Dave C.
Desperado
Emblem

Good luck to all of you and keep up the good work.

[Matt Oliveira]

(Let's assume we've all climbed into the cage, and work from there.)

The four men stand in their corners, some soaked with sweat, some with blood, but all have a tunnel-vision to one goal of lasting the longest. It is no longer a race, not a first-one-there, not a fastest-way-possible, but a last-one-there, and an easiest-way-possible. Now you need to make your fellow man lose his dream, his ambitions, and to say "I quit, I give, you're the better man. Just don't hurt me anymore".

Matt looks up from a bent-over position across the ring, Emblem, to his right, Desperado, and to his left, Dave "The Lightning" Carter. All four step out from the turnbuckles, ready to take the last step of The NeXus. Matt charges across the ring, blood staining his shirt, and coating his face, towards Emblem. Emblem dodges by a quick side-step, holding out his arms and catching Matt's left hand. He turns inwards of his body, an Arm Drag Takedown, sending Oliveira to the mat. He drops a leg over the captured arm, and pivots his body around to Matt's legs, Grecko-Roman style with his body low and arms to his side, that of a bulldog's, while darting on his toes over. He bear hugs the "Genius's" legs, and stands up into a Catapult position. Emblem threads a leg between Matt's two, and plants his foot firmly to Matt's side. Emblem pivots on his planted leg, turning both men over -a Sharpshooter. Matt screams from the torque placed on his lower back, most likely resembling a well-tenderized steak by now, and reaches out of anything -ropes, weapons, or even another Fighty fighty person, that could help him from an early elimination. He plants his hands to the ground in a push-up position, and lifts his body off of the mat, releasing a strained groan. Emblem leans, Matt drops to the canvas. Matt pushes up again, looking under his chest to see Emblem's weight-bearing leg. He grabs the foot with one hand, causing him to roll onto his shoulder, increasing the pain. Oliveira drops the other hand, latching it onto Emblem's foot, and tries to straighten out his legs while attempting for the "Impulsive" to lose his footing by pulling and straining Emblem's leg to his stomach. Emblem falls toward, still at Matt's legs, while Oliveira grabs and holds Emblem's leg close, and turns over onto his back, his legs still in a Grapevine. He twists Emblem's foot inwards, an Ankle Lock, as "Impulsive releases the "Genius"'s legs, pulling himself to the ropes.

JP: "I can't believe it! Matthew Oliveira is still in this! His debut match, and he's still going!"
Ray: "Attaboy, Matt! I like my boys long-lasting!"
JP: "...will commentate for cash!"

Meanwhile, Dave and Desperado have engaged in another infamous punchin'-spree. Furys of haymakers and Flair Chops flying ever which way, the crowd sounding like a Bee Gees concert. Dave whips Desperado into the ropes, Desperado rebounds off of them, running back towards "The Lightning". Desperado strafes Carter, grabbing Dave's arm in a square-dancing move, launching his opponent into the ropes. Dave hits them, and returns and Desperado begins charging for a Spear. Dave leaps upwards, over Desperado, and plants his feet into Desp.'s back in a Mushroom Stomp. The crowd cheers in an accepting "Sup-er Mar-i-o" chant, some doing a double "1up" point upwards. Desperado stumbles, and 180s to facing Dave, slightly embarrassed, and dives forward again, landing a tough Clothesline that whiplashes Dave to the mat. Desperado hops back to his feet, utilizing the No-DQ rule by thrashing through the can in the corner. He pulls out a cookie sheet, deciding on a "anything will do" basis. Desperado wheels around to Dave, who is returning to his feet. He raps Carter over the head with the tin, making a slapping sound, metal meeting flesh, as the sheet caves in on his head. Dave wobbles on rubber legs as Desperado whaps him across the bean from a second hit, and another. Dave looks blankly at Desperado, glassy-eyed, on another planet, before snapping back into reality. He takes a nano-second glance at Desperado before whipping his body and jumping...landing a BOOM HEADSHOT on the cowboy. Desperado falling on his back to the canvas.

JP: "Dave Carter, Lighting quick. Fast and accurate."
Ray: "Yeah...that's why I don't like him."

Carter hypes himself off the crowd, taking in the cheers of thousands that are standing on their feet. He pulls Desperado's body perpendicular to the turnbuckle, and jogs to the corner. He climbs the buckles, facing out to the cage, and the height outside the cage. He raisies his arms like an olympic diver, and swings the overhead, taking his body with it. Carter takes flight, flipping twice in the air and landing stomach first on Desperado in a Double Moonsault. Carter sits up, next to Desp., clutching his ribs, forgetting about the amount of abuse taken upon them. He looks to his side as a pair of feet meet his head...Emblem's Slingshot Dropkick. Dave is again whipped to the mat, his head in a daze from a recovered Emblem's kick. Matt is in the corner after losing the submission tug-of-war with Emblem, holding his right leg from the Sharpshooter.

[emblem]

Emblem uses the ropes to get back up, pulling Matt away. Emblem has a split second to look for weapons, but fails as Matt makes him double over with a fast low blow. Emblem doubles over, and Matt grabs his head in a suplex base move. Matt lifts him up, and drophs him in a suplex slam. Matt then puts emblem on his knees, measures him up, and kicks him in the cheek, iron hard.

JP: Buzzsaw kick! Emblems head almost flew off!

Ray: Im more concerned with his look, see! He's looking at that thrash can.

Matt walks over to the thrash can, empties it, and walks back at Emblem. He puts emblem on his knees, keeps him so, for Emblem almost falls to the ground again. Matt places the can over Emblems head, and runs into the opposite ropes, comes back and...BOOM!

Ray: Matt just kicked Emblems can!

JP: Kick the can! Unbelievable! I bet he saved that move up for last!

Matt looks at Emblem but then falls to his knees, face in pain. Dave Carter grabbed a barbed wire baseball bat after taing his breath, and got Matt in the back. Dave strikes again with the bat, making Matt fall to the mat. Dave looks throughout the ring, seeing all the competitors are down, moving but not getting up. Dave jumps on the turnbuckle with the baseball bat, taunting to the crowd.

Ray: Another reason why I don't like him. HE has his back towards again.

JP: ...Why is it illegal to kill?

Matt, Emblem and Desperado are stirring, Emblem pushes the thrash can off him, Desperado feels his head, and Matt stands up feeling his back, enraged.

JP: wow, matt doesnt look happy..

Ray: Would you be happy after being hit with that?

Dave sees Matt getting up, and hops off the turnbuckle, looking at Matt. Matt gets himself into a vertical base, and faces Dave. Dave seems to be preparing for a quick move, but this time, the Genius was faster, simply but effectively taking down Dave with a big boot. Dave falls to the mat, feeling his face. Matt gets himself onto Dave, mumbling something, then proceeding to pound Dave in the face with some hard fists.

In the meanwhile, Desperado gets up, and seeing Matt and Dave fight, he sets his sights on Emblem. emblem lies on the ground, but sits up, looking around as if he does not know where he is.

JP: A combonation of hard-hitting moves and exhaustion, Emblem has felt it all.

Ray: They all did, but in this case, you gotta remember, that it does also count who got here how fast. Emblem was the last one in, utilizing the decrease of foes. But in the meanwhile, Matt took his time and regained some stamina, by getting himself in the third stage first.

Desperado picks emblem up, and lifts him up for a sidewalk slam on the thrash can. Emblem slaps him on the back, and gets himself on his feet, before preparing a russian leg sweep, slowly but advancing. Desperado gets his leg out of the way, and sidesteps. Emblem takes a deep breath, then starts hopping on his feet again. Desperado knows that Emblem has a unique personal striking style, but does not know what it includes. Desperado feels it fast enough, as Emblem switches legs, and Roundhouse kicks desperado in the face, making him fall to the mat. Desperado gets up quickle, sweeping some dripping blood of his mouth.

Ray: Either he had that, or The Impulsive got him quite hard..

JP: Or both..

Emblem turns around again, and kicks Desperado in the chest area. Desperado launs backwards, trying to stand. Emblem utilizes this, and grabs his head, jumping backwards, nailing a dragon cutter.

JP: Very nice!

Emblem gets up, but falls back on the ropes, trying to get his breath...

[Matt Oliveira]

The crowd applauds Emblem's Dragon Cutter as the "Impulsive One" catches his breath and bearings. Emblem proceeds to stalk over to the downed Desperado, and pull him up to a sitting position by his head. Emblem sinks a knee into his back, and wraps an arm around Desperado's neck and grasping his opposite arm placed on Desp's shoulder, a close-knit Sleeper Hold. Emblem tightens the hold, Desperado already beginning to fade away. Emblem takes his unused hand and pushes Desperado's head to one side, adding more torque to the Sleeper. Desperado coughs, and his eyes begin to open with a glazed look. His hands grab Emblem's forearm that he is being choked with, and digs his fingers into the arm. Emblem grunts, and looses up the Sleeper. This allows Desperado to move his head to the arm, and sink his teeth into Emblem. Emblem releases a yelp, and both men stand up, "Impulsive" continuing to apply the hold. Desperado rolls the arm of Emblem, releasing the sleeper, and pivots lower, turning to Emblem, his shoulder at his opponents waist. Desperado wraps his arms around Emblems midsection, looking to move up to a Fireman's Carry, but Emblem rains fists on Desp's back. He unwraps his arms, allowing Emblem to give a couple more punches to the neck and back, before he lowers to Emblem's knee-height. The "Impulsive" seizes the opportunity, and take one step back before hopping up and twisting his body 3/4 around and landing a Spinning Leg Drop on Desperado, driving his head to the mat. Emblem pulls himself up again, continuing on the offensive by climbing the nearest turnbuckle, facing outwards. He stands on the corner, and moonsaults with another spinning of his body. Desperado feverishly grabbed a nearby chair and raised his knees, placing the chair over his kneecaps, help up by his hands. Emblem's torso collides with the chair in a Corkscrew Moonsault, Desperado protected by the seat.

JP: "What awareness qualities from Desperado. The man certainly knows how to access an ally in this stage of the game."
Ray: "Speaking of allies-"
*JP sprays Ray with a spray bottle, Ray hisses.*

Meanwhile, Matt continues with a barrage of right hands to Dave's skull. Releasing an odd elbow here and there. Matt leans forward towards Dave's head, gouging at his eyes and mouth, trying to literally tear him apart. The weight shift allows Dave to plant both feet, from a lying position, on the mat, and bridge out from under Oliveira. Dave slides under Matt, powering to standing behind him. Dave 180s to face the back of Matt's head, and flows over the "Genius", clutching the back of his head and falling forward in another Neck Snap on Oliveira in this contest. Matt's head lurches forward to the mat, and once released, he returns to a groggy sitting position. Dave uses the momentum from the neck snap to summersault to his feet, bounce off the ropes, and return to Matt with a harsh Shining Wizard, his boot cracking off the back of Oliveira's head. The crowd again in a frenzy from the fast-paced "Lightning". Dave jogs over and retrieves the second trash can from the corner, laying it downby Matt's head. Carter picks up a limp Hardcore Genius, and wraps his head and arms around Matt's waist in a Bear Hug style. Dave looks to give Matt a DRC onto the trash can, but Matt, with both a weight and strength advantage, elbows Dave in the back of the head. This gives Matt the chance to put Dave in a standing headscissor (head between legs -pre-powerbomb) and underhooks the "Lightning"'s arms. Matt powers back, lifting Dave off of the ground, and buckling his legs out from under him. Matt's pelvis and Dave's head crushing the trash can in a Concussion Driver. Dave's body falls forward after the contact, Matt letting out a groan from the impact on his tailbone and rolling over to one side. He staggers, slowly and sorely to his feet, and pulls a rubber-Dave over to the corner. He props up Carter, sitting, leaning on the first turnbuckle, and fetches a trash can lid from the emptied contents in the opposite corner. Matt returns to Dave, standing before him, and scrapes the edge of his combat boot across Carter's face. Matt repeats with another scrape, and another. Hoping to get a good cut going. Matt looks down at the eyes-closed Dave, seeing no new blood, and pins the can lid in-front of his face, wedging it between Dave's shoulder and second turnbuckle just off to the side. Matt takes a step back, and runs to the ropes the same side as the can lid so it covers Dave's face. Matt rebounds and charges, at the last second he sticks out his nearest foot, and lances it into the lid, colliding across Carter's face in a Weapon Face Wash.

JP: "Sweet mercy! Another hard blow from Oliveira! Who knows what that guys got in his head!"
Ray: "Like I said before, I like my guys innovative."

Across the ring, Emblem holds his ribs from a reversed Corkscrew Moonsault. Desperado returns to his feet, wielding the chair. He jabs the chair into Emblem's ribs, and proceeds to guillotine the chair across the "Impulsive"'s throat. Desperado drops the chair across Emblem's chest, then hops over his hapless opponent before running to the ropes. He jumps and springboards off the second, flying full-circle back onto Emblem and the chair in a Lionsault. Crashing onto the metal and bone, he bounces off, holding his own ribs as a proceeding Matt watches on.

[Dave Carter]

After bouncing off, Desperado falls on the mat and grabs his own rib. He then slowly crawls toward th nearest side of the ring, laying his back on the ring ropes, trying to catch his breath a recover at least a little damaged, suffered through this battle. He looks at emotionless Emblem's body lying on the mat not moving after his Lionsault. He then makes a little turn of his head to trow an eye on what's happening at the other side of now rather small, compared to previous stage, area. And the view he sees is probably the last one he wanted to see right now: Oliveira, done with Carter for now, stands at the opposing side of the ring with a slim but long, just from one of the trash cans pulled out, without even a slight brush yet steel pipe in his hands, and an evil grin in his face, looking directly to Desperado. He starts slowly making his way toward the young Desperado, who instantly moves back on his feet with the help of the ropes. Desperado decides to not take any risk against Matt, especially while he's wielding a steel pipe, and acting fast, grabs a chair he placed on Emblem's chest before. Desperado lifts up the chair and looks at Matt uncomfortably, ready to take a swing or block a show from the Hardcore Genius, who doesn't seem to be as happy as he was few seconds ago, before Desperado had a weapon in his hand as well.

~~JP~~
Looks like we're going to see Matt and Desperado going at each other here. Two guys that have been dragged by madness through this match.

~~Ray~~
Why you say that?

~~JP~~
Well Desperado for the last month is obsessed to prove everybody he's the best and Matt... well he's the Hardcore Genius, that says it all.

Both men stand in front of each other, Desperado with the chair lifted up and ready to be used and Matt calmly with the pipe in his hand lowered down, and look to each others eyes, waiting for one of them to make the first move. Oliveira makes the first step, rather quickly lifting up the pipe and swing it as like with a sword, trying to cut Desperado symmetrically in half, but Desperado lifts the chair in front of his head, blocking the shot. The pipe bounces of the chair and Matt is forced to step few steps backwards, but quickly retaliates and rushes toward Desperado again, this time with the pipe set as a spear, as if Matt is trying to stab Desperado with it. Again Desperado sees it coming and blocks it with the chair, but instead of bouncing of, the steel pipe goes through the chair between its back and seat and gets stuck there at about at the center of the pipe. Both Fighty fighty persons look quite surprised at it, but quickly realize this is no place to admire or be amazed by one or another thing, and they get back to the battle. Yet now they start battling for the weapon, got from steel pipe and steel chair "merge". They try to pull it out of each other hands, but seeing as that won't give any results, they start exchanging punches, each using only one fist, as they both keep holding on to the "pipe-chair" with the other hands. The keep trading blows until, visibly with neither of them getting the upper hand, Desperado decides to take the risk. He trows his side of the pipe up, catching Matt in surprise, and sends a trust kick to his stomach. Oliveira starts gasping for air, not holding the pipe tight anymore, and Desperado uses his chance to snatch it out of his hands. He holds the ends of the pipe with one hand each and the half stretched out chair directed down. He then lifts up the chair above Matt, who is bent over trying to catch the wind knocked out of him, and with all strength jabs the chair at two places at once - one part of the chair hitting Matt's upper back and the other one guillotining Oliveira's neck.

~~JP~~
Oh my god, that could have as well shattered two vertebrae of Matt's spine at once!

~~Ray~~
Poor Matt. Don't worry, I'm going to take a good care of you when this all ends.

~~JP~~
I don't really care about you much, Ray, but if you'll try to do anything you think of doing, Matt is simply going to kill you... just like the rest of the roster if you try that on them.

Matt falls with a loud bump on the mat and grabs his neck instantly. He shouts from the pain and rolls around slightly, while Desperado looks down at pleased look in his face. The same moment just a bit further at one corner, Dave has regained his consciousness and starts looking for something he possible use in throw down trash can. Most of his inventory is spread around the ring, but Dave tries to grab something useful from what's left in it. Suddenly he stops looking and pulls out his hand with something in it. Only three words come to Dave's mind, starting with W, T and F respectively after seeing that what he pulled out is a very well know around GHW thing... a donut. He look at the donut for few seconds, thinking about his own words that trash cans will be filled with weapons and random items, but he didn't though that it will be that random.

~~JP~~
What the hell?! A donut?! How the *BEEP* did it got into NeXuS Deathmatch?!

~~Ray~~
Probably my sweetie Hyper Elf dropped it into one of the cans while they were being prepared backstage. Poor Hyper, he's probably dying inside seeing this now.

But it's a match where everything is a weapon and Dave decides to go with that. He uses the ropes to get himself in vertical stance and looks at Desperado, who is about to use the chair and pipe combo on Matt again, damaging him even more. Before he can do that though, Dave takes aim and trows the donut to the head of Desperado with all might, slightly hoping that Hyper Elf won't pop out of nowhere to take revenge for that. The donut hits the target directly, breaking in few pieces and flying across the ring after the impact with the side of Desperado's head. It as well to be a jelly donut, so the jelly splatters one Desperado's head and around the ring. Even though this doesn't damaged Desperado at all, he felt it, but that only got him confused. Desperado starts looking around and sees pieces of donut and some jelly lying on the mat for even a bigger shocker to him. He then turn to the side the donut came, but is too late, as he only see Dave running to him. Carter jumps, putting his legs first and grabbing Desperado's head with them in head scissors. He then spins through the air, twisting Desperado around, and releases the head scissors hold after making 3/4 circle flight through the air, lifting Desperado of his feet and showing him toward one of the cage wall. The ring ropes stops him from hitting the barber wired steel, but he still hits few spikes with his back...

[Desperado]

Desperado falls to the mat, curled in an arc with one back covering the spilling blood from the holes punctured in his back. Desperado looks in anger at Dave who seems to be pleased at his accomplishment. Desperado runs in but is taken down to the mat with a trip to the foot. Dave tries to lock in a submission but Desperado thrives like a gasping fish out of water as he manages to get back to his feet before the boston crab was locked in.

Desperado looks amazed at Dave's speed but soon realises his mistake in judging Dave as he remmebers the bitterness of loosing the TLC match at World Warz. Desperado gives Dave a stern lookmaking sure he is aware of any tricks Dave is thinking about experimenting on him. Desperado pulls a hand up indicating a battle of strength. Dave is pretty surprised but knowing Desperado he thinks it is better not to trust him. Dave backs away lifting the chair previously used between Desperado and Matt. Dave walks in holding the chair in both hands with the only thing in his mind, Desperado skull conecting with steel.

Dave runs in with the chair but Desperado manages to dive to his side as the chair ricochets of the cage behind Desperado sending waves of pain through his arms due to the impact. Dave doesn't stop there as he tries to throw a boot in Desperado's face. Desperado manages to see this coming, saving his foot as if he was diving goalkeeper in a soccer match. Desperado holds onto the foot screwing it clock-wise, dropping Dave to the mat.

Desperado holds onto the ankle with a tight grip, initiating the pain of the submissive force. Dave shreaks in agony as he can not get out of the hold. Desperado is hanging on like a anaconda, wrapping his legs around Dave's, whilst twisting aand turning the ankle.

::[Jimmy Pate]::
"It looks like Desperado may have this match in his bag, I doesn't seem like Dave will last much longer. If Desperado is in the form he is tonight, Dave can say goodbye to that title if Desperado decides to take another shot at that title, which I am more than sure he will. He is one of those guys who is always seeking for revenge."

::[Ray White]::
"I'm not too sure, Dave 'The lightning' somehow always manages to get himself out of whatever wacky situations he gets stuck in. Don't forget the 'Hardcore Genius' Matt Oliviera and Emblem 'The Impulsive'. I think Desperado is the only one without a nickname. Why don't I make one for him. How about, erm , ... The Sexy Beast. Or the sexy submission machine."

::[Jimmy Pate]::
"I think you can keep your ideas to yourslef and let someone like the fans decide what to call him."[/center][/color]

Just when it seems Dave cannot hold much longer, Emblem comes along knocking his boot into Desperado teeth. Both men are surprised to see Desperado still holding onto the submission as blood is pouring through the side of his mouth. Emblem hits another few boots to the forehead bringing about blood to pour from a head that was already busted. Desperado struggles to hold on as the grief is beginning to show as Desperado lets out a few howls of pain.

Emblem, worried that Desperado might win the match grabs Desperado by the throat and begins choking him in an attempt to make him release the hold. Desperado keeps the hold locked for another few seconds, bringing about sweat across Emblem's face from worry and pressure on Dave as he is on the verge of giving up. He seems awfully tense in deep concern for his ankle, which he has reason to believe, is broken.

::[Jimmy Pate]::
"Desperado has had that submision held for over three minutes know, can he last much longer cause from the way Dave looks, it's only a matter of time. The only speculation is, will Emblem choke Desperado before he can make Dave tap. This could be very dangerous. As we all know, Desperado can be a very determined fella and if he decides not to bother with the choking in his throat, he may not make through this match alive."

::[Ray White]::
"Poor Dave, poor Desperado. Can I just climb up their and ease their pains, (*JP gives a stern look) let me just go and kiss them better. (*JP nods his head in frustration indicating a no. He seems to be getting tired of Ray's immature behaviour.) Atleast let me wipe the blood of their beautiful faces and sexy bodie..."

::[Jimmy Pate]::
(Interrupting)"NO!, why can't you just concentrate on the match alone. Why do you have to let your fantasy desires run all over you. Do that again and I'll make sure your much worse than the guys that have been in this match tonight."

::[Ray White]::
"I was only asking."

Just when it seems there is no hope for anyone left as Desperado's face is going purple and Dave is about to give in, Matt Oliviear runs in with a massive leg drop shattering everyone apart. Desperado releases the hold which stimulates in Emblem releasing his chokehold as well. Dave grabs his ankle in agony as he cannot feel anything else in his body besides the throbbing pain. Desperado is rolling across the ground coughing and shaking as he gasps for air to deliver to his aching limbs and paying the debt of Oxygen to his lungs and heart.[/b][/color]
TBCB ...

[emblem]

Emblem stands up, leaving Desperado as he is. He faces Matt, the 'Hardcore genius'. Emblem punches Matt on the jawbone, and stands. Matt moves his face back, and punches Emblem in the head, who staggers abit, and returns to his original position. Emblem turns around and elbows Matt in the chest. Matt feels the place Emblem hits, and retaliates with an Elbow to Emblems back head. Emblem turns around, and feels his forehead, before having a standoff with Matt, nose to nose.

JP: Nothing spectacular, but it's always a classic to watch this.

Ray: especially to see who will, eventaully, will be in a vertical base.

Matt punches Emblem, and follows with an irish whip. emblem bounces off, and is shoulder blocked by Matt, but both men stay in a vertical base. Emblem and Matt runs off again, and shoulder block again. Neither one of them falls, but emblem seems to take his time to keep himsef vertical. Matt uses this time to irish whip Emblem again, and Emblem bounces of the ropes again. Emblem jumps up, and sticks one foot out, connecting to Mat with a leg lariat. Matt falls to the ground, but the adrenaline makes him stand up quickly. Matt grabs Emblem, and places his head between his arm, in a DDT base position. Emblem tries to get free, and grabs Matt legs, laying him on the mat for a double boston crab. Matt counters this by grabbing Emblems leg into a figure four. Emblem screams it up, but signals Matt. Both Dave and Desperado have climbed a turnbuckle...
