International Championship Wrestling

QualitySoft

I started International Championship Wrestling because of some circumstances outside of my control. August 22nd 2005, a day that Triple H will come to regret. The day he got me fired from my job with the WWE's creative. His reasons were obvious. I was the only person on the team who even was a wrestling fan. I knew the history of the business and I remembered all the storylines. The WWE sucked like crazy because the creative team was filled with idiots. Triple H didn't like me because I wanted to depush him into just another midcarder until Wrestlemania 22.

That morning, I found out that my computer account at work had been writing storylines telling the wrestlers to advertise Total Nonstop Action, the WWE's competitor. Triple H had planted it on my machine to ensure that I got fired.

Many wrestlers were pissed off but unwilling to lose their job by standing up for me. I had left and gone home when I recieved a fax.

A wrestler, on the condition of anonymity, had sent a little over $1 million to my bank account and told me to start my own wrestling promotion with it. After legal fees, I was left with just a million bucks. It was only enough to start a really small indy fed, but there was still hope if I could do what no other Indy was capable of doing, make money.

I decided to take the gamble, calling the fed International Championship Wrestling. Paul Levesque, I don't care if it takes a month or 20 years, I'm going to run you and the WWE into bankrupcy.

THE ARENA

September 30th 2005

5:30 PM

I arrived at the arena that I booked for ICW's monthly shows and as I was getting ready to book the show I decided to look at what had happened in the past month throughout the wrestling world.

Global Promotions

WWE

Image: 79%
Owner: Linda McMahon
Top 5 stars: John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Batista, The Undertaker and Chris Jericho

WWE is returning to the old model of joint PPVs each month to compete with TNA. Raw's most recent rating is a 6.05. Smackdown's most recent rating is a 6.18 (which we're competing with tonight). Velocity is getting a 4.49 rating. Heat is getting a 5.19 rating. These are some of the highest ratings in years for wrestling, so Spike TV has made a huge deal with WWe to screw USA Network and TNA over. Raw, Velocity and Heat will remain on Spike TV for good. They fired a good chunk of their roster at the beginning of the month, but they rehired Brock Lesnar & Matt Hardy as well as hiring Frank Shamrock & Johnny Smith following Unforgiven. Unforgiven drew a 1.75 buyrate which is huge. It means that the show was percieved as 75% better than average.

National Promotions

TNA

Image: 94%
Owner: Dixie Carter
Top 5 stars: Jeff Jarrett, Raven, Jeff Hardy, Rhino and Sabu

TNA is quickly becoming competition to the WWE. Impact draws an abysmal 0.66 and Xplosion draws an even worse 0.55 but TNA is close to going global following a Pay Per View that got a 0.77 buyrate, huge for a promotion that has practically no TV shows. The Spike TV deal is off, but they may be looking for somewhere to air a new show.

I didn't bother looking up the rest of the Indy feds. Instead I just found out their order of popularity.

3.Ring of Honor
4.Combat Zone Wrestling
5.Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre
6.Asistencia Asesoria y Administracion
7.Pro Wrestling Guerrilla
8.Heartland Wrestling Association
9.Jersey All Pro Wrestling
10.Ultimate Pro Wrestling
11.International Wrestling Cartel
12.IWA: Puerto Rico
13.USA Xtreme Wrestling
14.NWA: Anarchy
15.World Wrestling Council
16.All Pro Wrestling
17.Border City Wrestling
18.Pro Wrestling Unplugged
19.Georgia Championship Wrestling
20.International Wrestling Syndicate
21.East Coast Wrestling Association
22.NWA: Cyberspace
23.World Xtreme Wrestling
24.Ring of Glory
25.Chaotic Wrestling (canceled show)
26.Full Impact Pro
27.NWA: Pro Wrestling Express
28.Elite Wrestling Revolution
29.CHIKARA
30.Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling (canceled show)
31.World League Wrestling (TV show dropped by Pax TV)
32.International Championship Wrestling

Our Image is up 4% to 5%. We are nowhere near a regional promotion yet, so we cannot get a TV show. This is definitely due to our advertising, which we spent $100,000 on this month.

Akio

Akio used to work for the WWE but was released about 3 months ago. His no compete clause just expired so he can wrestle on the next show. He is a heel with a highlight reel gimmick as part of an evil Japanese stable. His tag partner is Sakoda.

Ax & Smash

These guys were known as Demolition in the WWE about 15-20 years ago. They won the WWE Tag Titles 3 times defeating many legendary teams. Ax was fired by the WWE and Smash had to play the character of Repo Man, a thief. They are considered by many to be LOD ripoffs. Due to legal reasons, they will be known as Ax & Smash here in ICW and will be a face tag team.

Birchill

Birchill is a 300 pound monster who can do high flying moves. He has the talent to be a major player here in ICW. He's a heel and the best wrestler in ICW.

Christopher Idol

Christopher Idol is the announcer and part time wrestler that we hired. He's a mediocre technical wrestler with below average high flying ability. He will be promoted as the evil authority figure in ICW.

Great Muta

Great Muta is a young Japanese wrestler with no relation to the legendary Keiji Muto who used the same name. He will be a face with a ninja gimmick. He also is a talented all-around wrestler.

Kevin Steen

Kevin Steen is a talented Cruiserweight wrestler who also works for CZW. I'm OK with him doing that as long as he doesn't end up injured because of the garbage wrestling that they do in that promotion. He is an arrogant heel.

The Altar Boys (Luke & Matthew)

These guys are gothic figures in other promotions, but I thought they'd be perfect for a religious tag team. They are faces dedicated to spreading Christianity not only in the locker room but also in the crowd. They also happen to be decent high flyers.

Roderick Strong

Strong is a all-around talented heel who is promoted on his wrestling ability.

Ryuji Ito

Ito is Akio & Sakoda's boss. He is obsessed with them winning the tag team titles. He is an evil foreigner who happens to be a talented wrestler.

Sakoda

Sakoda used to work for WWE but was only there for a few months. He is a talented all-around wrestler who is Akio's tag partner. He is a heel promoted on his wrestling ability.

Suave Eddie

Eddie is known as Sexxxy Eddy in CZW, but I thought the name was stupid so I made it Suave Eddie. He's the second most talented wrestler in ICW and he'll be a face with a gimmick of being a star in adult films.


I called all of them into my office for the booking meeting, but first I had to give them some instructions.

Me: Tonight, we are going head-to-head with the highest rating show on TV, Smackdown. While I only booked 4 matches for tonight's show, I expect the show to take at least 5 hours. The show starts exactly at 6 o'clock so be ready. Here's what we're doing tonight.

The booking meeting continued after that but I'm not going to tell you what else was said. Not only were the wrestlers in the room but also our staff were there too.

Announcer: Sly Stone
Referee: Mike Hunter
Production: The Sound Guy
Medical: Roger LaFlame
Writers: Grace Morales & Jack Sabbath
Road Agent: Steve Nickerson

The next update will be the show, entitled Wrestling Classic. That was an old WWE PPV name that they aren't using anymore so we trademarked it and it will be our Wrestlemania.

QualitySoft

The shows are all written up and only booked on EWR to add to the writing. I frequent EWB and have read much of the work posted there so you might be able to see how some of it influenced me if you look at it.

Wrestling Classic I

September 30th 2005

Starting @ 6 PM


Video Package

Voice: Tonight is the biggest night in the history of professional wrestling. Men will wage wars and bleed tonight to build a legacy. But to build their legacy, they must win the ultimate prize, a championship belt. And to do that will be almost impossible because these men will have to defeat the greatest ever to become a legend. Because tonight is the biggest event of them all, The Wrestling Classic.

The video package was mostly bullshit, but it sure sounds alot better than telling the truth about our promotion and wrestlers. It was voiced over by our production guy.


Christopher Idol Promo in-ring

Sly Stone talked about how big the show is from the announce table while Christopher Idol got into the ring.

Christopher: I'm sure all of you expected me to come out here tonight and tell you that you're going to see me kick somebody's ass, but that's not going to happen. I'm here to tell all of your poor asses what's going to happen on this show tonight. I'm the spokesman of the ICW Board of Directors, so I'm out here to reveal the card for tonight's event. Tonight the legendary 3-time Big W Tag Team Champions Ax & Smash are going to take on the Altar Boys, Luke & Matthew and 2 guys from Japan named Akio & Sakoda for the ICW Tag Team Titles in a TLC match. This could be the crowning accomplishment in one of these teams' careers. You'll also see my good friend, the monster Birchill take on the porn star, Suave Eddie in a Tables match. You'll also see a 10-man Battle Royal for the ICW World Title featuring every ICW megastar except for the ICW Tag Team Champions and more importantly, ME. I have a title shot whenever I want it instead. You'll also see a 4 Way Elimination match between Great Muta, Kevin Steen, Roderick Strong and Ryuji Ito for the number 10 entry in the Battle Royal. That's what you're going to see tonight whether you like it or you don't because the ICW Board of Directors said so.

The crowd popped at the mention of Table match and TLC match and some people popped for Ax & Smash, but the crowd spent most of the segment booing Christopher Idol, which is just how it should be.

Overall: 60%
Christopher Idol debuted his new gimmick (Authority Figure), it got a positive response. Christopher Idol gained 2 points of overness from this segment.

Suave Eddie Video

Christopher Idol returned to the announce table as Sly Stone announced that we have a Suave Eddie video to show you.

The camera is in a bedroom.

Eddie: Hello Ladies, Eddie's here to make all of you happy. That's why I came here to the University of Southern California. Today is September 1st, but I'll be at the arena in New York City by the time you see this tape. Ladies, who's the hottest guy you've ever seen?

The Ladies all together: Suave Eddie

Eddie: Now get in this bed and I'll sleep with all of you tonight.

They get into the bed and just as that happens, the video ends because I didn't want to air a porn video on a wrestling program.

Overall: 65%

Birchill VS Suave Eddie - Tables Match

Sly Stone and Christopher Idol hype this matches rules. In ICW, a Tables match is fall-count-anywhere and you have to put your opponent through a table then immediately pin them for a count of 3.

Me: You guys just go out there and call a great match in the ring. I want the fall we discussed to happen 30 minutes into the match. You guys can do anything else you want out there.

Birchill's music hit and he made his way out to the ring to boos. Eddie's cooler than Birchill because of the porn video. Then Eddie's music hit and the crowd popped. Eddie had some porno music while Birchill had a song that fit a monster.

The match started off with the 2 men trading holds. Birchill had more leverage, but Eddie held his own at the technical game. Both men were trying to knock out the other with a submission, but after a few minutes both men figured out they couldn't win the mat game, so they decided to try the brawl and fly style. Birchill dominated this phase, so Eddie decided to go to the hardcore style. Eddie started trying to knock Birchill out onto a table. Eddie hit a Chair Shot that knocked Birchill onto the table. Eddie came off the Top Rope with a Five Star Porn Splash that put the big man through the table.

...three-quarters

Birchill had kicked out Eddie tried to do damage on Birchill using a Headlock. Birchill powered out as Stone was wondering if he was about to pass out. He slammed Eddie into the mat and hit a Standing Star Press and locked Eddie in an armbar. The armbar worked great and did the damage on Eddie. Eddie tried to fight as Birchill went to stick him on the table, but couldn't do it so Eddie was put on the table. Birchill hit the C4 to send him through the table then made a cover.

Birchill has won the match. Birchill beat-down Eddie more after the fall. Christopher Idol and Sly Stone wondered if Eddie would be able to make it into the Battle Royal.

These men impressed me with what they were capable of coming up with in the ring. I don't think any other match on the card can top that.

Crowd: 37%
Match: 97% (***1/2)
Overall: 68%
Birchill debuted his new gimmick (Monster), it got a positive response. Suave Eddie debuted his new gimmick (Adult Film Star), it got a negative response.

Altar Boys Promo in-ring

The Altar Boys made their way down to the ring for the ICW Tag Team Championship TLC match and had some things to say.

Luke: I am Luke, 1 half of the Altar Boys and we are here tonight to talk to each and every one of you about a very important decision that you need to make.

Matthew: I am Matthew. We'll cut right to the chase. Around 2000 years ago, there lived a man by the name of Jesus Christ.

He was God's son whom He sent to Earth to die for our sins.

That means that all of us can go to Heaven when we die as long as we become Christians

And what does that mean Brother Matthew?

That means that you pray to God, go to church and live your life for God.

Jesus Christ is the answer to your problems, become a Christian today.

These guys half-assed that promo. They weren't happy about their gimmick and had seen me about it before the show. I didn't know they sucked this much on the mic. I bet they didn't achieve my goal of promoting local churches in exchange for them advertising us. The crowd was about 50/50. They should have all been lining up to become Christians. So I can tell you for a fact that they'll be gone before the next show. Look for them to be jobbed out in the Battle Royal.

Overall: 37%
Luke debuted his new gimmick (Religious Zealot), it got a positive response. Matthew debuted his new gimmick (Religious Zealot), it got a positive response. Matthew gained 3 points of overness from this segment.

Ax & Smash VS Akio & Sakoda (with Ryuji Ito) VS The Altar Boys in a TLC match for the ICW Tag Team Titles

I had scrapped a pre-taped backstage segment with Akio, Sakoda & Ito prior to the show because it turned out to suck badly.

Me: You guys are going close to an hour. Make sure you do the spots we laid out and put on a quality match. The referee is listening to this as well and will instruct the Altar Boys on how this match will be done.

Ax & Smash came out to the ring with their old opening from the "Big W" to an ovation. Akio, Sakoda & Ito came out to the ring. They called themselves Team Japan in the segment, but that wasn't going to make it into the show. They need an interpreter to handle their interviews. That man will be made the leader of the group once he's signed to replace the Altar Boys.

The rules are that you must grab the belts off the top rope then secure a pinfall or submission on another team to win the match. Your opponents can pin your team or even the opposing team as well as well, sending the team that was not involved in the fall out of the match for 5 minutes or until somebody grabs the belts (re-attached by the referee) again, whichever happens first.

This match started out with Ax & Smash demolishing everybody around them. They used every weapon they could get ahold of. Eventually The Altar Boys decided to team up with Akio, Sakoda & Ito to 5-on-2 Ax & Smash. That led to Ax & Smash both being thrown off the entrance ramp. That makes this a 3-on-2 match now basically. Akio & Sakoda threw around the Altar Boys like they were nothing. Everytime they'd go for the belts they'd get stopped by the Altar Boys who made a recovery. Sly wondered if Akio & Sakoda could put away the Altar Boys. Then they hit Double STOs on both Altar Boys to knock them both out. Akio grabbed the belts and hit an Akiosault onto Luke.

...one-half

Luke was saved by Smash, who had arrived in the ring. Ax showed up shortly thereafter and the men battled to the next fall. They had been knocked out for at least 40 minutes. Ax & Smash beat the crap out of all 5 men for about a minute then hit a Decapitation Elbow on Luke and Ax covered as Smash dealt with all 4 other men thanks to a steel chair.

Akio & Sakoda were forced to sit out for 5 minutes or until the belts were grabbed again. Ax & Smash didn't bother fooling around as Smash went up top and grabbed the belts as Ax knocked out and covered Matthew for the potential deciding fall.

...1
...2
...3

Ax & Smash are the first ever ICW Tag Team Champions. They were ecstatic after winning the belts and celebrated all over the ring. Christopher Idol and Sly Stone talk about how it is the crowning accomplishment of these men's careers.

I chose Ax & Smash to win the match because I felt they deserved it. It is starting to look like the Battle Royal may have to go 2 and a half hours or so but I'm hoping to figure something out that can eat up the time and entertain the fans.

Crowd: 44%
Match: 84% (**1/4)
Overall: 64%
Ax debuted his new gimmick (Power and Paint), it got a positive response. Smash debuted his new gimmick (Power and Paint), it got a positive response. The ICW Tag Team titles have gained in image. Luke is losing overness because of his weak gimmick. Matthew is losing overness because of his weak gimmick.

The Steen Show

Kevin Steen made his way down to the ring. This segment is going to be focused around Steen who is hosting ICW's talk show. The fact that the Elimination Match only has 1 face is going to be proven here. I guess we'll be hiring some jobbers to replace The Altar Boys because we don't have enough faces or enough money to hire people who have wrestling talent. Ax, Smash, Muta & Eddie just don't cut it.

Steen: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the Steen Show, the best talk show in the history of professional wrestling. I'm sure each and every one of you recognizes my greatness. Tonight after I win the 4-Man Elimination Match, I will win the Battle Royal from the number 10 entry because I'm that damn good. On this show, I am God. Who am I kidding? The guy who says those lines is a total retard. I'm cool, I'm a legend and I'm gonna win MY World Title tonight. Without further ado, I will bring out my guest for tonight, a man whom I will go through on my way to becoming the ICW World Champion, a man from Japan known by his nickname, The Great Muta.

The Great Muta's J-Pop theme that I got made for him plays as the young star makes his way to the ring.

OK, Crappy Muta. I'll get to my questions now. Why do you think you can compete with somebody as great as me?

Muta: Great Muta buhlieve that Great Muta con compete wit you because Great Muta is a ninjuh.

Your ninja costume probably cost $1 at the local flea market.

Great Muta did-ent get ninjuh cloze fraum flea mar-ket.

Oh, I almost forgot. My other guest tonight, Paul Birchill.

Birchill's music hits as the monster makes his way to the ring.

Paul, I'm a big fan of yours. I loved what you did earlier tonight to that piece of crap that calls himself Eddie.

Birchill: I AM A BIG FAN OF YOURS, Kevin. YOU ARE THE EPITOME OF COOL. SOMETHING I CAN NEVER BE. BECAUSE I WAS BORN A MONSTER. I HAVE TO DESTROY PEOPLE.

What do you think of Crappy Muta, Paul?

I think he's a Jet Li wannabe who's ASS I WANT TO KICK.

Mista Birchill-san, Great Muta fihnd your comments unaccepta-bull.

I didn't ask you to talk, toddler. Now you better shut your trap before I do it for you.

Muta shut up immediately after that comment.

Very good of you, Crappy Muta. You obeyed me for a change. Now Birchill, What do you desire more, the ICW Tag Team titles or the ICW World Title.

I WANT THE WORLD TITLE and what I want, I ALWAYS GET.

I also want that title and that means that you are shit out of luck Paulie.

I WILL BE CHAMPION.

I will win the match.

NO, I WILL.

You're wrong.

NO, YOU'RE WRONG.

No, you are.

I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I?

Let's drop that subject, Paulie. What's important is that one of us will win tonight.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

Let's kick Toddler's ass.

They both jump Muta and beat him down. Muta is unable to get any offense in as both of them beat the shit out of him. The announcers are quick to point out that Muta may have to be pulled out of the match.

Steen impressed me out there with how good he parodied Chris Jericho. I don't have any problem with any WWE "superstar" other than Triple H, so I hope they don't get pissed off that I'm doing parodies of them. I told him to say Triple H's catchphrases and then insult Triple H because I thought it would be funny and he deserves it. I like the idea of portraying Birchill as a dark monster character. He doesn't have the charisma to be anything else without a manager.

Overall: 51%
Great Muta debuted his new gimmick (Ninja), it got a positive response. Kevin Steen gained 1 point of overness from this segment. Great Muta gained 1 point of overness from this segment.

Backstage

After Steen, Birchill and Muta left the ring, Sly Stone informed the crowd that we have a disturbance backstage. He talked about how a camera would get back there as soon as possible. During the meantime, the announcers hype the 4-Man Elimination match and the Battle Royal.

Christopher: We have finally gotten a camera backstage. Look at the video screen to see what's happening

Footage is shown (pretaped of course) of Suave Eddie being found in a hallway knocked out. The EMTs take him to the hospital. The announcers wonder if he'll be capable of participating in the match tonight and they also want to know who did it. I'll probably debut somebody soon who will take responsibility for the attack and I'm not repeating it without the person being caught in the act.

Overall: 66%
Suave Eddie gained 1 point of overness from this segment.

Roderick Strong VS Kevin Steen VS Great Muta VS Ryuji Ito (with Akio & Sakoda) in an Elimination Match for Number 10 entry in the Battle Royale

Backstage, I talked to the wrestlers beforehand.

Me: You guys need to put on a classic out there. We have to get this one over with the crowd. I want you guys to take up about an hour or so. I want a battle royal to go close to 2 hours, not 3. You all heard me tell you about the rules. Each of every one of you will be out there. Go with the finishes I laid out. Call the rest in the ring.

Great Muta makes the first entrance. He is the only face in this match because of our problems finding faces. Then Ryuji Ito came down to the ring with the co-members of Team Japan, Akio & Sakoda. Then some generic music hit and out came the debuting Roderick Strong.

Roderick: I know you people think I like you, but the fact of the matter is that I don't like you people. You don't give a damn if I put on a great match or not. All you want to cheer in this company are 2 guys from the Renaissance Faire, a ninja, a freaking porn star and a group of boring Christians. I'm going to put on a great match anyway because it's my job.

I needed to establish him as a heel by having him diss all the faces. Otherwise, people would not have known how to react to Roderick Strong and that would ruin any chance of him drawing heat. After him, out came the final participant Kevin Steen. He came out with his new bodyguard Birchill. The referee started this match. I bet he's tired out by now after spending about an hour and a half running matches. I hope he doesn't want a pay raise after the show because of how hard he's worked for us.

In this match, only 2 men are in the ring at a time and those 2 can tag anybody else to get out of the ring. Eliminations are by pinfall or submission only and the sole survivor gets the number 10 entry in the Battle Royal, hyped by the announcers as the toughest match you can ever participate in. They hype the importance of number 10 entry.

Great Muta started in the ring with Roderick. They started out doing technical wrestling and then Roderick cowardly tagged out to Steen. Steen was the fresh man so he beat up on Muta for a while and tagged Ito. Ito did the same and tagged Strong. They repeated for a while with occasional interference from Birchill, Akio & Sakoda. This match is pretty much a 6-on-1 handicap match for the time being. Muta can't even tag out because the other guys will move out of the way if he's there. As Ito was in the ring against Muta, Muta hit the Diving Lariat and / or Ninja Kick on everybody except Steen and made the cover on Ito.

Ito was eliminated. Akio, Sakoda & Ito were required to go backstage or be fired under ICW rules. If you are ringside with somebody and they are eliminated you are fired if you stay at ringside. The announcers hype that so Team Japan goes backstage. In came Kevin Steen. Steen went after Muta. Birchill was there ready to aid but Roderick had to remain on the apron. After Muta got in a little offense, Strong got tagged in with a hot tag. This wasn't your typical hot tag because Strong got beat up instead. Birchill and Steen also got move after move from Muta. Muta tried using everything in his arsenal but the only thing that knocked Strong out was a Diving Lariat. He made the cover.

That left it 1-on-1. About 25 minutes in, it was Muta VS Steen. Muta and Steen wrestled a straight match from there on out. After a while of back and forth action, Muta hit a bunch of big moves then hit his usual finishers. He made the cover.

Birchill saved Steen. Birchill set up Muta for a powerbomb and hit it. Then hit the Standing Star Press and stuck Steen on top of him.

Muta miraculously kicked out of the pin. The announcers wondered if either man could win. Birchill kept running interference. Steen & Birchill decided to introduce a baseball bat to Muta's face. Birchill is British so he shouldn't be using a baseball bat so I had Steen do that spot. Steen didn't know how to swing a bat when I talked to him about the match so we paid a Little League coach to teach him how to hit the ball to make it believeable. He made a mediocre swing but it didn't matter. At least it looked like he had played Little League Baseball. Muta sold it like crazy. Steen followed up the baseball bat with a Package Piledriver and then his signature Picture Purfect Moonsault. He stayed on him for the cover.

The match is over and Steen has won. He celebrates with Birchill all the way backstage.

These men impressed me with their performance. Steen ended up winning because I like the character I created for him. I'm hoping Steen and Birchill can continue to entertain me.

10 Man Battle Royal for ICW World Title

Christopher Idol, who doubles as ring announcer told the crowd that it is now time for the 10 Man Battle Royal. The rules are quite different from other promotions. You eliminate a person by pinfall, submission or knockout, with falls count anywhere rules. 2 men start in the ring and a new man enters every 10 minutes. The Last Man Standing is the ICW World Champion. Stone and Idol put us over by dissing the competition for their over-the-top-rope eliminations. I got ahold of the guys backstage.

Me: You guys are following this script for the match. Study it really closely. The referee already knows the script so ask him questions. If he doesn't know it, I'll fill him in. The times of the falls are scripted and so is the entry order. You guys must make the falls when you are supposed to so this match turns out correctly. [points at 2 wrestlers] You 2 better get out to the ring right now. [they go toward the ramp] You guys know we've got about 2 hours left so you'll need to go 40 minutes following Kevin's entry.

Birchill's music hit and he made his entrance. Birchill is the number 1 entry. Great Muta's music hit and he's coming out with Ax & Smash, the ICW Tag Team Champions. Great Muta is the number 2 entry.

Ax & Smash stay outside of the ring as Muta and Birchill start wrestling. Muta tried to use the Collar & Elbow Tieup on Birchill but the big man countered after a little while. Birchill & Muta focused on mat wrestling. Stone says that they are trying to wear each other down. Birchill starts getting a little more aggressive, throwing punches. Muta isn't very good at the brawling style so he doesn't focus much on punches but gives him generic technical wrestling moves. Just as Muta hit a Ninja Kick, some generic Christian music plays as one half of everybody's favorite sucky tag team, Matthew makes his way to the ring.

Matthew of the Altar Boys is the number 3 entry. Matthew gets in no offense as Muta does the damage on him. Birchill adds in a little eventually, hitting a powerbomb through a table outside the ring. Muta hits a Ninja Kick but Birchill goes after Muta. Birchill and Muta brawl for a while. Matthew tries to attack Birchill a few times but gets thrown around like he's nothing by the 300 pound monster from Great Britain. Muta & Birchill's brawl continues until the generic Christian music goes off again and the other Altar Boy, Luke makes his way to the ring.

Luke of the Altar Boys is the number 4 entry. Luke shows up and Birchill chases him as soon as he arrives. Muta beats up on Matthew. Birchill powerbombs Luke and puts him in an armbar. Luke taps out real fast. Luke has been eliminated but Birchill won't release the hold. Birchill keeps it on for about 8 minutes while Matthew's still getting destroyed by Muta. The announcers say that Luke's arm may be broken. This angle was something I came up with to ensure that the Altar Boys got jobbed out. The fall took place in 6 seconds and the hold lasted so long that it "broke" Luke's arm. They deserve it for that terrible interview they put on tonight. In other news, Birchill clotheslines Muta and easily gives Matthew a shoulder breaker. He then locks the Indian Deathlock on Matthew. Matthew taps out quickly. Muta breaks the hold after about a minute but the damage was done even more thanks to a shot with a TV camera. He uses a sledgehammer on Matthew who's also injured by Birchill. The Altar Boys didn't even get any offense in during this match. They have been jobbed out in the battle royal to the monster Birchill. Some generic Japanese music hit as Team Japan's Akio makes his way to the ring.

Akio is the number 5 entry. 30 minutes into the match, the Altar Boys have had their "career ended" and Muta & Birchill are wrestling at a high level. Akio is a welcome addition as he works with Birchill against Muta. After about 5 minutes of this match being 2-on-1, Akio hit an Akiosault on Muta and went for the cover.

The pinfall had been broken up by Ax. Ax & Smash are there to "even the odds" for Muta. Christopher Idol talked about how impressive Birchill has been tonight. He mentioned how he ended 2 careers within 10 minutes. Birchill's buddy Kevin Steen is backstage waiting to come out as the number 10 entry. A typical 3 way brawl broke out as Akio, Muta & Birchill were all trying to damage each other enough to get the fall. Nobody was able to hit a big move for the next few minutes until the number 6 entry. Some generic music hit as Roderick Strong made his way to the ring.

Roderick Strong is the number 6 entry Roderick stayed on the entrance ramp since that is legal under ICW rules. He can still lose up there if other people decide to go after him. Birchill used the distraction to lower Muta into an armbar and Akio locked in an armbar on the other arm. The fans started to think that Muta would tap out but that didn't happen. Muta broke the hold after a few minutes by getting to the ropes. Birchill and Akio double-teamed Muta but couldn't do enough damage to put him away. Muta eventually ninja kicked Akio & Birchill and pinned Akio.

The pinfall had been broken up by Roderick Strong. Strong entered the match and they all started to triple team Muta. Just as it seemed Muta couldn't avoid being pinned or tapping out, some porn music hit and no one came out. 30 seconds later, out came Suave Eddie.

Suave Eddie is the number 7 entry. That means that we are 50 minutes into the match. Eddie shows up and throws everybody but Muta around just like when a hot tag happens in a tag team match. Eddie hit a Total Sextacy on Birchill. Sly Stone asks Christopher Idol where he's going.

Idol had walked down the ramp and broken up the pin.

Eddie chases Idol backstage. A camera conviently shows them backstage. Eddie is chasing him all over the arena. Eddie is still in the match and will eventually have to return. In the ring Ax & Smash got into the ring to help Muta after an attempt to triple team him. They had been knocked out the last time it happened with a clothesline from Birchill. A pier 6 brawl wannabe ensues. It is just filler until the number 8 entry. Eddie is shown chasing Idol into his car. Idol speeds away as Eddie tries to return ringside. None of the 3 heels backstage try to attack him because they'd be removed from the battle royal if they did. They watch him make his way back to the ring. As he is nearing the area behind the entrance ramp, generic Japanese music hit and out came Sakoda.

Sakoda is the number 8 entry. Sakoda joins the brawl and the tide turns. After about a minute of a 4-on-3, out came Suave Eddie. Eddie chased all the heels out of the ring and then took a mic.

Eddie: Hello Ladies! I need to talk about that punk Christopher Idol. He thinks he can nearly cost me the match and get away with it? Well he's dead wrong if he thinks like that. Eddie's gonna kick your ass Christopher and it won't be pretty. Because I won't let you show up at Deadly Game on October 28th until you agree to a match with me. No titles on the line. No BS. Because I want you in an unsanctioned matchm, Prissy Chrissy Idol. Tonight, I will give it my all to become the World Champion. Whoever tried to take me out better realize that I'm gonna kick your ass.

With that said, The heels jump the faces from behind and the match restarts. The faces eventually get the advantage as Muta ninja kicks Roderick and Eddie hits a Five Star Porn Splash and stays on him for a cover.

Eddie and Muta have eliminated Roderick. Just as the ref's hand hit for a 3 count, Team Japan's music hit and out came the number 9 entry.

Ryuji Ito is the number 9 entry. Ito joins the match and the tide turns in favor of Team Japan and Birchill. They do a generic 4-on-4 wrestling spot for a while. Nobody hits any big moves. Ito attempts a Stiff Kick but ends up kicking the referee. Because nobody else in the arena except Christopher Idol can come down without being fired, there is no interference spot. The men go to the hardcore spots. The referee gets back up once Steen's music hits. The number 10 entry comes out to the ring with a mic.

Kevin Steen is the number 10 entry. Steen immediately started talking instead of joining in on the match.

Steen: Who do you people think you are? I am Kevin Steen. I am the King of the Universe. I demand RESPECT. I am the one and only real God of Wrestling. You cheer Crappy Muta and Ugly Eddie instead of me? Is it just me or are New Yorkers idiots? I bet you all watch Paul Levesque's shitty wrestling program every week. Watch that idiot go out there and bury all the talent on that inferior company's roster. All of you probably voted for Bush or Kerry in the last election instead of voting for a competant candidate. The Democrats and Republicans are in it together to take over the world. All of you probably spend your time on the Internet looking at pornographs instead of doing something productive like running a forum. All of you people suck and aren't worth my time. I'm going out there and winning this match for me.

Steen finally finished the interview and went into the ring. I radioed to the referee telling him to finish the match within half an hour. Sakoda had been eliminated by Muta earlier with a Lariat and Ninja Kick combo. Ax & Smash continued to help the faces out. Steen coming into the ring made it a 4-on-4 again. Despite that, Eddie managed to hit a Total Sextacy on Ito and made a cover.

Muta had been eliminated since Birchill distracted Eddie. This match was a generic handicap match for a while because Ax & Smash had to go backstage. Eddie eventually hit both men with Total Sextacy and pinned Birchill.

Birchill had surprisingly been eliminated. He was originally supposed to win the match but that has now changed. Eddie covered Steen next.

The match was now over. Steen celebrated as Idol got a mic.

Idol: Eddie, I accept your challenge. At Deadly Game, you will get your ass kicked just like you just did. Because I'm the boss and you don't fuck with the boss.

Match of the Night: Birchall VS Eddie (97%)
Crappy Match of the Night: The Battle Royal (70%)

This was a decent first show. We drew 82 fans to the arena. They paid $1640 for their tickets. Muta, Steen, Birchill and Eddie were shoved down those 82 fans' throats. Steen and Strong increased their wage demands by 10%. Steen is on open contract so I hope he doesn't get stolen. Gotta find somebody for him to drop the belt to before I get him too over. I called the Altar Boys into my office.

Me: You 2 did terrible out there tonight. The fans deserved better than that shitty promo you did.

Luke: Its not our fault you gave us shitty material to work with.

Me: Luke, Matthew, YOU'RE FIRED. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

We are now at 8% image and we made $640 in September. We remain the smallest promotion in North America. The next smallest promotion has a public image of 58% at Small level. We are nowhere near them.

I'm going to do a World Wrestling Company (my Draft-A-Roster fed) dynasty next and I'll alternate between WWC and ICW shows. I hope to have the WWC show up soon and then the next ICW show.

My New signings


I estimated how much money we have to spend. After certain wrestlers demanded pay raises and after the Altar Boys firing, we only have $23,640 to spend. I'd like to buy a manager for Team Japan and as many jobbers as I can afford with that money. I signed a wrestler by the name of Konrad who wanted $4,000 a show. I decided that he'd be perfect for a jobber character I want to do. He agreed to play this character and I supplied the attire needed. Team Japan's manager will be a young lady who goes by the name Francoise. She wanted $8,000 so that leaves $11,640 to spend. For $5,000, a wrestler who goes by Chris The Bambikiller was available. He'll be playing the gimmick of Fritz von Hamburg, a stereotypical German from Hamburg, Germany. He agreed to cut promos in German. He told me he was familiar with the language so its alright. We were able to get another talented wrestler to sign. He's known as Flash Christian but he'll probably get a repackaging. He only wanted $4,000 leaving us with $2,000 available to spend on whoever will take it. We found a guy by the name of Shawn Stylez who didn't want any money at all. He has very little talent but we'll find some gimmick for him. We found a useless big man by the name of Big Nasty who will accept $1,000 a night. That just leaves us with $1,000 to spend. We found a mediocre high flyer by the name of Liberty Kid. That name will definitely stick with him. He took our last $1,000.

I still haven't fixed my babyface problem but I now have 5 babyface wrestlers, 4 jobbers, 8 heel wrestlers and a heel manager. The jobbers will be great once we get a TV show in about a year because they'll allow me to get part of my roster on TV without giving away any matches people might want to see.

I have decided to make a press release advertising the card for Deadly Game. We are running a prediction contest via all of the websites we advertise on. The person who gets the most matches right gets to book any match they want to see (within reason) for the November event, Danger Zone.
