[FWF]

LEGEND: Welcome to Monday Night Rampage.

UCW plays as Marcus Brody makes his way on stage nodding his head. He waits for a while and out steps Predator. He twirls halfway down the ramp before entering the ring.

CHARLES: The following round one Jealousy tournament match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first …lead to the ring by Marcus Brody …from the Eyrie, England …The Predator!

LEGEND: Look at that cocky grin.

CHARLES: And his opponent …from New York, New York …weighing in at 212 pounds …Richo!

Richo’s music plays, but fails to enter. The referee looks puzzled. He starts to count. …1 …2 …3 …4 …5.

LEGEND: If he gets to ten, Richo has lost the match.

…6 …7 …8. The screen shows the car park of the arena where Richo is stood leaning against a red sports car.

RICHO: Hey, Predator. I thought we could make this interesting. I thought a Parking Lot Brawl match would be much more interesting.

BRIGGS: Oh my …a parking lot brawl match.

PREDATOR: It’s on

RICHO: Oh and seeing as you like bringing UCW along, I brought a couple of my friends too.

The camera zooms out revealing Hunter and Virus stood beside him.

RICHO: This is Virus. And this is Hunter. And we are the nWt.

Predator, Brody and the referee all run backstage. The run down the hallway until they come to the car park doorway. Predator takes a deep breath and opens the door. He spots Richo. He then runs towards him, only to get drop-toe-held for his trouble. Richo picks him up. He then slams his head onto the bonnet of a black mini. Richo then kicks Predator in his stomach. He tries to get the Badigree, but Predator reverses it, throwing Richo over landing on top of the red sports car.

LEGEND: The winner of this match will advance to the quarter-finals. Can Richo stop Predator?

Predator grabs hold of Richo. He then pushes him into Marcus Brody, who suplexes him onto the car. Virus and Hunter run over and start the attack on Predator and Brody. A limo pulls up.

BRIGGS: A limo?

LEGEND: Who’s in it?

BRIGGS: I dunno Legend, but I have a pretty good idea.

The camera zooms into one side of the white limo …a side bearing the UCW logo.

BRIGGS: I guessed correctly.

LEGEND: UCW are here.

A limo door opens and out steps “Top Dog” Nick W and Oz Van Dam who then take out nWt. Predator smashes Richo’s head through a window, which causes him to bleed. Predator then hits an armbreaker-stunner for the cover. …1 …2 …3.

CHARLES: Here is your winner and advancing into the next round …The Predator!

LEGEND: Predator moves up in the tournament, after UCW make their appearance again. You saw what happened last week to The DDT Kid.

BRIGGS: Yes we did. They broke his leg, Legend!

The camera cuts to the locker room where Alan Foulds is sat on the bench, staring at his title. Linda Miles is stood outside. Alan gets up and walks out of the door.

MYLES: Could I have a word?

FOULDS: Make it quick

MYLES: Could I please have your thoughts on the Jealousy tournament?

FOULDS: What’s there to think about? The winner will face me …and lose to me at Bloodthirst in two months time. It could be Predator, it could be Chris Knite …It doesn’t matter

MYLES: Speaking of Predator …how do you feel about UCW?

FOULDS: Why would I care? They’re not doing me any harm. But if they did anything to FWF …the company that I’m representing …then I’d care. This interview is over.

LEGEND: Don't go away folks, we'll be right back.

[FWF]

LEGEND: We are back on Rampage and steel chairs are everywhere.

CHARLES: The following chairs only match scheduled is for one fall. Introducing first …

Mike Power makes his way out wearing a black vest and pleather pants of the same colour.

CHARLES: …from Tampa, Florida …weighing in at 312 pounds …Mike Power!

BRIGGS: Without the aid of Chris Knite.

CHARLES: And his opponent...

A huge display of pyro erupts at the titontron. Arn Anderson’s original Horseman theme plays as Ernest Bethea walks out with his belt firmly placed on his shoulder. The crowd are cheering.

CHARLES: …from New York City …weighing in at 320 pounds …he is one half of the FWF Tag Team champions …Ernest “The Beast” Bethea!

LEGEND: And Ernest Bethea without the aid of Captain Joe Stall.

BRIGGS: Look at these two! They're huge

LEGEND: They're so similar in size and weight.

The bell rings. Straight away Mike runs to the nearest chair. As he raises it he is kicked in the stomach by Bethea. Mike then kicks Bethea and follows up by a headlock. Bethea elbows Mike's stomach trying to free himself. He does it a second time to loosen the grip, before throwing him off into the ropes. Mike runs back with a shoulder tackle, knocking Bethea down.

LEGEND: The power behind that tackle ...managing to knock down the Beast.

Mike runs against the ropes. Bethea sleeps, trying to trip Mike over, but Mike jumps over Bethea. Bethea gets up and leapfrogs Mike and then hits a hiptoss onto a steel chair. Mike rolls out of the ring. Mike grabs one of the chairs laid on the outside. He tries to bring it back into the ring. As he is about to step through the ropes, Bethea dropkicks the chair, which hits Mike Power and knocks him off the apron. Bethea climbs out of the ring. He picks Mike up and slams his head onto the announcers table. Bethea tries to Irish-whip Mike into the steel steps, but Mike reverses it and throws Bethea.

BRIGGS: Bethea hit that steel hard!

Mike grabs a chair. He opens it out and sits on it. Bethea gets up. As he walks towards Mike, Mike gets up and big boots Bethea back down.

BRIGGS: Whoah. Mike could win this.

Mike slams Bethea's head on the ring apron. He then rolls him into the ring. Bethea crawls to the other side of the ring, and opens out a chair, whilst he's still on the mat. Mike climbs through the ropes and runs towards Bethea, but Bethea drop-toe-holds Mike, who's head crashes down onto the opened chair.

LEGEND: I believe that was out of desperation.

BRIGGS: Both men are down

…1 …2 …3 …4 …5 …6. Both men get to their feet, Mike a little before Bethea. He walks over to Bethea and grabs his head. Bethea breaks out. He delivers an open hand shot to Mike, and another, and a third. He then knocks him down with a clothesline. Mike quickly gets up and gets another clothesline. Mike quickly gets up again. Bethea kicks him in the stomach. He then gives him a suplex. Mike Power crawls into the corner. Bethea raises his arms, the crowd are chanting his name.

LEGEND: The former World Heavyweight Champion is really taking it to him.

He charges towards Mike, but Mike lifts his boot. Mike jumps up to the second rope. Bethea turns around from the boot and gets a double-axe-handle. Mike rolls out of the ring and walks over to the ring announcer, Phil Charles, who is minding Bethea's tag belt. Mike smiles, then slaps Charles and takes the belt. He stares at it with a smirk on his face.

LEGEND: This match is a chairs only match ...if Power uses that belt, he will be disqualified.

Bethea rushes out of the ring. He hits Mike in the back of the head, making him drop the belt. Bethea and the referee check on Charles. Mike comes up behind Bethea, and knees him in the back. He then picks Bethea up into the fireman's carry

LEGEND: Mike Power, trying to get a TKO.

BRIGGS: If he hits this, it's all over.

Bethea manages to reverse it into a DDT. He then walks over to his belt and raises it high. The crowd cheer. He drops the belt as Mike slowly crawls to his feet. Bethea toe kicks him. He raises Mike into a powerbomb position.

BRIGGS: The strength in Ernest Bethea

LEGEND: Mike Power over 300 pounds, is being lifted high in the air.

Bethea slams Mike down onto a steel chair with the Bethea Bomb and goes straight into the cover. …1 …2 ...3. The bell sounds.

CHARLES: The winner of the match …Ernest “The Beast” Bethea!

As Bethea is celebrating, “Bring Me to Life” by Evanescence plays. With a microphone in hand, Chris Knite enters the arena.

KNITE: Enjoy your victory, Bethea, but I’ve got news for you… you won’t be holding that title for much longer. I’ve just been from the Commissioner’s office and he has informed me that at FWF Code Red, it will be The Real Deal, Ernest Bethea and Joe Stall …versus The Army, Mike Power and “The Saviour” Chris Knite!

LEGEND: What an announcement.

KNITE: And it will be for the FWF Tag Team Championships!

LEGEND: We’re gonna have to take a short break, but we will be back with our main event.

[FWF]

LEGEND: Welcome back to Rampage. It is now time for our main event.

BRIGGS: And two things are on the line.

LEGEND: The Hardcore belt is up for grabs …and …the winner will advance the second round of the Jealousy tournament.

”I’ll Whoop Yo’ Head” by 50 Cent plays. With the crowd booing, Dynamite D enters the arena. He walks down the ramp and gets into the ring where he is handed a microphone.

DYNAMITE: Whenever I come here in FWF, you people boo. It distracts me and it causes me to lose.

BRIGGS: Yeah… That’s why you lose…

DYNAMITE: But not anymore. At Code Red, I am in a match for the Cruiserweight Championship. And when I win… I’m taking it back to UCW!

LEGEND: Dynamite D has joined UCW!?

BRIGGS: Meh…

CHARLES: The following round one Jealousy tournament match is a hardcore match to one fall and is for the Fantasy Wrestling Federation Hardcore Championship! Introducing first…

”Welcome to the Jungle” by Guns N’ Roses plays. Pain rides out on his motorcycle to a huge ovation. He rides down the ramp before getting off and climbing into the ring where he stares down D.

CHARLES: …from New York City …weighing in at 210 pounds …he is the FWF Hardcore Champion …Pain!

BRIGGS: D looks scared, Legend.

LEGEND: Luckily for him, he’s not Pain’s opponent.

Suddenly, Predator and Brody enter through the crowd. Brody grabs Pain from behind and hits him with the German Suplex. All three men begin to stomp away at him.

LEGEND: No! UCW are doing to Pain what they did to Dan Taylor!

Brody and D pick Pain up. Predator then bounces off the ropes before connecting with the Wing Attack. Brody makes the cover. …1 …2 …3. The bell sounds.

CHARLES: Here is your winner …and new FWF Hardcore Champion …Marcus Brody!

LEGEND: No!

BRIGGS: This is what they set out to do, Legend. They said they were gonna start at the bottom until they have every title in FWF.

LEGEND: And if it’s three on one in every match, they might just do it.

BRIGGS: Marcus Brody advances to the quarterfinal of Jealousy. Do you think he could be World Heavyweight Champion as well?

LEGEND: I don’t know, TB.

BRIGGS: And will Dynamite D be Cruiserweight Champion?

LEGEND: There’s only one way to find out. Keep watching FWF, folks… Stampede TV’s number one show. We will see you next week for Rampage.

BRIGGS: Goodnight!
