Fecca: Well.. Now to one of the most anticipated matches of the evening—The return of Jacob Mitchell not just to professional wrestling, but more importantly to the PWT. Any other circumstance, I would be thrilled, but today? I hope Duke Andrews rips his throat out.
Styles: The leader of Natural Selection—I was a Jake Mitchell fan up until now.. I’m with you Bobby, I hope Andrews teaches him a lesson.
Fecca: .. Speaking from experience- as we both know, Eddie.. it’s easier said than done. If you’re talking talent, Jacob Mitchell.. this guy has it all. But Duke Andrews is no push-over!
And like that the stage was set. It didn’t take long for “Down from the Sky” by Trivium to slam over the PA System.. Much like last week, stepping from behind the curtain was a focused looking Duke Andrews. He scanned the arena on the way down to the ring, his eyes burning through the crowd as he finally hit the ring. Sliding into the ring- he pushed himself up and backed into the corner, spreading his arms over the top rope.. Staring off towards the ramp.
Sabrina: .. In the ring, hailing from Grrrrrrrrrannnnnnndddddddddd Raaaapppppiiiiidddddssss.. Miiiiiiiiichhhhhhhhiiiiiiigaaaaaaannnnnnnnnn.. Weighing in at two-hundred and thirty pounds.. “The Epitome of Pefeeeeeeeectttttiooooooonnnnnnnnnnnn” DUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEE AAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDRRRREEWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Fecca: PWT’s own.. One of our finest.. But his opponent?
Styles: A Bull-Shark.. And that’s putting it lightly..
Before Trivium could fade from the PA System—the heavy rifts of Killswitch Engage’s “End of the Heartache” blasted over the speakers—fans jumped to their feet, stared off along side Duke Andrews towards the ramp as they knew exactly who was coming out now. Moving past the curtain, the tattoo’d arms of The Prodigal Son was seen.. Followed by his body. Stepping out onto the stage- his first match since defeating Drew Stevenson for the PWT Title at Immortal Glory.
Sabrina: .. And coming to the ring—hailing from Honolulu, Haaaaawaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.. Weighing in at two-hundred and sixty five pounds.. the leader of Natttturrrrraaalllllllllll Seeeeeleeeeeeeectioooooooonnnnnnn… “The Innnnnnnnnnnnfffffffffffamoooousssssss” JAAAAACCCCCCCOOOOOOBBBBBBB MIIITTTTTCCHHEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLL!
Jake strolled to the center of the ramp and got down to a knee—bowing his head. Holding the pose for a second, he then pushed himself up and climbed the stairs—stepping onto the ring apron. Hopping over the top rope, he glanced Duke’s way and smirked before he stood tall in the corner—things got off quickly as before Jake’s theme could finish off—Duke rushed’em.
Fecca: HERE WE GO!
Duke threw a hard right hand—but Jake blocked it and fired off a left of his own. Sending Duke back—Jake pressed him against the ropes and whipped him to the corner. On the come-back, Jake snatched Duke off of his feet and planted him into the mat with a STIFF power-slam. Not making the cover—Frank Mason got into position as Jake took full-mount over Duke.
Styles: One important thing to remember about Jake is that he’s a strong Brazilian jiu-jitsu artist. He trains a lot with different MMA Camps..
Duke tried to cover up and make attempts to get out of the mount, but it wasn’t until Jake rolled to the side and took side-control.. Quickly passing over—Jake stood up and stepped back, dusting his hands off and mocking Andrews—Duke was no match for The Prodigal Son in a ground wrestling display- Duke would have to keep it standing if he wanted a chance in this. Duke pushed himself up—he was infuriated with Jake’s actions during the week.. He was burning with anger, but he had to remember to keep that anger in check or else it may cost him the chance of finding open spots against Jake. Circling each other—both men locked up, Jake seemed to have an advantage as Andrews locked Jake in the midsection. The crowd roared as Andrews followed that up with a hard European Uppercut that sent Jake darting backwards. Hitting the ropes- but resting himself against it completely—Andrews sprinted forward, looking to take Jake’s head off with a clothesline, but Jake bounced himself forward off of the ropes and cut Andrew’s attempt off short with a massive Yakuza Kick. Duke’s head snapped backwards as Jake stared down at’em.. Almost as if he wanted to end Duke’s existence.
Fecca: WOW! What a Yakuza Kick by The Prodigal Son—Is it just me Eddie, or is this match extremely.. extremely aggression filled?! It seems like for as much as Duke doesn’t like Jake—Jake doesn’t like Duke!
Styles: Both men are opposites which is why it seems like that. Plus with everything that gone down.. Do you blame them for going at it like this!? Duke said he was going to take Jake out completely.. Jake said he was going to bury Duke—someone’s word has to come true..
Picking Duke up—Jake fired off a few short right hands before whipping Duke into the ropes. Duke bounced off of it but managed to throw off a kick to Jake’s mid-section before dropping Jake on the dome of his head with a DDT. Now Duke took full mount on Jake—the crowd roared in approval as Duke rained down on The Prodigal Son. Hard rights and lefts—all that aggression was being let out—Duke looked like a wild-man. Duke gave Jake too much space though—as Jake managed to push up and roll to the left- getting to a knee. Duke tried to fire off shots to Jake’s face—but Jake managed to grab Duke’s left arm and pull his arm down over his shoulder—taking Duke’s arm out of commission. Duke grabbed at his shoulder as Jake pushed up and grabbed Duke by the back of the head—pulling down- he caught Duke with a quick few knees Muay Thai style. Duke effectively blocked them though and managed to lock his arms beneath Jake’s right leg. Spinning aroind—Duke lifted The Prodigal Son and planted him with a modified Capture Suplex- Jake hit the mat hard as Duke sat up—with a smirk on his face.
Fecca: BEAUTIFUL COUNTER BY DUKE ANDREWS! GO FOR THE COVER DUKE!
Styles: .. Bobby.. If the same guy that went into YOUR house—held YOUR son and made comments about YOUR family- would you look to end it, or punish him more?
Fecca: Know what Eddie, you’re right. KILL THAT SUM’BITCH, DUKE!
Pushing himself up, Duke begun to apply the boot to Jake... Stomp after stomp, it left it’s mark. Jake covered up, but left his ribs exposed as Duke picked up on this and dropped a few knees on it. Grabbing at his ribs—Jake rolled to the side—causing Duke to miss a stomp—allowing Jake the opportunity to kip up to his feet and roll his shoulders forward—showing Duke that he too wasn’t playing games.
Fecca: .. Freakin’ agility by The Infamous! Unbelievable!
Looking on—It set in that Duke wasn’t facing an ordinary talent. Circling each other once more, the crowd was behind Duke for the most part—Jake was a crazy good heel.. people knew that and they loved to boo the guy. Locking up, Duke managed to duck beneath Jake’s oncoming attempt and hit him with a shot to the kidney. Forcing Jake forward, Duke kicked at the back of Jake’s left knee and quickly took him down a peg. Hitting the ropes, Duke bounced off of it and threw off a crazy lariat that snapped Jake’s head forward as Duke connected from the back, causing Jake to go face-first into the mat, holding his head in pain as the crowd popped once more.
Styles: CRAZY IMPACT!
Duke picked Jake up and whipped him into the corner. Following closely behind—Duke managed to hit Jake with a running knee to the gut- doubling him over. Hitting a Spinning Roundhouse- that caused Jake to hit the mat, but he rested against the turnbuckle. Still trying to shake off the lariat to the back of the head—Duke pushed himself backwards and sprinted forward driving the sole of his boot into Jake’s face, hard.. Really hard.. Really.. Really.. really hard.
Fecca: WHAT A FACE WASH THERE! ANDREWS ALMOST BROKE JAKE’S JAW!
Styles: GOOD, DO IT AGAIN!
Falling over, popping his head out of the bottom rope—Duke stepped onto the apron and took a few steps back. In Undertaker fashion—Duke leaped into the air and dropped a huge legdrop over the back of Jake’s head as it was held out under the rope—once more bringing the fans to their feet.
Styles: YES! BREAK HIS STINKIN’ NECK!
Fecca: DUKE IS ON FIRE!
Jake hit the ring-floor, after nearly landing on his neck as Duke didn’t give him a chance to breath- instead picked Jake up and slammed his head into the steel ring-post—but Jake managed to block it, but he was still having to shake off the cob-webs. Instead Duke whipped Jake into the barricade—Jake hit it hard and got down to a knee. Duke rushed at him, looking to once again hit something devastating but Jake acted out of desperation and somehow changed positions so he could hit a drop-toe hold—which was successful. Duke’s face hit the top of the barricade as he bounced backwards—allowing Jake to shoot to his feet and knee’d Duke in the gut. Firing off a right hand, despite being a bit blurry- Jake hit it, but it wasn’t as effective as it would have been from a normal state of mind Jacob Mitchell.
Fecca: Right hand by Jake here..
Styles: Both men are looking to deal out as much punishment as humanly possible..
Decking Andrews with another hard left hand, sending Duke backwards, Jake looked for another running Yakuza Kick—this time Duke ducked beneath it. Popping up behind Jake—Jake turned around and stepped right into a Belly to Back suplex—on the thinly padded floor outside.
Fecca: Ouch! That HAS to hurt!
Frank Mason was at the count of 8 and rolled into the ring, then rolled outside—breaking the count. Mason warned Duke, but Andrews wasn’t having it—he was looking to put Jake down for good. Picking Jake up once more—Duke dragged him over towards the other side of the ring and looked to whip Jake into the steel stairs. Jake managed to catch himself before he hit it and leaped onto the stairs and as Duke came back at him—The Prodigal Son once more showed an amazing amount of agility as he spring-boarded off of the steps and turned his body in mid-air, managing to take Duke down with a Springboard Clothesline—The crowd popped for that, definitely something new out of Jake’s arsenal.
Styles: Just when you think you have him figured out, he goes and changes the entire perception of how you see him. Why must he be so good?! WHY?!
Fecca: Giving the devil his due—Jake has shown to be the complete athlete—from using his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to making use of his agility.. for a six foot six, two hundred and sixty five pound guy, Jake can surely move!
Styles: He may be a bastard, but my god is he unbelievable.. I hate to admit it.
Rolling Duke into the ring, Jake followed behind, finally looking like himself again. Not looking to make the cover—Jake picked Duke up and forced him into the corner. Grabbing him by the head, Jake hit a quick snapmare and hit the ropes. Coming off of it, he flipped over Duke and snapped his head forward.
Styles: MISTER PERFECT STYLE! Eat your heart out McGullicutty!
Standing up quickly, Jake backed into the ropes and hopped onto the second turnbuckle—Jake measured him before leaping forward and dropping an elbow across Duke’s throat—or close to it, this time making the cover as Frank Mason dropped to the mat.
Fecca: COULD THIS BE IT?!
One..
Styles: KICKOUT DUKE!
Two..
Th-
Styles: KICKOUT DUKE!
-E- KICKOUT!
Fecca: IT’S NOT OVER YET!
The crowd blew the roof off of the arena as Jake looked off at Mason, Mason held two fingers in the air as Jake hung his head. Pushing himself up, he pulled Duke up and once more forced him into the corner. Throwing him across the ring to the far-side turnbuckle, when Duke hit it—Jake sprinted after him and launched into the air—looking for a Stinger Splash.. also known as an Infamous Splash, but Duke darted out of the way right at the exact moment all of Jake’s momentum crashed down. Jake’s feet landed on the second rope and Duke quickly acted on it by putting his hands under Jake’s arm—resting him across his back..
Fecca: PERFECTION PLANT?!
Duke pulled Jake forward and tried to hoist him into the air but Jake managed to dead-weight himself and pulled his weight down—in the snapping motion, Jake managed to grab Duke’s head and pulled Duke’s upper torso over Jake’s.. hitting an inverted headlock backbreaker.
Styles: Insurrection outta no-where, damn it!
Both Jake and Duke were getting tired now—fatigue was beginning to fall upon them. Jake was a little slow getting to his feet, but it was clear that he wasn’t looking for any pin attempts here, this was all about proving a point. Getting up slowly, keeping his attention on Duke the entire time—Jake had dropped to a knee and had a fist planted as Duke reached up and grabbed hold of the second rope, pulling himself up to his feet. When he turned around, Jake pushed himself up and moved towards Duke—each man exchanged rights and lefts, slower than normal but the shots was there. Each hit took more and more out of the opponent, as Duke seemed to have gained an edge. Ducking beneath a shot—he hit Jake right a back elbow and then wrapped his leg around Jake’s. Snapping backwards- Duke planted Jake on his back into the mat with a hard Russian Legsweep, getting the fans to stand up again, looking like Duke was having a second wind in this. Making the cover, looking for the win finally- Mason dropped to the mat as Duke didn’t hook the leg.
One..
Two..
T—KICKOUT!
Fecca: .. DAMN IT! SO CLOSE!
Jake’s shoulder popped off of the mat, Andrews sighed as the match continued. Both men got up, Duke was first as he managed to cut Jake’s momentum off with a knee to the gut. Forcing him back towards the ropes—Duke hit a few closed shots, followed by some chops and then topped it off with another kick to the gut. Whipping Jake across to the ropes—Jake came back and Duke hit him with a back elbow that spiked Jake to the ground. Exploding back up—Duke looked to keep Jake grounded with another hard right hand which in fact did it’s job. Jake got back up and Duke dropped him again this time with a standing dropkick that took Jake by surprise, and grounding him. Duke jumped back to his feet as the crowd roared, they could sense that the end was near. Picking Jake up- Duke did a standing switch and held him in a waist-lock. Lifting Jake into the air—looking for a German Suplex—Jake managed to reverse it in mid-air and land on the side of Duke. Jake threw a shot, but Duke caught Jake’s arm and pulled him backwards- dropping to the mat. Keeping Jake locked in position—Duke’s legs quickly went into position as he locked Jake in a triangle choke!
Styles: ANDREWS HAS JAKE LOCKED IN THE COMATOSED! TALK ABOUT IRONY!
Fecca: HE’S GONNA CHOKE JAKE OUT! HE’S GOTTA LOCK IT!
The fans jumped to their feet as they got behind Duke like crazy. He didn’t have it locked in properly, he was trying—but the mistake was made by trying to do this to someone who practiced Mixed Martial Arts. With one heave, Jake now stood over Duke as Duke continued to try and lock the Comatose in.. but before he could Jake locked his hands—the one Duke attempted to choke Jake out with—Jake’s arm with his freehand.. And with one swift movement pulled Duke up—into the air. The crowd went crazy as camera flashes ripped through the arena as Jake with all the power he had left powerbombed Duke—Duke’s head snapped against the mat. Jake didn’t let go, instead he pulled Duke up into another powerbomb position but instead this time—Duke’s body had let go of the lock—Jake turned the falling powerbomb attempt into a MASSIVE Prodigal Drop!
Fecca: DID YOU JUST SEE THAT?!
Styles: JESUS THE GARDENER!
Spinning Duke over—Jake hooked the leg as Mason dropped to the mat..
One..
Two..
Fecca: WOW!
THREE!
Styles: IT’S OVER!
“End of the Heartache” blared through the arena again as Jake rolled off of Duke, looking on—those eyes, it said he wasn’t through yet.
Sabrina: .. And your winner.. JJJJJJACCCCCCCOOOOOOOBBBBBBBBBB MIIIIIIIITCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHELLLLLLLLLLLL!
Styles: .. That was a scary showing of power—It seems like when he was away, Jake crafted his trade—he looked IMPRESSIVE tonight—I’m not shocked or anything.. You can never count him out!
Fecca: As much as it pains me to agree with you Eddie.. Jacob.. Jacob showed that he can back that attitude up.. That whole “destroy and rebuild” mentality.. He looked good tonight.
Pushing himself up, Jake stood down—staring at Andrews, almost like a monster would at it’s prey. Hopping the barricade was Marcus Bain.. Christian Othniel—from the opposite side was Esco and Bedlam—they looked like they were about to do something terrible.
Fecca: .. God..
Joining Jake in the ring, essentially forming a circle around Duke—Jake stepped back and nodded as NS jumped Duke. The crowd grew quiet as they were remorseless; Bedlam looked like a hungry Lion with how savage he was. Othniel and Bain found their spots as well—Esco slipped Duke some of the beat down as well.
Styles: I wouldn’t expect to see Team PWT make the save here—I mean Duke said he was going to show them how to be a leader.. Right?
There was no Team PWT to make the rescue, but leaving it all on the table sprinted Chris Burden. Hitting the ring in stride the fans went crazy as Burden went straight for Bedlam—not before Esco cleaned him with a MAJOR spear!
Fecca: CON JUST OWNED BURDEN! WHAT A SPEAR!
Bedlam tossed Jake his crutch that he was using as Jake caught it in mid-air and smiled. Lifting Duke Andrews up- Natural Selection held him in position as Jake pointed the crutch off at Andrews like he would a rifle—closed one eye and moved forward—breaking the crutch over the side of Andrews’ head.
Styles: WHAT THE HELL?!
Con and Othniel held Burden in position as Jake moved to the side of him, kneeling down—he smirked as he grabbed Burden by the throat as Bain handed Jake the mic.
Jacob: You couldn’t keep out of it, could you.. You had to get involved.. Well, I’ll make good on your promise. You said it’s more likely you’ll get taken out before you get to us and you’re right. This is for Team PWT and for the fence-sitters.. Now Burden has to bite.. the.. bullet.
Spitting in Burden’s face, Jake backed up and took a few steps backwards. Sprinting forward, he kicked Burden in the back of the head causing Burden’s face to slam into the bottom turnbuckle- taking him out of out the ordeal. Andrews was out cold as Jake did the cut-throat taunt towards Bedlam as both he and Othniel got into position Con and Bain picked Andrews up and whipped him towards Bedlam who leaped and wrapped his arm around Andrews’ head, locking in a guillotine choke. As Bedlam grapevined Andrews’ body, Othniel picked Andrews legs up and put him in The Foretelling—Arching Duke’s back in an akward manner.
Fecca: ENOUGH ALREADY! YOU’VE MADE YOUR DAMN POINT! WHERE THE HELL IS SECURITY?!
Holding onto the double submission for a few good seconds, Othniel spiked Andrews legs down and Bedlam let go. Jake moved towards Andrews who was on his stomach and kneeled beside him.
Jacob: .. Seems like I slapped that smug look off of your face, huh? When you wake up from dreamland and you come to your senses make sure you apologize—Beat me? You’re crazy.
Throwing the mic down over Andrews’ body—Natural Selection all embraced their victory at hand as they left the ring. Moving up the ramp—Jake carried the crutch with him and turned back towards the ring. Once more, like he did earlier—he held the crutch like he would a rifle—pointed it Andrews and Burden’s way in the ring and cut that sinister smirk he had—before clicking his right index finger—causing the scene to cut out to commercial break.. Natural Selection struck again—hard.
**Commercial Break**
We come into focus backstage in Jonathan Brooks office. The crowd murmurs as we see Georgia James' mother Ginalynn James. She is beginning to unpack things as if she moving in and in walks Mr. Brooks.
Fecca: OH boy this is gonna be good.
Styles: I'm right there with ya partner.
Jonathan Brooks looks towards his desk and sees Ginalynn sitting behind it and adjusting the seat to her own specifications. Flabbergasted he finally speaks up.
Jonathan Brooks: What're you doing Mrs. James?
Ginalynn smirks...
Ginalynn: I'm your new roomie! Let's just say I'm your new advisor.
Jonathan Brooks chuckles to himself.
Ginalynn: Hey, I have a degree I earned in night school in business management and it looks like you need a partner in handling your business around these parts.
Jonathan Brooks: Are you serious?
Ginalynn: As a heart attack! We're partners in crime now.
Jonathan Brooks: You're a great woman Mrs James but please I don't have time for this.
Ginalynn: Oh, you need me and you need ta keep ya hands off my lil' Gia.
Johnathan Brooks is speechless. He's not winning this woman over or getting her to move.
Jonathan Brooks: Partners? Business partners?
Ginalynn: Yes. Absolutely.
Jonathan Brooks hangs his head and facepalms.
Fecca: Hahaha, and he just wants to get some.
Styles: He's getting some alright it's just not what he expected....
With that we fade to commercial on Ginalynn James rubbing her hands together with a gigantic smile.
**Comercial Break**
