Episode 5 Promos

William King:

"Kelley, Kelley, Kelley. You made a big mistake, going after my title. You see like I said last week, those three minutes didn't matter. We were both in that ring for over forty minutes, half of that focused on beating the hell out of each other. I beat you, and decisively at that. All those three minutes do is let you claim that you could have won, and maybe the gullible and stupid would believe you and consider you a possible rightful champion.

But now, I will remove all doubt. I will do as I did the last time we met: Take you all across the Proving Ground and beat you so bad you'll be calling me 'Mommy Dearest'. It will be so violent, what my Queen did to Iron XX will look quaint by comparison. I am going to torture you, Kelley. And it will be all your fault."

Alex Kelley:

"You know, I got to be give it to Mongo, he's as tough as he is ugly. I mean, when I hit him with that first AK-47, he got right back up like a goddamn movie monster. But he didn't get up from AK-47 number two, and that's what really matters doesn't it? But it just demonstrates why I know I can beat William King and claim the Openweight title. He'll need three seconds to pin me. I need one second to kick his head off."

Harland Sanders IV:

"Mongo might have a concussion. That's just great. Well you know what Kelley? An eye for an eye may make the world blind but it'll be worth it to hear you scream. I am offering ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS, American, to the person or persons who can put Kelley in the hospital. That's all, I'm done."

Episode 4 Reactions + Tag Tournament Brackets

William King:

"My conquest was inevitable.

The fact that I was number eight was of no consequence. I could have been at number one and it would have made no difference. Well... no, if I had been at number one idiots like Jonny Jones wouldn't have lasted as long as they did. But like William of Normandy took a broadsword in hand and fought his way to conquering England, so I cut a bloody swath of destruction on the seven delusional fools who stood in my way to my throne.

I will watch as the rest of you fight over the scraps that is the tag team title, and see who is next to fall lifeless to my feet.

But what I'm looking forward to more, is what will come next week. Because next week... you'll see what my Queen can do in the ring."

Alex Kelley:


"Three minutes, and three seconds. Those are the two things that kept me away from the Openweight title. William King was three minutes fresher than me, and he managed to get my shoulders down for three seconds. But, I submit that if it was me who drew number eight, the result would have been far more different. No, I submit that if we fought one on one, I would have been the one on top..."

He's interrupted by Harland Sanders IV and CHICKEN CLUB.

HS: "Cry me a river, Kelley. Because YOU had a three minute advantage over my walking engine of destruction Mongo, and King had SIX. Put my monster against you or King... or the both of you... on even terms, and Mongo would be openweight champion, not your wannabe supermodel ass."

AK: "Funny, I remember you were just as confident when I kicked Black Cyborg's circuits in, how'd that go again? Oh no, wait, I know what you want. You want me to see if I can kick Mongo's head so hard his ugly face will be something more photogenic. I mean, I don't mind doing that, but hell all you had to do was ask nicely."

HS: "Really funny, Kelley. You won't be cracking wise once Mongo breaks your jaw and the doctors have to wire it shut. And we won't have to wait long, Kelley, because I just got off the line with PGCW matchmakers. Next week is you and Mongo, one on one, for the first shot at the Openweight Title."

AK: "And I was worried I'd have to earn that shot. You're on."

Kelley puts on sunglasses and walks off, leaving CHICKEN CLUB to strategize for next week.

Episode 3 Reactions + Rules For Victory Road Announced

Risky Business:

DD: "Last week we overheard Ken Archer and Jim Rival calling themselves the two most dangerous individuals in PGCW, and with them being the other registered tag team here, we felt we needed to give them the news."

EA: "They fancy themselves Florida's premier tag team, we've heard them call themselves that in other shows in the state, but apparently they didn't remember about us."

DD: "See you guys are great individual wrestlers, we don't argue that, but two great individuals can't beat a great tag team, that's what we are, and that's why we're focusing on tag gold instead of the Openweight title."

EA: "Drop some MATH on them, Danny."

DD: "Yeah... see, you guys may be five out of five wrestlers, you put that together as a pair of individuals and you get ten. Now we may not be the best singles guys, maybe a pair of fours, but you put my four, and Eric's four together, and we make sixteen, because we're a team and we don't add to each other's strengths, we multiply them."

EA: "MATH."

DD: "So you better hope Ken Archer wins the Openweight title, because if you step into our turf, we're going to subtract teeth from both your mouths."

EA: "That means you'll lose them!"

Johnny Jones:

"What's the deal with my move being called Vanilla Rain? Well, my dad likes to drink after work, and his favorite drink is called a Vanilla Rain... basically, it's vanilla vodka and Mountain Dew. Now I know, how do I know that if I'm under twenty-one, well my old man had me make it for him now and again while he went to unwind from a tough day. Now around this time, I had this haircut that made me look like Vanilla Ice, cause I'm a teenager and I'm in high school, and people would respond by calling me Vanilla Ice. Which I took in stride, I laughed about it... anyway I spent my summers working at a local radio station, and the late night DJ got married, so they had me take over. Well I told my friends about it, they didn't believe me, so I wanted a name that they'd know was me to remove any doubt... I picked DJ Vanilla Rain, and that became my nickname for the rest of high school.

"But enough about that. I had a great time, great match, I feel really good about my chances next week. Lots of tough competition but, hey, I didn't come here for easy trips to the pay window, I wanna make a name for myself and this is the place to be to do it in. If you're a fan of me from before, thanks for getting me on this side of the Gulf Coast, if you were a fan now thanks for your support, and if you're not a fan of me, well... hopefully one day I'll win you over and you'll be chanting 'Go Johnny Go' with the rest."

Murder Dragon and Spider Jack:

The two didn't speak, but they did run into each other backstage, after exchanging a long glance, they shook hands, and Jack patted Dragon on the back as they headed off.

PGCW President Walter Cranston:

"Now that our qualifying competitors are set, I'm ready to formally announce the rules of Victory Road. We're going to be taking our qualifiers and put their names in a hat, drawing them in order. The first two will start the match, at the three minute mark, number three will come out, then at the sixth minute number four, and so on until all eight men are in the match. No countouts, DQs will be in effect, pin and submissions as well. No over the top rope. Last man left, he'll be our Openweight champion."

Episode 2 Reactions: Arch Rivals, Harland Sanders IV, Scott Saphyre

Arch Rivals:

KA: "Yeah, I fought dirty against my own tag partner. So what? I fight dirty against everyone. He knew it was going to happen, right Jim?"

JR: "It's true. Besides, even if I didn't, who cares? We're not friends, our partnership, it's all business. As long as one of us gets the Openweight title, we become that much more in demand as a tag team."

KA: "That's right. We don't respect ANYBODY, not even each other, and I'm willing to gouge out the eyes and kick the balls of my own tag partner, well, you can only imagine what I'll do in Victory Road."

JR: "Archer and I are the most dangerous men in PGCW. He won because he can hit Archer's Arrow at any time, with deadly accuracy. I forgot that for one second, and that one second he capitalized on. No excuses. Next time might be different, but this time, he earned it, just like he'll earn the glory in two weeks time."

KA: "BULLSEYE!"

Harland Sanders IV:

"What you saw tonight is exactly why Black Cyborg accepted my services, and why everyone in PGCW will want to be part of CHICKEN CLUB. I took this man, this monster Mongo, who was rotting in a loony bin, and I turned his rage into a well-oiled machine of DESTRUCTION! That fat loser Megaton will be eating his meals through a straw! If they even sell solid food at whatever stupid comic book convention Megaton crawled out of. I don't know if they do, I'm not a loser like that fat nerd Megaton. I'm a WINNER. Mongo, is a WINNER. Black Cyborg, he's a WINNER. And we're going to take all the winners, bring them into CHICKEN CLUB, and take over Florida. CHICKEN CLUB, BABY!"

Scott Saphyre:

"Man, Wrecker Jr wanted to advance real bad didn't he? Usually I hit Death Wears Blue and the match is over. I hit him with it, and he kicked out. So I figured, 'Maybe I didn't do it right, maybe I didn't get the snap I usually do'. He's a big guy, and when big guys fight you even with leverage it's hard to heft em up the way you want to. So I winded him with a moonsault, hit em with another DWB and it felt like a perfect one. And he kicks out of that too and I'm like, "well hell, I KNOW I hit that one right! Now what?". I considered a submission, but at this point of the match my palms were getting wet, he was sweating, lights are really hot here in the Proving Ground and I knew I had to have it on TIGHT to make Wrecker tap.

"So I waited for him to make a mistake, and whatever his opening set himself up for, that's what I'd use. He wanted to suplex me, but he was tired, and was trying to lift his leg up to get some extra oomph in his hips to lift me. Well, that was the mistake, and it just happened to be perfect for another Death Wears Blue. It's a good thing he didn't get up from that one, I don't think I could have done a fourth! Tough guy, looking forward to tangling with him again. But for now, it's on to the Openweight title. Winning my first belt, in my own hometown? That'd make it all worth it, you know?"
