 May 20, 2000 (The shot opens outside the Philadelphia Civic Center, as a silver Cutliss Supreme parks in the parking lot. The camera pans to the driver's side as the door opens. The camera is at a low level as to only see the person's feet. The person is wearing loafers and is using crutches as the screen fades.) ("(Rap) Superstar" by Cypress Hill plays as the Hardcore Highlight Reel begins. Boris Kevelnekov gorilla press slams "Violent" Vinny Vile out of the upperdeck as Vile crashes through a large wooden concession stand. Then, Vinny Vile dives off the ladder with a flaming chair hitting a flaming elbow drop onto Trevor Smith. Then the brawl between the Forgotten Souls, X-Tremists, & The HWF's Finest is shown, followed by the piledriver off the apron through a table by Jayson Starr on Justin Storm, that may have ended Storm's career. The shot then explodes inside the ECW Arena as the HWF has sold out the place, with an arena full of rowdy fans.) Tim: May 20, 2000... We're LIVE from the Philadelphia Civic Center! And THIS is SATURDAY SUICIDE!!! Jeff: Fans, we have three unparalleled matches scheduled for tonight! First, the debut of two great technicians, The Warriors of the Rising Sun, who will face The Lethal Alliance: Blackjack and Jason Sensation! Tim: After that, we'll have "The Diamond Stud" Nick Diamante in a match against "The Canadian Phat Boy" Trevor Smith. These two have had more than a bit of insults for each other over the past few days, so this is sure to be a very heated match. Jeff: Our final match of the night will be a Three Way Dance between Lance Sterling, Michael Trey, and Jayson Starr. The World title isn't on the line, but you can bet the winner, if it's not Sterling, will be in line for a World title shot down the line. ["Rock You Like a Hurricane" booms over the loudspeakers and strobe lights begin flashing various colors rapidly. The crowd erupts into a cheer as Lance Sterling, wearing the HWF World title proudly around his waist, walks out from the curtains and slowly makes his way towards the Tim: Lance Sterling is cocky as ever, I just wonder if he can back it up tonight! (Commercials) Jeff: I'm being told we've got a few clips to air... (The shot switches to the hospital room of "Violent" Vinny Vile, with Mike Javelin beside the bed. The lights cut out in the room as visibility is restored by flames from a flaming chair held by Trevor Smith! Smith says "Paybacks are a bitch!" as the words "EARLIER TODAY" appear in the upper corner and the screen fades to black, back to the arena.) Tim: Trevor Smith was in that hospital room with Vinny Vile! Jeff: Sources have said Smith went nuts in the room but was restrained by security and Mike Javelin. Vinny Vile wasn't injured any further but is extremely pissed. Tim: I am being given word that we have exclusive footage of Justin Storm in the hospital. Jeff: Really? I wonder how he's doing. That damn Starr almost killed him last week. (The scene opens up in a hospital room. The camera zooms up to the bed as no one is in it. The cameras then look all around the room. There is a commotion outside of the room, with the door closed. The cameraman opens the door as Justin Storm is standing there, wearing a black and silver cloak. He has dyed his hair black and has a replica of the HWF World Heavyweight Championship around his waist. He is walking around, with a black boombox in hand. The boombox is playing "The World Is Not Enough" by Garbage. Storm keeps raising his hands and saying "I Am the Champion". You can now hear Jeff and Tim in the background talking.) Tim: Isn't that Michael Trey's music? Jeff: What in the hell has happened to Justin? He's seems like he's Michael Trey or something. Tim: He does look like Michael Trey... (Tim is cut off by Storm grabbing a spoon from a tray in the hallway, climbing up on a table, and speaking.) Storm: Hello all you Michael Tray fans. One week ago I fought at Yes 2 Karnage in the HWF ring and defeated the ICON to win this, the HWF World Heavyweight Championship. Now I know all of you Tray fans want to see me defend this title next week on Saturday Suicide, but I hate to admit it, but that match last week against the ICON really took a lot out of me. But I will be back in action very soon to defend this title. Now ICON, I know you are listening, so any time you want a rematch, tell me and I'll grant you one. (Tim begins to speak again as Storm pauses.) Tim: Justin Storm thinks he is Michael Trey? Jeff: No Tim, he thinks he is Michael TRAY. Notice the difference. Tim: But he thinks he is Michael Tray back when Trey won the title at Y2K. What is the meaning of this? (All of a sudden, a doctor bursts in and speaks.) Doctor: Mr. Storm, get down from there, this is Dr. Moe and you are in no condition to be up there. You have amnesia and you are in no condition to be playing games. (Storm, still thinking he is Michael Tray, speaks.) Michael Tray: You see Doc, you want a piece of me? Come and get it. Me and you, one on one in a stretcher match. Right here, right now. Come and try to take this title from me doc. (Justin "Michael Tray" Storm is cut off by Tim talking in the background.) Tim: I get it, Justin Storm has amnesia and so he thinks that he is Michael Trey, back when he won the title at Yes 2 Karnage. Jeff: Damnit Tim, how many times do I have to explain it. It's not Michael Trey, it's MICHAEL TRAY!!! Tim: Whatever... Jeff: Don't make me whip your ass like a little boy. (You can now hear back in the hospital where Justin "Michael Tray" Storm and Dr. Moe are arguing.) Tray: You see little man, I am going to give you the whipping that your daddy never gave you. (Michael Tray hops down from the table and takes his title off of his waist. He raises it and runs at the doctor as the cameras fade to black back to the arena.) Tim: What in the hell? This is screwed up. Justin thinks he's Michael Trey. Jeff: Damnit!!! Shut Tim, for the last time, and last time only, it's Michael TRAY!!! You are such a moron. (Commercials) Tim: We're back folks... I apologize for our late start as the first fifteen minutes of this show started to seem like every WWF show in the archives... Jeff: At least we can make up for it. Tim: Exactly... our first match-up of the evening is right on the horizon... ('Big in Japan' by The Guano Apes blares throughout the arena as the lights dim a bit. After a moment Jin and Tatsumi walk through the curtains, and pause on the stage. The pair are met with a small reaction, some cheers, some boos. Jin and Tatsumi head to the ring and quickly slide in. Jin goes to the center of the ring, as Tatsumi climbs to the top of one of the turnbuckles. Jin puts on a martial arts display throw spinning kicks and punches as Tatsumi blows a large cloud of dark black smoke into the air. Jin goes to his corner and kneels, blessing himself as Tatsumi paces the ring. Jin stands and he and Tatsumi await their opponents.) Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, this match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, at a combined weight of 399 pounds... "White Tiger" Jin Kobayashi and "Black Tiger" Tatsumi Hashimoto... THE WARRIORS OF THE RISING SUN!!! (The fans cheer respectively for the new prospects, as the music quickly changes to "Oh Hell Yeah" by the H-BlockX. A strobe light lights the entranceway as Jason Sensation, Blackjack, Miss Stephanie, and Savana all walk down the aisle and enter the ring.) Jeff: I love these two. Tim: I too am a fan of the Lethal Alliance. Jeff: Is that was Stephanie calls them? (Tim sighs) Announcer: ...and their opponents, accompanied to the ring by Savana and Miss Stephanie... at a combined weight of 480 pounds... Jason Sensation and Blackjack... they are... THE LETHAL ALLIANCE!!! (Miss Stephanie and Savana exit the ring as the bell sounds. Sensation and Blackjack talk to each other, and agree that Blackjack will start. Jin Kobayashi and Tatsumi Hashimoto seem to have already decided beforehand, as Jin Kobayashi stays in the ring to start against Blackjack. As Hashimoto gets to the apron, Blackjack rushes across the ring and dives with a flying forearm, but Kobayashi sidesteps the oncoming Blackjack, as Blackjack splashes the turnbuckles. Kobayashi lays in a sharp kick to the kidney of Blackjack, then a kick to the other kidney. Blackjack turns and is smacked with a devastating chop across the chest.) Crowd: Whoo! (Jin then leaps into the air with a spinning sidekick straight into the jaw of Blackjack! Blackjack seemingly goes limp as he falls to the mat in a sitting position. Kobayashi walks to the opposite corner, near Jason Sensation. He then turns and points to Blackjack. He runs with force at Blackjack and connects with a baseball slide like dropkick, directly into the face of Blackjack! Although Jin has no footwear, the sound still echoes through the arena. Jin grabs Blackjack and pulls him directly into a standing head scissors. Jin lifts him straight into the air and hooks his arms between Blackjack's legs, then spikes Blackjack with a cradle piledriver.) Tim: Jin Kobayashi isn't playing around at all! Jeff: Blackjack is being man handled by this guy! (Jin extends his hand as Tatsumi Hashimoto tags in. Jason Sensation looks to be concerned, as Hashimoto runs to the far ropes of Blackjack and springs off the middle rope, and connecting with a long, stalling moonsault onto Blackjack. He holds the cover as the ref goes to count.) Ref: One! Two! Th... (At that, Jason Sensation dives across the ring, just breaking up the count. Jin Kobayashi enters the ring to go after Jason Sensation. Sensation meets him with a right hand, then another. He goes for another kick, but Kobayashi ducks. As Sensation turns to Kobayashi, he's met with a shuffle sidekick that levels Jason. Just as he hits the mat, the lights go out. "Good Girls, Bad Guys" by DMX hits the PA, and a large "X" shines on the mat of the ring. Two men, about the same size, run down the aisle and dive into the ring, as The Warriors of the Rising Sun are waiting, a bit confused.) Tim: Who's this?! (The two men dive in the ring and meet Jin & Tatsumi. The W.O.T.R.S. defend themselves, unleashed a fury of martial arts kicks. Tatsumi is then stopped by a desperate low blow by one of the men. The man drops Tatsumi with a big right hand, then helps his partner with Kobayashi. They quickly slam Jin to the mat, then go to opposite corners and climb the turnbuckles. The point at each other and dive off, with one hitting a swan dive senton bomb and the other with a leg drop! One of the men then grabs Blackjack and hits a powerbomb into an inverted reverse neckbreaker!! The two finally leave as the ring is full of downed HWF wrestlers.) Jeff: What was that?! Tim: I don't know... but one of those guys looked familiar... Jeff: Who was it? Tim: I'm not sure, but I know I've seen him before. Jeff: Nevertheless, this match has been taken back to a level playing field. Neither team has the momentum now. (Tatsumi manages to get to his feet, as does Jason Sensation. Sensation meets Tatsumi with a fury of punches, but Tatsumi absorbs the blows. He hits a Japanese arm drag and quickly scales the turnbuckle, reaching the top as Sensation gets to his feet. Tatsumi leaps off, landing on the shoulders of Sensation. He then turns it into a hurricanrana, so fast that camera doesn't do it justice.) Jeff: What speed!!! (Tatsumi holds the hurricanrana into pin, as the ref comes to count.) Ref: One! Two! Three! Tim: The Warriors of the Rising Sun have won their first match in the HWF! Jeff: These two are AWESOME! Tim: We'll be right back! My GOD that was fast! (Commercials) (The lights go out and then flickers of blue and silver go throughout the arena. A huge bolt of light strikes from the rafters down to the front entranceway. "Big Pimpin" by Jay-Z blares through the arena and the crowd erupts. The curtains open and the 'former' HWF Hardcore Champion emerges Jeff: BROTHER! Tim: 1... 2... 3! Tim: This is so humiliating... But, now we have a REAL match scheduled... (A bit of smoke fills the entryway when "Take a look Around" By Limp Bizkit comes onto the speakers. Red and white Pyros shoot of the entry way, then out comes "The Canadian Phat Boy" Trevor Smith. He is wearing black cargo pants with black shoes, a white T-shirt that has the Punisher skull on it. Trev has on his Dragon Sunglasses with red lenses and his black bucket cap as well. He is carrying his C4 chair as he rolls into the ring.) Announcer: This match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, weighing in at 264 pounds... "THE CANADIAN PHAT BOY"... TREVOR SMITH!!! ("I Got One for Ya" by Kid Rock starts up, The Diamond Stud emerges from the back. He stops at the top of the entrance way and look through the crowd. The Diamond Stud high fives the fans with ringside seats. He works the crowd and continues. He walks down the isle, as he flexes for the crowd, and walks up the steps and onto the turnbuckle. He steps down, onto the mat, and walks to the center. He flexes as fireworks go off and the music fades.) Announcer: ...and his opponent, weighing in at 260 pounds... "THE DIAMOND STUD"... NICK DIAMANTE!!! (Before the bell sounds, the two charge each other, pounding away at each other. The two don't give the other an inch as the continue to barrage each other with closed fists, the bell sounds in the background.) Tim: We knew this wouldn't be a technical showcase. (Finally, it looks as though Nick Diamante is getting the upper hand... literally. Closing that assumption, Trevor Smith rocks Diamante off his feet with a strong punch to the jaw. Diamante quickly springs back to his feet and ducks an oncoming clothesline. Diamante grabs Smith from behind and hits a belly to back suplex. Smith also gets up quickly and catches a kick from Diamante. He holds Diamante by the leg as Diamante jumps on the grounded leg. Before Nick can hit the ensiguri kick, Trevor Smith pulls him near and levels him with a clothesline.) Jeff: He about took Diamante's head off! (Trevor Smith goes to the outside, quickly scooping up a steel chair. He tosses it over the ropes and into the ring, rolling in after. Diamante is up and runs after Smith, with a running knee to the face! Smith is knocked down and falls into the ropes, holding his face. As he removes his hands, blood is rushing from his nose.) Tim: He has to have a broken nose... (Nick Diamante goes to the outside and tosses up the ring curtain as Trevor Smith lies on the apron, trying to stop the bleeding. Diamante pulls out a table and slides it into the ring, then slides back in.) Tim: Not a chance! (Diamante opens on leg of the table, then picks it up, and leans it in the corner. Diamante then goes over to Trevor Smith, who is covered in blood. Diamante pulls him to his feet, as the bloody Smith tries to stand. Diamante hoists Trevor into the air, but Smith wiggles free. Diamante ducks another right hand, and applies a front waistlock. He lifts Trevor off the ground in a bear hug, as Smith tries to lock on a front face lock. As he tries for a DDT, Diamante rushes forward towards the table, and drives The Canadian Phat Boy through the table!!! The table shatters into pieces and Smith looks to be out, as the crowd chants "HWF! HWF!") Jeff: OH MY GOD!!! (Nick Diamante gets to his feet, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes. Diamante turns and pulls Trevor Smith to his feet. Smith is now pretty much gone, but fighting out of instinct. Diamante whips the bloodied Smith across the ring, to the ropes, and back towards the Diamond Stud. Diamante nonchalantly outstretches his arm for a clothesline, but Trevor Smith looks to get a second wind and ducks the clothesline. Diamante is surprised and turns to meet an awaiting Phat Boy, who drops the Stud with a quick reverse neckbreaker! Diamante springs backwards, as Smith takes a moment to rest.) Tim: Reverse neckbreaker from Trevor Smith! Jeff: I thought he had already lost this one! (The Canadian Phat Boy slowly gets to his feet, using the ropes as an aid. As he gets to his feet, he stumbles to the corner, picking up his C4 chair. The crowd responds with cheers as Smith goes towards Diamante. He puts the C4 chair on the mat and grabs a handful of hair, pulling Diamante into the corner. As Diamante sits there, dazed, Smith takes the C4 chair and sets it on the face of Nick.) Tim: He can't do this... he can't do this! Jeff: He's going to do this! (Smith walks backwards, then stops, pointing to Diamante with a cheer from the crowd. Smith then runs and goes for a baseball slide style dropkick, but Diamante moves. Smith goes crotch first into the bottom turnbuckle, in agony. Diamante struggles to his feet, taking Smith to his feet. Diamante applies a front face lock, then hoists Smith onto the top rope. Diamante then positions the chair in the corner, then climbs to the second rope.) Tim: Could it be the Diamond Driver?! (The Diamond Stud uses all his strength to lift Trevor Smith, then sits down onto the chair with the piledriver off the second rope!!! The C4 explodes and a cloud of smoke engulfs the corner of the ring.) Jeff: OH...MY...GOD!!! Tim: Shades of the HWF legend, New York Islander, Nick Diamante hits the second rope piledriver! (The smoke clears, as Nick Diamante slowly makes the cover to an unconscious Trevor Smith, while the HWF chant envelopes the arena.) Ref: One! Two! Three! Tim: Nick Diamante is victorious! Jeff: What a match! Tim: We need some medical help in the ring... Trevor Smith is unconscious... Get out there, now! (Commercials) Tim: We're back... Trevor Smith was stretchered out the arena and is receiving medical attention as we speak... We'll keep you updated on his condition, if not tonight, on the HWF's web site, www.hard2thecore.com! Jeff: That was unbelievable... Tim: We've got one more match remaining for the evening. Before we get to the match, let's take a look at this... (A clip begins, with "Last Week" in the corner. It shows the massive brawl between the Forgotten Souls, HWF's Finest, and X-Tremists. After a few second of that, the clip ends.) Jeff: These three factions aren't at all in good terms with the others. (The camera switches back into the locker room where Chris Goings is standing still in wrestling attire. Next to him is HWF Intern Reporter Johnnie Bray to get a few words. Goings is panting in pain but still obviously has something left in him.) Johnnie Bray: Why don't you tell them how bad you are Chris? Johnnie Bray: Yeah Chris, tell them about that. Tim: Did you hear that?! Jeff: Yes... yes I did! Whoo hoo! Tim: Oh, shut up! (Camera cuts to backstage, where it shows Lance Sterling walking down a hallway towards the ring area with the HWF World Title on his shoulder. He's dressed fully in his wrestling attire, and looks ready for the match.) (Commercials) (The lights cut out. Slow strings are being heard play throughout the arena. Slowly, the music gets louder, and a guitar riff starts to fade into it.. playing the same note repeatedly until it's the only thing heard in the arena. Then the note is held for a long period of time.. then dies out, leaving the arena in pitch black darkness.) Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, this is an elimination style, three way dance!!! *cheers* Introducing first... weighing in at 257 pounds... "THE HARDCORE HERO"... JAYSON STARR!!! ("The World is not Enough" by Garbage slowly builds as the lights dim to near dark. As the music continues towards the chorus, you see Michael finally enter the arena from backstage. Silver laser lights race around the entrance area and finally center on Trey, who is very solemn and waits with his head down. The chorus begins while you hear explosions and see the laser lights begin to flicker and fly around all over. Michael raises his head and raises his arms to the crowd as he finally approaches and enters the ring.) Announcer: ...one of his opponents, the first and only HWF Triple Crown winner, weighing in at 222 pounds... MICHAEL TREY!!! (The arena's lights begin to flash different colors as the guitar of "Rock You Like a Hurricane" by The Scorpions comes over the PA system. The crowd erupts into cheers as Lance Sterling walks out from the curtains, striking a pose as a small shower of fireworks explode. Sterling starts to walk down towards and then around the ring, slapping fans hands and generally showboating the crowd. He enters the ring, jumping over the rope. Lance flexes as another shower of pyro explodes around him as the music dies down.) Announcer: ...and finally, the reigning HWF World Champion, weighing in at 270 pounds... LANCE STERLING!!! Tim: This is going to be good! (The three are on the defensive as the bell sounds. Jayson Starr then nails Lance Sterling with a right hand as the match begins. Michael Trey works along with Starr as they back Sterling into the ropes. Trey and Starr whip Sterling across the ring and go for a double clothesline. Lance ducks and stops, turning around. Trey and Starr turn around and Sterling applies a double front face lock and hits a double DDT!) Jeff: Too many damn "double" moves... Tim: Sterling is on a roll. (Sterling goes after Jayson Starr and backs him into the corner with a fury of punches. Michael Trey comes to the corner and spins Sterling around, with a kick to the gut, he then hooks his arms and drops down with the double arm DDT "Flash of Pain"!!!) Jeff: Flash of Pain! Flash of Pain! Ref: One! Two! (Jayson Starr pulls Michael Trey off of Sterling.) Tim: What is doing? This is elimination! (The camera audio picks up the in-ring dialog.) Michael Trey: What the hell are you doing? Jayson Starr: I am the one who's going to pin the World champion! (With that, Starr dives on top of Sterling.) Ref: One! Two! (Michael Trey pulls Jayson Starr off of Sterling.) Jeff: This is nuts! (Jayson Starr gets up, and shoves Michael Trey. Trey smirks as he returns the favor. Starr then lunges forward and tackles Michael Trey. The two trade punches, rolling over and over, each person getting in adequate blows.) Tim: We knew their common respect couldn't last long! (Starr and Trey continue to brawl on the mat as Lance Sterling gets to his feet with the help of the ropes. He looks to his brawling opponents and laughs. He leans in the corner, taking in the action.) Tim: Trey and Starr don't realize they're giving him the advantage! (Sterling finally goes over to the two, and pulls Jayson Starr to his feet. He shoves Starr into a standing head scissors, then lifts Starr up and powerbombs him square on the mat!) Jeff: What a powerbomb! (As Sterling stands over Starr, and oncoming Michael Trey nails him with a forearm to the back of the head.) Tim: Michael Trey is up! (Trey nails a few right hands to the face of Sterling. Sterling blocks the last and hits a kick to Trey's stomach. Sterling applies a front face lock, then lifts Trey into the air. He drops him to the mat with a falcon arrow.) Jeff: Director's Cut!! (Sterling holds the move for the cover.) Ref: One! Two! Three! Tim: Trey is eliminated!! (Lance Sterling gets to his feet, celebrating. He looks out into the crowd, flexing for them.) Jeff: Does Sterling know it's an elimination match?! Tim: I don't think he does! (True to word, Sterling is completely oblivious to the elimination rule. As goes to leave the ring, Jayson Starr grabs him from behind and rolls him up with a schoolboy.) Ref: One! Two! Three! (The fans erupt as Jayson Starr gets to his feet and the bell sounds. Sterling is up and is furious!) Tim: Jayson Starr has won a quick match! Jeff: This is unfair! Sterling didn't know the rules! (Instead of Starr's music, "Big Pimpin`" by Jay-Z hits the PA. Jayson Starr looks to the entranceway, visibly angered. Michael Trey gets to his feet as all three men await Chris Goings.) Tim: Goings is here! Jeff: Yippee! (Chris Goings emerges from the back, with a new pair of crutches. He has a smirk on his face, as he navigates his way down the aisle. He slowly enters the ring, as Jayson Starr rushes him. Goings swings one crutch, smashing it over the head of Starr! Starr hits the mat as Michael Trey comes at Goings. Goings uses the remaining crutch, driving it into his stomach. Goings then smashes it over Trey's back. Goings has the remnants of a crutch and points it to Sterling, then exits the ring. Goings slowly backs up the aisle, staring into the eyes of Sterling. The credits roll as the show ends.)
