Hardkore World presents:

PALM SPRINGS PUNISHMENT 2012

From Hardkore Hall, Palm Springs, California

Main Event
HARDKORE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE MATCH
Steel Cage Match
KILROY EVANS vs. Tarrasque w/ "the Brain" Allen Anderson

There will be nowhere to run in the main event as Kilroy Evans defends the title against the beast, Tarrasque in a 15 foot steel cage. After a hard fought couple of matches with Snake Charmer, Tarrasque emerged as the number one contender for the Hardkore World Heavyweight title. Kilroy overcame a brutal return match against James Fierce to claim the honor of defending the championship at the biggest event of the year. Who will be Hardkore World's main man after this huge encounter?

HARDKORE AMERICA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE MATCH
Singles Match
RALLY JACKSON vs. Snake Charmer

Rally finally accomplished something which had evaded him his entire career last month in Seattle when he stole a win over Bruno and in the process claimed the Hardkore America Heavyweight title. Moving onto Palm Springs Punishment Jackson faces his next challenge: trying to keep it. Snake Charmer has impressed through his displays so far in Hardkore World and was unfortunate not to be in the main event after narrowly losing out to Tarrasque. He could still cause a major upset at Hardkore Hall and win the second highest prize in the business.

HARDKORE WEST COAST CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE MATCH
Three Way Ladder Match
ANDREW KARNAGE vs. The Shootfighter vs. Bruno

Andrew Karnage sent Syberus back behind the desk last month in Seattle and took the West Coast title from his waist with a swift and brutal Nightmare Lariot. Now he defends the belt in a three way ladder match against the Shootfighter and Bruno. Karnage will head into this match knowing he has his work cut out for him with Bruno and Shootfighter both eyeing a chance to add more gold to their resume's. Who will leave this chaotic encounter with the West Coast title in hand?

Singles Match
James Fierce vs. Bobby Nowa

Last month James Fierce fought a great match agaisnt Kilroy Evans but was unsuccessful in winning back the Hardkore World Heavyweight title. Bobby Nowa on the other hand made a winning return to Hardkore World in a four way dance. At Palm Springs Punishment the two collide; giving a huge opportunity to Bobby Nowa to rocket himself into contention for title gold while for Fierce it'll be more about getting back on the winning track.

Triple Threat Match
The Engineer vs. Marty Donovan vs. Jack Eastwood

It's a case of "he who shows, wins" as three individuals that last month had a night to forget are thrown together in a triple threat match. For Donovan and Eastwood, they were given the night off entirely for a lack of activity and the Engineer missed that cut by the skin of his teeth but went onto lose his match anyway. Each man has something to prove but who will it be on the biggest night of the Hardkore World calendar?

Singles Match
Brandon Young vs. Christian Sebastian Kennedy

In what's sure to be an entertaining match up Brandon Young makes his Hardkore America bow against the returning Christian Sebastian Kennedy. CSK made a statement about making history last month as he stunned the Seattle crowd by returning unannounced. Brandon Young has proved to be a hot prospect in other promotions and both men are likely to find the other a stern test of their abilities in this intriguing contest.

Tag Team Match
Tong Fairtex & Phantam Fairtex
vs.
Landon Cale & Gregory Dent

Tong and Phantam debuted last month as proteges of the Shootfighter. The Thailand Express step in the ring as a duo at Palm Springs Punishment looking to get a win under their belt as the tag team division in Hardkore World makes a comeback. Standing in their way are two newcomers, Landon Cale and Gregory Dent hoping to make an impact of their own.

Dark Match
"The Marine" Jeffrey Pendragon vs. Michael V. Vancent

[~Syberus~]

***CARD UPDATE:***

Fatal four way now triple threat match, Bobby Nowa vs. James Fierce added.

I realised I hadn't originally booked Bobby Nowa. Sorry Bobby.

Apologies if anyone had already started writing for the effected match.

[bruno3997]

(bruno is still upset over losing the hardkore america heavyweight but as they say when one door closes another one opens. the compton colossus finishes reading the matches for the next show and excitement takes over the anger he was feeling)

BRUNO: What happened last month had me so pissed off and I started to doubt myself for a bit. But then I realized even though I lost The Hardkore America Heavyweight Title to Rally he now knows that he had his ass handed to him by this mid carder. Rally knows that if not for that bullshit he pulled I would still have The Hardkore America Heavyweight Title. But it's all good because what took him so long to accomplish I did it in one match. So Rally enjoy that title but we both know that I had your punk ass beat and that really has to sting to somebody like you.

Now thats old news so on to new business. Our next show which is a PPV I finally get a shot at the one title that I have wanted my whole time in Hardkore World The Hardkore West Coast Title. Wining that title would make me exactly what I was nicknamed years back KING OF THE WEST COAST. I know it's the number 3 title in Harrdkore World but to me it's number 1. That title was created for me IMO and I plan on doing what ever it takes to win it. Some of the best have held that title and I want to be included among them.

Now one of the best in the business has it now Andrew Karnage. Now everybody knows that AK, Damico, and myself were the last guys to hold The Hardkore World 6 Man Tag Team Titles. He is a friend and I have all the respect in the world for him but my boy has something I want and nothing is going to stop me from getting it. Now I know just how bad and tough AK is so do I expect this to be a walk in thhe park, HELL 2 THE NO. I expect AK to come out and do what he does best and thats kick ass and take names but I also plan on doing the same thing.

It's allready going to be hard enough to face AK but Shootfighter is also in the match. I know first hand that this man is not a joke. When I came back to Hardkore World we had one helluva battle but in the end I was the one thatt came out the winner but not without a lot of pain and blood loss. Shootfighter you also know I have all the respect in the world for you but none of that is going to be a factor in this three way ladder match. I know you remember the last time we were in a ladder match Shootfighter(laughing). Oh and let's not forget what kind of match I was in when I beat Marty Donovan for The Hardkore America Heavyweight Title.

As Del Rio would say it's my destiny to become the next Hardkore World West Coast Champion. Yeah I know that sounded kinda corny but the bottom line is this I'm going into this match as one the of the challengers but I plan on walking out the new Hardkore World West Coast Champion and guys theres only 3 things you can do about it NOTHING, LIKE IT, & ACCEPT IT. See you in Palm Springs guys.


fade out.......................

[Onslaught]

The camera opens with a tight focus on, what else, the FOX NEWS LOGO!



Erm….or the Fox News LATINO logo. That’s a thing, I guess. Moving on.

The camera pans back to reveal a packed convention center that looks like every racist Mexican trope since ever got trashed on margaritas and threw up all over the place. There’s a mariachi band in one corner. Mexican soap operas are playing out on big screen TV’s all over the place. And the ambiance wouldn’t be complete without a wrestling ring, in which a battle royale of Mexican midget luchadores is playing out as we speak.

We see Madison Dyson on the main dais, megaphone in hand. From her vantage point, it strikes you just how predominantly male and white the attendees look despite the theme.

Madison: …and if you like your food ‘MUY CALIENTE’ we have an assortment of Mexican dishes being passed around: taco’s, tacquitos, burritos, salsa and nachos. And lastly, please don’t forget to donate to the George Zimmerman defense fund before you leave here today. The guest of honor is set to arrive VERY shortly, so if you’ll please take your seats!

Madison puts down the microphone and turns towards the camera, which also has the Fox News logo in the corner.

Madison: Welcome to a special edition of The Right Idea with Madison Dyson! Today, we’re here in lovely southern Texas for a special meet and greet with Republican nominee for president MITT ROMNEY. Now, certain haters on the other, gayer, side of the fence have accused Romney of supporting policies that do nothing to help America’s LEGAL immigrant population. So today, Mr. Romney is here to talk directly to his throngs of Mexican supporters to allay those fears and embrace all the colors of the conservative rainbow. Why, there are a number of prominent MEXICAN conservatives in attendance here....heh, right now I can see….uhhhhh…..well, there’s gotta be….

The camera scans over the very, VERY white audience, looking for somebody….hell, anybody of “color”.

Madison: Oh wait! OH MY GOD!! CAN IT BE?! IT’S…IT’S….FORMER TEXAS SOLICITOR GENERAL AND CURRENT GOP SENATE CANDIDATE TED CRUZ!!

Madison’s enthusiasm is oh so genuine. Suddenly, Madison frowns deep and brings the megaphone back up to her face.

Madison (very unhappy): Will some PLEASE get Joe Arpaio away from Ted Cruz!

The camera finally catches up with Ted Cruz, who is currently being given a pat down by Sheriff Joe. Madison sighs and returns her attention to us once more.

Madison: Well folks, I’m going to vacate the stage because Mitt Romney is set to begin speaking right about now-ish.

Madison clears the stage and Mexican meringue music starts blaring through the speakers as Mitt Romney takes the stage. The crowd cheers as Mitt takes the mic.

Mitt Romney: Yo, yo, dawgs…R-MONEY in the hizzzzzhouse!

That involuntarily cringing you just felt? Completely natural. Embarrassed coughs and mutterings are heard in the audience. Mitt sheepishly reboots.

Mitt Romney: Heh…heh….just a little, uh, “urban humor” for all my Mexican friends. *awkward pause* Well, today is all about me getting I touch with my Mexican base, and what better way to do it than by engaging in a carefully vetted, media laden meeting like this one. So….uhhhh….lets get this over with. Does anyone have a question for me?

Sheriff Joe is getting uncomfortably close to poor Ted Cruz’s nethers with the pat down.

Mitt Romney: Anyone…anyone….ah, yes, you there!

Madison (in a whispered aside to the camera): Look everyone! Mitt Romney is engaging with his minority fan base!

We see a lone figure running up to the microphone set up amidst the crowd of chairs. Madison is too busy delivering her aside to see who it is.

Mitt Romney: Yes, you there. What’s your name and where are you from?

The Engineer: My name is…*gets closer to mic*….MY NAME IS THE ENGINEER AND I DON’T KNOW WHERE I’M FROM.

Mitt, clearly not really paying attention, responds.

Mitt Romney: Oh, you’re an engineer. A fine American profession that I am definitely not going to help outsource to Bangladesh. So tell me a little about yourself….

Madison (shrieking): NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

The Engineer: Sometimes I play with my nipples, but it’s not a sexual thing it’s just because I’m bored. *Engy smiles stupidly*

Madison is already at his side, dragging him away from the podium and into the hallway. Naturally, the camera follows.

The Engineer: He told me to….!

Madison: ShutupshutupshutupshutupSHUTUP!! *deep inhale* What….THE FUCK….are you doing here?!!!

The Engineer: Looking for you, you stupid crappy manager!

Madison (angrily): Oh, who are YOU calling crappy?! Mr. “Got beat in his first Hardkore World match, and then got his ass kicked again by the world’s most autistic martial artist”!

The Engineer: NONE OF THAT WAS MY FAULT! I was all distracted like, couldn’t stop thinkin’ about that missin’ time from the Marty thing…

Madison: Well, stop thinking about it. I remember it clear as day. I won.

The Engineer: You did?!

Madison: Yes. It came down to me and Rally Jackson and Rally eliminated himself because he thought he found his smile but then lost it again. So stop worrying about that stupid battle royale.

The Engineer: But what about all those promos we shot? You know, the one where I railed on Marty’s mom…and then the other one where I RAILED ON MARTY’S MOM. You never sent those in and now Syberus is mad at me because he thinks I didn’t cut any promos!

Madison: Well….I….uhhhh, my bad, I guess.

The Engineer (stabbing finger at Madison): You suck!

Madison: Hey! I’ve got a multi-million dollar news franchise to run! You think I have time for you or all your insipid phone calls about the new My Little Pony toy you got in your Happy Meal?!

The Engineer: I LOVE THOSE PONIES!!!!!!

Woman’s Voice: Uh oh, sounds like trouble in paradise…

Is that…*sniff sniff* brimstone, you smell? Because wherever there is strife, you can be sure its avatar will appear. I present to you, ANN COULTER!

Madison: Fuck my life.

Ann Coulter: Long time no see, Madison.

Ann Coulter drifts into the scene on an unseen wave of spite. For those who have followed Madison’s interpromotional exploits (and who hasn’t!) you know that Madison and conservative firebrand cum fascist Ann Coulter used to be good friends in 3WL, a partnership that ended rather poorly.

Madison: Don’t you have some boners to kill you tight skinned skeletal succubus-hag?

Ann Coulter: Hardly any way to treat an old friend. And you need to lay off Rally Jackson, the man has built a career out of being an unabashed racist, he’s practically one of us. *Looks at Engy with a measure of disgust* And what’s this thing pray tell?

The Engineer: Hi nice lady. I’m Engy. Will you please tell Madison to stop being such a shitty manager?

Ann Coulter: A shitty manager, huh?

Madison: Engy, don’t talk to this bitch!

Ann Coulter: Oh, I’m afraid the cats out of the bag now. Kind of funny, what with you turning into the “shitty manager” you accused me of being.

Madison: You know what Ann?! You think you can do better?! *points at Engy* Because this thing is basically a homicidal toddler!

Ann Coulter: A toddler? *sniffs* Make sense, considering it smells like it just shit its pants.

Engy plants his fists on his hips, suddenly realizing that people are saying bad things about him.

The Engineer: Hey, fuck y-….

Ann shoots Engy a withering glance. She is suddenly in his face, and Engy looks….scared?!

Ann: You listen to me you odorous little TAINT STAIN! Standing this close to you make me want to puke, but I’m CHOKING back my bile out of sheer unmitigated HATRED for the limp dicked neutered un-man I see before me! So why don’t you stop playing with the stinky little nubbin you call a pud and put down the crusty high school cheerleader uniform catalogs and start WINNING SOME FUCKING MATCHES YOU WORTHLESS WINDOW LICKING EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING?!!

Engy…does nothing. Ann smirks at him.

Ann: So, what were you going to say?

The Engineer: My pants are smaller now.

Ann steps away from him, and smiles smugly at Madison.

Ann: Challenge accepted.

Ann walks off camera. Madison can hardly believe what she’s just seen.

The Engineer: I think I want to take her to the movies and out to dinner and pay for the whole thing.

END!

[The Shootfighter]

(The Thailand Express are in a wooded area dressed in Muy Thai fighting gear.
Sasketeem Po is with them with a stop watch as they each wait for him to give the word to begin.)

Tong Fairtex: "You ready to start timing each of us."

Sasketeem Po: "You go first Tong."

Tong Fairtex: "Just give the word Sasketeem."

Sasketeem Po: "Begin!"

(Tong begins yelling as he starts throwing hard devastating kicks at the trees the bark and branches break and he continues until each of the trees he is throwing kicks at are demolished.)

Sasketeem Po: "Time!"

Tong Fairtex: "How did I do Sasketeem."

Sasketeem Po: "You didn't do bad Tong."

Tong Fairtex: "Meaning......"

Sasketeem Po: "Two minutes."

Tong Fairtex: "You kidding me."

Phantam Fairtex: "I'll beat your time anytime."

Tong Fairtex: "Yeah like you can beat me in a wii game."

Phantam Fairtex: "I can close brah."

Sasketeem Po: "Okay let's see you beat his time then."

Tong Fairtex: "I can't wait to see this."

Phantam Fairtex: "I know."

(Phantam gets ready as Sasketeem prepares to signal him to begin.)

Sasketeem Po: "Begin!"

(Phantam yells and starts throwing devastating kicks of his own knocking off bark and branches and destroying the trees around him with as much determination until Sasketeem signals him to stop.)

Sasketeem Po: "Time!"

Phantam Fairtex: "So how did I do."

(He starts smiling at his brother who shakes his head his arms folded.)

Sasketeem Po: "Two minutes and 15 seconds."

Phantam Fairtex: "What!"

Sasketeem Po: "That's your time Phantam."

Phantam Fairtex: "Come on I was faster than that."

Tong Fairtex: "Make your complaints to the fuckin watch maker. At least you come close while we're playing wii games."

Sasketeem Po: "There's more important things right now such as preparing for your tag team match with Landan Cale and Gregory Dent."

Phantam Fairtex: "Yeah two newcomers vs. two veterans."

Tong Fairtex: "You're still a newcomer remember."

(Phantam's about to say something.)

Tong Fairtex: "You're stilll a rookie in XPW too."

Phantam Fairtex: "Yeah but we're champions and they aren't."

Tong Fairtex: "We're not going to sell those two Hardkore World wannabees short.
They're going to learn how it's like to be subjected to a TKS style beatdown and
if they don't like it Cale and Dent can go crap in their already smelly diapers."

Phantam Fairtex: "I can't wait to hear them do a promo if they have the brains to actually do one."

Sasketeem Po: "Remember to respect all opponents."

Tong Fairtex: "I've learned that throughout my entire career here in Hardkore World and I've ended up billed as the goofball. Well Hardkore orld is going to see
The Bangkok Hitman and his brother The Love Stud take care of business. You see Cale and Dent you earn your respect in the ring. Now whether it's professional wrestling or MMA or boxing and any sport you earn your respect."

Phantam Fairtex: "Now there are those individuals who diss us quite a bit and to those who are dissing us. I would advise you wisely reconsider your comments, because we're going to kick your asses so bad when the time comes that you'll be
wishing that The Thailand Express didn't hear what you said. Now to those who doubted that we meant everything we said when we made our appearance last week. Allow us to reiterate, if you can understand the word, that The Thailand Express doesn't turn down a challenge or refuses to wrestle in a match. Now unlike Cale and Dent, who will probably show up and just want their paycheck will
get their asses handed to them."

Tong Fairtex: "Like The Herbal Funkies in XPW when those two jokes faced us."

Phantam Fairtex: "We're going to show you up for just plain NEWBIES. You're just going to be scrubs for the rest of your life and toiling in the lower ends of Hardkore World hell. Now that's probably something you can't comprehend so we'll say it in plain simple english......"

Tong Fairtex: "The Thailand Express is going to put you in your place when it comes to the Hardkore World food chain. We're the stronger opponents and you are nothing but the lowest rung. We're going up the food shain while you remain the lowly bottom feeders toiling with the rest of the lower creatures. So at Palm Springs Punishment get used to it Cale and Dent. You'll be seeing all your rookie friends forever and maybe just maybe you'll get lucky and score an upset."

Phantam Fairtex: "Which won't happen anytime soon. If you do manage to get that lucky against us or anyone in Hardkore World consider it just a fluke victory that will comeback to haunt you. You beat us and we'll show you that a beatdown from The Thailand Express will be the last thing you'll ever want to recieve."

(Phantam puts his hands together as if he's praying.)

Phantam Fairtex: "So Cale and Dent please show up and please do at least one little promo. Surprise us and prove you want to be significant in Hardkore World.
Please prove you want to be a tag team force in Hardkore World and not be one hit wonders. We dare you to have the guts to both promo and wrestle us unlike The Sports Entertainers."

Tong Fairtex: "One last thing Cale and Dent. Make sure you have your health insurance paid up, because ObamaCare maybe the only thing that will save your sorry asses from racking up too much hospital debt. Then again you won't be able to pay for the beating we give you unless you mortgage and pawn off all your possessions. So we're not going to waste anymore time with you until you show how significant you are and how much you want to win. We're out of here. Time for the real workout brother Phantam."

Phantam Fairtex: "Let's do the burn brother Tong."

(They leave off screen as the scene slowly fades to black.)

[SnakeCharmer]

The rain pours down on Snake Charmer as he walks along a small park path. He stops, looks into the sky, and raises his hands as if to just embrace the rain. After a few moments Charmer breaks the silence.

SC: When it rains, it pours. When one door closes, another opens. Sorry, I don't have anymore stupid sayings. But where I might not be wrestling for the Hardkore World Heavyweight Championship, I am more than happy to clam the  Hardkore American Championship as my own. 

The rain stops almost all at once. Charmer opens his eyes and looks around confused.

SC: East Texas rain is an odd thing. It comes from nowhere. Everyone gets happy because they have ever get to really see or enjoy it. But then just as quickly as it came it ends.

The sun starts to roll out from behind the clouds.

SC: Just like Rally Jackson's title reign. If this is the title he has never been able to win till right now, then this reign is going to be bitter sweet. So, I hope Rally makes sure to enjoy all the perks of being a champion again because the sands of time are already running low on him.

Charmer starts to walk away but turns back to the camera. 

SC: Rally make sure you clean the Hardkore America Heavyweight Championship belt up really well, I'm going to want to see my reflection in gold when I'm holding it high above my head.

[vastrix]

(OOC at the end Kilroy Evans is used with permission)

"The Brain" Allen Anderson sits at a podium. He is happy. He is won the freaking lottery happy. He is just got laid with a mega superstar actress happy. He is a watching the last shovel of dirt cover Matthew X's grave happy.

Tarrasque sits next to Anderson with a large bucket of live oysters in water. He also has a bottle of Hot Butter, a mixture of clarified butter, hot sauce, and salt. He cracks one against the side of the chair, opens it up, sauces it, and slurps the oyster out of the shell live.

Assembled in front of Anderson and Tarrasque are a gathered group of Warhammer sympathizers. Syncophants with little life of their own without their job at Warhammer or a Warhammer-owned company.

Anderson: "The time has come at last! My beast, Tarrasque, will face Kilroy Evans in the ring at Palm Springs Punishment! This man has humiliate me in the past and I will not have to live it down another day! So...what do you all think we should do?"

A hand goes up. "Didn't Kilroy do things to you after you kidnapped his then friend's niece and threatened to break her neck? Didn't you threaten to do more things to him and his family?"

Anderson slams his fist down onto the podium, spittle flying from his mouth as he yells.

Anderson: "I will kidnap his relatives, I will kidnap his friends. His enemies. Strangers that he has only met once. I would kidnap the entire population of a major city if it would force Kilroy Evans to lay down and take exactly what's coming to him!"

Anderson wipes at his mouth with a napkin from Tarrasque's unlooked at pile.

Anderson: "Excuse me. Now are there any real ideas? Or, should I just have you lot gassed?"

Another hand goes up. "What if we did a two part, but non-fatal, poison? We hit the drinks with a toxin and then have the other part that completes the toxin be spreadable via a gas! If Kilroy cares about the fans, then he will listen to your demands."

Anderson nods, his face impassive. "A fine idea. Something I think to keep on the back burner because of the cost, but one that will be considered. Others?"

Another hand. "Simple numbers in interference. Suppose Kilroy can defeat Tarrasque. Can he defeat Tarrasque along with Cyan Komar, Takeda Yokosuda, Samuel Madison, Maxwell Drake, Fallout, Fireball, Stephan Blackrage, Xan Xing, Hiroshima, Muta, Ishan Goldenfire, Tsai Jingkai, and Sikarin Tsooth? You've managed numbers equal to a small army in the past and this is only part. Tap them!"

Anderson: "I like your enthusiasm though I don't know. My bringing out numbers means he will have friends come to save him. This turns into a war, my vengeance is no longer secure and it becomes a thing of chance. I don't really think this is something we will try. Besides, do you want the mission of calling everyone?"

There is a bit of silence before anyone speaks. It is Tarrasque.

Tarrasque: "How about let beast have good match and leave alone. Vengeance comes with gold."

There is another long silence until Anderson begins laughing. He tilts his head back and begin a full belly laugh, only stopping to glare at the gathered crowd to bully them into laughing as well. Then, all is silent as soon as Anderson stops laughing to stare daggers into Tarrasque's chest.

Anderson: "If you would have just broken his neck when we first returned then we wouldn't have this discussion. Would we? We'd be seriously waging a fair battle against a good World champion."

Tarrasque raises an eyebrow. "Really"

Anderson cracks him in the back of the head with his cane with a harsh laugh. "No, you fool! We'd still be doing this meeting only I would have had to come up with different reasons for the grudges!"

Tarrasque sullenly looks down at his food, and begins angrily eating at it.

Anderson surveys the crowd. "Are there no more good ideas? Are you all blasted fools? Shall I have to do everything myself?"

"How about a Bad Touch? Would that work?"

Anderson scans the crowd quickly. He recognizes the voice, but he doesn't see him there in the crowd.

For their part, the crowd does not point.

Anderson turns and nearly walks into Kilroy Evans himself. Anderson opens his mouth to speak, but Kilroy holds up a finger to his lips. Anderson nods, the color in his face rapidly draining away.

Kilroy smiles. "What's one more thing anyways?"

A swift kick and a Bad Touch later, Anderson is lying on the ground with a bit of a twitch going on.

Tarrasque looks up from his tub of chicken and laughs. He waves at Kilroy and then motions him over.

Kilroy drags Anderson over and sits down on his back. Tarrasque laughs, passing Kilroy some chicken.

As Anderson begins to stir, Kilroy leans back and elbows him in the back of the head to keep him out.

Tarrasque laughs. "Best meeting ever!"

We fade as Tarrasque and Kilroy sits and eat fried chicken with a bewildered Warhammer crowd looking on.

[The Shootfighter]

(The Shootfighter and Angela are watching match tapes as he prepares for his match with Andrew Karnage and Bruno. There is a look of nostalgia on his face as he watches them.)

The Shootfighter: "Yeah Bruno I still remember that six-man title match when you,
Stan 'The Tank' Wilson and Tony Damico, formerly known as Hawke if I recall took the titles from myself and two members of The Warhammer Corp. Oh you pulled one on them, but I knew better didn't I Bruno? I kept telling them that you were faking them out with that heights act."

Angela: "They never listened did they?"

The Shootfighter: "Not in the least. Well Bruno you have no excuses unless ladders are your latest faux phobia and I know it isn't since you obviously have been in more ladder matches than you ever can name. Well come Palm Springs Punishment Bruno it's going to be payback time and everyone knows what that is now don't we."

Angela: "The 'B' word."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. Now don't get me wrong Bruno I do respect you a lot. You're one of the toughest competitors in Hardkore World or no natter where you wrestle in. You weren't the champion for nothing. You wanted that title for sometime and I knew it too. Too bad fate wasn't with us or we would have put on one of the best matches."

Angela: "Definitely."

The Shootfighter: "Now to someone who thinks he's really funny when it comes to pulling some of the goofiest stunts ever. Yeah Karnage your old stupid tricks never cease to amaze me. First there's the Toybox Match that turns out to be just
an empty box just like your head is empty of new ideas. Oh I know you're ticked off about what my sons did and that's understandable. Still you don't realize that I'm not someone who takes stunts like yours lying down. So you got lucky to pin me in a six-man match. Now I know you're upset, but soon you're going to be quite upset even more when The Shootfighter literally climbs the ladder of Hardkore World ladder of success to become Hardkore World West Coast Champion for the second time."

Angela: "He ponders it each time he's barbequeing with extra hot BBQ Sauce and mesquite."

The Shootfighter: "Karnage I'm more determined than ever to win that title back. You see that title means a lot more to me than you think and probably a lot more to Bruno than you think too. The fact is The Shootfighter is coming for that title and he's coming to win it anyway possible by any means. Then again that's rather obvious isn't it. The Shootfighter stops at nothing to win and he makes sure he wins anyway he can."

Angela: "That's why people boo him and he couldn't care less."

The Shootfighter: "That's right I could care less what the ringsiders think, because The Shootfighter's always been that way. Then again that's why my fans prefer me just the way I am. That's why The Shootfighter is The Shootfighter.
That's why nobody can get into his head. Don't worry Karnage you'll have your chances at any title in the future. Then again Bruno will probably get the upset victory over both of us which is what makes three way matches so good. It's unpredictable and nobody is on nobody's side but their own."

Angela: "Add the ladder and that's going to be a lethal weapon."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. The ladder will be coming into play a lot during this match and The Shootfighter is going to use it when he can and whenever he can. Anyone who thinks differently is definitely naive or stupid. Still Bruno or you Karnage can use it at anytime. I wouldn't be surprised if that happens. All we need to do is just set it up and climb it to the Hardkore West Coast Championship Title what's hanging over the ring. Imagine the broken bones, broken bodies and pain that's going to be dished out. It's going to be a match that Hardkore World fans are going to be remembering for quite awhile and more so when The Shootfighter returns to the top of the Hardkore West Coast rankings as the champion."

Angela: "One of the greatest comebacks ever."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. I know any comeback is tough but then again when it comes to tough battles all of Hardkore World knows The Shootfighter hates anything that's easy. He doesn't like matches handed to him, because he works hard and that's always been that way. At Palm Springs Punishment it's going to be the night The Shootfighter will regain his title."

Angela: "Definitely."

The Shootfighter: "Definitley."

(The Shootfighter removes the match tapes and places new ones in as the scene slowly fades to black.)

[SnakeCharmer]

Snake Charmer is running on a treadmill. Sweat soaking threw his 80's looking, white Golden Gym tank top, and black shorts. Quickly, Charmer stops running and the momentum of the treadmill drops him to the floor. 

SC:  So Rally likes to watch tapes in preparation for his matches. Well here is some footage for you to watch. 

Charmer turns around, bends over, and drops his shorts. After a few seconds he pulls his shorts back up and spins back around.

SC: I hope that puts a smile on your face. I know it must be had to keep from crying when you know its just time keeping you away from me. You know as hard as you had to fight for that belt and it's already slipping from your grasp. 

Charmer grabs a towel and starts patting the sweat away from his face.

SC: So re-watch this tape, watch my matches with Tarrasques, or maybe try an old Disney movie if you really want. It doesn't change the fact that I'm coming for you. 

Charmer starts to move forwards a weight set.

SC: One more thing, Rally...

Charmer again spins around and moons the camera.

SC:...kiss my ass!

[whogotpunkd]

The camera fades in showing footage of several women walking around in bikinis as one carries a bottle of champagne over towards the hot tub. We see CSK talking on his cell phone sitting between two brunettes, with one feeding him grapes and the other a glass of red wine.

CSK: I don’t care how long it takes you. You tell that goofball Syberus that next time he goes to eat his damn fruit basket, before he swallows it all at once, he should look inside the damn shit. Hell I stuffed that grapefruit with over 5,000.00 and he gives me some no name jock strap for a match?

One of the women feeds a few more grapes to CSK as he throws the cell phone behind him landing in the middle of the pool.

CSK: I swear some people just don’t get the point of a little rub. I mean Syberus and I go back many years and he gives me dora the explorer for my homecoming? Bad enough Bruno who never accomplished a damn thing in any company that his friends didn’t run got a rub here, bad enough I had to see him as a former American champion. But son of a bitch what has happened to HKW?

What happened to the days of Cobryn, RH3, Lucifer Jones, Dan Stein? This has become the watered down version in comparison to ECW so many years ago. Glad I had the good sense not join that flush hole. But seriously Syb, what gives?

CSK stands up as the camera blurs out the mid section where CSK steps out of the hot tub completely nude. Making his way over towards the pool, he takes a bottle of champagne and puts a pair of sunglasses on with his hair hanging down over his face.

CSK: Alright kid, time to give you the fifteen minutes of fame that you don’t deserve. Brandon Young? That’s about as generic a name as exlax. Listen kid, the hype you’ve been given means shit to me. Let me throw some history at you.

Greg Daniels, Ryan Kilmer, Dark Saint, Dracon, Mojo, Caffeine Boy, Dutch Express, Happy Faces, James Ashcroft, Genity Howard. Do you know what all of those names have in common with you? They were all the hottest prospects supposedly at point or another. Some indy fed no name jokes who thought they were going to make a name at my expense. Well ten years later I’m still standing, filthy rich, a trophy collection that probably matches the amount of times you’ve been turned down in your life, and they are all retired, out of the business and don’t mean a god damn thing to anyone!

Now, what you DON’T have in common with those men is most of them had something you don’t possess. TALENT! Sure Greg Daniels had more failed comebacks then Chynas had porn movies. Sure Ryan Kilmer hid behind a womans skirt and ran out of the company with no balls and his tail between his legs. And I won’t even waste time on the other names mentioned.

What I’m getting at is everyone was supposed to be some hot young prospect from some other region. They faced me, got their asses handed to them and either put on a suit and tie and kissed ass to work in the office or they just left the business. So excuse the living fuck out of me, if ON MY HOME COMING RETURN AT PALM SPRINGS PUNISHMENT, I don’t get a top notch star, but a watered down, piss stained jock strap sniffer for an opponent.

Let’s break it down son. When you were first discovering that you were growing hair on your body and thought you were turning into the next teen wolf, I was dominating a company along with Robert Hunglestein III. While you were popping zits, scratching your ass, and playing dungeons and dragons with your three fat friends and the toothless chick with arm pit hair next door trying to get a piece of ass, I was ripping up Japan facing Cyrus Williams. And when you were touring the world following Hanson and all the other boy brand crap groupies, I was in Australia as the World Heavyweight Champion.

So let’s just save ourselves the time and effort. The good news is you’re going to make headlines in every major wrestling magazine around. You’re going to be the fist opponent for the returning CSK, by the way that’s me dumbass! Now here’s the bad news. You picked the wrong company to come to, because I’m sure you had some over rated career in some mom and pop church wrestling event. Great for you kid. But you see, I have a finisher, one unlike anything ever seen before. You’re going to be my example, my guinea pig and my bitch inside that ring! When the bell rings, the ref slaps his hand to the count of three and you’re stretchered out with a broken neck, just look at the bright side.

When you’re sitting in a retirement home or assisted living because you’re paralyzed for life, as you’re shitting your diaper and ringing the bell for some old toothless nurse to change your hairy ass and clean you up, you can smile with that one remaining tooth, and say God damnit, I was a no name piece of shit, but I got my ass handed to me by the greatest wrestler to ever live! Now go home, watch your star trek re runs, or whatever it is you geeks do and let me get to the grown folks here.

The nude CSK walks past the pool and through several rooms. What appears to be a video room, CSK makes his way over to a top shelf and pulls down a dvd. As he looks at the cover, a small smile crosses his face before his eyes start to turn black and he throws a bottle of champagne against the wall.

CSK: I’ve waited so long for this moment and when the time is right you’ll pay for all that you’ve done. This time your friends aren’t here to save you, there’s no politics for you to run and hide behind, there’s no bitch card for you to pull.

I’ve waited so long, to watch the blood drip from your body, to taste the bitterness of it. You cost me my integrity, my power, because of you I was forced into so many horrible gimmicks while you sat back and laughed. Your friends, the politics, everything you did to hold me down………none of that exists now.

Your friends are gone, ownership has changed and I am allowed to be who I truly am. But don’t worry, I won’t end your career all at once. I want to take pleasure, pride and enjoyment watching you slowly suffer. One thing at a time you will slowly lose everything that’s ever mattered to you.

CSK looks once again at the dvd cover before throwing it behind his back.

It’s been a long time comin’
And the tables turned around
’Cause one of us is goin’
One of us is goin’ down

This is hardly worth fightin’ for
But it’s the little petty shit that I can’t ignore
When my fists hit your face
And your face hit’s the floor

It’ll be a long time comin’
But you got the message now
‘Cause I was never goin’
Yeah, you’re the one that’s goin’ down

[Kilroy]

OOC: I profusely apologize for how long this took. I have excuses, but who cares? Vastrix deserves better than that. Sadly, he gets this instead.

[Ah, it's another glorious sunny day wherever Andrew Karnage is. The Hardkore World West Coast Champion is standing in front of his house. Truth be told, I can't recall where it is exactly. He was in Utah for thelongest time but then he moved to South Carolina for a time and it's not clear if he's still there or not. But it's not like it's being identified via a title card or something, so there's no need to belabor the point.]

Andrew Karnage: Ahhhhhh.

[Karnage enjoys the breeze that is currently blowing through. It's early in the day, so the sun hasn't quite gotten to the point of teabagging the Earth for shits and giggles yet, generally making all those who must venture outdoors yearn for death. All in all a pleasant scene. as Karnage steps out to retrieve his newspaper. Yes, he's old school like that. Why, he might even sit on his porch and read it before continuing with his day. This shit's fucking idyllic. Like, hilariously so. Especially if you have this song playing in the background. It's practically hitting "fabric softener commercial" levels of chill.]

Andrew Karnage: *contented sigh* Welp...that does it for my today's goals. Now it's back inside to do nothing and like it.

[He turns to go back inside, paper in hand. It's at that exact moment that a black van pulls up to the house, opens its side door, and dumps something on the lawn before driving off as fast as it can. Newspaper in hand, Karnage approaches the large, man-sized, burlap sack. As it turns out, the sack has a good reason for being man-sized, as evidenced when Kilroy Evans pulls himself out of it. Dusting himself off, he turns and waves at the departing van.]

Kilroy Evans: Bye, fellas! Had a great time.

[Kilroy turns to look at Karnage, who looks curious but has seen more than enough of this kind of thing to be surprised anymore.]

Kilroy Evans: *looks over* Guess where I've been!

Andrew Karnage: Going by the Warhammer Corporation jumpsuit, I'm going to guess Dollywood.

Kilroy Evans: You were close. I was spirited away in the dead of night to a mysterious underground bunker deep within the earth. Then, I was put through grueling indoctrination, a program intent on breaking my spirit and rebuilding me into the perfect vessel to fill with their insidious ideology. It was like being stuck in Syb's last staff meeting all over again.

[There's a lull in the conversation. Karnage just stares at Kilroy. The Hardkore World Heavyweight Champion just stares back with a beaming smile on his face.]

Andrew Karnage: So...why did this happen?

Kilroy Evans: Because Tarrasque offered me the chance to show up and annoy Allen Anderson. So he sponsered me for an open position and then, in order to gain access, all I had to do was survive...employee orientation!

[Kilroy says the last bit with a spooky voice while waggling his fingers at Karnage. He only stops when Drew whacks him on the side of the head with the newspaper.]

Andrew Karnage: I'm surprised it didn't end up being a trap of some kind.

Kilroy Evans: Hey, that's no way to talk. Tarrasque is a manbeast of his word and I respect him. He's ferocious and bloodthirsty and uncomplicated. There's no need for psychological posturing or ego measuring with him. Tarrasque just wants to fight. He only wants to prove his strength. He is the pure, unbridled, almost certainly lethal spirit of competition 'round these parts. I couldn't be happier to face a guy like that, especially with the prize of Hardkore World on the line. One-on-one with Tarrasque is just the relaxation I need.

Andrew Karnage: Oh yeah?

Kilroy Evans: Like a day at the spa. If said spa was owned by the Jigsaw Killer.

[Kilroy giggles while thinking of his upcoming match.]

Kilroy Evans: We're gonna fight and it's gonna be so much fun. And a title match is even better! You know how much harder people fight with incentive. Now there's a twenty pound incentive piece made of gold involved! God, if Tarrasque manages to beat me, I'll strap it around his waist personally. That's a big if, though. He knows I can match him straight up. He knows that I'll take what he has to give and send it right back to him. And if he didn't, he will soon enough.

Andrew Karnage: You really think you're just going to get a straight up match with Warhammer lurking in the background?

[Kilroy takes the opportunity to lean on Karnage's mailbox.]

Kilroy Evans: That's where they better stay. I'm not having a match like this ruined by Allen fucking Anderson, that's for sure. 'Cause he wouldn't be ruining my match. He'd be ruining Tarrasque's. And that, in my eyes, would be a bigger sin than just screwing me over.

[Kilroy gets a faraway, gleeful expression on his face.]

Kilroy Evans: It's our match. Ours. Just for us. Besides, this is a matter of honor between two Warhammer employees. That should be enough.

Andrew Karnage: So how was orientation, anyway?

Kilroy Evans: Eh, the usual. Kind of like the Scientology one I went to for fun. Less expensive, though. They got all huffy with me at the end because the brainwashing didn't take effect like---

[Kilroy suddenly snaps to attention and raises a fist in the air.]

Kilroy Evans: HAIL HYDRA! CUT OFF ONE HEAD, TWO MORE TAKE ITS PLACE!

[He relaxes again.]

Kilroy Evans: ---they wanted it to. I'm not surprised once you take the obvious into account.

Andrew Karnage: The pre-existing mental problems and history of severe head trauma?

Kilroy Evans: Yes, my strong moral core. Exactly. So after all that and showing up to mess with Anderson, we hung out for a while. Tarrasque is good people and a blast to be around. Of course, I've been told that people I find to be good company are the opposite by people supposedly saner than me.

[Kilroy tilts his head toward Karnage with a loving smile on his face. Karnage retorts with a deadpan expression and a quirked eyebrow.]

Kilroy Evans: Anywho, that was my week. Yours?

[Karnage shrugs.]

Andrew Karnage: Eh. Stuff. So did you have to sign some sort of infernal contract when you joined up?

Kilroy Evans: I didn't, but...

[Kilroy reaches into a pocket and hands over an ID card.]

Kilroy Evans: ...Fong Tairfex did. Now then, I'm kinda hungry. Mind sparing some cereal?

[Karnage nods and laughs as Kilroy repockets the card. They head toward the house as the shot fades out. Play the music again, it'll make the moment funnier and way, way more homoerotic. The shot fades out.]

Andrew Karnage: *voice over* It's a little disappointing to hear all they've got is some kind of compund-slash-bunker.

Kilroy Evans: *voice over* Well, from I was told, the volcano lair is under renovations.

Andrew Karnage: *voice over* Bummer.

Kilroy Evans: *voice over* Tell me about it.

[End.]

[The Shootfighter]

(The Shootfighter is finished doing roadwork as he prepares for his match. Angela matches him stride for stride as they both stop and wipe the sweat off their faces.)

Angela: "Not bad for a valet."

The Shootfighter: "You still have it even when you wrestled in Hardkore World."

Angela: "Let's not bring it up."

The Shootfighter: "The other shoe drops."

Angela:"Fine."

The Shootfighter: "Well both Bruno and Karnage will be enjoying seeing how it's like for the other shoes to drop when we meet and when that happens we'll see
who really earns that title shot and climbs the ladder of success."

Angela: "You actually showed a sense of humor."

The Shootfighter: "Figure of speech Angela."

Angela: "I'm sure."

The Shootfighter: "Now Kilroy don't bother taking potshots at my sons since you both will have to back it up. Now I'm not going to defend them, because they're old enough to fight their own battles."

Angela: "They take after you."

The Shootfighter: "It took the XPW to make them see the light and follow the rulebreaker path."

Angela: "Destiny will find it's way. That's going to be Palms Springs Punishment."

The Shootfighter: "Bruno was able to get lucky a few years ago. This time it won't be so easy and it's not going to be his time. That goes with Karnage since he thinks he can pull that same stuff like his partner in crime Kilroy. Too bad Karnage that it's not going to work for either you or Bruno. It's The Shootfighter's time and I'm going to make an impact and I'm going to get that shot after winning that titleshot."

Angela: "Just remember to use the ladder as many times as possible."

The Shootfighter: "I plan on doing just that Angela. Bruno and karnage are going to see what it's like to be waiting again. Karnage is going to suffer just that when I
use the ladder on him and Bruno's going to be suffering the same fate before I climb that ladder and win."

Angela: "You did it again Shootfighter."

The Shootfighter: "It's still a figure of speech."

Angela: "Whatever you say."

The Shootfighter: "You know what I mean."

Angela: "Oh I know what you mean Shootfighter."

The Shootfighter: "The reality is that Karnage and Bruno are going to see someone worthy of that potential title shot get it and I plan on being that person."

Angela: "Of course you plan on doing so."

The Shootfighter: "That's right and you two had better be ready, because I plan on being ready for this PPV and for this ladder match. I know the ladder's going to be coming into play as much as your typical weapon in Hardkore World. I'm not
stupid and I know it's going to be hard hitting so I know all three of us are going to go all out to hurt each other. I plan on bringing pain and agony and I do plan on doing just that."

Angela: "Karnage and Bruno are going to be thinking the same thing."

The Shootfighter: "Of course they plan on doing just that. Like I said we're not stupid."

Angela: "I'm sure. Let's continue doing some more miles."

(Angela continues running and The Shootfighter quickly follows her as the scene slowly fades to black.)

[bruno3997]

(the compton colossus has just finished his work out and sits down in front of a camera he has set up. theres no robert blood or tony damico any where in sight)

BRUNO: There are quite a few people in this business that I hate like Rallly Jacare Jackson. A man that had to cheat to win The Hardkore America Heavyweight Title. A man that through out all his promos talked about me, my mother, and everything else under the sun but had to cheat to beat me. That shit bothers me but I do get some pleasure in knowing that with all those titles he has held he couldn't beat The Compton Colossus straight up fair and square. But still you are the champ and I'm not but let's see how long you can hoold on to it.

Now there are people in the business that I don't hate but respect like Shootfighter. This man is one of the toughest SOB's in this business and I have a ton of respect for him. I know he's going to bring it like he allwyas does but just for the record Shootfighter I'm 2-0 against you dawg. Now I'm no ladder match expert but the last 2 ladder matches I have been in I came out the winner and this match for The Hardkore West Coast Title is going to be know different. This is a title Shootfighter has held and it's the one I have wanted since joining Hardkore World. I finally get my shot at it and come hell or high water if I have to beat the brakes off of you Shootfighter then believe me thats what I'm gonna do PLEAZEBALEEVEIT.

There are guys that I like and are friends with in this business and Andrew Karnage happens to be one of them. I'm 0-1 against AK but in at The Hardkore Hall in Palm Springs thats going to change. AK you are one of the best wrestlers to ever step foot in Hardkore World but so is Marty Donovan and you saw me knock him out to win the Hardkore America Heavyweight Title. Now I know you like to have fun and clown around but I also know how dangerous you are. I took you for granted in our first match and you pretty much schooled me and put me in my place. Well AK that was then and this is now dawg. Even though we are mad cool don't believe for one second that it's going to be a factor in the match. You have a title that I have wanted for years and I plan on climbing that ladder and becoming the next Hardkore West Coast Champion and theres only 3 things yo can do about it NOTHING, LIKE IT, & ACCEPT IT.

This is my time to shine here in Hardkore World. I have allready proved I can win one of the big ones now it's time to prove that I can win the one that title that I have wanted for years. AK and Shootfighter come ready, come prepared, and last but not least come ready to be beaten by THE COMPTON COLOSSUS.


(the scene ends with bruno laughing as he turns the camera off)



fade out......................

[The Shootfighter]

(The Shootfighter and Angela are walking down a street dressed casually the warm sun is shining down on them but they don't seem to mind.)

The Shootfighter: "Yeah you're right about a couple of things Bruno. You're 2-0 verses me, but you know what they say about winning streaks and how they always come to an end."

Angela: "The proverbial monkey will be leaving your back forever."

The Shootfighter: "That's what it's like, but then again you never know Bruno.
Like I said I still have lots of respect for you. You're one of those rare true to themselves kinds of wrestlers. You never change your style or attitude, because that's your style and yours alone."

Angela: "Kindred spirits."

The Shootfighter: "You can say that. Everyone knows that The Shootfighter never
changes sides out of convenience. I never change my attitude, because that's me and that's the role everyone knows me and when I started in this business that's what everyone thought of me. So that's been me and as always I'll never change my stripes or spots."

Angela: "Why change something that's been good to you."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. Another thing I agree with you on is Rally 'Jacare' Jackson. This idiot changes sides like he changes his gi pants and fighter trunks. He can't steal a title one way he does it another. That's always been his style and so far he still owes me a match. Now I know I won't get that
one match unless I retuire and he claims he beat me."

Angela: "No surprise."

The Shootfighter: "Yeah I announce mey retirement and he'll come out during the next event and claim I'm a coward and so forth. But I'm not going to harp on that coward's avoiding me all these years. I'm concentrating on my three way with you and Karnage. Karnage play around and be as silly as you want, but come Palm Springs Punishment you're going to be the loser in this three way. what's your excuse going to be that Kilroy didn't want you to win."

Angela: "Good one."

The Shootfighter: "Yeah Angela. Now like Bruno mentioned I plan on bringing it a hundred percent. That's what The Shootfighter does best and the same with Bruno. In fact, all three of us want to win this match and that shot for the title.
Each of us have that special drive and desire to win and we'll see soon who will survive the assualt with the ladders."

Angela: "Someone's going to be taking a big fall."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. You see injuries are going to be great and so is the pain and agony when you're flying off the ladder and into the ringside area where the spectators chant 'Hardkore World!' as the other two try to crush each other under the ladders."

Angela: "Someone will be climbing the ladder of success."

(The Shootfighter glares at her.)

Angela: "You said it the last time."

The Shootfighter: "So I did. Now Karnage I'm not going to forget about you after that stunt Kilroy Evans pulled on me when I returned. In fact, I have something in store for you after that stunt you pulled. The six-man match extra-curricular activities was just a taste of what's in store for you and I plan on making sure you suffer. Watch your back Andrew Karnage and make sure you're ready, because
I shall be ready and I plan on winning when climb that ladder."

Angela: "Too bad Karnage, since the name is going to fit your fate after The Shootfighter gets through with you."

The Shootfighter: "Like she said. Palm Springs Punishment is going to be the event that I shall not be denied. You're going to see The Shootfighter win this three way. You're going to see The Shootfighter win and go on to regain the title he was most associated with."

Angela: "Or close to it. Remember Palm Springs Punishment for what could have been for you Bruno and Karnage. We're out of here."

The Shootfighter: "They go into a store as the scene slowly fades to black.)

[The Shootfighter]

(The Thailand Express is strutting slowly and ominously down a near abandoned street dressed in their TKS hoodies and wearing dark shades. They pass by various onlookers who glare at them threatingly but they ignore them as they continue to walk down the street.)

Tong: "So it's been two freakin weeks....two fuckin weeks that those two newbies Cake and Dent didn't even do a promo. So that means that they are either scared of us or they're aiming for scrub status."

Phantam: "Hey chicken shits are you two thinking that you can escape your obligations. Well you two pieces of trash we'll be in the ring and we don't want you to disappoint us by not showing up. We'll be really pissed if you don't and someone is going to pay TKS style."

(They pass by some young toughs and they glare at each other. While the young toughs bang their fists ominously mouthing threats. The Thailand Express just scowls and motions as they answer their challenge to see how serious they are.)

Tong Fairtex: "Now unlike those losers that challenged us just now. There is two assholes I think will do just fine as an example as to how pissed we can get when our opponents refuse to show or just chicken out. Now these two pieces of garbage are well known by our father. You know who you are and we do too. Kilroy watch your ass around us, because you think that card stunt was real funny don't you."

Phantam Fairtex: "We found more of those cheap ass cards in my newly acquired mansion that belonged to you know who and we don't mean you and that asshole partner Karnage. Now Karnage you are also on our hit list and it isn't going to be pretty. If Cale and Dent don't show up we'll be watching you and Evans which means trouble for you."

(They turn into an alleyway and see the young toughs that challenged them.)

Tong Fairtex: "This is going to be good."

Phantam Fairtex: "Oh yeah brother."

(They remove their dark shades and hoodies as does the young toughs and both begin to move towards the other.)

Tong Fairtex: "Kilroy and Karnage watch and learn what you're in for as we make short work of these tough punks. It's going to be TKS style and it's not going to be a thing of beauty for these punks and you when and if we get into the ring.

Phantam Fairtex: "Let's own these assholes."

(All five close the gap quickly and they begin to fight. The Thailand Express brutally beat the young toughs up and add a few humiating kicks to their balls before stepping on them and leaving the alley.)

Tong Fairtex: "Another successful beating TKS style."

Phantam Fairtex: "Cale and Dent will regret facing us."

Tong Fairtex: "After them so will Karnage and Evans."

Phantam Fairtex: "Especially them."

(They continue walking as the scene slowly fades to black.)
