Shutdown Results (21/07/2008)

Dark Match
Trish vs. Stacey

The fans really got behind Trish in her battle against River Ace’s “personal” assistant Stacey and that’s exactly what it was, a battle. Stacey’s ever increasing repertoire of moves were displayed early on as she put pressure on Trish earning a couple of 2 counts using a DDT and a German Suplex. She also displayed her mat skills as well, using a variety of holds on Trish. Trish however, used her in ring experience to her advantage just when Stacey was starting to dominate. Stacey ran the ropes to try a clothesline but on the return journey Trish hit a Chick Kick out of no where and gained the 1.……2.…..3! She waved to the crowd at The Birmingham bowl as she made her way to the back.

The Saint vs Gerrie 'Hollywood’ Johnson
(written by hobo)

Backstage Gerrie is talking to Dr Necro.

HJ: so whats the saints condition?

Necro: He has severe spinal injury – anymore damage to his back and he could be paralysed for life! Or even DIE!

HJ: How cool would that be? The producers finishing off the saint!

Necro: I also believe that the Saint is suffering from double vision – a hit to the head could blind him…..for ever!

HJ…sciaeacf…..: Thanks doc….I’m gonna win this…

‘Movies’ by Alien Ant Farm plays and outcomes Gerrie to thunderous applause….He climbs in the ring and mimics a belt around his waist.

RJ: what is he doing? He really is one half of the dumbest team to step into the circ….Squared Circle.

DL: I like him…I think he has huge potential…and if he we believe the docs diagnosis (they look at each other) then Hollywood could win this!

‘St Anger’ plays and the former champ gingerly makes his way to the ring. The crowd show their appreciation for the PPV effort by Saint. He is holding his bandaged ribs and limps down to the ring and climbs in. The Ref signals and the bell is rung..

The early part of the match has Saint coming forward. Every time he gets near, HJ puts his body through the ropes. Saint shouts for Gerrie to come forward which he does, running at saint who steps aside and drop toe holds him. Saint slowly gets up and puts Gerrie in a quick STF.

RJ: this could be it!

Gerrie, still fresh from the weekend off manages to get a hand on the ropes which are nearby.

Saint releases and both men stand facing each other again. Once again, gerrie charges Saint but this time knows whats coming so sidesteps saint as well, bounces off the ropes and spears the commissioner, who lets out a loud scream. Gerry jumps up and starts kickking saint in the ribs as he lays on the floor.
DL: clever thinking from the Producer.

Gerrie can see the Saint writhing in agony, so he starts to walk around the ring milking the crowd applause. Meanwhile Saint is now up on one knee – gerrie spots this and applies a front headlock.

Crowd: Headlock! Gerrie! Headlock! Gerrie!

Saint starts to power up and the crowd get behind him. From the headlock position, he somehow find the strength to lift Gerrie into the muscle buster position.

DL: Hes hit it…but at what cost.

Both men are down, gerrie motionless, whilst the Saint screams in pain, holding his back. The referee checks both to see how they are – they both get up after about 30 seconds. Gerrie goes for a sidekick to Saints ribs again but its blocked and caught. Saint Sweeps the other leg and turns gerrie in the middle of the ring, turning the holding leg into a one leg boston crab.

Seconds later, Hollywood taps and Saint releases immediately. The Ref lifts Saints arm and he checks Hollywood. They leave the ring together to crowd cheers.

RJ: A good try by HJ there but still no match for the former champ.
