Jacob Trance

I’ll take it!

The dynamic of the Owen Reese feud has been difficult in all honesty. Reese is one of the biggest baby faces in the company, he’s blue eyes through and through, but he’s against an honorable but passionate foreigner. Is Owen the heel? Possibly in the US of A, but he got under Reese’s skin and in his head. Reese has been sharper, meaner, heck, he lost his head and took a swing. I’m amazed that’s not being picked up on more. Also how deep are these bags y’all have lads? I need a new one for my football stuff as my boots stink.

This isn't the show submission section

He called Sue fat, what a monster.

The bustle of the Anniversary Show packing up continues to go on. In a side room we can see Jacob Trance being seen to by the OCW doctor. He's receiving stitches just above his orbital, but he doesn't seem pleased about it. Trance: See... These things happen, when you've been around as long as we have you don't dwell, you don't get in your own head over it... You shrug it off... The doctor continues putting stitches in but then backs up slowly, Trance's side eye getting the better of him. Trance: To put it bluntly, you find a new way to the top of the mountain... And I can promise you this, we will climb whatever route is necessary. Tony... We're not done, you can move on, you can fight other challengers, you can celebrate, tonight you earned it. Jacob chuckles and pulls out the stitches with a grimace, tossing them to the floor. Blood once again flows freely down his face and into his beard. Trance: We are not dead and we will not go away... The door has begun to open. OCW... We will find the way. Trance stands, looking towards the cowering doctor, stopping to just stare. He rolls his shoulders and leaves, disappearing into the bustle in the corridor.

The camera comes to life, sat facing the camera is OCW Hall of Famer, Jacob Trance, the opponent of Antonio Everett this weekend. He will be contesting for the CCW championship at the 17th Anniversary Show. As he speaks, his gaze lingers to the slight left of the camera, only occasionally flickering to meet the lense. Trance: We would like to take the moment to thank you for your time, for options to let us in to your home and mind. It’s a lot easier to do things this way, clearly and up front, instead of dealing with that drilling buzz in the background. Trance shifts slightly. Trance: They say that when an animal is at its wits end, when it’s wounded it backed into a corner it lashes out, making it ever so easy to see what it wants in that instance. Tony, Tony, Tony, do you think this matches up with what they’ve been doing? Does it match up with what we have planned ahead? Trance shakes his head. Trance: I say no to that notion, but it’s not for us to decide something so trivial. Now, the grandest of motions… Yes, in that we will all serve and play our part which brings us to that word… Respect. We see respect as some sort of trinket to wave around, we use the term, to put it lightly, to make people give a fuck about us. To make them feel better, to acknowledge one another as equals. We’re not equals Tony, none of us are. Trance laughs. Trance: That’s not say either one of us is better than the other Tony, it’s our differences, our varying characteristics that make this all worthwhile. When we started out this little journey you were wanting to injure, put us all onto a bad path. Trance shifts again. Trance: The path we walk is neither good or bad, but it is littered with our decisions, our failures, our success stories and our indecisions. When you reach the end of the path, there is a door, behind it… We can’t stand for certain, but all you have to do is knock. And Tony… Jacob leans forward and looks wildly to the right of the camera, a wry little smirk adoring his face. Trance: We are ready for you to knock on the door Tony… Trance raps his knuckles three times on the chair, loudly. Trance: That’s all it’ll take… Then… It opens… We’ll see on Sunday just what story we can tell…

The scene opens in a well lit room, it’s almost too well lit. A blinding white light burns everything the same colour, that is until a television screen turns on. With its sudden burst into life, the lights are killed, the pale light from the video the only source of illumination. On it, is repetitive footage of John Carter being buckle bombed in Jacob Trance’s first match back, the screen changes again, this time showing the chokeslam he delivered to the CCW Champion, Antonio Everett. The TV screen dies as suddenly as it came to life, the lights of the room return, only less harsh. A rattling breath accompanies it as a figure sits on a lone chair, smoking a cigar. The figure is that of the mastodon, Jacob Trance. Trance: Why… Why… Why… Why… It’s just one of those redundant questions at this point, it’s like you're building a very boring wall, brick, by brick, by brick. The thing about walls is that there’s always the chance someone barges their way through it, just like I barged my way through the orderly queue waiting to face good ol’ Tony. Then there’s all these rumours, these innuendos and accusations as to why I’m not interfering in my son’s business. Jacob chuckles. Trance: It’s his business, that’s your simple answer. I’m sure he’ll be fine, everyone else has to go it alone, so he’s nothing different. The Tony thing though, I suppose I should give you all some sort of explanation, even though it’s obvious I’m bored training the next generation and I’m just greedy for championship titles. Though… There’s probably another reason, something underlying… That true reason that you’re all wanting to hear. Jacob drops his cigar, grinding it into the floor with his foot to extinguish it. Trance: I mean, why did I show up on Ambition… Was it pent up frustration? Anger? Was it a message that made me try to wipe John Carter off of the face of the earth? Maybe it’s all linked, maybe it’s not… What do the numbers mean, all of that jazz… However… I’ll give you an answer on RIOT… Jacob stands and goes to leave, the camera pans and follows him through the door. Trance: Or maybe I won’t… Maybe I won’t even show up, guess you’ll need to see how it plays out… The door clicks shut, the lights dim, and the television comes back to life, simply repeating the tape from before as the scene fades out.

He's in a coke-body cast and using other people to do his bidding right now. PLent of bodies around without me flopping about.

The scene opened at the Lord Archer of Mercy Hospital in Brooklyn in one of the fanciest private rooms you’ll ever see. In the bed, wearing a full body cast and looking suspiciously high is Thomas Archer. All around him are various machines, including a ventilator that whilst beeping and working away are quite clearly not connected to Mr Archer. Around him, are the assembled remnants of the United Archer Enterprises, Maxx Edwards and the Dreadnought of Drogheda, Colby McCallum. Archer eventually begins to speak, sounding like he’s at death's door. Archer: You all witnessed the violent and unprovoked attack unleashed upon me by The Stooge. The doctors say I’ll definitely walk again but what do they know? I’m determined to prove them wrong, to rise out of this bed and put others in my place. For now though… Archer sighs, no one corrects his sentence. Archer: I must give you all tasks, tasks that I am unable to do. Maxx, I give to you an important one. You see that there… Archer points, the camera swivels to what looks like a volume control knob sat on a pristine plinth, cushioned by the softest of red velvet. Archer: That is the control knob for the bomb in Just Derek’s neck. It goes up to eleven and it’s important that at least four times a day you use it to fuck with him, if you go up to six it will just be mild annoyance. Up to eight is pain, increasing all the way in levels up to eleven, at which his brains become modern art. If it wasn’t for The Stooge I’d be cranking so hard on that knob right now… Maxx just blinks as Archer turns his attention now to Colby. Archer: And to you… My champion, since coming back you have struck the iron while it’s hot, they can’t deny you or your legacy for much longer. That is why I have a task for you and a target, the target will allow you to watch the enjoyment drain from the audience's eyes. It’ll allow you to stop them being sports entertained and tap deeper into their dislike of someone that knows who they really are. You’re no man’s puppet, and it’s in the envelope on my bedside. Archer yawns. Archer: I grow tired, please collect your inheritance and go. Archer feigns sleep, both of his comrades collect their gifts, Maxx taking more care of his than Colby’s simple letter. As the door closes Archer can be seen peeking to make sure no ones watching and proceeds to take a bite out of the body cast, revealing that it’s most likely a different type of plaster all together. The door clicks, and the pair now outside begin to converse.

Tres Dus Uno! Matches Mugen versus Cort Some fun stuff and some frustrating stuff in which Cort forgets that at some point he's meant to try and win the match. When chickenshit gives you chickenshit you sometimes have to try and make chicken salad, this in itself delivered a fun throw away match and, you can call me bias, but I guarantee this would have been far more enjoyable than anything else that could have happened. Nate vs. Rust I enjoyed this, the weird whiffing, Nate attacking the ring, the ref, the turnbuckle being attacked just made me chuckle. I'm not sure why when Rust was kicking out he stopped getting momentum, but it's whatever. He got it from normies but not off of finishers, maybe the game is just retarded. I think we're at a point now were anyone that's a good handler will pretty much be capable of having the main event 2k19 match. That's not a slight, we're just sort of stuck in a loop in which the game causes these patterns. Solid match with an ending that brings the Dominion family all happy and back together. Wholesome feel good ending. Horse vs. Mac I didn't enjoy this. They spent forever in the same spot outside of the ring, doing the same reversals and near misses on the table. Which is fine, it's their gimmicks, but LMS just doesn't work under some people. These are two people it didn't work under, and it's fine. Matches like this happen. I chuckled at Horse in-out-faking a guy with zero reversals who had also been majored. Just fucking hit him with the move and end it. I messaged the two guys with a warning on the match, so I fully believe they took it and done the best they could with a convoluted match type. The build and the videos leading up to this far outweighed the match. Again, that's at no fault of either handlers, you done your best, the match itself just wasn't for me.

This is quite possibly the worst review of all time. “Tell me you didn’t really watch the show without telling me you didn’t really watch the show.”

There's an audible buzz in the room, the press have gathered, summoned by Thomas Archer, maniacal rich man. They’re anticipating something, anything, possibly more absolute lunacy. The man in question sat centre left, paying no attention as he thrashed away at a Solid Gold Gameboy he got from the jewellery store. Archer: I see you stalking me! Damn it! No! I died Archer looks up from the handheld with a sigh, placing it on the ground. Archer: I suppose now I have to get the show on the road and actually interact with you animals. Archer snaps his fingers and some roadhands bring out not one but three additional chairs. Finally, out walks the son of OCW Hall of Famer Aries, Colby McCallum, flanked by three unfamiliar faces. The three unknowns ham it up whilst Colby calmly takes his seat to the left of Archer whilst the unknowns stand behind the duo. Colby: Yer probably wonderin’ who these strapping’ lads are behind me… They’re my fight time, so let’s be lettin’ the cat outa the bag and get to introducing’ them. The camera zooms in on the smallest one, his jacket says Jay FX. Colby: This right here is the greatest cut man in the business, if he had been in Apollo Creed’s corner that ham and egger wouldn’t be six feet unda! This is Jay FX. Jay FX pumps his fist and the camera moves up to the tallest of the two. His name tag says “Mittens.” Colby: Speakin’ of boxers. This is the man responsible for Tyson Fury’s unending line of destruction, this is Brian Malone, but you can just call him Mittens, ‘cause that’s all you’ll ever see comin’. Finally, we move to the man in the knee brace, his shaved hair and demeanour make him look like he’s ready to burst into a fit of rage at any moment. Colby: This is Adam VanHelms. Grappling expert, Kong Grip Tape doesn’t have anythin’ on him. Once’s he’s got you, he’s got you. Archer clears his throat. Archer: And the crown jewel, The Dreadnought of Drogheda, this boy does everything. He can handle anything, and most important of all… He’ll fight everyone. What you’re expecting this weekend isn’t what you’re getting. There’s not going to be a triumphant legend, there’s no wrong being righted for Telos. The bell is going to ring then it’ll ring again at the end, with our hands being raised. Colby smirks. Colby: And that winnin’ bonus on top of the cheddar we’re being paid to talk to you donkeys will be well spent. Archer smiles and rises from his chair. Archer: Do we have any questions? A lot of journalists raise their hands, but the party all rises. Archer: None? I guess you all understand for once, thanks for listening, that’ll be all if we have no further questions. The group leave to a chorus of boos from fans that got in and a lot of scathing looks from the journalists given the cold shoulder.

FIRST.

Before I get into the meat of the sandwich I just want to say thanks for the kind words with the content I had a hand in this week writing wise. The Justice Inc guys usually just wind up with me dumping a document on them and going "so we're doing this [ridiculous scenario here]" and they let me run with it and add their own individual styles and interactions. It makes it all come together really well, it's fun working with people that just leave you to fling stuff at them. As for the Mike stuff, again, getting to quarterback and get so many receivers to throw to is fantastic. Even when guys aren't available for whatever reason they're buying what I'm selling setting wise which is why we're getting such wild and elaborate stuff that's a stramash that clicks for everyone's characters. Hey, even got a cameo from The Steve which involved a Discord phone call to pitch it and see what he wanted to do with the RP. Also, I fucking love metaphors, even if they're technically self depreciating, and that's why you got the fly line. I digress. 3. 2. 1. ----------------------- RP1 - I'm going to go with Just Derek because his RP hasn't had much attention yet. It's very interesting because his character speaks with the same cadence in my head as the handler actually does, even the pacing of his sentences just clicks that way. It connects with OWEN and Fraser in a way that seems logical, a wolf warning, perhaps, another wolf that Fraser isn't a sheep. Couple of derps in this, but if you just read it without taking note, everything stands up well. RP2 - I'm going to go with Quartz foreboding wall of text (at first glance) but then it's plain sailing and well spaced out with appropriate pauses. He does a good job of both of talking up, and talking down KD. It's that fine balance you need to tread, especially as a bad guy. A bad guy should never totally build up the face as this amazing talent that's unstoppable. You always need to leave the good guy slightly downtrodden, especially if it's someone like KD. We all know he's not a loser, or whatever, but the better than you sthick means if the come-uppance happens... Well, hah, fuck you Quartz. RP3 - Quite enjoyed Mac's RP, although he was protecting Tre, who fucked off ahead instead of making any comments about his own match before leaving Mac to it. Would have liked to see something from Tre to then leave Mac to go off on his rant once he had reached the safety of the locker room. Video1 - It's going to be done to death, but for me the cell phone video was so fun and well done. Good After Effects / Fireworks edit on it too with the flames. Video2 - Dejour video. Great placement of the text boxes and addresses the fact that Jehst is a factor in the whole angle. Dane gets heat, Dillinger gets heat. A this rate we're going to wind up with Reese, Cort and Jehst taking on Dane, CG and Parca in some sort of FACTION WARZ if this keeps up. Except Parca will be dead come the end of Consequence. (Special shout to the mind-games video which I feel was the best video RP on the show, but I wanted to talk about the others. The super creepy deep fake video is probably the best bit of production, but again, wanted to talk about other stuff.) Match 1 - Mantis vs. JD. So this match got a bit of poop hurled at it for outside forces... So Derek winning with the horse stomp was a bit iffy but then it's followed up by a lights out, Horse in affair resulting in... Well, a horse stomp. I really hope that when other people do Matteo's video editing they leave in his garbled and broken English, as that's 100% a part of his character and needs to be preserved at all costs. "Pony Boy" popped me, although Mantis vs. Mac in an ER match sounds messy... But hopefully it's in a good way. Thanks for reading.

http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-WOMENS_TITLE.png So it's the main event... And it's Empress versus Terra... Emp has been impressive lately, but I'm going to have to give it to the quite obviously insane and evil (Aerith was right) Terra. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-CCW_TITLE.png It's always the easiest defences that come back to haunt you... We've all repeatedly slept on Elliott, and we have had a habit of sleeping on Tony's shock loss opponents... So I'm going to doom Parker here, and say he's going to win this one. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-OCW_TITLE.png It's in-game resilience versus in-game stick ability, and it's going to be very, very close. A huge part of me wants KD to win the big one and saunter off into the garden as champion but I just can't look past Quartz right now. So he gets my pick. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-CAINEvsH20.png I bet against H20 last time, and technically he didn't show up, so I'm going to go with that bet again. Caine to take it then drink beer all over the place, because water sucks. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K1-DANEvsCORT.png Racially Ambiguous Scott Hall against the American Bald Eagle. And Dillinger will be at ringside, but maybe, just maybe, his Hollywood buddy will be there to even the score. Again, fairly close but with Dane's time being spent mainly on PS4 as of late I'm going to go with... Cort! Marshall! http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-WATTSvsORTIZ.png Interesting one this, if Danny can play his cards right he can exploit Nate's weaknesses, but that big ol' resil is going to be a tough one to overcome against someone that is usually good for one kick out. Plus, I fully expect Nate to just watch all those Act of Violence whiffs then dump the kind on his head. So I'm going with Nate. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-LHW_TITLE.png Kass built his last big run off of tactical victories within multi-man matches, so I'm going to automatically pick him. http://ocwfed.tv/recapppv/Consequence%202021/cards/CQ2K21-EPvsM.png My prediction...

Yeah I made a mistake doing the card prediction. It’s definitely not allowed but it looks like it’s fallen out of the handbook.

MAIN EVENT SECRET WARZ AGAIN - Someone gets pinned! VETERAN CHALLENGE MATCH A.C COBRA vs. TOBIN FROST - Nice to see Tobin back, he was always my favourite Theo CAW. I’m obviously going to pick him as well for that reason. Enjoy the Tobin Bomb gamer dude. ODD COUPLE TAG CONTENDERS SERIES! COLIN LOCKE & K'DANGELO vs. IJITU QUARTZ* & TRE GOLDEN* - Interesting one this, there’s no break ups but KD has a free kick out… Quartz and Golden I think on the day can put perform the other two. I’ll stick my neck out and go with Colin and KD though, specifically after Quartz abandons Tre for not “carrying his weight.” A COMING OF AGE BATTLE! DANNY WATTS vs. THE LAST BLACKSMITH - This’ll be interesting, but I don’t think Danny will be able to combat TLBS and his eclectic style, so I’m going with the one, the final, the last horse tits. FUG IT! JUST DEREK vs. THE MANTIS - I said I wouldn’t bother with Mantis content until it becomes apparent he actually gets involved in the community instead of just his own thing, but I don’t want to do Derek dirty. So I’ll basically just watch Derek. WHEN IT RAINS ITS INSANE KOTA RAIN vs. HEATHER ANGELO - Zero idea, I reckon Heather wins though from a gut feeling.

CHAMPION vs. CHAMPION (NON-TITLE) JOHN CARTER* vs. TONY EVERRETT* - I reckon this’ll be something of a tactical battle of attrition, although I do think JC will just about sneak it with the running finisher and ruthless use of his finisher button. CONGRATULATIONS! CAKE OR DEATH! EVELYN PARKER vs. EMP* - Evelyn Parker, Queen of Suplexes to pick up a victory with her finisher, that isn’t a suplex. F.E.D.S MAGAZINE DREAM MATCH! TELOS vs. TRE GOLDEN* - This’ll be interesting actually, Telos is just getting back so I’m going to give the nod to Tre YOU DONE IT NOW YOU GONE AND MADE A BIG MISTAKE! CHRISTIAN GARCIA vs. H20 - I’m not sure, really. I think H20 has more than enough to get it done, but I could see some shenanigans. I could also see H20 botching a dive and eating a finisher as a direct result. TAG TINGS A.C. COBRA & TY SPARKS vs. THE WRESTLING CLUB - A huge match considering the recent change of the tag team landscape. I’m going to go with Cobra and Sparks. ROOKIE & THE WEIRDO OWEN vs. MATHIAS DUPLOOY - Going into this blind, I reckon Duplooy will win this one but Owen gets his heat back post match.

We are merely hours before the start of Turnoil Plus Ultra, the final show before the grandest granddaddy of them all, Wrestlution. For some reason we are in the parking lot, a wide eyed, suspiciously hyped up Thomas Archer can be seen whacking trash cans of varying sizes with a metal rod. Archer: Morrison… Come out and play, I’m right here Mikey boy! Archer takes a breath as a man in a ski-mask appears. He’s not your average goon, he very much has a presence and look about him. The big man leans down and whispers something into Archers ear and he gets excited. Archer: Where?! Show me! The masked man leads Archer round the corner to confront what is quite clearly Nicholas Maximus in facepaint. Archer: Mad Man Maximus! I knew you’d be here, amongst the trash, like a giant orange catfish! Maximus doesn’t respond, upon closer inspection it would appear he has been bound and gagged. As Archer approaches, genuine fear slips into his eyes. The masked man gives a nod and turns his back, standing guard at the entrance of the alley. The camera very, very quickly pans up to the sky before blows can be seen. Unfortunately muffled screams and fleshy thumps make it through the audio channel before the feed is cut off.

Thomas Archer can be seen laughing, looking at his tablet, he hands it off to Maximus before sitting down. Archer: Lo' and behold... Sad Michael Morrison has once again failed to show up... Do you know what that is? Do you understand what he is? He is nothing more than a bitch coward from a bitch made era. An era in which substandard competitors and characters made their name solely because they were the only people around at the time. Archer scoffs. Archer: He is the epitome of participation, he is a walking, talking, breathing 'thanks for coming' trophy. Whereas now you can work, and work, and work and find yourself with nothing, you can bleed in that ring every week and find yourself shunted down the pay grade because some walking corpse needs a pay day. Archer shakes his head. Archer: That's not me. You might call me some trust fund bitch, but let there be no denying it... I go in that ring and I work my ass off for every cent that Jaysin Clinton Sensation pays me, it might not be as much as I want, but it's enough. It's enough for me to go out there and bust my hump to be hated by all of these stupid sweat hogs. It's enough for me to stand here and just smile, to just smirk because yet again Sad Michael Morrison didn't get the memo, he didn't realise he's in for a fight against me. Archer smirks. Archer: I'm not some rich little sheltered man-child like you all seem to believe, I am a world class athlete, I am a wrestling genius. I might not win all of the time, but that's the throw of the dice. If you opt to underestimate me... Well... You'll wind up walking funny for the rest of your sad life, ask Wrex. However... I'm bored of Tiriple M, I'm bored of standing up here and trying to justify why I'm going to send him back to retirement, what I want to let you know is... I have a new friend, a new client that you're all going to meet soon, and... He's been dying for his time to come and that clock... It's almost done ticking.

The Jordan RP is indeed real lyrics. The first is a pop/punk band but the second one is Creedence Clearwater Revival, a relatively old rock and roll band that an older gentleman such as the judge would like. The Archer RP is entirely coincidence but plays off the old joke from years gone by that legends always show up for the last few shows prior to Lution to cash a pay day. Archer is an asshole so he brought it up along with mocking mental health sufferers. Mad Mike being in both those brackets.

What a manoeuvre

Perfectly fine to explain context if it’s something that’s been missed mangmang.

Page Four Spider Enough is enough and he’s not taking any more! TWC and Judge Brown Addresses the absolute trial and tribulations that one of their members had to endure at the Judges hands. Looks like we might get a handicap match? Not much way back for a team that loses one of those. So naturally TWC will accept it and lose. Valkyrie Valk continues the ongoing storyline with the HOF, preparing to announce her tag partner before being creeped upon by a weird producer that’s definitely going to jail. Page Five Spider and Quartz Quartz takes a dump on Cobra’s dreams whilst Spider watches. Wrex and Aisu More watching! This time of the match variety as Wrex and Aisu, perhaps ominously, hunker down in gorilla as the tag team title match entrances begin. Hopefully they don’t get involved in the match.

Hold on to your butts Page One Today’s review is brought to you by... ScotRail. For when you want a guaranteed delay to your journey, ScotRail! Spider gaslights TY If Sparks loses tonight, he’s out of Revolution. Then Spider will be kicked out, ushering in the era of the One Man Revolution, Quartz, only for Bobby Minio to come back for his moniker. Probably not but basically, don’t lose Sparks. Danny Watts / Colby McCallum Danny commits murder of my cousin. How are we going to go bowling now? B17 / Empress / Kass B17 is looking for Kassidy, Empress wants cake and Kassidy... Well he gets talked at by people that really do not seem sincere at all. It was like that time BP apologised for killing half the Mexican ecosystem. Judge Brown Judge respects Jordan. You don’t need to shake his hand, just don’t sleep on the Future Idiot. Page Two Quartz / Colin Locke Something about this felt off? Quartz isn’t the Booker but it felt like Colin was talking to him in that capacity. Outside of that, it was a decent interaction. Maybe I missed something on previous shows that would have explained it a little better. Darryl I haven’t learned your surname, so sue me. He’s a loser, baby, so why don’t you kill him. Good little build for his up coming match, I’m guessing Darryl has some punk elements to his personality going by this. Page Three Holly / Empress More cake. Holly comes to congratulate Empress but also sends a warning she’s coming for her championship. Cobra Cobra drops some truth and stands up for TY. Top guys don’t tear people down, they build them up. Hunter / John They’re not finished just yet, continuing on from the wrestling classic at the Clash, McIntyre is ready for another crack of the whip. Evelyn Evelyn once again breaks into Terra’s house and almost dies because of poisonous flowers. More pages later
