Aired on 6/12/05! From the
Conseco Fieldhouse in
|
(The
UWA logo blazes across the screen before fading into darkness. Then, the opening video and theme song for
High Voltage begin to play on screen before we’re taken out to the arena in MT: Just 7 days away from Maximum Carnage, and things in the UWA just seem to be getting
hotter and hotter. Mike Tenay here
alongside Amy Dumas, and what a night we have in store for you on High
Voltage! AD: That’s right! As we get closer and closer to that huge
battle for the Commissionership at the PPV, Steve Corino’s been throwing all
sorts of obstacles into the path of the Champion of Champions! His goal, it seems, is to make sure that
Panther isn’t 100% for their match, and that plan looks to continue tonight
as Panther’s forced to do battle with none other than Enygma! MT: That’s right! A rare treat to see the former Universal
Champion here on Voltage, but we’re seeing it here tonight! Right now, let’s take you down to the ring
for our opening contest! Hot Commodity vs. (Hot
Commodity’s music continues to play as we cut to the ring, where the team is
posing on the ropes as their opponents look on in the background) Announcer:
The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 10-minute time
limit! Introducing first: at a total
combined weight of 463 pounds, here is the team of Julio Dinero and EZ Money:
HOT COMMODITY!!!!! (The
crowd boos in the background as the heel team continues to play to them.) Announcer:
And their opponents: at a total combined weight of 443 pounds, here are JOHN
WALTERS and (Little
reaction for the opposing team as they’re announced. Meanwhile, Hot Commodity hands their
entrance gear over to the ringside attendants as referee Doug Peterson calls
for the bell) Ding
Ding Ding!!! MT:
There’s the bell and we’re underway with Tag Team action. The team of Hot Commodity going up against
the upstart duo of AD: A little bit of showboating on the
part of Dinero! MT: Dinero and EZ Money making light of
their opponents here…Walters isn’t too happy about that, as these two
now…looking for the tie-up again!
Dinero and Walters…Dinero with the go-behind into the waistlock…standing switch by Walters…HE CATCHES AN ELBOW RIGHT TO
THE SIDE OF THE HEAD FROM DINERO!!! Walters… AD: He may be knocked loopy after that
one, Mike…WHOA! MT: Well clearly, not loopy enough, as
Walters manages to score with an armdrag! Another sends Dinero straight to
the mat! Dinero now…back to his feet,
but he’s met with a chop from Walters!! Another… AD: Watch EZ Money… MT: Walter—OH!!! WALTERS SAW HIM COMING!!! EZ Money tried to attack from behind! Walters able to sidestep him and send him
colliding into his own partner, as Collyer now…the tag’s been made…watch
Walters… AD: OH!!! MT: Walters able to slingshot his partner
from the apron, and Collyer scores with the double clothesline on Hot
Commodity! Both EZ Money and Julio
Dinero are in trouble as the official tries to escort EZ Money from the
ring! Collyer now with Dinero
here…winding up on the arm… AD: And ya know, Mike, I’ve gotta say that
these two—Collyer and Walters—look more and more impressive everytime they
come out here! I see big things for
them in the future! MT: And I agree, Amy, as Dinero tries to
combat this wristlock! Both Collyer
and Walters are excellent technical wrestlers…Collyer having been trained by
the famous Malenko family, which shows his credentials, as Dinero— AD: Nice move! MT: Looking for the roll-through, Collyer
had it scouted! Watch this now…Dinero
with the fireman’s carry takeover…Collyer still manages to hold onto the
wrist, and you can see the frustration beginning to grow, Amy! Things not going Dinero’s way here in the
early going as…what’s this now… AD: Hey… MT: Dinero using the hair to bring Collyer
into the ropes…Collyer still with hold of the arm as the official tries to force a break…wait a minute now! Dinero shoots Collyer into the ro—OH
C’MON!!! EZ MONEY FROM THE APRON WITH A KNEE TO THE BACK OF COLLYER!! Hot Commodity using illegal tactics to try
and gain the advanta—OH!!!! AD: What a shot from Collyer!!! MT: AND DOWN GOES EZ MONEY!!!! EZ Money
gets sent to the floor!!! Dinero now…he charges, but misses with a
clothesline…COLLYER WITH ONE OF HIS OWN SENDS HIM OVER THE TOP! Both members
of Hot Commodity are down on the arena floor!
Things not going their way, as Collyer and Walter— AD: Wait a minute… MT: Walters into the ring…watch this
now…Hot Commodity on the outside and—OH MY!!!! STEREO PESCADO BY WALTERS AND
COLLYER…AND YOU CAN HEAR THE RESPONSE OF THIS CROWD! AD: That’s right! Walters and Collyer certainly making an
impression on the fans here at High Voltage, as I think they’ve really got
Hot Commodity’s number! MT: What a feather in the cap it could be
for those two as—WAIT A MINUTE!!! AD: WHAT IN THE WORLD… MT: IT’S…IT’S…IT’S THOSE MEN FROM FNS!!!
THOSE SAME MEN THAT LAID OUT PSYKO STEVO AND LANCE SILVA!!! WHAT THE HELL— AD: AND THEY’RE ATTACKING BOTH TEAMS!!! MT: Both Collyer and Walters and Hot
Commodity are being wailed upon by these two huge men—OH!!! DINERO JUST SENT CRASHING INTO THE
POST!!!! EZ MONEY SENT CRASHING INTO
THE BARRICADE!!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS ALL ABOUT! AD: I dunno…but look at the stage… MT: Oh…that’s Desires!!! Darkest Desires
looking on from the stage as these two teams are decimated out here…they’ve
got Collyer and Walters in the ring…c’mon, now!!! C’mon… AD: DAMN!! MT: AD: I dunno what to say…look at these
guys… MT: We’ve got officials out here to try
and get thing in control…as Collyer and Walters…LOOK AT THIS…these two men
with Collyer and Walters pressed high above their head…oh!!! And look at
that… AD: He just tossed them like yesterday’s
garbage!!! MT: Collyer and Walters down on the
outside…these fans aren’t happy about tha—OH!!! REFEREE PETERSON JUST GOT NAILED WITH A BIG
MAFIA KICK!!!! AD: HE TOOK HIS HEAD OFF!!!! MT: ALL participants of this match have
been laid out, and what on earth is this all about?! What was the meaning of that?! (The
crowd boos in the background as officials try to get the two unknown men
under control. Meanwhile, Darkest
Desires climbs the ring stairs and enters the ring with the microphone. She’s got a devilish grin on her face as
she turns to the hard camera and begins to speak) Desires: I suppose you people are looking
for answers, am I right?! (giggles)
Well it’s like they say, deary: hell hath NO fury like the wrath of a woman! And my wrath…my wrath comes in form of my
mighty Athame…Bane…and Seven!!! (The
crowd boos some more in the background as Desires shows off the two men, who
are apparently her new backup) Desires: Now what you people just
witnessed was a message…a message to Lance Silva (mixed reaction)…and ANYONE
in the UWA who dares to cross my path!!
You see…dark days are on the horizon, and there’s one thing that I can
guarantee: BLOOD…WILL…SPILL!!!!! (Dark
laughs sinisterly as “The Way You Like It” by Adema hits the PA system. The arena goes black and a purple hue falls
over the ring as the trio prepares to make their exit) AD: “Blood will spill”? What does that mean? MT: I dunno, Amy! Nevertheless, Darkest Desires and these two
monster…Bane and Seven…her Athame is what I think she called them…whatever
that means! But a scene eerily similar to what we saw Friday Night on the
Slam as these two men have just laid out both teams! Desires continuing to unleash her anger
after the falling out she had with Lance Silva recently…man! What a way to kick off High Voltage, and
there’s still more to come! As we mentioned at the top of the show, the
Champion of Champions will be here in action as Panther does battle with none
other than Enygma, but when we return, more action as Michael Shane of the
Trilogy locks up with the former Light Heavyweight Champion, Nova! Don’t go
away! ***Commercial

Rewind IHG ( RS:
Ice Cube and J-Dogg going at it on the floo—OH GOD!! IT’S VADER!!! THE MASTADON IS ASSAULTING (When
the rewind ends,
we’re taken to footage from the 6/10 FNS, as
“J-Dogg” Johnny Gunn is in the ring with a mic) MT: Well fans, we just saw the scene from
this past Tuesday night on Gear, as “J-Dogg” Johnny Gunn was once again the
victim of an assault by the Man They Call Vader!!! Vader has been a thorn in J-Dogg’s side
since his return to the UWA at January’s Total Annihilation PPV, and last
night on the Slam, J-Dogg was in the house to let us know that he’s had
enough! (We
flash to footage of later footage, with Gunn still in the ring now going face
to face with Francine) Francine:
So what you’re saying is that you want another piece of Vader?! After all the beatings he’s laid on
you! After he’s taken you out with
ease time and time again, you mean to tell me that you want another piece of
Vader?! J-Dogg:
What I’m saying is that I’ve had it up to *here* with that fat piece of
sh*t! (crowd pops) What I’m saying is that I’m sick of all the
sneak attacks! I’m sick of the
backfighting!! I’m sick to f*cking death of Vader, and I wanna end this sh*t
between the two of us once and for all! Francine:
Well you need to be careful, J-Dogg, because if you’re not, the only thing
you’re gonna wind up ending is your career! (The
crowd boos in the background as J-Dogg glares intensely at Francine) J-Dogg:
Is that right? Francine:
Damn right it is! J-Dogg:
Well if risking my career is what it takes to get rid of that fat piece of
trash Vader, then that’s exactly what I’ll do! Ya know…HELL! We can even put it in writing! Francine:
What are you saying?! J-Dogg:
What I’m saying is that I want a piece of Vader’s ass, and if by some chance
that I can’t beat him 1-2-3 in the middle of this ring, then I will leave the
UWA once and for all, because I don’t deserve to be here! Whaddya say to
that?! Francine:
What do I say?! Are you kidding
me?! This has been just the
opportunity I’ve been waiting for for the past year! You’re damn right I’m gonna accept that
challenge… J-Dogg:
Wait, wait! Let’s not get so ansy, Francy, because ya see, if I can’t pin
Vader, I will leave the UWA…but if I can…then he’s gone! His career in the
UWA is OVER! VJ: Oh
my goodness! It looks as if we may
have a career match on our hands, here! (We
flash to later in the interview, as J-Dogg awaits Francine’s answer…suddenly— *SLAP* (Francine
winds back and SLAPS THE FACE of her former charge. J-Dogg’s eyes open wide with rage) VJ: Uh
oh! DD:
Francine, get away! VJ:
J-Dogg…we’ve seen him put his hands on Francine before… DD:
Yeah, the no good brute! Leave her alone! VJ:
Francine just slapped J-Dogg…Gunn now advancing on Francine—OH! She tried it again! Francine tried it again and got caught… DD:
Unhand her, you fiend! Unhand her…AHH— VJ: OH
NO IT’S VADER AGAIN!!! DD:
HAHA! What an idiot! VJ:
Vader once again attacking J-Dogg from behind!! J-Dogg is down as Vader…watch him here… DD:
Here we go…NO! VJ: He
moved…this time Vader was unable to connect with the splash, and watch Gunn
now…off the ropes with a dropkick right to the head of the Man they Call
Vader! DD: Oh
no, Vince! VJ:
Another blind side attack by Vader, but this one appears to have backfired,
as Gunn has Vader now…hammering away with right hands…big right hands…NOW
BITING HIM! DD:
What a savage, Johnson! What a no good
savage! VJ:
Gunn now measuring him for something…what could J-Dogg have in store as—FRANCINE… DD:
Look out— VJ:
OH…LOW BLOW BY FRANCINE…SON OF A— DD:
HAHA! VJ:
J-Dogg is down…and now watch Vader…Vader has
J-Dogg…POWERBOMB!!!! GUNN JUST FOLDED UP WITH THAT DEVASTATING POWERBOMB!!! DD: He
broke is back! VJ:
J-Dogg is down and out at the hands of Francine and Vader…. Francine:
Be careful what you wish for, J-Dogg…because you’ve got it! Kiss your career goodbye! (Vader’s
theme music begins to play as Francine blows a kiss to the fallen Gunn. Suddenly, we flash to a promo graphic for
the ensuing match) MT: And now, fans, it’s settled! In one week’s time at Maximum Carnage,
“J-Dogg” Johnny Gunn will do battle with the one and only Vader in a Loser
Leaves match! The loser of this match
will no longer be able to appear in the Universal Wrestling Association! Will J-Dogg finally be able to exorcise his
demon that is the 450-pound Mastadon, or will Vader finally succeed in doing
what Francine’s been working towards for the better part of a year, and
that’s rid the UWA of its first ever Universal Champion! We’ll find out on Pay-Per-View! Michael Shane vs Nova (The
Trilogy’s theme music is playing over the PA system as Michael Shane heads
down the ramp to ringside. He takes
the time to jaw with a few fans in the front row along the way) Announcer:
The following contest is set for one fall with a 10-minute time limit! Currently entering the ring, hailing from (Shane
enters the ring and throws up 3 fingers to symbolize the Trilogy! His music then dies down, and
“Intergalactic” by the Beastie Boys begins to play! The crowd cheers wildly as Nova appears
from the locker room and steps out onto the stage) Announcer:
And his opponent, hailing from (The
cheers continue as Nova slides into the ring and runs over to the far corner,
where he climbs upon the buckles and poses for the capacity crowd. His music soon dies down and referee Alan
Cooper calls for the bell) Ding
Ding Ding!!! MT: The bell has sounded and here we go
with singles action! Nova locking up
with the Trilogy’s Michael Shane! As
usual, a 10 minute time limit in this one as these two men square off…Shane
and Nova...there’s the lock up…Shane comes away with the headlock here! Michael Shane with the early advantage
as—look out, now! Nova sends him into
the ropes—AND BRINGS HIM OVER WITH A BIG HIP TOSS!!! Shane right back to his feet—AND GETS TAKEN
RIGHT BACK DOWN WITH THE ARM DRAG!!! Nova now…cinching up on the arm! Textbook version of an armbar here, as he
is solidly in control! AD: Yeah, he may be for now, but as
always, whenever he’s around you’ve gotta be on the look out for the rest of
the Trilogy! They’ve been known to
have each others backs, Tenay! MT: That’s for sure,
as Shane tries to combat this hold…Michael Shane manages to work his way back
to his feet...now driving Nova into the buckle! Referee Cooper calling for the break here… AD: Will it be a clean one…? MT: …OH!!! SHANE TRIED A KNIFE EDGE CHOP,
BUT CAUGHT A RIGHT HAND FOR HIS TROUBLES FROM NOVA!!! Nova able to duck a
second chop, and SHANE GETS DROPPED BY ANOTHER RIGHT
HAND!! Shane back to his feet and he tastes another right…and another! Irish whip in by Nova…Nova looking for
slam, but Shane goes up over the back, and now drives Nova into the
ropes…Nova hooks the ropes to block the roll up attempt… AD: But watch Shane— MT: WHOA!!! He gets sent over the top
courtesy of a back drop from Nova! AD: Unbelievable height on the back drop
too! His name is Nova, but he almost
sent Shane into orbit! MT: That’s for sure, and Shane is not
happy on the outside! In fact, Shane
is absolutely livid! AD: But he can’t lose his
concentration! He’s gotta keep his
head, especially when he’s in there with the likes of someone like Nova! MT: Shane trying to re-enter the ring
here, but watch Nova…Nova looking for the baseball slide—BUT MISSES…AND GETS
NAILED BY A BIG LARIAT FROM MICHAEL SHANE!!!!
Shane now…stomping the hell outta Nova now in front of us…now
strangling the life outta him on the arena floor… AD: He’s lost it, Mike! MT: You may be right about that! Michael Shane…this crowd doesn’t like it a
bit as Shane…Shane with a chair here…and that’s gonna prompt referee Alan
Cooper to step in! Shane has gotta
keep his temper if he expects to come away from this thing! AD: Yeah, that’s exactly right! I mean, Nova’s a former Light Heavyweight
Champion! Shane’s never had a title
here in the UWA…really hasn’t been in any major contention, so he especially
can’t afford to throw a match away with such a stupid move! He’s gotta think, Tenay! MT: I agree with you there as the official
seems to have gotten into the head of Shane! Making him see the error of his
ways, as now he follows Nova back into the ring! Michael Sha—OH! Soccer kick deep
into the gut of Nova…AND ANOTHER ONE!
Shane absolutely putting the hurt on Nova as now he brings him back to
a vertical base…NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX TAKES HIM OVER!!! THERE’S THE
BRIDGE…2…NO! Nova able to kickout!
Shane now with Nova here…hard Irish whip sends him into the
buckle…Shane catches him on the rebound with an overhead belly-to-belly!
Shane with a quick cover…he gets a count of two, but he’s unable to hold him
for the three there, as now Shane…he cinches up on this abdominal stretch
here!!! A seated version of the hold by Shane!! Nova…you can see the look of
pain on his face as Shane wrenches back here… AD: Exactly! And ya know, all the talk we’re doing about
Nova…take nothing away from Shane! MT: Well you can’t! You can’t afford to overlook anyone here in
the UWA, as this crowd now tries to get behind Nova! Nova…Nova using the knees to try and get
out of this…nailing Shane right on the side of the head—BUT LOOK AT SHANE
FIRE BACK WITH THOSE HARD SHOTS!!! HARD RIGHT HAND SHOTS TO THE GUT…and the
hold is broken! Michael Shane still in
control of this one as now he has Nova… AD: …he’s looking for a piledriver here… MT: But it’s blocked! Nova managing to shift his weight to
counter…Shane doing what he can—BUT NOVA MANAGES TO COUNTER OUT WITH A BACK
DROP!!! A back drop by Nova! Shane
gets to his feet, but a clothesline puts him back on the canvas! Shane’s up again but he gets dropped with
another!!! Nova now…measuring him again…he charges in…Shane able to sidestep
him and send him over the top, but look at Nova here!!! Nova able to hang on… AD: Shane doesn’t see him! MT: Michael Shane showboating for this
capacity crowd as Nova…to the top rope he goes…Shane… AD: Now he sees him… MT: AND NOW HE DON’T!!!!
SHANE JUST GOT HIS LIGHTS TURNED OUT WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK…COVER BY NOVA…HE
GETS 2…OH!!!! Shane able to get the shoulder up at the last second! How close do ya get! AD: Shane had better hope that’s the
closest he does get! Look at this … MT: Nova now…perhaps looking for
Novacaine—NO! Shane counters with the
elbow! Irish whip attempt now sends
Nova to the buckle…Shane charges in—AND GETS MET WITH A BOOT FROM NOVA!!! And now watch Nova here…to the middle rope
he goes…he’s got Shane hooked… AD: Here we go… MT: KRYPTONITE DUST!!!! Nova just nailed
Krytonite Dust! He makes the cover…he
gets 2…and—OH! AD: Foot on the rope! MT: Nova just a little too close to the
rope… AD: But ya gotta give credit to Shane on
that one! I thought he coulda be
knocked out there! MT: Nova thought he had him, and now it
looks as if he may be going for the kill here! Yes…Kryptonite Krunch coming up… AD: Look in the aisle— MT: Oh wait a second…that’s Shocker and
Xavier! AD: And this is just what we were talking
about before the match! It’s that
Trilogy advantage coming into play… MT: HEY WAIT A SECOND!!! SHANE ABLE TO
SLIP FREE INTO A SUNSET FLIP POSITION…shoulders down here…1…2…NO!!! Nova able
to kick out— *WHAM* AD: SWEET SHANE MUSIC!!!! MT: ON THE MONEY!!!! 1…2…THREEE—NO!!! HE
KICKED OUT AGAIN!!! HE KICKED OUT
AGAIN!!!! AND SHANE CAN’T BELIEVE IT! AD: I’m not sure *I* believe it! He connected with that one! MT: Wait a second…we’ve got Xavier on the
apron protesting the count…Shane now with Nova…scoop up and a sla—NO!!!
INSIDE CRADLE BY NOVA…THE REFEREE OUTTA POSITION… AD: THAT’S A THREE… MT: Oh c’mon…Xavier’s got the ref’s
attention…finally he sees it, but it’s too little, too late for Nova, as now
Shane pounds away on his opponent!!!
Man…Nova brought back to his feet as Xavier… AD: Get him down from the apron… MT: Xavier signaling something to
Shane…there’s the Irish whip—OH!!! Nova with the
presence of mind to slide through the legs of Xavier—AND HE YANKS HIM
DOWN!!! XAVIER JUST BOUNCED FACE FIRST
OFF THE APRON!!! In comes Shocker now…HE EATS A RIGHT HAND FROM NOVA!!! AD: Nova’s on fire here, Mike! MT: That he is as now he climbs to the
apron…Michael Shane looking to go on attack, but he gets a shoulder to the
gut for his troubles! Shane with the follow-up, and now a slingshot sunset
flip from the apron…Shane trying to hold on… AD: Oh look! MT: Shane able to drop down onto the
shoulders—AND LOOK AT THIS!!!! USING XAVIER FOR LEVERAGE FROM THE OUTSIDE…AND
SHANE GETS THE THREE!!! DAMN IT!!! Ding
Ding Ding!!! **Cue Trilogy’s music Announcer:
Here is your winner: MICHAEL SHANE!!!! MT: Michael Shane picks up the tainted win
over Nova… AD: Tainting is putting it lightly!! Nova
just got screwed over by the Trilogy!! MT: Nova coming out on the losing end, and
he can’t believe it…OH C’MON!!! Shocker from behind…putting the boots to
Nova! AD: And it’s typical Trilogy right here,
Tenay! Typical Trilogy! MT: The numbers game beginning to come to
play here in the ring!! We’ve got a 3-on-1 assault against Nova in the ring
here… AD: LOOK!!! MT: IT’S SPANKY AND AD: DROPSAULT!!!! MT: AD: Yeah!
The odds are even, and suddenly the Trilogy isn’t so tough! MT: Nonetheless, this one will go down in
the record books as a win for Michael Shane!
My goodness! (Spanky

and red spotlights fill the arena as “All the things she said” by TATU plays
over the PA system. The crowd begins
to boo as Lisa Marie Varon steps out onto the stage with her Women’s Tag
Title belt raised high in the air and her tag partner Veronica Stevens
following closely behind. They soak up
the boos from the crowd before heading down the entrance ramp to the ring) Announcer:
The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 10-minute time limit!
Introducing first, from MT: Lisa Marie Varon in singles
competition here tonight as she looks to avenge that loss from last week at
the hands of Alexis Laree and Trinity!
But ladies and gentlemen, we were informed just prior to going on the
air here tonight that that non-title victory from last week was enough to
secure a title shot for Alexis and Trinity, and that shot will take place
next week LIVE on pay-per-view! AD: And I can’t wait for that one,
Tenay! Alexis is a good friend of
mind! I have all the respect in the
world for her, and I know she’s wanted these tag titles bad! She’s been chasing them for almost a year,
and now with Trinity as her partner, her chances are as good as ever! And if anybody on the roster deserves that
title victory, it’s her, Tenay! (Now
in the ring, the former Announcer:
And her opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Trinity, hailing from (Both
Laree and Trinity tag the hands of ringside fans before sprinting down the
ramp and sliding into the ring! There, they take off into opposite
turnbuckle, each woman climbing to the second rope while posing for the
crowd. In the background, Veronica can
be seen whispering something to Varon…suddenly, the tandem known as Simply
Luscious disperses, Veronica attacking Trinity from behind while Varon does
the same to Alexis!!!) Ding

we’ve got going on here!!! This is a singles contest, but we’ve got both
members of Simply Luscious on the attack here! Veronica all over Trinity! Varon doing a
number on Alexis, her scheduled opponent! AD: And referee Jenkins has already lost
control of this one, Tenay! MT: Watch this now! Simply Luscious in
opposite turnbuckles signaling for something…there’s a double Irish
whip…WHOA! Trinity and Alexis manage to put on the breaks at the last second
to avoid the collision…Simply Luscious from behind--- AD: OH!!! MT: DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE,
AND THEY BOTH GO DOWN!!!! Varon and
Veronica…each trying to attack from behind, but Trinity and Alexis both one
step ahead, and now look what we’ve got here!
Double dropkick sends Simply Luscious into the ropes! Alexis and Trinity now…stereo Irish
whips…STEREO BACK DROPS SEND THE CHAMPIONS FOR THE RIDE!!! Varon and Veronica…they’re in a whole world
of hurt as they try to gather themselves along the ropes…in come Alexis and
Trinity— AD: Oh! MT: A double boot send
them straight to the outside!!! The
tag champs in a whole heap of trouble and if that happens next week, Amy,
they may cough up those belts! AD: You’re exactly right, Tenay! And— MT: Wait a minute! What’s Trinity doing?! AD: I dunno, but we might as well have the
tag match here! These girls don’t wanna wait for Carnage! MT: Trinity on the top rope…Simply
Luscious trying to come to on the outside and—OH MY GOD!!! (HUGE
chants of “Holy Shit, Holy Shit” break out across the arena) AD: Tell me I didn’t just see that! MT: Trinity with a moonsault from the top
rope and onto Simply Luscious! AD: These girls may not make it to PPV the
way they’re pulling out the stops tonight!
Unbelievable! Just
unbelievable! MT: Trinity sends Varon back into the
ring…Varon’s absolutely out of it—AND SHE GETS TAKEN OVER WITH A SCHOOLGIRL!
1…2..NO!!! Varon able to kickout! Both women back to their feet…Varon misses
with a wild right and gets taken over once again…1…2…kickout once again by
Varon, and watch this now! This time
trying the clothesline…Alexis able to counter and hook her for the backslide, and we’ve got a struggle on our hands here
as both women now…Varon trying to remain vertical…Laree trying to bring her
over… AD: I’d say Lisa’s definitely the stronger
of the two— MT: Oooh!
Varon able to escape from the hold and deliver a knee right to the gut
of Alexis! She’s got her set up
now…Varon with Laree… AD: OH!!! MT: THE BLACK WIDOW!!! ALEXIS HAS JUST
BEEN PLANTED!!! Cover…1…2…NO! Alexis
manages to get the right shoulder up! AD: Lucky her! She nearly got beat right there! MT: There you see Veronica Stevens looking
on from the floor as in the ring, Lisa Marie…oh, she looks pissed! Lisa now with Alexis…and she plants her in
the middle of the ring with a scoop slam!
Varon now…setting up…and she scores with a moonsault of her own! This time a standing version! Hook of the leg gets two…AND ALEXIS ABLE TO
KICK OUT ONCE AGAIN! And Varon…she is pissed! AD: I think the pressure may be starting
to get to them, Mike! You can see it
in both their faces—OW! MT: And I think we’re gonna be seeing
something on Alexis’ face after those hard right hands from Varon! Just pounding away at the AD: Listen to em! They’re hot for this one! MT: Yes indeed! These fans are solidly behind Alexis Laree
as she tries to fight her way back to a vertical base here! Alexis…she has
succeeded in doing just that, and now she fires off with the elbow! A second right to the gut of Varon and the
hold is broken! Laree into the ropes
now…coming off with the ran—OH!!! AD: POWERBOMB!!! MT: SITOUT POWERBOMB BY VARON…SHE GETS
1…2…NO!!!! LAREE ABLE TO KICK OUT AGAIN!!!
And Veronica can’t believe it! AD: Believe it, Tenay! Like I said, I know Alexis well, and she is
double tough!
One of the toughest on the roster! MT: That I agree with as we see Varon
continuing to pound away…now throwing her shoulder first into the middle
turnbuckle! Now look at Lisa stomp
away…Alexis getting a taste of the proverbial mudhole, as now Varon sets her
up on top! AD: Uh oh! MT: Varon…what could she be going for
here?! AD: I dunno, but things sure aren’t
looking good for Alexis—WAIT! MT: Oh Laree…that hard right hand just
blasted Varon in the top of the head…she follows up with another—AND A BOOT
that has her staggered!!! Varon now…head of steam into the buckle—but she’s

Alexis!!! AD: Sweet Jesus this crowd is hot!!! MT: Alexis Laree…the fire is in her eyes
as she measures Varon…and scores with another right hand!! Another…one more

There’s a baseball slide by Laree, and Veronica just got floored! AD: But watch Varon! MT: Varon back to her feet…she catches a
spinning back kick to the gut, and—OH!!! WHAT A KICK TO THE HEAD BY ALEXIS
LAREE! AD: She may have knocked her out right
there! MT: Alexis…you may be right, but she’s not
going for the cover,however! Alexis headed up top… AD: This could be a mistake here!
Wait…look at this… MT: Veronica on the apron trying to yank
down Alexis!!! Referee Jenkins right there—AND HERE COMES TRINITY! AD: It’s breaking loose again— MT: OH! Right hand catches Veronica right
on the jaw! Another! Trinity has her hooked now… AD: Oh wait a minute…she would—NOOO! MT: OH MY GOODNESS…TRINITY WITH A HIP TOSS FROM THE APRON!!!! VERONICA LANDED HARD ON THE
OUTSIDE!!!! AD: These women are going crazy here

SWINGING BACKBREAKER FROM THE FRONT SLAM POSITION!!! ALEXIS WENT DOWN HARD
ACROSS THE KNEE, AND DARN IT, WHAT ACTION WE’RE WITNESSING HERE TONIGHT ON
HIGH VOLTAGE! Ad: Yeah, but unfortunately, that
distraction from Veronica may have just cost Alexis here! MT: Varon now has her set up here… AD: She’s going for the Widow’s Peak! MT: I think you may be right! Varon…hoisting
Laree up over that shoulder and into position! AD: This could be it, Tenay! This could be… MT: Wait a minute…Alexis trying to combat

Ding Ding!!! **Cue “Daydreaming Fazes” Announcer:
Here is your winner: ALEXIS…LAREEEEEE!!!! MT: Alexis Laree with another pinfall
victory over Lisa Marie Varon and—in effect—Simply Luscious! And by golly, listen to the crowd!!!! They
are on their feet! AD: And look at Varon!!! She’s pissed!!! MT:
Alexis with the pin!!! Alexis has twice gotten a pinfall victory over
the Women’s Tag Champions, and Amy, that could be an omen! That could be a very bad omen for Simply
Luscious, and a sign for the challengers that their time is now! AD: I couldn’t agree more, and I’m gonna
make my official prediction right here: your new tag champions next week at
Maximum Carnage will be Trinity and Alexis Laree! Take that to the bank! (The
victorious Alexis heads back up the ramp with
Trinity at her side while in the ring, Varon and Stevens argue the result
with referee Stephanie Jenkins!
Suddenly, cameras cut backstage, where we see Panther warming up in
his locker room. The crowd pops HUGE
once his picture appears on the Universaltron! He looks intense and ready to go for his
next big challenge, when suddenly— ???: There you are! Panther
jumps, startled. He sharply turns towards the door, an uneasy look settling
in on his face as Darkest Desires comes into view. She smiles warmly as she
approaches him) Desires: I have been looking all over for
you, P! How ya doin? (Before
he can answer, Desires moves in on him and hugs him tightly. Clearly
unnerved, Panther cautiously strokes the back of her head as she lays it deep
into his chest, eventually settling into a full hug of his own) Panther: I’m g-good, Dark! I’m good! (The
embrace ends and Panther backs away from her.
There’s a brief, awkward silence, which is soon broken when Panther says— Panther: Hey look…I wanna thank you for
the help you gave me on FNS the other night!
I wasn’t…uh…I didn’t expec— Desires: (slapping him on the shoulder) OH
P!!!! You don’t need to thank me! I mean…you would’ve done the same for me,
right?! Panther: Um…right! Desires: Exactly…friends do that kinda
stuff for one another…and you’re one of the best friends I’ve ever had! (With
that, Desires grabs Panther again and gives him another hug. Suddenly— Tina: (entering the room) Hey Panther, I
was just wondering if (spots Desires)—WHOA! Panther: (moving Desires aside) TINA!!!
HEY! Tina: (uneasy smile) HEY! (brief silence) I’m not…interrupting
anything, am I— Panther: NAH! It’s not li— Desires: Of course not! Panther’s got a big match tonight and…I
just wanted to wish him good luck…good luck, Panther! Panther: Uh…yeah…good luck…thanks! Desires: (giggles) See ya later! (She
pats Panther on the shoulder once more before brushing by Tina and out of the
locker room door. Panther sheepishly
glares at the floor as Tina, who can barely contain her laughter, approaches
him) Tina: What was that all about? (Panther
can do nothing but smile as he looks at Tina and shrugs his shoulders. Suddenly, the graphic for the
Panther/Enygma match appears on screen) AD: Tina: my thoughts exactly! MT: Yeah, well no time to worry about
that, because up next, it’s our feature contest!! It’s Panther, the one and
only Champion of Champions doing battle with Enygma! Don’t you dare touch
that dial! ***Commercial
for the Panther/Steve Corino battle for Commissionership match scheduled for
Maximum Carnage, followed by normal commercials*** (When
the break ends, we cut to the locker room area, where Rosie Sanchez can be
seen standing outside of Commissioner Corino’s office. We can hear a bunch of
yelling coming from inside) RS: Fans, welcome back to High
Voltage! Rosie Sanchez here outside
off the Commissioner’s office, and I’ve been told
that right now Simply Luscious is inside!
They’re furious about the outcome of that last match and… (Suddenly,
the door flies open, and out walks Veronica Stevens! She’s steaming mad, clutching what appears
to be the sleeve of a dress shirt in her right hand) RS: Veronica! Veronica— Veronica: WHAT?! RS: (Startled) I-I…I just wanted to have a
word with you about your upcoming match at Maximum Carnage against Alexis
Laree and Trinit— Veronica: You want a word, eh?! You want a word?! Lemme tell ya something honey: I’ve got
plenty of words here, most of which aren’t appropriate for network TV! I will say this, though: don’t be fooled by
what you just saw out there in the ring!
A couple of fluke wins don’t change the fact that Simply Luscious is
without a doubt the number one tag team in the HISTORY of Women’s wrestling,
and come Maximum Carnage, we’re gonna stay that way! I mean, just look, Rosie! Just look at the list of the people we’ve
beaten: Desires, Diamond, Shyanne, and Alexis?! Ha…we’ve beaten her and I dunno how many
partners she’s had time after time after time after time! And this time will be no different, Rosie! RS: With all due respect, a lotta people
think that Alexis has found that missing link! They think she’s found just the partner
that’s gonna compliment her enough to pull out the victory over you! Veronica: Well Rosie—with all due
respect—if you or anybody else out there actually believes that, then you
must be the biggest f*cking moron on the face of the planet— RS: HEY! Veronica: (snatches the mic) I am
talking! You wanna talk missing links,
well Alexis, you really must be missing some links up here (points to her
head) if you think for one second that you can topple us, because look at
us! Look at me and my partner: we are
what Women’s Tag Team Wrestling is all about!
We are a team in the truest sense of the word! We are a well-oiled
unit, a by-god SISTERHOOD…and for us to lose our belts to you…a makeshift tag
team that probably don’t even like one another in the first place… RS: Vero— Veronica: SHUT UP!!! (glares into the
camera) Alexis…Trinity…don’t think we’ve forgotten about your past
issues! Don’t think we don’t know
about the bad blood that’s existed in the past, and I just wanna leave you
with one last thought, one little nugget for you to digest going into our
battle next week! Alexis…you want our
tag titles so bad, but do you really think you’re capable of sharing them
with the woman who left you laying countless times last summer?! When we’re in the heat of battle next week,
and we’ve got Trinity in the ring, giving her a beating like only we can give
her…and she crawls your way, looking for a tag…do you really think you’ll be
able to put your past behind you for the sake of your team?! Do you really think you can forgive her?
(laughs) For your sake, I hope you
can, Alexis…because whether you’re truly united or not, it’s gonna take a
damn near miracle for you to be able to take the belts from around our
waists! NOW THIS INTERVIEW IS OVER!!! (Veronica
shoves the mic back into Rosie’s chest, the force from which sends her into
the wall. She then tosses the sleeve
up into the air and storms off, the cameras focusing on it as falls to the
ground (one notices the initials “S.C.” on the cuff). The crowd boos somewhat
as we cut to ringside for the feature bout) Enygma vs. Panther (A
deep green hue falls over the arena as “Evil Deed” begins to play over the PA
system. The crowd begins to boo as
cameras switch focus to the entrance, from which a thick roll of smoke is
emitted. Through the smoke appears
Enygma, clad in a dingy black trench coat with a sinister smile on his face.) Announcer:
The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is our feature bout of
the evening. Introducing first, from (The
crowd boos once more as Enygma continues his path to ringside, sliding into
the ring once he’s reached it. He
climbs to a kneeling position, sneering into a nearby handheld camera as
flashbulbs go off at various points of the arena) MT: Here we go, fans; it is time! The feature bout of the evening and—again—a
rare treat for us here on High Voltage as Panther, the former 2-time
Universal Champion will be here in action against none other than Enygma! AD: Yeah…a bit of a bittersweet deal
though, because as we mentioned, this seems to be yet another extension of
Corino’s plan to make him wrestle the toughest opponents in the company
leading into Maximum Carnage! MT: Yes!
We’re just 7 days away from that huge battle for the Commissionership
between Panther and Corino! The future
of the UWA once again hangs in the balance on PPV, but right now, that can’t
be Panther’s concern, as he must do battle with the ever-dangerous Enygma! AD: Yeah, and don’t think Corino hasn’t
encouraged Enygma to be EXTRA vicious in this one. (Referee
Jim Jonathan confers with Enygma when suddenly, the sharp opening chord of
the Young Gunz’ “Roc U” can be heard over the PA system! The crowd pops HUGE as the live video feed
cuts out, being replaced by a radar grid, at the center of which a glowing
panther’s head appears after each sonar revolution. After the fourth revolution, the grid fades
into darkness, leaving just the head, which all at once zooms forward, and— *BOOOOOOOOM* --we’re
taken back out to the darkened arena, where a HUGE pyro blast rips through
the stage! The crowd buzzes with
anticipation as the cameras focus on the entrance, where the song’s first
cymbal clash brings about a bright red spotlight, which highlights the left
side of the arena. The second clash
cues up another red spotlight, this one highlighting the right side. The third clash cues up a bright white
spotlight from the entrance, which highlights the silhouette of the man
himself, and the crowd begins to cheer loudly as that light begins to flash
rapidly to the beat of the music before going out. The red spotlights to begin to flash, and converge on the entrance
as the opening verse begins, and the cheers grow louder as Panther steps
through the smoke and heads to the edge of the stage. A slight smile appears on his face as he
glares into the crowd, then down towards the ring Then, the white light from
the entrance re-appears, flickering once again to the song's beat as Panther
slowly raises his arms above his head, holding the pose momentarily before
swiftly bringing them down to his sides.
On cue, the white light is again extinguished, and the flashing red
lights disperse about the arena as Panther starts down the ramp WITH
PURPOSE!!!!) Announcer: His opponent,
hailing from MT: And you can
hear it ladies and gentlemen! The
electricity is flowing throughout this arena!
These fans are pumped to see the Champion of Champions here tonight on
voltage! (Now nearing the ring, Panther
tags the hands of a couple of ringside fans before leaping up onto the apron,
another smile on his face as he glances over at his opponent, who’s watching
him from a kneeling position in a far corner. Upon entering the ring, he
brushes off the referee before turning to the hard camera in a wide-legged
stance. On cue, the ring goes black
and four white spotlights sweep the arena…getting brighter…and brighter…and
brighter…before converging on the center of the ring, where Panther snaps his
right fist into the air and pyro explodes from the four ringposts! With the fans on their feet, Panther
marches forward, climbing onto the ropes and playing to the crowd, bringing
their cheers a decibel higher. He
heads to the opposite side and does the same.
Upon hopping down, the lights return to normal, the music begins to
die down and referee Jonathan calls for the bell) Ding Ding Ding!!! MT: There’s the
bell, and it is officially main event time!!
Panther and Enygma, and this capacity crowd is
ready for this one! AD: And we
heard Enygma earlier, Tenay; he’s ready to make a name for himself tonight at
Panther’s expense! MT: These two
men squaring off in the center of the ring now, and you’re exactly right,
Amy! Enygma claiming to be the new
face of the UWA as he and Panther go eye-to-eye… *SLAP* AD: OH MAN!!!
Did you see that?! MT: Enygma…he
just slapped Panther! Enygma slapped
the taste outta his mouth…Panther…you can see the look on his face… AD: And look at
Enygma…he absolutely loves it— *SLAP* MT: OH!!! BUT
PANTHER COMES RIGHT BACK!!! PANTHER WITH A HARD SLAP OF HIS OWN, AND ENYGMA’S NOT LOVING THAT! AD: Yeah…from
the looks of things, HE’S PISSED OFF! MT: Oh…Enygma
going after Panther now…driving him into the ropes…Panther able to grab a
headlock as referee Jonathan tries to separate the two! AD: Quick
thinking by Panther, too! Not letting
the situation get outta hand here… MT: Enygma now
shooting Panther off into the ropes…Panther on the rebound with a
shouldblock…ENYGMA DOESN’T BUDGE!!! ENYGMA DOES NOT LEAVE HIS FEET, AND WOULD
YOU LOOK AT THAT LOOK HE JUST GAVE PANTHER!!! Enygma…right hand misses! Panther off the other side—WITH ANOTHER
SHOULDERBLOCK…and again, Enygma stays on his feet! Enygma now— AD: Look at
this… MT: Enygma’s
aggressively stalking Panther! Panther
trying to create some space here…and he slips to the outside!! Panther looking for some much needed
breathing room as Enygma follows suit. Enygma…stalking Panther from behind-- AD: Look
out…WHOA— MT: OH
ENYGMA!!!! HE HIT THE POST!!!! ENYGMA CHARGED FROM BEHIND, AND PANTHER SENT
HIM STRAIGHT INTO THE POST!!! Panther drew Enygma right in, and Enygma is
down… AD: He may be
out, Mike! MT:
Indeed! Enygma…trying
to get his wits about him here on the arena floor, as Panther heads back into
the ring… AD: No wait a
minute! He’s going up! MT:
Oh…Panther…Panther’s going up top!
Enygma still trying to regain his bearings on the floor as
Panther…Panther from the top— AD: OH MY
GOD!!! MT: CORKSCREW
PLANCHAAAA!!! PICTURE PERFECT!!! TRADEMARK PANTHER,
AND THESE FANS ARE ON THEIR FEET! AD: Darn right
they are! What better place to be than
High Voltage, because they are electric here tonight! MT: Yes indeed,
as Panther follows Enygma back into the ring!
Enygma…he is out of it after that venture to the outside!! He let his aggressiveness get the better of
him as Panther…Panther off the ropes—AND HE SCORES WITH ANOTHER
SHOULDERBLOCK…AND THIS TIME ENYGMA GOES DOWN!!! Enygma…scrambling back to his
feet…Panther off the ropes again—AND HE SCORES WITH ANOTHER!!! DOWN GOES
ENYGMA AGAIN!!! Panther now…measuring Enygma again…another shoulderblock
coming up perhaps…NO! Enygma able to
side step and send Panther over the top!
Panther able to land on the apron…great agility by the Champ of Champs
as Panther now…measuring Enygma… AD: I dunno if
Enygma knows tha—OH! MT: OH
MY…Panther went for the springboard…Enygma saw him from the corner of his eye
and was able to shove him from the top rope and to the outside!! AD: And that’s
dangerous, Tenay! Very dangerous! Panther could be seriously hurt here! MT: And seven
days away from that huge bout at Maximum Carnage, you can bet that that’s
exactly what Steve Corino had in mind when he signed this match! AD: No doubt,
Mike! Watch Enygma here… MT: Enygma to
the apron now as Panther…trying to gather himself on
the floor—OH! AD: AND THIS
TIME ENYGMA GOT CAUGHT! MT: Enygma

his face says it all! Enygma’s body
contorted on the concrete…as Panther…Panther bringing him back to his feet!
Panther…with Enygma…Irish whip— *CLANG* MT: OH!!! RIGHT
INTO THE STAIRS GOES ENYGMA!!!! BACKFIRST BY THE CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS… AD: And
Panther’s not done, Mike! Look at
this… MT: Panther with Enygma again…Enygma looks to
be in a lot of pain here on the outside as Panther…Panther with another
WHI—GEEZ! AD: OH MY
GOD!!! DID YOU SEE THAT?! MT: THROUGH THE
GUARDRAIL!!!!! ENGYMA SENT IN WITH SUCH FORCE THAT THE GUARDRAIL JUST
SNAPPED!! AD: Panther’s
got him bouncing around this arena like a pinball… MT: And Enygma…absolutely in a world of hurt as
Panther brings him back to his feet…OH! Rake at the face by Enygma sends
Panther reeling…he follows up with a clothesline from behind! Panther is down over here by us… AD: The ref’s
just letting this one fly… MT: Showing a
lot of leeway indeed as Enygma brings Panther to his feet here…scoop up by
Enygma and a sla— *THUD* AD: WHOA! MT:
Enygma…Enygma slamming Panther on our table…and now look at him go to work… AD: Ok, Mike,

THE POST!!!!! PANTHER USING HIS
MOMENTUM TO SEND ENYGMA STRAIGHT INTO THE POST!!! ENYGMA IS DOWN! AD: And he may

Absolutely! Beautiful use of leverage
by Panther to escape the sleeper hold as now he tries to muscle up the big

idea! We saw her help Panther out
Friday Night on the Slam as Panther…Panther just spotted Desir—OH! AD: Enygma… MT: Enygma with
the counter sends Panther over and onto his back! Enygma—OH! Quickly following up with a knee of his own! AD: And he

THAT?! MT: ENYGMA JUST
SENT PANTHER SLIDING RIGHT INTO THE POST!!! PANTHER…RIB FIRST INTO THE POST! AD: He may have
broken his ribs, Tenay! MT: Panther in
some trouble here…fans…we’ve gotta take a quick commercial break! This match will continue when we return! *Commercial* (When the break ends, Enygma
has Panther trapped in a corner) MT: Welcome

buckle! Panther now, to the middle
rope…DIVING RIGHT INTO THE CLUTCHES OF ENYGMA!!!! Enygma drives Panther
backfirst into the buckle! AD: And this is
just how it’s been since the break!
Enygma’s been in complete control here! MT: And that
control continues as he pummels Panther’s midsection with those shoulder
barges! Panther has not been the same
since hitting that steel ringpost Amy! AD: Well…to be
honest, he hasn’t been the same since he laid his eyes on Darkest
Desires! And I wanna know what the
hell she’s still doing out here! MT:
Well…Desires has not left! She is
still looking on from the stage, and I dunno what to make of that after that
cryptic warning she left for us earlier tonight— AD: WATCH
ENYGMA— MT: OH!!!!!
RUNNING KNEE RIGHT TO THE FACE…PANTHER WAS LEFT SLUMPED IN THE CORNER AFTER
THOSE SHOULDERS TO THE GUT… AD: And he may
be out… MT:
COVER…ENYGMA GETS TWO…AND PANTHER ABLE TO RAISE THAT SHOULDER!!! Panther not
outta this one yet, as Darkest Desires…inching closer and closer to ringside… AD: I don’t
like this, Tenay! I’ve got an eerie
feeling… MT: Oh! Enygma with a headbutt right to the trapz
of Panther! Can’t say I’ve seen that one before, as now he locks up on an
inverted bearhug! Enygma…putting the
squeeze on those damaged ribs as Panther…Panther trying to fight out of it
with the elbows…Enygma responds with those wailing forearms to head and back
of Panther! Those heavy blows…Enygma
brings Panther back to his feet here…Irish whip sends him into the
ropes…Panther coming off— AD: OH! Right
into the knee! MT: Hard knee to the gut by Enygma! Panther is down…and look at that! Enygma measures him with that falling
headbutt to the ribs! Targeted offense
from Enygma as he makes the cover…hook of the leg and…only two! AD: Yeah, Mike! Enygma…as creepy as he may be at times,
he’s not a dumb man by any means! He
knows what he’s doing in that ring! MT: Absolutely, Amy, as once again he’s got
this reverse bearhug applied to Panther on the canvas! Panther…getting the life squeezed out of
him here! You can see the look of
anguish on his face as Enygma applies pressure to those ribs! AD: And this
absolutely saps your strength, Mike! It’s so hard to breathe, and when it’s
applied by someone as strong as Enygma, this hold can be devastating! MT: This crowd trying to get behind the
Champion of Champions, who’s desperately trying to find a way outta this one,
Amy! Panther trying to fight back to
his feet…Enygma refusing to release that grip… AD: He’s
relentless! Absolutely relentless! MT: Panther
finally able to get his legs under him as Enygma…still with the hold
applied…watch Panther now…toward the ropes—OH! Once again with the leverage move…this time
sending Enygma to the outside, but Enygma able to land on his feet! AD: Yeah, we
saw Panther use something similar with the sleeper earlier on— MT: GOOD GOD!!!
Enygma…Enygma slamming Panther headfirst into lip of that apron…repeatedly! AD: Yeah, and
I’m not Delaware Dave, but let’s remember that that’s STEEL under there! MT: Panther is
in some serious trouble here as Enygma has him draped across that apron…AND
HE CONNECTS WITH THE LEG DROP RIGHT ACROSS THE HEAD AND NECK OF PANTHER!
Enygma… AD: Look at the
look on this guy’s face! He is creepy! MT: He’s
certifiable…and he’s got Panther right where he wants him, Amy! Enygma…Enygma now headed to the
top…Enygma…who knows what he’s got in store for Panth—OH!!!!! AD: Well I
think we all know what he WON’T have in store for the rest of the night! MT: Panther crotching Enygma…Enygma with a
tender landing across that top rope! AD: And that
was a big miscalculation for Enygma! He was doing well enough with the power
game… MT: And now
let’s see if Panther can capitalize!
Panther headed up top with Enygma…could we see a Pantherplex coming
up…OH! Enygma with a right hand…hard right hands… AD: To the
ribs! Right to the injured ribs—LOOK
AT THAT!!!!! MT: Oh! Panther just tossed gut first across that
top rope by Enygma!! Panther…teetering on the brink of destruction—AND ENYGMA!!!! FROM THE TOP WITH A BIG ELBOW RIGHT TO THE
HEAD OF THE CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS!!!!
Man! AD: Almost a
guillotine there… MT: Panther
most definitely feeling the effects as Enygma…right over here by us… AD: And he
feels he’s got it well in hand! MT: And at the
moment I think I agree with him!
Panther in the ring…with all kinds of trouble from those ribs as
Enygma… AD: I think
he’s getting ready for the kill! MT: I think
you’re right, Amy, as Panther…ever courageous, trying to fight the pain and
get back to his feet while Enygma…like a vulture stalking his wounded prey… AD: This could
be it, Tenay! MT: Enygma from
behind now…he charges in—OH!!!! THE CLOTHESLINE IS CAUGHT!!! PANTHER WITH THE
HALF NELSON—BUT ENYGMA ELBOWS OUT OF IT! Enygma…boot to the gut of
Panther…setting up now for the piledriver—BUT PANTHER…PANTHER TRYING TO FIGHT
IT— AD: OH! MT: KICK TO THE
HEAD…THAT HEEL OF PANTHER CATCHING ENYGMA RIGHT IN THE MOUTH!!! Enygma…Enygma
rebounds with a right hand…Panther responds…Enygma once again…Panther returns
the favor… AD: And look at
this, Tenay! It’s all breaking down
now! MT: This thing
has boiled down to a slugfest, with Enygma gaining the advantage! Enygma with the upper hand—OH! He misses
with the haymaker…into the ropes goes Panther! Enygma now...measuring him… AD: LOOK OU—OH!!!!! MT:
PANTHER…THAT WAS A KNEE STRIKE FROM CRUCIFIX POSITION!!! Panther now has him
hooked once again—AND DRIVES HIM DOWN ACROSS THE KNEE WITH THE HALF
NELSON!!! Panther…that’s two big
moves— AD: AND HERE’S
ANOTHER— *WHAM* MT:
FRONTLINE!!!!! PANTHER JUST HIT THE FRONTLINE, AND BOY DID HE EVER CONNECT TO
THE FACE OF ENYGMA!!! HE’S GOT THE COVER…PANTHER’S GOT TWO— AD: OH!!!! MT: HE GOT THE
SHOULDER UP!!! ENYGMA GOT THE SHOULDER UP, BUT LISTEN TO THIS CROWD AS
PANTHER… AD: Look at
this… MT: PANTHER WITH
THE HEAD OF ENYGMA…REPEATEDLY SLAMMING IT AGAINST THE CANVAS!!! PANTHER… AD: Ya know
what I think, Tenay? I think he’s
getting FIRED UP in there!!! MT: And I think
you’re right, Amy!! It is absolutely electric in here as Panther…with
Enygma…OH! Big elbow from the mysterious one to counter that waistlock! Panther undoubtedly going for those Germans
as Enygma charges in— AD: Oh no!!! MT: Enygma…Panther able to sidestep him, and
Enygma’s head just became tangled in the ropes!! Panther immediately trying to
