Alcatraz PrisonOct 26th 2013 / Sat 11:00PM
Teaser:
...
Results:
The High Octane Television logo gives way to the HOW logo and then ultimately the Rumble at the Rock promotional banner where it then slowly fades into darkness. “Born to Rise” by the Redlight Kings begins to play as the show begins with a wide shot of Alcatraz Island. It is clear that the camera is on the shore and the image of the infamous prison at night is one ominous sight.
We are able to see the outline of the prison courtesy of several outside lines on the prison grounds being on but suddenly the picture goes all black as the lights are extinguished. The feed then goes black.
Stays black.
Suddenly the sound of a door creaking is accompanied by the image of the entrance to the prison being slowly opened by an unknown man.
As we continue on with the point of view entry into the prison we walk into complete darkness and the silence is almost deafening.
The POV continues thru what the prison and we occasionally get glimpses of the cells as the camera pans up and left and right as it continues to make its way into the belly of the prison.
Alcatraz was shut down to any public tour for the last two weeks and in that short amount of time the prison appears to almost gone back in time as you can feel that the prison is alive almost. Off camera unrecognizable sounds can be heard and words seem to be heard thru strained ears trying to decipher whispers from a time long ago.
Suddenly the camera stops and it is focused straight ahead where a figure can be seen standing. In the darkness there are no features to be seen but the silhouette is unmistakable.
Lee Best.
The sound of his footsteps are the only the sounds that can be heard now as he approaches the camera.
Within a few feet of the camera we finally see the face of the God of HOW…..and he is smiling.
He smirks and then slowly pulls of the eye patch that is covering his eye from the Bottom Line he suffered at the hands of HOW Hall of Famer Chris Kostoff at War Games.
Lee reaches his arms out and snaps the camera towards him so we all get a great view of the damaged eye socket where his eye once lay.
He violently pushes it back and smirks into the camera.
“Welcome to the show…..I got a surprise for you”
With that Lee puts the eye patch back on and spins on his heels and walks back into the darkness.
“Follow me…..follow me directly into hell”
As with all High Octane cameramen he has no choice and does what he is told. But the way the camera is shaking as it moves forward after the God of HOW it is apparent that neither the cameraman nor anyone viewing on HOTv has any idea what is going to happen tonight or what Lee has in store for all of High Octane.
That is never a good thing.
The cameraman quickly catches up to Lee as we enter another room where several people are flying around the room in a panicked state. This is obviously the control room for the live telecast and a few of the people catch glimpses of themselves on huge monitors that have been set up.
As the camera pans around the room we get the full scope of the coverage as literally every inch of the prison appears to be covered. The camera stops on one particular monitor and we see why. It is the feed for the Solitary Confinement wing of the prison. There are several PIP on the monitor, each one showing one of the participants in tonight’s World Title Match.
“On me douchebag…on me”
The camera quickly jerks to the left and we see Lee Best standing behind the two Hall of Fame announcers, Joe Hoffman and Big Buff Benny Newell.
Lee has a hand on a shoulder of each man and is once again showcasing his infamous smirk.
“Tonight is a very important night and I wanted to show everyone that is watching on HOTv just exactly how much in control I am. A sense or order has been restored here in High Octane Wrestling and everything that happens tonight has meticulously been planned and will happen for a very specific reason. My boys Joe and Benny will be calling the action and trust me when I say that they have no fucking clue what the hell is going to happen as well….right boys?”
Both Joe and Benny nod their heads in agreement. Benny taking it an extra step by placing his hand over the hand of Lee’s on his shoulder and smiling up at his boss. Even with one eye, Lee is able to stare Benny’s hand off of his own and Newell quickly takes a swig out of his official High Octane Flask as Lee continues.
“Now I know everyone wanted to see myself and Kostoff go toe to toe to open the show. I get that seeing that old piece of shit rolling around in the dirt in the Prison Yard is somehow appealing to all you fuckers but did you honestly think that I would actually partake in a match that could by some piece of luck would end in my ultimate demise….so soon after finally returning??”
Lee scoffs and looks down at his announcers to see that they are agreeing….and with a strong squeeze of each shoulder both men quickly nod their heads in agreement.
“Instead tonight we will open with a special surprise for the viewers. But before we get to that let me just say that for all those that bought the HOTv package on their Satellite provider JUST to see Kostoff whip my ass…well I want your money and will not be refunding it and with that in mind I am throwing the old man a bone…..show them you fucking monkeys.”
Lee points to a large 90” TV monitor that is gracing the opposite wall of the room. This is obviously the “main” monitor that will show the live feed that is being presented to all those watching on HOTv.
With that the feed cuts away from the room and the viewers are now watching a live feed of inside a cell. We see a large man pacing back and forth inside of the small cell. The man then pauses and looks up at the camera and flips it off.
Chris Kostoff is not happy.
The feed then cuts away to show that the cell that Kostoff is in is part of the Solitary wing.
We quickly cut back to the control room and this time all the focus is on Lee.
“That is right. Kostoff is now part of the World Title match. Remember…everything that is happening tonight is happening for a reason. Remember that.”
Lee pauses and looks at his watch.
“Well it is almost time folks. This broadcast will literally be a one match show. You will see Professor Keller try to retain the coveted World Title and by the looks of the latest results on the HOWrestling dot com poll it appears NO ONE believes he will retain. Well here is a little spoiler for you….I guarantee he wont. That ungrateful piece of shit is going to learn to kneel before me with pride. Tonight that motherfucker will learn what happens when you try to get famous by talking shit about the God of HOW. In the infamous words of Doc Holiday……I will be your huckleberry.”
Lee takes off his jacket and puts it over the head of Joe as he motions for the cameraman to follow him.
“It is time for some #970000 colored blood to grace the floor and walls of this prison. Tonight all that is right with High Octane Wrestling will be restored. Tonight I right the ship. TONIGHT IS MINE!!!!”
With that the live feed goes black.
The feed is still dark until a flashlight beam lets the viewer’s know that we are still live.
“Flip on the fucking light on the camera idiot”
The sound of Lee giving orders just sounds right and the cameraman obliges and with the light from the camera we see that Lee is walking straight ahead of the camera leading the way but because of this we are only catching glimpses of the environment. Glimpses that are already obscured by the total lack of light in the prison.
“You know I had the lights shut off earlier today because I want these assholes BLIND when they come out of those cells. There is going to be a lot of shit going on early in this match and because I am a cheating bastard I made sure that the order of entry for the match……well let’s just say that it favors a few people.”
Lee stops and the sound of dozens of footsteps can be heard approaching from behind the camera.
“Keep straight ahead douchebag. Do not worry about that which goes bump in the night”
The sound of keys jingling can be heard and we see two guards come into the picture and open up what was obviously a locked door.
“This way everyone…this way. Solitary is just a little farther down.”
The camera is visibly shaking as Lee is leading what sounds like an army of men down the hallway.
“The footsteps you are hearing are guards. Because of the nature of this match I need a sense of order if you will. John Sektor is the only person that I trust in this match and I am going to make sure that he has protection at all times. Is that fair? Of course not. Professor Keller has turned Sektor into an afterthought. He has relegated Sektor’s moustache to being more over than Sektor. His FUCKING MOUSTACHE?? What is he…Bob fucking Jared?”
Lee can be seen shaking his head as he continues to lead the men towards the Solitary wing.
“You see the Sektor I know was known for his…well you know…wrestling? He was a man that was on the cusp of gaining entry into the Hall of Fame. Now? He is a fucking walking cartoon. Keller is a smart motherfucker. There is no doubt in my mind that it was his plan to make John a non-factor with all this ProDouchebag bullshit.”
Lee stops and turns towards the camera.
“What did Keller get out of it? The World Title. What did John get? Second place..the ICON Title. Hey the ICON Title is more coveted than most other companies World Titles…..but…ITS. NOT. THE. WORLD. TITLE.”
Lee pauses for the cause and then slowly turns back around and continues to lead everyone down the hall. Finally after a few more minutes he stops and he steps to the side so the camera can focus in on the door that leads into the Solitary wing of the prison.
“Let’s do this shit.”
With that one of the guards enters the picture and unlocks the door leading into the wing. Lee turns and motions for only the cameraman to follow him.
“I will need the rest of you in a minute. For now..just you.”
With that Lee leads the cameraman into the Solitary wing to officially begin the action.
As the door shuts behind Lee the sound of the prisoners scuffling to their feet to put their ears to the door can be heard. There is still only the light from the camera and the tension is palpable.
“Rise and shine douchebags….rise and shine.”
Lee pauses and listens. There are no replies. He smiles knowing he has their full attention.
“Ladies it is time for the World Title Match and as I am sure you are putting two and two together you are realizing that not only did Kostoff NOT kill me….it’s quite the opposite. He is among you. Literally. The Hall of Fame dicksucker is in the World Title match and he is mad…..my bad on that one.”
Lee chuckles to himself as continues…
“I want to let you all know that there is going to be a little change to the rules of the match. It is still going to be elimination obviously but there will be not be any five minute intervals. Instead when I leave and shut that door behind me…well your doors will open. There will be ten minutes for whatever is going to happen to happen. After ten minutes the door to this wing will open and chaos will reign supreme. If you cannot figure it out the ten minutes is the time I will need to go get into position to watch the violence unfold.”
Lee walks slowly up to the door that he knows holds a certain individual.
“Hold that title close Keller. Press it close to your still beating heart. You waited a full year to win that precious title and I am going to take it away from you tonight….with you never getting another shot at it. Tonight you will choke on italic shaped violence…..tonight you will learn the word respect.”
Lee walks away from the door and back to the middle of the corridor.
“Listen up everyone. For months you have gotten away with half assing it. Let’s face it some of you should not even be in this fucking match. But because Scotty ran the roster into the ground you are here only because you are a warm body. Take advantage of this opportunity. It will not come again for some of you for a very long time…if ever. Tonight is your chance to prove me and the whole High Octane Television viewing audience wrong. Prove to us that you are not a joke. Prove to us that you belong with the best of the best. Prove to your fucking self that you belong here…in this wing…in this match….in this moment.”
Lee again pauses for the cause before wrapping it up.
“In a few seconds I am going to walk out of this wing and the match will begin. This match means EVERYTHING to some but SOMETHING to everyone. Do not waste this opportunity. I cannot say that enough.”
Lee takes a deep breath and turns towards the door. He reaches it and knocks on it signaling the guard on the other side to open it up. We hear the lock being turned and the door swings open. Lee takes one step out but then stops and turns back towards the wing.
“Ya…one more thing. Whoever eliminates Keller from this match will get $100,000 and a spot in the Best Alliance if they choose so.”
With a smile, Lee turns and exits the wing leaving the cameraman alone in the wing.
The camera, now shaking more than ever before, turns back towards the action and we can hear the cameraman audibly sigh as he prepares to film the match.
Suddenly one door pops open and after a few moments we see who was in the cell.
The World Champion…Professor Keller.
He slowly exits the cell and with only the light from the camera we see that he is wearing the World Title around his waist.
The sound of the wing door opening up is heard and the cameraman turns to see all the guards Lee was referring to earlier enter the fray.
One of them walks up to Keller and rips the World Title off of him and quickly exits the wing and shuts the door behind him…leaving only Keller, the cameraman, and all the guards behind him.
The sound of the door being locked is heard and the focus returns to Keller as we see him trying to get his eyes to adjust to the darkness.
Suddenly the cameraman is pushed to the side and the guards rush towards Keller.
The wing is lit up as a stream of fire hits Keller in the face and the World Champion falls to the ground screaming in pain. The guards form a circle around Keller as three of the guards take off their hats and “guard” jackets.
We cannot make out who these three guards are but the one who just spit the fireball at Keller is on all fours…trying to look at the damage he caused as Keller rolls around in pain.
Suddenly one of the three guards grabs Keller and locks in a chickenwing, holding the World Champion in place as the third and final guard not in the circle comes into focus.
He has a belt of his own…and he is taking it off.
He gets in the face of Keller and smiles back at the camera revealing who he and the other two are and for the first time tonight we hear the voice of Joe Hoffman.
Joe Hoffman: What?? That’s Hugo Strange..the WARPED CHAMPION??!!!
The cameraman is grabbed and we see Mr. Rottentreats smile into the camera…obviously revealing himself to be the one that spit the fireball.
Mr. Rottentreats forces the cameraman to zoom in on the face of Keller and we finally see who the third man is….Seth Moore.
Joe Hoffman: All three of these men are from WARPED Wrestling…what the hell is going on here?
The cameraman is pushed back and as he regains his balance we watch as the three Warped wrestlers all get to their feet and begin to pummel the High Octane Wrestling World Champion.
Joe Hoffman: This is crazy…..WARPED is beating up our World Champion before the rest of the competitors are even released!
Benny Newell: I think the correct phrase is softening him up. Remember what Lee said…everything is happening for a reason you idiot.
The WARPED wrestlers continue to pummel Keller and their beating appears to mercifully end as Rottentreats and Moore are seen holding Keller up just so Strange can deliver a sickening shot to the head with the WARPED Championship.
Keller is out cold on the concrete as the WARPED guys pat each other on the back and head towards the exit.
As the door shuts and locks behind them we hear another door being opened inside of the wing and the cameraman and the guards turn towards it and we see the LSD Champion Scott Stevens come rushing out of his cell and into the corridor swinging madly.
His eyes have not yet adjusted as the light from the camera is blinding him as three more guards step out of formation and attack the LSD Champion with a barrage of blows. We see that one man is wearing a pair of barbed wire gloves and with each blow pieces of Steven’s skin and #970000 colored prison jumpsuit are torn away.
We then see a baseball bat come crashing down on the back of Stevens and the LSD Champion falls face down to the concrete. Two of the guards then hold Stevens limp body up as we see the third line up and bring his fist to the forehead of Stevens with a sickening thud as we see that a heavy chain has been balled up in his fist.
They let go of Stevens and the man falls to the ground as the guards turn towards the camera.
Joe Hoffman: What is going on here!!! I am being told that these three men are Jacob Mephisto, Dan Stein and the SHOOT Sin City Champion Valentine Lionheart….THESE ARE SHOOT PROJECT WRESTLERS!!
The SHOOT members are smiling as they look down at the fallen HOW LSD Champion.
Joe Hoffman: Another HOW Champion has fallen victim to an outside federation. Where is Lee??
As if on cue we hear Lee’s voice come out over the loud speaker.
“Thank you gentlemen. Please tell your bosses that the check is in the mail and if you would like you can come watch the rest of the show with me and the WARPED guys in my …um…private suite.”
The SHOOT guys look down at Stevens one final time and the camera follows their gaze and we see Stevens is busted wide open.
The three SHOOT guys exit the wing and we get a sense of déjà vu as the door shuts and locks the wing and a cell door opens.
The remaining guards turn towards the door and we see Chris Kostoff come slowly walking out. There is an air of confidence surrounding the HOW Hall of Famer as everyone who is watching knows….
He is ready to fight.
The cameraman points the camera at Kostoff and we see the big man has his eyes closed. He has his hands up and is waiting for the onslaught and sure enough it comes.
This time its only two guards who attack but for good reason. They both pull out what appears to be guns and fire.
Four prods enter the chest of the HOW Hall of Famer as electricity flows thru the big mans body, causing him to fall to his knees. He continues to convulse as the men refuse to release the trigger on the stun guns.
Finally and mercifully they do and Kostoff falls to his back with a heavy thud.
Joe Hoffman: Who is this now? Def-
Benny Newell: DO NOT EVEN SAY THAT WORD YOU IDIOT.
Before Benny can continue the two guards turn towards the camera and reveal themselves….
Joe Hoffman: That is Adam Stryker…the PWX Hybrid Champion and Troy Stone the PWX World Champion!!!
Benny Newell: Where the fuck is the penguin??
Joe Hoffman: Wow….Lee struck a deal with PWX? You know Pariah cannot be running PWX anymore if that is the case…who is in charge?
Both announcers scramble for answers as the live feed shows the two men struggle to pick up the helpless Kostoff and as they let go he is on his feet just long enough for Stone to nail Kostoff with his Cloud Nine Soulless Mayhem facebuster finisher.
Benny Newell: Cloud Nine Soul….ah fuck it. He knocked the fucker out and now Kostoff is out cold alongside Keller and Stevens. Great start to this HOW World Title match…no?
Joe is for once speechless as the PWX men slowly exit the wing and possibly for the final time we hear the door close behind them and lock as we see only two guards remaining.
Both of them turn their attention to the cell door that just popped open and we see Dick Fury makes his way out.
Joe Hoffman: Well this is certainly one way to make your HOW debut.
Dick Fury comes racing out of his cell….
……and is met with a superkick right to the chin sending him into the arms of the other guard who immediately executes a perfect bridging German Suplex.
The other guard who executed the superkick quickly gets on the ground and counts out a three count and the two guards can be heard laughing as they help each other up.
Joe Hoffman: Well I don’t know any prison guards who execute those moves..what company are these guys with?
Benny Newell: I am guessing ….who gives a fuck? They just kicked a dick in the chin. A DICK…JOE…A DICK.
Joe can only shake his head at Benny as the live feed follows the two remaining guards as go around the room and literally proceed to lift Keller, Kostoff, and Stevens one by one and execute perfect double belly to belly suplexs on the men. Each time the sound of a head and back of the HOW wrestlers hitting the cold concrete elicits audible responses from the remaining locked up HOW superstars.
The camera focuses in on the two guards who walk up to the camera and reveal themselves.
Joe Hoffman: Seth Iser and Nocturnal from New Edge Wrestling??!!
Benny Newell: Unstable
Joe Hoffman: I would say they are…I mean what is going…
Benny Newell: That is their tag name Joe…Unstable. They got that whore of a valet Emily Koresh. Yank bank material.
As the camera focuses in on the men as they leave the wing and the door shuts there is nothing but silence.
The cameraman turns and we see the carnage that was caused by the WARPED, SHOOT, PWX and NEW wrestlers.
Joe Hoffman: To everyone that paid for this show I apologize. It is apparently clear that you picked the wrong day to upgrade your satellite package to include HOTv because you are not seeing a HOW Television show…you are seeing a complete takeover.
Benny Newell: Wrong numnuts…you are seeing Lee make an example of these idiots.
Joe Hoffman: Whatever it is…it is wrong.
Suddenly we hear Lee’s voice come over the PA system again.
“Folks that concludes the introduction of the newest members of the High Octane Television family…..now that’s get to that World Title match huh? OPEN EVERY MOTHERFUCKING CELL AND LET THERE BE LIGHT!!!”
With that the doors for each cell pop open and all the lights in the wing come on and slowly each wrestler makes their way out and we see that Lee’s intended impact is realized as each person is literally blinded by the light.
Benny Newell: Great song..
Joe Hoffman: Huh?
Benny Newell: Blinded by the light….wrapped up like a douche in the middle of the night..
Joe Hoffman: WHAT???
Benny Newell: Never mind….great tune tho…great tune.
There is a literal feeling of a calm before the storm as we see Tara Michaels, Maximillian Kael, David Black, Christopher Diamond, Scottywood and a mace carrying Kirsta Lewis all enter the corridor.
“Fuck the ten minutes…..open the door!!”
With that the door to Solitary Confinement is unlocked and the World Title match is officially underway.
Everyone pauses and looks at Kirsta who’s mace is literally like a giant big African elephant in the room. Each wrestler looks worse for wear in their prison jumpsuits after spending over a week and a half literally in a prison cell….but being freed…well you can tell that whatever issues they were having before this moment are now in the rearview mirror as everyone is focused in on one thing and one thing only.
Kirsta’s Mace.
Benny Newell: That is one big ass fucking dildo. I mean I knew she could take a pounding…but I mean c’mon!!
Joe Hoffman: Uh…Benny..thats a Mace. Like from medieval times….
Benny Newell: Uh Joe…I know a Magic Stick when I see one….thats another great tune.
Joe Hoffman: Are you high?
Benny Newell: Oh life my friend…on life.
All focus returns to Solitary and everyone rushes at Kirsta……but she is able to get a shot in on one person before everyone takes her to the ground.
The ball of the mace literally knocks Tara off her feet as the force of the object hitting her shoulder sends her flying, ripping skin away in the process.
Black is able to get Kirsta to drop the mace by slamming her hand hard against the concrete. Black quickly jumps to his feet and its now he who holds the weapon but not for long as everyone rushes at him…..everyone but Max.
Max slowly covers Tara and we see HOW senior referee Matt Boettcher, who was standing at the doorway watching, rush into the wing and slide into position to make the count.
1…..
2…..
KICKOUT by Tara.
Max is shocked as he looks down at Tara…but then he smiles. But his smile is met with a knee to the balls and Max slumps to the side as Tara pushes him off her.
She slowly gets to her feet and leans up against the wall and watches as she turns to see everyone trying to wrestle the mace away from the former World Champion and self-proclaimed greatest LSD Champions hands.
Suddenly the door to Tara’s right opens up and out walks John Sektor. Tara is shocked at first to see him as he did not initially exit his cell when they were popped open.
The two exchange a look before she swings hard at Sektor but she is too late as the ICON Champion nails her in the throat with the edge of his IPAD that he during his time in solitary.
“Just upgraded the iOS too bitch.”
With that he swings and smacks Tara across the face with the IPAD knocking her out cold. Before Sektor can turn and cover Tara he is grabbed from behind and he turns to see Max Kael staring at him.
Benny Newell: Why don’t those two just pin Stevens, Keller, Kostoff and Dick….pin a dick….greatness.
Joe Hoffman: Well lets be honest. All attention went directly to Kirsta and the mace. You cannot blame them for literally missing the opportunity to get some really impactful pinfalls right out the SHOOT.
Benny Newell: Why to emphasis on SHOOT. Lee be proud.
Joe Hoffman: Focus Benny…Focus. This is not some WARPED type of commentary.
Benny Newell: Company man..loving it.
Back inside the solitary wing Scottywood has gained control of the mace and is swinging it madly at anyone and everyone.
Everyone is scattering and we see Kirsta, Diamond and Black literally exit the Solitary wing and enter the hallway that leads to general population.
The HOTv feed stays in solitary however as we Scottywood stalking towards Max and Sektor and he swings the mace again and the force of the blow is true as it nails Max in the middle of his back, sending the HOW Hall of Famer to his knees.
Sektor looks at Scotty with crazed eyes and instead of going after Scotty he nails Max with a right hand to the jaw and Scotty pushes down on the back of Max to pull the mace out as blood begins to pour on the concrete.
Scotty and Sektor are now eye to eye as the two are literally the last two standing in the Solitary wing.
Sektor points down at Max and Tara and Scotty nods and the two make the covers….
Sektor pinning Tara….
1…..
Scotty pinning Max….
2…..
3!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Maximillian Kael and Tara Michaels have been eliminated!!
Benny Newell: Hey that is Bryan McVay’s gig.
Joe can only shrug as we see that both Scotty and Sektor are scrambling to cover the people who were attacked earlier on by the rival companies.
Scotty gets to Dick Fury and covers while Sektor scrambles to Stevens.
1……………….
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Dick Fury and Scott Stevens have been eliminated!!!!!!
Benny Newell: WAIT…YOU FUCKED UP JOE!!
And Benny is right as Boettcher is signaling that Stevens kicked out just in time. Boettcher can be seen talking into a mic on his shirt asking for help as he is having a hard time reffing all this action in one section of the prison.
Sektor is seen arguing with Boettcher as Scotty scrambles over to Kostoff and covers the big man but just as he is about to he notices Kostoff is smiling up at him.
Scotty jumps up to his feet…grabs the mace..and hustles towards the door and exits the wing… but suddenly we see an arm come into the picture and swings a fist upwards, catching him on the bottom of the chin with follow through. Scotty launches about two feet into the air and lands hard onto his back. Dazed and confused he lies on the back staring up at the man who delivered the devastating uppercut. Lee motherfucking Best!
“Stiches for my bitches”
Lee smiles as he screams at the guards to grab Sektor.
They run into the wing and grab the ICON Champion by both arms and drag him out of the wing and when he sees Lee he just smiles.
“Grab the eliminated fuckers and lock this fucker down.”
The guards grab everyone that has been eliminated and they shut the door and lock it and we see Kostoff, Keller and Stevens as the only people remaining in the wing as each are beginning to stir.
Lee motions towards Scottywood and Sektor smiles and quickly covers the knocked out Hall of Famer.
A hustling Joel Hortega, HOW’s resident junior ref, gets into position and makes the count.
1…………..
2………………
3!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Scottywood has been eliminated!!!
Benny Newell: I guess he will be Ballin on a Budget from now on…man that’s a great tune as well.
The guards lead Scottywood out of the corridor as Lee and Sektor walk slowly away leaving Solitary behind.
The feed then switches to what appears to be the kitchen area of Alcatraz where we see Kirsta Lewis, Christopher Diamond and David Black in the middle of a chaotic scene as the three have been using literally everything that they can as a weapon.
Benny Newell: Oh this is bad for Kirsta…..the kitchen is not her strong suit..and what I mean is that the bitch sucks a lot of dick because she cannot cook….feel me Mr. Hoffman?
Joe ignores Benny as we see that Black has turned on the deep fryer and has trying desperately to push Diamond’s head into it……that is until Kirsta nails Black in the back of the head with a frying pan.
Diamond turns to thank Kirsta but he is met with a shot across the face as well. Kirsta looks around but sees no ref.
Kirsta: You got to be kidding me..where the hell is the refs!!!
“Um….right here?”
Nigel Lette appears from the back of the room. With the lights off you just couldn’t see the man.
Kirsta: Sorry Nig…
Nigel holds up his hands and motions for her to stop which she obliges and then she proceeds to quickly cover both men.
1………………………..
2………………………..
Both men kick out just in time. Kirsta obviously cost herself two eliminations by looking for a ref that was clearly already in the area.
Benny Newell: Just proves my point that Kirsta is a racist bitch who can only tell if a person is black or white by how much real estate that take up in her vagina..and by vagina I mean pussy Joe. And by pussy I mean her fucking black hole Joe….BLACK hole.
Joe Hoffman: I got it Benny…I got it.
Kirsta pounds the concrete in disgust and begins looking around for weapons.
Benny Newell: If the bitch knew her way around a kitchen she would go get a fucking knife already.
Kirsta finally sees something suitable and sees a blender. She plugs it in and turns it on and picks up Diamond and bounces his head off the countertop before proceeding to place his head into the industrial sized blender.
Diamond’s hot visor begins to be chopped away by the blender as Kirsta continues to push his head further down into the machine and after a few seconds the visor is no more and now he is within a few inches of losing his nose as the blender catches strands of his hair.
In a desperation move Diamond swings his leg back and kicks Kirsta square in her lady parts. Kirsta goes down in a heap and Diamond rips the blender out of the socket and tosses it across the room…relieved that nothing more was done damage wise to himself.
But this is HOW and he let his guard down for two seconds too long as out of the corner of his eye he sees something moving toward him and he is barely able to recognize the microwave coming at his head.
He is unable to duck as David Black drives the microwave into the side of Diamond’s head. Frantically Black turns towards Krista and Irish whips her onto the stove and looks up and sees a pan hanging and grabs it and swings it down in one motion across the face of Kirsta knocking her out cold while lying on the open range stove.
Smiling, Black turns all the knobs to HIGH HEAT and then turns back towards Diamond just as we cut back to the Solitary wing where something big just went down.
We see Professor Keller and Scott Stevens literally lying on top of Kostoff with Boettcher about to make the count.
The feed from HOTv goes into split screen as we see Black covering Diamond in the kitchen, and Keller and Stevens covering Kostoff in Solitary…
1……………….
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Christopher Diamond and Kostoff have been eliminated!!! Kostoff never had a chance…it’s like he was playing a game on his phone while everyone else had Ipads.
Benny Newell: And that phone is probably a flip phone..lets be honest.
Joe Hoffman: Well folks we are down to Keller and Stevens in solitary….Kirsta and Black in the kitchen and somewhere Sektor is with Lee…and where is Michael?
As if on cue…well let’s be honest…it’s right on fucking cue….we cut the chapel of the prison.
The HOTv feed is focused in on a cross in the middle of the chapel. Like a scene from years ago the cross is upside down. There is nothing holy about the scene we are being shown as we see all the wrestlers who were guards earlier in the show standing around the cross. In front of them leading the presentation is Lee Best who has John Sektor at his side.
“The reason I signed PWX, NEW, Warped, and SHOOT to High Octane Television is because of the strong leadership within each company. Each company is not held back by censors or boundaries. They are who they are and their fans love them for it. Together we will be the epicenter of all those diehard wrestling fans who want to be entertained each and every week. For awhile there was doubt about the leadership in HOW. Well I have you were tonight…as my guests…to show you personally that I am the ONLY person that runs this company..and to prove a point…..I give you my son.”
The camera pans up to show Michael Lee Best as the one that is literally nailed to the cross. He is out cold.
“This is my Son…this is Michael. He has been to the top of the mountain several times and has most recently been to the bottom of the valley….all because I was not here to provide the leadership and fatherly advice that he needed. Right now in other parts of this prison there is a war going on for a Championship Belt. That war will be won by John Sektor who now stands to my right. That is why this moment…this EXACT moment is why you are here. “
Lee smiles at John and pats the top of his head and then suddenly thrusts his arm up towards the cross and his Son and drives a spear into his rib cage and as he pulls it out blood flows to the ground.
“I will do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to make sure HOW survives. I will do anything and everything to make sure HOTv survives. Your owners have been given a boatload of money to invest back into your companies. All in exchange for the rights to your programming....but this…..THIS…”
Lee points at his SON.
“…is to show each and everyone of you that I will what needs to be done to prove I am back in charge of HOW and we are not going anywhere. Michael is the sacrificial lamb tonight and John will be the one that ascends to the throne..and trust me..just cause I keep stating that doesn’t mean he will lose..there is no red herrings….tonight I prove a point to EVERYONE.”
Everyone focuses in on Mike bleeding out as we see Lee and John smiling.
“Now…I have one last thing for you all to do……John…….do what you are meant to do and go win the match……me and the boys here got one more thing to do.”
John nods as the feed cuts away but not before we see Mike open his eyes.
The feed cuts back to Solitary where Stevens and Keller are going toe to toe. Keller has busted Stevens open once again and he is now wearing the proverbial crimson mask.
Keller is not off any better as he is basically in shock as his skin is charred on part of his neck and cheek.
The men are brawling, exchanging tired right hands, when suddenly the door is opened up. Both men look untrustingly towards the opened door but then slowly make their way towards the exit.
Joe Hoffman: You gotta feel for these two. They basically just want….NEED…to get out of this wing. After spending darn near two weeks in the cell and then to be released and jumped….who can blame them?
Benny Newell: Huh what? Sorry…was watching Black take a cheese grater to Kirsta’s tits….seriously…look.
The HOTv feed cuts back to the kitchen where we see David Black literally doing what Benny just said….rubbing a cheese grater across the now exposed left breast of Kirsta.
She is screaming…no howling…in pain as blood begins to flow down the contours of her body. Black rips open her jumpsuit even further exposing Kirsta fully.
David pauses, realizing what he is doing, but then continues anyway as he begins working on her right breast….fully intending for her to scream out SHE QUITS….but she doesn’t not quit.
Instead her left hand is searching on the ground for something..anything….and she finds it. The frying pan she used earlier.
She brings it up and nails Black in the head with it……but there is no effect. Black is zoned completely out….NEEDING Kirsta to tap out…..and again she swings…and this time Black falls back on his ass and looks at Kirsta who swings one more time and Black is able to scoot back on the concrete just quick enough to avoid a full blow from the frying pan.
Kirsta jumps to her feet and looks down at her mangled nipples….and then smiles. She pulls her arms out of the jumpsuit and ties the arms around her waist to keep the jumpsuit up …but by doing so she is fully exposed from the waist up.
She tosses the frying pan back and forth between her left and right hands like she is Serena Williams…waiting….BEGGING…for Black to get up and come at her.
WHACK
Suddenly she is knocked to the ground as we see Sektor standing over her. Kirsta turns towards Sektor and sees that he used a crucifix to blindside her.
“What the fuck Sek?”
Sektor pounces on her and stabs her in the leg with the crucifix and pushes it deep inside her leg. She sits up and screams at Sektor to stop but he just growls at Kirsta as he plunges the crucifix deeper into her leg causing blood to shoot out from the wound.
Kirsta finally falls backwards and passes out.
Nigel Lette has no choice but to officially eliminate Kirsta.
Joe Hoffman: Kirsta Lewis has been eliminated and I have no words to say right now…
But there is no time to elaborate as guards rush into the kitchen and grab both Black and Sektor.
Joe Hoffman: Folks I am being told that the final four….Keller, Stevens, Black and Sektor are being led to the final setting for tonight’s match. I have no idea where they are being led to but give us a few moments and we will be right back…
The feed cuts to black…..and as the final four are being led to wherever they need to be led to…..we cut back to the chapel.
We cut back to the chapel where we see crewmen lowering the upside down cross to the floor. Medics have rushed in and are working on Michael. Lee and the rest of his guests are nowhere to be seen. Michael is very pale and there is barely a pulse.
But he is alive.
As the medics put him on a stretcher there is a loud banging noise. Everyone looks and sees a dark figure standing at the entrance.
As he begins to walk towards the medics they see who he is and they quickly run to the back room of the chapel.
The figure stops next to the stretcher and places his left hand on the right shoulder of Michael and then lowers himself down to him and whispers.
“You will die…but not tonight…and not at the hands of Lee.”
With that the man smiles and grabs the back of the stretcher and begins pushing it towards the exit of the chapel.
As he reaches the exit he pauses and turns…revealing his face just long enough so we figure out who it is….before disappearing with the body of the Son of God.
Shane Reynolds
The feed now cuts to another part of the prison where we see the final four wrestlers handcuffed together by a long chain. There are several legit prison guards standing behind them. As the camera pans back we see exactly where we are.
The Infirmary
Joe Hoffman: What a night…and to think we only have had one match tonight. It all will end here ..in the Alcatraz Infirmary where some famous scenes have taken place…Aceldama anyone?
Benny Newell: Sektor. That is all.
Matt Boettcher and Joel Hortega are the only refs in the room. With all four men bound together there is not going to be the huge chaos that there was earlier.
Suddenly the door to the infirmary opens and in walks Lee Best.
“Here are the simple rules boys. Pin or submit the other three and you win. Right now you are all handcuffed to each other. There are three handcuff keys. They are hidden here in this room. Find a key..unlock yourself….win the match basically after that….get it..got it …good?”
Lee exits stage left just as quick as he entered and Boettcher motions for the guards to let the men go as the match is now officially resumed.
Keller immediately wraps part of the chain around the neck of Black as Sektor and Stevens begin exchanging elbows and blows to the head.
The four men are almost playing a tug of war with each other as they just do not have enough space to execute any sort of move to gain an advantage. Throwing little rabbit punches goes only so far and quickly all four men are focused on finding the keys to the handcuffs instead of trying to bruise their competitors.
It is then that Keller spots the keys….but the camera does not pick them up at all.
Joe Hoffman: Wait….seriously??
The camera pans over to a table on the other side of the room and we see the imprint of three keys just under the skin of what appears to be a cadaver.
To get that location all four have to work together.
Benny Newell: This is like some shitty B rated horror flick! I LOVE IT!!
Keller has no choice to point out the keys to the other three and together all four men stand up and walk towards the cadaver and its there that it’s not just any cadaver..
Joe Hoffman: OH MY GOD!!!!
What Keller thought was the bicep of an adult was really a right leg…….the right leg of a small child.
Keller pulls the sheet back and everyone stares in shock to see that it is literally maybe a six month old baby.
Joe Hoffman: I cannot watch this shit….
Benny Newell: Joe cussed!!
Black, Stevens and Sektor all turn their heads away at the sight of the deceased baby. But not Keller.
Keller sees the scalpel on the table and reaches for it and cuts into the baby’s leg and blood trickles out..Signaling that this baby has not been dead for long.
Keller pulls the key out and unlocks himself and turns towards the other three who are just staring at him.
Keller swings the scalpel at the men but each duck out of the way and soon enough it’s a three on one affair.
Keller has the upper hand as he uses his quick thinking to his advantage as he delivers blow after blow to each of the men while moving rapidly causing them men to almost trip over themselves.
Black catches Keller with a solid right hand that sends Keller down to the ground. Keller scoots back and begins looking for weapons as the other three struggles to move towards Keller…none wanting to reach into the baby and get the other keys.
Keller is seen smiling as he sees a table full of needles. Each labeled with what drug is in them…and the one that Keller has says Heroin.
Keller turns and sees the men struggling and he seizes the opportunity and rushes at Sektor….and drives the needle deep into the flesh.
The sounds of Joe and Benny throwing up can be heard audibly on the feed as we see the needle sticking out of the throat of the deceased baby.
Sektor, who picked up the baby as a reflex to block the needle now swings the dead baby at Keller, knocking the World Champion down to the ground. Sektor realizing what he just did, drops the baby to the floor and the resounding thud can be heard.
Stevens turns and throws up as Black and Sektor look to the ground and see that the remaining keys have been dislodged from Keller’s previous cut to the baby’s leg.
Black and Sektor fall to their knees and their hands are covered in the blood from the baby as they both reach and pick up separate keys. As they quickly unlock themselves Black and Sektor turn towards the World Champion who is staggering towards the door.
Sektor is in the lead to catch Keller but just as he does Keller spins around, uses Sektors momentum against himself and whips Sektor face first into the wall. As the ICON Champion bounces off Keller nails him with his Centrifugal Elbow without the cartwheel.
Because the full force of the move was not there Keller does not go for the cover but instead taunts Sektor.
This costs him as he is spun around and nailed by Scott Stevens and his Toxic Sting stunner. Stevens, still handcuffed to the chain, struggles to go for the cover but the only person that can stop him, Black, doesn’t.
Stevens with the cover on Keller…
1……..
2………
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: The World Champion has been eliminated!!!!
Stevens stands to his feet and just as he does he is met by David Black nailing him with his Blackout finisher.
Now it is David Black who covers the LSD Champion….
1………………….
2………………….
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: And finally.and officially…..Scott Stevens has been eliminated as well. We are down to two….David Black and John Sektor!
Black rolls off Stevens and looks at Sektor who is slowly getting to his feet. Sektor staggers towards Black who literally jumps in the air…grabs Sektor by the back of the neck, folds his knees up….
Then crashes to the ground as Sektor blocks the Codebreaker like finishing move of Black.
David hits his head hard on the cold concrete and blood begins to trickle along the floor as Black looks legit concussed.
Sektor falls on top of him and Boettcher makes the count.
1………………
2……………..
KICKOUT by Black.
Sektor grabs Black by the ears and bounces his head off the concrete and covers again.
1…………….
2………………….
KICKOUT AGAIN by Black.
Frustrated Sektor rolls of Black and pulls himself up via the nearest table and on this table is an AED device.
Sektor, smiling, pulls the foil off the AED with full intentions of shocking and BURNING Black.
He turns and walks right into a desperation Blackout from the former World Champion.
Sektor is out cold on the ground as a very concussed Black is also lying on his back…trying to gather himself.
Slowly and surely he does and he slings an arm over onto the chest of Sektor and makes the cover.
1…………………………..
2…………………………..
KICKOUT BY SEKTOR…KICKOUT BY SEKTOR!!!!
Both men are lying prone on the floor as they struggle to continue. Sektor looks at the AED and smirks before placing the pads on his own chest and delivers a shock to his own system.
He screams out in pain as the voltage burns his chest but he is quick to his feet and pulls Black up slowly and nails the main with a perfect piledriver onto the concrete….obviously targeting the head.
Sektor covers again as blood is pouring out of the head of Black now.
1………………
KICKOUT!
Joe Hoffman: Wow what a Kickout by Black there….
Sektor looks stunned at Black but then he sees the needle sticking out of the mans bicep.
Adrenaline.
Black obviously snagged a needle that had fallen to the ground and seized the opportunity.
Both men are quick to their feet and now are in exchanging right hands…literal bombs to the head.
Sektor gains the upper hand finally as the blows to the head are proving too much for Black in the long run.
Black staggers backwards and as he does Sektor charges and spears the man thru the doors of the infirmary causing the men to land in the hallway.
The cameraman and Boettcher run outside to follow the action and we see Black rolling Sektor over slowly as he holds his ribs in pain.
It is then that we see why he has the advantage as a replay is shown on HOTv of Black literally putting his knees up just in time to deliver a devastating Blackout to Sektor…this time using all of the momentum from Sektor to deliver the fatal blow.
Black covers as Boettcher counts.
1……………..
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boettcher raises the arm of Black as medics rush to the scene to care for both men.
The announcers are not even given a chance to say anything as the HOTv feed fades out to the Prison Yard where a literal riot has just broken out as its obvious Lee pulled the plug on any lingering image of Black defeating Sektor.
As we cut to the Prison Yard and as Rumble at the Rock feed ends we see all the wrestlers from NEW, SHOOT, WARPED, and PWX literally brawling with everyone from HOW as the HOTv logo comes on everyones screen.
Teaser:
...
Results:
The High Octane Television logo gives way to the HOW logo and then ultimately the Rumble at the Rock promotional banner where it then slowly fades into darkness. “Born to Rise” by the Redlight Kings begins to play as the show begins with a wide shot of Alcatraz Island. It is clear that the camera is on the shore and the image of the infamous prison at night is one ominous sight.
We are able to see the outline of the prison courtesy of several outside lines on the prison grounds being on but suddenly the picture goes all black as the lights are extinguished. The feed then goes black.
Stays black.
Suddenly the sound of a door creaking is accompanied by the image of the entrance to the prison being slowly opened by an unknown man.
As we continue on with the point of view entry into the prison we walk into complete darkness and the silence is almost deafening.
The POV continues thru what the prison and we occasionally get glimpses of the cells as the camera pans up and left and right as it continues to make its way into the belly of the prison.
Alcatraz was shut down to any public tour for the last two weeks and in that short amount of time the prison appears to almost gone back in time as you can feel that the prison is alive almost. Off camera unrecognizable sounds can be heard and words seem to be heard thru strained ears trying to decipher whispers from a time long ago.
Suddenly the camera stops and it is focused straight ahead where a figure can be seen standing. In the darkness there are no features to be seen but the silhouette is unmistakable.
Lee Best.
The sound of his footsteps are the only the sounds that can be heard now as he approaches the camera.
Within a few feet of the camera we finally see the face of the God of HOW…..and he is smiling.
He smirks and then slowly pulls of the eye patch that is covering his eye from the Bottom Line he suffered at the hands of HOW Hall of Famer Chris Kostoff at War Games.
Lee reaches his arms out and snaps the camera towards him so we all get a great view of the damaged eye socket where his eye once lay.
He violently pushes it back and smirks into the camera.
“Welcome to the show…..I got a surprise for you”
With that Lee puts the eye patch back on and spins on his heels and walks back into the darkness.
“Follow me…..follow me directly into hell”
As with all High Octane cameramen he has no choice and does what he is told. But the way the camera is shaking as it moves forward after the God of HOW it is apparent that neither the cameraman nor anyone viewing on HOTv has any idea what is going to happen tonight or what Lee has in store for all of High Octane.
That is never a good thing.
The cameraman quickly catches up to Lee as we enter another room where several people are flying around the room in a panicked state. This is obviously the control room for the live telecast and a few of the people catch glimpses of themselves on huge monitors that have been set up.
As the camera pans around the room we get the full scope of the coverage as literally every inch of the prison appears to be covered. The camera stops on one particular monitor and we see why. It is the feed for the Solitary Confinement wing of the prison. There are several PIP on the monitor, each one showing one of the participants in tonight’s World Title Match.
“On me douchebag…on me”
The camera quickly jerks to the left and we see Lee Best standing behind the two Hall of Fame announcers, Joe Hoffman and Big Buff Benny Newell.
Lee has a hand on a shoulder of each man and is once again showcasing his infamous smirk.
“Tonight is a very important night and I wanted to show everyone that is watching on HOTv just exactly how much in control I am. A sense or order has been restored here in High Octane Wrestling and everything that happens tonight has meticulously been planned and will happen for a very specific reason. My boys Joe and Benny will be calling the action and trust me when I say that they have no fucking clue what the hell is going to happen as well….right boys?”
Both Joe and Benny nod their heads in agreement. Benny taking it an extra step by placing his hand over the hand of Lee’s on his shoulder and smiling up at his boss. Even with one eye, Lee is able to stare Benny’s hand off of his own and Newell quickly takes a swig out of his official High Octane Flask as Lee continues.
“Now I know everyone wanted to see myself and Kostoff go toe to toe to open the show. I get that seeing that old piece of shit rolling around in the dirt in the Prison Yard is somehow appealing to all you fuckers but did you honestly think that I would actually partake in a match that could by some piece of luck would end in my ultimate demise….so soon after finally returning??”
Lee scoffs and looks down at his announcers to see that they are agreeing….and with a strong squeeze of each shoulder both men quickly nod their heads in agreement.
“Instead tonight we will open with a special surprise for the viewers. But before we get to that let me just say that for all those that bought the HOTv package on their Satellite provider JUST to see Kostoff whip my ass…well I want your money and will not be refunding it and with that in mind I am throwing the old man a bone…..show them you fucking monkeys.”
Lee points to a large 90” TV monitor that is gracing the opposite wall of the room. This is obviously the “main” monitor that will show the live feed that is being presented to all those watching on HOTv.
With that the feed cuts away from the room and the viewers are now watching a live feed of inside a cell. We see a large man pacing back and forth inside of the small cell. The man then pauses and looks up at the camera and flips it off.
Chris Kostoff is not happy.
The feed then cuts away to show that the cell that Kostoff is in is part of the Solitary wing.
We quickly cut back to the control room and this time all the focus is on Lee.
“That is right. Kostoff is now part of the World Title match. Remember…everything that is happening tonight is happening for a reason. Remember that.”
Lee pauses and looks at his watch.
“Well it is almost time folks. This broadcast will literally be a one match show. You will see Professor Keller try to retain the coveted World Title and by the looks of the latest results on the HOWrestling dot com poll it appears NO ONE believes he will retain. Well here is a little spoiler for you….I guarantee he wont. That ungrateful piece of shit is going to learn to kneel before me with pride. Tonight that motherfucker will learn what happens when you try to get famous by talking shit about the God of HOW. In the infamous words of Doc Holiday……I will be your huckleberry.”
Lee takes off his jacket and puts it over the head of Joe as he motions for the cameraman to follow him.
“It is time for some #970000 colored blood to grace the floor and walls of this prison. Tonight all that is right with High Octane Wrestling will be restored. Tonight I right the ship. TONIGHT IS MINE!!!!”
With that the live feed goes black.
The feed is still dark until a flashlight beam lets the viewer’s know that we are still live.
“Flip on the fucking light on the camera idiot”
The sound of Lee giving orders just sounds right and the cameraman obliges and with the light from the camera we see that Lee is walking straight ahead of the camera leading the way but because of this we are only catching glimpses of the environment. Glimpses that are already obscured by the total lack of light in the prison.
“You know I had the lights shut off earlier today because I want these assholes BLIND when they come out of those cells. There is going to be a lot of shit going on early in this match and because I am a cheating bastard I made sure that the order of entry for the match……well let’s just say that it favors a few people.”
Lee stops and the sound of dozens of footsteps can be heard approaching from behind the camera.
“Keep straight ahead douchebag. Do not worry about that which goes bump in the night”
The sound of keys jingling can be heard and we see two guards come into the picture and open up what was obviously a locked door.
“This way everyone…this way. Solitary is just a little farther down.”
The camera is visibly shaking as Lee is leading what sounds like an army of men down the hallway.
“The footsteps you are hearing are guards. Because of the nature of this match I need a sense of order if you will. John Sektor is the only person that I trust in this match and I am going to make sure that he has protection at all times. Is that fair? Of course not. Professor Keller has turned Sektor into an afterthought. He has relegated Sektor’s moustache to being more over than Sektor. His FUCKING MOUSTACHE?? What is he…Bob fucking Jared?”
Lee can be seen shaking his head as he continues to lead the men towards the Solitary wing.
“You see the Sektor I know was known for his…well you know…wrestling? He was a man that was on the cusp of gaining entry into the Hall of Fame. Now? He is a fucking walking cartoon. Keller is a smart motherfucker. There is no doubt in my mind that it was his plan to make John a non-factor with all this ProDouchebag bullshit.”
Lee stops and turns towards the camera.
“What did Keller get out of it? The World Title. What did John get? Second place..the ICON Title. Hey the ICON Title is more coveted than most other companies World Titles…..but…ITS. NOT. THE. WORLD. TITLE.”
Lee pauses for the cause and then slowly turns back around and continues to lead everyone down the hall. Finally after a few more minutes he stops and he steps to the side so the camera can focus in on the door that leads into the Solitary wing of the prison.
“Let’s do this shit.”
With that one of the guards enters the picture and unlocks the door leading into the wing. Lee turns and motions for only the cameraman to follow him.
“I will need the rest of you in a minute. For now..just you.”
With that Lee leads the cameraman into the Solitary wing to officially begin the action.
As the door shuts behind Lee the sound of the prisoners scuffling to their feet to put their ears to the door can be heard. There is still only the light from the camera and the tension is palpable.
“Rise and shine douchebags….rise and shine.”
Lee pauses and listens. There are no replies. He smiles knowing he has their full attention.
“Ladies it is time for the World Title Match and as I am sure you are putting two and two together you are realizing that not only did Kostoff NOT kill me….it’s quite the opposite. He is among you. Literally. The Hall of Fame dicksucker is in the World Title match and he is mad…..my bad on that one.”
Lee chuckles to himself as continues…
“I want to let you all know that there is going to be a little change to the rules of the match. It is still going to be elimination obviously but there will be not be any five minute intervals. Instead when I leave and shut that door behind me…well your doors will open. There will be ten minutes for whatever is going to happen to happen. After ten minutes the door to this wing will open and chaos will reign supreme. If you cannot figure it out the ten minutes is the time I will need to go get into position to watch the violence unfold.”
Lee walks slowly up to the door that he knows holds a certain individual.
“Hold that title close Keller. Press it close to your still beating heart. You waited a full year to win that precious title and I am going to take it away from you tonight….with you never getting another shot at it. Tonight you will choke on italic shaped violence…..tonight you will learn the word respect.”
Lee walks away from the door and back to the middle of the corridor.
“Listen up everyone. For months you have gotten away with half assing it. Let’s face it some of you should not even be in this fucking match. But because Scotty ran the roster into the ground you are here only because you are a warm body. Take advantage of this opportunity. It will not come again for some of you for a very long time…if ever. Tonight is your chance to prove me and the whole High Octane Television viewing audience wrong. Prove to us that you are not a joke. Prove to us that you belong with the best of the best. Prove to your fucking self that you belong here…in this wing…in this match….in this moment.”
Lee again pauses for the cause before wrapping it up.
“In a few seconds I am going to walk out of this wing and the match will begin. This match means EVERYTHING to some but SOMETHING to everyone. Do not waste this opportunity. I cannot say that enough.”
Lee takes a deep breath and turns towards the door. He reaches it and knocks on it signaling the guard on the other side to open it up. We hear the lock being turned and the door swings open. Lee takes one step out but then stops and turns back towards the wing.
“Ya…one more thing. Whoever eliminates Keller from this match will get $100,000 and a spot in the Best Alliance if they choose so.”
With a smile, Lee turns and exits the wing leaving the cameraman alone in the wing.
The camera, now shaking more than ever before, turns back towards the action and we can hear the cameraman audibly sigh as he prepares to film the match.
Suddenly one door pops open and after a few moments we see who was in the cell.
The World Champion…Professor Keller.
He slowly exits the cell and with only the light from the camera we see that he is wearing the World Title around his waist.
The sound of the wing door opening up is heard and the cameraman turns to see all the guards Lee was referring to earlier enter the fray.
One of them walks up to Keller and rips the World Title off of him and quickly exits the wing and shuts the door behind him…leaving only Keller, the cameraman, and all the guards behind him.
The sound of the door being locked is heard and the focus returns to Keller as we see him trying to get his eyes to adjust to the darkness.
Suddenly the cameraman is pushed to the side and the guards rush towards Keller.
The wing is lit up as a stream of fire hits Keller in the face and the World Champion falls to the ground screaming in pain. The guards form a circle around Keller as three of the guards take off their hats and “guard” jackets.
We cannot make out who these three guards are but the one who just spit the fireball at Keller is on all fours…trying to look at the damage he caused as Keller rolls around in pain.
Suddenly one of the three guards grabs Keller and locks in a chickenwing, holding the World Champion in place as the third and final guard not in the circle comes into focus.
He has a belt of his own…and he is taking it off.
He gets in the face of Keller and smiles back at the camera revealing who he and the other two are and for the first time tonight we hear the voice of Joe Hoffman.
Joe Hoffman: What?? That’s Hugo Strange..the WARPED CHAMPION??!!!
The cameraman is grabbed and we see Mr. Rottentreats smile into the camera…obviously revealing himself to be the one that spit the fireball.
Mr. Rottentreats forces the cameraman to zoom in on the face of Keller and we finally see who the third man is….Seth Moore.
Joe Hoffman: All three of these men are from WARPED Wrestling…what the hell is going on here?
The cameraman is pushed back and as he regains his balance we watch as the three Warped wrestlers all get to their feet and begin to pummel the High Octane Wrestling World Champion.
Joe Hoffman: This is crazy…..WARPED is beating up our World Champion before the rest of the competitors are even released!
Benny Newell: I think the correct phrase is softening him up. Remember what Lee said…everything is happening for a reason you idiot.
The WARPED wrestlers continue to pummel Keller and their beating appears to mercifully end as Rottentreats and Moore are seen holding Keller up just so Strange can deliver a sickening shot to the head with the WARPED Championship.
Keller is out cold on the concrete as the WARPED guys pat each other on the back and head towards the exit.
As the door shuts and locks behind them we hear another door being opened inside of the wing and the cameraman and the guards turn towards it and we see the LSD Champion Scott Stevens come rushing out of his cell and into the corridor swinging madly.
His eyes have not yet adjusted as the light from the camera is blinding him as three more guards step out of formation and attack the LSD Champion with a barrage of blows. We see that one man is wearing a pair of barbed wire gloves and with each blow pieces of Steven’s skin and #970000 colored prison jumpsuit are torn away.
We then see a baseball bat come crashing down on the back of Stevens and the LSD Champion falls face down to the concrete. Two of the guards then hold Stevens limp body up as we see the third line up and bring his fist to the forehead of Stevens with a sickening thud as we see that a heavy chain has been balled up in his fist.
They let go of Stevens and the man falls to the ground as the guards turn towards the camera.
Joe Hoffman: What is going on here!!! I am being told that these three men are Jacob Mephisto, Dan Stein and the SHOOT Sin City Champion Valentine Lionheart….THESE ARE SHOOT PROJECT WRESTLERS!!
The SHOOT members are smiling as they look down at the fallen HOW LSD Champion.
Joe Hoffman: Another HOW Champion has fallen victim to an outside federation. Where is Lee??
As if on cue we hear Lee’s voice come out over the loud speaker.
“Thank you gentlemen. Please tell your bosses that the check is in the mail and if you would like you can come watch the rest of the show with me and the WARPED guys in my …um…private suite.”
The SHOOT guys look down at Stevens one final time and the camera follows their gaze and we see Stevens is busted wide open.
The three SHOOT guys exit the wing and we get a sense of déjà vu as the door shuts and locks the wing and a cell door opens.
The remaining guards turn towards the door and we see Chris Kostoff come slowly walking out. There is an air of confidence surrounding the HOW Hall of Famer as everyone who is watching knows….
He is ready to fight.
The cameraman points the camera at Kostoff and we see the big man has his eyes closed. He has his hands up and is waiting for the onslaught and sure enough it comes.
This time its only two guards who attack but for good reason. They both pull out what appears to be guns and fire.
Four prods enter the chest of the HOW Hall of Famer as electricity flows thru the big mans body, causing him to fall to his knees. He continues to convulse as the men refuse to release the trigger on the stun guns.
Finally and mercifully they do and Kostoff falls to his back with a heavy thud.
Joe Hoffman: Who is this now? Def-
Benny Newell: DO NOT EVEN SAY THAT WORD YOU IDIOT.
Before Benny can continue the two guards turn towards the camera and reveal themselves….
Joe Hoffman: That is Adam Stryker…the PWX Hybrid Champion and Troy Stone the PWX World Champion!!!
Benny Newell: Where the fuck is the penguin??
Joe Hoffman: Wow….Lee struck a deal with PWX? You know Pariah cannot be running PWX anymore if that is the case…who is in charge?
Both announcers scramble for answers as the live feed shows the two men struggle to pick up the helpless Kostoff and as they let go he is on his feet just long enough for Stone to nail Kostoff with his Cloud Nine Soulless Mayhem facebuster finisher.
Benny Newell: Cloud Nine Soul….ah fuck it. He knocked the fucker out and now Kostoff is out cold alongside Keller and Stevens. Great start to this HOW World Title match…no?
Joe is for once speechless as the PWX men slowly exit the wing and possibly for the final time we hear the door close behind them and lock as we see only two guards remaining.
Both of them turn their attention to the cell door that just popped open and we see Dick Fury makes his way out.
Joe Hoffman: Well this is certainly one way to make your HOW debut.
Dick Fury comes racing out of his cell….
……and is met with a superkick right to the chin sending him into the arms of the other guard who immediately executes a perfect bridging German Suplex.
The other guard who executed the superkick quickly gets on the ground and counts out a three count and the two guards can be heard laughing as they help each other up.
Joe Hoffman: Well I don’t know any prison guards who execute those moves..what company are these guys with?
Benny Newell: I am guessing ….who gives a fuck? They just kicked a dick in the chin. A DICK…JOE…A DICK.
Joe can only shake his head at Benny as the live feed follows the two remaining guards as go around the room and literally proceed to lift Keller, Kostoff, and Stevens one by one and execute perfect double belly to belly suplexs on the men. Each time the sound of a head and back of the HOW wrestlers hitting the cold concrete elicits audible responses from the remaining locked up HOW superstars.
The camera focuses in on the two guards who walk up to the camera and reveal themselves.
Joe Hoffman: Seth Iser and Nocturnal from New Edge Wrestling??!!
Benny Newell: Unstable
Joe Hoffman: I would say they are…I mean what is going…
Benny Newell: That is their tag name Joe…Unstable. They got that whore of a valet Emily Koresh. Yank bank material.
As the camera focuses in on the men as they leave the wing and the door shuts there is nothing but silence.
The cameraman turns and we see the carnage that was caused by the WARPED, SHOOT, PWX and NEW wrestlers.
Joe Hoffman: To everyone that paid for this show I apologize. It is apparently clear that you picked the wrong day to upgrade your satellite package to include HOTv because you are not seeing a HOW Television show…you are seeing a complete takeover.
Benny Newell: Wrong numnuts…you are seeing Lee make an example of these idiots.
Joe Hoffman: Whatever it is…it is wrong.
Suddenly we hear Lee’s voice come over the PA system again.
“Folks that concludes the introduction of the newest members of the High Octane Television family…..now that’s get to that World Title match huh? OPEN EVERY MOTHERFUCKING CELL AND LET THERE BE LIGHT!!!”
With that the doors for each cell pop open and all the lights in the wing come on and slowly each wrestler makes their way out and we see that Lee’s intended impact is realized as each person is literally blinded by the light.
Benny Newell: Great song..
Joe Hoffman: Huh?
Benny Newell: Blinded by the light….wrapped up like a douche in the middle of the night..
Joe Hoffman: WHAT???
Benny Newell: Never mind….great tune tho…great tune.
There is a literal feeling of a calm before the storm as we see Tara Michaels, Maximillian Kael, David Black, Christopher Diamond, Scottywood and a mace carrying Kirsta Lewis all enter the corridor.
“Fuck the ten minutes…..open the door!!”
With that the door to Solitary Confinement is unlocked and the World Title match is officially underway.
Everyone pauses and looks at Kirsta who’s mace is literally like a giant big African elephant in the room. Each wrestler looks worse for wear in their prison jumpsuits after spending over a week and a half literally in a prison cell….but being freed…well you can tell that whatever issues they were having before this moment are now in the rearview mirror as everyone is focused in on one thing and one thing only.
Kirsta’s Mace.
Benny Newell: That is one big ass fucking dildo. I mean I knew she could take a pounding…but I mean c’mon!!
Joe Hoffman: Uh…Benny..thats a Mace. Like from medieval times….
Benny Newell: Uh Joe…I know a Magic Stick when I see one….thats another great tune.
Joe Hoffman: Are you high?
Benny Newell: Oh life my friend…on life.
All focus returns to Solitary and everyone rushes at Kirsta……but she is able to get a shot in on one person before everyone takes her to the ground.
The ball of the mace literally knocks Tara off her feet as the force of the object hitting her shoulder sends her flying, ripping skin away in the process.
Black is able to get Kirsta to drop the mace by slamming her hand hard against the concrete. Black quickly jumps to his feet and its now he who holds the weapon but not for long as everyone rushes at him…..everyone but Max.
Max slowly covers Tara and we see HOW senior referee Matt Boettcher, who was standing at the doorway watching, rush into the wing and slide into position to make the count.
1…..
2…..
KICKOUT by Tara.
Max is shocked as he looks down at Tara…but then he smiles. But his smile is met with a knee to the balls and Max slumps to the side as Tara pushes him off her.
She slowly gets to her feet and leans up against the wall and watches as she turns to see everyone trying to wrestle the mace away from the former World Champion and self-proclaimed greatest LSD Champions hands.
Suddenly the door to Tara’s right opens up and out walks John Sektor. Tara is shocked at first to see him as he did not initially exit his cell when they were popped open.
The two exchange a look before she swings hard at Sektor but she is too late as the ICON Champion nails her in the throat with the edge of his IPAD that he during his time in solitary.
“Just upgraded the iOS too bitch.”
With that he swings and smacks Tara across the face with the IPAD knocking her out cold. Before Sektor can turn and cover Tara he is grabbed from behind and he turns to see Max Kael staring at him.
Benny Newell: Why don’t those two just pin Stevens, Keller, Kostoff and Dick….pin a dick….greatness.
Joe Hoffman: Well lets be honest. All attention went directly to Kirsta and the mace. You cannot blame them for literally missing the opportunity to get some really impactful pinfalls right out the SHOOT.
Benny Newell: Why to emphasis on SHOOT. Lee be proud.
Joe Hoffman: Focus Benny…Focus. This is not some WARPED type of commentary.
Benny Newell: Company man..loving it.
Back inside the solitary wing Scottywood has gained control of the mace and is swinging it madly at anyone and everyone.
Everyone is scattering and we see Kirsta, Diamond and Black literally exit the Solitary wing and enter the hallway that leads to general population.
The HOTv feed stays in solitary however as we Scottywood stalking towards Max and Sektor and he swings the mace again and the force of the blow is true as it nails Max in the middle of his back, sending the HOW Hall of Famer to his knees.
Sektor looks at Scotty with crazed eyes and instead of going after Scotty he nails Max with a right hand to the jaw and Scotty pushes down on the back of Max to pull the mace out as blood begins to pour on the concrete.
Scotty and Sektor are now eye to eye as the two are literally the last two standing in the Solitary wing.
Sektor points down at Max and Tara and Scotty nods and the two make the covers….
Sektor pinning Tara….
1…..
Scotty pinning Max….
2…..
3!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Maximillian Kael and Tara Michaels have been eliminated!!
Benny Newell: Hey that is Bryan McVay’s gig.
Joe can only shrug as we see that both Scotty and Sektor are scrambling to cover the people who were attacked earlier on by the rival companies.
Scotty gets to Dick Fury and covers while Sektor scrambles to Stevens.
1……………….
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Dick Fury and Scott Stevens have been eliminated!!!!!!
Benny Newell: WAIT…YOU FUCKED UP JOE!!
And Benny is right as Boettcher is signaling that Stevens kicked out just in time. Boettcher can be seen talking into a mic on his shirt asking for help as he is having a hard time reffing all this action in one section of the prison.
Sektor is seen arguing with Boettcher as Scotty scrambles over to Kostoff and covers the big man but just as he is about to he notices Kostoff is smiling up at him.
Scotty jumps up to his feet…grabs the mace..and hustles towards the door and exits the wing… but suddenly we see an arm come into the picture and swings a fist upwards, catching him on the bottom of the chin with follow through. Scotty launches about two feet into the air and lands hard onto his back. Dazed and confused he lies on the back staring up at the man who delivered the devastating uppercut. Lee motherfucking Best!
“Stiches for my bitches”
Lee smiles as he screams at the guards to grab Sektor.
They run into the wing and grab the ICON Champion by both arms and drag him out of the wing and when he sees Lee he just smiles.
“Grab the eliminated fuckers and lock this fucker down.”
The guards grab everyone that has been eliminated and they shut the door and lock it and we see Kostoff, Keller and Stevens as the only people remaining in the wing as each are beginning to stir.
Lee motions towards Scottywood and Sektor smiles and quickly covers the knocked out Hall of Famer.
A hustling Joel Hortega, HOW’s resident junior ref, gets into position and makes the count.
1…………..
2………………
3!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Scottywood has been eliminated!!!
Benny Newell: I guess he will be Ballin on a Budget from now on…man that’s a great tune as well.
The guards lead Scottywood out of the corridor as Lee and Sektor walk slowly away leaving Solitary behind.
The feed then switches to what appears to be the kitchen area of Alcatraz where we see Kirsta Lewis, Christopher Diamond and David Black in the middle of a chaotic scene as the three have been using literally everything that they can as a weapon.
Benny Newell: Oh this is bad for Kirsta…..the kitchen is not her strong suit..and what I mean is that the bitch sucks a lot of dick because she cannot cook….feel me Mr. Hoffman?
Joe ignores Benny as we see that Black has turned on the deep fryer and has trying desperately to push Diamond’s head into it……that is until Kirsta nails Black in the back of the head with a frying pan.
Diamond turns to thank Kirsta but he is met with a shot across the face as well. Kirsta looks around but sees no ref.
Kirsta: You got to be kidding me..where the hell is the refs!!!
“Um….right here?”
Nigel Lette appears from the back of the room. With the lights off you just couldn’t see the man.
Kirsta: Sorry Nig…
Nigel holds up his hands and motions for her to stop which she obliges and then she proceeds to quickly cover both men.
1………………………..
2………………………..
Both men kick out just in time. Kirsta obviously cost herself two eliminations by looking for a ref that was clearly already in the area.
Benny Newell: Just proves my point that Kirsta is a racist bitch who can only tell if a person is black or white by how much real estate that take up in her vagina..and by vagina I mean pussy Joe. And by pussy I mean her fucking black hole Joe….BLACK hole.
Joe Hoffman: I got it Benny…I got it.
Kirsta pounds the concrete in disgust and begins looking around for weapons.
Benny Newell: If the bitch knew her way around a kitchen she would go get a fucking knife already.
Kirsta finally sees something suitable and sees a blender. She plugs it in and turns it on and picks up Diamond and bounces his head off the countertop before proceeding to place his head into the industrial sized blender.
Diamond’s hot visor begins to be chopped away by the blender as Kirsta continues to push his head further down into the machine and after a few seconds the visor is no more and now he is within a few inches of losing his nose as the blender catches strands of his hair.
In a desperation move Diamond swings his leg back and kicks Kirsta square in her lady parts. Kirsta goes down in a heap and Diamond rips the blender out of the socket and tosses it across the room…relieved that nothing more was done damage wise to himself.
But this is HOW and he let his guard down for two seconds too long as out of the corner of his eye he sees something moving toward him and he is barely able to recognize the microwave coming at his head.
He is unable to duck as David Black drives the microwave into the side of Diamond’s head. Frantically Black turns towards Krista and Irish whips her onto the stove and looks up and sees a pan hanging and grabs it and swings it down in one motion across the face of Kirsta knocking her out cold while lying on the open range stove.
Smiling, Black turns all the knobs to HIGH HEAT and then turns back towards Diamond just as we cut back to the Solitary wing where something big just went down.
We see Professor Keller and Scott Stevens literally lying on top of Kostoff with Boettcher about to make the count.
The feed from HOTv goes into split screen as we see Black covering Diamond in the kitchen, and Keller and Stevens covering Kostoff in Solitary…
1……………….
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: Christopher Diamond and Kostoff have been eliminated!!! Kostoff never had a chance…it’s like he was playing a game on his phone while everyone else had Ipads.
Benny Newell: And that phone is probably a flip phone..lets be honest.
Joe Hoffman: Well folks we are down to Keller and Stevens in solitary….Kirsta and Black in the kitchen and somewhere Sektor is with Lee…and where is Michael?
As if on cue…well let’s be honest…it’s right on fucking cue….we cut the chapel of the prison.
The HOTv feed is focused in on a cross in the middle of the chapel. Like a scene from years ago the cross is upside down. There is nothing holy about the scene we are being shown as we see all the wrestlers who were guards earlier in the show standing around the cross. In front of them leading the presentation is Lee Best who has John Sektor at his side.
“The reason I signed PWX, NEW, Warped, and SHOOT to High Octane Television is because of the strong leadership within each company. Each company is not held back by censors or boundaries. They are who they are and their fans love them for it. Together we will be the epicenter of all those diehard wrestling fans who want to be entertained each and every week. For awhile there was doubt about the leadership in HOW. Well I have you were tonight…as my guests…to show you personally that I am the ONLY person that runs this company..and to prove a point…..I give you my son.”
The camera pans up to show Michael Lee Best as the one that is literally nailed to the cross. He is out cold.
“This is my Son…this is Michael. He has been to the top of the mountain several times and has most recently been to the bottom of the valley….all because I was not here to provide the leadership and fatherly advice that he needed. Right now in other parts of this prison there is a war going on for a Championship Belt. That war will be won by John Sektor who now stands to my right. That is why this moment…this EXACT moment is why you are here. “
Lee smiles at John and pats the top of his head and then suddenly thrusts his arm up towards the cross and his Son and drives a spear into his rib cage and as he pulls it out blood flows to the ground.
“I will do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to make sure HOW survives. I will do anything and everything to make sure HOTv survives. Your owners have been given a boatload of money to invest back into your companies. All in exchange for the rights to your programming....but this…..THIS…”
Lee points at his SON.
“…is to show each and everyone of you that I will what needs to be done to prove I am back in charge of HOW and we are not going anywhere. Michael is the sacrificial lamb tonight and John will be the one that ascends to the throne..and trust me..just cause I keep stating that doesn’t mean he will lose..there is no red herrings….tonight I prove a point to EVERYONE.”
Everyone focuses in on Mike bleeding out as we see Lee and John smiling.
“Now…I have one last thing for you all to do……John…….do what you are meant to do and go win the match……me and the boys here got one more thing to do.”
John nods as the feed cuts away but not before we see Mike open his eyes.
The feed cuts back to Solitary where Stevens and Keller are going toe to toe. Keller has busted Stevens open once again and he is now wearing the proverbial crimson mask.
Keller is not off any better as he is basically in shock as his skin is charred on part of his neck and cheek.
The men are brawling, exchanging tired right hands, when suddenly the door is opened up. Both men look untrustingly towards the opened door but then slowly make their way towards the exit.
Joe Hoffman: You gotta feel for these two. They basically just want….NEED…to get out of this wing. After spending darn near two weeks in the cell and then to be released and jumped….who can blame them?
Benny Newell: Huh what? Sorry…was watching Black take a cheese grater to Kirsta’s tits….seriously…look.
The HOTv feed cuts back to the kitchen where we see David Black literally doing what Benny just said….rubbing a cheese grater across the now exposed left breast of Kirsta.
She is screaming…no howling…in pain as blood begins to flow down the contours of her body. Black rips open her jumpsuit even further exposing Kirsta fully.
David pauses, realizing what he is doing, but then continues anyway as he begins working on her right breast….fully intending for her to scream out SHE QUITS….but she doesn’t not quit.
Instead her left hand is searching on the ground for something..anything….and she finds it. The frying pan she used earlier.
She brings it up and nails Black in the head with it……but there is no effect. Black is zoned completely out….NEEDING Kirsta to tap out…..and again she swings…and this time Black falls back on his ass and looks at Kirsta who swings one more time and Black is able to scoot back on the concrete just quick enough to avoid a full blow from the frying pan.
Kirsta jumps to her feet and looks down at her mangled nipples….and then smiles. She pulls her arms out of the jumpsuit and ties the arms around her waist to keep the jumpsuit up …but by doing so she is fully exposed from the waist up.
She tosses the frying pan back and forth between her left and right hands like she is Serena Williams…waiting….BEGGING…for Black to get up and come at her.
WHACK
Suddenly she is knocked to the ground as we see Sektor standing over her. Kirsta turns towards Sektor and sees that he used a crucifix to blindside her.
“What the fuck Sek?”
Sektor pounces on her and stabs her in the leg with the crucifix and pushes it deep inside her leg. She sits up and screams at Sektor to stop but he just growls at Kirsta as he plunges the crucifix deeper into her leg causing blood to shoot out from the wound.
Kirsta finally falls backwards and passes out.
Nigel Lette has no choice but to officially eliminate Kirsta.
Joe Hoffman: Kirsta Lewis has been eliminated and I have no words to say right now…
But there is no time to elaborate as guards rush into the kitchen and grab both Black and Sektor.
Joe Hoffman: Folks I am being told that the final four….Keller, Stevens, Black and Sektor are being led to the final setting for tonight’s match. I have no idea where they are being led to but give us a few moments and we will be right back…
The feed cuts to black…..and as the final four are being led to wherever they need to be led to…..we cut back to the chapel.
We cut back to the chapel where we see crewmen lowering the upside down cross to the floor. Medics have rushed in and are working on Michael. Lee and the rest of his guests are nowhere to be seen. Michael is very pale and there is barely a pulse.
But he is alive.
As the medics put him on a stretcher there is a loud banging noise. Everyone looks and sees a dark figure standing at the entrance.
As he begins to walk towards the medics they see who he is and they quickly run to the back room of the chapel.
The figure stops next to the stretcher and places his left hand on the right shoulder of Michael and then lowers himself down to him and whispers.
“You will die…but not tonight…and not at the hands of Lee.”
With that the man smiles and grabs the back of the stretcher and begins pushing it towards the exit of the chapel.
As he reaches the exit he pauses and turns…revealing his face just long enough so we figure out who it is….before disappearing with the body of the Son of God.
Shane Reynolds
The feed now cuts to another part of the prison where we see the final four wrestlers handcuffed together by a long chain. There are several legit prison guards standing behind them. As the camera pans back we see exactly where we are.
The Infirmary
Joe Hoffman: What a night…and to think we only have had one match tonight. It all will end here ..in the Alcatraz Infirmary where some famous scenes have taken place…Aceldama anyone?
Benny Newell: Sektor. That is all.
Matt Boettcher and Joel Hortega are the only refs in the room. With all four men bound together there is not going to be the huge chaos that there was earlier.
Suddenly the door to the infirmary opens and in walks Lee Best.
“Here are the simple rules boys. Pin or submit the other three and you win. Right now you are all handcuffed to each other. There are three handcuff keys. They are hidden here in this room. Find a key..unlock yourself….win the match basically after that….get it..got it …good?”
Lee exits stage left just as quick as he entered and Boettcher motions for the guards to let the men go as the match is now officially resumed.
Keller immediately wraps part of the chain around the neck of Black as Sektor and Stevens begin exchanging elbows and blows to the head.
The four men are almost playing a tug of war with each other as they just do not have enough space to execute any sort of move to gain an advantage. Throwing little rabbit punches goes only so far and quickly all four men are focused on finding the keys to the handcuffs instead of trying to bruise their competitors.
It is then that Keller spots the keys….but the camera does not pick them up at all.
Joe Hoffman: Wait….seriously??
The camera pans over to a table on the other side of the room and we see the imprint of three keys just under the skin of what appears to be a cadaver.
To get that location all four have to work together.
Benny Newell: This is like some shitty B rated horror flick! I LOVE IT!!
Keller has no choice to point out the keys to the other three and together all four men stand up and walk towards the cadaver and its there that it’s not just any cadaver..
Joe Hoffman: OH MY GOD!!!!
What Keller thought was the bicep of an adult was really a right leg…….the right leg of a small child.
Keller pulls the sheet back and everyone stares in shock to see that it is literally maybe a six month old baby.
Joe Hoffman: I cannot watch this shit….
Benny Newell: Joe cussed!!
Black, Stevens and Sektor all turn their heads away at the sight of the deceased baby. But not Keller.
Keller sees the scalpel on the table and reaches for it and cuts into the baby’s leg and blood trickles out..Signaling that this baby has not been dead for long.
Keller pulls the key out and unlocks himself and turns towards the other three who are just staring at him.
Keller swings the scalpel at the men but each duck out of the way and soon enough it’s a three on one affair.
Keller has the upper hand as he uses his quick thinking to his advantage as he delivers blow after blow to each of the men while moving rapidly causing them men to almost trip over themselves.
Black catches Keller with a solid right hand that sends Keller down to the ground. Keller scoots back and begins looking for weapons as the other three struggles to move towards Keller…none wanting to reach into the baby and get the other keys.
Keller is seen smiling as he sees a table full of needles. Each labeled with what drug is in them…and the one that Keller has says Heroin.
Keller turns and sees the men struggling and he seizes the opportunity and rushes at Sektor….and drives the needle deep into the flesh.
The sounds of Joe and Benny throwing up can be heard audibly on the feed as we see the needle sticking out of the throat of the deceased baby.
Sektor, who picked up the baby as a reflex to block the needle now swings the dead baby at Keller, knocking the World Champion down to the ground. Sektor realizing what he just did, drops the baby to the floor and the resounding thud can be heard.
Stevens turns and throws up as Black and Sektor look to the ground and see that the remaining keys have been dislodged from Keller’s previous cut to the baby’s leg.
Black and Sektor fall to their knees and their hands are covered in the blood from the baby as they both reach and pick up separate keys. As they quickly unlock themselves Black and Sektor turn towards the World Champion who is staggering towards the door.
Sektor is in the lead to catch Keller but just as he does Keller spins around, uses Sektors momentum against himself and whips Sektor face first into the wall. As the ICON Champion bounces off Keller nails him with his Centrifugal Elbow without the cartwheel.
Because the full force of the move was not there Keller does not go for the cover but instead taunts Sektor.
This costs him as he is spun around and nailed by Scott Stevens and his Toxic Sting stunner. Stevens, still handcuffed to the chain, struggles to go for the cover but the only person that can stop him, Black, doesn’t.
Stevens with the cover on Keller…
1……..
2………
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: The World Champion has been eliminated!!!!
Stevens stands to his feet and just as he does he is met by David Black nailing him with his Blackout finisher.
Now it is David Black who covers the LSD Champion….
1………………….
2………………….
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Joe Hoffman: And finally.and officially…..Scott Stevens has been eliminated as well. We are down to two….David Black and John Sektor!
Black rolls off Stevens and looks at Sektor who is slowly getting to his feet. Sektor staggers towards Black who literally jumps in the air…grabs Sektor by the back of the neck, folds his knees up….
Then crashes to the ground as Sektor blocks the Codebreaker like finishing move of Black.
David hits his head hard on the cold concrete and blood begins to trickle along the floor as Black looks legit concussed.
Sektor falls on top of him and Boettcher makes the count.
1………………
2……………..
KICKOUT by Black.
Sektor grabs Black by the ears and bounces his head off the concrete and covers again.
1…………….
2………………….
KICKOUT AGAIN by Black.
Frustrated Sektor rolls of Black and pulls himself up via the nearest table and on this table is an AED device.
Sektor, smiling, pulls the foil off the AED with full intentions of shocking and BURNING Black.
He turns and walks right into a desperation Blackout from the former World Champion.
Sektor is out cold on the ground as a very concussed Black is also lying on his back…trying to gather himself.
Slowly and surely he does and he slings an arm over onto the chest of Sektor and makes the cover.
1…………………………..
2…………………………..
KICKOUT BY SEKTOR…KICKOUT BY SEKTOR!!!!
Both men are lying prone on the floor as they struggle to continue. Sektor looks at the AED and smirks before placing the pads on his own chest and delivers a shock to his own system.
He screams out in pain as the voltage burns his chest but he is quick to his feet and pulls Black up slowly and nails the main with a perfect piledriver onto the concrete….obviously targeting the head.
Sektor covers again as blood is pouring out of the head of Black now.
1………………
KICKOUT!
Joe Hoffman: Wow what a Kickout by Black there….
Sektor looks stunned at Black but then he sees the needle sticking out of the mans bicep.
Adrenaline.
Black obviously snagged a needle that had fallen to the ground and seized the opportunity.
Both men are quick to their feet and now are in exchanging right hands…literal bombs to the head.
Sektor gains the upper hand finally as the blows to the head are proving too much for Black in the long run.
Black staggers backwards and as he does Sektor charges and spears the man thru the doors of the infirmary causing the men to land in the hallway.
The cameraman and Boettcher run outside to follow the action and we see Black rolling Sektor over slowly as he holds his ribs in pain.
It is then that we see why he has the advantage as a replay is shown on HOTv of Black literally putting his knees up just in time to deliver a devastating Blackout to Sektor…this time using all of the momentum from Sektor to deliver the fatal blow.
Black covers as Boettcher counts.
1……………..
2………………..
3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boettcher raises the arm of Black as medics rush to the scene to care for both men.
The announcers are not even given a chance to say anything as the HOTv feed fades out to the Prison Yard where a literal riot has just broken out as its obvious Lee pulled the plug on any lingering image of Black defeating Sektor.
As we cut to the Prison Yard and as Rumble at the Rock feed ends we see all the wrestlers from NEW, SHOOT, WARPED, and PWX literally brawling with everyone from HOW as the HOTv logo comes on everyones screen.
