Prove Your Worth 09/16/2008

09/16/2008

Asheville, North Carolina’s Civic Center is packed with REBEL fans. Stars like the Black Underground Railroad, Galactix and Warren are signing autographs
as folks get their popcorn and drinks for the big event. Rob Martinez and Rex Caliber get into the ring to kick things off!

ROB MARTINEZ: Hello everybody and welcome to Prove Your Worth! I’m Rob Martinez, and alongside me is the one and only Rex Caliber! Ashville, North Carolina
is in store for one of REBEL’s biggest shows tonight as we kick off the Best Of The Best Tournament!

REX CALIBER: Well, this crowd is already fired up for tonight’s show…and there are plenty of good reasons for that!

ROB MARTINEZ: Tonight we will crowd a new contender cup holder as we hold an eleven man extreme battle royle! Galactix, Cuzin Zeke, Manny X, Nick Everhardt,
El Rey, Matthew Kurtis, Reno Valentine, Danny Superbia, Josh Markham, Kaz Sato, and JAGI have all been announced for this match!

REX CALIBER: Some of the best talent in REBEL meets some of the newest, all for a chance to be able to name where and when they will recieve a title shot
of their choice! The last cup holder is now the owner of REBEL, a man named Mr. Long. Who will follow in his footsteps here tonight?

ROB MARTINEZ: We also will have the four opening round matches in the Best Of The Best Tag Team Tournament as The Dark Market will take on the Great Alaskan
Ninjas!

REX CALIBER: The Dark Market has been on a role as of late, and are the current number one contenders to the tag titles. The question is, are they looking
past this tournament? Because if they are, this new team could easily find themselves advancing to the second round of the tournament!

ROB MARTINEZ: We’ll also see The Foundation compete against The Young Leons.

REX CALIBER: The Foundation obviously has talent on their side as Prince W. Darko and Thomas Young have both been seen here before in REBEL! In fact, Young
barely lost a World Heavyweight Championship match to Lloyd Rees as he passed out during the submission! The Young Leons are a newer team, but they have
one huge advantage on their side…they are managed by Ravager! We saw Ravager win the Aerial Assault tournament earlier this year. And if this team of
his is anything like him, Young and Darko will have their hands full!

ROB MARTINEZ: We will also see the unlikely team of Vincent Black and Bubba J take on the NAPW Tag Team Champions, Casino & Cartwright!

REX CALIBER: Casino & Cartwright have had a good share of luck in NAPW. The team is very talented. But we have seen Black and Bubba J impress us as the
two men who hate each other actually were able to take out Southern Destruction! This should be a very unique match!

ROB MARTINEZ: And in the main event, We’re also going to see our REBEL Tag Team Champions, Stone Zellor and Mike Trey take on the returning New & Improved
DX!

REX CALIBER: Zellor and Trey are a phenomenal tag team. Probably the best we have here in REBEL. But they are taking on The Beast and a returning Kyle Roberts.
You couldn’t ask for a better tag team match tonight! Not to mention, after Zellor’s part in The Beast’s suspension, there will be added intensity to this
match, Rob!

ROB MARTINEZ: And finally…tonight, we will see Jake Phoenix recieve his long awaited rematch for the World Heavyweight Championship! He lost the championship
to Lloyd Rees, and thanks to his opponent he will face tonight, he was guarenteed a rematch for the title!

REX CALIBER: Paul Jarvis played all of the right cards. And he was able to capture the championship at Bring The Pain. But he has to be a little displeased
with himself knowing that he’s the reason that Phoenix gets his match tonight! But when you talk about world title matches, there aren’t too many that
are bigger than this one!

ROB MARTINEZ: Tonight, Ashville and the rest of the world will get to see just who exactly is ready to PROVE…THEIR…WORTH!

——————————————————————————–

JENNY JERSEY: The following match is set for one fall and is one of the matches in the Best of the Best tag team tournament. Introducing first…

“They Came In” – The Butthole Surfers, begins to play over the speakers and the Rebel fans are loud in anticipation. Realizing who is now coming out, they
begin to laugh hysterically.

JENNY JERSEY: Ladies and gentlemen, weighing in at a total combined weight of three hundred and ninety five pounds; I give you THE YOUNG LEONS!

RAVANGER comes out with his team, The Young Leons; the crowd still laughs at the team, The Young Leons do not appreciate being laughed at. The two men walk
up the steps and into the ring, RAVANGER makes his way to their corner and all three await the entrance of their opponents.

ROB MARTINEZ: This should be one great match.

The Foundation by AKFORTY blasts through the building that is holding Prove Your Worth, the fans begin to cheer. From the back, Thomas Young and Prince
Darko walk out.

JENNY JERSEY: Ladies and Gentlemen, weighing in at a total combined weight of four hundred and seventy two pounds, THE FOUNDATION!

The Foundation look into the ring and walk down to it with a purpose; they ignore the loud chorus of boos that nearly every fan is yelling. The two men
glance at RAVANGER, and climb through the ropes. They stare at their opponents; showing no expression.

ROB MARTINEZ: The Foundation receiving nothing but love here tonight.

REX CALIBER: Sarcasm is one of your strong points.

DING! DING!

Prince Darko and McHighspot start the match with the traditional lock up. Darko, the more experienced of the two is quickly behind McHighspot with a behind
the back wristlock. He wrenches up on the wrist and McHighspot cries out in pain; Darko wrenches up further. McHighspot ducks and is behind Darko with
a wristlock of his own; he wrenches up as well. McHighspot releases the wrist and Darko is quickly down with a bulldog followed by a headlock.

REX CALIBER: Both men with a wristlock behind the back to start this match off.

ROB MARTINEZ: Young and The Mormon Love Machine are fighting outside the ring!

Johnny and Young are exchanging punches on the outside of the ring and up from behind RAVANGER comes with a steel chair; he levels Thomas Young with a vicious
shot to the back of his head. Johnny takes the opportunity to begin to kick away on his adversary; he places numerous well placed boots to the temple of
Thomas Young.

REX CALIBER: Young Leons are on top in this match.

ROB MARTINEZ: For the moment anyways, we know about their record.

Johnny picks up Young and holds his hands behind his back; RAVANGER slaps his face around before delivering a low blow that quickly drains the color from
Thomas Young.

REX CALIBER: Young not feeling too good here.

ROB MARTINEZ: Would you be?

Back in the ring, Darko is up while McHighspot still has in the headlock. He throws Flippy into the ropes, but he stops the hold breaking move. It is obvious
that Darko is not please with the match so far, he grunts and both him and Flippy are out of the ring. Darko lands on top of Flippy driving both the fight
and wind out of his opponent; he stands with a devilish grin spreading across his face. On the other side of the ring, Thomas is getting slapped around
by RAVANGER, who is unaware that the tides may have just turned. Darko looks down at his opponent, picks him up, and drives him face first into the apron
before walking around to stand behind RAVANGER. He taps RAVANGER on the shoulder and the Young Leons’ manager turns around right into a big fist from Darko;
Johnny drops the hold and charges at Darko. Prepared for the inevitable charge, Darko back body drops Johnny into the crowd, where the fans are pleased
to be so near the action. Darko quickly checks on his partner and goes after Johnny; Thomas is up and following. The two pick Johnny up high over head
and drop him face first across the railing at ringside. Inside the ring, McHighspot runs springboarding from the top rope with a over the top rope plancha
to The Foundation, they catch him and give him the same fate as his tag partner. They look at RAVANGER, nod at each other and complete the trifecta by
dropping him face first on the railing as well, The Young Leons and their manager are lying in a heap on the concrete. Young and Darko pick up Johnny and
McHighspot and toss them into the ring where they make the double cover.

REX CALIBER: This match didn’t last long at all.

ROB MARTINEZ: True my friend, only too true.

ONE! TWO! THR– Both Leons kick out simultaneously.

ROB MARTINEZ: Maybe the Young Leons have more spunk than we give them credit for.

REX CALIBER: Maybe so.

The team of Young and Darko look at each other in complete shock and pick up their opponents; they are both rolled up in small package pins.

ONE! TWO! THR– Young and Darko manage to roll on through the pin and to the outside of the ring. They look up at the Young Leons, and the look on their
face isn’t one of happiness and camaraderie.

ROB MARTINEZ: Young Leons there with a near pinfall on the favorites in this match.

REX CALIBER: But again, I say to look at their record.

Young and Darko try to crawl back into the ring, but are met with hard stomps from the boots of Johnny and Flippy. They persist and finally make it back
into the ring where they try to stand, but to no avail. On the outside, RAVANGER has made it to his feet and drinking a bottle of water from somewhere,
he looks very shaken up. Johnny whips Young into the ropes, Flippy does the same to Darko, both leap frog The Foundation and nail a dropkick to their opponents.
ROB MARTINEZ: Young Leons with the advantage here.

ROB MARTINEZ: They are indeed looking good.

It having worked before and causing some damage to their opponents, they whip them back into the ropes. Leap frogging again, they turn and are caught with
two vicious big boots to their face taking them down. Both Young and Darko, shake their head and lean on the ropes catching their breath; they are showing
confidence in their abilities. They calmly walk over to their opponents, pick them up like rag dolls, and drop them with two massive scoop body slams;
the make a cover.

ONE! TWO! THR- RAVANGER pulls the ref out of the ring saying something unintelligible; it does what he wanted in breaking the count.

ROB MARTINEZ: RAVANGER saving the match there for his team.

REX CALIBER: But he is probably just delaying the inevitable.

The Foundation is still in the ring and a little upset, but they continue with the match, lifting their opponents up into the air and down with two massive
spinebusters. They go for another pin, the referee having made his way back into the ring.

ONE! TWO! THR– RAVANGER is on the outside grabbing his chest and stumbling around he stumbles into the ring, railing, and announce table; he appears to
be drunk. He looks at the bottle and takes another drink, he smiles drunkenly. The ref is out of the ring and taking the bottle of what appears to be water,
no outside alcohol is allowed at REBEL matches.

REX CALIBER: What is going on with RAVANGER?

ROB MARTINEZ: He appears to be drunk off his…

REX CALIBER: Yeah, we know.

In the ring, The Foundation is starting to get more and more upset with the antics of RAVANGER, but they know they are dominating the much smaller and less
experienced team. The ref opens the bottle and sniffs the contents, before taking a small sip; RAVANGER smiles sheepishly, it was only water.

REX CALIBER: Water, that is all it was, water.

ROB MARTINEZ: The ref knew that we do not allow outside alcohol in Rebel arenas and had no choice but to check.

The Young Leons are back up on the shoulders of The Foundation and nail two surprising hurricanranas they cover.

ONE! TWO! THR– The Foundation kick out mightily and are not happy with the pin attempt on them. They grab the throats of the Young Leons and begin to work
them over. They have the smaller men in the corner and work them over with rights and lefts; lifting them on top of the top turnbuckles and down with two
high top rope superplexes, the cover again.

ONE! TWO! THR– RAVANGER again, pulls the ref out of the ring claiming a fan hit him in the head, the ref shakes his head and points to the inside of the
ring. RAVANGER shakes his head saying that he didn’t do it on purpose. Behind the Young Leons’ manager, The Foundation picks up RAVANGER and tosses him
into the ring over the top rope. He tries to scuttle away, but is stopped by The Foundation. They hit him with their finisher the Good Night. Darko takes
the opportunity to toss the meddlesome manager out of the ring. Then then take turns hitting their finisher on each of the Young Leons; the cover is made.
ONE! TWO! THREE!

DING! DING! DING!

JENNY JERSEY: Winner of the match and advancing to round two of the Best of the Best Tournament… The Foundation!

REX CALIBER: What a match, what a weird series at the end of the match.

ROB MARTINEZ: When you are in the ring, you will do whatever it takes to win, that is all RAVANGER was trying to do. But regardless of a hell of an effort,
it is THE FOUNDATION, the first REBEL Pro Tag Champs moving on in BEST OF THE BEST!

——————————————————————————–

Referee’s Dale Macdonald and Jimmy Johnson are heading down towards ringside, Macdonald carrying the #1 Contender’s Trophy.

JENNY JERSEY: The following is the EXTREME BATTLE ROYALE for the Number One Contender’s Cup! The rules are simple: Wrestlers are eliminated by being thrown
over the top rope with both feet touching the floor! The match will continue untill only one wrestler remains, and that wrestler will be the winner!

AC/DC’s “Fire Your Guns” kicks up and wrestlers begin coming through the curtain. First out is a sneering DANNY SUPERBIA. He is shortly followed by RENO
VALENTINE. EL REY de CORAZONES enters to cheers. Here comes the big MATTHEW KURTIS, then newcomer “THE PROTOTYPE” JOSH MARKHAM. A BIG pop greets the Turkey
Cross native CUZIN ZEKE, hurt hand and all. More cheers for former Carolinas Champion GALACTIX!

ROB MARTINEZ: We have REBEL rookies and veterans alike in this Extreme Battle Royale. For any man who enters, this match could be a ticket straight to the
top. The #1 Contender’s Cup is on the line!

REX CALIBER: The winner of this will be looking at a World Champion in either Paul Jarvis or Jake Phoenix, considering how much Jarvis has pissed people
off lately, many of ‘em probably would love to beat him up for the belt. I don’t think anybody wants to face Jake Phoenix for the belt!

Here comes the newcomer JAGI. A huge pop for NICK EVERHARDT! Now KAZ SATO enters, receiving a mixed reaction.

REX CALIBER: There’s only one “BEAST” in NAPW and REBEL I’m going to recognize tonight, and he’s wrestling in th’ main event! Be interesting to see what
this Kaz Sato can do though.

ROB MARTINEZ: How about Nick Everhardt? He wrestled in what many are calling a “Match of the Year” candidate against Chad Kurtis just two weeks ago, but
it was “The Show” won won the match and later the Carolinas Title.

REX CALIBER: Everhardt is determined, we know that, but you can’t write out any of these men. One of these guys could earn a World Title shot in his FIRST
MATCH! But ya know somethin’ Rob, this is an EXTREME battle Royale and ain’t nobody brought out any sort of weapons…

ROB MARTINEZ: I think you spoke too soon, Rex!

There is a pause, but then one more body comes through the curtains. The crowd reacts with a torrent of boos as the evil goateed MANNY X comes through the
curtain. But he’s not “alone,” as it were — Manny is pushing a shopping cart FULLA PLUNDAH!

REX CALIBER: That’s what I’m talking about!

Manny charges towards ringside and starts tossing weaponry into the ring! Macdonald calls for the bell and guys start brawling with one another! But it’s
Manny X who enters the ring wielding a kendo stick and starts LIGHTING GUYS UP! El Rey de Corazones gets knocked over! CRACK to the head of The Prototype!
Everhardt gets a shot, Matt Kurtis gets lit up across the forehead and stumbles back. Quickly Danny Superbia is right on the big Matt, trying to lift the
stunned man over the top. Manny tosses the kendo stick down and looks around, not finding what he wants in the ring. He leans over the middle rope and
reaches down into the cart, pulling out… a BARBED WIRE 2×4!

REX CALIBER: REBEL rules, daddy!

The crowd oohs as Manny jabs the 2×4 into the stomach of Kaz Sato, who doubles over in pain. The MMA expert maybe has never experienced the pain of barbed
wire tearing across his flesh, but he’s getting a crash course. Manny brings the board down across his exposed back! Red begins seeping to the surface
of a dozen holes in Sato’s back. Next Manny clobbers Josh Markham! The Prototype gets his “introduction” into REBEL Pro Wrestling as Manny gouges his forehead
with the sadistic barbed wire! The unpredictable Manny X is laying waste to everybody in the ring! Licking his lips, he turns

around and sees his true
prey.

Galactix.

Matt Kurtis is choking Superbia down with his boot, Nick Everhardt holding onto the top rope as Reno Valentine tries to put him out. The Prototype and Kaz
Sato are down along the apron, Cuzin Zeke and JAGI fighting in a corner, El Rey de Corazones comes over to help out his former tag partner cialis 5 mg dosage Zeke. Manny
brings the barbed wire 2×4 high above his head — Galactix kicks him in the stomach! A punch! Another! Galactix bringing the SHAKE RATTLE & ROLL to his
old enemy! Manny drops the barbed wire 2×4, picked up by Galactix. He looks out to the crowd, and they want it! Manny looks up, locks eyes with Galactix,
daring him to do it… WHAMMO! BARBED WIRE RIGHT BETWEEN MANNY X’S EYES! He goes down and when he comes up, blood is streaming from a deep gash in his
forehead!

REX CALIBER: Galactix ain’t ever going to forget what Manny X has done to him!

ROB MARTINEZ: Manny is back on his feet, Galactix is unloading right hands on him! He’s got Manny X on the ropes, Galactix with a running clothesline SENDS
MANNY OVER THE TOP ROPE! MANNY X HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!

REX CALIBER: One down!

Manny X is down and out, as Jimmy Johnson tells him to hit the road. He’s outta there! Galactix looks down in satisfaction but he has little time to celebrate
as The Prototype attacks him from behind. El Rey de Corazones and Cuzin Zeke have put JAGI down. Kaz Sato is getting up, Cuzin Zeke tries to pull him over
the top rope, Sato holds onto the top rope for dear life. El Rey comes over to help out his former partner again… WAIT A MINUTE! DANNY SUPERBIA FROM
BEHIND! He grabs El Rey by the legs and levers the man over the top rope to the floor! EL REY HAS BEEN ELIMINATED BY DANNY SUPERBIA! Cuzin Zeke lets go
of JAGI and punches Danny Superbia down. Sato granted a reprieve, look at his bloody back. The Prototype has picked up a steel chair! WHAMMO! He clocks
Reno Valentine on the back! Reno goes down, but before The Prototype can dump him out, Nick Everhardt tries to dump him! Prototype grabs onto the ropes.
So much action it’s hard to keep track of, but Cuzin Zeke has Superbia and is lighting him up. At six-six two-sixty-three he’s got a good size and weight
advantage in this match, he could take Superbia out… going for a piledriver, but it’s the big MATTHEW KURTIS catching Cuzin Zeke with a huge Bluegrass
Mafia kick out of nowhere! Zeke stumbles backwards, almost off his feet but not quite. He stumbles backwards into the ropes and Matthew Kurtis charges
him for the elimination, but Zeke ducks and low bridges the top rope! Matthew Kurtis’ second Mafia Kick sends him flying over the top rope and to the floor,
MATTHEW KURTIS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED! The crowd pops huge for that one as Zeke pumps his fist and does a little jig in the ring.

ROB MARTINEZ: That’s three men eliminated in this match so far, and all three have been REBEL veterans! We just may see a newcomer take home the big win
tonight, but then again Cuzin Zeke is on a roll here!

REX CALIBER: He’s one of the best wrestler never to hold a singles title here in REBEL Pro, and… oh hell, Matthew Kurtis just shoved the referees aside!
That famous temper of his just went up again!

ROB MARTINEZ: Come on, Kurtis, you’re out of the match already…. OH NO! Matthew Kurtis just leveled Cuzin Zeke! Matt is out of the match, this is totally
uncalled for. He’s got Cuzin Zeke… HERE IT COMES! BLUEGRASS BOMB! BLUEGRASS BOMB!

REX CALIBER: Zeke’s head right into that garbage can in the ring! I think he’s out, Martinez!

ROB MARTINEZ: Matthew Kurtis NOW leaving… but the damage is done! Cuzin Zeke may be unconscious, he’s not moving after that brutal Bluegrass Bomb. WAITAMINUTE!
RENO VALENTINE OVER THE TOP ROPE! VALENTINE IS ELIMINATED! Nick Everhardt hit a VAN DAMINATOR to put him out! You can’t keep your eyes on all this action!
Zeke is down, Everhardt is immediately set upon by Kaz Sato. Galactix and Danny Superbia are rumbling, as The Prototype knocks down JAGI with a cookie sheet
shot. CLANG! Prototype looks for another weapon, but then spies the KOed form of Cuzin Zeke… and gets an idea. Markham is 275 pounds, he tries to pull
up the dead weight of Zeke. But Zeke’s a big man, even a strong man like Markham isn’t going to have an easy task deadlifting that much man. He’s got Zeke
up in a corner, but having a tough time putting him over… before he can, JAGI attacks the man! The lightweight JAGI through martial arts kicks at The
Prototype as Zeke collapses back down. JAGI opens a steel chair and sets it down, runs, hits a flying spin kick off the chair! Prototype is staggered,
but JAGI’s attention is caught by Danny Superbia hitting a low blow on Nick Everhardt. Sato and Superbia then try to eliminate Nick Everhardt, but Superbia
turns on Sato and tries to dump HIM.

Everhardt and Sato both go over the top rope—

But land on the ring apron. Superbia stomps away, trying to shove them both aside, but suddenly he finds himself whirled around and face to face with JAGI!
Superbia sneers at the man, but JAGI starts firing strikes at the man he “used to” know! SUPERBIA is reeling, JAGI gets a head of steam and FLIES at Superbia…
sending BOTH MEN OVER THE TOP ROPE! JAGI and Danny Superbia are eliminated!

REX CALIBER: JAGI didn’t even care about himself, he just wanted to take out Danny Superbia!

ROB MARTINEZ: JAGI was very vocal this past week about Superbia’s “change of identity” from their time in other promotions… this isn’t over! JAGI and
Superbia are going at it on the floor! We need some security, these two don’t care that the match is over!

Superbia is furious at being eliminated by JAGI, but does he want a piece of the man? He’s getting one whether he likes it or not! They brawl up the aisle
as the crowd goes crazy until security come out to separate the two and restore some “order.” As much order as REBEL ever has at any rate!

REX CALIBER: And I might not have a college education, but I can tell you there are five guys left in the ring!

Galactix gets knocked down by The Prototype with a sick German Suplex. In the other corner, Kaz Sato hits a T-Bone Suplex on Nick Everhardt! But before
he can pick the man up for an elimination attempt, The Prototype charges across the ring looking to SPEAR SPEAR SPEAR Sato — Sato barely sees it coming,
but he drops down and pulls the top rope with him! Prototype’s momentum carries him straight over the top rope! The Prototype has been eliminated! And
that brings us down to four men!

ROB MARTINEZ: Galactix, Kaz Sato, Nick Everhardt, and Cuzin Zeke… one of these four men will become the new #1 Contender!

REX CALIBER: I think Zeke is finally getting up, so this might just be a fair fight.

ROB MARTINEZ: Or not — Galactix, Sato and Everhardt all seem to realize that Zeke is the biggest man left in the match, they’re going after him as one!
REX CALIBER: Can’t argue with that logic, but they maybe didn’t reckon with a pissed off hillbilly!

Zeke just THROWS off all three men with a big power display! Galactix comes back on, Zeke punches him good! Everhardt gets more of the same, as does Sato!
Zeke is shaking the cobwebs loose, he grabs the trash can his head ran into. WHAMMO! GALACTIX TAKES IT! SO DOES SATO! EVERHARDT AS WELL! The crowd is going
crazy, chanting “ZEKE, ZEKE, ZEKE!” Zeke goes to pick up Galactix, but Sato hits him with a dropkick! Everhardt follows up with a stiff forearm shot! Galactix
knocks Zeke’s hands away, and delivers a standing Enziguri! Cuzin Zeke still won’t go down, so all three men grab him by thick legs and lever him… and
finally Zeke goes over the top rope! Cuzin Zeke is eliminated! The crowd gives him a big round of applause, they’re disappointed, but they know Zeke will
be back. He’s a fighter!

REX CALIBER: Three men left!

Sato is the first to strike with a Muay Thai kick to the chest that connects with a sick “thud” to Nick Everhardt, then hits an elbow strike to stun Galactix.
Kaz Sato has the upperhand with both REBEL veterans stunned from his vicious strikes, and he grabs the former Carolinas Champion Galactix. A stiff shot
puts Galactix seated in the corner, and Sato nails a running low Yakuza kick to the face! Brutal! He plays to the crowd, but they’re not too happy to see
their favorites getting dominated by this martial arts machine. Sato doesn’t care, he has a #1 Contendership to win! He picks up Galactix, what’s this?
He’s got him on his shoulders in a Torture Rack! Could be be going for Chemical Imbalance? No! He’s over to the ropes, going to try to dump Galactix over
the top rope that way… but Galactix wriggles! Galactix wriggles off the shoulders, lands OUTSIDE the ropes on the ring apron! Sato tries to nail him,
but Galactix pulls back and then pulls off an UNBELIEVABLE Enziguri kick, somehow landing on the ring apron! Sato staggers backwards — RIGHT INTO EVERHARDT!
KOBASHI SPECIAL! Sato pops up, punch drunk, eyes googly, back red… and it’s Galactix with a huge dropkick to send Sato up and over the top rope! KAZ
SATO HAS BEEN ELIMINATED! And we are down to TWO MEN!

REX CALIBER: Oh, you can feel the damn electricity now! Galactix and Nick Everhardt coulda met at Bring the Pain for the Carolinas Title but both men got
beat by “THE SHOW” CHAD KURTIS! This is it, one of ‘em is going to go for the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!

ROB MARTINEZ: Galactix, the former Carolinas Champion! Everhardt, a former Tag Team Champion! Neither man has ascended to the proverbial top of the mountain
as WORLD champion, though… but only one of them can do it!

Galactix and Everhardt look across the ring from each other, both men covered in sweat and blood, their own and other peoples! Everhardt looks to be bleeding
hardway from a busted eyebrow, blood getting in his eyes. He and Galactix know what’s at stake, they have some respect though… and they go at it! Galactix
with a shot, Everhardt takes it, fires back one of his own! Galactix with a big forearm shot, Everhardt with a forearm shot of his own! Galactix nowhere
near as hard of a striker as Everhardt, staggers backwards. Everhardt hooks the arms for WELCOME TO HOUSTON MOTHER (BLEEP)ER… Galactix gets out, turns
around, and DELIVERS THE GALACTIX SMASH COMBINATION! Everhardt is staggered, Galactix grabs him by the head and runs towards the ropes, tosses him over!
Everhardt hangs onto the top rope as Galactix thinks he’s won. Everhardt skins the cat back in, but Galactix has seen him — Everhardt kicks him in the
face! Nick is back in, he grabs Galactix, fireman’s carry GUTBUSTER! HARDT-BREAKER! Everhardt ROARS to the crowd, he goes to pick up Galactix, goes to
toss him over the ropes — blocked! Galactix starts firing off blows! It’s time once again for SHAKE RATTLE AND ROLL! Everhardt rockin’ and reelin’, Galactix
boogies for the knock-out blow — COUNTERED INTO THE EVERPLEX! Galactix gets up on spaghetti legs and charges Everhardt, who sidesteps, grabs the head
and tosses Galactix OVER THE TOP ROPE! GALACTIX IS ELIMINATED! GALACTIX IS ELIMINATED!

JENNY JERSEY: Here is your winner… and NUMBER ONE CONTENDER! NICK EVERHARDT!

REX CALIBER: GODDAMN RIGHTS!

ROB MARTINEZ: WHAT A WIN BY NICK EVERHARDT! HE IS THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER! WHAT A PERFORMANCE!

REX CALIBER: Galactix was close, but tonight was Everhardt’s! And he hit it straight outta the damn park!

The referees give Everhardt the #1 Contender’s Trophy. He holds it up high in a flash-photography moment, before Galactix gets back in. Galactix locks eyes
with Everhardt through his mask… then extends his hand. Everhardt and Galactix shake and embrace, then Galactix raises Everhardt’s arm, Nick holding
the trophy in his other hand. The G-Man takes his leave as Nick celebrates a hard-fought win, one which he earned with his blood and sweat! When will he
call his title shot… and who will be the champion when he does?

——————————————————————————–

JENNY JERSEY: Ladies and gentlemen, the following is a first round match in the Best of the Best Tournament!

“Believe” by the Bravery hits the speakers, and The Dark Market emerges from the curtains, to great disapproval from the fans.

JENNY JERSEY: Introducing first, at a total combined weight of four hundred and seventy nine pounds: “The Motivator” Bryan Williams, and “The Richest SOB
on the Planet” Eric Thompson. They are THE DARK MARKET!

Thompson and Williams have utter disdain for the fans, focused only on their opponents…

“Soul Bossa Nova” takes over the speakers, and the mood in the arena definitely changes as TDM’s opponents make their way to the ring…

JENNY JERSEY: And their opponents! Making their way to the ring, at a total combined weight of five hundred and seven pounds: “The International Man of
Hardcore” Inferno! “Papa Rock and Roll” Shoe! They are the GREAT ALASKAN NINJAS!!

A huge pop for the veterans, who dance their way to the ring… Thompson and Williams will have none of that, as they charge out of the ring and towards
their opponents! And we have a brawl in the aisle before referee Dale McDonald can even call for the bell! Shoe and Williams trade punches against the
guard rail, as Inferno chops Thompson hard across the chest! Inferno tosses Thompson into the ring and slides in after him. Thompson is on his feet first,
and goes for a stiff kick, Inferno ducks it, rises up and hits a European uppercut that knocks Thompson into the corner! Inferno goes for a Stinger splash…
Thompson pulled out of the way by Williams! Inferno is catching his breath after crashing into the turnbuckles, and the Dark Market hits a Double arm suplex!
Inferno dropped face first onto the mat, and Thompson and Williams celebrate… a bit too early, as Shoe is in the ring! He grabs Thompson and Williams
and hits a Noggin Knocker! Both members of the Dark Market stagger, as Shoe back rakes Williams, then clotheslines Thompson to the mat! And now he has
time to bust a move for the crowd, and they go crazy!

ROB MARTINEZ: The Great Alaskan Ninjas don’t look like they’ve missed a step since they left the sport!

REX CALIBER: But they can’t take their focus off the Dark Market. These guys will hurt you if given half the chance…

Thompson is back up and he tries to sneak up on a dancing Shoe… only for Shoe to turn around at the last second! And he points an accusing finger at Thompson,
who tries to back away… only to run into Inferno! And now Inferno with a punch to Thompson, who staggers into Shoe! Shoe with a punch, knocking Thompson
back to Inferno! Inferno with a punch, and Thompson falls back towards Shoe! Thompson being pinballed between the GAN, and the fans are loving it! At least
until Williams breaks it up by clipping the knee of Shoe! Papa Rock and Roll falls to one knee, and Thompson regains composure enough to hit a enziguri!
No time for a cover, as Inferno charges Thompson, taking him over the top rope and to the floor! Williams goes for a crossface on Shoe, trying to wear
the big man down. On the outside, Inferno has whipped Thompson into the guard rail, sending the rich SOB into the crowd! Inferno climbs onto the announcer’s
table and dives onto Thompson in the crowd…

Thompson grabs a chair and hucks it at Inferno! The International Man of Hardcore hits the floor hard! And Thompson uses the moment to land some hard chair
shots to Inferno’s back! Meanwhile in the ring Williams still has the crossface locked in, and Shoe looks to be fading! Referee McDonald lifts the arm
of Shoe once, and lets it drop. He lifts it again, and again it drops. He lifts it one more time…. And it stays up! Shoe starts feeding off the cheers
as the fans as he pumps his arm and fights to his knees, and then to his feet! Williams tries to hang on, but Shoe is feeling the adrenaline! Williams
lays in with forearms to the back of Shoe, but they have no effect! Finally Williams decides to save some time, and he gouges the eyes! Huge heat from
the fans for the cheap way out, but Williams doesn’t care, he drops Shoe with a back suplex, then goes for a cover! ONE! TWO! Shoe kicks out!

ROB MARTINEZ: Williams may not endear himself to the fans, but he gets the job done in the ring!

On the outside, Thompson has wrapped the Mic cord around the throat of Inferno, trying to choke the big man out. Inferno fights back with some elbows to
the gut of Thompson, finally getting him to loosen his hold, and to get some air back into his lungs. Thompson tries to whip Inferno into the guard rail,
but Inferno plants his feet, and goes nowhere. Thompson with a kick to the gut, tries to whip him again, this time succeeding… Inferno with the reversal!
Thompson manages to slide to his knees, avoiding contact with the railing! He turns around, and gets a a Stinger Splash onto the railing! Both men crash
into the front row!

Back in the ring, Williams has locked on a chin lock, again trying to keep the bigger opponent grounded. Shoe grabs the bottom rope, but Williams refuses
to release the hold. Shoe then grabs the second rope, and starts pulling himself to his feet. Williams jumps on Shoe’s back and goes for a sleeper! Shoe
grabs Williams’ legs, then backs him into the corner! Williams releases the old on impact, and sinks to the mat! On the floor, Thompson has gotten his
hands on another chair, and swings it at Inferno… Inferno blocks it, hucks it back at Thompson, who ducks, looks back up, and gets a drop kick from Inferno!
Thompson sent back over the guard rail! Inferno follows! Thompson to the ring apron, dives off onto Inferno! Inferno caught off guard, and Thompson seizes
the opportunity, hitting a Northern Lights Suplex! But there’s no covers on the floor, so he goes back into the ring to help his partner, who is about
to be hit with a Death Valley Driver! Thompson clips Shoe’s already injured knee! Shoe drops Williams, who lands on his feet, and hits the ropes, coming
back with a Shining Wizard! Shoe goes down! Thompson to the top rope, comes back with a Moonsault! He covers! One.. two.. Shoe kicks out! Both Dark Market
members look incredulous at this, and they argue with McDonald!

REX CALIBER: This is a mistake! They have him down, they need to finish him, not argue!

Indeed, for they fail to see Inferno climb back into the ring. Thompson turns around to catch a boot to the gut! And now Inferno with the FireStar DDT!
Williams tries to help, but is grabbed by Shoe, who whips him around and hits ROCKSTAR! And now Shoe seems to be feeling the energy of the crowd as he
stands over Williams. He slowly pulls off his elbow pad and tosses it to the front row! And now he hits the ropes! He hits the other ropes! And he comes
back and NAILS..

A Hoganesque leg drop!

ROB MARTINEZ: Other Foot Baby!

Shoe with the cover! One.. Two.. Thompson breaks up the cover! Inferno catches him… DANGER BOMB!! Thompson rolls out of the ring, in serious pain, as
Shoe hauls Williams up! Inferno to the top rope! Shoe hits a slingshot suplex! Inferno follows it up with the BACKDRAFT SSP! He hooks the leg for the cover!
ONE!! TWO!! THREE!!

JENNY JERSEY: Here are your winners: THE GREAT ALASKAN NINJAS!!

Shoe and Inferno celebrate as the fans give them a HUGE ovation! They try to entice Jenny to join them in the ring for a dance. Miss Jersey seems to be
a bit bashful (surprisingly), but the fans urge on to join them. But the cheers turn to yells as Thompson crawls back into the ring, chair in hand! He
smacks it across the injured knee of Shoe! Inferno tries to help his partner, but Williams nails him with a low blow! Thompson cracks the chair over the
head of Inferno! And now Williams drops him with an Olympic Slam! Shoe tries to get back to his feet, but Thompson lays into him with more chair shots!
They both haul him up, and whip him to the ropes…TDM!! The Great Alaskan Ninjas have been left laying! Thompson throws down the chair, and he and Williams
exit.

ROB MARTINEZ: The Great Alaskan Ninjas win their REBEL debut, but The Dark Market maybe get the last laugh! What a brutal attack!

REX CALIBER: That might put the Great Alaskan Ninjas at a disadvantage in the next round at REBEL Underground. But it’s the GAN advancing, not The Dark
Market!

——————————————————————————–

“I’m A Country Boy” by Lynyrd Skynyrd blares through the Grady Cole Center and the crowd erupts in cheers as The Ragin’ Redneck, Bubba J, calmly walks
down to the ring. He slaps the hands of the fans who reach out to try and touch a real wrestler. He grabs a microphone and rolls under the bottom rope,
the crowd hasn’t died down yet.

BUBBA J: “Asheville North Carolina!”

The crowd pops loudly.

BUBBA J: “Last week, I had the first match of the journey with Vincent Black.”

The crowd boos at the name mentioned.

BUBBA J: “Yeah, I know I know. But in talking with management, mainly paying off that stupid fine, I asked if I could choose a tag team partner of my own.”
The crowd cheers again at the thoughts of Bubba J having a different partner, one of his choosing.

BUBBA J: “The general agreement was that I could not. I could not pick a different partner because they had put me with Vincent Black.”

Crowd boos again.

BUBBA J: “I kindly reminded them that I was only under a contract for a few more shows as they tried out my talent; you know giving me a trial run. They
liked my work, liked my personality.”

Fan in the crowd: “Except for you wanting to kick their ass!”

BUBBA J: “Yeah, except for that. They said that if I would sign a full term contract, I could choose my own partner, but I had to become a full time tag
team and not just singles wrestlers that teamed once in awhile. I agreed to that, and signed the contract.”

The crowd cheers louder than before.

BUBBA J: “So, without further ado, allow me to introduce my new tag team partner… a gutsy guy who is as hardcore as myself…”

The crowd cheers.

“Carbomb” by The Acacia Strain hits the speakers and the crowd begins to boo. Bubba J looks mad enough to spit fire. Vincent ignores the crowd and walks
up the ring steps and into the ring. Both him and Bubba J stand toe to toe, looks of rage etched on both of their faces.

BUBBA J: “Ladies and gentlemen… my tag team partner all the way from Glens Falls, New York… Vincent Black!”

The crowd doesn’t boo, they don’t cheer, they are just shocked.

BUBBA J: “Yeah, you did right Asheville, just by shutting the hell up. See, some things you don’t know and can’t find out on the internet. Many of you think
you know wrestling, know the ins and outs, but did any of you see this coming? The answer is a big fat Hell No!”

Vincent grins sadistically, Bubba J joins him in the grin.

BUBBA J: “Yeah I hated him to begin with, couldn’t stand him; but we got to talking after the match and well… Hardcore Entertainment was born. So, from
this time forward… you are looking at the team known as…”

Together they say: “Hardcore Entertainment!”

BUBBA J: “Don’t like it… you ain’t getting your money back. You little kiddies want to burn your Bubba J stuff, go ahead mommie and daddy already paid
for it. I don’t really care, hate me, fine, you ain’t the first and if I get my way it won’t be the last. Come on Vincent, we got a match to prepare for.”
The crowd still in utter shock, but a few are beginning to boo loudly.

With the newly united Hardcore Entertainment soaking in the anger from the crowd, “Corduroy” by Pearl Jam begins to play and the fans aren’t any happier
because of it.

ROB MARTINEZ: What a tag match this one is going to end up being. With the emergence of Hardcore Entertainment and now the NAPW Tag Team Champions gracing
the ring, it’s a who’s who of teams these fans are NOT going to like.

REX CALIBER: I think the way the fans win tonight, Robbie, is if BOTH sides get their butts handed to them.

The NAPW Tag Team Champions, Chris Casino and Evan Cartwright swagger out from the back, and both men are none to pleased with the situation as is. They
hesitate coming to the ring, pointing and shouting at Black and The Bubba J standing in the ring.

JENNY JERSEY: And their opponents weighing in at a combined weight of Four Hundred and Forty-two and one forth pounds… they are CHRIS CASINO AND EVAN
CARTWRIGHT!

The booing continues, as if the fans haven’t made it clear enough that they aren’t fond of either team.

ROB MARTINEZ: Looks like the NAPW tag champions are having second thoughts about this match up, Rex.

REX CALIBER: Yeah, well if they can’t handle the neighborhood, they should walk their dog elsewhere, ya know?

ROB MARTINEZ: I hope you’re not referring to Monique as a dog?

REX CALIBER: No it was a metaphor, Robbie. Ever heard of one of those?

Casino and Cartwright finally prep themselves enough to head to the ring, but then stop again. But Evan Cartwright stops suddenly and just shakes his head,
waving the ring off and he turns around! BOOOOOO! The crowd doesn’t like that.

And neither do Bubba J and Vincent Black… because here they come!

ROB MARTINEZ: If Casino and Cartwright aren’t going to bring the fight to the ring… it looks like Hardcore Entertainment is bringing the fight to them!
There is a small pop from the crowd as Bubba J charges like a mad man. Casino reacts and swings with a standing lariat attempt, only for Bubba J to duck,
but run right into THE PERFECT UPPERCUT! Black gets a hold of Casino though, takes him by the arm and whips him towards the ring. Casino stops himself
and scrambles into the ring as Black comes after him. Meanwhile with Bubba J reeling, Cartwright takes a hold of him and starts firing stiff open palm
chops across the chest. Bubba J answers back with a reckless headbutt that just drops Cartwright down onto the floor. Bubba J heads back to the ring now
where Black and Casino have OFFICIALLY started the match.

Casino is whipped into the corner, bounces off right into the hands of Black.

ROB MARTINEZ: Looking for the double choke slam….

But Casino winds up and NAILS A BLATANT LOW BLOW!

REX CALIBER: For a team that craps on Rebel being “garbage” Casino sure as hell didn’t hesitate on the boot to the nuts.

Black winces in pain, grabbing at his lower region and Casino LEAPS with a flipping dropkick! Black stumbles back and now Bubba J in the ring, but the referee
calling for him to clear out. as Bubba J and the referee argue Casino drives a low dropkick into Black’s legs, knocking him off his feet, and then is right
there CHOKING THE LIFE OUT OF BLACK! The fans boo loudly and as the referee turns around Casino hops up to his feet and plays innocent, drawing the ire
of the crowd. Bubba J isn’t buying it and STORMS THE RING!

ROB MARTINEZ: Here comes the Raging Redneck… no tag made but right now it doesn’t seem to matter.

REX CALIBER: What’s the referee going to do, disqualify him? This is REBEL baby!

Bubba J and Casino duke it out now, throwing hard shots back and forth. Casino dodges a swinging hook, sweeps around behind Bubba J, but Bubba J turns quick
enough and starts firing straight jabs to the face! Casinos’ head snaps back with each hit, then Bubba J grabs him and whips him into the corner post.
Cartwright there though and tags himself in just as Casino staggers out, kick to the gut…

TRAILER PARK TRASH!

ROB MARTINEZ: Bubba J with a HUGE stunner on Casino, but he’s not the legal man and here comes Cartwright… DIVING clothesline!

REX CALIBER: So they’ll low blow a guy but still make clean tags? Good to know Casino & Cartwright ain’t ever changed!

Bubba J is knocked off his feet and immediately Cartwright attempts to bring this one back into wrestling by looking to get Bubba J in a Fujiwara armbar,
but as he attempts to lock it on, Bubba J struggles and Black is right back into the thick of things DRILLING Cartwright in the head with a big boot shot!
Cartwright falls off to the side but gets up, holding his head in pain. Black capitalizes with a hooking punch into the gut and then he pulls Cartwright
into a standing head scissors… he’s looking for a power bomb… but as he lifts Cartwright, Cartwright starts throwing hard shots into Black’s head,
allowing himself to flip back down onto his feet.

Cartwright continues to throw punches at Black after that, but Black brings a side knee lift in, doubling Cartwright over again.

ROB MARTINEZ: Vincent Black going to try this again, the big power coming in handy against these two technical cruiserweights.

The fans boo, but some of the Rebel die hards cheer on Black but now Casino is up… SPRINGBOARDS off the corner turnbuckles and FLIES at Black with a cross
body! Black CATCHES Casino in mid-air!

REX CALIBER: Look at that, Robbie! He’s got Cartwright in the head scissors and now he’s got Casino held in the cross body! This is insane!

Black immediately SLAMS Casino down across the back of Cartwright! The makeshift back breaker gets a pop from the crowd but the Cartwright grabs both legs
and suddenly sweeps the big man off his feet and FLIPS over for a leg capture pin! The referee counts…

ONE!

TWO!

Bubba J in to break up the count… and now Casino back up and he and Bubba J getting right back into it!

ROB MARTINEZ: And the brawling commences!

REX CALIBER: That’s what I’m talkin’ about. Welcome to Rebel C and C, enjoy your violent stay!

ROB MARTINEZ: You’re not fans of those two, are you?

REX CALIBER: Hell no! I got a lot of friends from NAPW, they ain’t two of them!

As Bubba J goes at Casino, he attempts another stunner, but this time Casino grabs Bubba J’s leg and then SPINS with a high hook heel kick! Bubba J is knocked
to the side and the referee tries to get both men out of the ring… Casino abides by the rules, but Bubba J chases right after him… Cartwright GRABS
him from behind and just YANKS down as hard as he can with a sudden reverse DDT. Casino stands in his corner now, shouting for the tag to be made, and
Cartwright makes it… Casino up to the top rope, TOP ROPE ELBOW DROP CONNECTS!

ROB MARTINEZ: The high risk high impact pays off and now a cover made on Bubba J!

REX CALIBER: Watch out!

Vincent Black returns in the picture, he is wielding a steel chair! Casino ducks a VIOLENT swing of the chair, but Black charges the corner and CHUCKS the
chair right at Cartwright!

ROB MARTINEZ: That’s a headache and a half!

REX CALIBER: But it lives up to the name of Hardcore Entertainment… because it was just that, Robbie, hardcore, and entertaining.

With Cartwright down Black turns back to Casino who taunts Black. Black slowly moves in towards him while Bubba J gets up behind him. Casino backs up right
into Bubba J and he just shakes his head, he turns and manages to catch Bubba J with a hard shot, but Black immediately grabs him, lifts Casino HIGH up
and drops him with an inverted atomic drop! Casino hops up and down; wincing in pain and Casino is then DRILLED with a clothesline from Bubba J!

ROB MARTINEZ: And now after the use of the chair, the brawling this one in the firm control of Hardcore Entertainment.

Black and Bubba J pace about the ring a bit, the fans booing them, but again some cheers are heard as well. Bubba J suddenly stops, then looks to the outside,
and quickly exits the ring. Meanwhile Black lifts Casino up, looking for his finisher in the form of The New Hope… but Bubba J ADDS to this by sliding
a TABLE into the ring.

REX CALIBER: The icing on top of the cake, Robbie.

ROB MARTINEZ: As if the chair wasn’t enough, here comes the table, and there shoving “garbage” wrestling right into the faces of Cartwright and Casino.
The blood-thirty crowd makes some more noise as Bubba J sets up the table and Black just nods his head, seeing the same thing his tag team partner is seeing.
With the table set, Bubba J joins Black by his side, but Cartwright for an attempted save… NO! Bubba J spins and just DRILLS him with a haymaker punch!
Cartwright down, Bubba J and Black are now both focused on Casino.

ROB MARTINEZ: What goes up, Rex — !

Bubba J and Black both HOIST Casino WAY HIGH UP… they hold him… HOLD HIM… AND THEN SEND HIM CRASHING THROUGH THE TABLE VIA A POWERBOMB!!!

REX CALIBER: Must come down!

ROB MARTINEZ: The shattered remnants of the table and the broken body of Chris Casino is all that remains… Vincent Black with the cover, and I think it’s
safe to say…

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

ROB MARTINEZ: It’s over.

JENNY JERSEY: The winners of this match, and advancing in the Best of The Best Tag Team Tournament… the team of VINCENT BLACK and The RAGIN’ REDNECK…
HARDCORE ENTERTAINMENT!!!

——————————————————————————–

“Guess Who’s Back…”

The sellout crowd is on their feet as the theme music of ‘The Show’ Chad Kurtis blasts thru the sound system, but ‘The Show’ is nowhere to be found…

“I used to be broke, confused..no joke…”

Fans stare at the entrance ramp but still no sign of ‘The Show.’

“They say I’m cocky, and I say What? It ain’t braggin’ (BLEEP) if ya back it up!
They say I’m cocky, and I say What? It ain’t braggin’ (BLEEP) if ya back it up!”

Finally ‘The Show’ is spotted making his way thru the crowd exchanging high fives with the men and hugs with the ladies before reaching the security rails.
‘The Show’ then takes off his hoodie and tosses into the crowd before sprinting to the ring apron and baseball sliding into the ring…

“THE SHOW” CHAD KURTIS: Hello Aaaaaaaaaaaaashville….I know everyone is surprised to see ‘The Show’ here, after all he ain’t got a match tonight. Like
that’s ever stopped me from making my precise know. You see I flew all the way back from way up north in Red Deer just to come back to the Carolinas to
celebrate this little piece of hardware (pats the Carolina belt and gets a huge pop from the crowd) last time I in action for Rebel Pro. Damn, did you
guys see me in action that night. I hope you did if not you need to get the DVD. Two matches. One night. Could anyone, besides ‘The Show’ pull that off.
I mean that first match against Everhardt was one for the ages (huge pop), but my night was done it I had to limp out and face a determined champion in
Galactix to be able to once again call myself the Carolina champion, and you know what I did it! I told everyone that I was going to win the title and
I did.

The crowd chants “SHOW, SHOW, SHOW.” Chad calls for quiet and goes on.

“THE SHOW” CHAD KURTIS: But, I didn’t stop there or no. ‘The Show’ has a big mouth and he said he was going to became the greatest Carolina champion in
Rebel history, and you know what he’s going to keep that promise, too. Now, don’t get me wrong I know there is some stiff competition just waiting for
their shot at my title and that’s good ’cause ‘The Show’ is going to be a fighting champion. That reminds me somebody said they demanded an shot at my
belt. I just can’t quite put my finger on it. It was way back on August 29th. Who could it be? Oh yeah, that’s right it my fellow Kentuckian, Cuzin’ Zeke.
Okay, Zeke, you want you shot your shot you got your shot (big pop). October 7th in Raleigh good for you? Oh yeah, I also remember you saying something
about having a good ol’ Kentucky style matches, so I think maybe we should make this a Kentucky lumberjack match. But, not just any Kentucky lumberjack
match in this one the fans will pick the lumberjacks (big pop). I think they like that idea. Back to ‘Bring the Pain’. We already talked about how great
of a night it was for me. Truly one for the highlights reels. Truly one that you could reflect on and say that it proved that I am the best there was,
the best there is…

Crowd finishes the familiar Bret Hart saying with, ‘the best there ever will be…

“THE SHOW” CHAD KURTIS: I almost forgot there someone in the locker room who took offense to me quoting the great Bret Hart. Someone who also had a night
to remember at ‘Bring the Pain’. Someone who claims that he is heads and shoulders above the rest of us here in Rebel. Who is this man? None other then
our new world champion, Paul Jarvis (boos erupt throughout the arena). Now, now be nice this is the man that is going to save us (crowd begins to chant
“Jarvis is a pussy”). C’mon be nice I am talking about the self-proclaimed miracle worker, the self-proclaimed God’s champion (chants continue). I guess
that’s how you really feel then ain’t it? The way I see it is for all the talking that Jarvis likes to do he hasn’t been doing much backing up. Jarvis
said he can beat anyone on the roster basically without even trying. That’s good I like confidence in a champion.

But what I want to know is why my challenge has went unanswered! Jarvis claims I have no shot against him, so maybe he’s trying to save me from myself.
You know to keep me from embarrassing myself. I mean I issued my challenge back 10-11 days ago and still no answer! Well, Jarvis may challenge stands me
and you at Blood Wars on October 14th. Title for title. Watcha say their miracle worker, are you game.? Pot not rich enough for you yet. Okay, then ‘The
Show’ will raise the stakes and make it a 30 minute iron man match. How’s that grab you? Jarvis is time to put up or shut up. Prove this crowd wrong. Show
them you ain’t no pussy. Accept my challenge, so I can prove to you what this crowd and ‘The Show’ already knows that I am the best there was, the best
there… Oh sorry about that. I almost forget you don’t like it when I quote Bret Hart. So, here’s one I came up with on my own. Accept my challenge so
I can prove to you what this crowd and ‘The Show’ already knows that I am the ‘Then! Now! Next!’

On that note ‘The Show’ slides out of the ring climbs the security railing and stage dives in the crowd as chants of “THEN NOW NEXT, THEN NOW NEXT!” breaks
out…

——————————————————————————–

“Just Like You” by Three Days Grace starts up over the venue’s sound system. Knowing who uses this music, the crowd releases a chorus of boos that drown
out the music.

JENNY JERSEY: Introducing first, the champion–

You can’t imagine the loud booing at the word “champion.”

JENNY JERSEY: — from Afton, New York; he weighs two hundred seventeen pounds… “THE MIRACLE WORKER” PAUL JARVIS!!!

Jarvis brings his arms out to his side as he walks to the ring, a motion that seems like he’s looking to be embraced by the world. The REBEL World Title
hangs from his shoulder.

REX CALIBER: Why is Jarvis coming out first?

ROB MARTINEZ: Apparently, there was a fan petition to keep Jarvis from entering last. I think one person said that they would sooner, and I quote, “Drink
Caliber’s ass-sweat” than see Paul Jarvis get a higher introductory billing than Jake Phoenix. So some changes had to be applied.

REX CALIBER: I see.

After Paul Jarvis climbs into the ring, the music changes to “Surprise! You’re Dead” to indicate that he’s done and now everybody’s favorite hope to dethrone
Jarvis is here at last.

JENNY JERSEY: And his opponent, from Fort Lauderdale, Florida; weighing two hundred eighty-nine pounds… “The Career Killer!”

After that, the rest of the name couldn’t even be heard.

JENNY JERSEY: JAKE! PHOENIX!

The much larger wrestler would normally stalk down to the ring to allow his opponents time to reflect upon their doom as, after all the grandstanding and
promo hype, that man would have to actually stand there and deal with being only seconds away from impending agony. But tonight, Jake Phoenix walks with
speed and purpose, wishing to waste no time in getting his hands onto Paul Jarvis.

ROB MARTINEZ: Look at Jarvis!

The Miracle Worker decides that the best way to get the upper hand on Phoenix is to start on the attack. To whit, Paul Jarvis sprints to the edge of the
ring and throws a low dropkick to the chest of the Career Killer, knocking him backward.

REX CALIBER: The crowd doesn’t like it, but that’s what you have to do against Jake Phoenix. Everybody knew that this wasn’t going to start with a collar
and tie-up and “feeling out” process.

ROB MARTINEZ: Jarvis is gonna need his speed and unpredictability to take down the man with nearly a foot and more than one hundred pounds on him. Phoenix,
of course, will need to catch the Miracle Worker in order to lay in his hard punches and slams. A solidly-grounded brawler against a versatile flier; bit
of a contrast in styles but it should make for a dynamic match-up if Jarvis can play it right, because the fact is that, while he is the champion, the
size difference means that Paul Jarvis has to take the fight to Jake Phoenix.

REX CALIBER: As he’s doing now.

Paul Jarvis steps out onto the apron and gives Jake a kick to the head as he comes around.

REX CALIBER: Keeping the challenger dazed; Paul Jarvis has to keep hitting and hitting and not giving Jake Phoenix a chance to think or breathe.

ROB MARTINEZ: The Miracle Worker ascends to the top rope, he measures Jake Phoenix, and there’s the leap off with the Shooting Star PlancHOLYCRAPWHATASPINEBUSTER!
Paul Jarvis is all but implanted into the floor after Jake Phoenix takes authority in the match in a big way.

REX CALIBER: That looked so damaging, even I felt it!

ROB MARTINEZ: Jake Phoenix caught Jarvis in midair and turned an offensive high-risk attempt into the baddest spinebuster we’ve seen in months!

After a few moments of “You. Are. DEAD.” facial expressions from Jake Phoenix, he tosses Paul Jarvis back into the ring and makes a nonchalant cover.

One… Two… Shoulder up!

ROB MARTINEZ: I don’t think Phoenix really wanted that cover.

REX CALIBER: Of course not. He wants to beat 7 colors of snot out of Paul Jarvis. That, my good Rob, was a test. Jarvis kicked out, so he passed and will
get beat like the athlete he is.

ROB MARTINEZ: And if he didn’t kick out?

REX CALIBER: Then… well, then Phoenix would have been REALLY angry. And the match would have been over, but it wouldn’t have stopped.

Phoenix gets a handful of Paul’s hair and yanks him back to his feet. Chops to the chest… are not what the Career Killer bothers to do. No, he unloads
with punches from the half-pistons, half-pythons that are his arms. The handful of hair keeps Jarvis within arm’s range to deal with, and each punch dazes
the already stunned REBEL-Pro World Champion.

REX CALIBER: If not for the hardcore nature of the federation, and if it were another man, the referee would call for a break.

ROB MARTINEZ: Not to mention the crowd is following along in a part-catharsis, part vicarious glee with every punch landed to Jarvis’s head.

But this line of attack doesn’t last forever. A knee to the stomach momentarily drives the air out of Paul Jarvis’s body. From there, a gutwrench hoist
is easy for the muscular brawler, who drives the champion into the mat with a powerbomb!

ROB MARTINEZ: Jake Phoenix is having his way with the champion. I can’t believe that this is just business for him.

REX CALIBER: Does it matter at this point?.

ROB MARTINEZ: Phoenix isn’t going for the pin.

REX CALIBER: He’s making a statement to Paul Jarvis. A direct message — this is Jake Phoenix’s ring, that’s Jake Phoenix’s title, it’s Jake Phoenix’s *world*
and he’s making Paul Jarvis see the light.

Standing over Paul Jarvis, Phoenix drops the fist into the forehead of the upstart champion. Jarvis feels it, covering his head. Phoenix kicks his arms
away and does another fist drop. Standing back up again, Jake Phoenix runs to the ropes and returns for the SUPER-MASSIVE ULTRA-DEVASTATING… step on
Paul’s midsection. It isn’t even a stomp, he just puts a foot on the stomach and walks right over the newcomer in a show of complete disrespect.

ROB MARTINEZ: And Jake Phoenix turns around with a full-on field goal kick to the left ear!

REX CALIBER: WHOA! We almost had the first headless champion in wrestling history!

Faced with such an onslaught, Paul Jarvis’s survival instinct kicks in and he rolls to the edge of the ring to escape to the outside. But Jake Phoenix stomps
him in the small of the back to stop him from leaving.

REX CALIBER: Phoenix is lifting Jarvis off of the mat in a Fallaway Slam position. He just shouted at the ringside fans for some reason.

ROB MARTINEZ: And he’s turning back toward the center of the ring. Steps forwa– wait, no he doesn’t. Oh my god, he’s not going to do this!

REX CALIBER: He is!

ROB MARTINEZ: FALLAWAY SLAM TO THE OUTSIDE!

REX CALIBER: He cleared the security railing with that! No wonder he yelled at the fans, he was telling them to move!

Phoenix landed hardway not on the floor, but on a small field of chairs. The weight distribution being all-wrong, the body landed awkwardly. Though he doesn’t
move much, one can see “The Miracle Worker” favoring his back.

ROB MARTINEZ: Jake Phoenix is following to the outside… he’s calling the referee.

REX CALIBER: But first he’s– CURB STOMP!

ROB MARTINEZ: And Paul Jarvis is bleeding all over his face!

The nose is a veritable faucet from which blood pours, and his mouth leaks as well. Not a pretty sight, but one by which the arena crowd ERUPTS in cheers.
REX CALIBER: Pinfall!

ONE! TWO! KICKOUT!

REX CALIBER: How did Paul Jarvis kick out of that?! I guess he really is a Miracle Worker!

ROB MARTINEZ: Well he had to have some resiliency to him if he got hired. But Jake Phoenix… he’s not putting on a clinic, but we’ll definitely have to
get an all-night clinic on call for this beating that The Career Killer is dishing out tonight!

But Jake Phoenix is only encouraged to increase the violence by Paul Jarvis’s kickout. The beating is most certainly going to continue, but as Jarvis refuses
to lose, he solidifies in a sense that he is worth the beating. That this isn’t just about proving a point, that in a weird kind of competitor’s spirit,
Paul Jarvis should go through hell and lose after getting hit with the kitchen sink, rather than falling to the first few moves with which he’s hit.

WHAP! Such is the sound of the folding chair that hits Paul Jarvis in the back as he attempts to crawl away. The requisite scream of pain can be heard over
the local section cheering. WHAP! Another chairshot. These immobilize Jarvis, who’s in shock from how much he’s hurting.

ROB MARTINEZ: Look at how dented that chair is!

The Career Killer grabs another handful of hair, before lifting The Miracle Worker into the air with a vertical suplex hoist. The stall is thirteen seconds,
the blood rushing to the champ’s head. Jake Phoenix drops the bracing arm — as opposed to the load bearing arm that’s holding Paul up — to flip the man
off. And then we get to see the Brainbuster!

REX CALIBER: Just in case anybody was in doubt of Jake’s feelings about Paul Jarvis.

Another pinning cover follows, the match easily assured.

One! Two! THRKICKOUT!

ROB MARTINEZ: What is keeping Paul Jarvis alive?

REX CALIBER: He’s got that champion’s tenacity. That unrelenting will to survive and win. True, he’s not much gotten around to the “win” part of things,
but this survival thing is in the bag.

Jake Phoenix pulls The Miracle Worker to his feet, and proceeds to beat ass all around the arena. For the most part, it’s punches, with the occasional chairshot
or whip into the hard, hard wall. But this roving ass-kicking goes on for the better part of five minutes until Jake Phoenix has seemingly gotten bored
of moving around.

ROB MARTINEZ: It looks like they’re coming back out this way.

REX CALIBER: Yeah, and Paul Jarvis looks all but dead, slung over Phoenix’s shoulder.

ROB MARTINEZ: Jake Phoenix wants to end this now, front and center in the middle of the ring for all to see.

Paul Jarvis is tossed into the ring, with Jake Phoenix moving in behind him.

ROB MARTINEZ: Look at Phoenix throttle Jarvis, pulling him off the mat just by choking him!

The World Champion is turned over, inverted in a bear hug, as Jake Phoenix signals the end. The stall is deliberate, turning to every side of the ring in
order to allow everyone to ucla pharmacy see the imminent downfall of the transitional champion.

REX CALIBER: This is it! The end of Paul Jarvis’s reign as World Champion!

ROB MARTINEZ: TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!

The biggest pop of the night comes in the form of the crowd blowing up over The Career Killer’s finisher. He hasn’t always had the people’s approval, in
fact he’s been a downright heel at times, but tonight, everybody is behind him as he turns over Paul Jarvis’s lifeless body and makes the lateral press.
ROB MARTINEZ: ONE! TWO! THREE!

REX CALIBER: FLYING DOUBLE STOMP!

Immediate, loud booing resumes for the first time since the match started, as Paul Jarvis’s female associate Envy leaps in with the springboard flying attack
to interrupt Jake Phoenix’s pin.

ROB MARTINEZ: No! This is not how this match should be playing out! It’s a contest of individuals!

REX CALIBER: This is despicable, but thanks to the lax rulebook, completely legal.

The mammoth Wrath, who is of comparable size to Phoenix, lays in with stomps to the head. Jake Phoenix backs off and attempts to get to his feet, but Wrath
continues to unload with a combination of punches. Phoenix hits a knee to the midsection, doubling over the big man, but Envy is right in step and leaps
off of her bent over partner with a Shining Wizard!

REX CALIBER: Jake Phoenix is backed into the corner!

Wrath moves in with back elbows and forearms, looking to do more damage on Jake Phoenix. After a few more hits, Wrath goes to Envy in the other corner and
whips her in at Phoenix with a jumping heel kick.

ROB MARTINEZ: Envy gets dumped to the outside! Wrath runs in, Big Boot! And a clothesline! And another! Jake Phoenix is fired up!

The Career Killer meets the rising Wrath with punches to the face, backing him into the ropes. An irish whip leads into a back body drop, and Wrath rolls
to the corner in retreat.

REX CALIBER: CHAIRSHOT TO THE FACE!

Paul Jarvis, half dead, cracks the metal into Jake Phoenix’s face, but it only stuns him. A second chairshot hits, but only takes to The Career Killer down
to a knee. Finally, the Snap DDT onto the chair leaves Jake Phoenix on sprawled out onto the mat. Dropping the heavily-bent piece of metal, Paul Jarvis
collapses onto Jake Phoenix and barely gains the energy to hook a leg.

REX CALIBER: This match just changed completely, but in the wrong way!

ONE! TWO! NOOOOOOOO! Jake Phoenix escapes!

Paul Jarvis can hardly hold his head up. Wrath is recovering, and Envy tries to pull herself back into the ring. Jarvis orders the troops to descend upon
Phoenix, and they do with chairs of their own.

ROB MARTINEZ: NO! Paul Jarvis may have been able to win in some way, but it shouldn’t be like this! Not like this!

Stacking the chairs on the mat, Wrath and Envy drag Jake Phoenix to his feet. Wrath turns him around and hoists up the challenger in a Kudoh Driver position.
Using his leg and back strength, he holds in place for Envy to grab the head. Paul Jarvis uses the last bit of energy he has left in the tank to add into
it as well, and the triple team Kudoh Driver-Inverted DDTs DRILL Jake Phoenix’s head and neck into the steel of the folding chairs.

REX CALIBER: Oh my god, what a move!

ROB MARTINEZ: And the ref can’t do a thing about it! This is so wrong!

Envy pulls Jarvis onto his fallen challenger, while Wrath strong-arms the referee into counting a relatively quick pin.

ONE!! TWO!! THREE!!!

No heroic kickout. No divine retribution. No belief in miracles happening the way that they’re supposed to. By hook and by crook, Paul Jarvis is declared
the winner with the ringing of the bell. The crowd begins to chant “BULL-SHIT, BULL-SHIT.”

ROB MARTINEZ: That damn Paul Jarvis! He stole this match from Jake Phoenix!

REX CALIBER: And the fans are FURIOUS about it!

Wrath holds the bloodied, nearly passed out Paul Jarvis up while Envy retrieves the REBEL Pro Wrestling World Championship.

JENNY JERSEY: Here is your winner, and STILL REBEL Pro World Champion, PAUL JARVIS!

REX CALIBER: You call that a champion? Look at that mess, Paul Jarvis is a miracle worker — miracle he escaped with his LIFE much less his title tonight!
ROB MARTINEZ: Jake Phoenix took Paul Jarvis out behind the proverbial woodshed for almost the entire match, it took three individuals and a heapload of
steel chairs to put Jake Phoenix out. I hope Paul Jarvis is proud of this “title reign!” of his!

Wrath pretty much scoops Jarvis over his shoulder as Envy carries the REBEL title belt to the back, Jarvis muttering unintelligibly through his blood soaked
faced. Perhaps he’s speaking in tongues, or more likely, he’s been beaten silly. The crowd showers the trio with boos and hatred as they disappear through
the curtain.

Meanwhile, in the ring, Jake Phoenix stirs on the pile of destroyed steel chairs. The big man begins to get to his feet, wincing in pain. He realizes what
has happened. Yet again a World Title has slipped through his grasp, but this time, he sure as hell was not beaten fair and square, man to man.

Phoenix is on two feet now, is viagra best looking out. Perhaps he is surprised by what he hears. Perhaps he is too pissed off to notice. Maybe he just doesn’t care.

But the REBEL Pro crowd is on their feet, clapping and chanting “JAKE! JAKE! JAKE! JAKE!”

Standing ovation. The Murder City Devil looks out over the crowd, scowling. He grunts, and exits the ring, heading to the locker room. He stops before the
curtain and looks back once, then goes through the curtain.

want to win this amazing opening round match, they’ll have to be at the top of their game!
