MATCH ONE
NAZI vs. Burning Angel
Tag Team Title Match
"Holier Than Thou" by Metallica begins to play through out the arena as the fans get to their feet, anticipating the emergence of their favorite tag team. The lights dim low as they pulse along with the drum beat. Finally Angel and Burns appear from behind the curtain, pumping their fists, getting the crowds adrenaline pumping. Angel throws his arms straight out to the sides in a mock Jesus pose, except his hands are forming the Devil Horns, Burns, leaning on his cane, pounds his chest with his free hand, then points at he crowd to stand up. The two of them make their way down the ramp as the lyrics kick in, some people in the crowd even singing along to the well known Metallica song. Angel rolls in under the bottom rope as Burns walks up the steps. Angel runs across the ring and leaps onto the far second rope corner, again throwing up double devil horns, while Burns climbs up a near by turnbuckle, pointing at the crowd and then to his half of the tag team titles. They meet up in the center of the ring, slapping each other on the back as the music dies down.
Jaymie Boone: The crowd is really amped for two thirds of nCw's saviors, now calling themselves Burning Angels, Angel and Philip Burns.
Simon Daye: I didn't know they were going under that name now, wasn't that a joke NAZI tried to make about them?
Jaymie Boone: Apparently Angel liked the name.
Burns and Hexx are starting the match as Burns meets Hexx with a hard knee strike followed by a snap mare take down where Burns locks in a rear chin lock, wrenching back on the neck of Hexx. Mimic runs in to make the save but Angel comes from across the ring with a flying shoulder block. Burns shoves Hexx onto the mat and hits the ropes, coming back and base ball slides into Hexx's face. Angel pulls Mimic up and whips him back to the outside. Hexx is to his feet and Burns and Angel double clothes line him. Angel head back out onto the apron. Burns stands Hexx up and whips him into Angel's corner. Angel makes the tag. He and Burns put Hexx on the top rope then lift him up for a super plex. Angel goes for the pin but Mimic breaks it. Mimic sends a few hard kicks to the back of Angel's head before the ref forces him out. Hexx is to his feet, Angel is up and goes for a clothes line but Hexx ducks it and grabs Angel in a German suplex. Hexx rolls to his corner and makes the tag to Mimic.
Simon Daye: Great back and froth here in the beginning of this match. NAZI looks surprisingly competitive against the reigning tag team champions.
Jaymie Boone: Who are about to pass the Holland Brothers record reign as tag team champions.
Simon Daye: It seems like just yesterday Burns and Angel brought those titles over to the dark side, and here they are fighting the good fight, preparing to rape NAZI.
Jaymie Boone: GROSS! Who would want to see those clowns naked?
Simon Daye: What?
Angel is almost to his feet when Mimic grabs him in a swinging neck breaker. Mimic gets right up and drops double knees on Angel's back then locks him in a surf board submission stretch. Mimic arches his back trying to rip Angel's arms out of the sockets. Phil comes in from behind and hits Angel's finisher, the Revelations on Mimic, leaving him life less On he mat. Both Mimic and Angel begin to craw to their corners. Angel leaps and tags burns, Mimic just barely tags Hexx. Hexx runs at Burns and goes for a big clothes line that Burns ducks. Phil whips Hexx around and throws three hard right hands then hits the Burn Notice. Burns goes for the pin but once again Mimic makes the save.
Jaymie Boone: Mimic just barely saves his partner.
Simon Daye: NAZI needs to get into a grove if they think their going to be able to win tonight.
Jaymie Boone: Angel and Burns have over come some great tag teams in their time as champions, I don't think NAZI are going to be the ones to beat them.
NAZI double suplex Burns then they pull him up in a double power bomb. Angel comes flying off the top rope but NAZI catch him and plant him hard on the mat with a double spine buster. NAZI begin an early celebration as Hexx pins Burns. Phil kicks out just in time. Mimic now decides to head outside and he grabs one of the tag team titles. Angel is to his feet and sentons over the top rope to the outside, crashing into Mimic. Hexx rips Burns up by his hair and Burns hits a European Upper cut the rocks Hexx then he follows it up with a dragon sleeper DDT.
Simon Daye: Burns putting down Hexx with a dragon sleeper DDT. Man the action has been so fast paced thus far. Truly great tag team action.
Jaymie Boone: I heard a certain commentator say there were no red hot tag teams in wrestling anymore, guess he can't get his fat face out of the Bar Be Que long enough to watch an hour of Trauma every week.
Simon Daye: Whoever employs that moron should seriously consider firing him after such an asinine statement.
Jaymie Boone: I completely agree with you Simon.
Phil pulls Hexx up and scoop slams him, then drops an elbow across his chest. From there Burns throws a few more hard right hands into the face of Hexx. Phil gets up as Angel re enters the ring. Angel picks Hexx up and Phil goes off the ropes and comes in head butting Hexx right on the bridge of the nose. Angel then hits the Revelations. Phil goes for the pin but Mimic pulls the referee out of the ring. Mimic gets back up on the apron and slaps Angel hard across the face. Phil runs at him and Mimic slams Phil's head into the turnbuckle then guillotines him across the top rope. Hexx is barely to his feet, he collapses into the corner and tags Mimic in. The ref gets back in and warns Mimic. Burns shoulder blocks the back of Mimic's legs as Angel hits a standing drop kick.
Simon Daye: A team effort by Angel and Burns, which is what being the tag team champions is all about.
Jaymie Boone: These guys seriously look good together.
Phil hoists Mimic up on his shoulders, Angel climbs to the top rope and flies off with the Heaven's Fury bulldog, completing their team finisher, Heaven's Gates. Phil makes the pin.
Simon Daye: HEAVEN'S GATES!!!!
One.. Two.. Three!!!
Simon Daye: And chalk up another successful title defense for Burning Angels.
Jaymie Boone: nCw's tag team division looks to be all out of fresh challengers, and these two don't appear to be dropping those belts anytime soon.
Simon Daye: Well, whoever nCw finds to face them next, their gonna have their work cut out for them.
Jaymie Boone: Whats next on the card?
{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
Simon Daye: After that great match, where Angle and Burns defeated NAZI, we get this. Honcho tries to topple the Giant.... JackHammer.
Jayme Boone: Should be good, I'm pulling for Honcho to break Hammer's leg... that'd be awesome.
MATCH TWO
Mike Honcho vs. JackHammer
Singles Match
Holy Diver erupts the PA system. As Mike makes his way toward the ring. He gives all the "Honcho-Maniacs" high fives and he mimes basic magic tricks to live up his nickname, “The Magic Man”. As he enters the ring he does basic warm ups and stretches.
Simon Daye: And here comes Mike Honcho, the Magic man.
Jaymie Boone: I’m pretty sure he’s not “magic” unless his magical abilities include premature loss in the ring.
Simon Daye: That was kind of a low blow, Jaymie.
Ten Thousand Fists by Disturbed plays on the PA as JackHammer and Angel come through the curtain, Goliath right behind them they head down the ramp to the ring. Angel heads to the corner, Goliath stands behind Angel with his arms folded across his chest as JackHammer climbs the ring steps, he then stops at the top and raises his left fist sending pyros shooting out of the ring posts. JackHammer then steps into the ring over the top rope and removes his duster and bandana.
Jaymie Boone: And Admiral Jackass himself is coming out. He’s pissed off his own partner, Sexy Jason, a LOT lately. I wonder if he’s really changed that much from before he left.
Simon Daye: No low blows? Wow…
Jaymie Boone: Isn’t calling him admiral jackass a low blow?
Simon Daye: I guess it is.
The bell rings and both men stare each other down from opposite sides of the ring, before Hammer charges with his entire goliath frame. Honcho, the Magic man, runs away, using his speed as an advantage to keep from getting mauled by the big bear that is Hammer before he ducks between his legs and lands a fierce punch square in the back of Hammer. Honcho doesn’t seem to do any damage as Hammer spins around and clocks him square on the jaw with a massive spinning backfist. Honcho is knocked into the turnbuckles, and Hammer charges, looking to hit a shoulder thrust into the turnbuckles but Honcho escapes, leaving only the steel ring post for Hammer to collide into.
Simon Daye: And Hammer hits the post after attempting to just destroy the smaller Honcho.
Jaymie Boone: Yeah, Hammer doesn’t have to do much to win…but Honcho has to work his ass off just to survive, that’s how great the size differences are.
Honcho uses the opportunity presented by a slightly wounded and dazed Hammer to really start nailing the technical submission holds onto the one injured arm of JackHammer. He pulls the big man out, and grabs him by the injured shoulder, wrapping it around Hammer’s back for a Hammerlock but Hammer uses his free arm to just push the smaller man to the mat. Honcho isn’t deterred, he gets back up and grabs the wounded arm before jumping to the outside, wringing it on the ropes for a modified Arm Breaker. Hammer looks confused as he’s actually having himself taken on by such a small man, and Honcho gets to the top rope and leaps off, nailing a perfect Missile Dropkick directly to the injured shoulder as if he was trying to hit the small bulls-eye on Hammer’s body.
Jaymie Boone: And Honcho is using this opportunity to just wear down the one arm of JackHammer. Smart move to use against Admiral Jackass.
Simon Daye: Yes, it is, Jaymie. He’s showing how he, though smaller, can truly put the hurt on such a large man. He’s using that technical skill and thinking like his father, Maniac, to destroy Hammer’s one arm in hopes that it will keep him from using it against him later in the match.
Jaymie Boone: I don’t know how easy it is to powerbomb someone with a bum shoulder, but Hammer may soon have to find out if he wants to win this match.
Hammer is reeling, holding the bum shoulder as if he needs it in a sling after the assault of the steel ring post and Honcho, but he quickly shakes it off to just backhand Honcho into the mat. But Honcho doesn’t give up, he’s right back on his feet, only to get grabbed by the throat with Hammer’s one good arm, and lifted into the air for the patented, and massive, Earth Tremble.
Jaymie Boone: And there goes all chances of Honcho winning…Earth Tremble, this is the beginning of the end. Admiral Jackass will win…damnit.
Simon Daye: I thought you hated everyone?
Jaymie Boone: Not equally…I hate Hammer more than Honcho…
Simon Daye: Is it because every woman has a crush on Sexy Jason?
Jaymie Boone: No comment.
Hammer Covers; One…Two…THREE! NO! Honcho kicks out at the last second. There’s still some in the tank of Honcho and the crowd goes nuts. Everyone had counted Honcho out, and the Magic man pulls some more magic out just to give them all a little bit more.
Simon Daye: And Honcho is back up…that cheeky bastard is no-selling the Earth Tremble.
Jaymie Boone: You mean pulling a Cena?
Simon Daye: No…he oversells, I mean pulling a Hogan.
Honcho gets up and faces Hammer…though by face we all know staring down Hammer’s massive nipples. The fans get a little chuckle seeing this, as Honcho slowly looks up the massive frame of Hammer, who is none-too-pleased he just took the Earth Tremble without even showing hardly a sign of fatigue…but that’s the Magic man…he’s MAGIC! Honcho winds up and throws a punch at Hammer’s massive steeled abs, only to hurt himself more than anything. Hammer laughs, but the laugh is not for long as Honcho, quick as a cat, runs and springboards off the ropes, nailing a massive DDT on the giant. The fans erupt as he pins. One…Two…Kickout!
Simon Daye: Close call for Hammer there.
Jaymie Boone: You mean Admiral Jackass?
Hammer doesn’t get up right away, giving Honcho the perfect opportunity to wrap his body around the wounded arm in a Grapevine submission. However, the size difference is still so great that Hammer, using only his legs, stands up, making Honcho’s attempts completely moot. The fans gasp as Honcho is shaked off like water on a wet dog, plopping to the mat only to flop around like a fish out of water. Honcho rebounds like Shawn Michaels and is right back to his feet, the fans behind him 100%. He stares down Hammer’s nipples once again before slapping on a massive arm bar onto the immensely massive Hammer.
Simon Daye: ARM BAR! ARM BAR!
Jaymie Boone: Stop marking like a 4-year-old to Cena.
Honcho’s cocky look of confidence turns to one of fear as Hammer, with every last ounce of power in his injured arm, lifts up Honcho and delivers a massive EARTH SHATTER to the poor Diamond Dallas Honcho.
Jaymie Boone: Admiral Jackass got it…Honcho is screwed.
Simon Daye: And he was looking so good…
ONE! TWO! THREE! Hammer raises his un-injured arm, victorious over the smaller Honcho. He kicks the downed Honcho in the face once for good measure, firmly cementing the crowds newly-found hatred of the giant Chi Town Terror.

MATCH THREE
Joe Everyman vs. Kristoff Liam Bates
Elite 8 Match
The Pretender by the Foo Fighters starts blasting over the PA system. Pyros are going off on the stage all over the place. Joe Everyman then comes out onto the stage. He looks into the crowd, holding his arm up with belt in hand. Maria Williams walks out from behind Joe and looks into the crowd too. Joe gives Maria a kiss on the cheek as they both start to walk down the ramp. Joe Everyman and Maria Williams continue walking down the ramp looking into the crowd. Joe then comes to the end of the ramp and does a Brock Lesnar esk jump. Joe Everyman walks up the steps and climbs into the ring. He looks around in the crowd and hold up his arm. Then loud blue pyros shoot from the ring posts. Joe then stands and waits.
Simon Daye: Here is Joe Everyman.
Jaymie Boone: Can he advance to the next round?
The Perfect Drug by Nine Inch Nails comes on over the P.A. and Kristoff Liam Bates walks down the entrance ramp to a chorus of boos. They see him smiling at the fans from behind his thick glasses, but they all know he's just too damn normal for the freaks they are. He slides under the ropes and takes off his tie, coat, and unbuttons his shirt.
Simon Daye: Here is who Joe is facing tonight here on Trauma.
Jaymie Boone: Kristoff Liam Bates
Simon Daye: Should be interesting. Both men have the same idea...only one will get to advance.
Jaymie Boone: Who will it be?
The ref finishes up with checking over Kristoff. He goes over to the side of the ring and signals for the start of the match.
Simon Daye: Joe has the weigh advantage by 32 lbs can he use that you his advantage?
Both men begins to circle the ring. They are taking there time in locking up. They are checking each other out. Joe comes to the center of the ring and has his hand in the air.
Simon Daye: A test of strength maybe?
Kristoff looks at Joe and then at the fans. He is in the center of the ring. He goes to raise his hand up and then he puts it back down. The crowd is ok with that. Kristoff again raise his hand and the crowd is screaming no. Finally Kristoff and Joe locks both hands in the air. Joe takes advantage of the weight difference and send Kristoff to his knees. Joe is smiling. Kristoff fights to make it back on his feet. In fact Joe is the one that is on his knees now. Kristoff let go of Joe's hands and lock on a HEADLOCK Maria is cheering for Joe.*
Simon Daye: Kristoff got Joe to his knees and then went to work on Joe's head
Jaymie Boone: His hard head.
*Kristoff wrenches on the head as Joe makes it to his feet. Joe attempts to throw Kristoff into the ropes, but Kristoff would not have any of that. Kristoff again wrenches on Joe's head. This time Joe tries picking Kristoff up and dropping him backwards. Kristoff holds on to his head. Joe gets to his feet. Kristoff is slow to his feet. Once Kristoff is on his feet Joe grabs Kristoff's neck and nails a NECK BREAKER. Joe goes for the cover. The ref is in position. 1...2...KICKED out by Kristoff Liam Bates*

Joe gets to his feet and walks around the ring. Joe goes back over to Kristoff, where he has made it to his knees. Joe goes to grab Kristoff by the head and helps him to his feet. Kristoff had other plans. He plants his head under Joe's chin and drops down. Joe falls to the mat holding onto his chin. Maria looks worried*
Simon Daye: Can Kristoff get back into the match
Jaymie Boone: I don't see anyone outside of the ring.
Simon Just looks at Jaymie with a confused look. He thought about explaining but decided they did not have enough time
*Kristoff gets to his feet. He goes over to Joe and ELBOW DROP right to the forehead. Kristoff gets up and again ELBOW DROP to the forehead. Joe is holding onto his forehead. Joe tries to get away from Kristoff. Kristoff grabs Joe's legs and turns him over and applies BOSTON CRAB. Joe is screaming in pain. He grabs for his forehead*
Simon Daye: Is he screaming in pain because of the Elbow Drops or is he screaming in pain due to the Boston Crab?
Jaymie Boone: Say what?
Simon Daye: You and Joe must be related
Jaymie Boone: I did not know Joe Everyman and I were related
Simon again shakes his head
Simon Daye: Joe sorry about that
*Joe is trying to reach for the ropes. He is close but then again so far away. Kristoff is leaning further back towards Joe's back to apply more pressure. The ref is right there asking Joe if he wants to give up. Joe is shaking his head no and screaming NO! Maria is encouraging Joe not to give up
Simon Daye: There is too must at stake to give up now
Joe again tries to reach for the ropes. He is only inches away from reaching the ropes. Kristoff is now sitting on Joe's back. Joe screams in pain again. Joe raises his hand.
Simon Daye: You got to be kidding. Joe is going to tap out.
Joe uses what strength he had and pulled himself closer to the ropes, he grabs and just barely grabs onto the bottom rope. Ref asks for a clean break and Kristoff releases the hold*
Simon Daye: Both men is giving it their all tonight

Simon: What damage did the Boston Crab have on Joe? Could it been enough to where Joe goes out.

The ref is right there checking on Joe. The ref raises Joe's hand and it drops. The ref signals 1. The ref raises Joe's hand a second time and it drops. The ref signals with 2 fingers.

Jaymie Boone: Could Joe be my cousin

{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}
Simon Daye: Up next, is a match I’ve always wanted to see.
Jayme Boone: What? Steve Awesome vs. Adam Knite? We’ve seen that before.
Simon Daye: Yeah, but they always seem to end in controversy. Maybe for this Trauma main event we will finally see a real winner.
Jayme Boone: Yeah, we’ll see.
MAIN EVENT
Adam Knite vs. Steve Awesome
Singles Match
The lights fade to black as a single guitar note blares over the P.A system much like Orton’s old theme. As the drums kick in the lights begin to flash from black to red on beat. Then the guitar begins to rip a good solo as Ronnie Winter starts to wail on the mic.
“YYYYYEEEAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!”
It’s at this point that Steve Awesome comes blasting through the black curtain with a huge amount of energy, holding his National Championship high in the air. He beats on his Resistance T-shirt and throws his arms in the air before walking down to the ring.
Simon Daye: Steve Awesome looks ready to go, but you have to wonder if that head injury is going to effect him here tonight.
Jayme Boone: Against the world champion Adam Knite? You better believe it.
{The opening of "Days Without" by All That Remains hits the PA system and the fans begin booing already. The song picks up as screams are heard throughout the arena.}
And now destined to be
The last one standing here
The past alive to me
And mocking hope is all I had
In weakness it hides from me
And then it infiltrates my heart
{pyros blast off accross the stage Adam Knite steps out onto the ramp with his arms out by his side with a cocky almost mocking smile across his face.}
So wrong to think I had found
It was so long since I felt that at all
I had dreamed long in days without
I had so long wanted something much more
Those looks so lovingly caressed
My thoughts and still today
They scream to me
Their sweet warmth moistening my breath
{Adam walks to the ring soaking in the fans boos, he gets half way down before sprinting to the ring and sliding in. Knite immediately runs to the nearest corner and climbs up holding out his arms for the fans to look at him. After a brief stay on the turnbuckles, Adam jumps off and waits for the match to begin}
Simon Daye: And there’s the world champion. The current and former world champions collide here on Trauma. You ready Jayme?
Jayme Boone: You act like I care. I’m just here to watch cute boys wrestle each other.
Simon Daye: You sicken me.
Steve and Adam begin to circle in the ring, each man sizing the other up, trying to decide the perfect strike. Awesome shoots in first ducking a clothesline attempt from the world champion and then goes behind him. Steve wraps his arms and hit’s a quick belly to back suplex putting Adam Knite back first into the mat. Steve bounces of the ropes but Adam flips to his chest forcing Steve to jump over him. Steve keeps running to the ropes and comes back from the other side and Adam pops up and catches the National Champion with a power slam! Adam doesn’t let up as he grabs Steve by the head and starts pulling him back to his feet, but Steve starts to battle back with elbows. He breaks loose of Adams grip and pops him with a European uppercut, another one, kicks him in the gut and drops Adam Knite with a ddt.
Simon Daye: Back and forth action here tonight!
Jayme Boone: yeah…..you look like you’d be into that.
Adam Knite is trying to shake off the cobwebs as Steve comes back after him again. Adam starts to climb to his feet and Steve meets him half way with a head lock. Awesome jerks and pulls on Adams head but Adam manages to reverse into a back suplex and Steve goes up and falls back down right on his head!
Simon Daye: Oh no! All Steve Awesome’s weight on the injured skull.
Jayme Boone: hey wow…he’s even cute when he’s possibly concussed.
Awesome has a far away look in his eye but he shakes it off after a few moments. Steve starts pulling himself up using the ropes and Adam helps him by flinging his upper body up and then nails Steve in the head with the point of his elbow. Awesome staggers back and Adam rushes in and nails another one for good measure, followed up with an arm wrench and hook kick combo. Boom! The heel of Adam’s boot right to the head of Steve and down he goes.
Simon Daye: That’s not good for Steve Awesome.
Jayme Boone: Wait he’s getting up!…..oh…you know that turned me on.
Awesome is indeed pulling himself back up to his feet. Adam Knite is just chuckling to himself. He must have thought Steve was stupid for even trying it. Adam Knite walks over to where Steve was and just kicks him in the gut, grabbing him by what was left of his hair. The crowd are booing him but he didn’t care and then he stuffs Steve’s head between his legs.
Simon Daye: Oh no! Not the piledriver! Not on his injured head.
Jayme Boone: Oh I can’t look!
Adam nods his head, a sinister smile on his face. He goes to lift Steve but Steve quickly kneels down on one knee before he could. Adam tries to do again but Steve is trying to fight out of it. Adam gives up on the piledriver and just drops more elbows on Steve’s head. Then Adam brings up a brutal knee that puts Steve to the mat.
Simon Daye: That was nasty!
Adam walks over and wraps Steve up in a sleeper hold, trying to squeeze the life out of him. Steve’s head must be throbbing now. All that pressure being applied. Steve tries to fight out of it but he slowly starts to fade. Shortly after, the face of the franchise becomes almost lifeless and the referee begins the hand count.
Simon Daye: Oh man….Steve Awesome looks out of it.
The ref raises Steve’s hand once and it just falls back to his side. The ref raises it a second time and it falls back to his side. He raises it a third time……and suddenly there’s life left! The crowd start stomping there feet as Steve somehow starts to battle back to his. He nails an elbow after elbow and finally Adam staggers back allowing Steve to somehow hit a vicious super kick from out of nowhere!
Simon Daye: Jawbreaker! Jawbreaker! He hit it!
Steve falls and collapses on Adam. The ref gets down for the count. Everyone counts in unison.
Crowd: One!
Simon Daye: Two!
Jayme Boone: THREE!
Simon Daye: Wait! No! Adam Knite got his foot on the rope! Damn….he got it at the last second possible! He managed to save this match for himself for now.
Both men lay in the middle of the ring, tired, hurt. Awesome pulls himself off of Adam and leans against the ropes trying to come up with a new plan when suddenly out of the corner of his eye he spots a stage crew member at ringside trying to hand him some sort of picture frame. The crew member just shrugs and says “Here…I was told to give you this” and he just leaves. Awesome flips the frame over to see the picture inside. It was a family portrait! With Harold and Hope and Jackie Bate’s head superimposed on another body! Awesome stares at it and shakes his head and right when he turns around…..BOOM! KNITES OF THE ROUND! Adam Knite hooks both legs,
1.……
2.……
3!
Simon Daye: After that distraction Adam Knite picks up the win.
Jayme Boone: Whats the deal with Harold and Steve’s family? I think it’s pretty weird.
Adam Knite leaves the picture frame next to Steve’s head as he limps out of the match…happy he eeked one out of the National Champion.
