FCW presents

 

Civil War

 

(“New Breed” by Fear Factory plays as we are treated to a slightly updated version of the FCTV intro. Some old faces have been replaced and some more recent event highlights have made their way into the mix. As the intro ends, we cut to a live shot of the FCW Arena. Holiday or no holiday, the FCW faithful are in attendance but many have brought patriotic signs and banners. After panning the crowd for about a minute, the camera cuts to the announce position.)

 

Kevin Cole: Full Contact TV is on the air on this Fourth of July! And you won’t need to go outside to see fireworks! Tonight’s main event pits Hazard against Scourge with the FCW World Title hanging in the balance!

 

Nik Cain: Sparks are definitely gonna fly in that one.

James Crawford: So we’re a little more than a month a way from our next pay per view. You guys still remember the last one, right?

 

(Big pop from the crowd.)

 

James Crawford: Good. Well, come August, FCW is going to have itself a little Civil War. It’s been a couple years since we’ve had a real Civil War, since last year we had to prove to the establishment that FCW was no joke and was not going any damn where.

 

(Another pop.)

 

James Crawford: So tonight it is my pleasure to announce the two team-captains for this year’s event. The first is none other than the current FCW World Champion and the One Man Riot, Hazard.

 

(The crowd pops though there is a number of boos mixed in with the cheers.)

 

James Crawford: And the other captain will be the first man to sign an FCW contract, the eND Bringer, Oblivion.

 

(Another big reaction from the crowd consisting mostly of cheers but with a few boos as well.)

 

James Crawford: Those are the captains and, over the next few weeks, they will assemble their teams. As was the case the first time around, the winning team will receive a sizeable cash prize and the surviving members of the team will get the title shots of their choosing. It should be one hell of a show. Oh, and before I got, I got a few words for Shawn Michaels. The second you signed your contract you became my property. By the time your current run in FCW is over there will be nothing left of you. Mark my words. This isn’t going to be a career move for you; it’s going to be a prison sentence. And your term starts tonight.

 

(“Smoke on the Water” begins to play again as James Crawford makes his way to the back.)

 

 

Kevin Cole: Hazard and Oblivion will be the team captains for this year’s Civil War!

 

Nik Cain: Both men are natural born leaders. Hazard has already run the very successful Devil’s Dance Inc. stable and Oblivion, well he’s got his own little Manson family thing going on as we speak.

 

Kevin Cole: And what about Crawford’s words for Shawn Michaels?

 

Nik Cain: Michaels has no love for wrestling which begs the question of why he came back? Sure, he’ll make some money and get his face on TV but Crawford and the rest of the FCW roster is looking forward to making his life hell. You simply don’t walk into the FCW Arena and disrespect us, unless of course you don’t plan on walking back out.

This is the guy who broke Rocky McCray’s back. This is the guy who reduced John Tatum’s ankle to dust. This is the guy who burned Sudden Death’s face beyond recognition. And this is simply the first of many long nights for Shawn Michaels.

Kevin Cole: Wait just one minute! It’s Oblivion!

 

 

(As the final bell rings, both men are down in the ring. From off camera, Oblivion leaps the guardrail and slides into the ring. He doesn’t even bother sneaking up on Michaels, who has pulled himself back up to his feet. He simply walks up to him and buries a boot in his midsection and then wraps his hand around Michaels’ throat, pressing his thumb down hard and bringing an already exhausted Michaels back down to his knees. He gets right in Michaels face.)

 

Oblivion: Look into my eyes and get used to them for they will be the last thing you ever see.

 

(Oblivion shoves Michaels down to the mat with disgust. He slides back out of the ring and catches sight of a cowering Alex DiGiacomo out of the corner of his eye.

Kevin Cole: We are back! Next up we’ve got some interesting tag team action!

 

Nik Cain: Both Tragedy and Joshua Moon are known for being one half of prominent tag teams in the Thespian Express and Heretics respectively. But, tonight, they’ll each be teaming up with someone other than their usual partners as Tragedy teams up with Scion and Moon teams up with Monarch. There’s plenty of animosity to go around in this one and that tends to lead to highly entertaining match ups.

(Before the match can begin, the lights in the arena flicker. “Locust Star” by Neurosis begins to play and Oblivion makes his way down to the ring with both the Messenger and Jay Reno behind him. Despite his match earlier and the large gash that’s been sewn up on his forehead, The Messenger’s demeanor is as calm and unemotional as ever. Reno, on the other hand, seems very addled, tugging frantically at his own hair. All three men get down to the ringside area, step over the guardrail, and take front row seats.)

(The two men had been battling right in front of where Oblivion, Jay Reno, and The Messenger had been seated. But, as Scourge whips Hazard into the guardrail, Oblivion springs up and, in the blink of an eye, punches Hazard in the back of the head. You can see the light quickly gleam off what appears to be a set of brass knuckles. Hazard staggers forward, obviously dazed.)

 

 

Kevin Cole: Oh no! Oblivion just hit Hazard in the back of the head with what looked like a pair of brass knuckles!

 

Nik Cain: Hazard doesn’t even know where he is, which is unfortunately since he is wandering right back into the waiting arms of Scourge.

 

 

Scourge gets a choke lift on Hazard.

Hazard is valiantly trying to break the hold.

Hazard is close to escaping the hold.

Hazard is writhing in pain.

 

 

Kevin Cole: Scourge is trying to choke the life out of Hazard!

 

Nik Cain: I don’t think Scourge even saw what Oblivion did.

 

 

Harry Buttcheek asks Hazard if he's still there.

Hazard nods.

Scourge lets go after 16 seconds.

Scourge is going for the pin.

Harry Buttcheek counts: One, two, three.

 

 

Kevin Cole: And Scourge gets the pin!

 

Nik Cain: Scourge realized that Hazard was pretty much out of it and just covered him. He may not be able to answer this count.

 

Kevin Cole: Are we going to see a new World Champion crowned here tonight?

 

 

Harry Buttcheek counts: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,

ten.

Scourge is eliciting a sizable round of boos.

 

The winner is Scourge. Time of match: 0:21:13

 

 

(The instant the bell rings, Jay Reno springs into action. He leaps over the guardrail and pounces on the barely conscious Hazard, raining all sorts of fists and boots down on him. Scourge looks at this, not sure what exactly to make of it. Consequently, he does not really notice The Messenger come over the rail. As he catches him out of the corner of his eye, it’s too late. The Messenger has already thrown a vicious forearm shot at the back of the new World Champion’s head. With Scourge staggered, The Messenger drops him with a brutal running clothesline to the back of the head. He then drops down on the fallen champion and begins to pummel him with lefts and rights. This goes on for several seconds before security can rush to the ringside area and work to pry both Reno and The Messenger off their respective victims. All the while, Oblivion just stands in the background, enjoying the chaos he has helped to orchestrate.)

 

 

Kevin Cole: Chaos has broken out at ringside! There are fists and feet flying all over the place! But the real story is that Scourge is the new FCW World Champion!

 

Nik Cain: He sure as hell didn’t get a chance to celebrate as Oblivion has obviously instructed his men to take out both Hazard and Scourge.

 

Kevin Cole: Security is still trying to regain order down here but we are desperately out of time! Enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend and tune in again next week! Until then, this is Kevin Cole for Nik Cain saying goodnight!
