WCTNA Thread 34: TNA based efed

[Perpetual Nirvana]

*the show opens on Eric Bischoff sitting behind his desk, Miss Adams at his side*

Good evening, and welcome to iMPACT. Tonight we usher in a new age for WCTNA wrestling.

Now I know change can be hard to accept, maybe even scary. But trust me. Beck in 1994, WCW was a little promotion. like WCTNA, they had all the tools to succeed. A rich benefactor. A deep talent pool. Big name stars. All they needed was the creative visionary to take them to the next level. To come up with the thing that gets everyone talking. Now that I am in full control, you have that visionary.

Right now WCTNA stands on on the cusp of greatness. under my leadership, I can take WCTNA to the next level. But understand that change will be need. It may be violent, harsh process but in order for WCTNA to compete at the highest level, it is nessesary. You will eventually thank me for it.

So, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to an new era for WCTNA.

[Perpetual Nirvana]

Tenay: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to WCTNA iMPACT. I'm Mike Tenay along with Don West at ringside as Eric Bischoff has promised a new era for WCTNA.
West: Things are gonna change round here all right.
Tenay: Well with Bischoff in complete control, things won't be the same again.



*AJ comes to the ring with the world title over his shoulder*

Well hear we are again. Another PPV another sucessful title defense for the Phenomenal one.

I did everything I said I was going to do. I went into the Ultimate X, I put on an awesome match. I dunno if it was better than Victory Road. You'll just have to decide that when you vote for the Match of the Year in a few months time. But most important of all, I walked out STILL WCTNA World Heavyweight Champion.

Unfortunately Christopher Daniels won't see it like that. Rather than being proud of his effort on Sunday night, he'll see it as another example of WCTNA holding him back. You don't get it. I wasn't WCTNA. WE were WCTNA. It was always Styles and Daniels. When people think about WCTNA they don't think of me, they think about us! I told you all along. You're just as good as I am. You proved that at Destination X when I had to push myself so hard to beat you. The iMPACTZone believes you're that good. You all appreciate the effort Chris put in last Sunday, don't you? Well let's hear it! Fallen Angel! Fallen Angel!

*AJ leads the iMPACZone in a huge "Fall-en Ang-el!" chant*

You see? Much like the Tinman, the Scarcrow and the Cowardly Lion, what you were looking for you had all along. Respect. You the respect of these people here. And you have my respect. So I'm asking you again. Why don't you come down to this ring and we can shake hands like men and let bygones be bygones. What do you say?



*Money begins falling from the ceiling as D'Angelo Dinero makes his way towards the ring.*

AJ, AJ, AJ. I know you want this moment to be AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels sharing a tender moment, no doubt to please the fans and make yourself feel all warm and fuzzy inside. But brother, you need to be doing what Pope is doing: looking towards the future, not the past.

See, I beat Kurt Angle in the ring, just like I said I would. I've finally got you one-on-one for that title you have around your waist. I've beaten you twice AJ. And believe you me, I'm going for the hat trick at No Surrender.

D'Angelo Dinero. The Pope. I was expecting you to come out here an confront me sometime soon. Gotta say, I wasn't quite expecting it yet. But no time like the present, like they say. You know though, I think you got your old win-loss records a little one-sided there. Haven't I beaten you just as much as you've beaten me? Maybe even more?

AJ my man, did you take a nasty spill on Sunday? You've only beaten me ONCE partner. It's 2-1 in favor of Pope Daddy, which means that come No Surrender, it's YOU who's the underdog. And I know, I know. "AJ Styles thrives under pressure" or something like that. But brother, there's no stopping the Pope Mobile. Kurt Angle took a ride on it last night. Your boy Abyss took a ride last month. And according to my watch, you're due for a ride yourself soon.

D'Angelo, buddy, you may want to check the scoreboard again. again. I beat you on the July 10th iMPACT. And then I pinned you again in a six-man tag on the July 19th iMPACT. And I also beat you again in a tag match two weeks ago. So the score is actually Styles 3, Dinero 2.

*Dinero smiles*

Sure, you would count your little tag team matches as wins over me. But look at the cold, hard facts AJ. You needed help getting two of your wins over Pope Daddy. You needed someone else weakening him just so you could come in and finish me off.

No Surrender isn't going to be like that AJ. There's no one that's going to weaken Pope just so you can get the easy win. And when I make it THREE to ONE, maybe you'll show me the same amount of respect you tried to show Christopher Daniels right now, wherever he may be.

And how many of your wins were under your own power? I seem to remember you taking advantage of Brutus Magnus interference. So don't act like you beat me all on your lonesome.

Look, forget about the scoreboard for now. You want respect? Respect isn't a problem. I respect every guy who comes out here to challenge me. In fact that used to be part of the lyrics to my entrance theme. The problem is Pope, have you earned it? Have you really shown that drive and determination? Being world champion is more than scoring the odd win here or there. It's the heart, the desire, to prove you are the best wrestler in the world at the moment. Until you beat me in the middle of the ring with the title on the line, your wins over me won't mean anything.

That so? I've proven time and time again I belong in the upper echelon here in WCTNA. Team Dinero, not Team Magnus, won Lethal Lockdown. I was but ONE second away from winning that belt you have over your shoulder at Slammiversary. I've beaten Abyss so many times it's become almost a hobby for me. Pinned Kurt Angle last week. You can say I need to prove that I've earned the respect, I say I've done so. I didn't get this shot at the belt like Bobby Lashley did, I did it by proving myself for months. Odd wins nothing AJ, Pope's on a run so big you may as well call me Carl Lewis.

Say my wins mean nothing against you AJ. Because quite frankly, your tag teams wins over me amount to nothing. So yeah, maybe you're 1-0 against Pope if we cancel our wins out. But the thing you're going to learn real soon at No Surrender is Pope NEVER is on the losing side for too long. You have precious few weeks with that belt AJ. And believe it or not, that's not cockiness AJ. That's confidence.

Yeah, you'll been on a roll. I admit that. But the past six months I've had? I battled the Greater Good single handed and came out victorious, I ended Brutus Magnus' year long reign of terror, I became only the third man to retain the world title in King of the Mountain and I defeated my former friend in Ultimate X. So make no mistake, I am on the roll of my life too. So if you are good enough to beat me at No Surrender and become world champion, then you damn sure will have earned. I can't take that away from you. But don't think it'll be easy, Dinero. Because I'll do what I have done in every match I've had where this belt is on the line. Fight my hardest, give everything I have, and walk out STILL world champion.

You know AJ, you really do like to stratch the truth, don't you? True, you may not be outright lying, but you stretch the truth like it's made of rubber.

Fighting the Greater Good single-handedly? The way I remember it, you beat Matt Morgan for his FoF case and left Daniels to go against Joe for months. Then when the Greater Good failed, you and your pal Daniels went to war for about two months. No doubt you're coutning that as well.

But that aside, yeah, you're on a roll. One so big, it rivals mine. But make no mistake AJ. I may respect you, but I'm not like Daniels. I'm not going to let my hatred for you blind me from what's important. The WCTNA Heavyweight Title.

You...hate me! That's depressing. I mean you don't even know me, man!

*AJ feigns looking upset, the quickly cheers up*

So how about I let you get to know me. Why don't we give your "Congregation" a little preview. Styles v Dinero. Right here, tonight!

*Pope begins laughing at this.*

AJ, allow me to let you in on a little secret....

Pope doesn't work for free. Ever.

For the last couple of weeks, I've put on instnat classics against everyone who's stepped into the ring with me. And why? Because I knew that my reward would be getting a match with you. I've put in the effort, I've got my guaranteed match. So me facing you, it would be nice beating you once again, but I have nothing to gain from it. The amount of energy Pope needs to put on one of his guaranteed classics may be concealed in his little pinkie, but quite frankly, it's not worth wasting on you at this moment. You have a reprieve until No Surrender, when I will win the WCTNA Heavyweight Title.

Really?! Well I guess that's fair.

*AJ goes to leave*

Although...Jay and Joe are you looking for tag partners. How about I team with Jay, you team with Joe. That acceptable to you, your holiness?

Let's see. A chance to go up against my old and severely overrated partner, a chance to beat you again, and I have Samoa Joe, someone for whom "crazy" can't even begin to describe, as my partner?

Oh it's on AJ. It's on.

Well in that case, see you later. D'Angie.

AJ, I like you brother, so I'm gonna let that one slide. But I suggest you get the name of the man who's going to beat you at No Surrender right.

Just in case you forgot, I'm the hand-clappin', foot-tappin', trail-blazin', attendance-raising, record-settin', attention-gettin', Suntan Superman himself.... YOUR future WCTNA Heavyweight Champion, The Pope, D'Angelo Dinero!

Pope Has Spoken AJ. I suggest you start listening.

*Kevin Nash's music hits and Big Sexy walks out onto the stage, soaking in the cheers of his adoring fanbase. He reaches into the pocket of his pants, pulling out a familiar pair of glasses and putting them on. Nash walks to the ring, stepping over the top rope and holding up his mic.*

"How y'all doing here in the Impact Zone? Good time? Good night so far, yeah? Hey, I know I've got my match against the Amazing Red later on tonight. Red's a good guy. Got nothing against him. But if I'm gonna get back in the hunt for that ever-so important WCTNA World Championship, I gotta keep up the Ws. Just the facts of life. Which, by the way, was an excellent show."

*Nash shrugs, to the approval of the audience. He raises the mic back up, grinning to the crowd and tapping his glasses.*

"But there IS good news. No matter what, I've been making plans...and this is a big one, ladies and gentlemen. Since it's been a while, and since you loved it so much last time, Kevin Nash is going to step in and offer a hand up to the X-Division once again out of the goodness of his heart. Yes, the Doctor is in, and the testing's getting scheduled...."

*The crowd screams, knowing exactly what Nash's implying. He grins even wider, speaking over the noise.*

"That's right! Kevin Nash is going to be bringing back the one, the only, the tournament of tournaments, the PAPARAZZI! CHAMPIONSHIP! SERIES! Apply if you can, get accepted if I let you! Sorry Taz, it's a good line. Now then...Alex Shelley, I'm going to want to talk to YOU for sure. Gotta get the trophy back. Hey, those things don't come on the cheap. I will see YOU folks later on. Enjoy the show, and don't forget to tip Mike Tenay!"

*Nash walks back out, the crowd cheering him the entire way back. He pauses right at the exit back offstage to lower his glasses and look at the crowd inquisitively before disappearing INTO THE BACK!*

[Perpetual Nirvana]

*Taylor Wilde comes down to the ring.*

Sigh... Hamada, please. You haven't been returning my calls, you've ignored me this entire week.... I don't know how many times I can apologize anymore.

We went out there with a plan, and I admit, I messed up. But this whole cold shoulder you're giving me, I don't deserve it. So can you just come down here so we can talk about it?



*Hamada comes out, obviously still upset with Taylor as she enters the ring.*

Finally you answer me. I've left you message after message, on your phone, your facebook, your house... everything. I made a mistake, I can live with that. So why the hell can't you forgive me?

*Hamada stares at Taylor for several long seconds before grabbing a mic.*

The only other person that has pinned me in WCTNA is Sara Del Rey months ago. Ever since then, I've made it my mission to never suffer the same humiliation I felt then. And until Destination X, I haven't.

You entered me into that match without my knowledge, all to deal with the woman who drove you insane last year. The same woman that hit you over the head with a belt the year prior. You agree to put yourself in turmoil once more, and I'm supposed to save you from it by beating her. Not once do I complain about it.

I suffered humiliation not only when I was pinned by Daffney, but when it was due to my partner, someone I consider a friend, is the cause. I may avenge my loss to her, and if I have my way it'll be soon, but I can never truly atone for my loss. All thanks to you.

What do you want, me to get down on bended knee and say I'm sorry? People lose Hamada. I've lost. Daffney's lost. Even your former friends Joe and Petey lost. No one has a perfect streak, and considering you've only lost TWICE, I don't want to hear your bitching. "Waaah, I've lost". "Waah, my honor was lost because I've been pinned ONCE in five months."

You know what Hamada? I don't want to hear it. We've teamed for almost one year, we've been champions, and THIS is what's going to tear us apart? I don't f***ing think so. This, this is the mind games that Daffney likes to play, and quite frankly I'm surprised that you're falling for it. I picked you because I thought you were above it all. I thought that out of all the women here, you were the only one who wasn't going to be sucked in by Daffney's methods. I guess I was wrong.

Don't make this about Daffney. For months I had to hear about how much you hated her, how much she messed with your mind, and I took it. I was the one who brought you back to reality when even Alex couldn't do so. He came to me and told me that your sanity was the most precious thing to him, that he did all he could and he couldn't save you.

This isn't about me not getting pinned either, because this time, I can avenge my loss. I can break Daffney with hardly any effort and reclaim that which was taken. But as I said, the fact that it happened thanks to you is disheartening, not my loss. That is something I can't just forgive and forget.

Well then what do you want? A match? You want to beat me so that you can reclaim your oh-so-precious honor? Is that it?

If that's what you're offering, then fine. I look forward to seeing what you can bring.



*Daffney comes out to the stage carrying the Knockout Championship*

Hamada, honey, I dunno if you noticed but Taylor promised me a fight. More than that she promised me a war. All I had to do was beat you last Sunday. And judging by what happened I guess Taylor wants it as much as I do.

I know you want it. I can see that look in your eyes. You need me. You want me. But how much do you want me? Enough to to battle your friend? If you two want to fight, well that's fine with me. In fact, that's perfect. Because I talked to Eric Bischoff. And I outlined a few ideas which he seemed very receptive too, though he did tend to go on about controversy and a load of stuff which I found boooooring. But the jist of it is that there will be a match tonight. Taylor v Hamada. Winner gets a shot at my championship at No Surrender. And the kicker? This match will have a special referee. Me!

Have fun ladies. I know I will.

*Daffney chuckles to herself as she heads to the back leaving Taylor and Hamada looking uncertain in the ring*

Val: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Detroit, Michigan, at a combined weight of 420 pounds, Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin, the Motor City Machine Guns!

Good chemistry? It's the same when I do promos with TTS or AA, and occasionally with Tank.

JKO stands at the top of the ramp, mic in hand.

Ladies and gentlemen, he is STILL the WCTNA Legends Champion…


The GREAT Bobby Lashley!



Lashley rises up from below the stage, in the Heffner robe, the Legends belt peeking out from underneath.

Ladies and gentlemen!

I stand before you tonight, once more triumphant over another unworthy opponent! Abyss thought he was Legends Champion material, but he thought wrong! DOMINATED!!!!

But something happened after the match that I still don‘t really understand. Let‘s look at the footage.

Abyss goes after Lashley but Lashley throws JKO at Abyss. Black Hole Slam! Lashley makes his escape up the ramp. Suddenly a figure appears behind him.

West: Wait, is that?
Tenay: That's Desmond Wolfe! We haven't seen him for months!

Lashley, senseing a presence, turns only for Wolfe to almost take his head off with a Jawbreaker Lariat. Wolfe takes the Legends title and stares at it before dropping it onto the prone form of Lashley.

Tenay: Desmond Wolfe is back in WCTNA!

Desmond Wolfe.

A man I have no love lost for. If I remember correctly, aren’t you the reason I’m not the World Champion right now?

Who the hell do you think you are?!

I am the Great Bobby Lashley, Legends Champion! You’re lucky just to have a job! You wanna attack me after a hard fought match? You wanna make some kind of statement? At my expense? Well Desmond, you made a big mistake. Just like Hernandez and Abyss before you, prepare to be overcome by Greatness!

I am the Great Bobby Lashley.

And you’re not.

Lashley drops the mic and heads to the back, JKO in tow.

[Perpetual Nirvana]

Val the following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing from Pittsburgh, Pensylvania, weighing 240 pounds, Olympic Gold Medal winner Kurt Angle!

Tenay: Angle put on another amazing match with D'Angelo Dinero but fell just short of earning a world title match.
West: I gotta admit, Kurt almost had him but The Pope pulled out the win.
Tenay: Well Angle still a contender and he aims to prove that against Kaz here tonight.



Val: His opponent, from Anaheim, California, weighing 215 pounds, Kaz!

Tenay: If you remember back in November 2007, the then WCTNA World Champion Kurt Angle just barely defeated kaz to retain his title.
West: That's the kind of position Kaz wants to get back in and he'll hope to do so by beating Angle tonight.
