NOW PLAYING: Armchair Warfare, Television Week One!

[Anybody Thrilla]

Good evening everyone, and welcome to Armchair Warfare! For those of you unfamiliar with the concept, five bookers will be competeing against one another over the next few weeks in a effort to create the most entertaining wrestling shows possible. We have an esteemed panel of judges to decide who truly is the best of the best, but we'll still need YOUR help, TPWW.

Bonus points will be awarded to the bookers based on their shows rankings from the public poll with this very thread. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to read ALL five of the television shows presented in this thread and vote for the one that you think would be the most entertaining were it to actually happen. PLEASE DO NOT VOTE UNTIL ALL FIVE SHOWS HAVE BEEN POSTED HERE. Also, feel free to discuss in this thread what you liked and didn't like about any of the action as to provide some feedback for our bookers to help them provide better entertainment for YOU. Got it? Good. Let's get rolling...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT WARFARE
EPISODE 1

*The house lights come up and there is a lone figure in the ring...that man is Michael Cole*

Cole: Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the next evolution in professional wrestling...VINTAGE Championship Wrestling. I, Michael Cole, am the owner and creator of VCW and I intend to put this company at the very top of the industry.

As owner I will have complete control of the roster and the matches that you will see here in VCW. I - unlike many that have come before me - will be fair and nothing will go unseen.

"How is that Michael?" you might ask. Well just like my former employer did back in the day, I will be sat at ringside at the announcer's table. I am Michael Cole and I will be omnipresent here in VCW.

But I can't call all of the action by myself. Oh no. I need someone there next to me. Perhaps Oklahoma's favourite son?

*The crowd cheer*

Cole: No. He won't do. Perhaps "Wrestling Royalty"?

*The crowd cheer a little bit less than for the JR tease*

Cole: No, not him either. There is only one man that can fill that seat next to me. And he is the legend in this industry. He has been on top of every wrestling company worth a damn and he is a multi-time World Champion. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you VCW's Colour Commentator....

SPOILER: show

*The crowd pop as Hogan makes his way to the ring. He does the ear cup and the Hulk poses before shaking Cole's hand and leaving the ring to go to his position at the table*

Cole: VINTAGE Hogan!

*The smarks pop*

Cole: Now. With that out of the way it's time to get down to the real business of the evening. Firstly we will see the crowning of VCW's first ever Tag Team Champions as a legendary team take on a pair of young up and comers. And that match will take place...TONIGHT!

In 4 weeks time we will hold VCW's very first PPV and at that PPV we will crown a World Heavyweight Champion! So at this time I would like to offer every wrestler in the back the opportunity to put across their case to be in the World Title match. Over the coming weeks I will be assessing the cases put forth by all individuals. With that said, ladies and gentlemen, this is VCW, let the games begin!

SPOILER: show

*The crowd pop as HHH makes his way out onto the stage and then into the ring*

HHH: Hey Cole. Did you just mention "The Game"? I think you did! And as if by magic here I am, right here in VCW. I'm also pretty sure that I heard you mention something about crowning a World Champion. Well Cole, look no further because standing infront of you is a 13 time World Champion and the man that will be crowned the first ever VCW World Heavyweight Champion.

*The crowd chant HHH's name, Randy Orton comes out of nowhere with an RKO! Orton looks down on the fallen HHH and then looks up and towards Cole*

Orton: Actions speak louder than words.

*Orton leaves the ring and makes his way up the ramp when he is cut off by...

SPOILER: show

Anderson: Hellooooooooooooooooo VCW...............V...C...W! And if it isn't Randal Keith Orton. Y'know last tiime I saw you, well.....err you kinda cost me my job. But I'm a nice guy, I can take it on the chin, I can see it was just......business. I'm a nice guy so I can let bygones be bygones.

Oh. Wait. Wait. That's right. I'm not a nice guy. I am an asshole. The kind of asshole that doesn't take kindly to having his livelihood taken away from him. The kind of asshole that does hold a grudge. The kind of asshole that is gonna punch you in the mouth the first time I get the chance. But also the kind of asshole that want's to be the first ever VCW Wooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrld Heavyweight Chaaaaaaaaaaaampion!

*Anderson heads down the ramp towards Orton. Randy backs up into the ring and is met by a Pedigree by HHH. Anderson and HHH stare each other down*

(Match 1) VCW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

*The Usos make their way to the ring*

Jimmy: For those of you who don't know who we are, allow me to introduce us...we will be your Tag Team Champions.

SPOILER: show

*The pyro explodes as The Deadly Dudleys head to the ring to a massive ovation*

Bubba: I'll tell you what, I don't know who you guys are but if we know one thing we know Tag Team Champions when we see them. We are 23 time Tag Champs and I say tonight we make it 24!

*The Usos go straight on the attack hitting D-Von in the head with their mic. The two teams brawl until Jimmy and D-Von fall out of the ring. The ref calls for the bell as the match officially gets under way with Jey and Bubba in the ring. Jey stays in control of Bubba with punches before sending Bubba into the corner where Jimmy is standing. Jey gets in D-Von's face whilst the ref tries to intervene allowing Jimmy the opportunity to choke Bubba with the tag rope. Jey sprints across the ring nailing Bubba with a Clothesline in the corner and tags out to Jimmy.

Jimmy catapults himself over the top rope landing an Elbow Drop on a prone Bubba. He makes the cover for 2. Jimmy mounts Bubba and nails a succession of right hands before picking Bubba off the mat and securing a Headlock. Bubba fights out sending Jimmy into the ropes, Bubba fires a Clothesline at Jimmy but he ducks and hits the ropes on the other side. On his rebound he launches himself in a Crossbody Block but Bubba catches him, adjusts him on to his shoulders and lands a Samoan Drop before getting in Jey's face who is upset about Bubba using the Samoan move. Bubba picks Jimmy up and twists his arm before tagging D-Von in.

D-Von takes over the arm lock and sends Jimmy into the ropes, D-Von nails a Reverse Elbow sending Jimmy to the mat. D-Von covers and gets a 2 count. D-Von picks Jimmy up and hits a Suplex. He picks Jimmy up and sets up another Suplex, this time stalling with Jimmy in the air. Jimmy manages to wriggle free, landing on his feet he tags out to Jey. D-Von turns around to be met with a Dropkick as Jey springs over the ropes.

Jey punches Bubba who is waiting on the apron, Bubba tries to get into the ring but is stopped by the ref. This allows The Usos the chance to double team D-Von. Jey sends D-Von into the corner and lays on his back, as D-Von staggers out Jimmy attacks with a Drop Toe Hold making D-Von fall face first into Jey's knees. Jimmy leaves the ring and Jey goes for the cover again, which brings another 2 count.[/QUOTE]
