ICWW: Aftershock (02/07/03)

ICWW: AFTERSHOCK                      FEBRUARY 07, 2003

ICWW: Aftershock went on the air as Stat-Man welcomed fans to the ICWW arena, accompanied in the commentary booth not by Buddy Luv, but instead Michael Lucifer, the owner and heavyweight champion of ICWW. Big news there as Rhyno was set to face Mike Trell in the nights headlining match.

 

Hardcore champion Chaos Drone made his way confidently to the ring, preparing to represent the Old Blood against ICWW faithful Loopster. Neither the hardcore, or Eurasian championships were on the line as the two squared up in the ring. Loopster went on the initial charge with a nice flying clothesline, but was soon met with a stunning piledriver! The two superstars were closely match, but it was the something factor that finished it off, allowing Loopster to score the cover.

 

Backstage Violent J was buzzing around the backstage area, when he stopped next to Rhyno. The Y2Juggalo offered Rhyno a lottery ticket, but he declined and said he wouldn't want to invest in some new blood crap. Violent J looked at him puzzled and asked what he was talking about. Rhyno reminded him of Worlds Collide, and the feud between the Old Blood and the rest of ICWW. Violent J laughed and called Rhyno a psycho, before speeding off with his tickets.

 

In the ring the big Alaskan Bear-Whale prepared to face off against the people's choice in one on one competition. Albert was the crowd favourite, and took great delight in dancing the Beefer bust in the middle of the ring. The Rock imitated Albert mockingly, and was slapped with a barrage off boos from the crowd. Albert went to work, dropping the Rock with a hard clothesline, and then followed it up with a big elbow drop. The Rock sent Albo into the ropes, and managed to slam him down with a hard spinebuster. The Rock looked for the people's elbow, but missed and fell victim to the Albo bomb and a hard cover. The Rock tried to end Albert's celebration early with a Rock Bottom, but he was unable to lift the Bear-Whale, instead getting dropped with a cocobutt.

 

At the employees entrance way the Nomad was trying to enter the arena, when security intervened. Nomad pulled out his staff and brutally attacked the security guards, making his way into the ICWW arean unseen. Violent J rolled up in his cart and asked the fallen security guards if they wanted to buy any lottery tickets, they remained unconscious, so J continued on his way a little put-out. The JCW champ pulled up next to Jericho, who asked him when the circus arrived in town. Violent J told Jericho he didn't even know the circus was in town, and offered him a lottery ticket. Jericho accused the JCW superstar of being a pathetic Jerichoholic who was just using a ticket as an excuse to scab an autograph. He said he wasn't stupid and could see the Y2J on his cart. J told him it stood for Y2Juggalo, and Jericho exploded attacking the Juggalo. As he walked away he said he would show him who the real juggalo was in the ring later in the night.

 

In the ring Jesseman was making his way to the ring to take on a now unmasked Oozaru. Oozaru was seen with Banging, apparently forming a team, which led the tag team champion to make the challenge and head off the problem at the pass. The unmasked Oozaru raced his way to the ring and went straight to work knocking Jesseman flat with a hard forearm. Jesseman went for a spinning heel kick, but Oozaru caught it and slammed him down with a back breaker. Jesseman was shaken out of his boots, finding safety on the outside, while Oozaru stared down at the Tag Team champion and flexed. Jesseman seemed extremely taken back, and backed his way up the ramp to the backstage area, being counted out and giving Oozaru the win.

 

Chris Jericho made a big entrance ready for his grudge match against Violent J. Jericho was disgusted when Violent J's music started up, clearly upset with the countdown element. Violent J ran down to the ring and jumped in looking for a Mongolian splash. Jericho regained his composure, and took Violent J down with a hard diving forearm. Jericho stood the Y2Juggalo up and yelled trash in his face, only to be caught with a belly to back suplex! Jericho recovered and dropped Violent J down with a hard bulldog, and then went off the ropes with a huge Lionsault! Violent J was reeling, but was able to make it to his feet after rolling to the outside. Jericho posed in the ring, receiving boos from the crowd, which only made him more smug. Violent J jumped back in the ring and looked to go on the offensive but Jericho hit him with a low blow, unseen by the referee! Jericho rolled him up and scored the pin fall. Violent J was furious, as Jericho headed to the locker rooms, smiling back at the JCW champ and posing.

 

Stat-Man and Michael Lucifer discussed the excitement surrounding ICWW: Breaking Point, the next main event on the calendar, which although had no matches scheduled was sure to be something big. Suddenly the Nomad's music started up and he made his way to the ring, and snatched a mic. He said that Lucifer had fired him, which meant he should be in the bleachers, but that wasn't the Nomad's way. He said he had nothing to lose, and everything to gain - and challenged Lucifer to a loser leaves ICWW match right then and there. Lucifer was furious in the commentary booth, but found solace as Rhyno raced down to the ring and caught Nomad with a frightening gore!

 

Suddenly Trell's music kicked up, as the big superstar made his way to the ring. Rhyno threw Nomad over the top rope, and stood ready punching himself on the chest. Trell climbed over the top rope and went straight on the defensive, fending off a barrage of rights and lefts. Trell tied up with Rhyno, and dropped him hard with a vertical suplex. The manimal jumped right back up, and pounded his chest, sending a message to the big man. The National champion grabbed Trell by the arms and rammed his shoulders in hard, driving him toward the turnbuckle. Rhyno lined up for a big charging shoulder thrust, but instead ran right into Trell's big boot! Trell was down on one knee regaining himself, with Rhyno apparently out cold. The recent ICWW addition pointed out to the crowd signaling something big, which came in the form of a big leg drop! Trell went for the cover, but only got a two count. He picked the Rhyno up, and looked ready to take him down with another big boot, but this time Rhyno connected with the gore! He picked his opponent up and dropped him with a powerbomb, with the bridge securing the pin fall. Trell rolled to the outside while Rhyno mounted a turnbuckle and raised his arms in triumph. Trell entered the ring once again and attacked from behind with a steel chair! Mike Trell pounded down on the leader of the Old Blood, and was then joined by Nomad! Both Trell and Nomad stomped down on Rhyno, before stopping and staring at each other as ICWW: Aftershock went off air.
