1ST MARINER ARENA
SEGMENT 1: INTRODUCTION:
A video package airs, highlighting events that took place
last week, with PWA Champion Romeo accepting a challenge from Scythe to face
him for the title April 9 at Requiem, and a main event which saw Infernus turn
on his partner Jason Calysto against Solomon and ORA Champion Anthony Failla,
resulting in a three-on-one beatdown, before Solomon
unexpectedly hit Failla with the Deep Freeze. The opening credits then
roll as
Ferrara: Sure was,
SEGMENT 2: RINGSIDE:
The commentators are suddenly cut off by “Shoot Outs” by Jadakiss and Styles P blasting on the speakers, followed by
the ORA World Heavyweight Champion Anthony Failla making his way to the ring,
accompanied by PWA owner Bryan Conroy and ORA president Helen Summers. An angry Failla grabs a microphone and heads
into the ring with his two counterparts, preparing to speak.
Failla:
I’m sure you all saw what happened last week, and as you can imagine, I’m
not happy. I bet you all were wondering
why Solomon did that to me, why Solomon hit me with a Deep Freeze while we were
partners last week, but I think I have an idea.
Let me take you back two weeks, to Las Vegas, when we were meeting at
The Rio, the same night we took out Jason Calysto and pretended to take our
their boy Infernus to set up Calysto.
Well, we were meeting there because Gindin was trying to set up a super
match for Requiem, with me putting the ORA title on the line against
Solomon. I told them I’d think it over
that night, and decided, before last week’s show, to turn them down. I’m the world champion,
I don’t need to defend the title against Solomon. If he could prove to me that he was the
number one contender to this title, then maybe I’d consider giving him a
shot. Well, last week, him hitting me with the Deep Freeze was his way of proving
it to me. So, with that said, Solomon,
get your ass here, I’ve got something to say to you.
Moments later, “Hear Me” by Darkseed blares onto
the speakers and Solomon makes his way to the ring alongside his agent Walter
Gindin. The two enter the ring and Gindin
hands a microphone to his once-defeated client.
Solomon:
I’m here. What do you have to
say?
Failla: You sent a message to me last week, and I got it.
You want your title match? I’ve
got Mr. Conroy and Ms. Summers right here, ready to authorize it. It’ll be literally the biggest championship
match this company has ever seen, Anthony Failla against Solomon for the world
title.
Solomon: Funny how a little Deep Freeze
changes everything.
Failla: Oh all that Deep Freeze did was
light a fire. You’ve been beaten once
before, but this time, you’re gonna be beaten within an inch of your miserable
life. At Requiem, we’ll be paying our
last respects to the monster known as Solomon.
Solomon: Pretty confident, huh? Don’t worry, Failla. I’ll have no problem beating that confidence
out of you April 9 at Requiem.
The two men then stare each other down as Conroy takes a microphone.
Conroy:
So it’s official. On April 9 at
Requiem, the ORA presents, for the World Heavyweight
Championship, Anthony Failla versus Solomon!
The staredown continues as “Sad But True” hits and we take a commercial break.

SEGMENT 3: MATCH 1:
MIKE GRIECO VS. DAMIEN FIELDS:
Referee:
Jason Church
Back from commercial, Metallica’s “Ride
the Lightning” hits and former tag team champion Damien Fields makes his way to
the ring to a sizeable ovation. Fields
enters the ring and prepares himself as “Da
Repercussions” by 50 Cent hits and Mike Grieco starts down the aisle to an
exorbitant amount of boos. Grieco,
seemingly unaffected by the massively negative reaction, enters the ring and
immediately pounces on Fields as the bell sounds.
Ferrara: Hmm, Grieco aggressive? That’s a shocker. Well, at least it’s against a male this time.
Grieco pounds away on Fields with clubbing forearms,
pounding him into the corner. As Grieco
finally relents, Fields stumbles out of the corner, only to be downed with a
hard belly-to-belly suplex. Grieco puts
the boots to Fields, not allowing the exciting young superstar to make it back
to his feet. Finally, when Fields does get
up, Grieco shoves him back into the corner and stings him with thunderous,
furious chops to the chest. Grieco
continues the assault, but suddenly, James Biamonte comes through the crowd,
darts into the ring, and spears Grieco to the mat!
Biamonte and Grieco brawl viciously on the mat as a slew
of PWA officials stampedes toward the ring, trying to restore order. Security steps in between the two, separating
them, as we take a commercial break.

SEGMENT 4: RINGSIDE:
Back from commercial, “Zerospace”
by Kidneythieves hits the speakers and Jade makes her
way to the ring to a sizeable ovation from the crowd. She grabs a microphone and heads into the
ring, ready to speak.
Jade:
Alright, last week, I made a challenge to Keiko Ishida to put the Women’s
Championship on the line against me at Requiem, and tonight, I want an
answer. I didn’t come out here to waste
any time, so let’s get right to it.
Keiko Ishida, come on out and give me an answer.
Moments later, “The Stone Monkey” by Kazu Matsui
hits and the dominant Women’s Champion Keiko Ishida makes
her way to the ring, escorted by her agent, the crafty Walter Gindin, who stops
at the top of the ramp with a microphone.
Gindin:
So Jade, how does it feel to be on the outside looking in? You used to have my services, but you proved
yourself to be so remarkably inadequate that I had no choice but to shift gears
to a competitor who could actually get things done in the ring. You want an answer to your challenge? That answer is simply no,
Keiko Ishida will not accept your challenge, because you are not a
challenge. However, she will take the
opportunity to beat you within an inch of your life one more time, and this
time, she just might finish the job. See
you in
With that, “The Stone Monkey” hits the speakers again, and
Ishida and Jade stare each other down intently as we take another break.

SEGMENT 5: MATCH 2:
GREG TANTALUS VS. DEXTER P. WELLINGTON:
Referee:
Billy Vargas
Returning from break, “Marriage of Figaro” hits the speakers and
Dexter P. Wellington makes his way to the ring, accompanied by Winston, for
quite possibly the biggest match of his young career. Still possessing the arrogance he always
does,
Troy:
Alright, here we go! Tantalus
goes right after him!
Ferrara: You know
Troy, Wellington is undefeated here in the PWA, but that all might change tonight.
Tantalus promptly spears
Tantalus tries to move in on
Bashing Tantalus with repeated stomps, keeping him grounded,
Tantalus fights hard in the move and finds there to be no
escape. However, with the referee
checking to see if Tantalus is ready to tap, the Smooth One nails
Brett continues stomping away on Tantalus as

SEGMENT 7: MATCH
2: NON-TITLE MATCH: PROGRESSIVE CHAMPION RENEGADE VS. JACKIE
BACCARO:
Referee:
Jose Soares
Lee Palmer climbs into the ring and the crowd listens up as he
begins his announcement.
Palmer: The following non-title match is scheduled for one
fall! Introducing first, being accompanied to the ring by the PWA International
Champion, Paul Dawkins, from
"Piggy Bank" by 50 Cent begins to play, bringing a wave
of cheers from the crowd as Renegade walks through the entrance. He walks down
the ramp and plays to the crowd before rolling into the ring and posing on the
turnbuckles with his title belt high in the air. He hands the championship to
referee Dan Martin as Biggie Small's "Things
Done Changed" takes over.
Palmer: And his opponent, being
accompanied to the ring by Vulture and Lauren Tantalus, from Los Angeles,
California, weighing 265 pounds, Jackieeeee Baaaaccaroooooo!
Boos fill the air as Vulture walks out with Tantalus, followed by
Baccaro. Vulture grins cockily underneath his Kangol
hat and behind his sunglasses, and Baccaro carries a similar look as he poses
in front of his streaming gold pyro atop the stage. Lauren carries a look of
complete disgust, but the fireworks continue as Baccaro walks down to the ring,
where Renegade paces inside.
Baccaro climbs into the ring and poses on the turnbuckles before
climbing down and waiting for the bell. They circle the ring for a bit and lock
up in the center. Renegade holds his own, but is
ultimately forced backwards into a corner by Baccaro. Church asks for a clean
break, and Baccaro gives him one, after slapping Renegade in the face. The
crowd "oohs" upon contact, but it sets
Renegade off as he spears Baccaro down to the mat!
Renegade pounds Baccaro with rights and lefts until he is forced
off. Baccaro gets to his feet, but is dropped once Renegade scores with a
roundhouse kick to the chest. Renegade lifts Baccaro up and Irish whips him to
the ropes. He tries a leapfrog, but Baccaro sees it
coming and waits for Renagde to land before throwing
him with a tremendous belly-to-belly suplex! Baccaro covers for one...two...and
Renegade kicks out!
Baccaro gets Renegade off the canvas and slings him into a corner.
He charges, but Renegade hits him with both boots to the face. Baccaro staggers
backwards and is sent down with a spinning heel kick from the champion!
Renegade covers now, but gets the same two count.
Renegade exits the ring to go up to the top rope and nails Baccaro
with a double axe handle to the cranium once he rises. Baccaro is covered, but
again kicks out at the count of two. Renegade then signals to the crowd,
looking for the Kick of Death.
Renegade measures Baccaro for The Kick, but Baccaro ducks under
it. The momentum spins Renegade around and Baccaro shoves him into a corner
from his knees. Renegade hits the turnbuckles chest-first as Baccaro hits the
ropes. He tries for his forearm shot to the face, but Renegade ducks under it
and lays him out with a superkick!
Baccaro rolls out of the ring to the floor, just as Vulture climbs
up on the ring apron. Renegade goes to knock him off, but Vulture quickly hops
down once he sees Dawkins charging at him. Dawkins chases Vulture around the
ringside area, until he is blindsided by Baccaro!
Vulture stops and laughs hysterically at Dawkins, but stops once
Renegade rips his Kangol off and grabs him by the
hair!
Renegade pulls Vulture up on the apron, but he stops once he is
clubbed from behind by Baccaro and promptly drilled with a Baccaro Bomb!
Baccaro smiles widely as he looks for a cover, but the smile is quickly
vanished once Slipknot's "Opium of The People" blasts through the
speakers! Within seconds, GI Jew races down to the ring on his motorcycle and
the First Mariner Arena explodes into cheers!
Baccaro is frozen as GI Jew hops off the bike and climbs into the
ring. He goes after GI Jew a right hand, but it’s blocked as Jew comes back
with three of his own, shoots him into the ropes and runs right through him
with a devastating Gore!
Jew hops from the ring and Vulture takes off like he's Maurice
Greene, darting through the crowd with reckless abandon. Jew goes right after
him, also weaving his way through the crowd as we cut to a commercial break.
