Coming LIVE from the Windy City Fieldhouse in Chicago, Illinois
The screen fades from black, showing the WFWF audience, before the lights dim down as "Dance with the Devil" by Breaking Benjamin plays across the sound system.
Keri Thames: Making his way to the ring, please welcome the Directing Authority of the WFWF and the WFWF National Champion, Trace Demon.
Trace Demon walks down to the ring, wearing a black suit, the WFWF National Championship draped over one shoulder, and a white staff in the other. Trace enters the ring and requests a microphone.
Matt Steel: And there is the new boss. Better start the sucking up now if you want to keep your job Werner.
Matthew Werner: He’s the man in charge, and it looks like he wants to set things straight.
The crowd erupts into a chorus of boos as Trace Demon just stands in the centre of the ring, with a bored expression on his face
Trace Demon: Shut up. Let’s make things perfect clear, I’m the boss around here, I’m in charge, and things are going to change now that the right man is in charge. Now first, let’s set things straight, this…
Trace Demon lays down the National Championship in the centre of the ring.
Trace Demon: Effective immediately the WFWF National Championship is vacated and retired. The WFWF is going under, well, lets call it a re-branding, and there is currently no room for the National Championship. I am not going to let the championships of the WFWF be tarnished by handing it to some jumped up jobber.
The crowd erupts into a chorus of boos, which Trace Demon just ignores, and carries on his statement.
Trace Demon: Also, just before we get the inaugural show under my control under way, I am laying down a warning right now. I am a fan of competition, of wrestlers having to prove themselves. I’m also a supporter of zero tolerance, so if you get on my bad side, then it’s game over.
We're presented with the opening video package of WFWF Loaded, showcasing the WFWF talent and their variety of spectacular moves. Following this we're brought to a roaring, live audience with a plethora of pyro exploding at the stage. We're then brought to ringside with Matthew Werner and Matt Steel.
Matthew Werner: Welcome Folks to WFWF Loaded live from the Windy City Fieldhouse in Chicago, Illinois.
Matt Steel: And after a rough couple of weeks tonight the WFWF is reborn under a new Directive Authority
Matthew Werner: We heard from him moments ago, and the action isn't going to stop there, tonight we start the road to crowning a new WFWF Heavyweight Champion.
Matt Steel: So let's get started.
Singles Competition
DTP V. Kurt Burton
A quick match that saw Burton relentlessly beat on the underdog, only for DTP to fight back, nearly embaressing Burton. Burton cost himself the match when he refused to break the Triangle Choke after DTP had grabbed the bottom rope.
Winner: DTP
Matthew Werner: Kurt Burton showed no mercy to DTP here.
Matt Steel: But he still lost the match, and there is nothing worse than being a loser.
“Cult of Personality” by Living Colour plays as Thunder walks to the ring. As usual, he is met with a chorus of boos, boos that he seems to be relishing. Once in the ring, he grabs a microphone.
Thunder: Thank you for your very warm welcome. Unfortunately, I can’t say that I’m very pleased tonight. No, I simply cannot be. With this ‘new era’ or whatever you want to call it starting, I fear for the worst.
You see, the problem here is obvious. WFWF is now suddenly being run by some guy who certainly doesn’t deserve it. I’m not going to go on and on about Trace Demon’s merits, but there is a point I need to make. This should in no way be his company. It’s mine and that’s the way it should be.
I’ve been in this company since 2003, dealing with people who couldn’t pick their noses without written instructions. And now this joker gets it? I’ve done more to build up this company than that guy can ever dream of.
Well, that didn’t happen, so there’s no point in complaining, right? I’m going to do something else instead. It’s just the right thing to do, anyway.
I’m going to take the World Title back right where it belongs. And I’ll tell you all right now that the title sure as hell doesn’t belong with Reckless, Saku, or whatever other joke they put in the tournament.
The fact of the matter is that the title rightfully belongs to me. The past alone proves that. In a little over a half a year, I won the Tag Team Title, International Title, and the World Title. Time and time again I’ve proven that there quite simply isn’t anybody in my league.
I suppose I have to prove that again. This time it’ll be even easier. There’s just quite simply nobody in that locker room that can compete with me.
You think I’m being overconfident? Arrogant? Cocky? Soon enough everyone will see once again that I’ve got good reason to be. It’s only a matter of time before that title is back where it belongs. And once I do, all will be right with the world once again.
He exits the ring as “Cult of Personality” plays again.
Matthew Werner: Strong words from Thunder.
Matt Steel: He has a point, Trace Demon has a lot to prove.
WFWF World Championship Tournament Quarter Final
Reverend Shadow V. Jester
Both men put in a strong performance, but it was the experience edge that seemed to give Shadow the advantage, and picked up the win following the Revelation
Winner: Reverand Shadow
The camera cuts to Trace Demon, sitting backstage in his office, talking on the phone.
Trace Demon: I don't care what they think, it doesn't make a difference whether they support me or not. We have this in the bag.
Of couse, it's ours for the taking, and nobody is going to see it coming. Just keep watching, tonight, the shocks are going to keep on coming.
Keri Thames: The following single’s match is scheduled for one fall.
“The Carpal Tunnel of Love” by Fall Out Boy plays on the PA as Kronic and Tabitha Owens walk out from behind the curtain.
Keri Thames: Making his way to the ring first, to be accompanied by Tabitha Owens, he weighs in at 230 lbs…Kronic!
Kronic stands there awkwardly, as Tabitha nudges him down the aisle. Kronic high-fives a few hands of the fans in a nervous manner before sliding into the ring and hiding behind the referee.
Matt Steel: You know, the one thing in this entire world that I detest more than hiding behind a referee is Fall Out Boy.
Matthew Werner: Well, Kronic is special, Steel. I‘m not quite sure he really knows what he‘s doing here.
Matt Steel: Eh, I‘ll just pay attention to Tabitha Owens.
Keri Thames: And his opponent…
All of the lights except a very dim orange one are out. The orange light is set at the top of the stage. Though vague, you can make out the outline of a man standing in the light.
Keri Thames: He weighs in at 290 lbs…The High Horror!
The PA system is blaring the overture to Hard-Rock Hallelujah. All of a sudden a series of powerful guitar chords begin to play as techno-color strobe lights flicker on and off, bright and dim. High Horror puts his arms straight up from his side. He puts his hands above his head and quickly jerks them down as a powerful medley of blue, red, and orange flames shoot up from the stage. Horror proceeds down the ramp, into the ring. Horror runs the ropes a few times then throws his fists into the air.
Matt Steel: Ah, now I see why Kronic was hiding behind the Ref. He knows High Horror is going to beat the living shi…
Matthew Werner: It looks like High Horror is getting this thing started early, look what‘s going on
in the ring!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
In the ring, High Horror has rushed Kronic into the corner and is beginning to throw stiff punches directly to his face. Kronic tries to cover up as High Horror continues to strike away, the ref yells to get him out of the corner. High Horror then wraps both hands around Kronic‘s neck and manages to toss him almost clear across the ring.
Matthew Werner: What a powerful throw by High Horror!
Matt Steel: Kronic should‘ve stayed behind the ref!
Horror approaches Kronic and waits for him to get to his feet. As soon as he does,
Horror rams his knee into Kronic‘s abdomen and then strikes a heavy forearm over his back. Horror then places Kronic in a front facelock and lifts him up for a suplex. Kronic manages to fall out of the suplex and land behind Horror. He then puts Horror in a waist lock from behind and seems to be going for a German Suplex, but Horror strikes him in the face with an elbow. Horror picks Kronic up then sends him off to the ropes with an Irish Whip. Kronic bounces off the ropes and is struck with a hellacious clothesline by Horror.
Matthew Werner: Damn! The clothesline nearly took Kronic‘s head off!
Matt Steel: I‘d be worried that it scrambled his brain, but I’m not sure Kronic actually has one of those.
Horror doesn‘t give Kronic a chance to recover as he picks him back up and then lifts him onto his shoulder. Horror carries Kronic around before running to the center of the ring and planting him with a Powerslam. He then goes for a cover.
...1…
...2...
Kronic kicks out after 2.
Matthew Werner: I‘m surprised he kicked out of that!
Matt Steel: No you‘re not! It‘s not like he hit his finisher or anything.
Horror puts Kronic in a headlock as both men are getting to their feet. Just as he starts to apply pressure, Kronic strikes two elbows to his gut then sends Horror to the ropes. As Horror comes running back, Kronic attempts a clothesline, but Horror is able to block it and knock him down with an STO. He then hits a heavy leg drop over Kronic‘s throat. Horror lifts Kronic slightly so that he‘s in a seated position then applies a Dragon Sleeper, while pressing his knee into Kronic‘s back. Kronic yells out in pain as the ref asks him if he wants to give up.
Matthew Werner: This is a smart strategy by High Horror. He was using his power in the early goings of this match to wear out Kronic, now he‘s basically trying to put him out completely with this submission.
Matt Steel: I wouldn‘t be too surprised if Kronic tapped right now, it‘s not like he‘s gotten any offense yet.
In the ring, Kronic seems to have nearly passed out due to the submission. The ref proceeds to raise Kronic arm to see if he‘s out of it. Kronic‘s arm drops lifelessly the first time. The same thing happens the second time.
Matthew Werner: Kronic looks to be out of it!
The ref raises Kronic‘s arm for a third time, but it stays in the air. Kronic quickly tries to bring himself to his feet as Horror keeps the Dragon Sleeper applied. Kronic somehow manages to get up, with the hold still intact, and he strikes Horror in the face a couple of times until Horror releases the hold. Kronic hits two quick dropkicks to Horror‘s chest, not phasing him at all. Kronic then runs to the ropes and comes back with another dropkick. Horror barely moves from the strike. Horror goes for a clothesline, but Kronic ducks then dropkicks Horror in the knee, bringing the big man to a kneeling position.
Matthew Werner: Kronic looks to be taking advantage now.
Matt Steel: Yeah, but he‘ll have to do a lot more than a couple of dropkicks to defeat Horror.
With Horror still in a kneeling position, Kronic strikes him in the face with a spinning back kick. Horror falls back, but is quick to get up. As soon as he makes it back to his feet, Kronic leaps up and wraps his legs around Horror‘s head and takes him over with a Hurracanrana. With Horror down, Kronic quickly nails a Cartwheel Elbow drop then goes for a pin.
...1…
…2...
Horror uses his strength to pretty much throw Kronic off him. Both men are at their feet and Kronic kicks Horror in the midsection before attempting to irish whip the bigger man into the turnbuckle, however, Horror reverses it and sends Kronic to the turnbuckle. Horror charges at Kronic quickly, but Kronic once again wraps his legs around Horror‘s head and tries for a Hurracanrana out of the corner. Horror reverses this and Powerbombs Kronic, then goes for the cover.
Matthew Werner: OH! He folder Kronic up like an accordion with that Powerbomb!
Matt Steel: This has got to be it!
...1…
…2...
Kronic somehow manages to kick out, much to the displeasure of High Horror. As soon as Kronic gets to his feet, High Horror blasts him in the face with a Big Boot. Horror signals that it‘s over as he begins to lift Kronic up again. Horror positions Kronic between his legs, like he‘s about to set him up for another Powerbomb.
Matt Steel: I think he‘s about to go for the Hangman‘s Horror!
Horror lifts Kronic up for the Hangman‘s Horror, but Kronic drops out, landing behind him and wraps his arms around his waist from behind for a second time and manages to find the strength to hit a German Suplex.
Matthew Werner: Whoa! I did not see that coming!
Matt Steel: Kronic better capitalize now because Horror‘s getting back to his feet.
Horror has made it to his feet, but not for long, as Kronic nails him in the face with a Spinning Wheel Kick. Kronic doesn‘t waste any time as he rushes to the turnbuckle and starts to climb up. He makes it to the top as Horror has made it to his feet once more. Horror see‘s Kronic and rushes to the ropes, shaking them and making Kronic lose his balance. Kronic falls with the turnbuckle between his legs and Horror starts to climb the turnbuckle facing him. Horror puts Kronic in a front face lock as he makes it up to the second rope.
Matt Steel: I see a Superplex coming up.
Before Horror can execute the Superplex, Kronic strikes three heavy blows to Horror‘s gut. Horror loses his balance and falls backwards to the mat. Kronic climbs back up to the top. Horror struggles to make it back up to this feet, but does so and turns to face the Kronic again. Before Horror has time to realize what‘s going on, Kronic comes off the top rope and hits a Lollipop Drop onto Horror, landing in the pin.
Matthew Werner: That‘s his finisher! The Lollipop Drop!
Matt Steel: The what..?
…1…
...2…
...3…
Matt Steel: What an upset!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Keri Thames:
The camera’s then cut backstage, where Yukio Blaze is standing, a piece of paper in his right hand. The paper has the WFWF logo on the back.
Yukio Blaze: Ladies and gents, boys and girls, look who has come back to Chi town. So it appears that the Kraig Corp is no longer in power in the WFWF and while that should be a good thing, but it really isnt. I say that because as soon as they leave, in comes the next wave of "powers to be". Thats what is really bad about it and to make things really more peachy, I was told to come here to the arena tonight because I was going to receive something and here it is. This piece of paper that I have in my hand states that I'm no longer on the WFDC roster, but rather being brought back up to the main roster.
Yukio looks down at the piece of paper, a troubled look on his face, before looking back at the camera with a less than happy grin on his face.
Yukio Blaze: It isnt signed, it was given to me by a assistant, so I have no clue who it came from, but I have my theories. That or Kraig and Weisgarber wanted to give me one more thorn in my side before they were totally gone from here. So with that said, Yukio Blaze is coming back to Loaded. I'm going to come back better than ever and to make things a little bit sweeter, what if Yukio Blaze gets another chance at the WFWF World Heavyweight Title. Now that would be a sight to see.......
The camera zooms to see Trace Demon in the background, a cup of coffee in one hand and a phone in the other, pressed up against his ear.
Trace Demon: I don’t like this, not at all. Well, If you insist, but I’m not promising anything.
Keri Thames: The following match is a WFWF World Championship qualifying match scheduled for one fall. Making his way to the ring first, Reckless!
“Devil’s Dance” by Metallica roars through the arena as Reckless bolts out from behind the curtains to the ring. He slides in and climbs the turnbuckle, flashing the “Wolf” symbol, then jumping off.
Matthew Werner: Man, Reckless has had his share of crap over the last couple months.
Matt Steel: True, but I think he will find its all worth it here in this match.
Matthew Werner: I must say though, is sucks some of the other guys in the back don’t get their chance to shine this week like Thunder…
Matt Steel: Had his shot.
Matthew Werner: …or Calvin Lee…
Matt Steel: He has a title.
Matthew Werner: …or High Horror…
Matt Steel: Who?
Matthew Werner: You really don’t like him, do you?
Matt Steel: Who? Lee or Thunder? They my XWA brothas….word.
Matthew Werner: *sigh*
“Our Land, Maamme” by Fredrik Pacius plays as Saku, Finnish flag equipped, struts down to the ring. Upon entering the ring, “Usa” chants start as Reckless turns to the crowd slightly and gets a chuckle out of it, raising his arm for the crowd.
Matt Steel: What is he showboating to? He’s not even American.
Matthew Werner: He’s from Chicago, Matt…
Matt Steel: Ohhh…and there is the bell!
Reckless and Saku lock up in the middle of the ring. Reckless tries to take over with a front headlock, but Saku kicks him in the shin and throws a right elbow right to the face of Reckless, sending him down to the mat. Saku begins to stop on the abdomen of Reckless. Reckless tries to sit up and Saku boots him in the face, and begins the attack on his face. Reckless is trying to cover up, but to no avail. Saku then picks Reckless up by his left arm and attempts a clothesline. Reckless ducks under, turns around and misses a superkick on Saku. The Finnish Phenomenon then attempts an Alabama Slam type move, but Reckless shifter his weight turning it into a sunset flip!
...1...
...2...
Kick out at two by Saku! Reckless turns Saku on his belly and grabs Saku’s legs and nails a wheelbarrow suplex. Reckless then drops a trio of hard elbow drops. Saku is then pulled off the mat and slammed hard back down with a scoop slam. Reckless moves his legs to the side and sits down on air, waiting for Saku to stand. The Fin’ pulls himself up using the ropes, then turns around and is clocked with a high roundhouse kick to the head by Reckless. The ‘Matten goes to the top rope and leaps off trying to stop on the chest of Saku, but Saku rolls out of the way and Reckless lands hard on his feet, his knees buckling below him. Saku takes advantage and locks Reckless in a downed headlock chickenwing. Seeing he is in agony, the ref asks him if he wants to quit, but Reckless says no. Saku gets tired of waiting and yanks Reckless up, still in the hold. He musters the strength to suplex him backwards. But lucky for Reckless, his legs ricochet off of the ropes and he brings Saku down with a Cutter.
Matt Steel: Woah, nice!
Reckless and Saku recover quickly from the Cutter and they start duking it out with lefts and rights. Saku lands three in a row and Irish Whips Reckless into the far turnbuckle. Saku rams into Reckless with a vicious forearm smash/splash. Reckless bounces, and is taken down with a headlock. He is quickly lifted again, and goes up and over Saku’s head with a Gargoyle Suplex. Saku gets down and puts his forearm on Reckless’s throat. The ref gets to a count of four when Reckless scratches Saku’s face. Reckless is on his knees and Saku is charging at him with a boot. Reckless shoots up quickly catching and twisting Saku’s leg, sending them both into a side flip. Reckless speedily latches onto both arms of Saku and put them in an X across his neck, thus choking himself. Reckless gets himself onto Saku’s back while holding onto Saku’s wrists and pulls up, like a camel clutch.
Reckless leans backwards more and more, bending the spine and throat of Saku when “Through the Fire and the Flames” by Dragonforce radiates throughout the arena, much to the dismay of the fans. Reckless breaks the hold and walks towards the ropes when Dave Williams walks out to the top of the ramp, arms folded. Reckless is shouting at Dave to get down to the ring, but Dave puts out his pointer finger and twists it. Reckless turns around and is met with a boot to the gut and is drilled with The Finnisher.

Dave Williams is standing on the stage laughing at Reckless’s match, and the finish of it. Dave is about to walk down the ramp, but decideds not to and turns around when “Hard Rock Hallelujah” by Lordi blasts into the arena, causing the fans to go crazy. Williams is twiddling his thumbs when he notices a giant with a pipe in front of him. He looks up at Horror who shouts “Boo” at him, sending him running to the ring. Horror is halfway down the ramp when Williams slides into the ring. He backs up away from Horror, but is stopped dead in his tracks by Reckless who grins at the site of his foe. Dave gets on his knees pleading to the giant and Reckless but to no avail. Horror hauls the pipe up and KO’s Williams with one shot. Horror then swings at Reckless who ducks and tries to make peace. After some words back and forth, Horror’s gaze softens at Reckless, drops the pipe, and offers him his hand. Reckless takes it and they stand in the middle of the ring over the downed David Williams, raising each other’s hand. Then Reckless gets a smirk on his face, gets his foot under the pipe, kicks it into his hand and blasts High Horror in the gut with the lead pipe with sickening authority. Reckless nails Horror with The ‘R’ Switch and rolls Horror out of the ring. He then take’s Williams to the top rope and takes him all the way to the floor with a reverse STO, getting up quickly. Reckless walks around the ring slowly, admiring his work then walks up the ramp to a chorus of boos and flying trash.
The shows focus turns to a large subtly lit room with rows of connected red chairs that lead toward the foot of the room. At the foot is a large stage that is concealed by a dark red curtain from behind which light footsteps can be heard moving around in a seemingly random motion. Where both ends of the curtain come together a slit gap is left that lefts a sliver of light cut into the darkness behind faintly exposing a figure behind it.
??: I walk in a circle……searching for what I desired, for what I needed, for what I love and then when I found it…..it was taken away…..I saw the sun light, but only through the thread of a needle.
The man now comes to a pause as he reaches into his jacket pocket.
??: Though a chance has been given to me, a chance that could lift the curtains and let the light flood in.
The man now removes a small bottle of round blue pills. He carefully unclick’s the bottle lid before pouring one of the pills into the palm of his hand and slides the bottle back into his pocket.
??: A chance to be……myself? To return to the life I never knew and just be the man who’s name they once chanted.
Holding the pill between his thumb and index finger the man lifts it up to eye level and stares wonderingly at it.
??: But if a man lives all his life in an eclipse….will the sun only burn?
In one fluid motion the man flicks the pill slightly upward before swinging his around to catch it before closing his fist around it.
??: So here I am, stumbling back to where I am excepted…….praised for who I am rather then it being a reason to keep my own flesh and blood from me, here where I am cherished rather then despised….
The curtains at the front of the stage begin to slowly part.
??: Here I am where I will return to that cherished life to decide which life it is I crave……
A loud snap indicates the completed opening of the curtains as the man slowly walks into the center of the stage starring at his closed hand.
??:……so here I am……here I stand…..here’s
The man raises his face into the lift and looks out over the empty theatre.
??: ……Johnny.
The show now begins to fade out as a smile forms across the face of the WFWF hall of famer Johnny “The Movie Man” Michaels.
The screen fades to black.[/center]
