Fans are huddled in seats around the Solid Core Gym in Concord, California, as the lights go dim, sending applause through the crowd. Ray White and Jimmy Pate sit at their small table on a platform just behind the ring, headsets on and ready to call the shots, slams and spills. On local station channel 13, EVPW airs to the few that knew it was coming and the others that stumble upon it in boredom. Lizzie Morna stands in ring, holding a microphone with the cord drifting back across the canvas, hooked to the 6 speakers they've afforded.
The lights kick on, flashing through the colors, simply lights in a box with colored cellophane over the front of them.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, wrestling fans of all ages!!! Welcome to the first ever Eagle Vision Pro Wrestling's Wednesday Night Genesis!"
The crowd stands up and begins cheering and clapping, excited to see how far their $10 went on tickets for the show. "Who Are You?" by The Who comes over the speakers, fans jumping to their feet in realization of what it means. Kingbear steps out of the back, a thin cloth covering being the only thing separating the guys in the back from those closest to the entrance. He walks around, tagging the hands of eager fans and steps up the steel steps into the ring. Lizzie hands him the microphone as the big man lights up.
"How are we doing tonight, Concord!?!"
The gym lights up with applause and cheers. Kingbear smiles widely and looks at all the happy fans, remembering why he got into this business in the first place.
"I know we didn't have a card printed up for this or anything, so many of you showed without any idea as to what you'd see tonight. Not hard I suppose when you're paying more for the gas to get here than you are for a ticket. We've got some big surprises for you all! Starting off with this.. I want to bring a good buddy of mine out. Ladies and Gents, welcome the one, the only, Vladimir Strife!!!"
'People Hate Me' by The Murderdolls plays as Vladimir Strife barrels out and the crowd lights up once more. He slides into the ring, climbing a turnbuckle and throwing his arms up in the air. He steps down after a moment, KB handing him the microphone.
"WHOOO!! Hell yeah, it's great to be here. Myself and Kingbear have worked up a beautiful card tonight, so without further ado, let's tell you what to expect here tonight!"
"First tonight, you'll be treated to a beautiful showing of EVPW's divas! We have the ever popular, ever sweet, former Unsung Glory Champion of GHW fame.... AMANDA HALLSWORTH!!!"
The crowd ignites, many remembering her from tv.
"And her opponent will be a newcomer, but not one to be undersold at all. For the first time in action, Hailey "The Menace" Barras!"
The fans, not recognizing her, give minimal response..
"And in our second bout of the evening, we have a triple threat match scheduled for 1 fall! In one corner, we have Crash Barley, a man I'm quite excited to see good things from! In another corner, the Tattoo-Ridden Reject, RAVEL DRAKEN!! In the third corner, we have their opponent, another man I'm glad to be working with, give it up for TRISTAN LYON!"
"Following that, we have the man who has just arrived and already has rubbed half of us wrong... DAVID PAYNE!! Trust me, you won't want to miss this guy in action! David will be facing off against someone perhaps even he isn't prepared for... ladies and gentlemen... leave your rock, your rap, your country at home... because nothing is quite like METAL!! THE METAL DRAGON!!! We'll see both of these men as they meet in the first ever 'Outside The Box' singles match! The rules are simply, no countout... and instead of falls counting anywhere, they count anywhere except in that ring! Prepare to see this action up close and personal, Concord!!"
Vladimir takes the mic from KB as fans are getting excited.
"Wait, wait... I get this part. Our 4th match tonight features two former champions and both are men I've been nothing but happy to work with or against in the past. In a No DQ bout... we have, in one corner, the Insane Angel himself, the highflying, death defying ALEX STALL!! ...And his opponent... a man with more scars than memories... quite possibly THE most seasoned veteran of hardcore wrestling... GNARFFLINGER! THE! BUTCHER!"
The crowd lights up once more, half of them on their feet now in excitement.
"But it only begins there, ladies and gentlemen! Our fifth bout tonight is the lead-in to the Main Event of the night! We have a good ole tag team match for you guys to double your pleasure!"
"You're damned right, we do!! We have the team of Darius Maxwell, who I would personal guarantee will excite and delight you all, and his partner, a man who doesn't know the meaning of 'quit', 'disappoint' or 'antidisestablishmentarianism'... El Conajo Blanco!! They'll be, no doubt, escorted to the ring by the lovely Trix, who will make it pretty damn hard to keep your eyes on the action, if you know what I mean!"
The men whoop and holler in satisfaction.
"And for this tag team, we found it only fitting to give you the best we could. A team of 2 of the biggest names we could find... someone to amaze and daze you! No need to pull them around though, this amazing team we found is-"
"US!"
The crowd shoots out of their seats, making a ruckus at the announcement that Kingbear and Vladimir Strife will be in tag team action.
"And last... but DEFINITELY not least!!! We have a Tattoo Needle Deathmatch!!! A Last Man Standing match where a tattoo gun is the only legal weapon! On top of it, the winner gets to put a tattoo on the loser of the match!!"
"In one corner... we have a legend in his own rights... a man that I hate to love and love to hate... the METAL WARRIOR HIMSELF, HUMAN FUCKING WRECKINGBALL!!!"
The crowd is ecstatic once more as KB takes the microphone back with a smile.
"And his opponent is by no means at all to be overshadowed... the incomparable... the amazing.... the man who's costing us more in Ice cream than he is in his contract... RHAPS!!"
The crowd goes crazy again, Vladimir and Kingbear smiling brightly at their reaction. Suddenly, their cheering is interrupted rudely.
"I think you forgot about someone, old timers..."
Bret Baxton climbs the steps up to the ring and makes his way in through the ropes, glaring down Kingbear and Vladimir.
"I thought this was a new age... not a second coming.. So tell, me, what are you two has-beens doing in my ring?"
Baxton shoots them a grin as Kingbear holds out his branchlike arm to hold Vladimir back.
"Has-beens? Do you have ANY idea who you're talking to?"
"Oh, I know exactly who I'm talking to.. want to make something of it?"
"You must be pretty slow... kid. See, there happens to be 2 of us... and one of you. So, how's about you go ahead and just pick your poison. Tell us which one of us you want to break you and we'll grant your wish, prick."
"I guess my math is off.... Actually though... I think yours
is. I'm not alone."
Bret gives a cocky smirk again as Vladimir spins around in reflex, catching the end of a lead pipe to the ribcage that sends him sprawling on the mat. The attacker smacks the side of the pipe against Kingbear's knee, his proverbially Achilles heel. The big man goes down to a knee and Bret jumps on him, stomping and punching him as he tries in vain to protect himself. Agent Tran raises the pipe again and smashes it down against Kingbear's knee again, the two men rolling him out of the ring afterwards and in front of the crowd.
Vlad gets up to his feet and pushes Tran back before nailing Bret with a huge right hand. He turns into a blast to the skull from the pipe that drops him like a bag of brick, Bret grabbing a steel chair from ringside and the two men continuing their assault on Vladimir Strife.
After they've worn out, they toss down their weapons, Baxton picking up the microphone as the fans boo and jeer their actions.
"Well, now, looks like these two are in absolutely no shape to wrestler... which means that unfortunately... El Conajo Blanco and Darius Maxwell don't have opponents.... Think we could fix that?"
"Sounds like a plan to me. Blanco... Maxwell... watch your asses! You're about to be in the midst of some very... very... Bad Company!"
The song 'Bad Company' plays as they make their way to the back, Lizzie checking on Kingbear and yelling for some help. EMT's make their way in and help Kingbear and Vladimir into an ambulance, fans worried as they leave and the night gets underway.
