Redemption: Semi Final No.1 Contenders Match: Everest vs. Vengeance

[Monkey_Mania]

Everest vs. Vengeance

After being stripped of the Mayhem Championship Everst is looking for some different type of gold. The World Title. On the other hand Vengeance is also looking for some gold. The winner of this match will face the winner of the Triple Threat between Stokes, Carmen and Manzo. Is Everest just a Rock Slide away from getting closer to the Gold. Or will Vengeance find some higher power to help him win?

Role Plays must be in by Monday Nov. 24th at 11:59 p.m.

[Father:_Polley]

Becky Serra is standing nervously outside a dressing room with Leon Kensworth arguing

Leon: Look, someone’s going to have to do it, the guy has a shot at the Championship.

Becky: There’s no way I’m going in there. The guy is creepy

Leon: Well I’m not going in! Hell, Klamor’s never been the same since this guy’s buddy beat him up.

Becky: So basically, we’ve to tell the boss that no-one can interview the guy?!? Good luck on that one Leon.

Diego San Pablo is seen walking down the hallway.

Leon: One minute Becky. Hey, Diego. Come over here a minute.

Diego: Si señor.

Leon: Diego… this is normally something I’d ask Johnny to do, but he’s a little… indisposed right now after a little incident backstage. How would you like to be the first person to actually have an interview with Vengeance?

Diego: It would be a honour…

Leon: Excellent. Now, I’m required to warn you that while a wrestler isn’t meant to lay a hand on an interviewer, it’s a risk that you take.

Diego: He lay hand on me, I hit him with brass. I take the risk… but tell me homes. Why you or the chica not interview him?

Leon: Ehhh… well. One minute. brings out phone Yes boss, yes I’ll be right there. Everest? I’ll send her now. hangs up Becky, the boss is looking an interview with Everest and he likes you. Diego, I’m sorry to leave you here, but I’ve an urgent meeting to attend. Camera’s already in there for you. Good luck

Both leave, leaving Diego outside the locker room, muttering something about cojones. He turns and knocks the door.

Silence answers him. He opens the door and sees nothing but a lit candle in the room.

Diego: Hola homes. Any one home.

The door closes behind him, leaving him in darkness with the camera in the room focused towards the far wall.

A voice comes from the darkness

So I present them with the opportunity and they choose not to take it. If only they knew the significance of what is to take place, they would be begging to go down in history.

Diego: Porque?

Look around. See what has come to pass since I arrived, the paths that have been cleared in preparation for what must come to pass. A Dynasty has fallen, the corrupt regime has been shattered; liars, cheats, violent men… all have fallen away before; the power hungry have been destroyed and those who crave gold have been humbled. The signs are pointing towards the Glorious Appearing, the day when all will see the planning unfold and bow before The Master.

Diego: Pardon… but who is this Master. Does he even exist? For all we know, you’re loco esse.

Silence meets the question

Diego: You no like the question? Ok. You’re up against four other men who want the title for their own. What will it take to beat them homes?

Three men oppose my goals, each wanting the belt for their own. Men who seek the prestige and riches of being a champion, all the while deceiving and claiming it is for the fans, for honour. CHARLATANS!!! (this echoes around the dressing room. Vengeance pauses for a few seconds before continuing) These men oppose everything in the path laid down, the things which must take place and must be destroyed for this alone. Atonement for their other sins will take place, starting with Everest, and Bratchny and Stokes will receive recompense for their deeds.

Diego: You’re semi-final match is agai…(interrupted)

Everest who has made it clear he seeks nothing but gold. Who charms his way into making you think he is good and upright. Yet his actions of late have shown a sadistic side. This is the man who took it upon himself to injure Reaper in malice, to assault a prone Alex Bowen. He parades himself as an angel of light, all the while acting like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Diego: Nonetheless, señor, the Everest is capable of beating you

(chuckle from the darkness) Capable…being capable and doing are different matters. You see WZCW, all have been capable – Eric Derf, Murfish, Daniel Stokes, Steamboat Ricky – all capable but how many have pinned me in the ring.

Diego: I believe Ricky beat you in the King for a Day tournament.

No-one who has beaten me stands before me today. The Master has seen to that. And will continue to ensure that may path is not blocked by those who would seek to oppose me.

Diego: Señor… there is one more person in the tournament. A man no-one has ever beaten.

(pause) Manzo, a ‘monster’ whose path mirrors my own. Both of us seek to win for the same reason, for our Master. And yet, both of us differ. Manzo serves because he is owned for a short time…a ****e turning a trick because he is paid for. Manzo’s loyalty to his master is one of necessity. I serve the Master, not because I am swayed by money or vain words. No, Manzo… I serve because I see, I know, I understand that which I serve. I know the path ahead and I go forward, not merely following as a sheep.

Diego: Anylast words before you prepare for the match?

An end! The end has come on the four corners of the ring. The end is now on you, and I will send the Master’s anger on you and will judge you and will lay on you all your abominations. My eye shall not spare you, and I will not have pity. You shall know that I am Vengeance. The time has come, the day of tumult is near
For so says the Master: ‘I will soon pour out My fury on you and fulfil My anger on you. And I will judge you according to your ways and will put on you all your abominations.’
Behold the day! Behold, it has come. Violence has. None of them who dare to oppose me shall remain. They will ring the bell, but no one will stand after the battle, for my wrath will be displayed to all. Even the silver and gold of Magnus will not be able to save.
Anguish comes! They shall seek peace, but disaster on disaster must come before the peace. The time is here when the Board shall mourn, when the rest of the roster shall be terrified. Because according to their deeds, I will do to them, and according to their actions, I will judge them. And they shall know that Vengeance is mine and I shall repay.
Now… LEAVE! The camera stays.

Footsteps can be heard as Diego walks away, and light fills the room as the door is opened before it is heard slamming shut.

Vengeance steps out from the shadows and into the light of the candle, visible for the first time.

Master…the time has come for the abominations of WZCW to atone for their actions. They have been given warning and I have not failed you in your demands. I have been a faithful witness in proclaiming that they must be ready for your appearing. The time is at hand, and soon they shall be forced to bow before you as Lord and Master. None shall be allowed to stand.
I pray that you would give me the strength, the determination to do what is expected of me, what you see as reasonable service. Let me not fail in doing your bidding, but clear the obstacles from my path
Let your will be done. The time for redemption has passed, only judgement remains and it shall be meted out, first on Everest and then on whoever dares to stand before me. Let me bring the glory and that which you seek and lay it at your feet… the WZCW Heavyweight Championship.
I go now to fulfil your will

Vengeance moves past the camera, leaving the candle casting his shadow as he walks out the door, closing it behind him. The camera remains on, looking at the camera until it gets blown out, and then the camera is turned off.

 

[michigan]

We open our scene inside a fully filled mid size arena, which is housing tonight’s WZCW house show. A preliminary match between two unknown wrestling school wannabe’s has just finished and several hundred people can be seen getting up and heading for the concession stands, or bathrooms or just for the exits, then……

SUPERNOVA GOES POP! Hits the speaker system and almost literally each and every person in the arena stands in a state of shock. Not believing their ears they strain to see up the ramp way. “Is it a joke?” “It can’t really be him?” these things can be heard over the silence of the crowd.

After a few seconds of Powerman 5000’s hit, EVEREST, himself does step from behind the curtain. The crowd goes ballistic, simply roaring or tearing the roof off the place as JR might say. Kids are yelling at the top of their lungs, woman are straining to get a glimpse.

Everest stands at the top of the ramp, decked out in khakis, his trademark $300 Hawaiian Shirt, Alligator Leather Shoes, he sports a Rolex watch on one arm and has a 24K gold necklace hanging around his neck. But his most visible accessory is the beautifully made WZCW Mayhem Title that adorns his left shoulder. He soaks in the cheers of the adoring crowd for a few moments before he finally descends down the aisle toward the ring. He stops to acknowledge some kids at ringside before winking at a young lady at ringside. He ascends the steps and glides through the ropes. He stands on the top turnbuckle holding his title high before dropping back to the mat and getting himself a microphone.

As the commotion dies down, Everest looks to address his fans.

EVEREST: Well well well, it seems that there might just be a few Everest fans in attendance here tonight!

The crowd erupts again.

EVEREST: Well I don’t want to hold up the show any longer than I have to but you see I’ve got a little situation that has come up and I felt the need to address it as soon as possible. Seeing as how all WZCW house shows are taped for WZCW.com I figured this would be the best and quickest way to get my point across.

You see last night on our very own WZCW.com Mr. Vance Bateman released a statement saying that the board of directors has decided that if I want my shot at the World Title I’d have to give up my Mayhem title, effective immediately.

The crowd is in stunned silence for a moment before raining down a chorus of boo’s for the announcement.

EVEREST: You see the bottom line is I’ve said since I arrived that I WOULD Be the WZCW World Heavyweight Champion. And for each and every one of my fans who have stood behind me, cheered me, adored me, I’m telling you right now, I am not going to back down from that guarantee.

The crowd roars its approval.

EVEREST: Don’t get me wrong, I worked my ass off for this title. I bleed for this title. I gave 110% to get this title and I’m honored to be called the Mayhem Champion but now it’s time to set all my energy all my sights on one goal. It’s time to become the Best.

So Vance, or should I say Mr. Bateman? Whoever you are, if you want me to give up my title, fine! It doesn’t make me happy, it doesn’t really do justice to a title that deserves much more recognition than it has gotten but hey if you want it, it’s yours, come on out and get it.

With that Everest calmly takes the Mayhem title off his shoulder, lays it flat on the mat, in front of him. Several minutes of silence pass as Everest coolly waits in the ring.

EVEREST: Vance my boy, come on out and take your hardware. Don’t worry I’m not going to jump you. It’s ok.

Finally a WZCW referee quickly runs down the ramp and stops at the side of the ring, staring at Everest and not making a move.

EVEREST: Come on up, it’s ok.

Finally the ref slides under the bottom rope and takes the Mayhem title and turns back up the ramp way as the crowd fills the arena with boo’s.

EVEREST: Vance, I do have a favor to ask. One little thing you and the Board of Directors could do for me as a, let’s call it a token of good faith for my generous gesture. You see as I said before, The Mayhem Title needs to be recognized the way it should be. The past champions blood sweat and pain should be seen just like every other champions. So Vance, since you say you are looking for ways to keep WZCW fair and on the level, why don’t you go ahead and do what Myles never had the balls to do…..Sanction that title, make the Mayhem title a recognized WZCW championship.

The crowd roars in approval of Everest’s message.

EVEREST: I know I’ve already taken up too much of your time but before I go, I’ve got just a couple other things to touch on. WZCW’s next pay per view: REDEMPTION. Seems a fitting name for our next show. Big Will vs. Rios, Tag titles on the line, Elite X championship, and not one but 2 huge number one contenders matches for the WZCW World Title. Everyone is looking for Redemption in some way or another.

Before I can focus on my title shot completely though I’ve got one more hurdle. One more obstacle to overcome. The man known as Vengeance wants his opportunity. The youngster wants to be champ just as much as the next guy. Unfortunately for him the next guy at Redemption just so happens to be the one mountain he isn’t going to scale. It seems he wants to satisfy his Master no matter the cost. Well Vengeance I’m not real sure what your head’s been filled with but there’s something you need to know, something that I’m going to be happy to teach you at Redemption. Bottom line Vengeance is you mentioned that I resemble a lion, you don’t know how true that is. Your Master may see fame and fortune for you, hell he may really have you believing that you are cleaning up the WZCW, he may even have you believing you look good in an aqua blue dress with purple pumps, what he hasn’t told you is I am Everest, the man who’s ending your run at gold. They say to be the best you’ve got to beat the best and at Redemption I’m going to send you running back to whatever mysterious mythical “Master” you hang out with defeated 1-2-3 courtesy of a Rock Slide.

The Crowd erupts again.

EVEREST: Then, and only then, I’ll turn my attention to what I’ve fought for since I’ve been here, The WZCW World Title. Whether it is Stokes, Carmen or the Japanese man-child himself, Everest isn’t backing down from anyone. You see it doesn’t matter who wins that other semi-final because which ever man emerges with his hand raised will have found himself in line for one final lesson. One lesson that only Everest can teach him. That’s right folks the man who gets to stand face to face with the Pinnacle of Perfection will get one final lesson, absolutely free!

It’s a lesson each and every opponent of mine has learned before and it will be taught one final time



THIS IS MY WORLD

The crowd proudly joins in with their hero.

EVEREST AND THE CROWD:

I JUST LET YOU LIVE IN IT!

With that Everest, drops the mic on the apron, scales another turnbuckle, posing for the crowd as camera flashbulbs light up the arena. After several seconds of basking in the love of the crowd Everest hops back down, glides through the middle ropes and down to the floor before slowly exiting up the ramp, still celebrating with the fans who have just realized the history they have seen.
