MAIN EVENT MATCH - TORTURE VS SHAZ:Foster: He's going to become the PWR World Heavyweight Champion- Those are the words from the challenger, Shaz. James, your thoughts?
Pope: Shaz has always been vocal, he's great on the mic, Nikki. He makes you almost believe him, however, we heard Torture say otherwise and I truly believe that Torture's title reign is just getting started and he will beat Shaz tonight!
Foster: It's a close call.. I'm going with Shaz though partner, my only concern- those injured ribs. Just how badly will it affect Shaz tonight. It's got to effect your breathing and it could very well take away Shaz's Ariel offence tonight.
Pope: Not just that Nikki, think about it mentally.. It's going to play on the mind of Shaz all match. Just imagine he goes to hit that Corkscrew Shooting Star Press, there's going to be a moment of doubt and that doubt will be crucial.. There can be no doubt when you are walking into a World Title match against someone like Torture.
Foster: Well fans, it's almost time for our Main Event but James, what a night it's been! We have crowned two new Champions in Akira Tajiri and Israel Pamich! We had the debut of JUNO MERCURY and we seen the Knights claim there turf, defeating the Empire.
Pope: We also seen the return of Kyo in the ring.. Beating Darius after a classic from both men. We seen Hayden Coel come out on top and show he's here to stay and he's making an impact here in Pro Wrestling Rebellion. However, the real talking point- N BEATING TOMMY THUNDER! THAT'S RIGHT, YOU HEARD ME, N... BEATING TOMMY THUNDER!
Foster: ALRIGHT! We get it James, jeez, could you scream it any louder? It really has been a great show fans but now it's time for our Main Event Match. The Champ- Torture will defend his World Title against the challenger- Shaz!
Attention then turns to the Titantron where a small video package begins to play. It shows the early days of Shaz, growing up in his home town of Brixton- London. It shows him growing up, His jail time, training hard and his various appearances in the wrestling world, along with his various achievements in the business. The video then pauses with the picture of Shaz on top of the Elimination Chamber pod at No Escape. The video then kicks back in with Shaz nailing the Shooting Star Press that was talked about everywhere! It then comes full circle and shows the recent happenings of Shaz, along with the injured ribs..
The video then pauses once again.. As these words appear - "Life is about struggles, chasing your dream. Life is not easy and will kick you down when you are at your lowest, it's not about how many times you get kicked down though... It's how many times you can stand back up!"
The video then kicks back into gear once more and it shows Shaz once again at his best, fighting on with the injured ribs, continuing to hit that Corkscrew Shooting Star Presses on various superstars on disORDER before the video finishes with the attack from Shaz last week and him vowing to take Torture's title.
Foster: Such an amazing journey this man has been on folks. Shaz can divide opinion, some love him, some hate him. One thing's for sure, the lone wolf demands respect and even with those badly injured ribs, he's ready and he's coming for Torture's World Title!
Olivia Curtis: PWR fans, it's time for our Main Event of the night! This match is scheduled for one fall and will be for the PWR World Heavyweight Title! Introducing first- The Challenger!
Hailing from Brixton, London, England! Weighing 215 pound, The Lone Wolf- Shaz!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHioEC9itTgWith the exception of a few who are booing, Shaz receives the most face reaction he's perhaps had a for a while as the crowd chant and cheer his name. Shaz steps out onto the stage and immediately, he has one arm close to his taped up ribs, perhaps further sign that Shaz is not fully fit for this match. The Brixton bad-boy though shows no sign of injury as he then throws up his arms before pointing to the ground and as the beat of his theme kicks in, so does the pyro behind him as the crowd once more cheer. Shaz then begins making his way down the ramp and enters the ring before he goes through final pre-match stretches, teasing his ribs and movement.
Pope: Huge night for Shaz, Nikki. I'll give credit where it's due, it's gusty of him too even make sure he's here tonight because of those ribs, we know that Shaz has refused time off and wants this badly.. However to want it one thing, to each is another and he has Torture stood in his way tonight. The Era of Torture is upon us!
The camera then turns once more to the Titantron as a second small video package begins to play. This time, the video is very different, more dark and grim. It shows a small child and his problems, various methods of torture are shown on all different animals, from small house pets, to even smaller insects. Everything from Scolding with a hot iron to a magnifying class on a small nest of ants, it's clear the urge to Torture was in him from young.. It then shows the boy, this time older, various allegations are thrown his way, everything from Torture to rape on young girls. The video then continues on, this time the young man, is an adult. He's shown as a member of IWA and with Hawk's nest. The footage shows Torture in the background though.. Very much away from the spotlight.
The video then pauses as these words appear - "Can a child be born evil? Can a man grow to love suffering? The outcast that would become the Champion. The darkness has arrived, evil has reached Pro Wrestling Rebellion. All will suffer.. The man in Black will cause nothing... but... Torture. You have all been warned. The era of Torture is upon us!"
The video then kicks back in and this time the man in latex, is shown doing what he does best, causing pain and suffering. It shows his early days in CMLL and CZW through the various hardcore matches and hard fought battles. It then shows Torture winning the BlackOut title. Finally the video pauses once more for a moment.. It shows Mike Hawk and his shadow, the shadow then begins to get bigger and bigger, eventually Torture emerges from the shadow and his shadow then engulfs Mike Hawk as the crowd see the story being told. It then finishes with Torture winning the PWR World Title in the Elimination Chamber at No Escape.
Foster: A horrible and evil man. Torture is one sick person and the scary part? He's never claimed otherwise folks, Torture knows who and what he is.. He's completely comfortable with it and that should send shivers down the spine of everyone who opposes him.
Pope: Above all.. Torture is highly talented and that's why he represents this company Nikki. It's nothing to do with his bondage fetish or anything of that nature.. Torture has stepped out of Mike Hawk's shadow and is going to eclipse him! The Summer of Hawk is over... He's gone! The era of Torture is now!
Olivia Curtis: Introducing next!! The Champion! Hailing from The Torture Chamber! Weighing 220 pounds, he is the Man in Black. The PWR World Heavyweight Champion- Torture!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_4J8xgA-EUAfter watching the video package, the crowd are going completely crazy with large boo's and jeers in the direction of Torture as he steps out from behind the curtain. There is no sign of emotion or acknowledgement of the crowd from the man in latex. Torture just stands, his title lofted high in the air as he then begins walking down the ramp, headed to the ring.
Foster: Listen to this crowd, James. Torture is not getting heat.. He's burning! The crowd are giving it too him from all angles, there furious after seeing that video package.
Pope: Well I don't know how that video package was allowed to air, but that's Torture.. It's who he is.. That's why he's dangerous and this is Pro Wrestling Rebellion! It's wrestling at it's most extreme and anyone who wanted too see a clean fight.. Well.. Stick to watching Boxing. I know Torture will not care about this response, in fact, I think he will relish it and that's bad news for the challenger- Shaz.
Referee official then does the final checks over both men in there respective corners as the crowd are red hot, on there feet, waiting for the bell to sound. Brian Anderson- the match official then grabs the title from Torture and raises it hight in the air as both opponents continue staring at each other, neither looking away, neither wanting to back down. The match bell then sounds and the action is under way.
PWR World Heavyweight Title, Main Event Match - Torture (Orton) vs Shaz (Hardy)
https://youtu.be/Clh2PrgQKAwStart at 5:00 stop at 9:30
Pope: Drop kick! Torture countering that high rope leap attempt from Shaz.
Foster: Shaz just fell hard to the outside of the ring, landing hard on his side and ribs. Shaz has already got be feeling the burning pain.. yet.. he's shown numerous times in this match that he's prepared to take risk after risk and this crowd are right behind him, supporting him.
Pope: Yeah and how are there support going to help beat Torture? It's just words and clapping Nikki. Shaz has shown he will take risk but Torture is fighting this match smartly and just punished Shaz, for that attempted high risk move from the Brixton Born native.
With Shaz on the outside, nursing his ribs and side from that fall to the outside. Torture exits the ring and immediately keeps the pressure on, driving his knee into the ribs as the crowd boo. Torture then drags back up Shaz and drives his back into the edge of the commentary table, before flipping him back around and then driving his back in the ring apron ledge as the offence is clearly intended to keep the pain on those ribs.
Foster: Shaz had to know this was coming, James. Torture has honed in on those injured ribs and it's a matter of time before that starts to effect the breathing of the lone wolf.
Pope: It was a mistake to think otherwise if that was the case, Nikki. Torture is not just a name, it's who he is and he's punishing Shaz right in front of our commentary table.
With the referee counting.. Torture rolls into the ring, before rolling right back out, though he can regain the title on a count out, clearly he's enjoying the pain being inflicted on his opponent. Torture then drags up Shaz and clobbers him across the back, before firing away with punches to the ribs of Shaz. Torture then hard irish whips Shaz into the crowd barrier, only for Shaz to reverse and swing the Champ instead... Crash! Torture slams into the crowd barrier and knocks it back by a few Centimetres as the crowd cheer. Shaz then lays it on think with a combo of strikes, Torture attempting to cover up.
The love wolf then scoops up the Champion and places him on the barricade as the crowd look on, wondering what's coming next. Shaz then nails Torture with a few more clobbering strikes before hopping up onto the ring apron. Then after a deep breath, from the ring apron he hits Torture with..
Foster: Shaz with the spinning barricade leg drop to the back of Tortures head! Once again, Shaz showing his bravery to take risks.
Pope: But look, Nikki, He's once again clutching his ribs.. He needs to wrestle this match smarter, he's doing damage to himself with these risk moves to please the crowd.
Foster: I don't think he's pleasing anyone, James. This is Shaz, it's his style and he's going to do what ever it takes to leave Retaliation as the new World Heavyweight Champion.
Both men are down on the floor as Shaz hit the spinning leg drop from the ring apron. Shaz though, is the first back up and notices the referee is at a Seven count. Shaz's first reaction is enter the ring and like Torture before him, does so, breaking the count before returning back to the outside. He then picks up Torture and rolls him into the ring. Shaz then leaps up onto the ring apron but before he can do anything else, Torture drives at him with a spear attempt, Shaz see's it coming though and kicks Torture in the face.. Shaz then leaps over the ropes and over Torture, rolling him up with a sunset flip pin attempt..
One!
Two!
Pope: Torture kicks out!
Foster: Shaz almost stole one there partner, he's starting to gain momentum!
Torture kicked out at two, but Shaz continued with the pressure. On top of Torture and begins striking with some MMA ground and pound smashes as Torture tries to cover up. Torture eventually is able to wriggle free, he then see's Shaz coming once more and rams his thumb into the eye of Shaz, binding some time. Torture then springs into the one of the six sided ring ropes and nails Shaz with a knee, the knee once more aimed at the side and ribs of Shaz who falls down instantly, clutching in pain.
Torture then stands, his face is out of view because of the latex costume but you can almost bet that he's smiling underneath, happy too see his challenger suffering and struggling. Torture then lays into Shaz with his boots before pulling him back up. Torture then scoops him up before bringing him back down with the..
..Torture drives Shaz's head into the canvas with the Michinoku Driver ll as the crowd looking on worryingly. Torture then hooks the leg of the lone wolf and look's to end the match right here as official Brian Anderson drops down and begins to count!
One!
Pope: It's over, Shaz ain't getting up from the Michi-Driver to the canvas!
Two!
Foster: Kick out! It's not over, it's not, Shaz kicking out!
Pope: Come on Shaz, be smart, your injured, stay down!
Foster: There is no quit in this man, James. Shaz is going to fight on.
Torture stares at the referee official as Shaz kicks out before the three. Torture then gets back up and once more lays into Shaz with kicks in and around the rib area. Torture then drops down to one knee and begins ripping away at the taped up ribs. Shaz tries fighting back, but Torture hits him back down with a couple of right handed punches. Torture then tears away the tape, protecting the ribs and throws it across the ring. Torture the drags up Shaz and slings him into the turnbuckle.. Shaz's back bashes of the turnbuckle and as he comes stumbling out, Torture grips him up and plants him back down with a back breaker across the knee of Torture as Shaz yells out in pain.
Torture then presses down on Shaz and hooks both legs, almost expecting the victory as the referee counts again.
One!
Two!
Foster: No, still only a two count from the Man in Black, Torture.
Pope: Just stay down Shaz, just stay down!
Torture begins starting to show his frustration. Punching the canvas as he stands back up. He then once again, hauls up Shaz and begins slapping him as the crowd heavily boo. Torture then lines up a punch and when he swings.. Shaz blocks, Shaz then like a whirlwhind fights back, slapping Torture across the chest with chops and then punches, similar to how Dean Ambrose does when he's fired up. Shez then forearm strikes Torture in the face and it appears to stun the Champion.. The challenger then see's the chance and strikes..
..To a pop from the crowd, Shaz lands the codebreaker on Torture. It was clearly a move out of adrenaline though as Shaz then rolls around the ring, holding his back and ribs, he's now in real pain and the referee begins to check on, asking if he can continue on. Shaz yells "Yes" at the referee as he continues nursing his injuries. Across the ring, lays Torture. The Champion can be seen trying to stand, shaking his head, trying to regain his composure after that codebreaker from out of nowhere from Shaz.
Shaz is able to stand first, relying on the ropes for leverage. Shaz then hobbles over to where Torture is now placed and as he draws close, Torture dives forward, slamming his shoulder into the gut of Shaz before then grabbing him and throwing him into the ring post, shoulder first. Torture then grabs Shaz out of the corner and places him in a stretch, positioned in the middle of the ring as Shaz begins yelping in pain as the crowd try to spur him on.
Pope: Clever, very clever from the Champion. Great awareness too, look where Shaz is, he's in the middle of the ring, he's a long way, away from the ropes and this could be a matter of time now, that stretch is looked in tight, causing more damage to those ribs.
Foster: The referee is asking the question James, yet, Shaz is refusing to quit, he won't give up and the crowd are right behind him here!
Pope: This crowd can't make a difference Nikki, Shaz is having the fight squeezed from him, that pain has got too be unbearable and Torture is taking full advantage.
Torture continues the stretch, yanking away, trying to apply more and more pressure as he shouts at the referee to ask him, before shouting at Shaz to quit. With Shaz not looking likely to submit, despite being in agony, Torture releases the hold and then runs the ropes. As he springs back off into the direction of Shaz, he leaps up and nails him with a spinning heel kick, taking him down and out. Torture then scrambles across and hooks the leg once more, hoping this is enough to beat the lone wolf- Shaz.
Pope: Another pin attempt from Torture! This must be it!
One!
Two!
Thre-NO!
Foster: AGAIN, SHAZ KICKS OUT!
Pope: How close was that?! What's Torture got to do? Shaz is a beaten man and he just won't give up! Come on Torture, you need to come up with something to put this guy away, once and for all.
Torture just sits on the canvas, looking at Shaz who begins rolling away, trying to cause some much needed separation from his opponent. Torture seems in disbelief that he was not able to score the three count there. The man in black then gets back up and begins trash talking Shaz as the crowd's boo's continue. Torture then grips up Shaz and pushes him into the corner of the ring, beginning to slap him across the face repeatedly as the crowd's rage for Torture grows. The Champ then slaps Shaz once again, this more harder with no respect at all... Shaz though out of nowhere, explodes! He begins fighting back, punching away at Torture.
Foster: SHAZ FIGHTING BACK!
Shaz with his flurry of strikes is knocking Torture back a little more with each one. He then grabs his own wrist and appears to charge it up, similar to Roman Reigns. He then looks to swing but Torture throws a clothesline his way first, Shaz though ducks the corner and springs off the ropes.. He then leaps in the air and...
...BANG! The superman like punch from Torture knocks him down as the crowd explode with cheers. However the force from the punch, sent Torture rolling out of the ring as Shaz looks devastated, knowing he perhaps used everything left in the tank with that punch.
Pope: Again, clever from Torture. He knows that ring so well, great awareness and when the danger looked likely, he was able to roll out of the ring. Smart move from the Champion.
Foster: Yeah, smart indeed James. Credit where it's due, the Champion made a good choice there because Shaz connected really well.
Pope: What is Shaz dong now? No.. He's not going too.. IS HE?!
Just as Pope finished speaking, Shaz once more defied those injured ribs and would leap through the second rope, smashing into Torture on the outside of the ring like a dart, catching him with a suicide dive as the crowd are chanting "This is Awesome, let's go Shaz".
Foster: Listen to this Vegas crowd, James. There on there feet in appreciation for this match and especially the efforts of the Shaz! I don't know he is able to continue fighting on, he continues taking these risks.
Pope: It's adrenaline, it has too be, maybe this crowd are helping him after all? I can't explain it otherwise, it shouldn't be possible!
Despite thr risks from Shaz, the best is yet too come. He's back up and with a lot of effort, rolls his opponent into the ring. Shaz then drags himself up onto the ring apron, using the ropes, however, he does not stop there and continues climbing, reaching the top rope. The crowd are now chanting and cheering like mad, they sense the match is soon to be over and they are about to witness the spectacle of that Corkscrew shooting star press. With Torture out, positioned in the ring, laying with his back to the canvas. Shaz is up and looks around the arena, sparking more cheers. He then holds his ribs for a moment, trying to balance himself before making the "I'm crazy" hand sign and leaping off the top rope..
Foster: HERE IT IS.. THE CORKSCREW SHOO-
Pope: TORTURE MOVED! TORTURE MOVING OUT OF THE WAY!
Foster: NO! He's hurt- Shaz just crash landed onto the canvas and is in a world of hurt!
The crowd look on, real worry across there face as the landing was horrible, Torture moving out of the way as Shaz landed heavily on to the ring surface. Torture looks on, the corner of his eye, viewing Shaz riding in agony as the referee checks on him, almost like he's about to stop this match. Torture though wants nothing like that too happen and see's his chance.. Torture then stands back up, yells at the referee to stop this match and then runs the ropes, he reaches the second and spings off with the..
Pope: TORTURE SAULT! Torture with the Torture Sault!
Foster: Once again, the pain, those ribs and gut have been crushed.
Pope: This is it! Torture with the pin!
Foster: The crowd are stunned, they know what's coming here!
One!
Two!
Three!
Pope: TORTURE HAS DONE IT! He's retained the PWR World Heavyweight Championship!
Foster: My god- the fight, the desire, the hunger and the never say quit attitude of Shaz, that's what I'll remember from this match, James. I'll give Torture credit though, there was no back up plan, there was no trick up his sleeve. Torture has shown why he's the PWR World Champion and he's just beat Shaz!
Pope: The era of Torture, Nikki. It's upon us and it's not going away!
Olivia Curtis: The winner of this match! AND STILL, YOUR PWR HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, TORTURE!
The crowd are not happy, but there's a few who are accepting that Torture done his job and has retained his world title tonight. The rest though are seemingly worried about Shaz as a few more officials run down, looking to aid the clearly hurt challenger. Torture though, just looks on before being handed his title and holding it up in the air for all too see.
Pope: Torture is still the World Champion!
Foster: Wrestling fans, we hope you have enjoyed tonight's show- I certainly have. Torture has retained his title and you wonder, what's next?! Who's next?! Thank you for joining us tonight and allowing us into your homes. We hope too see you soon on disORDER where we will be live for the first time outside of New York, We will be coming at you from the land of extreme, Philly! Until then, Good night everybody!
One last shot of Torture holding his World Title in the air is shown as the camera cuts away and the live feed goes dead.
