LOKOMOTIV STADIUM
SEGMENT 1: INTRODUCTION:
A video package airs, highlighting events that took place
last week on Frequency, with Greg Tantalus coming to the assistance of Scythe
and Briggs in a tag team match against Mike Griffin and Jonathan Brett, after Superstar
Scott Hosemann returned to press the Legacy advantage. Tantalus helped to clear the ring and restore
order as the show closed. The opening
credits then roll as
Troy: That’s right Paul, earlier this
afternoon, we had a press conference out in the parking lot and it was a doozy!
As Troy talks, the television audience is shown rolling footage from the press
conference, showing PWA Champion Hollywood Mike Griffin, Justin Schenck, ORA
Champion GI Jew, Vladimir Vydrina, Rodney King, Vulture, and International Champion
Jackie Baccaro.
Troy: In addition, we have a six-man tag
team match pitting Progressive Champion Renegade, Paul Dawkins and James
Biamonte against -- get this -- Mike Grieco, Dexter P. Wellington, and his
butler Winston!
Ferrara: That is absolutely ridiculous,
Troy: Hey, I don’t have it in me to feel
bad for Dex
Troy: Alright folks, enough
talking. Let’s get to ringside and get
this show on the road!
SEGMENT 2: MATCH
1: PAUL EPTON & JOHN WOLFE VS. JON
DULBERG & VLADIMIR VYDRINA:
Referee:
Jason Church
The commentators
are cut off by “Exorcism” by Theatres Des Vampires hitting the speakers, and
the crowd actually responds with an array of hearty cheers as Vladimir Vydrina
and Jon Dulberg approach the ring, accompanied by Rodney King and Natasha
Vydrina.
Troy:
We are here in Moscow tonight, and if you didn’t know it already, you
know it now, hearing the response that hometown hero Vlad
Vydrina is getting right now.
Ferrara: These people certainly don’t forget
their countrymen, so it looks like Dulberg and Vydrina are gonna enjoy a rare
positive crowd response tonight.
As they prepare themselves in the ring, “Stockholm Syndrome” by Muse hits
and the crowd cheers loudly for Paul Epton and John Wolfe as they approach the
ring. The two enter the ring and
immediately go after Dulberg and Vydrina and the four men get it on, with Epton
battling Dulberg, and Wolfe slugging it out with Vydrina. The dust settles, and it is Epton and Dulberg
who start the match. Epton gets the
better of Dulberg in the very early going, but Dulberg makes a quick recovery,
and the veteran grounds Epton and begins working him over in his corner. Dulberg whips Epton into the buckle and keeps
him off guard with knife-edge chops.
Dulberg then tags Vydrina into the match, who begins viciously
overpowering him. Vydrina whips Epton
into the ropes and nails him with a huge sidewalk slam as he returns. Vydrina then lifts Epton up and tosses him
back into the corner, working over his midsection and not allowing him to get
free.
Troy:
After the beating Epton and Wolfe took at the hands of The Legacy last
week, it’s not surprising me that they’re off to a slow start here tonight.
Vydrina keeps the assault on Epton mounted until Epton nails Vydrina with a
dropkick out of nowhere, crawls across the ring, and makes a tag to John Wolfe! Wolfe comes in on fire, going right at it
with Vydrina, knocking him down! Dulberg
comes into the ring and receives a chokeslam for his
efforts! However, as Wolfe locks in on
Vydrina, the tag team champions Steve Beovich and Greg Price hit the ring,
laying him out, prompting the bell to sound!
Darrin Giles and Justin Schenck quickly make their way out as well, and
Dulberg and Vydrina join in on a full-scale assault of Epton and Wolfe.
No one comes to Epton and Wolfe’s aid, and a violent beatdown
of the former tag champs from the

SEGMENT 3:
BACKSTAGE:
A camera is set backstage in a dressing room, where GI Jew
is talking with Renegade, Paul Dawkins and James Biamonte about their match
this evening.
Jew: But yeah man, I see where you're comin
from. That is your sister. If somebody even thought about doing my sister like
that, I'd ---
All conversation halts once the door opens and Anthony Failla
appears. Biamonte wastes no time in hopping off his chair and getting in his
face.
Failla: James, for once, my beef isn't with you. I'm here
to see him and I'm here to talk.
Jew: It's cool guys. Let him in.
I'll meet up with you after that match. Come on big man, have a seat.
Cameraman, you stay in here too.
Dawkins and Renegade leave without wasting any time, but Biamonte
makes sure his stare is cold before slowly backing out of the room. The
cameraman stays as Failla takes the seat that Biamonte held.
Jew: You know there were four of us in here and even
you aren't dumb enough to try me against those odds. So if you're here to
talk...talk.
Failla: Yeah, I'm here to talk. I wanna
know what’s on your mind man. Think about it. Last week, I
dropped you on your dome and pinned you one...two...three. And now, you're
gonna fight me at Symphony of Destruction in a Last Man Standing Match? Do you
know what you are getting into here? Josh, this is the most brutal match in the
world. There is no pinning, you can't give up, the
only way to win is to knock me out. You can't put me on my back for three
seconds, what the hell makes you think you can keep me down and out for ten?
You have no chance to win. We gave you an opportunity to hand the belt back to
where it belongs, but you didn't want that. You chose to fight me. Well this
Saturday, fighting me is going to be the biggest, and last, mistake of your
life.
Jew: So, the point of all this was to come in here and
threaten me? Let me tell you something Failla, I am just not the guy you want
to come in here screwing with. Think about it man. I am 34 years old, in the
best shape of my life and more than ready to beat your ass up and down every
inch of that ballpark. But look at you. You are over forty years old, thinking
you're a really tough guy, but I do not fear you Failla. All you are to me is a
mystique. This is not CAW bro. If it wasn't for tweedledee,
tweedledumb, and tweedleskank,
you would have never gotten a W over me last week. You might be able to walk
around and be almost 300 pounds and scare people, but I'd look death right in
the face and spit in it before I'd ever have an ounce of fear in my heart for
you. At Symphony of Destruction, all of this between us will end. But
that's not because i won't give you another shot at
this belt. Its because I am going to end
your career. Now I'm not saying that to be cliche. I
am dead serious. I am going to do whatever I have to do to not just keep
you down for ten, I'm going to keep you down for
the rest of your miserable life in this business. And you know it.
You didn't come in here to threaten me. You're here to see if I would be shaken
by your little words. Well I'm not the one who is scared big man. You are.
You're scared because you know time is running out and I will not hesitate to
cross the line that everybody else won't. You have no idea what you have gotten
yourself into big man. And this Saturday, I'm not out to win the match. I'm out
to put a career to rest, and I'll just win the match in the process as a bonus.
Now ask yourself a question. Are you willing to risk it all and cross the line
to end my career? Because I am.
GI Jew looks coldly into Failla's eyes,
and he gives the same stare before nodding his head, getting up and storming
out of the room. Another camera catches up to him as he turns a corner and
nearly barrels into an oncoming Bryan Conroy.
Conroy: Hey! What the hell is going on Anthony?!
Failla: You wanna know?! You wanna know
Conroy: WHAT?!
Failla: You heard me! If I don't win on Saturday, me and The PWA are finished! I'll walk! just remember I said
this, because I guarantee that you'll be carrying his lifeless body out of that
building and into that water once I'm through with him!
Failla tosses Conroy aside before storming away, leaving Conroy's
feathers ruffled in a huge way as the shot fades out.

JUMBOTRON:
Evanescence’s “Thoughtless”
hits the speakers and we see a graphic appear on the screen that reads “PWA
Symphony of Destruction Report.” From there, the shot takes us to a
backstage set and PWA reporter Ron O’Brien, who is standing in front of a
backdrop featuring the Symphony of Destruction logo.
O’Brien: Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Ron O’Brien and this is the
Symphony of Destruction report. Folks, we’re just four days away from
what promises to be one of the biggest pay-per-view spectaculars in the history
of the PWA, Symphony of Destruction, live from

SEGMENT 5: BACKSTAGE:
Back from commercial, Vulture is seen walking down the
hall, alone, seemingly in a good mood.
He reaches the dressing room for himself and International Champion
Jackie Baccaro and enters. However, his
expression changes when he enters the room, seeing Lauren Tantalus sitting
inside, in tears.
Vulture:
What? What’s the matter?
Lauren: Nothing. It’s nothing.
Vulture: No, it’s obviously not nothing. What’s
wrong?
Lauren: It doesn’t matter. You made it abundantly clear last week that
we’re not friends, so it doesn’t matter.
Vulture: Lauren, stop playing
games. Just tell me why you’re crying.
Lauren: It’s this whole setup,
Mike. It’s knowing
that in a few days, we’ll be back in the
Vulture: What do you mean?
Lauren: Mike, I don’t want to be in
wrestling anymore. I’ve realized that in
the past month, being all over
Vulture: I can’t let you go, Lauren.
Lauren: And why not? Because Jackie will question your
manhood? Where is Jackie?
Vulture: He’s at the hotel. He’s not booked tonight, so he’s back
there. We’re talking strategy for the
SOD, I really just came here to pick up a couple of things I left earlier this
afternoon and talk to a few people, but he’s back at the hotel.
Lauren: You need to decide for yourself
how you really feel about me and what you want to do. You have the opportunity to allow me to move
on with my life. It’s a win-win for
you. I know you don’t forgive me and you
don’t want to see me anymore, and this accomplishes that. You’ll be getting rid of me from the PWA for
good, terminating my contract. It’s the
perfect scenario. I beg of you. I appeal to your most humane bones. I know they’re in there. Don’t do this for me. Do it for yourself. Do it to finally close the door on this
chapter in both our lives. Send me
away. Because Mike, I’m miserable. I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m begging you for my release. Please, please, think about it.
Vulture: (long pause) You know what,
Lauren? I really can’t think about this
right now. Not with SOD just four days
away. But I promise you, I will have an
answer for you next week. I will think
about it. And next week, I will make a
decision.
Lauren: (smiling) Thank you.
Vulture: Don’t mention it. Now go enjoy the last night of this European
trip. I’m going back to the hotel, a ton
of work to do. Don’t even bother coming
to SOD either. We don’t need you there,
don’t need any distractions. But next
Tuesday in
Lauren: Gotcha.
Vulture: Goodbye.
Lauren: Bye.
Lauren then exits the room and Vulture is left pacing inside, in deep
thought, before bursting back out through the door and heading in the opposite
direction.
SEGMENT 6: BACKSTAGE:
In another portion of the backstage area, we see Liz Rush
with Progressive Champion Renegade and Paul Dawkins in the hall.
Liz:
Alright, good luck guys!
Renegade: Thanks Liz.
Dawkins: Thanks baby. We’ll be right back.
Liz: Can’t wait. Bring home a W!
Dawkins: We will.
Dawkins then kisses Liz and they head towards the ring for their six-man
tag, which is next. Liz then turns
around, but finds herself standing face-to-face with Walter Gindin and Women’s
Champion Keiko Ishida.
Liz:
What do you want?
Keiko: Four days, Liz. Four days.
Four days until I end your career for good.
Liz: Oh yeah? Talk is cheap, Keiko. Back it up in the ring. I’ll be waiting for you.
Keiko: (smirking) If you insist.
Gindin: Liz Rush, prepare for the
beating of a lifetime this Saturday.
Good luck… you’ll certainly need it.
Gindin and Ishida then walk off laughing, leaving a pissed off Liz Rush behind
as we head to commercial break.

SEGMENT 7:
MATCH 2: PROGRESSIVE CHAMPION
RENEGADE, PAUL DAWKINS AND JAMES BIAMONTE VS. MIKE GRIECO, DEXTER P. WELLINGTON
AND WINSTON:
Referee: Billy Vargas
The shot quickly cuts backstage to the interview
area, where Rick Madsen is alongside Mike Grieco, Dexter P. Wellington and
Winston.
Madsen: Dex, your match is scheduled to be up next, but you
requested this interview time. What's on your mind?
Cox: Dexter, you are
holding up this broadcast bud. I heard what you had to say, and you might be
right. But after what you did to Liz Rush last week, I think it’s more than justified
that you have your butler as your partner, and what happens will happen. But if
you hold this show up for one more minute, not only will you have no partner at
all, you will not have your own paycheck to allow you to sign his paychecks.
Got me?
Troy: As much as he interferes
around it, it’s about time he have to step in there
and handle his business the fair way.
The trio enters the ring to argue further with Jose Soares, but the
official just puts his hands up and shakes his head. The attention changes
quickly once 50 Cent's "Piggy Bank" hits and Renegade leads James
Biamonte and Paul Dawkins in a race to the ring! The crowd cheers as they tear
into their opposition!
Biamonte jumps right on top of Grieco, sending both men tumbling out of
the ring! Winston stays away as Renegade and Dawkins beat
The bell finally sounds as
Dawkins takes his place on the ring apron as
Renegade gets near Dawkins, but Winston comes in to distract
Soares. Renegade does make the tag and the crowd explodes, but Soares catches
Dawkins and forces him out of the ring to a loud series of boos. Winston pulls
Renegade back to their corner and begins to unleash a big double team assault
on the champion.
Ferrara: The Million
Dollar Dream is on, and he's got it good
Renegade flails his arms wildly, but its to no
avail. Soares lifts his arm twice, but before it can drop a third time, Dawkins
steps into the ring. Soares stops to cut him off, but it also breaks the count,
much to
Dawkins reaches out after him, but he is clubbed from behind by
Winston. The move only serves to infuriate Dawkins, and he kicks Winston hard
in the midsection before hitting the ropes and dropping his head down into the
mat with a Scud Missile legdrop!
Ferrara: Its okay, he's
gonna wait until The Symphony of Destruction to do his damage. We are looking
at the next Progressive Champion.
Troy: We could be, but
the current one is looking pretty damn good right now. Same said for Paul
Dawkins. We'll be right back.
