WRESTLEQUEST 1 SHIPMAN’S A MAN OF 101 HOLDS
Jason Stevens vs. Chris Shipman
Tex: Jason Stevens and Chris Shipman are set to take on each other in a submission match! This should be an exciting clash between the two!
Duff: No doubt, Tex, this is gonna be a fight on overdrive! Neither were willing to give each other an inch all week and this is the day where they will either put up or shut up! Let’s go to Stormy for the introductions!
The camera pans over to Stormy Canyon, who smiles as the fans roar for the match ahead. She brings up the microphone to her lips and speaks.
Stormy: This match is scheduled for one fall and it is a Submissions match! Introducing first, from the Georgian Backwoods, weighing at 235 lbs - CHRIS SHIPMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man That You Fear by Marilyn Manson blares over the speakers as the lights go out. Suddenly an eruption of pyro over the ramp creates a blast of light to see Shipman with a busted forehead and holding a barbed wire noose. The pyro dies as Shipman walks to the ring. He gets in, throws the noose to the floor and sits in the corner with an expressionless look as the music fades.
Duff: That face may remain expressionless for now, but wait until Jason comes into the ring!
Tex: Then it is a whole different story, but I highly doubt Jason fears the likes of Shipman, Duff, mad face or no mad face!
Stormy: Introducing his opponent, from Las Vegas, Neveda, weighing at 175 lbs, he is The Sensation.....JASON STEVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The oppening riff for "Halo" is herd over the PA, as soon as it Rob Flynn starts the opening verse Jason emerges from the back with his agent Marty McFarge not far behind him who is yelling into his cell phone, Carry reluctantly follows her brother and his agent obviously annoyed at having to endure Marty for the length of the match,, the fans boo Jason but he ignores them and walks down the ramp, he slides into the ring as Carry and Marty take up separate positions at ringside and Jason stares down Shipman, who finally gets up and gets into his face, both men exchanging words.
Tex: Things are about to get intense and away we go!
Within seconds, the two exchange fists this time, only for Shipman to knee Jason in the stomach before sending him to the mat with a vicious powerbomb. He quickly goes for a boston-crab, but Jason escapes the hold by turning around and blasting Shipman to the face with a vicious kick! As Shipman staggers, Jason kips-up back to his feet and lands a dropkick, sending Shipman out of the ring and into the canvas outside. Jason wastes no time in hitting the opposite ropes while Shipman gets back up, shaking it off. But he turns around and becomes the victim of a fast body splash, the crowd gasping. Both men are down, but Jason slowly gets up first, then picks up Shipman by the back of his head. He then tries to smash his opponent’s head into the steel steps, but Shipman elbows him in the face, then follows it up with a clothsline. He throws Stevens into the ring and rolls after him. He gets him in another Boston Crab and Stevens is screaming in agony, the referee trying to see whether or not he’s quitting. But Stevens is not giving up! Despite the pain, he slowly crawls his way over to the ropes and lands his left hand on the bottom rope. The referee tells Shipman to get off, which he does, but begins to kick down Stevens in the back, Stevens groaning in pain. Picking up Stevens, he throws him into the ropes and when he returns, he tries to go for another clothsline. But Stevens retaliates with a flying clothsline, surprising Shipman completely. Shipman staggers into the ropes and Stevens takes the time to try and dismantle him with a few solid martial arts kicks before ending the combo with a jumping, spinning heel kick. Shipman staggers forward and hits the mat with a hard thud. Stevens quickly goes for the STF and Shipman is now the one crying out in pain! Shipman is attempting to crawl forward, but gets stopped every now and then, due to the immense pain and tightness that Stevens is giving with the STF. But Shipman somehow makes it to the bottom rope and finally lands his right hand on the middle rope, gritting his teeth in pain. Stevens lets go and gets some revenge of his own, by kicking Shipman for a bit, like a stranger kicking a dog around. He then picks up Shipman and slaps him on the chest a few times before throwing him to the ropes and tries for a flying elbow. But Shipman rolls out of the way in time, Jason hitting nothing but air. The two men face each other and land some more shots, but Shipman kicks Jason in the gut before doing a russian-leg sweep! With Jason down on the ground, Shipman grabs Stevens’s legs and attempts another boston crab. This time, the pain was so intense that eventually Jason had to tap to the mat, the referee calling for the bell!
Tex: I guess Shipman’s determination won out against Stevens for this match.
Duff: But by no means is this rivalry far from done, Tex!
Stormy: Here is your winner, by submission - CHRIS SHIPMAN!
Shipman rolls out of the ring and walks up the ramp, then turns around and grins wickedly as Jason is on the mat, trying to recover the feeling in his legs as his sister gets into the ring and checks up on him. The scene fades away to a commercial.
Winner: Chris Shipman
FREEDOM BASH 2009 SHIPMAN’S HOUSE: UNSPEAKABLE VIOLENCE
Chris Shipman vs. Ryan Drac
The ringside bell goes off and we see the ring totally encapsulated in barbed wire. A steel cage hovers about 50 feet above the ring for now, also wrapped in barbed wire. Inside the ring are several weapons, such as baseball bats and steel chairs wrapped in barbed wire, amongst other things. Outside the ring, stands a ladder that’s laced with the same barbed wire as well. Stormy Canyon gets on the microphone from her ringside seat.
Stormy: The following contest is the Shipman’s House of Pain Match. The only way to win is to climb a ladder wrapped in barbed wire. The first man to stand on the top of the ladder will be declared the winner.
Man That you Fear by Marilyn Manson blares around the arena as Shipman walks towards the ring with the barbed wire noose around his neck and the cake and present in his hands.
Stormy Canyon: Making his way to the ring, from London now residing in the Georgian Backwoods.. CHRIIIISSSS SHHHHHIIIPPPMMMAAAANNN.
Shipman enters the barbed wire cell and grabs the microphone from Stormy.
Shipman: Hello Washington DC.
The crowd cheers.
Shipman: I'd figure since I'm in a gift giving mood tonight, I'd figure I'd give the AWA fans a gift. I am going to sing the national anthem of the greatest country in the world.
The fans cheer again as Shipman clears his throat. A classical theme plays in the background as fireworks explode from the ceiling and a gigantic Canadian flag falls from the rafters. The bottom of it just inches from the top of the cell.
Shipman:O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
The fans boo during the entire rendition as Shipman laughs when he finishes and bows as he hands the microphone back to Stormy
Stormy: And his opponent, making his AWA debut, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 225 pounds…Ryaaaan Draaaaac!!!
“Obsession†by Papa Roach hits as the ramp can be seen being covered in a light mist of smoke as Ryan Drac can be seen walking out onto the top of the ramp. Making his way down the ramp towards the ring, the light mist begins to turn blood red. As he climbs onto the ring apron, accidentally grabbing a hold of the barbed wire, he enters the ring his music slowly begins to fade as the mist circles the ring. As he prepares to take on his opponent the mist starts to fade as well. Ryan looks down at his hands as they have already felt the barbed wire.
Tex: Well, here comes the barbed wire steel cage and there is no way out of this now for Ryan Drac.
Duff: At least he’s choosing to earn his stripes and not backing away like a coward!
As soon as the cage is completely lowered, the bell at ringside is rung.
Duff: And away we go!!!
Tex: Ladies and gentlemen, as always, do NOT try this at home!
Shipman licks his chops in his corner before coming out of the corner, immediately going for a spear to Ryan Drac. Ryan however sidesteps disaster. Shipman is able to stop himself before his front side hits the barbed wire. He turns back around and stares across the ring at Ryan, mouthing out the words “You’re mine!†Shipman goes for a clothesline, but Ryan ducks it. By the time Shipman turns back around this time, Ryan has connected with a kick to Shipman’s temple, knocking him to the mat. Ryan picks up one of the three barbed wire baseball bats that are littered in the cage. He goes to strike Shipman with it, but Shipman doesn’t seem to mind. This makes Ryan scratch his head before he shrugs his shoulder. But that momentary lapse gives Shipman enough time to duck for cover. He rolls underneath the baseball bat shot and picks up a steel chair, now grinning from ear to ear. Showing no remorse he WHACKS Ryan Drac right across the back with it. Ryan screams out and goes right to the canvas. Shipman again licks his chops as he goes to unlock the cage door. He successfully does so and goes to retrieve the ladder. As he does so, Ryan gets back to his feet and waits for Shipman to return.
Tex: Well, the ladder is already being introduced and this can’t be good for Ryan Drac.
Duff: At least he’ll be able to say that he tried!
Tex: I guess you can put it that way.
Shipman sees that his hands are starting to bleed thanks to the barbed wire attached to the ladder. He grins even wider now as he tosses the ladder through the bottom and middle rope. He then clambers back into the cage…and locks the door behind him!
Tex: Anyone sane enough would have ran when they had the chance right there!
Duff: But not Shipman! He LOVES this atmosphere!
Tex: He’s just a sicko!
Duff: Nope! He’s our PSYCHO! Get it right.
Ryan intercepts the ladder and realizes that he needs to protect himself. He holds it horizontal and runs right at Shipman with it, pancaking Shipman into the side of the cage! The crowd gasps as Shipman’s body has a massive amount of cuts on it. Ryan however backs up and lunges at Shipman still with the ladder for a second time and for a second time the barbed wire ladder crushes against Shipman’s torso again!
Duff: NOW who’s the sicko?
Ryan tosses the ladder aside now and balls up his fist. He goes to corner Shipman against the ropes. Unfortunately for the newcomer, Shipman is not yet out of it and strikes with a low blow! Shipman slowly gets back to his feet, teetering quite a bit as he does so. Blood can already be seen pouring from his abdomen.
After the low blow, he grabs for Ryan Drac’s head and brings him over to the ropes. He drives Ryan’s face right into the ropes, opening him up with Snake Eyes. Ryan dances around in pain now holding his face. Shipman meanwhile just shakes his head as he comes from behind and clotheslines Ryan down to the canvas. It’s here that Shipman delivers a mudhole stomping that leaves Ryan out of breath. Shipman now points to the top rope and yells out the words “You know you all want to see the London Calling!â€
Tex: He’s calling for the end! Poor Ryan…
Duff: Oh please. You knew how this match was going to end. We all did.
But when Shipman goes to scoop up Ryan to bring him to the top rope, Ryan revives himself. He pushes Shipman away from him and goes to Irish whip him to the far corner. Shipman however blocks it and gets behind Ryan, flooring him back to the mat and locking on a half Boston Crab!!! Shipman wrenches it in as hard as he can. So much so that Ryan begins tapping out like mad.
Duff: Awww, too bad for Ryan that this match can’t end via submission!
Tex: No wonder why Chris loves this match so much…
Shipman just laughs maniacally as he finally lets Ryan’s leg go. Shipman sets up the ladder in one of the far corners of the ring before returning to Ryan Drac. This time Shipman’s able to scoop up the newcomer. He brings Ryan forcefully over to one of the turnbuckles. Shipman mounts the turnbuckle and gets Ryan up into jackhammer position.
Duff: He’s about to answer a call from London!!!
This time there is no way out and Shipman lets loose, connecting fully with the London Calling…unfortunately for Drac, Drac’s back lands right on a folded up barbed wire steel chair! Drac’s body bounces a few feet into the air as we can see a few chunks of what looks like to be flesh off of Drac’s body!
Tex: Oh good lord!!! We might not see Ryan Drac after tonight!!!
Duff: No loss…
Shipman looks down at his victim, again shaking his head. Shipman looks now to the ladder and simply climbs all the way to the top rung. The moment that he gets there Ryan begins to stir, but it is too late as Chris already has the match won. The bell rings and “Man That You Fear†begins to play.
Stormy: Here is your winner…Chriiiis Shipmaaaaaaan!!!
Chris stays atop the ladder as EMTs begin to rush down from the back to assist Ryan Drac. A couple beg for Shipman to come down too to receive medical attention, but he waves them off, instead celebrating his latest victory in the hell that he created.
Tex: Thank GOD that is over with.
Duff: Boooo… I wanted more.
The barbed wire steel cage has already risen up and the barbed wire is being cut away from the ring ropes as the scene fades to backstage where we spot the returning Black Bone…
winner: Chris Shipman
WRESTLEQUEST IV: A SHOT AT THE WORLD
Chris Shipman vs. Sergio vs. Michael Andrews vs. Fang
Stormy: The following contest is scheduled to be a Fatal Fourway Ladder Match!!! And it will be for the Universal Championship!!! The first contestant that is able to climb the ladder and grab hold of the championship wins and becomes the NEW Universal Champion!!!
Tex: I can’t wait to see what West has got planned for the newly crowned champion on the first Insomnia!!
Duff: I still can’t believe that it did happen!! Goth and West?? Working together??
Stormy: The first wrestler to come down the aisle stands in at 6’0 and weighing in at 213 pounds!! Hailing from Virginia Beach, Virginia!!! Michael Andrews!!
Not Again by Staind starts to play and the crowd explodes. The fans eagerly await Michael Andrews as a figure steps out from the backstage. There is a small kid dressed in his usual attire that steps into the middle of the stage and waves insanely to the crowd. The crowd dies down a little and seems confused. Words start to flash across the big screen. (When I came here, this is what I was. I am perceived as the star struck kid that looks to the sky and dreams of it all. With your all of your help and support...) Smoke fills the stage and you see the silhouette of the kid slowly change into that of a man. The music stops and then explodes into the opening cords of Awake and Alive by Skillet. (THIS IS WHAT I AM!) The smoke blows away as pyro hits and you see Michael Andrews emerge as the music hits the chorus. He is wearing his tan long coat, tan pants, dark brown boots and black sunglasses. He faces his back to the crowd as he walks backwards and there is a big dark brown superman symbol on the back of his long coat. The crowd goes insane and get to there feet. He faces back around and runs for the ring and slides under the ropes. He jumps to his feet and he holds his arms high yelling the words, “I did and so can you!†He moves from turnbuckle to turnbuckle holding his hands high and searching the crowd. As the music dies down he hands his coat and sunglasses over to the ref and starts to prepare for his match.
Stormy: His opponent!! Standing in at 6’0 and weighing in at 220 pounds!! Hailing from Long Pond, PA!!!! FANG!!!
The arena goes dark, the cross of the wolf appears on the Titantron. This is gonna hurt begins to blare over the P.A. system The Arena is bathed in red light and then a large flash of white pyros explodes. The arena is then bathed in intense white light the stage entrance is bathed in even more almost unbearable to look at white light. A sillouhette appears in the center of the entrance way. The lights return to normal and the Man in Black, Fang is standing there in his ring gear. Look looks out the the crowd with disdain on his face. He points to the ring and the charges at it full speed. He slides under the bottom rope and hops up to a standing position as more pyrotechnics go off around the ring. Fang hits his chest with his hands and raises his arms above his head. The crowd boos loudly. Fang just waits the match to begin.
Stormy: Their opponent!! Standing in at 6’5 and weighing in at 290 pounds!! Hailing from Long Beach, California!!! Sergio!!
“You’ve Got Another Thing Coming†begins to play through the sound system as orange lights illuminate the stage. During the opening guitar riff, Sergio makes his way to the stage. He pauses, looks around at the crowd, then Sergio slowly raises his arms until they’re even with his shoulders. He then make his way to the ring. Once he gets to the ring, the lights begin to alternate between orange and red. He climbs onto the apron, steps through the ropes, climbs onto the second turnbuckle, sticks his arms out again, then lowers them as he slaps his right hand on his chest. Sergio takes off his tank top and throws it out of the ring, then jumps down from the turnbuckle, waiting for the match to begin.
Stormy: And their final opponent!! Standing in at 6’3 and weighing in at 235 pounds!! Hailing from the Georgian Backwoods!!! Chris Shipman!!!
The lights in the arena turn red as Raining Blood begins blaring. A red liquid begins falling from the ceiling at the entrance way. Soon Casey Anthony appears with a doll. She rips it in half and tosses it into the crowd as Shipman emerges from behind the curtain and stands in the rain as he stares at the crowd and the ring. They slowly walks to the ring with the expressionless looks. He enters and the lights go to normal to show Shipman covered in the red liquid staring into the crowd and doing a "Praise Me/Raven" pose as the music fades. He gives Casey a kiss before she exits the ring and stands outside with her massive arms across her chest.
Tex: Let’s get it on!!!
The bell rings as Fang charges in on Sergio, while Shipman and Andrews are trading blows. Shipman grabs the hair of Andrews as he ducked a clothesline and yanks him down to the canvas with authority. He then drops several elbows to the chest area of Andrews, before rolling out of the ring and grabbing Andrews by the legs and pulling him to the ring post.
Duff: That got to hurt!!!
Shipman wants to wrap the legs of Andrewws around the ring post and slam one of them into the ring post. He manages to do so one time, but the second time he gets surprised. Andrews manages to pull his legs to him, causing Shipman to hit the ring post hard with his face. We can see him stagger backwards while holding on to his face, we can see blood emerge from between his fingers. Clearly signalling something broke or busted open
Tex: That got to be his nose!!!
Andrews rolls out of the ring and dropkicks Shipman into the ringside security railing. Andrews then signals to the crowd as we see him charge into Shipman, he jumps over him and grabs his head and pulls his head back as he rolls through over the railway. This causes the neck to hit the railing hard as Andrews lands sitting down in the crowd of Madison Square Garden (same move that Mr. Perfect used to do in the ring, but then to the front instead from the back)
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!!!
Tex: I have never seen anyone do a move like that before!!
Andrews landed hard on the concrete, one of his legs landed on the folding chairs of the fans who jumped out of the way at the final moment. He tries to get to his feet and limps over towards the guardrail before getting back to the ringside area. Inside the ring we see Sergio getting the better of Fang, he blocks a few punches and delivers some mighty right hands of his own. Sergio then delivers a big time boot to the face of Fang, before setting him up for a slam and drives Fang spine first into the canvas. Sergio goes to the outside and is the first to grab a ladder, he slides it in the ring and is about to get in the ring when suddenly Fang delivers a baseball slide to the ladder. Causing it to hit Sergio in the chest as he walks up to the ring apron. This causes him to fall hard against the security railing. We can see Fang setting up the ladder in the middle of the ring as he wants to climb the ladder. Just as he is halfway the ladder, he gets grabbed by the feet by Andrews. He climbs the ladder with him and grabs him by the waist before executing a Backsuplex off the ladder. Causing both men to land hard on their backs.
Duff: HOLY SHIT!!! Did you see that???
Tex: Did I ever!!!
Andrews gets to his feet slowly, limping still from his bac landing. He grabs the ladder and tosses it over the body of Fang as he hobbles to the ropes. When he gets off the ropes he is about to execute an aerial assault on the ladder, but gets surprised by Shipman who delivers a big time clothesline. Shipman stands there, bloodied mess and all as his nose seems to be broken indeed. Blood is pouring from his nose as he grabs the ladder and lifts it up and jams it straight into the midsection of Fang. Who has gotten to his feet. Fang falls to the outside as we see Sergio climb the ring apron again. Shipman sees him, he throws him the ladder as Sergio catches it and Shipman goes for a spear. But Sergio sidesteps and drives the ladder into the back of Shipman as Shipman is being caught between the middle and top rope. Shipman drops to the outside as Sergio gets back in the ring. He sees Andrews on his hands and knees, trying to get back to his feet. Sergio blasts the ladder in his back before setting it up in the middle of the ring as he wants to get to the title
Tex: Will it be Sergio’s time?? NO!!!!
Sergio tries to get up the ladder when suddenly Fang grabs him in a Sleeper hold and then jumps on the back of Sergio and wraps his legs around the midsection of Sergio. Putting all of his pressure on his back and pulling the oxygen out of his body with the choke hold. Sergio somehow decides to climb the ladder with the 220 pound man on his back. They are half way when suddenly we see Shipman emerge from underneath the ring. He has grabbed a kendo stick and blasts it into the back of Fang. Who screams it out in agonizing pain before the balance being disturbed. He still holds on to Sergio in the choke hold, causing Sergio to lose balance as well. Both men fall backwards, causing Sergio to fall on top of Fang. Shipman stares around him, unaware that Andrews has slipped in the ring with a steel chair. Just as Shipman turns around he is caught by a big brain buster of a chair shot that sends him backwards on the ring. Andrews sees that the ladder has fallen to his side, his hip is bothering him as he limps over to it. He sets up the ladder in the corner as he climbs the ladder and sits on top of it.
Tex: What is he doing? He could have climbed the ladder to grab the belt!!
Duff: Don’t know Tex, I’m just as surprised!!
Andrews suddenly points at the sky and then sets himself up as he turns his back to his opponents and goes off for a Moonsault, he lands on top of Fang and Sergio as he is rolling around in agonizing pain as he landed ackwardly
Duff: What an idiot!! He could have won!! But no!!!!
Tex: I got to agree that it was a stupid move!!! And look at Shipman!!!
Shipman is slowly starting to move as he gets to his feet, he stares at the championship belt and spits some blood at the camera. He decides enough is enough and he sets up the ladder. The ladder is not stable anymore from the falling and landing as Shipman slides out of the ring and grabs a new ladder. He slides it in the ring and sets it up as he slowly starts to climb the ladder. All of the sudden we can see Fang that starts to stir, apparently he did not get the big blow from Andrews as Andrews ever wanted. He gets to his feet before climbing the ladder from the other side and the two finally get to the top where both men are trading blows. Meanwhile both Sergio and Andrews get to their feet slowly, Sergio is coughing blood indicating internal bleeding. Andrews is almost an cripple as he is unable to keep balance. Sergio charges in on Andrews and drops him hard with a Back Suplex. He then turns around and sees Fang headbutting Shipman. This causes him to fall backwards into the waiting arms of Sergio. Who then delivers a Spine Buster and completely wipes out the Reverend. Sergio looks up and charges in on the ladder, pushes it so it falls down as well as Fang. Sergio has had enough, he sets up the ladder and starts to climb it. The big massive frame is barely able to climb on it real fast as he is holding on to his stomach with one arm. He is taking a few deep breaths as Andrews is slowly getting to his feet. He gets to the ladder as well as they both climb it. We can see Shipman stir slowly
Tex: How Shipman is moving is beyond me
Duff: He’s sadistic!!!
Both Andrews and Sergio have reached the top of the ladder. Sergio grabs the belt, so does Andrews. Both men are trading blows with the other arm as suddenly Shipman starts to push the ladder. Suddenly the ladder falls as Sergio and Andrews both hold on to the championship belt as they are hanging high in the air.
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!!
Andrews wraps his legs around Sergio, Sergio retaliates with giving headbutts. But they are still hanging on the championship belt as the cord that they are hanging on starts to be sweeping from left to right. We can see Fang slowly getting to his feet and starts to deliver a Fatal Shot on Shipman, who did not know that Fang was up to his feet again. Shipman is out cold as Fang sets up the ladder, he is in the corner as he is staring at the two men in the air. He only sees Sergio as Andrews is much smaller and on the other side. Fang climbs the ladder and jumps off towards Sergio. He jumps and manages to grab his legs.
Tex: This can’t go right!! Three men!!
The belt is hanging with two men holding on to it!! One man holding on to one of the two!!! I see accidents and injuries being sustained big time!!!Shipman gets to his feet and sees what is going on. He sets up the ladder and gets out of the ring to set up a table. He then puts the table in the ring and climbs the ladder. He then grabs Fang by the feet and punches him hard on the back. This causes Fang to let go off Sergio and Shipman then delivers a Back Suplex that sends Fang through the table. This causes Sergio to let go off the belt with one hand. Andrews starts to kick Serrgio and this causes the big man to finally let go and fall on top of Shipman as Andrews somehow manages to get his feet on the ladder for balance. Causing him to stop sweeping around with the belt. He gets his balance and then manages to get the belt from the sky and holds it tight against his chest as his music starts to play
Tex: HE did it!!! What a gruelling match!!!
Stormy: The winner of the match!!! And NEW!!! UNIVERSAL CHAMPION!!! MICHAEL ANDREWS!!!
Andrews is holding on to the belt as he is having tears running down his face. He slowly climbs the ladder as he celebrates with the fans as the show comes to an end
Winner: Michael Andrews
W.A.R (Wrestlers are Revolting) DARK DAYS AHEAD?
Shane West vs. Chris Shipman
The broadcast returns into the arena to see that for the second time tonight a cage surrounds the ring. The cameras turn to the announce table where Tex is already speaking to those watching around the world.
Tex: Well, we’ve come to it. It’s the main event, and just how we opened the night here in Greece, we are about to go through a House of Fun match. Though this one is MUCH different from the first one earlier tonight.
Duff: This one is Shipman’s sick and twisted invention. That being said…I do like it. But to stick our Universal Champion inside this Satanic structure? I don’t know how Goth is going to allow this match to happen!
Tex: For once it’s not Goth’s choice to make. The wrestlers themselves were responsible for ALL the stipulations that we’ve seen here tonight. They’ve made their own beds so to speak, and I’ve loved this concept. It really levels out the playing field.
Duff: That’s a load of crap Tex and you know it! This is Shipman’s environment!
As Duff says this, The opening piano to “Sweet Dreams†by Malaria begins to play all over the arena as the lights turn to a cloudy red. Once the song kicks in Shipman appears from behind the curtain as the stage has bright red strobe lights going off. He walks to the ring with Synn who has also come out from the backstage area, following close behind. Once they get to the ringside area, Chris holds the barbed wire noose above his head before launching it high into the air, high enough for it to land on top of the barbed wire hell in a cell cage. Shipman taunts the crowd a bit as the lights go back to normal. Synn holds a spot at the far side of the cage, admiring the sadistic structure as the door to the cage is opened by a referee. Shipman slides into the ring and admires his surroundings before hungrily looking toward the stage, awaiting his opponent as his music dies out.
Tex: We wait now for the champion. Once Shane is loaded in that door will be locked and one last roll of barbed wire will be applied to the door.
Duff: Too bad for Shipman that West won’t succumb to this. He’s walking in the Universal Champion and he’ll be walking out as it as well!
The lights go out, and a strobe starts flashing, as the words "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, AND ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE" hit the loudspeakers. Shane West steps from behind the curtain, stopping at the top of the rampway, he pats his chest a few times and flashing his arrogant smirk to the crowd who begin jeering. He laughs at their reaction, and just shakes his head in a condescending manner, blowing off the people he once embraced. Shipman doesn’t take his eyes off Shane. Shane stands at the top of the rampway as pyrotechnics go off, red in color. He talks smack with a few fans on the way to the ring, visibly without the AWA Universal Championship. A camera pans up to the ceiling of the hell in a cell cage wrapped in barbed wire and spots the Universal Championship belt hanging from the center of it. Dangling from off the roof of the cage also is a rope ladder that also has barbed wire wrapped around it and on the sides of the cage, weapons that will be legal for the duration of the match. Shane doesn’t look at Shipman or the structure but stares intently to where the belt is at as he finishes his journey to the ringside area. Shane rolls in through the open door and the door is locked immediately and the last roll of barbed wire is attached to the cage door. The two referees stay outside the cage, each positioning themselves on opposite sides of the cage to watch the proceedings. Shipman licks his chops as he looks over at Shane. Shane stays calm, but both of their attentions are diverted as Stormy Canyon makes formal introductions.
Stormy: Ladies and gentlemen…this is YOUR main event of the evening! Whoever is first able to climb the barbed wire rope ladder that dangles from the cage’s roof and unhook the Universal Title belt from the roof of the cage will be the AWA Universal Champion!
The crowd cheers briefly before Stormy introduces the two wrestlers that are already in the battleground.
Stormy: Introducing first, the challenger, originally from West London, weighing in at 235 pounds…Chriiiis Shipmaaaaaan!!! And his opponent, he is currently the AWA Universal Champion…weighing in at 220 pounds…Shaaaane West!!!
The crowd lays the boos on thick for the member of the Family. With the opening business now finished, Shipman doesn’t wait any longer as he throws himself in Shane’s direction, throwing Shane for a loop. Shane quickly gathers himself and goes to deliver a haymaker to the jaw of Shipman. Shipman sidesteps the attempt and bends at the knees before scooping up Shane and delivering a fast scoop slam, putting him on the canvas. Shipman smirks now as he partially stands up and points to one of the sides of the cage.
Duff: This maniac is thinking of doing things to Shane already? How disrespectful!
Tex: I’m not saying I’m a Shipman fan here Duff, but the Family has never done respectful things either. I dare you to name one…
Duff: That doesn’t matter. You actually condone this?
Tex doesn’t answer as Shipman gets up to his feet and chooses to whip Shane into one of the sides of the cage. Shane however has recovered enough though and is able to hold his ground. Shane reverses and goes to whip Shipman into the side of the cage. Shipman does get Irish whipped but is able to slow up his momentum enough to avoid contact with the cage and thus the barbed wire…for now. Shipman turns towards West to see that West has set up for a spinning heel kick. Shipman ducks and West gets nothing but the air. After the miss, Shipman plows right into West and mounts him, beginning to whale away on the champion.
After a short while he dismounts, but doesn’t allow West the time to recuperate. He brings West halfway up to his feet and then throws him head first into the cage. West feels the coldness of the steel and then via his facial expression we can tell that he’s caught some of the barbed wire. As West stumbles away from that side of the cage his left arm begins to bleed.
Tex: The first casualty in this match…Shane’s left arm!
Duff: Again, I can’t believe you’re enjoying this. This isn’t what wrestling is all about. This is just Shipman’s sick and perverted fantasy!
Tex: Perverted? Really Duff?
Duff: YES! You heard what I said!
Shane shakes his arm out but again Shipman shows no remorse. He again heads towards West and spears him into one of the perpendicular cage walls. Shane groans out in pain and Shipman backs up with his arms raised, licking his chops even more. Shipman sees that West is injured now and his eyes light up. He turns behind him and yanks down a barbed wire wrapped baseball bat as the hardcore fans in the crowd begin to cheer loudly. Even though the barbed wire begins to slice its way into Shipman’s hands, he doesn’t seem to mind seeing his own blood as he runs at West and blasts him in the back of the head with the baseball bat. West goes face first into the steel of the cage. After he falls backwards and down to the mat, he writhes in agony and rolls over and over as Shipman looks up to the AWA Universal Championship belt. He goes right to the barbed wire rope ladder and leaps up. He sways in mid-air from the bottom rung, unable to sturdy himself right away. This gives West the time to recover and slowly work his way to his feet.
Tex: West has taken ALL of the punishment so far in this main event here tonight.
Duff: Come on Shane, make this hardcore fiend pay!
Shipman looks to see that West is up so he hops down from the rope ladder, with his hands immersed in his own blood thanks to the barbed wire. Shipman goes to clothesline West, but this time West is the one that’s able to duck. Shipman turns back around but it’s now that West seems to be a little rejuvenated. West takes to the air and goes for a spinning heel kick, which actually catches the challenger right on the jaw. Shipman stumbles backwards towards a cage wall. He tries to stop his backwards momentum but can’t and the back of his head is forced right into a barbed wire wrapped steel chair. Shipman begins to immediately attempt to get away from it, but West is smart enough to come right over and use the extra barbed wire hanging from the steel chair. He begins to strangle Shipman with the barbed wire as the crowd boos. West no longer pays attention to his own bleeding hands, but instead concentrates on incapacitating Shipman.
Shipman however keeps struggling until he’s finally able to low blow West with his knee, forcing West backwards. Shipman untangles himself than frees the steel chair from the side of the cage. He begins whacking away on West with it relentlessly. West eventually goes to the canvas to try and cover up, but Shipman has none of it. He places the barbed wire wrapped steel chair right across the back of West and then begins to stomp a mudhole into Shane’s back. Shane can feel the barbed wire and is again wincing like crazy. Shipman finally does stop and sees that West will definitely have a hard time getting up now, so he goes back for the rope ladder. Shipman again leaps up to the bottom rung then slowly and systematically begins to go up the rungs. West rolls over completely in pain, looking up at the lights. Out of the corner of his eye it’s clear that he can see Shipman going for the belt.
Duff: Wait! Shane’s getting up!
Tex: Somehow, someway…
Duff: It’s because he’s the rightful AWA Universal Champion! It’s sad that you can’t even see that Tex!
Tex: Hey, if West retains here tonight, I’ll give the Family Devil his due. He will have definitely earned it.
Duff: Which he will! Here he comes for the rope ladder!
West indeed hops onto the opposite side of the rope ladder and ignoring the jaggedness of the barbed wire penetrating his skin, West goes as quick as he can up the rope ladder and is able to catch up with Shipman. The two begin to trade punches, making sure that they hold onto the rope ladder with one hand. The two stalemate at this, that is until Shane goes for an eye gouge. This causes Shipman to lose his balance on the rope ladder. Shipman however does reach back with his punching arm and grabs West by his other arm. The two fall right straight down to the canvas, both very bloody now as the hardcore fans again are up at arms cheering themselves hoarse.
Tex: Good grief! They both have to be dead!
Duff: They’re not dead. Although I wish Shipman was…
Both men lay down on the canvas for quite some time, the referees unable to do anything on the outside of the structure except for watch. Finally though Shipman does begin to rise. He’s the first to his feet with ease and he looks over to Shane. He plucks West off the canvas and drags him over to a corner. He mounts him onto the top of the turnbuckle before pushing his back again into the steel and barbed wire. Shipman then climbs to the top and begins to set West up for a familiar maneuver. Shipman raises one of his arms and grins sadistically before he goes to deliver the London Calling. In mid-air though West is able to grab onto Shipman’s head. By the time the two are ready to crash to the mat, West has the momentum and is able to spike Shipman’s head with the Prime Example!
Duff: WOW! What a reversal!!! That’s why Shane West is the best! That’s why Shane West is our champion!
Tex: Wow…
West feels the effects too of the crash on the canvas but begins to slowly get up. For the first time in the match West is smiling as he looks down at the fallen challenger. West raises his arms for the Greek crowd as they boo like crazy. West ignores them however and heads for the rope ladder. He hops up to the bottom rung and like before begins to shimmy up the barbed wire wrapped rope ladder, all the while getting closer and closer to retaining his championship. As West nears the top, somehow down below Shipman is beginning to stir. He pulls himself to his feet by usage of the nearest set of ropes and then sees the situation. With haste Shipman hops up onto the bottom rung of the rope ladder, shaking it and stopping West from climbing. As soon as the shaking stops however West gets up two more rungs leaving him three rungs from the top. Shipman does his best to catch up but soon West is right at the top. West looks back down at Shipman and now is the one to lick HIS chops. West actually goes DOWN a rung on the ladder and then with his left leg, he punts Shipman right in the cranium. Shipman does his best to maintain his position on the ladder as West goes back again for the championship. Shipman shakes out the cobwebs and comes after him, but by the time Shipman gets towards the top, West begins unhooking the championship belt from the ceiling of the cage. Shipman gets up another rung, but it’s too late as West unhooks it and then welcomingly plunges down to the mat below. As his back crashes against it, West hugs the AWA Universal Championship closely as the bell sounds. Shipman remains up on the rope ladder, not able to believe what just happened.
Duff: YES! YES, YES, YES!!!!!!!
Stormy: Here is your winner and STILL AWA Universal Champion…..Shaaane West!
The Athens crowd is fully booing as Shipman now begins to somberly climb back down the rope ladder. As Shane sees this he doesn’t stick around. He goes to the door of the cage and asks for a referee to open the door, which he does. Shane rolls out and heads right up the wrestler ramp. He only stops once he gets to the stage. He stares down at Shipman as he holds the AWA Universal Championship high above his head. Shipman seethes now, knowing that he might not get another chance at the big prize, at least for quite a while.
The cameras refocus on the bloody, battered and bruised champion as Wrestlers Are Revolting begins to slowly fade to black on the current scene…
Winner: Shane West<>
FULL THROTTLE 4: THE NIGHT THE LINE WAS CROSSED
Raining Blood by Slayer begins blaring over the speakers as an impromptu visit form Shipman is about to happen. HE emerges with a thining Iris on the barbed wire leash and carrying the urn. He is dressed in black boots, jeans, and a shipman shirt. As he gets closer to the ring some PETA members in the crowd throw pails of "blood" on him. He just laughs as security escorts them out of the building. Shipman proceeds to get in the ring and has a huge smile as he grabs the microphone from Stormy.
Shipman: Hello ladies and gentlemen. Let me get straight to the point here. For a bit now I have been saying that I have a huge surprise in store for tonight, one that will affect not just Bill but the entire AWA. No I am not retiring. See the last little bit I have been searching for someone. And I found that someone. Probably the only person in this whole world that could love a man like me. Yes I have a new girlfriend and last week she got her manager's license. But who could she be? Sapphira? Lupe? Toxic Angel? No this person hasn't been in the AWA but is someone you all know. So without further delay, let me introduce my grilfriend and manager.......CASEY ANTHONY.
Girls Just Want to Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper begins blaring as an obvious Casey imposter walks out from behind the curtain carryign a doll. She is a lil more beefed up then the original. As she gets half way down the ramp, she rips the doll's head off and throws the pieces into the crowd. She gets to the ring and kisses Shipman similiar to and Edge/Lita kiss. She smiles at her man as he begins to talk to the fans who are in shock.
Shipman: Together me and my baby here will take over the AWA and there is no one who can stop us.
Casey whispers something in Shipman's ear and he smiles.
Shipman: That is a good idea. Before we go, I have a quick message for Bill and Lupe.
Shipman slams the microphone down and grabs the urn. He opens it and dumps out a small pile of ashes near the middle of the ring. He removes his t-shirt revealing a wife-beater. He then climbs to the top rope and splashes the pile of ashes. When he gets up his shirt and the canvas have smear stains form the ashes as Shipman and Casey laugh. Raining Blood begins blaring as Shipman and Casey kiss again and leave to the backstage area.
Bill Barnhart vs. Chirs Shipman
Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is our special Cement Truck Match!!!
The audience goes nuts as we see a cement truck on the parking lot, next to it we see a container completely filled with Cement and high above it we see a Scaffold containing Iris and the Urn of Bill Barnhart JR.
Stormy: The first wrestler to come down the aisle stands in at 6’0 and weighs in at 240 pounds!! He is accompanied to the ring by Lupe!!! Bill Barnhart!!!
TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS by Bachman-Turner Overdrive hits the speakers. The TRON crackles to life and we see a collage of video clips of Bill Barnhart performing in wrestling matches. We see Bulldog Bill Barnhart step through the curtains followed by wearing a hot pink short dress and top. Bill walks confidently along the entrance walkway and under the TRON. As he walks under the TRON, pink and white pyros erupt around him on both sides of the entrance walkway and also from the TRON above which cascade sparks down around him and Iris. The crowd goes into a mostly negative reaction to the arrival of Bill Barnhart. After a few moments he takes off with a quick pace to the ring with Lupe casually walking to the ring. When Bill arrives at the ring he steps through the ropes into the ring. Bill then opens up the ropes for Lupe as she gets in. He then walks around the ring to acknowledge all the people in the crowd and he maintains his huge smile all the time although the crowd is booing him for his bad turn. Bill then takes up residence in a corner to await the arrival of his opponent.
Tex: The smile will soon vaporize when Shipman shows his face
Duff: He’s a fun guy to be around with.
Tex: Are you serious???
Stormy: And his opponent!! Standing in at 6’3 and weighing in at 235 pounds!! Hailing from Georgian Backwoods!!! The King of Violence!! Reverend Chris Shipman!!!!
The lights in the arena turn red as Raining Blood begins blaring. A red liquid begins falling from the ceiling at the entrance way. Soon Shipman emerges from behind the curtain and stands in the rain as he stares at the crowd and the ring. He slowly walks to the ring with the expressionless look. He enters and the lights go to normal to show Shipman covered in the red liquid staring into the crowd and doing a "Praise Me/Raven" pose as the music fades.
Tex: Where’s his friend?
Duff: Don’t tell me you got the hots for her? I always knew you were into the muscular women
Tex: Why don’t you be quiet??
Duff: Can’t do sir, got a job to do
Bill charges in on Shipman, attacking him with rage and anger. Pounding away on the back of his neck and back before whipping him face first into the canvas and starts to rub his face into it. Bill then starts to kick him in the back before going for an elbow drop and driving it down the lower part of Shipman’s spine. He then grabs Shipman’s face and drives his knee into the spine, pulling back on his face,p>Tex: I haven’t seen Bill this vicious and angry in ages!!!
Duff: It’s the nature of the Bulldog, he’s just a rabid dog.
Tex: Useless information once again
Bulldog starts to scream at Shipman to give up, but the referee tells him that the way to win is to climb the scaffold and retrieve that what is important. Bill then drops Shipman face first onto the canvas and then stands on top of his face with all of his weight, jumping upwards and wanting to drop his knee on top of the neck of Shipman, but Shipman manages to roll away. Causing Bill to hit his knee hard on the canvas, rolling around in pain as Lupe holds her hands before her face in shock. Shipman immediately takes advantage and grabs the bad wheel, lifting the leg in the air and drives series of elbows to the thigh area of Bill before locking him in a leg grapevine of some sorts.
Duff: Great tactic of Shipman, you can’t climb a ladder with a bad wheel!!!
Tex: At least it will take you a longer time and what about balancing yourself on that scaffold?
Shipman stands up and kicks the bad knee several times before dragging Bill to the corner and locks his leg around the steel ring post and locks him in a figure four leg lock type move. Bill is screaming in agonizing pain, trying to grab the ropes in the hopes that the referee will break it. But seeing that it is a hardcore match the referee can’t do a single thing but just watch. Lupe turns around to the corner that it is happening and starts to plead with Shipman, who only spits at her. Causing the wife of Barnhart to go nuts, she takes off her left shoe with high heels and then starts to stab his face with it. She then stabs Shipman in the chest, causing blood to emerge from his face and chest. This causes Shipman to let go off the hold and turns his attention towards Lupe
Tex: Uh oh….
Duff: She asked for it!!! She should just have minded her own business, but NO!!! typical women!!!
Shipman chases Lupe around the ring, giving Bill the chance to free himself from the corner and awaits Shipman. When Lupe suddenly trips and Shipman stands above her it gives Bill the chance to grab him by the head and delivers a Bulldog Headlock on the concrete floor. This to much happiness of the fans as Bill slowly gets up with a painful look on his face, clearly because of his bad leg. He then grabs Shipman and starts to punch his face several times, causing his face to bleed even more. Bill wipes some of the blood of Shipman off on his chest, before dragging him to the entrance way. Bill suddenly stops as he sees the big screen with Shipman’s face on it. He then turns to stare at his opponent and then lifts him up and hoists him on his shoulder. Clearly wanting to drive Shipman’s face into the big screen. But when he does it is Shipman that manages to slip the hold and grabs the waist of Bill and charges forward. Causing both men to run into the huge Titan Tron. We can see electricity explode as both men are seemingly motionless as the explosion has subsided. The crowd is going into a Holy Shit chant when suddenly we see Shipman stir a bit and we see his bloodied face smile as he stares at his opponent, his chest has some minor burn marks from the explosion. But the insane one ignores it as he starts to stumble and crawl towards the back of the arena, heading to the parking lot where the price of both men is awaiting their arrival
Duff: WOW THAT WAS SICK!! Even for Shipman’s standards, that was just….
Duff can’t finish his sentence as he turns and vomits into the front row of fans. A lady gets mad as her husband grabs Duff and warns him. We can see Lupe help her man to his feet and helps him go after Shipman as he can lean on her for support. The camera’s go backstage where we see Shipman stumble forward a corner and seems to be talking to someone. Then we see Bill emerge after a few moments and the sight of Shipman somehow manages to infuriate Bill as he charges in on Shipman. Somehow he has found a surge of strength and bashes the head into the concrete wall where he stood and was talking to someone. Bill then grabs Shipman and sets him up for a Suplex on the concrete floor, just when he lifts him up in the air he waits a few moments and then drops Shipman on his back. Causing Shipman to scream in agonizing pain. Bill gets up and then grabs Shipman, lifting him to his feet and aims him to send him face first into the glass window of one of the cars that is present. He slams him face first into the car window and the leaves him hanging. He has his eyes set for the ladder and climbs towards the scaffold. When suddenly….
Tex: What the?
Suddenly the imposter Casey Anthony attacks Bill from behind. Grabbing him by the arms and delivers a Razor’s Edge type move. Dropping Bill hard on the concrete as we see hif head bounce off the ground. Bill is holding on to his head as we see blood pouring from his skull as the monster girlfriend stands on top of him. We see Shipman grab Barnhart and lock him in a pinning combination as the referee slaps his hand on the concrete for the count of three and calls for the bell
Stormy: The winner of this match!!! Chris Shipman!!!!
The Cement Truck match is over and Chris Shipman has pulled off a victory but he surely received more damage to his body in the process. Shipman and Barnhart climb up the ladder and they are on the platform which is above the location where both Iris and the Urn containing the ashes of Bill Barnhart Junior are located. Shipman and Barnhart face each other and since both of them have a mic with them and we listen to their conversation.
TEX: What decision do you think Chris Shipman will make here?
DUFF: He has several choices for sure. He can save Iris and let Bill Barnhart Junior's ashes go into eternity. He can save the Urn and allow Iris to die in the pool covered with cement. He can be a real jerk and cause both Iris and the Urn to drop into the pool and be buried in cement but I don't think he would do that. I would have to lean toward Shipman keeping both Iris and the Urn safe in his possession for the sole purpose of dragging out the abuse and torture he has been inflicting upon Bill Barnhart lately.
CHRIS SHIPMAN: What will it be Billy Boy? What decision would you like me to make since I have the decision on the fate of Iris or your son's ashes?
Bill glances down at Lupe at ringside and then he looks at Shipman and relates his decision.
BILL BARNHART: You won the match fairly and you earned the right to make that decision without input from me. However if it were my choice I would make the decision to save Iris since she is a living creature. Bill Barnhart Junior was never born alive and he has already been reduced to ashes. Although I wouldn't want either to go into eternity, especially the ashes of Bill Junior, if that is the decision then at least it will provide closure for us and it will not harm a living creature such as Iris.
CHRIS SHIPMAN: If I were in your position and had to make that choice between my dog which is living, and my son's ashes, which are already deceased, I would also make that decision. If I were truly the most evil person on the planet I would also decide to let both Iris and the Urn drop into the pool and allow both to be covered for eternity with cement. But, Billy Boy, I have something a bit more amusing for you. I am going to allow both Iris and your son's Urn, to remain in my possession. Neither will be dropped into the pool to be covered with cement for eternity. This allows me to continue to tease and test and torture you for a longer period of time. Honestly Bill I am having way more fun stringing you along than to allow you to put an end to our feud.
Barnhart has to accept Shipman's decision. He turns and walks across the platform and then he glides down the ladder to the arena floor. When Bill reaches the floor he hugs his wife Lupe. The two watch Shipman on the platform pull Iris and the Urn up to him and hold them in his arms. Bill and Lupe just turn away and walk up the ramp to return to the backstage area so that Bill can pack up and get ready for the next event.
Winner: Chris Shipman
CLIMAX CONTROL 96: A SINFUL DEBUT
Jasmine St. John steps through the ropes, entering the ring, as she is ready to officiate this upcoming contest.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall!
The lights in the arena dies down as the crowd in the arena screams in anticipation. "Brave Hearts" by No Bragging Rights suddenly explodes through the PA system in sync to the pulsation of gold lights. We then suddenly see the entrance way being engulf with smoke. Amidst the smoke, we see a figure as the song blasts throughout the airwaves. After several seconds while the smoke starts to clear, the figure materializes and is revealed to be Ryan Kidd. He roars and pumps up the crowd.
Justin: Making his way to the ring… Weighing in at TWO HUNDRED and TWELVE POUNDS… From Los Angeles, California… Pro Wrestling's Evil Knievel… RYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN… KIDD!!
As the gold lights pulsation continues, he then strolls down to the ramp and slaps some hands of the fans ringside. He stops at the bottom of the ramp and looks around the whole arena and raises his arm. He then continues walking making his way around the ring slapping some hands of the fans. He then stops in front of a steel steps when a figure charges down the aisle and slams into him from behind!
Adams: It's Shipman!
Ryan's scheduled opponent sends him crashing into the steel steps, then grabs him by the hair and arm and sends him careening against the guard rail!
Simone: He's not even waiting for his own introductions!
Shipman is all over Ryan who is too surprised to defend himself! Shipman slams fist after fist down into Kidd's skull, taking him to one knee! Shipman then grabs two handfuls of his hair and brings a knee into the side of his head, laying him out on the floor! The crowd boos as Shipman turns around to face them with a maniacal grin on his face!
Adams: That man freaks me out!
Simone: I have a feeling before the night is through, Christian is going to regret signing that lunatic!
Shipman turns and grabs Ryan as
