Elite TV Week One - Part One

The scene opens on a shot of an entrance ramp, surrounded by a crowd of loudly cheering fans.  “This Fire Burns” by Killswitch Engage plays in the background. After a few seconds it begins to fade out as you hear a woman’s voice start speaking.

Female Voice:

Hello everyone and welcome to Elite TV!  Samantha St. Claire here, along with my broadcast partner Abbie Storm!  We are just 24 hours removed from the biggest night of the year, Wrestlecade, and hachi machi Abbie, what an incredible night it was!

Abbie:

It sure was Sam!  My head is still spinning from everything that happened!  Titles defended, new champions crowned...

Samantha:

A lot did happen last night, and there surely will be a lot more happening tonight!  So let’s send it over to Tommy Harker to get us started!

The camera then pans to the ring, where a clean cut man in a nice suit is standing directly in the center.  He raises a mic to his lips.

Tommy:

The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

"Retrospect" by Rest, Repose begins playing over the loudspeakers.

Tommy:

Introducing first…..from Ashland, Ohio...SLADE EVEREST!!!

Slade made his way through the curtain and onto the ramp.  The crowd cheered as he flashed them a smile and made his way down the ramp.

Samantha:

Slade Everest is a relative newcomer to the sport of Professional Wrestling, but in the short time he has been here, he has done a great job of winning over the crowd here in the Elite Arena!

Abbie:

Yeah, he’s ok I guess.  I don’t know what it is, but he just hasn’t wowed me in the same way that he has done with you and everyone else.

As he climbed into the ring, Tommy raised the microphone back up to his mouth.

Tommy:

And his opponent…

"Retrospect" by Rest, Repose begins to fade out as “Erase My Scars” by Evans Blue starts playing over the loudspeaker.  The crowd began booing loudly.

Tommy:

From Salt Lake City, Utah…..”The Reaper”.....KEN CACHE!!!!!

Ken makes his way through the curtain.  He has an intense, expressionless look on his face as he makes his way down the ramp and towards the ring.

Samantha:

And here comes probably the most hated man in the building, Ken Cache.

Abbie:

He has a very cold, emotionless personality.  Very robotic. I love this guy!  

As Ken began climbing inside the ring, his music stopped abruptly, and “I Am The God” by Corroded began playing over the loudspeaker.  A disembodied male voice with a British accent could now be heard.

Male voice:

Hold on...Hold on….Hold on!

A man walked through the curtain and made his way out to the center of the stage, microphone in hand.

Samantha:

What the?

Abbie:

It’s General Manager Desmond Murphy!  What is he doing out here?

Desmond:

How is everyone doing this evening?

The crowd cheers loudly in response.

Desmond:

That’s wonderful!  I’m glad to hear it!  Well, I don’t want to take up too much time, but I have something I want to say, so I will make this brief.  I wanted to let you all know that I’ve organized a single elimination, eight man tournament to crown the first ever King of the Elite.

A loud round of cheers came from the audience.  Once the cheering died down, Desmond continued.

Desmond:

We will have one match each week for the next six weeks, with the final two competitors facing off at our next PPV, Fallout.  The winner of this tournament will get a title match of their choosing at the Bash at the Beach PPV!

The crowd roars with approval.  Desmond turns to leave, but then turns abruptly back around.

Desmond:

Oh yes...and one other thing.  That tournament starts tonight, and the first match is going to be….SLADE EVEREST vs. “THE REAPER” KEN CACHE!!!!

Desmond then walks off the side of the stage as the crowd cheers in approval.

Samantha:

What a bomb Desmond Murphy just came out and dropped on us Abbie!  

Abbie:

Hachi Machi Sam!  How exciting! I can’t wait to see who the rest of the participants for this tournament will be!
