I wrote this for another efed I'm in a few months ago or so. It's my proudest match. Will you please give it a read and tell me what you thought? Like, rate it? Thanks!
Hart: “Well ladies and gentlemen, we’re now getting ready for our International Title Match. Up next, for the first time ever in the WWX, we’re going to have a Fish Hook Deathmatch. As we speak, the ropes are being taken down, and they will be replaced with fishing line, with hundreds of fish hooks on them.”
Lane: “You know, every time these two, Steven PS and John Hall, get in the ring with each other, they give us something we’ve never seen before.”
Hart: “That’s right. First time they met, at Armada, we saw them in an absolutely brutal Barbed Wire Cage Match in King of the Death, which was unlike any other match in the tournament. Last month, at Deadlock, we saw the two of them give us an amazing technical masterpiece that will not soon be forgotten. Move for move, counter for counter, they gave us a Match of the Year candidate. And now, just when you think they’ve given us everything, brawling, technical master pieces, even ultraviolence, they are going to up the ante even more, in a Fish Hook Deathmatch.”
Lane: “I have a feeling they are going to give us everything and a little bit more, Mike. This is going to be unreal. Look at the ring!”
[The camera pans around the ring as the ring crew sets it up. The ropes and turnbuckles are gone, and they are carefully putting up fishing line through the holes on the ring posts; the fishing lines have hundreds of fish hooks lined on them.]
Lane: “…Wow.”
Hart: “Let’s go backstage, where the challenger is standing by with Chris Sanders.”
[The camera cuts backstage, where Chris Sanders is standing at the Interview Station with John Hall, Valerie Knot and Sucio. Hall is wearing his normal wrestling shorts, a black tank top that says in plain bold white text “ATHEIST”, an off-white woolen beanie, and has blue latex surgical gloves over his taped fists and wrists. Valerie Knot is standing in a revealing black tank top, black short shorts and gold sandals, with gold chains hanging from her neck. Sucio is the most extravagant in his dress – he is wearing a fishing hat, a fishing vest over a white shirt, blue jeans, boots, and he is holding a tackle box and fishing pole with a pipe in his mouth.]
Sanders: “I’m standing here with members of the X-Army, most notably at this time the challenger to the International Title, John Hall. Now John, I –“
Sucio interrupts him: “Woah, Chris. Listen. John Hall has a match coming up next, do you really think he has to worry about answering your stupid questions? He has much more important matters to worry about. But you know, I’m free for now. Why don’t you ask me a question? Why don’t you ask Sucio a question?”
Sanders: “I, I wasn’t prepared to ask you any questions, Sucio.”
Sucio: “Wasn’t prepared? Why don’t you do your job, Chris. John Hall has a job to do tonight, and he’s going to destroy Steven PS out there. John Hall is bringing back the International Championship tonight where it belongs, Chris. The X-Army is bringing this god forsaken place back to glory. It starts tonight; it starts right now, when John Hall reclaims the International Championship. And while Johnathan does his job, I’m going to do mine. I’m gonna go out there, and I’m gonna try to hook me a nice fat one.”
[Sucio holds his fishing pole out in front of the camera. He grabs onto the hook at the end and examines it.]
Sucio: “So Chris, why don’t you just step out of the way, and let us do our jobs, if you don’t know how to do yours.”
[The three of them walk off camera, Valerie Knot being the last as she caresses Sanders’s chin and mockingly laughs at him.]
Sanders: “Back to, uh, you guys.”
Hart: “Well ladies and gentlemen, we’re just about ready to go here.”
[Suddenly, the lights in the arena go out. The hollow guitars of “Sons of Belial” by The Faceless begin to echo overhead.]
Lane: “I love this entrance.”
[As the main guitars hit, the lights flash on in sync with the music and go back to darkness. As the main drums hit, the lights come back on and bright streams of lights emit from the stage and dance in figure eights. John Hall, Valerie Knot and Sucio appear through the curtain. Sucio is holding his tackle box and fishing pole with a pipe in his mouth, and Hall is wearing blue latex surgical gloves and holds an orange wiffle ball bat wrapped in fishing line with fish hooks on it, and a few fake fish with hooks on them.]
Bonn: “The following contest is a FISH HOOK DEATHMATCH for the International Championship! Introducing first, the challenger. Representing the X-Army, and accompanied to the ring by Sucio and Valerie Knot. Weighing 220 pounds, and hailing from Chicago, Illinois, this is, JOHN HALL!”
“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
[Despite the loud chorus of boos, there are a few cheers and claps of appreciation. The trio walks around the ring together, examining the ring. The ropes of fishing line are almost invisible, but the hundreds of dangling fish hooks look very intimidating. Sucio pulls up a chair in the corner of the ringside area near the time keeper and sets his tackle box and fishing pole next to it, and takes a seat. Valerie Knot leans against the barricade next to him. Hall throws the bat under the “ropes” and rolls carefully under them, and then sits in the middle on his knees, staring into the entrance way with the bat resting in his right hand.]
Hart: “He said when he is in the middle of the ring, he will feel at home.”
Lane: “This is scary. This is just scary.”
[“Push It” by Static X hits the speakers and the fans explode! Lights and spotlights fly all over the arena and Steven PS bursts through the curtain with the International Championship on his shoulder.]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!”
[He walks to the ring with a little hesitation, examining it from afar. John Hall sits in the middle of the ring, bat in hand, staring at him as Steven approaches.]
Bonn: “And his opponent! Weighing 225 pounds, and hailing from Omaha, Nebraska. He is the WWX International Champion, STEVEN PS!”
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!”
[Steven makes it to the ring, gently lays a finger on the bottom “rope”, and eyeing Sucio. Hall has not moved; he follows him with his eyes. Steven PS goes to roll in the ring, and Hall stands. He brings his leg off the apron and walks to the side of the ring, slapping a few hands but keeping a close eye on his opponent. Hall makes sure SPS sees him as he puts the bat down in the corner of the ring. Steven PS is hesitant to get in the ring, but he does. He hands the belt to the referee, who holds it up for the crowd to see.]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!”
Hart: “This is going to be out of this world. The pain that these men are about to endure will be out of this world…”
***DING DING DING***
[Steven PS and John Hall stare at each other from across the ring. They slowly approach each other and get within arm’s reach. Hall extends his arm and attempts to initiate a Greco Roman knuckle lock, and SPS carefully accepts. They interlock their fingers and Hall somersaults and spins on his bottom, kicking SPS’s left leg down and jumping on top of him. He grabs the leg and bends it over, locking it in an ankle lock. SPS gets to his foot while Hall keeps the ankle, and he turns around in a position perfect for an enzugiri. Instead, SPS grabs Hall’s right arm and twists it, as Hall still holds SPS’s right leg.]
Hart: “Hall has the leg and Steven has the arm!”
[Hall tries to trip SPS but he cranks on the arm. Hall spins SPS’s leg around and grabs a waist lock behind him. SPS falls to his hands and knees and Hall keeps the waist lock, crouching over him. SPS positions his feet behind Hall’s ankles and pushes him to his back using his feet for leverage. Simultaneously, Steven PS front handsprings to his feet and turns around and Hall kips up to his feet. We get a standoff and the entire crowd applauds.]
Hart: “And we’re back to square one.”
Lane: “Who wouldda thunk; wrestling in a ring surrounded by fish hooks!”
[Hall and SPS both give each other some distance before circling around each other. Hall gets on one knee to stalk SPS as they circle, and he hits a single leg takedown. Instinctively, SPS goes to his stomach. Hall spins to a front headlock and picks him up to his feet. SPS attempts to get his legs, but Hall sprawls backwards, also putting more pressure around his head. Again, Hall spins behind him with a waist lock. He picks him off his feet and tries to push him into the fishing line ropes!]
Hart: “Oh no! Steven PS getting dangerously close to those hooks!”
[He picks him up again and walks him closer and closer to the ropes, but Steven grounds himself and elbows Hall in the head behind him. He quickly spins out of his grasp and attempts to push him into the ropes but Hall stops himself just in time. SPS goes to the middle of the ring and Hall charges him with a kick to the midsection, bending him over. Hall stomps on the back of his head! SPS stands up and holds the back of his head in pain, and Hall chops him across the chest!]
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
[Hall whips SPS into the ropes! Steven ducks and carefully slides under them to the outside!]
Hart: “SPS narrowly avoiding the ropes there.”
Lane: “It’s only a matter of time until someone tastes some fish hooks!”
[Steven PS walks up the aisle a few steps, holding the back of his head. He turns around and goes to walk back to the ring, BUT HALL RUNS AND DIVES THROUGH THE MIDDLE AND TOP ROPES AND HITS A SUICIDE DIVE!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Lane: “How the hell?!”
Hart: “John Hall diving through those fish hook ropes! He’s fearless!”
Lane: “He’s out of his damn mind!”
[Sucio yells at Hall from the other side of the ringside area, and as SPS tries to get to his feet, Hall walks over to Sucio and Valerie Knot. Knot hands him the wiffle ball bat with fish hooks on it!]
Hart: “Oh my god, Valerie Knot handing Hall that bat!”
[Hall calmly walks over to Steven PS with the bat, and as SPS tries to get to his feet, Hall stalks him, telling him to get up. As Steven gets to his feet, Hall pulls the bat over the top of his head and goes to strike but Steven kicks him in the midsection! He drops the bat and SPS picks it up!]
Lane: “The champ has the bat!”
[SPS swings the bat wildly and Hall ducks! Hall hits a superkick right under the jaw!]
“OOOOOH!”
Hart: “John Hall now has the upper hand once again.”
[Instead of picking up the bat, Hall takes SPS’s head and drags him to the ring apron. He takes a fish hook on the bottom rope and begins to dig it into his forehead! SPS screams in pain as Hall grates his forehead with the razor sharp hook!]
“AWWWWWWHHHHHHHHH!”
Hart: “And John Hall now digging that fish hook into his forehead!”
Lane: “Here we go, Mike. Here. We. Go.”
[He lets go of the hook and SPS checks his forehead and pants while leaning over on the ring apron. Hall goes behind him and picks up the bat, AND BURIES IT RIGHT INTO STEVEN PS’S BACK!]
“AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Hart: “OH MY GOD!”
Lane: “THE BAT IS STICKING IN HIS…!”
[The wiffle ball bat is stuck in Steven PS’s back! He walks with his back arched and his fists clenched, as the orange bat hangs from his back and his side. The crowd is going insane!]
“HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!”
[Steven bends over the steel steps and tries to take a hook out that is buried into his side. His hand uncontrollably shakes and he cannot take it out. Hall comes from behind him, adjusts his surgical gloves and begins to slide the hooks out of Steven PS’s back.]
Hart: “Look at this, Hall is actually helping Steven PS take the hooks out.”
Lane: “Well of course, he can’t wrestle him with that thing hanging on his back!”
Hart: “This is so sadistic.”
[Hall spots the hook in his side and Steven PS is still screaming, bent over the steel steps. Hall yanks out the hook, taking a small chunk of skin with it!]
“OOOOOOH!”
[Steven PS scream bloody murder as his side begins to spew blood.]
Lane: “I’m speechless.”
Hart: “How can either of these men take so much punishment?”
[Hall climbs to the apron and SPS is still bent over the ring steps. He jumps off and kicks the back of his head on the way down!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “Hall is dominating the early going of this match, Gary. This is his element. This is what he’s comfortable with! He’s sick!”
Lane: “He’s a champion. He’ll do anything to win that title back, Mike. Do you know what it’s like to be that hungry?”
Hart: “I think he’s insane.”
Lane: “Well that too.”
[Steven PS tries to get to his feet and Hall helps him. Steven PS chops him hard across the chest!]
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
Hart: “Steven PS with some desperation, there.”
[Hall chops him across the chest and spins around, hitting a hard rolling elbow!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Lane: “God!”
Hart: “Steven PS is really in trouble here in the early going.”
“STEVEN PS!” *CLAP, CLAP, CLAP CLAP CLAP*
Lane: “Listen to these idiots.”
[Hall picks up Steven PS and tells the fans to get out of the way. The fans in the area all leave their chairs immediately and Hall throws SPS over the guardrail, into a sea of chairs!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!”
Hart: “And the action moves into the crowd!”
[As SPS tries to get to his feet, Hall climbs to the ring apron. However when he carefully turns around, Steven PS throws a chair at his face!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[Hall falls down to the floor and SPS reaches over the guardrail to pick him up. He then suplexes him over onto the chairs behind him and the concrete floor!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “This is getting messy! These men are taking the action to the crowd. They could go anywhere they want, there’s no way the ring can contain these men, whether or not it’s surrounded by fish hooks!”
[The camera then focuses on Sucio, who is still sitting stoic in his chair, smoking his pipe.]
Lane: “Sucio there, still calm as ever; smokes his pipe, tobacco products only.”
[Steven PS gets to his feet first and slaps hands with a few fans. He then picks up a chair and folds it, and then holds it up for the crowd to cheer. He then brings it down across Hall’s back!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!”
[Again and again, Steven PS assaults John Hall with the chair!]
“SPS! SPS! SPS!”
Hart: “Steven PS starting to get this match under his control!”
[SPS roars out like a Viking and the crowd responds. As Hall begins to crawl away, Steven PS violently rips Hall’s tank top off his back and begins to choke him with it!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!”
[He lets go and picks up Hall, dragging him through the crowd and to the stairs. He bangs his head on the stair railing as they begin to walk up the aisle!]
Hart: “Look at these guys! They’re going up the stairs!”
[Steven PS drags him further up the stairs. Hall punches him in the stomach but it does not faze him. SPS weaves Hall’s arms through the bars and pulls his arms, putting his foot against the bar in an attempt to pull Hall’s shoulders out of their socket!]
Lane: “Someone stop this! These guys are gonna kill each other before the night is over!”
Hart: “I think that was the point!”
Lane: “Where’s Sucio?!”
[He lets go of Hall and he grabs his shoulders in pain. SPS tells fans to get out of the way as he walks down seat aisle S, stalking Hall as he gets to his feet.]
Hart: “Where the hell is he going?”
[SPS runs towards Hall and GOES FOR THE POSTSCRIPT BUT HALL PUSHES HIM OFF AND STEVEN PS GOES FLYING DOWN THE STAIRS!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “Holy crap!”
Lane: “Oh my god that’s gotta hurt. He was hurled like ten feet down those steps!”
[Hall grabs Steven PS by the hair and drags him up the stairs. He brings him to the hallway leading to the concession area and fans in line for snacks and walking to and from the bathroom all scream as John Hall throws Steven PS out into the hallway!]
Hart: “The fans are really getting an up close and personal look at this match!”
[Security pushes the fans back to give the two room. Hall grabs SPS and throws him into the snack counter but SPS reverses it and kicks him in the stomach. He then throws Hall into the snack stand but Hall reverses it. SPS goes into the stand but in one leap, jumps to the counter! MOONSAULT OFF THE SNACK COUNTER!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[The small area amplifies the roars of the crowd surrounding. SPS picks up Hall and gives him a hard chop right across the chest!]
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
[He then turns Hall to face the ceiling and hits an inverted sitout DDT on the concrete!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “Oh god! Hall’s head just smacking off the concrete floor!”
Lane: “First pin of the match!”
Hart: “Can he pin him out there?”
“ONE!”
“TWO!”
“THR – OOOOH!”
Lane: “Apparently!”
Hart: “Well I mean why the hell not.”
Lane: “The ring is surrounded by fish hooks for Chris’s sake; I think the rule book is pretty much out the window.”
[SPS grabs his bottom after landing on it on the cold concrete, and gets to his feet. Hall is rolling over to his stomach, and SPS kicks him in the head. He picks him up and throws him towards the bathroom, where Hall smacks against the wall. He then grabs his head and whips him stomach first into the water fountain on the wall!]
Hart: “This is out of control.”
“THIS IS AWESOME!” *Clap, clap, clap clap clap*
Lane: “You’re wrong according to those fans. Apparently this is awesome.”
[SPS grabs Hall by the hair and drags him to the entrance to the arena and tries to throw him down the stairs but Hall fights back with fists. Hall suddenly falls to his butt and pulls SPS by the tights over top of him, sending SPS down the stairs!]
“OOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “And they’re back in the arena but Steven PS being introduced in possibly the worst way.”
[As SPS stops rolling, he lays on his back trying to catch his breath and hold his back. Up the stairs still in the little hallway, Hall walks back, gets a running start, AND JUMPS DOWN THE STAIRS, HITTING A SENTON ONTO STEVEN PS!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “HOLY CRAP!”
Lane: “He must have jumped ten or fifteen steps down onto Steven PS!”
Hart: “He’s out of his goddamn mind!”
[John Hall gets up immediately from the momentum and starts walking down the stairs, but in serious pain holding his lower back. He goes to a knee, putting his head on the armrest of a chair, wincing in pain. He fights out of it and stands up, continuing to walk back to the ring.]
Lane: “Fight it, Hall! Fight the pain!”
Hart: “Every vertebrae in his spine should be shattered right now! And you’re telling him to fight through it?!”
Lane: “That’s his thing! I think he likes pain!”
[Steven PS stands up and begins to walk down the steps, quickly catching up to John Hall.]
Hart: “You know I think that may have been a mistake. He took more out of himself than he did his opponent!”
[Steven PS catches up to John Hall on the bottom floor. He grabs him by the back of the head and throws him over the barricade, causing Hall to fall flat on his back with a loud thud. SPS grabs onto the barricade and jumps over, hitting a double stomp on the way down! He slaps hands with a fan and takes a breath leaning against the guardrail.]
Hart: “Finally both men are back to the ringside area.”
[SPS drags Hall by the hair and pulls him to his feet. He bangs his head against the steel ring post!
The camera cuts to Sucio sitting at the opposite corner of the ring from the two, sitting calmly with his leg crossed over his knee, smoking his pipe.
SPS bangs Hall’s head against the ring apron and keeps his head close to the fish hook ropes. He then takes a fish hook and digs it into his forehead! He slides it through his forehead and Hall is stuck to the ropes with the fish hook hanging from his forehead!]
“AWHHHHHHHH!”
Hart: “He’s! He’s! Oh god!”
Lane: “Stuck to the ropes!”
[Steven PS wastes little time to get the fish hook wiffle ball bat laying on the floor. HE SWINGS IT VIOLENTLY AT HALL’S ARM!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “AH!”
[The bat does not stick to his arm, but falls on the ground. Hall carefully extracts the fish hook from his forehead and slides under the ropes into the ring. He lays, staring at the ceiling, as blood trickles down his forehead to his ears, crusting in his hair. He holds his arm, which has a trickle of blood running down it as well.]
Lane: “Fight through the pain, Hall! Come on!”
[Steven PS takes the bat and rolls it inside the ring, and he carefully slides himself under the ropes. As Hall pants on the mat, SPS goes for a cover!
ONE…
TW – Hall shoves him off just after one, impatiently.
SPS stands and picks up the bat! He looks into the crowd and holds the bat high, asking if the fans want to see him use it. The fans explode! But behind his back, Sucio looks under the ring and finds a 2x4 wrapped in fishing line with fish hooks on it!]
Hart: “Uh, Steven, turn around!”
Lane: “Oh my goodness! Is that a 2x4?!”
[Sucio gives the 2x4 to Hall and he quickly stands, getting ready to swing for the fences. As Steven PS turns around, HALL SWINGS THE 2X4 WITH FISH HOOKS RIGHT INTO STEVEN PS’S STOMACH!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “Oh for Christ’s sake!”
[The 2x4 falls to the mat and SPS goes to a knee. Hall takes the opportunity to hook his head in a front facelock, ready for a suplex. While hooking his head, he takes the wiffle ball bat and WHACKS HIM ACROSS THE BACK W ITH IT!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “GOOD GRIEF!”
[Hall rips the bat off his back, revealing it to be severely punctured and slightly bleeding. He hooks the arm and HITS A BRAINBUSTER ONTO THE 2X4!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[COVER!
ONE…
TWO…
THR – NO! STEVEN PS KICKS OUT!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!”
Hart: “And SPS kicks out!”
Lane (in a mocking tone): “Accept the pain, Steven! Come on, Steven! You can do it Steven!”
[Hall calmly gets to his feet and rips the fishing line off the wiffle ball bat. He takes a hook and digs it into Steven’s arm! Steven gets to a knee and tries to fight him off but to no avail; Hall lets go and leaves the hook hanging in his arm!]
Hart: “GOD this is like a Saw movie!”
[HALL BITES THE FISH HOOK! HE GNAWS ON STEVEN PS’S ARM AND PULLS THE HOOK OUT WITH HIS TEETH! STEVEN PS FALLS TO THE MAT AND ROLLS AROUND HOLDING HIS BLEEDING ARM, AS HALL LOOKS MENACINGLY INTO THE CROWD WITH THE BLOODY HOOK IN HIS MOUTH!]
“YOU SICK F*CK! YOU SICK F*CK! YOU SICK F*CK!”
[HALL GOES FOR A COVER, SHOVING HIS FOREARM ACROSS SPS’S FACE!
ONE…
NO! SPS hurriedly shoves him off.]
Lane: “I’ve never seen anything even remotely close to this. You know, when announcers say that they’re usually lying, but I honestly have never seen anything like this before in my life.”
Hart: “You and me, and everyone watching this, Gary.”
Lane: “Only from John Hall.”
Hart: “Steven PS is the bravest man I know for going into this match. I can’t believe what we’re seeing.”
[Hall grabs SPS by the hair and picks him up to his feet. A hard forearm to the face and Hall is looking for an irish whip! He whips him but SPS reverses it and hits a HARD neckbreaker! Both men lay down on the mat to recoup! A slow clap ensues, building louder and faster.]
Hart: “What is Sucio doing?”
[Sucio picks up his fishing pole that he already put a worm on the end of. He casts it into the ring, just missing Steven PS’s head.]
Lane: “I love this guy.”
Hart: “He is trying to catch Steven PS. What the hell?”
Lane: “Anything goes!”
Hart: “These X-Army guys are out of their goddamn minds.”
[Sucio reels in his worm, pulling it up and over the ropes. SPS begins to get to his feet, unaware of Sucio’s actions. He picks up Hall slowly, but Hall responds with hard elbows to the midsection.]
Hart: “Both men getting back to their feet; Hall trying to get the upper hand.”
[Steven PS elbows Hall in the back of the head. Before Hall can respond, SPS picks him up and WHIPS HIM HARD INTO THE ROPES, SENDING HALL THROUGH THE FISH HOOKS, SNAPPING THE LINE AND LANDING ON HIS BACK ON THE FLOOR!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “HALL WENT THROUGH THE ROPES!”
Lane: “Come on Hall! Fight through it!”
“HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!”
[Hall tries to untangle himself from the fishing line, but he is extremely careful of all the fish hooks around his body. The referee jumps down to the floor with scissors in his hand, and he begins to cut him free of the fishing line. Hall screams out in pain, but it comes out more of a scream of frustration. His back and arms are severely scratched and bleeding, and several fish hooks and still hanging from his back.]
Hart: “Look at the fish hooks in his back!”
Lane: “Look at his back! Steven PS you coward!”
[Steven PS in the ring is on one knee, taking a breather. The camera cuts to focus on a fish hook that is deeply stuck in his lower back. Hall is focused on taking it out, but his hand shakes uncontrollably. The referee, wearing heavy black gloves, notices the hook and tries to pull it out. Hall screams as the hook does not budge.]
Hart: “This is grotesque. Look at that hook, it’s almost all the way in his back!”
Lane: “This is so dangerous.”
[Sucio walks over to Hall and tells the referee (who has freed him of the fishing line but not the hook) to go away. He bends over Hall’s back and grabs onto the loop of the hook on the end, and carefully slides it out. However, the hook will not come all the way out. Hall pushes Sucio’s hand away and begins to crawl back into the ring.]
Hart: “Are you telling me that he’s gonna continue this match with a hook STUCK in his back?”
Lane: “It looks like it.”
“STEVEN PS!” *Clap, clap, clap clap clap*
[With a look of satisfaction on his face, Steven PS grabs Hall by the head and chin and brings him to his feet. Hall looks weak at this point. SPS DIGS HIS FINGERS INTO THE HOOK IN HALL’S BACK!]
“AWWWWWHHHHHHHHH!”
[Hall screams out in pain AND STEVEN PS BEGINS TO BITE THE HOOK!]
Hart: “NOW STEVEN PS IS BITING JOHN HALL!”
[He cannot bite the hook out of his back; it’s still stuck in snugly. His face covered in blood, SPS spits onto the mat.]
Hart: “You’re probably noticing how the other three sides of the ropes are still up. When they set up the ring, they made each side independent of each other, so if one side snaps, the others won’t go down.”
Lane: “Great, so that means we’re gonna have to sit here until all four sides are crashed through?”
Hart: “I hope not…”
[Steven PS grabs Hall and goes for a backdrop suplex, but Hall flips back and lands on his feet! Hall goes for a backdrop suplex on his own, but they’re too close to the ropes AND HALL SUPLEXES HIM THROUGH THE ROPES! SPS VIOLENTLY CRAHSES TO THE APRON AND TO THE FLOOR!]
“AWWWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Hart: “STEVEN PS TASTES THE ROPES!”
Lane: “HOLY CRAP!”
[SPS grabs his back in serious pain after snapping it on the ring apron. The referee jumps down and starts to cut the fishing line away from SPS’s scarred body. Inside the ring, Hall tries to dig out the hook inside his back again.]
Hart: “This is unbelievable…”
Lane: “This isn’t wrestling!”
Hart: “They didn’t call this Pay-Per-View ‘Bloodshed’ for nothing!”
[Steven PS rolls over and makes sure his body is free of fish hooks – which it is. Despite the fact, his body is scratched and bleeding in several places. The camera zooms in and focuses in on a long scratch horizontal on his back, glimmering in the light with bright red blood, with a piece of fishing line stuck on it. The camera cuts back to Hall in the ring who screams his lungs out as he finally extracts the hook from his back. There is a small but deep hole in his back, gushing blood like a faucet down, soaking the waistline of his wrestling shorts in crimson blood.
Hall rolls to the apron and to the floor. Steven PS is just about to his feet, using the guardrail to help him to his feet.]
Hart: “These two can barely stand.”
[Steven PS sees Hall approaching and kicks him in the midsection. He pulls him by the hair and bangs his head on the announcers table!]
Lane: “Woah, keep this out of our area!”
[Off to the side, Sucio has extracted a garbage can lid from under the ring. He reaches into his tackle box and picks out a box of fish hooks, and pours them into the lid, spreading them out.]
Hart: “What is Sucio doing?”
Lane: “Is that a garbage can lid?”
[Steven PS looks over at Sucio but does not go after him. Instead, he pushes Hall onto the apron and into the ring. Sucio pours another small box of fish hooks into the garbage can lid.]
Hart: “There’s gotta be a hundred fish hooks in that trash can lid.”
[Steven PS pulls himself into the ring. He stalks Hall as he slowly turns over to get to his feet. The fans grow!]
Hart: “Could be time for a Shining Apprentice! We haven’t seen that in a while!”
Lane: “Hall get out of the way! Roll out of the ring! Do something!”
[Sucio picks up the lid and walks over to the ring behind Steven PS!]
Lane: “Wait, Sucio!”
[Sucio tugs on SPS’s boot. He turns around AND SUCIO THROWS THE TRASH CAN LID FILLED WITH FISH HOOKS AT HIS FACE!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “TO HIS FACE! HE COULD HAVE BLINDED HIM!”
[Steven PS flings his arms wildly and covers his face as he screams. Fish hooks scatter all over the ring mat! As SPS is temporary blinded, Hall gets to his feet AND PUTS HIM ONTO HIS SHOULDERS!]
Lane: “HARRIMAN DRIVER!”
[HARRIMAN DRIVER ONTO THE FISH HOOKS!!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
Lane: “WOOHOOO! NEW CHAMPION!”
[ONE…
TWO…
THR – NO! STEVEN PS GETS THE SHOULDER UP!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!”
Hart: “I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!”
Lane: “WHAAAAAAAT?!”
[Hall sits up and he can’t believe it! He pushes his hair back and widens his eyes, shocked that SPS kicked out of his Harriman Driver – onto a pile of fish hooks no less. He falls down to his back and is laid out, gasping for air. Next to him, Steven PS does the same.]
“THIS IS AWESOME!” *Clap, clap, clap clap clap*
[Hall rolls to his side and to the floor. He picks up some fishing line with fish hooks still on it and gathers it all in a pile. He notices SPS starting to stir, grabbing his bleeding head. Hall puts down the clump of fishing line and hooks and pulls SPS by the head over to the apron. He pulls him out of the ring to the floor and violently whips him into the steel guardrail!]
“OOOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “God I can’t believe this isn’t over yet.”
Lane: “It’s not over until Hall reclaims what is rightfully his!”
[Hall takes the clump of fishing line and hooks and begins to wrap it around his foot!]
Hart: “What in God’s name is he doing?”
[Hall stomps on the ground with his fish hook boot and points at Steven PS who is leaning against the guardrail, sitting down. He tells the fans to get out of the way, and they oblige. HALL CHARGES AND HITS A FACE WASH WITH HIS BOOT COVERED IN FISH HOOK, INTO THE GUARDRAIL!! HALL’S FOOT GETS CAUGHT BETWEEN THE POSTS IN THE GUARDRAIL AND SPS SLOWLY TURNS OVER ONTO THE FLOOR!]
“AWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHH!”
Hart: “HALL JUST KICKED SPS’S FACE OFF!”
Lane: “This is too much. John just end it!”
Hart: “Never count out Steven PS!”
Lane: “Yeah but, I mean come on.”
[Hall drags a limp SPS to the ring and throws him on the apron. He rolls him over the fish hooks on the mat and crawls up, going for a pin!
ONE…
TWO…
THR – NO! STEVEN PS GETS THE SHOULDER UP!]
Hart: “Unbelievable…”
[Hall, looking impatient under his forest of blood crusted hair, bangs on the mat and rolls towards the center of the ring. He slowly gets to his feet and stops on one knee, catching his breath. The crowd splits into two chants – mostly children and women for SPS and mostly the men for John Hall.]
“STEVEN PS!”
“LET’S GO JOHN HALL!”
“STEVEN PS!”
“LET’S GO JOHN HALL!”
Hart: “This crowd is on their feet!”
[Hall goes to pick up Steven PS. He lets go of him as SPS is just dead weight. He looks down at him, SPS clinging to his boots.]
Hall: “Get up!”
[Steven PS lets go of his boots and tries to get up on his own, and Hall gives his signature crucifix pose. He pulls SPS by the hair to hasten the process of standing up, and he goes to put him on his shoulders! STEVEN PS SLIDES DOWN HIS BACK AND PUSHES HIM, AND HALL TRIPS AND FALLS ONTO THE SECOND ROPE!]
“AWWWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHH!”
[HIS TROSO AND UNDERARMS ARE PIERCED BY FISH HOOKS!]
Hart: “BY GOD AGAIN! HALL GOES INTO THE FISH HOOK ROPES!”
Lane: “Thank God they didn’t break! Hall would have been flung face first into the damn floor!”
[Hall carefully pulls himself off the ropes, pulling a hook out from under his arm near his armpit. He grunts and gets up from one knee. He turns around AND STEVEN PS HITS THE POSTSCRIPT OUT OF NOWHERE ONTO THE FISH HOOKS ON THE MAT!!]
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!”
Hart: “POSTSCRIPTTTTTT!!!!”
Lane: “ONTO THE FISH HOOKS!”
[SPS GOES FOR THE COVER AND THE FANS COUNT ALONG!]
“ONE!”
“TWO!”
“THR – OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[HALL GETS THE SHOULDER UP!]
Hart: “NOBODY KICKS OUT OF THE POSTSCRIPT!”
Lane: “You said never count of Steven PS! Well now you can say with certainty to never count out John Hall!”
Hart: “I’m speechless! Everyone in this building is shocked!”
[Steven PS cannot believe his eyes. He rolls out of the ring and begins to look under the ropes for something. He cannot find what he wants under the side next to the announcer’s table, so he goes to the side away from the hard camera, and pulls out a table!]
Hart: “Really? A table?”
Lane: “A table!”
[SPS drags the table back to the side where the ropes are gone (on the announce table side) and he puts the table down. He stares down Sucio and Valerie Knot, just a few feet away. They stare back and allow him to do his business; SPS sets up the table next to the apron. As he finishes, John Hall walks over to him while inside the ring and sweeps a few fish hooks at his face with his foot!]
“OOOOOOOOOH!”
Hart: “And again, fish hooks just tossed into Steven PS’s FACE!”
[Steven PS goes to a knee and holds his face, getting himself together. He comes back up and Hall drags him by the hair back inside the ring. SPS TRIPS THE LEG AND FLIPS OVER HIM FOR A ROLL UP!]
“ONE!”
“TWO!”
“THR – OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[HALL GETS OUT OF IT!]
Lane: “PHEW!”
Hart: “So many close calls!”
[Steven PS gets to his feet and begins to push the hundreds of fish hooks on the mat with his feet off the apron and onto the table! Soon, the middle of the table has a very large, shiny pile of metal fish hooks on it!]
Hart: “What can I say at this point? Ya know, I’m completely speechless.”
Lane: “I’ll talk for you. That table right in front of us has about a hundred fish hooks piled onto it!”
Hart: “Evil.”
[John Hall gets to his feet and forearms Steven PS! SPS forearms him back! THEY TRADE HARD FOREARMS BACK AND FORTH!]
“YAAAYYYY!”
“BOOOOO!”
“YAAAAAYYYYY!”
“BOOOOOOOOO!”
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY!”
“BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”
“YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!”
“BO – YAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!”
“YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!”
[JOHN HALL LOW BLOWS STEVEN PS!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[HALL HOOKS THE ARMS… UNKNOWN DRIVER OFF THE APRON THROUGH THE FISH HOOKS AND THROUGH THE TABLE TO THE FLOOR!!!!!!!!]
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
[THE REFEREE JUMPS TO THE FLOOR AS HALL PUTS AN ARM OVER STEVEN PS FOR THE PIN!]
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!!!!!
“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!”
***DING DING DING***
[“Sons of Belial” by The Faceless hits as Sucio grabs the International Title before the referee can, shoving him into the guardrail. Sucio walks over to John Hall, grabs him by the arm and pulls him off of a lifeless Steven PS. Hall falls to his back and Valerie Knot goes to a knee, coddling his head. Sucio pulls his arm and brings him to his feet, but he collapses onto the announce table.]
Bonn: “Here is your winner, and NEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW WWX INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION, JOOOOOOOOHN HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL!”
[A mixed reaction of boos and applause of appreciation ensues as Sucio puts the International Championship belt over Hall’s shoulder. Valerie Knot and Sucio hold both of Hall’s arms up in victory.]
Hart: “I can’t believe it.”
Lane: “I told you! Hall is the NEW International Champion!”
Hart: “I am still speechless.”
Lane: “Get over it!”
Hart: “What a hell of a rollercoaster this match has been. I don’t think we’ll ever see anything like that ever again. Good God, this match was a train wreck.”
Lane: “He did it! He beat Steven PS! The X-Army is the future of the WWX!”
Hart: “We need some help for Steven PS…”
Lane: “We need help for both of them, they should be dead! But Hall defeated the pain, and he is the new WWX International Champion!”
[Sucio and Valerie Knot carry a lifeless John Hall up the ramp under his arms. When they get to the curtain, they turn around to face the crowd. Hall’s bloody face and body looks ravaged, but Sucio and Knot hold his arms up in victory and cross them to make an X. They disappear backstage.]
Hart: “Someone get out here for Steven PS. I mean it.”
[Medical personnel rush out to the ring with a stretcher. They go to Steven PS and try to talk to him as the music stops and the crowd is hushed.]
Hart: “He was just driven on his head through a table covered in fish hooks to the floor. That, along with everything else that happened in this match, was what it took to put down Steven PS.”
Lane: “Oh, save it! John Hall has finally defeated Steven PS!”
Hart: “Yes, I’ll give it to him. But the bigger story is right in front of us…”
[Steven PS is put on the stretcher and raised as the fans begin to applaud. The paramedics wheel him around the ring and to the ramp, but as they start to go up the ramp, Steven stops them. He slowly steps off the stretcher and begins to walk up the ramp without assistance. Every fan begins to clap.]
Hart: “That’s a true man right there. One of the best WWX has ever seen.”
[Steven PS makes his way up the ramp with the doctors behind him. He turns around and looks into the crowd, and he gives the devil horns.]
“THANK YOU STEVEN!” *Clap, clap, clap clap clap*
[Steven PS disappears through the curtain.]

I need character sheets and some context (for the feud. The story of the match shouldn't need to be explained)

Re: Review a Match I Wrote?
John Hall is Unknown from EWA. Steven PS is a generic babyface midcarder pretty much, who has been there for a while and is known for being able to take a good beating.Big Red Machine wrote:I need character sheets and some context (for the feud.

The feud was really bland, actually. It started when they met in the semifinals of a deathmatch tournament. They faced in a barbed wire cage match with a scaffold at the top of the cage and for the finish, Hall hit the Harriman Driver off the top through several tables, but Steven PS landed on top of Hall and got the pin. The next month, Hall was the International Champion and wanted to get back at SPS because he felt he was robbed in his last match. At the PPV after their first encounter, they had a technical masterpiece, sharply contrasting their violent match from the previous month. Steven PS defeated Hall cleanly and won the title.
This caused Hall to go crazy. He wanted to punish Steven PS for robbing him from the tournament and though he lost again, he still believed he could beat him some way. Sucio, the leader of a stable Hall is a part of (The X-Army) told him the one-up Hall had over SPS was that he could withstand more pain. In a promo, he stuck fish hooks in his head and told him to fight the pain. In the weeks leading up to the next PPV, Hall cut promos where he did sick rituals of sticking fish hooks in himself to discipline himself and to take the pain. He challenged Steven PS to another rematch at the next PPV in a fish hook deathmatch.
Viola.
