PWA
OVERDRIVE
Jacksonville,
Florida
The PWA logo flashes onto the screen and cuts right into
the opening for Overdrive. The Foo Fighters’ “All My Life” plays as we are
taken inside the Jacksonville Coliseum, where a dazzling fireworks display
lights up the building.
Cade: Hello everybody and welcome to Overdrive! I’m Nick
Cade, along with my broadcast partner, Rick Madsen. Rick, what a week this has
been.
Madsen: No words can describe it Nick. After 70 minutes of
action, The Impulse Mike Griffin emerged as the winner of the Symphony of
Destruction, and will face the PWA Champion at Everlasting Epic II!
Cade: That has been the big story lately, coupled with
Jason Calysto’s apparent jealously of his partner’s success in that match.
Madsen: After that scuffle on Frequency, that partnership
might be done for.
Cade: We’ll see, but Lee Palmer is climbing in the ring. I
don’t see a match scheduled right now, do you?
Madsen: Nope. Something must’ve happened.
Palmer: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome back
Jacksonville’s own…Jaguar!
“I Got That Fire” by Juvenile and Manny Fresh explodes
through the speakers and Jaguar emerges to an absolutely thunderous pop from
the hometown crowd! Wearing jeans and a Jacksonville Suns jersey with his name
and the number 2 on the back, the former PWA Champion poses in front of his
flaming pyro and slaps hands with several fans on his way to the ring.
Troy: Jaguar is back!
Ferrara: He missed Frequency after dropping the PWA title
to GI Jew, but something told me he wouldn’t miss this night.
The music shuts off after Jaguar poses on the turnbuckles
and he grabs the mic, but is unable to speak due to the deafening reaction from
the crowd.
Cade: This crowd is giving Jaguar an amazing reception.
Madsen: Eh, he’s a hometown guy.
Jaguar: Thank you. It feels good to come home again! (Crowd
cheers once more) It does feel good to be back here, but I’ve got some business
to address. Guys in the truck, roll that footage.
We are taken to the closing moments of the PWA Championship
match, held inside a steel cage.
Jew somehow ducks it, and in desperation thrusts a swift
blind mafia kick suddenly behind him. Jaguar sidesteps it, and Jew
accidentally connects with the referee! The referee goes flying, and
lands awkwardly on the back of his head. The fans cringe with the impact,
but then explode with delight as Jaguar capitalizes on his opponent’s botch by
scooping him up for the Carrjack! The confused Jew has nowhere to go, and
the champion plants his challenger with his finishing move square in the middle
of the ring!
Troy: Yes!
Yes! It’s over! It’s over!
Ferrara: No it isn’t, Troy! The referee, Jose Soares, is out! He’s completely out!
Jaguar covers Jew, and hooks the leg tightly, but Soares seems to be nowhere
near consciousness. The fans start up an invalid count of their own, a
count that runs all the way up to eleven before the referee finally stirs, and
clears his dizzied vision to make the official count. One…two…thr—no!
Jew kicks out! Jew kicks out and hearts are broken. Jaguar rolls
off of his challenger, aching with disappointment. The adrenaline rush
has run out and the hellish, excruciating limitations of his back visibly return.
Both men slowly rise to their feet, finally approaching the summit of their
conflict.
Ferrara:
This has gotta be it, Troy! Whatever happens here …
Troy: I can barely watch!
Jaguar thrusts a sudden desperate foot towards GI Jew’s gut, but Jew catches
it, spins him around, and scoops him up for the Magnum Driver! In a
surreal moment of disbelief the fans do not panic, confident that Jaguar will
escape defeat yet again. However, Jew does manage to plant the PWA World
Heavyweight Champion square in the middle of the ring with the maneuver, and he
does manage to cover him shortly thereafter. And as the referee counts
one…two…yes, three, GI Jew does manage to capture his first PWA
championship!
Troy: No!
No! Dammit, no! GI Jew has just stolen the damn title!
Ferrara: He didn’t steal anything,
Troy! GI Jew damn sure earned this
victory! And we damn sure have a NEW
PWA Champion!
With the live crowd booing the footage, Jaguar begins to
speak again.
Jaguar:
I know you guys don’t like it anymore than I do, but I’m not gonna cry over
spilt milk. Paul Ferrara was right. GI Jew did earn the title. The referee was
down when I had him beat, but that’s not the point. He pinned me 1,2,3 and
re-aggravated my back injury in the process.
The crowd begins to boo, but those pick up in volume as
“Refuse/Resist” by Sepultura begins and GI Jew walks through the curtain,
followed closely by Justice and Walter Gindin.
Jew:
Well, well, well. I know you only missed a few days, but welcome back. You
know something bro? Now that you replayed that footage, its reminded me
that…this shit feels good! HA HA HA! (Crowd boos) You see people, this
doesn't feel good because I'm the champ ... It feels good because I KICKED
Jaguar's ASS! NO, let's change that a little. I didn't just kick his ass.
I done F*CKED his ass up! You see people, Jaguar was a fluke. You might have
HAD my belt, but like I said, it's now MY belt. Where were you Jag, laying
in a hospital bed, next to Santa Norm and his little bitch ass elves? Yeah, you
remember, I kicked their asses too. I told you Jaguar; I own this
place! I own you! I own this belt! I own these fans and I OWN...
THAT... RING!
Jaguar: You done yet junior? Granted, you kicked my ass at
Symphony of Destruction, and you took my belt, but you do not own these people,
this ring, and especially, you do not own the Ville! And while we’re on the
topic of the belt, since you’re so bad, how about us seeing a title match right
here tonight?! (Crowd cheers forcefully)
Cade: How about it champ?!
Madsen: No way!
Jew: See what I mean? This guy just doesn’t stop running
his mouth. Now you want a title shot. Well seeing as I just defended the belt,
the answer is no. But I will be more than happy to come down there and beat
your ass again.
Jaguar: You wanna fight me, right here, right now? Bring it
bitch.
GI Jew looks shocked at Jaguar’s proposal, and hands the
mic and title to Gindin before talking to Justice. Jew turns around and walks
down the ramp, with Justice and Gindin following him!
Cade: What is this? He didn’t challenge Justice too!
Madsen: You want one; you get them all.
Jew, Gindin and Justice get halfway down the ramp when
“Understanding In A Car Crash” by Thursday hits the PA system, and PWA Owner
Bryan Conroy emerges to a very nice reaction.
Conroy: Wait just one minute champ. If you are gonna fight
tonight, it will be on my terms. You will not fight Jaguar…right now. But you
two will wrestle tonight in a tag match. Justice, since you seem so antsy to
get involved, you will team up with GI Jew against Jaguar and any partner of
his choosing for our main event. And since there was so much talk about titles,
ever since the Symphony of Destruction, I have been looking for a team to face
S.I.N. for the PWA Tag Team Championship. In making this match, I have realized
that I don’t need to look any further. The winner of this match will go on to
face Vulture and Greg Tantalus for the Tag Team titles this week on Frequency.
That is all.
Cade: What a blockbuster main event! GI Jew and Justice vs.
Jaguar and a mystery partner? I wonder who he will pick!
Madsen: (Sarcastically) Gee, me too Nick. Another chance to
win the tag titles for an 8-time champion, I wonder who he will get too. Does
the term “Playboy” ring a bell?
Cade: Hey, it sure does, but we’ll find out sooner or
later.
“Understanding In A Car Crash” replays as Conroy exits and we head to a commercial break.

Segment 2,
Match 1 – The Miracle Mike Troha vs. Kerry Cox
Referee: Billy
Vargas
“Arcarsenal” by At The Drive-In begins over the PA system
as two gold streams of fireworks fall from the ceiling to the ramp. Amidst a
chorus of jeers, Mike Troha and Daredevyl make their entrance to the ring.
Troha climbs in and his associate stalks at ringside, as “War Machine” by Kiss
plays next. Followed by Superstar Scott Hosemann, Kerry Cox walks out to a big
pop from the crowd. Troha clears the ring as Cox and Hosemann climb in to pose
for their fans.
Madsen: Did you see what Kerry Cox said on Frequency? He
wants to fight Solomon!
Cade: Kerry just wants to know if he still has “it”.
Madsen: Oh, he’ll get “it” messing with that guy.
Cade: Well a win over Troha tonight might help him gauge
that a little better.
The bell rings and they lock up in the center of the ring.
Troha takes advantage with a side headlock, and then executes a headlock
takedown. Cox pounds the mat, but makes it to his feet with Troha still holding
the move. Cox shoves Troha to the ropes, breaking his grip, but Troha comes
back with a cross body block for a count of one…two…and a kickout! Both men get
up and Cox is a bit slow in doing so. Troha uses his speed to nail a kick to
the gut and a DDT.
Cade: Troha is a step ahead of Cox right now.
Madsen: Well Troha is a world-class athlete, and Cox
is…wait, he’s just old.
Cade: Will you stop?
Troha smirks towards the camera and then grabs Cox by the
head for the Mental Miracle! Cox flails his arms as Troha begins to squeeze,
but The Hardcore Icon grabs him by the legs and barrels him back into a corner!
Troha stumbles out and Cox Irish whips him to the other corner. Troha bounces
out of that one and right into a back body drop from Cox!
Cade: Cox is back in this match!
Madsen: Won’t be for long though.
Cox wastes no time in setting up for the Coxsucker DDT, but
Daredevyl climbs up on the ring apron! Hosemann scurries over and yanks him
down, commencing a brawl between those two! Vargas heads out to break things
up, but Troha nails a low blow and a suburban slam!
Madsen: That’s it! This one is over!
Cade: Wait a second, that’s Jon Brett!
The camera switches angels to show Brokensoul Jon Brett
rush in through the crowd and into the ring. Troha gets up and swings a right
hand, but its blocked and Brett connects with a chokeslam! Cox covers Troha as
Brett escapes and Vargas slides back in to count 1---2---3!
Madsen: What kind of crap was that?!
Cade: The old man just pinned Mike Troha, that’s what!
Madsen: Pinned him my ass! Brett has to face Mike Grieco
tonight; I’m sure he’ll have hell to pay!
Winner via
pinfall at 5:28 – Kerry Cox
Segment 3 –
Backstage
We are taken to the interview area, where Tracie Reed has
caught up with Jon Brett.
Reed: Jon Brett, what was all that about out there?
Brett: Its simple Tracie. You wanna attack me Troha?! This
just became personal!
Brett then storms off the set, leaving a bewildered Tracie behind.
-COMMERCIAL
BREAK-
A camera cuts to the dressing room of Superstar Scott
Hosemann and Kerry Cox, who was victorious over Mike Troha just moments ago.
Cox: Did you see that Scott?
Hosemann: See what?
Cox: The win.
Hosemann: Oh yeah, I saw it. It was a big win man. I’ve
definitely had my troubles against Troha.
Cox: So do you like my chances against Solomon now?
Hosemann: Solomon? No way Kerry. You got a nice win tonight,
but Jon Brett and me helped you get there. Lets face it dude, your time is
winding down. You’re the best friend I have around here, but this Solomon thing
just isn’t a good idea. Look, I’m gonna go get some coffee, you want a cup?
Cox: No thanks.
Hosemann: Alright. Hey Kerry.
Cox: Yeah?
Hosemann: Think about that man.
Referee: Matt
Hansen
50 Cent’s “P.I.M.P.” begins over the PA system, sparking a
series of jeers for Dee Licious and Mike Grieco as they arrive in tandem.
Grieco bounces around the squared circle as “Forsure” by the Lost Prophets
hits. Brokensoul Jon Brett emerges to a rousing ovation, just moments after
costing Mike Troha his match against Kerry Cox.
Madsen: Where does this guy get off pulling what he did
earlier?
Cade: I can’t blame him one bit after Troha hit him with
the chair from behind on Frequency.
Madsen: Well Troha can blame him.
Brett slides into the ring and Grieco pounces right on him,
keeping Brett grounded with stomps to the back. Brett struggles to escape, but
Grieco clamps on a chokehold. Hansen sees this and forces a break at the count
of 4. Grieco pulls Brett up by the arm and Irish whips him across. Brett
bounces off and walks right into a big powerslam from Grieco for one…two…and a
kickout!
Madsen: Grieco is taking it to him right now. He doesn’t
know what he’s in there with in Mike Grieco.
Cade: Grieco is definitely a powerhouse, but Brett isn’t
out of it yet. He’s got a shot at the International Championship this Tuesday
too.
Madsen: If he makes it there.
Grieco pulls Brett up again for a powerslam, but Brett
falls behind him and shoves him into a corner. Grieco hits the turnbuckles hard
and stumbles backwards into a rear chokehold drop! Brett covers for one…two…and
Grieco kicks out! Brett gets back to his feet and stalks Grieco for a chokeslam
as the fans anticipate the move hungrily. Grieco gets up and turns around,
leading to Brett nailing the slam! Brett covers for one…two…and Hansen is pulled
from the ring by Daredevyl!
Cade: Daredevyl yanked Hansen from the ring! Whats he doing
here?!?!
Madsen: I don’t know, but I know why Troha is in the ring!
Brett gets off of Grieco, but The Miracle spins him around
and swings a right hand, but Brett blocks it and floors Troha with one of his
own! Brett lifts The Miracle up and clotheslines him over the top rope, causing
the fans to go crazy! Brett raises his arms in celebration, but turns around to
find a boot to the gut and a double powerbomb from Grieco! Grieco folds Brett
in a cover and Hansen counts 1,2,3!
Madsen: There we go! Grieco wins again!
Cade: It took three men to beat Jon Brett though!
Madsen: It only took two powerbombs to beat him. He’s gonna
get what he’s had coming to him now!
Right after the three count, Troha and Daredevyl storm the
ring to attack the fallen Brett. Grieco and Dee even join in, brutalizing Brett
until 3 D-Bombs crash atop the ramp and Romeo charges out to 50 Cent and Lil
Kim’s “Magic Stick”, combined with a huge pop from the crowd! Romeo slides in
the ring and tackles Grieco right to the ground! Daredevyl pulls him off, but
“Da Playboy” kicks him in the gut and tosses him over the tope rope! Troha
charges, but only gets more of the same! Dee gets in the face of Romeo, but the
“Da Playboy” greets her with a right hand to the head! Grieco gets back to his
feet, but Romeo kicks him in the gut, fixes his black bandana, and destroys him
with Dre Day! “Magic Stick” replays as Romeo helps up Brett and heads to the
back.
Cade: What a dominant performance from Romeo!
Madsen: It wasn’t fair; Grieco just had a match!
Cade: Tell your story walking buddy.
Winner via
pinfall at 6:02 - Mike Grieco
Segment 6 –
Backstage
With Grieco still lying in the ring, we are taken
backstage, where Romeo is walking through the hallway with a smile on his face.
Romeo turns a corner and taps Jaguar, now with his ring gear on, on the back at
the water cooler.
Jaguar: Yooooo, whats the deal cuz? I see you got your gear
on; you had a match?
Romeo: Nah, just went out there to get me some of Grieco.
Jaguar: Oh alright. Where you off to now big pimpin’?
Romeo: I got a smiff to go see at Regency Square.
Jaguar: Nothin’ like a 904 broad huh?
Romeo: Hellnaw man. I love these Dirty South girls. But
anyway, I gotta get down there. I see you got a big match tonight. You know
what to do man.
Jaguar: Hell yeah, I’ll see you after the show cuz.
The Hot Boy$ give one another a pound before heading in
different directions. The camera follows Jaguar as he turns a corner and opens
up a dressing room door.
Jaguar: You ready cuz? Alright man, hurry up. We’re next.
You know I can’t be late in my hometown. Well, maybe I can. I’ll see you out
there.
Jaguar closes the door and heads toward the ring , pouring
some water on his head and spitting some out as we go to commercial.
Cade: If it’s not Romeo…
Madsen: Who the hell is his partner then?
-COMMERCIAL
BREAK-
We come back from commercial to find a camera positioned in
a hallway, where Justice, Walter Gindin and GI Jew turn a corner and walk by,
looking focused on their way to the ring.
Cade: Fans, we are just 3 weeks away from our next
pay-per-view extravaganza, Meltdown, on July 5th from Philadelphia,
PA!
Madsen: We certainly are. This Tuesday on Frequency, Mike
Tortorici will face “The Iceman” Jason Calysto in a match where the winner is
granted a PWA title shot at Meltdown!
Cade: Tickets for this event go on sale this Thursday at 12
noon, and to meet and greet the fans will be none other than Frequency
announcer Victor Troy, Jon Brett, and Philadelphia’s own Kayne!
Madsen: She is definitely the shining star of Philly Nick,
but that’s not all that’s going down in the city of Brotherly Love. On July 4th
weekend, Mike Tortorici will appear at St. Joseph’s University, the Hot Boy$
will have an autograph session at Temple University, and there will be a
special Independence Day celebration at Independence Hall, which yours truly,
Jenny Ottati, Loki, Mike Griffin, Infernus, The Machine, Kayne and PWA Champion
GI Jew will attend.
Cade: It will be an amazing weekend in Philly, but let’s
get up to the ring for our main event!
Segment 9, Match 3 – GI Jew and Justice vs. Jaguar and a
Mystery Partner
Referee: Tom
Stevens
Lee Palmer heads back into the ring as Sepultura’s
“Refuse/Resist” hits the PA system again.
Palmer: This tag team contest is scheduled for one fall!
First, being accompanied to the ring by Walter Gindin at a total combined
weight of 510 pounds, the team of Justice and the PWA Heavyweight Champion of
the World, G…I…Jewwww!
The fans’ boos reach an ultra-high level as Jew and Justice
stroll down the ramp and into the ring. Jew takes the World title belt from
around his waist as the house lights go down and “I Got That Fire” starts.
Palmer: And introducing their opponents, first, from
Jacksonville, Florida, weighing 242 pounds, this…is… Jaguar!
Jaguar arrives to an even bigger reaction than before, and
poses in front of his fireworks just before his music shuts off. A hush falls
over the crowd as Jaguar looks to the curtain.
Cade: Romeo has already left the building. I have no idea
who Jaguar’s partner could be tonight.
Madsen: Romeo and Jaguar have won 7 tag team titles in
their careers together. Whoever his partner is, I feel Jaguar might be making a
mistake tonight in not having that formidable team like he should.
The silence is broken once “Wth>You” by Linkin Park
begins and the fans come alive!
Palmer: And his partner, hailing from Simi Valley,
California, weighing 245 pounds, he is the modern-day samurai; he is…Scythe!
Scythe and Jaguar pound fists and charge into the ring,
starting a brawl with their opponents! Jaguar peppers GI Jew with hard rights
and lefts, while Scythe unleashes a karate-kick assault on Justice that sends
the big man over the top and to the floor! Jaguar forces Jew into a corner and
mounts the second rope. Scythe exits the ring as Jaguar pounds away on the head
of GI Jew, with his hometown fans counting 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10! The champion
falls limp to the mat as the bell finally sounds.
Cade: Jaguar is beating the hell out of the champion right
now!
Jaguar makes a cover, but only gets a one count. He lifts
GI Jew back up in a Piledriver position, but Jew swings a right hand right to
Jaguar’s kidney, stinging his oft-injured lower back. Jaguar falls to one knee,
and GI Jew hits the ropes to nail him with a high knee lift! Jew makes a pin
for 1---2---and Jaguar kicks out, but the fans groan as Jew makes a tag to
Justice.
Madsen: And here comes the big man.
Cade: This could be a long night for Jaguar with Justice in
there.
Justice enters the ring and barrels Jaguar back into a
neutral corner. He follows up with two thrusts from his shoulder and a long
vertical suplex that sends Jaguar back down to the hard canvas. Justice covers
for one…two…and Jaguar kicks out again! Justice drops an elbow on the former
champion and grips him in a slow rear chinlock.
Madsen: This is what Justice needs to do, wear Jaguar down
with his size.
Cade: Not a bad strategy at all.
Justice keeps a tight grip, but the fans begin to yell and
stomp, bringing Jaguar back to his feet. Jaguar hits an elbow to the gut, then
another, and a third, which breaks his grip! Jaguar hits the ropes and Justice
lifts a big boot, but the Hot Boy ducks under, bounces off the ropes, and comes
back with a jumping side kick! The fans come to their feet as both men crawl
towards their corners. Justice tags to GI Jew, and Jaguar brings Scythe in
right after!
Cade: Scythe is in there now!
Madsen: This can’t be good.
Scythe knocks GI Jew down, then does the same to Justice.
Jew gets up, but receives a superkick for his troubles! Justice grabs Scythe
from behind, but Jaguar spins him around, kicks him in the gut and nails
Version 1.0! Gindin has gone nuts at this point and grabs a chair from
ringside. He climbs to the ring apron, but Jaguar grabs him by the collar and
drags him into the ring! Gindin drops the chair as Jaguar kicks him in the gut
and folds him up with a Carrjack, to the delight of the crowd!
Madsen: He’s beating up agents now!
Stevens calls for Jaguar to exit the ring as Scythe scales
the top rope. Scythe sets up for the Diving Blade, but Justice shoves him off
and to the floor!
Cade: What a nasty fall for Scythe!
Madsen: He’s making that a habit, isn’t he?
Justice and GI Jew begin to recover, and Jaguar gets back
in the ring to battle them, but Greg Tantalus rushes through the crowd and
attacks Scythe! Jaguar dropkicks Justice to the outside and takes out GI Jew
with a Carrjack in the center of the ring! As Stevens tells Jaguar he isn’t the
legal man, Tantalus lifts Scythe up and hits the Big O on the floor! Tantalus
escapes through the crowd as Justice rolls Scythe back into the ring. GI Jew
drapes an arm over Scythe for a one…two…three!
Cade: Dammit! We need more than one referee out here!
Madsen: We had the best in the company for this match, and
Justice has been served! Pun intended.
Cade: Tantalus has robbed Scythe of a victory again!
Justice lifts GI Jew up to raise his arm in victory, but
he’s cracked with Gindin’s chair, courtesy of Jaguar! Jew turns around, only to
find a boot and the Pedigree! “I Got That Fire” replays and Jaguar lifts Scythe
up as Gindin pulls his group from the ring.
