OAKLAND ARENA

OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA

 

SEGMENT 1:  INTRODUCTION:

A video package airs, highlighting the match last week between Anthony Failla and GI Jew which saw Failla qualify for the Seven Deadly Sins match at Forsaken.  The opening credits roll immediately as Linkin Park's "By_Myslf" hits and we are sent inside the Oakland Arena in Oakland, California, where an amazing fireworks display ensues and we are sent to our commentators, Victor Troy and Paul Ferrara.

Troy:  Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to PWA Frequency!  I’m Victor Troy, along here with Paul Ferrara, and we’ve got a huge show tonight!

Ferrara:  Well Troy, I don’t know about the whole show, but we definitely have a huge main event! 

Troy:  It’s a ten-man tag team match, folks!  On one side, we have the PWA Champion Jaguar, Romeo, Jason Calysto, Scythe, and Greg Tantalus!  On the other, Hollywood Mike Griffin, Jonathan Brett, Bishop Cross, Anthony Failla, and the Alaskan Monster Solomon!  Anything can happen!

Ferrara:  It absolutely can!  And anything can happen right now, as we are ready to go!

Troy:  Let’s head down to the ring!

SEGMENT 2:  MATCH 1:  DAMIEN FIELDS VS. REAPER VS. GREG PRICE:
Referee:  Billy Vargas

Damien Fields greets the crowd as Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" plays, and they respond with cheers for the former Tag Champion. He heads into the ring and plays it up for the crowd, when "Control" by Earshot suddenly hits, and the audience takes the chance to flood the arena with jeers as Justin Schenck leads Greg Price down to the ring. Price openly taunts the crowd, which draws their ire, causing them to respond heavily with obscenities. Price climbs into the ring and stares across it at Fields, who is hunched over and poised to strike. The referee stands in between them, allowing time for "Alone" by Buckcherry to fall on everyone's ears. As if it were a reflex, the crowd boos loudly for Reaper, as he arrives on his own and heads to the ring. He pays no mind to the audience as he walks down the ramp with the Tag Team belt wrapped around his waist. He steps into the ring and removes the belt, briefly holding it high to the dismay of the crowd before handing it to the referee. The three wrestlers all look at each other, each hesitant to make the first move as the bell sounds.

Troy: This match is to determine which team will sit out the first part of the Gates of Hell match for the Tag Titles at Forsaken.

Ferrara: Whoever makes the first pinfall here will not have to start that match, and will be at a serious advantage.

Reaper moves about the ring until Fields is trapped between the two men. He backs up, but only to find himself in a corner as both Reaper and Price form a temporary alliance and close in on Fields. He blasts out of the corner, but walks right into a double clothesline that sends him down hard. The crowd cringes and Price looks to further the damage, but Reaper turns around and slugs Price in the back with a double axe handle, causing one half of The Naturals to stagger forward. Reaper reaches low and compresses Price with a sideslam that actually makes the crowd cheer!

Troy: There are no friends in this kind of match, and Price is finding that out right now!

Reaper gets back to his feet, but Fields is already standing back up. Reaper turns around, but gets himself decapitated by a charging clothesline, courtesy of Fields! He lifts Reaper back up and sends him hurling into the mat with a suplex. Reaper writhes on the mat, but isn't given the chance to stay down for long when Fields yanks him back up. Reaper will have none of it however, and slips out of Fields grip. He wraps both arms around Fields and launches him into the canvas with a back body drop. Reaper is slow to his feet, but he does make it back up first. On the other side of the ring, Price has rolled over to the edge of the apron where Schenck comes over and slips and object into his hands.

Ferrara: Reaper just got the advantage and-

Troy: What was that?!

Ferrara: What was what?

Troy: Schenck just gave Price something!

Ferrara: Some advice, maybe? And you interrupted me for that?!

Reaper continues to pour on the damage with stomps to Fields' back. He wrenches Fields off the mat and shreds up his torso with several punches. Fields tries to battle back, but to no avail. Reaper grabs Fields and flips him upside down before digging him into the mat with the Passed Judgment Piledriver.

Ferrara: That's gonna do it for Fields!

Reaper makes the cover and the ref goes to count. One. Two. Thr- Schenck races around and yanks Reaper out of the ring! Reaper, enraged, begins to give chase to the Legacy manager on the outside as Price springs to life. He peels what's left of Fields off the mat while the referee has his attention diverted to the outside. Price slips an object onto his hand and strikes Fields hard across the face, busting him wide open! Price hides the object and nudges the referee before going for the cover. One. Two. Three.

Troy: Brass Knuckles!

Ferrara: What are you talking about?

Troy: That's what Schenck gave to Price! Damn them, they just stole this match!

Ferrara: You just don't give credit where it's due, Troy! The point now is that The Naturals will get to sit back while The Lost Souls and Fields and Nash fight it out in the Gates of Hell match!

Troy: Oh no, that's right! They've got the advantage going into Forsaken!

Reaper looks on in horror on the outside as Price is announced the winner. Schenck flees into the ring and raises Price's arm, as the crowd boos loudly. Fields, with blood trickling down the side of his mouth, does not even move an inch.
WINNER VIA PINFALL AT 6:22:  GREG PRICE

SEGMENT 3:  BACKSTAGE:

The camera goes backstage and follows Anthony Failla, who is bearing a smirk. The crowd isn't the least bit pleased to see him, and they make it vocally apparent. Failla turns the corner until he finds GI Jew, who is noticeably looking perturbed. Jew catches wind of Failla and becomes even more enraged.

Failla: (Mockingly) Well, if it isn't my good friend-

Jew: Shut the hell up, you useless sack of sh*t!

Failla: Whoa, whoa, why the hostility?

Jew: You have the damned nerve to show your face around me and ask me that question?! I have a lot of anger that I need to work off, and tonight's 10-man tag would've been the perfect place to blow off some steam, but I'm not even in the f*cking match!

Failla: You should really learn to stay calm, man.

Jew: Stay calm? STAY CALM?! How can I stay calm when I'm standing in front of the person that screwed me out of the Seven Deadly Sins match?!

Failla: (Starts laughing) Yeah, I guess I would be pretty mad too. But look at it this way, at least now your spot is going to a man that deserves the shot.

Failla pats Jew on the shoulder, but Jew shoves him back and unleashes a vicious Gore that sends Failla pierces Failla against the wall! Jew has completely lost his temper and begins pounding on him, but referees flood the area and tear the two apart. Commissioner Cox comes over shortly after.

Jew: Let me go! I'm gonna take his f*cking head off!

Cox: Keep them apart, guys! Josh, I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave you in the building like this. I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Jew: WHAT?!

Cox: Get him out of here. C'mon, let's go.

Cox herds the officials as they drag Jew off. He is reluctant to go, but he isn't given a choice. The camera looks back at Failla, who slowly gets back to his feet using the help of the wall. A line of blood falls from his lip, but he cracks a grin.

Failla: That was easy enough...

SEGMENT 4:  RINGSIDE:
A loud blast of pyro precedes "Footprints" by Young Buck and 50 Cent hitting the speakers for the entrance of Showtime Damon Savage. The International Champion makes his way to the ring to a loud set of cheers from the crowd and as usual, he soaks up their reaction before climbing into the ring to grab a microphone.

 

Savage: Ever since Showtime won the International Title at Revival, nobody has gotten a chance to hear the champ speak. But Oaktown, you're in luck because the champ is here! (Crowd cheers) Now, to all those wondering where Rodney King is, Showtime has no idea. And to be honest, I could care less. For the first time since I came on the scene, it’s all about Showtime right now!

 

Before he can speak another word, "Not Falling" by Mudvayne plays and the crowd boos as Jon Dulberg walks out with a microphone.

 

Dulberg: Maybe these Oakland idiots find you entertaining Savage, but you were doing nothing but putting me to sleep back there. If you were wondering where Rodney was, he flew out to Moscow to do some promotional work with Vladimir Vydrina, also known as a real champion. He'll be back in time for Forsaken, but for some reason, he refuses to talk about our upcoming match.

 

Savage: And?

 

Dulberg: Just figured I would let you know Showtime. But while you're out here trumping yourself up, I hope you enjoy your little title reign. You know it was me that won the first PWA International Championship, and my second title run is long overdue. That ends this Saturday Showtime.

 

Savage: Man, if you don't shut your punk ass up! Listen Dulberg, this is Showtime's show, in Showtime's house right now. It doesn't matter to me which side Rodney is on at Forsaken. I'm worried about one thing, keeping this title and kicking your ass all over Vancouver in the process! I'll see you at Forsaken!

 

"Footprints" replays as the champion and his challenger exchange angry stares that will surely be brought back this Saturday night.

 SEGMENT 5:  MATCH 2:  JADE VS. CAMIEKO:
Referee:  Dan Martin

Back from commercial, “Zerospace” by Kidneythieves hits and the fans begin booing as Jade makes her way down to the ring, flanked by her agent Walter Gindin.  Jade looks in an especially bad mood as she enters the ring, ready for action.

Troy:  Paul, would you say Jade is obsessed with getting a shot at the women’s championship?

Ferrara:  You know Troy, I don’t think there’s any other way TO say it.

As Jade waits in the ring, “Hot Like Fire” by Aaliyah hits the speakers and Camieko makes her way to the ring to a strong reaction.  Camieko wastes little time getting into the ring, immediately getting things started with Jade as the bell sounds.  Camieko pounds on Jade with a flurry of lefts and rights in the early going, backing Jade into the ropes.  Camieko then whips her off and nails her with a back body drop as she returns.  Jade climbs to her feet, and Camieko downs her with a big dropkick.  Camieko looks for another clothesline, but before she can get it off, Jade explodes with a running forearm that downs Camieko hard. 

Troy:  Looks like Jade has taken control.

Ferrara:  She has, and I don’t see her relinquishing it anytime soon either.

Camieko struggles to her feet, and Jade downs her with another big forearm.  Jade lifts Camieko up and whips her hard into the corner, following her in with a splash.  As Camieko stumbles forward, Jade downs her with a DDT.  The crowd boos as Jade lets out an insane scream, before lifting Camieko off the mat and destroying her with a brutal side effect.  Jade hooks the leg… one, two, three.

Troy:  Well THAT sure was dominant.

Ferrara:  I think Jade realizes that Keiko Ishida will have a mystery opponent for her next week that is the only thing standing between her and a Women’s title shot at Temptation.  She was focused.

Troy:  I’ll say.

As Jade sits up, with a crazed look in her eyes, “Zerospace” hits and we take another commercial break.
WINNER VIA PINFALL AT 4:13:  JADE

SEGMENT 6:  BACKSTAGE:
A camera is set backstage in the dressing room of Paul Dawkins, who is pacing back and forth, pounding his fist into his palm when his door opens. Dawkins stops abruptly and stands coldly still as Renegade walks through the door.

 

Dawkins: Before you say a single word, if you want another match with me, now isn't the time alright?

 

Renegade: You've got it wrong Paul. I do want a match with you, but now is the time.

 

Dawkins: What are you getting at?

 

Renegade: I heard about the match you've got set at Forsaken, and you've got quite the problem. There is nobody in this locker room that can beat both Baccaro and Grieco by themselves, not even you Paul. You need a partner, and since I haven't seen anyone else step up to offer, I figured I would. I know we've got some history and all, but--

 

Dawkins: But what?! Renegade, you and your boys tried to end my career early on here, all out of your jealousy against me, and now that I could use a hand from somebody, you expect me to choose you? Listen man, I've got it bad enough with it being 2-on-1, but I'll be damned if I walk into a 3-on-1 so you could finish the job.

 

Renegade: That's not what I-

 

Dawkins: Enough man! I've got a match now. Hopefully I won't see you around.

 

Dawkins heads for the ring, leaving Renegade alone in the room.

 

Renegade: You will see me around Paul. I guarantee it.

 SEGMENT 7:  MATCH 3:  PAUL DAWKINS VS. MIKE GRIECO:
Referee:  Matt Hansen

We return to the ring, where Sevendust's "Black" has just hit the speakers for the arrival of Paul Dawkins. Already fired up from his backstage interaction with Renegade, Dawkins barely pays attention to the big ovation he receives as he power walks down to the ring.

 

Troy: Dawkins looks amped tonight, do you think Renegade got into his head a little bit?

 

Ferrara: I think so, but a lot of it comes from last week's attack by Mike Grieco. I know he and Renegade have some history, but maybe Paul should have listened to him. He's got to face the fact that he cannot beat both Baccaro and Grieco alone. Hell, I'm not sure he can beat Grieco one-on-one tonight. The man is a former International Champion, twice over.

 

Troy: And he also put Liz Rush out of action with his maniacal assault last week. 

 

"Da Repercussions" by 50 Cent plays next, bringing a wave of boos from the capacity crwod as Dee Licious leads Mike Grieco to the ring. Dee carries a look of nervousness and then forces a smile as Grieco poses on top of the ramp. He then grabs her by the arm and they walk down the ramp together, until an irate Dawkins hops from the ring and charges up the ramp to meet him!

 

Dawkins quickly sends Grieco reeling with a heavy right hand to the face, causing Dee to scamper away. Dawkins and Grieco then trade fists, but Dawkins is the clear aggressor once he knocks Grieco down on the cold, steel ramp.

 

He grabs Grieco by the hair and kicks him in the midsection, backing him up near the edge of the ramp that leads to the arena floor. Grieco begins reeling on the edge, but Dee hits Dawkins in the back to divert his attention. Dawkins tries to chase her away, but once he re-focuses on Grieco, the former International Champion sends him down hard to the ramp with a clothesline!

 

Troy: What a big clothesline from Grieco! This match hasn't even become official yet, and these two are taking it to each other!

 

Ferrara: Matt Hansen is one of the best refs in the business, but he can't get these guys in the ring yet!

 

Grieco gets Dawkins off the ramp and puts him in position for his Double Powerbomb, but before he can lift him up, Dawkins scores with a big back body drop that sends Grieco to the steel! Grieco yells in pain as his spine connects with the ramp, but Dawkins looks out to the crowd before calling for The M.O.A.B. on the steel grating!

 

Troy: Dawkins is looking for The Mother of All Bombs, right there on the ramp!

 

Ferrara: That'll break Grieco's back!

 

Troy: I don't think he cares!

 

Dawkins sets Grieco up for The M.O.A.B. on the ramp, but before he can start, Jackie Baccaro darts down the ramp and clubs him from behind! Dawkins crumples to the ground and Baccaro puts the boots to him as Hansen throws the match out and calls for the bell.

 

Troy: The bell just rang, but this match never started. And now, Jackie Baccaro is going to work on Paul Dawkins!

 

Baccaro lifts Dawkins up and rolls him into the ring before reviving Grieco. Grieco and Baccaro then climb into the ring and stomp Dawkins down into a corner before Dee hands Grieco a chair. Grieco calls Baccaro off and looks to attack with the weapon, but Renegade rushes down the ramp with a chair of his own!

 

Before Grieco and Baccaro know if he is on their side or not, Renegade makes the choice for them by swinging the chair at each, barely missing them as they jump out of the ring! Renegade stands over Dawkins with the chair cocked and ready as Baccaro, Grieco and Dee backpedal quickly up the ramp.

 

Troy: Renegade has just proved which side he's on!

 

Ferrara: But what will Paul's reaction be?

 

Dawkins shoves Renegade away as he pulls himself off the mat. Renegade drops the chair as Dawkins shakes the cobwebs and he extends his hand out to his former partner. Dawkins looks out to the crowd, which cheers for him to shake it. Renegade pleads with Dawkins, who mouths the words "thank you" to him before shaking his hand to a huge ovation!

 

Troy: There it is!

 

"Black" replays as Renegade and Dawkins exit the ring and we take a commercial break.

WINNER VIA DISQUALIFICATION AT 8:13:  PAUL DAWKINS
