Universal Circuit debut Show - July 2009
*We open up to a studio to find John Randolph sitting behind a desk*
[John:] "Hello and welcome to the second UBL Circuit show. We have quite the card for you, capped off by the #1 contender match for the NEXUS Championship. But that's not all, as we come bearing gifts of debuting wrestlers, returning wrestlers, and well, a whole LOT of wrestlers. Here's the full card for tonight."
*A graphic comes onto the screen*
Armel St. Martin vs. Chuck the Ripper
Tora Katsu/Crimson vs. Dude Fire/Dude Death
Matt Rivers vs. Park Hyun Soo
Daddy Primetime vs. Kid Tanabe
Athrin/Silent Sword vs. Marquis de Douleur/Jean DuBreil
Karl Wunderlin vs. Joe Sweeney
[John:]: "Before we officially start, I have been instructed by Sergeant Drake Yoshida to make a point of saying that Jakob Furis has been terminated from the roster. He will no longer be wrestling for UBL and Drake does NOT "vish" him the best in his future endeavors. I'm not sure what brought this on but Jean Carter told me stuff...some pretty bad stuff, that happened which I'm not at liberty to speak of. And not like "vellness" or "not saying hi to wrestlers backstage" stuff either. In any case, speaking as the first person who had to deal with Furis, and the one who had to deal with him the most...I say "good viddance."
*John lets out an enormously huge sigh of relief and smile.*
[John:] "I feel like 10 pounds lighter, no seriously, I really do."
*John is grinning from ear to ear*
[John:] "And we start things off tonight with two new wrestlers making their UBL debuts. Armel St. Martin is a talented youngster out of the SWA promotion - one that OG-Joshi fans may recognize as the home of Lynn "Lina" Malloy. So you know Armel is an energetic wrestler with a lot of spirit. He is going up against Chuck "The Ripper" Madrox, a talented tag team wrestler in the FPCPP who has decided to take a shot at a solo career in the UBL. This man is as tough as it gets, he even owns his own bar named "Diablo's" if that gives you an idea of the gib he is cut from. Armel St. Martin has the speed advantage but Chuck's nickname comes from "ripping" masks off lucha wrestlers in Mexico, so he is very familiar with handling speed and even has a good deal himself. Let's see who makes the biggest impression in their first match here."
Match #1: Armel St. Martin vs. Chuck the Ripper
(Note: The rest of the videos aren't like this, they are fine, but I was short one pair of audio cables and put FPR BGM on the match since I couldn't record it during the match. So no sound effects but hey, you get two FPR BGM's for the price of one video - cheap as free! And no looping crowd noise! ;D )

Armel St. Martin (X) ["Shot on the Rocks"- 14:09] (O) Chuck The Ripper
*We go back to the studio where John looks impressed.*
[John:] "You have to hand it to both men there - Chuck dominated early but Armel made a very big comeback and actually looked to be in control late in the match. Then Chuck hit a very vicious Complete Shot that he calls the "Shot on the Rocks" and that was lights OUT. Well Armel, you don't have to go home but you can't stay in the ring. I'm sure we'll see more of what Armel can do in the future as well. But you have to believe that Chuck is going to be a serious contender for the NEXUS Title down the line."
[John:] "Two more serious contenders for the NEXUS Title are Julian Caesaro and Perfectshawn Stevens. And really, one would have thought these two would have been competing with each other for that status rather then cooperating. But after Julian viciously turned on Vert Triangle during the previous Open Show and helped Shawn get the win, we were given a very cryptic message from them. Something about Royal Perfection. They said that they would tell us more when they were ready and well, I was told tonight that they are ready! And so here is Julian Caesaro and Perfectshawn Stevens."
*We go back to ringside where we see a Perfect Royalty logo In the middle of the ring. "So Amazing" by Kanye West comes on the speakers, which cause the crowd to get up in confusion. Right when the beat comes in, Perfectshawn, Julian Caesaro and OG-Joshi's Royal Deities (Avalon, Gabriella, and Valencia) comes out on the ramp. All 5 of them have a cocky look on their faces. They are met with a mixed reaction, more boos than cheers. Ceese knocks away the fans' hands away from him Ceese hops on the apron and hops over the ropes. Perfectshawn slides in the ring. They both hold the ropes down for the Deities to get in. Ceese bust out the royale shuffle in the middle of the ring. He tries to get PS to do it, but PS shakes his head no. Ceese ask for a mic. As the song fades away, the crowd start booing hard. The camera pans to see PR signs..Some are for PR and some are against them. Ceese holds up a hand to try and quiet the ruckus*
[Ceese:] "Hey yo....When you see the best in the ring...You show respect...*Ceese clears his throat* Now, I guess its time to explain to y'all..Why me and the Perfect Storm, Perfectshawn Stephens, came together...Its simple...When you see someone that has the same swag..the same mentality..the same drive as you...Its best to make them an ally and rise over the mediocrity and shine brighter than everybody."
*Perfectshawn grabs the mic and he is met with boos. PS just laughs it off*
[PS:] "Ya see, It doesn't matter to us if you boo us...It only line our pockets with more green than you will ever see. We are the best thing going in UBL...We are the reason why you comeback to this arena...We put the asses in the seats..You already know who I am..I am Mr. Trial By Fire...I am the perfect specimen. The other day, A science facility called me up and asked could they use my dna because they never seen a man in my stature before. *Ceese and the ladies clap for that statement* Y'all don't understand..Me and Ceese came together to run the UBL our way...We are the diamonds in the rough..the sooner you get that..The better of you will be."
*PS hands the mic back to Ceese*
[Ceese:] "My homeboi is right. So, Athrin...Sword..Vert...and even that bitch, Omega Churchill...Its best to stand aside than get run over by us..Listen to us for ya own good. So, text your peeps, email them, twitter them, or what ever y'all suckas do..Tell them you was here...Tell them you was here to see the birth of Perfect Royalty..Thats not a fact..."
*Ceese holds up the mic to PS"
[PS:] Thats Perfection....
*The crowd is quiet at first, soaking in the words. Some appear to be impressed by this alliance while others are disgusted. Others are just staring at the Deities in unclean ways. We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Both of those men came into the UBL with a lot of fanfare and have completely backed up their talk about rising to the rop. Drake took an early liking to Ceese based on his exploits in FPCPP and Shawn won the second Trial by FIre match. These guys are going to be dangerous together and the UBL has a new alliance on its hand that it had better be VERY wary of and prepared for."
John: "Speaking of alliances, the Dudes have beem in UBL for around a year now and there has been some talk backstage of growing resentment from them in not getting the attention they deserve. And so they demanded a match tonight. Drake Yoshida is not one to give in to roster demands unless your name rhymes with Karoki Peace and yet, he seemed to do just that here. As a result, the Dudes will be facing Crimson Tide and the debuting Tora Katsu from our new business relationship with ZIP Japan. To the ring we go."
*Crimson is in the ring when Tora Katsu makes his entrance and is greeted by applause and ZIP Japan signs. The Dudes come to the ring next in stoic fashion, causing the crowd to remain silent.*

Tora Katsu/Crimson Tide (X) [Rounding Body Press - 17:16] (O) Dude Fire/Dude Death
*We go back to the studio where John looks more relaxed.*
[John:] "And a very commanding performance from the Dudes there. Tora certainly looked impressive and Crimson continued some of the competitiveness we saw him have against Athrin at the last show. But the teamwork of the Dudes was too much and they appeared very motivated. The question right now is as to the whereabouts of their leader, Dude Thunder. Hopefully we find out in the coming weeks."
[John:] "And our next match involves a growing fan favorite, Park Hyun Soo. In a rare sharing of opinion with fans, Drake Yoshida himself believes Park has all the talent needed to rise to the top, he just needs some more confidence and experience. And so in addition to competing in the Battalion league, Park has been one of the few wrestlers to be allowed to also wrestle on the Reserve Roster at the same time. His opponent tonight is another debuting wrestler and goes by the name of Matt-
*John has a double take with the card and looks confused.*
[John:] "That's strange, I could have sworn that said Matt Rivers before. But apparently, Park is going up against someone named Luke Kisiera. Hrm, that name sounds familiar, I think Jean mentioned that name to me before in passing as I was stari...lost in thought. Well, the card says Luke Kisiera so I guess he is the one making his debut tonight. Let's see what he can do against Park Hyun Soo."
*We go back to ringside where Park is already walking around the ring, high fiving the fans. He gets inside and begins stretching when some rather low tech music comes onto the speakers. A thin man with long hair and orange tights comes out from the curtain...goes back through the curtain, comes back out with a banana picker that is caught in the curtain, drops it, and then walks out to the ramp. (?). He then goes around to the fans, grabbing some of their food, beverages, and personal items, before heading to the ring. The ref, Guybrush, eyes him suspiciously and walks over to check Luke for weapons. Luke nervously laughs as Guybrush manages to empty out 10 wooden nickels, wax lips, a rubber chicken, and an "Ask Me about Loom" button. Guybrush sighs and takes the items outside the ring and then starts the match.*
Match #3: Luke Kisiera vs. Park Hyun Soo
Park immediately lays into Luke with a few hard chops and Luke bails out, holding his chest and looking at Park as if he just tried to kill him. Luke hesitates for a second (almost as if he was deciding what to say) and screams out "What the heck was that about!?" Park shrugs and chases after Luke, who gets back into the ring after grabbing a kendo stick. Park, being no stranger to hardcore wrestling under the tutelage of Stuart Robinson, grabs his own stick. The two face each other in the middle of the ring in a stand off. Guybrush has just about given up on attempting to preserve order here and seems to be praying.
Luke walks slowly forward and says out loud:
"You wave your stick like a feather duster!"
Guybrush's sighs heavily and shakes his head. Apparently his monkey gods did not answer his prayer. Park hits the stick out of Luke's hand, leading to a shocked and irritated expression on Luke's face.
[Luke:] "Hey that's not how this works!! First I say something then you answer with a humorous retort-"
How's THIS for a retort? Park kicks him in the stomach and then executes a Tiger Driver! Luke is out and Guybrush counts to 3 and quickly gets out of there before anyone sees him blushing at what just occurred. This match is over and Park has won. Luke remains on the mat, out cold.
Luke (X) ["MetsuDriver" - 5:30] (O) Park Hyun Soo
*We go back to the studio where John is just staring.*
[John:] "Yeah, not really sure what happened there or why or how it ever could have but well, it did. And as confused as we all were about what just happened, nothing could prepare us for what we saw next. Jean Carter had rushed from backstage to the ringside and as we tried to get a feed on her running...*John smiles* just because... our cameras picked up on someone else. You folks watching at home are in for a treat, cause standing in a UBL hallway is none other then...."
*The camera cuts to a rolling luggage bag.
[John:] "What? Not who you were expecting? What if I told you that the rolling luggage bag was being held by none other then former FPCPP Champion...Elwood Allen!"
*The camera goes back to the hallway where see a rather confused looking Elwood.*
[Elwood:] Okay wait, didn't I pass this way already? Jeez, I've been wrestling for years now and I still can't get used to how same-y these backstage areas look, I can never figure out where I'm going.
*He pulls out of map of the arena from his bag, trying to figure out where exactly he is. From the looks of it he's not doing so well.*
[Elwood:] Okay, so if that's where the ring is and I'm here, that means that I am... lost. Great. This is stupid. I'll just sit right here and wait for someone to pass by. There's plenty of people running around during these shows, so I'm bound to find someone who can take me to see this Yoshida character.
*Elwood plops himself down onto a step ladder and pulls out an “Amazing Spider-Man” comic book from his luggage bag , getting comfortable as he waits for someone to help him. He isn't there long though, as just a few seconds later we see none other then “Mean” Jean Carter running by, her teddy bear clutched in her arms and a look of concern on her face.*
[MJC:] OHMIGAWSH, I TOLD him to be careful out there! I hope Park didn't hurt him too bad!
*As Jean dashes down the halls (like a one horse open sleigh), she notices Elwood sitting in the hallway and comes to a sudden stop, sliding a bit on the floors. She has a curious look on her face.
[MJC:] Um... hello?
[Elwood:] Oh, good.
*The FPCPP star sets aside his comic and looks up...*
[Elwood:] Hi, can you...
*...only to be left awe struck at the sight of the lovely Jean Carter. She tends to have that effect on guys. Clearly used to this kind of response but still not sure why she keeps getting it, Jean is patient and smiles, waiting a few moments before snapping him out of it.
[MJC:] Umm, hello in there, you okay?
[Elwood:] Oh, sorry. Guess I spaced out there for a second.
[MJC:] Okay then... so can I help you?
*With this Jean gives .... another look over, and quickly realizes something.
[MJC:] Wait a sec, I don't think I've ever seen you around here before. Are you new here?
[Elwood:] Umm... kinda. I'm Elwood Allen.
[MJC:] Jean Carter, at your service!
*The two shake hands, Elwood looking rather nervous, but maintaining his cool.
[MJC:] So what can I do you for, Elwood?
[Elwood:] Well you see, I'm here to see Mr. Yoshida. He contacted me a long while ago about a “business opportunity”, and since my new contract lets me wrestle in other promotions now I figured I'd see if he was still interested.
[MJC:] Oh, so you're a wrestler! I see.
*A moment passes, then it seems to click in the young lady's head.
[MJC:] Wait, you wanted to see Mr. Yoshida right now?
[Elwood:] If I could.
[MJC:] Well, you see... I'm sorry to break it to you, but I don't really think that's possible. I mean, we kinda have a show running right now.
[Elwood:] Yeah well, I couldn't really get a hold of him for a meeting, and I figured that if there's one time I knew I'd be here it'd be during a show.
[MJC:] Maybe so, but he's ALWAYS busy during the shows, he never talks to people while they're going on. Sorry.
[Elwood:] Shoot. Looks like I came all this way for nothing.
*Jean can tell that he's upset, and you can tell she feels bad about it... but then she has an idea. She whips out a “HARRO KENTA!" notepad and jots something down.
[MJC:] Okay, look. You seem like you're on the up and up, so here's what we'll do. I can't help you tonight, but if you show up tomorrow at the time and place on the paper, I can take you to Mr. Yoshida and he'll give you his full... well, most of his attention. Sound good?
[Elwood:] Um... sure.
[MJC:] Super!
*Jean tears the page from the notepad and hands it off to Elwood.
[MJC:] Now don't keep a girl waiting, okay?
*Jean gives him a smile and a wink, and a man of weaker constitution would've passed out at this point. In fact, at that very moment two paramedics pass by carrying an IV drip and a hefty amount of bandages, perhaps on their way to the ring for...
[MJC:] GAK!! Luke! I totally forgot, I have to get going right now! Bye Elwood, nice meeting you!
*Jean rushes off, only stopping to turn and wave to Elwood for a moment before continuing. He waves back at her, not seeming to mind that his plans to see Mr. Yoshida have been cut off for the night. When the blonde haired beauty is out of sight, this finally seems to dawn on him.
[Elwood:] Figures this bum wouldn't be around.
*Elwood looks down at the note, with the I's crossed with hearts, and he smiles widely.
[Elwood:] Still, I guess this trip wasn't a total loss.
*The smiles quickly fades away though when he realizes he has another problem.
[Elwood:] Wait... now how do I get out of here?
*The almost ghostly cherubic sounds of KENTA! Army are then heard and appear to be growing nearer and nearer as the scene fades and we go back to the studio where John's expression is a combination of excited and frustrated.*
[John:] "Having Elwood on the roster is obviously a HUGE boon for UBL but also, it looks like Jean has some MORE 'fans', huh? .. Wonderful! Yanno what, let's just move on."
*Commercials air for the upcoming OG-Joshi Renaissance PPV. The commercial consists solely of World Champion Holly holding a picture of Visper Karr and laughing at her. $20,000 was spent on the commercial.*
[John:] "Our next match involves Kid Tanabe, a member of the successful Ni-San Dan alliance, taking on an arrogant man who has made quite a name for himself around the professional wrestling circuit, Daddy Prime Time. DPT suffered a very narrow loss to Dambman last year during an Open Show and has wanted to earn himself a rematch to avenge that defeat. Drake has said he can do so by going through and beating each member of Dambman's Ni-San Dan. And he will start with Kid Tanabe."
*We see Kid Tanabe standing in the ring as DPT makes his way down the ramp to a chorus of boos which he ignores. Before they can lock up, Drake Yoshida comes out with a microphone. DPT stifles a smile. Drake appears to have a bandage on his throat and is holding it with a pained expression as he speaks.*
[Drake:] "It is embarrassing to admit that we have had a second 'miscommunication' in the line-up for tonight. Not only was Luke Kisiera not supposed to be in the ring, or apparently anywhere near it, but Kid Tanabe will not be the opponent for DPT tonight. Rather, his Ni-San Dan teammate KMD shall be."
*Kid Tanabe looks confused while DPT grins. The crowd immediately starts a "bull-sh*t" chant.*
[Drake:] "Yes I must apologize to KMD for being put in a match he was not prepared for. The same goes for Mr. Prime Time, though I must confess, a man of his talent and standing is ready for any member of the Ni-San Dan. In fact, any man that praises our Emperor, Orochi Geese, as DPT has done so graciously and inspiringly in FPCPP, is certainly a man in control of his own destiny here in UBL. As for Ni-San Dan, especially Dambman, I'm sure you can learn a lot from Mr. Prime Time."
*Drake smiles as Kid Tanabe looks furious. He looks about ready to take a swing at DPT when Dambman and KMD come out. A cool headed Dambman helps Kid calm down while KMD gets ready for the match.*
[Drake:] "My best wishes for a competitive and fair encounter."

KMD (X) ["Whose ya Daddy"- 16:05] (O) Daddy Prime Time
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Fans, I don't need to say what we're all thinking, but you have to hand it to KMD for doing his best to prepare on the spot for this match. It certainly seemed as if DPT was 'ready' for KMD too, leading us to believe perhaps some were more surprised then others by this last minute wrestler switch. In any case, DPT has bested a member of Ni-San Dan and continues on his trail to get a rematch against Dambman."
[John:] "And speaking of rematches, the next encounter is a rematch of sorts. At the previous Circuit Show, Silent Sword went up against the Marquis de Douleur. After some questionable antics occurred IN the match, both Marquis and Jean went to attack Sword afterwards and attempt to collect his blood. His student, Athrin Cross, came to his aid with a very dangerous blade he calls the "Kusarigama" and ran off the Bastille of Blood. Then at the Open Show, Athrin and Sword came to Owen "The Omega" Churchill's aid when the Bastille attacked him. So with a lot of "bad blood", sorry, between the two teams, we are finally going to get a match. Let us see who comes out ahead and if blood is thicker then puns."
*Back to ringside where each team is already in the ring and is staring at each other.*
Match #5: Athrin/Sword vs. Marquis/Jean DuBreil
Sword and Marquis waste no time in resuming their fight from last week and become the legal men. Apparently unappreciative of Marquis numerous past efforts to "relieve his blood pressure" with a sickle, Sword begins kicking the literal ass, thighs, and legs of Marquis. This brings in Jean, illegally, who doubleteams Sword with Marquis, getting control back for the Bastille. The two work on Sword in the corner with kicks to his limbs, trying to soften him up for submission attempts and take away his primary offense. Every time Athrin goes over to try to help, the referee (Coach McGuirk) sends him back.
After Athrin is forced to watch a spike piledriver in the corner, he loses his cool and runs into the ring, shoving Coach aside. Marquis has the wherewithall to reach into his tights and throw salt into Athrin's eyes! Marquis then taunts him by rubbing his own eyes and crying while Jean grabs Athrin by the tights and throws him out of the ring. As Athrin tries to get the salt out of his eyes and recover, Sword is still on the mat. Marquis and Jean look at him, smile at each other, start gesturing to the back. What is this!?
It's Vulcan Vesuvius! He's walking with a purpose into the ring and as Sword finally gets up, he backs into Vulcan, not realizing who it is. Vulcan grabs him by the throat and throws him into the corner like a rag doll! Vulcan then whips Marquis and Jean into Sword who each hit him with flying leg lariats! Sword wobbles out and falls right between Vulcan's legs, who hoists him into a powerbomb and holds it, demonstrating his awesome power. Meanwhile Athrin has begun to get up and looks nervous at the 3 on 1 scene in the ring. He appears frozen, staring at the scene, unsure of what to do, but this man isn't -
It's Omega Churchill! And he has a friend - a steel chair! He runs into the ring, smashes Marquis with the chair and then Vulcan. It doesn't initially faze the giant but he smashes again and again and again! Finally the giant Vesuvius falls down to one knee: Sword having already fallen backwards at the force of the chair shots. As Vulcan is on one knee, Sword musters up what's left of his energy to hit Vulcan with a shining wizard!! And just as Jean goes to get his own blade to turn the tide back, Athrin has grabbed his kusarigama!! Jean and Vulcan flee from the ring as Sword, Athrin, and Omega stand tall. Jean, Marquis and Vulcan make menacing gestures at the three until Genji Security comes to clear out the situation.
Athrin/Sword (O) [Disqualification - Vesuvius't - 12:00] (X) Marquis/DuBreil
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Wow!! And just when it looked like Athrin and Sword were in real trouble there, "The Omega" comes to their aid just as they did for him last time. I don't know what business Vulcan thinks he has with Sword and Athrin or if he's now simply aligned with the Bastille of Blood, but things have just gotten a lot more violent between these two factions. And if people, including me, had any doubt that the Bastille were dangerous, their actions with a monster such as Vulcan certainly should put those doubts to rest. As for Omega, he is beginning to show that his Revolution may be furthered by worthy allies."
[John:] "And now we come to the main event - a match that Karl Wunderlin has asked for ever since being narrowly beaten at the end of the first Trial by Fire match by Joe Sweeney. Karl had claimed that he was more dominant in that match and that Joe just stole a victory. And given Karl's superior performance in the NEXUS Title Tournament, it's quite possible that Karl has a point. It's also quite possible that Drake Yoshida agrees with him. And so despite the fact that Joe Sweeney earned the right to challenge for the NEXUS Title due to his Trial by Fire win, Drake wanted to settle this rivalry decisively before either men got the Title shot. Therefore, whoever wins this match will face Gene Starr for the NEXUS Title at the next UBL Reserves show. Let's get to the ring and find out who Gene Starr's first Title defense will be against."

Karl Wunderlin (O) ["Double Arm Wonderplex" - 19:56] (X) Joe Sweeney
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Karl Wunderlin made a huge statement: He not only showed that he could beat Joe Sweeney and that perhaps he WAS robbed at the first Trial by Fire match, but he further showed that he is one of the top competitors around here. He took a lot of punishment but was the one to end this match decisively. You can certainly see the motivation in this man's eyes to challenge for Gene Starr's Nexus Title."
[John:] "And with that, we will see you at the next Open Show where said Nexus Title will be on the line, along with a whole lot of pride after some of the thing we have seen tonight. Perfect Royalty being formed, Vulcan Vesuvius seemingly joining the Bastille of Blood, and a whole lot of new wrestlers looking to be noticed. And word in the office is that there's a new Battallion show right around the corner, emanating from UBL's home arena and featuring a blockbuster main event of the Orochi Army vs. the Dod Squod. And from what I heard about that show from Jean Carter, it is not to be missed once she gets her blogspot account working again (apparently it was hacked by internet cats). The summer is heating up in UBL and thank you to Jean for giving me that closing line. Good night everyone."
*We open up to a studio to find John Randolph sitting behind a desk*
[John:] "Hello and welcome to the second UBL Circuit show. We have quite the card for you, capped off by the #1 contender match for the NEXUS Championship. But that's not all, as we come bearing gifts of debuting wrestlers, returning wrestlers, and well, a whole LOT of wrestlers. Here's the full card for tonight."
*A graphic comes onto the screen*
Armel St. Martin vs. Chuck the Ripper
Tora Katsu/Crimson vs. Dude Fire/Dude Death
Matt Rivers vs. Park Hyun Soo
Daddy Primetime vs. Kid Tanabe
Athrin/Silent Sword vs. Marquis de Douleur/Jean DuBreil
Karl Wunderlin vs. Joe Sweeney
[John:]: "Before we officially start, I have been instructed by Sergeant Drake Yoshida to make a point of saying that Jakob Furis has been terminated from the roster. He will no longer be wrestling for UBL and Drake does NOT "vish" him the best in his future endeavors. I'm not sure what brought this on but Jean Carter told me stuff...some pretty bad stuff, that happened which I'm not at liberty to speak of. And not like "vellness" or "not saying hi to wrestlers backstage" stuff either. In any case, speaking as the first person who had to deal with Furis, and the one who had to deal with him the most...I say "good viddance."
*John lets out an enormously huge sigh of relief and smile.*
[John:] "I feel like 10 pounds lighter, no seriously, I really do."
*John is grinning from ear to ear*
[John:] "And we start things off tonight with two new wrestlers making their UBL debuts. Armel St. Martin is a talented youngster out of the SWA promotion - one that OG-Joshi fans may recognize as the home of Lynn "Lina" Malloy. So you know Armel is an energetic wrestler with a lot of spirit. He is going up against Chuck "The Ripper" Madrox, a talented tag team wrestler in the FPCPP who has decided to take a shot at a solo career in the UBL. This man is as tough as it gets, he even owns his own bar named "Diablo's" if that gives you an idea of the gib he is cut from. Armel St. Martin has the speed advantage but Chuck's nickname comes from "ripping" masks off lucha wrestlers in Mexico, so he is very familiar with handling speed and even has a good deal himself. Let's see who makes the biggest impression in their first match here."
Match #1: Armel St. Martin vs. Chuck the Ripper
(Note: The rest of the videos aren't like this, they are fine, but I was short one pair of audio cables and put FPR BGM on the match since I couldn't record it during the match. So no sound effects but hey, you get two FPR BGM's for the price of one video - cheap as free! And no looping crowd noise! ;D )

Armel St. Martin (X) ["Shot on the Rocks"- 14:09] (O) Chuck The Ripper
*We go back to the studio where John looks impressed.*
[John:] "You have to hand it to both men there - Chuck dominated early but Armel made a very big comeback and actually looked to be in control late in the match. Then Chuck hit a very vicious Complete Shot that he calls the "Shot on the Rocks" and that was lights OUT. Well Armel, you don't have to go home but you can't stay in the ring. I'm sure we'll see more of what Armel can do in the future as well. But you have to believe that Chuck is going to be a serious contender for the NEXUS Title down the line."
[John:] "Two more serious contenders for the NEXUS Title are Julian Caesaro and Perfectshawn Stevens. And really, one would have thought these two would have been competing with each other for that status rather then cooperating. But after Julian viciously turned on Vert Triangle during the previous Open Show and helped Shawn get the win, we were given a very cryptic message from them. Something about Royal Perfection. They said that they would tell us more when they were ready and well, I was told tonight that they are ready! And so here is Julian Caesaro and Perfectshawn Stevens."
*We go back to ringside where we see a Perfect Royalty logo In the middle of the ring. "So Amazing" by Kanye West comes on the speakers, which cause the crowd to get up in confusion. Right when the beat comes in, Perfectshawn, Julian Caesaro and OG-Joshi's Royal Deities (Avalon, Gabriella, and Valencia) comes out on the ramp. All 5 of them have a cocky look on their faces. They are met with a mixed reaction, more boos than cheers. Ceese knocks away the fans' hands away from him Ceese hops on the apron and hops over the ropes. Perfectshawn slides in the ring. They both hold the ropes down for the Deities to get in. Ceese bust out the royale shuffle in the middle of the ring. He tries to get PS to do it, but PS shakes his head no. Ceese ask for a mic. As the song fades away, the crowd start booing hard. The camera pans to see PR signs..Some are for PR and some are against them. Ceese holds up a hand to try and quiet the ruckus*
[Ceese:] "Hey yo....When you see the best in the ring...You show respect...*Ceese clears his throat* Now, I guess its time to explain to y'all..Why me and the Perfect Storm, Perfectshawn Stephens, came together...Its simple...When you see someone that has the same swag..the same mentality..the same drive as you...Its best to make them an ally and rise over the mediocrity and shine brighter than everybody."
*Perfectshawn grabs the mic and he is met with boos. PS just laughs it off*
[PS:] "Ya see, It doesn't matter to us if you boo us...It only line our pockets with more green than you will ever see. We are the best thing going in UBL...We are the reason why you comeback to this arena...We put the asses in the seats..You already know who I am..I am Mr. Trial By Fire...I am the perfect specimen. The other day, A science facility called me up and asked could they use my dna because they never seen a man in my stature before. *Ceese and the ladies clap for that statement* Y'all don't understand..Me and Ceese came together to run the UBL our way...We are the diamonds in the rough..the sooner you get that..The better of you will be."
*PS hands the mic back to Ceese*
[Ceese:] "My homeboi is right. So, Athrin...Sword..Vert...and even that bitch, Omega Churchill...Its best to stand aside than get run over by us..Listen to us for ya own good. So, text your peeps, email them, twitter them, or what ever y'all suckas do..Tell them you was here...Tell them you was here to see the birth of Perfect Royalty..Thats not a fact..."
*Ceese holds up the mic to PS"
[PS:] Thats Perfection....
*The crowd is quiet at first, soaking in the words. Some appear to be impressed by this alliance while others are disgusted. Others are just staring at the Deities in unclean ways. We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Both of those men came into the UBL with a lot of fanfare and have completely backed up their talk about rising to the rop. Drake took an early liking to Ceese based on his exploits in FPCPP and Shawn won the second Trial by FIre match. These guys are going to be dangerous together and the UBL has a new alliance on its hand that it had better be VERY wary of and prepared for."
John: "Speaking of alliances, the Dudes have beem in UBL for around a year now and there has been some talk backstage of growing resentment from them in not getting the attention they deserve. And so they demanded a match tonight. Drake Yoshida is not one to give in to roster demands unless your name rhymes with Karoki Peace and yet, he seemed to do just that here. As a result, the Dudes will be facing Crimson Tide and the debuting Tora Katsu from our new business relationship with ZIP Japan. To the ring we go."
*Crimson is in the ring when Tora Katsu makes his entrance and is greeted by applause and ZIP Japan signs. The Dudes come to the ring next in stoic fashion, causing the crowd to remain silent.*

Tora Katsu/Crimson Tide (X) [Rounding Body Press - 17:16] (O) Dude Fire/Dude Death
*We go back to the studio where John looks more relaxed.*
[John:] "And a very commanding performance from the Dudes there. Tora certainly looked impressive and Crimson continued some of the competitiveness we saw him have against Athrin at the last show. But the teamwork of the Dudes was too much and they appeared very motivated. The question right now is as to the whereabouts of their leader, Dude Thunder. Hopefully we find out in the coming weeks."
[John:] "And our next match involves a growing fan favorite, Park Hyun Soo. In a rare sharing of opinion with fans, Drake Yoshida himself believes Park has all the talent needed to rise to the top, he just needs some more confidence and experience. And so in addition to competing in the Battalion league, Park has been one of the few wrestlers to be allowed to also wrestle on the Reserve Roster at the same time. His opponent tonight is another debuting wrestler and goes by the name of Matt-
*John has a double take with the card and looks confused.*
[John:] "That's strange, I could have sworn that said Matt Rivers before. But apparently, Park is going up against someone named Luke Kisiera. Hrm, that name sounds familiar, I think Jean mentioned that name to me before in passing as I was stari...lost in thought. Well, the card says Luke Kisiera so I guess he is the one making his debut tonight. Let's see what he can do against Park Hyun Soo."
*We go back to ringside where Park is already walking around the ring, high fiving the fans. He gets inside and begins stretching when some rather low tech music comes onto the speakers. A thin man with long hair and orange tights comes out from the curtain...goes back through the curtain, comes back out with a banana picker that is caught in the curtain, drops it, and then walks out to the ramp. (?). He then goes around to the fans, grabbing some of their food, beverages, and personal items, before heading to the ring. The ref, Guybrush, eyes him suspiciously and walks over to check Luke for weapons. Luke nervously laughs as Guybrush manages to empty out 10 wooden nickels, wax lips, a rubber chicken, and an "Ask Me about Loom" button. Guybrush sighs and takes the items outside the ring and then starts the match.*
Match #3: Luke Kisiera vs. Park Hyun Soo
Park immediately lays into Luke with a few hard chops and Luke bails out, holding his chest and looking at Park as if he just tried to kill him. Luke hesitates for a second (almost as if he was deciding what to say) and screams out "What the heck was that about!?" Park shrugs and chases after Luke, who gets back into the ring after grabbing a kendo stick. Park, being no stranger to hardcore wrestling under the tutelage of Stuart Robinson, grabs his own stick. The two face each other in the middle of the ring in a stand off. Guybrush has just about given up on attempting to preserve order here and seems to be praying.
Luke walks slowly forward and says out loud:
"You wave your stick like a feather duster!"
Guybrush's sighs heavily and shakes his head. Apparently his monkey gods did not answer his prayer. Park hits the stick out of Luke's hand, leading to a shocked and irritated expression on Luke's face.
[Luke:] "Hey that's not how this works!! First I say something then you answer with a humorous retort-"
How's THIS for a retort? Park kicks him in the stomach and then executes a Tiger Driver! Luke is out and Guybrush counts to 3 and quickly gets out of there before anyone sees him blushing at what just occurred. This match is over and Park has won. Luke remains on the mat, out cold.
Luke (X) ["MetsuDriver" - 5:30] (O) Park Hyun Soo
*We go back to the studio where John is just staring.*
[John:] "Yeah, not really sure what happened there or why or how it ever could have but well, it did. And as confused as we all were about what just happened, nothing could prepare us for what we saw next. Jean Carter had rushed from backstage to the ringside and as we tried to get a feed on her running...*John smiles* just because... our cameras picked up on someone else. You folks watching at home are in for a treat, cause standing in a UBL hallway is none other then...."
*The camera cuts to a rolling luggage bag.
[John:] "What? Not who you were expecting? What if I told you that the rolling luggage bag was being held by none other then former FPCPP Champion...Elwood Allen!"
*The camera goes back to the hallway where see a rather confused looking Elwood.*
[Elwood:] Okay wait, didn't I pass this way already? Jeez, I've been wrestling for years now and I still can't get used to how same-y these backstage areas look, I can never figure out where I'm going.
*He pulls out of map of the arena from his bag, trying to figure out where exactly he is. From the looks of it he's not doing so well.*
[Elwood:] Okay, so if that's where the ring is and I'm here, that means that I am... lost. Great. This is stupid. I'll just sit right here and wait for someone to pass by. There's plenty of people running around during these shows, so I'm bound to find someone who can take me to see this Yoshida character.
*Elwood plops himself down onto a step ladder and pulls out an “Amazing Spider-Man” comic book from his luggage bag , getting comfortable as he waits for someone to help him. He isn't there long though, as just a few seconds later we see none other then “Mean” Jean Carter running by, her teddy bear clutched in her arms and a look of concern on her face.*
[MJC:] OHMIGAWSH, I TOLD him to be careful out there! I hope Park didn't hurt him too bad!
*As Jean dashes down the halls (like a one horse open sleigh), she notices Elwood sitting in the hallway and comes to a sudden stop, sliding a bit on the floors. She has a curious look on her face.
[MJC:] Um... hello?
[Elwood:] Oh, good.
*The FPCPP star sets aside his comic and looks up...*
[Elwood:] Hi, can you...
*...only to be left awe struck at the sight of the lovely Jean Carter. She tends to have that effect on guys. Clearly used to this kind of response but still not sure why she keeps getting it, Jean is patient and smiles, waiting a few moments before snapping him out of it.
[MJC:] Umm, hello in there, you okay?
[Elwood:] Oh, sorry. Guess I spaced out there for a second.
[MJC:] Okay then... so can I help you?
*With this Jean gives .... another look over, and quickly realizes something.
[MJC:] Wait a sec, I don't think I've ever seen you around here before. Are you new here?
[Elwood:] Umm... kinda. I'm Elwood Allen.
[MJC:] Jean Carter, at your service!
*The two shake hands, Elwood looking rather nervous, but maintaining his cool.
[MJC:] So what can I do you for, Elwood?
[Elwood:] Well you see, I'm here to see Mr. Yoshida. He contacted me a long while ago about a “business opportunity”, and since my new contract lets me wrestle in other promotions now I figured I'd see if he was still interested.
[MJC:] Oh, so you're a wrestler! I see.
*A moment passes, then it seems to click in the young lady's head.
[MJC:] Wait, you wanted to see Mr. Yoshida right now?
[Elwood:] If I could.
[MJC:] Well, you see... I'm sorry to break it to you, but I don't really think that's possible. I mean, we kinda have a show running right now.
[Elwood:] Yeah well, I couldn't really get a hold of him for a meeting, and I figured that if there's one time I knew I'd be here it'd be during a show.
[MJC:] Maybe so, but he's ALWAYS busy during the shows, he never talks to people while they're going on. Sorry.
[Elwood:] Shoot. Looks like I came all this way for nothing.
*Jean can tell that he's upset, and you can tell she feels bad about it... but then she has an idea. She whips out a “HARRO KENTA!" notepad and jots something down.
[MJC:] Okay, look. You seem like you're on the up and up, so here's what we'll do. I can't help you tonight, but if you show up tomorrow at the time and place on the paper, I can take you to Mr. Yoshida and he'll give you his full... well, most of his attention. Sound good?
[Elwood:] Um... sure.
[MJC:] Super!
*Jean tears the page from the notepad and hands it off to Elwood.
[MJC:] Now don't keep a girl waiting, okay?
*Jean gives him a smile and a wink, and a man of weaker constitution would've passed out at this point. In fact, at that very moment two paramedics pass by carrying an IV drip and a hefty amount of bandages, perhaps on their way to the ring for...
[MJC:] GAK!! Luke! I totally forgot, I have to get going right now! Bye Elwood, nice meeting you!
*Jean rushes off, only stopping to turn and wave to Elwood for a moment before continuing. He waves back at her, not seeming to mind that his plans to see Mr. Yoshida have been cut off for the night. When the blonde haired beauty is out of sight, this finally seems to dawn on him.
[Elwood:] Figures this bum wouldn't be around.
*Elwood looks down at the note, with the I's crossed with hearts, and he smiles widely.
[Elwood:] Still, I guess this trip wasn't a total loss.
*The smiles quickly fades away though when he realizes he has another problem.
[Elwood:] Wait... now how do I get out of here?
*The almost ghostly cherubic sounds of KENTA! Army are then heard and appear to be growing nearer and nearer as the scene fades and we go back to the studio where John's expression is a combination of excited and frustrated.*
[John:] "Having Elwood on the roster is obviously a HUGE boon for UBL but also, it looks like Jean has some MORE 'fans', huh? .. Wonderful! Yanno what, let's just move on."
*Commercials air for the upcoming OG-Joshi Renaissance PPV. The commercial consists solely of World Champion Holly holding a picture of Visper Karr and laughing at her. $20,000 was spent on the commercial.*
[John:] "Our next match involves Kid Tanabe, a member of the successful Ni-San Dan alliance, taking on an arrogant man who has made quite a name for himself around the professional wrestling circuit, Daddy Prime Time. DPT suffered a very narrow loss to Dambman last year during an Open Show and has wanted to earn himself a rematch to avenge that defeat. Drake has said he can do so by going through and beating each member of Dambman's Ni-San Dan. And he will start with Kid Tanabe."
*We see Kid Tanabe standing in the ring as DPT makes his way down the ramp to a chorus of boos which he ignores. Before they can lock up, Drake Yoshida comes out with a microphone. DPT stifles a smile. Drake appears to have a bandage on his throat and is holding it with a pained expression as he speaks.*
[Drake:] "It is embarrassing to admit that we have had a second 'miscommunication' in the line-up for tonight. Not only was Luke Kisiera not supposed to be in the ring, or apparently anywhere near it, but Kid Tanabe will not be the opponent for DPT tonight. Rather, his Ni-San Dan teammate KMD shall be."
*Kid Tanabe looks confused while DPT grins. The crowd immediately starts a "bull-sh*t" chant.*
[Drake:] "Yes I must apologize to KMD for being put in a match he was not prepared for. The same goes for Mr. Prime Time, though I must confess, a man of his talent and standing is ready for any member of the Ni-San Dan. In fact, any man that praises our Emperor, Orochi Geese, as DPT has done so graciously and inspiringly in FPCPP, is certainly a man in control of his own destiny here in UBL. As for Ni-San Dan, especially Dambman, I'm sure you can learn a lot from Mr. Prime Time."
*Drake smiles as Kid Tanabe looks furious. He looks about ready to take a swing at DPT when Dambman and KMD come out. A cool headed Dambman helps Kid calm down while KMD gets ready for the match.*
[Drake:] "My best wishes for a competitive and fair encounter."

KMD (X) ["Whose ya Daddy"- 16:05] (O) Daddy Prime Time
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Fans, I don't need to say what we're all thinking, but you have to hand it to KMD for doing his best to prepare on the spot for this match. It certainly seemed as if DPT was 'ready' for KMD too, leading us to believe perhaps some were more surprised then others by this last minute wrestler switch. In any case, DPT has bested a member of Ni-San Dan and continues on his trail to get a rematch against Dambman."
[John:] "And speaking of rematches, the next encounter is a rematch of sorts. At the previous Circuit Show, Silent Sword went up against the Marquis de Douleur. After some questionable antics occurred IN the match, both Marquis and Jean went to attack Sword afterwards and attempt to collect his blood. His student, Athrin Cross, came to his aid with a very dangerous blade he calls the "Kusarigama" and ran off the Bastille of Blood. Then at the Open Show, Athrin and Sword came to Owen "The Omega" Churchill's aid when the Bastille attacked him. So with a lot of "bad blood", sorry, between the two teams, we are finally going to get a match. Let us see who comes out ahead and if blood is thicker then puns."
*Back to ringside where each team is already in the ring and is staring at each other.*
Match #5: Athrin/Sword vs. Marquis/Jean DuBreil
Sword and Marquis waste no time in resuming their fight from last week and become the legal men. Apparently unappreciative of Marquis numerous past efforts to "relieve his blood pressure" with a sickle, Sword begins kicking the literal ass, thighs, and legs of Marquis. This brings in Jean, illegally, who doubleteams Sword with Marquis, getting control back for the Bastille. The two work on Sword in the corner with kicks to his limbs, trying to soften him up for submission attempts and take away his primary offense. Every time Athrin goes over to try to help, the referee (Coach McGuirk) sends him back.
After Athrin is forced to watch a spike piledriver in the corner, he loses his cool and runs into the ring, shoving Coach aside. Marquis has the wherewithall to reach into his tights and throw salt into Athrin's eyes! Marquis then taunts him by rubbing his own eyes and crying while Jean grabs Athrin by the tights and throws him out of the ring. As Athrin tries to get the salt out of his eyes and recover, Sword is still on the mat. Marquis and Jean look at him, smile at each other, start gesturing to the back. What is this!?
It's Vulcan Vesuvius! He's walking with a purpose into the ring and as Sword finally gets up, he backs into Vulcan, not realizing who it is. Vulcan grabs him by the throat and throws him into the corner like a rag doll! Vulcan then whips Marquis and Jean into Sword who each hit him with flying leg lariats! Sword wobbles out and falls right between Vulcan's legs, who hoists him into a powerbomb and holds it, demonstrating his awesome power. Meanwhile Athrin has begun to get up and looks nervous at the 3 on 1 scene in the ring. He appears frozen, staring at the scene, unsure of what to do, but this man isn't -
It's Omega Churchill! And he has a friend - a steel chair! He runs into the ring, smashes Marquis with the chair and then Vulcan. It doesn't initially faze the giant but he smashes again and again and again! Finally the giant Vesuvius falls down to one knee: Sword having already fallen backwards at the force of the chair shots. As Vulcan is on one knee, Sword musters up what's left of his energy to hit Vulcan with a shining wizard!! And just as Jean goes to get his own blade to turn the tide back, Athrin has grabbed his kusarigama!! Jean and Vulcan flee from the ring as Sword, Athrin, and Omega stand tall. Jean, Marquis and Vulcan make menacing gestures at the three until Genji Security comes to clear out the situation.
Athrin/Sword (O) [Disqualification - Vesuvius't - 12:00] (X) Marquis/DuBreil
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Wow!! And just when it looked like Athrin and Sword were in real trouble there, "The Omega" comes to their aid just as they did for him last time. I don't know what business Vulcan thinks he has with Sword and Athrin or if he's now simply aligned with the Bastille of Blood, but things have just gotten a lot more violent between these two factions. And if people, including me, had any doubt that the Bastille were dangerous, their actions with a monster such as Vulcan certainly should put those doubts to rest. As for Omega, he is beginning to show that his Revolution may be furthered by worthy allies."
[John:] "And now we come to the main event - a match that Karl Wunderlin has asked for ever since being narrowly beaten at the end of the first Trial by Fire match by Joe Sweeney. Karl had claimed that he was more dominant in that match and that Joe just stole a victory. And given Karl's superior performance in the NEXUS Title Tournament, it's quite possible that Karl has a point. It's also quite possible that Drake Yoshida agrees with him. And so despite the fact that Joe Sweeney earned the right to challenge for the NEXUS Title due to his Trial by Fire win, Drake wanted to settle this rivalry decisively before either men got the Title shot. Therefore, whoever wins this match will face Gene Starr for the NEXUS Title at the next UBL Reserves show. Let's get to the ring and find out who Gene Starr's first Title defense will be against."

Karl Wunderlin (O) ["Double Arm Wonderplex" - 19:56] (X) Joe Sweeney
*We go back to the studio.*
[John:] "Karl Wunderlin made a huge statement: He not only showed that he could beat Joe Sweeney and that perhaps he WAS robbed at the first Trial by Fire match, but he further showed that he is one of the top competitors around here. He took a lot of punishment but was the one to end this match decisively. You can certainly see the motivation in this man's eyes to challenge for Gene Starr's Nexus Title."
[John:] "And with that, we will see you at the next Open Show where said Nexus Title will be on the line, along with a whole lot of pride after some of the thing we have seen tonight. Perfect Royalty being formed, Vulcan Vesuvius seemingly joining the Bastille of Blood, and a whole lot of new wrestlers looking to be noticed. And word in the office is that there's a new Battallion show right around the corner, emanating from UBL's home arena and featuring a blockbuster main event of the Orochi Army vs. the Dod Squod. And from what I heard about that show from Jean Carter, it is not to be missed once she gets her blogspot account working again (apparently it was hacked by internet cats). The summer is heating up in UBL and thank you to Jean for giving me that closing line. Good night everyone."
