Ceasefire
With last weeks Ultimate Victory II PPV behind him, an ecstatic “Beautiful” Bobby Dean makes his way down the hall back towards his designated dressing room, with the Las Vegas title strapped around his waist, the tag team title slung over one shoulder and the newly acquired International title slung over his other shoulder. Pushing the door open the first ugly mug Bobby sees is the scowling visage of his sports agent Jeremiah Sloan.
With a shake of his head Sloan says, “Well now you’ve gone and done it haven’t you buddy?”
“I told you Jay,” Bobby says oozing confidence. “I told you all, my eyes were set and there wasn’t a thing Roscoe Shame could do about it…”
“Yeah well, now I’m forced to make a decision.” Sloan says as if it were obvious. “You really think I can continue to manage you and Roscoe Shame after this debacle?”
“What!?” Bobby asks confused. “What are you talking about?”
“I told you Bobby,” Sloan explains. “By doing this you weren’t just buying yourself a title shot, you weren’t just driving a wedge in the Company, you were risking your entire career just for that strap hanging off your shoulder…”
“I don’t understand.” Bobby says. “Jay, what’re you saying?”
“I don’t know how much simpler I can make this Bobby,” Sloan says somberly. “I’ve got to make a choice on who I’m going to represent, and well I just don’t think I can rightfully turn my back on Roscoe Shame, especially after what you did to him last week.”
Speaking of Shame, Roscoe chooses that time to step into the room, a disappointed look on his face, but upon entering, Shame stops midst ride, eyeing Bobby Dean. He takes the three steps and finds himself eye to eye with the newly crowned International champion. After a tense minute or two Roscoe extends his hand.
“Last Week,” Roscoe begins, “The better man won.”
Bobby, a genuine grin, ear to ear, extends his own hand and shakes the former champions hand. But just as he’s about to pull his hand back, Roscoe tightens his grip and pulls the champion forward, leaning his head forward he whispers in the champions ear. “But watch your back Bobo, you’ve got a target painted on your ass, and I’m gunning for my title back!”
Bobby yanks his hand back and laughs. Roscoe takes a minute looking fierce, but in the ends shares in the laughter. Bobby throws his hands up and says, “Time to celebrate baby! Let’s get fucked up!”
“Wait. Wait. Wait just a minute,” ever the buzz kill, Jeremiah Sloan calls out. “You’re forgetting, they’ve already announced that you’re going to be squaring off against Colt Cooper tonight!”
Bobby mulls over that thought but doesn’t take but a second to do that before he’s back to laughing as he reaches into his locker and pulls forth a big bottle of champagne. Popping the cork Bobby Dean begins to shake the bottle up spraying Jeremiah, Roscoe and himself with the liquid as he celebrates his recent win as if it were game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals! Colt Cooper will just have to wait his turn.

Word of Mouth
Showdown heads backstage where Katie Smith is standing by with one of the sVo’s brightest prospects, Ace Diamonds who tonight takes on Grimnir after his impressive win last week at the Ultimate Victory II PPV over Johnny Stylez. Ace Diamonds looks to be in a confident mood with his match up next!
Katie Smith – ‘Last week you made an impressive first outing in an sVo ring. How did it feel to be apart of the sVo?’
Ace turns his had just so his left side of his face is showing. He takes a few more puffs from his Cigar before talking it out of his mouth and flicking it on the ground, where it rolls around for a little bit and than just stops as the darkness claims it.
Ace Diamonds – ‘Last week I beat Johnny Boy. It was so easy. Too easy in fact. Heck winning a Poker Tournament against a bunch of blind people would have been more of a challenge. You may ask me than why did you have such a hard time? Why didn’t you finish him right at the beginning? The answer my good friends is simple. I wanted to play with my prey before killing it. Nothing more, nothing less.’
Katie Smith – ‘Well this week you take on another newcomer, the masked Grimnir. Not much is known about this young superstar, apart from the fact that some insiders are tipping him to make a big impact here in the sVo. How do you feel about your opponent?’
Ace Diamonds – ‘Grimnir. Again what the hell? Grimnir. Is that the best name he can come up with. It is just as bad with Johnny adding a z at the end of his name. Okay it isn’t that bad but all the same these people need to think of something you know more clever, more worthy. I bet this man will not even go far. After he loses to me this week Grimnir like Johnny will fade into the darkness and never be seen or heard of again.’
Ace starts to chuckle.
Ace Diamonds – ‘You know what I don’t like saying Grimnir anymore. I am going to call you something that fits you a bit better. How about McDonalds favorite purple buddy. Grimmis.’
Ace Diamonds begins to chuckle again, but suddenly the interview is interrupted by the appearance of Victory Cup winner James Von Drake on the scene. Ace Diamonds doesn’t look too impressed with the interruption as Von Drake looks down on Diamonds with contempt.
James Von Drake – ‘Is this how low the sVo has sunk, we are now giving the likes of Ace Diamonds time on the mic? There used to be a time you had to be someone to have an opinion in this business, now it looks as if any old person can step in here and call themselves a star…’
Ace Diamonds doesn’t look too impressed with Von Drake’s cocky comments again, as he squares up to the Victory Cup winner.
Ace Diamonds – ‘That’s a bit rich, coming from someone who bottled the main event at the Ultimate Victory PPV last week….’
The fans cheer the comment, as it clearly cuts Von Drake deep as he stares down Ace Diamonds as the scene fades out, the tension in the atmosphere obvious to everyone.

Unknown – ‘Pat Fullam was dealt with, but we were very disappointed with your handling of the ‘Night’ situation….’
Anderson doesn’t answer for a few seconds, as he looks out at the action.
Matt Anderson – ‘It all hinged on the interference from the mystery masked man, none of us had any idea that was coming.’
There are murmurs from the Company members who don’t seem too pleased with Anderson’s management performance.
Unknown – ‘It’s your job to deal with variables such as that, I hope you are going to find this individual and deal with them.’
Matt Anderson – ‘It’s under control, we still have plan B. We will take Pat Fullam out of action for good tonight, and Night’s time is coming soon. Roscoe Shame now has the number one contendership, he is the top man in the sVo and there is no way that Night will be able to beat him.’

Real Ugly
KNOCK KNOCK!!!
{Ethan Rider stands at the home of Colt Cooper. He taps his feet waiting on Colt to open the door. After a few moments, the door swings open showing off Colt’s home. Like last week the things he put in there are there, but he’s completely painted his wall baby blue.}
“Man this is bright.” Ethan steps inside Colt’s home.
“You know how bright I am.” Colt gives Ethan a pat on the back.
“So…how you feeling about tonight?” Ethan says while jumping on Colt’s bed.
“I’m feeling perfected. Ready to endure whatever Bobby Dean will bring. Besides, I feel that this has been staged just for me. Let’s think about. I’m yet to lose a match, and this guy has three titles. Whatever water his opponents are drinking is not working. Now, my boss notices what specimen he has on his hands, and It couldn’t be long before he threw me into a match with someone of Dean’s caliber. I think it’s a test for me to see where I could be headed, but it’s a very big one, and one I won’t fail.” Colt mentions.
{Colt goes over to his refrigerator to grab a Red Bull.}
“You want one?” Colt flashes a Red Bull to Ethan, he nods his head no, and Colt shrugs closing the fridge.
“Man, you’re rising quick. You think if you were in the Ultimate Victory tourney you could’ve won?” Ethan ask.
“I haven’t really thought about it? I’m glad where I’m at now. I find myself in a Las Vegas Title match against the most dominant man in the company. When I beat him, I should no longer be looked at as Colt Cooper, I should be looked at as a champion.” Colt swallows down some of the Red Bull.
“You know if you win…there is at least three more rookies in the SvO gunning for that International title.” Ethan Rider says. Colt chuckles.
“I already know that, and will have to adjust to being a haunted man, but through all of it i’m pulling out. Tonight I have to complete what i’ve set out to do, can’t anybody hold me back from doing it. It’s about to get real ugly. Now if you would excuse me.”
{Colt drinks down the rest of the Red Bull. He gives Ethan one more look, and nods his head. He exits his home leaving the cameras fading out to Ethan Rider.}
Showdown #52 – 22nd August 2010
SINGLE MATCH
Night vs. The Crippler
Last Resort plays as Canadian Crippler comes out completely focused on the ring. He enters the ring and awaits the bell.
A whisper…
“I’m dreaming…”
The distant chords of Deftones’ “Knife Party” cut through the PA as the arena lights cut completely. The Tron sparks to life as the words “I’m dreaming…” float onto it. As the song errupts the words are replaced by one.
A name.
” N I G H T “
An explosion of purple light as a man in a black mask appears. At least, the mask appears black at first, but on closer inspection it appears to be made of the night sky. The mask does not entirely cover the man’s head and a head of black dreadlocks stream out, tracing the man’s jaw.
The man stands at the top of the entrance ramp – motionless for a moment, his stance elegant and mysterious, giving away nothing of his motives. As the music swirls away, the man only known as Night begins his walk to the ring – only, he doesn’t walk, it appears more of a graceful glide. Although he moves seemlessly, he moves deceptively quickly to the ring, sliding deliberately and headfirst into the ring.
Crippler stands across the ring from the sVo Champion and both men stare each other down as they await the bell to be rung and this one to get underway. Night hands the sVo World Championship belt to the outside of the ring, and the referee finally calls for the bell to be chimed and this one is up and running! Crippler and Night make their way towards each other in the middle of the ring and circle each other for a few seconds before trying up in the middle of the ring. Night tries to force Crippler back, however Crippler grabs his arm and twists it back behind his back in a wrist lock.

Crippler rises up to his feet, and is caught with some stiff chops across the chest from the sVo Champion, who backs Crippler into the corner of the ring. With Crippler in the corner, Night grabs him in a front face lock and tries to lift Crippler up onto the turnbuckle in position for a superplex! However Crippler counters with a knee to the midsection of his opponent, before tossing Night down to the mat with a double underhook suplex.
Night rises straight back to his feet, but Crippler is there again with a belly to back suplex on the Champion. Crippler rises to his feet and gives some stiff kicks to Night as he rises up to his feet. Crippler lays into Night with some stiff chops across the chest of the Champion which echoes around the arena, before he takes him down to the mat with a dragon screw takedown. With Night on the mat, Crippler locks his opponent into a knee bar submission hold to try and slow down the ring general and get full control of the match. Night tries his best to try and free himself from the submission move, but Crippler finally releases the hold and pulls Night up to his feet. Crippler backs Night into the corner with some stiff kicks to the midsection, before grabbing hold of his leg and placing it over the second rope.
