ICWW: Civil Action (02/04/03)

ICWW: CIVIL ACTION                      FEBRUARY 04, 2003

Buddy Luv was fired up as ICWW: Civil Action came on the air, with Stat-Man alongside him he was happy to finally have the cowardly mystery attacker reveal himself. Stat-Man disputed that fact, saying the mystery attacker was a brilliant strategist, and played the odds well.

 

On the big screen Marz appeared to be in a dark room, sporting heavy bandages around his mid-section and a swollen lip. He said that Oozaru got what he deserved at Worlds Collide, and he would get more of it when he came back. Marz said he didn't care if Oozaru was un-masked or not, he would rip more than a costume off, he would rip into Oozaru like a madman. Marz warned Oozaru to watch his back, because the bell tolled. The camera then faded to black.

 

The Nomad entered the arena to a huge pop, and took a microphone. He said he realised he was a contributing factor to the Old Blood coming out on top at Worlds Collide, but he didn't care about that. He said what he cared about was the fact that their dirty leader was holding a belt that was once his, and hadn't been worth anything since he had held it. Rhyno stepped out at the arena looking extremely unpleased as the Nomad began taunting him. Nomad said that if Rhyno was such a big shot he should face him right then and there. Rhyno raced to the ring, encouraging Nomad to slip out the other side, while he taunted the crowd with his National championship belt.

 

Nomad slid back in and went to work on the Rhyno with a a hard uppercut, and went off the ropes following it up with a diving forearm. Rhyno jumped back to his feet and shoved Nomad into the corner buckle, attacking with a barrage of punches, and shoulder thrusts. Nomad dropped and Rhyno turned to the crowd, punching his chest, and not seeing the Nomad roll over and jump up behind the champ. He turned around right into a wild crescent kick, and then went up stairs for a leg drop! Rhyno jumped up and hit a stunner in a desperation move, successfully stunning the Nomad. Rhyno locked up and dropped Nomad with a devastating double powerbomb! Nomad staggered to his feet and missed the red myst, leaving him wide open for the gore! Rhyno scored the cover but continued to lay the beat down on Nomad. Nomad rolled out of the ring and retrieved his scythe, using it to brutally attack the Rhyno. Rhyno jumped out of the ring and made his way to the back, staring at the Nomad, still swinging in the middle of the ring.

 

Backstage an out-of-costume Oozaru was approached by Banging. The two shook hands and Banging said that the only thing the old blood was about, was getting Rhyno the title. Oozaru said that the two of them had known each other a long time, and had some great matches and it was time the rivals became a team. The two shook hands and headed to the locker rooms.

 

The Super Friends made their way to the ring next, with Mickdust taking a microphone. He said that at Worlds Collide it was fantastic that his friends had retained their tag team titles, because they showed exactly what the never give up attitude of the Super Friends was all about. He turned to Jesseman looking guilty and said he had a confession to make, that he didn't really give it his all in the last man standing match with Loopster. Jesseman said it was okay, because sometimes you need to save a little something for the fight ahead. Mickdust said that there was more, and unzipped his golden jumpsuit to reveal darker clothes, and the heavyweight championship belt! Jesseman looked stunned and Mickdust attacked him, knocking him down with a big boot! Mickdust grabbed Albert Beefcake and chokeslammed him, before throwing him out of the ring. Mickdust grabbed Jesseman and told him he was a fool to think he could control, let alone defeat Michael Lucifer. Lucifer then looked to the crowd and said he realised they must all be wondering how he could be the mystery attacker if he was a victim twice. He laughed and said it's not hard to lie down and play dead when you have to. Lucifer then called out his old friend the Nomad. Nomad made his way to the ring smiling smugly and kneeled before the owner of ICWW while he reminisced about their time together. Lucifer then declared that made it all the harder to fire him. The Nomad was shocked, as Lucifer yelled at him once more that he was fired, and gave him a chokeslam also! Jason Shamrock's music kicked up and the true heavyweight champion raced to the ring. Lucifer said if he laid a finger on him he would be fired also. He then said that he was a fair guy, and would face Shamrock right then and there for the title.

 

Shamrock went on the attack looking for a belly to belly suplex, but Lucifer countered, powering out and delivering a devastating chokeslam. He rolled to the outside and retrieved a steel chair and proceeded to pound the already compromised heavyweight champion. Lucifer cockily made the cover with his foot, and threw Shamrock out of the ring. Oozaru's music interrupted the celebrating as the hardcore superstar raced to the ring, but ran right into a big boot, and then the devil driver!

 

Lucifer laughed evilly, showing off the heavyweight championship when suddenly an unfamiliar theme kicked in. Lucifer looked up at the entrance way curiously, only to be surprised from behind by Mike Trell! Trell spun Lucifer around and delivered an Earth shattering big boot to the face! He then followed up with a big leg drop, and ripped the heavyweight belt from Lucifer's waist. Trell mounted the turnbuckle and held the title high above his head as CA came to an impactful close.
