TUESDAY, AUGUST 9, 2005 * COREL CENTRE * OTTAWA, ONTARIO, CANADA

 

A video package airs, highlighting events that took place last week, with Michelle returning to screw Greg Tantalus out of a six-man tag team victory, allowing Mike Griffin to once again get a pinfall victory over him.  From there, "By_Myslf" by Linkin Park hits and the opening credits air as we are taken inside the Corel Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.  The fans cheer wildly as a glorious pyrotechnics debut ensues, and we are sent to our commentators Victor Troy and Paul Ferrara.

 

Troy:  Hello everyone and welcome to PWA Frequency!  I'm Victor Troy, along here with Paul Ferrara, and we have a tremendous show lined up tonight!

Ferrara:  We sure do, Troy, and folks, you're not going to believe the main event tonight!

Troy:  That's right!  On the heels of the announcement that Bryan Conroy will meet Kerry Cox for full control of the PWA at Everlasting Epic IV, we have just learned that tonight, in 3-on-2 handicapped action, we will see Conroy team up with ORA Champion Romeo and Lt. Commissioner F. Anthony Annetta to take on the combination of Kerry Cox and Jaguar!

Ferrara:  That should be absolutely insane!  Kerry Cox and Bryan Conroy haven't stepped into the ring for a real match in quite some time, especially Cox, who hasn't wrestled since last year's Everlasting Epic, and I can't wait to see this go down tonight!  I expect fireworks!

Troy:  Also tonight, in what should be an unbelievable match, we will see a reprisal of a bona fide Match of the Year candidate, when Scythe squares off against Solomon!

Ferrara:  We remember how electric their Iron Man match for the PWA Championship was back in October, and I'm sure tonight's installment will bring that same degree of electricity!

Troy:  Plus folks, we're going to hear more about Everlasting Epic, we'll sign more matches, and announce some celebrity guest appearances!  It should be wild!  But first, let's head down to ringside!

Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro" begins and quickly sends the crowd into booing as Dexter P. Wellington arrives to open the show. The Progessive Champion walks to the ring alongside Winston, as Infernus and Darrin Giles pull up the rear with looks of disgust on their faces. Wellington pays his partners no mind and steps into the ring as Winston holds the ropes. As Wellington disrobes, The Prodigy's "Spitfire" plays and cheers come from the crowd as the trio of Dynamite Dean Nash, Damien Fields and Victor Simon appear and run down to the ring.

 

Troy: Nash, Simon and Fields all look pretty fired up tonight.

 

Ferrara: But Dex sure isn't, and neither are his partners. All six of these guys will be involved in the Progressive Gauntlet at Everlasting Epic IV, where they will be opponents.

 

Troy: For tonight, all six need to co-exist in order to get a W heading into the big show.

 

* PROGRESSIVE CHAMPION DEXTER P. WELLINGTON, INFERNUS & DARRIN GILES VS. DEAN NASH, DAMIEN FIELDS & VICTOR SIMON *

Referee:  Billy Vargas

Billy Vargas keeps the two sides separated until calling for the bell. Simon and Giles begin the contest with a lock up. Giles grabs on a side headlock that Simon breaks by shoving him to the ropes. Giles returns and Simon floors him with a shoulder block before hitting the ropes. Giles drops down and Simon jumps over him. Giles then gets up and Simon runs under a leapfrog, but Giles turns around to get a big right hand to the face!

 

Giles gets up and walks into an inverted atomic drop that stands him up as Simon tags out to Nash. The former Progressive Champion gets up to the top rope and soars off, nailing Giles with a flying clothesline! Nash makes a cover for one...two...and Giles kicks out! both men get to their feet and Giles rakes Nash over the eyes before making a quick tag to Infernus.

 

Infernus charges into the ring and barrels into Nash with a big clothesline to ground him. He then jumps up to the middle rope to put Nash way with the HO Down DDT, but Nash sidesteps Infernus'  jump and tags in Fields.

 

Troy: Fields and Infernus in there now.

 

Ferrara: Dex Wellington doesn't appear like he wants in this match yet.

 

Fields rushes in, but falls victim to a quick drop toe hold. Infernus keeps him grounded by floating over into a front facelock. Fields gets up to his knees and then a vertical base, but Infernus drives a knee into his chest before taking him down with a gutwrench suplex. Infernus covers and hooks a leg for 1----2----and Fields kicks out. Wellington demands a tag, but Infernus waves him off and goes back to work to finish Fields off himself.

 

Troy: I think Infernus maybe should have tagged the champ in there.

 

Ferrara: Possibly, but he wants to prove he is a major force in that Gauntlet match, and hitting this Ganso Bomb for the win will do just that.

 

Infernus gets Fields into position to deliver the move, but Fields slips out at its apex and lands on his feet. Without wasting any time, Fields grabs Infernus around the head and drives him down with a lightning quick Diamond Cutter! Fields turns him over and covers for one...two...three!

 

Ferrara: What?!

 

Troy: And just like that, Damien Fields wins it for his team!

 

Ferrara: That just came out of nowhere!

 

Troy: If he can land that on Wellington in the final Gauntlet match, we'll have a new Progressive Champion!

 

Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" plays as the victorious Fields, Nash and Simon exit the ring. Wellington fumes with anger in the ring, irate at Infernus and Giles for costing him the match. The champion grabs his belt and storms away from his partners as we head to out first break of the evening.

* WINNERS VIA PINFALL: DEAN NASH, DAMIEN FIELDS & VICTOR SIMON *

 

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

 

Back from break, we are in the office of PWA owner Bryan Conroy, who is there alongside ORA Champion Romeo, ORA president Helen Summers, and PWA Lt. Commissioner F. Anthony Annetta.

Conroy:  Alright, tonight, we have a mission to carry out.  We all have a duty to fulfill.  Romeo, you have Jaguar at Everlasting Epic, and I have Kerry Cox.  Both matches are of the utmost importance.  If we can manage to both win our respective matches, there will be not a soul in this company that can challenge this union.  We will rule over this company with an iron fist forever.  However, the first step in that is tonight.  We have Jaguar and Cox three-on-two tonight.  The goal tonight is to punish them, to torture them, and to obtain every possible advantage heading into Everlasting Epic.  FAA, that's where you come in.  You are the extra man.  You are the person who will help us carry out this plan.  You are also the only man who is not up to the caliber of everyone else in that ring.  For that, you need to try extra hard not to screw up.  Use your brute force.  Do not attempt to outsmart anyone in there.  Just follow our lead and all will be well.  Do what I say, do what Romeo says, and we will be victorious.  Is everyone with me?

The people in the room nod their collective heads.

 

Conroy:  Good.  This is going to be a magnificent night.

The camera shifts to the Jumbotron, where a video package airs, set to “Victory” by P. Diddy and Notorious BIG.  We are taken to a gym in Atlanta, where we see Showtime Damon Savage vigorously training alongside Evander Holyfield.  We see Showtime working on his strength and exhibiting his superior hand speed, training in a modest gym alongside the former heavyweight champion.  As the video concludes, a graphic appears on the screen:

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --


As we return from break, “Edge of the Earth” by 30 Seconds to Mars hits, and the fans begin booing loudly as Loki makes his way to the ring, alone.  Loki settles himself in the ring as “Piggy Bank” by 50 Cent hits and Renegade makes his way to the ring to a sizeable ovation.  Renegade wastes no time getting to the ring and sprinting inside, prompting the bell to ring as he immediately slugs it out with Loki.

Troy:  Alright, here we go!

Ferrara:  Renegade has quite the score to settle with the Army, so it’ll be interesting to see if he can get a piece of vindication right here.

* RENEGADE VS. LOKI *
Referee: Tom Stevens

The match begins with Renegade pounding away on Loki, staggering him back into the corner.  Renegade unleashes with furious chops, taking his aggression out on one of the three men responsible for his recent struggles.  Renegade whips Loki against the ropes and downs him with a big back body drop as he returns.  Loki gets up again, but Renegade downs him with a hard clothesline.  The fans cheer, and Loki exits the ring, trying to regroup on the outside.  However, Renegade gets a running start and planchas himself over the top, right onto Loki!

Troy:  My God!  Renegade takes a risk and it pays dividends!

Ferrara:  And these fans are loving it!

Renegade gets up and begins pounding away on Loki on the outside, not allowing him to get back into the ring.  However, Loki nails Renegade with a low blow on the outside, and uses that as an opening to turn the match back around to his own favor.  Loki rolls Renegade back into the ring and follows in himself, stomping Renegade with furious boots when he does so.  Loki lifts Renegade up and whips him hard into the corner, following him in with a mighty clothesline.  Renegade staggers forward, and Loki hits him with a big belly-to-belly suplex.  As Renegade struggles to his feet, Loki looks for the Atheist superkick.  Loki springs forth with the move when Renegade rises, but Renegade ducks out of the way, and nails Loki with a kick to the side of the head of his own!  Loki goes down like a ton of bricks, and suddenly, Bishop Cross and Reaper run out from the back, swarming Renegade!  Renegade tries to fight them off, but the referee immediately calls for a disqualification!
* WINNER VIA DISQUALIFICATION: RENEGADE *

Troy:  Get these guys out of here!  This isn’t right!

Ferrara:  Well here comes some help!

GI Jew comes stampeding down the aisle and the fans cheer wildly.  Jew, steel chair in hand, tries to clear the ring, but the 3-on-2 catches up, and the Army of the Damned is in control once again.  Then, suddenly, the lights go out and the fans begin cheering loudly, knowing what is coming by now.  When the lights go back on, Speed Demon is standing in the center of the ring and gets a thunderous ovation!  Demon has a lead pipe in one hand and a crowbar in the other, and fights off the Army with both of his foreign objects.  The Army flees and the lights go off again, and when they go back on, GI Jew and Renegade are the only two left at ringside.  Suddenly, GI Jew grabs a microphone.

Jew:  Speed Demon!  Demon, where are you?  Listen, wherever you are, I know you can hear me.  Every week, you come out here and come to our aid when we’re getting beat down by the Army, and every week, you leave before we have a chance to thank you.  Well, we need your help again.  And this time, we need your help at Everlasting Epic.  We have a six-man tag team match against the Army all ready to go.  We just need a partner.  Please, Demon.  We need you.  We need you to be our partner.  And we need an answer as soon as possible.

With that, Jew drops the mic and “Opium of the People” hits.  Jew and Renegade exit together as the crowd buzzes.

Troy:  Will Speed Demon answer the call?

Ferrara:  I sure hope so.  That would be one hell of an Everlasting Epic six-man!

Troy:  Sure would!  Stick with us, folks, we’ll be right back!

 

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Back from break, we are in Commissioner Kerry Cox’s office, where Cox is with GI Jew and Renegade.

Jew:  Isn’t that good enough Kerry?  We’ve made the attempt, now give us the match!

Cox:  It’s not the intent I’m after here.  You know that.  We need Speed Demon’s name on the dotted line to be your partner at Everlasting Epic, or at the very least, some kind of binding statement that will let me know that he’s coming.  Otherwise, I can’t lead you guys to slaughter.

Renegade:  What if we don’t care?

Cox:  It’s pretty irrelevant.  Either you show me a written agreement from Speed Demon to be your partner, or there is no match.

Jew and Renegade exit the office, angry, headed back to their dressing room.  The camera follows them back to their room as they open the door.  Jew and Renegade stand stupefied as they walk inside.  On their dressing room wall, written in a substance that appears to be blood, is the following:  “The answer is YES.”  Below that, also in the red substance, is the Speed Demon logo.  As soon as it sets in, Jew and Renegade dart out of the dressing room, screaming out Cox’s name.

Muse's "Butterflies and Hurricanes" plays over the speakers and a video package airs.  A graphic appears on the screen reading "Progressive Entertainment Hall of Fame Class of 2005."  The next graphic to appear on the screen reads "Bryan Conroy."  A highlight video of Conroy's CAW, FSW and PWA career plays.  Another graphic then airs, reading "To Be Inducted By: Mike Troha."  The next graphic to air reads "Kerry Cox."  A Cox highlight video, featuring CAW and PWA clips plays, before a graphic appears reading "To Be Inducted By: Scott Hosemann."  Then another graphic airs, reading "And, Honorary Inductee - Allison Kelly."  A video reel plays, showing clips of the late, great three-time Women's Champion in the PWA.  Finally, a graphic reads, "To Be Inducted By: Vulture."  From there, a final graphic appears, reading "Live! Esther Boyer Theater at
Temple University - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - Wednesday, August 17 - PWA Awards Special and Hall of Fame Inductions.  Don't miss it!"  We then take a commercial break.

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Back from break, we are taken ringside to commentators Victor Troy and Paul Ferrara.

Troy:  Folks, this has been an exciting night thus far, and it only figures to get more exciting.  Later tonight, we will see Bryan Conroy and Kerry Cox return to action in a 3-on-2 handicapped match, with Conroy teaming with Romeo and FAA to face Cox and Jaguar.  Not to mention the fact that, coming up next, will be the explosive rematch between Solomon and Scythe!

Ferrara:  I’m really excited about all of this Troy, and also about finding out which special guests to expect at Everlasting Epic!

Troy:  Me too.  But folks, at this time, we’d like to announce two matches signed for next week’s edition of Frequency, when we return to the United States in Philadelphia, at the Wachovia Center, just one day before the 2005 PWA Achievement Awards and Hall of Fame Induction Special.  In mixed tag team action, we will see James Biamonte team with his sister Dee Licious to face Mike Grieco and Women’s Champion Keiko Ishida!

Ferrara:  That should be something else, given all the history there!  And also, in six-man tag team action, it will be the Tag Team Champions Alpha Omega teaming with Jonathan Brett to battle The Miracle Mike Troha, Paul Epton and John Wolfe in a rematch from Meltdown!

Troy:  Speaking of Troha, we’re expected to hear from him a little later tonight and…

Suddenly, Troy is cut off as “Parabola” by TOOL overtakes the speakers and the fans begin booing wildly as the PWA Champion Hollywood Mike Griffin emerges from behind the curtain, setting off explosive pyrotechnics.  Griffin then signals back to the curtain and out walks his manager Justin Schenck, and Greg Tantalus’ ex-girlfriend Michelle, who takes his arm.  Griffin, Schenck and Michelle walk to the ring together, with Griffin taking a microphone before entering the ring.

Troy:  I can’t believe what we’re seeing here.  Michelle has been gone from the PWA for quite some time, but she has chosen quite the time to return.  Just weeks before her ex-boyfriend Greg Tantalus has the biggest match of his life, she returns to align herself with his worst enemy.

Ferrara:  I’m not all that surprised, Troy.  Michelle wants only the worst for Greg after the way he treated her, and I believe she’s here to do all she can to prevent Tantalus from walking away the world champion at Everlasting Epic.

Griffin prepares to speak, and the arena quiets.

Griffin:  Well Tantalus, I said I was going to go for the jugular last week, and I meant it.  I have done exactly that.  The one person you didn’t want back in this company is back, and she is back because I have allowed it.  This woman hates you Greg, hates you in fact even more than I do, and believe it or not, wants to see you win this PWA Championship even less than I do.  Ladies and gentlemen, I give you… Michelle!

Griffin hands the microphone to Michelle and she speaks.

Michelle:  It’s been a long time, Greg.  A long time since
October 14, 2003, in this very province of Ontario, when you laid me out with the Big O and basically left me for dead.  You never called to apologize, you never even attempted any sort of communication with me again.  Well guess what, Greg?  Payback’s a bitch, and this bitch is about to pay you back.  I’m back here in the PWA for one reason and one reason only, and that’s to make sure that you never so much as touch that PWA Championship again.  Not that you have much of a chance against Mike Griffin anyway.  He’s always been much more of a man than you.  Believe me, I know.  Watch your step, Greg.  Everywhere you go, we’ll be there.  And at Everlasting Epic, you don’t have a chance in hell.

Michelle smiles as the fans boo and hands the microphone to Schenck.

Schenck:  Do you see that Tantalus?  Do you see what’s happening here?  The deck is stacked.  You have no chance.  The cream is again rising to the top.  When The Legacy says something is going to happen, it happens.  Scott Hosemann found that out in
Rockefeller Center.  You’re going to find it out at Everlasting Epic.  But you’d be well served to remember the story of Scott Hosemann.  We didn’t need him anymore, so we got rid of him.  Pretty standard stuff.  But he had to keep coming back, keep causing a nuisance.  He wanted a shot at the title, so we gave it to him.  But that night, we didn’t just beat him.  We sent Scott Hosemann out of the PWA forever.  His career is over now, and it ended at the hands of The Legacy.  Greg Tantalus, your fate will be the same.  You had the opportunity to challenge for a different championship, to take a different paths.  But no.  You chose Mike Griffin and the PWA Championship.  Well, we intend to make you pay for that decision.  Michelle is back, and on our side, ready to do whatever she can to help.  You can’t beat Mike Griffin anyway.  But that doesn’t mean we can’t still stack the deck.  You’re overmatched.  You’re outclassed.  And at Everlasting Epic, if you’re not careful, we’ll end your career.

The fans continue to boo as the ring is all smiles, but then “Heaven’s a Lie” by Lacuna Coil hits and the fans begin cheering loudly as Greg Tantalus, microphone in tow, appears at the top of the ramp.

Tantalus:  Well, well.  Look what we have in the ring.  Two pussies and a pussy that half this building has seen up close and personal.  So you think that bringing Michelle back is gonna get to me, huh?  That’s some genius logic there, guys.  Michelle, remember when I laid you out with the Big O about two years ago?  You know why I never called, why I never called to see how you were?  Because I don’t give a shit about you!  I didn’t then and I don’t now!  You’re a slut, Michelle!  A filthy, rotten slut!  I knew you were fooling around on me then, and I’ve heard what you’ve been up to since.  You don’t mean a damn thing to me, and when I get the opportunity, I’ll take you down with the Big O again.  And
Griffin, Schenck, you can talk all you want about me being overmatched, and about how I can’t beat you.  It doesn’t work anymore.  You’re not in my head.  You can attack me from behind, do whatever you want, I don’t care.  But on August 20 at Everlasting Epic, I WILL take you down and win the PWA Championship!  None of you scare me!  All three of you, come down to the ring next week.  I just got out of Commissioner Cox’s office, and he informed me that next week, it’s gonna be Greg Tantalus and Jaguar against Mike Griffin and Romeo in a tag team main event.  Justin, Michelle, I invite you down to the ring next week, so you can see a preview of Everlasting Epic.  A preview of your downfall.

With that, Tantalus tosses the mic to the ground and “Heaven’s a Lie” hits as he stares down the three individuals in the ring, who glare back at him with looks of hatred as we take a commercial break.
