The PPV

The camera opens up on a shot of the crowd gathered at Safeco Field. The ring has `Supah Powah' on each side of the apron, and on the mat, written in orange. The camera switches to Joey Styles and Dave Meltzer, and it appears that they will be calling the matches from a skybox, with video monitors giving them a good look at the action....

Joey Styles: "Good evening, and welcome to Safeco Field in Seattle, Washington, for Xtreme Combat Wrestling Supah Powah! I'm Joey Styles. We have some great matches for you tonight, and here to tell you is my co-host, Dave Meltzer!"

Dave Meltzer: "Thank you, Joey. Tonight, XCW will crown its first ever Tag Team champions, as the teams of Mexico's Most Wanted, Konnan and Killings, Jerry and The Juice, and Lash LeRoux and Norman Smiley face off in an Elimination Match for the belts. Lash LeRoux and Norman Smiley have to be considered the underdogs in the match, as they aren't a regular tag team."

Joey Styles: "Well, it still should make for a great match."

Dave Meltzer: "Tonight, we'll also see a Four Corners match for the XCW Cruiserweight Championship, as AJ Styles defends the belt against Ultimo Dragon, Super Hentai, and David Levy. Then, in the Main Event, we will see if Sting can hold on to the XCW World Heavyweight Championship, as he faces Scott Hall and Terry Funk in a Cage Match!"

Joey Styles: "Well, it looks like we're ready for the first match. Lets go to the ring!"

XCW owner Brian Floyd comes out to the ring....

"Thank you everyone for coming, and I sincerely hope you've enjoyed tonight's matches. As you know, its now time for the Main Event. And I used the XCW Randomizer software to try and make the Main Event a little bit extra special. So, I would like to announce, that...there will be a special Guest Referee for the match!" (pauses) "Come on out, Valeria!"

Valeria Cage walks out from the back, dressed in a tight (but otherwise normal) referee shirt, black booty shorts, white socks and black sneakers. She plays to the crowd a bit as Mister Floyd leaves the ring area. Valeria doesn't head to the ring yet, as the cage still needs to be set up. - 73%

(Imagine whatever witless banter you'd like happening while the cage is being assembled. I don't feel like making something up.)

[Hajjhowe]

I won! Good show. Keep pushing Hajjhowe... you know you want to.

[DMN in the House]

The lack of Gabriel Price on the show is highly disturbing.

[GhostMachine]

First of all:

1. For everyone who is complaining: You're NOT going to get any cheese to go with that whine!

2. I got a new PS2 game a few days ago, and have been playing it instead of playing EWR for now. (Remember: I've already got over a dozen shows I've not posted yet) I'm probably going to post the next show tomorrow. I also don't plan on booking any more shows until I post most of the shows I've already done so far.

The lack of Gabriel Price on the show is highly disturbing.

←

Well, you're going to keep on being disturbed for about 4 more shows, iirc. Too lazy to go check, but I know he's not on the next 3 shows for sure.

Fallen Angel ended up out for 2 or 3 months with an arm injury, which is why I've not been using her. I just didn't feel like mentioning it.

On the other hand, you'll like the fact that Gabriel Price is now Unsackable! (Guess how come?) I used Arsenic to get rid of Creative Control, though. I don't mind people becoming Unsackable, but NO ONE is getting Creative Control unless that's the only way I can get them to sign with XCW in the first place. (Besides, he married Court H. Bauer's daughter, not mine, and I am the owner of XCW. Bauer's just some nutcase who thinks he owns it!)

*Sigh*

Okay, I've tried to write Friday Night Fury Episode 8 twice now, and had problems both times. Once, I somehow accidentally clicked a link on my toolbar (don't know how, really) and ended up wiping out my writing (and I had 90% of the show written. ). The other time, I got an error message popping up and had to close the window.

So screw it. I'm posting a synopsis of Episode 8, instead of re-writing it for a third time.

Friday Night Fury Episode 8

Footage of the end of the main event from the PPV airs before the usual opening for FNF. When the show opens, the camera pans across the crowd and it seems the show is being broadcast inside a giant circus tent, instead of the XCW Arena. Styles and Meltzer are at ringside, but instead of their usual custom-made announce table, they're at what looks like two wrestling tables set side by side with a black cloth that has the XCW logo on it draped over it. Joey Styles explains that the owner of the building known as the XCW Arena tried to screw over XCW owner Brian Floyd, who was having none of it. Bottom line is, Mister Floyd bought the land out from under him and he has until the end of the month to move the building or it will be destroyed, and the XCW Arena won't be used again. Mister Charisma somehow supplied the circus tent.

Jason Kintro vs. Marc Korver vs. Johnny Stylez

A good, solid triangle match with no one really dominating. Match ends when Kintro puts Korver down with a Tiger Driver `91, Stylez dodges a clothesline attempt by Kintro, and rolls him up for the pin, grabbing Kintro's tights for leverage.

All 4 members of Violent Conduct cut a promo about how bad ass they are, and about how they're going to dominate in their match later tonight. Big Bad Brad does most of the talking. (65% rating)

XCW Television Title Match - 999 © vs. SRFC-DanP vs. Biotech

A triangle match. SRFC dodges a back heel kick by Biotech, only to take a Death Valley Driver by 999 for his trouble. 999 hits the 3-Digit Death on Biotech and pins him to retain.

(Cutting and pasting this next one - I was using The Dames' commentary, but I've switched to CRZ's since then (I actually used CRZ for the first few episodes, btw))

Survivor Match - Team Rose vs Violent Conduct.

Match Background: Team Rose consists of Danny Rose, Travis Andrews, Kijimara, and Pierroth Jr.. Violent Conduct consists of Big Bad Brad, Christopher McDonald, Troy Johnson, and Joe Crazy. This will be a survivor series bout. Rose is making his debut at this show.

Pin, but Pierroth is out just before the three count. Pierroth counters a sleeper with a jaw breaker and is able to get free! Weak bodyslam by Pierroth. ONE...TWO...THREE. Pierroth defeats Joe. Second Fall : Pierroth Jr. strikes Christopher McDonald with a hard blow. Pierroth hits a piledriver on Christopher McDonald. I know I wouldn't let someone that bad give me a piledriver.

Travis Andrews stuns Troy Johnson. The Ace!!! 1....2....3!! It's all over. Fifth Fall : BBB scoops and slams Kijimara. What's the difference between a scoop slam and a body slam anyway? BAAACK Body drop by Kijimara gets a bit of a pop from the crowd. Covers for a quick two count. Kijimara avoids a Big Bad Brad avalanche by getting out of the damn way! Powerbomb on BBB. Hooks the leg! ONE...TWO...NO! BBB powers out of a headlock. A sit out full nelson slam on Kijimara. The ref gets into position, administers the three count, and it's over.

The Ace!!! 1....2....3!! It's all over. Final Fall : Wildcard hits a spinning back kick. All those spinning kicks look alike, don't they. Flying elbow off the top rope by Travis Andrews, getting as close to zero air as possible. Pinfall attempt: ONE...TWO...NO! I would have bought that as the finish! Travis Andrews with an enziguri! HBK isn't moving...uh oh. Oh, sorry, I had a flashback to the last time I got fooled. Chris McD reverses a waistlock. Vertical suplex by Christopher McDonald. Christopher McDonald floors Travis Andrews. Travis Andrews gets locked in the Sharpshooter! Submission victory! Winners: Violent Conduct

AJ Styles comes to the ring and hypes his match with Juvi and Ultimo Dragon before a commercial break. (81%)

XCW Cruiserweight Title Match - AJ Styles © vs. Juventud Guerrera vs. Ultimo Dragon

Ultimo rolls Juvi up for a Magistral Cradle, but AJ breaks it up and nails Ultimo with a Shining Wizard, kicks Juvi in the gut after blocking a punch, and hits the Styles Clash on Juvi to retain.

Valeria Cage cuts a promo, and the fans eat it up. (93%)

Ron Killings vs. Jerry Lynn

Jerry Lynn hits a DDT off the top rope, then the Cradle Piledriver for the win. Killings dominates Lynn for most of the match, and they brawl up the entrance ramp afterward.

Kevin Nash hypes the main event, a match between himself and `Demented' Danny Dawson. (75%)

`Demented' Danny Dawson vs. Kevin Nash - 10 Minute Time Limit

The match goes to a time limit draw. At one point, 3D charges Nash, who grabs him and hits the Snake Eyes, but takes an elbow upside the head when he grabs Danny afterward. Only one pin attempt during the match: 3D gets a 2-count on Nash, after a Full Nelson Slam. Nash charges into the corner but eats BIG BOOT right as time expires. Nash refuses a handshake.
