The show starts with the usual music from Manowar playing as the fireworks light the arena and the fans are cheering loudly as they are holding signs in the air. The mood changes when Goth’s music hits and the owner of the AWA walks out to the arena.

Duff: Here we go!!! The owner of the AWA is here!!!

Goth looks around and grins as he puts the microphone to his lips

Goth: I’m not going to discuss the whole fact that I’m going to destroy the hopes and dreams of one Canis next week. No, there has something that got to my attention this week that there is a rumor going around that one individual is not who he thinks he is.

Tex: What is he talking about?

Duff: Shush!! I want to hear this!!

Goth: Tonight I will approach this man and he and I will have a word or two… And I am going to reveal his identity soon as I will once again destroy his hopes and dreams if this is the man that I think he is…. You can count on that!!

Goth walks off as the shot turns to a commercial break

We see Faust walking backstage, wearing his wrestling a black tank top, as opposed to his usual white. Faust walks up to Jason Stevens who is on the phone to someone having a heated argument, Faust waits for him to hang up before talking.

Faust: Jason, it would seem we are suppose to become a tag team whether we like it or not. You beat the big giant, I beat a cowardly Lion. Now when the time comes I just hope you will be able to hold your end of the team up...

JS: Sorry kid, no time for autographs......

Carrie, who is with Jason "The Sensation" Stevens, whispers in his ear.

JS: Oh sorry Faust, didn’t recognize you for a second there, hey if we’re going to make this team work then we’re going to need to prepare for our first match as a team.

Faust casually smiles, then stops dead in the middle of it.

Faust: We both have matches tonight, so let's try to make a point of winning them. Then we can see how we can prepare as a team.

Faust walks away as the scene cuts to another part of the arena.

The camera cuts back stage and we can see the man known as "The Maverick" Andy Martindale. The camera zooms in on Maverick who is stood outside his locker room with Page Harris. He is preparing for what is set to be a brutal triple threat for the number one contendership for the AWA Television Championship. This match is against Jason "The Sensation" Stevens and the former Television Champion, Mr. X. Andy looks up at the camera with a look of confidence that can just be seen in his eyes through his mask as he speaks.

Page: Andy, can I get your thoughts on your match up tonight for the opportunity to face the Television Champion one more time.

Maverick: Ok, Page, I've said all week long that after tonight is over, I will be named the new number one contender for the Television Championship and I will then go on to the grandest stage of them all, WrestleQuest, to face The Masked Terror once again. Only this time, it'll turn out a little differently. Mr. X screwed me out of that championship a couple of weeks ago when he go involved in my match, and it cost me the Television Championship, so tonight isn't just about winning the match and getting my shot back, it's about getting a little bit of retribution for what Mr. X did a couple of weeks ago. He's been sticking his nose in matches and getting involved ever since he lost the TV Title to The Masked Terror, well enough is enough, tonight, I finally put that Egotistical maniac out of his misery.

Page: You seem condfident. You defeated Jason Stevens a few weeks ago, but why are you so sure that you can beat Mr. X?

Maverick: Well Page, it's like this. Mr. X has gotten to the stage where he's become obsessed with The Maske Terror. As far as he's concerned, nothing else matters to him. He's lost all focus of everything that is going on around him, and for that reason, he's out! It's as simple as that.

Page: Well what about his mask that you're wearing? When are we going to see the real Andy Martindale?

Maverick: Page, when this mask comes off, the AWA will not hear from "Andy Martindale" ever again. I know in my mind when I will reveal my identity, and it will be soon, I'm just waiting for the moment to arrive. When it does, it'll rock the foundation of the AWA like never before! Now, if you don't mind Page, I've got a match to attend to!

Martindale walks away from Page Harris and towards the ringside area as the scene switches back to Tex and Duff for the triple threat match.

Tex: Well there you have it Duff, a very confident Andy Martindale. He truly believes that he'll walk away from this triple threat match against Jason Stevens and Mr. X as the new number one contender for the Television Championship!

Duff: I don't know Tex, Jason Stevens is going to give him and Mr. X a run for their money, but I'm going to have to go with Mr. X on this one. His outfit doesn't make him look like a deranged power ranger!

Vs.

Vs.

TEX Let’s send it up to Stormy for the introductions!

STORMY: Our next match tonight is a triple threat match set for one fall to determine the number one contender for the AWA Television Championship!

The lights begin to fade, going practically to nothing before the music, “Beyond the Pale” by Exodus, hits. Emerging from behind the curtain is none other then Jason “The Sensation” Stevens. The crowd is booing and this brings a smile to his face as he starts walking down the ramp to the ring. When only a short walk to the ring remains he runs the rest of the way jumping up onto the apron. A look to the left, then the right before bending over to enter the ring between the middle and top ropes. Once in the ring, he goes to the right far corner, jumping onto the middle rope to flip off the fans and then awaits the appearance of his competitors for the evening..

STORMY: Ladies and gentlemen, help me welcome to you tonight, hailing from Las Vegas, Nevada and weighing in at 175 pounds…Jason “The Sensation” Stevens!

DUFF: I’ve been pretty impressed by Jason these last few weeks, but he’s got a tall task ahead of him here tonight.

TEX After all the harsh words this week, he’d best be ready. For that matter, however, so should his opponents.

Suddenly Megadeth's "Symphony of Destruction" hits the PA as a pyro blasts up from centre stage. The arena lights begin to glow. The fans in the arena give a mixed reaction, some booing while others cheer as the man known as Andy "Maverick" Martindale appears from the entrance. He stops at the top of the ramp, looks at the crowd from left to right then runs down the ramp and then slides into ring under the bottom rope. He walks over to the corner of the ring, grabs the top rope and climbs to the second rope, raising his left arm. The lights return back to normal and the music starts to fade out as Maverick gets pumped up for his match.

STORMY: From Toronto, Ontario, Canada…weighing in at 224 pounds…here is the “Maverick”…Andy Martindale!

TEX Andy has made it clear just how hungry he is to get another shot at the title, and he looks to be in great shape tonight.

STORMY: And the final competitor…

The whisper of "I can feel it" strikes through the crowd. The lights go down, red smoke begins to build in the entrance way as the music gets louder. When the music blasts Mr. X bursts through the smoke into the center of the entrance way. He crosses his arms in an "X" at the top. There is a mixed reaction as he makes his way down the ramp. Mr. X jumps from the floor to the ring apron and quickly goes through the ropes. He goes from corner to corner and raises his "X" sign as the music dies and the lights return he goes into his corner to prepare for the match.

STORMY: …from Parts Unknown and weighing in at 245 pounds, here is “The Mysterious Man of Mischief”…Mr. X!

DUFF: The Masked Terror’s held on to the TV title through sheer luck so far but I don’t think he’s destined to hold that gold for long. His luck has to run out sooner or later.

TEX It has nothing to do with luck, Duff. He earned the title by defeating Mr. X right in the middle of the ring and he’s turned back every challenge since then. How is that luck?

DUFF: You see it your way, I’ll see it mine.

The bell to start the match sounds, and the three men look between one another…Andy turning to Jason, Mr.X staring at Andy, Jason almost glaring at Mr.X…and then Jason rushes in, bullying Mr.X into the corner with a shoulder to the stomach, driving that shoulder a few more times into the midsection to knock the wind out of the former Television champion. Andy springs into action after a moment of observation and grabs Jason by the hair, pulling him away and throwing him to the mat before setting upon Mr.X himself with a series of chops to the chest.

The hurled-aside Jason gets to his feet however and waist-locks Andy from behind, then attempts a suplex. Andy blocks the move and reverses the waistlock to take Jason over with his own suplex while Mr.X still languishes in the corner. Jason was slow to get to his feet, and Andy was ready to rush him when he rises. The “Sensation” was ready, however, and turns the charge into a float-over neckbreaker before he turns back to Mr.X, charging him while he was still in the corner.

Unfortunately for him, however, he gets a boot to the face for his trouble, causing Jason to stagger back. Not one to give up, he attempts the move once again, but this time is met with both boots to the face from Mr. X. When Jason turns from the second impact, Mr.X bursts from the corner and lands a roaring elbow across the Sensation’s jaw, crumbling him down to the mat. Andy, up on his knees at this point, is greeted with a shining wizard by Mr.X and a pin attempt.

ONE…

TWO…

KICKOUT!

TEX So much for alliances of convenience! I expected these guys to work together but I don’t think any of these three are willing to put harsh words or past history aside for a win!

DUFF: Oh, I expect that, out of fear, Jason and Andy will double-team Mr. X. That is, if Mr. X doesn’t knock their heads off their shoulders first.

TEX Some impact from that spinning elbow and that shining wizard…Andy and Jason got too wrapped up in each other.

Staring down at his adversaries for a few moments, Mr. X goes to Andy first and pulls him up from the mat only to be greeted by a stiff forearm shiver to the jaw. It didn’t take a second for him to retaliate though, and soon the two were trading blows in the center of the ring. Mr. X got the better of the exchange and backed Andy towards the ropes. Jason comes in from behind at this point and attacks Mr. X with an axe handle blow, the impact knocking him into Andy, who goes through the ropes and to the floor.

With the advantage, Jason follows his assault with a scoop slam and a pair of elbow drops before going for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

KICKOUT.

Drawing Mr. X up to his feet, Jason drives a knee into his midsection and positions him for a powerbomb. No sooner than did he lift X up than did Mr. X grabs Jason by the head and drive him to the mat with a split-legged Facebuster! Now it was his turn to go for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

…but Andy makes it into the ring and breaks up the attempt by dragging Mr. X off by his foot, then goes for his own pin.

ONE…

TWO…

Mr. X responds, though, with the same brand of interference, leading to a face-off between him and Andy.

DUFF: With these two getting into each other’s face it gives Jason a chance to catch his breath!

While the two are face-to-face in the middle of the ring, Jason gets up to his feet and charges the both of them, only to have them move at the last minute and hurl him out of the ring!

As he lands unceremoniously on the floor, the two masked enemies once again come face to face, turning to look to opposing sides at the crowd, who sought some kind of explosion between the two. Apparently happy to oblige, Mr. X strikes first with a forearm to the jaw, which Andy returns, initiating another exchange. Once more getting the better of it, Mr. X strikes with a pair of knees to the stomach before positioning Andy for a double-knee strike. But as he goes airborne, Andy shoves him off and he crashes hard to the mat.

Mr. X rises fairly quickly, but Andy is ready for him with a vicious clothesline attempt. Ducking the move, Mr. X steps in with a Crash & Burn attempt out of nowhere…only to have Andy block the move and turn it into a vicious chokeslam. Wasting no time, Andy drops down on Mr. X for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

TH-

…but before the referee’s hand could come down, Jason, who’d pulled himself up onto the turnbuckles, leaps off and crashes down on Andy with an elbow, breaking it up.

DUFF: Way to keep the match going! That’s the trouble with these three-way matches…there’s always someone else around to muck things up.

TEX You have to take down both of them to have a hope of pinning one, and that’s no small task.

Mr. X is slow to rise, having taken almost the same amount of impact as Andy, whom Jason goes for now. A precision dropkick knocks Andy back down to the mat, and Jason mounts him to deliver a flurry of punches. Fighting his way out from under, Andy shoves Jason off and knocks him into Mr. X, who had pulled himself up by the ropes. Jason, only momentarily stunned, rushes in for a cross-body block against Andy, but is caught in mid-air, turned and hurled overhead with a fall-away slam that puts him on a direct crash course with Mr. X, knocking both out of the ring. Andy throws hiis hands up into the air as the crowd showers him with applause.

TEX He’d better not celebrate yet! As solid of a move as that was…

DUFF: Hold it…he’s gonna fly!

Andy takes a running start, hits the ropes for more momentum, and takes to the air. Sailing over the top rope, he lands…right in the arms of both opponents! A brief glance towards one another is given before Jason and Mr. X drive Andy back-first into the steel ring post with a thunderous crash! Before the assault can continue, though, Mr. X connects with a back kick to Jason’s stomach and follows it up with a snap suplex on the concrete floor. Andy, still arching his back from the pain of impact, is brought up as well and is also hit with a snap suplex that almost lands him on top of Jason.

Picking up Andy and rolling him back into the ring, Mr. X follows after him and takes a hold of his legs, looking out to the fans before stepping over Andy’s right leg, crossing the other, and turning him over into a sharpshooter. Sitting down deep now, Mr. X applies a heavy amount of pressure to the hold, and Andy tries to fight his way towards the ropes. From outside the ring, a groggy Jason regains his upright position and, seeing Andy near to the ropes, pushes the bottom one inward for the sake of allowing Andy to force the break rather than letting him tap.

TEX Odd way to get the hold off, but I suppose it’s better than just running at the masked man and facing retribution.

DUFF: It’s called intelligence and self-preservation, Tex. Would you like a dictionary?

TEX No, I’d like you to be quiet so I can enjoy the match.

Jason slips into the ring unnoticed and before Mr. X turns around, having been focusing on getting Andy up to his feet, he runs in and drives Mr. X to the mat with a bulldog, at the same time clotheslining Andy to the mat once again. Both opponents down, Jason chooses to stalk the former Television champion, looking for an opening to finish him off. As Mr. X gets to his feet, Jason draws his head back, hooks the waist of his tights, and flips him back with a wicked DDT.

TEX Holy crap! He spiked Mr. X right on his head!

Rolling into the pin, Jason hooks the far leg, his head nodding with the count.

ONE…

TWO…

THR…

…at the last moment, though, Andy throws himself onto the pin, breaking it up. Jason, infuriated, pulls Andy up to his feet and is rewarded with a sudden headbutt from the Maverick. Fighting like a crazed man now, Andy grabs Jason by the head, and drives it into his knee several times, causing Jason’s face to explode into a crimson mask. The blows stand Jason straight up and leaves him wide open for a vicious spear from Andy, who takes the chance to make a cover.

ONE…

TWO…

TH-KICKOUT!

DUFF: How in the hell did he kick out of that?! Andy hit him flush!

TEX The guy’s got guts to spare…but now Mr. X is getting up!

True enough; Mr. X was up and against the ropes, watching the two as he tries to regain his bearings. Andy attempts to Irish whip Jason into the ropes, but it is reversed and Jason follows him in with a stiff knee to the stomach. Taking a chance, Mr. X rushes the two and dropkicks Jason between the shoulders. His head collides with Andy’s, sending the latter out of the ring and to the floor. Stunned, Jason turns around right into a boot to the gut, followed by Mr. X setting him up for a stunning Mischiever, his version of the Kill Switch. Jason blocks the attempt however and manages to slip out of Mr. X’s hold and then goes for a front kick. Ducking under the attempt, Mr.X takes two steps back and when Jason turned around, Mr. X delivers a teeth-jarring Crash & Burn…

TEX: & DUFF: Crash and Burn…this one’s over!

The RKO seems to knock Jason out cold, and Mr. X pounces onto him for the cover.

ONE…

TWO…

Andy dives for the two to break up the pin, but is a moment too late…THREE!

The referee rises up, calls for the bell, and we have our new number one contender for the AWA Television title!

STORMY: The winner of the match…Mr.X!

Suddenly Goth’s music hits as the announcement has been made and the owner of the AWA walks out to the ring

Goth: Like I promised I would do earlier the show that I would reveal the man that I know that is a liar!!

Mr. X is staring at Goth as Martindale exits the ring

Goth: I see a man that is willing to do whatever he has to do to get his hands on the Television belt and you know what? That’s what is going to happen, are going to fight for it X…. at least that’s how I will call you for now until next week where you are going to be forced to rip off that mask and reveal to the world who you truly are… that is when you lose… and you know something? I’m sure as HELL that you are going to lose. Because just like last year… I will make you realize that I’m the power around here!!!! So people, do me a favor… get Jason off the canvas as he has a tag team match to prepare for next week… I got myself a contender for the TV title… I just hope you won’t coward your way out of taking off your mask… what you say X??

Goth walks away as Mr. X looks at the owner as the show goes to a commercial break.

Winner:

The scene switches to the back where we see Big Bad Casey. He is seen warming up for his standard match against Matthew Toddi. He sees the camera and gives a sinister looking smirk.

Casey: Matthew Toddi, I know that I said that I don’t care if I win or lose. I would obviously prefer to win, like anyone, but if I lose, it won’t be a big deal because I know that on this night, you are the better man. And after the match, win or lose, I will take care of some unfinished business.

Casey then decides to take a drink of water. After a moment, when he has quenched his thirst, he continues.

Casey: After I defeat the loser known as Matthew Toddi, I will be focusing my attention on the man who has been attacking me the last few weeks to get some revenge against that person, who last week I had found out to be John Irons, who thinks I am him, and he is me. All I have to say is that John Henry Irons, whom has been attacking me, has better watch his back.

Then the scene goes into airing the promos Big Bad Casey has done for the match in order. Then once the 3rd promo has finished, the scene changes as he walks out of the gym and towards the ring.

Vs.

Stormy: This match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Nashua, NH, weighing at 375 lbs………BIG BAD CASEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

As he walks to the ring, he goes through the different karate stances. He enters the ring by climbing over the top rope and then raises his hand in the air and growls at a distant camera. Pyro lights up from all four corners of the ring and then stops after a few times. Casey glances at the direction of the entrance ramp with a serious look on his face, awaiting his opponent.

Tex: You know, Duff, I don’t think Casey here is in the mood to be playing games tonight.

Duff: That’s because he isn’t getting his head into the game and has been losing for weeks! It’s really stupid that Goth is still letting him be here when he’s being nothing more but a body around here.

Tex: Oh will you shut up about that? Casey is just trying to do his best around here. Give him a break!

Duff: I’ll only do that once he actually starts to win around here for a change, Tex!

Stormy: Introducing his opponent, from Detroit, MI, weighing at 225 lbs…..MATTHEW TODDI!!!!!!!!!!

Toddi's theme hits as he is introduced and he walks out looks at the fans who are booing him and then he raises his hood over his head and places arms out to sides as red and white spark pyro comes out from above and the sides of him! He then walks and slides into the ring, takes another look at the fans raises his arms with one hand index finger and thumb up and other hand just index.He then teases throwing his hoodie to the crowd as he gives it to the announcer and warms up by pulling the ropes until the ring bell hits.

Duff: Now you see, Tex, that man is a winner!

Tex: Why? Just because he’s won a lot more matches?

Duff: That’s exactly my point! I have a feeling that Toddi is going to go to places that he never dreamed of if this keeps up!

Tex: Tell that to a guy like Casey, Duff, because I’m sure he’ll slap you hard on the chest and make you wish you said that stuff about him.

The bell finally rings and Big Bad Casey approaches his foe in stalking fashion as Matthew Toddi backs off. Casey goes for a right punch, but it was slow for Matthew Toddi to duck underneath and spin around the big man. Matthew then tries to strike down his bigger foe with a slew of kicks into the back of his ankles. Casey feels the pain, but not as much as he spins around and slaps Matthew Toddi hard on the chest as the crowd gasps. Matthew’s on the canvas, clutching his chest in pain and groaning loudly, but the big giant won’t have any of that. He walks over to his fallen foe and lands a sick elbow into the throat of Matthew! He then goes for a pin, but somehow, Matthew Toddi raises his arm up at the count of two. Big Show slowly stands up as his opponent as Toddi is trying to get his breath back. Big Show starts to drag him back with one leg, but Toddi was able to somehow push the big man away with his feet. Casey staggered back, but not as much as Toddi kipped up and then hammered at Casey’s chest with a dropkick. The big man feels the impact of the move, but doesn’t think much of it he tries to grab Toddi and go with a head butt, but Toddi evaded the grab and drove his knee into Casey’s face. The big man goes down and Matthew immediately goes for a cover, but Casey shoves him off at the count of two. Getting back to his feet, Matthew hits the ropes, comes back, and connects with a baseball slide kick, hitting Casey’s face once more. This angers the big beast, who finally rises onto his feet. Matthew goes for a Frankensteiner, but Casey is able to counter with a power bomb! Casey decides to stomp a vicious mudhole through him for a bit, then he picks him up and throws him into a corner on the upper-right side of the ring. He slaps Matthew’s chest hard, twice in a row, eliciting two loud gasps from the crowd. But Casey was slow in going for another chop, Matthew enabling to strike with a quick elbow to the face. That forces the big man to move back as Matthew ascends the rope and poses for the fans as they boo back at him. Casey turns out and wasn’t fast enough to duck the oncoming spinning elbow that is given to him by Matthew. Casey is down on one knee, but Matthew takes him by the neck and slams him to the pavement with a quick DDT. He rolls Casey onto his back and goes for the pin, but just as he was about to hit the count of three, Casey barely got the shoulder up!

Duff: See! He should have just stayed down instead of not giving up!

Tex: Well, he’s not giving up anytime soon, Duff! Sorry to see you disappointed!

Matthew gets on top of the giant and starts to slug him out with a few punches, but it doesn’t go far as a long arm snatches and his hand clutches Matthew’s throat. Casey is able to use his strength to bring him to the side and he slowly stands up. The crowd is in awe as the giant is at his full height, holding the smaller man in the air for a few moments. Then he slams him down to the canvas with a powerful chokeslam that temporarily shook the ring! Casey goes for the cover once more, but just as the referee was about to hit the mat for the third time, Matthew BARELY gets the shoulder up. That makes the big man mad as all hell, glaring at the referee. But the referee said that the count did not go in all the way. Casey stands up, then picks up Matthew and head butts his opponent. Matthew feels the pain as he staggers around, growling in pain. He turns around and unknowingly walks into a spinning spinebuster that leaves the younger, shorter man reeling! Casey stands up, admiring his work for a second before picking up the younger man and getting him back onto his feet. Casey then spins around and clutches Matthew around the waist. However, the execution of the move turns out to be a bit slow, plus the grasp on him wasn’t tight, which allows Matthew to get out of the hold and flip backward onto his feet. Then he takes advantage and slams his head into the canvas with a bulldog of his own. Matthew goes for another pin, but Casey kicks out at the count of two. Matthew is yelling at the referee to do his job after that slow count, but the referee shakes his head stubbornly. Dismissing the referee, Matthew raises Casey to a sitting position and goes for a sleeping choke from behind. Casey is feeling the effects and is now raising himself to his feet. He takes Matt by the back of the head and throws him over the shoulder, Matt hitting the canvas hard, the giant following it up with a fierce legdrop onto Matthew’s chest. Casey goes to punch Matthew in the face and soon, Matthew Toddi draws blood on his forehead. The referee, after seeing enough, tries to rush him and pull Casey off him and Casey gets up and spins around, stalking the referee as the referee is telling him that he’s only doing his job. The big giant turns around and receives a kick to the stomach as Matthew then plunges for the finish and tries to nail him with the diamond cutter. But Casey shoves him away and Matthew is able to land on his feet, despite losing his balance a little bit. Matthew is not happy with the blood that’s pouring down on his face, but ignores the pain as he sees Casey coming at him with a wild haymaker. Matthew Toddi dodges the move, once again kicks the gut, and finally nails his the diamond cutter, leaving Casey sprawling on the canvas. Matthew Toddi goes for the cover and the referee counts it. 1…..2…..3!!! In the last second after the referee slammed the mat for the third time, Casey kicked out. But by that time, it was too late as Matthew slowly rolled out of the ring, trying to cover up his forehead as he laughs while Casey is still on the canvas floor, shaking out the cobwebs.

Stormy: Here is your winner – MATTHEW TODDI!!!!!

Tex: Once again, Big Bad Casey ended up falling short. The effort is there, Duff, but somehow, his gameplan may need some new changes!

Duff: Well, I’ll agree with that Tex. Then again, if I was Goth, I would have fired him a long time ago. See! This just proves my point – even a guy like Toddi has NO trouble with Big Bad Casey here and if anything, his opponent at WQ II is not going to be ANYTHING like Toddi, that’s for sure!

Toddi continues to go up the entrance ramp as he points at his fallen foe and laughs gleefully as the referee helps up Casey. Casey stands there for a moment before grabbing a microphone while standing in the ring. He begins to address the crowd and the millions watching at home.

Casey: Most of you saw what John Irons did to me last week. For those of you living under a rock, he attacked me for no appearant reason. He believes himself to be me, and me to be him. Now first thing I want to say is that….

All of a sudden the titan tron comes to life as we see a deranged John Irons being held in a straight jacket. He is giggling and raving as one of Fang’s Men in Black are seen telling him that the camera is on. Big Bad John begins to speak, in the same crazy way he did last week.

Big Bad John: John Henry Irons! You big baboon! We have a match at WrestleQuest II that is going to be spectacular! Spectacular…..wonderful….he he heh ehehe hehe….so wonderful. I will show you who is the real big man around here. I am Big Bad John, John Henry Irons. I will crush you into little sprinkles. Do you like Ice Cream John Henry Irons? After I get through with you that is all you will be able to eat! Sprinkles! Lots and lots of sprinkles! Ha he he he he he he!!

Casey can be seen getting agitated in the ring. He addresses John Irons directly.

Casey: John, I think you owe me and the rest of the world an explanation on why you’ve been attacking me for some time now! On top of that, I want to know why you attacked my friend John too!

Big Bad John: Big Bad John doesn’t need a reason to attack you, other than you deserve it! But if you think I’m responsible for attacking you more than just last week then you are the one who is insane! HA AH HAHA! Little birdies tell me that you have gone off the deep end! Didn’t your mother ever tell you that it’s not safe to swim without floaties!? Cause without ‘em you won’t float! But don’t you worry your little head none! We all eventually float down here Johnny Boy! We all float!

Casey: So what you’re telling me, aside from your crazy talk is that you weren’t responsible for attacking me or my friend John in the past few weeks, but the only time you did was last week on Insomnia?

Big Bad John: CORRECT! And you take the lead! The category is Ancient Egyptian Mythology for 2000!

Casey: Whatever, I don’t believe you! You were behind the attacks and I know it! I don’t need proof, just proof enough that you and I will go head to head at WrestleQuest II. I’m gonna make you pay for what you did to my friend John and for all these idiots watching!

Big Bad John: Run, run, run, as fast as you can, John Henry Irons! Big Bad John is going to make both of our worlds collide! HE HE HE HE HE HEHA HAHAHA!

“Power and Glory” by Astral Doors hit’s the PA as the scene cuts to commercial for WrestleQuest II.

Winner:

Minutes before the triple threat match, Foxxy Dreams catches up with Modo on the arena stairs as he was about to ascend to the cheap seats for his usual entrance.

FOXXY: Modo, Modo! Just a moment of your time please...

MODO: Alright, but try to make it quick, I have a match.

FOXXY: Yes, I wanted to ask you about that match. It seems you are confident of winning it and heading to Wrestlequest II?

MODO: That's right Foxxy. I am not at all worried about the outcome of the match. I will get my revenge on Dmitri and I will also test Johnny Cashola's limits. The bottom line is, I am going to have to team up with one of these guys for the tag championships. Everyone knows I don't like either one, but I'm through agonizing over it. I don't have much of a choice in the matter. The only way I would avoid teaming with either man is to lose the match, and well...that's just not possible!

FOXXY: OK, thank you Modo, good luck!

Modo heads up the stairs as we go to ringside.

Vs.

Vs.

Stormy: The following triple threat match is scheduled for one fall. The two remaining men will form a new tag team for WrestleQuest II!!!!…

The arena strobe lights span the crowd in attendance as "BYOB" by System of a Down hits the speakers. The lights flicker on and off as Modo is caught by the cameras...he is atop the rafters among his fans. He descends down through the crowd as all the people cheer him on and clap his back. Modo looks around and takes in the atmosphere before jumping the guardrail and sliding into the ring. The arena fills with smoke as Modo enters the ring and the lights come back on. Modo is in the middle of the ring with his two index fingers in the air as the fans go wild as Stormy announces him into the ring.

Stormy: Introducing first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 245 pounds…MODO!!!!!

The fans continue to cheer until "The Phantom of the Opera" by Iron Maiden blares over the P.A. system. On the first climax of the song, Johnny runs out to a chorus of BOOS. Johnny "The Paycheck" Cashola runs down the ramp to ringside. At ringside, The Silverscreen Warrior pulls out a sharpie and signs the shirt of an unwilling fan, causing the tyke to tear up. The tears are followed by a slap from the brat's MILF. Cash rolls under the ropes and into the ring, BOOS still echoing. Modo is shown shaking his head real quick as Stormy announces AWA’s newest signee.

Stormy: And Modo’s opponents…first, making his AWA debut, from Hollywood, California, weighing in at 250 pounds…Johnny “The Paycheck” Cashola!!!!!!

Johnny yells that everyone should have their attention focused on him. His moment in the sun doesn’t last long though as “Legacy In Blood” by Vampiria interrupts the proceedings. The arena goes black and the Titan Tron slowly starts to drip blood until the name of Dmitri appears. Dmitri slowly walks out to the ring. He does not concern himself for the people that are either exchanging their hands to touch him or to throw their drinks at him. Dmitri gets into the ring not looking all that impressed with his two opponents as Stormy announces him to the ring.

Stormy: And finally, from Moscow, Russia, weighing in at 275 pounds…Dmitri…

The crowd is silenced but that aura quickly disappears as the lights all come back on. Dmitri is focused and ready as both Johnny and Modo stare at him. The bell rings and all three of them don’t mess around. They go right after one another as Modo goes to club Dmitri. Modo gets cut off though by the newcomer. Johnny slaps the taste out of Modo’s mouth and Modo goes to return fire. Dmitri however is one step ahead and suddenly runs at Modo, planting him down on to the canvas.

Tex: That’s the problem with these triple threat matches.

Duff: This is why they’re more entertaining than a boring old singles match. You never know who is going to come out smelling like a rose! Although in this case, two of them win and not one…

Tex: It will be interesting to find out which two of these three men will be teaming up with one another at WrestleQuest II next week. Modo and Dmitri have a BIG history that is very well noted.

Duff: Ya think?

Dmitri turns now to Cashola. Johnny looks ready for the vampire. Dmitri goes to clothesline Cashola to the mat, but Johnny is able to sidestep. He then sticks out his leg tripping Dmitri, bringing him to his knees right by one of the sets of ropes. Johnny grinds Dmitri’s face against the ropes for a bit until the referee assigned to the match begins a five count.

Tex: I’m assuming if there’s a DQ here that Modo and Dmitri…would end up tag teaming…

Duff: I doubt Johnny would just throw a chance away. Not when a win would gain him more money than he already has.

The referee counts…1…2…3…4… Johnny stops applying pressure to the bigger man and backs away, but right into the hands of Modo. The referee doesn’t even see Modo drop Johnny with a swinging neckbreaker, but does hear the thud against the canvas and snaps quickly around. Modo covers Johnny for the first pinfall attempt of the match. 1…2… Johnny kicks out.

Duff: Almost had Modo and Dmitri pairing up right there…

Modo gets right back to his feet just as Dmitri is recovering. Dmitri is seething and he glares right at Modo. Modo does the smart thing and backs away, leaving Johnny Cashola to take the brunt of Dmitri’s anger. Dmitri delivers a running high knee that catches Cashola right in the sweet spot. Cashola crumples to the canvas. Dmitri turns his focus to Modo. Modo doesn’t seem scared however, despite his past with the vampire. Modo runs right at Dmitri, but as soon as Modo leaps, Dmitri catches him in mid-air and goes for the Bite of Death. It connects and Dmitri goes for the pin. 1…2… Modo looks to be pinned, but the referee says that Modo’s shoulder is up off the canvas. A replay is shown on the titantron and that turns out to be the case. Dmitri slaps the mat, beginning to get angry with the referee. Cashola is beginning to come to now and sees Dmitri arguing with the ref. Cashola comes up from behind and hits the Travolta Tackle. He mounts Dmitri and begins punching him relentlessly with his fists. Modo slinks away and mends himself, bringing himself back up to his feet.

Tex: Looks like we’ll get to see what Cashola can do here. He’s really taking it to Dmitri!

Duff: We’ll see how long it lasts. I like the fire in this kid, but I’m keeping in mind that this IS his first match.

The referee yanks Johnny off of Dmitri and now Cashola shows his hatred towards the referee by giving him a glaring look. This is enough of a distraction for Dmitri to begin to get to his feet. However Modo sees this and runs at Dmitri, kneeing him right in the midsection. Cashola continues to argue with the referee and even goes to take a swing at him. The referee tells Cashola to get out of the ring. Cashola shakes his head just as he sees Modo drop Dmitri with Dmitri’s finishing move, the DDT and Bite of Death. The referee turns to continue his job and counts the fall. 1…2…3!!!!!!!

Tex: Well…look at that… Cashola did as he was told and he might just reap the benefits of it thanks to Modo cleaning up against Dmitri.

Duff: He didn’t get the pin, but I’m guessing the rookie gets the win here too…

Stormy: Here are your winners and forming a new tag team for WrestleQuest II…Modo and Johnny Cashola!!!!!

Modo looks down at Cashola who is still standing at ringside. He shakes his head and says a few words that can’t audibly be heard. Cashola backs away from the ring as “BYOB” by System of a Down plays on the P.A. system. Modo celebrates with the fans for a bit before he two slides out of the ring. The scene fades to a commercial break…

Winner:

The fights have been good tonight, but to that blue haired Crippled it doesn’t matter as he hobbles down on his cane to the ring. The Authority Director has business on his mind, and after struggling to roll into the ring he gets there and demands a mic which is brought to him quickly. Chaplin Graves has something to say.

Chaplin: Well it seems my role in the AWA as the Authority Director has finally come to pass, By the end of Wrestlequest 4 their will be brand new tag team something or another champions in the AWA, this is all fine and well…

He takes a second to pause then starts to continue after he collects his words.

Chaplin: What is not fine and well is changing the name of the titles, that ass in clown makeup that runs the place doesn’t have to authority to direct that change, and whatever Bozo has decided to name it is now null and void, the AWA tag team Champions will be Team Awesome, nothing more and nothing less, but there is more this now. I as the Authority Director came up with this idea, I am using my directive authority to name the match the Team Awesome Title will be decided it. Wait for it.

He lets a long pause run through the audience.

Chaplin: A reverse ladder title match!

And nobody knows what the hell Chaplin is talking about.

Chaplin: That’s right in order to win the Team Awesome Titles, you have to climb the title and pull down a ladder! But wait before you all start oohing, and aweing about that I have another huge announce to make, the winning team with get a 60 dollar coupon from A Merkin Made, Merkins made in America! Other than that, that is all!

And the fool just walks away like he owns the goddamn world.

Vs.

Duff: A Fork On A Pole match, huh? Guess that serves Hank Henry III right for using it on all those people!

Tex: You know, Hank Henry III is going to be finding a way to get to that fork and use it again, all legal you knw.

Duff: Well, yeah, but that’s only he’s able to climb up that post and snatch it for himself! I doubt Faust will be in a giving mood tonight to let him do that, Tex!

Tex: We’ll see about that tonight, won’t we, Duff?

The camera makes its way over to Stormy Canyon. A little off to her right is the fork that hangs on a pole that’s between six to seven inches. As the crowd goes nuts, the camera zooms in on the fork itself for a little bit, then zooms back and places its gaze back onto Stormy Canyon, who raises the microphone to her lips and speaks to the audience.

Stormy: Ladies and gentleman, this match is scheduled for one fall and it is a Fork On A Pole match! The rules are simple. If you’ll direct your attention to the upper-right corner of the ring, you will see a fork that’s secured on top of this post. The first man to ascend that post and get their hands on the fork will be the only man that’s legal to use the fork. The other man who uses another weapon or even uses the fork without being the first to lay hands on it will be automatically disqualified. If such an event does not happen, there is only way to win and that’s pinfall. No count outs, no submissions, no rope breaks!

As Stormy finishes stating the rules, the crowd goes nuts, already anticipating a great fight between the two! She once again raises the microphone to her lips and speaks!

Stormy: Introducing first, from Ellis Island, NY, weighing at 248 lbs…..HANK HENRY III!!!!!!!!!

Hank Henry comes out with his limping manager Chaplin Graves, they discuss the pro and cons of the upcoming match, if the mood suits them one of them play to the crowd. Hank Henry never takes his eye off the fork as he enters the ring while Chaplin takes his place at ringside and watches Hank closely as Hank now looks between the fork and at the entrance ramp.

Tex: You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure out exactly what Hank wants to do with a fork like that.

Duff: Faust is a man that’s quick on his feet though, so even if Hank gets the fork, he won’t be able to use it as much!

Stormy: Introducing his opponent, from Winnipeg, Canada, weighing at 218 lbs…..FAUST!!!!!!!!!!!

"Dream" by Dope hits the PA as the lights dim and a blue light flickers. Faust makes his way out onto the ramp where he gently jumps up and down looking at the crowd. He then makes his way down to the ring, slapping some fans hands on the way down. He slides into the ring, then runs to a turnbuckle and raises his arms, then jumps down and starts warming up his arms and neck as the lights go back to normal. He too also spies the fork every now and then, but chooses to focus on Hank Henry III, who is staring a black hole through him.

Duff: Faust and Hank Henry III just can’t take it any longer. Once that bell rings, they are going to be ripping each other apart!

Tex: It’s going to be interesting who will get the fork first, because that’s going to turn the tides against the opponent, in my opinion!

The bell rings and the two clash in the middle of the ring. Hank Henry III starts the charge with a few knees into Faust, but Faust breaks the grab and hits an improvised Enziguri that leaves Hank Henry staggering backwards to the post where the fork is hanging. Faust then goes for a Frankensteiner, but Hank Henry III recovered just in time to throw him into the canvas with a spinebuster! The back hurts Faust a lot, but as Hank Henry III tries to go for a half crab, Faust pushes him off and rolls backward to his feet. Hank Henry III tries to gain the edge against Faust with a rushing clothsline, but Faust saw the move coming and lowers himself before raising Hank Henry III in the air with a back body drop! As Hank lies down on the canvas floor. Faust hits the ropes and then comes back, only to hit a standing swanton bomb! He goes for the pin, but at the count of two, Hank Henry III kicks out. Faust picks up the bigger man for a scoop slam, but the pain from the spinebuster rushed through his back again, allowing Hank to fall on top of them for a pin of his own! But at the count of two, Faust gets the shoulder up. Hank calls his opponent something that the camera couldn’t pick up and goes for an armbar, enjoying the pain that washes over Faust as he hears his opponent scream.

Duff: Hank should know that submissions do not win the match!

Tex: I don’t think he cares at this point, Duff. Making his opponent suffer in anyway he can is his job and he’s doing it correctly!

The referee yells at Hank to get off and Hank doesn’t let go until a few minutes later. Faust clutches his arm in pain as he slowly rises to his feet and shakes it off the pain. He turns around and catches Hank Henry going for a spear and was quick enough to catch Hank’s face with a low dropkick face! Hank growls in rage as the pain settled on him, but feels his chest now starting to hurt as Faust goes for a standing legdrop and connects with the move. He goes for another pin, but Hank Henry III once again kicks out of the move. He picks up Hank and goes for a European uppercut, sending Hank back into the lower-left corner of the ring and lands a vicious assault. Hank feels each blow hitting his midsection. Then Faust made the mistake of going for a powered-up haymaker. That allowed Hank to strike back with a fierce elbow to Faust’s face. Faust circles around the ring, feeling the blow on his right cheek. As he turns around, Hank finally nails the clothesline he sought out earlier, watching as Faust spins in the air and landing face-first on the canvas. He goes for a pin, hooking the leg, but the referee stopped his count at two as Faust kicks out. Hank Henry III picks up the man, only to spin around him and go for a German suplex! But since the effects of the punching assault from his opponent weakened, the grip was loosened as Faust flipped backwards out of it. Then he rushes to the side, grabbing Hank Henry III’s head and slamming it down to the canvas with a bulldog. Faust goes for yet another cover, but Hank Henry III pushes him off at the count of two. Faust is not happy that his opponent is not giving him and now decides to give him a taste of his own medicine. He walks over to the upper-right corner of the ring and slowly begins to climb. Behind him, Hank Henry III slowly recovers and rises to one knee, seeing Faust now and realizing what he’s up to.

Tex: Hank Henry’s making a mad dash to the post before Faust gets that fork!

Duff: And he stopped him just in time too!

To see what he means, just as Faust was about to grab the fork with his left hand, he keels over on the top rope, a couple of right fists hitting his back courtesy of Hank! Hank Henry III is able to finally get a good grasp of his opponent from behind. The audience gasps in their seats as Hank Henry III leaps in the air and throws him opponent into the canvas with a devastating German suplex! The ring shook hard as the crowd began to chant “Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!” over and over as Hank Henry III is up first. He crawls over to the fallen Faust and places an arm on his chest. The referee takes it as an official pin count and slaps the mat twice before Faust BARELY got the shoulder up before the ref could slam his hand into the canvas for the third time. Hank is not happy with this and gets up. He stomps a mudhole into Faust, Faust crying out in agony from the kicks into his ribs that are now injured. As Faust is on all fours, trying to get up, Hank Henry steps back a little bit, then rushes forward, and punts Faust in the face! Faust is now bleeding from the mouth and feeling the effect as Hank Henry III goes for the fork now this time. But Faust won’t have any of it! Ignoring the pain, he runs over, climbing up the post and attacking Hank from behind with a few elbows. Hank tries to strike back with a few elbows, which connect. But Faust is not giving in as he goes and kicks Hank hard in his right ankle. That forces Hank to keel over in pain, gritting his teeth as Faust gets on the ground, then goes under Hank’s legs and stands in front of him, surprising the audience with a tremendous powerbomb!

Tex: Faust and Hank Henry III are not settling until there’s a winner at hand!
