6CW Presents GROUND ZERO 26th November 2014 *Live Coverage*

EWF Atonement

Sparkz rubs his knee as he staggers back to his feet and then he waits for Costello to get up before launching at him…

DF: Superkick…

Costello throws his hands up and he catches Sparkz’ foot. The champion hobbles on one foot, trapped, before Costello swings him around…

JK: DRAGON WHIP!

Sparkz connects with his trailing leg, jacking the jaw of Costello with real venom. Over 2,000 fans are on their feet as Sparkz makes his way over to the corner and he leaps up onto the top rope…

DF: I don’t believe what we are witnessing….

JK; Jason Sparkz is going to do the unthinkable…

DF: This is amazing……….LIGHTNING STRIKE!

Sparkz comes hurtling from the top rope, straight into his patented frogsplash, but Costello rolls away in time, sending the champion crashing into the canvass. The jubilation from the crowd is replaced by foreboding as Costello gets back to his feet, an ugly grimace on his face, and he walks to the ropes.

JK; I think Costello has had enough….

DF: He can’t believe that Sparkz was even able to get out here….and now the champion has been showing him up….

JK: It could all end here…don’t do it Vince….OH DAMN!

The crowd look stunned as Costello climbs to the top rope and then jumps off, landing the two footed “kerb” stomp to the injured knee of Jason Sparkz. The world champion screams in agony, the sound making the fans at ringside wince, and he thrashes around on the canvass. The referee implores Costello to make the cover but he doesn’t look finished…

DF: End this now….referee has to stop it…

JK: if Sparkz’ knee was damaged before then who knows what damage it is in now….

Costello looks around at the crowd, who are looking horrified, and then he looks out towards Daniel Magnusson and points at him.

Costello: This is all on you Magnusson…..you should have just given me the belt…

DF: Costello may have a point…..this could have been avoided…

JK: You have to see it from both sides….Magnusson didn’t just want to hand the belt to Costello, but in hindsight it could have prevented what we are witnessing now…

DF: FIGURE FOUR!

JK: Stop it now…

Costello grabs the injured leg of Sparkz and twists around, dropping back into the figure four leglock. Sparkz’ cries are unbearable and he looks in a great amount of pain as Costello jumps up and down in the hold, applying full and maximum pressure. The referee looks ready to call for the bell when the champion takes the option away from him and taps his hand to the canvass…

JK: He had no other choice…..

DF: Wow…

Ding ding ding

Rick Ambrose: Ladies and gentlemen……………….here is your winner………………..and NEW EWF World Heavyweight Champion……….Viiiinnnnccceeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnttt Coooooosssttttttteeeeelllllloooo!

JK: This is tragic…

EWF Day of Reckoning

JK: What the hell is going on?

DF: Mike Conrad…my god Conrad….

There is a continued staredown between Phillips and Conrad and then the crowd pop as they slap their hands together and hug at the bottom of the aisleway. Inside the ring, Enforcer is all over the place as he gets back up….he looks out of the doorway at Phillips and Conrad, stood side by side, and both men give him the thumbs down as his eyes widen….

JK: WORLD EATER!

DF: YES…..YES…..YES!

Crowd: ONE……

*Ultra pop

JK: OH HELL YES….

DF: HE DID IT…..THEY DID IT……WE WON!

Ding ding ding

JK: Extraordinary scenes here inside the Elite Coliseum….

Rick Ambrose: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner………..representing Team EWF (Crowd pop)…………….and the NEW EWF WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION………..THE VIPER…..LIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMM WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

DF: WHAT A MATCH…..WHAT A NIGHT….WHAT AN HISTORIC MOMENT….

JK: TAKE A BOW TEAM EWF…..LIAM WOOD YOU ARE THE NEW WORLD CHAMPION…OH MY GOD WHAT A MOMENT THIS IS….

The crowd are in utter pandemonium as “666” blasts out of the speakers and Liam Wood is knelt over the blood-stained body of Enforcer. The War Games cell is beginning to lift back into the rafters as the referee walks over to Wood with the TV Championship and his newly won EWF World Championship….

DF: Liam Wood is the sole survivor….he is a double champion….he is the man….

JK: And this night belongs to him and the rest of Team EWF, they brought it like never before and they have condemned FEAR to the mortuary….the war is over and there is a new power in town….

Wood is still on his knees, looking at the championships in front of him, and tears begin to roll from his eyes as he pulls both belts toward his chest. There is a deafening ovation from the fans as Wood staggers over to the turnbuckle and poses….

DF: We did it….we survived the onslaught; we won the war….EWF lives once more….

JK: And the sacrifices of these men should never be forgotten….FEAR may have been one hell of an opponent but EWF showed guts, heart and class to get the job done….I am proud to stand here tonight and say I witnessed that….

DF: And what about Mike Conrad? The double-cross….was this planned from the beginning?

JK: I think it was….they had everyone fooled….but when the time came, Mike Conrad showed where his allegiance truly lied….this is incredible….

Fireworks are exploding from the stage as confetti begins to fall from the rafters and into the ringside area. Jimmy Phillips and Mike Conrad are applauding from the outside, along with the crowd and all of the EWF ring crew. Wood continues to bask in the glory as the show reaches its conclusion….

Crowd: E-Dub-F x10

JK: This is a night that will never, ever be forgotten……the night that EWF fought back from the brink and they overcame….we live to fight another day…

DF: Thank you for joining us folks….we are out of time….next week we will be back, live once more for some EWF Conflict….all the fallout………I cannot wait to see Drake Callihan’s face…

JK: You and me both partner….congratulations to EWF….to Liam Wood……what a night!

*The show goes off the air with Wood still celebrating his victory on the ropes, whilst the entire arena gives him a standing ovation.

6CW Ground Zero 2013

Enforcer blocks the pedigree and he runs Wood backwards and slams him into the upright ladder. Enforcer then pulls Wood back toward him and he flips him into the air for a Powerbomb but Wood hammers punches down into Big E’s face and jumps out the back before spinning him back around again….

HA: WORLD EATER…

Enforcer blocks the knee on the way down and quickly scoops Wood onto his shoulders for a death valley driver but Wood elbows his way off the side and they begin to trade punches once more. Beads of sweat fly through the air as both competitors rock each other to their core…

HE: This is just a fist fight now….this is just about who wants it the most….

Enforcer and Wood continue to hammer away with fists before Big E drives a kick below the belt line, knocking Wood back in pain. Enforcer follows up with stiff uppercuts but somehow Wood responds with a furious combination of punches and chops of his own…

HA: Liam Wood just will not give up….this kid has got balls the size of grapefruits…

HE: Enforcer’s looking groggy….this is bad…..OH MY GOD!

*Crowd silence

HA: What the…

Thunder comes from nowhere with the steel chair in his hand and he swings it toward Enforcer’s head but Big E ducks it and the full force of the impact crashes across the top of Wood’s head, leaving him in a completely unconscious state on the canvass. Thunder looks completely and utterly stunned by what has taken place as Enforcer takes advantage and pulls the chair from his grasp…..CRACK!

HE: Thunder just took out his best friend….

Thunder staggers down to his knees as Enforcer lashes the chair across his spine. Big E then throws the chair away and runs the ropes before drilling into Thunder with a furious “facecheck”. The crowd are booing as Enforcer makes it back to his feet and surveys the damage all around him…

HA: There is nobody left standing….

HE: The pathway is clear Enforcer….your time is now…

Enforcer takes one last look at Wood and Thunder before he hobbles to the ladder and he begins to climb. Slowly but surely he drags himself toward the top and he extends his right arm up toward the championship belt….

HA: Liam Wood was en route to victory….but the chairshot from Thunder has left him a bloody mess…

HE: Look at whichever way you want, brother, Thunder has cost Liam Wood the EWF World Championship…

Ding ding ding

HA: Dammit…

HE: The Authority holds the power now…

Ring Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner………….and NEW EWF World Heavyweight Champion…………..Ennnnnnnfffooooorrrccceeeeerrr!

HE: He said he was going to do it….I told you he was, and here he is….our new world champion…

The crowd are booing as Enforcer unclips the championship and he cradles it in his arms as the match reaches its conclusion. “Saturday night” roars from the speakers as Enforcer smiles to himself and then hoists the championship over his head, basking in his moment of glory…

HA: One of the greatest ladder matches I have ever seen, it truly was a joy to watch…..but the talking point will come when we ask what Thunder was doing out here….and the chairshot that was heard around the world…

HE: Everybody said it would be The Authority getting involved in this match…but they didn’t have to because Enforcer is the best in the business. Thunder showed up, uninvited, and his mistake has cost his best friend his title…

HA: Perhaps The Authority’s grip on 6CW just tightened, Enforcer is the new EWF World Champion…

HE: And that dominance will be completed when either Edward Plague or Orthrus de-throne Nate Nack in our main event…

HA: That match is still to come….but for now this is a sight we are going to have to grow accustomed to….Enforcer is on top of the world tonight….

Enforcer is holding his ribs as he steps down the ladder and back onto the canvass. Liam Wood, blood pouring from his head, is trying to use the ropes to pull himself up but he doesn’t have the energy to do so. Enforcer looks him dead in the eye and smiles at him before kissing the championship belt and then shouldering it. The cameras show Vincent Costello on the outside, a glassy look in his eyes, and then swing around to Thunder lying on his back. Enforcer leaves the ring, laughing at the abuse from the fans, before making his way up the rampway.

HE: I wouldn’t want to be Thunder right now…

Wood is blinking back the blood as he watches his championship disappear up the ramp and then he turns his gaze to Thunder, who is starting to stir, with a look of wide-eyed shock. Enforcer poses with the championship one more time before exiting backstage.

6CW Day of Reckoning

The footage hyping the upcoming bout ends and the crowd are manic with their support. A huge chant of “6C-Dub” is ringing around the Hydro as the lights dim and then “666” screams out to a very mixed reaction from those in attendance…

HA: Tonight has been about gold…later on it will be about the opportunity to headline the biggest event of the calendar year…but right there is one word, one emotion that sums up this next bout….

HE: It’s all about redemption, brother….Liam Wood is desperate for it, he craves it more than anything else in this world and until he gets it he is never going to be able to remove this ever-growing chip from his shoulder…

Pyros and flames erupt from the front of the stage, illuminating the darkened arena, and then the face of Liam Wood appears on the Hypertron screen, speaking through flames.

Wood: Tonight is the night when all roads lead to redemption….tonight I re-define my legacy!

HA: Liam Wood was riding the crest of a wave. The EWF Champion, undefeated TV Champion…but in the space of just a few months the self-proclaimed “Best in the World” has spiralled into the abyss….he is right back down at ground zero and surely the only way is up…

HE: The night that Thunder cost Wood the world championship was the night their friendship fell apart…since then the issues between these two former best friends has escalated beyond belief….tonight they get to settle their differences once and for all…

HA: But will it be settled? We thought it would be sorted after Revolution but defeat to Thunder has only enraged Wood further…it has turned him against his adoring fans and even his beloved girlfriend, Emmy….Wood has shunned every aspect of his life as he obsesses over defeating his one-time ally…

Liam Wood steps out on the stage, his head bowed, and then he slowly raises his eyeline to the ring and breathes deeply. The reaction from the fans continues to blur the lines but Wood doesn’t seem interested as he walks a slow path to the ring…

HE: At one time I thought Liam Wood and Thunder were inseparable but this business shows time and again that the lure of gold and power can turn even the sternest of heads…

HA: These two men were like brothers….but Liam Wood just cannot and will not change his belief that Thunder is to blame for all of his shortcomings….he truly believes that without beating Thunder he cannot achieve any more success in this industry…

HE: Who would have thought we would be standing in a 6CW arena and actually listening to some of these fans booing Liam Wood…

HA: Wood’s new attitude has certainly shocked and disappointed many of his loyal followers….they can’t believe what has changed in such a short space of time…

Wood refuses to tag hands with any of the fans around ringside and then he jumps up on the apron and steps through the ropes. He allows the referee to check him for concealed weapons and then he backs into the corner and begins to stretch…

HA: None of the usual bravado from Wood….he is extremely focused on the task ahead of him. To say it has consumed him would be an understatement…

HE: This is all that matters right now to Liam Wood…forget about Gateway to Glory, forget about world title honours….until he settles the score with Thunder there is no future planning…

HA: Thunder was so reluctant to continue the war but Wood forced his hand, he insulted Thunder personally and professionally….he showed a side that we have never seen before…

HE: This could be the platform for either of these men….a win tonight puts them right in the frame for not only tonight’s Gateway to Glory match but any future title opportunities….

HA: A lot riding on this….but most importantly it is about pride….this really is about proving who the better man is?

Wood is up on his feet and his eyes are glued on the stage as a “Let’s go Thunder” chant rings out around the arena. There is no trace of emotion in Wood’s eyes as he continues to wait and then the lights dim and “Heroes are hard to find” blasts out to a huge reception.

HA: Every fan out of their seats for the arrival of the “Oncoming Storm”…

HE: Is this the night that Thunder proves once and for all that he is just as good if not better than his former friend?

HA: I think Thunder has already done enough to prove he is a match for Wood…but a victory here tonight would add weight to any claims he is the superior athlete…

Smoke billows from behind the curtain and then green pyros shoot high up into the air. Strobe lights cut through the fog and then slowly the lights begin to brighten, revealing an empty entranceway.

HA: Where is Thunder?

HE: I guess he’s keeping Wood waiting…..Thunder had to wait almost three weeks to see Viper after Revolution…

HA: I don’t know, this doesn’t seem like a tactic that Thunder would employ…

HE: Cold feet then? Maybe he knows that Revolution was a fluke and lightning can’t strike twice?

The crowd look concerned and there are some boos as the stage remains unmanned, no sign of Thunder at all. Liam Wood is standing in the middle of the ring with a bemused look on his face. He puts his arms out, as though exasperated, and can be heard shouting to the production team “Where the hell is he?”

HA: This is a very confusing situation right now….Thunder is supposed to be here, he is scheduled for this match….

HE: I guess he bottled it and ran….it is the only explanation….

HA: I don’t like this….

Liam Wood continues to question staff members at ringside about the whereabouts of Thunder but nobody seems to have any idea where he is. Wood is shaking his head and then he begins to talk with the referee in the ring…

HE: Well if Thunder isn’t going to come out here then the referee should start this match and declare Wood the winner by forfeit…

HA: It seems a real shame to end it this way….but is there an alternative?....WAIT JUST A DAMN MINUTE!

Wood is telling the referee to call for the bell when the big screen suddenly lights up and documents a scene taking place in the backstage area. Thunder is shown being thrown across a room and his head collides with a set of lockers, dropping him down his knees. Another figure then moves into shot and the crowd boos furiously…

HE: Haha brilliant…

.HA: THAT DAMN COSTELLO!

HE: He upset me earlier taking the UK Title from Tyler Roth but this makes up for it….

HA: I thought Costello was after The Authority, the fans were starting to warm to him…

The crowd watches on in shock as Vincent Costello picks up a chair and then rushes over and swings it toward Thunder’s head………………CRACK!

HE: JEEZ…

HA: Somebody stop this…

The chair smashes Thunder’s head right into the locker and leaves him slumped on the floor. Costello then kneels over him and pounds him with furious right hands to the face, opening up a deep cut along the hairline…

HA: What is the meaning of this?

Costello’s hands are covered in blood as he picks the chair up again…..CRACK!.....CRACK!.....CRACK!

HE: Thunder is being decimated here…

Time and again the chair finds its target, hammering down across any part of the body that it can find. Costello’s face is contorted with fury as he grabs Thunder’s hair and drags him into a kneeling position. He slams more punches into the bloodied face of the superstar and then begins to drag him away from the scene…

HA: This is heinous….and Liam Wood is just standing there…

HE: I think he is in a state of shock…

The crowd’s boos grow louder as Costello suddenly pushes Thunder out onto the stage and the fan favourite drops to his knees, blood running down his face. Wood makes a move toward the ropes and is about to climb out of the ring when Costello grabs Thunder by the scruff of the neck…

HE: Wood better move fast….

Liam Wood is about to sprint up the rampway when he realises what Costello is about to do. He freezes on the spot as the new UK Champion runs Thunder across and then just throws him off the stage……CRASH!

HA: OH MY GOD!

Crowd: Holy (beep) x10

HE: THUNDER IS BROKEN IN HALF…

The whole arena is going wild as Costello launches Thunder through the air and off the side of the stage. Thunder’s body crashes through three tables and lands on top of one the huge sound systems, sending sparks flying everywhere. Liam Wood quickly sprints down to check on his former friend as Costello steps back from the stage with a smile on his face…

HA: We need EMT’s out here immediately….Thunder is in a bad way…

HE: He’s not moving at all, that was one hell of a landing…

HA: He could have serious spinal injuries….

Costello begins to walk down the ramp toward the ring, soaking up the boos from the crowd, and then he rolls in via the bottom rope. Liam Wood is checking on Thunder and screaming for medical attention as Costello snatches a microphone from the ring announcer…

HA: This was supposed to be the end game in the Liam Wood/Thunder saga tonight….this is where it was supposed to finish…

HE: I’d say it is finished alright…

Medics arrive on the scene with a stretcher and they slowly begin attending to Thunder, although he is still showing no signs of movement. Liam Wood looks aghast at what has happened as Vincent Costello begins to talk…

Costello: Five seconds……just five seconds, Liam, is all it has taken to me to do what you couldn’t manage in almost six months…

*The crowd boo furiously as Wood diverts his attention from Thunder and stares back toward the ring, hatred in his eyes.

Costello: I got fed up of listening to podcasts, reading in magazines, and coming to the arena every week to hear everybody talk about Liam Wood and Thunder. The drama, the excitement, the broken friendship…..talk about a broken record.

And there was all of you (points out to the fans) thinking that good old Vincent was coming to save the day against The Authority….

*He laughs

Costello: You really don’t understand me at all, do you? I don’t care about some pathetic war for power….because I take what I want, when I want….I don’t stand united with anyone and this company can burn to the ground for all I care because all I am interested in is revenge and gaining back what was stolen from me…

*He points back to Wood

Costello: I am sick and tired of everyone putting you up on some kind of pedestal, as though you are what everyone in the back should be aspiring to. I look at you and I don’t see greatness….I see a man who has capitalised on good fortune, created a false sense of success through the timely intervention of dumb luck and the misfortune of others.

*Wood is continuing to glare at Costello as the medics continue to work with Thunder in the background.

Costello: I stood by a watched as you proclaimed yourself the “Best in the World”….whilst everyone lauded you as the best that EWF had to offer….the world champion, the unbeaten TV Champion….Superstar of the Year……but not once did I hear anyone mention the fact that the only reason you stood on the mountain top is because I wasn’t around to throw you back in the gutter where you belong…

*More boos from the crowd

Costello: The only way you could have ever held that EWF strap is because I wasn’t there to stop you….because I was nursing my injuries and waiting for the all clear….because we both know, Liam, that when I am around, you will never be anything more than second best…

*Costello is smiling, evilly, as Thunder is slowly loaded up onto a stretcher

Costello: Your downfall didn’t start because of that loser you called a best friend….your career spiralled out of control because I came back and you realised that you couldn’t keep living a lie….you realised that I can see right through your bull(beep)….that I know that you are nothing but a fraud…

You think beating that piece of crap is going to put you back on track? You think gaining redemption over a nobody suddenly makes you big game once more? You don’t get to make that decision….you don’t get to make assumptions like that….the moment you took what belongs to me is the moment your fate was removed from your hands….the day you stole my prized possession is the day when Costello’s Law issued a warrant for your immediate punishment…I have been waiting for this for a long time and I am going to savour every moment , watching you cling to last desperate remains of your tenure with this company…

This isn’t the dawning of a new era, Liam, this is the end of the line for you….you don’t have another fairytale story in your locker, your glory days were extinguished along with the career of that pathetic waste of space next to you…

*Wood’s hands clench into fists and he begins to move back toward the aisleway

Costello: You wasted your time chasing a ghost, your best days are nothing but a distant memory….and because of your greed and delusion you have turned against everyone that ever cared about you….you turned your back on what you stood for…I may not have ever liked you, Wood, but at least when I was kicking your a55 in EWF you represented all of these losers that cheered you week in, week out…

*The crowd boo furiously as Wood looks around the arena

Costello: You even turned against them, and where has it gotten you? Nowhere. Leave being a bad guy to those of us who are actually good at it…..this empty shell that your walking around in doesn’t suit you….and quite frankly I won’t enjoy ending your career as much if you don’t put up a fight…

HE: I think this one is about to erupt, Harold…

HA: Oh I would bet money on it….Vincent Costello has just put Thunder out of action and now he has set his sights on Liam Wood…

HE: This has been a long time coming….Costello has never forgotten that it was Wood who took his world title when he was out injured…

HA: Months of bad blood is about to come to a head…

Liam Wood suddenly darts forwards, drawing cheers from the crowd, and he dives into the ring to confront Costello but the new UK Champion drops out under the bottom rope with a smile on his face. The crowd boo furiously as Costello backs into the aisleway with a grin and stares back at Wood as he exits…

HA: Oh I can assure you that this one is just getting started…

HE: Costello has really pushed Liam Wood’s buttons tonight….and what about Thunder? What is the extent of the damage?

HA: We will await a report on that but I don’t think it looks good…he was brutalised by Costello and then thrown from the stage. The new UK Champion has made one hell of an impression here tonight…

HE: I love Vincent Costello, he made these fans fall into a trap and then he snapped them right back into reality. They all thought he was “rising against the machine”….that his target was The Authority but he wanted Wood all along…

HA: Costello certainly did a number on the 6CW Universe….just when it seemed like he may be turning a corner, he has probably sunk to an all-time low….

HE: Can he cap off this night by winning the Gateway to Glory?

HA: That remains to be seen….all I know is that Liam Wood will have vengeance on his mind the next time these two men are in the ring together…

Costello winks at Wood and then disappears into the backstage area as Viper climbs from the ring and quickly makes his way to the back to check on the condition of Thunder.

6CW Aftermath 20th April

1………………………2………………………3!

Ding ding ding

The end of the match comes when Costello runs at Roth but the challenger spins him up in the air and catches him on his shoulders for the F-5. Costello, though, is able to drop down and shove Roth against the turnbuckle before spinning him into the black hole slam (Omerta) as he returns.

RA: Here is your winner…..and STILL 6CW UK Champion……Viinnnnccceeennnttt Coooosssttteeellllloooo!

HA: Vincent Costello has knocked off Tyler Roth twice in a row…

HE: Mr Jones is not going to like this….

HA: Big things were expected from The Authority tonight but Tyler Roth has not delivered….

Roth skulks from the ring as “Killing in the name of” roars out and Costello celebrates his win. He climbs on the ropes and poses as the fans boo him and voice their contempt.

HE: These fans wouldn’t know talent if it slapped them in their ignorant faces….Costello deserves to be respected…

HA: That is a matter of opinion…..AND THIS IS A MAN WHO HAS NO RESPECT FOR HIM AT ALL!

The crowd suddenly roar to life as “666” rips through the airwaves and Liam Wood walks out onto the stage. Wood’s face twitches with anger and his eyes glow as he stares down toward the ring and then makes his move. Costello is barely able to climb down off the ropes as Wood sprints down the ring and dives in….

HA: Liam Wood is coming to get him some of Vincent Costello…

HE: This isn’t fair….Costello wasn’t ready…

HA: Neither was Thunder…

Wood tackles Costello the ground and instantly begins driving down with punches and forearms, trying to cause as much damage as he possibly can. Both men roll on the canvass, trading the upperhand, before Costello is able to kick Wood away from him and he rolls under the bottom rope….

HA: What a goddamn coward….stay and fight…

HE: Costello will fight when he is good and ready….not when Wood decides…

The crowd are booing Costello as he rips his UK title from the referee and then climbs over the barricade into the fan section. Liam Wood is glaring at him, hatred evident, as Costello gives him an arrogant wink and then disappears into the masses.

HA: Oh this is just getting started….Costello has awoken a beast inside of Liam Wood and I have no idea what Viper might do in order to get revenge…

HE: Wood has no control….he’s lost it. Look what Costello did to Thunder, he will do the exact same to Viper if he isn’t careful….

HA: Two men who have a storied past…but right now it is all about the future….what will happen next between Vincent Costello and Liam Wood?

Costello disappears as Wood continues to stand in the ring, watching him disappear. The crowd are giving Viper a great reception as the scene goes backstage

6CW Anarchy 30th April

HE: GO TO SLEEP!

HA: Blade’s out…

*Crowd pop

Costello drives his knee up into Blade’s face, leaving him cold, and prepares to drop down and cover when “666” roars out of the speakers. The entire audience is up as Liam Wood marches out onto the stage, fire in his eyes…

HE: What’s he doing here? He shouldn’t be out here…

HA: I don’t think an army could hold Liam Wood back right now…

Wood begins to march down towards the ring as Vincent Costello ponders his next move. The champion moves towards the ropes and orders Wood to back off…

HA: Costello not happy one bit about Wood being out here…

HE: Do you blame him? He is trying to defend a championship….

The trash talking begins between both men as the referee tries to intervene and send Wood away. On the blindside, Reilly rolls back into the ring…

HA: Wait a damn minute….

Blade rushes over and knocks Costello over the top rope, dropping him into Wood’s path. A fist fight breaks out between both men and the referee tries to restore order as Blade turns back towards the centre and eats a sledgehammer shot to the gut…

HE: Priceless…

HA: Not again…

HE: RKO!

Reilly splatters Blade in the middle of the ring and hooks both legs as the referee turns back around to count…

HA: It can’t happen this way…

HE: Oh it can….not even Costello can stop it, he has his hands full…

Costello and Wood are still brawling on the outside as the referee delivers a count…

Ding ding ding

HA: Would you believe it…?

Ring Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen here is your winner……and NEW 6CW UK Champion……..Daaannnniiieeeellll Reeeiiiilllllllyyyyy!

HE: I love it…

Vincent Costello manages to break away from Liam Wood’s assault and he looks enraged as “Broken Dreams” echoes out and the referee raises Reilly’s arm in victory. Costello rounds back on Wood and then grabs a steel chair…

HA: Costello is far from happy…..

HE: Wood’s had his fun now…time to pay…

Wood is smiling at Costello’s rage and then he ducks a wild chairshot from his rival. Wood follows up with right hands before grabbing Costello and hauling him into the crowd…

HA: Someone might want to try and break this up….there is no telling what might happen…

Wood climbs up on the barrier and then dives onto Costello, sending both men toppling into an army of fans. Security try to quickly wade in and break up the fight as the audience goes wild…

HE: Liam Wood should be fined and suspended for his actions…he just cost Vincent Costello his UK Championship…

HA: I’d say what goes around, comes around….Costello brought this all on himself…

Security continue to try to sort the situation out as the cameras pan back around to ringside. Daniel Reilly is swaggering up the ramp, parading his new belt, as Blade is struggling to his knees in the ring.

HA: The big story here is that we have a brand new UK Champion….Daniel Reilly is back among the gold here in 6CW…

HE: Mr Jones is going to be so happy…

6CW Anarchy 10th May

HE: Use the count Reilly, get your composure back…

HA: A couple of more seconds in that submission and Liam Wood could have been in trouble…..

Wood is starting to get back to his feet when “Killing in the name of” screams out of the speakers, drawing huge boos from the Copper Box crowd. Vincent Costello strides out on the stage, a smug smile on his face…

HA: What does Costello want?

HE: He walked out of his own match earlier because he has issues with Liam Wood…

HA: Not tonight he doesn’t….Wood is in a match…

HE: That doesn’t matter to Costello, he is tired of being one upped by this guy…

HA: Please be serious…

Costello begins to make his way down to ringside as Wood gets to his feet, fire burning in his eyes. The trash talk begins between both superstars but Costello keeps to the outside…

HA: Liam Wood needs to keep his focus on this match…he can deal with Costello afterwards…

HE: Easier said than done….

Reilly is back in the ring on the count of seven and he quickly rushes over and grabs Wood by the shoulder, spinning him around…

HE: RKO!

Wood puts the brakes on and pushes Reilly away before kicking him in the stomach when he turns around…

HA: VIPER DROP…OH CMON!

Wood hooks Reilly’s arms but Reilly battles free and manages to swipe Wood’s legs. He drops back and catapults him towards the ropes, where Costello lands a huge right hand to the jaw of his rival…

HE: What a punch……RKO!

HA: Costello had those damn brass knucks on…

Costello drops down off the apron with a smile and kisses the brass knucks on his hand as Reilly drops Wood with the RKO in the middle of the ring…

HA: Dammit….Reilly wins this match….

HE: That will teach Wood for getting involved in Costello’s affairs….he cost Vincent the UK Title and now Costello has returned the favour…

“Broken Dreams” blasts out and the crowd boo as Reilly rolls from the ring and snatches his UK belt from the timekeeper. He raises his belt in the air as he walks past Costello and into the aisleway….

HA: Costello has done enough here tonight, time for him to leave…

HE: You don’t get to make that decision, Harold…

Costello circles the ring, watching Wood struggling to make his feet, and then he grabs a steel chair from the announce area. The crowd are booing as Costello rolls under the bottom rope…

HA: Someone needs to stop this…

HE: Wood has been blasting chunks out of Costello for weeks….payback time…

The referee tries to intervene but Costello threatens him with the chair and scares the official from the ring. Costello then waits for Wood to turn towards him…….CRACK!

HA: DAMN!

The sound goes off like a gunshot as Wood isn’t even able to get his hands up to block any of the impact. The chair thunders off the his head and immediately drops him down to the floor…

HE: Costello is one sick S.O.B….he promised Wood he was going to finish him…

Blood is trickling down the forehead of Wood as Costello drops on top of him and begins to furiously punch away at the cut, sending streams of blood all over Wood’s face. The crimson stains Costello’s hands as he continues his assault…

HA: This is heinous….stop it….

HE: Vincent Costello is making a statement tonight…

More referees storm the ring to break up the action but Costello is finished and gets back up to his feet. He uses Wood’s blood to draw a cross on his chest and then raises his arms as the fans in attendance boo him with serious hatred….

HA: As if this feud wasn’t personal enough already…

HE: Oh I think this is far from “personal” if you ask Costello, he’s just getting warmed up…..Wood wanted this fight and now he is going to find out just how far his rival is willing to go…

The referees call for medics to check on Wood’s injuries as Costello looks down and then climbs out of the ring. Wood is already trying to get back to his feet but his face is covered in a crimson mask and he keeps losing his balance….Costello slicks his hair back and smiles before turning his back and exiting the scene.

Ha: He got it....Wood wins

He: Not so quick, the official has just seen the foot on the rope. Great ring awareness from Joshua

Ha: Yeah, it was really great how Costello planted it there

We see replays of Costello, now at ringside planting the foot of Joshua on the bottom rope after the three count and drawing the officials attention to it. Wood gets to his feet and stares out at Costello, he invites him inside the ring but Costello stands with an evil grin on his face

Wood drags Joshua up to his feet and then kicks him in the mid-section doubling him over and setting him up for what looks to be a powerbomb. Costello jumps onto the apron causing Wood to let go of Joshua and he runs at Costello who drops back down to the outside

He: RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP FROM JOSHUA

Ha: Dammit Costello has no right being out here, first he's cost Wood the match up and now he's distracted him from the task at hand

He: Wood has nobody to blame but himself

Joshua drags Wood to his feet and connects with a vicious headbutt which knocks Wood into the corner of the ring. He whips him with force into the opposite corner and then runs at him with a body splash squashing Wood up against the turnbuckle. Wood falls to the mat and Joshua then turns to Costello at ringside. He slowly makes his way over to the ropes eyes fixed on Costello who backs away wanting no part of Joshua

Ha: I think Joshua wants to fight Costello as well

He: I don't think he cares, let’s get it trending #letthemfight

Joshua turns back to Wood who is slowly getting back to his feet. He backs him against the ropes and Irish whips him across the ring

Ha: INCOMING!!!

crowd: Holy Sh!t x5

Ha: That was awesome from Wood

We see replays as Wood gets whipped across the ring he leaps clear of the top rope and takes Costello out with a suicide dive on the outside of the ring. He gets to his feet on the outside of the ring

He: THATS 6ft6 FLYING THROUGH THE AIR

flash bulbs illuminate around the crowd as Joshua leaps from the top rope to the outside taking Wood down with a flying lariat. He lifts him to his feet before sliding him back in the ring. He turns on Costello then only for the official to intervene and order Joshua back into the ring

Joshua climbs back into the ring. He stands over Wood who pulls himself up using Joshua for support, he grabs him by the head and looks deep into Woods eyes with a sinister look on his face

He: HUGE DDT!!! THIS IS IT! THATS ALL SHE WROTE

ding ding ding

The referee signals for the bell and speaks with the timekeeper

MB: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner as a result of a disqualification.......The Viper LIAM WOOOOOOOOODDDDDD

We see replays of Joshua going for the cover and as the officials hand comes down for the three count Costello slides in the ring and stomps on Wood.

He: Joshua can't believe it, he isn't happy

Joshua grabs Costello by the scruff of the neck and backs him into the corner of the corner of the ring toward McCoy. He again looks at the puppet as if receiving instruction before he arcs his right hand ready to land a huge haymaker when Wood jumps in from behind. He practically dives over Joshua to get to Costello and begins to unleash with a flurry of punches

Joshua grabs Wood from behind and pushes him down to the mat with force before rounding on Costello. Costello manages to get some sharp kicks into the gut of Joshua who overpowers him and knocks him down with a headbutt. He rounds on Wood and meets him with an uppercut to the throat leaving both men in the centre of the ring as security floods the ring and stops Joshua

Ha: Joshua like a man enraged, I do believe he had this match won, but then again earlier so did Wood. But I actually don't think he cares who his opponent is, he just wants to fight

He: Security doing a grand job of isolating Joshua.....BUT THEY FORGOT ABOUT WOOD AND COSTELLO

The crowd are cheering wildly as Wood charges at Costello and clotheslines him over the top rope to the outside of the ring. The two men are on the outside trading right hands, first Wood looks to be getting the upper hand then Costello starts to battle back and take the advantage as more security and 6CW officials run from backstage and struggle to separate the two men. Inside the ring Joshua is pacing like a caged animal trying to find a gap in the line of security

Ha: This was a good match until Costello got involved, could have gone either way

He: But he just couldn't resist, let’s face it this one was always going to boil over before Night of Glory

6CW Anarchy 30th May

*The sound of a heavy commotion is heard backstage as a security guard shouts out.

Guard: Liam! No! Put that down!

*Liam Wood comes into shot carrying a crowbar and slamming it against the wall with every step. The guards try and pull him back, but he shoves a few of them back against some production boxes. Suddenly Wood quickens his pace as Costello briefly comes into shot. He is immediately knocked down with a blow with the crowbar and Wood sets upon him with more blows. Security grabs Liam by the arms and haul him away, but Wood fights them off again and goes back towards Costello.

LM: What did you do to her?!

*Wood holds the crowbar up horizontally and slams it into Costello's throat, choking him against the wall in the process. We see that Costello's forehead is bloody but he appears to be smiling even while struggling to breathe.

LM: WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!

*Costello seems to widen his smile as more security guards pile in and get between the two wrestlers. Wood manages to swing the crowbar one last time, which catches Costello on the jaw. At last, the guards manage to pull Liam away, even when he is seen still fighting to get free. Costello is kneeling on the floor spitting blood, when he turns back towards Wood.

VC: What did I tell her?! I told her the truth Liam! THE TRUTH!

*Wood can still be heard scrapping with the guards out of shot as Costello spits out one last bit of blood from his mouth. He looks back towards the direction that Wood was dragged too, with a wide grin on his face.

HE: Wood wasn't supposed to lay a hand on Costello before Night of Glory....he is serious trouble...

HA: I think Jones has enough on his plate right now...

Night of Glory V

The noise is huge from the audience as Costello jumps from on high to execute the stomp to the back of the head but Wood swings around and drives his knee up into the face of his opponent….Costello is clearly in a different world as Wood collapses on top of him….

HA: One….two…..three….cmon this match should be over….

HE: Not without a referee….

HA: HERE WE GO!

The fans applaud and cheer as a referee comes rushing out from the backstage area. He bombs down the ramp as fast as he can and dives under the bottom rope…
..

…….2
..
..

……………….3!

HE: YES….STILL NOT ENOUGH!

HA: What does it take?

The cameras pan into the crowd to show a number of fans with their hands on their heads. The new referee is telling everyone that Costello managed to get his shoulder off the mat…

HE: When are you people going to realise….there is nothing Liam Wood can do in order to beat Vincent Costello…

HA: Wood has thrown everything at his rival….the best that his arsenal has to offer….and yet Costello is still in this match…

HE: Wood cannot believe it…

Wood is on his knees, exasperated, and looks up at the referee with complete and utter shock. He looks down at Costello, unbelieving, and then staggers over to the corner where the crowbar is…

HA: Don’t do it, Liam….don’t end it like this…

HE: Wood has snapped….he knows he can’t win this match…

Wood comes forwards, bad intentions in his eyes, and he swings the bar towards the Costello’s head but the referee manages to seize the weapon and tries to tug it free…

HA: Wood not giving up on that bar….

Costello manages to take advantage and he clubs Wood in the back of the head with a fierce axe handle smash. Wood drops down on his knees as the referee takes the bar and throws it out of the ring….

HE: Wood was messing about with that crowbar and he took his eyes off his opponent, now he will pay….CURB STOMP…..THAT IS IT!

Costello quickly lifts himself onto the second rope and he dives off with the “curb stomp” that drives Wood’s face right into the canvass. Costello rolls away clutching his ankle…

HA: Costello struggling on that ankle, still feeling the effects of earlier…

HE: But he has enough left, here is the cover…

Costello manages to crawl over and he pushes Wood onto his back………………………..1…………………………..2………………………..3!

HA: Costello is gonna win this damn thing…

HE: Yes he is….

HA: KICKED OUT!

Crowd: Let’s go Viper x10

HA: 20,000 inside the O2 Arena are on their feet….what a match this is….

HE: How…but he can’t…

HA: Liam Wood is so desperate to beat Vincent Costello, he doesn’t know when he is beaten….

Costello gets up and grabs the referee by the shirt before backing him into the corner. He threatens the official but the referee shoves Costello away and warns him about his conduct…

HE: Keep cool, Vincent….this is in your hands….Wood can barely stand up…

Costello turns away, limping slightly, and makes his way over to Wood. He pulls him up by the head and then flips him up in the air for a powerbomb but Wood drops out the back and then levels Costello with a pele kick as he turns around…

HA: Liam Wood just will not stop coming…

HE: Cmon, Vincent….this is Night of Glory, make your name known forever more…

Costello is on the deck, holding his head, as Wood starts to crawl his way over to the corner. Viper uses the ropes to get himself back up to a vertical base and then he steps out onto the apron and starts to ascend the turnbuckle…

HA: These men have been through so much tonight….you have to believe the tanks are practically empty…

HE: They are running of fumes…

HA: And yet Liam Wood is choosing to take one hell of a risk…

Wood makes it to the top rope and he tries to get a measure on himself but Costello gets back up and crunches him with a brutal right hook. Wood falls down on the turnbuckle as Costello climbs onto the ropes and starts to make his way to the top…

HE: Make it count, Vincent…

HA: This is such a dangerous predicament….

Wood begins to battle back and lands with hard punches to the body of Costello but then VC answers back with crashing elbows to Wood’s head. Wood slumps, exhausted, as Costello grabs him and prepares for the superplex….

HA: If this lands then I think Wood is finished….

HE: Of course he is….THIS IS IT!

HA: IT’S ALL OVER!

The superplex looks imminent until Wood responds with another huge punch to Costello’s stomach and then he grabs his rival and delivers a huge top rope “rock-bottom”…

HE: He didn’t…

HA: Liam Wood paying homage to his best friend….THUNDERCLAP!

………3!

HE: I don’t believe it…

HA: Eighteen long months in the making, what a struggle, but finally Liam Wood has secured victory over Vincent Costello…..what a match, what an ending…

The fans are going insane inside the O2 as “666” blasts out and Liam Wood is declared the winner. Viper is struggling to get back to his feet but he staggers up and allows the referee to raise his arm in victory…

HA: It has been such a rough ride since he joined 6CW but Liam Wood now has some foundation on which to build….tonight he has gained retribution for Thunder, for Emmy and most importantly for himself….he has removed that monkey from his back and pinned Vincent Costello….

HE: He had to use someone else’s move to get the win….because there is nothing he can do that is good enough to beat Costello…he knows it and that is why he stole Thunder’s move…

HA: It was the perfect tribute to the man who was put out of action by Costello…you can make all the excuses you want, brother, but Liam Wood adapted when he needed to and tonight he is the man with his arm raised…

Wood looks down at Costello with great dislike and then he stumbles over to the ropes and climbs onto the turnbuckle. He poses at all four corners, soaking in the ovation, as the flashbulbs pop all around the O2…

HA: Vincent Costello fought a heck of a fight, one of the best I have ever seen….but it was not enough tonight….Night of Glory belongs to Liam Wood and nobody can change that…

HE: You think Costello is going to take this lying down? He’ll be back, Wood better watch his back…

HA: We haven’t seen Liam Wood smile like that in a long time...I think a world of pressure just lifted from his shoulders….what a moment…

Costello skulks off into the aisleway, glancing back with anger and envy, before disappearing up the rampway. Liam Wood continues to milk the applause from the fans and then he staggers over to the ropes and climbs to the outside…

HA: If you think that was good folks then you do not want to go anywhere….the main event is up next….

HE: Brilliant….time for Enforcer to get his hands on that Undisputed Championship…

HA: Max Adamson, Enforcer or Nate Nack….who is leaving Night of Glory as the 6CW World Heavyweight Champion?

6CW Anarchy 3rd July

Costello punches his hand into the mat and then he slicks his hair back and stands up. He taunts Wood and ushers him to his feet before running off the ropes…

HE: CURB STOMP!

Wood dodges the jumping foot stomp and he shoves Costello into the ropes before pushing him high into the air as he comes back…

HA: WORLD EATER!

..
…………3!

HE: It’s over…

The bell sounds to end the match and the crowd boo as “Beat the Devil’s Tattoo” plays out of the PA system. The instant replays show Wood nailing Costello with the big knee to the face but then Dubois rolls Wood up from behind with a huge handful of tights…

HA: Jerome Dubois has stolen one here…

HE: He stole nothing, he was just smarter….time to start talking about this guy as a serious title contender…

Dubois rolls from the ring and does a little jig in the aisleway before fist pumping the air. Liam Wood is kneeling in the ring, looking completely taken aback by what has just happened to him.

HA: Liam Wood thought he had the match won but Jerome Dubois snuck in there and grabbed himself a handful of trunks to pick up that victory….

HE: Dubois proving just how intelligent he is…he saw an opportunity and he took it…

HA: This result just not make anything any clearer though in the grand scheme of things….who deserves a shot at the major championships in this promotion?

HE: Did you not just see that match? Dubois won, he deserves it…

HA: But Wood beat him last week, and Costello is still in the mix…

Liam Wood is trying to explain to the referee that Dubois cheated his way to victory but the official is waving the complaint away. Vincent Costello is back up on his feet and looks angry about what has happened when “Porn star dancing” echoes out…

HA: Another appearance from our co-General Manager…

HE: What the hell does this idiot want now?

Dean Andrews steps out on the stage and he smiles at the reaction from the crowd before raising a mic to his mouth.

Andrews: It had come to my attention that there are a few men on this roster, namely the three gentlemen standing in front of me, who believe they should be next in line for a shot at one of this company’s two world championships…

*A huge “Liam Wood” chant springs up

Andrews: And I agree that right now there is a growing pack of superstars waiting in line for their opportunity to prove their worth so it is up to me to do something about it….Jerome, Liam, Vincent….I know you all think you have more of a right than anyone else but chances like these aren't just handed out on a platter…

You all have made good cases but words will only get you so far….in the interest of fairness I have decided to design a match for you that will take place at the Scars and Stripes PPV….the winner of that match will get a contract for a world championship shot…and he will get it anytime he likes….wherever he likes…..I really am offering you the chance of a lifetime here gentlemen…

I am offering you the “Key to the Kingdom”…

*Crowd pop

HA: That is one hell of an opportunity for these three men…

HE: A world championship match at any time? These guys are being offered the opportunity at bypassing fate…they really would have control of their destiny…

Andrews: I don’t think I need to exaggerate the importance of this kind of match…the rest of the roster would kill for this kind of chance….so make sure you seize it with both hands, gentlemen…

*Andrews nods curtly and then turns on his heel and exits into the backstage area, leaving Dubois, Wood and Costello to all stare at one another with intent in their eyes.

HA: The heat just got turned up on the Scars and Stripes PPV….one of these men is leaving with the “Key to the Kingdom”; A guaranteed championship match at any time…

HE: Talk about being offered a golden ticket…

6CW Anarchy July 14th

Wood and Costello trade blows until Wood nails a stiff knee to the stomach and then batters Costello’s head off the top of the steel steps. Costello staggers back into the ringside barrier and Wood makes his way over to him…

HE: WHAT A PUNCH!

HA: He has damn brass knucks on….referee…

HE: He can’t see it…

The crowd are booing hysterically as Costello suddenly swings around and he decks Wood with one huge right hand to the jaw. The cameras pick up on Costello placing something shiny back in his trunks before the action moves back to the ring…

HA: Costello should have DQ’ed there…

HE: Oh shut up…

Gazzy has stumbled over to the ropes and he vaults up for a “starship pain” but finds nothing but Dubois’ knees upon his landing. Gazzy staggers away and Dubois quickly scrambles over and drags him back up…

HE: What a perfect night this is turning into….FORTUNE!

HA: DEEP IMPACT!

The crowd erupt as Gazzy floats over Dubois’ shoulder, spins him around, and then scores with his finisher…

….Costello slides back into the ring…………….3!

HA: Costello was too late…

The cheers ring all around the Copper Box as “Limelight” booms out of the speakers. Gazzy rolls away from Costello and under the bottom rope, a triumphant smile on his face. He stumbles over to check on Wood but Viper is practically out cold…

HA: I think Wood got knocked out by that brass “knucks” shot from Costello….that was a blatant DQ…

HE: The referee can’t call what he doesn’t see…plus Wood is on the winning side anyway, so quite whining…

HA: He doesn’t look much like a winner now…

Gazzy helps Wood up to his feet but Wood pulls away from his partner and insists he can walk by himself. Gazzy looks a little annoyed by Wood as he watches him stagger into the aisleway…

HE: I guess Wood doesn’t want any help…

HA: Gazzy was just trying to be a friend….looks like the tension is rising once again for the “Key to the Kingdom” match…

HE: Either that or Wood is a little sore that Gazzy is Magnusson’s new play thing and he never got the call…

HA: I doubt that is the case…

Costello is standing over Dubois, looking disgusted, and he begins to trash talk his partner. He shakes his head and slicks his hair back before stomping down on Dubois’ head…

HA: Costello taking his frustrations out on his own partner now…

HE: I like Dubois but he dropped the ball tonight…

HA: So he deserves a kick to the head? Costello is mentally unhinged….he just cannot co-exist with anyone…

GazzyD tags hands with the fans and then shares a stare-down with Vincent Costello as he backs into the aisleway, once again having his arm raised in victory by the referee.

HA: If GazzyD gets the pinfall at Scars and Stripes then he will have the “Key to the Kingdom”…

HE: He got lucky tonight…in ten days it will be a whole different ball game, every man for himself, and he won’t be smiling when it is all over…

(Emmy is standing backstage looking at the Scars and Stripes poster. A couple of fans startle her as they suddenly appear and walk past. She shakes her head, chastising herself for getting wound up. She continues to look at the poster, drinking her coffee and lost in her thoughts. The camera suddenly picks up something in the corner of the corridor and Emmy turns round. When she notices nothing is there, she bites her lip and starts to walk off.)

Emmy: Time to see how Liam is doing……

(The camera faces her as she starts to walk down the corridor. She strides through a set of double doors that shut loudly behind her almost instantly. Emmy continues to walk when the sound of the double doors closing again can be heard. She turns round quickly and the camera shows that no-one is there. Emmy looks about her with a puzzled expression on her face. She turns back around only to be met by the sight of Vincent Costello directly in front of her. She immediately drops her coffee cup to the floor and Costello looks down at it.)

VC: Clumsy……

(Emmy goes to leave but Costello blocks her path.)

VC: Don’t worry……I won’t keep you for long. I am sure you are going to run off to your wimp of a boyfriend crying again. We wouldn't want that would we?

(He looks down at Emmy, who stays silent and looking worried.)

VC: It doesn't matter how happy you seem. Or how much you try and forget. I will always be watching. I haven’t barely scratched the surface of your little relationship yet. Wood may have believed that a new chapter began after Night of Glory, but Costello’s Law states that the story has yet to reach the right conclusion…….

(He leans in closer to Emmy who turns her head away. He then whispers into her ear.)

VC: I will always be close. Find comfort in that…..

(Emmy pulls herself away and runs down the corridor. Costello watches her leave, with a sick smile on his face.)

Key to the Kingdom

HA: Wood is desperate to regain that hold on a world title…

Wood slams the steel chair down on the legs of GazzyD, forcing him to break the submission immediately. Gazzy rolls away in pain…

HA: Wood has never shied away from the fact that he will go as far as he needs to in order to get the job done…

Costello pulls himself out on the apron to soothe his ankle as Wood stands in the middle of the ring with the steel chair. He throws the weapon aside and then he grabs Gazzy, pulling him into the middle of the ring…

HA: Liam Wood looking to close the show….VIPER…

*Crowd boo

Dubois sneaks in behind and he drives his fist into the nether regions of Liam Wood. Viper drops down on his knees, winded, as Dubois staggers up and then lifts Wood up on his shoulder…

HE: I knew Dubois still had it….CULTURE SHOCK!

HA: Dubois stealing this…

Dubois drills Wood with the “dominator” powerbomb and he drops into the cover, an arrogant smile on his face..

HE: DUBOIS HAS THE KEY TO THE KINGDOM…

HA: WOOD KICKED OUT!

HE: NO WAY!

*Crowd pop

Dubois up on his feet, dancing and celebrating, but the referee pulls down his arm and tells him Wood kicked out. Dubois looks scandalised and he backs the official up into the corner, spit flying from his mouth…

HE: This referee should be suspended for incompetence….Dubois had the three…

HA: Wood got his shoulder up, it was close but I saw it from here…

Dubois pushes the referee in the chest and wags his finger before turning away in disgust. He shrugs off the boos from the crowd and then he pulls Wood back up…

HE: The referee can’t screw him twice in a row….Dubois is pulling the trigger this time, FORTUNE!

Wood floats over the back of the suplex and he manages to push Dubois away, straight into the path of GazzyD…

HA: DEEP IMPACT!

*Crowd pop

HA: IT’S OVER….I DON’T BELIEVE IT!

HE: OH HELL YES!

The crowd in the arena are going wild as Costello wobbles in behind Wood and he rolls him up. Costello grabs a handful of tights and he places his feet on the ropes as he makes the cover, unbeknown to the referee…

HA: This is an outrage….Vincent Costello just cheated to win this damn match…

HE: You didn’t care when Liam Wood was stealing gazzyD’s pinfall….but all of a sudden Costello is the bad guy…you are a hypocrite, brother, but in reality it doesn’t matter….Vincent Costello has his hands on the “Key to the Kingdom”…

HA: Lord have mercy…

Costello rolls under the bottom rope, unable to hide his glee, and he hobbles over to the display cabinet before ordering it to be opened. Costello snatches the briefcase out and he holds it above his head…

HA: The whole landscape of 6CW just altered….Vincent Costello has a world championship shot any time he likes….he is now in possession of the most deadly weapon in pro-wrestling…

HE: I am so pleased…I wanted either Dubois or Costello so this is a happy day for me….Costello is heading back for the big time…

HA: All four men came so close, less than seconds away….but in an almighty scramble at the end it is Vincent Costello who got the final say…

Costello hobbles around the ring, grinning, and he looks back to the ring to see the furious expression on Liam Wood’s face. Costello kisses the briefcase and laughs before winking at Wood and making his way into the aisle…

HA: Dubois was seconds away, then GazzyD, then Liam Wood…it really could have swung for any of these four outstanding athletes but Costello has the win and Costello has the briefcase…

HE: Our world champions will have been watching that with intrigue and a little uneasiness…Costello is dangerous at the best of times, but with the “Key to the Kingdom” he just became a walking timebomb for one of our titleholders…

HA: Costello has the “key”….now we sit back and wait for him to try and unlock the door…it could happen at any time…

HE: As for the rest of these guys, I guess hard luck and try again next time…

HA: They’ll be back, all three showed why they are so highly rated….they may not have won tonight but success could be just around the corner…

Costello stands on the top of the stage, grinning at the thunderous boos from the crowd, and he holds the briefcase over his head once more before turning around and making his way into the backstage area.

Main Event (later that night)

The crowd are voicing their anger as the referee makes his way across and starts to count…
..
..
…1
..
..
…..2
..
..
………..3!

HA: Not like this, surely…

Ding ding ding

HE: YES….TAKE A LOOK, HAROLD….THE AUTHORITY HAVE CONTROL…

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen here are your winners……and NEW 6CW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS…..Maaaaxxxx Aaaaddddammmsssoooonnn and Ennnnfffooooorrrrccccceeeeerrrr!

HA: So much animosity between both teams, so much bad blood and mistrust but in the end it was The Uprising that imploded and The Authority have taken full advantage…

HE: Just like I said they would…Masters and Harris cost each other world titles on several occasions tonight, I knew they couldn’t put their egos aside….The Authority have once again prove why they are the dominant faction….The Uprising is dying in front of your eyes…

The crowd are booing and showing their hostility as Bad Intentions pull Max Adamson from the ring. Blood is streaming down Max’ face, from the sledgehammer shot, and he can’t stand up as Carter and Porter pick up his 6CW Championship and newly won tag belt…

HA: Max Adamson knows what a fight he was in tonight, he can’t even walk out of here under his own power….

HE: And Enforcer is barely moving but he they still won, that is all that matters…

HA: Bad Intentions have repaid Mr Jones’ faith in them, they have ensured that the world titles remain in the camp of The Authority and that the tag titles now belong to them as well…

HE: What a night for Mr Jones…

HA: And it is back to the drawing board for Daniel Magnusson and Dean Andrews, how will they react to this major setback?

HE: They can’t….it is only a matter of time before they collapse altogether…

Max is still struggling to stand up as Carter and Porter help him up the ramp and into the backstage area, litter being aimed at them during their journey. Mike Masters and Scott Harris are both in a heap on the outside…

HA: Fantastic effort from Harris and Masters, they showed that they belong at the top level….but together they are far too combustible….their dislike for each other has cost them their tag titles and the world titles….

HE: They cracked under pressure….

HA: Haven’t Bad Intentions forgotten someone? They were in such a hurry to get Max out of here….

Enforcer is in the middle of the ring, still covered in blood, and he stumbles to the ropes and drags himself up. He watches Bad Intentions and Max Adamson disappear before he pulls his EWF belt and his newly won tag team title from the referee…

HE: Enforcer has once again proven what a dominant champion he is…despite the drama and underlying issues, he worked with Max Adamson and they got the job done…

Match result: Max Adamson & Enforcer via pinfall (New Champions)
Match time: 22 minutes, 50 seconds.

.*CROWD POP

HA: OH MY…

Suddenly “Killing in the name of” booms out of the speakers and Vincent Costello comes walking onto the stage. He has a focused expression on his face, the KTTK briefcase in his hands,…

HE: Oh wow….now? Where are The Authority….

HA: That’s what I would like to now….Enforcer is a sitting duck…

Costello marches his way down to the ring and he quickly climbs up onto the apron. Enforcer drops his titles and tries to come forward but Costello smashes the briefcase into his head, covering it in Big E’s blood…

HE: I knew Costello would be dangerous with that case but I didn’t expect him to cash in now…

HA: Vincent Costello won the “Key to the Kingdom” match just over an hour ago….a guaranteed title shot whenever he wants it….he senses an opportunity here and he is going to take it…

HE: This is insane…

Costello pushes the briefcase into the hands of the referee and tells him what he wants. The official nods and gives the signal to the timekeeper…

Ring Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the EWF World Heavyweight Championship!

*Crowd pop

HE: I can’t believe it…

Ding ding

HA: An impromptu match here to end the Scars and Stripes PPV….Enforcer has, seemingly, been left high and dry by his cohorts….and now Vincent Costello has struck….

Costello runs into Enforcer and he knees him in the face before dropping down on top of him and he begins to furiously land punches, staining his hands with Enforcer’s blood. Costello then stands and he looks down at Enforcer, plotting his next move, before he runs against the ropes and comes back….

HE: CURB STOMP!

Costello stomps Enforcer’s head down into the mat and he covers him….

HA: KICKED OUT!

HE: ENFORCER IS INHUMAN!

Vincent Costello slicks his hair back and stares at the referee with disbelief. The official tells him it was a definite two count so Costello shoves him out of the way and makes his way to the ropes. He climbs up to the top rope, a manic glint in his eye, and he waits for Enforcer to start standing before jumping….

HA: ANOTHER CURB STOMP!

HE: Enforcer won’t get up from that one…

Enforcer’s head is once again flattened into the canvass and Costello makes the pin…

HA: HE DID IT…

HE: I CAN’T BELIEVE IT…

Ding ding ding

Ring Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner…..and NEW EWF WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION….VIIINNNNCCCEEEENNNNT COOOOSSSTTTTEEEELLLLLOOOO!

HA: Costello has done it…it’s been a year but finally he has got the EWF Championship back around his waist…

HE: That is the power of having the “Key to the Kingdom”…Costello earned that and he has capitalised…

Bad Intentions slide into the ring but it is too late. The referee’s hand hits the mat and Costello immediately rolls from the ring with the EWF belt. He holds it close to his chest and grins as the official holds his arm in the air…

HA: What took Bad Intentions so long? Why on earth did they take Max out of the arena but leave Enforcer to fend for himself? I don’t particularly care but you have to wonder…

HE: They did everything right until the end….Enforcer could barely stand after what he went through...

HA: When Enforcer comes to I would imagine that Mr Jones is going to have one irate former world champion on his hands…

Costello climbs over the barricade and he holds the EWF belt into the air before grinning at Bad Intentions and he disappears into the crowd.

HA: What a way to end this pay per view, so unexpected….we crowned new tag team champions, Max Adamson and Enforcer de-throning Scott Harris and Mike Masters….but then Vincent Costello struck, cashing in KTTK, and he has ripped the EWF belt from Enforcer….what a landscape changer…

HE: This has altered the entire night…..what a historic moment…

HA: We are out of time folks, thank you for joining us, I fully recommend you tune into Aftermath for all the fallout from this amazing pay per view….how is Enforcer going to react? What is next for the war between The Authority and The Uprising? How will Vincent Costello celebrate his new reign as the EWF Champion…?

HE: I can’t get my head around it, what a night….

HA: Goodnight folks!

The show goes off the air with a bloodied Enforcer on the mat, Bad Intentions standing over him with worried expressions, as Vincent Costello walks through the Elite Coliseum with the EWF Championship in his arms.

6CW Aftermath 8th August

The crowd holds their heads in their hands as Wood rolls off looking dejected. The two men are down and breathing heavily as replays show just how close Wood was to winning. Somehow Black gets his shoulder inches off the canvas, but enough to break the count. Wood at last gets to his feet and looks around the crowd, who are still cheering him on. He looks at Black, before striding over and sitting on his back.

HA: VIPER LOCK!

Wood has the submission finisher locked in and arches backwards while holding Black in a full nelson. This time Black is the one that yells in pain and he looks close to submitting right away.

HE: WHAT THE?!


Suddenly the arena screen comes on and shows the Emmy walking in the backstage corridor. At this, Viper releases the hold and walks over to the ropes. He watches intently as the scene plays out.
Emmy is still walking backstage with a nervous look on her face. She looks over her shoulders a few times and quickens her pace. She obviously feels uneasy as her footsteps echo around the corridor. At last she comes to a door and she carefully pulls the handle down, trying to not make any noise. When the door creaks open, Emmy winces at the sound made. Opening slightly ajar, Emmy peers in to what we can see is a dressing room. She pops her head out and looks up and down the corridor a few times. Then, taking a deep breath in, she enters the room and closes the door behind her.
HA: Well that was eerie……what was wrong with Emmy?

HE: Hang on, it hasn’t finished………


As Wood continues to watch the screen, whiling holding the ropes tightly.
As the camera continues to focus on the door that Emmy walked in, the camera starts to pan out very slowly. We then see a smiling Vincent Costello looking at it with eyes wide. He takes a few steps forward and places his hand on the door handle.The crowd looks on nervously as the arena screen goes black.
HA: WOAH! THAT ISN’T GOOD!

HE: BLACK!

With Wood just about to dive out of the ring, Black comes up and hits him with a bridged German suplex. Wood’s shoulders hit the mat and the referee starts to count.

HE: BLACK WINS!

HA: I DON’T THINK WOOD CARES!

As the official counts three, Black releases his grip and holds a hand up in celebration. Wood quickly rolls out of the ring and starts to sprint up the aisle. The referee holds Blacks arm up higher to signify the win, but all of the crowds eyes are on Wood as he bursts through the curtain. Black looks on annoyed before snatching his arm away from the bemused official.

HA: Black wins a hard fought battle……..but now everyone wants to know just what is about to happen to Emmy

HE: Wood won’t make it…….

Match result: Jackson Black via pinfall
Match time: 6 minutes, 50 seconds

.*The camera switches to backstage as a frantic Viper sprints down the corridor, reaching the locker room he bursts through the door

LW: Costello, you son of a ……………….

*Wood stops mid sentence as the camera shows the room empty except for Emmy sat happily texting on her phone; she lifts her head surprised by the interruption

E: Liam, aren’t you supposed to be in a match?

*Wood is breathing heavily, the veins in his neck pulsating at a rate of knots

LW: But, I saw………….Where??????

*Emmy looks confused

E: Liam, calm down, you’re scaring me, what’s the matter?

*Wood walks towards his girlfriend, pulling her into an embrace, he holds her tightly in his arms as the camera fades

6CW Anarchy 28th August

HA: Not what Cagero was looking for…

Wood sidesteps and sends Cagero through the ropes into the ring-post. Wood then grabs him by the scruff of the neck and hauls him over the top rope. Cagero lands hard on his spine and lies there, in agony, as Costello sneaks back in behind Wood with a brutal low-blow…

HA: This is horrible….Liam Wood is being cut down here, he has no support…

HE: This is exactly what Vincent Costello wanted…it wouldn’t surprise me if he gave Cagero the idea of taking out Bam…genius…

Cagero staggers back to his feet and looks ready to climb back into the ring but Costello shakes his head and points Cagero away. Cagero looks ready to argue but the cameras hear Costello saying “This is mine….you’ve had your fun”. Cagero nods and heads up the ramp…

HA: Simon Cagero has more than left his mark on proceedings this evening….what a vile human being he really is…

HE: Don’t hate because you ain’t, brother…it does not suit you…

Costello then turns his attention back to Liam Wood. The crowd are booing furiously as Costello slicks his hair back and laughs at what he has done. Wood is trying to get back to his knees as Costello picks up the steel chair and stands over his rival…

HA: Enough now, this has gone too far already…

HE: I don’t think Costello has even begun…

Costello turns the chair on its edge and drives it down into Wood’s spine…..CRACK!.....CRACK!.....CRACK!.....CRACK!....CRACK!.....CRACK!.....CRACK!

HA: We need security out here….someone do something…

Wood’s yells of pain fill the air as Costello continues to drive the chair down into his spine. Costello is smiling at his handiwork…

Costello: You like that, Wood?....You want me to stop? Beg…..BEG!

HA: Costello is a sick, twisted individual….

The referee tries to intervene but Costello threatens him with the chair and sends him scarpering from the ring. Costello then lifts the chair over his head and brings it crashing down towards Wood’s skull…..CRACK!

HE: Oh my…

HA: This is too much…

The chair thunders off Wood’s head and leaves him unmoving in the middle of the ring. Costello throws the chair down and he begins to laugh at the crowd, antagonising them into booing even more….

HA: Costello is proud of what he has done…

HE: He has sent a message…Liam Wood wants a shot at the world title and now he knows exactly what he has to endure in order to have any chance of taking away Vincent’s most prized possession…

The crowd begin to cheer as Wood starts to stir beneath Costello’s feet. VC looks slightly surprised but then he shakes his head and climbs out of the ring, ripping up the ring apron….

HA: What now?

HE: Wood needs to just stay down, he is only prolonging the agony…

HA: Liam Wood will never lie down, not for anyone…

Costello takes his time to search under the ring and then he pulls back up with a large, heavy object in his hands.

HA: You have got to be kidding me….

HE: Now I think this might be going too far…

Costello pushes a cinder block under the bottom rope and then he rolls back in, a mad glint in his eye. Security and a team of referees are trying to climb into the ring but Costello grabs the steel chair and starts swinging, causing everyone to back off and give a very wide berth…

HA: What the hell is Costello doing with that cinder block? He can’t use it as a weapon…

HE: I think that is exactly what he is going to do…

HA: Liam Wood can’t even get up….this is totally uncalled for…

Wood, blood streaming down his face, is on all fours and trying to push himself upwards. The crowd are looking anxious as Costello then picks the cinder block up and ambles towards his opponent…

HA: No…cmon, Vincent….if there is any shred of decency inside…

HE: There really isn’t….

HA: You’ll kill him……OH MY GOD!

HE: Get the medics….this night is turning into sheer carnage….the medical bills will be huge…

HA: Liam Wood needs serious attention….this is heinous…

Costello hovers over Wood, a sick look on his face, and then he brings the block down and crashes it across the back of Wood’s head, knocking him completely unconscious and destroying the block at the same time. Costello drops to his knees besides Wood, a look of pure satisfaction on his face…

HA: This whole situation between these two world class athletes has gone too far….this is about much more than world championships…

HE: Both these men live to be world champion but their personal hatred for one another is taking this to a whole new level…

HA: Liam Wood may be out of action for some time after that….his neck may be broken, he is lucky to still be breathing…

Emmy accompanies medics down to the ring and she looks distraught, horror on her face. Costello looks out at her, grinning, and then he lifts Wood’s bloodied head off the mat to show her what he has done…

HA: This guy is psychotic…

HE: I don’t think Emmy should be out here, Costello has his eye on her…

HA: He better leave her alone….

HE: Are you going to protect her?

Costello stands up and pushes Wood’s head back into the mat before walking to the ropes. Emmy quickly moves to the opposite side of the ring, behind a team of security guards, as Costello drops down to the outside. He points at her and says “I’ll see you soon” but laughing and turning into the aisleway. Wood is slowly lowered from the ring and placed on a gurney, a neck brace fitted for precaution. Emmy has tears running down her cheek as she holds her boyfriend’s hand…

HA: This is a sorry, sorry sight….we saw the Red Arrows seriously injured earlier tonight, poor Bam Sparkleston had a glass broken in his face and now this….it makes you anxious for the rest of the show….

HE: I think 6CW will have their very own ward at the local hospital….the injury list is growing…

HA: We hope that Liam Wood is ok but the early signs don’t look good….Vincent Costello has done a real number on his arch-rival tonight….

HE: This is far from the last we have seen of this…

HA: Unfortunately I think you are right…

6CW Anarchy 7th September

*Crowd pop

Costello is about to bring the chair down on Bolan’s head when he is spun around and blasted by a series of right hands from Liam Wood, who has just jumped the fan barrier. Wood continues to blast Costello with punches until VC staggers back to the opposite barrier and then Wood clotheslines him over the top into the crowd…

HE: Where did he come from? I didn’t think he was here…

HA: Wood wasn’t medically cleared to compete but nothing is stopping him from being here….and I suppose if he wants a fight then nobody is going to stop him…

Wood climbs onto the barrier and dives into the crowd, knocking Costello back to the floor and then he drills him with right hands. Costello tries to scramble free and make a break for it but Wood keeps chasing him…

HA: This is almost two years in the making between these two men, the hatred is at the highest possible level it could be…

In the ring, Bruce Bolan is just about getting back to his feet when Ojore comes marching down to the ring, his eyes firmly locked on the man in the ring.

HE: Bruce Bolan’s night is about to go from bad to worse…

HA: I guess Ojore isn’t over what happened last week…

Ojore climbs into the ring and he quickly grabs Bolan by the head and drags him up. The crowd are roaring as Costello and Wood continue to fight through the arena and then Ojore lifts Bolan into his arms…

HE: WORLD’S STRONGEST…

Bolan jumps over the back of Ojore’s shoulders and then he rolls through the big man’s legs as he turns around before exiting the ring. Bolan staggers into the aisleway and looks a little unsettled as he stares back at an enraged Ojore…

HA: Smart move from Bruce Bolan….he knows he is hurt and right now a fight with Ojore is not necessary…

HE: But there is a target on his back and I guarantee Ojore won’t stop until he gets his hands on Bolan….it is only a matter of time…

HA: Bruce Bolan has made a great deal of fans since joining 6CW but he has also made a very big, angry, and powerful enemy…this is far from done…

Ojore shakes the ropes and lets out a roar as Bolan disappears up the ramp and into the backstage area. The cameras then pan into the audience and we catch up with Liam Wood and Vincent Costello, who are brawling on the first tier…

HA: This fight has been carried up into the first floor of seats….dangerous place….

HE: The feud between these two men is “dangerous” so I don’t think that surrounding is out of place…

Liam Wood grabs Costello by the head and throws him into a stack of chairs, sending Costello sprawling across the floor. Wood then makes a beeline for his foe but Costello is able to grab a chair, turn it on its side, and then jab it up into Wood’s gut…

HE: If Wood thought he was going to outfight Vincent Costello in this kind of environment then he is stupider than he looks…

HA: After the injuries sustained by Liam Wood just ten days ago it may not be the wisest choice to pursue this fight right now…

Wood staggers away, winded, and Costello stumbles behind him and lashes the chair against his spine, knocking Wood down on his knees. Costello then kicks Wood in the ribs, rolling him closer to the first floor balcony….

HE: That is an almost ten foot drop, Wood’s neck can’t take a fall like that…

Costello, still holding the chair, walks closer but then stops and he calls for a mic to be passed to him by a production member. The crowd are booing furiously as Costello begins to talk…

Costello: You know, Liam, I probably could have guessed you would come after me tonight, in fact I knew exactly what you were going to do….you are that predictable. I had hoped that maybe, just maybe, what I did to you ten days ago might actually make you realise that coming after me is the most foolish thing you could ever do….but yet here you are!

HA: Liam Wood needs to try and get out of this position….DAMMIT!

Costello jabs the chair down into the back of Wood’s neck, making sure that Viper cannot get back to his feet. He then places his foot on the back of Wood’s head, keeping him in place.

Costello: Two weeks ago you proclaimed that you would do whatever it took to engineer a match with me for the EWF Championship….you claimed that the reason for that was because of my “obsession” and “stalking” of your precious girlfriend, the delightful Emmy…it certainly convinced all of these people, these stupid, pathetic sheep…

*The crowd boo

Costello: But I saw right through it, Liam, you are as transparent as ever….this isn’t about Emmy, it never has been and it never will be….that two penny (beep) is a dime a dozen, you could pick up another one like her at any tattoo parlour in this stinking city…..this is about your selfish, childish, pathetic ego that controls each and every one of your actions and emotions…your sad desire to be constantly patted on the back, told you’re the best, and loved by all…

This is about the EWF Championship….and the fact that you don’t have it….I do!

HE: Costello is telling the truth….Wood would never have the balls to say it how it is…

Costello: Don’t dress it up, Liam, don’t pretend to be a superhero because it doesn’t suit you….everyone knows what I do to grown men who wear spandex and pretend to be a world saver….have you heard from Thunder recently?

*The crowd boo and Costello grins

Costello: I crushed his dreams and his spine because he was another man who couldn’t see reality through his oversized arrogance and ego, he believed he was better than he was, he believed he was relevant….but just like everyone else who breaks Costello’s Law, he paid the price…

And now, Liam, you are going to pay the price…you are going to serve your sentence….and just because I can I am going to take everything from you and leave nothing…..your dignity, your career, your chance at being a world champion…and just before your eyes close for the final time I am going to show you how a real man treats a woman like yours….

HA: Costello is a disgusting piece of work…

Costello: You want a shot at the EWF Championship, Liam, then I have absolutely no problem in granting it…..it will be a pleasure to finally end this once and for all, end you and this ridiculous notion that you belong on the same level as me…

You were a big deal once, way back when EWF was just finding its feet, but face facts because ever since 6CW opened up its doors you have fallen into obscurity…..you have failed to adapt and you know what happens to something that fails to evolve in new surroundings? It becomes extinct…

And that is exactly what is going to happen to you, Liam…..at Beachfront Brawl I will put the EWF Championship on the line and just for you, to prove I am and always will be better than you, I will give you the opportunity to pick any stipulation you like….

HE: What a kind, fair guy Costello is…

HA: Real fair…

Costello: But let it be known that there is a very high probability that you won’t even make it to Australia….because thanks to you I just lost a match to a man who debuted ten days ago…..I don’t like losing, Liam, I don’t react well to it…you disrespected me once again, you embarrassed the heavyweight champion of the world…for every action there is a consequence…and this is yours….

HA: Oh no…cmon….you’ll break his neck…

Costello shoves Wood’s head forward with his foot, pressing it down on the front of the balcony, and then he raises the chair up over his head and brings it crashing down….

CRACK!

HE: AHHHHH!

Wood somehow pulls himself free and sends Costello stumbling forwards, clattering his chin into the railing of the balcony. Wood scrambles up and he quickly grabs the steel chair before swinging…..CRACK!

HA: What a shot…

CRACK!

CRACK!

CRACK!

Each chairshot thunders off the top of Costello’s head until he staggers to the edge of the balcony and then falls, landing with a dull thud on the concrete floor below. The arena is going insane as security move in to make sure the crowd cannot get near Costello….

HE: He’s killed him….

HA: Don’t be stupid….Costello is breathing but he damn sure isn’t moving after that, Liam Wood just knocked him off of that balcony with a serious of brutal chairshots…

HE: That is heinous…

HA: It is no worse than what Costello did to Liam Wood last week….but this rivalry needs to find a conclusion because one of these men is going to end up seriously injured or worse….

HE: Well Liam Wood can pick any match he likes….Costello gave him the option…

Medics are on the scene and checking on Costello, who is showing some movement, as Liam Wood continues to look down from the balcony. Wood then picks up the mic that Costello was using…

Wood: I’ll see you at Beachfront Brawl, Vincent….and when you wake up I hope someone passes on the message….me and you…I QUIT MATCH!

*Crowd pop

HE: Oh wow…

HA: Oh wow indeed….Liam Wood & Vincent Costello in an “I Quit” match for the EWF Championship at Beachfront Brawl….this personal rivalry is about to go to a whole new level…

HE: The only way to win is to make your opponent utter the words “I quit”….what are these men going to do to each other?

HA: I shudder to think….it is going to be carnage in Sydney…

6CW Beachfront Brawl

The crowd groan and scream as Costello spins Wood around and drills him with a “black hole” slam onto the glass. Wood’s screams fill the air once more, blood streaming from his body, and Costello looks up at the referee…

Costello: ASK HIM!

The referee drops down next to Wood and he places the mic in close…

Ref: Have you had enough, Liam?

Wood: N…no….nooooo!

HE: The agony is etched all over Liam Wood’s face…but his pride is getting in the way…

HA: Pride comes before the fall….these two young lions have gone beyond anything I ever expected from them tonight….

Costello wipes blood from his nose, clearly annoyed with Wood’s decision, and then he begins to root in his trunks. After a moment he produces a pair of handcuffs and he locks Wood to the middle rope…

HA: What now?

HE: Liam Wood is going nowhere…..Costello’s Law has served him his sentenced…

The crowd look worried as Costello rolls away with a smile on his face. Liam Wood tries to free himself from his restraints but he can’t.

HA: Wood is handcuffed to the ropes….he is now at the mercy of the champion…

HE: Costello can do whatever he likes…

Costello pulls himself under the ring and drops to his knees as he searches under the ring. He then stands back up with a baseball bat in his hands…

HA: Oh my…

HE: Oh my indeed…

Costello smirks as he rolls back into the ring and approaches his opponent. Wood tries to kick out at Costello and keep him at a distance but VC just swings the bat into Wood’s knees…

HA: Costello can barely stand himself…his back, his legs and his hand have been obliterated….but his hatred of Liam Wood is driving him…

Costello then unloads with the bat into the gut of Wood, knocking all the wind from him. The referee tries to step in but Costello wards him off and then fires in another seven unanswered blows to the body…

HE: Wood’s insides are being destroyed…

Wood slumps and blood begins to leak from his mouth, dripping down onto the canvass. Wood’s eyes are closed as the referee walks forward…

HA: Liam Wood needs to end this now…

Referee: Liam, can you hear me….cmon now, Liam….this is enough now….what do you say?

Slowly, Wood raises his eye, blood still running from his mouth, and he looks up at Costello and then at the referee before shaking his head. The crowd give a cheer but Costello shakes his head and draws the bat back again…

HA: No please….STOP!




.Costello suddenly lowers the bat as Emmy comes running down the rampway towards the ring, frightened concern on her face. Security and a team of referees follow her, trying to stop her from getting in the ring…

HE: What is she doing here?

HA: Please go back, Emmy….this isn’t the right place for you…

Emmy rolls into the ring and she stands in front of Liam Wood, begging Costello to leave him alone. She holds Wood’s head close to her chest, tears in her eyes, and pleads with Costello to stop…

HA: Please get out of there, Emmy…

Costello looks at Emmy and then at Wood, a sick grin crossing his face, and then he throws the bat down on the floor. Everyone looks stunned by Costello’s actions and Emmy nods in thanks..

HE: Costello giving Wood a reprieve?? Who would of thought it….

HA: TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF HER….

The audience explodes with boos as Costello grabs Emmy by the hair and yanks her away from Wood. He holds her in the middle of the ring and grins as she struggles against him. Liam Wood is going crazy and kicking out with fury, screaming at Costello to leave Emmy alone…

HA: You sick S.O.B….leave her…

HE: I can’t even defend this…

Costello draws Emmy in close and locks her head under his arm, as though he is going to DDT her. He stares at Wood, evil intentions in his eyes, and Wood motions for the referee to bring the mic over…

Wood: Please, Vincent…..look at me……please don’t hurt her…..please

HE: Is Wood actually begging?

HA: That is the woman he loves….he doesn’t want anything to happen to her…

Wood: This is between us, nobody else…..you don’t need to do this…..please don’t hurt her…I am begging you

Costello’s eyes light up at Wood’s words. He grins but then he lifts Emmy’s feet into an elevated position on the ropes, preparing to DDT her from a hangman’s position. Wood looks terrified…

Wood:.Ok…ok….I Quit….I Quit you piece of (beep)….you let her go right now or I swear to God
HA: That’s it….Wood gave up…he had no other choice…

HE: Costello has stooped to a whole new level tonight….

Ding ding ding

Ring Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen here is your winner…..and STILL EWF World Heavyweight Champion……………Viiinnnccceeeennnnnttt Coooossstttteeellllloooooo!

HA: Costello retains the EWF Championship but that no good S.O.B had to resort to threatening a woman to do it…..NO GOD NO!

HE: OH NO…

Crowd: A55hole x10

HA: I don’t believe it…

The bell sounds and Costello is declared the winner, bringing a grin. He and Wood continue to lock eyes and then Costello winks at his rival before drilling Emmy with a thunderous DDT. Costello kneels over Emmy and touches her lips before looking back up at Wood with a sinister smile…

HE: This is too much…

HA: This whole match was too much….these two men will never, ever, be the same but the end of this bout is completely reprehensible…Vincent Costello is worse than scum…

HE: Costello has taken this rivalry beyond an acceptable level, I can’t even defend him….Emmy was a defenceless victim…this was between Wood and Costello, nobody else…

Wood’s eyes are now full of tears and he looks furious as he continues to try and rip himself free of the handcuffs. Costello continues to smile as he stands up and then he grabs the baseball bat back off the floor…..CRACK!

HA: OH MY…

HE: What a sickening exclamation point on this brutality…

Costello smashes the bat into the side of Wood’s head and leaves him slumped on the floor before he snatches the EWF belt from the referee and raises it over his head. Costello staggers to the ropes and collapses, blood still streaming from his nose, but he smirks….

HA: Vincent Costello and Liam Wood have been through a war that will never be forgotten….this was a bloodbath…

HE: Both of these men will need serious medical attention, it may be a while until we see them in a wrestling ring again…

HA: And poor Emmy….what has she done to deserve this?

EMT’s rush to the ring and begin to tend to Emmy as Costello rolls from the ring and staggers into the aisleway. He pushes past security and medics, all of whom stare at him in disgust, before making his way up the ramp. Liam Wood is cut free from his restraints, blood oozing from the side of his head, but he quickly crawls over to make sure his girlfriend is ok…

HE: Is this the end?

HA: What do you think….I cannot for the life of me expect that Liam Wood will sit back and take this….Costello just pushed the red button…

HE: But where can it go? I don’t know if these two should ever be allowed in the same ring together again…this may never end until one of these two stops breathing…

HA: It really is beyond control…

Emmy is placed in a neck brace and lifted onto a stretcher as Liam Wood staggers over to her, anger and terror in his eyes. He is struggling to stay upright himself as he follows the stretcher up the ramp, the cameras showing many concerned faces in the crowd.

6CW Aftermath 1st October

(The scene changes to show Liam Wood who appears to be driving a car and is speaking hands free whist on a phone call)

LW: You don’t get it; you haven’t had to sit there next to her in the hospital, holding her hand, promising her everything will be ok.This should never have happened; I should never have allowed Emmy to get involved. I let Costello get inside my head; he took my eye off what was important, again. First you and now Emmy, all because of me

(The sound of Thunder’s voice can be heard)

T: This isn’t the time for wallowing in your own self pity Liam. You should be thankful for what you have. Emmy is gonna be fine, what happened wasn’t your fault. The same goes for me. Please you need to use this as an opportunity to be thankful.You can’t keep blaming yourself, pushing the self destruct button and throwing yourself into more and more dangerous situations

(The call waiting sound beeps and Liam smiles)

LW: Thunder, dude, that’s Emmy. I’ve gotta take this.Thanks for being here for me man. I appreciate this, after everything you’ve still got my back. Thanks it means a lot

T: Brothers till the end Liam. Say hi to Emmy for me

(Liam ends the call)

LW: Hey beautiful, everything ok. I’ve not long left you. I know the view outside isn’t as good as that hospital in Australia but the nurses seem real friendly

(Emmy appears to be crying)

LW: What’s the matter Emmy has something happened, is somebody there?

E: I’m so sorry to do this over the phone Liam, but I couldn’t face telling you with you here with me

LW: What are you talking about Emmy, sorry about what?

E: I love you……………………..but……………………I can’t do this anymore

(Liam appears shell shocked)

E: You are hell bent on destroying yourself Liam and I can’t watch whilst you do it. I know you won’t change, I accepted that a long time ago but I thought I would become more used to this, that seeing you hurt night after night wouldn’t cut me like a knife, but it is tearing me up inside Liam

LW: But, please…………….

E: I’m sorry Liam, please don’t come and see me again. My parents are collecting me from the hospital tomorrow morning and then I am flying back to America with them. Please don’t contact me, my mind is made up

I will always love you……………………

(The phone goes dead and Wood stares silently forward)

(The screen goes dark and we hear Harold’s voice again. The lights are still dimmed but the preparations inside the ring have seemed to have stopped.)

HA: When brave Emmy decided to get involved in a match that was already off the brutality scale, little did she realise her intervention would end up sending her to A&E. There were strong rumours going round the internet that her condition was critical during the latter parts of the PPV. Thankfully she is now stable but still in hospital.

HE: Her actions were honourable but Costello’s actions turned even my stomach. When we see a grown man……a 6CW wrestler…..get smacked in the head with a bat, we as commentators take an intake of breath, but we are not restricted in calling the rest of the match. However, when a civilian like Emmy feels the full force of a thunderous DDT, then……I am sorry…..even I am lost for words.

HA: Which brings us to the next part of Aftermath which has been titled, wrongly I hasten to add, a Eulogy for Emmy. I am not sure what is going to happen, but I know this won’t be easy to watch if Vincent Costello is involved.

The hard camera returns to look at the ring that is still shrouded by darkness. It zooms in slowly as the house lights start to come up. Some sinister organ music starts to play as the inside of the ring starts to become bathed in light. As the organ music finishes, we can see Vincent Costello standing in front of a rostrum. He is wearing a black suit and for once appears clean shaven. His dark hair is sleeked back and the EWF World title is lying on the podium in front of him. Behind him are two easels set up but with their contents are covered with large red fabric. Costello looks out smugly in front of the audience as the crowd starts booing him heavily. He pays them no notice but his smile grows wider at the noise.

HA: He is enjoying this too much.

HE: Maybe so, but who can stop him doing so now?

Costello bows his head and starts to speak soberly into the microphone that is perched on the rostrum.

VC: Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, friends and family……we are gathered here to honour the life and passing of a misguided young lady………

The crowd boos strongly at this and some of them cuss in his direction. Costello barely registers the venom, but just continues.

VC: I know that your outpouring of anger is a way to deal with your grief. For that reason, I welcome it. If this is the way you need to acknowledge what has come to pass, then I am happy for you to take a few moments and steady yourself for what we will soon witness……….

He reaches for his EWF title and lifts it high above his head with an arrogant look on his face. The crowds anger reaches deafening levels as Costello just stands there and breathes it all in.

HE: You are looking at a man that right now feels unbeatable.

After a short while, Costello drops the title and rests it back on the podium. He unhooks the microphone from its stand and then walks in front of the rostrum. The booing dies away as the crowd, grudgingly, want to hear what Costello has to say next.

VC: The poor young lady I mentioned was defenceless. She was an innocent bystander in an event she had no place in. What happened to her was inexcusable, indescribable and inhuman. There are times when we look back at what transpired and wished things could have been different. Was there any reason why she should have felt that pain? Could the result have changed? Did the woman that we all care about have to suffer the fate that she did? These questions spin in our heads as we try and make sense of it all. But the answers can only come from one man. A man that was trusted. A man that was loved. A man that ultimately threw that all away and just……gave……up…….

Costello tries but fails to hide his grin as he starts to walk to the first easel.

VC: But…..we are not here to debate. We are here to celebrate! This is a time when we can be grateful that we knew this lady. Accept what a big part she was in our lives. A way for us all, touched by her in so many ways, can remember in unison. Remember and commemorate. Please, pray silence as I give you Emmy………

He lifts the red fabric off the first easel and a blown up picture can be seen on it. It shows a close up of Emmy’s face, lying on the canvas with her eyes closed and her head in a neck brace. The fans nearly raise the roof with the booing as the camera focuses on Costello, one arm outstretched and the gruesome picture next to him.

HA: Such a sick bastard……..

Costello allows the picture to sink in the minds of the audience before he starts to speak again. He has to shout over the jeering as the crowd takes a while to quieten down.

VC: This picture……THIS picture…….is how we should remember Emmy. This is the moment that we need to take away from this building and cherish. This is the moment when a lie of a life finally saw the truth. In Emmy’s short life on this Earth, all she has known is broken promises. A life where she has been hurt time and again by the man she adored. A man that flung her to her demise with his eyes open and with no regard for her well-being………..

He strokes the picture with his hand against Emmy’s chin and pushes his finger to her lips.

VC: When the bright light flashed before her eyes, she at last got justice for her short existence. In a match where rules were demolished, the only one to make any difference was a commandment from a higher power…………….Costello’s Law.

The crowd boos again and this time Costello turns towards them angrily.

VC: What?! You still blame me for this? All I have done is given people what they wished! Liam Wood wanted the match, so I gave it to him. Liam Wood wanted the rules to be “I quit”, so I happily allowed it. Then when his stupid girlfriend begged me to stop slamming his head with a bat, I stopped!

The camera zooms into his face as he seethes.

VC: And when Wood wanted me to let go of Emmy……I did…….forcefully!

He points backward to the picture of Emmy and continues.

VC: I took out Emmy, because I wanted to. Your guy Thunder? Yeah, I threw him off a stage! The names don’t matter but the result does. I destroyed everyone that was in my path and I got my rightful reward. So you can continue to boo and live in your dream world! You want to see fantasy happiness? You want to see what could have been?!

He flings the red fabric off the second easel and we see a picture of Emmy kissing Liam Wood on the cheek. The fans look on taken aback at this picture, as Costello flies off in a rage again.

VC: That picture was taken at Scars and Stripes at the Elite Coliseum. How happy they look right?! But it was only a few moments later that I warned Emmy that I had barely scratched the surface of their little relationship yet. That Costello’s Law stated that the story hadn’t reached its right conclusion. The conclusion that wouldn’t come from my actions! But the actions of her boyfriend! If Wood had remembered what he was feeling when his bitch was kissing him in this picture, then the aftermath would have been different. He could have walked away! Lived a content life with her without thoughts of revenge for his so called friend Thunder! He could have stopped believing in his own hype in his non-existent talent! He could have turned his back on me winning the EWF title at the PPV and concentrated on things that he could control! But as soon as he made the choice……as soon as he decided to come after me……then it was always going to end badly. His world is in tatters and it was ripped apart by his bare hands! And Costello’s Law has stood tall and proved to you all that everything else you cling dearly too is simply a figment of your imagination. THAT is the truth. THAT is certainty. THAT........IS........THE.........LAW!

He points to the picture of Emmy and Wood in an embrace.

VC: FANTASY!

He points to the picture of Emmy in a neck brace.

VC: REALITY!

The fans hurl abuse at Costello as he seemingly starts to calm down. He grins and nods his head, as he walks back over to the podium and retrieves his EWF belt. He reaches below the stand and takes out a metal spray can. He shakes it up and down a few times before spraying black paint over Emmy's face in the second picture, just leaving Wood's face untouched. Costello chucks the can to one side and shouts in the microphone.

VC: Tick the boxes if you want people! Thunder......check. Emmy.....double check. And if Wood is as foolish as I think he is, then that last job will be completed. The Law still stands regardless, beyond the soap opera, fake fairy tale romance that I happily destroyed.....I AM Vincent Costello.....I AM EWF World Champion......I AM REALITY!

His tone changes as he looks up to the camera and smirks.

VC: Rest in Peace Emmy.......and thanks for the freakin' memories!

He goes to leave when suddenly there is a disturbance from the crowd and a figure jumps the guardrail.

HA: WOOD!

The fans cheer as Wood rolls into the ring. Costello goes to hit him with the belt but Wood ducks, rebounds off the ropes and slams into Costello with a spear. He then stays on top of his nemesis and smacks him continuously with right and left punches. Costello has no answer as Wood suddenly gets to his feet and picks up the Emmy in a neck brace picture off the easel. He lifts it up into the air and then slams it over Costello's head. The picture splinters instantly and Costello falls back unconscious on the canvas. The fans cheer Wood loudly, but The Viper shows no emotion. Instead, he blankly stares at the picture of him and Emmy together, with his girlfriends face crudely sprayed black.

HA: What a few weeks Wood has had!

HE: Look at him! He is just a shell of a man. He doesn't even know what day it is!

HA: And neither does Costello after that shot!

Wood continues to stare at the picture and still fails to acknowledge the crowd or Costello, who is starting to stir on the mat. Wood pulls back on his own hair and then he drops down and begins to land with sickening punches to Costello's head. The punches are continuous and forceful, every blow laced with vicious intent. Blood begins to spray from different wounds on Costello's head and face as security bombard the ring and have to forcefully restrain Viper...

HA: Liam Wood is a man possessed....he has lost everything and now he has nothing but retribution and revenge on his mind...

HE: He's gone psycho...

Wood is kicking out his feet and battling with the security guards as they struggle to keep hold of him. He gets back up but three guards tackle his legs and take him down again. Vincent Costello is just lying in a heap on the floor, his face battered and swollen. Eventually the security guards manage to drag Wood under the bottom rope and take him down to the ground again. They are forced to handcuff him...

HA: Liam Wood is being taken out of here in handcuffs....this is what this feud has descended too...

HE: I think it is for the best....I don't think he was ever going to stop hitting Costello...

HA: The question now is; how the hell are 6CW management going to handle this situation?.

HE: Get out of his way referee…

HA: The official is doing the right thing….Daniel Magnusson has sent a directive out to 6CW employees, he wants Wood and Costello kept apart…

A team of ten security guards suddenly walk out, drawing boos from the crowd, and they stand in front of Vincent Costello, blocking any path to the EWF Champion. Liam Wood pushes the referee aside and makes a beeline for the ropes but he is clattered from behind…

HE: He forgot about Cutler…

Cutler lands a huge clothesline to the back of Wood’s head and then he grabs his arm and quickly whips him off the ropes. Cutler runs forwards and drives into Wood with a huge spear….

HA: Oh my lord….impact…

Cutler stands up and lets out a primal roar before grabbing Wood by the head. He flips him up and holds him there, posing in front of the fans, before nailing a huge crucifix powerbomb…

HE: Jax Cutler is a monster…

HA: Vincent Costello is loving this…

Costello is grinning from the stage as Cutler makes the cover on Wood…
..
…1
..
..
…….2
..
..
…………………..3!

HA: The impressive run of Jax Cutler continues….can anyone defeat the INT Champion?

HE: I’m not so sure….and I also don’t like Wood’s chances of ever getting redemption on Costello….VC is in Wood’s head…

The bell sounds and the crowd boo as Hathaway climbs into the ring and raises Cutler’s arm up in the air. He pats his client’s huge chest and then puts the title belt over his shoulder. Liam Wood is slumped at their feet…

HA: Who is going to challenge the dominance of Jax Cutler…he is a very scary proposition…

Hathaway leads Cutler from the ring and they slowly make their way up the ramp. Hathaway is grinning and screaming superlatives at his client. They pass the security and Costello without a backwards glance and then disappear backstage. Costello is pacing back and forth on the stage and then he pushes past security and rushes towards the ring…

HE: This is going to explode…

Wood is scrambling up, getting as ready as he can to fight, as Costello grabs onto the ropes and aims to pull himself up on the apron. Wood rushes forward and tries to grab at his opponent but the security guards grab VC by the waist and drag him back into the aisleway.

HA: How on earth are we going to control this…

HE: Harold…..OH MY GOD!

Crowd: Holy (beep) x10

Liam Wood scrambles to the ropes and he pulls himself up on the turnbuckle. He perches on top and then he launches himself off into a huge crossbody, crashing into Costello and the security guards. The fans are going wild as Wood scrambles over the guards and tries to rain down punches on Costello…

HA: Insane action here on Anarchy….Daniel Magnusson needs to reach a decision on this….

Six guards move to grab Wood and pull him away from the scene, restraining him as best they can. Costello looks rabid as he kicks out his feet and tries to break forward, only to be flattened by the remaining guards.

Crowd: Let them fight x10

HE: The tagline has returned…

HA: I think these people want this fight more than any they have wanted before…

Costello is pushed up the ramp and blocked off as Liam Wood is kept under control at the bottom of the aisle. The fans are going wild as Costello is pushed into the backstage area and then Wood is slowly escorted after him.

*Liam Wood is sprinting through the backstage corridors as the cameras struggle to keep up with him. He knocks over various stagehands and does not bother to look behind him to apologise. He has one thing only on his mind as he bursts through the doors of Wembley.

Suddenly, as Wood turns one corner, the camera can see Vincent Costello in the distance. Wood increases his pace and heads straight towards him. Costello has his back to Wood and doesn't see him coming, but he soon feels Wood's fury when The Viper starts to rein down blow after blow on the back of his head.

As the camera looks down at Wood attacking Costello on the backstage floor, security starts to pile in. They somehow manage to drag Wood away, but he is kicking out with his feet and spitting in Costello's direction. The EWF champion wipes his blooded lip and simply smirks in Wood's direction. This increases Wood's anger so much that he manages to break free and starts to attack Costello again. Security is quick to get to Wood once more and for the second time drag him away. Suddenly there is a shout from behind them and the camera turns round to see Daniel Magnusson standing there.

DM: Bring him into my office. NOW!

*Security does what the 6CW owner instructs, with Magnusson waving away the camera and also Timothy Allen who has arrived on the scene. He pushes past all the people as Wood is literally dragged by security. Camera bulbs are flashing as various reporters try and take a picture of the aftermath and Magnusson has trouble getting through the scrum. At last he gets to his office door and a few stagehands prise it open while the owner goes inside. Security chuck Wood into the room and Magnusson shouts out to them.

DM: Get that mob out of here!

*The door is slammed shut but we can still here the hubbub outside for a good few moments. Magnusson looks at Wood who is just looking blankly at the door and breathing heavily. The noise from outside starts to die down as it seems security have succeeded to push the reporters and other media people away from the office. Magnusson points at the door and shouts at Wood.

DM: Have you never heard of negative publicity?!

*Wood says nothing and simply stares at the door again. Suddenly he goes to leave, but Magnusson is quick to get in front of him.

DM: Oh no......you aren't going out there. You are going to sit down and listen. Then you have a decision to make.

*Magnusson calmly points to the chair in front of his desk and motions for Wood to sit. When Wood doesn't move, Magnusson turns him away and pushes him into the seat. Wood slumps into it, gritting his teeth and staring into the distance. Magnusson walks round to his seat and looks at him.

DM: Where did it all go wrong, eh Liam?

*Wood doesn't answer and Magnusson looks increasingly annoyed.

DM: You may not have listened to a word I have said for the past few weeks but you damn well will respect me. You can start by looking at me when I am talking to you!

*Wood slowly looks at Magnusson but he still gritting his teeth.

DM: Look.....the actions back there cannot be tolerated. This new era of 6CW demands both respect and obedience. Maybe you didn't get what I said at Aftermath but I will make it clear to you now. Everyone.....EVERYONE.....is on notice from now on. That means events such as what you have just caused will not happen while I am in charge. If they do, then people will be punished. It is the correct way of doing things and means that everyone is on the same playing field.

*Wood looks disgusted.

LW: So punish me then. Sack me for all I care. That way, I am free to get at that son of a bitch without your meddling.

DM: You think that was meddling?! You think I want to wipe your arse everytime you don't get your own way?! I am DONE being the babysitter. I am here to lead. If you really want to walk out on 6CW, then you go ahead and you go. But it won't be security that will drag you away, but the police. And then, you are on your own!

*Wood smirks at Magnusson.

LW: I think you will find I am already that.

*Magnusson sighs.

DM: I heard about Emmy.....

*Wood scoffs and looks away.

LW: Yeah well, my personal life has been played out for months here. It didn't bother you before when it was good for business did it? You were happy for Costello to ruin my life as it got the PPV buy rates. Now that I intend to do something about it, you have decided it is too much for the viewers. Well I am sorry, but the viewers can go stuff themselves.....

DM: So you want to destroy everything you have achieved and get yourself out of a job and in prison? And all that will be worth it as long as you get your pride back.

*Wood doesn't look up.

DM: Because this is what this is really about isn't it Liam? Your pride. The belief that you deserve something better and when it doesn't come, you blame everyone but yourself. You look at every minute detail to try and find an explanation as to why you aren't at the heights you see yourself on.

*Wood shakes his head.

LW: And what would you freakin' know.....

*Magnusson pushes his lips together and has to bite his tongue from saying something. In the end, he reaches from into his office drawer and gets out a piece of paper. He lays it on the desk and pushes it towards Wood.

DM: You know what this is?

*Wood shakes his head without even looking at the paper. Magnusson again bites his tongue.

DM: This is the proposed line-up for Ground Zero. Myself and Dean like to have some sort of structure in mind. On this list, you will find the words "Vincent Costello v Liam Wood"....

*Wood looks up at him with a shocked look on his face.

DM: Yeah.....got your attention now, haven't I?

*Wood says nothing, but just stares at the paper like it is gold.

DM: This is the decision I said you needed to make. It is a simple one really. What is actually more important to you Liam? Your supposed want to assault Vincent Costello in front of the cameras. Or your pride to try and reach the top again.

*Wood doesn't move an inch but you can tell he is listening.

DM: At Ground Zero, it WILL be Costello versus Wood. But the rest of it is up to you. You can have a match, under standard rules.....the rules of 6CW.....for the EWF title. Or, you can have a match where there are no rules.....no stipulations.....just Hell....in a cell.

*Wood looks up, his eyes wide. Magnusson stops him from speaking and cuts in.

DM: BUT......that isn't for the gold.

*Wood looks down at the paper again as Magnusson gets to his feet.

DM: Your choice Liam......pride or revenge. Which is more important to you? You can give me your answer in two weeks time.

*Magnusson walks towards the door and opens it.

DM: Now.....you stay here and cool off. Then have a shower and go home. Because if you go after Costello before the PPV, then the deals off. And not even you are that stupid.....

*Wood doesn't turn round and Magnusson swears at the ceiling. He shakes his head and exits the room, slamming the door shut as he goes. The camera focuses on Wood, who has now picked up the piece of paper, as the scene fades with him staring at it.

6CW Anarchy 29th October

The boos ring out as Max suddenly produces a steel chair from under the apron and he wraps it right across the top of Wood’s head, knocking him backwards and out cold on the canvass. The referee immediately calls for the bell but Max doesn’t seem to care as he rolls back in…

HA: That no good S.O.B…

HE: Max is showing everyone that he is not a man to be messed with….

The referee tries to get in front of Adamson but Max threatens him with the chair, sending the official scurrying. Max then stands over Wood and he turns the chair on its edge, repeatedly driving it down into the back of Wood’s neck…

HA; Stop it….dammit will somebody stop this…

Max lands with ten straight shots to the back of Wood’s neck before slinging the weapon away. Adamson stands over Wood and he breathes in the boos of the audience before raising the 6CW Championship over his head….

HE: Yes….take a long look because that is the most dominant man in the wrestling business….Max Adamson is the 6CW World Champion and that is not about to change for anybody…

Adamson continues to milk the boos from the crowd and then “Saturday Night” booms through the speakers, sparking a huge reaction from the fans. Max turns to the stage as Enforcer comes marching out, his eyes locked on the world champion…

HA: Oh my…business just picked up….Enforcer doesn’t want to wait for Ground Zero, he wants him some of Max Adamson….

Enforcer comes striding down to the ring and he dives under the bottom rope. Max quickly dives out of the opposite side but Enforcer gives chase. They circle the ring twice and then Max rolls back in….he quickly grabs the steel chair and throws it in Enforcer’s direction but the #1 contender throws both hands up and swats it away…

HA: Enforcer is having none of it…

HE: GORE!

Max takes full advantage of the situation and he drives through Big E with the huge spear, leaving him in a heap. Adamson quickly grabs the 6CW Title and rolls from the ring with a grin as Enforcer is left clutching his ribs…

HE: And you thought Enforcer had Max’s number….he just got played….

HA: Max Adamson scores one big tonight…Enforcer does not look impressed…

Enforcer is slumped on the ropes, a snarl on his face, as he watches Max back up the ramp. Adamson holds the 6CW belt high and winks back at his foe before turning away and disappearing through the curtain. The fans are still making a lot of noise and then a new face appears on the stage…

HA: Oh no…

Match result: Liam Wood via DQ
Match time: 10 minutes.

.HE: Brilliant….you think what we have seen so far is bad….this is about to get very dangerous for Liam Wood…

The boos reach fever pitch as Vincent Costello very slowly walks down the ramp, like an animal stalking his prey. He watches Liam Wood, who is holding the back of his neck, trying to get up and then he unstraps the EWF belt from around his waist and rolls into the ring…

HA: Liam Wood is in no position to protect himself….Costello is picking the damn bones…

HE: He’s going to put Wood out of his misery once and for all…

Costello licks his lips, his dark eyes glistening, and he beckons for Wood to get back to his feet and then he charges at him, swinging the belt straight at his rival’s head….

HA: PELE!

Wood ducks the impact and then he drills Costello in the face with the flying kick. The crowd go wild as Wood picks up the EWF belt and he waits for Costello to rise before charging at him…..BOOM!

HE: AHHHH!

Wembley Arena is rocking as Wood blasts the belt into the Costello’s face and sends the champion rolling from the ring, clutching his face. Wood’s chest is heaving in and out, his eyes full of fury as he listens to the audience…

Crowd: Liam Wood….Liam Wood….Liam Wood!

HA: Liam Wood looks like he wants to rip Costello’s head from his shoulders….

Costello is sat on the ramp, holding his jaw, as Wood stares out at him. Wood then takes a mic from the ring announcer…

HE: Nobody wants to hear what this idiot has to say…

HA: I wouldn’t count on that…

Wood: I’ve taken a long time to think about what I want at Ground Zero…the opportunity to win the EWF Championship is something I have chased since the day I lost it, this championship (he holds up Costello’s belt) has consumed me from day one….

And taken this away from you is a motivation I cannot overlook….after everything you have taken from me, everything you have destroyed I want you to feel the same way I have felt for the last six months…I know what this belt means to you and I know ripping it from your grasp would be soul-destroying….

Knowing you lost this to me would tear you apart…

*Costello is glaring back at Wood, the hatred between both evident.

Wood: I want you to suffer, I want you to know how it feels to have everything taken from you and have nothing left….

But I don’t know if taking this belt from you would satisfy my desire to see you six feet deep….I don’t know if anything can compare to putting you in a goddamn bodybag and leaving you to rot…

I don’t want to just beat you….I want to end you, I want to rip you limb from limb….I want you to bleed out all over the Echo Arena….I want your bones to shatter and your life to flash before your eyes….

I can’t risk entering into a championship match with you knowing that the rage building inside of me could cost me my chance to settle this once and for all…I don’t want this to end on a DQ….I don’t want it to end via count-out…

*Wood takes a deep breath

Wood: And that’s why…as much as I want this back…

*He takes another look at the EWF belt and then he slings it from the ring, landing it next to Costello.

Wood: I’d much rather take your sorry a55 all the way to hell and watch you burn…..that is reality!

*The fans are going wild as Wood and Costello are locked on. Both of them look ready to go to war.

HA: Wood has made his announcement….he’s made his choice, my god…..Liam Wood & Vincent Costello are going to collide one more time at Ground Zero and they are going to do it inside Hell in a Cell…

HE: Liam Wood must have a death wish…he wants Vincent Costello inside the cell? At Ground Zero we are going to witness the end of the Viper…

HA: One way or another this saga is coming to a barn-burning climax…..Wood/Costello Hell in a Cell…..will either of these men live to tell the tale when it is all said and done….my God!

*The show goes off the air as Wood & Costello continue their stare-down.

6CW Anarchy 13th November

HE: I knew this was going to happen….no way was there ever going to be any control…

Max picks Enforcer’s head up off the floor and then drives it back down into the stage as the crowd boo. Liam Wood is standing on the ringside barrier and he dives into the crowd, clotheslining Costello to the floor. Scott Harris tackles Mike Masters to the floor and is hammering down with forearms as the tag teams go for broke on the outside….

HA: Jack Hurst is taking a beat right now…

Justice Porter and Confidence Carter have Hurst trapped on the floor and they are raining down with heavy kicks to the head and chest. All attention then turns to Robin Reborn, who has scaled the turnbuckle…

HE: What is he doing up there…..NO WAY!

Crowd: That was awe-some x10

HA: Robin Reborn can fly!

Reborn hauls himself into an incredible shooting star press, clattering into Bad Intentions on the outside and taking all of them to the floor. The camera then pans back up the ramp where Max Adamson is beckoning for Enforcer to get back up…

HA: I can’t concentrate on everything going on out here…

Enforcer staggers up, near the edge of the stage, and Max comes charging towards him. Enforcer sidesteps and he sends Max crashing into the steel ruts of the titantron structure before picking up the 6CW Title and he smashes it into the champion’s face. Enforcer kisses the belt and throws it down before dragging Max back up…

HE: Leave him alone….he is the world champion…

HA: Max was the one who attacked Enforcer from behind….now he can deal with the consequences…

In the ring, Scott Harris is trying to lock Mike Masters in the sharpshooter. Masters manages to wriggle free and he kicks out with both feet, sending Harris flying across the ring. Masters gets back up and runs to the ropes, diving into a springboard….

HE: DISASTER KICK!

Harris ducks the kick and then tries to counter with an Olympic slam but it is countered by an armdrag. They get back up and Harris swings his hand back to throw a punch but Masters delivers a kick right between the legs…

*Crowd boo

HA: Disgraceful…

HE: In two weeks time that will be completely legal…

Harris drops to his knees and rolls in pain as Masters stands over him, a smug grin upon on his face. Masters then climbs from the ring and grabs two steel chairs before heading back inside…

HE: Masters has some bad intentions for his rival…

The cameras then pan into the crowd and show Liam Wood and Vincent Costello brawling into the upper tiers of the arena. Wood is shown ramming Costello’s head into a large steel door and then they both disappear into the backstage area…

HA: We need to get cameras back there and quickly…

HE: But there is still so much to watch out here….

Robin Reborn is trying to drag Confidence Carter up when Justice Porter runs forwards and delivers a huge Superman punch. Porter rips up the coverings off the floor and then he drags Reborn up, scooping him onto his shoulders….

HA: That is exposed concrete right there….someone stop it….

Jack Hurst tries to come to the rescue but Confidence Carter smacks him in the side of the head with the ring bell. Porter then grins at his tag team partner and delivers a tombstone, crushing Reborn’s head into the concrete…

HE: OH MY…..

HA: We need medics….Robin Reborn’s neck may be broken…

Porter and Carter nod their heads before getting back to their feet. They look down at the Red Arrows before motioning for belts around their waists. They high five and then start to make their way towards the aisleway…

HE: Job done for Bad Intentions….Red Arrows know exactly what they are dealing with now…

Jack Hurst has crawled over and is checking on Robin Reborn as we head back up to the top of the stage. Enforcer has Max’s head between his legs and he is looking at the side of the stage…

HA: Enforcer has some evil ideas of his own here….

HE: That is the 6CW World Champion….don’t you dare lay a hand on him….

Enforcer raises a lone arm to the crowd and they give an almighty cheer. He then locks his arms under Max’s waist and prepares to lift him…

HA: POWER…

Enforcer lifts Max up for the powerbomb but the world champion jams his thumb right into the eye of Enforcer, temporarily blinding him. Max staggers away as Enforcer drops down on one knee, trying to repair is vision…

HE: Max showing what a real world champion is all about….he does what it takes…

HA: He is a no good….son of a..

HE: GORE…..GORE…..GORE….OH MY GOD!

HA: SENSATIONAL….

Sparks fly as Max spears Enforcer off the side of the stage, sending them both crashing ten feet through a table and into a heap of production equipment. The whole arena is rocking as both men are flat out in the wreckage…

HA: This is total warfare in front of us….these men may never be the same…

HE: And we haven’t even got to Ground Zero…

Medics are on the scene as Adamson and Enforcer are still not moving. The action moves back to ringside, where Mike Masters has placed one steel chair under Scott Harris’ head and is lifting the second up into the air…

HA: Scott Harris may be about to join the casualty list…

*Crowd cheer

HA: Talk about returning the favour…

Masters is about to bring the chair crashing down when Scott Harris jolts forward and lands with a heavy low-blow. This time it is Masters who collapses to his knees, agony all over his face. Harris gets back up and he grabs a steel chair…

HE: Oh no….Masters is in trouble now…..

Harris points the chair at Masters’ head and prepares to swing but then he turns the weapon on its edge and begins to drive it down against Masters’ legs. Masters yells out in pain as the attack continues….

HA: Mike Masters may not be able to walk when this is all said and done…

Seven more chairshots to the legs and then Harris hails the weapon away. Harris’ eyes are full of fury as he then grabs Masters’ legs and turns him over…

HE: Oh no…

HA: SHARPSHOOTER….If Harris can lock this in at Ground Zero then he may very well keep Masters down for ten…

Masters is screaming in pain and trying desperately to crawl for the ropes as Harris sits right into the submission hold. Masters is slapping his hand against the canvass and really clawing at his own head as the pain increases….

HE: Get him off….he’s going to break Masters’ legs…

A team of referees and security storm the ring to start breaking up the action. Harris is backed off and trapped in the corner whilst Mike Masters tries to crawl to safety. Harris is clearly angry as he tries to push his way through….

HA: All of these men are going to collide in just two weeks….Daniel Magnusson is doing the right thing by breaking this up now because if it continues he may not have a pay per view….

The cameras pan around the wreckage at ringside and then suddenly the coverage goes into the backstage area. The cameras are rolling in the parking lot as Liam Wood has pulled Vincent Costello up on the bonnet of a car…

HE: Oh my God….this is chaos….we need to get security out there…

HA: I don’t think anyone is going to make it in time…

Wood pulls Costello up and he hooks his arms in place. He looks crazed as he prepares to drill Costello’s head into the windscreen…

HA: VIPER….OH GOD!

Costello struggles and then he counters with a backdrop. Wood lands on the windscreen and the back of his head cracks straight through the glass. Wood rolls off the bonnet and falls down onto the concrete floor. Costello then slides off the side of car and he staggers over to another black rental. He drags the driver’s door open and climbs inside…

HE: I guess Costello has had enough….he’s getting out of town…

HA: No…..no wait a damn minute…..Vincent….VINCENT DON’T DO IT….OH SWEET MOTHER OF GOD!

Costello revs the engine and then he puts the lights on full beam. He targets the position of Liam Wood, who is staggering out towards the exit of the lot, before he starts to drive forward. Costello heads straight in the direction of his groggy rival….

HE: NO….

Wood somehow gains his senses and rolls out of the way in time, sending the car crashing through the security barriers and out into the night. The tires can be heard screeching as Costello struggles to keep control of the vehicle and then he disappears into the distance. Liam Wood is on his knees, blood trickling down the back of his head, and he is staring out at where the car disappeared to. His eyes are boiling with hatred.

HA: I can’t believe what we have just witnessed….Vincent Costello just tried to run down Liam Wood….

HE: But he didn’t…

HA: That is assault with a deadly weapon….as if Costello hasn’t done enough to Wood over the last twenty two months….he just tried to run him down like a damn animal…

HE: Wood survives to fight another day….and in two weeks he will be involved in the fight of his life….

HA: Yes he will…..these two gladiators will meet inside “hell in a cell” at Ground Zero and after what we just witnessed I cannot imagine what they are going to do one another…

The furious face of Liam Wood, staring straight down the barrel of the camera, is the last image of the show as we hit the credits.
