Part 1
The camera fades in on an office. Behind the desk sit’s a man with the back of the chair to the camera in an effort to hide his identity. But as soon as he begins to speak, it becomes obvious to everyone watching just who it is. But for the sake of suspense…we’ll wait to reveal his identity.
? : This isn’t a reunion…and don’t call it a rebirth. Because it’s neither of those things. It is in fact…to put it simply for all of you laymen out there…a continuation. Or maybe it would be better stated to call this a return….a return to form. That’s right…but some of you may still be asking, a return of what? That ones easy…a return to the roots of this whole inflated ego driven bootleg independent scene. You see, along the way some of us forgot the most important rule in this entire business. And that one rule…is to never…ever….FUCK WITH ANTHONY DUCLOS!!!
With that, Duclos swings around in his chair, a massive grin spread out across his face. The years haven’t changed the Miscreant much save for the suit and tie, which in the past wasn‘t exactly his style. Duclos leans over onto the desk, his hands clasped. He regains his composure and begins again.
Duclos : Once again I had all you marks fooled..thinking I was going to come on here, and act like some lousy baby face heralding in some sort of TCW resurrection. HA! You all are so predictable it’s almost not even fun anymore! The real reason I’m back and this old, dusty, downtrodden shit filled arena is being resurrected is because after sitting in the back and watching the so called scene grow, I’ve come to a frightening conclusion. A conclusion I couldn’t have otherwise come to if I was still “in the game”. And that conclusion is that the independent scene is really just a bunch of half wit promoters banded together under some sort of false comradeship , meandering through the wastes like a chicken with it’s head cut off. Without me leading the charge, the sheeps of this so called hardcore revolution have continued to die a slow, agonizing death for the better part of a decade now. With no end in sight mind you, while the once vilified GWF has risen to become the hero and idol for all company’s to be modeled after. IT MAKES ME SICK!
Duclos begins ushering the camera closer in an effort to make this next part as personal as possible.
Duclos :That…TCW faithful is why I’m back. Because I feel sorry for those few company’s that remain, desperately trying to slug it out against an unbeatable foe. Not to help them, not even really to lead them. No..there is no promised land…and I’m no Sheppard. Instead, what I am…what this company will be, is a beacon of light in a sea of unmatched darkness. A signal to those seeking refuge, letting them know all is not lost, but that even if it be in my power, I will not help them. Because this is their battle, and I am simply here to satisfy my insatiable ego. Enjoy the show and CUE THE INTRO!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
The camera fades out and into the intro as Duclos leans back in his chair laughing.
BLOODCORE 8
FOUNDATION[/center][/size][/b]
Slayer’s “Here Comes the Pain” plays as the intro to the show and a montage of the events leading up to this event are shown. The opening comes to a close with Crow staring into the camera, his face a crimson mask of blood. The camera cuts live to the TCW arena where the fans have packed in, one on top of the other to get a chance, they hope, to see one of the best independent shows around. Its standing room only as banners line the rafters and balcony, commemorating the big Pay Per View event. After weeks of build up, it’s finally time for FOUNDATION!
1. “The Punk” Hiram Maxim vs. Pharcyde
As has become the norm here in Bloodcore and throughout his career, Pharcyde’s matches invariably involve loads of plunder and bloodshed. This match was no exception as the fans were treated to a hardcore brawl to start the show and loved every minute of it. What little actual wrestling this match contained came courtesy of Hiram Maxim. The clash of styles managed to keep this wild affair interesting throughout, and in the end, it was the wrestler, Hiram Maxim, who prevailed after hitting a Spicolli Driver through the seats of a pair of opened steel chairs.
Winner : “The Punk” Hiram Maxim
“Power” by KMFDM hits over the PA and RK Oasis brings out the newly formed Elitists stable which includes All-Earth Champion Johnny Vargo, Rex Brewer, Kanazawa, and the members of Stud Inc (Terry Bogard, Paco Morales, Jacky Kage, and Mr. Nick). All seven men are decked to the nines in expensive silk suits, including Kanazawa, who looks surprisingly good in pin stripes. RK Oasis gets on the mic and gets things started off.
Oasis : The Doomtroopers. When you mention that name, people tend to think of one of the most violent and hardcore tag teams in the history of this sport. The Doomtroopers…yeah…they’re pretty good. Slayer and Astro Creep, they’ve been everywhere and have been pretty successful wherever they’ve went. Yeah..I have respect for them…how could you not? Which leads me to my next point. Creep and Slayer, they musta’ been reading their own press releases, because as of late, they’ve been thinking pretty highly of themselves. And that’s fine, you gotta have confidence to succeed here. But you two..for some reason you got the silly idea that by picking a fight with me, you’re somehow gonna get yourselves over again. You two think your shit don’t stink, but I’m out here to clue you in on something. When you mess with the devil, you get burned, and boys..I’m the fucking devil! I play for keeps and I definitely don’t mess around. You two wanna take this to the next level..? That’s fine by me…I don’t mind stomping a fucking hole in both your heads…in fact…I’ll probably enjoy it! You two get yours later on tonight, because me and Zawa…we’re pros, we don’t need any heat to bust you up…but it looks like we got plenty of heat….which means that we’re gonna go ahead and bust you up…real bad. And in the aftermath…no one will be talkin about the Doomtroopers anymore. The only thing their gonna have on their minds…are the Elitists. The most DOMINANT group in wrestling today. In fact, the Elitists have a pretty big night ahead of them, but I’ve already said my piece,. I’ll let my actions later on tonight do the rest of the talking.
Brewer : Rex Brewer and Johnny Vargo. Johnny Vargo and Rex Brewer. It doesn’t matter how you phrase it, because either way…we win! Tonight, Johnny and me, we bring those tag titles home, right to where they belong, around the waists of the finest athletes in the sport today. Mad Cow….U Turn…Bloodcore’s golden boys..you two, have had a pretty successful run, but that all ends tonight. Cuz when me and Vargo aren’t getting paid and getting laid, we’re winning matches. And you two jabronies are no exception.
Backstage, me and Vargo got a couple of ladies that would love to be our girlfriends after the show…but me and Vargo, we got tons of broads who would just love a tour of our junkyard. So tell ya what…after me and Vargo here lay the wackdown on your asses and take your belts, how bout we send you our friends. And don’t worry..they won’t mind being with a couple of losers, after all, they used to be your girlfriends. Hahahahaa.
Vargo : This past week, after the lineup for this show was announced, I began hearing rumbles backstage about the fact that I’m not going to be defending my All-Earth title. I heard a couple people make a few remarks about me..Johnny Vargo, being some kind of paper champion. Just a pretty face with a big gold belt they said. Well… just to show all of you what kind of fighting champion I really am, I’m going to put up my All Earth Title in a match, TONIGHT! That’s right, the original showstopper is laying it all on the line on Pay Per View! Now, during the weeks leading up to this event, I’ve been scouting the backstage, looking…searching for the perfect opponent for such an occasion. I was able to find several men that were worthy of the opportunity I am presenting tonight. But only one man, in my opinion, had what it takes to go toe to toe with Johnny Vargo, and at the same time, bring this house down for you, my fans. So Sevendust, you’ve just won the lottery. And since I’ve got another match set for tonight, I’m not gonna wait till later. I plan on doing this right now, right here. And I don’t give a DAMN what Duclos thinks.
The house lights drop and “Terminator” cues up over the PA. Sevendust steps out from the back, only partially dressed for the match, still wearing his vintage Pit Viper “Fighting Titans” t-shirt. Vargo ushers the rest of the Elitists out of the ring and tells them to go on to the back because he won’t be needing their help tonight. RK Oasis tries to reason with Vargo, but he’ll hear none of it, and finally, Oasis concedes and takes Kanazawa, Rex Brewer, and Stud Inc to the back with him. As Sevendust hit’s the ring and rips off his shirt, Vargo calmly pulls off his suit jacket and shirt, ripping away his tie and tossing it out into the crowd. He then pulls off his pants, revealing his ring attire underneath. Vargo smiles, then removes his sunglasses and winks at Sevendust. A ref is sent out, the wrestlers are announced, and the bell sounds, signaling the start of the match.
2.Sevendust vs. Johnny Vargo (All-Earth Champion) - impromptu match
The crowd is jacked up for the start of this one as both wrestlers immediately lock up. Sevendust holds the edge over Vargo right from the start, tearing into the champ with an intensity not seen in him in years! It’s all Vargo can do to hold on as Dust flies around the ring and puts a beating on him. Vargo, on the brink, is able to catch Dust with a low blow and take control back. From there the action is pretty much back and forth with both wrestlers getting their shots in. Dust is able to catch Vargo in the DRAGON SLEEPER several times, but Vargo is somehow able to break free each time. The big turning point in the match comes when Dust miss-times an asai moonsault, and is sent crashing hard into the guardrail! Vargo is able to capitalize, take Dust back inside and work him over. Soon after, Vargo hits OVER NOW and scores the pin.
Winner and STILL BLOODCORE All-Earth Champion : Johnny Vargo (2nd Defense)
Backstage :
Rex Brewer : (Catching up with Johnny Vargo after the match) Hey Johnny..how you feeling? Sevendust really gave you a run for your money…you sure you’re gonna be ready to go later against Ultra Spank?
Johnny Vargo : huh..? Were you watching the same match? Sevendust… give me a run for my money? C’mon Brewer…you seriously need your eyes checked. That match was all Johnny Vargo, start to finish, the original showstopper doing his thing. I wouldn’t be surprised if I caused a few panties to drop in the audience!
Brewer : Yeah…I know…but…
Vargo : That was just a warmup for our match with Ultra Spank. Now that I’m good and loose, those two punks are gonna be wishing they hadn’t signed a contract to fight us. Now c’mon, since I’m feeling good…lets go give those broads in our locker room a couple souvenirs to remember the night by.
Rex Brewer smiles, and the two walk off as the camera cuts back to ringside.
3.Osaka Rex vs. Anoxia - Shaolin Temple Death Match
The sleeper feud between the RexMen and the team of Scab and Anoxia finally began to get noticed after a brutal tag contest between the two teams that saw Shadow Rex send Scab off the lower balcony in the TCW arena with a SHI-REX CROSS DROP through a folding table some 10 ft. below. Afterward, a match for the PPV was signed. But with Scab injured, the contest was scheduled as a one on one affair between Osaka Rex and Anoxia. A shorter bout then some fans would of liked, the amount of unadulterated violence found in this match surely made up for the short running time. Anoxia eventually won this bloody affair after hitting a running power slam through one of the barbed-wire boards in the corner. Afterward, both wrestlers were injured and had to be helped to the back by the medical staff.
Winner : Anoxia
4.Stud Inc w/ Jacky Kage & Mr. Nick vs. Pitchshifter - Double Tables Match
As the first two stables in Bloodcore formed, it was only natural that the groups’ main tag teams would find themselves in a feud. This match sees a lot of wild free for all action as the referee is unable to get control. Jacky Kage and Mr. Nick liberally run interference throughout the early portions of the match with Jacky Kage helping out to score the first fall of the match when the ref’s back is turned with the STOPPER on Reprise off the ring apron through the table. Finally, the ref calls for officials to escort the two from ringside and Pitchshifter is able to take control of the match back. Bogard and Morales find themselves in a bad way with neither Kage or Mr. Nick there to run interference and Prominence and Reprise are able to take the second fall by putting Terry Bogard through a table with their signature tag finisher, THE COMPACTOR. With both teams now all even, the third fall gets off to a fast start. Pitchshifter rides the wave of momentum and are able to do considerable damage to their opponents. But they are unable to break that last table to win this match and Stud Inc are able to pull the proverbial rabbit out of their hat when Bogard is able to roll off a table in the nick of time as Reprise comes off the top rope with a death jump! Reprise is sent crashing head first through the table and Stud Inc are declared the winners.
Winners : Stud Inc
5.Jackson Fury vs. Richard “Manifesto” Banks (Unofficial Death Match Champion) - Light Tube Double Hell Glass Barricade Scorpion Tank Death Match
This is a wild affair between two hardened veterans of the hardcore scene that by all accounts, should have been scheduled later-on in the card. Both wrestlers take hellacious bumps that would make even the most desensitized twelve year old cringe. Both men bleed by the buckets full and its hard to imagine how either are still standing after the amount of blood they’ve lost. But Jackson Fury and Richard Banks keep coming back at each other, pushing each other even farther than before, and as a result, each spot is more brutal than the next! This goes on for some 10 horrifying minutes until the finish finally rears it’s ugly scar riddled head. Jackson Fury and Richard Banks are brawling near the ropes when Fury tries to dump Banks over the ropes and onto the c4 lined barbed-wire coils, lined with large sheets of glass that completely surround the ring. Banks is able to fight away and shove Fury over the ropes instead, and he is sent crashing through the glass and into the mess of barbed-wire! A huge explosion rocks the arena and large billows of smoke rise up from the blast center where Jackson Fury landed. The ref, assessing the situation, wants to call the match, but Banks won’t let him. And follows up with the RIOT ACT over the ropes onto Jackson Fury’s prone body on the outside, causing a second, even larger explosion!!! The ref can’t believe what he’s just seen, and neither can any of the fans in attendance! Both wrestlers lay tangled in the mess of barbed-wire, covered in large shards of glass, burnt to high hell from head to toe from the explosions. The ref quickly calls for the bell amidst a sea of “holy shit” and “That was hardcore” chants.
NO CONTEST
Medical crews are quickly sent out to cut both wrestlers free from the barbed-wire. As medical crews get to ringside, they realize the situation is much more dire than they thought, and call to the back for even more help. The whole scene takes about fifteen minutes to play out. And as Richard Banks is being stretchered out, he comes to life, and refuses to be taken to the back without his death match title, to which the fans respond to by giving a big pop and a “He’s Hardcore” chant.

6. Talisman vs. Lonestar - 2/3 Falls
The feud between old friends, Lonestar and Talisman has been brewing the last couple of weeks, and finally boiled over at the last show from the TCW arena before this event. With things at a fever pitch, this match was signed, a 2/3 falls match to prove, once and for all, ‘who was the better man”. Lonestar and Talisman engage in a battle that can only be described as a wrestling classic. Although Lonestar has become known in later years as a hardcore brawler, his wrestling abilities are top notch. And he shows them off in style as he dances around the ring with Talisman. But where Lonestar is a more of a technical wrestler, Talisman is a high flying risk taker, and the clash of styles leads to some interesting spots that give the fans reason to cheer. The first fall is solid from start to finish, with Lonestar taking it after Death Valley Driver.
Winner of the first fall : Lonestar
The second fall picks up where the first left off with more awesome wrestling. But a steel chair is introduced into the proceedings, and Lonestar takes full advantage. Lonestar hammers away with the chair, until it is obvious that Talisman is bleeding from under the mask. The ref wants to remove the mask to clear away all the blood, but Talisman refuses, and keeps on going. Talisman is able to rally, take Lonestar into the corner, and work him over for a considerable amount of time, long enough to wear him down for a Northern Lights Suplex which leads to a pin and the sudden end of the second fall.
Winner of the second fall : Talisman
The third and final fall, as expected, gets started slowly as both men begin to tire. Talisman strikes first, but Lonestar fires back hitting a pair of running power bombs which nearly seal the deal. But Talisman fights through it and gets himself back in the match after sunset flipping Lonestar on an “into the ropes” attempt. Lonestar is nearly caught and pinned, but as he fights free from the pin attempt, he grabs a facefull of Talisman’s mask and pulls it off! What the fans see next shocks them. Because under the mask is Lonestar’s kid brother…BALLISTIC!!!! Lonestar looks on in confused disbelief and literally freezes. Ballistic however uses this as an opportunity and quickly plants Lonestar with a snap DDT before hitting the ropes with his TUMBLEWEED finisher. Ballistic covers and gets the sudden win.
Winner of the third and final fall : Talisman…or is it Ballistic?!?
As Ballistic is announced the winner, their father, Kain, who hasn’t been seen or heard from in almost 5 years, suddenly comes out from the back. He enters the ring and embraces his son Ballistic as Lonestar begins to stir. Kain turns his attention to his oldest son and goes to him, but Lonestar quickly backs away, unsure of what to make of the entire situation.
Kain : Lonestar … my beautiful son . You look well…..
Lonestar doesn’t react to his fathers words, he merely stares vacantly into his direction, still unsure of what to make of the situation at hand. Kain notices his son’s uneasiness.
Kain : …but you don’t look pleased to see me. Do I frighten you? I assure you, I’m not a ghost. Flesh and blood stands before you my son….your father, alive and well!
Lonestar remains still as Ballistic takes his place next to Kain. Kain can tell that Lonestar is not yet convinced.
Kain : Fear not my son…I’m not here to hurt you. I am in fact here to help you. To save you from this place… to offer you….a way out. Please, come with me, and everything will be explained in due time. I promise.
After several moments of hesitation, Lonestar reaches out and takes Kain’s hand. Kain helps Lonestar to his feet and the three calmly exit to the back.

With both teams now all even, the third fall gets off to a fast start. Pitchshifter rides the wave of momentum and are able to do considerable damage to their opponents. But they are unable to break that last table to win this match and Stud Inc are able to pull the proverbial rabbit out of their hat when Bogard is able to roll off a table in the nick of time as Reprise comes off the top rope with a death jump! Reprise is sent crashing head first through the table and Stud Inc are declared the winners.
Winners : Stud Inc
5.Jackson Fury vs. Richard “Manifesto” Banks (Unofficial Death Match Champion) - Light Tube Double Hell Glass Barricade Scorpion Tank Death Match
This is a wild affair between two hardened veterans of the hardcore scene that by all accounts, should have been scheduled later-on in the card. Both wrestlers take hellacious bumps that would make even the most desensitized twelve year old cringe. Both men bleed by the buckets full and its hard to imagine how either are still standing after the amount of blood they’ve lost. But Jackson Fury and Richard Banks keep coming back at each other, pushing each other even farther than before, and as a result, each spot is more brutal than the next! This goes on for some 10 horrifying minutes until the finish finally rears it’s ugly scar riddled head. Jackson Fury and Richard Banks are brawling near the ropes when Fury tries to dump Banks over the ropes and onto the c4 lined barbed-wire coils, lined with large sheets of glass that completely surround the ring. Banks is able to fight away and shove Fury over the ropes instead, and he is sent crashing through the glass and into the mess of barbed-wire! A huge explosion rocks the arena and large billows of smoke rise up from the blast center where Jackson Fury landed. The ref, assessing the situation, wants to call the match, but Banks won’t let him. And follows up with the RIOT ACT over the ropes onto Jackson Fury’s prone body on the outside, causing a second, even larger explosion!!! The ref can’t believe what he’s just seen, and neither can any of the fans in attendance! Both wrestlers lay tangled in the mess of barbed-wire, covered in large shards of glass, burnt to high hell from head to toe from the explosions. The ref quickly calls for the bell amidst a sea of “holy shit” and “That was hardcore” chants.
NO CONTEST
Medical crews are quickly sent out to cut both wrestlers free from the barbed-wire. As medical crews get to ringside, they realize the situation is much more dire than they thought, and call to the back for even more help. The whole scene takes about fifteen minutes to play out. And as Richard Banks is being stretchered out, he comes to life, and refuses to be taken to the back without his death match title, to which the fans respond to by giving a big pop and a “He’s Hardcore” chant.

6. Talisman vs. Lonestar - 2/3 Falls
The feud between old friends, Lonestar and Talisman has been brewing the last couple of weeks, and finally boiled over at the last show from the TCW arena before this event. With things at a fever pitch, this match was signed, a 2/3 falls match to prove, once and for all, ‘who was the better man”. Lonestar and Talisman engage in a battle that can only be described as a wrestling classic. Although Lonestar has become known in later years as a hardcore brawler, his wrestling abilities are top notch. And he shows them off in style as he dances around the ring with Talisman. But where Lonestar is a more of a technical wrestler, Talisman is a high flying risk taker, and the clash of styles leads to some interesting spots that give the fans reason to cheer. The first fall is solid from start to finish, with Lonestar taking it after Death Valley Driver.
Winner of the first fall : Lonestar
The second fall picks up where the first left off with more awesome wrestling. But a steel chair is introduced into the proceedings, and Lonestar takes full advantage. Lonestar hammers away with the chair, until it is obvious that Talisman is bleeding from under the mask. The ref wants to remove the mask to clear away all the blood, but Talisman refuses, and keeps on going. Talisman is able to rally, take Lonestar into the corner, and work him over for a considerable amount of time, long enough to wear him down for a Northern Lights Suplex which leads to a pin and the sudden end of the second fall.
Winner of the second fall : Talisman
The third and final fall, as expected, gets started slowly as both men begin to tire. Talisman strikes first, but Lonestar fires back hitting a pair of running power bombs which nearly seal the deal. But Talisman fights through it and gets himself back in the match after sunset flipping Lonestar on an “into the ropes” attempt. Lonestar is nearly caught and pinned, but as he fights free from the pin attempt, he grabs a facefull of Talisman’s mask and pulls it off! What the fans see next shocks them. Because under the mask is Lonestar’s kid brother…BALLISTIC!!!! Lonestar looks on in confused disbelief and literally freezes. Ballistic however uses this as an opportunity and quickly plants Lonestar with a snap DDT before hitting the ropes with his TUMBLEWEED finisher. Ballistic covers and gets the sudden win.
Winner of the third and final fall : Talisman…or is it Ballistic?!?
As Ballistic is announced the winner, their father, Kain, who hasn’t been seen or heard from in almost 5 years, suddenly comes out from the back. He enters the ring and embraces his son Ballistic as Lonestar begins to stir. Kain turns his attention to his oldest son and goes to him, but Lonestar quickly backs away, unsure of what to make of the entire situation.
Kain : Lonestar … my beautiful son . You look well…..
Lonestar doesn’t react to his fathers words, he merely stares vacantly into his direction, still unsure of what to make of the situation at hand. Kain notices his son’s uneasiness.
Kain : …but you don’t look pleased to see me. Do I frighten you? I assure you, I’m not a ghost. Flesh and blood stands before you my son….your father, alive and well!
Lonestar remains still as Ballistic takes his place next to Kain. Kain can tell that Lonestar is not yet convinced.
Kain : Fear not my son…I’m not here to hurt you. I am in fact here to help you. To save you from this place… to offer you….a way out. Please, come with me, and everything will be explained in due time. I promise.
After several moments of hesitation, Lonestar reaches out and takes Kain’s hand. Kain helps Lonestar to his feet and the three calmly exit to the back.
