LEGACY PRO WRESTLING: ACTION PACKED #9
8/9/2012
Oklahoma City, OK
Scott Stevens (5-3) vs. Mark Devereaux (0-0)
Henson: Is it time?
Ash: Time for…?
Henson: Scott Stevens you dolt!
Ash: Oh, then yeah I guess it is.
Henson: Yes! With Solex leaving, Stevens is the only shining light of hope we have left.
The lights in the arena go pitch black, as red lasers and spotlights light up the area. The video screen lights up and flashes across the screen, "Nothing survives my sting!" The crowd starts booing as Dave Mustaine's voice echoes throughout the arena, "I am the Scorpion, whoa!" The jeering intensifies as a mash-up of "I Stand Alone" and "Amazing" hits the speakers, drawing out the former Legacy Pro Wrestling champion. Walking down the aisle, he talks trash the entire way while raising a fist at a few of the more vocal bashers. As he finally gets to the ring, he climbs the nearest turnbuckle and stares down at the crown, an icy glare and the throat slash gesture his only actions as he drops to the mat.
Henson: The future dual champion in LPW!
Ash: I think both you and Stevens are overlooking a very game Mark Devereaux.
Henson: Did you say gay?
Ash: Real mature…
"Epic" by Faith No More begins to echo throughout the entire building. Fans begin stomping on the ground to the bass drum and slapping the side of the guard rails along to the snare drum. All the while chanting loudly and proudly, WAR-RI-OR along to the kick-snare beat of the music. Shortly after the start of the music and crowd participation, out comes Mark Devereaux. He lightly jogs out, stopping at the top of the ramp. Devereaux puts his hand up to his brow and motions that he is looking over the entire arena. He then pounds his right fist on his chest and points to the crowd and starts walking down the ramp. With every other step he is reaching to slap the hands of the children and adults in the live audience. He climbs the ring steps to enter the ring. Once inside he climbs the turnbuckle facing the camera, points to the crowd, points to his heart, and then points to the ring. Finally raising his hands in the air for an explosive reaction from the crowd. He climbs down and begins stretching his arms by rotating them as the music fades.
Ash: A lot of energy from Mark Devereaux, you can tell he is ready to grab hold of this opportunity.
Henson: Whatever you say, he’ll be running into a Texas sized buzzsaw tonight.
Roth: The following match is the co-Main Event of the evening and is schedule for one fall with the winner advancing in the Reign Supreme Consolation Tournament. First, fighting out of Houston, Texas…the former LPW Champion…SCOTT STEVENS!
And his opponent, fighting out of Dearborn, Michigan…MARK DEVEREAUX!
Ash: Time to find out what the LPW rookie has to offer. We’ve already seen one rookie come out victorious.
Henson: Not a chance, Scott Stevens is THE champion in LPW. You think he would lose to a guy like this?
Ash: I think you need to have your assistant double check some things for you, we only have an interim Champion and I can promise you Scott Stevens doesn’t look anything like her.
The bell rings. Mark Devereaux attacks first with a European uppercut. Devereaux closes in but is taken to the canvas by double leg takedown from Scott Stevens. Stevens attacks from guard but is quickly pushed away by Devereaux. Both men scramble to their feet but it’s Devereaux who takes the advantage. Mark charges in at Scott and delivers a knee to the gut of his opponent. Devereaux stays on the attack by grabbing his opponent in an arm wringer but is forced to release the hold after Scott Stevens stomps on his foot.
Henson: Beautiful foot stomp by Stevens! Come on Ash, do your job.
Ash: It was definitely a foot stomp, but it seemed rather ordinary to me.
Henson: Fool, nothing Scott Stevens does is ordinary!
Stevens capitalizes by putting a boot to the gut of Devereaux. He quickly follows up a with a single leg takedown into a knee bar. Stevens twists at the joint, but Devereaux won’t let him do much damage as he drives his free foot into the side of Scott several times. Stevens has no choice but to release the hold. Again the men scramble to their feet, this time both meeting each other in the center of the ring at the same time. Scott Stevens greets Mark with knife-edge chop and is in turn given a European uppercut. Stevens retaliates with another chop and the favor is returned with another uppercut. Stevens comes back at him and feints another chop before putting a finger in his opponent’s eye. Stevens immediately follows up with an overhead belly to belly suplex. Scott refuses to waste time, going right back for his opponent. He picks Mark up from behind and is caught off guard by a standing switch, putting Devereaux behind Stevens. With a lighting quick twitch of the hips Stevens is flying backwards with a half nelson suplex that drops him directly on the top of his head. Stevens’ body goes limp and Devereaux rolls an arm on top of him.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOOT ON THE ROPE!
Henson: Disqualification! Illegal martinete!
Ash: First, I’m amazed you actually know what that is. Second, we aren’t in Mexico. Regardless, this doesn’t look good for Stevens.
Stevens is clutching his neck on the ground, but is fortunately moving around. Devereaux picks up Stevens and preps the Border Check. Just before he can complete the move, Stevens delivers a northern lights suplex. The impact seems to do as much damage to Stevens as it does to Devereaux as he isn’t able to bridge the pin and is immediately back to clutching at his neck. Somehow he manages to get back up to his feet, but has to prop himself up in the corner as he watches Mark regain his footing. SPEAR! Stevens drives his shoulder right through his opponent, but again appears to suffer from the impact.There is no quit in Stevens, despite the potential injury, as he again manages to pull himself up. He begins picking Devereaux up off the mat, trash talking the entire time. He gets Mark back up to his feet and slaps him in the face once and goes to slap him again when Devereaux reverses. Hammerlock, leg trip…BORDER CHECK! Stevens again lands directly on his neck and Devereaux capitalizes with a pin.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
NO! KICKOUT!
Henson: Heart of a champion! Despite having seven broken vertebrae and a bulging disc, he fights on!
Ash: I’m pretty sure that the Scorpion just has a stinger…
Henson: What do you think you are some kind of doctor!? I know eight broken vertebrae when I see them!
Ash: Is it seven or eight?
Henson: Shut up!
Devereaux is shocked that Stevens kicked out, but keeps to the task at hand. He grabs hold of Stevens, looking to lock in the Motor City Clutch. Stevens fights off the best he can but he can’t keep the hold from getting locked in. No! Somehow managed to get to his knees before the lock was fully applied, alleviating some of the pressure. Through pure instinct or determination Stevens manages to get to his feet and Devereaux has no choice but to follow, although he never releases his grasp. That is until Stevens manages to lift him up with a belly to back suplex. The two men crash on the canvas and lay motionless for a few moments. Somehow they get back to their feet and it is Stevens who takes charge, putting a boot to the gut of Devereaux. TOXIC STING! No! Devereaux keeps Stevens upright. DEVEREAUX DRIVER!! Here comes the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Henson: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ash: Oh my god! What an upset!
Henson: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Roth: The winner of this match via pinfall and advancing to the semi-finals…MARK DEVEREAUX!
Stevens lays face down on the canvas as Mark Devereaux erupts to his feet celebrating his victory. The fans go crazy for him as he climbs the corners.
HOW's Bottomline
Interview w/ Francis James
The camera cuts backstage to LPW Webmaster and reporter, David Flores. He is standing next to the official proxy for the anonymous LPW co-owner, Francis James.
Flores: Mr. James thank you for joining me tonight.
James: Anytime David.
Flores: Right, so the question on everyone’s mind right now is how Steve Solex leaving will impact Reign Supreme on August 25th?
James: Having spoken with both co-owners, it was decided that nothing would change. So long as neither Mike Best or Steve Solex is under LPW contract, neither man will be eligible to receive a shot at the LPW Championship
Flores: Speaking of championships, any word on what the new title to replace the Internet Championship will be, and will it go to the winner of the consolation tournament?
James: To answer the latter, yes the winner of that particular tournament will be the first champion with this new title. As for the title itself, there are still negotiations to take place with the co-owners, but I am told that we will announce the title at Reign Supreme.
Flores: Excellent. If I may back track a little. With Steve Solex leaving for High Octane, Mark Devereaux working for both LPW and TRUE, and Scot Stevens working for us, TRUE, and working a HOW PPV, are there any concerns that more wrestlers will leave?
James: I’m not concerned, and based on the discussions I’ve had with both co-owners, neither are they. Our product will speak for itself. If a worker doesn’t want to be here, they are free to leave.
Flores: How did the match between LPW’s Scott Stevens and HOW’s Chance Von Crank come to be?
James: Lots of back and forth talks. While Mr. Hardt and my employer don’t see eye to eye on many things, they both want what is best for the company and for business. This made great sense for Legacy Pro as it will bring more eyes to us.
Flores: One last question. When will we find out who the mysterious co-owner is?
James: Soon.
Flores: Thank you for your time Mr. James.
The scene fades out.
