Williamsport DVD Taping (3.21.12)

[FGA Office]

Kevin Clement: Hello everyone, I'm Kevin Clement. Joining me as always is my partner, Evan Grayson. And we thank you for purchasing this latest installment from Frontier Grappling Arts. We come to you tonight, on March 21st, from the Campbell Street Center in Willimasport, Pennsylvania. We are just a little over a week away from FGA's second supershow, Spring Breakage. And things have done nothing but heat up.

Evan Grayson: They certainly have. There are no championships on the line tonight. But pride is on the line. And even more important than that is momentum. No one wants to go into Spring Breakage next week on the losing end. Everyone involved at Spring Breakage is in a high profile match. Each man wants to go into their individual matches with as much of an advantage as possible.

Clement: That's true. Tonight we've got fo--

Before Kevin Clement can announce the match listing for tonight's show, the lights go out in the arena. The crowd murmurs in anticipation and a few flashes go off, briefly illuminating the small Campbell Street Center. From the sound system speakers, the familiar voice of Samuel L. Jackson's character “Jules” from Pulp Fiction breaks the silence, bellowing “And you will know My name is the Lord, when I lay My vengeance upon thee!” The declaration is followed by three quick gun-blasts that startle a few members of the audience before leading into an instrumental version of Dr. Dre's “Still Dre.”

Grayson: We were told some newly acquired talent was scheduled to appear tonight in Williamsport, this appears to be one of those wrestlers...

(Some of the fans stomp or clap in time with the beat of the song, as lights begin to strobe in time, and a man appears from behind the backstage curtain. The man is attired in a black hooded sweatshirt with Japanese kanji scrawled up the length of both sleeves in gold lettering, and a black-and-gold American flag turned sideways down the back of the sweatshirt. The hood is raised over the man's head and a black-and-gold bandanna that he wears covering his forehead, and the sweatshirt is unzipped to reveal a simple black T-shirt underneath and a set of gold dog tags. The man also wears a black studded belt looped through dark blue jeans that hang over black and white Adidas classics.)

Clement: Ladies and gentlemen, it appears that – for the first time in over a year – Sean Fallon is back on American soil. Wrestling fans might know Fallon from his time in Japan wrestling in Samurai Pro.

(Sean Fallon makes his way to the ring at a casual pace, ignoring the out-stretched hands of the fans at ringside. Fallon walks a half-circuit around the ring before sliding under the bottom rope and hopping back up to his feet with a quick flourish. Fallon walks over the ring announcer, saying something to him as the music peters out and the lights rise in the arena. Fallon stands with his head slightly down, his face obscured by the hood.)

Manny Cruz: Ladies and gentlemen, FRONTIER Grappling Arts is honored and privileged to present to you, for the first time in over a year on American soil, the great...

(Cruz pauses, looking over at Fallon. Fallon's head jerks to glare at Cruz, before shouting at him to finish the introduction.)

Cruz: ...ahem... the greatest fucking wrestler ever to step into the ring, SEAN FALLON!

(Fallon tosses back his hood with a smug smirk across his face, and parades briefly around the ring with his arms out-stretched, presenting himself to the crowd at the Campbell Street Center. Some members of the crowd cheer or clap politely and a few boo based on the forced introduction. Fallon walks over to Cruz and snatches the microphone from his grip before motioning with his thumb for Cruz to take a hike.)

Grayson: Not exactly respectful treatment there from Sean Fallon.

(Fallon slowly raises the microphone towards his mouth before noticing the “FGA” band around the handle. Fallon wretches the band off and tosses it unceremoniously from the ring, eliciting a short chorus of boos for the act.)

Clement: Nor was that, Evan.

(Fallon brings the microphone up again and begins to speak.)

Sean Fallon: Greetings, True Believers. Your long national nightmare is finally at an end. Sean Fallon is back in the U.S. of A., and soon enough the whole world will see why I am the greatest fucking wrestler ever to step into the ring. But they sure as hell won't see it tonight. Why? Because this is a house show, and Sean Fallon doesn't wrestle house shows, ESPECIALLY not house shows in backwater open cesspools like Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

(Whatever goodwill or tolerance the crowd had allowed Fallon is officially gone as they vehemently boo him.)

Fallon: A man of my caliber and pedigree does not demean himself to wrestle for slack-jawed yokels and bumbling inbreds without getting the proper payday and buy-rates for it.

(Fallon rubs his thumb and forefinger together in the international sign for money.)

Fallon: The greatest fucking wrestler of all-time deserves better than Willaimsport, Pennsylvania for my in-ring debut with FRONTIER, and nothing short of a Super-Show would suffice for Super Sean. Every match I wrestle should be a pay-per-view event and every word I speak should be preserved for all eternity so future generations can learn from and bask in the brilliance I speak.

Clement: He certainly doesn't have an issue with confidence.

Fallon: So if any of you cretins have managed to steal a video camera from someone with a real job, now is the time to wipe the chicken-fat and bacon-grease from your sausage-like fingers and it the big red “record” button. Because I want to see my name and my face all over the Internet; the whole damn world NEEDS the word of Sean Fallon. And you people here in Williamsburg can tell your cousins-slash-grandkids about the time you got to see me live and in-person.

(The crowd boos lustily, though it is uncertain whether it's for the mix-up of their city's name, the insults to their weight or the implication of their in-breeding.)

Fallon: I came to FRONTIER for one simple reason: I was lied to. I was lied to because someone told me that this was a promotion worth my time, worth effort and worth my immense, unending supply of skill. I was lied to and told that FRONTIER had some of the best wrestlers in this country, but all I've seen are a bunch of candy-asses; recovering alcoholics; pot-heads; buffoons and green-as-gooseshit rookies who parade around pretending to be professional wrestlers. And I see some glorified shine-boy walking around with a championship belt around his waist. So let me make myself abundantly clear from square one: Blaine Harrison – Shine-Boy – enjoy that belt while you have it, enjoy making cute little quips on Twitter for all the Internet nerds and marks to gawk over, and make sure you use those Shine-Boy hands to keep that belt well polished. Because make no mistake about it, I am coming for MY FRONTIER Heavyweight Championship belt.

(The crowd boos again and a small “Harr-i-son” chant kicks up before eventually dying back down.)

Fallon: But before I have the pleasure of ripping the “metal heart” from Shine-Boy's chest, I have to debase myself and squander my talents in a Four-Way match against three turds on March 31st at Spring Breakage. The three quote-unquote “men” that have the honor of getting their asses handed back to them by greatness personified are Xavier Johnson, Johnny Brave and Benny Starr. Don't bother trying to remember those names; you'll never about any of them again except in references to the permanent skid marks and bloodstains that they'll leave on this canvas after I break their wills, crush their dreams and snap their necks. After that, I don't care who I have to beat, who I have to maim or whose skull I need to kick in; I will be the FGA Heavyweight Champion, and I will take my rightful spot at the top of this promotion and the top of this industry. Until then...

(Fallon sticks up his forefinger and middle finger in the traditional “peace” sign.)

Fallon: Deuces.

Fallon drops the microphone with a loud “thunk” before kicking it out of the ring toward the ring announcer. “Still Dre” kicks up as Fallon tosses the hood back over his head and exits the ring.....

[FGA Office]

(( The scene cuts to a shot of the locker room door. It slowly opens to see one of Frontier's newest wrestlers, "Super" Benny Starr stood in a pair of hot pink trunks. On her knees in front of him is Benny's rather masculine wife, Cerise Starr, applying baby oil to Benny's abs. ))

Cerise Starr: Hold still, will you? I'm running out of baby oil. Oh, but I've got some olive oil in my handbag.

Benny Starr: Who keeps olive oil in their bag?

Cerise Starr: I do. You never know when you're gonna need it.

Benny Starr: When will you ever need olive oil, you stupid woman?

Cerise Starr: When you're oiling your husband's body and you run out of baby oil.

(Benny raises his hand in anger until he notices the camera. He then quickly lowers his hand and a smiles heavily. As the camera moves back, Benny walks with it, out of the locker room and into the hallway. He then begins to walk down the corridor, passing a few wrestlers and backstage staff.)

Benny Starr: For those of you who haven't been paying attention, allow me to introduce myself. I put the 'S', the 'E' and the 'X' in 'Suplex'... I put the 'Super' in 'Superplex'... and I put the 'Body' in 'Bodyslam' when I flex.

(At which point, Benny comes to an abrupt halt and begins to flex his right arm, smiling and nodding cockily as he does so.)

Benny Starr: I am "Super" Benny Starr! And that's 'S', 'T', 'A', 'Double-R' and the extra 'R' is for 'Ravishing'!

(Benny reaches out and grips the collar of a nearby referee, pulling him onto the set.)

Benny Starr: You! Raise my hand.

(The referee looks confused, but complies, lifting Benny's hand into the air. Benny closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, basking in the glow of his imaginary victory.)

Benny Starr: Get used to seeing this, folks. 'Cause while Frontier may have a lotta stars here, there is only one superstarr and that's me! I am simply the best... and I am better than sex! See you at Spring Breakage...

Xavier Johnson vs. Johnny Brave
With "Taking You Down" playing ovr the PA system, Xavier comes out of the curtain swinging kicks and punches. Then smoke comes out from the side of the stage and he runs down to the ring and slides in with a cocky smile on his face.

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit. Introducing first, from Seattle, Washington.... Weighing in at 240 pounds.... XAVIER JOHNSON!

Clement: Xavier Johnson, the self-proclaimed Last Great Hope, makes his debut in FGA tonight as he takes on another newcomer. What can we look from Xavier here tonight?

Grayson: Well if Xavier is The Last Great Hope, then I think we're all in serious trouble. As far as what we can expect? Well, he's a striker. So he's obviously going to want to keep this match standing. And despite being at a height disadvantage, he has about 30 pounds on his opponent. So he may try to throw his weight around.....

Lights go out in the entire arena, as AC/DC's "Thunderstuck" starts to blare over the PA. Smoke then starts to pour down the aisle and along ringside as high quality laser lights pan back and fourth giving sight. Johnny "The Hitman" Brave walks through the curtains as fans cheer him on. He then moves his arms in a warm-up manner, then dashes towards the ring with his arms out clapping the fans hands.

Cruz: And his opponent, from Chicago, Illinois... Weighing in at 215 pounds... JOHNNY BRAVE!

Clement: "Lights Out" Johnny Brave makes his FGA debut in this match as well. What can we expect from Brave?

Grayson: Brave is a striker as well. But he takes some risk, too. So I wouldn't be surprised if he took it to the air once or twice in this one...

When he gets to the ring, Johnny Brave dives through the bottom rope, letting his body slide to mid-center ring. He then raises his right hand to more cheers for the fans. The high quality laser lights come to an end as the arena's light slowly fades on.

The bell sounds as Xavier and Brave circle the ring. They inch closer towards each other and lock up. After jockeying for position, Brave uses his strength to move Xavier into the ropes. The ref then scurries over and gives both men until the count of five to break the hold.

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

Both men slowly let go. While Brave has his arms in the air, Xavier shoves him back to boos from the crowd.

Clement: Cheapshot right off the bat from Xavier.

Grayson: He's just letting Brave know that he's not a punk, unlike him.

As soon as Brave comes back towards him, Xavier slips through the ropes and goes to the outside. The crowd boos as Xavier takes his time walking around the ring. He then rolls back in and circles the ring. The two men lock up. After jockeying for position, Brave quickly takes Xavier down with a fireman's carry. Brave quickly tries for am armbar attempt, but Xavier squirms away and rolls to the outside. The crowd boos again as Xavier takes his sweet time walking around the ring.

Clement: And there he goes running to the outside again.

Grayson: Well what do you expect him to do? If someone is about to put you in an armbar, are you just going to lay there? Of course not.

He then climbs back up onto the apron and steps through the ropes. After circling the ring, the two inch towards each other. Xavier goes for a collar and elbow tie up, but Brave ducks underneath, grabs him from behind, lifts him up and throws him down with a waistlock takedown. He then turns around on Xavier's back and applies a front facelock. The crowd applauds. The ref asks Xavier if he wants to give up. But Xaveir refuses to quit. He slowly gets back up onto his knees and then to his feet. After moving Brave back into the corner, Xavier reaches out and grabs the middle rope, forcing the ref to break the hold. The ref then goes over and gives Brave until the count of five to break the hold.

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

As Brave breaks the hold, Xavier lunges forward and nails him with a shoulder thrust to the midsection. The crowd boos. He then delivers two more shoulder thrusts before nailing Brave with a forearm strike to the face. Xavier then takes Brave and whips him into the opposite corner. Xavier charges into the corner and connects with a running clothesline. As Brave stumbles from out of the corner, Xavier runs into the adjacent set of ropes. When Xavier comes back, he charges and connects with a running dropkick, sending Brave stumbling through the ropes and to the floor. Xavier then gets up and points to Brave on the floor. He then runs into the ropes as Brave slowly gets up on the outside. When Xavier comes back, he charges and goes for a suicide dive. But Brave back up and counters with a DDT on the outside. Cheers and applause can be heard throughout the crowd.

Clement: What a counter there by Johnny Brave!

Grayson: How did he pull that off?

Brave then picks up Xavier and rolls him back into the ring. Brave rolls himself back in and makes the cover. 1.............................2................... Xavier gets his shoulder up.

Clement: Another pin attempt only gets two.

Grayson: This Xavier guy is no slouch.

Brave picks him up and whips him into the ropes. When Xavier comes back, Brave goes for a scissors kick, but Xavier ducks and runs into the ropes. When Xavier comes back, he spears Brave down to the canvas. Boos and applause can be heard throughout the crowd. He makes the cover. 1..........................2.............. Brave gets his shoulder up.

Clement: Only two!

Grayson: I thought it may have been over there...

Xavier picks up Brave and delivers a knee strike to the midsection, doubling him over. He then runs into the ropes. When Xavier comes back, he delivers a knee to the side of the head, knocking him down. Xavier then paces back and forth around the ring, waiting for Brave to get up. As Brave slowly gets up, Xavier runs over and nails him with an enzu clothesline from behind. The crowd boos as he turns Brave over and makes the cover. 1........................2................ Brave gets his shoulder up. Xavier then picks up Brave and throws him down with a scoop slam. He then runs towards the ropes, hops up onto the middle rope and goes for a lionsault. But Brave puts his knees up. Xavier ends up crashing across the knees to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: Xavier is down! This is Brave's chance to get back in this...

As Xavier curls up in pain, Brave gets back up to his feet to cheers from the crowd. He then runs into the ropes as Xavier slowly gets back up. When Brave comes back, he grabs Xavier and plants him with a swinging DDT. The crowd cheers. He then gets up, heads into the corner, springboards up to the top turnbuckle and connects with a moonsault. The crowd cheers. Brave then gets up and waits for Xavier to get back up. Once Xavier slowly gets up and turns around, Brave connects with the Lights Out to cheers from the crowd. He makes the cover. 1........................2......................3.

Cruz: Here is your winner, JOHNNY BARVE!

"Thunderstruck" hits as Brave gets back up to his feet. He goes over to the ref who raises his arm in the air to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: Johnny Brave picks up his first win heere in FGA.

Grayson: It was luck. All luck. Let's see him do it again.

Clement: Well, Brave will have the chance to do it again. Because next week at Spring Breakage, he will facing Xavier Johnson, "Super" Benny Starr and Sean Fallon in a Four Corners Elimination Ma--

Clement stops mid-sentence as Sean Fallon rolls into the ring, runs up from behind Brave and nails him with a Roaring Elbow to the back of the head, knocking him down to the canvas. The crowd boos as Fallon taunts them, making them even more irate.

Clement: What the hell was that?

Grayson: Looks like Johnny Brave wasn't the only newcomer to make a statement tonight, wouldn't you say?

[FGA Office]

(( The scene opens in the locker room where Justice Young is standing with Micky O'Reilly. ))

Justice: Hello ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with Micky O'Reilly. So far in his FGA career, he's had three matches and won all of them. How are you feeling about tonight's fight against Jacques Mercier?

Micky: Confident, I've given up the drink and been putting in the gym work with Bobby Grey. I feel great.

Justice: Yes, you gave up alcohol after your victory against Preston Blake two weeks ago as promised in your unconventional promo. Coincidentally that was the same night that Mike Tomkins lost his title to Blaine Harrison, something that nobody was expecting. What do you have to say about that?

Micky: To be honest with you fella I wasn't surprised. Mike Hopkins, as I like to know him, isn't a fighter. He was a face for the company. I've fought Blaine and I've taken down Hopkins more times than I can count. I can testify to the fact that although Blaine isn't the toughest of opponents he at least has more heart than that other piece of scum. I'd like to know how Hopkins feels, having had his undeserved title taken from him.

(O'Reilly stares into the camera, addressing Tomkins directly.)

Micky: I bet it hurts doesn't it fella? The best thing to come from this is getting to see you fall.

(He turns back to Justice Young.)

Micky: I told everyone that Hopkins was a terminal disease eating at this company, and I was right. Now other people are realizing this and he's getting the treatment he deserves. He's in remission, and in two weeks time at Spring Breakage I will eradicate whatever is left of him.

Justice: Strong words. Now you mentioned Spring Breakage, in previous weeks you told us that on the night you're going to reveal Tomkins' big "secret" can you give us any clues as to what it might be?

Micky: No, but what I will say is that as a religious man and as a man of integrity his actions as a human being go against every belief I've ever had, and I dare say against every belief of all the fans out there tonight. And after I've put the real Hopkins on display for everyone to see there will only be one thing left to do…

Justice: And that is?

Micky: To beat him down, just like Blaine did. Which reminds me, Blaine, you've got my belt. After Hopkins, I'm coming for you. This company needs an honest, god-fearing man at the top. A man like me. Watch your back....

Preston Blake vs. Jared James
The Nosiecontroller's big hit "Gimme Love" starts up as the arena goes dark with a sole light fixated on the curtain. Smoke begins to pour into the venue when, finally, Jared James comes out from the back. As the music continues to blare, Jared James slowly walks down the ramp and to the ring.

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a twenty minute time limit. Introducing first, from Des Moines.... Weighing in at 197 pounds.... JARED JAMES!

Clement: Jared James hasn't been seen or heard from in a while now. He seems to have found himself in a rut both professionally and personally. Tonight could be the night that Jared gets himself back on the right track.

Grayson: Or it could be the night that Preston Blake does what he said he's going to do, and that's crush Jared James. Jared hasn't been seen since that loss to The Harvard Connection a couple of weeks back. And seeing Blaine Harrison win that FGA Heavyweight Championship before him had to hurt his ego. Now, he's at his most vulnerable. And if there's one thing that The Harvard Connection does best, it's take advantage of a situation.....

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 Preston Blake, sporting his Harvard letterman jacket. He looks as dashing and smashing as ever as he makes his way down to the ring with Madison Stewart right behind him. Preston stops halfway down the aisle and surveys the filthy animals that call themselves fans in the crowd. He turns his nose up as he tries to stop from vomiting at the sight of them.

Cruz: And his opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Madison Stewart..... from The Hamptons, weighing in at 218 pounds..... PRESTON BLAKE!

He continues his walk down the aisle, keeping his arms away from the dirty and disgusting slobs that reach over the guard rail to grab at him. After walking up the steps, Preston helps Madison up onto the apron. He then wipes his feet off on the apron before sitting down on the middle rope. He holds up the top rope for Madison. After she enters the ring, Preston gets in the ring himself, springboards onto the second rope and raises an index finger in the air, letting the crowd know who truly is number one.

As soon as the bell sounds, Preston charges into the corner to deliver a clothesline. But Jared ducks. When Preston turns around, Jared unleashes a series of knife-edge chops that echo throughout the arena. He then delivers a series of right hands. Each blow sends Preston slumping further and further down in the corner. Jared then delivers several stomps to the chest before walking out of the corner and playing up to the crowd. They cheer him on. Preston reaches up, grabs the top ropes and slowly pulls himself up in the corner. Jared sees this, so he charges back into the corner and connects with a dropkick to the face, sending Preston stumbling out of the corner before falling to the canvas. He then slowly rolls to the outside where Madison tries to console him. But Jared doesn't let up. So he runs into the ropes while Madison helps Preston up on the outside. As Jared comes back, he charges forward and connects with a baseball slide, knocking both Preston and Madison down on the floor. The crowd cheers. Jared gets back up and runs into the ropes. Meanwhile, Preston slowly pulls himself up using the edge of the apron. When Jared comes back, he charges forward and connects with a suicide dive, knocking Preston down to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: Jared is absolutely on fire here tonight.

Grayson: It's like he didn't lose a step.

While Jared plays up to the crowd, Preston slowly pulls himself up using the edge of the barricade. Jared turns around and sees this, so he goes over to attack Preston. But Preston nails him with a poke to the eyes to boos from the crowd. He then grabs a hold of Jared and slams his head against the barricade to boos from the crowd. He then grabs Jared by the arm, lifts it up and then throws it down hard against the barricade. The crowd boos as Jared drops to his knees, clutching his arm in pain. He then picks up Jared, rolls him back into the ring, reaches in, grabs the arm and swings it hard against the ring post. Jared immediately clutches the arm while he groans in pain.

Preston grabs a hold of the arm and swings it hard against the ring post again. The crowd boos as Preston and Madison taunt Jared. He then rolls into the ring, picks up Jared and slams his head into the top turnbuckle. Preston then reaches forward and rakes Jared across the eyes. He then places Jared in a side headlock and rakes his eyes along the top rope. The crowd boos as Jared stumbles around the ring before dropping down to his knees. Preston then goes over and delivers a kick to the back of the head, knocking Jared flat against the canvas. Preston reaches down, picks up Jared and throws him down with a hammerlock scoop slam. The crowd boos as Jared clutches his arm in pain. Preston then picks him up and delivers a hammerlock belly to back suplex. The crowd boos. Preston then picks up Jared and whips him into the ropes. When Jared comes back, Preston grabs a hold of him and throws him down with a hammerlock belly to belly suplex. The crowd boos as Preston makes the cover. 1...........................2................. Jared kicks out. So Preston keylocks the arm and makes the cover. 1..........................2................ Jared kicks out.

Clement: Preston has been absolutely relentless in his attack on Jared's arm here tonight.

Grayson: He wants to hurt Jared. He wants to embarrass him and leave no doubt that Jared is nothing but an overrated bum.

Preston picks up Jared and delivers an armbreaker across his shoulder. He then wrings Jared's arm and delivers another armbreaker across the shoulder. Preston delivers another arm wringer and follows up with a hammerlock single arm DDT. The crowd boos as he turns Jared over and makes the cover. 1.............................2................... Jared kicks out. Preston picks up Jared, throws him down with another hammerlock scoop slam, and then follows up with a cross armbreaker. The crowd boos as Preston tries to hyperextend the arm. But Jared is able to reach out and grab the bottom rope with his free hand. The ref then scurries over and gives him until the count of five to break the hold.

Ref: 1........................2........................3....................4.................. Preston reluctantly breaks the hold.

He then picks up Jared and whips him into the ropes. When Jared comes back, Preston goes for a clothesline. But Jared ducks and runs into the ropes. When Jared comes back, Preston runs and knocks him down with a lariat takedown. The crowd boos as Preston makes the cover. 1.........................2.............. Jared struggles to get his shoulder up. Preston then picks up Jared and goes for a vertical suplex, but Jared slips down from behind and rolls him up. 1..........................2................. Preston kicks out. As both men get up, Preston charges and goes for a clothesline. But Jared ducks, sending Preston running into the ropes. When Preston comes back, Jared knocks him down with a dropsault to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: Jared may have just gotten himself back into this. He's got to get back up.

Grayson: He's not going anywhere....

As both men slowly get up, Jared runs into the ropes. When Jared comes back, he knocks Preston down with a spinning heel kick. The crowd cheers. As both men slowly get up, Jared uses his good arm to unleash a series of knife-edge chops that echo throughout the arena. He then takes Preston and whips him into the ropes. When Preston comes back, Jared bends over to set up a back body drop. But Preston stops and kicks Jared square in his hurt shoulder. The crowd boos as Jared stands up and clutches the shoulder in pain. Whole Jared is stunned, Preston turns, runs towards the ropes and knocks him down with a springboard rebound kick to the face. The crowd boos. Preston then picks up Jared, lifts him up and sits him down backwards on the top turnbuckle. He then climbs up to the second turnbuckle, grabs Jared and delivers an avalanche backdrop. The crowd boos. Preston then crouches down behind Jared and waits impatiently for him to get up. As Jared slowly gets back up, Preston pounces on him and applies a Crossface Chickenwing from behind. The crowd boos. Jared tries to fight back, But Preston pulls him down to the canvas and wraps his legs around his waist. The crowd boos. Preston cinches in the hold as Jared can be heard screaming in pain. The ref asks Jared if he wants to give up. Jared then uses his free hand to tap out. The ref calls for the bell.

Cruz: Here is your winner, PRESTON BLAKE!

Preston keeps the hold locked on after the match. The ref tries to get him to break the hold, but its to no avail. The ring bell repeatedly sounds as the ref literally has to pry Preston off of Jared.

Clement: Absolutely uncalled for. He already won the match. Why add insult to injury?

Grayson: Because he wants to see a message. He wants to show Blaine that that can be him next week at Spring Breakage. And if Preston gets his way, it will....

Micky O'Reilly vs. Jacques Mercier
"Teenage Kicks" by The Undertones starts up and Micky steps through the curtain in an emerald green silk boxer's robes. He raises his right arm, his hand in a fist. He holds it for 3 seconds then lowers his arm.

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a thirty minute time limit. Introducing first, now residing in New Jersey..... Weighing in at 240 pounds.... MICKY O'REILLY!

Clement: Micky O'Reilly has kicked the booze and appears to be on his game 100%.

Grayson: And that spells very bad news for Michael Tomkins, who'll have to face O'Reilly in a Street Fight next week at Spring Breakage....

He struts down the aisle, pausing halfway to bless a young fan with the sign of the Cross. He continues down to the ring, walking up the corner steps and entering between the middle and top ropes. He goes into a corner, removes his robes and a crucifix underneath to reveal his new wrestling attire - emerald green wrestling pants and black wrestling boots with "The Slammer" in white lettering down the sides. Holding the crucifix he says a quick prayer before folding it into the middle of his robes and handing the bundle to a crew member at ringside.

The lights cut to black as “No Church in the Wild” by Jay-Z and Kanye West ft. Frank Ocean begins to play. The lights begin to flash and at the 24 second mark, Jacques Mercier comes out with a huge grin on his face. He stops at the top of the stage, soaking in the atmosphere, before nodding his head and walking towards the ring. He doesn’t bother using the stairs, preferring to just slide into the ring. He walks to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs it to another ovation before climbing down and waiting for his opponent.

Cruz: And his opponent, now residing out of Boston, Massachusetts.... Weighing in at 230 pounds.... JACQUES MERCIER!

Clement: Jacques Mercier has gone under a transformation of sorts. He's on his road to redemption, he says. A road that will ultimately lead him to the FGA Heavyweight Championship.

Grayson: Jacques has always had the talent. He may be the most talented man on this roster pound-for-pound. But it's always been a focus issue with him. It's always been a committment issue with him. But if he can commit himself and stay the course, big things may be ahead for him. But he's got a big obstacle in his way tonight with the undefeated Micky O'Reilly.....

The bell sounds as both men circle the ring and lock up. Jacques immediately places O'Reilly in a side headlock. But O'Reilly uses his strength advantage to shove Jacques off of him and into the ropes. When Jacques comes back, O'Reilly knocks him down with a running shoulderblock. O'Reilly runs back into the ropes as Jacques gets back up to his feet. When O'Reilly comes back, he knocks Jacques down with another running shoulderblock to boos from the crowd. O'Reilly runs back into the ropes as Jacques gets back up to his feet. When O'Reilly comes back, Jacques leap frogs over him, causing O'Reilly to continue running into the ropes. When O'Reilly comes back, Jacques knocks him down with a dropkick to cheers from the crowd. O'Reilly gets back up, only to get knocked back down by another dropkick from Jacques. The crowd cheers. As O'Reilly gets back up, Jacques throws him down with an arm drag to cheers from the crowd. As O'Reilly gets back up, Jacques applies a top wristlock. But O'Reilly gets up and counters with an arm wringer of own. He then tries to yank Jacques' arm from out of its socket, bringing him down to one knee.

Grayson: I still can't believe it....

Clement: Jacques Mercier appears to be beyond focused down. And the object of his desire is that FGA Heavyweight Championship...........

[FGA Office]

Clement: Coming up next, it's the brand new FGA Champion, Blaine Harrison, taking on Nic Venum. But he can't forget about Preston Blake, his opponent for next week at Spring Breakage.

Grayson: You're exactly right. He better still be thinking about Preston Blake. He better be concerned with Preston Blake. He needs to be scared of Preston Blake. If he isn't, he'll lose that belt just as quickly as Tomkins did.

Clement: I highly doubt that Blaine fears Preston. Does he respect him as a wrestler and as an athlete? I'm sure he does. But fear him? I think it's safe to say that our champion fears no man.

Grayson: Well isn't that unfortunate....

Clement: Blaine and Nic is coming up next. But before we send it to the ring, let's replay some of those comments that Blaine had last week on the Event Center. Let's take a look....

[FGA Office]

[ LAST WEEK ]

(( The show cuts backstage to where Blaine Harrison is stood in front of an FRONTIER Grappling Arts banner, which is hanging on the wall. He's dressed casually in a pair of jeans and a white v-neck tee; the FGA Heavyweight Championship title belt is draped over his left shoulder. Jenny Zellor is stood next to him. She's wearing a pair of tight jeans and a black vest; her nose is still a bit swollen from the incident in the gym the other week. ))

Jenny: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, your new FGA Heavyweight Champion...

(She says motioning at Blaine who steps forward with a shy smile on his face.)

Blaine: Thank you. It's been one hell of a week since I defeated Michael Tomkins for this title belt right here. People flocked around me backstage and asked me how it felt to be the new champion. I left the arena and people came up to me on the street and asked me how did I manage to defeat 'The Rogue'. I'm sat at my computer and they tweet me, they leave messages on my Facebook fan page congratulating me and asking me - how did you do that, Blaine? How did you end his seven match undefeated streak? How does it feel--how happy are you to be the new champ?

(Harrison pauses for a second. Okay, maybe four seconds.)

Blaine: I'll tell you what, last week, Michael Tomkins provided me with the toughest match I've ever wrestled! Period. He brought his a-game and we all know that Tomkins is one of the best pro wrestlers around today. There were times last week--like when he dropped me spine first across the ring apron, like when he executed Epica--that I didn't think I could pull through. But I'll tell you all right now how I managed to do the unthinkable ... Last week, I dug deeper than I thought I could. I fought with more heart than I knew I had. I had the warrior's spirit, the never-say-die attitude, the can-do thoughts that you need to 'the man'. I mean, to be the man you have to beat the man and this title belt right here says one thing ... I'm 'the man'.

(The shy smile returns as Blaine runs a hand across his chin.)

Blaine: As I've said a thousand times before, every time I step in that ring I wear my heart on my sleeve. I told you all when I came here that I wanted to be the best wrestler in FGA. And last week I certainly took one step closer to achieving that goal ... The next step is staying on top.

Jenny: And that's where Preston Blake comes in ... Some haters may say that Blaine is the luckiest man alive for having beaten Michael Tomkins last week, but we all know that the luckiest man in the FGA is Preston Blake.

(Blaine looks a little perturbed by Jenny's interruption, but he just grins and bears it. A quick glance down at the belt on his shoulder reminds him quickly of his priorities and besides, what harm could come from anything that Jenny says.)

Jenny: Preston Blake was what, third in line for a title shot? He was behind Blaine, he was behind Jared James, hell, he might even have been behind Micky O'Reilly after last week. But now since Blaine did the unimaginable and knocked Michael Tomkins off his throne, Preston Blake has that title shot that he's 'earned'.

Blaine: Jenny...

Jenny: What? It's true.

Blaine: Preston had the same claim to that belt I did. He's won his three matches just like I had. Yes, it's a stroke of luck that the match he challenged me to last month has suddenly become a title match. But like I said, he's earned it. I'm not going to stand here and hurl slander in his direction saying that he doesn't deserve this title match. No, no, no, not at all. What I'm going to say is plain and simple, Preston. You've got your title shot. You've got the same sort of opportunity I had last week in Huntington. And at 'Spring Breakage' it's going to be you and me, one-on-one in the middle of that squared circle. And I'm going to be in even better shape than I was last week, even tougher than I was when I won this strap. And I'm going to fight with more heart and more courage than you have ever, ever known.

(Blaine pats the title belt on his shoulder, smiling proudly as he does so.)

Blaine: And that's why at 'Spring Breakage' these fans won't see a repeat of the last time we were in the ring together. This time I'll be leaving the ring victorious. And I'll be leaving the same way I went in ... as the FGA Heavyweight Champion.

(( The smile broadens as Blaine glances down at the title and the scene fades to black. ))

Blaine Harrison vs. Nic Venum

Cruz: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, already in the ring.... NIC VENUM!

"Let's See Action" by The Who starts playing throughout the arena until Roger Daltrey's vocal booms forth as Blaine Harrison appears at the top of the aisle with Jenny by his side. Blaine poses with his right fist raised to the skies as Jenny stands to his left, lifting her right arm in the same manner.

Cruz: And his opponent, now residing out of Santa Barbara, California.... Weighing in at 216 pounds.... He is the reigning FGA Heavyweight Champion.......... BLAINE HARRISON!

Three seconds later and they're making their way down the aisle, slapping hands with the adoring fans on their respective sides before Blaine slides in under the bottom rope; Jenny takes her place outside the ring as they wait for the match to begin.

The bell sounds as both men heads towards the center of the ring and lock up. After jockeying for position, Nic places Blaine in a side headlock. But Blaine shoves him off of him and into the ropes. When Nic comes back, he knocks Blaine down with a running shoulderblock to boos from the crowd. He then runs into the ropes as Blaine gets back up to his feet. When Nic comes back, Blaine leap frogs over him, resulting in Nic running into the ropes. When Nic comes back, Blaine throws him down with a hip toss.

He then gets up off of Nic, picks him up and brings him near the corner. After hoisting himself up onto the second turnbuckle, Blaine grabs a hold of Nic and goes for a tornado DDT. But Nic throws him off of him in mid air. After Blaine lands safely on his feet, Nic charges out of the corner towards him. But Blaine knocks him down with a pump kick to the face to cheers from the crowd.

The crowd cheers as Blaine turns over and makes the cover. 1...............................2........................3.

Cruz: Here is your winner, BLAINE HARRISON!

"Let's See Action" plays as the ref hands Blaine the FGA Heavyweight Championship belt. He then raises the belt in the air to cheers from the crowd.

Clement: An absolutely dominating performance tonight by Blaine Harrison.

Grayson: It was a glorified sparring session. Nothing more, nothing less. We'll see what Blaine is made of next week when he actually faces stiff competition. In fact, we may not even have to wait.....

Blaine then climbs up onto the middle turnbuckle and raises his arm in the air to cheers from the crowd. But the cheers soon turn to boos once Preston Blake steps through the curtain. Blaine sees this, so he hops down, lays his championship belt down on the canvas and invites Preston into the ring. Preston then begins to slowly walk down to the ring. But he stops halfway. He smirks before wagging his finger at Blaine. He then slowly walks backwards up the aisle to boos from the crowd. But the boos soon turn to cheers once Blaine reaches down, snatches up his belt, climbs up onto the middle rope and raises his belt in the air.....
