The screen fades in on a clip from Violence X, we see Myke Adams now as he perches himself upon the top rope. In a grungy, faded filtered clip we see him spiral through the air wildly with a front 630 degree flip into his Swanton Bomb only to miss one, Kerry Windsor! As Windsor rolls aside and Adams crunches over the mat viciously, and with much velocity. Windsor rolls Adams for a pin as in a distorted slow mo voice we hear the crowd, and ref counting...
Adams then reverses the pin on Windsor as the slow motion clip stops and in the black screen we hear the crowd erupt into a hysteria as the referee shouts THREE and the bell sounds... As the bell sounds we fade into Violence XII
A bass line begins over the PA system as the lights dim within the arena, the crowd all standing from their seats with a massive ovation. Drums kick in over the bass, with then a couple of guitar strums joining in. A small shred on the guitar begins before lyrics.
"Enemies" by Shinedown continues to play over the system as videos of all Revival's talented roster continues to play over the tron screen. The camera cuts to the announce booth where Richie Trinks is wearing a horribly bright yellow tuxedo, complete with a bright yellow tie. Everybody's favorite emo-goth-punk chick, Maggie Mayhem, is dressed as usual, in her dark black punk garb with adorable little animal skulls.
Richie Trinks: HELLLLLLO REVIVAL NATION!
Maggie Mayhem: Welcome to another Violence on HBO! Tonight should be another chapter in Revival's explosive take to the scene in the pro wrestling World!
Trinks: We've got plenty of action on the slate, my only heart ache comes from knowing THE MAN isn't here tonight!
Mayhem: Kerry Windsor? Ofcourse. He has been saying all week about how Revival will see they need him more than he needs them. All due to the way the Sinister Superman captured the World championship...
Suddenly Mag and Richie are interrupted as Slipknot's "Duality" cues up over the P.A. and the arena dips to darkness.
The crowd screams towards the entrance way in jeers now, Corey Taylor's cryptic opening playing out. As the song picked up power, and rocks out hard the arena is near pitch black. In the flashing of a strobe like white and blue lights at the entrance way we can see fans rush to the safety barricade and wait as the lights begin to flicker in a strobe like state of multi-colors with the song's thumping opening. The lights continue to go "wild" as they flash erratically. The song picks up tempo as the 'rap' like lyrics of the first verse begin. With that the curtain draws back as "The Sinister Superman" Myke Adams comes walking out. Adams isn't wearing his usual face paint, tank top and so on. Instead he has a button up collared shirt, in a vibrant shade of blue and faded, worn out blue jeans. His shoulder length hair wet and messy as it hangs down around his neck and face. He has a slight beard growing on his face now as he scowls a bit and adjust the Revival World championship that can be seen draped over his left shoulder...
Adams' rolls his neck taking in the heated response from this crowd, he just stares out over them with disgust for a few moments. Myke shakes his head and starts to walk down the aisle way. The crowd not happy with the former "Indy hero" as he refuses to tag a single outstretched hand as he approaches ringside just in time for the chorus to cue up...
Myke tosses the World title up into the ring over the top rope and slides under the ropes, jumping to his feet as he grabs up his title and hoist it high with authority and glares over the crowd. Contempt etched over his face as he gazes the crowd, Myke then jumps in a single leap from the mat to the second turnbuckle of the nearest corner as the music continues playing loudly. Adams holds the World title high for the Revival Nation to see once more. He then jumps backward now and twist in mid-air, as he lands with great agility flush on both feet and walks across the ring as Slipknot starts to die off the P.A. The Sinister Superman demands a mic from ringside.
Trinks: Well speaking of him... and the World title... Here he is, Adams.
Mayhem: Yeah, kinda ironic in a way. I guess he has something to say...
Adams is given a mic, he runs his tongue over his lower lip and plays with the lip ring pierced upon it for a moment. Myke shakes his head as the crowd continues to jeer it up, stomping, clapping, chanting for his doom. He gives a disappointed, and disgruntled expression as he almost softly speaks into the mic... Barely audible over the crowd's booing.
Myke Adams: Hey... Just relax for a few minutes people...
This can barely be heard, Adams adjusting his championship slightly upon his shoulder as he sneers a bit. The booing seems to get a bit louder. Myke finally snarls almost as he growls like an animal into the microphone.
Myke Adams: JUST SHUT UP AND LISTEN!!!
This doesn't do him favors, the crowd still taunt away. Adams drops the title from his shoulder and drags it along his left side as he paces the ring for a moment before bringing the mic back up and simply getting to business regardless of the jeering.
Myke Adams: Fine, just fine. I can see why all of you would wanna treat your champion... Revival's champion, this way. I've done some pretty nasty things since coming to Chicago. But I am NO thief... I will NOT be part of this...
This seems to get some attention, the crowd actually dying down a bit. Almost as if the words finally hit them, everyone had to know what he was talking about... But Myke clarifies it immediately.
Myke Adams: I watched Violence X over, and over... And over again. I watched it like a million and two times this past week. That title match, the night I took Windsor's belt. The night Anti-Establishment put a so-called death blow on Revival... I watched it over again, so many times I'm surprised the DVD didn't burn up... And ya know what I saw?
The crowd screams, "WHAT?!" as Adams nods slightly, given an almost defeated glance out into the sea of fans. He shakes his head now and peers with his vibrant green eyes into the lens.
Myke Adams: I saw a screw job. I saw bullshit... I saw someone who broke their fuckin back for this place get ONE put over him. And I am not gonna stand for this... This is not the CHANGE I believe in. This isn't the way I believe in doing business in this ring.
The crowd actually 'pops' for these remarks, Adams gives an angry sneer now as he seems to grip the mic tighter, dropping the World title over the mat and stepping away from it nearer to the camera by the ropes. He glares into it and takes a few deep breaths before addressing the former champ.
Myke Adams: Kerry, I know you're not here tonight. And I know how you must feel... Regardless of where I stand, where you stand in this place. In Revival, we both know who built this... Who made this happen. We both know how much we've given, how many great contest we've competed in with talent all the way from top to bottom... And we both know the way the arena shook at Ascension... then Violence X. We both know the thrill that overtakes them when we do what we do... And we do it best.
Adams raises a brow and nods slightly.
Myke Adams: Don't we Ker? But I can't change this... As much as I've assisted Blaize in the quest to change Revival... I cannot change this. I tried to fix this I tried to make it right... They will not allow it...
Trinks: What is he talking about, 'they'?! This conspiracy thing is getting to the new Champion. He's cracking up.
Mayhem: I don't think so Richie, I think he seriously knows what we ALL saw. Everybody saw the match, everyone saw how the reversed pin fall went. Something is off...
Myke Adams: I demanded a one on one rematch, Ker.
The crowd explodes with a cheer here, Myke nods in approval of this and shakes his head however as he breaks more bad news.
Myke Adams: I was shot down Windsor, they told me there was no way, no how. I would be the champion until Glory. And I would then give you a rematch with Blaize and Hanson involved. They had no answers... They simply told me to do my job and stop asking questions...
Adams pauses and scowls now.
Myke Adams: But I am not going to let this go, I will NOT Kerry. We will find the answers. And I don't care who has a problem with it... Myke Adams is not a man who needs help winning championships. And I am not the type to do this... To do this to another great competitor...
Myke shakes his head, he glares out over the crowd and turns, picking up the World title and holding it out before himself. He gazes over it and sighs before he peers up and into the lens.
Myke Adams: They want this to be something special... And we gave them that Windsor, at Ascension we made this thing the shit. Didn't we? So the best I can do is go into Glory as the Champion, and fly around like a mad man... Defend this title's honor, defend myself and MY right as Champion against you... Against Aaron Blaize... and against Ben Hanson. Foes, friends, allies... I have none of these things. The only thing I can do is what I know best...
Myke drops the title over his shoulder and pauses for a long moment. He glances out over the crowd, who seem torn now, some jeer a bit. Some whistle and scream awaiting his next words. Adams finally breaks a small grin in the corner of his mouth as he real coy like finishes up.
Myke Adams: AND THRILL EM ALL!!!
And with that the crowd explodes in a thunderous response of screams, whistles, jeers, booing and even cheers. Slipknot cues back up as Adams drops the mic onto the canvas and steps through the ropes. He drapes the title backwards so it hangs down over his back as he clutches it with his left hand and starts up the aisle. Much to the fans there surprise, he actually 'tags' a hand here and there as he slowly walks towards the back.
Trinks: Ok, my brain hurts. Did I just hear this right... Does Tinkerbell actually agree with Kerry! Is Myke Adams on #TeamKerry?!
Mayhem: No. I wouldn't say that Rich, but it does seem that even our World champion agrees that Violence X was a night Revival may never forget. That finish for the title was shady at best!
Trinks: Isn't Adams worried about the backlash?! We all know who he rolls with and the things they've done. What will Blaize say about this?!
Mayhem: Knowing the Viper, we won't have a clue until he does.
Trinks: This just got interesting, I wonder what Mr. Valiant thinks about our own World champion trying to say someone conspired to make him just that!
Mayhem: I know one thing Richie, it takes one helluva self assured person to admit this. This was not the Myke Adams we've all come to know these past few months.
Trinks: Kerry should get the title back, period. Even Tinks said it was a faulty finish! Do the right thing!
Mayhem: Yeah but by rules, Adams did have a pin. And a referee counted that pin and declared a winner. So Adams IS the Champion, the rightful and one and only World champion of Revival.
Trinks: Bah...
Mayhem: We'll just have to all sit and watch as this all pans out, I'm not sure what to make of it... But we do have action on the way!
We are in the ring in which “The Knightmare” Tyler Knight is stood with microphone in hand. The crowd are hurling abuse at him and booing him as he has that trademark smirk of his on his face. Tyler is not dressed in his wrestling attire but in his black military style boots, skinny jeans tucked in to his boots and a Bullet For My Valentine band t-shirt.
Tyler Knight: “If you lot have finished with your vile mouths then I can actually begin with why I'm out here.”
The crowd boo louder and start shouting more abuse which begins to anger Tyler because he actually wants to say what he has to say.
Tyler Knight: “Shut the fuck up! I'm out here to deliver some important news. Something that is the start of something big for Revival. Something so big that it's even bigger then hearing about the Anti-Establishment every damn week. First of let me introduce you to someone who actually like myself is fed up with hearing about the same old people and shit week in, week out. A guy who like me knows what he wants and want let anyone stop him from getting it.”
At this point Tyler Knight points up the ramp waiting for who ever he is on about to come down to the ring. After a couple of seconds, "Rookie Of The Year" hits the pa system and Ethan Teller walks out onto the stage with the Revival Wrestling PRIMETIME Championship on his shoulder and a microphone in his hand. Smirking, he makes his way down to the ring to a chorus of boos. He hops up onto the apron and steps through the ropes, bumping fists with Knight before turning to face the crowd, raising the microphone to his mouth.
Ethan Teller: "Are you all deaf as WELL as retarded? When someone tells you to shut up, that's what you do!"
On cue, the crowd boo even louder, which irritates both Knight and Teller.
Ethan Teller: "Whatever...if we actually gave a fuck about what the peons thought about us, we wouldn't be out here right now! See, it's like my friend here said...tonight is the start of something few. Something HUGE. Tonight is the start of a team that isn't going to distinguish between Anti-Establishment OR The Resistance, because they will chop down whoever is put before them..."
Ethan nods his head as Tyler as he lowers the microphone and lets Tyler pick up from where he left off.
Tyler Knight: “That's right Teller, anyone stupid enough to get in our way will be demolished! From day one, when my buddy here walked in to Revival he has proved to everyone he has what it takes. We've both proved we have what it takes, but don't worry your little heads, you'll still see our match up later tonight; you see we're both big enough to realize that no matter what happens in that ring it stays in that ring between us. Ethan and me we aren't here to impress anyone or to suck up to you peasants. We are here to win Championships and look out for each other. You see when you're fucking SUPERSTARS like us, you get jealous people.”
Tyler walks over to the nearest turnbuckle, once there he jumps up on to it sitting down.
Tyler Knight: “You see my buddy here and me have had the idea of forming “The Fallen Angels” since day one. At first we were both worried about what would happen so we decided to think it over. Time for thinking is over, it's now time for doing and time for “The Fallen Angels” to kick ass.”
Lowering his microphone he stands on the turnbuckle arms wide smirking at the crowd who boo at him. He now sits down as he nods at Ethan Teller to continue on.
Ethan Teller: "I was told not to step on any toes when I first joined this company. People told me to watch my step, because getting in the way of either the Anti-Establishment or the Resistance was a bad idea; if I liked having all my teeth, I'd make sure I didn't get in the way because neither side would be held responsible for collateral damage blah blah blah! But you know, for as long as I can remember, I've had a problem with doing as I'm told and you know what? I couldn't give a rats ass about ANY of that bullshit!"
The crowd begin to boo Ethan and he clearly enjoys it! He smiles as he holds his free hand out to his side, wiggling his fingers to ask for more. He soaks up the boos for a few seconds before continuing.
Ethan Teller: "Oh, did I say something you didn't want to hear? Did I just piss all over what's probably the biggest war going on in this company right now? GOOD! You see, I didn't come here to make friends and be loved, I came here to make money and win championships...and it just so happens that that man right there feels exactly the same! So Revival Wrestling...this is a wake up call. There is more to this company that two sets of ass-clowns running around trying to one up one another. MUCH more. 'The Fallen Angels' are here Revival...don't say you weren't fucking warned!"
Teller tosses the microphone down onto the floor before walking over to the turnbuckle opposite the one Knight is stood on, mimicking his pose by throwing his arms out wide as "Dead Living" hits the speakers, drowning out the sound of boos as Teller and Knight soak them up in the ring.
Trinks: An impressive formation lining up to impose their own vision for REVIVAL's future here tonight...
Mayhem: A tandem of two men who will be facing each other tonight, one on one for the PRIMETIME Championship...
Trinks: Will their team survive tonight's encounter?
Mayhem: Are their egos too big? I'm not sure, but shit's gonna get real...
Stan Hopeforth: Ladies and gentlemen, our opening contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first from Detroit, Michigan...She is "NATURAL SUPERIORITY" CHELSEA PRYYYYYCCCCCCEEEEE!
The arena’s lights suddenly go out and the audience stands in anticipation. Chelsea Pryce’s voice softly echoes throughout for several seconds.
That’s when “In For The Kill” by La Roux plays from the PA system. At the fourteen second mark, a soft yet bright purple spotlight shines on the entrance stage and Chelsea steps out to spiritually embrace it. At this point, majority of the fans are cheering for her as she taps her foot and nods her head to the beat of the song. Suddenly, the spotlight itself flashes on and off to the beat. She smirks and strides down the ramp, reaching over on occasion to tag a few hands. She takes her time, careful not to miss a beat, and she offers a couple of poses for photographic moments. Near the end of the ramp, she pushes several strands of her blonde hair back with a hand before she pulls the purple fingerless glove down with her other hand.
Focused, Chelsea leaps onto the ring apron, looks around and absorbs the reaction of the crowd. This only lasts for a moment before she turns so her back is facing the ring and flips over, landing on her feet with the greatest of ease. She releases the top rope and swiftly moves to the middle of the ring, spinning slowly to get a better look at everyone in attendance. As a traditionalist, she clenches her right fist, holds it up above her head and allows purple pyro to shoot off thrice from the four corners of the ring.
Chelsea begins to relieve herself of her purple blazer and her black with a silver stripe fedora hat. Once they are set aside, she punches her right fist into the open palm of her left hand, ready to go.
Stan Hopeforth: And her opponent. Hailing from Possomgrape, Arkansas. He weighs in at 345lbs. FAGAN BALLLLLLLANTINNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!
"Ayla" by TJ Tiesto begins to play throughout the arena as the fans turn their attention to the aisle, Fagan, however, appears from the crowd and jumps over the guard rail before rolling into the ring. But he doesn't sneak attack Chelsea, instead opting to sit in the corner as he wipes the sweat from his brow. The referee calls for the bell; Ballentine uses the top ropes to lift himself back to a vertical base and this match is underway.
Mayhem: Fagan debuted a couple of weeks ago in an unsuccessful attempt to win the open invitational battle royal. Now he has his first proper match against one of the best female wrestlers around, Chelsea Pryce.
Trinks: Did he get tired out just getting to the ring?
Both competitors circle the ring momentarily, Fagan looking for a grapple as Chelsea tries to avoid one at all costs. The big man lunges forward, but Pryce side steps and catches him around the back of the knee with a low kick. A second one lands, sending Fagan down to one knee. Chelsea goes against the ropes for momentum, coming back with a running dropkick to the jaw, which knocks Fagan down onto his back. He uses the ropes to get back to his feet, all the while Chelsea is raining down rights and lefts and boots aplenty. Until she's pushed away, anyway. Fagan manages to stand up as Pryce performs a backwards roll, popping back up onto her feet as she charges in with a basement dropkick, taking Fagan's knee out from under him.
Trinks: Its a less than ospicious start from Fagan Ballentine here in the early going, Magz.
Indeed it is as Chelsea seizes the opportunity to grab up her opponent's leg while he's down on the mat and drop an elbow down across the knee. And again. And a third time. She tries for a fourth, but Fagan kicks her away with his good leg. Pryce lands back first against the mat this time as Fagan drags himself towards the ropes, using them to pull himself back to a vertical base. Both competitors reach their feet at the same time as Ballentine, hobbling slightly, connects with a clothesline flush across the chest of Chelsea Pryce! She gets right back up as Fagan grabs her by the wrist and whips her against the ropes. Pryce bounces off them, coming back with a baseball slide to counter the slam Ballentine was about to attempt. She delivers a chop block to the knee, dropping the big man to a kneeling position before she sets off against the ropes. However, Fagan is ready for her and counters with a flapjack, sending Chelsea high into the air before she drops face first to the mat below!
Mayhem: Did you see the elevation there?
Trinks: She nearly got stuck in the rafters!
An early pin attempt by Fagan Ballentine garners him a one count before Chelsea can get the shoulder up. He looks a tad upset, but Fagan drags his opponent back to her feet and promptly body slams her and drops an elbow down across her chest. Another pin attempt and another two count later and Fagan looks more than a tad upset this time. Again, he stands up and lifts Chelsea back to a vertical base via a handful of hair. An Irish whip sends Pryce running towards the corner as Ballentine hobbles after her, putting all his weight behind the avalanche attack!
Trinks: That's a lot of weight put behind that splash; will we have to peel Chelsea Pryce off the turnbuckle pads after that one?
Ballentine doesn't let her fall to the canvas, though, instead he props her up in the corner and glares into her eyes. Fagan begins to babble something to himself as Chelsea tries to get away, but she's no contest in the strength department here. Ballentine pushes her back into the corner and lifts a knee up into the midsection, followed by a back elbow to the face before he switches to body shots: rights and lefts working over the torso of Chelsea Pryce.
Mayhem: What on Earth has come over Fagan Ballentine?
Trinks: I don't know, he looks like he's lost it...
The big man steps backwards, a look of horror on his face as he clutches at his hair as he hobbles over into the far corner and crouches down. The scared look remains etched on his face as he mumbles something to himself once again. The cameras pick up a barely audible list of girls names as Fagan remains in that position for going on thirty seconds. Only as Chelsea gets back to her feet does he begin to move once again. Clearly groggy, Chelsea Pryce staggers out of the corner as Fagan meets her in the center of the ring, doubling her over with a knee lift. He hooks his arms around her waist and goes to lift her up for a powerbomb, but Pryce throws a punch across his forehead. And another as it turns into a flurry. HURRICANRANA! Out of nowhere, Chelsea manages to reverse the move and sends the big man tumbling across the ring with a hurricanrana.
Ballentine stands back up as Pryce grabs him around the back of the head and drives several forearm shots into the face of her opponent. A martial arts style kick to the midsection before she goes low again, kicking at the knee of the big man. This second wind continues as Chelsea, with her opponent momentarily grounded, climbs out through the ropes and springboards back into the ring with a high impact bulldog. She takes her time rolling the big man over as Chelsea goes for a cover.
One...
Two...
Chelsea gets thrown--literally thrown--across the ring as Ballentine powers out of the pin attempt. She's the first to her feet though, catching the rising Fagan Ballentine with a standing enziguiri to the back of the head, dazing him. A rude member of the audience shouts "timber!!" as Ballentine falls backwards, crashing to the mat as Chelsea uses the nearby ropes to pull herself back to a vertical base. She staggers over to where her downed opponent is laid out on the mat and grabs his injured leg, circling around but Fagan kicks her away before she apply the submission hold.
Mayhem: Ballentine may have just saved himself from a painful submission hold there, Richie.
Trinks: He certainly dug deep, now this is anybody's match.
Ballentine drags himself back to a vertical base as Chelsea is back on her feet as well. She charges in, ducking the clothesline attempt before bouncing off the ropes--but Fagan scoops her up for a spinning side slam! He stands back up instead of going for the cover as Chelsea Pryce lays on the mat clutching at her ribs. The big man takes a few steps run up and squashes his opponent with a splash!
One...
Two...
But Chelsea gets the shoulder up! Fagan has that look about him as he irately drags Chelsea back to a vertical base. Pryce, on her third wind, pushes away Fagan's hands as she lands several right hands to the face. The big man is dazed as Pryce rears back for a roundhouse kick--NO! Ballentine somehow dodges it - the momentum causing Chelsea to have her back turned - Fagan grabs her under her left arm and around her neck--BALLENTINE BOMB!
Trinks: Did he just get some boob?
Fagan rolls on top of Chelsea, no need to hook the leg.
One...
Two...
THREE!!!
Stan Hopeforth: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner... FAGAN BALLENTINE!!
Trinks: The Janitor cleans up the mess...
Mayhem: That was a mildly impressive play on words, Richie.
ONE!
TWO!!
TWO!!
Adams then reverses the pin on Windsor as the slow motion clip stops and in the black screen we hear the crowd erupt into a hysteria as the referee shouts THREE and the bell sounds... As the bell sounds we fade into Violence XII
A bass line begins over the PA system as the lights dim within the arena, the crowd all standing from their seats with a massive ovation. Drums kick in over the bass, with then a couple of guitar strums joining in. A small shred on the guitar begins before lyrics.
Listen up, there's not a moment to spare, it's quite a drop from the top so how're you feeling down there?
It's quite a cold, cruel, harsh reality, caught stuck with your enemies.
It's quite a cold, cruel, harsh reality, caught stuck with your enemies.
"Enemies" by Shinedown continues to play over the system as videos of all Revival's talented roster continues to play over the tron screen. The camera cuts to the announce booth where Richie Trinks is wearing a horribly bright yellow tuxedo, complete with a bright yellow tie. Everybody's favorite emo-goth-punk chick, Maggie Mayhem, is dressed as usual, in her dark black punk garb with adorable little animal skulls.
Richie Trinks: HELLLLLLO REVIVAL NATION!
Maggie Mayhem: Welcome to another Violence on HBO! Tonight should be another chapter in Revival's explosive take to the scene in the pro wrestling World!
Trinks: We've got plenty of action on the slate, my only heart ache comes from knowing THE MAN isn't here tonight!
Mayhem: Kerry Windsor? Ofcourse. He has been saying all week about how Revival will see they need him more than he needs them. All due to the way the Sinister Superman captured the World championship...
Suddenly Mag and Richie are interrupted as Slipknot's "Duality" cues up over the P.A. and the arena dips to darkness.
"I push my fingers into my eyes...
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
But it's made of all the things I have to take...
Jesus, it never ends; it works its way inside...
If the pain goes on...."
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...

The crowd screams towards the entrance way in jeers now, Corey Taylor's cryptic opening playing out. As the song picked up power, and rocks out hard the arena is near pitch black. In the flashing of a strobe like white and blue lights at the entrance way we can see fans rush to the safety barricade and wait as the lights begin to flicker in a strobe like state of multi-colors with the song's thumping opening. The lights continue to go "wild" as they flash erratically. The song picks up tempo as the 'rap' like lyrics of the first verse begin. With that the curtain draws back as "The Sinister Superman" Myke Adams comes walking out. Adams isn't wearing his usual face paint, tank top and so on. Instead he has a button up collared shirt, in a vibrant shade of blue and faded, worn out blue jeans. His shoulder length hair wet and messy as it hangs down around his neck and face. He has a slight beard growing on his face now as he scowls a bit and adjust the Revival World championship that can be seen draped over his left shoulder...
"I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I waited as my time's elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much fate
I've wished for this; I've bitched at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create
Now, I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I'll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
You're left with me, 'cause you left me no choice..."
I waited as my time's elapsed

Adams' rolls his neck taking in the heated response from this crowd, he just stares out over them with disgust for a few moments. Myke shakes his head and starts to walk down the aisle way. The crowd not happy with the former "Indy hero" as he refuses to tag a single outstretched hand as he approaches ringside just in time for the chorus to cue up...
"I push my fingers into my eyes...
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
If the pain goes on, I'M NOT GONNA MAKE IT!!!"
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
If the pain goes on, I'M NOT GONNA MAKE IT!!!"
Myke tosses the World title up into the ring over the top rope and slides under the ropes, jumping to his feet as he grabs up his title and hoist it high with authority and glares over the crowd. Contempt etched over his face as he gazes the crowd, Myke then jumps in a single leap from the mat to the second turnbuckle of the nearest corner as the music continues playing loudly. Adams holds the World title high for the Revival Nation to see once more. He then jumps backward now and twist in mid-air, as he lands with great agility flush on both feet and walks across the ring as Slipknot starts to die off the P.A. The Sinister Superman demands a mic from ringside.
Trinks: Well speaking of him... and the World title... Here he is, Adams.
Mayhem: Yeah, kinda ironic in a way. I guess he has something to say...
Adams is given a mic, he runs his tongue over his lower lip and plays with the lip ring pierced upon it for a moment. Myke shakes his head as the crowd continues to jeer it up, stomping, clapping, chanting for his doom. He gives a disappointed, and disgruntled expression as he almost softly speaks into the mic... Barely audible over the crowd's booing.
Myke Adams: Hey... Just relax for a few minutes people...
This can barely be heard, Adams adjusting his championship slightly upon his shoulder as he sneers a bit. The booing seems to get a bit louder. Myke finally snarls almost as he growls like an animal into the microphone.
Myke Adams: JUST SHUT UP AND LISTEN!!!
This doesn't do him favors, the crowd still taunt away. Adams drops the title from his shoulder and drags it along his left side as he paces the ring for a moment before bringing the mic back up and simply getting to business regardless of the jeering.
Myke Adams: Fine, just fine. I can see why all of you would wanna treat your champion... Revival's champion, this way. I've done some pretty nasty things since coming to Chicago. But I am NO thief... I will NOT be part of this...
This seems to get some attention, the crowd actually dying down a bit. Almost as if the words finally hit them, everyone had to know what he was talking about... But Myke clarifies it immediately.
Myke Adams: I watched Violence X over, and over... And over again. I watched it like a million and two times this past week. That title match, the night I took Windsor's belt. The night Anti-Establishment put a so-called death blow on Revival... I watched it over again, so many times I'm surprised the DVD didn't burn up... And ya know what I saw?
The crowd screams, "WHAT?!" as Adams nods slightly, given an almost defeated glance out into the sea of fans. He shakes his head now and peers with his vibrant green eyes into the lens.
Myke Adams: I saw a screw job. I saw bullshit... I saw someone who broke their fuckin back for this place get ONE put over him. And I am not gonna stand for this... This is not the CHANGE I believe in. This isn't the way I believe in doing business in this ring.
The crowd actually 'pops' for these remarks, Adams gives an angry sneer now as he seems to grip the mic tighter, dropping the World title over the mat and stepping away from it nearer to the camera by the ropes. He glares into it and takes a few deep breaths before addressing the former champ.
Myke Adams: Kerry, I know you're not here tonight. And I know how you must feel... Regardless of where I stand, where you stand in this place. In Revival, we both know who built this... Who made this happen. We both know how much we've given, how many great contest we've competed in with talent all the way from top to bottom... And we both know the way the arena shook at Ascension... then Violence X. We both know the thrill that overtakes them when we do what we do... And we do it best.
Adams raises a brow and nods slightly.
Myke Adams: Don't we Ker? But I can't change this... As much as I've assisted Blaize in the quest to change Revival... I cannot change this. I tried to fix this I tried to make it right... They will not allow it...
Trinks: What is he talking about, 'they'?! This conspiracy thing is getting to the new Champion. He's cracking up.
Mayhem: I don't think so Richie, I think he seriously knows what we ALL saw. Everybody saw the match, everyone saw how the reversed pin fall went. Something is off...
Myke Adams: I demanded a one on one rematch, Ker.
The crowd explodes with a cheer here, Myke nods in approval of this and shakes his head however as he breaks more bad news.
Myke Adams: I was shot down Windsor, they told me there was no way, no how. I would be the champion until Glory. And I would then give you a rematch with Blaize and Hanson involved. They had no answers... They simply told me to do my job and stop asking questions...
Adams pauses and scowls now.
Myke Adams: But I am not going to let this go, I will NOT Kerry. We will find the answers. And I don't care who has a problem with it... Myke Adams is not a man who needs help winning championships. And I am not the type to do this... To do this to another great competitor...
Myke shakes his head, he glares out over the crowd and turns, picking up the World title and holding it out before himself. He gazes over it and sighs before he peers up and into the lens.
Myke Adams: They want this to be something special... And we gave them that Windsor, at Ascension we made this thing the shit. Didn't we? So the best I can do is go into Glory as the Champion, and fly around like a mad man... Defend this title's honor, defend myself and MY right as Champion against you... Against Aaron Blaize... and against Ben Hanson. Foes, friends, allies... I have none of these things. The only thing I can do is what I know best...
Myke drops the title over his shoulder and pauses for a long moment. He glances out over the crowd, who seem torn now, some jeer a bit. Some whistle and scream awaiting his next words. Adams finally breaks a small grin in the corner of his mouth as he real coy like finishes up.
Myke Adams: AND THRILL EM ALL!!!
And with that the crowd explodes in a thunderous response of screams, whistles, jeers, booing and even cheers. Slipknot cues back up as Adams drops the mic onto the canvas and steps through the ropes. He drapes the title backwards so it hangs down over his back as he clutches it with his left hand and starts up the aisle. Much to the fans there surprise, he actually 'tags' a hand here and there as he slowly walks towards the back.
Trinks: Ok, my brain hurts. Did I just hear this right... Does Tinkerbell actually agree with Kerry! Is Myke Adams on #TeamKerry?!
Mayhem: No. I wouldn't say that Rich, but it does seem that even our World champion agrees that Violence X was a night Revival may never forget. That finish for the title was shady at best!
Trinks: Isn't Adams worried about the backlash?! We all know who he rolls with and the things they've done. What will Blaize say about this?!
Mayhem: Knowing the Viper, we won't have a clue until he does.
Trinks: This just got interesting, I wonder what Mr. Valiant thinks about our own World champion trying to say someone conspired to make him just that!
Mayhem: I know one thing Richie, it takes one helluva self assured person to admit this. This was not the Myke Adams we've all come to know these past few months.
Trinks: Kerry should get the title back, period. Even Tinks said it was a faulty finish! Do the right thing!
Mayhem: Yeah but by rules, Adams did have a pin. And a referee counted that pin and declared a winner. So Adams IS the Champion, the rightful and one and only World champion of Revival.
Trinks: Bah...
Mayhem: We'll just have to all sit and watch as this all pans out, I'm not sure what to make of it... But we do have action on the way!
We are in the ring in which “The Knightmare” Tyler Knight is stood with microphone in hand. The crowd are hurling abuse at him and booing him as he has that trademark smirk of his on his face. Tyler is not dressed in his wrestling attire but in his black military style boots, skinny jeans tucked in to his boots and a Bullet For My Valentine band t-shirt.
Tyler Knight: “If you lot have finished with your vile mouths then I can actually begin with why I'm out here.”
The crowd boo louder and start shouting more abuse which begins to anger Tyler because he actually wants to say what he has to say.
Tyler Knight: “Shut the fuck up! I'm out here to deliver some important news. Something that is the start of something big for Revival. Something so big that it's even bigger then hearing about the Anti-Establishment every damn week. First of let me introduce you to someone who actually like myself is fed up with hearing about the same old people and shit week in, week out. A guy who like me knows what he wants and want let anyone stop him from getting it.”
At this point Tyler Knight points up the ramp waiting for who ever he is on about to come down to the ring. After a couple of seconds, "Rookie Of The Year" hits the pa system and Ethan Teller walks out onto the stage with the Revival Wrestling PRIMETIME Championship on his shoulder and a microphone in his hand. Smirking, he makes his way down to the ring to a chorus of boos. He hops up onto the apron and steps through the ropes, bumping fists with Knight before turning to face the crowd, raising the microphone to his mouth.
Ethan Teller: "Are you all deaf as WELL as retarded? When someone tells you to shut up, that's what you do!"
On cue, the crowd boo even louder, which irritates both Knight and Teller.
Ethan Teller: "Whatever...if we actually gave a fuck about what the peons thought about us, we wouldn't be out here right now! See, it's like my friend here said...tonight is the start of something few. Something HUGE. Tonight is the start of a team that isn't going to distinguish between Anti-Establishment OR The Resistance, because they will chop down whoever is put before them..."
Ethan nods his head as Tyler as he lowers the microphone and lets Tyler pick up from where he left off.
Tyler Knight: “That's right Teller, anyone stupid enough to get in our way will be demolished! From day one, when my buddy here walked in to Revival he has proved to everyone he has what it takes. We've both proved we have what it takes, but don't worry your little heads, you'll still see our match up later tonight; you see we're both big enough to realize that no matter what happens in that ring it stays in that ring between us. Ethan and me we aren't here to impress anyone or to suck up to you peasants. We are here to win Championships and look out for each other. You see when you're fucking SUPERSTARS like us, you get jealous people.”
Tyler walks over to the nearest turnbuckle, once there he jumps up on to it sitting down.
Tyler Knight: “You see my buddy here and me have had the idea of forming “The Fallen Angels” since day one. At first we were both worried about what would happen so we decided to think it over. Time for thinking is over, it's now time for doing and time for “The Fallen Angels” to kick ass.”
Lowering his microphone he stands on the turnbuckle arms wide smirking at the crowd who boo at him. He now sits down as he nods at Ethan Teller to continue on.
Ethan Teller: "I was told not to step on any toes when I first joined this company. People told me to watch my step, because getting in the way of either the Anti-Establishment or the Resistance was a bad idea; if I liked having all my teeth, I'd make sure I didn't get in the way because neither side would be held responsible for collateral damage blah blah blah! But you know, for as long as I can remember, I've had a problem with doing as I'm told and you know what? I couldn't give a rats ass about ANY of that bullshit!"
The crowd begin to boo Ethan and he clearly enjoys it! He smiles as he holds his free hand out to his side, wiggling his fingers to ask for more. He soaks up the boos for a few seconds before continuing.
Ethan Teller: "Oh, did I say something you didn't want to hear? Did I just piss all over what's probably the biggest war going on in this company right now? GOOD! You see, I didn't come here to make friends and be loved, I came here to make money and win championships...and it just so happens that that man right there feels exactly the same! So Revival Wrestling...this is a wake up call. There is more to this company that two sets of ass-clowns running around trying to one up one another. MUCH more. 'The Fallen Angels' are here Revival...don't say you weren't fucking warned!"
Teller tosses the microphone down onto the floor before walking over to the turnbuckle opposite the one Knight is stood on, mimicking his pose by throwing his arms out wide as "Dead Living" hits the speakers, drowning out the sound of boos as Teller and Knight soak them up in the ring.
Trinks: An impressive formation lining up to impose their own vision for REVIVAL's future here tonight...
Mayhem: A tandem of two men who will be facing each other tonight, one on one for the PRIMETIME Championship...
Trinks: Will their team survive tonight's encounter?
Mayhem: Are their egos too big? I'm not sure, but shit's gonna get real...
Stan Hopeforth: Ladies and gentlemen, our opening contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first from Detroit, Michigan...She is "NATURAL SUPERIORITY" CHELSEA PRYYYYYCCCCCCEEEEE!
The arena’s lights suddenly go out and the audience stands in anticipation. Chelsea Pryce’s voice softly echoes throughout for several seconds.
“Nature... Superiority... They both exist in me...”
That’s when “In For The Kill” by La Roux plays from the PA system. At the fourteen second mark, a soft yet bright purple spotlight shines on the entrance stage and Chelsea steps out to spiritually embrace it. At this point, majority of the fans are cheering for her as she taps her foot and nods her head to the beat of the song. Suddenly, the spotlight itself flashes on and off to the beat. She smirks and strides down the ramp, reaching over on occasion to tag a few hands. She takes her time, careful not to miss a beat, and she offers a couple of poses for photographic moments. Near the end of the ramp, she pushes several strands of her blonde hair back with a hand before she pulls the purple fingerless glove down with her other hand.
Focused, Chelsea leaps onto the ring apron, looks around and absorbs the reaction of the crowd. This only lasts for a moment before she turns so her back is facing the ring and flips over, landing on her feet with the greatest of ease. She releases the top rope and swiftly moves to the middle of the ring, spinning slowly to get a better look at everyone in attendance. As a traditionalist, she clenches her right fist, holds it up above her head and allows purple pyro to shoot off thrice from the four corners of the ring.
“I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand...
I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
(Oh) I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand!”
I’m doing it for a thrill
I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand...
I’m going in for the kill
I’m doing it for a thrill
(Oh) I’m hoping you’ll understand
And not let go of my hand!”
Chelsea begins to relieve herself of her purple blazer and her black with a silver stripe fedora hat. Once they are set aside, she punches her right fist into the open palm of her left hand, ready to go.
Stan Hopeforth: And her opponent. Hailing from Possomgrape, Arkansas. He weighs in at 345lbs. FAGAN BALLLLLLLANTINNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!
"Ayla" by TJ Tiesto begins to play throughout the arena as the fans turn their attention to the aisle, Fagan, however, appears from the crowd and jumps over the guard rail before rolling into the ring. But he doesn't sneak attack Chelsea, instead opting to sit in the corner as he wipes the sweat from his brow. The referee calls for the bell; Ballentine uses the top ropes to lift himself back to a vertical base and this match is underway.
Mayhem: Fagan debuted a couple of weeks ago in an unsuccessful attempt to win the open invitational battle royal. Now he has his first proper match against one of the best female wrestlers around, Chelsea Pryce.
Trinks: Did he get tired out just getting to the ring?
Both competitors circle the ring momentarily, Fagan looking for a grapple as Chelsea tries to avoid one at all costs. The big man lunges forward, but Pryce side steps and catches him around the back of the knee with a low kick. A second one lands, sending Fagan down to one knee. Chelsea goes against the ropes for momentum, coming back with a running dropkick to the jaw, which knocks Fagan down onto his back. He uses the ropes to get back to his feet, all the while Chelsea is raining down rights and lefts and boots aplenty. Until she's pushed away, anyway. Fagan manages to stand up as Pryce performs a backwards roll, popping back up onto her feet as she charges in with a basement dropkick, taking Fagan's knee out from under him.
Trinks: Its a less than ospicious start from Fagan Ballentine here in the early going, Magz.
Indeed it is as Chelsea seizes the opportunity to grab up her opponent's leg while he's down on the mat and drop an elbow down across the knee. And again. And a third time. She tries for a fourth, but Fagan kicks her away with his good leg. Pryce lands back first against the mat this time as Fagan drags himself towards the ropes, using them to pull himself back to a vertical base. Both competitors reach their feet at the same time as Ballentine, hobbling slightly, connects with a clothesline flush across the chest of Chelsea Pryce! She gets right back up as Fagan grabs her by the wrist and whips her against the ropes. Pryce bounces off them, coming back with a baseball slide to counter the slam Ballentine was about to attempt. She delivers a chop block to the knee, dropping the big man to a kneeling position before she sets off against the ropes. However, Fagan is ready for her and counters with a flapjack, sending Chelsea high into the air before she drops face first to the mat below!
Mayhem: Did you see the elevation there?
Trinks: She nearly got stuck in the rafters!
An early pin attempt by Fagan Ballentine garners him a one count before Chelsea can get the shoulder up. He looks a tad upset, but Fagan drags his opponent back to her feet and promptly body slams her and drops an elbow down across her chest. Another pin attempt and another two count later and Fagan looks more than a tad upset this time. Again, he stands up and lifts Chelsea back to a vertical base via a handful of hair. An Irish whip sends Pryce running towards the corner as Ballentine hobbles after her, putting all his weight behind the avalanche attack!
Trinks: That's a lot of weight put behind that splash; will we have to peel Chelsea Pryce off the turnbuckle pads after that one?
Ballentine doesn't let her fall to the canvas, though, instead he props her up in the corner and glares into her eyes. Fagan begins to babble something to himself as Chelsea tries to get away, but she's no contest in the strength department here. Ballentine pushes her back into the corner and lifts a knee up into the midsection, followed by a back elbow to the face before he switches to body shots: rights and lefts working over the torso of Chelsea Pryce.
Mayhem: What on Earth has come over Fagan Ballentine?
Trinks: I don't know, he looks like he's lost it...
The big man steps backwards, a look of horror on his face as he clutches at his hair as he hobbles over into the far corner and crouches down. The scared look remains etched on his face as he mumbles something to himself once again. The cameras pick up a barely audible list of girls names as Fagan remains in that position for going on thirty seconds. Only as Chelsea gets back to her feet does he begin to move once again. Clearly groggy, Chelsea Pryce staggers out of the corner as Fagan meets her in the center of the ring, doubling her over with a knee lift. He hooks his arms around her waist and goes to lift her up for a powerbomb, but Pryce throws a punch across his forehead. And another as it turns into a flurry. HURRICANRANA! Out of nowhere, Chelsea manages to reverse the move and sends the big man tumbling across the ring with a hurricanrana.
Ballentine stands back up as Pryce grabs him around the back of the head and drives several forearm shots into the face of her opponent. A martial arts style kick to the midsection before she goes low again, kicking at the knee of the big man. This second wind continues as Chelsea, with her opponent momentarily grounded, climbs out through the ropes and springboards back into the ring with a high impact bulldog. She takes her time rolling the big man over as Chelsea goes for a cover.
One...
Two...
Chelsea gets thrown--literally thrown--across the ring as Ballentine powers out of the pin attempt. She's the first to her feet though, catching the rising Fagan Ballentine with a standing enziguiri to the back of the head, dazing him. A rude member of the audience shouts "timber!!" as Ballentine falls backwards, crashing to the mat as Chelsea uses the nearby ropes to pull herself back to a vertical base. She staggers over to where her downed opponent is laid out on the mat and grabs his injured leg, circling around but Fagan kicks her away before she apply the submission hold.
Mayhem: Ballentine may have just saved himself from a painful submission hold there, Richie.
Trinks: He certainly dug deep, now this is anybody's match.
Ballentine drags himself back to a vertical base as Chelsea is back on her feet as well. She charges in, ducking the clothesline attempt before bouncing off the ropes--but Fagan scoops her up for a spinning side slam! He stands back up instead of going for the cover as Chelsea Pryce lays on the mat clutching at her ribs. The big man takes a few steps run up and squashes his opponent with a splash!
One...
Two...
But Chelsea gets the shoulder up! Fagan has that look about him as he irately drags Chelsea back to a vertical base. Pryce, on her third wind, pushes away Fagan's hands as she lands several right hands to the face. The big man is dazed as Pryce rears back for a roundhouse kick--NO! Ballentine somehow dodges it - the momentum causing Chelsea to have her back turned - Fagan grabs her under her left arm and around her neck--BALLENTINE BOMB!
Trinks: Did he just get some boob?
Fagan rolls on top of Chelsea, no need to hook the leg.
One...
Two...
THREE!!!
Stan Hopeforth: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner... FAGAN BALLENTINE!!
Trinks: The Janitor cleans up the mess...
Mayhem: That was a mildly impressive play on words, Richie.
