Keiji Sugawara vs Jason Fitzpatrick

[david]

The scene opens to a shot of the crowd, the camera pans around as the fans excitedly wave for those who may be watching them at home, the camera then cuts to the announce table where we see Dave and Johnny waiting to open t he show.

Dave: Welcome everybody to Monday Night Decimation! Boy what a show we have lined up tonight, and we start things off this week with Keiji Sugawara taking on Jason Fitzpatrick.

Johnny: Not a match that is going to steal the show by any means but hey there is a reason it's the opening contest. Keiji lucked out in last weeks contest but I doubt he has the same luck here tonight.

As Johnny finishes his thought Come as You Are by Nirvana blasts over the PA to the delight of the fans who begin to cheer wildly, a few moments pass and Keiji bursts from behind the curtain coming onto the top of the stage looking full of energy, he is wearing a pair of blue tights with a green dragon on them, blue elbow and knee pads, and a blue bandanna that is covering his left eye, Keiji snaps out a few fierce kicks getting huge pop before he stars his slow and steady trek down the ramp.

Belle: Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is your opening contest of the evening. Introducing first from Osaka, Japan standing five feet eight inches tall and weighing in at one hundred and eighty pounds he is KEIJI...SUGA...WARA!

Upon hearing his name being called Keiji raises his right hand into the air pointing a single finger at the sky, suddenly a woman's voice is heard calling to Keiji prompting him to stop in his tacks and turn around only to see a slightly heavy Japanese woman rushing at him, Keiji turns sllightly red as he yells the word "MOM!" The woman reaches him and gives him a big almost bear like hug before putting him down, they talk for a few moments amongst themselves in the middle of the ramp before Keiji turns back around and walks towards the ring his mother at his side. Keiji and his mother reach the bottom of the ramp and Keiji enters the ring whilst his mother goes and sits by the announce booth where she is caught by surprise when a headset is handed to her, she smiles and puts it on.

Johnny: Oh my god, what is this? Keiji had to bring mommy?

Yumi: Hey, you leave him alone. You know you aren't too big for me to take over my knee.

Johnny: *Muttering under his breath* Promises.

Yumi: What was that Johnny?

Johnny: *sigh*Nothing mam.

Dave: Oh my god I love it. I always wished there was a way to shut this guy up and now i know the secret, thanks a billion Mrs. Sugawara

The camera cuts back to the ring where Keiji is now stretching in the the corner, his mom yells to him and wave and he hesitantly waves back as his music fades away.

The sound of The Warrior's Code by Dropkick Murphy's begins to blare over the PA system. The fans in attendance do not make a reaction to the music as it is truly unfamiliar to them, this being due to the fact that the man who comes out to it no-showed last week. A few measures into the song, a young blond male pushes aside the entrance curtains and walks into view. He has a huge smile adorned across his face, and he is wearing green wrestling pants with black shamrock designs running down the length of them. He smiles to the crowd cornily, and then gives them a hearty wave, earning him a small bit of applause from them. This seems to encourage the man, and his expression changes to one of determination as he sets off down the ramp.

"Introducing next, hailing from Kilkenny, Ireland, he is the Shamrock....Jason Fitzpatrick!"

"We have not had the opportunity of seeing this young man wrestle yet, due to the fact that he did not show up to his match last week. However, our scouting reports make this kid out to be a great mat wrestler as well as an aerialist."

"Blah blah blah. I don't care what the scouting reports say! The fact is that this guy didn't show up last week. In my opinion, he shouldn't even get the opportunity to come out this week!"

Jason walks down the ramp rather quickly, making sure to smack the hands of any of the fans who happen to be holding them out. Near the bottom of the ramp, he picks up a bit of speed and then jumps into the air, clicking his heels together. This earns him a bit of laughs from the crowd and a bit more applause. Jason laughs to himself before returning his attention back to his opponent, Keiji, who is standing in the ring with a bemused expression on his face. Jason looks him in the eye and shrugs, showing that he could care less about what Keiji thinks. After a few moments of basking in his applause, the Shamrock begins on his way to the ring once more.

"This guy is all ready getting on my nerves. He doesn't take any of this seriously, and what the hell was up with the gay heel click thing? Seriously, I think I may have found a new friend for Ray White over on WNG in EVPW."

"Oh get over it Johnny. He's just having a bit of fun, and personally I like him. He's certainly entertaining for the fans, and that is good for ratings!"

"I don't care what either of you say, I still think my Keiji is going to win!"

Both Johnny and Dave look over at Yumi, having temporarily forgotten that she was with them at the announce table. They then look over at each other before simultaneously shaking their heads. Back at ringside, Jason Fitzpatrick is slowly circling around, making his way toward the steel steps. Once he reaches them, he quickly ascends them and then climbs between the top and middle ropes. Jason eyes his opponent, and then nods toward the referee, showing that he is ready. Jason walks over to his corner and awaits the sound of the bell to signal the contest, his eyes never leaving his opponent as his entrance music fades out.

..TBC..

The ref looks to the two men checking to see if they are ready before giving the timekeeper the signal to ring the bell, the sound of the bell resonates through the arena and Keiji and Jason slowly start towards one another. The two men stop just short of one another before quickly shaking and backing right back up and starting to slowly circle around one another, neither man looks to make any sudden moves anticipating that the other guy will jump first. After a few moments of this Jason shoots forward and locks his arms around Keiji's waist, he starts to power forward but Keiji bends his knees and pushes against him, he isn't able to hold out long however before Jason is able to make a forceful shove and knock Keiji to his back. Jason, who is now holding Keiji's legs, steps over his opponent causing him to flip onto his stomach, he then squats down on Keiji's shoulders forcing most of his weight down on the smaller man.

Dave Valiant effort from Keiji Sugawara to plant his feet and stay upright, but Jason just had the upper hand on him this time. If he can keep this hold on who is to say this thing won't end here and now?

Johnny: Yeah, knowing that little sissy he'll last all of a minute....but hey on the upside he won't have to go home to cry to hims mommy because she's right here.

Yumi: Now Johnny, what did I tell you about that? Besides I raised my little Keiji to be tough, he'll be able to withstand this move without a problem.

The Shamrock bears down on Keiji as Keiji grits his teeth and reaches desperately for the ropes, Keiji manages to somehow move just far enough forward to make Jason have to get up and attempt to readjust his position, when this happens Keiji powers forward and grabs the bottom rope prompting Jason to step away and waits for Keiji to get back to his feet. Keiji doesn't take much time at all to get up, he retunrs his focus instantly to Jason and nods slightly before slowly making his way towards Jason. Jason quickly throws his left foot out but Keiji spins out of the way and throws his right foot out whipping it around slamming his heel into the back of Jason's head staggering him into the ropes. Keiji turns back to face Jason and backs away as Jason pulls himself off of the ropes and turns around, Keiji stands his ground and gets his hands up in front of his face as Jason walks towards him, Keiji quickly snaps forward thrusting his right fist towards Jason, Jason however turns to the side and grapples Keiji's arms and falls to the mat, Jason locks his legs around Keiji's arm and then locks his arms under his chin and torques back.

Johnny: What in the hell is with all this submission crap? It's so damn boring!

Dave: Boring? Come on, what are you talking about boring, I happen to find a technical contest highly exciting.

Yumi: I couldn't agree more David. These tech moves make you think not only in terms of how do I put them on, but also how do I get out of them. It's smart wrestling no doubt.

Keiji kicks his feet behind him and tries to claw his arms but with no luck, Jason looks determined to make Keiji tap but Keiji resolutely fights against the urge to tap. Keiji flails his arms towards the ropes but isn't even close to making contact, being almost in the center of the ring. Jason seeing his move going nowhere decides to let go and roll up to his feet grabbing Keiji's hair and bringing him up with him. Jason places his hand on Keiji's back and shoves him towards the ropes, as he sees Keiji's back hit the ropes on the opposite side of the rind and bends down, as Keiji gets within a foot of Jason he drops to his back and scrapes the bottom of his boot across the top of Jason's head knocking him onto his back. Keiji quickly stands up and leaps into the air flipping himself backwards, as he is about to land on Jason however, Jason brings his knees up and Keiji's chest making him flop to the side and clutch his chest in pain.

Yumi: Oh no, my poor baby! I hope he's not hurt. I am going to have to remind him to ice that down later.

Dave: Yeah, that would probably be a pretty solid idea. Those knees can be such lethal weapons, but I am sure Keiji knows this as he likes to incorporate them into his arsenal every once in awhile as well.

Johnny: Yeah, ok, whatever. Come on, how much longer is this boring ass match going to drag on anyway? Who wants to see either of these two in the ring, seriously.

Both men lie on the canvas, Keiji squirming in pain and grasping at his ribs, Jason lying inert. The referee soon begins his count up toward ten, the magic number which would result in a double knockout. However, before he can even shout the number of two, Jason lifts his legs up and rocks forward until he has enough momentum to leap up onto his feet. As he reaches a vertical base, the referee's count is halted, and he signals for the match to continue. The Shamrock walks over to his opponent. However, as he nears the downed man, Keiji sweeps his legs around, connecting with the back of Jason's calves and knocking him onto his back. Keiji continues his spinning motion, carrying himself back up onto his feet, impressing the crowd and gaining a huge pop for himself. Keiji wastes not time and immediately begins running toward the ropes. As he nears them, he twists his body around, causing his back to press against them. The ropes stretch further and further before stopping for a split second and then shooting Keiji forward, back toward his opponent. Just before reaching the Shamrock, Keiji jumps slightly into the air, allowing his inertia to carry his body forward with his feet extended in front of him. They connect with the ribs of Jason, and cause him to begin writhing in pain.

"And now the action has really begun to pick up. Is this better for you Johnny? Perhaps now you won't be such a whinny little prick."

"I guess this is a little bit better. But I still hate watching these two wrestle. They barely look like either of them are out of their teens! I mean that Jason guy doesn't even look old enough to be wrestling."

"To be fair here, both of them are barely out of their teens. Jason is only twenty I believe, and my Keiji is only twenty-three."

Jason continues to hold his side where Keiji's boots connected. Keiji is now up on the nearest turnbuckle. He looks around at the crowd, and then toward his mother seated at the announce table. She blows him a big kiss, and he gives her a rather uncomfortable smile before leaping into the air. On the way down, Keiji positions himself so his knees will land first, and hopefully connect with the abdomen of the downed Shamrock. However, for a second time tonight, Keiji's high risk maneuver did not work out. Instead, Jason rolls out of the just as Keiji is directly above him. Keiji's knees crash hard into the canvas, and he bounces into the air. Immediately, pain rushes from his brain, threatening to cause Keiji to black out. However, he manages to remain conscious, and instead consents to hold his knees in pain. Both men are on the mat once more, and the ref begins counting yet again. One.....two.....three.....four.....five.....Before the count reaches six, Jason manages to roll over to the ropes and pulls himself up to a vertical base, halting the ref's count once more.

"Ha ha ha! Keiji crashes and burns once more! I hope he just suffered some type of career ending injury right there. I would love nothing more than to have this annoying little punk put on the shelf for a while."

"Hey! Nobody talks about my little Keiji like that!"

"Calm down Yumi. You'll get used to Johnny's ribbing eventually, though I would like to see you take him on. However, I don't think that is the best idea."

"Oh don't worry Dave. I'll get him later. Not now, but later tonight."

Back in the ring, Jason begins walking toward Keiji. As he reaches him, the Shamrock flips his opponent onto his stomach, causing his back to be exposed. Jason then sits on top of Keiji, this already making it uncomfortable for the smaller man. The Shamrock then grabs Keiji's left and right arms, crossing them under his own neck before pulling back. Immediately, Keiji begins struggling. However, this only makes it harder for him to breathe, and he quickly begins to fade. It appears as if he is about to pass out, and the ref soon abandons his attempts to ask Keiji if he wants to quit. Instead, he walks over and lifts up one of Keiji's boots, as both of his arms are in use in the submission hold. He lets go of it, and it flops limply to the canvas. The referee then shouts one out for all to here before grabbing the same leg and lifting it again. As he drops it this time, the same thing happens. It drops to the mat, and the ref then turns and shouts out two. The ref then returns to Keiji's leg, lifting it up for a final time. However, when he releases it, it does not drop, and instead hangs in midair. This causes the crowd to go into a frenzy as they know that their favorite is not done yet.

"I knew my Keiji had it in him to not go down this way! Come on baby, you can do it! Just get up!"

"Unfortunately it's not that simple ma'am. You see, Jason Fitzpatrick has that hold locked in tight, and it would take a tremendous amount of power to be able to get out of it."

"Hey Dave, I'm about to just go to sleep. Let me know when all of this boring submission wrestling is over all right?"

With the crowd backing him, Keiji seems to have found new life. He soon manages to rock over so his back is to the canvas, and Jason is pinned underneath of him. The ref soon realizes that this is a pin, and he immediately begins counting. One.....two.....Jason is forced to release his hold in order to get his shoulder up off the mat to avoid losing the match. The two men roll to opposite sides of the ring, grabbing onto the ropes almost simultaneously. They both pull themselves up and reach a vertical base. The two men look over at each other before nodding their respect, each having thrown everything the others way but not being able to take them down for the count.

OOC: No actually. Just in case you didn't know, I play as Demon on EVPW.

Keiji and Jason stand on opposite sides of the ring and listen on as the fans start cheering, showing just how into the match they really are, after a brief pause in the action however Keiji and Jason start towards one another once again. As soon as they get close enough to one another they both burst forward and engage in a collar and elbow tie up, the wrestlers both hold their ground but Jason is the one who comes out on top when he twists to his side and locks Keiji's head under his arm locking in a side headlock, Keiji however moves forward and shoves Jason chest first towards the ropes. Jason stops just shy of the ropes and turns around only to see Keiji rushing at him, Jason ducks at the last moment and pops up when Keiji reaches hi tossing him over the top ropes, Keiji manages to grab the top rope though and hangs off of them before hoisting himself up to the apron only to be knocked into the guard rail when Jason leaps into the air and plants his feet in Keiji's back.

Johnny:*Sitting back in his chair talking on a cell phone* Yeah...mhmm...ok got it. *hangs up phone and realizes Dave is staring at him* What? Oh right the "match" yeah, kind of boring so far.

Dave: Boring? Oh come on Johnny, this match is far from that. These two guys have been going at it hard from the opening bell.

Yumi: Very good so far, you are an idiot you know that Johnny? You see that dropkick just now, sent my little Keiji sailing into that metal rail, I hope he is going to be ok.

Keiji, who is hanging slightly off the guard rail now with one arm draped over it, looks out of commission as Jason looks on, the ref begins to slowly count working his way upwards towards ten but Jason has other plans as he slides under the bottom rope and heads for Keiji, he grabs his opponent and yanks him off of the railing before walking him towards the ring, he slides Keiji under the bottom rope making sure his torso is still on the outside of the ring. Jason slides back into the ring stopping the ref's count at five, he then climbs up to the top rope and steadies himself before leaping and driving his leg towards the chest of his opponent, however at the last moment Keiji rolls the rest of the way into the ring which causes Jason to land on the concrete below causing him to howl and roll around outside of the ring. Keiji sees this and grabs the middle rope using it to aid him as he stands, he looks down at Jason and backs away and waits patiently in his corner as Jason is now getting up using the apron to steady himself.

Johnny: See now that, that is good. Freaking moron totally missed that shit, and now look at him. Oh what next?

Yumi: Sure, he missed. But more important he tried, we can't all succeed in everything but at least we try anyway.

Dave: Yeah, I mean could you imagine what would have happened had he landed that big move? So he missed, he's still moving, this thing is far from over from the looks of things.

Jason slides into the ring and Keiji stands back and awaits his opponent to rise back to a stand, Jason doesn't take long to stand and catches a quick breather before turning his attention to his opponent, Keiji gets in a fighting stance and moves to mid ring as Jason follows quickly behind, Keiji snaps his leg out and lands his shin across The Shamrock's thigh making him wince but stay planted, Keiji does this again and again Jason stands his ground, Keiji goes to do this once more but Jason moves out of the way and leaps into the air flipping backwards and driving the toe of his boot into the back of Keiji's skull throwing him down to the mat. Jason showing his agility nips up and drags Keiji until he is positioned angled to the corner, Jason then climbs up to the top and leaps off, he positions the point of his elbow out in front of him and lands it squarely in Keiji's chest making him briefly double over, Jason then covers Keiji and the ref slides over and starts to make his count.

Yumi: Come on baby, come on kick out, do it for mama!

Dave: The elbow to the ribs, and Keiji is looking like he just got blasted with a ton of bricks, I don't think this is going to end it but it is damn sure going to come close.

Johnny: You think i'd get fired if I were to just run in there and attack one of those guys? I mean that would have to be a DQ right? *sigh* Yeah i'd probably get fired, just forget I said anything I guess.

The referee immediately slaps his hand down on the mat, causing the fans in attendance to shout out one as loudly as they can. His hand comes down and connects with the mat a second time as the crowd shouts out two simultaneously. As the ref's hand comes down for a third time, however, Keiji shoots his right shoulder up off the canvas, halting the referee's count and causing the crowd to go into yet another frenzy as this intense contest continues. Jason wastes no time arguing with the referee, but instead settles to throw him an angry glare before locking his left arm around the neck of Keiji. He pulls back, applying pressure and causing Keiji to scream out in pain. Jason begins shouting at Keiji to give up, and the referee gets close in, constantly asking the same question, "Do you want to quit?". However, he always gets the same answer, "NO!". It appears as if the rookie from Ireland is getting frustrated, and his momentary lapse in attention allows Keiji to begin moving up to a vertical base. Once there, he delivers elbow shot after elbow shot to the ribs of the Shamrock, forcing the headlock to be broken. Keiji then delivers a quick kick to the back of Jason's knee, forcing him to drop down a bit. After a moment of hesitation, Keiji runs forward, using Jason's knee as a stepladder, and delivers another kick to the back of Jason's head. Immediately, the Shamrock falls face first to the canvas. Keiji then goes for the pin, flipping Jason onto his back and pushing his shoulders to the canvas.

"Now Johnny, how could you possibly think that that is boring? I mean, the momentum of this match just shifted in about thirty seconds. This is good stuff!"

"Yea, good if you enjoy boring technical shit. Why can't these guys bring out some weapons and just start beating the shit out of each other. That would be a hell of a lot more exciting."

"But it would also result in the person using the weapons disqualification. Remember Johnny, this is only a regulation singles match."

In the ring, the referee has already reached a count of two, and his hand is coming back toward the canvas for a third time. A split second before it slaps down, Jason kicks his legs up and uses the momentum to fling his shoulders off of the canvas. Keiji looks over at the referee in disbelief, having thought that he was just moments away from finishing the match. The referee holds up two fingers, confirming to the Japanese Warrior that it was indeed only a two count. Instead of furthering the argument and making the mistake of allowing his opponent time to recuperate, Keiji returns his attention to Jason. In the time that Keiji wasted talking to the ref, Jason had begun to crawl toward the ropes, and now was hanging off of them, using them to pull himself back up. Keiji realizes his mistake and begins running toward Jason, ready to take him back down. However, Jason makes it to his feet, and ducks as Keiji reaches him. The Shamrock flings his opponent high overhead, causing him to fly over the ropes and land hard on the ground. Jason runs over to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs it, waiting for Keiji to get back to his feet. The Japanese Warrior pushes himself up, and turns toward his opponent. As he does, Jason leaps from his high perch and begins his quick descent. However, Keiji shoots his right boot forward as Jason comes down, and connect with his jaw. The forces of the kick causes Jason to flip over and land on his stomach. Almost simultaneously, Keiji falls back to the ground. Both men lie motionless as the ref begins his slow count up to ten.

"Come on Keiji, get up. You just hit Jason with that big move, now you need to get back into the ring so you can win!"

"I'm pretty sure that he can't here you right now. As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter how this match ends, as long as it does soon. Which means I'm hoping for a double count out."

"Now Johnny, that wouldn't make for a very entertaining ending! These two both need to get up and get back in the ring so that these fans can remain as entertained as they are."

Movement finally appears out of Keiji as the referee's count rounds the number five. The Japanese Warrior senses the danger of being counted out, and immediately begins to go to work. He lifts up his nearly unconscious opponent and pushes him under the ring ropes before crawling through himself, breaking the count at seven. Wasting now time, Keiji mounts the downed Shamrock and begins delivering swift punches to his head, driving him further and further away from full consciousness. However, the referee soon pulls Keiji away, protecting Jason from taking too much damage. Keiji allows himself to be pulled away, but then soon returns to the attack, lifting Jason up to his feet. The Japanese Warrior flings his opponent toward the opposite ropes, his back pressing into them before they force him back toward Keiji once more. As Jason comes back, Keiji begins running forward as well and stick out his right arm in hopes of connecting it across the chest of his opponent. However, the Shamrock ducks underneath the clothesline attempt and instead continues to run toward the ropes now in front of him. Keiji's momentum carries him forward as well, and the two superstars soon careen back at one another after bouncing off the ropes. This time, Jason leaps into the air, turning horizontal, and collides with Keiji, forcing him down to the mat. Jason rolls off of his opponent and looks out to the crowd before bending back over and lifting his opponent up. Jason tucks Keiji's head under his arm, setting him up for his signature Pot 'O Gold maneuver. However, Keiji manages to counter by instead lifting Jason high over head and slamming him back first into the canvas. Both men lie still on the canvas, the length of the match and its intensity obviously taking a large toll on both of them.

"Are you serious!? These two are both down on the ground again? That's it, I've had enough of this crap."

"Wait, Johnny! Where the hell do you think you're going!? Get back here!"

"Oh let him go, he was a party pooper anyway. Now, let's get back to the match, ok?"
