LWF Fan Trav’s aCe 2119: The Battle for Centra
Looking down from the 2nd floor window, the figure standing in the shadows felt a smile creeping across his face. On the ground were a growing number of fans, curious as to what this new aCe federation is all about. The line was quickly forming into a small mob as the shadowy figure observed the line was rapidly growing around the building. He even heard a small chant of “a…C…e. a…C…e!!!”
While he was impressed, he quickly remembered this was unlike the CWF, a battle ground for professional wrestlers to settle their grudges within the confines of the squared circle. This was real life, as real as real can be…with lives of friends and loved ones hanging in the balance.
The figure emerged from the shadow with a more stoic look on his face. Aegis sat down next to the domed figure who was sitting in an almost trance like stance. “Nicodemus, I think you’re right. I mean, settling this war in the ring. Look at the fans out there. They’re around the block waiting to get in. But, well, it’s almost disturbing. They are looking for an entertainment niche, something they can watch to forget about their everyday lives. While us, well, this is our everyday lives.”
The domed figure snapped out of this stance to respond to Centra’s most decorated soldier. “I know your concern and understand completely. But realize this Aegis, if we don’t settle this within the rings of this new federation, the aCe, think of the innocent casualties that could incur. Just look at the turmoil Murdok has already caused in this dimension. I know you think of your wife, Trisis, often. Do you want others to suffer the fate she may be suffering from?”
“I don’t even know if she’s dead or alive, or worse…one of them. The thought of that makes me sick Nicodemus. How I miss her beautiful face, her soft voice and courageous heart. So help me, if Murdok has turned her into one of them…”
“Calm down friend. Although we are considered competing races, we both have the same goal…to end the madness that cretins like Murdok, Godsend, Rankor and Paganox have caused or have the potential to cause. Now friend, we must go out there with Rankor and Murdok and address this crowd and let them know about what the goal of this new federation is and what it’s mission is. Are you ready for this Aegis?”
Aegis mind drifted to looking back out the window. As he collected his thoughts, he thrust his hands on his knees and pushed himself up, standing like the proud soldier he is. “Okay, let’s do this.”
The two warriors, each representing their own race and agenda, stood side by side as they made their way to the ring. The crowd roared their approval. While they knew the heroic stature each of the men was, they were hungry for action. Since the closing of the CWF, the fans had to satisfy their craving for any kind of professional wrestling. Bootleg laser discs of the GWF and CPC were extremely popular. But this wasn’t just wrestling…it was a war.
As quickly as the cheering started, it promptly turned to a chorus of jeers, boos and some of the most vile language man has heard. An occasional foreign object would strike the two large men who were making their way towards the ring, but they simply looked ahead…eyes straight ahead to the ring and at the two individuals that stood waiting. And while the two were not friends, especially after Rankor betrayed Murdok a few months back, the two still knew they were better off as a team to defeat two common enemies as Nicodemus and Aegis.
Murdok simply grunted at them as he entered the ring while Rankor shown a devious smile towards them. While Aegis stood with fists clinched, ready for a fight if Murdok, or Rankor for that matter, made their move. Nicodemus stood calmly and asked for the microphone to address the capacity crowd.
“Friends, what you see here is a gathering, a gathering that was deemed necessary to win this war that currently that literally plagues this dimension we all must share. There can only be one winner, the winner of the Essence, something we all crave for our own purpose, whether its to bring peace to the dimension or (looking slowly at Rankor and Murdock) to bring death and destruction.”
Nicodemus motioned to a ringside attendant to bring him something that was apparently in a spectacular looking box. Nicodemus slowly opened the box and pulled out what apparently was a belt. But this was no ordinary belt. No this belt was made of the pure Essence Nicodemus was referring to earlier.
“This, this is what each group is vying for and what will end the war in this dimension,” declared Nicodemus holding high over his head for the entire crowd to see. “Tonight, you will see the first battle for the Essence. Twenty men will battle in a single elimination tournament to crown the first aCe Champion.”
The four men introduced their team and Nicodemus affirmed, “Enough of this talk. These fans do not want to hear of our “petty squabbles”. They only want action in the ring, which we will give to them. So let the battle for the Essence begin!”
aCe Heavyweight Title Tournament
First Round – Flatliner pinned Corporal Tek when Tek missed a turnbuckle charge (as the crowd began to roar their approval, Flatliner grabbed a groggy Tek and gave him a potent SHOCK AND AWE.

Corporal Tek injured 8 fight cards)…Godsend pinned Rouser following the REALM ETERNAL…Nicodemus pinned Krypt after NUCLEAR WINTER…Warfare pinned Cremator following a backward head slam.

Nemean injured 8 fight cards…Shepard pinned Noxious after EXORCISM (the blood thirsty zombie didn’t let the defeat stop him and went after Shepard, looking for his next meal. But Shepard was ready and blasted him with a dose of Anti-Virus.

Noxious injured 4 fight cards)…Lance At-Las pinned Jackyl following the MARS MANHANDLER.
Second Round – Flatliner beat Aegis by DQ when an overanxious Aegis kept pounding on Flatliner after the ref called for a break. (An irate Flatliner yelled at Aegis, “Good god man, you may hate my guts, but realize we are fighting for the same thing…to rid the dimension of pieces of scum like Murdock or Godsend. Aegis stood with arms stoically on his hips and told his former soldier, “I guess old habits are hard to break.”)…Paganox pinned Warfare after the PAGAN VOID…Ventross pinned Grovel following a top rope elbow…Murdok pinned Lance At-Las after POWER OF THE PLAGUE.
Quarterfinals – Flatliner pinned Godsend when Flatliner rolled through Godsend’s top rope press...Nicodemus pinned Paganox following the aCe Crusher (Slowly, Jackyll and Krypt were seen slowly creeping in through the crowd, with their goal to obviously attack Nicodemus. Krypt lunged at Nicodemus, but Ravager elder was prepared and fended off the attack. This gave Jackyll the opportunity to jump on Nicodemus’ back. Paganox had just shaken off the effect of aCe Crusher and attacked the Ravager. The SWAT Team quickly stormed the ring to rid it of the Primus natives. Nicodemus out 3 fight cards)…Ventross pinned General Rankor after SEVERED TIES…Murdok beat Shepard with CENTRA TAKEOVER
Semifinals – Murdock pinned Ventross following the Head Spear Takedown...Nicodemus was scheduled to face off against Flatliner, but due to injuries sustained against the natives of Primus, had to forfeit his spot sending Flatliner to the finals against Murdock
Before the final match, Murdok called out for this microphone. “My only hope tonight was for Aegis to face me man to man in the tournament final. But like the coward he is, he got himself disqualified in order not to face his superior…myself Murdock. But not to disappoint him, I was saving this for him face to face, but I’m sure he’s in the back somewhere watching restlessly. Aegis, you’ve wondered what happened to your beautiful bride Trisis? Why, she is right here.”
A figure of a woman slowly made her way to the ring, looking down the entire time..not making eye contact with the crowd around her. While it was a woman, it didn’t look like Trisis thought. This woman, well, she looked dead.
Murdok continued as he put his arm around Trisis, “Aegis, here is my secret weapon. One of the carriers of my beautiful Plague. Yes, she is your beautiful former bride, now my beautiful queen…I give you Trisis, Queen of the Dammed!”
A livid Aegis stormed out of the locker room, but aCe security was quickly prepared, stopping Aegis before he could hit the ring. The only thing Aegis could do was to shout a few threats towards Murdok. Lance At-Las finally came out to calm his friend, telling him they will get Trisis back, but this isn’t how it will go down. With security still standing between them, Aegis could only Murdok a look of doom as Murdock responded with a hideous laugh. Trisis simply stood there motionless and looking at the mat.
Finals – Murdok beat Flatliner with CENTRA TAKEOVER to win the aCe Heavyweight Title.
