HISTORY
Duff and Warren Engel haven't had a turbulent past, but they represent different organizations in different ways. Warren Engel was born into the Engel family, which spells anti-MoA. Duff, not always in the MoA, jumped aboard when he found his way into Pioneer Wrestling. In the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, there's no limit on the brutality that could take place between these two.

DING DING!

Eric Emerson:
 “Ladies and Gentlemen… this match is schedualed for one fall and is a TABLES, LADDERS AND CHAIRS MATCH! Which means there are No Count outs, No Disqualifications, anything and everything goes! ”

The crowd explodes as Eric Emerson leaves the ring, all around the outside of the ring are Tables laying against the walls and chairs sitting all around the arena. The shot came back to Jon McDaniel and Brian Rentfro.

McDaniel: “Welcome back to the first night of RPM, this is a most anticipated match, a TLC match between Oddysey and Duff Cote D’Ivoire!”

Rentfro: “Oh yes! There will be blood brutha!”

The lights dim as "Rumors Of My Demise Have Been Greatly Exaggerated" by Rise Against kicks up on the PA system. The guitar rocks throughout the arena and about twenty seconds in we finally have a voice to match the guitars and drums.

Warren Engel appears from backstage, and the crowd erupts for the young rookie. They're glad to see him back in action at one of the biggest pay-per-views in the PWA's history.

When I die will they remember not
What I did, but what I haven't done?
It's not the end I fear with each breath
It's life that scares me to death


Eric Emerson:
 Introducing now, hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania...

Warren starts to make his way down the ring as red and silver pyros shoot off behind him. He's dressed in faded blue jeans, a black dress shirt, and a pair of Oakley's. His hair used to be spiked up in the front, but he's grown it out and wears it regular. His bangs cover the tops of his eyes as he reaches the ring.

Eric Emerson:
 ...he weighs two hundred and three pounds and stands just an inch under six feet...

Your words won't save me now
I'm at the edge feeling the sweat drip from my brow
"Get a grip on yourself" is what they say

Every hour, every day
Hands over my ears
I've been screaming all these years

He slides into the ring and hops to his feet. He yells out to the crowd to get'em pumped. Some react, some don't. He takes off his sunglasses and shirt to reveal a long-sleeve black athletic shirt.

Eric Emerson: ..he is WARREN "ODDYSEY" ENGEL!!

And now a hand's extending outward
Quiet comfort they invite
Do we dare take what they offer?
Do we step into the light?

Some of the crowd pops again as Warren relaxes in his turnbuckle, waiting.

Eric Emerson: “And his opponent!”

An old nylon-string guitar begins playing lonely notes over the loudspeakers and the sound echoes as if it's residing deep inside of a sewer. When the first drum beat hits, building the anticipation, a series of black lights illuminate the stage and vapor dances in its glow. After about forty five seconds, the classical guitar is interrupted by Randal Blythe's growling vocals.

--Our father, thy will be done!--

The classical guitar is replaced with distorted electric guitars tuned to drop D, playing the slow and droning "Vigil" by Lamb of God. The lights surrounding the curtain flicker in a constant strobe and Duff Côte d'Ivoire emerges from the back wearing long, black leather jacket. Beneath this, he wears a black tee shirt, blue jeans, and combat boots.

--I have denied--
--This life its worth--
--I will not be the victim--

He glances around to the crowd and the smirk turns into an arrogant, toothy grin.

--Show me how it hurts to rot from the inside out--
--This vigil burns--
--Until the date our fires overtake you--

Eric Emerson: On the way to the ring: from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he stands at 6'7" and weighs in at 275 lbs., he is a member of the Masters of Armageddon, Duff Côte d'Ivoiiire!

He walks to the ring in long strides. He surveys his surroundings again before rolling into the ring. A lone spotlight shines on him as he plays the crowd from the middle rope in the far corner for a few moments. They throw nothing a barrage of jeers at him as he laughs at their discontent.

--OUR FATHER, WE FORSAKE YOU--

Duff jumps down from his perch and waits impatiently for the match to start.

Rentfro: “Look at them, they look so anxious to get started… This is going to be a blood bath my friend!”

McDaniel: “Right you are! Even I have jitters just waiting for the match to start…”

The ref checks if both men are ready the signals for the bell, the crowd cheers as both men immediately lock up in the centre of the ring, Oddysey gets behind Duff, but Duff immediately swings his elbow back and knocks Oddysey off, Oddysey comes back with a hard right before Duff can turn around to face the younger Engel Brother.

McDaniel: “Already Duff showing some fist fighting techniques in this match!”

Rentfro: “But Oddysey came straight back with a hard right! Showing that he can be physical too!”

Duff rubs his index finger around the inside of his cheek, grins as he looks at the bit of blood he pulled out. Duff then grabs Oddysey by arm and pulls him into a quick Snapmare Suplex! As soon as he executes the move, he rolls out of the ring and grabs a chair, but As he is about to roll back into the ring, Oddysey smacks the chair right back into Duff with a hard baseball slide! Duff falls back and lands on his behind, a bit dazed.

McDaniel: “Ooh! Oddysey taking Duff out with a quick slide! Just goes to show that Oddysey may be a bit more Versatile when it comes to technical stuff, but can he keep up with all those weapons duff can use?”

Rentfro: “I dunno, Duff looks like he could be dangerous with that chair in his hands!”

Oddysey slid out of the ring and walks over to Duff, he grabs him by the hair but Duff, (Whom was playing possum), Kicks Warren right in the baby makers! Oddysey’s eyes go wide as he cups himself, he keels over and rocks, Duff chuckles and lifts the chair up high, and brings it down right on Oddysey’s rib cage!!

McDaniel: “Oooh! I guess you were right Brian! Duff just took down Oddysey rather quickly there!!”

Duff picks Oddysey up and lifts him into a Military press, he takes a few steps over to the barricade and drops Oddysey down right onto the top of the Barricade, almost exactly where the chair had landed.

Rentfro: “Snap! It seems Duff is taking care of Oddysey quickly now!”

McDaniel: “Well, you’d think they’d play nice, but with weapons, no count outs and no DQ’s anything can happen now!!”

Duff picks Oddysey up by the back of his head, and he slams him back down into the barricade! He lifts him up again, but as soon as he is about to slam him down Oddysey stops himself from the top of the barricade, he elbows Duff in the head and backs up a bit, Duff shakes it off and turns to go after Oddysey, but as soon as he turns, Oddysey super kicks him right in the chin!!

McDaniel: “Super Kick! Super Kick!”

Rentfro: “Holy Crap! Did you see how quick he was!!”

Duff stumbles back and rests against the barricade still on his feet, Oddysey backs up again and runs back at Duff! Oddysey leaps into the air and drop kicks Duff right over the barricade! His own body falling with Duff into the crowd of PWA Dublin Fans!!

McDaniel: “Oddysey showing no signs of giving up tonight! I figured after Duff took him out that’d be the end of him!!”

Rentfro: “He’s tougher than he looks I’ll say!”

Oddysey brings himself to his feet, fans pat him on the back as he staggers over to the barricade, and pulls himself over the top, he grabs one of the tables that were folded up near by and sets it up, he climbs on top of it and over the barricade once again, he sprints over to Duff and picks him up, Duff fights a bit, he elbows Oddysey in the gut and then grabs pulls him into a hard DDT!!

McDaniel: “Duff is up once again! He drops Oddysey with a hard DDT and is now carrying him over to where the table is!!”

Duff picks him up to the top of the barricade and lifts him high into the air!! But Oddysey wiggles out of it! he manages to use his weight to get out of the Suplex, and bring himself down to the barricade! Duff tries again but this time Oddysey doesn’t go anywhere, instead Oddysey picks him up on his own and doesn’t even finish the Suplex! Instead he picks him up into a suplex like hold and then just drops him right onto the table!! The table shatters right in two as Oddysey looks down at Duff, then he looks out to the crowd, a sly grin cracks his face as he turns around and leaps off into a short moonsault!!

Rentfro: “Oh My god!!!”

The crowd chants “ODD-Y-SEY!! ODD-Y-SEY!!!” As both men lay in a heap of wood splinters and flesh.

McDaniel: Both men may be out of this match! I think the ref is going to check to make sure both men are still conscious!!”

Rentfro: “I’ll bet you my whole paycheque neither of them will get up! This match is done!”

The ref begins to count….

1!

Nothing…

2!

Still Nothing… The chants now become for both sides, “LETS GO D’IVORIE *Clap clap clap*” – “LETS GO ODDYSEY! *Clap Clap Clap*”

3!

Both men begin to stir, the crowd cheers for them to get up!
4!

Oddysey begins to pull himself slowly out of the broken table, Duff barely moves.

5!

Oddysey crawls over to the ring and pulls himself up slowly.

6!

Duff raises his hand to the barricade and tries to pull himself up.

7!

Oddysey gets to his feet and stops the count, he staggers for a moment, then turns over to look at Duff. He slowly gets to his feet as well, the crowd explodes in cheers as they look as if they are ready to continue the match once again.

McDaniel: “Both men are up and ready now! But how much have they got left in them?”

Rentfro: “I would hope enough to finish this match both in one piece!”

Duff staggers over to Oddysey who was already on his way over to a chair on the ground, he picks it up and turns to Duff, whom was already just about a foot behind him Oddysey takes a great swing, but Duff ducks under it and with his last bit of energy, he grabs Oddysey by the legs and lifts him up in a mighty Spinebuster! Right on the floor! Oddysey goes down and Duff goes for the pin, but being they are not in the ring, it doesn’t count, and Duff sighs, frustrated just a bit, he gets back to his feet and picks Oddysey up to toss him back into the ring.

McDaniel: “I guess Duff forgot it was a TLC match, not a falls count anywhere match!”

Rentfro: “Duff will survive… I hope…”

Duff rolls under the bottom rope and Picks odyssey up once again, and lifts him onto his shoulders into a fireman’s carry, he keeps him held there for a moment, then tosses him off his shoulders onto the canvas ground, he goes for the pin again!

1!

2!

Kick out!

Oddysey kicks out quickly and the ref calls for the two. Duff rubs his eyes a bit, and gets to his feet, and walks over to the ring ropes and waits there, he looks out to the crowd then back at Oddysey who is finally about to get to his feet.

McDaniel: “Both these men look as if they’ve both had enough!”

Rentfro: “Call me crazy, but I think Duff wants to end this one right here, he’s in the perfect position to right now!

Duff runs at Oddysey and goes for a quick clothes line, but Oddysey ducks and as a return face, he uppercut Duff right in the Gonads!! He patted Duff on the stomach and Duff keeled over!

McDaniel: “And A return favor from earlier in this match up! Oddysey just plows D’Ivoire right in the nuts!!”

Oddysey picks him self up and walks over to the nearest turn buckle, he crawls up slowly and then to the top of the turnbuckle.. he stands there for half a second… then in a blink of an eye he jumps off the top turnbuckle and lands neatly on top of Duff with a hard 450 Splash!! Oddysey Hooks both of Duff’s legs on impact and pulls up hard! The Ref counts the pin!

1!

2!

Kicks out!!

Duff kicks out roughly, he pushes Oddysey off him and rolls out of the ring, Oddysey rolls out the other way and grabs one of the ladders laying against the barricade, he slides it in and props it up as a launching board against the ropes! He runs at the set of ropes opposite and runs back, and just as he is half way up the ladder, Duff pushes the make shift launching board off the ropes and watches as Oddysey tumbles off and gets tangled up in the ropes!

McDaniel: “And what could’ve been a highlight move, it was botched up by Duff at the last second!!”

Rentfro: “I gotta give it to Duff, had he not been looking where he was supposed to be half a second later, he would’ve been out of this match for good!”

Duff rolls under the bottom rope and pulls Oddysey out from the tangle he got himself in, Duff grabs his arm and tosses him into the turnbuckle very hard! Oddysey hits the Turnbuckle and almost recochets off! But he grabs hold of the top rope and pulls himself over to the outside of the canvas!

McDaniel: “It looked like Duff was trying to end the match with his “Master of Puppets” finisher, but Oddysey just foiled his plans.”

Rentfro: “There seems to be a lot of returning of “Favors” in this match, you know?”

Duff sprints to catch Oddysey before he can get over the top rope, but Oddysey grabs his head and pulls him down into a Top Rope Guillotine!

McDaniel: “Ouch! Duff was too slow to react on that one!”

Duff falls down to the mat and Oddy lays down a few boots to him. Oddy gets Duff to his feet and throws him into the ropes. Oddy tries for a dropkick, but Duff sidesteps and lets Oddy fall on one of the ladders in the ring. Duff gets Oddy to his feet and unchambers lefts and rights. Duff tosses him into the corner and goes in for a corner splash. He connects!

McDaniel: “Ouch! And Warren just got squashed like a bug in that corner!"

Rentfro: “He's still got life in him though!"

Duff grabs Oddy by the hair and nails him with a huge haymaker. Oddy staggers back into the corner. Duff tries a running elbow smash, but Oddy ducks it this time and Duff crashes into the turnbuckle. Oddy quickly grabs a ladder and shoves it into Duff's back. He does it again, and again. Duff falls to one knee and then Oddy smashes the ladder over Duff's back.

McDaniel: “Holy crap! Warren might've ruptured a disc with that shot! Duff looks to be in a LOT of pain! Both men are bleeding! This is madness!"

Rentfro: “This is what they both wanted!"

ODDY grabs Duff by the head and nails a few punches on him. He throws Duff on his back in the middle of the ring. ODDY lays a chair on top of Duff and climbs the ropes. He reaches the middle turnbuckle, and then the top.

McDaniel: “Wait a second...Duff's moving! He's to his feet now!"

Rentfro: “Warren doesn't know that yet!"

McDaniel: “He does now! Warren tries to come off the top rope with a clothesline... "

CRACK!

Rentfro: “HOLY SHIT! Duff just nailed Warren with a horrible chair shot! Warren looks knocked out!"

ODDY is out cold, laying on the mat. Duff looks on him with shocking eyes, not even quite sure about what he's done. He drops to his knees and covers.

1...

2...

3!!!

DING DING DING!

Eric Emerson: “Ladies and gentlemen... the winner of this match, DUFF COTE D'IVOIRE!!!

McDaniel: “Warren still isn't moving. EMTs are out there attending to him, they're putting him on a stretcher. This is horrible."

Rentfro: “I don't know if he'll be able to return for Rampage next week, or maybe at all... Jon. That looks very serious."

McDaniel: “We'll keep everyone up-to-date on Warren's situation as it progresses through the night. Commissioner Joe BoXeR is not going to be happy about this."
