Sam vs Pyro - No DQ

[Sycho Sam]

The fans brace themselves for the entrance of their hero turned villian, Sycho Sam. Cardinal Sin's Of War and Redemption hits and an apocalyptic guitar riff bursts through the speakers, accompanied by a constant double bass rhythm. The volume knob appears to be cranked up to 11 and many in the crowd - even those who actually enjoy this kind of music - cover their ears with their hands because of the inhuman volume level but to no avail. Determined as ever to display their contempt towards Sycho Sam and his protege Mikey Vandal, the EVPW fans boo loudly but their collective jeers cannot be heard over the extremely loud death metal music. As the lights flicker on and off, the tron shows some random clips of heavy metal concerts.

"You judge my cause
but you are mistaken
For I've seen the rise of this empire
in a glimpse of eternity"

The tron continues to show clip, changing to those of Sam and Vandal in action, both in individual matches and tag team matches. The Hardcore Headbanger appears at the entrance ramp, with Sam dressed in khaki pants and an unbottoned plaid shirt with his traditional doc martens boots. Holding his signature kendo stick, Sam walks down the ramp, paying no heed to the wide array of insults being hurled at him - only smiling cheekily as he prepares himself mentally for another violent bout.

"Making his way to the ring, hailing from an unknown location, weighing in at two-hundred and thirty nine pounds, he is The Hardcore Headbanger, SYYYCHHOOO SAAAAM!"

"Am I not the Steady Stream
of ageless cognition
that guides your fates
through the sewers of time?

Am I not the Fire
of ritual cleansing
that purged your holy blindness
for the Vision?

Am I not the Sacred Zero
of the lost beginnings
which gave birth to all mentations?

I am the crux of your salvation"

"Sycho Sam faces off with the returning Chris Pyro tonight - the man that he injured a month ago in a brutal TLC match. Pyro must clearly be looking to extract his vengeance - and also take control of the whole Company hostage situation that has slipped through his fingers."

"And this match holds some heavy stakes indeed! If we are to believe what Pyro said to his protege Kiba, he and his young partner are to join hands with The Company should they lose this bout!"

As the drums increase to a 'blast-beat' tempo, Sam restrains the urge to headbang, but his exaggerated motion of walking indicates that The Sychotic One is clearly intoxicated. One of the fans in the front row throws a can of coke into Sam's face which no doubt infuriates the Pakistani Brawler and after threatening the fan with his singapore cane, Sammy boy simply laughs and makes his way to the ring steps.

"the exodus of reason
to the sands of insanity
unveils a reflection , caught
in the waters of my inner self
a menacing taint of red

the wolves of my lust
howl in futility
awaiting the serenity , sought
in the grim depravation
and bloody carnage of war

the fog is rising
they shall see us for who we are"

Sam enters the ring and the lighting returns to its default state as the music dies down, prompting many in the crowd to breathe an exagerrated sigh of relief.

While Syco Sam is pacing around the ring, awaiting his enemy, the man he is going to attempt to remove from the Company's path. The lights go down as the fans rise to cheer for the man they would normally despise, but since taking a stand, have sided with.

And during the few moments we have left. We want to talk right down to Earth, in a language everyone can understand.

Guitar riffs and drums pick up as Cult of Personality by Living Color begins to play. The arena lights come up bright as Chris Pyro can be seen standing on the stage. His long black hair let loose over his face. He has on a pair of knee length pleather shorts, and boots with kick pads on the front. His wrist tape that covers his fist and most of his forearm is decorated with two X's on the back of Pyro's face. He walks to the ring, his eyes focused right on Sam as he marches determined to the ring, in order to continue his stand against the Company.

Lizzie:
And his opponent. From Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He weighs in tonight at two hundred and thirty five pounds. He is the "Rebel Ninja" Chris Pyro!

Pyro reaches ringside and turns towards the stairs. He walks up them with a quick jog before climbing the ropes from the outside. He perches himself on the middle rope, with one leg resting on the top turnbuckle. He yells out "It's time for changes! and I'm the on going to make them" before lifting himself up and dropping into the ring. He clasps his hands together and stretches them out while waiting for the bell to ring.

TBC: Sam

[Sycho Sam]

The bell is rung but neither man is prepared to take the initiative. Both The Hardcore Headbanger and The Rebel Ninja stare blankly into each other’s eyes as they revel in the fantastic atmosphere inside the arena. The fans show their support for Pyro with a “Let’s go Pyro!” chant accompanied by a matching clapping rhythm and inside a few seconds it appears that the entire audience has gotten behind their favorite anti-Company superstar. Pyro loses himself inside a sea of thoughts as the fans continue to rally behind him, and sensing this The Hardcore Headbanger charges at him with hostile intent – ready to swing his cane and crack it across The Rebel Ninja’s forehead. The Canadian Wolf snaps back to reality before any harm can be done to him, and it takes only a swift motion from him to avoid the potentially dangerous early cane shot. After ducking down, Pyro snatches the kendo stick from Sycho Sam’s hands and proceeds to snap it in half across his own knee. Flashing a determined look as he throws both halves of the cane out of the ring, Pyro shouts out loud and provokes his adversary to come at him – this time without a weapon to swing. Falling for The Rebel Ninja’s trap, Sam charges again – this time about to swing his right arm – but the agile Pyro sidesteps and slips in both arms underneath Sammy’s armpits and locks his hands behind Sam’s neck. Rendered helpless, the Hardcore Headbanger squirms and tries to move out of the full nelson hold but before he can even make a realistic attempt of escaping Pyro’s clutches, the Canadian Wolf proceeds to bridge his back – and releases Sam mid-arch, throwing him down on the mat neck-first. The execution of the release Dragon Suplex means that Pyro has made the first successful offensive move of a potentially violent match-up.

“The ball is in Pyro’s court now – all he needs to do now is keep the momentum going and he’ll score a pinfall over Sam in no time!”

“Sam isn’t the Company’s top enforcer for nothing! Even when he lost the tag title match he was still able to do his original task, and that was to take out Pyro!”

Pyro runs a hand over his hair and lets out a huge sigh of relief, as if a huge load had been taken off his shoulders just by getting an advantage early on. He still has a long way to go, and brushes aside his wayward thoughts once more as he approaches the recumbent Sam. Grabbing him by the collar of his shirt, Pyro hoists his opponent up to a vertical base only to have him spring back to life and react by spitting in the Canadian’s face. The disgusting saliva manages to find its way into Chris Pyro’s eyes, temporarily blinding him and forcing him to take a few steps back as The Hardcore Headbanger slides out of the ring. He opens his eyes to see Sam across the ring from him, taking out a steel chair from underneath the squared circle and immediately feels a surge of adrenaline, prompting him to act spontaneously. He makes a dash towards Sam, when the veteran brawler was just about to bring the chair – and slides feet first at him, hitting the chair that was aligned horizontally across Sam’s face. The chair is hence thrusted straight into the Sychotic One’s forehead, with Sammy unable to avoid impact due to him not having a strong enough grip on either the head or tail of the chair. Pyro now exits the ring himself and approaches his nemesis, but Sam is able to shake off the effects of the chair shot – this being one of several hundred shots that he has taken in his career – and hastily moves towards the guard railings as The Rebel Ninja follows him.

“Everything Sam has tried to do so far in this match has backfired on him, not the start he was hoping for I’d bet!”

“Pyro’s just been lucky so far, there’s nothing else to it.”

The Hardcore Headbanger snatches a Pepsi can from a kid in the front row, causing him to be showered with all sorts of insults from the fans. But Sam couldn’t care less; he is far too much focused on the mission at hand to even consider what anyone in the audience might think of his desperate actions. Pyro approaches Sammy but before the Canadian can do anything, The King of Destruction turns around while thrusting his free arm towards Pyro. Sammy’s enclosed fist catches the side of The Canadian Wolf’s jaw and sends the recipient about two steps backwards. The Pakistani Metalhead reaches forward and grabs a handful of his opponent’s hair – a symbolic gesture in a sense, indicating that now Sam has the upper hand as he bends his Japanese trained opponent’s head backwards and drives the Pepsi can into his forehead several times. After striking the same area repeatedly for fifteen seconds or so and allowing the contents of the can to fly all over the place, Sammy starts to grind it instead in an attempt to truly decimate Pyro’s skin. This lasts for less than a second though as another idea pops up in Sycho Sam’s Headbanging brain. He proceeds to force The Canadian Wolf into the ring, sliding him in just a couple feet away from the nearest turnbuckle. Without hesitation then, The Hardcore Headbanger begins to climb the turnbuckle, taking many in the arena by surprise – indeed, the veteran brawler was not known to take to the top turnbuckle often, especially not so early on in a match-up. It becomes quite evident that this is the first time in a long, long while that Sammy has actually been on the top rope and he takes more time than necessary to perfect his balance before propelling himself. The King of Destruction somersaults forward with the intention of landing with his back across The Rebel Ninja’s body but once again the Japanese trained Pyro shows off his presence of mind and ability to react in the spur of the moment when he rolls towards the turnbuckles – thus declaring Sam’s senton bomb attempt an utter failure. Wasting too much time on the top rope had cost Sam but things get even more dangerous for him when Chris pounces upon his supine opponent. After wrapping his arms around the head and left arm of Sam, it becomes apparent to everyone in the arena that The Company’s enforcer was no doubt going to have a hard time escaping from this deadly hold. The Rebel Ninja puts all his mental and physical strength behind choking the veteran brawler out and the fans rally behind their favorite anti-Company superstar.

“Anaconda Vise! We all know how ground moves like these are Sam’s weakness; this could be all over for Sam!”

“And for his career with The Company! God forbid these ninja idiots continue to keep that guy hostage!”
