aCe : Entertainment Xtreme

[Alexander Ubel]

The setting: Avarice's home.

"Betrayed by those I trusted."

"Denied my destiny."

"The aCe seems to have forgotten the Family Rose."

"Drastic action is needed. Steps need to be taken to assure victory."

"I step into the darkness and stare into the Abyss. It stares back."

"I step off the edge and am reborn."

"The Black Rose is no more."

"Long live the Heir Apparent."

"Long live 'The Blood Rose'."

Avarice steps from the room and rejoins Esperanto, Scorn, and a third figure cloaked in shadows. He is covered from head to toe in a modifed version of his old attire. The dark blue turned crimson and a new symbol emblazoned on his tunic.

"You are looking at the start of The Family Rose. Everyone watch your back. You never know who is behind you."

[Alexander Ubel]

aCe : Entertainment Xtreme[/u]

The Family Rose stood in the center of the ring to start the show.

Avarice, "Prodigy! The Family Rose has arrived and we demand gold!"

Avarice slaps Esperanto on the chest and hands him the mic.

Esperanto, "Your damn right boy! The way I see it, Beer Money Inc. has earned the right to challenge for the aCe Essence Tag Titles and we want that shot tonight."

Prodigy comes out on stage with The Bros Oaken.

Prodigy, "Now boys, I don't really think you should be getting a title shot just yet. So what I propose is..."

Kincaid interrupts Prodigy and whispers something to him.

Prodigy smiles, "OK Avarice, Esperanto you got it. The match starts right now but there is a stipulation. There will be a special referee. That man is considered the greatest entertainer in the galaxy and the top of the aCe food change. 'The Amazing One' The Amazing Mann!"

In a bright flash of light, Mann appears on the outside of the ring in chains. With a quick squirm he freed himself of the locks and stepped free on the chain as The Bros Oaken entered the ring and the match was on.

Beer Money vs The Bros Oaken[/color] : The match was pretty much one sided as Mann seemed to be in the way every time Esperanto tried to tag in Avarice which set the Blood Rose off and he got in Mann's face. The Bros Oaken used the opportunity to double team Esperanto and hit a Knucklehead Knock before following it up with the COUP DE GRACE for the pin.

During the celebration, The Others distracted The Bros Oaken as Ventross yanked Avarice from the apron and threw him into the ringside steps before rolling into the ring and spiking Mann with a wicked spear. The Ravagers broke off and retreated to the back as Esperanto & Scorn checked on Avarice and The Bros. Oaken checked on Avarice and helped him to the back.

Peacemaker is in the back being interviewed.

Peacemaker, "Pendragon, your actions last week were reprehensible and you have been judged. I have found you guilty and tonight you will be sentenced."

The lights go dim with only a sickly yellow light remaining to light the arena. The psychopath Sycophant is led out in a coffin size cage. The Painmaster opens the cage door and Sycophant rushes into the ring.

"WELCOME TO THE NEMEAN SHOW"

A spotlight centers on the stage as Ravager heavy metal is piped into the sound system and out struts Nemean sporting a shiny robe. Nemean has a mic and puts himself over as he makes his way to the ring. He steps inside and then addresses the crowd.

Nemean, "Soooo...it seems they have let the freaks out. I'' try not to make you uglier than you already are."

Sycophant vs Nemean[/color] : Nemean put on a good showing but the beating Sycophant only fueled he masochist and he soon took over and locked Nemean in the TOURNIQUET and the young Ravager passed out while in the move.

The action cuts to the back with the aCe interviewer trying to get a word out of Pendragon. The interviewer banged on the soldier's door and the big man finally opened his door.

Interviewer, "Pendragon, what is your response to Peacemaker's challenge?"

Pendragon stares menacingly, "My answer? My answer is this. Peacemaker you are not going to stand in my path. You saw what I did to Mr. Bloat and you are risking the same treatment just for stepping into my ring.

A spectacular light show exploded throughout the dark arena and Holocaust & Flatliner stepped from behind the curtain with various parts of their armor lite up in neon colors. The crowd exploded as the two made there way to the ring. Energy crackled around them as the approached the ring and upon entering, they stood in the center of the ring and touched fists and the turnbuckles exploded as the lights came back up.

A series of radio waves play through the ring and a techno tune begins to play. The lights shift to a green shade and Odyssey and Omni step out on stage. With a weird fluidity the two moved as one to the ring seeming to merge at moments and as they approached the ring they blurred into action and when they were visible again they were each standing on a turnbuckle and posed for the crowd.

The Shock Syndicate vs The Others[/color] : Omni & Odyssey dominated Holocaust with quick tags and double team maneuvers, even hitting CHRONOCASM on two occasions. Flatliner made the save both times and Holocaust was able to make the hot tag brining in Flatliner who put Omni down and hit his SHOCK & AWE twice in a row to keep him down for the count. Nicodemus attempted to break the pin but was unsuccessful.

Nicodemus signaled The Others and they jumped the severely exhausted Flatliner hitting him with the CHRONOCASM before rolling form the ring as Holocaust came in to make the save.

*Flatliner injured 2 cards*

"I AM THE LAW! YOU WILL BE JUDGED!"

A Narcissistic (think The Masterpiece)tune begins to play and the arena goes black onstage. A spotlight comes back on and crouched down in the thinkers pose is Peacemaker. Peacemaker slowly rises and poses for the crowd before strutting to the ring. He ignores the boos of the fans as he steps into the ring and lifts his right hand above his hand as if he still held the Essence Title. He begins to make a circle while pointing at the crowd and then gives them a thumbs down gesture as if he has judged them guilty. Peacemaker makes his way to the turnbuckle and leans in the corner.

Pendragon once again comes out to the ring with no music or fanfare and rolls into the ring and waits for the bell.

Peacemaker vs Pendragon[/color] : Pendragon used his superior speed to offset Peacemaker's power and was able to counter a toss into the ropes with a vicious piledriver. Pendragon let out a mighty roar and did a open handed pose before lifting Peacemaker up and hitting the OVERTHROW for the win.

Pendragon stood over the prone form of Peacemaker.

Pendragon, "You have learned what I am about tonight Peacemaker. I am a man with a mission. A mission of punishment. I'm letting you off easy tonight but do not make the mistake of getting in my way again if you value your health."

Peacemaker struggles to his knees but before he can fully rise, Pendragon charges across the ring and boots him right in the temple rendering him unconscious. Pendragon stares down at Peacemaker as the show ends.

Pre-Show match Ups

Ventross vs Avarice vs The Amazing Mann
Destiny awaits as Avarice once again gets a shot at the One Essence. Standing in the way though is the Ravager Ventross who seems pretty pissed off these days. The question is, can The Amazing Mann survive this match.

The Bros Oaken vs The Others vs Primeval Destruction vs The ArcAngels
The Bros. Oaken face some stiff competition at the PPV as they defend the aCe Essence Tag belts against three of the aCe's top tag teams in a Four Corners Tag Elimination Match. To lose both members of a team must be pinned.

Nes Kincaid vs Aspin Northstar
Aspin once again delves into the singles ranks as he gets a shot at Nes Kincaid and the Holovision Title.

Godsend vs Nightmare vs Darkseed
The former dominion has come to the conclusion that they operated better as a team and have come up with a way to establish leadership...by beating the crap out of each other in a Fight for Dominance Match where one member must pin both opponents to win. There are no eliminations in the match just a race to beat the other two guys.

Paganax vs Totalis vs Pendragon vs Peacemaker vs Shepard vs Mr. Bloat
The top tier of the aCe compete in a Syndicate's Choice Match which operates like the 20th Century Money in the Bank Match. While five of the men were a natural choice the fans were shocked at the choice of Mr. Bloat as the sixth choice.

Also on the card :

Esperanto vs Scorch
Scorch has taken exception to the current actions of Esperanto has challenged him to a Coal Miner's Glove Match to settle their differences.

Nemean vs Sycophant
Nemean has challenged Sycophant to a re-match in a Last Man Standing Match and the sick and twisted Masochist readily agreed, delighted at the prospect of pain to be inflicted....and received.

Tekaro vs Witchdoctor
A carry over feud from the ROC vs Harbingers has reared its head once again as Tekaro is seeking retribution for the lose he suffered in the cemetery

And in a special one night only event, Syndicate Technologies, Inc has used their considerable resources to bring you two very special Holo-Matches:

Nicodemus vs General Rankor

Aegis vs Murdok

[/b]

[Alexander Ubel]

aCe : Destiny

Tekaro vs Witchdoctor : Tekaro dominated for the whole match and hit the RING OF FIRE only to have Witchdoctor get his foot on the ropes. Tekaro snapped, grabbed his spear, and clotheslined Witchdoctor with it giving the mad doctor the DQ win.

Nemean vs Sycophant[/color] : The match was over very quickly. As soon as Sycophant was turned loose he bum rushed the young Ravager and beat him into the mat and applied the TOURNIQUET within a few moves. Sycophant had to be physically pulled away by Painmaster to release the hold. Painmaster waited several moments, jawing with the referee before even attempting to remove Sycophant.

The stage was set up with Syndicate Technologies high-tech equipment for the nights special event. Two matches pitting two of aCe's top retired men against two monsters...one who has been executed...and the other that is locked away forever.

Nicodemus vs General Rankor : This match almost was over before it even got started as Nicodemus hit Rankor with NUCLEAR WINTER but Rankor was able to kick out and then the fight was on. Nicodemus and Rankor traded stiff shots as the match saw both wrestlers hit their signature moves and counter move after move as the vied for control. Rankor won out as Nicodemus crashed into the turnbuckle and as he stumbled out Rankor whipped him into the ropes with GUILTY OF TREASON. Nicodemus was trapped and passed out soon after.

Murdok vs Aegis[/color] : Aegis out wrestled Murdok and after an Opening Salvo he followed up with RAMPARTS REVENGE for the pin.

The equipment was removed as the crowd cheered seeing some great action from days past and the next competitors came out, both wearing coal miner's gloves for their brutal match.

Esperanto vs Scorch[/color] : The match lasted no time at all as Esperanto charged across the ring with a running knee lift before landing a couple of one-two combos rocking Scorch and then knocked him cold with the DEAD MAN'S HAND to win a very decisive victory over his former teammate.

Esperanto got down in Scorch's face and started yelling disparaging remarks before rolling form the ring and grabbing his beer. He took a long swig of it before busting it against the steps and leaving the ringside area.

Paganax vs Totalis vs Pendragon vs Peacemaker vs Shepard vs Mr. Bloat[/color] : In the shortest match of this kind yet, Shepard watched as Paganax squared off with Peacemaker as Pendragon squared off against Totalis. As these four men were busy with each other Shepard used his monks to keep Mr. Bloat down and captured the contract in record time. The match was over in one minute forty-five seconds. Shepard escaped the others as his monks sacrificed themselves to keep the others from him.

Godsend vs Nightmare vs Darkseed[/color] : Nightmare charged Darkseed only to end up on the receiving end of a spinebuster slam. Darkseed attempted to quick pins on Nightmare only to have him kick out of the first one and Godsend break up the second. Godsend took a swing at Darkseed but also got hit with a spinbuster slam and then the BELLY OF THE BEAST. Nightmare broke up the pin and Godsend took advantage of the distraction to elbow Darkseed from behind. Darkseed fought Godsend off who bailed out of the ring to regroup while Nightmare reentered the fray and began brawling with Darkseed. All three men traded blows for several moments as Darkseed and Godsend took turns beating on Nightmare. Godsend hit Darkseed with The Realm Eternal and then hit Nightmare with HELL'S THRESHOLD and went for the pin. Darkseed broke the pin up but Godsend dumped him to the outside before hitting a second HELL'S THRESHOLD on Nightmare for the win.

After establishing dominance of The DOMINION Godsend gathered his troops and left the ringside area.

Nes Kincaid vs Aspin Northstar[/color] : Nes Kincaid wasted no time getting the win over Aspin Northstar as he dropped to his knees and hit the young warrior with a low blow and then rolled him up using the ropes for leverage with the NEW SCHOOLBOY to get the victory in two moves. Lance At-Las jumped into the ring and argued with the referee over the decision and after some review the ref restarted the match much to Kincaid's disgust. Aspin won the match by disqualification after Kincaid tossed him from the ring and used the title belt to level him right in front of the referee forcing the DQ. Kincaid retains the Holovision title.

The Bros. Oaken vs The Others vs Primeval Destruction vs The ArcAngels[/color] : All four teams make their entrance and Donk of the Bros. Oaken starts things off against Odyssey of The Others. Donk and Rorus dominated the Ravager and eliminated The Others quickly with two COUP DE GRACES on Odyssey. Omni attempted to save his partner but was stopped by Donk as Rorus made the pin. Upset at their loss The Others attacked The Bros. Oaken and hit Rorus with the CHRONOCASM. Warfare entered the ring and roared a challenge. Omni and Odyssey bailed from the ring as Warfare closed on the injured Rorus. Warfare didn't capitalize on the situation though and tossed Rorus from the ring to dish out some more pain but Donk assisted his partner and the double teamed Warfare on the outside before tossing him in the ring and hitting 'The Dog of War' with a COUP DE GRACE to eliminate Primeval Destruction from the contest. The Bros. Oaken are on a roll as they single-handedly eliminated to of the competing teams leaving only The ArcAngels in their way to a great title defense. Exodus was dropped by Hard As Oak followed by a BLACK AND BLUE that Gabriel saved him from and kicked out of THE BRUISING from Donk. Rorus kept Exodus was able to withstand the might of the Essence enhanced Bros. Oaken and caught Donk with a WRATH OF GOD before tagging in Gabriel. The ArcAngels hit Donk with JUDGEMENT DAY and Exodus charged into Rorus as Gabriel pinned Donk as The ArcAngels became the new aCe Essence Champions.

As the belts were strapped around the waists of Gabriel and Exodus the two men took one the look of their lost divinity as wings exploded from their backs once again and the hovered in the air proving to everyone that their powers were not gone but locked away and validating Godsend's claims that the fire of Hell still ran in his veins. A dark day it will be if The Dominion were to capture the Essence titles to reclaim their powers.

Ventross vs The Amazing Mann vs Avarice[/color] : Ventross attacked Avarice first thing as The Amazing Mann stood back and watched them trade blows before steeping in and locking Avarice in a Fujiwara Armbar and tried to get the tap out but was stopped by Ventross who stomped on his face. Ventross and Mann brawled as Avarice recovered and tossed Ventross from the ring to attack Mann. Mann fought back and went for UNBREAKABLE but was unable to lock it in. Ventross re-entered the ring and tossed Mann from the ring and turned to face Avarice who nailed him with a beer bottle provided by Esperanto before hooking him up and dropping Ventross with 7TH SIN. Avarice got the pin before The Amazing Mann could get back into the ring.

Before Avarice could get his hands on The One Essence, Ventross recovered and hit a MERCY KILLING and left the new champ laying. As Mann and Ventross left for the back, Shepard appeared on the ramp way and made his way to the ring. Shepard climbed into the ring and presented the referee with the contract and told him to ring the bell as he cashed in his title shot.

Shepard vs Avarice[/color] : Shepard hit the rising Avarice with a Silver Bullet before going for the EXORCISM to pin the already hurt and exhausted Avarice to become the aCe One Essence Champion.

As 'The Inquisitor' strapped on the belt he exploded in a bright golden light and stood glowing in the center of the ring in a glowing version of his holy armor that Shepard now wears to the ring presenting the fans with a look into the future as Shepard cries out.

"ALL THOSE THAT REFUSE THE GLORY SHALL FALL TO THE INQUISITION AND HIS HOLY ARMY!"

At that the two monks who had been accompanying Shepard and watching over him threw back their robes to reveal Gabriel and Exodus...The ArcAngels! The angels flew up and into the ring to join their leader as Avarice made his way up the ramp yelling obscenities at Shepard about the denial of his destiny.

A change is sweeping the aCe now that a rigid force for 'Good' has taken power. Only time will tell if this is a good thing or a very bad thing for the federation.

[loneriders1]

Nicely done my friend. Your fed will get my vote for the next fed of the month.

[Alexander Ubel]

Thanks for the comments, its always nice to know I have readers.

I'm putting the draft on hold for now and wait for the CAW option to go live. When it happens though the face of the aCe and GWF will change drastically.

[Mr. Hyde]

I just knew someone would get to use a Championship Scramble Match before I could! And that's one hell of a line-up for the match!

I'm interested to know how you plan on playing it out, as I have put considerable thought into it, and would like to see how you intend to do things. Perhaps you have better ideas in mind than I have. I'm also very interested to see how this thing turns out for you, too!

I always love to see Nemean and Nes Kincaid go at each other. They're very similiar to two sides of the same coin.

[Alexander Ubel]

aCe : Xtreme Prejudice

[/u][/center]

The show kicks off with the introductions of the competitors for the first match.

Kincaid's music blares through the arena and the foul mouthed champion struts to the ring, yelling obscenities at the fans. Despite his behavior he seems to have developed a strong following as cheers for the Holovision champion could be heard throughout the arena.

"ITS SHOWTIME!"
Nemean's new entrance music began to play and the young Ravager came out in a black and silver robe and sporting a reptilian female on his arm. Nemean steps into the ring and faced Nes Kincaid.

Nes Kincaid vs Nemean[/color]
These two men showed why they are the future of this sport as they went all out. Kincaid threw everything at his rival in an attempt to retain his title but was unable to keep Nemean down long enough to go for a pin. Nemean on the other hand hit several signature moves before hitting the SEASON FINALE. Kincaid was able to escape the first one and went to the outside and grabbed his title belt and rolled back into the ring. Kincaid was about to use the title on Nemean when the valet that came out with Nemean when she jumped on the ring apron and grabbed a hold of the belt. Nes was distracted and this allowed Nemean to hit a second SEASON FINALE for the pin. Nemean was awarded the Holovision championship and headed to the back while Kincaid argued with the referee.

Omni vs Odyssey
The Others faced off in a last man standing match and history repeated itself as Odyssey once again eliminated his 'other' to be the only version of himself in the aCe as Omni's loss cost him his contract. It seems the fates are sealed as the dark future Ravager stand triumphant, only time will tell if he is able to erase Omni from existence.

The ArcAngels vs The Dominion
The odds were defiantly in the Angels favor as not only did they have the Essence but restored divinity. Darkseed and Nightmare stood no chance as Gabriel and Exodus dominated the two former demons and retained their tag titles after Gabriel hit ELYSIUM'S CHARGE on Darkseed for the win. As Gabriel went for the pin Nightmare walked away from his partner and made no attempt to save him.

"The Inquisitor" Shepard came down to the ring carrying some shackles. As per the rules of the match the loser of the match would be banished from the realm back to their own. Darkseed tried to escape but ran right into an explosive WRATH OF GOD by Exodus. The ArcAngels shackled the fallen Darkseed and Shepard began an arcane chant and the form of Darkseed began to shimmer and fade, Darkseed left out a defiant roar before disappearing. The shocked crowd watched in awe as The Inquisition exited the ring.

Pendragon came out in his signature style of no nonsense, ready for action. No music or posing for the fans.

"I AM THE LAW"
Peacemaker made his way to the ring still holding his head from the kick he took last week. The doctors recommended he take some time off but he refused.

Peacemaker vs Pendragon[/color]
Pendragon went right on the offensive and attacked Peacemaker as he entered the ring and hit the OVERTHROW very quickly. Peacemaker powered out at one but Pendragon stayed on the offense and hit a second OVERTHROW, this time Peacemaker was a little slower at kicking out. Still dominating the action Pendragon punished the nearly unconscious Peacemaker and picked him up to deliver a third OVERTHROW and was hit full in the face by a DEATH'S SPECTRUM allowing Peacemaker to slip free and hoist Pendragon up for the PEACEMAKER'S OATH. Still suffering the effects of Witchdoctor's fireball, Pendragon was unable to kick out in time and Peacemaker claimed the number one contender-ship.

Witchdoctor entered the ring and Peacemaker stared him down before rolling from the ring. Witchdoctor had a mic and stood over the fallen Pendragon.

Witchdoctor, "It seems you have forgotten your place. You have forgotten me and now it has cost you. It has cost you dearly indeed!"

Witchdoctor charges up for another DEATH'S SPECTRUM but before he can deliver it Aegis makes a shocking return and chases Witchdoctor from the ring.

Witchdoctor screams from the ramp, "You can't save him Aegis! The Harvester comes! Do you hear me! The Harvester Comes!"

The One Essence Championship Scramble

[/color][/center]

Ventross vs Totalis vs Avarice vs The Amazing Mann vs Shepard

Avarice and Totalis started things off and the action got right under way. Avarice scored an early pin with 7TH SIN only to have Totalis make a comeback and hit the FINAL ROUND to become champion. Totalis looked to end things for Avarice with a second FINAL ROUND only to have Ventross enter and spear him to the outside and deliver a MERCY KILLING on Avarice to become the new champion. Totalis recovered and went toe-to-toe with Ventross, both men trading blows. Ventross gained the offense after another shoulder spear and then followed it up with two more spears before delivering a leaping tombstone. Avarice delivered a vicious chair shot to Ventross while the refs back was turned and tried to pin Totalis. Totalis kipped up as Avarice closed in and lifted Avarice in the FINAL ROUND to become the new champion just as time ran down and The Amazing Mann entered the ring and went right for Totalis. These two men put on a clinic as Ventross and Avarice were recovering on the outside. Mann locked Totalis in the tarantula as time clicked down and Shepard charged the ring. Totalis tapped just as Shepard slide in and attacked Mann who had just claimed the championship. Shepard delivered some hard shots but a turnbuckle charge cost him as Mann got a boot up and dropped him before locking in the UNBREAKABLE. Shepard stood no chance as Mann sunk the move in deep and kept it applied even after Shepard tapped. In the final moments the other three men fought desperately to get a pin but as time clicked down The Amazing Mann remained the champion as he still had the now unconscious Shepard locked in UNBREAKABLE.

Mann released Shepard and rolled from the ring to claim the One Essence. As he strapped the belt on, his eyes blazed bright blue, and he vanished from ringside only to reappear on the entrance ramp to pose for the fans. Mann spoke and his voice boomed.

Mann, "The Crown Jewel of the aCe has reclaimed what was rightfully mine. It seems my fellow compatriots couldn't pull off even getting involved in the tag match much less the blowhard Kincaid losing tonight. They simply aren't amazing, and thats what I'm looking for. Stay tuned people for Simply Amazing!"

With that Mann shimmered from view once again and was gone as Ventross, Avarice, and Totalis eased warily from the ring, all expecting an attack and leaving the prone body of Shepard in the ring as the show ended.

*Thanks to Hyde for the Championship Scramble rules.*

[Mr. Hyde]

Some very daring stuff going on with your storylines here, man. Good job!

I was, of course, interested in the Championship Scramble Match. It sounded great, how did you like it?
