(CUTTO: A shot of the cage hanging halfway down from the rafters.)

GHEORGHE: "And there it is. The cage that is going to be have electricity running through it during the next match … and I am told that even grazing the sides will send a shock through the body, Nick."

JIVE: "And as we see the workers underneath the ring securing the explosives under each turnbuckle … they’ll be in the back with their fingers on the buttons .. not knowing which button leads to which explosive."

GHEORGHE: "Every 15 minutes one of the explosives will be set off … and this match could get even uglier than the pole on a pole match!"

(Nick Jive shudders)

JIVE: "That will be a tough task to handle."

GHEORGHE: "The explosives are secured … and this electrified exploding cage match for the New ERA Television championship is one step closer to becoming reality."

JIVE: "Chaos won the championship from Jean Rabesque and he was all set to face Suicide here tonight … but with Suicide leaving the company it put the match in doubt.. until Spectre came out and attacked Chaos."

GHEORGHE: "I don’t know much about Spectre at all, Nick.. but he seems to be a pretty happy go lucky guy."

JIVE: "We’ll see if he’s still as happy when he’s getting burn marks all over his body … or if he loses a limb by standing too close to an explosion."

GHEORGHE: "Let’s head up to Carl Jacobs for the introductions …."

(CUTTO: The rampway as the lineup for the cage match comes onto the screen. The lineup then "sizzles" and explodes as we cut to Jacobs in the ring.)


Television Championship
Electrified Exploding Cage

Spectre vs. Chaos (c)

JACOBS: "The following match is scheduled for one fall … and is an ELECTRIFIED ….. EXPLODING ….. CAGE MATCH for the New ERA of Wrestling TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP!"

(SFX: Crowd pops)

JACOBS: "Introducing first…"

(CUEUP: ‘Whatever’ by Godsmack. The fans stand on their feet as a black robed, hooded figure walks down the rampway.)

JIVE: "That’s not Spectre … is it?!"

GHEORGHE: "I can’t tell!"

(The hooded figure rips off his robe to reveal Spectre behind it.)

JACOBS: "His origins are unknown …… he stands six foot three and weighs 260 pounds …………. SPECTRE!"

GHEORGHE: "Thank God, it is really him!"

JACOBS: "And his opponent…."

(CUEUP: 'You Could Be Mine' by Guns n' Roses. Chaos steps onto the rampway, holding the Television championship over his shoulder.)

JIVE: "Look at the determination dripping off Chaos’ face!"

GHEORGHE: "He knows this match is verrry serious."

JACOBS: "He stands seven foot one and weighs 305 pounds …… hailing from LAS VEGAS, NEVADA ……. He is the New ERA of Wrestling TELEVISION CHAMPION ……… CHAOS!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos walking to the ring …."

JIVE: "Neither one of these guys has very much protection against the elements here.. and New ERA, taking the greatest amount of caution they can, has suited up the referee in a fire resistant outfit to ensure that there can be some semblence of cloture here."

(Chaos enters the ring, and the cage slowly begins to lower. Chaos looks up at the cage, while Spectre looks at him.)

GHEORGHE: "The cage hits the ground and we’re ready to go!"

(SFX: Bell rings.)

GHEORGHE: "Both men are walking to the center of the ring .. and they lock up … Chaos with a knee to the midsection doubles over Spectre …. .. Chaos grabbing the back of the mask … AND HE YANKS SPECTRE TO THE MAT! Spectre’s head hit the back of the mat hard."

JIVE: "Spectre said he wanted to maim Chaos here tonight … but lying on the mat won’t help him do so."

GHEORGHE: "Chaos lifts him to his feet …. AND CHAOS WITH AN IRISH WHIP INTO THE CAGE…. NO SPECTRE WITH A REVERSAL …. AND CHAOS PUTS ON THE BRAKES RIGHT BEFORE HE WAS TO GO INTO THE CAGE!"

JIVE: "Chaos looking like he’s sighing a breath of relief …"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos turns … AND SPECTRE TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A REVERSE CRESCENT KICK!"

JIVE: "Peculiar choice there .. I would have dropkicked him into the cage!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre now with Chaos … and he is driving Chaos’ face into the mat repeatedly! The referee stepping in to make sure that Chaos is concious still … and Spectre on his feet.."

JIVE: "Spectre now picks up Chaos … and he sends him into the corner! Has it been 15 minutes yet???"

GHEORGHE: "No. The explosives aren’t going to go off yet. Spectre now charging in …… AND CHAOS PUTS THE BOOT UP AND SPECTRE HITS THE MAT! OH MY! The boot of Spectre grazed the cage … and sparks just flew!"

JIVE: "But it was only his boot! We need to hear some skin searing!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos dropping the elbow on Spectre … and look at the bottom of his boot .. the white has now been charred black!"

JIVE: "Something tells me that by the end of this match, Spectre’s whole white suit will be black."

GHEORGHE: "Chaos picking up Spectre … and he is signalling that he’s going to toss him into the cage!!! CHAOS WITH A RUNNING START … AND HE TOSS….."

(The lights go out as we see sparks fly everywhere from the cage!)

JIVE: "They need to turn down the amount, I don’t want to lose electricity everytime someone hits the cage!"

(The lights go back up …. Chaos is lying slumped on the ropes.)

GHEORGHE: "WAIT A MINUTE! CHAOS WAS THROWN INTO THE CAGE!! AND WHERE IS SPECTRE?!"

JIVE: "Spectre put back on the black hood and cape!"

GHEORGHE: "There is a man standing in front of Chaos wearing a black robe …… AND CHAOS SEES HIM AND HE CHARGES …. Chaos clotheslines this man in black ….. WHAT THE ….. THAT ISN’T SPECTRE ….. THAT IS PEPITO!!! PEPITO WAS ON STILTS!"

JIVE: "And Pepito looks horrified as he’s lying on the ground!"

(The lights go out again … after a few seconds we see more sparks fly… the lights come back on.)

GHEORGHE: "WHAT HAPPENED? CHAOS IS ON THE GROUND …. AND SPECTRE IS STANDING OVER HIM DOING A LITTLE JIG! Where did Pepito go?!?!"

JIVE: "The referee is berating Spectre telling him that he needs to stop! What magnificent mind games!"

GHEORGHE: "Pepito has disappeared from the ring … and Spectre is back … and Chaos … Chaos has deep red gashes on his back! Spectre picking up Chaos … AND HE IRISH WHIPS HIM AGAIN INTO THE CAGE …. AND CHAOS HITS THE CAGE AND LOOK AT THE SPARKS FLY!!"

JIVE: "Chaos just let out a very unpleasant sound as he hits the mat!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre standing over Chaos …. AND HE IS APPLYING A COBRA CLUTCH! The referee is down to see if Chaos wants to submit …. But Chaos is screaming no!"

JIVE: "Sitting on the burn marks on Chaos’ back has to feel very painful right now!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos is desperately trying to get out of the hold, but Spectre is wrenching on the jaw… AND CHAOS GETS AN ARM FREE! Chaos grabs the masked face of Spectre ….. and Spectre releases the hold … and drops the leg on the back of the head of Chaos!"

JIVE: "Spectre knows that he can’t let Chaos get any revenge on him…"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre is waiting for Chaos to get up … Chaos with his back to Spectre … Spectre grabs him and turns him around …. Kick to the gut … CRADLE SUPLEX BY SPECTRE!"

JIVE: "Spectre really getting to Chaos now."

GHEORGHE: "Spectre looking over at the turnbuckle …. And he is unsure of whether or not he wants to go up top!"

JIVE: "I think Spectre is trying to calculate how much time has gone by …. And also he wants to make sure that he doesn’t touch the cage!"

GHEORGHE: "Finally Spectre is walking over to the turnbuckle…. SPECTRE IS CLIMBING THE TURNBUCKLE …. Spectre taking extra effort to avoid touching the sides of the cage ….."

JIVE: "CHAOS IS GETTING UP!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos is up on his feet and he sees that Spectre is facing the cage …… CHAOS RUNS INTO THE CORNER AND PUSHES SPECTRE FACE FIRST INTO THE ELECTRIFIED CAGE!!! AND SPECTRE HITS THE CAGE AND THE CAGE SENDING SPARKS EVERYWHERE!"

JIVE: "Spectre just fell from the force of the shock to the mat!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos is standing over Spectre with a huge smile on his back as he reaches back to touch the tissue on his back….. and.."

(The lights go out again.)

GHEORGHE: "SOMEONE GET THESE LIGHTS BACK ON!"

JIVE: "I’m telling you, Tom.. we’ve got too many volts running through the cage!"

(Lights come back on … Chaos is still standing there, but Spectre is gone. A hooded figure in a black robe stands behind him.)

GHEORGHE: "WHAT THE HELL! CHAOS LOOKING DOWN ….. AND NOW HE TURNS ……. THE HOODED FIGURE WITH A CLOTHESLINE ATTEMPT … BUT CHAOS DUCKS ….. CHAOS TURNS AND BOOTS THE FIGURE IN THE FACE WITH A BIG BOOT…"

JIVE: "ITS TOOFUS!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre’s other stooge is in the ring now! Chaos picks him up by the throat…. CHAOS HAS TOOFUS BY THE THROAT AND IS CHOKING THE LIF.."

(The lights go out and a loud breaking noise is heard. They go back on.)

JIVE: "CHAOS IS DOWN! SPECTRE IS BACK!"

GHEORGHE: "There are remnants of a broken broom all over the ring! The referee now right up in Spectre’s face … AND TOOFUS HAS NOW DISAPPEARED! Spectre is doing everything in his power to try to trick Chaos."

JIVE: "Spectre’s mask is charred … he wanted revenge."

GHEORGHE: "But he signed onto this match … and now Spectre is calling for the SPECTREVISION! Spectre bringing Chaos into the corner ….. Spectre putting Chaos on the top turnbuckle ……. SPECTRE IS ON THERE NOW!"

(SFX: Buzzing.)

JIVE: "What the hell is that…"

(SFX: Boom! Debris from the explosion cloud the air as visibility is poor for a few seconds.)

GHEORGHE: "HOLY SHIT! THE TURNBUCKLE THAT CHAOS AND SPECTRE WERE ON JUST EXPLODED RIGHT UNDERNEATH THEM!"

JIVE: "I can’t see a thing, Tom!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos and Spectre are both on the ground …. This match may just end right now! The referee is over to both men…… BOTH MEN LOOK HORRIBLE!"

JIVE: "Look at the ring! The ring ropes have snapped, and now there is a gaping hole where the mat was in the corner!"

GHEORGHE: "The referee is wiping the front of his protectant mask off so he can see … and both Chaos and Spectre are rolling on the ground. Spectre goes to use the ropes to help him up … BUT THE ROPES ARE TOO LOOSE … SPECTRE FALLS FACE FIRST INTO THE CAGE AND JUST ELECTROCUTED HIMSELF EVEN MORE!"

JIVE: "The referee should have warned them!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos is crawling over to Spectre … CHAOS WITH THE COVER ….. ONE ………. TWO ………….. THREE—NO! SPECTRE KICKED OUT!"

JIVE: "HOW THE HELL DID HE KICK OUT OF THAT!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos very slow to get to his feet …… Spectre trying to get there … Spectre to his feet … but Chaos catches him …. TAKEOVER SUPLEX!!! Chaos now pointing at Spectre … AND HE IS CALLING FOR THE PYTHON-LOCK!! Chaos drags Spectre into the middle of the ring …. AND CHAOS LOCKS ON THE PYTHON-LOCK!! The referee down to Spectre who is clearly in pain!!!"

JIVE: "I can’t believe it!! Chaos is going to retain the Television …"

(The lights go out again.)

JIVE: "What the fuck! This is getting to be annoying!"

(The lights go back on. Chaos is kneeling in the middle of the ring, looking at his hands as Spectre is gone. A THIRD man in hood and black robe stands in the corner, with his fingers pointing at Chaos!)

GHEORGHE: "ANOTHER ONE! Chaos getting to his feet … AND CHAOS LOOKS PISSED! CHAOS CHARGES THE FIGURE ….. AND HE MOVES!! CHAOS GOES CRASHING INTO THE CORNER …. AND HE TRIED TO STOP HIMSELF AND HE GRABS THE STEEL CAGE!!! OH MY GOD!"

JIVE: "Chaos is yelling in pain as sparks fly from his hands!!!! Chaos just burnt his hands to a crisp!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos turning around …. AND THE FIGURE DROPKICKS HIM INTO THE CAGE!!! AND SHOCKS COME OFF THE CAGE AGAIN AS CHAOS SLUMPS TO THE MAT!"

JIVE: "Holy hell!"

CROWD: "N . E . W ! N . E . W!"

JIVE: "The fans are back into the groove of things after coming back from the dead after the pole on a pole match!"

GHEORGHE: "This figure now picking up Chaos …. That’s gotta be Spectre … he ran out of henchmen …"

JIVE: "And he’s handling Chaos …"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre now … trying to get Chaos off the mat …. But Chaos grabs the head of Spectre and drops to the mat …. Spectre’s jaw just bounced off the head of Chaos …"

JIVE: "But what if that’s not Spectre?"

GHEORGHE: "For championship purposes, it is him. Chaos trying to get to his feet …. And he is looking at his hands… they are VERY red…"

JIVE: "Here, let’s go put your hands on the cage … we’ll see how white your hands stay."

GHEORGHE: "Chaos shaking his head as Spectre is trying to get into the corner …. And I wouldn’t want to be anywhere but the center of the ring right now… Chaos CATCHES HIS FOOT!!! CHAOS IS DRAGGING SPECTRE-IN-BLACK INTO THE CENTER OF THE RING! CHAOS LOCKS ON AN ANKLE LOCK AND HE IS TRYING TO RIP SPECTRE’s FOOT RIGHT OFF!"

JIVE: "The referee is trying to ask Spectre if he quits … but he can’t see him underneath the hood!"

GHEORGHE: "The referee repeatedly asking him … AND FINALLY CHAOS CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE! CHAOS RELEASES THE HOLD AND NOW HE IS TRYING TO RIP THE HOOD OFF OF SPECTRE!"

JIVE: "The ref will at least be able to see him nod his head!"

GHEORGHE: "CHAOS IS YANKING ON THE HOOD ….. BUT HE LOSES HIS GRIP AND FALLS BACKWARDS!"

JIVE: "Chaos almost hit the back of his head on the cage!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos gets up .. and he rubs the back of his head …."

JIVE: "Look! Some of his hair is frizzled!"

GHEORGHE: "His hair must have hit the cage …. And now Chaos is turning back to Spectre …… Chaos has Spectre … AND HE PICKS HIM UP BY THE THROAT! Chaos is trying to strangle the life out of Spectre like he was doing earlier to Toofus!"

JIVE: "Let’s just hope the lights stay on this time!"

GHEORGHE: "BUT SPECTRE USES HIS FREE FOOT TO SEND A SWIFT KICK RIGHT INTO THE NUTS OF CHAOS! Chaos drops Spectre to the mat ….. AND SPECTRE WITH A RUNNING BULLDOG ….. BUT CHAOS GOT OUT OF THE WAY AND SPECTRE RUNS INTO THE ELECTRIFIED CAGE!"

JIVE: "NO! Spectre put on the brakes just as he was about to hit it!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre turns around … AND CHAOS WITH A BACK BODY DROP! Chaos waiting for Spectre to get up …. Chaos with a kick to the stomach … and now he has him up in a powerbomb … CHAOS WALKING OVER TO THE TURNBUCKLE … AND HE POWERBOMBS SPECTRE RIGHT INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!"

JIVE: "NOW GET OUT OF THERE, CHAOS!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos slowly backing away as he realizes where he was …. Chaos standing in the center of the ring waiting for the turnbuckle to explode .. but nothing is happening …. Spectre is starting to get to his feet!"

JIVE: "If Chaos is smart he’d get him out of that corner … chance are, since that corner is opposite the first one, that it’ll explode next!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos runs into the corner …. Chaos with some quick elbow shots …. AND NOW CHAOS IS BRINGING SPECTRE TO THE CORNER NEXT TO THE FIRST EXPLODED ONE!"

JIVE: "See, everyone listens to me."

GHEORGHE: "CHAOS IS CALLING FOR THE CHAOS BOMB!!! CHAOS LIFTING SPECTRE HIGH OVER HIS HEAD ……."

JIVE: "WAIT! Spectre is fighting it!"

GHEORGHE: "Chaos was making his way to the corner …. AND SPECTRE SLIDES DOWN HIS BACK!!! SPECTRE IS QUICK ON HIS FEET ….. CHAOS TURNS AROUND ….. AND SPECTRE DROPKICKS CHAOS INTO THE CORNER …."

(SFX: Buzz.)

CROWD: "HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!"

GHEORGHE: "OH HELL … THE TURNBUCKLE NEXT TO THE FIRST ONE JUST EXPLODED!!! CHAOS WAS JUST PROPELLED HALFWAY ACROSS THE RING!"

JIVE: "The referee is over there checking on his vital signs ….. I can’t believe it! I never would have expected!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre dropkicked Chaos into the corner … and as he hit the corner, the turnbuckle exploded!!!! Spectre, hooded in black, now walks over to Chaos ….. SPECTRE PICKING UP CHAOS …… Spectre now has Chaos in a vertical suplex ………. WAIT A MINUTE…. SPECTRE DRIVING CHAOS INTO THE MAT WITH A SUICIDE SCREWDRIVER!"

JIVE: "Uh…. Oh…"

(SFX: Crash!)

GHEORGHE: "OH MY GOD! THE RING COULDN’T HANDLE THE PRESSURE FROM TWO WEAKENED SUPPORTS AND ONE SIDE HAS JUST CRASHED TO THE FLOOR!!!"

JIVE: "Look!!! Spectre and Chaos are sliding down ….. THEY’re GOING TO HIT THE SIDE OF THE CAGE!"

GHEORGHE: "SPECTRE GRABBING CHAOS AND USING HIM AS A SHIELD …. CHAOS HITS THE CAGE AND THE SPARKS FLY AS CHAOS JUST GOT ELECTROCUTED AGAIN!!!!"

JIVE: "Spectre using him as a shield!"

GHEORGHE: "Spectre now with the cover ……… ONE ………………… TWO ………………… THREE!! SPECTRE WINS THE TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP BY ELECTROCUTING CHAOS!"

(SFX: Bell rings.)

JACOBS: "The winner of this match …… and NEW TELEVISION CHAMPION ……………….. SPECTRE!"

GHEORGHE: "And now the referee getting in Spectre’s hooded face for all the pranks he pulled in the match …… and Chaos is lying unconcious next to the cage … we need to get some medics out there STAT!"

JIVE: "The ref really berating Spectre … AND HE PUSHES SPECTRE! SPECTRE NOW GETTING IN THE REFEREE’s FACE!"

GHEORGHE: "The referee pointing a finger at Spectre … and now he’s taking off his fire protection suit…."

(SFX: Crowd pops huge!)

GHEORGHE: "HELLION!!!! ITS HELLION!!!! HELLION WAS HIDING UNDER THE SUIT!!!! HELLION IS NOW IN SPECTRE’s FACE AS SPECTRE IS BACKING UP …."

JIVE: "Hellion is demanding a microphone!!!"

GHEORGHE: "OH NO!!! SPECTRE WAS BACKING UP AND HE TRIPPED OVER CHAOS’ BODY AND HITS THE CAGE WHICH IS STILL ELECTRIFIED!!!!! SPECTRE NOW LYING ON TOP OF CHAOS!!!"

(Hellion is thrown one over the top of the cage He looks down at Spectre and shakes his head, disgusted.)

HELLION: "I've heard enough talk. You've run your mouth far too long. Tonight you've been silenced. I've sat back and listend to you spout one line of crap after another. If it's me you wanted then it's me you've got here and now. There just only one small problem."

(SFX: Crowd starts a ‘HELLION’ chant.)

HELLION: "What do you have to offer. What does beating you give me. Is it going to make them cheer me louder? Is it going to put even more money into my already full pockets? Because there's one small point you've been looking over every time you mention my name."

(Hellion steps forward to Spectre’s body.)

HELLION: "That victory over me meant a HELL of a lot more to your career then the defeat hurt my legacy. You go ahead, be the man, be the Television Champion. It really doesn't matter. You'll never... NEVER BE AN ICON!!"

GHEORGHE: "HELLION IS APPROACHING SPECTRE NOW WHO IS SITTING UP ….."

(The lights go out ….. the fans go silent..)

JIVE: "NO! NOT AGAIN!"

(The lights come back on … Hellion stands at the bottom of the downed apron, while Chaos is starting to sit up. Spectre, and the Television championship, are nowhere to be found.)

JIVE: "SPECTRE IS GONE!"

GHEORGHE: "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WHAT A MATCH! HELLION …. EXPLOSIONS …. ELECTROCUTION …… AND A NEW TELEVISION CHAMPION!"

JIVE: "And now PRODIGY!"

GHEORGHE: "We anticipated the ring would be damaged from this match … little did we know that it was going to be destroyed! So .. while ring crews come to put up a new ring for our main event … and while the medics check on Chaos ….. British music band PRODIGY is going to put on a 3-song set ….. JUST FOR US HERE AT DESTRUCITY!"
