Final Frontier

[FGA Office]

[FGA Office]

[Cue the opening guitar rift for the Muse's "House of the Rising Sun". The Arena lights change to a golden hue. Through those curtains steps none other than Leon Corella...]

#THERE IS....A HOUSE.... IN NEW ORLEANS....#

[....Tonight, he sports a light charcoal colored Armani suit with a slate blue dress shirt, tan silk tie, black leather Gucci dress shoes, his favorite red and white diamond studded Platinum Rolex, a pair of gold framed black sunshades, and the UWL Patriot Championship on his shoulder. Leon stands there on the ramp for a moment, gazing out at the crowd who give his arrival a bit of a mixed response.]

#TTTHHHEEEEYYYYY CCCCCAAAAALLLLLL THA RRRRIIIISSSSSSIIIINNNNN' SSSSSUUUUUNNN!!!!#

[Leon strolls down the isle, little in the way of fan fair as he makes his way to the ring. Upon arrival, he hops onto the apron and walks the length of it, looking briefly to the crowd before throwing one leg through the ropes, dipping down and walking out onto the canvas. He reaches through the ropes, requesting a microphone from a ring attendant, which he gets and then turns to face the crowd.]

Corella: Judging by the reactions of this Newark crowd, I'd say some of you know who I am. The more casual wrestling fans on the other hand may be thinking, "Who is this monkey in a suit and what is he doing in my ring?"

[He tilts his head back slightly, having lived this very moment and spoken that one line countless times in his career when addressing a new crowd in a new promotion.]

The name of the man who stands in the middle of this ring, front and center for the Final Frontier is Leon Corella.

[Lifting the belt from his shoulder, Leon holds it high over his head as he circles the ring.]

...and I am the UWL Patriot Champion! I won this championship at UWL's official public debut, Wrestlefest, against a man some of you might know- Pat Gordon Jr.

*FACE NAME DROP POP!*



I would later defend it at a TSWF event in the Hammerstein Ballroom against one of wrestling's top athletes of this generation, Vic Morrison. He was out to hurt me as badly as he physically could in one of the more challenging matches of my 19 year long wrestling career, but in the end, I prevailed.

[The crowd cheers. He gives his head a sad shake as he turns away from the camera, looking on at the crowd.]

TSWF's dead now, and I performed the ceremonial cremation, recorded and aired on the internet for all to see as I shared my bitter lamentation of broken dreams and shattered hopes.

[Leon walks the length of the canvas, his hand lightly gliding over the top rope as he does so.]

...as if TSWF's doors closing weren't bad enough, at Championship Weekend shortly thereafter, I'm called out to the ring by Kevin Hill. He utilizes a technicality and basically declares the Patriot Championship, that I earned to be null and void. That's ok though, I still have the real belt in my possession.

[The crowd cheers. A wry smirk crosses his face as he pans his gaze towards the camera.]

Check the back of the centerpiece, Mr. Hill. You'll find "Wildcat Replica" stamped on it. This belt right here...

[Leon holds the belt out towards the camera.]

...This is the real Championship you had commissioned by Reggie Parks himself. The Prop Belt is very similar in every detail, but It's gold plated, not actual gold. The gemstones are colored glass. I suppose you could use it for symbolic value, but I have the real deal and like I said elsewhere, you want to take it from me, Kevin, lace up some boots and take it from me, otherwise, go to hell.

[The crowd cheers. Turning back towards crowd, He places that championship back in it's secure spot on his shoulder and continues on.]

As for my loss at UWL's Championship Weekend? That was orchestrated. Kevin Hill doesn't want me as part of his precious UWL because I will actually speak the truth. I call it like I see it and when I see bullshit, I don't keep quiet like the rest of the submissive herd.

[There's a furrow in his brow, his jaw setting as tension visibly tightens his features.]

Mr. Hill doesn't want honesty, he wants control. I wasn't given a choice about coming out to see him in that ring. I wasn't given a choice about keeping this belt as a trophy. No, Kevin Hill forced me to come out there under duress, reminding me of that old clause that the Card is Subject to Change. I could be easily substituted with someone else to face Ryan Kidd if I didn't want to play ball...

[He stops front and center in the middle of the ring.]

...That's perfectly fine with me, however. Proving people wrong is something I aspire to do, whether it's about business practices, perceptions, or anything else. I don't play by the rules. I am a cut above the norm and as such, I'm brave enough to go against the grain. So what if you don't accept me.

[Leon offers a non-chalant shrug of his shoulders.]

I never asked for acceptance. In fact, I've never asked for a damn thing in my career. I took it by any means possible, just like this belt on my shoulder and the International Championship had the match continued past it's very abrupt conclusion. With my foot on the rope, the referee counted me out one, two, three and thus the match was ended in controversy. Now that I've spoken as much as I care to on the character of Kevin Hill, let's move on to the sole benefactor of the crime, Ryan Kidd.

[The crowd cheers at the mention of Kidd's name. The briefest of pauses as he looks back into the camera once more.]

Ryan, I know you're sitting in the back, watching on, so I address this towards you directly.

[He points at the camera briefly.]

I'm a Harvard Business school graduate. I have a head for numbers and a natural knack for knowing market trends. I was one of the few people out there who was smart enough to prepare for the Recession that we are currently in and thus why I still have the fortune I have.

[Leon smirks, leaning on the ropes to get a better read on the camera.]

...but while I'm so great at business, it's not my driving passion. It's boring as hell to me. I derive no sense of satisfaction from it at all. Professional wrestling is exciting, ever changing, and much more cutt throat with the competition. That being said, I've never been known to make the smartest decisions in this sport, as you are right now. You, Kidd, are a very prudent young man. Me, If I were in your shoes, would not have taken the smart, easy way out as you have.

[His head tilts ever so slightly to the right.]

I'd have grabbed that Referee by his collar and demanded the match continue and if it didn't, I'd work a deal out with the promoter of your company. I'd give you an exhibition match with the UWL International Championship on the line, Kevin Hill's word be damned. Then we'd have a real competition on neutral soil away from the rule of UWL and decide for ourselves who the real champion is.

[The crowd cheers. A shrug of his shoulders.]

And if the winner gets stripped, like I did with the Patriot Title, well then _fuck_ UWL and Kevin Hill. If you were to beat me in that instance, Ryan, I'd have a new belt made for you to carry and if I won, all Kevin would get is a Wildcat Replication, just as he did with this title belt I hold on my shoulder.

[Pushing back from the ropes, Leon turns back to the crowd.]

...because I am a _wrestler_ and I believe in the spirit of competition. I will never, ever take the easy road and if that means I don't get what I want, so be it. Who wants a championship given to them? I'd rather have a belt I earned, like the Patriot Championship, than a belt that was given, like Ryan Kidd's International Championship. So let Kidd continue being smart and hide behind a technicality. If that's the kind of champion he wants to be, then fuck him too!

[Leon tosses the microphone to the canvas and we hear those blaring chords start up again from Muse's "HotRS". He heads for the ropes, slips through them onto the apron and hops down to the floor. From there, Leon walks straight towards the back, holding the Patriot Championship high for all to see.]

Kevin Clement: Well that's one way to start off a show.

Evan Grayson: You think? But I like this Leon Corella. I love his fire. Just look at the way he came out, shooting straight from the hip and telling it like it is. Feelings be damned! Talk about a man with a grudge....

Clement: He's certainly something else and wil be someone to keep our eyes on heading into 2013. But that's in the future. Let's talk about tonight! Welcome fans to this latest presentation by Frontier Grappling Arts. We're coming to you from the Fleisher Athletic Center in Newark, New Jersey for FINAL FRONTIER! That's right, it's the last show of the year and we're looking to go out with a bang. In our opening contest, it's a "Mixed Bag" 8-Man Tag!

Grayson: Eight of FGA's newest stars were chosen into two teams of four at random. But Jake Winchester, Akrista O'Hare and Alyssa Casteele got the short end of the stick as Jacob Demore looks to be the odd man out on their team.

Clement: Thanks to that malicious attack by Malcolm Drake, let's not forget that! Jack "The Villain" Owyns may have talked himself into the beating of a lifetime as he takes on "The God Among Men" Alistair Mangold!

Grayson: Owyns has done no such thing. Mangold stuck his nose where it didn't belong. What a shock there. And if anyone is teaching any lessons tonight, it's going to be Owyns.

Clement: In one of our two main events, Chandler Scott goes one on one with arch rival, Ben Hanson!

Grayson: "No Heart Hanson", as Chandler effectionately calls him, will be exposed yet again tonight. Chandler has his number. And he'll have it once again tonight.

Clement: And in our second of two main events, A.J. Fairchild defends his FGA Heavyweight Championship against Ryan Kidd!

Grayson: People like you think that A.J.'s newfound arrogance has gotten the best of him. But A.J. will show once again why he is the FGA Champion when he beats Kidd 2 falls to 0. You heard it here first. Ryan Kidd chokes again. I can see it on the headlines now!

Clement: We've got so much for you here tonight, including the introduction of a NEW championship.

Grayson: Oooooooooooh!

Clement: You don't want to miss that. But right now, let's go to pre-recorded comments from the always.... interesting, Malcolm Drake. Take a look.....

[FGA Office]

Earlier Today
The scene cuts the the backstage area, specifically the darkened back exit to the rear parking lot. It is there that Malcolm Drake sits propping open the heavy steel door with his back and blowing clouds of cigarette smoke out into the dark winter night's air. Drake is standing in his ring gear but with an unadorned black hoodie on over his torso.

Drake: 2012 was the year of Frontier Grappling Arts, and as 2013 looms FGA is poised to be BIGGER and BETTER than ever. Hmmm. Good. Like the saying goes, the BIGGER THEY ARE... The harder they fall.

Drake sniffs and wipes sweat from his face with the sleeve of his hoodie.

Drake: 2013 will NOT be the year of FGA. It will be the year of Malcolm... Drake, and my Murder of horrible crows. The crows circle now. Dark wings blacking out the sun. Soon the darkness will fall and soon it will envelope everything and everyone it touches. Mark my words... I am a man of them.

As Drake smirks a shadowy figure moves into the door frame, but his or her features are obscured except for a rough silhouette. The figure stays just out of sight, obscured in shadow.

Drake: In 2013, the Murder descends. WE descend. Memento Mori.

With that Drake reaches out and extinguishes his cigarette on the lense of the camera.

"Mixed Bag" 8-Man Tag
Chris Q, Malcolm Drake, Diego Alvarez, Tony Edison
VS
Jake Winchester, Akrista O'Hare, Alyssa Casteele, Jacob Demore

“The Earths Rotation Around the Sun” blares throughout the building as Chris Q, Jacob Demore, Diego Alvarez and then Tony Edison make their way down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Cheers for Edison and a barrage of boos for everyone else.

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. And it is a "Mixed Bag" 8-Man Tag Team Match. And it will be fought under Scramble Rules. The team that scores for first fall will be declared the winners. Introducing first, coming in at a combined weight of 861 pounds..... they are the team of CHRIS Q, MALCOLM DRAKE, DIEGO ALVAREZ AND TONY EDISON!

Clement: This team is extremely frontloaded. You have Chris Q, a man that has had a wide variety of opponents thrown at him and he's beaten them all. You have Malcolm Drake who is as crazy as he is dangerous in that ring. But then you have Diego Alvarez, the unknown on his team. No one knows what he brings to the table. And rounding them out is Tony Edison, "The Man That Gravity Forgot." Tony put up one hell of a fight against Jake Winchester just two weeks ago. If these four are even remotely on the same page, it could spell trouble for their opponents.

Grayson: I absolutely love this team. Chris Q has ran through every obstacle that's been placed in his way. Malcolm Drake could very well be just the tip of the iceberg if all this "murder of crows" business is true. And Edison can go. It really doesn't even matter if Diego is reliable or not. These other three guys have this in the bag.

"Kashmir" plays as Jake Winchester, Akrista O'Hare and Alyssa Casteele make their way to the ring to cheers from the crowd.

Cruz: And their opponents.... making their way to the ring at a combined weight of 554 pounds.... they are the team of JAKE WINCHESTER, AKRISTA O'HARE, and the UWL Junior Heavyweight Champion, ALYSSA CASTEELE!

Clement: And the fan favorites have made their way into the ring. Akrista O'Hare is certainly no stranger to Chris Q. Alyssa Casteele has UWL championship gold. And Jake Winchester is the elder statesmen in this match, which definitely gives his team a leg up.

Grayson: Speaking of legs, Jacob Demore is nowhere to be found. Which isn't a surprise to anyone, given what Malcolm Drake did to him just a couple of weeks ago. Clearly the strength and the aggression lays in favor of Chris Q's squad. Jake, Akrista and Alyssa are a man down. I don't want to say they have no shot but........ they have no shot.

Clement: Well that remains to be seen as this match is about to get underway right now....

The bell sounds as Jake Winchester and Chris Q start things off. After circling the ring, the two lock up. After jockeying for position, Q shoves Jake, sending him stumbling back towards the ropes. The crowd boos. After looking around at the crowd, Jake circles the ring. He heads back over to Chris Q before locking up. After jockeying for position, Jake shoves Q, sends him stumbling back towards the ropes. The crowd cheers. But Q doesn't seem at all impressed. After circling around the ring, he inches back over towards Jake. They motion for a collar & elbow tie up, but Q nails him with a kick to the midsection to boos from the crowd. He follows up with a right hand, knocking Jake down. As Jake gets back up, Q grabs him, runs over towards the corner and slams his head into the top turnbuckle. After turning Jake around, Q delivers a series of shoulder thrusts to the midsection. He then grabs a hold of Jake and whips him into the opposite corner. Q charges into the corner. But Jake leans back and nails him with a boot to the face, sending him stumbling back. While Q is momentarily dazed, Jake runs from out of the corner and knocks him down with a clothesline. The crowd cheers. Q gets back up, but Jake knocks him down with a running clothesline. The crowd cheers. He then picks up Q and whips him into the ropes. When Q comes back, Jake throws him down with a side belly to belly suplex to cheers from the crowd. He makes the cover.

Jake kicks out.

Clement: Tony Edison taking advantage of these Scramble Rules early on.

Grayson: That's right. This isn't a traditional tag team match. You don't have to tag your partner in. As soon as one of your teammates leaves the ring, you can step in and become the legal man. But Edison clearly took advantage of those loose Scramble Rules. Maybe this guy is fitting in with his teammates better than I thought.

Clement: I shudder at the thought of Chris Q and Malcolm Drake's antics rubbing off on a guy like Edison.

As Q makes his way out onto the apron, Edison picks up Jake and unleashes a series of knife-edge chops that echo throughout the building. He then takes Jake and whips him into the ropes. When Jake comes back, Edison bends over to set up a back body drop. But Jake counters with a high knee lift that knocks him down to cheers from the crowd. He then makes his way into the corner and tags in Akrista O'Hare. The crowd cheers.

Clement: And here comes the Suicide Girl! She's been itching to get in that ring!

Grayson: Yeah, she's been itching to get her clock cleaned by Chris Q again....

Akrista picks up Edison and wrings his arm. She then delivers another arm wringer before trying to yank the arm from out of its socket. Edison can be seen wincing in pain. The ref asks Edison if he wants to give up. But Edison refuses to quit. So Akrista wrings his arm once again. Edison then rolls forward, leans back, kips up and counters with an arm wringer of his own. The crowd cheers. Akrista responds by running into the corner, running up to the top turnbuckle, jumping off and taking Edison down with a flying arm drag. The crowd cheers. Edison gets back up, but Akrista knocks him down with a clothesline. Edison gets back up, but Akrista knocks him down with another clothesline. As Edison gets back up, Akrista runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she goes for another clothesline. But Edison ducks, sending her running into the ropes. When Akrista comes back, Edison goes for a back body drop. But Akrista slips down, grabs him from behind and takes him down with a hanging neckbreaker. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover.

Edison kicks out.

After Akrista takes him down with a russian leg sweep, she steps through the ropes and begins to climb the turnbuckles. But once she reaches the top, Edison quickly rolls out of the way, gets up to his feet and tags in Malcolm Drake.

Clement: Oh here we go....

Grayson: You can bet that Malcolm Drake has been waiting impatiently to get his hands on, what did he call her, a pink haired punkette?

Clement: Something to that effect.

The crowd boos as soon as Drake gets in the ring. Akrista, now seeing that her moment has passed to hit a big move, hops down from the top rope. The two then circle the ring as they size each other up. They then go to lock up. After jockeying for position, Malcolm uses his strength advantage to move her into the corner. The ref quickly scurries over and tells both of them to break it up by the count of five.

Ref: 1...................2...................3.................4............

Both wrestlers reluctantly let go. Drake places his hands in the air to surprisingly make a clean break. But it was all for show as he quickly gives Akrista a poke to the eyes. The crowd boos.

Clement: Should've known.

Grayson: Never trust a guy that looks like he could snap your neck, I always say.

The ref scolds Drake, but Drake pays him no mind. He then takes Akrista, places her in a side headlock and rakes her eyes along the top rope, sending Akrista stumbling directly into the opposing teams corner. After turning Akrista around, Malcolm unleashes a series of knee strikes to the midsection. Afterwards, he steps back and chokes Akrista with both hands. The ref gives him until the count of five to break the hold.

1......................2....................3.....................4.................5.

Malcolm immediately breas the holds. The ref scolds Drake for not breaking the hold in time. But while the ref's back is turned, Diego Alvarez holds Akrista from behind while Chris Q gets in the ring and unleashes a series of left hands to the midsection. The crowd boos while the two blatantly double team Akrista behind the ref's back.

Clement: Come on ref, turn around!

Grayson: Whaaaaaaaaat? He's simply doing his job and giving Malcolm a talking to.

Clement: He's clearly being distracted by Drake and you know it.

Grayson: Eh, oh well.

Q then quickly steps back out onto the apron as the ref turns around. Malcolm then heads back into the corner and nails Akrista with a forearm to the face, knocking her down to all fours. As Akrista tries to crawl away, Malcolm smirks before nailing her with a punt kick to the ribs, knocking Akrista over onto her back. The crowd boos as Malcolm takes his time to toy with her. He then reaches down, grabs her by her hair, drags her towards the center of the ring and delivers a stomp to the face. The crowd boos. He then goes back over, picks up Akrista and whips her into the ropes. When Akrista comes back, Malcolm nails her with a punch to the midsection, doubling her over. While Akrista is hurt, Malcolm runs into the ropes. When he comes back, he goes for a high knee lift. But Akrista catches his leg just in time. The crowd cheers as Malcolm is helpless, hopping up and down on one leg. Once she's had enough of seeing him squirm, Akrisa brings him down with a dragonscrew leg whip. The crowd cheers. Malcom gets back up, but Akrista reaches over, lifts up his right leg and throws him back down with another dragonscrew to cheers from the crowd. While Malcolm is down, Akrista goes over and tags in Alyssa Casteele.

Grayson: Great, now her comes the second Powerpuff Girl!

Alyssa gets in, picks up Malcolm and delivers an inverted atomic drop to cheers from the crowd. While Malcolm is doubled over, Alyssa unleashes a series of stiff kicks to the leg and right legs before connecting with a basement dropkick to the right leg, knocking Malcolm down to one knee. While Malcolm is down, Alyssa runs into the ropes. As her back connects with the ropes, Chris Q nails her in the back of the head to boos from the crowd. But the boos turn to cheers once Alyssa turns around and nails him with a right hand to the face. Enraged, Chris Q gets in the ring, but the ref holds him back. While the ref is holding him back, she waves all of her teammates in. Jake and Akrista then get back in the ring and help Alyssa in hammering away with clubbing shots to the head, back and neck of Malcolm to cheers from the crowd.

Grayson: What is this!? Ref, turn around!

Clement: Turnabout is fair play!

Grayson: Oh hush!

As an irate Chris Q and Diego Sanchez head back to the apron, Jake and Akrista head back to the outside as well.

Back in the ring, Alyssa picks up Malcolm and whips him into the ropes. When Malcolm comes back, Alyssa knocks him down with a spinning heel kick. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover.

Malcolm kicks out.

Alyssa picks him up and whips him into the ropes. When Malcolm comes back, Alyssa goes for a crescent kick. Malcolm catches her foot, but Alyssa counters with an enzuguiri that knocks him down. The crowd cheers. She then steps through the ropes and waits impatiently on the apron for Malcolm to get up. Once Malcolm finally gets up and turns around, Alyssa springboards onto the top rope. But before she can even dive off, Diego reaches off and yanks her leg out, sending Alyssa falling off the top rope and landing face-first on the floor. The crowd boos.

Clement: Oh come on Diego!

Grayson: Did you hear how hard she landed on the floor?

But the boos soon turn to cheers as Jake Winchester steps through the ropes, charges across the ring and knocks Diego off the apron with a running shoulderblock. Diego flies off the apron and crashes back-first against the barricade. When Jake turns around, Malcolm nails him with a series of right hands that send him stumbling across the ring. He then takes Jake and whips him into the ropes. When Jake comes back, Malcolm side steps, grabs him by the back of the neck, runs and throws him over the top rope and to the floor. The crowd boos once they hear Jake land hard on the floor. Malcolm then turns and raises his arms to the crowd, taunting them. The crowd responds on cue with the boos. But the boos won't last for long. As soon as Malcolm turns around, Akrista springboards onto the top turnbuckle, leaps off and knocks him down with a missile dropkick. The crowd cheers as she makes the cover.

Edison drags Akrista off of Malcolm.

Clement: Edison once again coming to the aid of his teammates.

Grayson: It's a tag team match. Why do you sound so shocked?

Clement: Because two of his teammates are Chris Q and Malcolm Drake.

Edison picks up Akrista, brings her into the corner and slams her head into the top turnbuckle. After unleashing a series of knife-edge chops, Edison whips Akrista into the opposite corner. Edison charges into the corner, but Akrista nails him with an elbow to the face. As Edison stumbles back, Akrista runs from out of the corner and takes him down with a tilt-a-whirl headscissors takeover, sending him stumbling through the ropes and to the floor. The crowd cheers. As Akrista turns around, Malcolm gets up and runs over towards him. But Akrista ducks and dumps him over the top rope and to the floor with a fireman's carry takeover. While Malcolm and Edison are both down on the outside, Akrista waits for them to begin to move.

Grayson: Oh no.

Clement: It looks like the Gray Angel is about to take it to the air......

Once both men start to get up, Akrista runs into the ropes. When she comes back, Akrista charges forward, leaps forward and knocks both men with a suicide dive over the top rope. The crowd cheers.

Crowd: AKRISTA! AKRISTA! AKRISTA!

Clement: Akrista O'Hare with a huge Superman-like leap over the top rope and to the outside! And she gets two for the price of one!

While Akrista is trying to get up on the outside, Chris Q steps into the ring. He looks at Akrista, then at the ropes, then back to Akrista, then back to the ropes. He then nods with a sinister smile on his face.

Grayson: What in the...?

Clement: You've got to be kidding me. Chris Q about to DIVE to the outside!?

The crowd gets excited over what's to come. Chris Q then runs into the ropes. When he comes back, he charges forward. But instead of performing a high flying dive to the outside.............. he baseball slide to the outside, grabs Akrista by the hair and throws her down with a mat slam. The crowd boos as the back of Akrista's head smacks against the floor.

Grayson: Ha ha!

Crowd: CHRIS Q SUCKS! CHRIS Q SUCKS! CHRIS Q SUCKS!

Clement: Chris Q denying the fans what they want once again!

Not even the least bit faze by the crowd, Q picks up Akrista and rolls her back into the ring. He then rolls himself back in before making the cover.

After making his way across the ring, he grabs her by the hair and yanks her back up to her feet before whipping her into the ropes. When Akrista comes back, Q goes for a clothesline. But Akrista ducks and runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she goes for a cross body block. Q catches her in mid air.

Grayson: Well what do you expect when he's getting triple teamed in there? But that comes with the territory when you're the best man of the bunch. Everyone's going after you. Everyone's giving you their best shot. But they still can't put him away because he's that much better than the rest of them.

Jake picks up Q and whips him into the corner. Once he's ready, Jake runs across the ring, jumps and goes for a stinger splash.

Malcolm picks up Jake and whips him into the corner. He then charges into the corner and connects with a roaring elbow. The thud from the impact can be heard throughout the building. Once Malcolm backs away, he charges back into the corner and connects with a running yakuza kick. The crowd boos as Jake falls out of the corner and lands face-first on the canvas. Malcolm immediately drops down to his knees, turns Jake over and makes the cover.

Jake gets his foot on the bottom rope to cheers from the crowd. Malcolm tugs at his hair in frustration.

Clement: Malcolm Drake clearly showing some signs of frustration.

Grayson: I know that Jake Winchester is older than dirt. I know that it should be relatively easily to beat a man who had to use a walker to get to the ring. But Drake has to stay focused.

Malcolm then picks up Jake and whips him into the ropes. When Jake comes back, he knocks down Malcolm with a falling clothesline to cheers from the crowd. With both men down, the ref starts his count.

Ref: 1.....................2......................3........................4........................

Both men begin to move. Malcolm turns over and begins to claw his way over towards his corner. Meanwhile, Jake pushes himself up on all fours and tries to crawl back towards his corner. In one corner, Akrista has her arm stretched out while Alyssa repeatedly slaps on the top turnbuckle pad. In the other corner, Chris Q has his hand out while Diego & Tony are hopping up and down on the apron.

Clement: Both of these men are almost there! who is got to get the tag!?

Malcolm reaches up and tags Chris Q back in to boos from the crowd. Q steps back in and storms across the ring. But he stops dead in his tracks as Jake leaps up and tags Akrista back in.

The crowd cheers as Akrista slingshots herself into the ring. Q smiles and motions for her to bring it on. She gladly obliges as she charges straight towards Q. But Q takes advantage of her enthusiasm and knocks her down with a shoulderblock to boos from the crowd. Q reaches down, picks up Akrista, hoists her up with a double leg pick up and then rams her back-first into the corner. The crowd boos. Q then steps back, only to choke Akrsta with all his might using one hand. The ref goes over and gives him until the count of five.

Ref: 1.....................2......................3.....................4.................

Q reluctantly lets go. He then grabs Akrista and whips her into the opposite corner. As Q charges into the corner, Akrista leans back and tries to nail him with a boot to the face. But Q knew it was coming, so he grabs her foot. He then drags her out of the corner to boos from the crowd, taunting her along the way. But the boos soon turn to cheers as Akrista connects with an enzuguiri, sending Q stumbling down onto the middle rope. The crowd cheers once they see Q in perfect position.

Grayson: Oh boy.

Clement: 6-1-7 time!

Akrista quickly gets up and runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she charges forward, swings through the ropes and blasts him in the face with the 6-1-7. The crowd cheers. As Q slowly gets up and turns around, Akrista springboards onto the top rope, leaps off and takes him down with a flying hurricanranna, sending Q rolling to the outside. As Q tries to get up on the outside, Akrista runs into the ropes. When she comes back, she connects with another suicide dive over the top rope, knocking down Q to cheers from the crowd. Once they see their partners down on the outside, Jake Winchester & Malcolm Drake step through the ropes, race to the center of the ring and exchange punches to cheers from the crowd. The crowd cheers even louder once Jake gains the upperhand, rocking Malcolm with punch after punch. He then kicks Malcolm in the midsection before whipping him into the ropes. When Malcolm comes back, Jake bends over to set up a back body drop. But Malcolm stops, kicks Jake in the face (standing him upright), and then takes him down with an ace cutter. The crowd boos. But the boos turn to cheers as Alyssa comes back in the ring. Once Malcolm turns around, Alyssa nails Malcolm with a crescent kick, sending Malcolm stumbling through the ropes and to the outside. The crowd cheers as Jacob Demore can be seen hobbling down the aisle. Malcolm sees this and is in shock.

Grayson: Well well if it isn't Tiny Tim?

Clement: I didn't think Jacob Demore would even make it.

Grayson: I highly doubt his teams thought he'd make it, either.

Demore points at Malcolm as Malcolm snaps out of his shocked state and begins to mock Demore. But the fun and games are over as Akrista shoves Malcolm from behind, sending him stumbling into a right hand from Demore that knocks him down. The crowd cheers.

Clement: Demore with a right hand!

Back in the ring, Alyssa knocks Diego down with the American Waste. She then drags him into position, steps through the ropes, climbs up to the top turnbuckle, flips off and connects with the Cherry Bomb. The crowd cheers. Edison then gets in the ring and puts the boots to Alyssa. He picks her up, brings her across the ring and then plants her with a DDT. After slingshotting back out onto the apron, Edison springboards onto the top turnbuckle, leaps off and connects with the End Game. The crowd cheers.

After Edison gets up and turns around, Akrista slides back in, kicks him in the midsection, hops up and locks in the Holy Trinity. The crowd cheers as Edison can be her groaning in pain.

Grayson: She's about to choke him out, Kevin!

But just as he's about to tap out, Chris Q gets in and dives on Akrista, delivering a jumping knee drop to the face. The crowd boos as the move breaks the hold. Q then picks up Akrista, grabs her, runs towards the corner and then throws her shoulder-first into the ring post. The thud from the impact can be heard throughout the building. The crowd boos as Akrista slips through the ropes and falls to the outside. Back in the ring, Edison turns around and goes to high five Chris Q for saving him. Q looks Edison up and down before kicking him in the midsection and hoisting him up onto his shoulder for The Compactor.

Clement: What in the world is Chris Q doing?

Grayson: Eh, Chris Q doesn't seem like the rah rah, sis-boom-bah type. I doubt he REALLY wanted to team with these guys, anyway.

But as soon as Q turns around, he sees Demore hobbling into the ring. Q smiles as he tosses Edison off his shoulders with little regard. Q then mocks Demore by limping his way over to him. He dares Demore to give him his best shot. And Demore goes, rocking Q with a series of hard forearm shots to the face. The crowd cheers.

Clement: Jacob Demore getting some payback on Malcolm Drake and Chris Q after the way that they mocked him.

Grayson: Oh no, they made fun of him! Jacob Demore better get out of that ring before his hurt leg becomes the least of his problems...

While Q is dazed, Demore hobbles into the ropes. When he comes back, he goes for a yakuza kick. But Q catches his foot, wags his index finger at Demore and then throws him down with a hard dragonscrew legwhip. The crowd boos as Demore can be heard groaning in pain.

Clement: I'm starting to think that this was a bad idea on Demore's part.

Grayson: See, this is what happens when you act before you think.

But Q never lets go of the leg. Q gets back up to his feet, pulls Demore back up to his feet, scoops him up across his shoulders and then plants him with The Compactor. The crowd boos as the ref starts the count.

“The Earths Rotation Around the Sun” blares throughout the building to boos from the crowd.

Cruz: Here are your winners, CHRIS Q, MALCOLM DRAKE, TONY EDISON AND DIEGO ALVAREZ!

The ref goes over to raise Chris Q's hand, but Q quickly rips his arm away from the ref. Once harsh glare from Q sends the ref retreating.

Clement: Chris Q once again walks away a winner....

Grayson: As he got the win for his team, let's not forget that.

Clement: Despite all of that, Jacob Demore, who has no reason even competing, may have very well cost his teammates the match tonight.

Grayson: Look, you've got Pat Gordon, Jr walking around here with a concussion. You have Jacob Demore trying to play hero on one leg. Hey, if these guys are dumb enough to get in the ring, then they get what they deserve. I have no sympathy for them.

Clement: Hey, just wait a second. What's going on here?

Akrista O'Hare slowly rolls back into the ring. She slowly pulls herself using the top rope. As she favors her shoulder, Malcolm Drake rolls back into the ring behind her. The sound causes Akrista to turn around. She sees Drake with evil intentions in his eyes. Just then, an unknown man hops over the barricade and slides into the ring behind her.

Clement: Wait just a minute. That's Dom Harter! Dominic Harter is in the ring with Malcolm Drake!

Grayson: Are they in cahoots?

Clement: I don't know. But I don't like the looks of this!

The two men begin to circle Akrista. They begin to circle her like two crows waiting to swoop in for the kill. But before anything can happen, Pat Gordon, Jr races down to the ring with a steel chair in hand.

Grayson: What in the.....?

As soon as PGJR slides in, he begins to swing the chair like a madman, sending both Drake and Harter retreating to the outside. The crowd cheers as Drake has words for PGJR. But PGJR drops the chair and motions for him to get back in the ring. Instead, Drake and Harter turn around and walk up the aisle to boos from the crowd. Back in the ring, PGJR heads back over to Akrista and shakes her hand. The two smile to cheers from the crowd.

Grayson: What in the world is going on here?

Clement: I have no idea either. Dominic Harter is apparently with Malcolm Drake. Pat Gordon, Jr just made the save. And what's the deal now with these two? Surely Justice Young will be having his hands full trying to get to the bottom of all this tonight......

[FGA Office]

We cut to the backstage area to see A.J. Fairchild standing alongside the FGA backstage interviewer Justice Young. A.J. is in his ring gear with his pink “Pissed Off” FGA T-shirt on, and his shinning FGA Heavyweight Championship belt over his shoulder.

Justice Young: “Here with me at this time is the FGA Heavyweight Champion, A.J. Fairchild. Now A.J. pl-”

A.J. puts up a hand to Justice cutting him off. A.J. calmly removes the microphone from Justice’s hand and brings it up to speak.

A.J. Fairchild: “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee.”

A.J. then gives Justice back the microphone before giving the interviewer a sarcastic smile, and before condescendingly patting Young on the head.

Justice Young: “Hallowing words A.J. but tonight, you head into Final Frontier, ready to defend your title for the first time against Ryan Kidd. A.J. how do you feel about heading into your match with Kidd?”

A.J. Fairchild: “Justice, the year two thousand and twelve will be forever known as the year that Kim and Kanye took over reality television, Nostradamus and the Mayans lost their credibility, and the year that A.J. Fairchild laid claim to the FGA throne. The year two thousand and thirteen will be known as the year that A.J. Fairchild revolutionized the sport of professional wresting, and you don’t need the Mayans to predict that, because everything that I’ve said since I came to FGA has been pure as gold. That’s why you all should consider it to be pure as gold when I say that tonight I will beat Ryan Kidd, not once, but twice. It will be after I end the FGA calendar year, that I begin next year’s campaign by weeding out all of the derelicts and the weak links that FGA has to offer, this list includes but is not limited to anyone in FGA who is not the FGA Heavyweight Champion. Which at last look, was me. Ryan, I hope you enjoyed your white Christmas in Long Beach, because tonight you’ll be leaving New Jersey empty handed, the only gift you’ll be receiving is the crushing feeling of both self-doubt, and failure. Because you can’t beat me, and you know you can’t. You can put on your charades and your porcelain mask to hide this crushing thought, but know that I will prove these truths to be self-evident in that very ring… Ryan, you can try using your strength, but I’ll still over power you. You can use your speed and quickness, but I’ll still be faster than you. You can try to outwit me, but I’ll still be several moves ahead of you. And you can also try to use your heart and soul, but you’ll quickly find out…Just how easy I can break it!”

With that A.J. walks away heading down the hall as Justice looks on....

[FGA Office]

Camera cuts to backstage where we see "The God Among Men" Alistair Mangold. The veteran looks more than ready for his match with Jack Owyns. As he cracks his knuckles, he sets his sights on the camera and with a face that shows more seriousness that we ever saw from him since his arrival to FGA, he begins to speak.

Mangold: "Good Ol' Al Mangold stops fucking around. I just wanna let everybody around here know that I want to turn the year 2013 to MY year. And since FGA is my playground, I'm gonna do that by taking over FGA. AJ Fairchild, Ryan Kidd... guys, you deserve my respect for being this succesfull in this early stages of your careers. But your time... your time will fully come just after I am finished with my bussiness here. Whoever begins the next year as FGA Heavyweight Champion is going to have a God-like obstacle in a way, and that's me. And all respect aside, I'll teach you a lesson and become the heavyweight champion for one last time. For seventh time. Be aware..."

Just like that, he walked away to turn his words into actions against Jack Owyns.

Jack "The Villain" Owyns vs. Alistair Mangold

"Undead" by Hollywood Undead hits the airwaves, and the crowd reacts in chorus of boos. The Villain emerges from out behind the black curtain with a wicked grin ear to ear. He waves off the crowd reaction and makes his was down the aisle, towards the ring.

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first..... from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 245 pounds.............JACK "THE VILLAIN" OWYNS!

Jack walks up the stairs and stops by the turnbuckle and scans the crowd before jumping over the top rope and coming to a sitting position in the corner. He rests his arms on the ropes, as the music fades out.

Clement: Jack Owyns has complained for weeks and weeks on end about not getting the respect that he deserves. He was tired of, in his mind, being passed over for the likes of Alistair Mangold. He felt that, in his mind, he deserved to be in the main event. Well, he got his main event wish and lost to Ryan Kidd! Now, he's getting ready to face Alistair Mangold who has promised to humble him here tonight.

Grayson: Well you can stop with all that "in his mind" stuff. He does deserve the main event. He was getting passed over for guys like Mangold. Sure, he lost to Kidd two weeks ago. It happens. But it won't happen tonight. Mangold has been running his mouth, too. Tonight, his mouth gets shut, courtesy of "The Villain."

Mangold let's the opening riff of "It's a Long Way To The Top If You Wanna Rock n Roll "play, then rushes on the ramp when the singing starts. He walks to the ring with his typical smile and right hand raised in the air.

Cruz: And his opponent, from Sacramento, California..... weighing in at 280 pounds..... ALISTAIR MANGOLD!

In the ring, he gets on the top turnbuckle and sings the "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock n' roll" part before he throws his golden cape to the crowd during the solo part. He gets down from the turnbuckle. The bell sounds as Owyns jumps Mangold from behind and nails him with a series of clubbing shots to the back of the head. The crowd boos.

Clement: And Owyns starts already with the cheap shots!

Grayson: Hey, if you're dumb enough to turn your back on your opponents, then you get what's coming to you.

Owyns turns Mangold around and unleashes a series of knee strikes to the midsection, followed by a series of elbow strikes to the head. He then takes Mangold and whips him into the opposite corner. Owyns follows him into the corner and connects with a clothesline. He then brings Mangold from out of the corner and whips him into the ropes. When Mangold comes back, Owyns goes for a clothesline. But Mangold ducks and runs into the ropes. When Mangold comes back, he knocks down Owyns with a jumping clothesline. The crowd cheers. Owyns gets back up, but Mangold knocks him back down with a lariat. The crowd cheers. Owyns gets back up, but Mangold kicks him in the midsection. Mangold then picks up Owyns and lifts him up high above his head. Mangold proceeds to walk around the ring, bench pressing Owyns to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: What a display of strength shown by Mangold. And Owyns is by no means a small man.

Mangold then turns, runs towards the ropes and throws down Owyns over the top rope and to the floor with a military press slam. The crowd cheers as Owyns is curled up in pain on the floor.

Grayson: he just threw Owyns to the outside!

Clement: As if it was effortless! The raw power of Mangold is something else!

After looking outside the ring to check on Owyns, the ref starts his count......

Ref: 1....................2....................3......................4...................5....................6.............

Not satisfied with how fast Owyns is moving, Mangold drops down and rolls to the outside. Once Owyns sees this, he gets up and proceeds to back away from Mangold. But Mangold isn't about to let up on Owyns. So once Owyns takes off, Mangold is right behind him. He then chases Owyns around the ring to cheers from the crowd. As soon as Owyns rolls back into the ring, Mangold rolls back into the ring as well. But Owyns catches him with an elbow drop to boos from the crowd.

Clement: Smart move there by the veteran Owyns.

Owyns gets back up and delivers another elbow drop. He then gets back up, measures up Mangold and delivers a third elbow drop. The crowd boos as Owyns turns him over and makes the cover.

Mangold kicks out.

Owyns picks up Mangold, brings him into the corner and slams his head into the top turnbuckle. He then turns Mangold around and unleashes a series of shoulder thrusts to the midsection. The crowd boos as Owyns steps back and chokes Mangold with his foot. The ref gives Owyns until the count of five.

Ref: 1...........................2......................3.....................4...............

Owyns lets go. He brings Mangold from out of the corner and whips him into the ropes. When Mangold comes back, Owyns nails him with a punch to the midsection that doubles him over. He then lifts up Mangold from the side and delivers a belly to back suplex. The crowd boos. Owyns gets back up, picks up Mangold, lifts him up and then plants him with a spike DDT. The crowd boos as Owyns makes the cover.

Mangold gets his shoulder up.

Clement: Owyns now quickly turning this match back into his favor after being thrown to the outside.

Grayson: I'm surprised he wasn't more hurt than he is.

Owyns picks up Mangold and whips him into the ropes. When Mangold comes back, Owyns bends over to set up a back body drop. But Mangold counters by stopping, stepping to the side and delivering a hard clubbing shot to the back. The shot sends Owyns down to his knees and arching his back in the pain. The crowd cheers. Mangold then picks up Owyns and whips him hard into the corner. As Owyns stumbles from out of the corner, Mangold grabs him and whips him hard into the opposite corner. As Owyns stumbles from out of the corner, Mangold scoops him up from the side and delivers a pendulum backbreaker. The crowd cheers as Mangold makes the cover.

Owyns gets his shoulder up.

Mangold picks up Owyns and whips him hard chest-first into the corner. As Owyns stumbles back, Mangold places him in a full nelson. The crowd cheers. The ref asks Owyns if he wants to submit. But Owyns doesn't give up. So Mangold cinches in the hold. The crowd continues to cheer as Owyns can be seen seething in pain. The ref asks him again if he wants to submit. But again, Owyns refuses to give up. So Mangold presses down, applying even more pressure. The crowd cheers as Owyns moans in pain. After checking on him, the ref asks him for a third time if he wants to submit. But again, Owyns refuses to quit. Frustrated, Mangold hoists him up and throws him down with a full nelson slam. The crowd cheers.

Clement: Mangold throwing down Owyns with reckless abandon! This is about to get ugly, Grayson.

Grayson: I don't like this....

He then steps over Owyns, bends down, grabs him by the throat with both hands and slowly brings him back up to his feet. After choking Owyns, Mangold knees him in the midsection, doubling him over. He then grabs a hold of Owyns from the side and delivers an overhead gutwrench throw. The crowd cheers as Owyns lands hard on the apron. He sits up holding his back in pain.

Mangold crouches down and waits impatiently for Owyns to get up. After Owyns pulls himself up using the ropes, he turns right around into a spear from Mangold. The crowd cheers. After getting back up, Mangold reaches down, grabs Owyns by the hair and begins to pull him back up. Owyns begins to nail Mangold with right and lefts to the midsection. While Mangold is momentarily stunned, Owyns runs into the ropes. When he comes back, Mangold hoists him up and throws him down with a one-handed spinebuster. The crowd cheers. He then reaches down, picks up Owyns, kicks him in the midsection, hoists him up onto his shoulders and then throws him down with Back to the Bottom. The crowd cheers as Mangold drops down and makes the cover.

"It's a Long Way To The Top If You Wanna Rock n Roll" hits to cheers from the crowd.

Cruz: Here is your winner, ALISTAIR MANGOLD!

Mangold heads into the corner, hoists himself up onto the middle rope and raises his arms in the air to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: Alistair Mangold gets the win. Owyns made it interesting early. But once Mangold gained control, there was nowhere to go but Back to the Bottom for Jack Owyns.

Grayson: Cute little pun there, Kevin. I don't care what happened out there, Jack Owyns is still a winner in my book...

Clement: And in your book, only.

[FGA Office]

Chandler Scott is standing by in front of a custom Harvard backdrop.

Chandler: What can I say that hasn't already been said? Ben, I don't like you, you don't like me. I don't respect you, you don't respect me. This match tonight, it isn't about titles. It isn't about accolades or any contenderships. It's about two men.... oops, I'm sorry, a man such as myself and a boy masquerading as a man settling their differences once and for all.

But no matter how many times the scene changes, what happens in the ring will always stay the same. I OWN YOU! I've bested you in this ring. I've beaten you for the FGA Heavyweight Championship. And tonight, I'm going to be the hell out of you simply because I can't stand you!

For too long, you've been placed on a pedestal higher than me. For too long, you've been held in higher regard than me. You've been passed off as this white knight when the truth is you couldn't be anything further from it. I mean, what type of white knight leaves the place that he love sooooooooooooo much because of money? Because of fame and adulation that he can get elsewhere? What kind of man does that? No Heart Hanson, that's who!

Tonight, I'm not here to fight for FGA's honor because the truth is, they don't deserve to have a man such as myself fight for them. They blew that opportunity when they routinely chose you over me. But tonight, there won't be a choice to be made. Tonight, I will leave no doubt as to who the greatest man in FGA history truly is. Tonight, Ben, I will send a message to everyone in FGA. It will say that Ben Hanson isn't, hasn't, and never will be on my level!

You enjoy your evening. Or should I say, what's left of it.

[FGA Office]

In January of 2013, Frontier Grappling Arts will be introducing a new championship. The FGA Pride Championship.

What is the Pride Championship?



The Pride Championship will be a secondary championship in FGA. While the FGA Heavyweight Championship is ultimately the top prize in all of FGA, the Pride Championship will be a new belt for the majority of the roster to wrestle over and establish themselves as one of the premiere wrestlers in all of FGA.

Why the name "Pride Championship"?

The belt was named after the "Pride Rules", which all Pride Championship matches will be fought under. The rules are as follows:

1) No closed fists to the head. Pokes, gouges, rakes and other illegal strikes to the eyes are also prohibited. Failure to follow these rules will result in a warning, then a rope break being taken away. However, slaps, chops and kicks to the head are all legal.

2) Grapplers are allowed three rope breaks per match. If all three rope breaks are used, then a pinfall or submission cannot be broken up by a rope break.

3) Grapplers, no matter how much animosity is between them, must shake hands at the start of the match or be charged a rope break.

4) Finally, all "Pride Championship" matches will be contested in Best 2 out of 3 Falls matches.

While FGA doesn't claim to be "reinventing the wheel" with this concept, they are looking to offer a more "pure" wrestling experience with these series of championship matches where outside interference, blatant cheating, foreign objects and weapons are not the norm.

The Pride Championship Tournament will begin on January 12, when 12 grapplers will wrestle in six First Round matches.

The tournament will continue on the double shot weekend of January 26 and 27. One semifinal match will take place on the 26th, while the other will take place on the 27th.

The finals of the tournament, which will be contested under "Pride Rules", will happen on February 23. It will be then when FGA will crown its first Pride Champion. And it will happen at the event appropriately titled....



To the 12 grapplers that have been selected, good luck.

And remember, take pride in your craft.

Show honor when you compete in the ring.

And be excellent in everything that you do.

[FGA Office]

The show cuts backstage to the sight of a closed door; there's no name plate on it, just a plain pine effect panel with the faint scratchings of some long forgotten scuffle barely visible. The camera slowly pans downwards, past the steel handle and further down towards the floor. The door opens slowly; the camera stays in position, focusing down low near the ground as a pair of black boots step into view. As the scene pans upwards we can see the mauve trim around the dark purple kickpads. Further up and we see the black kneepads bedazzled with violet colored hearts upon each one, a B in one heart and a H in the other. Still, further, and we see the man is wearing black lycra shorts, the lower edge of which are cut with a dark purple trim. He rests his hands on his hips, white tape wrapped around each wrist as the camera pans past them to the black t-shirt that the man is wearing, a steel colored heart emblazoned in the center of the chest.

He closes the door behind him as the camera finally reaches his face; the man looks determined. His lips pressed tightly together, his nose scrunched up and his brow furrowed. Fire burning in those hazelnut brown eyes; Ben Hanson has rarely had a more hated rival than Chandler Scott has become over the last year and he knows full well that he only has one chance to get this right. One chance to end this, to get the better of the man who took that title from him at 'Above & Beyond', who cried foul at the Anniversary Show. The man who, in a few moments, will be standing across the ring from him.

Ben Hanson: This ends tonight...

Hanson says to no-one in particular as he strides off away from the camera and down the corridor, a hurried pace to his walk.

[FGA Office]

MAIN EVENT
Chandler Scott vs. "Metal Heart" Ben Hanson

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. And it is your first of two main events of the evening!

Cheers and applause can be heard throughout the crowd....

Chandler Scott can be seen walking hand in hand throughout the backstage area with Madison Scott. Once he makes his way to the area near the curtain, the two kiss before she gives him a pat on the back. Once his music is cued up, Chandler's given the okay to head out.....

The classic beginning notes of "Ride of the Valkyries" plays over the PA as the fans in attendance know who is about to grace them with their presence. Out through the curtain steps Chandler Scott, wearing his Harvard letterman jacket. Chandler ignore the boos, jeers and catcalls of the crowd, shooing them away like the trash that they are.

Cruz: Introducing first, from Hyannis Port, Massachusetts..... weighing in at 255 pounds..... CHANDLER SCOTT!

Clement: Chandler Scott, after months and months of whining and complaining finally gets his chance to get in the ring with Ben Hanson one last time. It wasn't enough that he actually beat Hanson on his own for the FGA Heavyweight Champion. He had to rub the loss in Hanson's face. He had to mock Hanson for months on end. He had to cry about some non existent conspiracy against him and how Hanson was always the favored son. But here's the thing. People didn't like Hanson because he was "the golden child". They liked Hanson over Chandler because, quite frankly, Chandler acted like a jackass. And hopefully tonight, Hanson will do what he's promised the world he'll do. And that's shove his boot right down Chandler's fat mouth!

Grayson: So much for non biased commentary.

Clement: That's rich coming from you...

Chandler steps into the ring. He slowly turns around in a circular motion with his arms outstretched, basking in his glory while the crowd continues to boo.

Ben Hanson can be seen walking around the corner backstage. Backstage personnel start up a "Let's go Ben" chant, causing Ben to let out a bit of a smirk. Once he reaches the area near the curtain, he begins hopping up and down, waiting impatiently for his music to be cued up. Once he's given the okay, Hanson heads towards the curtain.......

The lights in the building dim down as a curious silence falls over the crowd. A solitary purple spotlight shine down at the top of the aisle as the familiar guitar chords strike out; “Let’s See Action” by The Who will always be a familiar sound to the FGA fans and the crowd here in Newark cheer as loudly as the audiences used to do in New Jersey. Ben Hanson steps out into the spotlight; the crowd pops as ‘The Metal Heart’ poses with his arms spread out wide.

Cruz: And making his one night return to an FGA ring! Residing out on Santa Barbara, California.... weighing in at 216 pounds..... he is "Metal Heart" BEN HANSON!

Hanson strides down the aisle, slapping hands with any and all willing fans. It takes nearly a minutes for him to finally reach the ring as he climbs up the steel steps and ascends to the middle rope whereupon he, once again, poses for the fans.

Grayson: Well well. Look at the crowd going nuts for Ben Hanson. It looks the The Prodigal Son has returned.

Clement: Ben Hanson has been subjected to Chandler's taunts, tirades and childish antics for nearly six months now. I know he cannot wait to uncork and unleash all that bottled up anger he has for that silver spoon sucking brat.

The bell sounds as Chandler darts over and spears Ben down to boos from the crowd. He then mounts himself on top of Ben and hammers away with hard rights to the face.

Clement: And Chandler waists no time driving Ben down to the canvas. Both of these men, despite however you may feel about either of them, are great athletes. But this will not be a wrestling match. This will be nothing more than fight to the finish.

"Let's See Action" blasts over the PA to a pop from the crowd.

Cruz: Here is your winner, BEN HANSON!

After the match, Ben gets his hand raised in victory to cheers from the crowd. He then rolls to the outside, climbs over the guard rail and celebrates with the crowd as they cheer him on!

Clement: Ben did it! He finally got his revenge! Chandler Scott ran his mouth for months on end. And tonight, it was shut by Ben Hanson in his one night return to FGA! Good for him and good for FGA!

A "Metal Heart!" chant breaks out as Ben weaves his way through the crowd, celebrating with the fans.

[FGA Office]

Suddenly, the lights go out in the arena.

Clement: What's going on now?

Grayson: They're kicking us out already?

The crowd begins to talk amongst themselves, wondering what's going on. Suddenly, the lights begin to flash in various hues that could surely induce an epileptic seizure. A humming noise can be heard over the PA similar to a helicopter's chopper. But it can't definitively be made out. The sounds gets louder as a booming voice can be heard over the PA

Voice: The Beast Rises.........TONIGHT!

And just like that, total silence. The lights are shut back off and the only noise in the arena are the fans who continue to wonder what's going on.

Grayson: Do you have any idea what's going on?

Clement: I don't have a clue, Evan....

Suddenly, the lights come back on as “Self Esteem” by The Offspring blasts over the PA!

Grayson: Oh you've got to be kidding me.

Clement: No way. It isn't him....

Suddenly, Kevin Hardaway bursts through the curtain to shock, awe and cheers from the crowd.

Clement: It is him! It is him!

Grayson: Want to say it again?

Clement: It is him! It's Kevin Hardaway, formerly of Pro-Wrestling FRONTIER. But what on earth is he doing here at an FGA event?

Grayson: I know one thing. He's not Public Enemy #1 like he was the last time...

Kevin acknowledges some of the fans in the front row who start up a “K-HARD!” chant. After making his way into the ring, he calls for a mic. As his music dies down, the chants of the crowd fill up the building....

Crowd: Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.

K-Hard: It’s amazing that I remember the last time I was in a FGA ring, since I somehow remember getting my head caved in by a Mr. Pat Gordon. Hell, I’m surprised I’m getting such a hero’s welcome, after all of the BS that transpired between Frontier Grappling Arts and…

He takes a short pause and also takes a deep breath before saying…

K-Hard: Pro-Wrestling FRONTIER.

Suddenly the crowd goes off with boos; as Hardaway lets the crowd finish their peace before starting to talk again.

K-Hard: Yeah, I’m aware of that. And like I said, I’m rather surprised. Then again…maybe not. For those of you who haven’t seen the show yet, and…pfft, I don’t blame you…FRONTIER’s final show of the year saw a “changing of the guard” if you will. You all remember Scott Mayo’s crusade to stop you guys from even existing? So much so, that after me and Pat Gordon Jr. let bygones be bygones, he stormed to the ring and got a headbutt from Mr. Gordon. Hence, me being allowed on FGA cameras to tell people of my ultimatum. That either Scott Mayo was going to be fired by the end of December 16th, or I was gone from FRONTIER. Pretty simple, really.

And to make sure they wanted me to stick around, they dusted off one of my old rivals from the bowels of retirement to face me on the 12/16 show. Bradley Kane. And apparently I later found out that a broken neck and sitting at home can do wonders to a retired guy. So much so that he went out of his way to make sure I was not just dragged under the bus, but ran over 3 times. Obviously I found out that it was Scott Mayo’s idea. To make me look bad and then kick me out while I was down. Well, luckily for me, I had Mayo’s confident in Matt Montell to make sure I stuck around. Even making our match the main event and a Chivalry is Dead match.

The crowd cheers for that callback to the last time Hardaway wrestled in a CiD match here. One of the best matches of the year in regards to FGA fans.

K-Hard: Fair enough. And in turn, he got a cricket bat to the face and I made sure he wasn’t going to walk around in FRONTIER again…that’s when Montell came out, and I forgot to mention about this, but…Montell is the new commissioner of the company. Listen, I don’t like Scott Mayo, as much as everybody else here. But I don’t wish ill will on ANYBODY. Maybe my biggest enemies, but definitely not Mayo. And what happened w/ him suffering a stroke IN THE RING, was definitely a hollow victory on my part. But for some reason. It turns out I was wrong. I was wrong from the start.

Dammit, I got fired. The…if it’s not okay to swear on camera, then I’m sorry for this…but the motherfucker FIRED me. Right before Christmas, when I have a four-year old daughter waiting at home. What was I supposed to tell her? Sorry, kid, but Santa bailed out on you this year? I can’t do that. It just turned out that he was WORSE than Scott Mayo ever was. He didn’t realize that I’ve been with that company since DAY ONE, and I made damn sure that the company wasn’t going to go belly-up without me. So much so, that I stuck around even when Mayo didn’t want me as their poster boy. Instead going to people like Alex Jones, CJ Osborne, and Gabriel Gambino.

I still stuck around.

So guess what…I’m officially here to put my name in the hat. New year, new frontier.

The crowd absolutely goes nuts at the huge announcement being told here. Frontier Grappling Arts has looked to sign Kevin Hardaway. He smiles at the crowd cheering him on, even partaking in an “F-G-A, F-G-A, F-G-A” chant.

K-Hard: Honestly, I had this idea going in of coming out as this masked person. Hence the videos you saw on the recent shows. With the last one saying about my name being “Kaiju”. I had this idea in my head, and well…when those scum at FRONTIER kicked me to the curb and back to the USA, I had a change of heart. I would not be some guy hiding in a mask. I am Kevin Fucking Hardaway. And starting in a couple weeks, I’m making it clear. It’s about high time FGA got an official taste of the unbreakable!

And with that, K-hard drops the mic as “Self Esteem” blasts over the PA to cheers from the crowd. Hardaway heads into the corner, climbs up onto one of the turnbuckles and takes in the scene around him.

Clement: I cannot believe this. Kevin Hardaway.... now an FGA wrestler? Can this not get any bigger?

Grayson: Oh, it certainly can. The Heavyweight Championship Match is still to come! But Hardaway in FGA? I know a lot of people are going to like this. But I have this sneaky suspicion that some people will NOT like it. Nope, not one bit....

MAIN EVENT
2 out of 3 Falls for the FGA Heavyweight Championship
(c) A.J. Fairchild vs. Ryan Kidd

[/b][/center]
The intro to “Dark Horse“ emanated from the PA system. The lights began to flicker as the song kicks in. Ryan Kidd comes out from the back. He began hardcore dancing on the floor spinning around like there's no tomorrow before raising his arms up in the air to the delight of the fans. He walks down to the ring high fiving the fans by the security railings. He goes around the ring high fiving more fans ringside before stopping in front of a steel steps. He climbs the steps and stops at the ring apron before looking around the venue. He climbs the top rope from the ring apron and raises both his arms up before somersaulting down to the ring. He walks to the opposite side of the ring and raises his arms again before walking to his corner while his music fades.

Clement: Ryan Kidd is so determined to step up to the next level. He says that A.J. Fairchild has inspired him to step up his game and achieve greatness. He came so close to winning the 2012 New Frontiers Cup when A.J. pulled out the win.It seems as though Fairchild has always been just one step ahead of Kidd. Will he achieve greatness tonight?

"Fall" by M83 plays over the venue's sound system, and emerging from the back stage area is A.J. Fairchild. Fairchild takes his time walking down the entrance ramp, examining the strong mixed reaction that he's getting from the crowd.. He makes his way down to the ring slowly, his eyes dead set on the ring. The fans seated along the entrance ramp area, make the bowing down motion as A.J. strolls pass them. Nearing the end of the exit ramp, A.J. lifts a fist into the air, pumping it a couple of times before darting towards the ring apron. Hopping onto the ring apron, A.J. wipes his boots on the mat, and turns to look at all of the fans in attendance, with a small smirk on his face he grabs the ring ropes and lunges himself over and into the ring.

Clement: A.J. Fairchild has shown a much more arrogant side to him recently since winning the belt. He's targeted some of the fans, and even Ryan Kidd in some recent rants. This match was originally not a Bets 2 out of 3 Falls Match. Fairchild suggested this match and Kidd, knowing that a much like this could very well benefit him, took him up on that challenge. Will A.J.'s newfound arrogance cost him tonight? We send it to the ring to Manny Cruz for the ring introductions....

Cruz: The following contest is your second main event of the evening. And it is a 2 out of 3 Falls match for the FGA Heavyweight Championship!

Cheers and applause can be heard throughout the crowd.

Cruz: Introducing first, the challenger. From Long Beach, California. He weighs in at 215 pounds. He is currently the reigning UWL International Heavyweight Champion. Ladies and gentlemen, he is The SoCal Superstar and Pro Wrestling’s Evil Knievel.......... RYAN KIDD!

Cheers and applause can be heard as Kidd raises his arm in the air.

Cruz: And his opponent.... now residing out of Manhattan, New York. He weighs in at 190 pounds. He is the 2012 New Frontiers Cup Winner. Ladies and gentlemen, he is the reigning..... defending..... FGA Heavyweight Champion..... he is FGA's Pissed Off Champion, A.................J................ FAIRCHILD!

A strong chorus of cheers and boos can be heard throughout the crowd as Fairchild raises his FGA Heavyweight Championship belt in the air. Senior Official Bruce Mitchell then asks for the belt. Fairchild checks himself out in the reflection before handing it over to Mitchell. Mitchell then makes his way over to Kidd and shows him the belt. Kidd nods before delivering a light tap with his knuckles onto the center plate. Mitchell then raises the belt in the air for all to see before handing it over to Cruz on the outside. He asks Fairchild if he's ready. Fairchild tells him that he was born ready. He asks Kidd if he's ready. Kidd nods. Mitchell then calls for the bell.The bell sounds as both men make their way to the center of the ring.....

Clement: Here we go. The FGA heavyweight Championship will be decided in a Best 2 out of 3 Falls Match. Who has the advantage?

Grayson: It's clearly the champion. He's already beaten Kidd, so Kidd has that in the back of his mind. Plus, Fairchild doesn't have to beat Kidd. Kidd HAS to beat him. Hell, if this match goes to a third and deciding fall, Fairchild could get himself disqualified and STILL walk out the champion.

Clement: That is true. A belt cannot changes hands by count out or disqualification. But how will this strong mixed reaction effect A.J. Fairchild? I think that's a question we'll find out as this match goes on....

Grayson: Who is this?

Clement: I believe that's Vikki Synn, Ryan Kidd's lady friend. I know she wants to help Kidd. But this is not the time or the place for her.

A concerned Fairchild gets up and tries to look at her, but one look from Kidd lets him know that his presence is no longer needed. Kidd continues to stare a hole through Fairchild as Fairchild slowly steps back and exits the ring. Hecklers at ringside can be heard going "NICE JOB, FAIRCHILD!", "SMOOTH MOVE, FAIRCHILD!", "NICE AIM, DUMBASS!" He can be heard telling people that it was an accident. But they don't want to hear it, either. Up at the top of the ramp, Fairchild looks on with sorrow written all over his face. He shakes his head in shame before turning around and walking back through the curtain.....
