TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 2006 * TOKYO DOME * TOKYO, JAPAN

The opening credits roll and "By_Myslf" by Linkin Park hits as the cameras take us inside the Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Japan, where a brilliant pyrotechnics display ensues, and we are taken to our commentators, Victor Troy and Scott Hosemann.

 

Troy: Hello everyone, and welcome to PWA Frequency! I'm Victor Troy, along here with Scott Hosemann, and we are live in Tokyo for what is sure to be a huge night!

Hosemann: Absolutely,
Troy! I have been waiting for this date on our calendar for the longest time! The fans here in Japan are absolutely rabid, and they are ready to enjoy themselves big time here tonight!

 

Troy: And we’re certainly going to give these fans something to cheer about! Tonight, in our main event, we will see our two top matches for this Saturday’s Requiem pay-per-view go at it in a tag team bout. Only, the Saturday opponents will be partners tonight! That’s right! It will be the team of Jaguar and Greg Tantalus going up against the duo of PWA Champion Jason Calysto and Jackie Baccaro!

 

Hosemann: That should be mighty interesting!

 

Troy: Also tonight, Morgan Day will defend the Women’s Championship against Tokyo’s own Keiko Ishida!

Hosemann: I know the fans will be energized for that one!

 

Troy: That’s not all we have though, folks, as…

 

Suddenly, “Chubby Boy” by Mannie Fresh hits the speakers, and PWA commissioner Paul Ferrara makes his way to the ring to a thunderous ovation. Ferrara grabs a microphone and heads into the ring.

 

Ferrara: First of all, I’d like to thank each and every one of you great fans for coming out tonight, and making tonight a special night for all of us in the PWA. So give yourselves a big round of applause.

The fans do just that.

 

Ferrara: Now, down to business. Bryan Conroy, in four days at Requiem, you’re going to be taught a lesson that you should NEVER have come back to the PWA. I don’t know exactly what it is that you’re planning coming back here, but you’re going to see just what a mistake it was when we get to Providence on Saturday.

 

Before Ferrara can speak another word, “Sad But True” by Metallica hits, and Bryan Conroy makes his way to the ring to a jeer-filled response. Conroy grabs his own microphone and enters the ring.

 

Conroy: I bet you’d like to know exactly why I’m back here, wouldn’t you Ferrara? But the bottom line is you simply aren’t worth it. I chose you as the victim for my return two weeks ago simply because you don’t belong in the position you’re in. Fans don’t decide authority figures; other authority figures decide authority figures. The bottom line is that you are a joke of a commissioner. You serve your own interests, and you make a mockery of this business by doing things that only entertain you.

 

Ferrara: Maybe I’m guilty of a little of that, but is that any different from what you did when you owned this joint?

 

Conroy: I’d prefer not to discuss my tenure as owner of this company. It’s a bit of a sore subject. Plus, I’m trying to move on and start fresh in my new role. My goal is to be the PWA Champion, and it is a goal that I will accomplish in due time. However, in addition to our bout at Requiem, I have a bit more on my plate, which is the main reason I came out here. And as a matter of fact, Kerry Cox, if you’re in the back, why don’t you come out here now? I’d like you to hear what I’m about to say.

 

With that, “War Machine” by KISS hits the speakers, and the Japanese fans explode for the CEO of the company, the Hardcore Icon Kerry Cox, who plied his trade in this country for many years before joining CAW in 2000. Cox is given a tremendous reception, and he grabs a microphone and enters the ring.

 

Cox: What do you want, Conroy?

 

Conroy: Well, you see, part of the reason I came back is to give myself a platform for the next project I am about to launch. Beginning in 10 days, on Friday, April 14, I will be hosting the second Golden Ring tournament. That means 65 wrestlers, six rounds of action, one winner. However, this time, I will not be limited to hosting the tournament with men under PWA contract. This will be an independently promoted venture, with the grand prize being $500,000 of my own money awarded to the winner. And, in the interest of joint-promotion, I’d like to invite the two of you, in addition to everyone back in that locker room, to participate in my tournament. I already have dates booked for the first three rounds of the tournament; all are on Fridays and Saturdays that don’t conflict with any PWA shows, and all you have to do is show up.

 

Ferrara: What do we have to gain from this, Conroy?

 

Conroy: Are you hard of hearing? I am putting up $500,000 of my own money to be awarded to the winner. I have already entered myself into the tournament. My first two invites go out to you two. Although, Ferrara, who knows if you’ll even be in the shape to compete after I’m through destroying you on Saturday? But, assuming you are, are you two in?

The fans cheer loudly as Cox and Ferrara think it over.

 

Cox: What do you think, guys, should we enter? (fans cheer loudly) Should I let PWA superstars enter? (fans cheer loudly) Alright Conroy, you have yourself a deal. Count us both in for your tournament. And you’re free to recruit any PWA superstars you want for this tournament as well. It’ll be my pleasure to see one of our guys take your money and further embarrass you.

 

Conroy: So be it. But so you know, it won’t just be PWA wrestlers. I’ve been in contact with a host of former PWA, CAW, and FSW stars, so don’t be surprised to see some familiar names you haven’t heard from in a while. And also, don’t be surprised when I win the Golden Ring tournament myself and win back my own money. Next week on Frequency, as I’m celebrating my ultimate victory over you, Ferrara, I will announce the full brackets for this tournament. Have a good night, gentlemen.

 

With that, “Sad But True” hits and Conroy exits to the back as the fans buzz and Cox and Ferrara have a discussion in the ring.

 

Troy: What a blockbuster announcement! Another Golden Ring tournament!

 

Hosemann: Troy, you heard it here first! For $500,000, I’m coming out of retirement to enter that tournament!

 

Troy: Oh my! This is unreal! Folks, we’ll be right back! What a start to this night!

 

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Back from break, “Opium of the People” by Slipknot blasts onto the speakers and GI Jew appears from behind the curtain, making his first appearance since losing to Hollywood Mike Griffin at Salvation nearly one month ago!

 

Troy: And here comes GI Jew, making his return to the PWA after a nearly four week absence! The hits just keep on coming!

 

Hosemann: They sure do, Troy! GI Jew has returned, and he’s about to do battle with a member of his perennial nemesis, Army of the Damned!

 

Back in the ring, we see Reaper standing inside, stretching himself out, ready for combat. Jew enters the ring, and immediately goes to work on Reaper, prompting the bell to sound.

* GI JEW VS. REAPER *
Referee: Jason Church
Jew pounds Reaper down to the mat, and the fans cheer him loudly for doing so. Reaper is able to battle himself back to his feet and shove him off. However, as Reaper lets up for a second, Jew downs him with a hard clothesline! Reaper stands up, and Jew downs him with a hard spinebuster! With that, Jew gets in position for the Gore!

 

Troy: GI Jew is getting ready for the Gore! This match is barely a minute old, and Jew is preparing for the Gore!

Hosemann: Unbelievable! This match is about to be history!

Reaper gets up and turns around and Jew lets loose with a furious Gore! However, as soon as he hits the Gore, Bishop Cross and Loki hit the ring and attack Jew! The referee rings the disqualification bell and Cross and Loki continue to beat down Jew until Reaper gets up, and then a three-on-one attack ensues. The Army goes to work viciously on Jew as the fans boo vociferously, but then Scythe leads the Tag Team Champions Paul Dawkins and Renegade out to the ring, to clear it of the Army! The fans cheer loudly, and the Army flees!

 

Troy: Oh my God! Scythe and the tag team champions have come to the aid of GI Jew! I never thought I’d see the day that Scythe made the save for GI Jew!

 

Hosemann: Unbelievable, Troy!

 

The fans cheer loudly as Scythe, Dawkins, and Renegade chase the Army backstage. GI Jew slowly, confusedly makes it to his feet as we take a commercial break.

* WINNER VIA DISQUALIFICATION: GI JEW *

 

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

As we return, the camera takes us backstage, where Nick Cade is standing by with Keiko Ishida, sans manager Walter Gindin. As soon as the Tokyo crowd sees Keiko on the screen, it bursts into riotous cheers.

Cade: Keiko Ishida, what is going through your head as you prepare for one last shot at Morgan Day’s Women’s Championship in just a few minutes, especially with everyone, including your manager Walter Gindin, barred from ringside?

 

Keiko: (translated from Japanese) Tonight is my night, Nick. I am here tonight in front of all my compatriots, and I did not come here to let them down. I know in my heart that I can do this without a manager in my corner, and that I can do this despite the fact that Morgan Day holds two pinfalls over me and I but a count-out victory over her. Tonight, I am more determined that I have ever been before. Tonight, I will do anything it takes to obtain victory. Tonight, I become the new Women’s Champion.

With that, Keiko walks off screen, and the fans continue to cheer thunderously.

 

The camera cuts to another portion of the backstage area, where Traci Reed is standing with the PWA Women’s Champion Morgan Day.

 

Traci: Morgan, the time is drawing near. Coming up next, you will defend the Women’s Championship one more time against Keiko Ishida. What are your thoughts, so close to match time?

Morgan: Well Traci, I’m focused. Even though I’ve been successful as of late against Keiko Ishida, if you lose focus against her, you might as well not even show up at the arena. She is a gifted athlete, and the greatest opponent I’ve ever had, but tonight, here in her hometown, I will take her down, and I will take away her right to challenge me for this championship. I will…

Suddenly, Morgan is blindsided with a forearm to the head by Magnifica! Traci flees in fear, and Magnifica pounds away on Morgan Day in the backstage hallway. Magnifica then lifts Morgan up and smashes her head into the locker room wall, which splits Morgan open! Magnifica then flees, as Morgan is left bloodied on the ground and we take a commercial break.

 

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Back from break, we see a fuming Vulture charging through the backstage area, before opening a door and entering a dressing room containing a laughing and smiling Magnifica and Jackie Baccaro.

 

Vulture: What the hell was that?! Huh?! What the hell does Morgan have to do with ANYTHING that either of you are involved with?! She has a title match that is being postponed now by about 15 minutes, as she gets stitched up in the back, tries to shake off what could be a damn CONCUSSION, and goes out there to defend her title! This is bullshit! I know this is your way of trying to get back at me, trying to mess me up, but go after me, Magnifica. Go after me, Jackie. Because what you’re doing is bullshit. Morgan has NOTHING to do with this.

 

Magnifica: She has everything to do with this, because she has everything to do with YOU. We told you not to have any involvement with her at PWA shows, and we both saw you two talking to each other backstage a few hours before the show started. Jackie has a big tag team match tonight, you know that. Someone had to pay the price for what you did, and we figured you’d learn a better lesson if there was an attack on Morgan that you were personally responsible for. Because believe me, it IS your fault. She is going to lose the Women’s Championship tonight now, and with ALL ringside interference banned in that match, you will be powerless to save her. And just know that when she does lose the title, it will be all your fault.

Vulture: You really are a bitch, you know that? I’m just sorry I didn’t kill you when I had the chance three years ago.

 

Magnifica: A real man would have finished the job. But you’re not a real man. You’re a shell. You can’t even defend yourself, Vulture. I shouldn’t even call you that anymore. You’re just plain old Mike. You’re not a real man like Jackie. Jackie is going to be the world champion again on Saturday, and it will be no thanks to you. In fact, since you’ve shown such blatant disrespect for us both tonight, I’m going to ask you to leave. We don’t need you at ringside tonight. Just show up Saturday in Providence, because we will need you there to make sure Jackie’s ready. Unless of course you’d like to be in breach of contract.

Vulture is fuming, but can do nothing.

Vulture: You’ll burn in hell for this. Both of you. I’ll make sure of it.

With that, Vulture exits, and Magnifica and Baccaro are left smiling.

Magnifica: Oh how wrong you are, Vulture. Oh how very, very wrong you are.

The two begin laughing as the camera fades out and we take another break.

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK –

 

Back from break, “Parabola” by TOOL hits the speakers and the fans begin booing loudly as Hollywood Mike Griffin and James Biamonte make their way to the ring, accompanied by managers Justin Schenck and Jade. The two settle themselves in the ring, and the fans begin cheering loudly as “Footprints” by G-Unit hits and the International Champion Showtime Damon Savage makes his way to the ring. Showtime pauses at the foot of the ramp and then, moments later, “Arcarsenal” by At the Drive-In hits, and the fans give a warm welcome to the Miracle Mike Troha! Troha joins Showtime at the bottom of the ramp, and the two slide into the ring, immediately going at it with their Requiem opposition. As Biamonte and Savage clear the ring, we are left with Griffin and Troha slugging it out and the bell sounds!

 

Troy: Alright, here we go! Our women’s championship match has been delayed until after this next tag team bout in attempt to allow Morgan Day some more recovery time.

Hosemann: It certainly was a heinous attack, Troy, but now we have this tag team match which should be something else, as both Griffin and Troha, and Showtime and Biamonte prepare to do battle at Requiem.

* HOLLYWOOD MIKE GRIFFIN & JAMES BIAMONTE VS. PWA INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION SHOWTIME DAMON SAVAGE & THE MIRACLE MIKE TROHA *
Referee: Billy Vargas
Troha gains the advantage in the slugfest, backing Griffin to the ropes. Troha then whips Griffin off and downs him with a hard back body drop that the fans cheer wildly for! Griffin gets up, and Troha downs him with a dropkick that sends Griffin tumbling to the outside!

 

Troy: How about this! Troha is off to a fast start against Mike Griffin!

Hosemann: I didn’t expect any less,
Troy! Troha is hell bent on destroying Griffin, and he doesn’t want to waste any time!

 

Griffin regroups on the outside, talking to his manager Schenck. Hollywood then steps back into the ring, and ties up with Troha. This time, Griffin establishes a bit of an edge, tying Troha in a hard headlock. Griffin squeezes the hold tightly, but Troha is able to gain control and down Griffin with a hard belly to back suplex! The fans cheer loudly, and Hollywood quickly retreats to his corner and tags James Biamonte into the match. Biamonte steps into the ring and prepares to lock up with Troha, but Showtime begs to be tagged in from the ring apron. Troha obliges, and Showtime and Biamonte square off in the middle of the ring.

Troy: Here we go! A preview of this Saturday’s International Championship bout!

Hosemann: These two know each other very well,
Troy. They’ve wrestled many times and compliment each other’s styles well. Tonight, it’s all about getting a bit of momentum heading into Requiem, because with these two, a little momentum may be all that’s needed.

 

Biamonte and Showtime lock up, and Biamonte gains the advantage, kneeing Showtime in the gut and taking him down with a hard snap suplex. Biamonte stomps away on the International Champion, and Showtime struggles to get back to his feet. When Showtime rises, Biamonte grabs him and whips him into the corner, following him in with a hard, stiff clothesline in the corner. Showtime stumbles out of the corner, and Biamonte grabs the back of his head and plants his face into the mat. With Showtime on the mat, Biamonte locks him in a Texas cloverleaf, locking it in tightly, trying to force the International Champion into submission. However, Showtime is able to crawl his way to the ropes and grab them, forcing the hold to be broken. Biamonte relinquishes the hold, but quickly tries to put it back on. However, Showtime gets up to his feet, and nails Biamonte with an enziguri that downs him hard! From there, Biamonte crawls to the corner, and is able to tag Griffin into the match, but by the time Griffin charges Showtime, he tags Troha in!

 

Troy: And here we go again! Griffin and Troha!

 

The two begin slugging it out violently as the fans cheer loudly and Troha gets the advantage, nailing Griffin with a hard right to the jaw that spins him completely around! However as Griffin turns around dazed, Schenck tosses him brass knucks! Jade then jumps onto the apron and distracts the official, and Griffin turns around and clocks Troha in the jaw with the knucks! Griffin then falls atop Troha and puts the knucks in his trunks as the ref turns around… one, two, three!

 

Troy: No! This is a travesty!

 

The fans boo loudly as “Parabola” blares onto the speakers, and Biamonte and Griffin escape with their managers like thieves in the night. Showtime enters the ring and checks on Griffin as he glares back angrily at the escapees.

 

Hosemann: Well Troy, this match was all about momentum heading into Requiem, and it looks like it’s Griffin and Biamonte that have it right now.

 

Troy: Scott, as much as I hate to say it, I can’t dispute that. Folks, we’ll be right back with our Women’s Championship match!
* WINNERS VIA PINFALL: HOLLYWOOD MIKE GRIFFIN & JAMES BIAMONTE *
