Roleplays
Patrick Steel
Part 1: The Birth of a Monster
December, 1994
A 7-year-old Patrick Steel sits in a living room lit only by a small television set watching late night reruns. The canned laughter of a sitcom can be heard as Patrick sits cross-legged on the couch, a bag of animal crackers next to him. The unmistakable sound of a howling blizzard is heard outside, causing the TV signal to cut out every now and again. Screaming can be heard from somewhere in the house, sometimes so loud that the TV can hardly be heard. Most of the screaming is being done by a man, but every so often a woman’s voice can be heard. None of these distractions seem to be fazing Patrick, who is apparently used to these sorts of things. The show goes on, along with the blizzard and the arguing, but Patrick doesn’t flinch at all, expect to grab another handful of animal crackers. Time goes by and the show comes to an end as Patrick’s eyelids start to become heavy. He fights to stay awake, but he’s clearly outmatched. The screaming dies down for a few minutes and Patrick’s eyes close, his hand still in the bag of animal crackers. The channel on the TV goes off air and the house is quite for a short time.
Out of the night, two deafening BANGS ring out within 10 seconds of each other. Patrick’s eyes open, his breaths short and heavily. The fear on is face is the first emotion he’s shown all night. He looks around, trying to determine the source of the sounds. An eerie, almost heavy-feeling quite hangs in the air, Patrick’s breathing the only thing that can slice through it. He stands up and licks his lips nervously as he slowly, cautiously walks in the direction the sounds came from. Patrick heads up the stairs and turns down the hallway. He heads toward a door at the end of the hall, a light can be seen at the bottom of it. As he reaches the door, Patrick knocks twice, very softly. No answer. He knocks twice more, a little louder. No answer. A few deep breaths to gather some courage and Patrick reaches for the doorknob. One more deep breath and he turn the knob, light fills the hallway.
“Mommy….?”
To Be Continued…
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present Day
Patrick stands outside a smallish house in Buffalo, New York, an empty look on his face. He walks to the front door, a sign reading “Vacant” nailed to it. Clearly nervous and angry, Patrick slowly reaches for the doorknob. He hesitates at first, then pulls his hand away completely. Overcome with emotion, Patrick punches the door. Patrick pulls his hand out of the hole he’s punched in the door, a stream of blood coming out of two of his knuckles. He screams at the top of his lungs before turning around, the empty look back on his face. A look up and down the street tells Patrick that no one has seen or heard him. He heads toward the street and to his car, turning around for one last look at the house before he gets in and speeds away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In an empty parking lot outside of an abandoned warehouse, Patrick adds another empty beer can to the pile already forming at his feet. He reaches into the case next to him on the hood of the car and pops open another before sitting cross-legged on the asphalt and leaning against his car. Patrick takes a big gulp of his beer, sighs, and looks to the sky.
Hi there Trinity, do you know who I am? Most people call me Patrick Steel, and for now, that’s what you’ll call me as well. After Saturday night, though, you’ll be calling me your worst nightmare. I know nothing about your Trinity, but I don’t need to know anything to know that you’re the lesser man in this match. When you’ve seen the things that I’ve seen and been through the things that I’ve been through, a wrestling match against someone who goes by “Trinity” isn’t something that frightens you. Do you know what pain is, Trinity? Not physical pain, though you’ll find out what that is on Saturday night. You’ll probably go through enough pain in that single night to last most men a lifetime, I can guarantee you that. But that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about that though. I’m talking about emotion pain, mental anguish. Have you ever experienced that Trinity? I have. More than you’ll ever know. More than you could ever imagine. And that is the reason I know I can defeat you with ease, Trinity. You don’t have the fire burning inside of you that I do. You don’t know how to channel pain and anguish like I do. I can’t wait either, because I’ve got so much built up inside me right now, I just can’t wait to unleash if on you. Get ready for the beating of your life, Trinity. Nothing you can do to me could compare to what I’ve been through. Try as hard as you want to stop me, Trinity, I’ll just keep coming. You won’t be able to stop me because you can’t stop me, it’s impossible. Well, I’ve wasted enough time on you already. I’ll see you Saturday night, Trinity.
Patrick gives a sick smile before finishing off his been in one gulp and chucks the can off into the distance. He spreads his arms and falls back. The last image we see is of Patrick lying on his back in the parking lot, surrounded by empty beer cans.
TJ Black
The sound of the customers buying drinks and dancing the night away can be heard from outside of the club. The Bartender is constantly rushed off his alternating between cleaning up, pouring pints and collecting the glasses… The rush of the nightlife, the power of the bass pumping away, the colours of the lighting, the white walls reflecting back the pink, blue, red and green lights… The dart board with a picture of Tyler Hiroko nailed to it. A dart gets thrown and it hits the Triple 20. Right in between the eyes… A second and third quickly follow each nailing the Triple 20.
TJ Black: Hmm… 180… again.
TJ walks over to the Dart board and picks out all 3 darts he lays them down on his table and sits down sipping away at his pint. He slowly places the pint of lager back on the table before speaking.
TJ Black: Tyler Hiroko. How you doing? I know you’re at home preparing for this Sunday when ICW presents “The Big Bang” live on PPV. It will be the first ever airing of International Championship Wrestling and what better way to draw a crow then to hold a grudge match where I can kick your damn head off… Have you ever sustained an injury Tyler? Do you know what it feels like to climb a 20 foot ladder with broken ribs? Do you know what it’s like to lose complete feeling in your arms rendering you helpless as you watch me pull down that championship? Tyler Hiroko do you know what it feels like to fall 30 foot onto the outside? No? That’s interesting because I do... This isn’t my first Ladder Match and it won’t be my last but I’m not here to talk about that… Tyler Hiroko, I’m here to talk about the rematch. The battle of two of the greatest professional athletes to ever grace a ring, the second round everyone has been waiting for. The return match between the coward… and the better man…
TJ finishes off his pint before gesturing for a second to the bartender.
TJ Black: Sure I hate you as a person, you and I may you have different methods of winning but I can’t argue with your results. You were undefeated over in UPW… But then again being undefeated in a bingo hall is like being the best footballer in kindergarten. Tyler I hate you for one reason and one reason only: You beat me and when I asked for a rematch you fled because deep down inside you knew that it was a fluke! You got lucky. I almost crushed you’re ribs when I put you through that announce! You almost broke your neck when you went for that suicide dive! It took you everything you had to defeat me and had I not been as kind you would still be nursing an injury in hospital. You felt the pain I put you through and you took your pay check and bolted! But you are a terrible, terrible hider. And I am one of the best seekers in this goddamn game. I found you and now you pay the ultimate price. Because our match this Sunday won’t be a wrestling match, it will be a brawl. It will be dangerous, it will be painful and it will be the end of your career. But most of all it will be my ultimate revenge. There’s an old saying that Revenge is a dish best served cold and you know what I’m feel pretty cold-blooded at this moment. And I’m just waiting for that moment. That moment when I get crush you in the middle of that ring and leave you for dead
.
Looking out onto the dance floor he watches as families, couples, friends and even loners danced to the dark beats and bright lights. He watched as one by one the security threw out a few idiots who were looking for a fight. He watched as that woman broke down into tears. And he watched as that guys collapsed because he had too much to drink…
TJ Black: This is my only luxury. Knowing that despite ever changing lives and competitions that this place will never change, knowing that once I enter here the music, the lights, the drunken ass wholes, the ridiculously sensitive woman who breaks down and cries whenever she passes her limit and the awesome guy who collapses to everyone’s entertainment… It’s nothing new to me and that is just what you are. You are a pathetic excuse for a man; apathetic excuse for a WRESTLER; a pathetic excuse for a human being. Tyler Hiroko you are nothing more than a waste of skin and come Sunday I will rectify the mistake you’re parents made when I rid this world and this company of the cancer that is Tyler Hiroko. This Sunday it is the biggest fight of your life when you enter the ring with this rabid animal.
TJ quickly launches one of the darts at the dart board and it impales the picture of Tyler into the board as a crack appears in the board. TJ just scoffs and downs the rest of his pint…
TJ Black: You see the difference between you and I is that everything you’ve ever spouted was nothing more than a huge bile of BS whilst I’ve spoken truth. I said I was great on the microphone and I proved it when I left you in my shadow. I said I was the perfect mix of Stone Cold Steve Austin, of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, of the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels and I will prove that this Sunday when I go 2:0 in both our matches. And finally I said was the great wrestler to ever grace a professional wrestling ring and I am damn certain that I can pin anyone be it you, Joe, Patrick, Jordan, Jaeger; Hell I would knock Kane Harlow’s teeth down is throat if I had to… But there is ONE similarity between us Tyler Hiroko and that’s that we were smart enough to jump-ship BEFORE that bingo hall went under. But you made a fatal mistake; you never covered you’re tracks, I followed you, I challenged you, and Kane Harlow made it official and this Sunday… I’m gonna bury you!
TJ Black walks out of the bar slapping $300 on the bar as he walks by and gets into a car before driving off into the distance
Results
THE BIG BANG
14th August 2011, Madison Square Garden Arena, 21,365 in attendance
The camera spans around the arena to show all seats and standing postitions taken by excited fans awaiting the unknown. Home-made signs are being held up all around the arena by the vast majority of the audience. All sorts of phrases are scrawled onto the signs ranging from 'Jaeger O'Meara' to 'BOOM!' and even one saying 'The women infront has a great rack'. The buzz of the fans fills the arena as the lights dim and drop.
Announcer: 10 ... 9 ... 8 .
The fans join in so the countdown booms throughout the arena.
Announcer: ..7 ... 6 ... 5 ..
Some fans now cheer and stand on their feet.
Announcer: . 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1
The first verse of Barenaked Ladies 'The Big Bang' now begins to play throughout the arena as some fans cheer and sing-a-long whilst others become slightly confused yet still anxious. The verse finishes and the words 'It all started with the big bang!' blast over the PA system.
Suddenly two huge fireworks shoot down and hit the stage at the top of the ramp sending it ablaze. Lights flash all around the arena as seemingly hundreds of fireworks zoom around the arena and flames set alight here there and everywhere. Finally the arena becomes still and quiet as the very smooth voice of announcer Stevie Jackson starts over the microphone.
Stevie Jackson: Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, myself and the whole of International Championship Wrestling take pleasure in introducing you to The Big Bang!
Fans cheer and raise the roof around the arena.
Stevie Jackson: We are proud to be here tonight in Madison Square Garden!
Fans cheer again.
Stevie Jackson: With 21,365 in attendance!
Fans cheer once more.
Stevie Jackson: And now without further a due, lets get ready to RUMBLE!
The fans go wild at this as 'Back In Black' hits over the PA system. Mr Kane Harlow now steps out from behind the curtains on to the stage and puts his hands up to all of the fans. He pauses to take in what he has created before taking a deep breath and making his way cockily to the ring. The fans give him and huge ovation as he reaches the ring and climbs inside.
Mr Kane Harlow: Too long ... too long it has been since I stepped foot into a wrestling ring. But boy am I glad to be back!
The fans cheer for the owner.
Mr Kane Harlow: When I first suggested this idea to my business partners and family they thought I had gone insane. 'A good wrestling federation, nowadays?' 'You must be kidding?' I never joke, I never kid, I do what I want. I said to them 'No I won't make a good wrestling federation ... I will make a perfect wrestling federation. And here you all are tonight to support the start of something great which is International Championship Wrestling!
The fans clap and cheer.
Mr Kane Harlow: And when I suggested the idea of having my first event starring just 6 superstars. Well they thought I'd gone crazier than ever. However, I am very sane and very serious ... but not stupid. You see I see way too many federations giving out a world championship on there first night and quite frankly think that that is insanity. Therefore tonight I have put together a small, short and sweet card featuring 3 singles matches to show you exactly what skills my superstars have and then for out main event we are going to see a 6 man tables, ladders and chairs match for the Television Championship to show you exactly what International Championship Wrestling is all about!
The fans errupt into a cheer and a 'HARLOW HARLOW HARLOW' chant breaks out.
Mr Kane Harlow: So guys I just need to know one thing. ARE YOU READY?
Tha fans scream out.
Mr Kane Harlow: I said, ARE YOU READY?
The fans sream even louder.
Mr Kane Harlow: Then I officially welcome you to International Championship Wrestling and declare this show is officially on the road!
The fans cheer as 'Back In Black' hits once more and Mr Kane Harlow begins to leave the ring.
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
As the break ends Jaeger O'Meara is already standing in the ring awaiting his opponent.
"How I Could Just Kill A Man" by Rage Against The Machine hits the speaker system, the vocals come in, and Jordan Moss steps through the curtain, adorned in a black sweatshirt, hood up, with the word "Kinslayer"on the back. Jordan stays focused on the ring, but quickly glances out at the crowd, nodding towards them. He rolls out his neck and begins the walk down the aisle, slapping the hands of a few fans along the way, never diverting his gaze from the opposite corner of the ring. Moss slides into the ring, and begins to bounce and hop in place, keeping his wind up. J-Mo removes his sweatshirt, as he awaits the start of the match.
Stevie Jackson: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is a singles match. Introducing first, he weighed in this morning at 292 pounds and stands at 6 feet and 7 inches, he is Jaeger O'Meara. And introducing secondly, he weighed in this morning at 201 pounds and stands at 5 feet and 11 inches, he is Jordan Moss.
Brian Griffin, the senior match official, beckons both to the center of the ring before giving some instructions and sending them off to the turnbuckles. The bell is rang and the match begins.
John Smith: Ladies and Gentlemen this is our first time to talk to you tonight as this match begins. I am John Smith and sitting beside me is Kash Jones. What do you think to this one Kash?
Kash: Well you know there both very different styles but I'm gonna have to go with the height and power on this one.
The two superstars are in a lock up now and fighting for the advantage. Jaeger uses his height and power to push back Moss into a turnbuckle now and hits some body shots. Moss ducks under one of the blows and moves out of the corner. Jaeger turns around to a huge kick to his thigh and one to his ribs.
John Smith: What a sound! I can almost feel those kicks!
Moss now irish whips Jaeger into the ropes but Jaeger comes back to hit a huge clothesline. Jaeger goes for the cover but barely gets a two count. Jaeger now pulls Moss to his feet and hits a scoop slam. Jaeger pulls Moss up again and hit a sidewlak slam before going for the cover. 1, 2 but Moss kicks out.
Kash: Jaeger O'Meara is looking for a quick win here John, I can just sense that it may be over soon.
Jaeger lifts Moss up again but Moss take Jaegers legs out from underneath him. Moss quickly rolls Jaeger up. 1,2,3. Moss steals it and quickly exits the ring to leave a very annoyed Jaeger.
John Smith: Well I certainly didn't see that one coming but you have to expect the unexpected here in the ICW.
Kash: Well I thought for sure O'Meara was going to have that but I'm sure they'll be some revenge some time.
Winner - Jordan Moss
The camera now fades to Mr Kane Harlow sitting in his office watching the television. His face turns to absolute disgust as what he has just seen and he shakes his head disapprovingly.
John Smith: Well thats our first match down but theres loads more to come tonight as we're only just getting started.
Kash: Why yes we are John, why yes we are. We've still got two singles matches to come along with a huge main event.
John Smith: And coming right up next we've got a singles match with the two superstars holding a huge grudge.
The First Verse of "Scream" by Adelitas Way plays as smoke fills the arena and the camera looks around into the crowd zooming in on several Black fans and signs. When Rick DeJesus sings the first "I CAN MAKE YOU SCREAM!" A shadow emerges from the smoke and TJ Black is shown in a black jacket he uses Edge's Pyro in tribute before sprinting down to the iring and sliding in like Evan Bourne. Once in the ring he runs to a random Turnbuckle and leaps to the top rope before back flipping off and landing on his feet. He then awaits his opponent.
Stevie Jackson: Introducing first, hailing from Toronto, Canada TJ Black!
The fans cheer.
"Artichokes" by Maps and Atlases plays as the arena has a blue glow to it. Tyler Hiroko comes out from behind the curtain and out onto the ramp. He looks out into the crowd and walks slowly down to the ring ignoring all the fans. As he reaches the ring he slides under the bottom rope and into the ring. Tyler stands up and walks over to the corner and stands on the middle rope while holding his arms out to the sides. He then jumps off the ropes and waits for the match to begin
Stevie Jackson: Introducing secondly, hailing from the Grand Rapids MI he is Tyler Hiroko!
The fans boo.
Patrick Moore speaks to both men before signalling for the bell to be rang and the match begins. The two men rush into the middle of the ring to stand eye to eye with each other.
John Smith: You can almost feel tension in this match.
The two men stare at each other before Tyler swings his right hand for a sneaky attack. TJ blocks however and gives Tyler a right hand, and another, and another. TJ irish whips Tyler at the ropes and on the return delivers a superkick right to the chin of Tyler. TJ puts his hands up and the fans cheer. TJ now uses the ropes himself to hit a springboard moonsault but Tyler rolls out of the way.
Kash: Tyler needed to get out of the way of that one.
Tyler and TJ both get back to their feet and TJ nails Tyler with a clothesline. TJ throws a few punches at Tyler before lifting him up and hitting the Canadian Combo. TJ hooks Tylers leg.
John Smith: 1 .. 2 . Oh! I thought that was going to do it.
TJ now stomps on Tyler before positioning him for a reverse DDT which he hits. TJ now hits a T-bone suplex before covering Tyler but only getting a 2 count. TJ pulls Tyler to his feet before irish whipping him at the ropes. Tyler bounces off and hits a enzuguri however.
John Smith: Wow what a kick and right to the side of the head. We'll see how this match pans out right after this commercial break.
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
John Smith: As we return from the break Tyler Hiroko has now taken full control of this match.
Tyler now has TJ in a DDT position and taunts to the fans who boo loudly. Tyler drops the DDT and quickly covers TJ.
Kash: What a DDT! His neck almost snapped. 1 .. 2 .. Oh so close.
Tyler pounds his fists on the ground in frustration before lifting TJ up and hitting a huge bulldog. Tyler goes over to the turnbuckle and climbs to the top rope. TJ quickly jumps up though and runs swiftly over to the same turnbuckle. TJ pulls Tyler down using his arm and then transitions this into the SCREAM!
John Smith: Oh he's got the scream locked in. Tyler will have to make it to the ropes or break this hold and fast.
Tyler crawls in agony and reaches for the bottom rope. TJ tries to pull him back into the center of the ring but Tyler kicks him away. TJ runs back at him but Tyler hits a swinging neckbreaker. Tyler quickly pulls TJ into the position for the Blackout but TJ crawls through his legs and hits a reverse DDT. TJ lifts Tyler up and hits the Natural Selection.
John Smith: The Natural Selection! This one's got to be over, TJ Black covers Hiroko and 1 2 3. He's done it!
TJ instantly lifts his arms high into the air as the bell rings and the fans cheer.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner, TJ Black!
TJ leaves the ring and exits up the ramp with his head held high.
Winner - TJ Black
John Smith: Wow what a match and we still have more to come.
Kash: Oh yes we do! And hopefully one of my picks might actually win. So far neither has but hopefully Patrick Steel will come up trumps for me.
The camera again shows Mr Kane Harlow who looks a little more pleased with what he is watching on the television.
“To Hell With Good Intentions” hits over the PA and the crowd erupts in a chorus of boos. Patrick Steel steps out from behind the curtain with his hands to his side, as if he welcomes the boos. He walks toward the ring with a smile on his face, responding to the crowds jeers as he does. When he reaches the ring, Steel rolls under the bottom rope and goes to the center of the ring with his hands held high as the boos continue to pour down.
The lights dim to a black as “The Night” by Disturbed hit’s the PA System, in which after they cut on to a spotlight, where Trinity sits in a throne wearing white trench coat and black pants, he then stands up which causes a pyro to go off. He then walks slowly to the ring where he steps in and eyes his opponent.
Stevie Jackson: The following match is schedules for one fall. Introducing first he is The Powder Keg Patrick Steel. And his opponent he is Trinity Joe Michaels.
John Smith: Well this should be a good match right here.
Brian Griffin has a quick word with both men before signalling for the match to begin. The two men face in the middle before locking up. They both fight for leverage until breaking suddenly. They lock up again but again break after a while of struggling. Patrick Steel puts his arms up for the test of strength and Trinity obliges. Steel kicks Trinity in the mid section though to which the fans boo at. Steel now whips Trinity at the rope and hits a sidewalk slam on the return. Steel covers.
Kash: 1 .. 2, no I thought he was going to have it early.
Steel now hits a fisherman suplex followed by a belly-to-back to keep Trinity grounded. Steel pounds down on Trinity before lifting him into a headlock. Trinity, with the help of the fans cheering, begins to fight out from the headlock and hits a neckbreaker.
John Smith: Wow what a neckbreaker! Can Trinity take the advantage?
Trinity returns to his feet and hits a swinging neckbreaker. Trinity lifts Steel before htting an arm trap german suplex. He now sets Steel up for the Inspiration Killer but Steel drops out of it and hits a flying crossbody.
John Smith: Both men are down at the moment but who can reach their feet first?
The two both reach their feet at the same time at trade blows in the center of the ring. Both bounce off of the ropes but Trinity ducks the shining wizard and hits the Kiss of Destruction.
Kash: The Kiss of Destruction! That could really finish off Steel.
Trinity does not cover Steel though and instead lifts him to his feet. Trinity now delivers and assault of chops and kicks harshly to Steel before bouncing to and from the ropes.
John Smith: He's going for the End Game! But no Patrick Steel dodges and could it be Total Carnage?
Trinity fights out of the Total Carnage and again hits another assault of chops and kicks. He bounces from the ropes and swings his leg but Steel grabs hold. Steel knocks down Trinity and locks in the Steel Trap.
Kash: The Steel Trap! This will deffinately do it.
Trinity tries to crawl towards the ropes but Steel makes sure he's going nowhere and has a sick smile on his face. Trinity is forced to tap out and the bell rings. Steel keeps the Steel Trap locked in for a little longer whilst the fans boo before finally releasing it.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner Patrick Steel!
Steel leaves the arena with his hands held up as the fans boo and curse him all the way up the ramp.
Winner - Patrick Steel
The camera shows Mr Kane Harlow once more now with a smile on his face.
John Smith: Well what a great match and we still have an even bigger one left to come.
Kash: It most certainly was John and now I'm just buzzing for this Main Event.
John Smith: So am I but I am being told now that we are going to a live interview with Gregg Roberts.
Gregg Roberts: I am here live with the man who has just beaten Trinity Joe Michaels. I have just one question for you Patrick Steel. Are you not worried that since you have just fought in a match it will give you a disadvantage of being more tired and worn than the other competitors.
Patrick Steel: (long and hard breaths) ... (long and hard breaths) ... no ... (long and hard breaths)
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
John Smith: We welcome you back to what is a possibly changed arena from what you last saw and we already have 5 of the 6 competitors in the ring and ready for their match.
The arena is now filled with tables, ladders and chairs. Chairs surround the ring with tables lying flat underneath them, ladders are stood up all the way down the ramp and there is a 6 table pyramid right infront of the ring. Each man in the ring is holding a folded up chair and hung high above is the Television Championship belt. The sound of footsteps in the rain is heard as Jaeger O'Meara steps out and heads down to the ring. On his way he collapses a steel chair and carries it into the ring with him.
Kash: Their all here John and it looks like it's gonna be chair mayhem to start with.
Brian Griffin and Patrick Moore speak to all of the men in the ring before moving onto the outside and letting the bell be rung. All the men look around at each other with their chairs poised until Jaeger O'Meara strikes. Suddenly all of the men are moving around the ring swinging their chairs as the sound of crashing and banging fills the arena. Patrick Steel drops out of the ring and heads up the ramp.
John Smith: It looks like it's going to be Patrick Steel to make the first big move.
Jaeger swings his chair and knocks both Jordan Moss and Joe Michaels out of the ring.
Kash: There goes Trinity and Moss courtesy of the big man.
TJ Black and Tyler Hiroko then both hit a shot with their chairs on Jaeger who then drops out of the ring. TJ and Tyler then face each other and drop the chairs. They spend a short time trading blows before Patrick Steel is back in the ring to knock them both out with a huge ladder. Steel then turns and knocks Trinity off of the ring apron. He looks around before setting up the ladder and making a quick break for the championship.
John Smith: It could be over this soon with Patrick Steel making a promising reach for the championship gold.
Jordan Moss slides into the ring however and grabs the bottom of the ladder. Steel looks down and then shakes his head in a pleading way to stop Moss. Moss takes no notice and pushes the ladder sending Steel crashing down through the table of pyramids.
John Smith: Oh my god! He must have fell over 20 feet!
Kash: Well, there goes my pick.
The fans instantly begin a 'Holy Sh*t' chant around the arena as Moss makes his own attempt for the gold. Jaeger O'Meara is back now and pulls Moss down from the ladder. Jaeger then sets Moss up for and hits the Jaeger Bomb.
John Smith: The Jaeger Bomb! The Jaeger Bomb! That must have hurt.
Trinity slides back into the ring now and over to Jaeger. He hits a series of chops and shots before a huge knee-kick to the skull.
Kash: And the End Game!
TJ and Tyler now pull Trinity out of the ring and deliver a few straight shots to the skull. Trinity fights back though and hits both their heads against the announce table. He grabs a table and then sets it up inside the ring before rolling Jaeger onto it. Jaeger fights off of it though. Outside the ring, TJ and Tyler fight on top of the announce table whilst inside Jaeger climbs the ladder. They both realise and rush into the ring. They hit and pull him on his way up and then deliver a double power bomb through the table to him.
John Smith: What a Power Bomb, straight through the table!
Jordan Moss fecthes another ladder from up the ramp whilst TJ and Tyler race each other to the top of theirs. The two reach the top and deliver right and left hands to each other. Now, Moss is at the top of his and all three swap blows and shots whilst Trinity makes his way up.
Kash: All four men now on top of the ladder, all fighting for the championship.
Tyler now grabs ahold of Moss and locks in SCREAM! Whilst Trinity locks in the Koji Clutch on Tyler.
John Smith: A Koji Clutch and Scream on top of a ladder! What next?
The men with the submissions locked in stretch and strain to uild the pressure whilst the other two fight out with punches and kicks. Jaeger now rolls back into the ring and stands in between both ladders. He pushes both ladders and leaves them leaning whilst the four men on top struggle to keep balanced. Jaeger pushes them more and sends them toppling and all four men over the top ropes and onto the steel chairs set up around the ring.
Kash: And that's it. this has got to be Jaeger's now.
The fans start another 'Holy Sh*t' chant along with a 'This is awesome!' Jaeger moves out of the ring to get another ladder and the camera shows Patrick Steel doing some small movements.
John Smith: And that's the first movement we've seen from Patrick Steel but can he get on his feet in time to stop Jaeger O'Meara?
Jaeger O'Meara has now set up and is climbing the ladder in the centre of the ring. He is slow and worn from the strenuous activity of pushing the other four off. Patrick Steel now springboards from the ropes and onto the ladder higher up than Jaeger. The two race to the top but meet each other at the same time.
Kash: Is this it? Is one of these men going to leave the Television Champion?
Jaeger now swings his right hand for Steel but Steel ducks. Jaeger tries to reach Steel with his leg through the ladder but misses. Steel pulls on Jaeger's leg though and Jaeger drops hanging on by only one leg. Steel climbs to the top and claims the Television Championship. He holds it high in the arena as the fans applaud yet still boo him.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner and new ICW Television Champion, Patrick Steel!
Patrick Steel leaves the arena smiling yet worn out holding up the championship belt.
Winner - Patrick Steel
John Smith: Well what a match and what a night!
Kash: It most certainly has been a great night and I'm sure International Championship Wrestling will have a hell of a lot more nights like this to come!
John Smith: Oh we most certainly will and if you would like to see more action from these stars then make sure you head over to the Showdown arena to see the very first episode of Saturday Night Showdown!

Roleplays
Patrick Steel
Part 1: The Birth of a Monster
December, 1994
A 7-year-old Patrick Steel sits in a living room lit only by a small television set watching late night reruns. The canned laughter of a sitcom can be heard as Patrick sits cross-legged on the couch, a bag of animal crackers next to him. The unmistakable sound of a howling blizzard is heard outside, causing the TV signal to cut out every now and again. Screaming can be heard from somewhere in the house, sometimes so loud that the TV can hardly be heard. Most of the screaming is being done by a man, but every so often a woman’s voice can be heard. None of these distractions seem to be fazing Patrick, who is apparently used to these sorts of things. The show goes on, along with the blizzard and the arguing, but Patrick doesn’t flinch at all, expect to grab another handful of animal crackers. Time goes by and the show comes to an end as Patrick’s eyelids start to become heavy. He fights to stay awake, but he’s clearly outmatched. The screaming dies down for a few minutes and Patrick’s eyes close, his hand still in the bag of animal crackers. The channel on the TV goes off air and the house is quite for a short time.
Out of the night, two deafening BANGS ring out within 10 seconds of each other. Patrick’s eyes open, his breaths short and heavily. The fear on is face is the first emotion he’s shown all night. He looks around, trying to determine the source of the sounds. An eerie, almost heavy-feeling quite hangs in the air, Patrick’s breathing the only thing that can slice through it. He stands up and licks his lips nervously as he slowly, cautiously walks in the direction the sounds came from. Patrick heads up the stairs and turns down the hallway. He heads toward a door at the end of the hall, a light can be seen at the bottom of it. As he reaches the door, Patrick knocks twice, very softly. No answer. He knocks twice more, a little louder. No answer. A few deep breaths to gather some courage and Patrick reaches for the doorknob. One more deep breath and he turn the knob, light fills the hallway.
“Mommy….?”
To Be Continued…
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Present Day
Patrick stands outside a smallish house in Buffalo, New York, an empty look on his face. He walks to the front door, a sign reading “Vacant” nailed to it. Clearly nervous and angry, Patrick slowly reaches for the doorknob. He hesitates at first, then pulls his hand away completely. Overcome with emotion, Patrick punches the door. Patrick pulls his hand out of the hole he’s punched in the door, a stream of blood coming out of two of his knuckles. He screams at the top of his lungs before turning around, the empty look back on his face. A look up and down the street tells Patrick that no one has seen or heard him. He heads toward the street and to his car, turning around for one last look at the house before he gets in and speeds away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In an empty parking lot outside of an abandoned warehouse, Patrick adds another empty beer can to the pile already forming at his feet. He reaches into the case next to him on the hood of the car and pops open another before sitting cross-legged on the asphalt and leaning against his car. Patrick takes a big gulp of his beer, sighs, and looks to the sky.
Hi there Trinity, do you know who I am? Most people call me Patrick Steel, and for now, that’s what you’ll call me as well. After Saturday night, though, you’ll be calling me your worst nightmare. I know nothing about your Trinity, but I don’t need to know anything to know that you’re the lesser man in this match. When you’ve seen the things that I’ve seen and been through the things that I’ve been through, a wrestling match against someone who goes by “Trinity” isn’t something that frightens you. Do you know what pain is, Trinity? Not physical pain, though you’ll find out what that is on Saturday night. You’ll probably go through enough pain in that single night to last most men a lifetime, I can guarantee you that. But that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about that though. I’m talking about emotion pain, mental anguish. Have you ever experienced that Trinity? I have. More than you’ll ever know. More than you could ever imagine. And that is the reason I know I can defeat you with ease, Trinity. You don’t have the fire burning inside of you that I do. You don’t know how to channel pain and anguish like I do. I can’t wait either, because I’ve got so much built up inside me right now, I just can’t wait to unleash if on you. Get ready for the beating of your life, Trinity. Nothing you can do to me could compare to what I’ve been through. Try as hard as you want to stop me, Trinity, I’ll just keep coming. You won’t be able to stop me because you can’t stop me, it’s impossible. Well, I’ve wasted enough time on you already. I’ll see you Saturday night, Trinity.
Patrick gives a sick smile before finishing off his been in one gulp and chucks the can off into the distance. He spreads his arms and falls back. The last image we see is of Patrick lying on his back in the parking lot, surrounded by empty beer cans.
TJ Black
The sound of the customers buying drinks and dancing the night away can be heard from outside of the club. The Bartender is constantly rushed off his alternating between cleaning up, pouring pints and collecting the glasses… The rush of the nightlife, the power of the bass pumping away, the colours of the lighting, the white walls reflecting back the pink, blue, red and green lights… The dart board with a picture of Tyler Hiroko nailed to it. A dart gets thrown and it hits the Triple 20. Right in between the eyes… A second and third quickly follow each nailing the Triple 20.
TJ Black: Hmm… 180… again.
TJ walks over to the Dart board and picks out all 3 darts he lays them down on his table and sits down sipping away at his pint. He slowly places the pint of lager back on the table before speaking.
TJ Black: Tyler Hiroko. How you doing? I know you’re at home preparing for this Sunday when ICW presents “The Big Bang” live on PPV. It will be the first ever airing of International Championship Wrestling and what better way to draw a crow then to hold a grudge match where I can kick your damn head off… Have you ever sustained an injury Tyler? Do you know what it feels like to climb a 20 foot ladder with broken ribs? Do you know what it’s like to lose complete feeling in your arms rendering you helpless as you watch me pull down that championship? Tyler Hiroko do you know what it feels like to fall 30 foot onto the outside? No? That’s interesting because I do... This isn’t my first Ladder Match and it won’t be my last but I’m not here to talk about that… Tyler Hiroko, I’m here to talk about the rematch. The battle of two of the greatest professional athletes to ever grace a ring, the second round everyone has been waiting for. The return match between the coward… and the better man…
TJ finishes off his pint before gesturing for a second to the bartender.
TJ Black: Sure I hate you as a person, you and I may you have different methods of winning but I can’t argue with your results. You were undefeated over in UPW… But then again being undefeated in a bingo hall is like being the best footballer in kindergarten. Tyler I hate you for one reason and one reason only: You beat me and when I asked for a rematch you fled because deep down inside you knew that it was a fluke! You got lucky. I almost crushed you’re ribs when I put you through that announce! You almost broke your neck when you went for that suicide dive! It took you everything you had to defeat me and had I not been as kind you would still be nursing an injury in hospital. You felt the pain I put you through and you took your pay check and bolted! But you are a terrible, terrible hider. And I am one of the best seekers in this goddamn game. I found you and now you pay the ultimate price. Because our match this Sunday won’t be a wrestling match, it will be a brawl. It will be dangerous, it will be painful and it will be the end of your career. But most of all it will be my ultimate revenge. There’s an old saying that Revenge is a dish best served cold and you know what I’m feel pretty cold-blooded at this moment. And I’m just waiting for that moment. That moment when I get crush you in the middle of that ring and leave you for dead
.
Looking out onto the dance floor he watches as families, couples, friends and even loners danced to the dark beats and bright lights. He watched as one by one the security threw out a few idiots who were looking for a fight. He watched as that woman broke down into tears. And he watched as that guys collapsed because he had too much to drink…
TJ Black: This is my only luxury. Knowing that despite ever changing lives and competitions that this place will never change, knowing that once I enter here the music, the lights, the drunken ass wholes, the ridiculously sensitive woman who breaks down and cries whenever she passes her limit and the awesome guy who collapses to everyone’s entertainment… It’s nothing new to me and that is just what you are. You are a pathetic excuse for a man; apathetic excuse for a WRESTLER; a pathetic excuse for a human being. Tyler Hiroko you are nothing more than a waste of skin and come Sunday I will rectify the mistake you’re parents made when I rid this world and this company of the cancer that is Tyler Hiroko. This Sunday it is the biggest fight of your life when you enter the ring with this rabid animal.
TJ quickly launches one of the darts at the dart board and it impales the picture of Tyler into the board as a crack appears in the board. TJ just scoffs and downs the rest of his pint…
TJ Black: You see the difference between you and I is that everything you’ve ever spouted was nothing more than a huge bile of BS whilst I’ve spoken truth. I said I was great on the microphone and I proved it when I left you in my shadow. I said I was the perfect mix of Stone Cold Steve Austin, of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, of the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels and I will prove that this Sunday when I go 2:0 in both our matches. And finally I said was the great wrestler to ever grace a professional wrestling ring and I am damn certain that I can pin anyone be it you, Joe, Patrick, Jordan, Jaeger; Hell I would knock Kane Harlow’s teeth down is throat if I had to… But there is ONE similarity between us Tyler Hiroko and that’s that we were smart enough to jump-ship BEFORE that bingo hall went under. But you made a fatal mistake; you never covered you’re tracks, I followed you, I challenged you, and Kane Harlow made it official and this Sunday… I’m gonna bury you!
TJ Black walks out of the bar slapping $300 on the bar as he walks by and gets into a car before driving off into the distance
Results
THE BIG BANG
14th August 2011, Madison Square Garden Arena, 21,365 in attendance
The camera spans around the arena to show all seats and standing postitions taken by excited fans awaiting the unknown. Home-made signs are being held up all around the arena by the vast majority of the audience. All sorts of phrases are scrawled onto the signs ranging from 'Jaeger O'Meara' to 'BOOM!' and even one saying 'The women infront has a great rack'. The buzz of the fans fills the arena as the lights dim and drop.
Announcer: 10 ... 9 ... 8 .
The fans join in so the countdown booms throughout the arena.
Announcer: ..7 ... 6 ... 5 ..
Some fans now cheer and stand on their feet.
Announcer: . 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1
The first verse of Barenaked Ladies 'The Big Bang' now begins to play throughout the arena as some fans cheer and sing-a-long whilst others become slightly confused yet still anxious. The verse finishes and the words 'It all started with the big bang!' blast over the PA system.
Suddenly two huge fireworks shoot down and hit the stage at the top of the ramp sending it ablaze. Lights flash all around the arena as seemingly hundreds of fireworks zoom around the arena and flames set alight here there and everywhere. Finally the arena becomes still and quiet as the very smooth voice of announcer Stevie Jackson starts over the microphone.
Stevie Jackson: Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, myself and the whole of International Championship Wrestling take pleasure in introducing you to The Big Bang!
Fans cheer and raise the roof around the arena.
Stevie Jackson: We are proud to be here tonight in Madison Square Garden!
Fans cheer again.
Stevie Jackson: With 21,365 in attendance!
Fans cheer once more.
Stevie Jackson: And now without further a due, lets get ready to RUMBLE!
The fans go wild at this as 'Back In Black' hits over the PA system. Mr Kane Harlow now steps out from behind the curtains on to the stage and puts his hands up to all of the fans. He pauses to take in what he has created before taking a deep breath and making his way cockily to the ring. The fans give him and huge ovation as he reaches the ring and climbs inside.
Mr Kane Harlow: Too long ... too long it has been since I stepped foot into a wrestling ring. But boy am I glad to be back!
The fans cheer for the owner.
Mr Kane Harlow: When I first suggested this idea to my business partners and family they thought I had gone insane. 'A good wrestling federation, nowadays?' 'You must be kidding?' I never joke, I never kid, I do what I want. I said to them 'No I won't make a good wrestling federation ... I will make a perfect wrestling federation. And here you all are tonight to support the start of something great which is International Championship Wrestling!
The fans clap and cheer.
Mr Kane Harlow: And when I suggested the idea of having my first event starring just 6 superstars. Well they thought I'd gone crazier than ever. However, I am very sane and very serious ... but not stupid. You see I see way too many federations giving out a world championship on there first night and quite frankly think that that is insanity. Therefore tonight I have put together a small, short and sweet card featuring 3 singles matches to show you exactly what skills my superstars have and then for out main event we are going to see a 6 man tables, ladders and chairs match for the Television Championship to show you exactly what International Championship Wrestling is all about!
The fans errupt into a cheer and a 'HARLOW HARLOW HARLOW' chant breaks out.
Mr Kane Harlow: So guys I just need to know one thing. ARE YOU READY?
Tha fans scream out.
Mr Kane Harlow: I said, ARE YOU READY?
The fans sream even louder.
Mr Kane Harlow: Then I officially welcome you to International Championship Wrestling and declare this show is officially on the road!
The fans cheer as 'Back In Black' hits once more and Mr Kane Harlow begins to leave the ring.
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
As the break ends Jaeger O'Meara is already standing in the ring awaiting his opponent.
"How I Could Just Kill A Man" by Rage Against The Machine hits the speaker system, the vocals come in, and Jordan Moss steps through the curtain, adorned in a black sweatshirt, hood up, with the word "Kinslayer"on the back. Jordan stays focused on the ring, but quickly glances out at the crowd, nodding towards them. He rolls out his neck and begins the walk down the aisle, slapping the hands of a few fans along the way, never diverting his gaze from the opposite corner of the ring. Moss slides into the ring, and begins to bounce and hop in place, keeping his wind up. J-Mo removes his sweatshirt, as he awaits the start of the match.
Stevie Jackson: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is a singles match. Introducing first, he weighed in this morning at 292 pounds and stands at 6 feet and 7 inches, he is Jaeger O'Meara. And introducing secondly, he weighed in this morning at 201 pounds and stands at 5 feet and 11 inches, he is Jordan Moss.
Brian Griffin, the senior match official, beckons both to the center of the ring before giving some instructions and sending them off to the turnbuckles. The bell is rang and the match begins.
John Smith: Ladies and Gentlemen this is our first time to talk to you tonight as this match begins. I am John Smith and sitting beside me is Kash Jones. What do you think to this one Kash?
Kash: Well you know there both very different styles but I'm gonna have to go with the height and power on this one.
The two superstars are in a lock up now and fighting for the advantage. Jaeger uses his height and power to push back Moss into a turnbuckle now and hits some body shots. Moss ducks under one of the blows and moves out of the corner. Jaeger turns around to a huge kick to his thigh and one to his ribs.
John Smith: What a sound! I can almost feel those kicks!
Moss now irish whips Jaeger into the ropes but Jaeger comes back to hit a huge clothesline. Jaeger goes for the cover but barely gets a two count. Jaeger now pulls Moss to his feet and hits a scoop slam. Jaeger pulls Moss up again and hit a sidewlak slam before going for the cover. 1, 2 but Moss kicks out.
Kash: Jaeger O'Meara is looking for a quick win here John, I can just sense that it may be over soon.
Jaeger lifts Moss up again but Moss take Jaegers legs out from underneath him. Moss quickly rolls Jaeger up. 1,2,3. Moss steals it and quickly exits the ring to leave a very annoyed Jaeger.
John Smith: Well I certainly didn't see that one coming but you have to expect the unexpected here in the ICW.
Kash: Well I thought for sure O'Meara was going to have that but I'm sure they'll be some revenge some time.
Winner - Jordan Moss
The camera now fades to Mr Kane Harlow sitting in his office watching the television. His face turns to absolute disgust as what he has just seen and he shakes his head disapprovingly.
John Smith: Well thats our first match down but theres loads more to come tonight as we're only just getting started.
Kash: Why yes we are John, why yes we are. We've still got two singles matches to come along with a huge main event.
John Smith: And coming right up next we've got a singles match with the two superstars holding a huge grudge.
The First Verse of "Scream" by Adelitas Way plays as smoke fills the arena and the camera looks around into the crowd zooming in on several Black fans and signs. When Rick DeJesus sings the first "I CAN MAKE YOU SCREAM!" A shadow emerges from the smoke and TJ Black is shown in a black jacket he uses Edge's Pyro in tribute before sprinting down to the iring and sliding in like Evan Bourne. Once in the ring he runs to a random Turnbuckle and leaps to the top rope before back flipping off and landing on his feet. He then awaits his opponent.
Stevie Jackson: Introducing first, hailing from Toronto, Canada TJ Black!
The fans cheer.
"Artichokes" by Maps and Atlases plays as the arena has a blue glow to it. Tyler Hiroko comes out from behind the curtain and out onto the ramp. He looks out into the crowd and walks slowly down to the ring ignoring all the fans. As he reaches the ring he slides under the bottom rope and into the ring. Tyler stands up and walks over to the corner and stands on the middle rope while holding his arms out to the sides. He then jumps off the ropes and waits for the match to begin
Stevie Jackson: Introducing secondly, hailing from the Grand Rapids MI he is Tyler Hiroko!
The fans boo.
Patrick Moore speaks to both men before signalling for the bell to be rang and the match begins. The two men rush into the middle of the ring to stand eye to eye with each other.
John Smith: You can almost feel tension in this match.
The two men stare at each other before Tyler swings his right hand for a sneaky attack. TJ blocks however and gives Tyler a right hand, and another, and another. TJ irish whips Tyler at the ropes and on the return delivers a superkick right to the chin of Tyler. TJ puts his hands up and the fans cheer. TJ now uses the ropes himself to hit a springboard moonsault but Tyler rolls out of the way.
Kash: Tyler needed to get out of the way of that one.
Tyler and TJ both get back to their feet and TJ nails Tyler with a clothesline. TJ throws a few punches at Tyler before lifting him up and hitting the Canadian Combo. TJ hooks Tylers leg.
John Smith: 1 .. 2 . Oh! I thought that was going to do it.
TJ now stomps on Tyler before positioning him for a reverse DDT which he hits. TJ now hits a T-bone suplex before covering Tyler but only getting a 2 count. TJ pulls Tyler to his feet before irish whipping him at the ropes. Tyler bounces off and hits a enzuguri however.
John Smith: Wow what a kick and right to the side of the head. We'll see how this match pans out right after this commercial break.
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
John Smith: As we return from the break Tyler Hiroko has now taken full control of this match.
Tyler now has TJ in a DDT position and taunts to the fans who boo loudly. Tyler drops the DDT and quickly covers TJ.
Kash: What a DDT! His neck almost snapped. 1 .. 2 .. Oh so close.
Tyler pounds his fists on the ground in frustration before lifting TJ up and hitting a huge bulldog. Tyler goes over to the turnbuckle and climbs to the top rope. TJ quickly jumps up though and runs swiftly over to the same turnbuckle. TJ pulls Tyler down using his arm and then transitions this into the SCREAM!
John Smith: Oh he's got the scream locked in. Tyler will have to make it to the ropes or break this hold and fast.
Tyler crawls in agony and reaches for the bottom rope. TJ tries to pull him back into the center of the ring but Tyler kicks him away. TJ runs back at him but Tyler hits a swinging neckbreaker. Tyler quickly pulls TJ into the position for the Blackout but TJ crawls through his legs and hits a reverse DDT. TJ lifts Tyler up and hits the Natural Selection.
John Smith: The Natural Selection! This one's got to be over, TJ Black covers Hiroko and 1 2 3. He's done it!
TJ instantly lifts his arms high into the air as the bell rings and the fans cheer.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner, TJ Black!
TJ leaves the ring and exits up the ramp with his head held high.
Winner - TJ Black
John Smith: Wow what a match and we still have more to come.
Kash: Oh yes we do! And hopefully one of my picks might actually win. So far neither has but hopefully Patrick Steel will come up trumps for me.
The camera again shows Mr Kane Harlow who looks a little more pleased with what he is watching on the television.
“To Hell With Good Intentions” hits over the PA and the crowd erupts in a chorus of boos. Patrick Steel steps out from behind the curtain with his hands to his side, as if he welcomes the boos. He walks toward the ring with a smile on his face, responding to the crowds jeers as he does. When he reaches the ring, Steel rolls under the bottom rope and goes to the center of the ring with his hands held high as the boos continue to pour down.
The lights dim to a black as “The Night” by Disturbed hit’s the PA System, in which after they cut on to a spotlight, where Trinity sits in a throne wearing white trench coat and black pants, he then stands up which causes a pyro to go off. He then walks slowly to the ring where he steps in and eyes his opponent.
Stevie Jackson: The following match is schedules for one fall. Introducing first he is The Powder Keg Patrick Steel. And his opponent he is Trinity Joe Michaels.
John Smith: Well this should be a good match right here.
Brian Griffin has a quick word with both men before signalling for the match to begin. The two men face in the middle before locking up. They both fight for leverage until breaking suddenly. They lock up again but again break after a while of struggling. Patrick Steel puts his arms up for the test of strength and Trinity obliges. Steel kicks Trinity in the mid section though to which the fans boo at. Steel now whips Trinity at the rope and hits a sidewalk slam on the return. Steel covers.
Kash: 1 .. 2, no I thought he was going to have it early.
Steel now hits a fisherman suplex followed by a belly-to-back to keep Trinity grounded. Steel pounds down on Trinity before lifting him into a headlock. Trinity, with the help of the fans cheering, begins to fight out from the headlock and hits a neckbreaker.
John Smith: Wow what a neckbreaker! Can Trinity take the advantage?
Trinity returns to his feet and hits a swinging neckbreaker. Trinity lifts Steel before htting an arm trap german suplex. He now sets Steel up for the Inspiration Killer but Steel drops out of it and hits a flying crossbody.
John Smith: Both men are down at the moment but who can reach their feet first?
The two both reach their feet at the same time at trade blows in the center of the ring. Both bounce off of the ropes but Trinity ducks the shining wizard and hits the Kiss of Destruction.
Kash: The Kiss of Destruction! That could really finish off Steel.
Trinity does not cover Steel though and instead lifts him to his feet. Trinity now delivers and assault of chops and kicks harshly to Steel before bouncing to and from the ropes.
John Smith: He's going for the End Game! But no Patrick Steel dodges and could it be Total Carnage?
Trinity fights out of the Total Carnage and again hits another assault of chops and kicks. He bounces from the ropes and swings his leg but Steel grabs hold. Steel knocks down Trinity and locks in the Steel Trap.
Kash: The Steel Trap! This will deffinately do it.
Trinity tries to crawl towards the ropes but Steel makes sure he's going nowhere and has a sick smile on his face. Trinity is forced to tap out and the bell rings. Steel keeps the Steel Trap locked in for a little longer whilst the fans boo before finally releasing it.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner Patrick Steel!
Steel leaves the arena with his hands held up as the fans boo and curse him all the way up the ramp.
Winner - Patrick Steel
The camera shows Mr Kane Harlow once more now with a smile on his face.
John Smith: Well what a great match and we still have an even bigger one left to come.
Kash: It most certainly was John and now I'm just buzzing for this Main Event.
John Smith: So am I but I am being told now that we are going to a live interview with Gregg Roberts.
Gregg Roberts: I am here live with the man who has just beaten Trinity Joe Michaels. I have just one question for you Patrick Steel. Are you not worried that since you have just fought in a match it will give you a disadvantage of being more tired and worn than the other competitors.
Patrick Steel: (long and hard breaths) ... (long and hard breaths) ... no ... (long and hard breaths)
----- International Championship Wrestling cuts to a commercial break -----
John Smith: We welcome you back to what is a possibly changed arena from what you last saw and we already have 5 of the 6 competitors in the ring and ready for their match.
The arena is now filled with tables, ladders and chairs. Chairs surround the ring with tables lying flat underneath them, ladders are stood up all the way down the ramp and there is a 6 table pyramid right infront of the ring. Each man in the ring is holding a folded up chair and hung high above is the Television Championship belt. The sound of footsteps in the rain is heard as Jaeger O'Meara steps out and heads down to the ring. On his way he collapses a steel chair and carries it into the ring with him.
Kash: Their all here John and it looks like it's gonna be chair mayhem to start with.
Brian Griffin and Patrick Moore speak to all of the men in the ring before moving onto the outside and letting the bell be rung. All the men look around at each other with their chairs poised until Jaeger O'Meara strikes. Suddenly all of the men are moving around the ring swinging their chairs as the sound of crashing and banging fills the arena. Patrick Steel drops out of the ring and heads up the ramp.
John Smith: It looks like it's going to be Patrick Steel to make the first big move.
Jaeger swings his chair and knocks both Jordan Moss and Joe Michaels out of the ring.
Kash: There goes Trinity and Moss courtesy of the big man.
TJ Black and Tyler Hiroko then both hit a shot with their chairs on Jaeger who then drops out of the ring. TJ and Tyler then face each other and drop the chairs. They spend a short time trading blows before Patrick Steel is back in the ring to knock them both out with a huge ladder. Steel then turns and knocks Trinity off of the ring apron. He looks around before setting up the ladder and making a quick break for the championship.
John Smith: It could be over this soon with Patrick Steel making a promising reach for the championship gold.
Jordan Moss slides into the ring however and grabs the bottom of the ladder. Steel looks down and then shakes his head in a pleading way to stop Moss. Moss takes no notice and pushes the ladder sending Steel crashing down through the table of pyramids.
John Smith: Oh my god! He must have fell over 20 feet!
Kash: Well, there goes my pick.
The fans instantly begin a 'Holy Sh*t' chant around the arena as Moss makes his own attempt for the gold. Jaeger O'Meara is back now and pulls Moss down from the ladder. Jaeger then sets Moss up for and hits the Jaeger Bomb.
John Smith: The Jaeger Bomb! The Jaeger Bomb! That must have hurt.
Trinity slides back into the ring now and over to Jaeger. He hits a series of chops and shots before a huge knee-kick to the skull.
Kash: And the End Game!
TJ and Tyler now pull Trinity out of the ring and deliver a few straight shots to the skull. Trinity fights back though and hits both their heads against the announce table. He grabs a table and then sets it up inside the ring before rolling Jaeger onto it. Jaeger fights off of it though. Outside the ring, TJ and Tyler fight on top of the announce table whilst inside Jaeger climbs the ladder. They both realise and rush into the ring. They hit and pull him on his way up and then deliver a double power bomb through the table to him.
John Smith: What a Power Bomb, straight through the table!
Jordan Moss fecthes another ladder from up the ramp whilst TJ and Tyler race each other to the top of theirs. The two reach the top and deliver right and left hands to each other. Now, Moss is at the top of his and all three swap blows and shots whilst Trinity makes his way up.
Kash: All four men now on top of the ladder, all fighting for the championship.
Tyler now grabs ahold of Moss and locks in SCREAM! Whilst Trinity locks in the Koji Clutch on Tyler.
John Smith: A Koji Clutch and Scream on top of a ladder! What next?
The men with the submissions locked in stretch and strain to uild the pressure whilst the other two fight out with punches and kicks. Jaeger now rolls back into the ring and stands in between both ladders. He pushes both ladders and leaves them leaning whilst the four men on top struggle to keep balanced. Jaeger pushes them more and sends them toppling and all four men over the top ropes and onto the steel chairs set up around the ring.
Kash: And that's it. this has got to be Jaeger's now.
The fans start another 'Holy Sh*t' chant along with a 'This is awesome!' Jaeger moves out of the ring to get another ladder and the camera shows Patrick Steel doing some small movements.
John Smith: And that's the first movement we've seen from Patrick Steel but can he get on his feet in time to stop Jaeger O'Meara?
Jaeger O'Meara has now set up and is climbing the ladder in the centre of the ring. He is slow and worn from the strenuous activity of pushing the other four off. Patrick Steel now springboards from the ropes and onto the ladder higher up than Jaeger. The two race to the top but meet each other at the same time.
Kash: Is this it? Is one of these men going to leave the Television Champion?
Jaeger now swings his right hand for Steel but Steel ducks. Jaeger tries to reach Steel with his leg through the ladder but misses. Steel pulls on Jaeger's leg though and Jaeger drops hanging on by only one leg. Steel climbs to the top and claims the Television Championship. He holds it high in the arena as the fans applaud yet still boo him.
Stevie Jackson: Here is your winner and new ICW Television Champion, Patrick Steel!
Patrick Steel leaves the arena smiling yet worn out holding up the championship belt.
Winner - Patrick Steel
John Smith: Well what a match and what a night!
Kash: It most certainly has been a great night and I'm sure International Championship Wrestling will have a hell of a lot more nights like this to come!
