(Chapter 4)


3rd night of matches:
-----------------------------------------

1.  Cheeseburger  vs  Al Snow
2.  Mike Quackenbush  vs  Konnan
3.  Johnny Gargano  vs  Adam Page
4.  Adam Cole  vs  Rob Van Dam

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


(The scene is...as always from within the candle lit Owners Residence...aka The Dungeon...The Owner is seated behind his desk in thought...and The Commissioner has just sat down...in The Owners desk guest chair...this time...a tumbler full of Aethran Whiskey is already waiting for him...):

Owner - My friend...before we start...with last nights results and activities...how did it go...with Lance Hoyt?...

Commissioner (takes a big gulp of the whiskey...partially to help offset...the fact that the gorgeous woman's picture...is now off of The Owners desk) - My lord...suprisingly...he does seem genuinely interested in the castle...as well as the McDermott line...however...

Owner - I knew...there was an...however...about Hoyt...

Commissioner - In order to test him...I decided to bring up...the bolt of lightning that hit the castle...that caused that horrific fire and all of those deaths...over a thousand years ago...but from his reactions sire...it was all news to him...

Owner - Very clever...so actually...he's not...that genuine...what else?...

Commissioner - More than anything...he wants to have a...one on one conversation with you...forgive me but...I shot from the hip again...I told him that you were very busy...and a meeting would be highly unlikely...but what disturbed me the most was that...the very last thing that he said was..."You know...what strikes me the most...about the owner is...I wouldn't be suprised...if he wasn't the only...surviving McDermott"...

(For the first time...The Owner looked shaken...The Commissioner...seeing The Owner rocked by this...suddenly felt equally...as rocked).

Owner - I want Hoyt under even more...constant surveillance...than before...

Commissioner - Yes...my liege...

(Wanting to change the vibe in the room...and in the process...forgetting to ask about what happens if we have an odd amount of competitors left):

Commissioner - So...about last night...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


1.  Al Snow defeated Cheeseburger via Pinfall courtesy of his Multiple Head Butts at the 3 minute mark...


Owner - Sounds to me...like this match was a...merciful beating...

Commissioner - I don't think I...could have put it any better...than that sire...Cheeseburger couldn't execute one move against him...at all...after about 15 Head Butts...by Al Snow...and one shot...from Head...that was all...she wrote...

Owner - I take it there's really not much...to discuss when it comes to...outside the ring...with these two?

Commissioner - O contraire...my liege...I don't even know where to begin...

Owner - For real?

Commissioner - For starters...Al Snow is convinced that he...is The Irish King...and this is his castle...he came to the ring wearing a long red cape...that he made from the curtains in his room...and a crown that he stitched together....from the cardboard centers of 30 rolls...of toilet paper...after he pinned Cheeseburger...he whispered to him..."Wait for my signal...because we are all going...to invade Iceland...those frozen nerds...will all be powerless against us"...

(At this...The Owner just stared...incredulously...back at The Commissioner)...

Commissioner - Oddly enough sire...Al Snow isn't the one that concerns me...of these two...

Owner - Dare I ask...how come?...

Commissioner - Out of all of the competitors...the only one that has eluded being recorded...and is hardly captured on film...is Cheeseburger...I think he read the entire contract...and every word...

Owner - Have him...followed...by one of the staff...and keep me posted...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


2.  Mike Quackenbush defeated Konnan via Pinfall courtesy of his Black Tornado Slam at the 30 second mark...


Commissioner - Unlike Snow defeating Cheeseburger sire...in this match...Quackenbush simply outclassed Konnan...he made him look...untalented...unfocused...and old...the Black Tornado Slam was only the fourth move of the match...Konnan Slapped Quackenbush In The Face...and then the next thing he knew...it was all over...

Owner - Konnan...underestimated Quackenbush?...

Commissioner - Ohh...yeah...

Owner - Anything else...thought provoking about...these two?...

Commissioner - Well...Konnan is definitely trying...to shop around...and build a new stable around his man...Eddie Kingston...

Owner - I can see that...

Commissioner (now definitely realizing / picking up the fact that...The Owner is considering the same) - And Quackenbush is very interested...in what you have built here...he wants to discuss...going into business with you...

Owner - How...exactly...

Commissioner (takes a hearty swig of the whiskey) - He thinks...that this locale...and roster...would make one hell...of a fed...

Owner (thinks for a second...and also takes a gulp of whiskey) - Hear him out...and let me know...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


3.  Adam Page defeated Johnny Gargano via Pinfall courtesy of his RIGHT OF PASSAGE finisher (A Kneeling Back To Belly Piledriver) at the 12 minute mark...


Owner - Now that's one result...I didn't see coming here...

Commissioner - After Adam Page jumped Johnny Gargano before the bell...what then ensued was 12 minutes of offense...comprised of just about every move Adam Page has...in his repertoire...it took him 12 minutes to relentlessly beat Gargano before he could pin him...with the third execution in a row...of his finisher...

Owner - What happened to Gargano?...

Commissioner - Not sure...Page is definitely in cahoots with Adam Cole...same 50/50 split scenario that Black and Elgin have going...but Gargano seemed off sire...distracted I guess...

Owner - Now that's...odd...why?...

Commissioner - He seems to be more interested in his little notepad...that he carries around wherever he goes...

Owner - What's he writing?...

Commissioner - Strangely enough...poetry...he seems to be immersed in the...ambiance and simplicity here...the maids...dig it...

Owner (with a smile) - Or he's losing his mind...being away from...all technology...

Commissioner (with a slight smile) - That would be my guess...sire...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


4.  Adam Cole defeated Rob Van Dam via Pinfall courtesy of his Diving Crossbody at the 27 minute mark...


Owner (with a smile of suprise and satisfaction) - So in the same night...we had both the shortest...and the longest...matches of the tournament...so far...

Commissioner - This match was one for the ages...my liege...although my favorite to win the tournament...Rob Van Dam lost the match...it was a mythic effort...from both sides...

Owner - I'm all ears...

Owner - The first 12 minutes of this match...was an absolute stalemate...both wrestlers pulled out all the stops...Van Dam scored near falls with his Body Scissors Cradle and a near perfect 5 STAR FROG SPLASH...to which Cole answered with both his FLORIDA KEY and PANAMA SUNRISE...at this point...the two of them just stared down each other...and then locked up again...as if the match just started...

Owner - What was the difference here?...

Commissioner - Cole owned him outside the ring...the turning point came when Cole Delay Vertical Suplexed Van Dam through the announcers table...knocking out one of the announcers...as well...

Owner - Huh...

Commissioner - From that point on...it was 15 minutes of blistering offense by Cole...met by supernatur resilience by Van Dam...when Cole finally pinned Van Dam...it was his 8th attempt...to do so...Cole even helped him up...off the canvas...


Owner - Sounded amazing...what's going on behind the scenes with Van Dam?...

Commissioner - From what he gathered...he wants to win this tournament because..
a tournament like this has never been held before...he said, "All the worlds a stage...and I want the brightest spot"...

Owner - I respect that...now what of Cole?...

Commissioner - Well...three of the maids had to call out this morning...when their supervisor finally got one of the ladies to explain why...one of them finally said..."Adam Cole...BAY BAY"...as they all snickered...

Owner - Now I really...respect that...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


(Note: At this point...as The Commissioner made his way out of..."The Dungeon"...he continued to think to himself...about The Owner...and the following conversation from last night...that he didn't tell the Owner about):


(The scene is from The Commissioners chambers...highest rooms in the tower above Mcdermott's Castle...at midnight...the only ones besides The Owners...that aren't miked up...)

Sami Callihan - You know...commishy baby...before you...and I...become...wonderful friends...I think...it's in...Our...best interests...if I prove to you...that I have...what I like to call...the shadowy...sight...

Commissioner (trying to keep his cool...but Callihan unnerves him) - I'm listening...

Sami Callihan - For example...I know for a fact...that you have a concern...about what happens...when there is only...an odd number...of us...left in the tournament...

Commissioner (heart pounding and sweating some now) - Yes that's true...but anyone...might have that concern...

Sami Callihan (creepy smile) - That's...a slippery answer...I like that...however...my answer to that...is...once you ask...the grand...and exalted Owner this...I know...precisely...what he is going say...

Commissioner - Which is...

Sami Callihan (smiling at his own ability) - He...will tell you that...another wrestler is on his way...to this island...a masked wrestler...and that he...is the wrestler...formerly known...as Tursas...and this...masked wrestler...will now operate under the name of...The Equalizer...

Commissioner (thinks for a bit) - I plan on asking The Owner this question...tomorrow morning...

Sami Callihan - Wonderful...after that...you will know...that I'mmmmm...Not...bullshiting you...and You...will begin...to see...the many...mutual possibilities...of a...friendly...business relationship...between you...and I...

A Billion Reasons...(A Tournament)...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[TTX]

Quack wins in 30 seconds while Cole needs 27 minutes to knock off RVD....awesome tourney so far.

[Crossbones]

I'm not sure who Adam Page is but I was hoping that Johnny Gargano would have won.

my picks:
1. Chuck Taylor
2. Justin Credible
3. Dan Severn
4. Kevin Steen

[TTX]

Adam Page is one of the rising stars in wrestling right now.

[Mad Kanter]

I like Tyler Black and Jay Briscoe in this tournament.

Morning TTX!

Yep it seemed like a night of extremes.

Cole vs RVD was totally wild. And towatds the end Van Dam showed outrageous heart.

After chapter 5's matches, then all of the wrestlers will start a second round where they all wrestle in one match.

This round will be tense because some will go 0 - 2 and will be faced with elimination.

Here's to hoping they give us a hood show, shit they're getting paid well enough lol.

Thank you as always for your support man!

Morning Crossbones!

Solid picks. Im thinking the same except I think Jay Lethal takes Credible.

Yep as Troy mentioned Adam "Hangman" Page is an up an comer.

Something I really dig is he took his wrestling surname of Page in honor of Led Zeppelins Jimmy Page. I like him 5 times better now lol.

But I really thought Johnny Gargano would have beaten him inside of 6 minutes. But he just didn't have it.

I thank you brother!

Morning Mad Kanter!

Rock solid choices my friend.

I was hoping that I had picked a compelling enough group of wrestlers to make this interesting.

Me personally, I am a big fan of The Whole Fn Show.

But if he doesn't win it, then I'm torn between a few: Johnny Gargano, A.J. Styles and a sleeper pick. The oldest competitor in this - Dan The Beast Severn.

Hopefully they don't dissapoint.

A head up - At the end of this next fifth chapter, The Equalizer becomes a part of the mix here in the tournament...

Thanks very much for your kind words and support - it goes a long way bro.

(Chapter 5)


4th night of matches:
-----------------------------------------

1.  Chuck Taylor  vs  Jerry Lynn
2.  Justin Credible  vs  Jay Lethal
3.  The Sandman  vs  Dan Severn
4.  Davey Richards  vs  Kevin Steen

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The Owner & The Commissioner:
----------------------------------------------------------


(The scene is from...within the candle lit Owners Residence...aka The Dungeon...The Owner is seated behind his desk in thought and anticipation...and The Commissioner has just sat down in the desks guest chair...this time...a tumbler full of Aethran Whiskey is already waiting for him...and the woman in the picture frame...is back on The Owner's desk).

(Before The Commissioner and The Owner got to the match descriptions from the previous night...they needed to discuss a few items...things are starting to get...a bit complicated here...the following was discussed...and/or recently occurred):


A) - Lance Hoyt - Is under constant surveillance...and Hoyt...in turn...watches everything and everybody...inside his private underground guest chamber...he has meticulously sketched the castle...as well as the grounds...as if he's planning something...and according to The Owner... there is a possibility...that a distant and jealous relative of The Owner...may have sent Hoyt here to...at the very least...rattle The Owner...or even worse...in addition to being under constant surveillance...he is being followed...


B) - Mike Quackenbush - The Commissioner relayed to The Owner that Quackenbush definitely...wants to invest in future wrestling productions here at the castle...specifically and foremost...partnering...to create an all-star fed...The Owner is strongly considering it...but what The Commissioner didn't tell The Owner about the discussion he had with Quackenbush was that...Quackenbush knows that The Commissioner...is really the person who makes all of this happen here...and when Quackenbush asked The Commissioner if he...really trusts The Owner...The Commissioner hesitated a little...before he said yes...but The Commissioners silence...was deafening...


C) - A Fire During A Match Last Night - The Commissioner told The Owner that apparently a fire was...inadvertently was started by Brodie Lee...as he was careless with a cigarette...by the wall on the far side of the castle...it was put out...but it took about 20 minutes to do so.


D) - The Equalizer - As he mentioned to Sami Callahan...the night before...The Commissioner asked The Owner about the scenario of an odd amount of wrestlers left in the tournament...in between the match cycles...and The Owners answer to this was word for word...what Sami Callihan had prophesied...


Commissioner - So...sire...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


1.  Jerry Lynn defeated Chuck Taylor via Pinfall courtesy of his CRADLE PILEDRIVER finisher at the 9 minute mark...


Owner - Tough for any match...that followed Adam Cole vs Rob Van Dam...to be able to live up...to it...

Commissioner - Well...the first...half of the match was pretty competitive...and evenly matched...the turning point came when Lynn...executed a very powerful...German Suplex that really rocked...Taylor...once Lynn knew Taylor was in trouble...he pulled out the big guns...including his Twisting Leg Drop From Apron...and from there...Lynn executed an absolutely perfect version...of his finisher...

Owner - So what are these...two...up to...otherwise?

Commissioner - Jerry Lynn...from all accounts...seems to be the only one...of the competitors whos enjoying...being off the grid for a while...

Owner - Uh...huh...and Taylor?...

Commissioner - Chuck Taylor seems to have...snapped some...sire...

Owner - How?...

Commissioner - Well sire...Taylor has wrestled under many...different names...and...for some reason...it's gotten to the point where...he isn't the same person...anymore...for long...he's even mixing up his aliases...for example...when he signed his tournament contract...he signed it...three times...once as Chuck Taylor...once as Scoot Azerbaijan...and once...frighteningly...as Touch Beanbag...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


2.  Jay Lethal defeated Justin Credible via Submission courtesy of his KOJI CLUTCH secondary finisher at the 9 minute mark...


Commissioner - This one sire...was a decent back and forth match inside the ring...and a total...four round fight outside the ring...both Credible and Lethal blasted each others heads into...ring steps...guardrails...ring posts...the announcers table...and the ring apron...

Owner - Sounded like a...what do they call it...a...Slobberkicker?...

Commissioner (a little suprised that The Owner...had never heard of Slobberknocker before) - It was all over the place...but eventually...Lethal won the last two brawls outside the ring...and then he went for his finisher...The Sandman tried to interfere on behalf of Credible...but he was speared to the ground...by Sugar Dunkerton...

Owner - Not bad...not bad...what else?...

Commissioner - It appears that Credible and The Sandman...aka The Booze Brothers...plan on buying a brewery...with whatever they can get here...and there is definitely...an alliance now between...Dunkerton and Lethal...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


3.  The Sandman defeated Dan Severn via Pinfall courtesy of his SINGAPORE CANE primary finisher at the 18 minute mark...


Owner - Was this match...as bloody...as I am picturing it?...

Commissioner - No...much bloodier sire...this match was a hardcore classic...both Sandman and Severn were bruised...and bleeding badly after this one...even after The Sandman actually broke...his Singapore Cane over Severns head and pinned him...both of them lay sprawled out on the canvas...for quite sometime...Dan Severn lost a tooth...and The Sandman has a bad limp now...

Owner - What was the deciding factor here?...

Commissioner - Honestly sire...I think it was because as soon as Severn was working up...to executing his WAKIGATME finisher...The Sandman desperately reversed the offense...I think...if Severn would have landed his finisher...he would have broken The Sandmans arm...in at least one place...

Owner - Well...I know Sandmans story...what of Severn?

Commissioner - This is Severns last...hurrah...he's retiring for good after this...

Owner - Just how old...is he?...

Commissioner - When we asked him that...or anyone asks him that...he says the same thing...None of Your Damn Business...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


4.  Kevin Steen defeated Davey Richards via Pinfall courtesy of his F-CINQ finisher (A Firemans Carry Facebuster) at the 6 minute mark...


Owner - I was expecting...so much more...from these two...

Commissioner - Sire...this was the most ferocious...six minutes...that I've ever seen...this was the second best match...after Cole & Van Dam...

Owner - Do tell...

Commissioner - Theres no way that...Steen and Richards could have kept up that pace...much longer...Steen won the lockup...and basically tried to end it right away...with a submission attempt via his Sharpshooter...and a ring shaking execution of his PACKAGE PILEDRIVER...but Richards fought through them...

Owner - Alright...

Commissioner - Steen went high risk a few times off the top rope...but both times Richards made him pay...once with a Powerslam Reversal and once with a Bulldog Reversal...then Richards went to work on him...

Owner - How?...

Commissioner - Via Richards...Alarm Clock...and Kicked To Death...he busted Steens face open and...for the rest of the match...had Steen protecting his left ribs...then when the match went outside the ring...it really got interesting...

Owner - Go on...

Commissioner - Richards had the upperhand at this point...but once he went after Steen outside the ring...everything changed...Steen totally frenzied...he Hammerfisted Richards senseless and then grabbed his head...and completely bit Richards face apart...he was like a rottweiler...who just got...a second wind...from there...Steen shoved Richards back into the ring...and hit his finisher...

Owner - A lot better...than I thought...how about outside...the tournament?...

Commissioner - If you can believe it...Davey Richards is in medical school...he's funding his medical education with...whichever amount he wins from this tournament...

Owner - Didn't see that coming...

Commissioner - Kevin Steen sire...is something...I didn't see coming either...when he had signed off on his contract for the tournament...he had left the room briefly...I read a group text that was on his phone...it was with a "JJ and an SC"...they had told Steen that "JC is all taken care of"...to which Steen replied..."Excellent"...

Owner - Forgive me my friend...but what's so...significant about that?...

Commissioner - 3 days ago sire...Jim Cornette was reported as a missing person...

Owner - So...JJ and SC...could be...

Commissioner - Jimmy Jacobs and Steve Corino...

Owner - Huh...


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


The Commissioner & Sami Callihan:
---------------------------------------------------------------


(The scene is from The Commissioners chambers...highest rooms in the tower above Mcdermott's castle...the only ones besides The Owners...that aren't miked up...or videoed):


Sami Callihan (with concrete confidence) - Ssssssssso...was I right...about...The Equalizer...

Commissioner - Ok...you have definitely proven that you have this...shadowy sight...as you call it...but I have one question for you...before whatever...you and I are...goes any further...

Sami Callihan - Digame...Por...Favor...

Commissioner - What is it exactly...that you want...from me?

Sami Callihan - For you...to help me fulfill...my destiny...of being an extremely...well funded source...of absolute chaos...and besides that...You...really are...so much...better off...with the devil you know...aka...Moi...as opposed to the...devils that you don't...who are all soon headed...this way...actually...

Commissioner (breaks out his own bottle of "Cleansed" - (The Aethran Whiskey) - and pours both of them a tumbler full...he and Callihan lock eyes for quite sometime...with neither blinking...until) - Ok...what do you want...

Sami Callihan (downs a big gulp of the whiskey  as smoothly...as one who has had the 110 proof whiskey before) - Well for starters...my next...random...opponent...in this nightly...worthwhile...endeavour...will be...Sugar Dunkerton...

Commissioner (thinks for a moment) - Done...

Sami Callihan (with a slight smile after another gulp) - You're...move...

Commissioner - The fire...last night...seemed very...odd...it feels as though Im...missing something...Brodie Lee doesn't smoke...

Sami Callihan - True...in the 20 minutes or so...surrounding the fire...someone escaped from the castle...searched for something on the island...found what he was looking for...and then slipped back inside...undetected...he's the only one who read the entire...contract...

Commissioner & Callihan - Cheeseburger...

Sami Callihan - Yes...He is in cahoots...with Lee...and they know something about...The Unfound...

Commissioner - Just a rumor...after the fire it was never found...

Sami Callihan - No...it isn't...and I think Cheeseburger & Brodie may be onto something...

Commissioner (thinks again for a moment...and takes out his cell phone...and accesses the picture The Commissioner took...of the breathtaking strawberry blond haired woman in the picture frame...when The Owners back was turned) - Well get to that soon enough...Who's this?...

Sami Callihan (with a deep laugh) - Speak...of one of...the devils now...my friend...you would be so...much better off...having nothing to do...with this woman...

Commissioner - I'm still listening...

Sami Callihan (inhales and exhales slowly) - What do you know...of The Galaxian...Wrestling...Federation...

Commissioner (trying to impress Callihan) - It's more than likely...in one of those...slavic countries...I believe...

(Sami Callihan stares back at The Commissioner for some time while inhaling...and then starts to slowly...and deeply...exhale) - You're gonna need...another drink...

The Equalizer:
----------------------------


(The scene is a tiny wooden dock...at the tower end of the island...two members of The Owners security force are looking through the moonlit mist...and then they hear oars being placed...repearedly in water...on both sides of a raft...soon the raft becomes more visible...and then the raft pulls up to the small dock...and off of the raft walks...The Equalizer...a truly gigantic man...wearing a solid black...wrestling mask...).

Smaller Security Guard - Greetings...Tursas...

(The Equalizer...emits a low growl...and lumbers up towards the castle gate...to where The Owner stands...):

Smaller Security Guard (once The Equalizer is hopefully out of earshot) - Man...this Tursas dude...makes me nervous...he's huge...

Larger Security Guard - Tursas doesn't make me nervous...but you know what does?...

Smaller Security Guard - No...

Larger Security Guard - The fact that...that thing...isn't Tursas...

Smaller Security Guard - What do you mean?... makes you...so sure?...

Larger Security Guard - That...is about...5 inches taller...and a good...50 pounds heavier...than Tursas...I'd say...

Smaller Security Guard - Oye...

Larger Security Guard (with the sound...The Equalizer just uttered in his head) - That...monster...aint Tursas...
