Freedom Pro Wrestling S1 E2: Hit the Lights
September 4th, 2017
Chicago, IL
Odeum Expo Center
The camera pans across the crowd at the Odeum Expo Center as episode 2 of Freedom Pro Wrestling commences.MW: Hello and welcome to the second episode of Freedom Pro Wrestling! We've got a stacked card for you tonight, including two world championship tournament semifinal matches!
SD: Yes indeed! Adam Thompson will take on the greatness that is Sabre, and in our main event, that clown Jerry Bishop will face Marcus Allen Jones, who, on the record, is my best friend.
MW: He is not your best friend.. anyways, we're gonna kick things off with Zeke battling the master of Norwegian strong style Erick Skaar to get the right to face Justice Legal in a rematch of sorts from last episode. Let's get down to ringside for our first match!
Match One: Erick Skaar vs Zeke - guest written by Jerry Bishop
DB: The following is your opening contest and it is a singles match scheduled for one fall where the winner will face Justice Legal next episode! Introducing first, from Bergen, Norway, Erick Skaar!
"Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin hits over the speakers as the fans boo. Once Robert Plant's vocals kick in, Skaar bounces to the ring following the beat of the song and posing on the turnbuckle, almost asking the crowd on to boo him further.
SD: That's a true icon, taking a classic song like that and making it his own!
MW: You've gotta be kidding me...
DB: And his opponent, from Raleigh, North Carolina, Zeke!
"Burn In My Light" hits over the speakers as Zeke poses confidently at the top of the ramp, staring straight at Skaar, before sauntering to the ring, dismissing the audience on the ramp as Skaar gestures to bring it.
SD: And this young lad, he's oozing confidence, nothing but strength being shown here!
MW: I think Connecticut wants its commentary back...
Zeke poses on the turnbuckle ignoring the crowd as Skaar motions to 'get on with it'. Zeke dismounts and cracks his knuckles, Skaar cracks his neck, and the bell sounds. The two swipe at each other, egging each other to make a mistake, before locking up with a collar-and-elbow. Zeke drives Skaar into a corner, forcing the ref to count to break the hold. Zeke releases at 4, smoothly backing away. Skaar, on the other hand, charges at Zeke and catches him in a waistlock, followed by a German suplex. As Zeke rolls over from the suplex, Skaar grabs his legs and locks in a Boston Crab.
SD: Look at the technical prowess of Skaar in there! And to think he's from Scandinavia!
MW: I'm not sure whether to call that remark racist or not...
Zeke reaches the ropes, forcing the break once Skaar releases at 4. Zeke pulls himself up on the ropes, but is met with a series of chops from Skaar. However, unlike in other FPW matches previously, none of Skaar's chops are met with "WOO"s from the Freedom Fighters in attendance. Skaar notices the crowd's silence and goes to the ropes to address this.
MW: Looks like Skaar isn't too happy with how he's being treated out there!
SD: Can you blame him? He's paying tribute to one of the greatest of all time, and these people are just sitting on their hands?
While Skaar is wrapped up in "addressing" the crowd, Zeke sneaks out of the corner, grabs Skaar by the arm, and Irish Whips him into the turnbuckle. As Skaar staggers out of the corner, Zeke meets him with another whip into the ropes before catching him with a powerslam. Zeke makes the cover.
1!
2!
Erick Skaar kicks out!
Zeke slaps the mat to indicate a three count to the ref. Zeke pulls Skaar up from the mat and cinches in a headlock, applying pressure while laughing at the crowd.
SD: Look at this kid, he's got the presence of an icon slayer!
MW: I don't think you know what that means...
Zeke continues to apply pressure, but Skaar pushes back, driving Zeke against the ropes before sending him towards the opposite side of the ring. Skaar catches Zeke with a roundhouse kick, stopping Zeke cold. Skaar goes for a cover.
1!
2!
Zeke kicks out as Skaar argues with the referee.
SD: Neither of these bruisers looks like they're going to give an inch in this one!
MW: But both of these young upstarts might be letting their tempers get the better of them! Will the cooler head prevail here?
Skaar makes it to his feet and winds up a discus elbow smash as Zeke bickers with the ref. Zeke turns around right into the elbow, and Skaar taunts the crowd, mocking Zeke's pose on the stage earlier. Skaar props Zeke up for a penalty kick to the chest, but as Skaar follows through, Zeke catches the leg and whips Skaar into the ropes, stunning him. Zeke gets to his feet and sets up in the corner for a punt kick as Skaar kneels dazed in the middle of the ring.
SD: This could put Skaar away right here!
MW: Maybe, or maybe not! Look!
As Zeke charges for the punt kick, Skaar uses Zeke's own reversal against him, catching his leg and driving him into the ropes. Zeke lays stunned in the ring as Skaar taunts the crowd further, spreading his arms wide.
SD: It looks like Skaar wants to send a message to Zeke here!
MW: And we know what that message is!
Skaar pulls Zeke up onto his shoulders and sets him up for "Greetings from the North", draping Zeke's legs across his shoulder. Skaar hits the move on the dazed Zeke and makes the cover.
1!
2!
3!
Skaar laughs as the referee raises his hand and Dasha Banks calls his name.
DB: Here is your winner and facing Justice Legal next episode, Erick Skaar!
Skaar mounts the turnbuckle again and mocks Zeke's pose from his entrance while chuckling to himself. Zeke slides out of the ring and stares at Skaar as he backs the entire way up the ramp, nursing his neck.
MW: Looks like Norwegian Strong Style won the day here, but who knows what will happen the next time these two bruisers meet?
SD: Indeed, I'm eager to see who Skaar sets his sights on, and I can't wait to see who Zeke takes on next!
MW: You know Zeke lost this match, right?
SD: Of course, but that doesn't mean I don't know talent where I see it!
MW: Of course...
---COMMERCIAL BREAK---
We're backstage and we see Jerry Bishop lacing his boots. There's a strawberry milkshake at his side. A man approaches him. It's Marcus Allen Jones.
MAJ (sarcastically): I just want to let you know, I'm soooo sorry about what happened at the Jester's Court.
JB: Oh yeah it's all good!
MAJ: What?
JB: Yeah, all is forgiven!
Jerry picks up his milkshake and he stands up.
JB: See you in the ring tonight!
Marcus gets irritated and he shoves Jerry, knocking over his milkshake, before walking away and putting on his headphones.
Jerry stares down at the milkshake. He then dips into his pants and he pulls a ring out.
JB: In brightest day.. in darkest night. Lucha ring, I'll need you today.
Match Two: Sound and Fury vs Anarchy
MW: This next match is our very first tag team match in FPW history!
SD: This one is going to be a barn-burner for sure!
DB: The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall!
"Lose My Life" by Papercut Massacre hits and Sound and his tag team partner, Fury, run down to the ring, with Sound doing an impressive jump into it.
DB: First, the team of Sound and Fury!
The two show off their respective flags (British and Portuguese) in the ring.
MW: These two have very different backgrounds but in the ring, I hear they work together very well.
SD: I'm sure they work better as a team than we do.
MW: I'm sure of that too...
DB: And their opponents, the team of Davis Reynolds and Kassius Boone, Anarchy!
Their music is cut short when "Death March" by Motionless in White plays. Davis Reynolds and Kassius Boone walk down the ramp, pumping up the crowd and posing on the top rope.
MW: These guys were the first tag team signed to FPW. Last episode, Kassius Boone faced Adam Thompson in a really hard hitting match!
SD: And tonight is Davis Reynolds' debut, along with the debut of Sound and Fury!
The bell rings and Davis and Fury start the match. Davis immediately starts to trash talk Fury.
DR: Oooh what are you gonna do, hit me with some "lucha things"? I'm fucking shaking.
Fury catches Davis off guard with a triple kick combo, sending Davis scrambling back to his corner.
MW: Those "lucha things" seem to have worked!
SD: Perhaps.. But it looks like Davis wants some more!
Davis and Fury circle each other before locking up. Davis gains control with a headlock and he pushes Fury into the ropes. When Fury bounces back, Davis hits him with a dropkick followed by a knee to the gut. Davis turns to the crowd and he does a mocking "lucha lucha" chant. He turns around right into an enziguri. Fury hits a DDT and he starts to crawl to his partner. Davis does the same thing.
MW: Can either of these men make it to their corners in time- and they do!
Fury and Davis make their respective tags and Sound and Kassius Boone come running at each other. Kassius hits a big boot, knocking Sound onto his back. He then scoops Sound up for a huge running powerslam.
MW: Scary strength shown by Kassius Boone here!
SD: I certainly wouldn't want to be in the ring with him.
Fury tries to help Sound by jumping off the top rope onto Kassius Boone but Kassius catches him into a chokeslam. That was a good enough distraction, though, as Sound rolls Kassius up.
1!
DR: Come on Kassius, don't go out like a pussy!
2!
Kassius kicks out!
SD: I think that only made him angry..
Kassius attempts a clothesline but Sound dodges and goes to the ropes. He hits a springboard forearm but that barely affects Kassius. Sound tries to hit a rolling wheel kick but Kassius catches his leg and he tosses Sound across the ring.
DR: Yeaaaahhh! That's more like it!
Sound tags Fury in and Davis tags himself in.
MW: And we're back to square one!
Davis and Fury both hit running knee strikes on each other at the same time. They both lay in the ring and the ref begins to count.
1!
2!
3!
4!
5!
MW: And Davis Reynolds gets up at 5!
Davis attempts a cross arm breaker but to no avail as Fury gets out of it. Fury hits various kicks combinations on Davis and then he tries for a superkick but Davis catches it. Davis hits a knee strike to Fury's head before hitting a standing frankensteiner.
SD: Frankensteiner outta nowhere!
Davis hits a knee smash on Sound and then he goes to the opposite corner to tag in Kassius Boone. Kassius picks Fury up into a crucifix position.
MW: I believe this is it!
Kassius hits Fury with a crucifix powerbomb into Davis' jumping neckbreaker.
MW: A Quick Drop!
Kassius makes the cover.
1!
2!
3!
DB: Here are your winners, Anarchy!
MW: What a match that was!
SD: I believe the Freedom Fighters are now well introduced to both of these teams!
Kassius and Davis celebrate but then a mysterious video plays on the entrance video screen. A dark room appears on the screen, doused in a red tint. A bearded man in a suit walks into view. His voice is warped and muffled.
: Hello, Mr. Boone. Hello, Mr. Reynolds. My name is Lecter Manson. I'm here to bring you some news. If it's good... or bad, well, you can figure that out for yourself. On episode 3, I would like you to meet my two cousins, Cannibal and Hannibal. They're dying to meet you and cause some real anarchy. Lecter laughs and the video switches to text in front of flames.
"SONS OF CERBERUS"
Davis and Kassius look at each other, clearly startled at first, but then they smile and nod, exiting the ring together.
---COMMERCIAL BREAK---
Backstage, Adam Thompson is arriving at the arena. Someone off screen asks him if he thinks he'll beat Sabre.
AT: Of course I will. I'm the Pendragon, man. And Sabre? He's just some rich snob who's been handed everything in life. He won't last a second with me.
Adam smirks and leaves.
Match Three: Azazel vs Athena Dai
SD: Last episode, Athena Dai won the match of the night. Tonight, she faces Azazel.
MW: And Azazel is no stranger to winning either. He beat Justice Legal in a matter of seconds in his debut!
DB: Please welcome the special guest commentator for this bout, Freja!
"Kaze Ni Nare" blares and Freja walks down to the commentary booth at ringside.
MW: Welcome, Freja.
F: I'm simply here to scout for my next opponent.
MW: But you already faced Athena Dai..
F: You are correct there. And she got the better of me, but next time, that won't happen.
DB: The following contest is a singles match and it is scheduled for one fall! Entering first, from Limbo, "The Anti-Hero" Azazel!
The song "Martyr" begins to play as Azazel walks slowly to the ring, carrying a torch.
MW: What do you think of Azazel, Freja?
F: He's an impressive competitor for sure, but I've beaten scarier people.
SD: Jesus! I can't think of anyone scarier than Azazel..
Azazel places the torch on one of the ring posts before sitting down cross legged beneath it.
"Come As You Are" hits and Athena Dai walks out, swaying to her own music.
DB: And his opponent, from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Athena Dai!
Dai stares Azazel down as the bell rings and the match starts. The two circle each other.
MW: Who do you see winning this match, Freja?
F: ...
MW: Freja?
F: ....
SD: Shh! She's focusing!
Dai goes behind Azazel to hit a German suplex but when she does hit it, Azazel simply does a flip and lands cross legged in the ring.
MW: What the-
SD: You know, I'm really close to just telling Jim Houston to give Azazel the title...
Dai and Azazel lock up but Azazel gains control of the match after putting Dai in a headlock and then lifting her up for the brainbuster.
SD: BRAIIIIINNNBUSTAAAHHHH!!!!!
Azazel goes for the cover.
1!
2!
Dai kicks out!
Azazel simply picks Dai up for a second brainbuster but Dai gets out of it.
MW: That was a close one.
F: Yes.. yes it was.
Dai hits Azazel repeatedly with forearm strikes until Azazel is on his knees.
MW: Can she do it? Can she slay the monster known as Azazel?
Dai runs the ropes for a basement dropkick but Azazel rolls out of the way. Dai lands back first on to the mat.
SD: Oof! Doesn't look it, Watson.
Azazel hits a deadlift German suplex on Dai followed by a no-handed springboard moonsault but Dai gets her knees up in time to hurt Azazel.
MW: This might be what Athena Dai needs to get the match back in her favor!
Azazel runs at Dai but gets caught in a belly to belly suplex for his troubles. Dai lifts Azazel into the Razeplex and she goes for the cover after hitting it.
MW: This could be it!
F: I'm well aware.
1!
Azazel kicks out!
SD: WHAT THE FUCK?!
MW: Oh my god!
Athena Dai can't believe it and she just stares at Azazel in shock. She thinks of a new plan. She lets Azazel get up and then she knees him in the face, busting him open.
SD: I'll be honest here, I didn't think Azazel could bleed!
MW: Me neither!
Azazel is bent over at the waist and Athena Dai hits the Razekick.
MW: One last act of desperation by Athena Dai!
F: Good. Desperation is something she'll need.
SD: But can it pay off?
1!
2!
Azazel kicks out!
MW: How??!!
Azazel slowly gets up as Athena Dai looks shocked once again. Azazel motions for more so Dai responds in stiff kicks to his ribs. Azazel catches one foot before waving his finger at her.
SD: Oh shit, oh shit!
Azazel drops her leg and he hits her with a roundhouse kick. Dai slowly gets up but then she eats The Night running knee strike.
MW: She's gotta be knocked out now!
1!
2!
3!
DB: Here is your winner, Azazel!
SD: You've gotta hand it to Athena, she put up one hell of a fight!
F: Yes, yes she did..
Freja suddenly gets up and leaves the commentary booth.
MW: Well.. that was strange.
SD: She has a busy schedule! Unlike you. But let's talk about Azazel. Who do you think can stop him?
MW: I'm not sure if anybody can..
---COMMERCIAL BREAK---
Erick Skaar is backstage, facing the camera.
ES: Tonight I vanquished that child known as Zeke. Next episode, I vanquish Justice Legal. And then I'm coming for the FPW World Championship. Nothing will stop me.
Erick leaves.
Match Four: Sabre vs Adam Thompson
MW: It's time for our first FPW World Championship tournament match here tonight!
SD: And what a match it'll be, but as you know, I'll be cheering for my brother from another mother, Sabre!
DB: The following contest is a semifinal match in the FPW World Championship tournament and it is scheduled for one fall!
"Anitra's Dance" plays and Sabre saunters down the ramp.
DB: Entering first, from Parts Unknown, Sabre!
Sabre enters the ring and raises his fists, egging on what he thinks to be the crowd cheering him.
SD: Yeah go ahead, keep booing Sabre! Just remember he's wealthier than you ever will be!
The boos turn into cheers as "The Feast and The Famine" by Foo Fighters plays and out comes Adam Thompson.
DB: And his opponent, from Plymouth, Devon, England, he is the "Pendragon" Adam Thompson!
Adam and Sabre stare each other down until the bell rings. As soon as the bell rings, Sabre rolls out of the ring.
SD: Fantastic strategy on Sabre's part!
MW: Are you kidding me?
Adam rolls out and chases Sabre around the ring but Sabre quickly slides back into the ring and dropkicks Adam. Sabre drops his fist and quickly goes for the pin.
1!
2!
Adam Thompson kicks out!
SD: How did he kick out of that?!
MW: Calm down, the match just started.
Sabre tries to lift Adam Thompson up for a powerslam but he can't quite lift him. Adam gets out of it and begins to hit him with some stiff elbow strikes before bouncing off the ropes and hitting a slingblade.
MW: What a great start to this match so far!
SD: If only Sabre was in control..
Adam lifts Sabre up and hits a sit out powerbomb.
1!
2!
Sabre kicks out!
Adam goes to the top rope.
MW: Perhaps he's going up top for an elbow drop. Macho like Randy!
Adam attempts the elbow drop but Sabre rolls out of the way and puts Adam in an armbar.
SD: Ha! Genius!
Adam struggles against the hold but he eventually gets to the ropes to break the hold. Sabre lines Adam up against the ropes and he chops him a bit before turning to the crowd to brag.
MW: Come on! Never take your eye off your opponent..
SD: You can when you're Sabre!
Sabre turns around and is immediately hit with some vicious elbow strikes.
MW: Told you so.
SD: Well, I obviously never doubted you.
MW: Sure.
Adam Thompson gets behind Sabre in the middle of the ring and he hits a dragon suplex. Sabre struggles to get up.
SD: Dangerous moves like the dragon suplex should be banned.
MW: ...Right.
Adam attempts to pick Sabre up from behind but Sabre reverses it into a jawbreaker. Adam sprawls on the ground and Sabre gets to his feet.
MW: Can Sabre get the advantage here?
SD: COME ON SABRE YOU GOT THIS!
Sabre hits the Sabre Thrust superkick on a kneeling Adam Thompson and he goes for a pinfall.
SD: AND
1!
SD: YOUR
2!
SD: WINNER!!!!!!
Adam Thompson kicks out!
SD: WHAT?!!!!!!
MW: I'm with you there! How did he kick out?!
Sabre begins to get frustrated so he unhooks the turnbuckle. The ref tells him he can't do that and he hooks the turnbuckle back on. While his back is turned, Sabre pulls something out of his pants and he puts it in his mask.
MW: What is this now?
SD: More genius tactics by Sabre!
Sabre grabs Adam and headbutts him with the loaded mask. He then hits him with a second Sabre Thrust before going for the cover.
MW: This is disgusting..
1!
2!
3!
SD: WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Sabre celebrates as Adam rubs his head. As Sabre is jumping up and down, a metal object falls from his mask.
DB: Here is your winner-
: HOLD ON, HOLD ON!Jim Houston walks out and confronts Sabre.
JH: You're not getting off the hook that easy, Sabre. I saw you cheated. So we're gonna restart the match! Ring the bell!
Sabre looks enraged as the bell rings.
SD: What?! I can't believe our General Manager is screwing over top tier talent like Sabre!
MW: It's only fair! Sabre tried to get away with cheating!
SD: And he did get away with it!
Sabre turns around right into a fireman's carry. Adam Thompson hits Excalibur and he quickly pins Sabre.
1!
2!
3!
SD: NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
DB: Here is your winner and advancing to the FPW World Championship match at Enter Sandman, Adam Thompson!
Adam Thompson celebrates as the crowd cheers. He poses at the top of the entrance ramp.
MW: Adam Thompson fought valiantly and we didn't even think he was going to win but then Jim Houston set things right! Adam is now going to be in the main event of Enter Sandman! Who will he face? Well, we'll find out in our main event. Later tonight, it's Jerry Bishop vs Marcus Allen Jones!
SD: I can only hope that Marcus Allen Jones wins his match..
---COMMERCIAL BREAK---
Clutch McCloud and Richard Crowley are backstage with an offscreen interviewer. The interviewer asks them if they have anything to say to Jeremiah Johnson or the Freedom Fighters.
CMC: First of all-
RC: First of all, we'd like to say to Jeremiah Johnson, you actions will not go unpunished. We will strike you down with the force of a thousand-
CMC: Jeremiah Johnson, when I'm back from my injury, you'll be seeing me. And Freedom Fighters? I will be back very very soon.
Clutch and Crowley start to leave but they're stopped by Nick Leeds.
RC: What do you want?
NL: I'm just here to relay a message. From my new client. He says... "come and get me".
Nick smirks and leaves as Clutch and Crowley scowl at the message.
Match Five: Azrael vs Davey Jones
MW: We've still got one more match before the main event and it is a showcase between two amazing athletes.
SD: Amazing is right!
DB: The following contest is a singles match and it is scheduled for one fall! Entering first, from The Horizon Above, "The Forgotten Angel" Azrael!
"Azrael" by The Betrayers hits as Azrael zip lines to the ring, landing in the center and doing an angelic pose.
MW: Azrael came up short against Marcus Allen Jones last episode but he's still here and still ready to embark on his journey to winning the FPW World Championship!
The music switches to "Iridescent" by Linkin Park and Davey Jones walks slowly down to the ring, feeling the crowd's energy.
DB: And his opponent, from somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, Davey "The Pirate" Jones!
SD: Davey Jones also came up short last episode against Jerry Bishop. If it wasn't for that clown, Davey would be in the main event!
MW: I'm sure Davey is fine with Jerry being in the main event.
SD: Yeah but I'm not.
The bell rings and the two circle each other. They lock up but Davey gets behind Azrael for a German suplex but Azrael gets behind Davey. He lifts Davey up and he hits the Call of Death electric chair front drop.
MW: Well that was fast!
SD: I know!
Azrael goes to the top rope but Davey joins him up there before he can hit The Prophecy. Davey hits a German suplex off the top rope and he goes for the cover.
MW: Can he get a quick win?!
1!
2!
Azrael kicks out!
Davey goes to the top rope and he waits until Azrael stands up so he can hit a double axehandle. He jumps down and Azrael hits him with an enziguri as he comes down.
SD: Davey may have messed up here!
Azrael hits a standing moonsault on Davey before going to the top and hitting The Prophecy 630 splash.
MW: And he hits it!
1!
2!
3!
DB: Here is your winner, Azrael!
SD: I can't believe he pulled that off! If I were Davey, I'd be giving him a beatdown right now!
MW: I can't believe he was able to finish it so quickly!
Azrael offers a handshake to Davey but Davey ignores it and leaves. Azrael continues to celebrate until the lights go out.
MW: What the hell?!
The lights come back on and there's a pair of angel wings in the ring. Only they're black. Azrael just stares at them, transfixed.
MW: Well, we have no idea what's going on so we're going to go to commercial. See you in a bit!
---COMMERCIAL BREAK---
We see Athena Dai in the locker room. Freja approaches her.
AD: What do you want?
F: I'm just here to tell you that next episode, I've got a match against Azazel. And I'm going to do what you couldn't do and I'm going to beat him. Then, I'm coming for you.
Freja leaves and Dai just smirks.
AD: Good luck with that.
Match Six: Jerry Bishop vs Marcus Allen Jones - guest written by Adam Thompson/Anarchy
DB: Ladies and Gentlemen, it is time for tonight's main event and it is a semifinal match in the FPW World Championship tournament!
MW: Tonight's headline act, show's almost over folks.
SD: I'm almost sad to see it end Watson.
Kabalevsky's "The Comedians' Gallop" starts to play over the arena speakers as large portions of the crowd cheer.
DB: Introducing first, coming out of Kansas City, Missouri, The Jester Jerry Bishop!
Jerry Bishop appears at the top of the entrance ramp and bows before he starts making his way down to the ring. Bishop mimes conducting his entrance theme as he goes.
SD: Now I'm sure we all remember Mr. Bishop's unfortunate, saddening victory on our first show.
MW: Jerry Bishop fought hard, and pulled out a well deserved victory, what is your problem?
SD: Jerry Bishop is so sickening that I wish the pirate won.
Bishop climbs into the ring and goes straight for the centre, bowing yet again as his music fades and he takes his place in the corner. Soon afterwards, Cult of Personality by The Living Colour starts up. New Freedom Fighters in the Chicago crowd start, to put it bluntly, marking the fuck out. Those more familiar with the FPW roster are completely aware of the incoming mass disappointment.
DB: And his opponent, from Chicago, Illinois, he would like to be announced as "The Smartest Man in Pro Wrestling", Marcus Allen Jones!
As the crowd starts yelling and booing, the man himself appears at the top of the entrance ramp. He casually backflips, hitting the three-point superhero landing as his pyro hits and he starts his walk to the ring.
MW: Well it's hard to argue how the crowd feel on this one Steven
SD: What are you talking about Mike, it's just a tough crowd is all.
The crowds' booing continues throughout more or less all of Marcus' entrance.
SD: How dare they, Marcus is a good friend of mine, and frankly this is sickening.
MW: You're gonna mention that every time aren't you?
Eventually Marcus reaches the ring and climbs in. He goes to the centre of the ring and pulls out a piece of paper. He flashes it to the camera along with a big, arrogant smile. The paper reads "#TheBishopisMyPawn". Marcus walks up to his opponent and offers a handshake, but when Bishop goes to take the offer Marcus pulls his hand back, smoothing back his hair as he walks off to his corner. Jerry Bishop stares daggers at his opponent as they wait for the bell to ring.
MW: Bad sportsmanship from Marcus.
SD: Oh who needs sportsmanship, we're here for BLOOD!
MW: Are you okay man?
SD: Sorry, missed my medication today.
The bell rings.
SD: And we're off!
Jerry Bishop immediately rushes MAJ, knocking his opponent down to the mat immediately!
MW: If I were to make a guess then Marcus' little show of disrespect pissed Bishop off!
SD: Maybe a little.
Marcus is grounded, more from the shock of the sudden attack than the force of the impact. Bishop works fast, reaching down to grab Marcus by the head and pulling Marcus forcefully to his feet before throwing the man towards the nearest corner. Marcus stumbles back after Bishop releases him, barely reaching the corner before Bishop pursues him, landing a hard forearm to Marcus' head! Bishop pulls his opponent into position for a DDT and pulls him out of the corner, climbing to the second rope and jumps, attempting a Tornado DDT.
MW: Bishop picking up the pace quickly!
Just before Bishop can pull Marcus down with him, Marcus' head slips out of the hold causing Bishop to land on the mat with nothing to show for it. Marcus takes advantage of the opportunity and jumps, stomping on Bishop's chest and rolling off, coming straight back to his feet. Bishop on the other hand clutches his chest and rolls onto one knee. Marcus spots another opening and runs at his downed opponent, hitting a hard hitting Shining Wizard right to the side of Bishop's head!
SD: Spoke too soon Mike, stopped dead in his tracks by my good friend Marcus!
MW: Will you shut up about that?
SD: You're just jealous.
MW: Am not.
Marcus takes in the crowd's displeasure with a smirk on his face. He walks up to the prone Bishop and nudges him with his foot before stomping down hard on Bishop's knee! Marcus does this a few more times before grabbing Bishops leg pulling him over onto his front, locking in the Boston Crab!
MW: Marcus going for an early submission?
SD: More likely working towards the Mark-treal Screwjob Mike.
Marcus wrenches back on the Boston Crab, putting immense pressure on Bishop's back and pulling hard on his legs, stretching him out. With great effort Bishop pushes and lifts himself off the ground before fitting his head under him and rolling, forcing Marcus off his back! Bishop scrambles to his feet as Bishop's escape causes Marcus to fly forward into the ropes! Marcus rolls backwards and Bishop jumps over him! Marcus gets to his feet and throws a superkick which Bishop catches with both hands! Bishop throws Marcus' foot away, causing the Marksman to spin around and Bishop hits him square in the side of the head with a rolling elbow! Bishop catches Marcus from behind and instead of letting him fall Bishop brings Marcus down to the may with force with a Russian leg sweep!
MW: Jerry Bishop turning the tables on MAJ, taking back control of the match!
SD: It's disgraceful...
Jerry Bishop grabs Marcus' hands and pulls him up, immediately putting him in position for a straightjacket DDT!
MW: The Last Laugh, if Marcus can't escape it could all be over and I'm not sure anyone COULD escape the Last Laugh!
SD: Careful Mike, commenter's curse!
Sure enough, Marcus manages to free a hand just as Jerry starts to laugh and he drops down to his back before using his free hand to break Bishop's hold on the other! Then, Marcus gets into a headstand, gets each leg on either side of Bishop's head and brings Bishop to the mat with headstand headscissors!
MW: Commenter's curse.
Marcus scrambles to his feet and pulls Bishop up, shoving Jerry's head between his legs.
SD: Marcus has some dangerous things in mind, I've seen this time and time again!
Marcus grabs Bishop around the waist and jumps...
SD: CANADIAN DESTROY-
MW: -BISHOP ESCAPES!
Just before what would have been the moment of impact Jerry Bishop puts his hands down, resisting the flip piledriver with a handstand!
