[ Crisler Arena @ UofMichigan ] Ann Arbor, Michigan



PRESENTS ....

(FADEIN: Outside the arena as the ambulance is having trouble starting up .. the EMTs are trying to turn the key, but the engine is only clicking. They are on the radio calling for back up ASAP as they are worried about Nightmare’s condition. CUTTO: Backstage as the security guards are keeping close watch on Chaos as he is standing in front of Marcus LaRoque’s dressing room.)

JIVE: "Welcome back .. we are getting word that Chaos has been ordered to wait for President Marcus LaRoque at his dressing room … and he is accompanied by ten security guards who have their tazers ready and willing if he should try to make a move.."

GHEORGHE: "And it looks as if the EMTs are having problems with their ambulance as another has been called and is on its way!"

(CUTTO: Somewhere in the arena. Marcus LaRoque is seen standing with Suicide.)

JIVE: "LaROQUE IS WITH SUICIDE!"

LaROQUE: "I’ve HAD ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT! Suicide … get out of my building! I don’t want you anywhere near CHAOS or anyone else on the New ERA roster! You guys are out of control!"

SUICIDE: "Don’t worry, sir. You won’t be seeing me anyone. Suicide … is no more."

(Suicide walks away as LaRoque is dumbfounded … he turns and walks away. CUTTO: Announce table.)

GHEORGHE: "WHAT DOES SUICIDE MEAN THAT LaROQUE WONT SEE SUICIDE ANYMORE?"

JIVE: "Oh my god … I think Suicide has just quit New ERA!"

GHEORGHE: "Ladies and gentlemen, the past ten minutes have been the most harsh that I have seen since I’ve been in professional wrestling. Chaos charged the ring .. and it took four separate stun gun shots to get him to release the Python-lock … he was screaming that he wasn’t going to release it until he, AND SUICIDE, heard Nightmare’s bones snap!"

JIVE: "And now … now Suicide has quit New ERA!"

GHEORGHE: "What does this mean for Destrucity?! The electrified exploding cage match is one of the most highly anticipated matches on the show!"

JIVE: "Wait! I just heard that LaRoque and Chaos are in his office .. let’s see if we can catch what is going on!"

(CUTTO: Inside LaRoque’s lockerroom. LaRoque is sitting behind his desk and Chaos is sitting in the chair. They are the only two in the room.)

LaROQUE: "HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?!"

(Chaos stands, rubbing the bandage on his arm.)

CHAOS: "Hey... Suicide tried to injure me. That was his first mistake. Yet his biggest was letting go. He had the chance to put me out of the sport and he made the FATAL mistake of letting go. Tonight I showed him what NO MERCY really means. He’s lucky it was Nightmare and not him. But it's mostly his fault he's where he's at, and it's partly yours too.."

LaROQUE: "MY FAULT?! How is this my fault? I can understand that you’re angry about him not releasing the hold last week, but this is NO WAY to get revenge! They say that Nightmare won’t be able to compete for MONTHS … IF HE IS LUCKY!"

CHAOS: "You signed the cage match. You upped the stakes. You wanted to see how far the two of us would go. Well tonight I showed you that. I showed you just what I'm capable of and you’re here giving ME the third degree.(laughs) You and Suicide both got what you asked for. I can't wait til that cage match. When I get him in the Python-Lock in that cage. THERE'LL BE NOBODY TO STOP ME!!! Now if you don't mind... I've got a match to prepare for."

(Chaos turns to leave.)

LaROQUE: "OH NO YOU DON’T!"

(Chaos turns around with an eyebrow raised.)

CHAOS: "Excuse me?"

(The lockerroom door opens and four security guards come in after hearing LaRoque.)

LaROQUE: "You injured Nightmare … you endangered Suicide’s well being .. AND you put security, and the referee’s lives in danger. You were WAY out of line … and this is MY LEAGUE. I’M IN CHARGE HERE… and until further notice … YOU’RE SUSPENDED!"

(Chaos’ eyes fill with rage.)

CHAOS: "WHAT?!"

(The security guards form a line between LaRoque and Chaos..)

LaROQUE: "That’s right … SUSPENDED. You broke MY rules … and now you’ll pay. Sure you’ll get your Television Championship shot … BUT NOT TONIGHT, Chaos.. For now I want you OUT OF MY BUILDING AND …"

CHAOS: "AND WHAT????"

LaROQUE: "Simple... since you’re on suspension, you are no longer an active wrestler on this roster."

CHAOS: "SO?"

LaROQUE: "So should you decide to come back, you will not only be fined... YOU'LL BE ARRESTED!!!!!"

(Chaos tries to step forward, but the guards charge their stun guns.)

CHAOS: "You sure about that?"

LaROQUE: "POSITIVE!!!"

(Chaos cracks a smile.)

CHAOS: "Fine by me... won't be the first or the last."

LaROQUE: "Get out of here. I’ve got to go to the ring for some announcements."

(The security guards help Chaos leave the room as LaRoque straightens his tie… CUTTO: Announce table.)

GHEORGHE: "CHAOS versus RABESQUE isn’t happening tonight!"

JIVE: "The sacrifices Chaos makes to try to get to Suicide!"

GHEORGHE: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am floored. Suicide is gone! Nightmare is gone! Chaos has been suspended … and the title match has been cancelled! By god! What a night!"

JIVE: "And what about Mindkiller versus Alex Borden? What is LaRoque coming out here to announce??"

(Marcus LaRoque walks down the rampway to the boos of everyone in the crowd. He enters the ring and asks for a microphone.)

LaROQUE: "First off, I want to apologize to all of you out there for what happened in this ring moments ago. What Chaos did was despicable. And he is paying for it right now. Because of his actions, Nightmare is not medically cleared to wrestle, and won’t be for quite awhile, and thus is no longer on the New ERA active roster."

(SFX: Crowd pops.)

LaROQUE: "Also, I’m sure you’ve all seen, but Suicide has apparently given his notice. I do not know the circumstances behind his departure … but we wish him the best…."

JIVE: "So Suicide is gone?!"

LaROQUE: "And while we’re talking about departures … right here in my back pocket are pink slips."

(SFX: Crowd pops.)

LaROQUE: "We here at New ERA only want the BEST for our fans.. This means including the best talent we can on our roster. There are three men out there who do not deserve to be on New ERA’s roster anymore. Hell, one probably didn’t even belong here in the first place.. but VAMPIRO is no longer employed by New ERA of Wrestling."

(SFX: Crowd pops.)

LaROQUE: "ANGEL LATORA IS NO LONGER EMPLOYED BY NEW ERA OF WRESTLING!"

(SFX: Crowd pops.)

GHEORGHE: "El perno prisioner uno has been fired by President LaRoque!"

LaROQUE: "And finally …. MINDKILLER IS NO LONGER EMPLOYED BY NEW ERA OF WRESTLING!"

(SFX: Crowd shows mixed signs.)

JIVE: "What the hell, he’s scheduled next!"

LaROQUE: "After repeated attempts to get these individuals to give their all … it has become apparent that their hearts are not in New ERA of Wrestling. It’s unfortunate because Mindkiller had a real future here. And Angel Latora also was one of our bright stars. But apparently they did not want to give the same dedication to New ERA that New ERA was giving to them."

GHEORGHE: "But what about the Alex Borden match?"

LaROQUE: "I realize that Mindkiller was scheduled to appear tonight. But I made the call to Alex Borden earlier today letting him know he didn’t need to come to tonight’s show. Its unfortunate that we have to cancel a match due to these reasons … but hey …. I know how I can make it up to you…"

JIVE: "Free beer and hookers?"

LaROQUE: "How about some PAY PER VIEW MATCH ANNOUNCEMENTS?!"

(SFX: Crowd pops!)

LaROQUE: "As you might have seen earlier .. ‘The Messenger’ Trevor Cane has been having some problems with Juliet Marceau’s ULTIMATE surprise…. So …. At DESTRUCITY, only a month away ……. ‘The Messenger’ Trevor Cane will be going one on one with the ULTIMATE SURPRISE!!"

JIVE: "Yes!"

GHEORGHE: "I guess we WILL find out at Destrucity who the real messenger is, and who is the false prophet!"

LaROQUE: "And while I was sitting back in my office earlier today .. I was thinking, ‘hey. John Doe and Travis Smith seem to be butting heads… why not have them take each other on.’ And what I say, goes. So at Destrucity …. JOHN DOE and TRAVIS SMITH …. TIED TOGETHER BY A LEATHER STRAP!"

(SFX: Crowd pops)

GHEORGHE: "John Doe and ‘Too Sweet’ in a LEATHER STRAP MATCH!"

LaROQUE: "Then after that, I was thinking, well we can’t just leave Jonathan Marx and Troy Douglas out in the cold in tonight’s tag match …. So I went ahead and signed MARX versus DOUGLAS FOR THE PAY PER VIEW!"

(SFX: Crowd pops.)

LaROQUE: "Let’s see, that’s three … so we got two more."

GHEORGHE: "Wow! Marcus LaRoque has not only fired three wrestlers today .. but he is announcing FIVE matches that will take place at Destrucity …."

JIVE: "Well since Suicide has left New ERA, I don’t know how he’s going to replace the Electrified Exploding Cage Match between him and Chaos!"

LaROQUE: "Now I’m sure everyone saw that we recently signed the … eclectic … Madonna Wayne Grossard to a contract.."

GHEORGHE: "Eclectic? I could think of a few better words for MWG."

LaROQUE: "Well … he’s been scheduled for a TRIPLE THREAT match … involving, not only, PETER FILE…."

(SFX: Crowd pops..)

LaROQUE: "But we’ve also managed to rope in ….. for just this one show ….. ‘KING OF THE CLUB KIDS’ BEAU MICHAELS!"

(SFX: Crowd pops)

LaROQUE: "AND THIS WILL BE A ‘POLE’ on a POLE MATCH!"

(SFX: Crowd … sort of pops and groans at the same time.)

GHEORGHE: "Pole on a pole?"

JIVE: "Dildo, Tom.. a dildo on a pole. Like .. knucks on a pole … but a dildo."

GHEORGHE: "Oh my."

LaROQUE: "I hope those matches make up for the other things that have happened tonight .. and I’m sure that DESTRUCITY will be history in the making for New ERA of Wrestling!"

(LaRoque starts to exit the ring..)

JIVE: "Hey! That was only four matches announced! He said he was going to do five!"

GHEORGHE: "That is true!"

(LaRoque walks up the rampway.)

JIVE: "Aw that’s not fair!"

(As LaRoque reaches the curtain he slowly turns around.)

LaROQUE: "Oh wait … I promised one more announcement, didn’t I."

CROWD: "HELL YEA!"

LaROQUE: "I’m sorry … sometimes these things slip my mind. I forgot to announce the MAIN EVENT …….. CHAMPION VERSUS CHAMPION AS THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION LARRY TACT WILL GO ONE ON ONE WITH TELEVISION CHAMPION JEAN RABESQUE ……… IN AN I-QUIT MATCH!"

(SFX: CROWD EXPLODES!!!)
