hanson picks him up-delivering a pair of forearms to the former Hybrid Champion, and shoots him into the corner, delivering a running lariat in the corner. He drags Stryker out and drops him with an STO, and rolls him into another cover:
ONE!!
TWO!!
T—KICKOUT!]
Ricky Cravate: Noah Hanson is keeping the offense on the Loose Cannon!
Chris Caudill: He’s in this 2 on 1 with two rabid wolverines….
Ricky Cravate: So do they plan on smothering him with pillows and hanging themselves in the gym?
Chris Caudill: That’s harsh.
[In the ring, Hanson picks him up and leans him into the corner-delivering some chops. Stryker blocks a shot from Noah, and follows up with a hard lariat out of the corner. Stryker yells to the crowd and lifts him up-shooting him into the ropes, where Nightmare kicks him in the spine. Stryker drops him with a spinebuster and goes for a cover:
ONE!!
TWO!!
TH---KICKOUT!!
Stryker tags in Nightmare, who smirks as he gets into the ring-and stalks Hanson, waiting for him to get vertical. He grabs him by the hair as Hanson tries to battle back-but Nightmare throws a knee to the face-dazing the Tag Team Champion. He shoots him into the corner and follows suit with a splash in the corner. He drags Noah out to the center of the ring-and drops him with Soul Shock as the crowd erupts. He rolls him into the cover:
ONE!
TWO!!
THR---KICKOUT!!]
Chris Caudill: No idea how he kicked out there Ricky!
[Nightmare smirks and lifts up Noah, and goes for a quick camel clutch type of submission-before throws Hanson back to the mat and tagging in Stryker to do some more damage.]
Ricky Cravate: These two working surprisingly well together.
[In the ring, Stryker stalks his prey while Nightmare grabs a chair and wedges it between the middle and top ropes. Hanson slowly gets up to his feet, and Stryker goes for the Stryke-but Hanson side steps it and Stryker crashes into the steel chair. Hanson delivers a big boot to the side of Nightmare’s head-knocking him to the floor. He turns to Stryker-who is stumbling out of the corner-and hits the Big Opening Weekend. He rolls him up for the cover:
ONE!!
TWO!!!
THREE!!!!!
The bell rings as Hanson rolls to the floor and grabs his belts, slinging them over his shoulder smirking as “Killing In The Name Of” reprises, and he heads up the ramp.]
WINNER: NOAH HANSON

SINGLES MATCH:
NIGHTHAWK vs JASON ARIES
Alexis Lace: “This next contest is scheduled for one fall with no time limit.”
(The lights in the arena goes down as the
lights turn blue smoke is beginning the rise in front of the entrance way as personal jesus begins to play over the sound system Jason appears in the smoke with his head down. Jason stands with his head
down for a few seconds before dumping a bottle of water over his head then some in his mouth. He throws the bottle to the side walking down the aisle with his hand out so the fans in the crowd can slap it. Jason jumps up on the apron stepping through the ropes he walks over to the corner stretching out waiting for his opponent.)
Chris Caudill: Aries is looking to knock off a huge opponent tonight Ricky!
(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 (Grand Sword 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 the barest hint of a 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 as the crowd chants "Best in the World.")
Alexis Lace: “Introducing first, in the corner to my left, he comes to us from Minneapolis, Minnesota and weighs in at 202 pounds. Wearing orange and black he is a former PWX Evolution Champion, and a former PWX Hybrid Champion. Ladies and gentlemen… please welcome ‘The Phenom’ Jason Aries.”
(As Jason Aries steps out of the corner, he both gets showered by black and orange streamers and serenaded with “Hail Minnesota!” which draws a smile from the Minneapolis native as he listens to the packed-to-the-rafters crowd pay tribute to him in the best way that they know how.)
Alexis Lace: “His opponent, in the corner to my right, comes to us from Chicago, Illinois and weighs in at 185 pounds. Wearing cobalt-blue with white, silver, and orange trim he is a former 2-time PWX World Heavyweight Champion. Ladies and gentlemen please welcome…. The ‘Man of 1000 Holds’…. ‘The Wrestling Machine’ Nighthawk!”
(As Nighthawk removes his ring robe with a flourish while raising his left arm above his head in anticipation of victory, the crowd bombs the ring with multi-colored streamers and chant “Let’s go Nighthawk” and “Best in the World” as the legendarily stoic “Man of 1000 Holds” simply stretches out in the corner, making no notice of the acclaim being thrown his way.)
Ricky Cravate: “This is not a match for a title, or even to determine a top contender for a title. This is, simply, a match between 1 wrestler trying to keep himself in the title picture and another who wants that spot for himself. Simply put, everything Jason Aries has wanted to do in PWX, Nighthawk already has. Tonight, Jason Aries wants to ascend to a top spot in PWX. The question is this: Will Nighthawk let him?”
Chris Caudill: “And that’s the other part of this story. Ever since Nighthawk arrived, he has been terribly impressive in a way that made all of the hype about what he had done before he got here seem, if this is possible, understated. And now tonight, the former 2-time World Champion is looking to defend what he has already built here against someone who wants more than anything to join him on the mountaintop, or even push him off. This should be a blast.”
(As Nighthawk and Jason Aries step in the center of the ring, the referee giving them their final instructions, the crowd slowly comes to life in anticipation of what is on the verge of happening. Ringing the bell to start the match the referee tries to break both men up as they continue to stare holes through each other with a look of uncommon intensity on their respective faces before finally shaking hands before backing up and heading to their respective corners to go over their final preparations. Finally stepping into the center of the ring both men lock up with each other with an intensity more befitting a championship match, as both men push against each other like two bulls before finding themselves locked up against the ropes. But as the referee moves to separate both men Jason Aries can’t help himself and slaps the Chicago native in the face on the break, which does not draw the angry reaction that most might have thought might happen but instead gets a nod of the head as if he expected that decision. Circling back into the center of the ring after a moment of leaning against the ropes, as if contemplating the somewhat new challenge in front of him, Nighthawk moves back into the center of the ring and goes for another lockup as both men quickly find themselves against the ropes for a 2nd time. But this time, as the referee moves in to break them up, the “Wrestling Machine” returns fire with a massive European uppercut as the referee barks at both men to cut down on the funny business. Nodding as if they understand his instructions and will abide by them from this point on both men step into the center of the ring and lock up, again pushing each other to the ropes but this time rolling to the floor as they continue to jockey for position against each other. Finally breaking the lockup the “Man of 1000 Holds” and “The Phenom” realize where they are and slide back into the ring.)
Ricky Cravate: “What I noticed in that early portion of the match is just how intense everything was. These are two men who want nothing more than to finally end this dispute between the two of them, but they’re not letting themselves surrender to brawling or anything like this. A large part of this for both men is that they want to find out which one of them is superior. This can’t be done by taking shortcuts, or letting their emotions get the best of them.”
Chris Caudill: “The other thing that you have to remember, Ricky, is that this match’s contract was specifically constructed with a no-time limit stipulation. This is going to go as long as it needs to until both men can settle this. And they will want to do that as cleanly as possible.”
(Sliding back underneath the bottom rope both men stand in the center of the ring before locking up again, both men breaking the lockup almost as quickly as they started it in the first place. Finally locking up, both men taking a moment to wipe excess sweat off of their hands and onto the ring ropes or their tights, they again lock up and this time Jason Aries is able to come out of the lockup with the first advantage of the match in the form of a standing can opener. Twisting tightly on the neck rank as the referee comes over both to ensure that the hold isn’t a choke in disguise as well as to see if Nighthawk is going to give up the Minneapolis native takes advantage of the situation and quickly grinds the bone of his forearm across the jaw of the Chicago native while still holding on to the standing can opener, drawing a wince from the referee as he again checks on the “Wrestling Machine” only to get a muted no as he grunts in pain over the situation he finds himself in. But as “The Phenom” takes advantage of the situation and looks to transfer it into a sleeper hold, Nighthawk slowly bridges down until the backs of his palms are on the mat and uses the change in leverage as an opening to slip out of the can opener before going for a judo-style lifting shoulder throw. But as he goes for it Jason sees it coming and grabs the nearest set of ropes, forcing the “Man of 1000 Holds” to stop that plan of attack.)
Ricky Cravate: “And right there is what Jason Aries feels like he has to do. When I talked to him earlier, he was very insistent that he wanted to try and keep this match off of the mat as much as he possibly can. Not because he doesn’t think he can do excellent work on the mat, but because he doesn’t want to give Nighthawk any chance to take this to a place where he has an advantage. The best way for Jason Aries to win this is to try and limit Nighthawk’s technical advantages wherever he can.”
Chris Caudill: “But here’s the rub. By doing that, by deliberately trying to slow things down, he plays into another one of Nighthawk’s advantages: namely his near-limitless stamina. This is a guy who goes an hour with no problem. Jason has to figure out a way to both get this over with quickly, and do so without giving Nighthawk any chance to take things to the mat. It’s a bear of a puzzle to solve, but if anyone can do it, Jason Aries can.”
(As Nighthawk walks back into the center of the ring, a Kawada-esque blank stare on his face as he looks at his opponent and the challenge that is in front of him while slowly stretching out his neck, he again locks up with his opponent and this time is able to come out of it with a standing back-to-back double armbar which he supplements by placing the back of his knee directly into the middle of the spine of the Chicago native. Nodding his head no when the referee comes over to see if he wants to submit to this hold Jason Aries now begins to try and see if he can’t counter his way out of it, the Minneapolis native looking desperately to escape this in any way that he can before finally going for a reversal. Spinning out as he looks to apply a reversal of the hold Jason lets out a string of expletives when the “Wrestling Machine” spins back through into a standing double chickenwing before finally placing his foot through the bottom rope to force a break of the hold. Kicking the ropes in frustration over being unable to find an escape of this hold “The Phenom” steps into the middle of the ring and continues to bark expletives towards Nighthawk as he shakes out his left arm. Finally stepping back into the center of the ring Jason Aries again locks up and this time comes out of it with a side headlock, quickly grinding the bony part of his forearm across the jawbone of the “Man of 1000 Holds” who almost immediately looks to pry the headlock apart and does by slowly bending the left wrist of Jason Aries backwards until he releases the hold.)
Ricky Cravate: “Small joint manipulation, as we all know, is illegal in most of the grappling arts. And considering that Nighthawk has spent a lot of time training with shoot-style wrestlers, and even a few Sambo players, along with what we know of his desire for fair play I don’t imagine we will see anything more vicious than a simple wristlock which is what we saw there. Nighthawk told us last night that his goal was to stretch Jason Aries as many ways as he could, and to particularly focus on the left arm.”
Chris Caudill: “Your other concern, Ricky, is this. The longer he goes after the left arm, the more offense he takes away from Jason Aries. That might be his plan, now that I think of it. He might honestly believe that his best way to win is to eliminate options for Jason Aries to attack.”
(Stepping back in the center of the ring, both men now sweating openly as they are clearly coming to realize just how skilled the man across the ring from them is, both men step back into the center of the ring and stare at each other for several long tension-filled moments before locking up with each other again as they continue to feel each other out. Deciding he needs to get things to a place where he wants them to be Nighthawk goes for a shoulder throw only for Jason Aries to block it and grab a waistlock, locking his arms together not just above the waistband but also around the taped up and seemingly still-injured ribs of the Chicago native which draws a noticeable, albeit silent, wince as he now quickly scrambles to sit out of the hold before the pain becomes too much to bear. Placing the flats of his palms on the mat the “Wrestling Machine” quickly works on bellying out of the hold but finds that every attempt to do so is met with a response of a tighter squeeze on the waistlock, as the Minneapolis native now feels as though he has things more or less in hand. Finally eschewing bellying out of the waistlock as a strategy Nighthawk slowly slips his right hand inside the waistlock before shimmying out of it with the practiced control of a belly dancer, holding on to the left hand of “The Phenom” for a fulcrum as he spins through into a Fujiwara armbar. Bridging back on his heels to get more out of the hold Nighthawk gets frustrated when Jason is able to reach out and grab the bottom rope with his right hand, forcing the “Man of 1000 Holds” to release the armbar at the count of 4.)
Ricky Cravate: “Nighthawk has struggled more in this feeling-out process than I imagined he would have, to be quite honest. This is a thing that usually Nighthawk masters. Maybe it’s that he’s not as fluid as he usually is because of those injured ribs, but for a man who is as technically exceptional as he is, Nighthawk has had to work quite a bit more than he would have expected.”
Chris Caudill: “About those injured ribs, Ricky, you and I both mentioned them when we talked to him last night. He was very insistent in telling us that there isn’t anything he has to worry about with them, but look at how he’s moving. He’s nowhere near the same force of nature that he was in their first match. And remember, a lot of people believe it was Jason Aries going after his ribs that injured them in the 1st place.”
(As Nighthawk slowly stands up to his feet, refusing to let a wince cross his face as he does so, he stares a cold hole through Jason Aries who again is shaking out his left arm, but with a more desperate tone to it. Finally circling back in the center of the ring both men again lock up but this time Jason shoves Nighthawk away before landing a forearm with his right hand which sends the Chicago native weaving towards the ropes more out of shock than the actual blow. Nodding his head as he runs his tongue across his teeth, again more out of surprise than anything else, the “Wrestling Machine” takes one long slow look at his opponent before mouthing the words “So you don’t want to wrestle anymore?” Getting the nod of the head that he was expecting to come Nighthawk slowly laces up the gloves that cover his hands and quickly returns fire with a massive European uppercut that sends the Minneapolis native wobbling towards a neutral corner, seemingly stunned with just how much oomph is behind that blow. But as “The Phenom” heads back into the center of the ring Nighthawk is right there with a wraparound armdrag that sends Jason to the floor, where he gets followed off with a beautiful moonsault press to the floor. Deciding to press this advantage Nighthawk slides back in the ring and goes for a tope con hilo, splattering Jason against the ringside barrier. Rolling him back in the ring the “Man of 1000 Holds” covers and gets a 2-count, before locking him back up in a short-arm scissors.)
Ricky Cravate: “Interesting. Nighthawk wants to keep this match on the mat as much as he possibly can, but he also wanted to set a trap for Jason Aries. So he did both. It’s a brilliant strategy. The question is this: What does Nighthawk do when that strategy stops working? Because Jason Aries is entirely too good of a competitor for that to be all you have to do to beat him.”
Chris Caudill: “I think we saw hints of it before Nighthawk re-applied that short-arm scissors. He has a vast array of offense, things we haven’t seen from him before. I think that’s where he’ll go if he has to.”
(Locking his ankles together to get the most out of the hold Nighthawk leans back on his elbows and tries to bridge up but can’t do it, immediately wincing despite himself. Grabbing the bottom rope with his free hand Jason Aries forces a break of the hold at the count of 4 and quickly gets to his knees. Rushing him Nighthawk gets alley-ooped over the top rope but somehow manages to land on his feet on the ring apron. Waiting patiently until the Minneapolis native turns around the Chicago native cues up a springboard hurricanrana, only to get caught with a running leaping Yakuza kick right underneath the chin that sends him careening to the floor where he smashes against the guardrail where Jason follows him out with a spaceman asai moonsault. Shaking out his left arm “The Phenom” throws a woozy Nighthawk in the ring before hitting a springboard corkscrew moonsault, following that up with a flash quebrada moonsault. Covering intensely, hooking the near leg as tightly as he can, Jason Aries glares at the referee when he informs him that the “Wrestling Machine” kicked out at the count of 2. Glaring angrily at Nighthawk, who is just now beginning to stir to his feet, Jason hits a beautiful hooking open-hand forearm lariat right on the jawbone before hitting a standing double stomp to the abdomen and then a pendulum elbowdrop to the throat of the “Man of 1000 Holds” before covering and getting another long 2-count.)
Ricky Cravate: “And we see what has made many people so convinced that Jason Aries has what it takes to beat Nighthawk. He is just so aggressive when he has you hurt, as he clearly has Nighthawk hurt here. Can he close the show?”
Chris Caudill: “But look what he’s doing, Jason. It’s not just the aggression. It’s the smarts. He’s keeping the pressure on, refusing to let Nighthawk breathe and, just as importantly, think. If he can think, if he can come up with a strategy, he can get back in this match. Jason Aries has to keep the pressure on.”
(Pulling Nighthawk up to a seated position Jason lands a step-up roundhouse kick to the back of the head, before landing a jumping kneedrop to the jaw. Covering again the Minneapolis native again shoots an almost disdainful glare to the referee at his 2-count before picking Nighthawk up and landing a trio of blistering knife-edge chops to the chest followed by another hard forearm to the face and then a shotgun lariat to the chest. Moving to the outside of the ring Jason Aries smirks as if he has things completely under control before coming in with a beautiful springboard dropkick to the back of the head, sending the Chicago native running sternum-first into the top turnbuckle leaving him perfectly open for a tornado forearm to the back of the head followed by a straightjacket lungblower. Pulling him up to his feet “The Phenom” hits the “Wrestling Machine” with a folding powerbomb that gets another long 2-count. Kicking the bottom rope in frustration Jason Aries glares at the referee before grabbing Nighthawk by the hair and slapping him a few times in the face, yelling at him to stay down. Dragging Nighthawk over to the corner Jason lands a series of bootscrapes to the face before hitting a running yakuza kick, following that up with a 2nd running yakuza kick and then a running baseball slide dropkick. Covering again and again getting a 2-count Jason Aries fumes in the center of the ring as the crowd begins to chant “Let’s go Nighthawk!” in an attempt to encourage the “Man of 1000 Holds”.)
Ricky Cravate: “Right now, Nighthawk is taking a frightful beating. The only thing keeping him upright, and somewhat alive in this match, is his tremendous heart. But if Jason Aries continues to keep the pressure on, and dropping as many bombs as he has, I don’t know how much longer he’s going to have to show off that heart. The referee is looking very carefully at stopping this right now, you can tell.”
Chris Caudill: “But look at Jason Aries. He is losing his composure right now. You have to wonder how much longer he can keep himself under control and keep this game plan going.”
(Dragging an almost-limp Nighthawk into the center of the ring Jason Aries locks on the Aries Rage II, sighing in relief as he now thinks he has things well in hand. Shaking his fingers no as he desperately tries to keep himself alive through strangled screams of pain Nighthawk scoots forward on his back towards the ropes before the wellspring of energy that he was drawing on appears to run dry. Quickly moving to check on the Chicago native’s ability to continue, the referee raises Nighthawk’s arm two times and finds it limp and unresponsive. Raising it for the 3rd time the referee again finds it limp and unresponsive, leaving him no choice but to head towards the ring announcer to signal the end of the contest. But as he does so, he looks down and notices that the left hand of the “Wrestling Machine” has grabbed onto the shoelaces of the referee. signaling the match to continue Nighthawk somehow finds enough energy to reach out with his left hand and grab the bottom rope, forcing “The Phenom” to let go of the hold. Gritting his teeth Jason drags Nighthawk back into the center of the ring before again heading to the ring apron, this time cueing up a springboard clothesline. But as he takes to the air the “Man of 1000 Holds” is there to greet him with a perfectly timed counter in the form of a palm strike to the face before he collapses, having apparently wasted the last bit of his energy as the referee begins the 10-count on both men.)
Ricky Cravate: “I don’t know how he did it. I don’t know where it came from. But somehow, someway, Nighthawk found it within himself to pull together enough strength to counter a Jason Aries dive and take things right back under control.”
Chris Caudill: “And Nighthawk, in our meeting, mentioned that as a young wrestler he idolized Brian Pillman. So, perhaps more so than any other wrestler on the roster, he knows the timing of the springboard clothesline. He knows the best time to throw it, and the best way to counter.”
(gasping for breath Nighthawk finally pulls himself up to his feet, the ropes holding him up as his legs are still rubbery from the beating he’s taken. Seeing that Jason Aries is still down in the center of the ring Nighthawk sighs and goes to pick him up, only to be caught with a textbook small package that gets a long 2-count. Exhaling Nighthawk quickly gets back to his feet and lands a discus european uppercut, following that up with a fireman’s carry right into a soccer kick to the left arm before landing a beautiful bridging German suplex that gets a long 2-count as the “Wrestling Machine” slowly starts to get his feet back underneath him. shaking his head and letting out a war cry, almost as if he needs an extra shot of adrenaline, Nighthawk ascends to the top rope and gazes out at the sold-out crowd before coming off with a gorgeous swandive headbutt right into the left shoulder of Jason Aries. Covering quickly Nighthawk again gets a long 2-count and picks Jason Aries again only to be caught with a boot to the stomach and a textbook backdrop driver, covering only for Nighthawk to grab the middle rope and break the pin. Looking up at the referee with a combination of shock and disappointment in his eyes Jason Aries pulls Nighthawk up to his feet and goes for the Aries Judgment only for Nighthawk to turn it into a concussive crucifix bomb, rolling right through into the Hangman’s Clutch. Pulling back on the hold the “Man of 1000 Holds” finally lets go when Jason Aries verbally submits.) \
Alexis Lace: “Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner…. ‘The Wrestling Machine’ Nighthawk!”
WINNER: NIGHTHAWK

[The scene fades in backstage, where Preston Parker is getting ready for his match, as Darin Zion walks up.]
Darin Zion: Hey Preston…any reason you still haven't signed that contract?
Preston: What? Yeah…I'm still going over it.
Darin Zion: But..you have a title match tonight.
Preston: And? Ryan Kidd issued the challenge, and you said it was best for business. So what's the deal…can I go win that Evolution Title now?
[He turns to go-but Zion grabs his arm.]
Darin Zion: See Preston, whats best for business is all my champions being apart of my company….and if you're not part of my company…than I'm afraid its not whats best for business….
Preston: What the hell are you saying?
[Out of nowhere, Schmied attacks Preston from behind-throwing him into the wall. Preston runs at him-but the monster lifts him up and drops him on his back on the concrete. He lifts him back up-and throws him into some railing pieces. Preston tries to fight back, but Schmied grabs him by the throat and throws him through a glass window into an office. Security comes to break it up.]
Darin Zion: Get out there Schmied….
[He smirks, as he crouches over Preston, ripping up a contract.]
Darin Zion: Thats whats best for business….

PWX EVOLUTION CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:
Evolution Champion RYAN KIDD ©
versus
SCHMIED
The lights in the arena dies down as the crowd in the arena screams in anticipation. “Dark Horse“ by The Ghost Inside suddenly explodes through the PA system in sync to the pulsation of red lights. We then suddenly see the entrance way being engulf with smoke. Amidst the smoke, we see a figure as the song blasts throughout the airwaves. After several seconds while the smoke starts to clear, the figure materializes and is revealed to be Ryan Kidd. He began hardcore dancing on the floor spinning around like there's no tomorrow before raising his arms up in the air to the delight of the fans.
Ring Announcer: Making his way to the ring… Weighing in at TWO HUNDRED and FIFTEEN POUNDS… From Long Beach, California… Pro Wrestling’s Evil Knievel… RYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN… KIDD!!
As the red lights pulsation continues, he then strolls down to the ramp and slaps some hands of the fans ringside. He stops at the bottom of the ramp and looks around the whole arena and raises his arm. He then continues walking making his way around the ring slapping some hands of the fans. He then stops in front of a steel steps and runs up to it stopping on the ring apron. He then climbs the nearest turnbuckle and raises his arms and roars to pump up the crowd. He somersaults down from the turnbuckle and runs to the opposite corner corner and climbs the turnbuckle. He roars and raises his arms in the air to the delight of the fans. He then somersaults down from the turnbuckle and walks to the opposite side of the ring. He then leans on the ropes puts his foot on the bottom rope as he raises his arm ala Edge as the fans cheers him on. He then walks into his corner and does some warm up as he awaits his opponent.
[The crowd roars as Ryan Kidd poses in the ring. "Rise" by Skillett plays and Schmied walks down to the ring.]
Chris Caudill: This isn't going to go well.
[Schmied slides into the ring-and Ryan immediately goes on the attack, delivering boots to the big man while he's on the mat. He lifts him to a knee and delivers a pair of kicks to the head-before bouncing off the ropes and hitting a shining wizard to the face of the monster. He goes for a quick cover, but Schmied powers out before one.]
Chris Caudill: Ryan Kidd fighting with everything!
[Kidd goes to the apron, and waits for Schmied to get up.]
Ricky Cravate: Not smart…
[He springboards off the ropes and goes for a crossbody-but Schmied catches him and throws him backwards with a fallaway slam. He grabs the Evolution Champion by the hair-and throws him into the corner, before crushing him with a splash. He pulls him out and scoop slams him into the center of the ring-before dropping an elbow across his chest. He goes for the pin:
ONE!

TH--KICKOUT!
Schmied lifts him up-his eyes cold and destructive-before he shoots Kidd into the corner. He charges the Evo Champion-and Ryan Kidd gets his boot up and kicks him in the face. Schmied stumbles back and Kidd catches him with Sudden Impact as the crowd explodes.]

[Kidd gets to his feet-and sits up Schmied, delivering a kick to the spine-and than a dropkick to the back of the head. He no sells it and rolls to a knee-taking a shining wizard to the face from the Evolution Champion. The crowd roars as he goes for a side kick-but Schmied grabs his foot and lifts him up-hitting a capture suplex and throwing him all the way into the ropes and onto the apron.]
Chris Caudill: Oh no…
[Kidd gets to his feet-but Schmied kicks him in the face and he flies into the railing. The Crowd boos as he climbs to the floor-and picks the champion up. He lifts him up and drops him ribs first on the ring steps, before Kidd rolls off of them and stumbles around the ring. Schmied goes on the chase-but Kidd hits a drop toe hold-forcing Schmied to the floor. He quickly locks in a leg submission, but the ref orders him back in the ring. Kidd refuses to, and the ref starts the count out process.

The crowd erupts with cheers as Ryan Kidd is handed his belt, and holds it high above his head.]

PWX HYBRID CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:
Hybrid Champion DAVID WILSON ©
versus
ANTON CHASE
As Faint By Linkin Park blasts over the pa system, white smoke fills the entrance way as a person is seen behind the white smoke, as the person steps forward in front of the white smoke Anton Chase makes his way down the ramp way, with a cocky smile on his face and his arms out at the side, he climbs in the ring and climbs the second ropes and puts one hand up in the air.
Chris Caudill: It’s Hybrid Championship time!
Ricky Cravate: These two have been engaged in a wonderful rivalry for the last month and change!
Chris Caudill: It all started a few months ago, at the time, Jessica Harmony was Hybrid Champion-and she suffered losses to both these men. Lillith Morgan made a Three Way Dance last month at Do Or Die, and Anton Chase had the title won!
Ricky Cravate: Than David Wilson came in, with the ring bell, and won the title.
Chris Caudill: You say won, I say stole.
Ricky Cravate: Tomato Tomahto.
The lights quickly start to dim as "Fuckin in the Bushes" hits the PA system.
We put this festival on you bastards
With a lotta love
We worked for one year for you pigs
And you wanna break our walls down
And you wanna destroy us
Well you go to hell!
Suddenly, a colorful light-up jacket is seen at the top of the ramp way. The crowd ohs for a slight moment, but then boos a the lights reveal it's David Wilson. With a scowl on his face, Wilson points towards the camera before mouthing off to some of the fans. David's black jacket is still lit up as it matches his all black trunks, knee pads and boots with his PWX Hybrid Champion around his waist. David stands in place before he motions for the lights to go off again, to which they do, with his lit up jacket still being lite. David watches down to the ring in the darkness.
Ring Announcer: From Los Angeles, California by the way of Liverpool, England, weighing in at two hundred pounds, he is the PWX Hybrid Champion, "The Dead Eye" David Wilson!
David slowly walks down to the ring with the lights dim low. His foul language becomes audible as he walks closer and closer to the camera. David later rolls into the ring and walks to the middle of the ring, so he can further showcase his light up jacket.
Kids running around naked, fucking in the bushes
David then extends his arms while looking up at the ceiling. From there he turns around and faces the other side of the audience and stares at them in the darkness as his jacket continues to illuminate. The lights finally come on and David then points to his Hybrid Championship and the crowd grasps. As they quickly see, the Hybrid Championship and it's plates have been replaced with a golden Union Jack on all of them. David smirks and then further bad mouths the crowd. They boo him before David tosses his jacket at the referee. Once that's done, he then gives his championship to the ring announcer he gets ready for his match.
Alexis Lace: The following is scheduled for one fall, and is for the PWX Hybrid Championship! Introducing first, the challenger….ANTON…CHASE!!!
[The crowd roars as Chase poses on the ropes.]
Alexis Lace: His opponent, representing the House of Stone. He is the reigning PWX Hybrid Champion…..DAVID…WILSON!!
[The crowd boos loudly as he holds the belt up and smirks.]
Chris Caudill: It’s go time!
[The referee signals for the bell, and both competitors glare at each other as the bell rings. Suddenly, Chase belts out and runs towards Wilson, delivering him quite the clothesline.]
Ricky Cravate: Shit, he just floored Wilson faster than Miley Cyrus on a coke binge!
Chris Caudill: That made no sense!
Ricky Cravate: Who cares! The point was to convey that Chase just knocked Wilson’s brains out!
[Wilson tries to get to his feet, but Chase locks in an armbar on Wilson. Wilsons screams out in pain as Chase continues to twist the arm back further and further with each passing second.]
Chris Caudill: Apparently, he wants to be noticed!
Ricky Cravate: This “Indy Darling” is trying to make waves here in PWX.
Chris Caudill: That “Indy Darling” has a win over John Pariah!
Ricky Cravate: Given Pariah’s recent run here in PWX..who the hell doesn’t?
[After about a minute locked into the hold, the referee falls down and tells Chase to release the hold, as he’s being too aggressive. He starts the 5 count…
1…
2…
3…
[Chase shoots his hands into the air and smiles innocently as the referee glares at him; shaking his finger.]
Ricky Cravate: Apparently, that has to be Chase’s father!
Chris Caudill: Why? Because he’s correcting him for almost ripping Wilson’s arm straight off the socket?
[The crowd pops suddenly as Chase delivers a boot to the face of the Hybrid Champion, and immediately hits a standing moonsault on David Wilson. He hooks the leg for a cover:
ONE!
TWO—KICKOUT!]
[Chase gets to his feet, and lifts up the Hybrid Champion-who delivers a low blow, doubling the challenger over. The crowd boos as he lifts up the challenger and delivers a pair of chops to the chest-before dropping him with a swinging neckbreaker. He lifts him up and shoves him into the ropes-before hitting a massive corner lariat on him. The crowd boos as he steps back and charges Chase, but as soon as he does that, Chase, almost miraculously ducks down and monkey flips Wilson over the top rope. He quickly follows it up with a moonflip kick to the head-knocking the Hybrid Champion to the floor.]
Chris Caudill: David Wilson’s momentum stopped dead by the challenger!
Ricky Cravate: Anton Chase is on fire tonight. I’ll give him that!
[Chase goes to the floor as Wilson catches him with some shots to the ribs. He delivers a hard uppercut-and throws the challenger into the railing. He clotheslines him over the railing-and into the first row as the crowd begins to roar loudly. The ref orders him to get it back in the ring, and Wilson shrugs it off, grabs Chase by the hair and draping him over the railing. He follows it up with a hard knee to the side of the head. The crowd boos as Wilson grabs Chase and drags him back into the ringside area with a lifting snapmare. The crowd continues to boo as he kicks Chase in the spine not once, but twice as the crowd begins to boo louder with each strike.]
Chris Caudill: Think these fans are fading the Hybrid Champion?
Ricky Cravate: I doubt it!
[Wilson smiles as he stands up, playing to the crowd. He sits and waits to pounce his prey as Chase sluggishly stands up. After Chase regroups, Wilson charges him with a huge lariat. The crowd roars as Wilson lifts him up and slams him head first into the steel steps-before sliding him back into the ring. He waits for Chase to get to his feet-and he springboards into the ring-taking him down with a diving lariat. He rolls him up for the cover:
ONE!
TWO!!
THR—KICKOUT!!
The crowd roars as Chase gets his shoulder up before three. Wilson sighs and lifts him up-delivering a chop to the chest. He lifts him up onto his shoulders-spinning him around, accidently cracking the ref in the back of the head.]
Chris Caudill: OH NO! REF BUMP!
[The crowd cheers as Chase slides down behind Wilson-and drops him with a reverse implant DDT. He hooks the leg, but no ref as Bruce hits the ring-and breaks up the count. The crowd boos as Bruce throws him into the turnbuckle, and squashes him with a running splash. He pulls him out-and drops him with a fallaway slam, as the crowd continues to boo.]
Chris Caudill: David Wilson is going to steal another win here.
[Bruce picks him up-and shoots him into the corner. Chase springboard off the middle rope-and connects with a huge kick to the head of Bruce, before throwing him through the ropes to the floor. Megan Pierce slides the ring bell into David Wilson-who gets to his feet and cracks Chase in the head with it.]
DING!
Ricky Cravate: Teamwork Chris! That’s what the house of Stone is about!
[The crowd roars with boos as Wilson slides the bell back to Megan, and she puts it back at the time keepers table. Wilson slowly crawls to Chase, and hooks the leg. The ref slowly comes to:
ONE!!!
TWO!!!!!
THREE-----Anton Chase gets his foot on the bottom rope, as the crowd pops loudly. Wilson gets frustrated and lifts him up dropping him with Head on a Pike-before pointing to the top rope. Megan throws him a chair, and he places the chair on Anton Chase, as the crowd boos loudly.]
Ricky Cravate: What does he have planned here?
[He climbs up top, and goes for the Big Show Ending-but Chase throws the chair at him and rolls out of the way. The crowd pops as Megan gets on the apron-and argues with the ref, as Bruce gets into the ring. Chase sees him and ducks the lariat attempt-hitting a backflip kick to the back of Bruce’s head. He grabs him, and drops him with Chaos Theory as the crowd roars with excitement. He rolls Bruce to the floor-as Wilson attacks him from behind. The crowd boos as he sets him up for Wilson’s End, but Chase lands on his feet, and throws a wild knee-doubling the champion over. The crowd roars with excitement as Chase drops Wilson with the Chaos Theory, planting him face first on the mat. The crowd roars as he rolls Wilson up-as the ref ejects Megan from ringside.]
ONE!
TWO!!!!
THREE!!!!!!
Chris Caudill: NEW CHAMPION!
[The crowd roars as Anton Chase rolls away, and holds up the Hybrid Championship]
Alexis Lace: Here is your winner…and the NEW PWX HYBRID CHAMPION……ANTON….CHASE!!!!!!
[The bell rings again as Chase celebrates in the ring-holding the title up as the House of Stone regroups on the stage. We fade to black.]
