No Fear

[jtn]

"Out of My Way" by Seether starts to play as scenes from the last few weeks are shown on the screen. The buildup between Maverick and Eagles. Coughlin's return and rise to the Valor Championship. Flap's attack on Eagles and Ci's teamup with Lestat. Inferno beating the "Unstoppable" Dan Harvey. The images cut as the music picks up and the camera cuts to the arena as a few explosions go off. The cameras pan the building then focus on Almanti and Pilgrim.

Almanti: We have reached No Fear!
Pilgrim: Tonight we have two huge title matches. One a never before seen match in a 2 out of 3 falls ladder match.
Almanti: This is sure going to be one hell of a show.
Pilgrim: We start it right now!

The lights dim down as the crowd get jittery, suddenly, the old classic “Push It” by Salt ‘N’ Pepa blares out the PA system, out storms Spike Lambert trying to rally the crowd by pushing his arms up to get them to cheer but the crowd boo except for those who share his views.

He pegs it down the apron to try and get the adrenaline going, he speeds up and looks to sprint into the ring but stops just short of the outer-ring protection mat. He performs the Argent Cut-Throat Sign, riling the crowd before hopping onto the apron and climbing in, he performs a regular cut-throat sign and throws a thumbs down at the crowd/his opponent.

Then "Into The Night" begins to play around the Arena speakers. The lights get a little brighter as Mark steps put from the back and walks onto the ramp. He smiles as he waves to the POW fans. Then without hesistating he jogs to the ring and slides in. He walks into the middle of the ring and smiles as he does his Moltres Pose.

Omega Storm is backstage arguing with JTN in his office.

Storm: I don't deserve this. I deserve to be in the TV championship chase. Inoki and Fly haven't done anything. I want a title shot!

Jay: Well those two are in position to get a title shot. You have a match of your own to worry about. So why don't you focus on that?

Storm: What if something happens to them? Then can I have a shot?

Jay: In the most unlikely event both of them cannot get the title shot....fine. You can have one.

Storm: Good, that's all I need to hear.

Omega leaves the room as JTN shakes his head and focuses on some papers on his desk.

[jtn]

Pilgrim: Up next we will see Will Fly and Kenji Inoki facing off to determine a new number one contender to the Television Championship.

Huff stands in the ring waiting for the entrances as the camera cuts to the back to see Kenji Inoki laying on the ground with a bent pipe laying next to his head.

Pilgrim: What happened there?!
Almanti: Someone did a number on him.

There is a loud crack heard off camera then the body of Wil Fly falls next to Inoki. A chair is dropped next to the body of Fly as the camera pans up to see Omega Storm standing dusting his hands off.

Almanti: Well JTN did say he'd get a shot if both men couldn't continue.
Pilgrim: That's not the way to get title shots.
Almanti: Well he may have just proven you wrong.
Pilgrim: Looks like we won't be seeing Fly vs Inoki.

Omega walks off as the camera focuses on all the carnage.

[jtn]

The arena lights go black...a lone spotlight shines on the entrance way as Get Psycho by Disturbed blasts from the speakers. Sycho slowly walks down to the ring, never taking his eyes off his opponent (assuming his opponent has entered first). He reaches the ring and grabs the top rope and pulls himself to the ring apron. He steps over the top rope and walks over to a corner.

Huff: In the ring now, the challenger....Sycho!

"Metal Meltdown" by Judas Priest hits as Zeke Inferno steps onto the apron. The POW Television championship is around his waist. Inferno walks towards the ring.

Huff: On his way to the ring he is the POW Television Champion...Zeke Inferno!

Inferno gets to the ring and takes his title off. He stares at it before handing it off. The ref raises it in the air then calls for the bell.

Lestat & Mr Showtime vs. Lucha Wecha & Omega Storm

The cameras pan in and all four men stand in the ring. Lestat and Showtime look toward each other and Mr. Showtime steps out to the corner. Omega Storm and Lucha Wecha look toward each other. Omega acts as if he is going to let Lucha open, but he stops and smiles as he hits Lucha with a Rippling Effects. Lucha falls to the mat and Omega storm rolls out of the ring making his way toward the back.

Pilgrim: What just happened?
Almanti: Omega didn't want to be here to begin with.

Showtime and Lestat look to each other. Mr. Showtime reenters the ring. They both walk over to Lucha and help him up after the Super Kick he just felt from Omega Storm. They both smile and walk back to their corners. They play rock paper scissors. Showtime comes up Scissors, and Lestat comes up rock. Showtime nods and rolls out of the ring having a seat.

Almanti: Looks like they are going to try to make this a fair match since Omega just left his partner alone.
Pilgrim: Oh that's reassuring.

Lestat quickly makes his way for Lucha and hits him with a dropkick quickly sending Lucha back down to the mat. Not losing any momentum Lestat hits Luch with a few leg drops. He stands back to his feet and reaches down pulling Lucha back to his feet once more. This time Lestat grabs him and suplexs him back to the matt. With a smile Lestat once more picks him up and watches him wobble back and forth. Lestat quickly hits the Wings of an Angel (Vertabreaker) on him sending him back to the mat once again. He quickly covers as the ref counts.

We return to the arena and “One Day Remains” by Alter Bridge begins to play. Dan Savage steps out from behind the curtain. He heads down the ramp and slaps fans with fans on some occasions, and other times completely ignores them.

Richard Huff: Ladies and gentlemen the following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is “The Battle of The Dan's”. Introducing first; Dan number one. From Jacksonville, Florida, weighing in at 241lbs… this is Dan Savage!!

As he climbs into the ring he does his hand gesture. Savage paces around the ring then gets on one of the lower ropes and poses again.

Huff: And his opponent…

The arena is quiet; drawing out the tension in the audience before "Trailblazers" erupts through the speakers. The fans go wild as the sound of the guitar fills the arena.

Huff: From Houston, Texas; weighing in at two hundred fifty pounds; he is the Unstoppable Dan Harvey!

Finally, Dan Harvey walks through the curtain and slowly walks to the ring. Once inside he climbs the nearest turnbuckle and raises his hands for the crowd, shouting loudly "Do or die!” He then leans against the ropes and prepares for the match.

Battle of the Dan's: Dab Harvey vs. Dan Savage

With the two men in the ring they lock up. Harvey applies a side headlock and takes Savage over with a headlock take down. He keeps him grounded on the floor with the headlock. After a few seconds, Savage repositions his weight to force Harvey’s shoulders to the floor. The referee counts.

Almanti: Close call… Harvey’s tactics nearly worked against him there.

Harvey begins to stand up and Savage fires shots to his abdomen. Savage backs Harvey into the ropes and shoots him off to the other side of the ring. Upon returning Harvey catches Savage with a shoulder block. Harvey covers quickly and covers his man.

Savage kicks out and is quickly to his feet only to be caught by an Arm drag. He recovers but is caught again with a second. Once again he stands up and is caught with an arm drag. This time Harvey holds on to the arm with an arm lock, applying pressure to the shoulder.

Pilgrim: Harvey in definite control here.

Savage slowly begins to fight to his feet until both men are at a standing position. He reaches for the ropes, but as the referee goes to check on how far away from the ropes Harvey takes a handful of Savage’s hair and yanks him back down to the mat.

Pilgrim: Shady tactics by the former Television champion but the referee never saw it.

Almanti: And, not to be cliché Alex, but it’s not cheating if you don’t get caught

Once again, after a few minutes of having his arm wrenched by Harvey, Savage begins to fight up. He gets to his feet and begins to fire some shots to his opponents head, causing Harvey to loosen his grip. He continues to fire rights and lefts to Harvey’s face, getting angrier as he does so. Rage and Aggression overcoming him, he fires shots at Harvey who can do nothing to cover up. He hammers him into the corner, reigning punches down on him, shot after shot. He drives him down into the corner. He now begins to kick him and stomp him in the corner with as much ferocity as before.

Pilgrim: Savage not letting up here Tony. He has to be careful not to get himself disqualified.

The referee steps in to stop Savage and manages to pull him away. Savage goes back on the attack but is caught with a kick to the abdomen. Harvey fires shots at Savage now and Irish whips him into the ropes. Savage reverses and ducks his head for a back body drop but Harvey stops himself and kicks Savage in the face and chest. Savage stands bolt upright and looks dead at Harvey. Harvey runs at Savage for a clothesline but Savage ducks and Harvey keeps running. Savage ducks his head now and catches Harvey with a flapjack. As both men get up Savage runs the ropes and connects with a clothesline. Harvey gets up and is caught with another. Once again Harvey gets up and gets kicked in the abdomen. With Harvey doubled over Savage hits the swinging neck breaker. Savage covers.

Savage stands up quickly and breathes heavily and looks around him. He wonders what to do next. His aggression still welling inside of him he picks Harvey up and hits a suplex. He hooks both legs for a cover.

Kick out

Savage gets up again and begins to stomp Harvey. He picks him up and hits a swinging neck breaker. Savage slides out of the ring and goes to the ring skirting.

Pilgrim: What’s this about Tony?

Almanti: You have as good an idea as I have

Savage reaches under the ring and pulls out a ladder. He sets it up outside the ring. He slides back in and hits a snap suplex. He now goes outside the ring again and scales the ladder.

Pilgrim: I think Passion is rearing it’s ugly head here

Almanti: Not to mention stupidity

Savage gets to the top of the ladder. In the ring Harvey is getting up. As Harvey turns Savage goes to jump but at the last minute he second guesses himself. Reason got in his way. However, he has already left the ladder, Reason having succeeded only in slowing his momentum. Savage falls and hot shots himself on the top rope and gets sandwiched in an ugly position outside of the ring between the ladder and the ring. Harvey sees this and takes advantage. He bolts out of the ring and picks up the unconscious Harvey. He rolls him back into the ring and picks him up again. He runs the ropes and leaps into the air, catching Savage with the “Unstoppable Force”. He covers his man.

[jtn]

Dan Harvey is seen in the back after just winning his match. Greg Kilgreen runs up to him.

Greg: Amazing win Mr Harvey. Where do you see yourself going now that you lost the TV title?

Dan: I'm moving on up. That title was holding me back anyways.

Greg: It was?

Dan: Yes it was, now that I don't have it anymore. Someone tell Reck or Eagles, whoever wins that title tonight, that they will have to face me in the coming weeks. I plan on winning that World Championship and it won't matter who the champion is after tonight because it will be mine soon enough.

Harvey walks off as the camera cuts back to the ring.

[jtn]

"Bad to the Bone" starts to play as Flap comes down to the ring with ALF who is carrying an Cooler full of DR PEPPER! Flap has his Tag Team championship around his waist as he gets to the ring.

Huff: On his way to the ring accompanied by ALF, he is one half of the POW Tag Team Champions, Flap Flanagan!

Flap gets into the ring as his music fades. The lights fade between red and white and as "Last Year's Nest" by Boy Sets Fire hits Jason stepts out onto the stage and cracks his fingers. He highfives the fans on the walk to the ring. When he gets there he slides in and flips to his feet similar to Super Crazy.

Huff: In the ring now, Jason Coughlin!

Pilgrim: This young man has to be considered a heavy favorite after winning his last two 3 way matches. One with Ci in it.

Coughlin stretches some more as his music fades. “Out to get me" Guns 'n' Roses hits as Big Ci comes out onto the stage, he raises his title high in the air then heads down the ramp highfiving fans along the way.

Pilgrim: Well here we are the Main Event at last!

Almanti: What a match this is going to be! A 2/3 Falls Ladder Match for the POW World Championship! Does it get any bigger?

Pilgrim: No it doesn’t not when you throw Reck Maverick and Josh Eagles in the mix!

Almanti: I don’t even know if I could make a guess at who will win.

Pilgrim: That’s easy, the FANS.

Smoke begins to rise from the stage and pyro erupts around the arena as “I Don’t Wanna Be” begins to play and the crowd goes wild as Josh Eagles makes his way onto the ramp staring down the ramp, which has 3 ladders lined up on either side. Josh shakes his head back and forth and slowly makes his way down to the ring checking the ladders as he goes making sure they are sturdy all with a look of focus on his face. Finally Josh reaches the ring and slides under the bottom rope and throws his hand in the air as he un straps the POW Tag Team Championship and hands it to Benny Lawson. Josh goes to the ropes and begins stretching and watching the ramp waiting for Reck Maverick.

The lights in the arena go dark and all over the arena dark blue and crimson red pyro flies into the air and then the lights begin to alternate between the same colors and the fans again go wild as Reck Maverick makes his way onto the ramp also eyeing up the ladders and looking a lot more bare missing his three heavyweight titles. Reck slowly makes his may down the ramp not giving his normal thumbs up to the crowd all his attention on the ladders. When he reaches the first he looks up to the very top of it and takes a deep breathe and shakes his head a little then heads toward the ring.

Reck climbs onto the apron and up the turnbuckle standing on top and pointing to the crowd who is still cheering loudly then jumps down into the ring and stares at Josh and draws his Blade Of Legend, pointing it at him and the putting it away and handing it off. Reck continues to stare at Josh and then begins to stretch as Huff takes center ring.

Huff: The following contest is your Main Event match up and is for the POW World Heavyweight Championship. This match will be a best 2 out of 3 falls match with the winner being the first combatant to climb the ladder and pull down not one but TWO of the Heavyweight Titles suspended above the ring. Now let me introduce to you the challenger who weighs in at 175lbs and stands 6’ tall, hailing from Belleville, Ontario, Canada, he is one half of the POW Tag Team Champions JOSH EAGLESSSSS!!!

The crowd goes wild with cheers as Josh Eagles steps forward with his hand raised in the air.

Huff: Now let me introduce to you your defending POW Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion hailing from San Jose, California, standing 5’ 11” and weighing in at 220lbs, he is the ATOMIC NINJA, RECKKKK MAVERICKKKKK!

Reck now takes a step forward as the crowd goes crazy with cheers and Reck nods his head and stares at Eagles. Benny Lawson steps forward and rings the bell.

POW World Championship Match
2/3 Falls Ladder Match
Winner Must Pull Down 2/3 Championships
Reck Maverick © vs Josh Eagles

Josh and Reck slowly begin to circle each other around the ring sizing each other up, they circle over and over again until Josh leaps onto the turn buckle and throws his hands in the air and gets the crowd pumped and they go crazy with cheers. Josh jumps down and smiles at Reck and then Reck gets onto a turnbuckle and gives the crowd a thumbs up and they go crazy with cheers. The two go back and forth doing this for a moment and neither of them seem able to get the crowd fully on their side.

Pilgrim: This crowd is split 50/50.

Almanti: Just like this match is going to be, that and brutal, I can’t wait.

Pilgrim: I have to say neither can I.

Finally Reck and Josh stop getting the crowd going and circle each other again finally meeting in the center for a collar and elbow tie up with Reck quickly pushing Josh back into the corner and letting him go with a clean break. Reck backs to the center of the ring and calls Josh to come again and he does approaching him with a smile and locking up again and this time Josh twists behind to lock Reck in a hammer lock, which Reck quickly reverses into a hammerlock of his own. Josh again reverses it, but releases the hammer lock and pulls Reck into a side headlock, but Reck backs Josh up and shoots him off the ropes.

Reck drops to the ground and Josh jumps over him and then Josh bounces off the ropes again and Reck jumps high into the air and Josh runs under him, but grabs onto the ropes as he sees Reck is set and ready for him to come back. Josh smiles and claps his hands together before circling around the ring again. Reck watches Josh who comes in and ties up again, but Reck quickly takes Josh over with a headlock takedown, Josh wraps his feet around Reck’s head, but Reck kips up and Josh reaches out and sweeps his feet out from under him and quickly gets up and tries for an elbow drop, but Reck moves aside and both men get to their feet and are at a standoff.

Pilgrim: These two look to be dead even, early on and neither can get the advantage over the other.

Almanti: This is only like the 50th match these two have had, not to mention they used to tag together, train together, and grow up together. I wonder why they are so even?

Pilgrim: Smart ass.

Reck again beckons Josh forward and when they tie up this time Josh is quick to break the lock up and drop to the ground and take Reck down with a drop toe hold and the jump up into a side headlock. Reck manages to see it coming and struggle to his feet and bring Josh up in a back suplex attempt but Josh flips out of it landing on his feet and then drop kicking Reck in the back of the head sending him into the ropes. Josh then runs forward and clotheslines Reck over the top rope and onto the floor. Reck looks groggy as he gets to his feet and turns around and Josh comes running and hits him with a baseball slide under the ropes then grabs the top rope and planchas over the top and onto Reck on the outside of the ring.

Josh is the first to his feet and he drags Reck back to his feet and slides him into the ring under the bottom rope, then climbs onto the apron and springboards over landing hard on Reck with a big leg drop. Josh gets up and looks at the downed Reck then drops to his back and rolls outta the ring heading for the ladders. Josh is just pulling one down when Reck comes running up behind him and nails him with a double sledge to the back taking Josh down to a knee and causing him to drop the ladder. Reck drags Josh back up and whips him into the barricade and runs at him as Josh hits hard, but Josh has enough wits to duck down and he backdrops Reck over the barricade and into the audience.

Josh grabs a ladder quick and rotates it and climbs halfway up and as Reck gets to his feet Josh leaps off the ladder attempting a double sledge of his own but Reck ducks and buries a right hand into Josh’s gut causing him to front flip and land back first on the concrete floor. Reck quickly drags Josh back to his feet and scoop slams him back onto the floor causing Josh to roll around in agony holding his back. Reck climbs back over the barricade and starts to take down another ladder and then turns around as Josh comes running across the barricade leaping off it and onto the ladder and Reck causing what looks like a big car crash on the ramp.

Almanti: Holy crap, these two are already beating the hell out of each other.

Pilgrim: This is just getting started, that is even scarier.

Josh is the first to get to his feet holding his midsection and dragging the ladder off Reck and picking it up. Reck raises the ladder and drops it back onto Reck trying to inflict more damage then he takes it and starts heading toward the ring. Josh slides the ladder under the bottom rope and slides under himself. Josh goes to pick the ladder up but looks down the ramp and sees Reck is getting back to his feet. Josh slides back out of the ring and starts looking under the ring and comes out with a steel chair, but he didn’t see Reck pick up the ladder they had taken down earlier and as Josh turns around Reck levels him with the ladder right in the head.

Reck looks down at Josh and slides his own ladder into the ring and follows it himself. Reck picks it up placing it directly below the first belt and sets it up and begins to climb it. Reck is only one rung away from the top when Josh slides back into the ring and grabs his bottom foot yanking hard and pulling Reck off the ladder and causing him to face plant on the canvas and the ladder to fall over. Josh grabs the other ladder and takes it to the corner wedging it in between the ropes causing a small shelf, then drags Reck to his feet and back him into the far corner and whips him, but Reck reverses and sends Josh forward instead, but Josh again reverses catching Reck with a whisper in the wind off the wedged ladder.

Josh rolls over to the ropes and uses them to help himself to his feet as Reck begin to struggle to his own. Josh rushes Reck leaping into the air and nailing Reck in the chest with a dropkick which knocks Reck into one of the corners. Josh then gets back to his feet and runs at Reck attempting to spear him but Reck uses the ropes to leap into the air and hold himself up as Josh goes shoulder first into the post and stumbles back out. Reck takes advantage kicking Josh in the gut and picking him up and dropping him down with a hard shoulder breaker. Then grabbing Josh’s injured arm and placing both legs across his chest Reck falls back with an arm bar applying pressure to the injury.

Almanti: Submissions don’t count in this match!

Pilgrim: Yeah, but it is sure hard to climb a ladder with one arm.

Back in the ring Josh has managed to grab the bottom rope, but Lawson can’t administer a count as it doesn’t matter but Reck releases the hold anyway and gets to his feet. Reck looks at Josh who is laying on the ground holding his arm then runs across the ring and bounces off the ropes baseball sliding into Josh and now sending him out of the ring and onto the floor. Reck gets back up and heads towards a ladder again positioning it below the first belt and begins to climb to the top.

1 rung

2 rungs

3 rungs

4 rungs

5 rungs

6 rungs

Just as Reck is again 2 rungs from the top attempting to reach out and grab the first belt Josh slides back into the ring and dropkicks the ladder sending Reck crashing off the ladder, over the ropes and to the outside of the ring.

Pilgrim: OH MY GOD! Did you see that?

Almanti: Reck is going to be down for a while and it looks like Josh is going to be able to take advantage and get that first belt.

Pilgrim: No he won’t Josh is still down in the ring.

Josh now lays with barely any motion in the ring and Reck lays on the outside motionless. Finally Josh begins to move heading toward the closest turnbuckle to help himself to his feet. Josh struggles holding his right arm and walks across the ring grabbing the ladder and pulling it to the center, then with one arm he begins his slow climb up the ladder after the title.

Both Reck and Josh are on the canvas barely moving and both begin to move at the same time as well, crawling toward the ladder. Both reach the ladder Reck going to the farther side and both begin to climb to the top.

Finally Reck grabs Josh’s head and smashes it a couple times into the ladder then steps up as far as he could go dragging Josh up with him and lifting him right up and placing him on his shoulders. Reck then slowly turns around and leaps off the top releasing Josh in mid air to nail him with the MAVERICK CUTTER.

Pilgrim: OH MY GOD! Reck Maverick just hit the Maverick Cutter on Josh Eagles from the very very top of the ladder.

Almanti: This match is over both men half to be dead after that!

Benny Lawson is checking on both men who are not moving and looks confused at what to do. Just then Reck flinches and rolls over to his stomach and begins to crawl toward the ladder still set up in the center of the ring. Reck grabs the bottom rung and begins to pull himself slowly to his feet finally placing his foot on the bottom rung and beginning to slowly climb.

1st Belt: Northeastern Heavyweight Championship – Reck Maverick

Pilgrim: Reck Maverick has done it, claiming the 1st fall in this match up.

Almanti: So now they get a 2 minute breather and we are into round 2. Josh has his back up against the wall.

Pilgrim: After that move, Josh may not be moving for a while.

In the ring Lawson is checking on Josh while Reck slumps in the corner taking a breather. Josh is finally starting to show signs of life and Lawson seems to be asking if he would like to continue and Josh replies yes, his forehead dripping blood and his midsection is turned a deep shade of red. Lawson stands up and begins to clear the ring of all the ladders making a fresh start. After two minutes has passed Lawson calls for the bell and Josh just makes it to his feet blood dripping from his forehead and looks like his mouth too and he is leaning heavily on the ropes. Reck wastes no time rushing forward at him, but Josh is quick to duck down, or he just can’t stand and drops holding the top rope and allowing Reck to plummet over the top to the outside.

Josh rolls out of the ring after him looking to be putting a lot of effort into even standing on his own two feet and drags Reck back to his feet. Josh drags Reck over to the announce table and smashes him head first into it then locks him up and brings him over with a snap suplex. Josh again gets back to his feet looking around a little lost, but stumbles over to the time keeper and takes the steel chair from them and as Reck gets to his feet he is met with steel on skull as Josh swings the chair full force at his head. Josh then drags Reck to his feet and Reck is now seen to be busted open and bleeding. Josh whips Reck forward and Reck bounces hard off the steel ring steps as Josh slumps to his own knees and starts crawling back toward the ring.

Pilgrim: Josh may have put a hurting on Reck now, but it doesn’t look like he has got much fuel left himself.

Almanti: I don’t know if Josh has what it takes to even climb a ladder right now.

Josh rolls back into the ring and instead of going for a ladder Josh begins to slowly climb the turnbuckle as Reck struggles to his feet on the outside. Reck gets up and turns around just as Josh comes flying off the top rope onto him with the “Sweet Sacrifice” (Swanton Bomb) taking both him and Reck out once again. Both men lay motionless on the outside as Lawson again comes to check on them and this time Josh is the first to move again crawling back towards the ring and sliding under the turnbuckle and into the ring. He crawls toward the center of the ring and as he does he seems to notice there is no ladder in the ring anymore and looks around to where one might be.

Josh slides back out of the ring and heads up the ramp to pick up another ladder, he folds it down and turns around to see Reck Maverick back on his feet and stumbling his way, Josh rushes forward and gives Reck a little payback from earlier driving the ladder right into Reck’s skull laying him out on the ground. Josh then drops the ladder and opens it up on the ground, sliding Reck in between it and opening and closing it with force onto Reck a few times. Josh then grabs another ladder and tosses it into the ring and slides in after it setting it up right away, not even close to the belt, but close to the ropes instead.

Josh then begins to climb the ladder and when he gets to the top he holds his hand high and points at Reck who is still laying in between the ladder on the outside below not moving. The crowd goes crazy with cheers and Josh places both hands on top of the ladder and leap frogs over it, out of the ring, and lands with a big leg drop across the ladder Reck is in between below.

Pilgrim: That man is INSANE!

Almanti: What was the point of that, Reck was already out?

Pilgrim: Josh said that he was going to leave it all out there, but this is just ridiculous.

Almanti: Reck is broken in half and Josh might have well broken is own leg with that move.

Josh is now rolling around holding the top of his leg and Reck Maverick is laying still motionless under a visibly broken ladder. Benny Lawson is trying to unhinge the ladder and get Reck out from in between so he can examine him as Josh limps back to his feet and slides into the ring. Josh places the ladder under the belt now and begins to make his own slow climb toward the top.

2nd Belt – POW Midwestern Heavyweight Championship – Josh Eagles

[jtn]

Pilgrim: Josh has done it, Reck and Josh now both have 1 fall, the next fall wins the POW World Championship.

Almanti: If either of these two can move, neither of them has shown any sign of life yet.

Pilgrim: That is not all they need to worry about.

On the ramp Flap Flanagan and the entire Flanchise crew has appeared to the boo’s of the crowd and they begin to walk toward the ring spreading out and picking up all the ladders. They are laughing and after they collect all the ladders they begin to head back up the ramp and away from the ring. Flap stops at the top of the ramp producing a mic and laughing.

Flanagan: Should be fun to see how long you two can kick the hell out of each other before one of you can locate a ladder to win this match!

Flap then exits and the ring area is left empty of ladder minus the ladder Reck Maverick has just been pulled from that is far too damaged to work.

Pilgrim: What the heck did Flap do that for?

Almanti: That was more then likely his idea of a fun joke!

Pilgrim: Well Josh is starting to get to his feet and he won’t be amused!

Almanti: Neither will Reck who is finally showing signs of life.

On the outside Benny Lawson is almost pleading with Reck to just give the match up, but Reck shakes him off and slowly manages to get to his feet, both of them shaky underneath his weight. But finally he gets focused on the ring and sees Josh standing using the ropes for support clutching the POW Midwestern Heavyweight Title in his hands. Reck seems to gain some life by this as he slides in the ring and rushes across the ring and Josh drops the belt to meet him and both start exchanging right hands as Lawson calls for the bell to start round three.

Reck manages to get the advantage and back Josh up into the corner and levels him a few more times then steps out throwing his hands in the air and getting a cheer from the crowd then rushing in at Josh and nailing him with a devastating reverse elbow and following it up with a bronco buster. Reck then pulls Josh to a laying position and grabs his legs and catupults him smashing Josh’s face off the turnbuckle.

Almanti: Advantage Reck!

Pilgrim: Well I don’t think Josh is even conscious after that?

Almanti: He looks to still be moving.

Reck slides out of the ring and heads to the ramp looking for a ladder and then comes to the realization that there are none there anymore. Reck turns and sprints to the ring and begins to look under the ring for a ladder but to no avail. He then begins to question Benny Lawson who explains to him about Flap and the Flanchise Crew taking the ladders. Reck gets frusterated and begins to curse and when he turns around he is leveled as Josh nails him with a hard clothesline, then quickly following it up with an elbow drop.

Josh gets back to his feet quickly and steps onto the apron and heads up the turnbuckle and looks down at Reck signaling for the “Sweet Sacrifice” (Swanton Bomb), but Reck manages to roll out of the ring to safety and Josh just hops down, but doesn’t stop there running across the ring and diving between the middle ropes with a kamikaze dive onto Reck on the outside smashing Reck into the ring barricade. Josh gets back to his feet and gets the crowd pumped and begins to look around himself for a ladder.

Josh quickly remembers what happened and climbs into the ring and up the turnbuckle and begins peering around the crowd, seeming to see what he wants Josh hops down off the turnbuckle, slides out of the ring, and heads into the crowd.

Almanti: What is Josh giving up?

Pilgrim: I don’t know! Where is he going?

Reck is back on his feet and is over the ring barrier and after Josh as they both make their way through the cheering crowd. Reck is gaining ground on Josh, but Josh grabs a pop can from a fan and turns around and drives it into Reck’s skull then locks him up and hits him with a fisherman’s suplex on the concrete floor. Reck is holding his back as Josh drags him back to his feet and through the crowd with him, finally reaching a “lunch” table and attempting to smashing Reck’s head into it. But Reck blocks and Josh ends up getting smashed head first into the table instead, then Reck rolls him onto the table and slides him across the entire thing covering Josh in food items.

Reck turns around and his eyes light up as he sees what Josh must have seen earlier, a small part of the arena is under construction and an insane 20 foot ladder is standing there. Reck smiles and punches Josh in the head a few times then heads over to the ladder and begins to take it down. Reck is successful but just before he is nailed in the back of the head with broomstick Josh picked up. Josh drags Reck back to his feet and whips him hard into the wall and backdrops him as he comes off. Josh then goes for the ladder picking it up and slowly making his way back toward the ring with it.

By the time Josh reaches the food table he is clubbed from behind once again by Reck who was not kept down and he drops the ladder and as he turns around Reck kicks him in the gut and hoists him onto his shoulder delivering the Maverick Cutter and landing Josh right ontop of the ladder. Reck gets back to his feet and picks up the ladder and begins to head back toward the ring, but stops dead in his tracks and turns around to look at Josh, then his eyes glance toward the table, and back down at the ladder.

Reck then drops the ladder and walks over to Josh dragging him to his feet and back over to the food table where he lays Josh down and punches him in the head a few times. Reck then returns to the ladder picking it up and setting it up and begins to slowly climb the ladder.

Pilgrim: What is Reck doing now?

Almanti: Something stupid he had the match won!

Pilgrim: Maybe it is Josh goding him and saying who would take it farther?

Almanti: Yeah remember the triple threat when Reck won cause Josh took his eyes off the prize?

Pilgrim: Oh yeah!

Almanti: that is coming to mind right now!

Reck is nearing the top of the ladder when Josh rolls off the table and begins to climb the other side of the ladder. Both men are climbing now, with no prize above them and Reck is the first to reach the top, seeing Josh climbing he tries to throw a punch but it is weak and Josh blocks the second attempt and they are now both going punch for punch on the top of the ladder. This time Josh is the smart one grabbing Reck by the back of the head and nailing his face into the ladder a couple of times. Josh climbs up the rest of the way and picks Reck up onto his back and falls backwards off the ladder with Reck locked in the Eagles Wings (Celtic Cross) and both men smash through the table below!

Pilgrim: HOLY CRAP HOLY CRAP

Almanti: FROM 20 FEET IN THE AIR???

Pilgrim: They are dead for sure!

Almanti: Both of these men should be!

Lawson is again checking on both men and signaling for medical teams to come, but that doesn’t happen as Josh groans and begins to crawl toward the ladder and uses it to help him to his feet, Reck is still out cold. Josh takes down the ladder and he makes his way toward the ring and the final title. Josh makes it all the way to the barricade and Reck is still not moving, all the way to the ring and no movement from Reck. Josh slides the ladder into the ring and sets it up under the belt, the ladder is so big the top of it is touching the belt.

Josh begins to slowly climb as Reck shows the first signs of life. But half way up Josh stops, staring down the ramp he sees Jeska Eagles come out again holding that steel chair and Josh comes back down the ladder. When Jeska is halfway down the ramp another surprise emerges as Jayde Nightwood comes running down the ramp and grabs the chair from Jeska. Jeska turns around and Jayde hits her in the head with the chair and throws it down onto the ramp and walks back up.

Almanti: Is Jayde helping Josh win?

Pilgrim: No, she is making sure this match is won fair and square for the sake of BOTH men who have put their bodies on the line.

Back in the ring Josh gives Jayde a thumbs up and begins climbing the ladder once again and outside Reck is back on his feet and sees Josh climbing and begins a groggy run toward the ring. Josh is halfway up the ladder as Reck makes the security rail … Reck slides into the ring, Josh hands are around the belt, Reck lunges forward and pushes the ladder away, but Josh holds onto the belt dangling high above the ring. Josh reaches up with the other hand and unclasps it falling to the ground below, the POW World Title in his clutches as Reck stands there stunned!

Winner and NEW POW World Champion: Josh Eagles

Pilgrim: It’s over, we have a new champion OH MY GOD!

Almanti: Reck can’t believe it, I can’t believe it!

Pilgrim: Josh is a two time POW World Champion after all of that!

Almanti: What a match!

Lawson is ringing the bell and streamers are falling from the ceiling as Reck stands in the middle of the ring with his hands on his hips staring at Josh who is on the ground clutching the World Title to his chest. Lawson comes over to check on him and helps him to his feet and Josh raises the World Title in the air and the crowd goes crazy for him. He then turns around and sees Reck standing there and Josh stops dead in his tracks staring at him right back with a look of triumph on his face. Reck then extends his hand to Josh, slowly. Josh looks at his hand and then to the crowd who are cheering like wild and Josh grabs Reck’s hand without a second thought and they shake hands and then Reck raises Josh’s hand into the air and the scene fades out with Reck and Josh hands in the air, Josh holding the POW World Championship.
