SWF Main Event 7/17/04
As promised, we open the show with The Billion Dollar Man, forgoing the intro, as he is here to reveal his lineup for the next SWF PPV, the second under his command:
BDM(excited): Hello everyone, and welcome to this very special SWF Main Event! (big boos) As I promised last week, I'd open the show up with the announcement of the PPV extravaganza I have planned for the 30th of this month. But, before I do that, I have to put to rest the out of control rumors about a new owner, thus ending my regime of fairness, and giving the fans what they want (MEGA boos). The reports of Vance McMillian, who unfortunately I CAN'T fire from his duties as SWF chairman, finalizing a deal that coronates a new owner of this company, are 100% FALSE. Now, moving on, July 30th as mentioned before, will be the date of my second PPV event, and it promises to be even better than Slamboree! I call this event......
BDM is cut off by the sound of The SWF Main Event theme, and Dean & Angelica in the announce booth speak up to voice their confusion. BDM isn't very happy either, then, VANCE MCMILLIAN WALKS OUT! Vance is back! Dean & Angelica are ecstatic, the fans pop huge, and BDM looks furious in the ring. Vance walks to the ring with a purpose, holding some sort of document in his hand! He enters the ring, the music cuts off, and he pulls out a mic from his jacket pocket:
Vance(somewhat angry): Paul, Billion Dollar Man id you prefer, your days of tyranny are over! (HUGE pop) As of now, you are OUT of power! (GIANT pop)
BDM(angry, and shocked): WHAT?! That can't be! I was just about to announce my next PPV!
Vance(smiles, and holds up the document in his hand): Well, maybe you should have listened to the rumors, because this document signifies a new owner has indeed been named, I finalized the deal Wednesday afternoon! (BIG pop) And, (sarcastically) I'm SO sorry to say that their first act as new owner was to correct the loophole you exploited to take control! (another mega pop) Their second act was to rehire those poor crew members you fired, and, reinstate me as an announcer! (yet another massive pop)
BDM(beside himself): That's it! I want to know just who this person is!
Vance(shrugs): To be honest, I don't know. You see, all we got was an official, notarized document, signing the rights of the SWF over to a mysterious buyer, who is only recognized by an affixed wax seal. I had to send it to the company lawyers, they examined it, and determined it is all legit, as the owner can remain secret if they so desire. Once that happened, I signed off to make it official, then sent the paperwork to the P.O. Box I was given, that apparently belongs to the new owner. (sifts through the papers, then holds one up) This is what that individual sent back, declaring the two orders I mentioned, and also, the REAL lineup for the next PPV, as decreed by the boss, whoever that might be! (big pop) The event will still be held here in the SWF Arena, on July 30th as you had planned, and is called SWF Redemption. On that card, we will see, what the owner wrote as "Redemption matches", said to be FAIR, impartial rematches of those you set up at Slamboree, with the promise of no interference, or changing of the rules. The letter states that ANY interference, or foul play by the champions, not only results in their title being stripped, but immediate release from their contract! (big pop) If any of the challengers break the rules, they too will be fired! Now, here is the lineup as of now:
In one of the "Redemption Matches", The SWF 6 Man champs, King of the Streets & Yeti will face The Breakfast Club for the titles. It will be a traditional, one fall 6 Man tag contest.
The Hardcore title has been reinstated, effective as of now, and will be defended by the last man to hold the title, The Reverend, in a 20 Man, Hardcore Gauntlet Match! (big pop) His partner, Xavier Hawthorne will also be in the match, along with The Janitor, Crazy Phil, The Suicide Brothers, Boppo The Clown, Tripp, Repo, X, Disco Danny, Jimmy Jam, Randy Mann, Beef Macho, Silkky Smooth, Ayatollah Sheik, Captain Fantastic, Tex Gentry, Rory Rogers, & Charles Gunn! In this match, two men start, and every 90 seconds, the next man enters, and so on until only two men are left. Those two men will then battle it out in a singles contest to crown the winner, and SWF Hardcore champion.
The Television champ, The Mercenary, will have to face the man he unfairly defeated to win the title, Octane, with the TV title on the line!
The Black Dragons will also get their chance at Redemption, when they face SWF Tag Team champions, Jahalaman Jaffe & Joe Money, your Cash Inc buddies, BDM. This time, it will be fair and square!
The United States champ, Petey Pizzazz will have to see if he can retain his title versus the man he screwed over, The Freedom Fighter, without the aid of JuJu!
And, don't think you won't be defending the SWF World title BDM. But you won your match fair and square, so there isn't a need for a Redemption Match. You will be facing a totally new opponent, one you quite possibly haven't ever faced. I can't say for sure, since the identity of your opponent is unknown. You'd better prepare for anything, because who knows who you might face, perhaps an enemy, or a new star, maybe a famous face in the industry, just signed to the SWF, looking to make an impact. Now that's all taken care of, what do you say we get this show going? (crowd pops huge) Alright then, let's (fans say it with him) KICK IT OFF!
We head up to Angelica & Dean, as Vance makes his way up to them, and BDM walks to the back, still stunned at what took place. Vance makes it to the announcer's position, and takes a seat, refusing to let Angelica leave, so we have a three person team! Dean then announces the 4 matches for tonight:
Buffalo Billy debuts vs Jimmy Jam
Silkky Smooth faces Tony Ramon
The Breakfast Club's Burnout/Nerd/Jock face The Good Ol' Boys
Main Event: The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane vs JuJu, Petey Pizzazz, & Cash Inc
Vance reiterates his famous saying, and we start the show
Buffalo Billy vs Jimmy Jam
Billy enters to Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus, and is wearing some old, light brown pants, and a flowery, woman's silk robe. He dances down the aisle, ala Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs, which the character was obviously lifted from. The crowd, and the announcers really don't know what to make of Billy, so they back Jimmy 100%, and boo him. It should be noted, that Billy is quite a bit taller than Jimmy, who stands about 6'1, but is real wiry for his size. Billy shows some good wrestling skills, while Vance tells us he is 6'5, and weighs about 230 lbs. Jimmy makes a big comeback, but Billy ends that by catching him with a fall away slam as he tried a top rope move. Billy then gets Jimmy into position for a gut wrench suplex it seems, then dances a bit, before lifting Jimmy, and instead of doing the gut wrench, swings, and drops him in front of him for the powerbomb variant known as a Doctor Bomb, which Dean says Billy calls the Buffalo Bomb. He slithers up onto Jimmy, with Jimmy's legs under Billy, so he has him rolled up in a disturbing looking pin, as Billy continues to dance a bit in the cover, 1-2-3, it's over. That Buffalo Billy is CREEPY.
*Winner* Buffalo Billy
Post Match: Billy dances to his theme, and puts his robe on again, then starts smearing the lipstick he had in the pocket, all over his lips. He leaves to the sound of silence from the weirded out crowd, as Jimmy is just trying to get up. As he does, the freak from last week, The Dead runs out, and knocks him to the ground! He starts pounding on Jimmy, and then bites his arm! Officials swarm the ring, and finally are able to pull the man off. First the bizarre Buffalo Billy beats poor Jimmy up, then this other oddball, The Dead bites him. Jimmy is having a bad day.
We head backstage, where an irate BDM is consulting with Lt. Dingle. BDM says he is commissioning his services to investigate this new ownership. BDM wants Dingle to find out who the new owner is, and the identity of his mystery opponent for Redemption. He also asks Dingle to see what those "SOON" promos have to do with either the new owner or the mystery opponent, if they are related at all. Dingle says he is on the case, and BDM whispers a plan to Dingle on how to obtain the info he wants. Dingle says he could have the info to him in a few days.
Silkky Smooth vs Tony Ramon
Silkky starts the match dominating, but Tony makes the comeback, only to be derailed by the Silkky Slam! The Don then runs out to break up the pin, and he starts beating on Silkky! The ref calls for the bell as Tony & Don beat down Silkky.
*Winner, by DQ* Silkky Smooth
Post Match: As the Kings of the Street whoop on poor Silkky, some African American dude in a black suit, an afro, and sunglasses rushes down the aisle, and comes in swingin', fighting off KOTS! Don & Tony are sent running to the hills, as this unknown person helps up Silkky. A dazed Silkky thanks the guy, and they seem to know each other, seeming happy to see each other. The two walk off to the back as Silkky's music plays.
The Breakfast Club vs The Good Ol' Boys
The match is a fast paced encounter, with TBC really turning up the intensity, which the announcers say is fueled by their determination to recapture the 6 Man titles. They also say that GOBS could make their case at a chance to reclaim the gold. TBC is too much to handle tonight though, as Burnout drills Charles with the Death Valley Driver, and picks up the pin.
*Winners* The Breakfast Club
Main Event: The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane vs JuJu, Petey Pizzazz, & Cash Inc
Octane starts vs JuJu, and damn near kills him, when Petey tags himself in to save him, but tags back out to Jaffe! Considering the history between Petey & Octane, I don't blame him! Jaffe doesn't appear to be thrilled, buts gives it a go, gets whooped, then Octane tags Shadow! Shadow comes in, and lays down some retribution, which the announcers remind us we'll see more of come Redemption. Jaffe scurries away to tag in Joe, who has better luck, after taking some hard shots, he uses a hard boot to the gut to take control. Shadow gets really worn down, but when Joe goes tries to hit The Payoff, he slips behind, and makes the desperate tag to Quow, who charges with an all out assault of martial arts kicks. Joe manages to hit a discreet low blow, then tag to JuJu, who runs in and instantly powerbombs Quow, then goes for the pin, but he got his foot on the rope! JuJu lifts Quow again, looking to end it with the JuJu Driver, but the pugnacious Quow wriggles free, and makes the dramatic leap to tag Freedom! He was nearly gone, but he made the tag! Freedom enters, with the fans, as well as himself all riled up, and he beats the crap out of JuJu, the man responsible for costing him the U.S. title at Slamboree. The end appears to be near, and Petey sees it, so he charges in the ring, only to be met by an Octane big boot! Cash Inc then enter the fray, as the Dragons cut them off! The ref tries to clear them from the ring as Freedom continues to destroy JuJu, so Octane & the Dragons throw their foes onto the floor, and take the fight out there! Freedom hits the Star Spangled Slam not long after, and 1-2-3, it's over!
*Winners* The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane
Post Match: The winners leave as their enemies are laid out, JuJu in the ring, and the other three on the floor. The announcers talk up how Freedom pinning JuJu is a taste of Redemption (the upcoming event, or just in general), and how things have changed, with BDM out of power, and the resistance to his crew out for revenge. They ponder just what surprises will be in store next week, possibly more on the new owner.
Before the closing graphic, we get a "SOON" promo. This one says "How soon from now? Sooner than you think. Prepare yourselves, it is coming, THEY are coming". Interesting. I can't wait to see about this "THEY" being spoken of. Last week, it actually hinted at a balance of power shifting, and tonight, BDM was stripped of his power, could this person be behind it all? Could they, in fact be, the new owner? Stay tuned, everything is really heating up.
